BACKGROUND:
On March 5, 2014 the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing regarding a
request to operate an indoor basketball and volleyball facility. At the time of the hearing,
the applicant requested that the item be continued in order to continue working with the
adjoining business owners regarding their concerns of any potential noise and traffic. The
Commission agreed to continue the item to the April 2, 2014 meeting.
Subsequently, the applicant met with surrounding business owners and agreed to modify
certain operational activities and to minimize any potential disruptions that may be caused
by the arrival of league players and ending of practice games time schedules. There was
concern from neighboring businesses, whose workday ends at 5:00 p.m., that the 5:00
p.m. practice time could potentially conflict with existing traffic from employees leaving the
business park. The applicant revised the practice schedule so that the second practice
session will begin at 4:30 and prevent an overlap between vehicles entering the center for
practice and employees leaving at the end of the workday which is 5:00 p.m.
ANALYSIS:
Tim Osgood, General Manager of Athletes in Motion 4 Life ("the applicant"), filed an
application for Conditional Use Permit 14-1 to allow an indoor recreational facility
(basketball/volleyball center) at 1718 Apollo Court. The subject site is a 186,393 sq. ft.
parcel located within Planning Area 2 of the Boeing Integrated Defense Systems (BIDS)
Specific Plan. The subject site is developed with two tenant spaces totaling 76,306 sq. ft.,
and provides 162 parking spaces. The property is surrounded by light industrial buildings
that are occupied with light manufacturing, warehouse and office uses to the north, south,
east and west.
The applicant has stated the proposed basketball and volleyball center will operate
primarily as a practice and training facility for local youth athletes and teams. AIM has
proposed team practices and a limited number of private training sessions as part of its
weekday operations. On weekends, the facility will be made available for local league
tournament games. Additionally, the applicant proposes to coordinate with the Los
Alamitos School District, the St. Hedwig Catholic School, and the City's Community
Services/Recreation Department for activity use.
The BIDS Specific Plan area permits gymnasiums and sirnilar facilities in Planning Areas 2
and 3 with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The concept for the BIDS Specific
Plan Land Use Plan was the development of a planned mixed use business park. The
BIDS area is developed with a mix of light industrial with office and commercial uses along
the northeasterly area. The applicant proposes to utilize the existing 26,924 sq. ft. tenant
space on the subject site for a proposed youth basketball and volleyball center. The
applicant proposes to utilize a majority of the space, 24, 541 sq. ft., for an open gym floor
that will be striped to create six volleyball courts and four basketball courts. The hours of
operation are from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 7:00 a.m. to 10:00
p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Generally, team practices will start at 2:30 p.m. with the last
practice commencing at 8:30 p.m.
Typically, youth basketball season starts around fall and ends in winter. Then volleyball
season commences through early summer.When volleyball season starts, volleyball court
striping occurs over the basketball court striping so the courts will be used within the same
space. The remaining 2,383 sq. ft. will be used for offices and with a designated area of
Conditional Use Permit 14-1
1718 Apollo Court
April 2, 2014
Page 4 of 7
1,365 sq. ft. for private training and lessons. The applicant will add striping to create an
additional 29 parking spaces in the rear portion of the parking lot resulting in a total parking
of 191 spaces to serve the project site.
The facility will employ three full time staff members to monitor daily operations which will
consist of a fixed schedule of team practices and private lessons with periodic league
tournament games on weekends. During weekday operations, the facility will provide one
hour private training and conditioning which consists of a coach working directly with three
players using foam rollers, mats, and medicine balls in the designated training room near
the office area. Weekly team practices will be scheduled in two hour sessions within the
open gym area.
The Seal Beach Municipal Code requires recreation facilities over 20,000 sq.ft. to provide
one parking space per 300 sq. ft. of gross floor area, which requires a minimum of 90
parking spaces. A parking demand analysis was completed by Linscott, Law&Greenspan
on January 31, 2014 and submitted to the City as part of the Conditional Use Permit
application. The study analyzed the parking demand that will be generated by the use. The
table below identifies the proposed weekday activities and projected attendance for the
basketball and volleyball center.

Table 1 above shows weekday volleyball practices will consist of 6 teams, each utilizing
one court. Practices will consist of 2 hour sessions and start at 2:30 p.m. with players
arriving around 2:00-2:15 p.m. For the purpose of the parking analysis if all courts were
being used for practice sessions and each team had six spectators the total number of
volleyball practice attendees is projected to be 108 persons.AIM will have 3 staff members
on site at all times resulting in a total attendance of 111 persons. Private training will be
limited to two coaches, working with three students each, for a total of 8 attendees. The
private sessions will occur concurrently with the team practices.At worst case scenario,the
weekday attendance of team practices and private training is projected to be 119 persons.

Parking Demand
Linscott, Law&Greenspan prepared a Parking Demand Analysis Addendum, dated March
17, 2014, to evaluate the project's weekday parking requirements based on the revised
practice schedule. The addendum concluded that the findings of the original Parking
Demand Analysis for the Proposed AIM Sportsplex, prepared by LLG, dated January 31,
2014 demonstrated no parking impacts and sufficient on-site parking spaces will
accommodate the proposed use.
The Parking Analysis evaluated the highest peak demand for the total number of persons
using the facility and parking spaces. Parking spaces required to support the sport activities
was based upon the operating time schedules, number of participants, number of
spectators and average vehicle ridership (AVR). Additionally, the highest demand for
parking was determined when league games are played during the weekends.
Weekday
During the weekday, basketball season includes the use of all four courts with nine players,
two coaches and six spectators on each court, plus 2 coaches with 6 players for private
practice and 3 on-site AIM staff members totaling 79 persons.Volleyball practices generate
the most attendance, occupying all six courts, and represent the highest demand for
parking. The analysis was based upon evaluating similar facilities in Orange County and
determined up to 119 players, coaches/instructors, spectators, personal training and staff
were projected at the peak demand during volleyball season. The addendum identified the
project's peak demand for use of the facility is at the start of the evening practices around
4:15 p.m. At this time period, a total of 89 parking spaces will be occupied and the subject
site will provide 93 striped parking spaces.
Weekend
During the weekend, Table 2 shows basketball league games highest demand for parking
is 85 spaces from 7:45 am. to 10:00 p.m. During this period, up to 176 players,
coaches/instructors, referees, spectators, and staff will be on-site.
Conditional Use Permit 14-1
1718 Apollo Court
April 2, 2014
Page 6of7
According to the parking analysis, volleyball league games will generate the highest
attendance which is 184 persons and require 86 parking spaces. As shown in Table 2, the
attendance includes players, coaches, instructors, referees, spectators and staff. Under the
scenario analyzed, four courts are used for league games and the remaining two courts are
used for warm-ups and stretching. Proposed Resolution 14-2 includes a condition that
limits the use of only four volleyball courts for league games.
Written Communication
Staff received written correspondence from Diversified Technical Systems (DTS), the
business sharing the building with the proposed basketball and volleyball facility. The letter
expressed parking, noise, site maintenance and safety concerns. Staff also received
written correspondence from TYR and MAGTEK, these companies are located on the
properties to the east and west of the project site. These letters echoed concerns over
noise, parking and site maintenance, and identified concerns over traffic, use compatibility
and -trespassing.
The subject building is currently separated by a full height wall. In order to address DTS
concerns with noise, the Applicant agreed to conduct an acoustical analysis to ensure the
adjacent tenant is not disturbed by the activity within the proposed basketball and volleyball
center. Additionally, the applicant will construct a new wall that will provide sound-proofing
measures as directed by an acoustical engineer. The acoustical analysis and proposed
wall construction will be evaluated as part of the building plan check review process.As an
added measure, the finished wall will include thick foam padding LIP to 8 feet measured
from the finished floor to further attenuate noise and any vibration.
Staff has conditioned that at least two trash receptacles be placed at the front entrance of
the office area and just outside of the facility to minimize litter and assist in site
maintenance. Staff has conditioned, and the applicant has agreed, to maintain the existing
roll-up door on the west elevation closed from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Monday through
Friday to minimize noise. In addition, staff has added a condition to re-emphasize the
existing Zoning Code requirement that all business activity take place completely within the
building. The applicant has been advised that no activity is permitted outside of the
proposed tenant space and violation of this code would cause the Planning Commission to
reevaluate the Conditional Use Permit.
The Parking Demand Analysis and Addendum have shown that the parking on site
exceeds the amount of parking required by the proposed activities.To ensure patrons park
on the project site staff has conditioned, and AIM has agreed, to have a parking monitor
outside during all weekend tournaments to ensure vehicles park in designated areas. In
addition,AIM has agreed to provide a parking monitor twenty minutes before practice start
times during weekday operations at the start of the business and as needed when new
teams begin use of the facility.AIM has revised the weekday practice schedule to alleviate
concerns of potential overlap between AIM patrons entering the business park as
surrounding business employees exit the business park,
The Seal Beach Police Department reviewed the request for a basketball and volleyball
facility and determined no additional security or surveillance was required beyond the
conditions listed below:
• The applicant must provide adequate exterior lighting to help provide a safe
environment for patrons coming and going, to and from, the location's parking lot.
Conditional Use Permit 14-1
1718 Apollo Court

• Applicant shall have their staff routinely patrol the parking lot and discourage groups
loitering in the parking lot before and after events.
CONCLUSION:
According to the Parking Demand Analysis, adequate parking will be available to
accommodate the sport activities based upon the peak demand for weekday and weekend
use. The Parking Demand Analysis Addendum shows the peak hour will be 4:15 p.m.,
which reduces potential overlap between AIM patrons entering the business park and
surrounding business employees exiting the business park.
After conducting the public hearing and receiving public testimony, staff recommends that
the Planning Commission adopt the attached Resolution No. 14-2 approving CUP 14-1 to
permit an indoor recreational facility (basketball/volleyball center) at 1718 Apollo Court.

THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH DOES
HEREBY FIND AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. On February 4, 2014, Tim Osgood, General Manager of Athletes In
Motion 4 Life ("the applicant"), submitted an application to the City of Seal Beach
Department of Community Development for Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 14-1 to
permit a basketball and volleyball center, which is located in the Boeing Integrated
Defense Systems (BIDS) Specific Plan Area.
Section 2. Pursuant to the State of California Public Resources Code and
State Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the Community
Development Department has determined that the proposed project is exempt from
environmental review per Sections 15060(c)(2), 15061(b)(3), and 16332 of the State
CEQA Guidelines.
Section 3. A duly noticed public hearing was held before the Planning
Commission on March 5 and April 2, 2014 to consider the application for CUP 14-1. At
the March 5, 2014 hearing the Planning Commission received public testimony and
granted the request from the applicant to continue the item to the April 2, 2014 meeting
to allow additional time to meet with the adjoining business owners. At the April 2, 2014
public hearing, the Planning Commission received and considered all evidence
presented, both written and oral, regarding the subject application. The record of the
public hearing indicates the following:
A. The subject site consists of a 26,924 sq. ft. industrial building
separated into two tenant spaces. One tenant space is occupied by a corporate office
and manufacturing facility the remaining tenant space will be occupied by the applicant.
The building is located on the south side of Apollo Court, west of Apollo Drive and is
addressed 1718 Apollo Court. The building is surrounded by light manufacturing uses
on all sides. The subject property is located in Planning Area 2 of the BIDS Specific
Plan Area which permits a gymnasium and similar sports facility uses with the approval
of a Conditional Use Permit.
B. The applicant proposed interior tenant improvements to convert
24,541 sq. ft, of existing floor space into a basketball and volleyball center which will
allow for either six (6) volleyball or four (4) basketball courts and 2,383 sq. ft. for office

and conditioning training space. The business will operate from 8:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M.,
Monday through Friday, and 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. Saturday and Sunday.
C. A Parking Analysis, dated January 31 and March 17, 2014, was
prepared by Linscott, Law, and Greenspan (LLG) to analyze the peak demand of the
proposed basketball and volleyball center operations. The parking analysis concluded
that the project site can accommodate the anticipated parking demand, with the
recommendation that only four volleyball courts are utilized simultaneously during peak
operation when league games are scheduled. The Parking Analysis evaluated a 1.5
hour weekday team practice schedule. A Parking Analysis Addendum, dated March 17,
2014, was prepared by LLG to analyze the revised 2 hour weekday team practice
schedule. The Parking Analysis Addendum found the 93 parking spaces allocated for
the project can accommodate the peak demand of 89 parking spaces.
D. An Acoustical Evaluation, dated March 25, 2014, was prepared by
Colia Acoustical Consultants to evaluate the sound generated by the recreation facility
and recommend appropriate noise reduction measures. The acoustical evaluation
provided two options for noise reduction. The recommendation to install a new
independent noise reduction wall, "Option 2," provided the greatest noise reduction and
will be implemented by the applicant.
Section 4. Based upon the facts contained in the record, including those
stated in the preceding Section of this resolution and pursuant to Chapter 11.5.20 of the
Code of the City of Seal Beach, the Planning Commission makes the following findings:
A. The General Plan Land Use Map designates the subject property
as Industrial — Light. The Land Use Element of the General Plan identifies the
development of a business park, combined with hotel and commercial uses as the goal
for the BIDS Specific Plan area. The concept for the BIDS Specific Plan Land Use Plan
was the development of a planned mixed use business park. The BIDS area is
developed with a mix of light industrial with office and commercial uses along the
northeasterly area. The BIDS Specific Plan identifies a mix of uses permitted and
conditionally permitted throughout the four planning areas, including warehousing,
manufacturing, research and development, restaurants and gymnasiums. The proposed
basketball and volleyball center will add to the mix of uses within the Specific Plan area.
B. The proposed use is allowed within the applicable zoning district
with use permit approval and complies with all other applicable provisions of the
Municipal Code. The subject site is located within Planning Area 2 of the BIDS Specific
Plan, which permits ice skating, ice hockey, gymnasium and similar sports related
facilities with approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The BIDS Specific Plan area was
developed as a planned mixed used business park with light manufacturing, warehouse
and office uses throughout Planning Areas 1, 2 and 3. The proposed basketball and
volleyball center is consistent with the planned mix of uses identified in Table 5-1 of the
BIDS Specific Plan.
-2 of 7-
Resolution 14-2
1718 Apollo Court
C. The proposed use, as conditioned below, will be located on a site
that is physically adequate for the type, density, and intensity of use being proposed,
including provision of services, and the absence of physical constraints. The Seal
Beach Municipal Code requires a ratio of 1 parking space per 300 sq. ft. of gross floor
area for commercial recreation uses, which results in a minimum requirement of 90
spaces for the proposed use. The subject site is developed with a light industrial
building, consisting of two tenant spaces, surrounded by a parking area with 162 stalls.
As part of this project, the applicant will stripe the parking area to create an additional
29 spaces near the existing loading dock on the south portion of the lot. The parking lot
will then have a total of 191 parking spaces, 98 of which will serve the adjacent tenant
and 93 of which will be allocated for the basketball and volleyball center. The parking
analysis conducted by Linscott, Law, and Greenspan identifies the peak demand for the
proposed use to be 89 parking spaces, less than the number of spaces provided,
D. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the
proposed use, as conditioned below, will be compatible with and will not adversely
affect uses and properties in the surrounding businesses. The subject site is located in
the BIDS Specific Plan Area, which was intended to operate as a planned mixed use
business park. Tenant improvements are proposed for 'the interior of the tenant space
and no additions are proposed on the exterior of the building. The facility will primarily
operate as an indoor practice facility for youth sports teams and leagues with periodic
league tournament events. The proposed operating hours are from 8:00 A.M. to 10:00
P.M., Monday through Friday, and 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. Saturday and Sunday. The
weekday team practice schedules will be set at 2 hour intervals while private training
sessions will be scheduled on an hourly basis. The weekday team practice schedule will
prevent an overlap between AIM patrons entering the business park and surrounding
business employees exiting the business park at the end of the workday, approximately
5:00 p.m. for most businesses. An acoustical engineer has conducted an acoustical
evaluation and provided noise reduction recommendations to ensure the adjacent
tenant is not disturbed by the activity within the proposed basketball and volleyball
center. The applicant will provide a noise reduction wall as directed by the acoustical
engineer, shown as "Option 2" in the Acoustical Evaluation. The Parking Analysis
Addendum, dated March 17, 2014, conducted by Linscott, Law, and Greenspan
identified the peak weekday parking demand to be 89 spaces at 4:15 p.m. The parking
analysis showed the 93 parking spaces allocated to the basketball and volleyball center
exceed the parking demand of-the facility.
E. The establishment, maintenance, and operation of the proposed
basketball and volleyball center use, as conditioned below, will not be detrimental to the
health, safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The proposed
use is an indoor recreation facility; all activity will be conducted within the tenant space.
The activities will be conducted on a fixed weekday schedule with periodic league
tournaments on weekends. An acoustical engineer has conducted an acoustical
evaluation to determine the noise reduction measures required to ensure the adjacent
tenant will not be disturbed by activities within the basketball and volleyball center. The
applicant will be required to place trash receptacles at the facility's entrances and make

Dear Mr. Osgood: Pasadena
Irvine
As requested, Linscott, Law, & Greenspan, Engineers (LLG) is pleased to submit this San Diego
Parking Demand Analysis for the proposed AIM Sportsplex project to be located at Woodland hills
1718 Apollo Court in the City of Seal Beach, California. The proposed AIM
Sportsplex Project includes the conversion of a 26,924 square-foot (SF)
industrial/warehouse type building, into a combination basketball/volleyball center
with either four (4) basketball courts or six (6) volleyball courts and a proposed on-
site parking supply of 93 parking spaces.
This parking demand analysis evaluates the Project's parking requirements based on
the AIM Sportsplex forecast of operational characteristics for a typical weekday
condition and typical weekend condition for either basketball or volleyball, which
will consist of practices and lessons during the week and multiple games scheduled
throughout the day on weekends. Our method of analysis, findings, and conclusions
are described in detail in the following sections of this report.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
The proposed AIM Sportsplex project (hereinafter referred to as Project) site is to be
located at 1718 Apollo Court in the City of Seal Beach, California. Figure 1,
attached, presents a Vicinity Map, which illustrates the general location of the project
and depicts the surrounding street system.

