McDonald's Cor~x-ation TOTAL P. 02 ~ CITY OF RANCHO CUCAIvIONGA -- STAFF REPORT DATE: February 8, 1995 TO: Chairman and Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Brad Buller, City Planner BY: Steve Hayes, AICP, Associate Planner SUBJECT: ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 94-30 ~ - A request to demolish a bank building and construct a 2,210 square foot drive-thru restaurant with enclosed playland on 1.1 acres of land in the Office Professional District, located on the southeast comer of Base Line Road and Carnelian Street-APN: 207-031-27. PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Surrounding Land use and Zoning: North - Existing retail shopping center; Neighborhood Commercial South - Single Family Residential homes; Low Residential (2-4 dwelling units per acre) East - Existing office development; Office Professional West - Retail shopping center; Neighborhood Commercial B. General Plan Desic,nations: Project Site - Office North - Neighborhood Commercial South - Low Residential East - Office West - Neighborhood Commercial C. Site Characteristics: The site is currently developed with an abandoned drive-thru bank which will be demolished prior to construction of the proposed facility. Curb, gutter, and sidewalk exist along both street frontages. Vehicular access to the site exists on both streets. Both street frontages are currently bermed to screen the drive-thru area from street view. The site slopes from north to south unevenly, but averaging roughly 6 percent.

Parking Calculations: Number of Number of Type Square Parking Spaces Spaces of Use Footage Ratio Reauired Provided Restaurant (Fast Food) 2,210 1/75 29 Seating area within playland 750 1/75 10 Outdoor seating area 450 1/75 6 _ TOTAL 3,410 45 31 * · 31 spaces are provided on site. In addition, an abundance of available parking exists in close proximity to the site to the east and south. These spaces are part of The Exchange office complex, which was developed with parking beyond the minimum requirement. The adjacent property owner of The Exchange has agreed to allow McDonalds to share and use the necessary parking spaces to meet the minimum City Code parking requirements for a fast food restaurant. ANALYSIS: A. General: The applicant is proposing to develop a 2,210 square foot fast food drive-thru restaurant with an enclosed playland and an outdoor eating area on the south side of the building. Access to the site will be available from the two existing driveway approaches, one on each street frontage. These driveways will be widened to meet the current minimum City standard of 35 feet in the public fight-of-way. As noted earlier, the adjacent property owner has agreed to allow the applicant to share parking spaces south and east of the new McDonalds in order for McDonalds to meet the minimum parking requirements and a reciprocal parking agreement has been made a condition of approval. Additional berming and landscape screening are proposed in the streetscape area between the back of the sidewalks along the streets and the drive-thru lane to better conceal vehicles waiting in the drive-thru lane, per the interim design policies for drive-thru facilities. B. Desien Review Committee: On October 4, 1994, the Committee (Barker, Lumpp, Coleman) reviewed the project and recommended significant revisions to the architecture and site plan, as explained in the attached action agenda (Exhibit "I"). The Committee recommended that a Planning Commission workshop be held to discuss their concerns. On December 14, 1994, the Planning Commission held a workshop and provided direction to the applicant (see minutes in Exhibit "J"). On January 17, 1995, the Committee (Lumpp, McNiel, Coleman) reviewed the revised plans and recommended approval with conditions as contained in the attached action agenda (Exhibit "K") and also incorporated into the Resolution of Approval for the project. C. Technical Review Committee: On October 5, 1994, the Committee reviewed the project and determined that, with the recommended standard and special conditions of approval, the project is consistent with all applicable standards and ordinances. The Grading Committee conceptually approved the project at its meeting on October 4, 1994. PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 94-30 - MCDONALDS February 8, 1995 Page 3 D. Environmental Assessment: Part I of the Initial Study has been completed by the applicant. Staff has completed Part II, the Environmental Checklist, and has found that, with the recommended conditions of approval, of which some serve as mitigation measures, the project will not have a significant effect on the environment. If the Commission concurs with staffs findings, the issuance of a mitigated Negative Declaration would be in order. CORRESPONDENCE: This item has been advertised as a public hearing in the ~ ~ newspaper, the property has been posted, and notices were sent to the adjacent property owners within 300 feet of the site as well as an expanded notification area as specified by staff. ]~!.C~~: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Conditional Use Permit 94-30 through adoption of the attached Resolution of Approval with Conditions and issue a mitigated Negative Declaration.

