Each room is a typical hotel room with bed and bath areas. Small meeting rooms
will be available for hotel guests only, There will be no conference facilities.
Each hotel will be located on a separate parcel but will have shared parking as
well as access to the site. The Hilton Garden Inn will be located on the northerly
portion ofthe site.
The hotel will service a continental breakfast for guests. A swimming pool is
proposed adjacent to the "pavilion" entry area.

Continental breakfast will be available for guests; however, each room has a
small sink, refrigerator and microwave, A swimming pool is proposed adjacent on
the easterly side of the building.
Parking, Circulation and Landscaping
Parking is located adjacent to each hotel; however, fhe site has been designed to
allow for shared parking, if needed. The Arcadia Municipal Code requires a total
of 251 parking spaces for both hotels (1.2 spaces per guestroom); the applicant
is proposing 209 spaces (1 space per guestroom).
Entrance to the hotels will be from three driveways, two off of Second Avenue
and one off of Santa Clara Street. The main entranp:l to the site will be off of the
northerly driveway on Second Avenue. Circulation is, provided throughout the
entire site and persons entering the hotels from any of the driveways may access
either one of the hotels.
Landscape Quffers and planter areas are provided around the perimeter of the
property and'within the parking area. There are two oak trees on the site; one is
located north of the Hilton Garden Inn and the second is located along the
westerly property line, south of the properties on Santa Clara Street. The oak
tree along the westerly property line must be removed to provide space for the
Edison utility line, two transformers to serve the properties fronting on Santa
Clara and a trash enclosure. The oak tree north of the Hilton hotel will be
included in the landscape planting area.
MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION
The site is located within the Redevelopment area. The Redevelopment Agency
has owned the property since its purchase in 1989. On March 17, 1998 the City
Council and the Redevelopment Agency approved the Disposition and
Development Agreement (DDA) with Stonebridge Companies for development of
the subject site with two hotels. As noted in the Council/Agency staff report,
approval of this project is subject to the conditional use permit process.
The site includes the vacated Wheeler Avenue as' well as an alley north of the
vacated street. The alley vacation is scheduled for completion by September
1998. Because the land underlying the alley is included in the development,
Stonebridge will be required to provide vehicular and utility access over their site
to the businesses located at 152 and 154 East Santa Clara Street. This has
been provided for in the DDA and Stonebridge's site plan. The Redevelopment
Agency has been working with the property owners of these properties as well as
with Stonebridge to provide utility services and the necessary easements.

A tentative parcel map has been filed to create two lots from the existing 19 lots
plus the vacated alley, portions of Second Avenue and Wheeler Avenue
(Tentative Parcel Map,98-007).
DESIGN REVIEW
Concurrent with the consideration of these conditional use permits, the Planning
Commission may approve, conditionally approve or disapprove the applicant's
design concepts.
As noted above, the two hotels will be located on separate lots, however, there
will be common landscaping and paving patterns on both to unify the
development. The landscaping on Second Avenue will be compatible with the
landscaping at the Eh,bassy Suites hotel across the street.
The 4-story Hilton Garden Inn will feature a distinctive porte cochere and
connected one-story "pavilion" entry building fronting on Second Avenue. This
structure serves as the focal point for hotel activities. The pavilion's exterior
walls are predominantly glass with grayish brown colored walls and white wood
trim. The green roof and the grayish brown color serve as a unifying element
with the larger 4-story main hotel structure to the rear. Integrating several roof
gables breaks up the long roofline of the main hotel. The balance of the fac;:ade
is a combination of stucco finish and glass windows. The architect has broken
up the building's mass by providing surface relief below each of the gabled roof
areas and incorporating deep scoring lines at strategic locations on the facade.
Each of the window air conditioning units has full width grills. The roof will be a
blue concrete tile.
The 4-story Marriott Fairfield Suites is situated parallel to the railroad berm with
the main entrance facing 'to the northeast. The hotel entry and registration
functions are more integrated in the main hotel structure than those of the Hilton.
The architect has been able to add a considerable amount of articulation to this
four story structure by varying the roof line in several locations, incorporating a
chimney, adding roof gables, stepping the fac;:ade back in phases from the main
entry outward, using built-up pilaster and bands and adding columnar elements
at pedestrian level. The roof will be a green concrete tile.
Staff has worked closely with the applicant in the designs of the proposed hotels.
It is our opinion that the applicant's proposals meet the intent of the design
criteria set forth. in the City's Architectural Design Review Regulations and that
the architecture is distinctive as well as compatible with the surrounding hotels,
ANALYSIS
Hotels are permitted uses in the C-2 zone, Development of this site with two
hotels will further the goals and objectives of the Redevelopment Plan and the
C.U,P,s 98-009 and 98-0010

