MOORPARK PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT TO: Honorable Planning Commission FROM: Barry K. Hogan, Community Development Direc Prepared by Joseph Fiss, Principal Planner I t DATE: June 6, 2005 (Special PC Meeting of 6/14/05) SUBJECT: Consider Commercial Planned Development No. 2004 -02 to Allow Construction of a 19,539 Square Foot Retail Commercial Shopping Center on Approximately 1.62 Acres on the Southeast Corner Of Los Angeles Avenue and Park Lane on the Application of Kylexa Enterprises, LLC. BACKGROUND On April 26, 2005, the Planning Commission opened the public hearing and took public testimony on this project (staff report attached). The Planning Commission closed the public hearing and appointed an ad -hoc committee (Commissioner DiCecco and Vice -Chair Peskay) to work with the applicant and staff on architecture and landscape issues. The applicant was asked to resubmit plans incorporating the comments of the ad -hoc committee and return to the May 23, 2005 Planning Commission special meeting under consent agenda. Staff has worked closely with the applicant and the applicant's architect on preparing accurate plans which meet the direction of the ad -hoc committee. The applicant was unable to complete plans in time for the May 23rd Planning Commission special meeting, and has requested a ninety (90) day extension of the Permit Streamlining Act Requirements. At the May 23rd Planning Commission special meeting, the Planning Commission scheduled a special meeting for June 14, 2005. DISCUSSION The applicant redesigned the buildings and the parking area adjacent to the restaurant site. In addition, staff reevaluated the parking and worked with the applicant on revisions.

The table below shows the number of code required spaces and the total spaces provided. The provision of extra parking spaces will allow the applicant some flexibility in providing a variety of land uses, in particular, restaurant /food uses, which require more parking than retail uses.

The most substantive changes involved the overall architecture of Building "A" and elevation treatments of Building "B ", including finishes and consistency between floor plans, site plans, and elevations. The original agenda report described the architecture of the buildings as contemporary, with brightly - colored Mediterranean /European features and finishes. This is appropriate for what could be referred to as a "boutique" or pedestrian oriented shopping center. Consideration in the design has been given for location of business signs. There are a variety of roof pitches and building articulation, which create visual interest. Accessory structures (trash enclosures) have been designed to match 00('002 Honorable Planning Commission June 14, 2005 Page 3 the center architecturally, and include painted roll up doors to fully screen the trash bins. Staff has updated the Draft PC Resolution to address the modifications to the plan and to provide more appropriate Conditions of Approval. Findings Commercial Planned Development Permit Findings: The following draft findings are provided for Planning Commission consideration: A. The site design, including structure location, size, height, setbacks, massing, scale, architectural style and colors, and landscaping, is consistent with the provisions of the General Plan, any applicable Specific Plans, zoning ordinance, and other applicable regulations in that the proposed project meets or exceeds the Ordinance requirements for setbacks, parking, landscaping, and height, and meets or exceeds the existing General Plan and zoning designation requirements for the property. B. The site design would not create negative impacts on or impair the utility of properties, structures, or uses in the surrounding area in that the design includes provisions for reciprocal access with the property to the east and does not affect the use of the existing bank building west of the project site. C. The proposed uses are compatible with existing and permitted uses in the surrounding area in that the proposed building colors and architecture are designed to blend in with the other existing commercial buildings and the proposed buildings are located in such a manner so as not to cause problems with the use of the adjacent properties. PROCESSING TIME LIMITS Time limits have been established for the processing of development projects under the Permit Streamlining Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 4.5), the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 2), and the California Environmental Quality Act Statutes and Guidelines (Public Resources Code Division 13, and California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3) . Under the applicable provisions of these regulations, the following timelines have been established for action on this project: 00('kO03 Honorable Planning Commission June 14, 2005 Page 4 Date Application Determined Complete: Planning Commission Action Deadline: City Council Action Deadline: September ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION March 21, 2005 16, 2005 (90 -Day Extension) In accordance with the City's environmental review procedures adopted by resolution, the Community Development Director determines the level of review necessary for a project to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Some projects may be exempt from review based upon a specific category listed in CEQA. Other projects may be exempt under a general rule that environmental review is not necessary where it can be determined that there would be no possibility of significant effect upon the environment. A project which does not qualify for an exemption requires the preparation of an Initial Study to assess the level of potential environmental impacts. Based upon the results of an Initial Study, the Director may determine that a project will not have a significant effect upon the environment. In such a case, a Notice of Intent to Adopt a Negative Declaration or a Mitigated Negative Declaration is prepared. For many projects, a Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration will prove to be sufficient environmental documentation. If the Director determines that a project has the potential for significant adverse impacts and adequate mitigation can not be readily identified, an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is prepared. The Director has reviewed this project and found it to be Categorically Exempt in accordance with Section 15332 (Class 32: In -Fill Development Projects) of the California Code of Regulations (CEQA Guidelines). No further environmental documentation is required. STAFF RECOMMENDATION 1.

