  1. Looking forward to seeing details on 4040 and 3212 Division. Since these lots are, respectively, 60 x 100 and 50 x 100, in CS zone, these could represent a new typology for Division St.. Also, they may end up being the first for-profit buildings utilizing IZ, pending resolution of the 3 Sellwood building applications by UDG.

  2. Type II design review for 5036 Sandy has been appealed by the neighborhood on the grounds that it doesn’t meet Guidelines D-4 “Locate parking in a manner that minimizes negative impacts…” (the appeal argues that “not providing adequate parking has an enormous impact on the area”, so, the lack of locating enough parking is the issue?), and D-7 “Reduce the impact by..incorporating elements of nearby…buildings such as building details, massing, proportions….” (and they argue that “we do not feel that scale was fully appreciated by the staff”. Perhaps that’s because “scale” is not mentioned in the guideline?)

    Clearly the neighborhood just wishes to delay the project, even though they don’t have a case. Presumably they’ll appeal to Council if denied at DC. More reasons to allow use of Community Design Guidelines, even on buildings over 55′, in the DOZA changes.

  3. Actually 5036 Sandy is being appealed by a neighboring homeowner, across the street. Perhaps they won’t appeal to Council.
