Mayor O'Malley closed the Public Comment period.

DATE: 02/14/06
Atascadero City Council
Staff Report Community Development Department
7705 Navajoa Avenue Planned Development
ZCH 2004-0092
(Tanner / Fragione)
RECOMMENDATION:
Council adopt on second reading, by title only, Draft Ordinance A approving Zone
Change 2005-0092 based on findings.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed project consists of a Zone Map Amendment to establish a PD -25 Overlay
Zone over the subject site with a corresponding Master Plan of Development (CUP) and
vesting Tentative Tract Map that would allow a 5 -unit detached residential Planned
Development under the requirements of the PD -25 Overlay Zone.
On January 24, 2006, the City Council conducted a public hearing to consider
establishment of a PD -25 overlay zone and application of the overlay zone change on
the subject parcel.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Based on findings from the Taussig Study, revenue from new residential development
including property tax revenues; vehicle licensing fees, sales taxes, and other revenues
are insufficient to cover the maintenance and emergency services costs of new
development. Based on the revenue projections from the Taussig Study, the City has
developed standard conditions of approval for new development projects that require
the cost of maintenance and emergency services to be funded by the project through a
combination of road assessment districts, landscape and lighting districts and
community facilities districts.

Background
On January 17, 2006, the Planning Commission recommended project approval on a 5-
0 vote. The Commission supported the proposed use and appearance of the project.
Although there was some discussion of non -tax producing uses such as office use on
the ground floor of the mixed-use portion of the project, the Commission agreed to
forward the project to the City Council on a unanimous vote.

ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 02/14/06
Surrounding Land Use and Setting:
North: Commercial Retail East. Residential Single Family
South: Commercial Retail West.. Commercial Retail
The project site is within the General Commercial General Plan Land Use Designation
and is zoned Commercial Retail, which allows the establishment of a Planned
Development Overlay Zone for mixed-use development. The properties along EI
Camino Real are developed with commercial retail and office uses. Properties along
Hermosilla Avenue to the east are developed as single-family residential.
ANALYSIS:
Prosect Density / Inclusionary Workforce Housing
The proposed General Plan land use allows 16 units per acre. The City's General Plan
allows a 15% density bonus for projects that incorporate superior architectural and site
plan appearance amenity. The applicant has worked closely with staff to qualify for this
bonus. In addition, the General Plan and City Council's Inclusionary Policy identifies a
35% density bonus if the State requirements for affordable units are met. In order to
qualify for the density bonus, the State requires that either 10% of the pre -density bonus
project units be deed restricted as very low-income units, or 20% of the pre -density
bonus units be deed restricted as low-income units. The Commission is recommending
that the low or very -low income units within the redevelopment area be deed restricted
for 45 years. The applicant is requesting four, superior appearance density bonus units
and nine, affordable state density bonus units for a total of 40 multi -family units on the
project site. In exchange for the density bonus, the applicant is proposing six low
income units for 45 years (CUP Condition 13, TTM Condition 13).

According to the San Luis Obispo County Department of Planning & Building, a three-
bedroom low level affordable unit only qualifies if the sales price does not exceed
$181,288 with a deed restriction commitment, and a two-bedroom low unit only qualifies
if the sales price does not exceed $151,096 with a deed restriction, and a one -bedroom
moderate unit only qualifies if the sales price does not exceed $134,232 with a deed
restriction. These numbers are subject to change.
City Council Mixed -Use Policy
In June 2004, the City Council established the following policies for mixed-use projects:
1. Implement the Taussig Study on residential portion;
The project is consistent with the policy requirement to comply with the Taussig
is Study (Condition CUP 20/TTM 8). Refer to fiscal impact analysis section for
expanded discussion.
2. Require commercial to be constructed before or simultaneously with the
residential portion. Commercial permit(s) must be obtained first and the first
permit to be finaled in the project shall be the commercial permit(s).
The project is consistent with this requirement (Condition CUP 22).
3. Require at least 50% of the project to be commercial. The commercial
component cannot include mini -storage or other non sales tax producing uses,
including office.
The project is not entirely consistent with this requirement. Approximately 44%
of the site is devoted to mixed use development with the remaining 56%
comprised of residential land use. This is due to the slope of the property is not
feasible for deeper commercial development and there are native oak trees on
site which limit how much construction can occur and where that construction
may take place. In, addition, the applicant is proposing a state density bonus that
provides additional deed -restricted affordable housing. Due to the fact that the
policy is not an ordinance, the project could be approved as proposed.

ITEM NUMBER: B - 1
DATE: 02/14/06
Mini -storage is not a permitted use under the proposed PD -27, however office
uses are. Of the 8,664 square feet of commercial use, 2,166 square feet of
office/indoor recreational space in support of the proposed residential project is
proposed. The Planning Commission recommends that the Council retain office
and/or indoor recreational space (or other similar uses) as allowed uses under
PD -27.
Appearance Review
According to the applicant, the project has been designed to meet the standards of the
Atascadero Municipal Code and the Appearance Review Manual. The Planning
Commission recommends that the City Council find the project as providing high quality
architectural, landscape, and site design that warrants the granting of special
development standards.
Four new buildings are proposed on site. Each building consists of two wings
separated by a breezeway and is three stories in height. Building A consists of 2,166
square feet of shared community facilities including the manager's office and recreation
room and 2,166 square feet of retail space all on the first floor. On the second and third
floors, 4,332 square feet of residential space is proposed. Building B consists of 4,332
square feet of retail space on the ground floor and 4,332 square feet of residential
space on the second and third floors. Buildings C and D and include 25,700 square feet
of residential space.
Site Plan
As proposed, the project includes street frontage improvements along El Camino Real.
One -access point is proposed from El Camino Real All common trash and recycle
enclosures will be located in the central parking area. Trash enclosures will be
screened from public view and shall be designed to be consistent with the proposed
building architecture (CUP Condition 7). Elevated commercial entrances and patios are
proposed to enhance pedestrian scale and orientation of the buildings.

Landscape Design
The preliminary landscape plan has been designed to retain the two mature native oak
trees within an open space area at the center of the site. The site includes landscaping
designed to enhance the appearance of the site from EI Camino Real and throughout
the residential common areas. Street trees have been incorporated into the proposed
landscape plan and additional shade trees are proposed in the parking and common
area landscaping. Proposed landscape plant material has been conditioned to include
the use of native and drought -resistant trees, shrubs and groundcovers (CUP Condition
10). Pedestrian pathways and sidewalks connect the residential units, common open
space areas, and commercial uses. In staff's opinion, the proposed landscape plan and
palette, as conditioned, meets the Planned Development appearance review
requirements.
A condition has been included to increase the tree planting and provided masonry
privacy walls in areas adjacent to single-family residential along the northern portion of
the project site (CUP Condition 10 and 11). An additional finding has been included to
acknowledge that the applicant is requesting, through the state density bonus

