STAFF REPORT
10/5/2022
TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners
FROM: Eva Lara, Planning Technician and Gabriel Perez, Development Services Director
SUBJECT: Pueblo Viejo Downtown Parking Survey and Consideration of Parking Time Limits
Growing the Pueblo Viejo Downtown District as a hub for small business and a destination for residents and visitors are City priorities. The 2019 Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan (Plan) included a parking analysis and identified recommendations for managing parking demand as Pueblo Viejo develops. The Owner of Sixth Street Coffee (1500 6th Street), Steve Garcia, requested parking time limits on 6th Street between Orchard and Vine Streets to accommodate customers who frequent 6th Street small businesses for short visits. Staff conducted a parking survey informed by the parking analysis conducted in the Plan to identify if parking demand in the area warrants parking time limits. The Plan organized parking in Downtown by numbered blocks (Attachment 1). The survey monitored parking demand on Monday, September 5, 2022 for onstreet and off-street parking occupancy between the hours of 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on these blocks and the 6th Street segment between Vine and Orchard Streets This report is intended to update the Planning Commission of the survey results and identify parking management options.

On Sixth Street, between Orchard and Vine Streets, there are a total of 19 parallel on-street parking spaces. Adjacent uses include the Coachella Library, Sixth Street Coffee, Todec, True Awakening Studio, Las Tres Conchitas, on the South side and Alianza, COFEM, and the soon to open Firehouse Bar and Grill. The peak parking occupancy occurred at 9 a.m.at 77% and generally observed above 50% occupancy after 9 a.m. The lowest parking occupancy was observed at 7 a.m. at 33%.
.

On Block 6 “Library Block”, there are a total of 45 parking spaces available, of which 9 are onstreet on 6th Street in front of Library/Sixth Street Coffee, 13 on Orchard, 8 on Vine and 15 on 7th Street. The peak occupancy was around 11 a.m. at 73%. Parking was observed above 50% occupancy between 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The lowest occupancy occurred at 7 a.m. at 16%.

At Veterans Park, Block 5, there are a total of 124 parking spaces, of which 35 are on-street on Orchard Street, 26 on 4th Street, 36 on Vine Street, and 17 off-street in a gated parking lot. The peak occupancy occurred at 11 a.m. at 35%. The lowest occupancy occurred at 7 a.m. at 15% 12 Item 3.

The parking survey demonstrated that parking is abundant throughout the Downtown District. The parking occupancy is observed highest on the 6th Street segment at 77%. Parking is considered full when occupancy is above 80% and would be a reason to identify aggressive parking management strategies.

Staff recommends the Planning Commission consider the following options to manage parking on the 6th Street segment from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday (15 minute, 20 minute, 1 hour or 2 hour limitations):

A. All on-street parking between Vine and Orchard Street be time restricted B. Two time restricted parking spaces in front of the library and 6th Street Coffee and two time restricted parking spaces in front of the bakery and boutique.

C. All on-street parking spaces on south side of 6th Street between Vine and Orchard Streets be time restricted.

Staff believes a moderate approach of option B should be considered for managing parking that includes time limits for 4 parking spaces on 6th Street, where 2 spaces would be time restricted in front of the Library/Sixth Street Coffee and 2 spaces would be time restricted in front of the Tres Conchitas/True Awakening Studio. The businesses and nonprofit organizations on 6th Street expressed support for the moderate approach. Regular long-term parking for employees or visitors for longer stays could still find available parking along plentiful parking along Vine and Orchard Streets where parking occupancies remain low to moderate. A more aggressive approach would be recommended to the Planning Commission when future parking surveys identify parking occupancies exceeding 80%. Any approved parking limitations would need to be made apparent to the public with signage (Attachment 3) and may also include painting the curb green.

Staff recommends that the Planning Commission grant a second 12-Month time extension for Fountainhead Development Phase II, which includes Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 321, CUP No. 322 and Architecture Review (AR) No. 20-03 with new expiration dates of October 14, 2023.

BACKGROUND:

On September 6, 2022, the applicant, Coachella
Retail Realty Associates, LP submitted a first
request for a time extension for entitlements with
the Fountainhead Development Phase II. The
proposed development is on a vacant portion of an
existing development at northeast corner of Cesar
Chavez Street and First Street.

