Development Code, Public Workshop
August 22, 1996
Monday night's workshop marks an important step in the 18 month task of
creating a comprehensive Development Code. The primary purpose of this
workshop is to "kick-off" this process by providing a forum for public input
and questions, introducing the consultant team to the Planning Commission
and presenting a brief overview of the purpose and intent of the new
Development Code and its importance as the primary implementing tool for
the City'sGeneral Plan.
Attached for your information is a copy of the workshop agenda and the
project schedule as outlined by the consultant team. Also included is an
additional copy of the original Request for Proposal, previously transmitted
to the Commission several. months ago. This document has been included
because it provides a general overview of the . Development Code process
and identifies the major issues to be addressed by the new Code.
City of Diamond Bar - Comprehensive Development Code Project Schedule
4. PROPOSED PROJECT SCHEDULE
Our proposed time schedule for the Diamond Bar Development Code anticipates
completion of the administrative draft Development Code within approximately 9
months from a notice to proceed from the City (see next page). Our experience with
other similar projects suggests that the critical path in meeting this schedule is the time
required by City staff to review the individual segments of the administrative draft in
order to provide direction to the consultants for any desired changes. Adoption of the
Code and the preparation of final documents is dependent upon the scheduling of
Planning Commission and City Council workshops and hearings, but could be
completed within a total of 18 months.

COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT CODE
REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
The City of Diamond Bar is seeking proposals from qualified consulting firms to prepare a
,comprehensive Development Code. The City's goal is a user friendly document consisting of
updated and expanded zoning, subdivision, and design standards with improved definitions,
standards and clarity, updated to reflect current law which will be responsive to the newly
adopted General Plan, goals and policies.
1. PROJECT BACKGROUND
The City of Diamond Bar is located in the southeast corner of Los Angeles County, at
the intersection of Los Angeles, Orange and San Bernardino Counties. Situated at the
C� t:1
eastern end of the San Gabriel Valley, the City is located at the junction of the 57 and
60 freeways. Characterized by rolling hills and valleys, Diamond Bar is well known
as a hillside residential community with outstanding views of natural -slopes and
ridgelines.
The City of Diamond Bar began as "Rancho Los Nogales" after a Spanish land grant
in 1840 and at its height was one of the largest cattle and walnut ranches in Southern
California. In 1956, the .ranch was purchased by the Christiana Oil Corporation and
the Capital Oil Company. Although conceived as one of the first master -planned
communities in the County, Diamond Bar has developed primarily as individual and
unrelated residential tracts, with minimal commercial 'and. other non-residential land
uses. After developing tinder the jurisdiction of the County for nearly 30 years,
Diamond Bar incorporated in 1989.
The City is currently operating under the Los' Angeles County Code which was
adopted upon incorporation. Since that time the City modified and expanded this
Code to reflect local issues and the mandates of recent State legislation. This has
included a major revision to the Commercial Manufacturing Zone, and several
additions adopted as ordinances addressing development review, expanded sign
regulations, hillside management, congestion management, water efficient
landscaping, property maintenance and revised sideyard setback requirements.
1
After a lengthy effort the City adopted a General Plan on July 25, 1995. The General
Plan establishes goals and strategies to implement the community's vision for its
future. This vision includes as its priorities the retention of the hillside community
character, the preservation of open space, the reduction of regional traffic impacts on
local streets, the promotion of viable- commercial activity, the provision of well-
maintained and attractive horsing and the creation of a community environment which
nurtures social, cultural, religious, educational and recreational opportunities for its
citizens. As a result of this effort, it became apparent that the existing zoning code is
outdated and ill-suited to meet the City's needs in terms of the type and quality of
development that is the community's goal.
A comprehensive Development Code is required which can facilitate the
implementation of the General Plan's goals and strategies. It is envisioned that this
Code will include quality graphics, charts and tables to summarize and clarify
information, presented in a format that allows the integration of existing development
related policies and standards. The ultimate goal is the creation of a single
"development services" related volume which replaces all. existing ordinances and
includes zoning and subdivision regulations, development standards and design
guidelines.
Accordingly, the successful firm will need to demonstrate a variety of attributes,
including strong physical planning skills, a thorough knowledge of State law, strong
writing and graphic skills, experience and effectiveness in working with diverse
groups in the public arena and an intimate knowledge of land use, -development
practices and design. It is anticipated that this will become a working partnership
between the consultant and the Community Development Department, including staff
from the Planning and Building and Safety Divisions and the Engineering Department.
