He said he had reviewed the legislation and believed it would not impact adversely on the City if it passed rent stabilization. He introduced Craig Amspoker, who is a leading spokesman throughout San Luis Obispo County on the subject of rent stabilization. CRAIG AMSPOKER of Los Os os said he is deli ghted that the City is considering Rent Stabilization because people who own their mobile homes but not the land are economically vunerable. He said it is imperative that a law be passed to control the rent for the people who own a mobile home, which cannot be moved, and the land is sold underneath it. He told about Measure A, a rent control initiative which passed in San Luis Obispo County, and urged the Counci 1 to di rect Mr. Shaw to prepare a rent stabi 1 i zat ion ordinance which is fair and equitable for the City. Also speaking in favor of a mobile home rent stabilization ordinance for the City of Arroyo Grande were CHARLENE HALL of 2700 Highway 1, Oceano; BERNIE BURKE of Sunrise Terrace Mobile Home Park; FRANCI S PACKARD of 2400 Highway 1, Oceano. MELVIN JDHNSON, owner of Vagabond Mobile Home Pa.rk on Traffi c Way, spoke against rent stabilization. He said rent control does not recognize the differences in mobil e home parks, it strongly impl ies that Capital ism does not work and shou 1 d be rep 1 aced, and that rent control overfixes the problem it is supposed to cure. After Counc i 1 discussion, and on motion of Counci 1 Member Johnson, seconded by Council Member Porter, and unanimously carried, to hold a study session at some undetermined date in the future. Council Members also asked for copies of San Luis Obispo County's Measure "A," and sample lease agreements between parks and tenants. PUBLI C SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION TENTATIVE MAP VES- HEARING lING KEGULA1IONS Planning Director said that during the 1985 legislation session, revisions were made to the Subdivision Act which now allow for "Vesting Tentative Maps"-a map that substantially assures that commitments in place at the time of tentative tract approval shall not be changed to the detriment of the subdivider. He said the law requires that cities make adjustments to the existing subdivision ordinances recognizing vesting tent at i ve tracts and allowing cities to add any additional requirements deemed necessary to assure that the city understands fully the ramifications of a tentative tract map before approving a vesting map. He said the staff prepared the amendments to serve the best interests of the city, and the Planning COlTlT1ission, after a Public Hearing, recommends them for approval and adoption. He said the intention of staff and the Planning Commission is to institutionalize what has been done for years in administrative guidelines. Mayor Pro Tem Gallagher said the Notice of Public Hearing had been duly published and all requirements met for this public hearing and invited the public to address the Council. When no one came forward, he declared the hearing closed. After Counci 1 discussion, on motion of Council Member Moots, seconded by Council Member Johnson, and unanimously carried, to dispense with further reading of the Ordinance. ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE MODIFYING THE SUBDIVISION ORDI- NANCE BY AMENOING CERTAIN SECTIONS . -- ~-_._---_._--- I ! , - ~, CITY COUNCIL NOVEMBER 26, 1985 ARROYO GRANDE, CALIFORNIA PAGE THREE ORDINANCE-TENTATIVE MAP VESTING REGULATIONS Continued On motlon of Councll Member Moots, seconded by Council Member Johnson, and on the following roll call vote, to wit: AYES: Council Members Johnson, Moots and Porter and Mayor Pro Tern Gallagher NOES: None ABSENT: Mayor Smith Mayor Pro Tern Gallagher said that constituted the first reading of the Ordinance. PUBLI C PROPOSED AMENDMENT -GENERAL PLAN TEXT AND MAP REGAROING AGR ICUL TURAL SOILS HEARING LAND USE CATEGORY Mr. Eisner said the proposed Resolution would amend the agricultural sect i on of the City's Gener a 1 Plan for the purpose of more completely defining prime soil s in accordance with the guidelines provided by the United State Department of Agriculture and adjusting the minimum parcel size for prime agricultural land to ten (10) acres. He said the General Plan amendment has been prepared in response to a Resolution of Intention No. 1183 adopted by the City Council on the 27th day of August, 1985. He said the proposed amendment has been reviewed by the Planning Commission and the original Resolution modified for clarity. Referring to his staff report of November 21, 1985, Mr. Eisner read the proposed definition of "Prime Farmland" and listed 25 types of prime farmland, which include all