RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning Commission:
1.
Adopt Resolution No. 3962 recommending that the City Council adopt the
Negative Declaration as adequate for Vesting Tentative Tract Map 16790 and
adopting the Negative Declaration as adequate for Design Review 04-025 for the
development of ninety-three (93) residential condominium units.
2.
Adopt Resolution No. 3963 recommending that the City Council approve Vesting
Tentative Tract Map 16790 to subdivide an existing 4.99 acre site into one (1) lot
for the purpose of developing ninety-three (93) residential condominium units.
3.
Adopt Resolution No. 3964 approving Design Review 04-025 for design review
and site planning to allow for the development of ninety-three (93) residential
condominium units.
BACKGROUND
The project site is a 4.99 acre parcel improved with sixty-five (65) apartments and is
surrounded by commercial developments to the east, EI Camino Real Street and
Interstate 5 Freeway to the south, and Tustin High School parking lot and school field to
the west and to the north (Attachment A - Location Map). The site is zoned Multiple
Family Residential (R-3) District and designated by the General Plan as High Density
Residential which provide for the development of residential condominiums.
The project includes demolition of the existing apartments, a Vesting Tentative Tract Map
to subdivide the parcel into a condominium tract, and a Design Review for the review of
building design, site planning, and site development of a ninety-three (93) unit residential
condominium complex.
DISCUSSION
The discussion that follows includes analyses of the project description and site plan,
access, architecture, landscaping, and environmental documentation.
Project Descriøtion and Site Plan
The site is developed with sixty-five (65) apartments that were constructed in 1963. The
proposed project would demolish the existing apartments and replace with new ninety-
three (93) attached condominium units (Attachment 8 - Submitted Plans). The existing
4.99 acre lot fronts onto EI Camino Real. Access to and from the site to EI Camino Real
would be through a gated private street. The site is designed with a "T" shaped private
streets with narrower drives that would branch out from the main street. The project
Planning Commission Report

VTTM 16790 and DR 04-025
Page 3 of 8
would have a total of twenty-four (24) buildings which would be developed into four (4)
phases. The Model Phase would consist of five (5) units and the pool/recreation area
and the subsequent Phases I, II, and III each would have 28, 33, and 27 units
respectively. .
The complex is arranged with buildings that are designed in rows. Each building has
three (3) or five (5) units with front entrances facing one another and garages arranged
back to back. Each unit is designed with a private patio at the front entrance and end
units would have balconies next to master bedrooms in addition to the private patio area.
Common landscape areas between the units would also be provided with decorative
walkways and landscape areas.
The proposed buildings are two (2) to three (3) stories in height along the main/front
entrance area and three stories in height at the rear or garage elevation (Attachment 8 -
Submitted Plans). Six (6) elevations are proposed which consist of four (4) floor plans
(Plans A, 8, C, and D) and two (2) variations of Plan A (Plan A2 and A3) as follows:

Access. Circulation. Parkinø. and Traffic Analysis
.
Access
The complex will have one (1) sixty-seven (67) foot wide private street access on EI
Camino Real. The project entry area is designed with decorative pavement and
landscape median. Wrought iron gates will be installed at approximately 75 feet
from the public right-of-way to provide an adequate vehicle stacking area. Two
lanes are provided for entering the complex in which one lane is used for residents
and the other is for visitors and residents. The gates are designed to provide for a
daily volume of 744 vehicles and 42 vehicles per hour. The traffic analysis (Exhibit
A of Resolution No. 3962) analyzed the potential queue of vehicles and found the
expected queue will be zero most of the time and one (1) vehicle occasionally.
Queuing will rarely be more than two (2) vehicles. Regardless of the occasional
queue, the study recommends a storage area of two (2) vehicles or approximately
fifty (50) feet from the gates to the right-of-way line at EI Camino Real. Since the
gates are setback approximately seventy-five (75) feet, no impact to traffic along EI
Camino Real is anticipated.
.
Circulation
Circulation within the site is accommodated by a "Tn shaped full width private
streets and twenty-five (25) to thirty-one (31) foot interior drive aisles which do not
meet the requirements for private streets. Section 3.2 of the City's Construction
Standards for Private Streets, Storm Drain and On-Site Private Improvements
authorizes the Building Official to approve deviations from the private street
standards. The Building Official has reviewed and approved the following
deviations: private drive width, inside curb radius, and sidewalk requirements
between garages.
In addition, since the drive aisles provide internal circulation and serve as trash and
fire truck turnarounds, all interior drive aisles will need to have a minimum of
twenty-five (25) feet in width and be designated as fire lanes per OCFA
requirements. Condition 4.1 of Resolution No. 3964 requires the applicant to
submit a Fire Master Plan to include detailed information related to fire lanes,
signs, red curb, etc. to OCFA for review and approval.
Circulation for pedestrians is accommodated by sidewalks on each side of the
main private streets extending from the public sidewalk at EI Camino Real to the
private sidewalks at the project site. The sidewalks connect the unit entrances to
the common areas, trash enclosure, and interior driveways.

