NEW PUBLIC HEARING
1. Architectural Control (AC) 10-028 Orange Coast Chrysler, a request for review of
design plans for a proposed remodel and a 3,483 sf addition to an existing 24,788
sf, building located at 32881 Camino Capistrano (APN 668-291-13), (Applicant:
Keith Wyer) (Project Manager: Justin Kirk, Associate Planner).
Commissioner Cohen recused himself from consideration of this item, had a conflict
with this project. The gavel was passed to Vice Chair Ratcliffe.
Staff presentation & recommendation
Justin Kirk, Associate Planner made the staff presentation advising the Commission
that the proposed project include a new signage, entry, parts mezzanine,
landscaping, reconfigured parking, remodel of the exterior fagade, renovation of the
existing service area to provide eleven service bays, expansion of the showroom at
the front of the building by 3,483 square feet, and the addition of a 2,405 square
foot service canopy. The existing 24,788 square foot building would be expanded to
a total of 28,271 square feet with a second story parking area. At this time the
applicant has not submitted a proposed sign program or landscape plan and has
requested that both items be deferred until Planning Commission approval has
been obtained.
PC Meetinq Minutes 3 September 28, 2010
The Design Review Committee (DRC) previously reviewed the proposed project at
the September 2, 2010 meeting. At this meeting the DRC provided specific design
direction on necessary changes to the proposed project. Specifically these changes
were oriented to the front of the building and the proposed building finish. With
respect to the front facade of the building the DRC recommended that the height of
the proposed parapet wall needed to be reduced and a cornice trim be added. The
DRC used the proposed signs as a reference point as these signs appeared to be
"floating" and were not in scale with the fagade. In addition to the height issue, the
DRC recommended the proposed reconfigured arches be further addressed as the
proposed modifications generally reduced the architectural integrity of the structure.
With respect to the proposed building finish the proposed "scoring" to the stucco
created an overt modern appearance that detracted from the building's attempt to
blend the existing Spanish architecture and the Chrysler corporate design
requirements of a more modern appearance. The DRC directed the applicant to
tone down the scoring of the stucco or eliminate it from the design altogether.
Based upon these comments the applicant made the following modifications to the
proposed design:
• Reduced the height of the parapet wall by 6 (six) inches.
• Added a 1'-0" cornice trim to the top of the wall.
• Refined the proposed modification to the existing arches, to minimize the
elongation of the arch.
• Removed the scoring finish on the building fagade.
Subsequently the DRC reviewed the item at the September 16, 2010 meeting. The
DRC determined that the applicant's modifications to the design plan were reflective
of the direction that was previously provided. In addition to these comments, the
DRC identified two other areas that required additional modifications. The first was
the use of an arched window on north and east fagades. The primary concern was
that these windows were located on the first floor of a two story tower element, and
traditional architectural design practice has been to use a squared window below an
arched window, whereas the applicant had proposed two arched windows. The
second area of concern was the proposed color; the applicant had proposed a cool
grey color, which is part of the Chrysler design theme for its dealerships. The DRC
discussed the potential issue of the blending the building's color to the existing red
clay "s" tile roof as the two colors would not appropriately blend. The applicant
consented to the proposed modification and requested the deferral of a color
selection until after the Planning Commission's action on the proposed project.
Staff specified that the applicant had previously requested the deferral of the
landscape plan and sign program and that staff had planned to incorporate the
subsequent review into the Conditions of Approval and could do the same with the
building color selection. The DRC found this action to be reasonable and subject to
the modification to the first floor windows and forwarded the proposed project to the
Planning Commission with a recommendation of approval.
PC Meeting Minutes 4 September 28, 2010
Commission Questions
Commissioner Kerr noticed on conditions of approval #13 Landscape Plan and
#14 Building Color stated that they need to be submitted prior to the Certificate of

Remediation System; consideration of an application to demolish an existing chain
link fence and install a new vinyl fence for an above ground equipment compound
located at 32001 Camino Capistrano; generally located at the southwest corner of
Del Obispo Street and Camino Capistrano (APN: 668-073-01)(Applicant: Nick
Pryor, Holguin Fahan & Associates) (Project Manager: Nick Taylor, Planninq
Technician).
