8. EAST TUSTIN PLANNED COMMUNITY/PHASE I RESIDENTIAL
Draft EIR 84-3
General Plan Amendment 84-4
Zone Change 85-4
Applicant:
Location:
Request:
Monica Florian on behalf of The Irvine Company
An area bounded by the I-5 freeway, Bryan Avenue, Browning
Avenue and the proposed Jamboree Road.
To amend the General Plan Land Use designation and property
zoning to permit development of a Planned Residential Community
consisting of single-family detached, attached and apartment
dwelling units adjoining a public park.
Presentation:
Donald D. Lamm, Director of Community Development
Chairman White opened the public hearing at 8:42 p.m.
Commissioner McCarthy questioned the zero lot line versus the 5' side set back on
each house. With the easement given to the adjoining property owner, can the
adjoining property owner build a brick patio or anything else on it. Staff responded
that the easement is for surface use only which include landscape purposes and
non-permanent structures which would not require a permit. They could surface it
with some material that would not violate their CC&Rs. McCarthy further questioned
if flood insurance would be required because this is a flood plain area. Staff
responded they believe when the project is in place and adequate flood control
· protection is provided homeowners would not be required by their lenders to have
flood control insurance. However, The Irvine Company could better address this.
Planning Commission Minutes
June 10, 1985
page five
Brad Olson, The Irvine Company, explained that after the public testimony at the last
meeting they reviewed what had been proposed and what adjustment in the plan could be
done to address the public concerns. Referring to the statistical summary, page
three of the May 13, 1985 staff report, he proposed some adjustments to the maximum
density per gross acre category for each of the three density classifications shown:
Medium/Low density {33 gross acres, orginal request 10 units per gross acre) they
propose to reduce that maximum density to 8 units per gross acre which would delete
66 detached dwellings; 21% reduction in density for the single-family detached area
or the medium low density area. Medium density area (14 units per gross acre) they
proposed a reduction of 1 unit per gross acre from 14 to 13. This reduces the total
dwelling units from 294 to 2?3; 21 units a 7% reduction. Apartment area across the
street from the auto center {22 units per gross acre) they propose a reduction to 19
units per gross acre bringing total unit count from 594 to 513 or a 14% reduction.
The combined total change from the original proposal is a decrease of 168 units
approximately 13.8% overall reduction and a decrease in the overall density. He
continued to address the development standards with respect to future use permits.
He further addressed parking. He referred to the parking study they performed.
Their commitment is to park their projects within the boundaries; it is their belief
that the parking ratios offered will work based on past experience. They have
included a variation in the parking standards for assigned units. With some
flexibility with one permanent and one flexible it solves the problem and spreads the
parking.
Finally, the zero lot line type of development is a good idea. It provides for
flexibility and variation in street scene. They would happy to incorporate it.
The environmental concerns have been dealt adequately. Flood control and circulation
long term improvements are incorporated in the assessment district petition on file
with the city. The interim improvements will be provided whether as part of the auto
center or residential. They have no interest in creating a project with houses that
flood. Also, the circulation improvements planned will provide relief from the
congestion.
With respect to schools, The Company has initiated a facility financing study. It is
their hope that this study will identify how existing closed facilities can be
brought back on line and identify future funding sources. They intend to work
cooperatively with the district and to find a way to accommodate the students
generated from this project. They agree that the request from the District is not
within the city's power to compel or the Company's power to deliver but it does not
get in their way to work with the District and to accommodate the students added to
the area.
Clayton Parker, of Parker and Covert representing the Tustin Unified School District,
referred to letters previously filed with the city on this project. Addressed his
comments solely to the impact on the schools in TUSD and how to assure there will be
schools to serve children generated by this project.
McCarthy expressed his pleasure with the new densities proposed but still had
concerns with parking and thought park acreage should be greater in higher density
areas; namely the apartment area.
Further Commission discussion ensued concerning park allocation for private parks and
recreatin areas in townhome and condominium areas.
