NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo as follows: SECTION 1. Findings. Based upon all the evidence, the City Council makes the following findings in support of the request to modify certain conditions of approval for Vesting Tentative Tract Map 2428: 1. The proposed condition modifications are reasonably necessary to allow the development to proceed given financing considerations and projected traffic levels. 2. The design of the vesting tentative tract map is consistent with the General Plan because the proposed subdivision respects existing site constraints (slope, creeks, wetlands, significant R 10514 Resolution No. 10514 (2014 Series) Page 2 trees), will incrementally add to the City's residential housing inventory, result in parcels that meet density standards, and will be consistent with the density and lot sizes established by the Margarita Area Specific Plan. 3. The site is physically suited for the proposed type of development allowed in the R -1 -SP, R- 2-SP, R- 2- SP -PD, R -3 -SP, C /OS -SP, and C /OS -SP -PD zones. 4. The design of the subdivision will not conflict with easements for access through (or use of property within) the proposed subdivision. 5. The subdivision will not have a significant adverse impact on the environment, subject to the mitigation measures of the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) certified by the City Council on October 12, 2004, being incorporated into the project, the mitigation monitoring program adopted with said EIR approval being followed and mitigation measures recommended herein. 6. On July 3, 2007, the City Council adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) which adequately addresses the potential significant environmental impacts of the proposed project. The MND along with the prepared Addendum adequately evaluate the potential environmental impacts associated with the current project. 7. Several Environmental Impact Reports have been certified that included the Prado Road extension, including the 1994 Land Use and Circulation Elements, the 2000 Amendment to the Circulation Element, and the Airport and Margarita Specific Plans. These EIR's have analyzed the impacts associated with adding the road to the circulation system and Circulation Element and its current alignment. Project specific impacts were addressed in each environmental document prepared for Vesting Tract Maps. SECTION 2. The City Council adopted the project's Mitigated Negative Declaration on July 3, 2007, which incorporates the following mitigation measures and monitoring programs into the project. An Addendum to the EIR and MND was prepared for the current revisions request (ER 121 -13), which demonstrates that no additional mitigation measures are required. The City Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in this Addendum in its consideration of the final project design and finds that the preparation of a subsequent EIR is not necessary, based on the following findings, and subject to the following mitigation measures: Findings a. None of the circumstances included in Section 15162, which require a subsequent EIR have occurred, specifically: b. The project changes do not result in new environmental impacts. c. The circumstances under which the project is undertaken will not require major changes to the EIR. d. The modified project does not require any substantive changes to previously approved mitigation measures. Resolution No. 10514 (2014 Series) Page 3 Mitigation Measures: Reduction of Light and Glare 1. In order for MASP /AASP EIR Mitigation Measure LU -7.1 as implemented by the MASP to be carried through to lot - specific development stage, a lighting plan that demonstrates compliance with Community Design Section 3.3 Lighting requirements of the MASP shall be submitted with other required plans for both the residential and commercial components of the project to the review and approval of the Architectural Review Commission (ARC). The lighting plan shall propose specific measures to limit the amount of light trespass associated with development within the project area including shielding and /or directional lighting methods to ensure that spillover light does not exceed 0.5 foot - candles at adjacent property lines. ,L> Monitoring Program: The ARC will review development plans for both the residential and commercial components of the project. City staff, including Planning and other departments, will review plans to assure that all of the ARC's requirements related to lighting and compliant with the MASP provisions have been incorporated into working drawings. City building inspectors will be responsible for assuring that all lighting is installed pursuant to the approved lighting plan. Preparation and Implementation of "Comprehensive Biological Mitigation Program" 2. Mitigation for wetland impacts. Mitigation for wetland impacts will be through a combination of on- and off -site mitigation, approved by the City, the DFG and the Army Corps of Engineers. Further, in compliance with the MASP /AASP EIR, the subject VTM #2428 proposes the creation of Lots 81 -85 and Lot 178 in areas designated by the MASP for "Open Space- Riparian" for the express purposes of achieving some of the necessary wetlands replacement mitigation area, as well as preservation of related biological habitat benefits. Lot 178 is intended to be dedicated to the City of San Luis Obispo prior to or concurrently with final map recordation. 