RECOMMENDATION
That the Zoning Administrator adopt Zoning Administrator Action 10-002, approving
Concept Plan (CP) 09-001 (Attachment B).
BACKGROUND
On February 3, 2003, the Tustin City Council adopted the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan to
establish development regulations and procedures for reuse of the former Marine Corps
Air Station (MCAS) Tustin.
The MCAS Tustin Specific Plan divides the former base into Planning Areas. Planning
Area 1 is planned to support various educational/institutional uses including the South
Orange County Community College District (SOCCCD) which owns or leases portions
of sub-planning areas 1-A and 1-E. Section 3.3.2.A of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan
identifies permitted and conditionally permitted uses within Planning Areas 1-A and 1-E
of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan.
Section 4.2.2 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan requires approval of a Concept Plan by
the Zoning Administrator prior to the submittal of a development proposal to ensure that
the integrity, purpose and intent of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan is maintained and
satisfied at the earliest stages of site planning. On March 16, 2010, the Tustin City
Council adopted Ordinance 1379 (Specific Plan Amendment 10-001) providing
additional flexibility in determining allowable square footage within Planning Area 1-A,
and to allow the submittal/approval of a concept plan for a portion of asub-planning
area. The Zoning Administrator may make modifications to the proposed project as a
result of the public meeting on the matter.
The SOCCCD has submitted an application for Concept Plan for Phase 3A, a sub-area
encompassing a portion of Planning Area 1-A and 1-E (see Figure 1).

DISCUSSION
Site and Surrounding Properties
The Phase 3A site is located in the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan (SP-1) Zoning District
and MCAS Tustin Specific Plan General Plan Land Use Designation. It is located within
the SOCCCD'S Advanced Technology Education Park (ATEP) campus.
The South Orange County Community College District Advanced Technology &
Education Park site is approximately sixty-eight (68) acres. The Phase 3A project site is
generally located north and south of Valencia Avenue, east of Red Hill Avenue, west of
Armstrong Avenue, and north of the future Warner Avenue (see Figure 1 and Attachment
A). The existing ATEP campus sits on two acres of the project site, at the northeast
corner of Valencia Avenue and Red Hill Avenue, and is improved with classrooms,
administration offices, and a parking lot. The Phase 3A project area includes
approximately 28 acres in two areas to the north and south of Valencia Avenue (See
Site Plan). The area north of Valencia Avenue is approximately seven acres and
bounded by Valencia Avenue to the south, Lansdowne Road to the west, and includes
McCain Smith Road to the north and east. The area south of Valencia Avenue is
approximately 21 acres and bounded by Valencia Avenue to the north, Hope Drive and
Red Hill Avenue to the west, vacant land, abandoned military buildings and the Orange
County Sheriffs Training Facility to the east, and vacant land and abandoned military
buildings to the south.

The project is a request by the SOCCCD for approval of the Phase 3A Concept Plan to
support the future development of the proposed Phase 3A area of the ATEP campus,
not to exceed 305,000 square feet, at Tustin Legacy. The campus would have a focus
on six academic areas, which are as follows:
• Entertainment Arts and Technology
• Nursing
• Design Model Making and Rapid Prototyping
• Optics and Photonics
• Biotechnology
• Workforce Development
The Phase 3A buildings and other campus amenities would primarily be located south
of Valencia Avenue and east of Hope Drive. Phase 3A includes the construction of two
buildings, one being a "Dedicated Education Building" and the other being a "Joint-Use
Education/Communication Arts Building" (see Figure 2).

