MEMORANDUM TO: CITY COUNCIL FROM: DON SPAGNOLO, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS/CITY ENGINEER ~ SUBJECT; CONSIDERATION OF ACCEPTANCE OF IMPROVEMENTS FOR TRACT 2265 DATE: APRIL 9, 2002 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended the Council adopt the Resolution accepting improvements, offers of dedication. and easements within Tract 2265. FUNDING: There is no immediate fiscal impact. Maintenance of these facilities will be funded from Public Works maintenance funds in future years. DISCUSSION: Tract 2265 is located on the north side of James Way as shown in Exhibit 1. The final map for this tract was approved by the Council on August 8, 2000 and was subsequently recorded on August 23, 2000. The required improvements have been constructed and the developer is required to warranty the improvements for a period of one year. Staff has inspected the improvements and recommends that the Council accept the improvements and the offers of dedication. Lot 41 of Tract 2265 has been graded and prepared for a future elementary school site. The Lucia Mar Unified School District was contacted in regards to the acceptance of the tract improvements. The School District indicated that the current improvements associated with Lot 41 are satisfactory. Erosion control has been a concern during construction of Tract 2265 and will be periodically checked until all landscape vegetation has reached a satisfactory level of maturity to prevent erosion. Staff estimates the costs for the ongoing erosion control ofthe site to be within the 10% warranty bond amount. The roadways for Tract 2265 were subjected to extensive construction traffic resulting in numerous stains, patches, and premature aging. The developer has agreed to place an oil seal coat over all proposed public roads for the tract; however, due to the continued home construction, the oil seal coat will not be applied until the completion of the one year warranty period. -- CITY COUNCIL ACCEPTANCE OF IMPROVEMENTS FOR TRACT 2265 APRIL 9, 2002 PAGE 2 AL TERNA TIVES: The following alternatives are provided for the Council's consideration: - Approve staffs recommendation; - Do not approve staffs recommendation; - Modify as appropriate and approve staffs recommendation; or - Provide direction to staff.

Gentlemen; For the past 19 years the City of Arroyo Grande has hosted the fund raising event Walk America. We raise money for research of the over 3000 birth defects that prevent babies from being born healthy. For most of these years we have started and finished our walk at the green space on Nelson & Short Streets. Our event starts with assembly at about 6:30AM and we conclude with a BBQ lunch from about 11:30AM to 2:PM. Over the years our event has grown to a point where we will walk nearly 600 people. These people come from businesses such as MidState Bank, K Mart, Ralph's, to name a few. Large or small they are the ones who make up our community. In teams of employees, family members and friends, they walk 10 miles and have raised close to $400,000. . Our City receives National prominence in the publications the March of Dimes provides. We are about 95% volunteer driven and return over 75% of every dollar to the cause. In the past a temporary use permit was $20.00. We recognize and appreciate the contribution the City makes in allowing us to conduct our event. We are afforded many 'extras' and are sure that $20.00 does not cover them. But on behalf of our goal, to insure that every baby born is born healthy, we are requesting a waiver of the new fee of $105.00. T~d:Ad,mti= A.K.

MEMORANDUM TO: CITY COUNCIL FROM: DON SPAGNOLO, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS/CITY ENGINEER ttr SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF AN APPROPRIATION FROM THE DOWNTOWN PARKING FUND FOR THE SCENIC CREEKSIDE WALK THROUGH THE HISTORIC VILLAGE OF ARROYO GRANDE, PHASE III PROJECT DATE: APRIL 9, 2002 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended the Council appropriate $2,500 from the Downtown Parking Fund to be used for the design to reconfigure the Olohan Alley parking lot adjacent to the proposed Scenic Creekside Walk Through the Historic Village of Arroyo Grande, Phase III project. FUNDING: The FY 2001/02 projected year-end fund balance of the Downtown Park Fund is approximately $44,200. This $2,500 allocation will bring the year-end fund balance to $41,700. DISCUSSION: Phase III of the Scenic Creekside Walk Through the Historic Village of Arroyo Grande will consist of improving the bluff top walkway along the north bank of Arroyo Grande Creek between Bridge Street and Short Street. As part of the scoping process for the project, it was determined that there is an opportunity to expand the creek area adjacent to the proposed walk. In order to accomplish this, the Olohan Alley parking lot will need to be reconfigured. Staff has developed a preliminary layout of the parking lot accommodating the expanded creek area and it appears that there will be no loss of parking space. In fact, there may be an opportunity to add spaces. However, to fully determine the number of parking spaces within the parking lot, a preliminary design needs to be prepared. This $2,500 appropriation will be used for this effort. If it is determined that the proposed reconfiguration of the parking lot is desirable, additional Downtown Parking Funds may be requested to accomplish the parking lot redesign. The Creekside Walk project is being funded through a grant from the San Luis Obispo Council of Governments. These grants are earmarked for non-motorized enhancements and cannot be used for improvements to the parking lot. Therefore, in order to expand the creek area, other funds would need to be added to the project that can be used for improvements to the parking lot. ------,,-------. CONSIDERATION OF AN APPROPRIATION FROM THE DOWNTOWN PARKING FUND APRIL 9, 2002 PAGE 2 The Downtown Parking Advisory Committee considered the proposed parking lot reconfiguration at their March 26, 2002 meeting and approved an expenditure of an amount not to exceed $2,500 for a preliminary engineering layout.

Branch Street Arroyo Grande, California 93420 Publish 1 Time on March 29, 2002 MEMORANDUM TO: CITY COUNCIL FROM: ROB STRONG, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR ~S , BY: TERESA MCCLISH, ASSOCIATE PLANNER SUBJECT: APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION'S APPROVAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT CASE NO. 02-004, TRANSITIONS MENTAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION; 202 VERNON STREET DATE: APRIL 9, 2002 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council adopt the attached resolution upholding the decision of the Planning Commission of February 19, 2002 to approve Conditional Use Permit 02-004 for the operation of an adult day care facility in the Single Family Residential District. FUNDING: No fiscal impact. DISCUSSION: The Planning Commission considered this item after public hearing on February 19, 2002 and approved the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) based on the fact that all the findings could be made in an affirmative manner (reference Attachment 1 for Planning Commission meeting minutes and staff report). On March 1, 2002, the Principal of the Valley View Adventist Academy and a group of residential neighbors filed appeals stating that they are in opposition to a day care facility for mentally disabled adults being located in a residential neighborhood and near a school (Attachment 2). Specifically, the appellants believe that such an adult day care facility should be located within a commercial or office district similar to medical and related health services. Transitions Mental Health Association applied for a permit to continue to operate their Safe Haven Social Rehabilitation Day Program for disabled, mentally ill adults. Transitions operates eight different programs throughout the County. The Safe Haven program has operated in Arroyo Grande since 1980 in residential neighborhoods within the Village Commercial and Office Districts. Several neighbors of the previous location indicated that the facility had no adverse impact on the neighborhood. The purpose of the Safe Haven program is to provide a non-institutional environment conducive to social rehabilitation and community integration. ---~------,.,--~ CITY COUNCIL APPEAL OF TRANSITIONS CUP 02-004 APRIL 9, 2002 PAGE 2 Since the Planning Commission hearing, the City has received approximately thirty letters in support of the appeal (Attachment 3). Below are responses to concerns raised by the public. . The CUP allows the operation of the Safe Haven program only, and if a change were requested, the applicant would have to amend their CUP. Transitions clientele are not violent criminals or sex offenders. . The program runs from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM four days a week and from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM on Wednesdays. Transitions staff are present at all times. . A van transports Transitions clientele to and from the project site. According to the City's traffic guidelines, there is no traffic impact to the neighborhood. . Properties within a 300-foot radius were sent three notices regarding the project. Please refer to Attachment 4. . There are two types of Adult Day Care facilities specified by the California Health and Safety Code; adult day health care and adult day care. Adult day health care facilites provide limited medical and nursing services and psychiatric and psychological counseling in addition to social rehabilitation. Each are treated differently in terms of zoning requirements and provisions by various cities in the County and in California. Development Code section 16.32.04A lists "Large Family Daycare (seven or more children)", subject to specific use development standards and permit requirements outlined in sections 16.52.120 and 16.16.190. Despite these special provisions, some interpretation is required due to references to childcare and children versus other types of day care for adults or elderly. The Community Development Director is authorized to approve large family day care permits, subject to appeal, without a public hearing, but in this case required a Conditional Use Permit involving a Planning Commission public hearing. The Planning Commission's approval of this use permit has been appealed to the City Council. If the Council wishes to address public concerns regarding constant supervision of clients by Transitions staff, the following modification can be made to Condition of Approval No.4: 4. Hours of operation are restricted to Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 10:00AM to 2:00PM and on Wednesdays from 4:00PM to 8:00PM unless otherwise approved by the Community Development Director. Transitions staff shall supervise clientele on and off-site at all times during the hours of oDeration. No outdoor activities may take place before 8:00AM or after 6:00PM. Additionally, to further ensure that the proposed use will not impair the integrity and character of the Single Family Residential District, the Council may wish to amend Condition of Approval No.3 as Follows: 3. The Planning Commission shall review the Conditional Use Permit in one year from the approval date (Februarv 19, 2002) to determine compliance with Conditions of Approval and to ensure that the use has not impaired the integrity and character of the CITY COUNCIL APPEAL OF TRANSITIONS CUP 02.Q04 APRIL 9, 2002 PAGE 3 surroundinQ residential district.