3. Mitigation for Impacts to Creek Habitats. Mitigation for impacts creek habitats will be through a combination of on- and off -site mitigation, approved by the City, the DFG and the Corps. 4. Mitigation for Impacts to Serpentine Bunchgrass Habitat. A mitigation program involving restoration of serpentine bunchgrass habitat at an identified area in the so- called "saddle" in the King property's open space parcel, should be required. This area occupies between one - half and three- quarters of an acre. The program would at a minimum, replace the existing non - native grassland in that area with a grassland containing a majority of native bunchgrass species including purple needlegrass, meadow barley, and California brome. In addition, a program for additional protection for the open space lands of the project will be developed. The goal of this program will be to provide protection for remaining areas of serpentine Resolution No. 10514 (2014 Series) Page 4 bunchgrass habitat and species within that habitat in the South Hills Open Space, through mechanisms such as fencing, trail realignments, and drainage improvements on the access road to the communication site on neighboring property. Finally, the project sponsors propose to donate fee title to Lot 178 to the City of San Luis Obispo as permanent open space as part of the project. 5. Mitigation for Impacts to Sensitive Species. None of these species are expected to be difficult to establish. City staff will work with the project sponsors in developing the details of the effort. 6. Mitigation for Impacts to Sensitive Species. None of these species are expected to be difficult to establish. City staff will work with the project sponsors in developing the details of the effort. Palmer Spineflower. None required. Brewer Spineflower. None required. Obispo Indian Paintbrush. Collect seed or seed /soil mix for relocation to open space lot enhancement site. Miles Milkvetch. Collect seed or seed /soil mix for relocation to open space lot enhancement site. Obispo dudleya. Due to the very small number of impacted individuals and the ease of transplanting, transplant these individuals to suitable sites within the project open space. Obispo Mariposa Lily. None required. Adobe Sanicle. Relocate some individuals to a suitable site within the project open space; consider transplanting the balance to a suitable site in Laguna Lake Park or other suitable off - site location approved by the City, or consider lot adjustments to protect the major portion near lots 82, and adjacent multifamily lot. Congdon TarpIant. Create compensating habitat in a suitable off -site location approved by the City. Loggerhead Shrike. Remove myoporum tree before nesting season. 7. Mitigation for Impacts to Other Nesting Birds. Undertake surveys prior to initiation of construction activities; avoid construction activities within 100 feet of active nest sites, or within 300 feet for raptor nests, until after young have fledged. 8. Off Site Mitigation for Wetland Impacts. A further component of the biological mitigation program is the applicant's proposal to acquire (by fee, easement, or eminent domain) lands outside the bounds of the Western Enclave (designated by the MASP as "Open Space Riparian" lands). The targeted property (lying south of Prado Road and owned by Prado Park LLC) is a low lying area that already naturally collects some area run -off and provides valuable habitat for certain special concern and R -T -E (rare, threatened, and endangered) species, and thus is beneficial to retain in its natural state. Pre - development run -off has resulted in seasonal flooding of Prado Road due to the currently deficient collection/distribution system to this natural drainage area south of Prado Road. The Western Enclave applicants propose to acquire this off -site property designated for open space use by the MASP and utilize it beneficially for biological mitigation as well as a detention basin for Resolution No. 10514 (2014 Series) Page 5 pre- and post - Western Enclave development generated run -off. It is proposed that this basin be enhanced to accommodate the greater project - generated and pre - project run -off flows, and to increase its habitat value in the long term. The basin is proposed to be held and maintained by a Home Owners Association (HOA) established initially for the Western Enclave area, and perhaps ultimately for the entire MASP as stipulated be done by the MASP. Monitoring Program: Prior to approval of the final map, the applicant shall contact the City Natural Resource Manager for review and approval of the final lot and