Cammias~ioner King notec; ~:hat he agreed with Chairman Herbst in tliat th~re would be a variety of di~tancea from the pr.operty lines to the face of Che homee and he would favor t~iat rather than rowhousee. Commissioner Jahnson noted that to pre-pzesum~ that all oE the homes w~uld be set beck 25 feet war, n.oC valid, since the developere w~iild not have a marketable product in that case; that he would look skepticall.y at buying a home in an area with a11 uniform, 25-foot s~tba~~cs; thRt the developers would be forced to va:y Cheir setbacka ~aith some being at 25 fe~~t and others being farther back; however, lf aome were neceasary to be 20 `eet, etc.. ~ r.h~ a lenca procedure aould ba used; that the rowhouaes were no longer markeCable; that the City would aot be precluding the developer from varying the aetbacks, howev'er, the intent of the proposed amendments and of the City Colncil wae to try to keep thc houaes farther back frum the curb than presently permitted; that relief would surely be permikted thr.ough a vari:-~ce and the proposal would help the develonment of the City as far as livability wae concerned. Upon questioning by Comn-iseioner Johnson, Chairman Herb~t indir.ated that th e Chree-stall g,arage referred to earlier was for use with the 6 to 10-foot aetbacka only. Commisaioner King made an observation that with the proposed 25-faot aet~ac k, a developer could legally conr~truct e de~elopm~r~t with all of the homes set back 25 feet in a row.

Although the Staff Report to the Planning Cowniosion daC~d :July 22, 1974 was not tead at th~: public hearing, it ie referred to and made a part of Che minutes, Mr, W, Ii. (Bill) BurkQ, one af the agente for the propei'ty ownar, appeared bef.ore the Cammiseion and statod he wao also one of the dev~lopere wiCh the identi~ty of Fickwi.ck Ranchea; and tt~r~t he ~ras avai.l.;ible to answer queationr~ regarding the proposal. THE PUBLIC HRAItING WAS CLOSED. Chair.ma» llerbat noced thaC he would consider the aub~ect requeat as Kpot xoning for commer.:ial uses serving the genersl public; ;hat in ttie past the Commission had al.lowe.d comr~ercial usea r,rienterl to induatry and any coiranerci.al _~~rea~ion z~ning had been reverted to M-1; and that the undet•etanding wae the petitioner ~oas requeaeing a general range of commprcial uses. Mr. Burke s~ated th:+t thPy would be looking for accountr~nt~, architects, real estate brokera~ etc., but not far commercial tenanta as such; Chat any of the uses could be coneidered aligited witli the indu•4trial area; and that they were deairous of avoiding the handicap of comin4 to the P1a.nning Commisaicn wlth each potenCial tc:nant. Chairman Herbat noted t11at perhaps the petitioner had chosen the wrong area for the sub~ecl develupment; and l•haC motels, bank~, etc., ~ere permitted i.r~ the indtistrial zone. Mr. Burke ~tated that Pter 1 was located in the general area, and De~uty Ci~y Attorney Frank Lowry advised that Pier 1 was a noncociforming use that had been in existence for a long period of time. Mr. Burke then atated he underatood the nature of the area along Katella Avent~e wae intended to commercial-rer.reation and Chairman Herbst noted that since the time lhat the C-R zoning was considered, the City Attorney's Uffice had declar~d that mure than one zoning could not be placed on one propercy at; ~ne time; und that tie was concerned with the uses and not wiCh the proposed building. Mr. Burke then queationed how Che other properties in the ar.ea had been allowed to ~evel.op and the Co~amissi.on entered into diacuseion witti Statf regarding other. siwilar develop- atents and the manner in which they were appraved, durir-g which Mr. Surke indic~ted th~t he would r.ot be opgosed to submitting a liat ~f potential uaea and he atated the proposed development would hav~ much landscaping and ample parkictg, but not for commercial uc~es. Chairmsin Herbst made an observation that the subject brea might need to be luoked at for what was Ltxere now and for what it might be in the future, gince the propei'ty had been t~nder the ~nfluencE of the C-k zoning for s Iong per.iod of time. In response to inquiry by the Planniag Commisaion, Zoning S~iFervisor Charles Rob~rts advised tt~at there was po~sibly another petiLi.on Khat ~aas ati? i ar,tive in the area k~hich had been appr.oved subject to certain »aea being allowed and, ther~:upon, the Commisaion delayed any furCher diacueaion to all.ow ~taff an apportunity to r_11PC~C the filc~s and rer.urn wiLt informatio;l £or the Commiesic~n. ~ ~ MIIvUTn5~ (,L'fY Pi,ANNi.tr't% C~N1~IISSIUN~ Ju1y 22~ 141G 74-:353 VAftYANCL' NO. 2b18 iConr.inued} (Tha Coauniesion ~sroco~dad at thia point in the meoting tn t~old the public haaring on Variance 26'21 ecee furthsr. on in tiia minutes.)

