Subject: RE: 143 Suburban - CC&R Amendment
Hi Linda,
I just left a message for Roy to give me a call to discuss a couple of issues. Sorry for the delay in jumping into this
process as I know that this proposal has been in the works for some time. Please see the couple of attached docs for
the map and off-site parking Use Permit for reference. A couple of my questions and possible suggestions for Roy
and team are as follows:
1) We probably need to have a better understanding of the overall parking required and provided for Lot 2 and
maybe Lot 1 if needed. The offsite parking required for Lot 2 clouded Lots 3, 4, & 5. The off-site parking may
be capable of being restored to Lot 2 with the proposed parking modification plan on file with the City. The
project data may need to be updated to provide further clarification.
2) It appears that the required parking for Lot 5 (Trust Automation Children’s Center) was provided on their Lot 5
but was clouded as an easement and required parking count in favor of Lot 2. It is not clear whether the
parking required and parking provided for Lot 2 and Lot 5 double-dipped on using the Lot 5 spaces. That could
be corrected through this process.
3) Lot 5 still needs required parking. If the parking is retained on their lot, the easement in favor of Lot 2 should
be extinguished or the Lot 5 parking provided through an off-site agreement elsewhere on this campus.
4) If the Lot 5 parking remains on Lot 5, they will need an easement across Lots 1 and/or Lot 2 to legally access
their parking. (I believe that the City and developer may have missed this point with the development of Lot
5). The CCR’s include a maintenance provision for a portion of Lot 1 within the access easement in favor of
Lot 5 but the easement on the map is truncated and access is not currently provided to the required parking
spaces.
5) It seems like Lot 1 would desire access along the easterly drive aisle of Lot 2 rather than just the access along
the westerly property line and from Earthwood. Creating an additional easement along the drive aisle of Lot 2
could be in favor of both Lot 1 and 5 to resolve the access issues.
6) The map shows that Lots 3 – 5 are clouded with the parking but it also includes some narrow utility easements
located at the head of the parking easement/parking area in favor of Lot 1 that will continue to cloud those
several servient tenements.
We have not yet formalized our review of the proposed amendments as I wanted to discuss what the ultimate goals
and strategies might be for your client. I understand that architect Francis Fan-Gibbs has prepared some site
plans/parking lot development plans and could probably assist in all of this to provide exhibits necessary to resolved
any lingering issues. Also, Mike Hodge as the original civil engineer of record through the entitlement and
development plan process might be able to provide any additional insight. We will also have building plans or
improvement plans available if necessary to review the utility easements across Lots 3 – 5. I believe that the utility
easements may no longer be required as gravity drainage and gravity sewer is now available downstream with the
11
development of the Avila Ranch infrastructure. Let us know how we can help and whether an in-person (office or field)
or virtual meeting might be helpful. Otherwise, e-mail, call or text my City cell number. Regards, Hal

SUBJECT: Use Permit Appl. A 120-11: 143 Suburban Road
Dear Mr. Ball:
On Friday, November 4, 2011, I conducted a public hearing on your request for a Use
Permit to allow required parking to be located on a site different from the use at the above
location.
After reviewing the information presented, I have approved your request, based on the
following findings and subject to the following conditions:
Findings
1. As conditioned, the proposed use will not adversely affect the health, safety, or
welfare of persons living or working in the vicinity because parking is being
maintained for users of the site.
2. Off-site parking is acceptable at this location because proposed off-site parking is
within a zone where the use is allowed, within 300 feet of the use, and is not
separated from the use by any feature that would make pedestrian access
inconvenient or hazardous.
3. The project is categorically exempt from environmental review (Class 1, Section
15301, Existing Facilities, CEQA Guidelines).
Conditions
1. The 30 parking spaces across lots 3, 4, and 5 shall be owned, leased, or otherwise
controlled by the party controlling the use at 143 Suburban Road (lot 2).
2. A minimum of 30 parking spaces across lots 3, 4, and 5 shall be dedicated as
parking for 143 Suburban Road (lot 2). Future development on lots 3, 4, and 5
shall provide additional parking as required for those uses, separate from the 30
parking spaces allotted to 143 Suburban Road.
A 120-11 (143 Suburban Road)
Page 2
3. An off-site parking agreement providing for a minimum of 30 parking spaces
across lots 3, 4, and 5 to be used as parking for 143 Suburban (lot 2) shall be
recorded prior to, or concurrent with, final recording of the tentative tract map for
tract 2943.
4. If parking availability becomes impacted, the City retains the right to require
additional parking mitigation measures including, but not limited to, revocation of
this use permit, limiting occupancy loads, or additional off-site parking agreements
with adjacent property owners.
5. This use permit shall be reviewed by the Administrative Hearing Officer if any
reasonable written complaint is received from any citizen or from the Police
Department or upon receipt of evidence that the use is not in compliance with
conditions of approval and the Municipal Code. At the time of the use permit
review, to insure on-going compatibility between uses on the project site,
conditions of approval may be added, deleted, or modified or the use permit may
be revoked. The Hearing Officer may refer the complaint to the Planning
Commission at his/her discretion.
Informational Note: Upon future change of ownership, a new off-site parking
agreement shall be recorded between the owner of 143 Suburban (lot 2) and lots 3, 4,
and 5 respectively.
My decision is final unless appealed to the Planning Commission within 10 days of the
action. Any person aggrieved by the decision may file an appeal. Appeal forms are
available in the Community Development Department or on the City’s website
(www.slocity.org). The fee for filing an appeal is $261 and must accompany the appeal
documentation.
If you have any questions, please call Marcus Carloni at (805) 781-7176.

