BACKGROUND
The property is located on West First Street between A and B streets and is surrounded by
residential uses to the east, north, and northwest; a service station to the west; and offices
and commercial uses to the south across First Street (Attachment A -Location Map). The
site is a 26,496 square foot lot currently improved with a 5,003 square foot abandoned
restaurant building (formerly Shakey's Pizza).
On June 26, 2006, the Zoning Administrator approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 06-
005 authorizing the temporary placement of modular structures to accommodate a
temporary day care facility on the subject property for the period of six (6) months. On
November 27, 2006, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 4044 approving
CUP 06-010 and Design Review (DR) 06-015 authorizing the conversion and remodel
of an existing restaurant building into a daycare facility for ninety-six (96) children and
nine (9) teachers. The permanent daycare project (also known as Cathy's Kids Club),
was never implemented and the entitlements have expired.
The property has been vacant for several years and has fallen into disrepair (see
Attachment B -Existing Site Photos). The property has become a prominent eyesore
in the community and is the source of complaints to the Community Development and.
Police departments. To resolve these issues and expedite the entitlement process, the
proposed project is being brought forward to the Commission for approval of the
proposed use and conceptual approval of the site plan, and exterior improvements. The
Planning Commission consideration is currently limited to review of only the type of use
and conceptual plans (site and elevations). If approved by the Planning Commission,
City staff will be responsible for ensuring that the final design and site improvements are
in compliance with all applicable requirements of the Tustin City Code, First Street Specific
Plan, and building codes at the time of plan check. Should the final project proposal
require exceptions to the TCC or FSSP, the Community Development Director reserves
the right to forward the project for Planning Commission consideration (proposed
Condition 1.4), if necessary.
DISCUSSION
Zoning
The First Street Specific Plan (FSSP) is the regulatory planning document that governs the
First Street corridor from the SR-55 Freeway east to Newport Avenue. The specific plan
breaks up the corridor into planning units and sub-areas which designate primary and
secondary uses (i.e. commercial, office, restaurant, mixed use, hotel, residential) that are
permitted and conditionally permitted.
The property is located in Subarea 1, Planning Unit 14, where the primary use is
designated as Commercial and the secondary use is designated as Office, Within the
"Office as a Secondary Use" designation, professional offices for chiropractors, doctors,

and others licensed by the State of California to practice the healing arts (including clinics
for out-patients) are permitted by right. Although the proposed use is permitted outright,
Section 111.1.3.b of the FSSP requires approval of a site plan prior to issuance of use and
building permits, and states that the authority for approval of a Site Plan shall rest with the
Planning Commission. Additionally, the current proposed use (physical therapy office)
differs from the previous conditionally approved use by the Planning Commission (daycare
facility). Therefore, the project is being brought before the Planning Commission for
consideration of the proposed use, site plan, and elevations.
Building Design
The site and the existing building are proposed to be redesigned to accommodate a
physical therapy office. The proposed interior upgrades include new walls, floors, ceiling,
and lighting. The proposed exterior modifications include new arcade upgrades,
replastering and repainting, parking lot upgrades and new site lighting and landscaping
(see Attachment C -Submitted Plans for details). The architecture is similar to that which
the Planning Commission approved in 2006 for the daycare facility. All proposed
upgrades will be reviewed for code compliance at the time of building plan check.
Site Improvements and Parking
The off-street parking requirement for Medical-Dental Professional uses in the FSSP is six
(6) parking spaces per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. At 5,005 square feet, the
building is required to have 30 parking spaces. The parking area is proposed to be
reconfigured to accommodate a total of 30 parking spaces, in conformance with the off-
street parking requirement. If approved staff will review final parking lot design, landscape
areas and quantities, on-site circulation, and site ingress and egress for safety and
conformance with applicable standards at the time of plan check.
Code Enforcement Actions
The property is currently in a state of public nuisance. Several code violations have been
observed and code enforcement actions were taken to remedy the situation. In addition,
Notices of Violations and Order were recorded against the property to ensure future
property owners} is(are) aware of the public nuisance existing on the property.
Outstanding violations are related to the repair and/or replacement of: interior plumbing,
mechanical, and electrical work; roof, overhangs and posts; damaged parapet; parking lot
surface condition; and exterior lighting and painting. Fulfillment of the proposed project and
conditions of approval will bring the property into code compliance. Conditions have been
added to ensure correction of all outstanding code violations and to require the property
owner to reimburse the City for code enforcement actions related to the nuisance
conditions.

FINDINGS
A decision to approve this request may be supported by the following findings:
The proposed office use is a permitted secondary use in the subarea planning unit
of the First Street Specific Plan, subject to site plan approval by the Planning
Commission.
As conditioned, the establishment, maintenance, and operation of an office use is
compatible with other surrounding commercial and residential uses and will not be
detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the persons
residing or working in the neighborhood, nor be injurious or detrimental to the
property and improvements in the neighborhood of the subject property, or to the
general welfare of the City of Tustin.
3. The location, size, architectural features and general appearance of the proposed
development will not impair the orderly and harmonious development of the area,
the present or future development therein, the occupancy thereof, or the community
as a whole.
4. The proposed site and building improvements will rehabilitate a deteriorated
property, eliminate a blight condition, and enhance the subject site and the First
Street corridor as a whole.
As conditioned, conformance with all other applicable development standards will
be verified by staff during plan check submittal.
6. The proposed site design and architecture is consistent with the First Street
Specific Plan Design Guidelines in that the proposed remodel would utilize
architecture, materials, and colors suggested in the Guidelines.
