TENTATIVE TRACT 14848
APPLICANT: BEAZER HOMES CALIFORNIA, INC.
RECITALS:
After report thereon by the Planning Commission and after
due public hearings as required by law, and after receiving a
recommendation from the Planning commission, recommending, by
Resolution No. PC-53-93, that the subdivision
of property situated east of Prospect Avenue between Walnut Avenue
and Bond Avenue be approved, the city Council considered
Tentative Tract 14848 and determined that the recommendation of
the Planning commission should be upheld and Tentative Tract
14848 be approved. Subject property is more particularly
described on Exhibit "
A" attached.During the public hearing, the city Council found
the facts
as follows:1. The site is irregularly shaped and approximately 16
acres in size, located east of Prospect street between
Walnut Avenue and Bond Avenue (the site of the previously
approved Rock Creek Ranch single
family development).2. The applicant is requesting approval of a
Tentative Tract Map and Conditional Use Permit to allow the
development of the subject site with an 88 dwelling unit
Planned unit Development. The proposal includes the creation of
97 lots,of which 47 residential lots do not have direct access
to a
public street.Orange Municipal Code (OMC) Section 16.08.
010 permits Planning commission review of a Tentative Tract
Map subject to the requirements of the Subdivision Map Act and
Title 16 of the OMC. Also, OMC Section 17.66.040
requires approval of a Conditional Use Permit to create a
Planned Unit Development, and OMC Section 17.94.050.A
requires approval of a conditional use permit prior to creating
lots without public
street frontage.3. The subject site is designated by the city's
General Plan Land Use POlicy Map as Low Density Residential, 2
to 6 dwelling units per acre, and the site is
zoned R-1-6 Residential, Single Family, minimum lot
size
6,
4. The history of the City Council actions and past development
approvals related to this site are contained in the staff
report for Tentative Tract Map 14847/Conditional Use Permit
2030-
93.5. As of September 1, 1993, the subject site has been
graded level and street improvements have been completed
for Prospect Street, Gravier Street, Bond Avenue, and
Walnut Avenue. Also, a 6 foot high perimeter wall and
landscaping have been completed along Prospect Street and Bond
Avenue.6. Primary access to the site will be via Walnut Avenue,
which is defined by the City's Master Plan of streets and
Highways as a "Local" Street with an ultimate right-of-
way width of 60 feet. Walnut Avenue is fully improved
with one travel lane in each direction, sidewalks on both
sides,
and trees wells.7. The surrounding land uses include the
existing Rock Creek Ranch townhouses, and the proposed
condominium and attached single family developments
zoned R-3 (Residential,Multifamily) to the west, an
abandoned gravel quarry under County jurisdiction to the
north; single family residences zoned R-1-7 to the east,
and an elementary school and vacant land zoned R-1-
7
and MH (Mobile Home) respectively, to the south.8. The
applicant is proposing to develop a Planned
Unit Development consisting of 88 detached single family
residences, a communal recreational area, a gated entryway,and private streets.
Since the proposal is for a PUD, the
site plan establishes specific building setbacks for each proposed
floor

spaces The garage spaces will have a minimum interior
dimension of 20 feet by 20 feet while the parallel
on-street parking shall have a minimum length of 20
feet and minimum width of
8 feet.9. To create more usable side yard areas, the
tract map establishes 5 foot wide easement for open
space and recreational purposes along the side property
line and assigns the easement to the resident on the
adjacent parcel.There will be two types of easement, one in the
rear yard area that will combine the two 5 foot wide side
yard areas into a 10 foot wide open yard space, and the
other within the front setback area assigning
landscaping maintenance responsibilities of the 5 foot yard space behind
the garage to the adjacent residents who view the yard
area. The proposed residential structures assigned use of the
10 foot yard area have been designed with large windows
facing the 3 Reso
No.
easement area and structures without use of the area will
have high or view obscured (glass block) windows on that
side of their home.
10. Public access to the project will be via an unmanned gated
entryway onto Walnut Avenue. This entryway is designed to
have a car turnaround, two parking spaces, stacking for two
cars, and a directory outside the gate. The gated drive
will be bordered by sidewalks and landscaping areas.
Additional emergency access to the site is provided onto
Gravier street (proposed Lot # 97). The emergency access
drive will be 20 feet wide, have wrought fencing and gating,
and will be landscaped.
11. The internal access to the residences will be via a loop
private street with two cul-de-sacs. The
private streets will be 36 feet in width with on-street
parking on both sides. A sidewalk is provided on one side
of the street.12. The proposal includes a communal
recreational facility (Lot 89) located near the gated entry.
