Oil Site AUGU 3, lg.7 Inter- Corn TO: WZLLZAiX HUSTON, EXECUTZYE DIRECTOR FROM: COHHUNZ'rY DEVELOPNENT DEPARTHENT SUBdECT: DESZGN REVZEIJ 87-23/SOUTHERN COUNTZES OTL SZTE u RECOI~ENDATZON It is recommended that the Redevelopment Agency approve the site plan and architectural design of a proposed self-service, commercial fuel facility to be located on contiguous parcels located at 13918-13922 Newport and 1016-1022 Bonita. SU~ARY For approximately the last 57 years, Southern Counties 0tl has operated a commercial fuel pumping facility and a bulk oil storage operation on the properties located on the northeast corner of E1 Camino Real and Newport Avenue. The site also houses office space for the Tustin operation. Presently, Southern Counties Oil is in the process of relocating its offices and bulk oil operation to a larger industrial site. However, the company wishes to retain the self-service, commercial fuel dispensing pumps in the immediate vicinity and has purchased the site formerly occupied by Rasmussen's Saddlery for this purpose. On July 27, 1987 the Planning Commission approved Use Permit 87-14 and Variance 87-4 authorizing the commercial fuel facility as well as deviations from certain setback requirements. Resolutions approving these actions with supporting staff report are included with this report. The subject site is located within the South Central Redevelopment Project Area and as such Redevelopment Agency approval of the project's overall design is required by the Redevelopment Plan. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS General - Submitted development plans propose construction and operation of a 24 hour self-service, card-lock, fuel pumping facility to be located on the southeast corner of Newport Avenue and Bonita Avenue on a lon9 and narrow 0.31 acre site in the C-1 Retail Commercial Zonin9 District. The Redevelopment Agency Report Destgn Review 87-23/Southern Counties 0tl August 3, 1987 Page subject site Is bounded on the east by a restdentlal structure, on the south by a retat] shopptng center across Bonita, to the north by an abandoned service statfon, and to the west across Newport Avenue by commercla] uses wlthtn the Tustfn Plaza Project. Site improvements proposed on the subject property will tnclude t~o pump islands, a 10 foot landscaping strtp along the street frontage of Newport and Bonita, a 120 square foot control butldlng at the southeast corner of the property, an eight (8) foot block wall along the easterly property 11ne, a lO0 foot landscape buffer tn front of the wall, and a freestanding buslness Identification sign in the required street yard setback. Consistent wfth current gufdellnes for self-serving servfce stations, three standard sized parking spaces are also proposed adjacent to the easterly property line. Site plan - Of matn concern with the site layout is circulation and access. Given the configuration of the stte and constraints posed by a median Island on Newport Avenue, a one-way ctrculatlon pattern proposed. Yehfcular movements will be restricted to entering the site from Newport Avenue and exiting onto Bonfta to avotd truck traffic on Bonita vehtcles wfll be requtred to turn right upon exttfng. Pump tslands have been moved as far north as possible and the proposed control butldlng has been moved to the southeast to accommodate stacking of vehicles, particularly larger trucks. While the proposed circulation pattern is the best alternative available given existing constraints, there may still be potential impediments to free flowing traffic on Bonita. In the event that an exiting truck would not be able to complete a maneuver in to the appropriate traffic lane, traffic turning onto Bonita from Newport Avenue could be obstructed. While there has been expressed concern about truck movements onto Bonita and along Nowport Avenue. These concerns can be addressed in the following manner. First, traffic counts onto Bonita are relatively low. While precise counts are not available, the residential nature of local streets, and the lack of a traffic signal generally result in lower vehicular trips. Secondly, as required by City ordinance and recommended by the Public Works Department, additional right-of-way and improvement will be required on the southeast corner of Bonita and Newport Avenue. Even though this improvement will result in a smoother turning radius and will allow greater visibility to drivers turning onto Bonita, the applicant intends upon requesting that the City Council waive the dedication requirement. The applicant also has indicated that only 30~ of vehicles served are large trucks. Corn rnunity Development Department Redevelopment Agency Report Design Review 87-23/Southern Counties 0fl Site August 3, 1987 Page three Finally, the Planning