Access to the project site will be provided via existing driveways on Apollo Court. It
is noted that the remaining 49,382 SF of floor area, which is located at 1720 Apollo
Court, is occupied by Diversified Technology Systems, Inc. Parking for the entire site
is provided via a total of 191 on-site surface parking spaces, of which 93 spaces are
allocated to the proposed AIM Sportsplex.
Figure 2 presents the Existing Aerial Site, which shows the Project site whereas,
Figure 3 presents the Proposed Site Plan, which shows the locations of the sport
courts and ancillary uses within the building as well as the proposed parking lot
layout for the on-site spaces.
AIM Sportsplex proposes the basketball/volleyball activity to include youth league
games, youth club team practices and private lessons, which will also be accessible to
the Seal Beach Parks and Recreation Department and Los Alamitos Parks and
Recreation Department, as well as local elementary, middle and high schools.
The weekday basketball/volleyball operations will essentially be identical, with the
same practice and private lessons schedule/attendance while the weekend basketball
league games and the weekend volleyball league games will be slightly different due
to longer game durations. Basketball club teams generally have 9 players under the
guidance of two coaches, who may also coach multiple teams, and Volleyball club
teams generally have 10 players under the guidance of two coaches.
AIM Sportsplex anticipated hours of operation will be Monday-Friday 8:00 AM —
10:00 PM, with minimal usage between 8:00 AM — 4:00 PM when schools are in
session, and Saturday and Sunday from 7:00 AM — 10:00 PM. It is anticipated that
weekday morning and early afternoon hours may increase, but usage will never
approach the primary hours of operation which is Monday through Friday, between
4:00 PM— 10:00 PM.
Weekday Operations
Practices
During the week, it is anticipated that four (4) basketball or six (6) volleyball courts
will be used several times a week for club team practices (1.5 hours each practice) at
3:30 PM, 5:00 PM, 6:30 PM, and 8:00 PM. Assuming 9 players with two coaches and
six spectators per basketball team on four (4) courts, results in a maximum of 68
persons in attendance for the practice operation during a typical weekday. Assuming
10 players with two coaches and six spectators per volleyball team on six (6) courts,
results in a maximum of 108 persons in attendance for the practice operation during a
typical weekday. It should be noted that this analysis assumes minimal drop-off for
weekday basketball and volleyball practices, which is typically very large, especially
for players older than 10 years.

Private Lessons/Performance Traininja
Also, during the week it is anticipated that the Performance Training Area will be
utilized several times a week for private lessons (1.0 hour each lesson) at 3:30 PM,
4:30 PM, 5:30 PM, 6:30 PM, 7:30 PM and 8:30 PM. Based on the assumption that
two coaches will have access to the Performance Training Area concurrently and
assuming 3 players (typically one or two) per coach will be in attendance results in a
maximum of 8 persons in attendance for the private lesson operation during a typical
weekday.
As a result, during a typical weekday a maximum of 111 persons will be in
attendance at any one time, which consists of 108 persons for practice and 3 staff
members (this reflects a volleyball scenario based on six courts in session at the same
time, which represents the worst-case condition). Furthermore, with the utilization of
the Performance Training Area for private lessons, then a maximum of 119 persons
could be in attendance at any one time.
It should also be noted that the AIM Sportplex will have minimal daytime activity
during weekdays (8:00 AM to 4:00 PM).
Weekend Operations (League Games)
Basketball League Games
On weekends (Saturday & Sunday), youth basketball league games will be held
generally between 8:00 AM and 10:15 PM and, at most, consist of 40 teams (10
divisions of 4 teams each) playing on four (4) courts, with all teams in each division
completing play within 2.5 hours each day. Each team will play a minimum of three
games (two games on Saturday and at least one game on Sunday) with the fourth
game being a championship game. Each game assumes two referees and two teams
with 9 players, two coaches and 9 spectators per team with two simultaneous games
per division in two divisions (all four courts in use at the same time, based on two
courts per division) results in a maximum of 176 persons in attendance, which
includes five (5) officiating members (four scorekeepers and one supervisor) and
three (3) facility employees. Furthermore, for the purposes of creating the parking
demand matrix for this analysis, each division (4 teams with 2 teams per court) will
consist of a maximum of 84 persons, excluding staff, detailed as follows:
❑ (18 players +4 coaches+ 18 spectators+ 2 referees) x 2 courts= 84 persons
Volleyball League Games
On weekends (Saturday & Sunday), youth volleyball league games will be held
generally between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM and, at most, consist of one division of 16
teams (4 pools of 4 teams each) playing games on four (4) courts, with all teams in
each of pool completing play within 6.0 hours each day; the two (2) remaining courts
are used for warm-ups/stretching. Each team will play four games (two games on
Saturday and two games on Sunday). Each game assumes two teams with 10 players,

two coaches and 10 spectators per team with four simultaneous games on four courts,
resulting in a maximum of 184 persons in attendance, which includes eight (8) staff
members (four scorekeepers and one supervisor) and facility staff of three. The
volleyball league games represent the heaviest possible use of the facility.
Furthermore, for the purposes of creating the parking demand matrix for this analysis,
each court (8 teams with 2 teams per court) will consist of a maximum of 176
persons, excluding staff, detailed as follows:
❑ (10 players+2 coaches + 10 spectators)x 2 teams x4 courts= 176 persons
PARKING DEMAND ANALYSIS
The parking analysis for the AIM Sportsplex project involves determining the
expected parking needs, based on the size and type of proposed uses, versus the
parking supply.
For this project, there are typically two methods that can be used to estimate the site's
peak parking demand. These methods include:
1. Application of City Code requirements
2. Application of the Project's operational characteristics information
City Code Parking Calculation
As a benchmark, the number of parking spaces required to support the proposed
Project was calculated using the parking Code requirements outlined in Chapter
11.4.20.015 - Required Off-Street Parking Spaces of the City of Seal Beach Municipal
Code and comparing it to the Project's proposed on-site parking supply allocation of
90 spaces.
Per the City's Municipal Code, the following parking ratio was used to calculate the
parking requirements for the proposed Project:
■ Commercial Recreation (greater than 20,000 SF) — Gyms and Fitness
Studios: one (1) space per 300 SF; Other specific uses to be determined by
Director, which may require a parking demand analysis.
Direct application of the above-referenced parking ratio to the proposed Project results
in a City parking code requirement of 90 spaces. With a proposed on-site parking
allocation of 93 spaces, a parking surplus of 3 spaces is when compared to the City's
parking requirement of 90 spaces for the Project.

Project Operational Parking Demand Forecast
The appropriate method for determining the parking requirements for the Project is
the application of the AIM Sportsplex's operational characteristics information to a
time-of-day matrix in order to determine the peak parking demand on an hourly basis
and valid the adequacy of the Project's parking supply.
To determine the number of parking spaces required to support the AIM Sportsplex
project, parking demand was calculated by studying the proposed schedule of sport
activities, number of participants, number of spectators, and average vehicle ridership
(AVR). The parking demand may vary throughout the weekday and weekend
depending on all of these factors. The peak parking demand forecast for the proposed
AIM Sportsplex was estimated in a manner similar to trip generation using the
expected attendance numbers, daily practice schedules, and basketball/volleyball
league schedules.
Weekday Operations
Table I presents the anticipated AIM Sportsplex weekday operations for a volleyball
scenario with six(6)courts in session plus personal training private lessons, for which
a maximum of 119 players, coaches/instructors, spectators, and staff will be on-site at
one time. Based on a weekday AVR of 2.25, which was determined based on current
observations at a local practice facility, the peak weekday parking demand is 88
parking spaces at 6:15 PM on a typical peak weekday, as shown in Table 1. All
assumptions utilized in determining the hourly parking demand are also presented in
Table 1, inclusive of the use of a "15% drop-off' rate. Based on prior observations at
a local sports facility, and because logically many players are dropped-off for
practice, only one in three entering vehicles remained in the parking lot during
practice and/or lessons, which equates to a "67% drop-off rate". With a proposed on-
site parking supply of 93 parking spaces, a minimum surplus of 5 parking spaces will
be provided and therefore adequate parking will be provided for the proposed AIM
Sportsplex project on a typical peak weekday. Graph 1, attached, presents a graphical
representation of the matrix presented in Table 1.
Weekend Operations (League Games)
Basketball League Games
Table 2 presents the anticipated AIM Sportsplex weekend (basketball league games)
operations, for which a maximum of 176 players, coaches/instructors, referees,
spectators, and staff will be on-site at one time. Based on a weekend AVR of 2.25,
based on vehicle occupancy counts conducted at a similar facility during basketball
league games, the peak weekend parking demand is 85 parking spaces essentially
from 7:45 AM to 10:15 PM on a typical peak weekend day with a basketball league
games scheduled throughout the day, as shown in Table 2. All assumptions utilized in
determining the hourly parking demand are also presented in Table 2. With a

