WORKSHOP
TUSTIN LEGACY - A progress report on the Master Developer Planning and
Negotiation Process, including a Presentation on the refined Master Development Plan
A. Staff Report /Presentation by Master Developer by Assistant City Manager
Christine Shingleton
City Manager Huston noted a year ago, the City retained Tustin Legacy Partners
for the Master Developer footprint. In February a workshop was held to refine
the plan within context of adopted Specific Plan. Matters such as public open
space, water treatment, water runoff, transportation, etc., also Council authorized
retention of internationally renowned, Chicago based architect and urban planner
Phil Lindquist, who has developed a close working relationship with City staff,
Tustin Legacy Partners, and consultants. City Manager Huston acknowledged
all the staff who has worked hard to meet deadlines.
Assistant City Manager Christine Shingleton noted that the City entered into an
Exclusive Negotiation Agreement in November, 2003, then followed a 5 step
process; first was development of a Preliminary Plan presented in February of
2004, second was a refinement of Master Development Plan which provides for
development of a Preliminary Business Plan, and finally a term sheet and a
Development Disposition Agreement is negotiated. In February Council took
action on Preliminary Plan, and besides elimination of golf course, Council also
authorized staff to look at transferring 280 excess dwelling units into Master
Developer footprint. Also discussed location of elementary school, relocating a
portion of commercial services, and the transfer of 150 dwelling units from
City Council Special Meeting November 1, 2004
Action Agenda Page 1 of 7
Community Core to area south of Warner Avenue. City Council indicated a
desire for more open space than indicated on the Preliminary Plans and in July
directed staff to integrate a revised open space plan into the refined Master
Development Plan thereby increasing open space from 122 acres to 170 acres.
The purpose of workshop is to obtain general consensus by the Council, begin to
define value of property, set goals and objectives of City and developer and
begin structuring real estate transactions. Assistant City Manager Shingleton
thanked staff involved in brining project to this point.
Susan Lindquist, Tustin Legacy Community Partners, discussed refinement of
Master Development Plan to meet mutual goals and the City's objectives. The
refined framework plan builds on goals set in February and complies with
direction from Council and Phil Lindquist. In the next 3 to 6 months would be
testing plan against environmental regulations, infrastructure phasing, grading
and drainage and fiscal balance and value.
Joseph Smart, NBH Architects, presented outline of 6 guiding principles, and
update on plans for Tustin Legacy.
1. Linear Park - a Tustin Landmark, project's identity and plans'
dominant organizing element.
2. Connectivity -all roads lead to park, all districts lead to park.
3. The Grid Pattern - a primary organizing street element
emphasizing pedestrian-friendly walkable blocks.
4. Community Core- a vibrant mixed-use district with a variety of land
uses that will be market responsive.
5. Open Community Plan - no gates, minimal barriers, community
amenities accessible to all of Tustin.
6. No Change in specific plan/EIR capacity limits.
Community Framework Plans
o Circulation -backbone of project.
o Open Space - 170 acre open space centered with Community
Park, but linked with other parks.
o Districts - 11 distinct districts combined with architecture style,
mixed use area. Need to readjust planning areas.
o Development Plan
City Council Special Meeting November 1, 2004
Action Agenda Page 2 of 7
Original Specific Plan called for 169.3 acres of open space, the new framework
plan proposes 170 acres. The original plan had 1,825 dwelling units, currently
proposed are 2,105. The non-residential area remains the same in both the
original Specific plan and the new framework plan, allowing 7.7 million square
feet.
Linear Park will focus on amenities that are important to families. There will be a
series of focal parks throughout the residential district. Transit district includes
higher concentration of residents and live/work units. Garden district will contain
variety of single family homes, and multi-family courtyard housing. The
Neighborhood Park, Linear Park and elementary school combined together
create 40 acres of open space vital to residential districts.. Within the
neighborhood core are assembled shops, restaurants, neighborhood-serving
retail, and garden office space to create .local gathering spots for residential
community. Retail areas will be accessible by pedestrians and bicyclists. Tustin
Ranch Road will be elevated to pass over Linear Park, providing uninterrupted
connection from residential to Community Park. Within the park will be a major
water feature where trails will link to ball fields, aquatic and tennis facilities.
