CEQA Section 15270 states that "CEQA does not apply to projects which a public agency rejects or disapproves." RECOMMENDATION: That the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 4378, denying Residential Allocation Reservation (RAR) 201900001; Design Review (DR) 20170016; Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2017-025; and Lot Line Adjustment (LLA) 2017-00002 for a mixed-use project containing 249 residential units and 7,000 square feet of retail commercial. Chairperson Kozak informed the Commission and audience of the supplemental items Kozak received at the dais, which Included correspondence received from the applicant's attorney Nossaman, along with the City's response letter to Nossaman, from Woodruff, Spradling and Smart (WSS). He then turned to Ms. Binsack and Ms. Bobak for further direction on how the Commission should proceed. Efizabeth In response to Kozak's previous question, Binsack stated that the applicant wa Bfnsadk requesting a continuance of the Item to either March 26, 2019 or April 9, 2019. Staff did not think there was a need to continue the project for more than two (2) weeks. As noted in the City Attorney's response letter to the applicant's Agenda Planning Commission February 26, 2019 -- Page 2 of 7 attorney (Nossaman), notice was provided but staff does need to provide notice to the applicant, as well as the applicant's representatives in order to meet the March 12, 2019 deadline. This would allow adequate time for staff to prepare for a supplemental staff report, compile any public comments and respond to any other inquiries from the Commission and the public. She said there is adequate time to address the item at the March 12, 2019 hearing, Binsack suggested that the Commission should not receive any public comments this evening, if they were going to recommend a continuance. She also stated that It was not staffs Intention to provide a presentation because staff did not want the Commission to consider the merits of the project. For those individuals unable to be present at a future hearing date, Binsack stated they would accept comments (i.e. letter, email, or if they prefer to meet with a staff Planner, an interest list to be compiled, and will include the speaker forms given that evening). Staff could also provide a copy of the staff report to anyone that was interested. Binsack informed the Commission, for their consideration, if the Item was continued to March 12, 2019, the Commission could take advantage s of a presentation as well as a public hearing at that meeting, and if the Commission chose to do so, they could continue the item again, to April 9, 2019, Lois Bobak Bobak explained to Kozak that the Public Hearing item should be opened in order to continue the item to a date certain. She also stated that the noticing process would not have to be done again and would remain valid as long as the item is continued to a certain date. Bobak further explained that the formal written notice would be provided to the applicant and the applicant's representatives, as they requested, for the March 12, 2019 hearing date. 7:13 p.m. Opened the Public Hearing. Commissioner Gallager was concerned with the applicant's request for the March 26 and April Gallagher 9, 2019 continuance dates. He asked if the request was In order for the applicant to provide updated information or if the Commission would expect the same packet and same concept. Gallagher also wanted to know why the applicant was requesting a continuance. He also asked if the Commission could hear from the applicant to find out if they are able to provide updated Information within the timeframe or if the Commission would be in violation of the open discussion. Gallagher added that it would be helpful to hear from the applicant before the Commission makes a decision on the continued hearing date, Binsack In response to Gallagher's questions, Binsack stated it was not clear as to why the applicant requested new hearing dates and that it would be difficult to provide arrything substantially different than what was already provided to the Commission, other than the applicant may be responding to information that was provided In the staff report. Bobak Per Gallagher's last question, Bobak informed him that the Commission could ask the applicant why the continuance to a specific date, but since staff is not providing any comments, along with the public's comments on the merits of the project until the next meeting; the applicant should limit his comments to the date of the next meeting. Agenda — Planning Commission February 26, 2019 — Page 3 of 7 Pamela Ms, Pamela Sapetto, representing Irvine Asset Group, stated that the reason Sapetto the applicant and representatives asked for the April 9, 2019 hearing date is that they believe they have significant new information they can provide to th Commission that would assist in their deliberations, Including the project itse and the alternatives in the project. She requested the Commission' Indulgence to let them return with the item on April 9, 2019. Kozak Kozak asked Sapetto to explain the three (3) dates requested within the letter Including the applicant and their representatives' suggestion to continue the item to April 9, 2019. He also asked if there was more Information that the applicant and/or representatives need to develop. Sapetto In response to Kozak's previous question, Sapetto stated that the April 9, 2019 hearing date was Included in the last letter from their attorney, Nossaman to the City's Attorney, WSS, which is the date they confirmed would be preferred. She also stated that there is more information that needs to be developed. Chair Pro Thompson's comments generally Included: there being an expediency in this Tem matter, the challenges of continuing the item; if it is a substantially different Thompson package, then h would be a new application; and six (6) weeks would be problematic because the expectation from the audience is more expedient and that the Commission needs to be sensitive to that. i Commissioner Mason wants the project to move forward and was in favor of the March 12 Mason 2019 hearing date. She added that if there were something of a signlfica difference, the, process would have to be revisited. Kozak Kozak was also in favor of the March 12, 2019 date. He asked his fellow Commissioners if they would like to present a motion to continue the item to the March 12, 2019 hearing date. Mr. Nell Sherman, Vice President of the Tustin Meadows Community Association, spoke from his seat (in the audience) and then approached the podium stating his concern with the March 12, 2019 hearing date, since he has to attend a board meeting on that same evening. Kozak Kozak further explained to Mr. Sherman that If the item was to be continued to March 12, 2019, in order to consider any new Information from the applicant and 9 more time is needed, the Commission could request another continuance to a date certain. He suggested to Mr. Sherman that a representative attend the March 12, 2019 hearing date If he is unable to attend. Bobak sobak interjected into Mr. Sherman and Kozak's dialogue