Honorary Proclamation Recognizing
CHARACTER COUNTS! Week
October 16-22, 2006
WHEREAS, young people will be the stewards of our communities, nation and world in critical
times, and the present and future well-being of our society requires an involved, caring citizenry
with good character; and
WHEREAS, more than ever, children need strong and constructive guidance from their families and
their communities, including schools, youth organizations, religious institutions and civic groups;
and
WHEREAS, the character of a nation is only as strong as the character of its individual citizens,
and the public good benefits when young people learn that good character counts in personal
relationships, in school and in the workplace; and
WHEREAS, scholars and educators agree that people do not automatically develop good character
and, therefore, conscientious efforts must be made by youth-influencing institutions and
individuals to help young people develop the ~ssential traits and characteristics that comprise
good character; and
WHEREAS, character development is, first and foremost, an obligation of families, though efforts
by faith communities, schools, and youth, civic .and human service organizations also playa very
important role in supporting family efforts by fostering and promoting good character; and
WHEREAS, an effective character education .is based on core ethical values which form the
foundation of democratic society - trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and
citizenship - and these "Six Pillars of Character" transcend cultural, religious and socioeconomic
differences; and
WHEREAS, the character and conduct of our youth reflect the character and conduct of society;
therefore, every adult has the responsibility to'teach and model the core ethical values and every
social institution has the responsibility to promote the development of good character.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that I, Tony Ferrara, Mayor of the City of Arroyo Grande, on
behalf of the City Council, and the citizens of Arroyo Grande do hereby proclaim the week of
October 16-22, 2006 as CHARACTER COUNTS! Week, and do hereby endorse the "Six Pillars of
Character" and encourage all citizens, corporate and individual, to model these traits of good
character in an ongoing commitment to promote character development and ethical behavior in
the youth of our community.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal
of the City of Arroyo Grande to be affixed this 24th day of October, 2006.

come up thafwere unable to be fully resolved prior to the meeting. He noted that one issue was
identification of some potential impacts on a neighboring private property as a result of the

issue is a discrepancy in the public hearing notice requirements. He said in response to notification
received from a neighboring property owner who had not received a notice, a thorough review of
the mailing list was conducted and it was discovered a few addresses had not been included. He
recommended the Council continue the public hearing to the Regular City Council Meeting of

recommended alternative with a modification to Exhibit B that includes an objective for the OMU-D-

Bardhyll Nushi, Cerro Vista Circle, expressed concern that the Hospital does not have an approved

Facilities Plan is in place.

Council comments ensued including the need to balance public comments with goals established
by the City as it relates to the demand for additional housing; acknowledgment of creek setback
requirements and policies to ensure creek protection; acknowledgment that the City's responsibility
is to address land use planning; acknowledgment that the Hospital issues are complex and
determining needs for the future will take time; acknowledgment of the Hospital's difficulty recruiting
doctors due to lack of housing opportunities; support for mixed use (should not be 100%
residential); acknowledgment that the area needs a land use designation to allow for future growth
and that it is up to the property owners to determine proposed projects; clarification that the existing
Mixed Use Overlay is already in place and that this proposal provides the Hospital with flexibility for
future expansion; and support for the revised alternative as presented.

CONSIDERATION OF PROPOSAL TO PURCHASE AND INSTALL
UPGRADE TO THE CITY'S CABLE TELEVISION PLAYBACK AND
PRESENTATION SYSTEM
TO:
DATE:
OCTOBER 24, 2006
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council appropriate $12,250 from the Public, Education and
Government (PEG) Access Fund and direct staff to implement the proposal submitted
by AGP Video for design and installation of the upgrade to the City's cable television
playback and presentation system.
FUNDING:
The cost proposal for the improvements to the system is a not to exceed amount of
$12,250. It will be paid entirely from the Fund Balance in the City's PEG Access Fund,
which is revenue generated from PEG access fees charged to cable subscribers. The
projector purchased as part of the system will reduce ongoing charges from AGP Video
for use of their equipment of $750 per month.
DISCUSSION:
In May 2005, staff presented to the City Council recommendations for upgrade of the
City's cablecasting system associated with adding Planning Commission meetings to
programming on the City's Government Channel. Staff is recommending the City
proceed with the first phase of these, improvements at this time, which includes
purchase and installation of a projector, ceiling mounted projector screen and upgrades
to the playback system. The second phase will include the purchase and installation of
ceiling mounted remote controlled cameras.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council's consideration:
- Appropriate funding and direct staff to implement improvements;
- Approve staffs recommendations and appropriate an additional $2,500 to include
an automated ceiling mounted screen rather than the proposed manual screen;

Presentation System and Phase I Playback System Upgrade
\

,
FROM:
RE:
Attached is the AGP spread sheet delineating equipment and costs for these two facets of the upgraded
systems for presentation and playback. Also attached are two diagrams. Image I shows how the
projection screen will be attached to the wall, and Image 2 shows the layout with new presentation
system elements in the room.
The presentation system includes a ceiling mounted projector, a ceiling mounted pull-down screen,
document camera, combination DVDNHS tape player, router and associated wiring, converters and
switching system. We did not include a presentation laptop computer, as we were told that the City is
planning on purchasing a laptop. After a conversation with City Clerk Kelly Welmore, a MP3 recorder
and additional recording chip has been included in this package.
Phase I Playback System Upgrade meets the immediate need to maintain and improve the quality of
playback on the channel. The three harddrives will allow for the playback at highest quality of both City
Council and Planning Commission meetings during the same week, as well as provide a harddrive for
playback of other programming, including the upcoming campaign forums.
The costs for each element in summary are as follows:
Presentation System
Phase I Playback System Upgrade
Total
$ 8,955.76
2.716.76
$11,672.52
Recommended contingency amount
for unforeseen costs, requirements changes
$583.63
Not-to-Exceed Presentation System and Phase I Upgrade Total
$12,256.14
With an agreement from you with direction to proceed, we will purchase and install the equipment
ASAP. Our goal is to have these two elements completed by end of September.
In the going forward, Phase II will be the production system upgrade. Weare in the process of fine-
tuning the equipment list, and will be in discussion with you on that element in the near future. Phase III
will be a proposed in-depth upgrade to the playback system, potentially including a new channel
operations computer and program playback device and software. It is our goal to have the entire upgrade
of the entire system completed by the end of 2006.
We appreciate your consideration and patience. Please let us know if you have any questions or need
more information.

MEMORANDUM
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: STEVEN ADAMS, CITY MANAGE~
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF SUPPORT FOR PROPOSITION 84 - THE
CLEAN WATER, PARKS AND COASTAL PROTECTION BOND OF
2006
DATE: OCTOBER 24, 2006
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council adopt the attached Resolution in support of
Proposition 84 - The Clean Water, Parks and Coastal Protection Bond of 2006.
FUNDING:
There is no cost impact from this action. Funding may be available to the City for
projects as a result of the measure.
DISCUSSION:
Backqround
California is facing enormous population growth in the coming years, with 25 million new
residents expected by 2040. However, investment in infrastructure is not keeping pace
with population growth. Current funding for natural resources and environmental
protection programs is low - less than 1 % of the overall state budget. Investments are
needed to ensure that all Californians will have access to safe drinking water, better
protection from floods and opportunities to enjoy parks, natural landscapes and our
rivers, lakes, beaches, bays and coastline.
The League of California Cities supports this measure and has requested cities to take
action in support. In addition, a broad coalition of interests - water districts,
conservation and environmental groups, local government entities, museum and park
interests, elected officials, and civic organizations - has been formed to support
Proposition 84, the Clean Water, Parks and Coastal Protection Bond.
Safe Drinkinq Water. Water Qualitv and Water Supplv
Proposition 84 will provide funding for programs that will help ensure safe drinking water
for all Californians by cleaning up polluted waters and protecting them from further
contamination. The measure will dedicate funds to protect the water quality of the
Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta- the source of drinking water for 23 million

Californians. In addition, Proposition 84 will provide funds to assist each region of
California in improving local water supply reliability and local water quality.
Protection of Rivers. Lakes and Streams
Proposition 84 will provide funding to develop river parkways, restore and protect urban
streams, and keep contaminated storm water runoff out of our rivers, lakes and
streams.
Protection of Beaches. Bavs and Coastal Waters
Proposition 84 dedicates $540 million to help preserve ocean, major bays, and
watersheds.
Flood Control
Proposition 84 will provide for funding the identification and mapping of high-risk flood
areas and the inspection and repair of levees and flood control facilities. By planning,
designing and implementing multi-objective flood corridor projects, Proposition 84 will
reduce future flood risk and maximize public benefits.
State and Local Parks and Public Access to Natural Resources
Proposition 84 will include projects that will expand and restore the state park system to
reflect the state's growing population and shifting population centers. Proposition 84 will
also provide funding for the creation of local and regional parks. In addition, it will fund
the development of nature education opportunities at institutions including, natural
history museums, aquariums, research facilities and botanical gardens
Wildlife and Forest Conservation
Proposition 84 will fund the programs needed to protect California's forests, wildlife as
well as preserve working forests, farms and ranches.
Sustainable Communities: Preparinq for Population Growth and Climate Chanqe
California's rise in population and the impacts of climate change pose significant
challenges. These challenges must be addressed through careful planning and
improvements in our land use and water management systems. Proposition 84 will help
California prepare for the challenges that lie ahead, while improving the livability of our
cities and communities through programs to re-design California's water and flood
control systems.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council's consideration:
- Approve Resolution in support of Proposition 84;
Do not approve Resolution;
Direct staff to prepare Resolution opposing Proposition 84;

OF 2006
DATE: OCTOBER 24, 2006
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council adopt the attached Resolution in support of
Proposition 1 C, the Housing and Emergency Shelter Trust Fund Act of 2006.
'-
FUNDING:
There is no cost impact from this action. Funding may be available to the City for
projects as a result of the measure.
DISCUSSION:
The San Luis Obispo County Trust Fund has requested the City formally support
Proposition 1 C, the Housing and Emergency Shelter Trust Fund Act of 2006. The
League of California Cities has formally supported this measure.
Proposition 1 C would dedicate $2.85 billion in funds to create housing options, including
affordable apartments, emergency shelter, supportive housing, and homeownership for
working families, people with disabilities, survivors of domestic violence and farm
workers. California voters previously passed Proposition 46, the Housing Bond of 2002,
to fund housing development throughout the State. More than $4 million in Prop 46
funds were awarded for projects in SLO County, including the Family Care Network
project in Arroyo Grande.
Proposition 46 funds will be depleted by 2007 and the need remains urgent in San Luis
Obispo County for affordable housing. In San Luis Obispo County, a $130,000 income
is needed to afford the County's median home sales price and more than 1/3 of the low
income households pay more than 50% of their gross income for housing.

percentage of the increase in premium costs as negotiated in their respective MOU's.
In order to implement these cost-sharing agreements with CalPERS, separate
resolutions for each employee group or association must be adopted. These
resolutions are attached for City Council consideration.

MEMORANDUM
TO: CITY COUNCIUREDEVELOPMENT AGENCY BOARD OF DIRECTORS
FROM: STEVEN ADAMS, CITY MANAGER/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR ;1t-/
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS FOR STARTUP
COSTS FOR EAST GRAND AVENUE BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT
ASSOCIATION
DATE: OCTOBER 24,2006
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council/Redevelopment Agency Board of Directors
appropriate and authorize the. City Manager/Executive Director to expend $2,000 for
startup costs for the formation 'of an East Grand Avenue Business Improvement
Association.
FUNDING:
Funds are recommended to be appropriated from the Redevelopment Agency budget.
Therefore, there will be no impact to the City's General Fund.
DISCUSSION:
The Mayor and staff have participated in a number of meetings with business
representatives on E. Grand Avenue, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Village
Improvement Association (VIA). The purpose of the meetings have been to form a
business association similar to the VIA, which would focus on and serve the E. Grand
Avenue corridor. The goals would be to coordinate efforts and promotional activities to
attract customers, provide feedback and coordination on efforts with the City, and fund
and coordinate improvements to the corridor. Initial discussions have included efforts to
create a brochure to solicit membership, plans to increase holiday lighting in front of
businesses, and to promote and enhance the Cruise Night event.
Individual businesses are providing additional startup revenue and new members will
pay a membership fee. However, additional funding from the City will assist in
facilitating the organization to move ahead. The objective is for the organization to
become financially self-sufficient. Given that the organization will significantly benefit
the City's economic development goals, staff believes this funding will be a good
investment.

FROM: DON SPAGNOLO, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS/CITY ENGINEER c1J6
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF AUTHORIZATION TO PURCHASE A SELF-
PRIMING PUMP AND MOTOR FOR SOTO DETENTION BASIN NO.1
DATE: OCTOBER 24, 2006
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the purchase of a 50 h.p. self-priming
pump. motor and suction hose for Soto Detention Basin No. 1 from Godwin Pumps in
the amount of $23,537.09.
FUNDING:
Funding for the equipment is included in the Drainage Pumps and Piping at Soto Sports
Complex capital improvement project. The total project budget is $150,000. These
funds were received from S & S Homes as mitigation for the Park Side development.
The proposed pump, motor and suction pipe is the first phase of the overall project.
DISCUSSION:
The City is in the process of improving the operational characteristics of the storm drain
basin system at the Soto Sports Complex. The first phase of the overall project is to
improve operation of the detention basins. Two bids were received for the equipment.
The lowest bid was submitted by Godwin Pumps, which included one (1) new skid
mounted 50 h.p. self-priming pump and motor with 40 feet of heavy duty suction hose.
The pump will be capable of pumping 1,500 gpm, which will lower the water level of
Basin NO.1 during an average storm event.
Providing a pump at Basin NO.1 will allow storm water to be discharged to the creek via
the existing bleeder line or pumped to basin NO.2 for use as irrigation water. This will
provide flexibility in addressing the available storm water storage capacities of the Soto
basins. The electrical service connection to operate the pump motor will be provided by
a licensed electrician. The Public Works Department will install the pump, motor and
piping.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council's consideration:
Approve staff's recommendation to purchase a 50 h.p. pump/equipment and
hose from Godwin Pumps at the bid price "of $23,537.09;
Do not approve staff's recommendations;

weekly and all consumable goods used (all paper products and soap). The bids
submitted were evaluated on a per-hour cost. The low bid was $3,834.00 monthly
($46,008.00 annually) by Service Master. Based on the number of hours of service,
staff recommends awarding the contract for two years with a one-year renewal clause.
The next lowest bids were from Commercial Maintenance Service ($4,050 per month/
$48,600 per year) and Pacific Coast Floor & Building Maintenance ($4,125 per
month/$49,500 per year). The current contractor, Clean Sweep Janitorial, submitted a

past three years. The low bid has been reviewed for meeting all stated requirements
and has been deemed complete.

INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of the Work, Contractor will
maintain insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. Contractor
will use existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage
does not meet the requirements set forth here, Contractor agrees to amend,
supplement or endorse the existing coverage to do so. Contractor acknowledges that
the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum
amount of coverage required. Any insurance proceeds available to City in excess of the
limits and coverage required in this agreement and which is applicable to a given loss,
will be available to City.
Contractor shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:
Commercial General Liability Insurance using Insurance Services Office "Commercial
General Liability" policy from CG 00 01 or the exact equivalent. Defense costs must be
paid in addition to limits. There shall be no cross liability exclusion for claims or suits by
one insured against another. Limits are subject to review but in no event less than
$1,000,000 per occurrence.
Business Auto Coverage on ISO Business Auto Coverage from CA 00 01 including
symbol 1 (Any Auto) or the exact equivalent. Limits are subject to review, but in no
event to be less than $1,000,000 per accident. If Contractor owns no vehicles, this
requirement may be satisfied by a non-owned auto endorsement to the general liability
policy described above. If Contractor or Contractor's employees will use personal autos
in any way on this project, Contractor shall provide evidence of personal auto liability
coverage for each such person.
Workers Compensation on a state-approved policy form providing statutory benefits as
required by law with employer's liability limits no less than $1,000,000 per accident or
disease.
Insurance procured pursuant to these requirements shall be written by insurer that are
admitted carriers in the state California and with an A.M. Bests rating of A- or better and
a minimum financial size VII.
General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Contractor.
Contractor and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by
Contractor:
Page 11
1. Contractor agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general
liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials
employees and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition
prior to 1992. Contractor also agrees to require all Contractors, and subContractors to
do likewise.
2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement
shall prohibit Contractor, or Contractor's employees, or agents, from waiving the right of
subrogation prior to a loss. Contractor agrees to waive subrogation rights against City
regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all Contractors
and subContractors to do likewise.
3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or
applicable to this agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies.
Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its
operations limits the application of such insurance coverage.
4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these
requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first
submitted to City and approved of in writing.
5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve
to eliminate so-called "third party action over" claims, including any exclusion for bodily
injury to an employee of the insured or of any Contractor or subcontractor.
6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification
and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contractor shall not make
any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction
of discovery period) that may affect City's protection without City's prior written consent.
7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of
certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional
insured endorsement to Contractor's general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at
or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is
not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no
replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any
insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement
and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly
paid by Contractor or deducted from sums due Contractor, at City option.
8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to
City of any cancellation of coverage. Contractor agrees to require its insurer to modify
such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to
mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will
"endeavor" (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the
certificate.
Page 12
9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance
coverage required to be provided by Contractor or any subContractor, is intended to
apply first and on a primary, noncontributing basis in relation to any other insurance or
self insurance available to City.
10. Contractor agrees to ensure that subContractors, and any other party
involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Contractor,
provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contractor. Contractor
agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for
ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this
section. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with subContractors and
others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review.
11. Contractor agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions
or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that it
will not allow any Contractor, subContractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or
person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by
this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Contractor's existing coverage
includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention
must be declared to the City. At the time the City shall review options with the
Contractor, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured
retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions.
12. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to
change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contractor ninety
(90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial
additional cost to the Contractor, the City will negotiate additional compensation
proportional to the increase benefit to City.
13. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be
deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps
that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement.
14. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on
the part of City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any insurance requirements
in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights
hereunder in this or any other regard.
15. Contractor will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its
employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this
agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the agreement is canceled or
terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City
executes a written statement to that effect.
Page 13
16. Contractor shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein
expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other
policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been
ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from
Contractor's insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance
and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to
the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration
of the coverages.
17. The provisions of any workers' compensation or similar act will not limit
the obligations of Contractor under this agreement. Contractor expressly agrees not to
use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its

To Whom It May Concern:
It is with pleasure that I am writing a letter of reference on behalf of Service Master CBM.
Service Master CBM has had the janitorial contract for county owned buildings located in North
County of Santa Barbara for over 13 years. This would include approx. 34 facilities located
throughout Santa Maria, Solvang, Buellton and Lompoc. In July 2006, I renewed this contract
for an additional 3 years based on the history with the company and with full confidence that I
would continue to receive the same level of satisfaction I have come to appreciate.
I have always found the service to be above contract standards. I feel they go above and
beyond with our Task Schedule, follow up with any issues that may arise and Mr. Hopson
assures that I have contact with him on a regular basis regarding our facilities.
In addition to the excellent service provided by Service Master CBM, another advantage I find is
the service of the staff. They are always available, courteous and more than willing to help out
and I appreciate that there is always a staff member available during my business hours.
If you would like further information, please do not hesitate to contact me at 805.896.6515.
Thank you,

To Whom It May Concern:
Since July 1,2001 ServiceMaster Commercial Building Maintenance has been furnishing
contract janitorial maintenance services for the City of San Luis Obispo's recreation
facilities, including the Ludwick Recreation Center, the Senior Center, the Meadow Park
Multi-Purpose Building, and the Jack House Service Building and Restrooms. This
service is provided through a six-year contract that was procured through a request for
proposals.
After interviewing all proposing firms and checking their references, a review committee
scored the firms on various service factors based on a scale from 0.00 to 4.00, with 0.00
being unsatisfactory and 4.00 being excellent. ServiceMaster's average score was 3.88
out of 4.00, and it was awarded the contract. Since then, it has lived up to its high rating
with timely and exemplary service. It has been a pleasure to work with this firm, and I
am confident that if you select this firm to work for you, you will appreciate your
association with it.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
FROM:
CITY COUNCIL
DANIEL C. HERNANDEZ, DIRECTOR OF PARKS, RECREATION AND ~
FACILITIES
SUBJECT:
CONSIDERATION OF AUTHORIZATION TO SUBMIT A PROPOSAL TO
THE LUCIA MAR UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT TO BE A PARTNER IN
THE BRIGHT FUTURES PROGRAM
DATE:
OCTOBER 24, 2006
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council authorize the Director of Parks, Recreation and
Facilities to submit a proposal to the Lucia Mar Unified School District to become a
partner in the Bright Futures Program.
FUNDING:
Funding for the Children In Motion Program is included in the FY 2006/07 budget.
Costs for operating as part of the Bright Futures Program will be reimbursed by the
School District. Currently, the program operates at approximately a 75% cost recovery,
which is higher than typical programs operated statewide by recreation departments.
The current expenditure budget for the year is $402,730. Summer program
expenditures, as well as for winter and spring breaks and teacher conference dates, are
not affected. Since Bright Futures reimburses direct as well as indirect costs, overall
program subsidy should actually be reduced from $102,000 to approximately $80,000-
$85,000. Actual figures will be determined when the detailed proposal is completed.
Additionally, the City would no longer be required to pay for facility use; this would save
the City an additional $7,500 per year in facility use fees.
DISCUSSION:
The Lucia Mar Unified School District has requested the Parks, Recreation and
Facilities Department to submit a proposal to become a partner in the School District's
Bright Futures Program. The School District has applied for and been awarded a three-
year, renewable grant from the State of California's After School Education and Safety
Program (ASES). The San Luis Obispo County YMCA and the United South County
Boys and Girls Club are currently Bright Futures partners and provide programs in
Grover Beach and Oceano Elementary Schools.
The City Parks, Recreation and Facilities Department currently offers state licensed
before-and-after-school childcare at Branch, Margaret Harloe and Ocean View
Elementary Schools. During regular school days, care is provided from 7:00 a.m., until
school begins, and again when school gets out, until 6:00 p.m. Participants pay the City

an .hourly rate for the childcare program. On October 9, 2006, the Lucia Mar Unified
School District contacted City Parks, Recreation and Facilities Department staff and
indicated that in order to continue providing care at the schools listed above, the
department would be required to submit a proposal to become a partner in the School
District's Bright Futures Program.
The Bright Futures Program is funded from Proposition 49 funds allocated to school
districts statewide (Attachment 1). The requirement is to partner with a local service
provider. Since the City currently provides childcare at Ocean View, Branch and Harloe
Elementary Schools, this department was the obvious choice for a partnership. The
new program will incorporate our current drop-in recreational activities with organized
activities, such as, computer lab workshops, and specialty classes like cheerleading,
chess club, arts and crafts, as well as other similar offerings. Current staff would be
selected to lead many of these classes. The Bright Futures Program would operate
after school until 6:00 p.m. The City would continue to offer before-school care,
winter/spring/summer break camps, and school holidays under our current operational
format. The benefit of maintaining this relationship with the School District is
maintaining our ability to continue to provide childcare programs in addition to Bright
Futures classes on school sites.
Meetings with the School District are scheduled to obtain more detailed information
regarding the Bright Futures Program. Proposals need to be submitted to the School
District as soon as possible and are to be received by the State on or before November
3, 2006. Pertinent information related to this program is attached.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Council's consideration:
Approve staff's recommendation;
Do not approve participating in the Bright Futures Program and eliminate the
City's childcare program;
Request additional information:
Provide direction to staff.

categorical funds for remedial education activities shall not be used to make the required
contribution of local funds for those ASES programs. Since there is not a state categorical
program called "remedial education" you will need to work with the accounting office of your
partner LEA to determine which categorical funds are designated for student remedial
services.
Who will staff the program?
The administrator of the ASES program must establish minimum qualifications for each staff
position and ensure that all staff members who directly supervise students meet at least the
minimum qualifications for an instructional aide in the school district. The minimum
qualifications for an instructional aide vary, so it is important to check with the LEA's
personnel department. The administrator must ensure that the program maintains a student-
to-staff ratio of no more than 20 to 1. A lower student-to-staff ratio is allowabie and may be
achieved with a cadre of trained volunteers and other strategies. Also, the principal of each
participating school must approve the selection of ASES program site supervisors. All
program staff and volunteers are subject to heaith screening and fingerprint clearance
requirements in current law and district policy for school personnel and volunteers in the
school district.
Is a collaborative process required for the ASES program?
Yes, current law requires that ASES programs operate as collaboratives. Communities
implementing ASES programs should build upon existing local collaboratives and use
proven strategies to provide a unified, integrated system of service for children and youth.
Every ASES program shall be planned through a collaborative process that includes
parents, youth, and representatives of participating public schools, governmental agencies,
such as city and county parks and recreation departments, local law enforcement,
community organizations, and the private sector. The collaborative should consider: ways to
allocate resources or to work closely with those who can provide resources; how to manage
daily work of the site, advocate for and implement necessary changes; determine means to
. continuously improve the decision-making process, share accountability among partners;
i and how the collaborative can serve as an advocate for parents and children.
How can my agency assess the needs of children and youth in, and the strengths of
our ASES program?
lit is importantto use current assessments such as the California Healthy Kids Survey,
strategies such as those included in the School Site and Safe School plans, and other
assessment instruments as appropriate. Analysis of strengths should focus on children and
youth, the school(s) and district, city or county organizations, service agencies (public and
non-profit), businesses, faith-based organizations, and other community groups. Consider
what is, and is not, working well for children and their families within the existing system.
Also, the perspectives of children and youth need to be assessed to assure the program is
effectively meeting their needs.
Exampies of needs that can be fulfilled through the ASES program are: helping students
perform at grade levei, teaching students the dangers of drug addiction and gang
involvement, and assisting students to help the community through service-learning
activities. Examples of strengths are: active coordination between regular day and after
school staff, a well designed locai school plan that includes the ASES program, and
supportive community-based and/or faith-based organizations in your local area.
What Implementation strategies will build on what students learn during the regular
school day?
Applicants should consider the following questions when designing how the ASES program
will support what is taught during the regular day: What are the existing and proposed new
efforts in the educational and literacy component for elementary and/or middle schools?
How Is the program connected with the district's standards, assessment, and accountability
system? How will the program be integrated with the school's curriculum? How will the
ASES program address student diversity (ethnicity, language, etc.) and learning needs?
What evidence is available regarding the effectiveness of proposed strategies? How are
teachers, site administrators, support staff and community members Involved? What
evidence of long-term commitment from your partners is provided (e.g., Memorandums Of
Understanding and budget match)?

California's ASES Program Fully Funded in 2006-07 - After School Education & Safety... Page 4 of 4
What enrichment activities will lead to desired program results?
Applicants should consider the following questions when designing how the ASES program
will enrich student learning: What are the existing and proposed new efforts in the
enrichment (recreation. prevention, etc.) component for elementary and/or middle schools?
How will you provide a variety of enrichment activities that will allow selection based on
students' interests and talents? What youth development activities will be offered? How will
the ASES program address student diversity (ethnicity, language. etc.)? What is your plan
for integration with community, city, and/or county, and school and/or district enrichment
programs and initiatives, such as recreation, mentoring, and community s8IVice-learning?
What evidence is available on the effectiveness of proposed strategies? How are the
administrators and staff of these programs and initiatives involved?
How can my agency evaluate our local program?
Applicants should consider the following questions in designing an ASES program
evaluation system: What is your current capacity for conducting program evaluation? How
will your program develop a local evaluation system including student and parent satisfaction
for your ASES program? How will you measure progress for the result areas selected,
collect and analyze data, and report results for program participants? What is your plan for
continuous improvement? How is your evaluation linked to your collaborative partners? How
will your ASES evaluation integrate with existing program evaluations? What resources will
be committed to evaluation, including dissemination of results? Which of your collaborative
partners will be the lead on program evaluation? What experience do they have in
conducting evaluations similar to the one for this grant?
Who can I contact for more information?
The after school system of field support is divided into 11 service regions consisting of
several counties with similar demographics. Each region has an after school regional lead
who provides assistance to current and prospective grantees in their region. For more
information about the ASES program, please contact the CDE's, After School Partnerships
Office consultant for your region; or, you can contact the after school regional lead for your
region. A list of these contacts is available at: .

RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council consider an addendum to a certified EIR and a
proposal for a commercial retail, office and residential project located in the Village of
Arroyo Grande (Creekside Mixed-Use Center), take tentative action on the project and
direct staff to return with a supporting resolution.
FUNDING:
There would be additional City costs associated with maintenance if the City accepts the
offer of dedication of the creek channel and creek setback area.
DISCUSSION:
Backqround
The City Council adopted Resolution No. 3710 on September 23,2003 certifying the Final
Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the Creekside Center project. The previous
project proposed to retain and remodel the existing office building, relocate two former
Loomis residences, remove the E.C. Loomis and Son Feed Store and develop a retail
commercial, office and residential complex on the former Loomis property located at the
east edge of the Village. The EIR determined that the main residence would be eligible for
listing in the Califomia Register as a historical resource, and that the grain warehouse
serves as an important feature of the setting of the main house. In response to this
determination, the applicant submitted revised plans that retain all of the existing
structures and provides a larger residential component.
The Planning Commission considered the project on April 19, 2005 and made the
following recommendation to Council (see Attachment 1 for Meeting Minutes):

Recommend denial of the proposal based on the inability to make findings No.1, 2 and
3 of the Resolution approving the project regarding issues of consistency with the goals,
objectives, policies, plans, programs, intent, and requirements of the General Plan; public
health, safety, and welfare; and consistency with the purpose and intent of the
Development Code.
The Commission further added that the project could meet the findings for approval if the
following issues were dealt with:
1. The driveways on Crown Terrace should be level or down sloped to the
street.
2. The barn should be preserved in its entirety with net loss of three parking
spaces and include a parking reduction for the barn or reduction in the
proposed retail space to accommodate the loss of three parking spaces.
3. Provide public access to creek and park open space area.
4. There should be no gate, but have a "look back" provision to reassess after
one year. Enough space should be left if it is determined that a gate is
necessary at a later date.
5. The building design, height and materials should go back to ARC and
Planning Commission before issuance of a building permit for final
development.
6. There should be further determination and detailed description of any
retaining walls along Crown Terrace.
7. The issue of biological creek filters should be included in the staff report to
Council.
8. A model to scale of the project in its entirety should be presented to Council.
9. The project should be reduced by one unit in Plan 'B" to improve on-site
loading and parking.
1 O. The access between the Barn and Loomis house should provide a pedestrian
path out to the sidewalk.
In response to Planning Commission comments and concerns, the applicant proposed the
following project revisions.
1. Residential driveways leading from the four (4) residential units along Crown
Terrace will slope downward to provide for traffic sight distance visibility.
2. The addition to the rear portion of the existing warehouse will be retained and
the resultant loss of parking spaces will be absorbed with a subsequent loss of
retail space at the warehouse or the conversion of existing residences to
commercial uses.
3. The existing loading dock along the easterly wall of the warehouse will be
retained, and the newly constructed handicap ramp will be relocated with
development of the proposed commercial structure.
4. A pedestrian access will be provided from East Branch Street between the
warehouse and Loomis house leading to the residential area of the project.
5. The originally proposed controlled access gate between the residential and
commercial areas has been eliminated from the project plans.

6. The City's ARC and Planning Commission will approve final building designs,
materials of construction and color schemes.
7. The guardrail along Crown Terrace is to be constructed in accordance with the
standards adopted by the City of Arroyo Grande.
8. The applicant intends to incorporate the Best Available Technology (BAT), as
outlined by the Federal EPA standards, to deal with pollution caused by urban
ru noff.
9. A scale model for the site has been completed at a scale of 1"=20' and will be
available at the City Council meeting.
10. Flood sections with this development were presented with the subdivision
application submittal. These sections and calculations indicate conformance
with the City's Flood Plain Management Ordinance No. 501.
11. Creek clean up and restoration will be improved and managed with the
development of the residential component of the project in accordance with the
submitted landscape plans and the recommendations contained within the FEIR
for the project.
12. The elimination or modification of street light structures and their intensity in the
residential areas of the project is acceptable if the City allows for deviation from
these requirements.
The City Council considered this project on June 14, 2005 and continued the item to a
date uncertain pending resolution of several issues (see Attachment 2 for Meeting
Minutes). Issues discussed included:
. Reciprocal access agreement with adjacent property to the west.
. Safe access to Paulding Middle School.
. Sight distance concem on Crown Terrace where it intersects with Crown Hill.
. Left turn pocket design.
. Crown Terrace/Le Point Street intersection improvements.
. Tree removal along Crown Terrace.
. Large scale of proposed commercial building in relation to the Loomis barn.
. Clarification of how the public/private interface within the 25' creek setback area
will be managed.
. Emphasis of pedestrian access throughout the project.
. Widening of Crown Terrace.
In response to Council comments, the applicant secured a reciprocal easement for ingress
and egress with the neighboring property to the west (see Attachment 3 for signed
agreement), and revised the tentative tract map to show the 25' wide creek setback area
as an individual parcel to be irrevocably offered to the City. Revisions to the Grading Plan,
Easement Plan and Flood Sections were also made. The applicant additionally submitted
the following exhibits to further clarify features of the project (see Attachment 4 ):
1. Creek Easement. Open Space and Setback Exhibit, identifying the various
setbacks and easements along Tally Ho Creek. The 25' wide creek setback
area is shown on the revised tentative tract map as Lot 14. Consistent with
CITY COUNCIL

PAGE 4
Development Code Section 16.64.060(R), the creekbed and 25' from the top of
the bank will be irrevocably dedicated to the City. The area identified on the
exhibit as the shaded homeowners open space area is an open space amenity
accessible to members of the Creekside Homeowners Association (HOA) and
will be maintained by the HOA. The applicant recommends that a trail
easement be recorded but remain unimproved, without public access, until such
time as additional easement segments are acquired and a trail constructed by
the City linking a creek trail system between existing public right of ways (on Le
Point Street and East Branch Street).
2. Creek Landscaoina and Imorovement Plan Exhibit, which shows proposed
landscaping, play structure and other miscellaneous improvements within the
floodplain setback area. Slight modifications to the landscape plan will be
necessary to move the proposed Homeowner's amenities from the area now
identified as Lot 14.
3. Creek Gradina Plan Exhibit, illustrating the preliminary grading proposed for the
creek area and adjacent houses.
4. Comoosite Creek Gradina and Landscaoina Plan Exhibit, which is a composite
of the above two exhibits.
5a. Pedestrian Pathways Exhibit, illustrating pedestrian and open space
connections through the project to East Branch Street and the Village Area.
5b. Drivewav and Parkina Areas Exhibit, including the second access onto East
Branch Street.
6. Sidewalk View of New Buildina - Desian Comoatibilitv Exhibit shows the view of
the new commercial building and warehouse building from a pedestrian's
sidewalk viewpoint from the north side of East Branch Street.
7. Warehouse/New Buildina - Desian Comoatibilitv Exhibit shows existing and
proposed views of the property frontage illustrating compatible size, scale and
design elements between the existing warehouse and new commercial building
without making any design modifications to the design of the submitted project.
8. East Branch Street/Crown Hill Street/Condo Street Elevation Exhibit illustrates
the size and scale of the main architectural elements in the vicinity. The exhibit
shows that the condo units, with the exposed under story, dominate the visual
backdrop to the site and in the neighborhood. The proposed commercial
building provides a middle position in the spatial hierarchy of the streetscape
and appears complimentary in size, scale and massing to the other urban forms
on the site.

impact of required retaining wall heights if Crown Terrace were to increase from
two, 12' wide travel lanes with no parking to two, 15' travel lanes. Other relatEid
impacts would be shorter length of driveways, effects on structural retaining
walls within the residential units and floor plan redesigns.
10. Left Tum Pocket Exhibit shows the design and functional characteristics of a left
tum pocket into the project from Crown Hill Street. A 6' wide sidewalk with ADA
compliance ramps will also be improved. Final design details of these
improvements will accompany the improvement plans for the project.
'-'
The applicant submitted additional information regarding drainage including calculations
identifying the difference in pre and post development volumes for various storm events
using the San Luis Obispo County standards. The drainage evaluation indicates that the
peak flows are being reduced through reduction in impervious surface area. Also included
is correspondence between the City Public Works Department and TEC Civil Engineering
Consultants discussing drainage detention basin need, design" and location (see
Attachment 5).
Regarding the suggested redesign of Plan "A", the applicant studiEid the point of access for
the upper duplex unit at the comer of Le Point and Crown Terrace and determined that
due to the steepness of the Le Point slope, the garage access would be awkward and
potentially conflict and interfere with travel lane vehicles at the intersection. Therefore, no
design modifications of the garage location were made. The applicant also evaluated the
removal of the three-foot high clearstory roof element on the commercial building and
concluded that this detail helps to provide visual relief to the roof plane, and helps diminish
the vertical profile ofthe building.
Council considered the above revisions to the project on August 8, 2006 (see Attachment
.2 for Meeting Minutes) and directed staff and the applicant to address the issue
conceming impervious surfaces. Council further directed staff to facilitate the involvement
of the -Tree Guild conceming the issue of tree removal and protection. In response to
Council concems, the applicant has provided additional information and analysis as
follows:
1. Revised Commercial Buildino Desion. The roof and floor plans for the proposed
commercial building have been rEidesigned (see Attachment 7). Based on
comments received from the Council and public regarding the bulk and mass of
the building, the gable roofs 'were changEid to hip roofs, the siding changed from
vertical to horizontal to emphasize a horizontal dimension, and the Crown Street
building frontage on the second and third floors was stepped back and replaced
with outdoor patio areas which enables a view of the Victorian house above
Crown Terrace.
2. Tree Removal. W~h input from the Tree Guild, the applicant hired arborist
Carolyn Leach to assess tree removal and protection on the project site. Based
on the arborist report (included as Attachment 8), a total of eighty-five (85) trees

are located on the subject property, all of which are proposed to be removed
(see table below for tree inventory). The report recommends that the two (2)
Coast live oak trees and the Canary Island date palm are good candidates for
successful transplanting and that the remaining trees are too large, too
diseased, or too problematic. to transplant. The project is conditioned to
transplant these trees, at a suitable location on or off-site.

3. Crown Hill Turn Pocket. Soeed Humos and Sianaae. The Public Works
Department recommends that the Crown Hill entry be improved with a left'tum
pocket and marking the entrance area with a "keep clear" message. Speed
humps along Le Point Street and speed limit signage can be installed if directed
by Council.
4. Street and Proiect Liahtina. Representatives from PG&Ehave indicated 'that
the City can recommend the type, location and style of lighting, both along the
Right of Ways and internal to the project. PG&E will accept the light standards
into their maintenance system following their improvement by the developer.
Included as Attachment 9 are examples of the style of street light stanqards
recently adopted by the City for the Village area. Proposed are low profile,
pedestrian oriented light standards within the residential areas of the CreeKside
project.
5. Flood Plain Manaaement District and FEMA Floodolain. City Ordinance No.
501 and the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) that was prepared by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) were reviewed to confirm
compliance with .the requirements. Residential development located in an "A"
zone must have the lowest floor elevated at least one foot (1') above the base
flood elevation, exclusive of areas used for parking or storage areas.
Attachment 10 is a FIRM map exhibit illustrating that the majority of the project
site is within the flood zone. Garages shall conform to City requirements and
storage cabinets shall be elevated in the event of a flood situation.
6.' Existina Imoervious Surface/Drainaae Retention. GeoSolutions, Inc. prepared a
geotechnical investigation on the propertY that included six (6) site borings and
a soils analysis (Attachment 11). The report indicates that the site is covered
with a five to twelve inch (5" - 12") base layer and that the existing surface

conditions at the site provide near impervious surface drainage. The fact that
the proposed project represents. a significant decrease of impervious surface
area was assessed to determine the need for an on-site drainage retention
basin. However, based on the "Detention Basin Analysis" prepared by the
Wallace Group dated June 2006 (Attachment 12), it is not advisable to include
local detention basins on sites within Flood Management Zone B (the project
site . lies within this zone). Stormwater detention is therefore not recommended
for the proposed project due to the lack of effectiveness in benefiting the later-
occurring peak flow in the creek and the potential for increasing peak flow rates
downstream as a result of the lag time associated with the peak creek flows.
7. Upper Floor Parkina Garaaes. The applicant contacted building officials and
inspectors at the Cities of Pismo Beach and San Luis Obispo, as well as the
County of San Luis Obispo regarding the safety and construction drawbacks to
having parking garages above living spaces. The response from these
agencies was that if the structure is designed and constructed in accordance
with the Uniform Building Code and structural engineering specifications, there
have been no reported problems.

Proiect Description
The proposed project is a reconfiguration of twenty-three (23) underlying lots into thirteen
(13) lots, and a mixed-use development cOmposed of 12 duplexes, a 12,000 square foot
commerciaVoffice building, and potential conversion of existing structures (two residences)
to commercial uses (see table below for square footage and coverage information). The
warehouse is currently occupied by a fabric store (Chameleon). Primary access to the ./
commercial development is from East Branch Street and Crown Hill and the residences
have access from either Crown Terrace or Le Point Street. Currently, the plans do not
include a controlled entry gate between the residential and commercial uses, as depicted
on earlier plans. The Conceptual Landscape Plan shows rail bed gravel along the old

Residential Plan "A" contains eight (8) units in four (4) buildings with access from either
interior drives at grade level, or above from Crown Terrace. The duplexes are three (3)
levels with individual units ranging from 1,940 to 2,595 square feet. Residential Plan "B"
contains eight (8) primary units and eight (8) second uriits in eight (8) buildings, all two (2) .
stories with access from interior drives. These units are small~r, from 420 to 1,303 square
feet in size (with optional plan for a larger, 1,523 square foot unit). The commercial
structure has three (3) levels with an elevator and two-story parking garage accessed from
Crown Terrace and at grade level. The project is conditioned to not exceed the thirty-six
foot (36') height limit for the Village Mixed Use (VMU) district. The architectural style of the
complex is a mix of Craftsman and California Bungalow. Per the originally adopted 2003
Housing Element (the tentative map is vested under that Housing Element), the project is
subject to a 10% inclusionary requirement, or two (2) units.
Environmental Review
City Council certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the projeCt in
September 2003.. An Addendum has been prepared for the project to evaluate the
potential environmental impacts of the revised project (see Attachment 13). Per the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEOA), the Lead Agency (the City) shall prepare an
addendum to an EIR only if minor technical changes or additions are necessary to make
the EIR document adequate, and the changes made by the addendum do not raise
important new issues about the significant effects on the environment. The Addendum .
must be considered prior to making a decision on the project.
I
The Addendum provides information to the City Council on the changes to the site plan,
changes to environmental impacts resulting from these revisions, and conclusions about
the potential changes in impacts~ Focused issues addressed in the Addendum include
the following:
. Parking
. Traffic/Access
. Historical Resources
. Recreation
. Biological Resources
Section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code requires all state and local agencies to
establish monitoring or reporting programs whenever approval of a project relies upon a
mitigated negative declaration or an environmental impact report (EIR). The monitoring or
reporting program (MMP) must ensure implementation of the measures being imposed to
mitigate or avoid the significant adverse environmental impacts identified in the mitigated
negative declaration or EIR.
The MMP is required for all mitigation measures adopted by the City as conditions of the
project approval. When the City certified the FEIR, the City agreed to adopt all mitigation
measures identified in the FEIR for the project, and the mitigation measures shall be
required to avoid potentially significant adverse environmental impacts. The MMP,
included as Attachment 14, contains the relevant mitigation required for the original project
and new mitigation for the revised project.

Parkinq
Total proposed parking for the project has been reduced by four (4) spaces with retention
of the warehouse side loading dock and rear addition (see table below for parking
calculations). Parking is considered adequate by utilizing the parking reduction provision
in Development Code Section 16.56.050; which allows up to a 20% parking reduction for
mixed-use projects. The loss of four (4) parking spaces represents a 3.4% parking
reduction.

Traffic/Access
The original project induded the property developed with an office building and storage
units adjacent to Tally Ho Creek. This one (1) acre property, which has the only direct
driveway access from East Branch Street, was sold. The applicant recently secured an
access agreement from the adjacent property owner to the west, significantly improving
access and site circulation.. As mentioned above, residential traffic will access the site
from either Crown Terrace or Le Point Street.
In response to concems .of tuming movement conflicts with the Paulding Middle School
AM and PM peak hour traffic, a separate Site Access Analysis was conducted by
Associated Transportation Engineers (ATE), dated February 11, 2005. The analysis
concluded that the proposed access at Crown Hill would not adversely impact the
projected level of service (LOS) A-B. As added mitigation, however, ATE recommended
that a "KEEP CLEAR" zone be painted in front of the Crown Hill driveway to accommodate
left hand turn movements into the project. Since a "keep clear" area would not always be
obeyed and requires enforcement, staff detenmined that a left tum pocket into the project
site would be a superior solution (MM 4.11.1). The road is wide enough at this location to
install a left turn pocket and allow sufficient rooin for cars to pass through. To accomplish
this, the curbs on Crown Hill must be painted red up to Crown Terrace (red curb already
exists for half the distance)..

ATE also conducted a Stop Sign Warrant Analysis dated February 23, 2005 for the
intersection of Le Point Street and Crown Terrace. The study concludes that the traffic
volumes; delays and speeds at this intersection do not warrant an all-way stop or a partial
(two-way) stop. Staff believes that other criteria (such as sight distance and safety)
besides that contained in the Caltrans Traffic Manual, apply to this intersection that favor
the installation of a multi-way stop configuration with crosswalks as follows:
. Since the project will provide a new pedestrian sidewalk on the west side of
Crown Terrace, pedestrians. must be able to safely access the existing
crosswalk on the north side of Le Point Street east of the intersection. In
accordance with the requirements of Municipal Code Section 6-02.12,
crosswalks shall be installed on the west and northern legs of the intersection
to discourage pedestrians from crossing Crown Terrace on the south side of
the intersection. City will not allow crosswalks to be installed at uncontrolled
intersections.
. There are also considerations for traffic circulation due to the offset geometry
. of Crown Terrace entering Le Point Street. The centerlines of the northern
and southern legs of Crown Terrace are offset by approximately 50 feet. The
Caltrans Highway Design Manual Section 403.3 also discourages roadways
entering intersections at an angle skewed more than 300. The current
configuration of the northbound lane of Crown Terrace enters the intersection
at an approximate 500 angle. The northbound lane must be reconfigured to
enter the intersectiol) at a 900 angle. This will enable northbound traffic to
better negotiate the left turn onto westbound Le Point Street.
. The steep grade of eastboundLe Point Street and the inadequate corner
sight distance of northbound Crown Terrace onto Le Point Street qualify as
"Undesirable Geometric Features" for intersections in accordance with
Caltrans Highway Design Manual Section 402.2.
Historical Resources
The EIR determined that the main house has historical significance (i.e. is eligible for
listing in the California Register of Historic Places) and that the warehouse contributes
to the "setting" of the main house, but by itself is not considered historically significant.
The revised project retains all existing structures, which changes the environmental
determination from a Class I impact (significant and unavoidable) to a Class IV impact
(beneficial) and Class II (Significant butmitigable).
A new mitigation measure (MM 4.4.1) has. been added requiring the co-applicant and
the new owner of the property to register the main residence in the California Register
of Historic Places through the State Office of Historic Preservation (OHP). Any change
to the "R3" occupancy classification or any physical alteration also requires consistency
with the Secretary's Rehabilitation Standards and Guidelines (36 CFR part 68) or
technical advisories (MM 4.4.2).

Recreation
The original project included several open space/recreational amenities, including an .
amphitheatre and pedestrian trail network along the creek and throughout the project.
Because the project site is an acre smaller in size resulting from the sale of the office
property, recreational opportunities are reduced. However, the residential component of
the project does incorporate an open space area that includes a play structure, picnic
table and bench adjacent to the creek. As mitigation, the applicant is required to record
an open space easement (MM 4.3.30 and MM 4.3.31). Overall, the project includes
approximately 56,284 square feet (1.29 acres) of open space.
Bioloaical Resources
As with the recreational opportunities described above, the opportunity for enhancement
of Tally Ho (Corbett Canyon) Creek is also reduced due to the exclusion of the existing
office property. As mitigation, the applicant is required to record an open space
agreement and a twenty-five foot (25') creek public access and maintenance easement
measured from top of bank. The creek easement must also include provisions for a
pedestrian trail (MM 4.4.30). The project is further required to construct a non-erosive
footpath to the creek (MM 4.4.31).
PUBLIC COMMENTS:
A public hearing notice was sent to all property owners within 300 feet of the proposed
project and a public notice was placed in the Tribune. Included as Attachment 15 are

PROPERTIES, LLC; LOCATION - 415 EAST BRANCH STREET (continued from
April 4, 2005 meeting).
AssoCiate Planner, Ms. Heffernon, gave a brief update of the proposal for the mixed use
development; stated that the Commission had previously considered this at a special
hearing on April 4, 2005; stated that site access, stop sign warrant analyses (conducted by
Associated Traffic Engineers) and retention of the loading dock on the east side of the
warehouse were discussed at the meeting. Ms. Heffernon further discussed water supply,
stating that measures had already been included in the EIR addendum; the level of
significance may have to be changed from significant and unavoidable to potentially
significant but mitigable; adoption of overriding considerations is therefore not necessary. In
conclusion, Ms. Heffernon stated that staff recommends the Commission. adopt a
Resolution recommending approval of the project to the City Council subject to Conditions
of Approval.
Commission Comments:
Keen:
. He was ready to move forward with approval of this project.
. He would like to add a mitigation that all the drives on Crown Terrace be sloped
down toward the street for safety.
. Agreed with the four-way stop.
. The 25-foot setback should be clarified with subdivision; there seems to be conflict
with the requirements for other projects.
. The gate between the commercial and residential should be an access for
emergency vehicles only and not a through gate.
Parker:
. Is in favor of reducing parking in the commercial area in order to retain the portion of
the historical barn and the square footage of the 2nd building.
. The creek walk/access to the park should be retained; the City should maintain the
park; it should be opened up and made larger (by losing one of the units).
. Commercial and residential parking should be open; visitor parking could be signed;
remove the gate to make parking more accessible to the duplexes.
. Cannot understand what the building materials would look like from the drawings;
would like them to match the barn and look more historic; not in favor of corrugated
metal painted green (needs to look more rustic); ARC may have ideas; not in favor of
stucco, it's too modern.

. The design of the 3-story duplexes is very innovative; likes the density; has concern
that the 3-story may look large; would like each duplex to look individual to lesson
the impact.
. There is already a problem in this area with the traffic; mitigations may improve it.
. Putting in a sidewalk and railing for the pedestrian walkway may make it better;
concern with safety of backing out onto Crown Terrace and putting in sidewalk along
a narrow of 24 feet; not sure how this will work and concern that it will be a problem.
. . The duplexes are very large; suggest the square footage be reduced to allow more
green space and this in turn could eliminate some other problems and make them
more affordable.
Fellows:
. Asked if the sketch submitted by Mr. Balgeman had been considered by staff.
. The site is a good place for homes and makes a walkable community; the proposed
. commercial development would help with sales tax revenue also.
. The Crown Terrace sidewalk is badly needed; the proposed four-way stop is needed
and the proposed curb should be squared up for safety.
. There are negative impacts for the neighbors on Crown Hill due to the size of
project, the number of units proposed and the serious circulation problems as
proposed - one entrance and exit only at a snarled up corner.
. The gate was proposed to stop people form driving through the commercial area out
onto LePoint Street; he could not support the circulation as it was now.
. Pedestrians should have a place to walk separate from the driveway; suggested a
pathway between the barn and Maud's house and a raised textured walkway from
the residential units and out along the pathway to the sidewalk.
. If this project were approved as proposed the result in traffic snarl would be
ridiculous and unacceptable.
.. If egress (exit through the Hayes property) is not obtained and if an easement for
foot traffic is not worked out, the project should be started from square one with a
much reduced plan for the front and rear phases; if the egress is obtained the project
should be modified with no more than 20 residential units; 8,000 sq ft of commercial;
a lower street front profile. This may mean no third story units and no second level
parking units on Crown Terrace; the project needs a card key gate between the
commercial and residential; ingress near the present barn with angled parking with
access out the back; a safe walkway from the residential areas; the rear portion of
the barn and the loading dock retained; garden area between Hilde's house and old
stone wall left as is and because of the amount of asphalt, etc. there should be one
or more retention basins/biological filters to treat water before it runs off into the
creek.
. If he is overruled and there are homes on Crown Terrace there should be no backing
out; hammerhead driveways are the only way to go.
. If the neighbors above do not want street lights, they should be an option.
. If there is a 2-story parking garage the roof should not be open.
. A scale model of the project is required.
. A left turn pocket does not in any way mitigate the loss of egress through the Hayes
property.
. The circulation is unacceptable.

. Tait:
. This project can achieve goals of the City, provide housing options and create
walkable neighborhoods and expand transportation choices. It reduces land
consumption; likes proximity to Village and enhances community; supports Village
. shops; connects people with places.
. He has serious concern with potential flooding even though this has been addressed
in the EIR; he had spoken to Gorden Bennett who gave him history of flooding in the
Village who said that the Tally Ho Creek should be cleared out.
. He read excerpts from the DEIR by Duffy & Assoc. which stressed the potential for
flooding in the area of the project site; read excerpts from mitigation measures for
the Town Center EIR (a proposal on the same site in 1980); he would like to get an
update on these concerns.
. As requested in the April 4, Planning Commission minutes, who is going to take care
of the creek clean up. The EIR does not specify this.
. The removal of any part of the structure of the historic barn should not take place.
. Could not support the removal of the back loading dock to provide additional parking.
. There have been more than twenty public comment letters received regarding
concerns with traffic, driveway backing out onto Crown Terrace and pedestrian
safety - he shares these concerns.
. The proposed yellow curb for commercial deliveries would take away from street
parking for the other businesses.
. The project may be too dense if delivery trucks cannot get into the project to deliver;
he hopes there is room for emergency vehicles.
. Concern about the loss of open space and recreational amenities that were included
in the original project and the opportunity for enhancement of the Tally Ho Creek is
reduced due to the sale of the existing office property.
. He recommended: Reduce the residential buildings in Plan 'A' by one (decreasing
the number of driveways on Crown Hill); reduce number of buildings in Plan 'B' by
one, this would help accommodate the large delivery trucks and would provide for
expansion of the creek area located at top of creek. .
. A scale model is definitely needed before going to City Council.
Brown:
. He would like to see the Commissioner's diverse points of view reflected in detail in
the minutes for City Council.
. Read the four findings required for approval of the project; he could not make finding
No.3, regarding historic resources due to the proposed alteration of the back portion
of the barn to provide parking spaces.
. He agreed with Commissioner Keen's comments regarding the driveway slopes.
. There should be no gate; this should be a relief route for pedestrians; there should
be a "look-back" provision of 6 months to one year; if not successful, a gate could
then be put in.
. Agrees with the suggestion from Commissioner Parker to reduce the retail space for
parking.
. Agrees with possibility of reducing future uses of the barn to preserve parking
spaces lost by preserving the barn.
. Access to the creek is an important issue.
. . A model of the project should be required to provide a level of comfort for the public,
Commission and Council.

. Density: 3-stories is acceptable, but smaller units would make them more
affordable.
. The retaining walls should be dealt with by staff before going to Council.
. Circulation: The developer has made a problem by not having an access agreement
before selling the property next door; he was leaning toward approval of the project
because it would have less traffic than if it was a completely retail project; there is
already a traffic problem in this area.
. He agreed with Commissioner Fellows regarding the stone garden wall, the side
walks on north side of LePoint and the street lights; he was not sure if the left turn
pocket lane would solve the problem and the "keep clear" signage should be
included.
. He understands the neighbor's concerns with this project, but there will be a project
at this site regardless, and while circulation is an issue he was likely to vote in favor
of the project if the right motion could be crafted.
. . He would like to see a recommendation to Council regarding creek clean up,
flooding and good language to take care of the 1 DO-year flood level.
Commissioner Tait asked Mr. Devens if an analysis had been done on the culvert, as
recommended in the 2002 DEIR. Mr. Devens stated there is a study being done, currently
being reviewed, for a property owner on the corner of Le Point and carried all the way down
to East Branch Street.
Mr. Strong explained that flooding is evident on the property; it is addressed in the EIR and
it is mandatory that the new development be protected from flooding or it would not be
permitted; it is a Federal requirement and is in the Code.
Commissioner Keen stated that it was not the responsibility of the Commission to design
the project; the Commission should either deny or approve the project.
Commissioner Fellows stated he would be more comfortable with a denial of this project as
trying to craft a motion to include every concern could leave something important out.
After further Commission discussion, (on how they should move forward) Chair Brown
stated that as the project is currently proposed a majority of the Commission have enough
concerns that one or more of the findings cannot be met; he would like to see the project
move forward in some positive manner; he asked the applicant if he would like to comment.
Joe Boud, the applicant's representative:
. This proposal has been before all committees for over a year with pre-application
review to gain insight and make adjustments.
. He is fine with the suggestion of sloping the drives down; losing the gate; minor
adjustments to the building materials, even though the ARC has already
recommended approval of this project as submitted.
. Traffic: The conclusions from the traffic study indicated the LOS was not going to be
affected; there were no major traffic problems except during school rush hour.
. Having a walkway between the Barn and Maud's house is a good idea.
. Crown Terrace: 247foot street width is equal to two travel lanes.
MINUTES
PLANNING COMMISSION
APRIL 19, 2005

. Unit max count and square footage: We meet the City's zoning code and the project
was designed with this in mind.
. Regarding the loss of the 6 parking spaces and the barn, the applicant would agree
to retain the barn in it's entirety if the Commission would be willing to approve a
parking reduction if that portion of the barn were to convert to a full retail use; losing
square footage on the new commercial building to reduce parking requirements
would be a problem.
. The size of units is directed by the footprint and the garage on the top level, etc; it
. would not work to squeeze down the units; he explained all the constraints that had
. to be considered.
. If City can avoid street lights, that would be fine with them.
. The creek and flooding: The permitting authorities will take care of this; it is all part
of the EIR.
. Open space and recreational usage: Approximately 25% of the site is dedicated to
. open space; they would not be in favor of reducing the units to provide more.
. Widening Crown Terrace would require a massive retaining wall and they did not
consider this necessary.
. They could do a scale model.
. He would like the Commission to make a recommendation that includes their
concerns.
Fellows:
. Why do the "out of town" experts state that there will not be a traffic problem at this
site even though the traffic experts failed to see the traffic problem at Rancho
Grande. Mr. Boud - he could only speak for the traffic report at this development
and they have indicated that the LOS would not be negatively affected with this
project.
Tail:
. Who is going to do the creek clean up? Mr. Boud - the applicant with the required
agency approvals; the creek walkway system if it extends up to Tally Ho could be
created for the benefit of the public; could be conditioned to identify this as a
desired goal; they believe they have enough open space (25% of the site).
. The scale model is definitely needed. Mr. Boud - suggested that the City
incorporate this as a requirement into the application process.
Parker:
. Asked Mr. Boud to clarify if they intended to open up the park for the public. Mr.
Boud - if the City would maintain the area and the amenity area included as a credit
to the development.
. Asked if there was a pedestrian access between the Barn and Maud's Home would
they agree to continue the path to the park if the City would maintain it? Mr. Boud-
agree this would be a good idea for the City.
. Re the design submitted by Mr. Balgeman: How do you plan on putting up guard
rails along the driveways and still maintain visual access for backing out. Mr. Boud-
it could be done without a solid wall and would meet the building standards.
After further discussion the Commission agreed that they were ready to make a motion with
some recommendations to,Council.

