Signature: J, Dater J'0O1 Board, Committee & Commission Application Page 2 )O S CITY OF ATASCADERO SUPPLEMENTAL QUESTIONAIRE • PLANNING COMMISSION 1. Please explain why you would like to serve on the Planning Commission. I'm interested in having meaningful input into how my community develops over the next several years. The Planning Commission, in my opinion, is one of the best ways to have this input. Being new to the area(August, 1999) I do not have any axes to grind so I would bring an unbiased and objective view to the Planning Commission. Where necessary I could function in the role of an mediator. I've always wanted to serve on a Planning Commission but never had the time or stayed in one place long enough to do so. 2. Have you ever attended a meeting of the Planning Commission? _Yes X No 3. What is it about the Planning Commission that interests you? What qualities, experience and expertise would you bring to the Planning Commission? The Planning Commission reports directly to the City Council so the Planning Commission has direct input into how the City of Atascadero will eventually look. I would bring integrity, leadership, energy, drive and a dedication to making Atascadero one of the best places to live in the North County. . I'm an organized individual that has been a Fire Commissioner and President of a homeowners association in the Bay Area where our association had to maintain two parks and all the common landscaping for the separate community of 250 homeowners. My experience as a Fire Commissioner was very rewarding and culminated with a commendation from our State Representative, Dan Boatright for our courage and unselfishness in working with the neighboring fire department to bring about the consolidation of our departments. We essentially voted ourselves out of a job because it was the right thing to do. Having worked for Ford Motor Company for 32 years I understand and appreciate the need for teamwork in order to achieve certain goals. 4. In Your view, what is the function of the Planning Commission? The Planning Commission serves at the pleasure of the City Council, therefore, it must be sensitive to the needs and goals of the City Council in its day-to-day activities. The Planning Commission gathers and evaluates the facts of an issue and makes appropriate recommendations to the City Council. The Planning Commission should review,to the best of its ability, all sides of an issue prior to making any recommendations. It should provide an objective view of the facts. 5. How would you see your role as a member of the Planning Commission? As I see my role it would be twofold; first as a member of a team dedicated to providing the City • Council with sound recommendations that fall within the guidelines of the General Plan and secondly as an individual that has a responsibility to the community and the City Council to fairly and objectively evaluate all available data. Eventually, I see my role as one of providing leadership and objectivity. 010 Supplemental Application Planning Commission Page 2 6. What are the current issues facing the Planning Commission? What will the City of Atascadero look like in the future?How do we generate needed revenues while preserving our rural character? How do we provide additional housing to support our current and future needs?How do we fund the growing infrastructure needs of the city and community? 7. Are you familiar with the City's General Plan, and if so, describe briefly your views about the document. I'm hopeful the current rewrite of the General Plan will become a true guideline for the city's future growth rather then another"Nice to have document that we're not going to follow". It should be a living document that will provide continued direction and continuity for our future City Councils. • 8. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Planning Commission achieve? If appointed I would like to see the Planning Commission adopt a policy of"compassionate" growth. By this I mean develop a plan to support the General Plan that takes into account the infrastructure needs of the community, city and the developers as part of an overall planning process. The guidelines should be clear with enough flexibility to accommodate special situations that would clearly benefit Atascadero. My other desire would be to see the Planning Commission adopt a policy to maintain balance between the economic needs of the city and the desire of the community to maintain the rural nature of Atascadero. This policy should also include realistic environmental support particularly as it involves preserving our native oak trees. 9. If there is additional information you would like to share about yourself, please use the following_space provided (optionab. I have an extensive background in sales,marketing and finance. Having lived in Orange County and the Bay Area I'm very sensitive to maintaining the quality of life my wife and I have found in Atascadero. I would like to be a part of the future development of Atascadero by being a member of the Planning Commission.

(A) How to use Planned Development Overlay Zones to mitigate the shortage of buildable lots and encourage open space while not adversely affecting our rural atmosphere and provision of services. (B) Dealing with current non-conforming uses of sites which may adversely affect quality of life, when there is a shortage of conforming sites for demanded housing and services. (C) Balancing rural preservation with the shortage of affordable housing and lack of economic support base for demanded services, given the current funding mechanisms. 7. Are you familiar with the City's General Plan, and if so, describe briefly your views about the document. I have reviewed the current adopted Plan and attended meetings where the proposed Plan updates have been discussed. It is the guiding document as to what we want our community to be and sets parameters on how to achieve that vision. It supports preserving the rural atmosphere with roadways that follow the natural contours of our topography while allowing for higher density housing closer to downtown and service areas. Though the Fiscal Element portion is of critical importance, it is not a required element, and it might be more strategically placed outside of the General Plan. �. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Planning Commission achieve? (A) Encourage maximum participation by community stakeholders. (B) Encourage private restoration of historic buildings and public expansion of parks and recreational areas. (C) Preserve the rural nature of the community while providing access to public services of fire, medical, police and education. (D) Increase business/commercial enterprises and employment opportunities. (E) Increase housing options for all economic levels. 9.

She feels there are many commercial buildings sitting vacant that should be utilized before more development occurs. Jim Sweasy, 9735 Laurel Road, urged the Council to take the steps necessary to insure creation of jobs with adequate salaries for those residents who will eventually take advantage of the proposed affordable housing. Mary Hickey, Santa Rosa Road, expressed her concern regarding potential increases in traffic that may occur on the west side of Atascadero with the proposed General Plan Update. • Shari Pellett, 4255 San Benito Road, admonished the Council for what shep erceives is their lack of attention to the wishes of the people of Atascadero.

Council Member Luna stated that he couldn't support these designations because "multi-family" has been removed from the residential designations. Also, he is concerned with the impact of the • General Commercial zoning on the tax base. He would like to see an Administrative Draft General Plan that the Council can review and analyze as to its economic implications rather than having it all come back with an Environmental Impact Report.

September, 2001 Planning Commission City of Atascadero, CA I wish to have these comments read into the record: I oppose the proposed development of thirty two (32) units on lot 283, which consists of one point nine (1.9) acres. This property is surrounded by San Andres and Navajoa Streets, and Atascadero Avenue. I am submitting to you a petition of signatures from residents of Atascadero objecting to this proposed development. Among the objections are public health and safety issues and changing the general character of our neighborhood. • Si erely, Carmen Barnett • 045 Attachment : B Special City Council Mtg. 9-17-01 • We the residents listed below would like the following to be taken into account by the Atascadero City Council. It is our opinion that what may have started as an update of our General Plan has turned into a rewrite of our General Plan, which we are opposed to, for the following reasons: 1. Public Health and Safety issues are not being taken into account. The proposed plan will create traffic problems, and stress on our sewer treatment facility and water supply that the city is not addressing. 2. The land use changes proposed appear to directly undermine the Basic Community Goals of our General Plan. Some examples of those proposed changes include but are not limited to: changing Recreation and Suburban Residential Land to High Density Multi-Family Housing; changing the Multi-Family housing from 10 and 16 Bedrooms per acre to Units per acre, or even 16 and 22 housing units per acre, and changing the Commercial properties to include High Density Multi-Family Housing. 4. Changes being proposed appear to provide a financial benefit to only a few while having an adverse effect on the majority of Atascadero residents. 3. If the city has made an effort to inform us residents of the changes being proposed we somehow missed it. Better notification of the Public needs to take place. Residents in and around areas being impacted should have been notified by the city of the proposals and they have not been.

OUR CURRENT PLAN IS A WELL WRITTEN AND THOUGHT OUT DOCUMENT. IT REPRESENTS THE WISHES OF THE RESIDENT: WHO CAME HERE TO ENJOY THE RURAL ATMOSPHERE AND SMALL TOWN CHARACTER. WHAT IS PROPOSED NOW, SECOND UNITS ON RESIDENTIAL LOTS; SMALLER LOTS, INCREASE OF RESIDENTIAL UNITS OVERALL AND A DECREASE IN COMMERCIAL USES SOUNDS LUDICROUS TO ME. IT WILL OVERWHELM OUR INTERSTRUCTURE WHILE NOT CONTRIBUTING ONE IOTA TO"AFFORDABLE"HOUSING. THE ONLY THING TO BE ADDRESSED SHOULD BE THE RENOVATION OF DOWNTOWN, SOME "AFFORDABLE" • HOUSING AND PERHAPS AN AREA ACCOMMODATING LIGHT,CLEAN INDUSTRY. WHAT I SEE IN THE CURRENT PROPOSALS ARE ADDITIONAL ASSAULTS ON OUR ALREADY OVER- BURDENED SEWER SYSTEM,STREETS, SCHOOLS,TRAFFIC AND WATER. PLEASE RECONSIDER YOUR CURRENT PROPOSED CHANGES AND LISTEN TO WHAT CITIZENS TOLD YOU IN PRIOR MEETINGS. WE LIKE A CITY WITH LARGE LOTS, RURAL ATMOSPHERE, SMALL SHOPS AND FRIENDLY PEOPLE.

