FT. ON A 15.3-ACRE PARCEL LOCATED AT 30700 RANCHO VIEJO ROAD (ASSESSOR PARCEL NUMBER: 650-111-15) AND FINDING THAT SAID ACTION IS EXEMPT FROM CEQA PURSUANT TO STATE CEQA GUIDELINES SECTION 15302 (APPLICANT: BENJAMIN HORNING, DEDEAUX PROPERTIES, LLC) Whereas, Benjamin Horning with Dedeaux Properties, LLC., 100 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 250, Santa Monica, CA 90401 (the "Applicant"), has requested approval of Architectural Control (AC) 23-006 and Grading Plan Modification (GPM) 23-019, Swallows Creek, related to the construction of three industrial warehouse buildings totaling 136,308 sq. ft. on a 15.3-acre parcel located at 30700 Rancho Viejo Road (APN 650-111-15) (the "Project"). The subject parcel has a Zoning designation of Industrial Park (IP) District and a General Plan Land Use Designation of Industrial Park; and, Whereas, Rancho Viejo Owner LLC, 100 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 250, Santa Monica, CA 90401, are the owners of the real property located at Assessor Parcel Number 650-111-15; and, Whereas, on May 25, 2022, the Planning Commission (PC) adopted PC Resolution No. 22-05-25-02, approving AC 21-017, Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 21- 005, GPM 21-018, and Tree Removal Permit (TRP) 21-025 to allow for the demolition of an existing 123,000 sq. ft. industrial building, and related improvements, and the construction of three industrial warehouse buildings totaling 136,308 sq. ft. on a 15.3-acre parcel located at 30700 Rancho Viejo Road and to allow establishment of vehicle sales use for Building #3; and Whereas, construction plans were submitted into the Building and Grading Permit Plan Check process in June of 2023, that contained substantial site design deviations from the AC 21-017 & GPM 21-018 entitlements approved via PC Resolution No. 22-05- 25-02. As a result, the Land Use Code requires new entitlement applications to be reviewed and considered; and Whereas, the site design deviations do not affect the privileges granted under CUP 21-005 and TRP 21-025, as the proposed site design changes do not require removal of additional trees nor impact the proposed use; and Whereas, the expiration date of privileges granted under CUP 21-005 and TRP 21-025, in accordance with PC Resolution No. 22-05-25-02, remains June 10, 2024; and PC Resolution 24-01-10-01 2 January 10, 2024 Whereas, AC 23-006 and GPM 23-019 supersede the previously approved AC 21- 017 and GPM 21-018; and Whereas, Exhibit A, project conditions of approval, of this Resolution supersede Exhibit A of PC Resolution No. 22-05-25-02 and apply to AC 23-006, CUP 21-005, GPM 23-019, and TRP 21-025; and Whereas, the City's Environmental Administrator has determined that the Project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15302, Replacement or Reconstruction, which exempts replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced. Here, the entire Project is exempt per Section 15302 because it involves the replacement of a 123,000 sq. fl. industrial building and related improvements with three industrial buildings totaling 136,310 sq. fl. The new industrial buildings, comprised of warehouse and vehicle sales use, would substantially serve the same size (negligible increase in square footage), purpose (light industrial uses), and capacity (negligible increase in traffic flow). Further, an Air Quality & Greenhouse Gas Emissions Analysis, Health Risk Assessment, Noise Impact Analysis, and Focused Traffic Study, were prepared by professional firms and concluded that the Project would have no significant effects on the environment. Lastly, none of the conditions set forth under State CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2 apply. There are no cumulative impacts because there will be no successive projects of the same type on this same site over time. There are no unusual circumstances that apply to the project that would result in a reasonable possibility for a significant effect on the environment. There are no scenic resources within an officially designated scenic highway on or near the project site that would result in damage to those scenic resources as a result of the project. The project site is not included on any list compiled pursuant to Government Code section 65962.5. There are no historical resources on or near the project site such that there would be a substantial adverse change in