Project Location: Atascadero Creek and various city rights-of-way (San Luis Obispo County) APN 028-201-005, 028-341-008, 009, 028-361-005, 033, 029-091-005, 029-104-004, 005, 029-105-034, 029-361-020, 031-361-012, 017, 003, 018, 025, 026, 008, 024, 015, 011, 007, 022, 020, 005, 031-351- 002, 054-152-001. 3. General Plan Designation 4. Environmental Status Background ITEM NUMBER: C - 1 DATE: 07/27/2006 OS and R -O -W Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration 2006-0024 On April 25, 2006, City Council referred the Atascadero Creek Trail project to the Parks and recreation Commission for review. On March 16,2006, the Parks and recreation commission held a public meeting to discuss the scope and location of the proposed trail. During that meeting, the Parks and Recreation Commission directed the RCD to move forward with the trail locations analyzed in the environmental document before you for certification. ANALYSIS: The construction of the Atascadero Creek Trail will provide a pedestrian connection from the Salinas River area at the at the eastern edge of the City to the western portion of the City connecting through Downtown and linking the new Atascadero youth center to surrounding neighborhoods. In addition, the creek trail will include connections to the Atascadero Lake Park and the Anza Trail. The trail will connect from the Salinas River Anza Trail to the Downtown Core and will provide a trail along Highway 41 from Portola Rd to San Gabriel Rd. The trail will be constructed on creek reservation parcels and existing City rights-of-way. Proposed Environmental Determination A Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration was circulated to public agencies and interested members of the public on June 23, 2006. The environmental analysis identified concerns regarding potential impacts to biology, cultural resources, geology and soils, hydrology and water quality, and transportation/traffic. Mitigation measures pertaining to these resources are included. The RCD will consult with a biologist and archeologist to ensure that all construction activities minimize impacts to sensitive species, native trees, and cultural resources. In addition, the RCD will be required to obtain a building permit prior to construction of the trail. A finding is proposed that this project would not have a significant effect on the environment based upon the implementation of the identified mitigation measures contained in the attached Mitigated Negative Declaration. ITEM NUMBER: C - 1 DATE: 07/27/2006 Conclusion As analyzed within the project Initial Study and Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration, the proposed Atascadero Creek Trail project would have no significant environmental impacts and will not be detrimental to the general public or working persons health, safety, or welfare with mitigation measures incorporated. FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed project will have a negative fiscal impact on City revenue. After completion of the trail construction, the City will be responsible for maintenance of the trail system including boardwalks and bridges and associated improvements such as benches, parking areas, and fencing. ALTERNATIVES: 1. The Parks and Recreation Commission may refer the item back to staff and the applicant to modify the location of the proposed trail. 2. The Parks and recreation Commission may determine that more information is needed on some aspect of the project and may refer the item back to the applicant and staff to develop the additional information. The Commission should clearly state the type of information that is required and move to continue the item to a future date. 3. Determine that there will be a significant impact to one or more areas under CEQA review and require that an EIR be prepared for the project.

The guidelines for this schedule are as follows: Nesting Birds: Any heavy or noisy construction that might adversely affect endangered or threatened species found in close proximity to the project will occur after July—once the nesting season has concluded. However, if breddig bird surveys are conducted by the Project Biologist from March 15 through June 15, and no breeding birds are detected, this window could be widened to include July. Tiger Salamander: If Tiger salamanders are encountered, no grading machinery shall be used during March and April. California Red -Legged Frog: Pre -construction survey will be carried out by a certified red -legged frog biologist 24 -hours prior to the beginning of work. Where California red -legged frog habitat(s) are detected, no grading machinery shall be used in designated areas from December to August. Mitigation Measure 4.4: As recommended by California Department of BP PS 4.e.3 Fish & Game Notification R3-2001-0171: ■ All work in the stream shall be confined to June 15 to October 15. ■ No equipment will be operated in live (wet) stream channels. ■ Any runoff during construction shall be diverted so as not to enter the stream. Sediment catchment basins, erosion control mats, fabric fences, or other appropriate means shall be used when such diversion are necessary. ■ Wash water containing mud or silt from construction operations shall not be allowed to enter the stream. ■ Structures and associated materials not designed to withstand high seasonal flows shall be removed to areas above the high water mark before such flows occur. ■ No debris, soil, silt, bark, sawdust, rubbish, cement or concrete or washing thereof, oil or petroleum products or other organic or earthen material from construction or associated activity or whatever nature shall be allowed to enter into or placed where it may be washed by rainfall or runoff into the stream. When operation are completed, any excess materials or debris shall be removed from the work area. No rubbish shall be deposited within 150 feet of the high water mark of the stream. Mitigation Measure 4.5. The Project Biologist shall clearly delineate the BP PS 4.e.4 limits of sensitive populations on the project plans, including as feasible, an adequate buffer area to avoid direct and indirect impacts. Survey work to demark sensitive resource zones will be conducted during the appropriate survey window to confirm sensitive species. During construction, temporary fencing shall be erected under supervision of the project biologist to provide protection within the sensitive resource zones. The fencing will be installed such that it will not impede the movement of the arroyo southwestern toad, California red -legged frog or south western pond turtle dispersal. Construction staging areas shall be located in disturbed habitat, to the maximum degree feasible.

ANALYSIS: The proposed park has been designed per the City Council direction as a passive, low - maintenance drought -resistant landscape. The park features informal berming and planting of native trees and ground cover. The park also contains an engineered drainage detention basin serving the proposed adjacent 11 residential single family development. Park maintenance will be accomplished by the homeowner's association of the proposed residential planned development. Where required, sidewalks along surrounding streets will include an offer of dedication to the city, providing public access to the sidewalks surrounding the project site. No pathways, benches, tables or play equipment are proposed within the park site, since th4 City is not going to accept the park for public use.. FISCAL IMPACT: The park site is part of the Planned Development project which will include a homeowner's association or equivalent mechanism providing all common area, park site, and drainage detention basin maintenance. Conclusion In staff's opinion, the proposed park is consistent with the City Council's request to for a low maintenance passive landscape to be maintained by the proposed development residents.

DISCUSSION: Background: For the past several years, the Parks and Recreation Commission has traditionally been dark in August, due to summer vacations and other conflicts. There is no urgent business pending that would require an August meeting of the Commission this year. There are however, some conflicts which the Commission may want to avoid. In particular, the San Luis Obispo County Prevention Alliance Annual Awards Dinner is being hosted by Atascadero this year at the Lake Pavilion, on August 17th. The Mayor and many Atascadero Youth Task Force members are planning to attend. This includes city staff and some Commissioners. This year, Paula Anton, with the Community Services Department, and Mobley's Board Shop are receiving awards for their service to youth. Many of us would like to attend. The city staff is recommending that the August 17th, 2006, meeting be cancelled. FISCAL IMPACT: None. ATTACHMENTS: None.
