ON THE AGENDA

Here are some of the items the commission will discuss tonight.

ST. JOACHIM’S PARISH APPLICATION

The commission will consider applications by architect Steve

Nevills, representing property owner the Roman Catholic Bishop of

Orange, to build a two-story classroom building and a

gym/multi-purpose building and to allow seven temporary modular

buildings to be used during construction.

The parish, at 1964 Orange Ave., is looking to expand to upgrade

the facilities, not to increase the number of students at the school,

according to the staff report.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Staff members recommend approval, with certain conditions such as

classroom windows facing residential properties being limited in

number and being made of frosted or opaque material.

TOWNHOUSE PROJECT

The commission will consider an application from John Garrison,

representing property owner ABCO Realty, to build a 26-unit

residential townhouse project with exceptions to certain requirements

of the zoning code.

The project calls for the 18 existing residences at 2013 through

2029 Anaheim Ave. to be demolished and be replaced by 26 townhouses.

Some of the exceptions requested are for higher building and

chimney heights.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Garrison is expected to request a continuance because staff

members recommend denial of the project, said Associate Planner Mel

Lee.

HOME EXPANSION

Nicholas Holmes, representing property owner Tony Guy, will ask

the commission to approve a second-floor addition for a home at 365

Ralcam Place. Holmes is requesting an exception to a requirement for

driveway landscaping, since none is proposed for this project.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Staff members are recommending approval because the project meets

the intent of the residential design guidelines and they are

convinced the exception for the driveway landscaping is justified.
