Yeah. Hi. Good evening. Planning Commission and fellow residents. Thank you for the 27 00:02:55,050 --> 00:03:04,690 opportunity. Today, this is regarding the June 18th Planning Commission meeting that happened 28 00:03:04,690 --> 00:03:17,190 for a 0.82 acre of PQP to HDR conversion. At that time the city representative said it was 29 00:03:17,190 --> 00:03:26,670 the school district that is giving the land to the private developer that city is just executing 30 00:03:26,670 --> 00:03:34,550 the agreement between this school district and the planning commission. So I raised a 31 00:03:34,690 --> 00:03:44,550 The public request in the city of Mantika website, but it was requesting that agreement 32 00:03:44,830 --> 00:03:48,750 on what basis the zoning conversion is being happening. 33 00:03:49,650 --> 00:03:57,470 But the request was closed with updating only the agenda item documents, not any agreement 34 00:03:57,470 --> 00:04:03,390 between the school district and the private apartment developers. 35 00:04:03,390 --> 00:04:08,910 and I called the city and reopened it, but it was closed again the same time. 36 00:04:09,510 --> 00:04:19,930 Why is the transparency and accountability missing when in these transactions that is 37 00:04:19,930 --> 00:04:32,350 a public site and also I request to have a new zoning code for MUSD versus the PQP city. 38 00:04:33,070 --> 00:04:39,770 So that people will transparently know what land is actually getting reduced. 39 00:04:40,430 --> 00:04:49,030 It was said that PQP is increasing. If PQP is increasing, it should increase by 2 a care, not by 1 a care. 40 00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:59,670 because fire station is two acre land that means it should be 15.87 plus two 17.87 but what is happening 41 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:29,980 The PQP of MUSD is getting reduced from 15.87 to 14.87, and then the two acres getting added for the fire station. Since the city always claims that MUSD is a different entity, let's have a different zoning code for PQP MUSD and PQP. 42 00:05:29,980 --> 00:05:38,940 city so that people have a transparent and information that is available. Thank you for your time. 43 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:41,220 Thank you. 44 00:05:43,660 --> 00:05:45,560 I don't quite do we have any other hands raised on Zoom. 45 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:52,220 And no Chair, we do not.

And therefore it's in substantial conformance. Further description and analysis of this whole process and the review is available in the agenda report for this item. The requested entitlement, again, 110 00:10:29,940 --> 00:10:34,840 is a one-year extension of an approved site plan and design review, specifically site 111 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:40,160 plan review 2304 and conditionally used permit UPJ 23-05. 112 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,260 This is a glimpse of the site plan, 113 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:52,560 it's a personal storage facility with 10 standard parking stalls and 72 RV stalls 311 storage units, 114 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,780 perimeter and frontage landscaping and a motorized front gate for security. 115 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:11,080 So the recommendation from staff is that the planning commission conduct a public hearing and adopt a resolution approving a one-year extension to the site plan and design review and can initially use permit for cottage court storage project. 116 00:11:11,660 --> 00:11:18,660 That does conclude my presentation. The applicant team are available by Zoom this evening. 117 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:24,660 They were not able to make it to the chambers but they are attending virtually and staff is here to answer any questions you may have. 118 00:11:24,660 --> 00:11:31,760 Thank you.

Once the appraisals 156 00:16:50,780 --> 00:16:55,900 received we and all of our paperwork has been turned in for personal 157 00:16:55,900 --> 00:17:01,140 information.