DATE: 02/14/06
concession requirement, that the project does not include the standard Council -required
landscape buffering area. Typically an expanded buffer area is required adjacent to
single-family residential zoned properties which occurs on the north side of the project
site.
The proposed landscape also includes the code -required lot coverage standard of 300
square feet per unit (12,000 square feet total) within the central and perimeter
landscaped areas. In addition, the project meets the 25% landscape area requirement
within the landscaped and decorative pavement areas (CUP Condition 10).
Architecture, Materials, and Color
The applicant has worked closely with staff regarding the architecture, materials and
colors proposed for the project. The project has been designed in a Contemporary
Mediterranean style that incorporates mission tile roofing, exposed arched porticos and
windows, decorative iron elements, and window awnings. In addition, the proposed
color scheme for the development includes a variety of compatible earth tone schemes.
Minor conditions of approval have been included regarding the exterior material finish
(CUP Condition 7).
Mixed -Use Buildings
The two buildings along EI Camino Real are designed as vertical mixed-use buildings
with 6,498 square feet of commercial retail space and 2,166 square feet of office/indoor
recreational space on the ground floors, and 16 residential living units on the second
and third floors. The mixed-use buildings include features such as stylized awnings,
recessed stucco elements, larger store front windows, and decorative storefront
materials on the ground floor. A central breezeway provides access to the upper
residential floors. The upper floor residential units include balconies and balconettes.

Through the state density bonus program, maximum parking standards are mandated
by the State of California for affordable residential projects. This code allows a
preemption for city code required parking. Under the State Density Bonus parking
allowance, 72 parking spaces are required for the on-site residential use. The applicant
is proposing a parking plan (Refer to Attachment 4) in which the commercial uses share
parking in specifically designated on-site spaces based on differing peak hour usage.
Typically, residential peak hour use is in the evening with commercial peak hour use
during the day. In addition, the commercial uses are limited to uses that would not
significantly impact the available shared parking. The Planning Commission has the
authority to recommend further reduced parking requirements based on shared peak
hour usage to a maximum of 75% of the most intensive use. The reduction would bring

the parking requirement to 54 spaces for the project. The Planning Commission
recommends that the project, as proposed with 68 spaces, be approved utilizing the
shared peak hour parking reduction allowance.
Circulation
A Traffic Impact Study was produced for this project which indicates project -specific
traffic impacts are insignificant. However, the City Engineer has worked with the
applicant regarding project -specific cumulative impacts to San Anselmo between EI
Camino Real and U.S. Highway 101 where inadequate levels of traffic service are
experienced. A mitigation measure has been included to widen west bound San
Anselmo, between the US 101 north bound on-ramp and the K -Mart driveway, to
provide a landscaped median, two west bound lanes and a bike lane. This
improvement will provide a dedicated lane for traffic entering the US 101 north bound on
ramp, which will improve the operation of the US 101 north bound off ramp and east
and west bound San Anselmo.
This project is required to pay Development Impact Fee per the Circulation System of
Atascadero. The design and construction of these improvements are eligible for credit
to the fees. Administration of designing, approval and construction of these
improvements are not eligible for credit to the fees (Refer to Mitigation Measure 15.a).
Frontage Improvements
Thejroect shall improve the EI Camino Real frontage to City standards including curb,
p p
gutter, and sidewalks.
Site Drainage
The project is designed to allow all existing upstream flows to pass through the site.
The applicant has indicated that the increase in on-site flow due to the construction of
impervious surfaces will be detained with underground storage facilities. Although
these facilities have not been identified on the grading plans, they will be required and
designed to detain the difference in flow between the theoretical, post -construction, 50 -
year storm event and the pre -construction, 2 -year storm event while releasing it at the
pre -construction 2 -year storm rate in accordance with the City Engineering Standards.
The applicant will be required to provide calculations demonstrating there will be no
increase in the rate of storm flow from the site and the storm water facilities will be
required to filter silts and pollution out of the storm water prior to leaving the site (CUP
Condition 25).

Wastewater
Sanitary sewer will be connected to existing sewer facilities in EI Camino Real. The
Wastewater Treat Plant and the City collection system have sufficient capacity to handle
the new flow.
FISCAL IMPACT:
In 2003, the City of Atascadero hired David Taussig and Associates to prepare a fiscal
model to satisfy the General Plan requirement for both the Woodlands (Las Lomas) and
Dove Creek projects. The model was developed with comprehensive input for the
Administrative Services, Public Works, Police, and Fire Departments to capture the
actual cost of providing maintenance and emergency services to new developments.
The model analyzed the costs associated with road maintenance, storm drainage
maintenance, landscape maintenance, lighting maintenance, open space maintenance,
recreational facility maintenance, police emergency services, fire emergency services,
and community park maintenance.
The model results demonstrated that revenue from new residential development
including property tax revenues, vehicle licensing fees, sales taxes, and other revenues
are insufficient to cover the maintenance and emergency services costs of new
development.
Based on the revenue projections from the Woodlands project and Dove Creek, the City
has developed standard conditions of approval for new development projects that
require the cost of maintenance and emergency services to be funded by the project
through a combination of road assessment districts, landscape and lighting districts, and
community facilities districts. The creation of these assessment districts mitigates any
negative fiscal impacts of a project consistent with General Plan Policy 15.3.8.
The EI Camino Court project is somewhat different than the Woodlands Project
regarding the maintenance of on-site roads and common areas. While the Woodlands
Project resulted in the creation of both road and landscape maintenance districts, EI
Camino Court proposes to create a homeowners association (HOA) to fund the
maintenance of all on-site facilities. The creation of an HOA has the same effect as the
maintenance districts to mitigate maintenance costs. The HOA will not fund emergency
service costs related to the project, therefore, the project will be required to participate
in the community facilities district (CFD). The CFD results in an annual property tax
levy of $440 per unit to fund additional police and fire personnel beyond the City's
current staffing levels. The City has established a CFD, road maintenance and
landscape and lighting district that the proposed project will be annexed into prior to
recordation of the Final Map.

project must "offer certain redeeming features to compensate for the requested
modification." The table shown below outlines the Council policy on Planned
Development benefits. In order to approve this project, the Planning Commission must
find the project offers all of the tier one benefits to qualify for a planned development
project. The applicant is requesting that the buffering requirement be reduced as a City
concession required by the State's Density Bonus Law.

General Plan Consistency
Thero osed project is consistent with the following General Plan Land Use and
p p
Housing Element Policies:
Land Use Program 1.1.7: "Within the Urban Core encourage infill development or
revitalization or reuse of land already committed to urban development where utilities
and public services exist.
Land Use Policy 2.1: "Ensure that new development is compatible with existing and
surrounding neighborhoods"
Land Use Policy 3.1: "Encourage retail businesses at efficient and attractive nodes
along El Camino Real and Morro Road with mixed office and residential uses between
those nodes."
Housing Element Policy 1.1: "Encourage steady production of new housing, including
mixed-use projects in commercial land use areas, to meet the needs of all household
types in the City."
Housing Element Policy 2.1: "Promote development and construction of new housing
units for ownership, especially by low and moderate income families"
Housing Element Policy 4.3: "Encourage attractive architecture and site landscaping
that respect terrain and native trees".
The Planning Commission recommends that the proposed mixed-use project is
consistent with the goals and policies of the Land Use Element and the Housing
Element. The project will provide 40 residential units integrated into a commercial/office
development along EI Camino Real that includes affordable units under the state
density bonus program. As conditioned, the project incorporates elements that are
consistent with the scale and character of the surrounding residential neighborhood and
commercial corridor along EI Camino Real, and includes cost recovery for City services.

