CRA ITEM(X-) COUNCIL ITEM() MEETING DATE: May 11,2006
SUBJECT: DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES—SENIOR HOUSING PROJECT
FUNDING REQUIRED: YES (X) NO 0
At the Agency meeting of October 27,2005 the Agency entered into an agreement with
Corporation.for Better Housing(CBH)to construct a 120 unit senior housing complex
and a new senior center. At the time of the agreement the capital improvement fees
were anticipated to be$ 897,400. At the meeting of April 27,2006,the City adopted a
new capital improvement fee ordinance increasing the fees for residential and
commercial development.
Under the new fee structure the senior housing project will be required to pay
$1,457,877 in capital improvement fees, an unanticipated increase of$560,477. The
increased capital improvement fees was not a budgeted item in the original pro forma
and the Agency and CBH propose to split the added fees 80% Agency($448,381); 20%
CBH($112,095). This additional funding from the Agency will require that the
Agency adopt the attached resolution authorizing an increase of$448,381 for the
additional fees. The additional funding will come from the 20% low moderate housing
fund.

PUBLIC COMMENT
Ruben Campos, Construction Liaisons with Caltrans in San Bernardino, gave information
on an upcoming project that will be taking place late this summer. The Devore 2
Construction Project will include I15 from Sierra Avenue in Fontana through Devore to
South of the Kleghorn Road in the Cajon Pass. They will be replacing deteriorated pavement
and adding a truck diamond lane in the north bound direction. This project should be
completed by Winter 2007. Most of the work will be conducted at night. They will have
more detailed information at a later date. They just recommend that people plan ahead when
they travel. He reported that they will have updated information on their website continually.
You will also be able to view real time traffic on the site and they also have a Fast Pass,
which is an information sheet that gives information that can be e-mailed regarding closures
and what to expect. Their public affairs department will be having press releases regularly.
Patricia Farley, 12513 Michigan, expressed her concern with the fast pace of who is buying
what and who is paying what and what the City is spending to help purchase property and
the help that they are giving Jacobsen Family Holdings. She would like the City Officials
to stop supporting Jacobsen.
Rita Schwark, 21952 Grand Terrace Road, stated that she is against Lowe's coming into
Grand Terrace. She heard that Fiesta Foods will be moving into the Stater Bros. warehouse.
She feels that the City should have a say with who occupies that facility. She feels that the
City will have problem with swampers if Lowe's comes into Grand'Terrace.
Bill Hays, 22114 DeBerry Street, questioned why when Mr. Jacobsen's second time
extension expired on the 17"' of this month for him to own all of the property and have all
of the tenants signed are you going to go ahead with the Towne Center Project. The deadline
has passed for Mr.Jacobsen. He questioned why they are still going ahead on a dead project.
He questioned when the Towne Square Center Project is going to become a private
development, he feels that it looks like a land swap for RDA owned land for Mr. Yasin's
land. He questioned if this is a private development then why are tax payers funds being put
at Mr. Jacobsen's disposal. He feels that this never was a private development and that the
revenue will never go to the City but to the RDA. The majority of the funds that Mr.
Jacobsen's is investing are ours not his. He stated that the vote on eminent domain was
pulled from the agenda. He feels that the Council doesn't want to vote on the use of eminent
-domain until the last minute,however,intend to vote on it but not in front of the whole town.
i
Council Minutes
April 27,2006
Page 3
If not voted on in public he would like each of the Council Members to tell the community
tonight that they will vote against the use of eminent domain on Jo Stringfield and will they
go on record saying that they will vote no. He stated.that if they ignore this question or
refuse to answer they will have a safe presumption that you intend to vote for it but not in a
timely fashion. The Negative Declaration is still on the counter in the City Hall asking for
.the use of eminent domain on Jo Stringfield and should have been removed if there is no
intention on using eminent domain.
Brian Phelps, 22857 Wren Street, urged the Council to amend the fireworks ordinance to
include the dates of June 281h to July 4'for the sale of fireworks and to keep the discharge
dates the same. They feel that the more sales that they make the more taxes that the City will
make, which helps offset the cost of the enforcement that will be done this year and the
following years. The fund-raisers help to keep the League going. They feel that the problem
is the illegal fireworks not the Safe and Sane.
J
Patricia Farley, 12513 Michigan, expressed her concern that a Negative Declaration was
placed on the counter and today is the deadline for making comments on it. People have
been making comments all along about their concerns but she wants it on the record that she
is formally complaining that this is a specific plan it's large and it includes proposals like
Lowes,which requires CEQA evaluations,E1R,there is going to be a massive problem with
y� trucks, pollution, safety and transportation and damage to roads. She feels that the
declaration is not legal and is not acceptable. If it is ever approved it should be taken to
court. She pointed out that Mr.Schwab mailed letters threatening eminent domain so anyone
that develops on this property is contaminated with the unfair taking of property. If Stater
Bros. wants to build a new store they should get the land by themselves legally and not ask
the City to obtain it for them so they can pretend that they are not taking someone's home.
If anyone takes property through eminent domain she wants the business boycotted and feels
that this should be promoted and made very clear to those businesses. She feels that the
location of Stater Bros. is great and that the owner of the current property has agreed to
enlarge it to what Stater Bros. needs and feels that is what they should do.
ORAL REPORTS
5A. Committee Reports -None
COUNCIL REPORTS
Councilmember Hilkev, expressed his concern with what Rita Schwark said about the old
Stater Bros Warehouse and requested that staff look into that. The property just east of
Grand Terrace is going to be a housing development with %z acre lots, it will create more
traffic on Barton Road. He questioned if we have any input on the traffic issues.
i
Council Minutes
April 27,2006
Page 4
Community& Economic Development Director Gary Koontz, responded that staff hasn't
seen a traffic study yet. He has requested large scale grading plans he will have our traffic
engineer look at it. He feels that they are on top of it.
Councilmember Hilkey, stated that there are three issues that have never been settled. One
is the widening of Barton Road next to Hill Top and also access to Westwood and Mohave _
Drive. He wants to make sure that there is no access at all on Westwood. '
I
Community & Economic Development Director Koontz, stated that staff made that very
clear and based on what they have seen there isn't a connection.
Councilmember Garcia, requested that Building & Safety Director Richard Shields tell
Council about'the poles coming up the hill.
Building& Safety Director Richard Shields, responded that they are Edison support poles
and they are set all the way down to Loma Linda. They are going to be replacing high
i voltage lines and they need those poles to support the voltage lines before they go up. They
are temporary.
Councilmember Garcia, questioned if they will be closing the roads.
Building & Safety Director Shields, responded that he believes so.
Councilmember Garcia, questioned if we will be notified of the closures.
Building& Safety Director Shields, responded that he needs to get more information.
Councilmember Garcia, requested that when staff receives the information to please place
it on our website. She questioned the Observation and Palm Project and how long it will
take.
Building_& Safety Director Shields, responded that the project is being done by Riverside
Highland Water Company and that he will look into how long the project is going to take.
Councilmember Miller, attended the first Annual Inter-Communities Ken Hubbs Classic,
which was a flag football game between Colton High School and Terrace Hills Middle
School. He reported that there was a big turn-out. He has a plaque and will present it at the
next meeting. On May 22, 2006 at 7 p.m. there will be the first meeting of the Traffic
Mitigation Committee, which he is a member of. The meeting will be an open forum and
they want input from everyone. He stated that he is not speaking for the Council, he is
speaking for himself,that he has always said that he will not take Jo Stringfield's home by
eminent domain.

Mayor Pro Tern Cortes,reported that rain or shine at 7:30 a.m. sharp is the Grand Opening
of the Sav-on Drug Store and everyone is invited to attend.
Mayor Ferr6,attended the training exercise that was put on by the City and the Grand Terrace
Emergency Operations Committee and the San Bernardino County Fire Department Office
of Emergency Services. She has confidence that the City has a plan in the even of an
emergency. A very special thank you to Vic Pfennighausen and JoAnn Johnson for all of the
work that they have done to get everything in place. She feels very fortunate to have
volunteers that work so hard to make Grand Terrace a safe place for our residents.
Councilmember Hilkey, referred to an article that stated that we are going to get the signal
light sequencing along Barton Road and a new signal light at the intersection of Barton Road
and Honey Hills. This is a trade off because of the delay of the 215 widening and Grand
Terrace is getting hit with a lot of traffic."He stated that he wouldn't want anyone to vote on
something without the details. There are no details in front of the Council and they have
never been asked to purchase Jo Stringfield's property. He is not going to be in the position
where anyone tells him t6make a decision until he has those details.
Councilmember Miller, stated that there are now two left turn lanes going south on Barton
Road.