Hogan, Community Development Direc r Prepared by Joseph Fiss, Principal Planner V r' DATE: April 20, 2005 (PC Meeting of 4/26/05) SUBJECT: Consider Commercial Planned Development No. 2004 -02 to Allow Construction of a 19,539 Square Foot Retail Commercial Shopping Center on Approximately 1.62 Acres on the Southeast Corner Of Los Angeles Avenue and Park Lane on the Application of Kylexa Enterprises, LLC. BACKGROUND On August 19, 2004, an application for Commercial Planned Development Permit No. 2004 -02 was submitted for construction of a shopping center on approximately a 1.62 acre vacant parcel at the southeast corner of Los Angeles Avenue and Park Lane. The applicant is proposing 19,539 square feet of floor area, including a covered dining area. DISCUSSION Project Setting Existinq Site Conditions: The existing site is a relatively flat, unimproved "L" shaped parcel which extends from Los Angeles Avenue on the north to Park Crest Lane on the south. The immediate corner of Los Angeles Avenue and Park Lane is developed with an existing bank building, under separate ownership, and will not be a part of this center. Vegetation on the site consists of brush and weeds. There are no mature trees on site. Previous Aoolications: There have been no applications previously submitted for this site.

The applicant's proposal is allowed in the CPD (Commercial Planned Development) Zoning Classification. Project Summary Commercial Planned Development Permit No. 2004 -02: Parcel Pad Proposed Use Building Area (sq. ft.) 1 A Restaurant /Patio Dining* 5,340 2 B Commercial 14,199 Total 19,539 *Includes 1,235 square feet of patio dining area. Proposed Project Architecture: The architecture of the buildings is contemporary, with brightly - colored Mediterranean /European features and finishes. This is appropriate for what could be referred to as a "boutique" or pedestrian oriented shopping center. Consideration in the design has been given for location of business signs. There are a variety of roof pitches and building articulation, which create visual interest. Accessory structures (trash enclosures) have been designed to match the center architecturally, and include painted roll up doors to fully screen the trash bins. q .P t h --4 r- L- z - The minimum required building setback from Los Angeles Avenue is thirty (30') feet. Building "A" is proposed with a thirty (30') foot building setback from Los Angeles Avenue. An architectural 000®x.5 rabl - a i annina Commisslcf pr.1 2 611 , 2 0) 0 5 Page 3 pergola and fountain are proposed within the front setback area. The CPD process allows for flexibility of setbacks, subject to design criteria. This is further discussed in the Analysis section of the report. The required setback for buildings on corner lots in the CPD Zone is five 15') feet. Circulation: Access to the site will be restricted to Park Lane. Due to the proximity of the existing bank driveway on Los Angeles Avenue to the Park Lane intersection, an additional curb cut will not be permitted on Los Angeles Avenue. The applicant has negotiated an access agreement with the owner /developer of the adjacent commercial property to the east, which is currently in the City's review process. This is discussed in the Analysis Section below. Parking: Pad Proposed Use Spaces Required Spaces Provided A Restaurant B Retail 41 41 .....- _..... - - - - - - -- - - -... - -- - - -_... 57 62 Total 98 103 The proposed restaurant includes a patio dining area of 1,235 square feet. Under the parking ordinance, no parking is required for outdoor dining areas. The applicant is providing five (5) extra parking spaces in the center. Parking issues are discussed in detail in the Analysis section of this report. Landscaping: The City has adopted landscape guidelines for commercial developments. The applicant has proposed a landscape theme consistent with the guidelines and with the proposed Contemporary /Mediterranean architecture. The City has discouraged the use of Palm trees because they are often not in keeping with the spirit of the overall landscape design of the City, which favors more native trees and trees that have been historically imported to this area. Frequently, however, the use of Palms is desired because they are a very "California" tree and complement "tropical" or "Mediterranean" landscape themes. Therefore, they are allowed as accent trees, but do not count towards minimum tree requirements, for shade purposes, or as parking lot trees. The landscape plan is subject to review by the City's landscape consultant, who will determine if the number and placement of all plant materials and irrigation is appropriate. 00 "01.16 April 26, 2005 Pale 4 Site Improvements and National_ Pollution Discharge Elimination Standards Requirements (NPDES): The City Engineer has conditioned the project to provide for all necessary on -site and off -site storm drain improvements including the imposition of National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements. "Passive" Best Management Practices Drainage Facilities are required to be provided so that surface flows are intercepted and treated on the surface over biofilters (grassy swales), infiltration areas and other similar solutions. Air Quality: All commercial /industrial projects are required to off - -set air pollutants consistent with the 2003 Ventura County Air Quality Assessment Guidelines. Contribution to the Moorpark Traffic System Management Fund has been identified as a method to meet this requirement. ANALYSIS Issues Staff analysis of the proposed project has identified the following areas for Planning Commission consideration in their recommendation to the City Council: • Circulation Sethacks • Parking Circulation: The applicant has negotiated an access agreement with the owner /developer of the adjacent commercial property to the east. This will allow customer traffic entering from Los Angeles Avenue to access this shopping center. The access agreement will allow encroachment of a portion of some parking spaces, and will allow access between the two properties for parking and circulation purposes. Though access would otherwise be allowed on Park Crest Lane, the applicant is also proposing a shared access with the property to the east. A condition of approval has been .included which requires a mutual access agreement between the two properties, recorded prior to issuance of zoning clearance for grading. (An application has been submitted for a 74,818 square foot commercial center on the property to the east.) If the proposed shopping center to the east is not built concurrently with this project, the parking lot for this project will still provide 0000.'' '1 ?n le °iarin.Arlg Cc, m, 3siOn' Apri11 26' 2005 ;age 5 sufficient accessible parking. Setbacks. The Commercial Planned Development process allows for flexibility and :creativity of development standards. In commercial projects, there is usually not a need or a desire to allow setbacks other than those required by code. However, in this case, the applicant is proposing an architectural pergola structure and a monument sign within the front setback on Los Angeles Avenue. Staff supports the concept of allowing the pergola, because it adds visual interest and articulation to the street scene. However, a monument sign in addition to the pergola at this location would create visual clutter, inconsistent with the design of the center and the goals of the Commercial Planned Development Zone. A condition of approval has been added, restricting the pergola to a fifteen (15') foot front setback from Los Angeles Avenue and prohibiting a monument sign within the required thirty (30') foot front setback. Parking: The proposed restaurant includes a patio dining area of 1,235 square feet. Under the parking ordinance, no parking is required for outdoor dining areas. One - hundred -three parking spaces are proposed for the entire center, which exceeds the required parking by five (5) parking spaces. In addition, the overall parking ratio for the center exceeds a ratio of five (5) parking spaces per one - thousand (1000) square feet, which is an industry- accepted standard for mixed use centers. Staff finds the parking provided sufficient for the center. No additional conditions are required for Parking, provided that a minimum of ninety -eight (98) parking spaces are provided. Findings Commercial Planned Development Permit Findings: The following draft findings are provided for Planning Commission consideration: A. The site design, including structure location, size, height, setbacks, massing, scale, architectural style and colors, and landscaping, is consistent with the provisions of the general plan, any applicable specific plans, zoning ordinance, and other applicable regulations in that the proposed ,project meets or exceeds the Ordinance requirements for setbacks, parking, landscaping, and height, and meets or exceeds the existing General Plan and zoning designation requirements for the property. 000018 April 26, 2005 Wage 6 B. The site design would not create negative impacts on or impair the utility of properties, structures, or uses in the surrounding area in that the design includes provisions for reciprocal access with the property to the east and does not affect the use of the existing bank building west of the project site. C. The proposed uses are compatible with uses in the surrounding area in that colors and architecture are designed other existing commercial buildings and are located in such a manner so as not the use of the adjacent properties. PROCESSING TIME LIMITS existing and permitted the proposed building to blend in with the the proposed buildings to cause problems with Time limits have been established for the processing of development projects under the Permit Streamlining Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 4.5), the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 2), and the California Environmental Quality Act Statutes and Guidelines (Public Resources Code Division 13, and California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3). Under the applicable provisions of these regulations, the following timelines have been established for action on this project: Date Application Determined Complete: March 21, 2005 Planning Commission Action Deadline: City Council Action Deadline: June 19, 2005 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION In accordance with the City's environmental review procedures adopted by resolution, the Community Development Director determines the level of review necessary for a project to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

