Atascadero City Council
Staff Report – Public Works Department
Authorizing Temporary Road Closures for
Hot El Camino Cruise Nite and Colony Days Parade Route
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Council:
1. Adopt Draft Resolution A authorizing temporary road closures and restrictions on
August 14, 2020 for the Hot El Camino Cruise Nite.
2. Adopt Draft Resolution B authorizing temporary road closures and restrictions on
October 3, 2020 for the Colony Days Parade Route.
DISCUSSION:
Historically, the City participates in two special events each year that require
encroachment permits from Caltrans: Hot El Camino Cruise Nite and the Colony Days
Parade. Both of these events require the closure of Highway 41 at El Camino Real and
the closure of the US 101 northbound Highway 41 exit. In order to obtain a Caltrans
encroachment permit, the City must provide Caltrans with a traffic control and detour
plan for the Highway 41 closures. In addition, Caltrans requires a City Council
resolution authorizing the temporary road closure of El Camino Real and the other
streets affected along the routes.
While we do not know whether these events will take place this year due to COVID -19
and potential social distancing requirements, it is recommended that we apply for the
Caltrans permits as regularly scheduled. The ability to hold these events in a safe a nd
compliant manner will be continually evaluated as new Federal, State and County
mandates and guidelines are issued. Public safety is of primary concern and each
event will be cancelled at a later date if it is determined that the event cannot be held
without jeopardizing public safety or if it would be in violation of a Public Health Order.
Hot El Camino Cruise Nite: Friday, August 14, 2020 (event 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.)
This event begins at 6:30 p.m. but requires temporary road closures in advance of the
start time to secure and clear the event route. The following road segments are proposed
to be closed from 5:00 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. for the Hot El Camino Cruise Nite event:
El Camino Real from Curbaril Avenue to Traffic Way
San Luis Avenue from Curbaril Avenue to Pueblo Avenue
Pueblo Avenue from San Luis Avenue to El Camino Real
Page 22 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: A-3
DATE: 04/28/20
East Mall from El Camino Real to Palma Avenue
West Mall from El Camino Real to Lewis Avenue
Entrada Avenue from El Camino Real to Lewis Avenue
Traffic Way from El Camino Real to Lewis Avenue
Palma Avenue from Traffic Way to East Mall
The Hot El Camino Cruise Nite event attracts tourists and spectators who line
El Camino Real to view the vehicles that participate in this growing event.
The following evening, “Dancing in the Streets,” a popular event that debuted in 2016,
will have street closures that will only impact the downtown area from West Mall to
Traffic Way. “Dancing in the Streets” is planned for Saturday, August 1 5, 2020 from
5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. A resolution is not needed for this event since Caltrans highway
operations are unaffected by the event.
Colony Days Parade: Saturday, October 3, 2020 (event 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.)
The Colony Days Parade route will begin on El Camino Real near Pueblo Avenue and
travel northbound on El Camino Real, then turn east on West Mall ending at Lewis
Avenue near City Hall. Required road closures are very similar to Hot El Camino Cruise
Nite except Lewis Avenue (between Entrada Avenue and East Mall) and West Mall
(between Lewis Avenue and Olmeda Avenue ) will also be closed, while Traffic Way,
Entrada Avenue, and Palma Avenue (between Traffic Way and Entrada Avenue ), will
remain open.
Road closures for the Colony Days Parade occurs in two stages. The first stage occurs
at 8:00 a.m. and is a “soft” closure that closes a portion of the parade route to allow
floats and other participants to set up. The second stage occurs at 9:30 a.m. and is a
“hard” closure that prohibits all unauthorized vehicles from driving through the parade
route or any closed road.
A detail of each of the road closures is included in the Draft Resolutions (Attachments 1
& 2) and on the proposed route for Hot El Camino Cruise Nite and Colony Days
(Attachment 3).
FISCAL IMPACT:
Cruise Nite incurs no net fiscal impact. The cost of putting the event on is
approximately $15,000 in budgeted funds. It is anticipated that these costs will be fully
recovered through budgeted sponsorships and entry fees.
The Colony Days closure of the parade route is expected to take over 100 hours of
budgeted staff time for road closure applications, set -up and manning the road closure.
Colony Days is a non-profit event co-sponsored by the City.

Staff Report - Public Works Department
Adopting a List of Projects for Fiscal Year 2020-2021
Funded by SB1: The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017
RECOMMENDATION:
Council adopt Draft Resolution adopting a list of projects to be funded with Road
Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account revenues from SB 1 (The Road Repair and
Accountability Act of 2017) for Fiscal Year 2020-2021.
DISCUSSION:
Background
The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (SB 1) provides new
funding for local and state jurisdictions to address roadway
maintenance and rehabilitation needs, as well as other transportation
related projects. This act became law in April 2017 and annual
reporting guidelines for local agencies (cities and counties) were
finalized in August 2017. These guidelines describe annual reporting
requirements and processes for local agencies receiving SB 1
revenues, which primarily involves having local agencies identify a list of projects to be
funded with SB 1 revenues each fiscal year and reporting expenditures for those projects.
Analysis
SB 1 was designed intentionally to provide the most flexibility to local agencies as to how
to use these funds, but with a “fix it first” approach to roadway improvements. Annual
funds can be used on multiple projects or a single project can be funded with multiple
annual revenue allocations. “Betterment” improvement projects can be funded with SB 1
funds but require local agency’s roadway systems to have a comprehensive Pavement
Condition Index (PCI) of 80 or higher – Atascadero’s last comprehensive PCI was 50
(2019).
In general, staff recommends directing SB 1 revenues to fund roadway repairs,
maintenance, and rehabilitation on arterial and collector functional classification
roadways. These roadways receive the heaviest use in town and are driven by most of
the public compared to residential functional classification roadways. Furthermore,
Measure F14 funds have been used exclusively on collectors and residential roadways.
Arterials and collectors are typically more expensive to repair, support commerce and
Page 29 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: A-4
DATE: 04/28/20
business activities, have enhanced improvements (sidewalks, bike lanes, etc.), and have
higher risk for liability if fallen into disrepair. Staff believes committing additional funding
to arterials and collectors will allow the City to continue to improve the busiest and most
visible roads in Atascadero.
SB 1 guidelines require local agencies to pass a resolution each year that identifies a list
of projects for SB 1 funding. The following table summarizes the SB 1 projected and
estimated revenues FY17/18 through FY 20/21. These amounts have not been adjusted
due to COVID-19 impacts, so actual revenue will likely be lower than projected and
estimated for FY19/20 and FY 20/21. For reporting purposes, the City needs to allocate
the projected amount to a specific project or projects, which will be adjusted at the end of
the fiscal year reporting period.
The City Council used the combined partial first year (FY17/18), full second year
(FY18/19), and a portion of the third year (FY19/20) revenues toward the El Camino Real
(North) Pavement Rehabilitation project from San Anselmo Road (East) to San Benito
Road. That project was completed in fall 2018. The remaining third year (FY19/20)
revenue was allocated to the El Camino Real (South) Pavement Resurfacing project
scheduled for construction in 2021. The adopted Budget includes SB 1 funding for both
these projects.
In accordance with the City’s 5-Year Capital Improvement Program and the 2019 -2021
Budget, it is recommended that Council allocate the FY20/21 SB 1 funds to the El Camino
Real (South) Pavement Resurfacing project. This project involves pavement
maintenance and repairs for 1.90 miles of El Camino Real between the south City limits
and El Bordo Avenue. This section of El Camino Real was partially reconstructed as part
of the Southern California Gas Company’s transmission pipeline project in 2015-2016 and
begins where the Gas Company’s microsurfacing restoration ended (El Bordo Avenue).
New pavement markings will be installed and will improve lan e identification and overall
aesthetics. This project is currently estimated to cost $1,250,000 and is scheduled for
construction funding in FY20/21.Current funding is comprised of $1,045,310 in SB 1
funding and $204,690 in Local Transportation Funds . If actual SB 1 funding is less than
projected and there is not a balance of $1,045,310 in SB 1 monies at the end of FY20/21,
a portion of FY 21/22 SB 1 funds will be allocated to cover any funding shortfall for the
project.

