DISCUSSION
Submitted plans propose the development of an approximate 12,390 square foot
industrial building on a .70 acre stte located Immediately east of the Champion
Foods factltty on Industrial Drive, between Red Hill Avenue and Woodlawn
Avenue. The subject stte, is currently zoned lq (Tndustrlal) and Is surrounded
by stnfilartly zoned properties to the north, south, east and west. Surrounding
developments Include: Pacific Bell office, buildings across Tndustrlal Drive to
the north, an Industrial building Immediately to the south, a strawberry field
to the east (a 40,000+ square foot office building ts proposed on this stte) and
the Champion Foods factlity to the west.
The sub~itted development plans propose a'maxlmum 30 foot tall, concrete tilt-up
butldlng with 5,387 square, feet of office space (in two levels) and
approximately 7,003 square feet of warehouse space. The building is located
towards the northwest corner of the slte, with a 25 foot landscaped front
setback proposed on Industrial Drtve. A total of 36 parking spaces are
provided as required by the lq-Zoning District. Proposed parking ts located
along the east and south property lines and around the rear of the bulldlng.
Additional features of the project Include:
Natural concrete finish with bands of exposed aggregate (the natural ftnish
wtll be painted If' there are significant blemishes).
o A 5.5 foot wide landscape perimeter around the edges of the parking lot.
° Glass blocks at the front entry and second level stairway.
A landscape "arcade" a't the front of the building providing a sense of
depth at the front elevation.
Exposed aggregate concrete walk at building entrance.
Access to the site is via a 27 foot wide concrete 'drive apron on Industrial
Drive.
A 6' - 0" high concrete screen wall along the east, north and west property
lines, stepping down to 3' - 0" at the 25 foot building setback line.
Future. tenants will be required to comply with the provisions of the Tustin
Si gn Code.
Submitted landscaping plans call for a combination of 24" box and 15 gallon
trees, in conjunction with a variety of shrubs and ground cover.
The applicant was allowed to submit plans for building plan check, with a letter'

SOLMAR R & D BUILDING
Sec.t.ton II - Envlronmental..I,.mpacts
1, Earth
Items A through D - "No"- 'The project site is currently flat and does not contain
any sub'~ltantial geologic features based upon field verification completed by the
project planner on June 17, 1988. The proposed building layout and conceptual
grading plan call for minimal movement of existing soil which will not constitute a
basis for altering any geological features or changes to existing topography or
ground surface relief features. All on-site grading activities will be conducted
in accordance with City Codes and requirements and verified by the Building
Official.
Sources' - Field verification, June 17, 1988
" - Proposed site plan and conceptual grading plan
- Tustin Municipal Code
- Uniform Building Code
Monitoring Required' - Plan check and inspections through Building Division.
Ite..m E ',1 "Maybe": The proposed grading activities could result in localized wind
and water erosion of on-site soils if unchecked. As conditions of approval for
this project, the applicant will be required to provide an erosion control plan
which addresses water and soil related erosion problems during the rainy season.
Wind blown soil. erosion can also be controlled through watering of the site during
windy conditions and by watering down any soil removal trucks, during grading
operations. Therefore, any possible impact can be mitigated to a level of
i nsi gni fi cance.

watering during grading operations, and 2) Verification of adequacy of control to
be completed by Duilding Inspector during required grading and foundation
i nspecti ons.
Items F and G - "No"' Based on the site location in relation to any streams,
river~';'i'and flood control channels, it is not anticipated that this project will
substantially contribute to siltation or erosion problems to local water bodies.
Additionally, the site is not directly adjacent to or located on any known active
earth quake fault. The site is relatively flat and therefore would not be subject
to any land or mudslide activies.

2. Air
Items A through C - "No"' The proposed project is not considered a substantial
~ontrib~tor to '~ir emissions (less than 100 tons a year) and is not subject to
specific regulation by the Air Quality Managemnt District as a stationary source
of air pollution. The project is proposed for light industrial and office use and
does not propose to use or nmintain on-site any substantial quantity of n~terials
that by use or nature will create objectionable odors. The project is relatively
stall in scale (less than 50,000 square feet) in an existing "bui~lt-up" area and
will therefore not have a significant impact on the clinmte, or pose alterations in
the n~venmnt of, ~isture in, or temperture of the air.

ii iii ~ Required-. As a condition of approval, the applicant will be required to
file for and obtain approval- of permits from the Air Quality Managenmnt District
under Regulation 15 as necessary. Monitoring is conducted by the Air Quality
Managenmnt District for compliance with their requirenmnts.
Item A and C through I - "No": As noted in the discussion in item number 1
I'(Eart~) above, the project site is not located adjacent to or in the vicinity of
any large body of water or exposed flood control channels or devices. Therefore,
it is not anticipated that the project will have an effect on currents, quality or
courses of water. The project is located in a "C" District on the Tustin FIRM mp
and is not considered to be a flood prone area.
The proposed project involves a one story industrial building, (with two stories of
office space). The water table will not be substantially affected by construction
activity since soil boring reports conducted in the area show no evidence of near
surface water bodies.
£xhibi t A

The project, due to it's small size (123,390.5 square feet) and proposed use, will
not significantly reduce water supply or contribute excess quantities of water to
the ground water supply. Because the site was formally part of the Champion Foods
parking lot, proposed developnmnt will not result in changes to absorbion rates.
Therefore, no significant effects related to water are anticipated as a result of
the project.
