Infrastructure
Improvements to the public right-of-way are proposed for Valencia Avenue (addition of a right
turn lane into the two project driveways and median modifications), Kensington Park Drive
(striping modifications and parkway improvements), and Edinger Avenue (right turn lane). In
addition, traffic signal modifications are proposed at the Valencia/Kensington Park Drive
intersection and Kensington Park Drive/Georgia intersection.
Infrastructure, including water, sewer, and storm drain, will be extended into the site from
existing utilities in adjacent roads. Structural BMPS are proposed on-site to comply with water
quality requirements as outlined in the attached Water Quality Management Plan.
Grading
The grading plan results in a total of 19,400 cubic yards (cy) of cut and fill, with 19,790 cy of net
import to provide for acceptable fill material under proposed structures.
Parking
The MCAS Tustin Specific Plan outlines parking requirements for PA 7 Village Services. As the
proposed plan differs in emphasis from a typical shopping center due to the medical uses,
standard parking rates from the Tustin Code were utilized as shown below for the proposed
medical uses.
The property exceeds its required parking. No reciprocal parking/shared parking is assumed
between the medical campus (Building K, L, and M) and the retail center (Buildings A-I). As part
of the entitlement applications a Conditional Use Permit is requested to allow for
shared/reciprocal parking for the medical office campus, subject to the provisions of the
submitted Parking Management Plan prepared by LLG and dated July 17, 2015. A reciprocal
parking easement or other similar mechanism will be recorded as part of the medical campus
CC&Rs as discussed in the CUP description below.
A parking management plan has been provided as part of the submittal.

Specific Plan Amendment (SPA 2015-002)
The proposed project includes a Specific Plan Amendment (SPA) to allow acute
care/rehabilitation uses as a conditional use in Office section of Section 3.4.4 of the MCAS
Specific Plan. The development application includes a concept plan and design review
package with an 80 bed acute care/rehabilitation facility, and an application for a Conditional
Use Permit for this use, subject to approval of the SPA.
The proposed Specific Plan Amendment is comprised of two components: use and height.
Land Use
The list of land uses in Section 3.4.4.A.3 (Office Uses) of the Specific Plan document allows for
emergency care facilities but no other medical uses. The proposed amendment is narrow in
focus, only affecting Planning Area 7, broadening the range of uses allowed for this
commercial center in a way which is reflective of other areas of the City. The proposed use is
similar in function to a convalescent hospital and for purposes of this amendment is being
grouped with the proposed medical office uses.
The 22.7 acre site was originally intended for up to 248,292 square feet of "village services"
including both commercial and office uses. The proposed neighborhood serving commercial
uses within the site include a full range of the typical market-supported uses for similar
centers: grocery, drug store, restaurants, childcare and retail, while only covering
approximately half of the site. The medical care marketplace has changed substantially in
recent years as a result of an aging population and the Affordable Care Act, leading to a higher
demand for more integrated community based medical facilities, and fewer freestanding
medical office buildings. Under the current Specific Plan, the Village Services Planning Area
list of allowable uses limits the ability to respond to this changing marketplace. Community
based medical uses are not readily available in Tustin, leading to the proposed acute
care/rehabilitation component in combination with medical office uses which are already
permitted in this planning area.
Thus, the proposed Amendment would add the following to the use list in Section 3.4.4.A.3:
• Healthcare services including Acute care, rehabilitation hospital, skilled nursing and
similar uses "C" (Conditional Use)
Height
The second component of the Specific Plan Amendment is to allow the acute
care/rehabilitation building(Building M)and the medical office building(Building K)to exceed
the established 45 foot height limit for this planning area. The proposed amendment would
increase the maximum building height to 60 feet for the acute care/rehabilitation building
The Village at Tustin Legacy Project Description 4
(Building M) and 54 feet for the Medical Office Building (Building K). The additional height
for these two buildings is to accommodate the increased floor height needed to
accommodate the specialized ducting and mechanical equipment to support the proposed
medical uses, which may include imaging and other activities with specialized requirements.
Building M, the acute care/rehabilitation facility is subject to California Office of Statewide
Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) building requirements which include specialized
air handling equipment and additional floor height for this three-story building.
Development Agreement (DA 2015-001)
Pursuant to Section 4.2.9 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan, prior to issuance of any permits
or approval of any entitlements within the Specific Plan area, all private development shall
first obtain a Development Agreement in accordance with the State's Government Code and
Tustin City Code. The purpose of the Development Agreement is to strengthen the public
planning process, encourage private participation in comprehensive planning, and reduce
economic risk of development.
Accordingly, Regency Centers' application includes the required Development Agreement. A
draft Development Agreement (see Attached) is provided to further the purpose and intent
of the General Plan and Specific Plan, and FEIS/FEIR and will ensure the orderly
implementation of infrastructure and development.