Mr. Burke presdnted un c~xl~ibiC ind•icating the l.ocation of. other usue in thQ area including Che Radio Shnck, the Fnbric Wnrehouac, end thQ Lincoln Marcury danlerahip that wae presently under. conaCruction with drivewaye on KaCella Avenue, and etated thc~re were 88 acr~a surrounding the auU~ect property thar. were openly advertiesd for sale a~ commercial xt $100,000 per acre; that, in hia oplnion, if s~meone came in with a eCrong commercial development rsquir.i.ng a vnri.ance, it would and should be granted; and that !f a highly- commercinl use was proposect Eor khat adjacec-t pzoperty, it would be ideal. Mr. auxke ac:aked he. would b~ happy Co atipulata tu the excluairn of physici.ans and dentleCs 1a outlined in Variance No. 2466, howevei•, ho was not suYe what he aauld be omitting and ha mighC be pr~~udi.cing his case in thnt ev~nt. Ch~irman Herbet then noted thut the petitioner could always come bQfore the Cammiseion for a clarifi.catLon to see if a use was within the lntent of the approved usea; and thaC the intent of the City was Co bring the commerctal t~ses bflek dowc~town and there might be a litCle more resietance in that respect tha~ would have baen experienced i.n the past. Mr. B~irlce atated they would like to have the vxXiance granted and ti.ed to the plans an aubmilted, with parking only for office uae and noC for retail uae. Commisnioner Farano noted that alxhough the sub~ect property was zune~ M-1, the General Plan. projected it for commercial-recreat•ion uses; that the sub~ect property aas n.ot solidl.y M-1 and it appeared that similar requests tiad been approved; and that if the Kiely property was onl.y reatricted concerning pr.yslcians and dentists, then iC was doubtful that the Cammisaion could hold the petitioner to more than that; ~nd that the original C-R parcels had been conaidezed on their own merit. Mr. Rober[s noted that wlth the C-R zoning, the properties had a choice of being either commercial or recreational, and in that fashion there would be a lot of incompatible uses. Mr. Burke atated it. seemed tt,at the request for a general o£fice building thx'c.ugh a variance was probably noC inappropriate under the circumstances and that later on in time ehere would be no quesCion as to wheCher it would be appropriate. Ch~irmat~ Hsrbst requested to raview the uees l•lated in the Dunn Propertiea appli.cation under Conditional Use Permit N~. 1427, which included reataurants, a bank, and an office buil.ding, etc.. and following some discuss~.on of the matter, :.t was generally felt that the sub,ject proposal was more in line with the Dunn Properta_ea dc:velopment, and Mr. Burkc sCipulaCed that the rental officea would not generally be r~ade available to phyaician~3 and den[iats due to the locatiun And due ta the increased numbe~r of parking apaces that wauld be needed. Couunisaioner Gaver noted that in the near f~iture, the Commisaian would probably be r.e- quesCed by the Community Redevelopment Coamiiasion not to grant any additional epot zaning in the City, and Commisaioner rarano indicated that t£ thia wsre true, the matter eh~~uld be made public. Cnmmissioner Farano offered a motion, seconded by Co~omissioner Morley and MOTIOr CARRIED (Cocmissioner King being absent), that tt~e Planning Commission recommends to the City Council that thP aub~ect property be exempt from the requirement to pr.epare an Envir~n- menttsl Impac;r Report purauant to the provisi~ns of Che California Environmental Quality Act.

THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. In response to que~:ioning by Chairman Horbst, Mr. Vargas atared the buainess belotiged to ;iis brather; that they had taken out a permit to d~emolish an exie[ing building and the CiCy had adviaed that a variance would be required for the ~onstruction of the new struc- ture; that they were proposing sn 8 to 10-foot wall all around the property with the bui.lding to be located toward the front; and that they would comply with thP Code. In reaponse to queationing ~y the Planning Commisaion, Mr. Vargas it~dicated he did have a City buainess licsnse; ehat the trncks would be 16 to 18-foot gasoline tsucks and a maximuu~ number of 10 trucka would be runni.ng moet of the time; that they owned all of the trucks; that none of the off.ice space would be rented out; that Chey would make mi.nor repairo to their equipment au~:h us tune-ups and maintenance but no major work. Mr. Everett Holmes. 14i32 Mountain View, r~ppeared before the Cammiesion and etated he had lived in the neighborhood of tite anbject property for many years and although he had no objection to the peti.tioner making a living at the subject property, ther~ was enough property involvel Chat they ahould nor. have to bac.k the Crucka in all the time; hut they could develop some other system for enterin3 ttie property. Mr. Vargas anawered Mr. Holmea' concerns in ti manner which appeared to saCisfy the appoaltion. The Planning Cowmission entered i.nto discuesion regarding the possibility tiiat the sub~ect properCy ml.ght revert to commercial in Che future and the need for the requested waivera in that event; Chat there was sone question what the petitioner intended for uae of so much parking area and for the amount of floor apace in Che proposed atructure; that if the plans were redrawn, it was poseible ttiat so many waivers would noC be needed; and ~t was expreased that the proposal aho~ild meet the C-]. site development akandards if and when that zoning became effective in che area, however, presently the petitioner could noc ,ji~stify the hardehip due to the amount of land inv~lved.
