COMMISSION REVIEW AND APPROVAL NO.805-Planning Commission to consider a Mitigated Negative Declaration, and a PUBLIC HEARING for a Socio- Economic Cost Benefit Study and consideration of a Commission Review and Approval to allow the construction of two separate industrial buildings totaling 140,380 square feet in combined square footage on a 7.6 acre site south of Park Avenue and east of Kansas Street within the I-P, Industrial District. Request submitted by THRIFTY OIL COMPANY. ( Project Planner: David Jump) Project Planner David Jump gave a brief PowerPoint presentation on the proposed project. Mr. Jump noted the project requires a 6/7 vote of the Planning Commission due to its impact on the intersection of Alabama Street and Redlands Boulevard. Mr. Jump stated the applicant agreed to install a traffic signal at the Tennessee Street/Park Avenue intersection to reduce impacts to the intersection. Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Pagel Director Jeff Shaw noted there was not a sufficient number of commissioners present to obtain the minimum six (6)votes relative to traffic, therefore final action could not be taken at this time. Chairman Webber opened the public hearing. Mr. Armando Enriquez, Director of Acquisitions and Development(Thrifty Oil Company), stated he was available to answer questions. Mr. Enriquez stated his company is in real estate development and they are long term holders of real estate. Commissioner Miller stated he did not feel the applicant's submittal is complete,therefore he could not make a decision on it. Commissioner Miller stated there is no floor plan shown. Mr. Enriquez stated he could submit a floor plan that illustrates the indentations on the building. Commissioner Miller stated there is a general statement on the site plan that shows the width of the aisles and parking places, although there are aisles on the plan that have no dimension shown. Commissioner Miller stated he is concerned with the truck movement diagrams shown on the plan. Mr. Enriquez stated typically a 140-foot driving radius is allowed however, his project has 170 feet between buildings. Commissioner Miller stated the plans show a 120-foot radius. Mr. Enriquez stated he felt this issue had been addressed, but he would take another look at the plan. Commissioner Miller asked for more detail on the canopy. Commissioner Miller stated the R. P. Wages project that was recently submitted has a nice feel about it and he did not believe the proposed project rises to that quality. Commissioner Miller stated the R. P. Wages project did not have a lot of change in vertical height but it had significant relief (3-4 feet) to the building. Commissioner Miller suggested some changes to the height of the proposed project. Mr. Enriquez stated he thought another drawing was resubmitted that shows changes to the building height. Mr. Enriquez circulated a color drawing to the Commission during their discussion. Commissioner Miller stated he thought two trash bins(one for standard waste and one for recycling) are required by the City. Mr. Enriquez stated he believes their trash enclosure accommodates two (2) bins. Commissioner Miller stated the enclosures shown on the plan appear to be eight(8)feet square, which would accommodate one bin only. Commissioner Miller asked if the rear side of the south building is visible from Kansas Street. Mr. Jump stated he did not believe it was visible because it faces south and is directly across from a lot that will probably be developed in the future. Chairman Webber stated the plan circulated by Mr. Enriquez was an improvement over the plan submittal. Commissioner Miller reiterated the need for aisle and planter width dimensions on the plan. Commissioner Laymon asked for the total number of truck bins. Mr. Enriquez stated there are eighteen (18)truck bins for both buildings and five (5) roll up doors for each building. Mr. Bill Cunningham stated the 6/7 vote is inconsistent with the growth management requirement standards of the General Plan. The 4/5 vote of the City Council is only appropriate in a designated area north of Redlands Boulevard. Chairman Webber closed the public hearing. Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 2 Chairman Webber stated the landscape plan complies with the normal requirements. Commissioner Osborne noted that the staff report referenced palm trees although he did not see palm trees on the site plan. Mr. Jump stated there are three (3) palm trees located on the corner of Park Avenue and Kansas Street. Commissioner Laymon stated she would not be able to attend the July 26th meeting. Chairman Webber recommended the proposed project be continued to the August 9th meeting. MOTION It was moved by Commissioner Macdonald,seconded by Commissioner Osborne,and carried on a 5-0 vote that the Planning Commission continue Commission Review and Approval No. 805 to the August 9, 2005 Planning Commission meeting. Commissioner Laymon left the meeting at 2:25 p.m. 3. MINOR SUBDIVISION NO. 285 - PUBLIC HEARING for the Planning Commission to consider a Socio-Economic Cost Benefit Study and a request to sub- divide a 4.77 acre parcel into three(3)parcels,two of which would be one(1)acre in size and the third parcel to be a total of 2.77 acres in the C-M, Commercial/Industrial District at 663 New York Street. Request submitted by NYS NORTH, LLC. ( Project Planner: David Jump) Project Planner David Jump gave a brief PowerPoint presentation on the proposed project. Chairman Weber opened the public hearing. Mr. Keene Matsunaga, representing NYS North stated they are currently in escrow to purchase 2 acres from the Elks Lodge. Mr. Matsunaga introduced Mr. Don Clem (Elks Lodge). Mr. Matsunaga stated there are no plans at this time to develop the property that is being purchased from the Elks Lodge. Mr. Matsunaga stated they are purchasing the property in an effort to help the Elks Lodge continue its existence. Mr. Don Clem, Elks Lodge, stated the two (2)acre parcel was unused land and it was a good time to sell the property. Mr. Clem thanked Mr. Jump for his work. MOTION It was moved by Commissioner Miller, seconded by Commissioner Macdonald, and carried on 4-0 vote that the Planning Commission approve the Socio-Economic Cost Benefit Study for Tentative Parcel Map No. 16497 as it has been determined that this project will not create unmitigable physical blight or overburden public services in the community, and no additional information or evaluation is needed. Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 3 MOTION It was moved by Commissioner Miller, seconded by Commissioner Macdonald,and carried on a 4-0 vote that the Planning Commission approve Tentative Parcel Map No. 16497 subject to conditions of approval, and based upon the following findings: 4. The proposed map is consistent with the City's General Plan and Municipal Code. The project has a General Plan land use designation of commercial/industrial and a zoning of C-M, Commercial-Industrial District and is consistent with both the General Plan and Municipal Code; 5. The site is physically suitable for the type of development. The site is large enough to subdivide into three (3) lots; 6. The site will be physically suitable for commercial/industrial development. The General Plan Land Use Designation of Commercial/Industrial and C-M, Commercial-Industrial District zoning both allow the future commercial or industrial development; 7. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The subject site is not identified as being within an area containing biological resources or within a wildlife corridor; 8. The design of the subdivision or type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems. This is a commercial/industrial project and is not likely to cause any serious public health problems, as no construction is proposed at this time. 9. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision; 10. That pursuant to California Government Code Section 66474.4, of the Subdivision Map Act the land is not subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965. The property is not in an agricultural preserve. C. ZONE CHANGE NO.415-Planning Commission to consider a recommendation to the City Council on a Negative Declaration and a PUBLIC HEARING for a Zone Change from C-4, Highway Commercial to R-R-A, Rural Residential Animals District for .43 acres of single family residential property located at 31588 Alta Vista Drive approximately 200 feet southwest of Outer Highway 10. Request submitted by DIANE SHORT. ( Project Planner: David Jump) Project Planner David Jump gave a brief PowerPoint presentation on the proposed project. Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 4 Chairman Webber opened the public hearing. Mr. Bill Hutchison, Gold Key Real Estate, stated the property has always been a residential use; at one time an antique business was being run out of the garage. Chairman Webber closed the public hearing. MOTION It was moved by Commissioner Macdonald,seconded by Commissioner Miller,and carried on a 4-0 vote that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council adopt the Negative Declaration for Zone Change No.415 and direct staff to file and post a"Notice of Determination" in accordance with City guidelines. It has been determined this project will not individually or cumulatively affect wildlife resources