ITEM 4: TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO.99-176/CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO.99- 44/VARIANCE NO 99-28/NEGATIVE DECLARATION NO.99-13 (WOODWIND COMMERCE INDUSTRIAL PARKI APPLICANT/ PROPERTY OWNER: Thom Falcon, Woodwind Commerce Park, LLC, 11845 W. Olympic Boulevard, Suite 1200, Los Angeles, CA 90064 REQUEST: TPM: To permit the subdivision of approximately 4.6 acres into four (4) number lots and one (1) letter lot. CUP: To permit: 1) the construction of a 97,686 square foot industrial complex with four (4) buildings on the 4.6 acre site; 2) office area over ten percent of the gross floor area which requires additional parking; 3) development on a site with a grade differential greater than three (3) feet between the high and low point prior to rough grading; and 4) retaining walls up to a ' height of four (4) feet and topped with a six (6) feet high block wall. VAR: To permit the required on -site five (5) feet perimeter landscape area in the parking lot along the rear of the project to be provided off - site on the adjoining property presently developed with a mini -storage facility. LOCATION: 7612 Woodwind Drive (south side, east of Sampson Lane) PROJECT PLANNER: Ricky Ramos Ricky Ramos, Staff Planner, displayed site plans and photographs stating the purpose and location of the request. Staff stated that the surrounding use is industrial, the Zone is General Industrial, and the General Plan Designation is Industrial. Staff stated that the site is currently used for RV storage. Staff stated that the lots comply with the ordinance in size and width except for a deviation in the lot size for one parcel, which is permitted by ordinance subject to approval of the development plan. Staff expressed support of the request as it complies with the General Plan Designation and Zoning Ordinance (except for the landscaping variance), and is basically an extension of the character of the already established industrial area. Staff stated that the variance is being requested because the adjacent mini -storage building has six feet of undeveloped property, and allowing the variance will maximize the use of the property, as well as eliminating any potential eyesore. Staff stated that a negative declaration was prepared and is recommended for approval together with the TPM, CUP, and the Variance. ZA Minutes 02/02/00 16 (OOZM0202) V, F L THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED. Bill Burdett, 6292 June Drive, a tenant in opposition to the request, stated that he was only recently made aware of the project and wanted to know where the current motor homes were to be relocated. Mr. Burdett expressed concern over the fact that no other facilities appear to be available that can accommodate them. Thom Falcon, 1501 Westcliff Drive, Suite 260, Newport Beach, the applicant, gave a brief history of the application process, expressed concern for the current tenants' situation, and stated that as a courtesy to the tenants they are researching relocation possibilities for the tenants. Wendy Ballard, 15461 Capri Circle, a tenant in opposition to the request, expressed concern over the closure of the current motor home storage facility and questioned where the tenants would relocate. Ms. Ballard suggested relocation assistance from the applicant. THERE WERE NO OTHER PERSONS PRESENT TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST THE REQUEST AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. Mary Beth Broeren, Zoning Administrator, asked Mr. Falcon what the timing for the project is and Mr. Falcon stated approximately 90 days in the best case scenario. Mr. Falcon requested flexibility in the covenant for the parking and staff agreed to work with the applicant on this issue. Ms. Broeren addressed the concerns of Mr. Burdett and Ms. Ballard and explained that the property owner does have a right to change the use of the property. Ms. Broeren stated that the City does not have a legal right to require the applicant to relocate the tenants; however, Ms. Broeren offered assistance by encouraging the applicant to work with the tenants on this issue. Ms. Broeren stated that she was going to approve the request with clarification to the findings and conditions as follows: 1. Negative Declaration Finding No. 1: To be changed by staff to reflect that "no comments were received." 2. TPM requirement, add that the dimensions shall be added to the tentative map. Ms. Broeren stated to Mr. Falcon that the condition regarding the covenant can be addressed. TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO.99-176/CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 99-44/VARIANCE NO. 99-28/NEGATIVE DECLARATION NO. 99-13 WERE APPROVED BY THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR WITH THE FOLLOWING MODIFIED FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL. SHE STATED THAT THE ACTION TAKEN BY THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR CAN BE APPEALED TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION WITHIN TEN (10) CALENDAR DAYS. ZA Minutes 02/02/00 17 (OOZM0202) FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - NEGATIVE DECLARATION NO.99-13: I y li 1. The Negative Declaration No. 99-13 has been prepared in compliance with Article 6 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. It was advertised and available for a public comment period of twenty (20) days. There were no comments received during the comment period. 2. The project as proposed and modified by standard conditions of approval avoid or reduce the project's effects to a point where clearly no significant effect on the environment will occur. 3. There is no substantial evidence in light of the whole record before the Zoning Administrator that the project, as mitigated through the conditions of approval for Tentative Parcel Map No. 99-176, Conditional Use Permit No. 99-44, and Variance No. 99-28, will have a significant effect on the environment. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO.99-176: 1. Tentative Parcel Map No. 99-176 for the subdivision of approximately 4.6 acres into four (4) number lots and one (1) letter lot is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Element designation of I42-d (Industrial — Maximum 0.5 Floor Area Ratio — Design Overlay) on the subject property, or any applicable specific plan, or other applicable provisions of this Code, except for any variances approved concurrently with this application. 2. The site is physically suitable for the type and density of development because it is located in an existing industrial business park and will be an extension of the character of the area. The subject parcels are of sufficient size as required by code which permits smaller dimensions for new parcels with an approved development plan. 3. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements will not cause serious health problems or substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The project does not contain fish or wildlife or their habitat. The project as proposed and modified by conditions of approval will not cause serious health problems or substantial environmental damage due to its size, proposed use, and location in a well -established and urbanized industrial area. 4. 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 unless alternative easements, for access or for use, will be provided. All necessary easements will be provided with the consolidation and subdivision of the site and development of the project. ZA Minutes 02/02/00 18 (OOZM0202) FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO.99-44: 1. Conditional Use Permit No. 99-44 for: a. the construction of a 97,686 square foot industrial complex with four (4) buildings on the 4.6 acre site; b. office area over ten percent of the gross floor area which requires additional parking; c. development on a site with a grade differential greater than three (3) feet between the high and low point prior to rough grading and; d. retaining walls up to a height of four (4) feet and topped with a six (6) feet high block wall. will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood. Based upon the conditions imposed, the project will comply with the General Plan and Zoning requirements except for any variances concurrently approved. The project will improve the subject site with a modern and aesthetically pleasing development with attractive landscaping, architectural design, and site layout. Adequate parking will be provided for the additional office space. The proposed grading will terrace the site to maximize compatibility with the area. The retaining walls up to a height of four (4) feet and topped with a six (6) feet high block wall are located along the interior side property lines of the project site which serve as the rear property lines of the abutting parcels and will therefore not be visible from the public right-of-way 2. The conditional use permit will be compatible with surrounding uses because the subject site is located within an established industrial park and the project is an extension of uses found in the area. The proposed conditional use permit will comply with the provisions of the base district, other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance, and any specific condition required for the proposed use in the district in which it would be located, except for any variances approved concurrently. The project meets or exceeds all minimum development standards including setbacks, building height, floor area, parking, and landscaping percentage. 4. The granting of the conditional use permit will not adversely affect the General Plan. It is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of I42-d (Industrial — Maximum 0.5 Floor Area Ratio — Design Overlay) on the subject property. In addition, it is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General Plan: a. Provide for the timing of industrial development coincident with the availability of adequate market demand to ensure economic vitality. (Objective LU 1.1) b. Achieve a diversity of land uses that sustain the City's economic viability, while maintaining the City's environmental resources and scale and character. (Goal LU 7) ZA Minutes 02/02/00 19 (OOZM0202) c. Achieve the development of industrial uses that provide job opportunities for existing and future residents, as well as the surrounding sub -region, and generate revenue for the City. (Goal LU 12} �t d. Require that new and recycled industrial structures and sites be designed to convey visual interest and character and to be compatible with the adjacent uses, considering the: (Policy LU 12.1.5) 1) Architectural design treatment of all building elevations; 2) Use of landscaping in open spaces and parking lots, including broad landscaped setbacks from principal peripheral streets; 3) Mitigation of noise, odor, lighting, and other impacts. e. Require that multiple tenant and large-scale sites developed for light industrial uses be designed with the following considerations: (Policy LU 12.1.6) 1) Siting of buildings around common pedestrian walkways and public plazas; 2) Development of pedestrian walkways, arcades, and/or other visual elements to interconnect individual buildings; 3) Use of common compatible architectural design; 4) Installation of elements defining the key entry points and activity locations. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - VARIANCE NO.99-28: i 1. The granting of Variance No. 99-28 to permit the required on -site five (5) feet perimeter landscape area in the parking lot along the rear of the project to be provided off -site on the adjoining property presently developed with a mini -storage facility will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and under an identical zone classification. The project will still provide the required percentage of landscaping on -site even with the proposed variance. 2. Because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property, including location and surroundings, the strict application of the zoning ordinance is found to deprive the subject property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under identical zone classification. The adjoining mini -storage development includes a six (6) feet wide strip of land that is currently undeveloped. Approval of the variance will allow the developer to take advantage of this undeveloped land by landscaping it thereby eliminating a potential eyesore. 3. The granting of a variance is necessary to preserve the enjoyment of one or more substantial property rights. It will allow the developer to maximize the use of the subject property while simultaneously assuring that the undeveloped strip of land on the adjoining site will be maintained so as not to become an eyesore. 4. The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to property in the same zone classification. The project will still comply with the minimum landscaping percentage required on -site. The required perimeter landscaping visible to the public ZA Minutes 02/02/00 20 (OOZM0202) will be provided as required by code. An easement will be recorded on the adjoining property to assure that the proposed off -site landscape area will remain in perpetuity. 5. The granting of the variance will not adversely affect the General Plan. It is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of I42-d (Industrial — Maximum 0.5 Floor Area Ratio — Design Overlay) on the subject property which permits the proposed industrial development. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL — TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO.99-176: 1.
