PROJECT LOCATION: 805 EI Camino Real, Atascadero, CA 93422: APN 049-043-002
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The proposed project consists of an amendment to an existing conditional use permit (CUP 2000-0008) to allow a 26 unit single-family
subdivision with a 60 unit seniors complex,know as the Rochelle Residential Project. A use permit for a 186-space recreational vehicle park
currently exists on the site. The applications consist of a zoning code text change to PD-9(ZCH 2003-0069),a Master Plan of Development for
Planned Development 9(PD-9)(conditional use permit,CUP 2002-0072)and a tentative tract map(TTM 2002-0020). The project will include
a 45.9-acre open space parcel that will protect the Salinas River flood plain area and provide a public park site. The site is bordered by the
Union Pacific Railroad to the south, the Salinas River to the north and Paso Robles Creek to the west. Graves Creek bisects the site.
Development areas are limited to flat bluffs above the riparian areas that have been historically used for dry farming. Project access will be from
El Camino Real in the form of a grade separated railroad crossing bridge which is currently under construction as part of a separate project. The
site has a General Plan Designation of SFRA(Single Family Residential 1h ac minimum), CREC (Commercial Recreation) and OS (Open
Space)and a Zoning District RSFA(Residential Single Family 1/2 ac minimum),LS(Special Recreation)and OS(Open Space)with a Planned
Development 9 overlay.

mitigation measures are incorporated into the project.
2. The project will not achieve short-term to the disadvantage of long-term
environmental goals.
