CALL TO ORDER:
Chair/Mok called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. in the City Hall Windmill Room,
21810 Copley Drive, Diamond Bar, CA 91765.
PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: Commissioner Farago led the Pledge of Allegiance.
1. ROLL CALL:
Present: Commissioners Frank Farago, Jennifer “Fred” Mahlke,
Raymond Wolfe, Vice Chairperson Naila Barlas and
Chairperson Kenneth Mok
Also present: Greg Gubman, Community Development Director; James
Eggart, Assistant City Attorney; Grace Lee, Senior Planner, Mayuko (May) Nakajima,
Associate Planner; and, Stella Marquez, Administrative Coordinator.
2. MATTERS FROM THE AUDIENCE/PUBLIC COMMENTS:
Robin Smith asked if the City was planning to address the issue of “mansionization”
in the community and the problem of houses with multiple mailboxes being used as
“birthing hotels.” She asked how short-term rentals impact the hotel occupancy in
the City.
CDD/Gubman responded to speaker comments that with respect to “mansionization,”
all additions to existing single family residences that enlarge the structure by more
than 50 percent of the existing floor area are subject to review of the Planning
Commission. Short term rentals are prohibited in Diamond Bar. The City is generally
unable to proactively go after them, particularly in light of how the website s for VRBO
and AirBnB have evolved making it more difficult to go on to those websites and
identify locations of short-term rentals. The City relies on and responds to,
neighborhood complaints to pursue remedies. Similarly, boarding houses are
prohibited in Diamond Bar. There is a codified Group Residential Ord inance that
defines the boarding house (which is prohibited) versus a single family residence and
details how they are identified. From time to time staff receives reports of a boarding
house situation which are investigated and if necessary, enforcement activity
engages, as is the case with maternity hotels/birthing homes which generally fall
under the definition of a boarding house.
Chair/Mok asked how a resident would bring this to the attention of the City and
CDD/Gubman responded that they would call the Community Development
Department at 909-839-7030 and Code Enforcement will pursue the matter.

Project Description
The applicant is proposing to relocate the existing after-school tutoring center to a larger
space to expand the existing enrollment from 82 students to 95 students. School
Connection provides four types of programs:
After school program: Monday through Fridays during the regular school year
from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm , between 3:00 pm and 4:30 pm teachers help students
with homework and test preparation and 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm teachers teach
English and math lessons;
Summer academic and interactive program: Includes language arts, math,
presentations, and art;
One-on-one tutoring: Tutoring sessions provide supplemental help on individual
subjects. Each session is one hour long, between 2:00 pm and 6:00 pm. The
maximum enrollment for individual tutoring is five students, and usually enrolled
students in the after school program; and
Little Bookworm Club (LBC): Helps students become confident and fluent
readers.
The tutoring center will have a total of 15 staff members: eight teachers for the after
school program, five teachers/tutors for one-on-one tutoring and LBC, one assistant
director, and one office manager.
The applicant proposes to occupy a 4,818 square -foot vacant unit within the second
floor of the center’s southernmost building. The proposed floor plan consists of a
reception area, 10 classrooms, a tutoring room, an office and a storage room. Other
uses occupying the buildings comprising the Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center
include restaurants, tutoring centers, a post-secondary school, personal services, and
medical and professional offices.

ANALYSIS:
Review Authority (DBMC Section 22.58 and 22.30.050)
The proposed project requires Planning Commission review and approval of two
entitlement applications: Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and a Parking Permit. The
7.1
Packet Pg. 17
Conditional Use Permit & Parking Permit No. PL2018-32
Page 6 of 12
analysis that follows provides the basis for staff’s recommendation to approve the CUP
and Parking Permit applications.
Conditional Use Permit (DBMC Section 22.58)
A CUP is required for uses whose effect on the surrounding area cannot be determined
before being analyzed for suitability at a particular location.
When reviewing a CUP, consideration is given to the location, design, configuration,
operational characteristics and potential impacts to determine whether or not the
proposed use will pose a detriment to the public health, safety and welfare. If it can be
found that the proposed use is likely to be compatible with its surroundings, the
Commission may approve the proposed use subject to conditions stipulating the
manner in which the use must be conducted. If the Commission finds that the proposed
use is likely to be detrimental to the general peace, health and general welfare, then it
must deny the request.
When a CUP is approved, it runs with the land and all conditions placed on the CUP are
binding on all successors in interest. In other words, if the owner of the proposed
tutoring center were to close the business, a new tenant could locate in the space and
operate the same type of business. The new tenant would be required to comply with
the same conditions as the previous tenant and would not be permitted to expand the
school without full review and approval by the Planning Commission.
Required Parking
The required number of parking spaces for tutoring schools is one space per
200 square feet of gross floor area plus one space per employee, and shopping centers
over 50,000 square feet in size are required to provide one parking space for every
300 square feet of gross floor area for commercial uses that are not subject to approval
of a CUP. The parking requirement for businesses approved under a CUP
(e.g., schools, tutoring, health/fitness studios, etc.) are calculated separately.
Plaza Diamond Bar provides 274 off -street parking spaces. The existing gross floor
area of the shopping center—excluding the existing tutoring centers, art studio,
Chuck E. Cheese’s, post-secondary school, and the proposed tutoring center—is
44,196 square feet, and requires 147 parking spaces. The existing tutoring centers
require 35 parking spaces and the existing art studio requires 17 parking spaces based
on the Development Code requirements. The existing Chuck E. Cheese’s requires
57 parking spaces based on Development Code requirements for a restaurant and
indoor recreation/arcade. The post-secondary school requires 34 parking spaces.
School Connection requires 40 parking spaces per the Development Code standards.
The aggregate parking requirement is thus 330 parking spaces, resulting in a technical
deficit of 56 parking spaces.

Parking Permit (DBMC Section 22.30.050)
As provided under Section 22.30.050 of the Development Code, where two commercial
uses are developed as a recognized shopping center and those uses have distinct and
differing peak parking usage periods, a reduction in the required number of parkin g
spaces may be allowed through the approval of a parking permit, provided that the most
remote space is located within 300 feet of the use it is intended to serve (as measured
along the most direct pedestrian path). The amount of reduction may be up to t he
amount of spaces required for the least intensive of the two or more uses sharing the
parking. The applicant is requesting a Parking Permit because there is a technical
deficit of 56 parking spaces.
Since there is a deficit number of parking spaces when shared parking dynamics are
not factored in, staff required a parking study to analyze the parking demand based on
the existing and proposed uses on site. The applicant submitted a parking study
(Attachment 2) that provides parking demand calculations based on parking survey
observations and the ITE Parking Generation Rates (4th Edition) signed by a licensed
traffic engineer.

The traffic engineer conducted parking surveys on four days at the site to observe
actual parking counts on typical weekdays. On two days, parked vehicles were counted
every 30 minutes and on the other two days, parked vehicles were counted every 15
minutes from 2:00 pm to 7:00 pm. Based on the engineer’s observations, the current
peak parking demand for the commercial center oc curs between 3:00 pm and 3:30 pm
with 166 occupied parking spaces. Currently 92 percent of the units are leased out to
tenants.
At the current location, School Connection provides transportation services by picking
up students from eight elementary and middle schools and shuttling them to the after
school program. There are four shuttle vans that total 10 daily pick -up trips between
1:45 pm to 2:45 pm. Based on data since 2014, 78 to 89 percent of students at School
Connection have been using the shuttle service. The applicant is estimating that
approximately 80 percent of students will be shuttled from local schools to the proposed
tutoring center. Therefore, 20 percent of students—approximately 18 students—will be
dropped off by parents before 3:00 pm to attend the after school program. At 6:00 pm,
students will be picked up by their parents. There are no other classes or sessions
scheduled after 6:00 pm.