Open space, central location, and a vibrant mixed-use core will attract large
corporate businesses. Nature trails and walks will connect one end of the area to
the other.
Community Core will be the heart of Tustin Legacy with a mix of upscale retail
shops, restaurants, entertainment and the potential for 2 hotels, offices and
housing.
Assistant City Manager Shingleton read synopsis of Phil Lindquist's comments.
Community Park is a large continuous open space distinguishing Tustin Legacy
and utilized by all residents in City. Community Core is strong focal point to
community with a mix of housing, retail and offices. Each neighborhood is
adjacent to the park. Road system is clear and easy to understand. The
community will be seen as pedestrian friendly, one of only a few pedestrian
communities in all of Orange County. Mr. Lindquist strongly endorses the plan.
B. Council Questions
Councilmember Hagen asked about width of walking and biking paths. Susan
Lindquist responded it was between 5-10 feet although final design was not
complete. Linear Park was approximately 2 miles in length. Hagen commented
the water feature path around the lake was a great attribute. Ms. Lindquist noted
a possible exception to design would be limited pedestrian access if it became
necessary to create mitigation areas.
Councilmember Davert commented about police patrolling of the park area and
the opportunity for joint use of facilities with the Tustin Unified School District.
City Council Special Meeting November 1, 2004
Action Agenda Page 3 of 7
Mayor Kawashima asked what percentage of the park would be open space.
Susan Lindquist responded it was 25% however not all was defined as City Park
area; some may not meet definition of a park, but is actually enhanced right-of-
way open space along Tustin Ranch Road, or enhanced edge treatment around
residential neighborhoods.
Shingleton added that the Master Developer footprint included 170 acres of open
space and an additional 125 acres outside that footprint to be developed by City
or other entities. In addition there are 345 acres of public benefit conveyance
uses, including schools, transfers to South Orange County Community College
District, and Rancho Santiago Community College District. There are over 630
acres of either open space or public uses out of 1,584 acres of surplus property.
Also noted that business parameters would include phasing of Capital
improvements that would largely break out due to heavy public uses on the
project.
Councilmember Bone inquired whether economics would support 2 hotels in that
area. Ms. Lindquist stated it would depend on multi-generational plan and the
market at the time. Bone expressed his disappointment that a golf course was
not incorporated as there are no golf course with hotels in Orange County.
Councilmember Thomas stated that the collaboration between Council, staff, and
developers was outstanding. The Master Plan will created a national monument
of MCAS Tustin and a unique area to visit. One blimp hanger would remain on
site; and applauded the hard efforts of everyone involved.
Mayor Kawashima inquired about Linear Park width. Susan Lindquist said
minimum width was 400 feet wide. Original plan had included more hardscape
but was changed to a wider and more naturalized look. Mayor Kawashima also
asked how retail site would compliment the Vestar development site. Ms.
Lindquist responded their site would be built at different time to respond to a
different market, be developed in more intimate scale and would reflect a more
day-in day-out and nighttime retail convenience.
Councilmember Hagen asked what the phases of the park were going to be.
Susan indicated infrastructure development as well as cost was being analyzed.
Technical analysis was being considered to achieve a perfect balance. Water
system plan would be very pro-active and conscientious on water quality and
would be designed as such. Councilmember Hagen remarked on the absence of
gates in the planned community and asked staff if the condition would be
included in Specific Plan. Assistant City Manager Shingleton said it could be
added as part of Specific Plan amendment. Hagen also asked if the arches
would be lit every evening. Ms. Lindquist responded that approvals were needed
by FAA and Airport Land Use Commission.
Mayor Kawashima agreed with the no-gate policy and suggested it be put in
writing so future council would not be able to change concept.
