The property is an irregular rectangular shape totaling 22,757 square feet in area. The Planning Commission previously approved Conditional Use Permit No. 2002-025 on October 8, 2002 to construct eight attached residences, consisting of two buildings, two stories in height, with two existing residences remaining for a total of ten residential condominiums. The applicant did not proceed with the project in a timely manner and the Planning Commission approval became null and void. On November 9, 2005 the Planning Commission reviewed a proposal from the applicant for nine residences, three stories in height. The Planning Commission recommended that the project be reduced to two stories. On April 11, 2006 the Planning Commission reviewed and approved a revised proposal from the applicant for eight units, two stories in height, with attached two car garages for each unit. Although construction is near completion, the tentative tract map expired in April, 2008. The applicant is nearing a Final Inspection from Building and Safety. However, in order to do so, as well as satisfy requirements of the State, County, and City, the tract map must be current. Therefore the applicant has re-applied for the approval of Tentative Tract Map 2009-01. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed Tentative Tract Map is in accordance with the Environmental Impact Report conducted and approved April 11, 2006 for Conditional Use Permit No. 2005-30 and Tentative Tract Map 2006-01. 1 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission conduct a public hearing on the matter and upon conclusion of that hearing, adopt Resolution No. 3233 and findings to approve Tentative Tract Map 2009-01.

The building is currently occupied by the Human Potential Consultants, LLC (HPC) as an Adult Resource Center, operating under Resolution No. 2501 approved July 26, 1994. A Conditional Use Permit was requested for approval, expanding the current permitted use, and was denied per Resolution 3215 and 3216.

Both resolutions are dated and signed exactly the same, July 26, 1994. In 1994 the CUP was brought to the Planning Commission six times, and appealed to the City Council once. As a result of the City Council appeal, the application was taken back to the Planning Commission the sixth time, with the direction to approve with conditions. City staff has reviewed all correspondence from 1994, worked with the City attorney as well as HPC to determine which copy is most accurate. At the direction of the City attorney, staff is bringing the resolution for your review and approval.

P3, #32 Provide an evacuation plan with a N/A designated assembly area in the event of an emergency. P3, #33 Occupancy load shall not exceed N/A 135 persons, including patients and employees. Of note, the most conflicting conditions include #10 where version 1 requires 9 off-site parking spaces and version 2 does not. Additionally, #18 in version 2 limits patients to 50 adult clients and #33 in version 1 limits occupancy to 135 persons, including patients and employees. Parking is a primary concern when addressing this use. According to Section 25-65-6 of the Lynwood Municipal Code, "convalescent facility" requires that the Adult Resource Center provide one parking space for each four (4) clients and one parking space for the maximum number of employees assigned to one shift. Based upon staff's analyses for that use, the'municipal code would requires a total of 24 parking spaces; 19 parking spaces for the 75 beds, and 5 parking space per the maximum number of employees assigned to one shift. Resolution 2501 Version 1 requires a total of 24 parking spaces; Version 2 requires 15 parking spaces. However, the current business and the business authorized under Resolution No. 2501 is not a convalescent facility. The existing business is an adult treatment facility that does not allow clients to bring vehicles to the site, nor does it allow clients to have visitors. There is no parking calculation in the Lynwood Municipal Code; therefore the proposal should take into consideration the existing use when calculating the parking requirements. 3 In terms of the number of clients and capacity, both versions are actually not that different. Version 1 allows up to 135 persons, including patients and employees. Version 2 only mentions a maximum of 50 clients, with no mention of staff. Because the intended use in 1994 included women with children, allowing up to 50 adult clients implied that each client could have at least one child, potentially adding up to 100 participants, and a staff of about 30. Both versions reach approximately 130 persons, when taking into consideration the intended use of the building. Currently HPC does not treat children, only admits adult women to the program, operates with a 15/1 clients to staff ratio, and the maximum shift includes 5 employees. Under the requirements of Version 1, HPC would be allowed to admit 120 clients and up to 8 employees because Version 1 does not specify or distinguish a maximum clientele. Under Version 2 HPC would be directly limited to 50 adult clients. The facility currently supports 50 sleeping rooms. According to Building Code, two persons can sleep in each room, allowing up to 100 clients. Currently the facility is a 24 hour operation; however, between 7:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. clients are driven by staff to off-site locations (other facilities) for trainings. At the return at 1:00 p.m. lunch is served, additional classes are held and after a 5:00 p.m. dinner, is free time till lights out at 11:00 p.m. Given the current use and facilities, staff has prepared an alternative Resolution that combines elements of both versions. Staff has included conditions from both resolutions, and modified conditions that may conflict. More specifically, the Resolution addresses the following concerns: - Parking: Provide 16 parking spaces, including one space reserved for van loading and unloading. The van space shall be so located along the alley such that the van will not block the sidewalk when backing out of the designated parking space. - Clients shall be restricted to adult females only, not to exceed 75 clients located and housed at the project site. - There shall be no client visitation. Visitations from governmental or Private agencies are permitted, but must be documented and reported to the Planning Commission as requested. - Applicant must provide private onsite security between the hours of 1:00 p.m. to 11:59 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 7:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. Saturday through Sunday. 4 - There shall be a periodic review of the applicant's compliance with all of the requirements at a time specified by the Development Services Director, but in no event longer than 6 months or as requested by the Planning Commission. - Resolution No. 2501 is null and void. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Development Services Department has determined the proposed project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301 Class 1 (a). RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission conduct a public hearing on the matter and upon conclusion of that hearing, adopt Resolution No. 3226 approve Conditional Use Permit Modification No. 2009-02.