street design to assure that on -site natural resources are protected and preserved to the greatest extent required by the mitigation measures and consistent with requirements of the MASP and MASP I AASP EIR. Said design shall also be consistent with approvals required subsequent to this Tentative Map from State Dept. of Fish and Game and Army Corps of Engineers. Prior to any site preparation or construction activities, the applicant shall also initiate and complete for approval by the City pre- construction surveys for nesting birds and adhere to performance standard specified in the mitigation. Provisions for required off -site mitigation shall be coordinated with and approved by the City Natural Resource Manager prior to recordation of the Final Map. Periodic field inspections by City Staff during construction will be necessary to assure site development conforms to mitigation measures and conditions of approval. Preparation and Implementation of a "Construction- Related Hazardous Materials Management Plan" 9. As stipulated in the MASP / AASP EIR, this would be a plan identifying, when they are known, site /development - specific construction activities that will involve the hazardous materials. The plan shall be prepared before construction activities begin that involve hazardous materials and shall discuss proper handling and disposal of materials used or produced onsite, such as petroleum products, concrete, and sanitary waste. The plan will also outline a specific protocol to identify health risks associated with the presence of chemical compounds in the soil and /or groundwater and identify specific protective measures to be followed by the workers entering the work area. If the presence of hazardous materials is suspected or encountered during construction- related activities, the project proponent will cause Mitigation Measure HAZ -1.2 to be activated. Mitigation Measure HAZ -I.2 states: "The project proponent will complete a Phase I environmental site assessment for each proposed public facility (e. g. streets and buried infrastructure), If Phase I site assessments indicate a potential for soil and /or groundwater contamination within or adjacent to the road or utility alignments, a Phase II site assessment will be completed. The following Phase II environmental site assessments will be prepared specific to soil and /or groundwater contamination. a. Soil Contamination. For soil contamination, the Phase H site assessment will include soil sampling and analysis for anticipated contaminating substances. If soil contamination is exposed during construction, the San Luis Obispo Fire Resolution No. 10514 (2014 Series) Page 6 Department ( SLOFD) will be notified and a work plan to characterize and possibly remove contaminated soil will be prepared, submitted and approved. b. Groundwater Contamination. For groundwater contamination, the Phase II assessment may include monitoring well installation, groundwater sampling, and analysis for anticipated contaminating substances. If groundwater contaminated by potentially hazardous materials is expected to be extracted during dewatering, the SLOFD and the Central Coast RWQCB will be notified. A contingency plan to dispose of contaminated groundwater will be developed in agreement with the SLOFD and Central Coast RWQCB. " Monitoring Program: The "Construction- Related Hazardous Materials Management Plan" will be required to be submitted to the City Community Development Department and Fire Department for review prior to commencement of any site preparation or construction work involving hazardous materials. No site preparation or construction work may commence before said plan has been approved by the City. Any site work commenced without City approval of said Plan will be subject to "Stop Work" (cease and desist) orders as may be issued under the authority of the City Fire Department. SECTION 3. Action. The City Council hereby approves the requested modifications to conditions of Vesting Tentative Tract Map 2428. The following conditions will supersede in their entirety the previously approved conditions approved by Council Resolution No. 9917 (2007 Series). Streets: 1. Subject to available right -of -way, the subdivider, in cooperation with the City and adjacent property owners, will construct a Class I bike path connecting the existing terminus of Prado Road to Broad Street at the Damon - Garcia Sports Fields. Unless otherwise approved by the Public Works Director, the bike path should be located on the south side of the future Prado Road extension and consist of a minimum 8' wide asphalt concrete path with 2' wide decomposed granite shoulders and fencing on both sides. a. Off -site dedication/acquisition of property for this public right -of -way purpose is necessary to facilitate the construction of the bike path. The subdivider shall work with the City and the land owner to acquire the necessary right -of -way for the bike path. In the event the subdivider is unable to acquire said right -of -way, the City Council may