City Council Special Meeting November 1, 2004
Action Agenda Page 4 of 7
Mayor Pro Tem Bone asked legal counsel if property owners could later change
the policy on no-gates. City Attorney Jeffrey stated it would be very difficult to
change the policy on a public street and said either the Specific Plan or CCR's
could impose a requirement to restrict gates.
Councilmember Thomas asked whether gates should be considered for high-end
homes, suggested not to eliminate the possibility completely, but instead allow
Council the discretion to chose on a case by case basis.
Councilmember Davert noted the Plan depended on connectivity, pedestrian
orientation and access, and the ability to move freely within the entire project. He
requested a policy be set to exclude gated communities in Tustin Legacy.
C. Public Comments
Brett Floyd, Planning Commissioner agreed with council and requested that no
gates be included in the new community.
Ann Albertson, Tustin Unified School District Board president, asked where the
border was for Irvine Unified School District. Also inquired about the recreation
center that is adjacent to elementary school. Shingleton said it was an
anticipated community recreational facility for residents and operated by
homeowners association. Ms. Albertson suggested a buffer to transit area for
the elementary school. Shingleton responded the road on West side was a
secondary arterial road with much traffic and noise. The goal was to provide an
additional buffer to areas that are more sensitive to noise such as residential
neighborhoods and public schools.
D. Recommendation: By Motions take action to:
1. Concur with the refined Master Development Plan including the
Circulation, Open Space, and Land Use Plans which incorporates input
and previous direction from the City Council for purposes of the
Developer's completion of Phase II and III of the Master Developer
Planning and Negotiation Process as identified in Exhibit A and I of the
Exclusive Negotiation Agreement, as amended, including concurrence to
the following features and implementation recommendations:
City Council Special Meeting November 1, 2004
Action Agenda Page 5 of 7
Francine Scinto expressed her appreciation to Council for approving
modifications made with the community park including potential aquatics and
tennis facilities next to the high school site.
(a.) Reconfirm February 17, 2004 direction to eliminate the golf course
and replace with community benefiting open space, subject to
preparation of any necessary Specific Plan Amendments.
(b.) Reconfirm February 17, 2004 location of the elementary school in
Neighborhood G central to the neighborhood as an educational and
recreational focus within the neighborhood.
(c.) Reconfirm the transfer of a portion of village commercial services
uses from Neighborhood B to Neighborhood G.
(d.) Increase Open Space from 122 acres as originally shown in
February 17, 2004 Preliminary Master Development Plan to 170
acres.
2. Direct City Staff and the Master Developer to prepare Specific Plan
amendments as follows:
• Readjust the boundaries of the Neighborhood D (Planning Area 8),
the Community Core, to accommodate uses and square footages
as originally anticipated by the Specific Plan due to the introduction
of additional open space, and to activate and maximize the
potential attraction of a core central area of the Master
Development to mixed uses.
• Accommodate the 280 units to be transferred to Neighborhood D
based on the density classification of the Planning Areas from
which the units are being transferred (212 units will be designated
Medium-High Density Residential at density range of 16-25
d.u.'s/acre and 68 units will be classified Low Density at a density
range of 0-7 d.u.'s/acre).
• Prepare development standards for mixed-use land uses (both
vertical and horizontal mixed use) and other new or revised
standards as may be necessary to implement the Master
Development Plan.
3. Direct city staff to add provisions in form of DDA deed restrictions, CCR
requirements, and/or Specific Plan amendments to preclude gating in
residential neighborhoods based on review and feedback from the City
Attorney.
It was moved by Councilmember Hagen, seconded by Councilmember Thomas,
to approve Items 1 through 3 as recommended by staff. Motion carried 5-0.
Assistant City Manager Shingleton summarized the subsequent steps in Exclusive
Negotiation Agreement schedule. The developer would be submitting a preliminary
business plan before end of year as well as preliminary design guidelines. The Cit~r
would then proceed to frame a business transaction in form of a Term Sheet by April 1 S .
