SUMMARY & BACKGROUND

900 Grand Central Avenue WDI Machine Shop

Stage 1&11 Design March 1, 2011

Page 2 of 3

In 2000, an Owner Participation Agreement (OPA) and a Development Agreement (DA) was approved between the City of Glendale (City), the Glendale Redevelopment Agency (Agency) and Walt Disney World Company (Disney) to develop a 125-acre high-tech creative campus including a mix of mediarelated uses, a renovated Grand Central Air Terminal and public infrastructure improvements located within the San Fernando Road Corridor Redevelopment Project Area (the Grand Central Creative Campus or "GC3"). Using a Scope of Development to set standards for development, GC3 will be built according to market demand over 30 years.

PROJECT LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION

The Project is located within the Disney Grand Central Creative Campus (GC3) at 900 and 932 Grand Central Avenue, at the southeast corner of Grand Central Avenue and Flower Street. The Project is adjacent to older, tilt-up concrete warehouse and office buildings on the north and west sides.

The Project will demolish the 932 Grand Central Avenue building, occupy the existing concrete tilt-up building at 900 Grand Central Avenue and add additional square footage to that building to accommodate the proposed WDI Machine Shop. The building will house the machine shop where theme park attractions will be constructed. This includes shops for metal, welding, wood, plastic, paint, hydraulic and electrical. A new parking lot will replace the existing 932 Grand Centra l building. The parking lot will be fenced and new landscaping and irrigation will be provided.

STAGE I & II DESIGN REVIEW

The existing 900 Grand Central building is a standard concrete tilt-up panel bu ilding. The bui lding addition along the Flower Street side (south/east corner) will be constructed with a smooth stucco finish to blend with the existing concrete building . The new building on the west side is a pre-fabricated metal building with the use of textured panels on the lower portion and a standard corrugated metal panel above (Exhibit 1).

The selected colors are Disney's standard "Terra Cotta", "Lite Creme" and "Creme Green". The entire building wi ll be painted Terra Cotta on the lower portion and Lite Creme above. All doors, windows and handrails will be painted Creme Green. The roof screens on the existing 900 Grand Central Building will be painted Lite Creme.

A 7'-0" tall chain link fence with a green screen wi ll be constructed along the perimeter of the parking lot. Near the entry gate, a new CMU wall will be constructed and finished with a smooth stucco finish on both sides. Trees and other landscape items will be planted in the area between the sidewalk and the building. All new exteri or lighting is specified to be LED and in dark bronze finish.

The Project is a simple one-story building , finished in a restrained palate of materials. The scale, setbacks, finishes and colors of the structure are within the parameters established by Disney's Development Agreement and similar structures on the Disney campus. The Project will enhance existing setbacks and landscape, and will provide an obvious front door to what is currently an unadorned industrial warehouse with no street presence. The Project is supported without conditions or comments.

A design analysis reviewed by the Principal Urban Designer is attached as Exhibit 2 to this report.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW

900 Grand Central Avenue WDI Machine Shop

Stage 1&11 Design March 1, 2011

Page 3 of 3

The Proposed Project is consistent with the original plans and Project Description analyzed in the GC3 Project Environmental Impact Report (GC3 EIR) certified and approved in 2000. The GC3 EIR thoroughly evaluated the potentially significant environmental project impacts consistent with the Californ ia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

The GC3 EIR was drafted consistent with the Agency's own environmental analysis for the San Fernando Road Corridor Project Area EIR drafted in 1992. Many of the same impacts related to the GC3 Project such as air quality, water quality, noise, transportation I circulation and public services were analyzed in both the Project Area EIR, but in greater and more project-specific detail in the GC3 EIR. In addition, the benefits of the Project as part of redevelopment project area were identified , including: blight elimination, facilitating the installation of needed public infrastructure, utilities, streets and landscaping (paid by Project tax increment), encouraging new private sector investment and facilitating the retention and expansion of businesses in the area.

The background conditions were thoroughly evaluated in the EIR. These background cond itions included major mobility and safety improvements now nearing completion at SR-134 or 1-5 and other projects like the second phase of DreamWorks. In addition to these projects, general growth of approximately one percent a year to background traffic was assumed in the GC3 Er R. Since the approval of GC3 ErR was approved, there has been little to no other impact generating projects beyond the existing already analyzed as part of the background conditions. In fact, traffic levels now are lower than what was anticipated in the GC3 ErR.

There have been no significant changes to the local background conditions. Accordingly, no additional CEQA review is required for the subject Project.

PUBLIC NOTICE

The Code requires publication of public noti ces when the Council/Agency is to consider approval of entitlements such as an MND and design review. Staff has published all required notices in the Glendale News Press and has mailed copies of the notices to all property owners within the 500' of the project. In addition, notice of the hearing was mailed to approximately 250 individuals who have expressed interest in Agency activities. A public notice has also been posted on-site.

FISCAL IMPACT

This Project will generate direct and indirect revenue to the City and the Redevelopment Agency.