PUBLIC HEARING - Conditional Use Permit Case No. 02-004; Applicant - Transitions, Mental Health Association; Location - 202 Vernon Street. Staff Report by Teresa McClish. Ms. McClish said the applicant is requesting approval of the conditional use permit to allow an adult day care to provide social rehabilitation services to disabled mentally ill adults in a residential neighborhood. The applicant proposes to serve nine clients on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and has amended the application to have a maximum of 14, not 17 clients, on Wednesday evenings from 4:00 - 8:00 p.m. Transitions has operated in Arroyo Grande for over 15 years on both LePoint Street and ----.- MINUTES Page 9 PLANNING COMMISSION FEBRUARY 19, 2002 subsequently on Mason Street. Daycare facilities are an allowable use in residential Districts however the Development Code does not have specific requirements for adult day care facilities and this is why the applicant is required to apply for a Conditional Use Permit. Ms. McClish highlighted the conditions of approval including improvements and parking requirements. She said the applicant is requesting an exception to the undergrounding utilities and curb, gutter and sidewalk requirements. Public Comment Barry Johnson, Program Director spoke saying they had been operating in Arroyo Grande for 20 years. He further described the type of clients that would be visiting the facility, saying they are community members and the program provides social support and provides an outlet for the participants to do self advocacy, learn independent living skills, volunteer in the community and allows them to reintegrate into the community and graduate back into society to attend school and work, A van provides transportation to the program and they will be providing the parking required. There would not be a lot of traffic, only one or two trips a day to the facility. The average number of clients on any given day would be approximately eight or nine. He asked that people who were at the meeting in support of the program stand up. Twenty people stood to show support. He then read a letter from Patricia Price, 138 Whitely, a neighbor from their former location in support of the project and in addition he presented a petition from others who were in support, but had left earlier because it was so late. Planning Commission concerns: 1. Was a Conditional Use Permit required for the other facilities in Arroyo Grande. 2. How are clients screened. 3. Was there much police activity at the other facilities. 4. Will the facility be leased or bought, 5. Where would the van to transport clients normally be stored. 6. Would there be any other kinds of activities at the site to cause more trips. 7, Besides the "Rehabilitation Day Program" are they proposing to have any other programs at the residence. Mr. Johnson replied- 1. A Conditional Use Permit was not required previously at the other sites. 2. The referral process involves diagnosis, past history. Persons with sexually violent history are not allowed into the residential programs. 3. There was no police activity at the previous facilities and no complaints. 4. The facility is to be leased. 5. The van is normally stored at their main office in San Luis Obispo. 6. Once a year they may have open house or a guest speaker to provide instruction now and again. MINUTES Page 10 PLANNING COMMISSION FEBRUARY 19, 2002 7. No other program would be utilized at this time and they would have to come back to the City to request a change if they wanted to add any other programs. Rae Belle Gambs, President, National Alliance for Mentallv III, said she lived in San Luis Obispo for 17 years, directly behind the Transitions Mental Health group home and there was never a problem with them. Linda DeBlauw, 275 Larchmont Drive. Arrovo Grande, said she lives right next door to the proposed project and was strongly opposed to it. She said she was afraid of the mentally ill because they do things completely out of character. In addition, she said there was a school close by and she had a concern about children being around mentally ill people, and the potential increase in traffic; other people in the neighborhood are also concerned about this. Michele Cochran, 200 S. Mason Street. Arrovo Grande, said she lived directly across the street from the former Transitions residence. At first, she had been concerned because she had an 11-year-old daughter, but there was never a single problem with them in the six years they were there. She said she wished all her neighbors were as good as they were and she thought the community could do with more programs like this to reach out to people. She and her husband were in full support of this program. Claire Clark. 562 Crown Hill. Arrovo Grande, said she lives right next door to Paulding School and she believes Transitions would be a similar neighbor in their predictability. Over the years, she kept her eye on the Mason Street property (former residence of Transitions); it was always kept in good condition, and looked just like any other neighbor from the outside. Jason Cox. member of Safe Haven program, stated how important the program has been to him and that it really does work. Sam DeTraglia, member of Safe Haven DrOgram, said he had been attending the program since 1988 and it has been very helpful to him in many areas of his life. He said since October 2001 they have not had a permanent place to attend. Jennifer Rose 801 S. Halcvon #20. Arrovo Grande, member of Safe Haven, said she had learned independent living skills and social support in a non-judgmental safe environment. She said they had prepared meals for Growing Grounds, People's Kitchen and Prado Day-Care center. Rebecca DeLa Rosa Crist, 215 Garden Street, Arrovo Grande, property owner of 202 Vernon, said there is an empty lot between the DeBlauw's house and this property. She further stated that she has a sister who was diagnosed with a mental illness and because of this program, has come a long way. She said it is a wonderful program, and the clients give to the neighborhood and we should give something back to them. J.T. Haas, 9360 Carmel Road, Atascadero, President of the Board of Transitions Mental Health Assoc., said he works for PG&E and Transitions approached the company to start a Transitions-run garden on some land next to a substation (Growing Grounds Farm). At first PG&E had some concern, but he had been involved with this program since 1984 and said they are wonderful folk and there is nothing to be fearful of. Jill Bolster-White, 3111 Los Osos Vallev Road, Executive Director of Transitions. said she could assure the neighbors that they have a very good history of being good MINUTES Page 11 PLANNING COMMISSION FEBRUARY 19,2002 neighbors and plan to keep that up. We would like to overcome the stigma and we make an extra effort to do this. End of Public Comment The Planning Commission said they had no further concerns and believed this program would be beneficial to the community and would not significantly increase traffic or parking and it would not be harmful to the neighborhood. They further stated that Transitions has had a good track record for the past 20 years and they could support this program.

For a detailed description of the "Safe Haven" program, please refer to the applicant's letter in Attachment 1. Staff Advisorv Committee The SAC reviewed the project on January 22, 2002 and discussed issues of parking, undergrounding of utilities, curb gutter and sidewalk and how the California Health and Safety Code pertains to the application (reference Attachment 2 for meeting notes). The applicant is requesting an exception to the City's undergrounding and curb, gutter and sidewalk requirements (reference Attachment 1 pg. 2 of the applicant's letter). DISCUSSION: Development Code The application is for an Adult Day Care, which is similar in use to a Large Family Day Care facility, an allowable use in residential districts. Large Family Day Care facilities are allowed subject to a minor use permit.. Initially, staff processed Transition's application with a minor use permit and noticed neighbors of the project site accordingly. After receiving many letters in opposition to the project, and after reviewing a survey of other cities in California and finding that the majority address Adult Day Care facilities through the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process, a CUP was required for the subject application. The applicant proposes to serve nine clients on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays and has amended his application to have a Maximum of 14 clients on Wednesdays from 4-8 pm. Transitions has operated in Arroyo Grande for over 1 5 years on LePoint Street and subsequently on Mason Street. The applicant has submitted photos of the Mason Street building to show that the residence was maintained in good condition while occupied by Transitions (Attachment 3).

