J. That ZC 2025-0001, SUB 2025-0001, and DR 2025-0004 constitute a
"project" that is subject to the terms of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) (Pub. Resources Code §21000 et. seq.).
K. That pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public
Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.), the City of Tustin, as lead agency,

analyze all potential adverse environmental impacts of the Project and
corresponding Zone Change, Subdivision, and Design Review which together
are referred to as the "Proposed Project."

O. That as conditioned, the map would be in conformance with the State
Subdivision Map Act and TCC Section 9323 (Subdivision Code) in that:
1. The proposed VTTM 19390 and improvements are consistent with the
PCCB General Plan land use designation, ZC 2025-0001, DR 2025-
0004, the TCC, and the Subdivision Map Act.
2. The site is physically suitable for the type of development and
proposed density as the development of 145 residential condominium
units on an 8.5-acre parcel is within the allowable density of the PCCB
General Plan land use designation.
3. The design of the proposed subdivision and improvements are not likely
to cause substantial environmental damage in that the development is
located on an improved parcel within an urbanized area and any
potential environmental impacts can be mitigated to a level less than
significant, except for impacts to a historical resource for which a
Statement of Overriding Considerations was prepared and is
recommended that the City Council adopt in satisfaction of the
requirements of the CEQA.
4. The design of the subdivision or the types of improvements proposed
are not likely to cause serious public health problems, and the
development is in compliance with the Zoning Code and will be required

conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access

Control Board in that the development will obtain a sewer connection

collection and conveyance to the Orange County Sanitation District for
treatment and disposal.
7. That recommendations provided in the preliminary geotechnical
report would be implemented in the grading and foundation
improvements associated with the project.

ordinances, and policies in effect at the time the map is approved or
conditionally approved and is consistent with the proposed
development standards included with the adoption of the Planned
Community Residential zoning district (ZC 2025-0001).

Resolution No. 4537
Page 4
P. That the City's Public Works Department has reviewed the map and
determined that, as conditioned, it is technically correct.
Q. That the project meets the development standards of the proposed Planned
Community Residential (PC RES) zoning district, as would be established
with the adoption of ZC 2025-0001.
R. That TCC Section 9331d requires the subdivider to dedicate parkland or
pay an in -lieu fee of providing a parkland dedication.
S. That common open space in excess of what is required is not provided.
Pursuant to TCC 9331 d3, the applicant shall be required to pay a park in -
lieu fee for the entire parkland dedication of 42,318.54 square feet. The fee
would be based on the fair market value and the fee would be determined
at time of recordation of the Final Map.
T. That the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan Housing
Element Goal 1 in that the project would facilitate the provision of an
adequate supply of housing to meet the need for a variety of housing types
emphasizing locations near services and transit and supports State
Housing Law as implemented by the Regional Housing Needs Assessment
(RHNA). The project provides for 145 market -rate, for -sale residential units.
U. That the location, size, and general appearance of the proposed project, as
conditioned, is compatible with the surrounding area in that there are existing
buildings on the subject property and in the area of a similar massing and
scale. In addition, the architectural design and features are an enhancement
to the existing housing stock in the neighborhood. The proposal will not
impair the orderly and harmonious development of the area, the present or
future development therein, or the occupancy as a whole. In making such
findings, the Planning Commission has considered at least the following
items:
1. Height, bulk, and area of proposed structures.
2. Setbacks and site planning.
3. Exterior material and colors.
4. Type and pitch of roofs.
5. Size and spacing of windows, doors and other openings.
6. Towers, chimneys, and roof structures.

structures and possible future structures in the neighborhood and
public thoroughfares.
13. Development guidelines and criteria as adopted by the City Council.

Building Design. The project is composed of three-story
buildings with a maximum height of 40 feet and which include
attached townhomes designed in a Spanish architectural style
and detached cluster units designed in Farmhouse,
Craftsman, and Abstract Traditional styles. Varied rooflines,
articulated facades, trim, and a complementary palette reduce
apparent mass and provide visual interest. The design
complies with the heights, setbacks, and related development
standards to be adopted as part of the establishment of the
Planned Community Residential zoning designation.
Site Layout. Homes are organized around a central looped
private drive with townhomes fronting the north and west
street frontages and cluster homes located interior to the site.
Existing driveways on 17th Street will be removed, all vehicular
access is consolidated to a single entry on Prospect Avenue.
A 0.19-acre central recreational park anchors the plan.
Access and Circulation. Vehicular circulation is provided by the
internal loop drive connecting directly to each unit's garage and
on -site guest parking. The plan includes closure of the two 17th
Street driveways, installation of a new Class 1 off-street bike
path along 17th Street to enhance bike/pedestrian connectivity,
and improvements at the Prospect/17th Street signalized
intersection to accommodate the project.
Parking. Adoption of ZC 2025-0001 would establish a parking
requirement of two (2) enclosed garage parking spaces and
0.25 guest parking spaces per unit. The project would include
290 garage parking spaces and 40 guest parking spaces onsite,
for a total of 330 parking spaces.
Private and Common Open Space. Each home includes a
private entrance and at least 100 square feet of private open
space (yard, patio, or balcony), with some units exceeding 500
square feet. The project provides 46,131 square feet of
common open space for residents, anchored by a 0.19-acre
central recreational park with a gathering space, lawn, play
elements, seating, bicycle racks, and a walking path connecting
adjacent homes. Landscaping for both private and common
areas includes lawns, trees, and shrubs, and is designed to
comply with the City's Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance.
• Lighting. Proposed outdoor lighting would be typical of
residential uses and would consist of wall -mounted lighting,
pole -mounted lights, path lights/bollards, and landscape
lighting. All of the Project's outdoor lighting would be shielded
to minimize off -site spill and would be in compliance with

Resolution No. 4537

Wall and Fences. A six -foot -high screening wall will be
maintained along the eastern and southern property lines with
a minimum 8-foot-tall evergreen hedge at installation
(maintained to at least 15 feet at maturity) for privacy and
compatibility with adjacent single-family neighborhoods.
The Planning Commission hereby recommends that the City Council approve SUB
2025-0001NTTM 19390 and DR 2025-0004, authorizing the development of 145
residential condominiums on an 8.5-acre site identified as APNs 401-401-12, -13,
