EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Atascadero Limited Obligation Improvement Bonds City of Atascadero Improvement District
No 4 (Separado-Cayucos Assessment District),(the “Bonds”)were issued to pay for certain design and
issuance costs, to fund a reserve and to construct and acquire the public improvements (the “Project”)
intended to serve the City of Atascadero Improvement District No 4 (Separado-Cayucos Assessment
District)(the “Assessment District”).The Project included the construction of sewer improvements in
the areas of the City known as Separado-Cayucos.
The Bonds originally were scheduled to mature on September 2, 2007.Following the final debt service
payment,the City determined there are remaining funds.
The City has retained NBS to perform a closeout analysis and prepare a District Closeout Analysis and
Findings Report (the “Closeout Report”) for the Bonds and related Assessment District. This Closeout
Report summarizes the recommendations for the disposition of the remaining funds in accordance with
the applicable laws and directs the City in the process required for the disposition of these funds.Any
actions taken from the information or recommendations in this report should first be reviewed and
approved by legal counsel.
The remaining funds should be disposed in accordance with the California Streets and Highways Code
(the “Code”) and the Resolution No.134-86, A Resolution Authorizing Issuance of Bonds, City of
Atascadero,City of Atascadero Improvement District No 4 (Separado-Cayucos Assessment District)
adopted December 18, 1986 (the “Resolution”).
Pursuant to Section 11(d)of the Resolution, excess funds in the Reserve Fund are to be transferred to
the City to be used in accordance with Part 16 of the Improvement Bond Act of 1915, Division 10 of the
Code.The Reserve Fund is closed and the excess funds have been transferred by the City to the
Redemption Fund.Pursuant to Sections 8885 and 8784 of the Code,the City intends to refund the
excess funds held in the Redemption Fund, less closeout fees, to eligible property owners.
There are no delinquent parcels within the Assessment District.
Pursuant to Section 12(c) of Resolution No. 134-86, the Assessment District qualifies for the small
issuer exemption and does not require arbitrage rebate calculations.
In preparing this Closeout Report, NBS has made the following assumptions:
All improvements have been completed and the related improvement funds were closed.
City expenses associated with the closeout (including mailing,printing expenses, and staff
time) will be recovered from the 6 months of interest earned between 6/30/2015 and
12/31/2015.
Parcel data is received from the City of Atascadero as well as the San Luis Obispo County
Assessor’s Office secured property tax roll, and NBS has relied upon this data to generate the
refund worksheet.
The Reserve Fund associated with the Bonds was closed and the City requested the transfer
of the remaining balance to the Redemption Fund.
The City desires to refund net surplus amounts associated with the Bonds to all eligible parcels
on a pro-rata basis.

Atascadero City Council
Staff Report - Community Development Department
Ordinance Amending Section 9-6.186 of the Atascadero Municipal
Code Regarding Marijuana Cultivation Facilities
(PLN 2015-1574)
RECOMMENDATION:
Council adopt on second reading, by title only, Draft Ordinance A amending Section 9-
6.186 of the Atascadero Municipal Code Regarding Marijuana Cultivation Facilities.
.
DISCUSSION:
The ordinance amends Section 9-6.186 of the Municipal Code allowing limited Medical
Marijuana cultivation for qualified patients and caregivers. Draft Ordinance A continues
the City’s existing prohibition against marijuana cultivation facilities , marijuana
dispensaries, commercial cannabis activities and medical marijuana deliveries but
creates an exception under Section 9-8.186(c) for private cultivation by qualified
patients on their own properties. Under the proposed ordinance, the City reserves the
right to abate any nuisance conditions, such as noxious odors or life and safety
hazards, associated with or arising from any private cultivation conducted pursuant to
this exception.
On March 22, 2016, the City Council conducted a public hearing to consider the
amendments and voted 5-0 to introduce the amendments for first reading.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed ordinance represents a continuation of existing enforcement policies
regarding medical marijuana facilities, so there would be no change in the fiscal impact
for the City.

