A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF TUSTIN RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL
APPROVE TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP 2015-139, DESIGN
REVIEW 2015-10, AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 2015-21
AUTHORIZING THE SUBDIVISION OF AN EXISTING 8,500
SQUARE FOOT LOT CONSISTING OF ONE (1) NUMBERED LOT
FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF FOUR (4) CONDOMINIUM
RESIDENCES LOCATED AT 1051 BONITA STREET.
The Planning Commission of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A. That a proper application for General Plan Amendment 2015-01, Tentative
Parcel Map 2015-139, Design Review 2015-10, and Conditional Use Permit
2015-21 was filed by Yenny Ng Designs Architects on behalf of Goliath F&M
LLC requesting authorization to change the General Plan Land Use
Designation from Community Commercial (CC) to High Density Residential
(HDR) and subdivide an existing parcel located at 1051 Bonita Street for
condominium purposes to accommodate the construction of four (4) dwelling
units located within two (2) residential buildings;
B. That the property is zoned as Multiple Family Residential (R3 2000) and
proposes a General Plan Land Use Designation of High Density Residential
(HDR) under General Plan Amendment 2015-01. In addition, the project has
been reviewed for consistency with the Air Quality Sub -element of the City of
Tustin General Plan and has been determined to be consistent with the Air
Quality Sub -element;
C. That the primary residence at the subject property is identified in the City's
1990 Historical Survey as a "D" rated structure with severe alterations while
the 1000 block of Bonita Street is listed with a National Register Historic
Preservation (NRNP) Status Code: 5S3 in the City's 2003 Update to the
Historical Resources Survey;
D. That the demolition of the structures at the subject property and construction
of two (2) duplex buildings to accommodate condominiums will not have a
significant impact on a historical resource. The primary residence at the
subject property is not a significant example of a California Bungalow at the
local or regional level nor does it have a linkage to important persons or
events within the City. Furthermore, there are significant alterations to the
property from its original condition. The residences along Bonita Street are
not eligible for individual listing on the City's Historic Survey;
Resolution No. 4305
Page 2
E. That City staff prepared an Initial Study to evaluate the potential
environmental impacts associated with the project which concluded there is
no substantial evidence that the project may have a significant effect on the
environment, and a Draft Negative Declaration (ND) was prepared;
F. That a Notice of Intent to Adopt a Negative Declaration was published and
the Negative Declaration and Initial Study were made available for a 20 -day
public review and comment period from November 12, 2015, to December 1,
2015, in compliance with Sections 15072 and 15105 of the State CEQA
Guidelines;
G. That the Planning Commission continued the item from the December 8,
2015, meeting at the request of City staff in order to provide adequate time to
complete the required noticing of the project pursuant to State law. The item
was continued to a date certain of January 12, 2016, and all required noticing
of the project was completed;
H. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for General Plan
Amendment 2015-01, Tentative Parcel Map 2015-139, Design Review 2015-
10, and Conditional Use Permit 2015-21 on January 12, 2016, by the
Planning Commission;
That the Planning Commission considered the Initial Study and the
Negative Declaration and recommended that the City Council find it
adequate for General Plan Amendment 2015-01, Tentative Parcel Map
2015-139, Design Review 2015-10, and Conditional Use Permit 2015-21;
J. That the Planning Commission considered General Plan Amendment 2015-
01 and recommended that the City Council approve the request to change
the General Plan Land Use Designation from Community Commercial
(CC) to High Density Residential (HDR) for the property located at 1051
Bonita Street;
K. That as conditioned, the map would be in conformance with the State
Subdivision Map Act and Tustin City Code Section 9323 (Subdivision Code)
in that;
1. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map 2015-139 and improvements are
consistent with the proposed General Plan Amendment 2015-01,
Multiple Family Residential (R3 2000) zoning designation, Tustin City
Code, and Subdivision Map Act.
2. The site is physically suitable for the type of development and
proposed density in that the development of four (4) condominium
residences on an 8,500 square foot parcel is within the allowable
density requirements of proposed General Plan Amendment 2015-01.
Resolution No. 4305
Page 3
The design of the proposed subdivision and improvements are not
likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and
avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat in that the development is
located on an improved parcel within an urbanized area.
4. The design of the subdivision or the types of improvements proposed
are not likely to cause serious public health problems in that the
development is in compliance with the Zoning Code and will be
required to comply with the applicable building and life safety codes.
5. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not
conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access
through or use of property within the proposed subdivision as a public
sidewalk and parkway improvements will be installed as a result of the
project.
That the waste discharge from the proposed subdivision into a
community sewer system will not result in or add to violations of
existing requirements prescribed by the Regional Water Quality
Control Board in that the development will be permitted through the
Orange County Sanitation District to utilize community sewer
facilities.
7. That recommendations provided in the preliminary geotechnical
report would be implemented in the grading and foundation
improvements associated with the project.
L. That the City's Public Works Department has reviewed the map and
determined that, as conditioned, it is technically correct;
M. That the project meets the development standards of the Multiple Family
Residential (R3 2000) zoning district;
N. That Tustin City Code Section 9331d requires the subdivider to pay a fee
in lieu of providing a parkland dedication;
O. 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 in that:
1. Multiple family dwellings inclusive of condominiums and apartments
are prevalent in the neighborhood and allowed by the applicable
zoning.
Resolution No. 4305
Page 4
2. The subject property is currently developed with multiple dwelling
units and the proposal would result in a net increase of two dwelling
units.
3. The project would result in the construction of parkway
improvements within the public right-of-way including the
installation of a public sidewalk along Bonita Street.
4. As proposed the building fronting Bonita Street would appear as a
two story single family residence with a single point of entry and
orientation towards the street.
5. The project architecture and detailing would enhance the Bonita
Streetscape.
P. That the location, size, and general appearance of the proposed project as
conditioned is compatible with the surrounding area in that there are
existing two story multi -family residences in the area of a similar massing
and scale. In addition, the architectural design and features are an
enhancement to the existing housing stock in the neighborhood. The
proposal 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 Planning Commission has considered
at least the following items:
1. Height, bulk, and area of proposed structure.
2. Setbacks and site planning.
3. Exterior material and colors.
4. Type and pitch of roofs.
5. Size and spacing of windows, doors and other openings.
6. Towers, chimneys, and roof structures.
7. Landscaping, parking area design and traffic circulation.
8. Location, height and standards of exterior illumination.
9. Location and method of refuse storage.
10. Physical relationship of proposed structures to existing structures in
the neighborhood.
11. Appearance and design relationship of proposed structures to
existing structures and possible future structures in the neighborhood
and public thoroughfares.
12. Development guidelines and criteria as adopted by the City Council.
Il. The Planning Commission hereby recommends that the City Council approve
Tentative Parcel Map 2015-139, Design Review 2015-10, and Conditional Use
Permit 2015-21 authorizing the subdivision of an existing 8,500 square foot lot
consisting of one (1) numbered lot for the development of four (4) condominium
residences located at 1051 Bonita Street, subject to the conditions contained
within Exhibit A, attached hereto.