EXHIBIT "A" GROUNDS FOR APPEAL 1. Staff initially informed the public that applicant was "Transitions", and the project was a "Large Day Care 01-001 to allow for the operation of a social support groups facility for disabled adults", and processed the application as a minor use pennit. (See Exhibit A-I attached hereto.) Due to strong opposition from the neighbors, this process was aborted. 2. The applicant is actually "Transitions Mental Health Association", and the project now applied for is a "Conditional Use Permit . to allow an Adult Day Care to provide social rehabilitation services to disabled, mentally ill adults. in a residential neighborhood." (See Staff Report to Planning Commission dated February 19, 2002.) 3. Prior to the processing of the applicant's current application, staff surveyed other cities in California and found that they all address Adult Day Care facilities through the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process. However, none of the cities surveyed allow such use in a Single Family Residential (SF) zone. (See Exhibit A-2 attached hereto, which evidences that the City of Cerritos only allows such use in a Light Industrial Zone; the City of Gardena only allows such use in Multiple Dwelling, Public and Semipublic Facilities. and Local Servicing Commercial Districts; and the City of Garden Grove only allows such use in Commercial Zones (Cl, C2, and C3).) 4. Health and Safety Code Section 1597.40 has absolutely no application to the subject project. That section only applies to 'family day 1 -_._.-..._.._".._-_...._~.__..- care homes for children." Such facilities "should be situated in normal residential surroundings so as to give children the home environment which is conducive to healthy and safe development." (See Exhibit A-3 attached hereto.) 5. Section 16.52.120 of the Arroyo Grande Development Code likewise has absolutely no application to the subject project. That section is merely the local ordinance which implements the State law dealing with day care homes for children. Accordingly, the development standards contained therein are inapposite to the proposed project which contemplates a facility for disabled adults. 6. The proposed project is in the Single Family Residential zone. Table 9-06.040-A of the Arroyo Grande Development Code prohibits use comparable to the proposed project in that Boarding/Rooming Houses (A9.). Senior Independent Living Uses (AI0.). Congregate Care, Assisted Living (A 11.), and Convalescent Care (AI2.) uses are not permitted in uses in the Single Family Residential zone. 7. Consistent therewith it is appellants' understanding that the two previous locations of Transitions Mental Health Association within the City of Arroyo Grande were not in a Single Family Residential zone, but were both in a Commercial Office zone. 8. The proposed project should be located within the Commercial Office zone as a permitted use in either General Commercial. Village Commercial or Office Professional. as a medical and related heath services for humans as authorized in section A.6. of Table 9-07.030-A of the Arroyo Grande Development Code. 9. It is the appellants' further understanding that the City of Arroyo 2 ------------.------- ----_."----- Grande Planning Commission and Staff have plans to conduct a workshop to discuss the need to amend the zoning ordinance to accommodate locations for such businesses as the applicant.

As part of the Large Day Care Permit process, property owners within 300 feet must be notified of said application. The application is available for review at the Community Development Department office in City Hall, at 214 E. Branch Street.

Conditions are made as part of the approval to protect the surrounding neighborhood from impacts relating to noise, traffic, parking, spacing and concentration. The Community Development Director must make the following findings in order to approve the application: 1. The proposed large family day care home complies with the standards, restrictions, and requirements contained in Section 9-11.110 of the Development EXHiBIT ~'A"- I MEMORANDUM . TO: ROB STRONG, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR FROM: TERESA MCCLISH, ASSOCIATE PLANNER DATE: DECEMBER 18, 2001 RE: LARGE DA YCARE PERMIT FOR ADULT DAY CARE - VERNON ST. We noticed residences in the neighborhood of a proposed adult day care at 202 Vernon St. (The last requested application was withdrawn due to pressure on the proposed landlord from neighbors.) We received several letters (not as many as before) opposing the use. We have been processing this as a Large Day Care facility (allowable in residential districts) because our code doesn't have a specific permit requirement for adult day care. However, I just found a League of CA cities summary from last summer with many cities indicating they require CUP's. "'"'-'1"''>"> f,,,,V\ v\"o we.: <: CJ.,,~ For the subject site, parking is an issu.!'l\although they use a van to transport clients and staff. According to our parking requirements (for daycares/schools) we would require 5 off street spaces, they propose one. Otherwise, for a residential area, the site is well located, being adjacent to a school, and across from the Community Center. I'm not sure if we should kick this application up to a CUP. I'll call in Wed. to discuss. EXHIBIT ~"A""'2. _.------ --~-_. ,'-' ,'. Tere$a McClish'- ~equesrtorlnformat" via ListSerVe . ~".,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,~~,=-~,,,~,--,. - ..,',., ...

" Feb. 27,2002 l\rroyo Grande, 93420 To Arroyo Grande City Council From Travis and Katherine Evans 270 Larchmont Drive, A. G. 93420 Dear Council Members: We believe the wishes of the residents of our neighborhood are being ignored, or worse yet, the neighbors and the public are being decieved by the actions of the City Planning Commission. When we were first notified in Dec. 2001 of a proposed project at 2002 Vernon it was labelled as a large day care facility. The entire neighborhood objected to the proposal for several valid reasons'. A public hearing was held, which was in realality a sham, for the neighbors concern was barely considered since there were only seven opposing letters recieved and there were at least ten in favor. After some research, we find there are only two letters in favor on file at City Hall. And those are not from nearby residents. And now, at the eleventh hour, we find that this is to be a mental health care facility, not just a large day care facility as originally posted. We cannot believe our City fathers would betray us by allowinga business in a residential area, where other businesses have been denied. And a business for mentally handicapped at that! On the only street leading to a school only two hundred feet distance! A school with children from kindergarten age to teen . agers! What are we thinking of? Must we risk another Polly Klass or Danielle Van Damme tragedy? We are respectfully asking the Council to hear the voices of the affected citizens, and deny the proposal at 202 Vernon. And wouldn't it be nice to get the whole truth from the City Planning group at the very beginning of a proposal. Thank you for hearing our concerns. ~ . ~ fIatJw f? ~ T~avis and Katherine Evans \1.MJ.t4. ,'I/kz...<. ~ ;t-J(J;.' , . ~c.-~~~_ ~(,_t.P~~AGJ a.....

The proposal to bring an adult day care facility into close proximity to Valley View Adventist Jr. Academy was looked at with strong disfavor by our school board last night, February 28, 2002. We understand the need for adult care in our Arroyo Grande community is important. However, the concerns that were shared by our Valley View Adventist Academy School Board were: 1. Parent and faculty concern for the safety of Valley View Adventist Academy students. 2. Concern for additional traffic congestion on an already busy avenue, with .traffic to the Valley View Children's Center, Valley View Adveritist Jr. Academy, and the Women's Center. 3. Recognition of our neighbors' concerns for an adult care facility for mentally challenged with possible risks for neighborhood children as well students of Valley View Children's Centerand Valley View Adventist . Academy. 4. We urge the city council to follow city-zoning codes for commercial and , residential property. Since this area is residential, the VV AA Board believes the integrity of the zoning codes should be followed. We do not believe this is a good location for this adult care center for the above stated reasons. Thank you for keeping our concerns in mind ,as you take action on this proposed adult day care center. Sincerely yours, , idl1c/ If+ ' L. Meidinger VV AA Principal Arpad Soo, .

Box 550 Arroyo Grande, CA 93421 Attn: Teresa McClish Re: Conditional Use Permit Case #02-004 at 202 Vernon St. Being new homeowners in your fair city of Arroyo Grande, we were somewhat surprised when we moved in that the home at 202 Vernon St. has been approved for it to inhabit up to 14 mentally impaired people. We cannot understand how such a small house with very little parking can accommodate so many people. Personally we don't think this establish- ment is right for what it has been approved. Please reconsider your decision on this matter. The purchase of our house was based on the neighborhood being family oriented.

City of Arroyo Grande 214 E. Branch Arroyo Grande, CA 93420 Attn: Mike lady Re: Large Day Care No. 02-(J()4 permit for operating of a social support group facility for disabled adults at 202 Vernon, AG It has come to our attention that an application to locate the above in a Rl zoned area of Arroyo Grande is once again an issue. Why this is even a consideration is beyond us. When you buy a home in an Rl zoning you should have the confidence that the city in which you live will comply with that zoning. This should not even be an issue. The above is a business! It is not a Single Family Residence. Why do we have zoning??? The Vernon St. area of AG has a constant flow of traffic with no sidewalks. Unless the people participating were completely confined to that residence in a fenced environment as is a Child Day Care Center it could be very dangerous. I (Judy) /ileand work in the Village of AG and have seen persons from the group walking alone in the Village on a daily bosis when they were located on Mason Street. They were certainly unsupervised as they were alone and more than a block from the residence. This practice would seem to be extremely dangerous at the Vernon St. locotion. Given that this is also a very hilly area. It is not right that any neighbor should be responsible for one of the Disabled Adults falling on their property with the patential of being seriously hurt. We realize that it has been stated many times that these residence do not wonder unsupervised. That is just not the case!! This issue and the fact that it is a single-family residential area should be in itself enough to deny the permit. We are strongly opposed to the location of a large Day Care/Disabled Adults Facility in any single-family/RI zoned neighborhood in Arroyo Grande.

