VESTING TENTATIVE TRACT PAP NO. 13274
RECOIIqENDATION.
It ts recommended that the City Council' 1) approve the Environmental
Determination of the project by the adoption of Resolution No. 88-8, and 2)
approve Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 13274 as recommended by the Planning
Commission by the adoption of Resolution No. 88-9.
BACKGROUND_
' '- Planning' Commission at a regular meeting held on January 11, 1988,
w jmmended to the City Council approval of Yesting Tentative Tract Map No.
13274 subject to the conditions contained in Exhibit "B" to Resolution No. 2465.
The proposed tract would subdivide a 129+ acre site into 28 numbered and two (2)
lettered lots. In conjunction with-~he proposed tract'map the Planning
Commission also approved a Sector Concept Plan, for Sector 12 of 'the East Tustin
Specific Plan and Design Review 87-37, Conditional Use Permit 87-30 and Variance
87-06, approving a specific site plan and architectural design for a 78 acre
mixed use commercial shopping center. The development is to be located east of
proposed new Myford Road and the E1 Modena Flood Control Channel (although other
uses are conceptually shown for the entire 129+ acre site). The 78+ acre center
is expected to include home improvement, cl-~thing, sporting goods, grocery,
restaurant and miscellaneous retail and entertainment uses.
The entire 129+ acre project site is bounded by undeveloped residentially zoned
land to the noFth of Bryan Avenue (includes a future school site), the Santa Ana
(I-5) Freeway to the south, agricultural uses to the east of Jamboree Road and
the Tustin Auto Center and Tustin Ranch Road to the west (see attached Vicinity
Map).
'DISCUSSION
__
Project Description/Site Plan - Submitted development plans propose construction
:~-.approximately 717,000 square feet of retail/commercial space, 55,000 square
,t of restaurant/fast food space and a 1500 seat movie theatre complex (see
rarcel A on site plan) to be developed in three phases over a three year
period. Phase I is located in the southern portion of Parcel A, adjacent to the
I-5 Freeway and Myford Road. Phase I will consist of hard good retail uses,
specializing in home improvement and furnishings. Phases II and III will
C Counci 1 Report

consist of a promotional goods section and a community oriented entertainment
vJil~lage. Typical soft goods would likely include a grocery store and a variety
o~' retail, sporting goods and clothing merchandisers. Entertainment uses would
iinctude a movie theatre complex, restaurants, a possible night club, fast food
~s~o:,~.s, e t c.
PI-oposed buildings on Parcel A are arranged in three groupings consistent with
~he, proposed merchandising. The hard goods and soft goods section are layed out
a,.Tong the outer edges of the site in almost a horseshoe configuration with an
orientation towards Jamboree, with the entertainment village proposed at the
center of the site.
Tlle?'submitted plans also provide a concept plan for development of Parcel B, a
2'3~..acre site. However, the Irvine Company has no formal agreements to develop
parcel B at this time. The potential development shown for this area on the
s~ plan is merely conceptual to comply with the concept plan required by the
E~.b.:Tustin Specific Plan.
O'_tiier major features of the project include'
Primary access to the project will be provided from signalized
intersections at jamboree/E1 Camino Real, E1 Camino/New Myford Road, and
along Jamboree approximately 600 feet north of the centerline of E1 Camino
Real.
Loading and truck deliveries will be restricted south of E1 Camino Real 1~o
an access driveway along new Myford Road and north of E1 Camino Real to two
access driveways along Bryan Avenue.
°° The grading concept for the site has been designed to minimize site
preparation costs as much as possible and to facilitate project
visibility. Grade differences will range from 4 to 18 feet above the I-5
freeway; 0-9 feet above Jamboree south of E1 Camino Real; an average of 1
foot above Jamboree north of E1 Camino Real; 2 feet below the street
elevation along Bryan, and;. an average of 2 feet above Myford Road.
A six foot high berm will screen most of the rear of the buildings from
public view along Bryan and Myford Avenue.
°° A screen wall ranging from two to eight feet in height will be utilized in
conjunction with the grade differences and berming to achieve adequate
screening along the I-5 freeway and portions of jamboree Road.
°~ An extensive interior circulation system will facilitate vehicular access
to the outer uses.
°~ A proposed pedestrian oriented "Grove" encloses the entertainment village.
-Community ~lopment Department
,y Counctl Report
~ebruary 1, 1988
~.'a~Je three
A 1+ acre urban sculpture or "auto square" at the center of the "Grove" is
designed as a central focus and "decision point" for arriving vehicles.
A~--flitectural Design '- The architectural design of the project .is directly
r~,lated to its scale, proposed, buildings are typically single-story structures
3[~ to 50 feet in height. .The project architect has used the buildings and a
combination of wall form texture and colors, combined with natural and
' ' ' e"
a~tficial lighting to create more of an "urban scump[ur . rather than just a
~eries of buildings and walls have become the principal element of design.
B~.lding walls will be primarily designed in a concrete tilt-up style with
concrete panels to be stucco textured and painted. In the hard and soft goods
~ections all exterior walls are also proposed in the same texture, materials and
base.color (a deep red-brown earth tone ~to minimize their area). A series of
brighter accent colors are incorporated at critical locations, such as at store
entrances, roof tower elements, sign monuments, etc. The entertain.ment village,
ll~cated in the "Grove", will have a lighter base color due to its smaller scale
anti will also utilize accent colors.
't. is important to note that the project has been designed as a regional center;
Cs large scale does not lend itself to residential scale architectural
..t~eatment. The layout of the project focuses its activities internally and will
It~ve less impact upon the nearby residential communities than a project which
ttad buildings located at the center of the site surrounded by parking.
t~a-rticular attention has also been paid to the "edges" of the project. The
llandscape treatment along Bryan duplicates the plant materials utilized along
1:he perimeter of the residential district on the north side of Bryan, including
berming, and use of pine and eucalyptus trees. Along the freeway and Myford,
~he planting scheme seeks to shield or screen the back side of the buildings.
llhe most unique feature of the project is the proposed use of sculptural towers,
rmnging from 70 to 90 feet in height. These towers provide vertical relief to
~he otherwise horizontal nature of the project.
_~chool Facilities - The Community Development Department did not receive
c~rresponsdence or comment from the Tustin Unified School District concerning
vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 13274.
Environmental Analysi_s- Based upon review of the subject map as well as Final
EIR 85-~ and the addendum thereto, it has been determined that the environmental
issues relating to this project have been adequately addressed. A1 so,
appropriate mitigation measures identified in Final EIR 85-2 and the addendum
thereto, are included as conditions of approval for the project. With this
information in mi nd, it is recommended that the City Council certify the
addendum to Final EIR 85-2, and make the finding that requirements of the
California Environmental Quality Act have been met and that no further
environmental review is required.

