PC Draft Minutes 04/03/07 Page 3 of 13 PUBLIC COMMENT Eric Gobler, applicant's representative, spoke about the project, and made several corrections to the plans the Commission had received. He requested the applicant's original tree preservation easement be considered in lieu of fees and if fees are proposed instead of the preservation easement that the applicant be given the opportunity to discuss the amount with City staff. Mr. Gobler answered questions of the Commission. Henry Curtis, project arborist, answered questions of the Commission. Don Messer, applicant, gave a brief history of the project. Eric Greening explained why some of the assumptions previously used for projects on lots like this must be questioned, and suggested a fresh look at the tree ordinance is in order. Chuck Green suggested transplanting the larger trees or digging them up temporarily and then placing them back on the lot. Ann Colby, neighbor to this property, expressed concern with the amount of trees to be removed and impacted, and the amount of canopy to be lost. She would like the project sent back for re -consideration of the clustering arrangement or to follow staff recommendations with careful monitoring. Sid Bollen spoke about the tree canopy on this lot, the amount of new tree growth and his concerns for fire issues with a canopy of this density. Eric Gobler addressed issues raised by the previous speakers. Chairperson O'Keefe closed the Public Comment period. MOTION: By Vice Chairperson Fonzi and seconded by Commissioner Slane to adopt Resolution PC 2007-0023 to approve the request to remove sixty-two (62) native oak trees subject to the guidelines and mitigation required by the Atascadero Municipal Code and Native Tree Ordinance, and that the applicant meet with staff to decide on the area up above and that it would be at least 50% of the area shown in there and it to be concentrated on the left hand side of the map, and have the fees waived because the applicant is putting in a larger conservation easement. Motion failed 3:4 by a roll -call vote (Heatherington, O'Grady, Marks, O'Keefe opposed) PC Draft Minutes 04/03/07 Page 4 of 13 MOTION: By Chairperson O'Keefe and seconded by Commissioner Marks to adopt Resolution PC 2007-0023 to approve the request to remove sixty-two (62) native oak trees subject to the guidelines and mitigation required by the Atascadero Municipal Code and Native Tree Ordinance, and that the applicant will pay tree mitigation fees and that an open space easement will be created on the bottom half per the maps by staff and that the triangular section on lot 14 be removed and 50% of upper area be removed and the part that stays in would be where the wildlife is. Motion passed 4:3 by a roll -call vote. (Slane, Jack, Fonzi opposed) Commissioner Slane stated for the record that he voted against the motion because this is too intrusive of the property owner and is a burden on him. Commissioner Jack stated he needed more clarification on where the actual line would be drawn. Vice Chairperson Fonzi stated for the record that she voted against the motion because she believes it is punitive to have both the easement and the fees. 3.

CITYWIDE CREEK SETBACK ZONING ORDINANCE AND GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT, PLN -2006-1139 Applicant: City of Atascadero, 6907 El Camino Real, Atascadero, CA 93422, Phone: 461-5000 Project Title: Zone Change 2006-0125, General Plan Amendment 2006-0017, PLN 2006-1139 Creek Setback Zoning Ordinance and General Plan Amendment Project Citywide Location: Project The project consists of a proposed Creek Setback Ordinance to be included in Chapter 4, Site Description: Development Standards of Title 9, Planning and Zoning Ordinance, in the Atascadero Municipal Code. Following General Plan Policy 8.2, revisions to the General Plan are proposed which would replace the interim creek setbacks. The updates are intended to establish a 35 foot setback along Atascadero Creek, Graves Creek, and Boulder Creek reservations, a fifty foot setback along the Salinas River, and a twenty foot setback along all other blue line creeks, wetlands, and significant drainage courses. The Planning Commission would be able to approve exceptions to the creek setbacks in the form of a Minor Conditional Use Permit with a biologist and a geomorphologist report if the project can meet the required findings to show that the creek and surrounding habitat will not be significantly affected. Proposed Based on the initial study prepared for the project, a Negative Declaration is proposed. The proposed Environmental Negative Declaration is available for public review at 6907 EI Camino Real, Community Determination: Development Department from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Commissioner Heatherington stepped down from consideration of this item stating that she was the Director of the Environmental Center when the lawsuit about creek setbacks was filed. Though she has not been an employee of that organization for almost two years and she has no conflict of interest, she stated she will recuse herself for this issue because she thinks it is best for public deliberation for that to happen. Commissioner Heatherington reserved the right to speak as a member of the public. Community Development Director Warren Frace and Assistant Planner Callie Taylor gave the staff report and answered questions of the Commission. PUBLIC COMMENT Richard Bastian stated his concerns because Graves Creek meanders all over his seven acre property and the setback would restrict his ability to enjoy his property. Sid Bowen stated he was in favor of protecting riparian habitats and wetlands but does not think this ordinance has been properly thought through, and that the cost for the studies alone would be too expensive for an owner who wants to improve his property. John Vesnamer commented that the Planning Department process is working already, that decks should not require a CUP, and the focus should really be on degradation of the creeks. PC Draft Minutes 04/03/07 Page 6 of 13 John Shadak spoke about an experience he had with the City regarding placement of a drainage pipe in his back yard and stated there is no longer 35 feet left. He urged the Commission to deny the ordinance. Mike Jackson stated he did not think there had been adequate notification to property owners. He expressed concern regarding all the oversight that has been added to the ordinance, and that the wetlands and drainage courses have not yet been plotted. Maria Hooper read from a prepared statement written by Anthony Doko regarding his concerns over an artificial drainage area on his property and how it would affect plans to improve or build on his property under this proposed ordinance. (Exhibit A) Dorothy Bench spoke in support of preservation and protection of creeks; however she stated an ordinance requiring 35 foot setbacks is divisive and illogical. She thinks if enough land is taken to preclude the owner from reasonable use of his land he must be compensated. Ken Jones was concerned that the City is placing an arbitrary restriction that has no meaning, and that some areas requiring setbacks never experience flooding. Jim Scrivener stated he owns one acre bordering the Salinas River and had received no notification of this hearing. He indicated a 50 foot loss on his property would be a significant loss and is not acceptable. Mark Gibbs, Chairman Governmental Affairs Committee for the Atascadero Association of Realtors, asked the Commission to consider the implications of this ordinance on property rights. Tim McCutchen commented that he did not see any mitigation to property owners for the loss of their properties in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, and was concerned with the setbacks for "significant drainage courses," which are not currently mapped and would affect many property owners who have not been notified. Mitch Culver stated he saw this as an attempt for a land grab and that there currently is a permit process in place that protects the creeks and wetland areas. He asked that this go back and be redesigned as is it unclear how many would be affected by the ordinance. Susie Anderson was concerned with the ramifications of this ordinance to the people in the community who may not understand that the creek reservation line is actually their property line. She asked why the city should usurp private property rights when the lawsuit was based on commercial property not residential. Richard Shannon stated that this ordinance would not encourage redevelopment in the downtown along the creek. His concerns were that this is arbitrary, it takes property PC Draft Minutes 04/03/07 Page 7 of 13 without compensation, and would put a two to three year time frame on processing permits. Chuck Cooper stated this proposal is a gross injustice and is tantamount to taking land from the property owner without just compensation. Don Blaize gave a PowerPoint presentation outlining the negative aspects of this proposed ordinance. (Exhibit B) Chairperson O'Keefe recessed the hearing at 9:41 p.m. Chairperson O'Keefe called the meeting back to order at 9:51 p.m. John Hollenbeck read from a prepared statement stating his belief that further extending the open space easements in the form of creek setbacks is illegal. (Exhibit C) Steven Arnold stated it would be better to enforce existing laws, keep ATV usage down and encourage people to be more responsible stewards of their backyard wetlands. Taking away property rights will anger people and lead to less cooperation. Jeff Van