The Development Agreement includes a schedule of performance and obligations that ensure
adequate local infrastructure programs are in place to support the proposed development.
Concept Plan (CP 2015-003)
Pursuant to Section 4.2.2 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan, a Concept Plan shall be prepared
and submitted concurrent with the submission of a new development proposal. The purpose
of a Concept Plan is to ensure: necessary linkages are provided between the development
project, the integrity of the Specific Plan and purpose and intent of the neighborhood is
maintained, and applicable City requirements are identified and satisfied.
The. Concept Plan for The Village at Tustin Legacy has been prepared and submitted
concurrently with the proposal to develop a multiple-use commercial center. The Concept
Plan outlines the following elements:
• Pedestrian connections into the site from Valencia and Kensington Park Drive;
• Pedestrian flow within the site, including through the parking areas;
• Portal Intersection at Kensington Park Drive at Edinger Avenue as detailed in the
Landscape Plan package and Sign Program;
The Village at Tustin Legacy Project Description 5
• Primary community intersection treatment at the site's southwestern corner at Tustin
Ranch Road/Valencia Avenue as detailed in the Landscape Plan package and Sign
Program;
• Viewscape into the site at the Valencia Avenue/Kensington Park Drive corner, consisting
of special landscape treatment, patio space, and signage as well as a pedestrian
connection; and
• Inclusion of courtyards and patios within the site
Design Review 2015-014
Pursuant to Section 4.2.4 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan, following or concurrently with
submittal and approval of a Concept Plan, individual development shall require Site Plan and
Design Review in accordance with the Tustin City Code. The Design Review submittal has
been proposed for the project site planning and design. The proposed project design and site
layout are consistent with the intent of the Specific Plan and complies with design review
criteria prescribed in the Tustin City Code.

Architectural Concept
Retail Center: The Village at Tustin legacy, while reflecting back to the history of Tustin &the
Marine Corps air station, is inspired by the evolving Southern California lifestyle.
"Contemporary Barn" architectural style borrows inspiration from the industrial aesthetics of
the hangars to the agricultural farmlands that surrounded the site in the early 1900's.
Material finishes palette further exhibit this influence with the use of metal roofing&sidings,
rich colored board & batten vertical sidings, rusticated stone veneer, barn doors, louvers &
lattices.This center desires to promote an open air village setting that offers the neighboring
communities an appealing respite blended with relaxed style retail & dining experiences. The
cohesive merging of site hardscape, landscaping, environmental graphics, creative tenant
signage & architectural detailing shall contribute to the embodiment of the overall themed
project character.
Medical Center: The medical campus at The Village at Tustin Legacy integrates multi-level
healthcare services with service retail in a casual contemporary architecture expressive of the
Southern California region.The architectural contrast between light and heavy create a fresh,
clean look that communicates the functions of cutting edge healthcare. The layering of glass
and mass supports a modern look indicative of a "high tech, high touch" environment. The
elements capture the unique way that Hoag engages with their patients and is based on their
strong tradition of excellence. The architectural is timeless with accents of surprise through
small punches of color and distinct forms. Rich colors, stone tile, and metal awnings connect
the retail and medical campus and are indicative of the Tustin area. While similar materials
The Village at Tustin Legacy Project Description 7
(i.e. metal roofing vertical siding), landscaping, and signage create a seamless transition from
the medical complex to The Village at Tustin Legacy retail center, the architectural language
of the medical buildings creates a distinct experience unique to healthcare.
Tentative Parcel Map 2015-127 (SUB 2015-03)
This Tentative Parcel Map is a subdivision of the approximately 22.7 acre site into 13
numbered lots and four lettered lots for the development of a multiple-use commercial
center. Reciprocal access easements are identified for shared access among the lots of the
commercial center. Easements are also provided for public utilities.
The Tentative Parcel Map includes a conceptual grading plan for the project based on the
recommendations of a soils study, a utility plan, and an off-site improvements exhibit. The
grading plan results in a total of 19,400 cubic yards (cy)of cut and fill,with 19,790 cy of import
to provide for acceptable fill material under proposed structures.
The lettered lots are city-owned property not included in the development area: right-of-
way for Valencia Avenue and Edinger Avenue, and slope/parkway parcels associated with
Tustin Ranch Road.

Conditional Use Permits
Conditional Use Permit 2015-11: Acute Care/Rehabilitation Center (Building M)
A Conditional Use Permit to allow development of a 75,000 square foot/80 bed acute
care/rehabilitation facility/rehabilitation/convalescent care facility (Building M) subject to
approval of the Specific Plan Amendment, which adds this use to the list of conditionally
permitted uses and allows a height of 60 feet. The use is parked to the Municipal Code
requirement for hospital uses.
