Specific Plan incorporates 23.68 ac. which is smaller part of Urban Design Plan far entire downtown which includes 250 ac. To be urban village concept which spans from heavy commercial on the west from Harbor to Anaheim Blvd.; a transitional area incorporating community use, civic center uses, commercial uses and some residential uses from Anaheim to Olive; and then predomina..~ly residential - all tied together by significant open space and common space, particularly a pedestrian open space spine along Center Street - through the Lincoln Village project and then through the Roll project, all the way to Harbor. 2. Amenities in downtown area including major traffic infrastructure, street improvements, significant capital into undergrounding utilities, sewers and storm drains, significant street scope. 3. Parcel adjacent to Anaheim Memorial M;•.~?r, and near 600-space parking structure. considered transitional block from the higher density area into the lower density residential area; contains residential and retail/commercial uses and is most intense development area at 44 units per acre, but is less than 104 of the total area of the Specific Plan. 4. Parcel 14 N - 2-story apartments over deck parking at 35.1 units per acre - is buffered from single-family residential by major arterial (Lincoln), as well as townhomes to the south, and is below density allowed by current Code - townhomes at 18 units per acre, less than allowed in RM-3000 Zone (ownership units at request of that neighborhood). 5. Parcel 22 - "for sale" single-family and paired homes - 4.75 units per ac*e for single-family and 8.39 per acre for paired homes - well below current Code requirements. Provide higtaer quality of living - forced developer to face units onto Cypress - statement of intent to integrate project into that neighborhood and be a catalyst to get some of the neighborhoods to the north to revitalize. 6. Amenities include - architectural materials on 4 sides, file roof, specific finishing materials. 7. Variances with ezisting development standards: a. garage dimensions - some areas due to architectural treatment on corner to provide better entry to unit and open it up more, loss of 4-1/2 sq.ft. of usable area, but adds to livability of unit - ~:ffects 27 units of the 77 total. b. site coverage - deviate:; 54, but that does not include prs:vate open space of 37,000 sq. ft., including pool area, as wel: as open space area along Atchison. c. driveway & setbacks - at 8 feet which occurs in a cul de sac area, but there is additional adjacent parking available cor gu?sts close to unit. _7_ 7/2/90 ,~ '"`. d. 18-foot long driveway - in paired homes, but additional 1 foot provided because of recessed garage door - with garage door opener. e. minimum street width - majority of anajor streets are private streets at 36 feet wide and are primary entrances on Sabrina, Chartes, Pauline and smaller streets, cul de sacs anft dead-end streets at 25 feet wide; however, no street parking allowed which would be strictly controlled through both association CC6Rs and "no parking" signs posted. 36-foot side streets would have sidewalks on both sides, meeting City standards for private streets. No sidewalks proposed on 25-foot wide streets, but those are very short streets. Center Street improvements include a very significantly landscaped street with a double row of trees on either side e sidewalk, enhanced landscape setbacks and landscape medians. f, front yard setback - in some cases only 6 feet -footprint of building actually 9'8" from the public open space which is additional five feet of median - overhang on the building, dimensions of second story different than first story - total of 14'8" landscaped setback, including median, close to 15 feet traditionally required. g. minimum site coverage - at 55~ overall for townhomes - 409. required - asked Commission to consider open space in front yard similar to a courtyard. additional recreational space is part of Specific Plan where relocated train station will be locsted which will become child care center and an urban park which is 1.8 acres. h. recreationlleisure area - 50~ of units conform - if courtyards considered would be additional 200 feet of usable open space, in addition to adjacent park & recreation facilities. i. parking - original criteria developed by the Agency and consultants was 2.125 parking spaces per unit, and this particular project would be 2.325, exceeding the Agency's original proposal, but less than City requirements. Special consideration was given and Agency approved less trying to encourage people to walk to work. (all units will have a minimum of two spaces). Developer required to offer people who work in project area .First priority to own or rant units. 600 inquiries have already been received from people who wor;c in the area. Walking to wcrk would mitigate traffic congestion and air quality impacts. Variance is very small for this unique situation. Legal to indicate a preference but cannot make it exclusive. Idea encouraged by AQIYID and Agency has received positive comments from other government entities. -8- 7/2/90 ~1 ~ Parcel 4D - apartment site with commercial uses - exceeds City requirements - this site was driving force for Specific Plan because there is no zone in the City which permits residential and retail/commercial uses on same site. 6000 sq.ft. of retail, no alcoholic beverages allowed without CUP, located next to Anaheim Memorial Manor and parking structure. j. deck treatment - calculated incorrectly, actually exceeds Code requirements with 63.5 landscaped coverage on the deck. Developer required to spend $3.88 per sq.ft. on landscaping, compared to $2.00 per sq. ft. normally spent. k. parking - 2.1 spaces per unit on site and criteria approved by Ag~ncy was 2.125; however, additional parking can be accommodated in structure owned by the Agency. Lease Agreement with Agency possible. 