The brochures do not specify the building materials but depict various building contrasts including a mix of materials and roof design. The photos of existing homes provided by the applicant demonstrate a mix of vinyl siding and a stucco home. Additional photos taken by Staff of other homes in the subdivision illustrates that there is a mix of building materials and design elements consistent with the proposed DA provision and Design Manual.
