HUSTON, CITY MANAGER FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT SUBJECT: VESTING TENTATIVE TRACT MAP 14748 (CALIFORNIA pACIFIC HOMES/ 30N ROBERTS0N) FISCAL IMPACT There are no fiscal impacts associated with this project as this is an applicant initiated project. No City financial assistance is requested. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions: i · · Approve the environmental determination for the project by adopting Resolution No. 93-73; and APprove Vesting Tentative Tract 'Map 14748 by adopting' Resolution No. 93-74, as submitted or revised. BACKGROUND In 1991, the Planning Commission and City Council approved Tentative Tract 14381, a subdivision which created 155 lots for single-family dwellings, a recreation facility and open space corridors. This project is an expansion of the previously approved Presidio Project (Tract 14381) to create 12 new residential lots on Lot I, an area that had been reserved for the Eastern Transportation Corridor. Since the Transportation Corridor Agency no longer needs Lot I, the parcel can be developed and.incorporated into the Presidio Project. In order to ensure that these twelve (12) new lots are properly integrated into the Presidio site plan and to cOmply with the technical requirements of the Subdivision Map Act, this project incorporates thirty three (33) residential lots that were previously established with approval of Tract 14381. Some of these original lots have increased in size, and some of the dwellings have been re-oriented. In addition, since the law requires direct access to a public street for all tracts, this subdivision extends to Pioneer Road. The applicant proposes to utilize the same architectural plans currently under construction in the first phases of Presidio. City Council Report VTT 14748 July 19, 1993 Page 2 Located in Sector 2 of the East Tustin Specific Plan (ETSP), the project is bordered by Patriot Way on the north, Lot 4 of Tract 13627 (condominiums to the south, Jamboree Road~on the east and Pioneer Road on the west). 'The expansion area is at the north eastern edge of Tract 14381, adjacent to Jamboree Road and Patriot Way. Anticipated development in the vicinity includes single- family detached dwellings to the north and west. Prior to development, the City Council must approve the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map. At their regular meeting on June 28, 1993, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 3147 recommending that the City Council approve Vesting Tentative Tract Map 14748. In conjunction with this action, the Planning Commissin also adopted Resolution No. 3145 approving Design Review 92-043 and adopted Resolution No. 3146 approving Conditional Use Permit 93-001 authorizing use of the Cluster Development Standards for this project pursuant to Section 3.6.3 (B) of the ETSP. The primary intent of cluster development is.to utilize a portion of each lot to create a cohesive, common, open space scheme that served a viable purpose for the development. A development utilizing the Cluster Development standards for a Medium-Low Density Residential development allows for reductions in the minimum lot area, lot width and setbacks while retaining the same density standard of ten dwelling units per acre. A public hearing notice identifying the time, date and location of the public hearing on this project was published in the Tustin News. Property owners within 300 feet of the site were notified of the hearing by mail and notices were posted on the site, at City· Hall and at the Tustin Police Department. The applicant was informed of the availability of a staff report on this project. DISCUSSION The ETSP designates the project site as Medium-Low Density Residential. The maximum allowable density for this land use designation is 10 dwelling units per acre. The overall density of the original Tentative Tract 14381 plus ~he expansion area is 7.38 dwelling units per acre, approximately 26 percent less than the allowable density. The applicant is proposing a development which is a cluster concept with motor court groupings of six to eleven units off a main loop roadway. Access to the expansion area is propose~ from Churchill Place and Brand Drive which ~.ntersects Pioneer Rcad approximately 440 feet south of Patriot Way. These streets are part of the backbone private street system of Tract 14381 and are 36 feet wide, City Council Report VTT 14748 July 19, 1993 Page 3 accommodating parking on both sides of the street. The northern portion of Presidi~ project maintains a "U-shaped" roadway with nine intersecting secondary rOadways leading to ten motor court clusters. The 12 additional units are located at the end of 4 of these motor courts. Motor cOurt clusters propose 28-foot to 32- foot wide private streets for access from the