TO: WilliAM HUSTON, CITY MANAGER
FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: APPEAL OF A PLANNING COMMISSION DECISION TO AllOW
FIBERCEMENT SIDING
SUMMARY
On March 6, 2007, the City Council appealed the Planning Commission's decision to
allow the use of fibercement siding on a detached two car garage with second story
game room currently under construction on a property improved with an "A"-rated
dwelling in the Cultural Resource Overlay District located at 200 South "A" Street. The
project was originally proposed by the owner and approved by the Zoning Administrator
with redwood siding. The Community Development Director denied the owner's
subsequent request to use fibercement siding instead of redwood siding. The owner
appealed the decision to the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission
overturned the Community Development Director's decision by approving the use of the
fibercement siding. (Owner: Michelle Young)
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Council may take the following actions:
. Take no action; thereby, leaving the Planning Commission decision to stand;
. Deny the use of fibercement siding use on the building and request that staff return
with a City Council resolution reversing the Planning Commission's decision; or,
. Remand the matter back to the Planning Commission for further discussion and
,investigation of alternative siding materials.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impacts are anticipated for any action the City Council wishes to take.
200 South "A" Street
Appeal of Planning Commission Decision
April 3, 2007
BACKGROUND:
The site is located at 200 South "A" Street and is surrounded by a single family residential
neighborhood (Attachment A - Location Map). The property maintains a general plan
designation of low density residential and a zoning district designation of single family
residential (R-1) in the Cultural Resource Overlay district.
The property is improved with a Colonial Revival dwelling constructed in 1907 that is
identified as an "A"-rated structure in the City of Tustin Historical Survey (Attachment B -
Property Survey). Structures listed on the Historical Survey are given ratings of "A"
through "D" with "A" rated structures being the most important in regard to biographical,
historical, or architectural significance. The existing dwelling is described by the Historical
Survey as the finest Colonial Revival home in Tustin based on very few modifications,
original architectural details, quality of materials used, excellent preserved condition, and
association with William Shatto, a carpenter who helped build many Tustin buildings. The
Historical survey states that the structure may be eligible for listing in the National Register
of Historic Places.
On May 9, 2005, the Zoning Administrator approved Conditional Use Permit 04-022 and
Design Review 04-020 for the construction of a 1 ,328 square foot accessory building that
includes a 764 square foot two-car garage below and a 564 square foot second story
consisting of a game room, two walk-in closets, and a bathroom (Attachment C -
Zoning Administrator Action and Project Plans). The approved plans proposed the use
of redwood siding on the garage and game room structure to match the existing
dwelling (Attachment D - Proposed Siding).
On May 10, 2006, a building permit was issued for the project and substantial construction
was underway. In September 2006, the owner requested the use of fibercement siding
instead of the approved redwood siding (Attachment E - Correspondence). In letters
dated September 15, 2006, and January 17, 2007, the Community Development Director
denied the request for the use of fibercement siding and confirmed the previous
decision allowing the use of redwood siding. On January 23, 2007, Ms. Young filed an
appeal of the Director's decision with supplemental synthetic siding product information
(Attachment F - Supplemental synthetic siding product information).
At the February 12, 2007, Planning Commission meeting, the Planning Commission
indicated that they would support the appeal and use of the alternate fibercement siding
and voted unanimously (3-0) to continue the item to the February 26, 2007, meeting so
that staff could present a resolution with findings to reverse the Director's decision and
allow the fibercement siding (Attachment G - Staff Report and proposed resolution).
At the February 26, 2007, Planning Commission meeting, the Planning Commission
voted unanimously (5-0) to approve Resolution No. 4051 reversing the Director's
decision and allowing the fibercement siding on the detached garage structure
(Attachment H - Staff Report, Resolution No. 4051, and Meeting Minutes). On March 6,
2007, the City Council appealed the Planning Commission's decision.
200 South "A" Street
Appeal of Planning Commission Decision
April 3, 2007
DISCUSSION:
The Community Development Director denied the use of the fibercement siding for the
following reasons:
. The Residential Design Guidelines for projects located in the CR District indicate
that new accessory structures should be compatible with the style, quality,
dimension, texture, and color of materials used on an existing historic building to the
greatest extent possible (Attachment J - Excerpts From Residential Design
Guidelines). The section emphasizes the importance of matching the wood siding
used on historic buildings. The existing historic home is improved with redwood
siding and many of Tustin's architecturally significant houses are clad in wood
siding;
. Wood-sided houses help define the historic character of the District;
. The project is conditioned to match the existing home;
. The Design Guidelines require the project to implement character-defining features
such as the home, including narrow clapboard siding;
. The Guidelines specifically provide several examples of non-wood siding that should
be discouraged, including materials that may be similar to fibercement;
. The fibercement board dimensions and style would not maintain the beveled or
rounded edge characteristics or gradation in width typical of the wood siding used on
the residence;
. If fibercement siding were allowed, several properties could be subject to
inconsistent development with wood, fibercement siding or other materials which
could affect the character and may damage the integrity of the District or resources
therein;
At the February 12, 2007, Planning Commission meeting, the Planning Commission
considered the owner's appeal correspondence and reviewed an alternate fibercement
siding material brought to the meeting (Attachment I - Owner's Appeal Correspondence).
The ~Ianning Commission indicated that they would support the appeal and use of the
alternate fibercement siding, due to the unique circumstances of the project, because:
. The fibercement siding is proposed to be used on an ancillary building and does not
need to attempt to incorporate the level of detail and decoration as the existing
historical structure;
. The proposed alternate fibercement material, to the greatest extent possible meets the
spirit and intent of the design review criteria, would be comparable with the style,
quality, dimensions, texture, color, and materials of the existing home;
. The alternate fibercement siding would not be used on an existing structure listed on
the historical survey, would not be associated with an addition to a structure listed on
the historical survey, would be installed on a new detached garage setback 67 feet
from the public right-of-way which would not be distinguishable from wood siding to the
untrained eye; and,
. The architecture of the detached garage has been determined to be complementary of
200 South "A" Street
Appeal of Planning Commission Decision
April 3, 2007
the existing Colonial Revival dwelling on the site as intended in the Design Guidelines
and is compatible with structures in the Cultural Resource District.
The Planning Commission clarified that fibercement siding may not be acceptable for all
structures in the Cultural Resource District and/or properties improved with structures
designated on the Historic Resource Survey.
The City Council may take the following actions:
. Take no action; thereby, leaving the Planning Commission decision to stand;
. Deny the use of fibercement siding use on the building and request that staff return
with a City Council resolution reversing the Planning Commission's decision; or,
. Remand the matter back to the Planning Commission for further discussion and
investigation of alternative siding materials.
Based on the City Council decision, staff may need to return to the council with a formal
resolution.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
If the decision is upheld, the action is statutorily exempt pursuant to section 15270 of the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA does not apply to rejected projects). If the
decision is reversed, the project is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15303 (Class
3 - construction of accessory structures, including their respective building materials).

