A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
TUSTIN APPROVING DESIGN REVIEW 02-037, CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT 02-029, AND VARIANCE 02-004 AUTHORIZING THE
DEVELOPMENT OF 376 RESIDENTIAL UNITS (198 MULTIPLE
FAMILY UNITS AND 178 PATIO HOMES) AND A PARK SITE ON A
31.64 ACRE PARCEL WITHIN PLANNING AREA 20 OF THE MCAS-
TUSTIN SPECIFIC PLAN
The Planning Commission of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
Ao
That a proper application for Design Review 02-037 was submitted
by John Laing Homes for development of 376 residential units (198
multiple family units and 178 patio homes) and on a 31.64-acre site
within Planning Area 20 of the MCAS-Tustin Specific Plan, and
Conditional Use Permit 02-029 for development patio homes, and
Variance 02-004 for reduction of building setback along the bus
turn out on Edinger Avenue;
B.
That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for said
application on March, 10, 2003, by the Planning Commission;
C.
That the proposed project is located with the "MCAS-Tustin Specific
Plan" land use designation of the General Plan, which provides for
residential development and conforms to the MCAS Tustin Specific
Plan, in that multiple family residential units are permitted and patio
homes are conditionally permitted in Planning Area 20;
D.
That construction of the proposed patio homes will not be detrimental
to the health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the
persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed
use, 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, in that patio homes are designed as single family
detached units with condominium ownership of common areas.
E
Pursuant to the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan and Section 9272 of the
Tustin Municipal Code, the Planning Commission finds that the
location, size, architectural features, and general appearance of the
proposed development will not impair the orderly and harmonious
development of the area, the present or future development therein,
or the occupancy as a whole. In making such findings, the
Commission has considered at least the following items:
1. Height, bulk, and area of buildings.
2. Setbacks and site planning.
3. Exterior materials and colors.

6. Towers, chimneys, roof structures, flagpoles, radio and
television antennae.
7. Location, height, and standards of exterior illumination.
8. Landscaping, parking area design, and traffic circulation.
9. Location and appearance of equipment located outside an
enclosed structure.
10. Location and method of refuse storage.
11. Physical relationship of proposed structures to existing
structures in the neighborhood.
Appearance and design relationship of proposed structures to
existing structures and possible future structures in the
neighborhood and public thoroughfares.
Proposed signage.
Development Guidelines and criteria as adopted by the City
Council.
F.
That the applicant has requested approval of Tentative Tract Map
16474 in conjunction with the applications for Design Review 02-037,
Conditional Use Permit 02-029, and Variance 02-004, and findings
and conditions of approval related to dedication of necessary right-of-
way and provision of necessary infrastructure improvements have
been included in Resolution No. 3863.
Go
The proposed development meets all required development
standards for development of multiple family residential and patio
homes, with the exception of the forty (40) foot building setback
from Edinger Avenue along the required bus turn out, which will
result in an uneven street right-of-way and affects building setbacks
related to three units. The applicant has requested a reduction from
the forty (40) feet to a minimum of thirty-two (32) feet adjacent to
the bus turn out area. There are special circumstances applicable
to the property with respect to shape and location, in that the strict
application of the development standards of the MCAS Tustin
Specific Plan deprives this property of privileges enjoyed by other
properties under identical zoning classification.
H,
The project complies with special development requirements of
Planning Area 20 (Section 3.9.3 J) regarding the required
provisions of affordable housing.
That a Final Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental
Impact Report for the MCAS Tustin Reuse Plan and Specific Plan
(FEIS/EIR) was prepared and certified, which considered the
potential development of 588 residential units and that the
proposed project includes 376 units or 212 units fewer than was
considered in the FEIS/EIR. A checklist was prepared that finds all
potential impacts of the project were addressed by the certified
Resolution 3864
DR 02-037, CUP 02-029, VAR 02-004

considered in the FEIS/EIR. A checklist was prepared that finds all
potential impacts of the project were addressed by the certified
FEIS/EIR and no additional impacts have been identified; all
applicable mitigation measures in the FEIS/EIR have been included
as conditions of approval. The Planning Commission has adopted
Resolution No. 3861 finding that the FEIS/EIR adequately
addressed all potential impacts related to the project.
II.
The Planning Commission hereby approves Design Review 02-037,
Conditional Use Permit 02-029, and Variance 02-004 for development of
376 residential units on a 31.64 acre parcel within Planning Area 20 of the
MCAS-Tustin Specific Plan, subject to the conditions contained in Exhibit
A attached hereto.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Tustin Planning
Commission, held on the 10th day of March, 2003.