the significance of such historical resource. The project is therefore categorically exempt from CEQA. If the Project receives final approval, a Notice of Exemption would be filed with the County Recorder's Office within 5 working days of such approval; and Whereas, the Planning Commission has considered the Environmental Administrator's determination pursuant to Section 15051 of the State CEQA Guidelines and has considered all Project environmental documentation; and, Whereas, the Planning Commission conducted a duly-noticed public hearing on December 13, 2023 and January 10, 2024, pursuant to Municipal Code Section 9-2.302. The Planning Commission has considered all public testimony on the proposed Project and all relevant public comments and all documents and evidence submitted, including but not limited to the staff report, attachments, and materials submitted by the Applicant; and, PC Resolution 24-01-10-01 3 January 10, 2024 Whereas, all other legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission of the City of San Juan Capistrano does hereby find that the entire Project is Categorically Exempt from further review under the California Environmental Quality Act per State CEQA Guidelines Section 15302, Replacement or Reconstruction, which exempts replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced. Here, the entire Project is exempt per Section 15302 because it involves the replacement of a 123,000 sq. ft. industrial building and related improvements with three industrial buildings totaling 136,310 sq. ft. The new industrial buildings, comprised of warehouse and vehicle sales use, would substantially serve the same size (negligible increase in square footage), purpose (light industrial uses), and capacity (negligible increase in traffic flow). Further, an Air Quality & Greenhouse Gas Emissions Analysis, Health Risk Assessment, Noise Impact Analysis, and Focused Traffic Study, were prepared by professional firms and concluded that the Project would have no significant effects on the environment. Lastly, none of the exceptions to the exemptions in State CEQA Guidelines, section 15300.2, apply. Specifically, the Project: a. Location exception only applies to Class 3, 4, 5, 6 and 11 exemptions, none of which are being utilized here. b. There is no possibility of a cumulative impact of the same type of project in the same place over time. Once the Project is reconstructed, the likelihood of a successive project on this site is low and probability of a cumulative impact is low. c. Is not marked by unusual circumstances. There is nothing unusual about the demolition and construction of industrial buildings. d. Would not damage scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway. e. Is not located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. f.

The Planning Commission hereby directs staff to prepare, execute and file with the Orange County Clerk a Notice of Exemption within five (5) working days of Project's approval and adoption of this Resolution . NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission of the City of San Juan Capistrano does hereby make the following findings PC Resolution 24-01-10-01 4 January 10, 2024 pursuant to Municipal Code Section 9-2.313(c) of Title 9, Land Use Code of the City of San Juan Capistrano with respect to Architectural Control (AC) 23-006, under Municipal Code Section 9-2.313(a)(3), subject to the conditions of approval identified in Exhibit A -u--a.....-,..1 .,__ +hi,.... c-r--1. ,+i"" "tinrl in,..n.-nnra+an horoin h,, roforon,.....o· OLLCIUI IOU LU LI II~ I '-VilVIULIVI I CII IU 111\.IVI t-'VI LVU I IVI VII I ..,, '""''-"' '-"' ''"'""• 1. The proposed use of the Project complies with all applicable provisions of Title 9 of the San Juan Municipal Code because a warehousing use, containing 50,000 sq. ft. of floor area or more, is allowable as conditionally permitted use within the Industrial Park zoning district. Additionally, the proposed use and design of the project complies with all applicable provisions of Title 9 of the San Juan Municipal Code as the project meets all applicable development and zoning standards. There is no applicable specific plan or comprehensive development plan for this property. 