Gravity drainage outlets shall be installed in a manner to prevent runoff over the sidewalks from the subject property.

C.U.P. 66-9 - 55 WEST HUNTINGTON DRIVE APPLlCA TION: This application has been filed by Hunting,ton Motors, Inc. for the purpose of constructing new and used cor facilities fronting on Santo Claro St, PRESENT ZONING AND LAND USE . The subjecfproperty is partially in Zone C-2 and partially in Zone C-l. A mop illustrating the zoning is attached. Approximately one-halF of the property is presently used for an automobile agency, selling both new and used cars. The property to the west is zoned C-2 and developed with commercial uses. The property to the east is zoned C-1 and developed with commercial uses. The properties to the northeast ore zoned C-1 and developed with 0 number of commercial uses. The property to the north is partially zoned C-l and R-1. The C-l property is being developed with 0 new office structure. The R-1 property is developed with single-family residences which rear on Santo Clara Street. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT The proposed plot plan is for the total development of the property and includes the existing facilities and the immediate and future expansion plans. The subject site development is divided into three ports (See attached mop with notes and lines of division along Santo Claro St.) The existing auto soles and service to the south, the proposed addition to soles and service in the middle portion of the site, and the proposed parking area to the northeast. The southerly portion of the site (Zone C-2) will remain substantially os it exists except for o display areo developed along Santo Claro Street and some additions to the existing parts and service deportment. The middle portion of the site (Zone C-2) is where the majority of the immediate and future expansion would occur. The first phase of development in this area would be the construction of walls including the rear wall for the proposed service department. This will provide 0 backdrop for the new and used cor display area along Santo Claro Street. The service boys and customer-service parking is proposed to be developed as future needs require. . - 1 - I ,) 0> (1/ ? , . . . c. U. P. 66-9 April 26, 1966 Page Two The northeast portion of the site (Zone C-l) is proposed to accommodate employee parking and 0 new cor storage area. A landscaped buffer and masonry wall would screen this area from Santo Claro Street and Morlan Place. ANALYSIS The development of the subject property requires 0 Conditional Use Permit. The principal concern in any development of this type is its relationship to the area within which it is located and the surrounding development. This expansion is proposed in on area where the Commission has extended great effort to produce an upgrading of the area. New construction is taking place with the majority of that construction being east of Santo Anita Avenue. A new office building of high qual ity is being constructed directly north of the C-] portion of the subject property. There ore also residential uses nearby. It is proper that any soles area should not be permitted in that port of the site zoned C-I. This type of use in the C-1 zone south of the new office structure would not be compatible with that use. The C-1 area of the lot is proposed for employee parking and new cor storage which is to be walled. Landscaping is to be planted on the street side of the wall. . Parking isa permitted use in Zone C-l. The new car storage could be said ta constitute 0 form of parking. The Stoff is of the opinion that this parking area con be adjusted to the surrounding uses with proper wall treatment and landscaping. We would not be in favor of two curb cuts along Santa Claro Street on the C-1 port of the property. The northerly most curb cut should be eliminated and the wall continued across this port of the lot. Furthermore, for the better protection of the property owners north of th is area the wa II shou Id be ra ised to six feet ad jacent to Santa Claro Street. The development of the C-2 property, even though it is further from the C-l uses being developed in the area and faces only rear walls of the R-1 zone, is critical in that any use of the type proposed must be adjusted and reflect the quality type development that is the goal for the area. In order to be compatible the typical arrangement of automobile displays, where cars ore placed on asphalt and jammed door-to-daor along the street frontages, cannot be permitted. The applicant proposes to place his display along Santo Claro Street with open space not typical of most automobile display areas. There is also landscaping proposed to be interspersed throughout the display area. The treatment of the landscaping and the walled backdrop is extremely important if this use is to be adjusted to the surrounding zoning and uses. Since Conditional Use Permits require that on applicant live up to terms established at its granting, or face revocation of such permit, proper controls con be exercised to bring about 0 development compatible with the area. . - 2 - ~ 1 . , , o .0 Ii i Il 'to."