consider lending the subdivider its powers of condemnation to acquire the off -site right - of -way dedication, including any necessary slope and drainage easements. If condemnation is required, the subdivider shall agree to pay all costs associated with the off -site right -of -way acquisition (including attorney and court costs). If the Council concludes that it does not want to acquire the right -of -way via eminent domain and thereby the project cannot be completed, the Subdivider shall be alleviated from completing Condition # 1. b. Subject to final approval of the City, the subdivider may receive fee credit for the Resolution No. 10514 (2014 Series) Page 7 construction costs for the bike path if the facility is located in the Prado Road corridor. Fees eligible for credit are limited to Margarita Area "Add On" Transportation Impact Fees and Margarita Area Specific Plan "Add On" Park Impact Fees. No other City Impact Fees or Connection Fees shall be available for credit or reimbursement, including, but not limited to, Citywide Transportation Impact Fees for all other MASP projects. c. Necessary right -of -way shall be acquired and the bike path improvements installed with the first phase of the final map, unless the improvements are deferred to a later phase by mutual consent of the subdivider and the City. 2. Margarita Area Specific Plan Impact Fees, as adopted by the City of San Luis Obispo, shall be paid prior to issuance of each building permit, subject to any approved reimbursement agreements. If at the time of building permit issuance the City's TIF has not been amended to accommodate the improvements to the South Higuera/Prado and South Higuera/Tank Farm intersections as identified in the traffic study performed by Central Coast Transportation Consulting dated January 6, 2014, or Prado Road has not been connected to Broad Street, the applicant will be responsible for paying a pro rata share of said improvements subject to approval of the City's Public Work Director. 3. The public improvement plans for VTTM 2353, VTTM 2428 and VTTM 2342 shall consider the proposed or required phasing to be completed by the combined development known as Margarita Area Specific Plan western enclave. The public improvement plans for each subdivision shall include any offsite improvements as considered necessary by the Director of Public Works to provide a reasonable transition between the subdivisions in the case that one project is developed before another. The scope of required improvements shall be approved to the satisfaction of the Public Works Director. Pursuant to Section 16.20.110 of the City Municipal Code, the subdivider may be eligible for reimbursement for improvements that are in excess of the construction required for the subdivision, including, but not limited to storm drainage, sewer, water and power. 4. Unless otherwise approved by the Public Works Director and the Fire Marshall, a secondary access shall be required for every phase of the final map. 5. The final subdivision design and improvements shall comply with the Margarita Area Specific Plan and all other City of San Luis Obispo Design Standards, Engineering Standards and Standard Plans and Specifications. The subdivision improvement plans and the Prado Road bike path plans shall be approved by the City prior to final map recordation. 6. Prior to final map approval, the final design, location, and number of traffic calming measures including bulb -outs, choke - downs, tabletops, roundabouts, neck - downs, etc. shall be reviewed and approved by the Public Works Director. Choke -downs adjacent to open space corridors shall be lengthened to include the entire length of the open space corridor. Plans submitted for review shall include a turning diagram demonstrating a fire, garbage or other large city or delivery multi -axel truck's ability to negotiate the traffic calming features. Additional or alternative traffic control measures such as raised tabletops may be Resolution No. 10514 (2014 Series) Page 8 required to comply with the MASP objective to "foster traffic volumes and speeds that will be compatible with the neighborhood." 7. Pursuant to the Margarita Area Specific Plan, traffic volume and speeds shall be monitored after development. Prior to final map recordation, the Subdivider shall deposit a faithful performance security in the amount of $130,000 to retain a qualified traffic consultant to conduct traffic counts and speed measurements on Margarita Avenue and on streets within and in the vicinity of the subdivision. The counts and measurements will be conducted one -year after final occupancy of complete build -out of the subdivision or acceptance of public improvements, whichever occurs later. The locations of the counts and measurements shall be approved by the Public Works Director. If the traffic volumes or speeds exceed City standards, the $130,000 security will be retained by the City to guarantee that Subdivider installs additional City- approved traffic calming measures to reduce volume and speeds to comply with City standards. As an alternative to the above, prior to final map recordation, the Subdivider may pay a one -time nonrefundable contribution to the City's Neighborhood Traffic Management Program in the amount of $130,000 to fund future traffic calming efforts in and around Tract 2428. 