CC - Item II.A - Planned Development ReviewI �
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR
AND MEMBERS OF
ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL
FROM: FRANK G. TRIPEPI, CITY MANAGER
DATE: JANUARY 16, 2002
SUBJECT: PLANNED DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 00 -01
TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 53377
(8723 -8729 Mission Drive)
A. BACKGROUND
This is a request to develop a twelve (12) lot, single- family, detached residential development
within the Planned Development (Pb) zoning district, located at 8723 -8729 Mission Drive. The
City Council has previously reviewed three residential development proposals at the subject site
over the past eleven years, from the same property owner, Mr. Bill Lau. The first request in
1990 was for the development of a thirteen (13) lot subdivision which was approved by the City
Council. Due to an economic downturn in the early 1990's the project was never constructed. In
1994 the applicant proposed another residential development increasing the density of the project
from thirteen (13) lots to nineteen (19). This proposal was denied by the City Council due to the
design proposal including zero lot line setbacks and a general feeling that the proposal was too
dense. Most recently the City Council denied this current application for the development of
thirteen (13) lots. Resolution 01 -12, denying the project was adopted by the City Council on
April 10, 2001. The applicant subsequently revised the project to address the City Council
concerns and this project was presented again to the Planning Commission on December 17, 2001.
The Commission unanimously approved the project with the revisions made by the developer.
B. ANALYSIS
The project proposal is now to develop the property with one less parcel and therefore creating
one less housing unit. The re- designed project does address setback concerns raised by the City
Council during the March 27, 2001 City Council public hearing.
P
JAN 2 2 2 -002
ITEM No.
The General Plan Land Use Map splits this property into two different districts. The west half is
designated as low density residential and the east half is designated for high- density residential
development. Low Density allows from zero to seven units per acre and high density allows for
zero to thirty units per acre. With an overall site area of approximately 1.7 acres, this project falls
within the definition of a "low density" development (1.7 ac. x 7 units = 11.9 units). Although
the applicant is not proposing high density, they are proposing slightly smaller front and rear yard
areas than would be accepted in the R -1 or R -2 zones throughout the City. The project exceeds
the minimum open space requirement of twenty five percent, as outlined under the Planned
Development zoning designation.
The developer has not altered the size or the floor plan layout of the proposed homes. All of the
homes are proposed to be two -story with four bedrooms and range in size from 2,275 to 2,393
square feet, each with a two car garage. The architect has designed four different floor plans
throughout the development with four different exterior elevations to enhance the appearance of
the cul -de -sac neighborhood.
As noted in the minutes attached to this report, the City Council had several concerns with the
design of the subdivision as it was presented last March. The concerns included the following:
1) Driveway lengths that could not accommodate larger vehicles to park; 2) Lot sizes smaller
than allowed in the R -1 zone; 3) Small side and front yard areas for the north lots; 4) The need
for affordable housing in Rosemead. The developer has modified the project to address the
majority of these concerns. These modifications are as follows:
Issue: Driveway lengths too short
Developer's Response: Driveway lengths have been extended from approximately sixteen feet to
twenty one feet.
Issue: Lot sizes smaller than 6, 000 square feet (R -I zone)
Developer's Response: One lot was removed from the design to provide an average lot size of
5,076 square feet. The property was previously re -zoned by the City Council from R -1 to R -3
and the general plan calls for a strip of high density along this portion of Mission for one half of
this site. The PD zone allows for variance from the minimum setbacks called for within the R -1
zone.
Issue: Small side and front yards for the north lots
Developers Response: All homes were shifted to allow for sixteen foot year y ards throughout the
development and a minimum of twenty one foot front yard setbacks. The side yards on the. north
lots were increased from five feet to sixteen feet.
Issue: Need for Affordable Housing
Developers Response: The project does not make an economical rate of return if the home sales
prices are not maximized.
Staff Response: The City does not currently utilize an inclusionary housing ordinance to mandate
the affordability /price range of homes within a residential development. Also the updated
Housing Element indicates that the Regional Housing Needs Assessment as adopted by the
SGVCOG and SCAG also calls for the construction need of homes for above moderate income
levels of 287 units between 1998 and 2005.
As redesigned, the floor area ratios of the lots range from a low of twenty-five percent to a high
of thirty -nine percent. The average floor area ratio is thirty -four percent. It is staff's opinion that
the overall design and architectural elements of the project is of a high quality and is appropriate
for the area.
C. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
Section 15332 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and local environmental
guidelines exempt projects that consist of infill development projects of less than 5 acres in size
that will not have a significant effect on traffic, noise or air quality. Accordingly, Planned
Development Review 01 -01 and Tentative Tract Map 53377 are classified as a Class 32
Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15332 of CEQA.
D. RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council APPROVE Planned Development Review 00 -01 and
Tentative Tract Map 53377, subject to the conditions in Exhibit "A ".

