AGENDA REPORT
City of Moorpark
To: The Honorable City Council
From: Paul Porter, Senior PlannPrepared by Craig Malin,j
Assistant Planner
Date: March 4, 1996 (CC meeting March 20, 1996)
Subject: Consider Minor Modification No. 3 to Planned Development
Permit 769 (Simi Valley Bank), request for driveway for
teller window at 256 W. Los Angeles Avenue.
PD 769 was approved by the County of Ventura Planning Director on
March 29, 1974 for construction of a 2,625 square foot convenience
market. Condition No. 1 of the approving resolution limited use of
the site to a convenience market only. On December 30, 1981, the
County of Ventura denied Minor Modification No. 1 for the sale of
gasoline.
Minor Modification No. 2 was approved by the Community Development
Director on December 20, 1995 to modify condition No. 1 of PD 769
to allow occupancy of the building by Simi Valley Bank, and for the
construction of the necessary improvements required for occupancy.
Condition No. 17 of Minor Modification 2 allowed "Upon submittal of
a properly filed Permit Adjustment, a drive -up teller window on the
west side of the existing building shall be allowed." The Permit
Adjustment application was filed on January 26, 1996. A decision
on this Permit Adjustment is being deferred to coincide with action
on Minor Modification No. 3. Current conditions of approval allow
only one driveway on Park Lane.
Minor Modification No. 3 was filed on February 28, 1996 for the
construction of a one way driveway to serve a teller window (being
processed concurrently as Permit Adjustment 95 -2) on the west side
of the building with curb cuts for two driveways on Park Lane. One
proposed curb cut, closest to Los Angeles Avenue, is 30' in width
and is designed for two way traffic. The 20' curb cut which will be
located adjacent to the southern property line is for vehicles
exiting the teller window only.
eliminated when reciprocal access to the adjacent property is
obtained.
This Minor Modification request meets all applicable Zoning Code
requirements. The following conditions are proposed for this Minor
Modification request:
1) An Encroachment Permit is required before any curb cuts can
be added.
2) Landscaping shall not block vehicles in the driveway or
their line of sight.
3) The driveway for the teller window shall be striped to
indicate one way trafip, OL�
4) The southern�ur c on ar Lane shall be marked with a
do not enter sign facing Park Lane. `2<z�-
5) All conditions of approval shall be met within 30 days of
approval.
6) All conditions of approval of Minor Modification No. 2
apply.
7) The curb cut on Los Angeles Avenue shall have a sign posted
which prohibits left turns exiting the ban% westbound onto Los
Angeles Avenue. (6 c-t4l4 A'.z4& L--a � ���ZY-
�
C }�-1ke 15' northern driveway on Park Lane shall be allowed for
a period of 3 years (the first three year period expiring g, rte,)
April 30, 1999), to be automatically extended unless revoked
by an action of the City Council or until access to the east
or south is provided on a reciprocal basis with the adjoining
property. A two to four (2 -4) foot median shall be constructed
per the traffic plan on Park Lane as approved by the City
Engineer to block immediate left turns into the northern most
Park Lane driveway. Simi Valley Bank agrees to remove the
northern Park Lane driveway and median at such time as
directed by the City. This obligation to remove the northern
driveway and median and replace them with appropriate paving,
curb, gutter and landscaping shall be secured in the same
manner as provided for in condition No. 18 of Minor
Modification No. 2 to PD 769.
This proposal has been reviewed by the acting Director of Community
Development, who is deferring action on this application to the
City Council.

I visited the Sint Valley Bank Site on February 8, 1996, and reviewed the site
plans you sketched on the striping plans for Park Lane.
I recommend that the bank not be allowed an access to Park Lane in front of
their building. Such as access would primarily service people who desire to travel
westbound on Los Angeles Avenue. For either alternate layout on Paris Avenue, a
vehicle exiting the bank access, and turning left on Los Angeles Avenue, would block
both a north bound through lame and a right turn lane (or a combined throughlright turn
lane) when there was one or more vehicles waiting to make a left turn from Park Lane.
Because of the positioning of the drive through window, standard -size
automobiles can not turn onto Park Lane without encroaching onto a second lane.
Light trucks present an even greater problem because of their wider turning radius.
This is not a desirable situation.
