SUBJECT: SECOND READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 1698 (2021 SERIES),
INTRODUCED BY THE CITY COUNCIL ON MAY 18, 2021 TO AMEND
THE AIRPORT AREA AND MARGARITA AREA SPECIFIC PLANS TO
ALLOW FOR DAY CARE FACILITIES CONSISTENT WITH
RESTRICTIONS THAT APPLY CITYWIDE UNDER THE MUNI
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Ordinance No. 1698 (2021 Series) entitled, “An Uncodified Ordinance of the City
Council of the City of San Luis Obispo, California, amending the Airport Area and
Margarita Area Specific Plans to allow for Day Care Facilities consistent with restrictions
that apply citywide under the Municipal Code (Spec-0209-2021).”
DISCUSSION
On May 18, 2021, the City Council voted 5-0 to introduce Ordinance No. 1698 (2021
Series), which amends the Airport Area and Margarita Area Specific Plans to allow for
day care facilities consistent with restrictions that apply citywide under the Municipal
Code. The Ordinance reflects the amendments made at the meeting and is now ready for
adoption. A summary of the Ordinance was prepared and published in the local
newspaper five days prior to the second reading. The amendment will become effective
thirty (30) days after final passage of the Ordinance.
Background
In 2018, the City updated its Zoning Regulations to allow day care facilities in all zones.
However, this amendment did not apply to the Margarita Area or Airport Area Specific
Plans. Currently, there are restrictions in the City’s Airport Area Specific Plan (AASP) that
limit day care facilities to 14 children of on-site employees, and such facilities are
prohibited in the Margarita Area Specific Plan Area (MASP).
On October 20, 2020, the City Council authorized Community Development Department
staff to undertake the necessary specific plan amendments to the MASP and AAS P to
align the zoning in these areas with the rest of the City.

Item 5c
Previous Council or Advisory Body Action
April 14, 2021, Planning Commission recommendation to the City Council (7 -0)
April 21, 2021, Airport Land Use Commission (7-0)
May 18, 2021, City Council introduced the ordinance (5-0)
Policy Context
As discussed in the Council Agenda Report dated May 18, 2021, the proposed
amendments are consistent with findings from the Child Care Study, the upcoming 2021-
2023 Major City Goals, and existing Municipal Code and Specific Plan framework, as well
as the Airport Land Use Plan.
Public Engagement
As noted above, the City Council authorized Community Development Department staff
to undertake the necessary specific plan amendments. Additionally, public
correspondence and testimony provided during the May 18, 2021 City Council Meeting
and the April 14, 2021 Planning Commission hearing were taken into consideration when
formulating these amendments to the AASP and the MASP.
Next Steps
The amendments to the AASP and the MASP will become effective on July 1, 2021 (30
days after adoption).
CONCURRENCE
No additional feedback was required from other City departments on the proposed
amendments.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The project is exempt per CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the “general rule”
exemption, because the proposed action will have no possibility of a significant effect on
the environment and will not cause impacts beyond those identified and evaluated within
the EIRs of the AASP or the MASP. In this case, allowing day care facilities in these
specific plans is consistent with the General Plan, are subject to restrictions set forth in
the Municipal Code to ensure public health, safety and welfare, and project specific
environmental review will be required.

On October 20, 2020, the City Council authorized Community Development Department
staff to undertake the necessary specific plan amendments, approving an allocation of
$20,000 from unassigned FY 2018-19 fund balance to fund the necessary work. City
Council Resolution No. 11117 (2020 Series) gave the authority to the City Manager to
use FY 2018-19 unassigned fund balance above the required reserve levels which has a
current balance of $5.1 million. There will be no other fiscal impact related to approving
the specific plan amendments. No further fiscal impacts will occur as a result of this action.
ALTERNATIVES
Modify the Proposed Ordinance. The Council may make minor, non-substantive
changes to the proposed Ordinance for staff to incorporate into the final documents. Any
material changes to the Final Ordinances would require further review by staff and the
Planning Commission followed by re-introduction of the Ordinance by the Council.

AND MARGARITA AREA SPECIFIC PLANS TO ALLOW FOR DAY
CARE FACILITIES CONSISTENT WITH RESTRICTIONS THAT APPLY
CITYWIDE UNDER THE MUNICIPAL CODE (SPEC-0209-2021)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of San Luis Obispo conducted a
web based public hearing, on April 14, 2021, and recommended the City Council adopt

August 23, 2005, with portions of the AASP adopted by Ordinance 1481, including Table
4.3, and later and amended since by both resolution and ordinance in 2014, 2017, 2019,
and 2020; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo conducted a web

SECTION 1. Environmental Determination. The City Council hereby finds that the
project is exempt per CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the “general rule”
exemption, because the proposed action will have no possibility of a significant effect on
the environment and will not cause impacts beyond those identified and evaluat ed within
the EIRs of the AASP or the MASP, because allowing day care facilities in these specific
Page 21 of 823