O. Box 550 Anoyo Grande, CA 93421 Attencion: Mr. Tom Rune1s and All City Council Members Dear Mayor Mike Lady, Rob Strong and all Council Members: We are opposed to Transicions Mental Health Associacion's use of 202 Vernon Street .because of safety concerns of the location. There are no sidewalks on West Branch Street from 202 Vernon St. to Bank of America if on occasion the clients should want to walk to the Village of Anoyo Grande. The area was not designed for pedestrian traffic. The streets are to narrow for cat's and Pedestrians. If the residents park their cars in front of their homes, there is not room for two cars to pass and a pedestrian. There are stop sing> on West Branch and Vernon but no crosswalk, there is a stop sign on West Branch and Grand Ave. but no Cross Walk. On Larchmont Dr. the street is narrow, if cars are parked in front of the homes on both sides of the street there isn't room for two cars to pass in opposite direccions. This happens during the Strawberry Fescival and Harvest Festival or when the neighbors have company and they park on the street and there are no sidewalks except behind the Bank of America. . The traffic has tripled sense the K-mart and Wall-Mart shopping centers have opened adding to the dangers to pedestrian traffic. Traffic would also increase for people dropping off or picking up. WHAT IF A pacient gets away from an attendant and bothers a neighbor, what will happen? This change will also de-value the property of the neighborhood. The area is zoned R-l for a reason and it should stay that way. We own a business that we could fit into our garage nicely. With the zoning change, we can now plan to move to our garage, sense traffic and safety DOES NOT seem to be a concern. On the other hand, I may start a day care center in my home. Does this mean any neighbor can do this? There are other neighborhoods in Anoya Grande that are more suitable for this type of business. Sincerely, ~~vYU- ay~ y~ Charles C. and Kay E.

I do not live in the immediate area of the proposed dwelling, but my children are often in the very near vicinity of the proposed house. Having mental health patients near my small children or anyone else's is very unsettling. I would hate to have something hapPen to either one of my children. Furthermore, having a group like this in an established residential neighborhood is sure to lower the property values. When people purchase their homes in a residential zoned neighborhood they expect it to stay as such. Should an institution such as the one proposed come into the neighborhood the current homeowners would have to disclose this to any prospective buyer. In my opinion this would discourage any potential buyers and lower property values. I live in a residential area of Arroyo Grande and I would not be in favor of an Association such as this coming into my neighborhood. I have been a full time real estate agent since 1987 in the Five Cities area. It is my professional opinion that an establishment, such as the one proposed should, be in an area where the usage is compatible to the zoning.

I am concerned about the safety of the school children at the Adventist Schools and our neighborhood. I have had many years of first hand experience with mentally ill people, as my ex-wife has paranoid schizophrenia. I lived with her for 12 years and has 2 sons. The last 4 years of my life with her was a nightmare. With her medication she was better, but there are times that she still would have bizarre uncontrollable behavior.

They recently tried and failed to get a pennit for a house on Garden Street. This group is using the words day care to get their pennit. We can tell you that these are NOT children they are adults. Are they trying to get in with false information? They previously were at the corner of Nelson and Mason. We live 2 blocks ITom that location. Since they were our neighbors for many years we can assure each of you their facility was not an asset to the neighborhood. - There were many cars ITom staff members who came and went during the day. County cars seemed to be there often, including vans. This group of people did a lot of walking during the day. Transitions applied for and was granted by your city staff a pennit for a day care facility in a single family home, zoned R-I at Larchmont and Vernon streets. Which is now being appealed. Since the development of the Wal-Mart shopping center the traffic on these streets has increased by hundreds of cars who now use these streets to avoid the stop sign at West Branch and Grand Ave. at the Shell Station. There are NO sidewalks along these streets. When we have traveled Larchmont and there are cars parked on both sides ofthe street only one car can pass at a time. Frankly we are surprised that Transitions would even consider this location due to the safety issues. The amount of vehicle traffic on these streets makes it too dangerous for walking. I bet the City of Arroyo Grande will be the first mentioned in a lawsuit when one of their people gets hit by a car. It won't be if but when someone gets hit. This group is taking care of mentally challenged people who may make a misstep since there are no sidewalks for their safety. If our city council doesn't vote against this, you will be starting a president that will ruin our single family neighborhoods. Zoning is in place so that it is clear what kind of property we are buying. When we choose an R-I property we assume that our city is going to follow the rules. With an R-I we should be able to assume that we will have neighbors who are family orientated. Not a facility with a large group of adults who need to be taken care of. I am sure there are other pieces of property in our city or surrounding cities that are zoned for their needs.

The staff report for this proposal seems to make a comparison between the proposed use and a child day care facility. This is quite a stretch because the typical child care facility is li- censed for 6 children as opposed to the proposed facility which would house 14 adults. Children in a day care facility are confined to the home and yard however from personal experience I know this is not the case with adult care facilities. Several years ago I operated a business which was located in an industrial zone next door to such a facility and the patients were con- tinually leaving the home and wandering into neighboring businesses. Consider the impact on the neighbors of the extra traffic from transporting patients to and from the facility and from friends and relatives visiting the patients, not to mention emergency vehicle trips to the facility, The major impact is of course the lowering of values and marketability of the neighboring residential properties. Just for a moment, put yourself in the shoes of a prospective home buyer; if you were considering purchasing two similar homes and one was in a conforming sin- gle family residential neighborhood and the other was situated next to a facility such as the one proposed here, which would you choose? There is a need for such facilities in our community but there is also a place for them and surely it is not in a sinale family residential neighborhood. The PC zone or another commercial zone would be much more suitable for this facility. Pjease consider the detrimental impact to the neighbors if this use is approved. .j .

There is a need for the service this organization provides, however the location for this use should be an office or industrial type of setting. R-1 zoning is the backbone of Arroyo Grande's quality oflife and we count on the city council to protect us nom incompatible uses. Would you like this type of commercial use across the street nom your home? R-1 zoning should be sacred and we trust you will do the right thing and protect us by saying no to this incompetence use. There are alternatives that would allow this business to operate in Arroyo Grande in other appropriate zoning. Thank you in advance for your consideration in this matter and we hope that you will see the wisdom in protecting R-1 zoning for the citizens of Arroyo Grande. ti1L- ~a~ Dwayne K. Chisam Cynthia A.

This is a single-family residence located at 202 Vernon here in the village. The planning commission has many duties including amending the city plan; however, to ignore all previous decisions and capriciously set new precedent should not be one ofthem. Day-care centers are a needed and necessary part of our society. My children, (when they were young), and now my grandchildren need these services, and some of these "Daycare" providers do work out of their R-l zoned homes. The difference in this case is that the petitioners are asking for "Large Daycare" designation, which will allow them to have an unlimited number of unrelated individuals populating an R-l zoned'residence. . Throughout the state all "Large Daycare" have always been located in commercial zones only. There is plenty of commercial property readily available in Arroyo Grande. Let them operate there like all of the other "Large Daycare" providers in the state. Let's not set a new precedent here.

I am opposed to the use of the residential house on 202 Vernon St. for a Mental Health Facility. I personally have talked to Barry Johnson a couple oftimes and from my questions this is the information I obtained from him. The diagnoses of the patients enrolled in their program range from Manic-Depressive to Schizophrenia. According to Barry, "95% (if not all) of the patients are on medication for mental health treatment." If their medication is not monitored correctly some of their patients could have an increased potential to have delusions or hallucinations. These patients come voluntarily to their program, and in the same respect they can not be held against their will if they desire to leave. With this information, the thought of placing a Mental Health Facility like this near an elementary and preschool brings to mind a huge red flag. It is hard for me to believe that this would even be considered. I have worked as a Registered Nurse for 10 years prior to having my children. The reason for mentioning this is because like Barry and his group I also have compassion for people who are ill. I want you to know I am very supportive of the work he is doing, and it is a wonderful service he is providing; however, this service obviously could be provided in a different location and not in such close proximity to an elementary and pre-school. The house at 202 Vernon St is not the only place that will work for this facility. If the patients come from the Five Cities area then why not look at all Five Cities as potential sites. Something eventually would come up that would meet all of the requirements for their facility; It might be inconvenient for them to wait a little while longer, but in the long run that seems a better option than taking the risk of placing a Mental Health Facility so close to an elementary school setting. Thank-you for listening to my concerns. I hope you will consider some of them as you make your decision on this appeal. Sincerely, ~W/orz 8~ C; Cl~ ~c.&-.

