November 22, 1977 TO: FROM: CASE NO.: PREPARED BY: CITY OF ARCADIA PLANNING COMMISSION PLANNING DEPARTMENT CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 77-29 JEFFREY F. WITTE ASSOCIATE PLANNER GENERAL INFORMATION APPLICANT: LOCATION: REQUEST: EXISTING LAND USE AND ZONING: ADJACENT LAND USE AND ZONING: LOT AREA: FRONTAGE: GENERAL PLAN: We lls Fargo Bank 1107-1111 South Baldwin Avenue Conditional use permit for a bank with a drive-up window Vacant commercial building (to be removed); C-2 & Hand PR-3 The adjacent property to the north, east and south has C-2 H zoning and is developed with commercial uses. The property to the west is zoned R-3 and is developed with a multi-family use. 31,000 square feet 167.92 feet on Arcadia Avenue 202.45 feet on Baldwin Avenue Commercial SPECIAL INFORMATION BUILDING SIZE: 3,456 square feet BUILDING HEIGHT: Single story -- 14'6" C.U.P. 77-29 2 . EXTERIOR ELEVATIONS: Glass and fiber-cement panels with a metal roof. Portions of the building are pre-assembled units constructed on a slab foundation. The applicant's architect has informed staff the proposed building is permanent and does not consist of a group of trailer units linked together. PARKING AND DRIVE-UP WINDOW AREA: . The proposed building requires 21 parking spaces; 27 are pro- posed. The parking lot plans submitted by the applicant could be improved by either providing for more landscaping (see alternative "A") or redesigning the proposed parking lot to provide for a better traffic flow into and out of the parking lot in addition to an improved approach to the drive-up window area (see alternative "B"). The applicant's original parking lot plan does not comply with Code in several areas. However, the applicant's plans could be revised to comply with Code and then be resubmitted for Planning Department approval. The proposed drive-up facility has three lanes and can handle a maximum of 100 vehicles per hour under ideal conditions, according to the information furnished by the applicant's traffic engineer, Robert Crommelin and Associates. Crommellin and Associates concluded the proposed Wells Fargo Bank at the corner of Baldwin Avenue and Arcadia Avenue would have a negligible impact upon adjacent street traffic. In the opinion of the traffic consultant, the drive-up banking facility is adequately designed .to handle significantly higher volumes of traffic than those projected by the applicant. The existing block wall along the westerly property line is adequate to meet the requirements in the Arcadia Municipal Code for drive-in businesses. To grant a conditional use permit for a drive-in business, the Planning Commission must make the following findings: 1. The proposed use complies with all requirements set forth for the issuance of a conditional use permit. 2. The proposed use will not substantially increase vehicular traffic on any street in a residentially zoned district. 3. The proposed use will not lessen the suitability of any nearby commercially zoned property for commercial use by interfering with pedestrian traffic. . 4. The proposed use will not create increased traffic hazards to pedestrians when located near a school, church, auditorium, theater or other place of assembly. . , , C.U.P. 77-29 3 A covenant approved by the City Attorney should be recorded in the County Recorder's office guaranteeing that the parking located on the northern lot at 1107 Baldwin Avenue be maintained for the use of the bank. A lot consolidation would be superior to a covenant. However, the time required for processing a lot consolidation (parcel map) could delay the proposed construction several months. The applicant has not proposed any special signs or lighting for the subject site and all signing and lighting of the parking lot areas are subject to the standard requirements found in the Arcadia Municipal Code. Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning Department has prepared an initial study for the proposed project. Said initial study did not dis- close any substantial or potentially substantial adverse change in any of the physical conditions within the area affected by the project including land, air, water, minerals, flora, fauna, ambient noise, and objects of historical or aesthetic signifi- cance. Therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for this project. Before the Planning Commission takes action on this project, the Commission should "move to approve and file the Negative Declaration and find that the project will not have a signifi- cant effect on the environment." RECOMMENDATION The Planning Department recommends approval of C.U.P. 77-29 subject to the following conditions: 1. Conditions outlined in the attached report from the Depart- ment of Public Works shall be complied with to the satis- faction of the Director of Public Works. 2. A covenant approved by the City Attorney as to form and content shall be recorded in the office of the County Recorder guaranteeing that the parking located at 1107 S. Baldwin Avenue shall be maintained as long as said build- ing or land use is maintained at 1111 South Baldwin Avenue. 3. That a lot consolidation be filed for the subject site. 4. That final building plans shall substantially comply with the building plans on file in this conditional use permit. Colors, materials and elevations are subject to the review and approval of the Planning Director. 5. That landscaping and irrigation plans be submitted to the Planning Department for its review and approval. C.U.P. 77-29 4 . 6. That a revised parking lot plan with not less than 21 parking spaces be submitted to the Planning Department for review and approval. If any modifications of the Arcadia Municipal Code are required, the proposed parking lot plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission. 7. The Planning Commission makes the following findings: a. The proposed use complies with all requirements set forth for the issuance of a conditional use permit. b. The proposed use will not substantially increase vehicular traffic on any street in a residentially zoned district. c. The proposed use will not lessen the suitability of any nearby commercially zoned property for commercial use by interfering with pedestrian traffic. d. The proposed use will not create increased traffic hazards to pedestrians when located near a school, church, auditorium, theater or other place of assembly. . 8. That all traffic exiting onto Baldwin Avenue from the subject site be restricted to "right-hand turn only." JFW/at Attachments . . . .
