RESOLUTION NO. 1096 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA MAKING FINDINGS OF FACT AND APPROVING A DEVELOPMENT PERMIT FOR A 23 LOT PROJECT IN THE R-M RESIDENTIAL MOUNTAINIOUS ZONE, NORTH OF FOOTHILLS JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL, EXTENSION . OF OAKHA VEN ROAD " WHEREAS. on January 23, 1979, an application was filed by Charles P. Bluth, for a Development Permit for a residential project in the R-M Residential Mountainous Zone, north of Foothills Junior High School, extension of Oakhaven Road, more particularly described in attached Exhibit "A"; WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on said matter on February 13, ]979, and continued to February 27, 1979, at which times all interest- ed persons were given full opportunity to be heard and to present evi- dence; .~ NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. That the fact'ual data submi tted by. the Planning Depart- ment in the staff report and EIR is true and correct. Section 2. This Commission finds that: 1. The granting of a Development Permit as hereinafter pro- vided will not be detrimental to the public health or welfare or in- jurious to the property or improvements in such zone or vicinity. 2. The use applied for at the location indicated is properly une for which a Development Permit is authorized. '3. The site abuts streets adequate in width and pavement " ' type to carrythekind~f traffic generated by the proposed use. 4. 'The granting of such Development Permit will not ad- versely affect the General Plan. 5. The environmental impact report identified potential in- stability of the proposed 90 to 100 foot fill slopes in the possible . I -1- 1096 . . . . . ,~ event of earthquake shaking and potential differential settlement a~ross the daylight line on Lots 12, 13, 14, 19 and possibly 20, particularly in the event of a severe earthquake as significant effects. Such significant effects mitigated by the condition of approval requiring the evaluation of the dynamic stability and of potential settlement at the daylight line completed by a soils en- gineer prior to the development of the final grading plan. 6. The environmental impact report identified potential problems associated with erosion and siltation during grading, and to a lesser extent after grading is completed, before vegetation is established on the slopes as significant effects. These effects will be mitigated by the condition of approval limiting grading operations to the dry season and in compliance with Section 8610 through 8658.l of the Arcadia Municipal Code. 7. The environmental impact report identified the removal of approximately 70% of the vegetation on site resulting in the limita- tionof habitats available to rare and native plant species, and the displacement of wildlife intolerant of human habitation and dependent on native vegetation as significant effects. These effects will be mitigated by the condition of approval requiring that the applicant submit a detailed landscaping and irrigation plan to be reviewed by a landscape architect. 8. The environmental impact report identified the additions of emissions to an airshed that currently exceed air quality standards for carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, hydrocarbons, and par- ticulates, further degrading air quality. as a significant effect. Specific economic, social, or other overriding considerations, how- ever, make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the final EIR for this effect. Said considerations are as follows: a. There exists a demand, in the City. for new single family housing. b. Economically City needs greater tax base as a result of Proposition 13. -2- 1096 . . . . c. The development of new homes will have to comply with State Energy Conservation Regulations, and requirements beyond those set forth by the State may not be economically viable. d. Because of the limited number of homes in the project the implementation of car pools and/or bussing is not feasible or economically viable. Section 3. That for the foregoing reasons, subject to the approval of the City Council, this Commission grants a Development Permit for a 23 lot project in the R-M Residential Mountainous Zone upon the following conditions: 1. The property shall be improved and maintained in accor- dance with plans on file in the subject Case No. R-M 79-1. 2.

