Mr. Barragan stated that the dimensions for the parking stalls can be amended per the direction of the Planning Commission. 1
CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA ITEM #5.8.(1) (b) July 10, 2018 Vice-Chair Sherman questioned the removal of the proposed driveway gate located on the access road, between buildings 2 and 3, as part of the conditions of approval. Mr. Barragan stated that the applicant had initially proposed a driveway gate between buildings 2 and 3; however, due to off-street parking requirements, the gate needed to be removed. Mr. Barragan continued by stating that, if the applicant would like to keep the gate, a parking study will need to be conducted in order to show that there will be adequate off-street parking. Commissioner Langley questioned the flow of traffic entering and exiting the property through Van Ness Avenue. Commissioner Langley continued by stating that, if a "Rightturn Only" policy was enforced, all traffic would be directed towards the adjacent residential neighborhood; therefore, affecting the circulation within the area. Mr. Barragan stated that,.as part of the review process, staff contracted out to traffic consultants, Linscott Law and Greenspan (LLG), to conduct a traffic study. Mr. Barragan continued by stating that, due to the nature of the project, the consultants concluded that no adverse traffic impacts would be created. Commissioner Henderson questioned the potential impact the project would have on the flow of traffic heading northbound on Van Ness Avenue as vehicles would need to make a left turn onto the property. Commissioner Henderson continued by noting the distance between the location of the property in close proximity to the Rosecrans-Van Ness intersection. Mr. Barragan stated that the traffic consultants took into account all possible factors in conducting the traffic study. Mr. Barragan continued by stating the consultants found that the traffic signal on Rosecrans and Van Ness provides ample time for vehicles to enter and exit the property without creating any adverse impacts. Chair Jackson expressed her concern with the increase of traffic volume as a result of the project. Chair Jackson continued by questioning the Gardena Police Departments comments toward the project in regard to the number of traffic accidents within the project area. Mr. Barragan stated that, as part of the review process, the project was routed out to various departments and agencies, including the Gardena Police Department, for review as well as to provide any conditions of approval, as necessary. Mr. Barragan continued by stating that, after further review, the Gardena Police Department found the project appropriate as is. Ms. Kranitz reiterated the findings for the traffic study conducted by LLG that no adverse traffic impacts would be created as well as no special signage for vehicles entering and exiting the property is recommended/needed. Ms. Kranitz continued by stating that, if needed, the traffic consultants can provide further information as to the traffic study conducted. Chair Jackson noted the potential impact the vehicles turning right onto Van Ness Avenue from Rosecrans Avenue would have in conjunction to the increase in traffic volume resulting from the project. Ms. Kranitz clarified Chair Jackson's concern toward the potential traffic accidents that would result from the project. Chair Jackson noted the distance between the traffic signal and the location of the project. 2
CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA ITEM #5.8.(1) (b) July 10, 2018 Ms. Kranitz stated that the Commission can continue to address all other concerns related to the project. Ms. Kranitz continued by stating that the Commission can elect to move the item to a future public hearing in order to gather more information about the traffic study conducted. Chair Jackson noted the traffic circulation for the adjacent properties. Ms. Kranitz stated that the applicant can possibly provide additional information regarding the traffic analysis. Ms. Kranitz continued by reiterating that the Commission can proceed with the hearing as well as move the item to a future public hearing date, if needed. Commissioner Langley expressed his concern with the increase in traffic volume as a result of the project. Commissioner Langley continued by noting the distance in proximity between the project site and Serra High School. Chair Jackson invited the applicant to speak. Mitch Gardner, 275 Waverly Drive, Pasadena, California 91105, expressed his appreciation with staff towards the development review process. Mr. Gardner stated that the dimensions for the fence as well as the removal of the gate will be addressed in the final plans, if the project were to be approved. Mr. Gardner continued by stating that the City contracted out to LLG to perform a traffic study and that the traffic study