RESOLUTION NO. 3257
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF TUSTIN, APPROVING VARIANCE 94-002 TO REDUCE THE
REQUIRED LANDSCAPE SETBACK FOR THE ULTIMATE STREET
IMPROVEMENTS ON THE FUTURE NEWPORT AVENUE FROM
VALENCIA AVENUE TO A POINT APPROXIMATELY 370 FEET
NORTH OF VALENCIA FROM 30 FEET TO APPROXIMATELY 15
FEET ON THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 15442 DEL AMO
AVENUE.
~ ',
The Planning Commission of the City of Tustin does hereby
resolve as follows:
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
ae
That a proper application, Variance 9'4-002, has
been filed by the Orange County Teachers Credit
Union to reduce the required landscape setback for
the ultimate street improvements on the future
Newport Avenue from Valencia Avenue to a point
approximately 370 feet north of Valencia from 30
feet to approximately 15 feet on the property
located at 15442 Del Amo Avenue.
Be
That a public hearing was duly noticed, called and
held by the Planning Commission on April 25, 1994.
Co
The Planning Commission has reviewed the subject
request, for a variance to decrease the landscape
setback on the future Newport Avenue street
frontage and has made the following findings:
1·
Granting the variance shall not constitute a
grant of special privileges inconsistent with
the limitations upon other properties in the
vicinity and district in which the project is
situated in that there are other properties
within the PCESP on Del A mo with less than the
minimum 30 foot landscape setback. For
example, the property at 15222 Del Amo is
presently developed with a 22 foot landscape
setback to the parking lot.
·
There are unusual or exceptional circumstances
applicable to the property, including size,
shape, topography, location or surroundings
which deprive the subject property of
privileges enjoyed by other properties in the

area, in that with the existing structure
remaining and the site parking lot
reconfigured .to comply with applicable drive
aisle widths and stall sizes, the maximum
amount of landscaping along the street
frontages are provided. In addition',~ the
requirements to dedicate the ultimate right-
of-way also reduces the amount of land between
the existing structure and the street. Even
with the reduction in the landscape setbacks,
the intent of the street scape concept to
provide parking lot screening, an 8 foot side
meandering sidewalk and street trees
consistent with the PCESP Landscape Concept
Plan can be accomplished.
It has been determined that Final Environmental
Impact Report (EIR 90-1), Certified on December 17,
1990 in conjunction with the Pacific Center East
Specific Plan, adequately addresses environmental
consideration associated with the proposed project.
No additional environmental documentation will be
prepared.
II. The Planning Commission hereby approves Variance 94-002
to reduce the required landscape setback for the ultimate
street improvements on the future Newport Avenue from
Valencia Avenue to a point approximately 370 feet north
of Valencia from 30 feet to approximately 15 feet on the
property located at 15442 Del Amo Avenue, subject to the
conditions contained in Exhibit A of Planning.Commission
Resolution No. 3256 and 3255, incorporated herein by
reference.
