<br />Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2006-02 <br />Site Plan Review No. 2006-01 <br />May 22, 2006 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />The three buildings will reflect a modern architecture design. Building <br />exteriors have a smooth troweled plaster, natural concrete and light sand <br />plaster finishes. The finishes are accented with stone veneer, cultured <br />stone veneer, and aluminum storefront systems. A combination of earth <br />tone and metal paint finishes are incorporated into the design of the <br />buildings (Exhibit 3). <br /> <br />A total of 174 parking spaces are required for the proj ect, with 175 <br />spaces provided. The property owner has entered into a long term lease <br />agreement with Southern California Edison to use the adjacent Edison <br />easement to park 63 vehicles. <br /> <br />The landscape palette for the proj ect has been designed to complement <br />the landscaping within the Brookhollow Office Park. A total of 113 <br />trees are proposed on the finished site including 13 Canary Island Pine <br />trees along Grand Avenue and the Newport Costa Mesa (SR-55) freeway <br />frontage. Existing trees will be maintained where possible; however, 44 <br />trees will be removed to facilitate construction (Exhibit 4) . <br /> <br />Analysis of the Issues <br /> <br />The Brookhollow Office Park is governed by uses and standards outlined <br />in Specific Development No. 8 and by Covenant, Conditions and <br />Restrictions controlled by a Master Association. For zoning purposes, <br />the office park is currently divided into two project areas. Zone I is <br />the largest portion of the office park and primarily allows professional <br />and administrative office uses. Zone II allows the same uses permitted <br />in Zone I, but also allows retail, furniture and bulk merchandise stores <br />wi th a maximum of two tenants per building. Nei ther proj ect area <br />permits multi-tenant retail uses. <br /> <br />Zoning Ordinance Amendment <br /> <br />A zoning ordinance amendment is proposed that will amend Specific <br />Development No. 8 to create a third project area (Zone III) that will <br />permit multi-tenant retail and food uses (excluding drive through <br />facilities) within Zone III. This will permit the multi-tenant retail <br />component of the proposed project which is currently not permitted <br />within the Brookhollow Office Park (Exhibit 5). <br /> <br />75A-4 <br />
