The nejghbarhood reprssentat~~es stated that there has been a surge of demohtion of existing ofder hauses and construct~on of new, `bversized" houses The group requested tF~at ar~ emerger~cy ofd~nanee be aelopted ~r~ order ta er~s~are that new de~e~opment is compatib~e with the existmg neighborhaod scale and character as welf as preserves the neighbprhood's historic deve{apment pa~terns tn response to tf~e group's concerns, Counc~l directed staffto study the demolition and de~elopment act~~ity occurrmg in th~ area, and to consider amendments to the R~ djstrict standards ~n t~re Nortl~ of ~~;~ ~ ~ ~ U~ Mantana residential ne~ghbarhood ANALYSIS De~efopment Patterns The exist~ng citywide singie family (RI) developmen# standards were in~t~ally adopted in S~ptember, ~ 988 and subsequently amen~ed ~n 1993 The 9 993 amendments ~ncl~ded modifications to #he method of calculat~ng step back requirements and reiaxed the standards far two story accessory buii~ings by eiim~nating the Cond~tionai Use Permit reqwrement if specific setback and ste~ back standards are met Staff has studred permit actr~rty m th~ narti~ of Mon#ana nerghbar#~ood dat~ng back to 'f 989 in order to pro~~de a history of demol~tion and constructian ac#i~ity in #he area since adoption of the current development standa~ds There are approximately 3000 single famcly parcels m the area north of Montana Avenue As ~Ilustrat~d on the #oNow+ng chart. the pace of demolition and new construction activity has run roughiy parailel In addit~on, as might be expected, new home canstruct~on peaks during the years when the econamy +s strongest However, the rate af demo~ition and new eonstrUCtion activity in 1998, to date. is unpreceder~ted, already h~gher than any af the previous nme years There has been a surge in the demalttsan of older hous~ng and reconstruct+on of housing bu~lt to the maxtmum aNowable deveiopment s#andarcls ~ast year, there were 25 demol~tion permits f~led for single fam~ly hames in this area, mare than doubling the numb~r af such applications filed in 1996 and a five fold increase over the numf~er of such applicafior~s in 1995 In ~ 998, 33 demolit~on appl~cation have already beer~ f~led A cor~t~nuation o€ th~s 2 trend waulci place the f~g~re for th~s year at more than do~t~le last yea~'s record S~m~larly, last year a totai of 18 build~ng permits were issued for new single family home construction in this ne~gnbarhvod Th~s year, 21 such permits have already been issued MORTH OF MaNTANA R'!

s,gn~ficantly ~m{~acted by new development Perm~t data shows that. durmg 1997 and '1998 to date, a total af only 8 demohtion perm~ts and 121~u~lding ~erm~ts for new constructivn ha~e been fifed for development in all of'~he City's remaining single family nerg~barhoads comb~ned Th~s compares with ~8 demolition perm~ts and 3~ new constructEOn ~a~rmits for development m the north of Montana neighborhood during the same period Develo~ment Issues The narth of Montana Avenue residsntial arsa conta~ns a mix of older. single stary and two story homes, and newer, larger dweNings that have been constructed ~n recent years As prev~ously stated, many area res~dents ha~e ra~sed cancerns regardmg the number of 3 demol~tions and #he amount, size and scale of new development in th~s single family neighborhood These concerns relate pnmanly ta the height, perc~ived number of stories and massing of the new buddmgs, as well as the compatibility of the new structures with the existing hauses in the area Many of the new, larger structures ~lo no# have a contextua~ re~ationshrp witf~ ad~acent structures, resuiting m negati~e Empacts rn terms vf the neighborhood's access to light and air, privacy, and #he o~erall amount of open space as viewed from the street and between budd~ngs Th~ new structures are out of proportion jn relatian to the lot width and height of exist~ng structures Photographs illustrat+ng these devefo~ment trends are provided m Attachment D Neighborhaod representati~es have recommended that the Enterim ordinance mclude a reduct~on ~n the perm~tted lot co~erage (from 40% to 