Respect ll bmitted, ��z �el Kevin Wilson, P.E. Director of Community Services & Water SKW/sc Attachments cc: City Attorney STAFF REPORT BCBG MAXAZRIA GROUP, INC 4701 SANTA FE AVENUE VARIANCE APPLICATION June 5, 2007 BCBG Maxazria Group, Inc (`BCBG") an apparel manufacturer and distributor, has requested a variance from Section 26.4.2-8(b) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, Development Standards. BCBG is in the process of occupying the entire building at 4701 Santa Fe Avenue, approximately 224,854 square feet in size. However, a portion of this building (The 2nd Floor — approx. 112,427 sq. ft.) has been vacant for more than one year. So in order to occupy the entire building as an accessory warehouse it must be brought into compliance with all the current codes, which includes automobile parking, truck parking, loading, and maneuvering. Pursuant to Section 26.4.6-7 of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of the City of Vernon requires that if a non- conforming building or any portion of a non -conforming building is left vacant for a continuous period of at least one year, then it shall not thereafter be occupied except in the case that it has been brought into conformity with all of the regulations of the zone which it is located. Due to the space constraints within the existing lot, the current parking requirements would force BCBG to demolish portions of its building in order to meet the current parking and loading requirements. According to the current parking requirements, 230 parking stalls and 25 trucks stalls are required by the Code. The subject site can only -1- provide 85 parking stalls, and 10 truck stalls, which is 145 parking stalls short and 15 truck stalls short from the requirements. However, BCBG has obtained a lease from a property owner at 2651 45 b Street, which will allow them to provide the requisite number of parking spaces and therefore is requesting a variance from Section 26.4.2-8(b) of the municipal code. REASON FOR VARIANCE BCBG is proposing to expand its operations by acquiring an additional building. The property site is located at 4701 Santa Fe Avenue. This building will be used as an accessory warehouse for their existing manufacturing facility. The accessory warehouse will operate as an integral part of BCBG's manufacturing process and store goods produced in the City. As previously mentioned, a portion of this building (The 2nd Floor — approx. 112,427 sq. ft.) has been vacant for more than one year. In order to occupy the entire building as an accessory warehouse it must be brought into compliance with all the current codes, which includes automobile parking, truck parking, loading, and maneuvering. Due to the space constraints on their existing lot, the possibility of providing additional parking is remote without the demolition of onsite improvements. However, BCBG has obtained a lease from a property owner at 2651 45`" Street, which will allow them to provide the requisite number of parking spaces and BCBG is therefore requesting a variance from Section 26.4.2-8(b) of the municipal code. -2- VARIANCE METHODOLOGY BCBG is requesting a variance from the covenant recordation requirement and distance requirement of Section 26.4.2-8(b) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. Section 26.4.2-8(b) states that all required parking facilities shall be located on the same parcel or lot as the use or occupancy for which the parking is being provided or such required parking facilities may be provided on a separate parcel or lot. If provided on a separate lot or parcel, a covenant shall be recorded restricting the use of the property to parking use for the benefit of the use requiring the parking. Such separate parcel shall be within one thousand (1,000) feet from the main building or use, measured as walking distance from such building to the main entrance of the parking facility, and evidence shall be filed with the City of Vernon assuring the use of such parcel is limited to parking purposes in connection with that particular use or occupancy requiring the parking so long as such use exists. BCBG is proposing to use a separate parcel that it is leasing at 2651 45t' Street for the location of required automobile parking and truck parking. The property owner at 2651 45t' Street will not execute a covenant restricting the use of its property to parking. BCBG has indicated that if it loses its lease, then BCBG is prepared to acquire additional land for parking or remove a portion of the structure at 4701 Santa Fe Avenue to meet the parking requirements. PARKING ANALYSIS The property site is a preexisting site that was constructed in accordance to development standards when it was originally constructed. BCBG is proposing to occupy -3- the entire building as an accessory warehouse. However, a portion of the building has been vacant for a continuous period of more than one year and therefore it is required to come into complete compliance with the automobile parking, truck parking, truck loading, and maneuvering requirements of the current City of Vernon Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. BCBG has obtained a lease from a property, which will allow them to provide the requisite number of parking spaces. The amount of parking spaces required by the Vernon Code is 230 and the amount of truck spaces required is 25 spaces. BCBG will be providing 10 truck stalls and 85 parking spaces. One hundred forty-five (145) automobile parking spaces and 15 truck parking stalls will be located in a separate parcel. As previously mentioned, BCBG has obtained a lease from the property owner at 2651 45"' Street, which will allow them to provide the requisite number of parking spaces. The lot is located approximately 2,500 feet as measured along the road from 4701 Santa Fe Avenue. Shuttle services will be provided by BCBG. The City's parking requirements are based, in part, on the type of use to which the building is being put. Industrial and manufacturing uses, warehouses, wholesale uses, public facilities and similar uses require one space per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area for automobiles. VCC Sec. 26.4.2-6. Retail and commercial uses, general offices, and similar uses other than