2. The proposed use and design of the Project is consistent with the goals, policies and objectives of the General Plan, including the Community Design Element, because the Industrial Park land use designation allows for light industrial uses and related uses, and the Project consists of a warehousing containing 50,000 sq. ft. or more. The proposed use is located within an area consisting of compatible land uses, such as industrial to the south, open space to the north, east, and west (adjacent to the 1-5 freeway). The Project would also be consistent with the following policies of the Community Design Element: • Community Design Element Policy 1. 1 Preserve significant amounts of land and important natural features for open space. The Project is consistent with this policy because the proposed development would not be located within an area designated as General Open Space, thereby preserving that significant land area and any important natural features; and • Community Design Element Policy 1. 2 Encourage high-quality and human scale design in development to maintain the character of the City. The Project is consistent with this policy because the proposed buildings and drought tolerant landscaping would feature high quality materials and architectural detailing. Additionally, the site improvements incorporate a human scale design by providing a desirable environment for visitors as there would be adequate parking, new landscaping, and lighting. Lastly, the Project is designed to be compatible with the surrounding properties; and • Community Design Element Policy 3. 1 Limit development of important natural characteristics such as ridgelines, unique hillside features and creeks. The Project is consistent with this policy as the proposed development would not impact any ridgelines, hillside features, or creeks. PC Resolution 24-01-10-01 5 January 10, 2024 3. The site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate all yards, open spaces, setbacks, parking, access, and other features pertaining to the application because the Project would not conflict with Code requirements with respect to setbacks, parking, access, or other features as all development standards are being met. 4. The character, scale, and quality of the site design and landscaping are consistent with the adopted Architectural Design Guidelines as follows: • Design Issue/Principle 2: Eclectic Building Styles. The proposed buildings consist of a Modern Industrial style, which incorporates architectural elements that are compatible with adjacent buildings that are located within the area, specifically the industrial building to the south. The proposed architectural design is appropriate for the use and setting because it is consistent with the Architectural Design Guidelines for industrial buildings, which states, "no particular architectural "style" is required for industrial development. High quality, innovative and imaginative architecture is encouraged." • Design Issue/Principle 3: Authenticity. The proposed architectural design is well-executed and is consistently carried out from the overall building form to fine detail. • Design Issue/Principal 6: Richness of Details and Materials. The proposed architectural style is Modern Industrial which complies with and complements the eclectic building styles that exist in the city and, which consists of a mix of styles including Mediterranean, Spanish Colonial, Monterey, Mission Revival, Rural Agrarian, Modern, Western, and Early California. Each building is provided with glazing, variations in color and material, pop-outs, and a color palette which provide a richness of detail and material. • Design Issue/Principal 7: Relationship to Natural Settings. The siting and design of the development is such that is does not impact any views, vistas, community landmarks, or cultural features. • Design Issue/Principal 9: Incremental Growth. The Project replaces the recently demolished 123,000 sq. ft. industrial building with three warehouse buildings totaling 136,308 sq. ft. on a 15.3- acre parcel. • Policy 4, C. 5. Vehicular Access/Circulation/Parking. The proposed redesign of the site would result in a new circulation pattern that provides for safe vehicular turn movements and defined and functional pedestrian and vehicular circulation. • Policy 4.C.9 Utility and Mechanical Equipment. Careful consideration was given regarding the placement of rooftop PC Resolution 24-01-10-01 6 January 101 2024 mechanical equipment to ensure that they would be completely screened from view. • Policy 4. C. 100 Refuse and Storage Areas.