den Eikhof explained that because the creek does not follow the creek reservation line, using it to establish the setback may create a hardship for many property owners. He suggested that the ordinary high water mark shown on site plans should be the point from which setbacks are determined. He questioned who would determine what drainage course is "significant," and also suggested the Commission not apply this to those already in the planning process. Bill Bargues expressed concern that his property would be significantly reduced by this ordinance and questioned how the measurements would be derived as changes in the creeks occur seasonally due to the amount of rainfall and flow of the creek. Brad Taunt stated he is in support of creek preservation but opposed to this ordinance as presented. He was concerned with the arbitrary nature of the 25 to 35 foot number, and suggested there be additional thought and investigation on what properties are negatively affecting the creeks. Lon Allen cited several incidents in Atascadero history that demonstrated the need for building back from the creek, and read a letter from Marge Mackay into the record from the Atascadero Historical Society Board of Directors, stating their support for the creek setback proposal. Glen Horn stated the proposed ordinance would restrict him from developing his property by one-third. He indicated that when he purchased his property he researched the possible restrictions and found none; if he had known about this he would not have purchased the property. PC Draft Minutes 04/03/07 Page 8 of 13 John Galaher asked several questions, stated he considers this a taking, and that for every mile that this takes, 8.5 acres of property will be given up. He said it was the city's job to monitor the creek and have it cleaned up by those who abuse it. Warren Miller stated the city doesn't need any more ordinances to restrict private property; if there are problems in the creek then the city has should charge the guilty party to clean up the creek. Ken Lombardi spoke about his own property and explained that the 35 foot setback would leave him with nothing for a lawn or expansion of his home. Nick Miller spoke about the restrictions existing on his property at this time and was concerned about overlapping ordinances, challenges for weed abatement and privacy issues. Rick Johansen spoke in favor of cleaning up the creek rather than taking property away from owners. He stated the Commission should represent the people in the town and that the majority in Atascadero do not want this. Sue Bagdonis said she saw an ulterior motive in this of trying to get trails and bike paths, which she thought would cause more of a problem by creating impacts to the wildlife and bringing in crime. Ben Richardson spoke about organic architecture and engineering concerns along the creeks. He agreed that there had not been adequate notice, and commented that if 35 feet is taken from commercial properties along the creek, the city will actually be reducing its inventory of commercial properties. Andrew De Villers stated he owns property on both sides of the creek, and increasing the setback would render his property 20% useful, and if he wanted to expand the costs would be so great he could not justify it. Larry Cooks said he owns 5 '/2 acres long both sides of the creek and is in a flood zone so he would not have much property left if this goes through; he stated this was stealing. Chuck Green commented that if the setbacks are increased it would increase the city's responsibility to clean up the creek, which is not happening now. He stated he works hard to keep his property clean and if it is taken he will be unable to use his garden. Bill Schaffer stated the financial magnitude of the problem must be defined; what is the financial impact to property owners, and the dollar value of the land the city is taking possession of. MOTION: By Vice Chairperson Fonzi and seconded by Commissioner Slane to go past 11:00 p.m. PC Draft Minutes 04/03/07 Page 9 of 13 Motion passed 6:0 by a roll -call vote. MOTION: By Vice Chairperson Fonzi and seconded by Commissioner Jack to continue Item #5. Motion passed 4:2 by a roll -call vote. (Slane, Marks opposed) Margie George stated that the notice she received did not mention that the Salinas River properties were involved in the setback issue and fears that those who live along the river may not be aware that their properties will be affected. Jonalee Istenes commented that this ordinance will protect water quality and that the General Plan protects water shed in the city and promotes trails along the creeks. She urged the Commission to err on the side of caution to protect creeks from chemical contamination. Bill Artfeld explained that in other communities these decisions are handled through the development of a water shed plan with public participation. He said if the city takes the right steps it can get past the problems and craft a good ordinance that respects property rights. Julie Bennett stated she was very concerned that this be stopped now, as it is an issue of personal property rights and should not be a way to solve previous litigation issues in the city. John Hollenbeck read a message from his wife into the record in opposition to the ordinance, and asked several questions regarding the proposed setbacks. Ben Richardson asked if the ordinance addresses what could be done within in the setback other than as a building site, and questioned if a specific study has been made about any species that needs environmental protection on the north side of Atascadero Creek from City Hall to the river. Cliff Haggard stated that at one time there were crews of CYA wards that cleared areas to promote good drainage, however now no one can clean up the creek because it is so overgrown. He urged the city to clean up the creeks, not take away property. Pam Heatherington asked the City Attorney to define a "taking", spoke about the impacts to Atascadero Creek, the need to address downstream liability, and determine archeological findings. She commented that creeks, rivers, and streams are a public trust. Joe Montoya said he owns property along the creek and would like to be able to develop it as he has envisioned it, but that he would loose 40% of his property if this passes. He also stated that many of his neighbors had not received notice of this meeting. PC Draft Minutes 04/03/07 Page 10 of 13 Chairperson O'Keefe closed the Public Comment period. City Attorney Patrick Enright and Community Development Director Warren Frace addressed questions raised during Public Comment. Vice Chairperson Fonzi recommended that this go back to staff to have it reworked because it is not uniform; there should be more discussion on whether the setback is measured from the creek reservation or high water mark. Philosophically, she stated she has a problem with this in general. Jurisdictional wetlands must be identified and put before the public, and "significant drainage courses" must be clarified. Commissioner Slane stated he doesn't agree with the 35 foot setbacks and does not think the Salinas River should be included. Commissioner Jack thought 35 feet is too much, 20 feet is all he can support, and he was unsure why the Salinas River setback needs 50 feet rather than 20 or 35. MOTION: By Chairperson O'Keefe and seconded by Commissioner O'Grady to adopt Resolution PC 2007-0019, 2007-0020, and 2007-0021 recommending that the City Council certify proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration 2006-0039 and introduce an amendment for first reading, by title only, to approve General Plan Amendment 2006-0017 and Zone Change 2006-0125 based on findings and with the exceptions for shallow lots and existing structures as written by staff. Motion tied 3:3, recommendation is not to adopt. (Slane, Jack, Fonzi opposed) Commissioner Slane stated for the record that if it was at 20 feet for the setback he might have voted for it. 5.

The proposed project consists of an application for a Conditional Use Permit Amendment to modify a commercial development located on 1.7 acres within the Commercial Tourist Zone. The application also includes a Zone Text Amendment to the conditionally allowed uses within the Commercial Tourist Zone to allow health care services/medical offices. An additional Conditional Use Permit approval will permit medical offices to occupy 3,400 square -feet of the new office building. Two building sites are proposed for the site. Building 1, a 15,000 square -foot office building, is currently under construction. Medical offices are currently proposed to occupy this building. Building 2 is proposed to be an 80 room hotel totaling 51,740 square -feet. Twelve additional native trees are proposed for removal RECOMMENDATION: There are four actions before the Planning Commission: 1) a revised Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared and circulated for review that encompasses all aspects of the proposed project, 2) the hotel and associated site modifications are included in the Conditional Use Permit amendment, 3) the proposed Zone Text Amendment, and 4) a corresponding Conditional Use Permit to allow the proposed health care services use at the project site. Since the projects cannot be segmented under CEQA, all items will be forwarded to City Council for final review and approval. Staff Recommends: 1. Adopt Resolution PC 2007-0024 recommending that the City Council certify proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration 2007-0002 subject to Mitigation Monitoring; and, 2.

