Project also includes an off-site parking request and a categorical exemption from CEQA. PROJECT ADDRESS: 110, 120, 130, 140 Grand Ave. BY: Marcus Carloni, Associate Planner Phone Number: 781-7176 e-mail: mcarloni@slocity.org FILE NUMBER: U 141-14 FROM: Doug Davidson, Deputy Director RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Draft Resolution (Attachment 1) denying the Use Permit due to inconsistency with General Plan policy. SITE DATA Applicant SLO Classical Academy Representative Tim Ronda, SDG Architects, INC Zoning R-1 (Low Density Residential) General Plan Low Density Residential Site Area 0.41 Acres (18,000 square feet) Environmental Status Statutorily exempt from environmental review under Section 15270 (Projects Which Are Disapproved) of the CEQA Guidelines. SUMMARY The proposed project is to repurpose five existing residential structures (and garages) for use as satellite high school classrooms for the SLO Classical Academy. The project mainly includes accessible pathway upgrades for access to the proposed classrooms; minimal exterior modifications are otherwise proposed. Additionally, the applicant is requesting approval of off-site parking in order to utilize the existing parking spaces at the main SLO Classical Academy campus located across Grand Avenue to the west. Staff has noted that the project is compliant with the necessary findings for Use Permit approval, but has highlighted that the project appears inconsistent with General Plan Land Use Element policy 2.2.1 due to the removal of existing residences for a non-residential use [see section 3.0 and 3.1 below]. However, as discussed in section 3.2 below, the project is consistent with policy 2.2.13 and the Planning Commission could find the project consistent with the intent of policy 2.2.1 and choose to approve the project by adopting Alternative 1. PC2 - 1 U 141-14 (110, 120, 130, 140 Grand Avenue) Page 2 1.0 COMMISSION’S PURVIEW The Planning Commission’s role is to review the project in terms of it’s consistent with the Zoning Regulations, General Plan, and applicable City standards. 2.0 PROJECT INFORMATION 2.1 Site Information/Setting The project site is approximately 18,000 square feet in size with five single-story residential structures located on three existing parcels (see attachment 4, Project Plans, Sheet A-3) in the R-1 (Low Density Residential) zone. The existing residential structures are legal non-conforming due to substandard street yard and other yard setbacks and the existing garages are legal non- conforming due to substandard other yard setbacks. The project site is surrounded by R-1 zoning with the San Luis Coastal School District Property located across Grand Avenue to the west. 2.2 Project Description A summary of significant project features includes the following (Attachment 4, Project Plans & Attachment 5, School Schedule and Outdoor Use Description): 1. Use of five existing residential structures as satellite High School classrooms associated with the SLO Classical Academy. a. Program currently includes 35 students. b. Students meet on campus 3-days a week (7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.) and study from home the other 2 week days. c. 7 staff members on-site. 2. Site Modifications: a. Interior remodels to create classrooms, staff offices, and restroom facilities. b. Minimal exterior modifications to the existing structure. c. Accessible path upgrades accessing the rear of the proposed classrooms. d. Removal of two existing non-compliant curb openings (Grand Avenue) to be replaced with sidewalk. e. Upgrade of one existing curb opening (Grand Avenue) to provide an on-site accessible parking space. Site Size ~18,000 square feet (0.41 Acres) Present Use & Development Five existing residential structures and associated garages with access driveways. Land Use Designation R-1 (Low Density Residential) Access Grand Avenue & Slack Street Surrounding Use/Zoning North: Cal Poly (County Land) South: Residences (R-1 zoning) East: Residences (R-1 zoning) West: San Luis Coastal School District Property (PF zoning) PC2 - 2 U 141-14 (110, 120, 130, 140 Grand Avenue) Page 3 3. Parking: a. 1 on-site accessible parking space b. 11 parking spaces located across the street at the main SLO Classical Academy campus. i. Access to the site from the off-site parking location is via the Grand Avenue crosswalk as shown on Attachment 4, Project Plans, Sheet A1. 3.0 PROJECT ANALYSIS The proposed use of High School classrooms at the subject location will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of persons working or living at the site or within the vicinity as the project is required to comply with building and fire codes and will be a relatively low intensity use that is compatible with adjacent residences; students are on campus three days per week from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and work from home the other two week days. The school does not include outdoor bells nor an outdoor speaker system and sport activities will take place on the main SLO Classical Academy campus across the street to the west. 3.1 General Plan1: As stated above, the project site is a compatible and safe location for the proposed satellite classrooms. The General Plan encourages limited non-residential activities “which generally have been compatible” within residential areas such as child day care, schools, and churches (LUE Policy 2.2.13). Additionally, Land Use