15 employees, four shuttle vans, 18 parents (20 percent of parents) that will be dropping
off their children to the after school program, and five parents that will be dropping off
their children for the one-on-one tutoring sessions when peak parking demand occurs
between 3:00 pm and 3:30 pm . The peak parking demand is the worst case scenario
because it analyzes the amount of parking required if the commercial center reached its
highest capacity at the same time. Based on the existing uses and the peak parking
rates, there would be a surplus of six parking spaces. Due to the variety of different
uses at the commercial centers, with various hours of operation and peak parking
demand times, this scenario is highly unlikely.
Since peak parking demands occur at different times for different uses within the
commercial center, parking demands were adjusted with land use time-variance
adjustment factors to the total trips generated by each use. The land use time variance
adjustment factor is a statistical coefficient that was derived from information gathered
from survey data for specific land uses, therefore different land uses would have
different land use time variance adjustment factors. For example, between 3:00 pm and
3:30 pm, the land use time variance factor for the tutoring center peak demand is
100 percent while the factor for office uses is 81 percent and restaurant uses is
83 percent since peak parking demands do not occur between 3:00 pm and 3:30 pm for
offices and restaurants. The land use time-variance factors are based on statistical data
from the ITE, Parking Generation Manual, 4th Edition survey data.
Based on the parking study, the engineer estimates that there would be a total need for
242 parking spaces—a surplus of 32 parking spaces—since the peak parking demands
occur at different times for the different uses within the commercia l center. Therefore, it
is reasonable to anticipate that the existing parking supply is adequate to serve the
overall parking demands of Plaza Diamond Bar. In addition, School Connection is not
proposing to increase any square-footage to the existing building.
Summer camp classes run for nine weeks during the summer 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.
Students can attend the all day (9:00 am to 6:00 pm) program or the morning (9:00 am
to 12:00 pm) or afternoon (1:15 pm to 6:00 pm) sessions. Typically, the majority of
students attend the all day program. Summer camp attendance is between 75 to 85
students. Parents are able to drop off children starting at 7:45 am to accommodate
working parents. Although the afternoon session ends at 6:00 pm, the pick-up period is
at staggered times between 6:00 pm and 6:30 pm. Therefore, long-term parking will not
be required for parents.
Additionally, there are mitigating measures that would further lessen the parking
demand impact for the proposed school, such as:
There are approximately 40 parking spaces along the east property line that are
underutilized throughout the day and have the most direct pedestrian path to the
proposed school;
Noble University does not have any classes between 2:00 pm and 6:30 pm;
7.1
Packet Pg. 22
Conditional Use Permit & Parking Permit No. PL2018-32
Page 11 of 12
Approximately 80 percent of the students will be shuttled to School Connection
from local schools; and
Long-term parking is not required for the parents to drop-off or pick-up the
students. Parents drop-off and pick-up the students approximately 10 minutes
before and after the program.
Compatibility with Neighborhood
School Connection is proposing to relocate within an existing commercial center,
surrounded by commercial uses to the west, and the 57 freeway to the east.
The existing businesses located in the building include restaurants, tutoring and art
schools, post-secondary school, medical and healthcare offices, and retail businesses.
Given the proposed hours of operation, the overall parking demands, and the types of
adjoining uses, it is reasonable to conclude that the school will be compatible with the
other uses in the building.

PC Resolution No. 2018-XX
C. FINDINGS OF FACT
Based on the findings and conclusions set forth herein and as prescribed under
Diamond Bar Municipal Code (DBMC) Section 22.58 and 22.30.050, this Planning
Commission hereby finds and approves as follows:
Conditional Use Permit Review Findings (DBMC Section 22.58)
1. The Proposed Use is allowed within the subject zoning district with the approval
of a conditional use permit and complies with all other applicable provisions of
this Development Code and the Municipal Code.
Pursuant to DBMC Section 22.10.030, Table 2-6, a non-degree school—
including a tutoring center—is permitted in the C-2 zoning district with approval
of a conditional use permit. Through compliance with the conditions of approval
stipulating the manner in which the use must be conducted, the proposed use will
be compatible with neighboring uses in the commercial center and surrounding
neighborhood.
2. The Proposed Use is consistent with the general plan and any applicable specific
plan.
The Proposed Use is consistent with General Plan Strategy 1.3.3: (“Encourage
neighborhood serving retail and service commercial uses”) in that the proposed
tutoring center meets Strategy 1.3.3 because the proposed tutoring center
provides services to Diamond Bar residents.
The Project site is not subject to the provisions of any specific plan.
3. The design, location, size and operating characteristics of the Proposed Use are
compatible with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity.
The Proposed Use is located within an existing commercial center occupied by
tutoring centers, post-secondary school, restaurants, and medical and
professional office uses. The Proposed Use is compatible with the other uses
within the commercial center.
Through compliance with the conditions of approval stipulating the manner in
which the use must be conducted, the Proposed Use will be compatible with the
other uses within the commercial center.
4. The subject site is physically suitable for the type and density/intensity of use
being proposed, including access, provision of utilities, compatibility with
adjoining land uses, and the absence of physical constraints.
The Project site is located within an existing commercial center that currently has
a diversity of uses, including tutoring centers, a post-secondary school, medical
and professional office uses. Plaza Diamond Bar provides 274 parking spaces.
The varying uses result in a range of peak business hours and parking demands.
Although there is a deficit of parking spaces based on Development Code
requirements, the applicant submitted a parking study from a licensed engineer,
to provide a parking demand analysis based on ITE Parking Generation Rates
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 26
3
PC Resolution No. 2018-XX
(4th Edition). The parking analysis indicates that the forecasted parking demand
of 242 parking spaces is lower than the 330 parking spaces required by the
Development Code. Additionally, the proposed school will not increase any
square footage to the existing building. Based on these observations, there is
likely a sufficient amount of parking for current and future uses to accommodate
peak-period demands. Given the proposed hours of operation, the overall
parking demands, and the types of adjoining uses, it is reasonable to conclude
that the tutoring center will be compatible with the other uses in the commercial
center.
The Proposed Use is physically suitable with the subject site because it will be
located in an existing building. In addition, the proposed use is intended to
operate within an existing commercial center and will be using existing access
and parking in the center.
5. Granting the conditional use permit will not be detrimental to the public interest,
health, safety, convenience, or welfare, or injurious to persons, property, or
improvements in the vicinity and zoning district in which the property is located.
The Proposed Use is located within a commercial center. Children will be
supervised at all times. Children will not be able to leave until parents pick them
up.
Prior to the issuance of any city permits, the Project is required to comply with all
conditions of approval within the attached resolution, and the Building and Safety
Division.
6. The proposed Project has been reviewed in compliance with the provisions of the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The proposed use is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as set forth under Article 19 Section 15301(a)
(Interior alterations involving partitions and electrical conveyances) of the CEQA
Guidelines.
Parking Permit Findings (DBMC Section 22.30.050)
1. The intent of the parking regulations, which is to ensure that sufficient parking will
be provided to serve the use intended and potential future uses of the subject
site, is preserved; and
The existing gross floor area of the shopping center is 44,196 square feet,
therefore, requires 147 parking spaces. The existing Chuck E. Cheese’s requires
57 parking spaces. The various tutoring centers and art school require 52 parking
spaces. The post-secondary school requires 34 parking spaces. The proposed
tutoring school requires 40 parking spaces. A total of 330 parking spaces are
required to be provided. There are 274 existing parking spaces, resulting in a
technical deficit of 56 parking spaces. Based on a supplemental parking study,
the traffic engineer estimates there would be a demand for 268 parking spaces if
all businesses experienced peak-hour demand simultaneously. Based on the
traffic engineer’s analysis, 242 parking spaces would be needed since the peak
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 27
4
PC Resolution No. 2018-XX
parking demands occur at different times for the different uses within the
commercial center. Therefore, there would be a surplus of 32 parking spaces.
2. A parking permit is approved in compliance with Section 22.30.050 (Reduction of
off-street parking requirements for shared uses).
When reviewing parking impacts on shopping centers, the various uses and peak
business hours for those uses are taken into consideration. The existing
shopping center has uses ranging from tutoring centers, post-secondary school,
restaurants, offices, personal services, and retail uses. The different uses result
in a range of peak business hours and parking demands. Based on a
supplemental parking study, the traffic engineer estimates there would be a
demand for 268 parking spaces if all businesses experienced park -hour demand
simultaneously. Based on the traffic engineer’s analysis, 242 parking spaces
would be needed since the peak parking demands occur at different times for the
different uses within the commercial center. Therefore, there would be a surplus
of 32 parking spaces. Additionally, there are mitigating measures that would
lessen the parking demand impact for the proposed school, such as:
Approximately 40 parking spaces along the east property line that are
underutilized throughout the day and have the most direct pedestrian path
to the proposed school;
Noble University does not have any classes between 2:00 pm and
6:30 pm;
Approximately 80 percent of the students will be shuttled to School
Connection from local schools; and
Long-term parking is not required for the parents to pick up or drop-off
students. Parents drop-off and pick-up students approximately 10 minutes
before and after the program.
Due to this, it is reasonable to anticipate that the existing parking supply is
adequate to serve the overall parking demands of Plaza Diamond Bar.
D. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
Based upon the findings and conclusion set forth above, the Planning Commission
hereby approves Conditional Use Permit No. PL2018-32 subject to the following