It's a safe place for people with mental illness to come and socialize among friends with similar struggles. We learn independent living skills, such as cooking, baking, gardening and maintaining a home. We have social support in a non-judgmental, safe environment. The staff is great; we have hope here and a family. - I was very shocked when we appeared in front of the City Planning Commission and heard how the neighbors that appealed our Conditional Use Permit assumed we were criminals and sexual predators! This could not be further from the truth and was offensive to everyone affiliated with the Transitions program. I've never met more wonderful people than those at Safe Haven. They are so sweet and gentle. I've worked all my life up to my breakdown several years ago, and have been on both sides of the fence. This group of people is so precious and gentle--much better than most people I've met in the work force. I think it's regrettable that this level of stigma and ignorance still exists in today's "enlightened" society. It saddens us that you fear us.

We are 79 and 75 years old respectfully, and recognize the need for such faciliies. However we are strongly opposed to a day care center at this location .for the following reasons. First, everything e~st of the Community Building, (Women's Club) is residential. We believe it should remain that way. Second, because of the Womens Club, the Valley View School, and Adventist Church at the top of Vernon Ave., the streets are already heavily travelled. Many times the Community parking lot and both streets are parked full on both sides of the intersection. At times we offer free parking in our yard. Thirdly,. We believe elderly ahd handicapped people should have easy acess in and out of buildings, bathrooms, parking lots, etc. There is no way this hillside property could offer that. If this area is to be kept residential, as it presently is, we simply cannot allow the doors to be opened for commercial enterprise. I believe the majority of the area residents will agree. Therefore, we' respectfully request that the Large Day Care permit 01-001 be denied. Sincerely; _ . t.. J /l.;/ ~t.-CZ~(] b', '(:1.,0:1~/'J.- - . .I? j Tra~is O. And Katherinp.

TO: ROB STRONG, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR FROM: TERESA MCCLISH, ASSOCIATE PLANNER - DATE: DECEMBER 18,2001 RE: LARGE DAYCARE PERMIT FOR ADULT DAY CARE - VERNON ST. We noticed residences in the neighborhood of a proposed adult day care at 202 Vernon St. (The last requested application was withdrawn due to pressure on the proposed landlord from neighbors.) We received several letters (not as many as before) opposing the use. We have been processing this as a Large Day Care facility (allowable in residential districts) because our code doesn't have a specific permit requirement for adult day care. However, I just found a League of CA cities summary from last summer with many cities indicating they require CUP's. ~s..:. ~v-..~. \/""s~...::,: 0;.. c..L~ For the subject site, parking is an issu~although they use a van to transport clients and staff. According to our parking requirements (for daycares/schools) we would require 5 off street spaces, they propose one. Otherwise, for a residential area, the site is well located, being adjacent to a school, and across from the Community Center. J'm not sure if we should kick this application up to a CUP. I'll call in Wed. to discuss. ~ " ( I RECEiVED Nov. 5, 2001 ;..!UV 0 5 2001 City of Arroyo Grande Cc:~ ~.:r~.~t:~ .~ <.' 1,:.:~~ > ~'~',~:t;'~'~:'5 ~PT. Community Development Dept. P.O.

We as residents in the Village are mainly concerned with the safety ..-.. hazards such a facility would present in our neighborhood. The Village atmosphere is one that promotes family lifestyles with residents who enjoy walking, jogging and bike riding throughout our safe streets, Not only would the available parking on the streets be affected, but the traffic would increase. The property at 207 Garden St. is located at a curve that joins Garden SI. and Ide St. with existing visibility and speeding concerns. The increased parking would heighten this hazard, As property owners we are' not only concemed with the safety of our family and , . neighbors but with the effect such a facility might impose on our property value and resale opportunities. The Village of Arroyo Grande is in itself a unique location, offering the pleasures of a hometown, close knit community. That is the reason so many of us have chosen it as our home and would be disheartened to see a business of any kind placed within its' core. We strongly believe that approval of this permit would introduce an element that is not conducive to the family environment that this area is designed for and has maintained for many years. This, or any other business such as this, would be inappropriate for this area and we would suggest that the city investigate alternative locations for such a facility. This is a business and it is our belief that there are more appropriate locations in our community in which this business could be placed that would be more suitable and would cost the taxpayers less money.

For a detailed description of the "Safe Haven" program, please refer to the applicant's letter in Attachment 1. ~~~~:~... Staff Advisorv Committee The SAC reviewed the project on January 22, 2002 and discussed issues of parking, undergrounding of utilities, curb gutter and sidewalk and how the California Health and Safety Code pertains to the application (reference Attachment 2 for meeting notes). The applicant is requesting an exception to the City's undergrounding and curb, gutter and sidewalk requirements (reference Attachment 1 pg. 2 of the applicant's letter). . . DISCUSSION: Development Code The application is for an Adult Day Care, which is similar in use to a Large Family Day Care facility, an allowable use in residential qistricts. Large Family Day Care facilities are allowed subject to a minor use permit. Initially, staff processed Transition's application' with a minor use permit and noticed neighbors of the project site accordingly. After receiving many letters in opposition to the project, and after reviewing a survey of other cities in California and finding that the majority address Adult Day Care facilities through the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process, a CUP was required for the subject application.

Staff initially informed the public that applicant was "Transitions", and the project was a "Large Day Care 0 1-00 1 to allow for the operation of a f'ocial support groups facility for disabled adults", and processed the application as a minor use permit. (See Exhibit A-I attached --.-.. hereto.) 'Due to strong opposition from the neighbors. this process was aborted. 2. The applicant is actually "Transitions Mental Health Association", and the project now applied for is a "Conditional Use Permit to allow an Adult. Day Care "to. provide social rehabilitation services to disabled, mentally ill adults in a residential neighborhood." (See Staff Report to Planning Commission dated February 19, 2002.) 3. Prior to the processing of the applicant's current application. staff surveyed other cities in California and found that they all address Adult . Day Care facilities through the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process. However, none of the cities surveyed allow such use in a Single Family Residential (SF) zone. (See Exhibit A-2 attached hereto, which evidences that the City of Cerritos only allows such use in a Light Industrial Zone; the City of Gardena only allows such use in Multiple Dwelling, Public ~nd Semipublic Facilities, and Local Servicing Commercial Districts; and the City of Garden Grove only allows such use in Commercial Zones (CI, C2, and C3).) 4. Health and Safety Code Section 1597.40 has absolutely no application to the subject project. That section only applies to 1amily day I 3/ care homes for children." Such facilities "should be situated in normal residential surroundings so as to give children the home environment which is conducive to healthy and safe development." (See Exhibit A-3 attached hereto.) . 5. Section 16.52.120 of the Arroyo Grande Development Code likewise has absolutely no application to the subject project. That section is merely the local ordinance which implements the State law dealing With day care homes for children. Accordingly. the development standards contained therein are inapposite to the proposed project which contemplates a facility for disabled adults. 6. The proposed project is in the Single Family Residential zone. Table 9-06.040-A of the Arroyo Grande Development Code prohibits use comparable to the proposed project in that Boarding/Rooming Houses (A.9.). Senior Independent Living Uses (A. 1 0.), Congregate Care.. Assisted Living . . . (A.l!.), and Convalescent Care (A:12.) uses are not permitted in uses in the Single Family Residential zone. . 7. Consistent therewith it is appellants' understanding that the two previous locations of Transitions Mental Health Association within the City of Arroyo Grande were not in a Single Family Residential zone. but were both in a Commercial Office zone. 8. The proposed project should be located within the Commercial Office zone as a permitted use in either General Commercial, Village Commercial or Office Professional, as a medical and related heath services for humans as authorized in section A.6. of Table 9-07.030-A of the Arroyo Grande Development Code. 9. It is the appellants' further understanding that the City of Arroyo 2 d~ Grande Planning Commission and Staff have plans to conduct a workshop to discuss the need to amend the zoning ordinance to accommodate locations for such businesses as the applicant.

We understand the need for adult care in our Arroyo Grande community is important. However, the concerns that were shared by our Valley View Adventist Academy ~chool Board were: . 1. Parent and faculty con~ein for the safety of Valley View Adventist Academy students. 2. Concern for additiorial traffic congestion on an already busy avenue, with traffic to the Valley View Children's Center, Valley View Adventist Jr. Academy, and the Women's Center. 3. Recognition of our neighbors' concerns for an adult care facility for mentally challenged with possible risks for neighborhood children as well 'students of Valley View Chil9ren's Center and Valley View Adventist Academy. 4. We urge the city council to folJow city-zoning codes for commercial and residential property. Since this area is residential, the VV AA Board believes the integrity of the zoning codes should be followed. We do not believe this is a good location for this adult care center for the above stated reasons. Thank you for keeping our concerns in mind as you take action on this proposed adult .. day care center. Sincerely yours, i~1ci/!+ VV AA Principal ArpadSoo VV AA School Board Chair " , .. .. ~/~ ,. .