This is appropriate for a pedestrian oriented shopping center. Consideration in the design has been given for location of business Honorable Planning Commission June 14, 2005 Page 3 signs, although a sign program will be required as a condition of approval. There are a variety of roof pitches and building articulation, which create visual interest. Accessory structures (trash enclosures) have been designed to match the center architecturally, and include painted roll up doors to fully screen the trash bins. A variety of outdoor sculptures and water features are provided. Parking is de- emphasized by keeping buildings "F" and "G" close to the front setback and providing ample landscaping in the parking lot. Tower features, trellises, columns and other visual features are provided to further enhance the architecture. Architecture and design is discussed further in the analysis section. Rf— hark.q The minimum required building setback from Los Angeles Avenue is thirty (301) feet. Building "G" is set back thirty feet from (301) from Los Angeles Avenue and Building "F" is set back approximately sixty -seven feet (671) from Los Angeles Avenue. The required setback for buildings on corner lots in the CPD Zone is five (5') feet. Building "H" is set back approximately twenty feet (201) from Moorpark Avenue. A twenty foot (20') set back is required from Park Crest Lane. The main building is set back a minimum of sixty feet (601) from Park Crest Lane, with the majority of the building set back more than one - hundred feet (1001). Circulation: Two driveways are provided from Los Angeles Avenue, lined up with the driveways of the shopping center on the north side of Los Angeles Avenue. One (1) driveway will be provided on Moorpark Avenue, and two (2) additional driveways will be provided on Park Crest Lane. The applicant has negotiated a reciprocal access agreement with the owner /developer of the adjacent commercial property to the west, which is also currently in the City's review process. One (1) additional driveway will be provided through this property. On -site and off -site circulation issues are further discussed in the Analysis Section below. 0()lOOS3 Honorable Planning Commission June 14, 2005 Page 4 Parking: Pad Proposed Use Building Area (sq.ft.) /(Parking Ratio) Spaces Required A Retail 5,773 (1:300sf) 20 . .................................................................................................................................

The proposed restaurant includes patio dining areas and courtyards. Under the parking ordinance, no parking is required for outdoor dining and seating areas. Parking issues are discussed in detail in the Analysis section of this report. Landscaping /Lighting: The City has adopted landscape guidelines for commercial developments. The applicant has proposed a landscape theme consistent with the guidelines and with the proposed Contemporary /Mediterranean architecture. The City has discouraged the use of Palm trees because they are often not in keeping with the spirit of the overall landscape design of the City, which favors more native trees and trees that have been historically imported to this area. Frequently, however, the use of Palms is desired because they are a very "California" tree and complement "tropical" or "Mediterranean" landscape themes. Therefore, they are allowed as accent trees, but do not count towards minimum tree requirements, for shade purposes, or as parking lot trees. The landscape plan is subject to review by the City's landscape consultant, who will determine if the number and placement of all plant materials and irrigation is appropriate. The applicant has provided a conceptual lighting plan,. Lighting must be an integral part of the architectural design. Lighting must not be obscured by landscaping and must be consistent with the architecture of the buildings. The lighting plan is :subject to review by the City's lighting consultant who will determine if the lighting is consistent with the City's requirements. An additional condition of approval has been added, requiring that lighting Honorable Planning Commission June 14, 2005 Page 5 fixtures be architecturally compatible with the buildings and landscaping. Site Improvements and National Pollution Discharge Elimination Standards Requirements (NPDES): The City Engineer has conditioned the project to provide for all necessary on -site and off -site storm drain improvements; including the imposition of National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements. "Passive" Best Management Practices Drainage Facilities are required to be provided so that surface flows are intercepted and treated on the surface over biofilters (grassy swales), infiltration areas and other similar solutions. Air Quality: All commercial/ industrial projects are required to off -set air pollutants consistent with the 2003 Ventura County Air Quality Assessment Guidelines. Contribution to the Moorpark Traffic System Management Fund has been identified as a method to meet this requirement. ANALYSIS Issues Staff analysis of the proposed areas for Planning Commission to the City Council: • Architecture • Circulation • Setbacks • Parking Architecture: project has identified the following consideration in their recommendation There are minor plan inconsistencies, in particular, with architectural details on the south side of Buildings "A" and "C ". A condition of approval has been added, requiring that the enhanced architecture shown on the elevations be provided on the final drawings. Building "H" is proposed as The architecture of the fii articulation of the fagade. stucco wall with nondescript scale and proportion with the approval has been added that a two story office /retail building. •st story includes stone veneer and the second story elevation is a flat commercial windows which are out of rest of the building. A condition of the second story windows be modified, 00 "0610 Honorable Planning Commission June 14, 2005 Page 6 subject to review and approval Director. of the Community Development Building "B" includes a round tower feature with tall narrow windows around the circumference. The scale of the windows is appropriate, however, as with Building "H ", the window surrounds should be treated, albeit in an understated manner. A condition of approval has been added that the second story windows be modified, subject to review