Diamond Bar Plaza is located on the west side of South Diamond Bar Boulevard,
between Gentle Springs Lane and Golden Springs Drive. The shopping center consists
of a variety of tenants such as retail, restaurants, personal services, an insurance
broker, a dental office, a pharmacy, a dance studio, and a dry cleaner. The subject
property is comprised of two parcels totaling approximately 4.56 acres and two
commercial buildings totaling approximately 36,444 square feet. Diamond Bar Plaza
provides 225 off-street parking spaces.
The site shares reciprocal parking and access with the Diamond Bar Ranch shopping
center to the north, anchored by Sprouts and Ross Dress For Less; and the McDonald's
restaurant at the corner of Diamond Bar Boulevard and Gentle Springs Lane. Although
the 76 gas station and Walnut Valley Water District pump station share reciprocal
access, they have their own dedicated parking spaces. There are 588 off-street parking
spaces provided on site, inclusive of Diamond Bar Plaza's 225 off-street parking
spaces.

Project Description
"The Pilates Circle Diamond Bar" is proposing to occupy a 1,518 square -foot vacant
lease space located in the eastern portion of the shopping center, formerly occupied by
Fantastic Sams. The Pilates Circle is an operator of boutique Pilates fitness studios with
existing locations in the cities of Chino Hills, Corona, and Norco. Pilates is a system of
low -impact exercises that focuses on the body's core, abdomen, back, thighs, glutes
and pelvic floor through the use of special equipment such as the Reformer, Pilates ball,
and ExoChair. The proposed facility would include the following areas:
• Waiting area for members to check in;
• Exercise area with 10 reformers to accommodate up to 10 members per class; and
• Supply room and 1 restroom

Review Authority (DBCC Section 22.58)
A CUP is required for uses where the 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 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 business without full review
and approval by the Planning Commission.

Required Parking
The required number of parking spaces for Pilates fitness studio is one space per 150
square feet of gross floor area and one (1) space for each employee. Shopping centers
between 20,000 and 50,000 square feet in size are required to provide one parking
space for every 250 square feet of gross floor area. The parking requirements for
businesses approved under a CUP (e.g., schools, tutoring, health/fitness studios, etc.,)
are calculated separately.
As previously mentioned, the project site shares reciprocal parking and access with the
neighboring parcel that includes the Diamond Bar Ranch shopping center. There are
588 total off-street parking spaces on site, inclusive of Diamond Bar Plaza's 225 off-
street parking spaces. The parking required for the current mix of uses within the
Diamond Bar Plaza shopping center and the Diamond Bar Ranch shopping center,
minus the proposed Pilates fitness studio, is 510 spaces. The parking requirement for
the proposed Pilates fitness studio is 11 spaces. The total off-street parking
requirement for the Diamond Bar Plaza center and the Diamond Bar Ranch center
would thus be 522 spaces, leaving a surplus of 66 spaces based on current
Development Code parking requirements.

Parking Demand
When reviewing parking impacts on commercial centers, the various uses and peak
business hours for those uses are taken into consideration. Diamond Bar Plaza has
uses ranging from restaurants, dry cleaners, a fitness center, and other retail and
personal service uses. Diamond Bar Ranch has uses ranging from restaurants, a drive-
thru cafe, a massage establishment within Phenix Salon Suites, a grocery store, and
other retail uses. The varying uses result in a range of peak business hours and parking
demands. The peak parking demand typically occurs on weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to
6:00 p.m. The proposed Pilates fitness studio will have classes throughout the day, on
weekdays and weekends. In addition, by breaking up the start times of each class into
10-minute intervals, the overlap of members driving to classes and leaving from classes
at the same time is avoided.
Assuming that each instructor and member arrives in a separate vehicle, the proposed
use could potentially generate a demand for 11 parking spaces to accommodate the
one instructor and the arrival of 10 members at the start of each class. Because class
times are spaced between 10-minute gaps, the overlap between trips is not anticipated.
However, under a worst -case scenario, the proposed use could conceivably generate a
peak demand of 22 parking spaces during the brief period of transition between
outgoing and incoming members.
Assuming the existing massage establishment could generate a peak demand of 6
parking spaces, the existing Chipotle & Coffee Bean could generate a peak demand of
21 parking spaces, the existing Habit burger grill could generate a peak demand of 12
parking spaces, the existing CrossFit fitness facility could generate a peak demand of
28 parking spaces, and the existing dance school could generate a peak demand of 42
parking spaces, and all other businesses are experiencing peak operations (a highly
unlikely scenario), the shopping center's peak parking demand could reach 572 spaces.
Since 588 parking spaces are available, there would still be a surplus of 16 spaces
under this scenario.
Taking into account the proposed 10-minute gaps between classes and only private
one-on-one lessons are available from 1.00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., staff does not foresee
any parking issues resulting from the proposed use. The existing parking supply is
adequate and can accommodate the proposed Pilates fitness studio, together with the
center's other tenants and patrons. In addition, the proposed Pilates fitness studio will
not add square footage to the existing building.

