Provide a roof plan (plan view) indicating the location and height of roof appurtenances, vents, mechanical equipment etc. All roof equipment must be screened from view of surrounding properties and the public right-of-way. Show the roof parapet and any roof appurtenances that extend above the parapet. ENGINEERING: 1. The Preliminary Title Report (PTR) states that the property is owned in fee title by the Sumitomo Bank of California and not Mr. Steve Knorr. Is Mr. Knorr in' the process of purchasing this property? If he is not and intends to lease this property for development purposes then a corporate officer from the Sumitomo Bank of California must also sign the Planned Industrial Permit (PIP) application or submit a notarized,letter stating that they are aware that there is a proposed project for the site. ISSUES OF CONCERN PLANNING: 1. The PM Zone requires that all fencing in setback areas shall not exceed a height of 6 feet, therefore, the 8 foot high security and screen fencing should be not exceed a height of 6 feet. Specific Plan 181 (A) requires that all screening for outdoor storage areas shall consist of a solid concrete or masonry wall, therefore, the open chain link fence should be replaced with a solid wall similar to the proposed wall along the .western property line. - -. 2. As required by the City's Parking Ordinance, in cases where a fractional parking space is required, the number of required spaces shall be rounded to the nearest, highest whole number, therefore, 41.2 parking spaces must be rounded up to 42 required parking spaces. 3. The outdoor storage/warehouse area (3,264 sq. ft.) constitutes an accessory land use that generates a parking demand. Before the Planning Department staff would support the approval of this project, additional onsite parking spaces to cover the outdoor storage area, at a parking ratio determined by the parking ordinance (1 parking space per 1,000 square feet of warehouse/storage area), must be provided. 4. Per the recommendations of the architectural design guidelines of Specific Plan 181(A) provide a stronger project entry statement by enhancing the driveway entrance with some form of pavement treatment, (i.e. textured and colored concrete, or aggregate paving, etc..). 5. To screen the outdoor lunch area from the parking lot provide a row of shrubs. In addition, on the landscape plan show the improvements for the outdoor lunch area (i.e. tables, benches, trellis, trash containers, etc..). 6. See the attached redline checkprints for additional comments. Please return all marked checkprints with the resubmittal of the project. ENGINEERING: Traffic and Circulation 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Are the lineal square designations adjacent to the truck well supposed to b.e stepping stones? Wouldn't a concrete sidewalk be better suited adjacent to a loading area? Please address this item. Vehicular backing maneuvers will be difficult at the easterly end parking space located adjacent to the outside storage area due to the rolling security gate. Please either off-set the gate to achieve a 5 ft. "pop-out'' to facilitate vehicular backing or relocate this parking space. At the reception/office area please show a handicap ramp at the concrete flat work. Please either indicate the curb to curb and right of way width, or, show a typical section of Kellogg Avenue. Please show the existing street light standard located adjacent to the existing fire hydrant on Kellogg Avenue. Please show the truck well percent grade on the Site Development Plan (SDP). Please show a typical parking space dimension at 170 sq. ft. (20' x 8.5') and the handicap space dimension at 280 sq. ft. (20' x 14'). Please explain the type of loading which will occur at the rear of the building. Is this just for fork-lifts or is vehicular access intended? Please label concrete paving aisle width. Please show all aisle dimensions at 24' minimum. Drainage 10. The drainage patterns shown on the conceptual grading plan are acceptable; however, how will water be pumped from the sump condition at the truck well to the City storm drain, i.e., does the sump pump connect to any piping? 11. City Improvement Drawing 241-6 shows a modified type "F" catch basin in the vicinity of this property. Is this catch basin and connecting storm drain onsite? If this storm drain system is onsite, please delete the proposed D25 type curb drain and direct the onsite drainage into the storm drain. Please show this catch basin and storm drain system including the section in Kellogg Avenue. 12. In accordance with National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) criteria the proposed outdoor storage area may be required to be covered and have full containment capability in case of an accidental spill. Please provide an explanation or list of the types of items which will be stored in this area, i.e, liquids (cleaners, solutions), solids (wax), machinery, etc. Additionally, also in accordance with NPDES criteria, surface pollutant run-off must be mitigated onsite before discharging into the public storm drain system. Please indicate how this mitigation will be attained. Directing surface run-off through a vegetated swale is one way to provide this mitigation. Land Title 13. Please provide copies of PTR items 4, 5, and 6 and plot any associated easements. Also, label the easements future disposition on the SDP. Field Conditions 14. Please show where the existing electrical stub, located in the proposed driveway, will be relocated to. Mapping 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. Please clearly label the bearing and distance on the westerly property line on the SDP. Please label the application type (PIP 93-03). Please put the date of preparation on the SDP. Please show northerly side yard setback. Will there be any type of monument sign for the project? If so, please show it, keeping required sight distance in accordance with the CALTRANS Design Manual. Also, will the proposed landscaping obstruct the driveway sight distance? Please add site address to SDP. Under the "Notes" section on the SDP, there is verbage regarding Sheet A2; this sheet was not included. Please add the referenced notes to the SDP. -. ..

Knorr is the owner. Please see attached Grant Deed. 2. Done 3. PIP # is 93-03 not 93-02 4. Done 5. See landscape plan 6. Done ENGINEERING: 1. Knorr is the owner. Please see attached Grant Deed. PLANNING 1. Fences have been reduced to 6' in the setback area. Hedges will be planted to provide screening to 8'. The bank to the north of the yard provides the necessary screening. The chain link fence only provides security. I believe that this meets the intent of the ordinance. I also believe that a solid fence at the toe of the slope would be detrimental. 2. 2 parking spaces were added 3. Outside storage was reduced and parking was added. 4. Textured and colored paving was added. 5. Shrubs added to screen. 6. Textured paving added at lunch area. Patio furniture call out was added. Furniture is existing heavy iron and will be moved to this site. ENGINEERING 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Stepping stones will serve adequately. 5' back out space added by shifting fence.
