A preliminary review of your project was conducted on March 27, 1997 and April
2, 1997. Listed below are the issues raised by staff. Please note that the purpose
of a preliminary review is to provide you with direction and comments on the
overall concept of your project. The preliminary review does not represent an in-
depth analysis of your project. Additional issues of concern may be raised after
your application is submitted and processed for a more specific and detailed review.
Plannina:
1. All "shell" type or "spec" buildings in the industrial zones shall be required to
provide one space for every 250 square feet of gross floor area. Projects
which wish to have parking at manufacturing standards or at warehouse
standards must have a deed restriction placed on the property indicating that
these uses on the property will be retained and no other type uses creating a
need for additional parking will be permitted unless more parking area is
provided to meet City standards.
2. Any driveway including parking within front-yard setbacks shall be screened
from a public street by a mixture of mounding and planting.
3. The South & West elevations have limited architectural style. We recommend
increased architectural relief through the use of structural offsets, insets,
articulated surfaces, roof overhangs, etc. for the South & West elevations
Enaineerina:
1. The applicant should look at the approved drawings for this business park.
The sewer laterals, water services and existing drainage improvements are
provided and should be considered before building or driveway placement (to
avoid conflict).

The specific plan for this project includes driveway and access locations.
This was established to maintain a safe circulation network within the
business park. The applicant should review this plan and conform to the
approved locations.
As a standard practice, the Architect should review and include existing
improvements adjacent to and impacted by the proposed development. I
believe the driveway to the South of this project is an existing, shared
driveway, this should be noted.
The developer should show existing and proposed NPDES drainage systems.
(Usually Oil and Grease separators or filters are required).
The developer should include all existing and proposed restrictions across the
proposed project. All utilities should also be shown to resolve conflicts at an
early stage.
Show specific information regarding the existing and proposed grading and
the existing and proposed drainage of the entire site.
The onsite circulation plan needs minor revision. Truck circulation needs to
be plotted and access to and from the loading dock appears to be difficult if
not impossible. Usually we plot the semi-truck turn path from Cal Trans turn
template. Use 407-D for semi trucks and 407-E for single unit trucks. The
single unit truck template will also work for trash trucks.
The proposed parking design should be modified to show the standard 5'
offset in both directions at 90 degree or corner parking areas. The angle or
skewed parking bays should also be offset a little to avoid "blocking in" by
vehicle overhang.
Please contact Greg Fisher at (760) 438-1 161, extension 4328 if you have any
questions.
