The guidelines are presented to convey the objectives of the City, School District and community. Innovative and imaginative site design and architectural solutions prepared within the context of the guidelines are encouraged. A traffic study, prepared by Wilbur Smith and Associates, indicates that traffic impacts from the senior housing project will be less than the range specified for the parcel in the City's adopted Northgate Activity Center Plan and zoning action Z84-6. The senior housing project sponsors therefore will not be required to pay traffic mitigation fees.

Development plans shall be processed in accordance with PD (Planned District) zoning regulations. 7.0 DESIGN GUIDELINES 7.1 Senior Housing The senior housing structures should be designed to compliment the surrounding residential development. The "bulk" of the buildings should be minimized by staggering the locations and heights of the buildings. Building locations and setbacks shall be designed so that open space used from surrounding existing residences on Los Ranchitos Road are preserved wherever possible. An adequate landscape buffer shall be maintained between the senior housing project and the adjoining residential project. The main parking area should be located adjacent to the northern property line so that an attractive landscaped area can be provided between the senior housing and residential developments. Included should be exterior landscaping and outside rest areas for occupants. 7.2 Height, Coveraae, Setback and Parkinq Provisions Height: Building heights shall be two to three stories with a maximum limitation of 36 feet, except that a tower may exceed 36 feet pursuant to City PD zoning approval.

The objective of that landscaping should be to screen the parking areas and vehicles and provide an attractive "streetscape". The design should include berms of varying heights and locations and a variety of evergreen, deciduous and other colorful plant materials. 7.6 Frontage Improvements Development of the site will require construction of frontage improvements (curb, gutter and sidewalk) along Los Ranchitos Road in accordance with the alignment and other requirements of the City of San Rafael. 3 C I`i Y OF SAW RAFAEL ATTFST: VA—NNE M.