DRAFT ORDINANCE A
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF ATASCADERO, CALIFORNIA AMENDING
SECTION 9-6.186 OF THE ATASCADERO MUNICIPAL
CODE REGARDING MARIJUANA CULTIVATION
FACILITIES
WHEREAS, on September 11, 2015, the California Legislature passed Assembly Bills 243 and
266 and Senate Bill 643, which together create a broad state regulatory and licensing system
governing the cultivation, testing, and distribution of medical marijuana, the manufacturing of
marijuana products, and physician recommendations for medical marijuana; and,
WHEREAS, Governor Brown signed each bill on October 9, 2015; and,
WHEREAS, Business and Professions Code section 11362.777(c)(4), which was added by AB
243, provided that if a city did not have a land use regulation or ordinance either regulating or
prohibiting marijuana cultivation, either expressly or otherwise under the principles of
permissive zoning, by March 1, 2016, the State would become sole licensing authority for the
commercial cultivation of medical marijuana in that jurisdiction; and,
WHEREAS, faced with the March 1st deadline, which was left in the final version of AB 243
inadvertently, and its potentially significant public safety consequences, many cities and counties
throughout California adopted express bans on marijuana cultivation activities; and,
WHEREAS, on January 26, 2016, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 593, which
prohibited marijuana cultivation facilities, marijuana dispensaries, commercial cannabis
activities, and medical marijuana deliveries in all zones of the City; and,
WHEREAS, during the consideration of Ordinance No. 593, the City Council heard from
citizens who were concerned that a complete ban on private marijuana cultivation would make it
difficult, if not impossible, for certain qualified patients to obtain medical marijuana; and,
WHEREAS, in adopting Ordinance No. 593, the City Council recognized the necessity of
having a marijuana cultivation ordinance in effect before March 1st and directed staff to return
with an amendment that would allow limited marijuana cultivation by qualified patients under
certain circumstances; and,
WHEREAS, the Legislature has since enacted Assembly Bill 21, which deleted the March 1st
deadline; and,
WHEREAS, Regardless of whether the March 1st deadline remained in effect, the City has
authority through its constitutional police power and under the express terms of AB 243, AB
266, and SB 643 to amend its marijuana cultivation prohibition at any time; and,
ITEM NUMBER: A-4
DATE: 04/12/16
WHEREAS, the City Council desires to amend Section 9-8.106 to enable qualified patients to
cultivate medical marijuana on their own properties for their own personal, medical use.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ATASCADERO DOES
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION ONE. Findings. The City Council hereby incorporates the foregoing
recitals and findings.
SECTION TWO. Amendment. The City Council of the City of Atascadero hereby
amends Section 9-6.186(c) of Title 9 of the Municipal Code as follows:

activities, and medical marijuana deliveries prohibited.
(1) Medical marijuana dispensaries are prohibited in all zones in the city and shall not be
established or operated anywhere in the city.
(2) Marijuana cultivation facilities are prohibited in all zones in the city and shall not be
established or operated anywhere in the city. This prohibition shall not apply to a
qualified patient, as defined by Health and Safety Code section 11362.7(f), who
cultivates medical marijuana, either by himself or herself or with assistance from his or
her primary caregiver, as defined by Health and Safety Code sections 11362.5(e) and

Assessment for the Fiscal Year 2016-2017 tax roll.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of

public nuisance, thereby creating a hazard to public health.
The City Council of the City of Atascadero finds and declares that vegetative growth and/or
refuse on specified parcels of property are seasonal and recurrent nuisances. Such seasonal and
recurrent nuisances shall be abated in accordance with the provisions of City and State laws. No
further hearings need to be held, and it shall be sufficient to mail a notice to the owner of the
property as their address appears upon the current assessment roll.
SECTION 2. A description of the parcel of lots of private property upon which, or in
front of which, said nuisances exist, according to the official Assessment Map of said City of
Atascadero, shall be posted annually in the office of the City Clerk and referred to as Exhibit A
(Vegetative Growth) and Exhibit B (Weeds & Refuse).