ATASCADERO, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING A LIST OF PROJECTS FOR
FISCAL YEAR 2020-2021 FUNDED BY SB 1: THE ROAD REPAIR AND
ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 2017
WHEREAS, Senate Bill 1 (SB 1), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017
(Chapter 5, Statutes of 2017) was passed by the Legislature and signed into law by the Governor
in April 2017 in order to address the significant multi-modal transportation funding shortfalls
statewide; and
WHEREAS, SB 1 includes accountability and transparency provisions that will ensure the
residents of the City are aware of the projects proposed for funding in the community and which
projects have been completed each fiscal year; and
WHEREAS, the City must include a list of all projects proposed to receive funding from
the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA), created by SB 1, in the City budget,
which must include a description and the location of each proposed project, a proposed schedule
for the project’s completion, and the estimated useful life of the improvement; and
WHEREAS, the City will receive an estimated $568,200 of RMRA funding in Fiscal Year
2020-2021 from SB 1; and
WHEREAS, the City has undergone a public process to ensure public input into the
community’s transportation priorities and capital improvement plans; and
WHEREAS, the City used a Pavement Management System to assist in the development

roads are in a “fair” condition and the revenue will help increase the overall quality of the road
system over the next decade, with the anticipation of bringing the streets and roads into a “good”
condition; and
WHEREAS, without revenue from SB 1, the City’s streets and roads may continue to
degrade into a condition that would require higher costs and expenses to maintain and repair; and

WHEREAS, cities and counties own and operate more than 81 percent of streets and roads
in California, and from the moment an individual opens the front door to drive to work, bike to
school, or walk to the bus station, they are dependent upon a safe, reliable local transportation
network; and

construction jobs and boosts local economies; and
WHEREAS, the local street and road system is also critical for farm to market needs,
interconnectivity, multimodal needs, and commerce; and
WHEREAS, police, fire, and emergency medical services all need safe reliable roads to
react quickly to emergency calls and a few minutes of delay can be a matter of life and death; and
WHEREAS, maintaining and preserving local streets and the road system will reduce
drive times and traffic congestion, improve bicycle safety, and make the pedestrian experience
safer and more appealing, which leads to reduced vehicle emissions helping the State achieve its
air quality and greenhouse gas emissions reductions goals; and
WHEREAS, restoring roads before they fail reduces construction time, which results in
less air pollution from heavy equipment and less water pollution from site run-off; and
WHEREAS, the overall investment in the local streets, roads, and complete streets
infrastructure, with a focus on basic maintenance and safety, using cutting-edge technology,
materials and practices, will have significant positive co-benefits statewide.

Staff Report - Community Development Department
Resolution of the City Council to Authorize Application for Local
Government Planning Support Grant Program Funds
RECOMMENDATION:
Council approve Draft Resolution authorizing an application for the 2020 Local
Government Planning Support Grant Program / Local Early Action Planning Grants
Program (LEAP) to the California Department of Housing and Community Development.
DISCUSSION:
Over the past decade, the state of California has taken numerous policy and legislative
actions directed at increasing the availability of affordable housing, addressing housing
goals, and ending homelessness in California. In the 2019-20 Budget Act, the state
allocated more than $250 million to California jurisdictions for planning activities that
accelerate housing production and increase capacity for housing . With the budget
allocation, the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) established
the Local Early Action Planning Program (LEAP) with $119,040,000 for cities and
counties throughout the state. The intent of the program is to provide one -time grant
funding to cities and counties to update planning documents and implement housing
production streamlining programs. The program will provide grants through a
non-competitive, over-the-counter process to eligible local governments. The LEAP
Application requires a signed resolution (Attachment 1) from the local jurisdiction’s
governing body, authorizing the submittal of the application to HCD.
Similar to the SB2 Planning Grant Program award that the City received, the LEAP program
funding is focused on preparing local jurisdictions for the 6th Cycle Regional Housing
Needs Allocation (RHNA). However, as the City received SB2 Planning Program funds in
order to update the City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element, the LEAP funding application will be
directed towards implementing other policies identified in the City’s 6th Cycle Housing
Element update that is in progress. It will also assist the City with developing CEQA
streamlining and in updating codes to respond to recent changes in state law.
In order to highlight the differences between each grant the following discussion illustrates
the SB2 grant that was approved by the state in March with the LEAP Grant. The LEAP
Grant application is due in June of this year.

