Property History and Description
The subject property is located adjacent to Don Bosco Technical Institute on the south
side of San Gabriel Boulevard in the southern portion of the City. The site consists of
one parcel, totaling approximately 108,400 square feet (2.53 acres).
According to Planning Division records, the property was annexed to the City in April of
1969. Conditional Use Permit 81 -241 was approved on March 15, 1982 for the
establishment of a 22,560 square foot church on the site with a maximum occupancy of
400 seats. The church was also required to obtain approval of a Planned Development
Planning Commission Meeting

before the project could be implemented.
After the initial approval, the church was redesigned and an approximately 11,790
square foot, two -story sanctuary building that is situated on the southwest corner of the
property was approved on April 21, 1986, as Phase I of Planned Development Review
86 -01.
On May 4, 1992, the Planning Commission approved Conditional Use Permit 92 -552 for
installation of three temporary trailers for classroom use. This approval was extended
for two years on July 19, 1993 by Zone Variance 93 -255.

Administrative Analysis
Purpose
Evergreen Baptist Church of Los Angeles is proposing to construct a "Children's Village"
at the southern end of its campus on San Gabriel Boulevard. According to the applicant,
the primary use of the new facilities will be for the programming and activities for the
Children's Ministries of Evergreen Baptist Church of Los Angeles. These activities
would take place on Sundays and include infant/toddler care, children's worship, and
children's Sunday School classes. These activities would take place only on Sundays,
when other church services are occurring simultaneously in other church buildings. In
order to concentrate these activities on the church grounds, the church is proposing the
addition of three new buildings. The campus currently includes a two -story sanctuary
building and a two -story administration building. The existing buildings will not be
modified.
Planning Commission Meeting

Paae 4 of 17
Site Plan
As illustrated in "Exhibit C," two new classroom buildings and a chapel would be
constructed at the southern end of the church property. This area is currently used as
landscaping and parking. Building "A" would be a 4,120 square foot, one -story building
containing six classrooms, two offices, two storage rooms, and restrooms. The building
would be attached to the existing sanctuary building. Building "B" would be an
approximately 1,530 square foot one -story building containing two classrooms,
restrooms, and a trash enclosure and be located along the south property line. The
purpose of these two classroom buildings is to relocate the Sunday School facilities that
are currently housed in the administration building.
The third building that comprises the proposed project is a 1,560 square foot multi-
purpose Children's Chapel (Building "C "). The three new buildings will be constructed
around an outdoor recreation area which will include a basketball court, lawn, and other
landscaping.
Floor Plan
Buildings "A" and "B" will be devoted to Sunday School classrooms with supporting
offices, storage, and restrooms. Building "A" will include six classrooms averaging
approximately 327 square feet in size. Each classroom can accommodate an average
of 17 students. Building "B" would have two 450 square foot classrooms, which could
each accommodate 23 students. All of the classrooms would be accessed from the new
central recreation area of the Children's Village.
The proposed Children's Chapel will be rectangular shape with a slight taper to the east
side of the chapel. The chapel will have an open floor plan with no fixed seating and
entrances on the north and south side of the building.
Elevations
The applicant is proposing a contemporary architectural style for the classroom
buildings and Children's Chapel that will complement the existing buildings on the
church campus. The classroom buildings will have a plaster textured finish with metal
revels. The classroom buildings will be 13' -0" to 18' -0" feet in height. Aluminum
storefront windows will be provided for each classroom. No windows will be provided on
the property line facing Don Bosco Technical Institute.
The Children's Chapel will feature a similar architectural design as the classrooms,
incorporating plaster metal revels on the exterior walls and aluminum storefront
windows. The design will also incorporate a cross motif on the east and west elevations
of the building and a seam metal roof over the sanctuary. The maximum height of the
chapel is 20' -0 ".
According to the colored renderings, which will be available to view at the Planning
Commission meeting, the specific colors and materials proposed for the commercial
building utilize a tan and dark pastel palette. The plaster treated exterior walls will be