RESOLUTION NO. 88-8
February 1, 1988
ImlRaOUCTIO#
C~a ~larch 17, 1986, the Tustin City Council certified as complete the East Tustin
S~:ific Plan Final Environmental Impact Report 85-2 (EIR 85-2). EIR 85-2 addressed th6
pote. nt~'al environmental impacts associated with them- development of a +1,740-acre master
plato, ned community proposed in the City of Tustin. EIR 85-2 was prep-~red as a program
EIR in accordance with Section 15168 of the CEQA Guidelines. Pursuant to Section
1~I08(c) of the CEQA Guidelines, all "subsequent activities in the program must be
examined in light of the program EIR to determine whether an additional environmental
d~ent must be prepared." In conformance with the provisions of CEQA, an addendum to
EIR 85-2 covering Assessment District 85-1 was certified by the Tustin City Council on
J~ly 21 PllgaSn6. Subsequently, a Supplemental EIR to EIR 85-2, covering the East Tustin
SpecifiJ Development Agreement was certified by the Tustin City Council on October
~., 1986.
Ia conformance with Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines, this document is an addendum
t~ _EIR 85-2. An addendum can be prepared when changes are made to a proposed project
a~r -uch changes do not create any new significant impacts, substantially worsen any
s', 6icant impacts, or substantially lessen any significant impacts already addressed
Sn the EIR prepared for the project. This is the case with the increase in light
~ture height for the proposed project. Per Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines, this
~dendum .will be attached to the certified final EIR 85-2 for consideration by the
~ision-making body in its review of proposed development on the Mixed Use site in the
East Tustin Specific Plan (the "Tustin Market Place").
I~CT DESCRIPTION
applicant for the "Tustin Market Place" has requested a variance to utilize
~igh-mast lighting fixtures to illuminate 60+ acres of parking lot (pursuant to the East
Tmstin Specific Plan, light fixtures in th~-Mixed Use District (Sector 12) have a 35
height limit). Said light fixtures are proposed to be placed on a total of eight
90 foot high towers with a maximum of four (4) fixtures per side of each tower (10'
)LO' square). The justifications for this proposal are summarized as follows'
The ability to provide the high levels of illumination required of a major shopping
mall while keeping the source brightness to acceptable levels is not practical at
low mounting heights. (The high lighting level would require a bright-source,
directly vi sible at the low mounting heights, even wi th sharp cut-off fixtures.)
The desired method of providing high levels of illumination is directly from
overhead, thus placing the source out of the area of visual use.
Sharp cut-off lighting fixtures mounted at low levels even when closely spaced,
leave considerable dark areas between cars and behind landscaping. The prevention
of vandalism, theft, etc. is a major component in the elimination of dark areas to
a minimum by providing vertical illumination of the area between cars, .etc.
'xhit' '- ~
),eso', jn No. 88-8
~ a.~Je two.,
Ttte reduction in source glare, high uniform lighting levels (in accordance with
I..E'.S. standards) and the vertical illumination between objects leads to a more
v4i~ible parking and walking area that substantially improves the safety of people
Jim ~.elation to traffic concerns.
l~he envJironmental impacts from incident light trespass from shielded lighting fixtures
mounted~ above the thirty-five foot level is less than or equal to the thirty-five foot
po,l~.~opp lighting method. The use of sharp cut-off lighting fixtures with visors aimed
tot liibfiit the incident light to the property line will not have a significant impact when
comll.a~: to the approved lighting criteria. Calculations have demonstrated that the
abi;l'lfl~ to reduce spillover i s greater with high-mast lighting than low-mast due to the
gr~ ability to focus the bulbs. This will result in a reduced impact on future
e~es,i~lL~nts in the multiple family residence to the north of Bryan Avenue; Viewed from
htil!l~iide residences, the two forms of lighting would, have a similar impact; that of a
range;, iqluminated site. Lastly, the reflective quality of both systems off surfaces
suc)l~a~ asphalt, cars, glass, leaves, etc. is the same.
..
kt'T 'I~I. VES
N~ Pro~ect- Under this alternative, the project would be illuminated with light
ffi~tu~es at a maximum height of 35 feet. Spillover from this type of fixture would be
g~a~' than the high-mast fixtures due to the inability to move and "focus" the fixture
h~adt,, Shadow areas would also result, creating more opportunities for vandalism, theft,
e.~c~..
Reducmi~ Height - Under this alternative, the light fixtures could be mounted above 35
f~ee~, but les~ than 90 feet. The benefits of high-mast lighting would diminish as ?,he
f,~x~r~s were lowered below 90 feet, thereby necessitating more towers on which 'co mount,
t4J~~[ Oil I4EASORES
_ .
l~.. Tile high-mast llght fixtures shall be turned off no later than one (1) hour after
c;losing of the last tenant in either the hard or soft goods section of the project,
S~ill lighting shall be controlled by optical, cut-off shielding, directional and
vertical aiming methods.

