SUMMARY: The Planning Commission recommended to the City Council
approval of the project with recommended changes to Condition No.
48a and 48b relating to sound wall height and providing a "no
loading area" by the northerly metal roll -up door.
Industrial Planned Development Permit No. 97 -3 is for
construction of a 42,146 square foot industrial building.
Pursuant to the traffic study prepared by Thomas S. Montgomery,
P.E. dated April 28, 1997, the ultimate use will contain 10,000
square feet of general office with the remainder (32,146 square
feet) devoted to warehousing and manufacturing. The proposed use
of the building at this time as shown on the submitted plot plan
is for entirely warehouse purposes. The scope of the proposed
building excluding the hillside, will occupy approximately
106,259 square feet (2.44 acres).
This matter was heard by the Planning
hearing on November 10, 1997. Issues

the area of the loading door and apron located on the north
elevation of the building would create an internal traffic flow
problem in the proposed parking area. Staff had recommended that
the loading door on the north elevation be deleted since a
standard size loading space had not been provided and there were
concerns about blocking the driveway with any loading and
unloading activities. The Planning Commission recommended that
Condition No. 48b be modified to reduce the height of the sound
wall from 8 feet to 6 feet as there was not a specific noise
study recommending an eight foot wall. The Planning Commission
recommended that Condition No. 48a be modified to have the
applicant post the loading door and apron area on the north side
of the building as a "no loading area" so as to prevent internal
circulation problems in the parking area. All of the Planning
Commission recommended changes have been incorporated in the City
Council Resolution (Attachment No. 2)
On November 10, 1997, the Planning Commission closed the public
hearing and recommended to the City Council conditional approval
of the subject project with the revisions to the recommended
Conditions of Approval as shown in the attached Resolution.

E. PROJECT SITE HISTORY:
On November 4, 1985, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 85 -249
for approval of Development Plan No. DP 318 to construct a 130,288
square foot industrial building and Land Division No. LDM -5 to
divide an existing 55.9 acre parcel into lots of 26.06 and 29.93
acres. The City Council approved Major Modification No. 1 to DP
318 for a 60,529 square feet building footprint adjacent to the
existing Kavlico building was approved by the City Council on
February 3, 1994.
F. EXISTING SETTING:
The proposed site is presently bisected by the Happy Camp Canyon
Drain which has been channelized to the north and south of the site
and placed underground in a reinforced concrete box conduit (RC
Box) on the site. This channel is located at the base of a steep
(approximately 30 %) east facing slope and oak woodland. The
proposed building will not encroach into the hillside or oak
woodland. The building will be erected on a previously graded pad;
however, minor grading will be necessary to accommodate the
building footprint.
SECTION III - PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS:
The following are the site specifications for this project:
New Development Landscaping Area (Inc. Hillside)95,399 SF (50 %)
Landscaping in Parking Area 14,526 SF (22.7 %)
Based on the above calculations, the proposed industrial project
exceeds the City's Ordinance requirement of providing a minimum of
10% landscaping within the parking area and on the site.

The Zoning Ordinance states that parking lots containing more than
twenty (20) spaces should provide at least one designated area for
the parking of two (2) wheeled motorized vehicles. These spaces
may substitute for one (1) vehicle parking space for every two (2)
motorcycle spaces provided not to exceed five percent. The project
will be providing parking for eight (8) motorcycles and eight (8)
bicycles. Based on the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, the
proposed project will have sufficient parking for the proposed
building to be used for the proposed warehouse and future
conversion of a portion of the building for office /manufacturing
uses.
The height of the proposed building is 32 feet, including the
height of the parapet. The City's Zoning Ordinance allows a
maximum height of a main building in the M -1 zone of 30 feet, but
may be increased to 60 feet with approval of the approval of the
approving authority of the Industrial Planned Development Permit.
The height of the proposed building is the same height as the
building to the north and is also in keeping with the scale of the
height of the other industrial buildings in the vicinity.
Therefore, the height of the proposed building is in keeping with
the intent of the Zoning Ordinance.

