CITY OF MOORPARK,CALIFORNIA City Council Meeting of y/ d 1/40 (o ACTION:422p4n,40 oladA cwt . �IZo . pet-3 493 BY: 1/4-7harr-- MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT TO: Honorable City Council FROM: Dave A. Bobardt, Community Development Director90 Prepared by Freddy A. Carrillo, Associate Planner I DATE: April 14, 2016 (CC Meeting of 4/20/2016) SUBJECT: Consider a Resolution Approving Modification No. 6 to Development Plan (DP) Permit No. 290, to Allow the Development of New Parking Spaces and New Landscaping and Lighting at 6101 Condor Drive; Making a Determination of Exemption Under CEQA in Connection Therewith, on the Application of Dave Osborn for Calabasas BCD BACKGROUND On January 28, 2016, an application was filed by Dave Osborn (for Calabasas BCD) for Modification No. 6 to Development Plan (DP) Permit No. 290. The applicant is requesting approval for an expansion of the parking lot for a net increase of 178 parking spaces and for new landscaping and lighting at 6101 Condor Drive. The property currently has 692 parking spaces and 6 motorcycle spaces; however, 60 spaces would be removed to accommodate 238 new parking spaces. This would bring a total of 876 parking spaces to the site. Landscape improvements and new lighting poles are also proposed as part of this permit. The office building on the site is currently occupied by PennyMac Loan Services, LLC. The tenant is requesting additional parking spaces for its employees. Many employees are currently parking improperly on driveways, across the street in the former Kavlico parking lot, and on Condor Drive. 1 Honorable City Council April 20, 2016 Page 2 DISCUSSION Project Setting Existing Site Conditions: The property is approximately 16.08 acres and is located on the south east corner of Princeton Avenue and Condor Drive. The developed area sits on top of a slope that slopes down at the southern edge of the property. An approximately 140,544 square- foot two-story office building is located on east side of the site. Access to the property is located on the north side of the property and on the east side of the property. The applicant is proposing 238 new parking spaces divided in three different locations: 195 spaces will be developed on south side of the existing parking lot, 6 spaces will be located east of the shower facility, and 31 spaces will be located south of the office building. The applicant will also be removing and replacing 6 parking spaces that meet Americans Disabilities Act (ADA) accessible parking requirements. Previous Applications: On June 27, 1983, the Planning Director for Ventura County approved Development Plan No. 290, for the construction of a 134,400 square-foot industrial/office building with 708 parking spaces and an outdoor jogging track, volleyball court, and patio area. On December 11, 1985, the Community Development Director of Moorpark approved Minor Modification No. 2 to Development Permit No. 290, to allow a revision of a recreational area to include softball field, basketball court, and a 1,352 square-foot shower facility. However, only the softball field, basketball court and shower facility were built. On June 26, 1991, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 91-770, which approved Industrial Planned Development No. 90-15, for the construction and operation of a 176,000 square-foot building for administration and research and development purposes. The building was never built and the permit has now expired. On May 15, 2013, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2013-3188, which approved revised parking restrictions on Condor Drive allowing on street parking for approximately 80-90 vehicles on the westerly and southerly sides of Condor Drive as it curves around the eastern boundary of this site, during the hours of 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. to accommodate the parking needs of PennyMac. On September 4, 2013, the City Council adopted Resolution 2013-3220, which approved parking restrictions on Condor Drive be revised further to provide a "No Stopping Anytime" zone immediately west of PennyMac's easterly driveway to allow sufficient space for vehicles to enter and exit Pennymac's easterly driveway as well as the driveway immediately opposite on the north side of Condor Drive. Prior to this, parking was not permitted on Condor Drive. If this request is approved, and the parking lot is constructed, it would be appropriate to restore the "No Stopping at Any Time" 2 Honorable City Council April 20, 2016 Page 3 restriction to all of Condor Drive. Staff will place this matter on a future City Council agenda after the parking lot is constructed. GENERAL PLAN/ZONING Direction General Plan Zoning Land Use Site Light Industrial Industrial Park Office building North Light Industrial Industrial Park Retail / warehousing South Light Industrial Industrial Park Vacant lot East Light Industrial Industrial Park Light industrial building West Light Industrial Industrial Park Light industrial building General Plan and Zoning Consistency: The development of parking within the proposed area to accommodate the existing office use on the subject property is consistent with the Light Industrial General Plan land use designation of the property. The development of this parking to provide parking for the office use as conditioned is consistent with the property's Industrial Park, M-1, zoning designation. ANALYSIS Issues Staff analysis of the proposed project has identified the following areas for City Council consideration. Landscaping: All proposed parking areas are currently covered by grass. The applicant is proposing to remove 64,650 square-feet of grass from the south side of the existing parking lot and install 4 planters with attached 'finger" planters on each corner. The parking lot currently has 19 similar planters. New planters will enhance the parking lot with landscape. The applicant is also proposing to remove 9,290 square-feet of grass from the east side of the existing parking lot, which may possibly be used for electrical vehicle parking only. In addition, 1 ,125 square-feet of grass adjacent to the basketball court and shower facility will also be removed to accommodate more parking spaces. Both the basketball court and shower facility will remain as is. However, the softball field will be replaced with new parking. The recreational facility was originally approved by the County as part of the site plan but not as a condition of approval. The City has not required recreational facilities be part of new industrial developments, and has not approved new industrial developments with recreational facilities. 