35%), a prohibition an lofts ar~d mezzanines, and a requirement that two story accessory structures comply with the same sEtback requ~rements as the primary structure Staff considered these recommendat~ons and exammed ather ways to m+t~gate the rmpact af new structures on the extstrng neighborhaods Development Standards As outlined below, the proposed amendmenfs to the R1 zoning standards +n the area north ot Montana Avenue are a~tended to sl~ghtly maariy the ex~stmg standards and to create buifdings that mtegrate befter ~nto the neighborF~ood These rn4dif~cations are designed to reduce bu~lding massing wh~le still allowing far design expression and flexibifity They are not intended to stop construct~on As with all interim ord~nances, the #Erst ordinance w~li ~ be effecti~e for a penod of 45 days, dur~r~g which time staff will return with an extension It is estima#ed the in#erim standards will be in effect for at least one year whike staff, the Planning Commission, the City Council, a~d the public de~elop permanen# standards • Lot Coverage One of the ne~ghborhaod recommendations was a request to reduce the maximum allowable lot coverage ~n the area from 40% ta 35% Staff has considered this suggestian and has cohcluded that reducing the maximum allawable lot ca~erage would not necessarify reduce the perceGVed bulk and mass of a s#ruct~re While decreasing the allowab~e lat co~erage would reduce the buildmg footprrnt, ~t wauld not reduce the overall mass~ng of the structure ~n fact, it cauld result m buildmgs with mqre mass and bulk s~nce de~elopers would be encouraged to maximize the second #loor in order to recoup the amaunt of square faotage lost due to the reduced building faotpnnt Staff bel~ev~s reducing lot co~erage would ultimately discaurage ane stary houses and one story ae~cl~tions irrstead of redueirrg lot coverage, oth~r measures to address buildmg mass and scale are propased • Building Height, Lofts, Mezzanines and Unini~ab~table Flaar Space Presently the perm~tted height in the district is two stories and 28 feet This height limit allows for ~ntermed~ate floor levels such as lofts and mezzar~~r~es to be constr~cted f~etween the first and second floars and b~tween the second f{oar and roaf of a structure, pro~~ded the floor area does not exceed 33% of the floor area befow In addition, the bujldmg code allows unmt~abitable spaces such as attics and starage areas with a height 5 clearar~ce of less than se~en feet to be constructed above the two story limit Two story buildmgs cantaining these types of areas aften have #he appearance of a fhree story bu~ldmg, which adds fo the perce~ved he~ght and number of s#or~es of the str~cture Reducing the permitted height could lead ta flat roof structures and wouid discourage elements such as clerestones or ra~sed ceiling heights This, in turr~, would g~ve the appearance of box-like structures It appears the ~ssue ~s floor space between le~els which gi~e the ~mpression of a three story structure Therefare, staff recommends that the lnterim ordmance prahibrt lofts, mezzanmes, and any other floor space between the frrst and second level, or the second IeWel and roof The elim~nation of these types of areas will reduce the perceived height and number o~ storEes af a structure, wh~ch wikl help to ensure that new construction in the area is more compat~ble with the existing iow scale character of #he ne~ghborhood • Bu~ldc~rg Pro~ect~ons Primary structures on a standard parcel (50' x 150'} in the R1 district are requir~d to be set back a minimum of 20' ~n the front yard, 5' on the side yards, and 25' in the rear yard (measured from the center 1in~ of the rear alley) While buElding walls are required to comply with these set backs, the development standards allow numerous pro~ec#ions far elements such as ea~es, chimneys, bay windaws, patios, balcon~es, and porte cocheres Based an staff's rev~euv ot se~eral recer~t s~ngle tarn~ly structures ~r~ #he sub~ect area, ~t appears that the permitted pro~ections into the required yard areas mcrease the perce~ved budding mass and give the impression