The following text outlines the operations and use of the three (3) story, 80 bed facility
proposed for the Tustin Legacy property located at Kingston Park Drive and Edinger Avenue.
While the specific operator and operational plan has not been finalized, the purpose of the
facility is intended to fill the continuum of care need of the community. The facility will
provide multiple levels of care that range from acute rehabilitation, skilled nursing, assisted
living, and chemical dependency services. Acute Rehabilitation and Skilled Nursing facilities
would typically admit patients who require overnight care, but no longer require the type of
care provided by a hospital.
While these centers provide 24 hour care for patients, most of the activity occurs from 7am-
8pm and visiting hours are typically over by 8pm.The facilities often offer outpatient services,
such as health education classes and outpatient therapy services. Patients arrive at these
facilities on a non-emergency basis. After their stay they would return home. Length of stay
will vary depending condition of the patient and the type of care needed. Seventy five percent
of these types of patients stay for three months or less. Rehabilitation Skilled Nursing facilities
and Rehabilitation Hospitals have an average length of stay of about 20 days.
Services could range from rehabilitative transitional care, to specialized dementia, chemical
dependency and Alzheimer's care, to hospice and palliative care. Assisted Living facilities
house patients/residents that do not require 24 hour care with an average length of care of
six months or longer. The patients/residents live fairly independently but require assistance
with medication, meals and cleaning. Typically the patients/residents do not drive as the
majority of them are not capable of driving. The staffing level for an assisted living facility is
less than an Acute Rehab or Skilled Nursing facility due to the lower level of care. This type of
facility would integrate well into the community since it is situated in a predominantly
residential area with healthcare services and retailers within walking distance.
Acute Rehabilitation & Skilled Nursing facilities would all be regulated by the California
Department of Health Services and require a license to. operate and provide healthcare
services based on regulatory & operational requirements. These facilities obtain a building
permit through the California Office of Statewide Healthcare & Planning.
The Village at Tustin Legacy Project Description 9
Programmatically, these facilities would typically support patient rooms, nursing and staff
support areas, rehabilitation gym space, day rooms, dining services, a pharmacy, treatment
rooms, and general building support functions.
Outside activity is limited to deliveries and trash pick-up and to the arrival and departure of
patients, visitors and staff. There is often a small dedicated exterior space for patient therapy
services. Deliveries are infrequent - perhaps one to two per day - and are received at a
dedicated area at the rear of the facility by way of local delivery vehicles such as box-trucks.
Trash receptacles reside at the rear of the facility in a screen area.
Hours of Operation
24 Hours. Visiting Hours Typically 7am-7pm daily
Conditional Use Permit 2015-12: Pharmacy Drive-Thru (Building D)
A Conditional Use Permit to allow development of a drive-thru associated with a 14,576
square foot drug store/pharmacy (Building D). The drive-thru will be a single lane with
signage above the canopy as shown on the attached plans and elevations. The location of
the drive-thru component of Building D is at the rear of the structure adjacent to the
building's loading area and away from internal traffic flow or entries. Way-finding signage
will be provided on the asphalt driveway near the building entry. The drive-through will be a
24-hour operation. Only prescription drop-off and pickup or over the counter medication
purchases are allowed, no general merchandise or alcohol purchases are allowed. A voice
enhanced microphone system will be included designed to project sound in a limited radius
to protect patient privacy and minimize noise impacts.
Conditional Use Permit 2015-13: Restaurant Drive-Thru (Building E)
A Conditional Use Permit to allow development of a drive-thru associated with a 3,300 square
foot restaurant/retail building (Building E). No tenant has been established at this time. The
drive-thru will be a single lane with way-finding signage, located adjacent to the Valencia
Avenue frontage of the project area. The drive through lane will be screened per Tustin Code.
As shown on the site plan, a minimum of eight cars can be stacked in the drive-thru lane. No
walk-up orders are permitted at the drive-thru window. No alcohol purchases are allowed.
This drive-thru will be a 24-hour operation.
Conditional Use Permit 2015-14: Bank Drive-Thru (Building H)
A Conditional Use Permit to allow development of a drive-thru associated with a 3,324 square
foot band/financial institution (Building H). No tenant has been established at this time. The
drive-thru will be a single lane with way-finding signage, located adjacent to the Kensington
Park Drive frontage of the project area.The drive-thru provides access to an Automatic Teller
Machine (ATM) for automated self-service banking. The ATM itself would be located on the
western facade of the building facing Valencia Avenue. The drive through lane will be
The Village at Tustin Legacy Project Description 10
screened as shown on the landscape plan. As shown on the site plan, a minimum of ten cars
can be stacked in the drive-thru lane. Security cameras will be provided, as will security
lighting subject to police department review at the time of building permit.
