9269,5,1)
SITE AREA:
21,600 square feet (,50 acres)
FRONTAGES: 160 feet along S, First Avenue
135 feet along E. California Street
EXISTING LAND USE & ZONING:
The project site is a 21,600 square foot parcel on the southeast
corner of First Avenue and California Street. The site is currently
developed with a 6,800 square foot commercial building, which will
be removed subsequent to approval of this project. The entire site
is zoned C-2: General Commercial.
SURROUNDING LAND USES & ZONING:
North: Commercial building (c,1948)-zoned CBD
South: Commercial building (c, 1947) - zoned C-2
East: Eight-unit condominium complex - zoned PR-3
West: First Avenue MiddleSchool- zoned R-3
GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION: Mixed Use- Commercial/Multiple Family
BACKGROUND
Design Review application No, ADR 02-060 was conceptually approved on May 8,
2003, Because any residential development is a conditionally permitted use within
the C-2 zone, a Conditional Use Permit application must be approved concurrently
with the Architectural Design Review. The proposed project is also consistent with
the General Plan Land use designation of the project site, which allows mixed-use
developments,
PROPOSAL
The proposed mixed-use development consists of a three story building totaling
26,257 square feet. The first floor will consist of 7,244 square feet of retail space,
2,714 square feet of restaurant space, and 788 square feet of office space, The
second floor will contain 7.790 square feet of residential space, and the third floor
7,366 square feet of residential space. The residential units will be located adjacent
to the easterly and southerly property lines, in an "L" shape,

Zonina and General Plan
The proposed project is within the C-2 zone and the Mixed Use land use designation
of the General Plan. Residential development is a conditionally permitted use within
the C-2 zone, and is subject to review and approval by the Planning Commission,
The proposed project is subject to the development standards of the C-2 zone and
the City's Architectural Design Guidelines,
The General Plan encourages commercial and residential mixed-use development
within the Mixed Use land use designation, especially projects close to local services
and facilities that promote community interaction and alternative modes of
transportation. The proposed project is in close proximity to the Central Business
District and will provide services for downtown patrons as well as provide services for
residents of the project site. Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with the
zoning and land use designation ofthe project site.
The Community Development Section of the General Plan allows a 0.50 floor area
ratio for non-residential square footage within a mixed-use project, Also, the
maximum density allowed for residential units is 22 dwelling units per acre, or 10
units at the project site, The proposed project will have a commercial floor area ratio
of 0,49 and will feature eight (8) residential units, in conformance with the provisions
of the General Plan,
Architectural Desian
The proposed mixed-use development (II Villaggio) has been designed to resemble
an Italian Village, The first floor buildings are situated in an "L" shape adjacent to the
easterly and southerly property lines, with a freestanding building located directly
adjacent to the northwest corner of the site. Between these buildings is a courtyard
area with a decorative stamped concrete finish to resemble cobblestone, The
building facades facing the courtyard are offset to provide additional architectural
interest and maintain the "village" atmosphere.
The condominium units are situated above the buildings adjacent to the easterly and
southerly property lines, The condominium units form an "L" shape above these
buildings, The restaurant space on the northwest comer of the site is single story
and will not include any residential space. "Unit 8" located immediately adjacent to
First Avenue will be offset from the first story building line, providing a unique
architectural style designed to emulate an Italian village,
All elevations of the proposed project feature plaster walls with multiple colors to
maximize architectural interest in the buildings. Open archways will connect the
restaurant building to the main building, Adjacent to the Califomia Street and First
CUP 03-005 & ADR 02-060

