CASE NO. : 123 MF (Resubmittal )
APPLICANT: Deep Canyon Tennis Club Homeowner' s Association
LOCATION: Deep Canyon Tennis Club
ZONING: PR-7, S.P.
In July of this year, this request was approved by the Planning Commission
Their requirements were different from the Design Review Board with
regards to the elevation of the tennis courts. The Board recommended
that the courts be recessed to an elevation of 62.5 ft. , whereas, the
Planning Commission approved the project limiting the height of the tennis
court fencing not to exceed the height of the adjacent walls. The
applicant has filed revised plans which do not fully comply with either
limitation, but rather is a third alternative. At the closest point
(cross-section B) , the tennis court fencing is 4.7 ft. higher than the
existing adjacent wall . To mitigate this difference in height, the
applicant is proposing to intensively landscape this area with a combi-
nation of pine trees and shade trees.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Determine that if the landscaping alternative is implemented with a
combination of 15 gallon (50%) and 24" box (50%.) trees, it would appear
to meet the intent of the Planning Commission approval on this request.
