Tree Removal Permit
PLN 2007-1206/TRP 2007-0104
(8970 Montecito)
SUBJECT:
A request to remove one (1) native oak tree totaling 108" (dbh) (consisting of two 54"
trunks) found to be hazardous by a Certified Arborist. There is a 2,876 square foot
commercial building located adjacent to the tree.
RECOMMENDATION:
Based on the current condition of the tree, staff recommends:
1. The Planning Commission adopt Resolution PC 2007-0047 to approve the
request to remove one (1) 108" (dbh) native oak tree subject to findings and
conditions of approval.

Commercial Tourist (CT)
The Planning Commission approved a Tentative Parcel Map (TPM 2006-0085) to
create three commercial parcels along Montecito Avenue on August 15, 2006. The
native tree in question is the only native tree on the site and was proposed to remain.
A 2,876 square foot building was constructed adjacent to the tree (within the drip line)
and was determined by the Project Arborist that the construction did not impact the
health of the tree.
ANALYSIS:
Staff has received an updated site inspection letter from an Arborist listing the status
of the existing tree. The Arborist states that the 108" tree poses a serious hazard and
should be removed immediately. The Arborist filled out a hazard evaluation form for
the tree and giving it a hazard rating of 11 out of 12 based on the extent of decay and
size of the cavity at the base of the tree, and the location being next to an occupied
building and pedestrian sidewalk.
Based on this analysis of the current condition of the tree, staff is recommending that
the Planning Commission make the required finding for removal of the 108" native
tree. Staff has identified finding (i), listed below, as appropriate to this request.
If the requested removal is approved, the applicant will be required to mitigate the
removal based on the requirements listed in the Atascadero Native Tree Ordinance
as shown in the chart below.

FINDINGS:
Pursuant to the Tree Ordinance (Ordinance No. 214), "...decisions on native tree
removals of 24 -inch dbh-size or larger shall be made by the Planning Commission."
In considering any Tree Removal Permit request, at least one of the findings must be
made.
(i) The tree is dead, diseased or injured beyond reclamation, as certified by a
tree condition report from an arborist;
(ii) The tree is crowded by other healthier native trees; thinning (removal) would
promote healthier growth in the trees to remain, as certified by a tree
condition report from an arborist;
(iii) The tree is interfering with existing utilities and/or structures, as certified by a
report from the site planner;
(iv)The tree is inhibiting sunlight needed for existing and/or proposed active or
passive solar heating or cooling, as certified by a report from the site planner;
(v) 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:
a. Early consultation with the City,
b. Consideration of practical design alternatives,
c. Provision of cost comparisons (from applicant) for practical design
alternatives,
d. If saving tree eliminates all reasonable use of the property, or
e. Saving the tree requires the removal of more desirable trees.
Staff has identified finding (i) as applicable in this case based on the provided arborist
report.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The Planning Commission can refer the project back to the applicant and staff
for additional information.
2. The Planning Commission can approve the requested tree removal.
3. The Planning Commission can deny the tree removal.
CONCLUSION:
The applicant is proposing to remove one, 108" dbh native tree that has been
deemed hazardous by a Certified Arborist. The tree is adjacent to a commercial
building that is in use. Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission make the
required findings for removal of the tree.

(Knoph)
SUBJECT:
The proposed project includes a Tentative Parcel Map which proposes a two lot split
in the RSF-Y Zone (1 acre minimum lot size.) The existing lot is 2.33 acres gross
(2.009 acres net) with an average slope of 33%. Proposed Parcel 2 (which contains
an existing residence) is proposed at 1.33 acres. Parcel 1 is proposed at 1.0 acres
and includes a building envelope for one new residence. An emergency access
easement is proposed on Parcel 1 to give a secondary emergency access route to
Stadium Park. The project proposal includes the removal of 2 Live Oaks (58" total
DBH) and 3 Blue Oaks (63" total DBH) for the construction of the new residence,
driveway, and emergency access road on proposed Parcel 1. The project will also
include street improvements on Valle and Escarpa Ave.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff Recommends:
The Planning Commission adopt Resolution PC 2007-0050 certifying the proposed
Mitigated Negative Declaration 2007-0008, approving the removal of 2 Live Oaks and 3
Blue Oaks, and approving Tentative Parcel Map 2006-0084 (AT 06-0047), a request to
subdivide one lot totaling 2.33 gross acres into two (2) parcels containing 1.0 acres and
1.333 acres each, based on findings and subject to conditions.

Subdivision Design
The proposed Tentative Parcel Map is a two lot split in the RSF-Y zone (1 acre
minimum lot size.) Parcel 2 (which contains an existing residence) is proposed at 1.333
acres gross with a 25% slope. Parcel 1 is proposed at 1.0 acres gross on a 43% slope.
Both lots meet the minimum acreage for a lot split in the RSF-Y zone.
The proposed improvements on the site will be confined to Parcel 1 where a new single-
family residence and an access road to Stadium Park are proposed. The Tentative
Parcel Map has identified an adequate building site for the new residence which avoids
most of the trees and steep slopes located on the site. While the average slope of the
entire lot would be 43%, the 11,700 square foot building envelope would have an
average slope of 10.6%, and would be accessed off the proposed driveway on Valle
Avenue.
An emergency access easement is proposed on Parcel 1 to give a secondary
emergency access route to Stadium Park. The 20 -foot wide emergency access
easement shall be dedicated with the recordation of the Final Parcel Map. A 16 -foot
wide paved road shall be installed by the property owner at the time of building permits.
The road shall be designed with a slope of less than 20% and shall be located along the
driveway of the proposed residence.
Proposed Parcel 2:
1.333 gross acres Proposed Parcel 1:
25% slope 1.0 gross acres

