CC 2015-02-24_11a Pre Application_E. Cherry_Traffic WayMEMORANDUM TO: CITY COUNCIL FROM: TERESA MCCLISH, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR BY: 1 ~:\t: KELLY HEFFERNON, ASSOCIATE PLANNER SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF PRE-APPLICATION NO. 15-001; SPECIFIC PLAN DESIGNATION, GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT, DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENT, TENTATIVE TRACT MAP AND LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT; LOCATION -TRAFFIC WAY AND EAST CHERRY AVENUE; APPLICANTS -DORFMAN HOMES, INC., MANGANO HOMES, INC., AND ARROYO GRANDE VALLEY JAPANESE WELFARE ASSOCIATION DATE: , FEBRUARY 24, 2015 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended the City Council review the conceptual plans and authorize processing of a General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan for the project. IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES: Financial impact information will be provided when a formal application is submitted. However, it is anticipated that the City will receive additional sales and property tax revenues from the project, and that there will be additional costs associated with City maintenance of new public streets as well, as increased public services for Police and Fire. BACKGROUND: Project Location Item 11.a. - Page 1 CITY COUNCIL PRE 15-001 FEBRUARY 24, 2015 PAGE2 The project site is located on the south side of East Cherry Avenue and east of Traffic Way. The site consists of four parcels totaling approximately 15.2 acres under separate ownership. Surrounding the site is single-family residential development to the north and east, St. Barnabas Church to the south, a mobile home park to the southwest and commercial development across Traffic Way to the west. -Below,is a summary table of the separate specific plan subarea properties as currently configured and identified in the General Plan, Zoning Map and the City's GIS mapping system: Subarea 1 Subarea 2 (two parcels) Subarea 3 Total: Nick Tompkins/ Mangano Homes, Inc. Arroyo Grande Valley Japanese Welfare Assoc. Agriculture (AG)(PD) Mixed Use MU PD Agriculture (AG)(PD) Agriculture (AG) 13.1 1.5 15.2 On July 8, 2014 the City Council considered Pre-Application 14-001 for a preliminary review of a project that will include the properties described in the table above. The applications required for the formal project will include a General Plan Amendment, Development Code Amendment, Tentative Tract Map and Lot Line Adjustment. The conceptual plan included all three subareas for the purpose of coordinating infrastructure needs, but focused on Subarea 2, which included a 59-lot residential subdivision. City Council meeting minutes are included as Attachment 1. On November 25, 2014 the City Council considered Pre-Application 14-005 for a proposed project on Subarea 3 property owned by the Arroyo Grande Japanese Welfare Association (see Attachment 2 for City Council meeting minutes). The project is unchanged from the previous submittal and includes four main garden zones, including: Japanese Cultural Garden; Farm Garden; California Native Garden; and Historic Orchard. There are no conceptual plans for the Subarea 1 property at this time. The applicants held an East Cherry Avenue Neighborhood Meeting on January 31, 2015 at the project site, which was well attended with approximately 50 people in attendance. Issues discussed included: • Adequate Parking • Cherry Avenue street improvements • Bulb outs to help break up visual impacts of parking and slow traffic Item 11.a. - Page 2 CITY COUNCIL PRE 15-001 FEBRUARY 24, 2015 PAGE3 • Visual concerns of the proposed Subarea 2 development • Two-story vs. single-story houses • -Undergrounding of existing overhead utilities • Continuing the widening of Cherry Avenue past the-project area to the east • Drainage concerns • Water supply concerns • Concerns with existing intersection congestion The applicants suggested that the neighbors form a subcommittee of about four (4) people to work with the development team and convey information to the neighborhood. Project Description The applicants have submitted Pre-Application 15-001 to receive Council authorization to process the general plan amendment and specific plan for the project. The project includes three (3) subareas with the following proposed changes to property size, land use designation and zoning designation: 1 Dorfman 2.2 Infrastructure Homes, improvements Inc. only. 2 Mangano 11.7 Fifty (50) lot Homes, residential Inc. subdivision. 3 A.G. Valley 1.5 Cultural Japanese archive, Welfare community Association center, heritage gardens, residential and related structures. Mixed Use No change Agriculture Medium and Mixed Density Use Residential Agriculture Mixed Use Traffic Way Mixed Use (TMU D- 2.11 Agriculture and Traffic Way Mixed Use Agriculture No change Village Residential (VR-SP; D-2.4 Village Mixed Use (VMU) The attached plans provide information from the previous two pre-application submittals for Subareas 2 and 3 (see Attachment 3). Although the plans identify a 58 lot residential subdivision for Subarea 2, the current application provides a total of 50 lots. The elimination of eight (8) lots is largely due to the anticipated widening of East Cherry Avenue to include parking on both sides of the street along the project frontage; the lack of on-street parking has been one of the primary concerns of the surrounding residents. Item 11.a. - Page 3 CITY COUNCIL PRE 15-001 FEBRUARY 24, 2015 PAGE4 ANALYSIS OF ISSUES: General Plan Policies The 2001 General Plan Update changed the land use designation of Subareas 2 and 3 from Agriculture (AG) to Mixed Use with a Planned Development (MU-PD) overlay. Likewise, Subarea 1 was changed from General Commercial (GC) to MU-PD. In September 2003, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 3711 to change the land use designation of Subareas 2 and 3 back to Agriculture and revised the Conservation and Open Space Element to include an implementation policy for mitigation of converted agricultural lands. Specifically, Implementation Policy AG 1-4.2 was amended as follows: "Possible