Ferrocarril Oversized Accessory Structure USE20-0007 / Joy Planning Commission | City of Atascadero | www.atascadero.org | fb.me/planningatascadero DISCUSSION: Existing Surrounding Uses / Parcel Configurations: Existing Zoning Existing Aerial / Surrounding North: South: East: West: Open Space (OS) Residential Single Family (RSF-X) PD9 Residential Single Family (RSF-X) PD9 Open Space (OS) Summary: The applicant proposes a 1,200 square-foot metal structure with 940 square feet of fully enclosed space. The structure would serve as an open carport and fully enclosed garage. The site plan provided shows the new structure located near the middle of the property, between the existing residence and the western property line. The garage is enclosed with large garage doors on three sides. The proposed garage will rise approximately 14 feet high from the ground to the peak of the roofline. The proposed carport section of the building will rise approximately 8 feet high from the ground to the peak of the roofline. The applicant is proposing to paint the exterior gray with white trim. Analysis: According to Atascadero Zoning Ordinance, residential accessory structures are permitted within the Residential Single-Family zoning district. The Atascadero Municipal Code (AMC) states that accessory structures are limited to a floor area no greater than fifty percent (50%) of the gross floor area of the principle structure. Accessory structures Proposed carport and Garage Existing Residence 6 ITEM 2 | 3/3/2020 N. Ferrocarril Oversized Accessory Structure USE20-0007 / Joy Planning Commission | City of Atascadero | www.atascadero.org | fb.me/planningatascadero may exceed the prescribed floor area if they are approved for a Conditional Use Permit by the Planning Commission (AMC 9-106). In accordance with the Atascadero Municipal Code (AMC), all buildings within the RSF zoning district must be adhere to the 30 foot building height maximum (AMC 9.4.113(a)). All development in this district must also adhere to the following setback distances (AMC 9.4.106-108):  Front Setback: Twenty-five (25) feet  Side Setback: Five (5) feet  Rear Setback: Ten (10) feet  Interior Setback: Ten (10) feet The parcel is subject to Planned Development 9 (AMC 9.9.654) standards which set specific parking standards for residential uses. P lanned Development 9 requires that for each residential unit there be:  Two covered parking stalls, totaling 20 feet by 20 feet  One guest stall measuring 9 feet by 18 feet (may be located in the driveway) The applicant intends to renovate their existing atta ched garage into a living space, requiring them to replace their 20’x20’ garage as mandated by the planned development. The requirement is fulfilled with the proposed structure providing one space in the garage and another in the carport. The guest stall requirement is satisfied by the driveway. The applicant proposes to utilize an existing driveway entrance and create a decomposed gravel driveway to the new structure. The project will not be connected to any utilities. The applicant plans to use the structure as a garage and storage area for vehicles and tools. The project is not expected to conflict with policies in the Atascadero General Plan or regulations in the AMC. Since the existing residence on the site covers approximately 1,041 square-feet, the new structure exceeds the 50% requirement and therefore requires a Conditional Use Permit approved by the Planning Commission. The construction of the project is not expected to impact on the nearby Salinas River or Graves Creek. Site and Design The proposed structure will be highly visible from N. Ferrocarril Road. The building will be metal and the applicant is proposing to paint the exterior gray with white trim. The building fits in with the agricultural uses in the neighborhood. The applicant is limited to locations to put the new structure because the property has two large PG&E easements. The garage is proposed to be located in the middle of the two easements. 7 ITEM 2 | 3/3/2020 N. Ferrocarril Oversized Accessory Structure USE20-0007 / Joy Planning Commission | City of Atascadero | www.atascadero.org | fb.me/planningatascadero The property has existing horse stalls with a metal covering. Staff cannot locate permits for the horse stall covering and has added a condition that the structure be permitted or removed prior to finalizing the building permit for the garage. The property also has one cargo container. The applicant has notified staff that this is a temporary cargo container for storage during the remodel of their residence. The use of a cargo container for temporary on-site storage associated with a construction project is allowed. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The proposed project is Categorically Exempt (Class 3) from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., “CEQA”) and CEQA Guidelines (Title 14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq.) CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 153 03, because it is a new accessory structure and will not require any grading on slopes over 20%. FINDINGS: To approve the Conditional Use Permit, the Planning Commission must make the following findings. These findings and the facts to support these findings are included in the attached PC Resolution 2020. Conditional Use Permit (AMC Section 9-2.110(b).(3).(iv) 1.

Ferrocarril Oversized Accessory Structure USE20-0007 / Joy Planning Commission | City of Atascadero | www.atascadero.org | fb.me/planningatascadero 1. The proposed project or use is consistent with the General Plan; and Fact: Detached accessory structures are consistent with the Single-Family Residential land use designation of the General Plan. Land Use, Open Space and Conservation Element Program 1.1.6 requires the size, use and appearance of accessory structures in the residential zoning districts to be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed structure has an agricultural appearance in keeping with the area. While the proposed structure is over 50% of the size of the primary residence, it will serve a residential use, including a garage, a carport, and storage space. 2. The proposed project or use satisfies all applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance; and Fact: As proposed, the project will meet the property’s setback, height and other site design requirements. The use of the structure will be limited to uses permitted by the Zoning Ordinance. The project, with Planning Commission approval of this Conditional Use Permit, satisfies all applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance related to residential accessory structures. 3. The establishment, and subsequent operation or conduct of the use will not, because of the circumstances and conditions applied in the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of the general public or persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the use, or be detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity of the use; and Fact: The use of the accessory structure on the property includes a carport stall for one vehicle and indoor garage and storage space. This is a typical use in residential single-family neighborhoods. The proposed structure will be constructed to meet the standards of the building code. 4. The proposed project or use will not be inconsistent with the character of the immediate neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development; and Fact: There are similar accessory structures located on neighboring properties. The recommended color pallet will be compatible with the existing residence and is compatible with the surrounding structures. 5. The proposed use or project will not generate a volume of traffic beyond the safe capacity of all roads providing access to the project, either existing or to be improved in conjunction with the project, or beyond the normal traffic volume of the surrounding neighborhood that would result from full development in accordance with the land use element; and Fact: The addition of a residential accessory structure will not contribute additional traffic in the neighborhood. The use of the structure will be similar to uses currently onsite. No additional residential units will be added. 6. The proposed project is in compliance with any pertinent City policy or criteria adopted by ordinance or resolution of the City Council. Fact: Detached accessory structures are permitted in the residential districts. The proposed structure, with staff recommended conditions, is compliant with all related zoning codes and plans. 15 ITEM 2 | 3/3/2020 N.
