SUBJECT: R 106 -99, ER 106 -99: FINAL PASSAGE OF ORDINANCE NO. 1364
AMENDING ZONING. AT 3001/3045 JOHNSON AVENUE; JUDSON
TERRACE LODGE, APPLICANT.
CAO RECOMMENDATION
Grant final passage to Ordinance No. 1364 (1999 Series).
DISCUSSION
On December 13, 1999, the City Council voted 5 -0 to introduce Ordinance No. 1364 to print
This ordinance approves a mitigated negative declaration of environmental impact (ER 106 -99),
and amends the City's Zoning Regulations map from R -1 (Low- Density Residential) to R-4-S
(High- Density Residential with a Special Considerations overlay) to provide for the development
of senior frail elderly housing at 3001/3045 Johnson Avenue. The special considerations ( "S ")
overlay zone is a tool to guarantee that future development addresses neighborhood compatibility
issues such as noise, lighting, parking and aesthetics. In addition, future development will be
limited to two stories. The "S" overlay zone also requires an administrative use permit to
establish proposed uses on the property. Ordinance No. 1364 is now ready for final passage.
A summary of the ordinance, with the official Council vote, will be published at least five (5) days
prior to its final passage in the Tribune. This ordinance will go into effect at the expiration of thirty
(30) days after its final passage.
Environmental Review
The City Council approved a Negative Declaration with mitigation measures (ER 106 -99) for the
proposed rezone on December 13, 1999. ER 106 -99 addressed potentially significant, but
mitigable, impacts to land use compatibility, traffic/circulation, parking, noise, lighting, geologic
hazards, drainage and solid waste. Impacts to other environmental areas were determined to be less
than significant The Mitigated Negative Declaration concluded that the project will not have a
significant adverse impact on the environment.

Consequences of Not Taking the Recommended Action
If the council does not give final passage to the ordinance, the property's land use and zoning
designations would remain R -1 (Low- Density Residential), and the planned senior frail elderly
housing project could not be developed.

AMENDING THE ZONING REGULATIONS MAP
TO CHANGE THE DESIGNATION FROM R -1 to R-4-S
AT 3001/3045 JOHNSON AVENUE (R 106 -99)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on November 17, 1999, and
recommended approval of the amendment to the City's Zoning Map; and
WHEREAS, the City Council held a public hearing on December 13, 1999 and has considered
testimony of other interested parties, the records of the Planning Commission hearing and action, and the
evaluation and recommendation of staff.; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the proposed revisions are consistent with the General
Plan, the purposes of the Zoning Regulations and other applicable City ordinances; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the draft Mitigated Negative Declaration of
environmental impact as prepared by staff and reviewed by the Planning Commission; and
BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo as follows:
SECTION 1. The City Council finds and determines that the project's Negative Declaration
with the recommended mitigation therein adequately addresses the potential significant environmental
impacts of the proposed project, and reflects the independent judgment of the City Council. The
Council hereby adopts said Negative Declaration and incorporates the following mitigation measures
into the project:
A Special Considerations ( "S ") overlay zone shall be placed on the property. The "S" overlay
zone is a tool to guarantee that the neighborhood compatibility issues are not overlooked. The
special consideration overlay will document that any proposed development on the site should be
reviewed for neighborhood compatibility and will require an administrative use permit to
establish proposed uses on the property. Potential land use compatibility issues will be addressed
through project design and incorporation of adequate buffers.
2. Future development on the site shall incorporate facilities for interior and exterior on -site
recycling. In addition, site development shall include a solid waste recycling plan for recycling
discarded building materials such as concrete, drywall, wood and metals from the construction
site. The plans must be submitted for approval by the Community Development Director prior to
building permit issuance.
3. Any development on the site shall require architectural review to assure that impacts to views
and light/glare are addressed properly.

SECTION 2. The City Council makes the following findings:
1. R4-S zoning will allow uses that are compatible with existing and allowed land uses in the area.
2. The "S" overlay zoning will document that any proposed development should be reviewed for
neighborhood compatibility and require the processing of an administrative use permit to
establish any use. Future development shall not exceed two- stories.
3. The proposed zone change will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of persons
residing or working in the vicinity because the zone change will result in the property being
developed with residential uses.

property rezoned to High Density Residential with Special Considerations (R -4 -S) as shown on attached
Exhibit "A."
