THIS MEETING IS ACCESSIBLE TO PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES 10 Item 1.
STAFF REPORT
10/26/2022
TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners
FROM: Gabriel Perez, Development Services Director
SUBJECT: Request for a Third 12-Month Time Extension for Architectural Review No. 19- 02 to construct a new multi-tenant retail/office center consisting of two commercial buildings for a total of 22,300 sq. ft. on two vacant parcels of land totaling 1.9 acres in the C-G (General Commercial) zone located at the southeast corner of Valley Road and Cesar Chavez Street. (APN 778-280-001 & -002).
Juan Carlos Guardado, Applicant.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission grant the third and last 12-month time extension for Architectural Review No. 19-02 for a new expiration date of August 7, 2023.
BACKGROUND:
On October 12, 2021, the applicant, Juan Carlos Guardado, submitted a first time extension request for the project, which was granted a two-year term expiring August 7, 2022. The project is a multitenant retail/office center on two vacant parcels of land totaling 1.9 acres in the located at the southeast corner of Valley Road and Cesar Chavez Street.
On August 7, 2019, the Planning Commission approved Architectural Review No. 19-02 to allow the construction of a multi-tenant retail/office center consisting of two commercial buildings totaling 22,300 square feet. One of the proposed buildings is a 6,200 square foot, two-story building located closer to the intersection of Cesar Chavez and Valley Road. The second building is 16,100 square feet, one-story building located at the rear of the site with seven (7) potential tenants. Three points of vehicular access are provided to the proposed development, one from Valley Road and two from Cesar Chavez Street.
11 Item 2.
The proposed architecture for the proposed two buildings is of a contemporary design with a light “Golden Gate” exterior stucco color, and a top plate wall measuring a height of 26’ for the twostory building. The one-story building proposes a top plate at 17 feet and a parapet wall height at 27 feet. The one story building provides a corridor at the entire length of the building with a 9 foot depth at the ends of the building and 17 feet 6 inches depth at the center of the building.
Additionally, the corridor provides an extended arched design with stuccoed foam with accenting colors.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
As part of the previous time extension request, the applicant included a revision on the site plan.for a modification to the side setback and parking stall count. The revised site plan included a 16’ side setback from the easterly property line (rear portion of the property) modified from a 10’ setback on the original plan to accommodate an existing easement. The easement is to remain clear of any structures, which resulted in a decrease of the building square footage for the one-story building located at the rear of the site from 16,100 square feet to 14,312 square feet. The one-story building will still accommodate seven (7) potential tenants. In addition, the parking stall count decreased from 91 to 88 parking stalls from the original site plan. 12 Item 2.
The Planning Commission is required to review Architectural Review time extension requests according to the following criteria in the Coachella Municipal Code. There will be no significant change in the surrounding neighborhood. There are no further changes to the proposed project that would result in a change in the surrouding neighborhood.
The project conforms to existing and new building and zone requirements. The project site has a zoning designation of C-G (General Commercial) which permits office and retail uses.
A request for the extension is properly filed with the planning director ten (10) days or more prior to expiration. The Applicant filed for the extension with the Development Services Department on August 4, 2022. By requesting a 12-month time extension, it will ensure the project is valid and can continue with the plan check process. The applicant states upon affidavit the reasons requiring an extension and such other criteria as the planning department shall set forth in the application. The Applicant included the reason for the extension request due to the building plans in plan check.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission grant the third and last available 12-month time extension for Architectural Review No. 19-02, making the new expiration date August 7, 2023.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Chelsea Investment Corporation requests Planning Commission approval of revisions to the architectural design and conditions of approval for the Tripoli Mixed-Use project, a mixed-use development consisting of 108 affordable apartments units, with 1-3 bedroom options, and two retail spaces on 2.8 acres at the northeast corner of Cesar Chavez Street and Bagdad Avenue as follows:
Building A – 3-story 49,794 sq. ft. building consisting of 44 apartment units, a 652 sq. ft. multi-purpose
room, and 1,805 sq. ft. ground floor retail space
modified to 50 apartments units, 2 commercial spaces
of 1,031 sq. ft. each and 1,790 sq. ft. community
room/lounge. (Southwest corner of 6th Street and
Tripoli Ave)
Building B – 4-story 71,079 sq. ft. building consisting of 64 apartment units, a 1,296 sq. ft. community room
and a 1,413 sq. ft. ground floor retail space modified
to a 3-story building consisting of 58 apartment units, 2 commercial spaces of 992 sq. ft. each (Northeast
corner of Cesar Chavez Street and Bagdad Avenue)
Outdoor Tot Lot (relocated at the front of Building A) 27 Item 3.