DESCRIPTION:
A bellcast hipped roof, ringed with carved exposed beam ends and centered with a gabled dormer, caps this two-story Colonial
Revival home. The gabled dormer, with carved barge boards is decorated with slant-cut wooden shingles and a multi-paned
window. The single-storied offset front porch features a shed-style roof with a bellcast pedimented gable over the main entrance.
Slant-cut wooden shingles and a delicate tracery of cutwork accent the gable. Narrow clapboard siding covers the exterior which is
divided between floors by a flared beltcourse and plain frieze. Pairs of round classical columns, resting on solid clapboard-clad
railings, support the Porch roof. Sidelights flank the natural wood front door, accented with a large pane of glass. A plate glass
window with a multi-paned transom above and narrow double-hung windows on each side occupies the area to the north of the
porch. A large double-hung window looks out onto the porch. A pair of multi-paned casement windows, which appear to have
I replaced a pair of double-hung windows were probably added in the 1920's. On the north side is a high horizontal window, a door
in the foundation, and a double-hung window placed half-way between floors. This would indicate the location of the interior stair
landing and basement access. Double-hung windows are used throughout the rest of the house and a slanted bay window
embellishes the fmt floor of the south facade. A single-storied enclosed. porch on the back matches the rest of the house and is
reached by a short stairway sheltered by an added portico supported by chamfered posts and tmned balusters. The high foundation
is now covered with used brick and a used brick planter has been added in the front A hedge of pink: old-fashioned roses and a
large lawn surround the house. This is one of the frnest Colonial Revival homes in Tustin.
SIGNIFICANCE:
William Lynch Shatto, who came to Tustin around 1879, built this house for his second wife, but large enough to provide for
boarders. Shatto was a carpenter and helped to build many Tustin buildings. including the First Advent Christian Church, of which
he was a charter member. Martha Shatto, widow of Joseph Martin, was Shatto's third wife. She lived in the house until 1959.
Because this house is probably the Imest Colonial Revival home in Tustin and is significant for its association with William
Shatto, it appears to be eligible for the National Register.

ZONING ADMINISTRATOR ACTION AND PROJECT PLANS
ZONING ADMINISTRATOR ACTION 05-007
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 04-022 AND DESIGN REVIEW 04-020
The Zoning Administrator of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
I. The Zoning Administrator finds and determines as follows:
A. That a proper application for Conditional Use Permit 04-022 and
Design Review 04-020 was filed by Michele C. Young to construct a
1 ,328 square foot accessory building with a 764 square foot two-car
garage, and a 564 square foot second story including a game
room, two (2) walk-in closets, and a bathroom at 200 S. A Street.
B. The proposed project is consistent with the policies of the General
Plan land use designation "Low Density Residential" which provides
for the development of single-family residences and accessory
structures. 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. In addition, the property is zoned Single-Family Residential
(R-1) in which accessory buildings used as guest rooms, when no
cooking facilities are maintained, are permitted with the approval of a
Conditional Use Permit. Design Review is required for construction
of new structures, which includes review of the site plan and
elevations. The Community Development Director has deferred
consideration of the Design Review application to the Zoning
Administrator for concurrent review with the Cond.itional Use Permit
application.
c. That a public hearing was duly.called, noticed, and held on said
application on May 9,2005, by the Zoning Administrator.
D. That 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, as evidenced by the following findings:
1) The use and design of the proposed accessory structure, as
conditioned, would not be detrimental to surrounding
properties in that the proposed structure will comply with all
applicable development standards of the R-1 zoning district;
and,
2) The use, as conditioned, would not be detrimental to
surrounding residents or properties since the use \,vould be
limited to a garage, laundry room, and guest rooms which
are accessory to a single-family residence and will be used
by the residents in conjunction with the main residence.
The property O"'Jner would not be able to lease or rent the
accessory guest rooms without first complying with Tustin
Zoning Administrator Action 05-007
May 9, 2005
Page 2
City Code Section 9223a(7) for a second single-family
structure, including providing two (2) additional garage spaces.
E. That pursuant to Section 9272(c) of the Tustin City Code, the
Zoning Administrator finds that, as conditioned, the location, size,
architectural features, and general appearance of the proposed
structure will not impair the orderly and harmonious development of
the area, the present or future development therein, or the
occupancy as a whole in that the design of the accessory building
ensures that it will be accessory to the main residence by
appearing to be a garage structure. The first floor would be set
seven (7) feet behind the house, the second story set back an
additional twelve (12) feet, and the overall height would be six (6)
feet lower than the house. The placement of the building is
consistent with the predominant land use pattern in the area of
single-family residences with detached garages. In addition, the
design of the accessory building will be consistent with the features
of the Colonial Revival style architecture of the existing main
residence by matching the materials and colors, roof pitch, wood
siding, and gabled dormers on the second floor with slant-cut
wooden shingles and multi-paned windows. In making such
findings, the Zoning Administrator has considered at least the
following items:
1. Height, bulk, and area of buildings;
2. Setbacks and site planning;
3. Exterior materials and colors;
4. Type and pitch of roofs;
5. Size and spacing of windows, doors, and other openings;
6. Towers, chimneys, roof structures, flagpoles, radio and
television antennae;
7. Location, height, and standards of exterior illumination;
8. Landscaping, parking area design, and traffic circulation;
9. Location and appearance of equipment located outside an
enclosed structure;
10. Location and method of refuse storage;
11. Physical relationship of proposed structures to existing
structures in the neighborhood;
12. Appearance and design relationship of proposed structures to
existing structures and possible future structures in the
neighborhood and public thoroughfares;
~i 3. Proposed signage; and,
14. Development guidelines and criteria as adopted by the City
Council.

II. The Zoning Administrator hereby approves Conditional Use Permit 04-022
and Design Review 04-020 authorizing the construct a 1,328 square foot
accessory building with a 764 square foot two-car garage, and a 564
square foot second story including a game room, two (2) walk-in closets,

RE: REQUEST TO USE FIBER CEMENT SIDING INSTEAD OF REDWOOD SIDING FOR THE
PROPOSED DETACHED TWO (2) CAR GARAGE WITH SECOND STORY GAME ROOM
AT 200 S. "A" STREET, TUSTIN
Dear Mr. McCausland:
We received your request to utilize Fiber Cement siding instead of Redwood siding for the proposed
detached two (2) car garage with second story game room approved by the CitYs Zoning
Administrator through adoption of Zoning Administrator Action 05-007 on May 9, 2005 (Attachment 1).
In approving the project, the Zoning Administrator made a finding (Finding E) which indicates that the
design of the accessory building wilt be consistent with the features of the Colonial Revival style
architecture of the existing main residence by matching the materials and colors, roof pitch, wood
siding, and gabled dormers on the second floor with slant-cut wooden shingles and multi-paned
windows.
Substituting the proposed garage exterior material of Redwood siding with Fiber Cement siding while
the existing home is improved with Redwood siding would contradict with the adopted Zoning
Administrator's findings. In addition, the site is located within the City's Cultural Resources Historic
District which requires new improvements be harmonious in terms of appropriateness of materials,
scale, size, color in relationship with existing structure(s). Therefore, the request to use fiber cement
siding instead of redwood siding for the proposed new detached garage is hereby denied. If you wish
to appeal this decision, you may do so by filing an appeal to the Planning Commission in writing with
the Community Development Department stating the reason for said appeal and accompanied by an
appeal fee (to be reimbursed at the actual cost of processing the appeal) as established by City
Council Resolution 06-85.
If you should have any questions, please call me at 714-573-3115.

