... The fact that Sunroad has not just one
but at least three projects on the table, all with the same disregard
for the FAA, city regulations or the law, is just more proof. And as for
Montgomery Field - I work for Northrop Grumman on the border of the
field. At least 6 months ago, a series of city reps and "consultants"
came in to pitch to our brass the idea of buying the property on which
the field is on. We weren't interested. So you tell me - how committed
is the city to this airport? They have this property quietly on the
block and the Sunroad deal is part and parcel of it. Gee Jerry - got a
little mud on your face. You are dirty. I was stupid enough to vote you
in once. Never again.

Steven Strauss of Cooley Godward Kronish also works for Manchester
Financial on the Navy Broadway Complex. Mr. Strauss is the person who
convinced the City Council that there has been no movement on the active
Coronado Fault of the active Rose Canyon Fault Zone (RCFZ) since the
"prehistoric time of the dinosaurs." Therefore, Manchester does not need
to turn in a thorough fault investigation to the City Geologist or the
California Coastal Commission. The Jurassic Period of the Dinosaurs was
208,000,000 to 144,000,000 years ago. According to a 10 News
Investigation "The recently discovered Coronado Fault was active as
recently as 500 years ago. It runs under Coronado and San Diego Bay and
comes ashore in San Diego near Seaport Village, just south of the
proposed complex." Scientist from USCD School of Engineering, Scripps
Institute of Oceanography, Caltrans, the Coastal Commission, the State
Geologists and other all agree "public safety makes it imperative that
the exact location of these youthful faults be mapped onshore prior to
any development." Mr. Strauss of Cooley Godward Kronish does not have
the safety of the public on his mind when he makes his statements of:
Don't worry about it. There is no problem here. Watch the video and see

COUNTY AIRPORT LAND USE COMPATIBILITY PLAN (ALUCP) POLICY DOCUMENTS -
MARCH 2005 DRAFT.
by Gail Goldberg. cc: Tom Story - Chief of Staff Mayor's Office;
Tait Galloway - Planning.
Within Compatibility Zone D, ALUC review is required for any proposed
object taller than 70 (200-SD) feet above ground level.
Zone D - Primary Traffic Patterns and Runway Buffer Area. Airspace
review required for object 70 (100-SD) feet tall.
Within Compatibility Zone D, generally there is no concern with regards
to any object up to 70 (200-SD) feet tall.
Existing Land Use. Height Restrictions. FAR Part 77. FAA Notification
Strikeout Revision.
Airport Influence Area - Primary areas consists of compatibility zone A
through D.
Review of net building floor area of 20,000 (50,000-SD) square
feet or greater.
I have before our group (Kearny Mesa Community Planning Board) now a
proposal for comments on a 12 story 200,000 sf office building.
This project is fortunately just inside the D Zone so only an airspace
review is required for the height limitation.
I have discussed these comments with some of the membership but please
accept these as my personal comments.
[Kearny Mesa Floor-Area Ratio (FAR) is 0.50 = 50 percent lot coverage.]
Ms. Lichman represents Sunroad property at Montgomery Field, Brown
Field, and Lindbergh Field (SDIA).
Sunroad is also developing a mixed use project at Montgomery Field, all
of which is located in Zone D, currently comprised of 600
multi-family units and one million square feet of commercial office
space, in buildings ranging from 8 to 12 stories.
For Noise Contours at Brown Field, use the operational data for
Montgomery Field.
Part 77 criteria for height. The March 2005 Draft ALUCP application of
which results in radical height restrictions.
Sunroad alone stands to lose the potential for hundred of housing units
and acres of office development upon which years of time and
hard-earned dollars have already been spent in planning, processing
entitlements and making improvements.
Sunroad request that the ALUC postpone its scheduled approval date.
The March 2005 Draft ALUCP's Definition of "Existing Use" is Vague and
Inconsistent. Vested rights.
Safety cannot be an issue under the March 2005 Draft ALUCP's own
analysis, as Zone D encompasses an area far outside that where the
bulk of accidents are likely to occur.
The ALUC's Safety Analysis and Restriction Impinge on the Realm Governed
by FAA. Each sponsor of a project that meets the reporting
criteria outline in Part 77 is required to notify the FAA's Air Traffic
Division in writing of the proposed project and must provide
specific information regarding construction dates, building design,
building heights, construction... and any other information
required by the FAA. Upon receipt of a Notice of Proposed Construction
the FAA Air Traffic Division will forward the proposal to
other FAA Divisions for their independent review. Further, FAA's Flight
Standards Division is charged with ensuring that flight
safety is not compromised by the placement of any structure or activity
in an area that is not deemed to be consistent with the
safe operation of aircraft and the preservation of life and property on
the ground. In short, if during its evaluation based on these
many diverse local as well as Federal parameters that FAA determines
that the project will impact the National Airspace System
it will issue a Determination of Presumed Hazard. Located in Zone
D and a project be erected that is 70 feet tall and becomes a hazard.
For example, while the building height criteria for Zone D in both the
ALUCP and the DEIR require "airspace review for objects greater
than 70 feet tall.
Western Pacific, etc. Approximately 5,600 proposed residential units
would be lost from the restrictions on new residential
development in Compatibility Use Zone B, C, and D.

