O V0 A,4116 l AI.eep Y t 5 19,00 i 44 aicy°t STAFF REPORT Development Services Department DATE: November 26, 2013 TO: Honorable Chairman and Planning Commission FROM: Jim Kasama, Community Development Administrator By: Nick Baldwin, Assistant Planner SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 1888 — TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO. TPM 13-12 (72519) WITH A CLASS 15 CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) TO SPLIT ONE LOT INTO TWO LOTS AT 1414 S. EIGHTH AVENUE Recommended Action: Find that this project qualifies as a Class 15 Categorical Exemption from CEQA; Conditionally Approve Tentative Parcel Map No. TPM 13-12; and adopt Resolution No. 1888 SUMMARY Tentative Parcel Map Application No. TPM 13-12 (72519) was submitted by the developer, Mr. Richard Tipping to split the lot at 1414 S. Eighth Avenue into two lots. An aerial photo with zoning information, the proposed Tentative Parcel Map, and photos of the subject property and neighboring properties are attached. The proposed subdivision will be consistent with the City's General Plan, and Zoning Regulations, but modifications are required of the lot configuration standards of the City's Subdivision Code. As a minor land division this project qualifies as a Class 15 Categorical Exemption from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). It is recommended that the Planning Commission find that this project is exempt from CEQA, approve Tentative Parcel Map No. TPM 13-12, subject to the conditions listed in this staff report, and adopt Resolution No. 1888. BACKGROUND APPLICANT: Mr. Richard Tipping, Developer LOCATION: 1414 S. Eighth Avenue REQUEST: Approval of a Tentative Parcel Map to split one lot into two lots SITE AREA: Approximately 29,121 square feet (0.67 acre) FRONTAGES: 65.69' along Eighth Avenue and approximately 303' along Kaitlyn Place EXISTING LAND USE & ZONING: The site is improved with one, single-family residence that was originally constructed in 1950, detached storage structures and horse-keeping enclosures. The property is zoned R-1-7,500, Second One-Family residential with a minimum lot size requirement of 7,500 square feet. SURROUNDING LAND USES & ZONING: North: Five, two-story, single-family residences, zoned R-1-7,500 South: Two, one-story, single-family residences, zoned R-1-7,500 East: A hiking and riding trail along the Santa Anita Wash Flood Control Channel, zoned S-2, Public Purpose West: One and two-story, single-family residences, zoned R-1-7,500 GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION: Low Density Residential — The low density residential designation accommodates low-density single-family residential neighborhoods. Development is typified by detached single-family residences on lots 7,200 to 10,000 square feet in size. Permitted uses are limited to single-family residences on a single lot. Other uses that may be appropriate, consistent with zoning regulations, include public and private schools, public parks, and other open space uses. This designation accommodates up to 6 dwelling units per acre. The deep lots on Eighth Avenue of approximately 440 feet in depth and most of relatively narrow widths are holdovers from when this area was used as truck-farms and horse-properties. Many of these properties have been consolidated and subdivided into cul-del-sacs, as were the three properties that were immediately north of the subject property that had the street addresses of 1402, 1406, and 1410 S. Eighth Avenue. These properties were comparable in size and configuration to the subject property, and in 2010 they were consolidated and subdivided into five lots on a one-sided cul-de-sac, Kaitlyn Place — see the attached Tentative Tract Map No. TTM 69958. As a result, the subject property became a corner lot with a street-side of approximately 303 feet. It was deemed unfair to leave the north side of the subject property exposed, as well as to impose onto the subject property the maintenance of the new 303-foot long parkway. As conditions of approval for Kaitlyn Place, the developer was required to build a block wall to secure the subject property, and an assessment district for Kaitlyn Place was established for the maintenance of the parkway. If the proposed lot split is approved, the assessment district would be dissolved, and the maintenance of the parkway would become the responsibility of the owner(s) of the two new lots. DISCUSSION The applicant is requesting approval of a Tentative Parcel Map to split the subject property into two parcels. The site is zoned R-1-7,500 and has a total area of approximately 29,121 square feet. The existing one-story residence on the proposed Parcel 1 is to remain for the time being, and there is no proposal for the development of Parcel 2 at this time. TPM 13-12 (72519) 1414 S. Eighth Avenue November 26, 2013— Page 2 of 8 The existing residence on the proposed Parcel 1 complies with the R-1 zoning regulations with a few exceptions. The front yard setback requirement for this lot is the average of the front yard setbacks for the two neighbors, which is approximately 56'-0" and the existing home is only setback 42'-0". Residences are required to have two garage parking spaces; however, this property has none. Lastly, the street side setback