Commissioner Fellows made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Tait to
recommend denial of the proposal based on the inability to make finding #2 that the
. project will affect public health and safety.
Chair Brown asked that the motion be amended to include finding No. 1 (as it is not
consistent with the goals and objectives of the City), and finding NO.3 (for historic resources
as the applicant is proposing to remove the back portion of the barn).
. The motion was amended:
Commissioner Fellows made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Tait to
recommend denial of the proposal based on the inability to make findings No.1, 2
and 3.
Commissioner Parker asked if the motion to deny was based on the findings not being met
in the. current proposal and that it does not include what the developer is willing to change?
She would like a motion to state what the developer is willing to change.
Chair Brown stated that the motion to deny was based on the findings in the current
proposal.
The motion was approved on the following roll call vote:

Discussion:
Chair Brown stated he wanted to make sure that the Council would be aware of all of the
issues that the Commission had concerns with. Commissioner Keen asked if more specific
detail should be included regarding the findings for denial. Chair Brown added that
regarding finding No. 1 he did have some concerns for pedestrian access to the creek,
pedestrian recreation area and if the terms of the General Plan are being met by the open
space. Commission Fellows stated that he had not made specific mention in finding No. 1
that the lack of bio-filtration of run off water as one of the concerns for public health and
taking off the back of the barn (finding 1 & 3).
Chair Brown made a motion that the project could meet the findings if the following
issues were dealt with:
1. The driveways on Crown Terrace should be level or down sloped to the street.
2. The barn should be preserved in its entirety with net loss of three parking spaces
and include a parking reduction for the barn or reduction in the proposed retail
space to accommodate the loss of three parking spaces.
3. Provide public access to creek and park open space area. .
4. There should be no gate, but have a "look back" provision to reassess after one
year. Enough space should be left if it is determined that a gate is necessary at
a later date.
5. The building design, height and materials should go back to ARC and Planning
Commission before issuance of a building permit.final development.

and parking.
10. The creek access between the Barn and Maud house should be opened up to
provide a pedestrian path out to the sidewalk.
Commissioner Tait asked if the Branch Street flood study of the culvert would influence the
project? Mr. Devens replied that it is currently under review, but is not for this project.
Commissioner Tait asked again about the clean up of the creek and stated his concern.
Chair Brown said he would amend the motion to state: "the staff report shall include that
some investigation be done as to the process timelines and responsibilities of clean
up of the creek",
Commission Parker seconded the motion.
Commissioner Keen stated he agreed that it was very important to clean up the creek, but
that he did not think it was the developer's problem and felt instead that it is the City's
responsibility. He requested an additional amendment to the motion to include the 4-way
stop and the 3-way stop be lit and one street light in the middle of Crown Terrace (but not at
the same spacing as downtown).
Commissioner Parker stated that street lighting for residential areas could be applied to this,
not Village commercial lighting.
Chair Brown said he would amend the motion to investigate if Crown Terrace could
have residential lighting as opposed to commercial Village lighting,
Commissioner Fellows questioned the reason for eliminating the gate; Chair Brown stated
to make full use of the mixed use design parking, but the "look-back" provision should be
included.
Commissioner Fellows stated circulation is a huge problem, fewer units will not help, there
is lack of a biological filter for drainage to the creek and where Crown Hill stops at Branch
Street there should be a crosswalk, with' or without the project.

Ann Balaeman, Le Point Street, referred to the letter she wrote to the Planning Commission
which included 37 signatures of her neighbors opposing the scope of the project as it relates to
traffic and safety impacts, and asked the Council to visit the site and walk the streets surrounding
the project site.
Barbara Freel, Le Point Street, referred to the proposed island along Crown Terrace and
expressed concerns that it will be all concrete without any landscaping. She stated she was
unhappy with the trees along Crown Terrace being removed and also expressed concern with
lighting generated from the project and its impact to the residences.
Camav Arad, owner of Chameleon Fabrics on E. Branch Street, rebutted some of Mr. Boud's
comments regarding redesign of the project; that the barn was retained (the barn was sold); and
stated that not all of the Planning Commission's suggestions were addressed, including design
materials for the commercial building and creekside access. She referred to the roofline of the
proposed commercial building and objected to the metal roof. She noted that the design of the
commercial portion should be cute, charming, and character driven to attract shoppers.
Steve Ross, Garden Street, commented that the project had gone through the ARC and was
reviewed by people who were familiar with the Cityscape; believed that the project is outside the
strictest area of architecture that would include the Village Core and is in the Village Mixed Use
area as far as zoning. He said if the City intends to provide affordable workforce housing,
projects like this within the core of the City is where it should be provided. He said he did not
believe this project takes away from the rural feel of the City. He stated that the project should
follow the City's guidelines.
Jacklin Pontarelli, Le Point Street, said there is a unique opportunity in the Village to provide a
project that will benefit the citizens, merchants, and visitors. She spoke of the need to include
businesses that will attract visitors and that those businesses have adequate parking.
Howard Mankins, Hillcrest Drive resident and owner of several businesses in the Village, stated
he has lived here all his life and has watched the changes in the City. He said there is more to
being for or against a project; what is good for the City is what counts. He commented on the
water supply issue. He stated it was important for the Council to consider a project that brings in
sales tax, offers some workforce housing, and stated that projects cannot economically assume
all of the mistakes made around it. He noted that the Village Improvement Association
supported this project and that this project would be good for the Village. He supported the
proposed project.
Grea Moore, Village business owner and member of the Village Improvement Association, spoke
in support of the project. He pointed out the project is compatible with the area and is a nice
addition to the Village, provides a live/work environment, and noted that residents could walk to
the Village for services.
Richard DeBlauw, property owner/applicant, stated that retired people who are interested in the
project have contacted him. He spoke in support of the project.
Susan Flores, E. Branch Street, stated that she sees potential for this project; noted that the
developer is a long time resident of the City; commented that Crown Hill needs to be opened up;
and more sidewalks are needed for the kids. She supported the project as proposed.
John Gutierrez, E. Branch Street, commented that traffic is already coming from other areas of
the City to the Village and he disagreed that the neighborhood would be impacted by additional
traffic. He supported the proposed project.
Mike McConville, E. Branch Street, commented that backing out onto E. Branch Street is tough.
He stated this was a good project and that he felt there was too much negativity surrounding the
project. He suggested that sidewalks be installed on Crown Hill. He supported the project and
encouraged the Council to provide the applicant with clear direction.

Michael Bondello, McKinley, acknowledged that the City Council is very concerned with the
details of the project as well as the neighborhood's concerns. He spoke about the existing traffic
problems near Crown Hill and stated that this project will exacerbate the problem.
Ann Balqeman, Le Point Street, noted that the addresses of those who spoke in favor of the
project are not directly impacted and do not live in the immediate vicinity of the project.
. Joe Boud, applicant's representative, responded to public comments and spoke of the traffic
studies that have been conducted and the level of service impacts. He also clarified that his
reference to a redesign of the project was from the original 35,000 square foot shopping center
to this proposed mixed-use project of 24 residential units and a 12,000 square foot commercial
building. He encouraged approval of the project.
Hearing no further public comments, Mayor Ferrara closed the public hearing.
Council Member Arnold stated one of his concerns was the access through the west side of the
property. He stated he could not support the project until that access is granted. He addressed
: the circulation issue; referred to the trees on Crown Terrace and suggested a way to save them;
expressed concern with regard to the scale of the commercial building; requested story poles on
the site; and concluded by stating that most of the issues could be resolved and this could be a
good project. He reiterated that access to the west side of the parcel is critical.
Council Member Guthrie asked questions of the traffic engineer regarding Crown Hill and E.
Branch. Mr. Dan Dawson replied that detailed studies, traffic, and pedestrian counts were
conducted during a.m. and p.m. peak hours. Council Member Guthrie stated that he believes
commercial use generates more traffic than residential; that the proposed improvements will
return Crown Terrace to a residential street; the addition of a sidewalk on the west side also
improves the street to a residential nature; and the driveways would contribute more to a
residential nature of Crown Terrace. He stated the net affect is an improvement to Crown
Terrace/Le Point. He expressed a concern about the creek setback/property line issue as it
relates to the residential component. In terms of the commercial component, he acknowledged
that there is a traffic problem at the intersection at certain times of the day; however, the overall
effect at this intersection is not serious according to the City's policies. He shared concerns with
the proposed scale/height of the commercial building. He said the addition of a second entrance
on E. Branch is important and would improve the traffic congestion at Crown Hill and E. Branch.
He concluded by stating that he would need clarification on the creek setback to ensure that
houses are not being built within the creek setback, and agreed that the project needs the
access easement for a second entrance on E. Branch Street. He stated that with those two
additions he could support the project as designed.
. Council Member Dickens stated he relies in part on observations and input from residents in the
immediate area for traffic concerns. He reflected on the pre-application process which was
review of a conceptual plan and an opportunity to provide input. He spoke about the focus and
vision for the Village Core. He stated that he had preferred the original commercial project and
did not support the large residential component as presented. He spoke about the site and said
a project needs to capitalize on its assets, including creekside access, close proximity to the
Village, and the historic features and buildings on the site. He objected to the size and scale of
the three-story commercial building which dwarfs the existing barn; did not see adequate
pedestrian access or pathways to the Village; and feit there were land use conflicts between the
commercial and residential uses. He stated there was also a conflict between the residential and
open space. He comm'ented that historically, this parcel has had no access to Crown Terrace
CITY COUNCIUREDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MINUTES

" and that it needs to be widened and improved to City standards. He was not in favor of
relinquishment of any easements along Le Point, and stated that future circulation and access
issues need to be addressed. He noted that circulation within the development was imperative
and that circulation must include access to the west. He suggested the applicant look at the
assets this parcel provides, capitalize on those assets, and mitigate traffic circulation problems
more effectively.
Mayor Pro Tem Costello inquired how many trees were proposed to be re'moved. He expressed
concern with the left turn pocket as proposed; the driveway as proposed on E. Branch Street
conflicts with Crown Hill intersection; stated that access from the west side of the property needs
to be in place first; supported the four way stop at Crown Terrace and Le Point; did not have a
problem with the driveways backing out into the street; noted that lighting impacts are mitigated
and should not create a nuisance for the residential neighborhood; suggested a one year review
period on an interior gate; agreed that pedestrian circulation needed to be improved; supported
the proposed density and noted that in order to preserve agricultural in the City, we need to look
at other areas for development; requested clarification regarding the open space and potential
impacts to the homes; clarification regarding the creek setback; and stated at this point he could
not support the project.
Mayor Ferrara" asked staff to address the potential for phasing the project. Director Strong stated
there was initially a recommendation to phase the project to defer the 12,000 square foot
commercial building until the western access was obtained. He said the applicant has been in
" negotiations with the owner of the property located to the west.
Mayor Ferrara noted that a considerable amount of progress had been made on this project. He
acknowledged existing problems surrounding the site. He stated that size, scale and intensity of
use are the most critical issues in the Village. He stated he was pleased that negotiations were
underway to obtain access to the western portion of the site. He agreed the creek setback and
open space issues need to be clarified. He expressed appreciation for the three dimensional
model; did not support the proposed roofline of the commercial building; stated that the
commercial building needs to blend in better with the barn; supported the concept of "less
verticality, more horizontality" and stated it needed to be softened and/or flattened. He liked the
idea of phasing of the project overall for circulation purposes and stressed the need for a
manageable circulation segment. He had issues with the results of the traffic study based on his
. actual experience. He stated with additional modifications, the project would work. He
commented that live/work units are not working in this area and supported the concept of small
residential units, with proper landscaping. :

Subject: Detention Basin Design - Tract 2346 - Crown Hill and W. Branch
Ben:
This is a follow up to our phone conversation earlier today regarding
detention basin design criteria for the above referenced project. The
City. is currently reviewing the detention design criteria for
developments adjacent to the creek to mitigate impacts and has not
adopted a specific criteria as of yet.
Per our conversation, you stated that the basin would be located in the
. landscaped area adjacent to the creek, which is within the 100-year
flood plain. The basin would become inundated with creek water at times..
. . when the basin would need to be in operation, rendering the basin
ineffective. If a detention basin is required, an alternate site would
need to be selected.
You also stated that the amount of impervious surface on the site is
being reduced with this project. This would, in turn, reduce the peak
flows. Detention basins are typically required whl;ln the project is
increasing the peak flows. If the peak flows are in fact being reduced
,
through reduction in impervious surface, then a detention basin would
not seem necessary for this specific project. However, the reduced
impervious surface would need to be verified prior to consideration of
waiving detention requirements. .
Please feel free to contact me if you have further questions.

Minutes: City Council Meeting
Tuesday, August 8, 2006
Page 4
Mayor Ferrara called a break at 8:15 p.m. The Council reconvened at 8:25 p.m.
Earl Baloeman, Le Point Street, expressed concern about access issues on Crown Terrace; stated
that the trees along Crown Terrace should be spared; referred to the intersection at Highway 227
and Crown Terrace and stated it is dangerous to have four driveways and three parking spaces in
this area; favored the installation of speed humps on Le Point Street; expressed concern with
design of garages over the residences; stated the project was too dense; and expressed concern
with pedestrian safety.
Kristen Barneich, co-chair of the Tree Guild, expressed concern over the proposed removal of 75
trees and noted that trees around the perimeter of the project could be saved to provide a visual
buffer between the residential and commercial uses. She asked the Council to preserve the
existing, mature trees.
Bill McCann, Crown Hill, expressed concern about traffic impacts on E. Branch Street at the corners
of Crown Hill and Crown Terrace and requested that the intersection be designed to address
issues. He suggested that methods be explored to encourage traffic to enter the project on E.
Branch Street. He further expressed concern about backing out of driveways onto Crown Terrace
and stated that Crown Terrace should be widened.
Camav Arad, Allen Street resident and Village business owner, stated that the proposed project
design is not the best for the Village at this time and submitted a petition for the record (on file in the
Administrative Services Department) which states that "Any new structures in the Village and
specifically the Creekside Project at 415 E. Branch, should enhance the quaint charm of a vintage
western town at the turn of the century. Strict architectural review and detaiied descriptions of roof
lines, iandscaping, materials should be cohesive with the iocallandmarks such as the Barn and the
Loomis House." She also addressed issues relating to impervious surfaces, and referred to the
proposed model as it relates to the scale of the project and expressed concern that the proposed
commercial building blocks views of the green Victorian house adjacent to the proposed project.
Barbara Freel, Le Point Street, asked that the proposed island not block access to her landscaping.
She also expressed concern about light pollution from the project due to installation of additional
streetlights along Crown Terrace and the north side of Le Point Street.
Hearing no further public comments, Mayor Ferrara closed the Public Hearing.
Joe Boud, Joseph Boud & Associates, responded to public comments regarding the flood zone as it
relates to the elevation of the building floors; the change in size of the retail area of the existing
Loomis Barn and existing business would require full compliance with Uniform Building Codes;
noted that construction activities are addressed in the mitigation monitoring measures as it relates
to noise, hours of operation, and dust control; clarified issues regarding street widths; noted the
residential area density calculation was provided by an electronic calculation from their civil
engineers and believes it is accurate; addressed mitigation measures for tree protection, removal,
and screening; referred to traffic on Crown Hill and noted that traffic counts are not based on an
event, the level of service is based on hourly traffic counts in a 24-hour day; noted that the parking
area is a Class 2 base and is considered an impervious surface; stated that the design of the
commercial building was made clear through pre-application meetings with the ARC, the
community, the Chamber of Commerce, the downtown merchants, the Planning Commission and
the Council and the applicant was directed to utilize an agrarian form of architecture; noted that
further commercial development on the site was restricted due to existing buildings on the property;

addressed landscaping issues; and noted that the street lights were required by the City's
Development Code and agreed to reduce the number of street lights if the City would allow it.
Council Member Arnold provided the following comments:
- Applicant has met most of concerns, especially regarding connection between the existing use
and the proposed uses;
Expressed concern with the size and scale of the proposed commercial use and noted that he
had requested story poles be placed to determine visual impacts;
Thought this was an appropriate project for the site; however, scale and traffic flow are key
issues;
Would not want to see the existing business impacted during construction;
Left hand turn from Crown Hill into site may need some restrictions;
Speed humps are needed on Le Point Street to discourage cut-through traffic;
Need clarification regarding street lighting on Crown Terrace to ensure lighting is contained to
the street;
Explore possibility of transplanting existing trees to save mature trees, or consider 48"-60" box
trees instead of 24" box trees.
Council Member Costello provided the following comments:
- Clarified that width of Crown Terrace would consist of two 12' travel lanes and a 5' sidewalk;
- Agreed that some trees should be saved if possible; 70 is too many to remove;
- Lighting should not be intrusive to the existing residential areas;
- Cannot support restriction of the available retail space in the existing structure; can support
converting the existing residential structures to commercial use;
Noted that the final design is subject to ARC approval.
Council Member Dickens provided the following comments:
Not enough information about impervious surfaces provided: had many unanswered questions
regarding impervious surfaces and related drainage impacts on the site;
Flooding issue still a concern which has not been resolved;
- Too many outstanding issues with proposed project; preferred original commercial project and
did not support the larger residential in this area; does not support this project as proposed for
this site;
Project location is not downtown urban core; property is in Historic Village;
Objected to size and scale of the three story commercial building which dwarfs the existing
barn; should be two-story;
There are land use conflicts between commercial and residential uses, and residential and open
space;
Concerned about lack of fencing;
Access to private property needs to be addressed;
Concerned about removal of 70+ mature trees;
Does not support project as proposed.
Mayor Pro Tem Guthrie provided the following comments:
- Asked for clarification regarding restriction on existing retail use;
Minutes: City Council Meeting
Tuesday, August 8, 2006
Page 6
- Commented on the impervious surfaces: asked what is there now versus what is proposed and
whether staff had reviewed the issue;
- Recognized that Le Point Street is residential in nature and thinks that the street should not be
widened;
- Existing trees were placed to shieid an industrial use; would support saving some of the trees,
however, would not need to save all the trees as it would create a visual block between the two
residential neighborhoods;
- Asked questions about liability issues as it relates to potential flooding;
- Noted that commercial uses generate far more traffic intensity than residential uses; believes
that the residential component provides a transitional area into the single family residential area;
- Supported the proposed layout of the project;
- Noted that access from E. Branch is a key element of the project;
- Proposed traffic improvements will mitigate some of the existing traffic issues;
- Concerned about the size of the proposed commercial building; suggested reducing the height
or changing the fa9ade of the building;
- The Class 2 impervious surface issue is critical; needs to be further reviewed;
- Favored more specific lighting standards.
Mayor Ferrara provided the following comments:
- Referred to previous concerns expressed from 2005 public hearing regarding the size, scale,
and intensity of the commercial building; the need to soften the look of the commercial building,
and to provide a more horizontal structure rather than vertical;
Acknowledged that the need for western access to the site had been fulfilled;
Acknowledged that the creek setback requirement had been fulfilled;
Noted that the drainage issue (impervious surface) needs to be further studied;
Commented on the appropriateness of the proposed agrarian architectural style;
Observed that live/work units do not function well in this type of area;
Residential units would help reduce traffic because of project's close proximity to Village
services;
Tree issue is large concern; does not favor tree removal;
Traffic circulation issues need to be addressed; speed humps and/or signage are important to
prevent cut-through traffic at Le Point and Crown Terrace;
Left turn pocket at Crown Hill is problematic; suggested a "keep clear" lane and additional street
markings;
Light pollution is a concern; acknowledged that new street lighting points down and does not
project into residential windows; requested clarification regarding authority for placement;
Flooding issue needs to be further researched through FEMA guidelines;
Suggested that the applicanVarchitect research similar style condominiums with garage above
living area built on hillside in Pismo Beach as it relates to leaking, water damage, etc.;
Need to reach balance point; spoke of goal to preserve existing structures and appreciates
efforts to develop a project;
Housing will be an asset to the City;
Can make adjustments to create a project to compliment the City.

Mr. Boud commented on the Class 2 base (impervious surface) issue and stated it only relates back
to whether or not the pervious surface or an impervious surface area would demand the need for a
drainage retention basin. He noted that because the property is in the flood zone, it is somewhat
irrelevant whether it is pervious or impervious.
Council Member Arnold clarified that there appeared to be some ability to transplant some of the
trees and suggested that a tree survey be completed in order to determine the status of the trees
and to include the Tree Guild in that process. He also referred to the proposed height of the retail
building and suggested that the applicant consider an alternative design that steps the top floors
back from the street.
Mayor Ferrara suggested directing staff to facilitate the issue concerning the impervious surfaces,
along with the applicant, and also that staff facilitate the involvement of the Tree Guild concerning
the issue of the trees.
Council Member Arnold moved to continue the item to a date uncertain, Mayor Pro Tem Guthrie
seconded, and the motion passed on the following roll-call vote:

9.b. Consideration of the 2006 Drainage Master Plan Update.
Assistant City Engineer Linn presented an overview of the 2006 Drainage Master Plan Update,
noting that the Drainage Master Plan was originally approved on November 9, 1999, it assesses
adequacy of existing infrastructure, provides a financial tool for funding current and future
improvements, and determines a schedule for maintenance .projects. He noted the Plan includes
major components, such as a review of the area drainage patterns, a review of the City's major
creeks and flood plain management programs, identifies drainage policy zones, drainage basin
policies, best management practices for improvement of storm water quality, identification of
drainage problems in the City, and proposed projects to correct City drainage problems. He then
introduced Contract Engineer Campbell to present the Newsom Springs project.
Council Member Dickens declared a conflict of interest due to his indirect interest in the Dixson
Ranch, as it relates to the Newsom Springs project, and said he would need to recuse himself. He
expressed concern with due process as it relates to proper notification, inadequate information
presented to the Council and the public, and significant material that was not provided to the
Council and the public in a timely fashion. He stated that staff was recommending that information
be presented specifically with regard to Newsom Springs and that the public notice only referred to
a public hearing concerning the Drainage Master Plan. He noted that the Planning Commission
had specifically requested that staff notify all individuals that are affected by the Newsom Springs
project, and that had not been done. He stated it was inappropriate to move forward and discuss
anything regarding Newsom Springs until proper notification is made.

Re: The Creekside Complex, Arroyo Grande
, Dear Mr. Boud:
I have completed my examination of the trees located at "The Creekside
Complex". at415 East Branch Street In Arroyo Grande. You have asked me to
Inventory and assess the trees found In the northern most comer of the property,
adjacent to both Crown Terrace and La Points Streets. The trees ara located as
In the area shown on the attached sketch marked "Exhibit A". To further clarify, I
included all trees along the La Pointe frontage from the intersection westward to
the end of the existing paving,

You have asked me to review the potential for these trees to survive
transplanting. I have found only two tree species with good chances to thrive
after transplanting, that being the Coa&tallive oak and the palm.
I have assigned each tree 8 number and am providing you a sketch showing the
tree locations, tree species, and trunk size on the attached 'Exhibit B, pgs 1 & 2",
I found 85 trees within this portion Of the property. The maJortty ate l.eyland

Tree Charact8rlstlcs:
The cypress trees have moderately good vigor, with dark green foliage and very
dense canopies. I found no evidence of insect or disease affecting the cypress.
The cypress along Crown Terrace appear to have never been pruned, as they
have retained all of their lower branches. Along L.e Pointe street, however, the
cypress are planted directly beneath power lines, and have been topped,
apparently by PG&E crews, to maintain adequate clearance from the power
lines.
Tt1e cypres6 were planted extremely close together, about four feet between
. eaoh tree, In straight rows that parallel each street. They are perhaps 10 year6
old. They are from 20 to 30 feet tall and about 20 feet wide. The remaining area
below the trees is not landscaped and not Irrigated, and has a covering of weeds
and other volunteer planta. The aoillevel below the trees along Crown Terrace is
a steeply graded slope. At L.e Pointe, the area below the trees has drainage
channels, making for uneven terrain.
Since the cypress are planted so close together, there is the problem of
competition with each other for sunlight and for growing space. When looked at
individually, they have thin canopies, with many of their lower branches having
died back. This Is not apparent when the entire row Is viewed as a group from a
distance. Additionally, the branches are heavily Intertwined, with crossing and
rubbing branches common throughout.
The cypress are not a native species, but rather are a cultivated hybrid plant.
This hybrid has been promoted heavily in the landscape trade over the past 20
years because It grows extremely quickly. From the time It starts as a six inch
cutting, it can grow to a 20 feet tall tree within five years.
The Brisbane box trees are all very young, perhaps 3 to 5 years old. They have
sparse (lEInopies, as they are growing In the shade, and they prefer full sun.
. The willows are a native species that Is common to the riparian areas in the
Village. They are very old trees. The majority of their major branches are
heavily decayed and infested with termites. Their vigor 15 very poor.
The two oaks are native speeles, and are likely volunteer seedlings ,from
neighboring oak woodlands. They are young, vigorous trees, with trunk
dlametenl of 4 Inches for the smallest and 8 inches for the largest tree.
The cottonwood trees are also native to our area. They are perhaps 20 years
old, with the smaller tree having a single 8. trunk and the larger tree a double

trunk (8" 17"). Both cottonwoods are heavily infested with rust disease on their
foliage.
The myoporum are large tree-like shrubs with trunk diameters of 8" and 10",
They are not native. They are listed by many expert& as an Invasive weed, as
they are easily spread by seed and will invade native habitats. They grow
extremely fast.
The Canary Island date palm Is a fairly young tree, with an overall height to the
top of the newest fronds of about 15 feet. It is not native. This type of palm Is
. popular for Its massive size but Is also reviled because its ease In re-seedlng into
areas where It is not wanted. This..partlcular palm Is moat likely a'volunteer"
seedling, since it is located directly below the power lines, where birds tend to
perch while feeding. It Is vigorous and normal in size and coloration.
Dlscuaslon on Transplant Potential:
A critical question at this point for The Creekside Complex, is whether the trees
have the potential of surviving or thriving should they be transplanted,
The cypress have several marks against them to be worthy for transplanting.
Firstly, they are planted too close together, It will be Impossible to de-langle their
canopies and their roots, except perhaps for the very endmost tree on each row.
Secondly, the existing gredes are steep, causing the shape of the roots system
to likewise be slanted upward on one side of the tree and downward on the other
side. This misshapen root ball will be very difficult to move without it breaking
apart, and nearly impO$sible to find an adequate planting site that matches the
root shape. Thirdly, c:onlferous trees are difficult to transplant because the
amount of root loss will trigger dehydration in the tree, attracting bark boring
Inseot& which then attack and kill the tree. Cypress bark borers are one of the
most common reasons for death In cypress.
Since this species of cypress grows extremely vigorously, it would be wiser to
plant new trees. The new trees will no doubt out-pace any transplanted tree in
growth and vigor. as well as In potential lifespan length.
The Brisbane box trees are young enough to transplant, but are h<!rdly worth the
alTort, since trees this identIcal size are easily available in 24" and 36" boxed
sizes,
The willow trees are too large to transplant, and are too diseased.
Tree AlI_ment Report

The oak trees are young and small enough to transplant. if adequate care is
taken during and following the move.
The cottonwood trees are too large to transplant.
The myoporum shrubltrees are not,worth the effort to transplant, since they grow
extremely rapidly from new plantings. They are available in most nurseries. But
I would caution Using this plant, as it may become a noxious Invasive if it spreads
into unwanted areas. ;
The palm is easily transplanted. It is currently growing directly beneath power
lines, so It can not remain in this location for long regardless.
Transplanting Notes:
Tree transplanting is a precise, complex task that should only be undertaken by
expet1enced profesliionals. Species of tree, time of year, size of root ball,
preparation of planting site, care of tree while boxed, drainage, and care
following transplantation all have a big effect of the success of the transplanting.
Guidefines are available in the tel<t Principles end PraatJces of Planting TfHS
and Shrubs by Gary Wataon and E. B. Hlmellck, pUblished by the International
Society of Arboriculture. Addltlonallnforrnation is found In the articles titled Tree
Transplanting and Establishment Arbor Age magazine June 2000, and
Transplanting Trees Arbor Age magazine January and February 2000.
In general, a broadleaf tree with a 5-inch trunk diameter needs a root ball that is
50 inches wide and 30 inches deep. Palms root balls are not sized In the same
manner, and are often moved with smaller root balls.
At all times, adequate soli moisture and proper drainage must be maintained in
the root ball, whether stored in a box or immediately planted in the ground. Loetl
of roots are inevitable during transplanting, and lack of lIOiI moisture or poor
drainage are the key causes of stress following transplanting.