.
Parking
Tustin City Code Section 9226a1 U) requires a minimum of two (2) covered parking
spaces per unit and each unit is designed with a two car-garage. The Tustin City
Code also requires a minimum of one (1) unassigned open guest parking space for
every four (4) units or 24 guest parking spaces, and the project provides a total of
thirty-one (31) guest parking spaces. The guest parking spaces are dispersed along
the main private streets, between buildings, and in close proximity to each building
cluster to allow for easy access to the units. In addition, as discussed in the
Circulation section above, no parking would be allowed along the drive aisles since
these drive aisles serve as service and fire truck turnarounds.
.
Traffic Analysis
The traffic analysis for this project is contained in a document prepared by Katz,
Okitsu & Associates (Exhibit A of Resolution No. 3962) as follows:
Ý EI Camino Real Street Capacity
The project is anticipated to generate approximately 744 daily vehicle trips.
This is an increase of 316 vehicles per day more than the existing land use.
EI Camino Real, where the project is located is a four-lane street and has a
capacity of 24,000 vehicles. Currently EI Camino Real serves 11,500
vehicles per day. Adding 316 vehicles per day to the existing level of service
would bring EI Camino Real to a total of 11,816 vehicles per day which is still
below the maximum capacity. Therefore the increase of three (3) percent to
the existing level of service is considered to be insignificant. In addition, the
total trips from the site are not sufficient to warrant a traffic signal at this
location.
Ý Traffic/Trip Generation
In the AM peak hour, 62 trips are expected which include 16 trips entering
and 46 trips exiting the site. In the PM peak hour, 73 trips. are expected
which include 42 trips entering and 31 trips exiting the site. This is an
increase of 32 additional trips in the AM peak hour and 35 additional trips in
the PM peak hour from the current land use. The peak hour volume of 46
outbound trips is less than the threshold value .for minor street volume;
therefore, no new traffic signal would be required.
Planning Commission Report
February 14, 2005
VTTM 16790 and DR 04-025
Page 6 of 8
Ý Project and School Interaction
In addition to the trip generation study, observations were done before and
after school to assess the interaction of the project with the adjacent Tustin
High School. There is very little interaction between vehicles entering and
exiting the project site and vehicles to and from Tustin High School in either
AM or PM high school peak periods. However, re-striping of the existing
paved median on EI Camino Real to provide a 75-foot eastbound left turn
lane into the project would provide more efficient access to the site. Condition
3.1 of Resolution No. 3963 requires the applicant to re-stripe the existing
paved median to provide a 75-foot left turn lane into the project. Pedestrian
traffic along EI Camino Real before and after school was also observed and
was found to have little impact on the ability of vehicles to enter and exit the
existing apartments during those periods.
In conclusion, while the study finds that the traffic impacts of the proposed project
have no adverse effect on the surrounding street system, the study uses
assumptions and recommendations that tie to the project design and density.
Therefore, Condition 3.1 of Resolution No. 3964 requires a new or revised traffic
study should the project's density or design be modified.
Architecture
Condominium Units
The buildings are designed in a Spanish Eclectic architectural theme. In general, the
buildings are two stories high along the front elevation and three stories high along the
rear elevation. End units (Plan C) would have a third floor along the front elevatio(1 and
maintain the same rear elevation as other units. Due to the grade elevation difference
at the front and rear of the buildings, the area between buildings' frontages will be filled
four (4)' to six (6) feet high to create an elevated courtyard. With this design, the
garages are considered as basements; therefore, no second exits at top floors would
be required. To prevent flooding in the basement area, Condition 2.9 of Resolution No.
3964 requires a grading plan to be prepared by a licensed engineer to include site and
building design that would drain properly.
The courtyard between the buildings will be landscaped and designed with walkways
connecting the parking areas to the entrances. To the front of each unit, a private patio
separated with a three foot high block wall is proposed. The exterior elevations are
enhanced with architectural details such as gable roofs, wood trim, various size
windows, decorative window shutters, awnings, balconies, wood entry doors, and
various stucco colors to create visual interest. The roof material is proposed to be full-
dimensional concrete shingles in the "Mission San Diegon reddish brown color to
complement the proposed architectural style and color scheme.
Planning Commission Report
February 14, 2005
VTTM 16790 and DR 04-025
Page 7 of 8
The applicant proposes five (5) stucco colors. Each unit uses two (2) to three (3)
stucco colors to create visual interest. Each door is painted a rich brown color to
complement the stucco colors. All shutters, trellises, and trims will be painted beige
brown similar to the roof color. Entrances to the units are designed with entry columns
and alternating shed and gable roofs. Material and color sample boards for the project
will be available at the Planning Commission meeting.
Pool/Recreation Area
The design of the pool/recreation building is similar to the Spanish Eclectic architecture
of the housing units. As mentioned before, the pool area will be improved with a pool
and a spa, a fountain, restrooms, a shower, an outdoor fire place, and seating area.
The pool area is enclosed with six (6) foot high fence and gate and is decorated with a
wood trellis. The trellis is supported with thick pilasters covered with stone veneer and
serves as a focal point as individuals enter the complex.
Landscaøe~ardscaøe
Evergreen street trees will be provided along EI Camino Real. Actual types of trees and
sizes will be determined at plan check submittal (Conditions 1 .15 and 1.16 of Resolution
No. 3964). Additional trees and landscape treatments are proposed around the main
private street, pool area, parking areas, walkways, and the perimeter landscape area to
create a buffer between the project and the adjacent commercial and school uses. The
proposed trees include: Brisbane Box, Cajeput, Australian Willow, and Eucalyptus
Citriodora. A variety of ground covers, annual color beds, and shrubs would be utilized
throughout the site.
Decorative paving is also proposed at the main entrance into the site, in the area to the
front of the pool area, and at each interior drive aisle. Perimeter six (6) foot high walls are
proposed along the boundaries of the site with the exception of the front setback area
where the wall would need to be reduced to three (3) feet in height (Condition 1.8 of
Resolution No. 3964). The same condition also requires the block walls to be treated with
anti-graffiti materials. A minimum of 24-inch box trees and dense placements of shrubs
will be required to be planted along the block walls to soften the appearance of the walls
and to provide buffers to the adjacent uses (Condition 1.16 of Resolution No. 3964).
Noise Analysis
The project will be constructed within an area with exterior Community Noise Equivalent
(CNEL) contours that range from 60 dB to 70 dB (Figure N-1 of Tustin Noise Element).
The provisions of the State of California Noise Insulation Standards and the City of
Tustin Noise Ordinance limits the indoor noise levels for multifamily residential living
spaces not to exceed 45 dB and exterior noise level not to exceed 55dB. Table N-2 of
Planning Commission Report
February 14, 2005
VTTM 16790 and DR 04-025
Page 8 of 8
the Tustin Noise Element identifies potential conflicts between the land uses and the
noise environment. Per Table N-2, the proposed project falls within Zone A through
Zone C. Zone A implies no mitigation measure will be needed, Zone 8 implies minor
soundproofing may be needed, and Zone C implies noise mitigation such as
construction of noise barriers or building sound insulation will be necessary.
Since the buildings along EI Camino Real will be located within Zone C, the applicant
submitted an acoustical analysis (Exhibit A of Resolution No. 3962), which analyzed
potential noise impacts. Based upon the submitted acoustical analysis, the exterior
ambient noise level at the project site is at 71.1 dB which is above the exterior noise
standards for residential properties of 55 dB. In this event, Section 4614(c) of the
Tustin City Code allows the maximum exterior noise level to be increased to reflect the
ambient noise level of 71.1 dB.
The study also recommends needed noise insulation features in the design of the
buildings to reduce the interior noise level to 45 dB. The noise reduction technique
recommended by the acoustical analysis would be implemented and made as
conditions of the project. Condition 1.21 of Resolution No. 3964 requires certain noise
insulation features be incorporated into the buildings' design to ensure compliance with
the City's noise standards.
Environmental Analysis
A Negative Declaration has been prepared for this project (Exhibit A of Resolution No.
3962). The attached Initial Study discusses potential impact categories and appropriate
mitigation measures. Any potential impacts can be mitigated to a level of insignificance
and mitigation measures have been included as conditions of approval. The public
comments period for the environmental documents was from January 25, 2005, to
February 14, 2005, at noon. No comments were received during the public review period.

C. DETERMINATION:
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
0 I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a
NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
¡:gJ I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will
not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet
have been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
0 I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
0 I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect(s) on the environment, but at least one
effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and
2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached
sheets, if the effect is a "Potentially Significant Impact" or "Potentially Significant Unless Mitigated."
An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that
remain to be addressed.
0 I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there WILL
NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects 1) have been analyzed
adequately in an earlier EIR pursuant to applicable standards, and 2) have been avoided or mitigated
pursuant to that earlier EIR, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the
proposed project.
0 I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there WILL
NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects 1) have been analyzed
adequately in an earlier NEGATIVE DECLARA IION pursuant to applicable standards, and 2) have
been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or
mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project.

D. EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
Directions
1)
A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by the
information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer is
adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects
like the one involved (e.g. the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No Impact" answer should be
explained where it is based on project-specific factors and general standards (e.g. the project will not expose
sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening analysis).
2)
All answers must take into account the whole action involved, including off-site, on-site, cumulative project level,
indirect, direct, construction, and operational impacts.
3)
Once the lead agency has determined that a particular physical impact may occur, the checklist answers must
indicate whether the impact is potentially significant, less than significant with mitigation, or less than significant.
"Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect may be significant. If
there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made, an EIR is required.
4)
"Negative Declaration: Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of
mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less than Significant
Impact." The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect
to a less than significant level (mitigation measures from Section XVII, "Earlier Analyses," may be cross-
referenced).
5)
Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, an effect has
been adequately analyzed in an earlier ElR or negative declaration. Section 15063 (c) (3)(D). In this case, a brief
discussion should identify the following:
a)
Earlier Analysis Used. Identify and state where they are available for review.
b)
Impacts Adequately Addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were within the scope of
and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and state whether
such effects were addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis.
c)
Mitigation Measures. For effects that are "Less than Significant with Mitigation Measures Incorporated,"
describe the mitigation measures which were incorporated or refined from the earlier document and the
extent to which they address site-specific conditions for the project.
6)
Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information sources for potential
impacts (e.g. general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a previously prepared or outside document should,
where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated.
7)
Supporting Information Sources: A source list should be attached, and other sources used or individuals
contacted should be cited in the discussion.
8)
This is only a suggested form, and lead agencies are free to use different formats; however, lead agencies
normally address the questions from this checklist that are relevant to a project's environmental effects in
whatever format is selected.
9)
The explanation of each issue should identify:
a) the significance criteria or threshold, if any, used to evaluate each question; and,
b) the mitigation measure identified, if any, to reduce the impact to less than significance.
Less Than
Significant
Potentially With Less Than
Significant Mitigation Significant
I. AESTHETICS - Would the project: Impact Incorporation Impact No Impact
a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? 0 0 0 r21
b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not
limited to, trees, rock outcropping;, and historic buildings
within a state scenic highway? 0 0 0 r21
c) Substantially degrade the existing visual character or
quality of the site and its surroundings? 0 0 ø 0
d) Create a new soùrce of substantial light or glare, which
would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? 0 r21 0 0
II. AGRICULTURE RESOURCES: In detennining
whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant
environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the
California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment
Model (1997) prepared by the California Dept. of
Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts
on agriculture and fannland. Would the project:
a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Fannland, or Farmland
of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps
prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring
Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-
agricultural use? 0 0 0 ~
b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a
Williamson Act contract? 0 0 0 ~
c) Involve other changes in the existing environment, which,
due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of
Farmland, to non-agricultural use? 0 0 0 r21
III. AIR QUALITY: Where available, the significance
criteria established by the applicable air quality management
or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the
following detenninations. Would the project:
a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable
air quality plan? 0 0 ø 0
b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially
to an existing or projected air quality violation? 0 0 ø 0
c) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any
criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-
attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air
quality standard (including releasing emissions, which exceed
quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? 0 0 ~ 0
d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant
concentrations? 0 0 ~ 0
e) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number
of people? 0 0 ~ 0
Less Than

IV. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES: - Would the project: Impact Incorporation. Impact No Impact
a) Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or
through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a
candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or
regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California
Department ofFish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service? 0 0 0 r8J
b) Have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat
or other sensitive natural community identified in local or
regional plans, policies, regulations or by the California
Department ofFish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service? 0 0 0 r8J
c) Have a substantial adverse effect on federally protected
wetlands as derIDed by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.)
through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or
other means? 0 0 0 r8J
d) Interfere substantially with the movement of any native

EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
VESTING TENTATIVE TRACT MAP 16790 AND DESIGN REVIEW 04-025
NEVIS TUSTIN, LLC.
1361 EL CAMINO REAL
BACKGROUND
The project site is a 4.99 acre parcel improved with sixty-five (65) apartments (The Cottages)
and is surrounded by commercial developments to the east, El Camino Real Street and Interstate
5 Freeway to the south, and Tustin High School parking lot and school field to the west and to
the north. The site is zoned Multiple Family Residential (R-3) District and designated by the
General Plan as High Density Residential which provide for the development of duplexes,
condominiums, town homes, and apartments at 15-25 dwelling units per acre. The project
density is at 18.64 dwelling units per acre which is below the maximum density of 25 dwelling
units per acre allowed by the High Density Residential land use designation.
The project includes demolition of the existing apartments, a Vesting Tentative Tract Map to
subdivide the parcel into a condominium tract, and a Design Review for the review of building
design, site planning, and site development of a ninety-three (93) unit condominium complex.
The project will include the construction of two (2) and three (3) story buildings with basement
parking totaling 156,655 square feet of residential development. Six (6) plans are proposed
which consist of four (4) floor plans (Plans A, B, C, and D) and two (2) variations of Plan A
(Plan A2 and A3). Plans A and B would have 1,580 square feet of floor area, Plan A2 and A3
would have 1,681 and 1,697 square feet respectively, Plan C would have 2,035 square feet of
floor area, and Plan D would have 1,984 square feet.
1. AESTHETICS
Items a & b - No Impact:
The property is 4.99 acres developed with an existing apartment complex and is surrounded
by developed parcels. The property is not located on a scenic vista or within a State scenic
highway, thus would not damage scenic resources such as trees, rock outcroppings, or
historical buildings within a State scenic highway.
Mitigation Measures/Monitoring Required:
None Required.
Item c - Less Than Significant Impact
The property is currently improved and occupied by one-story apartments. The construction
of a three-story housing project would change the visual character of the site and its
surroundings. The site is surrounded by a two-story commercial building to the east, El
Camino Real street and the elevated Interstate 5 freeway to the south, and Tustin High
School parking lot and play field to the west and north. The buildings will be setback fifteen

(15) feet away from the front property lines, ten (10) feet to eighteen (18) feet away from the
side property lines, and fourteen and half (14~) feet from the rear property line. These
setbacks are greater than the minimum required setbacks of fifteen (15) feet, five (5) feet, and
ten (10) feet for front, side, and rear setbacks, respectively. In addition, trees and heavy
landscaping will be planted within the setback areas. Because adequate landscaping, tract
setback from streets, and decorative architecture will be utilized, there will not be any
significant visual impacts to the site.
Item d - Less than Significant Impact with Mitigation Incorporated
The proposed new condominium complex would generate new light sources with installation
of new exterior lighting for landscape areas, patios, and parking areas. However, the new
sources of light would not adversely affect day- or night-time views in the area since the
amount of lights would be commensurate with a typical residential project and would be
required to comply with the City's security standards and all lights would be arranged so that
no direct rays would shine onto adjacent property.
Mitigation Measures/Monitoring Required:
.
At building plan check the applicant shall submit a photometric study for buildings and
common area lighting and shall ensure that lighting be of a typical residential level and
shall be arranged so that direct rays do not shine on adjacent properties, subject to the
review and approval of the Community Development Director.
2. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES
Items a, b & c - No Impact:
The proposed project will be located on a site that is currently improved and occupied by
apartment buildings and surrounded by developed commercial properties and a school. The
proposed project is not located on a property designated as Prime farmland, Unique farmland,
or Farmland of Statewide Importance, nor is it located within a property zoned for agricultural
use, or a Williamson Act contract; therefore, the project will have no impacts on any farmland,
nor will it conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract. The
proposed project will not result in conversion of farmland to a non-agricultural use.