set forth in the code or any other uses not defined or specified require one space per 500 square feet of gross floor area for automobiles. Id. Floor area is defined as "the total of all floors contained within the exterior walls of all buildings -4- measured by the exterior dimensions of the building, on a lot or parcel of land." VCC 26.2.6. In addition, according to Section 26.4.2-8(b) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, parking spaces may be provided for on a separate lot within one thousand (1,000) feet from the main building. The code requires a covenant to be recorded restricting the property to parking for the benefit of the subject lot. BCBG has entered into an agreement to lease parking on the separate lot. The owner of the property that will provide the parking spaces does not want to record a covenant. CEQA REVIEW The proposed site is surrounded by industrial uses compatible with the proposed operation. No potentially significant impacts are expected to result from noise, odor, dust, smoke, light or glare from the project. The project is categorically exempt under Section 15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act because it is an existing facility. A Notice of Exemption will be prepared and filed with the County Clerk. STAFF FINDING AND CONDITIONS Staff proposes the following findings as required by Section 26.5.1-6, of the City of Vernon Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance: a) As previously mentioned BCBG has acquired a building located at 4701 Santa Fe Avenue, approximately 224,854 square feet in size. The building will be used as an accessory warehouse. A portion of the building has been vacant for a continuous period of more than one year and therefore it is required to come into complete -5- compliance with the automobile parking, truck parking, truck loading, and maneuvering requirements of the current City of Vernon Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. Due to space constraints within the existing lot, the parking and maneuvering cannot fully be provided for on the 4701 Santa Fe Avenue property without demolition of existing improvements. BCBG has been unable to acquire additional land for parking but has been able to lease a separate lot for parking. Strict compliance with the City's automobile parking and truck parking requirements would force BCBG to demolish portions of the existing facility in order to provide additional required parking spaces. Alternatively, Section 26.4.2-8(b) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance permits the use of a separate parcel for required automobile parking if the parcel or lot is within 1,000 feet of the main building or use, a covenant restricting parking be recorded or evidence of the parking restriction be provided to the City so long as the use exists. BCBG proposes to use a separate parcel for required automobile parking. The separate lot is owned by 45 h Street, LLC and they will not allow the recordation of a covenant restricting the land for parking use. BCBG will enter into a lease agreement for the property and agrees to use the land for automobile parking and truck parking. BCBG also agrees to obtain parking and comply with the automobile and truck parking requirements in the event it should lose its lease. Granting BCBG a variance from the covenant recordation requirement of Section 26.4.2-8(b) is appropriate given the unique circumstances and the hardship of following strict compliance with the automobile parking requirements. 0 b) A variance relieving BCBG from the covenant recordation requirement will not adversely affect the interest of the public or the interest of other residents and property owners within the vicinity of the premises because this variance is a mechanism of ensuring the automobile and truck parking requirements are met. BCBG has agreed to obtain parking on a separate lot and shall obtain other automobile and truck parking if it should lose its lease. In addition BCBG will provide shuttle service between the lots. c) With the approval of this variance of Section 26.4.2-8(b), BCBG will bring its nonconforming automobile and truck parking spaces into compliance and its facility will then meet the number of automobile parking spaces required by the City of Vernon Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. The operation is in conformance with the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and the General Plan. Therefore it is recommended that the variance be granted with the following conditions imposed on the permit to adequately protect the public interests: a) The facility shall be operated in accordance with all current codes, rules, and regulations and subject to permit fees as adopted by the City of Vernon. b) The facility shall be operated in a manner that will prevent unsanitary conditions, odors or other nuisances. c) All parking and loading areas necessary for BCBG operations shall be striped in an acceptable manner to the Director of Community Services & Water and shall be paved with a hard durable surface material and shall be adequately drained, and kept free of dust, mud, trash and weeds. Where parking or maneuvering areas adjoin the -7- public street, a barrier wall or landscaping shall be maintained to meet City standards. Adequate on -site parking shall be maintained so that no on -street parking or staging will occur. d) The project site shall be maintained substantially in compliance with the site plan submitted, as part of this variance application. e) BCBG shall maintain a lease with 45"' Street, LLC to provide the parking in conformance with the City Code. If the lease expires or is terminated for any reason, BCBG shall either cease operation, reduce the size of the operation as determined by the City of Vernon so that sufficient parking is provided or provide substitute parking at a location within one thousand feet walking distance and which site and parking configuration shall be approved by the Director of Community Services & Water. f) BCBG shall maintain adequate shuttle service between the subject properties (4701 Santa Fe Avenue & 2651 45t' Street) so that no employee/person shall have to wait in excess of 30 minutes to be transported between the sites.

