square feet. The Atascadero Municipal Code allows accessory structures
larger than 50% of the primary residence through approval of a

PUBLIC COMMENT
Quentin Thompson, applicant, said the driveway to the garage is already existing. He
also explained he had discussed the water retention system requirement with Public
Works. He is only adding 500-600 sq. ft. of impervious surface (existing shed to be
removed), so a detention basin will not be required. Taller doors are needed on the
PC Draft Minutes of 4/6/10
Page 4 of 6
proposed garage to fit the travel trailer currently parked outside. The house is 16-17' tall
so the accessory structure isn't that much taller. The neighbor who owns the empty
open lot is considering building a similar structure. Mr. Thompson answered questions
from the Commission.
Aaron Jones, neighbor on Sycamore, spoke in opposition to the project. He said he
shares a fence with the applicant. They have owned their home for 11 years, and thinks
this will be a life -altering structure because of its large size. He feels the structure will
overcrowd the backyard. It will make them lose the open feeling they have now, and
will diminish their sunlight. He is also concerned about noise.
Chairperson Moreno closed the Public Comment period.
Commissioners had discussion regarding height restrictions, setbacks, slurry seal, and
consistency with the neighborhood. Staff confirmed that the structure does meet all
required setbacks. Staff also explained that although the structure is taller than a
standard detached garage, the structure could be considered to be consistent with the
general character of the neighborhood; however, neighborhood compatibly is subject to
Planning Commission interpretation. The condition regarding slurry seal or overlay of
the road frontage is a Public Works standard in the Municipal Code and can not be
waived. Frontage improvements are only required if the proposed project exceeds the
25% valuation threshold based on the appraised value of the property.
Chairperson Moreno re -opened the Public Comment period.
Quentin Thompson, applicant, explained that the only way to make the building shorter
would be to flatten the roof which would affect the trusses. He said that he had already
discussed the frontage improvement requirements with Public Works. The proposed
garage will not exceed the valuation threshold, and therefore, he will not have to do the
frontage improvements. If he did have to overlay the road, it would not be cost effective
for the project. The garage will be used to park the trailer and keep other belongings
inside. There may be days when he will be working in the garage. He has no plans to
pursue activities that are unusually noisy in the garage. The building has 6" thick walls
and is insulated, so it will be quiet. They will not be running a business.
Aaron Jones, neighbor, suggested that Mr. Thompson order shorter trusses to make the
building shorter. He does not appreciate that the building is 20' tall.
Chairperson Moreno closed the Public Comment period.

Motion passed 6:0 by a roll -call vote.
COMMISSIONER COMMENTS AND REPORTS
Commissioner Schmidt stated he is concerned with signage around town, including the
former Denny's site. He would like to know if it is compliant with the Sign Ordinance to
have a real estate sign on the Highway. The same company also has one on the road
by Santa Lucia Bank. On the west side of the highway, there is a commercial sign on
residential property. Are commercial signs allowed to be placed in residential zones?
Associate Planner Callie Taylor answered Commissioner Schmidt's questions and said
she will follow-up.
Commissioner Jack asked about election signs, in particular a Matt Kokkonen sign that
has already been put up west of Atascadero Avenue on Highway 41. We are not at the
60 -day point yet. He would appreciate it if the City Clerk would take some sort of action.
Associate Planner Callie Taylor said she would follow-up.