Seeing no hands, thank you very much. Since there's no hands and no public comment, 175 00:18:52,270 --> 00:18:56,370 we'll go ahead and there's no need for applicant rebuttal so we'll go ahead and close the public hearing 176 00:18:56,370 --> 00:19:03,550 on this item at 6.19 p.m. We'll bring it back to the commission for any other questions for staff 177 00:19:03,550 --> 00:19:08,770 at this time. Any other questions, staff from Ms. Neymar? 178 00:19:10,270 --> 00:19:17,050 Just to confirm, Mr. Bronham for the record, have the conditions of approval changed since the original approval in this project? 179 00:19:18,290 --> 00:19:27,410 There are some amended conditions, primarily formatting and timing language in the planning side. 180 00:19:27,590 --> 00:19:30,990 There are some additional, I believe some additional language from the engineering as well. 181 00:19:30,990 --> 00:19:35,970 All those have all been reviewed by the applicants and agreed upon by the applicants. 182 00:19:37,530 --> 00:19:41,270 So most of the revisions were primarily formatting and timing related. 183 00:19:41,790 --> 00:19:41,870 Okay. 184 00:19:42,570 --> 00:19:43,610 Very good. 185 00:19:43,730 --> 00:19:44,150 Thank you, sir. 186 00:19:44,770 --> 00:19:45,370 Mr. Fiori. 187 00:19:48,380 --> 00:19:55,040 If the scenario comes up again with the app, and there needs to be another extension, what 188 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:59,960 would be is there of the possibility of another extension, in other words, in how long- 189 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:29,720 How long would that be? Yeah, thank you, Mr. Fiori. There is, you can only get one, one year extension on your approved entitlement. That's per code. However, it toward the end of that time, if the applicant or developer wanted to modify their site plan to some extent, they could apply for a revised, do a revised site plan, or a modification of the site plan, which would then potentially give them an additional two years. 190 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:35,460 but that again would have to come for the commission for approval so it's not an administrative 191 00:20:35,460 --> 00:20:41,240 type of a change. So that's the only option beyond the one year for an extension. 192 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,800 Thank you. Thank you. Any other questions for staff? 193 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:53,480 So, John, the conditions are approval to take access in red. Is that considered a change? 194 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:58,580 Those are the, that's the revised language, yes, Mr. Baslak. So anything in red would be revised 195 00:20:58,580 --> 00:20:59,260 from the original. 196 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:06,900 Very good thank you.

That concludes my presentation. 249 00:26:55,580 --> 00:26:59,440 Staff is here for any questions you might have and the developer team is in the 250 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,640 chambers with us this evening as well. Thank you, Commissioner. 251 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:09,720 Thank you, sir. All right, at this time before we hear from the applicant do any 252 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,200 commissioners have any clarifying questions for staff. 253 00:27:20,020 --> 00:27:21,000 I think I'm going to ask a couple 254 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,040 now and then I have more later. 255 00:27:25,100 --> 00:27:27,200 Mr. Barnum, on the conditions of approval, 256 00:27:29,860 --> 00:27:30,600 page one, 257 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:36,520 it lists the project expiration date of September 14th, 2026. It's in 11 days from now. 258 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:44,380 And you confirm is that a typographical error? Should it be September 14th, 2028? 259 00:27:48,510 --> 00:27:57,050 the expiration? No, that is that's correct. December, please what it says. Chair, if I may 260 00:27:57,050 --> 00:28:04,350 help Mr. Barnum, that was a typographical error. The intent was that the correct expiration date 261 00:28:04,350 --> 00:28:10,150 would be the 2028 date. Okay, because it did reference that date on page two, I just wanted to confirm 262 00:28:10,150 --> 00:28:15,950 for the record that we have an accurate conditions of approval document. The approval date obviously is 263 00:28:15,950 --> 00:28:23,410 today pending approval of this modification today, but the expiration date will be 914-28. 264 00:28:24,730 --> 00:28:31,310 So if we seek passage of this motion, we will need to pass it with amended conditions of approval with a corrective date. 265 00:28:31,870 --> 00:28:33,130 That is correct, Chair. 266 00:28:33,410 --> 00:28:33,990 Thank you. 267 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:43,640 You said it in your presentation, but just to confirm, the request here seems to be very narrow in scope. 268 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:56,940 It keeps the previously approved 15 building apartment projects and tax changes simply the clubhouse and fitness center exterior treatment and relocating the maintenance building on the dog watching a state station. 269 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:04,260 That's in summary. That's the just that's the essence of this modification. That is correct or cool and there's no there are no other modifications proposed. 270 00:29:04,260 --> 00:29:06,040 Oh, it's okay, very good. 271 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:08,820 All right, I think those are the ones I want to ask 272 00:29:08,820 --> 00:29:10,320 before we hear from the applicant. 