BACKGROUND:
The subject site is a vacant commercial property and historical aerial photographs from 1953 identify a previous large commercial/industrial building on the site and later removed on 1996 aerial photographs. Chelsea Investment Corporation is currently constructing a 3-story, 105-unit mixed-use development, Pueblo Viejo Villas, on 2.61-acre site north of this subject site as a transitoriented development approved under Change of Zone 17-03. A transit hub on 1.66 acres at the corner of Fourth Street and Cesar Chavez Street will be constructed in association with Pueblo Viejo Villas and will be operated by Sunline Transit Agency.
At a public hearing on April 20, 2022, the Planning Commission recommended approval of Change of Zone (CZ) 22-01, Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 351, Architectural Review (AR) 22- 04 to amend the Official Zoning Map by adding the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Overlay Zone on 2.8 acres of vacant C-G (General Commercial) zoned property for a mixed-use development consisting of 108 apartment units and 2 retail units. The City Council approved the project at a public hearing on May 11, 2022.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The surrounding land uses and zoning designations are as follows:
North: Existing commercial development and Pueblo Viejo Villas, (C-G, General Commercial and C-G PD).
South: Rancho Grande Markets (C-G, General Commercial).
East: Residential neighborhood and vacant land (C-G, General Commercial and R-S, Residential Single Family).
West: O’Reilly Auto Parts and Cesar Chavez Street (C-G, General Commercial).
Site Plan
The applicant proposes modification of an approved mixed-use development consisting of 108 apartment units and 2 retail spaces within 2 buildings in the Pueblo Viejo District. Building A was approved for a 3-story; 49,794 sq. ft. building located toward the Southwest corner of 6th Street and Tripoli Avenue. Building B was approved as a 4-story, 71,079 sq. ft. building located toward the Northeast corner of Bagdad Avenue and Cesar Chavez Street. Both buildings would be constructed near property line with building frontages on 6th Street, Tripoli Way, Bagdad Avenue and Cesar Chavez Street and on-site parking oriented behind the buildings consistent with goals of the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan. The orientation of the buildings support the City’s goals of promoting a walkable downtown environment with a well-designed public realm.
The applicant proposes to maintain the same unit count of 108 apartments with 1-3 bedroom unit options, but proposes to reduce the size of all units and the unit number in Building B in order to reduce the size of Building B from 4-stories to 3-stories. The community lounge space is proposed to be merged into Building A and total community lounge space reduced by 158 sq. ft. The community space will include kitchen space, restrooms, and 6 computer stations. The retail space 28 Item 3.
available for the project would increase by 1,548 sq, ft. under the new proposal with two retail suites in each building.

No details of the playground equipment were submitted for the Architectural Review, but will be reviewed during building permit plan check.
Parking
The applicant proposed on-site parking area consisting of 118 parking spaces accessed by driveways from Bagdad Avenue and Tripoli Way. The new proposal reduces on-site parking to 104 parking spaces. Parking based on 120,873 sq. ft. of gross floor area, would require 362 spaces in the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan. The applicant proposes 104 on-site parking spaces and 38 on-street parking spaces. The Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan draft development standards allow for on street parking to be counted toward required parking if within 500 feet of the main entrance of the development. Senate Bill 35 allows affordable housing development within ½ mile 30 Item 3.
of public transit to be exempted from parking standards. With the application of density bonus law, only 61 parking spaces would be required or a surplus of 81 parking spaces. Staff is supportive of allowing the development to utilize on-street parking to count towards satisfying parking requirements, which would be provided by constructing 10 diagonal parking spaces on Bagdad Avenue and 28 diagonal parking spaces on Tripoli Way.
Staff has indicated to the applicant a preference for creating diagonal parking spaces on 6th Street along the frontage of the retail spaces to increase parking count. A condition of approval (Condition No. 51) for adding diagonal parking on 6th Street has been included.