Planning Commission Minutes
June 10, 1985
page six
In response to Commission questions, staff explained the Planning Commission would
have the authority to determine if the park location and configuration is
appropriate; the equipment within the park has to meet a certain minimum level to
qualify for parkland dedication creditation outlined in the parkland dedication
ordinance. Ultimately acceptance of a park credit, private or public, is up to the
City Council upon Commission recommendation. The Council makes the final decision as
to the dollar creditation.
White questioned how many total units are being proposed. Olson: 1050.
Puckett asked for clarification on the planned community zoning regulations, Section
4 Item C " whenver the regulations contained herein conflict with the
regulations ~f the city of Tustin zoning code the regulations of the East Tustin
Phase I residential planned community district shall take precedence". Staff
explained East Tustin is being processed via a planned community process. The
statement referred to is somewhat of a generic one so that if by chance during the
authorship of this document, which was somewhat of a joint effort between the Company
and city, a particular development standard was missed then we are to use the city's
zoning code. But, if the standards are listed in both the city code and the East
Tustin Phase I document, the regulations take precedence.
Well proposed that anything more than a two bedroom house require an 18' driveway,
sufficient for an extra car. A three bedroom house has a very good chance of having
a third family car. Her goal is to provide facilities so that family cars can be kept
off the street.
Staff explained that the present city zoning code which applies to multiple family
requires %wo covered assigned spaces per unit regardless of the number of bedrooms
and one guest space which is unassigned and open for every four units. This equates
to 2.25 spaces per unit. That applies in all multiple family zones. The Irvine
Company proposal is more related to the size of the unit versus a flat standard. The
number of spaces is related to the bachelor, one and two bedroom. The bachelor and
one bedroom are less than our current standards. They originally sought one space
covered and assigned for the bachelor and 1.50 of which one would be covered for the
one bedroom. This is less than our original code. We have submitted a compromise
proposal; its in the original staff report on page 7. In essence, the parking
standards are less than what we presently have in effect for bachelors and one
bedroom condominiums and townhomes; less for apartments up to two bedrooms; three
bedrooms are the same as our code.
Staff further clarified that our present code requires a double car garage per single
family home regardless of the size. It also requires a 20' set-back which equates to
a 20' driveway. In apartments we presently require the two spaces per unit covered
assigned and 1/4 space for every unit. The same ratio for multiple family.
Brad Olson interjected that there are several ways to address parking. First, the
width of the street to accommodate cars parked on the street. It is not effective to
not park on the street with what it costs to build the street. Another alternative
is through CC&Rs you can impose a requirement that folks who have two cars must keep
those cars in the garage. Often the garage gets used for storage and the driveway
for parking. He further commented that with densities of 8 per acre with 18' to 20'
set backs what you basically do is trade a driveway for a backyard. Everything is
forced back into living area. It becomes a trade off. They are trying to maximize
the living area left on the lot.
Planning Commission Minutes
June 10, 1985
page seven
Staff explained that in the event there is no conditional use permit process the
Commission would have the design review process for final site plans for placement of
the homes, the driveway lengths, the street widths, typical elevations of each of the
homes, exterior wall designs along perimeter arterial roads and the landscape set
back treatment along interior and exterior streets, and the park plan. It would be
"non-discretionary". The Commission would only have the authority to change it
within tolerable limits to meet the intent of the code.
Commission discussion ensued concerning flooding and the E1Modena channel capacity.
The city's position is that since The Irvine Company will pay $36,000,000 to improve
the channel from Browning and Bryan to I-5 it is the Orange County Flood Control
District's responsibility to improve the channel upstream.
Further discussion ensued concerning the school district concerns. The city is in
the business of land use control not education, but are cognizant of the district's
needs and trying to work with them. There has not been total cooperation between the
city and district at this point. Don Lamm asked publicly that the district, city and
Irvine Company get together on this issue to try to resolve it. There is no
statutory law for the city to impose fees on the Irvine Company.
Weil moved to adopt Resolution 2223 recommending approval of the Draft EIR 83-3
subject to the mitigation measures, Puckett second. Motion carried 4-0.
Puckett moved approval of General Plan Amendment 84-4 by adopting Resolution 2224,
Weil second. Motion carried 4-0.