Conclusions:
The trees at this site that are good candidates for successful transplanting are
the Coas1allive oaks and the palm.
The remaining trees are either too large, too diseased, or too problematic to
transplant. Additionally, all of the remaining species are very faet growing and
easy to find commercially, SO replacing with new trees Is recommended.

OUTDOOR
(our utility company may provide more than just your gas and electricity; they may also be your outdoor lighting company.
fhey can often help upgrade the lighting for your downtown areas, residential streets, parks. marinas and public building
3xteriors. Using the attractive and high performing fixtures and poles on their standards, you can improve security as well
lS enhance the daytime. and nighttime appearanc~ of your community. After the fixtures are Installed, your utility company
. nay.take care of all of the electrical service and maintenance for only pennies a night.
"':::~'i:\il I,f~:!i:';:'
Upgrading your outdoor lighting will:
. Improve traffic and pedestrian safety
. Reduce crime
. Attract customers to commercial areas
. Enhance the appearance of historic distl'icts
. Increase civic price in your community
STANDARD
FIXTURES
Your utility company has approved these fixtures for their standards because they meet their demanding requirements for
durability, energy efficiency, reliability, ease of maintenance and appearance. These fixtures feature high-strength, non-
yellowing, borosilicate glass globes; side access door for ease of electrical service; and fade resistant polyester powder
coat finishes. These features ensure that the lighting fixtures and poles shown here will continue to complement your
community for many years to come.
GRANVILLE ACORN
The Granville is a timeless glass acorn that produces a very wide lateral throw of light. This light
distribution allows for efficient pole spacings and increases light levels on important vertical surfaces
such as vehicles, pedestrians, building entrances and signage.
FEATURES
BOROSILICATE GLASS
High-strength, borosilicate glass is the ideal material for outdoor
fixtures. Unlike plastic materials, glass never discolors or turns
brittle. Also, because the clarity of the material does not degrade,
there is minimum loss in light output over time Occasional rainfall
is all that is required to keep these beautiful globes clean and
sparking year after year.
LONG-LIFE FINISH
What would you like the fixtures in your
community to look like in a few years?
The components of a successful finish are cleaning, pretreatment, and
coating. A seven stage process of cleaning and pretreatment is applied to
each fixture housing to ensure that paint firmly adheres to the metal surfaces.
Following the extensive preparation process, environmentally friendly,
polyester powder coating is electrostatically applied to the fixture housings.
This extensive coating system results in a long life finish that stubbornly resists
fading and peeling.
~EDUCED
UPLIGHT
,KY GLOW
OPTIONS
s populations have grown, so has the problem of sky glow. Direct and reflected
:Jht from streetlights and other outdoor electric lighting cause skies above urban
. reas to glow and thereby reduces the ability to view the stars. This problem has
, lade it significantly more difficult for astronomers to see and study astronomical
, odies. For additional information about this issue, visit the website of the
, liernational Dark Sky Association at www.darksky.org. To address the problem of
iirect uplight, the Granville is offered with two reduced uplight options.
'JERFORATED UPLIGHT
.iHIELD
, 0 help reduce undesired uplight, an
lternal perforated uplight shield is
, ivailable, This option will decrease the
Iirect upward component of light without
;ignificantly affecting the pole spacing
atios or the illumination of important
'ertical surfaces. A small amount of
, Jplight continues to allow the top of the
ixture to glow - reminiscent of early gas
md incandescent light fixtures, In
, lddition, the daytime appearance of the
, .Iass globe is not impacted by this option.
"CUTOFF" LUNAR
OPTICS
The Lunar Optics Granville uses an
internal reflector to reduce the high
angle light output of the fixture, The
shielding provided by this reflector
reduces light trespass and direct
uplight while maintaining the pure
daytime appearance of the classic
Granville. This unique design
allows this product to be classified
as a "cutoff fixture" by the
Illuminating Engineering Society of
North America.

Limited Soils Engineering Report
Loomis Barn, Tentative Vesting Tract 2346
East Branch/Crown Hill Street
Arroyo Grande, California
Dear Mr. DeBlauw:
This Limited Soils Engineering Report has been prepared for the proposed Tentative Vesting Tract 2346
located at the historic Loomis Barn, west of Crown Terrace, north of East Branch/Crown Hill Street, in
the City of Arroyo Grande, California. Geotechnically, the near-surface materials are suitable to provide
sufficient site drainage for the proposed development.
Given the surface layer of imported base material of 5 to 12 inches encountered in the limited soil
investigation, it is assumed that the sub-surface infiltration at the site is negligible.
Sincerely,
GeoSolutions, Inc.

TENTATIVE VESTING TRACT 2346
EAST BRANCH/CROWN HILL STREET
ARROYO GRANDE, CALIFORNIA
1.0 INTRODUCTION
PROJECT SL05829-I
This report presents the results of the limited
geotechnical investigation for the proposed
Tentative Vesting Tract 2346 located at Loomis
Barn, west of Crown Terrace, north of East
Branch/Crown Hill Street, in the City of Arroyo
Grande, California. See Figure I: Area Location
Map.
The proposed tract area is approximately
trapezoidal in shape and roughly 3 acres in size.
East Branch/Crown Hill Street abuts the southern
tract boundary and provides access to the
property. Crown Terrace abuts the eastern
property boundary and intersects with East
Branch/Crown Hill Street at the southeast corner
of the tract. The property will hereafter be
referred to as the "Site." See Figure 2: Site Plan
Site topography consists of a
steep-sloping hill located along
the edge of the eastern property
boundary and a slight down-slope
to the west and northwest across
the remainder of the property.
The gradient across the majority
of the site is at an average slope
of approximately 50-to-1
(horizontal-to-vertical) and
increases to approximately 15-to-
I in the north-central region of
the tract. Surface drainage in
general follows the topography to
the northwest and into Corbett
Creek, which runs along the
northern property boundary.
There are several existing
structures located on the tract
including a store and wood shed.

2.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE
The purpose of this study was to explore and evaluate the near surface soil conditions at the Site and
develop geotechnical information and design criteria. The scope of this study includes the following items:
I. A review of available published and unpublished geotechnical data pertinent to the project site.
2. A field study consisting of a site reconnaissance and an exploratory boring. program to formulate a
description of the near surface conditions.
3. Analysis of the data gathered during our field study and laboratory testing.
4. Development of recommendations and geotechnical design criteria for drainage, erosion, and
pavement base section.
3.0 FIELD AND LABORATORY INVESTIGATION
The field investigation was conducted on September 13, 2006 using a track-mounted mobile B-24 drill rig.
Six exploratory borings to a maximum depth of 1.5 feet below ground surface (bgs) were placed at the
approximate locations indicated on the Site Plan.
The surface materials at the Site generally consisted of light grayish brown well-graded SAND with gravel
(SW), referred to as imported base, encountered in a dry condition to depths of 5 to 12 inches below
ground surface (bgs). Underlying this material, the sub-surface soils consisted of dark brown silty SAND
(SM) encountered in a slightly moist and medium dense condition. The borings were terminated at 1.5 feet
bgs in this material. Groundwater was not encountered in any of the borings.
During the boring operations the soils encountered were continuously examined and visually classified. A
project engineer has reviewed a continuous log of the soils encountered at the time of field investigation.
The Boring Logs are attached in Appendix A.
4.0 GENERAL SURFACE SOILS DISCUSSION
Based on the results of the field investigation, the imported base encountered throughout the Site is
suitable as a sub-base material for future development. The base layer was visually classified as light
grayish brown well-graded SAND with gravel (SW) and ranged in thickness from 5 to 12 inches
throughout the Site. However, in a depression area located in the northern portion of the property, native
soils were identified at the surface and the base layer appeared to be minimal or non-existent. The native
material was visually classified as dark brown silty SAND (SM) and is not suitable as a base material. See
Figure 2: Site Plan.
5.0 SITE DRAINAGE
It is assumed that the existin'g surface conditions at the Site provide near impervious surface drainage. In
. general, surface drainage is to the west and then north into Corbett Creek. Surface drainage in the western
portion of the tract follows the topography, across the existing base sections, to the west and northwest and
into the creek. In the eastern portion of the tract, surface drainage flows west into a surface depression,
located in the north-central region of the tract, and its topography to the north. Native material consisting
of brown silty SAND (SM) was identified at the surface of this depression and may increase erosion
potential. Overall, the remainder of the Site is covered with a 5 to 12 inch base layer, limiting the potential
for erosi n and increasing the run off in all other areas of the tract.

September 19, 2006
Project SL05829-1
6.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
It is anticipated that the existing base material will provide for non-expansive sub-base in future
developments. The recommendations in this report are limited to site drainage, erosion potential, and the
suitability of the existing base material. An additional. Soils Engineering Report is recommended for the
proposed development to determine deeper sub-surface conditions and foundation recommendations.
7.0 ADDITIONAL GEOTECHNICAL SERVICES
The recommendations contained in this report are based on a limited number of borings and on the
continuity ofthe near-surface conditions encountered. It is assumed that GeoSolutions, Inc. will be retained
to perform the following services:
1. Final Soils Engineering Report including addition. borings providing' .geotechnical
recommendations for the proposed development.
8.0 LIMITATIONS AND UNIFORMITY OF CONDITIONS
1. The recommendations of this report are based upon the assumption that the soil conditions do not
deviate from those disclosed during our study. Should any variations or undesirable conditions be
encountered during the development of the Site, GeoSolutions, Inc. should be notified
immediately and GeoSolutions, Inc. will provide supplemental recommendations as dictated by the
field conditions.
2. This report is issued with the understanding that it is the responsibility of the owner or hislher
representative to ensure that the information and recommendations contained herein are brought to
the attention of the architect and engineer for the project, and incorporated into the project plans
and specifications. The owner or hislher representative is responsible to ensure that the necessary
steps are taken to see that the contractor and subcontractors carry out such recommendations in the
field.
3. As of the present date, the [mdings of this report are valid for the property studied. With the
passage of time, changes in the conditions of a property can occur whether they are due to natural
processes or to the works of man on this or adjacent properties. Therefore, this report should not
be relied upon after a period of 3 years without our review nor should it be used or is it applicable
for any properties other than those studied. However many events such as floods, earthquakes,
grading of the adjacent properties and building and municipal code changes could render sections
of this report invalid in less than 3 years.

FIELD INVESTIGATION
The field investigation was conducted on September 13, 2006 using a Mobile B-24 drill rig. The near
surface soil conditions were studied by advancing six exploratory borings. This exploration was conducted
in accordance with presently accepted geotechnical engineering procedures consistent with the scope of the
services authorized to GeoSolutions, Inc.
The Mobile B-24 drill rig with a 4-inch diameter solid-stem continuous flight auger bored six exploratory
borings near the approximate locations indicated on the Site Plan. The drilling and field observation was
performed under the direction of the project engineer. A representative of GeoSolutions, Inc. maintained a
log of the soil conditions and obtained soil samples suitable for visual classification. The soils were
classified in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System. See, Soil Classification Chart,
Appendix A.
Standard Penetration Tests with a 2-inch outside diameter standard (SPT) split tube sampler and with a 3-
inch outside diameter Modified California (CA) split tube sampler were performed to obtain an indication,
in the field, of the density of the soil and to allow visual observation of at least a portion of the soil column.
Soil samples obtained with the split spoon sampler are retained for further observation and testing. The
split spoon samples are driven by a 140-pound hammer free falling 30. inches. .The sampler is initially
seated 6 inches to penetrate any loose cuttings and is then driven an additional 12'inches with the. results
(N-values) recorded in the boring logs as the number of blows per foot required to'advance the sample the
12 inches.
Logs of the borings showing the depths and descriptions of the soils encountered, geologic structure where
applicable, penetration resistance, and results of in-place density and moisture content tests are presented
in this appendix. The logs represent the interpolation of soil conditions between siunples and the results of
visual classifications. The noted stratification lines represent the approximate boundaries between the
surface soil types.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Detention andlor retention facilities are already required in two of the three Flood
Management Zones identified in the City of Arroyo Grande Drainage Master Plan. This
study analyzed the potential benefit of installing on-site detention facilities in the remaining
flood management zone-Zone B.
It was found that:
. In some situations storm water detention basins can increase flooding potential in
Arroyo Grande Creek. This is related to the timing of the peak flow in the creek. It
takes approximately 3.5 hours for the creek to reach its highest stage in the area
along the City limits, following a peak rain event. With the City located so close to
the creek, and so' near to the" outlet at the ocean, it can be detrimental to hold "runoff
back and release it over time (where it can coincide with the delayed peak stage in
the main creek).
· Modeling of typical development sites within the City of Arroyo Grande Drainage
Zone B, and with development runoff detained in accordance with San Luis Obispo
County 50/2 detention policy showed the following effects:
o The effect of individual basins on the flooding potential in the Arroyo Grande
Creek ranges from generally ineffective, to actually making the flood potential in
" the creek worse. Modeling shows that peak runoff rates leaving a development
site are decreased, but in many cases the ultimate peak runoff rates in Arroyo
Grande Creek were increased.
o If Lopez Reservoir is not overtopping, detention basins within Zone B increased
the flooding potential of downstream properties for two-thirds of the storm event
1 development size scenarios analyzed.
o The presence of detention basins within Zone B provided mixed results. Some
basins had a marginally beneficial impact on peak flows in Arroyo Grande
Creek, and some had a marginally detrimental impact. In most cases, the
highest peak runoff from the detained developed site was conveyed through the
main downstream channel prior to peak flood stage in the main channel.
Within the city limits, it is not recommended that a uniform policy be adopted to require all
new individual developments to construct and maintain detention basins at their site if the
proposed developed is located in Zone B. Detention facilities should only be required where
they are shown to be beneficial by hydrologic, hydraulic and cost analysis.
The detention basins evaluated in this study differ from the off-channel flood storage areas
(Alternative 5) and the tributary peak detention basin (Alternative 6) concepts proposed by
Swanson in their January 2006 Arroyo Grande Creek Erosion, Sedimentation and
Alternatives Study'. Swanson's basins were regional in nature while the detention concepts
evaluated in this report are more local in nature.
Other issues related to storm water quality such as sedimentation control and control of
runoff contaminants are not a part of this study. Regional basins serving large watersheds
that require a significant duration to reach peak stage could have a beneficial affect at
reducing creek flooding risk but were outside the scope of this study.

PURPOSE
The City of Arroyo Grande is evaluating how to better prevent storm water pollution, erosion
and siltation, improve riparian habitat conversation and refine creek setback and
development policies and standards in the City's watershed areas. The intent is not only to
better manage the creek areas within the City, but also to prevent negative impacts
downstream from erosion and unnecessary storm water runoff. (City Newsletter:
Stagecoach Express (Volume 13, Number 1, May 2006)
The city currently requires the installation of storm water detention or retention basins for all
developments located in Zones A or C as identified in the Basin Management Zone map in
Appendix A. However, theci.ment policy only requiresdelielopments located in Zone B to
provide a detention basin where the incremental increase in runoff created by the
development substantially changes, concentrates or increases the natural flow of surface
water onto adjacent property, and no adequate outlet is available or easement has been
made for drainage purposes across the affected property.
This report evaluates the feasibility of site specific local detention basins at reducing the risk
of flooding to neighboring and downstream properties for all developments proposed within
in Zone B. It does not evaluate the potential of regional detention basins to achieve the
same goals.
Regional detention basins typically are larger in scale, and are owned and maintained by a
public entity. While local detention basins are often privately owned and typically only serve
a single site.
EXISTING POLICIES
All proposed development within the City of Arroyo Grande City Limits must adhere to
applicable City codes2. There are several codes that related to storm water runoff.
. Per paragraph 13F1 of Section 13.24.060 "Permit application, plans, specifications
and reports required" of Municipal Code 13.24 "Excavation, Grading, Erosion and
Sediment Control", the city requires that pre and post development hydrological
calculations for the 10 and 100 year storm frequencies be calculated by a civil
engineer and provided in preliminary civil engineering report.
. Section 13.24.120 "Design standards for drainages and terraces" requires that all
'site development have no adverse impacts on adjacent and downstream locations.
If adverse impacts are identified, off-site erosion, sediment and flood control
improvement to the drainage way will be required to eliminate the adverse impacts.
Paragraph A of the same section goes on to require that adverse impacts of runoff
and sediment may be managed through a combination of storage, infiltration, and
controlled released of storm water runoff. The developer must demonstrate to the
satisfaction of the building official that the cumulative effects of the tributary flows will
not have an adverse effect upon ultimate peak discharge through a channel due to
modifications to the channel resulting from detention.
. Paragraph A3 of Section 16.68.030 "Flood control and drainage" allows the City
Engineer to prohibit the use of streets for flood control and drainage purposes where
not in the interest of public health, safety and welfare.
WG 0232.0506 City of Arroyo Grande
Detention Basin Analysis
June 28, 2006
Page 3 of 8
. Subparagraph iii of paragraph 2e of Section 16.68.030 "Flood control and drainage"
requires the subdivider or developer provide on-site retention facilities for the
incremental increase in runoff which will be created by the subdivision or
development for all subdivisions or other residential, commercial or industrial
development substantially changes, concentrates or increases the natural flow of
surface water onto adjacent property and no adequate outlet is available or
easement has been made for drainage purposes across the affected property.
. Maintain consistency with the City of Arroyo Grande Drainage Master Plan3 (see
Existing Flood Control Strategies section of this report).
Additional requirements are placed on proposed developments within the Floodplain
Management District. The floodplain management district covers areas of special flood
hazard identified by the Federal Insurance Administration of the Federal Emergency,.
Management Agency (FEMA) in the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) data March 19, 1984 and
accompanying Flood Insurance Rate maps (FIRMs) and Flood Boundary and Floodway
Maps (FBFMs) dated September 19,1984, and all subsequent amendments and lor
revision. Per paragraph 03, subsection Hi of Municipal Code Section 16.44.050 "Floodplain
Management District", the proposed development will not be approved unless it can be
demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Floodplain Administrator that it:
. . Is safe from flooding
. does not adversely affect the carrying capacity of areas where base flood elevations
have been determined but a floodway has not been designated. ("Adversely affects"
means that the cumulative effect of the proposed development when combined with
all other existing and anticipated development will increase the water surface
elevation of the base flood more than one foot at any point.)
" Acopy of the latest available FIRM map is provided in appendix A.
EXISTING FLOOD CONTROL STRATEGIES
For flood control purposes, the City divides itself into three zones': The three zones have
three different strategies which are summarized in the table below:
Table 1 - Existing Flood Control Strategies'
. ,ZoNE'
,.,;.~t~iJ~~Xc:.". , ,'"
Retain runoff on-site or in regional infiltration basins
. ~ . ~ ,'; .~.
Southwest 'A'
Northeast 'B'
Send runoff directly to creek as quickly as possible unless a
site specific study indicates otherwise
Detention basins that discharge post-development runoff and
pre-developed runoff rates.
Northwest 'C'
A map indicating the area covered of each of the zones is provided in the appendix.
Due to the sandy soil types associated with Southwest 'A' zone, this zone utilizes infiltration
(retention) basins and pumping operations to manage storm water.
WG 0232.0506 City of Arroyo Grande
Detention Basin Analysis
June 28, 2006
Page 4 of 8
The Northeast 'B' zone consists primarily of clayey soils that were previously determined to
not be suitable for infiltration basins. Watershed areas in this zone generally drain toward
neighboring creeks. The area creeks, particularlY.T.?lIy Ho and Arroyo Grande Creeks, do
not have excess capacity to accommodate increased peak flows. Therefore the drainage
strategy for this area currently is not to limit or reduce the peak flow in the creeks unless
detention is warranted to keep from overwhelming adjacent properties or storm drain
facilities. The use of detention basins is avoided within Zone B (except when a site specific
study indicates a benefit to downstream area) and that runoff be conveyed directly to the
creeks through storm drains or other facilities.
The Northwest 'C' zone watershed generally drains to Meadow Creek and toward
neighboring cities. Because of capacity limitations downstream, it is recommended that peak
storm flows not exceeding existing levels as development occurs. This can be achieved
with detention basins.
Lopez reservoir provides significant flood control benefits to Arroyo Grande Creek and
therefore to'the City of Arroyo Grande. This benefit is less pronounced when the basin in
full and able to pass peak flows attenuated only by the spillway. Flows currently being
released from the reservoir serve to maintain water levels at a low elevation in Arroyo
Grande Creek and therefore provide significant flood protection for low-lying properties
along Arroyo Grande Creek.
SCOPE OF STUDY
This section provides a narrative of the individual study components chosen for use in the
study. Individual study components addressed in this section include:
. Representative storms · Change in Imperviousness
. Location of theoretical development . Influence of Lopez dam
. Size of theoretical development · Cumulative effect
A summary of the scenarios evaluated in this study is provided in table 2. The peak flows
and time of concentrations for each scenario will be analyzed at the theoretical development
site and at the point of convergence in either Los Berros Creek or Arroyo Grande Creek.

Detent!on Basin Analysis
June 28, 2006
Page 5 of 8
Representative Storms
Each scenario was analyzed using the 2,5,10,20,50 and 100 year storms. The 2-year
storm peak flow rate from the site is necessary to establish the proposed detention basin
discharge rate. The 1 O-year storm was chosen because that is the return storm where the
water surface elevation is just below the levee elevations at certain key levee locations and
above the levees between Highway 1 and the lagoon'. The 5, 20, 50 and 100-year storms
were selected to document the anticipated change in the peak flow rate for each of those
recurrence intervals.
Lopez Dam Influence
Lopez reservoir provides significant flood control benefits to Arroyo Grande Creek and
therefore to the City of Arroyo Grande. The benefit is less pronounced when the basin is full
and able to pass peak flows attenuated only by the spillway. To fully gage the performance
of detention basins in Zone B, each scenario combination was analyzed twice-~ once
ass.uming that the Lopez Dam was not spilling and the other assuming that it was.
Location
Since Zone A and C
already recommend the
use of retention or
detention basins, the effort
to analyze the value of
requiring detention basins
was. limited to
development that is
proposed within the
Northeast Zone-- Zone B.
The two locations shown
on the adjacent map were
chosen as theoretical
development locations.
They represent
development in the upper
and middle areas of Zone
B (the only area where
detention basins are not
already required by City
Code).
T
....... v
Figure 1 - Theoretical Detention Basin Locations
Development
The approach consisted of looking at pre and post development runoff of two different sized
developments (5 acre and 15 acre) located within two different areas of Zone B.
WG 0232.0506 City of Arroyo Grande
Detention Basin Analysis
June 28, 2006
Page 6 of 8
Change in Imperviousness
Pre-developed impervious rates remained unchanged from Swanson assigned rates. Post-
development rates were set to 70% to represent commercial development typical site
characteristics.
Cumulative Effects
Data generated in this analysis will be examined for potential cumulative effects.
Time of Concentrations
A minimum of ten minutes was used as a time of concentration. Pre-developed times of
concentration were longer than post-developed time of concentrations.
Detention Basin Sizing.
The detention basin was sized in accordance with San Luis Obispo County's 50/2 detention
basin policy. The 50/2 policy is to detain the post-developed 50-year storm return runoff and
release it at the 2-year pre-developed storm runoff rate. The 50/2 policy was chosen to be
consistent with existing San Luis Obispo County detention policy.
HYDROLOGIC MODEL
Hydrologic calibrated data previously developed by the Army Corps of Engineer, was.
entered into a HEC-HMS, Version 3.0.1 model recently developed and calibrated by
Swanson Hydrology and Geomorphology in support of their "Arroyo Grande Creek Erosion,
Sedimentation and Flooding Alternatives Study." The model was used to establish storm
precipitation and existing basin characteristics and uses the initial and constant loss method.
The following steps were taken for each storm return and proposed development site
evaluated:
1. Load and run original Swanson Hydrology + Geomorphology Model. Verify output of
sub basins is consistent with Swanson Report. Document the pre-developed peak
flow and time to reach peak flow for the sub basins altered and the reach of Arroyo
Grande's creek affected by a proposed development.
2. Break proposed development sub basin into two sub basins: one sub basin was set
to the size of the theoretical development and the other to the net remaining area of
the original sub basin. Rerun the model and verify that the output is consistent with
Swanson Report and previous runs. Document the pre-developed peak flow and
time to reach peak flow for the sub basins to be altered.
3. Change the percent impervious and time of concentration of the proposed
development sub basin to represent the percent impervious consistent with a
commercially developed site. Rerun the model. Document the pre-developed peak
flow and time to reach peak flow for the sub basins altered and the reach of Arroyo
Grande's creek affected by a proposed development.
4. Create a detention basin between the proposed development sub basin and the
junction connecting the proposed development sub basin to the .net area sub basin.
Document the pre-developed peak flow and time to reach peak flow for the sub
basins altered and the reach of Arroyo Grande's creek affected by a proposed
development.

EVALUATION CRITERIA
To evaluate the effectiveness of detention basins in reducing the flood risk of Arroyo Grande
and their downstream neighbors, the following post-development parameters will be
compared and contrasted with the pre-existing counterparts:
. Peak flow rate
. Time of Concentration
The effects are looked at both within the basin the development is simulated in and as
carried over to the creek downstream of the development since the basis for the proposed
requirement to install detention basins is to reduce flooding risks to downstream properties.
The response at Arroyo Grande Creek will be evaluated over a range of storms. Other
criteria such as water quality, runoff velocities and depth or the capacity of existing storm
water facilities were not analyzed as part of this study.
RESULTS
Detention facilities should only be required where they are shown to be beneficial by
hydrologic, hydraulic and cost analysis.
Lopez Reservoir Influence
Detention basins within Zone B are slightly more beneficial if Lopez Reservoir is overtopped
than when it is not.
Peak flow rates of detention basins vs main channel
Risk of flooding at downstream locations was increased due to the presence of a detention
basin in half of all the scenarios evaluated. Detention basins were most ineffective when the
basin peak discharge rates were achieved before main channel peak discharge rate was
realized.
Development runoff detained in accordance with San Luis Obispo County 50/2 detention
policy decreased the peak runoff rates leaving the development site but increased the
ultimate peak runoff rates in Arroyo Grande Creek.
Cumulative Effects
There were no conclusive trends (development size, basin size, storm return, etc) identified
that could be applied broadly across the area studied.
Recommendations
'It is not recommended that a uniform policy be adopted to require all new individual
developments to construct and maintain detention basins at their site. However, it is
recommended that all new developments demonstrate the benefit, or lack thereof, of
utilizing detention basins to reduce post development peak runoff rates to that of the pre-
developed site runoff rates.