SB2 Grant purpose
The City was awarded a grant for $160,000 in March of this year through SB2. The
primary purpose of this grant was to provide funding for housing related activities. The
City was awarded the grant for the following:
1) 6th Cycle Housing Element Update (approximately $80,000)
The City is utilizing SB 2 funding to update and certify its Housing Element for the sixth
cycle. Implementation of the Housing Element (once adopted) will result in the need
to amend the City’s zoning code and subdivision regulations as suggested below.
2) Zoning Code Update (approximately $20,000)
An update to the Zoning Regulations to bring current zoning code into compliance with
state law. Additionally, the code update would include objective design standards that
incorporate specific design requirements for “by right” development instead of a
conditional use permit process. The City may adopt a set of objective design
standards that create minimum design objectives including architectural design
features, adequate private open space, adequate parking, and re lated features. In
concert with an update to the Subdivision Regulations, these amendments could
reduce staff review time, applicant cost, and provide for smaller housing units on
smaller lots, that can be affordable by design.
3) Subdivision Regulation Update (approximately $25,000)
An update to the Subdivision regulations to bring them into compliance with state Law.
Additionally, changes may include small lot subdivision standards that incorporate
specific site and building development standards (such as parking, height, yard space,
and architecture) in exchange for flexible minimum lot sizes. This would alleviate
multi-family planned developments from going through a rezoning process if the
development meets City required standards. At this time, the minimum lot size for
multi-family development is one half acre. Eliminating that minimum lot size, and
instead establishing a set of quality standards for each small lot subdivision, will save
substantial staff time and applicant costs. This could allow for increased creativity with
site design while increasing ownership opportunities for all income segments of the
community (affordable by design).
4) Inclusionary Housing Ordinance (approximately $35,000)
Immediately following the Housing Element Update, the City will need to update the
City’s Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. The new ordinance should be designed to
implement Housing Element policies and establish affordable housing requirements
for every housing development project with a goal of funding, constructing and
incorporating housing for all income levels whenever possible.
LEAP Grant Intent
The primary purpose of the LEAP grant is to provide funding and technical assistance to
local governments towards planning documents, and process improvements. The primary
goals of the LEAP program, based on statewide goals outlined in the 2019-20 Budget
Act, are to accelerate housing production and facilitate compliance to implement the sixth
cycle of the Regional Housing Need Assessment (RHNA). Eligible grant activities include
Page 36 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: A-5
DATE: 04/28/20
a wide range of planning efforts or specific housing related projects with a significant
community impact. Eligible LEAP program activities include the following:
Rezoning and encouraging development by updating planning documents and
zoning ordinances, such as General Plans, community plans, and specific plans;
Eliminate project specific review through establishment of environmental
standards and thresholds;
Establishing housing incentive zones or other area-based housing incentives
beyond State Density Bonus Law.
Performing infrastructure planning, including for sewers, water systems, transit,
roads, or other public facilities necessary to support new housing;
Planning documents to promote development of publicly-owned land;
Revamping local planning processes to speed up housing production;
Developing or improving an accessory dwelling unit ordinance;
Planning documents for a smaller geography with a significant impact on housing
production, including an overlay district, project level specific plan, or development
standards modifications;
Rezoning and other efforts to comply with Housing Element requirements;
Upzoning or other implementation measures to intensify land use pattern s in
strategic locations, such as close proximity to transit, jobs or other amenities;
Rezoning for multifamily housing in high resource areas;
Preparing and adopting Housing Elements of the General Plan that include an
implementation component to facilitate compliance with the sixth cycle RHNA;
Adopting planning documents to coordinate with sub-allocations under Regional
Early Action Planning Grants (REAP) in a way that aligns with state planning
priorities, housing, transportation equity and climate goals, including hazard
mitigation or climate adaptation;
Zoning for by-right supportive housing.
Zoning incentives for housing for persons with special needs.
Planning documents related to carrying out a local or regional housing trust fund;
Environmental hazard assessments; data collection on permit tracking; feasibility
studies, site analysis, or other background studies that show a nexus to housing.
Other planning documents or process improvements that demonstrate an increase
in housing production or planning; and
Establishing Prohousing Policies.
City Proposed LEAP Grant Activities
At this time, City staff is proposing to utilize this grant opportunity to fund policies identified
in the 6th Cycle Housing Element update that were not accommodated by the SB2 Grant.
Based on community input and analysis in the development of the Housing Element so
far, the housing related policies and activities listed below could be funded under the
LEAP program funding. Remaining SB2 Planning Program funds available after the
adoption of 6th Cycle Housing Element and Inclusionary Housing ordinance may also be
used in the implementation of these policies. The proposed LEAP grant list below may
also be modified or expanded based on Community and City Council input so long as the
goals are consistent with the eligible LEAP activities.
Page 37 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: A-5
DATE: 04/28/20
Mixed-Use development standards (approximately $35,000)
The Housing Accountability Act (SB 167, AB 678, AB 1515 [2017] – GC Section
65589.5) dictates that development projects within commercial zoning districts
that include at least two-thirds of the project as residential floor space, cannot be
denied if all applicable zoning standards are met (residential on second floor or
above, height, parking, landscape coverage, etc.).The City, however, can adopt
development standards for mixed-use projects within commercial zones to ensure
that the design goals and City goals are met for these mixed-use projects. These
standards can also require preservation of f loor space for viable commercial land
uses, while maximizing residential density, requiring specific architectural
standards towards quality and specifying locations where vertical mixed -use
projects are allowed by right, subject to design review.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) streamlining (approximately $55,000)
The City needs to establish local CEQA thresholds in order to streamline the
review process for both residential and commercial development. In 2020, new
CEQA thresholds will need to be identified specific for Atascadero that help us to
maintain streamlined review while accommodating new VMT and GHG standards.
This will help small development projects avoid a lengthy EIR process when they
meet our local thresholds.
Permit Streamlining (approximately $20,000)
The state encourages permit streamlining for projects that include certain levels
of affordable housing. This includes maximum review timeframes for permits and
limitations on triggers for discretionary review processes. Staff will evaluate
opportunities in the zoning code to streamline affordable housing updates
and make the necessary zoning code updates while ensuring adequate
property development standards, adequate infrastructure support, and appropriate
design review.
Pre-Approved Stock plans for Accessory Dwelling Units (approximately $35,000)
The state’s main objective is to increase housing opportunities by making the
process to construct housing as easy as possible with a focus on ensuring
adequate construction of affordable housing units. With this in mind, the City can
support this goal by developing pre-approved stock plans that further implements
streamlined review for small accessory dwelling units. The pre-approved “stock
plan” will save plan review costs for applicants and the City. At the same time, this
allows the City to have several versions of custom stock design plans that are
appropriate for Atascadero. Applicants would be able to choose from a variety of
sizes and design themes appropriate for their setting. This will save both staff time
and applicant cost.
The development and scope of the policies and activities listed above will become clear
as the Housing Element is completed through 2020. The LEAP program funds can be
expended through 2023. The primary end result of the policies listed above will be
updates to Atascadero Municipal Code Title 9 Zoning and Planning and Title 11
Subdivision regulations. These code updates, in addition to development of pre-approved
ADU plans and CEQA thresholds, is anticipated to cost approximately $145,000 to
$150,000. All of these activities could potentially be fully funded by the grant and a
Page 38 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: A-5
DATE: 04/28/20
detailed budget for the LEAP grant will be developed at a later time, as the Housing
Element is finalized. The City Council may provide staff direction on other activities that
could be pursued by the grant such as studies and plans related to a future General Plan
update. The grant application must be submitted by July 1, 2020.
The City of Atascadero is eligible to receive a minimum of $25,000 but will apply for the
maximum of $150,000 of LEAP funds to complete activities identified in the Housing
Element. The grant has no required City match and will be used to complete activities
that will be required as part of an HCD approved Housing Element.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in
this report, because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines
Sec. 15378.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Adoption of the Draft Resolution will allow the City to receive up to $150,000 in LEAP
grant funds for implementation of housing element activities and other housing related
planning activities.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Recommend alternative grant funded activities consistent with LEAP guidelines.
2. Continue the recommendation to a later meeting. This alternative is not
recommended, as the funding will be available as early as this summer, which would
allow City staff to expand work efforts on housing-related programs.

