Stte layout and architectural destgn plans for untts lto be butlt are also before the Commission for review and al~p~ol val~_l, rlflpy L Community Development Department Planning CommiSsion Report Shadowbrook page two As proposed, the Shadowbrook project meets or exceeds minimum requirements of regulations governing development within Phase I. Additionally, non-required features such as a common recreation area are included in the project. Accordingly, staff recommends that the Commission recommend to City Council approval of Tentative Tract map No. 12719 and that the Commission approve Design Review 86-12. BACKGROUND AND DTSCU$STON: With the adoption of Ordinance No. 938, Planned Community Regulations and Guidelines for the area known as East Tustin, Phase I, were.established. The project now before the Commission (Tentative Tract Map No. 1271g/Shadowbrook) is proposed for the portion of Phase I indicated as Area 1 on the attached Exhibit A. Development for residential purposes within Area ! is limited to single family detached dwellings at a maximum density of eight (8) units per acre. A total of 264 units are permitted in Area 1. Pursuant to applicable zoning and subdivision regulations and prior to development of any project, the Planning Commission must conduct a public hearing and make recommendations to City Council concerning proposed subdivision maps. In this case, Tentative Tract Map No. 127!9. Additionally, as outlined in Planned Community Regulations for Phase I, the Planning Commission must approve final conceptual development plans prior to submittal of such plans to the Building Department for permit issuance. Conceptual development plans refer to si~e layout, architectural elevations of buildtong exteriors, common area landscape plans and recreational facility plans. The design review process does not require a public hearing. In reviewing the subject project it should be remembered that the entire Phase I area was in essence created by Final Tract 12345. This is important to note in that certain conditions imposed upon Tract 12345 are applicable to and must be incorporated within subsequent projects in the area. PRO~]£CT PROPOSAL The Bren Conl~any has submitted a comprehensive development package for a single family residential project to be called Shadowbrook. The submittal includes a site plan, building elevations, landscape and recreation area plans and the required subdivision map. Specifically, the project consists of a maximum of 218 single family detached units each upon its own individual lot. There are two separate actions the Commission must take in relation to this project, so each will be addressed individually. Community Development Department 15 Planning Commission Report Shadowbrook page three L Tentative Tract Map No. 12719 As Indicated on the exhibtts forwarded to the Commission, Tentative Tract Map No. 12719 would 'create 218 individual residential lots, provide an interior trafftc' circulation system and establish common recreation and landscape areas. By subdividing in this fashion, overall project denstty .ts just under stx units per acre whereas maximum density allowed Is eight units per acre. The 218 unit count is also less than the maximum unit allowed for Area i whtch is 264. In terms of tssues pertaining specifically to the subdivision map outside of standard conditions of approval, discussion ts fairly limited. However, a few points must be made. First, resulting from a requirement of Tract 12345 the area shown as "P" Street (Including lots 204 through 218) cannot be developed at the present time. This area has been reserved to accommodate flood control devices pending the completion of improvements under construction in the E1 Modena Flood Control Channel. Secondly, as a part of an area wide traffic circulation plan, there is the potential that Browning Avenue may be extended over the Santa Ana Freeway. 0nly upon completion of the flood control channel and once a determination on whether or ~ot Browning Avenue will be extended has been made can development of homes tn this area proceed. A second issue relating to Tentative Tract 12719 is the dedication of parkland. Pursuant to Ctty 0rdtnance No. 921 a total of 1.84 acres of parkland must be dedicated as a result of the proposed development. Of this parkland required, .9~ acres must be dedicated to a "community level" park within East Tustin, and .92 acres must be committed to a "neighborhood level" park. At the encouragement of staff, The Bren Company has provided a .32 acre recreation area within Shadowbrook. However, the applicant has in turn requested that this acreage be credited towards the .92 acre requirement for a neighborhood park. Since the recreation area is not mandatory per applicable regulations, and it does meet criteria necessary to receive credit as requested, staff recommends that such £redit for land dedication be allowed. All other issues and recommended conditions of approval for Tentative Tract Map No. 12719 are included tn Resolution No. 2348. DESZGN REYXE14 The destgn review portion of Shadowbrook encompasses