City's general Plan by strengthening the City's land use and social structure and
alleviate economic and physical blight within the Project Area.
Based upon a 1995 study prepared by Walker Parking Consultants, (attached),
most cities surveyed only require 1 space per guestroom. Many require
additional spaces for ancillary facilities such as conference facilities, restaurants,
etc. It is the opinion of the Community Development Division that the parking
modification request is appropriate based upon our experience as well as the
parking study prepared by Walker Parking Consultants.
CEQA
Pursuant to the prOVIsions of the California Environmental Quality Act, the
Community Development Division has prepared an init(al study for the proposed
project. Said initial study did not disclose 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 opjects of historical or aesthetic significance, When considering the
record as a whole, there is no evidence that the proposed project will have any
potential for adverse effect on wildlife resources or the habitat upon which the
wildlife depends.
Although the proposed development will not cause serious traffic impacts, based
upon a parking analysis prepared by O-Rourke Engineering relating to the impact
of this project on the surrounding area, Stonebridge will contribute to the need for
a future traffic signal at First and Santa Clara and for signal modifications at
Santa Anita and Santa Clara. Stonebridge's share of the cost is approximately
$17,500 that will be paid to the City prior to the close of escrow on the property.
In addition, the Stonebridge proposal will necessitate some restriping of Second
Avenue. This restriping will remove on-street parking on the west side of Second
Avenue and establish a continuous left turn lane in the center of the street.
Based upon staff's analysis, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for these
projects.
RECOMMENDATION
The Development Services Department recommends that the Planning
Commission approve C.U.P. 98-009 and C.U.P. 98-0010 subject to the
conditions set forth below:
1. All improvements shall be compatible with the site plans on file in C,U.P. 98-

MEMORANDUM
DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT
Date: April 22, 1998
TO: Judy Chu, Assistant Engineer
FROM: for J Ed Cline, Traffic Engineer .,---7
SUBJECT:
Site Plan Review for Fairfield Inn& Hilton Garden Inn
j
As requested, t have reviewed the site plan for the proposed hotels on the wests ide of
Second Avenue between Huntington Drive and Santa Clara Street. The traffic study
identified potential impacts to the intersections of:
· Santa Anita Avenue and Santa Clara. Street
. Santa Clara Street and First Avenue
.
The study also recommended certain mWgation measures and developed a "fairshare" of
the cost of these improvements that should be attributed to the project. The study is on file
in the Planning Division. Pete Kinnahan has advised the applicant of these costs and the
applicant has apparently agreed to the amount.
Relative to the site plan, Second Avenue should be re-striped to accommodate a
continuous two-way left-turn lane between Huntington Drive and Santa Clara Street. The
applicant should be responsible for the re-striping plan as well as its implementation.
My specific comments relative to the re-striping plan are shown on the attached site plan.
As an additional comment relative to the site plan, the Disabled Parking spaces near the
Fairfield Inn'may need the required side buffer as are depicted for those abutting the Hilton
Garden Inn. Also, consideration should be given to widening the driveways to 30 feet.

Date: April 15, 1998
EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
I, A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by
the infonnation sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer
is adequately supported if the referenced infonnation sources show that the impact simply does not apply to
projects such as the one involved (e,g., the project is not within a fault rupture zone), A "No Impact" answer
should be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards (e.g" the project
will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening analysis),
-'
2. All answers must take account of the whole action involved, including off-site as well as on-site, cumulative as
well.as project-level, indirect as well as direct, and construction related as well as operational impacts,
3, "Potentially Significant Impact" is. appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significant, If
there are one or more, "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the detennination is made. an
Environmental Impact Report is required,
4, "Potentially Significant Unless' Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation
measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less Than Significant Impact"
The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a
less than significant level (mitigation measures from Section I7 "Earlier Analyses" may be cross-referenced).
5, Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program Environmental Impact Report, or othcr
CEQA process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or Negative Declaration {Section
15063(c)(3)(D)}, Earlier analyses are discussed in Section I7.althe end of the checklist.
6, Lead a.\lenc;es are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist, references to infonnation sources for potential
impacts (e,!!., general plans, zoning ordinances).. Reference to a previously prepared or outside document
should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statementis substantiated,

Unless Mitigated." an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but
it only needs to analyze the effects that have not yet been addressed. .
[ ]
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the
environment, there WILL NOT be a significant effect in this case because all
potentially significant effects have been analyzed adequately in an earlier
Environmental Impact Report pursuant to applicable standards and have been
avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR, including revisions or mitigation
measures that are imposed upon the proposed project.

EV ALUA TION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
I. A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by
the infonnation sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question, A "No Impact" answer
is adequately supported if the referencedinfonnarion sources show that the impact simply does not apply to
projects such as the one involved (e.g" the project is not within a fault rupture zone). A "No Impacf' answer
should be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards (e,g" the project
will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening analysis),
2, All answers must take account of the whole action involved, including off-site as well as on-site, cumulative 'as
well as project-level, indirect as well as direc~ and constrUction related as wellas operational impacts.
3, "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significant. If
there are one or more, "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the detennination is made, an
Environmental Impact Report is required,
4. "Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation
measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less Than Significant Impact."
The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a
less than significant level (mitigation measures from Section 17 "Earlier Analyses" may be cross-referenced),
5, Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program Environment.llmpact Report, or other
CEQA process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or Negative Declaration (Section
15063(c)(3)(D)}. Earlier analyses are discussed in Section 17 at the end of the checklist.
6. Lead ,agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist, references to infonnation sources for potential
impacts (e,g" general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a previously prepated or outside document
should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated,