should be taken into account accordingly. Commissioner Langley inquired about the public correspondence received via email. Commissioner Langley continued by questioning the drainage of the proposed project in relation to the adjacent properties. Mr. Gardner stated that his team was informed of the public comment to which they prepared a formal response and forwarded it to staff. Mr. Gardner continued by stating that the project is subject to any historical drainage systems currently present and, if approved, would be integrated as appropriate. Ms. Kranitz stated that the plans for drainage would be reviewed by the City's Building Official during Building and Safety plan check. Commissioner Langley questioned the ongoing construction at the project site. Mr. Barragan stated that a temporary use permit (TUP) was issued back in September, on another parcel unrelated to this project, for the storage of construction equipment related to a contractor's business. Mr. Barragan continued by stating that the TUP has since expired and the City is moving towards prosecution as the business has become a nuisance to the public, violating the conditions of approval. Commissioner Langley expressed his concern with the TUP in relation to the adjacent residential neighborhood. Mr. Gardner noted his concern with the TUP. Ms. Kranitz asked if the TUP was issued to the property owner of which the TUP is located on. Mr. Barragan stated that the TUP was issued to the applicant of another property owner. Ms. Kranitz stated that the applicant and the property owner will both be held accountable for the issues regarding the TUP. Ms. Kranitz continued by clarifying that the TUP is not related to the proposed project. 3
Vice-Chair Sherman inquired about the proposed block wall. CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA ITEM #5.8.(1) (b) July 10, 2018 Mr. Gardner stated that his team held numerous meetings with the community in order to best incorporate their thoughts and concerns into the project. Mr. Gardner continued by stating that, as part of the project, they will construct a 7-foot block wall along the south property line, which will serve as buffer between the residential neighborhood and the project. Mr. Gardner noted that the drainage plans will modify the existing drainage from the adjacent residential neighborhood to be compliant with state code. Chair Jackson opened the public hearing. Rigoberto Beltran, 2145 West 146 th Place, Gardena, California 90249, noted the potential impact the project will have on the traffic circulation within the area. Mr. Beltran continued by stating that the Rosecrans-Van Ness intersection is prone to many traffic accidents and that this project would pose a safety concern as it is close proximity to it. James Johnson, 2319 West 144 th Street, expressed his concern with the proposed fence along the south property line. Mr. Johnson continued by stating that the guest parking spaces alongside the wall will allow individuals to climb over and trespass into the adjacent residential neighborhood, which has been the case previously. Mr.. Johnson suggested that the fence be increased. Chair Jackson stated that the new fence would be an improvement to the existing fence. Chair Jackson suggested that Mr. Johnson speak with the property owners to the West of the shopping strip located at 2508 West Rosecrans, as there have been complaints about the fence that borders the commercial and residential uses as being too tall. Marveina Johnson, 2915 West 139 th Street, Gardena, California 90249 expressed her support for the proposed project. Ms. Johnson continued by stating that the location has been an eye-soar for several years and that this would be a major improvement. Ms. Johnson noted that the increase in traffic volume would make motorists more aware; therefore, slowing down the high-speed traffic within the area. Jose Macias, 2144 West 144 th Street, Gardena, California 90249, expressed his concern regarding the potential impact the project would have on the traffic circulation within the area. Mr. Macias continued by questioning if the units will be sold individually or rented. Chair Jackson deferred the question to the applicant. Mr. Gardner stated that the units would be individually sold anywhere between mid-tohigh $500,000. Vice-Chair Sherman questioned the cost of the live-work units. Mr. Gardner stated that the prices are dependent on the type of units and the amenities provided. Ms. Kranitz reminded the public to fill-out and submit a speaker card if they would like to speak. Ted Kim, 2420 West Rosecrans Avenue, questioned if the access road would be completely closed off as part of this project since the entrance is located on Van Ness Avenue. Chair Jackson deferred the question to the applicant. 4
CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA ITEM #5.8.(1) (b) July 10, 2018 Mr. Gardner stated that the access road will remain open to the property owners in which the easement is located on. Mr. Gardner continued by stating that his team is working with the staff to install a lockable gate in which all interested parties will have access to. Marin Krishmar, 14900 South Western Avenue, Gardena, California 90249, expressed her support for the project stating that it would enhance the aesthetics of the city as a whole. Chair Jackson noted the speaker-card process. Ms. Kranitz stated that the speaker-cards are used to adequately transcribe the minutes of the hearing. Ms. Kranitz reiterated that all individuals must fill out a speaker-card in order to speak. Al Kingsland, 2219 West 144 th Street, expressed his concern with the access road and the potential increase of noise resulting from vehicles using it. Mr. Kingsland suggested increasing the height of the fence. Ms. Kranitz clarified that the City is not requiring the access road as a condition of approval. Ms. Kranitz continued by stating that an easement located all throughout the vacant lots, already exists and must remain open in order to avoid any issues regarding land lock.' Mr. Kingsland questioned if the easement runs along the property where the Rosecrans Car Wash is located. Ms. Kranitz confirmed that the easement is also located on the Rosecrans Car Wash. Mr. Kingsland noted the noise and traffic resulting from use of the easement by the TUP issued. Chair Jackson stated that the TUP is a separate project in which the City is taking the necessary measures to resolve the matter. Commissioner Langley questioned if the gray color displayed in the map symbolized the access road located on the property. Mr. Barragan stated that the map displayed the fire lane and acqess road. Ms. Kranitz clarified that the gray color Commissioner Langley is referring to, is that of the zoning map. Ms. Kranitz continued by stating that the gray color symbolized the parking zone which was intended to provide a buffer between commercial and residential uses. Ms. Kranitz noted the history with the parking zone and that the applicants have incorporated the intent of the zone into the proposed project. Commissioner Langley questioned the permissible traffic alqng the access road. Ms. Kranitz stated that staff would need to look into the matter. Ms. Kranitz continued by stating that the property owners of the vacant land are the same as those of the northern lots on Rosecrans, respectively. Ms. Kranitz noted the difficulty in determining lot lines as the properties on the south are vacant; nonetheless, it is speculative that any projects at the rear would enter through the front of the properties, on Rosecrans, as appropriate. Vice-Chair Sherman questioned the fire lane in regard to the access road. Mr. Barragan stated that the fire lane was reviewed and approved by the Los Angeles County Fire Department as part of this project. Mr. Barragan continued by stating that any 5
CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA ITEM #5.B.(1) (b) July 10, 2018 new development on the vacant land to the west, would need to be reviewed by the Fire Department in order to maintain the fire lane all throughout. Vice-Chair Sherman questioned the fire lane in regard to the existing easement. Ms. Kranitz deferred the question to the applicant. Mr. Gardner clarified that the fire lane, the access road and all signs related are located on the easement as part of this project. Mr. Gardner continued by stating that since the easement exists, the easement must continue for the properties in which it is located on in order to avoid any issues pertaining to landlock. Mr. Gardner noted the difference in that the project will make improvements to the easement located on the project site, as required by staff and the Fire department; however, the remaining part of the easement will continue to be vacant. Vice-Chair Sherman inquired about possible signage notifying individuals that the easement remains open. Mr. Gardner stated that the easement will remain open for the properties in which the easement is located on. Ms. Kranitz inquired about the access given to the property owners of the properties in which the easement is located. Mr. Gardner stated that a secure lock-box or key lock will be used in which the property owners will be given access to. Ms. Kranitz clarified that the easement will be locked with controlled access in order to avoid any public misuse, which was the case with the property located at 2800 Rosecrans Avenue.

Commissioner Langley noted the historical use of the easement. Mr. Kingsland noted the historical use of the vacant land.

Mr. Gardner continued by stating that the fire lane and access road is located adjacent to the guest parking. Commissioner Langley questioned if the new dimensions for the guest parking affect the approval of the fire lane and access road.