of the Prime Lands in the City of Arroyo Grande. Mayor Pro Tern Gallagher referred to a November 22, 1985, letter to the Mayor and City Council from Clark L. Moore, Resource Consultant, discussing the proposed Resolution and the definition of "Prime Farmlands." Mayor Pro Tern Gallagher said the Notice of Public Hearing had been duly pUblished and all requirements met for this public hearing and invited the public to address the Council. C. S. KUREK of 603 Cherry Avenue said the land belonging to Coker Ellsworth should not be exempted from the proposed Resolution, and if the City were to do so it wou 1 d have to exempt everyone in the Vall ey and we would have a big city with no a9riculture. COKER ELLSWORTH OF 129 Bridge Street spoke regarding his property at Cherry Avenue and Branch Mill Road said he is not asking for an exemption, and that he is currently zoned RAB-3 Low Density Residential. He referred to the map on the wall and pointed to three properties that would be affected by the Resolution. He said he would be the only one affected at this point in time, and that is not fair. He said his property is not suitable for agriculture. JUNE WALLER of 1098 Huasna Road said she intends to farm her land, but would like to have the choice of dividing it into less than 10-acre parcels to sell. She said the proposed amendment is not a good one. Mr. Eisner saia her land is zoned for agriculture, but he would have to check her soil type to see if it is Prime Farmland. Mrs. Waller said she has 18 acres, and it is hard to get a tenant to farm that size. CONRAD GRIEB of 303 Halcyon Road said a good portion of his land is "creek" and does not hold moisture. He said, "Are we going to be stuck with this until doomsday?" IDA MAE GRIEB of 303 Halcyon Road said churches I schools and mortuaries have been allowed to build in her area, and asked why her land is being kept in agriculture. HILO FUCHIWAKI of 398 Coach Road said he has 20 acres, and he would retire if the proposed Reso 1 ut i on was passed. He said he has lived here since 1933, and his wife is a native of the area. He asked the Council to give a little thought to the property owner as well as the home owner. ---~,_.-._..__. - ~ CITY COUNC I L NOVEMBER 26, 1985 ARROYO GRANDE, CALIFORNIA PAGE FOUR AMENDMENT-TEXT AND MAP, AGRICULTURE SOILS LAND USE CATEGORY Continued BRIAN ALHANDY of 211 Allen Street asked the Council if it represented the people or staff. CHRIS WALLER of Shell Beach said he farms flower seed in Guadalupe, and that the City should compensate the property owners in this case for their losses. MARIE CATTOIR of 195 Orchid Lane said she supports the farmer, and is in sympathy with the position they are in. She said abuses have taken place in the past, and restrictions were necessary. She said the situation now is punitive. She said we should have viable options. Mayor Pro Tern Galla9her called for others to speak, and when no one came forward, he declared the hearing closed. Council Member Johnson said she real i zed the precari ous position of farmers today, but that the City has been placed 'in the position where every bit of farmland will be built upon. Council Member Porter said prime farmland is the most energy efficient land in the United States. He said we can't give up on our farmland, because we can't rely on our neighboring countries to feed us. Council Member Moots said we have made a commitment to build on the hi lls to save the farmland. He di scussed transfer of dens ity, but said details have not been worked out. Mayor Pro Tern Gallagher said this is an $85 million industry in the Valley. He said it is a natural resource, and the Council is not trying to save land that is not productive. Mr. Eisner read the title of the proposed Resolution. On motion of Council Member Moots, seconded flY Council Member Johnson, and unanimously carried, to dispense with further reading of the proposed Resolution. RESOLUTION NO. 1905 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE MODIFYING THE GENERAL PLAN BY AMENDING TEXT AND GENERAL PLAN MAP REGARDING AGRICULTURAL SOILS LAND USE CATEGORY On motion of Council Member Moots, seconded by Council Member Johnson, and on the following roll call vote, to wit: AYES: Council Members Johnson, Moots and Porter and Mayor Pro Tern Gallagher NOES: None ABSENT: Mayor Smith PUBLI C APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION'S APPROVAL OF USE PERMIT FOR RELOCATION OF HEARING SANTA MANUELA SCHOOL On motion of Council Member Moots, seconded by Council Member Johnson, and unanimously approved to continue this public hearing to January 24, 1985, as requested by the South County Historical Society.