Bronch Arroyo Grande, CA 93420 Attn: Mike Lady - Re: l..arge Doy Care No. 02-004 permit for operating of a social support group foc:ility for disabled adults at 202 Vernon, AG It has come to o~ attention that an application to locate the above in a R1 zoned area of Arrayo Grande is once again an issue. Why this is even a consideration is beyond us. When you buy a home in an R1 zoning you should have the confidence that the city in which you live will comply with that zoning. This should not even be an issue.. The above is a business! It is not a Single Family Residence. Why do we have zoning??? The Vernon St. area of AG has a constant flow of traffic with no sidewalks. Unless the people participating were completely confined to that residence.in a fenced environment as is a Child Doy Care Center it could be very dangerous. I (Judy) live011d work in the Village of AG and have seen persons from the groLp walking alone in the Village on a doily bosis when they were located on Mason Street. They were certoinly unsupervised as they were alone and more than 0 block from the residence. This practice would seem to be extremely dangerous at the Vernon St. location. GiYen that this is also a very hilly area. It is not right that arry neighbor should be responsible for one of the Disabled Adults falling on their property with the potential of being seriously hurt. We realize that it has been stated many times that these residence do not wonder unsupervised. That is just not the coseJ! This issue and the fact that it is a single-family residential area should be in itself enough to deny the permit. We are strongly opposed to the location of a Large Doy Care/Disabled Adults Facility in any single-falnily/R1 zoned neighborhood in Arroyo Grande.

Branch St "'"'" Arroyo Grande, Ca 93420 i~2OO1 Re: CUP Case# 02-004 Greetings, I have just recently been made aware of the proposal to locate an adult day care facility on Vernon St. in the single family residential zone and I wish to state my strong opposition to this plan. There are many reasons not to locate such a facility in a single family neighborhood but I cannot think of one good reason in favor of such a plan. The staff report for this proposal seems to make a comparison between the proposed use and a child day care facility. This is quite a stretch because the typical, child care facility is Ii~. censed for 6 children as opposed to the proposed facility which would house 14 adults. Children in a day care facility are confined to the home and yard however from personal experience I know this is not the case with adult care facilities. Several years ago I operated a business which was located in an industrial zone next door to such a facility and the patients were con- tinually leaving the home and wandering into neighboring businesses. Consider the impact on the neighbors of the extra traffic from transporting patients to and from the facility and from friends and relatives visiting the patients, not to mention emergency vehicle trips to the facility. The major impact is of course the lowering of values and marketability of the neighboring residential properties_Just for a moment, put yourself in the shoes' of a prospective home buyer; if you were considering purchasing two similar homes and one was in a conforming sin- gle family residential neighborhood and the other was situated next to a facility such ~s the one proposed here, which would you choose? There is a need for such facilities in our community but there is also a place for them and surely it is not in a sinQle familv residential neighborhood. The PC zone or another commercial zone would be much more suitable for this facility. PI~ase consider the detrimental impact to the neighbors if this use is approved. ''1 R1rds, ; . . .

The "Safe Haven" program has been operating in the City of Arroyo Grande since 1980, providing therapeutic and social support for mentally ill community members of southern San Luis Obispo County - the -- largest percentage (40%) of program participants live in Arroyo Grande; the other participants come fi-om Grover Beach, Nipomo, Oceano, and Pismo Beach. The program was originally located on 166 LePointe St. in the Village, and remained there for 15 years before moving to a larger site at 143 Mason St. In October of2001, the program was given notice to leave Mason St. due to a pending sale of the property. Since the first of November, our program has been temporarily located in two different one-room office sites without kitchen facilities, office space for staff, or additional group rooms for clients. The program has operated as a good neighbor throughout its time in Arroyo Grande, developing positive relations with neighbors and actively participating in the community through social and recreational interaction, and by volunteering at local service agencies such as the Arroyo Grande Historical Society, Animal Rescue Coalition, Land Conservancy and the People's Kitchen. Clients who participate in the program learn social skills, provide peer support, create healthy relationships, develop work skills, and learn how to better manage their disability through educational workshops on medication, stress reduction, symptom management, and wellness and recovery. Through participation in the program, we have seen many clients develop meaningful roles in the community by attending college, volunteer at local service agencies, and move onto steady employment. The people who attend the "Safe Haven" program come fi-om all walks oflife. They are not violent criminals or sex offenders; they are the children, spouses, parents, grandparents and friends of many local residents. Our other Socialization Centers in Atascadero, San Luis Obispo, and Santa Maria operate out of homes within the community, allowing a natural, non-institutional environment for clients to develop the skills needed to live healthy, happy lives. The property at 202 Vernon Street provides just that: a kitchen, a large yard, sufficient space to operate groups and provide offices for staff, and a "homey" environment that is conducive towards rehabilitation, growth, and community integration. Post Office Box 15408. San Luis Obispo, CA 93406. phone 805.541.5144. fax 805.541.9480. web www.t.mha.org --~~..-----'--- --~--~ We understand that there are neighbors of the Vernon Street site that have expressed concerns regarding the program we provide and the clientele we serve. In response to this, on March fh, 2002, we notified the Vernon Street neighbors that we would be available to meet in order to discuss any concerns and clarify some possible misconceptions. We met with five neighbors on March 14th for over two hours. During that time we developed a dialogue with these neighbors, allowing us to respond to concerns directly, honestly and in depth. We answered questions about the program and our clients, we shared that we had looked without success for a house in a commercial zone, and we discussed the concern about traffic problems on the street and what our program would need to do to address that issue. At the end of the meeting, most of the neighbors seemed to feel more relieved due to the infonnation they had received; two neighbors expressly stated that they supported our program moving into the neighborhood. We have attempted to set up a similar meeting with the parents of the Valley View Academy but have not heard back ITom the principal regarding that meeting's status; the school has been provided a packet of information regarding our '-. agency and programs, as well as wlth phone numbers to discuss any concerns. Throughout this process we have done our utmost to remain accessible to the community. Besides the five neighbors who attended the meeting, only one person, a concerned parent ITom Valley View, has attempted to contact us. We would like to share with those that have concerns the following: * Our agency has operated this program in Arroyo Grande for over 20 years without any incidents involving law enforcement or neighbor problems. We were located in the mIddle of family neighborhoods at 166 Le Point St. for over fourteen years and at 143 Mason St. for six years. * The neighbors at Mason St., particularly Shelly and Mike Cochran stood up at the Planning Commission meeting and talked about their initial apprehension about our moving into the neighborhood and their developed belief that we are an "excellent" neighbor and have improved the neighborhood in many ways, such as planting flowers in the park across ITom the house and a lovely garden at the house. * Our program operates ITom 10:00-2:00 Monday through Friday and ITom 4:00-8:00 pm on Wednesday. There is no one at the house on weekends and most evenings, and never anyone there after 9:00 pm. * The clients we serve are referred to us by San Luis Obispo County Mental Health Services and all live in Arroyo Grande, Grover Beach, Pismo Beach or Nipomo. Nearly half of our clients live in Arroyo Grande. Most of them live with families or independently in their own homes. Again, nearly all ofthem graduated ITom local schools and have long-standing connections in the community. * Clients served are receiving treatment for their mental illness; the program requestiqg the permit is part, of rehabilitation and recovery ITom mental illness. Our staff maintains close professional relationships with the clients and work very hafd to ensure that they are staying connected to their family, their therapist and, when appropriate, their medications. The participants of this program are quite stable and rely on our progranl to -----~--- maintain a support system that is a critical component to maintaining their overall health and well being. This program is a good community asset that everyone involved with is ,proud to be a part of and that truly enhances any neighborhood it resides within. Our fonner neighbors will attest to that. Please cOntact us if you have any questions about our program anq our request for a pennie We can be reached at 541-5144.

I would like to take a minute to address a very serious and important matter, which effects a lot of us. Its called Safe Haven (a local socialization program), which helps people with mental illness, it has been such an important part of all of our lives. We do things that help us back to the mainstream of society. We do a lot of different things to help ourselves as well as the society. We do volunteer community work and help support each other. In my opinion the program has ch~nged all of us in a . positive way. I urge you to keep an open mind because I feel the program really does work. We are all really good people and all we ask is to be given the chance to prove that we can be good neighbors.

