SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF TEXT AMENDMENT NO. TA 10 -04 AND
INTRODUCTION OF ORDINANCE NO. 2284 AMENDING ARTICLE IX,
CHAPTER 2, PART 7 OF THE ARCADIA MUNICIPAL CODE
PERTAINING TO THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT PROCESS TO
ALLOW AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATIONS AND AUTOMATED SELF -
SERVICE CAR WASHES IN THE C -O ZONE, AND CONSIDERATION
TO AFFIRM THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S APPROVAL OF
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. CUP 10 -17 AND ARCHITECTURAL
DESIGN REVIEW NO. ADR 10 -19.
Recommendation: Introduce Ordinance No. 2284, and Approve
CUP 10 -17 and ADR 10 -19.
SUMMARY
Text Amendment No. TA 10 -04, Conditional Use Permit Application No. CUP 10 -17,
and Architectural Design Review No. ADR 10 -19 were submitted by Mr. Joseph Karaki,
designer /engineer on behalf of the property owner, Mr. Hamid Kianipur, to allow the
conversion of an existing automobile service station into an automobile fueling station
with a convenience mart and an automated self - service car wash at 701 W. Huntington
Drive. An aerial photo with zoning information and photos of the subject site are
attached. These applications were reviewed by the Planning Commission, and they
recommended approval of the Text Amendment, and approved the Conditional Use
Permit and Architectural Design Review, pending the City Council's approval of the Text
Amendment. The Development Services Department is recommending approval of the
proposed Text Amendment, Conditional Use Permit, and Architectural Design Review,
and introduction of the attached Ordinance No. 2284.
BACKGROUND
The property at 701 W. Huntington Drive is developed with a Unocal 76 service station
that was constructed in 1967. There are 16 fueling positions, three (3) service bays,
and a small snack shop. This service station pre -dates the Conditional Use Permit
(CUP) requirements for gas stations. The Arcadia Municipal Code (AMC) currently
does not have provisions for allowing automobile fueling stations (i.e., a gas station with
at least 8 fueling positions and an optional 2,000 square feet of convenience retail sales
area) in the C -O, Commercial -Office zones. The applicant is requesting a Text
Amendment to the CUP Sections of the AMC to allow automobile fueling stations and
automated self - service car washes in the C -O zones.
In recent years, as vehicles have become more technologically advanced and
computerized, the need and ability for general auto servicing to be done at gas stations
has diminished. As a result, the service bays at the subject site are underutilized. The
applicant has made extensive efforts in exploring alternatives to the automobile repair
and maintenance services. Options that the applicant explored include an office
building, coffee shops (e.g., Starbucks and The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf) and
restaurants, and convenience stores. The applicant is constrained by his contractual
commitment to Unocal to sell gasoline at this site. The applicant found that adding an
office building on this site is impractical, and he did not receive any interest from coffee
shop companies or major restaurants. The Economic Development Division has
followed up with Starbucks to see if there was any interest for this site because staff has
received comments that such a use would be welcome in the subject area. Starbucks
initially commented that they were not currently interested in expanding and were not
accepting any new proposals. Staff followed up with the local location office in Burbank
and is awaiting further response.
DISCUSSION
Text Amendment
Section 9275.1.39.3 of the AMC lists "Automobile Fueling Stations" as permitted with a
CUP in the CBD and C -1 or any less restrictive commercial or industrial zone. And,
Section 9275.1.39.3.1 lists "Automobile Fueling Stations and Automated Self- Service
Car Wash" as permitted with a CUP in the C -1 or less restrictive commercial or
industrial zone.
Since the subject property is zoned C -O, Commercial Office, a Text Amendment is
necessary to allow any alteration or expansion of this existing automobile service
station. Staff supports the inclusion of the C -O zone under the CUP Sections for
automobile fueling stations and automated self - service car washes because the uses
are consistent with the General Plan land use designation of "Commercial," which is to
accommodate a wide range of commercial uses that serve both neighborhood and
citywide markets. These uses should be eligible for consideration in the C -O zone,
especially when located at major intersections. Therefore, staff recommends that

Automobile Fueling Station at 710 W. Huntington Dr.