Chairperson Moreno explained that an Exhibit was just turned in tonight from John Ellis
and stated there is a copy available at the back table. (Exhibit A)
Associate Planner Callie Taylor addressed the items in Exhibit A.
DISCLOSURE OF EX PARTE COMMUNICATIONS:
None
PUBLIC COMMENT:
Janet and William Stockton, applicants, answered the questions regarding accessing
the parcel from the north. They explained that they spent a lot of time trying to pick the
most environmentally friendly way to design the project. The blue oak needs to come
out to satisfy the Fire Department road clearance requirements. There were no
questions from the Commission.
John Ellis, banker, said he discovered that this project was coming before the Planning
Commission last Thursday when he saw the lot posting. He spoke with some neighbors
and did some quick research. He is representing other neighbors and put together the
Rebuttal (Exhibit A). There are three critical path items; 1 -Tree Removal, 2- CEQA, and
3 -Financing. Financing is critical as most lenders are not doing construction loans. His
purpose is to help the Commission make sure the right decision is made. He does not
feel an urgency to take the trees out right now. He wants thoughtful thinking to go into
the decision to create a happy friendly environment.
William Stockton said his project has financing.
Robert Schreiber, Certified Arborist, has been working on the project for awhile. He
explained that the applicants have changed the access route three times trying to avoid
trees. The applicants are doing the best they can with what they have. Mr. Schreiber
answered questions from the Commission. Associate Planner Callie Taylor also
answered questions from the Commission.
Chairperson Moreno closed the public comment period.

DISCLOSURE OF EX PARTE COMMUNICATIONS:
• Commissioner Ward - None
• Commissioner Colamarino — none
• Vice Chairperson Bentz — none
• Chairperson Moreno — In March she received a letter from Baffin Commercial
Development Group, expressing disapproval for the project on behalf of Galaxy
Theatres. About six months ago, she met with Mike Sherer and John Roush who
explained the project to her.
• Commissioner Jack — No recent discussion, however, during the initial phase of
the project, he was invited to a meeting to see what the project looked like and to
see the vision.
• Commissioner Schmidt — When the project first came about, he spoke to Mike
Sherer about the project.
• Commissioner Sturtevant — He as well as the other Commissioners received an
email from Wanda Bolt who was not in favor of the project (Exhibit B). He also
received the letter from Mr. George Wm. Schroff, IV which was in their package
(Exhibit C)
Commissioner Colamarino understood from the Joint Session that there is an
expectation that this project is one piece of a larger development. We heard that this
theatre component will not go forward without the rest of the development, and that the
rest of the development will not go forward without the theatre. He asked that this be
put on the record. He also asked that the applicant explain for the record why we don't
have all of the exhibits provided tonight which is typical process before you come before
the Commission.
Chairperson Moreno adjourned the meeting at 8:44 p.m. for a break.
Chairperson called the meeting back to order at 8:50 p.m.