Walter Eeds,Greystone Group,reported that theyprepared the additional exhibit based upon
the discussions at the last Council Meeting. He is hopeful that the exhibits are clear and that
he will be happy to answer any questions.
i Councilmember Hilkev,expressed his appreciation of the clarity on the front of Mt.Vernon.
The question he had before was how the fences line-up with existing property lines. He
stated that on the north side there is an apartment complex and they have a solid block wall
and questioned what will happen with that wall.
Walter Eeds, responded that the wall will stay. He stated that the south side has plans to
build.a wall adjacent to the existing wall and believes the same for the north side,however
he feels that the existing wall can be utilized.
I
Councilmember Hilkev, wanted clarification on what type of fencing will be on the north
side.
Walter Eeds,responded that on the north side the existing wall will be used.
I
Councilmember Hilkev,expressed his concern with the possibility oftagging and questioned
if staff is happy with the proposed fencing.
Community & Economic Development Director Koontz, responded that the issue is that
there is already a retaining wall and if you place additional block on top it will be a big
concrete wall., Staff is taking the position that Council wants to see heavy landscaping in
front of the walls that will screen it from taggers as quickly as possible and they will make
sure that it happens. Staff is comfortable with the fence.
Mayor Ferr6 opened the public hearing for discussion, there being none she returned
discussion to the Council.
I -
Councilmember Garcia, stated that after looking at this project she has a problem with the
backyards facing Mt. Vernon.
Community& Economic Development Director Koontz; responded that during the initial
review process they discussed reverse frontage. The issue is that the,more they looked at it,
when you drive down the street you have the apartments where you see the sides and rears
of apartment all along the side. Here you will see a small patch of front yards that no one
will ever use because they are on Mt.Vernon. In their opinion it is better to put a block wall
there aim the house inside so that it is part of the total community plus there is a sound
barrier.. They really feel that this is the better way to do this project.
Councilmember Miller, can see why Councilmember Garcia has her concern,however,he
i

feels that the proposed project is probably the best as it is. He questioned if the developer
owns the land or are they in escrow.
Walter Eeds, responded that they are in escrow.
Councilmember Miller,stated that the property is covered in weeds and it really needs to be
taken care of.
Mayor Pro Tem Cortes, stated that she can see what Councilmember Garcia is saying,
however, she also feels the project is best as it is proposed.
Councilmember Garcia, she questioned what can be done to regulate utility cabinets.
Community&Economic Development Director Koontz,responded that utility cabinets are
regulated by the utilities. If there is a way staff can work with the utility companies and
agencies he will. He stated that the current utility cabinet shown on the plan is an existing
utility cabinet that belongs to SBC.
Councilmember Garcia, she'stated that there are people out there looking to make the
cabinets less visible.
Community&Economic Development Director Koontz,stated that they support making the
cabinets less visible. The more that can be put underground the better.
Councilmember Garcia,confirmed that there will be no new utility cabinets for this project.
Building & Safety Director Shields, responded that just meter pedestals for landscape
irrigation, which would be approximately 2 %2 feet wide and 3 feet tall. It would be more
than likely covered by landscaping. Edison will regulate which type of meters can be used.
Councilmember Garcia, questioned if Edison takes care of the graffiti on the cabinets.
Building& Safety Director Shields, responded that the City takes care of the graffiti.
Councilmember Garcia,questioned if the City can regulate what type of materials are used
for the cabinets.
Building & Safety Director Shields, responded that the materials are approved by an
electrical outfit that approves all of the cabinets. There are different types of cabinets and
Edison approves the ones that can be used in their right-of-way.
Councilmember Garcia, stated that there are some cities that are on the leading edge of this

' SUBJECT: REDLINING 290 FT OF CURBING IN FRONT OF 12269
MICHIGAN AND 22114 DE BERRY
NO FUNDING REQUIRED (X).
BACKGROUND
The City of Grand Terrace received several complaints over the(past few months regarding vehicles
parking in front of 12269 Michigan and 22114 De Berry. The parked vehicles are obstructing the views
of resident's while they exit their driveways onto Michigan creating a traffic danger.
Please see the attached map for specific details.
The City's Traffic Engineer reviewed the situation and agreed that red striping needs to be added on the
east side of Michigan at least 200-300 curb feet north`of De Berry.
Letters were sent out to the property owners of 12251, 12269 Michigan and 22114 De Berry on April
19t', 2006 requesting approval of the red-lining in front of their homes.
The homeowners at 12269 Michigan-Mr. Larry Leathers and 22114 De Berry—Mr. Bill Hays have
agreed in writing to allow the city to redline the curb. Mr. Donald Farley representing the property at
12251 did not agree to the proposal.
RECOMMENDATION:
STAFF RECOMMENDS COUNCIL TO ALLOW THE CITY MAINTENANCE STAFF TO PAINT A
RED ZONE FROM THE NORTH EAST CORNER OF DE BERRY ON MICHIGAN TOWARD
BARTON ROAD, 290 FT, NOT INCLUDING THE PROPERTY AT 12251 MICHIGAN.

BACKGROUND:
' On June 24, 2004, the City Council entered into a contract with the County of San
Bernardino and the City of Colton for the construction of a traffic signal and a left turn
extension at the corner of La Cadena Drive and Barton Road. Since that time,the City of
Colton has completed an annexation on a portion of the project area located in San
Bernardino County. San Bernardino County Public Works Department, along with the
City of Colton Public Works Department and Grand Terrace Public Works Department
have agreed to amend the original contract making the City of Colton the lead agency in
the construction of the modifications and traffic signal.This combined agreement between
jurisdictions will require that the original contract be amended and signed by each
jurisdiction involved.
The total project cost is estimated to be $380,000.00. San Bernardino County cost is not
to exceed$150,000.00,which includes prior costs incurred by the County for preliminary
engineering,right of way, and the purchase of signal poles. The City of Colton's share of
the project cost is estimated at$160,000.00,and Grand Terrace's share of the project costs
is not to exceed$70,000.00,as was agreed too on the original contract attached as Exhibit
"A."
The new contract Exhibit `B" deletes Sections 1.2 through 1.8 which placed San
Bernardino County as the lead agency providing plans, permits, etc. The City of Colton
will' now be responsible for the items deleted. There are no changes in .the amended
contract for Grand Terrace.

FUNDING REQUIRED: ( ) NO FUNDING REQUIRED ( X )
SUBJECT: Appeal of Planning Commission's approval of SA-06-02, V-06-01, and
E-06-02 for the construction of a two-story commercial/industrial
building on a 2.4 acre site for ESSCO Electric.
RECOMMENDATION: Deny the appeal and uphold the decision to approve the
project.
Background: On.April 6, 2006, the City Planning Commission held`a public hearing for
Site and Architectural Review No. 06-02, Variance No. 06-01, and Environmental Review No.
06-02 for the construction of a two-story commercial/industrial building.for ESSCO`Electric.
ESSCO seeks to expand its facility as a result of increased sales while remaining in Grand
Terrace. They have acquired approximately 2.4 acres on the south side of Commerce Way,west
of Michigan Street. A copy of the original staff report, conditions of approval, and resolution for
approval and draft minutes of the April 6, 2006 meeting are attached.
The Planning Commission held a public.hearing, took public,testimony, and unanimously
approved the project. On April 17, 2006, an appeal was filed by Raymond Johnson.for the
Citizens for Responsible and Open,Government (see attached). The document-attached to the
appeal was submitted to the Planning Commission during their hearing. The following is a
response to the issues raised in the appeal.
1. Project exceeds square footage for Planning Area 1.
No maximum coverage is identified-in the Planning Area 1 requirements.
2. Minimum right-of-way should be 44 feet.
Condition#4 of Public Works conditions requires an additional 4 foot dedication
that is reiterated in Condition 14.

