Related file: Development Review DRC2012-00182. Design Parameters: The applicant is proposing to construct a 6,000 square, foot 2-story concrete tilt-up office building in conjunction with a heavy equipment (diesel truck) sales lot. The area of the two parcels is 2.75 acres of land. The site is located at the southwest corner of Arrow Route and Pecan Avenue. The building will be located near the southeast corner of the site with a stamped concrete entrance to the site taking access off Pecan Avenue. The concrete tilt-up building will have a sand blasted concrete wainscot with the same texture around the middle third of the building. The pop-outs on each side of the building vary in height from 1 to 2 feet over the main portion of the building to provide visual interest and will be painted with Dunn Edwards "Crestline," and the sides and rear of the top third of the building will be painted with Dunn Edwards "Pigeon Grey" along with a portion of the front top third. The 2-inch reveals around the top of the building and a band between the first story windows with two panels on each side of the pop-out on the front of the building will be painted with Dunn Edwards "Crisp Muslin." The windows will be inset with dark bronze anodized aluminum frames and grey glass. A steel channel overhead canopy will be located above the front entrance to give patrons an inviting feature distinguishing the front and rear entrance. A sales display area will be located on-site at the northeast corner of the site on the corner of Pecan Avenue and Arrow Route. The parking spaces and most of the area in the customer parking area will be paved with pervious pavers. An 8-foot tall wrought iron fence with pilasters spaced approximately 30 feet apart will be constructed along the east, west, and north sides of the parking and display area for the trucks. Landscape will be planted around the perimeter of the property. The applicant is requesting to phase in the project. The majority of the project will be constructed in Phase 1 such as most on-site improvements and the street improvements on Pecan Avenue. In Phase 1, the applicant is requesting to install the street improvements on Arrow Route, and in Phase 3 construct the office building. A time line has not been established, but all phases should be completed within 4 years.

Design Parameters: The applicant is proposing to subdivide two vacant parcels of land totaling 40.12 acres into 53 single-family lots. The two rectangular-shaped parcels are located at the northwest corner of Wardman Bullock Road and Wilson Avenue in the Very Low Residential District of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. The site has the flood control basin to the west and single-family residences to the south, east, and partially built single-family homes to the north. The site generally slopes from north to south. The proposed subdivision consists of 51 numbered lots to be utilized for future housing product as the applicant is not proposing housing product at this time and two lettered lots to be utilized as basins for water quality purposes. The lots in the tract will average approximately 25,000 square feet. The lot sizes range from 20,000 square feet to approximately 40,000 square feet. These parcels will be equestrian lots and will allocate pads at the rear of the yards for either a 24-foot by 24-foot or a 12-foot by 48-foot corral space. The lots meet the required average width of 90 feet with a minimum depth of 150 feet. Access into the housing tract will be accomplished at two points. One point will be off Wardman Bullock Road and the other will be off of Wilson Avenue. Both points will include Etiwanda Highlands themed neighborhood entry portals and community walls as Etiwanda Highlands. The portals at the entry points and the neighborhood monument sign that is located at the northwest corner of Wilson Avenue and Wardman Bullock Road will be wrapped in a brick veneer. The community wall along the perimeter of the site along Wardman Bullock Road and Wilson Avenue will consist of a stuccoed covered block wall with pilasters wrapped in brick veneer spaced every 40 to 60 feet. Both the wall and pilasters will contain concrete caps. These equestrian lots have 15-foot wide local trails that run behind them, but the trails along the west and north tract boundary are proposed to be 21 feet wide for trail and emergency access. The west and north side of the trail will have three rail PVC trail fencing, and the rear yards throughout the tract will have 6-foot high block walls. Trails along Wilson Avenue and Wardman Bullock Road will be 15 feet wide with a three rail PVC trail fence along the street sides of the trail. A proposed community to the north of the project will need to obtain access to this trail to allow riders and pedestrian access to the Community Trail on Wilson Avenue. Both parties have been in contact with each other, but no agreement has been made.