main tract roadway, and 25-foot wide private drives internally providing access to certain dwelling units. Certain modifications to the City's Street Standards were necessary for the motor court concept. The entire Presidio project will have a total of 114 guest parking spaces where 84 spaces would be required, resulting in an overage of approximately 26 percent. Four (4) additional guest parking spaces were added as part of this expansion area. All resident parking for the 12 new units is provided by 12 two-car attached garages for a total of 24 garage spaces, consistent with the ETSP. No parking would be permitted within travelways less than 32 feet in width or in driveways less than 19 feet in height. A'condition of approval has been included regarding the enforcement of parking regulations to be included in the project's recorded CC&R's to mitigate any potential illegal parking problems. In conformance with Cluster Development standards, the applicant is proposing to provide a centralized open space area for the enjoyment of all the residents of the whole Presidio project in the form of a recreation facility combined with a pedestrian trail system linking the south and north portions of the project. The recreation facility includes a pool, spa and restroom/equipment building. Each of the clusters are also linked together via a sidewalk system, combined with a landscaping theme, beginning within each of the motor-courts and continuing towards the center of the project. The slope area, just south of the expansion area, will provide relatively flat pockets of passive open space and a link to a proposed bus stop along Jamboree Road. The recreation facility, to the west of the e>~ansion area, proVides an active open space area while providing a vantage point for view opportunities; both on-site (the slope grove planting) and off-site (Peter's Canyon Ridgeline and the eucalyptus windrows). The recreation facility and the centralized open space area are located adjacent to and just south of tkis tract. The site was previously graded as part of the grading for Tract 14381 (Presidio Project) and Tract 13627 (sector level map). A majority of the tract is relatively flat with the exception of Lot I of Tract 14381. Lot I inciude! a ten (10) foot high slope as a transition between the Presid2o Project and Patriot Way and Jamboree Road. In order to acccr~odate the additional twelve (12) dwelling units, this slope is proposed to be regraded to create a more level pad area that can be ~eveloped. City Council Report VTT 14748 July 19, 1993 Page 4 The architectural style of the expansion area will utilize the plans previously approved for- the Presidio Project. The architectural plans attached to this report are the same concept plans that were reviewed and conditionally approved during the.. Planning Commission review of Presidio, almost two years ago. The exterior design concept remains the same, however, the interior floor plans have been modified during plan check as a result of conditions of approval limiting the number of four bedroom units. Since this project is being incorporated into the Presidio Project, the applicant proposes to utilize the same floor plans and architectural design that is presently under construction in the first phases of Presidio. The architecture is a contemporary interpretation of the Monterey style. The structures will have "S" tile roofs, stucco walls and wood trim. Some of the architectural details include multi-pane windows, wrought iron balconies, wood trim, planter boxes and various architectural recesses and pop-outs to provide a break in the building mass of the long elevations. Please refer to Attachment A for a statistical summary of the project. The highlight of the Presidio Project combines the slope portion with the recreation facility to provide cohesive open space, including passive and active areas. The slope portion of the tract will receive a grove planting treatment of Indian Laurel Fig and the slope itself will be graded to provide pockets of relatively flat, open space areas off of a pedestrian trail system that links the south and north portion of the tract. This feature provides a simulation of the historical agricultural use of the land while providing an identifiable focal point to the development. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS Based upon review of Vesting Tentative Tract Map 14748, as well as Environmental Impact Report 85-2 (as supplemented) it has been determined that the environmental issues relating to this project have previously been addressed. Also, appropriate mitigating measures identified in EIR 85-2 are included as conditions of approval for the project. With this information in mind, it is recommended that the City Council make the finding that requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act have been met and that no further environmental review is required. City Council Report VTT 14748 July 19, 1993 Page 5 CONCLUSION Given the anal.ysis conducted -by the Community Development Department and in consideration of comments from other agencies and the public, it is concluded that the proposed project meets the requirements of the East Tustin Specific Plan, the Subdivision Map Act, as adopted, and the California Environmental Quality Act. With the inclusion of conditions of approval listed in Planning Commission Resolution 3147, it is recommended that the City Council approve the environmental determination for the project and approve Vesting Tentative Tract Map 14748.