and informed the Commission that Mr. Sherman was getting into the merits of the application rather than the question of the continuance date. She reminded Mr. Sherman to only address the question of the continuance date. Thompson Thompson suggested the item be addressed at another public hearing date If order to make It more convenient for those audience members that cannot attend the March 12, 2019 hearing and to help the applicant. He suggested continuing the item to the March 26, 2019 meeting. Agenda -- Pianning Commission February 26, 2019 — Page 4 of 7 Mason Mason's final comments generally included: first major development, since they voted on the Red Hill Specific Plan; numerous discussions have already taken place; the item needs to be presented to the Commission as soon as possible; causing distress to others in the community; she stayed with the March 12, 2019 hearing date; and she asked staff to educate the audience on the process If the applicant submits any additional materials to the City. Binsack Per Mason's question on the process, Binsack stated the following: if it is a substantially different project, the applicant has to submit an entirely new application after withdrawing the original application; any minor modifications would be provided and then submitted to the Commission to identify those differences at whichever meeting the Commission recommends; everything is always public and staff would identify what those differences are; If the item is substantially different, staff would not be able to bring the item back to the Commission in two (2) weeks, one (1) month, or six (6) weeks; and if the item is substantially different, it would have to be re-routed to the various agencies and utilities for review and input. Mason Mason asked if the City received a substantially different project, would the item be pulled immediately and removed from the Planning counter. Binsack Per Binsack, if the applicant submits a substantially different project, City staff would have to make a determination of moving the current proposed project forward before the Commission, If the applicant did not withdraw the application or request an indefinite continuance. City staff is in a difficult position because they have already deemed the application "complete" which leads to other issues to address. Bobak Per Bobak, one of the reasons the Commission cannot consider a substantially modified project is because staff has given notice on the project which is the subject of the staff report presented that evening. If there is a substantial modification, staff would not be able to notify members of the public, far enough in advance, to give them the opportunity to come in and have meaningful input on the new application. Staff wants to make sure the public receives proper notification as to what the applicant is requesting. Kozak Kozak mentioned one important aspect, which is the public notice that has already been posted and if that public notice would remain effective for the March 12, 2019 meeting. He questioned if the further out the meeting is held, would the public hearing notice become less effective and would staff have to re -notice. Binsack Binsack further informed the Commission that as long as they continue to a date certain, that notice remains active, but whether or not it remains effective are two (2) different things (i.e. the public might lose track of the continuance date). Staff's Intent is, whatever meeting the Commission continues the project to, staff will re -post the notice at the property. Binsack added that approximately 2,500 notices were mailed to the public. Staff will re -post the notioe at the property, City's website and PaceBook page (the City will not post on Tustin Buzz — it is not administered by the City), including any other kxations that we formerly noticed, without sending the notice out to all of those 2,500 Agenda —Planning Cornmission February 26,2019— Page 5 of 7 Individuals. To the greatest intent possible, staff will let the public know and will send out a mass email to the interest list. Mason Mason asked if the City has the completed application, as the Commisslon ha reviewed, available for public review. She also asked if there are an substantial changes to the plans, when they would be available for review. Blosack Per Binsack, anyone from the public can review the completed application either on the City's website or at the Planning counter, She also added that if anyone from the public wants to meet with staff, they could meet with Ms. Remkowicz Regarding any substantial changes to the plans, the applicant has not yet provided any revised plans to the City. Binsack also stated that any changes to the plans given to staff would be made available at the Planning counter the same day received. Thompson After hearing further dialogue, Thompson stated that if information is important to those providing Input, it would be difficult if information came in the day of the next meeting. He suggested that perhaps if the meeting was to be postponed one (1) month, within three (3) weeks the applicant has to provide that information to the City In order to make available for one (1) week in advance to the public. Thompson felt it would b6 stressful to move the meeting two (2) weeks. Binsack Per Thompson's comments, Binsack stated that four (4) weeks is not a sufficient amount of time for staff to obtain substantially new information an 1 prepare another report to provide to the Commission. i Thompson Thompson asked if the idea is that whatever the cut-off date is, the public has at least one (1) week to respond, He felt that if the meeting was to be continued to March 12, 2019, there wodld not be enough time for the entire process. j Kozak Kozak asked what the March 26, 2019 Planning Commission agenda looks like. Binsack Binsack stated that as of now, the March 26, 2019 meeting agenda is fairly full. Mason Mason stated that this submission of this application was already deemed complete. She would like the Item to be presented at the March 12, 2019 Planning Commission meeting. Mason added that if there are significant changes to the plans, then there needs to be an entirely different conversation when that takes place. Gallagher Gallagher reiterated comments previously made by his fellow Commissioners. Whether new information comes in or not, remains relevant because if it is so significant that it changes the project, then It Is a different application. Per Gallagher, he was In support of continuing the item to the March 12, 201 hearing. Commissioner Jha's final suggestion was that staff obtain the audience's information to keep Jha them in the loop for those interested in being notified, Agenda -- Planning Commission February 26, 2019 — Page 6 of 7 Bobak Bobak Informed the audience of the speaker forms received that evening at the dais, She suggested that their email addresses be included in order to be added to the list of interested parties, Motion, It was moved by Mason, seconded by Gallagher, to continue the item to the March 12, 2019 Planning Commission meeting, Gallagher, Kozak and Mason were In favor.