The meeting was brought to order at 12:02 PM by Chair Buzz Gibbs. A
quorum was present. The Sunroad 12 story Office Building project for
“Substantial Conformance Review” was postponed to a future meeting at
the request of the applicant. This project will be presented at the
next Land Use Subcommittee meeting on May 11th. The Montgomery Field
“Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan” (ALUCP) was presented by Terry
Price, representing the City of San Diego Airports Division. This again
was an information only item. Mr. Price presented the ALUCP even though
the City did not create this plan. The SDCRAA was not able to attend to
present it. The ALUCP creates different use zones that take into
consideration noise, overflights and accident potential so that
underlying land uses are compatible with the airport. Included in
specific areas are building restrictions, occupancy restrictions, uses
and heights. The complete plan is available on the SDCRAA web page found
at sdcraa.org

Numerous comments have
been received in writing or offered at public meetings asking questions or
making requests for modifications to the plan...
Of all the issues that
have been raised regarding the March 2006 Draft ALUCP, one of the most
extensively debated has been the definition of "existing land use."
"The definition below was first discussed at a meeting of the Subcommittee on
the Definition of Existing Land Use on
November 21, 2005.
The ATAG Existing Land Use Subcommittee was comprised of
the following individuals [6 of 11 (55 percent) are associated with Sunroad]:
John Ponder of Sheppard, Mullin. -
Sunroad lawyer and Sunroad Registered Lobbyist.
Daryl Mutton of Sheppard, Mullin. -

FLOOR-AREA RATIO (FAR)
The area of the
Sunroad lot is 1.47 Acres or 64,033.2 square feet.
The plans show a
total of 306,000 square feet for the building.
Floor-Area-Ratio
(FAR) = 306,000 square feet / 64,033.2 square feet = 4.78.
According to the
Municipal Code, the FAR for Kearny Mesa is 0.5.
(4.78) /
(0.5) = 9.56 times or 956 percent over the Municipal Code for the
FAR.
In addition to changes needed to conform to the building permit, the
Floor-Area ratio for Kearny Mesa in the Municipal Code of 0.50. It has
been 0.5 since 1992. Also in the EIR for the New Century Center
Master Plan, the overall Floor Area Ratio for the whole of the New
Century Center redevelopment is 0.32 to 0.42. Of course, there is also
the height limit of three stories for the retail area in the New Century
Center Master Plan which was revised in 2002.
|
|
Since 1992, the
Floor-Area Ratio (FAR) for all of Kearny Mesa is 0.50. In the 1997
EIR for the New Century Center Master Plan, the overall FAR for the
whole of the New Century Center redevelopment is 0.32 to 0.42.
Planning Area 1A (Retail/Entertainment – 3 Story height limit) was
changed from Zone CA to Zone CC-1-3 when the Municipal Code was revised
in 2000. Before and after the revision, the FAR was always, and still
is, 0.50 for Kearny Mesa. The height limit for Planning Area 1A is
still 3 stories. The height limit for Zone CC-1-3 is 45 feet.
The area of the Sunroad lot is
1.47 Acres or 64,033.2 square feet. Under the EIR and the Municipal
Code, the maximum area of the building should be 26,894 and 32,017
square feet, respectively. The plans show a total of 306,000 square feet
for the building (not counting the Phantom Floor or the
Penthouse/Utility Room). The Sunroad building’s Floor-Area-Ratio (FAR)
= 306,000 square feet / 64,033.2 square feet = 4.78. According to the
approved plans, the Sunroad building is currently (4.78) / (0.5) = 9.56
times or 956 percent over the Municipal Code for the FAR. Plus, Sunroad
thinks they do not have to count the gross floor area of the two,
mid-rise parking structures for the New Century Center Master Plan.
According to the EIR, Master Plan, and Municipal Code they do have to
count the gross floor area of the parking structure towards the
aggregate square footage for whole New Century Center project. Between
the FAR, the height limit, the Phantom floor, and the Penthouse/Utility
room, four separate violations of the Municipal Code exist. This is not
an accident; it is intentional collusion between Mayor Sanders’
administration and Sunroad. And it is not over. |

square feet per floor minus area of 4,497.5 square feet =
= 28,320.5 Total Square Feet. 75 x 77 = 5775 Minus 36.5 x 35 = 1,277.5 = 5775 - 1,277.5 = 4,497.5 28,320.5 square feet per floor x 12
floors = 339,846 square feet in the Building Envelope.
The plans were missing several
floors, so this information is not verified. After a site visit, it looks
like the maps we observed were confusing to read. The floor area is
approximately 306,000.
The Building Permit is for 306,000
square feet for 12 floors = 306,000 square feet / 12 floors = 25,500 square feet

