3. McBurney - felt this church might be in wrong location for its
planned expansions and would be intrusion into the single-family
V-;,
~ ~,.:, neighborhood and have a severe impact on traffic and noise.
Suggested since they own properties to the west, possibly revising
the plans and eliminating the waivers. Should not infringe on
neighborhood.
4. Hellyer - had problem with development adversely impacting existing
homeowners, even if it is a church. Insensitive to neighbors,
these are all single-story homes
STAFF COMMENTS: Project presented for environmental review purposes was
for an addition to an existing school and there was an existing
conditional use permit for 100 students (regardless what type student)
and staff felt comfortable that it would not have significant impact on
the traffic; however, night events not considered; subsequent to public
notice, neighbors contacted staff and discussed concerns and this
project appears to be something different than a school and is more a
multi-purpose room for all types of functions. Staff is no longer
comfortable with recommendation that project is exempted from
preparation of an EIR and further EIR review needs to take place to
consider concerns about access, visual intrusion of 26-foot high
structure, intensification of use since the facility could be used every
night of the week; should review traffic as it pertains to the ultimate
build out, including the proposed sanctuary; project before Commission
is only a portion of a bigger project and environmental impacts of
entire project need to be considered.
Petitioner requested vote rather than continuance to consider changing
~'~~ plans. Stated they have an existing facility and want to maximize it
and wanted to replace temporary facilities with permanent building and
provide adequate fellowship room. Cannot provide access on East Street
at this time.
ACTYON: Categorical Exemption status denied - Found project would not
fit the definition of Categorical Exemption, Class 14 and would not be
exempted from the requirement to prepare an EIR.
Waivers - Denied
Conditional Use Permit - Denied
VOTE: 5 yes votes

----------- ----------------------
FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION. NOT TO BE
CONSIDERED OFFICIAL MINUTES.
OPPOSITION: 1 person present
OPPOSITION CONCERNS: waiver of height restriction in Scenic Corridor;
would set precedent for future developments; other height waivers were
granted because not many residents lived in the area yet to oppose them;
perhaps instead of having a 35-foot high limit, maybe the code should be
reviewed and the limit increased; felt height could be reduced without
impacting project or creating hardship for hospital because of the
existing land; no hardship for granting waiver other than economic; land
was purchased with knowledge of limitations.
PETITIONER'S COMMENTS; CUP would permit building 7'3" above height
restriction; skylight just over the lobby area; purchased property
subject to existing CC&Rs, granted easement for directional sign for the
various owners and were under impression they could be added to sign,
but were not added; presented model of proposed project and drawing of
landscaping treatment. Reciprocal parking agreement requires each
;tenant to share parking with other tenants; trying to maximize use of
property and were aware of height limitations, but were also aware other
waivers have been granted. Hospital is non-profit organization and this
was commenced after studies in the community indicated a need for
i
'~,.~ medical services.

