SAN LUIS OBISPO APPROVING A USE PERMIT, VESTING TENTATIVE
TRACT MAP AND ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW FOR A MIXED -USE
CONDOMINIUM PROJECT WITH 82 DWELLINGS AND 31,280 SQUARE
FEET OF COMMERCIAL FLOOR AREA
U/TR/ER 24-03 (3592 Broad Street)
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo conducted a public hearing
in the Council Chamber of City Hall, 990 Palm Street, San Luis Obispo, California, on August 3,
2004, for the purpose of considering Application U/TR/ER 24-03, commonly referred to as the
Broad Street Mixed -Use Project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of San Luis Obispo conducted public
hearings in the Council Chamber of City Hall, 990 Palm Street, San Luis Obispo, California, on
June 23, 2004 and September 10, 2003, for the purpose of formulating and forwarding
recommendations to the City Council regarding the project; and
WHEREAS, notices of said public hearings were made at the time and in the manner
required by law; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the proposed Mitigated Negative
Declaration for and has determined that the environmental document adequately addresses the
potential environmental impacts of the project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has duly considered all evidence, including the
testimony of the applicant, interested parties, and the evaluation and recommendations by the
Planning Commission and staff, presented at said hearing.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of San Luis
Obispo as follows:
Section 1. Environmental Review. The proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration for the
project adequately identifies all of the potential impacts of the project and the mitigation
measures and monitoring programs listed in Exhibit A are necessary to reduce potentially
significant impacts to less than significant levels.
Section 2. Subdivision Findings. The following findings are hereby made in support of
the proposed condominium subdivision.
The proposed map is consistent with the General Plan because the subdivision will
provide for mixed use residential development, consistent with the requirements and
limitations of the C-S zone.
R 9594
Resolution No. 9594 (2004,Series)
Page 2
2. The design of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan because the
project helps meet the City's goal of maintaining a compact urban form.
3. The site is physically suited for the proposed type of development because it is an under-
developed siteadjacentto existing street rights -of -way with complete City services.
4. As conditioned, the site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development
because the site is within an existing City block, services are available to serve the
development, and utilities have been designed to serve the site per City standards.
5. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or
substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat because the creek on
the project site is going to be enhanced and maintained to provide significantly improved
habitat over the current condition.
6. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause serious public health problems
because environmental impacts, such as noise, are mitigated by design and buildings in
the subdivision will be designed to meet existing building and safety codes.
7. The design of the subdivision will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at
large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision because the
project will not conflict with any existing easements.
Section 3. Mixed Use Project Findings. The following findings are required by the
Zoning Regulations (Section 17.08.072) and are hereby made in support of the proposed mixed
use project.
1. The project's mixed uses are consistent with the General Plan and are compatible with
their surroundings, with neighboring uses, and with each other because (1) all of the uses
proposed are allowed or conditionally allowed in the C-S zone, (2) as conditioned,
adjacent environmental noise and manufacturing activities will be disclosed to residents
of the project in the CC&R's, and (3) the uses that are allowed have been chosen to
insure compatibility and this use permit may be reviewed by the City if reasonable
written complaints are received from residents of the project or the Police Department.
2. The project's design protects the public health, safety and welfare because environmental
impacts have been identified and mitigated in the design of the project and the project has
been designed in a manner that is consistent with City standards and policies, such as the
City's Waterways Management Plan.
3. The mixed uses provide greater public benefits than single -use development of the site
because it provides a large number of residential units that are affordable by design, and
provides for alternative transportation use by residents and employees (transit stop,
showers and lockers for employees, a mix of services that keep employees and residents
on -site during the lunch hour, located along bike route).
Mandatory Finding for More Restrictive Standards (parking limitations)
4. Site specific property development standards are needed to protect all proposed uses of
the site and adjacent business because there is no on -street parking at either the Broad
Resolution No. 9594 (2004`6eries) -
Page 3
Street or Sacramento Drive frontages of the project site.
5. A mixed -use parking reduction of 26% is appropriate because parking areas on the site
are shared and the peak hours of parking demand differ between the residential and
commercial uses on the site.
Section 4. Master Use Permit Findings. This permit is intended to serve as a Master Use
Permit for Special Considerations, Restaurants, Medical Services — Doctor's Office, Office —
Production and Administrative, and Office - Processing.
Special Considerations (Required Findings)
The project is supported by Cal -Trans, which reviewed the preliminary design of
the driveway entrances and exits and participated in the environmental review of
the project.
2. Necessary public improvements are being secured through the permitting of the
development, including frontage improvements, street trees, traffic signal
improvements, street lighting and fire hydrants.
3. Site drainage has been designed consistent with the requirements of the
Waterways Management Plan, in consideration of the unique site constraints, such
as the culvert of Orcutt Creek at the southwest property line.