proposed on-site parking supply of 93 parking spaces,a minimum surplus of 8 parking
spaces will be provided and therefore adequate parking will be provided for the
proposed AIM Sportsplex project on a typical peak weekend day with a basketball

presented in Table 2.
Volleyball League Games
Table 3 presents the anticipated AIM Sportsplex weekend (volleyball league games)
operations, for which a maximum of 184 players, coaches/instructors, referees,
spectators, and staff will be on-site at one time. As noted earlier, under weekend
operations, only four (4) of the six (6) courts as utilized concurrently, as the two (2)
remaining courts are used for warm-ups/stretching. Based on a weekend AVR of
2.25, which represents a very conservative ridership, the peak weekend parking
demand is 86 parking spaces essentially from 7:45 AM to 8:30 PM on a typical peak
weekend day with a volleyball league games scheduled throughout the day, as shown
in Table 3. All assumptions utilized in determining the hourly parking demand are
also presented in Table 3. With a proposed on-site parking supply of 93 parking
spaces, a minimum surplus of 7parking spaces will be provided and therefore adequate
parking will be provided for the proposed AIM Sportsplex project on a typical peak
weekend day with a volleyball league games. Graph 3, attached, presents a graphical
representation of the matrix presented in Table 3.
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The AIM Sportsplex project includes the conversion of a 26,924 square-foot (SF)
industrial/warehouse type building, into a combination basketball/volleyball
recreation center with either four(4) basketball courts or six (6) volleyball courts.
Access to the project site will be provided via two existing driveways on Apollo
Court. The parking supply for the Project will be provided by an on-site parking
allocation of 93 spaces.
2. Direct application of the City's parking code requirement of 1 space per 300 SF to
the proposed Project results in a City parking code requirement of 90 spaces. With a
proposed on-site parking allocation of 93 spaces, a parking surplus of 3 spaces is
when compared to the City's parking requirement of 90 spaces for the Project.
3. Peak weekday activity will primarily consist of four youth basketball club
practice sessions on four basketball courts plus private training lessons while the
peak weekend activity will primarily consist of youth league play, which could
include as many as 40 basketball teams utilizing four courts throughout the day
from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
4. For weekday volleyball conditions (worst-case scenario), assuming 10 players
with two coaches and six spectators per team on six courts, results in a maximum
of 108 persons in attendance at practice time plus a maximum of 8 persons in

attendance for private lessons / training plus 3 staff personnel, results in a total
maximum attendance of 119 persons on a typical peak weekday.
5. For weekend basketball league play, each game assumes two referees and two
teams with 9 players, two coaches and 9 spectators per team with two
simultaneous games per division in two divisions (all four courts in use at the
same time, based on two courts per division) results in a maximum of 176 persons
in attendance, which includes five (5) staff members (four scorekeepers and one
supervisor) and three (3) facility staff members. In addition, each division (4
teams with 2 teams per court)will consist of a maximum of 84 persons.
6. For weekend volleyball league games consisting of 16 teams, each game assumes
two teams with 10 players, two coaches and 10 spectators per team with four
simultaneous games on four courts with eight teams (two pools of 4 teams) in
attendance at once, results in a maximum of 184 persons in attendance, which
includes five (5) staff members (four scorekeepers and one supervisor) and three
(3) facility staff members. In addition, each court (8 teams with 2 teams per court)
will consist of a maximum of 176 persons. As noted earlier, under weekend
operations, only four (4) of the six (6) courts as utilized concurrently, as the two
(2)remaining courts are used for warm-ups/stretching.
7. Review of Table 1, and presented graphically in Graph 1, shows that during a
typical peak weekday with a full practice schedule and a weekday AVR of 2.25
and a 15% drop-off rate, the peak weekday parking demand is 88 parking spaces
at 6.15 PM. With a proposed on-site parking supply allocation of 93 parking
spaces, a minimum surplus of 5 parking spaces will be provided and therefore
adequate parking will be provided for the proposed AIM Sportsplex project on a
typical peak weekday.
8. Review of Table 2, and presented graphically in Graph 2, shows that during a
typical peak weekend day with a 40-team basketball league and a conservative
AVR of 2.25, the peak weekend day parking demand is 85 parking spaces
essentially from 7:45 AM to 10:15 PM. With a proposed on-site parking supply
allocation of 93 parking spaces, a minimum surplus of 8 parking spaces will be
provided and therefore adequate parking will be provided for the proposed AIM
Sportsplex project on a typical peak weekend day with basketball league games
scheduled.
9. Review of Table 3, and presented graphically in Graph 3, shows that during a
typical peak weekend day with a 16-team volleyball league scheduled to play
concurrently on four (4) of sic (6) courts and a conservative AVR of 2.25, the
peak weekend day parking demand is 86 parking spaces essentially from 7:45
AM to 9:00 PM. With a proposed on-site parking supply of 93 parking spaces, a
minimum surplus of 7 parking spaces will be provided and therefore adequate

parking will be provided for the proposed AIM Sportsplex on a typical peak
weekend day with volleyball games schedules throughout the day.
10. Based on the results of the parking analysis for the AIM Sportsplex, it is
recommended that only four (4) of the six (6) volleyball courts are utilized
simultaneously during peak operations when volleyball league games are
scheduled to ensure the forecast peak parking demand of the Project is satisfied
by the a proposed on-site allocation of 93 spaces. The remaining two (2)
volleyball courts could be utilized for warms ups / stretching for those teams in
attendance and participating in league games.

Dear Mr. Osgood: Irvine
San Diego
As requested, Linscott, Law, & Greenspan, Engineers (LLG) is pleased to submit this Woodland Hills
Parking Demand Analysis Addendum for the proposed AIM Sportsplex project to be
located at 1718 Apollo Court in the City of Seal Beach, California. The proposed
AIM Sportsplex Project includes the conversion of a 26,924 square-foot (SF)
industrial/warehouse type building, into a combination basketball/volleyball center
with either four (4) basketball courts or six (6) volleyball courts and a proposed on-
site parking supply of 93 parking spaces.
This parking demand analysis addendum evaluates the Project's weekday parking
requirements based on a change in the weekday operations schedule times for the
AIM Sportsplex. Based on our understanding of the revised weekday operations
schedule for both volleyball and basketball club team practices, it is anticipated that
four (4) basketball or six (6) volleyball courts will be used several times a week for
club team practices at 2:30 PM, 4:30 PM, 6:30 PM, and 8:30 PM. Additionally, the
first three practices of each weekday will be 2 hours in duration, with the final
practice of each weekday 1.5 hours in duration. We understand no changes are
proposed for the weekend operations of the Project.
This addendum utilizes the Parking Demand Analysis for the Proposed AIM
Sportsplex, prepared by LLG, dated January 31, 2014 as a reference and a database
for this evaluation. As a result, this addendum does not reiterate existing information/ Philip M Unscatt,PEom m,
materials that are included in the public record for this Project. Jack M.64eenspen,PEAri

"volleyball" practice schedule. Based on a weekday AVR of 2.25, which was
determined based on current observations at a local practice facility, the peak
weekday parking demand forecast totals 89 parking spaces at 4:15 PM on a typical
peak weekday, as shown in Table 1 (revised). All assumptions utilized in determining
the hourly parking demand are also presented in Table 1 (revised), inclusive of the
updated practice schedule. With a proposed on-site parking supply of 93 parking
spaces,a minimum surplus of 4 parking spaces will be provided and therefore adequate
parking will be provided for the proposed AIM Sportsplex project on a typical peak
weekday. Graph I (revised), attached, presents a graphical representation of the matrix
presented in Table I (revised).
Based on the results of this parking demand analysis addendum for the AIM
Sportsplex, it is concluded that the peak parking demand of the Project can be
accommodated by the proposed on-site allocation of 93 spaces. Further, it can be
concluded that the findings and conclusions of Parking Demand Analysis for the
Proposed AIM Sportsplex,prepared by LLG, dated January 31, 2014 remain valid.
We appreciate the opportunity to provide this parking demand analysis addendum.
Should you have any questions,please do not hesitate to call me at(949) 825-6175.
Very truly yours,