PUBLIC COMMENT
Ms. Erin Uesugi, Architect, said she was at tonight's meeting with Dan Uesugi, from
Uesugi & Associates in San Francisco. Ms. Uesugi gave a PowerPoint presentation on
the La Plaza project and explained the reason behind the architecture for the La Plaza
Cinemas. Ms. Uesugi also explained the historical significance behind the name La
Plaza. Ms. Uesugi believes this project will be a strong catalyst for the downtown and
will enhance the neighborhood. Ms. Uesugi answered questions from the Commission.
Mr. John Roush, applicant, explained that he went through the deferral process
because there is another theatre being built in town, the City has backed that project
financially, and he is applying for a height restriction, road easements, and he needs to
know all the answers before he can move forward. He needs to know if the project will
be approved before he spends a great deal of money in architect fees. He is interested
in this project because this is good for Atascadero. He is a resident and he thinks the
City deserves this entire project. He won't build a theatre without the rest of the project.
Mr. Roush also explained the potential possibilities for his project. Mr. Roush answered
questions from the Commission.
George Schroff spoke in opposition to the project. He thanked the Commission
members who visited Galaxy theatres in Tulare. He has taken the time to review the
Mitigated Negative Declaration and he has concerns. He cited Section 13, Population
and Housing (P. 85 of the staff report) and parking. He turned in his comments for the
record (Exhibit D).
Charlie Carlin stated he was at the Study Session and noted that only two people spoke
against the project. He said we have other competing businesses. We're bringing in
people from Templeton, Creston, and other areas. Mr. Roush has great experience in
building these top notch facilities and he asked the Commission to encourage this
project. He believes we can support all of this. The architects behind this have been
building theatres for 30 years and they have the knowledge.
Joanne Main, Atascadero Chamber of Commerce, commends the developers for
redeveloping this blighted area. Her hope is to see this whole block developed. She is
concerned about the lack of parking. She thinks there will be an economic impact on
neighboring businesses. Parking is something we need to be planned for.
Monte Clouse, resident, said he is interested in how La Plaza would be integrated into
the downtown core. He referred to page 77 of the staff report, (the Initial Study). He
sees this differently and explained why. Palm trees connote southern California. We
have everything to gain by being Central California. He asks if La Plaza goes forward,
that the palm trees not be part of it.
PC Draft Minutes of 4/20/10
Page 6 of 9
Ben Hoff, property owner from Nashville, Indiana, has been reviewing these
proceedings from afar. He spent 13 years being a City Attorney for Nashville, Indiana.
He told the Commission that they have a duty tonight to give Mr. Roush a shot at this
project since he (Mr. Roush) has done what he needs to do to bring a project before the
City. Mr. Roush wants to enter into a contract with the City in good faith. He thinks Mr.
Roush should be given this opportunity and be taken at his word.
Robert Miller has a dental office on West Mall and has been there for 26 years. Some
things have to be considered before the project moves forward. When the restaurant on
the corner came, the immediate impact on his office was parking. His elderly patients
have to walk quite a ways to get to the office during peak parking times. He is
concerned there will be a real parking problem.
Tom Comar went to the Study Session with concerns about having 20 screens in
Atascadero. After the meeting, he changed his opinion about it. He spoke with others
about having 20 screens and they said it would be good. He asked if an IMAX theatre
might be a possibility.
Karyn Sturtevant had the opportunity to go on the tour to Galaxy Theatres in Tulare.
She said we are fortunate to have two movie theatres coming to Atascadero. She is
equally excited to having La Plaza. We are going to go from having no theatres to
having a choice. People from all over will come to Atascadero. We can choose
whether we can go see a movie, an opera, or a sporting event. She is in support of the
project.
Mr. Roush answered questions raised during the public comment and stated there will
be 133 parking spaces onsite. He does not plan to build an IMAX theatre because it is
6 stories tall. He does not believe IMAX will happen here.
Chairperson Moreno closed the Public Comment period.
Community Development Director Warren Frace answered questions raised during the
public comment portion.
There was discussion amongst the Commission regarding parking. Director Frace
explained that staff's recommendation is the project should provide 25% of the required
parking in off-street locations within 500 ft. of the site. It is the Commission's discretion
to condition additional parking.
Commissioner Ward stated that he is still concerned the potential impact on the Colony
Square project. He hasn't heard anything tonight that gives him any comfort on that
aspect. It was clearly previously stated that perhaps both theatres may operate at 50%
capacity.

Staff Report - Community Development Department
Two Lot Subdivision
PLN 2010-1356/TPM 2010-0096
6955 Balboa Road
(Berry)
SUBJECT:
The proposed project consists of a Tentative Parcel Map to subdivide one existing 5.33
acre (gross) parcel in the Residential Suburban (RS) zone into two parcels. Parcel 1 is
proposed at 2.83 acres (gross) and contains an existing single-family residence. Parcel 2 is
proposed at 2.50 acres (gross) and would be a vacant lot for future residential development.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Planning Commission approve Resolution PC 2010-0013 approving
Tentative Parcel Map 2010-0096 (AT 10-0010), a request to subdivide one lot at 6955
Balboa Road, currently 5.33 acres gross, into two lots at 2.83 and 2.50 acres (gross) each,
based on findings and subject to conditions.
SITUATION AND FACTS:
1. Property Owner/ Applicant: Berry Family Trust, c/o David Berry, 4720
Whispering Oaks Way Paso Robles, CA 93446
2. Project Location: 6955 Balboa Road, Atascadero, CA 93422
APN 050-071-012
3. General Plan Designation: Rural Estate (RE)
4. Zoning District: Residential Suburban (RS)
5. Site Area: 5.33 acres gross (4.84 acres net)
6. Existing Use: One single-family residence
7. Environmental Status: Class 15 Categorical Exemption: Minor Land
Division of fewer than four parcels
DISCUSSION:
Backaround and Site Description:
The subject property is located at the corner of Balboa Road and Graves Creek Road. The
existing lot at 6955 Balboa Road is 5.33 acres gross (4.48 acres net) and has an average
slope of 7%. The site contains one existing residence which takes access off Balboa Road.
The southern half of the lot which fronts Graves Creek is currently undeveloped.
Surrounding residential parcels to the north, south, and west are zoned Residential
Suburban. Parcels to the east on the opposite side of Graves Creek Road are zoned OS
(Open Space) and A (Agriculture).

