Based on this office's communication with City Code Enforcement, this Structure is unpermitted but the owner is seeking permits. These permits should be denied for the reasons set forth herein. As depicted in the enclosed photographs, this Structure presents a remarkable blight to the City of Tustin and Tustin Field 1 Community. In addition, this Structure is an unauthorized addition that has been erected in contravention of the Tustin Field 1 Board of Director's wishes. In fact, this office is informed that the Tustin Field 1 Board of Directors are in the process of pursuing civil remedies, including legal action, to ensure the Structure is demol- ished and removed. As one might expect, the permit being sought is essentially useless: such a permit cannot override or replace the authority of the Tustin Field 1 Board of Directors. In fact, the entire process of seeking a permit for the Structure is a waste of this Commission's time. That being said however, this Commission has a unique opportunity to nip this matter in the bud, thereby preventing further deterioration of community aesthetics. This can be achieved by denying permit of the Structure on an obvious basis: community blight. The City of Tustin is renowned for its historic origins and beautiful urban aesthetics. One can espy this beauty through several key landmarks in our community: the former Tustin MCAS base, and old -town downtown. The developers and planners of Tustin Field 1 at- tempted to embrace this unique setting by assimilating with Tustin's former MCAS base and Madison & Associates I Post Office Box 50992 1 Irvine, California 92619 City Planning Commission August 26th, 2014 Page: 2 downtown style. Such as style was subject to many a review, including countless meetings, review, and modifications. While this process may have been tedious, the City of Tustin has undoubtedly benefited from this rigorous deliberation. Recognizing this benefit, the devel- opers of Tustin Field 1 enacted certain Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions that disavow attempts to improve or modify aesthetics of the community absent due process. Notwith- standing, the owner of the Structure has sought to conceal his unauthorized edition from both the City of Tustin and Tustin Field 1 Board of Directors alike. These actions should not be supported. Accordingly, this office strongly opposes the Structure's preliminary application. For the reasons mentioned herein, along with reasons proffered verbally during the Commission's public comment period, the application to permit the existence of the Structure should be denied with prejudice. Agreed as to Form and Content. Enclosures ML Volloompomomm, F . . .. . . . . . . . . . . go 0 0 el 4 i . w e t _ � r '♦MMS~ • .. � * ,.