Presentation- Sara Pashalides, ,Associate Planner Commissioner Stracker asked if it were correct that Plan No. 2 was changed from four to three bedrooms. S~aff noted that in %he criginal plan submittal it was a four bedroom unit and the Planning Commission .included a condition requiring no more than 30% of the units were four bedroom. The developer's solution at plan check submittal was to modify the interior layout of plan 2 to eliminate the fourth bedroom to meet the 30% requirement. Commissioner Stracker asked if~_~]oor plans for plan 2 were available. Staff nozed that they %.:ere not included in %he staff report; the floor plans are not 5, e~ through the plan check process. The footprint did nc% change, it was just %he ups%airs floor ~ayout zha~ was modi=ied. Planning Commission Minutes June 28, 1993 Page 4 The Public Hearing was opened at 7:25 p.m. Jon W. Robertson,. 5 Civic Plaza, #100, Newport Beach, Ca., representing California Pacific Homes, distributed the marketing product brochures for this project for the Commission's review and gave a project summary. He stated that he was in concurrence with the staff report as presented, with one minor exception having to do with the mailbox issue and if there was any identified problem he would try to solve it. . Commissioner Kasalek asked Mr. Robertson to explain what he just stated about the mailboxes, especially as to how it would affect three of the homes as he stated. Mr. Robertson stated that there are four mailboxes currently in place on the 'project of the twelve that service that area. Three of the four mailboxes are in yards that have been disclosed to homeowners as being that location. If the mailboxes are moved, it would affect three homeowners currently living in those residences. The primary objection to moving the mailboxes is that they would obstruct picture window views. The Director asked if Mr. Robertson )[new which lot numbers these were. Mr. Robertson responded, Lots 58, 57, 45, 47 and 37. Those lots now occupied are 58, 57 and 48 Commissioner Stracker noted that he had been at the site. He asked if lot $ were not included since he noticed there had been a re- orientation of lot $ from this map to the map of the old tract. ~He asked if this also would constitute a change. !,Ir. RobertsoD responded that the original tentative tract map 14381 was all 155 19ts. Subsequent to the approval of the original tentative tract map they filed two final maps so that when they filed the~ina~. map those lot numbers superseded the -~-ive ~ract map. The entire portion of the site to the left of the recreation facility is Tract 14567 with numbered lots 1-~2. Commiss~cner Butler asked if California Pacific would be ~!ling to mere the mailbo>[es on the unimproved lo%s. ... ode_ ~son noted ~h=~ there are four posts installed currently %'nich Uhey %-ould like to have remain as is t. ut anything installed _n~ to install acccrding to The di~ ~ - ~ ~ec~ on of the Commission. He nc~ed that they had cone Planning Commission Minutes June 28, 1993 Page 5 through three approvals from the'U. S. Postal service prior to coming up with the current solution. commissioner Weil stated she felt that the Company has already been put through enough and as far as the actual mailboxes in the ground she feels they should be left where they are. Commission Stracker asked where the mailboxes were currently specifically located. Mr. Robertson stated that they were on the corner of lot 5~ on the curb return at the intersection of Gray and Kimball. Commissioner Stra'cker asked if these homes were FHA approved. Mr. Robertson answered no, that process has not taken place on this project because of Pricing, but that.all construction standards exceed FHA requirements. Commissioner Stracker asked if they anticipate installing the air conditioning units on the outside of the master bedrooms. He was concerned about the noise they create. Mr. Robertson stated that two phases of the project are currently occupied and that there has not been a complaint from any of the homeowners. The Director noted that there is a field