The proposed project includes a request to remove one (1) 42 -inch DBH Coast Live

is 90% dead, creating a potential hazard in a residential street, as certified by the
project arborist.

7. Site Area- 0.1539 acres
8. Existing Use- Vacant Planned Development (PD1 7)
BACKGROUND:
In 2004, the City Council approved an application for a Tentative Tract Map,
Conditional Use Permit, and Zone Change for a 25 unit, single-family residential
Planned Development subdivision. As a part of this approval, an Arborist Report was
completed in May 2004 detailing the condition of 73 native trees on site. The site was
designed to avoid impacts to as many native trees as possible. A total of 16 trees were
approved for removal as a part of the project approval.
One of the key features of the development was the preservation of tree #64, a 42 -inch
live oak. The development proposed that Atalaya Street would split and a traffic circle
would be constructed around this large tree, preserving the oak tree and creating a key
focal point and traffic calming similar to the preserved oaks in the middle of the right-of-
way in the adjacent Oak Grove Phase I subdivision (Regio Place).

ITEM NUMBER: 2
DATE: 10-19-10
In November 2005, the developer entered into a Performance Security Agreement with
the City, for on and off-site improvements consistent with the approved public
improvement plan. This agreement allowed the developer to proceed with recording a
Final Map and legally subdividing the project into 25 single-family residential lots prior
to completing the required improvements as outlined in the conditions of approval. In
return, the developer secured performance bonds to ensure the public improvements
would be completed as conditioned. The City would be able to execute these bonds to
ensure the public improvement work is complete to the satisfaction of the City Engineer
if the developer failed to complete the improvements.
Initial grading and construction activities occurred in 2007, but eventually ended with
the beginning of the recession. The owners of the property, Estate Financial, filed for
Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection in June of 2008. The property is currently under
receivership and is seeking a buyer for the project.
Recently, the City has taken steps to ensure that public improvements are completed
consistent with approved public improvement plans for some of the larger subdivisions
that have fallen into foreclosure. The City recently initiated actions on redeeming the
$1.2 million bond for the subject tract (2640, Oak Grove Phase II) to ensure completion
of the public improvements that were approved (BLD 2005-4677).
ANALYSIS:
An application has been submitted by Michael Fredericks Paving Company on behalf of
the receivership of 24 ECR, LLC for the removal of one (1) 42" Live Oak. The tree is
located on Atalaya Street in the center median nearest EI Camino Real. Public
improvements are being completed consistent with approved plans for the Oak Grove
Phase 2 (BLD 2005-4677). Atalaya Street was planned to split at the centerline of the
proposed roadway near the subject tree. The tree was to be preserved within a traffic
circle, per the original project design.
The City Engineer and Michael Fredericks Paving met on site in Spring of 2010 to
discuss the public improvements that needed to be complete. At that time, both the City
Engineer and the applicant agreed that the subject tree appeared dead with no visible
green foliage. The applicant has commenced work on the public improvements on-site
and is now seeking a tree removal permit for the dead tree.
Steven G. Alvarez, A&T Arborists, was retained by Michael Fredericks Paving
Company for an assessment of the subject tree. Mr. Alvarez, on the tree removal
permit application, noted that the subject tree is 90% dead due to construction impacts
with no mitigation care.
Tree Mitigation
ITEM NUMBER: 2
DATE: 10-19-10
The Atascadero Municipal Code requires mitigation for all trees approved for removal.
AMC Section 9-11.105 identifies specific conditions of approval which are required with
the approval of a tree removal. Planning Commission can approve one or more of the
following conditions as mitigation:
AMC Section 9-11.105: Tree removal permits shall be conditioned by one or more of the
following methods:
(i) Depending on the characteristics of the site the applicant may plant replacement trees on
site. This method shall include payment in advance for three (3) site inspections during a four
(4) year establishment period;
(ii) Payment of fee to the Tree Replacement Fund;
(iii) Establishment of conservation easements, which will restrict removal of any tree within a
designated area of the property. (Ord. 350 § 2 (part), 1998)
In accordance with Section 9-11.105 of the Atascadero Native Tree Ordinance, removal
of the tree will require either planting of seven, 5 -gallon oak trees or a fee of $350 is to
be paid to the City.

