7.0 PROJECT ANALYSIS
Staff carefully evaluated the proposed project’s General Plan Amendment, Rezone, Architecture and
Use Permits in the context of General Plan goals and policies and the City’s Zoning Code, and
received feedback from the ARC and the CHC regarding consistency of the project with the
Community Design Guidelines and Historic Preservation Guidelines. Based on the project’s
contribution to and alignment with these goals, policies, and requirements, staff is recommending that
the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the project.
7.1 Consistency with the General Plan
The Land Use Element (LUE) dedicates Chapter 4 to policies regarding land use and development of
Downtown. Policy 4.1 states,
Downtown is the community’s urban center serving as the cultural, social,
entertainment, and political center of the City for its residents, as well as home for
those who live in its historic neighborhoods. The City wants its urban core to be
economically healthy, and realizes that private and public investments in the
Downtown support each other. Downtown should also provide a wide variety of
professional and government services, serving the region as well as the city. The
commercial core is a preferred location for retail uses that are suitable for pedestrian
access, off-site parking, and compact building spaces. Civic, cultural and commercial
portions of Downtown should be a major tourist destination. Downtown's visitor
appeal should be based on natural, historical, and cultural features, retail services,
entertainment and numerous and varied visitor accommodations (underlining added to
highlight project consistency).
The LUE further discusses Entertainment and Cultural Facilities located in the downtown. Policy 4.3
states, Cultural facilities, such as museums and galleries should be Downtown. Entertainment
facilities, such as nightclubs and theaters shall be in the Downtown. Additional policies regarding
Cultural Facilities state:
5.2.2. Mission Plaza Area – The City shall promote the area around the Mission Plaza for
cultural facilities (Figure 5).
5.2.3. Community Arts Support – The City shall continue to support community arts programs
through a variety of means, such as loans, grants, and help in obtaining sites.
5.2.5. Land Acquisition – The City will work with community organizations to secure land for
cultural facilities in the Downtown area.

609 Palm Street
Page 7
As proposed, the SLO Rep Theatre will be located near Mission Plaza along Monterey Street in the
Cultural Facilities Area.
Parking
Policy 4.14 states, The City shall ensure there is a diversity of parking opportunities in the Downtown.
Any major increments in parking supply should take the form of structures, located at the edges of
the commercial core, so people can walk rather than drive between points within the core. Retail uses
outside the core, and professional office developments, may have on-site parking for customers and
clients. The proposed parking structure is consistent with fulfilling this policy.
Circulation Element, Policy 13.2.4. (Public Parking Structures) states the City shall only approve
construction of additional public parking structures after considering the findings and results of a
parking supply and demand study. Early in the Downtown parking discussion, a parking study was
completed that estimated that the City would have an increased parking demand of 250-500 spaces
every 5 years. The Palm Nipomo Parking Structure was initially envisioned to accommodate
approximately 450 spaces for 10 years of growth1. As the project has been refined, the total number
of actual spaces is now 404. As proposed, the new parking structure is consistent with the policies
for providing parking within the Downtown.
1 919 Palm Street Parking Structure contains 242 parking spaces and was built to accommodate the loss of the Court Street
surface parking lot and the Chinatown surface parking lot and was not designed for future growth of the Downtown.

7.2 Consistency with the Downtown Concept Plan
The Downtown concept Plan was adopted in July 2017. The Downtown Concept Plan is the
community’s vision for how downtown San Luis Obispo should be developed over the next 25 years
and is to be used as a guidance for development projects and for public improvements downtown .
The proposed project is described in this Plan within “Block 10;” A new parking structure on the
corner of Palm and Nipomo Streets is envisioned to include office mixed use along Nipomo Street,
the Theatre relocated along Monterey Street,
and public use on a portion of the rooftop.
Additionally, the Concept Plan describes the
Central Downtown to include an expanded,
vibrant, and art-filled Cultural District, the
focus of which is along Monterey Street
between Nipomo and Chorro Streets (blocks
10, 11, and 19). Visitors arriving in cars can
park in the new parking structure at Palm and
Nipomo Streets, then walk to the theater,
Children’s Museum, expanded History Center,
Museum of Art, Mission San Luis Obispo de
Tolosa, and Mission Plaza in a short two-block
stretch (Blocks 11 and 19).
7.3 Consistency with the Zoning Regulations
7.3.1 SLO Rep Theatre
The SLO Rep Theatre proposal complies with the lot coverage, floor area ratios, and building
height requirements for the Downtown Commercial zone with a Historic District overlay (see
Section 6.2.1 Project Statistics above). The performing arts facility use requires a Minor Use
Permit. The SLO Rep Theatre mission is to strengthen theatre’s cultural influence and
enriches the Central Coast by producing professional theatre, nurturing artists and providing
theatre education for children and adults. This is consistent with the definition in the Zoning
Regulations that states Theaters are Facilities for indoor display of films, motion pictures, or
dramatic, musical, or live performances. This classification may include incidental food and
beverage services to patrons.
The SLO Rep Theatre has administrative office hours, and public hours (performances).
Administrative office hours are Tuesday-Saturday, 8:00 AM-6:00 PM and Public Hours are
Wednesday - Friday: 5:30 PM - 10:00 PM and Saturday-Sunday: 12:00 PM - 10:00 PM.
Services and activities that occur on the site include: administrative office work; theatre
rehearsals; theatre performances; youth classes/camps; adult classes/camps; and internal and
outside meetings and events. The new space will have 7 full-time and 17 part-time employees.
With the two theater spaces in the new venue, there is the potential for two performances
happening simultaneously thus there is a proposed minimum of 50 attendees and a maximum
of 300 attendees. As proposed, the theatre is consistent with the Zoning Regulations.
The project includes a retaining wall and six-foot-tall fence with a maximum combined height
of 9 feet. Per Zoning Regulations section 17.70.070(F)3 - Where fences are located on
retaining walls within interior side or rear setbacks, fences shall not exceed six feet as
Figure 5: Snapshot of Block 10 of the Downtown Concept Plan
Packet Page 12

measured from the uphill side if erected or replaced on top of the retaining walls, and the
combined fence and retaining wall height shall not exceed nine feet from the lower side. As
proposed, the project’s fence is consistent with code. Staff recommends that the Planning
Commission find the proposed project description consistent with the Zoning Regulations.
7.3.2 Parking Structure
Per Table 2.1, Parking Facilities require a Conditional Use Permit for a parking structure
within the C-D zone. The Zoning Regulations further state in Section 17.86.200 (Parking as a
Primary Use), Where parking as a primary use is permitted in compliance with Table 2-1:
Uses Allowed by Zone … discretionary permit approval may include deviations from
otherwise applicable development standards. The Palm Nipomo Parking Structure is
requesting deviations from the F.A.R. requirements of the Downtown Commercial zone. The
Parking Structure has a 4.1 F.A.R. and the Zoning Regulations states the maximum F.A.R. of
3.0 for the C-D zone. These deviations are necessary to meet the project goal of maximizing
the parking on the site and meeting as close as possible the goal of 450 parking spaces.
The parking structure will be accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Currently the first
60 minutes are free and $1.25/hour or fraction thereof. Parking rates for the structure will
apply as follows:
8:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday through Wednesday
8:00 AM to 11:00 PM Thursday through Saturday
1:00 PM to 7:00 PM Sunday
The parking structure will also operate DROP (Downtown Residential Overnight Parking
Program) for those residents who live Downtown and include short-term and long-term
bicycle parking. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission find the proposed project
description and deviation to the F.A.R. consistent with the Zoning Regulations.
7.4 Architectural Review Commission Recommendation
The ARC recommended that the Planning Commission find the Parking Structure and the SLO Rep
Theatre architectural designs consistent with the Community Design Guidelines with specific
direction to the SLO Rep Theatre applicant. The applicant’s response to ARC direction is discussed
below.
ARC Direction: Review the balance and proportion of the wall cladding - specifically, reduce the
variegated terracotta facade at on the exterior of the black box theatre and at the upper portion of
the walls of the main theatre projecting above the roof deck level (approximately at the 218.45 -foot
elevation and above), and soften the contrast of the terracotta.

Page 10
Response: The applicant has provided revised façade improvements based on the ARC’s direction.
Figure 6 shows the original façade colors and materials. The applicant has provided a rendering that
follows the ARC’s direction very strictly; the white tile has been replaced with a color that is darker
and provides less contrast with the other tile colors. The upper levels that are set back and the black
box theater have all been given a solid color. Strict compliance with ARC direction leaves the black
box theater façade very plain and with minimal articulation.

The applicant also provided renderings that are a compromise between the ARC direction and the
original façade design. Figure 8 replaces the white terra cotta tile and uses a smooth stucco finish on
a portion of the upper floor setback, but instead of a random color combination of terra cotta tiles, the
exterior tiles of the black box theater and the upper floor setback are given a specific design layout.
Staff finds that the exterior façade of Figure 8 satisfies ARC’s direction, and is consistent with the
Community Design Guidelines (CDG) for Downtown development (Chapter 4.2, Section C.5) that
discusses that wall surfaces should be varied and interesting. Staff recommends the Planning
Commission find the revised design consistent with ARC direction and the CDG and recommend the
City Council approve the architectural design of the SLO Rep Theatre.
7.5 Cultural Heritage Committee Recommendation
The CHC provided three recommendations regarding the proposed project. These recommendations
are listed below.
1. Parking Structure - Recommended that the Planning Commission find the Parking Structure
architectural designs compatible with the Downtown Historic District.
2. Heyd Adobe - Recommend continuance of the Heyd Adobe component of the project to a
date uncertain, having found that the destruction of the Hyde Adobe, an element of the project
that makes it incompatible with the historic preservation guidelines and goals of the City, and
continue the item directing city staff and the applicant to present feasible options for leaving
the adobe in the current location, moving it to another location on the same site or to another
site altogether.
3. SLO Rep Theatre - Recommended continuance of the SLO Rep Theater component of the
project to a date uncertain, with direction that the applicant present more cohesive coloring
and materials treatment of the exterior fabric, a less busy and variegated design such that it’s
compatible with the immediately surrounding historic buildings of the downtown historic
district.

Staff Discussion: The CHC recommended a continuance of the Heyd Adobe component of the project
and recommended that the project evaluate within its design the preservation of the Heyd Adobe in
situ (current location), relocation on site, or moving the structure to another site. When certifying the
Final EIR, the City Council, was provided information concerning impacts to the historic structures
on site and all alternatives, which included a discussion of retaining the Heyd Adobe and other
Contributing Historic Resources. The City Council’s decision to certify the Final EIR, including
Findings of Overriding Considerations, supported the determination that preserving the historic
properties on site does not satisfy project objectives of establishing a performing arts venue (SLO
Rep Theatre) and the development of a new parking structure.
The CHC’s purview or scope of review for the project, was to provide a recommendation on the
proposed project’s consistency with development in the vicinity within the Downtown Historic
District. Therefore, it was not within the CHC’s purview to recommend a continuance of the project
with direction to explore retaining the Heyd Adobe onsite by redesigning the project or to evaluate
relocation alternatives.
The CHC also provided feedback regarding the design of the SLO Rep Theatre (item #3 above). Staff
requested the CHC provide specific direction on what needed to be changed to be compatible with
the Downtown Historic District, but no specifics were given. The direction discusses revising the
exterior materials and color variation; very similar to the direction provided by the ARC. As discussed
in Section 7.4 above, the applicant has made changes to the exterior design to provide a more cohesive
façade treatment that is less busy and variegated.
The CDG and the Historic Preservation Program Guidelines (HPPG) overlap in their review criteria
for the Historic District and characteristics that make the district unique (Section 5.2.2). HPPG
Section 3.2.1 discusses that new structures within a Historic District shall be designed to be
architecturally compatible with the district’s prevailing historic character. Based on the changes made
by the applicant, staff recommends that the PC recommend that the City Council approve the revised
design and find it compatible with the Downtown Historic District and consistent with HPPG Sections
3.2.1 and 5.2.2.
8.0 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
On July 17, 2018, the City Council certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR State
Clearinghouse Number 2017051011), adopted a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program,
adopted the following CEQA Findings and Mitigation Measures related to the Palm Nipomo Parking
Structure Project, and made a Statement of Overriding Considerations (Attachment 7). The adopted
FEIR identified that the project will result in significant and unavoidable impacts to: 1) Aesthetics –
The scale and massing of the parking structure interrupting the transition from the Dana Street
grouping of historic resources from the remainder of the Downtown Historic District to the east; 2)
Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources – Removal of two historic resources from the project site; and
3)Noise – Short-term construction noise. The FEIR also found that there would be significant impacts
that can be mitigated to less than significant in the categories of aesthetics, cultural and tribal cultural
resources, transportation, air quality, biological resources, geology and soils, and hazardous materials.
Some impacts related to aesthetics, cultural resources, noise, and transportation were found to be less
than significant.

The project is proposed to remain the same as the project assessed in the adopted FEIR; however the
project now proposes to change the land use designation from Public to Downtown Commercial and
the zoning from Public Facility with a Historic Overlay (PF-H) to Downtown Commercial with a
Historic Overlay (C-D-H) to allow for the uses as they are described and analyzed in the FEIR. No
physical changes to the project or proposed uses are proposed to occur which were evaluated
previously in the certified FEIR. The change in the land use designation necessitated preparation of
an Addendum (Attachment 6) to the certified FEIR to address the project changes, per State CEQA
Guidelines Section 15162. The Addendum includes an updated project description, and incorporates
the additional analysis for inclusion in the environmental record. The updated analysis does not
materially change the findings and conclusions of the FEIR, making a Subsequent EIR unnecessary
pursuant to Section 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
9.0 OTHER DEPARTMENT COMMENTS
All City Departments have reviewed the project and have provided comments that are incorporated
into the recommended resolution as conditions of approval.
10.0 ALTERNATIVES
10.1 Recommend the Council deny the project. An action denying the application should include
findings that cite the basis for denial and should reference inconsistency with the General Plan,
Community Design Guidelines, Historic Preservation Program Guidelines, Zoning Regulations or
other policy documents.
10.2 Continue the item. An action to continue the item should include a detailed list of additional
information or analysis required to make a recommendation on the project. Staff does not recommend
this alternative since the City Council will be reviewing this project at their November 5, 2019 regular
meeting. A recommendation from the Planning Commission is necessary for this to occur.

The site contains an existing City owned surface parking lot and fi ve residential structures. The future Monterey Place project is proposed across Monterey Streetfrom the site and will link at a proposed mid-block crosswalk and connect pedestrians into the downtown core. The overall project site consists of three separate proposed buildings (Parking Structure, SLO Repertory Theatre, and offi ce or retail building) and intersection and streetscape enhancements. Each of the proposed buildings will be permitted separately and constructed in phases. This submittal is for the Parking Structure and right-of-way improvements only. The Theatre and offi ce or retail building are shown graphically for reference only, and are not a part of this Parking Structure project.The Parking Structure and SLO Repertory Theatre have been working together to design a cohesive and unifi ed project, and these two buildings will be submitted together for coordination of the overall project, but permitted separately. The offi ce or retail building is a future submittal. TITLE SHEETSTREETSCAPE ENHANCEMENTSIntersection enhancements are proposed on Nipomo Street at Monterey and adjacent right-of-way will be improved as these buildings are constructed with widened sidewalks, decorative paving, benches, bike racks, and new landscaping. PARKING STRUCTUREThe City of San Luis Obispo is proposing to construct public parking structure with 404 vehicle spaces. There will be one entry/exit located off Palm Street and one on Nipomo Street.Vehicular and pedestrian entrances are separated and 32 bike racks are provided at the Nipomo entrance. The garage is anticipated to be open 24 hours a day and will not require any permanent employees. The parking structure is to be a Type 2B open construction. There will be a 2hr fi re separation between the parking structure and the SLO Repertory Theatre.REPERTORY THEATREThe San Luis Obispo Repertory Theatre would be relocated to the site, fronting Monterey Street and adjacent to the parking structure. The Theatre is anticipated to be constructed closely following the Parking Garage and permitted separately.OFFICE, RETAIL OR RESIDENTIALA two or three story building with approxrimately 4,600 to 6,900 square feet of offi ce, retail, or residential space is proposed at the corner of Palm and Nipomo Streets. This will be a standalone structure and is anticipated to be constructed in the second phase of the overall project, and it will be permitted separately.A1.1 NORTH ELEVATION (PALM STREET)A1.2 WEST ELEVATION (NIPOMO STREET)A1.3 SOUTH ELEVATION (NIPOMO PLAZA)A1.4 EAST ELEVATION (ADJACENT PROPERTIES) A1.5 WEST ELEVATION (NIPOMO STREET) WITH SLO REPA1.6 EXTERIOR COLORS & MATERIALSC1 PRELIMINARY GRADING & DRAINAGE C2 PRELIMINARY UTILITY PLANC3 STORMWATER CONTROL PLANA2.1 PLAZA FROM MONTEREYA2.2 PLAZA FROM MONTEREYA2.3 VIEW FROM NIPOMOA2.4 VIEW FROM NIPOMO & MONTEREYA2.5 VIEW FROM NIPOMO & MONTEREYA2.6 VIEW FROM NIPOMO & PALMCHILDREN’SMUSEUMMISSIONPREP”COLLEGEPROJECT OWNER CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPOPROJECT TEAMWATRY DESIGN INC.