4. The project insures safe, orderly development within the Broad Street Annexation
Area because the project helps satisfy City goals for maintaining compact urban
form and is consistent with the General Plan.
Medical Services (Required Findings)
1. Medical services are compatible with surrounding land uses because adequate
parking is provided on -site to accommodate a wide range of mixed uses and, as
conditioned,
2. The project site is located along Broad Street, a street designated as an arterial,
and Sacramento Drive, a street designated as a commercial collector in the
Circulation Element and has convenient access to public transportation because of
a transit stop located at the Broad Street project frontage.
3. The proposed medical service will not significantly increase traffic in residential
neighborhoods because the project site has access to Broad Street and is not
located adjacent to a residential neighborhood. Public use of the proposed
medical services does not require on -site traffic to pass through the residential
area.
Resolution No. 9594 (2004 Series)
Page 4
4. The proposed medical service is consistent with the Airport Land Use Plan
(ALUP) because the Airport Land Use Commission approved offices for the
project site and the overall development is consistent with the Safety Policies of
the ALUP.
5. The project will not preclude service commercial uses in areas especially suited
for these uses when compared with medical services because the project site is
especially suited for a mixed -use project because of its location.
Offices (Required Findings)
1. Offices will be compatible with existing and proposed uses in the area because the
project site has access to Broad Street, public transportation, bike routes and
convenience facilities for employees are anticipated on -site.
2. The project location will not significantly direct traffic to use streets in residential
zones because there are no residential zones bordering the project site.
3. The project will provide adequate mitigation to address potential impacts related
to noise, light and glare, loss of privacy and other impacts on nearby residential -
areas because, as a mixed -use project, these considerations are integral part of the
project design.
4. The project will not preclude industrial or service commercial uses in areas
especially suited for these uses because the proposed location is more suited to the
types of retail and service uses allowed in the Service Commercial zone, than it is
to industrial uses because of the high visibility of the Broad Street corridor.
5. The project will not create a shortage of C-S zoned land available for service
commercial or industrial development because there are vacant, developable and
under-utilized properties through -out the City in the C-S zone and the City is
currently developing Specific Plans for two major expansion areas that will be
able to accommodate these uses.
Section 6. Conditions of Approval. The Council does hereby establish the following
conditions of approval.
Mixed -Use Project Conditions
The Inclusionary Housing Requirement for the project is 10 ADUs. A minimum of 6
affordable dwelling units shall be provided by the developer in a manner consistent with
the City's Affordable Housing. Standards, to include at least 3 rentals and 3 for -sale units

3. Mitigation — Air Quality
The project site is located in a Naturally Occurring Asbestos candidate area. Naturally
Occurring Asbestos has been identified by the state Air Resources Board as a toxic air
contaminant. Serpentine and ultramafic rocks are very common in the state and may
contain naturally occurring asbestos. Under the State Air Resources Board Air Toxics
Control Measure (ATCM) for Construction, Grading, Quarrying, and Surface Mining
Operations, the applicant must comply with all requirements outlined in the Asbestos
ATCM for Construction, Grading, Quarrying, and Surface Mining Operations. These
requirements may include but are not limited to 1) an Asbestos Dust Mitigation Plan
which must be approved by the District before construction begins, and 2) an Asbestos
Health and Safety Program will also be required for some projects, to the approval of the
APCD. The APCD monitors State air quality requirements and will be routed plans that
are submitted for building permits for the project to insure compliance with all standards
and requirements. APCD also responds in the field during construction on a complaint
basis.
• Monitoring Program:
Building permits for the project will not be issued until the APCD has "signed -off' on the
applicant's Asbestos Dust Mitigation Plan and Asbestos Health and Safety Program.
4. Mitigation — Biological Resources
An exclusion fence delineating the required 20-foot setback shall be installed along each
bank of the creek prior to construction. A qualified biological monitor shall be present
during all construction or landscaping activities scheduled to take place within the
barrier, to the approval of the Natural Resources Manager.
• Monitoring Program:
The Planning Division of the Community Development Department will review plans
submitted with a building permit and require his mitigation measure to be clearly printed
on all plan sheets that show any portion of the creek. The Building Inspector and Public
Works Inspector will also monitor this requirement during daily inspections of the project
site.
5. Mitigation — Biological Resources
Erosion control measures shall be used to ensure that no sedimentation of the stream
channel occurs as a result of construction activities.
Broad Street Mixed Use (ER 24-03) 3 of 6
10 Exhibit A
• Monitoring Program:
The Planning Division of the Community Development Department will review plans
submitted with a building permit and require his mitigation measure to be clearly printed
on all plan sheets that show any portion of the creek. The Public Works Department will
review all grading plans to insure implementation of BMPS's for soil erosion. The
Building Inspector and Public Works Inspector will monitor these requirements during
daily inspections of the project site.
