WHEREAS, all requirements, conditions and mitigation measures required per
said Council Resolution No. 10832 (2017 Series) approving the tentative map and
Ordinance No. 1639 (2017 Series) approving the Development Agreement have been
completed or appropriate securities will be in place to guarantee their completion prior to

WHEREAS, the Avila Ranch Development Plan and associated Final

WHEREAS, an Addendum to the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) has
been prepared as shown in Attachment H of the staff report to address modifying the
timing of the construction of a bicycle bridge over Tank Farm Creek south of Buckley
Road identified in Mitigation Measure TRANS-11, and under the revised timing, the south
bicycle bridge will be constructed in Phase 4, concurrent with the bicycle lanes and road
widening on Buckley Road, in order to create continuous bicycle routes and to minimize
construction impacts to properties on the south side of Buckley Road; and
WHEREAS, approval of the final map is statutorily exempt under the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15268(b)(3) Ministerial Projects
(approval of final subdivision maps) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (State
CEQA Guidelines), therefore, no further environmental review is required for approval of
the Tract 3089 Phases 2 & 3 final map.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of San Luis
Obispo as follows:
SECTION 1. The final map for Tract 3089 Phases 2 & 3 is found to be in
substantial conformance with the tentative map.
SECTION 2. Phases 2 & 3 provide sufficient parkland and park improvements to
meet City requirements based on the projected population and housing onsite, so there
are no "in-lieu" park fees required.
SECTION 3. The City Clerk is authorized to accept fee offers for the open space
and park lots with the signing of the Final Map.
SECTION 4. The draft Phase 3 Affordable Housing Agreement, provided as
Attachment I of the staff report, is in substantial conformance with the 2017 Affordable
and Workforce Housing Plan which was adopted as Exhibit G of the Avila Ranch
Development Agreement.

SECTION 5. Approval of the final map for Tract 3089 Phases 2 & 3 is hereby
granted with the understanding that minor changes to the final map for technical accuracy
and condition compliance are still needed. The Public Works Director is authorized to
approve these changes and record the map when it is deemed to be complete, and all
conditions and mitigation measures are complied with.
SECTION 6. The Mayor is authorized to approve revisions to the Subdivision
Agreement for Tract 3089 Phases 2 & 3 and execute the agreement in a form substantially
the same as shown in Attachment G of the staff report.
SECTION 7. Pursuant to the FEIR Addendum provided as Attachment H of the
staff report, the timing of Mitigation Measure TRANS-11 for the bicycle bridge over Tank
Farm Creek south of Buckley Road is modified to coincide with the widening of Buckley
Road for continuous bike lanes to the east of the new bicycle bridge in Phase 4. Said
modification does not trigger one of the events in Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines
and therefore an addendum is appropriate.
SECTION 8. The Public Works Director is authorized to reduce or release
securities for the public improvements once the requirements for release are met and is
authorized to cause the improvements to be accepted into the City’s maintenance system.
SECTION 9. The Mayor and City staff are authorized to take action necessary to
carry out the intent of this resolution.

SECTION 10. Environmental Review. The Avila Ranch Development Plan (ARDP)
and associated Final Environmental Impact Report, together with the FEIR Addendum,
constitute the complete environmental determination for the project and are hereby
approved. All mitigation measures adopted as part of the ARDP FEIR that are applicable
to the project are carried forward and applied to the project to effectively mitigate the
impacts that were previously identified. The final map is substantially in conformance with
the tentative map evaluated with these prior environmental determinations. Approval of
the final map is statutorily exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
pursuant to Section 15268(b)(3) Ministerial Projects (approval of final subdivision maps)
of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (State CEQA Guidelines). Therefore, no
further environmental review is required.