Findings
General Plan Amendment
As specified in the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, the following findings for
the proposed Zone Text Change, Zone Map Change, Conditional Use Permit (Master
Plan of Development), and native tree removal must be made in order to approve the
proposed project.
Establishment of PD -27
Modification of development standards or processing requirements is warranted to
promote orderly and harmonious development.
1. Modification of development standards or processing requirements will enhance
the opportunity to best utilize special characteristics of an area and will have a
beneficial effect on the area.
2. Benefits derived from the overlay zone cannot be reasonably achieved through
existing development standards or processing requirements.
Planned Development Overlay
As specified in the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, the following specific
findings for the proposed Zone Change shall be made in order to approve the proposed
project:
1. The proposed zone change is in conformance with the adopted General Plan
Goals, Policies, and Programs and the. overall intent of the General Plan.
2. The proposed zone change is compatible with existing development,
neighborhoods and the environment.
3. The proposed zone change will not create any new significant and unavoidable
impacts to traffic, infrastructure, or public service impacts.
4. The proposed zone change is consistent with the project -specific Mitigated
Negative Declaration.
Conditional Use Permit (Master Plan of Development)
A Master Plan of Development is required for the Planned Development in the form of a
Conditional Use Permit. The proposed Master Plan of Development sets development
standards related to architectural design, site design, landscape, signage, and specific
development standards required by the zoning ordinance. The Planning Commission
recommends that the following five findings be made for approval of the proposed
Master Plan of Development:
1. The proposed project or use is consistent with the General Plan and the City's
Appearance Review Manual
57
•
•
•
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 02/14/06
Staff Comment: The use is consistent with the General Commercial designation of
the General Plan and General Plan Land Use Element Policy 1.1, 1.1.7, 2.1, 3.1,
and Housing Element Policy 1.1, 2.1, and 4.3.
2. The proposed project or use satisfies all applicable provisions of the Title (Zoning
Ordinance) including the Planned Development Ordinance.
Staff Comment: As conditioned, the project satisfies all Conditional Use Permit and
Planned Development zoning code provisions for a mixed-use development.
3. The establishment, and subsequent operation or conduct of the use will not,
because of the circumstances and conditions applied in the particular case, be
detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of the general public or persons residing
or working in the neighborhood of the use, or be detrimental or injurious to property
or improvements in the vicinity of the use.
Staff Comment: The proposed mixed-use development will not be detrimental to the
general public or working person's health, safety, or welfare.
4. That the proposed project or use will not be inconsistent with the character or the
immediate neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development.
Staff Comment: The project has been designed to develop underutilized property
and enhance the appearance along EI Camino Real with compatible architecture
and project landscaping.
The proposed development is consistent with the City's "Smart Growth Principles",
identified as orderly and efficient infill development concentrated along the EI
Camino Real corridor. The project site is within the City's General Commercial Land
Use designation, which allows horizontal mixed-use developments with the approval
of a Master Plan of Development and a Planned Development Overlay zone.
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 as conditioned and anticipated within the
General Plan and as proposed by the applicant.
6. The Master Plan of Development standards or processing requirements will enhance
the opportunity to best utilize special characteristics of an area and will have a
beneficial effect on the area.
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 02/14/06
Staff Comment: The project has been designed to provide a variety of housing
opportunities, focused on affordable housing along the EI Camino Real corridor and
within close proximity of downtown.
7. Benefits derived from the Master Plan of Development and PD -27 overlay zone
cannot be reasonably achieved through existing development standards or
processing requirements.
Staff Comment: The proposed project and use is generally consistent with the City
Council's policies for mixed-use projects in mid -block locations along the EI Camino
Real commercial corridor with existing infrastructure and transit routes available.
Planned Development flexibility allows the project to provide both 45 -year deed
restricted and market rate affordable housing units.
8. That the project does not include the standard Council -required landscape buffering
adjacent to single-family residential zoned properties which occurs on the north side
of the project site.
Staff Comment: Although the proposed project provides some landscape screening
and large planter areas, there are areas that do not contain additional landscape
setbacks. Staff notes that the change in grade between the project site and adjacent
single family properties aides in the separation and buffering of the proposed project.
9. Parking Standard Modification: The characteristics of a use or its immediate vicinity
do not -necessitate the number of parking spaces, type of design, or improvements
required by the parking code and that reduced parking will be adequate to
accommodate on the site all parking needs generated by the use.
Staff Comment: The proposed project and use is consistent with the anticipated
shared on-site parking requirements and designated on-site parking spaces, as
conditioned and anticipated within the General Plan and as proposed by the
applicant.
Tree Removals
1. The tree is obstructing proposed improvements that cannot be reasonably
designed to avoid the need for tree removal, as certified by a report from the Site
Planner and determined by the Community Development Department based on
the following factors:
• Early consultation with the City;
■ Consideration of practical design alternatives;
■ Provision of cost comparisons (from applicant) for practical design
alternatives;
■ If saving tree eliminates all reasonable uses of the property; or
59
ITEM NUMBER: B - 1
DATE: 02/14/06
■ If saving the tree requires the removal of more desirable trees.
Proposed Environmental Determination
A Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration was circulated to public agencies and interested
members of the public on December 8, 2005. The environmental analysis identified
concerns regarding potential impacts to aesthetics, land use and planning, noise,
biological resources, and traffic. Mitigation measures pertaining to these resources are
included. A finding is proposed that this project would not have a significant effect on
the environment based upon the implementation of the identified mitigation measures.
The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council certify Proposed Mitigated
Negative Declaration 2005-0063.
Conclusion
The Planning Commission recommends that developing the property with a horizontal
mixed-use scheme under a Planned Development Overlay Zone designation is
consistent with the General Plan and compatible with the surrounding land uses. The
project incorporates appearance review of architectural design, materials, street trees,
and landscaping, and incorporates architectural themes into the site and building
design, as conditioned. Native trees have been preserved where feasible and required
conditions and mitigation measures have been appropriately incorporated into the
project. As analyzed within the project Initial Study and Draft Mitigated Negative
Declaration, the proposed Master Plan of Development would have no significant
environmental impacts and will not be detrimental to the general public or working
person's health, safety, or welfare. Based on staff's analysis in the preceding sections,
it appears that all of the required findings for project approval can be made.
ALTERNATIVES
The Council may modify the project and/or conditions of approval for the project.
2. The Council 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 Council should clearly state the type of information
that is required and move to continue the item to a future date.
3. The Council may deny the project. The parcel would retain its designation of
Commercial Retail. The Council should specify the reasons for denial of the
project and make an associated finding with such action.

❑ Mandatory Findings of Significance
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
❑ 1 find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a
NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
® I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will
not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have
been added to the project. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
❑ I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
❑ I find that the proposed project MAY have a "potentially significant effect" or "potentially significant
unless mitigated" impact on the environment, but at least one effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an
earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures
based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed.
❑ I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there
WILL NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects (a) have been
analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards
and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION,
including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project.

. EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
1) A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by the
information sources a Lead Agency cites following each question. A "No Impact" answer is adequately
supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the
one involved (e.g. the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No Impact" answer should be explained
where it is based on project -specific factors as well as general standards (e.g. the project will not expose
sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project -specific screening analysis).
2) All answers must take account of the whole action involved, including off-site as well as on-site, cumulative as
well as project -level, indirect as well as direct, and construction as well as operational impacts.
3) "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significant. If
there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made, an EIR is
required.
4) "Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation measures
has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less than Significant Impact." The Lead
Agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than
significant level (mitigation measures from Section XVII, "Earlier Analyses," may be cross-referenced).
5) Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EM, or other CEQA process, an effect has
been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration. Section 15063(c) (3) (D). Earlier analyses
are discussed in Section XVII at the end of the checklist.
6) Lead Agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references information sources for potential
is impacts (e.g. general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a previously prepared or outside document
should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated. A
source list should be attached. Other sources used or individuals contacted should be cited in the discussion.

1.a,b,c,d) The project site is located along the EI Camino Real commercial corridor and is not located within a scenic
vista. Two mature oak trees will remain on the site and the El Camino Real street frontage will be landscaped with ,
street trees. The proposed buildings include the use of earth -tone colors and landscaping to reduce the potential for
reflected light and glare.
The following mitigation measures have been identified to assure that all potential impacts are mitigated to a level of
insignificance:
Mitigation Measure 1.c.1: The following landscape mitigations shall apply:
• Fencing shall be complimentary in color and material to the proposed architectural theme.
• The project landscaping shall include street trees along EI Camino Real street frontage.
■ All proposed trees shall be shade trees of 15 -gallon minimum .size and shall be double staked.
Mitioation Measure 1.c.2: The proposed buildings shall include the use of earth tone paint and roof colors.
Mitigation Measure 1.d.1: If exterior parking lot lighting is proposed, it shall be designed to eliminate any off site
glare. All exterior site lights shall utilize full cut-off, "hooded" lighting fixtures to prevent offsite light spillage and glare,

DISCUSSION
7a.b.c.) The project is not anticipated to generate or involve use of significant amounts of hazardous materials.
According to the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment prepared for the project site, no evidence of existing or
former underground fuel storage tanks (UST's) or aboveground fuel storage tanks (AST's) were observed. In 2005,
two 500 -gallon USTs were discovered beneath the former garage/market building. The USTs and associated piping
were removed form the site and soil samples were collected for laboratory analysis. According to EHS records, soil
collected beneath the USTs did not pose a significant risk and no further action was required. The USTs and product
lines do not appeal to have adversely impacted the site. The previously demolished commercial building site was
tested to 30 feet below grade and did not reveal evidence of hazardous material leaks, spills or disposal in these
areas. The site is not listed as a contaminated or potentially contaminated site on any local, state or federal
databases. And there are no known hazardous materials nearby.
7.d.) The property is not a listed hazardous material site.
7e.f.) The property is not near an airport.
7g.h.) The site is within the Fire Department's five-minute or less response area. The Fire Marshall will determine if
the residences will have fire sprinklers during review of the building permit.
Mitigation Measure 7.b.1: Per the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, further investigation of the former
commercial building area is necessary to better determine if the site had been adversely impacted by previous auto
garage or painting use.
8. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY -- Would the
project: 17
a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge
requirements?
b) Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere
substantially with groundwater recharge such that there
would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the
local groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate of
previously -existing nearby wells would drop to a level that
would not support existing land uses or planned uses for
which permits have been granted)?
c) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site
or area, including through the alteration of the course of a
stream or river, in a manner which would result in
substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site?
d) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site
or area, including through the alteration of the course of a
stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount
of surface runoff in a manner that would result in flooding
on- or off-site?
e) Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the
capacity of existing or planned stormwater drainage systems
or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff?

DISCUSSION:
Development Impact Fees: Development Impact Fees will be required of any new project for which a building permit
is issued. The concept of the impact fee program is to fund and sustain improvements which are needed as a result
of new development as stated in the General Plan and other policy documents within the fee program. Development
Impact Fees fall into the following categories: Drainage Fees (including the Amapoa Tecorida Drainage Area Fee);
Streets, Road, Bridge Fees; Sewer Fees; Public Safety Fees; and Park Fees, Miscellaneous Fees. In addition,
school fees are collected by the Atascadero Unified School District. The amount of impact fees to be paid will be
determined at the time of issuance of building permit.
Fire and Police: Impact fees are charged for new development, to help pay the cost of providing new facilities to
serve the expanding city. The Fire Department of the City of Atascadero has indicated that it will be able to
adequately service the proposed project. The applicant shall comply with all requirements of the Fire Department.
The City of Atascadero Police Department has also indicated that the proposed project poses no problems to the
police to adequately service it.
Schools: At buildout, the city's population will overburden the existing school system unless additional classroom
space is added. The Atascadero Unified School District charges impact fees to fund additional schools as needed.
State law restricts mitigation of school impacts to the levying of these fees and other measures adopted by the
school district. Provision of adequate facilities for the population is the responsibility of the school district. Fees will
be required through construction permits for the residence.
Parks: New residences will increase demand on parks and recreation facilities. The City's Parks & Recreation
Commission is committed to finding ways to continue to provide parks and other recreational opportunities to city
residents as the city expands, thereby addressing cumulative impacts.
Other public facilities: The construction of the project is not expected to have significant impacts on any other public
facilities.
Mitigation Measure 13.1: Project Road and Landscape Maintenance and Emergency Services Funding:
The emergency services and road maintenance costs of the project shall be 100% funded by the project in
perpetuity. The service and maintenance cost may be funded through a benefit assessment district or other
mechanism established by the developer subject to City approval. The funding mechanism must be in place prior to
or concurrently with acceptance of the any final maps. The funding mechanism shall be approved by the City
Attomey, City Engineer and Administrative Services Director prior to acceptance of any final map. The administration
of the above mentioned funds and the coordination and performance of maintenance activities shall be by the City

SOURCES: Land Use Element, Circulation Element; Traffic Impact Report, Pinnacle Traffic Engineering.
DISCUSSION:
15a.b.) The Circulation Element (CE) anticipates an increase in new development in this area. The CE incorporates
mitigation for effects from increased traffic. A project -specific traffic analysis has been prepared by Pinnacle Traffic
Engineering. The report summarizes the project as a mixed-use project with 41 residential units and 6,000 square
feet of commercial use, could generate up to 276 average residential daily trips and 266 specialty commercial retail
daily trips on the city's road system. During the AM and PM peak hours, the project could add up to 16 trips and 7
trips, respectively. The net impact of the project on existing conditions is not anticipated to significantly impact traffic
operations. However, the appropriate City traffic impact fees will be paid to help pay for any future improvements
needed to provide acceptable levels of service on the local street system. In addition, a mitigation measure has been
added requiring the applicant to participate in additional street widening along San Anselmo between U.S. Highway
101 and EI Camino Real
15.c.) No changes will occur to the air traffic patterns.
15.d.) The project's access has adequate site distance onto EI Camino Real
15.e.) The project will have adequate emergency access from EI Camino Real
15.f.) The proposed site plan identifies 76 on-site parking spaces for the mixed use project. Both the parking code
and the State Density bonus criteria allow a proposed reduction of overall parking spaces through a shared
parking program and residential affordability consideration. The proposed project will provide adequate
parking through implementation of an on-site shared parking program.
15.g.) The project does not conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation.
Mitiqation Measure 15.a: The project shall widen west bound San Anselmo, between the US 101 north bound on
ramp and the K -mart driveway, to provide a landscaped median, two west bound lanes and a bike lane. This work will
require approval by Caltrans. This improvement will provide a dedicated lane for traffic entering the US 101 north
bound on ramp, which will improve the operation of the US 101 north bound off ramp and east and west bound San
Anselmo.