Dear Ms. Trottier:
INTRODUCTION
The firm of Kunzman Associates, Inc. is pleased to provide this parking study for the proposed School
Connection project located at 2040 South Brea Canyon Road in the City of Diamond Bar. The School
Connection is proposing to relocate into Building E of the existing Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center,
which has a total of 5 buildings. The unit number for the School Connection will be 220 and 230. The
existing School Connection is currently located within another commercial center at 3211A South Brea
Canyon Road in Diamond Bar, and the applicant is proposing to relocate the tutoring studio and increase
the project’s enrollment. The purpose of this parking study is to assess the overall adequacy of the parking
supply of the Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center including the proposed School Connection project.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed project site is located at 2040 South Brea Canyon Road in the City of Diamond Bar. The
School Connection is proposing to relocate into Building E of the existing Plaza Diamond Bar commercial
center, which has a total of 5 buildings. The project location map is shown on Figure 1. The site plan for
the existing Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center is illustrated on Figure 2. The proposed floor plan for
the School Connection project is depicted on Figure 3. Appendix A contains the schedule, student
enrollment, and transportation information provided by the applicant.
School Connection is a tutoring studio that offers an after-school program that is designed for elementary
and junior high school students. During the regular school year, the 3-hour after-school lesson program
operates from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM on Mondays through Fridays. Table 1 shows the typical weekly
schedule for the after-school program. The after-school program is 4 weeks in a cycle and 10 cycles per
school year, which covers 40 weeks out of 52 weeks in a year. Between 3:00 PM and 4:30 PM, the teachers
would help the students with their school homework and test preparation. Between 4:30 PM and 6:00
PM, the teachers would teach English and mathematics lessons to the students using the program’s
standardized curriculum. The maximum enrollment for the 3-hour after-school program is 90 students
with 8 classes and 11 to 12 students in each class.

The School Connection also offers one-on-one tutoring sessions. The one-on-one tutoring programs will
be one hour per session which starts at the beginning of each hour at 2:00 PM, 3:00 PM, 4:00 PM, 5:00
PM and 6:00 PM. The maximum enrollment for the one-on-one tutoring sessions is five students. As
shown in Appendix A, historically the enrollment for the one-on-one tutoring sessions is very low and is
usually less than five students. The tutoring students are usually comprised of students that are already
enrolled in the afternoon school program curriculum, and they will not generate additional traffic and
parking demand. Therefore, this analysis is conservative in assuming 5 parking spaces for the tutoring
sessions because the actual number will likely be less than 5 students which will require less than 5 parking
spaces.
During the regular school year, the maximum enrollment for the proposed project would be 95 students
which would be physically present at the site. The 3-hour after-school program has 8 classes with 11 to
12 students in each class, and the one-hour tutoring sessions have 5 students.
In terms of staff, there will be one assistant director, one office manager, 8 teachers (one teacher per
classroom) for the after-school program, and 5 tutors for the one-on-one tutoring sessions. The proposed
project will require a maximum of 15 parking spaces for the employees.
The 3-hour after-school program provides a transportation service to pick-up students from their schools
and drop them off at the proposed School Connection tutoring studio. It is anticipated that approximately
80% of the students will be picked-up by the transportation service because most of the parents are
working during after-school hours between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM. Appendix A shows the historic data for
the transportation service enrollment. For the past 3 years since 2014, the percentages of students
utilizing the transportation service are between 78% and 89% of the total enrollment. The shuttle van
service is highly popular because most of the students’ parents work full-time, and this is a convenient
service for the working parents so that they do not need to take off time-off work or to arrange other
transportation options. Since the historical data have shown that most of the students have been using
the transportation service, the project is confident that this trend will continue such that approximately
80% of the students will use the transportation service in the future.
The project provides transportation services with 4 shuttle vans to pick-up students from local schools in
the nearby area and then drop-off the students at the proposed site prior to 3:00 PM. The local schools
have 8 different dismissal times ranging from 1:30 PM to 2:45 PM. For the first round of pick-ups, the 4
shuttle vans will make one pick-up trip each from the four schools that have the 4 earliest dismissal times
before 2:20 PM. In addition, one van will make an extra pick-up trip from the Evergreen Elementary
School which is located very close to the proposed site. For the second round of pick-ups, the 4 vans will
make one pick-up trip each from the 4 schools that have the 4 latest dismissal times after 2:25 PM, and
then one van will make an extra pick-up trip at the Castle Rock Elementary School which is located very
close to the proposed site. Overall, the 4 shuttle vans will be making a total of 10 daily pick-up trips from
the local schools and 10 daily drop-off trips at the proposed site. The 4 shuttle vans will arrive at the
proposed site in staggered intervals before 3:00 PM because the local schools have 8 different dismissal
times ranging from 1:30 PM to 2:45 PM that are 5 minutes to 20 minutes apart. Table 2 summarizes the
transportation service schedule. The applicant owns the 4 shuttle vans used for the transportation service
so the vans will require 4 parking spaces during other times of the day. During the drop-off times at the
proposed site, the 4 shuttle vans may park for a short duration to unload students and then leave the

proposed site for additional pick-up routes. For this analysis, 4 parking spaces for the 4 shuttle vans will
be included in the parking calculations.
Only 20% of the students, which is approximately 18 students, may be dropped-off by the parents prior
to 3:00 PM. Due to the long duration of the 3-hour afternoon program, parents will typically not require
long-term parking spaces because they will only drop-off the students and not wait for the students to
finish the 3-hour lessons. In a similar fashion when the lessons are finished, the parents will not require
long-term parking spaces because the students are usually waiting at the curb side in the front of the
building entrance to be picked-up by the parents1.
There will be a temporarily elevated parking demand of 18 parking spaces for a short duration of
approximately 10 minutes occurring near the start and the end of the 3-hour lesson program at 3:00 PM
and 6:00 PM. The 18 parents (20% of the students) may park in a parking space for a few minutes so that
the students can exit the vehicle and enter the building, or the parents may park and enter the building
to pick-up the students. In the evening, parents pick up students between 5:30 PM and 6:30 PM which
has a long duration of one hour so the parents will arrive to the site at staggered intervals from 5:30 PM
to 6:30 PM. The parents will not require long-term parking spaces because the students are usually
picked-up by the parents very quickly. There will be another 5 additional temporary parking spaces
needed for the parents that drop-off and pick-up the students for the one-hour tutoring sessions. The
tutoring students are usually comprised of students that are already enrolled in the afternoon school
program curriculum, and they will not generate additional traffic and parking demand. Therefore, this
analysis is conservative in assuming 5 parking spaces for the tutoring sessions because the actual number
will likely be less than 5 students which will require less than 5 parking spaces. At 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM,
the overall temporary parking demand will be approximately 23 parking spaces for a short duration of
approximately 10 minutes.
During summer time, the project provides summer programs that offer academic and interactive classes.
The summer hours are from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Appendix contains schedule and enrollment information
for the 7-hour summer camp program. The enrollment for the summer programs are usually lower than
the after-school program during the regular school year. The all-day 7-hour summer camp hours are from
9:00 AM to 6:00 PM with a lunch break from 12:00 PM to 1:15 PM. Students will have lunch inside their
classrooms during the lunch break. The summer morning lesson is 3 hours from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM,
and the summer afternoon session is 5 hours from 1:15 PM to 6:00 PM. The summer camp program
covers 9 weeks out of 52 weeks in a year. The maximum enrollment for the summer camp program is 85
students during the summer morning session and 75 students during the summer afternoon session.
Typically, most of the students are enrolled in the 7-hour summer camp because majority has both of
their parents working full-time.
The summer camp program gives the parents an extended morning drop-off period from 7:45 AM to 9:00
AM (1 hour and 15 minutes) because majority of the working parents need to drop-off their children early
1 Kunzman Associates, Inc. staff observed the existing School Connection from 3:30 PM to 6:30 PM on a typical weekday. During
this 3 hour observation period, parents were observed picking-up students that were leaving the existing School Connection.
The parents were observed briefly parking their vehicle within the existing 10-minute parking spaces in front of the building to
pick-up their child. It should be noted that the observations showed that no parents were parking for more than then 10-
minute period.