Adopt Resolution PC 2007-0027 recommending that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to Conditional Use Permit 2004-0137 (Master Plan of Development) allowing health care services to occupy 3,400 square -feet of tenant space in the office portion of the development, based on findings and subject to conditions of approval. SITUATION AND FACTS: 1. Applicant / Representative: Ted Jacobson, 8055 Cristobal Avenue, Atascadero, CA 93422 JP Patel, 3600 EI Camino Real, Atascadero, CA 93422 2. Project Address: 9700 EI Camino Real, Atascadero, CA 93422 (San Luis Obispo County) APN 056-081-032 3. General Plan Designation: General Commercial (GC) 4. Zoning District: Commercial Tourist (CT) 5. Site Area: 1.715 acres 6. Existing Use: Office building under construction 7. Environmental Status: Mitigated Negative Declaration 2007-0002 DISCUSSION: Background On May 17, 2005, the Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit for a Master Plan of Development on the project site consisting of the main building along the EI Camino Real frontage and two smaller 5,000 square foot building pads toward the rear of the site. On October 4, 2005, the Planning Commission approved an amendment to the master plan of development which changed the parking lot configuration and consolidated the two smaller building pads into one larger pad along the East Front Road frontage. On June 20, 2006, the applicant presented preliminary design concepts to the planning Commission for the proposed hotel. The Planning Commission had concerns regarding the color and materials of the building, landscape potential, and the proposed height. These concerns are analyzed below. Surrounding Land Use and Setting: North: Commercial Professional South: Commercial Professional East: Residential Single-family West: Commercial Professional The project site is within the General Commercial General Plan land use designation and is zoned Commercial Tourist, which allows for the establishment of a commercial development in excess of 10,000 square feet with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit to establish a Master Plan of Development. Project Definition The proposed project consists of an Amendment to a previously approved infill commercial/office development located on EI Camino Real adjacent to the existing Post Office. The revised Master Plan of Development includes an 80 -room hotel along the East Front Road frontage. The applicant is also requesting a number of modifications to the office building currently under construction and the immediate surrounding site. The applicant is also proposing a Zone Text Change to allow "health care services" as a conditionally allowed use in the Commercial Tourist Zone. Included in the proposed Amendment is a request to permit medical offices to occupy 3,400 square -feet of the office building currently under construction. Zone Text Amendment The applicant is proposing a Zone Text Change to establish "Health Care Services" as a conditionally allowed use in the Commercial Tourist Zone. The request to establish medical offices within the proposed office/hotel development is being processed concurrently with this application. The Zone Text Amendment would have to be adopted by City Council for the use to be approved within the development. One of the actions before the Planning Commission at this time is a recommendation to City Council regarding the requested Conditional Use Permit to allow 3,400 square -feet of medical offices/health care services within the previously approved office portion of the project (Resolution PC 2007-0026). Traffic Impacts The applicant has included the proposed health service use in the traffic analysis prepared by Steve Orosz. Based on the size of the requested use and an analysis of uses currently allowed within the development, the traffic engineer has determined that there will be no increased traffic due to the addition of the medical offices. Master Plan of Development Amendment / Establishment of Health Care Services Site Design The proposed site modification will allow for the construction of the proposed 80 -room hotel along East Front Road. The proposed hotel building has been located along the southern property line, adjacent to the existing Post Office. The Amendments and parking configurations allows for safe and efficient access through the site. The resulting site configuration has been reviewed by the Fire Department and meets all minimum code requirements. The proposed medical offices are required to comply with the current Building Code which includes requirements for covered canopies and accessible drop-off areas. There are certain Uniform Building Code exceptions provided for this code requirement. It has not yet been determined if the proposed office building would meet any of the allowed exceptions. Enforcement of the Building Code and any applicable exceptions will occur during building permit review and, should any exterior changes to the building need to occur due to the requested use, a condition has been included to allow staff level approval of the exterior modifications, if any, providing all improvements are consistent with the architectural style of the building (PC 2007-0027, Condition 3). Landscaping: The applicant has worked with staff to provide landscaping around the proposed four- story hotel building. The layout of the proposed building and associated parking creates minimal areas for landscaping throughout the hotel portion of the site. For the hotel portion of the site, the landscaping is estimated to be at 10%-12% of the hotel site area. The applicant has worked with staff to increase landscape opportunities to the front of the proposed hotel and along the East Front Road frontage. In addition, the applicant has provided stamped and colored concrete at the building entrance and interlocking pavers throughout the project site. The applicant is proposing landscaping along the north, south, and west sides of the building. A landscaped planter strip is proposed between the street and the sidewalk adjacent to east Front Road. The proposed center parking areas also includes a pavered pathway and planter areas sized for larger shade trees. Columnar shaped deciduous trees are proposed for the planters adjacent to the building and adjacent to the post office property. Some of the selected trees do not meet the standard requirement for drought tolerant landscaping, however, based on the nature of the landscape areas provided, staff is recommending that the proposed landscape plan be approved as proposed. Staff has conditioned that larger tree be installed to ensure adequate screening and softening of the building (PC 2007-0025, Condition 9). Parking 118 parking spaces are currently proposed for the project site. Based on the addition of all parking required for each individual use, 156 parking spaces are required. The Municipal Code allows the Planning Commission to reduce the overall required parking by 10% and reduce the required parking for the most intensive use by an additional 75% based on a shared peak -hour parking scenario, resulting in a minimum of 83 spaces required. The Planning Commission would need to make the finding that the characteristics of a use or its immediate vicinity do not necessitate the number of parking spaces, type of design, or improvements required by this title and that reduced parking will be adequate to accommodate on the site all parking needs generated by the use. The applicant has submitted a parking and traffic analysis prepared by Steve Orosz that analyzes all proposed uses for the site and assumes shared parking among all tenants. The study determined that, at peak parking hours, assuming 100% occupancy of the hotel, a maximum of 95 would be used. The proposed amended site design provides 118 parking spaces, leaving an excess of 23 spaces during peak parking demand as analyzed by the applicant's parking and traffic consultant. Traffic. The Traffic and Parking Analysis prepared by Steve Orosz analyzed impacts from the proposed development on the surrounding infrastructure. Based on this analysis, the study recommends that the project implement the following mitigation measure. Mitigation Measure 15.a.b.1: Required fair share contributions to the Santa Rosa / 101 interchange improvements (signal and associated improvements) for the hotel portion of the proposed project shall be as follows: a. E. Front Street/ NB 101 On -Ramp Intersection: 17.5% b. W. Front Street/ SB 101 On -Ramp Intersection: 9.7% Fees due shall be required prior to, or currently with, issuance of building permits for the proposed hotel development. Impacts from the proposed office complex are anticipated in the General Plan and no additional fair share payments will be required for the addition of medical office uses. Architecture, Materials, Color The proposed hotel is designed as a four story building with architectural detailing that includes brick accents wrapping the exterior of the building along the first and second stories, awnings located above key accent windows, horizontal banding, darker earth - toned colors, eave bracketing, and trellis accents along East Front Road. A porte cochere is included along the front elevation facing the parking lot. This element includes brick veneer columns and heavy timber elements throughout the roof structure. Signage is proposed on all four elevations. Signs facing the parking lot and Post Office measure 98 square -feet. Signage facing East Front Road and the office building measure 52 square -feet. Based on the height of the signage and scale of the building, the proposed signage is appropriately sized and architecturally compatible with the proposed elevations. The applicant is also proposing a monument sign located at the east Front Road entrance. The proposed monument sign is approximately 30 square -feet. The maximum allowed area for a monument sign is 60 square -feet. The requested sign is under the maximum allowed by code. Staff has conditioned that the sign design be modified to be consistent with the building architecture (PC 2007-0025, Condition 12). FRONT ELEVATION Height The proposed hotel reaches a maximum height of 56 -feet 3.5 -inches. The maximum height allowed without Planning Commission approval is 35 -feet within a Commercial Zone. The Planning Commission reviewed the issue of height at the previous workshop meeting in June and requested that the applicant provide additional information related to the impact of the proposed height from the 101 Freeway and adjacent commercial corridor. The applicant has additional renderings that will be presented at the meeting. 