DISCUSSION:
Water.' The Atascadero Mutual Water Company (AMWC) will provide water. All property within the city limits is
entitled to water from the AMWC. The project is not expected to require significant quantities of water for the
proposed uses.
Water is pumped from two portions of the largest underground basin in the county, the Paso Robles Formation, using
a series of shallow and deep wells. The water company anticipates that it will be able to meet the city's needs through
buildout and beyond:
Water demand at buildout under the LUE is estimated at about 8,500 acre-feet per year (AFY). The total available
groundwater supply greatly exceeds demand, according to the findings of the Long -Term Viability of Water study.
However, the water company does not currently have the deep wells needed to tap into the total amount needed at
buildout. The water company is currently developing plans for installing wells where they will be most effective and
will not conflict with water rights of others. According to the Water Company, development of additional wells is
expected to keep pace with construction in the city, so that water supply will not be interrupted.
Sewer. Sewer discharge will be handled by an on City sewer connection.
Storm Water. On-site storm water drainage has been designed to flow into the existing Morro Road drainage
facilities. The existing facilities have been designed to handle run-off from this site at build out.
17. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE --
a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality
of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish
or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop
below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or
animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range

DISCUSSION: The proposed project consists of an application for a General Plan Amendment, Zone Change,
and Conditional Use Permit for a commercial/residential mixed-use development located on a 1.71 -acre parcel
within the Commercial Retail (CR) zoning district. A 0.62 -acre portion of the site along El Camino Real will retain
the CR zoning. The remaining 1.08 acres will require a General Plan Amendment to High Density Residential
(HDR), a zone change to Residential Multi -Family (16 units/acre) (RMF -16) with a Planned Development Overlay
Zone, and a vesting tentative condominium subdivision map. The site is accessed along EI Camino Real.
Proposed buildings consist of two multi -family residential buildings and two mixed-use buildings designed for
commercial use on the lower floor and residential use on the upper floor. A maximum of 40 dwelling units and
8,000 square feet of commercial space are proposed.

Atascadero, California
Assessor's Parcel 029-271-001
INTRODUCTION
Barbella's Tree Service conducted a tree assessment for the 1.71 acre El Camino Real project site,
located in the city of Atascadero, California. The site is located in San Luis Obispo County,
south of Valdez Avenue on El Camino Real, in the Coastal Range at an elevation between 922
and 955 feet based upon the basis of elevation benchmark found at the northeast corner of El
Camino Real and East Niall, having and elevation of 100.00 NAVD88.
Five existing structures were found on the property (refer to the enclosed Topographic Survey,
Figure 2). According to the developer, these existing structures are scheduled for demolition
within the next few weeks. The majority of the project site is currently an undeveloped property
surrounded by residences on two sides (northwest and northeast) and a commercial shopping
center along its southeast border. The southwestern property boundary parallels El Camino Real,
and U.S. highway 101 (refer to the location map, Figure 1). The site slopes gently from rear to
front at 5 to 10% gradients.
103
REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
The City of Atascadero's Native Tree Regulations (Title 9, Chapter 11 of the Atascadero
Municipal Code) includes native the protection of trees with a diameter at breast height (dbh) of
at least two (2) inches for deciduous native oaks, California Sycamore (Plantus Racemosa Nutt)
and madrones (Arbutus Menziesii), or four (4) inches dbh or greater for all other protected native
trees. The Ordinance is in effect to promote the preservation, maintenance and regeneration of
natural flora and fauna which enhance the. community of Atascadero. Removal of trees meeting
the above criteria are regulated by this ordinance, and require the development of a tree
protection plan for new development which may impact native trees.
METHODOLOGY
Field Assessment
•
A field survey of the site was conducted during a site visit by Barbella's Tree Service arborist
during June, 2005. Tree location survey data was provided by Wilson Land Surveys (refer to Is
EI Camino Court Mixed Use Development Nage 1
Figure 2), and confirmed while on-site by john Barbella. The trees were located, measured and
evaluated.
We confirmed data for each regulated tree indicated on the survey, noting the following
information:
g species
4 diameter(s) at breast height (4,5 feet above root crown)
E dripline radius (feet)
♦ health and vigor (poor, fair or good)
+ structure (poor, fair or good)
In addition, notes regarding location and general observations were also recorded. Tris data was
summarized into a spreadsheet and are presented as Appendix A.
Data
The Vincent Company, Architects provided to Larbella's Tree Service a property survey, Which
included the existing structure and tree locations (Figure 2). Additionally, a conceptual site
design was provided, which included the locations of existing trees to be preserved, and identified
proposed impositions on the drip lines of the trees to remain. Tree assessment information from
our field assessment was entered into a spreadsheet for summery and statistical purposes.
RESULTS
Vegetation
Two habitat types occur on the property: Oak woodland and annual grassland.
Annual grassland: The majority of the project site contains annual grassland habitat. Most of this
habitat consists of ruderal species common on disturbed sites. Dominant species include native
grasses, soft chess, vetch, rose clover, yellow star thistle, and wild oat. bion -native plantings,
including corn, were present in the northeast corner of the site.
Oak woodland: Tlie project site contains several large exarnples of native Coastal, Live Oaks
(Quercus AgriZoiia), with drip lines exceeding 70 feet in diameter. ine major trees are located it
the center front half of the site, and are identified as trees A. B, C. D and Fon the Topographic
Survey (Figure 2). Additionally, a Chinese F it n (MMus ParviJoiia) and several non-native trees
were found on-site. The oak woodland u nderstory consists of a variety of the sane grasses and
forbs found within the annual grassland areas.
Tree Data
The site as evaluated included thirteen trees, of which five were considered to be native (quercus
Agrizoli a, Coastal 'Live Oaks). The evaluation was limited to the native trees, with the addition of
EI C;amtno Court rvuxea use uevewplu o' . _g'
104
one considered non-native (Mmus Parvifolia, Chinese Elm) as it is of size and quality that it may
be considered for preservation. The remaining seven trees found on-site include non-native trees
such as pines, and are considered outside of the City of Atascadero Native Tree Ordinance. As
such, these trees are considered removable without mitigation, however, the developer may want
to consider preservation of the trees not in the area of development as they exhibit reasonable
health and structure and would be an asset for the proposed development.
The five native trees were located, measured and evaluated. Four of the oaks ( trees A, B, C and
E ) are single trunk trees, with only one tree ( tree D) considered a multi -trunk tree ( refer to
Figure 2 for locations). Single trunk diameters range from 27 to 34 inches, with drip lines ranging
from 48 to 85 feet in diameter. Multi -trunked tree diameters range from 18 to 28 inches, with a
drip line of 58 feet in diameter. The Chinese Elm (tree F) is a single trunk tree, 16 inches in
diameter, with a 24 foot drip line diameter.
Health, Vigor, Structure
All five of the native trees (100%) were assessed to be in good health and have good structure. In
regards to the health and vigor, only tree F was rated as fair, with all remaining trees rated as
good. The majority of the problems with individual trees include crowned and suppressed growth
form, poor branching structure, and issues relating to proximity to buildings proposed for
demolition and associated work.
CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATIONS
In evaluating the trees and reviewing the proposed development, it appears that the most
significant examples of the Coastal Live Oak ( trees A, B and C) are excellent candidates for
preservation. Due to their location adjacent to buildings to be demolished, it appears that trees D
and E will likely sustain damage to their root systems due to heavy equipment and excavations
which makes them less likely to survive the development. On this basis, these trees may require
removal and mitigation measures as noted in the City of Atascadero Native Tree Ordinance.
Other non-native trees (especially in the northeast corner of the site) fall into areas of the
development where they may be retained, however, this will depend largely on grading
operations required for the development.
In regards to specific recommendations for this development, they areas follows:
At trees A and B, grading will not be permitted within a 20'-0 radius of the base of each
tree. Cuts required adjacent to these zones shall be reviewed by the arborist prior to
commencing the work. The addition of any fill to raise grades within this zone is
prohibited.
♦ At tree C, the existing adjacent grade shall be maintained for a distance of at least 12 feet
from the property line. Retaining walls shall be installed where cuts are required outside
of the 12 foot limit, with french drains installed at the base to prevent the accumulation of
EI Camino Court Mixed Use Development Page 3
105
17J
moisture in the root zone. At the cut for the retaining wall, proper root pruning by an
arborist is required for all roots one inch diameter and larger.
♦ Adequate barriers / protection shall be provided at trees to be preserved to keep heavy
equipment from driving over the roots within the drip line of each tree. The arborist shall
be consulted in establishing the limits of these protection measures.
Tree pruning for trees A, B and C shall remove dead wood only. The canopy shall not be
thinned, however, lower branches may be trimmed up to allow for vehicular and
pedestrian traffic.
♦ Landscaping under the canopy of trees to be preserved shall utilize native plants where
possible, and shall incorporate non -watering landscape techniques. Large, 6 inch diameter
river rock may be used at the base of the trees to protect trunks. Areas under the canopy
may be provided with either crushed walk (DG) or wood chip mulch to provide weed
control and water retention.
Walkways and seating areas under the canopy may be provided. Interlocking pavers with
sand filled joints (to allow natural drainage) shall be provided for these uses. Cast -in-place
concrete is not acceptable.

