Subject: Corrections to the Resolutions for Item #1 - PC hearing 2-10-16
Dear Commissioners -
Attached are corrected resolutions for Item #1 (Airport Area Specific Plan & 855 Aerovista
Place) on tomorrow's Planning Commission Meeting. The resolutions have been corrected to
state that the "Planning Commission does hereby recommend that the City Council approve..."
Also on Attachment 1, Exhibit B (Table 4.3) the amendment should read D3,9 and not D1,9.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding these corrections. I will also note in my
presentation for the record that the resolutions require the above mentioned corrections.
Thank you,
Rachel Cohen

RESOLUTION NO. PC-XXXX-16
A RESOLUTION OF THE SAN LUIS OBISPO PLANNING COMMISSION
RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO
TITLE 17 (ZONING REGULATIONS) AND THE AIRPORT AREA SPECIFIC PLAN
TO ALLOW NIGHT CLUB LAND USE WITHIN THE BUSINESS PARK (B -P) ZONE,
EXEMPT FROM ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
(CODE -1316-2015)
WHEREAS, the Airport Land Use Commission of the County of San Luis Obispo
conducted a public hearing in Board of Supervisors Chambers, County Government Center, 1055
Monterey Street, Room D170, San Luis Obispo, California, on December 16, 2015, and
recommended approval of amendments to the Municipal Code and the Airport Area Specific
Plan; and
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
February 10, 2016, for the purpose of considering application CODE -1316-2015; and
WHEREAS, notices of said public hearing were made at the time and in the manner
required by law; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has duly considered all evidence, including the
testimony of the applicant, interested parties, and the evaluation and recommendations by staff,
presented at said hearing.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
San Luis Obispo as follows:
Section 1. Findings. Based upon all the evidence, the Commission makes the following
findings:
1. The proposed amendment will not significantly alter the character of the City or cause
significant health, safety or welfare concerns, since the amendments are consistent with the
General Plan and directly implement City goals and policies.
2. Under the proposed amendment, night club uses in the BP zone of the Airport Area
Specific Plan will require a use permit to address parking, neighborhood compatibility and
security issues.
3. As conditioned, the proposed use is consistent with the Airport Land Use Plan.
Section 2. Environmental Review. The project is exempt from environmental review per
CEQA Guidelines under the General Rule (Section 15061(b)(3)). The Airport Specific Plan
amendment included in this ordinance is summarized below which concludes that it can be seen
with certainty that proposed amendments to the Municipal Code could not have a significant
effect on the environment:
ATTACHMENT 1
Modification to Zoning Regulations Table 9, Uses Allowed by Zone, and Airport Area
Specific Plan Table 4.3, Allowed Uses which allow Night Club uses in an additional zone
including the B -P zone will not have a significant effect on the environment because no changes
to underlying Specific Plan or Zoning Regulations including parking requirements, setbacks,
coverage, floor area ratio, density, etc. are proposed. Additionally the use complies with the
Airport Land Use Plan. The amendment has no effect on the physical environment and therefore
could not have a significant effect on the environment. Proposed night club uses shall be subject
to use permit review and approval.
Section 3. Action. The Planning Commission does hereby recommend that the Citv
Council approve Title 17 (Zoning Regulations) and the Airport Area Specific Plan Amendment
CODE -1316-2015 subject to the following conditions:
The applicant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City and/or its agents, officers
and employees from any claim, action or proceeding against the City and/or its agents,
officers or employees to attack, set aside, void or annul, the approval by the City of this
project, and all actions relating thereto, including but not limited to environmental review
("Indemnified Claims"). The City shall promptly notify the applicant of any Indemnified
Claim upon being presented with the Indemnified Claim and City shall fully cooperate in
the defense against an Indemnified Claim."
2. Future development that includes "night club" uses proposed within the Business Park
Zone of the Airport Area Specific Plan shall meet the standards and requirements of the
Airport Land Use Plan, and shall be referred to the Airport Land Use Commission for a
determination of consistency with the Airport Land Use Plan.
3. All tall structures shall be reviewed by the Air Traffic Division of the FAA regional office
having jurisdiction over San Luis Obispo County to determine compliance with the
provisions of FAR Part 77. In addition, applicable construction activities must be reported
via FAA Form 7460-1 at least 30 days before proposed construction or application for
building permit.
On motion by , seconded by , and on the following
roll call vote:
AYES:
NOES:

ZOningr ReGulations mdRCh 2015
Notes to Table 9:
Ozone - All uses. A Use Permit is required for the conversion of residential structures
to non-residential uses. In order to approve a Use Permit, the Director shall first find
that:
a. The location, orientation, height, and mass of new structures will not significantly
affect privacy in nearby residential areas; and
b. The project location or access arrangements will not significantly direct traffic to
local streets in nearby residential areas; and
c. The project includes landscaping and yards that adequately separate parking and
pedestrian circulation areas from sites in nearby residential areas.
2. R-1 zone - Multiple dwellings. Except for condominiums, the construction of more
than one dwelling on a parcel in the R-1 zone requires Administrative Use Permit
approval. R-1 density standards apply.
C -N zone - Limitations on floor area. A general retail use in the C -N zone shall not
exceed a gross floor area of 2,000 square feet for each establishment, or a combined
floor area of all general retail establishments within a shopping center of 25 percent of
the total floor area in a shopping center with a gross floor area of 15,000 square feet or
more; and shall not exceed 50 percent of the total floor area in a shopping center with a
gross floor area of less than 15,000 square feet. The Administrative Use Permit may
provide for exceptions to the floor area limitations above. For general retail uses with a
floor area greater than 2,000 square feet on a parcel not located within a shopping
center, an Administrative Use Permit shall be required to insure consistency with
policies of the General Plan Land Use Element and compatibility with surrounding
uses.
4. C -S and M zones - Required findings for offices. The approval of an office facility in
the C -S or M zone shall require that the review authority first find that:
a. The project will be compatible with existing and allowed land uses in the area;
b. The project location or access arrangements will not significantly direct traffic to
use local or collector streets in residential zones;
c. The project will provide adequate mitigation to address potential impacts related to
noise, light and glare, and loss of privacy, among others, imposed by commercial
activities on nearby residential areas, by using methods such as setbacks,
landscaping, berming and fencing;
d. The project will not preclude industrial or service commercial uses in areas
especially suited for these uses when compared with offices; and
e. The project will not create a shortage of C -S- or M -zoned land available for service
commercial or industrial development
5. C-R zone - Auto sound system installation. Auto sound installation services may be
approved only as an accessory use to the retail sales of auto sound systems on the
same site. Use Permit review shall consider parking space displacement, noise from
the operation, and the appearance and visibility of the installation area.
6. Parking as a principal use. Use Permit approval may include deviations to otherwise
applicable setback requirements and building height limits. A multi-level parking facility
shall require the approval of a Use Permit by the Planning Commission.
7. Religious facilities.

zonlnc, 1zeclutations
a. C -S zone requirements. Use Permit review shall consider that the C -S zone is
primarily intended to accommodate uses not generally suited to other commercial
zones because of noise, truck traffic, visual impacts and similar factors. A Use
Permit may be approved only when the religious facility will not likely cause
unreasonable compatibility problems with existing or likely future service
commercial uses in the vicinity. Use Permit conditions may include measures to
mitigate incompatibility.
b. C -T and M zone requirements. A religious facility use may be allowed only inside
an existing building.
8. PF zone - Theaters. Only non-profit theaters are permitted
9. Day care centers. Allowed by right where accessory to a church or school, or where
an employer provides on-site child care to 14 or fewer children for the exclusive benefit
of employees, providing the primary use meets City parking standards.
10. Groceries, Liquor, Specialty Foods in the CN Zone. In the C -N zone, grocery, liquor
and specialty food stores less than 3,000 square feet are allowed. Such uses with a
gross floor area between 3,000 and 5,000 square feet are allowed with the approval of
an Administrative Use Permit. Stores between 5,000 and 10,000 square feet may be
approved by Planning Commission Use Permit. In order for a use permit to be
approved by the Hearing Officer or by the Planning Commission, the deciding body
must find that the proposed use is compatible with surrounding uses and the
surrounding neighborhood, and that the use is consistent with the purpose and intent of
the Neighborhood Commercial designation as discussed in the General Plan.
11. In order to approve a Medical Service use in the C -S or BP zones, the Hearing Officer
must make the following findings:
a) The proposed medical service is compatible with surrounding land uses.
b) The proposed medical service is located along a street designated as an arterial
or commercial collector in the Circulation Element and has convenient access to
public transportation.
c) The proposed medical service will not significantly increase traffic or create
parking impacts in residential neighborhoods.
d) The proposed medical service is consistent with the Airport Land Use Plan.
e) The project will not preclude service commercial uses in areas especially suited
for these uses when compared with medical services.
f) The project site can accommodate the parking requirements of the proposed
medical service and will not result in other lease spaces being under-utilized
because of a lack of available parking.
12. C -S zone - Required findings for Indoor Commercial Recreational Facilities.
Commercial indoor recreational uses in the C -S zone shall not include less than
10,000 square feet gross floor area per establishment. The approval of an indoor
commercial recreational facility in the C -S zone shall require that the review authority
first find that:
a) The proposed use will serve the community, in whole or in significant part, and
the nature of the use requires a larger size in order to function;

b) The project will be compatible with existing and allowed land uses in the area;
c) The project location or access arrangements will not significantly direct traffic to
use local or collector streets in residential zones;
d) The project will not preclude industrial or service commercial uses in areas
especially suited for these uses when compared with recreational facilities; and
e) The project will not create a shortage of C -S -zoned land available for service
commercial development.
13. Safe Parking. Safe parking is only allowed in the R-1, R-2, R-3 and R-4 zones when
accessory to a public assembly use, such as a club, lodge, private meeting hall or
religious facility. Safe parking is prohibited as a primary use in the R-1, R-2, R-3 or R-4
zones and in all applicable zoning districts on properties that contain residential uses as
the primary use.
14. Night club use in the B -P zone. Night clubs shall be allowed only in the B -P zone of the