SECTION 3. The City Clerk or designee is hereby ordered and directed to mail written
notices of the proposed abatement to all persons owning property described in accordance with
Section 6-13.08 of the Atascadero Municipal Code.
SECTION 4. Pursuant to Section 6-13.10 of the Atascadero Municipal Code, the City
Council shall hear and consider all objections or protests to the required removal of said
vegetative growth and/or refuse. The City Clerk shall post a copy of the public hearing notice in
accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act.
SECTION 5. Pursuant to Section 6-13.17 of the Atascadero Municipal Code, if the
owner does not abate the hazard, it will be abated by the city contractor. The cost of the
abatement plus a 150% administrative fee and county fee will be assessed upon the county
property tax bill, and constitute a lien upon such land until paid.

0028).
DISCUSSION:
Background:
In May 2005, the City Council established Community Facilities District (CFD) No. 2005-
1 to finance a portion of the cost for new Police, Fire and park services needed to serve
new residential development within the City. The Government Code of the State of
California, commencing with Section 53311, allows the formation of such districts to
provide a financial mechanism to pay for such new services through the levy of a
Special Tax against the properties that will receive the new services.
There are currently three (3) separate residential projects proposed for annexation into
Community Facilities District (CFD) No. 2005-1. These development projects were
approved through legislative actions by the City Council, including zoning modifications
through Planned Development overla ys, in order to allow development at the density
and lot size requested by the applicants. These projects have all received tentative
map approval, and are conditioned to annex into the CFD prior to recordation of their
final maps.
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/12/16
Annexation No. 14: 5310 Carrizo, Tract 2625. Includes a 12-unit Planned
Development #32 overlay. Project entitlements amended by the City Council in
January 2016.
Annexation No. 15: 8570 El Corte, Tract 2802. Includes 7-unit Planned
Development #17 overlay. Project entitlements originally approved by the City
Council in June 2007.
Annexation No. 16: 10380 El Camino Real, Tentative Parcel Map #AT 14-0028.
Includes a 4-unit Planned Development #7 overlay. Project entitlements
approved by City Council in February 2014.
On February 23, 2016, the City Council approved resolution s of “intent to annex” these
three (3) development projects into CFD No. 2005-1. The annexation boundary was
established and set the place and time for a public hearing (April 1 2, 2016). The
Annexation boundary map was then recorded with the San Luis Obispo County
Recorder’s Office.
Analysis:
The Resolutions and Ordinances currently before Council are the final necessary steps
for the establishment of Annexations No. 14, 15, and 16 to CFD 2005-1 to supplement
the funding of new Police, Fire, and park services for the three new residential
development projects. The annual amount of Special Tax levied against developed
Single-Family Residential parcels in the CFD for Fiscal Year 2015-2016 was $ $650.08
per unit, which is subject to an annual escalator. The money collected can only be used
to fund new public services authorized to be funded by the State Mello-Roos Act and
identified within the Rate and Method of Apportionment, and cannot be used to supp ort
existing services.
The City of Atascadero has established a policy as part of the General Plan that
recognizes that determining the best use of land based solely on revenues to the City is
not good public policy. The City developed its General Plan to provide a full range of
residential land uses and not simply to generate additional sales tax. Policies of this
type promote the development of quality housing projects but they come at a cost. That
cost is that new residential development must pay for n ew services that are in addition
to those currently provided.
Shortly after adoption of the General Plan, the City initiated a study to determine what
the financial impact was of adding a new median priced home in the City. The study
looked at all revenues that the property and new residents would generate (property
tax, sales tax, fees paid, etc.) and the cost to provide services to those properties and
residents at the level that was being provided to existing residents. The study clearly
showed that for each new median priced home built in the City, the cost to provide the
services significantly exceeded the revenues generated by the home. Thus, as new
homes continued to be built, services such as police, fire and park services continued
to be eroded for all residents.