3 Honorable City Council April 20, 2016 Page 4 New landscaping on the outer sides of the property and within the slopes is also proposed as part of this permit. The applicant wants to remove all dead shrubs and trees and replace vegetation with drought-tolerant landscaping. The existing landscape has been poorly maintained and has declined with reduced irrigation. New landscaping will also provide adequate drainage, slope support and erosion control. To ensure landscaping is installed properly and consistent with the City's Landscape Guidelines, a special condition has been added to submit a landscape and irrigation plan to be reviewed and approved by the Parks and Recreation Director and the Community Development Director prior to issuance of a zoning clearance. National Pollution Discharge Elimination Standards Requirements (NPDES) and Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4): The City Engineer/Public Works Director 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) and the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) 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. To ensure grading is done properly, a special condition has been added to submit a grading plan, to be subject to review and approval by the City Engineer/ Public Works Director prior to issuance of building permits. Lighting: Parking lot lighting is important for both the safety and convenience of users of any parking area. Chapter 17.30 of the Moorpark Municipal Code addresses lighting systems constructed on properties within the various zones in the city. The code states that "...lighting has both a practical and aesthetic value and is an integral portion of any development..." and that "improperly installed lighting, illegal lighting, or improperly maintained lighting, creates impacts upon astronomical resources within the community and creates conflicts and nuisance impacts upon abutting properties and is wasteful of energy resources by causing energy to be expended without producing additional useful light." To ensure proper lighting is installed, a special condition has been added requiring a lighting plan subject to review by the Community Development Director and Police Chief as part of the condition compliance process. FINDINGS Modification Findings per Section 17.44.100 of the Moorpark Municipal Code: A. The site design, as modified by Modification No. 6 to DP Permit No. 290, would not be considered a substantial or fundamental change in the approved entitlement or use relative to the permit in that development of parking spaces would not change the use as authorized by the original permit. 4 Honorable City Council April 20, 2016 Page 5 B. The site design, as modified by Modification No. 6 to DP Permit No. 290, would not have a substantial adverse impact on surrounding properties in that the use does not require modification to the exterior of the approved office building, and the additional parking spaces will help to resolve current parking shortage that is impacting offsite properties. C. The site design, as modified by Modification No. 6 to DP Permit No. 290, would not change any findings contained in the environmental documentation prepared for the permit in that this parking lot expansion is within an existing developed property with appropriate access, parking and circulation for this proposal. No further environmental documentation is required. 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: February 26, 2016 Planning Commission Action Deadline: NA City Council Action Deadline: May 25, 2016* * This date reflects a 90-day extension to the deadline agreed to by the applicant. 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 cannot be readily identified, an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is prepared. 5 Honorable City Council April 20, 2016 Page 6 The Community Development Director has determined that the project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. The project qualifies under the Class 32 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) because Modification No. 6 to DP Permit No. 290 allows the development of 178 parking spaces in an existing undeveloped area and the use is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulations. In addition, there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The project is consistent with the Class 32 (In-Fill Development Projects) exemption as follows: A. The project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulations, in that the development of new parking spaces will not create negative impacts on or impair the utility of the neighboring properties, structures or uses in the surrounding area as the proposed parking lot expansion is compatible in design with surrounding buildings and land uses and; the circulation system provides for logical connections between the existing parking lot located on the same property. B. The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses, in that the development area consists of 1.72 acre project site within an already developed 16.08 acre site and will be located adjacent to an existing parking lot in a developed business park. C. The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species, in that it had been previously graded and prepared for urban development. D. Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality, in that the development of 178 parking spaces is intended to supplement the parking needs of the office building on the same property. E. The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services, in that utilities and public services exist providing service to adjacent buildings. The new parking area will be required to comply with all codes in effect at the time of construction. NOTICING Public Notice for this meeting was given consistent with Chapter 17.44.070 of the Zoning Ordinance as follows: 6 Honorable City Council April 20, 2016 Page 7 1. Publication.
