audience, stating she is assuming her new responsibilities this week as the Planning Director of
the City of Arroyo Grande. Ms. Liberto- Blanck stated she is looking forward to working with
the Planning Commission and the citizens of Arroyo Grande. Chairman Carr welcomed Ms.

CONTINUATION (PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED) - GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT (GPA 87 -1)
- PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE LAND USE ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN FROM
MEDIUM HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO HEAVY COMMERCIAL/LIGHT INDUSTRIAL,
201 BRISCO ROAD. (RICHARD AND NADINE RAY).
Interim Planning Director Rogoway reviewed that the request is to amend the General
Plan from Medium High Density Residential land use to Heavy Commercial/ Light Industrial land
use. He advised that the matter was heard by the Planning Commission at their meeting of
September 15, 1987, however no action was taken because of a lack of four affirmative votes of
the Ccmnission. Mr. Rogoway described the land uses surrounding the subject property. He
noted that the configuration of the subject property seems to indicate that the amendment
designating the property for manufacturing uses would be compatible with the adjacent uses to
the east. From the Ray's property to the southwest, all of the lots are developed along Brisco
Road with residential uses and, therefore, the Ray's property forms a departure point for the
change of the General Plan classification. Mr. Rogoway stated it is the staff's reconmmendation
to amend the General Plan as requested. However, staff first recommends that the Commission
consider acceptance of the Negative Declaration and then act on the General Plan amendment.
Chairman Carr re- opened the public hearing on General Plan Amendment No. 87 -1.
Jane Schilling, 185 Brisco Road, presented a list of signatures of property owners in
the area that object to the change to Heavy Commercial/Light IndustriaL She stated they did
not object to what they are doing there now, however they do not want any heavy commercial
use any closer to their homes.
Steve Cool, Attorney, 1577 El Camino Real, representing the applicants, spoke in favor
of the General Plan amendment. He briefly reviewed the history of the property, noting that
the property has basically always been used for commercial purposes. When the property was
annexed to the City in 1981 the land use and zoning was changed to the current designations.
What the applicants are requesting tonight is to establish a zoning and General Plan designation
which seems to be more appropriate with the use on the property at this time. Mr. Cool
distributed a list of the different uses of property on Brisco Road. He pointed out that there
are 146 living or commercial units along that stretch, and the property we are talking about now
basically is one lot and one business with a caretaker's unit on it. He commented that his
clients have a right to continue using this property as they have been for many years.
Hearing no further continents for or against the proposed amendment, Chairman Carr
declared the hearing closed.
Commissioner Boggess stated he is concerned about allowing the heavier zoning on the
property because of the possibility of the owners selling it and putting a heavier use on the
property. Commissioner Soto questioned the auto body business on the property. Commissioner
Flores suggested accomplishing this zoning change and at the same time, satisfy the City's needs
through a requirement for a use permit. Conmiissioner Moore stated his concerns regarding
traffic and his opinion that this is one of the most dangerous streets in the City. He stated
any commercial use in there is going to bring in commercial vehicles and trucks. Commissioners
Boggess and Soto agreed that if the property is sold, a new use could result in more traffic.
After further discussion the following action was taken:
Arroyo Grande Planning Omission, 10 -20-87 Page 2
RESOLUTION NO. 87 -1132
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE RECOMMENDING APPROVAL
OF THE LAND USE ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN
FROM MEDIUM HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO HEAVY
COMMERCIAL/LIGHT INDUSTRIAL.
On motion by Commissioner Soto, seconded by Commissioner Flores, and by the following
roll call vote, to wit:
AYES: Commissioners Flores, Soto and Chairman Carr
NOES: Commissioners Moore and Boggess
ABSENT: Commissioners Olsen and Gerrish
the foregoing resolution was defeated this 20th day of October due to the lack of four
affirmative votes.
Chairman Carr advised that the failure to achieve four affirmative votes constitutes no
action by the Commission.
Steve Cool, representing Mr. and Mrs. Ray, stated that his clients originally were
asking for the Highway Service designation on the property, and they would be agreeable to the
Commission considering Highway Service rather than the Heavy Carmercial/Light Industrial if
the Commission would feel more comfortable with the uses under that designation. Mr. Rogoway
pointed that out that the Highway Service designation may present a problem relative to spot
zoning.
