eight (8) lots and developed with single-family residences with a common driveway in
accordance with the condominium standards allowed in the R-3; Medium Multi-Family
Residential zone. The Zone Variance is required to deviate from the minimum required side
yard setbacks requirements and a reduction in the amount of required guest parking. All area is
commonly owned, including the back yards, which are reserved exclusively for use by the
individual owners. The specifications will be identified in the Covenants, Conditions and
Restrictions (CC&Rs). The proposed residences will have between 1,762 and 1,875 square feet
of floor area. The floor area ration (F.A.R.) for the entire common area is 51%, although the R-
3; Medium Multi-Family Residential zone does not have a maximum floor area ratio. The
proposal is well below the density for High Density Residential (0 - 30 units per acre). The

Architecture
There are fora- (4) different residential designs for the proposed project. The applicant has taken the
character of the surrounding neighborhood into consideration in the design of the proposed pontes.
The proposed exteriors are light earthtonc and gray colors that will soften the "looming" presence
that a larger development has the potential to create in a single-family neighborhood. Also,
architectural elements have been added to eliminate impacts of two-story homes that the proposed
project may have on surrounding Properties.
The applicant has proposed ear(htone exterior color combinations for each unit in the following:
Units A & D: The color and imitcrial of the main body of the units will be La Habra Stucco X-48 in
"Meadowbrook" with a light clash finish, smooth finish trim in X-97 "Pacific Sand" and exposed
wood rafter tails painted ,vhitc. The roofing material will be the Moniferlife tile in the "Casa
Grande" blend. The stone veneer for the base and accents of the units is a Coronado Stone Product
in "Dakota Brown".
Units B & C: The color and material of the main body of the units will be La Habra Stucco X-50 in
"Crystal White" with a light dash finish, smooth finish trim to X-820 "Silverado" and exposed wood
rafter tails painted white. The roofing material will be (lie Moniferlife tile in "Granite Grey". The
stone veneer for the base and accents of the traits is a Coronado Stone Product in "Bear Creek".
Units E & H: The color and material of the main body of the units will be La Habra Stucco X-23 in
"Aspen" with a light clash finish, smooth finish trim in X-24 "Santa Fe" and exposed wood rafter
tails painted white. The roofing material will be the Noniferlife tile in the "Pacific Red Blend". The
stone veneer for the base and accents of the units is a Coronado Stone Product in "Sioux Falls".
Units F & G: The color and material of the mails body of the units will be La Habra Stucco X-34 in
"San Simeon" with a light dash finish, smooth finish trim in X-21 "Nlianti Peach" and exposed wood
rafter tails painted white. The roofing material will be the Moniferlife the in "Sedona Gold". The
stone veneer for the base and accents of the units is a Coronado Stone Product in "Cashel
Mountain".
All of the units also have a combination of architectural accents, including wood window shutters,
exposed rafter tails, clay pipes above the windows, ontante11(al aluminum for some of the windows
Nvhich will be painted in Frazee "Spice Tan", a multi-color 8" x 8" ceramic tile detail on the
cliinutevs and decorative exterior lighting. Each unit also pas a variety ofwindow shapes and sizes,
distinctive front entries including turrets and some entirely covered in stone veneer. A variety of
roof lines have been incorporated into the project, Producing an assortment of hip and gable roof
systems.
The colored renderings of the elevations will be available to view at the Planning Commission
Meeting.
Landscaping and Fencing
Each residence will include new landscaping with a combination of trees, shrubs, and sod. Each lot
will have a combination of 15-gallon and 24" box trees in the fi-ont yard as well as low growing
flowers and shrubs. A variety of plants and ground covers will be chosen to create colorful front
yards along the private driveway and looking from Walnut Grove Avenue as well as for Units "A"
and "B" including 24-inch box "Red Crape Myrtle" and "Goidenrain" trees, sod, Italian Cypress,
Day Lilies, Pink Abella, Indian Hawthorne, Star Jasmine and creeping vines. The rear yard areas
will be covered in sod and a 15-gallon "Coral Gum" tree. Each parcel will be equipped with an
•
gation system including automatic timer's and rain sensors.
There are existing concrete block walls surrounding the site. Any substandard or deteriorated
fencing will be removed and replaced with a decorative block wall, limited to 4'-0" in the required
front yard setbacks and 6'-0" in the side and rear yards.
Parking and Access
Condominium projects typically require a 11n11llIlUnl Of two (2) parking stalls lvlthln a garage per
unit, pltts two (2) guest parking stalls per unit. The proposal originally had a total orthirty-two (32)
parking stalls. The Tentative IvIap and architectural plans were forwarded to the County of Los
Angeles Fire Department for review. The Fire Department originallyreconunended denial due to the
lack of adequate turn-around area. The applicant revised the plans, whicli incorporated a
hammerhead designed turn-around. Willi the implementation of the hammerhead, two (2) of the
guest parking stalls were eliminated. Instead of two (2) guest parking stalls per unit, it was reduced
to 1.75 guest parking stalls per unit, requiring a Zone Variance. The guest parking stalls are not
specifically assigned to any one unit and are fi'ee to be used by any residential guest.
Along Walnut Grove Avenue, there are restricted parking areas "red curb", which are on the east and
west sides of (lie street. From the intersection of Rio Dell Street and Walnut Grove Avenue south to
the intersection of Walnut Grove Avenue and Wells Street and Edniond Drive there is restricted
parking. Portions of the subject property are also within restricted parking areas, but there is
available street frontage north or the pro~lecl for on-street overflow parking.
Neighborhood Character
In comparison to surrounding properties, development on the subject site would be less. The
proposed homes are consistent with many or the new planned development proiects recently
proposed to the Planning Department For review. Although, lire existing lot is occupied with single-
famil_v homes and accessory structures, the new units are compact and are developed as single-family
residential and provide two (2) enclosed parking stalls and 1.75 guest parking stalls. These homes are
smaller than similarly approved proiects throughout Tile City of Rosemead.
Staff has worked with the developer in designing a project that will create new single-fancily housing
in the City without detracting from the character of the existing surrounding neighborhood. in
addition, adverse impacts to the character of the surrounding neighborhood will be mitigated and
architectural interest is added to the project by varying roof ridgelines, setting the second story
farther back than the first, tile roofing, cultured stone veneer and other.' aesthetically pleasing
elements. Overall, staff feels that the addition of this residential development will increase property
values and the general aesthetics of the neighborhood.

EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No impact" answers that are adequately supported
by the information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses follow ing each question. A "No Impact"
answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show, that the impact simply does not
apply to proiects like the one involved (e.g., the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No impact"
answer should be explained where it is based on ptojecl-specific faclors as well as general standards (e.g.,
the project will not expose sensilive receptors to pollutants. based on a project-specific screening analysis).
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 as Nvell as operational
Impacts.
Once file lead agency has determined that a particulcn' physical impact may occur, then the checklist
answers Must indicate w'hefher the impact is potenftall_% significant, less than significant with mitigation, or
less than significant. "Potentially Significant impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an
effect may be significant. If there are one or nwic "Potentially Significant impact" entries when the
determination is made, an EIR is required.
4. "Negative Declaration: Less Than Significant With Miti;ation Incorporated" applies where the
incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a
"Less Than Significant Impact." The lead agency must describe the mitigation treasures, and briefly
explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level (mitigation from Section XVII, "Earlier
Analyses", may be cross-referenced').
5. Earlier analysis may be used where, 111.1l'Slrant 10 the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, an
effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier LIR or negative declaration. Section 15063 (c) (3) (D).
Earlier analyses are discussed in Section 17 at the end ofthe checklist.
6. Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information sources for
potential impacts (e.g. general plans, zoning ordinmices). Re[erence to a previously prepared or outside
document should. where appropriate, include a rclcreuce to the page or pages where the statement is
substantiated.
7. Supporting information Sources: A source list shontd be atfachcd, and other sources used or individuals
contacted should be cited in file diwit-1011.
3. This is only a suggested form, and lead agencies are free to use different ones.
9. The analysis of each issue should identify: (a) the si_•uiticance criteria or threshold used to evaluate each
question; and (h) the mitigation measure identified, it any, to reduce the impact to less than significant.

6. GEOLOGY AND SOILS (Less Than Significant Iinpact)
A) The entire City of Rosemead lies in a seismically active region. Though there are
various properties in the city that arc situated in the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault
Zoning Act, this project area is not one ol' those properties. There are no known
active surface faults ithin the project area, Nt hich may impact future development.
However, severe ground shaking from a rcpunal earlllquakC would impact ]lot only
the project area but alsn the entire site and surrounding area. According to the State
of California Seismic hazard Zones. most of the City of Rosemead is located within
an identified liquefaction zone. There are older structures dirougllout the city, either
not built or reinforced to meet earthquake. standards that are susceptible to loss by
liquefaction. The Building and Safety Department requires soils reports and require
That foundations are constructed to Illecl the jimurnutt liquefaction requirements.
("-D) As future develupnlenl occurs in the city, new structures will replace older buildings
and Nvill colllply, with cill-i-ellt codes. BUCausc this Project involves new constrt]clion,
soil reports will be submitted at Plan Check liar review and approval by the City's
Building Department. The soils reports will tlelernline if any methods of miligatiolt
will be required.