Signed: Property owner(s) or own�er(s) representative && wo Page 3 of 3 SUBJECT: 4701 S. Santa Fe Avenue Vernon, CA 90058 DESCRIPTION: Variance applied for (described in detail the nature and purpose of this request for which the premises are to be used) attach additional sheet(s) if necessary. Pursuant to Section 26.4.6-7 of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of the City of Vernon requires that if a non -conforming building or any portion of a non -conforming building is left vacant for a continuous period of at least one year, then it shall not thereafter be occupied except in the case that it has been brought into conformity with all of the regulations of the zone which it is located. Portion of this building at 4701 Santa Fe Avenue (The 2"d Floor — approx. 112,427 sq. ft.) has been vacant for more than one year. So in order to occupy the entire building as an accessory warehouse it must be brought into compliance with all the current codes, which includes automobile parking, truck parking, loading, and maneuvering. The building was constructed in accordance to development standards when it was originally constructed. Due to the space constraints within the existing lot, the current parking requirements would force BCBG to demolish portions of its building in order to meet the current parking and loading requirements. The building is approximately 224,854 square feet in size and according to the current parking requirements, 230 parking stalls and 25 trucks stalls are required by the Code. The subject site can only provide 85 parking stalls, and 10 truck stalls, which is 145 parking's short and 15 truck stalls short from the requirements. However, BCBG has obtained a lease from a property owner at 2651 45th Street, which will allow them to provide the requisite number of parking spaces and therefore requesting a variance from Section 26.4.2-8(b) of the municipal code. VARIANCE FINDINGS: 1. That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not generally applicable to other lands, structures, or buildings in the same vicinity and zone: The subject lot is approximately 4.05 acres rectangular shape lot on the northwest corner of Santa Fe Avenue and 48th Street. The building is approximately 224,854 square feet in size. The existing structure covers a large area of the site, rendering car and truck parking and loading to meet current City requirement difficult. Due to the existing layout of the building location, the space does not conform to current development standards. The circumstance of the existing footprint of the structure is peculiar to this site does not apply to other properties in the same vicinity and zone. 2. That literal interpretation of the provisions of this ordinance would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other propertied in the same vicinity and zone in which the property is located, under the terms of this chapter: Due to the large footprint of the existing structure on the site, requiring the car parking and truck parking and loading to meet the current development standards would substantially deprive the applicant of rights enjoyed by other properties in the same vicinity, but denied to the subject. 3. That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from actions of the applicant: The building was constructed in accordance to the development standards when it was originally constructed. The circumstances on the site and building were not actions of the applicant. BCBG recently purchased the property. 4. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this Chapter to other lands, structures, or buildings in the same vicinity and zone in which the property is located: Due to the extenuating existing physical circumstances on the building, the granting of this variance does in no way constitute any grant of special privilege to the subject property, but denied to other properties in the same vicinity and zone. 5. That the granting of such variance will be in harmony and not adversely affect the Comprehensive General Plan: The granting of such variance will not adversely affect the City's General Plan. ��O' 12 April 2007 S�°/G• City of Vernon 4305 Santa Fe Ave Vernon, Ca 90058 Attn: Sergio Canales Re: Authorization to Represent BCBG Max Azria Group, Azria Family for purposes of Variances, CUP and Construction Permitting related to properties in the City of Vernon.

VERJ1-- '1 4• O� s SfVELY \NOJ COMMUNITY SERVICES & WATER DEPARTMENT OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Manuela Giron, City Clerk FROM: Samuel Kevin Wilson,�Director of Community Services & Water DATE: June 4, 2007 SUBJECT: Variance — BCBG Maxazria Group, Inc. located at 4701 Santa Fe Avenue BCBG Maxazria Group, Inc (BCBG) has submitted a complete application for a variance from Section 26.4.2-8(b) which allows parking to be provided on a separate lot within one thousand feet from the main building. BCBG is in the process of occupying the entire building at 4701 Santa Fe Avenue, approximately 224,854 square feet in size. However, a portion of this building (The 2" Floor — approx. 112,427 sq. ft.) has been vacant for more than one year. So in order to occupy the entire building as an accessory warehouse it must be brought into compliance with all the current codes, which includes automobile parking, truck parking, loading, and maneuvering. Pursuant to Section 26.4.6-7 of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of the City of Vernon requires that if a non -conforming building or any portion of a non -conforming building is left vacant for a continuous period of at least one year, then it shall not thereafter be occupied except in the case that it has been brought into conformity with all of the regulations of the zone which it is located. .Due to the space constraints within the existing lot, the current parking requirements would force BCBG to demolish portions of its building in order to meet the current parking and loading requirements. According to the current parking requirements, 230 parking stalls and 25 trucks stalls are required by the Code. The subject site can only provide 85 parking stalls, and 10 truck stalls, which is 145 parking stalls short and 15 truck stalls short from the requirements. However, BCBG has obtained a lease from a property owner at 2651 45`t' Street, which will allow them to provide the requisite number of parking spaces and therefore is requesting a variance from Section 26.4.2-8(b) of the municipal code It is recommended that you receive this application and that a public hearing be set for June 19, 2007.