Design Parameters: The site is located within the existing Exchange Business Complex, which contains a large two-story multiple tenant office/retail building and a bank building with drive-thru facility. The applicant proposes to remove this unoccupied bank building and build a McDonald's restaurant. Because Of new development, additional right-of-way will be required to be dedicated along Base Line Road and Carnelian Street. Curb, gutter, and sidewalk will be removed and relocated to the ultimate design location for both streets. In addition, the two existing driveway approaches serving the parcel will be widened to current City standards and a bus bay and bus shelter will be required along Base Line Road. The site currently is benned along the street frontages to screen the former drive-thru bank activities from view of the streets. Within the property, the site slopes from north to south unevenly, but averaging roughly 6 percent. 8~aff ~en~s: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion. Major Issues: The following broad design issues will be the focus of Coramittee discussion regarding this project: A. Site/Landscape/Grading Plan: 1. The drive-thru policies encourage the use of building orientation to screen the drive-thru lane. The proposed site plan is a typical McDonald's corporate design. To address the screening of the drive-thru lane, McDonald's proposes to cut (approximately 4 feet) into the existing grade which is already 4 feet below the perimeter streets. Also, a new 5-foot high retaining wall with open view fencing is proposed along the outside edge of the new drive-thru lane. In order to reduce grading yet adequately screen drive-thru activities, staff would recommend that a retaining/block wall of lesser height with pilasters be constructed and a dense evergreen landscape hedgerow be planted at the outside of the drive-thru lane. Both the Mobil Service station and Taco Bell Restaurant at the southeast corner of Milliken and Highland Avenues have used this concept to screen the pump islands and the drive-thru lanes from view. The Mobil Station received a City's design award for its overall development. 2. An Outdoor plaza area should be provided on-site. DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS CUP 94-30 - MCDONALD'S October 4, 1994 Page 2 Architecture: 1. The overall architectural concept should be more consistent with the architectural design of the main building within the Exchange Complex as follows: a. Tile roof elements should become a more integrated and significant part of the overall architectural design. b. The depth of the triangular paraphets should be increased or a modified paraphet or roof design proposed. c. The playland structure is proposed for the future. In the interim, the west elevation of the building will be exposed to view. This elevation is flat with no architectural variation. Therefore, this elevation Should be significantly upgraded by using elements such as variation of the building plane, roof tile elements (similar to what the Committee may request as an upgrade for the entire building), etc. d. The wood lattice elements should be upgraded in structural integrity, including ground-mounted posts for structural support. e. The number of exterior lights should be significantly reduced. Secondary Issues: Once all of the major issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues: 1. The linear planter between the east leg of the drive-thru lane and the adjacent parking spaces should be widened to a minimum inside dimension of 5 feet to accommodate trees for shading purposes. Consequently, the parking spaces can be reduced in depth to 18 feet. 2- Special paving should be introduced at the new driveway entrances and at key pedestrian crossings throughout the project. 3. Densely planted landscape shrub hedgerows, significant berming, low walls, or any combination thereof should be provided to screen parking spaces from view of perimeter public streets. 4. Stepping stones should be provided in the planter area between the north/south oriented parking spaces for easier pedestrian access and to avoid deterioration of landscaping in the planter. 5. A bus shelter should be provided at the Base Line Road bus stop- Policy Issues: The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be incorporated into the project design without discussion: 1. Landscaping should be provided to screen the existing utility vault from public view. DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS CUP 94-30 - MCDONALD'S October 4, 1994 Page 3 2. The landscape palette should be consistent with that currently used within the Exchange Complex. 3. Retaining and block walls should consist of a decorative material or exterior finish. 4. Interim landscaping should be provided in the area proposed for the future playland, to the satisfaction of the City Planner. 5. The trash enclosure and freezer storage area should be designed with materials and architectural elements consistent with that used in the Exchange Complex, including lattice trellis covers, chain link webbing to prevent blowing of trash, a pedestrian door, and a roll-up door on the front Of the enclosure. 