Public Improvements:
The City Engineer has conditioned that the applicant improve Valle Avenue and
Escarpa Avenue as shown on the conceptual grading plan. Escarpa shall be widened
to 15 -feet with a transition to 20 -feet wide at the Valle Intersection. Valle Avenue shall
be widened to 20 -foot minimum width.
The applicant shall connect to the City sewer system as shown on the conceptual
grading plan submitted with the Tentative Map. Atascadero Mutual Water Company will
provide water to the new residence, and future utilities to the new lot will be required to
be placed underground.
Environmental Review:
A Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration is attached to this report for the Planning
Commission review.
The Initial Study concluded there would be no significant harm to the environment as a
result of this subdivision. A proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared
for the project and certification of the Mitigated Negative Declaration is included in draft
Planning Commission Resolution 2007-0050.
General Plan :
Staff has reviewed the project with the 2002 General Plan Land Use, Open Space, and
Conservation Goals, Policies, and Programs and has noted the following:
• Policy 1.1 Program 2: Concentrate higher density development downtown and
within the Urban Core
• Policy 7.1 Program 4: Require lot line adjustments and tentative subdivision
maps on site with 25 percent or greater native tree canopy cover to establish
locations of building sites, driveways and leach fields that will minimize native
tree impacts.
• Policy 15.1: Growth should be directed to areas where services can be provided
in a cost effective manner.
The project location is just south of Highway 41 East near EI Camino Real. A building
envelope is provided on a slope of 10.6% and in a location which limits tree removals.
City sewer services are provided.
CONCLUSIONS:
The subdivision is consistent with the 2002 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. The
parcel configurations are consistent with the Subdivision Ordinance requirements and
the size and shape of the proposed lots are consistent with the character of the

immediate neighborhood. If approved, the project would allow for the construction of
one additional single-family residence. Staff recommends the Planning Commission
approve the Tentative Parcel Map as conditioned.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The Commission may approve the subdivision subject to additional or revised
project conditions. The Commission's motion to approve needs to include any new
or revised project conditions.
2. The Commission may deny the subdivision if it is found to be inconsistent with the
General Plan or any of the other required findings. The Commission's motion to
deny must include a finding basis for denial.
3. The Commission may continue the hearing and refer the item back to staff for
additional information or analysis. Direction should be given to staff and the
applicant on required information.

7155 Valle
Atascadero, California
I -his tree protection plan is in regard to the vacant land located at the corner of Valle and
Escarps in Atascadero, California. The lot is located in a small valley with both coast
live oaks (Quercus agrifblia) and blue oaks (Quercus douglasrr). A paved emergency
access to Stadium Park will be located on the property. This access will impact four trees
approximately 45-50%. All four trees will have a small gravity block wall to retain soil
from the tree trunks. All will probably survive as long as the grading for the
driveway/access road is no deeper than eight inches within the drip line. The total
diameter of these trees is 126 inches. Trees #15 and #16 will have to be removed for the
home. Their diameter is a combined 44 inches. Utilities shall be routed down the
driveway. Many trees require monitoring during the construction phase.
It is the responsibility of the owner to provide a copy of this tree protection plan to any
and all contractors and subs that work within the drip line of any native tree. It is highly
recommended that each contractor sign and acknowledge this tree protection plan.
This project shalt require an on-site pre -construction meeting with the city, owner,
gradin; contractor and the arborist. Topics will include fencing, monitoring and
requirements for a positive final occupancy letter.
All trees potentially impacted by this project are numbered and identified on both the
grading plan and the spreadsheet. Trees are numbered on the grading pians and in the
field with an aluminum tag. Tree protection fencing is shown on the grading plan. In the
field, trees to be saved have yellow tape and trees to be removed have red tape.
Tree Rating System
A rating system of 1-10 was used for visually establishing the overall condition of each
tree on the spreadsheet. The rating system is defined as follows:
Ratln Condition
0 Deceased
Evidence of massive past failures, extreme disease and is in severe
decline.
2 May be saved with attention to class 4 pruning, insect/pest
eradication and future monitoring.

ITEM NUMBER: 4
DATE: 6-5-07
3 Some past failures, some pests or structural defects that may be
mitigated by class IV pruning.
4 May have had minor past failures, excessive deadwood or minor
structural defects that can be mitigated with pruning.
5 Relatively healthy tree with little visual structural and or pest
defects.
6 Healthy tree that probably can be left in its natural state.
7-9 Have had proper arboricultural pruning and attention or have no
apparent structural defects.
10 Specimen tree with perfect shape, structure and foliage in a
protected setting (i.e. park, arboretum).
The following mitigation measures/mcthods must be fully understood and followed by
anyone working within the drip line of any native tree. Any necessary clarification will
be provided by us (the arborists) upon request.
1. Fencing: The proposed fencing shall be shown in orange ink on the grading
plan. It must be a minimum of 4' high chain link, snow or safety fence staked at the edge
of the drip line or line of encroachment for each tree or group of trees. The fence shall be
up before any construction or earth moving begins. The owner shall be responsible for
maintaining an erect fence throughout the construction period. The arborist(s), upon
notification, will inspect the fence placement once it is erected. After this time, fencing
shall not be moved without arborist inspection/approval. If the orange plastic fencing is
used, a minimum of four zip ties shall be used on each stake to secure the fence. All
efforts shall be made to maximize the distance from each saved tree. The fencing must
be constructed prior to the city pre -construction meeting for inspection by the city and the
arborists.
2. Soil Aeration Methods: Soils within the drip line that have been compacted
by heavy equipment and/or construction activities must be returned to their original state
before all work is completed. Methods include water jetting, adding organic matter, and
boring small holes with an auger (18" deep, 2-3' apart with a 24" auger) and the
application of moderate amounts of nitrogen fertilizer. The arborist(s) shall advise.
3. Chip Mulch: All areas within the drip line of the trees that cannot be fenced
shall receive a 4-6" layer of chip mulch to retain moisture, soil structure and reduce the
effects of soil compaction.
4. Trenching Within Drip Line: All trenching for foundations within the drip
line of native trees shall be hand dug. All major roots shall be avoided whenever
possible. All exposed roots larger than I " in diameter shall be clean cut with sharp
pruning tools and not left ragged. A Mandatory meeting between the arborists and
grading/trenching contractor(s) shall take place prior to work start. This activity shall be
monitored by the arborist(s) to insure proper root pruning is talking place.
5. Grading Within The Drip Line: Grading should not encroach within the drip
line unless authorized. Grading should not disrupt the normal drainage pattern around the
trees. Fills should not create a ponding condition and excavations should not leave the
tree on a rapidly draining mound.