May 17, 2011 — Page 2 of 7
Sections 9275.1.39.3 and 9275.1.39.3.1 be revised as follows with the new language in
Italics and strikeouts indicating the language to be deleted:
9275.1.39.3 — AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATIONS.
CBD and G-4- C -O or any less restrictive commercial or industrial zone.
9275.1.39.3.1 — AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATIONS AND AUTOMATED
SELF - SERVICE CAR WASHES.
G4 C -O or any less restrictive commercial or industrial zone.
If this Text Amendment is approved, a Conditional Use Permit will be authorized for the
proposed automobile fueling station and automated self - service car wash. The
Planning Commission has reviewed, and recommends that the City Council approve the
proposed Text Amendment.
Proposal and Conditional Use Permit
The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing 1,568 square -foot automobile
service building that consists of three (3) service bays and a small snack shop and
office, and replace it with a 2,854 square -foot convenience store building and an 897
square -foot automated self - service car wash. The two (2) existing gasoline pump
canopies over the 16 fueling positions will remain unchanged. The proposed plans are
attached.
Because this automobile service station is legal- nonconforming, any alteration or
expansion of it would require a CUP. And, if the proposed Text Amendment is
approved, the property will be eligible for a CUP to replace the automobile service
station with a convenience store (Circle K) and an automated self - service car wash.
As proposed, the 16 fueling positions under the two (2) canopies will remain. The new
2,854 square -foot convenience store building will have a sales floor area of 1,489
square feet, a 192 square -foot sandwich preparation area (Subway) a 135 square -foot
office, a 182 square -foot cashier's kiosk, and the remaining 856 square feet will be
restrooms and storage. The automobile fueling station (i.e., gasoline sales and
convenience store) is proposed to operate 24 hours a day, seven (7) days a week. The
sale of alcoholic beverages will be limited to beer and wine and to the times allowed by
the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. The hours of the car wash will be
7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., seven (7) days a week.
Lighting and Noise
The Arcadia Police Department has reviewed this proposal and has no concerns about
the sale of beer and wine, but they did express concerns about adequate lighting, and
the noise of the car wash. Numerous lights are proposed throughout the subject site,
and they are all required to be arranged and shielded to prevent any glare or reflection

onto adjoining streets or properties so as not to disrupt traffic or disturb the adjacent
residents.
To address noise concerns, the applicant submitted a sound attenuation study (see
sheet rno. AS -1.0A of the attached plans). The study shows that the car wash will
generate a maximum sound or noise level of 54.2 decibels at the property lines of the
adjacent residentially -zoned properties. This level complies with the maximum of 55
decibels permitted by the Arcadia Municipal Code. And, to help further reduce potential
noise impacts to the neighbors, dense shrubbery is to be planted in front of the block
wall that is to be along the property lines of the adjacent residentially -zoned properties.
Parking and Traffic Circulation
The Arcadia Municipal Code requires automobile fueling stations to provide three (3)
parking spaces for every 1,000 square feet of retail sales area. The proposed
convenience store, including the cashier's kiosk and sandwich preparation area will
have 1,863 square feet of sales area, which requires a minimum of five (5) parking
spaces. The proposal will provide 15 on -site parking spaces in addition to the 16 fueling
positions. Five (5) spaces, including one (1) van - accessible handicap space will be in
front of the convenience store, and the other 10 spaces will be at the north portion of the
site with four (4) of these spaces to be designated for users of the car - vacuums and the
air- and -water dispenser.
There are five (5) existing driveway approaches at the subject site. The proposal will
have only two (2) driveway approaches; one (1) facing each street (West Huntington
Drive and South Baldwin Avenue). The reduced number of driveway approaches was
requested by Engineering Services to improve traffic flow at this intersection.