for this lot will be 25'-0", as a reverse corner lot, rather than 20'-0" as a regular corner lot. The existing residence is set back 12'-0" from the northerly street side property line. These three inconsistences are legal non-conforming. Tentative Parcel Map The proposed lot split is required to be subdivided through the Tentative Parcel Map process — see the attached Tentative Parcel Map. Parcel 1 will be a reverse corner lot and Parcel 2 will be considered an interior lot. Their characteristics are as follows: Subdivision Characteristics Parcel No. Width Depth Area 1 65.69 feet 220.00 feet 14,512 square feet 2 220.98 feet 65.68 feet 14,609 square feet Code Minimums 75.00 feet* 100.00 feet 7,500 square feet `85.00 for corner lots The Subdivision section of the Municipal Code states that the front of a lot is the property line that has the narrower street frontage (AMC Sec. 9112.32). The frontage of Parcel 1 will remain along Eighth Avenue. The front of Parcel 2 will be the northerly property line along Kaitlyn Place. The subject property has a lot width of 65.69 feet, which is less than the 85-foot minimum requirement for a corner lot. The proposed Parcel 1 will retain this substandard width. However, there are other lots nearby with similar substandard widths as shown in the table below: Substandard Lot Widths of Neighboring Properties Address Front Lot Width 1323 S. Eighth Avenue 69'-0" 1411 S. Eighth Avenue 69'-0" 1415 S. Eighth Avenue 69'-0" 1428 S. Eighth Avenue 69'-0" The proposed subdivision will divide a particularly deep lot into two lots that will be of comparable size with many other lots in the neighborhood — see the attached Table A— Size of Lots within the 300-foot Radius. TPM 13-12 (72519) 1414 S. Eighth Avenue November 26, 2013—Page 3 of 8 Applications for Architectural Design Review for new homes on the proposed new lots have not been submitted, and would only be accepted if the proposed subdivision is approved. If the subject property were to be redeveloped as one lot, the current zoning regulations would allow for a two-story home that could be up to 25 feet tall with approximately 28,500 square feet of living area. The two proposed lots could each be developed with two-story homes with approximately 10,500 square feet of living area. This is comparable to what could be built on the lots across the street on Eighth Avenue between Camino Grove Avenue and Pamela Circle. The area of the subject property is 29,121 square feet or 0.67 acre of land area. The density factor in the City's General Plan for this area is up to six dwelling units per acre. The proposed subdivision complies with this density limit. And, with the exception of the substandard lot dimensions, the proposed lot split meets all other subdivision regulations, and is consistent with the following General Plan land use and housing policies: LU-1.1: Promote new infill and redevelopment projects that are consistent with the City's land use and compatible with surrounding existing uses. H-2.3: Encourage compatible residential development in areas with recyclable or underutilized land. H-2.4: Maintain development standards, regulations, and design features that are flexible to provide a variety of housing types and facilitate housing that is appropriate for the neighborhoods in which they are located. H-2.6: Require that the density or intensity, as well as design of new developments, be compatible with adjacent neighborhoods. H-4.4: Support infill development at suitable locations and provide, where appropriate, incentives to facilitate development. With approval of the above lot design modifications, and acceptance of the legal- nonconforming status of the existing residence, the proposed subdivision will be in compliance with the City's Zoning Code and Subdivision Code, and the State Subdivision Map Act. The Public Works Services Department has verified that the proposed lot split will not violate any requirements of a California Regional Water Quality Control Board. The following two findings are required for approval of a Tentative Parcel Map: A.1. That the proposed subdivision is consistent with the City's General Plan. Facts to Support the Finding: The proposed lot split will create two parcels that will be consistent in character with the Low Density Single-Family Residential designation in the City's General Plan. A.2. That the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into the community sewer system will comply with existing requirements prescribed by a California Regional Water Quality Control Board. TPM 13-12 (72519) 1414 S. Eighth Avenue November 26, 2013— Page 4 of 8 Facts to Support the Finding: The Arcadia Public Works Services Department confirmed that the lot split, and the development of the new lots will be adequately served by the existing sewer infrastructure and the requirements of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board will be satisfied. The proposed subdivision should not be approved if the Planning Commission finds that any of the findings for denial listed at the end of this staff report are applicable. With approval of the lot design modifications, and acceptance of the legal- nonconforming status of the existing residence, the proposed subdivision will be consistent with the City's Zoning Code, General Plan, and Subdivision Code. In addition, 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 the various City departments and some special conditions of approval are deemed necessary. These are listed as recommended Condition of Approval No. 1 in this staff report. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS This project, as a minor land division, qualifies as a Class 15 Categorical Exemption from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15315 of the CEQA Guidelines. The proposed lot split will be consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Code, and is in an urbanized area. A Preliminary Exemption Assessment is attached to this staff report. It is recommended that the Planning Commission find that this project is exempt from CEQA. PUBLIC NOTICE/COMMENTS Public hearing notices for TPM 13-12 were published in the local newspaper and mailed to the property owners of those properties that are within 300 feet of the subject property on November 14, 2013 — see the attached radius map. As of November 22, 2013, no comments have been received regarding this project. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission approve Tentative Parcel Map No. TPM 13-12, 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 by the foregoing City officials and employees, and shall include, but shall not be limited to the following: TPM 13-12 (72519) 1414 S. Eighth Avenue November 26, 2013— Page 5 of 8 a. Pay the following fees prior to approval of the Parcel Map: A Map Fee of $100.00 and a Final Approval Fee of$25.00 for a total of$125.00. b.

A street dedication along the north side of the property, between Parcel 1 and Parcel 2. [Reference "Detail B" on Tract Map No. 69958 (Book 1366, Pages 7-10)]. iii. A 5-foot easement to the City of Arcadia along Kaitlyn Place. 2. The proposed project shall be developed and maintained in a manner that is consistent with the plans submitted and approved by TPM 13-12 (72519), subject to the approval of the Community Development Administrator, or designee. 3. The applicant shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City of Arcadia and its officials, officers, employees, and agents from and against any claim, action, or proceeding against the City of Arcadia, its officials, officers, employees or agents to attack, set aside, void, or annul any approval or conditional approval of the City of Arcadia concerning this project and/or land use decision, including but not limited to any approval or conditional 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 officials, officers, employees, and agents in the defense of the matter. TPM 13-12 (72519) 1414 S. Eighth Avenue November 26, 2013 —Page 6 of 8 4. Approval of TPM 13-12 (72519) shall not take effect until the applicant, civil engineer, and property owner(s) have executed and filed an Acceptance Form available from the Development Services Department to indicate acceptance of the conditions of approval. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION Approval If the Planning Commission intends to approve this project, the Commission should move to approve Tentative Parcel Map No. TPM 13-12 (72519) and adopt the attached Resolution No. 1888 that incorporates the conditions of approval, or as may be modified by the Commission, and which incorporates the following findings and action: A.1. That the proposed project together with the provisions for its design and improvement is consistent with the City's General Plan; A.2. That the discharge of waste from the proposed project into the community sewer system will not violate existing requirements prescribed by a California Regional Water Quality Control Board; A.3. That this project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Section 15315 of the CEQA Guidelines; and A.4. Authorize and direct the Development Services Director or designee to approve and execute, if necessary, a subdivision agreement for this project. Denial If the Planning Commission is to take action to deny this project, the Commission should make specific findings based on the evidence presented with specific reasons for denial, and move to deny Tentative Parcel Map Application No. TPM 13-12 and direct staff to prepare a resolution for adoption at the next meeting. 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 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 project 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.S. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements is likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. TPM 13-12 (72519) 1414 S. Eighth Avenue November 26, 2013—Page 7 of 8 D.6. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements is likely to cause serious public health problems. D.7. 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 acquired easements for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. D.8. That the proposed waste discharge would result in or add to violation of requirements of a California Regional Water Quality Control Board. If any Planning Commissioner, or other interested party has any questions or comments regarding this matter prior to the November 26, 2013 public hearing, please contact Assistant Planner, Nick Baldwin at (626) 574-5444, or nbaldwin @ci.arcadia.ca.us.