A-F) The implementation of Zone Chanve U5-219, Zone Variance 05-332 and Tentative
Tract Map 063143 will not create adverse impacts to (lie hydrology and Nvater quality
of the area. The proposed project will not create potential impacts to the volume,
drainage pattern, rate of flaw, and ovcral l quality of any, body of water.
The quality of stornlwater runoff is re`,ula(ed under the National Pollution Discharge
Elimination System (NT'DES). The NPDES stormwater permits provide a
mechanism for monitoring the (_liscilarge of pollutants and i:or establishing
appropriate controls to minimize the enhance of such pollutants into stoi7iiwatei

permittee, the COUnly~requires all (Icyclopmenl projects in its jurisdiction to comply
with the NPDES requirements for construction and operations as appropriate.
This project was distributed to the. .1):m Gabricl County Water District, the water
purveyor of the suhjecl Bile. for rcyiccw and comment. Tile San Gabriel County

G-,1) Water-quality impacts depend on the conditions of the community where a project
will be located and what it will involve. The suhjecl site is not located near any water
hasin that may be affected. Since the CIIY of Rosemead has been declared by the
Federal Emergency Nkinngemenl A gcnc v (FENI A) to he in Zone "C", flood insurance
is nut mandatory and there is no Community panel Ilood map for (lie city.

changed to R-3; MCdiunn Nlulti-Family Residential zone and the proposed use of the
site is consistent with the current land Wcs and. Llie- City's General Plan and Municipal
Code. Although, the project involves the subdivision of one (l) parcel into eight (8)
parcels. the proposed project will not physically divide the existing community.
B) The proposed lot subdivision and eight (8) emit development have been designed to
comply with the requirements as set forth under (he land use designations in the
General Plan and the Zoning District.
Aside from the analysis of the project's environmental impacts, extensive review has
been given to the actual design of the prop(.)sed project. All proposed structures have
been extensively reviewed by the City's Platuiing. Building, and Engineering
Departments for code compliance and adherence to design guidelines.
C) The proposed project will not conlli(l «ilh any applicable habitat or community
conservation plan.
10. MINERAL RESOURCES (No Impact)
A) There are no mineral resources Rated "00i afar project area so as to result in loss of
availability of such resources.
L') The. Rosemead (jencral flan and Municipal Qde do not include all approved land
use flan that indicates a locally important iiiincral resource. Therefore, the proposed
project will not result in the loss of availability of a locally important mineral
resource discovery site.
1. NOISE (Less Than Signiticaii( impact)
A) The proposed development will generate construction noise, traffic-related noise, and
the general activily noise. The City of Rosemead has established noise/land use
compatibility guidelines consistent wish State of Califorriia criteria. According to
Chapter &36 of the Rosemead Munichud Code. the Allowable Exterior Noise level
for a residential land use is 60 dBA (decibels) between 10pna and lam and 65 dBA
between lam and 10y". The propo::cd project is expected to comply with these
acceptable levels of noise.
B) Because the proposed project is a Iot :;uhdivisinn for the development of eight (8)
single-family residences, no person will be exposed to excessive groundborne
vibration or excess groundborne noise Icy cls.
C) Since the proposed project will result in the construction of eight (8) new structures, it
is expected that the noise level may irwi-case from the previous use. The noise may
be derived from the increase in the nun dicr of families that will be living at the
I11irr'r1.5/m/1.

subject site. The proposed( project a iii result in additional pedestrian and vehicular
tralllc noises. The increase in noise Icv(,ls is not considered to be srlhstmrtllal.
D) Since ibis project involves the construction of new buildings, there will be a
substantial temporary increase in ambient noise levels above existing levels that may
be created due to construction aclivilics. All construction work shall comply with the
(inlefratile and decibel levels indicated in the City's noose ordinance.
C-r) The project is not located in the vicliwv of a private airstrip or located within (wo
miles of an airport and therefore has no noise. Icvel impacts on the people residing or
Nvorking in the pro.lecl area.
12. POPULA'CION AND 110USING (No Inlpac;)
A) This proposed project will not result in substantial growth in the City's poprdanOll.
IIowever, since the project involves lbc construction of eight (8) new single-family
residences, there will be an increase in the City's current population as well as the
introduction of a new private slice(. :tIlhouyh, (lie applicant is proposing to change
the zone of the subjecl site from P-I: Singlc [wilily Residence to P-D; Planned

cun-ent homeowners and potential btivers.
B) This proposed subdiyisloll of one (I) parcel into eight (8) parcels will result in the
demolition of two existing resldcnti;tl mills. The parcel in question is currently
developed wilh ntllltiple single-fanlik. h nntcs.
C) This project does involve the demolinon ol'two residential units, but will not result in
a substantial displacement of resident... These units were not multi-fatntly rental