3. AIR QUALITY
Items a. b. c. d & e - Less Than Significant Impact:
The project will temporarily increase the amount of short-term emissions to the area due to
grading of the property and construction activities. Since the site is relatively flat, only minor
grading will be required. The project is below the thresholds of significance established by
Tables 6-2 (operation thresholds) and 6-3 (construction thresholds) of the Air Quality
Management District's CEQA Air Quality Handbook. The Air Quality Management
District's CEQA Air Quality Handbook is intended to provide professional guidance for
analyzing and mitigating air quality impacts of projects when preparing environmental
documents.
The construction of fewer than 1,309,000 square feet of building, the grading of fewer than
177.00 acres, and the operation of fewer than 297 condominium units is not considered a
significant impact. Since the total building area will be 156,655 square feet on 4.99 acres of
land and the project would have a total of 93 units, which is less than the operational
threshold of 297 units, no impact is anticipated. Less than significant short-term emissions
associated with grading, construction, and operation of the proposed project will comply with
the regulations of the South Coast Air Quality Management District and the City of Tustin
Grading Manual, which include requirements for dust control. As such, the proposed project
will not create a significant impacts related to air quality.

4. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
Items a. b. c. d. e & f - No Impact:
The site is improved and occupied by an apartment complex and is surrounded with
properties that are developed with pavement and structures. The site is not inhabited by any
sensitive species of animals and would have no impacts on animal populations, diversity of
species, or migratory patterns. No wetlands exists within the project site. The project would
include the removal of trees to accommodate the development and new trees and landscape
materials will be provided in accordance with the Tustin Landscape and Irrigation guidelines.
No impacts to any unique, rare, or endangered species of plant or animal life identified in local
or regional plans, policies, or regulations by the California Department of Fish and Game or
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service would occur as a result of this project.

Items a-H. a-iH. & d - Less Than Significant Impact:
The proposed building will be located on expansive soil and is located within an area that
may subject people or structures to strong seismic ground shaking and seismic-related ground
failure including liquefaction. However, a soils report is required to be submitted prior to
building permit issuance per the 2001 Uniform Building Code to demonstrate compliance
with Chapter 18, which requires proper excavation and fills for buildings, structures,
foundations, and retaining structures, and appropriate construction techniques to ensure
seismic stability. No significant impact is anticipated since the project would be conditioned
to comply with the 2001 Uniform Building Code related to Chapter 18.

7. HAZARDS & HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Items a through h - No Impact:
The proposed project involves the construction of a ninety-three (93) condominium complex.
No storage or transports of hazardous materials are anticipated from the proposed residential
development. The project would not result in exposure to hazardous substances other than
the possibility of household hazardous waste generation which residents could properly
dispose of most unwanted items at approved County drop-off locations. Because the use is
for residential purposes, the project is not anticipated to need or emit hazardous materials
which could create a hazard to the adjacent school or the general public if released into the
environment. The site is not listed as a hazardous materials site, is not located on any
potential impact zones identified for John Wayne Airport, and there are no private airstrips
nearby. The project has been reviewed by the Tustin Police Department who determined that
the project will not interfere with any evacuation plans. The project has received preliminary
review by the Orange County Fire Authority and no comments were received indicating that the
project would interfere with any evacuation plans. All grading and construction is subject to
compliance with all applicable Uniform Building and Fire Codes. As such, the project is not
anticipated to result in any significant hazards.

8. HYDROLOGY & W A TEß..Q!!MJIX
Items a. b. c. d. e. k. 1. m. n & 0 - Less Than Significant Impact:
The project site is relatively flat, and the proposed project will continue to maintain a
relatively flat site with improved site drainage, including roads, curbs and gutters, and
additional landscaping. With new construction, there is the potential to impact stormwater
runoff from construction and post-construction activities with stormwater pollutants from the
maintenance of landscape areas and the trash enclosures. There is also the potential for
discharge of stormwater to affect the beneficial uses of the receiving waters and changes in
the flow velocity or volume of storm water runoff. However, the project is required to
comply with the City's Water Quality Ordinance and most recently adopted NPDES permit
(Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) Order R8-2002-001O), thus
reducing any potential impacts to a level of insignificance. Together, these regulations
minimize water pollution by regulating point sources that discharge pollutants into local
waters. As such, the project will not violate any water quality standards or waste discharge
requirements or degrade water quality in the area.
Mitigation Measures:
None Required.
Sources: Field Verification

Tustin City Code
California Seismic Hazard Zone Map, Tustin Quadrangle, January 17,2001
Items f. g. h. i. i and p - No Impact:
The project site is relatively flat, and the proposed project will continue to maintain a
relatively flat site with improved site drainage and additional landscaping. A significant
amount of stormwater received on-site will percolate into the soil where landscaping is
provided and remaining stormwater will be conveyed through a fossil filter prior to entering a
City stormdrain. City stromwater infrastructure is able to accommodate additional water
from the project. The applicant must provide a drainage and hydrology report to the City and
demonstrate that the private stormwater drainage system will be able to able to handle the
capacity of any wastewater directed into the system. Best Management Practices are
required to be implemented for construction activity and would deter water from flowing off-
site. Any water that would leave the site would be filtered prior to entering a City storm
drain. Best Management Practices will also be implemented to ensure that, once the tract is
constructed, wastewater will be filtered prior to entering the storm drain. As such, the project
will not violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or degrade water
quality in the area.
While the project is located within Zone X (areas of 0.2 percent annual chance flood), the
project site is located outside a 1O0-year flood hazard area (areas of 1 percent annual chance
of flood) as mapped on a Flood Insurance Rate Map. Accordingly, the project will be
Nevis Tustin
VTTM 16790 and DR 04-025
Page 7
designed and graded with appropriate drainage system to avoid any potential flood hazards.
The project is not located within a I DO-year flood hazard area structure which will impede or
redirect flood flows. The project site will not expose people or structures to a significant risk
ofloss, injury, or death as a result of the failure of a levee or dam, or by inundation by seiche,
tsunami, or mudflow.

