Camino

a
request
for
conditional
use,
permit
an
architectural
review
permit
to
allow
the
expansion
of
an
existing
skilled
nursing
facility
for
chapters

Please
thank.
B
You,
as
stated
the
applicant,
is
proposing
an
expansion
to
the
existing
skilled
nursing
facility.
It's
located
at
the
corner
of
el
camino,
real
in
euclid,
and
those
are
narrow
blocks
at
that
location.
So
it's
also
bounded
by
hensley.
On
the
other
side,
the
site
is
approximately
thirty
thousand
four
hundred
square
feet.
The
existing
building
is
900
I'm,
sorry
9908
square
feet
and
was
built
in
1962.
B
There's
been
very
few
changes
to
the
building
since
that
time
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
services
that
they
do
provide
there,
since
this
type
of
use
is
not
before
us
very
often,
in
fact,
I'm
not
sure
if,
at
any
time
since
nineteen
sixty
two
we've
seen
an
application
like
this,
they
provide
nursing
care
and
they
provide
physical,
occupational
and
speech
therapy.
So
we
did
have
a
discussion
with
them
early
on
about.
Is
it
a
hospital
because
their
name
includes
that
word
hospital,
but
based
on
the
services
that
they
provide?
B
So
I'll
ask
the
applicant
to
do
that
as
he's
more
of
an
expert
in
that
area,
but
does
influence
how
the
design
has
been
laid
out
as
well
as
the
site.
So
the
edition
includes
capacity
for
six
new
beds,
as
I've
mentioned,
a
physical
therapy,
room
offices,
conference
room
and
a
new
nurse's
station.
So
the
application
is
really
about
keeping
up-to-date
with
the
needs
of
the
people
that
they
are
serving,
as
well
as
doing
on
a
small
increase
in
capacity.
B
So
as
such,
it's
designed
is
a
one-story
stucco
building
with
the
tallest
point
being
17
feet,
6
inches,
which
is
similar
to
the
height
of
some
of
the
houses
that
are
one
story:
split-level
and
two-story
in
the
adjacent
neighborhood
they're
proposing
aluminum
windows
that
do
have
some
architectural
detail
in
the
size
and
proportion
of
those
windows
and
those
windows
are
also
recessed
quite
deeply
in
most
cases.
So
that
does
provide
some
light
in
shadow
in
a
building
that
otherwise
is
somewhat
simple.
In
its
architectural
appearance,
they've
included
some
decorative
lighting
as
well
with
the
project.
B
They
would
change
the
parking
lot
configuration
somewhat.
They
would
close
the
curb
cut,
which
is
on
Euclid
Avenue.
It
is
substandard
today
and
not
not
well
used
in
steps
observation.
They
would
propose
a
new
curb
cut
on
Hensley
that
would
be
compliant
with
today's
code.
They
would
also
have
they
would
actually
reduce
the
number
of
parking
spaces,
but
they
are
proposing
18
fully
compliant
spaces.
B
The
spaces
that
have
been
out
there
in
the
drive
aisles
are
not
fully
compliant
with
the
code
today
and
it
would
include
new
landscaping
around
the
addition,
which
has
quite
a
bit
of
architectural
interest
in
and
in
the
rendering
that
you
received
it,
does
reflect
the
plant
choices
and
kind
of
the
color
and
scale
of
that
landscaping.
The
architectural
review
committee
reviewed
the
project
on
june
sixteenth.
The
staff
had
made
minor
recommendations.
Those
have
been
implemented
in
the
plans
that
you
have
in
front
of
you
in
large
part,
so
we'll
just
go
over
those
briefly.
B
We
recommend
it
as
a
new
sign
at
the
entrance
on
the
South
elevation,
because
it's
kind
of
a
new
main
entrance
to
the
building.
They
have
included
that
on
the
revised
plans,
we
asked
them
to
explore
the
possibility
of
a
monument
sign
towards
the
corner,
because
people
will
be
coming
around
the
corner
and
will
need
to
know
that
this
is
the
place
to
turn
in.
They
have
included
that
on
the
plans
as
well
as
landscaping
that
will
emphasize
the
new
front
entrance
they've
agreed
to
repaint
the
entire
existing
building
as
well.
B
There
was
some
discussion
and
architectural
review
about
lighting
and
about
some
green
building
measures.
The
applicant
has
requested
that
we
defer
those
two
items
to
the
time
of
building
permits.
The
middle
staff
does
feel
comfortable
with
that,
because
those
are
items
that
would
normally
be
considered
at
the
time
of
construction
detail,
and
so
what
we've
asked
them
to
do
is
to
create
a
lighting
plan,
a
photometric
plan
that
will
show
the
parking
lot
and
exactly
where
the
lights
will,
how
big
they
will
like
the
parking
lot.
