ADJOURNMENT 1, Mary Lou Gragg, Office Specialist 11 for the City of Rancho Cucamonga, hereby certify that a true, accurate copy of the foregoing agenda was posted on November24, 1999,at least 72 hours prior to the meeting per Government Code Section 54954.2 at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga. C 1 DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 7:00 p.m. Brent Le Count November 30, 1999 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 99-52-WILLIAMS ARCHITECTS - A request to re-use an existing vacant single family home for a church and school in the Low Residential District (2 to 4 dwelling units per acre), located at 9244 19th Street - APN: 201-341-04. Related file: Conditional Use Permit 94-13 and Variance 96-03 (both expired), Variance 99-10 (current). Background: The project(including a Variance to reduce interior landscape setback from 10 feet to zero feet) was approved by the Planning Commission on June 12, 1996, and a one-year time extension was granted in 1998 to extend the expiration to June 1999. The applicant did not file a second time extension request so a new Conditional Use Permit and Variance must be processed. The current design is exactly the same as was previously approved. Design Parameters: The applicant intends to remodel an existing vacant single family home (former Wise Oak School) and provide on-site parking improvement to accommodate a church (100 seat chapel)and preschool/day care facility(classrooms for up to 23 children). Improvements include architectural enhancement of the exterior of the home to convey or more church-like appearance, provision of 30 parking spaces (27 required), and landscaping. Construction is intended to be phased with all grading, landscaping, paving, repainting of the home, new monument sign and replacement of doors and windows being completed prior to occupancy and architectural enhancements (tower and entry features) delayed to the first and second years of operation. This met with Planning Commission approval previously and allows the applicant to synchronize improvements with growth of the congregation and availability of funds. The applicant is requesting a Variance from the required'10-foot landscape setback along the east side of the property because of the narrowness of the lot. Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion: 1. Provide sidewalk connection from public sidewalk up to south building entrance. Use decorative pavement to match driveway entrance. May require elimination of one parking space. Relocate monument sign accordingly. 2. Provide planter between parking lot and playground retaining wall. 3. Change all proposed chain link fencing and gates to decorative metal, such as wrought iron. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Design Review Committee recommend approval of the project with conditions. Attachment: Design Review Committee Action: Members Present: Larry McNiel, Pam Stewart, Nancy Fong Staff Planner: Brent Le Count The Committee recommended approval subject to staff's comments. c rRIVATE, PI f1 LANE NAtIMERNtAD TURN LA Wn�l ZtW A7 ML Fi ef --- pw.TracT ATANOA9 TLn V 'Xia• ..!

Related files: Variance 99-09, Tree Removal Permit 99-26, Conditional Use Permit 85-37. Background: This item was reviewed by the Committee(Mannerino,Stewart and Fong)on October 5, 1999. The previous Design Review Comments and action have been attached for reference. At the October 5 meeting, the applicant was directed to work closely with staff to resolve the major and secondary issues presented.In addition,the Committee recommended the applicant to simplify the design of the building to achieve a better architectural consistency with the center. The applicant has worked with staff in achieving an overall design that provides a greater architecturally consistency with the Center. Staff Comments: As noted above, the applicant has worked with staff in achieving an overall design that provides a greater architecturally consistency with the Center. The applicant has added a standing seam metal roof tower element, common throughout the center, to the southwest and northeast corners of the building and eliminated the previously proposed parapet design. In addition, an arched entry element has been added to the front entrance of the building. The second story window design theme has been enhanced to include a 4-inch deep recessed arch over each window. The width of windows, along the rear of the building, have been expanded from 6-feet in length to about 11-feet, to enhance the rear building plane of the building. Staff believes that the applicant has made substantial improvement to the project. The following - design comments will further enhance the project: 1. Provide a 5-foot (inside dimension) landscape planter, along the rear of the building, to provide additional enhancement. 2. Eliminate proposed trash enclosure location,and relocate to an area away from public view. 3. Eliminate the rectangular recessed element,on the east elevation,just to the right of the two story arch window. Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends that the Committee approve project subject to the modifications as recommended above. Attachment Design Review Committee Action: Members Present: Larry McNiel, Pam Stewart, Nancy Fong Staff Planner: Rudy Zeledon The Committee recommended approval of the project with the exception that the applicant did not have to provide a 5-foot landscape planter along the rear of the building. However, the Committee recommended additional landscaping be provided on-site and that the applicant work with staff on relocating the proposed trash enclosure. • - ,�i � - ! b i � I I�II /:� ��, / •ri 1� � ��1 t I � O �1 Ll � 1 ` CL ,� � �' �;°�` . j :,;`�� „ •. - �� ^may ��1 ' -• .�' G.

The office portion of the buildings will front the public right-of-ways of Arrow Route, Milliken and Jersey Avenues. The loading areas are oriented to the interior of site behind screen walls and the office areas. Building wall surfaces facing the street corners feature a creative curvilinear design, and are articulated with changes of plane, color variation, and use of sandblasted concrete with blue- green colored glazing accents. The site is surrounded by industrial development to the east,south, and across Milliken Avenue to the west,and under construction industrial development to the north across Arrow Route. Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion. Maior Issues: The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion regarding this project: 1. Employee parking between Buildings "B" and "C," and Buildings "C" and "D" should be relocated elsewhere on the property or designed as to not create a potential conflict with the truck and parking areas. The Planning Commission's policy is to separate employee parking from truck parking. Secondary Issues: Once all of the major issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues: 1. Screen walls as seen from the public right-of-ways shall be no higher than 8 feet in height. 2. The screen gates should be automated to ensure that the gate is open the minimum time necessary to allow trucks in and out of the loading area. 3. All employee-eating areas should be designed as an integral part of the building and not located adjacent to access areas for truck and vehicular parking. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the project be revised and return to Design Review Committee as a consent calendar item. DRC COMMENTS 99-55 - TRAMMEL CROW AND CO. November 30, 1999 1.
