Consequences of Not Taking the Recommended Action If the Council does not give final passage to the ordinance, the existing zoning designation on the site would remain, which would be inconsistent with the approved General Plan Amendment.

BE IT ORDAINED,by the City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo as follows: SECTION 1. Findings. 1. The proposed amendment to the Zoning Map furthers the goals of the General Plan specifically LUE 3.6.1 to have land designated for certain service uses that meet the demands of the City, and some demands of the region. 2. The proposed Rezone will not be detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of those living and working in the vicinity since the proposed changes to the City's maps will accommodate existing development of the sites at 1433 & 1445 Calle Joaquin that are compatible with other properties in the surrounding vicinity and will appropriately direct redevelopment of the site at 1443 Calle Joaquin with a compatible land use. 3. The proposed Rezone will not adversely affect the amount of area within the City set aside for Tourist Commercial uses as additional sites in the near vicinity have been added in recent years to the area to offset the demand for tourist-serving uses like restaurants and motels 4. On February 16, 2011, the San Luis Obispo County Airport Land Use Commission C12=2 ATTACHMENT Ordinance No. 1561 (2011 Series) Page 2 determined that the proposed General Plan Amendment and Rezone was consistent with the San Luis Obispo County Regional Airport Land Use Plan. 5. The project sites are subject to several criteria which clearly warrant an overlay zone to direct proposed and future development and to insure for on-going compatibility with surrounding land uses. The following circumstances wan-ant the S overlay zone: a. "A"flood zone as designated on FEMA maps. b. Creek habitat protection. c. Location within the Airport Land Use Plan Safety Zones S-2, S-1 c, and S-lb. d. Prohibit certain allowable and conditionally allowable uses at the site to eliminate future traffic impacts. e. Protect the ability of the Motel 6 to be redeveloped. 6. The City Council finds and determines that the project's Mitigated Negative Declaration adequately addresses the potential significant environmental impacts of the proposed project with inclusion of the proposed mitigation measures. SECTION 2. Action. The Zoning Regulations Map Amendment (GP/R 70-10) to modify the zoning designation of the site from Tourist-Commercial (C-T), to Service- Commercial with the "S" Special Consideration overlay (C -S-S) for the properties located at 1445, 1443 & 1433 Calle Joaquin is hereby approved as identified within Exhibit A, subject to the following conditions: 1.