Element Policy 2.2.1 states: “Neighborhoods shall include a mix of uses to serve the daily needs of nearby residents, including schools, parks, churches, and convenience retail stores. Neighborhood shopping and services should be available within about one mile of all dwellings.” The project is compliant with this Land Use Element policy, however, the policy goes on to state that “when nonresidential, neighborhood-serving uses are developed, existing housing shall be preserved. If existing dwellings are removed for such uses, the development shall include replacement dwellings.” Although the five existing residential structures are being repurposed rather than removed, the project appears to not fully comply with Policy 2.2.1 since the buildings will no longer be available for housing and the applicant is not proposing any replacement dwellings. Staff’s recommendation to deny the project is due to the project’s apparent inconsistency with policy 2.2.1. 3.2 Alternative 1: The proposed project rehabilitates and reuses existing, somewhat dilapidated, vacant residential structures; which the applicant’s architect has indicated are substandard on the interior. The scope of this project does not prevent the conversion of these units back to residences in the future, nor does it prevent the redevelopment of this site into new residential homes at a later date. As stated above, the satellite classrooms/characteristics of the project are compatible with the vicinity and are not detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of persons at the site or vicinity. The Planning Commission may choose to adopt Alternative 1 which approves the project subject to conditions of approval. Attachment 2 includes a draft resolution of approval for the subject project. Note: The General Plan Housing Element indicates that the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation is 1,144 dwelling units during the 2014-2019 Housing Element planning period and the City has sufficient residentially zoned land to accommodate construction of 3,477 dwelling units. The project does not preclude the City from meeting this allocation. Furthermore in 2014, 115 1 The project was deemed complete prior to the adoption of the new Land Use, Circulation, and Housing Elements; however, the referenced policies are substantially similar in the updated elements. PC2 - 3 U 141-14 (110, 120, 130, 140 Grand Avenue) Page 4 residential units were constructed/finaled (the highest number since 2007) and to date (January/February 2015) the Building Department has issued permits for construction of ~109 residential units and another ~98 dwelling units are in construction permit application. Approximately 1,300 residential units are in the planning pipeline currently, including development in the expansion areas (Margarita and Orcutt Areas). 4.0 OTHER DEPARTMENT COMMENTS The project has been reviewed by other departments and the project was revised to address Building and Fire Code requirements. Comments (conditions/code requirements) from reviewing departments have been incorporated into the resolution for Alternative 1 should the Planning Commission decide to approve the project. 5.0 ALTERNATIVES 1. Approve the project based on findings of consistency with the General Plan. Attachment 2 includes a draft approval resolution should the Planning Commission decide to approve the project. 2. Continue the project with direction to the applicant and staff on pertinent issues. 6.0 ATTACHMENTS 1. Draft Resolution (Denial) 2. Draft Resolution (Approval) 3. Vicinity Map 4. Project Plans 5.

PC2 - 7 Planning Commission Resolution No. XXXX-15 Attachment 2 U 141-14 (110, 120, 130, 140 Grand Ave) Page 2 6. That the proposed Project does not preclude the City from meeting its Regional Housing Needs Allocation for the 2014-2019 planning period since ample residentially zoned land is available to accommodate construction of approximately 3,477 dwelling units. 7. That off-site parking is appropriate at the subject location because the off-site parking location is within 300-feet of the subject location, is not separated by any feature that would make pedestrian access inconvenient or hazardous, is on a site with the main campus associated with the proposed satellite classrooms, and has sufficient parking for existing uses and the proposed use. Section 2. Environmental Review. The project is categorically exempt from environmental review under Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) of the CEQA Guidelines because the project is within City limits, consistent with applicable City policy, surrounded by urban uses, and on a project site less than 5 acres in size served by required utilities and public services.

Teachers let students out of their classes at the appropriate times. Students who are not in a class during a school hour are either not on campus or using that time for studying. We also do not have a sound system. The population is small enough that we gather together for meetings or discussions. Outdoor activities will generally be meetings, classes that periodically use the backyard space, lunchtime and breaks. Because there is not much space, physical activities are limited and we anticipate providing the students with some things like a ping pong table. Any athletics we offer are after school and not on our campus. Practices are on the larger campus across the street, rented gym or a park. Attachment 5 PC2 - 21
