2030 VISION STATEMENT:
This staff reports promotes 2030 Vision Goal 3 to Promote Economic Development as
this Project will keep a business within the City that due to the 215 Interchange Project
must relocate from its current location.
PROPOSAL:
Dr. Terry McDuffe submitted a proposal to construct a9,992 square foot commercial
building to include a 7,403 animal emergency clinic and 2,589 square foot tenant space
with associated parking, lighting and landscaping improvements. A minor deviation of
two parking spaces is proposed.
The Project is proposed on 0.90 acres located on the southwest corner of Commerce
Way and Michigan Street. The animal emergency clinic operates 6 pm to 8 am
weeknights, and 24 hours on weekends and holiday. The clinic employs 25-30
employees. There is no tenant currently identified for the proposed 2,589 square foot
tenant space.
BACKGROUND:
The Subject Property is currently owned by the City of Grand Terrace. On July 12,
2016, the City Council entered into an Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (ENA) with Dr.
Packet Pg. 12
B.2
McDuffe to negotiate the sale of the subject property to build a new animal emergency
clinic. Due to the I-215 Interchange Project, the animal emergency clinic must relocate
by October of 2017. Dr. McDuffee has been searching for a property to move the animal
clinic to since the Interchange Project was approved.
ultimately, the City and Dr. McDuffee discussed the viability of the subject lot, and Dr.
McDuffee determined that the property is suitable for a new animal emergency clinic.
On September 27, 2016, the City Council entered into a Disposition and Development
Agreement (DDA) to negotiate the sale and development of the site. The Subject
Property is currently in escrow.
On October 24, 2016, Dr. McDuffee submitted Conditional Use Permit 16-03, Site and
Architectural Review 16-08, Minor Deviation 16-01 and Environmental 16-09 to develop
the site. The application was reviewed and deemed incomplete on November 18, 2016.
Revised plans were submitted on December 5, 2016, and the application was deemed
complete.
SITE AND SURROUNDING AREA:
The Project Site is vacant of structures and has two palm trees near Commerce Way.
The site sits approximately 5-6 feet below the street grade of Michigan Street and at the
intersection with Commerce Way, and the grades flatten towards the west.
Surrounding uses are as follows:
Zoning General Plan Existing Land Uses
North C2-General Commercial General Commercial Cal Skate skating rink
East General Commercial - BRSP and LDR Stater Bros. and single
BRSP and R1-7.2 family residential
South CM-Commercial General Commercial Business Park
Manufacturing
West CM-Commercial General Commercial One Source Distributors
Manufacturing
ANALYSIS:
General Plan and Zoning Consistency
Packet Pg. 13
B.2
Use Map. The GC designation is located adjacent and near the 215 Interchange. This
designation provides for general commercial uses to serve the retail and service needs
of the community. The proposed animal emergency clinic provides is consistent with the
General Commercial land use designation because it not only serves the immediate
community it provides necessary services in the surrounding communities. It promotes
Land Use Goals to provide for balanced growth which seeks to provide for maintenance
of a healthy and diversified community; and to provide a wide range of retail and service
commercial opportunities to meet the needs of City residents, businesses and visitors. It
is consistent with Circulation Element Policies to provide street dedication along project
frontages and to require construction of street improvements when development occurs.
It is in compliance with the Open Space and Conservation Element regarding protection
of water quality in that the Project has been evaluated to identify and address potential
point and non-point sources of groundwater contamination and to enforce compliance
with NPDES, WQMP, BMP and RWQCB requirements. It is consistent with the Noise
Element because all potential noise impacts have been mitigated. The Project promotes
several General Plan policies relating to energy conservation, water conservation and
construction recycling.
The site is zoned CM-Commercial Manufacturing. The purpose of the CM district is to
provide for the development of combined commercial and light manufacturing uses.
The CM zone district allows C2 zone district uses, either by right or conditional use
permit. Veterinary clinics are permitted subject to a conditional use permit. Retail,
commercial and office uses are permitted by right.
The proposed development is consistent with the development standards of the district
such as building setbacks, landscape and building coverage, building heights, except
that a reduction of two parking spaces is requested.
Parking Deviation/Relaxation of Standards
The Zoning Code requires 50 parking spaces, 37 for the clinic and 13 for the tenant
space. Forty-eight are proposed. Section 18.60.050 of the Off-Street Parking
requirements allows the Planning Commission to grant a minor deviation to the off
street parking requirements when it is determined that the deviation is minor in nature,
will be of benefit to the project and will not create a negative impact on existing or
potential uses adjacent to or in the vicinity of the project.
The proposed animal clinic operates from 6 pm to 8 am Monday through Friday, and 24
hours on weekends and holidays. These are non-traditional business hours and
therefore, the reduction of 2 spaces will not negatively impact adjacent uses or the
operations of the future tenant use, as the tenant is anticipated to utilize traditional
hours of operation. In addition, the reduction will benefit the development of this
property by making it feasible. Finally, a reduction of 2 spaces equates to 4% of the total
parking requirement and is therefore minor.