Commission has requested that trucks be serviced in the future at an alternate site which the applicant intends to purchase elsewhere in the city and completed construction of a servicing facility but- not to exceed 18 months. Extensions of time may be granted by the Commission. Therefore, with the physical conditions of traffic counts and the new curb and radius in mind, and a recommended condition of approval that the site only serves trucks for a period of not more than 18 months and/or until completion of an alternative facility, staff recommends approval of the requested use and temporary circulation recommended. Architectural Destgn -In terms of architecture the only structures proposed on the site are a 120 square foot equipment control building, an 8 foot block wall, and a trash enclosure. The unattended control building shown near the southeast corner of the property is proposed to be setback 5'8" from the easterly properly line. The C-1 District requires a minimum 10' setback at this location. Variance 87-4, the Planning Commission authorized this location in lieu of the C-1 requirement to provide for maximum vehicular circulation on site. To be compatible with the surrounding area, the applicant proposes the use of stucco and spanish tile on the control building. Staff also recommends the use of revels on control building in a pattern similar to the Tustin Plaza Project. It is recommended that the stucco finish be the same as applied to Tusttn Plaza: a plaster and trowel finish. The same finish and detail is to be applied to the adjacent trash enclosure. Final colors and revel details should be subject to review and approval of the Director of Community Development. As to the block wall, it is recommended that the same finish material, color, and revel detail used on the control building be applied to the wall. This will ensure internal consistency and compatibility on the site. Both sides of the wall should be plastered. The purpose of the eight foot wall in lieu of the standard 6'8" height is to provide a sight and sound buffer between the proposed use and adjacent residential units. Landscaping - The Newport Avenue frontage has been provided with a ten (10) foot landscape area that is very compatible with the Primrose project immediately to the north. A combination of sod and accent shrubs using an earthen berm or mounding technique has been provided along the arterial. Additionally, landscape buffer between the project and the adjacent residential zone is also proposed. This treatment is consistent with adopted landscape guidelines. As approved by the Planning Commission the landscape plan calls for the use of 15 gallon eucalyptus trees on-site with the exception of 24" box size to be located at entry points. Community Development Department Redevelopment Agency Report Destgn Review 87-23/Southern Counties 0tl Site August 3, 1987 Page four CONCLUSZONS As approved by the Planning Commission the subject project addresses site, architectural, and landscape requirements of the zontng ordinance as well as provisions of South Central Redevelopment Plan.

SUI~IARY: For approximately the ]ast 57 years, Southern Counties 0il has operated a commercial fuel pumping facility and a bulk oil storage operation on the properties located on the northeast corner of El Camino Real and tlewport Avenue. The site also houses office space for the Tustin operation. At this time Southern Counties is in the process of relocating its offices and bulk oil operation to a larger industrial site. However, the company wishes to retain the self-service, commercial fuel dispensing pumps in the immediate vicinity and has purchased the site formerly occupied by Rasmussen's Saddlery for this purpose. .-Pursuant to various sections o'f the Zonin~ Ordinance, a Conditional Use Permit required for service stations or gasoline dispursing operations. .,dditiona]ly, since the pro~ect is within the Town Center Redevelopment Pro~ect Area, a formal design review process is also mandated. Finally,. in con.~unct, ion with the propos.ed project the following discretionary actions oy the ~,ann~ng Commission are a~so necessary: Communit,~ Development Department ?lanning Commission Report . Use Permit 87-14/Variance 87-04 July 27, lg87 Page two 1. The project site plan indicates an eight (8) foot block wall along ~he easterly propert~ line. A Conditional Use Permit is required for any wall above 6'8" in height. 2. The free-standing control building is located within th~ required stdeyard setback. A Variance to setback requirements must be approved prior to construction of the structure as shown. 