RECOMMENDATION:
Council authorize the applicant to proceed with further analysis towards a development
plan to allow a commercial and residential development on existing vacant rural
residential properties at the corner of Del Rio Road and San Ramon Road and provide
direction to staff and the applicant on moving forward with application processing
subject to continued refinement.
REPORT-IN-BRIEF:
A request has been submitted for a General Plan Amendment on six parcels totaling
almost 18 acres at the corner of Del Rio Road and San Ramon Road, and bordering
Highway 101. The parcels are currently zoned Residential Suburban, which allows for
large-lot single-family development with a minimum lot size ranging from 2.5 acres to 10
acres. The proposed development concept includes a combination of visitor serving
commercial, lodging and attached townhomes, along with apartments. At this time, the
plan is conceptual and the applicant team is seeking authorization to proceed with a
complete application. The project details can be modified in response to input received
from the community and the City Council prior to receipt of a formal application. An
additional project review/check-in will occur at a later date if the applicant is authorized
to proceed. Council authorization to accept and process the application is required prior
to staff work on any General Plan amendments.

DISCUSSION:
Background
The City has received a request for a development project at the corner of Del Rio Rd
and San Ramon Rd and along the Highway 101 frontage. The project would require a
General plan Amendment as well as a Zone Map Change, modifications to the Urban
Services Line boundary, a subdivision map, and a Specific Plan along with an
environmental review document. The General Plan currently identifies a maximum of 6
single-family dwellings for the project site. The applicant is proposing a conceptual p lan
with 52 townhomes, 80 apartments, 60,000 square-feet of retail/light industrial space
within multiple buildings, and a 120-room hotel with 16 detached short-term rental units.
Should the project move forward, staff is recommending that the Del Rio Specific Plan
be amended to include this project since interchange improvements and traffic impacts
overlap. As an alternative, the project can pursue an independent Specific Plan. The
applicant team is seeking both community and Council input prior to refinin g
development plans.

of the applicant’s vision for the commercial use of the site as an experiential destination.
An experiential commercial use is generally defined as a location with a series of
different commercial uses that combine both entertainment, hospitality, food and
beverages and can also act as a distribution center or manufacturing center. This type
of land use has become a trend in recent years as the internet shopping experience has
dominated the retail market. Typical land uses in an experiential center might include
breweries, wineries, coffee roasters, bakeries, ice cream and restaurants along with
lodging uses and entertainment venues. Other retail and professional uses could be a
good fit these locations as well.
Project Considerations
Although staff is unable to complete a comprehensive review of this project until we are
authorized to proceed, staff has performed a preliminary review and developed the
following discussion topics. Additional information from the applicant team along with
City Council input will be needed before a complete an alysis can be performed.
1. Land Use Plan and Zoning
The General Plan requires that a project of this scale (100 or more residential
units) be planned as a specific plan. In this case, we have the opportunity to
incorporate it into the Del Rio Specific Plan or create its own specific plan. The
Specific Plan will allow the applicant and City to create custom zoning specific to
the project. It can include specific residential and commercial density, a refined
list of land uses, and specific timing of when each land use can develop,
contingent upon completion of improvements or occupancy of each land use. For
example, the plan could require that the commercial components develop first
while allowing some residential to develop with each phase.
The applicant is proposing a mix of residential, commercial, and tourist serving
uses focusing on place making or “experiential” uses. Approximately 8 acres of
the site will be devoted to residential uses with approximately 9.5 acres devoted
to commercial uses. As discussed above, a lot of attention to timing, zoning, and
specific plan policies will provide guidance to the mix of uses while ensuring that
a commercial project anchors the development plan.
The current concept plan proposes an overall residential density bet ween the
City’s medium and high density residential zoning districts. During the preliminary
submittal process, discussions with staff have focused on the balance of density
vs. design. While density can be an indicator of neighborhood compatibility,
design is the key factor that determines whether a project is compatible with the
surrounding neighborhood. In many ways, if the design incorporates appropriate
massing, scale, and site planning, higher density projects can have the
appearance of lower density neighborhoods. Consideration and direction should
focus on massing and neighborhood design features.
There are options available as to how to guide future development on this site
regardless of future ownership. Both the General Plan and the Specific Plan
process can help guarantee future land use and a change to either one of these
components would require City Council action should the project request a
change following future approval.
Page 45 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/28/20
Option #1 would be to amend the General Plan to designate specific
commercial and residential locations on the site and adopt a Specific Plan
to implement General Plan designations. Adoption of a Specific Plan to
implement the zoning on the site can provide very specific direction to
density, land use, timing and infrastructure improvements with each
phase. This would be a method of ensuring that commercial development
takes place first and that areas designated as commercial are not left
vacant or later converted to residential. Under this option, one would need
to amend the General Plan and Specific Plan in order to deviate from the
land use plan and its specific timing mechanisms. The image below
illustrates a conceptual location of the boundary between commercial and
residential designations.
Option #2 would be to designate the entire site as a Commercial site on
the General Plan map, while using a Specific Plan to refine where ground
floor residential uses may be placed on the site and specifying timing and
improvement mechanisms. Under this option, the City could place the
same assurances regarding prioritization of commercial development.
However, under this option, the General Plan may not need to be
amended should the commercial uses overlap the residential location or if
residential on the ground floor was contemplated on the commercial site.
One would only need to amend the Specific Plan in those circumstances.
Amending either the Specific Plan or General Plan in either scenario
would be a City Council action. It would be logical to include this site into
the Del Rio plan as it shares some of the same traffic, drainage , and visual
characteristics.

ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/28/20
2. Neighborhood compatibility
a. Residential Density and Design
The townhome portion of the development at the outer edge of the site is
proposed at approximately 13 dwelling units per acre (du/ac), just above the
City’s medium density residential zoning district, which is currently 10 units per
acre. The apartment portion of the project is designed at 20 du/ac, consistent
with the City’s high-density residential zoning district. Overall, residential density
is 17 units per acre when averaged over the residential portion of the site. As a
comparison, the surrounding existing residential density ranges from 1 unit per
acre at Apple Valley (Apple Valley includes park areas and streets) to 1 unit per
2.5 acres and up along San Ramon Road.
While density can be an indication of neighborhood compatibility, design is also
key to ensuring integration and transition from the existing neighborhood,
regardless of density. There are a number of neighborhood design options for the
site that can be explored: traditional neighborhood design with smaller units and
detached garages with potential to incorporate accessory dwelling units, attached
townhomes, courtyard style homes, or a combination of multiple styles within an
integrated neighborhood.
The Council may wish to provide some guidance on the following:
Housing Units on Del Rio:
The current design illustrates some of the residential units facing exterior
streets such as Del Rio and San Ramon instead of orienting units to interior
streets in the fashion that Apple Valley is developed. There are pros and cons
to both project designs. When development is oriented to the main street, it
improves the visual character of the site and tends to enhance community
interaction. However, it may reduce quality of exterior space for the residents
who live in the units and expose units to traffic noise. On the other hand, a
development that utilizes walls to separate back yards from the main street, is
less aesthetically pleasing as viewed from the main road, but may increase
quality of yard space for residents. Most design professionals and urban
planners would encourage a building design that is oriented towards the main
street because of the tendency to enhance neighborhood interaction while
reducing traffic speed and enhancing overall project appearance.
Garages:
Another design topic includes whether each unit should have dedicated
parking on site or whether parking should be grouped in small dispersed
parking areas. Individual garages for the Townhome portion of the site
would be a significant quality feature. However, recent state law has
streamlined the production of second units and has allowed owners of
townhomes or condominiums to convert their private garage spaces into
second units without requiring that replacement parking be provided on site.
This can occur within up to 25% of all units within a townhouse or
condominium project. Therefore, this factor should be taken into
consideration when considering parking design as the City may not have the
Page 47 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/28/20
ability to prohibit a portion of the enclosed garages being converted to
second units in the future. On the other hand, exposed parking areas may
reduce the overall quality of the appearance while reducing options for
storage areas that may be integrated into garages.
Trash and Recycling:
Although we don’t have sufficient detail at this time, collection of waste is
always a topic that needs to be addressed early as it has implication s to the
overall design. Medium density housing often comes with individual trash,
green waste and recycling bins, which result in the need for 3-bins per
residence, and require that space for on -street pickup be provided. Most
high density housing is accommodated through the use of trash enclosures
with large waste bins. The commercial project will likely be accommodated
by large trash and recycling enclosures. Trash enclosures need to be
accessible to large trucks, have sufficient back-up space and need close
access to both residents and commercial tenants. In this project both
options may work, however the applicant team needs to start planning for
this early and feedback should be given as to the appropriate preferred
accommodation of this necessity.
b. Building Height / Scale
Townhome Residential
The attached “duplex” units along Del Rio are designed at two stories with
similar first floor footprint to surrounding single -family homes. More
variation of height in this area as a transition from the existing single-family
neighborhood could assist with compatibility. This transition in mass and
scale is likely more important along San Ramon Road than it is along Del
Rio Road as Del Rio is designed as a collector street and only the rear
yards of Apple Valley units are adjacent to the street.
Page 48 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/28/20
Apartments
Residential apartments towards the interior of the site are designed at 2.5
stories (2 stories + loft and attic spaces). Additional articulation and height
variation may be necessary in order to create sufficient quality design and
neighborhood compatibility, however design themes appear suitable.
Hotel
The four-story hotel is setback from adjacent residential to the north with
parking, access, and landscaping. There will need to be focused
consideration on the interface between the proposed hotel site and the
existing adjacent single-family property. The adjacent SFR property to the
north will remain within the more rural zoning district into the future as
sewer is unlikely to extend further northward and the property is outside of
the urban services line. We will need to consider ensure adequate sound,
lighting, and visual screening and/or reduce the scale of the hotel or step
upper stories back to provide greater compatibility. At this time, we do not
have any images of the proposed hotel, nor does the applicant have a hotel
operator on board.
c. Building Design Themes
The project concept consists of
an agrarian design for
commercial spaces, with
residential architecture
reflecting local design themes.
Atascadero is known for its
custom housing design. There
are very few neighborhoods in
Atascadero that utilize the
repetitive design themes that
are common to tract homes in
Page 49 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/28/20
other communities. Instead, our community takes pride in a wide variety of
custom house designs. The rural location and highly visible characteristics from
highway 101 and Del Rio Road means that the design theme is extremely
important. Furthermore, maintaining neighborhood compatibility with west
Atascadero is crucial to this project’s success. The applicant has done a good
job in designing the commercial spaces with a rural feel and the use of rustic,
barn like features for the commercial buildings. At this time, there is insufficient
information to determine the true design qualities of the project, as we do not
have a complete set of elevations. Based on an initial look at the residential
designs, they appear to have decent quality but may need additional styles and
colors in order to give a sense of variety that is found in nearby neighborhoods.
The City Council may wish to provide some direction towards design if the
Council chooses to authorize the project. Additionally, the Council should direct
the applicant to return with draft architectural p lans prior to proceeding with the
General Plan Amendment process. This can be done with a check in, or
progress update.
3. Fiscal Sustainability/Commercial Viability
The project area is comprised of largely vacant parcels adjacent to Highway 101
and at a key commercial node for the City. The City has long anticipated the
need for this location to transition to a commercial land use. The Del Rio
Commercial Specific plan area is across the freeway and is anticipated to grow
into a jobs and destination center with at least 200,000 square feet of business