acoustical study required prior %o a certificate of occupancy which requires a. maximum interior noise level of 45 dBa. If that is exceeded the developer ~ould be required, pursuant to Title 25, to install additional noise insulation. Commissioner Stracker asked how the lots were drained. ~r. P. obe~ ~son responded that most of.the o]c%s drain to the front and they have ~rovided area drains ~c 5he rear yard for the hemeowner to connect to. C?mmiss~2oner Stracker asked, in regard to the ~'alls, what type of fencing '~;as being provided. ~,'- Rober-~scn resDcnded tha5 %here-,-~ere -~=~ levels of fencing in ~he DroSect. The rimarv leve~ on %he cir-'~r, fe-ence of the project is' a ~'u=tin Ranch standard block %;i%k brick cap and pilasters. The secondar.v fencin~ is a stucco ssud frame '~:a2' cn %he Drojec~ s~ree~ Planning Commission Minutes June 28, 1993 Page 6 scene and the third level of fencing is a wood neighbor fence which is installed by California Pacific and painted for the homeowner. Mr. Robertson showed the Commission an example of a section of this actual, fence. Commissioner Stracker asked.what the maintenance requirements were for the fencing and who was responsible. Mr. Robertson responded that the party wall fence would be the responsibility of the homeowner and the stucco wall maintenance would be the responsibility of the homeowner's association with the exception of the interior surface which is the maintenance responsibility of the homeowner, however, structural damage is to be taken care of by the association. Commissioner Stracker noted that the orientation of the side yards look right into the rear yards, especially lot 40, 39, 38 and 41. ~Mr. Robertson no~ed that this was not the intent. Within the four floor plans, as can be seen in the brochure, there are 17 different elevations available to the project. Lot 41 is the dead wall and there are no windows on that side, only glass block accents. Commissioner Stracker noted that he was concerned about security in the areas where the lots back up into the court areas. Mr. Robertson responded that all the rear yards are completely enclosed with a fence; where the rear yard does face a street a stucco and stud wall fence would be provided. The Director noted that each of the site plans have gone through extensive security analysis and the City also uses an outside security advisor to advise our Police Department. Both Mr. . Robertson and Mr. Moorhous will confirm that there was an extensive list of corrections for security concerns that each of the Patio Home projects has gone through in the initial stages of project review. The Tustin Police Department has no outstanding security issues at this time. To make a judgement concerning security %;ithout the input of the Police.Department, here and now, is really difficul~ and it would be hard to pose a redesign request at this ~ime to the applicant when the project has undergone an e>~%ensive security analysis. Commissioner Weil asked what the target pricing is and wha% might be the price of the four bedroom. Planning Commission Minutes June 28, 1993 Page 7 Mr. Robertson responded that the current market pricing starts at 230 thousand with the four bedroom at 265 thousand. Commissioner Butler asked that if the four homeowners involved where the mailbox posts currently are would request to have them moved to be in conformance with the rest of the development, would California Pacific be willing to move the boxes. Mr. Robertson responded that would not be a problem. The Public Hearing closed at 7-45 p.m. · · Commissioner Well would like to have the mailboxes that are already installed in the ground remain and recommends only moving the location of future boxes which have not as yet been installed. Commissioner Butler agrees but would like the homeowners with installed mailboxes to have the option of having theirs moved if they wish it. Commissioner Weil feels this particular type of gang mailbox is an abomination and cannot understand why the post office vehicles can't maneuver down the streets. She would like to pursue trying to bring our residents more convenience and to accomplish getting the mailboxes on the corner individually. She feels that having a homeowner who lives at the end of the cul-de-sac have to walk all the way up to the end and sometimes around a corner or park illegally in order to pick up mail is setting up future residents and doing them a disservice. She feels the Commision should try to solve this problem. CommiSsioner Kasalek agrees and also does not see an}' reason why ~he pos~a! vehicles cannot go down the streets or the mailman ~alk to individual Commissioner Butler move~lz- Weil seconded to approve the Environmental Determination for the project by adopting Resolution No. 3144 as submitted Motion ca..led 4-0.
