right-of-way property exchange, and environmental review; R-4 zone;

On a motion by
Commissioner Christianson and seconded by Commissioner McCoy, the

residential condominium project to the City Council, based on findings
and subject to conditions and
code requirements. Discussion was
brief and focused on site drainage. One neighbor spoke on the project

significant improvements are needed.
2. 153
Stenner Street
.
TR and ER 1-06: Request for a 10-unit condominium project, and
environmental review; R-3 zone; Ocean Ridge Development Group,
applicant. (Jaime Hill)
On a motion by
Brown, seconded by Christianson, the Commission voted 6-0 to recommend
the environmental document and tentative tract map to the City Council
for final approval.
The Commissioner’s
discussion focused on drainage, density, and the social and behavioral
issues of the student-dominated neighborhood. Carol Florence of Oasis
Design and Brad Breckenwald of Wallace group explained the project
design and site drainage. Several neighboring property owners also
spoke, their major concerns being drainage and the effect on the
neighborhood of adding additional density on the site.
The Commission
commented that the proposed project would not significantly worsen
existing social conditions in the area. They did however feel that
given the large size of the units additional assurance that the units
would remain 2-bedrooms was needed. To that effect they added a
condition to be added to the CC&R’s that only designated bedrooms be
used as sleeping rooms. Commissioner Stevenson also endorsed the ARC’s
direction that the units be reduced in scale to comply with setback
standards.
3. Corner

GPC 92-06: General Plan Conformity Report for acceptance of a
conservation easement; City of San Luis Obispo, applicant.