park, restaurant spaces and other uses. This site represents an opportunity to
expand the commercial viability and synergy of the key Del Rio node. The
applicant team is contemplating a variety of uses aimed at experienced based
commercial and tourism with support of residential uses for neighborhood
compatibility and fiscal sustainability. Staff has provided initial direction to the
applicant to remove traffic intensive uses such as drive through restaurants and
fuel stations. Instead, the applicant is pursuing a retail and experience based
center along with lodging uses. The proposed land use palette appears to
complement planned uses in the Del Rio Specific Plan.
Including higher density residential in the p roposed project increases the fiscal
viability and sustainability of the project for the applicants, however the higher
density residential could pose a potential neighborhood compatibility issue as
well as potentially exacerbate the jobs housing imbalance. Ensuring viable
commercial land uses with sizes and design themes that support current demand
on this site should be a priority. Zoning policies in the specific plan should
incentivize the commercial development and should focus on commercial uses
that can foster tourism, head of household jobs, and retail sales.
4. Short-term Rental Units
The project is proposing 16 units that appear to be designed as residential
condominiums. They are defined as short-term rental units. In order for these units
to be consistent with the Commercial designation and be designed for transient
occupancy, they would need to be restricted to stays of less than 30 days. It can
be difficult to regulate short term units that have complete kitchens over the long
Page 50 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/28/20
term. The Municipal code allows for a maximum of 10% of hotel units in
commercial hotel projects to have kitchens. Different standards could be adopted
by the specific plan. If these units are intended for transient lodging, a deed
restriction, specific plan policies, and other guarantees will need to be established.
5. Affordable Housing
The City’s current affordable housing policy requires 20% of projects to be
designed as affordable housing. Under current policy, 26 affordable units are
required in this project. Of those units, they would need to be allocated to the
following categories: 5 very-low, 10-low, and 11 moderate-income units. State
Law allows affordable units to be developed in addition to the base density that is
allowed by zoning. Therefore, it is very important that the affordable housing plan
be a part of the Specific Plan for this site so that the development does not
include the bonus units on top of what is approved by any City action . As a
General Plan Amendment, the Council has some flexibility in the interpretation of
the policy and can specify minimum affordable housing requirements and
required locations throughout the site to ensure that affordable units are not
concentrated in one area of the development. The Council may also wish to
eliminate the moderate requirement and instead focus on low and very low units.
It may be possible that smaller multi-family units that are proposed in the project
will already qualify as moderate as they may automatically meet moderate
affordable requirements by design.
6. Traffic and Access
A traffic analysis specific for the project has not been completed at this time.
However, the project was included in the recent traffic sensitivity analysis for the
Del Rio/US 101 interchange and corridor. The traffic sensitivity analysis added
trip generation data from the project with trip generation from other anticipated
development in the vicinity to determine what alternative improvements will be
needed for the interchange and corridor. The project concept plan shows the
main entrance at Del Rio Road with a secondary access point on San Ramon
Road. Two bridges cross the creek, linking the residential and the commercial
portions of the site and creating a loop for traffic flow and emergency access.
The residential portion includes internal streets with parking located in surface
lots lining the internal streets as well as individual garages. Parking for the
commercial portion of the project is located along the access road adjacent to
Highway 101 as well as within a larger parking lot between the short-term stay
units and the experienced based commercial.
Considerations for access and parking include the following:
a. Del Rio Road Access
The main access point and design of the intersection will be addressed through
additional traffic analysis to and from the project to determine traffic impacts to
the adjacent interchange and existing residential streets. The recent traffic
sensitivity analysis indicates the project will contribute to triggering alternative
improvements at the interchange. Furthermore, the traffic sensitivity analysis
suggests limiting the Del Rio Road access to be right in/right out only if the
access is aligned as an intersection with Ramona Road. This access point may
Page 51 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/28/20
need to share a driveway with the approved modula r lodging project at the
northwest corner of Del Rio and the Highway 101 southbound off-ramp, requiring
cooperation between the developers.
During the preliminary review of the project plans, it was noted that a left turn out
of the project site onto Del Rio Road will need to be restricted. This is because of
the limited distance between the proposed driveway acce ss at Del Rio Road and
the Highway 101 ramps, in addition to slope on Del Rio. We also understand that
routing traffic from the site back through residential neighborhoods is not a good
option. Therefore, additional analysis may result in relocation or redesign of the
project entrances to address routing traffic back to US 101 when leaving the
project site. At this time, Council may weigh in on traffic topics that should be
addressed by the applicant team in preparation for a formal application.
b. San Ramon Road Access
This secondary access aligns with the second bridge crossing allowing for
commercial and residential traffic flow. The project will need to be designed to
discourage or preclude significant traffic from travelling north on San Ramon
Road through the residential neighborhood. The volume of traffic using this
access will depend on the design of the Del Rio Road access. The project
specific traffic analysis will provide trip generation for vehicles entering and
exiting both accesses. The environmental analysis for the project will also need
to evaluate neighborhood impacts including safety, traffic and noise. A likely
conclusion will be to design road improvements to preclude an increase in traffic
utilizing San Ramon.
c. Parking
Parking is only illustrated as a concept at this time. Additional details including
landscaping and pedestrian paths will need to be incorporated. At this time, we
can also provide direction on residential parking and whether this parking should
be in garages, carports, or open parking areas.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Based on the project scope, combined with recent changes to State law related to
Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and required air quality analysis for larger-scale
developments, staff anticipates that the project will be subject to an EIR, although no
formal Initial Study has been completed at this time. Key areas of pre-analysis will
include traffic, VMT, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG). Once we have information
related to these impacts, we can better understand the ability of the project to mitigate
any identified impacts. As the City is able to adopt local thresholds, there will be more
opportunities to avoid the EIR process. If the project is able to mitigate all impacts, a
Mitigated Negative Declaration can be prepared instead of an EIR. If the application is
authorized to proceed, staff will work to find the most efficient and streamlined options
for accommodating the project through the appropriate environmental process.