McCarthy moved approval of Zone Change 85-4 to allow the counter proposal on the
density by The Irvine Company of 8 units for medium low, 13 for medium density and 19
for medium high density. Well seconded for discussion. Commission discussion ensued
concerning parking standards and the possibility of considering them separate from
the zone change. Well continued with one minor change to the PC regs, under B.3.(f)
(animals prohibited from the properties) would like to include poultry be prohibited.
Olson stated that The Irvine Company is agreeable to two covered parking spaces for
the multi family for sale two bedroom units.
Further Commission discussion ensued concerning parking for four bedroom units.
White restated the motion again. Moved and seconded that the zone change be approved
with the new unit limit; with the parking ratio as amended for 2.0 covered and
addition of a 4 bedroom unit; and, prohibiting poultry. Motion carried 4-0.

Applicant:

Request:
Monica Florian on behalf of The Irvine Company
An area bounded by the I-5 freeway, Bryan Avenue, Browning
Avenue and the proposed Jamboree Road.
To subdivide approximately 107 acres of land providing for
development of specific land uses pursuant to the Phase I
Planned Community zoning regulations.
Presentation:
Donald D. Lamm, Director of Community Development
Chairman White opened the public hearing at 10:00 p.m.
Brad Olson, The 1trine Company, referred to the June loth staff report. He
questioned item 6, existing condition 20, proposed language" reservation or
dedication as determined by the city engineer of adequate right-of-way for future
Interstate 5 .... " The Company proposed ".. · reservation for future acquisition
of adequate right-of-way " Dedication implies a gift. He thought how the
acquisition of the right-of-way takes place is between The Company and Caltrans.
Clayton Parker, TUSD, expressed the same concerns as with the Phase I. They do not
think the map should be recorded until the district certifies that adequate school
facilities are available or the developer has provided mitigation as requested by the
school district in its letter addressed to the city dated March 21, 1985.
Carol Taylor, 13532 Farmington, asked Mr. Parker when Utt school would be reopened.
Mr. Parker responded that one of the requests of mitigation is to open Utt school.
The District does not have the funds to reopen.
Staff addressed Mr. Olson's concern with item 6. Reservation means Caltrans pays for
the land; dedication means they do not have to. We worded the condition so the City
Engineer had the option in working with Caltrans.
Seeing no one further wish to speak, Chairman White closed the hearing at 10:10 p.m.
White moved approval of Tentative Map 12345, Puckett second. McCarthy amended that
no grading or berming in the Phase I area be allowed until the E1 Modena Channel is
complete. Well seconded the amendment. Well moved to amend item 6 to read
"reservation". McCarthy second.
Discussion ensued concerning increased flooding potential during construction of the
auto center and the Company request that the berm improvement be at the discretion of
the City Engineer.
Well withdrew her second to the motion.
White moved, Puckett second to approve Tentative Map 12345 with the density
reflecting that in the Planned Community Zone Regulations, Puckett second. Motion
carried 4-0. First amendment: Well moved, Puckett second to require a storm drain
phasing plan shall be processed through the City Engineer and approved by him to show
that the construction of this project shall not in any way make the flooding
situation worse before it gets better on Browning Avenue. Motion carried 3-1.
Second amendment: amend condition 19 to delete the word "dedication" and replace it
with "reservation". Motion carried 4-0.

14851 TO 14921 NEWPORT/VACANT PARCEL AT THE SOUTHERLY TERMINUS OF
NEWPORT AVENUE
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT (PO) DISTRICT.
AUTHORIZATION TO DEVELOP A 160 UNIT APARTHENT COMPLEX AND VARY
FROM PARKING STANDARDS OF THE PD ZONE.
BACKGROUND:
Resulting from several actions by the Planning Agency and subsequently the
Planning Commission, three separate projects on the subject site have been
approved. In February 1981 a 208 unit condominium project was approved; in
September 1~83 a scaled down, 161 unit condominium project was authorized; and
finally in March 1984 a 156 unit condominium complex was approved. To date,
none of the three projects have been constructed.