3. Building height exceeds 25 foot maximum.
Guideline 2f allows for a maximum height of35 with approval of a variance by
N the Planning Commission.
4: 'Project does not meet the requirements for a sound wall'along the north property line.
F.
An 8-foot high concrete wall is proposed on the north, east, and west sides of the
I site for security and screening. The adjacent industrial building to the south
further serves as a sound wall. All operations areas are located on the west side of
the site facing the interior of the OAC and the-freeway.
5. The walls are not according to the design specification of the Specific Plan.
The Specific Plan calls,for an 8 foot high wall made of concrete with a cap and
E pilasters. The project's proposed wall is 8 feet high and-made of concrete with
" pilasters. Staff believes that the wall design is compatible with the OAC design
I requirements. This is a transition area with pre-existing commercial industrial
uses with varying design concepts and features. Condition 17 requires the
f preparation of a fencing plan for review and-approval by the Community
iDevelopment Director.
6. Project does.not comply"with OC EIR mitigation measures.
a. No traffic study or traffic mitigation"fees.
The traffic engineer has written a letter indicating that the project will not result in
a traffic impact. Condition#1 of the Public Works conditions requires payment
of all Traffic Mitigation and Circulation fees. Also Condition 31 requires the
developer to pay all appropriate traffic impact fees.
b. No acoustical analysis.
It was determined that the size of the project, its general location and the presence.
of the adjacent industrial project to the south serves as adequate noise mitigation.
Condition 15 requires the applicant to comply with the City Noise Ordinance. As
noted in response 5, the site is screened by a new 8-foot wall and adjacent
industrial buildings.
C. No burrowing owl study.
The site was currently graded and fully disturbed. The potential location for
burrowing owls is along the County Flood Control channel -
d. No mass grading of the entire site.
The site has been previously graded and is separate from the main undeveloped
are of the OAC.
a
7. Project does not comply with:
a. Air Quality or Noise mitigation measures.
The project has been determined not to result'in any traffic impacts (Traffic
Engineer letter) and does not generate mobile emissions. It is a pre-existing use
within the OAC. Traffic and associated air quality issues will be similar to those
already present at the facility. Noise has been addressed under comment 6b.
b. Geology or Soils requirements
The site has been previously graded. Under the Public Works required documents
for final plan check is included a soils report (Page 1). See Condition 23.
C. Hydrology and water quality requirements.
The Public Works final plan submittal requirements include a hydrology study,
Water Quality Management Plan, and Erosion Control Plan. The site plan
includes a drainage detention basin that will be used for drainage control and
water quality purposes. See Conditions 20 and 30.
d. Paleontogical requirements.
The site has been previously graded and fully disturbed. Under these previously
disturbed conditions, the presence of recoverable paloentological resources is very
questionable.
8. Project will result in the exceedence of the developable area of Planning Area 1.
There is nothing under the Planning Area 1 requirements that limit the
developable area of a project.
9. The landscape plan is not consistent with the OAC guidelines.
Condition 12 requires compliance with the OAC landscape guidelines.
10. The proposed use is inconsistent with the permitted uses within the CG land use
designation.
The underlying zone is CM that permits these types of uses. PA 1 of the OACSP
specifically calls out wholesale trade similar to those already near by. ESSCO
was a pre-existing permitted use.
Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council deny the appeal and approve Site
and Architectural Review No. 06-02, Variance No. 06-01, and Environmental Review No. 06-02.

The proposed project consists of approximately 20400 ft.2 of warehousing, 6000 ft.2 of offices,
and 2000 ft.2 of"will call". On a daily basis, the project is estimated to generate 180 vehicle
trips. 18 trips will be generated in the a.m. peak hour, and 22 trips will be generated in the
p.m. peak hour. The project is not considered to generate a significant quantity of trips to
warrant preparation of a traffic impact study.
I have no additional comments concerning this project.

Evaluation of Enviroomental'Impacts:
1) A, brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are
adequately supported by the information sources,a lead agency cites in the parentheses
'following each question. A"No Impact"answer is adequately supported.if the referenced
information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one
involved(e.g.the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A"No Impact'answer should
be'explained where it'is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards(e.g.
the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific
screening analysis).
2) All answers must take account of the whole action involved,including off-site as well as on-
site,cumulative as well as project-level,indirect as well as direct, and construction as well
as operational impacts.
3) "Potential Significant Impact"is appropriate if there_is substantial evidence that an effect is�
significant. If there are one or more "Potential Significant Impact" entries when the
determination is made, and EIR is required.
4) "Potential Significant Unless Mitigated Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of
mitigation measures has reduced an effect from"Potential Significant Impact"to a "Less
than.Significant Impact." The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and
briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level(mitigation measures=
from Section XVII,"Earlier Analyses,"may be cross-referenced).
5) Earlier Analyses may be used where,pursuant to the tiering,program EIR, or other CEQA'
process, an effect-has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration.
Section 15063(c)(3)(D). Earlier analyses are discussed in Section XVII at the end of the
checklist.
6) Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information
sources for potential impacts (e.g., general plans, zoning ordinances). References to a
previously prepared or outside document should,where appropriate,include a reference to
the page-or-pages where the statement is substantiated. A source list should be attached,and
other sources used or individuals contacted should be cited in the discussion.

L and Use and Planning. Would the proposal:
a) Conflict with general plan designation or zoning? ❑ ❑
(Source: General Plan Categories Map; and Zoning
District Map—The proposed use is allowed in the
"Planning Area No: 1'of the OAC".)
b) Conflict with applicable environmental plans or ❑ ❑ ❑
policies adopted by agencies with jurisdiction over the
project? (There are no known agencies where the
proposed project would cause a conflict.)
c) Be incompatible with existing land use in the vicinity?
(Zoning District Map,,Zoning Regulations, City Zoning ❑ ❑ ❑
Code)This project is permitted by right in the Outdoor
Adventures Center(OAC) Specific Plan.
d) Affect agricultural resources or operations(e.g., ❑ ❑ ❑
impacts to soils or farmlands, or impacts from
incompatible land uses)?(There are no significant
agricultural resources in this part of Grand Terrace)
e) Disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of an ❑ ❑ ❑
established community(including a low-income or
minority community)? (The site consists of only 2.4
acres and is vacant. It will not divide any portion of
the community. )
A b 'ef,explanation to answer I;
The proposed project is permitted by right in the OAC. The project will meet all of the development standards of the OAC
except for the variance request to modify the height limit;however,the OAC Specific Plan contains specific language which
allow the Planning Commission to modify the height limit up to.a height of 35 feet. The proposed use is compatible with other
uses in the immediate vicinity including wholesale uses along Commerce Way. In addition,the proposed project will not affect
any agricultural resources as none exist on the subject site;nor will the project disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of.the
City as it will be built on established,recorded parcels.

II. Population and Housing. Would the proposal:
a)" Cumulatively exceed official regional or local ❑ __
population projections?,(This project does not propose ❑ ❑
any residential uses.)
b) Induce substantial growth in an area either directly or
indirectly;(e.g. through projects in an undeveloped area _
or extensioii.of major infrastructure)? (This project ❑ ❑
will not-induce any substantial growth as it is replacing
an existing headquarters site.)
c) Displace existing housing, especially affordable
housing? (The property was occupied by a single very
old resident which was demolished to make way for ❑ ❑
this proposal) _
A brief explanation to answer II:
The proposed project does not propose any residential development. All public services for this site already exist. The project
_J will not induce substantial-growth in that no expansion of infrastructure will be required for this proposal. Lastly,no existing
housing will be displaced as the site is vacant and has not been used for residential purposes.
III Geologic Problems. Would the proposal result in or
expose people to potential impacts-involving:
a) Fault rupture? (General Plan N EVEIR-ES-4) ❑ ❑ ❑ -

A t rief explanation to answer III:
No active or potentially active fault traces cross the site. The only known potential geologic hazard to the site is from seismic
ground shaking which is not unusual for any site in Southern California. This and any other geologic hazard will"be mitigated
by the requirements that all structures shall be designed and constructed to meet the seismic standards of the Uniform Building
Code. Also,a soils report will be required before the issuance of a grading permit or building permits for this project for th
construction of the headquarters facilities which will identify liquefaction potential.
Finding:Potential impact reduced to a level of insignificance with mitigation measure:This project must meet the
requirements that all structures be designed and constructed to meet the seismic'standards of the Uniform
Building Code.
IV. Water. Would the proposal result in:
a) Changes in absorption rates,drainage patterns, or the
rate and amount of surface runoff? (GP MEA/EIR II-1 ❑ ■ ❑ ❑

b) ' Expose to people or property to water related hazards ❑ ❑ ❑
such as flooding? (GP MEA/EIR II-1)
c) Discharge into surface water or other alteration of ❑ ❑
surface water quality(e.g.,-temperature,dissolved
oxygen or turbidity)?(GP MEA/EIR II-1)
d) Changes in the amount of surface water in any water ❑ ❑ ❑
body? (GP MEA/EIR II-1)
e) Changes in currents, or the course or direction of water ❑ ❑ ❑
movements? ()
f) Changes in the quality of ground waters, either,through ❑ ❑ ❑
direct additions or withdrawals, or through interception
of an aquifer by cuts or excavations, or through
substantial loss of groundwater recharge capability?
(GP MEA/EIR II-1)
g) Altered direction or rate of flow of groundwater? (GP ❑ ❑ ❑
MEA/EIR II-1)
h) Impacts to groundwater quality? (GP MEA/EIR II-1, ❑" ❑ ❑