Council Authorization and Processing
Council policy requires Council review and authorization in order for staff to process a
Major General Plan amendment application. Major amendments are those that involve
more than one-half acre of land. In order to allow a major amendment to proceed, a
majority vote by the Council is required. The Council’s policy also includes review
processing options. These options are designed to facilitate citizen participation and can
be performed prior to or following the authorization hearing. The following processing
options are outlined in the Council policy:
A. Neighborhood Meeting. The applicant is required to hold a neighborhood
meeting to present the request to citizens of the area neighborhoods and for the
citizens to identify, list, and discuss issues related to the amendment. The
applicant is responsible for organizing and conducting the meeting and
attempting to resolve as many issues as possible before submitting a formal
application to the City for review and processing. At this time, staff has asked the
applicants to complete a neighborhood meeting. However, they wish to proceed
with Council authorization prior to organizing the meeting.
B. Study Session. Staff presents the basic facts of the amendment application to a
joint City Council/Planning Commission study session, along with General Plan
and environmental analysis. Comments from the Planning Commission and the
public are received by staff for further consideration. The applicant is responsible
for resolving of as many issues as possible before submitting a formal application
to the City.
State law limits the amount of times a General Plan can be amended within a given
year. Atascadero’s General Plan designates a March and September cycle for the
processing of privately sponsored General Plan amendment requests.
Steps for a Complete Application:
If the Council authorizes staff to process the proposed General Plan Amendment, there
are a number of key studies that need to be completed prior to proceeding with a
complete application:
1. A traffic analysis will need to be completed that reviews traffic and queuing
impacts at the Del Rio / 101 interchange in addition to traffic flow in and out of the
site. Staff anticipates that particular attention will need to be focused on the main
project entrance at Del Rio to ensure that impacts to existing and future road
alignments are minimized and that traffic exiting the project can be safely an d
efficiently routed back to the 101 freeway with minimal impacts to existing
residential neighborhoods.
2. A request by the applicant to the City Engineer for a feasibility analysis for sewer
extension and connection to existing facilities. There is currently a lift station at
Apple Valley that may need upgrades to accommodate the proposed
development concept. Updates may also be required to additional downstream
collection system facilities. Early analysis of the sewer collection system is a key
step in determining project feasibility.
3. Preliminary air quality and VMT analysis to better determine the appropriate level
of environmental review. Typically, the higher number of trips generated by the
Page 53 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/28/20
project, the more difficult it is to reduce the air quality im pacts to a less than
significant level.
4. A preliminary grading and drainage plan for the site will help to refine site
planning while better understanding building envelopes.
Conclusion
This location is one of the few remaining vacant locations in the City with a significant
highway frontage, and relatively level land. It is an important location that can help
contribute to both the City’s tax revenue base and provide neighborhood expansion.
Because it requires a General Plan amendment prior to moving for ward with any
significant development, the City Council may consider the following options in
considering whether to authorize staff to proceed with this amendment:
1. Allow staff to take the application in now and process as time allows - comments
may also be placed on the project to modify design or land use.
2. Suggest that staff not take in the application at this time . This option should be
selected if it is found that the proposed project does not meet long-term City
objectives, and that the land use concept is too far from meeting city goals.
Should City Council authorize staff to process this application, the authorization
does not signal support for the project, nor does it guarantee that such a project
would be approved by the Planning Commission or City Council. An authorization
is limited to the determination that the application warrants further review and that the
general project description and scope could have substantial benefit to the Community
at large. The authorization review also allows the City Council and community to offer
feedback and comments towards a future application. The City Council may offer the
applicant team specific direction about what components to include in the future
application and general direction towards the project concept.
Council Feedback
In order to save applicant costs and process time, it is important to have
Councilmembers provide feedback to the applicant at this early point in the process.
This will allow the applicant to understand what types of things the Councilmembers will
want to see addressed in the final application and when considering final approval of the
General Plan Amendment. The City Council should use the following basic discussion
points when providing direction to the applicant and staff:
A. General Plan/Specific Plan:
a. General plan commercial or residential boundary
b. Preferred direction towards specific plan, whether an independent
specific plan or part of the Del Rio plan.
B. Residential design and density:
a. Design feedback for townhomes, apartments and commercial zone
b. Orientation of homes on Del Rio
c. Garage requirement
d. Overall Density
e. Other design and density direction.
Page 54 of 71
ITEM NUMBER: B-1
DATE: 04/28/20
C. Desired type of commercial uses for a highway oriented, visitor -serving
commercial.
D. Affordable housing income levels and how the affordable housing should be
incorporated.
E. Traffic and access
F. Community process for review of the General Plan Application
G. Other Items of Council concern that the applicant and staff should know about
prior to moving forward with further details and processing of the application.
FISCAL IMPACT:
According to the findings from the Taussig Study, revenue from new residential
development including property tax revenues, vehicle licensing fees, sales taxes, and
other revenues are insufficient to cover the maintenance and emergency service costs
of new development. Based on the revenue projections from the Taussig Study, t he
City has developed standard conditions of approval for new residential development
projects that require the cost of maintenance and emerge ncy services to be funded by
the project through a community facilities district (CFD). City policy requires that all
projects with five or more residential units must annex into the CFD.
Since the project will likely include individual ownership units for both the residential and
commercial portions, a common interest subdivision will be the likely process. Along with
any common interest subdivision, there will be land and improvements that will be owned
in common, therefore requiring an association and CC&R’s to fund and govern the private
on-site, shared amenities such as access roads, landscape, lighting, and others.
Staff Impact
Any development project proposal has an impact on City staff resources. Project
approval would require a General Plan Amendment, an amendment to the urban services
line to include the northern-most parcel, a Specific Plan or annexation into the Del Rio
Specific Plan, a Tentative Subdivision Map, adoption of a Master plan of Development,
and environmental analysis. These combined actions are discretionary actions that
require review by both the Planning Commission and City Council. However, this project
is a significant project that may have community wide benefits and is expected to provide
jobs, sales tax revenue and housing. Typically, with a project of this scale, staff will seek
professional consultant help to assist with application processing and environmental
review. The consultant costs are covered by the project applicant.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Council may authorize staff to process the proposed General Plan Amendment
application, with neighborhood meeting and study session .
2. Council may direct staff to gather additional information on the proposed project and
report to the Council before taking action regarding processing.
3. Council may suggest that the amendment is not appropriate at this time nor in the
immediate future and suggest that staff not consider processing the application.