C. Stream and Riparian Setback. Tops and toes of cut and/or filled slopes shall be set back far
enough to prevent encroachment upon streams, flood plains, or channels, or body of standing
water to provide and maintain an undisturbed protective strip between the grading arid the
riparian corridor. This strip shall have sufficient filter capacity to prevent degradation of water
quality, as determined by the erosion and sediment control specialist and approved by the
building official. If it is determined that the filter capacity of the protective strip is insufficient, or
development activity will encroach upon riparian zones, additional setback distance and/or
erosion control practices may be required.
D. Retaining Walls. Retaining walls, when keyed into stable foundations and capable of
sustaining the design loads, may be used to reduce the required cut and fill setbacks when
recommended by'the civil or soils engineer, or engineering geologist and approved by the
building official. '
E. other Restrictions and/or Minimums. Other requirements may also be increased or relaxed
upon review by the building official if he or she finds the deviations consistent with safety and
stability and to provide access for slope maintenance and drainage. (Ord. 537 ~ 1 (part),2003:
prior code ~ 7-1.11)
13.24.120 Design standards for drainage and terraces.
Drainage facilities and terraces shall conform to the provisions of this section unless otherwise
indicated on the approved permit and plans. Site development shall have no adverse impacts on
adjacent and downstream locations. If adverse impacts are identified, off-site erosion, sediment
and flood control improvements to the drainage way will be required to eliminate the adverse
impacts.
A. Runoff Calculations. The approved plans shall show by table and/or calculations the peak rate
of storm runoff both before and after development. To eliminate adverse impacts of runoff and
sediment, a combination of storage, infinration, and controlled release of stormwater runoff may
be required. Calculations may be required to demonstrate that the cumulative effects of the
tributary flows will not have an adverse effect upon ultimate peak discharge through a channel
due to modifications to the channel resulting from the retarding.
B. Drainage Facilities.
1. Disturbance of natural drainage ways shall be kept to a minimum and existing drainage
courses shall not be obstructed or obliterated without mitigating measures installed that have
been approved by the building official. Grading equipment shall not disturb or cross flowing
streams unless absolutely necessary and only with prior approval from the building official. It is
the responsibility of the permittee to secure any additional permits from agencies exercising
jurisdiction over the stream.
2. Whenever a grading operation obstructs or impairs the flow of runoff in an existing drainage
course, a culvert, bridge or other suitable drainage facility designed and acceptable to the
building official shall be installed to convey the flow past the point of impairment.
3. No construction materials or construction by-products shall be discarded in any drainage way
or riparian zone.
4. Drainage facilities, including paved, rock or vegetative channels, culverts or pipe drains, shall
be designed to safely carry existing and potential off-site runoff from a fully developed area

vertically, have a vertical height in excess often (10) feet.
C. Terraces. Terraces at least six feet in width shall be established at not more than thirty (30)
foot vertical intervals on all cut or fill slopes to control surface drainage and debris except that .
where 'only one terrace is required, it shall be at mid-height. For cut or fill slopes greater than
sixty (60) feet and up to one hundred twenty (120) feet in vertical height, one terrace at
approximately mid-height shall be twelve (12) feet in width. Terrace widths and spacing for cut
and fill slopes greater than one hundred twenty (120) feet in height shall be designed by the civil
engineer and approved by the building official. Suitable access shall be provided to permit proper
cleaning and maintenance.
Swales or ditches on terraces shall have a minimum gradient of five percent and must be paved
with reinforced concrete not less than three inches in thickness or an approved equal paving.
They shall have a minimum depth at the deepest point of one foot and a minimum paved width of

B. Notification. The permittee shall notify the building official two working days prior to the
beginning 01 the operation authorized by the permit, two working days belore the project is ready
lor final inspection, and one complete working day prior to any other inspection or testing
requested by the permittee.
C. Right 01 Entry. Filing lor a permit under this chapter constitutes a grant 01 permission for the
city to enter the permit area lor the purpose 01 administering this chapter from the date 01 the
application to the termination 01 the erosion control maintenance period. If necessary, the building
official shall be supplied with a key or lock combination, or permitted to install a city lock.
D. Notice 01 Violation Recordation. Whenever the building official determines that work has not
been completed in accordance with a penmit or the plans and specifications relating thereto, or
whenever the building official determines that work has been done without the required permit,
the building official may record a notice 01 violation. The owner(s) of the property, as revealed by
the assessment roll on which the violation is situated, and any other person responsible for the
violation shall be notified of the recordation, if their address is available.
lIthe responsible party fails to act in response to written notification of the building official, an
erosion problem may be declared a public nuisance and may be abated according to procedures
in the city code. Where there is an emergency condition of erosion or sediment damaging a
watelWay, marsh, other body 01 water, or private or public property, the building official may have
the necessary corrective work done and then bill the responsible party or place a lien against the
offending property.
E. Additional Procedures to Remedy Unauthorized Grading Without a Permit-Finding and
Declaration\ The city council finds and declares that unauthorized grading without a penmit often
results in soil erosion; drainage, visual and other destructive long-term impacts which are not
satisfactorily alleviated or corrected by the usual enforcement procedures, such as criminal
violations or judicial proceedings concerning public nuisances. Further, such grading often
causes harm unique to the graded parcel and the properties surrounding it, and the long-term
correction measures for each such unauthorized grading requires detailed consideration and
formulation, usually after formal public hearings. .
1. Upon discovery of unauthorized grading without a permit, the building official shall, where
feasible, contact the owner of the property upon which the grading occurred, and the person who
did the grading. II the building official and the owner and contractor can agree within thirty (30)
days upon a remedial program which can be accomplished in no more than ninety (90) days, no
further city action shall be required at that time. The building official shall obtain a cash bond from
the owner or contractor, payable upon' request, and a right-of-entry form signed by the owner to
guarantee the city's right to do the remedial program as agreed if not done by the owner or
,contractor within the agreed time period.
2. II the building official cannot reach such a satisfactory agreement, he or she shall, within thirty
(30) days, submit a detailed report and recommendations to the city administrator and city council
requesting the initiation of formal council proceedings under the city's nuisance abatement
ordinance to abate the public nuisance created on the premises by the unauthorized grading. The
object of such proceedings shall be the ordering of corrective measures, subject to the city's
power to correct the problem and place a lien upon the real property for all costs of correction.
For purposes 01 the nuisance abatement proceedings, the council declares that unauthorized
grading without a permit is a public nuisance, per se. (Ord. 537 31 (part), 2003: prior code 37-
1.14) .

which is necessary for. the enjoyment or safety of the existing use shall be allowed as a matter of
right and subject only to city laws pertaining to grading.'
O. Subdivision. In the poD district, where from the nature of the size,location, shape or
topography of the parcel of land, or where from the nature of the improvements of development
shown on the development plan, or any combination of these factors, it appears to the community
development director that a future division of ownership or subdivision of the parcel would be
required for orderly development, the community development director may require the filing of a
tentative subdivision map, as provided in the land division provisions of this title, and the .
performing of any other acts required in such regulation. Where any requirement ofthe land
division provisions requires any specific act of the land owner or subdivider, the approval of any
development plan shall not become effective until compliance has been made with such
subdivision provisions. .
P. Reversionary Clause. Any land classified as a PoD district shall revert to its former
classification in the event that any portion of the development is not commenced within one year

initiated by the planning commission or city council, such reversion shall not take effect. (Ord.
522 S 2, 2000: prior code S 9-09.010)
~6.44.020 Design development (D) overlay district.
A. Purpose and Intent. It is the intent of the design development (D) district to establish
development standards to address special or unique needs or characteristics of particular areas
(e.g., reservation of larger parcels for specific uses in a newly created subdivision, rezoning of
land as the result of a specific conceptual proposal, preservation of uniform architectural,
structural, or physical characteristics).
B. Authority.
1. The city council is authorized to adopt a design development overlay district only in conjunction
with a base district. Adoption of an overlay district shall occur in the manner set forth in this title
for amendments to zoning districts (Section 16.16.040).
2. When an overlay district is designated over any district, the standards used for that site shall
be as set in the overlay district in addition to those regulations specified in the corresponding
base district. In the event of a connict between the regulations of the base district and the overly
district, the provisions of the overlay district shall govern.
3. No overlay district shall be established unless the commission and council make, but not be

plan. Each of the following shall be addressed within the text and graphic illustrations or design
manual submitted for approval and a specific plan.
a. Lot development, alteration or enlargement shall be viewed not only as one or more free
standing objects but also as part of a street, or cluster, or neighborhood within the entire
community. Parcel or lot development should respect existing development, topography, views,
general vehicle, pedestrian, bicycle and equestrian circulation, and the natural environment

c. Placement of the building shall be done in a manner compatible with surrounding existing and
planned uses and buildings. The setback from streets and adjacent properties shall relate to the
scale of the prOposed building. Larger buildings shall require more setback area for a balance of
scale and to provide compatibility with adjacent uses. All buildings shall have articulated roof
lines and fully dimensional roofs creating shadowing effects, physical offsets, and features of
design such as interesting angles, prOjections, rOof overhangs, and other enhancing techniques
integrated into the building in a harmonious manner coupled with pedestrian amenities. All
exterior wall elevations of buildings and screen walls shall have architectural treatment and
articulation of elevation and recesses, which create shadow patterns and texture, and provide
variety to the building plans or surface. At ground level, expanses of blank building wall shall be
minimized through creative use of materials, textures, color and building form.
d. Access and circulation shall be designed.to provide a safe and efficient system for vehicles
and pedestrians. Poihtsof access shall comply with city access regulations and shall not conflict
with other planned or existing access points. The circulation system shall be designed to reduce
conflicts between vehicular and pedestrian traffic, minimize impacts on adjacent properties,
combine access where possible, and provide adequate maneuvering areas. Vehicular and
pedestrian traffic shall be separated thrOugh the use of a continuous system of public and private
sidewalks. Major entry areas shall be treated in a manner which reflects the architectural theme
of the development and is compatible in color, texture and materials with adjacent structures.
e. Parking shall be. designed to minimize visual disruption of the overall project design. Parking
areas should be screened from streets through combinations of mounding, landscaping, low
prOfile walls, and especially grade separations. The design of parking areas shall also minimize
auto noise, glare, and increases in ambient air temperature. This can be accomplished thrOugh
sound walls, screening with fences or hedges, trees, and separation of parking spaces and
driveways from residences.
f. A unifying landscape design which is clearly identified and included as part of the specific plan
is required and shall enhance the building design, enhance public views and spaces and prOvide
buffers and transitions. Landscaping shall prOvide for solar access and for shade to facilitate
energy conservation. Where apprOpriate, landscape design features such as color accents,
specimen tree planting and decorative hardscape shall be prOvided to enhance roadway
i(ltersections, driveway apprOaches, pedestrian walkways, and building entries. A discussion of
plant materials, minimum sizes, number of plants, placement and anticipated landscape budget
for the project is required.
g. Fences and walls are discouraged unless needed for a specific screening or safety purpose.
Where needed, fences and walls shall relate to both the site being developed and surrounding
developments, open space and streets or pedestrian ways. The use of fencing or walls shall be
consistent with the overall design theme of the development or adjoining existing developments;
and shall incorporate landscape elements, changes in materials, offsets and fenestrations, color
or texture in order to screen refuse facilities and prevent graffiti, undue glare, heat or reflection;
and minimize aesthetic inconsistencies.
h. Adequate on-site lighting shall be provided to ensure a safe environment yet not cause areas
of intense light, glare or spill over on adjacent prOperties. Lighting fixtures and poles shall be
designed as an integrated part of buildings or complexes and placed in a manner consistent and
compatible with the overall site and building design character.
L On-site utilities and ancillary equipment shall be located in inconspicuous areas and screened
with material or combination of materials which best suit the overall design theme.
i. Development should relate to the natural surroundings and minimize grading by following the
hltp:l/rnunicipalcodes.lexisnexis.com/codes/arroyo/ _DA T AlTITLE 16/Chapter _16_44_ SPE... 6/2/2006
Chapter 16.44 SPECIAL DISTRICTS
Page 8 of 17
natural contours as much as possible. Graded slopes shall be rounded and contoured to blend
with existing terrain. Split-level pads, built-up foundations, stepped footings, etc., are encouraged
in areas of moderate to steep gradient. The overall grading shall create differentials in building
plotting and shall be used to break up straight visual lines by lowering parking areas and stepping
site plans and building pads.
k. A recognizable design theme shall be established which is compatible with surrounding
planned or existing developments and which is based upon prominent design features in the
immediate area (e.g., trees, landforms, historic landmarks). Variations are encouraged which
provide visual interest but do not create abrupt changes causing discord in the overall character
of the immediate neighborhood. It is not intended that one style of architecture should be
dominant, but that individual structures shall create and enhance a high quality and harmonious
community appearance.
, L The architecture shall consider compatibility with surrounding character, including harmonious
building style,form, size, color, material, reveals, overhangs and roof line. Individual dwelling
units should be distinguishable from one another and have separate entrances.
m. The mass and scale of the building shall be proportionate to the site, open spaces, street
locations, and surrounding developments. Setbacks and overall heights should provide an
element of openness and human scale.
n. Colors, textures and materials shall achieve compatibility of design and to enhance
architectural interest. They should blend well with the environment and not create inappropriate
abrupt changes.
, '0. An integrated sign program or program for the entire specific plan area shall be provided.
Conformity to applicable regulations, provisions for 'sign placement, sign scale in relationship to
buildings and readability shall be considered in developing the signing concept. While providing
the most effective signing, the concept shall also be compatible with the building and site design
relative to color, material and placement.
p. All equipment, whether on the roof, side of building or ground, shall be screened. Wherever
possible, a roof parapet or other architecturally integrated element shall be used to address this
requirement. All equipment screening shall be architecturally compatible with respect to
materials, color, shape, and size. The screening design shall blend with the building design.
Where individual equipment is provided, a continuous screen is desirable.
E. Requirements Not Specified. Development within a specific plan district shall be subject to the
requirements of the district that most closely resembles the use and intensity of use proposed
unless expressly addressed and modified within the text of the approved specific plan.
Determination of said district shall be made by the planning director. (Prior code 9 9-09.030)
16.44.040 Public/quasi-public ~;~strict). '
A. Purpose and Intent. The primary~se of the public/quasi-public district is to designate land
for the conduct of public, quasi-public, and institutional activities, including the protection of areas
needed for such future facilities.
B. Use Regulations. Table 16.44.040-A identifies those uses which are permitted within the
public/quasi-public district. Uses permitted subject to plot plan review are identified by a "PP"
and uses permitted subject to issuance of a conditional use permit are identified by a "C." Uses
not identified in the table are prohibited. .

subsection F of this section.
f. Take action to remedy violations of this section as specified in subsection (C)(3) of this section.
E. Provisions for Flood Hazard Reduction. In addition to the development standards of the district
with which the FH district has been combined and the standards contained in Chapters 16.48 and
16.52, the standards contained in this section shall apply. In the event of a conflict in the
applicable regulations, the provisions of this section shall govern.
. 1. Standards of Construction. In all areas of special flood hazards the following standards are
. required: .
a. Anchoring.
i. All new construction and substantial improvements within special flood hazard areas shall be
adequately anchored to prevent flotation, collapse or lateral movement of the structure resulting
from hydrodynamic and hydrostatic loads, including the effects of buoyancy.
ii. All manufactured homes shall meet the anchoring standards of subsection (E)(4) of this
section.
b. Construction Materials and Methods. All new construction and substantial improvement with
special flood hazard areas shall be constructed;
i. With materials and utility equipment resistant to flood damage;
ii. Using methods and practices that minimize flood damage;
Iii. With electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing and air conditioning equipment and other service
facilities that are designed and/or located so as to prevent water from entering or accumulating
within the components during conditions of flooding; and if
iv. Within Zones AH or AO, so that there are adequate drainage paths around structures on
slopes to guide flood waters around and away from proposed structures.
C. Elevation and Floodproofing. See Section 16.04.070 for definitions for "basement," "new
construction," "substantial damage" and "substantial improvement."
i. Residential construction, new or substantial improvement, shall have the lowest floor, including
basement:
(A) In an AO zone, elevated above the highest adjacent grade to a height exceeding the depth
number specified in feet on the FIRM by at least one foot, or elevated at least three feet. above
the highest adjacent grade if no depth number is specified;
(B) In an A zone, elevated at least one foot above the base flood elevation, as determined by the
community;
(C) In all other zones, elevated at least one foot above the base flood elevation.
Upon the completion of the structure, the elevation of the lowest floor including basement shall be
certified by a registered professional engineer or surveyor, and verified by the community building
inspector to be properly elevated. Such certification or verification shall be provided to the
floodplain administrator.
(D) For floodplain management purposes the term "lowest floor" means the lowest floor of the

lowest enclosed area, including basement definition. An unfinished or flood resistant enclosure
below the lowest floor that is usable solely for parking of vehicles, building access or storage in
an area other than a basement area, is not considered a building's lowest floor provided it
conforms to applicable non-elevation design requirements, including, but not limited to:
(1) The floodproofing standard, in subsection (E)(1)(c)Qii) of this section;
(2) The anchoring standards in subsection (E)(1) of this section;
(3) The construction materials and methods standards in subsection (E)(1)(b) of this section;
(4) The standards for utilities in subsection (E)(2) of this section.
ii. Nonresidential construction, new or substantial improvement, shall either be elevated to
conform with subsection (E)(1)(c) of this section or together with attendant utility and sanitary
facilities;
(A) Be flood proofed, below the elevation recommended under subsection (E)(1)(C)Q) of this
section so that the structure is watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of
water; ./
(B) Have structural components capable of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and
effects of buoyancy; and
(C) Be certified by a registered professional engineer or architect that the standards of this
subsection are satisfied. Such certification shall be provided to the floodplain administrator.
iii. All new construction and substantial improvement with fully enclosed areas below the lowest
floor (excluding basements) that are usable solely for parking of vehicles, building access or
storage, and which are subject to flooding, shall be designed to automatically equalize
hydrostatic flood forces on exterior walls by allowing for the entry and exit of floodwater. Designs
for meeting this requirement must exceed the following minimum criteria:
(A) Be certified by a registered professional engineer or architect; or
(B) Have a minimum of two openings having a total net area of.not less than one square inch for
every square foot of enclosed area subject to flooding. The bottom of all openings shall be no
higher than one foot above grade. Openings may be equipped with screens, louvers, valves or
other coverings or devices provided that they permit the automatic entry and exit of floodwater.
iv. Manufactured homes shall also meet the standards in subsection (E)(4) of this section.
2. Standards for Utilities.
a. All new and replacement water supply and sanitary sewage systems shall be designed to
minimize or eliminate:
i. Infiltration of flood waters into the systems; and
ii. Discharge from the systems into flood waters.
b. On-site waste disposal systems shall be located to avoid impairment to them, or contamination
from them during flooding.
3. Standards for Subdivisions.
a. All preliminary subdivision proposals shall identify the flood hazard area and the elevation of
the base flood.
b. All subdivision plans within special flood hazard areas will provide the elevation of proposed
structure(s) and pad(s). If the site is filled above the base flood elevation, the lowest first floor and
pad elevations shall be certified by a registered professional engineer or surveyor and provided
to the floodplain administrator.
c. All subdivision proposals shall be consistent with the need to minimize flood damage.
d. All subdivision proposals shall have public utilities and facilities such as sewer, gas, electrical
and water systems located and constructed to minimize flood damage.
e. All subdivisions shall provide adequate drainage to reduce exposure to flood hazards.
4. Standards for Manufactured Homes.
a. All manufactured homes that are placed or substantially improved within Zones A1-30, AH,
and AR on the community's Flood Insurance Rate Map, on sites located:
http://municipalcodes.lexisnexis.com/codes/arroyo/''pA T AlT1TLE 16/Chapter _16_44_ SPE... 6/2/2006
Chapter 16.44 SPECIAL DISTRICTS
Page IS of 17
i. Outside of a manufactured home park or subdivisions;
ii. In a new manufactured home park or subdivision;
iii. In an expansion to an existing manufactured home park or subdivision; or
iv. In an existing manufactured home park or subdivision on a site upon which a manufactured
home has incurred substantial damage as the result of a flood, shall be elevated on a permanent
foundation such that the lowest floor of the manufactured home is elevated at least one foot
above the base flood elevation, and shall be securely fastened to an adequately anchored
foundation system to resist flotation collapse and lateral movement.
b. All manufactured homes to be placed or substantially improved on sites in an existing
manufactured home park or subdivision within Zones A 1-30, AH, AR on the community's Flood
Insurance Rate Map that are not subject to the provisions of subsection (E)(4)(a) of this section
will be securely fastened to an adequately anchored foundation system to resist foundation
collapse'and lateral movement, and will be elevated so that either the: ,
i. Lowest floor of the manufactured home is at least one foot above the base flood elevation; or
ii. Manufactured home chassis is supported by reinforced piers or other foundation elements of at
least equivalent strength that are no less than thirty-six (36) inches in height above grade.
5. Standards For Recreational Vehicles.
a. All recreational vehicles placed on sites within Zones A1-30, AH and AR on the community's
Flood Insurance Rate Map will either:
i. Be on the site for fewer than one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days, and be fully licensed
and ready for highway use. A recreational vehicle is ready for highway use if it is on its wheels or
jacking system, is attached to the site only by quick disconnect type utilities and security devices,
and has no permanently attached additions; or '
ii. Meet the permit requirements of subsection D of this section and the elevation and anchoring
requirements for manufactured homes in subsection (E)(4)(a) ofthis section. 6. Floodways.
Located within areas of special flood hazard established in subsection (C)(2) of this section are
areas designated as floodways. Since the floodway is an extremely hazardous area due to the
velocity of flood waters which carry debrts, potential projectiles, and erosion potential, the
following provisions apply:
a. Prohibit encroachments, including fill, new construction, substantial improvement, and other
new development unless certification by a registered professional engineer or architect is
provided demonstrating that encroachments shall not result in any increase in the base flood
elevation during the occurrence of the base flood discharge.
b. If subsection (E)(6)(a) of this section is satisfled, all new construction, substantial
improvement, and other proposed new development shall comply with all other applicable flood
hazard reduction provisions of subsection E of this section.
F. Variances and Appeals.
1. The planning commission of the city shall hear and decide appeals and requests for variances
from the requirements of this section.
2. The planning commission shall hear and decide appeals regarding any decision or
determination made by the floodplain administrator in the enforcement or administration of this
section may be appealed to the city council.
3. The variance criteria set forth in this section are based on the general principle that variances
pertain to a piece of property and are not personal in nature. A variance may be granted for a
parcel of property with physical characteristics so unusual that complying with the requirements
of this section would create an exceptional hardship to the applicant or the surrounding property
owners. The characteristics must be unique to the property and not be shared by adjacent
parcels. The unique characteristic must pertain to the land itself, not to the structure, its
inhabitants, or the property owners.
4. Review of Variance Requests. In passing upon requests for variances, the planning
commission shall consider all technical evaluations, all relevant factors, standards specified in
other sections of this section, and the:
a. Danger that materials may be swept onto other lands to the injury of others;
http://municipalcodes.lexisnexis.com/codes/arroyo/_DA T AlTITLEI6/Chapter _16_44_ SPE... 6/2/2006
Chapter 16.44 SPECIAL DISTRICTS
Page 16 of 17
,
i,
b. Danger of life and property due to flooding or erosion damage;
c. Susceptibility of the proposed facility and its contents to flood damage and the effect of such
damage on the existing individual owner and future owners of the property;
d. Importance of the services provided by the proposed facility to the community;
e. Necessity to the facility of a waterfront location, where applicable;
f. Availability of alternative locations for the proposed use which are not subject to flooding or
erosion damage;
g. Compatibility of the proposed use with existing and anticipated development;
h. Relationship of the proposed use to the comprehensive plan and floodplain management
program for that area;
i. Safety of access to the, property in time of flood for ordinary and emergency vehicles;
j. Expected heights, velocity, duration, rate of rise, and sediment transport of the, flood waters
expected at the site; and
k. Costs of providing governmental services during and after flood conditions, including
maintenance and repair of public utilities and facilities such as sewer, gas, electrical, and water
system, and streets and bridges.
5. Conditions for Variances.
a. Generally, variances may be issued for new construction, substantial improvement, and other
proposed new development to be erected on a lot of one-half acre or less in size contiguous to
and surrounded by lots with existing structures constructed below the base flood level, providing
that the procedures of subsection D and E of this section have been fully considered. As the lot
size increases beyond one-half acre, the technical justification required for issuing the variance
increases.
b. Variances may be issued for the repair or rehabilitation of historic structures upon a
determination that the proposed repair or rehabilitation will not preclude the structure's continued
designation as an historic structure and the variance is the minimum necessary to preserve the
historic character and design of the structure.
c. Variances shall not be issued within any mapped regulatory floodway if any increase in flood
levels during the base flood discharge would result.
d. Variances shall only be issued upon a determination that the variance is the minimum
necessary considering the flood hazard, to afford relief. "Minimum necessary" means to afford
relief with a minimum of deviation from the requirements of this section. For example, in the case
of variances to elevation requirement, this means the city need not grant permission for the
applicant to build at grade, or even to whatever elevation the applicant proposes, but only to that
elevation which the city believes will both provide relief and preserve the integrity of the local
ordinance.
e. Variances shall only be issued upon a:
i. Showing of good and sufficient cause;
ii. Determination that failure to grant the variance would result in exceptional hardship to the
applicant; and
ili. Deterl11inatioll that thegraniing of avariance wiil not result in increased~ood heights;
additional threats to public safety,oreXlraordinary public expense, create a nuisance cause fraud
or victimization of the public, or confl.ict with existing local laws or ordinances.
"Hardship," as used in this subsection, means the exceptional hardship that would result from a
failure to grant the requested variance. The hardship must be exceptional, unusual, and peculiar
to the property involved. Economic or financial hardship alone is not exceptional. Inconvenience,
aesthetic considerations, physical handicaps, personal preferences, or the disapproval of one's
neighbors likewise cannot, as a rule, qualify as an exceptional hardship.
"Public safety and nuisance," as used in this subsection, means that the granting of a variance
must not result in anything which is injurious to safety or health of an entire community or
neighborhood, or any considerable number of persons, or unlawfully obstructs the free passage
or use, in the customary manner, of any navigable lake, or river, bay, stream, canal or basin.

"Fraud and victimization," as used in this subsection, means that the variance granted must not
cause fraud on or victimization of the public. In examining this requirement, the city will consider
the fact that every newly constructed building adds to government responsibilities and remains a
part of the community for fifty (50) to one hundred (100) years. Buildings that are permitted to be
constructed below the base flood elevation are subject during all those years to increased risk of
damage from floods, while future owners of the property and the community as a whole are
. subject to all the costs, inconvenience, danger and suffering that those increased flood damages
bring. In addition, future owners may purchase the property, unaware that it is subject to potential
flood damage, and can be insured only at very high flood insurance rates.

section, the planning commission may attach such conditions to the granting of variances as it
deems necessary to further the purposes of this section.
6. Any applicant to whom a variance is granted shall be given written notice that:
a. The issuance of a variance to construct a structure below the base flood level can result in
substantially increased premium rates for flood insurance, as determined by their insurance
carrier,
b. Such construction below the base flood level increases risks to life and property.
7. The floodplain administrator will maintain a record of all variance actions, including justification
for their issuance, and report such variances issued in its biennial report submitted to the Federal
Insurance Administration, Federal Emergency Management Agency. (Prior code !i 9-09.050)

CREEKSIDE EIR ADDENDUM
1.0' INTRODUCTION
Background
In September 2003 the City of Arroyo Grande adopted Resolution No. 3710 certifying
the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the Creekside Center mixed use
project (Tentative Tract Map 01-002 and Conditional Use Permit 01-001). The FEIR
examined potential environmental impacts associated with development of a
commercial retail, office and residential complex on a 3.5-acre site located at 415 East
Branch Street. The proposed project involved construction of 37,000 square feet of
retail, office and residential space in five separate one and two story buildings and
reconfiguration of 37 underlying lots into five parcels. The applicant proposed to retain
the existing office building, relocate the two former Loomis residences, and remove the
E.C. Loomis and Son Feed Store. The FEIR determined that the main residence would
be eligible for listing in the California Register as a historical resource, and that the .
grain warehouse serves as an important feature of the setting for the main house.
Removal of these structures was determined to be a significant environmental impact.
Several of the parcels originally included in the project have changed ownership since
the initial submittal in January 2000. The property underlying the existing office
. building and storage units was sold and therefore is not a part of the proposed
development. The property underlying the two residences and feed store has also been
sold, but is still included as part of the revised project. A "Consent of Landowner" letter
was submitted to the City on September 28, 2004 containing signatures of all owners of
record for the redesigned project. Because of these changes in project design and
ownership, the applicant withdrew and resubmitted the tentative tract map in
September 2004. This created a new processing timeline consistent with the Permit
Streamlining Act and Subdivision Map Act.
Creekside Center EIR Addendum - 2 -
This Addendum provides information to the City of Arroyo Grande's decision-makers on:
. The revised site plan for the proposed mixed-use project;
. Potential changes in impacts resulting from the revisions to the project; and
. Conclusions regarding potential changes in impacts and the applicability of
. criteria that would require the preparation of a Subsequent EIR.
Revised Project Description
The original mixed-use project was redesigned in response to comments contained in
the FEIR. Most existing buildings are proposed to remain, except the storage sheds
and garden barn in the center and east sides of the site, and the revised project
includes considerably more residential floor area as compared to the original proposal.
Proposed is a Planned Unit Development application to construct 12 duplexes and a
12,000 square foot commercial/office building, and retain the existing residences and
former Loomis store (see Figure 1 for Site Plan). Because the revised project does not
include the existing office building and associated storage structures located adjacent to
the creek, the project site is smaller (2.5 vs. 3.5 acres). The Tract Map reconfigures 23
existing parcels into 13 parcels. Primary access is from a driveway on East Branch
Street and from Crown Hill. Secondary and emergency access through the site is from
Le Point Street.
Residential "Plan A" contains 8 units in 4 buildings with access from either below at
grade level, or above from Crown Terrace. The duplexes are three levels with
individual units ranging from 2,000 to 2,655 square feet in size. Residential "Plan B"
contains 16 units in 8 buildings, all two stories with access from the ground level.
These units are smaller, from 420 to 1,300 square feet in size. The proposed new
12,000 square foot commercial structure has three levels with an elevator and two-
story parking garage, a portion of which is accessed from Crown Terrace, with the
majority of the spaces at grade level, utilizing the existing driveway to Crown Hill Street
near the East Branch Street intersection.