10i '4M SIDE • Native Tree Mitiaation/Preservation 16. Twelve additional native tree removals will be required based on the revised site plan. The tree mitigation chart for the requested trees is shown below. One of the trees (tree #9 — 47"LO), was previously approved for removal with the original CUP application Evergreen Native Trees (inches) Deciduous Native Trees (inches) I Totals Mitigation Requirement req'd tree replacements: 77 five gal trees req'd tree replacements: 0 five gal trees 77 five gal trees Tree Fund Payment: $ 3,866.67 Tree Fund Payment: $ $ 3,866.67 A condition of approval has been included requiring that the applicant pay mitigation fees into the Tree Replacement Fund or provide equivalent re -plantings on site, as required by the Atascadero Native Tree Ordinance (PC 2007-0025, Condition 10). One native tree will remain and is incorporated into the revised site design. The 60" live oak along the East Front Road frontage will be incorporated into a planter area adjacent to 4 parking spaces. The Arborist Report recommends eliminating the 4 parking spaces to ensure the health of the tree. Staff does not recommend reducing the parking beyond what is requested at this time. The arborist has stated that the parking spaces could remain with certain conditions related to their construction including maintaining the spaces at current grade and utilizing gravel instead of paving beneath the dripline. Staff has concerns about the use of loose gravel in a commercial project, thus staff has conditioned that he applicant utilize turf block for the four parking spaces and that no excavation beneath existing grade occur without approval for the project arborist (PC 2007-0025, Condition 8). Modifications to the Office Building and Site Improvements The applicant is requesting the following modifications to the office building and adjacent site improvements: dbh notes dbh notes 1 7 -inches LO 1 2 6 -inches TOY 2 3 6 -inches TOY 3 4 6 -inches TOY 5 10 -inches SYC 6 12 -inches VO 7 6 -inches TOY 8 17 -inches LO 9 47 -inches LO 10 6 -inches TOY 11 70 -inches LO 12 39 -inches LO 20 Total 232 -inches Total 0 -inches 232 -inches Mitigation Requirement req'd tree replacements: 77 five gal trees req'd tree replacements: 0 five gal trees 77 five gal trees Tree Fund Payment: $ 3,866.67 Tree Fund Payment: $ $ 3,866.67 A condition of approval has been included requiring that the applicant pay mitigation fees into the Tree Replacement Fund or provide equivalent re -plantings on site, as required by the Atascadero Native Tree Ordinance (PC 2007-0025, Condition 10). One native tree will remain and is incorporated into the revised site design. The 60" live oak along the East Front Road frontage will be incorporated into a planter area adjacent to 4 parking spaces. The Arborist Report recommends eliminating the 4 parking spaces to ensure the health of the tree. Staff does not recommend reducing the parking beyond what is requested at this time. The arborist has stated that the parking spaces could remain with certain conditions related to their construction including maintaining the spaces at current grade and utilizing gravel instead of paving beneath the dripline. Staff has concerns about the use of loose gravel in a commercial project, thus staff has conditioned that he applicant utilize turf block for the four parking spaces and that no excavation beneath existing grade occur without approval for the project arborist (PC 2007-0025, Condition 8). Modifications to the Office Building and Site Improvements The applicant is requesting the following modifications to the office building and adjacent site improvements: 1. Modification of condition requiring smoother stucco texture As currently conditioned, the office building is required to utilize a smooth stucco texture or similar light sand finish. The conditioned texture was included in the architect's plans and compliments the detailing of the Mediterranean Architectural Style. The applicant is proposing a rougher knock -down texture which is contrary to the previous project approval. If the Planning Commission wishes to amend the condition for smoother stucco texture, a condition should be added to Resolution PC 2007-0025. -- ------ l� � a s = �, - 'ds �s�s"a -�� .ems �..e� t —J��•e `.a -_ — -' 9 -- agtimdkm we B,, t 2. Addition of retaining wall along EI Camino Real Due to the grade difference between the sidewalk and the parking lot, the applicant is requesting approval of a retaining wall along the EI Camino Real frontage. The existing approved planter area is 8 -feet wide. While final grading plans have not been submitted at this time, the applicant estimates the wall to be approximately 4 -feet tall. Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission approve this Amendment with conditions that the wall be stucco to match the office building and that the street trees remain as previously approved with the addition of larger shrubs and vines to the landscape planter (PC 2007-0025, Condition 14). General Plan Consistency The proposed project is consistent with the following General Plan Land Use Element Policies: Goal LOC 3. Transform the existing El Camino Real "strip" into a distinctive, attractive and efficient commercial, office and industrial park area which can provide for the long- term economic viability of the community. Land Use Program 1.1.7: "Within the Urban Core encourage infill development or revitalization or reuse of land already committed to urban development where utilities and public services exist. Land Use Policy 2.1: "Ensure that new development is compatible with existing and surrounding neighborhoods". Goal LOC 13. Provide for a sound economic base to sustain the City's unique character by establishing a range of employment and business opportunities and generate sufficient revenue to support adequate levels of public services, and environmental, social and educational quality. Policy 13.3.1: Promote tourism and travel industries Policy 13.3.2: Encourage hotel, conference, and resort development and protect potential sites from conversion to other uses Policy 13.3.3: Update and maintain the Zoning Ordinance to allow additional uses in the Tourist Commercial zoning district In staff's opinion the proposed hotel project and expanded use within the CT Zoning designation is consistent with the goals and policies of the Land Use Element. The project will provide 15,000 square feet of commercial space and an 80 -room hotel located adjacent to Highway 101 and adjacent to the EI Camino Real corridor. As conditioned, the project incorporates a variety of materials and design features that are consistent with the character of Atascadero. All traffic impacts will be mitigated based on the recommendations of the traffic engineer and all environmental impacts have been reviewed and are included in the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration. Findings Zone Text Change 1. The zone change is consistent with General Plan policies and all other applicable ordinances and policies of the City. 2. Amendment of the zoning ordinance will provide for the orderly and efficient use of lands where such development standards are applicable. 3. The zone change will not, in itself, result in significant environmental impacts. Conditional Use Permit Two Conditional Use Permit requests are before the Planning Commission. The findings have been broken into two sections to address each request individually. Hotel / Master Plan of Development Amendment: 1. The proposed project or use is consistent with the General Plan and the City's Appearance Review Manual. Staff Comment: The proposed hotel development is consistent with the General Plan as noted above and is consistent with the Appearance review manual, incorporating dark earth toned colors and architectural features consistent with the Character of Atascadero. 2. The proposed project or use satisfies all applicable provisions of the Title (Zoning Ordinance) including the Planned Development Ordinance. Staff Comment: As conditioned, the project satisfies all conditional use permit and zoning code provisions for a commercial development. 3. The establishment, and subsequent operation or conduct of the use will not, because of the circumstances and conditions applied in the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of the general public or persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the use, or be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity of the use. Staff Comment: The proposed commercial development will not be detrimental to the general public or working persons health, safety, or welfare. 4. That the proposed project or use will not be inconsistent with the character or the immediate neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development. Staff Comment: The project has been designed to enhance the appearance along East Front Road and the Highway 101 corridor with high quality architecture. A larger scale commercial development is compatible with existing development along EI Camino Real and is an appropriate use for the 101 corridor. 5. That the proposed use or project will not generate a volume of traffic beyond the safe capacity of all roads providing access to the project, either existing or to be improved in conjunction with the project, or beyond the normal traffic volume of the surrounding neighborhood that would result from full development in accordance with the Land Use Element. Staff Comment: The proposed project and use is consistent with the traffic projections and road improvements anticipated within the General Plan. The project has been conditioned to pay their fair share of traffic related improvements to the Santa Rosa / 101 interchange. Specifically, the project will contribute to signal improvements to the on- and off -ramps adjacent to the Santa Rosa overpass. Establishment of 3,400 square -feet of "health care services": 1. The proposed project or use is consistent with the General Plan and the City's Appearance Review Manual. Staff Comment: The use is consistent with the General Commercial designation of the General Plan and General Plan which calls for expanded uses in the Commercial Tourist Zone. 2. The proposed project or use satisfies all applicable provisions of the Title (Zoning Ordinance). Staff Comment: with the approval of the proposed Zone Text Amendment, the use will be compatible with all provisions of the Zoning Ordinance. 3. The establishment, and subsequent operation or conduct of the use will not, because of the circumstances and conditions applied in the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of the general public or persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the use, or be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity of the use. Staff Comment: The proposed use will not be detrimental to the general public or working persons health, safety, or welfare. 4. That the proposed project or use will not be inconsistent with the character or the immediate neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development. Staff Comment: The proposed use is consistent with the existing and allowed uses along EI Camino Real. 5. That the proposed use or project will not generate a volume of traffic beyond the safe capacity of all roads providing access to the project, either existing or to be improved in conjunction with the project, or beyond the normal traffic volume of the surrounding neighborhood that would result from full development in accordance with the Land Use Element. Staff Comment: The proposed use is consistent with the traffic projections and road improvements anticipated within the General Plan. Shared Parking Reduction 1. The characteristics of a use or its immediate vicinity do not necessitate the number of parking spaces, type of design, or improvements required by this title and that reduced parking will be adequate to accommodate on the site all parking needs generated by the use. Based on staff's analysis in the preceding sections, it appears that all of the required findings for approval of the requested Zone Text Amendment and both Conditional Use Permit applications can be made. Proposed Environmental Determination A revised Mitigated Negative Declaration and Initial Study has been circulated to interested agencies and made available for public review. The amended environmental review determined that there would be no impact with the incorporation of mitigation measures outlined in the document and included in the attached resolutions. A resolution is included for the Planning Commission to recommend certification of the proposed document to City Council. Additional clarification is needed for two of the proposed mitigation measures. Mitigation measure 15.a.b.1 should be clarified to state that no additional fair share fees will be associated with the additional medical offices. And Mitigation measure 15.f.1 should be clarified to read that the 80 -room hotel is included in the maximum intensities allowed for the site. The amended Mitigation measures are included in the final resolutions. Conclusion The proposed Zone Text Change, Master Plan of Development Amendment to allow an 80 -room hotel, and establishment of 3,400 square -feet of health care services is consistent with the General Plan and Atascadero Municipal Code, as analyzed within this staff report.

