7,400 SQUARE FOOT RETAIL BUILDING WITH AN OUTDOOR

AVENUE AND EL CAMINO REAL (14001, 14011 NEWPORT
AVENUE AND 770 EL CAMINO REAL AND APN NOS. 401-641-05,
401-641-07)
The Planning Commission of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
I.
The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A.
That proper applications for Conditional Use Permit 04-028 and Design
Review 04-023 were filed by Makena Great American requesting approval
to construct a 7,400 square foot retail building with an outdoor seating area.
B.
The proposed project is consistent with the policies of the General Plan
land use designation "Old Town Commercial" which provides for policies
and guidelines for commercial development and complies with the Central
Commercial and Parking Overlay (C-2,P) zoning district regulations and
development standards for permitted and conditionally permitted uses. 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.
C.
That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for said
application on November 22, 2004, by the Planning Commission;
D.
Pursuant to Section 9272 of the Tustin Municipal Code, the Planning
Commission finds that the location, size, architectural features, and general
appearance of the proposed development will not impair the orderly and
harmonious development of the area, the present or future development
therein, or the occupancy as a whole. In making such findings, the
Commission 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.

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.
13. Proposed signage.
14. Development Guidelines and criteria as adopted by the City Council.
--
That the establishment, maintenance, and operation of the proposed retail
center and outdoor seating area 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 nor be a detriment to the property and improvements in the
neighborhood of the subject property, nor to the general welfare of the
City of Tustin as evidenced by the following findings.
a. The proposed project is consistent with the types of uses encouraged
by the General Plan Old Town Commercial Land Use Designation,
which provides for retail and service oriented uses. In addition, the
floor area ratio of the project is 0.25: 1 which is less than the standard
density of 0.5:1 allowed in the Old Town Commercial Land Use
Designation.
b. The proposed project complies with the development standards of the
Central Commercial Parking Overlay (C-2,P) zoning district.
c. As conditioned, the project will enhance the area in that a vacant
transmission shop and service station will be removed to
accommodate the construction of a retail building that provides
convenient services to the community, and the landscaping and
architectural design of the building with use of brick veneer accent and
stone cornice will be compatible with the envisioned Old Town
developments.
d. The proposed outdoor seating along EL Camino Real is appropriate
and complements the additional pedestrian activity desired in the Old
Town area.
e. The City's Traffic Engineer concurs with the traffic analysis prepared
by Kimley-Horn and Associates dated November 1, 2004, and revised
November 8, 2004, that found the project, as compared to existing
development, will not result in a significant increase in traffic in the
area and surrounding major intersections.
Resolution 3939
Page 3
f. The City's Traffic Engineer concurs with the traffic analysis dated
November 1, 2004, and revised November 8, 2004, which found the
site configuration provides for adequate on-site circulation for vehicles
and delivery/service vehicles and is not anticipated to impact off-site
traffic in the public right-of-way with a condition of approval that limits
delivery trucks to the hours between 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.
g. The City's Traffic Engineer concurs with the traffic analysis dated
November 1, 2004, and revised November 8, 2004, which found the
proposed driveways along EL Camino Real and Newport Avenue are
designed with sufficient queuing and would not impede on-site or off-
site traffic.
h. Sufficient on-site parking would be provided in that thirty-seven (37)
parking spaces are required and would be provided.
I. Consistent with the Guidelines for Outdoor Seating, the outdoor
seating is not in close proximity to residential uses.
J. The proposed outdoor seating use will not have a negative effect upon
the aesthetics of the area in that the proposed area will be screened
with a 36-inch low wall and adequate landscaping including four (4) 24-
inch box Tabebuia trees.
k. The typical operational hours of 5:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. for the coffee
house, and associated outdoor seating, are appropriate given the
primarily commercial nature of the area and proximity to a freeway and
major arterial roadway.
m. As conditioned, no alcoholic beverages would be served at the
establishment.
n. As conditioned, no live entertainment or amplified noise is permitted.
F.
The project is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15332 (Class 32) of
the California Environmental Quality Act.
II.
The Planning Commission hereby approves Conditional Use Permit 04-028 and
Design Review 04-023, for construction of a 7,400 square foot retail building
located at the southwest corner of Newport Avenue and EI Camino Real (14001,
14011 Newport Avenue and 770 EL Camino Real) also known as assessor parcel
nos. 401-641-05 and 401-641-07.