THANK YOU. 9/16/0:: 058 Attachment : D Special City Council Mtg 9-17-01 September 17 2001 Sep , Dear Members of the City Council; • The latest buzzword of staff and council majority are "Smart Growth" and"infill". The real test for"Smart Growth" is: does it require new infrastructure, such as new or widened roads, utility lines, sewer expansion, new water sources, and new fire station? Does it really provide infill building close to the core of town, reducing transportation and traffic problems? The staff claims that building along E1 Camino and Morro Rd. and putting residential into commercial areas is smart growth. How does staff explain the extensive and intensive proposed building of multi family and single family at the extreme north and south ends of towns' How does it explain rental units in all areas of town, including remote areas in hilly terrain, on narrow, winding roads and without seweigp This is not"Smart Growth" or"infill". It is "Stupid Growth". The rewrite proposals flunk the "Smart Growth" test. • 059 Attachment : E Special City Council Mtg 9-17-01 • Fo�z the Recoad: Rama/t/cs to City Counc.ii on 9/17/01, 7:00 /2m By Raymond K. ;anzen, 7777 San y2egoaio Road. fiono,sag-ee (layo2 and /e 2Qow Plemgen s o/ the Counc.i-e: I would Like to azk a dew queetionz th.iz evening. 19hy .ih pug-eie .input .so cons.iztentiy d.izaegaaded?

The Council is now reviewing the work and will decide what will be reviewed in the General Plan text and the EIR. All this time, about 2 years, has been spent on one element only -- the Land Use Element which was NOT up for review. This has produced only a bunch of maps and a list of vague and confusing policy statements. The public has no input on other elements such as circulation, open space, safety, noise, fiscal, etc. Now we learn from McKinney that staff is doing a Master Sewer Plan and a community-wide traffic study and a computer model (of what?). Can you guess why our very own staff is doing these in-house studies? Since outside independent consultants will not produce • these reports, as is done in normal cities, we can be sure these in- house studies will support all the growth McKinney, staff and council majority are proposing. A city with little credibility is doing all the background studies which should be done by impartial, professional and independent consultants. Since McKinney has hired Enough people to do all this work, we have a right to expect that staff will be reduced by at least half when these studies are completed. Please remember, fellow Atascaderans, the real purpose of producing these reports in-house is to make sure they support all of the proposed growth. 061 Attachment : G Special City Council Mtg 9-17-01 • h'r.Mayor & Councilmembers, The recommended changes to the General Plan seem to be leaning strongly to additional residential housing, with no assurance of what percentage of that will be true "affordable housing", if there is still such a thing nowdays. In light of last weeks events, any changes that will be an additional financial burden on both the City Government and the Citizens of this town should be considered long and hard We may all find ourselves in a position of needing to tighten up on all spend- ing, present and future. Now does not seem like a time we should be looking at changes that will impact all areas of City services and additional taxes for our residents. Thank you, Anita Rouse 5703 Carrizo Road Atascadero • • Gryz Attachment H Septemner 17, 2001 Special City Council Mtg 9-17-01 Honorable Mayor and other council members : After this city incorporated in 1979, the first General Plan was • openly discussed in 1980. There was a written document available to residents and council. At intermission time at one hearing George Highland took his copy with changes made to let my husband compare it to his copy. There was full and oDen debate . The 1980 Peoples ' Plan remained intact until 1992. Former Planning Director Henry Engen said recently , "In a normal California city a Draft General Plan document would be tentatively accepted by council and then the Draft Mould be subject to an EEIR. That was the procedure used in 'both 1980 and 1992. Not so with this Rewrite. If there is a Draft document for this Revlrite proposal , it is for council majority eyes only. Oh yes, there have been neighborhood and council meetings and two surveys all of which have been shams because the peoples ' priorities have been ignored. All we have seen is a vague and confusing list of "policies" and a bunch of maps which prove to be false . Residents have not asked for any of the following: 1 . Massive density increases li_:e the one behind Julie Gorman' s single family home on San Benito . Sire will have 66 families on the lot behind her if this outrageous gift to developers is passed. Building; high density at the extreme north and south • ends of town, creating transportation and traffic problems, is dismally poor planning. 2 . Changing commercial and office zoniri� to -resid-e--nitial . All lots in the city chopped do-vin to the smallest lot size in each nei=;hborhood is another gift to developers. 4. Second units for rentals in every sin-le family neighborhood including outlying areas which accordin-_ to the maps are out- side the study area . The maps lie . 5.

Freeways will be clogged as they seek out of town jobs. Also Arrambide said, "It ' s not the General Plan that needs changing. ';ghat needs to change in our community is leadership that allows lopsided implementation of the Plan. " I absolutely agree. I remind Arrambide that since 1979 every council has been controlled by the sO-called pro business faction. (Interpreted that means pro land sveculator and developer. ) So if there has been "lopsided im-olementation of the Plan" , it has cone from Arrambide ' s buddies and now from Mike himself. ,That Atascadero really needs is a new council majority without conflicts of interest which will represent all the people , not just those who profit by their votes .

McNeil • 064 Attachment : I Special City Council Mtg 9-17-01 September 17, 2001 • Atascadero City Council, My name is James Thomas and I have resided at 10695 Vista Road since 1985. In general, I would like to express my concern about proposed changes to our General Plan, which would greatly encourage residential growth, lead to increased density, and exacerbate problems with roads, traffic, schools, fire and crime pro- tection, and the availability of water. Of particular concern to me is learning of the Planning Commission's and City Staff's plan to eventually allow second rental units in zones other than SFR-Y or even a continuance of so-called " guest houses" city-wide. I believe this to be extremely ill-conceived, and that it would open a veritable "Pandora's Box" of problems in my , nei hborhoodbeginning with increased traffic on our substandard "Colony roads 9 9 and our poorly -maintained city streets, and creating even higher fire and evacuation risks in an area which already lives with a greater threat. Further, from the viewpoint of a professional educator, I have seen first-hand the ramifications of ill-thought-out city growth policies in Paso Robles. Thus, I am doubly concerned regarding the impact of city-wide rentals on city schools. In conclusion, I sincerely request that these and any future changes to the current General Plan be subjected to a general public referendum so that the citizens of Atascadero, and not vested interests, can choose the future direction of our city. am es E. Thomas 10695 Vista Rd., Atas. • 065 Attachment : J Special City Council Mtg 9-17-01 September 17, 2001 • MY name is Eric Peterson and I live at 4500 Del Rio Road. I find this process of re-writing the General Plan all very confusing and full of conflicting concepts. For example,the majority Council insists they are listening to public input. If that is so, why are many of the items the public has overwhelmingly objected to still included in the revisions that will be addressed in the General Plan and the EIR. If Council was truly listening, then why are these items still under consideration?Elimination of these items would reduce the cost and work of whoever is assigned the preparation of the Plan text and EIR. Another example is the idea of preparing the EIR before the final General Plan text is approved. This implies that Council considers the changes as submitted are a"done deal' and there would be no revision to the EIR required. If changes are required after public- review of the "draft"text, additional time and expense will be expended for revisions. This does not seem to me to be a prudent use of City funds. There has been discussion in these meetings regarding the infrastructure cost of single family residential construction exceeding the income to the city generated by these units. • This means that nearly every single family residence constructed will increase the tax liability of Atascadero residents. I am told the exception being houses costing somewhere in the million dollar range which are not common. Yet, many of the General Plan changes proposed to date increase single family residences. Where will the money come from to support these additional residences without raising taxes or reducing services in other areas? There has been much discussion regarding"affordable housing." It appears the assumption has been made that reducing lot size will automatically generate affordable housing. Taking any large lot, splitting it and building houses on it may produce housing for people who can afford large down payments but it will not help our local labor force. It will take dedication and additional mechanisms to provide truly affordable housing for Atascadero residents. These mechanisms are not present in the current General Plan rewrite. When does Council intend to generate a realistic approach to the concept of truly affordable housing? There are portions of the policy changes presented that I would support, however, it seems to me the entire package is being crammed down my throat in an"all or nothing" package. This is Council's package and I have seen no indication that there is any intention of vetoing any portion of the presented policy changes, even though the public does not want them. • (page 1 of 2) Guru" These items just show the tip of the iceberg in my mind. I hope Council will answer my questions. In closing,I would like to remind 1VIr.Nimmo that this great country is what it is because dedicated people stood up time and again to fight for what they believed in. I don't believe we are any different. Please enter my comments into the public record. Thank you f r yo time. 067 (v5�c{o �?_;�x'u attachment : K :a/RX•O��Y`� 6 W IOx�IX�q Special City Council ,Mtg 9-17-01 �':__:l`i -o I ����• �;:.�� nor L�i�.Nc�cQzcQ o rte•-a�.,�.�, �i�c� e�,�,U,.e,n,1- 068 J � Attachment .

