NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City of Arroyo Grande finds, determines, resolves, and recommends: 1. Recitals. All recitals above are true and correct and hereby incorporated by reference. 2. CEQA. The authorization of the Holiday Parade and Jingle Dash and closure of City streets is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") under the Class 4 exemption, which applies to minor public or private alterations in the condition of land, water, and/or vegetation where the project does not involve removal of healthy, mature, scenic trees except for forestry and agricultural purposes. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15304.) The class 4 exemption applies to this project because it involves a minor temporary use of land having negligible or no permanent effects on the environment. 3. Findings.The City Councils makes, after due study and deliberation,the following Temporary Use Permit findings: a. The operation of the requested use at the location proposed and within the time period specified will not jeopardize, endanger, or otherwise constitute a menace to the public RESOLUTION NO. 5334 PAGE 2 health, safety or general welfare. The event subject to this approval has occurred safely for decades, and occurred successfully after being cancelled on one occasion in 2020 due to the Coronavirus pandemic. A 2022 community survey by the Arroyo Grande Recreation Department showed overwhelming support for the event to take place on December 3rd at 5:00 pm. b. The proposed site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the temporary use without material detriment to the use and enjoyment of other properties located adjacent to and in the vicinity of the site. The route has been planned to occur on streets that would avoid detriment to adjacent properties, and nearby property owners have been supportive of the Jingle Bell Dash and Holiday parade since inception, and affected property owners and businesses will be contacted in advance of the event. Signs will be posted at a minimum 72 hours in advance to ensure that property owners are aware that the parade will occur. c. The proposed site is adequately served by streets or highways having sufficient width and improvements to accommodate the kind and quantity of traffic that the temporary use will or could reasonably be expected to generate. The proposed route of the Holiday Parade has been evaluated by city staff as best suited to the Jingle Bell Dash and Holiday Parade. The Jingle Bell Dash involves a road race for community youth, which is best suited to occur on closed city streets. Similarly, the streets proposed for closure are of sufficient size to allow for the Holiday Parade to occur. d. Adequate temporary parking to accommodate vehicular traffic to be generated by the use will be available either on-site or at alternate locations acceptable to the City Council. This use is expected to generate vehicular traffic which will occur outside the parade area, and the City will provide for detours to mitigate traffic impacts to motorists. 4. Approval. The City Council hereby approves Temporary Use Permit 23-012, authorizing the use of City property as presented to the City Council on November 28, 2023, with the above findings and subject to the conditions as set forth in Exhibit "A," and the specific road detours as set forth in Exhibit "B," attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