6. Any new light standards should be consistent in design with existing lighting in the Exchange Complex. S~aff ~eccemendatiom: Staff recommends that the Committee consider the proposal in conjunction with the comments raised by staff in this report. Staff recommends that the applicant revise the plans after receiving direction from the Committee and return beck for further Committee consideration upon revising the plan package. Design Review r~w~-~ttee A~ien: Members Present: Dave Barker, Heinz Lumpp, Dan Coleman Staff Planner: Steve Hayes The Design Review Committee did not recommend approval of the project. They recommended that the applicant submit a number of possible architectural concepts for a pre-application review with the full Planning Commission. In addition, the Committee forwarded additional con~nents, related to site planning, as follows: 1. The proposed retaining wall on the north side of the drive-thru lane should be reduced in height and an alternate screening concept used, including elements such as, but not limited to, lower terraced retaining walls with pilasters, as landscaped planters, hedgerows, and undulating harming. In addition, the lighting in the drive-thru lane area should be carefully selected for security purposes. 2. An outdoor eating area should be provided within easy view of the main store, but located as to not interfere with access to the building. 3. The design of parking spaces that hack onto the main drive aisle east of the building should be modified if possible. 4. The words "priory" and "secondary" should be deleted from the loading zone areas. 5. All applicable secondary and policy design issues should be addressed in the revised plan or become conditions of approval for the project. DRAFT CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES Adjourned Meeting December 14, 1994 Chairman Barker called the Adjourned Meeting of the City of Rancho cucamonga Planning Commission to order at 8:35 p.m. The meeting was held in the Rains Room at Rancho Cucamonga Civic Center, 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, California. COMMISSIONERS: PRESENT: David Barker, Heinz Lumpp, Larry McNiel ABSENT: John Melcher, Peter Tolstoy STAFF PRESENT: Brad Buller, City Planner; Laura Bonaccoursi, Landscape Designer; Dan Coleman, Principal Planner; Nancy Fong, Senior Planner; Steve Hayes, Associate Planner; Dan James, Senior civil Engineer A. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 94-30 - MCDONALD'S - A request to demolish an existing bank building and construct a 2,210 square foot drive-thru restaurant and enclosed playland on 1.'1 acres of land in the Office Professional District located at the southeast corner of Base Line Road and Carnelian Street - APN: 207-031-27. Brad Buller, City Planner, introduced the iten and briefly summarized the purpose of the workshop. ROd Lucio, McDonalds COrporation, unveiled the photographic images prepared for the meeting. Mr. Lucio highlighted the positive and negative aspects of each of the possible site plan layouts and how the proposed site plan best meets their needs as well as being the preferred site plan of the adjacent property owner. Robert Tittle, Robert Tittle Associates, described the ideas behind the two different architectural schemes prepared for the workshop. He mentioned how the playland may be incorporated into the ultimate design and how the roof equipment would be placed On this small building. chairman Barker noted his concerns regarding the portion of overhanging mansard roof on the east elevations and the security of vehicle passengers created by the orientation of the drive-thru lane, the grade difference between Base Line Road and the site, and the .narrow width of the drive-thru lane. He felt the occupants of cars in the drive-thru lane would be "trapped" in an unsafe or emergency situation. Mr. Lucio explained how a wider drive-thru lane with "escape" width had been utilized by McDonalds in some situations. He felt a wider lane could be used on this site. DRAFT Mr. Tittle added that additional vision glass windows are proposed so that enployees of the facility will be able to see a majority of the drive-thru area from inside the building. Chairman Barker reiterated that his concern is one of security, not aesthetics. Commissioner McNiel commented that aesthetics are important on such a critical corner in the City. Commissioner Lumpp expressed his preference for the architectural concept that utilizes the portico elements, with refinements. He thought the columns and roof overhangs should be more substantial in their appearance. Me felt the other concept was not acceptable, especially the north elevation. He noted that he felt the drive-thru situation was acceptable as proposed. Commissioner McNiel agreed with Commissioner Lumpp as to the preferred architectural option. He thought the facades should be increased in depth to avoid looking artificial. He generally felt that the site plan was acceptable as proposed. Me expressed his concern with how the playland would be integrated into the building design. Chairman Barker asked when and if a playland will be constructed. Mr. Lucio stated that the indoor playland would be built with the initial phase of development. Mr. Buller pointed out the importance of the east elevation and suggested that the back of the facade elements should be treated the same as the front sides. Me noted that in previous meetings with the applicant, the representatives Of the Exchange Complex, and staff, the applicant agreed to the possibility of repainting the existing buildings in the Exchange to match McDonalds. Mr. ~Tittle asked the Commissioners if they preferred tile or slate as the wainscot material. Chairman Barker and Commissioner McNiel preferred the slate material. Mr. Buller suggested a pedestrian walkway from the Base Line Road sidewalk to the main entrance so pedestrians would not walk in the drive aisle or on the landscaping. The Commissioners felt the pedestrian walkway would be a good idea. PC Adjourned