CITY COUNCIL NOVEMBER 26, 1985 ARROYO GRANOE, CALIFORNIA PAGE FIVE TRAFFIC WAY STREETSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS Mr. Mack said the Council had met and opened the public hearing on the plan for Traffic Way November 12, 1985, and then continued the hearing in a study session November 13, 1985. He said that imput from the public at those meetings had been used by staff to draw up a project design. He showed the design map and explained the notes thereon. Mayor Pro Tem Gallagher re-opened the public hearing, and invited comments from the audience. JERRY BOWSER of 510 Woodland Avenue presented a petition from property owners and business proprietors of Traffic Way. The petition endorsed one uniform street width and design for the entire length of Traffic Way. It also endorsed 60 foot curb to curb street wi dth composed of a 16 foot turning lane, two 12 foot travel lanes, two 10 foot parking lanes, and 8 foot sidewalks, within a 76 foot right of way. The petition said it did not endorse meandering pathways and street trees. BILL HART of 207 Bridge Street asked about street lighting, and Mr. Mack replied that the Village Design overlay includes Traffic Way and it should have designer type lamps. MRS. CATTOIR, KEN MCDANIEL of 417 Traffic Way and DANNY PACE of Vic Pace Ford spoke in favor of the petition. Mayor Pro Tem Gallagher called for others to speak, and when no others came forward he closed the public hearing. Council Members said they appreciated the fact that the property owners and business proprietors got together and designed a workable and acceptable plan for Traffi c Way. On mot i on of Counc i 1 Member Johnson, seconded by Counc i 1 Member Moots, and unanimous 1y carried, the Counci 1 adopted: (1) Seventy-s i x foot ri ght of way with two park i ng 1 anes, two trave 1 lanes, a center turn lane and eight foot sidewalks; (2) Trees in the project; (3) No meandering sidewalks; (4) Signals at Fair Oaks and Station Way. A motion to make Bridge Street the same width from one end to the other and modify the park island to accommodate the wider width of the road failed because of a tie vote. Mayor Pro Tem Gallagher asked that the subject be brought back on the next Council meeting agenda. URGENCY FIRE SPRINKLER ORDINANCE City At torney Art Shaw said that at the last Counc i 1 meeting the Counc i 1 approved an oral version of an urgency ordinance. He said he had indicated that he would be bringing back to the Council a written version to approve. He said this would delay the implementation of Ordinance No. 334 on Fire Sprinklers. Mr. Shaw read the title of the Ordinance. On motion of Council Member Moots, seconded by Counc i 1 Member Johnson, and unanimously carried, to dispense with further reading of the Ordinance.

OAK PARK INTERCHANGE PROJECT REPORT Mr. Mack said that the Mayor of Pismo Beach had agreed to meet with Mayor Smith and the Mayor of Grover City prior to December 11, 1985, when Pismo Beach will mee~ with Cal Trans for a study session on the Interchange. Mayor Pro Tem asked lf there was an agreement between the three cities and Cal Trans that should be looked into. Mr. Mack said yes, and the issue would be discussed in Closed Session. OAK PARK COMPOSITION ROOFS REPORT Mr.. Mack referred to his staff report of November 21, 1985, and said that O~d~nance No. 140 C.S. was adopted in 1976 by the City and it contained a prOV1Slon that there should be no rock roofs or composition shingle roofs permitted in Oak Park Acres area. He said the ordinance promoted tile and shakes shingle roofs. He said in Parcel 12 one property owner had succeeded in obtaining a variance from the Planning Commission to put in a composition roof. He said now in the Foremaster Tract there are five building permits for composition shingle roofs have been issued contrary to our own Ordinance, and variances have been given by the CC&R corrmittee in that tract. He said some composition roofs are very attractive these days and have a better fi re rati ng than the shake roofs. He recorrmended that the Council alter Ordinance 140 C.S. to permit composition shingle roofs. Mayor Pro Tem Gallagher asked why the building inspectors were not aware of the Ordinance. Council Member Johnson said the composition roofs are much more attractive than in the past, and have a good fire rating. Council Member Moots said he has concerns about the people who have already built homes in Oak Park Acres following the guidelines of the Ordinance. REUBEN KVIDT developer of Oak Park Acres referred to his letter to the City Manager of November 21, 1985, saying that "in view of the improvements in the quality of composition roofs made since that ordinance was published I feel that it is appropriate to allow composition roofs in certain areas of our development provided the roofs are Class A for fire protection." He said he has no objection to the composition shingle roofs in the Foremaster Tract 604, if they are of architectural quality. ROBERT E. BOWEN of 1033 