13. PUBLIC SERVICIN,S (No Impact)
A-B) Because the rate of use is not expected to chance significantly due to tills
development, it is anticipated that the implementation of this project will create a
minimal increase in the demand for public- services, such as fire and police protection.
The City is not currently plarlnin0 the cMnstruction of new or altered government
facilities needed to nialntalll acceptable service ratios, response tirtlcs, etc. However,
the impact will not impair services to Ihk: C'ily and its residents.

Angel Liu , of Pho King Restaurant. has submitted a conditional use permit application for a new
On-Sale Beer and Wine (Type 41) ABC license for a bona fide public eating establishment, located
in the C3-D (Medium Commercial in a Design Overlay) Zone.
EXHIBIT B
• •
Presentation: Assistant Planner Sherri Bermejo
Staff Recommendation: APPROVE- subject to the conditions listed in "Exhibit A" for six
(6) months.
Chairman Loi called for questions from the Commissioners.
Chairman Loi questioned the adequacy of parking for the restaurant. Planning Assistant
Bermejo reviewed parking plan.
Applicant(s): In the audience.
Chairman Loi opened the public hearing to those IN FAVOR of this application.
Raul Pardo, 8772 Valley Boulevard, represented the applicant. Mr. Pardo asked if the
Commissioners had received the letter the applicant had prepared for them. Planning Assistant
Bennejo noted that the letter is Attachment B to the Staff Report.
Mr. Pardo said that the applicant is a new owner of the business and that the past history of the
property should not reflect negatively on the new owner. He further stated that they are only
applying for a liquor license and do not feel that all the conditions of approval are appropriate
under the circumstances. The applicant does not want to remove the karaoke machine which
they are using as a public address system. The applicant also wishes to retain the parquet dance
floor because they may wish to apply for an entertalmnent license eventually. Also, Mr. Pardo
said the applicant does not wish to move the service counter into the kitchen as this would be
very expensive and the counter is currently used by clients when seminars are conducted in the
dining room. He further stated that he could not understand the requirement to remove the lotto
machine.
Planning Director Johnson said that during his inspection of the property he noted that the
karaoke machine is set up for use as a karaoke machine and not a public address system. He
recommended that the conditions of approval remain unchanged because the physical layout of
the building ]ends itself to the same type of problems that occurred in the past.
Barrish Balin, a business associate of the applicant, stated that the applicant is willing to remove
the karaoke machine and replace it with a computer. He said the applicant is still reluctant to
remove the staee and parquet dance floor because they may want to apply for an entertainment
license eventually.
Conunissioner Kelty said that if Ms. Lui, the owner, would assure the Commissioners that the
service counter would be used only for wine and beer, the parquet floor would not be used for
dancing and the stage used only for seminar speakers he would be willing to consider deleting
Conditions 23 and 27 and add a new condition requiring the modification of the karaoke system
to a presentation room.
Planning Director Johnson said that staff recon-unends that the conditions remained unchanged to
reduce the possibility of reoccurrence of the very serious problems experienced in the past.
• •
Public hearing was opened to those who wished to OPPOSE the application:
None.
There being no one further wishing to address the Commission; Chairman Loi closed the public
hearing segment for this project.

property owner and she asked for the status of this case.
Planning Director Johnson advised that this is an ongoing Code Enforcement case that has been referred

WHEREAS, on August 31, 2005, notices were posted in 8 public locations and 60 notices
were sent to property owners within a 300-foot radius from the subject property specifying the date,