RESOLUTION NO. PC-XXXX-16
A RESOLUTION OF THE SAN LUIS OBISPO PLANNING COMMISSION
RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL OF A REQUEST TO
ALLOW A NIGHT CLUB AND OFF-SITE PARKING IN THE BUSINESS PARK ZONE,
WITH A CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION FROM ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
(855 AEROVISTA PLACE, CODE -1316-2015)
WHEREAS, the Airport Land Use Commission of the County of San Luis Obispo
conducted a public hearing in Board of Supervisors Chambers, County Government Center, 1055
Monterey Street, Room D170, San Luis Obispo, California, on December 16, 2015, and
recommended approval of the Night Club use permit at 855 Aerovista within the Airport Area
Specific Plan; and
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
January 27, 2016, for the purpose of considering application CODE -1316-2015; and
WHEREAS, notices of said public hearing were made at the time and in the manner
required by law; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has duly considered all evidence, including the
testimony of the applicant, interested parties, and the evaluation and recommendations by staff,
presented at said hearing.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
San Luis Obispo as follows:
Section 1. Findings. Based upon all the evidence, the Commission makes the following
findings:
Night club
As conditioned, the use will not harm the general health, safety, and welfare of people
living or working in the vicinity because conditions on the Use Permit approval will
minimize noise impacts, impacts to police resources, and there are no nearby residential
uses.
2. Locating a live indoor/outdoor entertainment use outside of the downtown is appropriate
because currently no sites exist downtown that would allow for live indoor/outdoor
entertainment for a large number of people without impacting other uses. The location of a
night club within the business park zone, near the airport, is appropriate because the use is
not impacted by airport noise and is not located near residential uses.
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC-XXXX-16
CODE -1316-2015 (855 Aerovista Place)
Page 2
As conditioned, the proposed project is consistent with Section 4.2.1 of the Airport Area
Specific Plan because the proposed use is supportive of the primary activity and part of the
promotion of the SLO Brew Production Facility.
4. As conditioned, the project is consistent with the Airport Land Use Plan.
The property owner has agreed to conditions of approval that place restrictions on their use
of the property to insure that nuisances and significant burdens on police resourccs do not
occur.
6. As conditioned, the proposed use is compatible with the project site and with existing and
potential uses in the vicinity which include offices, a gym, and a beer brewing facility.
Conditions of approval have been adopted to minimize potential disturbances to
neighboring properties.
Off-site Parking
7. Off-site parking is acceptable at this location because proposed off-site parking is within a
zone where the use is allowed, within 300 feet of the use, and is not separated from the use
by any feature that would make pedestrian access inconvenient or hazardous.
Off-site parking is acceptable at this location because the site on which the parking is
located is owned by the party controlling the use.
Section 2. Fnvironmental Review. The project is categorically exempt under Class 32, In -
Fill Development Projects; Section 15332 of the CEQA Guidelines, because the project is
consistent with General Plan policies for the land use designation and is consistent with the
applicable zoning designation and regulations. The project site occurs on a property of no more
than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses that has no value as habitat for
endangered, rare or threatened species as the site is located on an existing developed property.
The approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to;
• Traffic levels do not exceed thresholds established in the City's General Plan;
• Noise levels do not exceed thresholds established in the City's Noise Ordinance;
• Air quality does not exceed thresholds established by APCD Standards;
■ Water quality because the site is using an existing commercial building and the site
can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services.
Section 3. Action. The Planning Commission does hereby recommend that the City
Council approve Use Permit CODE -1316-2015 subject to the following conditions:
Planning Division
The applicant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City and/or its agents, officers
and employees from any claim, action or proceeding against the City and/or its agents,
officers or employees to attack, set aside, void or annul, the approval by the City of this
project, and all actions relating thereto, including but not limited to environmental review

recorded to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director prior to occupancy. A
minimum of 61 parking spaces shall be provided in an off-site parking location located

substantiated written complaints from any citizen, Code Enforcement Officer, or Police
Department employee, which includes information and/or evidence supporting a
conclusion that a violation of this Use Permit, or of City ordinances or regulations
applicable to the property or the operation of the business, has occurred. At the time of the
Use Permit review, to insure on-going compatibility of the uses on the project site,
conditions of approval may be added, deleted, modified, or the Use Permit may be revoked.
18. Upon a significant change to the business as identified in the applicant's project

shall be reviewed by the Community Development Director for compliance with conditions
of approval, or to determine whether a modification of the Use Permit is necessary.
19. Upon change of ownership or licensee, the use permit shall be reviewed by the Community