The over whelming majority of citizens' input has been to keep the General Plan with a rural feeling for our city. The City Council majority and the city staff have not listened. The current City Council majority and city staff are trying to sell us a concept which everybody wants,affordable housing as an excuse to wreck our town. Some well-intended citizens have bought their pitch. The way to hell is paved with good intentions. If you really think about it,houses sell for whatever the market will bear. Put more kindly,why shouldn't someone sell their home(which they may have lived in for ten years)for as much as they can get? After all in most cases it is their major financial asset. The only way houses will not sell at the maximum price is through some type of governmental intervention, more governmental programs. Rental property follows the same basic approach;prices are set by whatever the market will bare. Government programs such as Section 8 are an attempt to assist with affordable rental housing. Most of us are skeptical about government programs interfering with near sacred free market approaches. The present City Council majority's answer to the affordable housing is to increase density. By cutting down on Atascadero's lot sizes and thereby increasing the supply of houses,prices will somehow become affordable. New York's Manhattan Island has one of the highest housing densities on earth,it is not cheap. Our sister city to the south, Shell Beach,has microscopic lots, selling well above Atascadero's prices. It is not cheap. In Silicon Valley one bedroom homes were selling for$600,000 plus. Small size and high density does not ensure affordability,it is a myth. How can you argue with someone who is right for the wrong reasons? The present City Council and staff will indeed create affordable housing by increasing density along the lines they propose,they will sacrifice Atascadero's major virtue our rural character,thereby,making us undesirable and therefore cheap. I'm not buying it! Stephen P.LaSalle • Ora Attachment : N Special City Council Mtg . 9-17-01 To: Atascadero City Council • I remember the drought years. Where will all the water come from for the increased population? What does affordable housing mean? Who will build it? Why will they build such units if they can build units which will give them more of a return on their investment? Why is staff allowing guest houses to be used as rental units when the ordinance prohibits it? I do not want the General Plan rewritten. Elnora S. Garcia 1700 San Ramon Road Atascadero CA 93422 466-5002 -� • • 074 Attachment : 0 Special City Council Mtg 9-17-01 Sept. 17, 2001 To: Atascadero City Council • From: Geraldine Brasher Mr. Mayor and members of the Council, I will be very brief, but it is my belief that you would make a serious mistake if you elect to increase the population density as proposed in the Land Use Element rewrite of the General Plan without first dealing with the problems inherent with a population density increase. These problems include increasing demands upon our water supply and system of delivery, increasing demands upon our sewer system, increasing demands upon our streets' carrying capacity, and increasing vehicular travel that will cause more rapid deterioration of existing streets. Since increased residential building does not result in a compensatory increase in our tax base, we will fall even further behind in providing adequate services to the citizens of our city. Therefore, I urge you to continue working with and under the existing General Plan. Geraldine Brasher 3202 Monterey Rd.

Please continue leading, our City in a positive direction. Sincerely, - Dear Atascadero Mayor and Council Members, In my view I believe the General Plan rewrite is an important undertaking for the City. It is time and money well spent to plan for the future of Atascadero. I agree with the recommendations that have been put forward by the Planning Commission for adoption with a few additional comments. Affordable housing is an important component and a second unit trial area is a positive move to that end. I feel a 1-acre parcel that can provide septic service that is in compliance with the building code standards is the way to proceed,not sewer only. Also, implementing a plan to bring existing granny units in the pilot area into the second unit program so they may be counted towards meeting the.State standards for affordable housing. Multi-family residential in retail districts is also a positive as well as calculating units rather than bedrooms for densities. This will provide more housing for families which are so lacking in our community. Consolidating Land use designations is a positive way to attract and keep a healthy business community. Providing a safe plan for our future is an important task for you to accomplish,and one I fully support.