A brief explanation to answer IV:
The proposed project is to construct the new location of the Essco Electric business in Grand Terrace. There will be an
increase in impermeable surface area;however,a hydrology study will be required to analyze how this increase in runoff will
be adequately handled. The hydrology study will be required before any grading permits for this project can be issued. In
addition,before the grading permits are issued for this project,all NPDES requirements will have to be met which will ensure
that many of the.impact to water resources will be eliminated. These requirements will be set out in a required"Storm Water
Pollution Prevention Plan." Also,a"Water Quality Management Plan"will be required before building permits are issued to
ensure the quality of the water runoff from this site.
Finding:Potential impact reduced to a level of insignificance with-mitigation measure:This project must meet the
requirements that prior to the issuance of grading permits,the applicant shall comply with the City_ of Grand Terrace
Stormwater System Ordinance(Ordinance NO. 142,Subsection 1.010, 1993)and the Santa Ana regional Water Quality Boards
NPDES Permit for San Bernardino County,as required by the Clean Water Act.'
V. Air Quality. Would the proposal: ;
a) Violate any air quality standard or contribute to an ❑ ■ ❑` ❑
existing or projected air quality violation? (GP
MEA/EIRH-14, and.AQW)
b) Expose sensitive receptors to pollutants? (The Element ❑ ❑ ❑ ■
contains an implementing action to reduce such
exposure)
c) Alter air movement,moisture, or temperature, or cause ❑ ❑ ❑ ■
any change in climate? (Any such implementing
actions are designed to have a positive effect on the
region's air quality)
d) Create objectionable odors? (No specific odor causing ❑ ❑ ■
proposals are included in the Element)
A brief explanation to answer V:
The proposed project is relatively small size at only 2.4 acres. 'Most of the site will be.paved or covered with landscaping.
Dust generated by the grading of the site will be controlled as required by existing City regulations. Nb,manufacturing
activities will take place on the site and therefore there will be no manufacturing pollutants generated on the site.Also no odors
will be produced on the site. Some minor air pollutants will be generated by the vehicles employed on the site and employee
and customer vehicles but the amount of pollution will be less than significant.
Finding:Potential impact reduced to a level of insignificance with mitigation measure. For the grading of the site where
dust will be generated,appropriate dust control measures will be integrated into grading plans and activities as required
by the-City as part of the conditions of the grading permit.

Brief explanation to answer IX:
There are no known existing hazards on the site or the immediate surrounding area including areas of
flammable brush. In addition, there may be some hazardous materials stored on the site; however, this
storage will be less than significant because the applicant will have to file the appropriate "business
plan"with the Hazmat Division of the County Fire Department which will mitigate the storage of any
hazardous materials.

Earlier analysis may be used where,pursuant to the tiering,program EIR,or other.CEQA process, one or
more effects have been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR, or negative declaration. Section
15O63(c)(3)(D). In this case a discussion should identify the following on attached sheets:
a) Earlier analysis used. Identify earlier analyses and state where they are available for
review.
■ Used the Grand Terrace General Plan Master Environmental Assessment and
EIR for most of the base impact information. Both documents are available at
the Grand Terrace Community and Economic Development Department.
b) Impacts adequately addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were
within the scope of and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to
applicable legal standards, and state whether such effects were addressed by mitigation
measured based on the earlier analysis.
■ Not Applicable
c) Mitigation measures. For effects that are"Less than Significant with Mitigation
Incorporated," describe the mitigation measured which were incorporated or refined
from the earlier document and the extent they address site specific conditions for the
project.
■ Not Applicable

WHEREAS,-under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Article 6,
.Section 15070, the proposed project to construct a two-story commercial/industrial building for
Essco Electric qualifies for a Mitigated Negative Declaration in that there is no substantial evidence
that the project will have a significant impact on the environment. The environmental assessment
of this project was completed under.Environmental Review Case No. 06-02.
NOW THEREFORE;BE IT RESOLVED BYTHE PLANNING,COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF GRAND TERRACE, STATE OF CALIFORNIA, AS FOLLOWS:
The proposed project and uses are consistent with the intent of the Grand Terrace
Municipal.Code and the General Plan in that the use is allowed in "Planning Area
No. 1-of the 'OAC"and meets the standards of the said Planning Area as required
by the,Site and Architectural Review.
2-. The. locations and configuration of all structures associated with this project are,
visually harmonious with this site and surrounding sites and structures,that they do
not interfere with the neighbors'privacy,that they do not unnecessarily block scenic
-views from other structures and/or public areas,and are in scale with the townscape
and natural landscape of the area. The design and appearance of the proposed
buildings will be consistent with surrounding development. In addition, the site will
be appropriately landscaped to blend in with existing development in the area and
will utilize decorative walls to mitigate the appearance of the,project.
3. The architectural design of the structure,its materials,and colors utilizing earth tone-
colors are visually harmonious with surrounding development and natural landforms;
are functional for the proposed project; and are consistent with the Grand Terrace
ATTACHMENT 15
Municipal Code. Said materials will match existing materials and colors_ of the
surrounding commercial areas.
4. The .plan for landscaping and open-spaces provides a functional and visually
pleasing setting for the structures on this site and is harmonious with the natural
landscape of the area and,nearby commercial. developments. The proposed
landscaping of the site will-be minimize any visual impacts related to the proposed
project.
5. Because the site has no natural vegetation and is not part of abillside,there will be
no'indiscriminate clearing of property,.destruction of trees or natural vegetation or
_ the excessive and unsightly grading of hillsides. Thus the-natural beauty of the city,
its setting and natural landforms will be preserved.
6. The shape and configuration of the proposed site warrant ,a modification of the
height limit to allow for the same amount of floor area for a more regularly shaped
parcel.
7. Because of the special circumstances,the strict application of.the height standards
of "Planning Area No. 1' of the 'OAC" deprives the subject property of privileges
enjoyed by other property in the vicinity and under the identical zoning classification.
8. The granting of this variance will not constitute the grant of special privileges
inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and district in
which the property is situated.
9. The design and locations of all signs associated with this project will be subject to
f_ the approval of a separate sign program to insure that the signs will be consistent
with the scale and character of the building to which they are attached or otherwise
associated with and are consistent with the Grand Terrace.Municipal Code.

City of Grand Terrace Planning Commission
RE: SA-06-02,V-06-01 &E-06-02
This firm represents Citizens For Responsible and Open Government and submits these
comments on their behalf.
The Project is inconsistent with the requirements of the OAC Specific Plan and EIR., The
Project is'also inconsistent with the Development Code,Government Code and CEQA:
The Project proposes a total of 26,390 square feet of space. This amount will exceed the
allowable square footage for Planning Area 1 of the Specific Plan.
The minimum right-of-way for the project is a half width of 44 feet,not 40 feet.
The Building height exceeds the maximum 25 feet provided in the Specific Plan.
The project does not meet the requirements for the sound wall along the north property line.
The walls are not according to the design specifications of the Specific Plan.
The project does not comply with the mitigation measures of the OAC Specific Plan EIR.
There is no required traffic analysis or payment of traffic mitigation fees.or requirements for
construction of roadway improvements required by the Specific Plan. There is also no
acoustical analysis as required by the SP EIR. There has been no study for the burrowing
owl as_required by the EIR. Additionally,the EIR required the mass grading of the entire
site,not incrementally.
The project does not comply with the Air Quality or Noise mitigation measures of the SP
EIR. The project does not comply with the Geology and Soils requirements of the SP EIR
The Project does not comply with the hydrology and water quality requirements of the SP
EIR. The project does not comply with the requirements of the SP EIR for paleontological
resources.
I
{ I -
The proposed Negative Declaration is conclusory and unsupported by substantial evidence.
The SP EIR provides substantial evidence of the impacts addressed above.
The findings for the variance are not supported by substantial legally relevant data. Any
perceived problems are as a result of the project design and are thus self induced hardships.
i There is nothing to support the need for the second story. As has already been discussed,
' the project will result in the exceedance of the developable area of Planning Area 1.
I
The landscape plan,amount of landscaping and landscape treatment and building design_ are
not consistent with the SP requirements. The overall design does not comply with the
requirements of the SP design guidelines.
The proposed use is not consistent with the requirements of the Development Code. The
use is not permitted within the CG land use designation,certainly,no without a conditional
i use permit. The SP requirements do not appear to change these requirements since it
1 specifically stated that no uses would be permitted within the SP that were not already
permitted under the current zoning and that requirements of the development code for
CUP's would remain.
Because of these problems,the plan cannot be approved as is and the Neg Dec must be
i redone to analyze the actual impacts and impose the requirements of the SP EHL
-
iThank you for your consideration.