Chairman Carr commented that the Highway Service or C -3 zone would require a
different General Plan Use designation, and he personally would have a real problem approving
that land use change. He advised that the proposed amendment will go to the City Council in
three weeks.
PUBLIC HEARING - REZONING CASE 87- 200,, PROPOSED ZONE CHANGE FROM "R -3"
MULTIPLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT TO "P-M" PLANNED INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT,
201 BRISOO ROAD. (RICHARD AND NADINE RAY).
Chairman Carr advised that because no action was taken by the Planning Commission on
the General Plan Amendment previously discussed, action on the Rezoning would have to be
continued pending the Council's decision on the application. On motion by Commissioner Flores,
seconded by Commissioner Soto, and unanimously carried, Rezoning Case No. 87 -200 was
continued to November 17, 1987.
PUBLIC HEARING - LOT SPLIT CASE NO. 87 -447, 405 AND 407 TRAFFIC WAY. (JERRY
AND JEAN BOWSER).
PUBLIC HEARING - USE PERMIT CASE NO. 87 -428, TO ALLOW FOR A PLANNED UNIT
DEVELOPMENT IN THE "C-3" HIGHWAY SERVICE DIS'T'RICT, 405 AND 407 TRAFFIC
WAY. (JERRY AND JEAN BOWSER).
Planning Director Rogoway advised that this application has been before the
Commission before. He reviewed that the Use Permit application is for a condominium. The
accompanying lot split proposes to divide the property into three parcels for purposes of selling
one of the two buildings existing on the property, and the third parcel would be common open
space. Mr. Rogoway advised that this matter went to the City Council with a negative
recommendation from the Planning Commission because, (1) the ordinance did not permit this kind
of lot split. Also, there was a question about the driveway being too narrow, and other
concerns that caused the Planning Commission to indicate to the Council that it was not
acceptable. He stated that the City Council felt that the lot split would be acceptable through
the Conditional Use Permit process. Mr. Rogoway further stated it is staff's feeling that there
are no environmental effects caused by this action and recommends that a negative declaration
be issued.
Upon being assured by the Planning Commission Secretary that public hearing for Lot
Split Case No. 87 -447 and Use Permit Case No. 87 -428 had been duly published and property
owners notified, Chairman Carr declared the hearing closed.
Jerry Bowser, 510 Woodland Drive, applicant, spoke in favor of the lot split and use
permit. He stated he has no problem with the conditions set forth in the staff report.
Marie Cattoir, 195 Orchid Lane, questioned whether or not approving this lot split
application would be setting a precedent and opening the door for commercial developments,
such as Oak Park Acres, to request to sell off individual stores? Mr. Rogoway commented that
there is nothing now that would prevent shopping centers from subdividing.
Hearing no further comments for or against the proposed Lot Split, Chairman Carr
declared the hearing closed.

Commissioner Soto referred to the - Resolution adopted by the City Council determining
that a Planned Unit Development is similar to other uses in the "C -3" Highway Service District.
Commissioner Moore corrected an error in the staff report relative to the size of the
parcel, from 7,665 sq. ft. to 11,070 feet.
After a brief discussion, on motion by Commissioner Soto, seconded by Commissioner
Flores, and carried with one "no" vote, Lot Split Case No. 87 -447 was approved, with the
finding that a Negative Declaration of Environmental Impact is appropriate for this application.
Upon being assured by the Planning Commission Secretary that public hearing for Use
Permit Case No. 87 -428 had been duly published and property owners notified, Chairman Carr
declared the hearing open.
Hearing no comments for or against the proposed Use Permit, Chairman Carr declared
the hearing closed, and the following action was taken:
RESOLUTION NO. 87 -1133
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE, APPROVING
USE PERMIT CASE NO. 87 -428, AT 405 AND
407 TRAFFIC WAY.
On motion by Commissioner Soto, seconded by Commissioner Flores, and by the following
roll call vote, to wit:
AYES: Commissioners Flores, Boggess, Soto and Chairman Carr
NOES: C,onimissioner Moore
ABSENT: Commissioners Olsen and Gerrish
the foregoing Resolution was adopted this 20th day of October 1987.
