Variance 77-8
LOCATION: 1042 Bonita
APPLICANT: L.L. Hendrix
PROPOSAL: To vary from the requirements of the R-3
District to authorize the construction of a
4 unit apartment complex on a 50 foot lot
with "0" side yard set-back on the rear 1/3
of the lot.
ZONING: R-3 (No increase in authorized density requested)
ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS: Request filed for Negative Declaration
BACKGROUND:
Lot 8, Block C of Martins Addition, located at 1042 Bonita,
was originally subdivided approximately in 1927, with lot
dimensions of 50' x 170', with 20' rear alley. The subject
area is zoned R-3, which requires a°minimum building site
area of 7,000 square feet with minimum lot width of 70'.
The zoning criteria was adopted after the subject area was
subdivided.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed variance would authorize the redevelopment of
a property within the intent of the zoning regulations. Other
lots within the area have been developed with mixed residential
uses and various lot line configurations.
The proposal would authorize the construction of a 4-plex unit,
comparable to that which was approved for 130 Pacific and
120 Nisson Road.
Required street improvements on Bonita Street would be Under
the jurisdiction of the County of Orange.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the Planning Agency approve the variance
request, based upon the denial of the right to develop the
property in accordance with the rights of other properties in
the R-3 District by adoption of Resolution No. 1660, substantially

PUBLIC HEARING NO. 3
DATE:
August 1,. 197'7
SUBJECT: Amendment to Use Permit 76-29
LOCATION: 1091 Old Irvine Boulevard
APPLICANT: Tustin Bowling Lanes
PROPOSAL: To authorize the installation of an amusement
machine center within the future bowling facility.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
On November 27, 1976, the Tustin Planning Commission recommended
approval of Use Permit 76-29 for the construction of Tustin
Lanes, a 42 lane bowling facility. The Tustin Redevelopment
Agency also recommended approval of the development by
the adoption of Resolution No. RDA 77-2.
The owners of Tustin Lanes is now requesting authoriZation to
increase the usage of the facility by adding an amusement machine
operation within the building.
A previous City action concerning similar request was approval
of Use Permit 76-28 which authorized the use of a vacant struc-
ture at 14551 Newport Avenue for a Family Amusement Center.
The project was not carried to construction. At the time of
this hearing, the Tustin Police Department voiced concern
over the proposal after their experience with "Funky's
Teenage Odyssey." The Police Department comments have no
concerns regarding the proposal as long as the supervision
of the amusement area is constant.
The Planning staff agrees with the Police comment and suggests
the Use Permit includes as a condition the requirement for
constant supervision.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the Planning Agency approve the
amendment to Use Permit 76-29 by the adoption of Resolution
No. 1659, substantially as drafted.

conditions:
i. The amusement area will be under constant

PUBLIC HEARING NO. 4
DATE: August 1, 1977
SUBJECT: Use Permit 77-17
LOCATION: 1091 Old Irvine Blvd.
APPLICANT: Tustin Lanes
PROPOSAL: Construction of a business identification pole sign
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The owner and operator of the future Tustin Lanes, Mr. Jack G.
Mann, is requesting authorization to construct a pole sign
at the site of the new bowling facilitY.
The plans call for a 98 sq. ft. sign cabinet mounted on a 26 foot
high sign structure. The signing copy is allocated as follows:
"Tustin Lanes" - 28.5 sq. ft.
reader panel - 51.75 sq. ft.
"La Cantina" - 18 sq. ft.
"Lanes Available"
In addition, a 4.4 sq. ft. advertising sign, ,
is attached to the lower portion of the structure.
A sign permit has been issued for a 48 sq. ft. business identifca-
tion wall sign for the front wall area. A request for sign
code exception is also requested to allow a second sign of
approximately 18 sq. ft. to be displayed on the same wall area
to identify "La Cantina". The proposal of two (2) front wall
signs totally 66 sq. ft. is within the provisions of Article VII,
Section 1 of the Sign Code.
The City Engineer commented that the plan as submitted does not
indicate how far the proposed pole sign will sit behind the
street right-of-way line of Ola Irvine Boulevard. In addition,
the plan does not indicate the size of the columns or poles
that will be supporting the proposed sign. Until this data is
supplied, it is difficult to determine what impact this sign
will have with regard to visibility of motorists exiting either
Tustin Lanes driveway or the driveway immediately easterly and
adjacent to Tustin Lanes.
Planning staff believes the size should be reduced. Referring
to the shopping center provisions, the maximum area for a pole
sign in a multi-tenant facility is 50 sq. ft. It is suggested
that a sign closer to this size could be accomplished by reduc-
ing the reader panel, to two (2) lines of copy and removing the
"Lanes Available" sign.
Report ~to the Planning Agency
August 1, 1977
Page 2
Also, the structure would present a cleaner, simpler design
without the simulated bell feature. The overall design and
use of materials does appear to be compatible with the plans
of the bowling facility.
Other pole signs in the area include:
- Tustin Heights Shopping Center
- DK Donuts (illegally erected)
- Monte Vista Realty
RECOmmENDATION:
It is recommended that the Planning Agency approve Use Permit
77-17 with the suggestions of staff by the adoption of Resolution
1662, substantially as drafted.

