structures, objects, sites, districts, and archaeological resources citywide.
• Policy 1.3: Provide long term assurance that potential and listed historic resources will be
used, maintained, and rehabilitated in conformance with Secretary of the Interior's
Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving,
� Rehabilitating, Restoring and Preserving Historic Buildings (Secretary's Standards).
ITEM 2 09/11/18
7. DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
The Nutwood Tract, also known at Nutwood Place, is a neighborhood consisting of approximately
six blocks located just north of Hart Park in Old Towne Orange. The Nutwood Tract is
characterized by a mix of General Plan and zoning designations that support a variety of residential
development types ranging from single family,to duplex,to multi-family. Over the years,this land
use policy has resulted in the conversion of some historic single-family residences to multi-unit
properties.
At the July 11, 2017 meeting of the City Council, the Planning Division was given direction to
pr.epare a memorandum regarding potential re-zoning of the Nutwood Tract, with the goal of
preserving the historic single-family housing stock of the Nutwood Tract. Staff analysis concluded
that development conditions in the tract are complex, and opportunities for making General Plan
and zoning changes, that would function to protect the single-family development in the area
without creating non-conforming properties, are limited. However, staff identified the 500-block
of S.Orange Street and S.Grand Street between E.La Veta Avenue and E.River Avenue as having
the greatest concentration of historic single-family homes with a Low Density Residential (2-6
units/acre) (LDR) General Plan designation,making it appropriate for a targeted zone change.
Therefore, Staff is proposing to rezone properties on the 500-block of S. Orange Street and S.
Grand Street between E. La Veta Avenue and E. River Avenue from Duplex Residential (R-2-6)
to Single Family Residential (R-1-6). The R-1-6 zoning will establish consistency with the
General Plan. The property located at 503 S. Glassell Street is also proposed to be rezoned from
General Business (C-2) to Office Professional (OP). The property presently has a General Plan
designation of Neighborhood Off`ice Professional (NOP). The zoning that is consistent with the
NOP designation is Office Professional (OP).
In total, 13 properties will be affected by the proposed zone change:
Rezone from General Business (G2) to Office Professional (OP)
• 503 S. Glassell Street
Rezone froni Duplex Residential(R-2-6) to Single Fainily Residential (R-1-6)
• 222 E. La Veta Avenue
• 226 E. La Veta Avenue
• 515 S. Orange Street
• 525 S. Orange Street
• 535 S. Orange Street
• 545 S. Orange Street
• 205 E. River Avenue
• 213 E. River Avenue
• 225 E. River Avenue
• 526 S. Grand Street
• 536 S. Grand Street
• 552 S. Grand Street
ITEM 3 09/11/18
Thus,Zone Change No. 1288-18 establishes General Plan and Zoning consistency for the affected
properties. There is not a development project associated with this Zone Change.
Iiistoric Status
11 of 13 properties within the proposed rezone area are designated as historic resources. Three
properties also have active Mills Act contracts.
On-the-Ground Uses in Relation to Zoning
The proposed re-zoning of properties in the area affected by the Zone Change reflects long-
standing on-the-ground conditions. According to the Orange County Assessor tax records and
City of Orange building permit records all residential properties affected by the proposed zone
change are single family residences. That said,properties may have accessory units, guesthouses,
or other similar units existing that are not reflected in these records.The property at 503 S. Glassell
Street is a professional office. The Zone Change will not cause existing permitted development to
become legal non-conforming due to the compatibility between existing uses and proposed zoning.
Public Outreach
At the beginning of the review process for the project John Aust, owner of 225 E. River Avenue,
contacted planning staff to discuss his concerns regarding the potential zone change.
On April 25, 2018 and May 10, 2018 the Planning Division held information sessions for all
residential property owners affected by the potential zone. No property owners attended the
meeting on Apri125th. One property owner attended the meeting on May lOth
On May 7, 2018 staff mailed a letter regarding the zone change directly to the property owner of
the office at 503 S. Glassell Street. Offering the opportunity to meet or discuss the change over the
phone.No response was received.