ltea~lL. Shadow areas would also result, creating more opportunities, for vandalism, theft,
e~.~
.~e~..He.ight - Under this alternative, the light fixtures could be mounted above 35
but ]ess than gO feet. The benefits of high-mast lighting would diminish as the
fif~l:u?es were lowered below 90 feet, thereby necessitating more towers on which to mount

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
TUSTIN, CONDITIONALLY APPROVING DESIGN REVIEW 87-37,
CUP 87-30 AND VARIANCE 87-06 FOR A MIXED-USE COMMERCIAL
DEVELOPMENT ON 78+ ACRES IN SECTOR 12 OF THE EAST
TUSTIN SPECIFIC PLaN
The Planning Commission of. the City of 'Tustin does hereby resolve as
follows-
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows'
Ae
Proper applications (Design Review 87-37, CUP 87-30 and Variance
87-06), were filed by Donahue Schriber, representing The Irvine
Company, requesting approval of: a 78+ acre mixed-use commercial
center; a CUP for 13 towers greater than 50 feet in height; and
Variances for 3 building elements higher than 35 feet within 300
feet of the centerline of Bryan Avenue and to place lighting
fixtures higher than 35 feet above grade, pursuant to the East
Tusttn Specific Plan.
Be
A public hearing was duly called, noticed and held on said
applications on January 11, 1988.
Ce
Pursuant to. Section 9272 of the Tustln Municipal Code, the
Commission finds that the location, size, architectural features'
and general appearance of the proposed development will not
impair the .orderly and harmonious development of the area, the
present or future development thehein, or the occupancy as a
whole. In making such findings, the Commission has considered at
least the following items:
1. Height, bulk and area of buildings.
2. Setbacks and site planning.
3. Exterior materials and colors.
4. Type and pitch of roofs.
5. Size and spacing, of windows, doors and other openings.
®
Towers, chimneys, roof structures, flagpoles, radio and
television antennae.
7. Landscaping, parking area design and traffic circulation.
8. Location, height and standards of exterior illumination.
.
Location and appearance of equipment located outside of an
enclosed structure.
10.
Location and method of refuse storage.