as defined Section 711.2 of the California Fish and Game Code. MOTION It was moved by Commissioner Macdonald,seconded by Commissioner Miller and carried on a 4-0 vote that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council to allow a change of zone for the property from C-4, Highway Commercial, to RRA Rural Residential Animals. D. TENTATIVE TRACT NO. 17429 - Planning Commission to consider a Mitigated Negative Declaration, a PUBLIC HEARING for a Socio-Economic Cost/Benefit Study, and a PUBLIC HEARING for a Tentative Tract Map to subdivide 4.16 gross acres into six(6)residential lots located on the south side of Camelot Drive, east of Marvin Avenue, in the R-E, Residential Estate District. Request submitted by KEITH McCANN. ( Project Planner: Asher Hartel) Project Planner Asher Hartel gave a brief PowerPoint presentation on the proposed project. Mr. Hartel summarized a letter received from surrounding residents listing six(6)concerns and he addressed the concerns: 1. The proposed houses are narrower and smaller than other lots in the area; the residents request that one house per acre be required. (The RE zone requires a minimum lot size of 14,000 square feet ; the three lots across the street are much bigger than what the zone requires) 2. The narrow lots would have to have front side garages; the residents prefer the houses have side or rear access garages. (The lots to the north and to the west have side entry garages, the remainder of the houses on Camelot Drive have standard front entry garages) 3. The size of the homes should be a minimum 4,000 square feet. (The proposed homes are 4,000-4,500 square feet) Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 5 4. The homes should be placed 100 feet back from the street. (The three houses across the street have setbacks that range from 60 feet to 90 feet; the tract to the west has front setbacks that range from 30 feet to 40 feet) 5. A sidewalk should be placed on the south side of Camelot Drive. (The sidewalk is a standard Public Works Department requirement and is included in the Conditions of Approval) 6. An additional street light is needed on the south side of the end of the street in the proposed cul-de-sac. (Currently there are three street lights on the north side of Camelot Drive directly across the proposed project) Mr. Hartel stated the proposed project meets or exceeds the RE District standards, therefore staff recommends approval of the proposed project subject to the conditions of approval. Chairman Webber opened the public hearing. Mr. John Wilhelm stated he took the opportunity to meet with 8 of the 9 residents who signed the letter of concern to see if he could work out a compromise. Mr. Wilhelm stated he explained his intention to build six (6) lots although the residents would prefer to see four (4) lots. Mr. Wilhelm stated he agrees with the residents on most issues; sidewalks, street lights, and size of the homes. Mr. Wilhelm stated that each home they build will be a custom designed home, with French country architecture. Mr. Wilhelm stated the smallest lot they propose is 50% larger than what is required for the zone. Commissioner Osborne asked Mr. Wilhelm if the lots will be sold and built individually. Mr. Wilhelm stated the developer is associated with Mallory Construction Company; they intend to build the six (6) homes at one time. Commissioner Osborne noted that the homes will be required to go through the Residential Development Allocation process. Commissioner Miller asked Mr. Wilhelm for his comment on the request to have the homes built 100 feet back from the front of the street. Mr. Wilhelm stated that he spoke with the homeowners and they felt that distance was excessive given that some of their existing homes are as close as 35 feet. Mr. Wilhelm stated the homeowners would like to homes to be staggered and not built in a straight line. Mr. Richard Dunbar, 1751 Camelot Drive, stated they have signed the list of concerns because they want to keep the neighborhood consistent with the surrounding homes and the proposed project increases the home density. Mr. Dunbar thanked Mr. Wilhelm for meeting with them and stated that Mr. Wilhelm proposed to decrease the number of homes from 6 to 5, although he does not have the authority to make that decision. Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 6 Mr. Dunbar stated that one of the neighbors who could not attend the meeting, Mr. Peterson, is concerned about the drainage and its impact on his property. Mr. Dunbar stated the surrounding community has underground utilities and he asked if the utilities would be placed underground. Mr. Wilhelm stated they would likely bury the equipment. Assistant Director John Jaquess stated that underground utilities are standard; the only time the utilities aren't placed underground is when you are dealing with high voltage lines. Mr. Jaquess stated he did not remember seeing any high voltage lines in the area. Mr. Hartel concurred. Mr. Dunbar asked for a response from the Commission to take back to Mr. Peterson relative to the drainage issue. Mr. Shaw stated there is a Water Quality Management Plan requirement for the proposed project along with conditions of approval. Mr. Hartel stated, as part of the Public Works Department review, the applicant would have to solve any drainage issues that could impact downstream or neighboring properties. Commissioner Cook arrived at 3:06 p.m. Ms. Marcia Dunbar, 1751 Camelot Drive, stated her primary concern is the lot sizes and number of homes. Ms. Dunbar stated the previous property owner indicated that the new owner would build four (4) homes on the property. Ms. Dunbar stated that one of the primary owners of the property is from South Dakota; she expressed concern that profits made from the property will not be reinvested into the city. Ms. Dunbar expressed concern that six homes will generate 12 additional cars on Camelot Drive. Ms. Dunbar thanked Mr. Hartel for his comprehensive report and she thanked Mr. Wilhelm for visiting with the homeowners. Commissioner Osborne noted that the three homes directly across the street from the proposed project (including Ms. Dunbar's home) have split zoning, R-E and A-2. Mr. Osborne stated the lots on the north side of Camelot Drive are zoned differently(split RE, Residential Estates and A-2, Agricultural District) from the proposed project on the south side of Camelot Drive (R-E, Residential Estate District). Ms. Dunbar stated they are aware of that fact. Mr. Jin Kim, 1741 Camelot Drive, stated the City of Redlands has a high housing reputation in the Inland Empire. Mr. Kim stated they would like the proposed development to conform with the surrounding area. Mr. Kim stated the proposed six lots do not fit the area. Ms. Tai Kim, 1741 Camelot Drive, stated the houses to the west of the proposed development were built approximately 20 years ago. Ms. Kim stated that six (6) narrow houses will devalue their properties. Mr. Tony Kwon, 1721 Camelot Drive, expressed concern that the six (6) homes will look "tight'. Mr. Kwon stated he put his life savings into his home and he is concerned that the Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 7 smaller lots will decrease the value of his home. Mr. Kwon stated the Orchard Park development, which is located close to their neighborhood, has a minimum lot size of 25,000 square feet. Mr. Bill Cunningham, stated it would appear from the map that the density grade is greater as you get to the end of the cul-de-sac. Mr. Cunningham stated if there is that much gradient on the property, the six (6) lots will have a good deal of space that is not particularly usable. Mr. Cunningham stated if the slope had been 15%,there would only be one house allowed on the property. Mr. Cunningham stated the slope is essentially 15% therefore, a reduction of one lot is appropriate for the project. Chairman Webber closed the public hearing. Commissioner Miller asked for clarification on the hillside ordinance. Commissioner Miller asked if the slope is 14.9°/x, should the number be rounded up to 15%? Commissioner Macdonald stated he is concerned about the 14.9% slope density, and asked if another engineering example could be made. Commissioner Macdonald asked how many homes would be allowed if the slope was determined to be 15.1%. Mr. Hartel stated it would require further analysis and a breakdown of the slope category. Mr. Hartel stated the average slope must be 15% in order to require further analysis. Commissioner Macdonald asked if the City has a civil engineer who could determine the average slope. Mr. Shaw stated the City could hire engineers to perform the analysis to ensure the analysis is done objectively. Shaw stated the current ordinance that is under consideration by the City Council allows the applicant to hire a registered civil engineer. Commissioner Macdonald asked how many homes would be allowed if the slope fell under a different slope density. Mr. Jaquess stated if the entire site had a slope more than 15%, the density would be one (1) unit per 2.5 acres. Commissioner Cook concurred with Commissioner Macdonald relative to the slope density, stating that six (6) lots seem very tight in that area. Commissioner Osborne stated he understands the concerns of the neighbors to the north of the proposed development. Commissioner Osborne stated in determining what a property is worth, the assessor looks at the sales prices of homes in the area. Commissioner Osborne stated that front garages are dealt with during the Residential Development Allocation (RDA) process. Commissioner Osborne stated he is impartial on the number of houses and he would support 5 or 6 houses. Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 8 Commissioner Macdonald stated the homes are proposed on a cul-de-sac where the homes across the street are considerably larger. Commissioner Macdonald stated the surrounding homes are on one (1) acre or more. Commissioner Macdonald stated the development to the south of this project will have access from Reservoir Road and is not a part of the development on Camelot. Commissioner Macdonald stated he believes four(4) homes are appropriate for the site. Chairman Webber stated he generally looks at surrounding properties, whenever a development is proposed, to determine if it fits in with the existing development. Chairman Webber stated the six narrow lots do not fit in with the small neighborhood in the cul-de- sac. Chairman Webber stated there should be a Condition of Approval requiring a minimum 4,000 square foot home. Chairman Webber stated he would not support the proposal that is before them. Commissioner Miller stated he has a hard time supporting the proposed development although it does meet the subdivision requirements. Commissioner Miller stated he believes the development would have a difficult time during the allocation process. Commissioner Miller stated that five (5) lots would enable an average lot width frontage of 120 feet, which is 20 feet more than the minimum. Commissioner Miller noted there are a variety of lot widths in the area. Commissioner Miller encouraged the use of the embankment which could be accomplished through the use of a retaining wall. Commissioner Miller concurred with Commissioner Macdonald. Commissioner Osborne stated the elevations would be different for five (5) lots. Commissioner Osborne stated he could support five lots. Chairman Webber, and Commissioners Cook and Macdonald supported four (4) lots, Commissioners Miller and Osborne supported five (5) lots. Chairman Webber advised the applicant that his project will be denied if action is taken at this time. Chairman Webber opened the public hearing. Mr. Wilhelm stated he proposed to the developer that five (5) houses be built instead of six (6) houses. Mr. Wilhelm stated that each of the property owners wanted to purchase the lot and build four (4) houses, and it did not work out economically, yet they are trying impose this requirement on the applicant. Mr. Wilhelm stated if five(5)homes are built,the price of the homes will increase; although they are willing to compromise at five(5)homes. Mr. Wilhelm stated he has a water runoff report for Mr. Peterson. Mr. Wilhelm stated his project is the buffer between the agricultural zone and a residential zone and they would have more freeway noise. Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 9 Chairman Webber asked the applicant if he would like to ask for a continuance and return to the Commission with a different proposal. Chairman Webber advised that there is a consensus for four homes. City Attorney Dan Mc Hugh stated that findings for denial of the project were not included in the staff report, therefore, it was suggested that the applicant take advantage of a continuance. Mr. Wilhelm stated the neighboring property owners agreed to a five-lot compromise and he agreed to return with another proposal. Commissioner Osborne stated he felt uncomfortable imposing the requirements of a different zone (A-2 District) on this project, which is the RE District. Commissioner Macdonald stated that Commissioner Miller's comments gave him some food for thought because there are side yard setbacks, slopes, and a side garage turnaround that cuts into the space available to build a home. Commissioner Macdonald stated he questions the 14.9 slope. Mr. Shaw suggested the project be continued to August 9th to allow the applicant time to revise plans for review by staff. MOTION It was moved by Commissioner Miller, seconded by Commissioner Osborne, and carried on a 5-0 vote that the Planning Commission continued Tentative Tract No. 17429 to the August 9th Planning Commission meeting. E. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 857 - PUBLIC HEARING for the Planning Commission to consider a Conditional Use Permit to allow conversion of a residential structure to establish a Chiropractor Office containing three exam rooms (3), a reception area, a consultation room, and an office located at 529 Cajon Street in the A-P, Administrative and Professional District. Request submitted by RICK CARLSON. (Project Planner: Joshua Altopp) F. PARKING MODIFICATION PERMIT NO.20-Planning Commission consideration of a Parking Modification Permit for a designated historic home being converted to a chiropractor's office at 529 Cajon Street in Historic District No. 3 (Early Redlands Historic and Scenic District), in the A-P (Administrative and Professional Office) District. Request submitted by RICK CARLSON. (Project Planner: Joshua Altopp) Planner Manuel Baeza gave a brief PowerPoint presentation on the proposed project. Chairman Webber opened the public hearing. Mr. Shan Mc Naughton, architect, introduced Mr. Rick Carlson,the owner. Mr. Mc Naughton stated an effort was made to have the project retain the character of the neighborhood and not have an adverse impact. Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 10 Commissioner Miller complimented Mr. Mc Naughton on his presentation, stating it was very clear and understandable. Chairman Webber requested clarification on the two trees located near the parking lot. Mr. Mc Naughton stated he wanted to plant sycamore trees; Chairman Webber concurred. Mr. Baeza stated the project would be conditioned to require sycamore trees. Mr. Jess Siglow, Co-Founder and author of Early Redlands Historic District, stated directly across the street from the proposed project, there are no cut stone curbs or driveways; he asked Mr. Carlson to keep from parking there. Chairman Webber closed the public hearing. Commissioner Miller asked that a condition of approval regarding replacement of the driveway with new scored concrete paving require it to be hand troweled or scored (as opposed to saw-cut). MOTION It was moved by Commissioner Osborne,seconded by Commissioner Macdonald,and carried on a 5-0 vote that the Planning Commission approve Parking Modification No. 20 subject to the following findings: 1. The proposed parking modification and use of the historic structure at 529 Cajon Street is necessary or desirable for the development of the community, is in harmony with the various elements and objectives of the General plan, and is not detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the zone because the site is designated by the City for office use and there are existing office uses on two sides of the property; 2. That approving the proposed parking modification and use will significantly improve the possibility that the structure will be preserved and maintained as a historic structure because the applicant has committed to make the necessary improvements to maintain the historic structure; 3. That the required parking cannot be provided without the approval of the requested modification because this 0.17 acre property has no space to provide any additional parking on-site; 4. That all on-site parking lots will function safely because the existing garage provides adequate parking space for one car; 5. That approval of the parking modification will not harm the integrity of the historic structure or the surrounding neighborhood because there is adequate space on Cajon Street for the provision of one off-site parallel parking space on this public street. Planning Commission Minutes of July 12, 2005 Page 11 MOTION It was moved by Commissioner Osborne,seconded by Commissioner Macdonald,and carried on a 5-0 vote that the Planning Commission approve Conditional Use Permit No. 857 subject to the following findings: 1. That the proposed development will not adversely affect the applicable land use plans of the City, because 529 Cajon Street is designated"Office"by the General Plan and is within the "Administrative and Professional Office" Zoning District. The proposed conversion to office use is consistent with the City's land use plans; 2. That the proposed development will not be detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, because conditions of approval from various City departments require any necessary improvements; 3. That the proposed development will comply to the maximum extent feasible with the regulations of the City's General Plan, the applicable zoning district and the City's development standards because current standards have been applied to the project conditions of approval; 4. That the proposed development is appropriate at the proposed location because both the General Plan and Zoning District provide for office use at 529 Cajon Street with the addition of Condition of Approval 14 to read: Sycamore trees shall be used for the proposed new deciduous trees shown adjacent to the parking areas, and the addition of Condition of Approval 15 to read: Scoring for proposed concrete shall be hand troweled and not saw cut.