The City's Zoning Ordinance requires a setback from edge of right -
of -way for all existing and planned four lane connectors as
follows: thirty feet of building setback for all front yard and ten
feet for all side yards with a minimum of ten feet of landscaping
behind the front and side yard property lines. Said setbacks shall
be landscaped, except for walkways and front -to -back driveways. It
further states that said setbacks shall be landscaped, except for
front -to -back driveways and walkways, and shall not be used for
drive aisles or parking. The minimum front yard setback for the
proposed building is greater than 100 feet from Los Angeles Avenue
which exceeds the minimum setback requirements of Section
17.24.020B of the City's Zoning Ordinance. In addition, the
proposed building as situated will be over 100 feet from the rear
property line.
The applicant has been conditioned to do the following public
improvements:
* The developer is being required to provide for all
necessary on -site and off -site storm drain facilities
required by the City to accommodate upstream and on -site
flows.
* The applicant will provide street /right of way
improvements to include sidewalk, parkway improvements,
street lights, driveway modifications and signing. The
developer is also required to dedicate any additional
right -of -way necessary to make all of the required
improvements.
A retaining wall of approximately 13 feet in height as part of the
Los Angeles Avenue Improvement Plan Project is proposed to be
constructed north of the right of way on the subject property in
order to accommodate construction of the approved street section
DP318 #1.SR 6
Planning Commission Staff Report
IPD 97 -3
Sunbelt Properties (Kavli)
Page No. 7
along Los Angeles Avenue. The applicant will not be responsible
for constructing the wall, but has been conditioned to provide
sufficient right -of -way for construction of the wall and any other
future street improvements to Los Angeles Avenue.
Adequate access will be provided to the proposed industrial
building via a front to back access taken from Los Angeles Avenue
and two other access points, one of which is a signalized
intersection which provides fully protected ingress /egress.
According to Section 17.32.090 of the City's Zoning Ordinance, one
unloading and loading space shall be provided if the gross floor
area of the building exceeds 3,000 square feet. The required size
of each loading space must be at least 12 feet wide by 40 feet long
and have a 14 foot vertical clearance and be located near the
service entrance of the building. In this case, the proposed
building has four (4) loading bays which meets the length, width
and height requirements as specified in the Zoning Ordinance. The
proposed loading docks will be located to the rear of the proposed
building. Due to potential noise from loading and unloading
operations, staff has conditioned the project to provide a eight
(8 ) foot high sound wall along the top of the slope adjacent to
Los Angeles Avenue and western portion of the project site adjacent
to the loading dock area.
The proposed project has a loading door and apron located on the
north elevation of the building. Loading and unloading in this
area will create an internal traffic flow problem in the proposed
parking area as demonstrated with the existing loading and
unloading operation that takes place behind the existing building
located to the north. The current operation is not visually
screened from the Freeway, is unattractive and effectively
eliminates several parking spaces, including handicapped spaces to
the building. Any loading or unloading along the northern side of
DP318 #1.SR 7
III 0I
Planning Commission Staff Report
IPD 97 -3
Sunbelt Properties (Kavli)
Page No. 8
the proposed building will be visible as it would not be screened
and will create a safety hazard as it will interfere with the
circulation in the parking lot area. Therefore, staff has
conditioned the project to eliminate this door. All loading should
take place in the loading area located along the south elevation.
According to the Traffic Study dated April 28, 1997 prepared by
Thomas S. Montgomery (Transportation and Traffic Engineering
Consultant), the additional traffic that would be generated by the
office /warehouse building was estimated based on traffic generation
factors obtained from the Institute of Transportation Engineers
(ITE) Trip Generation Manual, Fifth Edition. The combination of
uses would have total daily traffic demands less than 390 vehicles
per day with maximum directional peak hour total demands of
slightly less than 50 vehicle trips per hour inbound during a
typical weekday morning commuter peak travel period.
The potential impacts of the additional traffic that would be
generated by the mixed use development was estimated based on
weekday morning and afternoon peak period traffic volume /capacity
relationships calculated at all four study intersections using the
"Intersection Capacity Utilization" (ICU) methodology. At the
present time, all four intersections are operating at acceptable
levels of service (LOS A or B) and would continue to do so for the
hypothetical "existing plus site traffic" scenario. At total
cumulative buildout levels in the year 2010, all four study
intersections would be operating at LOS A during both commuter peak
periods with or without site - generated traffic demands.
In conclusion, the street system in the vicinity of the study site
is now operating at acceptable levels of service and would continue
to do so for the "existing plus site" and "total future cumulative
with or without site" traffic condition scenarios. Therefore, the
traffic analysis concluded that the additional traffic generated
from the proposed development would not adversely effect traffic
operations on the street system serving the study site now or in
the future.