Mr. Richard E. Barretto, Principal
Linscott, Law& Greenspan Engineers

Irvine, CA 92614
Dear Mr. Barretto,
Athletes in Motion 4 Life would like to formally revise the weekday
operations practice schedule times for the proposed AIM Sportsplex facility
to be located at 1718 Apollo Court in the City of Seal Beach, California. The
decision to revise our weekday practice start times results from our
consideration of the flow of vehicles to and from our facility in the 30 minute
period prior to practices starting, and the 15 minute period after practices
end. The adjusted practice schedule will benefit the patrons of AIM
Sportsplex from encountering the 5:00pm traffic generated by the
surrounding businesses and it will also preclude AIM's patrons from adding
to the existing traffic within the business park between the hours of 4:45pm-
6:00pm.
Therefore,we request that you please update your information for the
Parking Demand Analysis generated by Linscott, Law&Greenspan and
inform the City of Seal Beach of the revision as it pertains to our submittal
package for the pending Conditional Use Permit. The weekday operation
practices will now commence at 2:30pm, 4:30pm, 6:30pm and 8:30pm.
Additionally, the first three practices of each weekday will be 2 hours in
duration and the final practice of each weekday will 1.5 hours in duration.
Please contact me should you have any questions regarding this information.
Thank you,
Tim Osgood

SUBJECT: Acoustical Evaluation of the AIM Sportsplex Demising Walls at
1720 Apollo Court in Seal Beach, CA
Dear Mr. Paris;
At your request I am providing information for the common walls between
existing commercial unit and the AIM Sportsplex at the above referenced
location.
Existing Walls
The existing wall between the commercial and sports a unit is likely only a
single metal wall. The existing plans indicate a 16 gauge metal wall with R-19
attached. This metal will provide a STC rating (noise reduction) of about 31 and
about 37 with the insulation (See Figure 2).
The new plan for the AIM Sports indicates an area design for volleyball (6)
and/or basketball courts (4). To evaluate the potential noise impact it wall
assumed all court would be in maximum use. Based on past noise studies of a
similar nature a projected impact of 80 dBA was used. Because the Sportsplex
space will have high walls and ceiling, with hard surfaces it will be a
reverberant space. Therefore, 8 dB was added to account for the reverberation
in the space. Thus, the total noise impact in the sportsplex area will be 88 dBA
(which is rounded to 90 dBA for simplicity). This value of 90 dBA will account
for whistles and shouts. No amplified speakers or music is permitted. Add impact
padding to new common wall, 8 to 12 feet in height. Saw cut the concrete floor
stab before installing new wall.
With the 16 ga. metal wall and a STC rating of 31 noise level on the existing
commercial side would be around 59 dBA in potential office areas, In most
cases commercial office areas are designed to have noise levels of 40 to 45 dBA.
Thus, an additional 14 to 20 dB of noise reduction (STC) would be needed.
L14-021
March 25, 2014
Mitigation Measures
Option 1
Place acoustical barrier material on the entire common walls. Attached is an
example from a noise specialty company (Kinetics). Check with the phone
number for the local representative or for other sources of suppliers online
(Google: acoustical barrier materials). These panels can be placed on one wall
side or both, but in your case one side on the sportplex side is probably
enough.
There are two acoustical characteristics associated with these panels. The first
is Noise Reduction. Coefficient (NRC). The NRC is the measure absorption of
reverberant noise within a room, sound waves that reflect between hard
surfaced walls. The recommended value is 0.75 to 0.9, which means 75 to 90
percent of the reflected sound that hits the panel is absorbed. The higher the
value the better.
The second value is Sound Transmission Class (STC), The STC is a measure
of noise reduction of noise that passes through the panel. The higher the value
the better. A STC value of 20 means a noise level will be reduced by 20 decibels
(dB) by passing through the panel which is equivalent to noise reduction.
Option 2
With the common metal wall cleared add a second wall to the first (or existing)
wall spaced at least one Inch from the first. The new wall should be 2x4 wood
(or metal) studs with R-13 in the stud bays with 2 layers of 5/8 type X drywall
on the room side of the wall. Do not put any drywall in the common airspace
between the walls. Caulk under the second floor plate. Improvement is at least
8 to 12 dB. Take the new wall to bottom of true ceiling. See attachment 2.
To be assured of obtaining the noise reduction of the walls as designed, the
following precautions should be observed*
I. A non-hardening acrylic latex resilient strip of tube caulking should be
utilized under the floor plates of the walls to affect an air-tight seal.
Examples include. U.S.G. Acoustical Sealant or Lowry #10 caulk, or
equivalent.
-2-
L14-021
March 25, 2014
2. After the drywall is installed on the wall, but before taping, the perimeter
of the common walls should be visually checked or physically probed to
locate openings at the interfaces between the wall and intersecting walls
that could be sound leakage paths. Any gaps should be sealed with
quality acrylic latex caulking such U.S. Gypsum Acoustic Sealant or
Lowry #10 caulk, or equivalent, prior to mudding and taping.
3. Any openings in the rear or sides of outlet boxes or electrical boxes
mounted on the wall should be sealed with duct seal or electrical box
sealing pads (dum-dum pads). Also, cutouts in the drywall
accommodating these electrical Mures should be sealed with exterior
caulking. Outlet or electrical boxes servicing opposite sides of the wall
should have at least one stud bay between them. Outlet boxes are
defined as receptacles, switches, surface-mounted lighting fixtures,
junction points, telephones, thermostats, television uses, etc.
4. Insulation used in sound control assemblies may be fiberglass or
mineral wool, but the material should have at least one open face to
provide acoustical absorption and have a rating R-13 or greater.
5. No solid connections should be made between the two sides of the wall
through the R-13 insulation layer.
A summary of the optional materials and shielded noise levels on the
commercial side opposite the proposed Sportsplex area is shown in Table 1.
If you have any questions regarding this information, please call.
Sincerely;
Richard Co

8. Director Authority. The Director may require:
a. Photometric diagram and catalog cuts for conformity
review of these standards.
b. Fixture replacement if it is found that glare continues
to be an issue following installation of lighting fixtures.
C, Illumination levels for uses not set forth in this Sub-
Section A.
d. Minor Use Permit pursuant to Chapter 11.5.20:
Development Permits, when security, energy conservation, aesthetics, or design
requirements require modifications of the standards in this Sub-Section A.
B, Noise. The following noise standards are guidelines and
performance-based standards only. If an area currently is below the desired
maxirnUrn noise levels, an increase in noise LIP to the MaXiMUM should not
necessarily be allowed. The impact of a proposed project on an existing land
use should be evaluated in terms of the increase in existing noise levels and
potential for adverse community impact.
1. 'Definitions. The following definitions apply to the provisions
of this Section only.
a. Normally acct table: the specified land use is
satisfactory, based upon the assumption that any buildings involved are of
normal conventional construction, without any special noise insulation
requirements,
b. Conditionally qqp
gptatu: the specified land use may
be permitted with the preparation of a noise study and only after detailed analysis
of the noise reduction requirements and needed noise insulation features are
included in the design,
C. Unacceptable: new construction or development
should generally not be undertaken because mitigation is usually not feasible to
comply with Noise Element policies.
2. Outdoor Noise Levels. All new development shall comply
with the outdoor noise standards established in Table 11.4.10,020.1 .2: Outdoor
Noise Levels,

Outdoor Noise Levels for Residential Areas. The goa'
for maximum outdoor noise levels in residential areas is an Ldn of 60 dB, This
level is a requirement to guide the design and location of future development and
is a goal for the reduction of noise in existing development, This goal will be
applied where outdoor use is a major consideration (e.g,, backyards in single-Unit
hoUSing developments and open space areas in multi-unit housing projects),
The outdoor standard will not normally be applied to the small decks associated
with apartments and condominiums but these will be evaluated on a ease--icy-,
case basis. Where the Director determines that providing an Ldn of 60 dfl or
lower outdoors is not feasible, the outdoor goal may be increased to an Ldn of 6
dB upon approval of a Minor Use Permit, pursuant to Chapter 11,5.20:
Development Pert-nits,
b. Transportation Noise Sources. For other, non-
transportation related noise sources. noise levels outdoors should not exceed the
limits in Table 11.410.0203.2. Outdoor Noise Levels, move.

RE: Intent of Proposed Operations
To Planning Commission, Planning Staff, and Residents of Seal Beach:
Athletes-in- Motion 4 Life (AIM) is an innovative company dedicated to youth
sports and training. We have been in business for two years and would like to
expand to a proposed Sportsplex in the Tenant Space on 1718 Apollo Court. The
use of the space will comprise of a 24,541 s.f. recreational facility (either 6
volleyball courts or 4 basketball courts with 2,383 s.f. of office area.
AIM Sportsplex proposes basketball/volleyball activity to include youth league
games, youth club team practices and private lessons, which will also be
accessible to the Seal Beach Parks and Recreation Department, and Los Alamitos
Parks and Recreation Department, as well as local elementary, middle, and high
school. AIM Sportsplex anticipated hours of operation will be from 8:00am to
10:00pm on Monday-Friday and from 7:00am to 10:00pm on Saturday and
Sunday. It should also be noted that the AIM Sportsplex would have minimal
daytime activity during the weekdays from 8:00am to 4:00pm. We anticipate on
a worst-case scenario a maximum of 119 persons in attendance during a
weekday league play, which includes 3 staff members, and on a worst-case
scenario a maximum of 184 persons in attendance, which includes 8 staff
members, during a weekend league play.
We thank you for your consideration. AIM looks forward to providing the youth
of the community a premier indoor facility in which to practice and play.