ROLL CALL: Commissioners Gallagher, Jha, Kozak, Mason, Thompson PUBLIC CONCERNS: Kozak Kozak informed the members of the audience that the applicant for Item #3 withdrew his applications, therefore there would not be a presentation, but if members of the audience wanted to speak on that item, they were invited to address the Commission at this time. Ms. Joann Shelly, resident, voiced her coneem with the Red Hill project, which generally included: parking is already an issue in the, Tustin Meadows area; any new apartment project will impact surrounding neighborhood negatively (crime rate will increase); and traffic will be impacted near and around the Red Hill Avenue areas.

RECOMMENDATION: That the Planning Commission, as Historic and Cultural Resources Advisor, approve the nomination of 196 El Camino Real to the City's Commendation Program and forward the commendation to the City Council for recognition, Dove Presentation given. Binsack Binsack referred the Commission to the Tustin Preservation Conservancy's email correspondence, dated February 13, 2019. In response to the email, she noted the project is one of the first buildings of a more modern nature that was submitted for the commendation program. Per Binsack, It was not staffs desire to create a false sense of history, but to commend a building as an example of good infill development into the Old Town area. She added that the intent was not to mimic the architecture, but to complement the architecture for the Old Town area. The commendation program just happens to be the Historic Register and the Commendation Program. Binsack stated that in prior commendations, it just so happened that they were historic buildings, If the Commission recommends forwarding the commendation to the City Council, and they approve the commendation, it is proposed that the building would receive a plaque, The plaque would identify the Dei Rio building - 2014, but the building would not be placed on the City's historic register until presumably 2064. Thompson Thompson's comments generally Included: agreed with Binsack's previous statement; the building complements the area, empathized with the letter submitted; and he agreed It was appropriate to bring new buildings to the commendation program to complement the Old Town area. Mason Mason referred to the work already placed in the Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan (DCCSP). She made favorable comments to the work done with the Del Rio building, and how it "fits" in Tustin. Mason was also in favor of the commendation. Minutes —Planning Commission March 12,2019— Page 2 of 6 J 1 Gallagher Gallagher's comments generally included: the building is a good example for the DCCSP; the City's commendation program was established in order to recognize buildings that meet the City's vision; hopefully this commendation encourages future development to follow suit;. and he was in favor of the commendation. Kozak Kozak was In support of the commendation. He was in agreement with the comments his fellow Commissioners made. He also made favorable comments to the property owner and building. Binsack Binsack added that although the item was not a public hearing item, members of the audience were welcome to step forward to address the Commission on the item. Mr. Mark W711ken Mr, Mark Willken, resident, commented on the item: he asked who nominated the building and If there were any other modern buildings that received this recognition; he asked about the distinction between historic and modem buildings receiving plaques or if the plaques would be identical; he had no objection to the building being recognized, but suggested there needs to be a differentiation between the historic buildings and the newer buildings rather than collectively; and he asked the Commission to consider slightly different plaques to differentiate between historic and newer structures/buildings. Binsack To answer Mr. Willken's question, Binsack stated that City staff nominated the building. She added that all of the plaques In the program look the same, but the identifiers are different. How they are attributed are different (i.e. historic nature of the buildings could be different — the person that built the building, the person who lived there, etc.); and I approved the building will be identified on the plaque as the Del Rio building along with the year of construction. Thompson Thompson also commented on the plaques being different, but did not diminish the program or the commendation. He suggested staff look into plaque differentiation. Binsack Per Binsack, if it is the consensus of the Commission regarding the plaque differentiation, the Commission could make a re"mendation to the City Council with a modified plaque and staff: could explore alternatives. Mason Mason concurred with Thompson on dffFerentiating between the historic and newer building plaques. Kozak Kozak agreed with Mason on asking staff to look at afterriatives for differentiation and then bring back to the Commission for their consideration, but was coneemed with the commendation being held up. Minutes -- Planning Commission March 12, 2019 -- page 3 of 5 Binsack In response to Kozak's suggestion, Binsack informed the Commission that they could still make the recommendation to the City Council and propose that staff look at alternative plaques, which staff could bring back to the Commission as well. She added that it would not stop the commendation program going forward since staff would still have to order the plaques, which would take time to prepare the plaque. Motion; It was moved by Mason to forward the item to the City Council with the caveat that staff will look at visual distinction between historic and newer buildings, seconded by Kozak.