mitigation for Joss of areas having prime farmland soils may include permanent protection of prime farmland soils at a ratio of at least 1 :1 and up to 2:1 with regard to the acreage of land removed from the capability for agricultural use. Permanent protection may involve, but is not limited to, dedication of a perpetual agricultural or conservation easement or other effective mechanism to ensure that the area chosen as mitigation shall not be subject to loss of its prime farmland soils. Suitability of location shall be determined by the City Council. The aim shall be to protect and preserve prime farmland soils primarily within and contiguous to City boundaries, secondly within the Urban Land Use Element area, and thirdly within the larger Arroyo Grande Valley and La Cienega Valley within the Area of Environmental Concern. Other potential mitigation measures for Joss of areas having prime farmland soils include payment of in-lieu fees or such other mitigation acceptable to the City Council." In January 2004, the Zoning Map for Subarea 1 was changed from General Commercial to Traffic Way Mixed Use (TMU) with a D-2.11 Design Overlay. The primary purpose of the D-2.11 Design Overlay is to encourage the use of design that will not detract from the neighboring Village districts and to enhance the character and appearance of this southern commercial gateway to. Arroyo Grande from Highway 101. In January 2014, the permitted uses for specific properties located within the D-2.11 Design Overlay District, including Subarea 1, were modified to be limited to automobile and light truck sales and services, or related automotive parts stores, repair shops, and similar vehicle sales, services and accessory uses. The D-2.11 Design Overlay will likely be modified to expand allowable uses as part of the specific plan designation. Specific Plan Specific plans contain detailed development standards, distribution of land uses, infrastructure requirements, and implementation measures for the development -of a specific geographic area. A specific plan can be as general as setting broad policy concepts, or as detailed as providing direction on every facet of development. The range of issues that is contained in a specific plan is primarily left to the discretion of the decision-making body. However, all specific plans must comply with Sections 65450- 65457 of the Government Code. These provisions require that a specific plan be consistent with the adopted General Plan of the jurisdiction it is located in. In turn, all subsequent subdivisions and developments must be consistent with the specific plan. The adoption of a specific plan is a legislative act similar_ to adoption of a General Plan or Item 11.a. - Page 4 CITY COUNCIL PRE 15-001 FEBRUARY 24, 2015 PAGES Zoning Ordinance. In effect, a specific plan creates its own zoning standards for a defined area. The applicant submitted a draft specific plan under Pre-Application 14-001 that outlined the general infrastructure requirements for the three subareas, and the land use, development standards, architectural design, open space calculations, and circulation for Subarea 2. The development standards and regulations are the most important aspect of a specific plan since it is through these standards that the goals and policies of the General Plan are implemented. Given that the design elements of the previous draft specific plan will be modified under the formal application, the previous draft document is not included with this pre-application. Preliminary Design of Subarea 2 Although the project site is not located within the D-2.4 Overlay District, the applicant proposes to utilize the City's Village Design Guidelines for determining the architectural styles of the homes. To comply with the overall character and theme of the Village D-2.4 Overlay District, the project includes Bungalow, Craftsmen and Cottage styles for the residential units. Based on the previous pre-application submittal, homes will likely be one or two stories, not to exceed 25' in height, with second stories stepped back by 5'. Lots and homes will be smaller than typical homes developed throughout the City, and therefore more affordable by design. Preliminary Design of Subarea 3 The proposed project for Subarea 3 includes the following components under four main garden zone headings: 1. Japanese Cultural Garden a. A legacy archive -depository of cultural artifacts and history built on the site of the former Hall destroyed by arson in 2011. b. An outdoor educational classroom. c. A traditional Japanese garden. 2. Farm Garden a. An orchard of edible trees planted alongside the existing mature Elderberry tree. b. Raised vegetable bed. c. An edible native herbs and flowers garden. d. A farm commercial kitchen and caretaker's residence built on the site of the former Japanese School House. 3. California Native Garden a. A Community Hall. b. A native grass lawn for play and group gatherings. c. A California native garden. d. A guest house. 4. Historic Orchard a. An orchard of flowering cherry trees. Item 11.a. - Page 5 CITY COUNCIL PRE 15-001 FEBRUARY 24, 2015 PAGE6 b. A timeline path honoring the arrival of Japanese immigrants to Arroyo Grande. c. A Pacific Coast Railroad path retracing original location of the three foot tracks. d. A retail farm stand. e. An existing irrigation well infrastructure. f. Parking. The site plan integrates all of the above components. A turnaround for emergency vehicles is proposed towards the back of the property off of Launa Lane. The applicant proposes to restrict this access to emergency vehicles only and prohibit any vehicular, bicycle or pedestrian access by installing a gate with knox box. The majority of the parking is provided directly off of Cherry Avenue in the area that will be conveyed through a lot line adjustment. A total of twenty-seven (27) spaces are provided, and forty-three (43) are required. Circulation and Road Design The specific plan will need to include development standards applicable to each subarea, including circulation and road design. The applicant provided cross sections for East Cherry Avenue and the internal streets as a component of Pre-Application 