Dear Justina and Elizabeth,
Thank you again for meeting with us regarding my new garage construction. As you can see
from the brochures and the attached website, www.certainteed.com. tiber cement siding is very
attractive, used in very high-end homes and is designed to resemble \\iood siding. It is a wood
siding imitation without all the maintenance problems.
I am requesting to use fiber cement siding instead of wood siding because it is a superior product
but retains the look .I want to achieve. It is fire proof and termite proof. It also comes with a
product guarantee from the manufacturer.
Fiber cement siding was developed about 18 years ago and has been increasingly becoming the
product of choice by bllilders throughout the US because of its durability and look. Several
companies market a version of the product. I plan to use lap siding from CcrtainTccd.. a prenlier
US manufacture of building products.
Contrary to wood that needs nearly yearly repainting touch ups and care (dry rot and termite
damage), fiber cement has a projected life of25 years'before repainting is necessary. Termites
will never be an issue. As Lisa Yargeau, Territory Manager for CertainTeed lnentioned, it is
replacing \vood siding throughout the US and it has been permitted in many historical areas of
Los Angeles County with building guidelines similar to Tustin.
I certainly appreciate the desire to maintain the look of Old Town Tustin's historical district. I
painstakingly have spent many hours in designing my garage to follow the intentions of the City.
I have lived here for 26 years because I like the environment9 therefore I certainly would do
nothing to deviate from the look of the neighborhood. I wish some of my neigh,bors would do
half of what r am doing!
From a distance oftive feet.. no one could tell the difference between wood siding and fiber
cement siding. Since the garage is 50 feet away from the house and 75 feet back from the street,
the differences even further diminish. It certainly maintains the integrity of the Old Town
look-it just does not require the necessary upkeep.
COlne walk with me through my Ileighborhood and observe the wood stnlctures and see the
condition of the wood siding. Many homes are in disrepair, termite damaged and in desperate
need of painting. My garage will never have these issues with fiber cement siding. It will
still look new after several years.
I urge the City to recognize the benefits of these new products and how they can be llsed to
enhance and maint~ill the look of Old town Tustin. Perhaps you can encourage nlore
homeowners in the area to use them.
I encourage you to visit my home and view my property. When you see how my garage and
hOlne sit on the property, you can get a realistic perspective of the negligible visual differences
of tIle siding choices will really be.
[ realize I am requesting a variance to my current bui~ding permit in place. I hope you can now
see why I am requesting this variance.
/\s the homeowner \\lho will need to maintain this 110me over the next several years" I want to
have so best possible prodllct for mainte11ance and beauty.
Thank you,

RE: SECOND REQUEST TO USE FIBER CEMENT SIDING INSTEAD OF
REDWOOD SIDING FOR THE PROPOSED DETACHED TWO (2) CAR
GARAGE WITH SECOND STORY GAME ROOM AT 200 S. "An STREET,
TUSTIN
Dear Ms. Young:
On September 15, 2006, the City sent you a letter informing you that your request to
use fiber cement siding instead of redwood 'siding for the newly constructed detached
garage was denied. During the week of November 20, 2006, you met with me and
Justina Willkom to discuss the matter and indicated that you will submit material
brochures to justify the request. On December 5, 2006, you, Drew McCausland,
Contractor, and Lisa Yargeau, Territory Manager for CertainTeed (manufacturer of fiber
cement siding), met with Justina Willkom and presented the City with manufacturer
brochures, pictures of other projects throughout California, and sample material boards.
On December 6, 2006, we received your letter which describes and explains your
intention further and substantiating your request to use fiber cement instead of redwood
siding for the new detached garage and game room. .
The newly constructed detached two (2) car garage with second story game room was
approved by the City's Zoning Administrator through adoption of Zoning Administrator
Action 05-007 on May 9, 2005 (Attachment 1). In approving the project, the Zoning
Administrator made a finding (Finding E) which indicates that the design of the
accessory building should be consistent with the features of the Colonial Revival style
architecture of the existing main residence by matching the materials and colors, roof
pitch, wood siding, and gabled dormers on the second floor with slant-cut wooden
shingles and multi-paned windows. .
We have reviewed the submitted letter, brochures, and material boards. As we
indicated in the previous letter, substituting the proposed garage exterior material of
Redwood siding with Fiber Cement siding while the existing home is improved with
Redwood siding would contradict the adopted Zoning Administrator's findings. In
addition, the site is located within the City's Cultural Resources Historic District which
requires new improvements be harmonious in terms of appropriateness of materials,
scale, size, and color in relationship with existing structure(s). Therefore, this second
request to use fiber cement siding instead of redwood siding for the proposed new

detached garage is hereby declined. If you wish to appeal this decision, you may do so
by filing an appeal to the Planning Commission in writing with the Community
Development Department stating the reason for said appeal and accompanied by an
appeal fee (to be reimbursed at the actual cost of processing the appeal) as established
by City Council Resolution 06-85.
If you should have any questions, please call Justina WiUkom at 714-573-3115.
Sincerely,
I

APPLICANT'S APPEAL JUSTIFICATION
January 20, 2007
To: Planni11g Conlmission, City of Tustin
FroIn; Michele Y Oll11g, Homeowner, 200 South A Street Tustin, CA 92780
RE: ~~PPEAL to the denial to my request for substituting redwood siding with fiber cement
siding on my newly'constructed detached garage at 200 South A Street.
REQUEST to use an alternate (Tllstin approved) exterior siding material for my new detached
garage.
Backe:round:
1. The Construction Documents for my garage were approved in May 2005. Construction
began in April 2006.
2. While visitillg New Orleans in June 2006, I discovered that the reconstruction of the wood
strnctllres (residential and commercial) in the city's downtown historic area was being rebuilt
with fiber cement lap siding versus wood siding. Unless I was within 3 feet of the buildings
and carefully examined it, the siding appeared identical to wood lap siding.
3. I confirmed that New Orleans Historical Redevelopment Committee favored the fiber cenl~nt
siding because of it durability, lifetime guarantee, low maintenance costs and fire resistance .
feature. Furthermore.. it did not deter from the City's desire to maintain the hist.orical"'wood
siding" appearance.
4. Through research, I found fiber cement siding has also been approved for use in several
llistorical districts throughout the US including Laguna Beach, California.
5. I decided fiber cement siding was the best choice for the siding on my new garage. Its low
Inaintenance costs, and fire and termite free composition was significant to me as a
homeowner. AJso the product is environmentally friendly, as it does not require lumber.
6. McCausland Construction (my contractor) submitted a request to use fiber celnent siding
instead of redwood in September 2006 per my request.
7. On September 15, 2006 my request was denied, citing the Zoning AdmiI1istrator Action
prepared for my permit.
8. In November and December I resubmitted my request via meetings.. mail, documentation
and sanlples. My request was refused again for the same reason: '''Not confomling to the
submitted plans." I was told I needed to file a formal appeal if I wanted the Planning
COlTIlnission to reconsider my request.
January 20, 2007 .