and approval of the Community Development Director. In addition, conditions of approval have been added, prohibiting any visible roof ladders, equipment, vents, exterior drains and scuppers and that all ground mounted utility boxes and shall be screened with landscaping. All gas, electric, and water meters shall also be screened to the degree allowable by the utility companies, and subject to the review and approval of the! Community Development Director. Circulation: The applicant has negotiated an access agreement with the owner /developer of the adjacent commercial property to the west. This will allow customer traffic entering from Los Angeles Avenue to access both shopping centers from any of the four surrounding streets. The access agreement will allow encroachment of a portion of some parking spaces, and will allow access between the two properties for parking and circulation purposes. A condition of approval has been included which requires a mutual access agreement between the two properties, recorded prior to issuance of zoning clearance for grading. If the proposed shopping center to the west is not built concurrently with this project, the parking lot for this project will still provide sufficient accessible parking. The plans show a "drive- through" window and lane on the south side of Building "G". The design of the shopping center would not accommodate a fast -food use in this location. It is anticipated that this "drive- through" could accommodate a bank teller window, or an ATM, or perhaps a pharmacy or coffee shop window. Any of these uses do not require as much vehicle stacking area as a fast food restaurant and do not require a location /speaker for ordering. A condition of approval has been added clarifying the use of this "drive- through" area. Access from the easterly driveway on Los Angeles Avenue will be restricted to right -in /right out movements only. A condition of approval will be included that, if determined necessary, a deceleration lane will be provided on the west side of the westerly 0000C,I Honorable Planning Commission June 14, 2005 Page 7 driveway, subject to review and approval of the Community Development Director and City Engineer. Access from Park Lane, Park Crest Lane and Moorpark Avenue will provide sufficient opportunities to access Los Angeles Avenue, either eastbound or westbound, at controlled intersections. Setbacks: The Commercial Planned Development process allows for flexibility and creativity of development standards. The applicant has not requested any reduction in setback requirements. If a deceleration lane is required on Los Angeles Avenue, the Community Development Director may consider a reduction of the required thirty foot (301) setback for the length of the lane. If a reduced setback is not permitted, the applicant will be required to redesign that portion of the project adjacent to the deceleration lane. This may include reducing the number of parking spaces, and proportionally reducing the building area to maintain a legal parking ratio. Parking: The applicant is proposing 376 parking spaces, which exceeds the code requirement by eight (8) spaces. Parking layouts may change during the plan check process or subsequent modification; or permit adjustments; however, the parking ratio may never be reduced below that required by code. Consistent with the pedestrian orientation of the center, patio dining areas and courtyards are included. Under the parking ordinance, no parking is required for outdoor dining and seating areas. An industry standard ratio for parking in commercial "centers" is five parking spaces per thousand gross square feet of floor area (5:1000), as this allows for flexibility between retail, office, and restaurant tenants. Using this standard ratio, the required parking would be 372 spaces. Staff has added a condition of approval requiring, that, regardless of tenant mix or future modifications, the parking ratio shall never be less than five (5) parking spaces per one - thousand (1000) square feet of gross floor area. Findings Commercial Planned Development Permit Findings: The following draft findings are provided for Planning Commission consideration: A. The site design, including structure location, size, height, setbacks, massing, scale, architectural style and colors, and landscaping, is consistent with the provisions of the general plan, any applicable specific plans, zoning ordinance, and other applicable regulations in that the proposed project meets or exceeds the Ordinance requirements for setbacks, 004_:O Honorable Planning Commission June 14, 2005 Page 8 parking, landscaping, and height, and meets or exceeds the existing General Plan and zoning designation requirements for the property. B. The site design would not create negative impacts on or impair the utility of properties, structures, or uses in the surrounding area in that the design includes provisions for reciprocal access with the property to the west and does not affect the use of neighboring properties and buildings. C. The proposed uses are compatible with existing and. permitted uses in the surrounding area in that the proposed building colors and architecture are designed to blend in with the other existing commercial buildings and the proposed buildings are located in such a manner so as not to cause problems with the use of the adjacent properties. PROCESSING TIME LIMITS Time limits have been established for the processing of development projects under the Permit Streamlining Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 4.5), the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 2), and the California Environmental Quality Act Statutes and