On May 7, 2008, the project was originally entitled
under CUP No. 233 and AR No. 07-20 as a phased
project. The first phase is the existing development
properties which are the Walgreen’s, Taco Bell and
Mc Donald’s at the southeast corner for Avenue 50
and Cesar Chaves Street.

On October 14, 2020, the City Council adopted
Resolution 2020-56 approving Tentative Parcel
Map (TPM) No. 37940 to subdivide 8.25 acres of
vacant land into seven (7) parcels (APN 778-020-
007 and 778-010-017). Parcels 4, 5, 6, and 7 is reserved for future commercial development. Parcel 23 Item 4.
7 will remain a common-area retention for storm water drainage for the existing developed properties (Walgreen’s, Taco Bell and McDonalds). Final Map No. 37940 has been recorded and the subdivision is in effect. No further extensions are required for TPM No. 37940 Together with the Tentative Parcel Map No. 37940, the City Council adopted Resolution 2020-55 approving CUP No. 321, CUP No. 322 and Architecture Review No. 20-03. CUP No. 321 is for the development of a 12 pump fueling station and a 2,000 square feet drive-thru coffee shop. CUP No. 322 was approved to allow alcohol sales within the proposed mini-mart for a Type 20, Off Sale, Beer and Wine. Architecture Review 20-03 is for the architectural design of the building and potential retail and/or a restaurant. The CUP and Architectural Review entitlements above will expire on October 14, 2021. The Starbucks Coffee has been constructed and anticipated to open by October 1, 2022. On-site parking and landscaping improvements are complete for the Starbucks pad. Common area landscape improvements for the Fountainhead Plaza are underway, including rehabilitation of the original common areas for Fountainhead Plaza pursuant to project conditions of approval. Upon approval of the Planning Commission for the extension, the new expiration date will be October 14, 2023.
24 Item 4.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The Planning Commission is required to make the prior findings, including a finding of consistency with the City’s General Plan, Zoning and California Environmental Quality Act.

There are no new policy items to address with respect to this project. The Commission and Council found that the project is exempt under CEQA Guidline Section 15332, there is no need for additional CEQA environmental review at this time.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Planning Commission grant a second 12-month time extension for Fountainhead Development Phase II CUP No. 321, CUP No. 322 and Architecture Review No. 20-03 with new expiration dates of October 14, 2023.

Section 2. CEQA Findings
Based upon its review of the entire record, including the Staff Report, any public comments or testimony presented to the Planning Commission, and the facts outlined below, the Planning Commission hereby finds and determines that the proposed project is categorically be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 as an infill development because the project involves development on a site of five acres where the parcel complies with General Plan policies and zoning regulations.

Section 3. Findings for Extension of time for CUP 321, CUP 322 and AR 20-03:

With respect to CUP 321, CUP 322 and AR 20-03, the Planning Commission finds as follows for the proposed time extension request:

1. The proposed use will not be in conflict with, but will be in harmony with and in accordance with the objectives of the Coachella General Plan 2035, except as recognized that the project has vested rights as to the number of drive-thru restaurants and service stations previously vested under CUP No. 233 and AR No. 07-20. Staff requested direction from the Planning Commission at the June 3, 2015, Planning Commission hearing through a policy discussion item on the agenda. The site has a Downtown Center land use designation that allows for a range of retail uses. The proposed uses on the site are in keeping with the policies of the Downtown Center land use classification and the Project is internally consistent with other General Plan policies for this type of development.

2. The proposed uses will be located, designed, constructed, operated and maintained so as to be compatible with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and shall not change the essential character of the same area. The proposed project is in compliance with the applicable development standards of the City’s Zoning Code. The applicant proposes to amend the approved site plan by eliminating two tenant spaces (4,500 sq. ft). of a multi-tenant retail building and instead retain a 2,028 sq. ft. drive-thru Coffee Shop and a 12-fueling position Canopy for Service Station and a 3,010 sq. ft. mini-market with alcohol sales and 24 hour operations on 3.1 acres of vacant land, in accordance with section 17.74.010 of the Coachella Municipal Code.