8. The subdivision design shall include directional curb ramps wherever possible. The inclusion of bulb -outs at directional curb ramp locations is encouraged to decrease the roadway width to be crossed by a pedestrian. 9. Prior to approval of improvement plans, alternative paving materials proposed within the public right -of -way shall be approved by the Public Works Director. Alternative paving materials shall be maintained by the Homeowner's Association. 10. The subdivider shall re- stripe the southbound left turn lane and install pedestrian countdown heads at the South Higuera/Prado intersection as identified in the traffic study performed by Central Coast Transportation Consulting dated January 6, 2014. 11. Except for the 71 -acre lot donated to the City, project common areas including, but not limited to, landscaped areas, landscaped parkways and Class I pathways (other than Prado Road) shall be owned and maintained in perpetuity for public use by a Homeowner's Association. Water meters for common landscape areas including but not limited to parkways, medians, roundabouts and pathway corridors are subject to water impact and water meter installation fees and shall be paid for by the subdivider. 12. The final locations of multi -use path connections to public streets shall be reviewed and approved by the Natural Resources Manager and City Traffic Engineer. Where multi -use paths intersect public streets, the roadway shall be narrowed and the crossing designed perpendicular to the roadway. 13. The final design and location of private streets and fire access ways, and the approaches thereto onto public streets, shall be reviewed and approved by the Public Works Director and Fire Department. Plans submitted for review shall include a turning diagram demonstrating a fire, garbage or other large city or delivery multi -axle truck's ability to Resolution No. 10514 (2014 Series) Page 9 negotiate into and within the private streets and access ways within the proposed "PD" and Lot 178 portions of the site. 14. The proposed street bulb -outs shall be designed with minimum inside and outside radii of 20' and 10' respectively. 15. Analysis of the street drainage design shall be provided with the submittal of complete public improvement plans. Streets designed with a quarter crown shall justify the curb capacities in accordance with city standards. Some areas may require that the bulb -outs be reduced in depth or removed completely to accommodate the drainage along the high side of the street. 16. Bulb -outs at T- intersections may need to be replaced with standard curb returns of a smaller radius to achieve the desired traffic calming goals and to accommodate street drainage. 17. The number and location of catch basins shall consider city standard spacing and drainage design requirements. The number of catch basins shall be limited to those required by code and /or design to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. 18. The transition between Street N and Street W shall be approved to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Moving of the quarter crown section from one side of the street to the opposite side shall not be completed with a super - elevated section unless all drainage issues are addressed. 19. Street intersections shall be provided with directional curb ramps in accordance with city and ADA standards or guidelines. T- intersections shall include receiving ramps on the through street. 20. Prior to final map recordation, the subdivider shall submit a separate irrevocable offer of dedication for public access purposes to provide access from VTM Tract 2353 to the open space adjacent to Tract 2428. The offer will be recorded in the event that the Tract 2428 public improvements have not yet been accepted by the City, but access to the open space is needed for VTM Tract 2353 and the general public. On & Off -Site Improvements: 21. With respect to all off -site improvements, prior to filing of the Final Map, the Subdivider(s) shall either: a. Clearly demonstrate their right to construct the improvements by showing title or interest in the property in a form acceptable to the City Engineer; or, b. Demonstrate, in writing, that the subdivider has exhausted all reasonable efforts to acquire interest to the subject property and request that the City assist in acquiring the property required for the construction of such improvements and exercise its power of eminent domain in accordance with Government Code Section 66462 .5 to do so, if necessary. Subdivider shall also enter into an agreement with the City to pay all costs Resolution No. 10514 (2014 Series) Page 10 of such acquisition including, but not limited to, all costs associated with condemnation.