Because of the prominence of this dead tree as a landmark feature and use as a traffic
calming device, staff is recommending that a 48 -inch box tree be planted in the center
of the traffic circle to replace the dead tree.
ITEM NUMBER: 2
DATE: 10-19-10
3. Multi -family and Commercial/Roads applicants may plant larger size
specimens to reduce the quantity of replacements required using the
following ratio:
24" box = 2
— 5 gallon locally grown or 15 gallon other trees
36" box = 4
— 5 gallon locally grown or 15 gallon other trees
48" box = 6
— 5 gallon locally grown or 15 gallon other trees
60" box = 6
— 5 gallon locally grown or 15 gallon other trees
This 48 -inch box tree is the equivalent of six 5 -gallon replanting for multi-
family/commercial projects which is based on the City's Native Tree Guidelines and
Standards (Res. 1998-034). It is staff opinion that this is an appropriate substitution
considering the prominence that the site plan gave the original 42 -inch costal live oak.
The remaining 5 -gallon tree to be replanted as mitigation is proposed to be planted in
the rear portion of either lot 20 (APN 049-047-020) or lot 21 (APN 049-047-021). Based
on the approved landscaping plan, staff recommends this location because there is no
other public area or common area that could accommodate this planting. Combined
with the 48 -inch box, this will satisfy the requirements of Section 9-11.105 of the
Atascadero Municipal Code.

ITEM NUMBER: 2
DATE: 10-19-10
FINDINGS:
In considering any tree removal request, at least one of the required findings must be
made. Staff has identified the following finding as appropriate for the application
request.
The tree is dead, diseased or injured beyond reclamation, as certified by a tree
condition report from an Arborist.
CONCLUSIONS:
A certified arborist has determined that the subject 42 -inch DBH Coast Live Oak tree is
in decline and creates a potential hazard for future residents on Atalaya Street. Based
on the arborist's evaluation and above analysis, findings can be made to approve the
requested removal, subject to the required mitigation.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The Commission may approve the project with additional or revised project
conditions.
2. The Commission may deny the project if it is found that the required findings cannot
be made. 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.

Housing Element Annual
Progress Report 2009
(PLN 2006-1133)
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Commission receives and files the attached Housing Element Annual
Progress Report. There is no action required.
DISCUSSION:
Background:
The State of California requires all cities to file an Annual Housing Element Progress
Report to the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The
purpose of the Housing Report is to monitor the implementation of the City's General
Plan Housing Element and progress toward meeting the City's Regional Housing Needs
Allocation (RHNA). The allocations are targets for the production of affordable housing
for various income groups throughout the City.

These regional housing allocations are required to be used by the City when updating
the housing element. They are the basis for assuring that adequate sites and zoning are
available to accommodate at least the number of units allocated. These housing
allocation numbers are not housing unit quotas that the City must achieve within the
time frame of their next housing element update, but housing targets that the City must
provide zoning for and reduce obstacles to development.
City Staff and its consultants have updated the City's Housing Element. This updated
housing element has been reviewed and approved by HCD in 2010 and will be brought
to the Planning Commission for review and recommendation later this year.
Analysis:
The current allocation sets housing needs for a seven year period ending in 2014. As of
December 31, 2009, Atascadero had met approximately 35% of its total housing
allocation. Of these new units, the City issued building permits on eight (8) new
residential units in 2009. Of these units, three (3) were considered moderate income
because of the formula established for 2nd unit calculation. The remaining five (5) units
were considered above moderate or market rate units.
To date, the City has met approximately 10% of the requirement for moderate housing
(9 units) and 12% for low housing (9 units). The City has met approximately 6% (6
units) for very low housing needs for the 2007-2014 reporting period. These
percentages only reflect units that have been issued a building permit and do not reflect
entitled units or the units from the various projects that have been approved.

construction activities in 2008 due to the significant tightening of credit and capital, and
the downturn of the housing market. Many of these larger projects include affordable
housing production requirements as a part of their conditions of approval.
ITEM NUMBER: 3
DATE: 10-19-10
2009 Affordable Housing Production
Calendar year 2009 had a similar drop off in issued building permits compared to 2008.
The downturn of the economy is the key factor in such a dramatic difference between
building permits issued from previous years. Calendar year 2009 saw the worst of the
recession with unemployment peaking, a high number of foreclosures due to the
collapse of the sub -prime market and loss of jobs and other sources of income. Similar
to many national trends, the City was no different and saw little development in new
units due to a lack of demand.
The City issued eight (8) building permits for new construction, and did not rehabilitate
any existing units. Of these eight units, three (3) second units are considered affordable
for the moderate income level group. This group is defined as "affordable" if the cost per
square foot for a typical rent in Atascadero ($1.09/sf based on the San Luis Obispo
Multi -Family Housing Rental Survey) multiplied by the square footage of the second
unit. If the rent falls within an income category, that unit is deemed affordable for that
income type.
The median home price in Atascadero for a new or existing home or condo in 2009
according the California Realtors Association was $279,500. This median home price
gave the ability for moderate income wage earners to become homeowners for the first
time in many years. With the median home price expected to be generally flat in 2010,
the affordability for new or existing homes has been its highest it has been for the first
time in over 10 years.
Conclusion:
The City expects generally the same level of construction activity for 2010. With
significantly fewer units built as compared to 2005-2007. This includes limited
development. However after 2010, staff expects to see an increase in affordable
housing for very low, low, and moderate income units as existing projects that were
approved with the inclusionary policies restart construction.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