If ever there was a weasel 'Word, "tiered" is it. Either we get a creek setback that provides the same setback for all, or we know the council will weasel its way out if a favored builder or developer comes along. Then we will hear the same old song: "no problems with this proposal." Atascadero once had a 50 foot creek setback in the General Plan which applied to all. It should never have been thrown out. If,.ve had kept it,the Bowling Alley would not be hanging over the creek bed. It was allowed only a 5 foot setback. Now the owners want to build a horrendous retaining wall to save the building. Tiered creek setbacks will not set a standard. The people of Atascadero treasure their creeks in their natural state with the plants, fish and other wildlife. We don't want our creeks to look like the Los .Angeles River: all cement and a trickle of water running along the bottom. - Please restore the genuine creek setback we were once wise enough to enact. 15� ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 DRAFT MINUTES SPECIAL MEETING ATASCADERO CITY COUNCIL Monday, September 24, 2001 7:00 p.m. GENERAL PLAN UPDATE - CONTINUED Mayor Arrambide called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. and Mayor Pro Tem Scalise-led the Pledge of Allegiance. ROLL CALL: Present: Council Members Clay, Johnson, Luna, Scalise and Mayor Arrambide • Absent: None Others Present: City Clerk Marcia McClure Torgerson Staff Present: City Manager Wade McKinney, Assistant City Manager Brady Cherry, Community Development Director Lori Parcells, Planning Services Manager Warren Frace, Police Chief Dennis Hegwood, and City Attorney Roy Hanley Mayor Arrambide welcomed those present and announced that the meeting was a continuation of the September 17th meeting, and would proceed as before with staff reviewing each policy, Council Members to ask questions of staff, the public allowed to speak for three minutes on each policy and then the Council to discuss and make a determination on each item. 1. General Plan Update-Review of Draft Land Use Plan ■ Fiscal Impact: None Planning Commission recommendations: 1. Council adopt the draft Resolution, thereby endorsing the Draft Land Use Plan as the Preferred Plan for use in the Draft General Plan policy document and Draft Environmental Impact Report; and 2. Council direct staff to incorporate Policy Issues 1 through 10 into the Draft General Plan. [Community Development] • Atascadero City Council Special Meeting 09/24/01 = Pagel 159 ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 Planning Services Manager Warren Frace continued his presentation from the September 17, 2001 meeting. • Policy Option #5: Affordable Housing (#5A: Second Units, #511: Mixed Use Multi- Family Residential in Retail District, #5C: Multi-Family Density (units vs. bedrooms), #5D: Senior Housing, #5E: Inclusionary Housing) Mr. Frace explained the Planning Commission's recommendations for Policy Options #5A - #5E and answered questions of Council. PUBLIC COMMENT Eric Greening, 7365 Valle, stated his concerns with second units and the uses and densities they introduce into neighborhoods whose infrastructure was not designed for these additional densities. He expressed his feeling that Mixed Use Multi-Family Residential zoning in Retail Districts might lead to the creation of strips and suggested it only be applied to the Downtown Master Plan area. Regarding units vs. bedrooms, increases should be tied to the availability of substantial outdoor play and exercise areas. Joanne Main, 8940 San Gabriel Road, Chamber of Commerce Executive Director, expressed the Chamber's support for this policy option. She questioned the need for sewer hookups on second units. Lana Adams, Chair of Atascadero Youth Task Force, expressed her support for more affordable • housing in a prepared statement read by Joanne Main. (Attachment A) Livia Kellerman, 5463 Honda, supported the idea of Multi-Family Residential zoning in Retail Districts being restricted to the downtown area. She encouraged the use of open space in future planning and supports the idea of diversity in affordable housing. Sharon Turner, 7040 Navajoa Avenue, expressed support of cleaning up the property across Atascadero Ave. from the library but urged the Council to use caution in the development of the property. Becky Pacas, 4305 San Benito Road, expressed her opposition to the proposed policies. Henry Engen, 9575 Lakeview Drive, read from a prepared statement expressing his concerns with the proposed policy that would provide for 22 units of housing per acre. (Attachment B) Alan Thomas, 9520 Marchant Way, stated he supports affordable housing but cautioned the Council to create policies that would result in affordable housing and not just increased densities. Steve LaSalle, Atascadero, expressed his concern with the increase in housing costs in the past year. He feels there needs to be very creative approaches to inclusionary housing. Richard Shannon, 5070 San Benito Road,told the Council that Atascadero already allows granny • units and the City only issues 4-5 permits per year, which makes their impact negligible. Atascadero City Council Special Meeting 09/24/01 Page 2 160 ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 Additionally, he feels that by allowing higher densities in certain zones, apartments and other high-density housing will stay affordable. • Mayor Arrambide closed the Public Comment period. There was lengthy Council discussion on the Policy Options#5A -#5E. Council Member Johnson expressed his opinion that affordable housing is important as well as mandated and he is committed to providing this sort of housing. Council Member Clay stated his support for the second unit pilot program in the SFR-Y zone. He recommended that septic be allowed for this pilot program. Mayor Pro Tem Scalise indicated that she could support a pilot program for second units in the SFR-Y zone, but felt strongly that the CUP process must be utilized. Council Member Luna stated that second units are growth inducing, and their impact on roads must be considered. He expressed concern that the pilot program would go citywide eventually and he would be unable to support this. Council Member Luna indicated his support for the inclusionary housing program. Regarding the units/bedroom ratio, he could support 16 units and a density bonus to 22 units to encourage affordable housing. Mayor Arrambide asked the Council to discuss and vote on Policy Option#5A. • Policy Option #5A Mayor Arrambide expressed his opposition to #5A. There was a discussion regarding allowing septic for second units. Mayor Arrambide asked if the Council Members could support an affordable rental rate for second units. Council Member Luna stated that if rents on second units could be required to be affordable, he might be able to support them. MOTION: By Council Member Johnson and seconded by Council Member Clay to include the recommended Policy Option 95A - second units, and to include a study of the septic issue and the affordability issue. Motion passed 3:2 by a roll call vote. (Luna and Arrambide opposed) Recommendations Policy Option#5A: 1. Develop Second Unit standards that address the following: lot size (1 acre minimum), size restriction, sewer connection, covered parking, maximum slope, native tree impacts, architectural appearance, setbacks, neighborhood compatibility, Conditional Use Permit • approval process. Atascadero City Council Special Meeting 09/24/01 - c Page 3 1J ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 2. Begin with a pilot program to allow second units in the SFR-Y (1 to 1.5 acre lot minimum) land use with annual program report to the Planning Commission. • I Eliminate Guest Houses in the SFR-Y land uses. 4. Continue to allow guest Houses in the SFR-X, SFR-Z and SSF land uses. Policy Option #5B: Affordable Housing — Mixed Use Multi-Family Residential in Retail District. Mayor Pro Tem Scalise suggested that for consistency, rather than refer to the land use as Multi- Family Residential, it be called High-Density Residential. Mayor Arrambide expressed his concern with allowing exclusive high-density residential development along El Camino Real and its impact in the pedestrian atmosphere in the downtown area. Council Member Clay also stated his concerns with allowing high-density residential along El Camino Real (Recommended Option #4.) and felt that this would restrict zoning to either all residential or all commercial; he prefers the idea of mixed use. He would like to see #4 eliminated. MOTION: By Council Member Clay to accept the Planning Commission's Recommendation#5B, eliminating#4. Motion failed by the lack of a second. MOTION: By Council Member Johnson and seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Scalise to approve the Planning Commission Recommendations plus: 1) inclusion of language to protect key commercial corners from residential development, 2) designation of the areas in which this will be allowed, and 3) change of the term Multi-Family Residential to High-Density Residential. Motion passed 3:2 by a roll-call vote. (Clay and Luna opposed) Recommended Policy Option #5B: 1. Allow mixed-use multi fafaily residential projects within the Commercial Retail and Commercial Professional zoning districts as a conditionally allowed use. 2. Require mixed use residential to be attached, multi-family type development. 3. Require all residential projects along Morro Road to include a commercial or office storefront along the street frontage with parking to the rear. 4. Allow exclusive v.,.,'� high-density residential development along El Camino Real. • Atascadero City Council Special Meeting 09/24/01 - Page 4 ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 Policy Option #5C: Affordable Housing—Multi-Family Density (units vs. bedrooms) • Council Member Johnson stated that he would like to see a spread of options as to the correct number, but with the emphasis placed on giving benefits to affordable housing. Council Member Clay indicated that he is in favor of the 16 units with bonuses for affordable housing of 25% or more. He would like to see a built in bonus for superior projects that provide areas for recreation and other amenities. Mayor Pro Tem Scalise expressed her support for basing density on units and feels the Planning Commission recommendations are in line with surrounding areas. She supports the density recommendation of 22 units. Council Member Luna stated he couldn't support this policy unless it is 16 units per acre and a density bonus for affordable housing. Mayor Arrambide indicated that while 22 units per acre is not unreasonable, he would like to see that 22 made up of a composite of 16 units per acre and then a density of 6 guaranteed affordable housing deed-restricted for senior housing or handicapped. MOTION: By Council Member Luna and seconded by Council Member Clay to convert bedrooms to units, the number of units allowable to be 16 with the density bonus of up to six units per acre plus the possibility of two extra units depending upon exemplary design characteristics. . Motion passed 5:0 by a roll-call vote. Recommended Policy Option# 5C: 1. Recommend that multi-family densities be calculated by units rather than bedrooms. 2. Recommend increasing the maximum allowable multi-family density to 22 unite 16 units/ac in certain areas with a density bonus of up to six units per acre plus two extra units for exemplary design characteristics. Policy Option 95D: Affordable Housing—Senior Housing MOTION: By Council Member Johnson and seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Scalise to approve the Planning Commission Recommendation. Motion passed 5:0 by a roll-call vote. Recommendation Policy Option 45D: 1. Recommend that the General Plan provide a density bonus incentive for deed-restricted senior housing development projects and that staff look into various options for such. • Atascadero City Council Special Meeting 09/24/01 - Page 5 163 ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 Policy Option #5E: Affordable Housing—Inclusionary Housing Council Member Johnson stated that the language in this option referring to "similar to the City • of San Luis Obispo" should be left open-ended to include good programs elsewhere. Mayor Pro Tem Scalise indicated that she would like to see specifics for both residential and commercial projects. MOTION: By Council Member Clay and seconded by Mayor Arrambide to accept the Planning Commission's recommendation for inclusionary housing with the elimination of "similar to the City of San Luis Obispo," and to address both residential and commercial projects. Motion passed 5:0 by a roll-call vote. Recommended Policy Option#5E: 1. Consider the adoption of an inclusionary affordable housing program similar to tlxtyef San Luis Obispo that addresses both residential and commercial proiects. MayorArrambide called a recess at 9:15 p.m. and called the meeting back to order at 9:35 p.m. Policy.Option #9: Downtown Mixed Use Parking Standards Planning Services Manager Warren Frace provided the staff report and answered questions of Council. PUBLIC COMMENT Richard Shannon, Atascadero, indicated a problem with parking standards in that the parking standards for mixed uses in the downtown are the same as they are for multi-family at the edge of the City. Because there are many small lots in the downtown, it would be difficult to hold them to the same standards as an apartment complex. Joanne Main, 8940 San Gabriel Road, expressed her support for addressing the parking issue in the Downtown. Mayor Arrambide closed the Public Comment period. MOTION: By Council Member Johnson and seconded by Council Member Clay to send this option back to the Planning Commission to be looked at again with recommendations back to the Council including the utilization of an in-lieu fee. Motion passed 5:0 by a roll-call vote. • Atascadero City Council Special Meeting 09/24/01 f Page 6 16 4 ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 Recommended Policy Option#9: 1. Review the parking standards for mixed-use residential development is within the Downtown land use designation as part of the General Plan Update. Policy Option#10: Colony Home Preservation Planning Services Manager Warren Frace provided the staff report and answered questions of Council. PUBLIC COMMENT Livia Kellerman, encouraged the Council to look at preserving the neighborhoods containing Colony Homes as well as preserving the homes. Lon Allan, 6815 Santa Lucia, representative of the Atascadero Historical Society, stated there are approximately 350 Colony Homes still standing in Atascadero. He stated the Society endorses this policy. Steve LaSalle, stated he supports the preservation of the Colony Homes. Mayor Arrambide closed the Public Comment period • Council Member Clay would like to see the policies include provisions for movingColony Y homes both on their lots and to other locations. Mayor Arrambide endorsed the idea of considering historic neighborhoods for the Colony homes. MOTION: By Council Member Luna and seconded by Council Member Johnson to approve the Planning Commission Recommendation on Policy Option #10. Motion passed 5:0 by a roll-call vote. Recommended Policy Option #10: 1. The General Plan will include policies for the historic preservation for Atascadero Colony homes. Policy Option #3: PD-7 District Expansion Planning Services Manager Warren Frace provided the staff report and answered questions of Council. • Atascadero City Council Special Meeting 09/24/01 Page 7 165 ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 PUBLIC COMMENT Alan Thomas, 9520 Marchant Way, asked for clarification on the zones where PD-7 would be • permitted and the lot sizes required. Mr. Thomas felt that using the standard of "lots or contiguous ownership of 2+ acres"would work against affordability. Kelly Gearhart, 6205 Alcantara, stated he supports the PD program, which he feels provides for affordability and nicer projects. Alan Thomas, 9520 Marchant Way, indicated that though he agrees with some of Mr. Gearhart's comments he still feels that this does work against affordability. He would encourage the construction of more condominiums and apartments. Richard Shannon, Atascadero, stated the PD-7 is the best tool Atascadero has had for the last few years to promote affordability. Livia Kellerman expressed her concern with PD-7 districts being open to the entire town. She feels that this would go against the goal of slower growth. Mayor Arrambide closed the Public Comment period. Council Member Luna stated that the PD-7, while providing additional single-family housing, has done so at the expense of apartments and other multi-family housing. MOTION: By Council Member Johnson and seconded by Council Member Clay • to approve the Planning Commission Recommendations for Option #3. Motion passed 4:1 by a roll-call vote. (Luna opposed) Recommended Policy Option 93: 1. Recommend that standards for a new PD-7 type overlay district be developed for the SFR-X land use designation in order to allow small lot single-family infill development. 2. Recommend that RMF property meeting the following standards be preserved as "prime" multi-family areas for apartment development and preclude conversion to PD-7. a. Lot size: Lots or contiguous ownership of 2+ acres b. Slope: Below 10% c. Arterial or collector street access d. Neighborhood compatibility with apartment development. Policy Option #8: Lot Size Inconsistencies Planning Services Manager Warren Frace provided the staff report and answered questions of Council. • Atascadero City Council Special Meeting 09/24/01 - Page 8 166 ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 PUBLIC COMMENT • Alan Thomas, Marchant Way, supports limiting this option to the SFR-Y for the study. Mayor Arrambide closed the Public Comment period Mayor Pro Tem Scalise stated that she would support including both SFR-Y and SFR-Z. Council Member Clay indicated that correcting lot size inconsistencies was one of the main reasons he supported the General Plan Update process. Because some of the one-acre or more lots can be split under the current rules, he does not support including the SFR-X zone. He supports including the SFR-Y and SFR-Z zones or rezoning all to SFR-Y. MOTION: By Council Member Clay to approve the recommended option with the addition that staff look at the most egregious areas in the SFR-Z and SE zone for the possible recommendation to change those to Y. Motion failed for lack of a second MOTION: By Council Member Johnson to approve the option as recommended. Motion failed for lack of a second MOTION: By Mayor Pro Tem Scalise and seconded by Council Member Clay to • develop a customized PD overlay process to be applied to individual lots that are inconsistent with surrounding lots both in the Y, Z and SE zones. Motion passed 3:2 by a roll-call vote. (Luna and Arrambide opposed) Recommended Policy Option 1. Develop a customized Planned Development (PD) overlay process that could be applied to individual lots that are inconsistent with surrounding lots. REFINED LAND USE PLAN MAP Planning Services Manager Warren Frace provided the staff report covering the three areas of the map and answered questions of Council. MAP—North End PUBLIC COMMENT Ursula Luna, asked when a map would be available which would reflect the density increases, and if an actual holding capacity number would be available at some point. • Mayor Arrambide closed the Public Comment period Atascadero City Council Special Meeting 09/24/01 = Page 9 167 ITEM NUMBER: A-2 Date: 10/09/2001 Council Member Luna stated that conservation policies should apply to the Salinas River area and wildlife corridors should be required for all areas including the open space parcels. MOTION: By Council Member Johnson and seconded by Mayor Pro Tem • Scalise to approve the North End Map including the Carizzo Road extension, including studying the office section on the corner of the school property and including equestrian access. Motion passed 4:1 by a roll-call vote. (Luna opposed) MOTION: By Council Member Johnson and seconded by Council Member Clay to go past 11:00 p.m. Motion passed 4:1 by a voice vote. (Luna opposed) MAP—Central Core PUBLIC COMMENT—None MOTION: By Council Member Johnson and seconded by Council Member Clay to approve the Central Core Map. Motion passed 4:1 by a roll-call vote. (Luna opposed) MAP—South End PUBLIC COMMENT • Alan Thomas, Marchant Way, encouraged the Council to increase the total public park space. With increases in density, more park space than is currently planned will be needed to keep pace with current ratios. Mayor Arrambide closed the Public Comment period. Council Member Luna expressed his agreement with Mr. Thomas' comments on increasing park space. MOTION: By Mayor Pro Tem Scalise and seconded by Council Member Johnson to approve the South End Map. Motion passed 4:1 by a roll-call vote. (Luna opposed) MOTION: By Council Member Johnson and seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Scalise to approve the draft Resolution to reflect those changes made on each segment of the map. Motion passed 4:1 by a roll-call vote.

