I. ITEMS OF DISCUSSION
A. DR-87-015 - Mauro, 21471 Continental Circle
The meeting was called to order at·7:30 p.m. Planning
Director Hsia presented the modification being requested,
i.e. a color change from medium brown to medium gray. Mr.
and Mrs. Kemp, owners, presented photos of the house from
"'~' various vantage points to show the minimal impact in the
change of colors. They also showed samples of the brick and
rock materials used on,the house.
Commissioner Kolstad 'felt the house will still be too
visible with the colors proposed. Commissioner Harris felt
the most visible elevation is primarily stone and glass so
the color will not be too bright. Other Commissioners
agreed.
There was consensus in favor of the proposed color change.
B. DR-87-090 - Jordan, 14220 Paul Avenue
Planning Director Hsia presented the modification being
requested, i.e. a change in materials on the north and west
elevation. D. Cunningham, representative for the applicant,
presented graphic materials and the plans showing the
proposed changes. The proposed colors are grey pearl (#215)
for the main part of the structure and Cape Code blue (#72)
for the trim. The stone material is called "San Francisco
cobblestone."
There was consensus among the Commission to approve the
proposed material changes and the color scheme.

· Element, noting that the consultant brought the revised·

Committee-of-the-Whole Report
4/5/88
Dick Arjo, Community Planning· Consultants, presented the
revised projected noise contour map based on·the negotiated
freeway design agreement approved by the City Council on'

the 60dba contour does· not extend as far into the
residential areas as shown in the previous map.

additional changes.
