Rezone Application Operational Statement
The applicant proposes to construct a 32- unit multifamily apartment complex at 8715 N.
Chestnut Avenue, Clovis, CA 93619. APN 403- 532-28. The 2.11- acre rectangular property is zoned as RS-4 and would require a rezone to RM-1. Land Use designation of the parcel is Medium -Low Density . The parcel is within the Community Plan Area of Woodward Park.
The existing zoning limits the number of dwelling units on the property. A rezone would create additional housing opportunities for the residents of Fresno. This proposal would be advantageous to the surrounding neighborhood by creating a diversity of housing options. The design and features of the Project would complement the existing aesthetic of the neighborhood. This would help implement Fresno General Plan goal 8:
“Develop Complete Neighborhoods and districts with an efficient and diverse mix of residential densities, building types, and affordability which are designed to be healthy, attractive, and centered by schools, parks, and public and commercial services to provide a sense of place and that provide as many services as possible within walking distance.”
The Project would replace an existing vacant lot with a 32- unit apartment complex. This change would create uniformity with surrounding parcels. The Project would help implement the Fresno General plan by creating access to housing within the City.
The 32 dwelling units on the 2.11-acre site gives the proposed project a density of 15.16 DU/NA. In total, all proposed roofed structures would cover approximately 0.71- acre of the 2.11-acre site. The dwelling units would be constructed with setbacks of 20 ft from the property line in the front and the rear, and 5 ft on each side.
The dwelling units would consist of four (4) main buildings divided into eight (8) apartments, respectively. Two (2) apartment buildings would be located on the northwestern portion of the property, while two (2) apartment buildings, a swimming pool, Leasing office, and Manager’s office would be located on the southeastern portion of the property. The northeastern and southwestern portions of the property would be used for both carport and uncovered parking.
Parking for the proposed project includes seventy -nine (79) total spaces. These parking spaces include forty -two (42) carport spaces and thirty -seven (37) uncovered spaces.
Accessible parking spaces include two (2) carport spaces and three (3) uncovered spaces. Parking for electric vehicles includes ten (10) carport spaces and six (6) uncovered spaces. Two (2) spaces would be used for bicycle parking.
The property would be landscaped with various trees, shrubs, and other vegetation. The proposed project includes thirteen (13) large trees and nineteen (19) small trees. These trees would provide approximately 18,000 square feet (sq ft) of shade.
Security at the project site would include a six ft high block wall around perimeter of project as well as an automatic front gate with call box.
The proposed project would also include the following:
• Community patio and pool deck area
• Solar carports
• Multiple trash enclosures
• Storage enclosure
Hours of operation for the proposed project would be normal business hours for the Manager’s and Leasing Offices. Employees on- site would include a property manager and a maintenance worker. Any impacts to surrounding properties related to construction such as noise or dust would be temporary and take place during daytime hours. Long term impacts of the proposed residences would be minimal and would comply with all applicable codes and ordinances.