PUBLIC HEARING - VARIANCE CASE NO. 87 -107, REQUEST TO ALLOW LESS THAN 80
FT. FRONTAGE ON LOTS WITH 7% TO 20% CROSS SLOPES (SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE
SECTION 9- 3-403, 511 PLATINO LANE. (K. J. AND L. M. OSTAPOWIEZ).
Interim Planning Director Rogoway advised that the applicants have applied for a
Variance to permit a lot less than 80 ft. frontage on lots between 7% and 20% cross slopes, and
a parcel map to divide their property. into two lots in a Single Family Residential District. He
noted that the parcel is 20,669 sq. ft., which is 147 ft. wide on the rear property line, and
averages 141 ft. in depth. Mr. Rogoway explained that there is -one single family house existing
on the property, and the applicants plan to divide the property into two parcels. The remaining
vacant property would be eligible for sale, but 'the 'width is 67.02 ft. wide at the rear property
line.
Mr. Rogoway pointed out that Platino Lane is not a public street at this time. The
right of way comprises two driveways, each 30 ft. in width. The driveway areas have been
dedicated to the City for public street purposes and, therefore, in order for the street to be
brought to standard, it must be improved to specification.
Mr. Rogoway stated he had talked to the City Attorney about this request and he
wanted to make sure that the Planning Commission makes the proper findings on this variance
request. He advised that State law and. the City Ordinance requires a finding be made that
there are special circumstances existing in the granting of the variance.
Upon being assured by the Planning Commission Secretary that public hearing for
Variance Case No. 87 -107 had been duly published and property owners notified, Chairman Carr
declared the hearing open.
Bill Harvey, 308 Oro Drive, spoke in opposition to the proposed Variance. He stated
when he moved there, one of the things they liked was the large lots in the area. Also, he
stated that, on a property like this with such a steep slope, it would take away his privacy.
Mr. DiCarlo, 515 Platino Lane and Ronald Olsen, 516 Platino Lane, spoke in favor of
the Variance being granted. Mr. Olsen commented when the subdivision was originally put
together, the reason they had to go to the larger lots was because of the water pressure.
Jerry Bowser, representing the applicant, stated that the frontage they are creating is
71 ft. Mr. Bowser pointed out that, as stated by Mr. Olsen, the water pressure problem has
improved since the Wildwood development went in. One of the conditions of approval was to
complete and loop the high pressure water system. He stated the applicants felt that going to
Arroyo Grande Planning Commission, 10 -20-87 Page 4
a smaller size lot would be consistent with the rest of the lots in the area, and the only
problem they had was with the 80 ft. frontage, however, because of the depth of the lot and
with the new improvements on Platino Lane, it was felt that this wouldn't really create a
problem. Mr. Bowser further stated they have no problem with the conditions set forth by staff.
Hearing no further comments for or against the proposed Variance, Chairman Carr
declared the hearing closed.
Mr. Rogoway stated that the applicant feels he is being deprived of certain uses of his
property. Also, he states that there are other lots in the neighborhood that have less than 80
ft. frontages and of the same slope.
Chairman Carr referred to a letter from Mr. Tognazzini, dated October 17, 1987,
stating his objections to the proposed variance and lot split. Commissioner Soto recalled when
the Ron Olson proposal in this area was before the Commission for consideration, some of the
concerns expressed by the residents were traffic, density and drainage. Commissioner Flores
commented, in his opinion, the key to approval or disapproval of this request is if others in this
area have been granted less than 80 ft. frontages and, if so, then a precedent has been set.
After further discussion, Jerry Bowser, representing the applicant, requested a
continuance to enable him to do some research to determine if there are other properties in the
area with slopes and less than 80 ft. frontages. On motion by Commissioner Flores, seconded by
Commissioner Soto, and unanimously carried, granting a continuance of Variance Case No. 87-
107 and Lot Split Case No. 87 -446 to the Planning Commission meeting of November 3, 1987.