3. Consideration is given to harmony in scale, bulk, coverage and density, to the availability of public facilities and utilities, to harmful effect, if any, upon desirable neighborhood character, to the generation of traffic and the capacity of surrounding streets, and to any other relevant impact of the development. The proposed development consists of an amended site plan and architectural elevations that proposes to eliminate two tenant spaces (4,500 sq. ft). of a multitenant retail building and instead retain a 2,028 sq. ft. drive-thru Coffee Shop and a 12-fueling position Canopy for Service Station and a 3,010 sq. ft. mini-market with alcohol sales and 24 hour operations on 3.1 acres of vacant land, in accordance with section 17.74.010 of the Coachella Municipal Code. The proposal which will provide City residents and regional residents with an alternative food service and an additional service station with a convenience store which will provide convenience to motorist within the region. The proposed use is 27 Item 4.

Resolution No. PC2022-23

Page 3 ends

compatible with existing adjacent uses, which include similar land uses and large commercial development sites.

4. Where the proposed use may be potentially hazardous or disturbing to existing or reasonably expected neighboring uses, it must be justified by the common public interest as a benefit to the community as a whole. The proposed development will be compatible with the neighboring properties with respect to land development patterns and application of architectural treatments. The plans submitted for this project propose a building with similar architectural features to the adjoining existing architectural theme of the commercial center as well as adjoining commercial development within the immediate vicinity of the proposed site.

The surrounding properties to the south and to the east are vacant and can provide for similar commercial development. As such, the proposed buildings will be in keeping with the scale, massing, and aesthetic appeal of the existing neighborhood and future development.

5. The proposed use will include three new vehicular approaches to the property designed to improve off-site and on-site vehicular circulation for existing traffic on surrounding public streets or roads. Evidence of this is reflected in the provided site plan design. The three new proposed drive isles and internal circulation have been reviewed and approved by the Fire Department and the Engineering Department.

Section 4. Planning Commission Approval;
Based on the foregoing recitals and findings above, and the written and oral comments, facts and evidence presented, the City of Coachella Planning Commission approves a second 1-year time extension request for Conditional Use Permit No. 321, Conditional Use Permit No. 322, Architectural Review 20-03 for the Fountainhead Plaza Phase II project subject to the conditions of approval of Resolution No, 2020-55 and as modified by Resolution No. 2022-10. 28 Item 4.

RE: Resolution No. 2020-55 (CUP #321, #322, AR #20-03); Resolution No. 2020-56 (TPM) Time Extension #2
Dear Gabriel,
We respectfully request for time extension on the referenced project approved on 10/14/2020.

Specifically on the 12-fueling service station and 4,088 sf Mini-Market and Alcohol sales. The project was impacted due to the pandemic event in 2020 affecting tenant’s negotiation and specific Mini-Mart tenant withdrawing from the site. We received new tenant interest to replace the original user but will require additional time for new tenant to complete due diligence and to incorporate tenant development requirement.

Please let me know if you have any questions or require additional information on our time extension request.

Sincerely,
Francis C Chu. NCARB
Fountainhead Development

Plan policies and zoning regulations; and,
WHEREAS, the proposed project could not adversely affect the general health, safety and welfare of the community.

NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved, that the City Council of the City of Coachella, California does hereby approve Conditional Use Permit No. 321, Conditional Use Permit No. 322, and Architectural Review No. 20- 03, subject to the findings and conditions of approval listed below.

FINDINGS FOR CUP 321, CUP 322, AND AR 20- 03:

1. The proposed use will not be in conflict with, but will be in harmony with and in accordance with the objectives of the Coachella General Plan 2035, except as recognized that the project has vested rights as to the number of drive- thru restaurants and service stations previously vested under CUP No. 233 and AR No. 07- 20. Staff requested direction from the Planning Commission at the June 3, 2015, Planning Commission hearing through a policy discussion item on the agenda. The Commission did find that the proposed drive- thru and service station are in harmony with the immediate vicinity of the proposed site and indicated that any future proposed development on the vacant portion of the site must be in strict compliance with the newly adopted City of Coachella General Plan 2035.

2. The proposed uses will be located, designed, constructed, operated and maintained so as to be compatible with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and shall not change the essential character of the same area. The proposed project is in compliance with the applicable development standards of the City' s Zoning Code. The site plan proposes the construction and operation of a development consisting of a multi- tenant restaurant/ retail building including a 2,000 sq. ft. drive-thru Coffee Shop and 4, 500 sq. ft. restaurant/office space, and a 12-fueling position Canopy for Service Station and a 4, 088 sq. ft. mini-market with alcohol sales and 24 hour operations on 3. 1 acres of vacant land, in accordance with section 17. 74. 010 of the Coachella Municipal Code.

