PLEASE NOTE: A proposed stock plan submittal is a request for the City of Atascadero to process and approve R-3 (single
family and/or duplex) structures for multiple sites, or sites not yet determined. Proposed stock plan submittals must contain
assumed distances to property lines, an assumed foundation design, assumed site conditions (such as fire severity zones,
proximity to slopes, etc.), Title 24 Analysis including all four orientations, truss calculations, and fire sprinkler plans with
assumed values for water pressure, distance to structure, and meter size. Approval of a proposed stock plan will apply to the
structure only, and will affect the review of any other aspect of the project. Stock plans may include up to four minor
elevation options. Reverse plans and changes to the exterior footprint of the building will be processed as separate stock plan
submittals.
Proposed stock plan submittals will be processed as a typical stand-alone submittal, with full plan-check fees applied. The first
subsequent submittal of a City Approved Stock Plan (for a site specific permit) will be assessed full plan-check and permit fees.
The following subsequent submittals will be assessed a reduced plan-check fee of up to 50%. No other fee reductions will
apply. If a review of a City approved Stock Plan submittal indicated that the assumed values do not meet the minimum
requirements of the proposed site conditions, the plans and supporting documents must be modified to match actual side
conditions, and the project will be processed as a stand-alone (non-stock plan) submittal. A copy of City Approved Stock Plans
will be kept on file in the Community Development Department, and will remain active until State or Local Code changes
require modifications to the approved plan.
