Hrg opened Community Development Director Bruckner addressed this issue Testimony advising that the Planning Commission denied the precise Bruckner plan because concerns were raised about the financial feasibility of a motel on this site. Occupancy levels for 04/15/91 PAGE SIX other motels in Azusa have been lower than those within the San Gabriel Valley, which, in turn, have recently been lower than those in Los Angeles County as a whole. The lack of demand for conventional motel rooms has caused several motels in the area to specialize in long-term occupancies, in essence converting their motels into apartment uses, and these units do not have many of the amenities associated with most apartment complexes. The potential exists for a land use problem to occur due to the unlikelihood of the business to succeed. Mr. Don Bollinger, attorney for the applicant, addressed the Council stating that there were no mitigating factors to deny the precise plan; that the scope of the review was lost at the Planning Commission. Mr. Robb Rose, Vice President, Choice Hotels International presented a slide presentation depicting other motels in their chain and advised that this motel being in the chain would fare better than other motels, as they do extensive advertising, and that people generally tend to stay where they are assured of specific amenities, which the Econolodge offers. Mr. Norman Nichols, architect, addressed this issue advising that the first precise plan of design submitted to the Planning Commission was denied and he understood that. That since that time he had been contracted and the concept has been altered. That the building will be compatible with the area, that there would be no windows facing residential uses. Bob Schmellick performed a market study for the project and stated that it was marketable. People trust a "brand" such ,as the Econolodge. Ms. Wendy Kheel, Business Analyst, addressed this issue and stated that people will stay at an accredited chain and that it need not be adjacent to the freeway. If they trust the chain, they will go out of their way to stay at one. Testimony D. Bollinger Testimony R. Rose Testimony N. Nichols Testimony B. Schmellick Testimony W. Kheel Ms. Yolanda Trejo addressed this issue stating that there Comments are currently nine motels in the City, and that another one Y. Trejo is not needed. There will be extensive traffic and invasion of privacy to the residents in the area. Mr. Art Morales stated that the location for a motel at the Comments site was not appropriate. That the value of residential A. Morales property would go down if a motel were built there and that there are too many transients and the vacancy rate would be high. Ms. Mary Deal stated that there will be too much traffic if Comments a motel is built at the site. She has visited other M. Deal Econolodge motels and found that they do rent by the week and some of them are in poor condition. She submitted photographs to the Council of those sites visited.