..
e
Avenue elevations, these archways will feature a fieldstone veneer and will serve as
the primary pedestrian entrances to the project site. The roofing material proposed
for all buildings is a Mediterranean style red tile,
Staff has worked with the applicant to further enhance the elevations by including
shutters, second floor balconies, awnings and pot shelves, especially along the
easterly and southerly exterior elevations. The project was also sent to the City's
outside architectural consultant as part of the design review process, Lance Bird,
AlA, reviewed the project and staff incorporated his comments into the required plan
revisions. The proposed project is also consistent with the City's Architectural
Design Guidelines for commercial and residential development.
Parkina
The proposed project will feature two levels of underground parking that will be
accessed from California Street at the northeast corner of the site, The proposed
eight residential units require two covered parking spaces for each unit, plus one
additional guest parking space for each unit. Therefore, 24 total spaces are required
for the residential portion of the development. The residential spaces will be located
on the lower garage level and will be separated from commercial parking by a gate
system. All residential parking spaces meet the minimum dimensions set forth by
the Arcadia Municipal Code.
The total commercial square footage for the project site is 10,746 square feet. The
commercial space will consist of 7,244 square feet of retail space, 2,714 square feet
of restaurant space, and 788 square feet of office space. Sixty-seven parking
spaces are required for the commercial uses as proposed by the applicant. The
applicant has provided 66 parking spaces for the proposed commercial uses, and is
requesting a modfication for 66 parking spaces in lieu of 67 required.
Of the 66 proposed commercial parking spaces, 21 (32%) are small car spaces, The
Arcadia Municipal Code allows up to 20% of commercial parking spaces to consist of
small car spaces. Staff feels that small car spaces within a parking garage are not
desirable and that the number of small spaces should be reduced if possible. By
removing two parking spaces from each level of commercial parking, the total
number of small car spaces needed would be reduced to eight (8) small car spaces.
Although this situation would result in 62 total commercial parking spaces, only eight
(13%) would be small car spaces,
Modification Reauests
Modification Request "A" is a request for a portion of the second floor to encroach
within the 4-foot special setback along First Avenue (Sec, 9320,27.4). There is a
special setback along First Avenue, which is 44 feet measured from the centerline of
the street. A portion of the second floor adjacent to First Avenue encroaches within
this special setback, The modification is oeing requested to allow the second floor to
CUP 03-005 & ADR 02-060
July 22, 2003
Page 4
e
.
e
be offset form the first floor. This will provide additional architectural interest and
building articulation along the First Avenue elevation,
Modification Request "B" is a request for 66 parking spaces in lieu of 67 spaces
required for the commercial portion of the proposed project and a request to allow
32% of the commercial parking spaces to be small car spaces in lieu of 20%
permitted by code (Sec, 9269.5 & 9269,5.1), The applicant is requesting a
modification for one parking space. As discussed in the above analysis, staff feels
the proposed parking layout contains too many small car parking spaces. Therefore,
staff recommends reducing the percentage of small car spaces and providing a total
of 62 commercial parking spaces,
Due to the space constraints of the proposed underground parking garage, staff
feels the parking modification is necessary to make the parking configuration
feasible. Also, Califomia Street and First Avenue have street parking adjacent to the
project site. Staff feels that many patrons of the retail stores will choose to park on
the street, especially for a quick visit. Therefore, staff supports a parking
modification for 62 spaces.
Safety
The Arcadia Police and Fire Departments reviewed this application. The Police
Department recommended that a closed circuit television camera be installed as a
security measure within the underground parking garage. The Police Department
also recommended that the parking garage area be adequately lighted.
Code Reauirements
All City requirements regarding disabled access and facilities, building safety, fire
prevention, detection, and suppression, and site design will be complied with to the
satisfaction of the Building Official, Fire Marshall, and Community Development
Administrator, Compliance is to be determined by having fully detailed tenant
improvement plans submitted for plan check review and approval.
ANALYSIS
The proposed project conforms with all provisions of the Arcadia Municipal Code
except for the minor modification issues discussed in this report, The General Plan
encourages pedestrian oriented development and mixed-use development within the
Mixed Use land use designation. It is the opinion of staff that the proposed project
shall further the goals of the General Plan and shall be beneficial to development
along First Avenue and the entire Central Business District,

. CeQA
Pursuant to the provIsions of the California Environmental Quality Act, the
Development Services Department has prepared an Initial 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 objects of
historical or aesthetic significance that could not be made less than significant with
mitigation incorporation, 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, Therefore, a
Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared for this project. The mitigation
measures are those conditions of approval that address the potential noise, parking,
and police service impacts.

Crime Prevention & Public Security
I inspected the location encompassing the area 306-310 S. First Ave. and
may provide the following suggestions:
Directly across the street is First Ave. Middle School. Care should be given
to insure that the subsequent increase in vehicular traffic does not in any way
pose a threat to the children during drop off and pick up.
The plans call for an underground parking lot. I would suggest that as much
lighting as is practical is installed, and consideration be given to a security
camera.
The area will be adjacent to an alleyway. Big, new signs with dire
consequences should be placed in or about the area to prevent the alley from
becoming a "temporary parking lot".

For
EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
1. A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impacr answers that are adequately
supported by the information sources a lead agency cites In the parentheses following each question.
A "No Impacf' answer is adequately supported if the referenced information 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
fectors as well as general standards (e.g., the project will not expose sensitive receptors to
pollutants. based on a project-specific screening analysis).
-3-
CEOA Env. Checklist Pert 1, 7/02

e
File No...CUP 03-005 & ADR 02-060
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 Impacf' is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is
significant. If there are one or more, "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is
made, an Environmental Impact Report is required.
.Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation
measures has reduced an ellect 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).
4.
5.
Earlier analyses maybe used where, pursuant to the tiering, program Environmental Impact Report,
or other CEQA process, an ellect 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.
a) Earlier Analyses Used: Identify and state where they are available for review.
b) Impacts Adequately Addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were within the
scope of and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal
standards, and state whether such effects were addressed by mitigation measures based on
the earlier analysis.
c) Mitigation Measures. For effects that are "Less than Significant with Mitigation Measures
Incorporated," describe the mitigation measures that were incorporated or refined from the
earlier document and the extent to which they address Site-specific conditions for the project.
6. Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist, references to information sources
for potential impacts (e.g., 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
statement is substantiated.
7. Supporting Information Sources. A source list should be attached, and other sources used or
individuals contacted should be cited In the discussion.
8. The explanation of each Issue should identify: .
a) The significance criteria or threshold, If any, used to evaluate each question; and
b) The mitigation measure identified, if any, to reduce the impact to less than significant.

a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge
requirements?
b)
Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere
substantially with groundwater recharge such that there would be
a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local
groundwater table level (I.e., the production rate of pre-existing
nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support
existing land uses or planned uses for which penn its have been
granted)?
c)
Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area,
including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river,
In a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation
on- or off-site?