Guidelines (Public Resources Code Division 13, and California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3) . Under the applicable provisions of these regulations, the following timelines have been established for action on this project: Date Application Determined Complete: March 21, 2005 Planning Commission Action Deadline: n/a City Council Action Deadline: 60 days after City Council adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration, not later than November 15, 2005 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION In accordance with the City's environmental review procedures adopted by resolution, the Community Development Director determines the level of review necessary for a project to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Some projects may be exempt from review based upon a specific category listed in CEQA. Other projects may be exempt under a general rule that environmental review is not necessary where it can be determined that there would be no possibility of significant effect upon the environment. A project which does not qualify for an exemption requires the preparation of an Initial Study to assess the level of potential environmental impacts. 000OC3 Honorable Planning Commission June 14, 2005 Page 9 Based upon the results of an Initial Study, the Director may determine that a project will not have a significant effect upon the environment. In such a case, a Notice of Intent -to Adopt a Negative Declaration or a Mitigated Negative Declaration is prepared. For many projects, a Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration will prove to be sufficient environmental documentation. If the Director determines that a project has the potential for significant adverse impacts and adequate mitigation can not be readily identified, an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is prepared. The Director has reviewed this project and has determined through the preparation of an Initial Study that this project, with the inclusion of mitigation measures, would not have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, a Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared, to be considered for adoption by the City Council. STAFF RECOMMENDATION 1. Continue to accept public testimony and close the public hearing. 2.

Hogan, Community Development Direct Prepared by Jared Rosengren, Contract Planne DATE: April 20, 2005 (PC Meeting of 4/26/2005) SUBJECT: Consider Modification No. 4 to Commercial Planned Development Permit No. 1990 -02, for the Build -Out of Three (3) Existing Pad Areas with 17,324 Sq. Ft. of Commercial /Retail Space and Conditional Use Permit No. 2005 -01 to Allow a 7,724 Square Foot Fitness Center within 100 Feet of Residentially -zoned Property, on an 11.79 -Acre Site at 4279 Tierra Rejada Road, on the Application of Constantino Noval BACKGROUND Commercial Planned Development No. 1990 -02 for construction of a 122,400 sq. ft. commercial center was approved by the City Council on December 19, 1990. The original project has been modified numerous times for reduction in building sizes, relocation of buildings, hours of operation, signs, time extensions and the build -out of other pads. A condition of approval requires all pad buildings to obtain the approval of a Minor Modification to the Permit prior to issuance of a Zoning Clearance for Construction. Since the time this condition was adopted, the Minor Modification process has been eliminated, and the Community Development Director has determined that a Modification is the appropriate process for the review of the pad buildings. The applicant has filed a request for a Modification to build 17,324 sq. ft. of building space on three (3) existing vacant pad areas. The applicant is also requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow a 7,724 sq. ft. fitness center within 100 ft. of a residentially -zoned property. The Modification requires consideration by City Council; the Conditional Use Permit will also be considered concurrently by the City Council. The Planning Commission is an advisory body on both entitlements. PC ATTACHMENT 1 0O(1, 1, S: \Community Development \DEV PMTS \C U P \2005 \01 Mtn. Meadows Plaza \Agenda Rpts \CPDP Mod 4.c Honorable Planning Commission April 26, 2005 Page 2 DISCUSSION Project Setting Existinq Site Conditions: The nine (9) separate lots that make up the 11.79 -acre Mountain Meadows Shopping Center are located on the southwest corner of Tierra Rejada Road and Mountain Trail Street. The Spanish style shopping center consists of two (2) anchor spaces (one used by Vons supermarket, the second currently vacant), two (2) multi - tenant retail areas ( "Shops #1" and "Shops #2 "), two (2) stand -alone pads that have buildings (B and C), two (2) vacant stand - alone pads (A and D), and a vacant pad south of the supermarket and. west of existing "Shops 1" tenant spaces. Previous Applications: Commercial Planned Development No. 1990 -02, for the construction of a commercial center on the project site, was originally approved on December 19, 1990, but was not built at the time. Major Modification No. 1, approved on December 6, 1995, allowed the construction of Mountain Meadows Plaza with the current design and conditions of approval. The grocery store, drug store and tenant spaces in- between were constructed first. Since 1995, several minor modifications have been processed, primarily focusing on architecture, site plan, signage and hours of operation. On January 5, 2000, the City Council approved Minor Modification Nos. 7 and 8 to construct separate buildings on Pads "B" and "C ", where the restaurants and real estate offices are now located.