the structure ~s built out to ~he property lines Th~s is particularly true on two ad~acent parcels where a new struct~re is located next to an 6 existing structure with non-conforming setbacks Therefore, staff recommends that the mt~rim ardman~e prohibit all pro~ecfions in#o any required yard, except roof eaves The elim~nation of other pro~ections wiif control the scale and massmg af new construction and insure greater compatibility with the north of Montana Avenue ne~ghborhood context • Two Stary Accessory Structures or~ Corner Lots The current R1 development standards permit a two story accessory structure to be located on one side parcel line and five feet from the rear parcel {ine. pro~ided the second story portion o€ the bu~ldmg camplfes vv~#h the se#back req~~rements for the pr~rrtary structure This pro~is~on allows for second story additions to existing garages, where thE roof of the garage is used as a roof deck and #he deck is setback three feet from the side praperty line and five feet from the rear property line These structures, when located ort a carner parcel, resulf in the perceptjan af large. two stary buildings located in the rear and side yard areas, increasing the site's de~elopment intensity In order to address this cancern and retiuce the irnpact afi these structures, staff recommends tha~ the intenm orcl~nance requ~re that all portions of a two story accessory structure comply with ~he setback requirements far the primary structure This will require the entire accessory structure to provide a five fOpt side yard setback and a 25 foot rear yard setback (measured fram the center line of the rear a11ey) This pro~ision would appEy to all new accessory structures on corner lats as well as additians to exis#mg accessary structures Since many existing single story garages are located along side andlor rear property I~nes. under this prov~sion, second stary additions to these ex~sting structures wauld be proh~bited ~ • Maximum Second Story Square Footage As previously stated, one of the primary concerns expressed by area residents is the mass and bulk af new structures and ti~at the second stories pro~ide very little ar#iculatior~ and relaef in comparisan to the first story Th~s resu~ts in large, blvck shaped structures While the current R1 de~elopment standards require that the secand story be stepped back on a portion of the front, side, and rear elevations, structures built in compliance with these standards still do not achie~e the desired amo~nt of second sfory articulation In order to ac~~ress this concem and to ensure that the secand story is appropriately scaled in relation to the first story, stafF recommends that the interim ord~r~ance limit second flaar square footage based upon #he size of the first floor building foot print As praposed, the second story floor area would be limited to 6~% of the building foot pr~nt This will require that the second story E~e approximately two thirds the size of the first floor, which will resul# m greater second story articulation than provided in the current ordinance Additionally, in order to pre~ent the entire second s#ory setback area from being used as deck space, staff recommends that balcany an~ terrace areas on the second flaor be limited to ~% of #he first floar tootprint On a standard 7500 square foot parcel using the maximum permittec! 4~°/o lat co~erage. the proposed standards would allow a 2600 square foot first floor, a 1690 square foot secor~d floor, ar~d a 40Q square foot garage, tor a tota! of 4690 sauare feet The standards also allow up ta an additional 250 square feet above the garage, permitting up ta 4940 square feet of occupred area on a 7500 square faot parcel Current development standards would permit a 2600 square foot first floor, a 29 88 square foat seco~d floor, and 8 a 400 square foot garage, for a total of 5195 square feet With the addition of 25a square feet permitted above the garage, current develapment standards would allow up to 5445 square feet of accupied floor area on a 7~00 square foat parcei Th~refore, staff's proposed