Report to the
Planning Commission
OCTOBER 10, 1983
SUI~ECT: Pre-Zone 83-1
Use Permit 83-20
APPLICANT: Richard Pierce
LOCATION:
REQUEST:
Holt Avenue at Warren Avenue - 14452, 14472, 14492 Holt Avenue
Authorization to construct eighteen (18) townhomes
BACKGROUND
The subject site is the first three lots south of Warren Avenue, bounded by Holt
Avenue on the west and the Flood Control Channel on the east. The current
la,duse of each lot is a single-family residence.
The Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) recently approved annexation of
the site to the City of Tustin. All of the property owners agreed to the
annexation and it was processed through LAFCO by their representative, Richard
Pierce.
At the September 26, 1983 meeting of the Planning Commission, General Plan
Amendment 83-2 was approved, recommending a change of the land use designation
to Residential Multiple-Family. This change will allow the applicant to apply
for a zone change and prepare a use permit in conformance with an approved
specific plan.
The subject site is covered under Specific Plan No. 6, approved by the City
Council in 1981.
DISCUSSION
From public input and in-house review, staff has identified three issues
regarding the proposed project: traffic generation, Warren Avenue exit.and land
use density.
A. Traffic Generation
Since the proposed project and the project to the south (under construction)
are connected by a common circulation sytem, the impacts of both projects are
covered.
Community Development Department
Pre-Zone 83-1, Use Perm~''~ 83-20
O~tober lO, 1983
Page 2
The. traffic generated from the development in this area is estimated by using
Orange County trip generation for multiple residential use (8 trips/dwelling
unit). The ADT is the commonly used abbreviation for Average Daily Traffic.
This is the total vehicular count for both directions on any street for a
24-hour period. The breakdown for both projects is estimated at:
1. ten-unit project: 80 (ADT)
2. proposed eighteen units: 144 (ADT)
The total for both projects would be 224 (ADT).
These 224 (ADT) will be divided between a proposed Warren Avenue exit and a
Holt Avenue exit. Holt Avenue is a secondary arterial with a 1982 {ADT) of
8,050. Warren Avenue is a local collector and traffic counts are not usually
done on local streets. It is difficult at best to estimate the distribution
of these trips since this depends on ease of turning, location of job,
location of shopping, etc.
The Engineering Department has reviewed these developments and does not
anticipate that this traffic generated will have an adverse affect on Warren
Avenue.
B. Warren Avenue Exit
Specific Plan No. 6 identifies two exits from the project area onto Holt
Avenue and one onto Warren Avenue. The basis was to limit access points onto
Holt Avenue, a secondary arterial, provide an easy through access for
emergency vehicles such as fire, and to provide an independent access point
at Warren in the event Holt Avenue is closed for an emergency.
It is possible to redesign the proposed plan to exit onto Holt Avenue instead
of Warren, placing three exit points on Holt and none on Warren. It would be
undesirable though to locate the exit on Holt due to its proximity to Warren
Avenue to the northeast and Theodora Drive to the southeast. Additionally,
the independent access point of Warren would be eliminated and easy through
access for emergency vehicles would be reduced.
Staff is recommending that the Warren Avenue exit and the overall circulation
for Specific Plan No. 6 remain as originally proposed.
C. Land Use Density
Below is a breakdown and analysis of land use density and density for the
proposed project.
Eighteen units, R-3 (2820) 15.5 du/ac. This is the applicant's
proposal. This proposal meets all the minimum requirements of Specific
Plan No. 6, with the exception of minimum land area per dwelling unit
(minimum 3,000 square feet per unit). This proposal is not close to the
required minimum, has a spa area designed in such a way to reduce
privacy and quiet to adjoining units, and presents no opportunity to
preserve mature trees. It is staff's contention that this plan does not
meet the intent of the approved specific plan.
Pre-Zone No. 83-[, Use Permit 83-20
October [0, [983
Page 3
t
Seventeen Untts, R3 (2985) [4.6 du/ac. Thfs proposal is closer to the
minimum land area (3000), but still fifteen square feet per unit short
(2985). This proposal will allow the applicant to redesign the spa are
to afford more privacy to adjoining units and possibly preserve .mature
trees. It does not meet the minimum land area for the Specific Plan,
but does present a housing opportunity.
Sixteen Units R3 (3172) 13.73 du/ac. This proposal is in conformance
with all aspects of Specific Plan No. 6. It expands on all the
opportunities detailed in the seventeen unit proposal, except for the
housing opportunity.
Findings
A. Zone Change
1. The proposed zone change to Multiple-Family (R-3) would be in
conformance with the Land Use element of the Tustin Area General Plan.
A zoning designation of R-3 (3000) would be consistent with the minimum
land requirement of Specific Plan No. 6.
A zone change to Multiple-Family (R-3) would allow the applicant to
prepare a site plan that will conform with Specific Plan No. 6.
4. Adoption of a zoning designation less than 3,000 square feet per unit
will require an amendment to the Specific Plan.
B. Conditional Use Permit
The proposed plan can be designed to be in conformance with Specific
P1 an No. 6.
Development standards have been applied which conform to the Specific
Plan and provide 'for a uniform development consistent with adjoining
developments.
3. A Negative Declaration has been approved for the Specific Plan, as shown
by enclosed Resolution No. 81-51.
Due to its secondary arterial status, limiting access points onto Holt
Avenue would be in the interest of traffic safety.
5. Placing three access points onto Holt Avenue is possible, but
undesirable from a traffic safety aspect.
6. The Engineering Department does not anticipate an adverse affect to
._ Warren Avenue from the traffic generated by these developments.

