Oehl Residence – New Single-family Residence
(1326 Spraddle Creek Road/Lot 14, Spraddle Creek Estates)
Ron Oehl, represented by Berglund
Architects (Hans Berglund), has submitted a Conceptual Review Application for a new Single-family dwelling, including an Employee Housing Unit, at 1326 Spraddle Creek Road.
This item
was heard at the December 5, 2007 Design Review Board meeting. The DRB identified the issue of separation under Section 14-10-6 below:
14-10-6: RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT:
A.The purpose
of this section is to ensure that residential development be designed in a manner that creates an architecturally integrated structure with unified site development. Dwelling units and
garages shall be designed within a single structure, except as set forth in subsection B of this section, with the use of unified architectural and landscape design. A single structure
shall have common roofs and building walls that create enclosed space substantially above grade. Unified architectural and landscape design shall include, but not be limited to, the
use of compatible building materials, architectural style, scale, roof forms, massing, architectural details, site grading and landscape materials and features.
The applicant is requesting
the DRB’s re-consideration of the separation. The applicant believes the design is a single structure as defined by Section 14-10-6 and submitted an email to Staff with the following
issues to consider:
There is a common ‘green roof’ between the garage and house
A conventional copper covered roof instead of the ‘green roof’ would create significant drainage issues,
which the applicant can explain.
An enclosed habitable GRFA connection exists between the garage and house
An exposed wall exists between the garage and house (approx 6x11 feet – 55%
of total wall area)
A bridge structure exists between the garage and house
A retaining wall connects the garage and house
Consistent architectural style, scale, roof forms, massing,
details and building materials exist on the garage and house