STAFF'

i -
Associate Planner Lampe greeted the Commission'and presented his staff report as follows:
The subject site (project) is'located on the southerly side of Commerce Way off of Michigan
Street and the site consists of two parcels. It is about 2.4 acre in size and has. a maximum
northsouth dimension of 200 ft. and eastwest of 700 ft. It is an irregularly shaped parcel located
on the southerly side'of Commerce Way. The site is currently level, but it appears that it's been
rough-graded on the easterly portion where it is about 3-4 ft. higher than the westerly portion of
j the site. Overall, the property does slope in a westerly direction towards the freeway.
Surrounding areas are developed with commercial wholesale uses to the northwest. The
wholesale hardware facility is located across Commerce way. The Superior Pool site at this
location, right here,,is the current Essco building and facilities located northwest of the subject-
site; The purpose of tonight's meeting is to approve the new location. Essco will be moving
across the street with the new building facility as proposed tonight.
I
j Access to the site is;provided by Commerce Way. The Department of Building and Safety/
Public Works is requesting an additional 4 ft. of widening along the frontage for the ultimate
widening and improvement of Commerce Way. The subject site lies within Planning Area No. 1
of the Outdoor Adventures Center Specific Plan (the "OAC" as it's called). This is Planning '
Area No. 1, which does permit general retail and wholesale trade businesses such as proposed by
the applicant tonight. The proposed use is consistent with Planning Area No. 1 as allowable use.
Also,located in Planning Area No. 1 are the businesses just described together with the Cal State
building to the immediate north of the subject site. This is a skating rink which has been there
for a number of years. The properties to the east lie within the Barton Road Specific Plan,
including a mobile home park to the east of the subject site. Properties farther south are
developed for residential uses and are in the single-family R-1 zone. Also to the south is a small
1 business park that is CM (commercial/manufacturing) in this location. Further south on
Michigan St. are additional residential R-1 properties. Properties to the southwest of the site are
also in the Outdoor Adventures Center. They are located in Planning Area No. 2 of the Outdoor
Adventures Center, but are presently vacant.
This is the site plan with a full-scale drawing, and it's up on the display board behind showing
fthe proposed development consisting of the approximately 26,000 sq. ft. building in this location'
in the-easterly portion of the site. The westerly portion of the site, which is about an acre in size
C
2
is devoted to the yard area for the transportation, delivery and storage needs of the facility. The
front portion.of the building has a 3,000 sq. ft. second floor. The main reason for the variance
request tonight is to allow for that second-story, the front part of the building.to be used for
offices. The yard area shows four lock-loading docks on the westerly side of the building
together with a fork-lift ramp in this location, south of the property line. Also shown are 15
parking spaces that will be used for employee parking in the southwest corner. In the extreme
southwest tip will be a landscaped area that they'll also use for part of the water retention, and
part of the overall scheme for drainage of the property. Additional parking for employees and
customers will be provided at the easterly side of the property. There's a 30-space parking lot in
this location, and additional 17 spaces on the north side of the property building next to
Commerce Way.
Vehicle access to the site will be provided by three driveways. This driveway is mainly for-
passenger cars and relatively small vehicles. Two large driveways farthest to the west and at 40-
50 ft. in width will be large enough to accommodate trucks that will be making deliveries as well
as providing transport for materials,that they are selling at their site. The yard area that is,shown
on the site plan will be enclosed by-an 8 foot-high wall, which will be decorative in nature on
Commerce Way as shown on the site plan. Each driveway location for the vehicles in the yard
area will have a wrought iron decorative gate. The typical front elevation of that wall and gates
were shown on Sheet A3 (the elevations).
This is the floor plan of the building shown on Sheet Al in the packet that was given to the
Commission, showing that there will be large warehousing area of over;20,000 sq. ft.. On the
first floor, there will be an additional 3,000 sq.R. of office area; and this is.the "will-call" area
where customers and clients will be coming in to do-their business in the facility. That "will-
call" area will be about 2,000 sq. ft. in area. The westerly part of the building, as shown on the
floor plan, is where the-4 loading docks will be, and way down at the southwest corner is the
access for forklifts.All of the openings for the docs and-forklifts have roll-up doors.
The second floor plan mainly shows the first and second floor offices that are proposed for the
use of the employees. On the first floor, there will be sales offices next to the "will-call" area.,
Clients or customers go in there to discuss and make their orders. There will be,additional
private offices and conference rooms, and other incidental rooms for the employees' lunch break .
and restrooms. The second floor will be similarly developed with private offices, file cabinet
storage,restrooms, and conference rooms.
Sheet A3 shows the elevations for the northwest and east elevations of the proposed concrete tilt-
up,building. However, they do have various architectural features reflecting the "OAC" theme;
the craftsmen's detailing over the windows, and also over the north and east entrances. This will
include the simulated wood trim around.the windows and the simulated wood trim around the
doorways. Additional architectural embellishments consist of the use of decorative reveals and
recessed inlets in the northwest and east elevations to add architectural relief to the building.
The recess inlet will also be used on the decorative fence along"Commerce,Way. Also, as seen
on the north elevation, the proposed building will have a height of 34 ft.,where there are two-
stories seen on the north elevation. The remainder of the building, the south part, will have a
height of 30 ft. where it does not have a second story. In Planning Area No. 1,the height limit is
normally 25 ft. However; there is specific language in the "OAC" that says that in Planning
Area No. 1, the Commission may modify this 25 ft. height, and up to 35 ft., by filing a variance.

I
I
i
The staff does believe that the irregular size and shape of the subject site would warrant the
granting of a variance for the request of a two-story structure in order to allow for the same
amount of floor area as more regularly shaped properties in the area.
-We have also been supplied, by the applicant, a preliminary'landscaping plan showing a detailed
plant palate, which includes trees, shrubs, and turf areas. Tree sizes, mainly 24" box size, will
be substantial. The landscaping will be located mainly around the two parking areas to the east
and north of the building. A substantial landscaping strip will run along the Commerce Way
frontage and will add to the appearance of the property. Also, a large landscape area, as I
i pointed out earlier, is in the retention area that's at the western tip of the site. There is a detailed I
plant palate in the Outdoor Adventures Center Specific Plan. We have added a condition that the
! final landscaping plan, as reviewed and approved.by the Community Development Director, will
j have to be in compliance with the landscaping plant palate of the Outdoor Adventures Center.
We are, also, in receipt of a preliminary grading plan for this project, which shows that the site
will drain along a swale. The grading plan will show that there's a swale that will allow for
drainage running along the northerly part of the property flowing into the retention area at the
westerly end of the site. The applicant is here tonight to answer any questions the Commission
might have about compliance with the City's"NPDES"requirements.
We, also, have a color and materials board that shows the, basically, earth-tone colors to be
employed on this building. Again,this is in compliance with the design standards of the Outdoor
Adventures Center, and I am sure the Commission has noted that the applicant has gone through
some extensive trouble preparing color versions of the landscaping plan and the proposed
elevations of the building for their consideration. I
i
I
This project was evaluated in terms of the requirements under the California Environmental
Quality Act. The staff concluded that the project does qualify for a Mitigated Negative
. Declaration in that the project will not have an adverse effect on the environment.
Lastly,the staff is recommending this evening that the Planning Commission approve SA-06-02,
Variance 06-01 and Environmental 06-02 based on findings and facts, and recommend that the
Condition of Approvals as set out on Attachment 15 of the Staff Report as well as the Resolution
of Approval., That does complete my presentation Mr. Chairman, and I would be glad to answer
i
any questions you or the Commissioners may have at this time.
Director Koontz: One quick note before we start with that part of it. Commissioner Addington
asked me a question concerning the condition on the parcel merger under Condition 19 of the
Resolution.
Vice Chair Addington: Thank you.
i
i Chair Wilson: I would like to take a little bit of time. We did receive a late entry in relation to
an item from Johnson & Sedlack. The Commission has not had an opportunity to review that.
We will take that time right now, and then'see if there 'are any comments. Let's take a few
minutes.
(Long Silence)

f ,
Chair.`Wilson: Commissioners,have we had sufficient time'to digest it?
Commissioner Addington: Thank you.
Chair Wilson: To say that we note Mr. Johnson's objections, we will 'proceed based on the
strength of staff s responses to Mr. Johnson''s-'objections. Let's open up the time to discuss this
matter with staff and receive any questions or comments the Commissioners may have in relation
to the Staff Report.
Coma issioner-Addington:' I do have one question. Gary, thank you for answering my previous
question on the lot merger. Looking at Planning Area No.1, one exhibit you provided for the
"OAC", it shows landscaping down a median. ,Now, I realize this'is only one part of the total
"OAC",'but at what phase of the"OAC"are we proposing to actually construct the median?
Director Koontz: If you recall, during the public-hearings we had on the "OAC"., which were
quite extensive, there was quite a discussion received from the existing,property owners and
businesses along this existing segment. They,were very concerned about changing the street
pattern. If you recall,there was quite a discussion that the median would actually start below the
existing.street where it ends because we're going to have an additional right-of-way out there. It
is very difficult to provide a median within the existing right=of--way with existing curbs and
gutters, existing buildings and all that, to really have the entire Commerce Way with a median.
For the rest of it, it is going to be widening out as we go from the south. 'There's a commitment
made,we can,go back to the minutes,to all the existing businesses there-that we weren't going to
really destroy their access on to the properties.
Commissioner Addington: So, south of where the road ends, it'll widen out into a divided road
with a median.
Director Koontz: Right. The section is going to transition from here going_further south.
Commissioner Addington: To what, 92, 94, 96?
Director Koontz: I forgot the exact width,but it's got a landscaped parkway and median.
Vice Chair Addington: Wider than 88 feet.
Director Koontz: Yes.
Chair Wilson: Any other questions or comments from the staff?
Vice Chair Addington: Just one. Looking at the green colors and looking at the exhibit with the
brown colors, are one of these off?
Director Koontz: Let's refer that to the applicant.
Vice Chair Addington: Alright. Thank you.

