Summary and Recommendation

Tim Dodt, Director of Design with Linderoth Architects Tim Dodt introduced himself and Roger Nelson with the development team of Stone Canyon. Mr. Dodt provided an overview of the proposal. He explained it is a rugged area but desirable with natural terrain and amenities adjacent to it. Stone Canyon is a community of large custom, luxury homes.  This development is envisioned to be a smaller, lower maintenance and walkable community with a pedestrian feel.  This project will appeal to seasonal residents and those who are downsizing. There will be a main drive in the center of site. At one time the design was for small units attached and we found if we split them apart they work better on the site plan. There are four elevations of the homes out with two unique floor plans, all single story. The units have open great rooms, kitchens and sliding doors to take advantage of oudoor spaces. With the two floor plans, there are modifications on the garage facing so it has being given a unique framing. Which are less garage dominant. The units have distinct entry's with a Spanish colonial style to blend in with other homes in area. The color scheme matches the desert and existing buildings.

Member Chen congratulated everyone involved on the design. She mentioned the unusual landscape color scheme.
 
Chair Eggerding opened the call to audience.

Jeff Grobstein, Oro Valley resident, expressed his support for the project. He thinks it is a product which will be benefit the community. They have gone above and beyond with the type of architecture to complement the club house and subdivision there. 
 
Chair Eggerding closed the call to audience.

MOTION: A motion was made by Nathan Basken, Member and seconded by Kit Donley, Member to approve the Stone Canyon Casitas model home architecture plan and OV1501934.

MOTION carried, 6-0.

Member Linton abstained because he had voted against site plan.