modifications will not resul# in a significant reduction in floor area for typ~cal single family homes • Front Yard Exca~ation Neighbors in the sub~ect area have expressed a concern about the exca~atiar~ of front yard areas m arder to pro~ide access to subterranean garages The current standards permit three feet of exca~ation withEn the front yard setback measured from the site's a~erage natural grade ThGS is particuiarly problematic on parcels that are sloped because the pro~ect can take adWantage of the a~erage natural grade measurement, excavate a considerable amount of the front yard, and develap a subterranean garage which when ~iewed frorn the stre~t, is nat campatible with the character af the surroundir~g neighborhood In fiact the resulting hause is perceiWed as a three story building from the street In order to pre~en# excessive exca~ation in the front yard setback area on an intenm basis until it is studied m greater detail, the proposed ordinance cantams a provision that {~rohibits any excavation within the front yard setback A prohibition on frvnt yard exca~at~on wilf prevent frant yard access to subterranean parking Result of Proposed Mod~f~cations The proposed mod~fications ta the R1 development standards in the north af Montana s~ngle fam~iy neighborhaod wo~ld resuft is a slight reduction m the tota~ amaunt of square 9 tootage ~ermitted or~ a parcel Given t~te standard 75Q0 square foot parcel size m th~s area, current de~elopment standards would allow appraximately 5195 square feet of d~~efapment, not including up ta 25a additional square feet above fhe garage The proposed standards would reduce this amount to approximately 469~ square feet, a 500 square foat reductian m the maximum building size Despite the modest reduction in square footage, t~e nature of the praposed developrnent s#andards will provide far structures compatible with the existmg character of the neighborhood The emergency interim ordinance would apply to building permit applications filed after August 18, 1998, the effective date af this ordinance This date was se~ected because it ensures the ordir~ance will operatem prospectively only and t~ereby be less sub~ect to legal chaffenge Additianally, ~t allows ~ro~ects fhat are currenfly in plan check and have been designec~ and engineered ta meet the current R1 developmenf standards, to proceed without re~ising the building design to comply with the propased standards The nan- emergency interim ordinance would apply ta building permit appf~cations filed after the effecti~e date of that ordinance GEQA STATUS The proposed Enterim ordinance is categoncally exempt from the provisions of ~he Cal~forn~a En~r~ro~mental Quality Act (CEQA} ~ursuant to Class 5 ot the 5tate G~~del~nes in that these minor modifications to the R1 de~elopment standards in the north of Mantana single family neighborhood will not alter the permitted area land uses ar increase de~elopment dens~ty ~o BUDGETlF~NANCIAL lMPACTS The proposed interim ordinance w~l[ not ha~e any budgetary or financial impacts

I do not believe #hat the proposals by Doris Sasin's gro~p wili ~mprove the neighbprhaod. Arbitrarily reducing the 1ot coverage from 4U9`a ~0 35°~0, may result in some larger back yards, but wi11 not change the street view of the facade o# most ~ew hotases. Such S reduction in 1ot co~erage is shartsighted and migh# r9sult ir~ box~er houses as arch+tects are forced to ~ncorporate t~esired sleme~ts ot their desigr~s in a smaller volume without the freedom to expand #he faot print and st~p back the second floor. E~iminating ths possibifity of a mezzanine also wi1# resul~ irt boxrer designs, By restr~cting the foot prin# of new homes so severely. two s#ory hames are almost dictated. Some people have a special need ~ar a single level horne. Comer pro~ert~es shou~d r~vt have spec~a~ setbaek restrictions on accessory buildings that cvuld reduce their usable rear yards Atthough the recent surge in construction is noisy and adds to truck traffic in the neighbort~ood, it's a part of the real estate cyc~e and wijt lik~ly st~bside.

