HomeMy WebLinkAboutPublic Notice (75) What to do:
Zero based budgeting; start from scratch and have
department heads justify the items in their budget
to the Finance Committee
Discuss savings options with the bargaining units
No layoffs
For the moment leave vacant positions unfilled
(except Finance Director; we need good numbers!)
Cross training/team building instead of divide and
conquer
Raise developer fees. These are the only fees not
raised in 1992.
Stop subsidizing developers
Raise the fees on city facilities
Rewrite the funding formula for the COPs so that
the General Fund is not held responsible.

Subject: Conversion of 8.99 acres to Residential Multi-Family
When we,the owners of Rio Rita, bought our homes, certain zoning
restrictions were in place which we relied on to maintain the rural
atmosphere in this area. Now, the zoning is being changed to accomodate
these developers. I feel that this project will devalue our properties (along
Rio Rita) by creating an urban setting with the stores, traffic, lights, people,
and homes,and the elimination of the view we now have. the daytime noise
and evening lights have already increased dramatically since the
construction of the Outlet phase 1, and it will surely get worse. Here are
some of my reasons;
The plans limit the lightpoles to 30 feet in height this puts them at
eye level on Rio Rita.
My wife suffers from asthma and the dust created during
constrtuction will wreak havoc on her. l do not believe that an occasional
sprinkling of water(as mentioned in the E.I.R.)will take care of this
problem.
Rio Rita is private property and we, the property owners, are
responsible for what happens on it We haveaiready had to deal with
construction companies using it to access adjoining parcels to build
homes. l believe this project presents us with a serious liability concern,
both during construction, as well as afterwards when families (with
children)occupy these homes.
I ask you to reduce the impact this project will have on us by
requiring the developers to build a block wall (as found along the housing
project in Templeton on hwy.101)to seperate this project from the
adjoining properties. I ask that it be a block wall because it won't require
any maintenance, since no one will be required to maintain a fence,and
only a solid wall will block the lights,noise and dust I ask that this wall be
built prior to the start of construction of the outlet phase 2 to help mitigate
the noise and dust problems during construction.
The planning commission was concerned that a block wall was not in
keeping with the rural atmosphere of Atascadero. I dont understand how
someone can discuss a project like this, and say that the BLOCK WALL
would destroy the rural setting.
Others might discuss the pros and cons of this request, but it is MY
property being directly affected by this project
Please, grant us this request

At his request , the Atascadero Iiomeowners Association Board of
Directors met with T,'r. Charles Ekberg and his assistants to dis-
cuss the proposed Factor-, Outlet commercial expansion and the
proposed single family development adjacent to it .
The Atascadero homeowners Association is concerned .that the resi-
dential -ortion will be built while the commercial part may not
materialize . Therefore , concerns about timing of the commercial
part and about the residential proposal are contained in the fol-
lowing recommendations which were approved by the Board 9/9/96:
The Atascadero homeowners Association supports the Factory Outlet
commercial expansion if Phase I is completed before the construc-
tion of homes is begun, or if the developernegotiatesa comple-
tion bond for the coW" rcial part .
The Atascadero yomeowners Association has great concerns regarding
the residential part of the project , such as:
1 . Since the project proposes to build single family homes, it
should request single family zoning, not multifamily.
2 . A .'A is concerned about traffic impacts and pedestrian safety
on Del Rio Road.
3. Finally, AriA is deeply concerned about sewer expansion for
residential development when our sewer is already over-
committed.
The Atascadero -omeowners Association Board recommends that the
residential portion of the project not be approved -Until these
impacts are addressed and mitigated.
Sincerely,