If the Plamring Commission cannot make all of the findings, then it shall deny the map.
Platmed Development — Chapter 17.76 of the Rosemead Municipal Code provides the basis by
which a planned development is approved. The purpose of this zone is to accommodate various
types of development such as
• Shopping centers, professional and administrative areas,
• Multiple housing developments,
• Single - family residential developments,
• Commercial service centers and industrial parks and
• Other uses or a combination of uses which can be made appropriately a part of planned development.
Such a development may be established to provide diversification in the location of structures and
other land uses while insuring compliance with the General Plan and compatibility with existing and
future developments in surrounding areas.
Property History & Description
On February 5, 2001, the Rosemead Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map 53377 and
Planned Development 00 -01 for a 13 -tract single - family residential development. Subsequently, a
public hearing was held before the Rosemead City Council. At the March 27, 2001 City Council
meeting, council members addressed concerns with the setbacks, especially that of the rear yard and
the vehicle back -up to the garage.
Due to these concerns, the applicant, residential developer Bill Lau, along with project engineer Tom
Cao and project architect Homer Yen, have redesigned the project into a 12 -tract single- family
residential development. The extent of the redesign involves the bulb of the cul -de -sac, realignment
of the residences, and an increase in lot sizes.
The subject site consists of two parcels, one at 23,810 square feet and the other at 48,430 square feet,
for a total of 72,240 square feet. The existing house at 8723 Mission Drive was built in 1920. The
six homes located at 8729 -39 Mission Drive were built on October 5, 1953. All the existing
structures will be demolished as part of this development.
There have been several entitlements for the subject site since 1963. On October 24, 1963, the City
Council approved Zone Change No. 3 and Ordinance No. 125, changing the site from R -1; Single -
Family Residential Zone to R -3; Medium Multi - Family Residential Zone. The basis for this was to
create an orderly transition between the commercial zone east of the subject site and the residential
zone to the west.
On .Lune 18, 1990, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map 48811 and Zone Change
90 -174 for the zone change from R -3; Medium Multi - Family Zone to P -D; Planned Development for
the development of thirteen (13) single - family residences. A public hearing before the City Council
was held on August 14, 1990 for consideration of Ordinance No. 667 for the development under
Zone Change 90 -174 (which was approved by City Council). Because of the recession at that time,
this project was not completed. Section 17.76.160 of the Rosemead Municipal Code indicates that if
a proposed development is not implemented within a specified time or one year after the project's
approval date, that the development plan shall be null and void.
A public hearing before the Planning Commission was held on August 1, 1994, for the development
of nineteen single - family residences under Tentative Tract Map 51727 and Zone Change 93 -198.
The nineteen (19) parcels varied from 2,590 to 4,912 square feet in area. The homes were designed
based on a zero lot line development, which allows one or more sides of a structure to be built onto
the property line.
A public hearing before the City Council was held on September 12, 1994 for the consideration of
Ordinance No. 748 for the proposed development under Zone Change 93 -198. Due to concerns with
the proposed setbacks and floor area ratios of this development, Ordinance No. 748 was denied.