Minutes 2 December 14, 1994 A[ :, 'L7'-;2,-" DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 5:00 p.m. Steve Hayes January 17, 1995 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 94-30 - MCDONALDS - A request to demolish an existing bank building and construct a 2,210 square foot drive-thru restaurant with enclosed playland on 1.1 acres offand in the Office Professional District, located on the southeast comer of Base Line Road and Carnelian Street - APN: 207-031-27. Back~ound: On October 4, 1994, the Committee (Barker, Lumpp, Coleman) reviewed the plans and recommended modifications as referenced in the attached Design Review Committee action comments. The Planning Commission conducted a workshop on December 14, 1994 and directed the applicant to pursue one of the two possible architectural concepts and revise the site plan for further Design Review Committee review. The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion. Ma_i. or Issues: The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion regarding this project: A. Site/Landscape Plan: 1. A tuff-block area has been added to increase the width of the drive-thru lane to address security concerns raised by members of the Commission at the December 14, 1994 workshop. Staff feels that this is an acceptable solution for the safety of vehicle occupants waiting in the drive-thru lane. 2. No information was provided about the proposed outdoor seating area. The seating area should be separated from the main entrance to provide a more pleasing eating atmosphere, as previously recommended by the Committee. (This can be conditioned for City Planner review.) 3. A pedestrian connection from the Base Line Road sidewalk to the main entrance, separate from the vehicular drive aisle, has been incorporated into the site plan, per the request of the Planning Commission. As proposed, the incorporation of the walkway reduces the depth of three parking spaces to 15 feet. Staff recommends that the parking spaces be 17 feet and labeled as "compact" by shit~ing walkway 2' west to abut the drive-thru lane for a short distance. (This can be conditioned for City Planner review.) B. Architecture: The applicant has upgraded the architectural concept recommended to be pursued by the Planning Commission at the December 14th workshop. In addition, the applicant has submitted building elevations for the interim situation (without playland) and the ultimate situation (with playland) as recommended by the Commission. However, staff recommends the following revisions to further upgrade the elevations: 1. The tower should be increased in height as the most dominant element on the building and to provide better proportions. This could be accomplished by raising the cave line 12-24 inches as shown in the attached examples. DRC COMMENTS CUP 94-30 - MCDONALDS January 17,, 1995 Page 2 ~.~:EIa!ZI~: Once all the major issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues: 1. Support columns, similar in design to those proposed for the overhead trellis structures, should be used on the tile roof overhang element on the east elevation. This would necessitate extending the roof element out further by 3-4 feet for the posts to clear the cars. 2. The layered fascia on the parapet should be used consistently throughout, such as on the tower and the tile roof elements. 3. All other secondary issues from the October 4, 1994 Design Review Committee comments (attached) should be incorporated into the plans. 4. The wall signs should be reduced about 80 percent to fit into the spaces intended. The capitals are proposed at 4" in height and lowercase letters are up to 2'3" in height. Traditionally, the Commission has recommended a maximum 24 inch letter height for pad buildings fronting a major street. P_o. li~sl~: The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be incorporated into the project design without discussion: 1. All items from the October 4, 1994 Design Review Committee comments should be addressed. Staff Reeommendation: Staff recommends that the Design Revigw Committee recommend approval of the project to the Planning Commission with conditions of approval as deemed appropriate by the Committee. I)esi~n Review Committee Action: Members Present: Larry McNiel, Heinz Lumpp, Dan Coleman Staff Planner: Steve Hayes The Committee recommended approval of the project subject to the following conditions: 1. The tower on the northwest comer of the building, over the enclosed playland, should be raised 12 inches to be in better proportion with other architectural elements on the building. 2. Decorative tiles, similar to those used on the base of the building, should be provided in the areas previously specified as having painted recesses. 3. The outdoor seating area should be dispersed more randomly and alternate types and shapes of tables used, to the satisfaction of the City Planner. 4. The outdoor seating area should include a focal point, such as a sculpture, to provide additional interest in this area. 5. All other unaddressed secondary and policy design issues will be incorporated into a Resolution of Approval for the project, subject to review and approval of the Planning Commission. RESOLUTION NO. A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 94-30, A REQUEST TO DEMOLISH AN EXISTING BANK BUILDING AND CONSTRUCT A 2,210 SQUARE FOOT DRIVE-THRU RESTAURANT WITH ENCLOSED PLAYLAND ON 1.1 ACRES OF LAND IN THE OFFICE PROFESSIONAL DISTRICT, LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF BASE LINE ROAD AND CARNELIAN STREET, AND MAKING FINDINGS IN SUPPORT THEREOF - APN: 207-031-27. 1.