Compatibility with Neighborhood
The Diamond Bar Plaza shopping center is surrounded by commercial uses to the
north, south, and west and residential uses to the east. The shopping center has
numerous diverse uses, including service and retail uses, restaurants, medical and
professional offices, banks, pharmacies, fitness facility and dance studio.
Given the proposed hours of operation, the availability of parking, and the diversity of
uses, the proposed Pilates fitness studio is expected to be a compatible use at this
location. The proposed use is consistent with the current zoning designation of Regional
Commercial.

7.1
Noise: The Pilates Circle will have low background music playing throughout their
classes, kept at a volume that allows the instructor to be heard by their clients. The
maximum sound level of the music will not exceed 55 decibels to stay in compliance
with the City's Noise Ordinance. Noise generated by the proposed Pilates fitness studio
would likely be negligible, and would not be a nuisance to the adjacent businesses or
immediate surroundings.
However, once the Pilates fitness studio is in operation, and should noise, traffic and/or
parking issues arise, the Community Development Director, after providing the applicant
a reasonable opportunity to mitigate the impact(s) to an acceptable level, may refer the
matter back to the Planning Commission to consider amending or revoking the
Conditional Use Permit to address such impacts (Condition of Approval #4).
Additional Review
The Building and Safety Division reviewed this project, and provided conditions of
approval for inclusion in the attached resolution.

RESOLUTION NO. 2024-XX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND
BAR, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. PL2024-42
TO OPERATE A PILATES FITNESS STUDIO WITHIN A 1,518 SQUARE -FOOT
VACANT LEASE SPACE LOCATED AT 303 SOUTH DIAMOND BAR BOULEVARD,
SUITE A, DIAMOND BAR, CA (APN 8717-008-029).
A. RECITALS
1. Property owner, Phoenix Gluck, L.P., and applicant, Emily Herrera for The Pilates
Circle, have filed an application for Conditional Use Permit No. PL2024-42 to

