BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo as follows:
SECTION 1. Planned Development Rezone Findings. Based upon all the evidence, the City
Council makes the following findings:
1. The project is consistent with the General Plan and the Airport Land Use Plan, and the proposed
residential land use is allowed within the primary zoning district (R -1).
2. The project complies with all applicable provisions of the Zoning Regulations other than those
modified by the PD rezoning, which include: clustering of units within lots smaller than
otherwise allowed, reduced street yards, and alternative fencing standards and requirements.
3. The approved modifications to the development standards of the Zoning Regulations, listed in
Finding No. 2, are necessary and appropriate to accommodate the superior design of the
proposed project, its compatibility with adjacent land uses, and its successful mitigation of
environmental impacts.
4. The project complies with all applicable City Design Guidelines and establishes additional
parameters to ensure development is in harmony with nature and the adjacent neighborhood
5. All necessary public facilities, services, and utilities are available and adequate to serve the
proposed project.
6. The location, size, site planning, building design features, and operating characteristics of the
project are highly suited to the characteristics of the site and surrounding neighborhood, and will be

Page 2
compatible with the character of the site, and the land uses and development intended for the
surrounding neighborhood by the General Plan.
7. The site is adequate for the project in terms of size, configuration topography, and other applicable
features, and has appropriate access to public streets with adequate capacity to accommodate the
quantity and type of traffic expected to be generated by the use.
8. With the incorporation of conditions of approval and mitigation measures listed in the Mitigated
Negative Declaration of Environmental Impact, the establishment, maintenance, or operation of the
proposed project will not, in the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health,
safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity of the proposed use, or be
detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare
of the City.
SECTION 2. Subdivision Findings. Based upon all the evidence, the City Council makes the
following findings:
1. The proposed subdivision, together with the provisions for its design and improvement, is
consistent with the General Plan and Airport Land Use Plan, including compatibility with the
objectives, policies, general land uses and programs specified in the General Plan.
2. The design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive or natural
heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision.

officers and employees from any claim, action or proceeding against the City or its agents,
officers or employees to attach set aside, void or annul an approval of the City Council, Planning
Commission, or City Staff concerning a subdivision.
4. The proposed tentative tract map is consistent with the General Plan, including Land Use
Element Policies 2.2.6, 2.2.8 and 2.2.11, and Conservation and Open Space Element Policies
7.3.1.1), 7.5.1, 7.5.4, 8.6.3 and 8.3.2.A, because the subdivision will provide residential
development anticipated by the General Plan and preserve and incorporate as amenities natural
site features and sensitive natural resources.
5. The site is physically suited for the proposed type of development because the project has been
designed to utilize available residential density while protecting open space resources.
6. With the incorporation of the recommended conditions and mitigation measures, the design of
the subdivision and improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or
substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat because the project will
adequately protect in- place, relocate, or replace open space resources.
7. The design of the subdivision, or type of improvements, is not likely to cause serious public
health or safety problems because the type of improvements are appropriate for the location and
will be designed to meet existing building and safety codes.

site, the area should be reinspected, thus allowing effective surface reconnaissance.
15. After the unconsolidated fill material is removed from the central portion of the site the area
should be reinspected, thus allowing effective surface reconnaissance.
16. In the event that buried cultural material bearing deposits are exposed during any future
construction, all work should cease in the immediate area (within 50 meters) until the materials
can be evaluated by a qualified archaeologist and, if prehistoric, a recognized representative of
the Chumash Nation.
Hazardous and Hazardous Materials
17. A soil sampling plan for the concrete /rubble /fill area shall be submitted to the City of San Luis
Obispo Fire Department for review and approval. The work shall then be completed prior to site

benefits for each regular, full -time employee covered by this Agreement. Less than
full -time employees shall receive a prorated share of the City's contribution.
Employee $470.00

r 2007 (for the January 2008 premium), the contributions will be
$489.00
$889.00
$1,178.00
Effective in December 2008 (for the January 2009 premium), in December 2009 (for
the January 2010 premium), in December 2010 (for the January 2011 premium), and
in December 2011 (for the January 2012 premium), the City's total Cafeteria Plan
contribution shall be modified by an amount equal to one -half of the average
percentage change for family coverage in the PERS health plans available in San Luis
County. For example: if three plans were available and the year -to -year changes were
+10 %, +15 %, and +20% respectively, the City's contribution would be increased by
7.5% (10% + 15% + 20% _ 3 = 15% X 1/2).
The Cafeteria Plan amount is inclusive of mandatory dental and vision coverage.
Employees shall be eligible for the City contributions set forth above based on the
number of dependents they enroll in the PERS Health Benefit Program. Employees
20
o
opting out of health coverage as provided for below shall receive payment at the