In total, three residential property owners contacted staff with comments regarding the proposed
zone change after the two public information sessions. All three property owners, including the
individual who attended the information session on May 10�h,were in support of the proposed zone
change as being compatible with the single family character of the neighborhood.
Public Comment at Planning Commission
At the June 4, 2018 Planning Commission hearing, four residents spoke in favor of, and three
residents spoke in opposition to,the proposed zone change.Minutes from the meeting are included
as Attachment 3 of this report.
Residents in favor of the zone change expressed a desire to maintain the single-family residential
character of the neighborhood and expressed interest in further rezoning to R-1 in the Nutwood
Tract.
ITEM 4 09/11/18
Residents who spoke in opposition to the project felt the zone change would cause a decrease in
property values and that the properties may be developed with multiple units not reflected in city
or county records.
Additional Information—552 S. Grand Street
Subsequent to the Planning Commission hearing staff received additional property information
from Bonnie Byruin, owner of 552 S. Grand Street. Microfiche building permit records provided
by Ms. Bynun suggest that between 1971-1972 an �530 square foot "rumpus room" was
constructed on the property. This rumpus room, which included a bathroom, was later altered in
1973 to include kitchen facilities. Though these records do not conclusively state that the use of
the rumpus room was converted to a dwelling unit, it is the opinion of staff that enough records
exist for the property owner to pursue recognition of a second dwelling unit with the Orange
County Assessor.
Staff recommends that the properiy be considered for rezoning from R-2-6 to R-1-6. Existing
development on the property is nonconforming with the setback and parking standards for a duplex
iri the R-2-6 zone. Orange Municipal Code Section 17.38 significantly limits expansion of .
nonconforming development unless parking can be brought into compliance with requirements of
the parking code. Rezoning of the property to R-1-6 would not further limit the property owner's
ability to alter the existing second dwelling unit in the future, and would potentially improve the
noncomforming status of the property if the property were to be categorized as a single family
home with an Accessory Dwelling Unit(ADU) rather than a duplex.
Additional Information—225 E.River Avenue
At the June 4, 2018 Planning Commission hearing John and Kitty Aust, owners of 225 E. River
Avenue, spoke in opposition to the proposed zone change. A comment letter, received the same
day of the hearing, is included as Attachment 4. Regarding their specific property, the Austs
objected on the grounds that rezoning from R-2-6 to R-1-6 would preclude them from constructing
a second unit greater than 640 square feet in size in the future. They also stated concerns that a
zone change would diminish the value of their property as a large lot with R-2 zoning.
Staff recommends that the property be considered for rezoning from R-2-6 to R-1-6. Existing
single-family development on the property conforms with the requirements of the R-1-6 zone. The
property is also a contributing historic resource within the Old Towne Historic District with a Mills
Act contract, which is the type of development intended to be protected by the proposed zone
change. Staff cannot confirm whether a second unit larger than a 640 square foot Accessory
Dwelling Unit (ADU) could be constructed on the property while meeting the development and
parking standards as required in the Orange Municipal Code.
Staff Recommendation and City Council Determination
Staff recommends the zone change of the above properties be approved as described in Ordinance
09-18. However, City Council has discretion to modify the boundary of the rezone area.
Substantial modification of the proposed zone change by the City Council which was not
previously considered by the Planning Commission shall be referred back to the Planning
Commission for report and recommendation.

SUBJECT
PUBLIC HEARING: Zone Change No. 1288-18 to rezone select properties in the Nutwood Tract
of the Old Towne Historic District to Single Family Residential (R-1-6) and office Professional
(O-P) to establish consistency with the Low Density Residential and Neighborhood Office
Professional General Plan land use designations in accordance with state law. The subj ect Zone
Change addresses properties presently developed with single family residences on the 500 block
of S. Orange Street and S. Grand Street between E. La Veta Avenue and E. River Avenue and a
professional office at 503 S. Glassell Street.