During review of each previously approved project, the issue concerning
extension of Newport Avenue through to Edinger was considered. The goal of the
city had been to extend Newport utilizing an at grade approach. Since
alternative road plans were not available, nor were financing mechanisms,
projects were approved with the understanding that at some date the Newport
extension may impact the development.
Circumstances surrounding the extension issue have however changed. Based in
part on a January 1985 study compiled by Austin-Foust Associates, Inc. and on
the fact that the Public Utilities Commission will not permit an at grade
crossing, three possible alternatives for the Newport extension have been
formalized. Additionally, a proposed amendment to the South/Central Plan is
scheduled before the Council on July 15, 1985. Therefore, the likelihood of the
Newport extension project being constructed in the near future has been
increased. Accordingly, it is essential that any new development on the subject
property be reviewed considering the impacts of the extension.
Community Development Department
Planning Commission Report

DISCUSSION:
Use Permit 85-16
The applicant, Lincoln Property Company, has submitted a development, proposing
a 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. With the
exception of a few minor alterations necessary on the site plan, staff under
other circumstances would recommend approval of the project. Unfortunately
however, remaining unresolved issue is the precise alignment of the Newport
Avenue extension.
Extension of Newport Avenue
The attached exhibits display the three alternatives formulated by Austin-Foust
Associates for extending Newport Avenue. Each alternative would have a definite
impact on the proposed project. Alternative No. 1, calling for an overcrossing
to Edtnger~ would completely preclude the subject project from being developed.
While less of an impact, Alternatives 2 and 3 would also significantly impact
the project. In staff's estimation, the project as designed would lose
approximately 60 units and 100 parking spaces.. Additionally, on-site
circulation would be impacted.
ANALYSIS:
With the constraints presented by the extension of Newport Avenue and the
uncertainties surrounding precise alignment of that extension, staff cannot at
this time recommend approval of Use Permit 85-16. To approve the project as
submitted would be inconsistent with the South/Central Redevelopment Plan, as
well as other adopted traffic circulation documents as they relate to the City's
overall transportation system.
It should be clearly stated that the staff's recommendation is based upon the
Newport Avenue issues and not a reflection of the proposed project. In fact,
without the impacts of the extension, the project as proposed Would be a
positive addition to the area and would be supported by staff.
Community Development Department
Planning Commission Report

R£COF~ENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the Commission deny, without prejudice, Use Permit
Application 85-16. Denial in this manner permits the applicant to re-apply once
a specific alignment is designed by city engineering and approved by Council.
Staff further recommends the Commission request the Redevelopment Agency cause
the preparation of a specific Newport Avenue alignment to resolve the potential
right-of-way question.

SUBJECT: PASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN / TUSTIN AUTO CENTER
APPLICANT: THE IRYINE COHPANY
REQUEST:
THE DEVELOPHENT OF A PASTER DEVELOPHENT PLAN IN ACCORDANCE gITH
SECTION II! B OF THE PLANNED COI~4UN]TY REGULATIONS FOR THE TUST[N
AUTO CENTER.
BACKGROUND:
As a part of the Auto Center public heartn9 process, a condition was added to
the Planned Community Regulations that required The [rvlne Company to submit a
Master Development Plan. The plan would incorporate certain elements of the
Auto Center design and regulation, and would be adopted by resolution by the
Planning Commission.
The Irvine Company has been working on these development standards for several
months, with the following submitted for review and approval from the
Commission.
DISCUSSION:
The Master Development Plan is divided into five separate sections, covering:
project design criteria; landscape master plan and design criteria; planned sign
program; loudspeaker criteria; and Planned Community Regulations.
The project design criteria is the most encompassing of the five sections,
covering architectural guidelines, materials, walls and fences, exterior
lighting, setbacks, and other miscellaneous topics.
The main thrust behind the architectural guidelines is to provide the dealers
with design concepts and details that will help them in developing a high
quality architectural design. The guidelines develop a common architectural
style that is meant to provide enough flexible to encourage creativity, but
maintain a consistent style in which buildings compliment each other.
