STAFF REPORT
DATE: June 11, 1980
TO: Planning Coinmission
FROM: Brian Milich, Planning Departinent
SUBJECT: CT 80-27/PUD-19; BIRTCHER PACIFIC
18 Lot Planned Industrial Development at
Yarrow Drive and Corte de la Pina, Palomar
Airport Business Park
I) Project Description
The applicant is proposing an 18 lot planned industrial
development on 7.23 acres located in the Palomar Airport
Business Park. A total 105,995 sguare feet of building
space is proposed in seventeen separate buildings. Ade-
quate sewer connections have been allocated for the pro-
ject. The buildings will be one-story (maximum height of
19 feet) containing a mixture of manufacturing, warehousing
and office space.
Although portions of the property have been previously
disturbed, most of the site remains in its natural state.
Approximately 16,000 cubic yards of grading is proposed
in conjunction with this project.
The applicant is requesting a planned unit development
in order to create individual lots for each building.
The lots will correspond to the building footprint, allow-
ing them to be sold individually, with an undivided interest
in the common area. A planned unit development would also
allow the applicant to the development standards of the
underlying P-M Zone.
A cul-de-sac will be constructed, providing access to
the subject property from Corte de la Pina. This public
street was required as part of the resubdivision of this
property, CT 79-14.
II) Analysis
Planning Issues
1) Has the project been comprehensively designed
and have adequate on-site amenities been provided
-1-
to justify modification to the underlying P-M standards?
2) Does the circulation system provide safe and
efficient pedestrian and vehicular traffic movement?
Discussion
The purpose of a Planned Unit Development is to facili-
tate the development of a comprehensively planned
project, emphasizing imaginative and innovative design,
coupled with individual building ownership. The Planned
Unit Development also allows some variance in the
application of zoning and subdivision regulations to
the particular property. In this case, the P-M zone
would normally require one acre minimum lots, in
addition to 50 foot front, 25 foot rear, and 20 foot
side yard setbacks. Also, in the P-M zone, parking
cannot be closer than ten feet to a rear or interior
side property line. The applicant is proposing a
number of deviations from these standards in order to
provide individual building ownership and additional
on-site amenities.
More specifically, the "postage stamp lots" created for
each building do not meet the one acre lot minimum. In
addition, the plans indicate parking within the front
yard setback and to within five feet of the side and
rear lot lines. Also, Building No. 17 encroaches five
feet into the required side yard.
As previously mentioned, the applicant is proposing
additional on-site amenities in order to justify the
postage stamp lots and yard encroachments. These
amenities include ample landscaping throughout the
development, attractively designed buildings, three
open space/picnic areas, and a well designed entrance
into the development. These amenities are all considered
to be important aspects of the project in terms of
justifying any modification to the P-M standards.
Initially, the open space/picnic areas and the entry
landscaping were considerably smaller in size. The
applicant agreed with staff that these areas were signi-
ficant in terms of accommodating the needs of the
employees and in providing an attractively designed
project, and therefore re-designed the plans. These
-2-
plans which are presently before the Coinmission show a
comprehensively designed project, with sufficient on-
site amenities to justify modifications to the underlying
P-M zoning standards.
The proposed plans also represent a significant modifi-
cation to the applicant's initial submittal in terms
of on-site traffic circulation. Specifically, the
entrance to the subject property has been re-designed
by extending the landscape islands and re-positioning
the driveway opening. This provides additional room
so that larger trucks can negotiate the turns at the
entrance, and it also reduces the potential for vehicular
conflicts at this intersection point. A number of other
on-site turn radii have also been modified to facilitate
truck circulation, and pedestrian pathways have been
developed throughout the project to reduce pedestrian
vehicular conflicts.
As proposed, the project is comprehensively designed,
providing adequate on-site circulation, off-street parking,
recreational facilities, and landscaping, in addition to
well designed buildings. Also, the project meets all of
the development standards of the PUD ordinance as they
relate to yards, coverage, height, refuse areas and open
space.
Ill. Recommendation