Its objective is to accommodate a variety of commercial and public uses with emphasis on uses that support the transit system. Recommended land uses include retail/restaurants, food courts of various ethnic varieties, commercial uses, small offices, a police substation, and even parking structures should there be increased ridership on the Green Line. 1.2 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS Development Standards for Transit Village III are enumerated below: Deve lo ntent Standards Village III Maximum Floor Area Ratio 0.7 of the lot size. Dwelling Units 30 du/ac Permitted on second story and above Lot Size No minimum acreage, parcel consolidation recommended. Building Height No maximum. Landscape Area 7 percent minimum of the site area. Courtyard and Patio requirement Additional 3 percent to the above 7 percent for a total of 10 percent. Front Setback Current requirement of a 10 foot minimum. Side Street Setback Current requirement of 10 foot minimum. Rear Setback 5 foot minimum. 1.3 PARKING REQUIREMENTS PER LAND USE TYPE Parking requirements need to be tailored to the land use mix for each specific development project. It is recommended that proponents of development projects do a parking demand analysis based on the land use mix and the generation rates in the context of the transit location. Parkin Re_ uorements Retail/Commercial component o 1/300 square feet of retail. ?tl 1/400 square feet of commercial. 1/100 square feet of restaurant. Multi-Tenant retail/commercial 1/100 square feet. Residential component Tandem parking permitted in garage. Additional %nnodatime Measures. 1. No parking is required for uses under 2,500 square feet if parking is available within 600 feet. 2. Allow curbside parking spaces and shared spaces within 600 feet to be counted in the requirement to allow further reductions in off-street parking for mixed-use projects and those with good transit access. 3. Curb parking along residential uses will count toward visitor parking requirements only. The minimum linear frontage is 22 feet per parallel parking stall and 9 feet for head-in and angled parking. Off-Street Parkin Off-street parking Shall be located to the rear and/or interior of a lot such that its visibility from a street shall be minimized. At-grade, aboveground, or At grade parking structures shall have a minimum frontage as belowground parking outlined in Chapter 4.0 Architectural Design Guidelines. structures shall be permitted. Surface parking lots C Shall be placed between the structure and a side or rear lot line. Where a lot fronts onto two or more streets, parking shall be located accordingly m Along the street with the least amount of commercial activity; or © Along the street with least amount of pedestrian activity if the lot is located along two or more commercial streets with equal amounts of commercial activity. Garages single-family Whether attached or detached garages, shall be set back at residential least 10 feet behind the primary front facades of the buildings they serve. The primary front facade shall comprise at least 50 percent of the overall width of the primary residence and the 10- foot setback shall not be measured from projections such as bay windows and porches, but from the facade of the wall which encloses the building. Parking structures in commercial and mixed-use areas fronting on a street shall include ground- floor uses to create a pedestrian-supportive interface with the abutting sidewalk. If a use cannot be provided, appropriate landscaping shall be used as screening. Parking structures, including structures developed in conjunction with the Transit Center shall adhere to the same setbacks, frontage, and height requirements as buildings within their respective neighborhood zones. Podium parking used in any development shall be partially submerged with the above grade height not to exceed 5 feet. Landscaping shall be used to screen exposed openings. A wall or fence between 4 and 6 feet in height shall separate parking lots from abutting residential uses with landscaping as stated in the Landscape Plan. Walls and fences shall take on the character of residential uses. Bicycle parking will primarily be on the sidewalks along the side streets that connect to Long Beach Boulevard. 1.4 LOCATION OF !VEHICLE ACCESS Conflicts between pedestrians and vehicles entering and exiting parking lots shall be minimized. Access from pedestrian-oriented streets shall be avoided unless no other reasonable access is available, such as in lots with a single-street frontage and no alley. Where alleys are present, driveways leading to parking lots, and loading and service areas shall be accessed from the alley. Lots with more than one street frontage and no alley shall locate vehicular access along the street with the least amount of pedestrian activity. All loading and service drives shall be of a depth that prevents loading and service vehicles from obstructing the sidewalk and roadway. Access • Driveways shall not dominate the street frontage, and driveway widths shall be minimized to reduce their presence along the street. • Where feasible, driveways shall be consolidated within the single lot and shared with adjacent properties to minimize their encroachment upon sidewalks. • Shared driveway agreements shall be utilized where possible for shared parking, and loading and service areas. To avoid encroaching upon sidewalks and creating uneven pedestrian surfaces, driveway slopes shall be located between the roadside edge of the sidewalk and the curb. Loading and Service Area Location Loading, service, and refuse areas shall be located at the interior of the lot and screened from view with walls, trellises, planting, berms, or by integration into the design of the building. Walls shall not exceed 6 feet in height. Solid walls shall be landscaped to soften their appearance and shall be made of finished materials to match the primary building. Decorative elements, variation in materials, and articulation shall be used. 1.5 CUSTOMIZED USES Each village area is defined in precise terms to ensure that the range of permitted and conditionally permitted uses respects the intent of the plan and the conditions encountered in each area of the site.