Chair Wilson: I do have one question of staff. I know that our"OAC"requires an 8 ft. concrete
wall with pilasters or whatever you call it, but I don't believe that I know what the treatment of
j the wall face will be, and I don't think I saw it here.
! Director Koontz: There,was a section somewhere on the elevations.that shows it is an 8 foot
wall, it's concrete and it will have pilasters. So, to us, because this is a kind of a stand alone
parcel,an 8 foot'wall, it has-pilasters,it's concrete, and it's capped, it coincides with the general
i direction of the Outdoor Adventures Center Specific Plan. Most of the conditions and
requirements of the "OAC"are really focused on the major brand new development, big projects
where,we can standardize everything. Where as here, because you have stuff across the street,
it's kind of a transitional area. We spoke with the applicant and the owner at length trying to
blend in the "OAC" and the craftmen's theme and all of that as much as we could into a tilt-up
concrete building, and they've been very, very cooperative. I think we've come a long way, and
it kind of matches the "OAC"requirements.
1 -
j Chair Wilson: Is it a plastered wall? What is the finish on-the face?
Director Koontz: I believe it's concrete. You can have the...
Chair Wilson: Just painted concrete.
Director Koontz: Right. With landscaping in front, one of the big issues as someone has said,
i "we're worried about graffiti." So, I believe the applicant can expand on that, also. ,
Chair Wilson: Any other questions from the staff? Chair Wilson invited the.applicant to speak I
on behalf of his proposed project.

i My company will be engineering the project. We have read the staff report. Gary and John, we
appreciate.your input. We agree with the Condition of Approval. It will be a very nice project
i for Essco.
,
i
To answer your question, the wall will be totally concrete and painted. There is a great graffiti
paint out there, and we might try that. It makes the cleanup easier. I think the best bet will be to
C grow vines. We do have a 10' landscape strip, and we'll have the opportunity to landscape
pretty good; and the wall does have those medallions that will, hopefully, match the features of
the building. There's some tie there. Regarding your concern about the color, lighting and so
on, it's been so long since I did that board that I can't remember; but I think the rendering is
fj probably not the colors. We're looking for a beige/brown and red/brown.
Vice Chair Addington: O.k.,and on the board it's green. Alright. Thank you.
Howard Parsell: I'm sure we can make it work. We'll do our best.

Chair Wilson: What's the spacing on the.vines.that you.are going to put in? Sure, you're Tight,
the vines are going to be a solution on the wall.
Howard Parsell: Yes, we haven't gotten fully .into detail with the landscaping yet, but I'd
recommend something very dense, something that will grow quick.
Chair Wilson: Thank you. Any other questions?
Vice Chair Addington:- Just one. One of the questions that I typically ask is regarding the
NPDES compliance, How do you: propose to comply with all of that? I know you have the one
basin, but can you just give me a description of how you are going to comply with that with
WQNT?
Horward Parsell: Yes. We've got a substantial area set aside for infiltration into the-bio basin,
what we like to call a retention basin, which will handle first flush situations. We fortunate
enough to,have a pretty good storm drainage right to the west with a San Bernardino County
Flood Control storm,drain,which we are assuming and hoping we can tie,into so that one of their.
pipes that will be available to handle big flows, will take it,directly to the storm drain after the
filtration process. We will submit the WQMP and SWEPP as required..
Vice Chair Addington: Thank you very much.
Commissioner Bidney: I have a question in regard to hazardous waste containers. What kind of
-J
hazardous waste do they have?
Howard Parsell: I think that's a fairly common issue for the Fire Department,but we don't
handle any hazardous material at all. Basically,we carry electrical supplies for construction
situations..
Director Koontz: The Fire Department requirement for-Haz-met business plans is standard.
Every business in the County, and pretty much in all of California, has this in its business plan;
whether they've got hazardous waste or not. At least, they acknowledge that in writing,to the
Fire Department.
Commissioner McNaboe: Do you have any plans for passive lighting,heating or cooling?
Howard Parsell: We're going to have to comply with energy conservation requirements. ,

I am formerly opposing what I consider to be a very irresponsible mitigated negative declaration,
j which you are being asked to approve, for numerous reasons. This proposed project is on a-
specific plan, and there'are certain legal regulations on the specific plan for this property. It is
not to be broken off, developed separately. The plan that was submitted before, and already
being legally challenged, put Essco expansion in Planning Area No. 2, not Planning Area No. 1.
The City has consistently told the residents of this community that the reason for using all our
tax money to buy up property to control this land was to prevent exactly what is being proposed
here. I am very disgusted, both with the City and with Essco; for what has been going on for the
last few years and where Essco is right now. It has very unsightly outdoor storage, which I don't
believe they're supposed to have it where it is. It is not suppose,to be in the zone where this is.
i Warehousing and outdoor storage is not supposed to be there. It is too big to be moved even
closer .to Michigan, Street and residential property. -The "OAC" Environmental Report
specifically states that no permits will be issued for any building on the "OAC" project until
circulation plans and grading plans are finalized, and payments for proper permits are made, etc.
I-have something right here saying that we're not going to have tilt-up buildings, and the
pollution.and transportation is suppose to be addressed, etc. Our Traffic Engineer doesn't even
know from his report what street this building is on. A fee of$24,618.00 is supposed to be paid
for improvements.to roadways to the County before anything is approved.
i
Chair Wilson: Your time is up.
Patricia Farley: How can my time be over?I have 3 minutes.
f
Chair Wilson: It's three minutes. Mr. Brian Phelps?
'Patricia Farley: Well, I would like to say one last summary thing. _
Chair Wilson: -Sure. `
Patricia Farley: To tell me that this.represents the Outdoor Adventures Center flies into the face
of any intelligent person. '
I
Chair Wilson: Brian Phelps?
Brian Phelps

I only have a few'things here. I am concerned about the outdoor storage. I know where it's at
now. If it is going to be some outdoor storage, where will it be? Will it be near the forklift ramp
there, will it be visible from the street? Will any of the HVAC equipment be visible from the
'street? Are,they going to have good screening'there? I would like to see some kind of cornice
on the top of those buildings so they don't look quite like a tilt-up building. They look fine as
they are. Better disguise that. I didn't see anything on their lighting plan and what it is going to
f look like. I don't know if that's coming later or not.
In regards to the parking area in the front where the "will-call" area and such is, which ends right
against the back wall of the adjacent building, I would prefer, maybe,.some tall landscaping or
something to break up the base of that concrete wall that is going to be seen on back of that other
I
8
building. Right now, it looks like it's just a wall that's_ going to be there. Perhaps some sort of
landscaping area right there as well.

I own Winnelson Company right across the street from Essco,on the plan here. I also live in the
City. I have absolutely nothing against Essco.. I think they're good neighbors. On the City plan
where it shows, and as Gary has already addressed, a median didn't show in there. I've been told
that median is not going to be there, so I'm curious why it popped up again. Also, John was
talking about a 4 ft. widening of the street. I was curious if that's just from one side of the.road,
the undeveloped side or if it's coming off with 2 ft. on each side. I don't know, maybe I
misunderstood that, I'm note sure. I would like to get a clarification on that.
One of the things I know that got brought up is outside storage, which is a critical feature for
them as well as for us. I know that some people are speaking out against it, but I want them to
see what the tax base is. Even though'we sell,wholesale plumbing supplies, and ,they sell
wholesale .electrical supplies, it doesn't mean that they are tax exempt. Virtually every'
contractor we sell to pays taxes. I think that's exactly what the City is looking for. They are a
clean organization, and we are, too. Our hours are pretty similar, we're not open- on the
weekend, and we don't impact the City and that type of thing. One of the concerns, and I want
to bring it up right now, is that they have outdoor storage like we do;-and they've had to take
some measures for theft, and so do we. Theft is a big concern down in that area, and I'd like to
see if there's a way that we can propose some'kind of solution to control that better. I'm not
sure, exactly, what the answers, are,. but I know they've had problems, and we've had the
` problems with,people coming over the fence and helping themselves. We're really not getting a
great response from the Sheriff s Department on that. Thank you.
Chair Wilson: Bobbie Forbes?