WALNUT STREET PASADENA, CA 91188 LOCATION: 2521 MICHELLE DRIVE ENVIRONMENTAL: This project is categorically exempt (Class 1) pursuant to Section 15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act, REQUEST: Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to authorize joint -use parking at an existing medical facility. RECOMMENDATION: That the Planning Commission approve Resolution No. 4381 approving CUP 2018-00017 to authorize joint -use parking at an existing medical facility located at 2521 Michelle Drive. Reekstin Presentation given. Gallagher Gallagher asked for clarification on Section 2.1 of the Conditions of Approval referencing the traffic study, which Identifies a need for 426 parking spaces with the portion of the 6,000 square feet expansion when there are currently 427 parking spaces available. He added that should the applicant return in the future for the expansion of the remaining shell space, the parking study states the applicant would need to build the parking structure within the existing parking lot while still maintaining 426 parking spaces, per Section 2.1. Gallagher also asked that during that period of construction, how the applicant would handle the loss of parking spaces. Reekstin Per Reekstin, the applicant could choose not to meet the full requirement code, and choose to use joint -use parking instead in the future, in order for the parking structure to not be as large, the applicant would need to go through the conditional permit use process. He added that the applicant may propose a multistory parking structure and would be able to retain a Jot of the existing parking underneath and additional parking above. During construction, which could be several months, the applicant would have to submit some type of plan to accommodate the parking before converting any of the space over. Currently, the applicant is using less than 300 of the parking spaces, but the interim conditions would need to be included in the parking study as well. Kayak Kozak asked that if the applicant should request a parking structure in the future, then that request would go along with a new parking study. Minutes — Planning Commission March 26, 2019 Page 3 of 7 Reekstin in response to Kozak's question, Reekstin stated that the applicant would need to look for parking on another site, if necessary. Gallagher Gallagher asked if staff was concerned If the applicant were to return, in the future, requesting to expand the parking. Binsack Binsack reiterated to the Commission that the item being presented at the meeting was the first step and not the next step. She added that when the applicant returns to the City with another application, the applicant would need to submit an overall plan to address new plans and it could require site mitigation in the temporary term (Le, busing, valet, or phasing). Binsack stated that the Commission would presumably have another opportunity to look at the master plan of the overall parking for the larger improvements when the time comes. Mason Mason referred to the City's standard on square footage when determining parking and medical office use and the use of warehousing space. She questioned the warehouse space being 27,000 square feet and asked if staff would still treat the requirement based on square footage versus use. Reekstin Reekstin confirmed Mason's previous comment and added that the parking requirement was allowed to be part of the storage rate versus a warehouse rate. He added that all of the parking that was required, for the occupied area of the building, was based on the Tustin City Code. The parking study does address other parking requirements for medical uses primarily and that other rates could be applied, but staff did not feel that it should be applied at this time since it is not necessary. Reekstin stated that in the future, when the applicant chooses to occupy the entire building, the applicant can use a new analysis and try to justify their position. 7:19 pm. Opened the Public Hearing Section. Ms. Gretchen Ms. Gretchen Siemers, applicant, addressed the Commission and asked if Siemers they had any questions. She thanked Reekstin and City staff for their efforts. Gallagher Gallagher asked the applicant if the request would create new jobs, Ms. Siemers Per Ms. Siemers, the proposed project will create new jobs, along with there being a high demand for primary care. 7:20 p.m. Closed the Public Hearing Section. Thompson Thompson made favorable comments regarding the item. Motion: It was moved by Thompson, seconded by Gallagher, to adopt Resolution No. 4381. Motion carried 5-0.

She would like the opportunity to engage with the community on certain items to provide an opportunity to allow the community to be vocal on either issues or opportunity. Dove Per Dove, depending on the Commission's ability to engage in training (i.e. lunchtime webinars, conferences, etc.) the Commission would have to complete six (6) hours of training in order to meet the requirements of the State Office of Historic Preservation. Binsack Binsack added to Dove's previous comments, which generally included: suggested the Commission expand on their training (i.e. change up training from prior year); staff would suggest appropriate upcoming training to the Commission; public outreach education (i.e. Historical Society and Tustin Preservation and Conservancy) and tours of Old Town (Totally Tustin); the goal of the City Council was public outreach and engagement (she referred to the work program within the staff report) which is a significant commitment and public undertaking; the Commission will need to identify what type of public outreach they will do (i.e. Bust Program); and the importance of collaborating with the Tustin Historical Society as well as the Tustin Preservation Conservancy. Gallagher Gallagher referred to the picture of the Hangar in the PowerPoint presentation. He thought the Hangars should be part of the Work Program or Integrate it within the Work Program, Birtsack In response to Gallagher's previous statement, Binsack mentioned the history on the Hangars along with the structural analysis on the southerly Hangar taking place for the last several years. She suggested the Hangar be on a future Planning Commission agenda in order to discuss the efforts Minutes — Planning Commission March 26, 2019 -- Page 5 of 7 Binsack of the Hangars, the closure of the Marine Corps, Air Station and the evolution of the Hangars. Kozak Kozak suggested the Hangars be part of the first presentation with recommendation of follow-up action, in the work program. Mr. Srian Mr. Brian Sjoberg, President of the Tustin Preservation Conservancy Sjoberg (TPC), voiced his concern over the qualification of the Commission acting as the Cultural Resources Advisory committee and suggested the residents of Tustin be appointed. He added that the committee should be a separate group other than the Planning Commission. Mr. Sjoberg read a section of the SHPO guidelines to the Commission. Gallagher Gallagher asked Mr. Sjoberg If he thought the 2019 Work Program being proposed was acceptable to him.

He would hope it would not just be a tour of Old Town but further training, Mr. Sjoberg also mentioned to the Commission of the TPC's meet and greet planned for May/June at the McChades House to meet the residents of Old Town. Kozak Kozak thanked Mr. Sjoberg for coming forward and his participation In Old Town Tustin. He asked that if Mr. Sjoberg had any suggestions with the Work Program, to please bring to City staff. Thompson Thompson asked for clarification participating in the local events (i.e. Home and Garden Tour, Chill Cook -Off) and if the Commission's attendance to the local events would qualify. He encouraged the Commission to find what works for them and their busy schedules. Binsack Per Binsack, in response to Thompson's previous statement, staff incudes all local events the Commission attends in the CIG reporting. She added that the local events In the CLG report were listed as "educafional", but were not viewed by others as such (i.e. 900, Anniversary of the City's Birthday). Binsack stated that attending tours and local events would be "above and beyond" what the Commission is required to do. She added that staff will ensure the Commission meets the requirements of the Work Program.