As stated in a staff report to the Commission for the June 24th meeting, there
is a dealership in for design review that apparently does not meet the intent of
the design criteria. The Irvine Company has submitted a letter to staff that
the dealership has been reviewed and approved by the Company, but does not
comply with the proposed design criteria. The Company feels that due to the
exceptional quality and proportion of the design, the dealership will create a
strong point of interest and primary entrance to the Auto Center.
Community Developmen~ Department
Planning Commission Report
Auto Center
page ~o
The Company proposes to add an exception clause to the design criteria that will
permit designs that deviate from the standards if they, "express unique or
exceptional qualities of design or demonstrates quality of detailing and
upgrading of construction beyond that normally found in automobile dealerships."
Essentially, the design criteria would serve as a minimum standard of design,
with exceptions considered for buildings that significantly exceed that
standard.
At no time has either the City or the Company felt that the proposed dealership
was a substandard design. Staff feels that the design is of excellent quality
and would be a definite asset to the community. The contention has been between
the design and the Company's criteria.
Since the Company has already approved the design in spite of its own criteria,
this leaves the City in the position of enforcing the design criteria through a
redesign of the dealership. This would not be productive since it causes more
of a hardship to the dealer, who is attempting to accomplish the many layers of
approval before construction can begin. Additionally,. under any other
circumstances the city would not consider turning down a design of this quality.
Instead of causing needless delay to the dealer, staff' recommends that the
exception clause be accepted and added to the design criteria. The primary
reason for this recommendation is that exceptions will only be considered if
they exceed the design criteria standards. Since the design standards propose a
level of architecture acceptable to staff, then the 'exception clause provides
dealers with a vehicle to propose designs that go significantly beyond this
initial standard'. The primary intent of staff is not to cause needless delay,
but encourage a high quality development where dealerships compliment each
other.
The proposed sign program details the selection and size of all signs located
within the Auto Center complex. Auto Center identification signs on the major
arterials and the I-5 freeway will be handled at a later date.
The sign program is fairly straightforward, but staff does recommend the
following changes. Under Section B, Street Identification Signs: that the
number of streetfront signs be limited to two per dealership, regardless of the
size of the lot, and that the size of these street front signs be limited to
ninety (90) square feet per face.
Staff further recommends that the following comments be placed with the planned
sign program: Except for the sign regulations contained within this sign
program, all remaining regulations contained within the Tusttn Sign Ordinance
are applicable and valid. Each business is 'required to obtain a sign permit for
ny sign proposed for the dealership.
Community Development Department
Planning Commission Report

One of the main concerns of the adjacent propertyowners was the use of
loudspeakers by the dealers. The city of Tustln does have a ~oise Ordinance
adopted in [980 which dealers must conform with, but the Commission felt that
specific performance standards were needed for the auto center complex.
The noise crtterta section of the Master Development Plan contatns a proposed
set of noise standards based on a noise analysis done for the McLean Cadtllac
paging system. McLean Cadillac encompasses lots one (1) and two (2) and is the
closest lot ~o proposed residential unfts across Jamboree Road. Due to its size
and proximity to proposed residential units, it is considered to have the
greatest impact.
The data from the noise study shows that the impact at the nearest existing
dwelling units along Browning Avenue will be 35 db(A), without any development
in the Phase I area. (The term db{A) incorporates the pressure magnitude of a
sound-db, with an attenuation of the frequency - response characteristics that
approximate the frequency sensitivity of the human hearing system - A. The
A-weighting network "slows" the response to the sound leval .meter, representing
what would happen when sound strikes the human eardrum.) The chart included in
the noise criteria shows A-weighted levels for sources with which most people
are familiar. An impact of 35 db(A) is equal to library or quiet 'rural
nighttime. According to the noise consultant, this noise impact of 35 db(A)
would not be perceivable at Browning Avenue. Further, this level did not
consider any development in the Phase I area, that will additionally lower the
impact caused by the auto center to the Browning AvenUe area.