I only frequent that neighborhood because of the skating rink, and as of late, in the last two
months or so I notice that someone has started doing street storage. I don't know the particulars,
but there all kinds of equipment or products that are sold; products used in construction stored in
what I think is the street. I don't know if it is from Essco. It's embarrassing.' My gosh! I don't
know if you've been down there lately, but that's really embarrassing. So, the kids go down
there, they party, they drive around, hang out and party in that little pocket. There-are lots of
places for them to hang out now, and I don't know if it's legal for them to be`doing that. That's
dust one thing I am embarrassed about,that it is a business that's'right in front of the community,
and right around where the kids are. I don't know anything bad about Essco, so I can say that. If
that's their storage, I don't think it should be out in the street right now or until this building is-
built and comes in"place. I do wonder if this is what we're suppose to have as the welcoming
mat to the Outdoor Adventures Center area, whenever that comes. Is that.what we are going to
see? That is what we're going to see, as soon as one turns down Michigan Street. It's a beautiful
building, but is that what we want to project as a welcome to the. neighborhood as the
development comes. I think that's my biggest concerns, and that's just really important. We
9
f
i
need good outdoor lighting for that area, and when someone-comes around the corner, are we
going to see from the freeway to Michigan and Barton Road as you turn on all the.other streets?
{ Thank you.
Chair Wilson: I would like the applicant to come up so that we don't lose track, and possibly
faddress some of the questions. I'll just summarize a few here. First, the issue of outdoor
r storage, and I think it is well noted that you do have a potential for theft and so on. So, how is
outdoor storage going to be handled? Can.you address that for us?
Howard Parsell —
4854 Main'St.

j - All of the outdoor storage will be within that 8 foot wall. So, without the 8 foot wall, we can at
f lease have security with some tall trees. All the outdoor storage will be screened from'public
view. Lighting-will be such that it will keep our property secure, but it will not be glaring into
j our neighbors' eyes: I'm not sure how I'm going to handle the theft problem, but I think the
rolling gates and the 8-foot wall should help.
Chair Wilson: I think that.pretty much takes care of the various questions for the applicant.
Director"Koontz: One of the topics of discussion in the very beginning were the visual issues
here and the outdoor,storage, and we made it very clear to them that from the street, we didn't
want to see stuff stacked up along here. If you're going to stack anything along this wall, it's
jbing to be below the level of the wall. If there is an 8 foot wall, the view from the street is f
f where you're looking up an 8 ft. wall, and we better not be seeing a lot of stuff above that wall.
For anything that is high, we suggest they put it back in the corner, and we have told them to be
very careful about how high they stack materials. In terms'of the lighting plan, Condition 29
requires a full lighting plan.
Chair Wilson: -In terms of the question concerning the additional 4 feet of right-of-way.
} Director Koontz: That's primarily dedication for parkways, and the street is pretty much
approved "as is". If you notice, this area along there is wider. That side already has that extra 4
C feet, so we're asking for the extra 4 feet along this side also.
I "
Chair Wilson: That'-s a dedication. I see it. Thank you.
Chair Wilson: One other item. Gary, let's just kind of review or summarize again the situation
with the median. I remember the conversations, I remember the discussion, and what we had for
our rationale,but why don't you go ahead and just state it again.
Director Koontz: In terms of...
Chair Wilson: The way the median is going to change down south.
Director: Sorry, I didn't.get that...
10
Chair Wilson: The way the median is going to change.
Director Koontz: The issue is part of the public-hearings. I think this was brought up at both the
public hearings for the Planning Commission and .the City Council, whereby the existing
businesses along the street_were very concerned. One,they want to stay there and didn't want to
be displaced. Neither the Commission, the staff, nor the Council wanted the displacement. So it
was a matter of accommodating: So, there was an issue of, o.k., we've already got all the
improvements in here,let's work with this the best we can. Once we get to the end here, then
we'll start flaring out and adding additional right-of-ways so we can put in the median and all the .
other landscaping. The exhibit that you,saw before still shows the median. That was the original
exhibit in the Specific Plan, and that was not changed; but in discussions in meetings, hearings
and all that,that was changed with this section right here.
Chair Wilson: Might I mention, this body has entertained d median scheme for Barton,Road
from the freeway and.going to the boundaries of the City., It's been a great deal of discussion
with the businesses in the area on a median that would stretch from, basically, the freeway all the
way past the City Hall, but it was violently opposed. And, believe me, I think it's a good idea
with the right kinds of release, but when we,got into the issue of this particular area, there are
pre-existing uses, and the use that is being proposed here is in accordance with the Outdoor
Adventures'Center. There is no surprise here that for what's being proposed, and because of the
amount of traffic that will take,place and the type of traffic, it was thought that the median
condition would be introduced further down where you could gain the right-of-way. But,,believe
me,there's been a great deal of thought in relation to medians throughout.the City.
Director Koontz: We talked to Essco about the outdoor storage. They asked,"for a short term,
can we just have an encroachment permit and fence that off because it doesn't go anywhere, and
it is just a street that deadends?" They said, "we're looking in building a new,building, and once
we get that building built, everything is moving,into that building." So, as an interim way to try
to help them get through this issue, the City did issue a-validencroachment permit.. The issue is
they've got to keep it clean, and they've got to keep it safe.' There's insurance policies on it, and ,
they've got like a 30-day notice, if we decide we want to get rid of them. But the big issue was,
let them do this, operate their existing facility while they are planning and building this,and soon
as this is built, all that goes away.
Chair Wilson: What is the term of the encroachment permit? That's the term, basically, when '
this building is built,if it is built.
Director Koontz: Right. At a minimum, I believe it's like one year and renewed month-to-
month after that, or we can just tell them, "30 days, get out."
Chair Wilson: The insurance policy covers the City in.the event some individual crashes through
into the outside storage?
Director Koontz: It covers the City from any liability associated with any activity they are doing
on that site. It's like a million dollar policy.

On that street, Commerce Way, where it leads down pass the skating rink, for quite a long time
j there was some type of vehicle with graffiti all over it. It wasn't really a motor home._ It was
some kind of a work vehicle. Does it belong to anybody in the room? -
I
.Chair Wilson: Let's let staff address that
Rich Shields: No, it didn't belong to anybody. We towed it.
Bobbie Forbes: It wasn't a local vehicle?
I
Rich Shields: No. Somebody just decided they were going to park it there.
Bobbie Forbes: It was horrible. I'm glad to see that it is gone., I appreciate that.
i
Chair Wilson: So the removal was an enforcement issue and you followed through on that.
I
! Director Koontz: Yes. We seriously focused on this whole area with code enforcements. A lot
of people are parking things down there. The other issue is that at the next City Council meeting
is going to be an action to redline in front of the industrial park south of Commerce along
Michigan. All those big trailers parking there is now, and it's really a site/distance problem. So,
I that's going before the Council in the next couple hearings.

One additional question I have is regarding the landscaping on either side of all the driveways.
Will any of the landscaping block-the view for entering and exiting? I know because on the
inside corners, that could be a tough view for any of the drivers that are exiting or entering there
since that's going to be the entrance way to the Outdoor Adventures Center - at least one of
them. I would have concerns about visual places for traffic there.
Director Koontz: The answer to that is "no". On the landscape plan that we see, one of the
issues that we always look at is sight/distance visibility, and because of truck traffic and all that,
we-will definitely be looking at that to make sure there wasn't anything real high to block that
way.