Re: Agency Stage 1&11 Design Review for WDI Machine Shop (900 Grand Central Avenue)

Exhibit 2

The following is an evaluation of the above project based on drawings prepared by Shlemmer+Algaze+Associates, February 15, 2011. Summary comments are provided al the end of this memo.

Project Description

The Project is located within the Disney Grand Central Creative Campus (GC3) at 900 and 932 Grand Central Avenue, at the southeast corner of Grand Central Avenue and Flower Street. The Project is adjacent to older, tilt-up concrete warehouse and office buildings on the north and west sides, and GWP's Grayson Power Plant 10 the south.

The Project will demolish the 932 Grand Central Avenue building, occupy the existing concrete tilt-up building at 900 Grand Central Avenue and add additional square footage to that building to accommodate the proposed WDI Machine Shop. The building will house the machine shop where theme park attractions will be prototyped. This includes shops for metal, welding, wood, plastic, paint, hydraulic and electrical. The building will 101a156, 114 square feet.

Project Design I Design Review Analysis

Existing Buildings, Adaptive Reuse, andlor Historic Preservation

• Existing Bui/dings - The proposal is an addition to the existing 900 Grand Central Avenue building, a one-story concrete tilt-up warehouse. The existing building located at 932 Grand Central will be demolished.

Overall Site Plan

• Site Plan - The Project will construct a 20,854 square feel addition existing building. A new parking will be located where the existing 932 Grand Central building is currently standing, west of the proposed addition. The parking 101 will be fenced and new landscaping will be provided.

• Setbacks - Per Disney's Scope of Development, the Project has an average required setback of 10' throughout the site.

• Open Space - The Project will provide a small entry garden at the building's new fronl door. Chilean Mesquite and Pepperminl trees are proposed for the area as well as shrubs and vines. A secondary and private garden for the WDI Shop employees will be located behind a 7' tall smooth stucco finished wall adjacent to the parking lot.

• Landscape - New landscaping will be provided around the perimeter of the parking area and building on both Flower Street and Grand Central Avenue. This area will be planted Canary Island Pine and Chinese Pistachio trees, shrubs, and ground cover. The existing trees along these two streets will be reused. The existing lawn and other plants will be replaced.

Mass and Scale

Agency Stage 1&11 Design Review WDI Machine Shop {gOO Grand Central Avenue}

March 1, 2011 Page2of2

• Height and Massing - The proposal is essentially two adjacent one-story box-shaped warehouses. The existing building is 24'-4" at the highest point. New roof screens will hide the HVAC equipment on the roof, raising the perceived height to approximately 31'. The parapet of the new building will align these roof screens on the existing building. The Project is well below the maximum height of 175' permitted under Disney's Scope of Development for this site.

• Frontage and Facade Design - The existing tilt-up building has few windows and no architectural detail and an ambiguous unclear front entry. The addition will establish a modest facade fronting Grand Central Avenue and a small entrance garden. There are two entrances to the building, one from the existing building which consists of a glass door, and the other from the new addition. However, the entrance from the new addition will be the main entrance for the entire Project and is pronounced with the Creme Green finish. Windows will also be added to the addition facing Grand Central Avenue and the parking lot.

Building Design and Detailing

• Materials and Colors - The existing building is standard concrete tilt-up panel building. A small addition on the Flower side (south/east comer) will "square out" the tilt-up building with a smooth stucco finish to blend with the existing concrete building. The larger addition on the west side is a pre-fabricated metal structure of textured panels on the lower third portion and a standard corrugated metal panel above. Both the existing building and addition will be painted in Disney's standard colors: "Terra Cotta", "Lite Creme" and "Creme Green". The building will be painted Terra Cotta below the lower third portion and Lite Creme above. The roof screens on the existing 900 Grand Central Avenue building will also be painted Lite Creme. All doors, windows and handrails will be highlighted in Creme Green.

The parking area will be screened with a 7' tall chain link fence with green mesh. Near the entry gate, a new CMU wall with a Terra Cotta colored smooth stucco finish will be constructed. Trees, shrubs and ground cover will be planted in the area between the sidewalk and the building.

• Lighting - The site plan provides the locations and details of simple wall mounted sconces, wall mounted area light fixtures, and parking lot lights. All new exterior lighting is specified to be LED and in dark bronze finish.

• Signs - There is no proposed sign for the project other than the address located above the entrance of the new building.

• Public Art - Disney's existing Development Agreement with the Agency exempts the Project from the public art ordinance.

Summary Comments, Recommendations and Draft Record of Decision

The Project is a simple one-story building, finished in a restrained palate of materials. The scale, setbacks, finishes and colors of the structure are within the parameters established by Disney's Development Agreement and similar structures on the Disney campus. The Project will enhance existing setbacks and landscape, and will provide an obvious front door to what is currenlly an unadorned industrial warehouse with no street presence. The Project is supported wittiout conditions or comments.
