Draft
The Committee received comments from the one resident in attendance who raised issues related to the use
of the optional development standards. The resident stated that they were opposed to the use of the optional
standards as it would eliminate the possibility of keeping horses and that the Etiwanda Community Plan
required a 20-foot wide greenway for all project using the optional standards. The Committee was generally
in support of the project and only raised the following issues related to the proposed private equestrian trails:
• That the step-through gates at each end of the trail should have a minimum of 36 inches between
the wood bollards for easier equestrian access.
• That a condition of approval should be included with the project approval that states that the
proposed equestrian trail cannot be blocked for any purpose.
Staff stated that they would investigate whether there would be any negative ramifications from widening the
distance between the bollards and that they would add the required condition of approval. The applicant
stated that they would increase the dimension of the trail easement to be 20 feet wide (including a landscape
area adjacent to the equestrian trail) to comply with the greenway standard.
The Trails Advisory Committee recommended that the project be forwarded to the Planning Commission for
approval.
D2. TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18012-1 (LOCATED AT 12774 BANYAN STREET) — EGL
ASSOCIATES, INC. - A request to subdivide a vacant 6.96-acre parcel into 9 residential lots for
the future single-family development within the Estate Residential (ER) District of the Etiwanda
Specific Plan, Equestrian Overlay located at 12774 Banyan Street; APN 0225-111-07. Related
Files: Specific Plan Amendment DRC2016-00730 and Tree Removal Permit DRC2018-00898. A
Mitigated Negative Declaration of environmental impacts is being prepared for consideration.
Vincent Acuna, Associate Planner, presented Committee with an oral presentation (copy on file).
Trails Committee Member Brennan approved of the trails design but suggested that the entrance to the
feeder trail on the southwest corner of the project be converted from a curb to a ramp to allow easier vehicle
access. She also suggested to make the step-throughs at the feeder trail entrance at least 36-inches wide
for easier access. Additionally, she also suggested that City staff explore the possibility of connecting the
feeder trail that loops around the project perimeter to Amber Lane.
Principal Planner Smith explained that Amber Lane is a private street, but that staff will explore the possibility
of connecting the project's feeder trail to Amber Lane with the Engineering Department.
The Trails Advisory Committee recommended that the project be forwarded to the Planning Commission for
approval, provided that Trails Committee Member Brennan's suggestions (above) be explored by the
Planning Department for implementation.
Associate Planner Acuna noted the recommendation and told the Trails Advisory Committee that the
Planning Department will explore the feasibility of these three suggestions and coordinate with the
Engineering Department.
E. Identification of Items for the Next Meeting

LOCATED IN THE 13300 BLOCK OF BANYAN STREET AT THE SOUTHEAST
CORNER OF BANYAN STREET AND EAST AVENUE— HECTOR MORENO—A request
for a Minor Design Review to construct a 2,641 square-foot single-family residence with
an attached 751.75 square foot 3-car garage in the Very Low Residential (VL) District
and the Equestrian Overlay District within the Etiwanda Specific Plan,— APN 0225-191-
32. DRC2020-00438.
Site Characteristics: The undeveloped project site is located on the southeast corner of
Banyan Street and East Avenue. The site is approximately 20,226 square feet with
dimensions of approximately 171 feet along the north to south property lines and
approximately 143 feet from east to west property lines. Street improvements, including
curb, gutter, a Community Trail, and a sidewalk will be constructed along Banyan St. as
part of this project.
The existing Land Use, General Plan and Zoning designations for the project site and
adjacent properties are as follows:

North Single-Family Residence / Very Low Very Low (VL) Residential

*Etiwanda Specific Plan &Equestrian Overlay District
Project Overview: The applicant proposes to construct a 2,641 square foot single-family
residence with an attached 751.75 square foot 3-car garage, a 352 square foot front
porch, and a 630 square foot patio cover on a vacant property in the Very Low
Residential (VL) District, Equestrian Overlay District and within the Etiwanda Specific
Plan, located at the southeast corner of Banyan Street and East Avenue.
The proposed single-family home will feature a Craftsman influenced architectural style.
The materials used on the home include white smooth stucco, decorative stone veneer,
decorative guard rails, slate roofing, gabled wood siding, and trim molding around the
windows. A circular driveway with decorative pavers is being proposed and will be
accessed through Banyan Street.
The General Plan states that new development within the Equestrian Overlay District are
required to provide community and local trails for equestrian use. Similarly, Section
5.33.301 of the Etiwanda Specific Plan states:
TAC COMMENTS
DRC2020-00438—AEC MORENO
June 9, 2021

Feeder Trails: Feeder trails for equestrian use shall be required as a condition of
project approval in the EQ/OL District. Such trails shall be located within
easements and shall be designed to provide access to each lot or site intended for
equestrian use.
The project site is largely surrounded on the south and east by underdeveloped
property. While the applicant could construct the required trail segment, it currently
wouldn't lead to anywhere. Considering these circumstances, and in order to avoid a trail
segment would be of no practical use, and possibly neglected over time, staff proposes
to allow the applicant to record, i.e. establish, an easement for trail purposes (only) as a
condition of approval. This would be in lieu of constructing the trail segment and
associated improvements such vehicle gates and horse step throughs. This easement
will be permanent and will ensure that when the surrounding properties develop, and trail
segments are constructed on those properties, then the option would be available for the
trail network to be completed.
The proposed easement will have the minimum dimensions necessary to comply with
the City's technical and design standards for trails. Staff notes that the subject property
is configured such that the trail could be located either running north to south along the
east property line of the subject lot, or east to west along the southern property line.
Allowing the applicant to install an easement now is a logical solution to addressing the
potential for there to be a dead-end trail that wouldn't be used. Requiring the applicant to
establish an easement now would allow the trail network to be completed altogether at a
later date. The easement would prevent any new permanent construction that required a
building permit to occur over it thereby maintaining the area for the trail until such time
that the improvements will be installed.
Major/Secondary Issues: None
(Recommend Approval of the alternative solution proposed by staff which involves
the establishment of an easement with trail improvements deferred to a later date; or
❑Recommend denial of staff's alternative solution and recommend that the applicant
construct the trail improvements now; or
❑Recommend approval with modifications to the local feeder trail by incorporating
revisions requested by the Committee. Follow-up review by the Committee is not
required. The revisions shall be verified by staff prior to review and action by the
Planning Director/ Planning Commission; or
❑Recommend conditional approval of the local feeder trail by incorporating revisions
requested by the Committee. Follow-up review by the Committee is not required. The
revisions shall be Conditions of Approval and verified by staff during plan check after
review and action by the Planning Director/ Planning Commission; or