3. The project identification sign is shown within the required highway ~etback area. A Variance to setback requirements must be approved prior to construction Of the sign as shown. The project, as advertised, also included a request to vary with setback requirements by allowing ~ncroachment of overhead canopies in the front and side yard setbacks. However, after discussions between staff and the applicant, this portion of the application wa.s withdrawn. For purposes of presenting a comprehensive view of the proposed development, each of the issues noted will be addressed within the body of this transmittal. ~owever, separate formal actions by the commission will be required on each component. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: Seneral - Submitted development plans propose construction and operation of a 24 hour self-service, card-lock, fuel pumping facility to 'be located on the southeast corner of Newport Avenue-and Bonita Avenue on a long and narrow 0.31 acre site in the C-! Retail Commercial Zoning District. The subject site is bounded on the east by a residential structure, on the south by a retail shopping center across Bonita, to the north by an abandoned service station, and to the west across Newport Avenue by commercial uses within the Tustin Plaza Project. The type of facility proposed will be totally self-serving and be unattended by Company personnel. With this system customers insert a credit card into service pumps, receive the product, and immediately leave the site. The facility will service both standard automobiles as well as commercial trucks which may be as large as 50-70 feet in length. Site improvements proposed on the subject property will include two pump islands, a 10 foot landscaping strip along the street frontage of Newport and Bonita, a 120 square foot control building at the southeast corner of the property, an eight {8) foot block wall along the easterly property line, a foot landscape buffer in front of the wall, and a freestanding business identification sign in the required street yard setback. Consistent with current guidelines for self-serving service stations, three standard sized parking spaces are also proposed adjacent to the easterly property line. Community DeveloPment Department Planntng Commission Report Use Permtt 87-14/Variance 87-04 July 27, 1987 Page three Condlttona? Use *Permit.87-14 is a request to authorize the subject use and the proposed eight (8) foot wall. Vartance 87-04 would authortze,'placement of the proposed ~tgn and control building wtthtn required setback areas. Circulatlon and Access: -Gtven the configuration of the stte and constraints posed by a median Island on Newport Avenue, a one-way circulation pattern Is proposed. Vehicular movements will be restricted to entering the sfte from Newport Avenue and extttng onto Bontta. Pump islands have been moved as far north as'possible and the proposed control bu~ldfng has been moved to the southeast to accommodate stacking of vehicles, particularly larger trucks. Whtle the proposed circulation pattern Is the best alternative available given existing constraints, there may still be potential impediments to free f~owlng trafftc on Bonita. In the event that an extting truck would not be able to complete'a maneuver in to the appropriate traffic lane, trafftc turning onto Bonita from Newport Avenue could be obstructed. While there has been expressed concern about truck movements onto Bontta and tlong Newport Avenue. These concern can be addressed in the following manner. Ftrst, traffic counts onto Bonita are relatively low. Whtle prectse counts are not available, the residential nature of local streets, and the lack of a traffic signal generally result in lower vehicular trtps. Secondly, ~s Tequlred by Ctty ordinance and recomaended by the Public Works Department, additional right-of-way and Improvement w111 be required on the southeast corner of Bonita' and Newport Avenue. This improvement wtl~' result in a smoother turning radius and w111 allow greater visibility tO drivers turning onto 8oni. ta. Finally, the applicant has indicated that only 30~ of vehicles served are large trucks. Additionally, it is anticipated that within approximately one year, trucks wtl~ no longer be servtced at the subject locatfons. Instead, these vehicles will be servlced at the larger industrial location the applicant intends to purchase. Therefore, with the phystcal conditions of traffic counts and the new curb and radius in mtnd, and a recommended condition of~ approval that the site only serves trucks for a period of not more than 12 months, staff recommends approval of the requested use and temporary circulation recommended. : [t should be noted that the applicant ts not in favor of dedicating additional right-of-way at the corner of Newport and 8onita. However, the Planntn~ Commission does not have discretion in this matter and any waiver of right-of-way