TO: Honorable Chairman and Planning Commission
FROM: Lisa L. Flores, Planning & Community Development Administrator
By: Christine Song, Associate Planner
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 2045 – APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
NO. CUP 19-13 WITH A CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION UNDER THE
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) TO ALLOW
OUTDOOR STORAGE AND FLEET VEHICLES FOR FRONTIER
COMMUNICATIONS AT 11633 CLARK STREET
Recommendation: Adopt Resolution No. 2045
SUMMARY
The applicant, Martin Gilmore from Frontier Communications, on behalf of the property
owner, Clark Street Industrial Investors, LLC, is requesting approval of Conditional Use
Permit Application No. CUP 19-13 to utilize a portion of the parking lot area for outdoor
storage of equipment, shipping containers, and fleet vehicles for Frontier
Communications at the property located at 11633 Clark Street. It is recommended that
the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2045 (refer to Attachment No. 1) and find
that the project is Categorically Exempt under CEQA and approve Conditional Use Permit
No. CUP 19-13, subject to the conditions listed in this staff report.
BACKGROUND
The project site is an interior lot located on the north side of Clark Street, between Peck
Road and Kardashian Avenue. The subject property is comprised of five parcels that is
approximately 217,831 square feet in area and zoned M-1, Industrial with a General Plan
Land Use Designation of Industrial. All five parcels are owned by the same property
owner, Clark Street Industrial Investors, LLC. The property is currently improved with five
(5) buildings, totaling 34,765 square feet of floor area and is surrounded by other M-1
zoned properties in all directions – refer to Attachment No. 2 for an Aerial Photo with
Zoning Information and Photos of the subject property and surrounding properties. There
are currently nine (9) other businesses located at this property. The applicant, Frontier

Communications, will occupy two of spaces within one of the existing industrial buildings
at 11633 Clark Street that will be located near their outdoor storage area.
The owner had previously leased 35 parking spaces to the existing adult business,
Knockouts Gentlemen Club that is located at 1580 Clark Street. However, Knockouts
recently acquired another site to provide their required parking, and the covenant has
since been revoked.
PROPOSAL
Frontier Communications is a national telecommunications company that provides
telephone, internet/broadband and video services to more than one hundred thousand
residents, businesses, public agencies, and 911 emergency services. In 2016, Frontier
Communications acquired Verizon’s landline facilities and has been active in expanding
their operation and network. Frontier currently has other locations with outdoor storage
throughout Southern California including in the City of Van Nuys, Whittier, Baldwin Park,
Camarillo, and Pomona.
Frontier Communications is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit to allow
outdoor storage of equipment, shipping containers, and fleet vehicles that are all related
to the telecommunications business. Frontier will occupy Units 105 and 106, totaling
approximately 4,224 square feet for their administrative and general office use – see
Attachment No. 3 for the Site Plan and Outdoor Floor Plan. The business hours of
operation will be from 7:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Frontier will utilize
an existing unused parking lot area for the proposed outdoor storage of equipment,
shipping containers, and fleet vehicles. This area was previously used for storage of semi-
trucks and behind-the-wheel training for Dootson’s driving school, which closed in August
2017.
The service equipment will be stored within the seven (7) shipping containers, measuring
20’L x 8’W x 8’H, that will be located toward the rear of the parking lot (see Figure 1).
Additionally, the site will have two (2) recycling containers and three (3) waste containers
for dismantled telephone poles. The recyclables and waste materials will be picked up by
a third party trash provider. The recycling and waste containers will be covered by a solid
roof supported with a height of 9 feet 6 inches, to provide protection from the elements
and prevent any potential stormwater runoff, as required by the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) (See Figure 2).

The outdoor storage area will be approximately 200 feet away from the front property line
and it will not impact any required parking for the other businesses on this property. A
total of 59 parking spaces are required for all the warehouse uses on the property, at a
parking ratio of 1 parking space per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. The site
currently has 85 parking spaces, therefore there is a surplus of 25 parking spaces.
However, to ensure that Frontier Communications has enough parking spaces for their