An arcade (covered walkway) is proposed on the front and rear elevations. The height of the proposed building is twenty -eight (28') feet high. The proposed building height meets Zoning Code requirements. The submitt=ed floor plan shows the potential of four (4) separate tenant suites. Honorable Planning Commission April 26, 2005 Page 4 Addition to Shop #1 The architectural design is consistent with the existing center, which is Spanish style. The proposed building incorporates multi- color stucco walls, mission the roof, timber beams underneath the roofline and pilasters with colors. An arcade (covered walkway) is proposed on the south elevation. The height of the proposed building ranges from eighteen (18') feet to twenty (20') feet high. The proposed building heights meet Zoning Code requirements. The submitted floor plan shows a fitness center and an 828 sq. ft. retail suite. The fitness center is discussed further under the analysis section below. Signage: A separate Sign_Permit application is required and all signs are to be consistent with approved signage for the shopping, center, subject to the review and approval of the Community Development Director. Setbacks: A thirty (30') foot landscaped setback will be provided from both Mountain Trail Street and Tierra Rejada Road to buildings A and D. This meets the Municipal Code requirement of a 30 -foot setback from a four (4) lane arterial, as designated by the Circulation Element of the General Plan. All proposed building setbacks are consistent with Zoning Code requirements. Circulation: The existing shopping center has been designed with appropriate on- site circulation including the build -out of the proposed project.

Parking is discussed in additional detail in the analysis section below. Loadinq Area: Section 17.32 of the Zoning Ordinance requires each building to provide at least one (1) loading space if the gross floor area of the building exceeds 3,000 square feet, unless waived! by the Community Development Director. In this case, adequate loading /unloading areas have been provided throughout the center, located within reasonable distance from the service entrance to each of the proposed buildings. Landscaping: The proposed project does not include the removal of any trees. No details or specifications of any landscaping were included with the project submittal_. A condition of approval in the attached resolution requires the submission and approval of a landscape plan prior to issuance of a Zoning Clearance for construction of the buildings to ensure that new landscaping is compatible with existing landscaping for the shopping center. Site Improvements and National Pollution Discharge Elimination Standards Requirements (NPDES): The City Engineer has conditioned the project to provide for all necessary on -site and off -site storm drain improvements including the imposition of National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements. "Passive" Best Management Practices drainage facilities are required to be provided, to the maximum extent feasible, so that surface flows are intercepted and treated on the surface over biofilters (grassy swales), infiltration areas and other similar solutions. Air Quality: All commercial /industrial projects are required to off - -set air pollutants consistent with the 2003 Ventura County Air Quality Assessment Guidelines. Contribution to the Moorpark Traffic System Management Fund has been identified as a method to meet this requirement. The original developer of CPD No. 1990 -02 has paid the required contribution for the entire center, including the undeveloped pad areas. 0 () (- JL - Honorable Planning Commission April 26, 2005 Page 6 ANALYSTS Issues Staff analysis of the proposed project has identified the following areas for Planning Commission consideration in their recommendation to the City Council: • Parking • Proximity of Fitness Center to Residential Uses Parking: The new buildings will be adding to the parking demand of the shopping center without adding additional parking spaces. The center was designed to ultimately include this additional building space. As shown in the parking calculations above, the center has sufficient parking for the additional buildings, with forty -five (450) percent more parking than required by Code. Proximity of Fitness Center to Residential Uses Large fitness centers can generate a substantial amount of activity in the parking lot and result in spillover noise. However, the proposed fitness center at under 7,000 square feet and without shower facilities is not expected to draw the volume of patrons that may result in a neighborhood nuisance. Condition of Approval No. 7 of City Council Resolution No. 1995 -1164 limits the hours of operation of all tenants in Mountain Meadows Plaza from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 P.M. Any request to extend the hours of operation requires public notification to property owners within 1,,000 feet of the site. This condition, along with all other conditions of Resolution