THE CITY SHALL ENSURE THERE IS A DIVERSITY OF PARKING OPPORTUNITIES IN THE DOWNTOWN. ANY MAJOR INCREMENTS IN PARKING SUPPLY SHOULD TAKE THE FORM OF STRUCTURES, LOCATED AT THE EDGES OF THE COMMERCIAL CORE, SO PEOPLE WILL WALK RATHER THAN DRIVE BETWEEN POINTS WITHIN THE CORE. RETAIL USES OUTSIDE THE CORE, AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICE DEVELOPMENTS, MAY HAVE ON-SITE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS AND CLIENTS. IN ADDITION, THE PROPOSED PARKING STRUCTURE IS CONSISTENT WITH CIRCULATION ELEMENT POLICY 13.2.4 WHICH STATES THAT “THE CITY SHALL ONLY APPROVE CONSTRUCTION OF ADDITIONAL PARKING STRUCTURES AFTER CONSIDERING THE FINDINGS AND RESULTS OF A PARKING SUPPLY AND DEMAND STUDY.” THE REQUISITE STUDY WAS COMPLETED IN MARCH 2009 AND DETERMINED THAT A DOWNTOWN STRUCTURE WOULD BE NEEDED TO MEET THE CITY’S PARKING NEEDS IN THE NEAR TERM OF 5 TO 10 YEARS.7+(352-(&7,6$/62&216,67(17:,7+7+(&21&(378$/3/$1)257+(&,7<·6&(17(5 '2:172:13/$1 7+(3/$15(&200(1'67+$79(+,&/(&21*(67,21IN THE DOWNTOWN BE MINIMIZED BY LOCATING PARKING FACILITIES AT THE CORE’S PERIPHERY ALONG KEY STREETS THAT ENTER THE CITY, WHICH IS THE CASE WITH THE PROPOSED STRUCTURE AT THE PROJECT SITE.

ADDENDUM TO THE
CERTIFIED FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
FOR THE
CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO
PALM NIPOMO PARKING STRUCTURE PROJECT
JULY 2019
A. INTROUCTION
This document is an Addendum to the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) prepared for the Palm
Nipomo Parking Structure Project (SCH# 2017051011). The EIR was certified by the City of San Luis
Obispo on July 17, 2018. The Addendum is intended to bring the existing California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) documentation as up to date as appropriate, based on minor changes to the
approved project. Because there are no new or more severe significant impacts or mitigation measures
as a result of this updated analysis, an Addendum is the appropriate CEQA document.
B. ADDENDUM REQUIREMENTS
The Addendum has been prepared in accordance with the relevant provisions of CEQA and the State
CEQA Guidelines as implemented by the City of San Luis Obispo. According to Section 15164(a) of the
State CEQA Guidelines, “The lead agency or responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a
previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described
in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred.” Section 15162(a) of the
State CEQA Guidelines states that no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for a project unless the lead
agency determines, on the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, one or more of
the following:
1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous
EIR or Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a
substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is
undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to
the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity
of previously identified significant effects; or
3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been
known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR or Negative
Declaration was adopted, shows any of the following:
A. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or
Negative Declaration;
ATTACHMENT 6
Packet Page 99
B. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the
previous EIR or Negative Declaration;
C. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be
feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but
the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
D. Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in
the previous EIR or Negative Declaration would substantially reduce one or more significant
effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation
measure or alternative.
This Addendum does not require circulation because it does not provide significant new information
that changes the certified EIR in a way that deprives the public of a meaningful opportunity to comment
upon a substantial adverse environmental effect of the project or a feasible way to mitigate or avoid
such an effect.
This Addendum includes this introduction, a description of the proposed actions addressed in the
Addendum as they relate to the original project, and an evaluation that concludes that no new or more
severe impacts would result. The City shall consider this Addendum with the certified Final EIR as part of
the approval of the amended project.
The CEQA documentation for this project, including this Addendum and certified Final EIR, is available
for review at the Community Development Office, located at 919 Palm Street, San Luis Obispo,
California. It is also available on the City’s website at https://www.slocity.org/government/department-
directory/community-development/documents-online/environmental-review-documents/-folder-1903.
C. PREVIOUS CEQA DOCUMENTATION
An EIR was prepared for the original Palm Nipomo Parking Structure Project and circulated for public
and agency review in 2018. The Final EIR was adopted with a decision to proceed with the project by the
City of San Luis Obispo on July 17, 2018. A Notice of Determination (NOD) was prepared, and there were
no legal challenges to the adequacy of the Final EIR during the 30-day statute of limitations associated
with the NOD, pursuant to CEQA (Public Resources Code Section 21167 and CEQA Guidelines Section
15094).
D. REASONS WHY AN ADDENDUM IS APPROPRIATE
Since adoption of the EIR and the decision to proceed with the project by the City of San Luis Obispo on
July 17, 2018, a change to the site’s proposed zoning and land use designation has occurred. This
document is an Addendum to the Final EIR to document the updated project description, so that the
Final EIR, with the most recent project information, may be used by the City for purposes of its
environmental review. This Addendum incorporates the additional analysis for inclusion in the
environmental record. The updated analysis does not materially change the findings and conclusions of
the Final EIR, making a Subsequent EIR unnecessary pursuant to Section 15162 of the State CEQA
Guidelines.
ATTACHMENT 6
Packet Page 100
E. UPDATED PROJECT ELEMENTS
As amended, the construction and operation of the approved above-ground, five-level parking structure,
non-profit theater, and 5,000 square feet of commercial space would continue to be developed in the
same location on the project site as the original project as described in the EIR. The discretionary actions
identified in the EIR included a General Plan amendment from Office and Medium-High Density
Residential to Public and a Zone Change from Office with a Historic Overlay (O-H) and Medium High
Density Residential (R-2) to Public Facility with a Historic Overlay (PF-H).
The City is now proposing to change the land use designation from Public to Downtown Commercial and
the zoning from Public Facility with a Historic Overlay (PF-H) to Downtown Commercial with a Historic
Overlay (C-D-H) to allow for the uses as they are described and analyzed in the EIR. No physical changes
to the project or proposed uses would occur.
F. UPDATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ANALYSIS
This section addresses the updates to the impact analysis in the EIR as a result of the project changes
described above. As described in the EIR, the Palm Nipomo Parking Structure project would result in
significant and unavoidable impacts with respect to alteration of visual character, demolition of historic
resources, and construction noise. All other impacts were determined to be less than significant with
mitigation or less than significant/no impact.
The proposal to change the land use designation to Downtown Commercial and zoning of the site to
Downtown Commercial with a Historic Overlay (C-D-H) would not result in any physical or operational
changes to the project. Construction and operation of the project on the site would continue to operate
as analyzed in the EIR. The Public Facility (PF) zone, which was previously proposed for the project, does
not fully comply with the specific commercial uses, setbacks, and heights for the approved project
evaluated in the EIR. With the proposed land use designation and zoning change, the commercial space
and non-profit theater would continue to be developed to a height of 41 to 43 feet and the maximum
height of the parking structure would continue to be 50 feet. The proposed zone change to Downtown
Commercial with Historic Overlay (C-D-H) would allow the development of buildings on the site to a
maximum height of 50 feet, thus reducing the requirement of a Planning Commission Use Permit to
allow deviations from the Public Facility zone. With the proposed land use designation and zoning
change, the project would continue to be developed with an approximately 200 x 200 square foot floor
area and 10 foot setback from the eastern project boundary. Proposed setbacks would not change from
what was previously evaluated in the EIR. The proposed Downtown Commercial zone does not have
setback requirements, thus reducing the requirement of a Use Permit to allow setback deviations from
the Public Facility zone. As previously analyzed and concluded, the proposed project would be
substantially taller and wider than the other surrounding development, altering the surrounding visual
character, resulting in a significant and unavoidable impact.
The change in zoning and land use designation would not alter any of the impacts as compared to the
approved project covered in the EIR and would not result in new or significantly increased
ATTACHMENT 6
Packet Page 101
environmental impacts with respect to cultural resources, noise, and traffic. The change in zoning and
land use designations would not alter or change the existing historic resources on-site, would not result
in changes to vehicle trip generation, construction or operational noise levels, or degrade levels of
service on adjacent roadways and intersections, beyond what was previously analyzed in the EIR.
G. DETERMINATION
In accordance with Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines, the City of San Luis Obispo has
determined that this Addendum to the certified Final EIR is necessary to document changes that have
occurred regarding the proposed zoning and land use for the project site since the Final EIR was
originally certified. The City has reviewed and considered the information contained in this Addendum
and finds that no new or more severe environmental impacts would occur as a result of the project
changes. Accordingly, the preparation of subsequent CEQA analysis that would require public
circulation is not necessary.

Biolo~ical Resources Mitigation
BI0-1. Nesting Bird Protection. To avoid disturbance of nesting and special-status birds, activities
related to the project, including, but not limited to, vegetation removal, ground disturbance, and
construction and demolition shall occur outside of the bird breeding season (typically February
through August in the project region). If construction must begin within the breeding season, then a
pre-construction nesting bird survey shall be conducted no more than 3 days prior to initiation of
ground disturbance and vegetation removal activities. The nesting bird pre-construction survey shall
be conducted within the Project Boundary, including a 300-foot buffer (500-foot for raptors), on foot,
and within inaccessible areas (i .e., private lands) afar using binoculars to the extent practical. The
survey shall be conducted by a biologist familiar with the identification of avian species known to
occur in the area. If nests are found, an avoidance buffer (which is dependent upon the species, the
proposed work activity, and existing disturbances associated with land uses outside of the site) shall
be determined and demarcated by the biologist with bright orange construction fencing, flagging,
construction lathe, or other means to mark the boundary. All construction personnel shall be notified
as to the existence of the buff er zone and to avoid entering the buffer zone during the nesting season.
No ground-disturbing activities shall occur within this buffer until the avian biologist has confirmed
that breeding/nesting is complete and the young have fledged the nest. Encroachment into the buffer
shall occur only at the discretion of the qualified biologist.
Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources
CR-1. Historical Building Documentation Packages. Impacts to historical resources shall be
minimized through the preparation of archival historic building documentation packages for both 610
and 614 Monterey Street. Prior to issuance of demolition permits, the City of San Luis Obispo shall
ensure that documentation of both properties is completed in the form of a Historic American
Building Survey (HABS)-Like documentation that shall comply with the Secretary of the Interior's
Standards for Architectural and Engineering Documentation (NPS 1990). The documentation shall
generally follow the HABS Level III requirements and include high-quality digital photographic
recordation of the buildings and their overall setting, detailed historic narrative report, and
compilation of historic research. The documentation shall be completed by a qualified architectural
historian or historian who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards
for History and/or Architectural History (NPS 1983). Individual archival documentation packages
shall be completed for both properties and offered as donated material to the San Luis Obispo Library
and the History Center of San Luis Obispo County, where it would be available to local researchers.
Completion of this mitigation measure shall be monitored and enforced by the lead agency.
CR-2(a). Retain a Qualified Principal Investigator. A qualified principal investigator, defined as an
R 10923
ATTACHMENT 7
Packet Page 106
Resolution No. 10923 (2018 Series) Page 5
archaeologist who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for professional archaeology
(hereafter qualified archaeologist), shall be retained to carry out all mitigation measures related to
archaeological resources.
CR-2(b ). City of San Luis Obispo Consolidated Approach for Archaeological Investigations.
Mitigation of archaeological resources within the project area shall follow the Consolidated
Approach as outlined in the City of San Luis Obispo Archaeological Resource Preservation Program
Guidelines. The Consolidated Approach shall include ( 1) the preparation of a Research Design and
Mitigation Plan prepared by the qualified archaeologist and submitted for written approval to the
City's Community Development Director (Director), which shall include but not be limited to the
research design, laboratory and field methods, public interpretation, and location of curation; (2)
monitoring of demolition and clearing of pavement within the project area; (3) fieldwork after the
removal of pavement consisting of a Phase I inventory, Phase 2 Testing and Evaluation, and Phase 3
Data Recovery aimed at locating archaeological remains, evaluating their significance and integrity,
and mitigating impacts through data recovery excavation; ( 4) the completion of special studies, such
as faunal analysis, if appropriate, and the curation ofrecovered artifacts; and (5) the completion of a
technical report documenting the results of the consolidated approach prepared in accordance with
current professional standards and submitted to the Director.
CR-2(c). Archaeological Monitoring. An archaeological monitor shall be present for all project-
related ground-disturbing construction activities. The monitor(s) shall be onsite on a full-time basis
during earthmoving activities, including grading, trenching, vegetation removal, or other excavation
activities. Under consultation between the qualified archaeologist and the City, monitoring may be
reduced or eliminated based on observed conditions.
CR-2( d). Unanticipated Discovery of Archaeological Resources. In the event that cultural resources
are encountered during the implementation of mitigation measures CR-2b or CR-2c, all work shall
be halted in the vicinity of the discovery until a qualified archaeologist can assess the significance of
the resource. If the resources are found to be significant, they must be avoided or mitigated pursuant
to the qualified archaeologist's direction and the testing plan outlined under MM CR-2b. Mitigation
may involve preservation in place or documentation and excavation of the resource. A report by the
archaeologist evaluating the find and identifying mitigation actions taken shall be submitted to the
City.
CR-3(a). Qualified Project Paleontologist. A qualified project paleontologist, defined as a
paleontologist who meets the standards of the SVP (2010), shall be retained to carry out all mitigation
measures related to paleontological resources.
CR-3(b ). Worker Environmental Awareness Program (WEAP). Prior to the start of construction, the
project paleontologist or his or her designee shall conduct training for construction personnel
regarding the appearance of fossils and the procedures for notifying paleontological staff should
fossils be discovered by construction staff. The WEAP shall be fulfilled at the time of a
preconstruction meeting at which a qualified paleontologist shall attend.
CR-3(c). Paleontological Monitoring. Ground-disturbing construction activities (including grading,
trenching, foundation work, and other excavations) in previously undisturbed sediments that exceed
10 feet in depth shall be monitored on a full-time basis during initial ground disturbance. Monitoring
shall be conducted by a qualified paleontological monitor, who is defined as an individual who has
experience with collection and salvage of paleontological resources and meets the minimum
standards of the SVP (2010). The duration and timing of the monitoring will be determined by the
project paleontologist and the location and extent of proposed ground disturbance. If the project
R 10923
ATTACHMENT 7
Packet Page 107
Resolution No. 10923 (2018 Series) Page 6
paleontologist determines that full-time monitoring is no longer warranted, based on the specific
geologic conditions at the surface or at depth, the project paleontologist may recommend that
monitoring be reduced to periodic spot-checking or cease entirely. Monitoring is not necessary in
artificial fill or for activities that do not reach 10 feet in depth.
CR-3(d). Fossil Discoveries. In the event of a fossil discovery by the paleontological monitor or
construction personnel, all work in the immediate vicinity of the find shall cease. The project
paleontologist shall evaluate the find before restarting construction activity in the area. If it is
determined that the fossil(s) is (are) scientifically significant, the project paleontologist shall
complete the following conditions to mitigate impacts to significant fossil resources:
1) Salvage of Fossils . The project paleontologist (or paleontological monitor) shall recover
significant fossils following standard field procedures for collecting paleontological
resources, as described by the SVP (2010). Typically, fossils can be safely salvaged quickly
by a single paleontologist and not disrupt construction activity. In some cases, larger fossils
(such as complete skeletons or large mammal fossils) require more extensive excavation and
longer salvage periods. In this case the paleontologist shall have the authority to temporarily
direct, divert or halt construction activity to ensure that the fossil(s) can be removed in a safe
and timely manner.
2) Preparation and Curation of Recovered Fossils. Once salvaged, significant fossils shall be
identified to the lowest possible taxonomic level, prepared to a curation-ready condition, and
curated in a scientific institution with a permanent paleontological collection (such as the
University of California Museum of Paleontology), along with all pertinent field notes,
photos, data, and maps. Fossils of undetermined significance at the time of collection may
also warrant curation at the discretion of the project paleontologist.
Geology and Soils Mitigation
GE0-1. Minimization of Expansive Soil Hazards. Once the final maximum loads of the project have
been determined, a design-level geotechnical report shall be prepared that identifies the most
appropriate geotechnical improvements to onsite soils, the foundation, and parking structure to
minimize expansive soil hazards. Recommendations could include, but are not limited to the
following:
• Use imported non-expansive materials combined with pre-moistening of the soils to provide
protection for slabs and flatwork
• Provide a layer of non-expansive material 18 to 24 inches thick
• Use post-tensioned slabs-on-grade
• Implement shoring methods, such as shotcrete-faced soil nail walls, tangent drilled caissons,
whaler-braced retaining walls, and steel I-beam and lagging walls
• Use over-excavation and recompaction
• Utilize a deep foundation system, such as caissons or rammed aggregate piers
• A certified soils engineer shall be retained for monitoring during construction of the project.
The certified soils engineer shall also provide any necessary soil testing during construction,
to ensure compliance with the design-level geotechnical report, and to provide site-specific
guidance as subsurface materials are encountered.

