CITY FILE#: GP/R/ER 64-03 CAO RECOMMENDATION Adopt Ordinance No. 1467 rezoning property at 215 Bridge Street. DISCUSSION Situation On December 7, 2004, the City Council voted 4 to 1 to introduce Ordinance No. 1467 rezoning property at 215 Bridge Street to allow the Bridge Street Planned Development. The rezoning will change the zoning map for a portion of the existing parcel at 215 Bridge Street from C/OS-5 and M, to R-2-PD, M-PD. The property above the 190-foot elevation contour will remain within the C/OS-5 zone. Ordinance No. 1467 is now ready for adoption. The new zoning designations, including the Planned Development, will become effective 30 days after its adoption. Sienificant Impacts The City Council adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration (ER 64-03) that concluded that no significant environmental impacts are anticipated with the re-zoning of the property. The project is subject to mitigation measures and a monitoring program as prescribed to TR and PD 64-03. Consequences of Not Taking the Recommended Action If the Council does not adopt the ordinance, the zoning designations of the property would remain as is, until alternative zoning designations are approved. Failure to act will not allow the Bridge Street Planned Development to move forward. Attachments: 1. Vicinity Map 2.

Findings. The City Council makes the following findings: 1. The project is consistent with the General Plan text policies, and implements Housing Element goals by allowing expansion of residential land uses. 2. The project complies with all applicable provisions of these Zoning Regulations other than those modified by the PD rezoning. 3. The approved modifications to the development standards of these Zoning Regulations are necessary and appropriate to accommodate the superior design of the proposed project including its compatibility with adjacent land uses, its successful mitigation of environmental impacts, and its proposed affordable housing features, sustainable building concepts and proposed open space easements. 4. The project will be reviewed by the City's Architectural Review Commission for consistency with the Community Design Guidelines prior to approval. 5. All affected public facilities, services, and utilities are 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 Ordinance No. 1467(2005 Series) GP/R 64-03 Bridge Street Page 2 neighborhood, and will be 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 (as conditioned), 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. As conditioned, 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 detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the City. 9. Tandem parking is a logical parking design solution for some of the units since the tandem parking spaces will be for the exclusive use of the occupants of each unit supplying the tandem parking. 10. The project meets the mandatory Planned Development findings (Section 17.62.045) since the design of the structures will achieve a minimum of 30 percent greater energy efficiency than minimum required by California Code of Regulations Title 24; and the project will preserve, enhance, and/or create a significant natural feature with minimum area of one-half acre (the hillside with substantial serpentine rock formations and an existing blackberry bramble below the development will be protected with a conservation open space easement). SECTION 2. Action. The Council hereby recommends adoption of said Mitigated Negative Declaration and approval of the request (GP/R/TR/ER 64-03) for a Rezoning, amending the Zoning map from Manufacturing and Open Space to Medium Density Residential Planned Development and Manufacturing Planned Development for a portion of the property below the 190-foot contour(as identified within Exhibit A). 1. The applicant shall submit a detailed development agreement that confirms the design of the project as reviewed by Community Development Staff with the application concept. The agreement shall outline the sustainable components of the project, the design and placement of the buildings and associated improvements. 2. The sustainable site and building features are required features of the Planned Development, and amendments to the development features including, but not limited to a substantial change to the site plan or sustainable design features, shall require an amendment to the Planned Development to be approved by the Planning Commission and City Council.

Within 6 months of City Council approval the applicant shall prepare and submit a final development plan to the Community Development Director consistent with Zoning Ordinance Chapter 17.62.060. 5. All conditions approved with TR 64-03 under separate resolution shall apply to this Rezoning Ordinance. SECTION 3. A summary of this ordinance, together with the names of Council members voting for and against, shall be published at least five (5) days prior to its final passage, in the Telegram-Tribune, a newspaper published and circulated in this City. This ordinance shall go into effect at the expiration of thirty(30) days after its final passage.

Project 4-2557. Dear George: Based on our recent site visit(January 4, 2405), soil materials have collected on and around the existing driveway that runs through the Bridge Street Project. These materials appear to be the result of erosion of a drainage Swale located adjacent to an existing residence(located southeast of the project). A drain pipe was observed at the top of the drainage swale and surface drainage from around the residence appears to be concentrated directly above the Swale. This concentrated flow resulted in erosion of the fill and native soils in the swale and resulting in accumulation below. We appreciate the opportunity to have been of service. If you require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at(805)543-5493.

SLO CITY CLERK FROM: Jay Walter,P.E.—Public Works Director Robert Livick, P.E.—Supervising Civil Engineer SUBJECT: Erosion at 215 Bridge Street This memo is in response to email questions/concerns regarding the erosion at 215 Bridge Street. Photos taken on January 2, 2004 show soil erosion originating from one of the existing developed sites at 215 Bridge Street. Public Works staff has looked at the photos and visited the site., The amount of erosion is not unusual given the quantity of rainfall and its location. It appears that the majority of the erosion observed and photographed is due to the amount of water running off the existing improved padded home site down the slope and into a natural drainage swale. It also appears that much of the material being eroded is the fill that was placed to construct the garage and home. This problem could be remedied by improvements to the parking area so that the water is not concentrated as it flows off the pad and by armoring the face of the slope with either rock or a geotextile material. Additionally, as John Mandeville pointed out in his email of January 3, 2005 (attached): the project proposes to mitigate the impacts of storm water runoff at the site thorough the implementation of the gabion rock structures as shown on the preliminary grading and drainage plan. Development Review staff will insure that the project Geotechnical and Civil engineers are aware of this erosion so that any necessary refinements to the grading and drainage plan can be incorporated into the final design of the project. Staff will be available at the Council meeting to answer questions, if desired by Council. yscOUNCIL RED FILE ,2'CAO ,CACAO m ME ING AGENDA ATTORNEY fi F!RE CHIEF ,`CLERK/ORIGW DIR DA ; ITEM # _ ❑ D .�' OLICE CHF FADS �;R_C DIR - 2/UTiL DIR Page 1 of 1 6 i Ken Hampian Re: Bridge St. Final Map From: John Mandeville To: Bochum, Tim; kchampian; Livick, Robert; Walter, Jay Date: 1/3/05 1:54PM Subject: Re: Bridge St. Final Map CC: Dunsmore, Phil; George, Wendy; Hampian, Ken; Whisenand, Ron I think the basic answer is that the development will improve the impacts of storm water runoff at the site. I understand that the particular hillside in the photos is planned to be stabilized with gabion retaining walls. The minor slide that we see in the photos is not unexpected given the slope and amount/duration of rain we've had, but its not a problem for the development. The geotechnical analyses addressed this potential (hence the prescription for the gabion retaining walls). Jay or Rob may have more to say. >>> "kchampian" <kchampian@charter.net> 01/02/05 03:21PM >>> Council member Mulholland called me at home today to say that following the heavy rains, she drove to various places vulnerable to flood, including Bridge Street. At this location, she observed "extreme erosian"trailing down from a hill just below a mobile home, sending mud and water to the property to be developed below. She plans to raise this concern on Tuesday night, when the final ordinance reading will be before the Council (C-2). Later today, I drove to the location and took pictures, which are attached. Obviously, it doesn't look good. On the other hand, perhaps project mitigations are intended to resolve this kind of problem? In any case, please look into this matter and advise me on your conclusion and how we might handle this issue before the Council.