Requirements for Preparation of an Addendum
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) provides for the preparation of an
Addendum to a Final EIR. Section 15164 of CEQA states in part,
"(a) The lead agency or responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously
certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions
described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred"
CEQA Section 15162 requires preparation of a Subsequent EIR in the following cases:
(1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major
revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of
new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of
previously identified significant effects;

(2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the
project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or
Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental
effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant
effects; or
(3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not
have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the
previous EIR was certified as complete or the Negative Declaration was adopted,
shows any of the following:
(A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the
previous EIR or negative declaration;
(8) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe'
than shown in the previous EIR;
(C) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible
would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more
significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to
adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
(D) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from
those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or
more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents
decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative. //
None of the provisions of CEQA Section 15162 apply to the amended project, and
therefore an Addendum (rather than a Subsequent EIR) has been prepared.
Pursuant to CEQA Section 15164(c):
':4n addendum need not be circulated for public review but can be included in or
attached to the Final EIR or adopted negative declaration. //
This Addendum has therefore not been circulated for public review, but is provided as
an attachment to the Final EIR.
2.0 ENVIRONMENTAL ANAL YSISOF MINOR PROJECT MODIFICATIONS
Proposed Environmental Determination
Upon review and comparison of the proposed project and original submittal evaluated
by the EIR, several minor modifications and refinements have been made. As
previously noted, the project description information presented in this Addendum relate
only to changes in the land use composition and physical layout of the site. These
changes could result in positive and/or negative effects related to the following areas
examined in the Final EIR:
Creekside Center EIR Addendum - 5 -
. Land Use
. Parking
. Historical Resources
. Recreation
. Biological Resources
The proposed changes would not result in any changes to the conclusions reached from
the previously certified EIR, nor would there be a substantial increase in the severity of
previously identified significant effects. Also, no new information of substantial
. importance is known to exist that was not known or could not have been known at the
time of the previous EIR. .
The following analysis identifies the minor changes made to the project plans and
design as compared to the original submittal evaluated by the EIR, and explains why
the change is considered minor.
Modification #1: Land Uses. As previously noted, the original project would have
removed the two former Loomis residential buildings and feed store as well as all
accessory storage buildings to enable construction of the Creekside Center. The Center
was a complex of the existing office building and four new retail or office buildings
containing approximately 31,000 gross floor area, with one building also proposing four
residential units. This project would have involved significant unavoidable impacts to
the existing buildings including the historic resources identified in the certified EIR.
The revised project retains the historic resources for potential restoration or reuse and
eliminates only accessory structures behind and to the east of the existing houses and
former feed store to enable 12,000 square feet of new retail/office building and the 12
duplex residential buildings. The revised Creekside Complex is a mixed-use planned
unit development that is approximately one-third commercial/office and two-thirds
residential, including 24 dwelling units.
Modification #2: Parking. The revised project has different parking requirements
than the original project because of the increased number of residential units.
However, there is no change to the number of deficient parking spaces.
Analvsis: The current project complies with Development Code calculations for
residential and commercial parking utilizing a 3.4% parking reduction, allowable for
mixed-use projects. Net residential parking has a deficit of one (1) guest space and net
commercial parking has a deficit of three (3) spaces. The Development Code (Section
16.56.050) allows up to a 20% parking reduction for mixed-use projects, which is more
than adequate for the proposed project. The original project was deficient by a total of
four (4) parking spaces as well. The proposed parking would accommodate the project
demands using the shared parking scenario described in the EIR. No new impacts
would result from the revised parking configuration and no additional mitigation is
necessary.
Creekside Center EIR Addendum - 6 -
Modification #3: Historical Resources. The existing former Loomis houses and
feed store structures are proposed to remain, including the main house, which the EIR
has determined to be a potentially significant historic resource eligible for listing in the
California Register of Historic Places.
Analysis #3: The revised project retains all existing historic resource structures and
related setting, which changes this environmental determination from a Class I impact
(significant and unavoidable) to a Class IV impact (beneficial) and Class II (Significant
but mitigable).
Retention of these existing structures requires certain mitigation measures be added
that were discussed in the EIR but did not apply, because the single historical resource
on the project site, the main house, was proposed to be demolished. Subsequently, the
applicant sold the property containing the historical resource without adequate and
legally enforceable restrictions or conditions to ensure long-term preservation of the
property's historic significance.
Mitigation Measure 4.4.1 has been added requiring the new owner of the property to
register the main residence in the California Register of Historic Places through the
State Office of Historic Preservation (OHP).
In the event the main house is converted from a residential to a commercial use or is
renovated, any alteration (including restoration, rehabilitation, repair, maintenance,
stabilization, hazardous material remediation, and provision of handicapped access)
must be consistent with the Secretary's Rehabilitation Standards and Guidelines (36 CFR
part 68) or technical adYisories (Mitiqation Measure 4.4.2)
Modification #4: Recreation. Loss of recreational opportunities.
Analysis #4: The revised project does not include an amphitheatre or a pedestrian trail
adjacent to the creek as originally proposed. However, the residential component does
incorporate a small open space area adjacent to the creek that includes a play
structure, picnic table and bench. Mitigation measures have been added regarding
requirement of a trail easement (see MM 4.4.30 and MM 4.4.31 below under Biological
Resources). This does not constitute a significant impact and no additional mitigation
measures are required.
Modification #5: Biological Resources. The creekway enhancement component of
the original project has mostly been eliminated.
Analysis #5: Because the property developed with the office building and storage units
is no longer part of the project, the opportunity for enhancement of Tally Ho Creek is
reduced. This is a significant impact that can be mitigated with recordation of an open
space agreement, and a twenty-five foot (25') creek easement measured from top of
bank that includes a trail easement (Mitiqation Measure 4.4.30). The project is further
required to construct a footpath to the creek that would be stable and not erosive. The
trail must be covered with base rock and designed to be permeable and to avoid the
concentration of storm runoff. The developer shall also plant shrubs, such as native
Creekside Center EIR Addendum - 7 -
blackberry, adjacent to any trails and/or footpaths to discourage use of a shortcut path,
and revegetate any existing short paths (Mitiaation Measure 4.4.31).
Modification #6: Water.
Development of the proposed project would require water for both domestic use and
landscape irrigation. The water consumption by this project would further reduce the
City's remaining supply of available water. This impact will be minimized by mitigation
measures, including using water-conserving designs, fixtures and landscaping.
The City currently receives its water supply from both surface and groundwater
sources. Ground water extractions are derived from seven (7) wells and two (2)
separate basin formulations. Surface water is obtained from the Lopez Reservoir
Project, which was constructed in the late 1960's. Reclaimed storm water collected by
the Soto Sports Complex Storm Water Reclamation Project is also used as an irrigation
supply source.
The City adopted a Water System Master Plan in 1999, which identified water resources
as being a significant issue, and identified methods to increase and diversify water
supply to increase long-term reliability of the City's water service to its residents. The
report assessed potential methods to address the water supply issue and prioritized
alternatives.
The City used approximately 97.7% of its available/allocated water supply, totaling
approximately 3,700 acre-feet,between January 2004 and December 2004. Per
Chapter 13.05.010 of the City's Municipal Code (Water Supply Conditions), this level of
water use is considered a "severely restricted" water supply condition that has not yet
reached a "critical" level. To manage its potential water supply deficiency, the City
adopted a two-phased strategy in November 2004 that included alternatives to be
pursued to meet the City's water demand over the next 10- year period (phase 1), and
identified alternatives that will provide permanent water supply increases to meet the
long-term demand that are most desirable, feasible and cost effective (phase 2). As
part of phase 1, the City adopted a Water Conservation Program in May 2003 that
included:
. Plumbing Retrofit Program;
. Water Shortage Contingency Analysis;
. Public Informatio[J and Education;
. Information System Assessment for Top Water Users;
. Enforcement of City's Water Conservation Codes; and
. Optional components, including washing machine rebates, irrigation system or
landscaping rebates, and retrofit of cemetery with non-potable water.
Other components of phase 1 include construction of Well No. 10 (located on Deer
Trail Circle), pursuing oil field water on Price Canyon, implementing a tiered water and
sewer rate structure as financial incentives for water conservation, and a utility retrofit
upon-sale program. It sh,ould also be noted that pursuant to the agreement entitled
Creekside Center EIR Addendum - 8 -
Management of the Arroyo Grande Ground Water Basin, dated effective June 10, 2002,
the City is entitled to the first 359.1 acre feet of the urban parties share of any increase
in the safe yield of the Arroyo Grande Ground Water Basin; an RFP for this study has
been implemented. This additional entitlement, potentially presents the most immediate
increase in water supply to the City
Phase2 provides various permanent water supply options that include:
. Conducting a groundwater study;
. Pursuing water from the Nacimiento Project;
. Implementing a reclaimed water system;
. Studying feasibility of a desalination plant; and
. Pursuing water from the State Water Project.
3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
4.1 Aesthetics
The revised project adheres to the Design Guidelines for the Historic Overlay
District (the "Guidelines") per review of the Architectural Review Committee
(ARC). The project therefore requires less mitigation for visual impacts than the
original project. No additional mitigation measures are required.
4.2 Air Ouality
Less air quality mitigation is necessary with the revised project since none of the
existing buildings on the project site are proposed to be demolished. All
mitigation related to dust control are required, and no additional measures are
necessary.
4.3 BioloQV
The following mitigation measure has been added:
MM 4.3.30: The developer shall record an open space agreement and twenty-
five foot (25') creek easement on the property measured from top of bank. No
development shall occur within 25' creek setback area. A trail easement is
further reqUired within the setback area.
4.4 Cultural Resources
The following mitigation measures have been added:
MM 4.4.1: The owner of the property containing the former Loomis residences
and grain warehouse shall register the main residence in the California Register
of Historic Places through the State Office of Historic Preservation (OHP).
MM 4.4.2: Alterations to the main house shall comply with the Secretary's
Rehabilitation Standards and Guidelines (36 CFR part 68).
Creekside Center EIR Addendum - 9 -
4.5 Geoloav and Soil
No new impacts are expected with the revised project and no additional
mitigation measures are necessary.
4.6 Hazardous Materials
No new impacts are expected with the revised project and no additional
mitigation measures are necessary.
4.7 Hydroloav. and Water Quality
No new impacts are expected with the revised project and no additional
mitigation measures are necessary.
4.8 Land Use
There are no impacts requiring mitigation with either the original or revised
project.
4.9 Noise
No new impacts are expected with the revised project and no additional
mitigation measures are necessary.
4.10 Public Services and Utilities
There are no impacts requiring mitigation with either the original or revised
project.
4.11 Water and Wastewater
Wastewater disposal is not considered a significant impact and existing facilities
. can handle the increased project demand. Cumulative water supply remains a
significant impact but mitigable with implementation of mitigation measures. All
mitigation measures in FEIR are required. No additional mitigation measures are
necessary for water or wastewater impacts.
4.0 CONCLUSION
Based on the above discussion, the proposed mitigation measures or minor changes are
not considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR, nor would they
substantially reduce or change the conclusions. The applicant will be incorporating
these and other required environmental mitigation measures into the project.
Therefore, a subsequent or supplemental EIR is not considered necessary, and the EIR
addendum is appropriate.

Mitigation Monitoring Program for the Creekside Center
Introduction
Mitigation is defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as a measure which:
. Avoids the impact altogether by not taking a certain action or parts of an action.
. Minimizes impacts by limiting the degree or magnitude of the aCtion and its
implementation.
. Rectifies the impact by repairing, rehabilitating, or restoring the impacted
environment.
. Reduces or eliminates the impact over time by preservation and maintenance
operations during the life of the project.
. Compensates for the impact by replacing or providing substitute resources or
environments.
Mitigation measures discussed below have been identified in Chapter 4 of the FEIR,
Environmental Setting, Impacts and Mitigation Measures, as feasible and effective in mitigating
project-related environmental impacts. The effectiveness of each measure is identified in this
Mitigation Monitoring Program and discussed in more detail in Chapter 4 of the FEIR.
Le~al Basis
Overriding Considerations
The City Certified the FEIR for the Creekside Center in September 2003 and an Addendum to
that document has been prepared to evaluate potential impacts for a revised project. At the
time of considering approval of the project, the City must consider the information presented in
the Final EIR and Addendum. The FEIR for the original project identified significant and
unavoidable impacts with the demolition of historical resources and to the City's cumulative
water supply. The revised project reduces impacts to historical resources to a less than
significant level by retaining all significant (historic resources or important to their setting)
existing structures on the project site. Impacts to the City's long-term water supply remains a
significant and unavoidable impact previously recognized in the 2001 GPU Program EIR.
If a project is determined to a have significant, unavoidable impact, the City must find that the
benefits of the project outweigh the environmental effects before approving the project. This is
called a Statement of Overriding Considerations and it must be included in the record of project
approval (CEQA Guidelines 315093). The Statement of Overriding Considerations is a written
statement, based on substantial evidence, explaining why the Lead Agency will accept the
project with significant effects. Because the project has a significant, unavoidable
environmental impact regarding water supply, the City must make this finding of Overriding
Considerations in its approval of the project. A Notice of Determination is filed after the City
makes its final decision.
Mitigation and Monitoring Program
The legal basis for the development and implementation of a Mitigation and Monitoring Program
lies within CEQA. CEQA Sections 21002 and 21001.1 state:
Creekside FElR Mitigation Monitoring Program
- 2-
. Public agencies are not to approve projects as proposed if there are feasible
alternatives or feasible mitigation measures available which would substantially
lessen the significant environmental effects of such projects; and
. Each public agency shall mitigate or avoid the significant effects on the environment
of projects that it carries out or approves whenever it is feasible to do so.
. CEQA Section 21081.6 further requires that: the public agency shall adopt a
reporting or monitoring program for the changes made to the project or conditions of
project approval, adopted in order to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the
environment. The reporting or monitoring program shall be designed to ensure
compliance during project implementation.
. The monitoring program must be adopted when a public agency makes its findings
under CEQA so that the program can be made a condition of project approval in order
to mitigate significant effects on the environment. The program must be designed to
ensure compliance with mitigation measures during project implementation to mitigate
or avoid significant environmental effects.
Proaram.lmplementation and Monitorina
Each mitigation measure is described in the following format:
Impact:
The description of , the specific environmental impact.
Mitigation Measure (MM):
The description of the mitigation measures.
Mitigation Level:
The level to which the impact is anticipated to be
mitigated.
Responsible Party:
The agency, Department or individual that has the
responsibility for implementing or performing the
measure.
Monitoring Agency:
The public agency that has the responsibility for
monitoring to ensure that the mitigation measure is
effective in mitigating the impact.
Timing:
The appropriate points in time at which the mitigation
measure is to be initiated and completed.
Implementation
The City shall be responsible for overall implementation and administration of the Mitigation and
Monitoring Program for the project. The City shall designate a staff person to serve as
coordinator of all mitigation monitoring among the various government agencies, construction
contractors, and interested residents. This person (Coordinator) will oversee all mitigation
measures and ensure they are completed to the standards specified in the FEIR and Addendum
and will ensure that the mitigation measures are completed in a timely manner. They will also
be responsible for the Mitigation Monitoring Checklist.
, Creekside FEfR Mitigation Monitoring Program
- 3-
Duties of the Coordinator include the following:
. Coordinate with applicable agencies that have mitigation monitoring and reporting
responsibility;
. Coordinate activities with the construction manager;
. Coordinate activities of all in-field monitors;
. Develop a work plan and schedule for monitoring activities;
. Coordinate activities of consultants hired by the developer when such expertise and
qualifications are necessary;
. Conduct routine inspections and reporting activities;
. Plan checks;
. Assure follow-up and response to citizen inquiries and complaints;
. Develop, maintain, and compile Verification Report Forms;
. . Maintain the Mitigation Monitoring Checklist or other suitable mitigation compliance
summary; and
. Coordinate and assure implementation of corrective actions or enforcement
measures, as needed.
Mitigation Monitoring
The implementation of mitigation measures shall be monitored at two levels. The first level of
monitoring is done through the use of a Verification Report. This report is to be completed for
each mitigation measure by the in-field monitor, responsible agency, or construction manager
(whichever is appropriate for the given action and mitigation measure). Frequency of report
completion will vary based on the type of mitigation measure. For example, measures that
require modification of final design drawings will only require that the Verification .Report be
completed at the time of Final drawings are completed and again when they are approved.
However, in-field monitoring for activities such as construction may require that a Verification
Report be completed daily.
Once a mitigation measure has been completed and the measure needs no further monitoring
or follow-up, the in-field monitor, responsible agency, or construction manager shall notify the
Coordinator that the measure has been completed. This notification shall be done by sending a
final Verification Report. The Coordinator shall be responsible for collecting and maintaining
completed Verification Reports. Copies of these reports shall be maintained by the City.
If the in field monitor, responsible agency, or construction manager determined that non-
compliance has occurred, a written notice shall be delivered to the Coordinator describing the
non-compliance and requiring compliance within a specified period oHime. If non-compliance
still exists at the expiration of the specified period of time, construction may be halted and fines
may be imposed upon the party responsible for implementation, at the discretion of the City.
The second level of monitoring shall be done through the completion of the Mitigation Monitoring
Checklist. The purpose of the Checklist is to provide a summary of the status of adopted
mitigation measures for the City, other public officials, and concerned citizens. The Coordinator
shall update the Checklist twice a year. The Coordinator shall update the Checklist by reviewing
the Verification Reports and contacting the in-field monitors, responsible agencies, and the
construction manager to review the status of their respective mitigation measures. A copy of the
most current Mitigation Monitoring Checklist shall be maintained at the Community Development
Department.

Project Mitigation Measures
This section presents a listing and description of the recommended mitigation measures that
avoid or minimize potential environmental impacts.
4.1 Aesthetics
The revised project uses building colors and materials consistent with the Design
Guidelines for the Historic Overlay District (the "Guidelines") and therefore requires no
mitigation for visual impacts.
Impact: Signs added as part of the proposed project may conflict with the existing
Design Guidelines for the Historic Overlay District and with the Development Code for the
Village Mixed Use District. This is a potentially significant impact that can be mitigated to
a less-than-significant level with implementation of the following mitigation measure(s).
MM 4.1.1: A Planned Sign Program application shall be submitted to the Community
Development Department (COD). All signs to be installed on or around the proposed
buildings shall be subject to review by Architectural Review Committee (ARC) and
approval by the COD.

Impact: The revised project does not include demolition of any primary buildings and
therefore no impacts of hazardous air pollutants such as asbestos or lead materials are
anticipated. However, construction activities would produce short-term air quality
impacts. This is a potentially significant impact that can be mitigated to a less-thari-
significant level with implementation of the following mitigation measure(s).
MM 4.2.1: The dust control measures listed below shall be followed during construction
of the project, and shall be shown on grading and building plans:
. During construction, water trucks or sprinkler systems shall be used to keep
all areas of vehicle movement damp enough to prevent dust from leaving the
site. At a minimum, this would include wetting down such areas in the later
morning and after work is completed for the day and whenever wind exceeds
15 miles per hour.
. Soil stockpiled for more than two days shall be covered, kept moist, or
. treated with soil binders to prevent dust generation.
. All vehicles hauling dirt, sand, soil, or other loose materials are to be covered
or should maintain at least two feet of freeboard (minimum vertical distance
between top of load and top of trailer) in accordance with CVC Section
23114.
. Install wheel washers where vehicles enter and exit unpaved roads on to
streets, or wash off trucks and equipment leaving the site.

4.3 Bioloclical Resources
A biological resources investigation was conducted for the project, with emphasis on
identifying sensitive biological resources and associated project impacts given the site's
proximity to Tally Ho Creek.
Impact: Construction of the project may result in loss of and damage to existing
vegetation/botanical resources and species habitat. In addition, the potential loss of trees
within the riparian corridor could have substantial effect on habitat. suitability for special-
status wildlife species (although no trees are currently scheduled for removal). This is a
potentially significant impact that can be mitigated to a less-than-significant level with
implementation of the following mitigation measures.

vegetation shall be fenced and protective wood barriers shall be provided
where these are to be retained.
. Storage of construction materials, debris, or excess soil and parking of
vehicles or construction equipment shall be prohibited within the dripline of
existing trees (the TPZ). Any solvents or liquids shall be properly stored,
disposed, and recycled to prevent accidental release.
. Soil compaction on the construction site shall be minimized, particularly
within the riparian corridor and under the dripline of trees. Soil surface shall
be protected with a deep layer of mulch (tree chips) to reduce compaction,
retain moisture, and stabilize soil temperature.
. The natural grade around trees that are not removed shall be maintained.
No additional fill or excavation shall be permitted within areas of tree root
development. If tree roots are unearthed during the construction process,
the consulting arborist shall be notified immediately. Exposed roots shall be
covered with moistened burlap until a determination is made by the on-site
arborist.
. Any areas of proposed trenching shall be evaluated with: the consulting
arborist and the contractor prior to construction. All trenching on this site
shall be approved by the on-site arborist. Trenching within a tree dripline
shall be performed by hand. Tree roots encountered shall be avoided or

Impact: The project has the potential to result in significant direct impacts to the
southwestern pond turtle in the project footprint (and associated riparian corridor)
including through harassment, injury, or mortality from construction equipment,
construction debris, and worker foot traffic and from temporary loss of habitat, temporary
dispersal disruption, and consumption by predators attracted to the activities. In addition,
the project may result in significant indirect impacts to pond-turtle habitat including
disturbance of upland slopes during construction and the resulting siltation,
sedimentation, pollution, exposure, and reduction of cover. This is a potentially
significant impact that can be mitigated to a less-than-significant level with

Impact: The project would potentially result in a significant adverse impact to nesting
raptors due to increased physiological stress, increased brood mortality, and potential
. nest abandonment. These impacts may occur due to reduced habitat suitability or quality
(pbysical or biological changes in the area), increased frequency of disturbance (I.e.,
noise, dust, vibration, etc.), and increased accidental death (direct mortality). The
available nesting raptor habitat at and near the project site that may be impacted by the
project includes all trees within 300 feet of project boundaries, including the adjacent
areas surrounding Tally Ho Creek. This is a potentially significant impact that can be
mitigated to a less-than-significant level with implementation of the following mitigation
measure(s).
MM 4.3.16: Pre-construction surveys for nesting raptors shall be performed by a
qualified biologist. If raptor nests are located during pre-construction surveys, a 300-foot
buffer shall be established around each nest for the duration of the breeding season
(ending August 1st), or until such time as the young are fully fledged as determined by a
qualified biologist in coordination with CDFG. Every effort shall be made to avoid
removal of, or impact to, known raptor nests within project boundaries. If trees known to
support raptor nests (in past years) cannot be avoided, Iimbing or removal of these trees
may only occur during the non-breeding season (March 15 - August 1).

. Any increase in impermeable surfaces on the property that would lead to
increased surface runoff toward the creek shall be prevented. If the amount
of impermeable surfaces is increased, the surfaces shall be paved with

4.4 Cultural Resources
Impacts related to the original project included removal of the primary house and
warehouse, which were found to be significant and unavoidable even with
implementation of required mitigation measures. Because all structures are proposed to
remain with the revised project, there are no significant unavoidable impacts to these
resources. However, mitigation is required to ensure the long-term preservation of
existing structures that are eligible for listing in the California Register as historic
resources.
Creekside FEIR Mitigation Monitoring Program

Impact: The project includes removal of the rear loading dock located on the north
elevation of the grain warehouse. An historical evaluation was conducted by Chattel
Architecture, Planning & Preservation, Inc., for removal of the loading dock to determine
if demolition would result in a significant impact to an historical resource. The conclusion
of the consultant is as follows:
'While the grain warehouse itself may contribute to the setting of the
main house, loss of the rear loading dock would not, in and of itself,
cause substantial adverse change to the historical resource (main
house). Loss of a loading dock which mayor may not have been an
element of the setting of the house during the period of significance
would not materially alter the historical resource or its setting to the point
where the main house would lose its ability to convey its historical
significance. Because demolition of the grain warehouse north loading
dock would not constitute material impairment to an historical resource,
no adverse impacts are expected to occur as a result of this limited
demolition. In concept, demolition of a small portion of the north, rear of
the grain warehouse, on a secondary elevation, seems acceptable, if it
facilitates retention of the main house and compatible development of
the proposed project site."
Removal of the rear loading dock therefore does not constitute a potentially significant
impact and no mitigation is required. Such removal would require a demolition permit
and ARC review in accordance with 0-2.4 Design Guidelines and Standards.
Impact: Transfer, lease, or sale of property without adequate and legally enforceable
restrictions or conditions to ensure long-term preservation of the property's historic
significance. This is a potentially significant impact that can be mitigated to a less-than-
significant level with implementation of the following mitigation measure(s).

4.5 Geoloav and Soils
The project as revised requires less cut and fill compared to the original project: 590
cubic yards (cy) of cut and 2,870 cy of fill for the revised project vs. 1,264 cy of cut and
2,953 cy of fill as originally proposed. Although there is less site disturbance (limited
demolition proposed and less grading), the clearing and grading necessary to develop
the site as proposed has the potential to cause erosion and sedimentation in local
drainages and is therefore subject to mitigation. The site is also located in a seismically
active region that necessitates mitigation.
Impact: The project site will be subject to severe ground shaking in a strong seismic
event, which could cause damage to structures and endanger public safety. This is a

. Restrict grading and earthwork during the rainy season (October 15 through
April 15) and stabilize all exposed soils and graded areas prior to onset of
the rainy season through mulching and reseeding. Permit grading within
this period only with installation of adequate sediment and erosion control
measures;
. Delineate and describe the practices to retain sediment on the site,
including sediment basins and traps, and a schedule for their maintenance
and upkeep;
. Delineate and describe the vegetative practices to be used, including types
of seeds and fertilizer and their application rates, the type, location and
extent of pre-existing and undisturbed vegetation types, and a schedule for

4.6 Hazardous Materials
The project site has been used for agricultural chemical operations for decades.
Although remediation occurred in 1986, soil contamination from continued agricultural
chemical operations could have occurred, creating unsafe conditions. Because there is
no proposed demolition, mitigation measures are not necessary for public safety
associated with asbestos and lead paint contained in existing structures. However,
naturally occurring asbestos could be present in the soils, requiring precautionary
mitigation.
Impact: The project site may contain unsafe levels of hazardous materials, which may
exceed state action levels and may pose a threat to future construction workers,
residents or users at the Creekside Center project site. This is a significant impact that
can be reduced to a less-than-significant level with the following mitigation measure(s).
MM 4.6.1: Subject to approval by the San Luis Obispo County Environmental Health
Department (County Health), the developer shall conduct any necessary soil sampling,
risk assessment and remediation, and present evidence to the City of Arroyo Grande that
the risk of future exposure of people working, living or using the site is reduced to a level
that is acceptable to the relevant resource agencies (County Health, and the California
Regional Water Quality Control Board, if requested by County Health). The City shall not
issue a grading permit until they receive written verification to demonstrate that the level
of risk is acceptable to resource agencies and that the levels of hazardous materials are
safe for all proposed site activities.
In addition, as requested by the Air Pollution Control District (APCD), the applicant shall
adhere to the following requirements:
. Storage piles of contaminated material shall be covered at all times except
when soil is being added or removed;
. Covers on storage piles should be maintained in place at all times in areas
not actively involved in soil addition or removal; -
. Contaminated soil shall be covered with at least six (6) inches of packed
uncontaminated soil or other TPH - nonpermeable barrier such as plastic
tarp
. No head ~pace should be allowed where vapors could accumulate;

. Covered piles should be designed in such a way to eliminate erosion due to
wind or water;
. No openings in the cover are permitted;
. During soil excavation, odors should not be evident to such a degree as to
cause a public nuisance; and

4.7 Hydroloay and Water Quality
The project is within the City's adopted Federal Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) and
FEMA requirements for floodplain zoning. However, the project site and surrounding
lands are subject to inundation during a 100-year flood due to the insufficient capacity of
the Branch Street Culvert. Replacement of this culvert would be a costly regional capital
improvement that could not legally be imposed on the project developer solely. An
analysis should be made, however, to determine whether structures nearby the site
would be flooded due to project activities and whether improvements to the culvert would
be necessary to increase the capacity to sufficiently handle a 1 OO-year storm upon
project development.
. Impact: The project would expose people and structures to a potentially significant risk
of loss, injury or death involving flooding, including flooding of the Tally Ho Creek due to
project improvements in combination with insufficiency of the culvert under Branch Street
to be able to pass the 1 OO-year flood event. This is a significant impact that can be
reduced to a less-than-significant level with the following mitigation measure(s).
MM 4.7.1: A qualified civil engineer shall prepare and submit a.project-specific
flooding/drainage study to demonstrate that the project has appropriate flood design
subject to review and approval by the City prior to approval of a grading permit for the
project. The project shall meet these standards at the time of site development, including
the following criteria wi~hin the floodplain:

o All new structures shall have finish floors elevated at least one foot over the
level of the 1 DO-year flood or the structures must be flood-proofed to a level
at least one foot over the level of the 1 DO-year flood;
o Structures located within the flood plain must be capable of withstanding
the hydrodynamic and hydrostatic loads (including buoyancy) caused by the
1 DO-year flood at the site;
. The development must not cause a rise of over one foot in the level of the
1 DO-year flood at any off-site location;
. Any new development must be located beyond the riparian setback
designated in City Codes; .
. Affected structures shall be flood proofed and certified as provided for in
Ordinance No. 501; and
. Flood proofing at doorway openings should utilize floodgate barriers and
flood proof membranes should be integrated into the structural design.

Impact: Future construction activities and post-construction uses at the site could result
in degradation of water quality in nearby surface and ground water bodies through
surface runoff, and infiltration to ground water, and may indirectly cause impacts on the
riparian values of the downstream waterbodies and sensitive species. This is a
significant impact that can be reduced to a less-than-significant level with the following
mitigation measure(s).
MM 4.7.2: The developer shall prepare a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
(SWPPP) and an Erosion Control Plan (as required by MM 4.5.3) and submit them to the
City for review and approval Prior to Grading Permit. The SWPPP shall include Best
Management Practices for construction and post-construction activities to control runoff
volumes and rates, and erosion, and to prevent discharge of pollutants to Tally Ho Creek.
When pavement is removed, uncovered site soils shall be further tested for possible
contaminants. Specific Best Management Practices to be implemented shall be
developed based on site-specific analysis of the optimum pollution control methodology
and shall include, at a minimum, the requirements set forth in MM 4.5.3, measures
.identified in the Biological Resources section, and the following:
. The drainage plan shall demonstrate that existing local and downstream
hydrological conditions would not be significantly impacted with
implementation of the proposed project such that new bank erosion would
result due to project improvements.
. The applicant's drainage plan shall demonstrate that after construction has
been completed and the site permanently stabilized, the post development
average annual total suspended .solids (TSS) loadings from the site are
reduced by 80% compared to predevelopment loadings with pollution
control measures.