PUBLIC HEARING - USE PERMIT CASE NO. 87 -429, ADDITION OF A CHURCH STEEPLE,
IN THE "A" AGRICULTURAL DISTRICT, 497 FAIR OAKS AVENUE. (GOSPEL
LIGHTHOUSE CHURCH).
Mr. Rogoway advised that the Conditional Use Permit application is to construct a
church steeple in excess of 30 ft. The steeple would be constructed similar to a lighthouse and
placed adjacent to the existing sanctuary and recreation addition. The Zoning Ordinance
indicates church steeples may exceed the ordinary height limits (30 ft.) upon securing a
Conditional Use Permit. Mr. Rogoway pointed out that since the steeple is being placed in the
center of the property, it would not adversely affect any neighboring properties and, therefore,
the Staff Advisory Committee did not find reason to condition the proposed steeple.
Upon being assured by the Planning Commission Secretary that public hearing for Use
Permit Case No. 87 -429 had been duly published and property owners notified, Chairman Carr
declared the hearing open.
Reverend Larry Booker, Pastor of the Gospel Lighthouse Church, spoke in favor of the
Use Permit. John Pryor, Architect on the project, reviewed a scale drawing of the proposed
structure. With regard to the proposed flashing light, Chairman Carr suggested that this be
reviewed in 6 months to see if it presents a problem.
Hearing no further comments for or against the proposed use permit, Chairman Carr
declared the hearing closed and, after a brief discussion, the following action was taken, limiting
the height of the addition to 45 ft. not including the cross, and review of the rotating light by
the Planning Commission in 6 months.
RESOLUTION NO. 87 -1134.
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE APPROVING A USE
PERMIT, CASE NO. 87 -429, APPLIED FOR BY
GOSPEL LIGHTHOUSE CHURCH, AT 497 FAIR OAKS
AVENUE.
On motion by Carmissioner Flores, seconded by Commissioner Boggess, and by the
following roll call vote, to wit:
AYES: Commissioners Moore, Flores, Boggess, Soto and Chairman Carr
NOES: None
ABSENT: Commissioners Olsen and Gerrish
the foregoing Resolution was adopted this 20th day of October 1987.
VARIANCE CASE NO. 87 -108, REQUEST FOR VARIANCE FROM ZONING ORDINANCE
SEC. 9 - 4.408, REQUIRING 10 FT. SIDE YARD SETBACK IN THE "A" AGRICULTURAL
DISTRICT, 497 FAIR OAKS AVENUE. (GOSPEL LIGHTHOUSE CHURCH)
Interim Planning Director Rogoway explained that the request is to enclose a covered
patio area and to construct classrooms within 5 ft. of the adjoining property line. The property
is zoned agriculture, and the ordinance requires a 10 ft. side yard setback for new structures.
Mr. Rogoway advised that with a Variance application, it is necessary for the applicants to
justify the variance, stating the reasons why they cannot comply with the standard requirements
of the ordinance.
377
378
Arroyo Grande Planning Clâ–ºmissic n, 11 -20-87 Page 5
In response, the administrators of the church indicate the 10 ft. requirement is
associated with the Agricultural zone and it is their intent to request a rezoning on the
property into a district with normal standards of 5 ft. sideyard setback. Mr. Rogoway noted,
however, that the rezoning request has not yet been made, nor have hearings been held which
would indicate whether or not the City would be agreeable to the change of zone.
Mr. Rogoway advised that the Staff Advisory Connnittee felt the reasons justifying the
Variance do not speak to the basic issue of hardship. If the Variance is approved, the Staff
Advisory Committee recommends the following condition:
1. That the church install an on -site fire hydrant in the location specified by the
Fire Chief.
2. That the new additions to the church be indicated on the property master plan on
file with the Planning Department prior to the issuance of a building permit.
3. That the church obtain from the Catholic Church a temporary easement 5 ft. in
width the length of the new construction which prevents the Catholic Church from
constructing a structure within the easement area. Said easement to be removed
and property setbacks restored to the Catholic Church at the time the Gospel
Lighthouse Church property is rezoned requiring a 5 ft. side yard setback.
Upon being assured by the Planning Commission Secretary that public hearing for
Variance Case No. 87 -108 had been duly published and property owners notified, Chairman Carr
declared the hearing open.
