JUNE 28, 2005
PLN2005-70 Application of Mr. Eric B. Euren for an Administrative Planned Development
Euren, E. Permit to allow minor alterations to the fagade of an existing commercial
building located at 2341 S. Winchester Boulevard in the P-D (Planned
Development) Zoning District.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project consists of minor alterations to the facade of an existing commercial building
currently occupied by Safeway in the Campbell Plaza Shopping Center located at 2341 S.
Winchester Blvd.
The proposed modifications include a revised exterior color scheme for the front and sides of the
building, new gabled entry features over the existing store entrances, new stone column bases for
the existing columns along the front elevation, and the removal of an existing landscaping
planter near the cart storage azea along the front elevation. New moveable produce and floral
display stands as well as outdoor seating would be located near the entrances of the store.
BACKGROUND
The Safeway building was approved by the Planning Commission in February 1991 (S 90-11)
when the property was zoned C-2 (General Commercial) and the property was subsequently re-
zoned to P-D (Planned Development).
The Campbell Plaza Shopping Center is located on the southwest corner of Winchester
Boulevazd and Budd Avenue. The 11.3-acre shopping center is surrounded by commercial uses
and single-family residences to the north, commercial auto repair uses and multiple family
residences to the south, multiple family residences to the west and a church and commercial uses
to the east.
ANALYSIS
The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Central Commercial and the project
is compatible with this land use designation. The zoning designation for the project site is P-D.
An Administrative Planned Development Permit is required for minor exterior modifications to
an existing commercial building within the P-D zoning district.
The proposed project does not affect the square footage of the building and therefore does not
have an impact on the existing pazking for the project site.

alterations to the facade of an existing commercial building located at 2341 S. Winchester

The Community Development Director finds as follows with regard to File No. PLN2005-70:
1. The development of the proposed project will result in a use that is consistent with the
General Plan land use designation of Central Commercial.
2. The project will be consistent with the P-D (Planned Development) zoning district with
approval of an Administrative Planned Development Permit.
3. The Campbell Plaza Shopping Center is located on the southwest corner of Winchester
Boulevard and Budd Avenue. The 11.3-acre shopping center is surrounded by commercial
uses and single-family residences to the north, commercial auto repair uses and multiple
family residences to the south, multiple family residences to the west and a church and
commercial uses to the east
4. The proposed project does not affect the square footage of the building and therefore does
not have an impact on the existing parking for the project site.
5. The proposed modifications include a revised exterior color scheme for the front and sides of
the building, new gabled entry features over the existing store entrances, new stone column
bases for the existing columns along the front elevation, and the removal of an existing
landscaping planter near the cart storage area along the front elevation.

Facilities) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Community Development Director further finds and
concludes that:

than would be possible under any other zoning classification.
2. The development will be compatible with the General Plan of the City and will aid in the
harmonious development of the immediate area.

3. The development will be compatible with the Zoning Code of the City.
4. The proposed development will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of the
neighborhood or the City as a whole.
5. The parking will adequately meet the demands generated by the change in use, and will not
be detrimental to the overall parking and circulation in the area.
6. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of
approval and the impacts of the project.
7. There is a reasonable relationship between the use of the fees imposed upon the project and
the type of development project.
8. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument could be
made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the required conditions
of approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the environment.

Dear Mr. Euren:
Thank you for your application for facade improvement to the existing Safeway store located at
the above referenced address. The subject property is presently zoned P-D (Planned
Development) and is designated as Central Commercial on the City's General Plan Land Use
Map. The proposed project will require approval of the Administrative Planned Development
Permit by the Community Development Director. Your application has been deemed incomplete.
The following information and details are needed to complete your application:
1. Elevations: Please provide the following information on the elevations:
a. Submit elevations for all sides of the building and indicate any proposed
modifications.
b. Provide an accurate depiction of the existing signage for the structure.
2. Loading Area: The loading dock area for the building has been an on-going code
enforcement problem for the City. As part of this request, a new trash enclosure will be
required to replace the existing dilapidated chain link fence enclosure that is filled with trash.
The new enclosure shall be constructed of a solid six-foot masonry wall and shall match the
building in terms of colors and materials. The enclosure shall have a solid metal gate and
shall provide unobstructed access for collection vehicles and provide at least the minimum
clearance required by the collection methods and vehicles utilized by the designated
collector. Additionally, the trash and debris that has been dumped in the loading area needs
to be cleaned up prior to any permit approvals.
3. Signaae: The existing signage for the store should be reviewed and updated as part of the
fagade improvements. Staff recommends that the individual signs advertising "Pharmacy,"
"Deli/Bakery," and "China Express" be removed for a more coherent signage display.
Additionally, staff recommends that the "Safeway" sign be centered between the two front
entrances.