I came last Monday to address Policy Option#5 Affordable Housing. Listening throughout the evening I heard no one voice opposition to providing "affordable housing"but there were and are many questions and concerns as to what"affordable housing"is and how do we provide that rather than giving developers the opportunity to further drive the market up. In fact increasing the supply of housing will assist in moderating the cost of housing but there needs to be more. Perhaps a definition, or at least a clear understanding, as to what"affordable"housing is needs to be included in the General Plan. "Affordable"would hopefully represent a diversity of populations, including low income, in entry-level housing. Perhaps • developers should not be given the choice to pay in-lieu fees but rather provide the 3% low and 5%moderate cost dwelling units. Is it even possible to develop standards, guidelines or regulations to do this? Though I originally came to support the adoption of a General Plan that provides for affordable housing I now see that there needs to be more clarity, if that is at all possible, on this issue and urge the Council to address that as this goes on to the consultants.

Atascadero Mayor and City Council, I sympathize with those supporting affordable housing in Atascadero; however, it will not be accomplished with the Planning commission's recommendations for this rewrite. The city is handing out tremendous entitlements for density, without affordability requirements. In a similar situation, in the face of developer's promises of homes starting at 169 thousand dollars, the city handed out density entitlements without affordability requirements, and we have a project whose homes are selling for over 400 thousand dollars. The current proposals will make it even worse. Recently, in anticipation of the entitlements that the Planning Commission has proposed in the General Plan rewrite, there is a simple old home on our block that is listed at 565 thousand dollars. If your proposed changes are imposed they will result in a potential three lots, and you can easily see that at almost 200,000 dollars per building lot, it is impossible for any developer to provide affordable housing. Similarly, in the highest density areas of the city where we currently have a maximum of 16 bedrooms per acre, or between five to eight housing units per acre, the prices will also skyrocket and the developers will need to build the new maximum of 22 housing units, without affordable housing, in order to pay the cost of the land. In contrast, if the city leaves the current housing densities on all properties, but offers reasonable incentives for moderate income housing, it is much more likely that developers sincerely interested in building moderately priced housing will be able to do so. The city could also offer to match the density bonus for low income housing that the state offers, if they honestly wanted to meet the state's quota for affordable housing. Atascadero could even look at deed restrictions to sell to Atascadero residents before handing out density entitlements. If Atascadero chose to adopt any of these policies instead of the proposed density increases, the city could provide a great deal more affordable housing than it could with the current proposed changes, meanwhile, imposing very little increase in Atascadero's planned housing density. The Update, in it's current form, would undermine future efforts to provide affordable housing; however, it does provide high housing densities not only in the center • of the city, but also at the poles of the city, that set a precedent to expand and fill - - 172 in, at least the entire east side of Atascadero with uncomfortably high housing • densities. Even Paso Robles with its fast paced growth that strains its school district, does not have a Housing Element that is compliant. In Los Angeles County only 10 out of 80 cities have housing elements in compliance. They followed your methods and produced crowding, but not affordable housing. This General Plan Rewrite is a step toward being like 85% of the Los Angeles County cities, that are crowded and still can not meet their quota of affordable housing. Don't crowd us! Eliminate the policies that increase housing density but don't guarantee affordable housing. Eliminate the unnecessary entitlements that increase density and disturb so many of your residents. Stop promoting the deception that these density Increases promote - affordable housing. Don't ruin our General Plan. • 173 Attachment : D Special City Council Mtg 9/24/01 September 2L 20C1 Atascadero City Council • From Dorothy MclNeil Honorable Council : Since it is impossible for me to attend yet ahother one of these off-ni;--ht meetings , I ask that the City Clerk or someone else read my brief statement . The two proposals from you which cause great concern are the second units all over the city, thus making Atascadero unique in that it will have no single fc.mily neighborhoods . I doubt that most people who came here expected it to become a totally rental city. Not only .,ill the second unit be rented, but many of those who prefer single family areas will sell or rent , and speculators from here and out of town will have a field day? If you think the roads are bad ncw, try to imagine their condi- tion with major population increases. Also, you lied to us when you said the white areas were out- side the study for the Rewrite. The other concern I have, among NANY,is the effort to make all lots in town the same size. That is such a ludicrous proposal that it doesn't deserve comment . You must have listened to someone from la la land i•n.enYA�:tollowed him on that stupid idea. The g,.eography of this town could never accept it . Forget it ! This whole Rewrite process has been anything but open, honest and intelligent . The citizens of Atascadero deserve, and have had in the past ,much better treatment . Doroth.—y F. lc1,leil • 174 ITEM NUMBER: A-3 2140 'an 1 DATE: 10/09/2001 53 Atascadero City Council David G. Graham, EA City Treasurers Agenda Report RECOMMENDATION: City Treasurer recommends the City Council approve the City Treasurers reports for the following periods: August 2001 DISCUSSION: The City's investment policy, section VII, states in part that, "it is expected that yields on City investments will regularly meet or exceed the average return on a two-year U. S. Treasury note". We have added a new graph with the August Treasurer's report that will assist the council in evaluating the portfolio performance against this benchmark. The new graph plots the City investment yield against the benchmark yield, on a monthly basis, for the most current 12-month period. Market conditions: As anticipated the FOMC lowered the Federal Funds Rate by 50 basis points in reaction to the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. The latest lowering was actually done between meetings of the FOMC, which should emphasize to everyone the seriousness of our current economic pessimism. All economic indicators, and particularly consumer confidence and spending indicate a recessionary period ahead. Even though it has only been two weeks since the last rate cut, most economists are anticipating another 50 basis point reduction in the Federal Discount Rate to be enacted at the FOMC meeting on October 2"d Investment Strategy: The continuing market decline and possible bottoming out calls for a defensive investment strategy. LAIFs mix of long and short-term maturities continue to be the preferred investment for short and medium term funds. For long-term funds it will be important to restrain maturities to coincide with any anticipated tightening by the Federal Reserve, which could occur in from 23 to 35 months. Assuming that we are at or near the bottom of the Federal Funds rate cuts, as • portfolio maturities occur, LAIF, or equivalent medium term CDs and A-1 commercial paper, will offer the necessary flexibility as rates begin to rise. 175 City Treasurer's Report August 2001 David Graham REPORT IN BRIEF: Cash and Investments Checking $ 516,633 Money Market Accounts 5,235 Certificates of Deposit 2,116,335 Government Securities 1,243,030 Corporate Paper - LAIF 13,419,789 Cash with Fiscal Agents 331,682 Cash in Banks at August 31, 2001 $ 17,632,704 Deposits in Transit - Outstanding Checks (486,774) Cash and Investments at August 31, 2001 $ 17,145,930 Investment Activity Securities Purchased: • Purchase Date Description Type Cost Maturity Date 8/3/2001 Florida Bank,N.A.