Hazardous Materials Mitigation
HAZ-1. Hazardous Materials Soil Sampling and Remediation. Prior to issuance of grading permits,
additional soil samples testing for total petroleum hydrocarbons shall be performed. A work plan
shall be completed to address the sampling protocols to be followed, as well as the number of
samples to be taken and the chemical analysis required. Upon City of San Luis Obispo approval, the
work plan shall be implemented and the results of the soil sampling shall be forwarded to the City
of San Luis Obispo. The City shall review the data to determine if any additional investigation or
remedial activities are deemed necessary. No work shall resume in that area until the lead local
regulatory agency has provided written authorization that the area does not warrant any additional
action.
If concentrations of contaminants warrant remediation, contaminated materials shall be remediated
either prior to or concurrent with construction. Remediation shall generally include a management
plan which establishes design and implementation ofremediation. Cleanup may include excavation,
disposal, bio-remediation, or any other treatment of conditions subject to regulatory action. All
necessary reports, regulations and permits shall be followed to achieve cleanup of the site. The
contaminated materials shall be remediated under the supervision of an environmental consultant
licensed to oversee such remediation and under the direction of the lead oversight agency. The
remediation program shall also be approved by the San Luis Obispo Fire Department. All proper
waste handling and disposal procedures shall be followed. Upon completion of the remediation, the
environmental consultant shall prepare a report summarizing the project, the remediation approach
implemented, and the analytical results after completion of the remediation, including all waste
disposal or treatment manifests.
Noise Mitigation
N-l(a). Construction Vehicle Travel Route. Construction vehicles and haul trucks shall utilize
roadways which avoid residential neighborhoods and sensitive receptors where possible. The
applicant shall submit a proposed construction vehicle and hauling route for City review and
approval prior to grading/building permit issuance. The approved construction vehicle and hauling
route shall be used for all construction vehicles and hauling trips during the duration of construction.
N-l(b). Construction Activity Timing. Except for emergency repair of public service utilities or
where an exception is issued by the Community Development Department, no operation of tools or
equipment used in construction, drilling, repair, alteration, or demolition work shall occur daily
between the hours of7:00 PM and 7:00 AM, or anytime on Sundays, holidays, or after sunset, where
that operation creates a noise disturbance that exceeds 75 dBA for single family residential, 80 dBA
for multi-family residential, and 85 dBA for mixed residential/commercial land uses across a
residential or commercial property line for a maximum of 10 days. For construction activities lasting
more than 10 days, noise from construction equipment shall not exceed 60 dBA for single family
residential, 65 dBA for multi-family residential, and 70 dBA for mixed residential/commercial land
uses across a residential or commercial property line.
N-l(c). Construction Equipment Best Management Practices (BMPs). For all construction activity
at the project site, noise attenuation techniques shall be employed to reduce noise levels to extent
feasible in accordance with the City of San Luis Obispo Municipal Code, Title 9, Chapter 9.12
(Noise Control). Such techniques shall include:

• Temporary sound barriers shall be constructed between construction sites and affected uses
N-l(d). Neighborhood Property Owner Notification and Construction Noise Complaints. The
contractor shall inform residents and business operators at properties within 300 feet of the project
site of proposed construction timelines and noise complaint procedures to minimize potential
annoyance related to construction noise. Proof of mailing the notices shall be provided to the
Community Development Department before the City issues a zoning clearance. Signs shall be in
place before beginning of and throughout grading and construction activities. Noise-related
complaints shall be directed to the City's Community Development Department.
N-4. Coordination of Construction Timing. Prior to the issuance of grading permits, the City of San
Luis Obispo shall review and coordinate the construction schedules of any other projects within 300
feet of the project to ensure that construction schedules do not overlap.
Transportation Mitigation
T-1. Construction Management Plan. Prior to the issuance of each building permit, the construction
contractor shall meet with the Public Works department to determine traffic management strategies
to reduce, to the maximum extent feasible, traffic congestion and the effects of parking demand by
construction workers during construction of this project. The construction contractor will develop a
construction management plan for review and approval by the Public Works department. The plan
shall include at least the following items and requirements:
• A set of comprehensive traffic control measures, including scheduling of major truck trips
and deliveries to avoid peak traffic and pedestrian hours, detour signs if required, lane closure
procedures, sidewalk closure procedures, signs, cones for drivers, and designated
construction access routes.
• Notification procedures for adjacent property owners and public safety personnel regarding
when major deliveries, detours, and lane closures will occur.
• Location of construction staging areas for materials, equipment, and vehicles (must be
located on the project site).

Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations
SECTION 1. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Page 11
EXHIBIT A
The City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo considers and relies on the Final Environmental
Impact Report ([EIR] State Clearinghouse Number 2017051011) for the Palm Nipomo Parking
Structure Project in determining if it will carry out the project. The Final EIR consists of the Draft
EIR, responses to comments on the Draft EIR, a list of persons and agencies commenting on the
Draft EIR, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and technical appendices. The City
Council has received, reviewed, considered, and relied on the information contained in the Final EIR,
as well as information provided at hearings and submissions of testimony from official participating
agencies, the public, and other agencies and organizations.
Section 15091 of the State CEQA Guidelines (14 California Code of Regulations [CCR]) and Section
21081 of the Public Resources Code (PRC) require a lead agency to adopt findings for each
significant environmental impact disclosed in an EIR. Specifically, for each significant impact, the
lead agency must find that:
• Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project to avoid or
substantially lessen the significant environmental effects identified in the Final EIR;
• Such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public
agency and not the agency making the finding. Such changes have been adopted by such other
agency or can and should be adopted by that agency; or
• Specific economic, social, legal, technological, or other considerations, including provision
of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the mitigation
measures or project alternatives identified in the Final EIR.
The CCR Title 14, § 15091 (b) requires that the City's findings be supported by substantial evidence
in the record. Accordingly, the lead agency's record consists of the following (on file at the City
Community Development Department office, San Luis Obispo, California):
• Documentary and oral evidence, testimony and staff comments and responses received and
reviewed by the lead agency during public review and the public hearings on the Palm
Nipomo Parking Structure Project
• The City of San Luis Obispo Palm Nipomo Parking Structure Project Final Environmental
Impact Report (July 2018)
In addition to making a finding for each significant impact, if the lead agency approves a project
without mitigating all of the significant impacts, it must prepare a statement of overriding
considerations that balances the benefits of the project against the unavoidable environmental risks.
The statement of overriding considerations must explain the social, economic, or other reasons for
approving the project despite its environmental impacts (14 CCR 15093, PRC §21081).
This document contains the findings and statement of overriding considerations for the approval of
the Palm Nipomo Parking Structure Project and reflects the City's independent judgment. This
document incorporates by reference the Final EIR. The EIR and other portions of the administrative
record are available for review at the following location:

findings pursuant to, and in accordance with, Public Resources Code §21081.
SECTION 2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
2.1 Proposed Project
The Palm Nipomo Parking Structure project consists of a zone change and general plan amendment
of five parcels from the Office (0-H) zone and one parcel from the Medium-High Residential (R-3)
zone to the Public Facility (PF-H) zone. The project would include the removal of an existing
77-space surface parking lot and five existing residential structures, and construction of a five-level
parking structure, commercial space, and non-profit theater.
The parking structure would provide up to 445 parking spaces. Main vehicular access to the structure
would be from Palm Street, with secondary access from Nipomo Street. Vehicle access would not be
provided from Monterey Street, but a direct pedestrian connection would be provided from the
structure to Monterey Street. The parking structure's maximum height would be 50 feet, excluding
elevator towers.
The project would also include 5,000 square feet of commercial space on two levels fronting Nipomo
Street. The maximum height of the commercial space would be 41 feet above existing grade. In
addition, the project would include a new structure for the San Luis Obispo Little Theatre (now the
San Luis Obispo Repertory Theatre or SLO REP) that would front Monterey Street. The theater
would be a three-story structure with 290 seats and a gross floor area of roughly 23,841 square feet.
Entry to the theater would be provided at the street level through a public plaza along Monterey
Street. The street-level plaza would include a public seating area and incorporate public art. The
maximum height of the theater would be approximately 43 feet above existing grade. Section 2.5 ,
Project Characteristics, of the Final EIR provides a detailed description of the project.
2.2 Project Objectives
The City's objectives for the Palm Nipomo Parking Structure project include the following:
1. Provide a minimum of 400 parking spaces
2. Accommodate cultural uses on Monterey Street in front of the parking structure
3. Include a pedestrian-level public use plaza area at the comer ofNipomo and Monterey Streets
4. Provide a direct pedestrian connection from the parking structure to Monterey Street
5. Preserve the large oak tree on-site
6. Consider contextual sensitivity of surrounding properties (e.g., Lattimer-Hayes adobe)

SECTION 3. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
3.1 Background
Page 13
EXHIBIT A
The Final EIR was prepared in compliance with CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines. In
accordance with Section 15121 of the State CEQA Guidelines, the Final EIR serves as an
informational document for the public and City of San Luis Obispo decision makers. The Final EIR
contains a project-level environmental review that fulfills the requirement of a project-level EIR. As
defined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15161, a project-level EIR:
... examines the environmental impacts of a specific development project. This type of EIR
should focus primarily on the changes in the environment that would result from the
development project. The EIR shall examine all phases of the project including planning,
construction , and operation.
In accordance with Section 15088 of the State CEQA Guidelines, the Draft EIR was circulated for a
78-day public review period that began December 14, 2017 and concluded on March 1, 2018; the
City accepted comment letters through March 10, 2018. The City held a Cultural Heritage Committee
hearing for the project on January 22, 2018 and a public Planning Commission hearing on February
28 , 2018 to receive public testimony in the form of verbal comments on the Draft EIR.
The response to comments section of the Final EIR (Section 8, Response to Comments on the Draft
EIR) includes each written and verbal comment received by the City. The Final EIR consists of the
Draft EIR, responses to comments on the Draft EIR, a list of persons and agencies commenting on
the Draft EIR, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and technical appendices.
3.2 Impact AnaJysis
Three categories of impacts are identified in the Final EIR:
Class I Class I impacts are significant and unavoidable. To approve a project resulting in Class I
impacts, the CEQA Guidelines require decision makers to make findings of overriding
consideration that "specific legal, technological, economic, social, or other considerations
make infeasible the mitigation measures or alternatives identified in the EIR."
Class II Class II impacts are significant but can be mitigated to a level of insignificance by
mitigation measures identified in the EIR. When approving a project with Class II
impacts, the decision makers must make findings that changes or alternatives to the
project have been incorporated that reduce the impacts to a less than significant level.
Class III Class III impacts are adverse but not significant.

SECTION 4. FINDINGS FOR EFFECTS DETERMINED TO BE LESS THAN
SIGNIFICANT WITH MITIGATION
This section identifies impacts that can be fully avoided or reduced to a less-than-significant level
through the incorporation of feasible mitigation measures into the project, as identified in the Final
EIR.
4.1 Aesthetics
1. Impact AES-3: Implementation of the project would result in an increase in nighttime
lighting and daytime glare. With implementation of Mitigation Measures AES-3(a), Lighting Plan,
and AES-3(b), Glare Reduction, that require preparation and approval of a comprehensive lighting
plan consistent with the Municipal Code Night Sky Ordinance and use of non-reflective materials,
the increase would not adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area and this impact would be
reduced to a less than significant level (refer to pages 56-57 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: The following mitigation measures are required to reduce light and glare
impacts from the project.
Mitigation Measure AES-3(a) Lighting Plan. Prior to issuance of building
permits, the applicant shall prepare and submit a comprehensive lighting plan
for Architectural Review Committee review and approval. The lighting plan
shall be consistent with the Municipal Code Night Sky Ordinance, and prepared
using guidance and best practices endorsed by the International Dark Sky
Association. The lighting plan shall address all aspects of the lighting, including
but not limited to all buildings, infrastructure, driveways, paths, plazas, safety,
and signage. The lighting plan must include identification of all types, sizes, and
intensities of wall mounted building lights and landscape accent lighting, and a
photometric map must be provided. The lighting plan shall include the
following:

2. Cumulative Impact-Light and Glare. Cumulative development would be subject to similar
existing City regulations pertaining to light and glare as discussed under Impact AES-3. New
sources of light and glare in the boundaries of the city would be evaluated on a case-by-case
basis to ensure compatibility with surrounding uses. While the proposed project would
introduce new sources of light and glare in the project area, implementation of mitigation
measures AES-3(a), Lighting Plan, and AES-3(b ), Glare Reduction, would ensure lighting
and glare would be compatible with surrounding uses and comply with existing policies.
Design review procedures would reduce impacts on a project-by-project basis. Therefore, the
project's impacts to light and glare would not be cumulatively considerable (refer to pages
56-57 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: Mitigation Measure AES-3(a) and AES-3(b) are required to reduce light and
glare impacts from the project.
b. Finding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated
into, the project to avoid or lessen to a less than significant level the significant
environmental effects identified in the Final EIR.
4.2 Air Quality
1. Construction Emissions: Construction of the project would generate temporary increases in
localized air pollutant emissions (fugitive dust, ozone precursors, and diesel particulate matter
emissions). The estimated construction emissions associated with the project and would be below the
San Luis Obispo Air Pollution Control District (SLOAPCD) thresholds and would not introduce new
hazardous air pollutants to the area, but in accordance with the standards of the SLOPACD CEQA
Handbook, standard mitigation measures are required because sensitive receptors are located within
1,000 feet of the project site and because the South Coast Air Basin is in non-attainment for PM10.
Implementation of mitigation measures AQ-1, Fugitive Dust Control Measures, AQ-2(a), Standard
Control Measures for Construction Equipment, AQ-2(b), Best Available Control Technology for
Construction Equipment, and AQ-2(c), Architectural Coating, are required to reduce fugitive dust,
ozone precursors, and diesel particulate matter emissions from the project in accordance with
SLOAPCD requirements. With implementation of mitigation measures AQ-1 and AQ-2(a) through
AQ-2(c), this impact would be reduced to a less than significant level (refer to pages 127-129 of the
Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: The following mitigation measures are required to address project
construction emissions.
Mitigation Measure AQ-1 Fugitive Dust Control Measures. Construction
projects shall implement the following dust control measures so as to reduce
PM 10 emissions in accordance with SLOAPCD requirements.

b. Finding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated
into, the project to avoid or lessen to a less than significant level the significant
environmental effects identified in the Final EIR.
4.3 Biological Resources
1. Wildlife Movement: Construction of the project would involve general construction activity
and tree removal that may affect protected nesting birds. With implementation of Mitigation
Measure BI0-1, Nesting Bird Protection, this impact would be reduced to a less than
significant level (refer to page 129 and 130 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: The following mitigation measure is required to reduce impacts to protected
nesting birds.

EXHIBIT A
Mitigation Measure BI0-1 Nesting Bird Protection. To avoid disturbance of
nesting and special-status birds, activities related to the project, including, but
not limited to, vegetation removal, ground disturbance, and construction and
demolition shall occur outside of the bird breeding season (typically February
through August in the project region). If construction must begin within the
breeding season, then a pre-construction nesting bird survey shall be conducted
no more than 3 days prior to initiation of ground disturbance and vegetation
removal activities. The nesting bird pre-construction survey shall be conducted
within the Project Boundary, including a 300-foot buffer (500-foot for raptors),
on foot, and within inaccessible areas (i.e., private lands) afar using binoculars
to the extent practical. The survey shall be conducted by a biologist familiar with
the identification of avian species known to occur in the area. If nests are found,
an avoidance buffer (which is dependent upon the species, the proposed work
activity, and existing disturbances associated with land uses outside of the site)
shall be determined and demarcated by the biologist with bright orange
construction fencing, flagging, construction lathe, or other means to mark the
boundary. All construction personnel shall be notified as to the existence of the
buffer zone and to avoid entering the buffer zone during the nesting season. No
ground-disturbing activities shall occur within this buffer until the avian
biologist has confirmed that breeding/nesting is completed and the young have
fledged the nest. Encroachment into the buffer shall occur only at the discretion
of the qualified biologist.
b. Fi nding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated
into, the project to avoid or lessen to a less than significant level the significant
environmental effects identified in the Final EIR.
4.4 Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources
1. Impact CR-2: Construction of the project would include ground disturbance that could result
in impacts to previously unidentified archaeological resources. Implementation of mitigation
measures CR-2(a), Retain a Qualified Principal Investigator, CR-2(b), City of San Luis
Obispo Consolidated Approach for Archaeological Investigations, CR-2(c), Archaeological
Monitoring, and CR-2(d), Unanticipated Discovery of Archaeological Resources, would
reduce impacts to archaeological resources to a less than significant level (refer to page 75 of
the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: The following mitigation measures are required to reduce potential impacts to
archaeological resources.
Mitigation Measure CR-2(a) Retain a Qualified Principal Investigator. A
qualified principal investigator, defined as an archaeologist who meets the
Secretary of the Interior's Standards for professional archaeology (hereafter
qualified archaeologist), shall be retained to carry out all mitigation measures
related to archaeological resources.