City of Tustin
Attn: Dr. Fleagle
Dear Dr. Fleagle:
.This communication is in support of the application
for a pole sign to properly identify the new Tustin Lanes
bowling establishment.
As you may recall from my first two visits to your
office in October of 1976; this need to properly identify
the center and to show the events occuring within the fac-
ility is extremely important. Fountain Bowl which was
completed in 1974 has not been able to enjoy the strong
public attendance that has been apparent with its sister
center Regal Lanes in Orange. Both of these centers are
fortunate in having very strong locations with a large
traffic window on two major stree'ts: (Fountain has an
eight foot monument sign, Regal Lanes has a thirty eight
foot pole sign with a reader board.)
As you are well aware Tustin Lanes does not have a
strong viewing position. In order to make its presence
known to tho~e who drive east/west on Irvine I must properly
identify my establishment. A combined pcle sign and reader
board is a critically important combination. We wil'l have
many tournements and special events each month that would
be of noticable interest to the commuting public.
I am sure you realize that considerable expense (over)
two million) has been spent to bring to the city of Tustin
the latest ano best in bowling. Please allow me the oppor-
tunity to inforn~ people as to where I am and what I am
currently offering.

Use Permit 77-18
14244 Newport Avenue
APPLICANT: Atlantic Richfield Co.
PROPOSAL: Authorization for sale of food snacks and beverages
BACKGROUND AND DiscussION:
The Atlantic Richfield Company is requesting authorization
for the conversion of a portion of its Newport Avenue service
station site to a food snacks and beverages retail outlet.
The plan also incorporates a sign program which includes the
following signs:
1 - business identification monument sign (no specific size
indicated) with a 6 sq. ft. pricing sign incorporated
in the structure.
2 - 24 sq. ft."Mini Shop" signs
1 - 9 sq. ft. "ARCO" wall sign
2 - 5.7 sq. ft. "Cigarettes-Soda" signs
1 - 2 sq. ft. "Candy~' sign
The site adjoins a small Shopping center which includes a
liquor/mini market, a tavern, and a fast food restaurant.
Many of the added services which the applicant wishes to
offer are already available in the adjoining center.
The site does not presently meet minimum development standards
and the proposal does not incorporate any site improvements
other than signing and interior work. There are only three
planters along the street frontages of about 645 square feet
containing no tree species. There is no perimeter
landscaping along the interior property lines or along the
walls of the structure.
The plans do not include provisions for customer and employee
parking.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
If the Planning Agency finds that the use is appropriate for
the site it is recommended that Resolution No. 1661 be adopted
with the conditions of landscaping and parking improvements.

focused EIR was submitted covering just the commercial-professional
portion of the site facing Newport. Because of staff concerns
over specific areas of the shopping center's development, a meet-
ing was held with the developer, the consultant preparing the EIR,
and the traffic engineering consultant. The greatest concern of
staff pertained to access to the site, congestion within the devel-
opment, problems associated with service road restrictions, sign-
age, and vehicle-pedestrian conflicts. Concern was also expressed
over the final design of the bank facility, overall design concept,
and potential impact on adjacent properties and other phases of
the development. Corrections were agreed to in most of the areas
outlined above.
DISCUSSION:
An examination of EIR 77-4 for Packer Square shows that there are
three major elements to the overall proposal. They are:
A. Shopping Center (discussed and addressed in detail in EIR
77-3 and staff reports).
B. High Rise Elderly Housing (discussed below).
C. Multi-Family Housing and Site Amenities (discussed below).
·
The concerns of staff relative to the high rise elderly tower's
potential impacts are as follows.
1. .Impact of High Rise Tower
The proposed i0-story tower will represent a definite change in
physical character of the neighborhood. The existence of the
EIR 77-4
August 1, 1977
Page two
tower will mean a real and/or psychological loss of privacy for
a large portion of the surrounding neighborhood. No amount of
architectural treatment can change the fact that a high rise
tower is in conflict with the single story suburban character
of the adjacent neighborhood.
2. Demand on City Services
Servicing the elderly tower will significantly increase the ser-
vice load on the City Fire Department, especially paramedic ser-
vice. Of particular concern is the time factor in servicing
residents of the upper stories of any high rise structure. Strict
adherence to building code requirements for high rise structures
would be necessary and additional contracting for fire services
may be necessary to insure that, in the event of fire, adequate
fire protection would be available. Additional demands for more
services from the Recreation Department would require some expansion
of existing programs. Other aspects of City services have been
adequately addressed in the EIR.
3. Design Concerns
Design features as described in the text of the EIR and as shown
on plot plans concern the staff, particularly the lack of usable
open space and outdoor recreation areas. While the elderly are
not highly active at the suggested ages mentioned (80-82), they do
enjoy being able to sit in parklike settings where the visual stim-
ulus is different from what they encounter indoors. While the EIR
contains a rebuttal to staff's earlier concern for a secondary
service elevator, it is still believed desirable to have a service
elevator for emergencies and other uses not compatible with the
daily routine of the complex.
_ 4. Elderly. Complex and Community Character
While it is agreed that the desirability of a high rise tower in
the City is a subjective matter dependent on personal preferences
-- and tastes, it is the opinion of staff that the existing community
character is such that the interests and desires of the community,
and especially the elderly, would not be best suited by a high rise
-- structure. Staff would contend that iow rise structures would
better reflect the preferences of the elderly, who would rather
live in housing reflecting the current standards of the community.
..... Specific Concerns relative to the proposed multi-family housing
- are as follows-
..... 1. Excessive Density of Apartments--Potential Condomini~m
Development
EIR 77-4
August 1, 1977
Page 'three
The proposal calls for 96 units on 4.6 acres, or 20.7 units per
acre. This is clearly in excess of past City actions which limit
development to no greater than 17 units per acre. Staff would
recommend a density no greater than 17 units per acre 'be authorized
for the apartment house development. Further, staff has discussed
wi.th the developer the possibility of,. at some later time, convert-
ing the units to condominiums. Proposed density would preclude
the developer complying with the required design standards for con-
.dominiums. Condominium design would have to comply with Planned
Development District Regulations as set forth in Ordinance 553.
Those regulations require 50% open space, greater setback
requirements, and other more detailed design criteria.
2. Pedestrian Crossings
Initial plot plans and conceptual drawings do not clearly illus-
trate pedestrian crossings and walks to get residents of the apart-
ments (and elderly complex) from their dwellings to the two adja-
cent shopping centers. Such crossings and walks should be required.
3. Parking Needs
The City Engineer has suggested that past experience would make
it desirable to require a minimum of 2¼ to 2½ parking spaces per
unit. This would insure adequate guest ~arking, which o£ten
doesn't exist when so many units already have the maximum two
car per unit usage, thus leaving little room for guest parking.
4. Bike Trail Concerns
Expressed concern over the lack of provisions for a projected
bike trail have been answered in the EIR by suggesting that one
of the alternate routes would have to be used. Staff contends that
this does not address whether the best interests of the community
are being served, and the issue needs to be resolved. The County
EMA shares this concern in the attached letter.
5. Traffic.Saf.ety
Numerous traffic safety questions were raised by the City Engineer;
however, most, if not all, have been successfully resolved through
the cooperation of the traffic consultant in meetings considering
EIR 77-3 (shopping center portion of project).
EIR 77-4
August 1, 1977
Page four
Identified within the EIR and considered worthy of individual con-
sideration are the following adverse impacts requiring mitigation
and/or overriding-
1. Traffic-pedestrian safety conflicts.
2. Bike trail alignment.
3. Skyline domination of senior citizens complex.
4. Sanitation District capacity ~estrictions (see letter).
5. Traffic circulation impact on Builders Emporium operations.
6. Impact on Fire and rescue capabilities.
7. Proposed density of the apartment complex (20.7 units per acre).
Attached to this report are additional letters and comments
received from the County EMA relative to bike trails and from the
Sanitation District relative to their ability to serve the site.
RECOmmENDED ACTION
It is the staff's belief that, with the exception of the high rise
elderly tower, acceptable mitigating measures can be found for each
of the problems outlined above. Staff would recommend that the
Agency request the developer to submit alternate designs for the
elderly housing portion of the project, with a maximum structure
(or structures) height of 50 feet. It is further recommended that
the Agency allow a maximum of 17 units per acre for the multiple
-family portion of the site. To allow for the resolution of the
issues and problems described above, and to allow the mandatory
response time for public comment, the staff recommends that the
public hearing be continued as an open hearing to August 15, 1977.