Attachment 4: Applicant's Shared Parking Statement
Basis of Design
Parking Requirements For:
EL CAMINO COURT
4705 El Camino Real, Atascadero, California
L Introduction:
EI Camino Court is a proposed mixed use development integrating commercial uses with multiple -
family residences on a 1.71 acre site fronting EI Camino Real in the City of Atascadero, California.
The design features four buildings, each three stories in height. The two buildings in close proximity to
EI Camino Real are provided with commercial space on the ground floor of each building, along with
eight residences located in the two upper stories of each building. These buildings provide a sound
buffer to the remaining two buildings located at the rear of the site, each with twelve residences.
Commercial space, which includes the management office and recreation spaces for the residences,
totals 8,664 square feet of the 57,444 square feet of building proposed on the site. Uses expected to
fill this space would include additional general office space, general (medium intensity) retail uses, and
service industry uses. Specifically excluded would be sit down food establishments as the impact
upon parking would be detrimental to the ability to provide adequate parking for the project.
Forty residences of one-, two- and three-bedroom designs are proposed for the remainder of the
project. Of these units, twenty percent are scheduled for restricted workforce housing with an
affordability restriction to be attached to the deed for the next thirty years. In general, residents are
expected to be young professional and workforce singles and families. Two and three bedroom units
have been specifically designed to allow second bedrooms to be adapted to an office, workout space,
or den at the request of the resident.
Parking is provided on the site with the majority of open / guest parking spaces being located to the
front half of the site. This has been intentionally provided as the design proposes to use "shared"
parking between the commercial and residential uses as is customary in mixed use developments of
this type. The goal is to minimize the amount of paving/ parking needed to provide adequate parking
to uses which do not typically share peak hours of use. In this instance, the residential uses will have
their lowest demand during the customary daytime hours -of --operation (8:00 am to 5:00 pm) of the
commercial uses.
II. Regulatory Issues
In reviewing the Municipal Code for the City of Atascadero, it is noted that one and one-half parking
stalls must be provided for each one -bedroom unit; two stalls for each two-bedroom unit; and two and
one-half stalls for each three-bedroom unit. Of these initial stalls, one stall must be covered (either
carport or. garage) for each unit. Additionally, one "guest stall' must also be provided on the basis of
one stall for every five units. On this basis, 40 covered and 54 open stalls would need to be provided
for a total of 94 parking stalls for residential uses only. This provides a parking ratio of 2.35 stalls per
unit for this project. 0
111
ITEM NUMBER: 4
DATE: 1-17-06
49 In regards to commercial uses, the City of Atascadero Municipal Code provides for varying ratios from
one stall per three hundred square feet to one per five hundred square feet, depending upon use and
the intensity of parking required for the use. As previously stated, 2,166 square feet of the proposed
commercial space will be used for management offices and recreational space for the residents. In
compliance with state law, an on-site manager is required fora project of this size, thus, the parking
needed has already been accounted for in the residential stalls. Likewise, the users of this space will
be the residents themselves, who are already on-site. As such, we have excluded this footage from
our calculations.
In reviewing the remaining 6,498 square feet of commercial space, 21 parking stalls would be required
for higher intensity commercial uses fitting the 1/300 square foot categories, while only 13 stalls would
be required for the less intensive office / service uses. Depending upon the eventual tenants, this
would bring the total number of stalls required for the development to between 107 and 115 stalls if
shared parking is not allowed.
As this project has proposed to restrict twenty percent of the residential units to affordable levels, the
State allows under its density bonus program for local municipal codes relating to parking to be
superseded by State standards. These standards are based upon specific studies of similar projects
in which it is demonstrated that reduced parking levels are appropriate for housing provided to
residents of lower incomes. In the case of this project, the requirement for the residential uses would
reduce from 94 spaces to only 72. Inasmuch as the project proposes only 68 stalls, and additional 5%
minor deviation would be required for the approval of this project.
III. Basis for Design
Over the recent past, The Vincent Company, Architects has designed numerous multi -family
residential projects throughout the state, with varying requirements for parking. In Fresno, a project of
this nature would be required to provide only 1.5 stalls per unit, while in Redding, the number would be
2.15 stalls per unit. Inasmuch as it is our goal not to design projects for our clients which have
inherent parking problems, we have followed up on several recently completed and occupied projects,
both workforce and market rate, to determine practical levels of parking for our projects. Property
managers were asked to survey the cars found on-site at varying times of the day. The surveys were
conducted over a two week period, with the amount reported for each time frame being the maximum
found during the survey period. Attached please find a recap of our findings.
In reviewing the findings, you will note that many of the projects include not only three-, but also four-
bedroom units. We also attempted to vary the economic make-up (from 100% workforce to 100%
market rate), as well as geographic locations. The results show the projects tend to be "empty" during
mid-day hours, with peaks being in late evening and early morning hours. In all cases, the actual
numbers of cars never approached the 2 cars per unit level. This may be attributed to factors such as
varying work shifts (with some residents working night shifts rather than days), varying family sizes
(units may be occupied by a single parent with children, or a single desiring an office or spare room),
or the simple economics of not being able to afford a vehicle. In any case, these results seem to
match those of the state, and provide a basis for the reduced parking levels proposed for this site.
Finally, the design as proposed addresses the issues of shared parking. Twenty-one open stalls are
found directly behind Buildings A and B, providing adequate parking for even the more restrictive
commercial uses found under the 1/300 category. Covered parking, meeting the City of Atascadero
Municipal Code is provided for each unit, with additional open stalls allowed for daytime guests of the
residences, as well as additional night time parking for our residents. On this basis, we fell that this
design will provide adequate and convenient parking for the users of this project.