EXHIBIT A
Mitigation Measure CR-2(b) City of San Luis Obispo Consolidated
Approach for Archaeological Investigations. Mitigation of archaeological
resources within the project area shall follow the Consolidated Approach as
outlined in the City of San Luis Obispo Archaeological Resource Preservation
Program Guidelines. The Consolidated Approach shall include (1) the
preparation of a Research Design and Mitigation Plan prepared by the qualified
archaeologist and submitted for written approval to the City's Community
Development Director (Director), which shall include but not be limited to the
research design, laboratory and field methods, public interpretation, and location
of curation; (2) monitoring of demolition and clearing of pavement within the
project area; (3) fieldwork after the removal of pavement consisting of a Phase
I inventory, Phase 2 Testing and Evaluation, and Phase 3 Data Recovery aimed
at locating archaeological remains, evaluating their significance and integrity,
and mitigating impacts through data recovery excavation; (4) the completion of
special studies, such as fauna! analysis, if appropriate, and the curation of
recovered artifacts; and ( 5) the completion of a technical report documenting the
results of the consolidated approach prepared in accordance with current
professional standards and submitted to the Director.
Mitigation Measure CR-2(c) Archaeological Monitoring. An archaeological
monitor shall be present for all project-related ground-disturbing construction
activities. The monitor(s) shall be on-site on a full-time basis during
earthmoving activities within native soils, including grading, trenching,
vegetation removal, or other excavation activities. Under consultation between
the qualified archaeologist and the City, monitoring may be reduced or
eliminated based on observed conditions.
Mitigation Measure CR-2(d) Unanticipated Discovery of Archaeological
Resources. In the event that cultural resources are encountered during the
implementation of Mitigation Measures CR-2(b) or CR-2(c), all work shall be
halted in the vicinity of the discovery until a qualified archaeologist can assess
the significance of the resource. If the resources are found to be significant, they
must be avoided or mitigated pursuant to the qualified archaeologist's direction
and the testing plan outlined under Mitigation Measure CR-2(b ). Mitigation may
involve preservation in place or documentation and excavation of the resource.
A report by the archaeologist evaluating the find and identifying mitigation
actions taken shall be submitted to the City.
b. Finding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated
into, the project to avoid or lessen to a less than significant level the significant
environmental effects identified in the Final EIR.
2. Impact CR-3: Construction of the project would result in ground disturbance that could
indirectly or directly destroy a unique paleontological resource. With implementation of
mitigation measures CR-3(a), Retain a Qualified Project Paleontologist, CR-3(b),

EXHIBIT A
Paleontological Worker Environmental Awareness Program, and CR-2(d), Fossil
Discoveries, this impact would be reduced to a less than significant level (refer to page 77 of
the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: The following mitigation measures would reduce potential impacts to
paleontological resources to a less than significant level.
Mitigation Measure CR-3(a) Retain a Qualified Project Paleontologist. A
qualified project paleontologist, defined as a paleontologist who meets the
standards of the SVP (2010), shall be retained to carry out all mitigation
measures related to paleontological resources.
Mitigation Measure CR-3(b) Paleontological Worker Environmental
Awareness Program. Prior to the start of construction, the project
paleontologist or his or her designee shall conduct training for construction
personnel regarding the appearance of fossils and the procedures for notifying
paleontological staff should fossils be discovered by construction staff. The
WEAP shall be fulfilled at the time of a preconstruction meeting at which a
qualified paleontologist shall attend.
Mitigation Measure CR-3(c) Paleontological Monitoring. Ground-disturbing
construction activities (including grading, trenching, foundation work, and other
excavations) in previously undisturbed sediments that exceed 10 feet in depth
shall be monitored on a full-time basis during initial ground disturbance.
Monitoring shall be conducted by a qualified paleontological monitor, who is
defined as an individual who has experience with collection and salvage of
paleontological resources and meets the minimum standards of the SVP (2010).
The duration and timing of the monitoring will be determined by the project
paleontologist and the location and extent of proposed ground disturbance. If the
project paleontologist determines that full-time monitoring is no longer
warranted, based on the specific geologic conditions at the surface or at depth,
the project paleontologist may recommend that monitoring be reduced to
periodic spot-checking or cease entirely. Monitoring is not necessary in artificial
fill or for activities that do not reach 10 feet in depth.
Mitigation Measure CR-3( d) Fossil Discoveries. In the event of a fossil
discovery by the paleontological monitor or construction personnel, all work in
the immediate vicinity of the find shall cease. The project paleontologist shall
evaluate the find before restarting construction activity in the area. If it is
determined that the fossil(s) is (are) scientifically significant, the project
paleontologist shall complete the following conditions to mitigate impacts to
significant fossil resources:
1) Salvage of Fossils. The project paleontologist (or paleontological monitor)
should recover significant fossils following standard field procedures for
collecting paleontological resources, as described by the SVP (2010).
R 10923
ATTACHMENT 7

Page 21
EXHIBIT A
Typically, fossils can be safely salvaged quickly by a single paleontologist
and not disrupt construction activity. In some cases larger fossils (such as
complete skeletons or large mammal fossils) require more extensive
excavation and longer salvage periods. In this case the paleontologist
should have the authority to temporarily direct, divert, or halt construction
activity to ensure that the fossil(s) can be removed in a safe and timely
manner.
2) Preparation and Curation of Recovered Fossils. Once salvaged, significant
fossils should be identified to the lowest possible taxonomic level, prepared
to a curation-ready condition, and curated in a scientific institution with a
permanent paleontological collection (such as the University of California
Museum of Paleontology), along with all pertinent field notes, photos, data,
and maps. Fossils of undetermined significance at the time of collection
may also warrant curation at the discretion of the project paleontologist.
b. Finding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated
into, the project to avoid or lessen to a less than significant level the significant
environmental effects identified in the Final EIR.
3. Impact CR-5: Ground-disturbing activities associated with construction of the project have
the potential to disturb unidentified human remains. Discovery of human remains during
project excavation would require compliance with Health and Safety Code §7050.5 and
California PRC §5097.94 and §5097.98. PRC §5097.98 also addresses the disposition of
Native American burials, protects such remains, and established the Native American
Heritage Commission to resolve any related disputes. Compliance with Health and Safety
Code §7050.5 and PRC §5097.94 and §5097.98 would ensure that unanticipated discovery of
human remains during project excavation, including those interred outside of formal
cemeteries, would be addressed appropriately by the county coroner and the California Native
American Heritage Commission (ifrequired). In addition, with implementation of Mitigation
Measure CR-2(d), Unanticipated Discovery of Archaeological Remains Resources, this
impact would be reduced to a less than significant level (refer to page 79 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: Compliance with existing regulations and implementation of Mitigation
Measure CR-2(d), Unanticipated Discovery of Archaeological Remains
Resources, would ensure that potential impacts to human remains and burial
grounds would be less than significant.
b. Finding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated
into, the project to avoid or lessen to a less than significant level the significant
environmental effects identified in the Final EIR.
4. Cumulative Impact -Archaeological, Paleontological, and Tribal Cultural Resources:
Planned buildout of the City of San Luis Obispo under the General Plan would cumulatively
increase the potential for adverse effects on cultural and tribal cultural resources in the city.
The project would incrementally contribute to this cumulative effect. Generally, impacts to
R 10923
ATTACHMENT 7

EXHIBIT A
cultural and tribal cultural resources are site-specific. Accordingly, as required under
applicable laws and regulations, potential impacts associated with cumulative developments
would be addressed on a case-by-case basis. The project, along with other cumulative projects
in the city, would be required to comply with existing state and local regulations that address
the protection of cultural and tribal cultural resources in the city. With implementation of
mitigation measures CR-2(a) through CR-2(d), and CR-3(a) through CR-3(d), the project
would reduce potential impacts to archaeological and/orpaleontological resources to less than
significant levels. In addition, the project would result in a less than significant impact on
tribal cultural resources. Therefore, the project would not contribute substantially to the
cumulative loss of archaeological, paleontological, or tribal cultural resources in the city.
a. Mitigation: Compliance with existing regulations and mitigation measures CR-2(a)
through CR-2(d), and CR-3(a) through CR-3(d), would ensure the project's
contribution to cumulative potential impacts would be less than significant.
b. Finding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated
into, the project to avoid or lessen to a less than significant level the significant
environmental effects identified in the Final EIR.
4.5 Geology and Soils
1. Expansive Soils: Implementation of the project would occur on soils that have moderate to
high expansion potential. With implementation of Mitigation Measure GEO-I, Minimization
of Expansive Soil Hazards, this impact would be reduced to a less than significant level (refer
to page 130 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: The following mitigation measure is required to reduce impacts related to
expansive soils.
Mitigation Measure GE0-1 Minimization of Expansive Soil Hazards. Once
the final maximum loads of the project have been determined, a design-level
geotechnical report shall be prepared that identifies the most appropriate
geotechnical improvements to on-site soils, the foundation, and parking
structure to minimize expansive soil hazards. Recommendations could include,
but are not limited to the following:
• Use of imported non-expansive materials combined with pre-moistening of
the soils to provide protection for slabs and flatwork
• A layer of non-expansive material 18 to 24 inches thick
• Post-tensioned slabs-on-grade
• Shoring methods, such as shotcrete-faced soil nail walls, tangent drilled
caissons, whaler-braced retaining walls, and steel I-beam and lagging walls
• Overexcavation and recompaction
• Utilization of a deep foundation system, such as caissons, driven piles, or
rammed aggregate piers
A certified soils engineer shall be retained for monitoring during construction of
the project. The certified soils engineer shall also provide any necessary soil

testing during construction, to ensure compliance with the design-level
geotechnical report, and to provide site-specific guidance as subsurface
materials are encountered.
b. Finding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in or incorporated
into the project to avoid or lessen to a less than significant level the significant
environmental effects identified in the Final EIR.
4.6 Hazards and Hazardous Materials
1. Hazardous Materials: Construction of the project would require excavation and removal of
existing fill that has the potential to be contaminated. Therefore, construction activities could
expose workers to contaminated soil on-site. With implementation of Mitigation Measure
HAZ-1, Hazardous Materials Soil Sampling and Remediation, this impact would be reduced
to a less than significant level (refer to pages 131-132 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: The following mitigation measure would reduce impacts associated with
contaminated soils.
Mitigation Measure HAZ-1 Hazardous Materials Soil Sampling and
Remediation. Prior to issuance of grading permits, additional soil samples
testing for total petroleum hydrocarbons shall be performed. A work plan shall
be completed to address the sampling protocols to be followed, as well as the
number of samples to be taken and the chemical analysis required. Upon City of
San Luis Obispo approval, the work plan shall be implemented and the results
of the soil sampling shall be forwarded to the City of San Luis Obispo. The City
shall review the data to determine if any additional investigation or remedial
activities are deemed necessary. No work shall resume in that area until the lead
local regulatory agency has provided written authorization that the area does not
warrant any additional action.
If concentrations of contaminants warrant remediation, contaminated materials
shall be remediated either prior to or concurrent with construction. Remediation
shall generally include a management plan which establishes design and
implementation of remediation. Cleanup may include excavation, disposal, bio-
remediation, or any other treatment of conditions subject to regulatory action.
All necessary reports, regulations, and permits shall be followed to achieve
cleanup of the site. The contaminated materials shall be remediated under the
supervision of an environmental consultant licensed to oversee such remediation
and under the direction of the lead oversight agency. The remediation program
shall also be approved by the San Luis Obispo Fire Department. All proper waste
handling and disposal procedures shall be followed. Upon completion of the
remediation, the environmental consultant shall prepare a report summarizing
the project, the remediation approach implemented, and the analytical results
after completion of the remediation, including all waste disposal or treatment
manifests.

4.7 Noise
1. Cumulative Impact -Construction Noise. Construction of the proposed project could
overlap with the construction of other projects in the vicinity (Monterey Place and the Vesper
Hotel at the Creamery) and result in cumulative construction noise. With implementation of
Mitigation Measure N-4, Coordination of Construction Timing, this impact would be reduced
to a less than significant level (refer to pages 99-100 of the FEIR).
a. Mitigation: The following mitigation measure is required to reduce impacts related to
cumulative construction noise.
Mitigation Measure N-4 Coordination of Construction Timing. Prior to the
issuance of grading permits, the City of San Luis Obispo shall review and
coordinate the construction schedules of any other projects within 300 feet of
the project to ensure that construction schedules do not overlap.
b. Finding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated
into, the project to avoid or lessen to a less than significant level the significant
environmental effects identified in the Final EIR.
4.8 Transportation
1. Traffic Hazards: Construction of the project would result in short-term construction traffic,
construction parking, and modifications to existing pedestrian, bicycle, and transit circulation
during the construction period. The preparation of a construction management plan, as
described in Mitigation Measure T-1 would reduce construction impacts to a less than
significant level (refer to pages 132-133 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: The following mitigation measure is required to reduce construction traffic
impacts.
Mitigation Measure T-1 Construction Management Plan. Prior to the
issuance of each building permit, the construction contractor shall meet with the
Public Works department to determine traffic management strategies to reduce,
to the maximum extent feasible, traffic congestion and the effects of parking
demand by construction workers during construction of this project. The
construction contractor will develop a construction management plan for review
and approval by the Public Works department. The plan should include at least
the following items and requirements:
• A set of comprehensive traffic control measures, including scheduling of
major truck trips and deliveries to avoid peak traffic and pedestrian hours,

measures. Section 15091 of the State CBQA Guidelines (14 California Code of Regulations [CCR])
and Section 21081 of the Public Resources Code require a lead agency to make findings for each
significant environmental impact disclosed in an BIR. Specifically, for each significant impact, the
lead agency must find that:
• Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project to avoid or
substantially lessen the significant environmental effects identified in the Final BIR;
• Such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public
agency and not the agency making the finding. Such changes have been adopted by such other
agency or can and should be adopted by that agency; or

• Specific economic, social, legal, technological, or other considerations, including provision
of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make the mitigation measures or
project alternatives identified in the Final EIR infeasible.
Each of these findings must be supported by substantial evidence in the administrative record. This
section identifies impacts that can be reduced, but not to a less-than-significant level, through the
incorporation of feasible mitigation measures into the project, and which therefore, remain significant
and unavoidable, as identified in the Final EIR. The impacts identified in this section are considered
in the same sequence in which they appear in the EIR. Where adoption of feasible mitigation
measures is not effective in avoiding an impact or reducing it to a less-than-significant level, the
feasibility of adopting alternatives to the proposed project is considered in Section 7 of this document.
5.1 Aesthetics
1. Impact AES-2: The project would permanently alter the existing visual character of the site
because it would introduce new structures that are substantially different in terms of size,
scale, and massing. The project includes various design features that would reduce visual
impacts to the extent feasible, but due to the size, scale, and massing of the project, impacts
related to a change in visual character would remain significant and unavoidable (refer to
page 54 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: No feasible mitigation is available.
b. Finding: The City finds that specific economic, social, legal, technological, or other
considerations make the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in
the Final EIR infeasible. The project design features would reduce visual
impacts to the extent feasible; however, additional mitigation is not available to
reduce the size, scale, and massing of the project while satisfying most of the
project objectives. Therefore, impacts related the alteration of visual character
would remain significant and unavoidable. A statement of overriding
considerations for this impact is made in Section 7.
2. Cumulative Impact -Visual Character: Combined with approved, pending, and proposed
development in San Luis Obispo, the project would contribute to increasing urbanization of
the downtown area and would increase the intensity of development (size, scale, and massing)
in the area. This includes altering the fundamental character from predominantly older one-
to two-story structures to a mix of such older buildings interspersed with new taller structures
of four to six stories. The project would result in a significant and unavoidable impact
associated with the change in visual character due to the increase in size, scale, and massing
of the proposed structures. In combination with other development, the project's contribution
to this impact would be cumulatively considerable (refer to page 57 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: No feasible mitigation measures are available.
b. Finding: The City finds that specific economic, social, legal, technological, or other
considerations make the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in

the Final EIR infeasible . No feasible mitigation measures are available for the
project's contribution of cumulative impacts, which would remain significant
and unavoidable. A statement of overriding considerations for this impact is
made in Section 7.
5.2 Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources
1. Impact CR-1: Construction of the project would result in the demolition of two structures
on the project site that are historic resources and adversely affect the Downtown Historic
District. This would cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of historical
resources as defined in CEQA Guidelines §15064.5. Implementation of mitigation measure
CR-1 is required to reduce impacts to the maximum extent feasible, but this impact is Class
I, significant and unavoidable (refer to page 72 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: Mitigation measure CR-1 is required to reduce impacts to historical resources
to the maximum extent practicable.
Mitigation Measure CR-1 Historical Building Documentation Packages.
Impacts to historical resources shall be minimized through the preparation of
archival historic building documentation packages for both 610 and 614
Monterey Street. Prior to issuance of demolition permits, the City of San Luis
Obispo shall ensure that documentation of both properties is completed in the
form of a Historic American Building Survey (HABS)-Like documentation that
shall comply with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Architectural and
Engineering Documentation (NPS 1990). The documentation shall generally
follow the HABS Level III requirements and include high-quality digital
photographic recordation of the buildings and their overall setting, detailed
historic narrative report, and compilation of historic research. The
documentation shall be completed by a qualified architectural historian or
historian who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification
Standards for History and/or Architectural History (NPS 1983). Individual
archival documentation packages shall be completed for both properties and
offered as donated material to the San Luis Obispo Library and the History
Center of San Luis Obispo County, where it would be available to local
researchers.
b. Fi nding: The City finds that specific economic, social, legal, technological, or other
considerations make the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in
the Final EIR infeasible. Mitigation Measure CR-l(a) is feasible and has been
adopted. Mitigation Measure CR-1 would reduce impacts to the maximum
extent feasible through the preparation of archival historic building
documentation packages. However, this measure would not eliminate the
permanent irreversible impacts to the historic resources, and no other feasible
mitigation measures are available. Therefore, the potential impact to the historic
residences would remain significant and unavoidable, despite implementation

of the required mitigation. A statement of overriding considerations for this
impact is made in Section 7.
2. Cumulative Impact -Cultural Resources: In combination with buildout of the city under
the General Plan, the project would result in a significant and unavoidable impact to historic
resources in the Downtown Historic District. Mitigation Measure CR-1, Historic Building
Documentation Packages, would reduce the project's impact to historical resources to the
maximum extent feasible; however, this measure would not eliminate the permanent
cumulative or individual impacts to the identified historic resources, and no other feasible
mitigation measures are available. Because of this, the project would contribute to the
cumulative loss of historic resources in the city. This would be a Class I, Significant and
Unavoidable, cumulative impact to historical resources (refer to page 80 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: Implementation of Mitigation Measures CR-I would reduce the project's
contribution to the cumulative impact to historic resources to the maximum
extent feasible. No other feasible mitigation are available that would meet the
project objectives.
b. Finding: The City finds that specific economic, social, legal, technological, or other
considerations make the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in
the Final EIR infeasible. Mitigation Measures CR-I is feasible and has been
adopted. No additional feasible mitigation is available for the cumulative loss of
historic resources in the city, which would remain a significant and unavoidable
impact. A statement of overriding considerations for this impact is made in
Section?.
5.3 Noise
1. Impact N-1: Temporary construction activity would create noise that could exceed City of
San Luis Obispo Municipal Code regulations. Required mitigation measures N-l(a) through
N-1 ( d) require implementation of noise reduction devices and techniques during construction,
and would reduce noise associated with on-and off-site construction activity to the maximum
extent feasible. Although mitigation measures N-l(a), Construction Vehicle Travel Route, N-
l(b), Construction Activity Timing, N-l(c), Construction Equipment Best Management
Practices, and N-l(d), Neighboring Property Owner Notification and Construction Noise
Complaints, would reduce impacts from haul trucks and construction equipment to the extent
feasible, construction noise would continue to exceed thresholds. Therefore, construction-
related noise impacts would be minimized, but not eliminated. As a result, temporary noise
impacts associated with on-and off-site construction activity would be significant and
unavoidable (refer to page 92 of the Final EIR).
a. Mitigation: Implementation of the following measures would reduce noise impacts to the
maximum extent feasible.
Mitigation Measure N-l(a) Construction Vehicle Travel Route.
Construction vehicles and haul trucks shall use roadways that avoid residential