The exhibit below identifies Parcel 1 (currently developed), Parcel 2 (currently vacant), and the Parcel 3 (proposed Tastee Freez Drive Thru). There is one native oak tree on Parcel 2 that is proposed to remain, and will not be impacted by the development of the proposed drive thru restaurant on Parcel 3. Parking lot connects through commercial center & back to EI Camino Real _J - - - - - -11411 - ------ -- ■_ Parcel 1, Parcel 3, previously -�_ s\ i E A 51T F Rp M T \\1+ \\ \\� \\ `\\i \\\ \\\ currently developed ^`_�—�,_„_ e �'�` proposed with -- CUP for drive thru restaurant TPM 2006-0085, approved August, 2006 Appearance Review Site Design The site plan has been designed to meet the requirements of the above-mentioned parcel map conditions, and the Atascadero Municipal Code. The restaurant building is oriented towards the Montecito Street frontage and the parking lot, with the drive thru facing East Front Road. East Front Road meets Montecito Avenue at the south west corner, and then slopes uphill to the Highway 101 on-ramp. The slope acts as a visual buffer between the drive thru lane and the travel lane on East Front, eliminating any interference between headlights at the drive thru and on coming traffic. A pedestrian sidewalk is included on the site plan which wraps behind the drive through at the bottom of the slope and connects with the adjacent commercial parcels. At the request of Planning Commission, the applicant has included two striped pedestrian access paths through the parking lot in front of the restaurant to aide in traffic calming and provide safe pedestrian access through the parking area. An outdoor patio has been included in the redesign of the site plan since the previous hearing. Six tables have been included along the front of the building adjacent to the parking area. As seen in the parking calculations below, the existing commercial center provides additional unused parking which can adequately serve the added six customer tables. The proposed parking lot is located off Montecito Avenue and connects with the parking areas for the rest of the center. The site plan includes 23 on-site parking spaces. The Zoning Ordinance requires 34 parking spaces to serve the restaurant. This includes parking spaces for employees, indoor, and the new outdoor tables. The shared parking and access easement which recorded with the previous Parcel Map allows the restaurant to share these parking spaces. The parking calculation shown below identify how many spaces in the center are reserved for the existing and future buildings on site. Three commercial buildings have been constructed in the Commercial center to date. One vacant pad remains between the proposed Tastee Freeze and K -Man bicycle shop. The Tentative Parcel Map for the site reflects a building the same size as the K - man bicycle shop (2744 sq. ft.) to be constructed at a later time. Commercial center parking is calculated at 1 space for each 300 sq. ft. of commercial space. 63 spaces in the center (total) 9522 ECR (one story building fronting EI Camino): 1464 sq. ft.= 5 spaces 9520 ECR (one story building facing parking lot): 1464 sq. ft = 5 spaces K -man (two story building located at the bend): 2744 sq. ft.= 9 spaces vacant site between Tastee Freeze & K -man 2744 sq. ft.= 9 parking spaces. Total: 28 spaces reserved for 4 buildings in the center (not including Tastee Freez) Additional parking remaining on site: 35 spaces As shown above, the shared parking on site provides the code required parking for the proposed Tastee Freez. The Tastee Freez requires 34 parking spaces, with 35 spaces available. The applicant on the proposed project has also included a bicycle rack in front of the new restaurant which may substitute for one parking space. This lowers the required parking for the proposed Tastee Freez restaurant to 33 spaces, which is available within the center. Full frontage improvements were conditioned as a part of the previous lot split done on the site. The applicant will be required to comply with all of the conditions of TPM 2006- 0085 for these improvements (CUP Condition 11.) The site plan currently proposed is consistent with the approved Tentative Parcel Map with exception of the drive thru. Although the owner has begun the site improvements for TPM 2006-0085, approval of the proposed project would require modifications to those improvements. Improvements are anticipated for the Santa Rosa/East Front/ Highway 101 interchange, including a new traffic signal at this location. As a new commercial business benefiting from the improved access at this freeway intersection, the applicant will be required to pay a fair share portion of the costs to improve this intersection (CUP Condition 28, Mitigation Measure 15.a.b.1.) ° l wONO Big Striped pedestrian access across parking lot o prig ° Architecture. Materials, Color The applicant has made substantial modifications to proposed elevations since the last Planning Commission hearing. The color and materials have been changed to include an earth toned Mediterranean color scheme consistent with the surrounding commercial center. Stone veneer has been included along the base of the building and half way up the height of the tower elements. The awnings have been change from the bright red to a deep terra cotta color fabric. A full size color board is available at City Hall for review. Traditional Mediterranean roof detailing has been added with the rafters under the tile roofs. The red tile diamond accents which were previously proposed have been replaced with Mediterranean style details, including iron accents and traditional tile accents. Goose neck lighting has been included to give a soft wash of light over the new building details. The trellis features are painted a neutral color, consistent with the earth toned color scheme. In addition, the tower elements have been brought forward 18 -inches to give dimension to the facades. The entry tower has also been widened and raised in height to give a more substantial look these elements. Conditions have been included in the attached resolution to include slight modifications to the paint colors, subject to staff approval. Additional traditional detailing to the rafters below the tile roofs is also conditioned. The tile roofs will be consistent with the tile used through out the center. The windows, doors, and lighting fixtures are conditioned to be a darker bronze color. (Conditions 15 through 23.) At the pervious hearing, the Commission discussed using stone veneer on the tower elements. The applicant has raised the stone veneer on the tower element up to the top of the windows to give proportion to the tower elements. The applicant has some concerns about any additional stone competing with the awnings if the stone is raised any higher up the building. Staff is not conditioning the veneer to be raised at this time, however, this may be conditioned if the Commission finds this to be necessary. Staff believes that the applicant has addressed all of issues mentioned at the previous hearing and has created a superior architectural design. The proposed architectural elevations are consistent with the appearance review requirements for the City of Atascadero and are consistent with the style of the surrounding commercial center. Proposed Front Elevation Facing Montecito Avenue Previous Submittal Front Elevation Facing Montecito Avenue Proposed Parking Lot Entrance Elevation Previous Submittal Parking Lot Entrance Elevation Landscape Design The preliminary landscape plan has been designed for compatibility with the surrounding commercial development. The proposal includes landscape screening with decorative shrubs between the proposed drive-thru lane and the adjacent sidewalks. Shade trees are provided throughout the parking lot and street trees will be provided 30 - feet on -center along Montecito Avenue. Landscape planters are included through out the parking lot and the trash enclosure has been screened with plantings, consistent with the Zoning Ordinance requirements. A condition has been included to include native and drought tolerant plant species. Slight modifications to the plant species will be made and checked at the time of building permits. The proposed landscape plan and palette, as conditioned, meets appearance review requirements. Signage The applicant is proposing six main building signs, two on each of the front and drive thru elevations (3 elevations with signage.) Since the applicant will be co -locating with both a Tastee Freez and a Wienerschnitzel in this building, signage is proposed for both businesses, included a wall sign for each. One freeway pole sign is proposed at the west corner of the lot with the Tastee Freez logo. A recessed red L.E.D. light band is proposed along the roof line. Additional menu signs are also included. The Sign Ordinance allows for 125 square feet of signage on a commercially zoned property, plus one freeway sign, up to 150 square feet, unless additional signage is approved by Planning Commission. The applicant has made some reductions to the previous submittal, removing some of the menu signs and directional signs. The applicant is now requesting a total of 191 square feet of signage on site (not including the freeway pole sign,) which is a request for 66 square feet of