SUMMARY
The City of Orange is proposing to rezone properties on the 500 block of S. Orange Street and S.
Grand Street between E. La Veta Avenue and E. River Avenue from Duplex Residential (R-2-6)
to Single Family Residential (R-1-6). These properties have a General Plan land use designation
of Low Density Residential (2-6 units/acre) (LDR). The zoning that is consistent with the LDR
designation is Single Family Residential. The property located at 503 S. Glassell Street is also
proposed to be rezoned from General Business (C-2) to Office Professional (O-P). The property
presently has a General Plan designation of Neighborhood Office Professional(NOP): The zoning
that is consistent with the NOP designation is Office Professional (OP). Both State planning law
and Program I-1 of the General Plan Implementation Plan require consistency between General
Plan and zoning designations.

PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Nutwood.Tract of the Old Towne Historic District is characterized by an assortment of
property types,General Plan designations, and zoning classifications(Attachments 2 and 3). Over
time,the community and City Council members have expressed a desire to bring the General Plan
land use designations and associated zoning into alignment with on-the-ground conditions,and the �
City's objectives to preserve the historic neighborhood character of Old Towne,particularly single
family residential neighborhoods. In the Nutwood Tract, current General Plan and Zoning
classifications support the development of duplex and multi-family residential properties.
In August 2017, the Planning Division investigated potential re-zoning of the Nutwood Tract
following City Council direction. The only block of the tract well-suited for re-zoning without the
need for a General Plan Amendment is the 500 block of S. Orange Street and S. Grand Street
between E. La Veta Avenue and E. River Avenue due to the fact that this block has a LDR General
Plan designation and a relatively intact building stock of single family residences. However,these
properties are currently zoned R-2-6 which is inconsistent with the LDR General Plan designation.
In total 13 properties would be affected by the proposed R-1-6 zone change on the 500-block of
S. Orange Street and S. Grand Street between E. La Veta Avenue and E. River Avenue.
In addition to the residential block, the commercial property located at 503 S. Glassell Street
(southeast corner of Glassell Street and LaVeta Avenue) has a General Plan Designation of NOP
but C-2 zoning. The use is a low-intensity professional office that is well-suited for a converted
historic residence. The C-2 zoning is inconsistent with the NOP designation, and not entirely
appropriate for the existing use and historic development context.
In accordance with State planning law (Government Code §65860), the City must establish
consistency between the General Plan and its zoning. Furthermore, Implementation Program I-1
of the General Plan Implementation Plan calls for consistency between General Plan and zoning
designations to be established.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A portion of the Nutwood Tract has conflicting General Plan land use designations that would be
reconciled by the Zone Change. The City of Orange is proposing to rezone properties on the 500-
block of S. Orange Street and S. Grand Street between E. La Veta Avenue and E. River Avenue
from R-2-6 to R-1-6. These properties have a General Plan land use designation of LDR. The
zoning that is consistent with the LDR designation is Single Family Residential (R-1).
The property located at 503 S. Glassell Street is also proposed to re-zoned from C-2 to O-P. The
property presently has a General Plan designation of NOP. The zoning that is consistent with the
NOP designation is OP.

APPLICATION(S) REQUESTED/REQUIRED FINDINGS
The request involves a Zone Change/Ordinance Amendment. Zone Change No. 1288-18 will
establish� consistency between the General Plan land use designations and property zoning
classifications on the subject properties.
Required Findings: There are no required findings for an Ordinance Amendment or Zone
Change since it is considered a legislative action. However, OMC Section 17.10.020
requires that when the Planning Commission makes a recommendation to the City Council,
the Planning Commission include in its decision: 1) the reasons for the recommendation;
2)the relationship of the proposed amendment to the General Plan and applicable Specific
Plans; and 3) the environmental determination. These three items are addressed in the
Planning Commission Resolution. By adopting the Resolution, the Planning Commission
will have complied with this Code provision.
