Summary

The commission approved John Farleys final coastal site plan for a new 4,961 sq ft residence at 111 Oneida Drive 5-0, contingent on DPW drainage report revisions (noting coastal overlay and two Caltech systems), sewer acknowledgment, and conservation planting plan acceptance.

The Planning & Zoning Commission on March 17 approved a final coastal site plan for a new 4,961-square-foot residence at 111 Oneida Drive, a proposal brought by John Farley. The vote was unanimous (5-0).

Staff reported that the applicant addressed prior missing plan sheets and submitted a revised planting plan that had support from conservation staff; DPW drainage reviewers asked that the drainage report explicitly state the property lies within the coastal overlay zone and that the applicant install two Caltech systems instead of three. The sewer division requested a signed letter acknowledging P&Z comments; the applicant submitted that letter. Conservation and EMAC comments on increased native plantings and energy improvements were noted. The commission closed the public comment period and approved the application with standard conditions and required follow-ups on the drainage report and remaining departmental issues.

Quote: "Thank you very much, everybody. Appreciate it," John Farley said after the approval.

The approval included a recorded motion citing staff reports and departmental conditions; DPW will review final drainage materials prior to issuing a zoning permit, and conservation will verify planting and landscaping on the final map.