the site plan, butldtng elevations and common areas. Each of these topics wtll bve reviewed separately. Site Plan The basic site plan proposed is relatively straight forward. However, there are some aspects that differ from traditional single family subdivisions. The primary difference revolves around lot size and. a "zero lot line" concept. Average lot size within the project is in the 3,700 - 3,800'square foot range. Communizy Development Department Planntng Commission Report Shadowbrook page four As to the zero lot line concept, from the exhtbtts forwarded to t~e Commfsston, tt can been seen that tn certatn areas, yards designated for the use of one property o~ner "overlap" onto an adjacent property. At the same time this property o~ner foregoes use of a port, on of his/her lot to the lot on the opposite slde. Wtth thts concept, useable yard area for each lot ts maximized. For example, instead of providing ~o ftve foot wide areas on each stde of a home, a [0 foot area on one stde of the untt can be employed. A second untque feature to the stte plan ts the interior circulation system. Although private .streets are utilized, they will be constructed with curb to curb widths equivalent to standard street minimums. Also, sidewalks wtll be provided at the city standard of five feet ~n width. The only difference be~een a standard public street and this project ts that a parkway landscape area has not been provided. Ho~ever,'gtven structural setbacks and the fact the developer will tnsl~ll all front yard landscaping (to be maintained by a Homeowner's Association), the proposed street plan is very compatible wtth the type of housing units proposed. In addttton to vehicular circulation, a pedestrian 11nkage be~een porttons of the project separated by "A" Street on Map 1271g has been prepared. Specifically near the intersection of "A'" and "B" Streets a landscaped paseo for pedestrian access is tncluded on the site plan. F~nal detatls of this plan in co6rdtnatton wtth previously approved perimeter landscaping must be reviewed by staff prtor to construction and lnsl~llatlon. The last 1rem in terms of the stte plan concerns parEtng. Mtntmum parking' requirements in Phase ! calls for 2.5 parking spaces for each d~elltng unit, of which must be garages. The balance of required parking can be on-street spaces and/or wtthtn driveways as outlined in the Planned Community Regulations. In staff's revte~ of the site plan it was felt that credit should not be given for all parking spaces sho~n. It is realized that the areas indicated w~ll accommodate vehicles, however in terms of what should be considered for credtt, approximately 155 parking spaces, excluding garages have been Identified. This figure places the approved parking ratto for the project at 2.7 spaces per dwelling untt. However, actual available parking will Jn actuality be about 3.0+ spaces per unit. Elevattons [n keeptng with the Tustln Ranch theme, Shadowbrook homes have been designed wtth the use of traditional butldtng materials. Wood st~tng and embellishments along with wood simulated concrete roof tiles lend a rustic yet contemporary feeling to the project. As to overall project appearance, Integration of units with differing roof schemes, intermittent use of slngle sto~y units and the "Jogging" of structural  setbacks from street frontages, the mass of a large pro~ect has been broken up Community Development Department Planntng Commission Report Shadowbrook page five and distributed making the project a quallty addttton to the area. Ftnally, tn an effort to display the postttve appearance of Shadowbrook to the community at large, extra architectural treatments have been applted to rear elevations of units whtch abutt Browning, Bryan, E1 Camtno Real and the street shown as "8" Street. UNZTTRAN$~ER Although not a particular concern at this point, the issue of unit transfer does have implications that should be noted. As stated tn this report, the maximum unit count permit:ed for Area' [ is 264 while only 2[8 units are proposed. Pursuant to Section 2.[ of the East Tusttn Specific Plan, the 46 units that could be built in Area [ can be transferred into the Specific Plan area provided all conditions of the plan are met. This transfer process is fully detailed in the East Tusttn plan and from this pbtnt forward will be closely monitored by staff. CONCLUSIONS:- Subject to conditions of approval continued in Resolution No. 2348 staff has concluded that the proposed project meets or exceeds minimum requirements of applicable land use regulations. Further, staff ts confident that proposed building elevations and common recreation/landscape areas satisfy the intent of Planned Community Regulations for Phase ! tn that architectural quality treatments have been included tn the package submitted. Accordingly tt is recommended that the Co~ntsston recommend to City council approval of Tentative Tract Map [27[9 and that the Commission approve Design Review 86-12 by the adoptton of Resolution No. 2348 and 2349. ~ SENIOR PLANNER JD:do attach: Full size site plans, elevations and tract map.