11.
Physical relationship of proposed structures to existing-
structures in the neighborhood.
12. Appearance and design relationship of proposed structures
to existing structures and possible future structures in
the nelghborhood and public thoroughfares.
13. Development Guidelines and criteria as adopted by the City
Council.
Pursuant to Section 9292 of the Tusttn Municipal Code, the
Commission makes the following findings on the proposed
variance for portions of buildings greater than 35 feet within
300 feet of the center ltne of Bryan Avenue.
1. There are unusual and exceptional circumstances pertaining
to the size and-location of the subject property which do
not. pertain to other properties in this Specific Plan
district in that the site's size and proximity to the I-5
Freeway have dictated a unique and distinctive design
approach, which incorporates _these building · roof tower
elements to minimize placement .of signs on building walls
and more importantly, provide a focal point for the tenants
which will be visible across much of the expansive project
area.
2.. Said variance is necessary for the preservation of a
substantial property right, which .right is enjoyed elsewhere
on the project'site (on other parcels); in that the three
(3) subject roof towers will provide the respective tenants
with the same si gnage rights as will be enjoyed by other
major tenants within the same project (on other parcels).
3. Granting of this variance will not be materially detrimental
to surrounding properties in that the three {3) 50 foot high
subject roof towers are located a minimum of 230 feet from
the center line of Bryan Avenue, are separated by a minimum
of 240 feet from each other, and will be screened by the
landscape screening along Bryan Avenue.
4. That the granting of this variance is not contrary to the-
provisions of the East Tustin Specific Plan; in that these
three (3) 50 foot high roof towers are not immediately
adjacent to Bryan Avenue, and would maintain architectural
continuity, encouraged by said Specific Plan.

E. Pursuant to Section 9292 of the Tusttn Municipal Code, the
Commission makes the following findings on the proposed variance
for the placement of lighting fixtures greater than 35 feet
above grade:
[. There are unusual and exceptional circumstances pertaining
to the size of the subject property which do not pertain to
other commercial properties in this Specific Plan; in that
there are no other commercial properties tn the Specific
Plan which encompass the same amount of acreage as the
subject, property, whose large size and resulting expansive
parking areas would require a "forest" of 35 foot light
poles which could result in significant, cumulative glare;
whereas eight (8) 90 foot towers with focusable light
· fixtures will minimize light sources, and shall be turned
off within one (1) hour of closing of the last tenant in the
respective section of the project.
2. Said variance is necessary for the preservation of a
substantial property right, which right is enjoyed by other
commercial properties in this Specific Plan; in that other
commercial properties will be encouraged to minimize light
sources to'reduce potential impacts associated with glare
from parking lot light fixtures.
3. The granting of this variance will not be materially
detrimental to surrounding properties in that the use of
eight (8) light towers with. focusable light fixtures willm
further reduce the potential of glare impact (by minimizing
light sources) rather than hundreds of 35 foot light
fixtures.
4. The granting of this variance is not contrary to the East
Tusttn Specific Plan in that the use of the light towers
will be more compatible with surrounding residential uses
due to the minimization of light sources 'and resulting
reduction in potential glare.
F. Pursuant to Section 9291 of the Tustin Municipal Code, the
Commission finds on the Conditional Use Permit for tower
structures greater than 50 feet i n height, that the
establishment, maintenance and operation of the proposed towers
will not, under the circumstances of this case, be detrimental
to the health, safety, morals, comfort or general welfare of
persons residing or working in the general area nor will it be
injurious or. detrimental to the property or general welfare of
the City of~Tustin, as-evidenced by the following findings:
.-

1. Said towers will provide much needed verticle relief to the
project.
2. The 90 foot towers will allow for the concentration of
parking lot lighting sources, thereby reducing potential
glare.
3. The 70 foot towers will make a distinction between the
entertainment center and the rest of the development.
4. Both the 90 and 70 foot sculptural towers will make a
statement as to the uniqueness of the "Tustin Market Place".
11 5. Towers shall be designed and constructed to all applicable
building codes to assure their structural integrity.
G. Pursuant to the findings-contained in Resolution No.
131/ (incorporated' herein by reference)pertaining to the California
Environmental Quality Act, the project is exempt from further
14 envtronmental documentati on.
