Hearing of persons interested in or objecting to the decision of the Planning Department dated March 28, 2005 (Case No. 2004.0810E), exempting from environmental review the proposal to demolish an existing, two-story, single-family structure, and construct in its place a four-story, two unit building. The existing building is about 29-feet-tall and contains approximately 950 gross square feet (gsf), with two bedrooms, and two independently accessible parking spaces. The new building would be about 40 feet tall, four-stories, about 4,934, gsf of space, containing two dwelling units (with three bedrooms each), and two, independently accessible parking spaces. The net change in gross square footage for the site would be an increase of about 3,984 gsf; there would be no net change in number of parking spaces. According to the project sponsor, there is a 9-inch diameter camellia, a 23-inch hemlock and an unidentified 33-inch tree on site. The camellia and hemlock would be removed and the 33-inch tree would remain with the project. According to the Historical Resource Evaluation Report, the structure was likely constructed in 1887, as the water records show a hookup date of August 26, 1887. The building is not included in any survey or inventory, and has been determined not to be an historical resource under CEQA.
The approximately 2,539 sq. ft. project site is located at 1070 Sanchez Street, west side of Sanchez Street, between Elizabeth Street and 24th Street, in the Noe Valley neighborhood of San Francisco; Lot 3 in Assessor’s Block 3654 in an RH-3 (House, Three-Family) District and 40-X Height and Bulk District.