Ms. Kranitz continued by stating that, if the Commission closes the public hearing prior to making a determination, the project would have to be renoticed rather than simply continuing it. Commissioner Pierce stated that the project should be continued to a future public hearing date in order to allow the traffic consultants to come and speak about the study. Commissioner Pierce continued by stating that a report from the Police Department with information of all the accidents that have occurred between Rosecrans Avenue and 144th Street should also be compiled.

Ms. Kranitz informed the Commission that the next scheduled public hearing date would take place on July 3 rd as the June 19 th meeting has been cancelled. Mr. Gardner expressed his concern with continuing the project to another public hearing date. Mr. Gardner. continued by stating that the traffic study was conducted by traffic consultants contracted by the City which would be unfair to second gljess. Ms. Kranitz clarified that the Commission's decision is to bring in LLG to answer questions regarding the study as opposed to contracting out to another firm. Mr. Gardner stated that continuing the project would be inconvenient in terms of deadlines set for the proposed project. Mr. Gardner continued by reiterating the results of the traffic study. Commissioner Henderson stated that the Commission is interested into how exactly the traffic consultants conducted the study. Commissioner Henderson continued by stating that as Gardena residents, they have experienced many traffic issues within the area. Chair Jackson stated that both the Planning Commission and the general public had concerns with the project regarding the potential traffic impact on the circulation within the area. 7
CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA ITEM #5.B.(1) (b) July 10, 2018 Mr. Gardner inquired about including a "No Left Turn" policy entering or exiting the property as a method to avoid continuing the project to a future public hearing date. Commissioner Pierce inquired about the process of private property owners placing traffic signals on the public right of way. Ms. Kranitz stated that a "No Left Turn" policy can be included in the conditions of approval per direction of the Planning Commission. Ms. Kranitz continued by stating that if the signage is insufficient to address the traffic concerns, then the Commission can continue the project to a future public hearing. Ms. Kranitz noted that the Commission can continue the project to a specific day, much sooner than the scheduled July 3 rd meeting..

Ms. Kranitz continued by stating that any questions not addressed should be forwarded to staff so that the traffic consultants can be prepared to answer all questions. Vice-Chair Sherman inquired about the applicant's thoughts on the issues brought about the wall. Mr. Gardner stated that the height of the wall meets the minimum requirements of the City. Mr. Gardner continued by stating that the proposed fence would be an improvement to the existing fence. Chair Jackson questioned when the Commission needed to decide on a date and time.

CITY OF GARDENA PLANNING & ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY COMMISSION THURSDAY, June 14, 2018, MEETING * * * Called to order by Chair Jackson at 7:00 P.M. Present: Absent: Also in Attendance: Led by Commissioner Henderson. There was no approval of minutes. ROLL CALL CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA ITEM #5.B.(1)(c) July 10, 2018 Stephen Langley, Deryl Henderson, Steve Sherman, Brenda Jackson Dale Pierce Joseph Cruz, Director of General Services Lisa Kranitz, City Attorney Raymond Barragan, Community Development Manager Amanda Acuna, Planning Assistant PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE APPROVAL OF MINUTES PUBLIC HEARING Agenda Item #4 Continuation of Site Plan Review #8-17, Administrative Adjustment #1-18, and Tentative Tract Map #1-17 The applicant requests the following entitlements for the construction of a mixed-use community consisting of 35 townhomes, and 5 live-work townhomes located on a 2.04- acre property in the General Commercial (C-3) and Parking (P) zones with a Mixed-Use Overlay (MUO) zone: Site Plan Review, Administrative Adjustment, Tentative Tract Map. Project Location: 14321 South Van Ness Avenue Applicant: G3 Urban Community Development Manager Raymond Barragan stated that the traffic consultant was present per the-request of the Planning Commission from the June 5, 2018 meeting. Clare Look-Jager 600 South Lake Avenue #500, Pasadena, CA 9110 1 6, a principal with Linscott Law and Greenspan ("LLG") engineering firm was present. Chair Jackson explained that the reasoning for the request for a repres entative from LLG was due to the amount of questions that were raised from the assessment that was done by LLG for the subject project. City Attorney Lisa Kranitz stated that a supplemental staff report was placed on the podium that addressed the issues raised by the Commission regarding the traffic accidents, speed and left turn movements. Ms. Kranitz went on to say the staff report confirmed there were no traffic problems or safety issues in regard to the proposed project and that, therefore, no mitigation measures were required. Ms. Jager stated she understood there were concerns from the previous Planning Commission meeting regarding: the number of project vehicles that would be generated 1