B
We
want
to
ensure
that
the
parking
lot
is
safe,
but
also
not
over
light.
The
project,
since
there
are
residential
houses
directly
across
the
street,
so
staff
would
be
reviewing
that
at
the
time
of
building
permits
the
middle,
we
also
had
a
request
that
they
consider
the
possibility
of
installing
solar
panels
on
the
site.
There
are
some
limitations,
construction
limitations
on
installing
them
on
the
existing
building,
so
the
request
to
consider
them
on
the
new
building.
B
So
staff
will
be
asking
the
applicant
to
prepare
some
materials
and
to
submit
those
to
us
at
the
time
of
building,
permit
submittal
to
explain
why
or
why
not.
Solar
panels
may
be
feasible
at
that
location,
so
that
takes
care
of
the
architectural
review
committee
recommendations.
It
was
an
overall
favorable
recommendation
forward
to
the
full
Planning
Commission.
B
Staffs
on
a
courtesy
notice,
two
adjacent
neighbors
on
May
twenty-third,
as
well
as
a
legal
notice.
On
july
eight
we
did
receive
one
phone
call
from
a
property
owner
just
today,
and
he
reported
to
staff
that
sometimes
he
does
notice
that
employees
park
on
the
street.
Instead
of
always
in
the
parking
lot.
B
So
staff
would
like
to
add
a
condition
of
approval
tonight,
a
new
condition
number
nineteen
requiring
that
employees
park
in
the
parking
lot
and
not
in
the
public
street,
and
since
this
business
operates
at
multiple
hours
of
the
day,
and
they
have
a
range
of
the
kinds
of
professionals
that
work
there,
and
perhaps
some
of
those
employees
may
turn
over
more
frequently
some
of
the
aides
and
assistance.
We
would
like
to
add
to
that
condition
that
they
make
it
a
requirement
as
part
of
their
new
employee
training,
so
whatever
packet
they
gave
to
new
employees.
B
We
would
like
there
to
be
a
statement
in
there
that
employees
should
park
in
the
parking
lot
instead
of
on
the
public
street,
to
anticipate
the
fact
that
this
use
could
be
there
for
quite
some
time
and
we
don't
want
to
create
any
problems
over
the
years.
I'm
staff
would
also
like
to
point
out
a
unique
aspect
of
this
project
as
a
skilled
nursing
facility.
B
It
is
like
a
hospital
in
that
it
is
not
subject
to
our
local
building
code
Authority,
so
medical
buildings
are
subject
to
a
state
authority
for
building
code,
and
that
is
the
office
of
statewide,
Health,
Planning
and
Development
OSH
pod,
so
we've
heard
of
it,
but
we
haven't
frequently
seen
it
implemented
in
our
projects.
So
what
that
means
is
that
OSH
pod
will
do
the
plan
check
the
building
inspections
and
the
certificate
of
occupancy,
not
our
own
building
division.
B
So
this
is
unique
for
us
because,
as
you
well
know,
our
conditions
of
approval
are
normally
tied
to
the
building
permit
and
to
the
final
inspection
of
the
building
permit
and
their
certificate
of
occupancy.
So
considering
that
we
do
have
several
unique
conditions.
I'm
related
to
this
project,
so
I
would
like
to
go
over
those,
since
those
are
different
than
what
we're
used
to
seeing
so
conditions
of
approval
are
on
page
seven
and
starting
with
condition
number
three.
This
is
quite
unique.
B
We
are
requesting
that
the
applicant
make
a
deposit
of
five
thousand
dollars
to
the
community
development
department
to
ensure
that
all
conditions
of
approval
are
met.
The
use
permit
in
Architectural
Review
permit
would
not
be
valid
until
this
deposit
is
made
once
the
project
is
complete
and
all
the
conditions
are
met.
The
Community,
Development
Department
would
refund
this
deposit
in
full
to
the
applicant.
So
this
is
insurance
if
you
would
to
make
sure
that
they
comply
with
all
the
conditions
of
approval
number,
for
this
is
somewhat
obvious,
but
a
new
condition
for
us.
B
Considering
this
current
project,
they
must
comply
with
all
ash
cloud
requirements,
condition
number
six.
They
still
must
secure
a
building
permit
for
the
work
that
is
not
covered
by
osh
pod
review.
So
staff
has
been
in
contact
with
the
OSH
pod
staff
and,
as
we
understand
that
ash
pod
will
review
all
elements
of
the
actual
building
footprint
things
that
are
attached
to
the
building
that
are
used
for
medical
purposes.