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/12/16
At the time Council was faced with a choice: (1) deny all new residential developments;
or (2) allow continued residential development and continue to lower service levels
(police officers per resident, etc…); or (3) find a way to ma ke the new homes pay for
the services that they receive. At that time, the Council adopted the following fiscal
policies to help mitigate the fiscal implications of residential growth:
To ensure that adequate funding is in place to provide essential servi ces to new
residents without diluting services for existing residents by:
o Formation of a Community Services District to fund the addition of the
necessary police, fire and parks personnel needed to provide services to
these new residents.
o Requiring EACH project that comes before Council to annex into the
newly formed Community Facilities District.
o To form road maintenance districts in order to provide an ongoing revenue
source needed to maintain new, expanded or recently accepted roads.
To require that new growth pay for the expansion of facilities and infrastructure
necessary to serve the expanding population.
To plan community growth with service and maintenance funding requirements in
mind.
These policies continue to be a cornerstone of the City’s adopt ed financial plan. The
CFD currently contributes funds for 2 police positions, 2 firefighter positions and one
parks worker. (An additional new police officer position is slated to be funded from the
CFD as of July 1, 2016.) The City established a Community Facilities District in 2005
consistent with this policy and a number of projects have been annexed into the CFD as
a requirement prior to recordation of a final map.
After the close of the current proposed annexation’s Public Hearing, the City Council
may adopt the attached Draft Resolutions A, B, and C, which officially establish the
annexation of territories to Community Facilities District 2005-1. If approved, the
Resolutions authorize the levy of special taxes within the Annexation areas.
After adoption of the Resolutions, the City Clerk will hold a landowner election, verifying
that the property owner(s) wish to annex into the City’s CFD. If the landowners elect to
annex into the CFD, the City Council will certify the elections and introduce for first
reading, by title only, Draft Ordinances A, B and C, authorizing the special additional
CFD taxes for Annexations No. 14, 15, and 16. Once the annexation election is
completed, the projects’ final subdivision maps will be brought to Planning Commission
and/or Council at a later date to finalize the subdivision s. Following completion of the
annexation, Staff anticipates levying taxes on the parcels in the 2016 -2017 tax year.
Conclusion:
The residential subdivisions at 5310 Carrizo, 8570 El Corte, and 10380 El Camino Real
were conditioned to be fiscally neutral through annexation into the CFD. Annexation into
CFD 2005-1 will satisfy the projects’ conditions of approval and allow for final maps to
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/12/16
be recorded. A total of 23 units will be annexed into the CFD upon recordation of their
respective maps.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The establishment of Annexation s No. 14, 15, and 16 into the CFD is intended to
mitigate the fiscal impact of residential development on the City. These three projects,
totaling 23 units, would provide $14,951.84 annually at build out, based on the current
Actual Rates, levied to fund the expansion of Police, Fire, and Park Services associated
with the new residential units.

53326 of the Act requiring a minimum of 90 days following the adoption of this Resolution to
elapse before said special election is for the protection of the qualified electors of the territory
to be annexed to the District. The ballots to be executed by the qualified electors of the area to
be annexed to the District contains a waiver of any time limit pertaining to the conduct of the
election and a waiver of any requirement for ballot measure analysis and arguments in
connection with the election. Accordingly, this City Council finds and determines that, to the
extent that the qualified elector submits its ballot, the qualified elector will have been fully
apprised of and have agreed to the shortened time for the election and waiver of ballot
measure analysis and arguments, and will have thereby been fully protected in these
proceedings. This City Council also finds and determines that the City Clerk has concurred in
the shortened time for the election.
SECTION 15. This Resolution shall take effect upon its adoption.

Atascadero City Council
Staff Report – Public Works Department
Sales Tax Measure F-14 2015/2016 Rehabilitation Project
Engineering Design Services Award
RECOMMENDATION:
Council authorize City Manager to execute a contract with Rick Engineering Company
to provide professional engineering services for the Measure F-14 Fiscal Year
2015/2016 Pavement Rehabilitation Project , for an amount not to exceed $135,150.
