Request to consider, with a recommendation from the General Manager of the
Recreation and Parks Department in consultation with the Recreation and Parks
Commission,
whether the shading or shadowing on Gene Friend Recreation Center from the
proposed project will be significant or adverse, pursuant to Planning Code
Section 295 (The Sunlight Ordinance). The proposed project will construct a four
story, 23 unit multifamily SRO building on an existing vacant lot. The finished
roof of the building would reach a height of approximately 45 feet, while the
parapet would reach a height of approximately 48 feet. The project site is
located within the MUG (Mixed use General) and RED (Residential Enclave
District) Zoning District and the 45-X Height and Bulk District.
Preliminary Recommendation (Planning Commission): Adoption of the
Motion finding that net new shadow from the project is not adverse, and
authorizing the allocation of the cumulative shadow limits for Gene Friend
Recreation Center to this project.