CITY OF ATASCADERO
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT POLICY
Section 1 — Amendments
The City Council may, from time to time, following review by the Planning Commission,
amend, supplement, change, or repeal the text or maps in the City's General Plan. All
amendments shall be reviewed and processed in such a manner as to facilitate citizen
participation. If a proposed amendment is inconsistent with other text/maps in the General
Plan, changes to these other areas must also be proposed. State Law requires a General
Plan to be internally consistent. State Law also limits the number of times that the General
Plan can be amended.
Section 2 —Type of Amendments
Amendments will be reviewed and processed as major or minor amendments, or as
corrections.
A. Major Land Use Map Amendments. An application to amend any land use
designation in excess of one-half acre in the General Plan or any area requiring a
master plan.

major amendments.
C. Text Amendments. An application to amend the text of the general plan. These will
be major amendments.
Section 3 — Processing of General Plan Amendment Submittals
The decision to process an amendment to the general plan may be accomplished by one
of the following methods:
For major amendments, a majority vote of the City Council.
For minor amendments, the Director of Community Development shall process all
completed applications.
A. Pre-application Review Process—All Proposed Amendments
Prior to filing an application for a general plan amendment, the applicant will meet
with the Director of Community Development, or his or her designee, to informally
discuss the proposed amendment.This stage allows the applicant the opportunity to

resolved, establish tentative meeting schedules and simplify the process to reduce
delays.
B. Major Land Use Map Amendments. Applications for major amendments to the
general plan will be accepted by the Director of Community Development. Upon
the initial review of the application, and determination being made by the Director of
Community Development that the general plan amendment is a major amendment,
the Director shall prepare a staff report to the Council within ninety(90)days of the
submittal of the application. The Director of Community Development shall present
the application for the amendment to the General Plan, along with any other
submittal and any conceptual plans submitted therein, for the Council's
consideration. The Council shall give direction to the Director of Community
Development on whether the Council desires that the general plan amendment be
processed. If the Council directs the processing of the general plan amendment,
the Director of Community Development shall determine if the application is
complete. Fully completed applications for major general plan amendments shall
be processed in accordance with state law and this policy, after the applicant has
entered into an advancement of funds and/or reimbursement agreement with the
City to cover all costs associated with processing the application.
If the Council directs the Director of Community Development not to process the
application, then the application shall be deemed denied, and no further action shall
r.. be taken by staff on the application.
C. Minor Land Use Map Amendments. Fully completed applications for minor
amendments will be accepted and processed in accordance with this policy, at any
time during the year.

B. Any special general plan policies being proposed by the applicant to perhaps
mitigate impacts on special site features or address concerns of adjacent property
owners.
C. Any information regarding the proposed amendment, such as its effect on special
site features or surrounding areas or other information, the applicant feels is
important when considering the request.
D. Statements reflecting the present conditions justifying the proposed amendment;
statements showing that the parcel fulfills the criteria for establishment of the
proposed district or, in the absence of the ability to comply, statements as to why the
presumption against the amendment should be overcome; and any other factors or
reasons in support of the proposed amendments.
Section 5—General Plan Amendment Review Processing Options
Council may require the following:
A. Neighborhood Meetings. To help facilitate open citizen participation in the review
process of general plan amendments, the applicant may be required to hold a
aw neighborhood meeting. The purpose of the meeting for the neighborhood potentially
impacted by the proposed amendment is for the general plan amendment to be
presented to citizens of the area neighborhoods and for the citizens to identify, list,
and discuss issues related to the amendment. Working with the applicant, the
citizens can seek solutions for the issues they identify. Neighborhood meetings are
to be held subsequent to the pre-application meeting and prior to submittal of the
application so the citizens can express their views before time and effort have been
expended by the applicant on the formal submittal. At the neighborhood meeting
stage, the applicant should attempt to resolve as many issues as possible before
submitting the formal application.
The applicant is responsible for organizing, scheduling, and supplying all materials
for the neighborhood meeting. The applicant will provide to the City information on
the meeting date, time, location, and purpose of the meeting at least 15 days prior to
the meeting. The applicant shall notify all property owners and residents within 500
feet of the exterior boundaries of the project and all homeowner associations within
1,000 feet of the project. A written summary of the meeting shall be prepared by the
applicant and submitted with the application.
B. Study Session. The study session is an informative meeting where staff presents the
basic facts of the amendment request to the commission. At this time, staff does
not make approval or denial recommendations but may recommend expansion of

notification areas. Staff may also introduce other relevant information to the
commission such as: consistency with general plan policy objectives and existing
general plan policies; potential impacts on floodplain, steep slopes, and wildlife
habitat; transportation and wastewater treatment facilities; existing neighborhoods
and development; build-out potential and urban form; accessibility to activity centers
and emergency services; and cumulative impacts of proposed amendments.
Section 6—Severability
This policy is consistent with and supplements the amendment process set forth in General
Plan p. II-51 et. seq. In the event that any terms in this Policy are not consistent with the
City's General Plan, the policies and goals of the General Plan control. In the event that
any section or term of this Policy is held invalid or unconstitutional by a California or
Federal Court of competent jurisdiction, such portions shall be deemed separate, distinct
and independent provisions, and the invalidity of such provisions shall not affect the validity
of the remaining portions thereof.
