This proposal is to add extra occupancy to the existing single-family dwelling at 738 Campfire
Drive (Lot 6 Block 1 of the Trailhead Subdivision) to accommodate 4 persons in the existing 3
bedrooms. This proposal will use existing site and building conditions and include the addition
of a permanently fixed wall-mounted bicycle rack in the 2-car garage. No structural changes will
be done to the building or impervious area added to the site.
The property is owned by Johnathon Huynh, who is the proposal applicant. The property is
within the Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood (LMN) zone district and is subject to a Project
Development Plan (PDP/Type 1). The conceptual review meeting for this proposal was held on
Thursday August 13, 2020.
The home has 2164.4 square feet of habitable space consisting of 575.5 square feet on the first
floor, 1045.5 square feet on the second floor, and 543.4 square feet in the finished basement.
These dimensions are consistent with the Land Use Code, excluding closet, laundry, storage,
and utility space. This exceeds the minimum required amount of 1400 square feet required for
4 inhabitants.
Three on-site parking spaces are provided by the 2-car garage and the concrete driveway. For
this project the concrete driveway will be counted as a parking space (as per Will Lindsay of
Planning Services).
The bicycle parking requirement will be met by installing wall-mounted bicycle racks for 5 bikes
in the extra space on the East side of the garage, as portrayed in the site plan. The racks will be
permanently fixed to the structure’s wooden struts and meet the Land Use Code rack and
maneuvering space dimensions requirements.
This project will have no impact on the existing trees, therefore forestry planning was not
necessary. Additionally, no ecological impacts will occur as a result of this project. Finally, the
Traffic Impact Study requirement was waived.