Other
aspects
of
the
site
still
fall
into
our
purview
and
review,
so
they
would
need
to
get
a
building
permit.
A
B
A
A
B
A
B
B
Problem,
we're
expecting
them
to
do
kind
of
a
concurrent
review
and
that's
the
way
we've
we've
listed.
The
conditions
of
approval
I
do
understand
that
the
osh
Potter
review
can
be
quite
a
bit
longer
than
ours.
So
we've
tried
to
structure
the
conditions,
knowing
that
that's
going
to
drive
the
timeline
and
not
our
review
process.
C
B
Other
thing
I
wanted
to
note:
is
that
condition
number
seven.
As
you
know,
we
always
have
a
pre-construction
meeting
for
commercial
and
residential
projects.
What
we've
requested
that
they
do
is
that
once
they've
gotten
through
their
OSH
pod
plan,
check
review
to
then
come
back
and
schedule
a
meeting
with
us.
Look
at
the
plans
that
are
approved
by
osh
pod
and
make
sure
that
everything
is
lining
up,
so
the
building
permit
required
from
us
the
building
permit
required
from
osh
pod
the
conditions
of
approval
from
the
Planning
Commission.
B
B
So
in
conclusion,
after
all
of
that
staff
does
recommend
approval
of
the
project.
We
find
that
the
project
would
provide
a
needed
service
in
this
community
demographically.
The
needs
of
these
kinds
of
services
are
increasing
in
our
city
and
and
everywhere
because
of
demographic
shifts.
The
project
is
designed
to
transition
into
the
adjacent
adjacent
residential
neighborhood
and
is
considerate
of
those
residential
neighbors.
It
does
meet
the
parking
requirements
of
the
Municipal
Code
and
increases
the
appearance
of
the
rear
parking
lot
and
the
landscaping
adjacent
to
the
residential
neighbors.
B
So
we
recommend
approval
based
on
findings
of
fact,
1
through
10
and
the
conditions
of
approval
1
through
18
in
the
staff
report,
with
the
addition
of
the
new
condition
19
that
I
discussed
about
employees
parking
on
site
and
including
that
information
and
training
materials.
So
I
would
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Any.
C
B
C
I
think
I
sounded
that
arc
review
meeting
as
well.
If
memory
serves
me
right,
I,
don't
maybe
I'm
wrong,
but
I
thought
that
the
applicant
told
us
that
that
the
fence
and
whatever
the
signage
in
the
front
was
not
a
their
purview.
You
know
my
my
mistaken
on
that
I
thought
we
had
that
discussion,
I
and
maybe
I'm
thinking
of
something
different,
but
I
thought
we.
A
E
My
name
is
Steve
Kiki
I'm,
the
architect
with
MSW
any
services,
the
addresses
3551,
Pegasus,
Avenue,
Bakersfield,
California,
Thank,
You
Commission
for
hosting
us
tonight,
and
hearing
my
project
I've
gone
through
the
staff
report
and
want
to
thank
Laura
also
for
the
hard
work
she's
done
over
the
course
of
this
project,
and
we
have
no
exceptions
to
the
staff
report
and
I'll.
Just
take
this
opportunity
to
clarify
a
couple
of
things.
E
Commissioner
chase
I
think
one
of
the
issues
was
the
fence
which
actually
there
is
an
item
in
one
of
the
conditions
dealt
with
graffiti
and
I,
think
that
was
what
was
actually
mentioned.
There
was
one
little
bit
of
graffiti
on
the
north
face
along
euclid
on
the
fence.
Otherwise
the
fence
is
not
in
terrible
repair,
but
it
does
occasionally
get
a
little
bit
of
graffiti.
E
One
of
the
other
issues
that
was
mentioned
was
the
delicacy
of
adding,
in
addition
to
a
building
that
was
built
in
nineteen,
sixty
two
and
has
to
meet
oz
pod
requirements.
Obviously
the
seismic
and
wind
and
all
kinds
of
regulations
have
changed
since
nineteen
sixty
two,
so
the
problem
we
face
today
is
if
we
were
to
do
anything
to
that
building
built
in
1962
or
to
any
degree
it
would
all
have
to
be
brought
up
to
current
code.
There's
really
not
much
of
a
way
to
do
that,
except
to
scrape
it
and
start
over.
E
At
this
point,
as
well,
I've
talked
to
several
different
solar
companies
about
the
panel
situation
on
that
roof
and
the
one
thing
the
one
hiccup
or
uncertainty
at
this
point
is
any
facility
like
this.
