RESOLUTION NO. 3787
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
TUSTIN, APPROVING DESIGN REVIEW 00-046, HILLSIDE REVIEW
00-001, AND ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT 01-001 FOR
CONSTRUCTION OF TWENTY-TWO (22) RESIDENTIAL UNITS AND
AN INCREASE IN HEIGHT OF PILASTERS AT THE SECONDARY
ENTRANCE TO A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF NINE.(9) FEET.
The Planning Commission of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A.
That proper applications for DeSign Review 00-046, Hillside Review
00-001, and Administrative Adjustment 01-001 were filed by
Standard Pacific Homes requesting approval for development of 22
Estate (E) density single-family detached units and increase in height
of pilasters at the secondary entrance to a maximum of nine (9) feet;
Bo
The proposed project is consistent with the policies of the East
Tustin Specific Plan and the General Plan land use designations
"Planned Community Residential" which provides for policies and
guidelines for planned residential development. 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,
Pursuant to the East Tustin Specific Plan, an increase of twenty
percent (20%) in the maximum permitted height of a fence or wall
of seven feet' six inches (7'-6") requires approval of an
Administrative Adjustment that may be granted by the Community
Development Director and has been deferred to the Planning
Commission for consideration;
D,
That the Planning Commission considered the project on May 14,
2001;
Eo
Pursuant to the East Tustin Specific Plan and 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.
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.
13. Proposed signage.
14. Development Guidelines and criteria as adopted by the City
Council;
The proposed subdivision and development complies with the East
Tustin Specific Plan land use designation and development
standards for the project site;
The proposed project will not have a negative effect on the
surrounding properties or owners in that sufficient infrastructure will
be developed to support the development such as roadways and
utilities and the site layout and massing, scale, and architectural
design of the proposed residences are compatible with the setting
and similar to other residential tracts in the area;
That pursuant to Section 3.13.2 of the East Tustin Specific Plan
and Section 9299(C)(3) of the Tustin City Code, there are special
circumstances regarding the size, configuration, topography and
surroundings of the subject property in that the project site is
located within the East Tustin Specific Plan Hillside District and
comprised of steep slopes and grades. The increased height of
the entry pilasters and fencing is necessary to ensure their
effectiveness in directing access to the gated community given the
sloped configuration of the entry area. Granting the adjustment
would not be a grant of special privileges in that other properties in
the vicinity with similar site constraints have been granted similar
adjustments. Considering the width of the entrance, the proposed
height of the gates and fencing would be appropriate;
The Planning Commission finds that open access at secondary
accesses should be preserved and maintained in accordance with
the two initial phases of the project. Installation of locking devices
to limit pedestrian access may considered by the City Council in
Resolution 3787

conjunction with a comprehensive pedestrian access policy for the
East Tustin Specific Plan area; and,
That the proposed grading is in compliance with the guidelines
noted in Section 2.15 of the East Tustin Specific Plan for Hillside
development in that the grading of sloped areas has been designed
to blend with the natural character of the hillsides.
That Planning Commission has approved a Final Negative
Declaration for the project in conformance with the requirements of
the California Environmental Quality Act.

The Planning Commission hereby approves Design Review 00-046, Hillside
Review 00-001, and Administrative Adjustment 01-001 authorizing
development of twenty-two (22) Estate (E) density single-family detached
units and an increase in the allowable height of seven feet six inches (7'-6")
to nine (9) feet for pilasters at the secondary entrance, subject to conditions
contained in Exhibit A attached hereto.