Minimum sidewalk width: 18 feet. 2. Planting width: 3-4 feet. 3. Sidewalk Material: PCC. 4. Planting Materials: Mexican Fan Palm or Canary Island Date Palm, Fichus (specimen tree), and Bougainvillea (vine). Figures 5.6 through 5.10 illustrate the landscape plan in Transit Village III. 5. Street Furnishings: Street lighting, outdoor seating, bicycle racks, trash receptacles, and other amenities are provided on the sidewalk. 6. Street lighting will also carry banners designed to announce special civic or cultural events. 7. Water elements should be implemented into the streetscape without acting as a barrier to pedestrian circulation. Small fountains or vertical water falls attached to the building fagade would work best due to the limited sidewalk space. 8. Street Intersections: The major intersection at Imperial Highway and Long Beach Boulevard is marked by enhanced paving across the intersection. The pedestrian walking zone is especially important as this is a busy intersection with movement of pedestrians, bicyclist, and vehicles. Pedestrian bulb-outs should be considered to reduce the pedestrian crossing distance and time. This also improves pedestrian visibility. 9. Landmark Element: A landmark element in the form of an archway or gateway is planned at the northeast and southwest corner of Imperial Highway and Long Beach Boulevard. This should be a major landmark that adds to the ambience of this intersection as a "Town Square" for the City. Planning Division counter hours are between 7:00-10000 A.M. and 3e00-6e00 P.M. Monday-Thursday only.