REPORT IN BRIEF:
Staff solicited proposals from qualified consultants for Professional Engineering
Services for the Measure F-14 2015/2016 Pavement Rehabilitation Project. Four
proposals were received, reviewed and ranked. Staff determined Rick Engineering
Company was the most qualified firm to complete this project and has negotiated a final
scope and fee for the work.
A separate Measure F-14 2015/2016 Maintenance Project is currently being designed
by City staff and will be bid and constructed separately.
DISCUSSION:
Sales Tax Measure F-14 was approved by voters in November 2014 to f und the repair
and maintenance of neighborhood roads and other roadways. A five year project list
has been developed based on the City-wide Pavement Management System roadway
inventory and “Critical Point Management” methodology. For the 2015/2016 Fiscal
Year, the following roadway segments have been identified for rehabilitation. (See
Exhibit 1 for a map of locations.)
Cascabel Road – From Santa Lucia Road to the North End
Los Gatos Road – From Santa Lucia Road to San Marcos Road
San Andres Avenue – From Santa Lucia Road to San Marcos Road
ITEM NUMBER: C-1
DATE: 04/12/16
San Clemente Avenue – From Portola Road to San Marcos East
Valle Avenue – From Curbaril Avenue to Palomar Avenue
A total of 4.3 lane miles are included as part of this rehabilitation project. As part of the
design contract the engineering consultant will provide topographic survey services,
pavement engineering analysis, complete final Plans, Specifications and Estimates
(PS&E), and provide engineering assistance during the bid process.
Prior to advertisement of the Request for Proposal (RFP), a Roadway Deflection,
Coring, and Pavement Rehabilitation Recommendation Report was completed by Earth
Systems Pacific under a separate contract. This report includes pavement conditions,
base and subgrade conditions, and preliminary recommendations for pavement
rehabilitation. This information will used by the selected engineering consultant to
determine final pavement treatment methods.
In addition to pavement rehabilitation, the engineering consultant has included work
scope to provide drainage design necessary to preserve and protect the roadway
surface. This work may include storm drain inlet and culvert repair or replacement, and
installation of new or repaired edge treatments such as asphalt dike and shoulder
backing.
Staff advertised the RFP on February 29, 2016, with proposals due March 22, 2016. A
total of four proposals were received from Pavement Engineering Incorporated (PEI),
Diversified Project Services International (DPSI), North Coast Engineering, and Rick
Engineering Company. The firms were ranked according to e xperience with similar
projects, responsiveness to City needs, experience of key personnel and other factors.
Following ranking, Staff negotiated with the top ranked consultant to further refine the
scope of work and the cost proposal. Engineering Design fees are typically in the range
of 5-10% of total project cost for this type of work. This engineering contract is
calculated to be 8.8% of total project cost, which is within the typical range and is
considered reasonable.
Staff is recommending that Rick Engineering Company be selected to perform the
consulting services for the Measure F-14 2015/2016 Rehabilitation Project. Staff was in
agreement that Rick Engineering is the most qualified consultant, with particular
strengths that best fit this project. These strengths include a strong local project
manager with extensive pavement rehabilitation experience, significant company
experience with public works, and a thorough understanding of the pro cess to prepare a
biddable and buildable set of construction plans in an expedited time frame.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This action will result in the expenditure of up to $135,150 in budgeted Sales Tax
Measure F-14 funds. The Sales Tax Measure has been collecti ng fees since April 1,
2015, and currently has a sufficient balance for this work.
ITEM NUMBER: C-1
DATE: 04/12/16
If necessary, the City will execute a separate contract or contract extension for the
Construction Support Services with the engineering consultant once the Construction
Contract has been awarded. Additionally, the City will execute a separate contract with
a materials testing firm for Quality Control/Quality Assurance during project
construction. These fees will be in addition to the fees shown.