Reverend Larry Booker, Pastor of the = Gospel lighthouse Church, spoke in favor of the
Variance being granted. He briefly described the patio, stating it was' built with a permit, and
they now have the need for additional classrooms and would like to enclose the patio area for
this purpose.
Hearing no further corrrnents for or against the proposed Variance, Chairman Carr
declared the hearing closed.
Chairman Carr noted that if a rezoning is approved, then the Variance would only be
temporary, however, there is no guarantee that the rezoning will be approved, and to approve a
variance based on a possible rezoning is difficult for him. Commissioner Flores stated he
doesn't feel the Commission has a solid basis for approving a Variance.
After further discussion, the following action was taken:
RESOLUTION NO. 87 -1135.
A RESOLUTION- OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE DENYING A VARIANCE, CASE
NO. 87 -108, APPLIED FOR BY GOSPEL LIGHTHOUSE
CHURCH, 497 FAIR OAKS AVENUE.
On motion by Commissioner Flores, seconded by Commissioner Soto, and by the following
roll call vote, to wit:
AYES: Commissioners Moore, Flores, Boggess, Soto and Chairman Carr
NOES: None
ABSENT: Commissioners Olsen and Gerrish
the foregoing Resolution was adopted this 20th day of October 1987.
ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW CASE NO. 87 -384, GUIDETTI SQUARE RETAIL CENTER, WEST
BRANCH STREET AND WESLEY AVENUE IN THE CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT. (J.
AND J. GUIDE'I'TI/RICHMOND, ROSSI AND MONTGOMERY).
Interim Planning Director Rogoway advised that the application before the Corrnnission
involves key property in the downtown area. The application is to construct a retail center on
the corner of Wesley Avenue and West Branch Street. The proposal calls for 30,500 sq. ft. of
building floor area on a 2.54 acre site, and would require 159 off - street parking spaces. The
plan proposes site coverage of 19 %, 54% in parking and paving, and 27% in landscaping and
plaza.
Mr. Rogoway advised that staff has negotiated two studies involving the proposed
solutions to the flow of drainage waters and the handling of traffic generated by the' project.
Consequently a traffic report prepared by Omni -Means Engineers discusses in length how the
project can be accommodated on the site so that traffic generated by the project is properly
handled within the street system.
Arroyo Grande Planning Camrission, 10 -20-87 Page 6
A drainage study was submitted by Westland Engineering showing several alternative
proposals which would detain water flow into the piping system leading to Arroyo Grande Creek.
Because drainage pipes were not adequate to handle increased run -off, the drainage engineer
proposed to negotiate a right of use of the Methodist Campground directly behind the Guidetti
property. A drainage basin which would retain a sufficient amount of drainage water to allow
the flow of water into the Arroyo Grande Creek was proposed by the engineer. The two initial
studies have been reviewed by staff and we find they are acceptable to answer questions about
traffic and drainage at the hearing.
Mr. Rogoway stated that the building is intended to be two stories in height and of
unusual design. The applicant believes the design is in keeping with the character of the
downtown area and the intent of the Village Design Guidelines. The applicant has submitted
samples of the exterior materials and color scheme intended to be used on the exterior of the
building. Colors are earth tones of various hues and produce an unusual and somewhat unique
color scheme and appearance of the building. Exterior materials include stucco siding, canvas
awnings, aluminum windows and store fronts, and metal seam roofing.
Mr. Rogoway pointed out that the project is on the edge of the Central Business
District and it is intended that the Village Guidelines be applied to the development of this
property. The Design Guidelines call for new buildings to be constructed to the edge of the
sidewalk and, in that respect, the guidelines are not being followed.
Mr. Rogoway reviewed the conditions recommended by the Staff Advisory Committee as
outlined in the staff report, dated September 30, 1987.
Keith Gurnee, R.R.M. Design Group, representing the applicant, spoke in favor of
approving the architectural review. He briefly described the proposed project, including the
architecture and color scheme of the buildings. He stated they have met with City staff and
have attempted to design something that would compliment the downtown area. Also, they have
spent a lot of time evaluating the issues of traffic and drainage impacts. He pointed out that
Public Works Director Karp was the one that had to be satisfied with the drainage and traffic
reports, and the applicants agree with his recomnendations.