The project site contains Coast Live Oaks and White Oaks which are primarily clustered
around the existing residence and along the Graves Creek Road frontage. A few additional
oak trees are located in southeastern corner of the lot near property line. The majority of
the parcel is open and flat with no native trees.

Subdivision Design:
The existing lot at 6955 Balboa Road is 5.33 acres (gross area) and is proposed to be
subdivided into two parcels. The property is zoned Residential Suburban, which requires
an minimum lot size of 2.5 acres to 10 acres, based on performance standards such as
septic suitability, slope, distance to the center of the community, and average size of
surrounding parcels. In the Residential Suburban zone, gross acreage is used to determine
minimum lot size (not net area), as identified by the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan.
Minimum lot size calculations for the subject parcel were done and have identified a 2.5
acre (gross) minimum lots size for this property (see attachment 4).
Parcel 1, which contains an existing single-family residence, is proposed at 2.83 acres
(gross). Parcel 2 is proposed at 2.50 acres (gross) and would be a vacant lot for future
development as a single-family parcel.
The existing residence is located on the northern portion of the site (Proposed Parcel 1)
and takes access off Balboa Road. Proposed Parcel 2 would take access off Graves Creek
Road. Most of the trees on site are located around the existing residence and along the
property lines, leaving the majority of the site open for the development of a future
residence on Proposed Parcel 2. There is adequate room to construct a new residence on
Proposed Parcel 2 without removing any native trees. Since the parcel is primarily flat with
an average slope of less than 10%, building envelopes are not required to be recorded with
the map.

Public Improvements:

Proposed Tentative Parcel Map (AT 10-0010)
The City Engineer has conditioned that the applicant improve Balboa Road and Graves
Creek Road prior to the recordation of the final map. Balboa Road shall be widened in
conformance with City Engineering Drawing 401, Type A. The applicant shall also repair
and overlay Balboa Road across the frontage of the property to a width of one-half the right-
of-way plus 10 feet. Graves Creek Road shall be widened in conformance with City
Engineering Drawing 403, Type A, Rural Collector. The widening, at minimum, shall
complete one-half of the road on the side of the subject property. An arborist report shall
be prepared in conjunction with improvement plans for the road in order to identify any
native tree impacts associated with the required improvements.
Environmental Review:
The project qualifies for a Class 15 Categorical Exemption in accordance with the California
Environmental Quality Act. A Class 15 Exemption (Section 15315) consists of the division
of property into four or fewer parcels when the division is in conformance with the General
Plan and zoning, no variances or exceptions are required, all services and access to the
proposed parcels to local standards are available, the parcel was not involved in the division
of a larger parcel within the previous 2 years, and the parcel does not have an average
slope greater than 20 percent.
CONCLUSIONS:
The proposed subdivision is consistent with the 2002 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
The parcel configurations are consistent with the Subdivision Ordinance requirements and
the size and shape of the proposed lots are consistent with the character of the immediate
neighborhood. If approved, the project would allow for the construction of one additional
single-family residence. Staff recommends the Planning Commission approve the
Tentative Parcel Map as conditioned.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The Commission may approve the subdivision subject to additional or revised project
conditions. The Commission's motion to approve needs to include any new or revised
project conditions.
2. The Commission may deny the subdivision if it is found to be inconsistent with the
General Plan or any of the other required findings. The Commission's motion to deny
must include a finding basis for denial.
3. The Commission may continue the hearing and refer the item back to staff for additional
information or analysis. Direction should be given to staff and the applicant on required
information.