ANALYSIS/STATEMENT OF THE ISSUES
Issue 1: On-the-Ground Conditions
Residential Properties
Of the 14 parcels located on the subj ect residential block,two are developed as duplexes according
to City records. Additionally,all but two of the properties are developed with contributing historic
residences. Three of the properties also participate in the Mills'Act Program. Maps depicting
historic status and Mills Act contracts are provided as Attachments 4 and 5, respectively.
The two properties developed with duplexes would become legal non-conforming with the change
in zoning to R-1.
Commercial Property
The commercial_ properiy involved in the proposed Zone Change is a contributing historic
residential structure converted to professional office use. The suggested change in zoning from
C-2 to O-P will not affect the legal status of the use of the property. The change in zoning would
bring the property into alignment with the type of low-intensity office activity that is most
compatible with the abutting residential development.
Thus,Zone Change No. 1288-18 establishes General Plan and Zoning consistency for the affected
properties. Additionally, the proposed re-zoning of properties in the area affected by the Zone
Change reflects long-standing on-the-ground conditions. There is not a development project
associated with this Zone Change.
Planning Commission Staff Report
June 4, 2018
Page 5
Issue 2: Public Comment
Staff held two property owner information sessions and mailed notices to both residential and
commercial property owners prior to sending out regular notification of the Planning Commission
public hearing, as described in the "Public Notice" section of this report.
The meetings were intended to allow City staff to present information on how a change in zoning
could affect a property and get property owner feedback on the proposal. No property owners
attended the meeting on April 25th. One property owner attended the meeting on May lOth who
supports the Zone Change. Staff also received phone calls from two additional property owners
expressing support for the Zone Change.
On May 7, 2018 staff mailed a letter directly to the property owner of the office at 503 S. Glassell
Street. The letter provided information on the intent of the proposed Zone Change and offered to
set up an individual meeting or phone ca11 to receive any comments or answer questions. No
. response was received at the time of the publication of this staff report.
ADVISORY BOARD RECOMMENDATION
The proposed Zone Change was not reviewed by either the Staff Review Committee or the Design
Review Committee due to the fact that it does not involve a specific development project, and
implements a land use designation that was discussed extensively by the Planning Commission
and City Council during General Plan development and adoption.

NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission recommends the
City Council approve the subject Ordinance and Zone Change, as depicted on maps included in
Attachment A to this Resolution, attached hereto, based on the following findings:
SECTION 1- FINDING
The Zone Change implements the General Plan Land Use Element and Cultural Resources and
Historic Preservation Element by establishing Single Family Residential (R-1-6) zoning in a
portion of the Old Towne Historic District that is characterized by a preponderance of single family
residences that are contributing resources to the Historic District. The re-zoning of these properties
supports the General Plan goals of preserving and protecting historic resources, and preserving
historic neighborhood character. Additionally, the re-zoning of commercial property to O-P also
supports these goals by ensuring that the nature of professional office use is compatible with the
abutti�g neighborhood. Furthermore, establishing consistency between the General Plan and
Zoning designations for the affected properties implements Program I-1 of the General Plan
' Implementation Plan.
SECTION 2-ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW

3. NEW HEARING:
3.1 ZONE CHANGE NO. 1288-18 NUTWOOD TRACT
The City of Orange is proposing to rezone properties on the 500 block of S. Orange Street and S.
Grand Street beriveen E.La Veta Avenue and E.River Avenue from Duplex Residential(R-2-6)
to Single Family Residential(R-1-6). These properties have a General Plan land use designation
of Low Density Residential (2-6 units/acre)(LDR). The zoning that is consistent with the LDR
designation is Single Family Residential. The property located at 503 S. Glassell Street is also
proposed to be rezoned from General Business(C-2)to Office Professional(O-P). The property
presently has a General Plan designation of Neighborhood Office Professional (NOP). The
zoning that is consistent with the NOP designation is Office Professional (OP). Both State
planning law and Program I-1 of the General Plan Implementation Plan require consistency
between General Plan and zoning designations.