(WCI). It should be noted that the proposed assignment is in the form of a sale of stock and that SCSSI will continue to provide the services specified in the Franchise Agreements. According to information obtained by staff, WCI was founded in 1997 by a group of industry professionals with over 50 years of industry experience through the purchase of five operations in Washington and Idaho from Browning-Ferris Industries. The company expanded into the California market with the addition of Madera Disposal Systems in early 1998. As of December 31,2001, WCI serves -- -- CITY COUNCIL ASSIGNMENT OF SOLID WASTE AND GREEN WASTE, AND RESIDENTIAL CURBSIDE AND COMMERCIAL RECYCLING COLLECTION FRANCHISES APRIL 9, 2002 PAGE 2 more than 700,000 commercial, industrial and residential customers in fifteen states. WCI became a publicly owned company in May of 1998 and is traded on the NASDAQ exchange under the symbol WCNX. The City's Franchise Agreements stipulate that the City must first consent to a proposed assignment and that the franchisee must pay for any reasonable expenses to investigate any proposed assignee. Since the sale of stock in SCSSI and its affiliated companies has regional implications, the San Luis Obispo County Integrated Waste Management Authority (IWMA) agreed to assist in the review process. Because of the complexity of the investigation to evaluate WCI operational experience and fiscal stability as stipulated in the Franchise Agreements, the IWMA recommended hiring Hilary Theisen Consulting to assist in the assessment. The City of San Luis Obispo acted as the lead agency for the region (with IWMA assistance), and San Luis Garbage Company was responsible for any cost incurred in hiring the consultant. Franchise Assignment Criteria The City's Franchise Agreements set minimum requirements that must be met in order for the City to consider the assignment of the contracts. The requirements and the consultant's (Hilary Theisen) scope of work in evaluating WCI ability to satisfy the condition are as follows: Financial Stabilitv. Review the audited financial statements of WCI operations for the immediately preceding three operating years, and provide an opinion regarding Waste Connections financial stability. Manaaement EXDerience. Based on a review of WCI solid waste management experience and the solid waste experience of the key personnel, provide an opinion regarding WCI having 10 years of experience on a scale equal to or exceeding the scale of operations conducted by the existing franchise. Sianificant citations or other censure. Provide an opinion regarding WCI having suffered in the last five years any significant citations or other censure for any federal, state or local agency having jurisdiction over its waste management operation due to any significant failure to comply with ~- CITY COUNCIL ASSIGNMENT OF SOLID WASTE AND GREEN WASTE, AND RESIDENTIAL CURBSIDE AND COMMERCIAL RECYCLING COLLECTION FRANCHISES APRIL 9, 2002 PAGE 3 state, federal or local environmental laws, and that WCI has provided a complete list of such citations and censures. Operations. Provide an opinion regarding WCI's ability to conduct its operations at all times in an environmentally safe and conscientious fashion. Solid waste manaaement practices. Provide an opinion regarding WCI's ability to conduct its solid waste management practices in accordance with sound waste management practices in full compliance with all federal, state and local laws regulating the collection and disposal of solid waste, including hazardous waste. Aareement. Provide an opinion regarding WCl's ability to fulfill the terms of the franchise agreement in a timely, safe and effective manner. The charge given to the consultant was to investigate these points and render a professional opinion regarding WCI ability to perform in each area. Attachment 1 is the report issued from the consultant which contains the results of the investigation. Overall, the consultant provided a favorable opinion of WCI ability to satisfy the franchise assignment criteria. The following is a summary of the consultant's opinions based on the information reviewed in regards to the previously listed assignment criteria. This information is also found in the Executive Summary of the report. Opinion - Financial Stability The Current Ratio, Long Term Debt/Equity Ratio, Return on Assets, Return on Equity and the information published by Multex Investor (www.multexinvestor.com) for the immediately preceding three operating years indicated for WCI (and the average for the Waste Management Services Industry as a whole) do not disclose any indication of financial instability. Assuming that WCI management effectiveness continues, there is no reason to conclude that WCI is not now financially stable and would not continue to be stable with the passage of time. .-- CITY COUNCIL ASSIGNMENT OF SOLID WASTE AND GREEN WASTE, AND RESIDENTIAL CURBSIDE AND COMMERCIAL RECYCLING COLLECTION FRANCHISES APRIL 9, 2002 PAGE 4 Opinion. Management Experience WCI has the management experience necessary to perform the services defined in the City franchise agreements. A management support structure is in place that is suitable for providing the level of service established in the Franchise Agreements. Opinion - Significant Citations or Other Censure The record of environmental citations and other censures does not indicate any significant problems at WCI landfills and transfer stations. The absence of any record of default events or assessment of liquidated damages under collection franchise agreements indicates there are no significant citations or censures in collection operations. Opinion - Operations Assuming that WCI continues to implement a corporate culture of conducting operations in an environmentally sound and conscientious fashion, the assignment will result in environmentally sound and conscientious operations. The WCI Safety Manual is comprehensive in content and conforms to industry standards for training and measuring performance of operations staff. Opinion - Solid Waste Management Practices Assuming WCI continues a commitment to sound waste management practices by allowing the managers of subsidiaries to continue practices used in the community for many years before acquisition, the assignment will result in sound practices. Also, many members of WCI senior management had the opportunity to develop sound practices during years of previous employment with other large waste management companies. Opinion. Ability to Fulfill Terms of the Agreement Based on the data and statements provided by WCI and the previous opinions, WCI has the ability to fulfill the terms of the franchise agreements in a timely, safe and effective manner. -~-_.~- -- CITY COUNCIL ASSIGNMENT OF SOLID WASTE AND GREEN WASTE, AND RESIDENTIAL CURBSIDE AND COMMERCIAL RECYCLING COLLECTION FRANCHISES APRIL 9, 2002 PAGE 5 Overview of the Evaluation Process In order to facilitate a regional approach and involvement from the other jurisdictions in the assignment process, the following is a summary of activities that took place: Kick-off meeting with all jurisdictions invited to explain the assignment process and give them an opportunity for input.

A summary of revenues and costs is presented in this section. The parameters used to evaluate financial stability included historical trends, debt to equity ratio, long term debt. status of assets, conditions ofleases, cash reserves, credit lines, sources of revenue, experience with Affilliote<l companies, and experience with renewal of expired ftanchises. The information for evaluation came ftom 10-K's and other financial documents provided by we. 4.1 Revenues we revenues consist mainly of fees charged for service with over 50% of revenues for the year ended coming ftom services provided in exclusive marlcets. As of~hP.r 31, 2000, revenues ftom collection services accounted for about 71 % of total revenue fu1lowed by landfin services at about 13% of total revenue, transfer and processing at about 9"10, recycling services at 6% and "other" at less than 1 % of total revenues. we reports that it bas reviewed the rate regulation methodology in effect for the Companies and has satisfied itself that the methodology should resuh in recovery of its reasoilable costs of providing required services and a reasonable profit margin. WC reports that revenues ftom the Companies are expected to account for about 3~5% to 4% of total WC revenue. WC aJso reports that it expects annual revenue growth fur the' Companies to be in the range of2-4% per year and WC expects to reduce "COsts through use of improved technology and efficiency in admin1..uative operations. The growth is a combination ofCPI adjustments and new accounts. 4.2 Costs Acquisitions have and will continue to be an important component of the growth strategy fullowed by WC. WC has used various t1l1ll1ing mechanisms to oflSet acquisition costs in the past, resulting in a stable financial condition in 2002. WC has, since December 31, 2001 acquired an additional six landfills which has increased the accrued amount fur closure and post closure costs. Cold Canyon L8ndfi11, Inc. is included in the acquisition. Cold Canyon T .andfiJl, Inc. operates Cold Canyon r.anc:lfill which receives solid waste collected by the Companies. WC advises that the amount of the closure and post closure trust fund held by the State fur Cold Canyon l.andfill is about $7.1miUion. The California Integrated Waste Management Board has advised Cold Canyon T -llnilfill.lnc. that, based upon review of documents submitted by Cold Canyon Landfill, Inc., the "closure/postclosure maintenance fund is adequate at this time and meets the requirements ofTit1e 27, California Code of Regulations Division 2, Subdivision I, Chapter 6, SukJmpter 3, Article 1, section 22225." we has reported that it plans to replace the funds in the Cold Canyon CIosure/Post Closure Maintenance Fund with a bond after completion of the acquisition. This is an approved financing method by the California Integrated Waste Manag~ Board. 4-1 -------- ---... ~--_._.._-_.... ------ Based upon audited finimciaJs for the ~ ended December 31, 2000, representations by the we regarding review ofllondfiO closure/post closure estimates and a comm\1nv....mu !tom the California Integrated Weste Management Board, Istndfill closure/post closure maintenance costs do not appear to be a substantial threat to financial stability at this time. WC management appears to be well aware of the risk that these costs pose to the Company. 4.3 Conclusions Approximately 50",4 of total we revenues are !tom services provided under exclusive franchises, contracts or permits. Revenues !tom such service arrangements nonnally are stable. The stability of . the J'P.In'Iinil1g portion of the revenue stream will depend upon we abi1ity to remain competitive with other service providers. WIth respect to recycling market risk, the we approach eliminates the risk that revenue would not be available to' pay we costs ofcol1ection, processing and marketing of recovered materials. Additionally, if established as represented, the we accounting and financial system should be an aid in cost control which should reduce risk of uncontrolled cost increases which could reduce net income. Based upon we representations and draft financial information for the year eoded December 31, 2001, the we plan for repayment of long term debt appears reasonable; however, implementation .ofthe plan requires effective """"'gement performance. Referring to Appendix B tables and figures, the Current Ratio, Long Term DebtlEquity Ratio, Return on Assets, Return on Equity and the information published by Muhex Investor (www.mu1texinvestor.com) for the periods indicated for we and the average for "the Waste Management Services Industry as a whole do not disclose any indication of financial instability. Based upon all of the foregoing and assuming that we ""''''Igement effectiveness continues, there is no reason to conclude that WC is nOt now financially stable and would not continue to be stable with the passage ofthne. - 4-2 -~~-- 5.0 MaDagemeDt ExperieDce The senior management of we bas extensive experience with solid waste management systems, including operations. finance, purcbasing and acquisitions.