Don't count:it part of my minutes,please. Gary was just saying that the agreement was that they
would not have outdoor storage, and they're telling you they're going-to have outdoor storage,
and I'm telling you the zoning says they're not suppose to have it; and,, also, from the
Environmental Impact Report"for the "OAC", it says, specifically, that they are-to construct
Commerce Way from Michigan ,to Taylor at its ultimate -cross-section with .as a secondary
highway and that's suppose,to be done prior to Certificate of Occupancy for even the first
building. So, I guess the summary to me is, I am totally frustrated as a resident that nobody is
protecting•our rights and.our_property as to who gets to.rent out our streets., Not rent it, they get
it for free. When is somebody going to represent us?
Chair Wilson: Thank you. Anyone with any other comments or questions? Would;staff like to
address that issue?
Greg Goucher
12019 Honey Hill Drive
Regarding the comment about the truck, it did take a long time to get it out, but please don't
judge our business or Superior or Essco by the semi's and the'things that.are parked across from
the skating rink. Most of those trucks, in fact, all those trucks have nothing to do with us. The
trucks that come in on a daily basis are contractors making.deliveries. They don't have time to
park semi trucks. That's one problem that I see possibly coming down the road for that being an
r in-and-out of the "OAC". It's that particular part of the street that is directly across from the
skating rink, at the moment, on both sides, which is used for probably overnight-,storage or
parking for some trucks. I think there's probably some residents in town who are over-the-road
drivers. So, that might.be a concern. The address, the outdoor storage, but if you drive by our
place, you know what, we've grown, too. We're real happy to be here, it's a good"spot.to be.
We have some stuff that, quite frankly, I didn't ever think it would be where it is right now. But,
it's piled very high: To'me, I like seeing it, because it means that we are busy; but, I'm sure
some residents will drive by that might say it doesn't look real good. So, I don't know if there's
some point where we can come to some kind of a solution. Maybe, we can go to a 12 ft. wall or
something on our ,side, and we can probably live within those parameters; but there are some
things I think that we can do, also. We're looking for the same -- for some help and solutions,
too. If we have to raise a block wall or something, maybe there are some funds that we can
share. Those are my thoughts. Thanks.
Chair Wilson:. Thank you. Please feel free to work with the staff in relation to that.
Director Koontz: In response to your question, you .may recall that this whole area along
Commerce Way was included in the "OAC", and because we saw it as being the primary
entrance into the area. We wanted to make sure that any new buildings that were constructed,
landscaping, and the architecture provided some consistency with the "OAC". The.real "OAC"
project is everything farther south of this. All the infrastructure is in, these are existing graded
pads, and this is an existing business that wants to expand. They are just moving across the
street. We saw this as being consistent. Anything farther south that is proposed, yes, all those
13

conditions, and all those requirements on undeveloped land definitely would apply. With this
one, everything is already in. So, it's just what is existing.

SITE AND SURROUND AREA:
l
The subject site is a;vacant, 2.4 acre parcel located on the southerly side of Commerce Way
beginning about 240 feet westerly of Michigan Street. The site is irregularly shaped with a _
f maximum east-west dimension of 704.64'and a maximum north-south dimension of 200.13'. The
j site is fairly level but appears to have been"rough"graded with the easterly portion about 3 to 4 feet
higher than the westerly portion. Overall,the site slopes to the west.
The subject site consists of two recorded parcels, a Parcel 5 of 1.35 acres and a Parcel 6 of 1.03
acres. A recommended condition of approval is that these parcels be merged.into one new parcel
prior to the issuance of building permits.
The surrounding area is developed with commercial and wholesale uses to the north and west, a
j mobile home park and residential uses to the east and vacant parcels, a small business park and
additional residential uses to the south. One of the buildings of the business park to,the south sets
on or near a portion of the southerly property line of the site.
Access to the project site is provided by Commerce Way which has a planned right-of-way of 80 feet •
in this location.- The existing right-of-way along the subject site varies from 72 feet to 76 feet. An
additional 4 feet of the subject site will be required for future street widening"to provide a forty(40)
foot half street right-of-way on Commerce Way." Dedication and street improvements have been
requested by the Department of Building and Safety/Public Works.
According to.the City's Storm Drain Map there is a 24" storm drain at the end of Commerce Way `
at the westerly end of the site.
For an aerial view of the site and surrounding area,please see Attachment 2.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Site Plan:
The site plan, marked Sheet "SP1,"shows the proposed development consisting of the two-story
buildingWith 26,390 square feet of floor area;the enclosed yard area of about 1 acre on the westerly
portion of the site which includes.four loading docks, a ramp for the use of forklifts, employee
parking for 15 spaces and a covered trash enclosure. Also shown on the site plan are two additional
parking-areas on the north and east side of the proposed building and the proposed landscaped areas
which will cover about 10% of the site. In addition ,the site plan shows the location of a 3;000
square foot, second floor for office use over the north end of the new building.
A total of 62 parking spaces are shown on the site plan in the three parking,spaces noted above. This
meets the amount of parking required under the Zoning Code for the proposed square footages of
the warehousing,will-call area and office space.
Vehicle access to the site will be provided by means of three driveways off of Commerce Way. The
smallest driveway will be located in the northeast corner_ of the-site with a 26 foot wide driveway.
This driveway will be used:by customers and employees. The other two driveways will also provide
truck access to the yard area; they,will be 40 feet and 50 feet in width.
The yard area will be enclosed by a 8 foot high wall which will be decorative in nature along
Commerce Way. The location of the proposed 8 foot high wall is also shown on the site plan,Sheet
SP 1. Each driveway into the yard area will be closed off with a wrought-iron decorative gate. It
should be noted that this 8 foot high wall may not be required where the existing building of the
business park to the south is located.
A 8 %z"x 11"reduction of the site plan has been included in,this staff report as Attachment 3.
Floor Plans:
The floor plan of the proposed building is shown on Sheet "Al." Shown on this sheet is the
warehousing area of 20,300 square feet,the first floor office area.of 3,000 square feet and the"will
call" area of 2,000 square feet. The four loading docks are also shown on Sheet."Al" along the,
Westerly wall of the building. Each dock will have a 9'x 10'roll-up door. Lastly, in the southwest'
corner of the building,a 16'x 14'roll-up door is shown where the forklift ramp will enter the building.
Sheet "AT' shows mainly the detailed floor plans for the first and second story office part of the
building. The first floor shows portion of the will call area, sales offices, private .offices, a
conference/training room,break room and restrooms. The second floor will contain additional office
space, another conference room,a plan room, file cabinet storage,area and restrooms. Again,each
floor will have 3,000 square feet of floor area.
M1
8 %z"x 1 I"reductions of Sheet"AI"and"A2"have been attached to the staff report as Attachments
j 4 and 5.
I
I Elevations:
The north,west and east elevations of the proposed building are shown on Sheet"A3." Also shown
at the bottom of Sheet A3 is a partial elevation of the proposed site wall around the yard area.
The proposed building will be a concrete tilt-up. It will contain various architectural features to -
reflect the rural/outdoor theme with Craftsman detailing of the Outdoor Adventures Center Specific
i Plan: These include "simulated" wood trim around the windows on the north elevations and
"simulated wood" trim around the entrance to the building on its northeast comer. Colors and
materials will utilize earth tone colors and stains to reflect the design guidelines of the"OAC."
i
! Additional architectural embellishments of the proposed building will consist of the use of
"decorative reveals" and 3/4" "recess inlets" on the north-, west and east elevations. The "recess
inlets"will also be employed on the decorative screening wallas seen on the partial elevation of the
site wall at the bottom of Sheet "A3." This partial elevations of the site wall also shows the
j decorative nature of the proposed wrought-iron gates.
i -
As seen on the north elevation,the proposed building will have a height of 34 feet where it is two
stories along its front portion. The remainder of the building will be 30 feet in height. The height
limit for"Planning Area 1"of the"OAC"is 25 feet;however,the Planning Commission,according
to the"OAC"Specific Plan,may approve a height of up to 35 feet with the approval of a variance.
Therefore, this is the,reason for the application for V-06-01 to modify the 25 foot height limit as
j allowed by the"OAC"Specific Plan.
It is the Staff s opinion that the irregular size and shape of the subject site would warrant the granting
of a variance for a two-story structure in order to allow for the same amount of floor area as would
be permitted on a more regularly or rectangularly shaped parcel.
8 %z"x I I"reduction of the elevations have been attached to the staff report as Attachment 6.
Preliminary Landscaping_
The preliminary landscaping plan is shown on Sheet"L1." The preliminary landscape plan shows
a detailed plant pallette including.trees,shrubs and turf. Tree sizes will be mainly of a 24"box size.
The landscaping will be located mainly around the two parking areas on the north and east side of
f the building, along the Commerce Way frontage and at the western"tip"of the site where a water
f retention area is also proposed.
I
Some of the plants listed in the plant pallette of the landscaping plan are not found on Table I-6 of
the Master Plant List of the"OAC"Specific Plan. A condition of approval is recommended that the
! final landscaping plan reflect the landscaping requirements of the "OAC"Specific Plan.
I�
I
A detailed landscaping and irrigation plan will be required to be submitted and to be approved prior
to the issuance of building permits. In addition,all of the landscaping will have to be installed prior
to the final occupancy of the development.
�A.8 Y?x.11" reduction of the preliminary landscaping plan is shown as Attachment 7.
Preliminary Grading Plan:
The preliminary grading information is shown.on the Sheet "Cl." The preliminary grading plan
r shows that the site will drain to a swale running along the Commerce Street frontage towards a
retention basin in the extreme western end of the site. The applicant will be present to explain how
the drainage of the site will meet all NPDES requirements.
A 8 %Z"x 11"reduction of the preliminary grading plan is shown on Attachment 8 which,is the site
plan.
Color and Material-Board:
A"Color and Materials"board for this project will be made available at the public hearing for the
Planning Commission's information and review. The board contains the color schemes that will.be
used throughout the project including building and trim colors,window glass color and simulated
wood trim. Colored elevations of the buildings and a colored conceptual landscaping plan will also