9. LAND USE PLANNING
Items a. b & c - No Impact:
The property is designated by the General Plan Land Use Map as High Density Residential
and zoned Multiple Family Residential (R-3). The proposed use would be consistent with
the applicable land use and zoning regulations. The proposed project would increase
percentage of ownership housing consistent with Goal 3 of the Housing Element, the project
is accessible through the City's current street system, and the project could be supported with
existing transportation and public facilities.
The proposed project would not divide an established community since it includes
construction on an existing site that is already improved with multiple family residential.
The proposed project is not located in the conservation plan or natural community
conservation plan. The proposed project would not conflict with any applicable conservation
plan.

11. NOISE
Item a - Less Than Significant with Mitigation Incorporation
The project will be constructed within an area with exterior Community Noise Equivalent
(CNEL) contours that range from 60 dB to 70 dB (Figure N-l of Tustin Noise Element). The
provisions of the State of California Noise Insulation Standards and the City of Tustin Noise
Ordinance limits the indoor noise levels for multifamily residential living spaces to not
exceed 45 dB and exterior noise level to not exceed 55dB. Table N-2 of the Tustin Noise
Element identifies potential conflicts between the land uses and the noise environment. Per
Table N-2, the proposed project falls within Zone A through Zone C. Zone A implies no
mitigation measure will be needed, Zone B implies minor soundproofing may be needed, and
Zone C implies noise mitigation such as construction of noise barriers or building sound
insulation will be necessary.
Since the buildings along EI Camino Real will be located within Zone C, the applicant
submitted an acoustical analysis (Exhibit 1), which analyses potential noise impacts. Based
upon the submitted acoustical analysis, the exterior ambient noise level at the project site is at
71.1 dB which is above the exterior noise standards for residential properties of 55 dB. In
this event, Section 4614( c) of the Tustin City Code allows the maximum noise level to be
increased to reflect the ambient noise level of 71.1 dB.
The study also recommends needed noise insulation features in the design of the buildings to
reduce the interior noise level to 45 dB. The noise reduction technique recommended by the
acoustical analysis would be implemented and made as conditions of the project. With the
implementation mitigation measures listed below, potential noise impact would be reduced to
less than significant.
Mitigation Measures/Monitoring Required:
.
Roof ceiling construction will be roofing on V2" plywood. Batt insulation will be
installed in joist spaces. The ceilings will be one layer of 5/8" gyp board nailed direct.
.
All exterior walls will be 2 x 4 studs 16" O.c. with Batt insulation in the stud spaces.
Exteriors will be exterior plaster or stucco. The interiors will be 5/8 gyboard.
.
All windows and glass doors shown in red light in Figure 1 if the Acoustical Analysis
(Exhibit 1) will be glazed with STC 32 glazing. STC 32 glazing can be provided with
either 1/4" laminated glass or a dual pane assembly with a W' airspace. In either case,
Nevis Tustin
VTTM 16790 and DR 04-025

the glazing supplier should submit a test report documenting the STC 29 rating. The test
report should be prepared in an independent, accredited testing laboratory in accordance
with ASTM E-90.
.
All other windows and glass doors may be standard glazing.
.
All entry doors would be 1-3/4 solid core doors with weather stripping seals on the sides
and top. Glazing in entry doors should not be accepted.
.
There should not be no mail slots in the entry doors.
.
If interior allowable noise levels are met by requiring that windows be unopenable or
closed, the design for the structure must also specify a ventilation or air conditioning
system to provide a habitable interior environment. The ventilation system must not
compromise the dwelling units or guest room noise reduction.

Items b, c & d- Less Than Significant Impact:
The project includes construction of ninety-three (93) condominium units on an existing
parcel that is developed with an apartment complex. Although the grading and construction
of the site may result in typical temporary construction noise impacts, the Tustin Noise
Ordinance only allows construction activities to occur during the daytime on Monday
through Saturday to eliminate construction noise during the nighttime hours.
The proposed project will not create excessive ground vibrations, nor will it create a pennanent
increase in the existing ambient noise levels beyond the established standards.

Item e & f - No Impact:
The site is not located within an airport land use plan or within two (2) miles of a public or
private airport. The proposed project is three (3) stories in height with basement parking.
Although the project is not located within the John Wayne Airport flight path, it is in close
proximity to the incoming flights over the State Route 55 freeway to John Wayne Airport.

The City, County, and State criteria for Community Noise Equivalent (CNEL) for exterior
residential uses is 65 dB consistent with the Tustin Noise standards. In accordance with the
California Airport Noise Standards, John Wayne Airport performs quarterly noise monitoring
at several locations. Based on the quarterly noise abatement reports, the project is not
located within the 65 CNEL area/noise impact area. As a result, no specific method of
construction would be required to mitigate the unanticipated aircraft noise impacts. The
project, however, would be conditioned to meet City's noise standards.

12. POPULATION & HOUSING
Items a and b - No Impact:
The proposed project would replace sixty-five (65) apartment units with ninety-three (93)
condominium units and increase the number of housing units in the area by 28 units. The
increase in the number of units, however, is within the allowable housing units and
population as identified in the City's General Plan. The increase in housing units and
population would not be substantial in that new public streets or new public services would
need to be created. In addition, the project would replace existing rental housing units with
ownership housing units; thereby, increasing the City's ownership housing units ratio
consistent with Policy No. 3.1 of the Tustin Housing Element of the General Plan. The
proposed project would not displace substantial number of existing housing, but rather
replace and add additional housing units.
Item c - Less than Significant Impact:
The project site is currently improved with sixty-five (65) apartments comprised of sixty-four
(64) two-bedroom units and one (1) one-bedroom unit. These units are rented at market rate
(not considered as affordable units) and the existing residents are on a month to month lease.
While there will be displacement of existing residents as a result of the proposed project, the
displacement would not be substantial nor necessitate the construction of replacement
housing elsewhere since the impact could be absorbed by the local rental market. Although
the project is not required by law to provide relocation assistance, the project would be
conditioned to provide a minimum of ninety (90) days (Real Estate law requires sixty (60)
days) to current residents to allow adequate time to find replacement housing.

Item a - No Impact:
The proposed project would construct ninety-three (93) condominium units. The proposed
project is in an existing urbanized area where fire and police protection are currently
provided. Although the project would increase the number of housing units within the area,
no new streets, public services, or infrastructure would need to be created.

