APPEAL
32. Appeal of Planninq Commission Conditions of Approval - Georqe
Alonqi.
Appeal of Conditions 13, 15, 17, 23, 25, 26, 29, 39, 42 and 43
for Residential Project 90-10.
City Manager Molendyk commented that based on feedback and
investigation, there are areas which should be reviewed
further. He suggested that Council consider a Study Session
to discuss those areas as well as other downtown and in-fill
concerns.
Mr. Alongi advised that he has no objection to a study
Session, but requested that the conditions not be forced until
that time and that they not hold up his project.
Community Development Director Gunderman advised that he has
not yet submitted the plans for checking. Mr. Alongi
clarified that he is ready to submit. Mr. Gunderman advised
that this would probably be a 2 to 3 week process. Mr. Alongi
expressed concern with submitting and then being required to
re-draw portions and resubmit.
-
Councilman Buck commented that based on the issues there
should not be substantial changes to the plans either way.
Mr. Alongi advised that particularly the landscaping
requirements would be cause to redraw the plans.
Council discussion ensued regarding the time factor and delays
PAGE SEVENTEEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 11, 1990
associated with the Study Session scheduling.
Councilman Buck suggested that a portion of the concerns could
be discussed this evening. He felt bonding for street, curb,
gutter and sidewalk improvements was an unnecessary condition
as the certificates of Occupancy are not issued until they
have been completed. He also felt the landscaping conditions
should be reviewed for the potential of parkways, etc.
Mayor Washburn suggested that they look specifically at this
project.
Mr. Alongi read the following portions of a letter dated
September 4, 1990 and detailed each item:
Condition 13 - This condition should be waived because there
is no city right of way in which to plant street trees. The
right of way consists of the concrete curb and the sidewalk.
Our property line occurs at the back of the sidewalk. All
landscaping shown occurs within our property lines and it is
our prerogative which trees we will plant on our residential
project. Should this condition be enforced, there will
actually be less trees than proposed on our landscape plan.
Condition 15 - We respectfully request to remove this
condition from the appeal. We shall comply with this
condition.
Condition 17 - We request not so much an appeal as a
clarification of the wording of this condition. The
"park-in-lieu fee" wording may be misconstrued to mean
automobile parking which we are sure does not apply to our
project.
Condition 20/22 - These conditions would seem to be redundant,
a duplication of time and effort. Obviously, the engineering
department and building departments will route the
construction drawings through the planning department for
their final approval. If the conditions are not met a permit
will not be issued. If they are met then they have certainly
been "acknowledged". Please waive either condition 20 or 22
or both.
Condition 23 - We request waiver of this condition because the
City of Lake Elsinore has no formal Landscape design
guidelines neither inside nor outside of the right of way.
This means that the landscape requirements are purely
subjective. Given this background, our landscape drawings are
as good as or better than the landscape consultants
recommendations.
Condition 23a. - We take strong exception to the requirement
of bonds for landscaping work done on private property and
request that this condition be waived. The bonds are a
redundant means of ensuring that the landscape work is
installed. The City Inspector can and will withhold the
certificate of Occupancy until the landscaping is completed.
In our opinion, the bonds will discourage landscaping by
reducing the quantity and quality of the landscaping because
the dollars normally spent for landscaping would go to secure
bonds in~tead. If this work were in the right of way, it
would be a different matter. In the area of our project the
lighting and landscape assessment should cover maintenance of
landscaping in the right of way. The material and labor bond
could even be justified for a large commercial project with an
absentee owner, however some latitude must be given to the
local owner to take some pride and responsibility for
PAGE EIGHTEEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 11, 1990
maintaining his landscape.
Condition 25 - We request that this condition be waived
because it is simply too broad and general a condition to
make. Certainly a tenant should be allowed to store a
barbeque on his patio. The enclosure which is required to
define private open space for each unit is meant to screen
tenant's outdoor storage. If there are other concerns
regarding outdoor storage then they should be addressed
specifically.
Condition 26 - This condition should be waived because it is a
misinterpretation of Section l7.l4.l20A of the City's Zoning
Ordinance. The Ordinance clearly indicates that trash
enclosures are required for multi-family projects of eight or
more dwelling units. Our project consists of three buildings
on three separate lots; two triplexes and one duplex. No one
lot has more than three units on it so Section l7.l4.l20A does
not apply.
'!f6"
Condition 28 - We have entered into an agreement, for a value
of consideration, to turn over all water rights to all lots
involved to the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District and
the Elsinore Water District. Please waive this condition.
Condition 39 - We request that this condition be waived
because the Riverside County Fire Department will not respond
regarding this project since there are not enough units
involved per lot.
Condition 42 - We take extreme exception to this condition
because the City of Lake Elsinore has no ordinance nor
resolution in place to collect such funds. There is an
assessment district which should be funding signs of the type
described in the condition.
...,.
Condition 43 - We request that this condition be waived for
several reasons. As a point of clarification we would exclude
from this discussion any work done on the corner of Langstaff
and Pottery because it is private property until it is deeded
to the City. As to the off-site improvements the Bonds
conditioned are simply not necessary as a means to insure the
completion of the work. The work in the right of way is for a
residential project and the City inspectors can and will
withhold the Certificate of Occupancy until the off-site work
is completed. The bonds simply drive up the cost of
construction and are redundant in as a means of completing the
work. The certificate of completion is the correct means to
insure completion of off-site improvements.
In summary, the Planning Commission, City Council and Building
Department should be concerned for the health and safety of
the public, first and foremost, and should be responsible to
keep the cost of building housing from escalating beyond the
pUblic's ability to acquire it. Many of the conditions of
approval that we have appealed have a financial impact on our
project because they are redundant, unnecessary, or because
they have been misapplied to our project.
Respectfully submitted,
....
George Alongi, A & A Investments
Council discussion ensued regarding each condition and its
applicability.
Mr. Alongi requested continuance of his appeal until after the
PAGE NINETEEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 11, 1990
proposed Study Session.
MOVED BY DOMINGUEZ, SECONDED BY WINKLER TO CONTINUE THIS REQUEST.
Mayor Washburn expressed concern with this motion and
recommended that action be taken tonight.
Councilman Winkler commented that he has concerns with
conditions 23a, 25 and 43 and stressed the point that the
applicant is taking the gamble with regard to the outcome of
the Study Session.
Mr. Alongi confirmed that he would prefer to continue to allow
for further consideration of the conditions.