warm tan color ( "Tavern Taupe" #8673M by Frazee) with a darker brown trim ( "Woodlet"
#8685D by Frazee) The classrooms will also have additional accent colors ( "Seaquest"
#8035D, "Red Valerian" #8405D, & "Southwest Amber" #7795A by Frazee) to add
visual interest for the children. The Children's Chapel will utilize the same Tavern Taupe
and Woodlet colors with an additional blue /grey accent color ( "Fog Buoy" #8574M by
Frazee).
Because the existing and proposed buildings are set back approximately 462 feet from
the public right -of -way and partial hidden by buildings on an adjacent property to the
north, the new buildings will be hardly visible from San Gabriel Boulevard.
Parking and Circulation
Access to the site would be via an existing driveway on San Gabriel Boulevard. The
existing and proposed church buildings are setback approximately 462 feet from San
Gabriel Boulevard. An existing parking lot with 117 parking spaces is located between
the buildings and the San Gabriel Boulevard public right -of -way. Nineteen (19) parking
spaces at the southeast corner of the property will be eliminated to make room for the
new classroom buildings.
The parking requirements for the existing church facilities (sanctuary and administration
buildings) were determined to be 133 parking spaces through the approval of PD 86-
1(MOD) in 1999 when the administration building was approved and constructed. This
figure was based on a maximum occupancy of 400 persons in the sanctuary building.
Pursuant to Section 17.84.080(A) of the Rosemead Municipal Code (RMC), one parking
space is required for every three persons based on the total occupancy permitted by the
Uniform Building Code. It was also understood that the uses in the new administration
building would not generate separate parking demand from the sanctuary building on
Sunday's when the sanctuary building would be in full use.
To evaluate the current parking demand on the site, the applicant was required to
prepare a Parking Demand Study to determine the peak parking demand for the
existing facilities. The Parking Demand Study concluded that the peak demand for
parking was on Sunday's between 12:30 p.m. -1:00 p.m. and that 226 spaces were
needed for the existing buildings and 27 spaces would be required for the Children's
Village. The total estimated parking demand for the proposed project is 253 parking
spaces.
In addition to the parking demand analysis, staff has determined the code - required
parking for the project would be 64 parking spaces for the new classrooms and
Children's Chapel. When combined with the 133 code - required parking spaces for the
existing sanctuary and administration buildings, the total code - required parking is 197
parking spaces.
As indicated above, after elimination of 19 parking spaces, there will be 115 on -site
parking spaces. Since this is not enough to meet the code - required parking of 197
spaces or the analyzed parking demand of 253 parking spaces, the applicant has
Planning Commission Meeting
March 7, 2011
Page 6 of 17
agreed to enter into an off -site parking agreement with Don Bosco Technical Institute to
provide the right for the church to use 138 parking spaces located on the adjacent Don
Bosco Technical Institute property on Sundays. With the inclusion of off -site parking,
Evergreen Baptist Church of Los Angeles will be able to provide 255 parking spaces on
Sundays. Staff has included Condition of Approval No. 30 to require the recording of an
off -site parking agreement to ensure the parking is available for the church on Sunday's.
During the week there are relatively few activities and the Children's Village would not
be used at all so the existing 115 on -site parking spaces will be sufficient to meet the
mid -week parking demand.
Landscaping and Fencing
The applicant is proposing approximately 6,720 square feet of new landscaping in the
Children's Village portion of the church property. The landscape plan indicates the use
of a wide variety of plant materials, which include: Blue Oak, Fairmont Maiden Tree,
Mexican Feather Grass, Heavenly Bamboo, and other plant materials. The proposed
landscaping will be compatible with the well manicured and mature landscaping in the
parking areas and non - disturbed portions of the site. The project will also be subject to
the City's Water Efficient Landscape regulations, which encourages the use of low
water usage plant materials.
The project site is currently enclosed with six -foot high fences and walls from the
surrounding properties. No new perimeter fencing or walls are proposed. A 6' -4" tall
decorative split face block wall is proposed to be located on the east side of the
Children's Village to separate this area from the parking lot.
Lighting
According to the site plan, a total of fourteen (14) light pole fixtures are proposed
throughout the site. These light poles will be 10' -0" to 22' -0" feet tall. The proposed
buildings will also incorporate decorative wall mounted light fixtures. A condition of
approval has been added to ensure that all new lighting will be fully shielded and
directed downwards to mitigate glare on adjacent properties.
Signage
There is an existing monument sign at the entrance to the church on San Gabriel
Boulevard. No new signage is proposed.
Municipal Code Requirements
Section 17.76.050 of the Rosemead Municipal Code (RMC) requires the submittal of a
development plan for new construction in the P -D (Planned Development) zone.
Section 17.76.050 provides the criteria by which the Planning Commission may
approve, approve with conditions, or deny a Planned Development Review application:
Planning Commission Meeting
March 7, 2011
Page 7 of 17
• That the proceedings to alter the development plan for this Planned Development
zoned property is justified in that it is in the public's necessity, convenience, and
general welfare and is good zoning practices for such action;
The proposed church expansion will permit the reconfiguration of the church's
facilities to provide classroom and worship facilities for its children's ministries. The
children's ministries programs and activities are currently provided in the
administration building on the church campus. Thus, the proposed project does not
materially alter the functions being conducted on the church property. The proposed
development is consistent with existing land uses in the neighborhood. A private
school is located to the east of the site (Don Bosco Technical Institute) and a
religious institution (St. Joseph Salesian Youth Renewal Center) is located to the
south of the site. Conditions of approval have been included with the project to
protect the welfare of persons working and residing in the neighborhood including
the location of the trash enclosure, adequate parking, and complementary
architectural design features proposed within the overall design of the building.
The new development has taken into consideration the adjacent properties and
improvements surrounding the site and has added high quality architectural design
to complement the neighborhood. The new classroom and chapel buildings are only
one story tall which is consistent with surrounding developments and will be barely
visible from the San Gabriel Boulevard public right -of -way Also, the proposed
classrooms and chapel uses typically do not generate excessive noise which might
be harmful to surrounding properties. Therefore, the proposed design and use of the
site for a classrooms and a children's chapel will not be injurious or detrimental to
the general welfare of the City.
• The Planning Commission may approve or conditionally approve minor modifications
or development in the Planned Development zone if compliant with the General Plan
and compatible with existing and future developments in surrounding areas.
The site is designated in the General Plan as Public Facilities and is developed with
a religious institution. The proposed use is in conformity with the General Plan, in
that P -D (Planned Development) zoning is a corresponding zone district with the
Public Facilities land use category. Since the church was approved with a Planned
Development Review (PDR 86 -1), the use is consistent with the P -D (Planned
Development) zone. As indicated above, the use is consistent with the educational
and religious institutions abutting the property in the same zone and the expansion
of the church to provide enhanced educational programs is consistent with the
purpose of the Public Facilities General Plan land use designation with promotes
land uses that are operated and maintained for the public benefit.