6. Mitigation — Biological Resources
Landscaping along the creek channel shall include the planting of native riparian trees
such as sycamores and cottonwoods. These trees shall be maintained so that they
eventually produce a canopy that will shade sections of the stream channel that are
currently choked with cattails. This measure is intended to inhibit cattail growth and
create more open water areas, which would improve habitat for southwestern pond
turtles.
• Monitoring Program:
The final restoration landscaping plan for the creek will be reviewed and approved by the
Natural Resources Manager who will also make a final inspection of the project to insure
that the landscaping has been installed per plan, prior to project occupancy.
T. Mitigation —Biological Resources
Invasive plant species within the riparian corridor shall be removed from the site and
disposed of in a proper manner.
• Monitoring Program:
The final restoration landscaping plan for the creek will be reviewed and approved by the
Natural Resources Manager who will also make a final inspection of the project to insure
that the landscaping has been installed per plan, prior to project occupancy.
8. Mitigation— Biological Resources
The Architectural Review Commission shall review the design and location of all fencing
proposed adjacent to the creek to insure consistency with the Creek Setback Ordinance
and the Community Design Guidelines.
• Monitoring Program:
The applicant will be required to prepare a detailed fencing plan prior to final ARC
review of the project. The ARC will be asked to review the design and location of the
Broad Street Mixed Use (ER 24-03) 4 of 6
n Exhibit A
fence, consistent with any other mitigation measures or conditions of approval required
by the City Council.
9. Mitigation — Hazards (Airport)
Construction of more than 61 residential units on the project site is subject to City
approval of an Administrative Use Permit. The purpose of the use permit will be to
evaluate consistency with the Airport Land Use Plan. The use permit will be referred to
the ALUC, unless prior changes to the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance that are
approved by the ALUC make such a referral unnecessary.
• Monitoring Program:
Prior to issuance of building permits for more than 61 residential units on the project site,
the City must approve: an Administrative Use Permit. The Use Permit is needed to insure
consistency with the Airport Land Use Plan. The Use Permit will be forwarded to the
Airport Land Use Commission for a consistency determination prior to issuance of any
building permit that would allow construction of more than 61 units.
10. Mitigation — Hazards (Airport)
The applicant shall be required to submit proof that a real estate disclosure form and an
avigation easement have been recorded, or are in the process of being recorded, prior to
building permit issuance for any development on the project site.
• Monitoring Program:
These documents will be reviewed by the Planning Division of the Community
Development Department before permits are issued for construction.
11. Mitigation — Noise— Noise
The following construction methods shall be employed to achieve a Noise Level
Reduction (NLR) of 20 dB for transportation related noise sources:
a. Air conditioning or mechanical ventilation systems shall be provided as
recommended by the noise study so that doors and windows can be kept fully closed
during noisy times.
b. The project shall be constructed with windows and sliding glass doors that have
low air leak rate frames (less than .5 cfm per foot of crack length, per standard test).
c. All exterior doors shall be of solid -core construction, with full perimeter weather
stipping and threshold seals.
• Monitoring Program:
These requirements are routinely monitored by the Building Division of the Community
Development Department during their review of plans submitted with a building permit
application.
Broad Street Mixed Use (ER 24-03) 5 of 6
Exhibit A
12. Mitigation — Noise
A 17 dB noise level reduction is required to mitigate the noise level created by the fan at
Level 3. This level of noise reduction can be achieved if the existing iron security fence
that surrounds the exterior generators is modified to become a noise barrier on the south
and east sides. The applicant shall replace these portions of the existing fence with a
sound barrier wall of masonry construction and height of about 18 to 20 feet.
• Monitoring Program:
The requirement is monitored by Architectural Review of the wall design and a detailed
review of building plans to insure consistency with the noise reduction requirements.
The mitigation measure will be made a condition of project approval and the wall will
have to be completely installed before occupancy of the project is permitted.
13. Mitigation —Noise
Because of the proximity between the UPS facility parking lot and the nearest proposed
residences, a continuous sound barrier along the sites common property line with the UPS
property is required to achieve the required 10 dB of noise reduction. The design of the
noise barrier shall be reviewed and approved by the Architectural Review Commission
prior to action on this Initial Study, to insure that the proposed wall can be implemented
in a manner consistent with the City's Community Design Guidelines.
• Monitoring Program:
The requirement is monitored by Architectural Review of the wall design and a detailed
review of building plans to insure consistency with the noise reduction requirements.
The mitigation measure will be made a condition of project approval and the wall will
have to be completely installed before occupancy of the project is permitted.