9. This letter constitutes my formal appeal to modify my siding choice on my 5uilding plans. I
have enclosed a check payable to Tustin for $175.00 (price quoted to me by Justina).
Discussion:
I understand the City's desire to maintain a Cultural Resources Historic District. I respect the
idea that improvements need to be harmonious in appearance in appropriateness of materials,
scale size, and col~r in relationship with my existing structure. My request conforms to these
criteria.
Over the years, the construction industry has developed new products that provide a substantial
improvement over 19th century building materials. Despite their material changes, they retain the
harmonious design to the historic period.
Vinyl windows, fiberglass asphalt shingles, and fireproof, metal garage doors are examples of
exterior materials that are permitted in Tustin's Cultural Resource Historic District. They are all
products that were not materials in the early 20th Century. They are approved products because
they do not conflict with the cultural intent of the District and are better quality.
. Fiber cenlent siding is a relatively new product (18 years old), and its popularity is growing
rapidly due to its durability and inherent benefits (termite free, fire resistant, environnlentally
friendly). It is an approved product for new construction in Tustin.
Fire resistance and termite free features are extremelv important to California's
communities and their homeowners! Environment friendly is an added bonus.
Fiber cement is not an inexpensive option. It is priced similarly to wood siding. Its long-
term benefits are worth the initial cost.
My new garage is detached from my house and sits on my property 25 feet away from the house.
[t is set back 50 feet from street. No one can distinguish the difference between the siding
materials on the two buildings. I am NOT modifying my home's siding-just my new garage.
There are already homes in -my neighborhood that have used fiber cement products in remodeling
projects. I am not the first!
I invite the Planning Commission members to visually see a sample of fiber cement siding on my
garage and compare it to my current home's siding. You will see how similar it is to my home's
siding and how it dt1eS not deter from the cultllrallook of my property.
Conclusion and Request:
Permit me to modify my building plans to substitute fiber cement for redwood siding.

RECOMMENDA TION
That the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 4051 upholding the Community
Development Director's decision disallowing the use of fibercement siding on a
detached garage structure approved by Zoning Administrator Action 05-007.
BACKGROUND
The site is located at 200 South "An Street and is surrounded by a single family residential
neighborhood (Attachment A - Location Map). The property maintains a general plan
designation of low density residential and a zoning district designation of single family
residential (R-1) in the Cultural Resource Overlay district.
The property is improved with a Colonial Revival dwelling constructed in 1907 that is
identified as an "A"-rated structure in the City of Tustin Historical Survey (Attachment B -
Property Survey). Structures listed on the Historical Survey are given ratings of "Au
through UO" with "A" rated structures being the most important in regard to biographical.
historical. or architectural significance. The existing dwelling is described by the Historical
Survey as the finest Colonial Revival home in Tustin based on very few modifications,
original architectural details, quality of materials used. excellent preserved condition, and
association with William Shatto, a carpenter who helped build many Tustin buildings. The
Historical survey states that the structure may be eligible for listing in the National Register
of Historic Places.
On May 9, 2005, the Zoning Administrator approved Conditional Use Permit 04-022 and
Design Review 04-020 for the construction of a 1,328 square foot accessory building that
includes a 764 square foot two-car garage below and a 564 square foot second story
consisting of a game room, two walk-in closets. and a bathroom (Attachment C -
Zoning Administrator Action and Project Plans). In approving the garage and game
room project, the Zoning Administrator considered the proposed new structure, the
existing dwelling, the site with respect to its location being located in the CR district, the
residential design guidelines for structures located in the CR district. and the
significance of the structure as described in the Tustin Historical S~rvey. The approved
plans proposed the use of redwood siding on the garage and game room structure to
match the existing dwelling.
On May 10, 2006, a building permit was issued for the project and substantial construction
was underway. In September 2006, Drew McCausland, the general contractor, submitted
a request on behalf of Ms. Young to use CertainTeed WeatherBoards™ Fibercement
Siding instead of the approved redwood siding on the proposed detached garage/game
room (Attachment D). In a letter dated September 15, 2006, (Attachment E -
Correspondence) staff denied the request since the use of fiber cement is not consistent
with the intent of the CR District findings and the residential design guidelines (See
Discussion section of the report for further information).
Planning Commission Report
Appeal of Community Development Director Decision
February 12, 2007
Page 3
to review the fibercement siding in detail. Following the meeting Ms. Young provided a
letter (Attachment E - Correspondence) requesting a variance to allow the use of
Certainteed WeatherBoards ™ Fibercement Siding. In response, on January 17, 2007,
the Community Development Director denied the second request for the use of
fibercement siding and confirmed the previous decision allowing the use of redwood
siding on the garage and game room structure (Attachment E - Correspondence). On
January 23, 2007, Ms. Young filed an appeal of the Director's decision. Meanwhile, no
progress has been made in completing the detached garage since October 2006.
DISCUSSION
The project involves the construction of a 1 ,328 square foot accessory building that
includes a 764 square foot two-car garage below and a 564 square foot second story
consisting of a game room, two walk-in closets, and a bathroom. The detached garage
building is located behind the main structure at a height of 20 feet, which is 10 feet shorter
than the main structure. The structure has a 5 foot side yard setback from the south
property line, a 67 foot front yard setback, and an approximately 43 foot rear yard setback.
The structure also is 24"feet from the main residence.
The project is located in the Cultural Resources Overlay District. The existing home on the
site is designated as an "A" rated structure by the Tustin Historical Survey Report because
of its significance individually and to the District as a whole. When approving the project,
the Zoning Administrator specifically conditioned the project to ensure that the detached
garage exterior materials would match, protect, and preserve the existing historic
residence and the District as a whole (Condition 2.9 of Zoning Administrator Action 05-
007). Approval of ZA 05-007 was based partially on the applicant's plans indicating that
redwood siding would be used to match that used on the exterior of the residence.
In addition, prior to issuance of a building permit as required by the Zoning Code, the
project was granted a Certificate of Appropriateness which confirmed that the proposed
garage and game room structure complies with the intent of the CR District and follows
the Residential Design Guidelines for the Cultural Resources District.
Staff has thoroughly reviewed Ms. Young's appeal including the submitted brochures
and material boards for Certainteed WeatherBoards™ Fibercement Siding. While
fibercement may be a product of acceptable quality, staff does not believe that the
fibercement provided would be an appropriate substitute for th'e redwood siding
approved for the project in that:
. The existing historic home is improved with redwood siding. The Residential
Design Guidelines for projects located in the CR District indicate that new
accessory structures should be compatible with the style, quality, dimension,
texture, and color of materials used on an existing historic building to the greatest
extent possible. The Guidelines also indicate many of Tustin's architecturally
significant houses are clad in wood siding, and that the appearance of wood-
sided houses helps define the historic character of the District. In making the