March 13, 1979 TO: CITY OF ARCADIA PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT CASE NO.: R-M PERMIT 79-1 The Planning Commission continued this item to tonight's meeting to provide an opportunity for the developer to revise his plans and submit additional information. The attached tentative tract map has been revised to include 23 lots in lieu of 21 originally proposed. Lot 22 is separated from Lot 20 by a 50 foot future right-of-way designated as Lot 23. The developer proposes to have Lot 23 held in trust for a future road way to prevent land locking the property to north. Also the developer has indicated the street grade on Oakhaven south of his project. PLANNING DEPARTMENT JEFFREY F. WITTE ASSOCIATE PLANNER JFW/cm Attachment . . . February 27, 1979 TO: FROM: CASE NO.: PREPARED BY: PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF ARCADIA PLANNING DEPARTMENT R-M PERMIT 79-1 JEFFREY F. WITTE ASSOCIATE PLANNER GENERAL INFORMATION .l\PPLI CANT: Charles P. Bluth LOCATION: REQUEST: PURPOSE: AREA: GENERAL PLAN: ZONING: LAND USE: SURROUNDING ZONING AND LAND USE: HISTORY Northerly terminus of Oakhaven North of Foothill Junior High School R-M Permit to develop 21 residential lots Construction of 20 single family homes Approximately 30 acres o - 4 du/ac single family residential R-M Vacant undeveloped land North: East: South: West: R-M, R-M, R-l, R-l, Vacant Vacant/residential Foothill Junior High School Residential/Flood Control property The property immediately to the west of the proposed tract, now developed with Oakglen Avenue, was approved as Tract No. 27803 by the City Council in December of 1964. A second tract (27195) on the southwest portion of the property now under consideration was approved for 19 lots by the City Council in 1965. . . . R-M 79-1 2 The original applicants for Tract 27195 received several time extensions but were unable to construct the approved project, and the tract eventually expired. The existing cut in the mountain, drainage work and sprinkler system were constructed as a part of the development of Tract 27803. In 1976 a tentativ8 tract map for a 101-10t subdivision was filed by Meeker Development for a 60+ acre site. This proposal included Tentative Tract 27195 and substantial additional portions of the property to the west and north. After a series of public hearings, this tract was denied by a vote of 6 to 1 by the Planning Commission, and later appealed to the City Council where it was also denied. The Commission and Council considered the proposal too intense a development for the area and instructed staff to explore alternative development guidelines. The Planning Commission appointed a special study committee which recommended adoption of a new zone catagory for Arcadia. This new zone classification (R-M) zone requires an applicant to obtain a special permit from the City prior to development. PROPOSAL The applicant is proposing a 21-1ot hillside development north of Foothill Junior Hiqh School. Twenty of the 21 lots are proposed for development and the applicant plans to retain Lot 20 without developing it at this time. This project is consistent with the established General Plan density of 0-4 dwelling units per acre. PROJECT ELEMENTS Area: 30 acres Number of units: 20 single-family homes Population: The project is expected to house approximately 54 residents based on a population generation rate of 2.7 persons per single family unit. This approximation is an area-wide average and could increase by one person per unit to 64 persons due to the larger than average dwelling unit size. Fifty-four to 64 persons in this area would generate population factors equal or less in density to other similar foothill developments. TRAFFIC CIRCULATION The Environmental Impact Report prepared on this proposed development estimated 196 daily vehicle trips from the proposed developemnt. All traffic must exit the development on Oakhaven Road on which FOothill Junior High School fronts. The plan proposed by the applicant would seal off Oakglen Avenue and leave a cul-de-sac street that exceeds 500 feet. Also, the proposed street pattern would greatly handicap any further efforts to develop the eastern side of the Flood Control property by sealing off a potential entrance to that area with Lot 6 in the proposed tract. . R-M 79-1 3 SERVICES The Environmental Impact Report prepared for this project concluded that the impact on the Arcadia School District, Fire Department, Police Department, general services, and the County Sanitation District would be minimal. City water service for this property would come from an extension of a 12" line (at the developer's expense) north from Sycamore Avenue. Lots 20 and 21 would have less normal water pressure, 33 p.s.i. static pressure in lieu of 40 p.s.i. normally supplied by the City. The Water Division is recommending the installation of a booster pump system to provide normal water pressure for Lots 20 and 21. VEGETATION . The Environmental Impact Report prepared by Envicom concluded that no rare and/or endangered plants were present on the site. The grading proposed by the applicant could have the effect of removing up to 70% of the natural vegetation on the site which would include several oak trees located at the southerly portion of the property adjacent to the junior high school property. The biologist employed by Envicom stated on Page 17 in the E.I.R. for this project that the oak woodlands in the southwest portion of the site are badly disturbed, with several oaks either dead or dying. The existing area is largely covered with weeds and grasses that have little environmental significance, but do contribute to frequent