Subject: Application for Conditional Use Permit 14-1
Dear Planning Commission,
In a genuine effort to be business and neighbor-friendly,Athletes in Motion (AIM) 4 Life
is pleased to provide this report of our ongoing actions in addressing the concerns of
our prospective neighbors Diversified Technology Systems, Inc. (DTS), MAGTEK,TYR and
Encore Aerospace. In the spirit of building strong neighbor relationships,we have
reached out to these neighboring businesses on multiple occasions to understand their
concerns with the intent of considering solutions that are amenable to all parties.
Please see the following summary of the expressed concerns and proposed solutions
discussed with each of these businesses individually.
Diversified Technology Systems, Inc.(DTS)—The AIM team first met with DTS late in
2013 as a result of the letter DTS submitted to the City of Seal Beach, dated November
15,2013. The group discussed DTS's concerns regarding parking,security, safety&
sound attenuation. These items have been addressed as follows:
• Parking-AIM has followed the City of Seal Beach Planning Department's
request to submit a Parking Demand Analysis as part of our Conditional Use
Permit submittal. The parking analysis substantiates that the allotted parking
spaces for the AIM Sportsplex facility meets the demand for the conditional use
and;therefore, alleviates the concern that AIM Sportsplex patrons would need
to park in parking spaces allotted to DTS. Additionally,AIM will monitor parking
of its patrons to ensure they do not park in parking spaces allotted to DTS or the
parking lots of the other neighboring business.
• Security&Safety—AIM Sportsplex will be a"best in class"operation and is
committed to ensuring all athletes are monitored by staff and coaches in a
manner to prevent security issues from arising. AIM is also amenable to
enlisting security services on an as needed basis. Additionally,AIM willingly
accepts Planning Commission Staff Report Resolution No. 14-2,Section 4.E
which mandates that operation of the facility will not be detrimental to the
health,safety or welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity.
• Sound Attenuation—As a result of AIM's concerns that athletic activity
sounds may transfer into DTS's offices,we have contracted with an acoustical

engineer, [oia Acoustical Consultants,to evaluate the potential noise impact
and acoustical properties of the existing clemising wall that divides DTS and the
A|MSportsp|ex. AIM will construct an additional 6emisin8waU (separated with
an air gap) per the recommendation from Colia Acoustical Consultants in order
to mitigate athletic play sounds to a level below the required maximum level as
allowed per The City of Seal Beach Municipal Code. Additionally,the existing
concrete floor slab will be cut along the length uf the new demising wall to
prevent reverberation through the concrete floor into the adjacent space.
DlS(Port 2)—The AIM team met with DTS for a follow up meeting on Monday, March 3^
2014. At which time,DTS outlined an additional list of concerns pertaining to athletic
play outside of the facility, loitering in the alley to the South of DTS, noise passing
through open doors to the exterior,vehicle flow of our patrons entering and exiting the
AIM Sortsp|ex. DT5 also requested trading of assigned parking spaces aa identified by
our mutual Lessor,separate metering of utility services and roof access relocation. We
intend tu manage the above items of concern asfollows:
° Outside Play 8K Loitering—AIM is strongly committed to the safety ofour
patrons&neighbors;therefore, no athletic play uf any kind shall beallowed
outside of our facility. Additionally,we willingly accept adhering tuPlanning
Commission Staff Report Resolution No. 14-2,Sections 5.16 and 5,17 as they
pertain to loitering and noise in the parking lot.
° Noise Cd)Open Doors—AIM intends to control the act of temporarily propping
open any exterior doors in a manner not allowing sounds from athletic play to
cause u disturbance 10 any neighbors.
*Vehicle Flow—AIM will implement several measures for directing the flow of
patron vehicles entering and exiting our premises to include items such as:
Posting instructions on our website identifying specific entry,exiting&parkinQ
procedures; providing monitors to direct patrons 10 the designated entry and
parking areas; placement of cones tu prevent patrons from entering
unclesignated areas;and placement of signage(permanent or temporary) if
needed and allowable by the City uf Seal Beach and Pacific Gateway Business
Center Association,
* Parking Spaces, Utilities and Roof Access—AIM is agreeable toDT3's
proposed trading of(9)of the tenant assigned parking spaces as identified in
our respective lease agreements and the separate metering of utility services as
outlined inA|K4's lease agreement.AIM is also amenable to the proposed
relocation of the roof access door which currently is located within our space
and will participate in such planning along with DTS and the Landlord.
MAGTEK—AIM representatives have met with MAGTEK on three separate occasions
during the past few weeks and also participated in MAGTEK's meeting with the City of
Seal Beach Planning Department on March 1Q, 2U14. Our first two meetings with
MAGTEK were focused on addressing their concerns outlined in the letter they
submitted to the City uf Seal Beach un March 3,2O1Q. The issues identified at that time
included MAGTEK's concern regarding 5:OOpm traffic on Apollo Court, unauthorized use

ofK4AGTEK's parking lot and trespass onK4AGTEKproperty. The letter concluded with a
list of items of which K4A6TEK requested that the City of Seal Beach include as
provisions of the Conditional Use Permit. AIM's response to MAGTEK's initial list of
concerns and requested provisions are asfollows:
@ 5:OUpM Traffic mn Apollo Court—MA6TEK acknowledged in their letter dated
March 3,2014 that they generate a significant amount of traff ic on Apollo Court
by the approximated 2OO cars exiting their parking lot weekdays between
5:00pm-5:15pm. Asa result uf this condition, MAGTEK expressed their
concern regarding the estimated 40 cars exiting the AIM Sportsplex during that
same 5:UOpm—S:16pm time period,which was based upon the planned
weekday operation practices at AIM Sportsplex originally scheduled to occur
from 3:30pm-5.08pm. Therefore, upon further consideration of our patrons
arriving at AIM Sportsplex and taking into account MAGTEK's concern,we have
adjusted our planned weekday operation practice schedule such that practices
will now begin at 2:30pm,4:3Opm, 6:3Opm and 8:3Opm. This change inpractice
schedules will benefit the patrons of AIM Sportsplex from encountering the
5:00pm traffic generated by the surrounding businesses and it will also preclude
A|k4's patrons from adding to the existing traffic within the business park
between the hours of 4:45pm-6:00pm,thereby alleviating MAGTEK's 5:00pm
traffic concern.The weekday practice revision has been documented inthe
Parking Demand Analysis Addendum generated byLinscutt, Law 8'Geenspan
and submitted to the City of Seal Beach on March 17,2U14.
w Unauthorized use ofK4AGTEN'm Parking Lot—AIM has assured K4A6TEKthat
we shall be responsible for enforcement of AIM Sportsplex participant,staff and
visitor parking within the confines of our allotted parking @ 1718 Apollo Court.
Additionally,we will monitor parking and establish a towing policy for any AIM
Sportsp|ex related vehicles parked on neighboring property,
m Trespass mm$NAGTEK Property—AIM isin agreement with MAGTEK that the
trespass by any AIM Sportsp|ex patrons onMAGTEK property is not tobe
permitted or tolerated and will manage our facility accordingly.

HAAGTE&(Part 2)—AIM met with K4AGTEKa third time on March 17, 2Ul4,atwhich
time MA5TEKcommunicated two additional items of concern pertaining to athletic play
in AIM &neighboring parking lots and open exterior doors during athletic activities.
These additional items are identified in a second letter submitted to the City of Seal
Beach from MAGTEKon March 19^2O14. /\|M'u response toK8AGTEK'sadditional
concerns are asfollows:
Additional Requested Provisions(From MA@TEK letter dated March 19,2014)
2,C)"Require AIM assure there are mo sports activities undertaken bVits
participants im its parking lot,B8a@TeN/u parking lot,ar parking lots mfothers
located within the PGBC(if its necessary Nm limit this provision tsMagTek,
please dw).°AIM will not allow athletic play uf any kind outside nf our facility or
on neighboring properties.
2. D)"Require AIM leave its west facing exterior door closed, while sports
activities are taking place semstm minimize noise caused by its participants'
activities." AIM intends to control the act of temporarily propping open any
exterior doors ina manner not allowing sounds from athletic play tucause a
disturbance to any neighbors.
TYR—In the spirit of listening to the concerns of all neighbors,AIM reached out to TYR
in person and via email in early March with the hopes of discussing the letter they
submitted to the City of Seal Beach,dated February 24,2014. Unfortunately,TYR did
not respond to either attempt uf contact made byAIM. Therefore,vxe regret tureport

