MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 13, 2012
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: TRANSMITTAL OF DRAFT: CODE AMENDMENT 2012 -03 (ORDINANCE 1418)
REGARDING MINOR UPDATE TO THE CITY OF TUSTIN PARKING CODE
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Planning Commission receive the Community Development Department's draft Code
Amendment 2012 -03 (Ordinance 1418) regarding proposed minor updates to the City of Tustin
Parking Code and tentatively set the item for public hearing on December 11, 2012.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
Staff is providing a draft of Code Amendment 2012 -03 to the Planning Commission to begin the
process of reviewing the proposed changes in anticipation of a formal presentation and
consideration at a public hearing in December. When the hearing is set, all discretionary actions
necessary to implement the update, including any required environmental documents will be
presented.
The Parking Code (Tustin City Code Section 9260 et al) was adopted in 2008 and consolidated
the off- street parking standards into one code section and established parking space and
parking lot design standards. The proposed code amendment would provide minor text
amendments to the Parking Code that strengthens and clarifies the City of Tustin off- street
parking standards, enhance applicability and improve implementation.
The Parking Code has now been implemented over the last four (4) years, which has provided
staff the opportunity to determine areas for improvement. Staff initiated the proposed Code
Amendment (CA) 2012 -03 in order to strengthen parts of the Code such as:
• Clarifying maintenance requirements;
• Establish parking requirements for new land uses listed in zoning districts;
• Establish parking criteria for small and large commercial centers;
• Combine parking design standards for residential and non - residential uses;
• Address loading spaces;
• Update figures;
• Add definitions.
Included in this transmittal is the Draft Ordinance (proposed amendment) and a full copy of the
existing parking code to assist the Commission with understanding the proposed ordinance. A