Staff presentation & recommendation
Nick Taylor, Planning Technician made the staff presentation advising the
Commission that the proposed project consists of a discretionary application to
allow installation of vinyl fencing and above ground remediation equipment. The
existing fuel station is the site of soil and groundwater contamination. The applicant
PC Meeting Minutes 6 September 28 2010
has requested to install the remediation equipment to reduce contamination levels.
The existing fuel station has a chain link fence enclosure on the south elevation of
the building. The applicant has proposed to demolish the fence and install 6'-0"
"Vinylcraft" fencing and new traffic bollards to create a compound for the above-
ground remediation equipment. The fencing is proposed to be screened with
Bougainvillea. An 11'-0" exhaust stack on top of the remediation structure would be
visible above the fence line.
The Design Review Committee preferred the vinyl fencing to the existing chain link.
The DRC recommended that Bougainvillea or similar vine be substituted for the
podocarpus trees which were originally proposed. The sample color for the fence
provided by the applicant was determined to be acceptable. Bronze colored
bollards were preferred. The noise level would be 68-77dB. The existing parking
would not to be changed.
Commission Questions
Commissioner Cohen wanted clarification regarding project completion. Mr. Taylor
stated the expected maximum timeline would be 12-18 months.
Commissioner Cohen asked if this included contaminates in the water table. Mr.
Taylor said yes.
Commissioner Tatarian asked if there was comparable noise now to the sound
levels from the equipment, and where the noise levels are measured from. Mr.
Taylor said the most appropriate place is to measure it from the property line to
insure there are no excessive impacts on adjacent properties and businesses.
Commissioner Tatarian asked how the noise could be characterized. He also asked
how long and what is the noise like? Mr. Taylor deferred to the applicant.
Commissioner Kerr asked if the bollards would after the compound is removed. Mr.
Taylor stated that the bollards will be removed upon completion of remediation.
Chairman Cohen asked if there was still a need for the fencing upon completion of
remediation. Mr. Taylor deferred to the applicant.
Commissioner Williams asked what could be done if the noise exceeded Municipal
Code Requirements.
Mr. Grant Taylor stated the Code Enforcement department has calibrator and a
decimeter that periodically they can go out and measure noise. This could be
added to the conditions of approval.
Applicant Presentation
Todd McFarland Holguin, Fahan & Associates, Inc. Senior Geologist on staff, asked
if there were any questions.
PC Meeting Minutes 7 September 28, 2010
Chairman Cohen asked if the migration is heading northerly. Mr. McFarland stated
that it's headed southerly with ground water toward dance hall well. Commissioner
Cohen also asked if any other type of monitoring is anticipated south of the site.
Commissioner Williams asked if there was a reason to keep the fencing up past the
12-18 month remediation period.
Chairman Cohen asked about how deep is the water table. Mr. McFarland stated
that the depth of the water is 12'-15'.
Commissioner Tatarian asked about characterization of the noise. Mr. McFarland
stated that it's 24/7 operation and the low hum of a motor is audible, no high pitched
noise. Some equipment cycles off and on, it has no clunky noises.
Commissioner Tatarian asked if expected any complaints from the nearest retailers
on the corner were expected. Mr. McFarland said he definitely doesn't expect any
complaints from the nearest retailers.
Commissioner Kerr asked if there would be monitoring after the 18 month time
period. She also asked what about future leaks and asked what type of monitoring
goes on once the equipment and fencing is taken down. The applicant stated once
completed, they will have a monitoring network as required by the Water Board.
This will continue monitoring and making sure that there is no rebounding
concentration or maybe areas that they were not able to access that will come back
and start feeding on ground water contaminants . The water board will being
directing in a thorough methodical way.