14-001, which are expected to be modified with the formal specific plan submittal. A striping plan will also need to be submitted with the formal application that provides details of any turn lanes and transitional sections. City Staff requested that the applicant include a roadway segment to connect with a future offsite road alignment. This would allow for a route to properties located to the south of Subarea 2 up the open space of the St. Barnabas Church property to connect to the 86- acre Frederick property within the City and the Fredrick and Williams properties within the City's Sphere of Influence. These areas have been designated for future development in the City's General Plan. Although no development is planned for the Frederick property, any development there in the future would require a minimum of two points of access and it is likely that the proposed road connection from the project site would be needed to serve as a required secondary connection. Although development thresholds will be studied in the forthcoming Circulation Element and Land Use Element updates, it is important to note that it would be needed even for a low intensity development scenario. Currently, South Traffic Way is the only existing local street connection to the Fredrick property, and due to the topography, other options for southerly access are limited. Environmental Issues The most significant environmental issue related to this specific plan is the conversion of approximately fourteen (14) acres of agricultural land including prime farmland soil. Because this is considered a significant and unavoidable environmental impact, an environmental impact report (EIR) will be required. The applicant has been researching potential agricultural conservation easements within the City limits as mitigation. Item 11.a. - Page 6 CITY COUNCIL PRE 15-001 FEBRUARY 24, 2015 PAGE7 The EIR will also consider all other environmental effects, including aesthetics, air quality, biological resources, geology and soils, greenhouse gas emissions, hydrology and water quality, land use compatibility, noise, transportation and traffic, and utilities and service systems. The specific plan addresses impacts of the project to the City's water supply by comparing the proposed residential use to the existing agricultural use. The document concludes that the residential use will use less ground water than the current agricultural use. A water study will be required as part of the EIR to adequately analyze the impacts of the project on the City's water resources. Another environmental impact issue is the inclusion of residential backyards within the 25' wide creek setback area located along the southern property line. This channel is not identified as a "blue line" water course per the US Geologic Survey (USGS) maps, but is identified on the City's General Plan Conservation and Open Space Element Creek Map as a waterway. Per Section 16.44.050(0) of the City's Municipal Code, a minimum setback of 25' is required for the purpose of safeguarding environmental and sensitive biological resources that contribute to a healthy, functioning ecosystem, and to minimize public and private losses due to flooding. The intent of the setback is to protect human life and health, minimize the expenditure of public money for costly flood control projects, and to enhance natural creek functions and values by providing erosion control, sedimentation prevention, enhancement of riparian habitat corridors, water quality protection and aesthetic and recreational opportunities. Including residential backyards within the setback area does not ensure environmental protection of the water course, nor provide any aesthetic or passive recreational opportunity. In response to staff's concern about protecting the creek setback area and the lost opportunity to create an amenity, the applicant designed an alternative plan that includes enhanced riparian vegetation, open rail wire fencing, and a decomposed granite path within the setback area. ALTERNATIVES: The following alternatives are presented for City Council consideration: 1. Provide comments and suggestions to the applicant in support of processing a general plan amendment and specific plan for the project; 2. Provide comments and suggestions to the applicant in opposition of processing a general plan amendment and specific plan for the project; or 3. Provide direction to staff. ADVANTAGES: The applicant is currently seeking comments and suggestions from the City Council on processing a general plan amendment and specific plan for the project. Ultimate approval of the project would allow commercial, residential and public facility development of the three subareas, and thereby generate additional sales and property tax revenues for the City. The type of housing development proposed on Subarea 2 includes smaller units on smaller lots than conventional single-family housing, and is therefore more affordable by design, which is consistent with the City's Housing Element policies. The proposed architectural styles of the units are consiste~t with the Village Design Guidelines, which Item 11.a. - Page 7 CITY COUNCIL PRE 15-001 FEBRUARY 24, 2015 PAGES helps to extend the character of the Village to the southern gateway to the City. Open space amenities would be provided within both Subareas 2 and 3. Importantly, the project may provide access to the City's large, undeveloped area to the southeast (Fredrick's and Williams' properties) if required. Finally, the project will be designed to minimize water use and retain all stormwater onsite. DISADVANTAGES: The project would permanently remove approximately fourteen (14) acres of prime agricultural soil from the City. The development would also increase traffic in the vicinity. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: No environmental review is required for this item. PUBLIC NOTIFICATION AND COMMENTS: The Agenda was posted in front of City Hall on Thursday, February 19, 2015. The Agenda and staff report were posted on the City's website on Friday, February 20, 2015. No public comments were received. Attachments: 1. City Council Meeting Minutes of July 8, 2014 2.
