DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 5:00 p.m. Scott Murphy August 15, 1995 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 95-18/MODIFICATION TO CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 90-37-PRICE COSTCO -A request to amend the original Master Plan to provide a 5,040 square foot building or a 2,800 square foot restaurant building on a one-acre parcel within an existing shopping center (Foothill Marketplace) in the Regional Related Commercial designation (Subarea 4) of the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan, located on the south side of Foothill Boulevard between I-15 and Etiwanda Avenue - APN: 229-031-35. Background: On August 1, 1995, the Design Review Committee reviewed the application and stated that no further review of the application should be conducted until the on-site traffic circulation issues are resolved. The Committee presented the applicant with a sketch depicting a four-way intersection for the westerly entry drive (see attached). While they did not require the design to match the sketch, the Committee recommended that a design comparable to the sketch should be evaluated by a traffic engineer to determine the level of congestion relief provided by the redesign. The Committee agreed that if the on- site traffic circulation was adequately addressed, a building would be considered at this location. The applicant should continue to work with staff on the architectural details of the buildings. The application should return to the Committee for additional review. Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion: In an effort to assist the applicant with processing of the project, staff has scheduled the application for additional Committee review prior to receipt of the revised plans. Staff is continuing to work with the property owner on the plans and will provide the plans to the Committee at the earliest possible opportunity. Staff will provide a verbal update to the Committee at the meeting. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Committee review the revised plans and, if acceptable, recommend approval of the application with the appropriate conditions of approval. Design Review Committee Action: Members Present: David Barker, Heinz Lumpp, Nancy Fong Staff Planner: Scott Murphy The Committee reviewed the revised plans provided by the applicant and recommended approval of the project subject to the following conditions: 1. The right turn only lane at the westerly intersection should be revised to discourage southbound traffic from using it as a short cut. The revision should consider, but are not limited to, the installation of a raised median in the entry drive, traffic control signage, and the drive angled to direct flows in a more northerly direction. 2. The cones should be removed from the front of the Price Club building to open up the secondary circulation drive across the front of the building. DRC COMMENTS DR 95-18/CUP 90-37 - PRICE COSTCO August 15, 1995 Page 2 3. The trash/delivery turn out should be reviewed by the traffic engineer to determine if modifications were necessary to easier access for trucks so as not to block through circulation or line-of-sight. 4. A service door should be provided on the east elevation instead of the south elevation so patrons of the building will not park in the turn out thinking they will have quick access into the building. 5. Some windows on the east elevation should be removed in anticipation of a building being located on the west side of the adjoining pad. This new building would block the proposed building and would result in the windows looking out onto the back of a building. The windows at the northern portion of the east elevation should be retained. 6. The tubular steel grill at the tower element should be revised from a vertical pattern to a sunburst pattern. 7. The landscape island in the middle of the parking area should be designed with a specimen tree surrounded by hardscape. The use of groundcover is discouraged because of anticipated foot and vehicular traffic through this area. The plans should be revised and submitted to the Planning Commission for review and approval.