Conditional Use Permit 2015-15: Restaurant Drive-Thru (Building I Alternate use)
A Conditional Use Permit to allow development of a drive-thru associated with a 4,500 square
foot restaurant, as an alternate use for Building I. No tenant has been established at this time.
The drive-thru will be a single lane with way-finding signage, located adjacent to the
Kensington Park Drive frontage of the project area. The drive through lane will be screened
per Tustin Code. As shown on the site plan, a minimum of seven cars can be stacked in the
drive-thru lane. The ordering speaker will be located on the southern portion of the building,
and oriented towards the interior of the commercial center and away from the Kensington
Park Drive frontage to avoid projection of speaker noise towards adjacent residential uses.
No walk-up orders are permitted at the drive-thru window. No alcohol purchases are allowed.
Hours of operation are 6 am to midnight; final hours of operation may be modified at the
time of building permit once a tenant is in place.
Conditional Use Permit 2015-16: Master Sign Program
A Conditional Use Permit related to a master sign program for the commercial center. The
sign program will include signage for the entire commercial center. See submittal materials.
The program includes design and criteria for the tenants of the retail center, the medical
signage for Hoag, and the project signage (Portal and Community signage and project signage
at the viewscape intersection of Valencia Avenue/Kensington Park Drive.
Tenant signage is expected to embellish the essence of the architectural character of Tustin
Legacy by expressing clearly the Tenant name and function,while also serving as an extension
of the desired qualities of the commercial, retail and dining environments. Tustin Legacy's
architectural style is that of Contemporary Rustic, with metal canopies, wood siding and
intimate pedestrian scale that are a reflection of rural America, which will be further
emphasized through landscape and graphic design and detailing. With the history of Tustin
as its anchor and the evolving Southern California lifestyle as its current inspiration, Tustin
Legacy will promote the blend of high energy and relaxed style that is manifested in the
changing community surrounding it.
Tenant graphic design shall be imaginative, simple and clear. Creative and expressive signage
solutions using a variety of materials are strongly encouraged as a means of enhancing
customer experience.Additional icon/imagery will be considered, at the sole discretion of the
Landlord, provided it contributes to the overall identity and design of the store.Tenants shall
retain the services of a professionally trained graphic designer to create their identity and
sign program. The design of signs shall be harmonious with the materials, color,texture, size,
scale, shape, height, placement and design of Tenant premises and the Landlord buildings.
Strict adherence to these sign design criteria shall insure that the character of the shopping
center is maintained.

No lighting is proposed in and around the playground area. As such, there is no need for a
photometric study. If it is determined that a photometric study is required, it shall be
provided at the time of building permit submittal.
Security Guidelines
The proposed school complies with childcare security guidelines regarding access control and
visitor control. See the floorplan below and the architectural plans for the design of the entry,
reception area, and Director's office. Regarding access and visitor control, the proposed
school uses Procare Software's Keyless Entry System on the entry door. The keyless entry
system connects to a magnetic lock and allows entry only to authorized staff and families.
Additionally,the system includes dual tones for authorized persons and unauthorized guests.
Authorized users will be provided a unique PIN code that allows access to the building during
normal working hours. Guests without an active authorization code will use the "Guest
Doorbell" to alert the staff that a visitor is requesting entry. Knowing that multiple families
may enter the school when one parent enters their access code and opens the door, the
reception area will be staffed by the Director and a receptionist during peak traffic areas(e.g.,
drop-off and pick-up time) to control access. During nonpeak hours the reception area will
generally be staffed by either the Director or the receptionist. Since the entry door remains
locked at all times,when neither the Director nor the receptionist is available in the reception
area, the door chime announces when an authorized visitor opens the door or when an
unauthorized guest is requesting entry.

The Village at Tustin Legacy Project Description 16
Conditional Use Permit 2015-_: Shared/Reciprocal Parking, Medical Center
The medical center component of The Village at Tustin Legacy is comprised of Buildings 1, K,
L, and M which are intended for medical office and Acute Care/Rehabilitation Hospital uses.
These buildings are located on individual lots in the project's Parcel Map—Parcels 10, 11, 12,
and 13.
As shown on the table below, the medical center component of the project provides parking
in excess of the code requirement for individual uses, assuming medical office use for the
three office buildings and hospital use for the Acute Care/Rehabilitation Hospital.

The intent of the proposed CUP is to provide a mechanism whereby the parking areas
associated with each building are shared among the four uses. This concept has been
evaluated by the Parking Study and Parking Management Plan prepared by LLG Engineers,
dated July 17, 2015 using strict adherence to City parking ratios for the medical uses. To
implement this concept, the project would include the following:
• CC&Rs specific to the Medical Center will include a provision for reciprocal access and
parking between the four medical center buildings and provide for the maintenance
of the parking areas.
• A reciprocal parking easement or agreement will be recorded which will run with the
land.