Deflection Testing, Coring, and Recommendations (Previously Completed –
Earth Systems Pacific) $ 22,750
Engineering Design, Topographic Survey 135,150
Construction Contract 1,100,000
Testing and Inspection @ 9% 100,000
Contingency @ 16% 178,950
Total Estimated Expenditure: $ 1,536,850
Sales Tax Measure F-14 Fund $ 1,536,850
Total Funding Sources $ 1,536,850
ESTIMATED FUNDING SOURCES
ESTIMATED EXPENDITURES
ALTERNATIVES:
Council may reject staff’s recommendation and direct staff to reconsider the design firm
choice. Staff does not recommend this action as the project already has an expedited
design schedule, and negotiating with another design firm or re-advertising the RFP will
likely push the construction timeline into the rainy season.

Atascadero Planning Commission
Staff Report – Community Development Department
General Plan & Housing Element
Annual Progress Report 2015
(PLN 2006-1133)
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Commission recommends:
Council authorize submittal of the attached 2015 Annual General Plan and
Housing Report to the State of California.
DISCUSSION:
Background:
The State of California requires all cities to file an Annual General Plan Progress Report
to the Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and an annu al Housing Element
Progress Report to the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).
The purpose of this report is to monitor the City’s implementation of the City’s General
Plan including the City’s Housing Element, one of the required element s that make up
the General Plan.
General Plan Background:
California planning law requires the City to adopt a “comprehensive, long -term General
Plan for physical development” (Government Code 65300). The City’s General Plan
was adopted in 2002 after public outreach and input effort by the City Council, Planning
Commission, City staff and its consultants.
The 2025 General Plan expresses the City’s goals for the distribution and character of
land uses and development. The General Plan is comprehensive in terms of the issues
addressed and includes the City’s entire physical development areas. Planning activities
including zoning approvals and amendments, subdivision approvals, capital
improvements, and redevelopment activities need to be consistent with the City’s
General Plan. The General Plan goals, policies, and programs guide short- and long-
range decision making.
The City’s Annual report is formatted into three sections:
Section 1: Legal Requirements of the Annual Report
Section 2: Review of implementation programs that further the goals, objectives,
and policies that are identified in the General Plan.
ITEM NUMBER: C-2
DATE: 04/12/16
Section 3: Review the progress and implementation of the City’s adopted
Housing Element.
Development Activities for 2015:
A total of 88 planning applications for various permits including tree removals, Design
Review Committee Reviews, Conditional Use Permit Amendments, Administrative Use
Permits, Subdivision Maps, and new Conditional Use Permits were received in 2015..
Major development approvals in 2015 included the following:
Update of the City’s Housing Element for 2014-2019
Approval of the Principal Mixed-Use Project
Approval of the Atascadero Family Apartments
Implementation of the “Improve Atascadero Signage” Campaign
Assistance with the Highway 41 Transportation Corridor Study
In addition to processing new applications, other planning projects in the development
review process in 2015 include:
Eagle Ranch Specific Plan
Del Rio Road Commercial Area Specific Plan (Walmart / Annex) Development
Atascadero Groves / Halcon Road General Plan Amendment
Economic Development
El Camino Real Preliminary Corridor Study
A total of 1,095 building permit applications were received and 983 building permits
issued in 2015. Of these applications, 662 permit applications were completed “in-
house.
General Plan Updates and Maintenance:
City staff has reviewed the policies and programs (the implementation tools) of the
City’s General Plan. At this time, the City has implemented many of the programs called
out in the 2025 General Plan. Many of the programs are labeled “on-going”. This
signifies that City staff is continually performing these tasks on an as needed basis. In
January 2015, the City Council adopted the 2014 -2019 Housing Element and
corresponding Safety Element updates.
Over the last year, City staff has taken an inventory of land uses along the El Camino
Real and Traffic Way corridors. This inventory was formalized through a study of
commercial vacancies and residential trends focusing on El Camino Real. The findings
of this study conclude that the City is currently experiencing a shortage of larger
commercial parcels that can accommodate job-based commercial uses. The study also
concluded that the City’s job housing imbalance continues to lean towards ho using,
further stymieing the City’s ability to maintain services. Long term implementation tools
in response to this study will be evaluated in the near future as the City Council guides
staff towards implementation of the General Plan.
