AGENDA ITEM NO.
ITEM TITLE:
Public Hearing — Modification of a previously approved Tentative Subdivision Map for the Harbor View
Condominiums located at 819 D Avenue. (Applicant Andrew Held) (Case File 2011-26 S)
PREPARED BY: Martin Reeder DEPARTMENT: Develop ent ' s/Planning.
PHONE: 336-4313 APPROVED BY.
EXPLANATION:
The applicant is requesting to convert part of the commercial space and common area into six additional
residential units. Specifically, the existing gym on the 6th floor would be converted into a 3-bedroom residential
unit and the gym relocated to the ground floor; five urban loft -style would be constructed in the existing
commercial area along D Avenue; and the commercial suites along 8th Street would be one large unit, rather than
individual units. The existing active commercial suite would continue to operate and the overall number of units
would remain at 82 (81 residential units and one commercial unit). The reason for the modification is due to the
recorded Final Map specifically allowing 75 dwelling units and 7 commercial suites (82 units). The modification is
necessary to change that language. The proposal is consistent with the Downtown Specific Plan and General
Plan. The attached Background Report describes the project in more detail.
The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on November 7, 2011, where Commissioners asked
questions about occupancy rates and common open space. The Commission voted to approve the Tentative
Subdivision Map modification based on required findings and subject to Conditions of Approval.