at the School Connection site so that they may arrive at their place of employment on time. Since the
morning drop-off period has a very long duration of one hour and 15 minutes, the students usually arrives
to the site at staggered intervals before 9:00 AM. In the same fashion, the afternoon pick-up period also
has a long duration of 30 minutes so the parents will arrive to the site at staggered intervals from 6:00 PM
to 6:30 PM. The parents will not require long-term parking spaces because the students are usually
picked-up by the parents very quickly.
CITY CODE REQUIREMENTS
The City of Diamond Bar has specific parking requirements for various land uses for the existing Plaza
Diamond Bar commercial center. Table 3 shows the parking code requirement calculations for the existing
land uses, assumed vacant units, and the proposed project which is a tutoring studio. As shown in Table
3, the parking code will require a total of 330 parking spaces for Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center.
Since the existing Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center currently provides a total of 274 on-site parking
spaces, there is a parking deficit of 56 parking spaces based on the City parking code requirements.
The City’s municipal parking code requirement assumes each land use as an isolated, single-use setting
rather than a multi-use commercial center that has varying peak parking demand for different uses
throughout different time periods of the day. It would be more appropriate to consider a more-realistic
peak parking demand based on industry standard parking rates with the consideration of the
characteristics of the time-of-day distribution of parking demand. It is recommended that the peak
parking demand be estimated using the parking survey data published in the Institute of Transportation
Engineers, Parking Generation, 4th Edition, 2010. It is also recommended that the existing parking count
be collected at the parking lot of the proposed site data to assess the existing parking demand and the
data be utilized as a calibration tool to determine more comparable parking rates to estimate the future
parking demand.
The City of Diamond Bar has requested that the parking counts should identify the existing parking
occupancy and available parking supply for the parking area within 300 feet of the entrance to the project
building to address the City’s municipal code requirement listed below:
Where two or more nonresidential uses are developed as a recognized shopping or professional
center and two or more uses have distinct and differing peak parking usage periods, (e.g. a theater
and a bank), a reduction in the required number of parking spaces may be allowed through the
approval of a parking permit, provided that the most remote space is located within 300 feet of
the use it is intended to serve (as measured along the most direct pedestrian path). The amount
of reduction may be up to the amount of spaces required for the least intensive of the two or
more uses sharing the parking. A shared parking analysis may be required by the director to
support a request for a parking reduction.
EXISTING PARKING COUNT AT THE PROPOSED SITE
Parking occupancy count data were collected at the parking lot of the proposed site on Thursday (April
19, 2018 and May 10, 2018) and Friday (April 20, 2018 and May 11, 2018) from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM
cumulatively, which is the proposed hours of operation for the proposed School Connection project. The

one-on-one tutoring session starts at 2:00 PM with very low enrollment, and the after-school program
will start at 3:00 PM and end at 6:00 PM. The tutoring students are usually comprised of students that
are already enrolled in the afternoon school program curriculum, and they will not generate additional
traffic and parking demand. Table 4 through Table 7 show the Thursday and Friday afternoon parking
counts. The April 2018 counts (Table 4 and Table 5) were collected in 30-minute interval, and the May
2018 counts (Table 6 and Table 7) were collected in 15-minute interval. In comparison of the April 2018
counts and the May 2018 counts, the changes in the number of occupied parking spaces for the 30-minute
interval are relatively small and it appears to be consistent to the changes in the number of occupied
spaces for the 15-minute interval. Based on the field observation, the existing Plaza Diamond Bar
commercial center appears to have a low turnover rate of parked vehicles that contributes to the
consistency between the 30-minute interval counts and the 15-minute interval counts. At the time of the
parking counts, the existing commercial center had the following vacancies: Suite A7 (2,200 square feet)
and Suite E230 (3,077 square feet). Based on the parking counts, the 274-space parking lot for the existing
commercial center has a high quantity of surplus parking with 108 surplus spaces which is a parking
utilization of 61% while the commercial center is almost fully leased out when it is 92% occupied by
tenants.
In addition to the overall parking supply for the commercial center, the May 2018 counts (Table 6 and
Table 7) also identify the parking occupancy and available parking spaces for the parking area within 300
feet of the project building entrance. The 300-foot radius parking area includes approximately 50% of the
entire parking lot for the Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center, and it has a parking supply of 137 spaces.
The highest parking demand for the 300-foot radius parking area occurred on Thursday (May 10, 2018) at
2:30 PM with 100 occupied spaces for a 73% occupancy rate, which has 37 surplus spaces while the overall
commercial center has a 56% parking occupancy rate with 120 surplus spaces at the same time. Based on
the parking counts, there are high quantity amount of surplus parking within 300 feet of the project
building entrance and within the entire parking lot of the Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center, which
has a parking utilization between 56% and 73% while the commercial center is almost fully leased out
when it is 92% occupied by tenants.
PROJECTED PARKING DEMAND BASED ON ITE PARKING RATES
Table 8 shows the Plaza Diamond Bar parking demand calculation using the peak parking rates based on
the Institute of Transportation Engineers Parking Generation Manual, 4th Edition, 2010. The existing
parking count data (Table 4 through Table 7) have been utilized as a calibration tool to determine more
comparable parking rates to estimate the future parking demand. The Parking Generation Manual peak
parking rates are based on an accumulation of parking survey data collected by the Institute of
Transportation Engineers from various land uses, and the peak parking rates are considered an industry
standard in parking generation estimation (see Appendix B). The unadjusted peak parking demand is
calculated using the Institute of Transportation Engineers peak parking rates with the land use quantity
such as building size. The unadjusted peak parking demand is the worst-case scenario that assumes all
various land uses peaks at the exact same time at 100% of the peak parking rates. The unadjusted peak
parking demand usually overstates the actual parking demand because different land uses have different
hourly peaking characteristics throughout the day.

Therefore, it is more appropriate to adjust the peak parking demand using a land use time-variance
adjustment factor that takes into consideration the hourly time variance of the peak parking rates. For
instance, between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM, the land use time-variance factor for the tutoring center peak
demand is 100% while the factors are lower for the office land use at 81% and the restaurant land use at
83%. In essence, the multi-use commercial center may “share” parking spaces with a reduced parking
supply because their peak demands occurs at different times throughout the day. The land use time-
variance factor are based on the time-of-day distribution percentages between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM,
which are published in the Parking Generation Manual (see Appendix B). The time-of-day distribution
percentages is a statistical data from the Parking Generation manual survey data. The adjusted peak
parking demand is a more realistic scenario that has been reduced based on the land use time-variance
adjustment factor which takes into consideration the hourly time variance of the peak parking rates.
The proposed project will require approximately 15 parking spaces for the employees. The 4 shuttle vans
will require 4 parking spaces. Approximately 80% of the students enrolled in the 3-hour after-school
program will be picked-up by the transportation service because most of the parents are working during
after-school hours between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM. Only 20% of the students, which is approximately 18
students, may be dropped-off by the parents prior to 3:00 PM. There may be a temporarily elevated
parking demand of 18 parking spaces for a short duration of approximately 10 minutes occurring near the
start and the end of the 3-hour lesson program at 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM. The 18 parents (20% of the
students) may park in a parking space for a few minutes so that the students can exit the vehicle and enter
the building, or the parents may park and enter the building to pick-up the students. In the evening,
parents pick up students between 5:30 PM and 6:30 PM which has a long duration of one hour so the
parents will arrive to the site at staggered intervals from 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM. There will be another 5
additional temporary parking spaces needed for the parents that drop-off and pick-up the students for
the one-hour tutoring sessions. The tutoring students are usually comprised of students that are already
enrolled in the afternoon school program curriculum, and they will not generate additional traffic and
parking demand. Therefore, this analysis is conservative in assuming 5 parking spaces for the tutoring
sessions because the actual number will likely be less than 5 students which will require less than 5 parking
spaces. At 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM, the overall temporary parking demand will be approximately 23 parking
spaces for a short duration of approximately 10 minutes.
Table 8 shows the adjusted parking demand for the proposed project and the Plaza Diamond Bar
commercial center. As shown in Table 8, the adjusted project peak parking demand is 242 parking spaces
considering the hourly peaking characteristics of each land use. Since the Plaza Diamond Bar commercial
center currently provides a total of 274 on-site parking spaces, there is a parking surplus of 32 parking
spaces based on the adjusted peak parking demand. Therefore, it is projected that there will be adequate
parking supply for the proposed project within the existing Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center.
It should be also noted that the parking demand for each of the existing tenants and vacant suites are
calculated at their full potential. For instance, even though Nobel University is only at 25% capacity when
it is offering one class currently, the parking calculation in Table 8 included 17 spaces needed for its full
capacity based a parking study previously prepared by Nobel University.

For the parking area within 300 feet of the project building entrance, the parking counts show that there
are 37 surplus parking spaces during the peak time which is adequate to accommodate the project’s
temporary parking demand of 23 parking spaces for a short duration of approximately 10 minutes.
No circulation and queuing issues are anticipated because the updated parking calculations show that
there are adequate parking spaces within the parking lot. Vehicles will not be circulating the parking lot
looking for the parking spaces. The project generates drop-off and pick-up traffic that quickly enters and
exits parking lot that will not require long-term parking. The shuttle vans will arrive at the School
Connection site at staggered intervals before 3:00 PM because the 8 nearby local schools have 8 different
dismissal times from 1:10 PM to 2:45 PM that are 5 minutes to 20 minutes apart.
CONCLUSIONS
1. The existing Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center currently provides a total of 274 on-site parking
spaces.
2. Parking occupancy count data were collected at the parking lot of the proposed site on Thursday
(April 19, 2018 and May 20, 2018) and Friday (April 20, 2018 and May 11, 2018) from 2:00 PM to
7:00 PM cumulative, which is the proposed hours of operation for the proposed School Connection
project. The one-on-one tutoring session starts at 2:00 PM with very low enrollment, and the after-
school program will start at 3:00 PM and end at 6:00 PM. The April 2018 counts were collected in
30-minute interval, and the May 2018 counts were collected in 15-minute interval. In comparison
of the April 2018 counts and the May 2018 counts, the changes in the number of occupied parking
spaces for the 30-minute interval are relatively small and it appears to be consistent to the changes
in the number of occupied spaces for the 15-minute interval. Based on the field observation, the
existing Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center appears to have a low turnover rate of parked
vehicles that contributes to the consistency between the 30-minute interval counts and the 15-
minute interval counts. At the time of the parking counts, the existing commercial center had the
following vacancies: Suite A7 (2,200 square feet) and Suite E230 (3,077 square feet). Based on the
parking counts, the 274-space parking lot for the existing commercial center has a high quantity of
surplus parking with 108 surplus spaces which is a parking utilization of 61% while the commercial
center is almost fully leased out when it is 92% occupied by tenants.
In addition to the overall parking supply for the commercial center, the May 2018 counts also
identify the parking occupancy and available parking spaces for the parking area within 300 feet of
the project building entrance. The 300-foot radius parking area includes approximately 50% of the
entire parking lot for the Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center, and it has a parking supply of 137
spaces. The highest parking demand for the 300-foot radius parking area occurred on Thursday
(May 10, 2018) at 2:30 PM with 100 occupied spaces for a 73% occupancy rate, which has 37 surplus
spaces while the overall commercial center has a 56% parking occupancy rate with 120 surplus
spaces at the same time. Based on the parking counts, there are high quantity amount of surplus
parking within 300 feet of the project building entrance and within the entire parking lot of the Plaza
Diamond Bar commercial center, which has a parking utilization between 56% and 73% while the
commercial center is almost fully leased out when it is 92% occupied by tenants.

3. The project will require approximately 15 parking spaces for the employees. No long-term parking
spaces will be needed for the parents of the students. It is anticipated that approximately 80% of
the students will be picked-up by the transportation service because most of the parents are
working during after-school hours between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM. The parents will not require long-
term parking spaces because they usually will only drop-off the students and not wait for the
students to finish the 3-hour lessons. In a similar fashion when the lessons are finished, the parents
will not require long-term parking spaces because the students are usually picked-up by the parents
very quickly.
4. Only 20% of the students, which is approximately 18 students, may be dropped-off by the parents
prior to 3:00 PM. There may be a temporarily elevated parking demand of 18 parking spaces for a
short duration of approximately 10 minutes occurring near the start and the end of the 3-hour
lesson program at 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM. The 18 parents (20% of the students) may park in a stall
for a few minutes so that the students can exit the vehicle and enter the building, or the parents
may park and enter the building to pick-up the students. In the evening, parents pick up students
between 5:30 PM and 6:30 PM which has a long duration of one hour so the parents will arrive to
the site at staggered intervals from 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM. The parents will not require long-term
parking spaces because the students are usually picked-up by the parent very quickly. There will be
another 5 additional temporary parking spaces needed for the parents that drop-off and pick-up
the students for the one-hour tutoring sessions. The tutoring students are usually comprised of
students that are already enrolled in the afternoon school program curriculum, and they will not
generate additional traffic and parking demand. Therefore, this analysis is conservative in assuming
5 parking spaces for the tutoring sessions because the actual number will likely be less than 5
students which will require less than 5 parking spaces. At 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM, the overall
temporary parking demand will be approximately 23 parking spaces for a short duration of
approximately 10 minutes.
5. The City parking code will require a total of 330 parking spaces for the proposed project and the
Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center, which is a parking deficit of 56 parking spaces.
6. It is recommended that the peak parking demand be estimated using the peak parking rates
published in the Institute of Transportation Engineers, Parking Generation Manual, 4th Edition,
2010. The unadjusted peak parking demand is calculated using the Institute of Transportation
Engineers peak parking rates with the land use quantity such as building size. The unadjusted peak
parking demand is the worst-case scenario that assumes all various land uses peaks at the exact
same time at 100% of the peak parking rates. The unadjusted peak parking demand usually
overstates the actual parking demand because different land uses have different hourly peaking
characteristics throughout the day.
7. Therefore, it is more appropriate to adjust the peak parking demand using a land use time-variance
adjustment factor that takes into consideration the hourly time variance of the peak parking rates.
In essence, the multi-use commercial center may “share” parking spaces with a reduced parking
supply because their peak demands occurs at different times throughout the day. The land use
time-variance factor are based on the time-of-day distribution percentages between 3:00 PM and
6:00 PM, which are published in the Institute of Transportation Engineers, Parking Generation, 4th

Edition, 2010. The adjusted peak parking demand is a more realistic scenario that has been reduced
based on the land use time-variance adjustment factor which takes into consideration the hourly
time variance of the peak parking rates.
8. The estimated project peak parking demand is 242 parking spaces based on the Parking Generation
Manual parking rates and the hourly peaking characteristics of each land use, which yields a parking
surplus of 32 parking spaces. Therefore, it is projected that there will be adequate parking supply
for the proposed project within the existing Plaza Diamond Bar commercial center. It should be also
noted that the parking demand for each of the existing tenants and vacant suites are calculated at
their full potential. For instance, even though Nobel University is only at 25% capacity when it is
offering one class currently, the parking calculation included 17 spaces needed for its full capacity
based a parking study previously prepared by Nobel University.
9. For the parking area within 300 feet of the project building entrance, the parking counts show that
there are 37 surplus parking spaces during the peak time which is adequate to accommodate the
project’s temporary parking demand of 23 parking spaces for a short duration of approximately 10
minutes.
10. No circulation and queuing issues are anticipated because the updated parking calculations show
that there are adequate parking spaces within the parking lot. Vehicles will not be circulating the
parking lot looking for the parking spaces. The project generates drop-off and pick-up traffic that
quickly enters and exits parking lot that will not require long-term parking. The shuttle vans will
arrive at the School Connection site at staggered intervals before 3:00 PM because the nearby local
schools have 8 different dismissal times from 1:10 PM to 2:45 PM that are 5 minutes to 20 minutes
apart.

The property is legally described as Lot 167 of Tract No. 25096, and the Assessor’s
Parcel Number (APN) is 8702-007-072.
Project Description
The existing 1,822 square-foot, single-story home consists of common areas (dining
room, living room, family room, and kitchen), master bedroom suite with a bathroom,
closet, and study/sitting room; two bedrooms with closets; one bathroom; and a two-car
garage. There is an existing unpermitted trellis structure on the south side of the
property, which the applicant proposes to remove, and a condition of approval requiring
its removal prior to final inspection is included in the attached resolution.
The applicant is proposing to enlarge the existing family room at the rear of the house
and construct a second story above the rear portion of the existing first floor with two
bedrooms with bathrooms and walk-in closets, a game room, sitting area and powder
room. There will be a total of five bedrooms, four bathrooms and one powder room in
the residence. A balcony is proposed at the rear of the house, with access from a
bedroom and a game room.
The height of the existing house is 19 feet. The proposed second story addition will
increase the height of the house to 28 feet.
The proposed addition is located at the rear of the existing residence and above the
existing footprint, and consists of the following components:

Site and Grading Configuration: The property is roughly a rectangular-shaped lot.
The existing house is situated on a leveled pad and is not a hillside property. The first
story addition is located at the rear of the property, on the leveled pad and the second
7.2
Packet Pg. 84
Development Review No. PL2018-118 Page 3 of 9
story addition is located above the existing and proposed addition to the first floor, at the
rear of the house. There will be no grading and no site improvements are proposed on
the property.
Architectural Features, Colors, and Materials: The home is 1970s tract home with
horizontal wood siding at the front of the house and stucco on the side and rear
elevations, gable roof, and clay roof tiles. The applicant is proposing hardie fiber cement
siding to be painted to match the existing house. Additionally, the applicant will replace
the existing wood siding on the first floor with hardie fiber cement siding to match the
size and look of the proposed second floor. The proposed roof will be integrated into the
existing roof by using the same roof pitch and materials as the existing structure.

ANALYSIS
Review Authority
The proposed project requires a land use approval through the Development Review
process. The analysis that follows provides the basis for staff’s recommendation to
approve the Development Review application.
Development Review (DBMC Section 22.48)
Additions which are equal to or greater than 50 percent of the existing habitable floor
area of all existing structures on site, or substantially change the appearance of an
existing residence require Planning Commission approval of a DR application.
Existing Front Elevation

Packet Pg. 87
Development Review No. PL2018-118 Page 6 of 9
Development Review approval is required to ensure compliance with the City’s General
Plan policies and design guidelines, and to minimize adverse effects of the proposed
project upon the surrounding properties and the City in general.
As stated in Section 22.48.010 of the Developme nt Code, the Development Review
process was established to ensure that new development and additions to existing
development are consistent with the General Plan “through the promotion of high
functional and aesthetic standards to complement and add to the economic, physical,
and social character” of Diamond Bar.
Development Standards: The following table compares the proposed project with the
City’s development standards for residential development in the RLM zone:

*Existing legal nonconforming structure and does not further encroach into setbacks.
Landscaping: Landscape plans are not required because the site is already
developed, and because the project is exe mpt from the City’s Water Efficient
Landscaping Ordinance. The ordinance would only apply if new or rehabilitated
landscaping of 2,500 square feet or more was being installed or altered. However,
landscaping that is damaged during construction will need to be restored upon project
completion. This requirement is included as a condition of approval.
Compatibility with Neighborhood
The project is located between existing two-story homes. Staff surveyed the 24 houses
that are located on Autumn Hill Road to compare the existing livable square-footages of
these homes. Twenty-one of those homes are two story. These homes range between
1,822 to 3,002 square feet (five of the homes are 3,002 square feet). The total proposed
square-footage of the subject home is 3,201 square feet, which is approximately 200
7.2
Packet Pg. 88
Development Review No. PL2018-118 Page 7 of 9
square feet larger than the largest homes on the street.
Although the subject property would have the largest home on Autumn Hill Road, the
proposed massing of the second-story addition is designed in manner that respects the
existing scale of the streetscape. The proposed second story is stepped back 26 to 30
feet from the front of the first story (approximately 50 feet from the front property line),
with the massing concentrated toward the rear of the str ucture. The existing garage,
front porch, and living room—located at the front of the building—include lower roof
elements that help reduce the overall scale of building. The massing of the building as
seen from the street thus is essentially unchanged.
Based on the foregoing, staff finds that the project follows the principles of the City’s
Residential Design Guidelines as follows:
The addition will conform to all development standards, including building height
and setbacks;
A gradual transition between the addition and existing residence is achieved
through appropriate setbacks, building height and window and door placement;
Placement and relationship of windows, doors, and other window openings are
carefully integrated with the building’s overall design;
Elevations are treated with detailed architectural elements;
The dwelling entry is articulated through massing treatment and incorporates
detailed design elements; and
The second story addition is set back 30 feet from the front of the house.
Privacy and Sensitivity to Adjacent Neighbors: Staff reviewed the location of the
proposed balcony and second story windows to verify that there will be minimal privacy
concerns with the adjacent neighbors. The proposed balcony is located at the rear of
the second floor addition and extends 8 feet, 9 inches out above the second floor. The
balcony is located 24 feet, 8 inches from the rear property line. Although the
neighboring properties to the west are located on a lower pad, there are existing trees
on the slopes of the neighboring lots that provide screening into the backyards of the
neighboring properties. Additionally, there are three bedroom windows on the proposed
second story facing the adjacent property to the north and two windows from the game
and sitting rooms facing the adjacent property to the south . There is an existing pool
located in the rear yard of the property to the north. Staff does not find privacy loss to
be a project impact to the neighboring property to the north because the applicant
reviewed the proposed plans and has received written support from the neighbor to the
north. Staff is including a condition of approval to plant Italian Cypress trees along the
south side property line to provide privacy between the two properties.
Deed Restriction: If the proposed project is approved, the residence will have a total of
five bedrooms and four bathrooms. Staff is including a condition of approval requiring a
deed restriction to be recorded with the County of Los Angeles which restricts the rental
of rooms of other portions of the property under two or more separate agreements and
prohibits use of the property as a boarding or rooming house.

B. RESOLUTION
NOW, THEREFORE, it is found, determined and resolved by the Planning
Commission of the City of Diamond Bar as follows:
1. The Planning Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts set
forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct; and
2. The Planning Commission hereby determines the Project to be
Categorically Exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the provisions of Article 19,
Section 15301 (e) (additions to existing structures) of the CEQA Guidelines.
Therefore, no further environmental review is required.
C. FINDINGS OF FACT
Based on the findings and conclusions set forth herein and as prescribed under
Diamond Bar Municipal Code (DBMC) Section 22.48, this Planning Commission
hereby finds as follows:
Development Review Findings (DBMC Section 22.48.040)
1. The design and layout of the proposed development is consistent with the
applicable elements of the City's General Plan, City Design Guidelines, and
development standards of the applicable district, design guidelines, and
architectural criteria for special areas (e.g., theme areas, specific plans,
community plans, boulevards or planned developments).
The design and layout of the proposed two -story addition consisting of a
1,379 square-foot, two-story addition and 242 square-foot balcony to an
existing one-story, single-family residence is consistent with the City’s
General Plan, City Design Guidelines and Development Code standards.
The mass and scale of the addition are proportionate to the existing house
and surrounding properties.
The project site is not part of any theme area, specific plan, community plan,
boulevard or planned development.
2. The design and layout of the proposed development will not interfere with
the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future development s, and
will not create traffic or pedestrian hazards.
The proposed addition will not interfere with the use and enjoyment of
neighboring existing or future developments because the use of the project
site is designed for a single-family home and the surrounding uses are also
single-family homes. In addition, no protected trees exist on site.
7.2.a
Packet Pg. 93
3 PC Resolution No. 2018-XX
The proposed addition will not interfere with vehicular or pedestrian
movements, such as access or other functional requirements of a single -
family home because it complies with the requirements for driveway widths
and is a continuation of an existing use.
3. The architectural design of the proposed development is compatible with
the character of the surrounding neighborhood and will maintain and
enhance the harmonious, orderly and attractive development contemplated
by Chapter 22.48: Development Review Standards, the City’s Design
Guidelines, the City's General Plan, or any applicable specific plan.
The project is located between existing, two-story homes to the south and
north. The project is designed to be compatible with the character of the
existing homes in the neighborhood, in terms of massing and scale. The
first floor addition is located at the rear of the house and is not visible from
the street. The second story addition is located toward the rear of the house
above the first floor—approximately 50 feet from the front property line and
30 feet from the front of the house —which mitigates the overall mass and
bulk of the two-story house as seen from the street. Although the
neighboring properties to the west are located on a lower pad, there are
existing trees on the slopes of the neighboring lots that provide screening
into the backyards of the neighboring properties. There are three proposed
bedroom windows on the north side of the addition and two windows from
the proposed game and sitting rooms facing the property to the south. Staff
does not find privacy loss to be a project impact to the neighboring
properties because the applicant reviewed the p roposed plans and has
received written support from the neighbor to the north. Staff is also
including a condition of approval to plant Italian Cypress trees along the
south side property line to provide privacy between the two properties.
The proposed addition will not negatively impact the look and character of
the neighborhood.
4. The design of the proposed development will provide a desirable
environment for its occupants and visiting public as well as its neighbors
through good aesthetic use of materials, texture, color, and will remain
aesthetically appealing.
The home is 1970s tract home with horizontal wood siding at the front of the
house and stucco on the side and rear elevations, gable roof, and clay roof
tiles. The proposed addition is designed to blend into the existing house by
using similar building materials and exterior colors of the existing house.
The proposed roof will be integrated into the existing roof by using the same
roof pitch and materials as the existing structure. The second story addition
is located toward the rear of the house above the first floor—approximately
50 feet from the front property line and 30 feet from the front of the house —
which mitigates the overall mass and bulk of the two -story house as seen
7.2.a
Packet Pg. 94
4 PC Resolution No. 2018-XX
from the street. Therefore, the proposed addition will have similar massing
and scale as the existing house and will not negatively impact the look and
character of the neighborhood.
5. The proposed development will not be detrimental to public health, safety
or welfare or materially injurious (e.g., negative effect on property values or
resale(s) of property) to the properties or improvements in the vicinity.
Before the issuance of any City permits, the proposed project is required to
comply with all conditions within the approved resolution, and the Building
and Safety Division and Public Works Departments requirements.
Through the permit and inspection process, the referenced agencies will
ensure that the proposed project is not detrimental to the public he alth,
safety or welfare or materially injurious to the properties or improvements in
the vicinity.
6. The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the provisions
of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The proposed project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as set forth under Article 19
Section 15301 (e) (additions to existing structures) of the CEQA guidelines.
Based upon the findings and conclusion set forth above, the Plan ning Commission hereby
approves this Application, subject to the following conditions:
1. Development shall substantially comply with the plans and documents presented
to the Planning Commission at the public hearing.
2. The applicant shall plant Italian cypress trees along the south side property line to
provide screening between the subject property and the adjacent property to the
south.
3. Prior to final inspection, the applicant shall remove the unpermitted trellis structure
at the south side of the property.
4. Standard Conditions. The applicant shall comply with the standard development
conditions attached hereto.
5. Prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant shall record, and provide the
City with a conformed recorded copy of, a Covenant and Agreement or similar
document in a form approved by the City Attorney, which restricts the rental of
rooms or other portions of the property under two or more separate agreements
and prohibits use of the property as a boarding or rooming house, except t o the
extent otherwise permitted by the Diamond Bar Municipal Code or applicable state
or federal law.