3. Consideration is given to harmony in scale, bulk, coverage and density, to the availability of public facilities and utilities, to harmful effect, if any, upon desirable neighborhood character, to the generation of traffic and the capacity of surrounding streets, and to any other relevant impact of the development. The proposed development consists of a multi- tenant restaurant/retail building including a 2,000 sq. ft. drive-thru Coffee Shop and 4, 500 sq. ft. restaurant/office space, and a 12- fueling position Canopy for Service Station and a 4, 088 sq. ft. mini- market with alcohol sales and 24 hour operations on 3. 1 acres of vacant land which will provide City residents and regional residents with an alternative dining choice and an additional service station with a convenience store which will provide convenience to motorist within the region. The proposed use is compatible with existing adjacent uses which include similar land uses and large commercial development sites.

40 Item 4.
the community as a whole. The proposed development will be compatible with the neighboring properties with respect to land development patterns and application of architectural treatments. The plans submitted for this project propose a building with similar architectural features to the adjoining existing architectural theme of the commercial center as well as adjoining commercial development within the immediate vicinity of the proposed site. The surrounding properties to the south and to the east are vacant and can provide for similar commercial development. As such, the proposed buildings will be in keeping with the scale, massing, and aesthetic appeal of the existing neighborhood and future development.

5. The proposed use will include three new vehicular approaches to the property designed to improve off-site and on- site vehicular circulation for existing traffic on surrounding public streets or roads. Evidence of this is reflected in the provided site plan design.

Eberhard Equipment No. 2 (Applicant) Continued from the Planning Commission meeting of September 21, 2022 STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. PC 2022-33 approving Architecture Review No. 22-06 and Variance No. 22-03 pursuant to the findings and conditions contained in the resolution.

BACKGROUND:

On November 2020, Eberhard Equipment occupied
the existing facility at 86100 Avenue 54. Eberhard
Equipment provides service/parts and equipment
rentals/sales of agricultural/farming equipment to
municipalities, school districts, and independent
contractors. Ken L. Eberhard founded the company in
1945. There are two locations within Southern
California, the first location is at Santa Ana in
operation for over 40 years and the second location is
the subject property in the City of Coachella. The site was once the location of California Pools and Spas and
the development was approved by the Planning
Commission on October 17, 2001 as Architectural
Review No. 01-14 with a monument sign at the corner
of Tyler Street and Avenue 54. The Planning
Commission requested that Staff prepare a resolution for approval of the Architectural Review and Variance request for the October 5, 2022 meeting.

The remainder of the sign is colored black and lettering for the business and location are in white.

The proposed sign complies with all development standards for signs (C.M.C. Chapter 17.56 Signs) as identified in Table 1, except for sign face size. The applicant proposes a sign with a 96 sq. ft. sign face area and the Zoning Ordinance allows a maximum sign face area of 75 sq. ft, and therefore the sign cannot be approved without approval of a variance and making the variance findings. Staff cannot support the variance as there are no practical difficulties and unnecessary physical hardships; there is observed disparity of privilege to remedy, or the need to permit a use substantially inconsistent with the limitation upon other properties in the same 68 Item 5.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF COACHELLA PLANNING
COMMISSION APPROVING ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW NO. 22-06 AND VARIANCE NO. 22-03 FOR THE PROPOSED INSTALLATION OF A
FREESTANDING IDENTIFICATION SIGN AT 21 FEET HIGH AND A 96

SQUARE FOOT SIGN FACE FOR AN EXISTING AGRICULTURAL
EQUIPMENT RENTAL BUSINESS LOCATED ON A 3.86 ACRE SITE AT 86100 AVENUE 54 IN THE M-H (HEAVY INDUSTRIAL) ZONE. EBERHARD EQUIPMENT NO. 2, APPLICANT.