Architectural Design
The overall architectural style of the approved project incorporates Spanish Colonial Revival design. The applicant proposes a redesign of the project to reduce costs due to conditions of approval for inclusion of elevators in both buildings and the original architectural design would be cost prohibitive. The applicant selected a new architect that designed the Pueblo Viejo Villas mixed use project and elected to include many of that development’s architectural elements. The original design included a pronounced first floor retail area for Cesar Chavez Street and 6th Street, significant articulation of building features, recessed windows, undulating roofline with several tower features. The applicant redesigned the project and presented new designs for a substantial conformance approval at the administrative level. The Development Services Director determined that the proposed site plan and architectural elevation changes were substantial and would require public hearing approval by the Planning Commission and City Council. The Director also provided comments to improve the design so that the redesigned project could be recommended for approval to the Commission and Council. The applicant worked on design revisions based on staff comments, which are presented in figures 4-7 below.

33 Item 3.
Staff is of the opinion that the original architectural design was a superior design compared to the proposed design and recommended to the applicant that substantial design enhancements be focused on the most publicly visible portion of the development such as 6th Street and Cesar Chavez Street. The applicant retained many of the first floor retail architectural features, added finials on towers, and included the slaked stucco decorative features along the roofline that are characteristic of Spanish Colonial Revival design. The applicant does not propose to incorporate recessed windows, sloped window sills, window awnings above the first floor, mortar packing for roof tile, or bull nosed stucco building edges.
Staff has included recommended design revisions in condition of approval No. 19 that includes decorative cornices, increase in use of divided lites, and increase in use of tower features. Roof tile materials and construction consistent with Spanish Colonial Revival design is still recommended in condition of approval no. 20 with greater flexibility. Smooth stucco finishing and bull nosed corners are still recommended in condition of approval no. 21, but staff would be amenable to smooth finish stucco that does not include undulations if demonstrated to be infeasible. Condition of approval no. 17 for a 15-foot ceiling for the first floor retail is still recommended as the applicant, Chelsea Investments, has provided similar ceiling heights in other mixed-use developments in their development portfolio. Staff believes that the increase in ceiling height will create a greater desirable retail establishment setting as recommended in the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan. The proposed first floor ceiling height is 9’1”. Staff seeks the Planning Commission input on the first floor ceiling height and if a lower ceiling height is appropriate.
Landscape Design
The applicant proposes to maintain the same landscape pallet but proposes not to revise the landscape plan that would accommodate trees along the edge of the curb at Cesar Chavez Street and instead intends to maintain the existing sidewalk in place. Staff does not recommend that the existing sidewalk remain and requests that the original condition of approval for a separated sidewalk with trees adjacent to curb consistent with the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan be implemented.
The plant palette shows a variety of trees including “Mulga”, “Hong Kong Orchard,” “Desert Willow,” “Texas Ebony,” “Drake Elm” and “California Fan Palm.” The project is conditioned to modify the landscape plan to create planters adjacent to curb at Cesar Chavez Street and planted with Hong Kong Orchard trees to provide shade for pedestrians. The planters will include waterefficient shrubs including “Bank Catclaw”, “Do-La-la Bougainvillea”, “Compact Texas Ranger”, “Mexican Bush Sage.” Succulents will include “Dwarf Century Plant,” “Blue Flame Agave,” “Red Yucca”, and “Toothless Desert Spoon”. A cluster of palm trees is also provided at the corner of Cesar Chavez Street and First Street along with other landscape materials design to make the future public art location a focal point. The applicant is unable to meet the requirement of 10 shade trees at every 10 parking spaces due to the proposed solar carports.
CONSISTENCY WITH THE GENERAL PLAN
The proposed project is within the Downtown Center land use designation of the General Plan 2035 Land Use and Community Character Element. The Downtown Center is intended to bring 34 Item 3.
the entire community together in a one-of-a-kind Coachella Center, which allows for commercial uses. The General Plan allows for a residential density of 20-65 dwelling units/acre and a Floor Area Ratio of 0.5-3 for commercial uses. The project proposes a density of 38 dwelling units per acre and is thereby consistent with the General Plan. The project is consistent with the policies of the Land Use and Community Character's Sub-Area #2 policies, which recognize that Downtown is the heart of the City where mixed use development is encouraged and creates a new gateway to downtown near intersection of Sixth Street and Cesar Chavez Street.