We
have
emergency
power,
so
when
you
know
the
big
storm
hits
and
the
power
goes
out
like
that,
our
type
of
facility,
the
power
has
to
come
on.
Just
like
that
as
well.
E
So
that's
the
issue
right
now
with
the
solar
panels,
is
how
we
interface
a
solar
panel
use
with
a
building
that
is
completely
dependent
on
emergency
power
at
times
and
how
I
do
the
switching
over
and
the
segregating
so
that
we
don't
end
up
with
a
situation
where
the
soulers
functioning
and
and
feeding,
and
when
we,
you
know,
switch
to
emergency
power.
They
aren't
just
they're,
not
really
certain
of
that
hat,
so
we're
doing
the
homework
and
will
submit
the
study
prior
to
get
a
building
permit,
getting
a
building
permit
outside
of
that
I.
A
E
A
D
E
D
E
The
design
of
the
building
as
it
stands
now
the
building
kind
of
tucks
in
at
the
corners.
So
there's
really
a
good
opportunity
and
I
think
staff
recommending
it
to
put
a
monument
sign
on
that
corner
that
will
kind
of
sit
at
a
45.
So
it
can
be
seen
from
just
about
every
direction
and
we
have
room
for
it
so
we're
you
know
we'll
certainly
certainly
participate
in
the
design
of
that
sign
and
making
sure
that's
architectural
e
compatible
with
the
other
things
we're
doing
well.
D
A
E
Not
in
this
particular
facility
but
I'm
doing
nine
other
different
projects
for
the
same
ownership
group
and
they
own
I,
don't
know
seven
or
eight
in
the
Bay
Area,
most
of
them
in
the
east
bay.
They
owned
several
in
Southern
California
and
developing
some
new
ones,
we're
currently
in
the
planning
loop
in
fremont,
with
a
four-story
62
bed
very
high-end
facility.
Of
the
same
nature.
I
wish
you
were
the
planning
commission
in
fremont.
E
E
It's
on
the
various
different
websites
that
rate
these
places
and
and
that
one
is
a
state-run
website,
so
they
just
relate
their
infractions
and
their
write
ups
for
this,
and
that
and
things
like
that,
others
are
using
your
user
oriented
websites
where
it's
families
and
and
people
that
are,
you
know
commenting.
So
it
is
very
refreshing
to
see
a
group
that,
because
so
many
of
these
I
mean
that
the
majority
of
them,
it's
mostly
negative
comments
and.

Dates

09-
and
you
know
I,
don't
remember
the
exact
wording
of
that
I
would
say
just
based
on
what
I
know
about
simple
wood
frame
structures
that
you
have
pretty
good
sections
of
solid
wall.
And
then
you
know
the
windows
are
kind
of
large,
but
they
aren't
extra
large
in
the
ratio
of
wall
to
window.
There's
a
lot
more
wall
than
there
is
window
so
being
a
simple
wood
frame
structure.
E
I
would
say
that
that's
probably
going
to
in
one
story:
that's
going
to
be
pretty
sound
in
an
earthquake,
that's
not
to
say
built
in
62.
It
probably
didn't
have
all
the
hold
downs,
all
the
hardware,
all
the
the
tie-ins
from
the
wall,
to
the
roof
structure
that
and
that's
really
where,
where
it's
just
substandard
and
there's
just
no
way
to
really
calculate
it.
You
know
for
for
what
was
done.
You
know
what
sits
there
today,
I'm
sure
the
engineer
that
designed
it
then
calculated.
Maybe
that
would
be
the
way
to
do
it.
E
A
E
A
I'd
like
to
remarried
heartily
to
you
simply
because
number
one,
it's
highly
likely
that
there
are
some
issues
there
and
whatever
issues
you
find.
When
you
do
that
remedial
work,
it
will
make
the
structure
that
much
better
able
to
stand
and
earth
as
I
agree
with
you
is
from
my
structural
knowledge,
single-family
or
single
storey.
Buildings.
Wood
frame
do
a
good
job
of
standing
on
foot.
The
other
observation
I
have
would
apply
both
to
the
existing
and
the
new,
and
that
is
since
you're
going
to,
and
this
is
an
energy
potential
energy
savings.
A
The
new
energy
glass
that
reduces
the
transmission
of
heat
and
ultraviolet
light
I
suspect
that
it
would
both
save
you,
energy,
by
reducing
the
heat
load
on
that
building
and
also
make
it
easier
on
your
staff
and
patients.
Because
anytime
people
are
in
the
in
the
Rays
of
the
Sun,
they
can
get
pretty
warm.