Acorn Street said he has a home in the new Foremaster Tract, and has a shake roof which he wishes to change to composition shingle for fire safety reasons. BRUCE STUDE of 840 Quail Court said he has a house under construction and has a composition roof. He said it would cost him a lot more money to change to a shake shingle or tile roof. H~ als.o said he is waiting for final inspection of his house, but that the Clty wlll not make the inspection until Foremaster complies with certain conditions drawn up by the City in connection with the tract. BRIAN ALHANDY of 211 Allen Street said there are too many inconsistancies. He also complained about not being able to get a final inspection on a home. BRUCE SEIDLER of Oceano said that although he had not received a building permit which allowed him to put composition shakes on his house, he had changed his plans and ordered his contractor to install such a roof as he was unaware of Ordinance 140 C.S. - .... CITY COUNCIL NOVEMBER 26, 1985 ARROYO GRANDE, CALIFORNIA PAGE SEVEN OAK PARK COMPOSITION ROOFS REPORT Continued After a great deal of discussion the Council expressed its concern over arbitrarily changing Ordinance 140 C.S. without adequate controls being established for future building permit approval. The Council indicated that it was open minded in this regard but would prefer to have a staff recommen- dation which would specifically detail architecturally appropri ate roofi ng requirements which would not leave the matter open to interpretation by each individual builder. On motion by Mayor Pro Tem Gallagher, seconded by Council Member Moots, and unanimously carried, to authorize the City Engineer to grant individual approvals for composition shingle roofs at each of the addresses for which such permits had been previously issued and for the Seidler dwell i ng discussed earlier. It was the Council's directive that the City Engineer assure himself prior to grants of approval that the six structures have roofs with fire ratings of Grade A or better. The Counci 1 also directed him to make a determination that the roofs installed have an overall pleasing effect on the neighborhood. Mr. Karp was further di rected to make sure that all permits, exclusive of the aforementioned, should be in compliance with Ordinance 140 C.S. and its subsequent revisions. Upon completion of the mat- ter dealing with the six exceptions, the Staff was directed to report back to the Council with appropriate wording which could be considered for future modifications to Ordinance 140 C.S. Mr. Karp asked the Council for authorization to deny all future building permit applications within Tract 1158 until such time as the improvements were accepted by the Council. He said that permits had been granted in the past when the majority of improvements had been completed. He said it was the staff's belief at that time that the subdivision would be ready for acceptance by the Council prior to completion of any of the structures permitted within the tract. He said the Building Inspector had been to 1 d to cond it ion all permits so that the builders would know that no final occupancies would be granted until the tract improvements were accepted by the City. He said that as of this date certain items of work and appropriate maintenance guarantees are not yet posted so the tract is not yet ready for completion. As background information with regard to the requests for occupancy by Mr. A1handy who has finished his dwelling and desires final occupancy, Mr. Mack disclosed that one final occupancy had been granted within the subdivi- sion in error by the building inspector. He indicated that the matter had been brought to his attention as justification for granting other occupancies within the subdivision prior to completion of the tract improvements. Mr. Mack said he did not consider the error to be precedent setting and Mr. A1handy's request on behalf of the Seid1ers had been denied. Mr. Karp said he had made his aforementioned request to prevent such problems from occurring in the future within this subdivision. He said that occupancy could not be granted at this time since there were incomplete work items which would preclude tract acceptance by the Council at this time. Council Members asked Mr. Karp to work with the developer (Mr. Foremaster) to gain his cooperation in resolving unfinished work as quickly as possible. Each of the Council members indicated their support of the staff in efforts to not grant occupancies until such time as Mr. Foremaster could resolve the staff's major concerns. On motion of Mayor Pro Tem Gallagher, seconded by Council Member Moot~, and unanimously carried, to authorize the building inspector to deny permlt applications within Tract 1158 until such time as the subdivision improvements are accepted by the Council. ._._~___.n -, CITY COUNCIL NOVEMBER 26, 19B5 ARROYO GRANDE, CALIFORNIA PAGE EIGHT CAR CORRAL PARKING RESOLUTION After Council discussion, Mr. Mack read the title of the proposed Resolution.
