Jackson Oaks Two-Lot Minor Subdivision (County File #CDMS21-00007)

Approval of a tentative map for a minor subdivision application to subdivide the subject 1.50-acre parcel into two parcels. Upon dedication of approximately 0.09-acres of right of way to the County for the potential, future widening of North Jackson Way, Parcel A would have an approximately 0.46-acre gross lot area and Parcel B would have an approximately 0.95-acre gross lot area. The San Ramon Creek area within the easternmost portion of the subject property is restricted from development through a recorded grant deed of development rights (4212 OR 96, recorded 1962). The proposed site improvements include an approximately 16-foot paved road within an access easement ranging between 35 feet and 39.6 feet in width for access to Parcel B from North Jackson Way, and one bio-retention area on Parcel B in order to collect storm water discharge from both resultant parcels. Variances to the requirements of the Single-Family Residential (R-20) zoning district for a 14-foot secondary front setback (where 20 feet is required) and for a 0.7-foot side yard (where 15 feet is required) for the existing single-family residence that will remain on Parcel A have been granted. Exceptions have been granted from the requirements of Title 9 of the County Ordinance Code related to the undergrounding of existing overhead utility services/facilities and to sidewalk and curb improvements along North Jackson Way. A tree permit is granted to allow work within the driplines of five (5) code-protected valley oak trees (trees #10, 12, #14, #15, and #16) for development of a driveway and extension of underground utilities to Parcel “B” and the removal of seven (7) code-protected trees including one honey locust, four eucalyptus, one Monterey pine, and one overgrown privet on the subject property due to poor health, poor condition, invasiveness, or history of the species for failure. Although not proposed as part of this project, it is anticipated that Parcel B will be developed with a new single-family residence. The tentative map includes a potential location for this proposed improvement. It is anticipated that the project would entail ±155 cubic yards (CYS) of net fill (± 320 CYS of cut and ±475 CYS of fill) for the future private roadway and future residential foundation pad.
