51. That plans for the installation of an automatic fire extinguishing

SHERIFF DEPARTMENT CONDITIONS:
57. All parking areas should be provided with a lighting system
capable of illuminating the parking surface with a minimum
of one footcandle of light at ground level. The lighting
system shall be designed to minimize the spillage of light
onto adjacent properties. Walkways, aisles, stairs, and
passageways should be provided with a lighting system of
at least .25 footcandle at the ground level. All exterior
lighting candle devices should be protected by weather
and breakage resistant covers. Law enforcement has discovered
that good lighting in industrial areas have kept certain
crimes such as vehicle burglaries, thefts, rapes and vandalisms
to a minimum. Law enforcement has also found that with good
lighting, less employee injuries, such as falls, take place
which helps to keep civil liabilities to a minimum. If these
conditions are not met during the building phase and the
buildings are eventually sold, the new owner will, in most
cases, neglect these precautionary measures.

SHERIFF DEPARTMENT CONDITIONS: (cont.)
58. The street address should be capable of being illuminated
and should be located so as to be easily visible on all side
of the building. The numerals should be no less than 5 inches
in height and of a color contrasting to the background. This
procedure assists in shortening response time of emergency
vehicles to the building. This may not be an immediate problem,
however, as the industrial area fills with numerous buildings
it will become an important issue.
59. All exterior doors should be of a solid core wood or metal
construction and should have one -inch dead bolt locks. Metal
doors are preferred as burglars can cut through solid wood
doors fairly easy.
60. Due to the remote area in which the building will be located,
an alarm system should be installed. This system should
be wired to all doors and windows. Law enforcement has experienced
a higher percentage of commercial burglaries to buildings
in remote areas with no alarm systems, during night hours
when no employee(s) are on the premises.
61. Any permanently affixed ladders leading to the roof should
be fully enclosed with sheet metal in an approved manner
to a height of 10 feet. The covering should be locked
against the ladder with a case hardened clasp, secured with
non - removable screws or bolts. Law enforcement has experienced
numerous burglaries into commercial buildings at night via
roof vents where ladders leading to the roof were available.
62. Any landscaping work done near driveway entrances and exits
or intersections within the parking lot area should be carefully
planned so that it does not in any way impair sight distance.
Only low -lying shrubbery should be planted in these areas
so that a driver seated in a vehicle does not have to partially
enter the street or parking lot area in order to gain a clear
view of on- coming or thru traffic. Shrubbery should be no
more than three feet in height and trees whose canopies fall
towards the ground should not fall below eye level. This
is required so that the view of any vehicle in these areas
will have the ability to visually scan the area in front
of them. Any landscaping has sufficiently reduced "fender
benders" within large parking lot areas. It has also reduced,
and in some cases, eliminated injuries to pedestrians.
63. Commercial burglary is a crime that is ever increasing in
frequency of occurrance. It is recommended that adequate
crime preventative measures be taken to assure maximum protection
from the burglar when the project is completed. These measures
include, in addition to the lighting and landscaping areas
mentioned above, using security hardware on doors and windows.
CONDITIONS FOR:

SHERIFF DEPARTMENT CONDITIONS: (cont.)
64. All driveways should be a minimum of 30 feet wide with radius
curb returns. This allows vehicles entering and exiting the
property to do so easier and smoother and, therefore, eliminates
a large percentage of rear -end accidents caused by a vehicle
slowing to a stop and then making a hard right turn.
65. Inherently, construction sites experience problems with thefts,
vandalisms and trespassers, substantiating the need for extra
patrol. Due to the large patrol area and the low number of
units deployed, it is recommended that the developers provide
construction site security by utilizing licensed private
guards. If a private security guard is not used, it would
be our recommendation for the developers to erect a temporary
fence surrounding the construction site. This has proved
to be an effective detour for these types of crimes.
66. There are no concerns at this time regarding V -4247 other
than the entrance /exit width - refer to 32 above.
ADDITIONAL CITY ENGINEER CONDITIONS:
67. Driveway entrance along Los Angeles Avenue shall be constructed
per plate B -13 B 30 feet wide with 10 foot radius curb returns
and shall be stripped and signed to reflect no left turn
into or out of the driveway.
68. Developer shall provide an easement to property to the north
for ingress and egress purposes.
ADDITIONAL PLANNING DIVISION CONDITIONS:
69. Prior to issuance of a Zone Clearance, a Variance must be
issued for a zero side yard set back and elimination of one
loading zone.
70. Prior to issuance of a Zone Clearance, a revised site plan
and elevations must be approved by the Director of Community
Development reflecting the recommendations of staff report;
dated February 26, 1985. /