12.2 INSURANCE COVERAGE
PERS Health Benefit Program
•
The City has elected to participate in the PERS Health Benefit Program with the
"unequal contribution option" at the PERS minimum contribution rate, currently
$80.80 per month for active employees and $20.30 per month for retirees. The City's
contribution toward retirees shall be increased by 5% per year of the City's
contribution for the active employees until such time as the contributions for
employees and retirees are equal. The City's contribution will come out of that amount
the City currently contributes to employees as part of the Cafeteria Plan. The cost of
the City's participation in PERS will not require the City to expend additional funds
toward health insurance beyond what is already provided for above in Section 12.1. In
summary, this cost and any increases will be borne by the employees.
12.3 Health Insurance Coverage Optional Participation
Employees with proof of medical insurance elsewhere are not required to participate in
the PERS Health Benefit Program and may receive the unused portion of the City's
contribution (after dental and vision is deducted) in cash in accordance with the City's
Cafeteria Plan. Those employees will also be assessed $16.00 per month to be placed
in the Retiree Health Insurance Account. This account will be used to fund the Retiree
Health Insurance Account. This account will be used to fund the City's contribution
toward retiree premiums and the City's costs for the Public Employee's Contingency
Reserve Fund and the Administrative Costs. However, there is no requirement that
21
N
these funds be used exclusively for this purpose nor any guarantee that they will be
sufficient to fund retiree health costs, although they will be used for negotiated
CP
employee benefits.
12.4 Dental and Vision Insurance/Dependent Coverage
Employees will be required to participate in the City's dental and vision plans at the
employee only rate. Should they elect to cover dependents in the City's dental and
vision plans, they may do so, even if they do not have dependent coverage under

CONDOMINIUMS WITHIN THE APPROVED "VILLAGE AT
MAYMONT PROJECT" LOCATED AT 2238 BROAD STREET
(CITY FILE NO. TR 62 -05)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission 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 8, 2007, and recommended approval of Application TR 62 -05, a request to
create 82 residential and 27 commercial airspace condominiums; and
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
September 18, 2007, for the purpose of considering Application TR 62 -05; and
WHEREAS, the Council previously approved on July 18, 2006, a Mitigated Negative
Declaration of environmental impact for the project; and

recommendation of the Planning Commission, testimony of interested parties, and the evaluation
and recommendations by staff, presented at said hearing..
BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo as follows:
SECTION 1. Findings. Based upon all the evidence, the City Council makes the
following findings:
1. The design of the tentative tract map is consistent with the General Plan because the project
will incrementally add to the City's housing inventory, provides privacy for occupants and
neighbors of the project, provides separate paths for vehicles and pedestrians and is
consistent with the scale and character of surrounding developments.
2. The site is physically suited for the proposed type of development allowed because it is
adjacent to existing street right -of -ways with complete City services.
3. The design of the subdivision will not conflict with easements for access through (or use of
property within) the proposed subdivision since all adjacent properties are accessed
independently.
4. The design of the tentative tract map and proposed improvements are not likely to cause
serious health problems, substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably
injure fish or wildlife or their habitat because the site does not have any creeks or other
potentially significant habitat areas for fish and wildlife, is surrounded by urban

and water services to the curb stop.
4. LANDSCAPING

inspection and approval of such facilities by the City, each public utility shall be
required to file a letter stating that the developer has properly installed all facilities to
be provided by him, and that the said utility is prepared to provide service to
residents upon request.
8. ANY & ALL OTHER IMPROVEMENTS shown on plans or required by City
regulations.
All of the above facilities shall be installed in the locations designated and to the plans and
specifications on file and approved by said City Engineer.
The lines and grades for all of said improvements shall be established by the

The Subdivider agrees that the work of installing the above improvements shall
begin within thirty (30) days from the date of recording of the final map, and that the work
shall be completed within twelve (12) months of said recording date, unless an extension
has been granted by the City, provided that if completion of said work is delayed by acts of

period of time equivalent to such period of delay in which to complete such work. Any
extension of time hereunder shall not operate to release the surety on the Improvement

obligation to maintain the improvements shall remain the sole responsibility of the
subdivider until all required public improvements have been accepted by the local agency
and all other required improvements have been fully completed in accordance with the

improvements have been completed and are ready for inspection and acceptance by City,
City agrees to promptly take all actions necessary to inspect and accept such
improvements (subject to Subdivider's obligation to correct any defects in such
improvements).
Completion of the work shall be deemed to have occurred on the date which the
City Council shall, by resolution duly passed and adopted, accept said improvements
according to said plans and specifications, and any approved modifications thereto.
Neither periodic nor progress inspections or approvals shall bind the City to accept said
improvements or waive any defects in the same or any breach of this agreement.
If the Subdivider fails to complete the work within the prescribed time, the
Subdivider agrees that City may, of its option, declare the instrument of credit or bond
which has been posted by Subdivider to guarantee faithful performance, forfeited and
utilize the proceeds to complete said improvements, or city may complete said
improvements and recover the full cost and expense thereof from the Subdivider or his
surety.