273 00:29:11,060 --> 00:29:12,940 The applicant, if you're available, 274 00:29:13,060 --> 00:29:14,220 we'd love to hear from you at this time. 275 00:29:24,730 --> 00:29:25,090 Thank you, sir. 276 00:29:25,150 --> 00:29:27,030 If you could state your name and title for the record, too. 277 00:29:27,530 --> 00:29:27,970 Appreciate it. 278 00:29:28,210 --> 00:29:32,010 Chris Kelly, architect with LPS Architects, 279 00:29:32,870 --> 00:29:34,030 representing Legacy Homes. 280 00:29:37,210 --> 00:29:40,770 Overall, it's really the same project as in the fact 281 00:29:40,770 --> 00:29:53,320 that it's 300 units yeah very tall overall it's it's similar in the fact that 282 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:59,760 it's 300 units it's comprised of 15 buildings each with 20 units all with 283 00:29:59,760 --> 00:29:59,900 So 284 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:27,000 Under garages, organized in much of the same way. We did revamped the entire, I guess, front entry elements, which is the clubhouse fitness building based on current desires from legacy homes as far as how they want to serve their residents. As Tobin stated, we moved the maintenance building to the back of house, and then also co-mingled the pet wash with the dog park. 285 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:34,460 I think it's been a little while since I worked on it, but we increased the size of the 286 00:30:34,460 --> 00:30:40,300 amenities, we increased the size of the open space, but overall it has the same character. 287 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:46,940 The architecture is a little different in appearance, there's more color added to it, but it's 288 00:30:46,940 --> 00:30:52,700 still a mix of plaster, exterior plaster, and then horizontal siding. 289 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:58,420 As Tobin mentioned, the clubhouse building and fitness buildings are radically different. 290 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:03,120 I didn't necessarily put together before and after, but in some of the documents you 291 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:06,580 kind of see what was entitled and what was currently stated today. 292 00:31:07,740 --> 00:31:10,260 But we're available to answer any questions you may have. 293 00:31:11,020 --> 00:31:11,260 Thank you. 294 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:11,880 Okay. 295 00:31:13,380 --> 00:31:18,380 Quickly off, right away, I just want to confirm your agreement with the conditions of approval 296 00:31:18,380 --> 00:31:19,120 for this project. 297 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,240 Have you read them and you're confirmed to be in agreement with us? 298 00:31:24,780 --> 00:31:30,680 Yes, assuming obviously with a modified corrected expiration date of 2028, September. 299 00:31:33,060 --> 00:31:39,700 Can you just elaborate briefly on the reason for the change of the maintenance building and 300 00:31:39,700 --> 00:31:40,940 the dog station? 301 00:31:41,060 --> 00:31:42,220 What was the reason for the modification? 302 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:43,040 Sure. 303 00:31:43,340 --> 00:31:46,760 I'd say it was originally designed by a different architect. 304 00:31:46,760 --> 00:32:11,500 So, just in conversations with ownership as far as property management, it was best to have the maintenance building kind of back of house away from the front entry away from leasing property management fitness clubhouse kind of your social amenities and to have it as more like a detached garage it's about a 400 square foot building. 305 00:32:11,500 --> 00:32:15,400 So think of it as a two-car garage as far as it made it's built in. 306 00:32:17,420 --> 00:32:20,100 And the original approval was four years ago. 307 00:32:20,300 --> 00:32:24,160 We had an extension and now a modification that will extend the time further. 308 00:32:24,780 --> 00:32:29,360 Is there a timeline for development that you're working with at this point? 309 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:29,880 It 310 00:32:35,990 --> 00:32:37,510 takes you two of us to answer all the questions. 311 00:32:37,650 --> 00:32:37,770 Sure. 312 00:32:38,450 --> 00:32:39,530 Garrett with GHBR. 313 00:32:40,430 --> 00:32:46,650 For the timeline, I mean, obviously we still have a lot of code updates to do on our construction 314 00:32:46,650 --> 00:32:52,930 and drawings. The plans we currently have, we had full construction drawing sets under 315 00:32:52,930 --> 00:33:00,130 the 2022 code, never submitted them to the city because we obviously ran into some hiccups 316 00:33:00,130 --> 00:33:08,170 with some SSGID relocations. That's taken two seasons now and it took about 18 months to 317 00:33:08,170 --> 00:33:13,110 get a plan approval for that, which was required to be completed before we pulled from it. 318 00:33:13,110 --> 00:33:20,250 So with this modification it would allow us to complete the irrigation work this 319 00:33:20,250 --> 00:33:27,190 winter we would submit for building plans, construction drawings, start site 320 00:33:27,190 --> 00:33:32,390 development hopefully late next year and be able to pull a building permit either 321 00:33:32,390 --> 00:33:34,430 late 27 or early 28. 322 00:33:35,610 --> 00:33:37,130 Okay, thank you, sir. 323 00:33:38,110 --> 00:33:40,950 Any other commissioners have questions for the applicant tonight? 324 00:33:40,950 --> 00:33:41,610 All 325 00:33:45,870 --> 00:33:59,490 right.

Please come on up. 407 00:40:09,890 --> 00:40:36,170 Good evening, sir. This is Mahesh. I live into the same community. We purchased this house about, you know, three years back, looking at, you know, where it has school is nearby. And also, you know, we travel to work and along with this project, right, what we are seeing it around 300 houses, right, or the 300 apartments, considering one kid per apartment, where it has, or maybe you 408 00:40:36,170 --> 00:40:44,170 know at least 0.75. It will bring you to the total of about 200 kids getting added into 409 00:40:44,170 --> 00:40:49,930 where it is which is really difficult right now as well where it is to extend with the 410 00:40:49,930 --> 00:40:54,910 current population and the development what we have seen into the full day, West Arthur 411 00:40:54,910 --> 00:41:01,410 and as well on to the side of the West Woodward. It is already bringing us into the complications 412 00:41:01,410 --> 00:41:07,150 where we are not able to accommodate or the quality of the kids education is hampered right now. 413 00:41:09,070 --> 00:41:13,910 And with this, I recommend kind of, you know, this things need to be kind of postponed 414 00:41:13,910 --> 00:41:19,650 and being set back to the proper MUSD, considering these governing bodies are different, 415 00:41:19,790 --> 00:41:24,850 different holding patterns, they have different approval rating, they have different ways to study this. 416 00:41:25,270 --> 00:41:30,710 We need to send this message to them as well and wait for their due diligence to be done. 417 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:33,980 Thank you, sir. Thank you. 418 00:41:37,550 --> 00:41:40,730 All right. Anybody else in the audience wish to address? Please come on up. 419 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:54,520 Good evening, Chair Koleman. Thanks for giving this opportunity. I sent a written email with 31 points 420 00:41:54,520 --> 00:42:03,920 objections and here is a confirmation from Deputy Director, Justice Orakos. I hope somebody from 421 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:09,320 the commission is going through all those 31 points. My name is Ravi Kiran Karanchukur. I'm the 422 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:15,480 resident of 1662 Centrelinger venue, which is the boundary with the applicant's property, 423 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:16,460 which is coming in. 424 00:42:18,260 --> 00:42:23,320 I have a couple of questions based on the attachment we have for today's changes. 425 00:42:26,420 --> 00:42:35,980 The first one is if I look at the landscape plan, sheet L.1A, it labeled as CMU wall along 426 00:42:35,980 --> 00:42:36,780 the property line. 427 00:42:37,900 --> 00:42:42,160 If you look at that property line, there are 10 houses, first two houses has the 428 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:52,180 legendary wall, rest of the houses has fins, but in the .1AL, it has CMA wall along the 429 00:42:52,180 --> 00:42:52,760 property line. 430 00:42:53,240 --> 00:42:58,700 But condition of approved number 34, it requires only 24-inch box trees. 431 00:42:59,860 --> 00:43:03,600 I have read every condition and I cannot find a wall anywhere in the term. 432 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:12,760 So, my question is, is a masonry wall required along the property line? Yes or no? If yes, which 433 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:20,720 condition number requires it and at what height? Usually the masonry line or the walls are supposed 434 00:43:20,720 --> 00:43:26,900 to be 8 feet tall from the tallest point of the base, I do not see that anywhere in the plan. 435 00:43:28,570 --> 00:43:35,050 And if it is required to be built, I would expect that to be done first before any activity 436 00:43:35,050 --> 00:43:40,670 start including grading, because all the dust particles, noise and everything we want 437 00:43:40,670 --> 00:43:44,130 that to be stopped first, even before any work starts. 438 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:48,140 I still have one minute. 439 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:53,140 I had a point about the dates which you already asked to correct, so thanks for that. 440 00:43:54,700 --> 00:44:00,760 As some follow-up items on the illumination point of view, I don't see any study in 441 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:05,500 all the attachments about the lighting. And I think what the question that little boy raised, 442 00:44:05,900 --> 00:44:10,700 I really worry how many small kids would be impacted because of that because the height of the 443 00:44:10,700 --> 00:44:18,940 buildings is 40 feet and there is a pathway in between which has the parking lots. And I don't know, 444 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:23,400 we cannot control at what time people come to their homes and go, we definitely don't want 445 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:26,500 younger kids to awaken the middle of the night. 446 00:44:29,460 --> 00:44:30,480 I still have it in seconds. 447 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:37,080 When last question is about the five phases, the project was originally approved in 2019, 448 00:44:38,300 --> 00:44:43,500 then some entitleness were brought in 2021, 2022, and now we are extending to 2028. 449 00:44:44,100 --> 00:44:48,840 So I don't encourage this, and then we won't be able to continue this forever. 450 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:50,280 We need to have some deadline. 451 00:44:51,340 --> 00:44:53,380 And there are more questions in my email. 452 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,140 I will take questions on email reply. 453 00:44:56,380 --> 00:44:56,460 Thank you. 454 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:56,780 Thank you. 455 00:44:56,780 --> 00:44:57,400 Thank you. 456 00:45:00,270 --> 00:45:10,510 A question for staff. The public commenter does note that there's no CMU wall requirement in 457 00:45:10,510 --> 00:45:15,350 the conditions of approval. However, on the project plan set on attachment five, it does 458 00:45:15,350 --> 00:45:22,070 specifically state CMU wall in part of the design. So can you clarify, is a CMU wall part 459 00:45:22,070 --> 00:45:27,610 of this project? CMU wall, thank you Chair Coleman. CMU wall, my code is not a requirement 460 00:45:27,610 --> 00:45:31,090 between housing, between multi-family and single-family. 461 00:45:31,230 --> 00:45:32,030 It's not a requirement. 462 00:45:32,950 --> 00:45:36,230 It is a nice amenity where the folks who live in those single-family homes, 463 00:45:36,230 --> 00:45:40,010 especially if they were there first, but it is not a requirement. 464 00:45:40,310 --> 00:45:44,590 If the developer has provided a CMU wall on the plans and the plans are approved, 465 00:45:44,590 --> 00:45:48,630 then that is what the developer will be held to construct a CMU wall. 466 00:45:48,810 --> 00:45:53,270 Per code, the maximum height for CMU wall in the city of Antigas 7 feet, 467 00:45:53,270 --> 00:45:59,170 unless it is a sound attenuation wall next to a severe noise 468 00:45:59,170 --> 00:46:01,610 a generator like a highway, for example. 469 00:46:02,250 --> 00:46:05,270 But in this case, a 7-foot wall would be the maximum height allowed. 470 00:46:07,580 --> 00:46:10,300 Thank you, sir. And then there was a comment made about 471 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:16,280 what ostensibly amounts, I believe, light pollution adjacent to the property. 472 00:46:17,180 --> 00:46:22,200 You had referenced lighting earlier in the clarification comment 473 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:28,220 And it was addressed, I believe, in the original SQL evaluation with the original project approval. 474 00:46:28,500 --> 00:46:28,780 That's correct. 475 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:30,000 That is correct, Chair Coleman. 476 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:34,680 And there is a photometric plans, a mandatory part of every site plan review application. 477 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:42,020 So it would be in the original plan set that is assessed as a standard part of every site plan review. 478 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:48,280 The requirements per code or that, but foot candles as measured from the property line should be essentially zero. 479 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:55,540 or the equivalent to the brightness of a full moon on a cloud this night, not 480 00:46:55,540 --> 00:47:01,720 poetic, but that's the measure at the property line and again the standard 481 00:47:01,720 --> 00:47:07,300 for lighting fixtures is shielded downward cast with a cone no greater than 60 482 00:47:07,300 --> 00:47:15,160 degrees in spread. So I can tell you staff is on top of these things recently we 483 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:19,560 We had a project that was a self-sourced facility that was adjacent to homes that installed 484 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:25,680 fixtures that was blasting the homes behind it with light and we went out to the site 485 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:31,660 and we required them to replace every single light on the facility and that was a lot 486 00:47:31,660 --> 00:47:32,360 of light fixtures. 487 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,280 So we are on top of those things. 488 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:42,900 And as part of that approval, should the development be in violation of the approval, the conditions 489 00:47:42,900 --> 00:47:47,200 of approval with respect to the lighting, this is an example of what the city can do to enforce that 490 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:53,260 state. That's correct. Absolutely, Chair Coleman. We go out on site typically if a planner who 491 00:47:53,260 --> 00:47:58,820 gets a, takes a project to hearing is still on staff at the time that the construction is completed 492 00:47:58,820 --> 00:48:04,200 and inspection occurs, that planner then goes back out. That was the case for me with that, 493 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:09,980 because that self-sort facility I took it to planning commission. I then was the planner to go out 494 00:48:09,980 --> 00:48:14,100 do the inspections on site and found those light fixtures was able to work with the neighbors 495 00:48:14,100 --> 00:48:16,380 and get those light fixtures changed. 