14. RECREATION
Items a & b - No Impact:
The project would include a private community pool recreation area to benefit the residents
of the project. However, since the size of the pool area does not comply with the minimum
criteria for parkland dedication, the project would be conditioned to dedicate parkland
elsewhere or pay in lieu fees for parkland dedication in accordance with Section 9331 of the
Tustin City Code. The developer has indicated that they will pay in lieu fee to comply with
Section 9331 of the Tustin City Code.
While the residents of the project may use existing City's parks, the increased use of existing
parks would not be such that substantial deterioration of the facility would occur or be
accelerated, nor would the project include recreational facilities that would have an adverse
physical effect on the environment.
Mitigation MeasuresIMonitoring Required:
. Prior to issuance of a building permit, the applicant shall dedicate a minimum of .0065
acre per dwelling unit based on density of 18.64 dwelling units per acre for parkland or
pay fees in lieu of parkland dedication. The value of the amount of such fees shall be
based upon the requirements of Section 9331.d.3 of the Tustin City Code.

15. TRANSPORTATIONffRAFFIC
Item a - Less Than Significant Item b - No Impact:
The traffic analysis for this project is contained in a document prepared by Katz, Okitsu &
Associates (Exhibit 2 ). The project is anticipated to generate approximately 744 dail y
vehicle trips. This is an increase of 316 vehicles per day more than the existing land use. El
Camino Real, where the project is located is a four-lane street and has a capacity of 24,000
vehicles. Currently El Camino Real serves 11,500 vehicles per day. Adding 316 vehicles
per day to the existing level of service would bring El Camino Real to a total of 11,816
vehicles per day which is still below the maximum capacity. Therefore the increase of three
(3) percent to the existing level of service is considered to be insignificant. In addition, the
total trips from the site are not sufficient to warrant a traffic signal at this location.
In the AM peak hour, 62 trips are expected which include 16 trips entering and 46 trips
exiting the site. In the PM peak hour, 73 trips are expected which include 42 trips entering
and 31 trips exiting the site. This is an increase of 32 additional trips in the AM peak hour
and 35 additional trips in the PM peak hour from the current land use. The peak hour volume
of 46 outbound trips is less than the threshold value for minor street volume for the peak hour
traffic signal warrant.
In addition to the trip generation study, observations were done before and after school to
assess the interaction of the project with the adjacent Tustin High School. There is very little
interaction between vehicles entering and exiting the project site and vehicles to and from
Tustin High School in either AM or PM high school peak periods. However, re-striping the
existing paved median to provide a 75-foot left turn lane into the project would provide
sufficient room for vehicles to turn left into the project. Pedestrian traffic along El Camino
Real before and after school was also observed and was found to have little impact on the
ability of vehicles to enter and exit the existing apartments during those periods.
In conclusion, while the study finds that the traffic impacts of the proposed project have no
adverse effect on the surrounding street system, the study uses assumptions and
recommendations that tie to the project design and density. Therefore, should the project's
density or design be modified, a new or revised traffic study would be required.
Mitigation Measures/Monitoring Required:
. The applicant shall re-stripe the existing paved median to provide a 75-foot left turn lane
into the project.

The proposed project will not induce substantial population or growth wherein the project
will not result in changes to air traffic patterns, or conflict with adopted policies, plans, or
programs supporting alternative transportation such as bus turnouts or bicycle racks. The
project includes sufficient parking on-site including guest parking to comply with current
parking requirements for the proposed use. In addition, guest parking spaces are dispersed
through out the project to serve each building and to minimize congestion within specific
area of the project. As such, no impacts to parking are anticipated.

Items a. b & c - No Impact:
The project design, construction, and operation will comply with applicable regulations. The
project, by nature of its location and as designed, does not have the potential to: degrade the
quality of the environment; reduce the habitat of fish or wildlife species; cause a fish or
wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels; threaten to eliminate a plant or
animal community; reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or
animal; or, eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or

R.eceived (MON)AUG 23 200411:58
1.0 Introduction.
At the direction of Nevis Homes, LLC, Davy & Associates, Inc. has completed an
acoustical analysis of The Cottages Project in Tustin California.
The California Administrative Code (Title 24) as enforced by Tustin specifies
maximum allowable interior noise levels of CNEL 45 for all habitable spaces in
residential buildings where exterior noise from transportation sources exceeds CNEL
60.
Section 2.0 of this report contains the results of measurements and calculations of the
future exterior noise environment at the site to determine compliance with these
requirements. .
Section 3.0 of this report contains recommendations for complying with the Tustin
interior noise level requirements.
Section 4.0 of this report contains the requirements of the State Building Code
concerning ventilation. '
2.0 Exterior and Future Acoustical Environment
Environmental noise levels were monitored at the site in Tustin, California on August
18, 2004 between the hours of 4:00 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. The location of the site is
shown in Figure 1. Noise measurements were made at the south building line.
Noise levels at the site are dominated by traffic on the Rt. 5 Freeway and by traffic on
EI Camino Real to the south. No other significant sources of noise were noted during
the site visit.
Environmental noise -levels were measured with a precision integrating LD 820 sound
level meter that had been calibrated with a B&K 4230 Acoustical Calibrator
immediately prior to use. The sound level meter measures and displays the
equivalent noise level (LEQ), as well as the maximum and the minimum noise levels
during the measurement period. A copy ofthe analysis of the acoustical data is
attached to this report. .

Received (MON)AUG 23 200411:58
The data thus collected were analyzed to determine the CNEL level at the
measurement location. The CNEL value was determined by measuring the equivalent
noise level (LEQ) directly, and then calculating the equivalent noise level for each of
the other 23 hours in the day.1 This CNEL approach has been utilized extensively.
The accuracy of this procedure has been established with automatic 24-hour
measurements at the same location. The procedure has always been within
acceptable accuracy limits. The results ofthe monitoring and calculations are
summarized below in Table 1.
Table 1
Measured Ambient Noise Levels In dB

Section 3501.(c) of the State Building Code states the following:
Worst-case noise levels eìther existing or future, shall be used as the basis for
determining compliance with this Section. Future noise levels shall be
predicted for period of at least 10 years from the time of building permit
application.
CAL TRANS, Division of Traffic Operations publishes an annual traffic volume book
that contains previous traffic trends. The 2000 traffic volumes on the California State
Highway System Book (the latest edition available) lists an average annual increase
of 2.2% per year in annual traffic volumes for the years 1994 through 1999. Assuming
that this annual growth of 2.2% would hold for this site, it was projected that traffic
volumes would increase by a factor 1.24 by the year 2014. This traffic volume
increase over the next 10 years would resutt in a 0.9 dB traffic noise increase.
Therefore, the projected future year noise level is summarized in Table 2;

With an exterior noise level of CNEL 72.0, the buildings must provide an A-weighted
noise reductíon value of at least 27 dB to achieve an interior CNEL 45 value.
Standard construction consisting of 2x4 studs with R-11 insulation, exterior stucco,
interior gypboard, and standard glazing provides a minimum A~weighted noise
reduction of 20 dB. '
If all windows and glass doors shown in red high light on Figure 1 are glazed with STC
32 glazing, the noise reduction of this Building will be a minimum of 30 dB.
This means that with the use of standard construction and STC 32 glazing in all south
facing windows and glass doors, interior noise levels should not exceed CNEL 45.
Therefore, the Building will comply with the California Noise Insulation Standards as
enforced by Tustin.
STC 32 glazing can be provided with either 1/4" laminated glass or a dual pane
assembly with a 1/2" airspace. In either case, the glazing supplier should submit a test
report documenting the STC 32 rating. The test report should be prepared in an
independent, accredited testing laboratory in accordance with. ASTM E-90.

