Item No. 3 (continued) 1. Redwood City has architectural control on single-family dwellings with respect to roof overhangs, roofing materials, and siding materials. (Section 45.3 -a -3 of the Zoning Ordinance). 2. A prefabricated metal, warehouse type sloping roof on a dwelling is industrial, not residential, in character and incompatible in this neighborhood where other sloping roofs are shingled. 3. Prefabricated metal clad buildings are specifically prohibited in the "CP" Commercial Park District (Section 16.10 -b of the Zoning Ordinance) and, by implication, should be prohibited in more restrictive districts, including all residential districts. 4. The type of roof proposed would give a dwelling the appearance of a low- quality trailer or factory -built house as opposed to the higher - quality design found in mobile homes and factory built homes today. 5. Section 45.3 -a -3 was adopted in 1981 to avoid inappropriate design in single - family dwellings and duplexes in addition to other kinds of properties.