neighborhoods and sensitive receptors where possible. The applicant shall
submit a proposed construction vehicle and hauling route for City review and
approval prior to grading/building permit issuance. The approved construction
vehicle and hauling route shall be used for all construction vehicles and hauling
trips during the duration of construction.
Mitigation Measure N-l(b) Construction Activity Timing. Except for
emergency repair of public service utilities or where an exception is issued by
the Community Development Department, no operation of tools or equipment
used in construction, drilling, repair, alteration, or demolition work shall occur
daily between the hours of 7:00 PM and 7:00 AM, or anytime on Sundays,
holidays, or after sunset, where that operation creates a noise disturbance that
exceeds 75 dBA for single family residential, 80 dBA for multi-family
residential, and 85 dBA for mixed residential/commercial land uses across a
residential or commercial property line for a maximum of 10 days. For
construction activities lasting more than 10 days, noise from construction
equipment shall not exceed 60 dBA for single family residential, 65 dBA for
multi-family residential, and 70 dBA for mixed residential/commercial land
uses across a residential or commercial property line.
Mitigation Measure N-l(c) Construction Equipment Best Management
Practices (BMPs). For all construction activity at the project site, noise
attenuation techniques shall be employed to reduce noise levels to extent
feasible in accordance with the City of San Luis Obispo Municipal Code, Title
9, Chapter 9.12 (Noise Control). Such techniques shall include:
• Sound blankets on noise-generating equipment.
• Stationary construction equipment that generates noise levels above 60 dBA
at the project boundaries shall be shielded with barriers that meet a sound
transmission class (a rating of how well noise barriers attenuate sound) of
25.
• All diesel equipment shall be operated with closed engine doors and shall be
equipped with factory-recommended mufflers.
• For stationary equipment, the applicant shall designate equipment areas with
appropriate acoustic shielding on building and grading plans. Equipment and
shielding shall be installed prior to construction and remain in the designated
location throughout construction activities.
• Electrical power shall be used to power air compressors and similar power
tools.
• The movement of construction-related vehicles, with the exception of
passenger vehicles, along roadways adjacent to sensitive receptors shall be
limited to the hours between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM, Monday through
Saturday. No movement of heavy equipment shall occur on Sundays or
official holidays (e.g., Thanksgiving, Labor Day).
• Temporary sound barriers shall be constructed between construction sites
and affected uses.

Mitigation Measure N-l(d) Neighboring Property Owner Notification and
Construction Noise Complaints~ The contractor shall inform residents and
business operators at properties within 300 feet of the project site of proposed
construction timelines and noise complaint procedures to minimize potential
annoyance related to construction noise. Proof of mailing the notices shall be
provided to the Community Devel opment Department before the City issues a
zoning clearance. Signs shall be in place before beginning of and throughout
grading and construction activities. Noise-related complaints shall be directed
to the City's Community Development Department.
b. Finding: The City finds that specific e conomic, social, legal, technological, or other
considerations make the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in
the Final E IR infeasible. Mitigation Measures N-l(a) through N-l(d) are
feasible and have been adopted. A vailab]e mitigation would not reduce the noise
below the applicable City standards for construction activity. Therefore
temporary noise impacts associated with on-site and off-site construction
activity would be significant and unavoidable. A statement of overriding
considerations for this impact is made in Section 7.
SECTION 6. FINDINGS FOR ALTERNATIVES TO THE PROPOSED
PROJECT
6.1 Introduction
As identified in Section 5 of this document, the proposed project will cause the following significant
and unavoidable environmental impacts to occur:
• Impact AES-2: Alteration of existing visual character
• Cumulative aesthetic impact
• Impact CR-1: Removal of historic resources
• Cumulative historic resource impact
• Impact N-1: Temporary construction activity noise
Because the project will cause significant and unavoidable environmental impacts to occur as
identified above, the City must consider the feasibility of any environmentally superior alternatives
to the project, as proposed. The City must evaluate whether one or more of these alternatives could
substantially lessen or avoid the unavoidable significant environmental effects.
As such, the environmental superiority and feasibility of each alternative to the project is considered
in this section. Specifically, this section evaluates the effectiveness of these alternatives in reducing
the significant and unavoidable impacts of the proposed project.
6.2 Description of the Alternatives
The Final EIR for the project evaluates the following four alternatives to the project: (1) a no project,
no development alternative; (2) an infused project and live/work units alternative· (3) an alternative
R 10923
ATTACHMENT 7

EXHIBIT A
that would develop the parking structure and commercial plus residential units; and (4) an alternative
that would preserve the historic resources on-site.
1. Alternative 1: No Project, No Development. As required by CEQA, this EIR evaluates the
environmental consequences of not proceeding with the project. This alternative assumes the
project is not approved, that none of the proposed entitlements are implemented, and that no
further development would occur on the project site.
2. Alternative 2: Project Plus Live/Work Units. This alternative assumes the build out of the
proposed project (parking structure, theater, and commercial space) except the 5,000 square feet
of commercial space would be reduced to 2,500 square feet of commercial space and four
residential units would be included on the second level. This alternative discusses the impact of
the four residential apartments on the second story of the commercial area as opposed to the 2,500
square feet of commercial space. As with the proposed project, vehicle access would continue to
be provided from Palm Street and Nipomo streets via the parking structure. For the purpose of
this analysis, it is assumed that this alternative would follow the same site plan/floor plan as the
proposed project.
3. Alternative 3: Parking Structure, Comme:rcial and Residential. This alternative would
include the five-level parking structure and 5,000 square feet of commercial space, consistent
with the proposed project, but this alternative would include 22 two-bedroom apartments in place
of the theater and plaza along Monterey Street. This alternative would include removal of the
existing surface parking lot and aJl existing residential structures. As with the proposed project,
vehicle parking/site access would continue to be provided from Palm Street and Nipomo Street
via the parking structure. For the purpose of this analysis, it is assumed that the site plan would
adhere to the basic layout and footprint of development as is contemplated in the proposed project
for the parking structure and commercial space, with the direct replacement/addition of
apartments in place of the theater.
4. Alternative 4: Historic Resource Preservation. This alternative would involve the construction
of the five-level parking structure and 5,000 square feet of commerC'ial space, consistent with the
proposed project, but this alternative would not include construction of the theater or plaza
fronting Monterey Street. This alternative assumes the historic residences along Monterey Street
( 610 and 614) would remain intact and at their existing location; however, much of the backyards
at these properties would be developed with the parking and commercial uses. For the purpose
of this analysis, it is assumed that the site plan would adhere to the basic layout of development
as is contemplated in the proposed project for the parking structure and commercial space and
omit the theater.
6.3 Effectiveness of Alternatives in Avoiding Significant Project Impacts
This section evaluates the effectiveness of the alternatives in reducing the significant and unavoidable
impacts of the proposed project.

Page 33
EXHIBIT A
1. Significant and Unavoidable Aesthetic Impacts. The proposed project would result in
significant and unavoidable project-level and cumulative impacts related to the alteration of the
visual character in the project vicinity. Under Alternative 1 (No Project No Development), no
development would occur, therefore aesthetic impacts would not occur. Under Alternative 2
(Project Plus Live/Work Units), similar buildout would occur compared to the proposed project,
which would result in a similar significant and unavoidable impact. Alternative 3 (Parking
Structure, Commercial, Residential) would also result in similar aesthetic impacts due to a similar
site layout and footprint; therefore, impacts would remain significant and unavoidable.
Alternative 4 (Historic Resource Preservatjon) would result in less overall development on-site
as the historic residences on-site would be retained. Although these residences would remain, the
project would still construct the parking structure and other uses on-site with the potential to
block views in the area and alter the visual character in the vicinity. Therefore, the significant
and unavoidable project and cumulative impact regarding visual character would not be avoided.
2. Significant and Unavoidable Cultural Resource Impacts. The proposed project would result
in significant and unavoidable project-level and cumulative impacts to historic resources as a
result of the removal of the residences at 610 and 614 Monterey Street. Alternative 1 and 4 would
not remove the residences, as they would be preserved and retained ; therefore, the project-level
and cumulative impact to historic resources would not occur. Alternatives 2 and 3 would result
in the demolition of the on-site residences; therefore, impacts to historic resources would be
similar in comparison to the project. Under Alternatives 2 and 3, the project-level and cumulative
impact to historic resources would remain significant and unavoidable.
3. Significant and Unavoidable Noise Impact. The proposed project would cause noise impacts
as a result of construction activity associated with project development. Under Alternative l , no
development would occur; therefore, the significant and unavoidable construction noise impact
would be avoided. Alternatives 2 3, and 4 would result in a similar level of overall construction
activity on the project site, in conjunction with other development in the vicinity, and would
therefore result in similar project-level impacts associated with construction noise.
6.4 Environmentally Superior Alternative and Feasibility of Project Alternatives
1. Alternative 1 Finding: Alternative l (No Project, No Development) could be considered the
environmentally superior overall, since no development would occur and the site would remain
as is , and would not result in any significant environmental impact. However, Alternative 1 fails
to meet the City's objectives for the project area as well as any of the project objectives. As a
result, the City finds that Alternative 1 would be infeasible to implement.
2. Alternative 2 Finding: Alternative 2 (Project Plus Live/Work Units) would result in similar
environmental impacts when compared to the proposed Nipomo Palm Parking Structure project.
With a similar footprint as the proposed project, this alternative would result in similar impacts
pertaining to aesthetics, cultural resources, and transportation. Although this alternative does
meet some of the project objectives, Alternative 2 does not avoid any of the Class I impacts
associated with the proposed project and would result in increased noise impacts. The addition
of residences on the site would locate sensitive receptors directly adjacent to the parking structure.
R 10923
ATTACHMENT 7

Resolution No. 10923 (2018 Series)
Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations
Page 34
EXHIBIT A
Therefore, this alternative would require additional mitigation to reduce interior noise levels
below established thresholds. As a result, the City finds that Alternative 2 is not environmentally
superior to the proposed project.
3. Alternative 3 Finding: Among the development scenarios, Alternative 3 (Parking Structure,
Commercial, and Residential) would result in similar but increased environmental effects
compared to the proposed project. This alternative would result in increased environmental
impacts pertaining to noise, as well as to several issues that were dismissed as less than significant
or have no impact in the Initial Study prepared for the proposed project. This is due to the
residences and commercial units on-site that would introduce new residents to the city, who
would require utility services and recreational and public services, as well as generate new vehicle
trips from new residents. Alternative 3 would not avoid the Class I impacts related to historical
resources, cultural resources, and noise. As a result, the City finds that Alternative 3 would not
be environmentally superior to the proposed project.
4. Alternative 4 Finding: Alternative 4 (Historic Resource Preservation) is environmentally superior
to the proposed project because there would be a reduced overall site footprint. The impacts from
this alternative would be similar to the proposed project in the areas of aesthetics, noise, and
traffic. Alternative 4 would not reduce the project's Class I impacts in those categories to a level
below significance thresholds. However, Alternative 4 would eliminate direct and indirect
significant impacts to historical resources because the two contributing structures to the
Downtown Historic District and the linkage between properties in the district they provide would
remain in place. Alternative 4 would meet most of the project objectives by providing a minimum
of 400 parking spaces, offering a direct pedestrian connection from the structure to Monterey
Street, preserving the large oak tree on-site ,. and considering the contextual sensitivity of
surrounding properties (i.e., Hays-Lattimer adobe). However, it would not meet the objective of
providing the cultural use (theater). As a result, the City finds that Alternative 4 would not satisfy
the project objectives.
SECTION 7. STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS
7.1 Introduction
The Final EIR for the project identifies the following significant and unavoidable impacts of the
project:
1. The project would alter the existing visual character of the project site, and surrounding
vicinity.
2. Implementation of the project, in conjunction with other development in the area , would
increase the intensity of development and permanently alter the visual character of the
surrounding area.
3. The project would result in the demolition of two structures on the project site that are historic
resources, and adversely affect the Downtown Historic District.
4. The project would contribute to the cumulative loss of historic resources in the City by
removing two historic structures that contribute to the Downtown Historic District.

Page 35
EXHIBIT A
5. Temporary construction activity would create noise that could exceed City of San Luis
Obispo Municipal Code regulations , and mitigation may not be feasible to reduce the impact
to less than the applicable threshold.
For projects that would result in significant environmental impacts that cannot be avoided, CEQA
requires that the lead agency balance the benefits of these projects against the unavoidable
environmental risks in determining whether to approve the projects. If the benefits of these projects
outweigh the unavoidable impacts, those impacts may be considered acceptable (CEQA Guidelines
§ 15093( a]). CEQA requires that, before adopting such projects, the public agency adopt a Statement
of Overriding Considerations setting forth the reasons why the agency finds that the benefits of the
project outweigh the significant environmental effects caused by the project. This statement is
provided below.
7 .2 Required Findings
The City has incorporated all feasible mitigation measures into the project. Although these measures
will lessen the unavoidable impacts listed above, the measures will not fully avoid these impacts.
The City has also examined a reasonable range of alternatives to the project and has determined that
none of these alternatives is feasible or environmentally superior, nor would they satisfy the project
objectives to the same extent or greater as the project.
Alternative I would avoid all of the significant impacts of the project but would not achieve the
City s objectives for the project and is not considered feasible. Alternative 2 would be
environmentally similar to the project in most aspects but would result in greater impacts to noise
and is therefore environmentally inferior to the proposed project. Alternative 3 is environmentally
inferior to the proposed project, as it would result in increased impacts regarding noise and other
impacts such as public services , recreation, utilities and service systems. Alternative 4 is
environmentally superior to the proposed project in that eliminates significant and unavoidable
historic resources impacts related to demolition of the historic structures on-site. However,
Alternative 4 is inferior to the proposed project in terms of its ability to achieve City objectives for
the project, since the alternative would not include the theater building.
In preparing this Statement of Overriding Considerations, the City has balanced the benefits of the
proposed project against its unavoidable environmental risks . For the reasons specified below, the
City finds that the following considerations outweigh the proposed project's unavoidable
environmental risks:
I. New Parking Spaces. The Land Use Element of the General Plan addresses downtown
development, parking, and the development of cultural facilities in the city. Specifically, Policy
4.14 states "the City shall ensure there is a diversity of parking opportunities in the Downtown.
Any major increments in parking supply should take the form of structures, located at the edges
of the commercial core so people can walk rather than drive between points within the core."
Since the project would provide approximately 400 parking spaces in the downtown area, it
would directly satisfy this goal and adhere to Policy 4.14.
2. Downtown Concept Plan. In 2017, the City updated the Downtown Concept Plan to provide a
road map for future public projects and guidance for development in the downtown area. The
R 10923
ATTACHMENT 7
Packet Page 137
Resolution No. 10923 (2018 Series)

Page 36
EXHIBIT A
proposed project is located in Block 10 of the Plan, which states "a new parking structure on the
comer of Palm and Nipomo Streets is envisioned to include office mixed use along Nipomo
Street, the theater relocated along Monterey Street, and public use on a portion of the rooftop."
The proposed project would directly follow the guidance included in the Downtown Concept
Plan, by relocating the theater, constructing commercial use on the western boundary of the site
along Nipomo Street, and evaluating whether rooftop viewing areas are feasible as part of the
Planning Commission and Architectural Commission Review.
3. Increased Economic Activity. Development of the parking structure would generate an
economic benefit to the City via increased revenue from vehicle parking fees, which would then
be used to fund needed services in the city.
4. Downtown Residential. The project will support Program 6.12 of the Housing Element that
promotes downtown residential by allowing " ... flexible parking regulations for housing
development, especially in the Downtown Core (C-D Zone) including the possibilities of flexible
use of city parking facilities by Downtown residents, where appropriate, and reduced or no
parking requirements where appropriate guarantees limit occupancies to persons without motor
vehicles or wbo provide proof ofreserved, off-site parking. The structure will be part of the City's
Downtown Residential Overnight Program (Drop) that allows residents in the downtown area
access to the structures to park vehicles and promote affordability by design of residential units .
5. Public Use Plaza and Pedestrian Connection. The project includes a public use plaza area at
the comer ofNipomo and Monterey Streets. This plaza would be pedestrian-friendly and provide
a social use area for residents and tourists in the downtown area. In addition, the project would
provide a direct pedestrian connection from the structure to Monterey Street, allowing users to
easily navigate from the parking structure and theater to other downtown uses, consistent with
Circulation Element Policies 5.1.3 , 5.1.5 and 5.1.6.
6. San Luis Obispo Repertory Theatre. The project would support the development of an arts and
cultural center within the Downtown. Land Use Elements policies 5.2.1, 5.2.3 and 5.2.5 discuss
that the City will work with community groups to secure facilities for cultural and arts program
needs in the Downtown area. The project includes a portion of the site that would be utilized by
the SLO Repertory Theatre (formerly the San Luis Obispo Little Theatre) to construct a new
theatre space.
Accordingly, the City finds that the project's adverse, unavoidable environmental impacts are
outweighed by these considerable benefits.