ITEM NUMBER: C-2
DATE: 04/12/16
In the near-term, staff is currently in the process of creating a Zoning Handbook as an
excerpt from the Municipal Code to aid prospective development and to act as a user -
friendly guide for customers. The current zoning regulations are difficult to decipher in
the Municipal Code format and can be reformatted and put into a separate document
that can be available to the public. This work can be done without amending the
municipal code.
Major Project Updates:
The following is an update of the major projects that are currently under construction or
entitlement review:
Del Rio Road Commercial Area Specific Plan
Approved in 2012, the Del Rio Road Commercial Area Specific Plan is projected to
contain a 123,100 square foot (sf) Walmart Supercenter on approximately 26 acres. The
Annex component will contain approximately 121,000 sf of commercial uses including
general retail, food and beverage and drive-through uses on 13 acres. City staff has
approved a plan line for circulation improvements and is actively working with Walmart’s
design team on grading and building permits. Grading permits are expected to be
submitted in Quarter 2 of 2016 with permit issuance expected as soon as possible and
construction commencing late Quarter 3 / early Quarter 4 of 2016.
Additionally, staff is working with the Annex Developer, Madonna Enterprises, on uses
for The Annex, as well as surrounding parcels not tied to the Del Rio Road Commercial
Area Specific Plan.
Eagle Ranch Specific Plan
The Eagle Ranch Specific Plan is currently being analyzed a s a part of the
environmental review process with a Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Draft
Specific Plan due out this year. The Draft EIR and Draft Specific Plan are experiencing
some delays as technical studies continue to properly analyze traffic and fiscal impacts.
Preliminary El Camino Real Corridor Plan
In November 2015, staff was directed by the City Council to perform a vacancy study for
the El Camino Real Corridor. This direction was given to staff due to a number of
applications pending for Council authorization to proceed with General Plan
amendments to convert non-residential land use designations to residential uses. Staff
performed a preliminary land use corridor study to examine vacancies, potential areas
to be reviewed for revised land use studies, and a review of residential units that may
be potentially constructed within the next 18 months.
Improve Atascadero Signage Campaign
In 2015, City staff worked with the Chamber of Commerce, and business owners, to
drop signage fees and actively “improve” signage along the business corridors within
the City. City staff has taken a different, business friendly, approach to regulation of
signage and enforcement of the City’s existing sign code.
ITEM NUMBER: C-2
DATE: 04/12/16
2015 Housing Activities and Report:
The second section of the yearly General Plan review is the Housing Element Report.
The purpose of the Housing Report is to monitor the implementation of the City’s
General Plan Housing Element and progress toward meeting the City’s Regional
Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). The allocations are targets for the production of
affordable housing for various income groups (as defined in Table 1 below) throughout
the City.
Table 1
State of California Income Level Definitions
Very Low Income Lower Income Moderate Income Above Moderate
50% of County
Median
80% of County
Median
120% of County Median Greater than 120% of
County Median
San Luis Obispo County Median Income for a Family of Four (4): $77,000 for 2014
These regional housing allocations are required to be used by the City when updating
the Housing Element. They are the basis for assuring that adequate sites and zoning
are available to accommodate at least the number of units allocated. These housing
allocation numbers are not housing unit quotas that the City must achieve within the
time frame of their next Housing Element update, but housing targets that the City must
provide zoning for and reduce obstacles to development.
2015 Housing Production:
For 2015, the City issued building permits on 97 new residential units. Table 2 shows
the breakdown of new residential units for 2014 that were issued by income type. This is
first year that the City has had a decrease in housing production since 2008. There are
many housing units in the pipeline, however permit issuance has slowed due to the
completion of the dormant permit program.
Table 2
2015 New Residential Housing Units Building Permits Issued

Secondary Units Issued 0 0 1 1 2

As of January 1, 2014, a new reporting period has started for the 2014 -2019 Housing

Element cycle. Table 3 shows the percentage that the City has met for each income
category for the new reporting period. These percentages only reflect units that have
been issued a building permit and do not reflect entitled units or the units from the
various projects that have been approved. The City has exceeded its target of moderate
income housing for the reporting period. There were also permits issued for 53 units
that were slightly above the moderate price range.
