County planners have asked Hidden Dragon, L.L.C., for more information about the 8,300-square-foot development planned for 135 Balboa Ave. in Inverness Park, a project that would raze four buildings that once constituted a Russian Orthodox monastery—St. Eugene’s Hermitage—to build a two-story home, a caretaker’s residence and several other buildings. In an Oct. 3 letter to project manager Chris Stanton, county planner Heidi Scoble said the county required a plan for stormwater control from a certified architect or engineer, dimensions and materials for a proposed entry gate, proof a driveway turnaround could meet dimensional requirements and had approval from the fire department, plus several minor labeling and data requirements in the application within 30 days. The delay means that Ms. Scoble is accepting written comments until the deputy zoning administrator hearing, a date that will remain unscheduled so long as the project application is incomplete. Several Inverness residents have scrutinized the plans, fearing the project will be out of scale. In an email sent to neighbors almost a year ago, on Oct. 14, 2013, as we “begin the process of building our home in your lovely neck of the woods,” the property owners—now obscured behind a limited liability company—introduced themselves to their neighbors as Tim Westergren, a co-founder of Pandora Radio, and Smita Singh, a founding director of the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation’s Global Development Program and a governing board member of multiple nonprofits like Oxfam America. “Our program will be light on the land, and will be sustainably designed and built,” they wrote. “We are big believers in integrating a home with its natural environment—minimizing the disturbance of both the land and the surrounding community.” They estimated their move-in date, “realistically,” to be sometime in 2016.
