DRC Regular Meeting - September 28, 2026 - City of San Gabriel

The City of San Gabriel Design Review Commission’s regular meeting on September 28, 2026, considered residential design-review applications and a proposed indoor athletic facility. The Commission approved the two-story residence at 508 Jirona Avenue after discussion of neighborhood character, privacy, landscaping, and air-conditioning noise. Conditions included providing specifications for the condenser acoustic barrier and balcony privacy screen, revising privacy planting, and having staff review tree-related details. The Commission also approved the two-story residence at 944 Walnut Street, with a condition to coordinate additional privacy screening with the city landscape architect, and approved the residence at 829 Anderson Way with a similar privacy-screening condition. The votes on these three projects were unanimous among the commissioners present; one commissioner was absent.

Staff also presented a proposed 7,575-square-foot warehouse-style building for an indoor basketball court at 305 Augustino Road. The Planning Commission had previously granted a conditional use permit and a shared-parking reduction of 24 spaces from the 61 required across the combined parcels.