texture, and color of materials used on an existing historic building to th'e greatest
extent possible. The Guidelines also indicate many of Tustin's architecturally
significant houses are clad in wood siding, and that the appearance of wood-
sided houses helps define the historic character of the District. In making the
decision to approve the project, the Zoning Administrator carefully considered the
applicant's plans proposing the use of redwood siding and specifically
conditioned the project to match the existing home.
· The proposed substitute product would contradict the adopted Zoning
Administrator's findings; and,
· Tustin City Code (TCe) Section 9252f requires the issuance of a Certificate of
Appropriateness for construction of improvements in the CR district and TCe
9252h requires findings to be made for construction of improvements in the CR
district as follows:
(a) The proposed work must conform to the Municipal Code and design
standards which may be established from time to time by the Historic
Resource Committee.
The City has established Residential Design Guidelines for the Cultural
Resource District to "preserve, protect and enhance the existing historic
character and culturally significant structures within the Cultural
Resources District." The existing dwelling has a Colonial Revival
architectural style that exhibits typical character-defining features including
narrow clapboard siding which is identified in the Design Guidelines
(Attachment F - Excerpt from Residential Design Guidelines). Staff does
not feel that fibercement siding would be a superior character-defining
material to the wood siding used on the dwelling. The Residential Design
Guidelines specifically provide several examples of non-wood siding that
should be discouraged, including materials that may be similar to
fibercement. The Guidelines specifically identify wood siding as an
example of an appropriate feature. In addition, the "Additions and New
Accessory Buildings" section of the Guidelines state that the exterior
appearance of new accessory buildings should be compatible with the
style, quality, dimensions, and texture of materials on the existing historic
house. The section specifically emphasizes the importance of matching
the wood siding used on historic buildings. Staff believes that the
fibercement board dimensions and style would not maintain the beveled or
rounded edge characteristics or gradation in width typical of the wood
siding used on the residence.
(b) The proposed work must not adversely affect the character of the District
or any designated cultural resources within the District.
Planning Commission Report
Appeal of Community Development Director Decision
February 12.2007
Page 5
Staff believes that the approval of fibercement siding for the project could
set a precedent requiring the City to approve it for use on other properties,
including properties designated on the City's Historical Survey. Again, the
Design Guidelines emphasize that the appearance of wood-sided houses
helps define the historical character of the District (Attachment F). If
fibercement siding were allowed, several properties could be subject to
inconsistent development with wood, fibercement siding or other materials
which could affect the character of the District or resources therein.
(c) The proposed work must be harmonious with existing surroundings. The
extent of harmony must be evaluated in terms of the appropriateness of
the materials, scale, size, height, placement, and use of any new building
or structure in relationship to existing buildings and structures and the
surrounding setting.
The Design Guidelines specifically state that "the exterior appearance of
additions and new accessory buildings should be compatible with the
style. quality. dimension, texture and color of materials on the existing
house" (Attachment F). Any departure from the use of wood siding as
used on the existing on-site dwelling and on survey-listed dwellings
throughout the District may damage the integrity of the District.
Based on the above findings. staff recomm~nds that that the Planning Commission adopt
Resolution No. 4051 upholding the Community Director's Decision to disallow the
replacement of redwood siding with fibercement siding for the project.
Since filing the appeal, Ms. Young has indicated to staff that she may present alternate
materials to the Planning Commission at the appeal hearing. She also included
publications for James Hardie siding products with her appeal application (Attachment G -
Publications Submitted with Appeal). Since staff has not had the opportunity to review or
investigate the quality or appropriateness of the James Hardie siding or alternate
materials not yet submitted, it is recommended that the Planning Commission deny the
current appeal and remand any alternate material proposals received at the hearing to
the Community Development Department for review and action.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF TUSTIN, REVERSING THE COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR'S DECISION AND
ALLOWING THE USE OF ALTERNATE FIBERCEMENT
SIDING ON THE DETACHED ACCESSORY STRUCTURE
LOCATED AT 200 SOUTH "A" STREET
The Planning Commission does hereby resolve as follows:
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A. That a proper request was submitted by Michelle Young, requesting to
appeal the Community Development Director's decisjon to disallow the
use of fibercement siding on a detached two (2) car garage with second
story game room that is currently under construction on a Single Family
Residential (R-1) zoned property improved with an A-Rated dwelling in the
Cuftural Resource (CR) Overlay District located at 200 South HA" Street;
B. That the project was originally submitted with plans showing redwood
siding matching the siding used on the historic residence and the plans
were approved by Zoning Administrator Action 05-007;
C. That in May 2006, construction began and in September 2006. Drew
McCausland, the general contractor, submitted a request on behalf of Ms.
Young to use CertainTeed WeatherBoards™ Fibercement Siding instead
of the approved redwood siding on the proposed detached garage/game
room. In a letter dated September 15, 2006, staff denied the request since
the use of fibercement is not consistent with the intent of the CR District
findings and the residential design guidelines;
D. That in November 2006, Ms. Young met with the Community Development
Director to discuss the fibercement board request further and on December
5, 2006, at the request of Ms. Young, staff met with her, the project
contractor, and the territory manager for Certainteed to review the
fibercement siding in detail. Following the meeting Ms. Young provided a
Jetter requesting a variance to allow the use of Certainteed
WeatherBoards™ Fibercement Siding. In response, on January 17,2007,
the Community Development Director denied the second request for the
use of fibercement siding and confirmed the previous decision allowing the
use of redwood siding on the garage and game room structure;
E. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and he"rd for said appeal
application on February 12, 2007, by the Planning Commission;
F. At the February 12, 2007 J Planning Commission meeting, the Planning
Commission considered the subject request and an alternate fibercement
siding material brought to the meeting by the project proponent. The
Resolution No. 4051
Appeal of Community Development Director Decision
Page 2
Planning Commission indicated that they would support the appeal and
use of the alternate fibercement siding because: the material is proposed
to be used on an ancillary building and not an existing historical structure;
the detached garage is set back 67 feet from the street; and, the proposed
alternate fibercement material. to the greatest extent possible, would be
comparable with the style, quality, dimensions, texture, color. and
materials of the existing home. The Planning Commission, however.
clarified that fibercement siding may not be acceptable for all structures in
the Cultural Resource District and/or properties improved with structures
designated on the Historic Resource Survey. Consequently, the Planning
Commission determined that, due to the unique circumstances of the
project, the proposed alternate fibercementsiding would be an appropriate
substitute for wood siding on the accessory structure approved by
Conditional Use Permit 04-022 and Design Review 04-020 in that
1. The proposed project conforms to the Tustin City Code and design
standards which may be established from time to time by the
Historic Resource Committee in that the project meets all setbackJ
height. and lot coverage requirements for the zoning district and
meets the spirit and intent of the design review criteria of the zoning
code and Residential Design Guidelines. Specifically, the detached
garage implements character-defining features of the Colonial
Revival architecture of the main dwelling as intended in the Design
Guidelines, and the detached garage is an accessory structure
ancillary to the main structure and does not need to attempt to
incorporate the level of detail and decoration as the house.
Therefore, the aJternate fibercement siding on the new accessory
structure does not need to have the same level of detail as wood
siding on the existing dwelling which exhibits beveled or rounded
edge characteristics or gradation in width.
In addition, the proposed detached garage is setback 67 feet from
the front yard setback, maintains approximately 43 feet from the rear
property line, and is detached a distance of 24 feet from the main
residence. Therefore, the use of painted alternate fibercement siding
on the accessory structure would not be distinguishable from wood
siding as viewed from the public right-at-way and would be
appropriate.
2. The proposed work would not adversely affect the character of the
District or designated cultural resources within the District in that
the accessory structure has been evaluated by the Planning
Commission for design consistency with the existing Colonial
Revival dwelling on the property and with other historically
desig~ated properties in the surrounding cultural resource district
Since the alternate fibercement siding would not be used on an
existing structure listed on the historical survey, would not be
associated with an addition to a structure listed on the historical