The proposed building will have painted tilt -up wall panels with
recessed accent reveals, painted white to match building No. 1, and
have reflective blue glazing in a black anodized storefront system
to match the neighboring two buildings. Therefore, the proposed
industrial building as proposed will be compatible with the
existing industrial buildings both of which are adjacent to the
project, and other industrial buildings currently in the vicinity
of the project site.
In addition to the CEQA definitions of significance, the Ventura
County Air Pollution Control Board has adopted a policy which
states that future general development projects located in Ventura
County nonattainment areas of the County which emit 25 pounds or
more per day of either ROC or NOX will individually and
cumulatively have a significant adverse impact on air quality.
Based upon calculations prepared in accordance with the County of
Ventura Air Quality Management Plan, this project will produce
approximately 2.61 pounds of ROC and 3.83 pounds of NOx per day.
Thus the development projects are not expected to result in
substantial deterioration of the ambient air quality, but does
contribute to the overall increase of ROC and NOX on a cumulative
basis. Therefore, staff has imposed a condition of approval
requiring that the applicant contribute to the Moorpark Traffic
Systems Management Fund of $.15 per square foot of floor area to
fund Traffic System Management programs prior to the issuance of a
Zoning Clearance.
The proposed industrial project is not expected to substantially
increase the ambient noise level in the area. This project is an
infill project and the surrounding noise levels will be compatible
with those of the industrial buildings located to the north of the
project site. The City's Noise Element identifies that up to 75
decibels of exterior noise is considered acceptable for industrial
uses. Sensitive uses such as residential dwellings, although
DP318 #1.SR 9
(1111 Q56
Planning Commission Staff Report
IPD 97 -3
Sunbelt Properties (Kavli)
Page No. 10
located within close proximity of the proposed building, should be
buffered from loading and unloading operations by the construction
of the 8 foot high sound wall in the area of the loading /unloading
area. Therefore, noise generation from the project should not have
a substantial adverse impact on the surrounding properties.
The requested Industrial Planned Development Permit is considered
consistent with the Land Use Element of the General Plan. In
particular, the following policies are considered applicable to the
proposed industrial projects:
Policy 2, To encourage industrial development to adopt a
harmonious architectural style with appropriate landscaping and
buffer areas.
Discussion The proposed industrial building is of an architectural
style consistent with other industrial buildings contained within
the general area of the proposed building. The proposed
landscaping exceeds the required City landscape standards and
landscaped setbacks will be provided in accordance with City
policy.
Policy 5: In order to discourage strip industrial development,
future industrial facilities should be in the form of industrial
parks.
As previously identified these proposed projects will infill vacant
land within an existing industrial area. Therefore, this project
is consistent with providing industrial development within areas
planned for industrial park areas within the City.
Policy 6: To establish sites for appropriate industrial uses in
locations which are harmonious with adjoining land uses, and which
do not degrade the general physical environment of Moorpark.

3. Does the project have impacts which are individually
limited, but cumulatively considerable? (A project may
impact on two or more separate resources where the impact
on each resource is relatively small, but where the
effect of the total of those impacts on the environment
is significant. The term "cumulatively considerable"
means that the incremental effects of an individual
project are considerable when viewed in connection with
the effects of past projects, the effects of other
current projects, and the effects of probable future
projects.)