The recreational parcel is approximately 14,900 square feet in size
and will include a swimming pool,
Jacuzzi, and cabana.13. A homeowners association will be
established for the project. The Association will be
responsible for the maintenance of the private streets, the
perimeter walls and landscaping areas, the communal
recreational facility,
and patio fencing.14. The project's C,C&Rs will permit
building additions subject to conformance with building setbacks
noted above and architectural review by the
homeowners association. The C,C&Rs also propose to allow the
construction of unenclosed patio covers subject to
restrictions noted above.15. Trash pickup shall be
per individual unit.16. Development of the site will include the construction
of a 6 foot high masonry wall and planting
street trees along Walnut Avenue
and Gravier street.17. The project's public improvements are
limited to removing the existing public street entrance onto
Gravier street and installing the new approaches for the
gated entry and emergency access drive. otherwise,
all other public improvements
have been completed.18. The project boundaries exclude a residential
lot located at the southwest corner of Bond Avenue
and Gravier street.This parcel was created by Tentative Tract Map
13842 and was part of the previously approved
single family development for this project. The perimeter wall
and landscaping area Reso
on this parcel will be maintained by the new homeowner's
association.
19. Development of the subject site is not anticipated to
require the import or export of any soils.
20. The Planning Commission has three primary considerations
when reviewing this request for creating a planned unit
development (PUD):
A. Does the proposal conform Zoning Ordinance requirements
for creating a Planned unit Development? Applications
for a planned unit development is regulated by the
Orange Municipal Code Chapter 17.66, Planned Unit
Developments and Condominiums. The intent of Chapter
17.66 is to encourage more imaginative and efficient
residential projects than can be developed by strict
adherence to the Zoning Ordinance's development
standards, and to provide flexibility in developing a
site with unique topographic, physical, or
environmental features, by allowing for unit clustering
and variation from development standards. This Chapter
is also intended to enable a wider variety of housing
types and greater areas of open space by reducing the
amount of land need for public streets.
To achieve the purposes stated above, Chapter 17.66
establishes a limited number of development standards:
the maximum site density, the maximum site coverage,
and the off-street parking requirement The
applicable standards are based on the zoning classification of
the subject property, which in this case is R-
1-6. Below is a comparison of the code
requirements
and the

provided are within the parameters established by
Chapter 17.66.
Development standards not specified within Chapter
17.66, such as building setbacks, and recreation and
leisure area, are proposed by the developer and
determined by the Planning Commission and City Council
at the time a site plan is approved. The project's
proposed development standards are indicated in the
Project Description section of this report.
B. Is the project providing a superior living environment
than could be attained using conventional development
practices? In this particular case, a quick comparison
can be made between the proposal and the approved
project for the site which was designed in accordance
with the R-1-6 District's
development standards.PROPOSED TENTATIVE TRACT

driveways, and streets.
3. Smaller private yard areas per unit, however, to
compensate for the smaller yards, a communal
recreational area is provided.
4. The interior streets shall be private, therefore,
maintenance responsibility will be that of the
homeowners association and not the city's.
5. A gated and walled community that will have limited
interaction with the existing residential area to the
east of the site.
6. The entryway to the project is enhanced with
landscaping area.
7. The interior front street scape will be dominated with
residential structures and driveways due to the
proposal to reduce the front setback for some
structures from 20 feet to 10 feet and the narrower lot
dimensions.
8. The future homeowners will have additional long term
costs associated with the maintenance of the private
streets, perimeter landscaping area & walls, and
communal recreational area.
C. Is it appropriate to create lots less than 6,000 square
feet in a Single Family Residential Zoning District and
a Low Density Residential General Plan designation?
The proposed tentative tract map would subdivide the
site into 88 residential parcels, of which 55 parcels
would have a lot area less than the minimum required in
the R-I-6 (Residential, Single Family, minimum
lot size 6,000 square feet) and on a site designated
by the General Plan Land Use Map as Low Density.
