CONSIDERATION OF POSSIBLE CONTROLS ON MULTIPLE FAMILY DEVELOPMENT - Review of various alternatives available to control the pace, volume and quality of multiple family developments in the City. Staff report by Otto Kroutil, Senior Planner. (0203-05 DEVELOP CODE) Mayor Mikels opened the meeting for public input. Addressing Council were: Herb Gomez expressed that he felt the cost of homes in Terra Vista was quite high considering the amount of land that you would be getting. He would like to see more land with the homes. Wayne Brown, Victoria resident, expressed support for increasing the total square footage of single family homes to 1200 square feet. He stated that they were having problems with CC&R violations within Victoria. He felt that by increasing the size of the house, and hopefully the price of the house, would help resolve some of the problems. Doug Reideman, Victoria resident, expressed concern about problems such as dealing of drugs, number of v foistions of City Codes and CC&Rs, tractor trailers and semi trailers in driveways, cars which are not operable in the driveways, life-threatening situations all in the Park development where the homes are small. None of these things have happened in the Country or the Gardens. He felt that if there are to be small homes, then he suggested that the CC&Rs be enforced. Horace Phy, Victoria resident, expressed that if the square footage of the house were increased, it would go a long way in improving and maintaining property values and deterring the factors which are occuring in the Victoria community. Kay Matlock, Lewis Homes, expressed that apartments were needed in the com- munity. Cecelia Xanders, Victoria resident, expressed concern about the conditions in Victoria. Debbie Brown, Victoria resident, stated they were hoping that the size would be increased, the price would go up, and the quality would increase. If the people have a higher stake in the property, then they will take bet- ter care of it. They were asking Council for higher standards. Jack Corrigan, Daon Corporation, suggested that the people contact the tle company and find out who the lender is and notify them. Sometimes vcu can get enforcement from the lender. Ralph Lewis urged Council not to make standards so high that people can't live in the City. Mr. Heideman stated that the CC&Rs needed to be enforced, and felt that the 1200 square foot should be enforced for single family. (27) City Council Minutes August 21, 1985 Page 8 James Frost, Etiwanda resident, expressed that when the General Plan was set up, it was hoped that the system would float to its own level. They recognized that multi-family would have an increase in the market over a short period of time, but also acknowledged that it would peak out. The Specific Plans would limit the number of dwell ings. Lan Bentsen, Lan Bentsen Interest, developers of the Glen Haven Project at Lemon and Haven, stated that less than one out of five new housing units over the past seven years have been multi-family; the national average is closer to 40 percent. He encouraged Council not to over react to a short-term fluxnation in numbers and restrict themselves iu the ability to meet the market demands. Jack Sylvester stated that industrial developers want the labor support in the area before they will build in an area. He encouraged Council not to stifle what took so many years to develop. Steven Ford, William Lyon Co., stated that they were concerned about the long-term quality of life in Victoria. They do not feel that addressing minimum size dwelling units addresses the issue, but that the City's Gener- al Plan provides for a cross section of affordable housing. The best way for quality control is through the City's existing review and approval pro- Ce88. Jim Barton expressed that you are dealing with economic growth and how to handle it. He felt that you cannot legislate "class". What controls what happens in an area is market trends. In Rancho Cucamonga we have actively pursued a higher quality of life possible in every project. Markets con- trol the number of apartments and the absorption. Right now apartments are the trend. Size of a home does not legislate quality of life. John Mannerino felt Council should maintain the status quo. Jeff Sceranka urged Council not to abandon the General Plan. There being no further public response, Mayor Mikels closed the public hearing. Mayor Mikels called a recess at 10:55 p.m. p.m. with all members of the Council present. The meeting reconvened at 11:10 Councilman King felt we were in a market stage in the multi-family development, and responded to the issues as follows: a. Multi-family construction bonds: he had no problems in helping a developer get financing in order that we might have quality developments in the affordable range. b. Controls on the rate of growth/growth management: not sure we can make the necessary findings to bring that type of alternative to fruition. c. Controls on development through upgraded design: he did not see there was a great flood of the smaller units into the market and the best way of addressing the concerns expressed by the Victoria residents is through unit size. d. Reduction of density: did not feel it was appropriate. Councilman Dahl stated: a. Multi-family construction bonds: he would like to see Council take a look at projects and make sure on the multi-family bonding that we be very selective in the future. He would like to see the multi-family complexes stopped for awhile and not induce any more multi-family bonds. However, City Council Minutes August 21 , 1 985 Page 9 when it comes to the mortgage revenue bonds and the senior bonds, he felt we should do everything possible to induce these. b. Controls on the rate of growth/growth management: did not feel there was any way this could be done in a feasible ray. c. Controls on development through upgraded design: minimum size should be addressed. He felt this should be referred to the Planning Commission for a recommendation and bring back to the Council. He would like to see all apartments in the City constructed to condominium specifications. d. Reduction in density. felt this should be done on a site-by-site ba- sis. There should not be a reduction unless we see an impaction. Our Gen- eral Plan addresses the higher density units pretty well. He suggested that we look at the standards of development, and raise the standards for apartments. He felt that minimum sizes do equate to better quality. Councilwoman Wright stated as follows: a. Multi-family construction bonds: she was for the elimination of the incentives for multi-family bonds, but supported bond financing for senior citizens. b. Controls on the rate of growth/growth management: felt this was clear since the City Attorney advised against this. c. Controls on development through upgraded design: single family minimum unit size - was in favor of setting a minimum at 1100 square feet. Open space requirement - felt this was stringent enough. Building set backs - one story units along street frontage should be a part of our require- ments. Apartments should conform to condominium standards. Parking re- quirements - felt that we should be requiring covered parking in all areas. d. Reduction in density: felt the planned communities could not change because of the developer agreements, but there are other areas of high den- sity which she felt should be reduced according to the recommendations by the Advisory Commission. Councilman Buquet stated that he felt that Council should not become reactionary. Expectations should be realistic, but we have to deal with the basics with a logical, common sense to planning. We have developed the General Plan, and it is important that we follow through on a good, common sense plan with a logical approach for a balanced community for future years. Recommenda- tions have been made, but he felt Council should move on. He felt that Council does have a handle on the situation. Mayor MikeIs stated that he did not feel we needed any modifications to the land use element of the General Plan at this point. Problems may crop up, but we can look at them at that time. We have the highest development standards of any city in the County of San Bernardino and have a great Growth Management Plan. His position on multi-family bond financing has been clear. MOTION: Moved by King, seconded by Buquet that Council take no action and move forward on other business. Motion carried as follows: AYES: Buquet, Mikels, King NOES: Wright, Dahl 7.