The RHNA target number for 2014 through 2019 for the total number of housing units is
393. Based on the current rate of development, and what is in the pipeline for 2016, we
will reach our RHNA several years ahead of the end of the RHNA cycle, likely in 2016.
Table 3
RHNA Totals By Percentage 2014-2019
Very Low Low Moderate Above Moderate Total
Percentage of Target Goal 3% 1% 188% 90%
Total Units Issued 3 1 130 148 282
The reporting period ended on December 31st; however since that time a substantial
number of building permits for affordable units such as the Atascadero Family
Apartments, have been issued. The numbers for 2016 are likely to be much higher than
2015 and will exceed RHNA.
With the sunset of the Dormant Permit Program, the availability of projects that were
considered “off the shelf” has dwindled substantially. With raw land for development
within the City at a premium, developers are now seeking projects that are considered
“heavy lifts” for residential construction.
2015 Affordable Housing Production:
Of the total building permits issued, a total of 44 units were considered affordable. The
majority of these affordable units were located at the Villages at Oakhaven and
Woodridge Townhomes. Similar to the previous reporting period, permits that were
issued for these formerly approved projects have sales prices that fall below the
“moderate” income group maximum sales price for both 3 bedroom and 4 bedroom
units established by San Luis Obispo’s County’s Previously Approved Project Formula .
Staff has deemed these units as moderate.
The median home selling price in Atascadero for a new or existing home or condo in
2014 according the California Realtors Association was $428,850.
2016 Housing Production Projections:
The City expects housing production levels to remain constant in 2016. Housing
construction will continue to be strong on the south end of town as Southside Villas,
Woodridge Townhomes and the Knolls at the Avenida (Atascadero Family Apartments)
ITEM NUMBER: C-2
DATE: 04/12/16
will all be in construction. The City has over 600 units that are available for construction
within the next 18 months. These units are all entitled and can enter into the building
permit process at any time. Some of the major entitled projects include:
Colony Square
The Acacias
Walmart RMF
Principal Mixed-Use
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.

Section 1
A. Purpose of the Annual Report
Section 65400 of the California Government Code requires the City to file an annual
report addressing the status of the General Plan and progress made toward goals and
objectives. This annual report provides a means to monitor the success of implementing
the General Plan and determine if changes need to be made in the plan or its
implementation programs.
The City of Atascadero held a publicly noticed meeting to discuss the finding s of the
General Plan Annual report with the Planning Commission on March 15, 2016. The City
Council accepted this report and adopted resolution 2016-0__ on April ___, 2016 for
submittal to both the Office of Research and Planning (OPR) and Housing and
Community Development Department.
B. Purpose of the General Plan
The General Plan serves two primary functions. First, the General Plan provides
information. Second, it states the community's goals, objectives, policies, and
implementation measures (i.e., ways to achieve the goals and objectives). The General
Plan is available for public review at the Front Counter at the Community Development
Department, the San Luis Obispo County Atascadero Branch Public Library and also on
the City’s website. Each member of the City Council and the Planning Commission has
a copy of the General Plan, as well as each City department.
As an informational document, the General Plan describes existing conditions, makes
projections, and establishes a vision for the community's future. The General Plan
provides the public with information about the City and the direction that it seeks to
move. It also provided the public with a blueprint for how, when and where will the City
grow through 2025.
As a policy document, the General Plan establishes goals and policies for decision
makers. Using these policies, the City Council and Planning Commission take steps
toward achieving the larger goals of the City. The City focuses implementation
programs contained in the General Plan through day to day operations of the City.
C. Status of the Adopted Elements of the City's General Plan
State law requires that the General Plan include seven elements. These elements must
cover the following topics: Land Use, Circulation, Housing, Safety, Noise, Conservation,
and Open Space. State law also allows the City to adopt any additional general plan
elements that the City deems necessary. The City of Atascadero General Plan
combines the Land Use, and Open Space and Conservation elements into one singul ar
section. The following is a breakdown of the City’s General Plan:
