An aerial photo with zoning information and the proposed Tentative Tract Map are attached. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the City's General Plan, Zoning Regulations, and Subdivision Code. On December 11, 2012, the Planning Commission approved the applicant's Modification Application No. MP 12 -10 and Architectural Design Review No. MFADR 12 -10 (see attached staff report) based on the determinations that the requested five -foot encroachment into the 30 -foot Special Setback along Arcadia Avenue is appropriate, that the design complies with all other Zoning regulations, and that the architectural design is consistent with the Architectural Design Guidelines. It is recommended that the Planning Commission approve application no. TTM 72165, subject to the conditions listed in this staff report. BACKGROUND APPLICANT: Dexter Sunset Arcadia, LLC LOCATION: 1036 Sunset Boulevard REQUEST: A Tentative Tract Map (No. 72165) for an eight -unit, residential - condominium subdivision SITE AREA: 18,130 square -feet (0.29 acre) FRONTAGES: 130 feet along Arcadia Avenue 140 feet along Sunset Boulevard EXISTING LAND USE & ZONING: The site is currently developed with a four -unit, one -story, multiple - family development that was built in 1948. The site is zoned R -3, Multiple - Family Residential. The minimum density for the site is one (1) unit per 2,200 square -feet, or 8.24 units. The maximum density is one (1) unit per 1,450 square -feet, or 12.50 units. SURROUNDING LAND USES & ZONING: All of the surrounding properties are developed with multiple - family residences, and are zoned R -3. GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION: High Density Residential — This designation accommodates higher- density attached housing types for both renter and owner households within a neighborhood context. Such housing types generally are located near transit stops, along arterials and transit corridors, and within easy walking distance of shops and services. Appropriate transition to adjacent lower - density neighborhoods is required through use of yards, other open areas, and building heights. This designation accommodates 12 to 30 dwelling units per acre. DISCUSSION The applicant is requesting a Tentative Tract Map for residential condominium purposes. The site is zoned R -3, High Density Multiple - Family Residential, and has a total land area of approximately 18,130 square feet. The R -3 zone has a maximum density of one (1) unit per 1,450 square feet of lot area, and a minimum density of one (1) unit per 2,200 square feet of lot area. Based on these density factors, a maximum of twelve (12) units would be allowed on the subject site, and a minimum of eight (8) units is required. The applicant's proposal to develop eight (8) residential condominium units is consistent with the density requirements. Therefore, staff has determined that the requested subdivision is consistent with the City's General Plan, Zoning, and Subdivision Regulations. In addition, the discharge of sewage from the project into the public sewer system will not violate any requirements prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board for this region. All City requirements shall be complied with to the satisfaction of the Building Official, Community Development Administrator, Fire Marshal, and Public Works Services Director. The proposed plans have been reviewed by these departments and some special conditions are deemed necessary in addition to TTM 72165 1036 Sunset Blvd. March 26, 2013 Page 2of6 the standard conditions of approval. These are listed as conditions 1 through 7 of this staff report. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) the Development Services Department has determined that the proposed project is an infill development project, and is therefore categorically exempt from further environmental review per Section 15332 of the CEQA Guidelines. A Preliminary Exemption Assessment is attached. PUBLIC NOTICE/COMMENTS Public hearing notices for TTM 72165 were published in the local newspaper on March 14, 2013 and mailed to the property owners and tenants of those properties that are located within 300 feet of the subject property on March 15, 2013 — see the attached radius map.

All City code requirements shall be complied with to the satisfaction of the Fire Department, Public Works Services Department, and Development Services Department. 7. The applicant shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City of Arcadia and its officers, employees, and agents from and against any claim, action, or proceeding against the City of Arcadia, its officers, employees or agents to attack, set aside, void, or annul any approval or condition of approval of the City of Arcadia concerning this project and /or land use decision, including but not limited to any approval or condition of approval of the City Council, Planning Commission, or City Staff, which action is brought within the time period provided for in Government Code Section 66499.37 or other provision of law applicable to this project or decision. The City shall promptly notify the applicant of any claim, action, or proceeding concerning the project and /or land use decision and the City shall cooperate fully in the defense of the matter. The City reserves the right, at its own option, to choose its own attorney to represent the City, its officers, employees, and agents in the defense of the matter. 8.

Approve this project subject to the conditions of approval set forth in the staff report or as modified by the Planning Commission. Denial If the Planning Commission is to take action to deny this subdivision, the Commission should make specific findings based on the evidence presented and move to deny the project. The Planning Commission may wish to consider the following findings which must be expanded upon with specific reasons for denial: D.1. That the proposed map is not consistent with the applicable general and specific plans as specified in Section 66451 of the Subdivision Map Act. D.2. That the design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is not consistent with applicable general and specific plans. D.3. That the site is not physically suitable for the type of development. D.4. That the site is not physically suitable for the density of development. D.5. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements is likely to cause substantial environmental damage. D.6. That the design of the subdivision or the types of improvements is likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. D.7. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements is likely to cause serious public health problems. D.8. That the requested subdivision injuriously affects the neighborhood wherein said lot is located. D.9. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. In this connection, the legislative body may approve a map if it finds that alternate easements for access or for use, will be provided and that these will be substantially equivalent to ones previously acquired by the public. This finding shall apply only to easements of record or to easements established by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and no authority is hereby granted to a legislative body to determine that the public at large has TTM 72165 1036 Sunset Blvd. March 26, 2013 Page 5 of 6 acquired easements for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision.

MP 12 -09 AND MULTIPLE- FAMILY ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN REVIEW NO. MFADR 12 -1Q FOR AN EIGHT -UNIT, TWO- STORY, RESIDENTIAL TOWNHOUSE DEVELOPMENT AT 1036 SUNSET BOULEVARD Recommendation: Conditional Approval SUMMARY The applicant is requesting a Modification of the special front yard setback requirement on Arcadia Avenue for an eight -unit, two -story, multiple- family development, and Architectural Design Review approval of the proposed "Santa Barbara" style townhouse residences for 1036 Sunset Boulevard (see attached aerial photograph). The Development Services Department is recommending approval, subject to the conditions listed in this staff report. BACKGROUND APPLICANT: Mr. Charles Huang of Dexter Sunset- Arcadia, LLC LOCATION: 1036 Sunset Boulevard REQUEST: Approval of a Modification for a 25 -foot front yard setback for Arcadia Avenue in lieu of the special 30 -foot setback requirement; and Architectural Design Review approval for an eight -unit, two- story, residential, townhouse development. SITE AREA: 18,130 square -feet (0.29 acre) FRONTAGES: 130 feet along Arcadia Avenue and 140 feet along Sunset Boulevard EXISTING LAND USE & ZONING: The site is currently developed with a four -unit, one -story, multiple - family development that was built in 1948. The site is zoned R -3, Multiple- Family Residential, The minimum density for the site is one (1) unit per 2,200 square - feet, or 8.24 units. The maximum density is one (1) unit per 1,450 square -feet, or 12.50 units. SURROUNDING LAND USES & ZONING: All of the surrounding properties are developed with multiple - family residences, and are zoned R -3. GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION: High Density Residential — The High Density Residential designation accommodates higher - density attached housing types for both renter and owner households within a neighborhood context. Such housing types generally are located near transit stops, along arterials and transit corridors, and within easy walking distance of shops and services. Appropriate transition to adjacent lower - density neighborhoods is required through use of yards, other open areas, and building heights. This designation accommodates 12 to 30 dwelling units per acre. DISCUSSION The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing four -unit, multiple family development and build the proposed eight -unit, two -story, residential townhome development. Parking for the residents and guests will be on a semi- subterranean level (see the attached plans). The proposed new residences will have a front yard setback from Arcadia Avenue of 25 -feet. A Modification is required to encroach into the 30 -foot special setback requirement on Arcadia Avenue. Special setback modifications are usually processed administratively. This case, however, is before the Planning Commission because the proposal is for a new, multiple - family development at a prominent comer. Special setbacks were established to ensure that adequate space is reserved for future street widening. Engineering Services has confirmed that there are no plans to widen Arcadia Avenue, and determined that they have no objection to the requested five -foot encroachment into the 30 -foot special setback on Arcadia Avenue as proposed by this project. The setbacks of the other developments on the north side of this block of Arcadia Avenue are set back an average of 40 -feet from the front property line (see attached table). The additional 15 -foot setback probably had a negligible effect on the development location since most of those lots are 210 feet deep, which is considerably deeper than the 140 -foot depth of the subject lot. The only other lot that has a comparable depth to the subject lot is the lot located at the northwest corner of Arcadia Avenue and Golden West Avenue. It currently is improved with a five -unit, 4,487 square -foot, single -story development, and has a front yard setback of 39 -feet from Arcadia Avenue, but has a setback on the Golden West Avenue side of only 10 -feet. Architectural Design Review Concurrent with the Modification application, the Planning Commission may approve, conditionally approve, or deny the architectural design of the proposed project. The applicant describes the proposed design as "Santa Barbara" style with the following architectural elements: an earth -toned S -tile roof; white, sand - finished, stucco walls; window seats and balconies on the street -side elevations with black wrought -iron railing; and decorative clay chimney caps. The massing and scale of the buildings are in character with other newer multiple - family buildings in the vicinity (photos of the site and neighborhood are attached). The MP 12 -09 and MFADR 12 -10 1036 Sunset Boulevard December 11, 2012 Page 2of5 design of the proposed project is consistent with the City's Multiple- Family Residential Design Guidelines and is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS This project, as an infill development project, is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15332 of the CEQA Guidelines. The proposed eight -unit residential project is consistent with the General Plan and zoning regulations, is surrounded by urban development, and will not have any significant impacts on the environment. A Preliminary Exemption Assessment is attached to this staff report. PUBLIC NOTiCE/COMMENTS Public hearing notices for MP 12 -09 and MFADR 12 -10 were mailed on November 29, 2012 to the property owners and tenants of those properties that are located within 100 feet of the subject property — see the attached radius map. Because staff considers the proposed project as exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the public hearing notice was not published in a local newspaper. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission approve Modification MP 12 -09 and Multiple - Family Architectural Design Review No. MFADR 12 -10, subject to the following conditions: 1. All City requirements regarding building safety, fire prevention, detection, suppression, emergency access, public right -of -way improvements, parking, water supply and water facilities, sewer facilities, trash reduction and recycling requirements, and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) measures shall be complied with to the satisfaction of the Building Official, Fire Marshal, Public Works Services Director and Development Services Director. Compliance with these requirements is to be determined by having fully detailed construction plans submitted for plan check review and approval, and shall include, but shall not be limited to the following: a. The developer shall install a separate water meter for each unit. A common water meter for each unit can be used to supply both domestic water services and fire services. The developer shall separate the fire service from domestic water service with an approved back flow device. b. A Water Meter Clearance Application, filed with the Public Works Services Department, shall be required prior to permit issuance. c. New water service installation shall be done by the developer. Installation shall be done according to the specifications of the Public Works Services Department. Abandonment of existing water services, if necessary, shall be done by the developer according to Public Works Services Department specifications. d. The subject property is currently tributary to an 18" VCP sewer main on Sunset Boulevard that is owned by the Los Angeles County Sanitation District. The developer shall utilize the existing sewer lateral if possible; however, for any changes to the existing sewer lateral, the developer shall get approval to connect to the existing sewer main from The Los Angeles County Sanitation District prior to commencing work, as well MP 12 -09 and MFADR 12 -10 1036 Sunset Boulevard December 11, 2012 Page 3 of 5 as obtaining an encroachment permit from the City of Arcadia. The closest City -owned sewer main is on Arcadia Avenue, but a new and longer sewer lateral will be required. e. If any drainage fixture elevation is lower than the elevation of the next upstream manhole cover (523.933' on Sunset Boulevard, 517.982' on Arcadia Ave.), an approved type of backwater valve is required to be installed on the lateral at the right -of -way. f. The existing street trees shall be protected in place. The existing sidewalk on Sunset Boulevard shall be replaced as part of this project. On Arcadia Avenue, a new sidewalk shall be constructed along the property line, rather than at the curb as shown on plans. h. Deficient curb and gutter shall be replaced as required by the Public Works Services Inspector. i. The existing curb ramp at the intersection shall be replaced as part of this project. j. Install an automatic fire- sprinkler system per the City of Arcadia Fire Department Single & Multiple- Family Dwelling Sprinkler Standard. Each unit shall have its own water meter and fire- sprinkler riser. k. A Knox switch shall be provided for the entry gate. I. The project shall comply with the Arcadia Multi - Family Construction Standards. m. Detailed shoring plans shall be provided with the grading plans. 2. The applicant shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City of Arcadia and its officers, employees, and agents from and against any claim, action, or proceeding against the City of Arcadia, its officers, employees or agents to attack, set aside, void, or annul any approval or condition of approval of the City of Arcadia concerning this project and /or land use decision, including but not limited to any approval or condition of approval of the City Council, Planning Commission, or City Staff, which action is brought within the time period provided for in Govemment Code Section 66499.37 or other provision of law applicable to this project or decision. The City shall promptly notify the applicant of any claim, action, or proceeding concerning the project and /or land use decision and the City shall cooperate fully in the defense of the matter. The City reserves the right, at its own option, to choose its own attomey to represent the City, its officers, employees, and agents in the defense of the matter. 3. Approval of MP 12 -09 and MFADR 12 -10 shall not take effect until the applicant, designer, contractor, and property owner have executed and filed an Acceptance Form available from the Development Services Department to indicate awareness and acceptance of the conditions of approval. g. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION Approval If the Planning Commission intends to approve the project, the Commission should move to approve Modification No. MP 12 -09 and Multiple - Family Architectural Design Review No. MP 12 -09 and MFADR 12 -10 1036 Sunset Boulevard December 11, 2012 Page 4 of 5 SFADR 12 -10, subject to the conditions set forth above, or as modified by the Commission, based on at least one of the following purposes, and that the design is consistent with the City's Multiple- Family Architectural Design Guidelines: 1. That the Modification will secure an appropriate improvement of a lot; 2. That the Modification will prevent an unreasonable hardship; or 3. That the Modification will promote uniformity of development. • Denial If the Planning Commission intends to deny this project, the Commission should move to deny Modification No. MP 12 -09 and Multiple- Family Architectural Design Review No. MFADR 12 -10, based on the evidence presented and state the reasons why the project does not meet any of the above purposes, and /or that the design is not consistent with the City's Multiple - Family Architectural Design Guidelines.