Hwmn Resources - This includes support in appropriate handling of employee matters, health and welf8re Plans. payroll administration and opportunities for 8dw~t within the organization. . .

Financial Review and Analysis - This area of support includes the review and analysis of the operating perfoI1Il8llCe of the Companies. Conclusions WC has the ma"'lgement experience necessary to perform the services defined in the City Franchise Agreements. A management support structure is in place that is suitable to providing the level of service in the ftanchise agreements. WC has offered assurances . that waste matUlgement services to the City will continue as in the past to be provided by SLG personnel This practice of continuing services with local knowledgeable opetations stafflias been confirmed through contact with other co~mities (Madera, CA and Clark County, W A) where WC took over the incumbent service provider. 5-2 -- 6.0 SigaWeaat Cltatioas or Other Ceasure A significant citation or other censure is defined as an event that has serious consequences ifieft uncorrected by WC. Serious consequences include events of demuh under the fi:anchise agreement and criminal legal actions against the company or its senior management. we reports that it does not currently have any J.'f""!ir1g criminai or civil legal actions against it and/or its current corporate officers or persons who served as an officer within the last two years, which arose from the officer's activities on behalf of the corporation. Additionally, we bas not bad any of these issues in the past five years. we has provided four 3-ring binders contAini~ inspection reports, notices of violations, Agreed Orders to correct violations, and mi......nAnPOus reports and applications for changed operating conditions, all related to landfill.. and transfer stations from throughout the entire service area of the company. ~ reports have been reviewed, focusing on notices of violation. WC has disclosed negotiations on two Agreed Orders: one with the Colorado Air Pollution Control Ageooy and one with the Oklahoma Department ofEnvironmenta! Quality. The air issues in Colorado are of a historical nature as inherited 100m the previous landfill owner. we reports the issues are being resolved. The Oklahoma issue involves the importation of trash 100m I{AIW1S. and the contention by the state' that we must get state approval to take out-of-state waste. we intends to fight this issue in Federal Court ifnecessary. The background on these issues has been provided by we and has been reviewed. Conclusions . The record of environmental citations and other censures does not indicate any significant problems at WC landfill.. and transfer stations. The absence of any record ofdefiwlt events under collection ftanchise agreements indicates there are no significant citations or censures in collection operations. Contacts with other agencies I!CfVOO by WC (Vancouver and elark County, W A) and the records provided by WC indicate that problems are not significant and often quickly resolved. 6-1 ----_.~.- 7.0 Opentions Conducted in an Environmentally Safe and ConKlentioas Fashion The parameters for operations include trucks and mobile equipment, residential and commercial COl'tllit-s, customer service, collection crews (safety and training) and conformance with service terms of the ftancbise agreement. The criteria for meaSuring an environmentally safe and conscientious fushion are a mixture of subjective and objective items. The objective item; include the type of collection containers and trucks (non leaking wheeled carts, low emission truck engines), noise levels during truck operations, liquids J...a1ri11g from packer bodies, and response time to customer complaints of",i~o;ed service. Subjective items include truck ru.""Ige to streets and lost-time events for equipment and labor. WC has developed a comprehensive Safety Manual for implementation and use by all operating districts. That mA"'lal was provided by WC in CD format and reviewed for content. WC reports that District managers are accountable to company management for adequate performance in responding to local enviroIlJ1Y'31tal requirements in their communities. Inadequate performance can be grounds for loss of job. Telephone contact withconummitles served by we (Clark County and Vane6uver, WA) since 1997 gave no objective information on problems with trucks, containers, noise levels and response time to customer complaints. Service complaints are minor and quickly resolved, and there was no documentation in agency files of environmental problems from we equipment. Conclusions we projects and has implemented a corporate culture of conducting operations in an envirofl111P.l1talty sound and conscientious fushion. The Safety Manual is comprehensive in content and conforms to industry standards for training and measuring performance of operations sta1I . 7-1 ----_._..~-_.--_._.._...- 8.0 Solid Waste Management Pnetices (souDdDess aDd eompliaDee witb aU regulatory laws, iDcludiDg hazardous waste) The parameters for soundness and compliance include service contracts, equipment technology, agency ""''''Igement mandates, and commitment to practices of the industry. 8.1 Service contracts Service contracts are sound practice when both parties get what they need without excessive pressures or l11U1cceptable risk. we bas reported numerous types of contracts (governmental certificates, fi'anchise agreements, municipal contracts, colDIDerCial service agreements, residential subscription, residential contract) in the communities being served. This record of performance in accordance with local community contracting procedures indicates a willingness to comply with local requirements. 8.2 Equipment technology Sound practices in equipment technology includes periodic upgrading of containers to meet regulatory requirements for waste storage, adopting engine and body specifications for collection vehicles that reduce engine emissions and noise, and replacing inefficient equipment. we bas been operating equipment for less than 5 years so it is not possible to evaluate historic records to measure sound equipment technology practices. we reports that it expects the usefulJife of collection vehicles to be at least 7 years, and that . equipment age and the capital needed to replace inefficient equipment at the time of acquisition is included in the cost of the acquisition. 8.3 Agency management "",ndates Local and state mandates for hazardous wastes, vehicle emissions and recycling are examples of requhements to be met in comp1iance practices. WC reports offi:ring no services for hazardous waste disposal,' and that they do not intend to offer such services. Where communities have requested the service, we bas provided hazardous waste receiving and packaging services to prepare- materials for pickup and removal by a licensed hazardous waste handIer. we knows of the California waste diversion mandates under AB 939 based on other California collection operations (Chowchilla, Manunoth Lakes), and they have stated that eity requirements for recycling will be continued. , 8.4 Conclusions Ahhough we has operated waste management systems for less than 5 years, they have demonstrated a commitment to sound waste ""''''Igement practices by allowing the managers of subsidiaries to continue practices used in the connnunity for many years before acquisition. Also, many members of we senior management had the opportunity 8-1 -~~'-"'--"----"- to develop sound practices during years of previous employment with other large waste management companies. 8-2 .~--~-- -~ Appendix A City or San Lals Obispo SoUd Waste System Characteristics The City solid waste system is provided and operated under exclusive ftancbises (Solid Waste, Green Waste, Recycling) with San Luis Garbage Company (SLG).

In the 3 year period, revenues have increased as have cost of operations and net income which has experienced a 13 fold increase.21 Projections of net income for 2002 in "First Call Earnings Estimates" available for we at http://biz.yahoo.comare $1.85 per share or about $50 million with total revenues projected to be $452 million for 2002.22 we advises that consideration of the lo~ term debt and notes payable amOunt reported in the draft Balance Sheet for December 31, 2001 should recognize that (1) aboUt $150 million of said amount is unsecured subordinate debt that converts to common stock at $38 per share and (2) an additional amount of about $18 million is non recourse debt leaving about $249 million as the J"'I1VIinh1g long term debt and notes payable. we also advises that conversion of the unsecured subordinate debt would increase total stockholder equity to about $536 million and that net income for 2001 should be increased by some $6,500 to reflect non-recurring charges in 2001. 23 we has advised that (1) stockholder equity would be more than 200% of the $249 million in long term debt identified above and (2) net income after 2001 will allow for some buy down before the eredit Facility matures in 2005. Consequently, we plans to pay down the Credit Facility debt as allowed by actual net income and other business operations and acquisitions and renegotiate the ba1ance remaining in 2005.24 .