The impact to the proposed residential units along Jamboree Road will be in the
vicinity of 60 db(A), or the equivalent of conversation at three {3) feet. This
figure did not take into account any sound attenuation walls along Jamboree Road
which is a requirement to mitigate noise levels caused by the traffic on
Jamboree Road. The 60 db(A) level meets the standard of the Noise Ordinance,
and the inclusion of sound attenuation walls will exceed the standard.
Without the sound attenuation walls and the background noise levels caused by
Jamboree Road and the 1-5 freeway, the 60 db{A) level would be perceivable to
the dwelling units along Jamboree Road.
Taking these data into consideration, sound system standards were.developed.
The use of loudspeakers will be limited to between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and
7:00 p.m. The use of a multiple zone system is required rather than a single
area system. All loudspeakers must be directed to the interior of the lot.
Maximum sound levels for the auto center loudspeaker system will be: 35 db(A)
at Browning Avenue 55 db(A) to the outside of the soundwall along Jamboree
Road,and 65 db{A) to any adjacent commercial' use outside of the auto center.
Community Development Department
Planning Commission Report
Auto Center
page four
Additionally, prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, sound
readings will be taken by an experienced acoustical engineer to ensure
compliance. Further, the volume adjustment must be locked off to preclude any
arbitrary increase in volume.
These regulations represent only the key standards, others are included under
the sound system standards located in the Master Development Plan. Staff feels
that these provisions are sufficient, but recommends the following additions or
changes:
1. Standard number three (3): Change the word "may" to "shall" The word
"may" is normally considered permissive, while "shall" is mandatory.
Dealers should periodically check the system for compliance with this
established criteria. Dealers that violate the standards established for
the auto center may be subject to enforcement in accordance with the
city's municipal code.
RECOI~ENDEO ACTION:
Staff recommends that the Commission approve the Master Development Plan' with
amendments, and direct staff, to prepare a resolution of approval.

RE: McLean Cadillac
Tustin Auto Center
Dear Ed:
As you have observed, the building which the McLean brothers are proposing
to construct in the Tustin Auto Center does not comply with some elements
of the project's Master Development Plan. The Irvine Company has
approved the proposed design, however, for the following reasons and
with the following stipulations:
1. The showroom building shows potential for an architectural
statements of exceptional quality and preportion. The Irvine Company
Believes it will create a strong point of interest at a primary entrance
to the Auto Center.
2, The dealers recognize that the quality suggested by the
sketch will depend heavily on precise execution of details, and have
agreed to bring the drawings back to our architectural review board
several times during design development to assure us that th~s detailing
is being pursued and fully achieved.
3. We have advised the McLeans that the building which they have
proposed will be more costly to build than they might experience if
they chose a building more representative of our criteria. We have
further advised them that our approval of the proposal is contingent
their agreement not to pursue cost-saving construction methods which
would compromise the architectural quality of this building. They have
concurred with this stipulation.
4. The McLeans understand that we are concerned that their building
function as an integral part of the Auto Center, rather than appearing

independent from the rest of the project. This integration will be
achieved through the use of building materials which are common throughout
the project and which are suggested by the project's material sample
board.
We anticipate that in the near future we will be receiving more fully
deatiled drawings from the McLeans, which we will review closely for
compliance with the concerns expressed above.

SUBJECT:
JULY 8, 1985
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION DESIGNATING A SPECIFIC DATE FOR
ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN AND VICE CHAIRMAN OF PLANNING COMMISSION
DISCUSSION:
When the ordinance (No. 874) creating the Planning Commission was approved by
the City Council, no provision was given dictating when the annual appointment
of the Chairman and Vice Chairman would take place. Traditionally, the
Commission has tied the July 1st appointment time with the reorganization of the
Commission.
In order to clarify the reorganization date for the Commission, they directed
staff to prepare a resolution setting the second meeting in July as the official
reorganization time for the Chairman and Vice Chairman. Adopted as a
resolution, this would represent official Planning Commission policy and could
only be altered by a vote of the majority of the Commissioners.
RECOI~qENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends that the Commission adopt Resolution No. 2255, setting the
second meeting in July as the official time for the election of the Chairman and
Vice Chairman for the Commission.