ITEM NUMBER: 4
DATE: 6-5-07
6. Exposed Roots: Any exposed roots shall be re-covered the same day they
were exposed. If they cannot, they must be covered with burlap or another suitable
material and wetted down 2x per day until re -buried.
7. Equipment Operation: Vehicles and all heavy equipment shall not be
driven under the trees, as this will contribute to soil compaction. Also there is to be no
parking of equipment or personal vehicles in these areas. All areas behind fencing are off
limits unless pre -approved by the arborist.
8. Existing Surfaces: The existing ground surface within the drip line of all
native trees shall not be cut, filled, compacted or pared, unless shown on the grading
plans and approved by the arborist.
9. Construction Materials And Waste: No liquid or solid construction waste
shall be dumped on the ground within the drip line of any native tree. The drip line areas
are not for storage of materials either.
10. Arborist Monitoring: An arborist shall be present for selected activities
(trees identified on spreadsheet and items bulleted below). The monitoring does not
necessarily have to be continuous but observational at times during these activities. It is
the responsibility of the owner(s) or their designee to inform us prior to these events so
we can make arrangements to be present. It is the responsibility of the owner to contract
(prior to construction) a locally licensed and insured arborist that will document all
monitoring activities.
• pre -construction fence placement
• any utility or drainage trenching within any drip line
• All grading and trenching near trees requiring monitoring on the spreadsheet
11. Pre -Construction Meeting: An on-site pre -construction meeting with the
Arborist(s), Owner(s), Planning Staff, and the earth moving team shall be required for
this project. Prior to final occupancy, a letter from the arborist(s) shall be required
verifying the hcalth/condition of all impacted trees and providing any recommendations
for any additional mitigation. The letter shall verify that the arborist(s) were on site for
all grading and/or trenching activity that encroached into the drip line of the selected
native trees. and that all work done in these areas was completed to the standards set forth
above.
12. Pruning: Class 4 pruning includes -Crown reduction pruning shall consist of
reduction of tops, sides or individual limbs. A trained arborist shall perform all pruning.
No pruning shall take more than 25% of the live crown of any native tree. Any trees that
may need pruning for road/home clearance shall be pruned prior to any grading activities

lines; otherwise above ground drip -irrigation shall be used. It is the owner's
responsibility to notify the landscape contractor regarding this mitigation.
14. Utility Placement: All utilities and sewer/storm drains shall be placed down
the roads/driveways and when possible outside of the drip lines. The arborist shall
supervise trenching within the drip line. All trenches in these areas shall be exposed
by air spade or hand dug with utilities routed under/over the roots. Roots greater
than 2 inches in diameter shall not be cut.
15. Fertilization and Cultural Practices: As the project moves toward
completion, the arborist(s) may suggest either fertilization and/or mycorrhiza applications
that will benefit tree health. Mycorrhiza offers several benefits to the host plant,
including faster growth, improved nutrition, greater drought resistance, and protection
from pathogens.
The included spreadsheet includes trees listed by number, species and multiple stems if
applicable, diameter and breast height (4.5'), condition (scale from poor to excellent),
status (avoided, impacted, removed, exempt), percent of drip line impacted, mitigation
required (fencing, root pruning, monitoring), construction impact (trenching, grading),
recommended pruning and individual tree notes.
If all the above mitigation measures are followed, we feel there will be no additional
long-term significant impacts to the remaining native trees.
A &. T Arborists strongly suggests that the responsible party (owner of their designee)
make copies of this report. Any reproduction by A & T Arborists or changes to this
original report will require an additional charge.
Please let us know if we can be of any future assistance to you for this project

And Class 15, Minor Land Divisions
DISCUSSION:
Background
The property is located on Olmeda Avenue near Rosario Avenue within the RMF -10
Zoning District. The parcel is relatively flat and is currently developed with one existing
residence. City sewer will serve the property and water is available from the Atascadero
Mutual Water Company.
Condominium Design
The proposed map will create two (2) airspace units on one legal lot of record. One
new unit is proposed behind the existing unit. A second driveway is proposed at 12 feet
in width with pavers (Condition 13), and landscaping on both sides of the driveway.
Proposed Site Plan
\\Cityhall\cdvlpmnt\- pre 06 PLNs (Old Planning Docs)\- TPM - Tentative Parcel Maps\TPM 06\TPM 2006-0083 5485 Olmeda
Ave\TPM 2006-0083.PC SR.ct.doc
ITEM NUMBER: 5
DATE: 6-5-07
The new two-story, three bedroom residence is proposed with 1,100 square feet of
living space, plus a 420 square foot attached garage. The existing residence contains
two bedrooms. Both the existing and proposed residences have attached two car
garages. One additional designated guest parking space is located towards the rear of
the lot and additional parking is available in the driveways in front of both residences, for
a total of at least six spaces, as required by the Zoning Ordinance.
Front Elevation: New Unit
A minimum of 300 square feet of private open space for each unit is provided in the
front, side, and rear yards of each unit. A landscape plan and fencing plan have been
provided by the applicant. Drought tolerant plant species shall be installed, and the
existing front lawn shall be replaced with drought tolerant plantings (Condition 14.)
The subdivision is consistent with the General Plan Medium Density Residential Land
Use Designation and Residential Multi -family Zoning regulations.
Native Trees
Four native Live Oaks are located on or near the site. No native trees are proposed for
removal. Arborist Report and tree protection plans have been provided which identify
native tree impacts ranging from 10% to 30%. Arborist monitoring shall be required for
construction around tree #1 (23" Live Oak) and tree protection fencing shall be installed
prior to construction (Condition 12.)
\\Cityhall\cdvlpmnt\- pre 06 PLNs (Old Planning Docs)\- TPM - Tentative Parcel Maps\TPM 06\TPM 2006-0083 5485 Olmeda