additional signage at Planning Commission's discretion. Condition #12 is included in the attached resolution to allow the 66 square feet of additional signage if approved by Planning Commission; the condition would need to be removed if Planning Commission denies this request. The LED lights proposed with the last submittal have been modified as to staff's request and are now proposed within a channel, eliminating the direct light source. The LED light will be reflected within the channel, created more a glow effect, rather than a direct light source. The proposed freeway pole sign requires an Administrative Use Permit for approval, which in this case is being referred to Planning Commission as part of the Conditional Use Permit. The Sign Ordinance states that in addition to the 125 square feet of building signage, "sites located adjacent to a Highway 101 frontage road may be authorized, through Administrative Use Permit approval, to use have a pole mounted freeway oriented sign with an area not to exceed one (1) square foot of sign area per lineal foot of freeway oriented building frontage up to one hundred fifty (150) square feet, whichever is less. Pole mounted signs shall not exceed fifty (50) feet in height or the minimum height necessary for effective visibility." Flag test were done on the site since the last submittal to see how tall the sign would need to be to be seen while on the freeway. As a result of the flag test, the applicant has modified the pole sign and is now proposing a 150 square foot freeway pole sign at 65 -feet in height. As seen in the photos below, a 65 -foot sign would be the minimum height necessary to be seen before the freeway exit. Several large trees are located along the freeway frontage which would block a 50 -foot sign. In addition, the project site is located at a lower elevation than the freeway, behind the freeway off ramp and frontage road located above. Due to the flag test results, the applicant is requesting the 65 -foot tall sign, subject to Planning Commission approval. Condition # 13 has been included to allow the freeway pole sign as proposed; Planning Commission would need to modify this condition to approve a smaller sign. 65' height clears trees nU1 U i LU �UuLI View of 65' pole sign at freeway exit View of 65' pole sign from northbound freeway (sign which is raised is 150 sq. ft.) A - . View of 65' pole sign before Santa Rosa freeway exit As discussed at the pervious hearing, the pole sign is proposed at 30 -inches between sign faces in order to allow for maintenance and access to the light source within the sign. At the previous hearing, it was suggested that the applicant could possibly black out the background of the sign to address any concerns regarding light pollution. The applicant has found that blacking out portions of the sign would not be feasible. However, the applicant has suggested that they could lower the total wattage used for the sign by 25% of the standard. The project has not been conditioned with any specific lighting requirements at this time, but this may be added by Planning Commission. The flowing references have been included as precedents for pole signs which have previously been approved with in the City. Based on previously approved signs, there is not a relationship between the pole sign area and the actual building frontage, but rather the signs have been approved in relation to total site frontage facing the freeway: 1. The Chevron station at 8955 Montecito was measured by the Tastee Freez applicant when the flag tests were being completed. They found that the existing Chevron sign is approximately 204 square feet and 50 -feet feet in height. There are no records on file at the City which show approval of this sign, it would be considered existing non -conforming. The site plan has 55 lineal feet of freeway oriented building frontage, and a much larger site frontage. 2. The KFC at 4500 San Palo was approved for a freeway pole sign with an AUP in October of 1999. The sign was approved at 40 -feet tall and 112 sq. ft. sign. KFC has about 78 lineal feet of freeway oriented building frontage, and a much larger site frontage. General Plan Consistency The proposed project is consistent with the following General Plan Land Use Element Policies: Land Use Program 1.1.7: "Within the Urban Core encourage infill development or revitalization or reuse of land already committed to urban development where utilities and public services exist. Land Use Policy 2.1: "Ensure that new development is compatible with existing and surrounding neighborhoods". Implementing General Plan programs requires appearance review of architectural design, materials and color, and landscaping to improve the appearance along street frontages, and incorporate architectural themes into the site and building design. The proposed drive-through restaurant is now consistent with the goals and policies of the Land Use Element, and the General Plans goals in relation to architectural design and compatibility. Findings Conditional Use Permit A Conditional Use Permit is required for all drive-thru restaurants. The Conditional Use Permit process provides the opportunity for the public and the Planning Commission to review the specifics of land use proposals, such as appropriateness of use, architectural design, site design, landscape, signage, and specific standards of the Zoning Ordinance. The Planning Commission must make the following five findings to approve a Conditional Use Permit: 1. The proposed project or use is consistent with the General Plan and the City's Appearance Review Manual. Staff Comment: The use is consistent with the General Commercial designation of the General Plan and General Plan Land Use Element Policy 1.1.7. and Land Use Element Policy 2.1. 2. The proposed project or use satisfies all applicable provisions of the Title (Zoning Ordinance.) Staff Comment: As conditioned, the project satisfies the conditional use permit and zoning code provisions for a commercial development, including the appearance review requirements. 3. The establishment, and subsequent operation or conduct of the use will not, because of the circumstances and conditions applied in the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of the general public or persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the use, or be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity of the use. Staff Comment: The proposed commercial development will not be detrimental to the general public or working persons health, safety, or welfare. 4. That the proposed project or use will not be inconsistent with the character or the immediate neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development. Staff Comment: The site plan and landscape plan are consistent with the existing commercial center. With the recent revisions, the project would provide high quality architecture to enhance the East Front and Montecito Street frontages. 5. That the proposed use or project will not generate a volume of traffic beyond the safe capacity of all roads providing access to the project, either existing or to be improved in conjunction with the project, or beyond the normal traffic volume of the surrounding neighborhood that would result from full development in accordance with the Land Use Element. Staff Comment: The proposed project and use, as conditioned, is consistent with the traffic projections and road improvements anticipated within the General Plan. Based on staff's analysis in the preceding sections, all of the required findings for approval of a Conditional Use Permit can be made. Proposed Environmental Determination A Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration was circulated to public agencies and interested members of the public on February 28, 2007. The environmental analysis identified concerns regarding potential impacts to aesthetics, noise, and traffic. Mitigation measures pertaining to these resources are included. It is the opinion of staff that the combination of mitigation measures and conditions of approval will reduce any potential environmental impacts to a level of insignificance. 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. Staff is recommending that the Commission certify Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration 2007-0001. Conclusion The proposed project represents an infill commercial project within the Commercial Tourist Zone. Staff has worked with the applicant to advance the franchise prototype design to a level of appearance that is consistent with Atascadero Appearance Review standards. Extensive modifications have been made to the architectural design of the elevations to create a building consistent with the surrounding center. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the proposed Conditional Use Permit, subject to conditions. ALTERNATIVES 1. The 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. 2. The Commission may approve the project with modifications to the project and/or conditions of approval for the project. 3. The Commission may deny the project. The parcel would retain its designation of Commercial Tourist, and a drive-thru would not be allowed. The Commission should specify the reasons for denial of the project and make an associated finding with such action.