Description - The subject site consists of two existing rectangular parcels located at the northern
portion of the city. Currently, there are seven residential structures within the two lots that will be
demolished as part of this development. The applicant plans to subdivide these two lots into 12
parcels for the development of twelve single- family residences. Access to the property is from
Mission Drive, a secondary arterial road. This proposed project will incorporate the development of
a public street with a 36 -foot radius cul -de -sac (future Dubonnet Avenue) and 6 foot wide sidewalks.

Administrative Comments & Analysis
The applicant proposes to subdivide the subject property into twelve (12) lots with a public cul -de-
sac street. The proposed lots Would range in area from 4,329 square feet to 7,038 square feet with
the average lot consisting of 4,664 square feet. The proposed homes would face on the proposed
public street (future Dubonnet Avenue).
Though some of the proposed homes do not meet the minimum rear and front setbacks required of
the R -1; Light Single Family Residential or R -2; Light Multi - Family Residential Zones, the Planned
Development (PD) zoning designation encourages diversification in the location of structures while
complying with the General Plan.
Tentative Tract Map Review — The applicant proposes to subdivide the 72,240 square foot lot into
twelve separate lots. The lots range from 4,329 square feet to 7,038 square feel in area (See Figure
1.1). The map was distributed to various agencies for their review on October 18, 2000. Responding
agencies have made their comments, which are on file.
The City Engineer has checked the Tract for its accuracy. The City Engineer's conditions of
approval have been added to the attached as Exhibit A. These conditions include the following
requirements:
• A 36 -foot wide - public street;
• A six foot wide easement for utility and pedestrian sidewalk with 3 foot by 3 foot tree wells;
• Adequate lighting system for the proposed public street;
• Two wheelchair ramps; at least one parkway tree along the frontage of each lot; and
• A street name sign.
The Los Angeles County Fire Department has indicated that upon the review of this tract map that
the installation of one new public fire hydrant would be required. The Southern California Gas
Company has identified the following conditions for construction over their easements:
• No change of grade without prior written approval of Southern California Gas
Company.
• No permanent structures within the easements, i.e., buildings, concrete pads, block
walls, etc. Should the Gas Company have to remove any temporary structures over
our casements, the re- installation would be done at the property owner's expense.
• No planting of trees or deep - rooted plants without the written approval from
Southern California Gas Company.
• No poles, signs, or fence posts to be installed without the written approval from
Southern California Gas Company.
• Ingress and egress rights to and from the pipeline must be maintained.

Pacific Bell has indicated that the appropriate easement requirements will be determined at a later
stage of development. The Los Angeles County Department of Health Services has no objection to
the proposed project provided that sanitary sewers arc utilized as a method of sewage disposal. The
Sheriff's Department has no objection to the .project provided addresses are clearly posted at
driveway entrances. Southern California Edison and Charter Communication have stated no,
objection to this project proposal.
Zoning Setbacks This area is zoned for Planned Development allowing creation of setbacks that are
more lenient than those in the residential zones in respect to rear setbacks and floor area ratios. The
intent of the PD zone is to provide diversification in the location of structures and in land uses that is
compatible with the General Plan and with existing and future development in the surrounding area.
Although this proposal would be much larger and taller than adjacent dwellings, the majority of the
homes are being built within the property development standards of the R -l; Single - Family
Residential zone, as indicated in the table below:

Architecture - Visual and architectural elements have been incorporated into the design of the
dwelling such as bay and arched windows, tall entrance facade, and street - facing balconies. The
architecture is consistent with custom homes being constricted elsewhere throughout the
community. The following styles comprise the exteriors for the proposed homes:

Landscaping - Each residence, especially the comer property adjacent to Mission Drive, will include
various types of landscape plants and trees. There will be new sod and one 15- gallon Capital'
Ornamental Pear tree within the front yard of each residence. The.plant area along the front facade
of each residence will include Mock Orange and Crimson Jewel Bougainvillea shrubs to name a few,
and Ivy Geranium ground cover. In addition, the sidewalks will include 3 -foot by 3 -foot tree wells
with Chinese Pistache trees.
Fencing - The perimeter of the subdivision area will have a 6 -foot high concrete block wall with 2-
inch -wide recessed spaces between blocks and 6 -inch high rib face blocks along the top of the wall,
creating a decorative design (Condition No. 28). A sample photo of these block walls will be
provided at the meeting..Along the side yards, each residence will have 6 -foot high Redwood panel
fencing with lattice tops and chamfered posts. Staff recommends that these fences be painted with a
solid stain color to match the adjacent residents due to concerns with wood discoloring when
affected by rain or automatic sprinklers.
Mail Boxes - The applicant is initially proposed to install stand -alone Victorian style mailboxes
along the front yard. However, staff finds that because its style is incompatible with the
contemporary Spanish and Mediterranean architecture of the proposed homes, it is recommended
that the applicant instead install the surface mounted versions of the mailboxes, either in white or
beige to match the exterior of the home.
Neighborhood Character - In comparison to surrounding residences, development on the subject site
would be significantly greater. Residences immediately surrounding the site on either side were
built in the late fifties and will most likely be replaced with larger homes in the future. Future new
homes will be constructed to maximize the lot areas and will range from 2,000 to 3,000 square feet
in size.
Although the surrounding area northwest of the subject site consists of homes in the R -1; Single
Family Residential Zone, the immediate area also includes commercial uses such as offices and a
retail establishment, and townhouse developments. Although, this project does not meet the
definition of "high density ", it could be considered "medium /low density ". The land use element in
the General Plan indicates that policies call for a strip of high - density residential housing along
TTM 53377
PD 00 -0/
Page 4 of 12
Mission Boulevard extending from an area just west of Muscatel Avenue to Rosemead Boulevard.
Such high- density areas serve as buffers between the arterial roads and the single - family
neighborhoods located northwest of Rosemead Boulevard and Mission Drive.
While the size of the structure should not be the sole means of determining whether or not a
residence will adversely affect the character of a neighborhood or be architecturally consistent or
compatible with its surroundings, it provides a benchmark in evaluating a project's impacts on its
surroundings. 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 further back than the first, the roofing 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.

Planning Area l:. Land Use Policy
Low density residential uses predominate in this planning area.
The element's land use policies call for a strip of high density
residential housing along Mission Boulevard extending from an area
just west of Muscatel Avenue to Rosemead Boulevard. Mixed -use
residential /commercial development is designated for the east side
of Rosemead Boulevard to the Rosemead /Mission Boulevard
intersection. These areas of high density serve as buffers
between the boulevards and the single - family neighborhoods located
northwest of the intersection. The proposed uses generally
correspond to the existing residential uses and densities in this
planning area.
Commercial activities in this planning area are limited to an area
adjacent to Rosemead Boulevard and Lower Azusa Boulevard. The
central location of this area should encourage the development of
local commercial uses. Rosemead High School, situated between
Rosemead, Lower Azusa, and Mission Boulevards, and Encinta Avenue
separate the commercial and the mixed -use residential /commercial
areas from the low density neighborhoods located to the east.
The mixed -use designation is discussed in greater detail in
Section 2.3 of this Element.
Office and light industrial uses are located in three
non- contiguous areas. The largest area is located in the extreme
northwestern corner of the planning area and includes an area
north of Grand Avenue to the City's northern boundary. A second
industrial area is located at the opposite end of the planning
area north of Valley Boulevard and adjacent to Temple City
Boulevard. Finally, a third small area is located east of Encinta
Avenue along Lower Azusa. The land use policies will preserve the
existing industrial development in the planning area _110ugfa will
restrict any further expansion of those uses are restricted.

