DESIGN REVIEW BOARD MINUTES
NOVEMBER 23, 1982
1. CASE NO. 165 C (CONTINUED)
Mr. Gregory commented on the landscaping as follows:
1. Fountain grass grows to four feet in height, is
quite invasive and could result in problems in this
area.
2. The layout of other materials lacked imagination.
3. Spanish broom and common wormwood are not used
often in the desert.
4. If the landscaping is to be drought tolerant then
a drip irrigation system would be adequate.
5. If a conventional irrigation system is to be used
then it should be down -sized from IYP to approximately
3/4 inches and the "pop-up" heads replaced with
"bubbler" type heads.
In conclusion it was felt that a redesign of the landscape plan
and irrigation plan would be appropriate.
On a motion by Mr. Leung, seconded by Mr. Gregory, the
application was referred back to the applicant for a restudy of
the building elevations and resubmittal of the revised
landscape and irrigation plans.
Motion carried unanimously 4-0.
III. DISCUSSION ITEMS:
I. CASE NO: 154 C
APPLICANT (AND ADDRESS): 7-ELEVEN STORE
NATURE OF PROJECT/APPROVAL SOUGHT: Request for
approval of a roof over the storage area.
LOCATION: 73-800 Highway III
ZONE: C-1
Mr. Smith indicated that the storage section at the rear of the
building is enclosed on the top by a chain link fence. They are
requesting that they be allowed to build a roof over that area
to keep the rain out.
Mr. Gregory asked if this change would affect the parking
requirements.
Mr. Sawa replied that they would still have enough parking to
meet the code requirements.
On a motion by Mr. Gregory, seconded by Mr. Cook, the board
granted approval of the roof installation subject to the top of
the new roof being no higher than the existing enclosure walls.
Motion carried 3-0-1 (Mr. Leung abstained).

Motion carried 5-0-1. Mr. Leung abstained.
2. CASE NO: 232 MF - MICHAEL GILANO - 2772 Main Street, Irvine, CA
92714, THOMAS MAURER, A.I.A., 206 W. Wilshire Avenue, Fullerton, CA
92632 and ADAMS, STREETER & WOOLSEY, CIVIL ENGINEERS, INC.,
17981 Skypark Circle, Suite M, Irvine, CA 92714. Mr. Thomas Maurer was
present to represent the applicant.
Approval Sought/Location: Final approval of plans for 13 unit residential
condominiums and recreational facilities located at Ryway Place, 250 Feet
north of Grapevine Street.
Mr. Sawa reviewed the staff report indicating that the Board had granted
preliminary approval to this application at its February 23rd, 1982, meeting
subject to a series of conditions contained in the staff report dated February
23, 1982. He added that Conditions 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 15
had been fulfilled but that Conditions 5, 6, 14 and 16 had not yet been
addressed on the plans.
Mr. Maurer presented Staff and the Board with a letter indicating that they
would install a wrought iron fence on top of the retaining wall adjacent to
the south property line where the wall will exceed 30" in height (Condition
6) and that they would color the north side of the northern perimeter wall to
match the exterior color of the property owners homes (Condition 14). The
applicant indicated that he had with him the plans from the Sanitation
District (Condition 5). Mr. Maurer felt that skylights with a mirror finish
would be obtrusive, that if possible he would like them to be dual glazed
with the outer surface being solar bronze. He added that solar bronze would
be used on the windows on the west side too.
On a motion by Mr. Barton, seconded by Ms. Jackson, the Board granted
final approval of the plans subject to Condition No. 16 being changed to
show the skylights as being "Solar Bronze" instead of "Mirror Finish".
Motion carried unanimously 6-0.
3. CASE NO: 165 C - BRAXTON, DENNIS - CREATIVE DESIGNS, 21,855 South
Avalon, Suite 8, Carson, CA 90745.
roval Sought/Location: Preliminary and final approval of plans for a two
story office retail building at the southeast corner of Shadow Hills Road and
Frontage Road.
Mr. Diaz reviewed the staff report indicating that in terms of the plot plan,
Staff was concerned with the parking layout to the rear. That the property
line to the south requires a 10 foot wide landscape buffer area and that the
southernly parking aisle is a dead-end parking area which could cause a
problem, this could be resolved by moving the entire building to face north.
He indicated that Staff had completed another plot plan for submittal
utilizing the building and placing it at the corner of the property which
would be able to attend the 31 parking spaces as desired and which would
eliminate the dead-end parking situation. He added that this plan would call
for some redesign of the building in terms of the elevations.
Ms. Jackson felt that if the building were turned around it would create
solar problems which would call for redesign of the building.

Mr. Smith indicated that there had been some discussion at the Design
Review Board Meeting of August 11, 1981, regarding a monument sign that
the applicant wanted to install at the southwest corner of the property; he
informed the Board that this had since been deleted from the proposal. He
also stated that the final plans were substantially the same as those given
preliminary approval, with one change involving the location of a door on
the north elevation.
The Municipal Code requires the proposed retaining wall at the northwest
corner of the property be a minimum of 25 feet back from the intersection
in order to provide visibility. A condition to this effect was advised.

Mr. Sawa expressed concern over the retaining walls in the areas adjacent to

these walls were near a public street a minimum 36 inch high decorative
guardrail should be provided for safety, regardless of whether they were
required by Building Codes. Mr. Maurer replied that a guardrail will be
provided.