Their location would allow for easy accessibility for trash collection and would not impede general site circulation patterns during loading operations. The enclosure would be provided with a flat roof, CMU walls, and swinging metal gates, all painted to match the building. The trash enclosure would have a compatible design with that of the proposed buildings. • Design 4. C. 13 Lighting. The lighting would comply with the requirements of Land Use Code Section 9-3.529. Furthermore, the design of the light fixtures and their structural supports are architecturally compatible with the theme of the development. • Policy 4.0.1 Architectural Imagery. The Modern Industrial architectural style was designed with consideration to the City's Architectural Design Guidelines and conveys a sense of authenticity. • Policy 4.0.4 Building Materials and Colors. The Project proposes building materials and colors that complement the overall design theme and surrounding development. • Policy 4.E.1 Landscape Guidelines. The Project landscaping would incorporate California Friendly and/or California Native plant species. The landscape design would contribute towards achieving an overall cohesive appearance and compatibility to its surroundings. 5. The site plan provides functional and safe vehicular and pedestrian access and circulation because the Project includes the reconfiguration of on-site parking to provide for safe vehicular turn movements and a pedestrian walkway that provides defined and functional pedestrian circulation. 6. The proposed use and design of the Project are compatible with surrounding existing and proposed land uses and community character, including scale, intensity, massing, architectural design, landscape design, and other development characteristics because the Project is located on a site that is surrounded by Industrial Park (industrial), Office Commercial (commercial), General Open Space (open space), and Planned Community (open space) zoning and the Project consists of a three industrial warehouse buildings that would incorporate design features and landscaping features, including California Friendly and/or California Native plant species, which are complementary to the surrounding land uses. The Project is therefore compatible with the surrounding uses and improvements. PC Resolution 24-01-10-01 7 January 10, 2024 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission of the City of San Juan Capistrano does hereby make the following findings pursuant to Municipal Code Section 9-2.323 of Title 9, Land Use Code of the City of San Juan Capistrano with respect to Grading Plan Modification (GPM) 23-019 for onsite grading under Municipal Code Section 9-2.323(f), subject to the conditions of approval identified in Exhibit A attached to this Resolution and incorporated herein by reference: 1. The proposed grading modifications are consistent with the General Plan, Land Use Code, and Design Guidelines because the proposed grading, which involves 81,441 cubic yards of total base cut and 42,449 cubic yards of total compacted fill, resulting in 38,992 cubic yards of export, is allowed and no protected ridgelines exist on the Project site. The proposed grading would reshape the existing, previously developed landform to accommodate redevelopment of the site with a similar use, would conform to the requirements of appropriate soils and geology reports, and would be performed under the supervision of a qualified soils engineer. Landscaping has been incorporated into the landscape plans to minimize erosion and benefit aesthetics. There is no applicable specific plan or comprehensive development plan for this property. 2. The proposed grading modifications are generally consistent with the approved site plan, preliminary grading plan, landscape plan, grading standards, and design concepts of the original project as approved by the reviewing authority because the site was a previously developed lot with a 123,000 sq. ft. industrial building and would be graded, to the extent possible, to accommodate edge conditions, thereby minimizing impact to adjacent properties. 3. The proposed grading would remain consistent and compatible with immediately-adjacent lots or units, including, to the extent possible, blending of slopes with adjacent property boundaries, rounding of slopes at both top and bottom to blend the grading into the existing terrain, and incorporating a design which harmonizes the design with the natural contours of the property and surrounding lots. The proposed grading which would take place adjacent to property lines would tie into the adjacent properties to blend the slopes with adjacent properties, to the extent possible. Given the site's topography, retaining walls are proposed within the development, with fencing on top of the walls as necessary for safety. Retaining walls would be softened and screened with the use of landscaping, as conditioned. 4. The proposed modified grading plan shows the location of proposed building footprints which would meet all required minimum setbacks for buildings as defined in the Industrial Park Zoning District and the general design standards, including minimum setbacks from the tops PC Resolution 24-01 -10-01 8 January 10, 2024 5. and toes of slopes, contained within Section 9-4.513, Graded Slopes.

Prior to issuance of a grading or building permit, the applicant must demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Public Works Director that the proposed grading would not result in any negative impacts to hydrology and water quality as required by local and state laws. The grading modifications would not impact views or trail easements because the grading and retaining walls would be softened and screened with the use of landscaping, as conditioned, and the grading does not encroach or alter any trail system. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission of the City of San Juan Capistrano hereby approves of Architectural Control (AC) 23-006 and Grading Plan Modification (GPM) 23-019, subject to those conditions of approval that-are applicable to these entitlements as established by Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