Project Description
The existing 1,784 square-foot, one-story home consists of common areas (dining
room, living room, family room, office and kitchen), two bedrooms, four bathrooms, and
a two-car garage.
The applicant is proposing to construct a second -story addition that includes remodeling
the interior, the addition of a pantry, loft and three bedrooms, the demolition of two
bathrooms on the lower level and the addition of two bathrooms on the upper level.
There will be a total of four bedrooms and four bathrooms in the residence. A new
balcony at the rear of the residence is also proposed. The existing detached patio cover
in the rear yard will be demolished.
The height of the existing house is 1 4 feet. The proposed addition will increase the
height of the existing house to 22 feet. The proposed addition is located above the
existing home, and consists of the following components:
PROJECT SUMMARY (square footage)

Site and Grading Configuration: The subject property is a rectangular lot with an
ascending slope at the rear of the property. The existing house is situated on a leveled
pad. The addition is proposed above the existing home. There will be no grading and
no site improvements are proposed on the property.
Architectural Features, Colors, and Materials: The home is a 1980s tract home with
vertical wood siding, brick veneer, stucco, and concrete tiles on a hipped roof. The
façade of the existing home will be updated with the proposed addition. The brick
veneer will be removed from the façade and stone veneer is proposed at the front entry.
A desert tan vinyl siding and neutral toned stucco are proposed. Articulation is provided
by variable roof heights with hipped roof forms, recesses of the second story, and the
front porch.

ANALYSIS
Review Authority
The proposed project requires a land use approval through the Development Review
and Minor Conditional Use Permit process. The analysis that follows provides the basis
for staff’s recommendation to approve the Development Review and Minor Conditional
Use Permit applications.
Development Review (DBMC Section 22.48)
Additions which are equal to or greater than 50 percent of the existing habitable floor
area of all existing structures on site, or substantially change the appea rance of an
existing residence require Planning Commission approval of a DR application.
Development Review approval is required to ensure compliance with the City’s General
Plan policies and design guidelines, and to minimize adverse effects of the propo sed
project upon the surrounding properties and the City in general.
As stated in Section 22.48.010 of the Development Code, the Development Review
process was established to ensure that new development and additions to existing
development are consistent with the General Plan “through the promotion of high
functional and aesthetic standards to complement and add to the economic, physical,
and social character” of Diamond Bar.

* Minor Conditional Use Permit is requested to allow the continuation of a nonconfo rming structure because the
addition is greater than 50 percent of the existing square footage and not limited to the ground floor. See MCUP
discussion below.
Minor Conditional Use Permit (DBMC Chapter 22.56)
An MCUP is required if a change or expansion of a nonconforming structure is greater
than 50 percent of the existing square footage of all structures on site, or if the addition
is not limited to the ground floor. Current development standards require a minimum
setback of five feet from one side property line and 10 feet on the other. The existing
residence has a nonconforming west side setback of 6’-6” (where 10 is required). The
east side complies with the minimum setback at 5 feet.
The City recognizes that homeowners should be allowed to make appropriate
improvements to their properties, even if the existing improvements do not fully conform
to current development standards. Therefore, the City has established the MCUP
process for such additions, subject to the findings set forth in the Development Code.
MCUPs are normally subject to approval of the City’s Hearing Officer (typically the
Community Development Director). However, because this MCUP is being reviewed as
part of a DR application, both land use entitlements are subject to review and approval
of the Planning Commission.
7.3

Development Review and Minor Conditional Use Permit Planning Case No. PL2018-45
Page 7 of 10
Staff believes that approving the MCUP as described above is appropriate and
compatible with other residences in the neighborhood, based on the following facts and
observations:
The existing dwelling was built in 1986, prior to the incorporation of the City of
Diamond Bar;
The proposed addition does not further encroach into the existing nonconforming 6’-
6” setback from the west side property line;
The proposed addition continues the same building setback line of the existing
house; and
The neighboring properties also have nonconforming setbacks, so the proposed
project will remain consistent with other homes within the neighborhood.
Compatibility with Neighborhood
A survey of the 50 homes along both sides of F eatherwood Drive, indicate that three
base floor plans, consisting of both one and two-story homes, were built by the tract
developer circa 1986. A review of County Assessor’s records indicate that the original
floor plans were approximately 1,400, 1,800 and 2,500 square feet. Over time,
additions were built, and the three largest homes along Featherwood range between
3,000 and 3,300 square feet.
The proposed addition would result in the subject property having the largest home on
Featherwood Drive. To mitigate potential compatibility issues, the project is designed to
respect the scale and character of the existing homes in the neighborhood by
implementing the following key principles of the City’s Residential Design Guidelines:
The addition will conform to all development standards, including setbacks, height
and lot coverage;
The scale and proportions of the proposed addition are well balanced and
appropriate for the site, and provides for articulation by incorporating variable roof
heights with hipped roof forms, recesses of the second story, a front porch with its
own roof element and rear balcony;
A gradual transition between the existing residence and addition is achieved through
appropriate setbacks, building height and window and door placement;
The addition is visually integrated with the primary structure, by utilizing matching
colors and materials, and consistent architectural details, throughout the proposed
addition; and
Placement and relationship of windows, doors, and other window openings are
carefully integrated with the building’s overall design.

Page 8 of 10
Privacy and Sensitivity to Adjacent Neighbors: Staff reviewed the location of the
proposed addition for potential privacy concerns. The two -story addition will have views
into adjacent neighbors’ rear yards from the second-story windows and balcony facing
the rear. Therefore, a letter was sent to both neighbors to the west and east. Staff
does not find privacy loss to be a project impact to the neighboring properties because
the applicant reviewed the proposed plans with the neighbors to the west and east and
has received support from both neighbors.
Deed Restriction: If the proposed project is approved, the residence will have a total of
four bedrooms and four bathrooms. Staff is including a condition of approval requiring a
deed restriction to be recorded with the County of Los Angeles which restricts the rental
of rooms of other portions of the property under two or more separate agreements and
prohibits use of the property as a boarding or rooming house.
Additional Review
The Public Works Department and Building and Safety Division reviewed this project,
and their comments are included in the attached resolution as conditions of approval.