LOCATION: NUTWOOD TRACT-503 S. GLASSELL& 500 BLOCK OF S. ORANGE STREET
AND S. GRAND STREET BETWEEN E. LA VETA AVENUE AND E. RIVER
AVENUE
NOTE:
Final Program Environmental Impact Report(EIR)No. 1815-09 for the Comprehensive City of
Orange General Plan Update was certified on March 9, 2010 and prepared in accordance with
the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA). The proposed activity is within the scope of
the previously approved General Plan and is adequately described in the previously certified
General Plan Program EIR for the purposes of CEQA.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Planning Commission Resolution No.PC 19-18 a Resolution of the Planning Commission
recommending the City Council approve Zone Change No. 1288-18 and adopt an ordinance
rezoning certain properties in the Nutwood Tract to single family residential (R-1-6) and office
professional (O-P) to establish consistency with the low density residential and neighborhood
office professional general plan land use designations in accordance with state law.
Kelly Ribuffo,Associate Planner provided an explanation of the project consistent with the staff report and noted
that the proposal was brought forth at the request of the City Council in order to bring the Nutwood Tract zoning
into conformance with General Plan designations in order to implement the General Plan,and as required by State
law.
Gary Sheatz, Senior Assistant City Attorney stated that oftentimes inconsistencies in other areas of the city are
addressed when people come in with a development project. Before they can proceed,as part of the development
process, a zone change is necessary. This tract was identified by City Council and they directed staff to make it
consistent per State law.
Commissioner Gladson noted the distinctive character and features of the Nutwood Tract and asked staff to provide
a review of its history and significance within Old Towne.
Ms. Ribuffo provided a history of the tract that was developed in the early 20th century. She stated the historic
stone monuments that mark the entrances to the neighborhood are part of the neighborhood's character and ties it
to Hart Park.

Commissioner Willits asked whether the zone change affect the historic district boundary or Mills Act program.
In response,Kelly Ribuffo stated the zone change will not have a direct impact on the Mills Act Program,nor will
the zone change affect the historic designations or its boundaries.
Chair Glasgow opened the public hearing.
Dan Slater; Jeff Frankel, representative for the Old Towne Preservation Association; Tony Trabuco of the 400
block S. Orange; and Lorna Deshane of 205 and 215 E.River,all spoke in support of the zone change and would
like to see the remainder of the Nutwood tract rezoned to R-1. Mr. Slater also suggested that rezoning be pursued
in the Cypress Barrio neighborhood.
John Aust and Kitty Juniper Aust, 225 E. River, spoke in opposition of the change and feel they were targeted
because of the large size of their property. They feel that the zone change would cause a decrease in property
values.They also believe that properties with multiple units have not been captured in the records.
Bonnie Byrom, 552 S. Grand,also spoke in opposition of the zone change. Her property has multiple units and is
shown as having only one in City records, and she agreed that proper records on the homes were needed. She
wants to maintain her right to rent her home.
Chair Glasgow closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Willits asked for clarification about why the number of units on properties conflicts with the
information presented in the staff report. He expressed concern about impacting property owners. Ms. Ribuffo
clarified that when staff conducted their initial assessment of the tract,they looked at the number of units on the
property, square footage that was noted in the assessor records, addresses that are reflected in City records, and
past and recent building permits. Staff would be happy to receive information from anyone who has more details
on the properties because they are limited to their records.
Commissioner Willits asked if the units mentioned in the public comment are legal nonconforming.
Mr. Sheatz, stated to be legal nonconforming, the City would need to determine that the units were legal when
built;therefore, staff need to determine when it was built.