Environmental Status: Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration 2007-0003 Background Surrounding Land Use and Setting: North: Residential Multi -family East: Residential Multi -family South: Residential Multi -family West: Commercial Retail / Public l� f A / _------------ ------------------ 04- Q -04- Proposed Project Sites The project site is within the Medium Density Residential General Plan land use designation and is zoned Residential Multi -Family -10, which allows for a maximum density of 10 units per acre. The properties within the existing residential neighborhood are developed with a combination of single- and multiple -family projects. The existing home is designated as a Colony Home and is proposed to remain. The project came before the Planning Commission on July 18, 2006 for preliminary review by the Planning Commission. Staff noted concerns regarding impacts to native trees, the design of the units, exiting onto Rosario Ave, and the setback off of Palma Ave. These issues are discussed below. ANALYSIS: The proposed site plan has been designed to meet the requirements of the Atascadero Municipal Code and the appearance review requirements of the General Plan. Seven new detached hillside units are proposed on the project site along Palma and Rosario Avenues and the existing Colony Home located off of Ridgeway Court is proposed to remain. Proposed new homes range in size from 1500 square feet to 2300 square feet. Lot sizes range from 3155 square feet to 22,407 square feet. The proposed homes along Palma are 3 -stories in height. As a Planned Development, the Planning Commission must find the project provides high quality architectural, landscape, and site design to warrant the granting of special development standards. Appearance Review Site Plan and Circulation The proposed project includes seven detached units and one existing Colony Home. Each of the new units will take access either off Rosario Ave or Palma Ave. The Ridgeway Court frontage will remain as existing, with the exception of required frontage improvements, to maintain the historic character of the existing home and preserve character defining site elements such as an existing rock wall and historic carriage house. Three concerns were discussed at the July Planning Commission meeting related to the layout of the units and the proposed site plan. Staff presented concerns related to tree impacts and minimized setbacks off of Palma Avenue for discussion. The Planning Commission also discussed concerns regarding vehicles backing out of the driveways onto Rosario Avenue. The following summarizes each issue with the Planning Commission direction given and applicant response. Native Tree Impacts and setback along Palma Ave: The existing hillside area adjacent to Palma Ave contains 19 native trees ranging in diameter from 17 -inches to 88 -inches dbh. Due to the historic nature of the existing home, the development area of the site is limited to the more sloped areas of the property. The Planning Commission directed the applicant to position the units in a way that aimed to preserve the healthiest trees. In addition, the Planning Commission recommended further reducing the setback along Palma Avenue to allow for fewer impacts to the hillside. The applicant redesigned the units to reduce the depth of the units and moved the units closer to Palma Avenue to minimize impacts to the existing native trees. In addition, the units closest to the corner of Rosario and Palma were designed to avoid the need to remove two native oak trees (26 -inch Live Oak and 36 -inch Valley Oak). The applicant maintained the 3 -story design which minimizes the building footprint and, thus, the area of disturbance necessary to construct the units. The proposed setback along Palma Avenue is a minimum of 5 -feet from the existing right-of-way for the garage level with the units stepping back at the upper floors. Because of newer ADA requirements, the applicant will be required to construct the sidewalk on the private property side of the existing right-of-way. This design allows a path of travel unobstructed by the required driveway approaches. This further reduces the setback along Palma Ave to less than 2 -feet from the sidewalk. An offer of dedication is proposed over the sidewalk. Staff is recommending an alternative to the proposed sidewalk design as discussed below in the frontage improvement section. Driveways along Rosario Avenue: The applicant redesigned the units along Rosario Avenue to provide adequate turn- around area to allow vehicles to forward exit onto Rosario Avenue. The turn -around area is provided both for the garage and guest parking spaces. Parking Each new unit contains a 2 -car garage and 1 guest parking space on-site. The Colony Home site will remain as it currently exists today. Because the applicant redesigned the units to decrease the setback and impacts to the hillside, the guest parking required of most standard Planned Development Overlay Zones (1 space per unit) was relocated adjacent to the units. The applicant's current proposal includes 2 guest parking spaces between units 7 and 8, and two spaces between units 5 and 6 with a consolidated landscape area between units 6 and 7. The applicant is proposing to construct the guest parking spaces of pavers or stamped and colored concrete. Staff has concerns that the streetscape along Palma Avenue is hardscape dominant under this scenario and not enough opportunities exist for landscaping along the Palma Avenue frontage. The applicant is aware of staff's concerns and has prepared 2 alternative site configurations that maintain the reduced footprint and setback but modify the location of the guest parking spaces. As a custom Planned Development Overlay, the Planning Commission has the discretion to allow a modified parking scenario. The applicant has included the design alternatives at the end of the Planning Commission packet for your review. The alternative site plans are analyzed below: Alternative A: Current proposal discussed above. Alternative 8: The applicant separated the guest parking spaces so that 1 space is between each of the units fronting Palma Ave. The scenario increases the amount of landscaping between each unit. Alternative C: The applicant is proposing to eliminate guest parking for units 5 through 8 and construct improvements on the opposite side of Palma Ave along the rear frontage of the City's police station to increase the on -street parking opportunities along Palma Avenue as a whole. While on -street parking does not technically count towards the counted number of parking spaces for a project, the Planning Commission has the ability under the custom Planned Development Overlay Zone #29 to approve this option. It is the applicant's opinion that, due to the limited number of residences off of Palma Avenue and the likelihood of the police station site being redeveloped and required to construct full frontage improvements, the proposed improvements would benefit the proposed development and fulfill the guest parking need. The Planning Commission can approve any of these alternatives under the provisions of the custom Planned Development Overlay zone. Based on the landscaping for the project and the constraints of site development, staff is recommending that the Planning commission consider option "c" with the following modification: �. Condition the project that the applicant increase on -street parking opportunities rather than approve the exhibit as presented. Staff is not in support of widening the opposite side of Palma Avenue based on current slope conditions. Eliminating the guest parking between the units would provide two on -street parking spaces in front of the proposed units, creating a reduction in standard parking requirements of two spaces. Option "c" is not included in the attached resolutions. If the Planning commission wishes to approve option "c", option "b" or any combination thereof, the Planning Commission should state that in their motion and include any additional conditions. Frontage Improvements: Curb, gutter, and sidewalk are required along all frontages of the project site including Ridgeway Court. Due to the location of the existing stone wall, the frontage improvements have been slightly modified to allow these improvements to remain. Staff is recommending and has conditioned that he Palma Avenue frontage include a rolled concrete curb up to lot 5 and location of the sidewalk at the edge of the existing right-of- way. Architecture. Materials. and Color The proposed units range in size from 1500 square feet to 2300 square feet. The units along Palma Ave are 3 -storied in height. Unit 3 located along Rosario Avenue also includes a third story conditioned floor within the apex of the roofline. During the July meeting, the Planning Commission directed the applicant to enhance the colony style architecture of the proposed units and add detailing to compliment the existing Colony Home and surrounding historic properties. Units 2, 3, and 4 include porches facing Rosario Avenue that include stylized columns, a variety of siding materials including horizontal and vertical siding, stone veneer, and shake accents. In addition, each unit includes double hung windows and exposed roof rafter tails. Each garage is designed as a side -loading garage to minimize the appearance of the garage doors from Rosario Avenue. Unit 4, located on the corner of Rosario and Palma Avenues is designed with the garage facing Palma Avenue. The applicant's original design presented in July included a design with a wrapped porch at the corner, however, in designing the site to minimize impacts to native trees and prevent backing out onto Rosario, the applicant could not maintain the original design concept. The applicant did tilt the garage and added an additional porch feature along the side of the garage facing Rosario Avenue to minimize the appearance of the garage. Units 5, 6, 7, and 8 area designed as 3 -story hillside homes that will be built into the hill. From the front the unit will appear as 3 -stories, however, from the rear, the unit will appear as 2 -stories. The applicant has varied the fagade of each unit providing an individual character for each residence by differing the roof elements and styles as well as the porch elements. The units have been designed with two single -car garages to minimize the bulk of the garage doors. The garage level is proposed to be clad in stone veneer to reduce the perceived height of the units and reflect the rock wall that will be replaced by the units and the associated improvements. These units also contain a variety of materials and colony style details. Landscape Design The preliminary landscape plan has been designed to retain existing mature native oak trees. Street trees are provided along Palma and Rosario Avenues with medium scale trees included in landscape planters adjacent to the sidewalk along Palma Avenue. Proposed landscaping includes drought tolerant shrubs and accent plants with minimized turf areas. Staff has added conditions of approval to ensure high quality landscaping along the Palma Avenue frontage and integration with proposed retaining walls. Native Tree Mitigation/Preservation A tree removal application for 8 native trees is included with the proposed development, 4 Toyons, 2 Valley oaks, and 2 Live oaks. A condition of approval has been included requiring the applicant to pay mitigation fees into the Tree Replacement Fund or provide equivalent re -plantings on site, as required by the Atascadero Native Tree Ordinance and as shown in the following chart (Condition CUP 20). Evergreen Native Trees (inches) Deciduous Native Trees (inches) Totals dbh notes dbh notes 1 4 -inches 1 24 -inches 2 4 -inches 2 22 -inches 3 30 -inches 3 4 5 -inches 4 5 5 -inches 5 6 5 -inches 6 Total 53 -inches Total 46 -inches 99 -inches Mitigation Requirement req'd tree replacements: 18 five gal trees req'd tree replacements: 31 five gal trees 48 five gal trees Proposed Replanting 0 five gal trees Proposed Replanting 0 five gal trees 0 five gal trees 0 box trees (24") 0 box trees (24") 0 box trees (24") Remaining Mitigation 18 five gal trees Remaining Mitigation 31 five gal trees 48 five gal trees Tree Fund Payment: $ 883.33 Tree Fund Payment: $ 1,533.33 $ 2,416.67 A condition of approval has also been included to require the applicant to pay a mitigation deposit for all trees impacted 40% or greater. Under this scenario, a deposit will be required for 2 trees. Site Drainage Site drainage will be piped to underground detention basins located under the guest parking spaces along the Palma Avenue frontage and within the driveway area of Lot 4. Easements will be required to be recorded on the final map to ensure continued maintenance of the shared facilities. Wastewater Sanitary sewer will be connected to existing facilities in Rosario and Palma Avenues. Fiscal Impact Based on findings from the Taussig Study, revenue from new residential development including property tax revenues, vehicle licensing fees, sales taxes, and other revenues are insufficient to cover the maintenance and emergency services costs of new development. Based on the revenue projections from the Taussig Study, the City has developed standard conditions of approval for new development projects that require the cost of maintenance and emergency services to be funded by the project through a combination of road assessment districts, landscape and lighting districts and community facilities districts (Conditions 17 and 18). Inclusionary and Workforce Housing The City Council has implemented an interim Inclusionary Affordable Housing Program to include a fixed percentage of units within residential developments that require a legislative approval to be reserved as deed restricted affordable units or for an in -lieu fee to be paid. A condition of approval has been added to ensure this requirement is met (Conditions 14 and 15). Project Benefits One of the required findings for approval of a planned development rezone is the project must "offer certain redeeming features to compensate for the requested modification." The table shown below outlines the Council policy on Planned Development benefits. In order to approve this project, the Planning Commission must find that the project offers all of the tier 1 benefits to qualify for a Planned Development project. In addition, staff notes that this project does include preservation of a historic Colony Home, which is listed as a Tier 2 benefit. PD Location Tier 1 Benefits Tier 2 Benefits Inside of Urban Core a) Affordable / Workforce Housing a) Pocket Parks in larger projects b) High Quality Architectural Design b) Trails / Walkways for Pedestrian PD 25 c) High Quality Landscape Design Connectivity d) Buffering between Urban and c) Historic Preservation Suburban zones (large lot sizes, increased setbacks, landscape buffers, etc.) e) Higher density to meet Housing Element goals Tentative Tract Map An 8 -lot Tentative Tract Map (TTM 2006-0089) is proposed as part of the project consistent with the proposed Master Plan of Development and proposed PD -29 Overlay Zone. The Tract Map has been conditioned by staff and the City Engineer to meet all City standards including on-site subdivision and frontage improvements. The applicant will be required to record CC&R's with the map that will include maintenance and access of common areas (Condition 19). General Plan Consistency The proposed project is consistent with the following General Plan Land Use and Housing Element Policies: Land Use Policy 1.1: "Preserve the rural atmosphere of the community and assure "elbow room" in areas designed for lower density development by guiding new development into the Urban Core to conform to the historic Colony land use patterns of the City and to respect the natural environment, hillside area and existing neighborhoods". Land Use Program 1.1.7: "Within the Urban Core encourage infill development or revitalization or reuse of land already committed to urban development where utilities and public services exist. Land Use Policy 2.1: "Ensure that new development is compatible with existing and surrounding neighborhoods". Land Use Program 6.1.7: The City shall carefully evaluate both public and private projects to require the preservation of trees, watersheds, natural slopes, and other natural features. Land Use Program 6.1.9: Attention shall be paid to the aesthetic result of land division. Building sites shall minimize disruption of natural slopes, native vegetation and watersheds by the careful selection of building sites, leach fields and driveways. Building designs inappropriate for hillside locations shall not be approved. Land Use Program 6.2.1: Actively utilize the Historic Overlay zoning district to protect known historic structures, significant Colony homes and colony sites. Land Use Program 6.4.1: Protect historic buildings and sites. Atascadero's historic buildings and features shall be preserved and protected in recognition of the role the community's past plays in its present and future. Historic overlay zoning shall be utilized to protect appropriate historic districts. Land Use Program 6.4.5: Update the PD (Planned Development) overlay zone to include retention and rehabilitation of historic resources as a primary justification for PD zoning regulation standards. Housing Element Policy 4.3: "Encourage attractive architecture and site landscaping that respect terrain and native trees". In staff's opinion the proposed project is consistent with the goals and policies of the Land Use Element and the Housing Element. The project will provide seven new single-family residential units and will preserve an existing Colony Home within the medium -density residential zone. As conditioned, the project incorporates elements that are consistent with the character of the surrounding residential neighborhood and the goals and policies of the General Plan. Findings Establishment of PD -29 (Zone Text Amendment) 1. Modification of development standards or processing requirements is warranted to promote orderly and harmonious development. 2. Modification of development standards or processing requirements will enhance the opportunity to best utilize special characteristics of an area and will have a beneficial effect on the area. 3. Benefits derived from the overlay zone cannot be reasonably achieved through existing development standards or processing requirements. Planned Development Overlay (Zone Map Amendment) As specified in the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, the following specific findings for the proposed Zone Change shall be made in order to approve the proposed project: 1. The proposed Zone Change is in conformance with the adopted General Plan goals, policies, and programs and the overall intent of the General Plan. 2. The proposed Zone Change is compatible with existing development, neighborhoods and the environment. 3. The proposed Zone Change will not create any new significant and unavoidable impacts to traffic, infrastructure, or public service impacts. 4. The proposed Zone Change is consistent with the project -specific Mitigated Negative Declaration. Conditional Use Permit (Master Plan of Development) A Master Plan of Development is required for the Planned Development in the form of a Conditional Use Permit. The proposed Master Plan of Development sets development standards related to architectural design, site design, landscape, signage, and specific development standards required by the zoning ordinance. The Planning Commission must make the following five findings to recommend approval of the proposed Master Plan of Development: 1. The proposed project or use is consistent with the General Plan and the City's Appearance Review Manual. Staff Comment: The use is consistent with the General Commercial designation of the General Plan and General Plan Land Use Element Policy 1.1, 1.1.7, 2.1, 6.1.7, 6.1.9, 6.2.1, 6.4.1, 6.4.5, and Housing Element Policy 4.3. 2. The proposed project or use satisfies all applicable provisions of the Title (Zoning Ordinance) including the Planned Development Ordinance. Staff Comment: As conditioned, the project satisfies all Conditional Use Permit and Planned Development zoning code provisions. 3. The establishment, and subsequent operation or conduct of the use will not, because of the circumstances and conditions applied in the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of the general public or persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the use, or be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity of the use. Staff Comment: The proposed residential development will not be detrimental to the general public or working person's health, safety, or welfare. 4. That the proposed project or use will not be inconsistent with the character or the immediate neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development. Staff Comment: The proposed project is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood by providing a higher density residential development that includes high quality architecture and preserves the existing on-site Colony Home. 5. That the proposed use or project will not generate a volume of traffic beyond the safe capacity of all roads providing access to the project, either existing or to be improved in conjunction with the project, or beyond the normal traffic volume of the surrounding neighborhood that would result from full development in accordance with the Land Use Element. Staff Comment: The proposed project and use is consistent with the traffic projections and road improvements anticipated within the General Plan and as proposed by the applicant. Tree Removals 1. The tree is obstructing proposed improvements that cannot be reasonably designed to avoid the need for tree removal, as certified by a report from the Site Planner and determined by the Community Development Department based on the following factors: ■ Early consultation with the City ■ Consideration of practical design alternatives ■ Provision of cost comparisons (from applicant) for practical design alternatives ■ If saving tree eliminates all reasonable uses of the property ■ If saving the tree requires the removal of more desirable trees Proposed Environmental Determination A Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration was circulated to public agencies and interested members of the public on March 5, 2007. The environmental analysis identified concerns regarding potential impacts to aesthetics, land use and planning, noise, biological resources, and traffic. Mitigation measures pertaining to these resources are included. 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. Conclusion In staff's opinion, proposed development is consistent with the General Plan and compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The project incorporates appearance review of architectural design, materials, and landscaping, and incorporates architectural themes into the site and building design, as conditioned. Native trees have been preserved where feasible and required conditions and mitigation measures have been appropriately incorporated into the project. As analyzed within the project Initial Study and Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration, the proposed Master Plan of Development would have no significant environmental impacts and will not be detrimental to the general public or working persons health, safety, or welfare. Based on staff's analysis in the preceding sections, it appears all of the required findings for project approval can be made. Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission consider a guest parking alternative plan for the units located off of Rosario Avenue. Eliminating the guest parking will enhance the appearance along Palma Avenue and allow for additional landscape opportunities. The applicant has proposed 3 alternatives for your review and consideration. ALTERNATIVES 1. The Commission may recommend modifications to the project and/or conditions of approval for the project to the City council. 2. The Commission may determine 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.