Driveway Width/Landscaping
For projects such as the one proposed, landscape plans are not required because the
site is already developed, and because the project is exempt from the City’s Water
Efficient Landscaping Ordinance. The ordinance would only apply if new or
rehabilitated landscaping of 2,500 square feet or more was being installed or altered.
However, landscaping that is damaged during construction will need to be restored
upon project completion. This requirement is included as a condition of approval.
However, in the course of reviewing the proposed project, staff found that an
unpermitted driveway extension was installed in the front yard, between the original
driveway and the walkway leading to the front door. Pursuant to DBMC
Section 22.30.080(5)a.1, an extension of a driveway may only be permitted if located
toward the nearest side or rear yard, and the total hardscape area of the front yard,
inclusive of walkways, does not exceed 50 percent of the front yard area. A condition of
approval is included in the draft resolution to re quire the removal of the unpermitted
driveway extension, and that the front yard be landscaped to conform to the
requirements set forth under DBMC Section 22.30.080(5)a.1 prior to final inspection of
the new construction. The illustration below depicts the area that must be landscaped
in order for the subject property to be in compliance with the City’s front yard driveway
width standards.
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING:
On September 28, 2018, public hearing notices were mailed to property owners within a
1,000-foot radius of the project site. On September 28, 2018, the notice was published
in the San Gabriel Valley Tribune and Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspapers. A notice

B. RESOLUTION
NOW, THEREFORE, it is found, determined and resolved by the Planning Commission
of the City of Diamond Bar as follows:
1. The Planning Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts set forth
in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct; and
2. The Planning Commission hereby determines the Project to be Categorically
Exempt from the provisions of the California Environm ental Quality Act (CEQA)
pursuant to the provisions of Article 19, Section 15301 (e) (additions to existing
structures) of the CEQA Guidelines. Therefore, no further environmental review
is required.
C. FINDINGS OF FACT
Based on the findings and conclusions set forth herein and as prescribed under
Diamond Bar Municipal Code (DBMC) Sections 22.48, 22.56, and 22.68 this Planning
Commission hereby finds as follows:
Development Review Findings (DBMC Section 22.48.040)
1. The design and layout of the proposed development is consistent with the
applicable elements of the City's General Plan, City Design Guidelines, and
development standards of the applicable district, design guidelines, and
architectural criteria for special areas (e.g., theme areas, specific plans,
community plans, boulevards or planned developments).
The design and layout of the proposed two-story addition consisting of 1,555
square feet of floor area, a 105 square-foot front porch, and a 220 square-foot
rear balcony to an existing single-family residence is consistent with the City’s
General Plan, City Design Guidelines and development standards by complying
with all required setbacks, with the exception of an existing nonconforming west
side setback of 6’-6”, where 10 feet is required. The addition is located above
the existing house, and the existing front and side setbacks will not change.
The project site is not part of any theme area, specific plan, community plan,
boulevard or planned development.
2. The design and layout of the proposed development will not interfere with the use
and enjoyment of neighboring existing or future development s, and will not create
traffic or pedestrian hazards.
The proposed addition will not interfere with the use and enjoyment of
neighboring existing or future developments because the use of the project site
is designed for a single-family home and the surrounding uses are also single -
family homes. The addition is proposed above the existing house and does not
further encroach into the nonconforming west side setback of 6’-6”.
7.3.a
Packet Pg. 124
3 PC Resolution No. PL2018-XX
The proposed addition will not interfere with vehicular or pedestrian movements ,
such as access or other functional requirements of a single-family home because
it complies with the requirements for driveway widths and is a continuation of an
existing use.
3. The architectural design of the proposed development is compatible with the
character of the surrounding neighborhood and will maintain and enhance the
harmonious, orderly and attractive development contemplated by Chapter 22.48:
Development Review Standards, the City’s Design Guidelines, the City's General
Plan, or any applicable specific plan.
The project is designed to be compatible with the character of the existing homes
in the neighborhood. There are other two-story homes in the neighborhood.
Homes in this neighborhood consist of 1980s tract homes with building materials
such as concrete roof tiles, stucco, wood siding, stone and brick. The
architectural materials and details of the addition are similar to the homes in the
surrounding area. Therefore, staff finds that the addition will be visually integrated
into the existing home and not negatively impact the look and character of the
neighborhood.
4. The design of the proposed development will provide a desirable environment for
its occupants and visiting public as well as its neighbors through good aesthetic
use of materials, texture, color, and will remain aesthetically appealing.

5. The proposed development will not be detrimental to public health, safety or
welfare or materially injurious (e.g., negative effect on property values or
resale(s) of property) to the properties or improvements in the vicinity.
Before the issuance of any City permits, the proposed project is required to
comply with all conditions within the approved resolution, and the Building and
Safety Division and Public Works Departments requirements.
Through the permit and inspection process, the referenced agencies will ensure
that the proposed project is not detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare

Minor Conditional Use Permit Findings (DBMC Section 22.56.040)
1. The proposed use is allowed within the subject zoning district with the approval
of a Minor Conditional Use Permit and complies with all other applicable
provisions of this Development Code and the Municipal Code.
The existing single-family dwelling is a permitted use in the RL zone. A Minor
Conditional Use Permit (MCUP) is requested to allow an addition over 50 percent
of the existing square-footage and not limited to the ground floor, to a
nonconforming structure with a preexisting west side setback of 6’-6” (where 10
feet is required).
The preexisting substandard west side setback renders the project
nonconforming. The addition of a nonconforming structure requires approval of
a Minor Conditional Use Permit because the addition is greater than 50 percent
of the existing home, and is not limited to the ground floor. The proposed addition
consisting of 1,555 square feet of floor area to an existing one-story home
complies with the development standards of the RL zone and will not further
encroach into the nonconforming west side setback.
2. The proposed use is consistent with the general plan and any applicable specific
plan.
The proposed addition to a single-family dwelling unit is consistent with the City’s
adopted General Plan. The site is not subject to the provisions of any specific
plan.
3. The design, location, size and operating characteristics of the proposed use are
compatible with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity.
The existing single-family dwelling and the proposed addition consisting of
1,555 square feet of floor area will not further encroach into the existing
nonconforming west side setback of 6’-6”. The proposed two-story addition is
located above the existing house. The design of the existing single-family
dwelling and the proposed addition are compatible with the character of the
existing homes in the neighborhood because the applicant is proposing to update
the façade and integrate the addition to the existing home . Therefore, the
addition will be visually integrated into the existing home and not negatively
impact the look and character of the neighborhood.
4. The subject site is physically suitable for the type and density/intensity of use
being proposed including access, provision of utilities, compatibility with adjoining
land uses, and the absence of physical constraints.
The subject site is physically suitable for the existing single-family residential
dwelling and the proposed addition. The existing and proposed use of land is
consistent with the surrounding land uses. The proposed addition of floor area is
consistent with the development standards for the RL zone and will not further
encroach into the existing nonconforming west side setback of 6’-6”.

5. Granting the Minor Conditional Use Permit will not be detrimental to the public
interest, health, safety, convenience or welfare, or materially injurious to persons,
property or improvements in the vicinity and zoning district in which the property
is located.
The granting of the Minor Conditional Use Permit will allow the addition of the
existing single-family dwelling unit in a manner similar with existing dwelling units
located in the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed expansion of the
dwelling unit will not negatively impact the public interest, health, safety
convenience or welfare.
6. The proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the provisions of the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The proposed project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as set forth under Article 19 Section 15301
(e) (additions to existing structure) of the CEQA Guidelines.
Non-Conforming Structures Findings (DBMC Section 22.68.030)
The addition, enlargement, extension, reconstruction, relocation or structural alteration of the
nonconforming structure would not result in the structure becoming:
1. Incompatible with other structures in the neighborhood.
The proposed two-story addition of floor area is consistent with the development
standards for the RL zone. The existing single-family dwelling and the proposed
addition consisting of 1,555 square feet of floor area will comply with current
development standards and not further encroach into the existing nonconforming
west side setback of 6’-6”. The proposed project is located above the existing
home. The existing and proposed land use is consistent with the surrounding land
uses and structures in the neighborhood. Additionally, the neighboring properties
also have nonconforming setbacks, so the proposed project will remain
consistent with other homes within the neighborhood.
2. Inconsistent with the general plan or any applicable specific plan.
The proposed addition to a single-family dwelling unit is consistent with the City’s
adopted General Plan. The site is not subject to the provisions of any specific
plan.
3. A restriction to the eventual/future compliance with the applicable regulations of
this Development Code.
The existing and proposed land use is consistent with the surrounding land uses
with similar side setbacks. The proposed addition of floor area is consistent with
the development standards for the RL zone and will not encroach into the existing
nonconforming west side setback of 6’-6”.

4. Detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of persons residing in the
neighborhood.
Before the issuance of any City permits, the proposed project is required to
comply with all conditions within the approved resolution, and the Building and
Safety Division and Public Works/Engineering Departments requirements.
Through the permit and inspection process, the referenced agencies will ensure
that the proposed project is not detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare
or materially injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity.
5. Detrimental and/or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood.
The addition to the existing single-family dwelling unit will be constructed in a
manner similar with existing dwelling units located in the surrounding community
and will not be detrimental and/or injurious to property and improvements in the
neighborhood.
Based upon the findings and conclusion set forth above, the Planning Commission hereby
approves this Application, subject to the following conditions:
1. Development shall substantially comply with the plans and documents presented to the
Planning Commission at the public hearing.
2. Prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant shall record, and provide the City with

Diamond Bar Municipal Code or applicable state or federal law.
3. Prior to final inspection approval, the applicant or designee shall remove the unpermitted
driveway extension and landscape the front yard area such that it is in full compliance
with the driveway and front yard development standards set forth under Diamond Bar
