A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF TUSTIN, APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT (CUP) 2014 -03 TO ESTABLISH A 61000 SQ. FT.
RECREATIONAL /SPORT FOIL FENCING CENTER AT 1652
EDINGER AVENUE, SUITE B IN AN EXISTING TENANT
SPACE OF AN INDUSTRIAL OFFICE COMPLEX
The Planning Commission does hereby resolve as follows:
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A. That a proper application for CUP 2014 -03 was filed by G -Team Inc.,
of Golubitsky Fencing Center (GFC), requesting authorization to
establish and operate arecreational /sport facility for foil fencing within
an existing 6,000 square foot tenant space in the Tustin Business Park
(formerly Koll Center) located at 1652 Edinger Avenue, Suite B.
B. That the Planning Commission approve Resolution No. 4262 for Use
Determination (UD) 2014 -02 to establish recreational /sport facilities as
a conditionally permitted use within the Industrial (M) District.
C. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for CUP 2014-
03 in conjunction with UD 2014 -02 on August 26, 2014, by the
Planning Commission.
D. That the establishment, maintenance, and operation of the proposed
use will not, under the circumstances of this case, be detrimental to the
health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the persons
residing or working in the neighborhood, nor be injurious or detrimental
to the property and improvements in the neighborhood of the subject
property, or to the general welfare of the City of Tustin (the City) in that:
1. The Industrial (M) District allows industrial uses such as
manufacturing, assembly, warehousing, laboratories, and other
light industrial uses. Uses such as offices and other support
commercial uses, including instructional schools, are
conditionally permitted subject to the approval of a CUP. The
proposed recreational /sports foil fencing facility is similar to an
instructional school in that the proposed use operates in the
same manner as other instructional uses whereby each class is
taught by an instructor and multiple students and that the traffic
and parking needs are similar with such use.
2. The proposed GFC facility is located in a large multi- tenant
industrial office complex and potential conflicts between the use
and other tenants is not anticipated based on the hours of
operation which are typically after normal business hours,
adequate parking provided, and the conditions to be imposed.

Page 2
As conditioned, the number of occupants, types of activities
and hours of operation would be compatible with the
neighboring light industrial and office uses, and the applicant
would be required to notify the City of any changes to the use
of the facility.
3. As conditioned, no noise impacts are anticipated in that all
training activities shall be conducted entirely within the building
and would be required to comply with the City's Noise
Ordinance.
4. As conditioned, CUP 2014 -03 may be reviewed by the
Community Development Director, if necessary, to ensure
compatibility with surrounding uses. If the use is not operated
in accordance with CUP 2014 -03 or is found to be a nuisance
or negative impacts are affecting the surrounding uses, the
Community Development Director would have the authority to
impose additional conditions to eliminate the nuisance or
negative impacts or may initiate proceedings to revoke the
CUP.
5. The proposed use would not have any aesthetic impacts to the
area since no exterior modifications are proposed.
6. The City's Public Works Department, Police Department and
Building Division have reviewed and support the development
of the proposed project, as conditioned.
7. The applicant understands that the Industrial (M) zoning of the
property allows uses such as manufacturing, assembly,
warehousing, laboratories, and other light industrial uses and
does not object to these more intensive uses operating in close
proximity to the training facility.
E. This project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to Section 15301, Class
1 of the California Code of Regulations (Guidelines for the California
Environmental Quality Act).
II. The Planning Commission hereby approves CUP 2014 -03 authorizing the
establishment and operation of a recreational /sport facility for foil fencing
within an existing 6,000 square foot tenant space in the Tustin Business Park
(formerly Koll Center) located at 1652 Edinger Avenue, Suite B, subject to
the conditions contained within Exhibit A attached hereto.