496 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:20,920 So it is very much planning is very much involved in the process before, during and after 497 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:21,600 construction. 498 00:48:21,980 --> 00:48:22,100 Okay. 499 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:23,680 Thank you, sir. 500 00:48:24,740 --> 00:48:25,320 All right. 501 00:48:25,660 --> 00:48:26,020 A question. 502 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:26,260 Go ahead. 503 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:26,480 Sorry. 504 00:48:27,780 --> 00:48:30,780 A little bit clarification for the wall. 505 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,160 It's in the plans, the plans are approved. 506 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,280 Should that be then in the conditions of approval? 507 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:56,360 It can be but again, it's not a requirement per code, so the time when planning would condition it if we felt there was a substantial reason to require it say, for example, if there were a hazard on the other side of the property line, a reason to create such a substantial barrier. 508 00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:04,820 It is a big cost increase for the developer to require a wall in addition to the construction cost. 509 00:49:04,820 --> 00:49:14,280 There's the engineering involved so to oblige them to something that is not required by code is not a practice we like to we like to get into 510 00:49:15,500 --> 00:49:21,980 But if the applicant the developer wants to provide a wall that is definitely something that we appreciate 511 00:49:22,540 --> 00:49:25,440 Development is better for it the neighborhood is better for it 512 00:49:26,060 --> 00:49:34,240 But it is not conditioned because it is not a requirement and there is no inherent danger or reason to create a more substantial barrier between the site and the adjacent 513 00:49:37,550 --> 00:49:38,430 Thank you. 514 00:49:38,910 --> 00:49:43,410 Any other members of the audience that haven't spoken yet wish to address us on this item may do so. 515 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:47,920 Okay. 516 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:49,540 All right. 517 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:50,820 Seeing no more hands. 518 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:55,580 We'll go ahead and have our applicant rebuttal period begin at this time. 519 00:49:55,580 --> 00:49:59,440 You're welcome to come back up if you'd like to address any of the concerns that were brought up. 520 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:01,600 From any of the comments, tonight. 521 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:33,600 I think the biggest thing was the wall. There is a wall shown on the approved landscape plans part of the application submittal. And that's what our construction drawings actually show. Can I tell you exactly how high, but it is a senior wall. Okay. Very good. Thank you, sir. Mr. Fury, if you may, a point of clarification. In addition to that fence, what is a requirement by code between multi-family and single-family? 522 00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,440 is a 10-foot wide landscaping buffer with vertical trees. 523 00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:42,960 So that is there in, against between the parking area that the young man spoke of and the 524 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:43,780 property line. 525 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:48,840 There's a 10-foot wide minimum landscape barrier with vertical trees that over time will 526 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:49,340 get taller. 527 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:54,880 So could that combine with the light shielding, the downward casting, and so on will provide 528 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,600 them with no light trespass onto their properties? 529 00:50:58,420 --> 00:50:59,160 Thank you. 530 00:50:59,960 --> 00:51:05,580 Well, the public here is still open. Do we have any other questions for the applicant before we close it? 531 00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:17,640 Okay. All right. At this time, we'll go ahead and close the public hearing on item D2 at 651 p.m. 532 00:51:19,260 --> 00:51:24,080 We're bringing back to the commission for any follow-up questions for staff or discussion amongst us. 533 00:51:26,180 --> 00:51:27,360 The other follow-up questions for staff. 534 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:28,300 All 535 00:51:36,620 --> 00:51:39,500 right, no one else does anything. 536 00:51:39,620 --> 00:51:43,120 I'll go ahead and start a few things that I just want to clarify for the record. 537 00:51:47,550 --> 00:51:53,250 Just to confirm, there was some talk about items related to the original sequel approval, especially lighting. 538 00:51:53,970 --> 00:51:59,630 And there was a mention in the public comment, a supplemental we received as to the EIR being stale. 539 00:52:01,110 --> 00:52:08,690 Is it correct that the age of the EAR does not necessarily buy any relevance here at this point? 540 00:52:09,170 --> 00:52:12,090 All the protections from the original EAR are still in effect. 541 00:52:13,090 --> 00:52:15,530 Yes, sir. 542 00:52:15,790 --> 00:52:17,470 Sure. If I may answer that question. 543 00:52:18,390 --> 00:52:27,250 Yes. The SQL remains valid up until the project is deemed expired since the commission is considering action on this project. 544 00:52:28,170 --> 00:52:34,350 As long as any of the original provisions remain in place, the secret in this is an effect. 545 00:52:36,580 --> 00:52:38,260 Chair Kohl, if I could add to that too. 546 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:45,120 That should be noted, the secret document is not pertinent specifically to just this site. 547 00:52:46,060 --> 00:52:50,160 This part, this property is part of a plan development, which is a much larger area. 548 00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:53,860 It includes the land to the north and some land to the east as well. 549 00:52:53,860 --> 00:53:14,660 So the EIR document is a large document covering a large area of land and this is just one piece of that so all those other developments that are happening that are a part of that are also covered in that EIR document the addendum that's right that's identified as specific to this project due to an increase in the number of 550 00:53:14,660 --> 00:53:20,020 of apartment units with this application versus what was originally approved. 551 00:53:20,380 --> 00:53:23,460 So there was an increase from 281 to 300 units. 552 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:27,740 The addendum came to account for those additional apartment units. 553 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:28,260 Okay. 554 00:53:28,860 --> 00:53:29,380 Thank you, sir. 555 00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:32,780 There was a part of the supplemental. 556 00:53:32,780 --> 00:53:38,320 There was some confusion about exactly what kind of plan set was being proposed or approved. 557 00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:50,080 I think if I'm, if I'm understanding correctly, attachment five in the publicly disclosed item for D2 tonight has the proposed modifications plan says that correct. 558 00:53:50,540 --> 00:54:05,900 Yes, Chair Coleman, that's correct. There is a site plan showing the relocation of the two accessory structures and then there are architectural color rendering showing the color changes and the architectural changes to the pool house and the community building. 559 00:54:05,900 --> 00:54:11,380 Okay. And that's the document I was referencing earlier that list to CMU wall that the applicant 560 00:54:11,380 --> 00:54:17,100 spoke about that is listed in those proposed modification documents. It does list the title 561 00:54:17,100 --> 00:54:23,640 of Trillium Apartments on that plan set. Is that a previous name for this project or that name 562 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:29,900 is actually just a new brand that it was originally approved as union crossing. Therefore we brought 563 00:54:29,900 --> 00:54:34,260 the extension forward as union crossing because that is the name that was on the approval, the initial 564 00:54:34,260 --> 00:54:42,320 approval, trillium is just kind of a brand. And so that I'm assuming is connected to the 565 00:54:43,180 --> 00:54:47,540 freshening up of the two accessory structures and the color changes. Okay. 566 00:54:48,720 --> 00:54:53,500 There was concern about the project boundary. Did the project boundary change from the original 567 00:54:53,500 --> 00:54:59,120 approval on this? Or is it the same exact boundary? No, Chair Cole, there's no Coleman, there's no change to any 568 00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:29,620 The boundaries, any of the points of ingress, egress, number of units, height of building, placement of the buildings, internal circulation, landscaping, other than more landscaping where the accessory structures will be moved from. Okay, thank you very much. So yeah, thank you. The original project was when this was originally approved, was this lot zoned as general commercial and did it change to HDR after approval? 569 00:55:29,620 --> 00:55:36,560 your knowledge. That is correct. It did change to HDR at some point down the road. 570 00:55:36,740 --> 00:55:37,080 Actually, 571 00:55:40,260 --> 00:55:49,300 it was actually zoned PD before, which is kind of a not ideal way to handle PD zoning, 572 00:55:49,460 --> 00:55:57,180 but that's the way it was handled before. We had it was actually zoned PD, and then it was changed when we did a zoning cleanup later on to HDR, 573 00:55:57,180 --> 00:56:01,280 which is what's consistent with the general plan and the approved uses. 574 00:56:02,100 --> 00:56:06,500 So our approval tonight on modification would be consistent with the general plan today, 575 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:11,060 which is the NHDR, bad scratch or cold and good. Very good. 576 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:14,800 Let me see if I have anything else. 577 00:56:24,180 --> 00:56:31,100 In the response by the planning department to the supplemental item number four, 578 00:56:31,240 --> 00:56:35,660 there was discussion about phasing or this being a phase development up to five phases. 