Traffenstedt, Acting Director of Community Development Prepared by Paul Porter, Principal Planner DATE: November 8, 2000 (CC Meeting of 11/15/2000) SUBJECT: Consider General Plan Amendment (GPA) 99 -5 to Change the Land Use Designation From C -2 (General Commercial) to I -2 (Medium Industrial) and Zone Change -99 -5 to Change the Zoning Designation From CPD (Commercial Planned Development) to M -2 (Limited Industrial) on the Application of Triliad Development, Inc. BACKGROUND Description of Request General Plan Amendment No. 99 -5 is a request to change the Land Use designation on approximately 10.75 -acres of a 32.65 -acre parcel from C -2 (General Commercial) to I -2 (Medium Industrial). The remainder of the property is designated I -2 (Medium Industrial). Zone Change No. 99 -5 is a request to change the zoning designation on approximately 10.75 acres of a 32.65 -acre parcel of land from CPD (Commercial Planned Development) to M -2 (Limited Industrial). The subject property is located on the north side of Los Angeles Avenue, west of Gabbert Road and the Southern California Edison substation, and northwest of the intersection of Butter Creek Road and Los Angeles Avenue. Planning Commission Action On September 25, 2000, the Planning Commission recommended to the City Council approval of General Plan Amendment 99 -5 and Zone Change 99 -5 10. Honorable City Council November 8, 2000 Page 2 Applicant's Submittal for Industrial Planned Development Permit Nos. 99 -5 thru 10 The current property owner has submitted six (6) Industrial Planned Development Permits for six (6) industrial buildings (Industrial Planned Development Permit Nos. 99 -5 99 -10). The applications for Industrial Planned Development Permits Nos. 99- 5 - 99 -10 have not yet been deemed complete. These Industrial Planned Development Permits are a request to construct six (6) buildings in a Corporate Business Park environment. Two building layouts have been submitted for review for each lot for the purpose of setting the minimum and maximum office space (mezzanine area) and parking stalls for each lot. As proposed, access to the site would be from Los Angeles Avenue to the proposed north -south arterial connector located along the west property line to a cul -de -sac. The proposed north -south connector will link the Highway 118 bypass to Los Angeles Avenue. This north -south connector will also provide access to Highway 118 for the remaining industrial zoned parcels located to the west of the subject site. Each of the two building sizes submitted for each of six (6) proposed lots have similar building elevations with an alternative building footprint and parking ratio depending on the type of industrial user, which allows for tenant flexibility. The total square footage of the six (6) buildings, as proposed, ranges from 558,122 to 595,878 square feet. DISCUSSION On October 18, 2000, a public hearing was held by the City Council on this proposed General Plan Amendment and Zone Change, in conjunction with General Plan Amendment (GPA) No. 99 -2 and Zone Change (ZC) 99 -4 on the application of Pacific Communities, based on the limitation of General Plan Amendments that can be considered per year. The City Council took action to approve GPA 99 -2 and ZC 99 -4 on the application of Pacific Communities, as there was no objection regarding the change from commercial to residential uses, and directed staff to advertise GPA 99 -5 and ZC 99 -5 for the City Council meeting of November 15, 2000. WOR_PRI SERMity SharelCommunity DeG&lopmentlEveryonelCity CounciiAgenda Reportslcc -001115 Triliad City Council staffreporLdoc Honorable City Council November 8, 2000 Page 3 Concerns were expressed by the public and the City Council at the October 18 meeting regarding changes to the General Plan designation from C -2 to I -2 (GPA 99 -5) and a change in zoning designation from CPD to M -2 (ZC 99 -5) related to compatibility of the types of industrial uses allowed in the M -2 Zone with the residential property located south of Los Angeles Avenue in the area of Butter Creek Road, and the potential for increased truck traffic along State Route 118. General Plan Amendment and Zone Changes Alternatives In an effort to address Council. concerns relating to compatible uses and truck traffic, staff suggests a review of the following alternatives: 1. Approval of requested General Plan and Zone Change, with Dedication of Development Rights Agreement for the entire 32.65 -acre parcel, and through the development plan process design the project to limit uses which might produce significant amounts of truck traffic. This option would require an Agreement between the property owner and the City whereby M -2 zoning would be approved subject to the property owner providing an acceptable "Offer of Development Rights" which would limit the types of uses on the 32.65 -acre property. This agreement would limit uses on the property to those deemed compatible with the surrounding properties and deemed acceptable to the City. The Agreement could be structured so as to not affect the City's right to rezone the property in the future, or the property owner's right to petition the City for consideration to amend the agreement in the future. Specific issues related to the initiation of specific uses and structures would be subject to site plan review through the Industrial Planned Development (IPD) review process. Through the site plan review process, buildings could be required to be designed to consistent with the goal of limiting truck traffic, such as limiting the number of loading bays and bay doors, limiting square footage devoted to warehousing and manufacturing uses, and increasing both the square footage for office uses and AMOK PRl SERVICitySharelCommunityDevelopmentlEveryonelCityCouncilAgendaReportslcc- 001115TriliadCityCouncilstaffreport .doc Honorable City Council November 8, 2000 Page 4 the number of employee parking spaces. This would further ensure that truck dependent uses, such as distribution facilities, would be precluded. This alternative would serve the purpose of limiting uses to those which are more employee intensive and less dependent on large trucks. With this option, the City Council would'need to concurrently act on the aforementioned Development Rights Agreement. 