1. private storage area - 144 sq. ft. washer/dryer area available which could be considered as storage area - staff does not think 144 sq. ft. is totally adequate and has asked developer to continue working with them to find a way to provide some additional storage space in the garages. Parcel 14N - 2-story over deck parking apartment site. a. slightly below density requirements of RM 1200 Zone. b. meets deck treatment requirements at 65~. c. parking slightly exceeds the Agency's requirements. d. storage area - basically the same as above with washer/dryer area or storage option. e. private common/open space -486 sq. ft. per unit - 250 sf required. Developer is providing trash containers below ground and providing trash chutes. PETITIONER RESPONSES TO COMMISSION COMMENTS: - Tandem parking spaces less desirable - Agreed to provide lease agreement guaranteeing spaces in parking structure to bring parking up to Code requirements. - Greatest parking variance occurs in area closest to parking structure. - Developer requested option of revising plans to provide 18-foot long driveway, or eliminatinoJ one unit if plans cannot be revised to provide a minimum of 18 feet. - Spaces in parking structure could be assigned - with agreement and there would be minimal charge. - Maintenance trucks would haul trash container to the street for pick up once a week. - Objected to statements regarding quality of-life and felt they have been very sensitive to that issue - City does not have many developments offering a child care center and 2-acre park. - Less than .10~ of total project is at higher density,. - Not adding traffic to Parcel 22, but number of people par unit will be less. -9- 7/2/90 '~~1 STAFF COMMENTS: Traffic Engineer Olive to be widened to 60-foot ultimate right of way, 42 feet curb to curb. adequate to provide one travel lane in each direction with center left turn lane median between Lincoln and Center. Residents can access their driveways from center turn lane and be able to back out of the driveway the way they are currently doing and there will be no parking allowed on Olive Street. Re parking - City Council has authorized 2.25 spaces per unit about two years ago which is a slight reduction from current Code - entire project was based on that Code - reduction warranted because of proximity to a major employment center and it is anticipated a lot of employees will walk to work. Entire project is a Specific Plan and addresses conditions dealing with th particular plan without concern about precedent or any other project which does not have a Specific Plan with specific studies conducted. Developer did not propose tandem spaces and that could provide more spaces. Variance is really very small. Fence heights - site distance requirements are per Engineering Standard 137 in all locatio:~s. Any parking shortage would be for guests, not residents, and could be accommodated off site within 1/2 block in structure or available public parking areas. Would not recommend similar arrangement or variance in other areas, but this is a unique area. Did not think parking would overflow into =esidential areas. Some streets do not meet minimum requirements of the city. Fire Dept. - requires 20-wide street. Study indicated width of Olive Street is adequate to handle traffic. Study was done for more intense project than this. Study conducted about 3 years ago and updated in April 1990. (opposition felt study conducted 3 years ago would not have considered the whole Lincoln project). PLANNING STAFF: Requested standard condition pertaining to Mitigation Monitoring Program requiring the developer to be responsible for costs associated to ensure implementation of the mitigation measures identified in the EIR. OPPOSITION: Felt Redevelopment Agency is being given preferential treatment - homes will be for sale to taxpayers on smaller streets, with limited parking, and driveways not long enough to accommodate two vehicles. Also being allowed to move older homes into his neighborhood and many lots not adequate to accommodate them. Has property on Olive which was zoned RM-1200 and has been rezoned to RS-5000 which he has accepted, but no parking is avai]able on Cypress and he has to back out onto a major thoroughfare to get in and out of Y.his driveway. Major concerns discussed constantly about traffic and safety, but suddenly not a concern because it is Redevelopment requesting it. Felt Commission does not listen to neighbors when they sneak out in opposition at the public hearings. -10- 7/2/90 1 COMMISSION COMMENTS: Messe - Felt tandem parking spaces would bring parking closer to meeting Code requirements. - Concerned about 350 parking spaces proposed and 750 required. - maximum fence height in front setback limited to 3 feet for traffic visibility. - would support request if lease agreement is provided for spaces in parking structure bringing the parking in conformance with Code. - Did not feel comfortable approving something that is substandard. Feldhaus Preferred seeing revised Specific Plan document before taking any action because of the number of changes required as noted today. Felt if there was something the Commission did not underste.nd they were voting on, it would be too late. Hellyer Remembered discussions by Mayor Huntez regarding density, quality of life and growth management and he envisioned this area for single-family development. That the Commission holds other developers to the line on Codes and here is another City agency requesting all kinds of exceptions. Noted half of the housing units in Anaheim are rentals. Boydstun Concerning about parking. Suggested eliminating the one unit with the short driveway in order to provide additional parking or eliminating one-half of the paired housing unit. (developer agreed to consider). (Petitioner responded that area meets the code requirements for parking.) Bouas Question school situation. (Pe*_itionei' responded they are also concerned about schools for the entire central Anaheim area and offered school district up to $4 million to assist in providing a site somewhere in central Anaheim to serve not only this project, but the entire downtown area.