EL CAMINO COURT
4705 El Camino Real, Atascadero, California
L Introduction:
EI Camino Court is a proposed mixed use development integrating commercial uses with multiple -
family residences on a 1.71 acre site fronting EI Camino Real in the City of Atascadero, California.
The design features four buildings, each three stories in height. The two buildings in close proximity to
EI Camino Real are provided with commercial space on the ground floor of each building, along with
eight residences located in the two upper stories of each building. These buildings provide a sound
buffer to the remaining two buildings located at the rear of the site, each with twelve residences.
Commercial space, which includes the management office and recreation spaces for the residences,
totals 8,664 square feet of the 57,444 square feet of building proposed on the site. Uses expected to
fill this space would include additional general office space, general (medium intensity) retail uses, and
service industry uses. Specifically excluded would be sit down food establishments as the impact
is upon parking would be detrimental to the ability to provide adequate parking for the project.
Forty residences of one-, two- and three-bedroom designs are proposed for the remainder of the
project. Of these units, twenty percent are scheduled for restricted workforce housing with an
affordability restriction to be attached to the deed for the next thirty years. In general, residents are
expected to be young professional and workforce singles and families. Two and three bedroom units
have been specifically designed to allow second bedrooms to be adapted to an office, workout space,
or den at the request of the resident.
Parking is provided on the site with the majority of open / guest parking spaces being located to the
front half of the site. This has been intentionally provided as the design proposes to use "shared"
parking between the commercial and residential uses as is customary in mixed use developments of
this type. The goal is to minimize the amount of paving/ parking needed to provide adequate parking
to uses which do not typically share peak hours of use. In this instance, the residential uses will have
their lowest demand during the customary daytime hours -of --operation (8:00 am to 5:00 pm) of the
commercial uses.
77. Regulatory Issues
In reviewing the Municipal Code for the City of Atascadero, it is noted that one and one-half parking
stalls must be provided for each one -bedroom unit; two stalls for each two-bedroom unit; and two and
one-half stalls for each three-bedroom unit. Of these initial stalls, one stall must be covered (either
carport or garage) for each unit. Additionally, one "guest stall" must also be provided on the basis of
one stall for every five units. On this basis, 40 covered and 54 open stalls would need to be provided
for a total of 94 parking stalls for residential uses only. This provides a parking ratio of 2.35 stalls per
unit for this project.
In regards to commercial uses, the City of Atascadero Municipal Code provides for varying ratios from
one stall per three hundred square feet to one per five hundred square feet, depending upon use and
114
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 02/14/06
the intensity of parking required for the use. As previously stated, 2,166 square feet of the proposed
commercial space will be used for management offices and recreational space for the residents. in
compliance with state law, an on-site manager is required for a project of this size, thus, the parking
needed has already been accounted for in the residential stalls. Likewise, the users of this space will
be the residents themselves, who are already on-site. As such, we have excluded this footage from
our calculations.
In reviewing the remaining 6,498 square feet of commercial space, 21 parking stalls would be required
for higher intensity commercial uses fitting the 1/300 square foot categories, while only 13 stalls would
be required for the less intensive office / service uses. Depending upon the eventual tenants, this
would bring the total number of stalls required for the development to between 107 and 115 stalls if
shared parking is not allowed.
As this project has proposed to restrict twenty percent of the residential units to affordable levels, the
State allows under its density bonus program for local municipal codes relating to parking to be
superseded by State standards. These standards are based upon specific studies of similar projects
in which it is demonstrated that reduced parking levels are appropriate for housing provided to
residents of lower incomes. In the case of this project, the requirement for the residential uses would
reduce from 94 spaces to only 72. Inasmuch as the project proposes only 68 stalls, and additional 5%
minor deviation would be required for the approval of this project.
III. Basis for Design
Over the recent past, The Vincent Company, Architects has designed numerous multi -family
residential projects throughout the state, with varying requirements for parking. In Fresno, a project of
this nature would be required to provide only 1.5 stalls per unit, while in Redding, the number would be
2.15 stalls per unit. Inasmuch as it is our goal not to design projects for our clients which have
inherent parking problems, we have followed up on several recently. completed and occupied projects,
both workforce and market rate, to determine practical levels of parking for our projects. Property
managers were asked to survey the cars found on-site at varying times of the day. The surveys were
conducted over a two week period, with the amount reported for each time frame being the maximum
found during the survey period. Attached please find a recap of our findings.
In reviewing the findings, you will note that many of the projects include not only three-, but also four-
bedroom units. We also attempted to vary the economic make-up (from 100% workforce to 100%
market rate), as well as geographic locations. The results show the projects tend to be "empty" during
mid-day hours, with peaks being in late evening and early morning hours. In all cases, the actual
numbers of cars never approached the 2 cars per unit level. This may be attributed to factors such as
varying work shifts (with some residents working night shifts rather than days), varying family sizes
(units may be occupied by a single parent with children, or a single desiring an office or spare room),
or the simple economics of not being able to afford a vehicle. In any case, these results seem to
match those of the state, and provide a basis for the reduced parking levels proposed for this site.
Finally, the design as proposed addresses the issues of shared parking. Twenty-one open stalls are
found directly behind Buildings A and B, providing adequate parking for even the more restrictive
commercial uses found under the 1/300 category. Covered parking, meeting the City of Atascadero
Municipal Code is provided for each unit, with additional open stalls allowed for daytime guests of the
residences, as well as additional night time parking for our residents. On this basis, we fell that this
design will provide adequate and convenient parking for the users of this project.

