CHAIRMAN RECORDING SECRETARY 5/22/78:dpj -4- TO THE PLA NNING COM MISS ION PUBLIC HEARING NO. 1 DATE: June 5, 1978 SUBJECT: Use Permit 78-10 LOCAT I ON: 13872 Red Hill Avenue APPLICANT: Mobil Oil Corporation PROPOSAL: The addition of a snack shop to be located within an existing gasoline service station BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION This hearing was scheduled for the Planning Agency Meeting on May 15, 1978. At that time staff requested a continuance to this meeting so as to give the City Attorney time to study certain non-conforming rights of the property. The City Attorney has determined that the recognized non-conforming rights of the operation relate only to the right to maintain the uses existing as of the annexation date, but there is no right to expand any use withou~ complying with all requirements in the same manner as any other similar uses. As a 'result of this interpretation, staff reviewed this proposal in a similar fashion to other like proposals which have come before the Agency. The application has been reviewed by various departments with the following comments received: Engineering The following items should be conditions of approval of the use permit: Applicant shall replace all damaged or broken curb, gutter, sidewalk or driveway aprons adjacent to the property on Red Hill Avenue and Laguna Road. Areas to be determined by field inspection by the City Inspector. Annexation of the subject parcel to the Tustin Lighting District. Proof of submission of such annexation papers to the County should be provided the City prior to final acceptance of the buirding modification. 3. Installation of marbelite street lights and underground conduit as required by the City Engineer. 4. Installation of street trees at 40' on center per the City's master plan of street trees along the frontages of Laguna Road and Red Hill Avenue. Se The plot plan indicates that two lights encroach within the public right-of- way on Laguna Road and Red Hill Avenue. These lights should be so modified to eliminate any encroactu~ent within the public right-of-way. ~ 6. Red Hill Avenue is classified as a major arterial highway consisting of a ~120' right-of-way width~The existing right-of-way is presently 100' of width. ~% Either one of the following should be required: a, dedication of a 10' wide parcel adjacent to Red Hill Avenue and the appropriate corner cut-off at the curb return at Laguna/Red Hill. b. execution of an irrevocable offer of dedication for land as described above. Planning Inspections of the site during business hours revealed outside repair and storage of vehicles and outside storage and advertising display of products and materials (tires). It appears that the operation as a service station already exceeds the capability of the existing structure to house such operations. 2. Services which the applicant wishes to provide are already available in the adjoining shopping center. The amount of additional sales and resultant sales tax offered as justification by the applicant would be very slight. MOre than likely, the sales of food items will simply shift from the shopping center to the service station with no appreciable gain in the total amount. 3. If the use is permitted, a trash enclosure should be provide~. 4. The site exceeds the provisions of the sign ordinance in the following areas: a. There are two pole signs on the site. One of the signs should be removed. (9493a.b) b. The smaller pole sign revolves. It should be locked into one position. (9444e) Various movable signs are located around the site. The pricing sign is approximately 20 square feet. Supplemental advertising signing should be limited to 10 square feet as provided in the sign code. (9481e) d. The proposal is requesting 3 front wall signs: "Mobil Service" (existing) 14.67 sq. ft. "brademark"' (existing) 12.56 sq. ft. "Snack Shop" (new) 12.00 sq. ft. ee The sign code authorizes one (1) foot w~ll sign not to exceed 64 sq. ft. The City Council may authorize one (1) extra ID sign under provisions of the !'exception clause". A request for three (3) signs should be presented with a variance request. Additional landscaped planters should be provided. Planting requirements for this site as provided for in the development guidelines. 19 - 15 gal. trees 2 - 24" box trees -2- RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that Use Permit No. 78-10 be denied for the following reasons: ae The use has apparently outgrown the facility and resulting in unacceptable outside use and storage on the site and that the addition of the snack shop will just add'to the intensity of use a~d to the problems. The services which the snack shop will offer are already provided for in the adjoining shopping center and therefore the additional services are not needed to serve the public in this area. Resolution No. 1756 denying the application has been drafted for your consideration. If on the other hand the .Planning Agency believes the use should be permitted, it is recommended they direct staff to prepare an approving resolution for the next regularly scheduled meeting which will include the staff recommendations COntained in the report as conditions of approval.

PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Planning Agency of the City of Tustin, California, held on the 5th day of June, 1978. CHAIRMAN RECORDING SECRETARY dpj: 5/26/78 TO THE PLANNING COMMI$S iON PUBLIC HEARING NO. 2 DATE: J%lne 5, 1978 SUBJECT: Variance 78-4 LOCATION: 18331 Irvine Boulevard (at Plaza Drive) APPLICANT: George Metsovas PROPOSAL: Request for authorization to vary with the setback requirements of Tustin Plaza Development Standards. BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION On January 7, 1974, the Tustin City Council approved the Tustin Plaza development Standards for Specific Plan No. 4 by the adoption of Ordinance No. 606. A provision of the standards was that a 10' building setback be maintained from interior driveways. The plan as submitted, provides 5' setback from an existing driveway along the east property line. The application as reviewed by the various city departments, with the following comments received: Engineering The most southerly driveway on Plaza Drive as shown will be limited to right turn ingress and egress only due to the median island existing within the street. The driveway including any part of the X-section should not encroach within any part of the curb return radius. The developer of this lot will be eligible for reimbursement for an amount equivalent the 5 foot wide sidewalk adjacent to Plaza Drive frontage of Lot No. 1 at the rate of $0.95 per square foot. The developer however, will be recuired to construct the total width (10') sidewalk adjacent to Plaza Drive. Planning Due to the character of the development as mandated by the Specific Plan, staff believes the complex should be developed to professional standards, regardless of use, therefore the side yard setback on the interior property line should not be less than five (5) f~et. The eleven (11) foot setback along Plaza Drive would be consistent with other professional projects. Staff has serious concerns over the architectural elevations. It is suggested that the staff be directed to work with the developer to ensure that'the elevations be improved to avoid any negative impact views from the neighboring developments and that consistent design characteristics be maintained. Report to Planning Agency Page Two June 5, 1978 The lack of a rear loading area is also of concern. If the rear parking spaces were occupied, delivery vehicles would then have to stop and be unloaded from the 25' common drive aisle. Based upon preliminary submittals, this drive aisle will be the only means of ingress and egress from the development to the north, also it is a secondary route from the Beverly Hill Savings development. The developer has stated, however, the he intends to provide office space only. The loading problem will not exist. 4. The parking requirements for an office project of this size is 25 spaces. The proposal satisfies minimum requirements. 5. Landscaping requirements in addition to turf along the street frontage planters are: 6 - 24" box trees 25 - 15 gal. trees 6. Signing for the center is limited to professional standards: 1 - 15 sq. ft. 'building sign 1 - 6 sq. ft. ID sign per tenant, (wall). The wall signs proposed are too large per professional office standards. RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended that the Planning Agency approve Variance 78-4 by the adoption of Resolution No. 1754 substantially as drafted. Respectfully submitted, Assistant Planner AW: dpj ¢ r follows: RESOLUTION NO. 1754 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING AGENCY OF THE CITY OF TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA, GRANTING A VARIANCE ON APPLICATION NO. 78-4 TO AUTHORIZE A FIVE (5) FOOT SIDE YARD SETBACK IN LIEU OF THE REQUIRED TEN (I0) FOOT SETBACK FOR LOT NO. 1 OF TRACT NO. 8475.

Variance application No. 78-3 was granted for a property in the same development to authorize a ten (10) foot setback in lieu of the required twenty (20) feet. That the granting of a variance as herein provided will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations upon other ~roperties in the vicinity and district in which the subject property is situated. eo That the granting of the variance as herein provided will not be contrary to the intent of the Zoning Ordinance or the public safety, health and welfare, and said variance should be granted.

CHAIRMAN RECORDING SECRETARY dpj: 5/30/78 DATE: SUBJECT: LOCATION: APPLICANT: PROPOSAL: TO THE PLANNING COMMISS ION PUBLIC HEARING NO. 3 June 5, 1978 Use Permit 78-13 14222-14232 Red Hill Avenue Santa Ana First Federal Savings Request authorization to construct a drive-thru teller window BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION Santa Ana Federal Savings is applying for use permit approval to expand its current offices at the northeast corner of Red Hill Avenue and Mitchell Street. Included in this expansion is the operation of a drive-thru teller window. General Plan Amendment 78-1 and Zone Change 78-2 for the subject property were approved by the Tustin City Council prior to this application. At the time of the zoning hearing, concern was voiced by residents at the sear of the property over possible damage to their walls by traffic in the parking lot. The application was reviewed by t~e various departments with the following comments received: Engineering 1. A detailed grading plan be submitted for review and approval. Red Hill Avenue is classified as a major arterial highway, necessitating an ultimate right-of way width of 120 feet, 60 feet for half width. The developer should be required to dedicate or irrevocably offer to dedicate the additional 10 feet of right-of-way. The developer shall have a civil engineer revise the improvement plans for Red Hill and Mitchell Avenues (refer to Plan No. R-741) to show the con- struction of and shall construct all missing street improvements adjacent to said development per the City of Tustin "Minimum Design Standards for Public Works" and "Street Improvement Standards." 4. All new improvements shall be kept out of the ultimate right-of-way. 5. Show existing water and sewer connections. 6. The developer shall provide sufficient signing to insure proper on-site traffic flow. 7. The site plan should be submitted to the Orange County Fire Marshall for review and approval. Report to Planning Agency Page Two June 5, 1978 8. Payment of sewer connection fee per Orange County Sanitation District No. 7 ordinance. 9. The driveway aprons should be shown to be constructed per City Standard No. 108B. 10. Place a note on the final plan stating "all work within the public right- of-way will require a permit from the City of Tustin Engineering Department." 11. Annexation of the subject parcel to the Tustin Lighting District. Proof of submission of such annexation papers to the County should be provided the City prior to final acceptance of the building modification. 12. Installation of marbelite street lights and underground conduit as required by the City Engineer. Planning Staff believes the concern over damage to the property line walls has been satisfied by inclusion of raised planters at the lot lines., It is suggested, however, that all of the planters along the eastern property line be at least 18" above parking lot grade. 2. The building addition is in keeping with the design of the existing structure, and it keeps the residential character of the immediate area. e It is suggested that ~he one way drive aisle (12'-6") to the north side of the site be upgraded to 15' in width to meet development standards. This could be accomplished by reducing the walkway and planting area adjacent to the structure. 4. The existing drive entrance (20') on Mitchell should be widened to 27' This would necessitate the removal of the existing cedar tree. 5. Landscaping requirements for the total project site is: 20 - 15 gal. trees 4 - 24" box trees e The perimeter walls along the north and e~st property lines should be at least 6'-8" in height as required by Section 9271 i/2a of the Tustin City Code. In respect to Engineering comments numbers 2 and 3, the 3' high garden walls should be placed outside of the ultimate right-of-way llne or deleted from the plans.