In accordance with the policy framework set forth in Chapter 3.24 of the municipal code, City
purchases and contracts (including those for rentals and leases, but excluding those for real
property) will be made pursuant to these guidelines. Applicable competitive bidding categories,
authorization limits or contract award procedures will be based on unit cost, total purchase cost
for consolidated bid items or fiscal year aggregates in the case of blanket purchase orders or
similar ongoing purchasing arrangements. Staging of purchases in order to avoid these
competitive bidding procedures or authorization limits is prohibited.
GENERAL PURCHASES
Purchases and contracts for supplies, equipment, operating and maintenance services, and
construction projects will be made pursuant to the following guidelines.
A. Over - the - Counter. Purchases of less than $7,500 may be authorized by the Department
Head. Although no specific purchasing requirements are established for this level of
purchase, competitive bidding should be used whenever practical.
B. Open Market. Purchases between $7,500 and $25,000 may be authorized by the Director of
Finance & Information Technology (or designee) pursuant to the open market bidding
procedures established in Chapter 3.24 (Article II) of the municipal code.
C. Formal Bids or Proposals. Purchases in excess of $25,000 will be made pursuant to the
formal bidding requirements established in Chapter 3.24 (Article III) of the municipal code.
Authority to approve specifications, invite bids or request proposals and award contracts will
be as follows:
1. For purchases with an approved budget and a cost estimate of $100,000 or less, the City
Administrative Officer is authorized to invite bids or request proposals, approve
specifications and award the contract.
2. For purchases in excess of $100,000, Council approval of the specifications and
authorization to invite bids or request proposals is required. The Council may authorize
the City Administrative Officer to award the contract if the selected bid or proposal is
less than or equal to the Council- approved cost estimate and there are no substantive
changes to the specifications. Otherwise, Council award of the contract is required.
D. Job Order Contracts: Construction Projects. Under the Job Order Contact provisions of
Chapter 3.24 (Article III) of the municipal code for maintenance - related construction
projects, individual Task Orders up to $25,000 may be approved by the City Engineer.
Individual Task Orders in excess of $25,000 require approval by the City Administrative
Officer.
CONSULTANT SERVICES
Contracts for consultant services will be awarded pursuant to the following guidelines.
Purchasing Guidelines
A. Contracts for consultant services estimated to cost less than $7,500 may be awarded by the
Department Head. Although no specific purchasing requirements are established for this
level of contract, proposals should be solicited whenever practical.
B. Contracts for consulting services estimated to cost between $7,500 and $25,000 may be
awarded by the City Administrative Officer. Proposals from at least three firms should be
solicited whenever practical.
C. Contracts for consultant services estimated to cost more than $25,000 will generally be
awarded pursuant to the following guidelines; however, it is recognized that the City's need
for consultant services will vary from situation to situation, and accordingly, flexibility will
be provided in determining the appropriate evaluation and selection process to be used in
each specific circumstance.
The Council should generally approve request for proposal (RFP) documents before they
are issued. The Council may authorize the City Administrative Officer to award the
contract if it is less than or equal to the Council- approved cost estimate and there are no
substantive changes to the approved workscope. Otherwise, Council award of the
contract is required.
2. In the event that the timely evaluation and selection of a consultant precludes Council
approval of the RFP before it is issued, the RFP may be approved and distributed by the
City Administrative Officer; however, award of the contract will be made by the Council.
3. Cost will not be the sole criterion in selecting the successful bidder. Consultant proposals
will be evaluated based on a combination of factors that result in the best value to the
City, including but not limited to:
a. Understanding of the work required by the City
b. Quality and responsiveness of the proposal
c. Demonstrated competence and professional qualifications necessary for satisfactory
performance of the work required by the City
d. Recent experience in successfully performing similar services
e. Proposed methodology for completing the work
f. References
g. Background and related experience of the specific individuals to be assigned to the
project
h. Proposed compensation
4. If it is determined that it is in the best interest of the City for services to be provided by a
specific consultant—with contract terms, workscope and compensation to be determined
based on direct negotiations —contract award will be made by the Council.
