STAFF REPORT
DATE: MAY 18, 1988
TO: DESIGN REVIEW BOARD
FROM: PIANNING DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: RP 87-10 ROWE-BECHMANN - Request for a major
Redevelopment Permit to construct an office/warehouse
building at 3275 Roosevelt Street in Subarea 4 of the
Village Redevelopment Area and also in Local Facilities
Management Zone No. 1.
I. RECOMMENDATION
That the Design Review Board ADOPT Resolution No. 117 DENYING RP
87-10, based on the findings contained therein.
II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a major Redevelopment Permit to
construct a 5,444 square foot, two-story building on a level .24
acre site. The proposed structure will consist of four
warehouse/storage areas at the ground level and four offices at
the second level. This is proposed to serve the needs of small
businessmen and contractors who need both office and storage
space. Twelve parking spaces have been provided to serve the
project. The subject site is presently vacant and is apparently
used as an illegal parking lot for adjacent industrial uses
located along Tyler Street. Properties to the north and east are
developed with older single family residences. A commercial
development, Lola's Market, also exists to the east. Property to
the south is developed with Gilbert's Auto Body, which is under
construction. Property to the west along Tyler Street is
developed with K and K Vitamins, Jobe Gay Concrete, and Andrews
Towing.
III. ANALYSIS
1) Does the proposed project conform with the goals of
Subarea 4 of the Village Redevelopment Area, including
the Special Treatment Area for the east side of Tyler
Street?

2) Does the proposed project comply with the development
standards of the Village Design Manual?
3) Does the proposed project comply with City standards
regarding queuing and loading areas?
4) Does the proposed project comply with the requirements
of the Zone 1 Local Facilities Management Plan?
DISCUSSION
A. Goals of Subarea 4
The proposed project is located at the southern end of
Subarea 4 in the Village Redevelopment Area which has
traditionally functioned as a heavy commercial, light
manufacturing area. This portion of the City is seen as
possibly functioning as a major repair, service, and
distribution center encouraging uses such as contractors'
yards, storage areas, cabinet manufacturing, and
neighborhood commercial uses. The subject site is also
located within the Special Treatment Area for the east side
of Tyler Street. Because this is a through lot, it also has
frontage along the west side of Roosevelt Street. This area
has been deemed by the Housing and Redevelopment Commission
to allow only those uses which have a lesser intensity than
C-M zone uses.
The blocks located between Roosevelt and Tyler are
particularly difficult to develop because uses on each
street are of a very different nature and intensity. The
applicant has tried to address this issue with his site
design and at the same time comply with the goals of Subarea
4. As shown on Exhibit "X", the subject site is a through
lot fronting on both streets. To provide compatibility with
the uses on Roosevelt Street, the applicant has increased
the front yard setback on this street to 32 feet. This far
exceeds the setbacks provided by other commercial uses on
Roosevelt — Gilbert's Auto Body, Dave's Radiator, and
Lola's Market which have front yard setbacks ranging from 0'
to 10'. An architectural style with beige stucco, brown
composition shingles and brown wood trim makes the structure
appear to be a small office building with roll-up doors.
Although a very simple and plain design, the architecture is
compatible with what has been previously provided in the
area.
The proposed project meets the goals of Subarea 4 by
providing a use which assists in revitalizing this area of
MAY 18, 1988

downtown, serves the needs of small businessmen in the area,
and addresses compatibility with Roosevelt Street.
B. Village Desian Manual Standards
The proposed project also complies with all of the design
standards for Subarea 4 of the Village Redevelopment area.
Because the project fronts on both Roosevelt and Tyler
Streets, parking has been provided on both sides of the
building. Eight spaces have been provided on Tyler and four
on Roosevelt. This complies with the parking ordinance.
Landscaping requirements have been provided through the use
of perimeter landscaping — 8'on Tyler, 9' on Roosevelt, and
4' along the interior property lines. Overall, 24% of the
site will be covered with landscaping. All setbacks have
been far exceeded with 50' provided on Tyler, 32' on
Roosevelt, and 11» on the interior property lines. The
applicant has met all zoning requirements and has provided
greater setbacks and more landscaping than any other project
in the immediate area.
C. Oueuing and Loadina Areas
As stated above, the applicant has provided parking on both
Tyler Street and Roosevelt Street. However, the design of
the parking spaces is in conflict with required queuing and
loading areas. City standards require queuing areas to be a
minimum of 20 feet for each 1000 ADT or fraction thereof.
The queuing depth is measured from the back of the sidewalk.
City standards require loading zones to be free of parking
stalls and obstructions and must not impede free movement
and circulation of passenger vehicles. The applicant has
requested exception to these standards based on the small
size of the project as well as the small traffic generated
by the project (66.9 ADT's). A queuing distance of 20' is
proposed on Roosevelt and a queuing distance of 8' on Tyler.
The applicant also believes that only smaller trucks will be
utilized and that these will unload within the structure.
Although adjacent properties have similar constricted
parking and little, if any, queuing or loading areas, the
proposed project does not comply with engineering standards,
therefore, engineering staff cannot recommend approval of
the project.
D. Public Facilities Adequacy
This project is located within Local Facility Management
Zone 1. The impacts on future public facilities by this
project have been analyzed to ensure compliance with the
MAY 18, 1988
RP 87-10 ROWE-BECHMANN
PAGE 4
Facilities and Improvements Plan. Attached is Exhibit "Y"
which is a summary chart that highlights the impacts
generated by this project for all 11 public facilities.
This project creates no adverse impacts on any of the City's
public facilities and conforms with the adopted Local
Facilities Management Plan for this Zone.
Summary
The proposed use is consistent with the goals of the Village
Design Manual and the Special Treatment Area for the east side of
Tyler Street. It also meets all the design standards for Subarea
4 and is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The
proposed project, however, does not comply with the engineering
standards for loading and queuing areas, therefore, staff
recommends denial of RP 87-10.
IV. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This project is exempt from Environmental Review per Section
15303(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act.