ITEM NUMBER: A-5 _-_ DATE: 10/09/01 • Ti�� rr ,ass�!r �, 1 Atascadero City Council Staff Report — Community Services Department Teen After-School Program Agreement with San Luis Obispo County RECOMMENDATION: Council authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with the County of San Luis Obispo Department of Social Services to fund the Recreation, Education and Community (R.E.C.) program for fiscal year 2001-2002. DISCUSSION: The City of Atascadero, Department of Community Services currently conducts the Recreation, Education and Community (R.E.C.) program, a free After-School Program for teens, on the campus of Atascadero Junior High School. This program provides free directed and supervised activities for Atascadero teens. Last fiscal year, the County of San Luis Obispo Department of Social Services provided the funding for this program. Previously, funding was provided jointly by the City of Atascadero and the Atascadero Unified School District. The attached agreement will continue the current funding arrangement for fiscal year 2001-2002. The City, County and the School District have several goals in providing the R.E.C. program, some of which include: ■ To increase school youth resiliency and potential for long-term success by providing effective after-school programs that promote critical development assets. ■ To provide a safe, accessible and affordable environment for these programs. ■ To increase school success with after-school support and the integration of challenging, positive experience into the learning process. ■ To strengthen positive connections between youth and community through the integration of the public, private and non-profit sectors of the community including the arts, recreation, higher education and business. ■ To promote self-confidence, competency, and leadership through regular youth community • services. ■ To improve the overall health of youth through prevention programming addressing gang and violent activity, substance abuse, and overall health issues. 187 ITEM NUMBER: A-5 DATE: 10/09/01 ■ To limit the number of juvenile contacts with Law Enforcement during the after-school • hours, a time when a majority of juvenile crimes occur. The County of San Luis Obispo, Department of Social Services (DSS) also desires the outcomes mentioned above and has again offered to provide forty thousand dollars ($40,000.00) in funding for the R.E.C. program during the fiscal year 2001-2002. County DSS staff who participate on the Atascadero Youth Task Force sought these funds from the County of San Luis Obispo in order to expand the R.E.C. program because it may potentially increase the number of Ca1WORKS participants who work. By providing safe directed activities for teens after school, some Atascadero Ca1WORKS participants may have additional incentive to work, as an adequate and dependable supply of childcare and after-school programs help contribute to increased work productivity for parents as well as decreased tardiness and absenteeism. The City of Atascadero is not obligated under the terms of this agreement to verify any of the specifically stated desired outcomes. Specific performance measures have been established this year to monitor the success of the R.E.C. program. These performance measures are the following: 1. Pre and post-tests for 50% of students attending and will demonstrate a 25% increase in developmental assets. 2. The R.E.C. program will serve 30 to 50 youth daily. 3. Positive connections between students and the community will be measured counting the number of community-based contacts made available, with a minimum of eight (8) r contacts. 4. Female attendance will demonstrate a 10% increase from the previous year. 5. To reduce the number of after-school discipline or detention incidents by 10%. City of Atascadero staff will work closely with Atascadero Unified School District staff to monitor our progress toward achieving the above stated performance measures. Staff is recommending that the City Council authorize this agreement between the City of Atascadero and the County of San Luis Obispo Department of Social Services, which will allow for the continued funding of the R.E.C. program. FISCAL IMPACT: None. Approval of the proposed Agreement with the County of San Luis Obispo, will provide the City of Atascadero with $40,000.00 during Fiscal Year 2001/2002, to fund after-school recreation programs for teens on the campus of Atascadero Junior High School.

