April 19 2023 - Project approved by Planning Commission

Purpose: Commission will review a site plan and conduct a public hearing on April 19th 2023 at 6:30 pm at City Hall-Council Chambers located at 911 10th Street for a proposed new single family dwelling using the Village House Form Type.

Background: 915 9^th Street was previously submitted as a Form Zone Site Plan under case number PC 23-07. During the Public Posting Period that ended on April 3, 2023, the City received a comment stating that the setbacks required for this project were not met by the proposal. The applicant withdrew the application and resubmitted, with changes reflected in the attached packet, and the Director has forwarded the application for Commission review.

After reviewing the project again, staff found that on page 3, where the Main Floor Plan was drawn, the width of the house is shown as 31 feet and the width of the porch is 5 feet equaling a total structural width of 36 feet. The lot is 50 feet wide, and the village house form type requires a 10 foot open side setback and a 5 foot closed side setback for interior lots. That leaves 35 feet of buildable width, therefore, at 36 feet, one can surmise that the structure is too wide to meet setbacks for the form type.

The project site plan showed that the closed side setback is met, so it became clear that the side porch posts were encroaching by 1 foot into the open side (10’) setback under the eve (roof overhang) of the porch, which is allowed to encroach up to 2 feet into the setback. The porch posts were indicated on the floor plan sheet initially and not on the site plan, therefore the encroachment of the porch posts was not measured when other setbacks were measured. The encroachment was unintentional, so rather than insisting the posts remain as shown, the applicant has withdrawn their application and re-submitted a revised Form Zone Site Plan application under case number PC 23-16.

PC 23-16 has been reviewed by staff for compliance with the applicable standards of Chapter 18.29 and 18.40 of the Golden Municipal Code. Please review the attached plans to determine if this project meets the standards and requirements of the code.

Staff would also like to note that during the building permit review process, additional review takes place and staff places a requirement on any building permit that a principal structure’s setbacks within 1’ of a setback line to have surveyor submit a setback verification prior to the pouring of a foundation and the project would need to meet that requirement during that portion of the review.

Site Plan

April 19 2023 - Project approved by Planning Commission

Purpose: Commission will review a site plan and conduct a public hearing on April 19th 2023 at 6:30 pm at City Hall-Council Chambers located at 911 10th Street for a proposed new single family dwelling using the Village House Form Type.

Background: 2237 Illinois Street was previously submitted as a Form Zone Site Plan under case number PC 22-43. During the public posting period that ended on March 27, 2023, the City received a comment stating that the setbacks required for this project were not met by the proposal. After reviewing the project again, staff found that the window wells on both the open side and closed side setback encroached +/- 4 inches beyond the allowed encroachment of 3 feet into setbacks for window wells. The applicant withdrew the application and resubmitted, with changes reflected in the attached packet, and the Director has forwarded the application for Commission review.

Staff had discussed the allowed window well setback with the applicant prior to their Form Zone Site Plan submittal, however the encroachment was overlooked at the time of final review. The encroachment was unintentional by the applicant, so rather than insisting the window wells remain the size shown on the Form Zone Site Plan application as submitted, the applicant withdrew their application, resubmitting a revised Form Zone Site Plan application under case number PC 23-17 with the window well sizes revised.

PC 23-17 has been reviewed by staff for compliance with the applicable standards of Chapter 18.29 and 18.40 of the Golden Municipal Code, see the attached Case Packet. Planning Commission must review the proposal to determine if the project meets the standards and requirements Chapters 18.29 and 18.40.

Staff would also like to note that during the building permit review process, additional review takes place and staff places a requirement on any building permit that a principal structure’s setbacks within 1’ of a setback line to have surveyor submit a setback verification prior to the pouring of a foundation and the project would meet that requirement during that portion of the review.