that we were not allowed the opportunity to communicate our gesture of
acknowledging and responding toTYR'sletter. However, being that the concerns ofTYR
were similar in nature to the concerns of other neighbors,we feel confident that their
concerns have subsequently been addressed byAIM.
Encore Aerospace-AIM originally contacted Encore Aerospace via email on February
25, 2014 to provide information pertaining to the AIM Sportsplex project and entertain
any feedback they had respectively. Initially, Encore responded that generally speaking
they did not have any significant concerns as long as the operation ofAIM Sportsp|ex
did not create an adverse impact of effect on their business.
To our knowledge, Encore Aerospace has not formally submitted a letter of concern to
the City of Seal Beach. However,they did reach out tousun March 6,2O14requesting
additional information pertaining tu the project. As result ofthis request,an AIM 4
Life representative met with Encore Aerospace on March 7,2014 to review the project
plan. During this meeting Encore expressed a concern of opinion that AIM 4 Life, as a
Lessee,does not have a vested interest in the Pacific Gateway Business Center.
Subsequently, Encore suggested that AIM request that the City of Seal Beach write inan
annual review asa stipulation for approval of the Conditional Use Permit. This initial
meeting concluded with arequest from Encore Aerospace to speak directly with the
Principal ofAIM ina future telephone call.
On March 17,2U14,John Gallegos of AIM reached out to Encore Aerospace via
telephone to listen to Encore's comments regarding the AIM Sportsplex project.
Essentially,the conversation concluded with a sole request from Encore Aerospace
asking AIM to willingly propose an annual review of the Conditional Use Permit upon
approval. AIM, respectfully, is not willing to offer or accept such a condition of approval
for the Conditional Use Permit. Additionally,vxe understand that an annual Conditional
Use Permit review is not legally allowable. However,that being stated,weknowingly
accept that an approved Conditional Use Permit is subject to modification or revocation
by the City of Seal Beach at any time. Therefore,AIM believes that Encore's concern is
alleviated by Planning Commission Staff Report Resolution No. 14-2,Section 5.21 which
states"The Planning Commission reserves the right to revoke or modify this[UP if any
violation of the approved conditions occurs,or any violation of the Code of the City of
Seal Beach oczurs."
In closing,AIM is highly optimistic that we have successfully considered and alleviated
all substantiated concerns as raised by our future neighbors. VVe have been diligent in
our effort to understand and address all items with good faith intentions of building
strong neighbor relations for the future.Therefore,AIM appreciates your kind
consideration for approval of our Request for Conditional Use Permit,(CUP 14-1).
Sincerely,

Seal Beach, CA 90740
We are writing to address our concerns regarding the proposed addition of the Aim 4 Life business
into the Pacific Gateway Business Center at the specific address of 1718 Apollo Court. We have
had two conversations with Crystal Landavazo of the Planning Department and she has
encouraged DTS to submit our concerns in writing. We understand that no application for
consideration of this business has been submitted to the City as yet.
Diversified Technical Systems, Inc. (DTS) is a business that has been headquartered in Seal
Beach for over 20 years. The company recently relocated the corporate headquarters from the Old
Town location at 909 Electric Avenue to a larger facility in the Pacific Gateway Business Center.
DTS has signed a 5 year lease with Apollo Bldg. 2, LLC for 49,382 square feet (90 parking spaces)
at 1720 Apollo Court. The expansion of space allows the company to continually grow and
provide revenue and jobs within the community. DTS worked closely with the City of Seal Beach
building department to obtain required permits for the building improvements.
In order to maintain our occupancy permit, DTS is required to have parking spaces that comply
with the Business Center and City codes. The Business Center published parking ratio and the
City code differ, however; both demand that DTS have a minimum of 89 spaces to accommodate
the square footage and the related usage. The representatives of the proposed Aim 4 Life
business have requested that we approve a reduced number of parking spaces to allow their
facility full use of parking to accommodate their events and schedules. We are not approving any
changes to our parking as to not violate the DTS business practices, CC&Rs, lease agreement and
the City requirements.
Our concerns with the proposed addition of the Aim 4 Life sports complex are the increase in
continuous traffic with an estimated additional 120-150 cars daily and the loss of quiet use and
enjoyment of the DTS business office due to noise from sporting events and traffic throughout the
common area. We are also concerned about the safety of personnel and the increase in persons
attending with no interest in the maintenance of the surrounding businesses. In summary DTS
believes that the Aim 4 Life sports complex is a retail business that will disrupt the normal activities
of this high technology business park and that the available parking does not support their intended
use.
DTS has also communicated all concerns with the Apollo Bldg. 2, LLC broker, Mar West Realty
(Property Manager), the Board of Directors for the business center association and the surrounding
businesses.
We welcome the opportunity to discuss this further with City representatives.
Sincerely, 11) -

RE: CUP 14-1—Athletes In Motion 4 Life Conditional Use Permit application for 1718 Apollo Court
Dear Sirs I Madame,
In our letter to the City of Seal Beach dated 15 November 2013 we detailed a number of concerns with the
proposed AIM 4 Life SportsPlex including parking,traffic,noise,and safety issues. We recently reviewed the
completed CUP 14-1 application and Staff Report and these documents validated our concerns that the
potential issues should be addressed as much as possible within the CUP to minimize the impact on neighboring
buVnesses. We met with the team from AIM 4 Life on Monday 3 March 2014 and discussed these issues and
reached verbal agreement about mitigating traffic measures. We feel addressing these and additional noise
concerns(in addition to the existing conditions already published in CUP 14-1)will help assure that they are met
by the responsible parties.
Noise and Safety concerns from outside play
We are concerned that the area outside the facility might be used by groups practicing volleyball,basketball,
cheering,or other sports and those activities would Increase noise and decrease safety. To the extent they are
not covered by the noise conditions already imposed In CUP 14-1,we request there be an additional restriction
on sports and cheering activities outside the SportsPlex. Safety concerns to SportsPlex patrons would seem to
also dictate this condition be imposed or recommended as a best practiceibythe.business.
Noise not contained when doors are open
We are additionally concerned that if SportsPlex outside doors e aln 0pert,10eft games or other sports
activities that noise normally contained by the building anct the derni tr);,*aCI would be present outside and
could be a nuisance. We request that the CUP address#fFiis asil�VV

Tu Whom |t May Concern;
The purpose of this letter is voice our concern over the proposed construction of basketball and
volleyball courts in the Pacific Gateway Business [enter at 1718 Apollo Court by Aim 4 Life. Our
apprehension regarding the proposed addition is threefold. One, it will greatly increase the traffic in an
area where significant bottlenecking and parking availability issues already occur. Two, the purpose of
the Pacific Gateway Business Center isto provide a quiet, professional environment conducive to the
operations of business, something that would be greatly compromised with this addition. Three, the
Business Center would be inundated with individuals who have no vested interest inthe maintenance,
cleanliness and/or safety of our property.
To provide further context regarding the history of our Company, TYR Sport was founded in 1985 and
has spent the better part of the last twenty four years doing business in Huntington Beach, CA. We
purchased the property at 1790 Apollo Court in 2009 with the vision of a new,state of the art Corporate
Headquarters that might serve as an example for other action sports companies. We have invested
significant capital into the building and have provided a great deal of revenue that has benefited the
local community. Our goal is to make this building and the city of Seal Beach our home for a long time.
We would prefer to mitigate the disruption, potential lack of safety, and parking problems that this
proposed addition might bring about.
Please carefully consider the implications of this proposal. We appreciate your thought and time put
into this matter and equally anticipate its resolution.VVe welcome the opportunity to discuss the matter
at the Public Hearing on March Fifth.
Sincerely,
Chief Executive Officer

Athletes in Motion 4 Life Reguest for a Conditional Use Permit
1718 Apollo Court.,Seal Beach,CA 90740
..`~
Dear Planning Department Staff and Planning Commissioners:
We are writing in anticipation nf the April 2nd Commission hearing to consider the Application
of Athletes io Motion 4 Life(/\lM for o Conditional Use Permit(Cl7P)allowing basketball,volleyball,
and other sporting activities iva portion nf the building located a1 l7l0 Apollo Court*,the west and
southwest sides u{which directly abut and parallel the east and southeast sides o[the MauTekovmnsd
property located at l7lO Apollo Court.This im our second written communication nuthis subject, and is
intended ama complete replacement for our earlier letter nf March 3,20|4.
We at MagTek have a number of concerns about this proposal: (1)AIM's planned activities are
inconsistent with operations of companies currently operating in the Pacific Gateway Business Center
(PBGC);(%)The possibility fu major increase in traffic entering Apollo Court,while 2OOormore
MuuTek employee vehicles will bo exiting l7l0 Apollo Court at5:O0fM(this constitutes udirect
violation of the PBGC CC&R's recorded against the property—see page two of this letter);(3)
Unauthorized use of our parking lot;(4)Trespass and possible damage to our property,when our
employees are not here to protect it; and(5)The noise that may be generated by those attending AIM
activities in the absence of strictly enforced rules on the conduct of attendees when outside the facility.
1.) AIM's plans are not compatible with surroundin2 businesses and those businesses will be
adverselv affected by AIM's presence
It has been stated AIM's operating characteristics will be compatible with and not adversely affect the
surrounding businesses.We respectfully disagree.At the present time there are 64 parking spaces
available for a tenant of the space intended for AIM. Since The Seal Beach Municipal Coderogobew
recreation facilities of1bimmizob`po)vidmcmcpu6kinuspuowfbceucb3UOaq. 0i. of±acUitympaos,tbep|au
imto allow 29 additional parking spaces on the property inuo area heretofore reserved for the passage uf
trucks serving the current tenant.If this space was leased to a business similar to the surrounding
bumioemmo4 engaged in engineering,research and development as well as manufacturing,there would not
beu need for additional spaces.

