AUTHORIZATION TO DEVELOP 160 RESIDENTIAL UNITS BUILT TO CONDOMINIUM SPECIFICATIONS AND TO VARY NZTH THE NUMBER OF GUFST PARKING SPACES FROM .25 PER UNIT TO .11 PER UNIT. RECOI~4ENDED ACTION: Approve Use 'Permit 86-5 and Variance 86-1 by the adoption of Resolution No. 2302. BACKGROUND: Three separate projects were previously approved for this site, however, none have been constructed. In February 1981 a 208 unit co6dominium project was approved which was 3 story units over underground parking. In September 1983 a scaled down 161 condominium unit was approved. In March 1984 a 156 unit condominium unit was approved with at-grade parking. In July of 1985 Lincoln Properties requested authorization to develop a 160 uni.~ project and to vary with the guest parking standards. Community Development Department Planning Commission Report February 10, 1986 page two During each of these approved projects the issue concerning the extension of Newport Avenue through to Edinger Avenue was considered. At the time Lincoln Properties was denied {in July of 1985), the Redevelopment Agency acted to prepare a specific Newport Avenue alignment to resolve the potential right-of-way question. Because the study was only recently completed, staff will be making a recommendation to City Council that the City not pursue the extension of Newport Avenue to Edinger Street with a grade separation structure. Minimum engineering design criteria standards can not be attained with the grade separation structures as studied. The developer then' requested that his application be readvertised for Planning Commission consideration. PROJECT ANALYSIS: Lincoln Properties is now requesting authorization to proceed with the 160 unit apartment complex. In an attempt to construct the highest quality project and to provide maximum flexibility as market conditions dictate, the proposal includes developing the project to condominium standards. The applicant proposes to construct 160 units on a 6 acre parcel of vacant land. The site plans submitted and attached to this transmittal indicate that 338 parking spaces are provided for the units which indicates that 2.11 spaces are being provided for each unit. The code specifies that 2 parking spaces should be provided for each unit plus 1/4 space per unit for visitors. Because of the magnitude of the project and the fact that 40 visitor spaces will be provided by this plan, staff suggested that additional landscaping should be provided along the Newport Avenue frontage area rather than providing the extra visitor parking spaces. Also, seventy-six {76) of the units will be one-bedroom or studio units, which justifies the reduction in parking spaces needed for the project. Attached to this report is a calculation of parking requirements for the variance request. The PD District specifies that 400 sq. ft. per unit be provided for open space requirements. The intent of this open space provision of the district is to provide amenities for the occupants~ The developer is showing a 1,000 square foot clubhouse along with a 1400 square foot size pool and a spa area. Other open space areas include barbecue areas with landscaping between all buildings. Community Development Department Planning Commission Report February 10, 1986 page three The building elevations submitted show stucco with wood lattice trim and red concrete roof tiles. This style of architecture is commonly referred to as Spanish Mission style. A Negative Declaration was previously approved which had mitigation measures attached that pertained to sound attenuation. The approval of this project will also incorporate those sound attenuation measures as part of the conditions of approval in Exhibit "A" of Resolution No. 2202. All the conditions of approval from the various departments are listed in Exhibit "A" of Resolution No. 2~02. Included as part of this report is a project synopsis provided by the developer called "Newport Gardens." Tentative Tract No. 11370 has been filed in conjunction with this use permit to subdivide this property for condominium purposes. This report is listed under New Business No. 1.