employees that park their personal vehicle and take a fleet vehicle out each day, the
Applicant has proposed a total of 142 new parking spaces (74 for fleet vehicles, 65 for
employees, and 3 for ADA) on-site. A total of 62 employees are expected to be on-site
daily and additional fleet vehicles will be provided in case some vehicles are undergoing
maintenance and not available for use. The 65 new parking spaces for employee vehicles
will be 9’-0” x 18’-0” as that is the minimum stall size for standard vehicles. However, the
74 fleet vehicles will consist of both vans and bucket trucks, which require wider and
longer stalls. The parking area will be striped to accommodate 59 van parking space,
each at the dimensions of 10’-0” x 21’-0” and 15 bucket truck parking space, each at the
dimensions of 10’-0” x 22’-0”. All the vehicles will be screened by the existing 6’-0” tall
wrought-iron fence that is located near the front property line. The outdoor storage area
that is located behind the parking area will be screened by an 8’-0” tall wrought-iron fence
with a perforated metal screen to further restrict access to the outdoor storage area.
ANALYSIS
The proposed outdoor storage for Frontier Communications would be located within an
underutilized parking lot area and would not be visible from public view. Since the storage
containers would be setback at least 200 feet from the front property line, any potential
impacts to neighboring industrial properties along Clark Street would be minimal, if any.
The front half of the property will remain as a parking lot and the addition of new parking
spaces will not remove any of the parking from the other businesses. The employee
vehicles and storage of fleet vehicles overnight will not create a potential impact to the
adjacent uses as the previous use on this site already had storage of large vehicles for a
trucking school (Dootson’s Trucking School). Furthermore, several other industrial
properties with similar outdoor storage using shipping containers were identified along
Clark Street and Peck Road within the immediate vicinity of the subject property. As a
result, it would not change the overall character of the area and the site is suitable in size
and location to accommodate this use.
A condition of approval has also been included to require a recorded covenant to allow
for the outdoor storage to span across multiple parcels. This will memorialize the use and
allow it to be carried on in the event of a potential change in property ownership in the
future. Lastly, the proposed plans have been reviewed by various City Departments, and
all City requirements shall be complied with to the satisfaction of the Building Official, City
Engineer, Planning & Community Development Administrator, Fire Marshal, and Public
Works Services Director.
FINDINGS
Section 9107.09.050 of the Arcadia Municipal Code requires that for a Conditional Use
Permit to be granted, it must be found that all of the following prerequisite conditions can
be satisfied:
CUP 19-13
11633 Clark Street
December 10, 2019
Page 5 of 10
1. The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable
specific plan.
Facts to Support This Finding: The proposed outdoor storage for Frontier
Communications equipment, shipping containers, and fleet vehicles are all consistent
with the uses typically allowed in the Industrial General Plan Land Use Designation as
it is intended to permit a wide range of light industrial uses and warehousing. The
proposed project will complement other warehouse uses within this industrial center
as well as other industrial uses along Clark Street and Peck Road. The proposal will
not adversely affect the comprehensive General Plan and is consistent with the
following General Plan goals and policies:
Land Use and Community Design Element
x Policy LU-7.2: Encourage industrial uses that provide employment and revenue
benefits to the City.
2. The proposed use is allowed within the applicable zone, subject to the granting
of a Conditional Use Permit, and complies with all other applicable provisions
of the Development Code and the Municipal Code.
Facts to Support This Finding: The project site is zoned M-1, Industrial. Arcadia
Development Code Section 9102.03.020, Table 2-8, allows outdoor storage related to
a warehouse use with a Conditional Use Permit. The proposed outdoor storage for
Frontier Communications equipment and shipping containers will not create a
potential impact as they will be located toward the rear of the property and screened
by an 8’-0” tall fence and a solid wall along the perimeter of the property. As for the
employee vehicles and storage of fleet vehicles overnight, they will not create a
potential impact to the adjacent uses as the previous use on this site had storage of
vehicles for a trucking school (Dootson’s Trucking School). Therefore, the proposed
use is compatible with the surrounding uses and it will comply all other applicable
provisions of the Development Code and the Municipal Code.
3. The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed activity
will be compatible with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity.
Facts to Support This Finding: The site and location is suitable for the proposed
project as it will be utilizing a large open parking area that was previously used to store
semi-trucks and behind-the-wheel training for Dootson’s driving school. The proposed
outdoor storage for Frontier’s Communications equipment and shipping containers will
not be visible from the public view, and the new parking spaces toward the front of the
property will be large enough to accommodate the fleet vehicles and employee
parking on-site. The proposed project will not change the characteristics of the
surrounding area as the proposed use is similar to other operating characteristics
typically found on an industrial zoned property.

4. The site is physically suitable in terms of:
a. Its design, location, shape, size, and operating characteristics of the
proposed use in order to accommodate the use, and all fences,
landscaping, loading, parking, spaces, walls, yards, and other features
required to adjust the use with the land and uses in the neighborhood;
Facts to Support This Finding: The site is suitable for the proposed outdoor
storage of equipment and fleet vehicle. The placement of the new storage
containers, outdoor storage for equipment, additional parking spaces, and
fencing will not impede into any of the required driveway aisles for emergency
access.
b. Streets and highways adequate in width and pavement type to
accommodate public and emergency vehicle (e.g., fire and medical)
access.
Facts to Support This Finding: The site is located along Clark Street with
direct access from this street. This street is adequate in width and pavement
type to carry the traffic generated by the proposed use and any emergency
services that may need to access the site.
c. Public protection services (e.g., fire protection, police protection, etc.).
Facts to Support This Finding: The subject property is developed with
existing multi-tenant industrial buildings and the outdoor storage area was
reviewed by the Arcadia Police and Fire Departments, and both departments
determine there will be no impact to public safety services.
d. The provision of utilities (e.g., potable water, schools, solid waste
collection and disposal, storm drainage, wastewater collection,
treatment, and disposal, etc.).
Facts to Support This Finding: The subject property is developed with multi-
tenant industrial buildings. There are adequate utilities to service this site. The
site and buildings are in compliance with current health and safety
requirements. There will be no impact to utilities or the City’s infrastructure from
the proposed use.
5. The measure of site suitability shall be required to ensure that the type, density,
and intensity of use being proposed will not adversely affect the public
convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare, constitute a nuisance,
or be materially injurious to the improvements, persons, property, or uses in the
vicinity and zone in which the property is located.

Facts to Support This Finding: The proposed outdoor storage for Frontier’s
Communications equipment and fleet vehicles will be consistent with similar existing
light industrial uses on the property that have large semi-trucks parked on-site
throughout the day. The outdoor storage area has been placed on the property where
is screened from public view by an 8’-0” tall fence and to ensure additional security of
the site and to restrict unauthorized access to the property. Therefore, the proposed
outdoor storage will not adversely affect the public convenience, health, interest,
safety, or general welfare of adjacent uses in the vicinity and zone of the subject site.