Commissioner Correa asked staff why they are not making the zone change to all of the properties in the Nutwood
tract. ,
Ms. Ribuffo stated the 13 properties that have been identified as part of the zone change are being addressed now
because only a zone change is required in order to bring consistency between the General Plan designation and the
zoning.This particular zone change was coming at the request of the Council to address what can be changed more
easily now,without having to go through an 8 to 12 month General Plan Amendment process.
Commissioner Gladson asked whether staff could identify the parcels that would become legal non-conforming,
and clarified that she did not intend for possible illegal units to be investigated.
In response to Commissioner Gladson's question,Ms.RibufFo stated that based on City records available to staff,
those properties were illegal multi-family units and nobody is compelled to remove anything.
Ms.Pehoushek added that even if there are illegal units, staff will not actively go out and look for them.
Commissioners Correa, Gladson, Willits and Glasgow stated they support the zone change and noted that they
wished the entire tract could be addressed at one time.
A motion was made to adopt Planning Commission Resolution No. PC 19-18 titled a Resolution of the
Planning Commission recommending the City Council approve Zone Change No. 1288-18 and adopt an

Re: Zone Change No. 1288-18 Nutwood Track; 500 Block of S. Grand Street
Dear Commissioners:
We are the owners of the property located at 225 E.River Avenue. We agree that
preserving Orange's historic character is of upmost importance to the community. However,we
disagree with the proposed zoning change of the 500 Block of S. Grand Street("Proposed
Zoning") from Duplex Residential (R-2-6)to Single Family Residential (R-1-6), for the
following reasons:
1. The zoning change would disproportionately affect our use of our property,unlike
the other owners within the Proposed Zoning,Area. Our home at 225 E. River Avenue is the
only double-lot parcel within the block,with a unique configuration, on which is located what is
thought to be the oldest sycamore tree in Orange. The City of Orange has an easement for
maintenance of the tree.
The house on our property is configured so that the front of the house runs horizontally
across two lots in a manner that most likely will not allow for splitting the property into two
separate lots (we have not verified this). However,we currently have room at the back of the
property that allows us to establish a separate unit in accordance with the current historic design
of the house. Our intent has been to build an 800-1000 square foot dwelling in which we may
live when we are retired. The Proposed Zoning would lunit the number of square feet that we
could build to 640 square feet.
2. The Proposed Zoning is inconsistent with the properties surrounding our lot.
Within the Proposed Zoning,beside us to the east is a three-unit property with units over 800
square feet, and to our west is a two-unit property with a 600 square feet second unit. Directly
across the street from us outside of the Proposed Zoning to our south is a two unit property.�
1 These units most likely were established prior to the City permitting process and may
not show on the records. They will be additional non-conforming properties,however.
City of Orange Planning Commission
June 4,2018
Page 1 of 2 �
The multiple units in the southwest corner on La Veta and Grand were carved out of the
Proposed Zoning because they have two units. We, who have waited to add dwelling space,will
unfairly be precluded by the City from also adding a property allowable under the R-2
designation.
3. The Proposed Zoning is based on incomplete information. As discussed above,
the information about the homes in the Proposed Zoning area,which is contained in the
Memorandum of August 23,2017 to City Manager Rick Otto,is incorrect. Sine of the properties
marked as single-family residences have additional units that are larger than ADUs and
therefore, they too will be non-conforming causing a diminution in value to those property
owners.
4. We feel that we have been targeted in that our property appears to be the only
property that the Proposed Zoning will affect with regard to adding a dwelling unit. It appears
that there is only one other home in the area that does not already have an additional unit that
might be able to fit the proposed parameters. The other property(#222) is configured in a
manner that would still allow the property owner to build a larger dwelling on the property while
maintaining the current home as an ADU,
5. The Proposed Zoning will result in a diminution of value of our property. One of �
the selling points of the property was and is the R-2 zoning designation and the double lot. The
City of Orange will be reducing our property value with the Proposed Zoning.
We respectfully urge the Planning Commission to take these and other factors into
account and vote to recommend against accepting the Proposed Zoning.
Since ely, ,