Architectural Design Review
The proposed architecture is described as a Contemporary style, featuring an "S" -tile
roof to match the existing pump canopies, smooth stucco, ledge stone veneer base,
decorative wrought iron accents, and fabric awnings. Colored elevations are included
with the attached plans. It is staffs opinion that the proposed architectural style is
consistent with the City's commercial and industrial architectural design guidelines.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
At its regular meeting on April 12, 2011, the Planning Commission considered Text
Amendment No. TA 10 -04, Conditional Use Permit No. CUP 10 -17, and Architectural
Design Review No. ADR 10 -19, and voted 5 -0 to recommend the approval of the Text
Amendment, and approved the Conditional Use Permit and Architectural Design Review
applications, subject to the following conditions and pending City Council approval of
the Text Amendment. An excerpt of the April 12, 2011 Planning Commission Meeting

April 12, 2011 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes Excerpt
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. CUP 10 -17, AND ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN REVIEW
NO. ADR 10 -19, AND TEXT AMENDMENT NO. TA 10 -04
701 W. Huntington Dr.
Joseph Karaki, designer /engineer on behalf of property owner, Hamid Kianipur
The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit, Architectural Design Review approval,
and a Text Amendment to convert an existing service station into a fueling station with a
convenience store and a drive - through carwash.
Associate Planner, Tom Li, presented the staff report.
Commissioner Beranek asked if the noise produced from the car wash would have a
negative effect on the adjacent uses. Mr. Li explained that there is a dental office next door,
and to ther ear are the garages for an apartment complex.
Commissioner Chaio asked if there were plans for containment of contaminated wash water
and Mr. Li said that the automated car wash would reuse the water.
Commissioner Chiao asked if this development would generate traffic congestion at Baldwin
and Huntington. Mr. Li said that the traffic plan was reviewed by Engineering and they
determined that any additional traffic could easily be handled by the systems already in
place, and that this development will close the two driveways closest to the corner, which
will improve traffic flow at that area.
Commissioner Baerg asked if approval of the project would be contingent on City Council
approval of the Text Amendment, and if this Text Amendment would be applicable to the
entire city. Mr. Li explained that City Council approval of the Text Amendment would be
required and that the regulations set forth in the Text Amendment would apply to the City as
a whole although any new applicant would be required to file a Conditional Use Permit
application for review by the Planning Commission.
Commissioner Baerg asked if this particular use can be limited to this specific location. Mr.
Kasama explained that instead of a Text Amendment that effects the entire city, the zoning
could be changed, but that would make this property eligible for any commercial use. It
was determined that the restrictions imposed by a Conditional Use Permit will adequately
regulate the proposed use.
Commissioner asked if there are similar operations in the City. Mr. Kasama said that there
is a similar business at Baldwin and Las Tunas in a C -2 a zone.
The Public Hearing was opened.
Chairman Parrille asked if anyone would like to speak in favor of this project.
Mr. Hamid Kianipur, the property owner, said that his business has been serving the
community for 15 years. He explained that the original auto repair business at the site has
declined and he has had difficulty supporting his family. He considered different options for
this property, but found the idea of a convenience store and car wash most promising. He
asked the Commissioners to approve his project and said that he would like to stay in the
community for a long time.
Commissioner Baderian asked Mr. Kianipur if he would comply with all conditions of
approval and Mr. Kianipur said he was aware of the conditions and would have no problem
complying with them.
Mr. Kianipur expressed his appreciation for the courtesy and cooperation granted by staff
throughout the application process.
Commissioner Baderian asked if the current water shortage will impede the growth of this
business. Mr. Kianipur explained that the water shortage will not impede growth because
water will be reclaimed and reused at the site.
Mr. Joseph Karaki, the project architect, thanked staff for their work on the project. He
assured the Commissioners that water conservation is important to his client and that they
are also planning a state -of- the -art energy and lighting system. Mr. Karaki said they hope to
achieve green certification.
Chairman Parrille asked if anyone wanted to speak in opposition to this project.
There were none.
MOTION:
It was moved by Commissioner Beranek to close the Public Hearing. Without objection the
motion was approved.
MOTION:
It was moved by Commissioner Beranek, seconded by Commissioner Baderian, to approve
Conditional Use Permit No. CUP 10 -17, Architectural Design Review No. ADR10 -19 and
Text Amendment No. TA 10 -04 and to direct staff to convey the Commission's
recommendations and comments on the Text Amendment to the City Council, and to
prepare the appropriate Resolution.
ROLL CALL
AYES: Commissioners Baderian, Baerg, Beranek, Chiao and Parrille
NOES: None
A Resolution reflecting the decision of the Planning Commission will be presented for
adoption at the next Commission meeting. There will be a five working day appeal period
after the adoption of the Resolution.
RESOLUTION NO. 1835
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF TEXT
AMENDMENT NO. TA 10 -04 AND APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT NO. CUP 10 -17 AND ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN REVIEW NO.