ITEM NUMBER: 5
DATE: 6-5-07
Public Improvements
The project has been conditioned to construct curb, gutter, and sidewalk along the
Olmeda Avenue frontage (Condition 42). All utilities to the new unit and along the
project frontage shall be undergrounded (Condition 44).
Environmental Review:
As proposed, the project qualifies for a Class 3(b) and a Class 15 Categorical
Exemption, which exempts the conversion and/or construction of multi -family projects of
less than four units, which do not otherwise create a negative impact.
CONCLUSION:
The proposed condominium map, as conditioned, is consistent with the 2002 General
Plan and Zoning Ordinance and the airspace configurations are consistent with the
requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance. Staff recommends the Planning
Commission approve the Tentative Parcel Map as conditioned.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The Commission may approve the map subject to additional or revised project
conditions. The Commission's motion to approve must include any new or
revised project conditions.
2. The Commission may deny the map if it is found to be inconsistent with the
General Plan or any of the other required findings. The Commission's motion to
deny must include a finding basis for denial.
3. The Commission may continue the hearing and refer the item back to staff for
additional information or analysis. Direction should be given to staff and the
applicant on required information.

This tree protection plan is in regard to the planned lot split and second ho]COWONITi OE1;Ei OPM1tENT
above named -address. There are three coast live oaks (Quercus agrifolia) located on the
property and an additional coast live oak on the property to the east. Access to the
planned second home will use an existing driveway next the garage of the front home.
The driveway appears to be elevated on approximately 8-10 inches of fill. Pavers will be
required within the drip line of tree #I. The storm drain appears too close to the tree and
will treed to be moved. A potential new path is outline on the plans. The electrical, water
and gas trenches are also very close to tree #1. They may not be able to be moved due to
required distances for the existing home and the sewer line. All utility trenches shall be
hand dug and airspaded. The arborists shall be on hand for all digging within the drip
line oftree #1. No roots larger than 1" shall be cut without arborist approval. The final
occupancy letter shall include pictures of these exposed trenches that show the conduit(s)
being routed under roots. The owner shall notify the arborists for the trenching activity.
If monitoring is not performed, tree #1 will have to be bonded per city requirements. The
post holes for the fence near trees #2 and #3 shall be hand dug. All roots >1" in diameter
shall be cut with sharp tools.
It is the responsibility of the owner to provide a copy of this tree protection plan to any
and all contractors and subs that work within the drip line of any native tree. It is highly
recommended that each contractor sign and acknowledge this tree protection plan.
This project shall require an on-site pre -construction meeting with the city, owner,
grading contractor and the arborist. Topics will include fencing, monitoring and
requirements for a positive final occupancy letter.
All trees potentially impacted by this project are numbered and identified on both the
grading plan and the spreadsheet. Trees are numbered on the grading plans and in the
field with an aluminum tag. Tree protection fencing is shown on the grading plan. In the
lield, trees to be saved have yellow tape and trees to be removed have red tape.
Tree Rating System
A rating system of 1-10 was used for visually establishing the overall condition of each
tree on the spreadsheet. The rating system is defined as follows:

1 Evidence of massive past failures, extreme disease and is in severe
decline.
2 May be saved with attention to class 4 pruning, insect/pest
eradication and future monitoring.
3 Some past failures, some pests or structural defects that may be
mitigated by class IV pruning.
4 May have had minor past failures, excessive deadwood orminor
structural defects that can be mitigated with pruning.
5 Relatively healthy tree with little visual structural and or pest
defects.
6 Healthy tree that probably can be left in its natural state.
7-9 Have had proper arboricultural pruning and attention or have no
apparent structural defects.
10 Specimen tree with perfect shape, structure and foliage in a
protected setting (i.e. park, arboretum).
The following mitigation measures/methods must be fully understood and followed by
anyone working within the drip line of any native tree. Any necessary clarification will
be provided by us (the arborists) upon request.
1. Fencing: The proposed fencing shall be shown in orange ink on the grading
plan. It must be a minimum of 4' high chain link, snow or safety fence staked at the edge
of the drip line or line of encroachment for each tree or group of trees. The fence shall be
Lip before any construction or earth moving begins. The owner shall be responsible for
maintaining an erect fence throughout the construction period. The arborist(s), upon
notification, will inspect the fence placement once it is erected. After this time, fencing
shall not be moved without arborist inspection/approval. If the orange plastic fencing is
used, a minimum of four zip ties shall be used on each stake to secure the fence. All
efforts shall be made to maximize the distance from each saved tree. The fencing must
be constructed prior to the city pre -construction meeting for inspection by the city and the
arborists.
2. Soil Aeration Methods: Soils within the drip line that have been compacted
by heavy equipment and/or construction activities must be returned to their original state
before all work is completed. Methods include water jetting, adding organic matter, and
boring small holes with an auger (18" deep, 2-3' apart with a 24" auger) and the
application of moderate amounts of nitrogen fertilizer. The arborist(s) shall advise.
3. Chip Mulch: All areas within the drip line of the trees that cannot be fenced
shall receive a 4-6" layer of chip mulch to retain moisture, soil structure and reduce the
effects of soil compaction.
4. Trencbing Within Drip Line: All trenching for foundations within the drip
I ine of native trees shall be hand dug. All major roots shall be avoided whenever
possible. All exposed roots larger than 1" in diameter shall be clean cut with sharp
pruning tools and not left ragged. A Mandatory meeting between the arborists and
grading/trenching contractor(s) shall take place prior to work start. This activity shall be
monitored by the arborist(s) to insure proper root pruning is talking place.