O 1698
plans is consistent with the General Plan, and are subject to restrictions set forth in the
Municipal Code to ensure public health, safety and welfare, and because project specific
environmental review will be required.
SECTION 2. Findings. Based upon all evidence, the City Council makes the
following findings:
a) The proposed amendments to both the Margarita Area Specific Plan (MASP)
and Airport Area Specific Plan (AASP) are consistent with the General Plan
because they implement Land Use Element (LUE) Community Goals to create
a balanced community and provide opportunities for childcare within the city
consistent with LUE Policy 3.8.2.
b) The specific plan amendments are intended to ensure consistency with zoning
requirements with respect to childcare facilities as applied elsewhere in the
City, as set forth in the Municipal Code.
c) Day care facilities that may be proposed as a result of the specific plan
amendments would be subject to the same health and safety regulations as set
forth in both applicable state law and within the Municipal Code Section
17.86.100.
d) The specific plan amendments do not change the underlying policy framework
or overall land use or circulation pattern envisioned in either Specific Plan.
e) The specific plan amendments will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and
welfare of persons living or working within the MASP or the AASP or in the
vicinity because the proposed day care uses will be compatible with the other
uses allowed within the MASP and the AASP and will not cause impacts
beyond those identified in the Final EIR for either the Specific Plans.
f) The specific plan amendments to the MASP and the AASP have been
structured to comply with the existing San Luis Obispo County Airport Land
Use Plan (ALUP) and the Draft Amended and Restated ALUP and would allow
for day care facilities only on sites that are located within Safety Area S -2 of
the current ALUP and Safety Zone 6 of the Draft Amended and Restated ALUP.
SECTION 3. Action. The City Council of San Luis Obispo hereby 1) amends
Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6.1 and 4.1 of the MASP as reflected in “Exhibit A,”
removing language prohibiting day care facilities within the specific plan and adding
language allowing day care facilities subject to the regulations set forth in the Municipal
Code, and 2) amends Table 4.3 of the AASP as reflected in “Exhibit B,” removing
language limiting the size of day care facilities and the requirements for a day care facility
to connected to an employer and adding language allowing day care facilities subject to
the regulations set forth in the Municipal Code.

would have passed this Ordinance, and each and every section, subsection, sentence,
clause, or phrase not declared invalid or unconstitutional without regard to whether any
portion of the Ordinance would be subsequently declared invalid or unconstitutional.

EXHIBIT A
Margarita Area Specific Plan Amendment
The following sections of the existing Margarita Area Specific Plan are hereby amended
to read as follows:
Pages 13-14. Section 2.1. Low -Density Residential (R-1-SP). Section
2.1.1. Uses. Low Density Residential areas are primarily for detached,
single-family houses. To maintain residential capacity and airport
compatibility, uses such as churches, schools, and secondary dwellings are
not allowed. However, day care centers are allowed s ubject to existing
regulations set forth in Section 17.86.100 and Table 2 -1 of Section
17.10.020 of the Municipal Code.
Page 16. Section 2.2. Medium-Density Residential (R-2-SP). Section
2.2.1. Uses. Medium-Density Residential areas are for individual detached
houses on relatively small lots or groups of detached dwellings on larger
parcels, and for attached dwellings where each is clearly identifiable by its
form and relationship to yards and gardens. Figure 5 shows where dwellings
must be detached. To maintain residential capacity and airport
compatibility, uses such as churches, schools, and secondary dwellings are
not allowed. However, day care centers are allowed subject to existing
regulations set forth in Section 17.86.100 and Table 2 -1 of Section
17.10.020 of the Municipal Code.
Page 20. Section 2.3. Medium-High Density Residential (R-3-SP).
Section 2.3.1. Uses. Medium-high Density Residential areas are for
attached dwellings, where each dwelling is identifiable by its form, or for
detached dwellings on small lots created through a condominium or
planned-development process. To maintain residential capacity and airport
compatibility, uses such as churches and schools are not allowed.
However, day care centers are allowed subject to existing regulations set
forth in Section 17.86.100 and Table 2 -1 of Section 17.10.020 of the
Municipal Code.
Page 22. Section 2.4. High-Density Residential (R-4-SP). Section 2.4.1.
Uses. A mix of housing densities, ownership patterns, cost and building
types is desirable in the Margarita Area Specific Plan. High -Density
Residential areas are intended for attached dwellings in close proximity to
the core area. To maintain residential capacity and airport compatibility uses
such as churches and schools are not allowed. However, day care centers
are allowed subject to existing regulations set forth in Section 17.86.100
and Table 2-1 of Section 17.10.020 of the Municipal Code.