2. Consider General Plan Amendment Land Use Designation of I -1 (Light Industrial) and zoning designation of M -1 (Industrial Park District). This alternative would allow for approximately 10.75 acres of a 32.65 -acre parcel to have a General Plan Designation of I -1 and Zoning Designation of M -1 with the remainder having a General Plan Designation of I -2 and Zoning Designation of M -2 or the entire 32.65 -acre parcel could be considered for I -1 and M -1. This alternative would provide additional area for development of light industrial, technical research and related business office uses in an industrial park context, in conjunction with the stringent standards of building design, noise, landscaping and performance. This alternative would not be consistent with the existing I -2 General Plan land use designation and M -2 zoning for the properties located to the north, east and west of the site, and would be inconsistent with the applicant °s proposed site plan layout for the buildings proposed for Industrial Planned Development Permit Nos. 99 -5 - 99 -10. In addition, this alternative would require that the matter be referred back to the Planning Commission for consideration. If this option is selected, the General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Industrial Planned Development Permits and Tentative Tract Map could be processed concurrently. 11MOR PR1 SERVICity SharelCommunity DevelopmentlEveryonelCity Council Agenda Reportslcc- 001115 Ti iad City Council staff report.doc Honorable City Council November 8, 2000 Page 5 3. Maintain the General Plan designation of C -2 (General Commercial) and CPD (Commercial Planned Development). This property was the subject of a General Plan Amendment from a land use designation of I -2 to C -2 and a change in zoning from M -2 to CPD in 1992, as a result of a request from the then property owner, Bugle Boy Industries. The reason for this change on approximately 10.75 of the I total 32.65 acres was to accommodate future retail sales of on -site manufactured products. As such, the commercial designation was appropriate as it gave Bugle Boy Industries a mechanism to sell goods manufactured at their facility. The site has since been sold to a developer who intends to utilize the entire site for industrial purposes. Maintaining the existing commercial land use designation would be inconsistent with the designation of the surrounding properties to the north east and west and would allow commercial uses in an area where no other commercial activities exist. There would be no direct access to Los Angeles Avenue for the property and little or no visibility from the street, which are both important to commercial users. For the Council's information, the Municipal Code currently allows Retail Sales in the M -1 and M -2 Industrial Zones under the following provision: a) The areas used for retail may not exceed twenty percent (20 %) of the entire floor area of the building; b) In the case of an industrial complex under a single cumulative floor area of all buildings, twenty percent (20 %) of the cumulative floor area may be used by any one (1) building for retail use; and c) Temporary retail sales may be allowed under the provisions of a temporary use permit and verification of a State Board of Equalization seller's permit. The temporary permit shall be granted upon the stipulation that the sales activity occur no more than once per month and not on more than three (3) consecutive days. Based on the above factors, staff does not recommend maintaining the C -2 land use designation and CPD zoning for the 10.75 -acre portion of the 32.65 -acre parcel.

Approve the General Plan Amendment and Zone Change as submitted. With this alternative, the City would have limited ability to not allow an M -2 Zone permitted use, such as a distribution center that typically has more truck traffic than other types of industrial uses. The decision - making body could minimize potential undesirable uses, which would be heavily dependent on truck traffic, through the Industrial Planned Development Permit process for the design of the buildings and site layout. STAFF RECOMMENDATION 1. Open the public hearing and accept public testimony; 2. Consider the Negative Declaration prepared for the requested General Plan Amendment and Zone Change prior to making a decision on the General Plan Amendment and Zone Change; 3. Approve staff report Alternative 1 and continue the Public Hearing (open) to December 6, 2000; and 4. Direct staff to: Prepare the Dedication of Development Rights Agreement for the entire 32.65 acre parcel, bring back the Resolution for approval of General Plan Amendment No. 99 -5, and the 'Ordinance for Zone Change No. 99 -5 for the City Council meeting on December 6, 2000.
