But the house has a lot of bulk and mass for the tight building area (surrounded by slopes). Perception is that the house will loom over the neighborhood. Pull back from street and lower height overall. 2. Consider lowering 14 foot ceiling at the first floor. Also consider lowering parapet. 3. Second story is acceptable, but restudy to press down, pull back and tighten up. 4. Restudy height of the structure. Height needs to be lowered. 5. Return with sections through the house and down to the street. 6. Landscaping could provide ample screening for neighbors and will be critical to the success of the project. Study screening and return with landscape plan. No action taken. The project can return for further conceptual/preliminary approval with the consent of the planner.

Solid design concept. Stronger design than before. 2. Project fits into the non-residential context established by the Montecito Union Elementary School and the commercial, institutional and civic development of the upper village. The gym will be better screened from San Ysidro Road than these other buildings. 3. MBAR appreciates that design team listened to comments and reduced the heights and sizes of the buildings. ` 4. Some concern that gym, by design, will be too low to have a lot of use. But issue of use is subject to MPC jurisdiction. 5. Colors and materials are excellent. Like the lesser use of stone. Like the breakup of materials.
