Council disclosures.
Council and Staff discussed that the landscaping updates were reviewed by the City’s third party landscape architect, that conditions had included plants not permitted which have been corrected on a revised landscape plan that the Applicant will submit, that the slope would have to contain only native species plantings, that the planting conditions and maintenance responsibilities follow the property and that Staff could enforce the conditions regardless of the owner, if they were made aware of an issue.
Jennifer Bolyn, Applicant’s Architect, presented a PowerPoint (on file) and stated that they had extensive coordination with neighbors, they had an updated landscape plan due to late breaking requests, they had addressed view impacts, they followed a single-story street level appearance design, they did not build setback to setback, they implemented multiple iterations of story poles, and they had made modifications to the deck area.
Council and Applicant’s representative discussed that the Applicant was in agreement to all items listed in Exhibit B submitted as a blue folder by Jim Greenstein, that the blue folder submittal listed as Exhibit A were all new items they had not heard of until today, that the Applicant would consider creating a berm along the western slope to achieve 30 inches less of apparent height without having to revise the ceiling heights, that a soils engineer and civil engineer was on the project and a shoring contractor would evaluate the needs of the soils professional’s recommendations that would address the Driscoll’s concern of grading, that the project was 25 ft. tall at the highest peak and the apparent height from the street was 15 ft., and that the project’s height consideration was carefully considered for each neighbor.
Jennifer Bolyn, Architect, said that the ceiling heights were important for the house, that she thought they could achieve more by lessening the apparent height 30 inches by creating a berm of the western slope, that the waiver for story poles was due to the poles having been in place since June 2022, that they worked with the Driscolls by pulling back the master suite one foot east, and that a fence was removed since it was not required for a spa if it contained a spa cover.
Solana Beach City Council Regular Meeting Minutes January 11, 2023 Page 7 of 11 The project’s Civil Engineer said that they reviewed the drainage plans, the front yard tank, how a pump failure would then cause runoff downhill and that a French drain system was being created along the western slope, and that the pump system was built oversized by 33%.
Barbara Mansdorfer said that she and her husband live on Marview Lane west and downhill from the project, that she wished they had been involved earlier, that the proposed project was not compatible with surrounding homes, that the building down into the hillside was unlike other homes in the area, that it would be large and intrusive with the extremely large stacked and covered decks on the upper and lower levels projecting toward their home, that the stacking of the decks with covered portions magnified and exaggerated the apparent bulk and scale of the house, that noise would be projected from the new decks, that they were requesting the removal of four feet of the westerly lower level patios shown in Jim Greenstein’s submitted drawing, to increase the elevation of the lower level finished floor from 274 MSL to 276 MSL to reduce the amount of grading and removal of slope, and they had already made various compromises and withdrawn some of their objections to the project.
Carrie and Jim Greenstein said that they lived on Marview Lane, that they were concerned about the negative impacts that this project would have on them and surrounding neighbors, that the proposed project would carve out 43% of the existing steep hillside on the lot between their existing house and the common property line (shown on screen), that the standard in the area was to build at the top of the lot and not build down into the hillside, the project would increase rain runoff due to the increased building footprint and hardscape, the main level of 10 ft. walls of glass with a 1,200 sq. ft. deck was reduced from 1,500 sq. ft. at their request, most of this deck will be covered by a roof extending 16 to 18 ft. over the 22 ft. deck increasing the apparent scale and bulk of the house, that the Applicant had made some modifications to address their concerns but that they would like to be sure there would be a condition of approval addressing their concerns, that they ask that the lower level patio be reduced by 4 ft. as noted in their submitted Exhibit 2 (shown), that no other improvements other than planting would be allowed west of this limit to reduce the scale, bulk and massing of the project from the west, to reduce the amount of the hillside removal, that the finished floor for the lower level be raised by three feet by reducing the floor to ceiling heights so that the lower level would have eight foot ceilings and the upper level would have nine foot ceilings plus vaulted ceilings to prevent increasing the decks or patios in the future. They showed two more slides of the neighbors’ view and an aerial view of the property and surrounding area.
Howard Sampson referenced the slide shown by Jim Greenstein, and said that he lived on Marview south of Mr. Greenstein, he was concerned about erosion that had already cost him a loss of 6-7 ft. of land, that building down the slope side would set a precedent, that if someone builds directly behind him into the bluff side he will experience it even worse as his slope is steeper causing protrusion toward his home, that the project appeared to be an outside entertainment home that may cause noise and light pollution, that the bulk and size was a concern and that he would like it to conform with the community.
Joe Driscoll said that he was available for questions about his expressed concerns and said that he did not grade down his property but stair stepped his house when it was built and that his second story was toward the street rather than over the hillside.
Solana Beach City Council Regular Meeting Minutes January 11, 2023 Page 8 of 11 Jennifer Bolyn, Applicant’s Architect, (rebuttal) said that the Applicant agreed to increase the finished floor to 275 MSL reducing their lower level to a 9 ft. ceiling, adding a berm to conserve the slope by 30 inches reducing impact, that they did make every effort to address all neighbors’ concerns by grading down and creating a tuck under habitable area, and that the drainage and erosion would be improved on the property due to the modern drainage system that would be installed.
Council and Applicant discussed the upper-level patio before and after it was removed showing the reduced deck area, that the Applicant had reviewed the proposed conditions on Exhibit B submitted by Jim Greenstein, the concern about the depth of the patio and patio cover even though it had already been reduced, that the deck was a standard 20 ft. deep, that the berm up to the patio could mitigate the area better than cutting back the patio.
Councilmember Zito recessed the meeting for a break at 7:51 p.m. and reconvened at 8:05 p.m.
Ms. Bolyn stated that the neighbors seemed to receive the berm proposal positively and they would raise of the finished floor by a foot.
Council confirmed with the Sampsons, Greensteins, and Mansdorfers.
Council discussed the appreciation of the Applicant and the neighbors working together and that the project was complicated given the topography.
Ms. Bolyn stated that she had a 2-scale drawing she could submit of what was agreed upon, that it would show how much of the daylight would be cut out restoring that original cut out, that the only difference would be the finished floor being raised to 275 MSL and on the northern side the slope would increase from 276 to 277.5 because it would be 30 inches above, and that it would be a natural slope.
Greg Wade, City Manager, said that Staff would refer to an exhibit berm slope submitted at this meeting (on file).