Roof ceiling construction will be roofing on 1/2" plywood. Batt insulation will be
installed in joist spaces. The ceilings will be one layer of 5/8" gyp board nailed
direct.
All exterior walls will be 2x4 studs 16" O.c. with Batt insulation in the stud
spaces. Exteriors will be exterior plaster or stucco. The interiors will be 5/8"
gypboard.
All windows and glass doors shown in red high light on Figure 1 will be glazed
with STC 32 glazing. STC 32 glazing can be provided with either 1/4" laminated
glass or a dual pane assembly with a 1/2" airspace. In either case, the glazing
supplier should submit a test report documenting the STC 29 rating. The test
report should be prepared in an independent,. accredited testing laboratory in
accordance with ASTM E-90. :
All other windows and glass doors may be standard glazing.
All entry doors should be 1-3/4 solid core doors with weather stripping seals on
the sides and top. Glazing in entry doors should not be accepted.
There should be no mail slots in the entry doors.

4.0 Ventilation Requirements
The California Noise Insulation Standards (Title 24) states the following paragraph
concerning ventilation:
"If interior allowable noise levels are met by requiring that windows be
unopenable or closed, the design for the structure must also specify a
ventilation or air-conditioning system to provide a habitable interior
environment. The ventilation system must not compromise the dwelling unit or
guest room noise reduction."
With windows open, typical noise reduction values will be in the 12 dB range. This
means that a ventilation system must be provided for all habitable rooms. This can
normally be supplied with an FAU (forced air unit) with a summer switch. Outside air
intake must be in compliance with Section 12.03.3 of the 1997 edition of the Uniform
Building Code.

limited Traffic Study for a Residential Project
in the City of Tustin
The subject of this traffic impact study is a proposed townhouse project located along El Camino
Real in the City of Tustin. The developer of the proposed project is Nevis Homes, of Arcadia,
California. The project is at 1361 EI Camino Real in the City of Tustin. The proposed project is
replacing 65 existing apartments with 93 new townhomes. The site will provide a total of 217
parking spaces. The project location is shown on Figure 1. The proposed site plan is shown on
Figure 2
The City is requesting a trip generation analysis to show the difference in trips from the site due
to the proposed development, an analysis of the on-site circulation, and access to EI Camino Real.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
El Camino Real has two travel lanes in each direction and a center turn lane running parallel to 1-5
in the vicinity of the project. The traffic volume on the street is 11,500 vehicles per day. Tustin
High School is adjacent to the project site on the northwest. There are commercial land uses at
the intersection of El Camino Real with both Redhill Avenue and Newport Avenue.
PROJECT RELATED TRAFFIC
The proposed project, located on El Camino Real north of Redhill Avenue, consists of a 93-unit
townhouse project. These facilities are expected to generate additional traffic volumes based on
established ITE trip generation rates as documented below.
Project Trip Generation
Trip generation is a measure or forecast of the number of trips that begin or end at the project site.
Allor part of these trips will result in traffic increases on the streets where they occur. The traffic
generated is a function of the extent and type of development proposed for the site.

Trip generation is generally equal to the traffic volume expected at the project entrance. The trip
generation rates are equivalent to the number of trips that start ,or end (in and out) at the project
site, and are specific by land use for a given time period (i.e. am peak hour). Trip generation rates
are expressed as a function of a given characteristic of the land use area (i.e. floor area, site area,
number of employees, or seating capacity. The rates are based on regression analysis, and are
derived from field observations from as many sources as possible. At each site, trips in and out of
site are counted, trip rate modifiers are identified and regression analysis is used to derive a "best
fit" for a particular land use. An equation is developed which calculate average trip generation rate
for the specific land use.
The project trips summarized below in Table 1 are based on trip generation rates provided by ITE
Trip Generation, 7th Edition with consideration of comparable trip generation rates for similar uses
in this region. This report is widely used in Southern California and indicates the probable traffic
generation rates for various land uses based on studies of existing developments in comparable
settings.
Existing Land Use Traffic
A 65-unit apartment complex currently occupies the project area. The trip generation currently
associated with the project site is also shown on Table 1.

Project Trip Generation
As shown in Table 1, the project is expected to generate approximately 744 daily trips. Of this
amount, 62 are expected to be in the AM peak hour, including 16 trips entering and 46 trips
exiting the site. There are expected to be 73 trips during the PM peak hour, including 42 trips
entering and 31 trips exiting the site. This is a net increase of 316 daily trips with 32 additional
trips in the AM peak hour and 35 additional trips in the PM peak hour.
PROJECT IMPACTS
Traffic impacts are identified if the proposed project will result in a significant change in traffic
conditions on a roadway or intersection. A significant impact is normally defined when project
related traffic would cause level of service to deteriorate to below the minimum acceptable level
by a measurable amount. Impacts may also be significant if the location is already below the
minimum acceptable level and project related traffic causes a further decline.

The project will have 744 vehicles per day going out onto El Camino Real. This is an increase of
316 vehicles per day above the existing land use. The resulting "NET Project Trips" are shown in
Table 1. The total trips from the site are not sufficient to warrant a traffic signal at this location.
The peak hour volume of 46 outbound trips is less than the threshold value for minor street
volume for the peak hour traffic signal warrant. A copy òf the Warrant is provided in the
appendix. Adding 316 vehicles per day on a street that is currently serving 11,500 vehicles per day
is a 3% increase. A four-lane street has a capacity of 24,000 vehicles per day. This additional traffic
will have little impact on EI Camino Real.
Observations were done before and after school to assess the interaction of the project with the
adjacent Tustin High School. There is very little interaction between vehicles entering and exiting
the project site and vehicles to and from Tustin High School in either the AM or PM high school
peak periods. Significant pedestrian traffic along El Camino Real before and after school was
observed. There was little impact on the ability of vehicles to enter or exit the existing apartment
complex during those periods. Construction at the comer of Redhill Avenue and EI Camino Real
seemed to have more of an impact on traffic along EI Camino Real than the high school or the
existing apartment complex.
As the vehicles turning left into the project on EI Camino Real have to stop in the existing
median, the existing paved median could be restriped to provide a 75-foot left turn lane into the
project. There is 297 feet from the proposed driveway to the driveway into Tustin High School.
This provides sufficient room to accomplish the restriping without disruption to traffic on EI
Camino Real.
On-site Circulation & Access
The project is proposed to access EI Camino Real at one location near the center of the site. The
existing apartment complex has two access points at the center and southeast end of the site.
One of the two existing access points is at approximately the same location as the access point on
the proposed site plan. The width of the access point and interior streets will provide the
necessary space needed for vehicles to easily enter and exit the project and to pass each other. The
proposed driveway has sight distance to comply with the Caltrans 7.5 second sight distance
criteria for a roadway speed of 50 mph or higher. The driveway is over 560 feet from the Red Hill
Avenue intersection and has sight distance over 600 feet to the west.
The project site plan was reviewed for internal circulation. All parking stalls are accessible, and all
parking areas comply with accepted design standards for stall and aisle width. We have no major
concerns over the current site plan.