No. 1995 -1164, would apply to any new construction in the shopping center. In addition, a condition is recommended to ensure that any massage businesses or technicians that may be associated with the fitness use are properly licensed by the City. Findings Modification No. 4 to Commercial Planned Development Permit No. 1990 -02 A. The proposed use would not have a substantial adverse impact on surrounding properties in that the existing shopping center was designed with the eventual build -out of vacant pads, the new buildings are consistent with the existing center, any proposed use requesting to occupy the new buildings would be required to conform to the CPD zone, and parking is adequate. B. The proposed use would not change any findings contained in the environmental documentation prepared for the permit, in 00C11123 Honorable Planning Commission April 26, 2005 Page 7 that the effects of the proposed project were adequately analyzed in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, Initial Study and Mitigated Monitoring Program prepared for CPD No. 1990 -02. Conditional Use Permit No. 2005 -01 A. The proposed use, as conditioned, is consistent with the provisions of the City's General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and any other applicable regulations, in that a fitness center is an allowed use in the CPD zone. B. The proposed use is compatible with both existing and permitted land uses in the surrounding area in that the fitness center is an appropriate expansion of the existing commercial- uses on site and, operating within the hours permitted for the shopping center, is a compatible use adjacent to a residential neighborhood. C. The proposed use is compatible with the scale,, visual character, and design of the surrounding properties; in that the fitness center has been designed on a vacant building pad intended for a development of this scale and is consistent with the existing architecture of the shopping center. D. The proposed use will not be obnoxious or harmful, or impair the utility of the neighboring properties or uses, in that the fitness center is conditioned to comply with all existing conditions of approval adopted for the existing shopping center, including limited hours of operation, and sufficient parking is provided at the shopping center. E. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, convenience, or welfare, in that the fitness center is conditioned to comply with all existing conditions of approval adopted for the existing shopping center, including_ limited hours of operation. PROCESSING TIME LIMITS Time limits have been established for the processing of development projects under the Permit Streamlining Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 4.5), the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Title 7, Division 2), and the California Environmental Quality Act Statutes and Guidelines (Public Resources Code Division 13, and California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3). Under the applicable provisions of these regulations, the following --imelines have been established for action on this project: ®0'129 Honorable Planning Commission April 26, 2005 Page 8 Date Application Determined Complete: March 25, 2005 Planning Commission Action Deadline: Not Applicable City Council Action Deadline: June 19, 2005 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION In accordance with the City's environmental review procedures adopted by resolution, the Community Development Director determines the level of review necessary for a project to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Some projects may be exempt from review based upon a specific category listed in CEQA. Other projects may be exempt under a general rule that environmental review is not necessary where it can be determined that there would be no possibility of significant effect upon the environment. A project which does not qualify for an exemption requires the preparation of an Initial Study to assess the level of potential environmental impacts. Based upon the results of an Initial Study, the Director may determine that a project will not have a significant effect upon the environment. In such a case, a Notice of Intent to Adopt a Negative Declaration or a Mitigated Negative Declaration is prepared. For many projects, a Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration will prove to be sufficient environmental documentation. If the Director determines that a project has the potential for significant adverse impacts and adequate mitigation can not be readily identified, an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is prepared. The Director has reviewed this project and found it to be Categorically Exempt in accordance with Section 15332 (Class 32: In -Fill Development Projects) of the California Code of Regulations (CEQA Guidelines). No further environmental documentation is required. STAFF RECOMLMNDATION 1. Open the public hearing, accept public testimony and close the public hearing. 2.
