A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
TUSTIN, APPROVING A SlX (6) MONTH EXTENSION OF CONDITIONAL
USE PERMIT 01-025 AND DESIGN REVIEW 01-031 TO AUTHORIZE
THE CONSTRUCTION OF A 14,500 SQUARE FOOT CHURCH FACILITY
WHICH INCLUDES A 3,900 SQUARE FOOT SANCTUARY, SUNDAY
SCHOOL/BIBLE STUDY CLASSROOMS, OFFICES, AND RELATED
SITE IMPROVEMENTS ON THE PROPERTY IDENTIFIED AS LOT 7 OF
TRACT 12870, LOCATED ON THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF TUSTIN
RANCH ROAD AND RAWLINGS WAY. THE DATE OF EXPIRATION OF
THE PROJECT APPROVAL SHALL BE MARCH 1, 2004.
The Planning Commission of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
That a proper request to extend Conditional Use Permit 01-025 and Design
Review 01-031 was filed by The Church at Tustin Ranch, which approved
construction of a 14,500 square foot church facility which includes a
sanctuary, classrooms, offices, and related site improvements on the
property identified as Lot 7 of Tract 12870, located on the northeast corner
of Tustin Ranch Road and Rawlings Way.
That the church use is conditionally permitted pursuant to Section 3.6.2 of
the East Tustin Specific Plan.
That the proposed use is consistent with the General Plan land use
designation "Planned Community Residential" which provides for public
and institutional facilities such as churches. In addition, the project has
been reviewed for consistency with the Air Quality Sub-element of the City
of Tustin General Plan and has been determined to be consistent with the
Air Quality Sub-element.
That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held on said application
on October 8, 2001, by the Planning Commission.
That on July 17, 2003, the applicant submitted a request to amend
Condition 1.3 of Planning Commission Resolution No. 3806 to extend the
expiration of approvals of Conditional Use Permit 01-025 and Design
Review 01-031.
That the extension of the project expiration date by six (6) months to March
1, 2004, will not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, or
general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of
the proposed use, nor be injurious or detrimental to the property and

improvement on the neighborhood of the subject property, or to the general
welfare of the City of Tustin with the additional condition of approval related
to hours of operation, water quality, and storm water discharges.
That the establishment, maintenance, and operation of the use applied for
will not, under the circumstances of this case, be detrimental to the health,
safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the persons residing or
working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, nor be injurious or
detrimental to the property and improvements in the neighborhood of the
subject property, or to the general welfare of the City of Tustin, as
evidenced by the following findings:
1)
The proposed church use is compatible with the surrounding uses
in that the sanctuary, classrooms, and offices support the church
use which is conditionally permitted within the "Community Facility"
designation of the East Tustin Specific Plan.
2)
Traffic within the surrounding area will not be significantly impacted
by the proposed church use since the peak hours for the church use
will occur on Sundays and weeknights and will not conflict with the
traffic generated from the adjacent elementary school. The proposed
church office use that will be in operation during the elementary
school hours will not impact the Level of Service on Rawlings Way
or Tustin Ranch Road.
3)
As conditioned, the use will not have a negative effect on the
surrounding property owners or impact the availability of off-street
parking in that the required parking is satisfied by the required 241
off-street parking spaces.
4)
As conditioned, the use of 50 compact spaces as required parking
will not have a negative effect on the surrounding property owners or
impact the use of the off-street parking spaces.
5)
As conditioned, the proposed church use is not anticipated to result
in any noise or traffic impacts. Restricting the hours of operation of
the facility from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. will ensure that the use will
not disrupt nearby residences during quiet nighttime and early
morning hours. In addition, restricting the hours of operation for the
sanctuary and classrooms between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. on
weekdays will ensure that there is no traffic congestion on Rawlings
Way or Tustin Ranch Road in the vicinity of the project related to the
church use due to conflicts with the start time of the adjacent public
school on Rawlings Way.

8)
As conditioned, the design of the proposed building is compatible
with the style of the surrounding residential neighborhoods and the
mass is consistent with other community buildings within the East
Tustin Specific Plan area. The proposed facility will not be a
detriment to the public health, safety, welfare, or aesthetics of the
community.
9)
As conditioned, the proposed lighting will not produce excessive light
or glare or have a negative impact on the adjacent properties and will
not be a detriment to the public health, safety, welfare, or aesthetics
of the community.
The proposed vegetation and screen walls will provide a buffer
between the adjacent residential properties, school site, and public
right-of-way reducing any visual impacts of the site and ensuring that
the proposed facility will not be a detriment to the public, health,
safety, welfare, or aesthetics of the community.
The proposed hours of operation are appropriate for the area. The
proposed uses do not include using the facility for any type of 24-
hour function that might generate excessive noise and traffic during
late nights and early mornings.
Pursuant to Section 9272 of the Tustin Municipal Code, the Planning
Commission finds that the location, size, architectural features, and general
appearance of Design Review 01-031, as conditioned, will not impair the
orderly and harmonious development of the area, the present or future
development therein, or the occupancy as a whole. In making such
findings, the Commission has considered at least the following items:
1. Height, bulk and area of buildings.
2. Setbacks and site planning.
4.
5.
6.
Exterior materials and colors.
Type and pitch of roofs.
Size and spacing of windows, doors, and other openings.
Towers, chimneys, roof structures, flagpoles, radio and television
antennae.
Landscaping, parking area design, and traffic circulation.

That the project has been reviewed for compliance with the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990, and it has been determined that dedications of
right-of-way to accommodate a four (4) foot wide sidewalk behind the drive
apron are necessary for compliance with the requirements of the ADA.
A Final Negative Declaration has been adopted for this project in
accordance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA).
The Planning Commission hereby approves Conditional Use Permit 01-025 and
Design Review 01-031 authorizing the construction of a 14,500 square foot church
facility which includes a sanctuary, offices, Sunday school/Bible study classrooms,
and related site improvements on the property identified as Lot 7 of Tract 12870,
