There are small areas of apot zoning which are non-conforn�ing due

A l�rge rolling tract of land in the north part of the City,
northerly of Highway 101 and eaeterly of Oak Park Boulevard, con-
sieting prituarily of three large ownerahips, can beat be developed
through the Planned Developwent approach. The Planned Development
Zone preseatly within the City of Arroyo Grande Zoning Ordinance
waa, originally reCained and adopted wiCh Che idea of utilizing
it oa smaller parcele of land, more than 10 acrea in size._but
not to the extent of these three.prop@rties. However. the�baeic
concepC of Planned Development can be applied to one or moxe of
�theee properties with all of the reviewo and neceesary public
input, through s two or three step process, which rrould still
retain all of the controls anticipa.ted in the original "P•d'
Zoae, but lend adequate necesaary flexibility in the proceasing
of large trecte which would be involved in thia parCicular area
of the City. The proceae auggestion would be baaed upon the
aesutoption that any of the pe�aiasive "P-0" usee would be allow�ad
in the area, providing capability can be aseured end variotis
sensitivitiee, are protected.
1lie praceae would neceasarily involve two or.three rtep�
rathar thap one single."fell ewoop", as the "P-D" Zoning pravidu
for. It.would be virtually impoasible to locate, dinaenaion.
design� and provide other amenitiee and controle set out in the �
"P-D" Dietrict on a 300-404+� acre development. However� these
controls.can be required and controlled in the,following suggeated
procedure: 1) the properties by divided into parcels through
a parcel �a�ap procedure, whereby each parrel is indicated foir. a
primary zone-related land use, and each parcel subject to eithar
(a) additional aubdivision approval if the parcel to be occupi8d
by residenCial uae, or (b) any cu�aercial parcel subject to Car
mission review and approval prior to development. In other wozdo,
each aubdivision would then be required to meet the particular
requirement of the "P- D" Zoned Dietric t.
It ahould.be noted further that in the conditiona of
approval�of either (1) the Parcel Map or (2) the subdivision
or developmenC plan:approval of the parcels, the last additional
etep �ay.be required, which will consiat of archit�ctural approval
sad compliance in any other area of concern, all of which would
be made conditiona of the approval in Steps 1 and 2 previously
noted.

Aa noted in the "P- D" Zoning, dens ity trans fers eoay be
requested by the developer and, under certain conditions, may
be advantageaus to the .land and/or land uee, and help implesnent
protection of land and geology as they naw exiat. l�rther xe-
quirement of clustering, condaminitm►s, and retireiuent rastriction�
can very �rell add to the conditions.for consideration and be mnde
a part and parcel of any proposed CC&Ra placed on the land. In
any parcel,which is restricted ta adult occupancies, the dwelling
unita ahould be,inCreased equal to, or more, than rhe persons e�thich it
would generaCe in relationship to nonnal family dwelltng unite.

It should be expected that the neighborhoc�d shopping
facilities vhich Wae formerly indicated at the corner of
Noyea and Printz Roade would be included in the general area
of one of the parcels, to serve the i�nediatc day-to-day
needs of the people within these developmenCs. Lt ahould
aleo be anticipated that a certain amount of highway-oriented
caomercial use would be indicated adjace�t to the freeway
frontage road and the southerly portion af Oak Park Boulevard.
It ie entirely possible that a portion of one or all
of the three main parcels of property may be recommended,
required, oz acquired for City and/or County oriented
government facilitiea, such as public buildings, aervice
area, parks, and/or open space.

Rewrite of the Schools section of the Land Use Plan
as recommended by City Council, and corrected by
Councilman Spierling at the joint study meeting of
May 17, 1976:
"In view of the present overcrowded conditions
in the Lucia Mar Unified School District and
the failure of the recent Bond Elections, the
preaent and future citizens and planners of
all entities within the school district should
recognize their responsibility to provide edu-
cation facilities and nroQrams for children."