Our last report estimated the total backlogged maintenance to be more than $25,500,000.00. Road Type Miles of Road Cost Circulation Plan Road 65 $8,789,621 City Maintained Local Roads 76 $9,500,000 Non-City Maintained Local Roads 29 $7,250,000 The Atascadero Road Program is a program to maintain and protect the roads of Atascadero in an organized, efficient and cost-effective manner. This is the fourth City Council meeting on the Atascadero Road Program. The first meeting was a workshop on road maintenance and potential strategies for road repair. The second provided a detailed background on the roads of Atascadero, a breakdown of the road maintenance backlog and alternatives for the repair, maintenance and rehabilitation. The third meeting the Council accepted for maintenance roads that the County had accepted and portions of San Gabriel Road and San Marcos Road. The Council also gave staff direction on trench cuts, development standards and assessment districts. 200 ITEM NUMBER: C- 1 DATE: 10/09/2001 Tonight staff will update Council on Public Works Department actions, present for approval programs on trench cuts and assessment districts and present for approval an Ordinance on road improvement requirements for new development. DISCUSSION: I. Atascadero Public Works Department Actions • Hiring new maintenance workers The Public Works Maintenance Division is in the process of recruting two new Maintenance Workers I's. One is a new position funded by Council and the other is to replace a retiring Maintenance Worker. These position will be assigned to the Street Division and help with road maintenance and repair. • Crack Sealing The Public Works Maintenance Division is testing different crack seal machines on Atascadero Streets. The Council funded the purchase of a crack sealing machine in the last budget. Crack Sealing is an important part of a road program. Sealing the cracks will reduce water infiltration under the road surface and increase the life of the road. • • Additional Funding Staff is preparing applications for the 2002 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). One application is for $394,000.00 for road maintenance. These funds will be used to improve roads on the Atascadero Road Program Maintenance List. • Updated Atascadero Road Program Map and Maintenance List (See Attachment A & B) Several road maintenance projects have been completed, many projects are in design and will be constructed this spring. The Atascadero Road Program Map and Maintenance List have been revised to reflect these changes. Projects completed: ➢ El Camino Real Rehabilitation, Santa Rosa to Morro Road ➢ Santa Barbara Road Reconstruction and Overlay, US 101 to El Camino Real ➢ Reconstruction of the intersection of San Gabriel Road and San Marcos Road. Project scheduled for this spring: ➢ Curbaril Overlay, El Camino Real to Atascadero Ave ➢ San Fernando Overlay, Graves Creek Road to Balboa Road Santa Ysabel reconstruction and widening, Curbaril to State Route 41 201 ITEM NUMBER: C- 1 DATE: 10/09/2001 ➢ El Camino Real Overlay, Morro Road to Rosario ➢ West Mall Reconstruction and Overlay, El Camino real to Capistrano ➢ Capistrano Overlay, West Mall to Sycamore ➢ Sycamore Overlay, Capistrano to Curbaril Road ➢ Santa Cruz Road Construction ➢ Maintenance District Projects, in maintenance districts II. Trench Repair Program A paved road is constructed by placing an asphalt layer and a base layer over compact native soil. A trench cut occurs when a utility (water, gas, electric, telephone, cable TV, sewer, storm drain or other) is placed in the road after it is paved. The asphalt is cut and removed, a trench is dug, the utility is placed and the trench is back filled and paved over. Poor construction, settling backfill, poor paving and lack of maintenance have all lead to failure of trench repairs. When the trench repair fails and settles it produces a dip in the road and-cracks around the edges of the repair. The dip is uncomfortable to drive over and the cracks allow water to get under the surface of the road. Poor trench repair can lead to a bumpy and uncomfortable ride. Staff proposes the following new Trench Repair Program to insure proper construction and • inspection of trenches. The basic requirements of the Ordinance are: • Encroachment Permits. The Engineering Division of the Public Works Department will now issue encroachment permits. In the past the Community Development Department issued encroachment permits. Any persons working in the right-of-way without an encroachment permit will be stopped and required to obtain an encroachment permit. The fee for the encroachment permit will be the actual cost to administer and inspect the trench repair, including a 1-year bond release inspection. • Inspection. A City inspector will inspect the trench cut. This will include asphalt removal, digging of the trench, bedding of utility, backfill and compaction of trench, placement of base material, saw cut for"T" section and paving. (See Attachment C) • Trench Specifications. Care in removal of existing asphalt and top trench material. Mitigate ground water in the trench. Backfill shall be select material approved by the City Engineer, sand, base or slurry. Native soil will not be allowed in the trench. Proof of compaction of trench backfill. Saw cut and remove asphalt 18 inches from the edges of the trench after the trench is backfilled. Pave to City Standard. • Cash bond and one year inspection. A cash bond will be taken when the encroachment permit is issued. The City will inspect the trench 1-year after the trench is completed. The party that requested the encroachment permit and put up the bond will repair all trench deficiencies discovered at the inspection. This could include crack seal, skin patch, remove and replace trench paving and in extreme cases where the backfill has failed, remove all backfill, replace and repave. 202 ITEM NUMBER: C- 1 DATE: 10/09/2001 • Trench Cut Moratorium. There will be a moratorium on trench cuts in a road for 2 years after • it has been paved. The City will publish a two-year paving schedule every year to keep the community and utility companies posted on the planned projects. If a utility needs an emergency repair or new development occurs and the recently paved road needs to be cut the road shall be repaired to the condition prior to the cut, including overlaying the entire road. If these provisions are approved the Public Works Department will meet with local developers, contractors and engineers to explain the new requirements. III. Assessment Districts The funding for road maintenance has increased dramatically over the last four years. The City Council made road maintenance their top priority and allocated State and Local funds to repair the roads. The majority of the funds are targeted at Circulation Plan Roads, arterials and collectors. These are roads the general community use every day, Santa Lucia, Curbaril, West Mall, El Camino Real, San Gabriel, Atascadero Ave. Local City Maintained Roads are maintained by the Public Works Maintenance Division. These are neighborhood roads, Junipero Ave, Llano Road and Arena Road. The Public Works Crew is placing skin patches, crack sealing, fixing potholes and other minor repairs on these roads. The City has 76 miles of City maintained local roads and the Public Works Maintenance Division can not keep up with the volume of work. • Assessment Districts are a tool that can be used to fund improvements for the roads through an assessment on the property tax bill. This assessment is approved by a vote of the parties effected. This tool could be used by neighborhoods to fund paving dirt roads, reconstruction of old roads, the building drainage systems to keep storm water off roads and to provide preventive maintenance on roads as they age. This tool could be used on non-City maintained roads or City maintained roads. A City wide assessment district could be used to repair and maintain the roads of the entire City. This would require an election with 51 percent of the community favoring the assessment district. This would be a significant undertaking. The community survey completed in 1999 indicated that the residents would not support an assessment at a level sufficient to improve the streets. It is possible to gain approval of an assessment and would take community leaders to build consensus and gain community support. Several cities in California have successfully completed City wide assessment districts. In Atascadero some neighborhoods have roads in poor condition and are motivated to fund improvement and maintenance for their roads. The best method to improve and maintain the roads is to approve two assessment districts. One district to improve the road, which would sunset after the costs are paid and one district to maintain the road as needed, this cost would be ongoing. There are several major policy issues that face the City should the assessment district option be • implemented. 203 ITEM NUMBER: C- 1 DATE: 10/09/2001 • ❑ Will the City accept the roads following improvement to City standard through the assessment district process. ❑ Who will pay for the up front costs of developing an assessment district? In the past, the City has accepted roads that were improved to City standards. However, in the last several years since the Council has targeted roads and initiated the Atascadero Roads Program, the City has maintained a policy of only accepting roads designated in the General Plan Circulation Element or arterials/collectors. Because the City's current road responsibility is so vast and resources limited no additional local or neighborhood roads have been accepted. Staff would recommend that this policy be continued. It does increase the inventory of non City maintained roads. The costs of developing an assessment district include both out of pocket expenses and labor. This has been one of the major impediments to the creation of assessment districts. Contract engineer services are expensive and the assessment district process requires a great deal of time and product. The City's Public Works Department does not have adequate staff to provide engineering assistance to prospective neighborhoods. Recognizing the Council's direction and desire to develop a standardized approach to assessment districts reducing the financial exposure to neighborhoods staff has developed the following approach. Public Works will assume the lead on assisting localized assessment districts. Staff would prepare press releases about assessment districts inviting assessment district petitions once annually. Coordination of all assessment districts at one time will help reduce cost and staff time. Because of the costs of issuance associated with bond financing a minimum borrowing of $1,000,000 is recommended. Based upon this threshold, staff would only begin an assessment district process if the assessment district or combination of districts exceeds an estimated improvement cost of$1,000,000.00 Prior to the approval for the assessment district there is significant staff time and costs. Staff time would be spent on meetings, preliminary construction estimates, district boundaries, administration with assessment district engineer, staff reports, administration and other tasks. Funds would need to be spent on an assessment district engineer, plans and specifications for the improvments and an engineer's report. The estimated time and expense that would go into a typical assessment district prior to approval are estimated as: • Staff Time 80 hours • Assessment District Engineer Support $3,000.00 • Plans and Specifications $4,000.00 to $10,000.00 • Engineers Report $5,000.00 to $10,000.00 If the assessment district is eventually approved these cost can be rolled into the assessment. If the assessment district is not approved there is no mechanism for reimbursement to the City. The following process is recommended to insure that if an assessment district is requested the • chances of approval are high before the cost and time to the City are too great. This process is detailed in Attachment D. 204 ITEM NUMBER: C- 1 DATE: 10/09/2001 Assessment District Program • • An interested property owner meets with the Public Works Department to discuss the program and the requirements. • A package is given to the property owners and a petition circulated to be signed by 60% or more of the affected property owners and presents it to the City Engineer. • If petitions are received for districts representing $1 million or more in improvement costs, the City Engineer will present the informal petition(s) to the City Council. Staff will request direction to: ➢ Draw up the tentative boundaries of an Assessment District ➢ Assess the condition of the existing street ➢ Prepare a preliminary cost estimate for construction of the improvements necessary to repair existing deficiencies and bring the street into substantial conformance with City standards. ➢ Prepare a preliminary cost estimate for continued maintenance of the road. ➢ Estimate the costs of establishing the assessment districts (hiring an Assessment Engineer, hiring Bond Counsel, bond issuance costs, etc.) above and beyond the actual construction costs. ➢ Estimate the yearly cost to each property owner based on an assumed interest rate and amortization period. ➢ Schedule a community meeting with the property owners and present the information and approximate costs. The approximate City costs to this point are estimated to be $3,000.00 and 30 hours of staff time on a one street Assessment District with few issues or protests. The following steps would occur if, after the community meeting with the property owners, the City Engineer determines there is sufficient commitment from the property owners to continue: • A formal petition in conformance with the Municipal Bond Act is circulated. The petition is signed by the requisite number of landowners and filed with the City Clerk. An engineer then certifies that the petition meets legal requirements and files a certificate with the City Clerk. • Civil engineer is hired or staff is directed to design the plans and specifications for the project and the project is sent out to bid. • City Council adopts a Resolution determining to proceed, appointing a engineer and bond counsel to handle the proceedings and a Resolution of Intention to Acquire and Construct Improvements. • Engineer's Report is prepared. • 205 ITEM NUMBER: C- 1 DATE: 10/09/2001 . • The Engineer's Report is then filed with the City Clerk and presented to the City Council for approval. City Council adopts a Resolution of Preliminary Approval of the Engineer's Report and appointing a time and place of two public hearings on Engineer's Report. • The first public hearing is conducted for information purposes only. • Ballots are sent to all parties effected by the Assessment District. • The second public hearing is held. The mayor opens the hearing for oral protests or endorsements, and after everyone is heard the public hearing is closed and the matter is subject to City Council deliberation. After deliberation, the following actions are considered: a. If majority protest is filed: 1. The Assessment District fails and this agenda item is closed. 2. Resolution Overruling Protests is adopted. Resolution Approving the Engineer's Report, Ordering the Acquisitions, and Confirming the Assessment is adopted. Resolution Awarding Construction Contract for the improvements is adopted • b. If a majority protest is not filed: 1. Resolution approving the Engineer's Report, ordering the acquisitions, and confirming the assessment is adopted. Resolution awarding construction contract for the improvements is adopted • The improvements are completed. Currently the City Capital Projects Budget has $50,000.00 allocated for Engineer Assessment District Report. These funds could be used for the initial costs discussed in this section of the staff report. Staff is requesting direction on this program. FISCAL IMPACT: Trench Repair Program, There will be some administration costs in setting up the program. Once the program is set up the parties requesting the Trench Cut would pay for all costs. Assessment Districts, There would be costs to the City. This would depend on how many Assessment Districts were requested and how many were approved. • 206 ITEM NUMBER: C- 1 DATE: 10/09/2001 ALTERNATIVES: • Trench Repair Program, Most of the requirements recommended in the Ordinance are already required in the Atascadero Municipal Code but have not been enforced. The new requirement is the 1-year inspection and bond. An alternative would be not to require the 1-year inspection and bond. Assessment Districts, Require the neighborhood to fund the staff time and costs of creating the Assessment District prior to the approval of the District. This would eliminate the financial risk to the City and probably limit the number of Assessment Districts.