Proposing 577 sri, ft. of open space, 88~ of required; landscaping conforms with plans approved by Council. Wall is proposed and 2 feet of landscaping and they did meet with neighbor to the rear an they agreed with plan. Additional landscaping planned in other areas. COMMISSION COMMENTS: Messe asked about 28-foot wide private street and the requi~sment for sidewalks. Large rectangular property - no hardship to justify approval of variance. When RM-2400 zone was amended to allow condominiums, he felt there would need to be very good reasons for granting waivers.

To permit a 37,200 sq. ft. expansion of Anaheim Memorial Hospital with waiver of minimum number of parking spaces. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT RESOLUTION N0. PC 90-167 MOTION REQUESTING TRAFFIC ENGINEERING STAFF TO REVIEW CODE REQUIREMENT FOR PARKING SPACES AT HOSPITAL. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY~OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION. NOT TO BE CONSIDERED OFFICIAL MINUTES. OPPOSITION: 1 person present 1 phone call OPPOSITION CONCERNS: Parking on residential streets, noise of people coming into area during night at shift changes; entrance off West Street to the church parking lot is directly across from neighbor's condominium, visitors to the hospital park on West; traffic is bad when shift changes and the noise is right across from their bedroom and living rooms. Felt problems have been caused with approval of variances and did not want to see it get worse. Wanted to see existing Codes enforced rather than waivers being granted. PETITIONER'S COMMENTS: Expansion is to remove some of the functions of the hospital and allow existing uses to grow and provide better health care to the patients. Doctor's spaces are a political issue, hope to remedy the situation, spaces will not have names, a certain number will be designate3 for doctors and that will be monitored closely. By reorientation of entrance and restriping parking lot, will be more efficient and add a number of parking spaces. Corrected information and explained they are licensed for 240 beds, not 254. Thought Anaheim's method of calculating parking for hospitals is duplicated and too severe. Could be neighborhood parking on West, not hospital employees. COMMISSION COMMENTS: Messe - Doctor's parking lot not fully utilized; realize they have to be close. Questioned employee access on West Street; asked Traffic Engineering to review City's requirements for pproved ranted -15- 7/2/90 ,~ hospital parking, .maybe Codes are a little off and should be changed. Boydstun felt main entrance on Laguna would pull traffic that way and t help the traffic situation on West Street. Noted 101 spaces are being added with this proposal. (Opposition did not feel that is sufficient). Hellyer suggested limiting the number of doctor's parking spaces to possibly 30, with the rest for the employees. (Petitioner did not like to restrict the number and felt removing names and restriping will alleviate that problem; explained existing doctor's parking area will be eliminated with this change; names and signs specifying a certain space for a certain doctor will be removed and no doctor will be promised a certain space; certain number would be designated, but may have to be expanded.) Feldhaus - suggested doctor's parking in the 118 visitors spaces on the West Street side and moving the visitor's parking to the other side. (Petitioner agreed to give that suggestion consideration). STAFF COtyAfENTS: Traffic Engineering - requested a condition be added requiring Laguna Street plans be modified to allow installation of traffic signal in the future if required. Cannot control employees, would prefer them to use La Palma, but if it is closer to use West, they will use West. ACTION: Approved Negative Declaration Approved parking waiver Granted CUP, with added conditions Requested Traffic Engineering staff to review City's parking requirements for hospital to determine. (Traffic Engineering staff explained codes are based on previous studies and there is no exact number and each request should be reviewed individually; and believed in this case, the code is very excessive.

Conditions of agreement was that they could one or the other and not both and preference was to stay on the monument sign. COMMISSION COMMENTS: Messe asked that different types of plants of varying heights be planted in the planter just completed to bleak up the look. Felt sign is needed so hospital can be recognized. Feldhaus - felt the sign should read "hospital" instead of "East Anaheim Urgent Care Center" Hellyer - Only problem was with the way it was done, one thing approved and then somebody added copy and it was done in bad faith and now Commission is being asked to accept it; did not like message that sends to others in the community.