Ordinance No. 1698 (2021 Series) Page 5
O 1698
Page 23. Section 2.5. Neighborhood Commercial. Section 2.5.1.
Uses. The Neighborhood Commercial area is for small-scale businesses
that provide convenient goods and services for nearby residents and
workers, as well as a semipublic, central meeting place and architectural
focus for the neighborhood. It is recognized that c ommercial centers to the
southeast and southwest of the Margarita Area provide a wider range of
goods and services than can be accommodated in the designated
Neighborhood Commercial area. Commercial uses here that provide
architectural interest and opportunities for residents’ socializing have value
beyond shortening frequent shopping trips. The retail uses of a TOD are
often dependent on the market area developed in the residential and office
components of the project.
While this core commercial center must often follow the residential
development, the land for public facilities and parks can be set aside and
developed concurrently to aid in the marketing and to supply amenities and
services to new residents. According to planning sources, it takes
approximately 600 units to support a commercial center. For these reasons,
the ground floor of the Neighborhood Commercial area will be reserved for
commercial use for a period of 10 years from the date that 300 units are
constructed and occupied. Dwellings are encouraged above the ground
floor (Figure 5 shows parts of the Neighborhood Commercial area where
allowable densities may occur).
Uses shall be as provided in the Zoning Regulations for the C -N zone,
except that the following are prohibited:
Any commercial establishment occupying more than 465 square-
meters (5,000 square-feet) gross floor area;
Schools or public-assembly facilities; and
Service stations, car washes, or auto repair
Pages 26-27. 2.6.1 Uses. The Business Park designation will provide
employment opportunities in close proximity to the core area. The business park
designation is intended for well-designed, master-planned, campus- type
developments that will contribute to community character and the City’s objective
of attracting jobs that can support households in San Luis Obispo.
The Business Park zone is divided into sections, based on compatibility with the
Airport and adjacent or nearby residential areas.
A. Business Park/Office. Areas designated Business Park/Office allow for a
mix of uses near the core area and along the primary transit corridor. This
specific plan envisions small offices and mixed -use (residential and office)
developments in this area. Uses shall be as provided in the Offi ce zone,
except that those uses listed in part D below are prohibited.
Page 25 of 823
Ordinance No. 1698 (2021 Series) Page 6
O 1698
B. General Business Park. Areas designated General Business Park or one-
story, masonry construction is intended for research and development, light

this plan are intended to be consistent with the County Airport Land Use
Plan. Several types of uses such as schools, and churches that are typically
allowed in residential and commercial zones in other parts of the city are
not allowed in the Margarita Area. The residential densities and their
locations are meant to concentrate residential development in locations
where it will have the least problems with Airport compatibility.

Numbered Notes to Table 4.3
1. These activities are considered secondary uses for business parks. Within a
development project site, their combined floor area shall not exceed 25 percent of
the total floor area. Some are also subject to limits on individual floor area, as
shown in the body of the table. Floor area limitations shall not apply to bank
headquarters.
2. Use permit review shall consider that the C-S zone is primarily intended to
accommodate uses not generally suited to other commercial zones because of
noise, truck traffic, visual impacts and similar factors. A use permit may be
approved only when the church will not likely cause unreasonable compatibility
problems with existing or likely future service commercial uses in the vicinity. Use
permit conditions may include measure to mitigate incompatibility.
3. In the C-S zone, nightclubs must contain a minimum of four thousand five hundred
square feet of floor area. The required use permit process shall address parking,
neighborhood compatibility, and security issues.
4. In order to approve a Medical Service use in the C-S or BP zones, the Hearing
Officer must make the following findings:
a. The proposed medical service is compatible with surrounding land uses.
b. The proposed medical service is located along a street designated as an
arterial or commercial collector in the Circulation Element and has
convenient access to public transportation.
c. The proposed medical service will not significantly increase traffic or create
parking impacts in residential neighborhoods.
d. The proposed medical service is consistent with the Airport Land Use Plan
(ALUP).
e. The project will not preclude service commercial uses in areas especially
suited for these uses when compared with medical service.
f. The project site can accommodate the parking requirements of the
proposed medical service and will not result in other lease spaces being
underutilized because of lack of available parking.
5. Day care centers are allowed in residential zones within the Avila Ranch portion of
the Specific Plan subject to a Minor Use Permit.
6. Broadcast studios are allowed by right except than an administrative use permit is
required to permit any on-site antennas, dishes or transmission towers; or any
radio, microwave, or other type of airbound transmission form the project site or
any other site within the Airport Area.
7. Caretaker quarters shall have a maximum floor area of 1,000 square feet and shall
not be allowed din available safety areas S -1a or the runway protection zone, as
defined by the ALUP.
8. These uses are identified in the San Luis Obispo County Regional Airport Land
Use Plan as noise sensitive, specific sound -attenuation requirements may apply.
Refer to the ALUP for more information.
