Project Description
The applicant requests Design Review approval to construct a new lighting system at an athletic stadium (Dino Ghilotti Motta Athletic Stadium) on a site developed with an educational institution (Marin Catholic) in the unincorporated community of Kentfield. The lighting system proposed for athletic stadium includes four galvanized steel standards (poles), equipped with different fixture arrays, mounted on pre-cast concrete bases of approximately 16 square feet each. The poles would reach a maximum height of 80 feet above grade and be symmetrically positioned in a rectangular formation surrounding the athletic field, approximately at the 10-yard line. With this arrangement, the proposed lighting system would maintain the following setbacks: 363 feet from the front northern property line; 175 feet, 8 1/4 inches from the eastern side property line; 643 feet, 4 inches from the western side property line; and 11 feet, 3 inches from the southern rear property line.
Design Review approval is required pursuant to Section 22.20.060(F)(2) of the Marin County Development Code because the project entails the construction of detached accessory structures that exceed the height limit for the applicable conventional zoning district.
Zoning: R1-B2 (Residential, Single-Family District with the “-B2” Minimum Lot Size Combining District)
Countywide Plan Designation: PF-SF5 (Low Density Residential Public Facility)
Community Plan (if applicable): Kentfield/Greenbrae Community Plan
