The proposal contemplates reducing the floor area of Building 5 by about 3,000 square feet and increasing the floor area of Building 1 B by about 3,000 square feet. Included are slight changes to the building elevations. The overall master-planned retail and office complex is comprised of two 2-story office buildings of 28,000 square feet (each), three single-story retail buildings of 17,500 square feet (combined), and three single-story restaurant pad buildings of 17,000 square feet (combined) on three parcels (combined area = 8.4 acres) in the Industrial Park District (Subarea 7), located at the southeast corner of Foothill Boulevard and Elm Avenue: APN: 0208-961-05, -06, -07.

The proposal contemplates reducing the floor area of Building 5 by about 3,000 square feet and increasing the floor area of Building 1B by about 3,000 square feet. Included are slight changes to the building elevations. The overall master-planned retail and office complex is comprised of two 2-story office buildings of 28,000 square feet (each), three single-story retail buildings of 17,500 square feet (combined), and three single-story restaurant pad buildings of 17,000 square feet (combined) on three parcels (combined area = 8.4 acres) in the Industrial Park District (Subarea 7), located at the southeast corner of Foothill Boulevard and Elm Avenue: APN: 0208-961-05, -06, -07. Background: This project was originally reviewed by the Design Review Committee on January 16, 2007. As revisions were requested, the Committee continued the item to February 6, 2007. At that follow-up meeting, the project was recommended for approval to the Planning Commission. The project, along with an associated tentative parcel map, was reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission on March 28, 2007. Since then, the applicant has met with staff several times to discuss changes to the project that staff indicated would require review and approval of the Committee. Analysis: The proposed changes are for Buildings 1 B and 5. The applicant proposes a reduction in the floor area of Building 5 by removing about 3,000 square feet from its east side, and to increase the floor area of Building 1 B by adding about 3,000 square feet to its east side. The overall floor area of all the buildings within this office/commercial complex will be unchanged as the revisions result in an "even" exchange. The corresponding parking requirement is unchanged and the only difference in the parking area would be having several of the parking stalls that were to be located immediately to the east of Building 1 B relocated to the parking area immediately to the east of Building 5 (Exhibit A). The revisions to the floor plans of both buildings result in minor revisions to their elevations. The changes will be most apparent on the north and south elevations of both buildings. Because of the increase in floor area for Building 1 B, the building will be extended eastward and two tower elements will be added at the southeast and northeast corners. All of the previously proposed architectural features such as the vertical screen panels, cornices, and horizontal trellises will be extended accordingly. Although the use of glazing on the south elevation has been expanded as well, it is limited to the tower elements on the north elevation facing Foothill Boulevard. This was considered acceptable previously as the towers were closer together and the absence of glass on the wall plane between them was not as apparent. However, as this wall plane has been lengthened, staff has indicated to the applicant's architect that additional storefront glazing on the north elevation will be required so that it is not dominated by bare plaster walls. There will be no change to the west elevation of Building 1 B and the only apparent change on the east elevation will be the addition of the tower element at the southeast corner (Exhibit B). As Building 5 is reduced in floor area, the exterior will manifest itself in the elimination of several sections between the end tower elements. There will be no change to the east or west elevations of Building 5 (Exhibit C). DRC ACTION AGENDA DRC2006-00438— MICHAEL CHAI February 19, 2008 Page 2 Stone veneer has been deleted on the color renderings (Exhibit D) from the northwest corner and the center tower element at the north elevation. Staff suspects that this is an error as the "black and white" elevation show the veneer correctly. Nevertheless, the application of stone veneer should be as previously approved by the Planning Commission. Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion. 1. Provide additional glass along the north elevation of Building 1 B. 2. Incorporate stone veneer at all locations as previously approved by the Planning Commission. 3. The revised parking areas shall be designed according to all applicable City standards including parking stall/aisle dimensions, striping, landscaping, and Fire Department access. 4. Relocated trash enclosures shall be placed as close as possible to the buildings. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval, with the above-noted correction, and forwarding to the Planning Director for review and action. Attachments Design Review Committee Action: Members Present: Munoz, Stewart, Nicholson Staff Planner: Mike Smith The Committee accepted the revisions as submitted by the applicant with the condition that he incorporates the changes discussed by staff, including the addition of more glazing and the consistent use of decorative veneer on the north elevation of Building 1 B facing Foothill Boulevard.