PUBLIC HEARING NO. 12
DATE: July 18, 1977
SUBJECT: ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT (EIR 77-3) - A focused EIR
for commercial portion of Packer Square.
APPLICANT: Harry Kassebaum, 3848 Campus Drive, Newport Beach, CA.
PROPOSAL: An EIR related to proposed development of a 40,400 square
feet of retail commercial developments on 4.5 acres.
LOCATION: The easterly side of Newport Avenue, southerly of Irvine Blvd.
BACKGROUND:
An EIR has been prepared for the total development of the 11 acres
of land on the eastern side of Newport Avenue southerly of Irvine
Boulevard and the Tustin Heights Shopping Center. The EIR encompasses
a. development proposal consisting of commercial, professional, resi-
dential, and highrise residential. This action is subject to a
General Plan Amendment and Zone Change related to the residential
portion. A focused EIR has been submitted, based upon the EIR pre-
pared for the total project, which related only to the commercial
section of the proposed Packer Square Development and related to a
Use Permit application for commercial development only. The under-
lying proposal includes a 5,000 sq. ft. drive-thru bank, 5,000 sq. ft.
restaurant, and 24,400 sq. ft. of shops with 6,000 sq. ft. of pro-
fessional office space. Significant long range impacts of the proposed
development relate to the noise and traffic impact upon the potential
development of the remainder of the parcel proposed for residential
units and the impact of traffic circulation upon the street system
within the area.
DISCUSSION':
The City Engineer's memo dated June 7, 1977, made the following
evaluation of the proposal:
1. The proposed pedestrian walkway in the adjacent commercial
development to the north is presently being used for a vehicular
drive-thru cleaners. It appears there may be pedestrian-vehicle
conflict in this area unless the facilities are segregated.
Response: The consultant's response identifies the need and
desirability for the pedestrian walkway and suggests mitigating
measures to minimize hazards such as well-lighted and marked cross-
ways. He states further that a potential for accidents will still
exist, despite the fact that the driveway to be crossed will be a
~.i"-~'- PL'AN NING DEPARTM EN'T .*"
Public Hearing No. 12
July 18, 1977
Page 2
one-way service road only with low traffic volumes. The question
raised by the City Engineer related to pedestrian access through
a drive-thru cleaners driveway has not been addressed by the
consultant.
2. The City Engineer. states that the plot plan shows parking for
the commercial areas along the northerly side of the commercial
buildings (29 stalls). This drive was described as a drive for
service vehicles only, but the elevations in the appendices shows
store fronts with access. The consultant responds that public
entrances of the three buildings which back onto the service drive
will be from the front and not from the service entrance side.
However, deliveries and employees entrance'will be from the rear
of these shops with a total of 32 employee parking spaces proposed
for the area immediately behind the two northern most shop buildings
adjacent to the service road. It is the City Engineer's opinion that
both the elevations and convenience of parking at this site will
foster the use of the service road as an entrance way into the shops
by.the public.
3. The City Engineer raises a question pertaining to the alignment
of the Orange County bike trail along the AT&SF right-of-way. The
consultant responds that it is his understanding that the bike trail
would follow the E1 Modena-Irvine Flood Control Channel since no
provi'sions have been made for a bike trail thru Packer Square. As
of this date we have not received a report from the Orange County
Environmental Management Agency related to the proposed bike trail
alignment.
4. The statement of extending the center median on Newport Avenue
to restrict left egress from the site is not practical. The motorists
would utilize any open area near their intended movement to make a
left turn from Newport Avenue. The only practical way to prohibit
left turn egress is to restrict all cross street movement by con-
structing a raised median. The consultant's response states that
to deny left turn access into the site at the center driveway would
mean that all ingress from Newport Avenue would have to be right-
turn only. In their estimation, this could adversely effect the
economic viability of the retail outlets and could potentially cause
congestion elsewhere.
5. The proposed installation of a stop sign at the northeast corner
of Builder's EmpO~um property in the opinion of the City Engineer,
may not be a solution to the problem that would be created. The
consultant acknowledges that enforcement could be a problem and
suggests that other solutions may be available.
Public Hearing No. 12
July 18, 1977
Page 3
TO Appendix i of the master EIR Traffic Impact Analysis, the City
Engineer has taken exception to the circulation pattern for the
proposed development. Some comments relate to the total development
while others relate solely to the commercial development. The
responses of the consultant's Traffic Engineer to the concerns of
the City Engineer have not been satisfactory.
It's believed that there are distinctive problems related to traffic
circulation both for the commercial development and the total site.
It is further suggested that mitigating measures proposed have not
alleviated the adverse impacts upon traffic circulation. There
has not been an opportunity for the City Engineer and the consultant's
Traffic Engineer to fully discuss the proposed circulation plan and
mitigating measures. Prior to certification of EIR, it is suggested
that these matters should be fully addressed and brought to the attention
of the Planning Agency for resolution.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: It is recommended that the Planning Agency continue
as an open public hearing EIR 77-3 until August 1, 1977, for further
public comment and resolution of conflicts and mitigating measures
related to traffic circulation.