Packet Pg. 14
B.2
Site Plan/Grading/Improvements
Given the existing topography, the site is designed so that access is via Commerce
Way. The building is being placed on the southwest corner of the site. Because the
Project Site is lower than the adjacent streets, retaining walls run along the west
property line, along the corner radius and along Michigan Street. At their highest point
the retaining walls measure 8 feet, and this is along the corner radius. The retaining
walls will not be visible from the streets as they are below street grade. They will be
visible from the parking lot, and all walls and exposed retaining walls will be decorative.
Although the retaining walls will not be visible from the street, because of the height,
protective barriers are required. The applicant will be installing tubular fencing on top of
the retaining walls. The grading plan shows chainlink fencing; but chainlink will not be
permitted. Parkway and perimeter landscaping, and the incorporation of landscape area
at the corner radius will help to soften this effect.
A fully fenced dog walk area has been incorporated into the southeast corner of the site.
This area is an integral part of the recovery process for the patients. This area is
accessible from the interior of the building. Artificial turf will be installed in this area.
Along Michigan Street are two power poles. The Zoning Code requires that public utility
and transmission lines shall be located underground unless otherwise approved by the
Site and Architectural Review Board. Michigan Street is already designed to its ultimate
right of way, with curb, gutter and a four-foot wide sidewalk. The poles do not require
relocation; however, the sidewalk does need to be widened an additional two feet to
meet City standards. The Project can be constructed without any alteration to the power
poles, and no other poles have been undergrounded along this portion of Michigan
Street. Therefore, Staff recommends that the Board not require undergrounding of the
power poles, but require the widening of the sidewalk. All on-site utility lines will be
undergrounded.
Interim and final street improvements
The Project Site is within boundaries of the I-215 Interchange Project. The Interchange
Project design includes curb, gutter and paving improvements along the Commerce
Way frontage, and a portion of the Michigan Street frontage. The design plans have
already been completed. In addition, 8 feet of right of way dedication is required along
Commerce Way, which is not part of the Interchange Project.
The Interchange Project does not have the road improvements in this area scheduled
until 2018. The Applicant will construct the driveway approach to its final design and
interim improvements along Commerce Way and the corner radius. The Applicant will
prepare the final improvement plans and coordinate construction improvements with
SANBAG so that full right of way improvements are constructed in 2018, in conjunction
Packet Pg. 15
B.2
with the Interchange Project. Conditions of Approval are proposed to ensure final street
improvements are completed.
Conceptual Landscaping Plan
The conceptual landscape plans show the areas that will be landscaped, including the
incorporated landscape area at the corner radius. The parkway along Michigan Street
will have landscaping (trees, shrubs, groundcover) installed, which will improve the look
of the streetscape as there is currently is none. Along Commerce Way, the landscape
plans do not show parkway landscaping; however, this is an error as the civil plans do
not show parkway along Commerce Way. The final plans will show parkway and
parkway landscaping including street trees. Maintenance of street trees will part of the
maintenance assessment district that the developer will be required to annex into. The
project includes standard conditions of approval requiring final landscape and irrigation
plan review.
Architectural Elevations
The Applicant has worked with the Project Architect to design an aesthetically pleasing
building that complements the surrounding area. The new building is 19 feet higher, with
the tower treatments that extend to 23 feet in height. The building will be constructed of
color is a mediu
tall tower treatments; at the front of the building on the east side is a shorter tower
towers will have a stacked stone veneer. A silver canopy is proposed at the primary
entrance, and also above the windows on the west architectural elevations.
Agency Review
The Project Plans were distributed to various agencies and City Departments for review
and comments. Riverside Highland Water Company indicated that they can serve the
Project, as has Southern California Edison.
Conditions of approval from the City Building and Safety and Public Works
Departments, County Fire and City of Colton Water and Wastewater are included in the
resolution.
Environmental Review
The Project qualifies for a categorical exemption, pursuant to Section 15332 of the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, which exempts infill projects
that (a) are consistent with the general plan designation and zoning regulations; (b) the
development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres
Packet Pg. 16
B.2
substantially surrounded by urban uses; (c) the site has no value as habitat for
endangered, rare or threatened species; (d) approval of the project would not result in
any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality; and (e) the
site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public service.
PUBLIC NOTICE:
Public notice of the Project was published in Grand Terrace City News, posted in three
public places and mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the site, in accordance
with noticing requirements. To date, staff has not received any comments.
CONCLUSION:
The proposed Project promotes economic development in the City by developing an
infill corner parcel, keeping an existing business in town in an upgrading and modern
facility and by creating commercial space for a future use. It is a great addition to the
City, and staff recommends adoption of the attached resolution approving the Project.
