AT 14421 TO 14471 RED HILL AVENUE (NORTHWEST
CORNER OF WALNUT AND RED HILL AVE.)
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 Design Review 06-011 was submitted
by Sun-Cal Red Hill LLC requesting authorization to demolish 57
apartment units and construct a 75-unit condominium project
located at 14421 to 14471 Red Hill Avenue (APN 432-111-03 and
432-111-04);
B. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for said
application on March 13,2007, by the Planning Commission;
C. That the site is located in the High Density Residential (HDR)

such findings, the Commission has considered at least the following
items:

,
F. The project requires a 10 foot wide dedication in fee along Walnut
Avenue, which will remain open until future street widening is
implemented. The buildings along Walnut Avenue are designed
with balconies that provide protection over the front entries, offer a
usable exterior open space for the residents, and create a variety of
architectural features along the street rights-of-way. It was
determined that provisions of Tustin City Code Section 9271 U) can
be applied to the balconies allowing them to encroach a maximum
of three feet into the required front yard setback along Walnut
Avenue which results in a 22 foot setback from the current right-of-
way and 12 feet from the future right-of-way without compromising
the setback requirements from other structures. In addition, sound
attenuation is provided to make the balconies a usable outdoor
space for the residents.
G. The project includes dedication in fee along a portion of Red Hill
Avenue and Walnut Avenue to revise ownership of an existing
street with 33 foot wide highway easement as depicted on
Tentative Tract Map 17080.
H. That the applicant has requested approval of Tentative Tract Map
17080 in conjunction with the application for Design Review 06-011,
and findings and conditions of approval related to site design, street
design, open space and park site design, dedication of necessary
rights-of-way, and provision of necessary infrastructure improvements
have been included in Resolution No. 4055 recommending 'City
Council approval ofTentative Tract Map 17080.
I. That a Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted by Resolution
No. 4053 for the proposed development.