. Use one or more of the following best management practices to control
urban runoff: infiltration trenches, concrete grid pavement, vegetated filter
strips, water quality inlet catch basins with sand filter, or other appropriate
practices using guidance from the RWQCB, US EPA, or other agency with
water quality regulatory authority. A good source of information on best
management practices can be found in "National Management Measures
Guidance to Control Nonpoint Source Pollution from Urban Areas: (U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, July 2002).
. The plans and specifications for the construction contract shall require that
best management practices be implemented throughout construction. The
City of Arroyo Grande shall inspect the project site during construction and
verify that the construction contractor is implementing the proper erosion
and water quality protection measures. The applicants shall implement the
following water quality control and protection measures during construction:
Performing major vehicle maintenance, repair jobs and equipment
washing off site;
Maintaining all vehicles and heavy equipment and inspecting
frequently for leaks;
Designating one area of the construction site, well away from
streams or storm drain outlets, for auto and equipment parking and
routine vehicle and equipment maintenance;
Cleaning-up spilled dry materials immediately. Do not "wash them
away" with water, or bury them;
Using only minimal water for dust control;
Cleaning-up liquid spills on paved or impermeable surfaces using
"dry" cleanup methods (i.e., absorbent materials, cat letter, and/or
rags);
Cleaning-up soils on dirt areas by removing and properly disposing
of contaminated soil;
Reporting significant spills to the appropriate spill response
agencies;
Storing stockpiled material, wastes, containers and dumpsters under
a temporary roof or secured plastic sheeting;
Properly storing containers of paints, chemicals, solvents and other
hazardous materials in garages or sheds with double containment
during rainy periods;
Placing dumpsters under roofs or covering them with plastic sheeting
at the end of each work day and during rainy weather;
Washing out concrete mixers only in designated washout areas
where the water will flow into setting ponds or onto stockpiles of
aggregate base or sand. Whenever possible, recycling washout by
pumping back into mixers for reuse. Never dispose of washout into
the street, storm drains, drainage ditches, or streams;
Applying concrete, asphalt and seal coat during dry weather.
Keeping contaminants from fresh concrete and asphalt out of the
storm drains, creeks, by scheduling paving jobs during periods of dry
weather, allowing new pavement to cure before storm water flows
across it; .

Guidelines for Historic Districts. There are no significant land use related impacts, and
no mitigation measures are necessary.
4.9 Noise
Existing ambient noise in the vicinity of the project site is primarily generated by traffic.
The project will generate a short-term noise impact with construction activities. Long-
term increases in traffic and other operational noise levels are considered less-than-
significant impacts and no mitigation measures are necessary.
Impact: Existing residences in the project area would be exposed to short-term noise
. impacts during construction. This is a significant impact that can be reduced to a less-
than-significant level with the following mitigationmeasure(s).
MM 4.9.1: Construction activities shall be restricted to the hours of 8:00AM to 5:00 PM
Monday through Friday. There shall be no construction activities on Saturday or Sunday.

Re: Proposed Creekside Development Plan
Dear City Council:
During the June 14,2005 meeting of the City Council, Mayor Pro Tern Costello asked
q\lestions of City staff regarding the trees along Crown Terrace and Le Point Street that
are going to be destroyed as a result of this development. Ms Heffernan's response was
that there were "only a few fIr trees and no oaks."
This response was quite surprising since, in reality, there are approximately 60 mature
Leyland Cypress along Crown Terrace and Le Point that will be destroyed along with (5)
Brisbane Box trees, a very mature Sego palm, an Arroyo Willow, (2) Black Cottonwood
trees and a small Coastal Live Oak tree. This is considerably more than "a few."
While I assume that a landscaping plan for the development is in place and is being
reviewed by the City, the number of years the proposed landscaping will take to mature
will be considerable.
If the proposed 3 story townhouses along Crown Terrace were scaled back to two stories
with ingress/egress for them being on Le Point and East Branch Street (rather than Crown
Terrace), none of these trees would need to be destroyed. And, the safety concerns of
residents backing out onto Crown Terrace would be eliminated.
Thank you for your consideration of these points.

RE: Creekside Project at 415 E. BranCh SI.
General Concerns about the entire project -Is this the right Fit for the Village??
Dear Council Members and City Staff:
We understand that this property someday will be developed. However once again. the same old plans
are submitted by the developer. Yes, some of the adjustments have been made in response to the
Planning Commission's recommendations. However, the resounding issues, concems and vision for the
village that were expressed by the community, the Planning Commission and even City Council
Members last June, were ignored. Please do not rush to approve a project that is still not designed
with the best interests of the community, commerce or historical significance of this priceless
last stand for.the "Historical Village of Arroyo Grande",
In short, this project, though impressive, is not right for this piece of property to be developed in the

Dear Council Members and City Staff:
As the above mentioned project comes up again for review .Chameleon" wants to express the following
concerns to both the City Council and Staff regarding the actual construction and implementation details.
Driveway Access to Chameleon
We request that the City ensure in writing the condition with the developer that this primary access to the
property remain open and accessible for business traffic, parking, deliveries etc., with no disruption to
business during the entire construction process. We will do everything possible to work with the
developers to make this achievable.
Dust Control
A dust control program during construction must be ensured on the site. This is for the safety of the
customers and the tenants. Because of ventilation circumstances at the barn and the existence of only
two doors on the north-east side of the building where most of the construction will occur, it is imperative
especially during dry weather that the area be watered down at regular intervals during the day to
prevent dust and keep excessive dirt off the driveway.
Waterline Crossing
We have been informed by the Building Department that it is the Developer's responsibility to ensure
uninterrupted water service to 415 E. Branch ("The Barn"). The waterline which existed before the
property was sub-divided, crosses the developer's parcel and will require possible re-routing or relocating
to ensure continuous service. Again, Chameleon will do whatever necessary. to provide the developer
. with hours and! or a schedule that the water service will not interrupt business.
Thank you so much for your consideration.

This letter is in reference to the project proposed for the Loomis property. My main
concern is safety along Crown Terrace.
I live on May Street with my wife and two young daughters, and we walk along Crown
Terrace at least twice a day on our way to and from downtown. As such, we are very
familiar with how narrow that street is. and how dangerous it can be. The combination of
more traffic and the proposed driveways entering onto Crown Terrace is a reCipe for
disaster. The road is very narrow (27 feet according to a neighbor) and bas a blind corner
onto Lepoint around which cars often travel at very high speed. WIth cars b""lring out
onto Crown Terrace, it is only a matter of time before there is an accident.
It seems like it would be far safer to route the exits from the homes either onto Branch
Street as is currently the case, or else onto lower Lepoint. Regardless of what happens, if
this project is approved the city should require that the developer either put a sidewalk
along Crown Teqace, or else pro.vide a route through the development that residents on
LePoint and May Street can use to safely avoid Crown Terrace.
We are also concerned about light pollution. If this project is to be mixed use, we hope
that the businesses will be required to consider the residential areas nearby and install low
in,tensity lighting.
Thank you for taking the time to read these comments.

Subject: Update on proposed Creekside (Loomis) project
Attached is a copy of official record from the Courity of San Luis Obispo showing legal
subdivision for the subject project site. that Is in effect as of today. The proposed site
consists of 6 parcels. and based on records. aU owned by DB&M propanles. LLC. Note that
the dashad lines within the parcel are primarily land locked blocks and can not be developed
without access. However. the 6 parcels appear to have access as follows:
EJ Parcel No. 11 has access from E. Branch
c Parcel No. 12 has access from E. BranCh
Q Parcel No. 1 has access from Crown Hill
c Parcel No. 3 has aecess from E. Sranch
c Parcel No. 13 including all of Its Imaginary lots. also appears to be land locked beceuse
of environmental Issues at Tally He. and dead end of La Point. However. since all .
parcels are owned by same entity. access may be poaslble through parcels 11 and 12
leading to E. Branch. of course subject to City approval. .
In brief it appears that the entire property has no right nor feaslbla access to La Point or
Crown Terrace. Their proposal. as it is submitted to the City. seems far beyond the
capacity of the site. Furthermore. the proposed plan seems to overlook available access
points that would warrant .A.much smaller SCilla Drolact. but Dursue access from where it
does not belong. _

CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENi
Concerning the proposed Planned Unit Development Case No. 04-001 (415 East
Branch Street):
Dear Planning Commissioners:
The proposal has completely ignored the established neighborhood that exists
adjacent.to the Crown Terrace and Le Point intersection. These people have owned their
homes for up to twenty years and more. We appreCiate the desirability of "The Village"
location, but apove that, we have maintained and improved our properties, developed our
friendships and enjoy the privileges ofliving in this lovely area. We have only learned in
the last month about this project that has apparently been successfully proceeding through
planning stages for years.
This proposal ignores the fact that the streets in and out of this area now Carry
large trucks, school buses, large numbers of automobiles and considemble pedestrian .
traffic-culminating at bottlenecks at two streets that intersect Crown Hill-- Crown
Terrace and East BmnchlHighway 227. In addition, where Crown Terrace becomes Le
Point Street, an extremely dangerous blind curve with absolutely NO traffic control
guarantees danger for anyone attempting to enter Le Point Street or -Crown Terrace at that
point. What considemtion does this proposal give to the approximately 24 new
household drivers and countless commercial customers who will enter this community at
this location?
This proposal is a determined effort by the owner to get his investment out of the
red Understood However, the location and the plan almost preclude the new owners
from becoming a part of the existing community, although the resultant traffic will
certainly have to be incorpomted somehow. As the owner of the 100- year- old house on-
Le Point and Crown Terrace, having lived there since 1986, I am resigned to the fact that
change is inevitable; but before the city hands the devtiloper the keys, I make the
following suggestio~:
1. That all improvements OIi"the property under considemtionbe made ON the
property, itself. This should include fire lanes, sidewalks, city services including
wiring, cable boxes, meters, etc. Remember the people who have taken pride in
improving landscape and those who value peace and privacy and WHO LIVE
HERE NOW.
2. That lower Le Point be designated a one-way street for entrance of the residents,
and that a one-way exit through the commercial portion of this property be
incorporated at a point ofuer ilian fue location of fue Crown Hilll Branch/227
Highway stop sign fuat is already bottlenecked at least twice a day for several
minutes at a time. The locked gate should not be included.
.3. The developer should be mindful iliat fue neighborhood around his proposed
development is the selling point Buyers here will want fue same consideration
for traffic patterns, safety concerns, housing density and the community
ambience, which we who have long lived here expect Anyfuing less will kill fue
golden goose for everybody. Signs are iliat already we may be overwhelming our
. ability to remain unique among American small towns.
To fuis developer, and particularly to fue city planners, please listen to and
consider fuose who live here NOW. You have only fuis opportunity to ge~ it
right
Sincerely, .

My husband and I have lived at the comer ofLe Point and Crown Terrace for 2 1/2 years.
This has been a quiet lovely neighborhood except for the speeding short-cut traffic using
Crown Terrace and Le Point St, There is a blind spot at the corner ofLe point and Crown
Terrace when traveling from Branch St. The proposal to permit access to. Le Point St.
from the Loomis area will definitely cause additional traffic at that intersection. The cars
travel too fast, there is no traffic control and the traffic study done last'year was
inconclusive. It is a very dangerous situation in just attempting to back your car out of
our driveway. There are many neighborhOod ohildren who ride bikes and skateboard at
this said intersection. There are also many senior citizens and disabled perSons
frequenting this intersection with some using walkers and wheel chairs. .Of course they
move very cautiously and slowly. They also complain of difficulty backing out of their .
driveway due to speeding traffic. There are also a number of children from Paulding Jr.
High School who walk: by this same intersection morning and afternoon due to the.
closure of Crown Hill as it meets Hwy. 227.
In light of the above I feel it is not safe to add additional traffic and poteJ1tial problems to
this intersection. The Planned Unit Development Case No ~l would Create more
traffic and congestion. The side walks planned for Crown Terrace, (24 ft wide) is
definitely not safe for pedestrians or school children.
The January 18, 2005 meeting was to start at 7:00pm as posted on the fence in front of
Loomis property. This was inaccurate as it started at 6:00pm. Some of the neighbors
missed the meeting due to this error. I am also cOncerned that so much plannirig has been
done without the neighborhood's awareness.
Please note the Signatures of the neighbors on the back of this letter who agree with these
comments and disapprove access to Le Point of this project.

I live right behindthr former Loomis property, so I will feel the
impact of any project the deepest. Of course I would like the
smallest impact on the neighborhood as possible. However, the
size and nature of the proposed plan is way out of scale. There are
too many driveways and not enough thought about safety issues.
Namely, kids going to and from school.
Even as it is, I have to be very careful entering the intersection.
!:>rivers speed around the hairpin turn at Le Point and Crown
Terrace. There is no place for people to walk safely and this
proposal will make it a certainty that someone will be maimed or
killed.
The plan needs to be changed to something that fits the
neighborhood!
When I bought my home, I was told somethiJig like a permanent
farmers market waS being considered. That would be perfect,
maybe impractical, but would still be worth DJoving toward. -
The plans I saw call for Pasadena style condos to tower over the
street. I have lived in Pasadena and that style has come to fit there,
but would look ridiculous here.
Please save our neighborhood!

Dear Commissioners,
As a resident of Arroyo Grande, I have enjoyed the charm and convenience of the
village for many years. One of the main attractions of the area is ability to get to know
the merchants and have a personal relationship with them which is so unusual in this
modem world. Also as a horse owner it was my pleasure to shop at the old Loomis barn
for hay, feed and pick up local eggs and that delicious ollalie berry jam for myself.
Yes, I am reminiscing, however; I do have a deep concem for the future of our
village. I would hate to see another contemporary designed stucco building built adjacent
to the LoOmis barn. I have certainly no objection to the rights of the current owner to
make use of the property, but please, let's be particularly careful to preserve the unique
, . character of the area and insUre its development is cpnsistent with the rest of our village.

Dear Mayor and Council Members,
Our neighborhood (CroWn TerraceILe Point St.) has been concerned about the Loomis
Development project and we strongly object to the many (twelve) entrances and back-out
traffic from this development. This will add traffic to the already overloaded traffic on
Crown Terrace!Le Point roadways as a ctrt-off route from one area ofHwy 227 ( in front
ofthe Loomis store) and the other entrance to Hwy227 ( western end ofLe Point St.).
We are very concerned about the cut-offtraffic. Recently, we learned a traffic
measurement was made of the number of cats using Crown Terrace and Le Point St as a
cut-off for another project. The information suggested this measurement was made
during 2003.
A reCent SANDAG traffic study of the Loomis Development Project did not
consider the cut-off traffic in their analysis.
Some of my neighbors have indicated some reluctance of the city to give them the results
of the traffic measurements on Crown TerraceILe Point. Please arrange for the results of
this traffic study on Crown TerracelLe Point St. be made available to us. This will be
shared with others on Le Point Street concerned about the cut-off traffic and the added
traffic due to the Loomis Property Development.

Dear Commissioners;
After a number of discussions with neighbors in the area, the style of the buildings of the
current plans for the Loomis Development are not suitable for the desired motif of our
Village. The style of the buildings both residential and commercial should be more
compatible with the style of the Loomis house and barn and other buildings along the
Village main street. It is very easy to identify the buildings which have been built in
recent years and are not companble with the majority of the Village architecture.
Also, the project is described as being zoned a mixed-use development The' project is .
divided into two areas. A commercial area and a residential area. It is not a mixed
commercial/residential area.

Dear Commissioners,
This is written to strongly object to thee;xit ofP1anned Unit Development Case No. 04-
001 (415 East Branch Street) onto Le Point Street Le Point Street currently canies too
much speMi'1g traffic due to the use of that street as a short-cut between 2 locations of
Hwy 227 as it circles Crown Hill.
The improvement ofLe Point St (North of Development) to a 40 ft. width and sidewalk
will encroach on the home oWlllmllawns. The home OWlllml are very concerned about
the changes in Le Point St due to the access from the development. MaJIy have only
recently been informed of the access OCthe development to Le Point St
Pedestrian access to the ploperty from Crown Temce should be denied due to the narrow
width (24 ft.) of that street. Possibly the pedestrian access from Crown Terrace is for
school childmIleaving and ~""ing to the poperty. This is an unsafe choice.
The development of the Loomis property should only consider access from Crown Hill
street or East Branch Street and not include a gate to sepande the commercial and
residential portions. The access to the Loomis property from Crown Hill Street or East
Branch Street was SIItisfiIcWIy for 9S years and there is DO good te8SOD to a1~ that and

Dear Commissioners,
This is written to strongly object to the exit of Planned Unit Development Case No. 04-
001 (415 EastBrancb StR:et) onto Le Point Street Le Point Street cunently carries too
much speeding traffic due to the use of that street as a short-cut between 2 locations of
Hwy 227 as it circles Crown Hill.
The impro\Iement ofLe Point St (North of Development) to a 40 ft. width an sidewalk
will encroach on the home owners lawns. TIle home owners are very concerned about
the l".....nr in Le Point St due to the access from the development. Many have only
recimtly been informed of the access of the development to Le Point St.
Pedestrian access to the property 110m Crown Terrace sbould be denied due to the narrow
width (24 ft.) of that street. Possibly the pedestrian access 110m Crown Terrace is for
school children leaving and returning to the property. This is an Unsafe choice.

Gentlemen:
My husband and I strongly oppose the development project as proposed. Not only will it
increase-traffic on both Le Point and Crown Terrace, but having residents backing out of
their driveway onto Crown Terrace is dangerous and completely unacceptable. I cannot
imagine 1hat your Commission would permit such a plan to go into effect.
Additionally, we feel the aesthetics of the Village shouldlemain intact-- especially after
seeing what was built at the West end of it - those atrocious, completely out-of-character
buildings should never have been allowed.
We ask that you reconsider the project as a whole. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Sheila Taylor

Members of the iUa:L>.':'t!~;u?
This letter is in reference to the project proposed for the Loomis property. My main
concern is safety along Crown Terrace.
I live on May Street with my wife and two young daughters, and we walk along Crown
Terrace at least twice a day on our way to and from downtown. As such. we are very
familiar with how narrow that street is, and how dangerous it can be. The combination of
more traffic and the proposed driV!lways entering onto Crown Terrace is a recipe for
disaster. The road is very narrow (27 feet according to a neighbor) and has a blind comer
onto Lepoint around which cars often travel at very high speed. Wrth cars backing out
onto Crown Terrace, it is only a matter of time before there is an accident.
It seems Jike it woUld be fur safer to route the exits from the homes either onto Branch
Street as is currently the case. or else onto lower Lepoint. Regardless of what happens, if
this project is approved the city shoUld require that the developer either put a sidewalk
along Crown Terrace, or else provide a route through the development that residents on
LePoint and May Street can use to safely avoid CroWn Terrace.
We are alsO concerned about light pollution. If this project is to be mixed use, we hope
that the businesses will be required to consider the residential areas nearby and install low
. intensity lighting.
Thank you for taking the time to read these comments.
Sincerely,
~~

Re: CITY COUNCIL HEARING ON REVISED CREEKSIDE PROJECT
Dear Honorable Council Members:
Weare the owners of the warehouse at 415 East Branch Street. We have and currendy
support the proposed project surrounding our property. DB& M Properties has been "
trying for a very long time to satisfy the city and we think that they have more than paid their
dues in trying to satisfy your requests.
We feel that some of the other neighbors have made too many negative comments and that
it is unfair to give them so much sway in the process. It is a good project and will enhance
the entire village as well as preserve the barn as you always wanted. We have seen the
revised office building architecture and believe that fits very well with the project as a whole.
Further, we would like to emphasize that Ms. Camay Arad and her husband do not represent
our views whatsoever and have very often made comments and suggestions for revisions
that we completely disagree with. We like the project without any more additional changes.
Please put our rights as landowners in perspective as you grant your approval Tuesday night.
Very truly yours,
/ /. ./'

ROB STRONG, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR~
SUBJECT:
CONSIDERATION OF AMENDED CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT CASE
NO. 06-002; HAMPTON INN AND SUITES PROJECT LOCATED AT
1400 W. BRANCH STREET
OCTOBER 24, 2006
DATE:
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council: 1) adopt attached Resolution approving Amended
Conditional Use Permit Case No. 06-002 modifying condition of approval number 23 for
the Hampton Inn and Suites Hotel, including relocation of one additional existing mature
oak and an amended landscape plan as requested; and 2) authorize the Mayor to
execute a revenue sharing agreement to provide a reimbursement of $250,000 over a
five year period in transient occupancy tax revenue generated from the project.
FUNDING:
It has been estimated that the Hotel could generate $200,000 to $250,000 in annual
transient occupancy tax revenue to the City upon completion based on its projected
occupancy. In order to increase economic feasibility of the project, it is recommended
that the City enter into a revenue sharing agreement with the applicant, which would
provide a reimbursement of $50,000 per year for five years from the transient occupancy
tax revenue generated from the project.
DISCUSSION:
Backqround
On August 14, 2006, the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) recommended approval
of final grading and landscape plans, which included shifting the Hotel building
approximately ten (10') feet west (toward Grand Estates) to accommodate three mature
oaks near the front entry (Trees 9,10 and 11) on the original site plan (Attachment 1).
Additionally, oak trees #1 and #2 in the center of the parking lot and in front of the
restaurant were to be protected in place. Oaks #7 and #8 within the Hotel building
footprint were determined appropriate and feasible for transplanting and five oaks. Trees
#3, #4, #5, #6 and #12, also in the building footprint and the latter in an essential
driveway, were determined infeasible and inappropriate for relocation. Based on the field
review by City and consulting arborists as well as the Directors or Parks, Recreation and
Facilities and the Community Development Director, it is recommended that these five
trees (#3, #4, #5, #6 and #12) be required to be mitigated with 36" and 48" box
replacement oak trees to be integrated into the landscape plan.
CITY COUNCIL
CONSIDERATION OF AMENDED CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT CASE NO. 04-009
HAMPTON INN AND SUITES PROJECT LOCATED AT 1400 W. BRANCH STREET
OCTOBER 24, 2006
PAGE 2
On October 2, 2006, the ARC was requested to review revised site and landscape plans
for the project after it was determined that the building relocation to the west would cause
major additional retaining walls along the western property line and substantially increase
costs. It was also determined by the project applicants that the size and number of
specimen trees and other plantings included in the ARC approved landscape plan made
the project economically infeasible, as well as unnecessary slope bank walls which could
otherwise be matted and landscaped for erosion control for improved aesthetics and cost
reduction. However, returning the building to its original approved location requires the
relocation of at least one of the three oak trees (#9) adjoining the Hotel entry walk and
near the porte-cochere. The proposed location would maintain the three tree cluster by
placement of #9 in front of #10 and #11, about 45 feet to the southeast.
While the ARC continued to be supportive of the project, they neither approved nor
denied the revisions. Instead, they reinforced their earlier recommendations and
suggested these changes be considered by the City Council since they are based more
on economic policy considerations rather than design issues (Attachment 2). An
alternative site plan preferred by the applicant would have required all three trees (#9,
#10 and #11) to be relocated or removed to enable the front entry porte-cochere to be
centered and replacement oaks to be distributed into the yards and parking lot planting
areas. Additionally, the revised plans and the alternative architectural plan were not
sufficiently detailed for comparison of design alternatives. Further study of Hotel
basement and entry modifications were suggested to avoid transplant of the oak tree or
increases to building height, but the cost savings of proposed changes might be offset by
additional grading and/or reengineering time delays. Without more information, the ARC
wanted Council decision on the "structural necessity" of the requested changes.
Subsequent discussions between staff, the property owner and the project architect have
resolved that relocation of oak tree #9 to allow the building placement as originally
approved is the least substantial change providing the same design concept, but reduced
costs (due to avoidance of additional retaining walls). After further study, the architect
does not believe that changing the building elevation would provide significant cost
savings from reduCed excavation because it would also require additional site grading
and time to reengineer the plans.
The revised and more economical landscape plan is also in substantial conformity to the
preliminary Planned Development approval, despite reduction in the sizes and numbers
of shrubs and trees proposed. Staff will present a comparison of the approved and
revised landscape plans at the meeting to indicate the changes outlined in the following
table:

Staff believes that the revised landscape plan, although reduced, is adequate and will
provide an attractive setting for this major landmark building. The relocation of oak tree
#9 appears unavoidable considering its configuration and the need for access between
the porte-cochere and front entry, as well as providing for the concept of screening the
large building with the three-tree cluster. The revised plan complies with oak tree
mitigation for the five removed and includes relocation of three large oaks to parking lot
planters or yard areas adjoining the Hotel.
The only clarifications or changes to the City Council approved Resolution No. 3867
(Attachment 3) involve the table following condition number 23. In that table, tree #6 was
proposed for "transplant" despite its "poor" condition and arborist recommendation to
remove it; tree #8 was proposed for "removal" despite its "good" condition and arborist
recommendation to save it; and tree #9 was proposed to be saved despite its "poor" vigor
and condition and arborist recommendation for possible removal. It is apparent that trees
#6 and #8 were incorrectly identified but that the intent was to transplant the good tree #8
and remove the poor tree #6.
Tree #9 is one of the poorest vigor and condition trees, but was part of the three-tree
cluster in front of the entry. If the Council is willing to consider a large specimen oak tree
replacement rather than transplanting this marginal existing mature multi-trunk oak, an
appropriate configuration with better shape, size and health could be an aesthetically and
economically equivalent alternative.
The City Council minutes of July 26, 2005 indicate that the Council directed that trees
#5a, #6, #7, #7a, and #12 be transplanted if feasible. However, subsequent surveys by
the consulting arborist conclude that transplant of tree #12 is not feasible. In addition,
tree #7a was determined to be exempt due to its small size.

Therefore, the table in condition number 23 is now recommended to provide as follows
and as itemized in the attached Exhibit 'A':
Trees #1, #2, #10 and #11 - Save in place.
Trees #3, #4, #5, #6 and #12 - Remove with 3:1 mitigation with 36" and 48" box.
Tree #7a - Remove without mitigation (exempt due to small size).
Trees #5a, #7, #8 and #9 - Transplant (or #9 replace with select specimen oak).
These table clarifications are the only apparent amendment to existing conditions of
approval of Conditional Use Permit Case No. 04-009, per the attached resolution.
None of the conditions of approval (other than as outlined above) would be altered by the
revised landscape and grading plans. Therefore, staff recommends that these proposed
modifications should be approved if the City Council concurs.
In response to concerns identified by the. applicant regarding the current economic
feasibility of the project, staff requested a copy of the project's pro forma, which was
reviewed by the City's redevelopment consultant. Based on his preliminary analysis, it
was confirmed that the proposed economic assistance is justified to increase the
feasibility of the project when combined with cost reductions from the proposed changes.
According to the City's redevelopment legal firm, a recent legal case determined that
financial assistance does not trigger prevailing wage requirements on a project if the
assistance is minimal. The funding assistance recommended for this project is within the
same range of percentage of total costs as the project that was the subject of the court
case. Therefore, staff believes this action can be taken without triggering prevailing wage
requirements for the construction pf this project.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Adopt attached Resolution approving Amended Conditional Use Permit Case No.
06-002 modifying condition of approval number 23 for the Hampton Inn and
Suites Hotel, including relocation of one additional existing mature oak and an

. The Tuscany style is not compatible with the Village Design Guidelines, including the
columns and arches. It might be okay for Grand Avenue.
. Ms. Barneich noted she did not care for the purple color on the new sign proposal.
. Mr. Peachey added that the individual lettering didn't fit the Village - most stores
have some sort of signboard as a background.
. Keeping the building intact (instead of demolishing a portion for parking) is okay.
Mr. Frassica responded that he was disappointed the committee didn't like it, since he tried
so hard to create a nice building. He apologized for not returning with architectural
changes, noting this is his first experience with a commercial building and he thought when
the project manager spoke with Mr. Strong regarding the building configuration and parking
alternatives that all of the architectural, material and color changes would be okay without
the need to return to ARC.
. Chair Hoag responded that in his opinion the building color is okay, but not the
arches above the windows nor the columns at the entryway.
. Mr. Severance gave a heartwarming character reference on behalf of Mr. Frassica,
requesting project approval and noting the unapproved changes were unintentional.
. Mr. Strong described the changes that he approved administratively - retaining the
entire building and accepting in-lieu parking fees. He saw the square rather than
rectangular windows, but didn't note any entry columns, arches or color changes.
He didn't recall any other progression of different drawings, but offered that if the
ARC requires revision in design, color or materials, they could be phased in over
time to help with financial challenges. .
Kristen Barneich moved and Michael Peachey seconded recommendation of denial to the
Community Development Director for ASP 06-016 with the following comments:
. The applicant can take the above comments about using a signboard and return with
a new proposal, or use the originally approved sign plans.
Motion approved: 3/0 voice vote; Gary Scherquist abstained.
Kristen Barneich moved and Michael Peachey seconded that the architectural changes
from the approved plans are not acceptable and the former design is preferred as it's more
in keeping with the Design Guidelines.
. Discussion: Mr. Strong asked for clarification if the items he approved
administratively still stand, particularly the smaller square rather than rectangular
windows and not doing the proposed building demolition. Consensus was that those
administratively approved plans are acceptable (as shown on t.he building plans).
The arches, faux painted columns, entry features and Tuscan style aren't approved.
The applicant is welcome to return with a redesign.
Motion approved: 3/0 voice vote; Gary Scherquist abstained.

Rob Strong presented the staff report. In response to Chair Hoag's request for clarification
on what ARC's focus should be, Mr. Strong replied it's mostly the planting plan in terms of
oak relocation and removal, and grading and retaining wall site preparation.