Hello Hal
Per your suggestion of concurrent processing, we have submitted a building permit to add
additional parking spaces (GRAD-1388-2022) on the property and now we are ready to send in the
CC&R amendment for your review.
Unless I hear otherwise, I will send in 2 paper sets of the amendment and follow up with
electronic copy to you. I’ll also email you the electronic parking lot plan for reference.
Please confirm I need to submit a PLANNING application for this scope. Any other forms
necessary? City should already have authorization of owner form from the parking lot submittal.
If you could confirm the above, I’ll get package ready to send in.

WHEREAS, the Declaration was recorded on July 23, 2013, as instrument number
2013042695 in the Office of the San Luis Obispo County Clerk/Recorder, affecting the
Earthwood Lane property described in the Declaration; and
WHEREAS, Section 9.4 of Part 9 of the Declaration provides for amendment by an
instrument in writing signed by the holders of 2/3 of the votes of the Owners of the Earthwood

SUBJECT: Use Permit Appl. A 120-11: 143 Suburban Road
Dear Mr. Ball:
On Friday, November 4, 2011, I conducted a public hearing on your request for a Use
Permit to allow required parking to be located on a site different from the use at the above
location.
After reviewing the information presented, I have approved your request, based on the
following findings and subject to the following conditions:
Findings
1. As conditioned, the proposed use will not adversely affect the health, safety, or
welfare of persons living or working in the vicinity because parking is being

2. Off-site parking is acceptable at this location because proposed off-site parking is

Conditions
1. The 30 parking spaces across lots 3, 4, and 5 shall be owned, leased, or otherwise
controlled by the party controlling the use at 143 Suburban Road (lot 2).
2. A minimum of 30 parking spaces across lots 3, 4, and 5 shall be dedicated as
parking for 143 Suburban Road (lot 2). Future development on lots 3, 4, and 5
shall provide additional parking as required for those uses, separate from the 30
parking spaces allotted to 143 Suburban Road.

3. An off-site parking agreement providing for a minimum of 30 parking spaces
across lots 3, 4, and 5 to be used as parking for 143 Suburban (lot 2) shall be
recorded prior to, or concurrent with, final recording of the tentative tract map for
tract 2943.
4. If parking availability becomes impacted, the City retains the right to require
additional parking mitigation measures including, but not limited to, revocation of
this use permit, limiting occupancy loads, or additional off-site parking agreements
with adjacent property owners.
5. This use permit shall be reviewed by the Administrative Hearing Officer if any
reasonable written complaint is received from any citizen or from the Police
Department or upon receipt of evidence that the use is not in compliance with
conditions of approval and the Municipal Code. At the time of the use permit
review, to insure on-going compatibility between uses on the project site,
conditions of approval may be added, deleted, or modified or the use permit may
be revoked. The Hearing Officer may refer the complaint to the Planning
Commission at his/her discretion.
Informational Note: Upon future change of ownership, a new off-site parking
agreement shall be recorded between the owner of 143 Suburban (lot 2) and lots 3, 4,
and 5 respectively.
My decision is final unless appealed to the Planning Commission within 10 days of the
action. Any person aggrieved by the decision may file an appeal. Appeal forms are
available in the Community Development Department or on the City’s website
(www.slocity.org). The fee for filing an appeal is $261 and must accompany the appeal