survey, would only going to be installed on a new detached garage
significantly setback from the public right-af-way which would not
be distinguishable from wood siding to the untrained eye, no
adverse impact to the character of the Cultural Resource District is
anticipated.
3. The proposed work would be harmonious with the existing
surroundings. The project has been evaluated in terms of its
appropriateness of materials, scale, size, height, placement, and
use of the new building or structure in relationship to existing
buildings and structures and the surrounding setting in that the
architecture of the detached garage has been determined to be
complementary of the existing Colonial Revival dwelling on the site
and is compatible with structures in the Cultural Resource District.
The use of alternate fibercement siding on a detached garage
setback 24 feet away from the main structure and over 50 feet from
the public right-at-way will appear to be representative of
appropriate wood siding used on properties identified in the historic
survey.
G. This project is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15303 (class 3) of
the California Code of Regulations (Guidelines for the California
Environmental Quality Act).
II. The Planning Commission hereby reverses the. Community Director's Decision
and allows the use of alternate fibercement siding on a detached accessory
structure located at 200 South "Au Street.

decision and allowing the use of alternate fibercement siding on a detached garage
structure approved by Zoning Administrator Action 05-007 (Attachment 1 ).
DISCUSSION
At the February 12, 2007, Planning Commission meeting, the Planning Commission
considered the subject request and an alternate fibercement siding material brought to
the meeting by the project proponent. The Planning Commission indicated that they
would support the appeal and use of the alternate fibercement siding because: the
material is 'proposed to be used on an ancillary building and not on the existing historical
structure; the detached garage is set back 67 feet from the street; and, the proposed
alternate fibercement material, to the greatest extent possible, would be comparable
with the style, quality, dimensions, texture, color, and materials of the existing home.
The Planning Commission, however, clarified that fibercement siding may not be
acceptable for all structures in the Cultural Resource District and/or properties improved
with structures designated on the Historic Resource Survey. Consequently, the
Planning Commission determined that, due to the unique circumstances of the project,
the proposed alternate fibercement siding would be an appropriate substitute for wood
siding on the accessory structure approved by Conditional Use Permit 04-022 and
Design Review 04-020 in that:
1. The proposed project conforms to the Tustin City Code and design standards
which may be established from time to time by the Historic Resource Committee
in that the project meets all setback, height, and lot coverage requirements for
the zoning district and meets the spirit and intent of the design review criteria of
the zoning code and Residential Design Guidelines. Specifically, the detached
garage implements character-defining features of the Colonial Revival
architecture of the main dwelling as intended in the Design Guidelines, and the
detached garage is an accessory structure ancillary to the main structure and
does not need to attempt to incorporate the level of detail and decoration as the
house. Therefore, the alternate fibercement siding on the new accessory
structure does not need to have the same level of detail as wood siding on the
existing dwelling which exhibits beveled or rounded edge characteristics or
gradation in width.
In addition, the proposed detached garage is setback 67 feet from the front yard
setback, maintains approximately 43 feet from the rear property line, and is
detached a distance of 24 feet from the main residence. Therefore, the use of
painted alternate fibercement siding on the accessory structure would not be
distinguishable from wood siding as viewed from the public right-of-way and would
be appropriate.
2. The proposed work would not adversely affect the character of the District or
designated cultural resources within the District in that the accessory structure
has been evaluated by the Planning Commission for design consistency with the
existing Colonial Revival dwelling on the property and with other historically

designated properties in the surrounding cultural resource district. Since the
alternate fibercement siding would not be used on an existing structure listed on
the historical survey, would not be associated with an addition to a structure
listed on the historical survey, would only going to be installed on a new
detached garage significantly setback from the public right-at-way which would
not be distinguishable from wood siding to the untrained eye, no adverse impact
to the character of the Cultural Resource District is anticipated.
3. The proposed work would be harmonious with the existing surroundings. The
Planning Commission has evaluated the project in terms of its appropriateness of
materials, scale, size, height, placement, and use of the new building or structure
in relationship to existing buildings and structures and the surrounding setting in
that the architecture of the detached garage has been determined to be
complementary of the existing Colonial Revival dwelling on the site and is
compatible with structures in the Cultural Resource District. The use of alternate
fibercement siding on a detached garage setback 24 feet away from the main
structure and over 50 feet fram the public right-at-way will appear to be
representative of appropriate wood siding used on properties identified in the
historic survey.

RESOLUTION NO. 4051
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF TUSTIN, REVERSING THE COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR'S DECISION AND
ALLOWING THE USE OF ALTERNATE FIBERCEMENT
SIDING ON THE DETACHED ACCESSORY STRUCTURE
LOCATED AT 200 SOUTH "An STREET
The Planning Commission does hereby resolve as follows:
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A. That a proper request was submitted by Michelle Young, requesting to
appeal the Community Development Director's decision to disallow the
use of fibercement siding on a detached two (2) car garage with second
story game room that is currently under construction on a Single Family
Residential (R-1) zoned property improved with an A-Rated dwelling in the
Cultural Resource (CR) Overlay District located at 200 South "An Street;
B. That the project was origina1ly submitted with plans showing redwood
siding matching the siding used on the historic residence and the plans
were approved by Zoning Administrator Action 05-007;
c. That in May 2006~ construction began and in September 2006, Drew
McCausland, the general contractor, submitted a request on behalf of Ms.
Young to use CertainTeed WeatherSoards™ Fibercement Siding instead
of the approved redwood siding on the proposed detached garage/game
room. In a letter dated September 15, 2006, staff denied the request since
the use of fibercement is not consistent with the intent of the CR District
findings and the residential design guidelines;
D. That in November 2006, Ms. Young met with the Community Development
Director to discuss the fibercement board request further and on December
5, 2006, at the request of Ms. Young~ staff met with her, the project
contractor, and the territory manager for Certainteed to review the
fibercement siding in detail. Following the meeting Ms. Young provided a
letter requesting a variance to allow the use of Certainteed
WeatherBoards ™ Fibercement Siding. I n response, on January 17, 2007,
the Community Development Director denied the second request for the
use of fibercement siding and confirmed the previous decision allowing the
use of redwood siding on the garage and game room structure;
E. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for said appeal
application on February 12, 2007, by the Planning Commission;
F. At the February 12, 2007, Planning Commission meeting, the Planning
Commission considered the subject request and an alternate fibercement
siding material brought to the meeting by the project proponent. The
Resolution No. 4051
Appeal of Community Deve~opment Director Decision
Page 2
Planning Commission indicated that they would support the appeal and
use of the alternate fibercement siding because: the material is proposed
to be used on an ancillary building and not an existing historical structure;
the detached garage is set back 67 feet from the street; and, the proposed
alternate fibercement material, to the greatest extent possible, would be
comparable with the style, quality, dimensions, texture, color, and
materials of the existing home. The Planning Commission, however,
clarified that fibercement siding may not be acceptable for all structures in
the Cultural Resource District and/or properties improved with structures
designated on the Historic Resource Survey. Consequently, the Planning
Commission determined that, due to the unique circumstances of the
project, the proposed alternate fibercement siding would be an appropriate
substitute for wood siding on the accessory structure approved by
Conditional Use Permit 04-022 and Design Review 04-020 in that:
1.
The proposed project conforms to the Tustin City Code and design
standards which may be established from time to time by the
Historic Resource Committee in that the project meets all setback,
height, and lot coverage requirements for the zoning district and
meets the spirit and intent of the design review criteria of the zoning
code and Residential Design Guidelines. Specifically, the detached
garage implements character-defining features of the Colonial
Revival architecture of the main dwelling as intended in the Design
Guidelines, and the detached garage is an accessory structure
ancillary to the main structure and does not need to attempt to
incorporate the level of detail and decoration as the house.
Therefore, the alternate fibercement siding on the new accessory
structure does not need to have the same level of detail as wood
siding on the existing dwelling which exhibits beveled or rounded
edge characteristics or gradation in width.
In addition, the proposed detached garage is setback 67 feet from
the front yard setback, maintains approximately 43 feet from the rear
property line, and is detached a distance of 24 feet from the main
residence. Therefore, the use of painted alternate fibercement siding
on the accessory structure would not be distinguishable from wood
siding as viewed from the publi~ right-at-way and would be
appropriate.
2. The proposed work would not adversely affect the character of the
District or designated cultural resources within the District in that
the accessory structure has been evaluated by the Planning
Commission for design consistency with the existing Colonial
Revival dwelling on the property and with other historically
designated properties in the surrounding cultural resource district.
Since the alternate fibercement siding would not be used on an
existing structure listed on the historical survey, would not be
associated with an addition to a structure listed on the historical
ResoJution No. 4051