579 00:56:35,660 --> 00:56:44,080 Is there any expectation on a timeline for those phases at this time, or is it too preliminary 580 00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,120 to understand the timing for phasing? 581 00:56:48,240 --> 00:56:51,180 Chair Coleman, I would defer to the developers for that question. 582 00:56:51,180 --> 00:56:54,260 I have not been informed of any timing, but I would let them answer that question. 583 00:56:54,380 --> 00:56:54,720 We can't. 584 00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:55,520 Public hearings close. 585 00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:56,200 That's right. 586 00:56:56,340 --> 00:56:56,760 I apologize. 587 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:57,460 I apologize. 588 00:56:57,820 --> 00:56:58,120 Thank you. 589 00:56:58,340 --> 00:57:00,100 I should have asked it with the public hearings open. 590 00:57:00,180 --> 00:57:00,580 That's okay. 591 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:02,240 My apologies. 592 00:57:03,820 --> 00:57:13,260 no problem. This was curious. The revised resolution was received by the Planning Commission. 593 00:57:13,720 --> 00:57:21,600 The revised resolution from my interpretation substantially clarifies this project, 594 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:27,700 this specific approval in a meaningful way. And it does specifically list the proposed modifications 595 00:57:27,700 --> 00:57:35,600 included as attachment five of the agenda report to confirm the updated modified site plan and design. 596 00:57:36,580 --> 00:57:44,580 So I, at least with that, it kind of removes that discrepancy that was existing, I think, with the original resolution that was published. 597 00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:48,140 Or that was a comment, not a question. 598 00:57:52,220 --> 00:57:54,400 There's one more I have. Let me find it. 599 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:56,240 There was 600 00:58:07,060 --> 00:58:11,640 a discrepancy on, but I just wanted to clarify for the record to make sure I'm 601 00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:18,160 understanding correctly as it relates to, I can find it in my large sheet of notes here. 602 00:58:23,050 --> 00:58:29,590 The revised conditions refer to a January 24th, 2021 plan set, and then it was dated December 603 00:58:29,590 --> 00:58:31,170 22nd, 2022. 604 00:58:33,730 --> 00:58:42,890 And now we have modified proposed conditions with or excuse me, proposed modifications with today's date. 605 00:58:44,070 --> 00:58:52,700 Is there a discrepancy between the 2021 and 2022 modifications or conditions? 606 00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:54,080 Thank you, Chair. 607 00:58:54,080 --> 00:59:00,520 The difference is the original plan set has the 21 date on it. 608 00:59:00,780 --> 00:59:06,680 Okay, the approved the modified site plan has the 22 date on it. 609 00:59:06,940 --> 00:59:13,780 Okay, so although they were not originally submitted together with the original approval and title and approval, 610 00:59:14,060 --> 00:59:21,000 they are now combined, provided the commission should approve, they would be combined. 611 00:59:21,060 --> 00:59:23,260 And so the dates wouldn't quite match. 612 00:59:23,260 --> 00:59:25,020 That's actually not a very uncommon thing 613 00:59:25,020 --> 00:59:27,000 when you have plan sets submitted. 614 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:28,400 You'll have the landscape plan, 615 00:59:28,620 --> 00:59:30,660 design the landscape architect with one date on it, 616 00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:32,420 and you'll have the photometric plan, 617 00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:37,200 you'll have the, all the different pages, 618 00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:40,220 many different pages will have different people 619 00:59:40,220 --> 00:59:42,140 who draw them so the dates might be different, 620 00:59:42,300 --> 00:59:43,660 but that's the discrepancy. 621 00:59:44,700 --> 00:59:45,000 Very good. 622 00:59:47,260 --> 00:59:50,560 Are there any other questions by any commissioners or staff? 623 00:59:51,620 --> 00:59:59,820 No. Good? Okay. I empathize with the impact. 624 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:29,220 That's the fact of, you know, the quantity of children that will be part of this development. You know, I think Manticca Unified has 25,000 plus students right now. That's essentially a quarter of the population of the city goes to one of our schools. It continues to be a challenge. It is absolutely not within the purview of the planning commission to consider any of that.