There have been two circumstances under which lots
smaller than the minimum required by the base zone
have
been created:1. Projects designated by the General Plan
as Low Density Residential, 2 to 6 dwelling
units per acre, have been allowed to subdivide
property for detached single family use into parcels
less than the minimum required by the zoning
district, for the preservation of ridge lines or
slopes. In most cases, the sites were zoned R-
1-20 or R-I-40,and
the residential density for the
zoning district was maintained. However, level,developable pad areas
of 6,000 square feet were
generally maintained. The Baldwin Company's Rocking
Horse Ridge, the single family component of
the Crawford Hills Development and the
Broadmoor Estates are examples of these
developments. In each development, the creation of smaller lots
or pads preserved large slopes or
creek channels as permanent open space.2. Projects
designated by the General
Plan
Low/Medium Density Residential, 6 to 15 dwelling
units per acre, have been allowed to subdivide
property into parcels ranging in size from 3,500
to 4,800 square feet in size subject to providing
an enhanced living environment, containing
features such as communal recreational area,
perimeter and interior landscaping area, and
upgraded building and wall designs. The recently
approved Pacific Ridge developments in the
southridge Planned Community (located south of via
Escola) and the Inter American development in the
Santiago Hills Planned Community are examples of
this type of development. The City Council has
approved small lot subdivisions as an alternative
to condominium and town house developments allowed
by the base zone.
The project is not substantially similar to either of
these circumstances, since there are no significant
topographic features, nor is the subject site a
replacement for a multifamily condominium or town house
development.
Like other Low Density PUD's, the average lot size is
consistent with base zoning (approximately 6,100 square
feet) and the applicant is not requesting additional
density for the site.
The Planning Commission, when making the determination for
the proposal, must decide that the applicant's site plan,
with the reduced building setback, reduced lot sizes and
addition of a recreational area, creates a living
environment equal or better than a conventional development.
21. The Conditional Use Permit application includes a request to
allow the creation of 131 lots without direct access to a
public street. The intent of requiring a conditional use
permit is to allow for flexibility in subdivision design and
to ensure that all parcels to be created will have access to
public streets, including by private streets and drives. To
ensure that the project's proposed parcels will have
permanent access to public streets, the tentative tract map
includes proposed Lettered Lots "A" through "L" that contain
private streets and drives, and the recommended conditions
include that ingress/egress easements for all parcels will
be included with the tentative tract map.
22. The Design Review Board reviewed the proposal and
preliminarily approved the building elevations, building
materials, and landscaping plans.
23. The Environmental Review Board (ERB) reviewed the proposal
and had the following comments:
Reso No. 8278 8
A. The proposal does not require additional environmental
review since E~R 861 & SEIR 861 have already addressed
the environmental impacts of developing the subject
site with similar residences. Furthermore, the
mitigation measures applied to the previous projects
are included with the recommended conditions for the
present applications.
B. The numbered lots indicated on the tentative tract map
for the private streets shall be designated as lettered
lots.
C. The maintenance responsibility for the site's perimeter
landscaping shall be transferred from the city's
Community Services Department to the future homeowners
association. The transfer of maintenance
responsibility requires that the applicant repipe the
irrigation system to separate the street tree
irrigation from the perimeter landscaping area. The
city will continue to be responsible for maintenance of
the city trees along all the public streets.
D. To assure that in the future there shall be no
vehicular access onto Prospect street, a condition
includes that all access right onto Prospect Street
shall be assigned to the City of orange.
24. The applicant's justification for approval of his request
for a Planned Unit Development is that the PUD "allows a
greater diversity in dwelling types and sizes while
providing site planning opportunities not found in typical
medium density projects." Attached is a letter (Exhibit A)
from the applicant's representative that provide additional
details on justification for his request.
25. In order to justify the granting of a conditional use permit
for a condominium or planned unit development, OMC section
17.66.040 requires that the following findings be made:
1. That the proposal must conform to the General Plan in
terms of general location and general standards of
development.
2. That the proposal constitutes a residential environment
equal to, or better than, what might be accomplished
under traditional development practices.
3. That proper on-site traffic circulation and control
is designed into the plan to insure a level of
protection for fire suppression and police surveillance equal
to,or better than, standard development
practices.4. That the proposal constitutes a
well-organized harmonious plan consistent with the purpose
and intent 9 Reso
No.
of this chapter.
26. Orange Municipal Code section 17.92.020 lists the following
criteria for review of conditional use permits:
1. A conditional use permit should be granted upon sound
principles of land use and in response to services
required by the community.
2. A conditional use permit should not be granted if it
will cause deterioration of bordering land uses or
create special problems for the area in which it is
located.
3. A conditional use permit must be considered in
relationship to its effect on the community or
neighborhood plans for the area in which it is to be
located.
4. A conditional use permit, if granted, should be made
subject to those conditions necessary to preserve the
general welfare, not the individual welfare of any
particular applicant.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the
City of orange that Tentative Tract 14848 be approved for the
following reasons:
1. That the Tentative Tract map conforms to the City's General
Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
2. That the Tentative Tract map conforms to the procedures and
practices of the City's Subdivision Ordinance.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Tentative Tract 14848 be