CONSISTENCY WITH ZONING
The subject site is zoned C-G (General Commercial) zone, which does not allow for mixed-use development and specifically only permits a residential unit as a proprietors unit. The Zoning is currently inconsistent with the General Plan land use as the future zoning should be Downtown Center, which would accommodate mixed-use development at a density of 20-65 dwelling units/acre. In order to accommodate this type of development, the applicant requests amend the Official Zoning Map with approval of the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Overlay Zone on the
2.8 acres of vacant C-G (General Commercial) zoned property, which allows the applicant to establish flexible development standards and permitted uses insofar as it is consistent with the General Plan. Staff requested that the applicant incorporate the draft development standards of the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan, which identifies this area as the Sixth Street Pueblo Viejo Zone and Cesar Chavez Pueblo Viejo Zone. The project complies with the draft Development Standards of the Sixth Street Pueblo Viejo Zone, except for unit size, parking, retail space height, residential first floor height, and public/common open space requirements.

the applicable development standards for the C-G (General Commercial) Zoning District of the City's Zoning Code and the project request modified development standards through approval of a planned unit development overlay to allow for a mixed-use development consistent with the density permitted of the General Plan of 20-65 dwelling units per acre and consistent with the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan.
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 project is in compliance with the applicable development standards for the C-G (General Commercial) Zoning District of the City's Zoning Code. The proposed development consists a 108 apartment units and 2 retail spaces. The proposed uses will be compatible with existing adjacent uses that include single family residential, multi-family uses, and commercial uses within the immediate vicinity.
4. The Project will be compatible with neighboring properties with respect to land development patterns. The proposed development would develop according to the development standards of the C-G Zone at a scale, massing, and aesthetic appeal of existing development is in keeping with development of neighboring properties such as Pueblo Viejo Villas. The plans submitted for this project propose a commercial and multi-family residential use with amenities for the future residents of the site that are permitted in the C-G PD (General Commercial, Planned Development) zone. The project would promote a well-designed pedestrian realm that includes shade and a safe pedestrian environment for pedestrians.
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.

Pueblo Viejo Implementation Strategy Plan – FINAL REPORT – October 2019
GB-PV ZONE
17.25.010 Intent and purpose.
This zone is intended to provide for and encourage the orderly development of the areas of the Pueblo Viejo that borders Grapefruit Boulevard and serve as gateways into the district. The Pueblo Viejo is envisioned as a higher-density downtown area that provides for a wide variety of multi-family residential housing, office, and retail uses. Centered around a mixed-use core, this zone encourages future mixed-use development, but recognizes the need to support existing uses previously allowed under the C-G General Commercial Use and M-S Manufacturing Service zones. This zone provides for an orderly transition to higher intensity development, defined as the Downtown Center in the city’s General Plan. While encouraging pedestrian-friendly connections and safe multi-modal access, this zone recognizes current automobile-oriented uses, but allows for flexibility in reducing parking requirements, maintaining existing historical automobile-oriented architectural character along Grapefruit Boulevard and retrofitting existing development as market-demands call for new, innovative and/or higher intensity development styles.

17.29.010 Intent and purpose.
This zone is intended to provide for and encourage the orderly development of the core of the Pueblo Viejo District. the core of the Pueblo Viejo District is envisioned, by the city’s General Plan and Pueblo Viejo Vision Plan, as a higher-density mixed-use (either vertical and/or horizontal) downtown area that provides for a wide variety of multi-family residential housing, office, and retail uses. This zone encourages a high-energy pedestrian-friendly environment with street-facing buildings, maintained building lines, a variation of architectural character, and sidewalk and public spaces to provide for gathering spaces and promote outdoor activities including dining, people watching, public art and passive recreation. Motorized vehicle access would minimize impacts on a highly connected pedestrian environment with alley and rear entry access, parking in structures or internal to blocks, and services located behind buildings, in alleyways or rear parking areas. The use of the public realm is encouraged with on-street dining and temporary uses encouraged on sidewalks and adjoining setbacks for these purposes.