July 31, 1998 354 14t'' Street Santa Monica, ~A Dear Mr. Jaiiii: I am opposed to changing the current setbacks on carner properties. I hava a nice little 2,a00 square ~oot bungalow and I live ~Nith~n siaht of the supposed~y terrible "monstrosity" on ~2tr and Carlyle. I DO 1vOT find it offens~v~, I walk by the ~ouse 'tw~ce a day and I da not feel ~r~e garage impedes on :ne or my right of way in any esthet~c or practical way. It's ~~sst fine. I would mueh rather those people have 100 more square feet oT useable green lawn space than 100 more square feet of a useless alleyway or concrete dr~ve cover.~ng a setback, lead~ng up to the garage. Our back yards are tiny and prec~ous. We need more green space in ~his czty. We need more full and uninterrupted lawns, NOT more setbacics that lead tio tiny, useless segmented pieces of our property. 7'here is NOTHING WRONG with the current regulatians regardzng setbacks. I am FOR seme reasonable li:r_its ar. the size of houses in my neighborhocd, but I believe th~s new corner se4back rule ar.d the 35~5 lat coverage and height ~estr~ctions are WRONG HEADED. If you want to s~op mans~ans and encourag~ d~verse and beautiful arch~tecture, make one simple chanae only: lim~t ti~~e square footage of the interior space~ ~ would suggest 5000 square feet, ra~her than the 7,000 to 8,aoa square ~eet of the current "mansions". S~ncerely, Pat~I H s Ho:r.eowner, North of Montana ~.~ r _ ~ r; ~ J ~~~ ~ ~~ ~ ` ~~ ti ~~ _ ~Q-~`_` ~`l~ ;~ ~~. ~ John Jalili C~ty Manage~ • Q ~ • ~" _ ~ I~ ~ _ F V- .~- _ C~ty o~ Santa Monica Paul Haggis 359 14th Stzeet San~a Monica 90402 re: NOMA ord~nance Dear Mr. Jalili: ~uly 30, ~9~8 I aFn in favar of limiting growth in Santa Mon~ca, but I believe the emergency ordinanae, as proposed, is a terrsble mistake, and wz~l have the oppos~te effect to tha~ intezded by NOMA. The problem, as NOMA corre~t~y, ~f colarful~y, s~aLes it, is "mansion-ificat~on". However their suggestions, lirti~ing percentage o~ ~o~ coverage and restricting heigh~, will actually cause mor~ af the same. The real p~oblem ~s tne maxlmum interior square foatage of t?~e zomes themselves . The offens~ve monstrasities that NOMA po~nts ou~, o~ w~ic:~ there ar~ many, are largely b3ailt like b~g boxes - straiaht up ta the maxiin~m ze~ght, wzt~ flat-top roof lines, ir. a faux Mediterranean or Spanish style - and buii~ more-or-less stra~ght aut square to the max~rlsm ~ot coverage. 'The thing is, other two-story homes that are not bu~lt like g~ant, offensive blocks, that have beautiful peaked roofs, anay actually cover mare of the lot and the peaks of the roo~s rnay be higher, but tney are actually much sma].ler homes and NO ONE in NOMA would call them qffens~ve. By limitinq 1ot coverage and heiqht, r~ther than interior square or aub3c faotaqe of living space, you are ~ust encauXaginq peop].e to build SO7~'S with flat-top roofs in order ta :naximize their square footaqe. You want a paradax? If these height and space restrictions become law, more homes wY11, of necessi~y, loo;~ like the very intrusYVe, boxy "mansians" of which we would all like to ~e rid' And we will have an EVEN UGLIER neicshbcrhood. o~ .• • . ~l ~ r very intrusive, boxy "mansions" of which we would all like to be rid~ Ar~d we will have an EVEN UGLIER ne.~chbdrhood_ The answer is simple. Maice NO cnanges in tne codes ather tran to LIMIT THE TOTAL SQJARE FO~TAGE OF Tri~ HOME. These "mans~ons" are 7,000 to 8,000 square fee~ (or morE~; of inter~or floor space~ Limi~ it to 5,0~0 square feet ana yflu reduce the size af the houses wh~le stili encouraging people to use more aesthet~c designs tnat ar~ perhaps less space eff~cient. That way we can still have grace~ul homes of tradiLional and modern design, that may, for exa:nple, use peaked roofs and dormer w~n.~ows, which naturaiiy limit your useab~e space on vhe second floor. Or wi~l have more one-stary elemencs, li{e sun rooms and green-house rooms, which a two story "black" wou~d prohibit. Please reconsider, and give us an ordinance that encourages design and elegance, and not 7ust the ugl~est and most efficient use of space. Give us what we ~eed, not what we ask for.