ITEM NUMBER
DATE: 6-5-07
5. Grading Within The Drip Line: Grading should not encroach within the drip
line unless authorized. Grading should not disrupt the normal drainage pattern around the
trees. Fills should not create a ponding condition and excavations should not leave the
tree on a rapidly draining mound.
6. Exposed Roots: Any exposed roots shall be re-covered the same day they
were exposed. If they cannot, they must be covered with burlap or another suitable
material and wetted down 2x per day until re -buried.
7. Paving Within The Drip Line: Pervious surfacing is preferred within the
drip line of any native tree. This includes coring vertical tubing approximately 4 feet on
center within the drip line and backfilling with Mychorizza, slow release fertilizer and
pea gravel.
8. Equipment Operation: Vehicles and all heavy equipment shall not be
driven under the trees, as this will contribute to soil compaction. Also there is to be no
parking of equipment or personal vehicles in these areas. All areas behind fencing are oil
limits unless pre -approved by the arborist.
9. Existing Surfaces: The existing ground surface within the drip line of all
native trees shall not be cut, filled, compacted or pared, unless shown on the grading
plans and approved by the arborist.
10. Construction Materials And Waste: No liquid or solid construction waste
shall be dumped on the ground within the drip line of any native tree. The drip line areas
are not for storage of materials either.
11. Arborist Monitoring: An arborist shall be present for selected activities
(trees identified on spreadsheet and items bulleted below). The monitoring does not
necessarily have to be continuous but observational at times during these activities. It is
the responsibility of the owner(s) or their designee to inform us prior to these events so
we can make arrangements to be present. It is the responsibility of the owner to contract
(prior to construction) a locally licensed and insured arborist that will document all
monitoring activities.
• pre -construction fence placement
• any utility or drainage trenching within any drip line
• All grading and trenching near trees requiring monitoring on the spreadsheet
12. Pre -Construction Meeting: An on-site pre -construction meeting with the
Arborist(s), Owner(s), Planning Staff, and the earth moving team shall be required for
this project. Prior to final occupancy, a letter from the arborist(s) shall be required
verifying the health/condition of all impacted trees and providing any recommendation,
for any additional mitigation. The letter shall verify that the arborist(s) were on site for
all grading and/or trenching activity that encroached into the drip line of the selected
native trees, and that all work done in these areas was completed to the standards set forth
above.

DATE: 6-5-07
13. Pruning: Class 4 pruning includes -Crown reduction pruning shall consist of
reduction of tops, sides or individual limbs. A trained arborist shall perform all pruning.
No pruning shall take more than 25% of the live crown of any native tree. Any trees that
may need pruning for road/home clearance shall be pruned prior to any grading activities
to avoid any branch tearing.
14. Landscape: All landscape under the drip -line shall be drought tolerant or native
varieties. Lawns shall be avoided. All irrigation trenching shall be routed around drip
lines; otherwise above ground drip -irrigation shall be used. It is the owner's
responsibility to notify the landscape contractor regarding this mitigation.
15. Utility Placement: All utilities and sewer/storm drains shall be placed down
the roads/driveways and when possible outside of the drip lines. The arborist shall
supervise trenching within the drip line. All trenches in these areas shall be exposed
by air spade or hand dug with utilities routed under/over the roots. Roots greater
than 2 inches in diameter shall not be cut.
16. Fertilization and Cultural Practices: As the project moves toward
completion, the arborist(s) may suggest either fertilization and/or mycorrhiza applications
that will benefit tree health. Mycorrhiza offers several benefits to the host plant,
including faster growth, improved nutrition, greater drought resistance, and protection
from pathogens.
The included spreadsheet includes trees listed by number, species and multiple stems if
applicable, diameter and breast height (4.5'), condition (scale from poor to excellent).
status (avoided, impacted, removed, exempt), percent of drip line impacted, mitigation
required (fencing, root pruning, monitoring), construction impact (trenching, grading),
recommended pruning and individual tree notes.
If all the above mitigation measures are followed, we feel there will be no additional
long-term significant impacts to the remaining native trees.
A & T Arborists strongly suggests that the responsible party (owner of their designee)
make copies of this report. Any reproduction by A & T Arborists or changes to the
original report will require an additional charge.
Please let us know if we can be of any future assistance to you for this project.

SHEET 4
In 2001, when Tract 2396 was established, second units were not permitted in
Atascadero. The tract was therefore designed with building envelopes to accommodate
only one house on each lot.
A condition regarding the building envelopes was adopted with TTM 2000-0001 to allow
a mechanism for changing the location of the approved building envelope. If future
construction is inconsistent with the "building site details" a Precise Plan would be
completed and CEQA review would address any new environmental impacts of the
proposed construction. However, the possibility of adding a second envelope on a lot
was not addressed at the time the map was adopted since they were not allowed
anywhere in the City.
In addition to the building envelopes, a condition was included to limit the amount of cut
and fill for the construction of new residences within the Rancho de Paraiso subdivision.

