(a) Compatibility. All new single and two family residential development shall reflect, complement, and preserve the nature and character of existing adjacent residential development.
(b) Building Placement and Mass. All new homes shall conform in street orientation and massing to adjacent homes.
(c) Harmonious Aesthetics. The following is a list of objectives to achieve infill development that is characteristic of the existing structures:
(1) New infill development shall be compatible with the neighboring structures in terms of proportion, size, mass and height.
(2) Similar materials, colors, architectural details and roof pitch shall be used on all sides and on all structures on the site and shall be harmonious with adjacent properties.
(3) The creation of a vertical canyon effect between structures shall be minimized. For instance, when a one story structure is proposed next to a two story structure, the space between the two buildings shall increase as wall height increases.
(d) Any improvement which is determined by the Planning Director to be in conflict with this section shall be forwarded to the Planning Commission for review.