QUALITY ACT The Califomia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Workshop will include many aspects in understanding the role of CEQA on actions taken by the Planning Commission. The Workshop will cover the goals, purpose, framework, process and procedures, application process, and timeline of the CEQA. . Bobak Bobak introduced Mrs. Ricia Hager to the Commission, along with Hager's experience in teaching CEQA guidelines to various agencies throughout the county. Ricia Hager, Presentation given. WSS Mason During the presentation, Mason asked Hager about Indian burial grounds and If they would qualify for exemptions and if not, how would this be addressed. Hager Hager stated that AB52's consultation with Native American tribes requirement, requires the City to consult with the appropriate tribes and if the tribes request consultation with the City regarding that project, then City would have to meet before the City can approve the project, which is more of a procedural requirement Thompson Thompson asked Hager what would happen when a document (i.e. EIR) becomes outdated and regulations have changed. Binsack in response to Thompson's questions, Binsack stated that City staff would review the Initial study (list of impact areas) look at the existing document and review to see how relevant that document is with the action the City is going to undertake. If necessary, a supplemental or addendum may be necessary. i Mason Mason commended Ricia on the presentation. She asked who would absorb the cost of updates (i.e. EIRs) when a project is submitted to the City. Binsack Per Binsack, N an EIR has been prepared, and the City is the applicant, the City would absorb the costs. If a private entity comes forward with a development project, then the developer would absorb the costs. Overall, City staff needs to ensure the CEQA procedures are done correctly for the project and for the City. Nnutes-- Planning Commission April 9.2019— Page 4 of 6 1 1 Binsack added that whenever a staff report is presented to the Commission, staff identifies environmental analysis In compliance with the CEQA guidelines. Gallagher Gallagher referred to the EIR's that were completed for the Red Hill Specific Plan and the Downtown Commercial Core Specificil Plain and the formal process. He also asked Binsack if an EIR would automatically need an addendum. ' Binsack Binsack stated that the desire of both specific plans was to do a Program EIR. When individual development projects are submitted, staff will conduct an Initial Study and an evaluation to ensure the original EIR covered the project and if It did, then the Mitigation Measures that were identified would be included into the proposal. If not, then staff would need to evaluate and include or update that environmental document and add mitigation associated with that project's specific application. Binsack also spoke on the East Tustin Specific Plan's (aka: Tustin Ranch) Mitigation Monitoring Report, which generally included: the Mitigation Monitoring Report Program (MMRP) took place long after the final development project took place; the City was required annually to do an analysis to ensure that those mitigations and improvements were done In a timely manner and if they were not done, the City needed to Identify why they were not done, or why they were deferred; and she explained the reason for the annual MMRP for the Tustin Legacy. Hager Hager added that recently a case upheld a document that was 20 years old. Bobak Bobak also added that It would depend on how good the 20 year old document was and whether or not it analyzed all of the potential environmental impacts and they have not changed, and there are no new significant impacts that could occur from the project, then under CEQA there is no reason to do any additional environmental review because there are no additional environmental Impacts. Kozak Kozak added to Binsack's comments on the MMRP that the report has to do with the progress of the measures taken for the MMRP and their implementation. Thompson Thompson complemented Hager on her presentation and he suggested Hager prepare a one page outline showing the flow of the CEQA guidelines, as a handout. STAFF CONCERNS: Binsack Binsack again informed the Commission that staff will be presenting a prototype of the new plaque to the Commission at a future date.

CUP 2018-00015 for the establishment of joint -use parking as required by the PCESP for parcels that do not provide required parking within its boundaries. Hutter Presentation given, Gallagher Gallagher's commentslquestions generally Included: Resolution No. 48.80:— referenced two (2) different square footage amounts; the, Traffic Impact Study appeared to only address the proposed development, as is, and seemed to exclude approximately 69,000 square feet for future development; and he asked if the Commission approves the developer agreement, as it stands, could the developer move ahead with the expansion without doing an additional traffic study. Hutter In response to Gallagher's question, Hutter stated that 451,000 square feet is to document the maximum square footage that would be allowed within the planning areas, Wr7lkom Willkom added to Huttees, response stating that the entire'campus consists of four (4) planning areas and for each of the pla6ping areas, the Specific Plan identifies the development capacity. The City's Development Agreement ensures the maximum potential of development capacity with the entire campus, She added that currently, only 382,000 square feet are being utilized with the remaining square footage to be used for future development. Per Willkom, at the time of the future development, the developer would still need to return to the City with their proposal and traffic analysis. Thompson Thompson's questions/eomments generally included: he asked if the City is also a part of the application process, in reference to the parcel of land being abandoned; he asked if the parcel of land is part of1he conveyance or if the City would sell that land to the developer, parking surplus, parking stalls, and parking structure being reduced by one (1) foot, he asked why it would be acceptable to reduce the parking (i.e. concern with emergency vehicles getting onto the campus); parking arrangements with the shared parking — wanted to ensure it was adequately addressed; did CaiTrans concur with the traffic study?; and he asked about the traffic mitigation requirements, specifically the one intersection with a level of service "E" and why no mitigation was done for that. Huffer to response to Thompson's first question, Hutter stated that Parcel 6 of the project is currently owned by the City. The City would be considered an applicant since there is an entitlement proposed for that property. Per Hutter, the parking space stalls are shorter (from 19 to 18 feet) but the drive aisles are a minimum 24 feet, which is the requirement. She added that the applicant is not requesting a reduction to the drive aisles and the shared parking is addressed within the Conditions of Approval. Hutter stated the City is working with the applicant to finalize the CC&R's regarding the parking requirements to ensure the parking is being shared within the entire campus. Draft Minutes — Planning Commission June 11, 2019 — Page 6 of 14 Willkom In response to Thompson's question regarding the abandoned parcel of land, Willkom stated that the remnant parcel would be conveyed to Schoolspirst and'the real,estate transaction would be considered by the City Council. The proposed pr*ct is within the development capacity of the Specific Plan. IMllkom added that there are several traffic related Issues which have been analyzed when the City did the EIR for the entire Specific Plan. Certain studies were required of certain intersections to ensure that the level of service is compiled with, as it is identified within the General Plan and the study does indicate the developer is within the acceptable level of service with the condition of the traffic signal at the project's entrance. Sinsaok' Binsack provided further explanation with Thompson's cancem with the reduction of the parking stall standards. The difference is that it Is an open area versus a closed garage. She added that typically, the City's standard dimension in a closed garage is 10x20 and Is typical,when you do not have additional room to maneuver. Nishikewa In response to Thompson's question regarding "Level of Service E", Nishikawa stated that, within the traffic study, Leve! Service E had to do -with the entry Into the project off of Newport Boulevard. There win be a, traffic signal which will mitigate the level of Service E. Nishikawa added that costs will also be shaved with the .applicant since the City owns the property across the street.as well. Gallagher Gallagher also mentioned Parcel 6 (Newport and Del Amo Avenues) and a Master Sign Plan going forward. He stated that it would be an ideal place to have a "Welcome to7ustin" sign and would it need to be considered at that meeting before the parcel Is sold, Mkom Wilkom stated that staff did take a look at a "Welcome to Tustin" sign, and similar monumentation. Staff will be working with the applicant since the City has the ability to negotiate with the applicant to have them consider some of the signage for the City. Willkom added that signage will be included with the. negotiation of the parcel. 7.38 p.m. Opened the Public Comments Section.