APPLICANT:
LOCATION:
REQUEST:
Tentative Tract No. 12018
Richard Pierce
Southeast Corner of Holt Avenue and Warren Avenue
Approval of Tentative Tract Map 12018 to authorize subdivision of a
residential townhome project
DISCUSSION
This subdivision proposal has been applied for in conjunction with Zone Change
Application No. 83-1 and Use Permit 83-20 for authority to develop an 18 unit
residential townhome project at the above location. Since the number of lots to
be authorized and the approved townhome layout is dependent on these two
actions, it would not be appropriate to address the corrections of the map until
the zoning permit procedures are decided.
RECOI~IENDATION
It is recommended that the public hearing be opened to receive testimony and
then continue the hearing to the October 24, 1984 meeting.

OCTOBER 10, 1983
SUBJECT:
APPLICANT:
LOCATION:
Commission
Site and Architectural Review
O'Donnell, Brigham & Partners/Southern
1100 Valencia
NEW BUSINESS NO. 1
BACKGROUND
Planning staff has received a preliminary review application for the
redevelopment of the Fesco site between Valencia Avenue and Bell Avenue. The
property is in the Industrial (M) District and Section g242c(c)(2) of the
regulations require Planning Commission approval of the parking and location
layout. The proposal is presented to Commission for this purpose.
DISCUSSION
The site is presently occupied by the Fesco industrial plant and storage
facility. The proposal calls for demolition of approximately 160,000 square
feet of existing plant area (Building A). To be added to this structure will be
146,000 square feet of floor area and a new structure (Building B) of 107,004
square feet off the Bell Avenue frontage.
The project is a speculative venture with no specific user(s) in mind. The
developer does, however, intend to market it to research and development
companies and the anticipated interior use breakdown is as follows:
· Office, Research & Development - Building A
· Light Industrial/warehousing - Building A
· Office, Research & Development - Building B
· Light Industrial/warehousing - Building B
66,000 square feet
80,000 square feet
75,000 square feet
32,000 square feet
Included with the plan submittal is a preliminary planting plan for the
Commission's review. Staff foresees no problems with the plant list. The
parking lot tree (Cupania anacardioides) is a very clean species and should not
pose any problems for vehicles parked under them.
Of staff concern is the limited number (2) of trash enclosure locations· For
projects of this size, it would be desirable to provide more area for temporary
refuse storage. Also, the easterly drive on Valencia is in conflict with an
existing drainage structure and railroad spur. The drive should be relocated
westerly to avoid costly conflicts with the railroad spur and drainage facility.

a. That additional refuse enclosures shall be provided to staff's

c. That the easterly drive onto Valencia be redesigned to alleviate
potential conflicts with the railroad spur and drainage structure.

STAFF CONCERNS NO. 3
OCTOBER 10, 19~3
SUBJECT: Determination of Use - Garages in the Single-Family District
BACKGROUND
The Community Development Department has received an inquiry regarding the
construction of a six (6) vehicle garage on an R-1 zoned property with a single-
family residence. Because of the unusual nature of the request and the
possibility of use violations, staff is requesting a determination from the
Planning Commission as authorized in Section 9270 of the Zoning Code.
DISCUSSION
The R-1 District requires a minim~n of a two (2) car garage for each
single-family home. No maximum size is indicated. Accessory buildings are
authorized and only limited in size to 30% coverage of the rear lot area.
Accessory building is defined in the Building Code as:
"A subordinate building including shelters for pools, the use of which is
incidental to that of the main building on the same lot and/or building
site."
Garage is defined as:
"...a detached, accessory building, or a portion of a main building on the
same lot as a dwelling, used primarily for the housing of vehicles of the
occupant of the dwelling, having a roof, and enclosed on at least three (3)
sides, with the fourth side being a lockable door, with not less than 10' x
20' clear and unobstructed inside dimensions, and which shall be permanently
maintained as a parking accommodation."
Staff has been informed that the use of the proposed garage is for the storage
of an antique car collection owned by the buyer of the property. Currently, the
vehicles are being stored in an industrial building. The preliminary site plan
which staff has reviewed, would satisfy the coverage and setback requirements of
the district.
The questions which staff wishes to raise is if the storage of this number of
private vehicles is an appropriate use in the R-1 District. There is no limit
specified for private vehicles in the R-1 district, only restrictions as to
where they may be stored. Staff is concerned about the potential for abuse of
the structure's use for repair of vehicles other than those of the owner. On

the positive side, such a structure would keep the owner from storing the
vehicles in the open or on the street if he decided to no longer use the
industrial storage facility.
The Planning Commission may make one of the following findings:
a. The construction and use of a garage for the storage of a private vehicle
collection is not an appropriate use in the Single-family Residential
District and is therefore not allowed under the Zoning Code.
b. The construction and use of a garage for the storage of a private vehicle
collection is authorized by the Zoning Code under accessory building and
garage provisions of the R-1 District and should be allowed.
c. The construction and use of a garage for the storage of a private vehicle
collection is an appropriate use and should be allowed subject to conditions
of a use permit.