To develop 40,400 square feet of commercial and

erly of TustinHeights Shopping Center.

ENVIRONMENTAL
STATUS'
EIR 77-3 has been submitted for consideration
and certification.
BACKGROUND'
Comments relative to previously consid%red EIR 77-3 are appli-
cable to this proposed project. Concerns relate primarily to
traffic circulation. Concerns of the Community Development
Department related to the proposed commercial development pertain
to the northeasterly property line and drive access. There'is
no physical separation between the two properties and the service
entrance appears to be the most pronounced of all accessways to
the center. It would also be a primary access road to the resi-
dential developments that are programmed for the southeasterly
portion of the site. A negative impact would be created unless
there were preimeter walls or landscaping, or alternatively
incorporating the common service entrances to serve the two
adjoining properties. As such, it would be inappropriate to
have the parking located along the service road, and to the
degree possible this alleyway or service road should be screened
from public view.
The proposed land use is appropriate to the site and would be
compatible with other uses within the vicinity. Staff would
recommend approval of the Use Permit upon modification of the
circulation pattern to the satisfaction of the City Engineer,
and accommodation of the aesthetics of the site as related to
adjoining properties.

Subject: Packers Square Shopping Center, Draft Environmental Impact Report
Dear Sirs:
It is the Primary concern of the County of Orange that project plans for
said project reflect the County's plans for construction of proposed
Bicycle Trail 8B. As currently envisioned, this trail is slated to run
along the Atchison, ToPeka and Santa Fe Railroad easement upon pu'rchase
by the County. Since the proposed route defines the southeastern boun-
dary of the subject project, the need for integration of plans for this
facility seems apparent.
·
Futher information related to the bike trail project can be gained through
consultation of the Draft EIR mailed to you on June 13, 1977, as well as
being currently available at the Tustin Public Library and at our office
at 811 North Broadway, Santa Ana. In the event of further questions, you
may expect prompt and courteous responses by contacting Doug Wood at
834-3686.
Thank you for the opportunity to respond to these proposed plans; our
timely involvement is greatly appreciated.
Very truly yours,
~enn' s t. ~nager

Attention' Mr. Kenneth Fleagle ~~
Director of Community Development
Subject' Draft EIR - Packers Square (77-3, 77-4)
The subject Environmental Impact Report has been reviewed and
has been found to be inadequate with respect to sewage facilities.
Sanitation District No. 7 does not have planned capacity for this
development if the present land use plans change to high density
residential. The project flows from this parcel and the drainage
area at Sanitation District No. 7 was incorporated into its
"Master Plan - Trunk Sewer Facilities", May 1969. The trunk
facilities to serve the District have been constructed based on
the land use plans in existence at that time.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.