COMMISSION COMMENTS: Questioned mechanical equipment building location
(petitioner indicated not putting anything on the roof). Questioned
need for height waiver (petitioner explained it is due to the need to
.,~~'; have first floor ceiling higher for use of equipment; and they could
j;~~~ build a two-story building with a larger first floor); questioned
distance from freeway ramp of other developments (staff explained 35 to
55 feet have been allowed); questioned multi-tenant signage. Stipulated
to increased setback to 35 feet).
Representative from sign company - explained base of monument sign was
modified and they will be putting in landscaping; that application for
urgent care letters has been submitted. Misunderstanding when property
changed hands.
Hellyer - concerned if one sign is allowed, others will want same
privilege and wanted to find a way if the channel lettering is lost,
they could do something else. Wanted coffee break area relocated to
rear of the k,xilding, so that waiver is similar to others granted and
thought that was 50 or 55 feet. Approval of this is laying groundwork
for another building which could be the same height. Would not support
waiver for anyone else; setback waiver was due to location on the corner
for another property owner.
Messe - Suggested switching mechanical equipment building and the coffee
break plaza to the east side; asked for stipulation of more landscaping
around coffee break area so it is less intrusive into the setback area.
(applicant agreed and stipulated to bring landscaping plans to staff for
approval). Only a portion is at 35 feet and the rest is at 50 feet.
'"'~ STAFF COMMENTS: Explained they could have one wall sign and n.o
~f`~"`~ freestanding or roof signs, and if they do not use the established sign,
the only alternative would be a wall sign on the building.
Setback would be in conformance with other setback waivers granted.
First motion offered to approve Negative Declaration was not seconded.
Suggestion was to either continue for full Commission to be present
since one Commissioner declared conflict of interest and another
Commission was abstaining due to possible conflict due to volunteer work
at the hospital. Commissioner Hellyer questioned height of the Hill
Williams project on the northeast corner of Weir Canyon and the freeway
and staff noted it was 39-1/2 feet to 57-1/2 feet.
Robert Sloan of the hospital explained explained their function is to
provide maximum of health care to the community, ar_d it is extremely
important they the hospital watch their economics closely and not spent
a valuable resource and requested a vote rather than continuing the
matter until a full Commission is present.
ACTION: Approved Negative Declaration
Granted waivers, subject to coffee break plaza area being
landscaped more heavily with staff approval of the plan and the setback
being 35 feet rather than 30 as proposed.
Granted Conditional Use Permit
VOTE: 3 yes votes
Commissioners Boydstun & Herbst absent
Commissioner McBurney - conflict of interest
Commissioner Bouas - abstained - conflict of interest, but sat in
for hearing to create quorum.

~~ OPPOSITION: None
PETITIONER'S COMMENTS: Building at 950 used as contractors office and
the one at 970 was an insurance headquarters, but new tenant at 970 put
up a large changeable sign and request is for four waivers regarding
sign problems and also to change use from limited industrial to office
for the 970 building. Thought they had proper permits and even had
Caltrans permit (Commission explained permits were for time and
temperature displays only). Thought problems was result of signs being
too bright and the illumination has been lowered (Code Enforcement
explained complaints about changeable copy) tenants would not happy with
right to display only time and temperature because sign was very
expensive and they want advertisement as well.
COMMISSION COMMENTS: Feldhaus thought if these were two different
properties, each could have a sign; problem is with changeab~:; copy.
STAFF COMMENTS: When staff approved sign, did not reali2e all the other
signs were on property because they were not shown on tho plan.

OPPOSITION: None
PETITIONER'S COMMENTS: Explained 3 properties to the west are owned by
three separate owners and they could not come to terms to purchase
because of a large t :: lien; will dedicate a 4-foot easement for water
rights; had done similar project previously and created landlocked
parcels; indicated it would be difficult to grant access easement since
this is a deck housing project and would mean changing whole plan; and
it would mean a 4-foot wide easement across the entire length of the
property). Indicated he hoped someday to acquire those three parcels.
Concerning waiver of landscape setback, developer indicated revised
plans submitted but that original plan was superior.
COMMISSION COMMENTS: McBurney - Concerned about landlocking three
properties to the west;
Hellyer - suggested dedicating access to those properties.
Bouas - agreed the first plan with 130-sq.it. recreation. leisure area is
better.

FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION. NOT TO BE
CONSIDERED OFFICIAL MINUTES.
OPPOSITION: 1 person present in opposition
Petition submitted in favor.
OPPOSITION CONCERNS: 4 lots on Loara are affected by 3-story apartment
complex across the street which eras permitted and has ruined their
neighborhood and owners of those four lots would like privilege of
selling their properties to developers for apartments as well, but this
change would be denying them the same rights the owner across the street
had. Only lots which are narrower than others. Thought this was a
redevelopment area (Commission noted it is not a redevelopment area).
Felt if reclassified developers would not purchase them for apartments.