"Building Site Details" a Precise Plan application will be

Grading:
The General Plan encourages the preservation of the contours of the hills and states that buildings
built on hillsides shall conform to the topography using the slope of the land as the basis of the
structure. This primary goal of the City's General Plan is difficult for staff to implement without
having agrading ordinance in effect. Staff has conditioned the project such that the placement of
the new homes be consistent with the Building Site Details submitted for the project. The
building sites on the details are limited to areas under 20 percent slope. Additionally, the project
conditions require the building envelopes to be delineated by a survey point and corresponding
radius on the final map. If future construction on a lot is inconsistent with the `Building Site
Details" or requires more than 8 -feet of cut or fill (see discussion below) a Precise Plan
application will be required to be approved for the residence.

In 2003, Atascadero adopted a second unit ordinance to allow second living units on
properties which meet certain criteria. The second unit ordinance allows for a 1000
square foot unit, plus an attached garage, in addition to the main residence on the
property. The property must be on one acre or larger in order to connect the second
unit to a septic system.
Site Description
The subject property is Lot 14 of Tract 2396 in Rancho de Paraiso. The site is located
on the corner of Portal Road and Escondido Road. A blueline creek runs through the
center of the property and along Escondido Road. The site contains several native oak
trees including mostly Blue Oaks and Valley Oaks. The site is approximately 3.96 acres
net (4.73 acres gross) and has an average slope of 19%. Several easements run
through the property, including Escondido Road and Portal Road, as well as PG&E,
PUE, Navy, and drainage easements.

Analysis:
An Amendment is being proposed on Lot 14 of Tract 2396 to approve an alternative
location for the primary building envelope, and to establish a second building envelope
on the opposite side of the blueline creek. The primary residence is proposed to take
access off Portal Road, and the second unit will take access off of Escondido Road.
The amendment is being proposed to amend the building envelopes on Lot 14 only.
The changes would be shown as an addendum to the Additional Map Sheet which was
originally recorded with the final map for Tract 2396.
Due to the fact that the subdivision was designed to accommodate only one house on
each lot, the Fire Department has concerns about allowing second units on all lots within
the Rancho de Paraiso subdivision. Portal Road is extremely steep and narrow, making
it difficult for fire trucks to access residences in an emergency. To allow second units
on all lot within the subdivision could potentially double the number of residences on this
difficult road. The subject property on Lot 14 does not pose a problem for emergency
access because the second unit will take access off of Escondido Road. However, any
other properties within the tract will have to apply for an amendment on an individual
basis in order to establish a second building envelope on any additional lots.

Po oad
Second Unit Primary Unit
`�' Blueline Creek
The main residence on the subject site is proposed at 3,716 square feet with a 1,156
square foot attached garage on a 12% average slope. The second unit is proposed at
998 square feet with an 821 square foot attached garage/ storage space on a 17%
slope. 1,200 cubic yards of cut and 815 cubic yards of fill will be required for the
construction of the two residences.
Due to the size of the garage attached to the second unit (821 square feet, which is
more than 50% of the size of the second unit) the garage will be considered an
accessory structure to the main unit. A maximum of two accessory structures are
allowed per the zoning ordinance.
Building envelopes are proposed by the applicant which encompass all of the grading
which will be done with construction of the two residences. The envelopes have been
designed to avoid the majority of the tree canopies and the blueline creeks on site. A
separate building envelope is proposed for the septic system. The septic is designed as
a seepage pit (deep pit) disposal system due to the limited flat area and soil suitability
on site.
A pedestrian bridge is proposed between the two residences, to be located over the
blueline creek in the center of the property. Bridges are an allowed use within blueline
creek setbacks as stated in the creek setback ordinance currently under review.
Conditions have been included in the draft resolution which require the applicant to
receive approval from Fish and Game, Army Corps of Engineers, and the Water Quality
Board prior to permit issuance. These conditions are consistence which those originally
adopted with TTM 20000-0001.
Native Trees:
No native tree removals are proposed. 7 Blue Oaks and Valley Oaks will be impacted
by the construction of the residences and the septic system. Impacts range from 10%
to 45%. Arborist monitoring will be required for several trees during construction.
An arborist report is included as Attachment 4 of this report. The submitted tree
protection plan was designed in the beginning stages of the project development. Since
that time, the septic has been redesigned as a deep pit system to limit the area required
for the leach fields. The draft resolution has been conditioned to require a revised
arborist report to identify any changes in tree protection and construction impacts prior
to building permit issuance.
Tree Removals:
When comparing the originally approved building site with the applicant's project
proposal, staff noticed that two trees shown on the original site survey were not shown
on the current plans. During a site investigation, it was discovered that two native trees,
an 18 -inch White Oak and a 19 -inch Live Oak were removed on the vacant site without
a tree removal permit.
The applicant has been able to provide documentation that the trees were removed
prior to the time that they purchased the property (see Attachment 3.) A letter from the
project arborist states that based on the chippings found on site, the trees were
probably removed prior to last year when the applicant purchased the site.
Building Site Detail showing approved building site and site survey done with TTM 2000-0001:
Tree mitigation fees and penalty have not been issued for the illegal tree removals since
the applicant has been able to show that the removal took place prior to their purchase
of the lot. Staff has provided a tree mitigation fee schedule for Planning Commission
review should the Commission choose to charge any mitigation or penalty fees. When
trees are removed without a permit, the tree mitigation fees are usually doubled as a
penalty for not obtaining a permit or going through the review process. Standard
mitigation for these tree removals would be $458.33, and a double fee for removal
without a permit would be $916.66 should the Commission chose to charge the
applicant for the removals.

A proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared for the project in
accordance with the requirements of CEQA. The proposed document is attached for
Planning Commission review.
CONCLUSION:
The proposed building envelope amendment and second building envelope addition, as
conditioned, are consistent with the 2002 General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. Staff
recommends the Planning Commission approve the amendment to the building
envelope on Lot 14 of Tract 2396 and establish a second envelope as conditioned.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The Commission may approve the map amendment with modified project conditions.
2. 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.
3. The Commission may deny the map if it is found to be inconsistent with the General
Plan or any of the other required findings. The Commission's motion to deny must
include a finding basis for denial.

Attention: Callie Taylor
Reference RTTM Application
Lot 14, APN 054-192-033
Rancho Dc Paraiso Tract 2396
Dear Callie Taylor;
PL, ry - OLOU6 'I 11 b
Doing this application process, it has been brought to our attention several native oak trees that were noted with the
original TTM application #TTM 2000-0001 are now not on Lot 14. There apparently has been no application for the
removal of these trees on record and the question has risen if Deborah Puma is responsible for the tree removal.
This property was owned by James and Ronda Thorpe as documented with a copy of a preliminary title report
prepared by Cuesta Title dated Tuesday, March 07, 2006. This report marks the beginning of the purchase escruu
for the property purchase by Deborah Puma. The escrow closed in late April, 2006.
I have been able to put a time line to the period at which the trees were visible on an aerial and later gone from an
aerial picture.
Note the copies of photos from Zillow.com:
• Photo page 1: Trees are present.
• Photo page 2: No construction on Portal Road.
• Photo page 3: A foundation layout for a new home at the south west comer of San Gabriel Road and
Escondido Road.
Note the copies of photos from Goggle Earth:
• Photo page 4: Trees are gone.
• Photo page 5: The new home at the south west comer of San Gabriel Road and Escondido Road is nearing
completion.
These photos attest to a time line between which the trees are there and a time at which they are not there. It is
obvious they were removed between these time periods. Simply by checking the permit application and inspection
dates during the construction process of the house at the south west comer of San Gabriel Road and Escondido Road
one can pin point the time line.
Considering it is a known fact the trees were not at the site at the time just prior to the opening of escrow by
Deborah to purchase the property, these dates will exonerate Deborah from the responsibility for the removal of the
trees. Considering this data, I presume these missing trees will not have any involvement with our RTTM
application and or Deborah Puma in any manor.
I presume the City of Atascadero may or may not choose to pursue the questioning of Jamcs Thorpc to determine if
he owned the property during the time period identified and address the issue with him.
Thank you,
David Avila

9525 Gallina Ct — Paradise Valley Care
(Vrajich)
SUBJECT:
The proposed project consists of an application to allow an increase from 6 clients to 8
clients at an existing residential care facility located at 9525 Galina Ct.
RECOMMENDATION:
Planning Commission adopt Resolution PC 2007-0048 approving PLN 2007-1190
(Conditional Use Permit) based on findings and subject to Conditions of Approval.
Situation and Facts
1. Owner: Ruth and Milan Vrajich, 9525 Gallina Ct., Atascadero,
CA 93422
2. Project Address: 9525 Gallina Ct., Atascadero, CA 93422
(San Luis Obispo County) APN 054-272-025
3. General Plan Designation: Rural Estates (RE)
4. Zoning District: Residential Suburban (RS)
5. Site Area: 2.6 acres net
6. Existing Use: Residential Care Facility — 6 clients maximum
7. Environmental Status: Class 1, Categorical Exemption Section 15301: Existing
Facilities
DISCUSSION:
Proiect Definition
The proposed project consists of a request to establish a residential care facility serving
8 clients. Paradise Valley Care was established in 1999 and currently, the facility
accommodates 6 clients. The Atascadero Municipal Code exempts residential care
facilities serving 6 residents or less from review. The applicant is applying to establish a
larger care facility with the ability to serve 2 additional clients.
Background
9525 Gallina Ct
Llano Rd
Santa Lucia Rd
Surrounding Land Use and
Setting:
North: Residential Suburban
South: Residential Suburban
East: Residential Suburban
West: Residential Suburban
The project site is within the Rural Estates General Plan Land Use Designation and is
zoned Residential Suburban, which allows for residential care facilities that serve
greater then 6 clients with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
ANALYSIS:
Parkina / Traffic / Circulation
The increase from 6 clients to 8 clients will not create a significant increase in traffic.
The site includes an existing parking area which accommodates residents, visitors, and
employees. Adequate access is provided to the site off of Gallina Court.
General Plan Consistency
The proposed project is consistent with the following General Plan Housing Element
Policy:
Goal HOS 1: Promote diverse and high quality housing opportunities to meet the needs
of all segments of the community
In staff's opinion the proposed 8 -client residential care facility is consistent with the
surrounding neighborhood and will not create significant impacts to neighborhood traffic.
The Fire Department has reviewed the site and has determined that there is adequate
emergency access. The proposed project provides increased housing opportunities for
seniors.
Findings
The Planning Commission must make the following five findings to approve the
requested use:
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 housing elements goals outlined in
the General Plan.
2. The proposed project or use satisfies all applicable provisions of the Title (Zoning
Ordinance.)
Staff Comment: The proposed use is consistent with all zoning ordinance
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 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 increase in senior clients will not negatively impact
the surrounding neighborhood.
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.
Based on staff's analysis in the preceding sections, it appears that all of the required
findings for approval of a Conditional Use Permit can be made.
Environmental Determination
The project qualifies for a Class 1 categorical exemption.
Conclusion
The proposed project is a request to allow 2 additional residents at an existing
residential care facility. The proposed increase will not create substantial impacts to the
surrounding neighborhood and/or environment. The use is compatible with the
Residential Suburban Zoning Designation and will provide an increase in opportunities
to elderly persons requiring an additional level of care.
ALTERNATIVES
1. The Commission may recommend modifications to the project and/or conditions
of approval for the project.
2. 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.
3. The Commission may deny the project. The parcel would retain its designation
of Residential Suburban and would be allowed to continue to operate with a
maximum of 6 clients. The Commission should specify the reasons for denial of
the project and make an associated finding with such action.