2. Architectural Control (AC) 09-031. San Juan Hills Golf Club Tournament Room; a
request for review of design plans for a proposed 6,144 sf, new building, service
area, and trash enclosure located at 32120 San Juan Creek Road, generally located
at approximately 2,750 feet northeast of the intersection of Valle Road, and San
Juan Creek Road (APN 666-011-27) (Applicant: Dan Friess) (Proiect Manager:
Justin Kirk, Associate Planner)
Staff presentation & recommendation
PC Meeting Minutes 9 September 28, 2010
Justin Kirk, Associate Planner made the staff presentation advising the Commission
that the proposed project consists of the construction of a new 6,144 sf, tournament
room (banquet facility) on a 29.26 acre parcel. Additionally the applicant has
proposed the new construction of a 250 sf. trash enclosure and adjacent service
area and the reconfiguration of the existing parking lot with the addition of 70
parking spaces.
On May'20, 2010, the Design Review Committee reviewed the proposed project and
made the following comments and recommendations;
The building -mounted lighting needs to be subdued as much as possible.
The project architect noted the project proposes to use the same type of
sconce as on the existing, recently renovated clubhouse. The DRC
reiterated the need for subdued lighting so that the building is not over -lit
after dark.
• The proposed design is generally consistent with the existing clubhouse
building and while the building mass is rather simple and barn -like, the
design simplicity will allow the building to more easily blend visually into the
background of the site when viewed from San Juan Creek Road.
• Proposed parking needs to be managed so that uses of the facility do not
spillover into the San Juan Creek Road right-of-way. The DRC discussed
the fact that the facility would lend itself to not only hosting tournaments, as
planned, but could easily and would most likely host retirement parties,
holiday parties, wedding reception, anniversary parties, family reunions and a
host of other gathering events. If so, such events, in conjunction with the golf
course use, could exceed the available parking.
• Consider stone wainscoting around the building with depth of material to
create appropriate massing and convey the appearance of a stone cobble
foundation.
• While horizontal lap siding would be preferable, the proposed board & batten
siding is acceptable.
• The DRC noted that while the proposed building mass was rather "boxey"
and unarticulated, the simplicity would reduce the visual impact of the
structure. The DRC recommended the project architect consider wrapping
the proposed trellised cover around the south elevation and southeast
building corner to add addition interest and "break-up" the continuous
monotony of the wall plane.
• The proposed clearstory windows above the lower windows are awkward and
should be reconsidered. The project architect noted the objective was to
allow as much natural light opportunity as possible to reduce energy
consumption. The DRC concurred with the energy-saving objective, but
noted that the building's exterior appearance and design needed to also be
considered.
• The main building entry could be better accented by making the entry
PC Meeting Minutes 10 September 28, 2010
support columns full -height stone which would add mass and visual
importance to the entry.
• Instead of building -mounted sconce lighting, the architect was encouraged to
incorporate accent lighting, perhaps ground -mounted, that would provide a
more muted and less stark illumination.
• The proposed landscaping is too tightly confined to the immediate vicinity of
the proposed clubhouse building and needs to be expanded beyond the
immediate project limit and "loosened." Landscape mass should also be
added along San Juan Creek Road to visually buffer the building.
• Consider planting riparian vegetation along the pond edge to create a more
natural appearance. The turf extending to the water's edge creates a sterile
and un -natural appearance.
• The DRC discussed the proposed row of dwarf orange trees and concluded
that because they were limited in area, they were deemed acceptable to the
overall palette.
• The DRC engaged in an extended discussion regarding the access drive,
especially the "loop" drive to the front (west elevation) of the facility. The
applicant noted that they needed to meet OCFA requirements for fire
apparatus access. The DRC advised that was fine, but perhaps an
alternative surface treatment could be used to reduce the expanse of sterile
drive area at the entry which would increase opportunities for landscaping.
• The DRC concluded that the proposed parking should be designed and
managed to accommodate not only golf tournament events, but allow,
special event and parties unrelated to the golf course/clubhouse use
Commission Questions
Commissioner Williams expressed on the landscaping, lighting, and lack of detailing
in the architecture. Not part of the conditions and should be added.