Jha Jha recused himself from this item due to a competing financial interest, Demkowfoz Presentation given, Gallagher Gallagher referred to the traffic analysis and the comment in the Summary Findings related ;to the need for adjusting the signal timing and if it was a requirement for the City or the applicant. Nishfkswa In response to Gallagher's question, Nishikawa referred to the applicant's traffic study (Bryan Avenue & Market Way) and one of the requirements for the applicant is that they include a dedicated right tum on EI Camino Real, and is part of the project. Per Nishikawa, there is also a separate project proposal at the intersection of El Camino Real (ECR) and Tustin Ranch Road (TRR) and is part of the City's Capital Improvement Program and the Notice to Proceed is scheduled for June 17, 2019. We added that right turn pockets, on all four (4) directions at ECR and TRR. In addition, there will be two (2) left tum lanes from ECR onto TRR because currently there is congestion in that area; with these improvements, the City will take a look at the Impacts and whether the timing changes will be necessary on Bryan Avenue. If it is, Clty staff can control the timing since but wanted to see if the improvements will alleviate the concern of any back up traffic. Thompson Thompson asked if the Costco Tire Center access would be blocked by the queue line. His concern was that there would be an impact to the Costo Tire Center parking spaces. Thompson asked staff to explain further the 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m, business hours and how It works with the approyals that already exist for the project site and what the business hours for surrounding busipesses. Demkowicz Demkowlcz referred the Commission to the stacking pian within the PowerPoint presentation that Costco is proposing, She explained that the queuing would take place in the middle aisle where t1•tere are rows of trees, not the same drive aisle as the Costco Tire center, Demkowicz stated that Costoo was requesting the 5:00 a,m, to 10:00 p,m. business hours. Typical hours for other Costco stores in Orange County are 5:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. The other hours for businesses within the shopping center are 5:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m, with the exception of McDonald's which Is open 24 hours. Draft Minutes — Pianning Commission June 11, 2019 — Page 8 of 14 Mason Mason voiced her concern with the queuing causing congestion to the parking lot, referencing the Costco at the District. She asked if the queue set up would cause back up in the parking lot. Mason requested more assurances that the queuing Issue is going to be addressed so as not to be similar to the Costco at the District. Mason asked about Costco's current operating hours and wanted to ensure staff can re -address the hours of operation 0 there are issues with exceeding noise limits, and impacts of traffic patterns during rush hour. She also asked If there would be any audio or marketing monitors at the gas pumps. Wlllkom In response to Mason's concern, Wilikom stated that staff has worked extensively with the Costco Traffic Engineer to ensure no impacts. Willkom Invited the traffic engineer to the podium to explain further on the queuing program they are proposing. Ms. Neelam Dorman, Traffic Engineer with Kittelson and Associates local traffic engineering firm in Orange, responded to Mason's concern with the queuing. Her response generally included: the proposed project has 32 pumps versus the District, which has 22 which will move people a lot quicker through the queue's (i.e. the red light/green light system and the Costoo pay system); more queue space than at the District; she provided further explanation of the added right tum lane onto ECR so as not to interfere with street traffic; trying to create as much space on/off site to not interfere with any other movements that are not intending to come to the shopping center, the queue management plan does take into account closing out the north access to allow more space to allow an additional eight (8) cars of stacking; will have additional attendants directing traffic; should anything go wrong and there be any additional monitoring needed, Gostoo would provide it after site opening; Costco has a significant site in Temecula (30 pumps) which is a similar location next to their mall and is riot as close to a freeway on-ramp as the proposed location and queues decreased to 26 cars waiting at the Temecula location. Demkowicz Per Demkowicz, the current Costco store hours are 10:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. The applicant is requesting the hours of operation, for the gas station only, to be 5,00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. In response to Mason's question on the audio/marketing monitors at the pumps, Dernkowicz stated it was not Indicated on the applicant's plan, Willkom IrVillkom explained to Mason and the Commission that the City cad revisit any concerns with hours of operation and traffic, which are within the Conditions of Approval. 8.17 p.m. Opened the Public Comments.