WHEREAS, Bill Lau, 220 South First Street #101, Alhambra, CA 91801 submitted
applications for a tentative tract map and planned development for the development of a 12 -lot
single - family residential development,located at 8723 -8729 Mission Drive; and

WHEREAS, on December 17, 2001, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed and
advertised public hearing to receive oral and written testimony relative to "fentalive Tract Map 53377
and Planned Development 00 -01; and
WIIEREAS, the Rosemead Planning Commission has sufficiently considered all testimony
presented to them in order to make the following determination.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
Rosemead as follows:
SECTION 1 . The Planning Commission HEREBY DETERMINES that Tentative Tract
Map 53377 and Planned Development 00 -01 are limited to projects that consist ofinfill development
projects of less than 5 acres in size that will not have a significant effect on traffic, noise, or air
quality. Such projects are listed as a Class 32 Categorical Exemption under Section 15332 of the
California Environmental Quality Act and local environmental guidelines. Therefore, this project is
exempt from environmental review.
SECTION 2 . The Plamring Commission HEREBY FINDS AND DETERMINES that facts
do exist tojustify recommending approval of Tentative "tract Map 53377 and Planned Development
00 -01 according to the Criteria of Chapter 17.116.010 of the Rosemead Municipal Code as follows:
A. That the proceedings to alter the development plan for this Planned Development Zoned
properly is justified in that it is in the public's necessity, convenience, general welfare or good
zoning practices for such action.
FINDING: The subject site consists of two sites, one which falls within the General Plan
land use designation of low density and the second that is.placed in the high density land use
category. The land use element in the General Plan indicates that the policies call for a strip of high-
density residential housing along Mission Drive extending from an area just west ol' Muscatel
g70cN. 3
Avenue to Rosemead Boulevard. Such high- density areas serve as buffers between the arterial roads
and the single- family neighborhoods located northwest of Rosemead Boulevard and Mission Drive.
Due to the split designations, the project would work well as either a low or high density project.
Although the current design (7.2 units per acre) is not considered "high density ", the lots have been
designed with an average lot size (5,076 so smaller than allowed in the low density areas of the City
(6,000 sf min.).
13. A planned development zone may be established to provide diversification in the location
of structures and other land uses while insuring compliance with the General Plan and compatibility
with existing and Future developments in surrounding areas.
FINDING: The project is in compliance with the general plan in that one half of the site is
designated as "low density residential' and the developer is proposing a "low density" design with
setbacks that are similar to those for R -1 single family residential development standards.
Surrounding areas to the north and west of the site are either developed with low density single
family homes or are planned to be developed as low density housing in the near future.
SECTION 3 . The Planning Commission HEREBY RECOMMENDS APPROVAL of
Tentative Tract Map 53377 and Planned Development 00 -01, fora 12 -lot single- lamily residential
development, subject to conditions listed in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference.

NO:

Mr. Tripepi responded that they will have to comply with the City's FAR ordinance.
Maly Redd slated that more garage area will be needed as too many cars will be parked
on the street.

hearing.
Councilman Taylor requested that the tract map be displayed for those in the audience.
Mr. Taylor stated that in a few of the houses the front yard setback is only 3' to 4', with 5' to 8'
back yard setbacks.
Mayor Pro Tern 13 uesch stated that he is concerned with the back yard setbacks of lots
#7, #9, and #10. Mr. I3ruesch explained that those lots only have a 5' setback.
Councilman Taylor stated that that is his basic objection also. Mr. 'Taylor continued that
the garages that face the street are only 16' frmn the front of the garage to the property line and
that cars can barely fit in that space. Mr. Taylor stated that his biggest contention is that these
lots are in comparison to art R -'I residence, which requires 6,000 square feet. However, the lots
in this project have been cut down to an average of 4,000 square feet. Mr. Taylor slated that
these homes are probably in the $400,000 price range and he objects to the homes at lire end of
the project mainly because of the small side and front yard setbacks.
Councilman Vasquez stated that upon listening to Councilman Taylor, he recommends
that the Council move to deny this project.