~oovau~vmumrn...mmuaumnc~-nom CONCEPIITAL SCIE LAYOUT -
The Dedicated Education Building is proposed as a four-story structure located at the
southeast corner of Valencia Avenue and Hope Drive and has approximately 195,000
square feet of floor area. The building is roughly L-shaped with frontages along
Valencia Avenue and Hope Drive.
Zoning Administrator
July 26, 2010
CP 09-001
Page 5
The Joint-Use Education/Communication Arts Building is also proposed as a four-story
structure. It would be located southeast of the Dedicated Education Building and have
approximately 110,000 square feet of floor area. The building would be used for
studios, laboratories, classrooms, administrative offices and support facilities.
The subject property will be developed and used consistent with the Tustin General
Plan, the MCAS Tustin Reuse Plan and Specific Plan (including without limitation the
development standards therein as described in Section 4.2 of the Conveyance
Agreement), the Cooperative Agreement D02-119 between the City of Tustin, Orange
County Flood Control District and County of Orange, the Agreement between the City of
Irvine and the City of Tustin regarding the Implementation, Timing and Funding of
Transportation/Circulation Mitigation for the MCAS Tustin Project, the Amendment to
the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement Between the City of Santa Ana and City of
Tustin Regarding the Tustin-Santa Ana Transportation System Improvement Authority,
any Redevelopment Plan enacted with respect to the SOCCCD property, the
Conveyance Agreement, and the Ground Lease.
All uses planned will also be consistent with the definition of an Advanced Technology
Education Campus as contained in the Conveyance Agreement between the SOCCCD
and City of Tustin, and educational uses permitted under the MCAS Tustin Specific
Plan. The definition of Advanced Technology Educational Campus means an education
oriented development which may include traditional and non-traditional advanced
education (extension and/or advanced degree opportunities), adult education,
continuing education, vocational, job and educational training, or other education and
training opportunities, as well as accessory uses when customarily associated with and
subordinate to the educational uses, listed above, that would include the following uses:
dormitory/student apartment housing; minor support commercial, office and retail
service uses including but not limited to food services; administrative offices; a post
office, medical/dental clinics; laboratories and office facilities used for basic and applied
research, testing and consulting; industrial/commercial business incubators which
support educational programs or provide educational opportunities; maintenance
facilities, structures and storage facilities, and guard houses, gates and other security
facilities and structures.
The site plan also shows an existing military chapel relocated at the southeasterly
corner of the project site. The status of the chapel and whether it will be utilized on-site
or moved off-site is unknown. If the building is not moved, it would be used for
classrooms, laboratories, administrative offices, food service and other support facilities
and the total square footage will be included within the Phase 3A's maximum 305,000
square feet permitted with the proposed Concept Plan approval. Use of the chapel
structure will also comply with the minimum building and landscaping setback areas and
parking required under the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan.
SOCCCD will identify in the subsequent Design Review Submittal for the Phase 3A site
the permitted subordinate or ancillary non-educational uses supporting the educational
activities within Phase 3A consistent with the definition in the Conveyance Agreement of
Zoning Administrator
July 26, 2010
CP 09-001
Page 6
Advanced Technology Education Campus. Any uses not listed in the Conveyance
Agreement are subject to a determination by the Community Development Director as
either permitted, permitted subject to a conditional use permit or prohibited, consistent
with the terms and conditions of the Specific Plan, the Conveyance Agreement, the
SOCCCD property quitclaim deed, and the Sublease (until the Sublease terminates).
SOCCCD will obtain permits and approvals for the Concept Plan in accordance with
sections 1.7.2 to 1.7.4 of the Conveyance Agreement.
Parking and Circulation
Table 3-6 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan identifies parking requirements for non-
residential uses. Based upon information provided by the SOCCCD, the Phase 3A
Concept Plan project meets the parking and circulation requirements of the Specific
Plan. In addition, a traffic study was prepared and evaluated with the adoption of the
MCAS Tustin Specific Plan. The proposed use was previously included in that analysis
and is within the on-site ADT development thresholds identified in Table 4-4 of the
MCAS Tustin Specific Plan. In addition, Condition 2.2a is proposed to ensure continued
compliance with parking requirements of the Specific Plan at the Design Review stage.
Concept Plan
Pursuant to Section 4.2.2.A of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan, preparation and
submittal of a Concept Plan is required to be submitted for any portion of asub-planning
area to document to insure that:
The necessary linkages are provided between the development project
and the Planning Area/Neighborhood in which it is located;
• The integrity of the Specific Plan and purpose and intent of each
Neighborhood is maintained; and,
Other requirements that are not included in the Specific Plan are identified
and satisfied.
MCAS Tustin Specific Plan Section 4.2.2.C requires the Zoning Administrator to
consider the following criteria prior to final action on a concept plan:
Continuity and adequacy of all circulation systems, such as roads, access
points, trails, pedestrian ways, and other infrastructure systems needed to
serve the project;
2. Continuity and design quality of architecture and renovations proposed, as
well as landscape and hardscape theme and treatments;
3. Satisfactory response to the urban design features specified in Chapter 2 and
under each Planning Area in Chapter 3;
Zoning Administrator
July 26, 2010
CP 09-001
Page 7
4. Conformity with the Non-Residential Land Use/Trip Budget, including
authorized adjustments; and
5. Compliance with other Specific Plan provisions.
The proposed project provides for continuity of vehicular, pedestrian, and infrastructure
facilities and linkages, including drainage facilities. As conditioned, the applicant will be
required to submit a subsequent Design Review application that will incorporate quality
architectural and landscape design and urban design features such as streetscape and
landscape concepts, site design, and architectural design and will incorporate the
requirements of the Specific Plan and other requirements such as the Uniform Building
Code and Construction Standards for Private Improvements. As conditioned, the
proposed project would also meet the intent and purposes as set forth in the MCAS
Tustin Specific Plan.
ENVIRONMENTAL
That on January 16, 2001, the City of Tustin certified the Program Final Environmental
Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report (FEIS/EIR) for the reuse and disposal of
MCAS Tustin. On April 3, 2006, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 06-43 approving
an Addendum to the FEIS/EIR. The proposed project is consistent with the MCAS Tustin
Specific Plan and is determined not to result in any new significant environmental
impacts, propose substantial changes or a substantial increase in the severity of any
previously identified significant impacts in the FEIS/EIR and Addendum. Moreover, no
new information of substantial importance has surfaced since certification of the FEIS/EIR
and Addendum. An Addendum to the FEIS/EIR was also adopted by SOCCCD on March
24, 2009. The Addendum supports the determination that the proposed project will not
result in any new significant environmental impacts or proposes substantial changes or
increases in the severity of any previously identified significant impacts in the FEIS/EIR.