Gallagher Gallagher's final comments after public input generally included: he agreed with a lot of the public's concerns, including the District's Costco; traffic toftm the 1-5 Freeway to Costco; the reason Costco is busy is because It Is providing a service to the Tustin residents; Wand when the Kmart building is in full service, was the parking considered?; safety concern with the deliveries — was that considered?; did not see a reduction in the levels of service. in the traffic study, but there is concern there will be (what percentage in Increase Is expected and does it reflect what is being projected?; in favor of shorter operating hours to start off with; and having a stronger back stop -- If everything the City was told by the applicant goes wrong, and the proposed Costco gas station ends up like the District's Costco, there should not be any question as to what the resolution is and what can be done to address R.

He referred to the Rutan & Tucker- letter and asked Demkowicz to clarify the number of acres on the project site in comparison with the PowerPoint presentation (i.e. is the Costco warehouse included?). Thompson asked Nishikawa to provide clarity as to the relevancy of the traffic engineering comments within the leiter from Rutan & Tucker, along with the email from Veronica Barker regarding traffic circulation and fuel truck delivery. He also Minutes -- Planning Commission July 9, 2019— Page 3 of 12 Thompson asked about the wait time signs ("similar to Disneyland") being added to the management pian, DemkoWcz In response to Thompson's question regarding the number of acres, ' Demkowicz stated that the overall project area is less than three (3) acres. The warehouse building is not park of the submitted application. Nishikewa In response to Thompson's question, Nishikawa referred to a section of the Tom Brohard and Associates letter where they insinuated that there was substantial evidence that the proposed project would have adverse traffic and transportation impacts that were not properly disclosed, analyzed, and mitigated. Nishlkawa did not concur with those statements, In terms of the Items mentioned within the Tom Brohard and Associates letter, he responded as follows: credit on the traffic volume from the Goodyear Tire Center that no longer exists, is Irrelevant as the applicant looked at the center being fully operational; with the project, the intersection still shows the LOS A or B, and that is what they are today; the TCC allows a LOS D and still would not require traffic mitigation; with the project, there will be additional traffic, but as far as the analysis and the LOS that one can expect, it is still right along the same capacity that we see today; in order to get to LOS D, for instance, 400 left tum trips from El Camino Real onto Tustin Ranch Road would need to be added than what is shown today; an additional 1,000 through trips from EI Camino Real crossing Tustin Ranch Road in order to get to LOS D at the intersection; Nishikawa again referred to the leiter that a weekend analysis, during peak hours, was not conducted (Table 6 of the traffic analysis); City staff analyzed the traffic volume (on streets and Intersections) in the traffic report, which is heavier on weekdays, especially during rush hour (7:00 to 9:00 a.m. or 4:00 to 6:00 p.m.); the queuing analysis is a different subject, which Is why Costco analyzed weekend hours because that is when traffic Is heaviest for them; right turn pockets that Costco is providing on El Camino Real, are not a required item by the City; the project will include Costco right tum pockets to facirdate through traffic; there not being enough room for the extra twelve (12) foot lane that the City wants, is not the case; the site has no physical Improvements needing to be made out and It can all be accommodated with striping on El Camino Real; the angled parking spaces near the fuel stations are for employee parking only; double stacking north of the fueling stations are also for employee parking only; If Management Plan 2 has to be implemented, it would only affect employee parking; pop-up ballards are not going to be an issue but there is an altemative (manual ballards); per the fuel delivery trucks comment from Veronica Barker email, the delivery trucks will deliver to the east side of the property, which is away from the fueling station and outside of the queue area; and in response to Thompson's comment on the wait time sign, Nishikawa mentioned the Frequency Operated Button (FOB) reader helping to speed up the process (and new technology). 7.•50 p.m. Opened up the Public Comments Section. I. Minutes — Planning Commission July 9, 2019 — Page 4 of 12 1 Mr, Sean Sean Henderson, representing the applicant, clarified the part of the Rutan & Henderson Tucker letter that stated that the site area versus the project area (grading/drainage plans identify disturbed area which is approximately 2,5 acres and is the actual project area) coincides and supports CEQA Exemption. Ms. Diane Diana Salazar, applicant, stated the following in general: she thanked staff Salazar, for their work efforts on the project; the goal of the project is to provide fuel applicant service at this location; currently there are 535 Costco warehouses in the U.S. and 470 of those warehouses have gas stations; Tustin Ranch Costco warehouse includes members from north Tustin, Cowan Heights, Lemoh Heights, grange Park Acres and part of Santa Ana; the Costco at the District Is serving the Tustin Ranch member base and 40 percent of the gas transactions are from the Tustin Ranch area; The District has circulation issues and trips would be reduced at that location with the construction of the Tustin Ranch site; the proposed project would help with the demand at the District and reduce trips, etc.; in response to the concerns at the last meeting, Ms. Salazar agrees with the revised Conditions of Approval; site congestion and parking availability —:the applicant and her team made two (2) site visits to the project site, and discovered the parking, where they are proposing to put the gas station, is underutilized (currently the parking is ten (10) percent In use); and an Independent study was completed in 2014 and 2018 on existing Costco warehouses in shopping centers, which showed that 46 percent of the members shopping at Costco made purchases the same day In the same shopping center and based on that study, members currently shopping at the Tustin Ranch Costco, plus the added traffic at the gas station, will likely make additional purchases in the Tustin Market Place and nearby businesses. Thompson Thompson requested clarification regarding the parking tot sharing relationship between the businesses through the CC&Rs and the maintenance (landscaping) being specific to the property line. Salazar Per Ms. Salazar, she confirmed Thompson's statement previously made. Thee is a reciprocal easement, as far as use, but each panel needs to comply with the CC&Rs parking ratio, which is five (5) per 1,000 which exceeds the City's parking ratio of 4.5 per 1,000.

