PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposal involves the design and construction of a 19,691 square foot industrial building on 1.02 acres located at 42600 Rio Nedo (north side of Rio Nedo, between Calle Empleado and Via Industria). The 25 foot-high structure includes 17,841 square feet on the first level and 1,850 square feet of office space in a second-level mezzanine. The project - which we have termed the GMC building - meets or exceeds all of the basic standards called for in the Development Code with the exception of the Floor Area Ratio (FAR). The target FAR for this zone is 0.40, whereas the proposed FAR is 0.44. The Planning Commission may grant an increase in FAR beyond the 0.40 target - up to a maximum FAR of 1.0 - based on a determination of the extent to which the project provides exceptional benefits or aspects consistent with three incentive categories outlined in the Development Code. This issue is discussed below under "FAR Incentives." BACKGROUND The application was submitted on April 2, 1999, and the Design Review Committee reviewed the plans on April 22, 1999. Several discussions were subsequently held on the applicant's original proposal to increase the lot coverage beyond the 40% maximum allowed by the Development Code. The applicant eventually decided to pursue additional floor area in the form of a request to increase the FAR beyond the 0.40 target by adding a second-level mezzanine office rather than the original proposal to have a larger building footprint (lot coverage). The application was consequently deemed complete on July 29, 1999. ANALYSIS Site Design The property measures 175.5 feet wide by 254 feet deep and sits below the adjoining property to the west and essentially at-grade with the properties to the north and east. The structure is situated on the southwesterly portion of the site, separated from the property lines by setbacks of 25 feet in the front, 15 feet and 40 feet respectively to the west and east sides, and 35 feet to the rear. Access is provided by a single entry drive off Rio Nedo and by a shared drive located at the northeast corner of the site. Single-loaded parking aisles are distributed along .the easterly and northerly property lines, to the side and rear of the building. R:\Griffins~128PA99.GMC Staff Report,doc 2 Other site plan components include an employee patio area at the front of the site, just to the west side of the main building entry. The patio, along with adjoining surfaces, wilt be paved with decorative colored concrete saw-cut into a pattern of 24"x24" squares and surrou0ded by a 30-inch high decorative garden wall. Loading is provided for at four locations, two on the easterly side of the building and two at the rear, including a truck well. Trash will be accommodated within a single enclosure at the rear of the property, directly abutting the nodhwesterly corner of the building. Architecture The 25 foot-high building is of standard tilt-up concrete construction consistent with the vast majority of other structures in the area. The southeasterly corner of the building is highlighted at the first level main entry area by a 5-foot deep recess extending back 25 feet on both sides from the corner and supported by two round, fluted columns. This corner of the building is further enhanced by glass and a 45°, 16 foot-wide "cut-off" at the first level, with additional glass at the second level extending to the top of the parapet. An additional, although perhaps less aesthetic major offset to the rectangular shape of the structure occurs at the 16 foot-wide by 39 foot-long truck well located at the northeast corner of the building. All four building walls are equally divided by five horizontal reveals, each measuring 2 inches wide by % inches deep. The reveals are interrupted at several points with vertical elements resembling columns which extend the full height of the building - one on the front elevation, three on the easterly side elevation, five on the westerly side elevation, and two on the rear elevation. These features measure four feet wide at their base and for most of their height, and then widen out in two one-foot steps to a total width of eight feet at top of the parapet. These column features are defined at their outer edge by v-grooves in the concrete, and to the interior by a two-foot wide vertical band of fluted concrete. Spandrel glass provides additional interest on two of the most visible surfaces of the building. The front elevation and the easterly parking lot elevation feature a total of six horizontal rows of glass divided into five sections each and which measure 17 feet-wide by 5-feet high. Four rows, two each on the first and second levels, are located on either side of the column feature on the front elevation, and two - one over the other - are located behind the front entry area on the easterly elevation facing the parking lot. We have included a condition of approval which would have these rows of spandrel glass aligned with the surrounding reveals. The basic color of the smooth concrete wall surfaces is the "white-white" color used on four of the horizontal "bands" defined by the reveals which encircle the structure. An "antique white" color is used as an accent on the remaining two bands - the second and fourth bands from the top. The smooth concrete outer surfaces of the vertical column elements are painted a "mariposa green" color, and the fluted concrete areas interior to the column elements are painted an "antique white" color to match the two horizontal accent bands on the building. The glass will be a "green/silver gray" color with supporting white anodized aluminum frames. Landscapin9 Landscape planting is provided along all of the property boundaries, including 25 feet in the front (plus six feet in the public right-of-way), 15 feet along the westerly boundary (which consists of a 2:1 up-slope), and seven feet (two feet wider than the minimum required by Code) along the northerly (rear) and easterly (parking lot) boundaries. These perimeter plantings are supplemented with minimum five-foot wide landscape planters at the ends and middle of each of the parking aisles and along the base of the easterly elevation of the building between the loading doors and extending to the front entry area. R:',Griffins\128PA99.GMC Staff Report.doc 3 All of the landscaped areas are planted with trees, shrubs and ground covers consistent with City standards and the comments from our Landscape Amhitect. Worthy