Kevin Hobbs, Robert Tuttle's architect/project manager, explained they need landscaping
approval in order to start grading operations before the rainy season.
Dale Hatfield, landscape architect, responded to prior comments by changing several plants
and using drip irrigation at tops and bottoms of walls and around oak trees. Traditional
irrigation was used in higher traffic areas (where the irrigation might be vandalized) for
easier maintenance.
Dave Ori, structural engineer, was present to answer questions.
Bill McKenzie, civil engineer, discussed grading challenges, including parking (addressed
by terracing), driveways and circulation.
Jonna Otto, GeoSolutions engineer, designed the cuts and slopes, and checked grading
stability. The walls are proposed to be cladding or erosion control matting over weathered
sandstone to help stabilize the cut slope (to the north). The plantings on the wall will help
prevent erosion.
In response to Mr. Scherquist's request, Mr. Hobbs described the building architecture as a
point of reference for the surrounding landscaping. He shared a colored rendering and four
elevations, showing walls, grading, parking and ADA path of travel into the building. He
also discussed the 3D model and changes from the Council project approval presentation.
Michel Deffense, Slope Block company principal, described the wall system details, shared
a cross section of the wall, shared photos of similar wall projects, and stated they won't
even know it's there once plants have matured. It was noted the blocks would be laid out in
an "alternating" (one block closed/one block open) pattern, which is easier for construction
and adds more stability to the wall. The time for landscaping to fill in depends on several
factors (number of plants, irrigation, etc.) He shared an example of the tan block. It's not
as smooth as machine block, but not as rough as split face and they're spaced about 3 -
4.5" apart.
. Mr. Hatfield noted the bottom vines should grow at least halfway up the wall in at
least two years and the top plants cascade over. If they plant the middle, they'll
need to irrigate, but the lower vines can cover the entire wall, rooting in the pockets.
They plan to plant a grove of trees in the northeast corner for additional screening.
. In response to Mr. Strong, Ms. Otto noted the wall or other erosion control would
need to continue all the way up. (It couldn't stop halfway, then start again.) It's more
stable to plant the entire slope. Also, there's a drainage area with gravel behind the
wall, which may make the upper drainage swale unnecessary.
. In response to Mr. Peachey, Mr. McKenzie noted there wasn't enough room to tilt
the slope up and terrace it.
. After discussion, ARC consensus was that it would be better to locate the a
proposed bus turn-out somewhere else, due to slope constraints and aesthetics
adjacent to the restaurant slope bank.
. In regards to erosion control, Chair Hoag noted he would like zero fugitive sediment,
to avoid sediment runoff into creeks as has happened with other projects.

. How close is the drip irrigation to the base of the oak trees? Plans just show the
tubing at this point, and there will be emitters for each plant.
. Why won't tree #12 be transplanted? Mr. Strong replied it's a multi-trunk and not
judged to have healthy branches. It's a definite conflict where it is. Several more
attractive box oaks could be purchased for the price of transplanting.
o Mr. Hatfield further described the planting plan in detail, including oak
placement, oak canopies, and plant species.
. Mr. Scherquist expressed concern that rosemary draping over the drainage swalel
"V ditch" might be cut off due to maintenance concerns. Mr. McKenzie noted that
since there's a gravel course behind the wall and almost no area above, they might
not even need it. Mr. Deffense noted it's a standard part of their plans, but not
always required.
Gary Scherquist moved and Kristen Barneich seconded to continue the meeting past 5:00
p.m. Motion approved: 4/0 voice vote.
ARC questions and comments (continued):
. Consensus was to eliminate the V ditch.
. Is the Pink Winter Currant shrub meant to screen headlights? No, it's just for interest
to break up the monotony of the slope planting.
. Where is the Fire Department connection? Mr. Hatfield has a note on the plans that
they will be screened.
. In regards to the upper parking area, it needs additional landscaping. Mr. Hatfield
noted that it was engineered that way, so he didn't have room to work with. Mr.
Strong noted they couldn't eliminate spaces. Mr. White agreed that the restaurants
interested in that pad have all dropped interest after finding insufficient parking per
their individual chain standards.
. Consensus was that trees should be added along the base of the north slope wall if
possible. There's not enough room with the cantilevered footings. Mr. Hatfield did
suggest some additional trees in the available areas to work with.
. It's important that the correct plants be verified and planted according to the plans
(for instance the more mildew-resistant varieties).
. The parking lot wall should be planted with something that does well in shade.
. Mr. Scherquist suggested adding a vine with color to the north slope wall for
variation, such as red trumpet vine. That gets long vines that blow in the wind, but
bougainvillea would work because it sends out roots to tack it in place.
. Mr. Scherquist's biggest concern is the height of the north slope wall. Mr. Hatfield
felt it wouldn't be seen until you're in that parking lot, since the trees will grow to
screen it from the street.
. It was appreciated that the building was moved west and a stem wall used to
maintain existing landscaping.
. Whereas Ms. Barneich was concerned with parking lot landscaping for aesthetics,
Mr. Peachey was concerned with offsetting the heat island effect.
. The planting palette is fine.
. After further discussion, it was felt that the elimination of the V ditch would probably
provide enough room to allow some trees (Canary Island Pines) to be planted at the
ARC NOTES
AUGUST 14, 2006

base of the north slope wall. Mr. Hatfield added that any tree within 5' of concrete
would have a root barrier.
. It's important to maintain the health of existing trees, particularly not to over-water
the oaks.
. Mr. Scherquist suggested additional rosemary planted further down from the top of
the north slope wall.
Gary Scherquist moved and Michael Peachey seconded recommendation of approval to the
Community Development Director for Hampton Inn final grading and essential landscape
plans with the following conditions:
. The design team shall study moving the north slope wall to allow for additional trees
to be planted on the north side of the upper parking lot.
. Add another course of rosemary (with irrigation) to be planted on the north slope wall
partway down from the top (at the Landscape Architect's decision as to how far
down to go).
. The 10' parking lot wall (that slopes at the interior corner of the building) shall have
vines that grow well in the shade included on the landscape plan. These shall
continue all the way down the wall toward the restaurant.
. Add two more 24" box oak trees - one at the pool end and one in between the pines
at the north side of the upper parking lot.
. Explore eliminating or relocating the V ditch at the top of the north slope wall.
. ARC feels the bus turnout is inappropriate at this location and supports relocation to
a more appropriate location. There is too much of a grading problem here and it
would have significant visual impacts on the project.
Motion approved: 3/0 voice vote.
Consensus on the block wall color and material was that it was acceptable as is.
III. DISCUSSION ITEM:
. RE: Robasciotti buildinQ at Traffic Way and East Branch: Chair Hoag noted he likes
the way it's turning out. Gary Scherquist agreed.
o Michael Peachey noted that the windows facing Lemos aren't symmetrical.
The smaller right-hand window is positioned slightly higher than the longer
left-hand window.
. RE: Billboard on E. Branch Street: Consensus for the record is that ARC does not
like the billboard.

ARCHITECT; LOCATION -1400 W. BRANCH ST.
Associate Planner Jim Bergman presented the staff report. This project was originally
approved by and will return to Council, but it was felt they would want ARC's feedback.
Gary White spoke in support of the project, noting costs have increased dramatically
and lenders won't fund it. Final plans will be ready by the Council meeting.
ARC had the following comments and questions:
. ARC discussed the changes, noting they would have liked to have: 1) more
detailed sets of landscape plans; 2) renderings that show the building moved 10'
over, and 3) site sections to show the height increase.
. In regards to landscaping,
o Oak tree #9 may need to be removed and/or relocated.
o Mr. White shared tree photos taken earlier today.
o Which oaks are staying where they are? Three or four trees.
o ARC would like to retain the look of the oak tree cluster at the entrance.
o ARC was concerned about reviewing the design and not overstepping
their position by getting involved with the economic aspect of the project.

o While it was felt this is a project that Council wants, at the same time they
referred to Council minutes noting concern over tree loss.
o Before going to City Council, applicants should consider redesigning the
rear area around oak tree #9 with some minor modifications.
o Some relocated oaks might not thrive once transplanted. If it's a cost
issue, it might be better to get trees that grow taller faster.
. How will the grading change save money? The savings isn't so much on the
grading itself, but the fill on the slope and engineered retaining walls. The height
change is a grading quantity and export issue.
Warren Hoag moved and Kristen Barneich seconded deferral of a new recommendation
on the requested changes, retaining the previous ARC recommendation until additional
information is presented on the economic realities of what landscaping can be saved (or
not) and until City Council makes a policy decision on tree removal and building height.
Discussion: Instead of "economics", use the term "structural necessity". ARC is
looking for City Council to confirm that the changes are necessary as part of the City's
overall economic development strategy, since economics isn't ARC's purview.
Warren Hoag revised the motion and Kristen Barneich agreed to defer a new
recommendation on the requested changes, retaining the previous ARC
recommendation until additional information is presented on the structural necessity of
what landscaping can be saved or not and until City Council makes a policy decision on
tree removal and building height.

Application - Gary White; Location -1400 W. Branch Street.
Assistant Planner Bergman presented the staff report and recommended the Council adopt a
mitigated Negative Declaration and introduce an Ordinance amending the zoning map to
designate the subject property as Planned Development (PD1.1), and adopt a Resolution
approving Tentative Parcel Map 05-003 and Conditional Use Permit (Specific Development Plan)
Case No. 04-009, allowing the construction of a hotel and restaurant. Staff responded to
questions from Council concerning trees proposed to be removed; clarification that the project
would go back to the Architectural Review Committee for final approval of colors and materials
(Condition of Approval #16); whether the City could require larger street trees and whether there
were provisions to require the developer to provide a bond for landscaping; proposed mitigation
measures relating to water conservation; and comparative water usage between a hotel use and
the previously approved office use.
Mayor Ferrara opened the public hearing and invited comments from those in the audience who
wished to be heard on the matter.
Bob Tuttle, project architect, noted that this was the third presentation of the project to the City
Council and the project had been revised to address a number of issues which had previously
been raised. He displayed renderings of the proposed project and reviewed revisions that had
been made to the project.
Steve Ross, member of the Board of Directors of the Arroyo Grande Chamber of Commerce,
stated that this project represents an excellent opportunity for the City as it would provide
additional revenue to the City through transient occupancy tax and it would provide an excellent
hotel and restaurant in the community.

PeQQY Harlan, Arroyo Grande resident, inquired what the traffic impacts would be on W. Branch
Street and how the City was going to mitigate those impacts. She commented that she was glad
the City was addressing the water issue. She also inquired what the impact would be to the
adjoining motel.
No further public comments were received and Mayor Ferrara closed the public hearing.
Council Member Dickens responded to public comments concerning traffic impacts, noting that
traffic mitigation measures had been addressed at a previous meeting, and that a traffic signal
would be required at W. Branch Street and Camino Mercado. With regard to the impact to the
existing motel, he commented that from an economic standpoint, locating hotels next to each
other was good. He agreed with the Chamber of Commerce's position that a hotel is a good use
for this site. He expressed concerns; however, with the proposed size, scale, and intensity of
use of the proposed project and. stated he could not support the three-story hotel as designed.
He noted that a two-story hotel at this location would be more appropriate and that if the number
of units were reduced,it would help to address the water issue. He felt that the proposed
negative declaration does not adequately address additional water mitigation measures for a
project that would generate such a large amount of water usage. He also suggested that the
project could be reconfigured and redesigned around all of the existing trees. He concluded by
stating that traffic impacts would also be reduced if the size of the hotel were reduced.
Council Member Arnold supported the project as proposed. He commented on a number of win-
win scenarios such as the generation of additional transient occupancy tax for the City and a
hotel that would benefit other businesses in the City. He stated that the proposed hotel is in an
area where there are other large buildings, such as the Levitz Furniture store and the Five Cities
Center. He commented that the applicant had done a good job of mitigating the loss of oak trees
by moving the building, and that existing trees and proposed landscaping would help to screen
the mass of the hotel.
Council Member Guthrie commented on the comparisons between the previously approved
office project versus the proposed hotel project as it related to size and scale and traffic impacts;
supported the access from Camino Mercado instead of W. Branch Street; expressed skepticism
regarding the amount projected for transient occupancy tax revenue; however, he agreed that a
hotel use would be a good addition to the City's tourism program. He commented that the pluses
of the project outweighed the minuses; that moving the building back from W. Branch Street has
improved some of the scale issues; commented on the water availability issue; and also stated
that the project will pay impact fees for traffic that could be applied to the Brisco interchange
project. He stated he could support moving forward with the project.
Following additional questions regarding trees on the site, and also the timing of required traffic
signalization, Mayor Pro Tem Costello stated that this site was a perfect place for a hotel and he
did not find its size to be a problem. He expressed concerns about water and stated he was
willing to approve this project if conditions are included requiring adequate water availability. He
acknowledged that the traffic signal would improve traffic circulation; supported tree mitigation
replacement measures at a 3:1 ratio; and concluded that he could support the project based on
the condition of water availability and tree replacements provided at the appropriate ratio with
large trees.

Mayor Ferrara agreed with Mayor Pro Tem Costello with regard to adding a condition of approval
regarding the acquisition of an additional water source. He commented that he was not
comfortable with relying on water conservation as a mitigation measure. He spoke about the
need to consider water impacts as a whole, citywide; not on a project-by-project basis. He spoke
about cumulative impacts as it relates to consumption. He suggested that prior to building
permits being issued, the City should have confirmation from Oceano Community Services
District regarding the purchase of additional water. He agreed that traffic impacts had been
discussed at length; spoke about the restoration of Proposition 42 funds for future capital
improvements; and acknowledged that traffic signalization at Camino Mercado would be required
prior to building permits being issued. He commented that while economics are important, it is
not the sole factor for approving a project. He stated that the services a particular project can
provide for the community should be considered and the City needs lodging and meeting
facilities. He stated he had mixed feelings about the size and scale of the project. He suggested
that additional window treatments be utilized on the fiat pane windows. He suggested that a
condition of approval be added that architectural treatment, fac;:ade, or shadow box be required
on flat plane windows to add more dimension. He referred to the soil type on the site as it
relates to landscaping and noted that landscaping and irrigation should be monitored closely. He
noted that this was a difficult site with its changes in elevation and stated it would be important to
monitor this project closely to ensure the project is built as presented. He stated with additional
conditions, he could supp ort the proj ect.
Council Member Arnold moved to adopt a Resolution as follows: "A RESOLUTION' OF THE
CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE ADOPTING A MITIGATED NEGATIVE
DECLARATION APPROVING TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP 05-003 AND CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT (SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN) CASE NO. 04-009, ALLOWING THE
CONSTRUCTION OF A HOTEL AND RESTAURANT; LOCATED AT 1400 WEST BRANCH
STREET, AS APPLIED FOR BY STEPHEN COOL AND GARY WHITE", as amended to
include the following conditions of approval: 1) that additional adequate water is available prior
to issuance of building permits and conditioned by the approval by the City Council of a contract
for Well No. 10 and an Agreement signed with Oceano Community Services District for the
purchase of water; 2) that trees Sa, 6, 7, and 12 are transplanted and that mitigated trees are a
minimum of 36" box with a minimum 50% of them 48" or larger; 3) that a 2 year landscape
monitoring bond (after final of the project) is provided; and 4) that the south elevation has
additional window and wall treatments. Mayor Pro Tem Costello seconded the motion.
In order to clarify the motion with regard to the conditions of approval, City Attorney Carmel
noted the following modifications to the Resolution:
Condition of Approval #120 would be modified to add the following text: "Two Year
LandscapelTree Replacement Guarantee: 100% of the estimated cost of all landscaping
improvements, including but not limited to mitigation replacement and relocated trees as
determined by the Parks, Recreation and Facilities Director."
Condition of Approval #124 would be added to state: "Prior to issuance of building
permits, a contract for the construction of City Well NO.1 0 shall be fully approved by the
City and an agreement with the Oceano Community Services District for additional water
supply shall be approved by the City."

MEMORANDUM
FROM:
CITY COUNCIL
ROB STRONG, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR AND -Rs
DAN HERNANDEZ, DIRECTOR OF PARKS, RECREATION AND
FACILITIES
TO:
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF TRAFFIC WAY STREETSCAPE PLAN
DATE:
OCTOBER 24, 2006
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council consider the draft Traffic Way Streetscape Plan
(TWSP), including street tree planting program by the Tree Guild and street restriping
and future improvement plans prepared by Public Works and Community Development
Departments for approval and implementation as recommended by the Parks and
Recreation Commission and Traffic Commission.
(
FUNDING:
The costs of acquiring 20 new street trees is partially being funded py the Tree Guild
through a $2,000 Urban Forestry grant, but City expenses such as excavation, deep root
planters, sidewalk or parkway repairs and future irrigation and tree maintenance are not
estimated at this time. Additionally, the costs of resurfacing or removal of existing striping
and new striping and future curb, gutter, sidewalk, street pavement, crosswalks or other
improvements are not yet determined. It is proposed that the TWSP proposals be
considered, that the City Council preferred proposals be refined by staff, and a phased
implementation program with cost estimates be returned to City Council for authorization
of priority and follow-up improvements.
DISCUSSION:
Backaround
The Parks and Recreation Commission initially discussed the TWSP at its February 8,
2006 meeting (Attachment 1). At that time, the recommendation was to recommend to
the City Council approval of Phase 1 of the plan and to table other aspects of the plan
pending meetings with concerned business owners who would be impacted along
Traffic Way. The City Council supported the recommendation of the Commission in
May of 2006 by authorizing a "Phase One street tree planting program" by the volunteer
Tree Guild, including assistance from City Parks and Public Works staff to install ten (10)
new street trees along Traffic Way and Station Way. These trees were installed in June
of 2006. Due to concems from impacted businesses, the City Council postponed
consideration of Phases Two and Three. The City Council requested that a draft Traffic
Way Streetscape Plan be prepared to coordinate street tree planting, street restriping,
and future improvement plans, and that this plan be presented to affected business and
property owners along Traffic Way as well as the Parks and Recreation and Traffic
Commissions for recommendations and possible refinements. Community Development

staff as well as members of the Tree Guild met with some, but not all of the business and
property owners, along the affected street frontages and also conferred with Parks and
Recreation, Public Works, Village Association and Traffic Commission. Due to concerns
voiced by some of the business owners, the plans have been revised slightly. A memo
highlighting their meetings, comments and concerns is attached (Attachment 2).
On October 11, 2006, the Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed Phase 2 of the
plan and recommended adoption of Phase Two implementation without adopting a
timeline for implementation. Implementation of Phase 2 of the tree planting plan was
discussed at this meeting and was agreed that since Parks staff currently lacks the
resources to adequately maintain additional trees, planting is to be delayed until possible
funding and additional resources can be discussed during the FY2006/07 budget
process. Grant funding acquired by the Tree Guild requires installation of trees by
October of 2007, thereby giving the City time to address maintenance concerns.
Separately, City Council approved Public Works Department recommendations for
restriping and reconfiguration of travel lanes on Traffic Way between Branch Street and
Station Way to create adequate sight distance and better bike and pedestrian safety on
the bridge. The TWSP modifies the recommendations previously approved. On October
16, the Traffic Commission also reviewed and unanimously supported the TWSP with a
few added refinements to the recommended street restriping and improvement proposals.
While the best traffic safety design would apparently be intersection signalization, it is not
currently part of the Capital Improvement Program and would probably not be as high a
priority project as the Traffic Way and Fair Oaks intersection. The less expensive TWSP
improvements, such as restriping and reconfiguration with appropriate safety sign age and
improved traffic safety design features, are immediate and interim alternatives.
Proposals
Generally, the TWSP proposes that Traffic Way and the northern portion of Station Way
be restriped to include three rather than two or four lanes. This would enable on-street
parking on both sides of Traffic Way, bike lanes on both sides, an adequate travel lane in
each direction, and a two-way left turn painted median or dedicated left turn lane at each
public street intersection. Specifically, this would improve bike and pedestrian safety
across Traffic Way bridge and also enable better sight distance for the southbound traffic
approaching the Station Way intersection. The restriping would maintain two travel lanes
northbound and increase the width of all lanes, as well as provide minimum width bike
lanes across the bridge to "buffer" the four-foot wide sidewalks. This reconfiguration also
enables the stop bar at Station Way to move easterly and two painted right turn islands to
be added to the new intersection to improve sight distance and safety channelization.
The three lane configuration would enable more on-street parking and a recommended
relocation of a vehicle drop box lane for supplemental post office use to serve northbound
Traffic Way traffic. The new drop box lane would be located on the east side of the Traffic
Way right of way between Station Way and Nelson Street. The TWSP also proposes
future relocation of the crosswalk from Nelson Street to the Station Way intersection when
the creek pathway along Arroyo Grande Creek is improved for Village Area pedestrian
access to the new Post Office.
The same three lane configuration would extend between Nelson and Poole Streets
adjoining Firemen's Memorial Park and providing two-way left turn lane for numerous

CONSIDERATION OF TRAFFIC WAY STREETSCAPE PLAN
OCTOBER 24, 2006
PAGE 3
private driveways as well as a left hand turn and median merge at the angled Bridge
Street intersection mid-block. The current Post Office drop box island is proposed for
relocation and the curb projections can be enlarged to a more substantial tree and
landscaped area at the Bridge/TrafficlPoole junction where Traffic Way would transition to
the existing four lane configuration.
Between Poole Street and Allen Street the existing four lane configuration is needed for
the Fair Oaks Avenue intersection capacity with the existing three way stops. With future
signalization, it may be feasible to restripe this two block segment, as well as Fair Oaks
Avenue between Traffic Way and Station Way or the freeway 101 off-ramp to a three-lane
configuration with bike lanes on both sides. It is proposed that the TWSP be referred to
Omni-Means for traffic engineering and traffic model analysis to review the safety and
capacity of these design proposals. In either configuration, on-street parking on Fair
Oaks Avenue is inappropriate. A short portion of Fair Oaks Avenue has been widened to
an extent that could accommodate on-street parking, but this is undesirable due to friction
with travel lanes and infeasibility of widening other segments approaching the freeway
bridge. Thus, some reconstruction of the northeast comer of Station Way and Fair Oaks
could allow for expansion of car sales display, while enforcing removal of vehicles from
intended. sidewalk or parkway areas to the north and east adjoining Mullahey Ford.
Future street trees could be a part of this future enhancement of Fair Oaks and Station
Way, perhaps concurrent with signalization of Traffic Way and Fair Oaks Avenue
intersection and possible future restriping to three lanes with bike lanes.
In the block of Traffic Way between Allen Street and East Cherry Avenue, the existing
four lane configuration should again transition to a new three lane section with a
dedicated left turn lane at Cherry Avenue. As soon as possible, an additional lane of
pavement is proposed to be added to the south edge of Cherry Avenue within the existing
right of way, eliminating illegal shoulder parking. This additional lane would
accommodate a right and a left turn lane westbound on Cherry Avenue, as well as"a new
eastbound through lane. The new pavement would transition back to the restricted two
lanes with no parking on either side east of the swim club parking lot driveway nearest
Traffic Way.
South of East Cherry Avenue, Traffic Way would be restriped to three lanes with the two
way left turn painted median extended to the South Traffic Way intersection and the
freeway 101 on and off-ramps. South Traffic Way would be reconfigured to provide a
short left turn pocket, as well as right turn lane at Traffic Way intersection and the
Freeway 101 on and off-ramps. The three lane configuration on Traffic Way would tend to
slow northbound off-ramp traffic into a single travel lane and includes a new landscaped
bulb-out and monument entry sign in front of the Mobil station between driveways.
Another optional proposal of the TWSP is future reconstruction of the short segment of
East Cherry Avenue between Traffic Way and Bedlow Lane from a dead end
conventional street configuration into an employee parking area with a central two way
aisle and diagonal parking spaces on both sides. Bedlow Lane is actually an alley, which
does not have adequate width for parking or loading within the right of way, but does
provide access to private parking or loading and connects to East Cherry and Fair Oaks
Avenue.

While the TWSP would create significant enhancements to the Traffic Way corridor,
implementation of all phases is recommended to be delayed pending allocation of funding
for installation of new trees, as well as funding and manpower associated with the
maintenance of additional trees. The Parks Division staff is currently lacking adequate
resources to maintain additional trees proposed along Traffic Way. Staff will be proposing
funding for increased maintenance for Traffic Way and Village trees during the 2007-08
budget hearings to begin in May. Grant funds awarded to the Tree Guild to assist in tree
purchases stipulate that we have until October of 2007 to expend funds. Staff is
recommending implementation of additional tree planting be delayed until after budget
approval expected in June 2007. Street restriping across the Traffic Way bridge including
Station Way, Nelson Street, Bridge Street and Poole Street intersections would be
implemented as soon as possible following Omni Means review and funding for estimated
restriping costs.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) It is recommended that the City Council consider the Traffic Way Streetscape
Plan (TWSP), including street tree planting program, for approval and
implementation as recommended by the Parks and Recreation Commission
and Traffic Commission;
2) Provide direction to staff.

locating some property where a dog park could exist and suggested the walking area
behind the Arroyo Grande Community Hospital. Director Hernandez stated that a
proposal had been made to develop that area. He did not think there was any land
dedication except for the creek easement, which would not be very usable. Director
Hernandez stated there were other proposals coming forward but none with any useful
areas for a dog park.
Commissioner Lozano confirmed that any area used would need to be fenced.
Director Hernandez stated that was preferabie. Commissioner Lozano asked if there

opportunity to observe an area in San Luis Obispo recently and noticed trees every
several feet on Pacific Street. He stated in his opinion trees invite people; trees do not
hinder business.
Marie Cattoir, property owner of 401 Traffic Way, did not support the plan. She stated
she felt aesthetics was taking precedence over safety and would result in punitive
measures against the business owners. Mrs. Cattoir gave some history on property
line problems relating to visibility.
Gary Scherquist, Tree Guild member, stated he was an architect in Arroyo Grande and
worked with Scott Dowlan and Kristen Barneich on the project so is a supporter of the
project. He stated many concerns were considered before deciding where trees would
be planted. He stated they planned to use root barriers and use deep watering
procedures to prevent any sidewalk problems. He also stated all the locations for
planting trees could be reviewed again.
Commissioner Harrison stated trees would make Traffic Way a nicer area but felt that
the business owners should have some say on where the trees were planted.
Commissioner Lozano did not support the plan and stated he would hate to be
involved with a city project where there would be dissension among property owners
related to the project. He stated he was not convinced that trees were needed in
areas where people had their businesses, especially if those people did not want
them. Commissioner Lozano stated he felt the plan needed to be fine-tuned before he
could support it.
,
Commissioner Addison confirmed that Phase 1 consisted of planting 12 trees.
Director Hernandez stated there were eight trees being considered along Traffic Way
and up to four trees at the Fire Station. Commissioner Addison asked if Phase 1 could
be separated from the Master Plan, since those trees did not affect the businesses
currently opposed to it. Director Hernandez stated the Commission could make any
recommendation it wanted and gave an example.
A discussion was held regarding how Phase 1 would affect Mr. Mullahey's business.
Commissioner Addison stated he was in favor of proceeding with Phase 1. as long as
there was no direct objection to it, and tabling Phases 2 and 3 since they were not
funded.
Chairperson lanneo commented that she walked the Traffic Way area every morning
and had noticed things that needed attention. She also commented that she did not
like the way Traffic Way looked when exiting the freeway onto Traffic Way from
northbound 101. Chairperson lanneo'stated in her opinion there were many other
things that needed attention on Traffic Way before the addition of trees. She stated
she supported Phase 1 but felt more discussion should take place prior to Phases 2
and 3 being implemented.
Commissioner Addison asked if it wouid be appropriate to approve Phase 1 without
Phases 2 and 3. Director Hernandez stated the Commission was free to make any
recommendation it felt necessary, and that information would be passed on to the City
Council.
Commissioner. Lozano stated he believed the business owners and the Tree Guild
needed to discuss Phases 2 and 3 to see what they would like to do.
Upon motion/second by Commissioners Lozano/Harrison it was recommended to the
City Council to approve a Tree Master Plan for Traffic Way proposed by the Tree Guild

ATTACHMENT 2
MEMORANDUM
TO: PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
DAN HERNANDEZ, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION
FROM: ROB STRONG, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR ~
SUBJECT: TRAFFIC WAY STREETSCAPE PLAN
DATE: SEPTEMBER 28, 2006
The City Council requested that the Tree Guild street tree planting proposals and Public
Work~ Department's restriping proposals be coordinated and expanded into a Traffic Way
"$treetscape" Plan, including Community Development Department proposals. Staff has .
been able to meet with some, but not all of the business and property owners along the
affected street frontages and the preliminary plans include some refinements and
~ alternatives which may be discussed and resolved during advisory reviews and public
meetings.
The first such public preview is scheduled for Parks and Recreation Commission regular
meeting 6:30 p.m., Wednesday, October 11, 2006, at which time Assistant Planner, Jim
Bergman, will present the plan and Kristen Barnich, of the Tree Guild. will explain their
concept and proposals. Unfortunately both Rob Strong and Dan Hernandez will be out of
town on that date, so presentation and response to questions may need to be continued.
It would be beneficial for Parks and Recreation Commission to receive, review, and
comment on the preliminary plans and to enable initial public and Tree Guild input. The
first phase of ten (10) street tree planting was completed this spring/summer and the
second phase grant enables an additional twenty (20) street trees this fall/winter. A third
and final (future) fourth phase are also indicated on the plan, in part because of current
constraints prevent earlier implementation and in some instances because implementation
cannot be cooperatively pursued without future redevelopment of potential use and/or site
planning and substantial new construction being accomplished concurrently.
The presentation will explain some of these current constraints and concerns of several
business and property owners as well as some apparent opportunities which will require
further planning and design refinement. The intent of the preliminary plan is to facilitate
discussion and input, particularly from the affected properties and other interested groups
and advisory bodies.
Parks and Recreation Commission comments will be reported to Traffic Commission,
ARC, Planning Commission, and any other interested groups or individuals as the Traffic
Way Streetscape Plan proceeds, including presentation of the proposed plan to the City
Council at their October 24, 2006 meeting.