Nlshikawa In response to Thompson's questions, Nishikawa stated, in general: the weekday analysis would approximate the worst conditions; weather does play a factor in the analysis; data taken during the holiday season means there should have been more traffic; the exiting concern from the gas station at the District Is that there is only one way out, which is onto Park Avenue and at the proposed location, the concern is the left turn movement leaving the gas station and returning to El Camino Real and the proposed project has a few exits (3 access points for major roadways); tuming movements — the City is in the process of doing Improvements at El Camino Real and Tustin Ranch Road, which has nothing to do with the proposed project and had to do with monies available when the Market Place was built long ago (adding right tum pockets in all four (4) Intersections and increasing left tum pockets and adding a second left turn lane from EI Camino Real onto Tustin Ranch Road In order to get to the freeway because that has been a problem area; and Costco funds the right turn lane going Into Costco.

Thompson Thompson's final comments generally included: the Commission Is not here to. consider the finances of the City of Tustin and it is not motivation for the Commission and their deliberation; if it affects other businesses and it is consistent with the general land use designation of the property, the property owner has the right to develop within the context of what that general plan zoning has been established and if there is consistency, then otherfacts have to be considered (some may not work -- i.e. quality of life); it is not within the Commission's purview with regard to gas station competition; the operating hours -- start out with hours more consistent with the shopping center; the shared parking arrangement and Costco should expand beyond the security line (anybody can pick up trash); should not count employee parking as part of the surplus; employee parking and surplus parking need to be darified; there should be signs post showing what the wait times are in order to reduce traffic impacts; and lastly, Thompson suggested some modifications to the appropriate conditions within the Conditions of Approval, Gallagher Gallagher's final comment was that the Commission should focus on the following Issues In general: traffic and queueing — deferred to the experts on the adequacy of the traffic study, referenced the Costco on Alton Parkway and not seeing any impacts, there are two (2) gas stations off of Red Hill Avenue near Tustin High School and did not see any issues there; human element and home values , FHA loan -- there already Is a gas station near the speaker who mentioned this; the size of the proposed gas station — it is not the largest gas station the applicant is trying to build, it is the best and by adding more pumps, tnsffic will flow quicker, limiting hours of operation could have an adverse effect (leave the hours of operation restriction to a future meeting if there are adverse impacts); security limitation (agreed with Thompson's comments); document the concepts previously stated by Thompson to use in the future; spoke of public comments and opposition argument; concurs with Thompson on added security; and save the Thompson's suggested concepts for consideration at a later date, should it not be as anticipated (i.e. queueing signs). Mason Mason thanked the residents for coming out and speaking. Her comments generally included: modification of the hours can, be changed and altered by the Community Development Director, if need be; plan 2 mitigation of the queueing -- make sure it does not impact the parking requirements by the business; she trusts that what has been addressed by City staff has demonstrated that there is no material impact to traffic, noise and pollution, and that the addition of a gas station will make it better, stated Thompson's concerns were valid but they need to be addressed in the future, if need be; Important to consider the worst case scenario — mitigation Included Is good; spoke of modifications suggested by Thompson, but did not feel the need to implement now, but acknowledge for future additional mitigation; she asked if the item was appealable; and she was in support of staffs recommendation, as is, with the modifications. Minutes -- Planning contmlssion .July g, 2019 — Page 10 of 12 Binsack Per Mason's comment on -the Item being appealable, Binsack confirmed that it is an appealable item and if not appealed, the Commission's determination is final. Kozak Kozak thanked the audience for coming out and sharing their comments and concerns. His final comments generally included: visited both sides of the entrance to the shopping center — right hand turn lane is a viable use of the property; his focus was the ability to focus on approving or disapproving the plan and is consistent with the General Plan and East Tustin Specific Plan; the proposed use does work in the site location; with regard to the LOS analysis, they have received and reviewed the LOS with a minor exception of A and B, with A being the highest most free traffic flow; the applicant comes up with two (2) management plans to mitigate queuing on-site and in-place in case needed; there is a dedicated left and right tum entrance from El Camino Real onto project site; staff has modified the recommendations to be consistent with other Costco warehouse service stations; he agreed with his fellow commissioners; and was also In support of the project. Binsack Reminded the Commission of the recommended action which was to adopt Resolution No. 4385, approving the item. Thompson Thompson moved to approve the item, with the following modifications: t) Security condition and the maintenance issue (trash pick-up and homelessness) is addressed and include the shared parking area. 2) The City still retains the ability to change the operating hours and that the proposed operating hours remain the same for now. 3) The traffic management plan be considerate of parking spaces that are blocked and signage to help patrons understand if the wait time is lengthy. Mason Mason was concerned with the respective property owner not maintaining the property which is their responsibility and it should not be the City's responsibility and Costco's. Kozak Kozak added that there are multiple property owners within the shopping center and they need to do a better job of cleaning and maintaining their property. Gallagher Gallagher added that he was concerned with adding a condition that could be a liability to one owner as to the condition of another owner's property. STAFF CONCERNS: Binsack Per Gallagher's last comment, Binsack stated that City staff shares the liability concern as well bt Thompson's concern. She added that Condition 2.7 and 2,8 will take care of some of the issues addressed (i.e. trash, homeless issue) which requires patrol of the premises. Cannot hold Costco responsible for those issues, but can hold the property owners responsible, as well going forward.