requirements can only be approved by the Cfty Council. Community DeveloPment DeparTment Planning Commission Report July 27, [987 Use Permit 87-14/¥arlance 87-04 - Page four Landscaptn~ - The Newpqrt Avenue frontage has been provided with a ten (lO) fbot landscape area that is very compatible with the Primrose project immediately to the north. A combination of sod and accent shrubs Using an earthen berm or mounding -technique has been provided along the arterial. Additionally, landscape buffer between the project and the adjacent residential zone is also proposed. While the landscape concept plan is acceptable, trees have not been provided in sizes consistent with recently prepared landscaping standards. For example, all street frontage trees (Carrotwoods) are shown to be [5 gallon size as opposed to required 24" box. Additionally, the~e trees are to be on-site and not within the public right-of-way. All eucalyptus trees are shown as 15 gallon size in lieu of the standard 24" box. Staff would suggest that proposed trees adjacent to entry points on the project be 24" box, with the remaining treew [5 gallon size. It is also suggested that the 15 gallon eucalyptus are acceptable along the eastern property line as this size tends to grow much faster than larger, older trees. Eight Foot Block Wall - The site plan shows an eight (8) foot masonry block wall along the eastern property line. Pursuant to the Zoning code a 6'8" wall is the maximum height allowed for this required wall. However, pursuant to the Zoning Code with approval of a Conditional Use a block wall may exceed 6'8" in height. The proposed eight (8) foot wall will provide a visual and sound buffer between the proposed use and adjacent residential uses to the east. Staff's main concern is the aesthetic quality of an eight (8) foot structure spanning over the entire length of the property. To improve the visual quality of the site it is recommended that the block will'be textured, colored and stuccoed including the use of revels in a pattern similar to walls on the Tustin Plaza project. Free-standin) Control Buildtn~ - The unattended control building shown near the southeast corner of the property is proposed to be is setback 5'8" from the easterly property line. The C-[ District requires a minimum 10' setback at this location. Although it is possible to shift the structure westerly so that a variance would not be required,, such movement would impact thq vehicle circulation pattern on the site. Legal support for the granting of tha variance is based upon the subject property's size and shape being long and narrow and the special circumstances of a public alley being immediately adjecent to the property. Free-standtn~ Business Identification St~n - Applicant proposes to install a 32 square foot monument sign for business identification within the 15 foot arterial highway setback area. A variance is required since a-free-standing sign is by definition a structure and structures are not permitted within setback areas. In apprving previous signs in the area, however, this applicable section of the Zoning Code was inadvertently overlooked and several signs have been authorized in setback areas. Upon future revisions to the Sign Code, this area will be clarified and standardized. In the meantime, applicants that wish to place signs in street setback areas must first obtain a Variance. Corn rnunity DeveloPment Departrnent J Planning Commission Report July 27, 1987 Use Permit 87-14/¥artance 87-04 Page ftve Since it can be argued that denial of the Variance request would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the general vicinity under similar circumstances, approval of Variance 87-04 as it pertains to the sign can be supported~ Such action is consistent witfl Section 9471 of the S~gn Code which establishes criteria for granting of sign variances. Architectural Design - To 'be compatible with the surrounding, area, the applicant propses the use of stucco and spanish tile on the control building. To ensure compatibility on the site, staff is recommending that the same finish material be used on the block walT. Staff would also recommend the use of revels along the block wall, trash enclosure and control building in a pattern similar to the Tusttn Plaza Project. It is recommended that the stucco finish be the same as applied to Tustin Plaza: a plaster and trowel finish. Final colors and revel details should be subject to review and approval of tile Director of Community Development. Although to date staff have not reviewed colors, copy, or configuration of the propsed sign. It is recommended that the sign be compatible in design and color with the balance of the project subject to final review and approval of the ~irector of Community Development.
