9 Orange County Airport Land Use Commission Request for Determination of Consistency With Fullerton AELUP City Ventures-Buena Park Mixed Use Project/Auto Center Specific Plan Amendment A. Project Description City Ventures, LLC is proposing a development plan consisting of an approximately 149 for-sale townhomes, an approximately 102-room hotel and a future new automobile sales auto dealership on approximately 14.7 acres of land in the City of Buena Park. The townhomes would occupy 8.5 acres in the northern part of the site, and these would all be constructed in three-story structures, with a maximum building height of 45 feet. Automobile parking would be provided in 298 attached garage spaces plus 130 open surface spaces, plus another 19 on-street spaces along Rostrata Avenue. A 21,750 square feet central recreation area for the residents is included in the townhome plan. The two-acre hotel site would include a four-story structure, containing approximately 66,775 square feet, with a maximum building height of 56 feet, along with 102 open, surface-level vehicle parking spaces surrounding the hotel building. The auto sales dealership plan is conceptual at this time, since no dealers have committed to develop on this site; however, a facility of approximately 40-45,000 square feet of building area is anticipated, with sales, administrative, display, outside storage, vehicle repair bays, surface parking, etc. to occupy the approximately 4-acre site. The building(s) could be single or two-story in height. Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in late 2014, with full occupancy of all uses projected by The project site is located within Sub-District A4 of the Buena Park Auto Center Specific Plan (ACSP). The ACSP currently designates this site for automobile sales and leasing businesses, flood control and utility facilities, retail sales businesses, hotels, and a variety of other commercial land uses and associated accessory uses typically found in a retail area. Residential uses are currently not included in the range of permitted uses. The City s General Plan designates this site for Commercial land uses. The proposed project would require an amendment to the Buena Park General Plan to authorize the proposed residential land use. It would also require an amendment to the ACSP to allow the proposed residential land use, to specify the locations of the proposed hotel, residential and auto dealership sites. Other City approvals required for this project include a Tentative Subdivision Map to create individual development sites for the three land uses, to create a condominium subdivision with individual air space ownership rights for the proposed townhomes, and to assign appropriate identifications for any common areas. A Development Agreement is proposed to authorize the proposed development plan and to establish financial terms and levels of participation by the City and the Applicant. B. Project Location As shown on the attached Project Location exhibit, the project site is situated at the northwest corner of Artesia Boulevard and Rostrata Avenue, in the City of Buena Park. The I-5/Artesia Boulevard freeway interchange northbound ramps are immediately to the south, providing convenient access from the regional transportation network. The southeast corner of the Site is located 1.17 miles west of the Fullerton Municipal Airport. C. Existing and Proposed General Plan Designations The Buena Park General Plan currently designates the Site as Commercial. A General Plan Amendment is proposed to designate the proposed 8.5 acre townhome site as High Density Residential. 1

10 Orange County Airport Land Use Commission Request for Determination of Consistency With Fullerton AELUP City Ventures-Buena Park Mixed Use Project/Auto Center Specific Plan Amendment D. Land Uses on and Surrounding Project Site The Site is currently vacant. It was previously developed with a Nabisco Foods processing plant that operated between 1964 and the late-1990s. The Nabisco facilities were demolished and removed by The Site is in a fully urbanized area surrounded by a variety of light industrial uses to the north, south and west, a mixture of residential uses to the east, and the Carpenters Union Training Center is adjacent on the west. An aerial view of the existing land use pattern is provided in the Project Location exhibit. E. Approval Schedule Preparation of an environmental impact evaluation under CEQA is in process. Project approvals are tentatively scheduled to be considered by the Buena Park City Council in October F. Airport Noise Contours The Site lies several hundred feet beyond (west and north of) the 60 CNEL airport noise contour that is depicted on Exhibit A in Resolution No adopted by the Orange County ALUC, and contained within Appendix C of the Fullerton Municipal Airport Environs Land Use Plan (AELUP). ALUC staff have confirmed that the Site lies well beyond the 2002 or CNEL noise contours 1. This Site is, therefore, not significantly impacted by air traffic noise associated with the Fullerton Airport. G. Runway Protection and Accident Potential Zones The Site lies thousands of feet beyond the westernmost accidental potential zones identified for the Fullerton Airport, as depicted on the exhibit entitled Airport Impact Zones Fullerton Municipal Airport, found within Appendix D of the AELUP. This project would not, therefore, be exposed to significant hazards due to proximity to the airport accident potential zones. H. Height Restriction Zone The Site lies within the outer edge of the Height Restriction Zones depicted on the exhibit entitled FAR Part 77 Fullerton Municipal Airport Notification Area: 10,000 Foot Radius at 50:1 Slope, found within Appendix D of the AELUP. Buildings in the project site area are restricted to a maximum height of approximately 219 to 235 feet above mean sea level 2. Average ground elevation at the project Site is 70 feet above sea level. The proposed townhomes would have a maximum building height of 45 feet and the proposed three-story hotel would have a maximum building height of 56 feet. The future auto dealer buildings would be no higher than two-stories/35 feet high. The proposed buildings would reach a maximum height of approximately 126 feet above sea level, which is 93 feet lower than the lowest permitted elevation in the 50:1 Slope Zone. This project would not, therefore, conflict with the height restrictions established for this area. 1 See correspondence from Lea Choum, ALUC, March 25, Maximum building height elevations provided by Orange County Airport Land Use Commission staff on March 25, 2014 (see attached correspondence between Lea Choum of ALUC and Randy Nichols of p3 services). 2

11 Orange County Airport Land Use Commission Request for Determination of Consistency With Fullerton AELUP City Ventures-Buena Park Mixed Use Project/Auto Center Specific Plan Amendment Further, the Site lies hundreds of feet beyond the outermost ring of the FAR Part 77 Imaginary Surfaces established for the Fullerton Airport, as depicted on the exhibit entitled FAR Part 77 Fullerton Municipal Airport Obstruction Imaginary Surfaces, found in Appendix D of the AELUP. This restricted space is also referred to as the 20:1 Conical Surface Area. Maximum building heights on the Site defined by ALUC for this 20:1 Conical Surface area range from feet above sea level. 3 The proposed structures would reach a maximum height of 126 feet AMSL; therefore, they would not project into this restricted air space. I. Relevant CEQA Documentation An Initial Study is underway to examine the environmental impacts of the proposed project, pursuant to CEQA. The Initial Study will incorporate the above findings regarding less than significant impacts involving airport traffic noise and safety risks associated with runway hazards and no impact involving obstructions of air traffic space. 3 See attached correspondence between ALUC staff and p3 services. 3

I am compiling materials for the City of Buena Park to submit for an ALUC consistency determination, for a new development proposal in Buena Park, at the NW corner of Artesia Blvd./Rostrata Avenue. This site falls in the outer edge of the Fullerton Airport's FAA Height Restriction Zone, but I am not finding any info within the AELUP that defines the actual building height limits in this area, in terms of # of feet above ground level. We want to define the limit within our ALUC submittal so we can easily demonstrate that the proposed three-story structures are well below the height restriction limit. Can you send me any materials that define the applicable height limits defined for the Buena Park area? -- Randy A. Nichols, LEED GA Principal Consultant, p3 services Moulton Parkway, Ste.