WHEREAS, on October 3, 2005, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed and
advertised public hearing to receive oral and written testimony relative to Tentative Tract Map
0631243; and
WHEREAS, the Rosemead Planning Commission has sufficiently considered all testimony
presented to them in order to make the following determination.
NOW, TIiEIIEFORE, BE IT RE, SOLVED by the Planting Commission of the City of
Rosemead as follows:
SECTION 1. An Initial Study was completed in accordance with the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This study reviews the potential environmental impacts of
the proposed project. This study has found that there are no potentially significant environmental
impacts that could occur with the proposed Zone Change 05-219, Zone Variance 05-332 and
Tentative Tract Map 063143. Therefore, a Draft Negative Declaration has been prepared. A
copy of this initial study is provided as Exhibit "C".
SECTION 2. The PIaruing Commission I IEREBY FINDS AND DETERMINES that facts
do exist to justify approving Tentative Tract Map 063143 according to the criteria of Section 16.04
of the Rosemead Municipal Code as follows:
A. The map will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare nor injurious to the
property or improvements in the immediate vicinity.
FINDING: Property in the immediate vicinity will not be detrimentally affected by the
proposed subdivision because the homes have been designed within the property development
standards of the R-3 (Multi-Family Residential) zone and the map conforms to the minimum
standards of the Los Angeles County subdivision regulations.
B. Tile proposed division will not be contrary to any official plan adopted by the City
Council of the City of Rosemead; or to an)- official policies or standards adopted by the City Council
and on file in the office of the City Clerk at or prior to the time of filing of the application hereunder.
FINDING: The site is designated as high density residential in the General Plan maps and
Single-Family Residential in the "Zoning maps. The proposed development includes Zone Change
05-219 from R-I to R-3 (Medium N41-11ti-Family Residential) and Zone Variance 05-332 to deviate
fi-onn the mininnurn required side yard setback requirements and a reduction in the amount of required
guest parking. With approval of the Zone Change and Zone Variance, this proposed development at
its site would bring the property into conformance with the adopted General Plan.
C. Each proposed Tract conforms in area and dimension to tine City codes.
FINDING: The proposed tract map will subdivide one parcel into eight (8) lots for the
development of eight (8) new single-family residential units and a common driveway to provide
ingress/egress to the development. The applicant has applied for a Zone Variance to deviate from the
minimum required side yard setback requirements and a reduction in the amount of required guest
parking and the Plaiming Commission is recommending City Council approval of a Zone Change
from R-1 (Single Family Residence) to R-3 (Mediurnn Multi-Family Residence). All minimum lot
sizes are adhered to.
D. All streets. alleys and driveways proposed to serve the property have been dedicated or
such dedication is not required for the protection of public safety, health and welfare and that such
streets, alleys and driveways are of sufficient width, design and construction to preserve the public
safety and to provide adequate access and circulation for vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
• i
FINDING: The City Engineer has reviewed this proposed subdivision relative to the
adjacent right-of-way and the private common driveway has been reviewed by the Los Angeles
County Fire Department in meeting their subdivision and access requirements. Based on these
reviews, it is determined that the design and construction of this project Would preserve the public
safety and provide adequate access and circulation for vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
E. Alley easements and covenants required f '()t- the approval of the tentative map or plot plan
have been duly executed and recorded.
FINDING: Prior to recordation of the final tract map, the applicant is required to record a
covenant for ingress and egress, utility and drainage easement. Fire lane, and maintenance of
driveways, as required by the City Engineer.
An applicant must obtain a variance in order to create a development that does not meet the
minimum standards. Section 17.108.020 sets criteria required for granting such a variance. If one of
these criteria cannot be met, then the variance may not be granted. These criteria require that
granting such a variance will not:
A. Constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations upon other
properties in the vicinity.
FINDING: This proposal will not be detrimental to the existing neighborhood and will not
be granting any special privilege to the property owner. In fact, staff feels that the addition of this
residential development will increase property values and the general aesthetics of the neighborhood.
Surrounding low density neighborhoods have similar setbacks established.
B. The project will not be materially detrimental to the public health or welfare or injurious
to the property or improvements in such zone or vicinity.
FINDING: Staff has worked with the developer in designing a project that will create new
single-family housing in the City without detracting from the character of the existing surrounding
neighborhood. This project is of a size and scale that creates a transition from the higher density
uses to the north and the lower density neighborhood to the south.
C. The project will not adversely affect the comprehensive General Plan.
FINDING: The site is designated in the General Plan for High Density Residential and the
zone change to R-3 would be consistent with the General Plan land use designation.
D. That because of special circumstances, the strict enforcement of the code would deprive
the subject property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity under identical zone
classification.
FINDING: Surrounding parcels have been developed at much higher densities with less
open space and setback areas. The project is designed with adequate usable yard areas and
landscaping.
SECTION 3. The Planning Commission HEREBY APPROVES Tentative Tract Map
063143 for the subdivision of one parcel into eight lots. for the development of eight new single-
family residential units; Zone Variance 05-332 to deviate from the minimum required side yard
setback requirements and a reduction in the amount of required guest parking; and recommends City
Council approval on Zone Change 05-219 to change the existing R-1 (Single Family Residential) to
R-3 (Medium Multi-Family Residential) zone, located at 4433 Walnut Grove Avenue (APN: 5372-
018-039), subject to the conditions listed in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference.