Conditional Use Permit 2003-0092 Amendment
Colony Park Outdoor BMX Park
5493 Traffic Way
(City of Atascadero, Geoff English)
SUBJECT:
The proposed project, amending Conditional Use Permit (CUP 2003-0092), is a request
to replace the rear paved parking lot for the Mobley's Indoor Skate Park with an outdoor
BMX park; and a request to reduce the approved 26 on-site parking spaces to 12
spaces.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff Recommends:
The Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. PC 2007-0046 approving Conditional
Use Permit 2003-0092 subject to the findings, conditions and exhibits as attached.
SITUATION AND FACTS:
1. Applicant: City of Atascadero, 6907 EI Camino Real,
Atascadero, CA 93422
2. Project Address: 5493 Traffic Way, Atascadero, CA 93422
(APN 028-361-033)
3. General Plan Designation: Industrial ( I )
4. Zoning District: Industrial ( I )
5. Existing Use: Outdoor BMX park and indoor skating facility
6. Environmental Status: Consistent with Certified Mitigated Negative
Declaration # 2005-0050
STAFF ANALYSIS:
1. Project Summary:
The proposed Conditional Use Permit Amendment consists of a request to replace the
rear parking with an outdoor BMX track on the existing asphalt; and a request to reduce
the required on-site parking. CUP 2003-0092 originally permitted an indoor youth and
community recreation center at an existing 9,800 square foot warehouse facility, and 26
on-site parking spaces, as identified on the CUP site plan. The site is a 0.761 -acre net
parcel and is surrounded on each side by industrial and public uses. Immediately
adjacent to the proposed site is a public park facility with two sports fields. The
permitting of the outdoor BMX park attached to the community recreation center is
consistent with the Colony Park Master Plan which has been approved by the City
Council and Parks and Recreation Commission.
The eastern edge of the site borders Atascadero Creek and has been paved with
asphalt for decades. The property is currently occupied and operated by Mobley's.

2. Background:
CUP 2003-0092 originally permitted an indoor Youth and Community Recreation Center
at an existing 9,800 square foot warehouse facility, and 26 on-site parking spaces. On
June 17, 2004, the City Council adopted the Colony Park Master Plan which identifies
the proposed project site as an indoor skate park. More recently, the City contracted
with Mobley's, a private local business, to operate the indoor skate park facility.
Outdoor BMX park ramps were recently constructed by Mobley's without permits.
However, Mobley's has agreed to work with staff on bringing the facility into
conformance with codes and regulations which requires approval of this Conditional
Use Permit Amendment.
3. Design and Appearance:
The Conditional Use Permit Amendment requires site design and appearance review.
The project includes newly constructed ramps on the rear parking lot. New facade
improvements to the existing building were not implemented due to cost constraints and
the construction of a new recreation center. The proposed project requests utilization of
the buildina as it exists today.

The proposed site design eliminates 14
on-site parking spaces. However, the
Planning Commission may modify the
parking standards through a Conditional
Use Permit approval based upon specific
findings of fact that the characteristics of a
use or its immediate vicinity do not
necessitate the number of parking spaces,
type of design, or improvements required
and that reduced parking will be adequate
to accommodate on the site all parking
needs generated by the use.
Parking for phase one of Colony includes 149 parking spaces with overflow parking at
the proposed swim complex.(See figure below.)

2. The proposed use satisfies all applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.
Staff Comment: As conditioned, the project satisfies all zoning code provisions.
3. The establishment, and subsequent operation or conduct of the use will not,
because of the circumstances and conditions applied in this 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 of injurious
to the property or improvements in the vicinity and the use.
Staff Comment: The existing outdoor BMX park will not be detrimental to the
general public or working persons health, safety, or welfare.
4. The proposed use will not be inconsistent with the character of the immediate
neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development.
Staff Comment: The proposed use is compatible with the adjacent Traffic Way
Park and, as conditioned, will be consistent with the surrounding uses and
neighborhood.
5. The proposed use 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 existing facility and use are consistent with the traffic
projections and road improvements anticipated within the General Plan. As
conditioned, the existing on-site parking and circulation meets the zoning
ordinance requirements.
6. The characteristics of the proposed 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.
Staff Comment: Although the proposed facility and use are consistent with the
Colony Park master site plan, the reduced parking will reduce the overall park
parking, resulting in the inability to accommodate parking associated with some
of the future park amenities such as the amphitheater, sports courts, play
structures, and swimming complex. As conditioned, the proposed project could
be approved.
CONCLUSION:
The proposed City Recreational Center is consistent with the goals and policies
established in the General Plan and the Colony Park Master Plan. The project has been
conditioned to integrate appropriately within the context of surrounding uses and meets
all site development and appearance review requirements of the Zoning Ordinance.
Therefore, staff recommends approval of the proposed outdoor BMX park.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The Planning Commission may add to or modify project conditions for the proposed
Amendment to the Conditional Use Permit.
2. The Planning Commission deny the proposed Amendment to the Conditional Use
Permit. The Commission must make findings of denial.
3. The Planning Commission may continue the hearing and refer the project back to
staff for further analysis. Direction should be given to staff and the applicant on
required additional information.