II. SCOPE OF SERVICES
A. In order to be successful, the process of creating a comprehensive
Development Code must be a collaborative effort between the consultant, City
staff, legal staff, local decision makers and the community. To this end, it is
anticipated that the process will involve numerous public meetings with the
purpose of informing and guiding local decision makers and citizenry. A
public outreach program, utilizing the City's resources to advertise through
informational brochures, surveys and handouts, is planned to encourage and
promote public input and participation. .
Using the existing zoning code as a starting point, it is the City's intent to
subdivide this process into manageable steps. It is the City's goal to adopt and
implement individual chapters of the code addressing specific topic areas such
as commercial and.residential development, which will ultimately be integrated
into a single comprehensive volume. A program to achieve these ends might
be structured as follows:
2
FA
Phase I. Attend an initial Planning Commission meeting and present an
overview of the proposed Comprehensive Development Code and its
preparation process. Prepare informational handouts and surveys seeking
public input and participation. Review the existing zoning code for
compliance with State law, case laws, statutes, professional practices,
conformity with current standards including adopted ordinances and. General
Plan goals and strategies. Prepare . report including findings . and
recommendations;
Phase H. Working with City staff, develop upgraded standards where needed
and create new standards where needed or desirable. It is anticipated that this
phase will entail public workshops with representatives of the development
community, Planning Commission and possibly City Council;
Phase IIt. Develop format, charts and graphics and prepare drafts of specific
chapters. Prepare environmental documentation, public hearing notices and
final drafts of completed chapters. Attend and present recommendations at
Planning Commission and City Council public hearings. Prepare draft
chapters as adopted. Note: there will be several public hearing during .this
phase as individual chapters are adopted.
Phase IV. Prepare public hearing notices, final draft of completed document
and staff reports. Attend and present recommendations at Planning
Commission and City Council public hearings. Prepare final integrated draft
document as adopted.
B. The, existing zoning code consists of two chapters, the Subdivision Code and
the Planning and Zoning Code. With regard to these two chapters, needs
identified to date include the following;
1. Subdivision Ordinance. Adopted in 1989 with no amendments to the
document, it needs to be updated for conformance with the State
Subdivision Map Act. Additionally, if necessary, the City's lot line
adjustment procedure and Certificate of Conformance procedures need
to be reviewed and updated; and
2. Zoning Ordinance. This chapter will essentially be replaced by the new
Development Code. The new code will need to address the following:
a. Home occupations;
b. Second dwelling units;
C. Expanded definitions;
d. Adoption of FAR's, lot coverage standards and applicable
density ranges;.
e. Revised parking standards;
f. Revised sign standards;
g. Standards for multi -building projects;
h. Standards for rear yard encroachments;
K
i. Temporary use permits;
j. Development standards for specific uses such as fast food
restaurants, car washes, gas stations, etc.;
k. Administration and appeals provisions;
1. Establishment of an overlay district or specific development
standards for the hillside residential development known as "The
Country;"
m. Establish residential wall and fencing standards for hillside areas
addressing grade differentials, retaining walls;
n. Revise administrative development review process to include
square footage thresholds allowing certain residential
developments to be approved at the staff level;
o. Noise standards for all zones;
P. Revise "administrative exceptions" section; and
q. Adult business regulations.
C. The Development Code, consisting of the two chapters previously cited, will
need to be integrated into the City's Municipal Code as Title 21 and 22. In
addition, the City's desires include, in the same binder or format, other design
and development standards including but not limited to the following:
1. Slope density ordinance;
2. Landscaping standards;
3. Development security standards;
4. Tree Preservation Ordinance;
5. Satellite dishes, communication towers, antennas and other
communication devices;
6. Lighting standards for commercial, residential and industrial
development (ie. parking lots, tennis courts, security
lighting);
7. Businesses dispensing alcoholic beverages;
8. Design review standards for residential, commercial and
industrial land uses; and
9. Standards to implement the City's redevelopment philosophy.
D. The consultant will be responsible for the following:
1. Phase I report: findings and recommendations of review, ten (10)
copies;
2. Phase II and III reports: draft reports and recommended text and
graphics as prepared, for staff/workshop review, twenty copies (20)
copies;
3. Draft documents for public .hearing purposes .in three ring binder
format, fifty (50) copies.
4. Fifty (50) copies of replacement pages necessitated by changes
occurring as a result of the public hearing process, if any;
5. Final document to be provided in a format compatible with municipal
code publisher, City's electronic bulletin board and City's web page on
the Internet.
