AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 5, 2013 TO: JEFFREY C. PARKER, CITY MANAGER FROM: CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Agenda Item Reviewed: Finance Director SUBJECT: WORKSHOP: TUSTIN LEGACY REMAINING SITES SUMMARY: On June 29, 2013, the City Council conducted a workshop regarding the disposition of the remaining City -owned sites at Tustin Legacy. The City Council provided staff with comments, direction, and authorized staff to hire The Planning Center to conduct further analysis on Tustin Legacy remaining sites. This report and the PowerPoint attachment summarizes The Planning Center study outcomes. RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council receive the study and provide staff with direction on the next steps. BACKGROUND: On June 29, 2013, the City Council conducted a workshop regarding Tustin Legacy remaining sites. At the workshop, the following topical areas were discussed: Current Land Uses: Following the closure of the base, the City adopted the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan. The MCAS Tustin Specific Plan is the zoning of the property and sets the rules of the land for Tustin Legacy. For planning purposes, Tustin Legacy is organized into eight (8) neighborhoods. The neighborhood identifies generally what is intended to be developed in that area. City Owned Sites: After the contract was terminated with the Master Developer, the City prepared a Disposition Strategy and the City Council, at the time, authorized the City to take over the remaining sites and act as the land developer. In this role, the City became responsible for marketing and selling the remaining sites to builders. City Council Workshop December 5, 2013 Page 2 As the land developer, the City entered into agreements with several developments potential as follows: • The Irvine Company - 533 apartments • St. Anton - 225 affordable apartments • Standard Pacific Corp. - 375 detached homes • The Regency - commercial center The remaining sites include areas within Neighborhoods D, E, and G with development potential as follows: • Neighborhood D: 358 residential units, 4,757,279 sqft. non-residential. • Neighborhood E: 1,267,324 sqft. non-residential . • Neighborhood G: 614 dwelling units,466.637 sqft. non-residential. The City Council was asked at the workshop if a study should be completed to determine if development at Tustin Legacy should continue as planned or if new opportunities should be explored taking advantage of the changing market conditions as well as ensuring quality development occurs. Linear Park: The prior master development concept included a Linear Park concept. There are a total of 170 acres of open space that are planned across Tustin Legacy with a linear connectivity to all neighborhoods. The City Council was asked if this concept is still the desire and/or if additional flexibility/opportunities could be explored. • Bridges: At the time when the Tustin Legacy Community Partners developed a Concept Plan, several vehicular and pedestrian bridges were introduced. These bridges include some iconic features that are costly to build. Recognizing the City's limited finances, the City Council was asked if these bridges should remain or should other alternatives be explored. • Opportunities and Constraints: Several opportunities and constraints were discussed showing where the City is at current time and where the City could be in the near and distant future. Since the workshop, the Planning Center and staff have worked diligently to find out if new alternatives should be explored considering new market conditions, neighboring cities developments, and the desire to create a sense of place and unique identity for Tustin Legacy. Additionally, to avoid disjointed development from occurring, the following seven guiding principals were used in study: 1. Preserve Linear Park concept; 2. Maximize connectivity; 3. Ensure adequate circulation systems; 4. Promote quality design, architecture, and landscaping; 5. Create a sense of identity and place; Ci+y Council Workshop December 5, 2013 Page 3 6. Develop enhanced mix of land uses; and, 7. Address building form, design, and placement. The attached presentation would guide the City Council with a summary where we left off at the last workshop, 4he analysis by The Planning Center as to alternatives to explore, the next steps should the City Council decide to amend the Specific Pian, and the potential challenges that might surface as a result of any amendments. The Planning Center and City staff will be available at the workshop to present the new study and answer any questions that the City Council may have. Elizabeth A.