CONSENT CALENDA'R AGENDA ITEM #5.8.(1 )(c) July 10, 2018 by this proposed development, concelrns over speeding on Van Ness Avenue, left turn access to the project site, and if those left turns could be safely made. Ms. Jager then stated, as a point of clarification, the project would not be an intense generator, from a traffic perspective, being that is was a residential development and was anticipated to generate about 20 weekday morning and afternoon peak hour vehicle trips, which would be roughly one vehicle every three minutes. Ms. Jager reiterated that this factor was not of a high intensity. Ms. Jager went on to explain that LLG conducted radar speed surveys along Van Ness Avenue during time peak periods iri the morning and afternoon. Ms. Jager then stated through the surveys, LLG found prevailing speeds were generally within the posted speed limit of 35 miles per hour (mph), and, therefore, they did have a large concern regarding speed at this location. Ms. Jager went on to present the results of the gap study conducted by LLG and stated that that it determined there were no issues meaning the traffic volume from the proposed project would be safely accommodated. Lastly, Ms. Jager stated LLG did not see an issue with the line of sight going out of the project drive-way and noted that it was not uncommon to have power poles, street lights or trees in the public right-of-way, however, concluded that LLG did not see the sight distance being insufficient. Commissioner Langley added, for clarification, that the surveys conducted by LLG were taken in the morning between 7:30am and 8:30am and in the evening between 5:00pm and 6:00pm. Chair Jackson stated her concern over the amount of traffic going down Van Ness Avenue due to proximity of the Junipero Serra High School. Ms. Jager noted that she did not foresee that proximity being an issue because of the offset in the school dismal times compared to the commuter afternoon peak hour. Ms. Jager then stated typically the weekday morning peak hour is between 7:00am to 9:00pm and in the afternoon between 4:30pm and 6:30pm, then added that LLG took the highest hour between these times to conduct their surveys. Chair Jackson asked to verify that the survey was conducted on June 7 th, then asked the Commission if they recalled the date of the last academic school day for the Junipero Serra High School. Commissioner Henderson answered it was sometime at the end of May. Chair Jackson asked if the morning peak hours could be affected by the high school. Ms. Jager stated the surveys were conducted on1 June 7 th and that the morning hours could potentially be influenced somewhat but based on the results of the surveys for the residential development the conclusion would still be the same. Ms. Jager added that if there were to be a drastic increase in overall traffic volume she wouldn't believe that the number of gaps form the gap survey could be decreased to a point where it could not accommodate a left turn egress. from the the proposed project driveway. Vice-Chair Sherman stated he was surprised by the results of the surveys conducted by LLG because he has found vehicles traveling typically from 40 to 45 mph in that area. Vice-Chair Sherman had concerns regarding the project driveway being close to Rosecrans Avenue. Ms. Jager stated that there were speeds from the surveys that were greater than 35 mph, but it was not a large percentage of the sampling. Ms. Jager also stated the closeness of the Rosecrans Avenue signal would be a benefit and went on to say, cross streets that 2
CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA ITEM #5.B.(1)(c) July 10, 2018 are located in closer proximity, as well as driveways, would act as a throttle and would cause an interruption between traveling vehicles and, therefore, would always have a clearance interval in between phases. Ms. Jager stated she would expect the proximity of the signal would enhance the number of gaps. Ms. Jager added that she understood from the last hearing there was a potential recommendation for an east bound right turn on red prohibition, heading east on Rosecrans Avenue, and said LLG did not see the need for that restriction, however, that the City could consider this restriction later if there was a major concern, but, again, that LLG did not see this as a necessity based on their results. Commissioner Langley asked if the radar surveys were conducted at the location of the project driveway, pointing north and south. Ms. Jager answered yes. Ms. Jager then stated, speeds further south in between signalized locations tend to be greater but clarified that the radar speed surveys were taken right at the project driveway. Chair Jackson asked if the applicant or anyone from the public wanted to speak. There were no comments made from the applicant or from the public. Chair Jackson closed the public hearing. Commissioner Langley asked if issues regarding the traffic volume at the intersection of Rosecrans Avenue and Van Ness Avenue were to arise would the project be brought back up to the Commission. Ms. Kranitz answered that it would be determined on how the Commission wanted to write the condition and stated that a condition could be added that if police perceived a problem of traffic accidents after full occupancy, then further conditions may be imposed to address these issues. Chair Jackson asked if that condition would quicken the time to get a traffic sign installed. Ms. Kranitz stated the condition would be there, therefore, yes. Commissioner Henderson asked the applicant if there would be any obstructions on the proposed project driveway that,would cause queuing of vehicles on the public str et. The applicant, Mitch Gardener, G3 Urban, 108 South Orange Grove Boulevard, Pasadena, CA 91105, stated that there would not be any obstructions on the driveway preventing a vehicle to compl tely drive onto the property and added that the driveway gate would be located 75 feet away from the public right of way. Commissioner Langley asked questions regarding the vacant lots adjacent to the project site and what was the requirements on providing access to these lots and how much access could be provided; could 500 cars a day go through that access. Ms. Kranitz stated with that high volume of vehicles a day she would have a believe that the owners of the other properties would say that it wouldn't be the purpose of the original easement and they have expanded beyond the scope to allow more vehicles. Ms. Kranitz added that the other properties are owned by the same people, for the land lock parcel and the parcel on Rosecrans, so there would be other access routes. Commissioner Langley asked if the remaining vacant area were to be developed if the easement would allow access through the subject property and to Van Ness Avenue. 3
CONSENT CALENDAR AGENDA ITEM #5.B.(1)(c) July 10, 2018 Ms. Kranitz stated that she believes that the access of the easement was never meant to be a main driveway access and even if it was the City could still do environmental review. MOTION: It was moved by Commissioner Langley and seconded by Commissioner Henderson to adopt Resolution No. PC 11-18, approving Site Plan Review #8-17, Administrative Adjustment #1-18, and Tentative Tract Map #1-17 subject to the Conditions of Approval with the added condition that if the Gardena Police Department determined that there was in increase in traffic accidents after full occupancy that requires changes, staff may impose additional conditions including the restriction of left turn movements during peak morning hours, and directing staff to file a Notice of Exemption. The motion passed by the following roll call vote: Ayes: Noes: Langley, Henderson, Sherman, Jackson Pierce ORAL COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE PUBLIC There were no oral communications from the public. GENERAL SERVICES DIRECTOR'S REPORT General Services Director Joseph Cruz informed the Planning Commission that the next regularly scheduled meeting Tuesday, June 19, has been canceled. PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY COMMISSION REPORTS Commissioner Langley asked if there was a way the City of Gardena could buy back one of the vacant properties that lie behind Rosecrans Avenue in order to provide access to all the vacant lots and therefore encourage further development. Ms. Kranitz stated the City would be in the same position as a private party in trying to negotiate a sale and added, that the current property owners of those lots were reluctant to sell or asking absorbent prices to sell. Ms. Kranitz then restated that there would not be any special tools that would put the City in a better position than anybody else. Chair Jackson asked about another property located on Rosecrans Avenue and stated that it had recently become a nuisance due to the lack of property maintenance. Ms. Kranitz stated that the Code Enforcement Division could investigate this issue. Chair Jackson wished a Happy Father's Day to all the fathers:present. 4