SITE DATA
SUMMARY
The applicant, Libertine Brewing Company, has requested a modification to a previously approved
Minor Use Permit to allow late hour alcohol service and live entertainment for the existing
bar/tavern1, located at 1234 Broad Street in the Downtown Commercial (C-D) zone. The application
also includes a request to address the alcohol licensing to provide distilled spirits and private wine
tasting suites for the lease spaces along Pacific Street (Attachment 1, Project Description). The Zoning
Regulations Table 2-1 (Uses Allowed by Zone) states that a Minor Use Permit is required to establish
live entertainment uses or allow restaurants to service alcohol after the hours of 11:00 PM.
The subject property had been operating consistent with the previously approved hours 10:00 am to
10:00 pm, Sunday through Wednesday, and 10:00 am to 11:00 pm, Thursday through Saturday in
accordance with the hours established by the Planning Commission on January 14, 2015 (USE-0406-

1.0 BACKGROUND
In 2014, the applicant applied for a Minor Use Permit to convert a furniture store located at the project
site into a space intended to support a mix of uses including a restaurant, microbrewery, wine tasting,
and retail. The Community Development Director referred the Minor Use Permit to the Planning
Commission for two primary reasons: 1) the property is at the edge of the Downtown Core and
adjacent to an Office (O) Zone that allows residential uses; and 2) the proposed uses involve the
manufacturing and consumption of alcohol and the City Council has shown heightened awareness of
alcohol outlets in the Downtown (in 2012, the City Council adopted Zoning Amendments to address
alcohol-related problems in the Downtown).
Previous Planning Commission Hearing: On January 14, 2015, the Planning Commission considered
the project and approved the use permit on a 6:0 vote, with modified conditions to allow earlier hours
of operation (10:00 am rather than 11:00 am), and inclusion of Thursdays for later hours (11:00 pm).
The Commission also added a condition to prohibit alcohol uses from occupying the lease spaces
fronting Pacific Street (Attachment 2, Previous PC Staff Report, Resolution and Meeting Minutes).
2.0 COMMISSION’S PURVIEW
The Planning Commission’s role is to determine if the modifications to the existing use permit are
appropriate within the Downtown Zone in terms of its consistency with the City General Plan and
Zoning Regulations, and other applicable policy documents.
3.0 DISCUSSION
Staff has evaluated the project’s potential impacts on surrounding uses and has included conditions
of approval to address these potential impacts consistent with City Council direction for the regulation
of alcohol outlets2 (refer to discussion below). Additionally, staff evaluation of the proposed use and
recommended conditions of approval address potential impacts (security, noise, etc.) to ensure the
project is compatible with neighboring uses and is consistent with the General Plan, which designates
the Downtown for such uses (LUE Policy 4.3).
Alcohol Licensing: The applicant is requesting a change to the alcohol license type from California
Alcoholic Beverage (ABC) for the bar/tavern use, where previously approved for a Type 41 and Type
23, the applicant would like to apply for Type 75 ABC License3. This license type is similar to the
existing licenses in that it requires the establishment to be a bona fide eating place while allowing
brewing activities, however, the primary difference is that this license type allows the sale of distilled
spirits. The previous use permit included a condition prohibiting the service of hard liquor on site.
The type of alcohol license is not under the purview of the PC; however, ABC would not issue a
license type in which violates an existing conditional use permit. Staff recommends removing the
condition to allow the sale of distilled spirits because there are no provisions within the Zoning
Regulations which preclude types of alcohol services, and the conditions that have been established
as part of this use permit are sufficient in addressing impacts from all intended uses, consistent with
the intent of the 2012 Alcohol Outlet Regulations.
2 Ordinance No. 1578 (2012 Series): Amended Zoning Regulations to implement Alcohol Outlet Public Safety Strategies
and added Deemed Approved Alcoholic Beverage Sale Regulations, effective August 9, 2012.
3 ABC Type 75 License (Restaurant): Authorizes the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits for consumption on a bona
fide eating place plus a limited amount of brewing of beer. This license does not authorize the sale of alcoholic
beverages for consumption off the premises where sold. Minors are allowed on the premises
Packet Page 140
MOD-0610-2019 (1234 Broad Street)
Page 3
Uses: The 2014 application included a request to allow the operation of wine tasting rooms along the
lease spaces fronting Pacific Street; however, this was prohibited by the Planning Commission
through a condition of approval. The applicant would like to re-address this request as part of this
application. This application does not grant the operation of wine tasting rooms, the request is limited
to removing a previous condition to allow wine tasting uses to apply for independent Minor Use
Permits, per the Zoning Regulations Table 2-1 (Uses Allowed by Zone). Staff recommends removing
the condition as each Minor Use Permit will evaluate the impacts and site-specific concerns based on
the characteristics of the intended uses. Condition No. 13 has been provided to clarify that any future
tasting rooms operating independently from this bar/tavern use permit will require separate use permit
reviews in accordance with the Zoning Regulations.
Hours of Operation: As proposed, the restaurant expansion shall operate only as a restaurant with full
food service. Staff recommends Condition No. 3 and 4, adjusting the hours of operation by one hour
for weekdays and weekends (10:00 AM to 11:00 PM Sunday through Wednesday, and 10:00 am to
12:00 AM Thursday through Saturday), and ensuring that food service is available for customers
during all hours of operation (Attachment 1, Draft Resolution). Limiting the hours of operation and
providing full food service ensures consistency with the 2012 Alcohol Outlet Amendments in place
to reduce potential noise impacts and public safety problems associated with consumption of alcohol
in the Downtown.
Live Entertainment: The General Plan supports entertainment facilities, such as night clubs in the
downtown (LUE 4.3). Staff recognizes the potential for crowd and noise impacts on adjacent
establishments. In addition to compliance with the City’s Noise Ordinance, staff recommended
conditions of approval include the closing of windows and doors during live entertainment and
requiring a manager be present and available for contact by a City representative and/or adjacent
property owners/tenants during live entertainment events to minimize the need for police response to
minor issues.
Security: The applicant has provided a Security Plan that describes the responsibilities of staff that
will appropriately address crowd control measures during a live entertainment event (Attachment 2,
Security Plan). The Police Department and Fire Department have reviewed the application and have
no objections, provided that conditions of approval are imposed.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The project is categorically exempt under Class 1, Existing Facilities; Section 15301 of the State
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, because the project consists of the
modification of hours of operation for businesses within an existing building located within an
urbanized area that involves a negligible expansion of use to include small scale live entertainment
and late night hours of operation beyond existing conditions where noise levels are not permitted to
exceed thresholds established by the City’s Noise Ordinance, and will not have a significant effect on
the environment.

Outlet Regulations in place to reduce public safety problems associated with alcoholic
beverage sales and provide for properly maintained alcohol outlets so that negative impacts
generated by these activities are not harmful to the surrounding environment.

Page 2
3. As conditioned, the use will not result in jeopardizing or endangering the public health or
safety of persons residing or working in the surrounding area because the application is
consistent with the existing bar/tavern use that involves a negligible expansion of use to
include small scale live entertainment and late night hours of operation beyond existing
conditions.
4. As conditioned, the use will not result in violations to any applicable provision of any other
City, State, or Federal regulation, ordinance or statute because conditions of the use permit
have been established to regulate the operational characteristics to be consistent with existing
City, State and Federal regulations.
5. The use is compatible with and will not adversely affect the livability or appropriate
development of abutting properties and the surrounding neighborhood because conditions of
the use permit approval have been adopted that will minimize potential impacts such as noise
consistent with the limitations established under the City’s Noise Ordinance.

serve as the County’s hub for entertainment and cultural services.
SECTION 2. Environmental Review. The project is categorically exempt under Class 1,
Existing Facilities; Section 15301 of the State California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Guidelines, because the project consists of the modification of hours of operation for businesses
within an existing building located within an urbanized area that involves a negligible expansion

conditions where noise levels are not permitted to exceed thresholds established by the City’s
Noise Ordinance, and will not have a significant effect on the environment.
SECTION 3. Action. The project conditions of approval do not include mandatory code
requirements. Code compliance will be verified during the plan check process, which may include
additional requirements applicable to the project. The Planning Commission does hereby approve
the modifications to the existing Minor Use Permit (MOD-0610-2019), which modifies and
supersedes the previously approved Bar/Tavern Use Permit (USE-0406-2014), based on the
following conditions:
1. This Minor Use Permit shall be subsequently reviewed at a public Administrative Hearing if
the City receives 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 Minor Use Permit, or of City ordinances or
regulations or Police Department resources (calls for service) applicable to the property or the

Libertine Brewing Company
Modification of Existing Use Permit
Libertine Brewing Company(LBC) was approved by the Planning Commission on January 14, 2015 on a use permit for a
Brewpub, Brewery, Restaurant, and wine tasting at 1234 Broad Street. Many of our requested uses at this location were
either denied and/or restricted by conditions of approval. Having a successful track record for almost 5 years we are
requesting to remove some of these restrictions. Specifically, adding the selling of hard liquor at the restaurant area,
extending hours of operation, allowing live music in the restaurant and allowing alcohol serving uses at Pacific Street.
Overview
Libertine Brewing Company has been operating a tasting room, brewery, brewpub, and restaurant at 1234 Broad Street
since 2015. Since opening, LBC has operated under the approved use permit and complying with all conditions. We
have no violations with any regulatory agencies including ABC and the SLO Police Department. Additionally, we have
fostered no complaints since we have opened and if we did, we would go above and beyond to rectify the situation
and/or put a plan together to prevent a specific incident from happening again.
We provide a great gathering location for the public including city staff, downtown business owners and employees,
locals and out of town tourists. We have a unique premise amenities, great location off the downtown strip, following
of locals, and provide tourist to sample the central coast craft markets.
We have had acoustic bands/duos play during the week and sometime weekends periodically. In addition, we have had
record playing DJs during the day for our brunch. This has been a huge hit for the locals and visitors. We have never had
a noise complaint, nor have we ever had any unruly behavior resulting. We have always valued our neighbor’s
rights(Both Commercial and Residential) and have developed great working relationships with our surrounding
neighbors.
LBC has continuously been involved with the community by food can drives, beach clean ups, emergency relief aid, city
food/beverage events, etc. LBC has contributed time, product, and money to countless charities and non-profits
including the downtown association, chamber of commerce, various school districts, big brothers/big sisters, sea
sheppard, casa, performing arts center, ecoslo, and many more. We set the example downtown businesses to give back
to the community even though we are considered an alcohol establishment.
Overall, LBC has proved that an alcohol establishment can exist on the outer edge of the downtown area. We feel
Libertine is fit to cater to this thriving and expanding downtown progression. I also would like to also point out that
Packet Page 147
Libertine does not cater to the late night undesirable crowds, which the City and community has grown to consider
unfavorable.
Lastly, the main reason we are asking for these modifications is that our customers and locals are asking for these
changes at our location. We should not be tied to conditions that the community does not favor and to conditions that
were set almost 5 years ago. San Luis Obispo is growing and evolving. We will be starting a petition to show the
community support of these modifications.
Requested Modifications to Use Permit
Libertine Brewing Company is requesting the following modifications of conditions to our current use permit (USE-0406-
2014) which was approved on January 14, 2015. The four following requested modifications are:
1. Selling of hard liquor. LBC is requesting approval to sell hard liquor in the restaurant area. Producing distilled
spirits have become a fast growing business throughout the county. Its popularity has started a trend that has
increased tourism in the Central Coast. Since we are a Craft Brewery serving a majority of local craft beer and
wine, it is our evolution to start carrying the local craft spirits. Having on outlet such as ours to serve and
promote this local growing industry is a next step in San Luis Obispo’s Development to support the local craft
spirit movement. LBC has consulted and received assistance from ABC on the means to switch our Type 41
license to a Type 75, which is essentially the same Brewery (Type 41) license, however, allows the serving of
hard alcohol with certain restrictions. LBC is and always will be a brewery first, however, this approval will give
the SLO location the ability to serve to its patrons with the full spectrum of craft creations. This is just the
evolution of Libertine in SLO to be one of the only destination locations of this sort. We are requesting this
modification at this time as the Type 75 license will no longer be available as of December 31, 2019. The ABC
will not be approving anymore applications for this license after the first of the year. Libertine will like to take
advantage of this opportunity before it is no longer available.
2. Hours of Operation. LBC is requesting approval to extend our hours of operation. Our current hours are:
10 AM to 10 PM, Sunday through Wednesday
10 AM to 11 PM, Thursday through Saturday
We are requesting the following extension of hours to:
10 AM to 11 PM, Sunday through Wednesday
10 AM to 12 AM, Thursday through Saturday
San Luis Obispo downtown is expanding with more real estate development, more tourism, more residents, etc.
It is only appropriate to offer a variety of options for customers to chose from. There is a substantial older and
professional population that would remain downtown to midnight if other options where available than the
downtown strip of college type bars. LBC can offer a different environment for customers to do such and we
would like to satisfy our customers.
3. Lease Spaces along Pacific Street to include Alcohol Serving Uses. LBC is requesting approval to allow alcohol
serving uses at the lease spaces along Pacific Street. At the time of our approval, the planning commission
deemed that the property had too much alcohol in one property. This mindset is leaving SLO behind as other
Cities such as Paso Robles, Buellton, Solvang, Avila, Arroyo Grande, Morro Bay, and Los Olivos have
implemented wine tasting in a downtown environment successfully. We ask that SLO consider these uses and
trust that Libertine will make this successful in our downtown area.
4. Allowing Live Music in the Restaurant. LBC is requesting approval to allow live music in the restaurant area.
Please reference the plan with the Stage Drawing. We are requesting live music a few times a month. Sunday
through Thursday no later than 9PM and Friday through Saturday no later than 11 PM. LBC has never had a
noise complaint regarding our music or our events that we host. LBC Management has always been very
responsible in managing all aspect of our business, including music that is played currently at the location. Our
Packet Page 148
operation has never required the need of bouncers o security personal as this is not the crowd we are catering
to. Our crowd has typically been local professionals, families, and tourists. Although we are on the outskirts of
downtown, LBC believes this offers a unique establishment to enjoy music outside the typical downtown core.
Day of the week for potential Live Music – Friday or Saturday
Time of Music – 3 hours in duration and conclude no later than 11 PM
Summary
To summarize, Libertine Brewing Company is an established restaurant/pub that brings a different setting and
atmosphere to the downtown core. We have satisfied and abided by all the conditional of approval set by of Planning
Commission in January 2015. We have proved that a restaurant/alcohol establishment can exist and thrive with its
surrounding neighbors on the outskirts of the downtown core.
San Luis is growing and so should the downtown by offering establishments with all the amenities desired by patrons.
The City should support solid local businesses with a solid track record by approving their needs to serve the wants of
their customers.
These modifications will not only provide a single true destination of local craft spirts, beer and wine to enhance our
local tourism, but will increase the city tax revenues and increase employee counts to service the increase in customers.
Not to mention, enhance the infrastructure of San Luis Obispo to attract additional professional businesses and
employees which crave this type of full service atmosphere. Libertine will now be a complete full service location that
will truly have something for all customers.
We appreciate the contributions/assistance of the Planning Commission Staff to communicate certain requirements that
would help us in the development and approval of these modifications.

Downtown Safety and Security Plan for Live Music
1234 Broad Street
Venue Entrance:
Our venue will have one entrance, it faces Broad Street. Our Venue has 2 designated fire exits for our
customers in the restaurant area. This would be the front entrance door and the patio door facing Broad
street. Each of these exits are designated with panic hardware, emergency directional signage, and battery
powered lighting. We have just one room where customers are allowed. We have additional exits, however,
customers are not allowed behind our food service area or the other suites. There is a separate emergency
exit located at back of the kitchen for employees, if needed.
Procedures:

under the influence and not provide service of alcohol.
Emergency procedure- In the event that a patron or staff member is in need of emergency medical aid,
attendants will notify proper authorities as well as the Manager on Duty. In the case of an unruly patron,
attendants will notify proper authorities and escort the patron out the front doors. In the event of a fire or
Packet Page 150
other disaster, hosts will escort all occupants to exits located at the front and back of the facility in a safe and
orderly manner.
Staffing- In addition to the Host position on Friday and Saturday nights, there will be a minimum of 8 other
staff members working under the supervision of a Manager on Duty.

- Liaison with police
Implementation:
Implementation of this safety and security plan will be carried out by all staff and supervisors. The Manager
and supervisors are responsible for training all staff and attendants in all systems and procedures.
Additionally, the Manager and supervisors will conduct regular tests/audits of systems and procedures with
staff attendants periodically.

PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT
SUBJECT: Review of restaurant/brewpub, wine tasting facilities and retail lease spaces at 1234 Broad
Street.
PROJECT ADDRESS: 1234 Broad Street BY: Erik Berg-Johansen, Assistant Planner
Phone Number: 781-7573
e-mail: eberg@slocity.org
FILE NUMBER: USE-0406-2014 FROM: Doug Davidson, Deputy Director
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Draft Resolution (Attachment 1) which approves the project,
based on findings, and subject to conditions.
SITE DATA
Applicant Eric and Rodessa Newton;
1234 Broad Street, LLC
Zoning Downtown Commercial (C-D)
General Plan General Retail
Site Area 9,000 square feet
Environmental
Status
Categorically exempt from environmental
review under CEQA Guidelines section
15303 (New Construction or Conversion
of Small Structures).
SUMMARY
The applicant proposes to convert an existing furniture store at 1234 Broad Street to a space that will
support a mix of uses including a restaurant, microbrewery, wine tasting and retail. The project will not
increase the size or floor area of the building, but will result in a higher occupancy and parking
requirement. The project also includes an exterior remodel of the south and west facades (facing
Pacific and Broad Streets, respectively).
Staff has provided an analysis of the proposed project (Section 4.0 below) and recommends approval
of the proposed project with conditions of approval that address potential impacts (noise, lighting, etc.)
and make the project compatible with neighboring uses and the General Plan.