AIM's plan envisions having as many as 1 1 1 persons engaged in volleyball activities on its premises 4
times a day during weekdays. On weekends AIM envisions having as many as 184 persons engaged in
volleyball activities on its premises at a time. The sheer number of persons involved in these activities
renders them incompatible with activities of surrounding businesses.
2.) A major increase in traffic entering Apollo Court
MagTek currently employs approximately 210 permanent and 20 temporary employees,who are located
at 1710. Our work day ends at 5:00 PM on Monday through Thursday. As a result approximately 200
regular and temporary employee vehicles leave MagTek's parking lot and enter Apollo Court at or very
close to 5:00 PM. On occasion the numbers of vehicles leaving the parking have peaked at 235.The
original Parking Demand Analysis the Analysis),prepared for AIM, indicated somewhere between 108
and 119 athletes,coaches,and staff will be entering its proposed athletic facility at 3:30, 5:00, 6:30 and
8:00 PM each workday. The vehicles delivering the 5:00 PM AIM participants would be moving west on
Apollo Court and attempting to turn left into the 1718 Apollo parking lot in front of the exiting MagTek
employee vehicles,which would be attempting to move east on Apollo Court.
This situation would be exacerbated by repetitive occurrences that do not appear to have been addressed
by the original Analysis. It did not take into consideration the fact cars containing the 100 or so
participants who have just finished their 1.5 hour AIM 3:30 PM session would be attempting to leave the
area while at the same time the cars containing the next 100 or so participants will be attempting to enter
the area for activities at AIM—all via Apollo Court. Add to that mix,the fact 200 or more MagTek
employee vehicles would be attempting to leave their parking spaces via Apollo Court as well,at 5:00 PM
on Monday through Thursday of each week. Here we would add that the Analysis also did not appear to
take into consideration the possibility non-participant spectators may swell the ranks in attendance at
some or all of the training sessions,nor does it mention traffic from vehicles of the other businesses using
Apollo Court.
There seems little doubt,as originally planned,the resulting traffic jams would inconvenience both
groups leading at best to tension and severe frustration and at worst to numerous confrontations and even
accidents on Apollo Court.We now understand AIM will change the original 5:00 PM weekday start
times to 4:30 PM and that revision is reflected in a March 17 Addendum to the Analysis.This
change will alleviate most if not all of this traffic concern, however until the revised AIM hours are
reflected in the Development Department Staff Report,and the CUP our concerns remain.
Also important AIM's Request for Provisional Use permit appears to violate the Declaration of
Covenants,Conditions and Restrictions(CC&R's)for the PGBC in which the basketball and volleyball
center is intended to be located.To be more specific under Article 3.2.3 of the CC&R's"No Owner or
Occupant shall apply for the Entitlements necessary to obtain,with respect to any Lot(s)owned or
occupied by such Owner or Occupant any rezoning ... or other modification or increase in any
Entitlements(including,without limitation, maximum permitted building square footage,floor area
ratio or peak traffic generation)applicable to said respective Lot(s)as of the date of acquisition of same
www.magtek.com
MAGTEK"
7�F7'_19?-,'FFItTVI 7T1 '_E
by such respective Owner or Occupant,without the prior written consent of the Design Review
Committee in its sole and absolute discretion from time to time". Emphasis supplied
To the best of our knowledge the Design Review Committee of the PGBC has not been requested to
review the increase in peak traffic generation that would occur if AIM is given permission to operate its
proposed basketball and volleyball facility in the building at 1718 (Please refer to the Analysis referred to
above). Since these CC&R's prevent an increase in peak traffic generation without permission of the
PGBC Design Review Committee,this application for a CUP appears to be premature.
3.) Unauthorized use of MagTek's Parking Lot
Again, the east and southeast sides of MagTek's 1710 Apollo Court parking lot parallel the west and
southwest sides of the 1718 Apollo Court parking lot.These two parking lots are only separated by two
curbs, two planted strips and a small hedge row. Additionally the sole entrance to the 1710 parking lot is
next to the primary entrance planned for access to the 1718 parking lot. They are on the same cul-de-sac
circle, at the end of Apollo Court, and are within approximately thirty feet of each other.
Perhaps most important people will enter the AIM facility from the south west side of the 1718 parking
lot,therefore making it by far the most popular onsite parking location for AIM participants, due to its
proximity to the AIM facility entrance. Since there may not be enough easily accessible parking spaces
on the west and southwest side of the AIM facility to comfortably accommodate its participants, it will be
natural for those who cannot secure the most desirable parking in AIM's parking lot to enter MagTek's
parking lot.It will be obvious MagTek's parking lot provides the best alternative parking as it is the
shortest distance between a parking space and the entrance to AIM.
One thing is clear—People attending AIM activities will park on MagTek property in the absence of a
strong impediment to doing so.It is just human nature.Man almost always seeks the shortest distance
between two points, and MagTek's parking lot provides the natural target to assure that result. MagTek
has no means of assuring this will not happen on a regular basis.
MagTek will not authorize or permit unknown persons parking on its property.In the event AIM is
permitted to use 1718 Apollo Court, any and all costs of enforcement should fall on AIM. In the absence
of such enforcement AIM participants parking on MagTek property could easily lead to prescriptive
easement and liability issues with which MagTek should not be required to become involved. Therefore
MagTek is compelled to object to the AIM's proposal,as we understand it,to use the property at 1718
Apollo Court.
4.) Trespass on MagTek property,without permission
In the absence of evidence that our expressed concerns about unauthorized use of our parking lot are
unfounded,it follows people participating in activities at AIM, as proposed,will frequent MagTek's
property without permission and therefor will be trespassing. We hope the Seal Beach Development
Department and Planning Commission will agree the constant presence of unsupervised trespassers is not
something MagTek should be forced to accept.
www.magtek.com
Meetins with the Representatives of AIM
Two representatives of MagTek met with the Principal and three representatives wf AIM here u1 |71O
Apollo Court no Tuesday February 25th. During the course ofthe meeting our representatives outlined
the concerns expressed herein and described the CC< requirement for AIM tn seek written permission
from the PGBC Design Review Committee to increase peak traffic which would he generated bvthe
presence of AIM o1 )7l8 Apollo Court. Since that initial meeting,we have met with representatives of
AIM on additional occasions and had a number of telephone conversations about this sub j ect with them.
The AIM representatives assured the MagTek representatives AIM will hnresponsible for strict
enforcement m{AIM participant,staff and visitor parki within the coofiueuof parking available cdl7l0
Apollo Court. They further stated AIM will have an on scene parking supervisor to assure this result at all
times AIM is open for sporting activities.In addition the AIM representatives stated they would have any
vehicle belonging 1ou person or persons participating iuAIM activities towed,if they had parked u
vehicle on property other than that designated for parking on 1718 Apollo Court Property.
AIM representatives uo longer appear b`discount MugIek"e earlier expressed concerns about the major
increase iopeak 5:00 PM traffic Monday through Friday. In fact AIM representatives have indicated it
has addressed those peak traffic concerns,bvmoving its weekday activity turnover nearest N5:O09M8
to4:3O PM,rather than 5:OO PM. YWe have now seen an addendum tnthe Parking Demand Analysis dated
March l72Ol4confirming the change. l{that im the case, and this new schedule is incorporated in the
CUP vve will ho far less concerned than conveyed io our earlier letter.
MagTek's
While the meetings and discussions with AIM representatives have been very helpful,none of their verbal
assurances have meaning in the law and thereby cannot be enforced,since these issues involve real estate.
Consequently ne respectfully request the Planning Commission dn the following io connection with
AIM`m request for oCUP:
ll Refuse to issue AIM u Conditional Use Permit euthe grounds its proposed activities including
the volume of persons engaged in those activities renders it incompatible with the surrounding
businesses. Should this request fail,vve request the following:
2) Require that AIM seek and obtain written consent of PGBC's Design Review Committee for the
increase io peak traffic its presence would generate, before granting the CUP AIM has
requested.
3) Remove the first sentence in Section 4. D.of the drafted Planning Commission Resolution,
since, itim judgmental,uudvvomuggest1mootmopporbed6vfact.
4) UF the Planning Commission decides kz issue uCUP to AIM,we request the CUP include the