WHEREAS Joe Rodriguez, on behalf of Eberhard Equipment No. 2 filed an application for Architectural Review No. 22-06 and Variance No. 22-03 to freestanding identification sign at 21 feet high and 96 sq. ft. sign face area for an existing agricultural equipment rental business located on a 3.86 acre site at 86100 Avenue 54 (Assessor’s Parcel No. 763-141-009 and 763-141- 007); and,
WHEREAS on October 7, 2001 the Planning Commission approved Architectural Review No. 01-14 to allow the construction of a 10,000 sq. ft. industrial building with offices, warehouse, and outdoor storage space with a corner monument sign located at 86100 Avenue 54 for California Pools; and,
WHEREAS on September 11, 2022, the Planning Commission of the City of Coachella published a public hearing notice and conducted a duly noticed public hearing on Architectural Review No. 22-06 and Variance No. 22-03 and considered the application as presented by the applicant, findings, conditions and staff recommendations; and WHEREAS the Applicant and members of the public were present and were afforded an opportunity to testify regarding the Project; and,

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission of the City of Coachella, California hereby resolve as follows:

Resolution PC2022-33

Section 2. CEQA Findings
Based upon its review of the entire record, including the Staff Report, any public comments or testimony presented to the Planning Commission, and the facts outlined below, the Planning Commission hereby finds and determines that the proposed project is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Class 11) “Accessory Structures” as the applicant proposes an on-premise sign which is consistent with the Class 11 exemption for construction, or placement of minor structures accessory to existing industrial facilities.

Section 3. Variance Findings
With respect to Variance No. 22-02, the Planning Commission finds as follows for the proposed variance request:

1. That the strict application of the provisions of this chapter would result in practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships inconsistent with the general purpose and intent of the chapter the Coachella Municipal Code as the subject site is located in a portion of the Heavy Industrial Zone at the edge of the City limits where there are difficulties in visibility of the business that provided retail and rental of agricultural vehicles and machinery.

Heavy Industrial uses in the M-H zoning district typically consist of manufacturing related businesses that are not focused on attracting customers as a storefront retail business.

Eberhard Equipment depends on a reliable customer base for rental and sales. The variance would allow for a sign that exceed the sign face size by only 21 sq. ft..

2. That there are special circumstances applicable to the subject property, which are the location or surroundings that do not apply generally to other property in the same zone and vicinity. The Zoning Ordinance Chapter 17.56 allows for a sign face size based on ten (10) square feet of sign per acre to a maximum area of seventy-five (75) square feet per face for businesses with one more than two and one-half acres of land. The subject business is located on a parcel in the M-H Heavy Industrial zoning district where it is less visible than major commercial corridors in the City of Coachella. The subject parcel is also located on a property in the M-H zone that does not have frontage on Major corridors as other M-H zoned properties along Grapefruit Boulevard.

3. That such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right or use generally possessed by other property in the same zone and vicinity.

The subject business is located on a parcel in the M-H Heavy Industrial zoning district where it is less visible than major commercial corridors in the City of Coachella. The subject parcel is also located on a property in the M-H zone that does not have frontage on Major corridors as other M-H zoned properties along Grapefruit Boulevard

4. That the granting of such variance would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the same zone or vicinity in which the property is located as the sign is located on a property in the M-H zone at the edge of the City limits that would not cause a nuisance to nearby residential neighborhoods and is more characteristic of development in the M-H Heavy Industrial zoning district.

5. That the granting of the variance will not adversely effect any element of the general plan 72 Item 5.

Resolution No. PC2022-33

as the general plan does not preclude freestanding signs of this size.

Section 4. Architectural Review Findings
With respect to Architectural Review No. 22-06, the Planning Commission finds as follows for the proposed freestanding sign request:

1. Compatibility with neighboring property. The proposed sign would be compatible with signage for industrial properties in the vicinity in the M-H Zone and would be located at the edge of the City where there would be limited aesthetic impacts and would not affect any designated visual corridors.

2. The Zoning Ordinance development standards allows for a maximum sign area of 75 square feet considered suitable of industrial sites larger than 2 ½ acres and architectural review by the Planning Commission to determine suitability of the sign for the site. The Planning Commission concludes that the proposed sign at this location of 96 sq. ft. (21 sq. ft. above the max sign face standard) is suitable and would have a negative impact incompatible with the goals of the City’s sign ordinance.

3. The proposed sign would not impact traffic congestion as the sign would be located in an appropriate location so as not to interfere with site line distance.

4. That approval of the Architectural Review No. 22-06 will not adversely effect any element of the general plan as the general plan does no prescribe sign standards or appearance.

Section 5. Planning Commission Approval;
Based on the foregoing recitals and findings above, and the written and oral comments, facts and evidence presented, the City of Coachella Planning Commission approves Architectural Review No. 22-06 and Variance No. 22-03 for the Eberhard Equipment No. 2 freestanding sign project subject to the conditions of approval of “Exhibit A” and Sign Plan in “Exhibit B.” 73 Item 5.