1.0 COMMISSION’S PURVIEW
At the discretion of the Community Development Director, an Administrative Use Permit may be
referred to the Planning Commission1. Both the brewery (bar/tavern) and wine tasting aspects of the
proposed project require an Administrative Use Permit. The Community Development Director has
referred this review to the Planning Commission for two primary reasons: 1) the property is at the edge
of the Downtown Core and adjacent to an Office (O) Zone that allows residential uses; and 2) the
proposed uses involve the manufacturing and consumption of alcohol and City Council has shown
heightened awareness of alcohol outlets in the downtown (in 2012, the City Council adopted Zoning
Amendments to address alcohol-related problems in the Downtown).
The Planning Commission’s role is to review the project in terms of its consistency with the General
Plan, Zoning Regulations, and applicable City standards. The final building design will be reviewed by
the Architectural Review Commission (ARC).
2.0 PROJECT INFORMATION
2.1 Site Information/Setting
The subject property is located on the corner of Marsh and Pacific Streets (Attachment 2, Vicinity
Map) in the Downtown Commercial (C-D) zone. The property is adjacent to a retail use (CVS) and
a relatively small office building. Other uses in the vicinity include retail, restaurants, offices and
residential. The 9,000 square foot property contains a one-story, 8,737 square foot structure that
will have no change in floor area.

2.2 Project Description
The proposed project includes the following significant features:
1. Uses: Combination of restaurant/brewpub, brewery, retail, and wine tasting. All elements will
feature local artisans and retailers.
2,270 SF brewery and storage area
2,544 SF restaurant
One retail lease space (250 sq. ft.) with direct access to restaurant and Broad Street
1 Zoning Regulations Section 17.58.030.A3 (Procedures): The Director may refer an Administrative Use Permit to the
Planning Commission, pursuant to the requirements in subsection B of this section, when he/she determines the
application involves a major policy issue or public controversy that would be resolved more suitably by the Commission.
Packet Page 155
USE-0406-2014 (1234 Broad Street)
Page 3
Four lease spaces with potential for retail or offsite wine tasting (3/4 lease spaces have
direct access to restaurant; all lease spaces have direct access to Pacific Street). Offsite wine
tasting establishments shall operate in accordance with the characteristics defined in the
Zoning Regulations2.
2. Hours of operation: 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM. (weeknights, 11:00 p.m. weekends)
3. Design: Remodel existing façade with a contemporary design
No new floor area (business will operate within existing building)
New fencing to enclose the proposed patio seating area
Roll-up doors along Pacific Street to provide access to retail/wine tasting lease spaces.
4. Parking: No onsite parking provided – increased parking demand to be offset with payment of
in-lieu fees.
Please see Attachment 3 (Project Description) and Attachment 4 (Project Plans) for more details.
3.0 PROJECT ANALYSIS
The following section analyzes the use permit requirement, parking and circulation impacts,
circulation, and project’s consistency with the Zoning Regulations and General Plan.
3.1 Use Permit
The original proposal was to establish a bar/tavern as the primary use with minimal food service.
The Director elevated the Administrative Use Permit application to Planning Commission Review
due to the project’s scale and proximity to residential uses. This original proposal to establish a
bar/tavern was not supported by staff; the applicants took direction and changed their proposal to
establish a use that is focused on a full service restaurant. The proposed restaurant will operate
under a Type 41 California Alcoholic Beverage (ABC) License, which requires the business to act
as a bona fide eating place. The proposed brewery will operate under a Type 23 ABC License
(and as a separate business from the restaurant). These licenses are described below as excerpted
from the ABC regulations:
Table 3.1.1
License Description
41
ON SALE BEER & WINE – EATING PLACE - (Restaurant) Authorizes the sale of beer and
wine for consumption on or off the premises where sold. Distilled spirits may not be on
the premises (except brandy, rum, or liqueurs for use solely for cooking purposes).
Must operate and maintain the licensed premises as a bona fide eating place. Must
maintain suitable kitchen facilities, and must make actual and substantial sales of
meals for consumption on the premises. Minors are allowed on the premises.
2 Wine tasting room – off site. A satellite wine tasting room associated with a licensed winery serving only those
wines it produces in 1-ounce tastes or an amount approved by Alcohol and Beverage Control for tasting
purposes. Only one satellite wine tasting room is permitted per licensed winery. Wine tasting establishments
serving wines from multiple wineries are separately defined as a Bar/Tavern.
Packet Page 156
USE-0406-2014 (1234 Broad Street)
Page 4
License Description
23
SMALL BEER MANUFACTURER - (Brew Pub or Micro-brewery) Authorizes the same
privileges and restrictions as a Type 013. A brewpub is typically a very small brewery
with a restaurant. A micro-brewery is a small-scale brewery operation that typically is
dedicated solely to the production of specialty beers, although some do have a
restaurant or pub on their manufacturing plant.
While a Use Permit is not required for restaurants that sell beer and wine before 11 PM, the
project warrants review by the Planning Commission due to the issues associated with operation
of the brewpub (functioning similar to a bar/tavern), onsite brewing, and wine tasting. In
summary, the Director has required Planning Commission review due to the proposed “hybrid”
use, on-premise alcohol sales, and proximity to sensitive receptors such as single-family homes
and neighborhoods.
3.2 Proximity to Sensitive Receptors
Staff has compiled the following spatial information regarding the relationship between the
proposed establishment at 1234 Broad Street and the surrounding neighborhood:
Table 3.2.1
Sensitive Receptor Distance Between Subject
Site / Receptor (ft.)*
Medium Density Residential (R-2) Zone 275
Nearest home in the R-2 Zone 400
Office (O) Zone 50
Nearest Residential Use 75
Old Town Historic District 275
Downtown Historic District 250
*Approximate measured distance is linear (as the crow flies)
The subject site is located approximately one block from the Medium Density (R-2) zone and the
Old Town Historic district. There is a single-family residence located just west of the subject
property at 739 Pacific Street. This property is located in the Office (O) zone, which allows
residential uses without a planning use permit (allowed by right). Another residential use in the
Office zone, an affordable housing project, exists approximately 300 feet southwest of the project
site at 655 Pacific Street.
Table 3.2.1 also shows that the nearest home in the R-2 zone is 400 feet away from the project
site (despite the R-2 zone existing only 275 feet away); this contradiction is due to the presence of
a non-residential use on the nearest R-2 parcel. This parcel is located at 1344 Nipomo Street and
is occupied by St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church.
3 Type 01 License: BEER MANUFACTURER - (Large Brewery) Authorizes the sale of beer to any person holding a
license authorizing the sale of beer, and to consumers for consumption on or off the manufacturer’s licensed premises.
Without any additional licenses, may sell beer and wine, regardless of source, to consumers for consumption at a bona
fide public eating place on the manufacturer’s licensed premises or at a bona fide eating place contiguous to the
manufacturer’s licensed premises. May conduct beer tastings under specified conditions (Section 23357.3). Minors are
allowed on the premises.

USE-0406-2014 (1234 Broad Street)
Page 5
3.3 Noise Impacts
While there is a single-family residence in close proximity to the site, the relatively early closing
time of all proposed uses would be expected to mitigate disturbances. As conditioned, the
restaurant/brewpub would close at 10 PM on weeknights and 11 PM on weekends. It has also
been conditioned that all windows and doors (including the proposed roll-up doors) will close
nightly at 9 PM ; this will further reduce noise impacts from these tenant spaces as well as any
noise spillover (exiting through the rolling doors) from the restaurant/brewpub. Condition #4
(closing times) and Condition #6 (ambient entertainment) have been included to mitigate any
potential noise generation, especially during sleeping hours.
It should be considered that the proposed business is located in the Downtown Commercial (C-D)
zone, which was designed to allow restaurants, bars and entertainment uses in a pedestrian-
oriented atmosphere. More intense noise generating uses such as nightclubs or music venues (e.g.
SLO Brew) require a Use Permit to evaluate the greater impacts of such uses on surrounding
neighborhoods. In terms of noise generation, the proposed use is less intense than a different use
that could potentially be permitted at this location.
3.4 Alcohol Related Incidents
According to research completed by the City’s Community Development and Police
Departments, approximately 60% of alcohol events and nearly half of the arrests occur between
11:00 PM to 2:00 AM. These safety statistics became the basis of the 2012 Amendments for
requiring restaurants that serve alcohol after 11:00 p.m. to obtain a Use Permit. The proposed
restaurant/brewpub will be closed during the high-incident late night hours. In addition, the
proposed business will not offer hard alcohol and is not a nightclub or music venue; as a result,
the establishment would not be expected to attract large crowds.
3.5 Parking
The required number of parking spaces for the existing furniture store was 1 space per 500 SF of
gross floor area (8,737 / 500 = 18 spaces). The parking calculation for the proposed use is
outlined on the following page in Table 3.5.1:
Table 3.5.1
Use Sq. Footage Parking Required # Spaces
Restaurant / Kitchen / Patio / Restrooms 4,009 1 space / 350 sq. ft. 11.5

USE-0406-2014 (1234 Broad Street)
Page 6
In the Downtown Core zone businesses may elect to pay for required parking spaces with an in-
lieu fee (instead of providing the parking onsite). Because the subject site is built out, the
applicant does not have the ability to provide parking onsite and must therefore pay for the net
increase in parking spaces required. As provided in Condition #2, the applicants shall pay the in-
lieu fee for three (3) parking spaces.
The subject site is two blocks (500 feet) from the nearest parking garage located on the corner of
Chorro and Pacific Streets. Parking meters exist on all adjacent blocks; the meters are enforced
Monday-Saturday, 9 AM – 6 PM and Sunday, 1 PM – 6 PM. No parking district exists in the Old
Town neighborhood; the residents of this neighborhood were surveyed in 2007 and the majority
opposed formation of a parking district (and therefore no district was formed).
Analysis: Parking demand for the use is not expected to create significant impacts to the
neighborhood. The majority of properties in the vicinity contain office or service uses that operate
within the normal business hours of 9 AM – 5 PM, Monday-Friday. The expected peak hours of
the proposed use are 5 PM – 10 PM on weekdays, and 11 AM – 11 PM on weekends. The
expected peak hours are not expected to overlap with the normal operating hours of nearby
businesses.
3.6 Circulation
Since there is no major live entertainment proposed (besides ambient music), it is not expected
that the business will need a patron queue. However, Condition #12 requires a patron queue to be
placed along Broad Street (which prohibits a queue along Pacific Street where there are sensitive
noise receptors such as a single-family residence). It has also been noted that the sidewalk along
Pacific Street is relatively narrow; during the ARC review process the City’s Transportation
Division will work with the applicant to resolve any conflicts with pedestrian circulation
(Condition #19).
3.7 Consistency with the General Plan
The 2014 General Plan Land Use and Circulation Elements (LUCE) update includes new policies
and programs that relate to uses in the Downtown:
o New Policy - Downtown As Focal Point: The Downtown should remain the focus for nighttime
entertainment, cultural events and related activities. It should be a pleasant and safe place at
all times.
o New Policy - Street-Level Diversity: City shall promote a healthy mix of downtown street-
level businesses that emphasizes retail stores, specialty shops and food service rather than
bars or taverns.
The proposed use is consistent with these General Plan policies for the Downtown because: 1) the
use focuses nighttime entertainment (a brewpub and wine tasting) in the Downtown; and 2) the
proposal incorporates a diverse mix of uses including food service, specialty retail and wine
tasting that will enhance tourism and the pedestrian experience in the Downtown. The use is also
consistent with General Plan Policy 4.0.16, which states that restaurants and stores that contribute
to pedestrian traffic should be located on street level in the Downtown.

4.0 OTHER DEPARTMENT COMMENTS
Comments from the other departments have been incorporated into the recommended resolution as
conditions of approval and/or code requirements.
5.0 CONCLUSION
The applicant’s proposal to open an artisan food and beverage establishment including a
restaurant/brewpub, beer brewing facility, wine tasting and retail uses is consistent with the Zoning
Regulations and compatible with surrounding development. No hard liquor will be offered, full food
service will be provided in accordance with the Type 41 California Alcoholic Beverage Control
license, and the business will close at 10:00 p.m. on weeknights and 11:00 p.m. on weekends. These
facts paired with the upscale nature of the business make the use consistent with the neighborhood and
surrounding development. In order to address any potential impacts (noise, security, etc.), staff has
recommended conditions of approval to maximize the project’s compatibility with neighboring uses
and the General Plan.
6.0 ALTERNATIVES
6.1. Continue the project with direction to the applicant and staff on pertinent issues.
6.2. Deny the project based on findings of inconsistency with the General Plan, Zoning Regulations
and applicable City policy.

CALL TO ORDER/PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
ROLL CALL: Commissioners Hemalata Dandekar, Michael Draze, John Fowler,
Ronald Malak, Vice - Chairperson Michael Multari, and Chairperson
John Larson
Absent: Commissioner William Riggs
Staff: Community Development Deputy Director Doug Davidson, Assistant
Planner Erik Berg- Johansen, Assistant City Attorney Jon
Ansolabehere, and Recording Secretary Diane Clement
ACCEPTANCE OF THE AGENDA:
The agenda was accepted as presented.
PUBLIC COMMENTS ON NON - AGENDA ITEMS:
There were no comments made from the public.
PUBLIC HEARINGS:
1. 1108 Fletcher Avenue. USE - 0424 -2014: Establish a 602- square foot secondary
dwelling unit in an existing second floor of a detached three -car garage; build new
316- square foot deck on the second floor of detached garage, including a
categorical exemption from CEQA; R -1 -PD zone; Russell Swanagon, applicant.
Kyle Bell)
Community Development Deputy Director Davidson presented the staff report,
recommending adoption of the Draft Resolution allowing a hobby room conversion to a
secondary dwelling unit that exceeds 450 square feet, subject to findings and
conditions.
Commr. Larson disclosed an ex parte communication from Carol Florence concerning
this project. The other Commissioners present indicated that they had also received the
same communication.
Emily Ewer, Oasis Associates, representing the applicant, requested the removal of
Conditions 8, 9, 10, and 11; and the modification of Condition 7. She noted that
Condition 8 is unnecessary because the property has existing trees and landscaping;
Condition 9 is not needed because the existing driveway is in excellent condition and
built to the standards of the time when the lot was developed; Condition 10 is not
relevant because this project is a Secondary Dwelling Unit (SDU), not a multifamily unit,
and the ability of the property owner to absorb the impact fees of more than $10,000 is
limited; and Condition 11 is not needed because installing separate meters would
merely replace a single metering system that works for both dwellings on the property.
Packet Page 166
Planning Commission Minutes
January 14, 2015
Page 2
She requested that Condition 7 should be modified because Condition 13 makes it
redundant and that the applicant would prefer a condition or finding explicitly stating that
a shared utility meter would be acceptable.
PUBLIC COMMENTS:
Commr. Larson stated that one letter had been received in opposition to the project
because approval would set an inappropriate precedent.
There were no comments made from the public.
COMMISSION COMMENTS:
Deputy Director Davidson stated that there was a typographical error on page PC1 — 7
in Condition #2 that should read "Section 17.21.010 ". He noted that the City agrees to
strike Condition 8 after staff made a trip to the site and found the trees and landscaping
in good health. He explained that Condition 9 is necessary because the ten percent
side slope of the sidewalk portion of the driveway approach needs to be reduced to two
percent for ADA compliance. He added that the City Engineer wants this Condition to
remain in the Resolution and he acknowledged the necessity of a piecemeal approach
to gaining compliance citywide. He stated that staff recommends that Condition 10 also
remain because, although this is an SDU, the fee schedule breaks down costs by
square footage, not by whether the unit is a multifamily or secondary dwelling. He
added that the fees for a similar project on Augusta Street were paid by the homeowner
and these fees are far less than new construction. He proposed some modifications for
Conditions 7 and 11 and noted that the separate meter might be required just for the fire
sprinklers.
Commr. Multari asked if there would be a fee for square footage less than 450.
Deputy Director Davidson stated that the fee would be lower because size, not exact
use, that determines the fee.
Commr. Multari stated he was confused about the need for separate meters and why
having two would be a public good.
Commr. Larson suggested that a separate meter might be necessary if the water is
turned off for the main residence, it would still be available for the SDU. He noted it
could be a safety issue.
Commr. Draze stated he is concerned about the six -foot wide side deck that overlooks
the deck on the adjacent property. He pointed out that access to the main deck could
be from the room next to the deck, rather than via a side deck.
Commr. Multari stated he was still confused about the driveway slope issue.
Ms. Ewer stated that pushing back four feet into the property to correct the slope would
require an unnecessary major rebuild of the driveway. She noted that there is a
Packet Page 167
Planning Commission Minutes
January 14, 2015
Page 3
sprinkler system in the garage and all that is needed is a pipe to connect to the second
story. In response to the overlook issue, she stated that the adjacent property has most
of its outdoor amenities to the west, away from the proposed deck on this property.
Commr. Larson stated that he likes Commr. Draze's suggestion to have access to the
deck from the south side of the SDU. He noted that this is a large property so there are
other ways to meet the open space requirement besides a deck.
Commr. Multari stated he does not think a separate meter is needed. He supported the
removal of Condition 8 and the modification of Condition 10 to state that the project will
pay all fees required by ordinance. He added that he is undecided about the rebuilding
of the driveway and noted it is important that the City incrementally make the community
more accessible and the City is allowing the applicant an SDU but, in this case, the
requirement may be excessive. He agreed that the deck on the west side is a detriment
to the neighborhood and unnecessary; he suggested deleting it. He pointed out that the
site is 12,000 square feet so the unit could be considered a second home, not a
secondary dwelling unit.
Commr. Larson supported Commr. Multari's clarification on Condition 10,
Commr. Dandekar stated that the west side deck is very close to the property line. She
supported having the Utility Department determine whether one or two meters are
needed because it has the authority to provide the service.
Commr. Malak stated he was also undecided about the ADA issue. He noted that it
may be more of a benefit to the homeowner to have separate meters because they
could shut off the water to one unit if necessary but he could go either way on that. He
supported deleting Condition 10 and not classifying this SDU with multifamily units for
fees.
Commr. Fowler noted that the City has already relaxed the rules to encourage SDUs
and he does not want to waive any fees. He added that the applicant is getting an
additional unit. He stated that he does not like the deck on the west side, he supports
grandfathering in the driveway as an existing use that would be prohibitive to alter, and
he does not think a separate meter is needed.
Commr. Dandekar stated that it would be very difficult to reduce the driveway slope so
she supports removing Condition 9. Concerning Condition 10, she agreed that SDUs
should be encouraged but she supports applying the code uniformly to avoid
inconsistencies. She noted that she would have liked to see the fee structure to
determine the impact.
Commr. Draze stated he is uncomfortable with the Commission waiving fees and he
likes Commr. Multari's "as required by ordinance" language. He suggested possibly
eliminating the fire sprinklers if that would require a larger meter.
Deputy Director Davidson stated that the Fire Codes require sprinklers in this situation.
Packet Page 168
Planning Commission Minutes
January 14, 2015
Page 4
Commr. Draze noted that, if ADA compliance is not going to be required, the
Commission needs to include conditions stating so.
Commr. Malak stated that he received a letter asking if it is correct that SDUs are not
allowed in planned developments.
Deputy Director Davidson explained that the intent was to prohibit SDUs in small
planned unit developments or condominium developments and, while technically this
property is in a PD zone, the 12,000 square -foot lot size is more like a single - family
neighborhood that should not preclude an SDU.
Commr. Multari made a motion, seconded by Commr. Fowler, and discussion ensued.
Commr. Dandekar asked to hear staff wording for separate metering
Deputy Director Davidson stated the wording was "as determined by the Utilities
Director as to the necessity of a separate meter." He noted it is a standard requirement,
but is not always required based on circumstances.
Commr. Dandekar stated she does not want to preempt what the Utilities Department
might be trying to achieve. She noted that, if in future these two units are occupied by
different people, separate meters could allow the Utilities Department to act on just one.
Commr. Larson stated that since one unit has to be owner - occupied, whoever is paying
the water bill is there and separate metering does not provide substantive benefit. He
agreed with dropping at least the west facing deck and noted there are many ways to
sort out the open space requirement. He supported deleting the ADA requirement
because it seems overly onerous with minimal benefit.
Commr. Multari noted that if separate meters were a City requirement, it would not show
up as a condition, so there is some discretion for the Commission. He agreed that, since
the owner has to be on -site, separate metering is not as important.
In response to a question from Commr. Dandekar, Deputy Director Davidson stated that
just one meter was required for the property on Augusta similar to this property.
Commr. Dandekar stated she was leery of taking this decision and would prefer to leave
it open to the Utilities Director to make a similar decision.
Commr. Larson stated that if there was a compelling reason to have two meters, the
Commission would hear about it and he is confident that were the SDU in the same
building, there would be one meter so the separate building is what is driving this. He
added that he can see some logic to turning the water to one building on or off but a
meter is not needed to do that. He concluded that, if two meters are not a code
requirement, he is fairly comfortable eliminating that condition.
There were no further comments made from the Commission