LOCATION: Northeast corner of Palm Desert Drive and San Luis Rey.
ZONE: C-1 - S.P.
DISCUSSION:
The Board granted preliminary approval of this application at its August 11, 1981,
meeting. At that time the site plan and elevations were found to be acceptable. There was
some discussion regarding a monument sign to be installed at the southwest corner of the
property. The monument sign is not included as a part of the final plans.
The final plans are substantially the same as the plans given preliminary approval. One
change involves the location of a loading door on the north elevation. This door was not
part of the preliminary plans. A problem with the final plans concerns the proposed
retaining wall at the northwest corner of the property. The Municipal Code requires walls
of this type to be a minimum of 25' back from the intersection to provide adequate
visibility. The applicant's architect has been advised of this problem and will be working
on same.
The Board should review the final plans and determine acceptablity.
Should the Board decide to grant final approval of the plans, Staff would suggest that it be

CASE NO.154 C - SOUTHLAND CORPORATION and BERNARD LEUNG, Applicants -
Preliminary approval of plans for a 4800 square foot retail commercial
building.
Mr. Smith reviewed the staff report and indicated that Staff had some
concern with the proposed driveway access onto San Luis Rey because it
is so close (30 feet) to the intersection of Palm Desert Drive and San
Luis Rey. Two possible alternative site plans were presented which would
not require the San Luis Rey access driveway.
The Board was of the opinion that because Palm Desert Drive is a one way
street westbound, access to the site from San Luis Rey is essential.
Mr. Leung indicated that he would like to discuss the signs for the build-
ing in order to have some idea as to what might be put up. There was some
discussion regarding having a monument sign in addition to two wall signs.
Mr. Smith indicated that if they decide to do this, they would have to go
through a Variance procedure in order to approve it.
On a motion by Holden, seconded by Barton, the preliminary plans for the
4800 square foot retail commercial building was approved, with the signs
to be reviewed at a later date.

CASE NO. 154 C
APPLICANT (AND ADDRESS) SOUTHLAND CORP. (16069 Shoemaker Ave., Cerritos
CA 90701) & BERNARD LEUNG (73-960 E1 Paseo, Palm Desert)
NATURE OF PROJECT/APPROVAL SOUGHT Preliminary approval of plans
for a 4800 square foot retail commercial building
LOCATION northeast corner Palm Desert Drive & San Luis Rey
ZONE C-1, S.P.
Site Plan: The proposal is to construct a 4800 square foot retail commercial building
facing on and setting back 85 feet from Palm Desert Drive, with parking for 23 vehicles
in front of the building. The loading area is provided at the rear with access from
Alessandro. Driveway access to the parking lot is provided from both Palm Desert Dr.
and San Luis Rey.
Staff has concerns with the site proposed plan. In order that a dead-end parking lot
is not created the applicant has provided an access onto San Luis Rey. The City
Engineer has reviewed this plan and expressed concern that an access point would
be located so close to the intersection of San Luis Rey and Palm Desert Drive (some
30 feet). Deletion of the access to San Luis Rey would create an undesirable parking
layout. Staft would suggest that the Board consider requesting revision of the site
plan by turning the building 90 degrees and face it onto San Luis Rey. Driveways
from Palm Desert Drive and Alessandro should only be required. Alternatively, the
applicant could consider moving the building further back on the lot and deleting the
loading area. The increased area could then be used to create a turn -around area in
the parking lot.
Landscaping: The landscaping areas shown on the plans conform to the 15% requirement.
e T h Tandscape area is deficient in that 1/3 of the landscaping is not distributed in
the interior of the parking area. The proposed street trees, 10 gallon yellow oleanders
will need to be increased in size to minimum 24 inch box as required by adopted devel-
opment standard. The Board should review the landscape plan to determine acceptability.
Elevations: The proposed building is the typical 7-11--Chief Auto Parts building.
The walls are to be cement plaster with a red mission tile mansard roof.
Signs: Although a formal sign application has not been submitted the plans do indicate
that two wall mounted signs (2' x 12' each) are proposed facing onto Highway 111. In
addition, an 8' x 14' combo pole sign is noted as desirable at the corner of the
property at Palm Desert Drive and San Luis Rey. The Municipal Code does not permit
both wall and freestanding signs for this building. Should the applicant desire to
pursue a pole sign, a variance request would be necessary.
The Board may wish to comment on the signs at this time or may choose to wait until
the formal application is received.
Analysis: Considering the site plan problems as outlined above staff is reluctant
to recommend that the Board grant preliminary approval at this time. The Board
should review the plans to determine acceptability.
continued..
Should the Board decide to grant preliminary plan approval then it should be subject
to the following conditions:
Construction plans shall be submitted for approval to the City Fire Marshal
prior to issuance of building permits. All conditions shall be made a part
of construction and no certificate of occupancy shall be issued until completed.
Final construction drawings, including a final landscaping, grading, lighting,
amenities, trash storage, walkway layout, irrigation plans and sign program
shall be submitted to the Design Review Board. No final inspection or occu-
pancy permit shall be given by the Department of Environmental Services to
this project until the aforementioned approved plans and construction shall
have been completed.