Gate Requirements
The entrance gate must be designed to provide for a daily volume of about 744 vehicles. The
maximum hourly inbound service volume is 42 vehicles, occurring in the PM peak hour. There are
two lanes at the gate. One lane can be used by visitors and residents and the other lane by
residents only. The gate must be designed to allow for storage for vehicles waiting for the gate to
open, and for vehicles waiting behind them. There are two lanes of storage of at least 75 feet each
from the gate to £1 Camino Real. The storage requirement for the gate is calculated using queuing
theory formulas adapted for use at gate entrances. These formulas also require use of the
processing rate. The proposed system is expected to be a garage door opener system for residents
providing a processing rate of 8 seconds per vehicle. A keypad system would be used for guests
providing a processing rate of about 60 seconds per vehicle. There is sufficient room at the
entrance for guests using the keypad to not block residents entering the project.
Table 2 shows the probability of the queue of vehicles exceeding specific values at the proposed
gate. The table indicates that the expected queue will be zero most of the time and one vehicle
occasionally. The queue will rarely he more than two vehicles. A storage require~ent of two
vehicles is recommended. This will require a storage area of approximately 50 feet from the
security gate to the back end of the queue storage area.

Traffic conditions should be adequate with stop sign control and the exits provide adequate width
for one outbound and two inbound lanes, including room for guests to park while securing entry
without interfering with entering residents. As stated earlier in this reportl no sight distance
issues are expected. Sight distance is available for over 560 feet in each direction.
CONCLUSION
The City of Tustin is requesting a traffic analysis for a proposed townhouse project located at
1361 El Camino Real. The proposed project replaces 65 existing apartments with 93 new
townhomes. The project site will provide 217 parking spaces. The traffic analysis report shows
the difference in trips from the site due to the proposed development, an analysis of the on-site
circulation, and access to El Camino Real.
The project is expected to generate approximately 744 daily trips. Of this amount, 62 are
expected to be in the AM peak hour, including 10 trips entering and 46 trips exiting the site.
There are expected to be 73 trips during the PM peak hour, including 42 trips entering and 31 trips
exiting the site. This is a net increase of 316 daily trips with 32 additional trips in the AM peak
hour and 35 additional trips in the PM peak hour from the current land use.
The proposed project will be submitted to the City of Tustin, who will review the plan for
compliance with applicable City standards. We anticipate that any minor internal circulation or
parking issues will be addressed in conjunction with this review. Katz, Okitsu & Associates
recommends that the City find that the traffic impacts of the project have no adverse effect on
the surrounding street system for the future year.

Resolution No. 3993
(Vesting Tentative Tract Map)
RESOLUTION NO. 3963
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF TUSTIN RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY
COUNCIL APPROVE VESTING TENTATIVE TRACT MAP
16790 TO SUBDIVIDE AN EXISTING 4.99 ACRE PARCEL
LOCATED AT 1361 EL CAMINO REAL INTO ONE (1)
NUMBERED LOT FOR THE PURPOSE OF DEVELOPING
NINETY-THREE (93) RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUM
UNITS.
The Planning Commission of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
I.
The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A.
That a proper application for Vesting Tentative Tract Map 16790 was
submitted by Nevis Tustin, LCC., requesting approval to subdivide an
existing 4.99 acre parcel known as the southerly half of Lot 31, in the City
of Tustin, as shown on the map described as "Plat No.1 of the Ranchos
Santiago de Santa Ana and San Joaquin,n recorded in Book 5, Page 7 of
Miscellaneous Records of Los Angeles County, California, addressed at
1361 EI Camino Real into one (1) numbered lot for the purpose of
developing ninety-three (93) residential condominium units;
B.
That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for said map on
February 14, 2005, by the Planning Commission;
C.
That the proposed subdivision is in conformance with the Tustin General
Plan and the Multiple Family Residential (R-3) Zoning District, which provide
for the development of condominiums.
D.
As conditioned, the map would be in conformance with the State
Subdivision Map Act and the Tustin City Code Section 9323 (Subdivision
Code);
E.
That the site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed in
that the project is accessible through the City's current street system and
could be supported with existing transportation and public facilities;
F.
That the site is physically suitable for the proposed density of the
development in that the site will be developed with 18.64 units per acre
within a property that is zoned for a maximum of 25 units/acre;
G.
That the design of the subdivision or the types of improvements proposed
are not likely to cause serious public health problems in that the project has
Resolution No. 3963
Vesting Tentative Tract Map 16790
February 14, 2005
Page 2
been conditioned to comply with development standards of the City, Orange
County Fire Authority, and Orange County Health Care Agency;
H.
That the tract map or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure
fish or wildlife in their habitat;
I.
That Section 9331 of the Tustin City Code authorizes a dedication of park
land as part of the Subdivision Map. Based upon the proposed density of
18.64 dwelling units per acre, the applicant is required to dedicate a
minimum of .0065s acre per dwelling unit for parkland or pay fees in lieu
of parkland dedication. The value of the amount of such fees shall be
based upon the requirements of Section 9331.d.3 of the Tustin City Code;
J.
That circulation within the site is accommodated by a "T" shaped full width
private street and twenty-five (25) to thirty-one (31) foot interior drive
aisles which do not meet the requirements for private streets. Section 3.2
of the City's Construction Standards for Private Streets, Storm Drain and
On-Site Private Improvements authorizes the Building Official to approve
deviations from the private street standards. The Building Official has
reviewed and approved the following deviations: private drive width, inside
curb radius, and sidewalks requirements between garages.
K.
That as conditioned, the subdivider would be required to satisfy dedication
and/or reservation requirements as applicable, including but not limited to,
dedication of all required street and flood control right-of-way easements,
vehicular access rights, sewer easements, and water easements defined
and approved as to specific locations by the City Engineer and other
agencies.
L.
That as conditioned and recommended in the traffic study submitted in
conjunction with the project, the subdivider shall re-stripe the existing
paved median on EI Camino Real to create a 75-foot left turn pocket to
provide a more efficient access to the site.
M.
That the project involves a condominium project where there are
undivided interests in common areas such as parking areas, landscape
areas, drive aisle, and driveways and separate interests in space for the
units. Section 1350, et al of the California Civil Code authorizes the
creation of an association to set forth the restrictions on the use or
enjoyment of any portion of the common interest in a condominium
development. Consequently, the applicant is required to record a
declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions for the project.