Therefore, no further environmental review is required.
FINDINGS OF FACT
Based on the findings and conclusions set forth herein and as prescribed under
Diamond Bar City Code (DBCC) Section 22.58, the Planning Commission hereby finds
and approves as follows:
Conditional Use Permit Review Findings (DBCC Section 22.58)
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 DBCC Section 22.10.030 Table 2-6, health and fitness facilities, as
defined by DBCC Section 22.80.020, are permitted in the C-3 zoning district with
approval of a conditional use permit. The proposed fitness studio will be located
in a tenant space within Diamond Bar Plaza, an existing shopping center.
Through compliance with the conditions of approval stipulating the manner in
which the use must be conducted, the proposed fitness studio 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 Goal LU-G-11: ("Support
existing commercial centers by encouraging ongoing investment and, where
appropriate, reuse and redevelopment') in that the Proposed Use will occupy an
existing tenant space.
The Proposed Use is consistent with General Plan Goal ED-G-3: ("Support the
retention, rehabilitation, and/or expansion of existing businesses, and the
attraction of new businesses') in that the Proposed Use is a new business
locating within an existing shopping center.
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 will be located within an existing tenant space within a 36,444
square -foot, multi -tenant commercial shopping center occupied by various retail,
restaurants, office, and service uses. The Proposed Use complies with the City's
Development Code parking requirements, and the parking demand generated by
the Proposed Use is not likely to exceed the number of on -premise parking
spaces available to serve the Proposed Use at any given time. The Proposed
Use will operate from Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and again
from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m., and 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.
Low background music will be played throughout each class, kept at a volume
2
PC Reso No. 2024-XX
Packet Pg. 20
7.1.a
that allows the instructor to be heard by their clients. The applicant proposes to
keep the sound level of the music at a volume not to exceed 55 decibels, a level
that is in compliance with the City's Noise Ordinance. Therefore, noise generated
by the Proposed Use would likely be negligible, and not be a nuisance to the
adjacent businesses or immediate surroundings.
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 building and surrounding 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 Proposed Use is located within a multi -tenant shopping center occupied by
retail stores, a fitness center, a dance studio, restaurants, a dry cleaner, and
personal service uses. The project site shares reciprocal parking and access with
the Diamond Bar Ranch shopping center to the north and the McDonald's
restaurant at the corner of Diamond Bar Boulevard and Gentle Springs Lane.
Diamond Bar Ranch has uses ranging from restaurants, a drive-thru cafe, a
massage establishment, a grocery store, and other retail uses. The existing gross
floor area of the Diamond Bar Ranch shopping center (including McDonald's)
requires 321 parking spaces, the existing gross floor area of the Diamond Bar
Plaza shopping center requires 120 parking spaces, the existing massage
establishment requires 1 parking space, the existing Chipotle & Coffee Bean
requires 21 parking spaces, the existing Habit burger grill requires 12 parking
spaces, the existing fitness center requires 20 parking spaces, the existing dance
studio requires 15 parking spaces, and the proposed Pilates fitness studio
requires 11 parking spaces based on Development Code requirements. The
Diamond Bar Plaza shopping center provides 225 off-street parking spaces and
the Diamond Bar Ranch shopping center provides 363 off-street parking spaces
for a combined total of 588 off-street parking spaces on site. The varying uses
result in a range of peak business hours and parking demands. Assuming that
each instructor and member arrives in a separate vehicle, the proposed use could
potentially generate a demand for 11 parking spaces. In addition, class times are
spaced between 10-minute gaps to limit the demand for parking spaces during
the Pilates fitness studio's operating hours. Under a worst -case scenario, the
existing massage establishment could generate a peak demand of 6 parking
spaces, the existing Chipotle & Coffee Bean could generate a peak demand of
21 parking spaces, the existing Habit burger grill could generate a peak demand
of 12 parking spaces, the existing fitness facility could generate a peak demand
of 28 parking spaces, the existing dance studio could generate a peak demand
of 42 parking spaces, and the proposed Pilates fitness studio could potentially
generate a peak demand of 22 parking spaces during the brief period of transition
between outgoing and incoming members. Assuming all other businesses are
experiencing peak operations, the shopping center's peak parking demand could
reach 572 spaces. Since 588 parking spaces are available, there would still be a
surplus of 16 spaces under this scenario. As such, the operational characteristics
and parking demands anticipated to be associated with the Proposed Use are
3
PC Reso No. 2024-XX
Packet Pg. 21
7.1.a
compatible with the existing uses within the center.
Given the proposed hours of operation, the overall parking demands, and the
types of adjoining uses, it is reasonable to conclude that the Proposed Use will
be compatible with the other uses in the commercial center and neighborhood.
The Proposed Use is physically suitable at the subject site because it is operating
within an existing commercial shopping 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.
Prior to the issuance of any City permits, the Project is required to comply with
all conditions of approval within this Resolution, and all applicable provisions of
the latest edition of the California Building Code and local amendments thereto.
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.
D. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
Based upon the findings and conclusion set forth above, the Planning Commission
hereby approves Conditional Use Permit No. PL2024-42, subject to the following
conditions:
1. This approval is for the operation of a Pilates fitness studio in a 1,518 square -foot
tenant space located within an existing shopping center as described in the
application on file with the Planning Division, the Planning Commission staff

PC Reso No. 2024-XX
Packet Pg. 22
7.1.a
4. If, at any time, the City finds that the Use is the cause of a parking deficiency,
noise nuisance, or other land use impact, within or beyond the subject property
boundaries, the Community Development Director, after providing the entitlement
holder a reasonable opportunity to mitigate the impact(s) to an acceptable level,
may refer the matter back to the Planning Commission to consider amending or
revoking this Conditional Use Permit to address such impacts.
5. No changes to the approved scope of services comprising the Use shall be
permitted unless the applicant first applies for an amendment to this Conditional
Use Permit, pays all application processing fees and receives approval from the
Planning Commission, except that the Community Development Director may