Commissioner Tatarian stated Conditions # 20 & 21, need to be revised to be
submitted "prior to the issuance of a building permit" rather than prior to the
issuance to the Certificate of Occupancy.
Commissioner Tatarian asked where the spill over parking go for the big event that
may take place once a year. Mr. Kirk answered the golf course across the street.
Commissioner Tatarian inquired if the people would have to cross the street. Mr.
Kirk answered that the people would need to cross the street. The DAB had talked
about a golf cart shuttle or valet.
Commissioner Williams commented the landscape architecture is lacking landscape
plans.
Commissioner Williams commented the Planning Commission is approving and the
DRC has made comments.
PC Meeting Minutes 11 September 28, 2010
Applicant Presentation
Dan Friess, San Juan Hills Golf Course, made the applicant presentation and
addressed the following topics - In 2004 northern portion of the golf course was
approved for a 12,000 sf. car storage facility and 13,000 s.f. two-story Club house,
but the project was abandoned three years ago. It is a drastic reduction in size and
scope from the 2004 approval. He read all the Design Review Committee redlines,
not bubbled on the plans butt they were incorporated. He stated that he was
primarily concerned with condition of approval # 22.
Commissioner Tatarian asked the applicant what the seating capacity is to have a
wedding reception. The applicant answered the facility would seat 250 for wedding,
depending on seating layout
Mr. Kirk suggested with respect to condition of approval #22 and some design detail
issues that this project be continued for consideration to the next Planning
Commission meeting, so that the details can be worked out.
Public Hearing
Chairman Cohen opened the public hearing and closed the public hearing. No
public testimony.
Commission Discussion
Commissioner Williams agreed to continue this project. Also stated the Engineering
Department needs to look at Condition #22.
Commissioner Kerr concurred with Commissioner Williams.
Vice Chair Ratcliffe stated that valet parking in the conditions of approval might be
useful.
Commissioner Mocalis concurred with Commissioner Williams.
Commissioner Neely disagreed with the other Commissioners. He stated this
project doesn't merit a continuance. PC is not the forum for going into the all the
necessary levels of details, the Design Review Committee performs this. He had no
fundamental disagreement on the building placement or building massing. Also
unclear what Condition #22 means.
Commissioner Tatarian stated that he supports the project and supports the
continuance only because of Condition #22. This needs to be clarified before it
moves forward.
Chairman Cohen stated the Planning Commission is not the place to modify the
design that is for the Design Review Committee to do. He also stated that condition
# 22 needs to be clarified. He also stated that the parking is another concern that
PC Meeting Minutes 12 September 28, 2010
needs to be addressed in a worst case scenario if there was a banquet for 150
people. Not many places for parking or parking options. Maybe explore shared
agreement with what is in the vicinity. This needs to be determined before as
opposed to after the project is build out.
Commissioner Kerr stated the noise should not be addressed after the fact.
Requested conditions state the noise level cannot exceed a certain level. Mr. Kirk
stated that it is in condition #6.
Chairman Cohen inquired if live entertainment will require a CUP. Mr. Kirk
answered only for alcohol sale.
Commissioner Mocalis stated that condition of approval # 22 needs to be clarified.
Commissioner Tatarian asked if traffic is controlled with a light or signage.
Commissioner Tatarian stated his concern on the safety of people on the road when
people are driving 55- 60 mph.
Commissioner Williams stated that this needs to be continued because he does not
see recommended plan corrections. The applicant thought the corrections were
made on the plans. Planning Commission cannot rule because the Design Review
Committee comments were not identified.
Commissioner Neely stated need to separate the architecture issue from the policy
issues
Commissioner Mocalis concurred with his colleagues.
Mr. Kirk stated due to the concerns and the issues the item be brought back to the
11/9 Planning Commission to continue consideration. He said this would allow
issues to be addressed.
Commissioner Williams stated that it would be appropriate to bring this project back
to the Design Review Committee.