Atascaderu, California
Assessor's Parcel 029-271-001
BarbdWs Tree Service conducted a tree assessment for the 1.71 acre El Camino Real project site,
located in. the city of Atascadero, California. The site is located in. San Luis Obis�p County,
south of Valde7 Avenue on El Camino Real, in the -Coastal Range at an elevation between.922
and, 955 Tea based upon the basis of elevation benchmark found at thenortheast corner of El
Camino Real and East Mall, having and elevation of 100.00 NAND88.
Five existing structures were found onthe property (refer to the enclosed Topographic Survey,
Figure 2). According to the: developer, these existing structures are scheduled for denidlition
within the next few weeks. 'rhe majority of the project site is currently an undeveloped property
surrounded byresidences on two sides.(northwestland northeast) and a,commercial shopping
center along its southeast border. The southwestern- property boundaryVarallels El Camino Real,
and U.S. Highway 101 (refer to the location map, Figure 1.). The site slopes gently from rear to
front at 5 to 10% gradients.
REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
The City of Ataseaderds Native Tree Regulations (Title 9. Chapter I I of the Auscadem
Municipal Code),includes native the protection of trees with a diameter at breast height (dbh) of
at least two (2) inches for deciduous native oaks, California Sycamore. (Pianim Racernosa Nutt)
and madrones (Arbutus.Adenzie-vil), or four (4) inches dbh or greater for all other protected native
trees. The Ordinance is in effect to promote the preservation, maintenance and regeneration of
natural flora and: Inuna which enhance the cGrnmunity of Atascadem. Removal of trees meeting
the above criteria are regulatedby,flus -ordinance, and require the development of a tree
protection plan for new development which may impact native trees.
Mk-MODOLOGY
Field, Assmment
A field survey of the site was conducted during a site visit by Barbella's Tree Service arborist
during June, 2005. Tree location survey data was provided by Wilson Land. Surveys (refer to

evaluated.
We confirmed data for each regulated tree; indicated on the survey, noting the follovving
information:

4 dripline radius ('feet)
4 health and vigor (poor, fair or good)

in addition, notes regarding location and general observations were also recorded. This data was
summarized into a spreadsheet and are presented as Appendix A.
Data
The Vincent Company, Architects provided to BarbelWs Tree Service a piVperty saw'vey, -%k icl
included the existing, structure and tree locations (Figure 2). Additionally. a conceptual site
design was provided; which included the locations of existing; trees to be preserved, and identified
proposed impositions on the drip lines of the trees to re -,Haag. `free assessment information from
our field assessment was entered into a spreadsheet for summery and statistical purposes.
RESULTS
i
vegetation
Two habitat types occur on the property: Oak woodland and annual grassland.
Annual grassland: The majority of -Hie project site contains annual; grassland habitat Most of this
habitat.consists of ruderal species common on disturbed sites. Do niinant spccies:iuclu rtttlive
grasses, soft chess, vetch, rose clover, yellow star thistle, and wild oat. ori native plantings,
including corn, were present in the northeast corner of die site.
Oak woodland-- The project site contains several large examples (Yf native Coastal dive Oaks
(Quercus jtgrifoliu), with drip lines. exceeding 70 feet in diameter. The muior treessrc iocaltcd in
the center front half of the site; and are. identified as trees A, B. C D and E on the Topographic
Survey. (Figure Z). Additionally, a Chinese Elm (Uimus Parvi folia) and several non-native trees
were found on-site. The oak woodland understory consists of a variety of the same grasses and
forbs found within the annual; grassland. areas..
Tree Data
The site as evaluated included thirteen trees, of which :f ivc were'c aisidered to be:nativc (C uercaas
Agp-• folia, Coastal Live Oaks). The evaluation was limited to the native trees, with rite addition of

one considered non-native (Ulmus Farvf folia, Chinese Elfin) as it is of size and quality that it may
be considered for preservation. The remaining seven trees found on-site include non-native trees
such as pines, and are considered outside ofthe City of Atascadero l+lative Tree Ordinance. As
such, these trees are considered removable without mitigation, however, the developer may want
to consider preservation. of the trees not in the area of development as they exhibit reasonable
health and structure and would be an asset for the proposed development.
The five native trees were located, measured and evaluated. .Four of the oaks ( trees A, B. C and
E ) are single trunk trees, withonly one tree ( tree D) considered a multi -trunk tree ( refer to
Figure 2 for locations). Single trunk diameters range from 27 to 34 inches, with imp lines ranging
from 48 to 85feet in diameter. Multi -trunked tree diameters range from 18 to 28 inches, with a
drip line of 58 feet in diameter. The Chinese Elm (tree F) is a single trunk tree, 16 inches in
diameter, with a 24 foot drip line diameter.
Health, Vigor, Structure
All five of the native trees (100%) were assessed to be ingoodhealth and have good structure. In
regards to the health and vigor, only tree F was rated as fair, with all remaining trees rated as
good. The majority of the problems with individual trees include crowned and suppressed growth
form, poor branching structure, and issues relating to proximity to buildings proposed for
demolition and associated work,
CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATIONS
In : evaluating the trees and reviewing the proposed development, it appears that the most
significant examples of the Coastal Live Oak ( u,=s.A, B and C) are excellent candidates for
preservation, Due to their location adjacent to:buildings to be demolished, it appears that trees D'
and E will likely sustain damage to -their root systems due to heavy equipment and excavations
which makes, them less likely to survive the development. On this basis, these trees may require
removal and mitigation measures as noted in the City ofAtaseadero Native Tree Ordinance.
Other non-native trees (especially in the northeast comer of the site) fall into areas of the
development where they may be retained, however, this will depend largely on grading
operations required for the development,
In regards to specific recommendations for this development, they are as follows:
At trees A and B,,grading will not be permitted within a X-0" radius of the base of each.
tree. Cuts required adjacent to these zones shall be reviewed by the arborist prior to
commencing the work. The addition of any fill to raise grades within this zone is

Staff Report - City Manager's Office
Legislative Priorities 2006
RECOMMENDATION:
Council adopt a Draft Resolution A establishing the City's legislative priorities for 2006.
DISCUSSION:
The City is continually impacted with legislation at the state and federal levels. New
. legislation often translates into new costs, service requirements, mandates or a loss of
local control. However, new legislation may also benefit Atascadero programs. The
City Council, through its strategic planning program, has agreed to establish a list of
legislative priorities. This list represents the typical or most often faced issues from
federal, state and county government. It illustrates the City's position and empowers
Council Members, staff and other officials to take an active role in shaping legislation
helpful to Atascadero and opposing legislation that would be harmful.
The legislative priorities were last adopted by the City Council in 2003. Since that time,
cities have scored some major legislative victories including the successful passage of
Proposition 1A. Since 2003, the issues facing cities and the challenges being
discussed at the state level have also changed. Because of these changes, the. City
Council is being asked to update the City's legislative priorities to insure the latest
issues are considered. Issues do arise during the year that require special Council
consideration or action. These items may be brought up individually on the Council
agenda for discussion and action.
The attached Draft Resolution provides a list of recommended_ legislative priorities.
FISCAL IMPACT: None
ALTERNATIVES: Modify legislative positions included in the Resolution.
