11. CODE AMENDMENT 2024-0006, SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENTS 2024-0005 AND 2024-0006 - MODIFICATIONS TO THE MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL PARKING & PRIVATE STORAGE STANDARDS CITYWIDE, AND IN THE DOWNTOWN COMMERCIAL CORE & RED HILL AVENUE SPECIFIC PLANS On October 22, 2024, the Planning Commission recommended that the City Council adopt amendments to the multi-family residential parking and private storage requirements in the Tustin City Code, Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan and Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan. The subject amendments implement policy actions addressing potential barriers to housing production identified in an assessment of the Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan and Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan, which were presented to the City Council in December 2023. The proposed amendments would: 1. Implement a scalable parking requirement for multi-family residential development based on the number of bedrooms per unit, subject to the development standards within the Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan, Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan and Tustin City Code. 2. Allow tandem parking for resident parking spaces citywide. Tandem parking would continue to be prohibited for guest parking. 3. Remove the requirement for private storage areas within the Downtown Commercial Core Specific Plan and Red Hill Avenue Specific Plan, and remove the citywide requirement for private storage cabinets within carports.