fires in the area. As a portion of the implementation process for an approved R-M permit, the applicant would be required to relandscape the project with plant materIals that would not only be aesthetically pleasing but would have good erosion control qualities. A condition has been included in the conditions of approval that would require a landscape plan prepared by a licensed landscape architect and reviewed by a consulting landscape architect retained by the City at the applicant's expense. R-M CRITERIA vs. APPLICANT'S PROPOSAL . The proposal submitted by the applicant is consistent with the design of lots specified in the R-M requirements. Each lot in the proposed tract meets or exceeds the minimum 15,000 square foot lot area. Streets proposed for the new development consist of a short extension of Oakhaven Road and a new street ("A" Street) that would run east from Oakhaven Road climbing the face of the mountain and terminating in a cul-de-sac. The proposed streets appear to be consistent with right-of-way and curb-to-curb standards found in the R-M section of the code. However, "A" street and a portion of Oakhaven Road are inconsistent with the maximum grade standards that permit residential streets to have a maximum grade of 6% and transition roads between residential areas to have a maximum grade of 10%. Both proposed streets have 10% residential areas and portions of the transition section of "A" street have a 15% grade. . . . R-M 79-1 4 Due to the low number of lots impacted by the proposed grades, the City Council may wish to consider a modification of code requirements. If a modification is not granted for street grades, the project should be continued for redesign as the 10% and 15% sections are needed for the plan. Both Oakhaven Drive and "A" street exceed the maximum length for a cul-de-sac street of 301.8 feet and would also require a modification by City Council. The attached Public Works report points out that Oakhaven Drive exceeds the allowed length by approximately 700 feet and "A" street would exceed the allowed length by approximately 2,300 feet. The grading proposed for the site would not, according to the applicant's engineer, require relocating material off-site other than slope easements on adjacent properties. As a part of the Environmental Impact Report, a geological section was included due to the extensive amount of grading on-site and the proximity of the project to the Raymond Hill Fault Zone. The E.I.R. indicated that the southeast portion of the proposed development is impacted by the fault zone but the actual fault is located south of the project. The applicant's engineer estimates that approximately 290,000 cubic yards of material would have to be moved to accomplish grading required for the proposed plan. The natural slopes in this area range from 1.5:1 to 2:1 with man-made slopes in the area of 1:1. In the opinion of the Envicom's geologist (E.LR. Page 11), the existing slopes performed well even though portions of the drainage system required maintenance. IMPACT OF THE PROJECT ON ADJACENT AREAS The development of the subject site could result in the likelihood of development of the adjacent property to the north. Lot 20 is proposed to be graded in a manner that could facilitate expansion of this project. However, any expansion of the basic proposal at a later date would require new environmental documents, a new R-M permit application and tract or parcel map, all of which would require public input. The property north of this project is landlocked and is not easily developable from either Arcadia or Monrovia. The 4.9 acres adjacent to the subject site on the east is reasonably developable and could be incorporated in a development plan entering from Monrovia. Thus, it would appear that the proposed plan would neither seriously enhance nor detract from the possi- bilities of developing other hillside property. Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, the Pla~ning Department has prepared an initial study for the proposed proJect. Said initial study disclosed several substantial or potentially substantial adverse impacts associated with this project and an Environmental Impact Report has been prepared for this project. Said Environmental Impact Report was processed pursuant to provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act and certified by the City Council after public hearing was conducted on December 5, 1978. . R-M 79-1 5 RECOMMENDATION The Planning Department recommends approval of R-M Permit 79-1 subject to the following conditions: 1. That the conditions as set forth in the attached memo from the Department of Public works shall be complied with to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works. 2. That conditions as set forth in the attached memo from the Water Division shall be complied with to the satisfaction of the Water Manager. 3. That the conditions as set forth in the attached memo from the Fire Department shall be complied with to the satisfaction of the Fire Department. 4. That the applicant submit a detailed landscaping and irrigation plan to be reviewed by a landscape architect selected by the City. The cost of said review shall be paid by the applicant. . 5. That all structures have noncombustible roof materials. 6. That the City Council grant a modification to permit cul-de-sac streets in excess of 301.8 feet as recommended by the Planning Commission. 7. That the City Council grant a modification to permit a maximum grade of 15% for certain transitional sections of Oakhaven Road and "A" Street and permit a 10% grade for residential portions of said streets as recommended by the Planning Commission. 8.