Jim Silva, 1360 Brighton Avenue, stated he owns three businesses in the Village area
and served on the committee that worked on the design criteria reviewing this project. He
commented that the committee was very much in favor of the project. The committee felt the
project would have a nice relationship to the buildings that are here, plus it would be beneficial
to the Village area.
Commissioner Flores commented that since this is a very large structure, he felt the
feeling of the Village might be lost. He suggested that additional colored renderings be
submitted for the Commission's review.
After a brief discussion, on motion by Commissioner Boggess, seconded by Commissioner
Soto, and unanimously carried, Architectural Review Case No. 87 -384 was continued for two
weeks to enable the applicant to submit architectural renderings to provide the Commission with
a clearer picture.
ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW CASE NO. 87 -395, OAK PARK PROFFSSIONAL CENTER, OAK
PARK BOULEVARD AND JAMES WAY (LOT 5, TRACT 604), IN THE PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT. (K. KENNEDY, R. SHAPEL/WARING GROUP).
Interim Planning Director Rogoway advised that plans are on file from the applicants to
establish a professional center at the corner of James Way and Oak Park Boulevard. He noted
there is a question about whether the health club is a permitted use which falls within the
language of "...uses catering to medical or professional services." He commented that Dr.
Shapel's letter attempts to justify the relationship between the health club and the medical
services, whereas Kevin Kennedy's letter requests the Planning Commission approval for both the
health center and the opening on Oak Park Boulevard providing access for all four lots on the
property.
Mr. Rogoway advised that, after reviewing the master plan, staff felt that the design
of the total project would not work well. They requested the applicant re- design the
development so that circulation on the properties can be handled without the driveway opening
on Oak Park Boulevard. In addition, the Fire Chief has expressed concerns that the parking
layout does not give sufficient turning for fire apparatus. He pointed out that staff held a
meeting with the applicants to suggest various alternatives that could be considered for a
redesigned project, and the applicants intend to do this.
Mr. Rogoway explained that the questions of the Oak Park Boulevard opening and
whether it can be used as an entrance into the project, as well as the interpretation of the
379
380
Arroyo Grande Planning Commission, 10 -20-87 Page 7
ordinance, with respect to the health club, needs to be answered in order for the applicants to
proceed with the project. He commented it is staffs feeling that the Oak Park Boulevard
opening should be closed and the opening on James Way used as the primary source of access.
The easements for access and for utilities need to be worked out by the applicant, which he
intends to do. The Casa Grande Motel uses an easement crossing the property to James Way as
their primary exit.
Mr. Rogoway stated that staff has no objection to interpreting the P -D ordinance of
Oak Park Acres to allow a health club as a use catering to professional services. Therefore, it
is staff's recommendation that the Oak Park Boulevard driveway opening be closed, and the
health club be permitted as a use in ' this project.
Dr. Shapel, one of the applicants, stated they are asking for a determination from the
Planning Commission that a health club is a permissible use on this piece of property and second,
they wish to establish, on the part of the other three owners, whether the entrance off of Oak
Park Boulevard is acceptable.
Commissioner Boggess commented that, in his opinion, the health club use does cater to
professional people. Chairman Carr stated he doesn't see a problem with the health club, or the
entrance from Oak Park .Boulevard as long as it is done to everyone's satisfaction.
Canmissioner Soto stated that the proposal looks feasible.
Michael Morris, attorney representing the property owner of one of the parcels, spoke
regarding the access to Oak Park Boulevard. He suggested getting together with the City of
Pismo Beach to try to solve these problems.
After further discussion, on motion by . Commissioner Soto, seconded by Commissioner
Flores, and unanimously carried, a recommendation was made to the City Council that a health
club and related facilities be considered as an acceptable use on Lot 5 of Oak Park Acres, and
a determination that access to the property from Oak Park Boulevard appears to be feasible
pending study and final agreement with the City of Pismo Beach.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business before the Commission, the meeting was adjourned by
the Chairman at 11 :55 P.M.
