3.1. A request to demolish the existing structures and construct a new single-family residence and detached garage at 405 E. Toluca Avenue. (Design Review No. 5156).
The proposed curb parallel to Toluca Ave. directly impacts access to my property at 435 Toluca Ave., which I can only access via the easement on the property of 415 East Toluca. The entrance to the easement is already very narrow. We kindly ask that an alternative to the hardscape curb be considered to prevent the hazard of accidentally "jumping" the curb and damaging our tires or wheels, especially in wet conditions or at night when visibility is low.
I am very disappointed in the poor design of the proposed building. The renderings look like a cross between a trailer home and an apartment building. The garage in the back looks more like a house than the house itself. There is absolutely no architectural interest or style or charm. The front door should face the street. Since it does have an attached JADU, is it confirmed that it will be owner-occupied? Because right now it looks like a multi-family rental complex instead of a single family residence.