SOLUTION TO
TOP 20 FEET.
From the bottom of the 12th
floor to the top of the building is 28.06 feet, and the total height of
the building is 179.31 feet.
Therefore, in order to meet the 160 height level the following needs to
take place:
The penthouse/utility room and the architectural details on the top of
the roof needs to be removed. Both the penthouse/utility room and the
architectural details are 10.73 feet high. According to the Municipal
Code, the penthouse/utility room and the associated Floor Area are
considered a floor. Removing the penthouse/utility room and the
architectural details alone would put the building within 8.58 of the
goal of 160 feet high (179.31 - 10.73 = 168.58).
The 12th Floor is 17.33 feet high. According to the Municipal Code, at
15 feet of the 17.33 feet, a Phantom Floor and its associated floor area
have to be added to the total. If the roof of the 12th floor is
removed and repositioned to a height of 8.33 feet, then the 160 foot
maximum height would be achieved.
By following the Municipal Code, the Sunroad building is currently 14
stories and over 10 percent over the permitted floor area of 306,000.
Therefore, only the roof of the 12th floor (and all
utility/architectural feature on the roof) needs to be removed and
replace to make the 12th floor a height of 8.33 feet. Doing this work
will also make the building only 12 stories high instead of 14 stories,
and will bring the building back into conformance with the 306,000
square feet allowed by the building permit.

Building envelope
means the three-dimensional space within which a structure could be
located as established by the applicable setbacks and maximum allowable
structure height. See Section 113.0213 for additional information on
determining a building envelope.
Floor means a
horizontal, continuous, supporting, or nonsupporting surface of a structure.
Floor Area Ratio
(FAR) means the numerical value obtained by dividing the gross floor
area of all buildings on a premises by the total area of the
premises on which the buildings are located.
Gross floor area
means the sum of the horizontal square footage of all existing, proposed, and
phantom floors of a building which may or may not be completely enclosed
within the exterior surface of the surrounding exterior walls. See Section
113.0234 for additional information on calculating gross floor area.
Lot coverage
means that portion of a lot that is occupied by buildings or
structures that are roofed or otherwise covered or that are unroofed and
have a finished floor that extends more than 3 feet above grade.
Lot coverage is expressed as a percentage. See Section 113.0240 for
additional information on calculating lot coverage.
Lowest floor
means the lowest floor of the lowest enclosed area. An unfinished or
flood-resistant enclosure that is usable solely for parking vehicles,
building access, or storage is not considered a building’s lowest floor.
Roof deck means
an enclosed or partially enclosed area, with or without an overhead structure,
cover, or roof, that is located on a flat or relatively flat roof of a building.
Any walled area erected exclusively to screen mechanical equipment is not
a roof deck.
Roof eave means
the lowest part of a roof that overhangs the wall below and from which rain
would drain.
Roof line means
the top edge of a roof or the top of the parapet, whichever is the higher
elevation.
Story means the
area between grade and finished floor, the area between finish-floor
elevations or the area between the finish-floor elevation and the
roof elevation. See Section 113.0261 for additional information on measuring
story.

Sunroad Centrum
Another Swinerton project, Sunroad Centrum, is a 12-story structural steel,
glass and stone skin system with architectural metal features on the building.
The class-A office building has one level of underground parking and an adjacent
six-story parking structure. When completed next June, the building will have
306,000 square feet of
leaseable office space. One of
the advantages Swinerton has in this $45 million project is the relationship
with the architect and the owner. Swinerton also built the four-building Sunroad
Corporate office complex in San Diego for Sunroad along with architect Brian
Paul and Associates Inc. “We really fit hand-in-glove when it comes to
coordination issues,” Adair says. “We know very well the owner expectations and
what the architect expects us to bring to the table. They know we can prepare
accurate budgets and schedules early in the design process based on our
experiences together. Our past projects have been very successful, so why break
up the continuity of a good team?” After regularly working with Brian Paul,
Swinerton has learned to expect anything and everything in the architectural
design of this architect’s buildings. “One thing we always know with a Brian
Paul building is that there will be some critical interfaces between the
finishes on the exterior of the buildings,” Adair says |

Sunroad
Enterprises will
begin construction in October on a
1-million-square-foot,
three-building Class A office park on the former General
Dynamics site in Kearny Mesa.
Sunroad Centrum
will be on a 40-acre parcel within the 244-acre San Diego Spectrum
business and residential community. It will include a retail
component to service office users as well as residents of more than
1,500 new condominiums and apartments that exist or are being built on
adjacent land. "Sunroad Centrum will be the largest and only office
project of its kind in the mid-city area of San Diego," says Rick
Vann, president of the real estate division of Sunroad Enterprises.
"Our goal from the outset has been to meet the demand for high-image
corporate office space." The first phase will offer about 300,000 square
feet of office space in a 12-story reflective glass tower above one
level of subterranean parking. An exercise gym with shower facilities,
high-speed elevators and a 4/1000 parking ratio are among the building's
features. Sunroad Centrum is designed by Brian Paul & Associates.
All three office towers and two free-standing parking structures will
surround a landscaped quad area with water features.
Burnham Real Estate
has been selected as the listing broker, and will be represented by
Mark Wayne, Dan Runyon and Eric Vann. For information call

third phase buildings, with 14 and 16 stories, respectively, have not
been announced, and will follow based on lease up of the previous
buildings. "This project is well timed to meet the growing demand for
Class A space in central San Diego," says Runyon, senior v.p. with
Burnham Real Estate.