of special note perhaps is the use of Queen Palms along the building fa~pade on the front and easterly (parking lot) elevations, and two Canary Island Palms at either side of the project entry drive. FAR Incentives The Planning Commission may consider three incentive categories in determining whether or not the proposed 10% increase in floor area ratio from 0.40 to 0.44 FAR is supportable. The incentive categories are described in Section 17.08.050 of the Development Code. They include: (1) uses which provide outstanding employment, fiscal, social and economic benefits, (2) projects which exhibit exceptional architectural and landscape design, and (3) projects which provide public facilities beyond the norm. In support of the request, the applicant relies on the second incentive category - architectural and landscape design - and cites the following: Enhanced architectural features, including multiple decorative reveals and special column features on all elevations, the unique scheme of colors represented by the white on white multi- color walls with contrasting vertical accents, and the extensive use of high performance reflective glass in and around the building entry and at additional locations o~ the most visible portions of the building. Enhanced landscape features, including two decorative Canary Island Palm trees at the property entrance, Queen Palms along the south and east building walls, expanded planting around the preperty's perimeter, the employee patio area with patterned paving and decorative 30" wall, the decorative walkway from the street to the building, and the decorative paving and landscaping around the employee patio and at the building entry. Staff believes a 10% increase is supportable in the present case. The primary basis for our judgment is the fact that we would have endorsed the project design as it was originally submitted if it had complied with the City's FAR standard. Since that time, the project has been enhanced with additional landscape planting and significantly more building articulation, including the column features and the spandrel glass elements. Traffic Analysis The Public Works Department has reviewed the proposed site plan and determined that the trips generated by this project will not exceed the trips anticipated by the Circulation Element for this site. The project's Floor Area Ratio (FAR) falls within the range of the average building intensity anticipated under the traffic analysis for the General Plan. The applicant will be required to pay traffic signal mitigation fees and development impact fees as conditions of approval for the project to address the impacts associated with the increased traffic on Rio Nedo and at the Rio Nedo and Diaz Road intersection. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION It is anticipated that a Notice of Exemption will be filed for Planning Application No. PA99-0116 per the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Section 15332. Section 15332 applies to in-fill development projects on sites that are: less than five (5) acres and substantially surrounded by urban uses; consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning; have no value as habitat for R:~Griffins\128PA99,GMC Staff Report,doc 4 endangered, rare or threatened species; and that can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services. The site meets all of the criteria for in-fill development, and therefore the project is eligible for a CEQA exemption pursuant to Section 15332 of the CEQA Guidelines. GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING CONSISTENCY The project is consistent with the (BP) Business Park land use designation and the (LI) Light Industrial zone applicable to the properly in the Temecula General Plan and Development Code. Upon approval of the Development Plan as conditioned, the project will meet all of the standards and guidelines for industrial development prescribed by the Development Code and Design Guidelines. SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS The project has been determined by staff to be consistent with applicable City policies, standards and guidelines, and compatible with the nature and quality of surrounding development. Staff is supporting the requested increase of 10% in the FAR (from 0.40 to 0.44) based on the proposition that we would have supported the project design before the additional enhancements were added in support of the request. We are therefore recommending approval of PA99-0128 based on the following findings. RECOMMENDED FINDINGS The proposal is consistent with the land use designation and policies reflected for (BP) Business Park development in the City of Temecula General Plan, and the standards for (U) Light Industrial development contained in the City's Development Code. The site is therefore properly planned and zoned and found to be physically suitable for the type and density of industrial development proposed. The project as conditioned is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local ordinance, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City-Wide Design Guidelines, and fire and building codes. The overall design of the project, including the site, building, parking, circulation and other associated site improvements, is consistent with and intended to protect the health and safety of those working in and around the site. The project has been reviewed for, and as conditioned has been found to be consistent with, all applicable policies, guidelines, standards and regulations intended to ensure that the development will be constructed and function in a manner consistent with the public health, safety and welfare. Furthermore it has been found that the project provides enhanced design features consistent with the incentive category for architectural and landscape design listed in the Development Code (TMC 17.08.050A2), which supports the requested increase in FAR from 0.40 to 0.44. The design of the proposed improvements is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. There are no fish, wildlife or habitat on the project site, and the project will not affect any fish, wildlife or habitat off-site. The site is surrounded by development and is an in-fill site. Furthermore, grading has already occurred at the site, which is a portion of a larger industrial park. The project will not individually or cumulatively have an adverse effect on wildlife resources, as defined in Section 711.2 of the Fish and Game Code.
