RESOLUTION NO. 3015
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF TUSTIN RECOMMENDING TO THE TUSTIN CITY
COUNCIL DENIAL OF VESTING TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP
NO. 91-288
The Planning Commission of the City of Tustin does hereby
resolve as follows:
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as
follows:
ae
That Vesting Tentative Parcel Map No. 91-288
was submitted to the Planning Commission by J.
P. Greubel Company for consideration.
That a public hearing was duly noticed,
called, and held for said map on March 23,
1992. The public hearing was closed on March
23, 1992, and the item was continued to April
13, 1992, as a consent calendar item.
Ce
That the proposed subdivision is not in
conformance with the Tustin Area General Plan,
particularly the Housing and Scenic Highways
Elements as evidenced by the following:
·
The map proposes a lot layout with a
predominantly inward orientation which is
inconsistent with adjacent single family
development to the north, east and west
of the site which primarily addresses
Holt and Warren Avenues. The Housing
Element identifies an objective to
conserve existing neighborhoods and the
proposed map would introduce a
contrasting character of neighborhood by
directing access to each of the lots from
an internal private street, rather than
from Holt or Warren Avenues.
·
The proposed map has a lot layout that
results in rear ana side yards along Holt
and Warren Avenues creating a need to
provide privacy walls for these yard
areas. The Scenic Highways Element
identifies an objective to design walls
and other barriers along arterial streets
that provide a pleasant and scenic effect
to the area. The walls for this
development would be at least six feet
high and border Holt and Warren Avenues

breaking the visual corridor currently
maintained along Holt Avenue, a secondary
arterial.
Pursuant to Section 9335.03 and 9335.09 of the
City of Tustin Subdivision Ordinance, the
subject Vesting Tentative Tract Map is
inconsistent with the Zoning Ordinance in that
only three units are permitted on the site by
the site's current E-4 Zoning and the subject
site could not be developed with four units
without approval of a zone change and multiple
variances to the City's Zoning Ordinance.
That the site is not physically suitable for
the type of development proposed as evidenced
by the following:
I ·
The existing boundaries of the subject
property is such that the subdivision
includes the creation of two flag lots
resulting in an disorderly development
pattern in comparison to adjacent single
family development.
·
The proposed access to the subdivision
combined with the type of development
results in the creation of a substandard
street in comparison with adjacent single
family development.
That the site is not physically suitable for
the proposed density of development as
evidenced by the following:
·
The minimum lot size required for R-1
(Single Family Residential District)
zoning can not be achieved without the
approval of deviations from the City's
Private Street Standards, which includes
providing a paved street width of 28 feet
where 36 feet is required, eliminating a
five-foot wide sidewalk along one side of
the street, eliminating a cul-de-sac
terminus design and providing a shared
drive approach for Lots 2 and 4.

·
The minimum lot size required for R-1
(Single Family Residential District)
zoning must be met and the lot layout
proposed to accommodate this standard
results in variances for front yard
setbacks and minimum lot widths. Without
the approval of these variances the
minimum lot width could not be achieved;
therefore the map layout is not
considered suitable for the R-1 (Single
Family Residential District) density
proposed.
II. The Planning Commission hereby recommends to the
City Council denial of Vesting Tentative Parcel Map
No 91-288.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Tustin
Planning Commission, held on the 13th day of April, 1992.