ADR 10 -19 FOR THE CONVERSION OF AN EXISTING AUTOMOBILE
SERVICE STATION INTO AN AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATION WITH
A CONVENIENCE STORE AND AN AUTOMATED SELF - SERVICE CAR
WASH AT 701 WEST HUNTINGTON DRIVE, PENDING THE CITY
COUNCIL'S AFFIRMATION, AND THE APPROVAL AND
EFFECTUATION OF AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND SECTIONS
9275.1.39.3 AND 9275.1.39.3.1 OF THE ARCADIA MUNICIPAL CODE
TO ALLOW AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATIONS AND AUTOMATED
SELF - SERVICE CAR WASHES AT COMMERCIAL - OFFICE (C -O)
ZONED PROPERTIES, SUBJECT TO AN APPROVED CONDITIONAL
USE PERMIT.
WHEREAS, on November 23, 2010, three applications were filed by Joseph
Karaki of Western States Engineering Inc. on behalf of the property owner, Hamid
Kianipur for the conversion of an existing automobile service station into an automobile
fueling station with a convenience store and an automated self - service car wash at 701
W. Huntington Drive, Development Services Department Cases Text Amendment No.
TA 10 -04, Conditional Use Permit No. CUP 10 -17, and Architectural Design Review No.
ADR 10 -19; and
WHEREAS, the Conditional Use Permit and Architectural Design Review would
not be applicable without the effectuation of an ordinance to implement the text
amendment, which is subject to City Council consideration and approval, the
Conditional Use Permit and Architectural Design Review are nevertheless being
processed in conjunction with the text amendment so as not to separate the three
applications, which are proposed by a particular applicant on behalf of a particular
property owner for a particular piece of property, 701 West Huntington Drive; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission action on a text amendment is advisory to
the City Council, and normally would be definitive subject to appeal on a Conditional
Use Permit and Architectural Design Review; in this situation, the Planning
Commission's action on the Conditional Use Permit and Architectural Design Review by
virtue of being dependent on the text amendment are essentially advisory and the
Conditional Use Permit and Architectural Design Review are subject to consideration
and a determination by the City Council; and
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held by the Planning Commission on April 12,
2011, at which time all interested persons were given full opportunity to be heard and to
present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That the factual data submitted by the Development Services
Department in the staff report dated April 12, 2011 are true and correct.
SECTION 2. This Commission finds:
1. That the granting of such Conditional Use Permit will not be detrimental to
the public health or welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such zone or
vicinity. The proposed fueling station is consistent with the existing General Plan Land
Use Designation of the subject property and will not conflict with the existing uses at or
around the subject site.
2. That the use applied for at the location indicated is properly one for which a
Conditional Use Permit is authorized. The text amendment, if approved, would
authorize an automobile fueling station and an automated self - service car wash with an
-2- 1835
approved Conditional Use Permit in any C -O or less restrictive commercial or industrial
zone.
3. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape to
accommodate said use, and all yards, spaces, walls, fences, parking, loading,
landscaping, and other features required to adjust said use with the land and uses in the
neighborhood. The subject proposal is designed to avoid impacts to surrounding uses,
will improve traffic flow, provides a surplus of on -site parking, and enhances the
landscaping of the site.
4. That the site abuts streets and highways adequate in width and pavement
type to carry the kind of traffic generated by the proposed use. The subject site is
bordered by arterials that accommodate high volumes of traffic.
5. That the granting of such Conditional Use Permit will not adversely affect the
comprehensive General Plan. An automobile fueling station is a use that is consistent
with the Commercial Land Use Designation of the site.
SECTION 3. That for the foregoing reasons this Commission grants approval
of Conditional Use Permit Application No. CUP 10 -17 and Architectural Design Review
No. ADR 10 -19 for the proposed fueling station and car wash at 701 W. Huntington
Drive, subject to approve by the City Council and the effectiveness of Text Amendment
No. TA 10 -04, and recommends City Council approval of Text Amendment No. TA 10-
04 to allow automobile fueling stations and automated self - service car washes at
Commercial -Office (C-0) zoned properties with a Conditional Use Permit, subject to the
following conditions of approval:
-3- 1835
