INDUSTRIAL CHAHGE THE ZONE FRO# PLANNED COI~4UNITY INDUSTRIAL TO PLANNED COI~4UNITY INDUSTRIAL/BUSINESS BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION: Zn 1968 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 400 which approved the regulations for the Irvlne Industrial aree in south Tustln. In [979, the City Council adopted Ordinance 8[6 which changed the zone on certain properties in this area to allow retail and business office uses. Attached to this report are copies of both these ordinances and accompanying maps. In 1983, the Paragon Group constructed three (3) two-story structures at 15901, 15941, 1599~ Redhill Avenue and are in the process of leasing them out to prospective tenants. Enclosed is correspondence from the owner regarding the zone change. The property owner is now requesting authorization to change the zone from P.C. Industrial to P.C. Industrial/Business to allow the additional uses, subject to a use permit. This change would be in conformance with the Tustin Area General Plan. RECOIe4ENDATION: Recommend approval of this zone adoption of Resolution No. 2198. change (84-8) to the City Council by the MAC: do corn munity Development Department October 10, 1984 Mr. Donald Lam~ CITY OF TUSTIN Planning Department! 300 Centennial Way Tustin, CA 92680 Re= Warner/Red Hill Business Center - Zone Change Dear Mr. Lamm= In reference to our submission for a zone change at the Warner/Red Hill Business Center, we are attaching this letter to our application to ex~lain our reasoning for requesting such action. Our zone change proposal would be an amendment to our current zoning use. We wish to adopt the same zoning which was. previously approved for other parcels in this immediate area, zoned Planned Community Industrial and rezoned Planned Community Industrial/ Business. Our general reasons for this amendment are two-fold= (1) We wish to utilize the highest and best use for this land, and (2) we must adapt to the marketplace which is rapidly changing from R&D/Industrial to R&D/Office. The most critical aspect of this proposed change is the potential impacts it could have on traffic and noise levels in the area. Our studies of other developments in the area support our belief that no negative imPact~cur. In surveying several industrial/ business parks, we found the Von Karman Center on Von Karman Avenue to provide an excellent example of how our proposed zoning can work. On three no~al working days in September, we performed parking lot checks at the hours of 10=00 a.m. and 2=30 9.m. This center contains heavy office users such as Ultra Systems, Insurance Systems, Inc., AST Research and GTE Sprint. Ultra Systems and Insurance Systems, Inc., both have a four-per-1000- square-foot parking ratio for their 130,000 square feet and 26,000 square feet of space, respectively. They share parking facilities and have a total of 624 spaces between them. Our surveys found an average of 549 cars parked ranging as low as 527 spaces and as Paragon Group 707 Wiishire Boulevarcl Suite 5290 Los Angeles, California 90017-3655 Pallas St. Louis Charlotte Tampa Houston Los Ar%3nl~.~ (213) 488-1396 Mr. Donald Lam~ Page Two October 10, 1984 high as 572 spaces on certain occasions. AST Research has the same parking ratio for their 53,000 square foot building. There we found an average of 182 cars parked of an available 212 spaces ranging,as low as 173 spaces and as high as 193 spaces. GTE Sprint had similar results. In addition, we surveyed other single-standing projects near Red Hill Avenue and MacArthur Boulevard. The First Fund Insurance Building at 17811 Cowan has a three-per-1000 parking ratio for their 15,000 square foot building with an average of 38 cars parked of an available 45 spaces. The Presley Companies Corporate Headquarters at 17911 Cowan also has a three-per-1000 parking ratio for their 18,000 square foot building with an average of 45 cars parked of an available 54 spaces. Note that we have surveyed users which historically have a high ratio of employees per square foot (i.e., insurance companies). In reality, office users need less parking and therefore cause less traffic on the streets surrounding their location. Users such as insurance companies and accountants -- typical office users -- have a high concentration of employees per square foot, but they also have a great deal of Space allocated to file storage, research libraries and conference rooms, thereby lowering the actual number of employees per square foot. In addition, recent leases by R&D tenants have shown an extremely high demand for parking. The number of employees per square foot has increased substantially because of the heavier reliance on computers and automation. We have concluded that there will be no negative effects at Warner/Red Hill if the proposed zoning is approved. Most likely, positive synergies will occur as a result. In addition, we have actively coordinated this planned effort with Gail Mulcahy and Mike Leblanc of the Irvine Company. They have given their full support in backing the decision of the City of Tustin. They feel t_hat because of the challenging marketplace, the rezoning is the most logical and sensible adjustment to make.. We look forward to working with you on this matter. If we can be of any further assistance, please feel free to contact us. Sincerely, Assistant Project Manager RC :m ORDINANCE NO. 400 PLANNED COMMUNITY DISTRICT P.