The motion passed on a 6:0 vote.
2. 1234 Broad Street. USE - 0406 -2014: Request to establish a brew pub with full
food service, retail uses, and wine tasting, including a categorical exemption from
CEQA; C -D zone; 1234 Broad Street LLC, applicant. (Erik Berg- Johansen)
Assistant Planner Berg- Johansen presented the staff report, recommending adoption of
the Draft Resolution which approves the project, based on findings, and subject to
conditions.
Eric Newton, applicant, requested some changes in the conditions: modify the opening
time to 10 a.m., extend closing time to 11 p.m. weekdays with closing of the doors at 10
p.m. He noted that escrow is subject to project approval.
Rodessa Newton, applicant, SLO, stated that the project will be aiming at a 30+
demographic that does not want to go to a college bar, something which is lacking in the
City. She noted that the project has a website: 1234broadstreet.com. She presented
the Commission with a folder of supportive comments from neighbors.
PUBLIC COMMENTS:
Dustin Pires, Form Design Build, stated he is a part of the design team and is speaking
on behalf of the applicants. He stated that as a young professional, he agrees this will
be a great place to go and to take children and that it will not be loud.
Neil Higgins, SLO, a Cuesta College business /economics professor, supported the
project because it will be very good economically and will provide new jobs and new
opportunities for small business owners. He noted that it will appeal to a different
demographic and income base, and will help build tourism.

David Baldwin, Atascadero, stated he is a lifelong resident of the county and supports
the project, likes the layout and fagade, and thinks this project will be a good fit with the
downtown. He noted that the applicants have committed to working with locals.
Tyler Clark, Grover Beach, brewer at the Libertine Pub and Brewery in Morro Bay,
stated that the craft beer industry is exploding in popularity and is aimed at the 25 -45
year old demographic. He added that this type of beer is more about the nuances of the
taste and less about simply drinking.
Lawrence Duterte, SLO, brewer, stated he just graduated from Chico State and helped
start a similar place in Chico which became a melting pot of different people. He
supported the project.
Louise Justice, SLO, stated she agrees with Save Our Downtown (SOD) that there are
enough restaurants downtown and she doubts people will park in the parking garage,
but will park in the neighborhood and infringe upon residents. She asked about
containment of brewery odors and for a guarantee that this project will not turn into a
college bar. She gave Black Sheep as an example of how that has happened before.
Elisabeth Abrahams, SLO, a member of SOD, stated the applicants' presentation has
her excited by the possibility of an artisan center containing a brew pub. She requested
conditions that would result in artisan work beyond just food and alcohol, such as art
work, jewelry, etc., being included. She stated she does not want another SLO Brew
and is afraid this project will morph into another bar.
Joseph Abrahams, SLO, stated he agrees with Mrs. Abrahams. He suggested that this
be an artisan center with a section that could morph into a decent grocery store. He
asked if the project leadership really means to attract the older population and artisans
through exhibits, seminars, etc., by having the project be a cultural hub.
David Brodie, SLO, stated that the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
says alcohol outlets are over - concentrated in the downtown core and that every time the
City gets a bar, it loses a shop. He added that shop owners are confronted with
increasing rents and the downtown is now one great big bar. He recommended others
go downtown about ten p.m. to see what is going on and cited such things as public
urination and drunken behavior. He stated that this project has a nice plan but
questioned why it dwells on alcohol. He noted that young people cannot be prevented
from coming to this site and this project is near Old Town residences.
Mike Bianchi, SLO, representing Firestone Walker, stated he is in support of this local
brewery that will be great for tourism. He added that he supports the craft beer
movement and having somewhere to go to experience it.
Trevor Tyler, Los Angeles, former manager of Eureka in SLO and current beverage
director for California Eureka outlets, stated that the perception of beer is changing and
serving alcohol to get people intoxicated is not the goal. He added that the price point
will be above what the average student can afford and the demographic will be 25 -60
Packet Page 171
Planning Commission Minutes
January 14, 2015
Page 7
year -olds. He stated he experienced similar push -back when Eureka opened and, as a
competitor, he supports this project which will bring a lot of tourism.
Sean Zurbriggen, Morro Bay, stated he supports the project and noted that at his
business, he does not have trouble with over - serving or intoxication.
Amy Kardel, SLO, Clever Ducks, stated that she supports this as a classy improvement
and the demographic matches those who work in her building. She added that this
does not sound like it will contribute to the alcohol problem and could help displace the
homeless people who camp out along Pacific Street at night. She noted that the early
closing hour is appropriate.
There were no further comments made from the public.
COMMISSION COMMENTS:
In response to questions from Commrs. Larson and Fowler, Mr. Newton stated that he
is aiming to have artisan food, maybe an artist, and maybe some rotation in and out of
the lease spaces for different products. He noted that the roll -up doors are to allow
people walking by to see what is going on inside, and the doorways between the lease
spaces and the main space will be open to create a marketplace atmosphere. He
stated there will be two roll -up doors back -to -back for trash and storage.
Commr. Malak stated that the sidewalk on the Pacific side is very narrow with very little
room for the out - swinging exterior doors. He asked how that will work with those doors.
Mr. Newton stated that he understands that the sidewalk is narrow and in bad condition,
so there may be some modification to the sidewalk required.
Commr. Malak noted that the applicants originally wanted to do a pub but, due to
licensing and City policies, were encouraged to provide food service. He asked if the
menu is full service or bar food.
Mr. Newton replied that they had to propose a restaurant to gain staff's support but they
were always going to have artisan food such as pizzas, salads, and gourmet dishes
and, hopefully, there will be artisans selling other food, too.
Commr. Draze noted that Villa Auto Repair and the furniture store had little need for
parking and he would love to require more parking for this use. He stated that the lease
spaces concern him but not the roll -up doors and that the out - swinging exterior doors
cannot open that way due to a condition. He wondered how much will be going on in
the lease spaces that will affect the neighbors and if those spaces will end up becoming
an expansion of the restaurant. He stated that he likes that most of the project faces
Broad Street, but he is more nervous about the Pacific Street side.
Commr. Larson stated this is an interesting concept and he likes the interaction
between the lease spaces and the central area which he sees as drawing people in
from the lease spaces rather than the opposite.
Packet Page 172
Planning Commission Minutes
January 14, 2015
Page 8
Commr. Malak expressed concern about how the noise will filter through to the outside
through the swinging doors.
Commr. Draze suggested changing Condition 14 to state that no hard liquor will be sold
and "for onsite consumption" deleted.
Commr. Dandekar stated she really likes the concept and the intent. She asked about
Condition 23 which seems to require that the building will have to be elevated three feet.
Mr. Newton stated that the three -foot elevation applies to service and utility hookups
only and the rest of the building will be at street level.
Commr. Fowler stated he is concerned about the concentration of bars downtown. He
stated he will support the project because he likes the artisan center and the
architecture, Libertine sounds like the right tenant, and he thinks this is the right use.
He also agreed with the modification of hours.
Commr. Malak stated he likes the project. He added that his concerns include the
potential use of the adjacent CVS parking lot. He noted that the brew pub and CVS will
have the same hours, that Wells Fargo has a security guard in its parking lot, and a
person at CVS stated that at least five tow trucks come each day to the Wells Fargo lot.
Mrs. Newton stated that, with the clientele coming to the artisan center for an hour or
two, she does not think people will park in that lot, knowing they will get towed, but will
use the parking structure instead.
Commr. Malak stated he does not agree because cars are towed every day from the
Wells Fargo lot. He noted that he is concerned that parking may be removed to widen
the sidewalk and he did not see bicycle racks anywhere in the site plan. He stated that
with an older demographic out shopping, park benches would be nice. He noted that
Condition 22 says that out - swinging doors must be in alcoves but homeless transients
will sleep in those alcoves. He asked if the building design will be compatible with the
two attached structures, one on Broad and one on Pacific.
Deputy Director Davidson stated that the Architectural Review Commission will look at
the issue of architectural compatibility.
Commr. Larson suggested a condition similar to Condition 19 that could apply to the
Pacific Street side of the project.
Assistant Planner Berg- Johansen stated that there could be an addition to Condition 19
so that the condition would address pedestrian level of service on Pacific Street. He
added that people can use the parking garage and walk down Pacific Street.
Commr. Multari stated that this project is very attractive but the question is whether it is
in the right location and is the right use for this location. He added that he has doubts
because of the zoning split in the middle of the block between Marsh and Pacific and
the interface between offices and residential. He stated that the openings between the
Packet Page 173
Planning Commission Minutes
January 14, 2015
Page 9
lease spaces and the restaurants are a problem. He noted he does not think more wine
tasting is needed in an area of offices with residences nearby. He cited the testimony of
Mr. and Mrs. Abrahams and wondered if the project can be conditioned to close off the
lease spaces so there is no free flow between those and the main space, and to not
allow alcohol in those lease spaces but limit it to the brewery and restaurant. He
expressed concern about the reality of what the market will dictate and that the
applicants might say they cannot make it work with closing at ten and no live music, and
they really need the City's help in loosening up the conditions to make a go of it. He
stated that his response to that would be no because he is reluctant to have this project
morph into another bar. He added that he does not want the tavern part to become the
main use and, to feel comfortable approving this, he would need a condition that would
not allow that free flow or the tasting or serving of alcohol in the lease spaces. He also
supported enforcing the proposed hours. He repeated that, if the applicants find that, in
a year from now, the model does not work, he will be reluctant to give more flexibility.
He expressed disappointment in this use at this location. He noted that a taller mixed -
use project incorporating some residential would have been more appropriate.
Commr. Larson stated that the wine tasting businesses, as presented in the staff report,
would be offsite tasting rooms, not wine bars, which Assistant Planner Berg- Johansen
confirmed. He added that, if the project had four offsite wine tasting places plus the
brewery and restaurant, he would agree that that is a substantial number of alcohol
places.
Commr. Draze stated that to get his support, the lease spaces cannot have onsite
consumption and he would like to remove the connection between the lease spaces and
the restaurant.
Commr. Larson stated he likes the interaction between the leased spaces and the
central area and the project might attract a cheese or sausage shop.
Commr. Multari stated that businesses like cheese and flower shops would be fine but
he is concerned it will be other types of shops that might serve alcohol, and that people
in the restaurant consuming alcohol will filter out through the lease spaces to Pacific
Street.
Commr. Malak stated he can agree with prohibiting the wine tasting but does think the
open walkways between the lease spaces and the restaurants is a good idea.
Commr. Multari stated he is afraid some of that lease space could end up as restaurant
seating if the owners cannot get businesses like the cheese shop. He added that he
likes the idea of conditioning the project to prevent that.
Commr. Malak supported the idea of this type of condition.
Commr. Dandekar expressed concern about tying the hands of the applicant and did
not support a restriction on the type of businesses allowed in the lease spaces.
Packet Page 174
Planning Commission Minutes
January 14, 2015
Page 10
Commr. Multari stated that he is concerned about this being close to Old Town and next
to office buildings, and that it is just the idiosyncrasy of zoning that allows this use.
Commr. Fowler stated he likes the open doors and the free flow but also shares the
community concern about another bar and that there has to be concern about what
Commr. Multari has described. He noted he would rather err on the side of the lease
spaces not being alcohol places and would support coming up with a condition that
would prevent another bar downtown.
Commr. Malak stated, if there is a condition that there can be no offsite wineries there,
then that brings up the time frame and the question of whether businesses would be
required to be open the same hours as the restaurant.
Commr. Multari stated that would be something the restaurant owner /tenant and the
lease space tenants could figure out and it does not bother him as long as it does not
turn into a drinking place. He stated he would be in favor of letting them open earlier.
Commr. Dandekar stated that offsite wine tasting seems complementary to beer
brewing and asked if one such space could be allowed. She noted she is trying to leave
the applicants some leeway and some presence for local production.
Commr. Larson stated that is how he initially read it —one offsite wine tasting
establishment with the others being retail.
Commr. Draze stated that the only way he can be comfortable with the project is to
specify no alcohol consumption in the lease spaces.
Commr. Multari asked if lease space #1 could be considered for wine tasting.
Commr. Draze stated he would be less concerned about that location because it is
small and facing Broad Street.
Commr. Fowler stated he could be supportive of one outlet, probably on Broad Street.
Commr. Draze stated he could support opening at 10 a.m. and closing an hour later on
Thursday due to that being the Farmers Market night.
Commr. Draze made a motion and discussion ensued.
Deputy Director Davidson suggested altering Commr. Draze's wording in the new
condition banning alcohol consumption in lease spaces 3, 4, 5, and 6 to read: "Lease
spaces fronting Pacific Street shall not include wine tasting or other alcohol uses or
expansion of the brewery into the lease spaces." Commr. Draze accepted that wording.
Commr. Dandekar supported allowing the applicants to make lease space #1 somewhat
larger for a wine tasting bar.
Packet Page 175
Planning Commission Minutes
January 14, 2015
Page 11
Deputy Director Davidson noted that, if it gets substantially larger, more than 300
square feet or so, it would have to be brought back to the Commission for consideration.
Commr. Fowler seconded the motion at this point.
Commr. Larson stated he is supporting the motion with some reservation because he
does not think the restrictions on alcohol are necessary.
Commr. Multari stated he supports the motion with some hesitation because he remains
concerned about the potential for the project morphing into a bar.
Commr. Dandekar stated she would like to offer the applicants a little more flexibility but
is basically fine with the motion. She added she would like to give the applicants the
possibility of growing lease space #1 fronting Broad and is suggesting this as a friendly
modification to the motion.
Commrs. Draze and Fowler stated they both have a problem with changing the motion
Commr. Malak stated he can support the motion with some reservations because he
was at the Ludwick Community Center meeting and saw that at least 90% of the people
there thought there were too many bars in the downtown.
Commr. Larson stated that this is not a bar, but the type of establishment that might
help turn the corner on the bar issue.

approving a restaurant, a microbrewery, and some lease spaces.
There were no further comments made from the Commission.