DESIGNED BY: SBK D9 25 01 TRENCH REPAIR REQUIREMENTS ^702 FILE NAME: AT702a.D WG Subject: Assessment District— Dear, Thank you for your recent inquiry regarding the maintenance of . What follows is the basic concept, that Public Works is considering, to help the citizens of Atascadero maintain their roads. The impacts of this proposal would be: Considerable staff time if the City Council directs the City Engineer to begin informal assessment district formation proceedings. • Substantial cost to the City, or the property owners, to produce Engineers Report and provide Assessment District professional support. If the District is approved, these costs could be rolled into the District. • It is recommended that, if this program is approved, these requests be processed in groups once a year. The larger the assessment district is, the lower the percentage of costs is administrative, and staff time could be made more efficient. The cost of this requires the property owners to seek financing to fund the necessary improvements and long term maintenance. Formation of assessment districts is one way of obtaining the necessary financing. By forming assessment districts, the cost of the improvements can be amortized over a 15 to 20 year period and the cost of road maintenance would be spread out as long as the district continued. Due to the long-term cost and commitment the property owners must make the City seeks the assurance that 60% or more of the property owners,who will benefit from the improvements, are willing to participate before formal assessment district proceedings are begun. The informal process is as follows: 1. An interested property owner meets with the Public Works Department to discuss the program and the requirements. 2. A package is given to the property owners and a petition circulated to be signed by 60% or more of the affected property owners and presents it to the City Engineer. 3. The City Engineer presents the informal petition to the City Council, and asks that he be directed to: tentative • a. draw up the tenta boundaries of an Assessment District 213 • b. assess the condition of the existing street c. prepare a preliminary cost estimate for construction of the improvements necessary to repair existing deficiencies and bring the street into substantial conformance with City standards. d. prepare a preliminary cost estimate for continued maintenance of the road. e. estimate the costs of establishing the assessment districts (hiring an Assessment Engineer,hiring Bond Counsel,bond issuance costs, etc.) above and beyond the actual construction costs. f. estimate the yearly cost to each property owner based on an assumed interest rate and amortization period. g. schedule a community meeting with the property owners and present the information and approximate costs. The above steps would occur if the City Council directs the City Engineer to begin informal assessment district formation proceedings. These proceedings are to assure the • City that adequate interest still exists in district formation once the approximate cost to the property owners are known. This assurance is necessary since significant City staff time and City costs will be involved. The following steps would occur if, after the community meeting with the property owners, the City Engineer feels sufficient substantial and serious commitment from the property owners to continue: 1. A formal petition in conformance with the Municipal Bond Act is circulated. The petition is signed by the requisite number of landowners and filed with the City Clerk. An engineer then certifies that the petition meets legal requirements and files a certificate with the City Clerk. 2. City Council adopts a Resolution Determining to Proceed. 3. City Council adopts a Resolution Appointing Engineer and Bond Counsel to handle the proceedings. 4. City Council adopts a Resolution of Intention to Acquire and Construct Improvements. Note at this point the proceedings usually stop for a period of a few weeks to • several months while the Engineer prepares the Engineer's Report as directed in the Resolution of Intention. The Engineer's Report can be submitted based 214 on either schematic or detailed plans and specifications, depending on the • desires of the City. 5. Civil engineer is hired or staff is directed to design the plans and specifications for the project and the project is sent out to bid. 6. Engineer's Report is prepared and consists of- a. fa. detailed or schematic plans and specifications of the improvements to be constructed. b. maps and descriptions of lands, easements, and property necessary to be acquired. c. an itemized Engineer's estimate of the cost of acquisitions and improvements. d. a diagram of the assessment district showing each lot or parcel of land within the assessment district. e. an assessment roll showing the actual assessments against the properties benefited. f. a proposed maximum annual assessment to reimburse the City for registration • and administration of expenses. 7. The Engineer's Report is then filed with the City Clerk and presented to the City Council for approval. 8. City Council adopts a Resolution of Preliminary Approval of the Engineer's Report. 9. City Council adopts a Resolution Appointing Time and Place of two public hearings on Engineer's Report. 10. City Council adopts Resolution Describing Boundaries of Assessment District. 11. City Council adopts Resolution Establishing Prevailing Wage Rates. Note at this point the proceedings stop for at least 45 days(typically 60 to 75 days)for various notices to be given advising property owners of the two public hearings and their associated rights. 12. The first public hearing is conducted for information purposes only. • 215 . 13. In compliance is Proposition 218 the second public hearing is noticed in writing 45 days in advance of the hearing. The official notice includes: a. total assessment for entire assessment district; b. assessment chargeable on owner's parcel; C. duration of proposed assessment; d. reason for assessment e. basis on which amount of proposed assessment was calculated; f. date, time and place of public hearing; g. summary of voting procedures and effect of majority protest. 14. The second public hearing is opened and a staff report is made which consists of: a. an explanation by Bond Counsel of the purpose of the hearing. b. a report by the City Clerk that the necessary affidavits of notice are on file . an that said notices were given within the statutory time limits provided. C. a report by the City Clerk on the written protests filed by property owners prior to the second public hearing and the percentage of protest. 15. The mayor opens the hearing for oral protests or endorsements, and after everyone is heard the public hearing is closed and the matter is subject to City Council deliberation. 16. After deliberation,the following actions are considered: a. If majority protest is filed: 1. The Assessment District fails and this agenda item is closed. 2. Resolution Overruling Protests is adopted. Resolution Approving the Engineer's Report, Ordering the Acquisitions, and Confirming the Assessment is adopted. Resolution Awarding Construction Contract for the improvements is adopted • b. If a majority protest is not filed: 216 Resolution approving the Engineer's Report, ordering the acquisitions, and • confirming the assessment is adopted. Resolution awarding construction contract for the improvements is adopted 17. The are improvements completed. p p In addition to the above, there are numerous steps related to issuance of bonds,payment of bond proceeds, disposition of surplus bond proceeds, etc. which also occur concurrent with or soon after construction of the improvements. As can be seen, the assessment district process is lengthy and potentially costly to the City. Therefore the City has instituted the informal petition process to "test the waters" before formal assessment district proceedings are undertaken. If you wish to initiate the assessment district process,please begin with the informal petition and present it to the City Engineer. To assist you with this process,we are enclosing a copy of an informal petition for your street. If you have any questions regarding the above,please do not hesitate to contact us. Steven B.

The studies performed on streets in the cities of Los Angeles and San Francisco have concluded that pavement degradation occurs no matter how well the excavation is restored; WHEREAS, the cutting of the pavement and trenching in the streets permits water seepage into the street as well as weakening pavement support around the patch, thereby . allowing deterioration at an accelerated rate; WHEREAS, millions of dollars in public funds have been invested to build, maintain, and repair the streets within the City's geographical boundaries, and the City holds these streets as an asset for its citizens. It is desirable to adopt regulations that will help protect the structural integrity of City streets and thereby safeguard the value of the public investments in City streets for the benefit of all City residents, by requiring proper repair with quality materials, inspection, and follow up inspection and further repair if the trench repair fails, to help offset the shortened life of the streets that are cut. WHEREAS, entities making and benefiting from an excavation in a City street also will comply with standards and requirements for compaction, backfill and pavement restoration and resurfacing that ensure the best possible restoration of the paved surface over and adjacent to the trench or cut; WHEREAS, regulation of excavation in City streets to help reduce disruption of and interference with public use of the streets, and to help prevent damage and maintain the safe condition of the streets protects the public health, safety and welfare, is a valid and appropriate exercise of the City's police power, and is a municipal affair; WHEREAS, with respect to the installation of telecommunications facilities, Section 253(c) of the Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996 expressly recognizes the authority of local governments to impose reasonable nondiscriminatory requirements upon telecommunications providers using the public right-of-way, and California Government Code 10 50030 specifically authorizes the imposition of permit fees that do not exceed the reasonable f providing the service for which the fee is charged.costs o p g aged. A Encroachment Permit Fee imposed by this ordinance and any associated Resolution is such a reasonable fee. NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ATASCADERO DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: SECTION I ORDINANCE Article 4 of Title 7, Public Works, Chapter 15, Encroachments on Public Property, of the Atascadero Municipal Code is hereby amended,to add the following sections as follows: 7-15.419.

Hanley, City Attorney 222 ITEM NUMBER: C-2 ■ s; ■ ■' DATE: 10/09/2001 1918 ' 1979 • CM Atascadero City Council Staff Report — Public Works Department Traffic Way Closure RECOMMENDATION: Council authorize the Public Works Director to temporarily close Traffic Way for the construction of the public improvements as needed for public safety and construction operations. DISCUSSION: • The developers of Tract 2317 on Traffic Way, between San Jacinto Ave and Chico Road, have begun construction of the public improvements. These improvements consist of the reconstruction and widening of the road, the construction of curb and gutter and a multi-purpose path on the east side of the road, installation of water and sewer mains, wire utility relocation and other improvements. The contractor requested 11 weeks of closure from the City Council at the May 8, 2001 Council meeting. This closure was for sewer and water line installation and road improvments. The Council thought 11 weeks was too long and approved the Public Works Director to allow 14 days of closure. The 14 days have been used and Traffic Way is now opened. The rough grading for the road is completed and a portion of the utilities have been installed. The contractor has requested 60 additional days of closure to complete the improvements (see attached schedule). The 60 days is requested for public safety, to speed construction and for construction operations. The road could be opened a portion of the 60 days to one and two way traffic. It is recommended that the public works director work closely with the contractor and close the road only where necessary for public safety and construction operations. The remaining time the road would be open to one or two way traffic. The detour from Traffic Way is San Jacinto Ave to Estrada Ave to San Anselmo Ave to Del Rio • Road to Chico Road and back to Traffic Way. Notification throughout the northeast part of the City and in the media will help the traveling public select alternate routes to their destination. The detour worked well during the past closure and the City received no complaints. 22 ITEM NUMBER: C-2 DATE: 10/09/2001 FISCAL IMPACT: None ALTERNATIVES: Require Traffic Way to remain open.
