STAFF REPORT
Wixen Pipe & Supply, presently located on the west side of "E" Street, have
designed plans to relocate their business to a site they own on the west side of
"G" Street. The proposed development is located within the Central City South
Study Area which the City Council imposed a moratorium for development for 120
days.
The Wixen's diligently tried to locate a site outside the study area, but were
unsuccessful in doing this. As a result, several meetings were held to discuss
the open storage space which would exist when they relocated.
During the Central City South Study Team meeting on April 3, 1986, considerable
discussion was held on exempting the Wixens from the moratorium. It was generally
agreed that since they started their plans, approval of the exemption would be
justified, however, this exemption would only apply to the proposed development
and would not be construed as condoning open storage yards within the study area.
It was also agreed that this exemption would be subject to proper screening of the
facility to prevent an unsightly view from the 1-215 freeway and future
development adjacent to their parcel.
Mr. Wixen presented a landscape plan that consisted of a chainlink fence on three
sides of his site with high density Oleander bushes and trees. It was the general
feeling of the Study Team that this was unsatisfactory and they recommended walls
with trelliswork protruding at an upward angle be installed on at least two sides
of the parcel to eliminate visabi1ity from the public view.
Soltis Design, landscape engineers, presented several concepts of screening and
the Study Team recommended they be asked to work with staff to provide sketches
and cost estimates to be presented at the next Study Team meeting on April 11,
1986.
It was also suggested that in order to provide sufficient screening of this
facility and other areas along the 1-215 Freeway in the Study Area, communication
with Ca1trans would be required.
Staff recommends the following:
a) Approval of the exemption to the moratorium for Wixen Pipe & Supply
subject to approval of their screening plan. This exemption to
specifically state that this action is only for Wixen Pipe & Supply.
b) Authorization for the Redevelopment Agency to enter into negotiations
with Ca1trans to facilitate landscaping for the slopes within the
right-of-way of the 1-215 freeway that are adjacent to the Central City
South Study Area.
