CONTINUATION OF CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC HEARING RE: CONDITIONAL USE PEPaXIIT NO. 84-5 AND PARCEL MAp NO. 84-1109 (TARGET STORE, NotKql~qEST CORNER OF KATELLA AVENUE AND KNOTT S'rRuET). Ms. Eynon presented the staff report dated March 19, 1984, and indicated that, as a result of discussion at a meeting of the staff, members of the comnunity and representatives of Target Stores held earlier in the evening, the following additional conditions are recollnended for considera- tion as requirenlents for approval of the subject application: (1) that the hDurs of deliveries and trash pickup shall be limited on Saturdays to store hours and on Sundays not before 10 a.m.; (2) the driveway frcm Knott Avenue on the north property line shall have a sign posted that limits truck weight to a maximum which shall be specified in the future; (3) hours of construction shall be limited to frcra 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays, including Saturdays, and no construction shall take place on Sundays and federal holidays. Ms. Eynon stated that the itoh not resolved at the meeting was that of the wall along the north property line and what further construction or buffering should take place to shield the adjacent hcmes from noise and accessiblity to intruders from the commercial property. Mr. Emnett Alborghetti, 212 Via Ebely, Newport Beach, representing Target Stores, in answer to an inquiry by Councilman Mullen, stated that his corporation would be willing to limit any sunday deliveries to the weeks preceding Christmas and Easter. He further stated that each problem raised by the members of the ccranunity had been resolved to the satisfaction of all concerned except tb~tt of creating a buffer zone at the wall separating the store property frcln the hcmes, and that Target Stores is planning to plant Cypress trees at 7-fcot centers to provide adequate screening. He further stated that the cost of rebuilding and heightening the wall would be considered prohibitive by the conpany, but they would agree to a two-foot redwood extension at the top of the existing six-feet wall, if this were desired by the property owners. Ms. Eynon presented a slide showing similar trees which are presently planted behind Mervyn's Department Store, which is owned by the s~ne company to demon- strate the type of tree that is proposed. Mayor Partin then asked for a speaker representing those concerned about the project to address the Council. March 26, 1984 Mr. Thomas Woodruff, attorney and spokesperson for the residents of the area immediately adjacent to the proposed Target Store, stated t_hat it is requested that the Council give serious consideration to having the ccmpany replace the present sLx-foot wall with an eight-foot w~ll to reduce noise and the possibi- lity of trespassing, littering and criminal activity. CounciLmen Lacayo and M~llen both expressed reservations about requiring this wall to be rebuilt due to the precedential aspects that could be created in any future cases where a developer had not provided adequate walls between a resi- dential ar~ cc~m~rcial area, and they also stated that they felt that the planting of the Cypress trees would provide adequate screening and protection at this store. Councilman Lacayo further indicated that he feels the trees should be planted at the beginning of the construction as a shield frc~ the noise and nuisance of this activity and so that the growth period would be started as soon as possible to produce maximum fullness by the opening of the store. Councilman Kanel questioned the legal aspects of destroying an existing wall on any residential property where such structure might be secured under a deed of trust prohibiting such modification. Mr. Jerry Clark, Keith Engineering, representing the firm doing the engineering for the Target Stores project, stated that even if the wall were replaced, when the new grading is completed, it would only be approximately 12 inches higher than the existing height; ar~ he and Mr. Alborghetti agreed that the landscaping could take place and the Cypress trees planted when the grading is cc~pleted so that approximately ten months growth could take place before the store opening. Mr. Lonnie Breedlove, 10830 Via Jacara, stated that he believes the Cypress trees would be preferable to a redwood extension on the existing wall because of the future d~nage that might be caused by tree branches growing into the fence. COUNCILMAN CORONADO ARRIVED AT 8:50 P.M. After considerable discussion by the members of the Council, Councilman Mullen moved that the public hearing be closed and adopt the resolutiorsby title only, title as follows, approving Conditional Use Permit No. 84-5 and Parcel Map No. 84-1109, subject to the conditions contained in the staff report, and with the further provisions that the developer plant the buffer landscaping /mmediately upon cc~pletion of grading, using 15-gallon Cypress trees at 7-foot centers as planned, and adding the additional conditions that (1) the hours of delivery and trash pickup shall be limited on Saturdays to stere hours and that no deliveries shall take place on Sundays, with the exception of the period between Thanksgiving and Christmas and the four weeks immediately preceding Easter; (2) the driveway frcm Knott Avenue on the north property line shall have a sign posted limiting truck weight to a maximum which shall be deter- mined by the staff; and (3) during the construction period, hours of construc- tion shall be limited to frc~ 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays, including Saturdays, and no construction shall take place on Sundays and federal holidays.