survey, would only going to be installed on a new detached garage
significantly setback from the public right-at-way which would not
be distinguishable from wood siding to the untrained eye, no
adverse impact to the character of the Cultural Resource District is
anticipated.
3. The proposed work would be harmonious with the existing'
surroundings. The project has been evaluated in terms of its
appropriateness of materials, scale, size, height, placement, and
use of the new building or structure in relationship to existing
buildings and structures and the surrounding setting in that the
architecture of the detached garage has been determined to be
complementary of the existing Colonial Revival dwelling on the site
and is compatible with structures in the Cultural Resource District.
The use of alternate fibercement siding on a detached garage
setback 24 feet away from the main structure and over 50 feet from
the public right-af-way will appear to be representative of
appropriate wood siding used on properties identified in the historic
survey.
G. This project is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15303 (class 3) of
the California Code of Regulations (Guidelines for the California
Environmental Quality Act).
II. The Planning Commission hereby reverses the Community Director's Decision
and allows the use of alternate fibercement siding on a detached accessory
structure located at 200 South "A" Street.

RECOMMENDATION:
Pursuant to the Planning Commission's direction at the
February 12, 2007, meeting, staff has included Resolution
No. 4051 to reverse the Community Development Director's
decision disallowing the use of fibercement siding on a
detached garage structure approved by Zoning Administrator
Action 05-007.
The Public Hearing opened.
Presented the staff report.
Asked for a closer look at the fibercement sample.
Suggested that the only noticeable difference is the lack of beveling
on the fibercement.
Stated that one of the primary differences is the rounded edge;
there is also a gradation on the redwood siding where the wood is a
little thinner on one end than the other.
Asked if the sample was the second or the' first that she provided.
Answered that it was the second sample.
,---
~
!
i
Stated she would have preferred the sample with paint on it had
been provided.
Indicated the sample provided was fine.
Asked for clarification whether or not the color scheme was the
same.
Answered in the affirmative.
Commented that his observation of the process and outcome of this
appeal was a good learning experience for him; the appellant and
staff are to be commended.
The Public Hearing closed.
Stated that, since two of the Commissioners were absent from the
last meeting, it might not be appropriate for them to participate in a
decision on this item.
Indicated that he had reviewed the minutes and spoken to the
applicant and felt well informed as a result.
['
Minutes - Planning Commission February 26, 2007 - Page 2
Lee
Confirmed that he had also read the minutes. spoken with the
applicant, and visited the property.
Floyd
Thanked the City Attorney for raising the question.
Nielsen
Indicated that he had a discussion with Ms. Young today, drove by
the site over the weekend, and had a conversation with a neighbor
who was not in favor of the project.
Retterer
Stated that, if both Commissioners felt properly informed, it would
be acceptable for them to participate in the decision.
Nielsen
Noted that after looking at the material, reading the detailed
minutes, and talking to the two individuals, both for an against, his
feeling was that the issue came down to where the line should be
drawn regarding the Guidelines in the Overlay District; since the
garage structure is not the primary structure or on the Historical
Survey, it would seem to be a judgment call as to how the
standards are applied; this will be an ancillary structure that
maintains the spirit of the Overlay District, is setback 67 feet from
the street, and 24 feet from the original structure, the difference will
not be noticeable and therefore an exception should be allowed.
Suggested that it would be a good idea for the Planning
Commission to review the Cultural Resources Overlay District,
perhaps in a workshop, including the rules and regulations that are
in effect for the residential homeowners in that District either by
legal obligation or by voluntary participation.
Lee
Stated he had a telephone conversation with the appellant and also
drove by the property; complimented Ms. Young for keeping the
property in such good condition; and, added his support for the use
of the fibercement which blends well with the original structure.
Koza k
Indicated that he supports the action; thanked staff for bringing
back the alternative resolution; stated the minutes fairly represent
the discussion; and, added that the intent of the Guidelines is being
met.
Agreed that arranging for further study of the Overlay District by the
Planning Commission should occur; however, it will be necessary
to first understand the rules and regulations of the Overlay District
within the context of the Design Guidelines and the City's Zoning
Code and also the work plan of the Historical Resources
Commission, the Fiscal Year 2007-08 Budget, and the proposed
realignment of committees and commiss.ions. With those facts in
mind, he would suggest to his fellow Commissioners that the
Commission request staff to report back with the topical items that
would need to be considered in making a decision regarding an
update to provide a better understanding of what would be involved
Minutes - Planning Commission February 26,2007 - Page 3

in the review and also to help prepare the Commissioners for such
a decision.
Indicated this result is a good example of staff and government
working together to reach a good solution; and, complimented Ms.
Young on her persistence, perseverance. and the fine job she did in
pursuing this action; this is one of the prettiest homes in Old Town,
and this addition being 67 feet back will enhance the area.
Agreed that the appellant has done a fine job on the original
structure and that it is one of the nicest homes that Tustin is
fortunate to have in Old Town; the Guidelines were created when
Commissioner Puckett was on the City Councilor Planning
Commission more than ten years ago; at that time such products
were not available; the Guidelines need to be revised to determine
what will be allowed in the future and how to avoid opening the
floodgates for other projects; it is important that Tustin change with
the times and consider the use of new products in the Overlay
District; a Design Guidelines workshop as soon as possible would
be appropriate.
It was moved by Puckett, seconded by Lee, to adopt Resolution
No. 4051. Motion carried 5-0.
Noted that this approval is an appealable item; the appeal period
ends one week from today unless a member of the City Council
appeals the item; in that event, the appeal period would end a week
after the Council's March 6th meeting.
REGULAR BUSINESS
STAFF CONCERNS
REPORT OF ACTIONS TAKEN AT THE FEBRUARY 20. 2007,
CITY COUNCIL MEETING.
Stated the Assistant Director would comment regarding Hangar 29.
Indicated that the City Council asked staff to look at possible
opportunities for minimizing impacts on the City's resources
speCifically relating to City Boards, Commissions, and Committees.
City staff researched the issue and made a recommendation to the
City Council regarding the Parks & Recreation Commission, the
Planning Commission, Historic Resource Commission, and the
Tustin Community Foundation.
Staff recommended that the Parks & Recreation Commission- would
serve as a liaison with oversight and/or coordination with various
groups within the community, such as the Senior Advisory Board,
the Youth & Adult Sports Facilities Association, Tustin Pride, the
Minutes - Planning Commission February 26, 2007 - Page 4
Tustin Community Foundation, and Special Events Committees.
The Commission would also be renamed the Community Services
Commission.
The Planning Commission would accept the responsibilities of the
Historic Resource Committee.
The Tustin Community Foundation would accept the responsibilities
of the Community Development In-House Citizens' Participation
Committee. The Tustin Community Foundation would make a
recommendation related to the Public Service Category Projects for
the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) dollars which
are allocated by the City to various community groups.
The Historic Resource Committee has a work program that is
examined annually, which the Planning Commission may now be
doing. The Planning Commission may want to look at what the
work program would be.
The City Council recommended the initiation of an ordinance and
proceedings that would include the Planning Commission, the City
Council, or the Director; there is a process that has to be gone
through; public hearings would be held aJJowing individuals to speak
before the Commission and appropriate recommendations made;
the City Council requested that the Planning Commission initiate an
ordinance that would consolidate that function; staff will be bringing
that ordinance to the Commission in March.
Nielsen Asked if the ordinance will include a recommendation to the
Council.
Director Answered in the affirmative; and, added that an ordinance is
required because these changes are part of the Zoning Code and
an amendment will be required; if it were only in the Tustin City
Code it would not necessarily come before the Planning
Commission.
Nielsen Suggested this seems a conflict of interest and might be better
handled at the City Council level.
Director Responded that this is a procedural issue required by law and must
come to the Planning Commission first.
Assistant Director Stated the former MCAS-Tustin was closed in 1999; because it was
a Navy disposal of property action and a community reuse planning
effort, the environmental document that was prepared included a
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and a California
Environment Quality Act (CEQA); that the EIS/EIR identified a
worst case scenario which included the potential that the hangars
could not be saved; there are two National Registered blimp
Minutes - Planning Commission February 26, 2007 - Page 5
hangars at the Base; the environmental documents considered the
possibility that those hangars could not be saved; the Navy was
obligated as part of that effort to identify potential mitigation for the
loss of those hangars; the Navy had to negotiate with the State
Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and the Advisory Council on
Historic Preservation, which is the Federal equivalent to the SHPO;
negotiations also included the County of Orange because the
northerly hangar is promised to the County as part of an urban
regional park; the City of Tustin participated as the potential owner
of the southerly hangar; the outcome of those negotiations was an
agreement that laid out the strategy to market both hangars; the
County was to market the northerly hangar and the City the
southerly hangar.
~ At the last City Council meeting, a staff report was brought to the
Council that reported the marketing effort for the southerly hangar.
Four expressions of interest were submitted to the City. Fallowing
the guidelines that were included in the Navy's agreement with
SHPO and the Advisory Council, the marketing effort was intended
to identify whether or not the firms that submitted proposals had the
financial resources to rehabilitate the hangar and place a business
in the hangar that would be a viable reuse. The businesses had to
be able to pay for infrastructure, pay for seismic retrofitting, pay for
fire code upgrades, building code upgrades, etc. It has been
reported that the Navy's own analysis of the hangar required
improvements that ranged between $13 and $26 million just to
bring it up to code.
The conclusion reached in the City Council staff report found that
none of the four proposals was economically viable, and a
recommendation was brought to the City Council to reject all four;
the Council concurred with staffs recommendation; the Council
also authorized the City Manager to enter into an agreement with
the Tustin Legacy Partners to lease the hangar and also to begin
the effort needed to comply with the Memorandum of Agreement
concerning the mitigation that must accomplished.
Even though the Council rejected the four proposals, the Council
also indicated the desire that at least one of the hangars would be
preserved and every effort made to preserve one hangar if
possible; the County of Orange has moved forward with one of the
proposals that was made to the County for the northerly hangar and
is in negotiation on a potential economically viable reuse; nothing
will happen immediately to the southerly hangar; it is still
undergoing remediation by the Navy and still owned by the Navy;
the City is leasing the hangar from the Navy, and it will probably r"-
take five years of remediation before the property can be conveyed
by deed to the City and subsequently to the Tustin Legacy
Community Partners.

Kozak
Puckett
Offered his prayers and condolences go to the Egan family and
suggested that the meeting be adjourned in Mr. Egan's memory.
Added his apologies for missing the last Planning Commission
meeting.
Stated that the rapid changes in technology and the ability to hide
cell towers in ways that make them almost impossible to notice
would suggest that making a suggestion to allow for revisions to the
Residential Design Guidelines to allow for new products and
innovative designs may be the wave of the future.
Expressed his condolences to the Egan family and agreed that the
meeting should be adjourned in Mr. Egan's memory.
Thanked staff for this evening's presentations.
Indicated his thanks and appreciation to Ms. Young for the work
she has done to maintain the historic structure, beautify the
property, and work to build the new structure in keeping with the
spirit and appearance of the Overlay District.
Thanked staff for working through the issue with the applicant and
the Commission.
Stated he looks forward to the proposed workshop regarding
possible revisions to the Design Guidelines.
Thanked staff for their reports on Council actions.
Noted that he, too, was happy to see Chipotte open, particularly
due to the improvement that has been brought to that comer.
Offered his sympathies to the Egan family for their terrible loss.
Noted that he is looking forward to moving the Planning
Commission meetings to Tuesday.
Indicated that he also attended the ribbon-cutting at Roderick's;
when he moved to Tustin in 1975, that was a Chuck's Steakhouse;
this is a very nice restaurant on Red Hill just south of the 1-5
freeway in the Stater Bros. shopping center; the executive chef is
from PJ's Abbey.
Stated that he was one of the founding members of the Tustin
Community Foundation in 1994 which floundered until an Executjve
Director could be found; that Director left and things have not been
going as well; however, once a new Executive Director is found,
perhaps within the next month, things will be on track; there is
Board with about 15 new members and community leaders
Minutes - Planning Commission February 26, 2007 - Page 8
committed to getting the Foundation back to making a difference in
Tustin.
Asked if there would be any way to organize a tour of one of the
hangars~
Assistant Director
Answered that the chances are not good, but he could perhaps put
Commissioner Puckett in touch with the right people~
Puckett
Indicated he would like to go.
Assistant Director
Suggested that Commissioner Puckett give him a call.
Floyd
Reminded everyone that the Chipotle ribbon-cutting takes place
tomorrow at 5:00 p.m.
Agreed that, per Commissioner Lee's remarks, progress requires
change and the City needs to keep up.
Shared in the other Commissioners' condolences to the Egan
family; the Tustin Police Department is one of the finest in the
