Planning Commission Report – March 8, 2023
1.0 PLANNING COMMISSION’S PURVIEW
The Planning Commission’s role is to review the project for consistency with the General
Plan, Zoning Regulations, and applicable City development standards and regulations.
Per Table 2-1 (Uses Allowed by Zone), a hotel use requires approval of a Conditional Use
Permit to operate in the C-S Zone. In addition, hours of operation outside of 7:00 a.m. to
8:00 p.m. for the commercial component of a mixed-use development require approval of
a Minor Use Permit per Section 17.70.130(F)(4)(b) (Hours of Operation – All Other Zones
that Allow Mixed-Use Projects).
2.0 PROJECT INFORMATION

2.2 Site Background and Project Description
On December 9, 2020, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved the request to
construct a mixed-use development consisting of 15 residential units, 1,500 square feet
of commercial space, a density bonus, and various reductions or waivers to development
standards at 830 Orcutt Road (ARCH-0764-2019, AFFH-0210-2020, and USE-0209-
2020) (Resolution No. PC-1028-2020, Minutes). The development is currently under
construction and site improvements such as surface parking spaces and access would
be shared between all uses. Approval of this mixed -use development includes the
construction of three (3) residential buildings and one (1) commercial building, which the
Applicant is proposing to utilize for the hotel use. The proposed hotel does not include
any changes to the approved building location or construction of additional building
square footage.
The project is a 24-hour boutique hotel consisting of three (3) guest suites in an
approximate 1,500 square foot, single-story building. Proposed operations would utilize
a contactless system, where guests reserve, pay, check-in and check-out, and request
for assistance without in-person interactions with hotel staff. Guests would make a
reservation online; receive emails for information on hotel processes, rules, and
Page 10 of 28
Item 4a
USE-0680-2022 (830 Orcutt Road)
Planning Commission Report – March 8, 2023
regulations; access the room with a security code; and contact a 24 -hour hotline for
maintenance requests and nuisance reports. All necessary information would be provided
electronically and physically in the guest suites. No onsite employees are proposed, and
general housekeeping and maintenance services would be regularly fulfilled by
independent contractors on a contract basis.
3.0 PROJECT ANALYSIS
Approval of the Conditional Use Permit to establish the hotel use and allow daily, twenty-
four hour operation is subject to requirements outlined in Section 17.110.060 (Criteria for
Approval) and Section 17.110.070 (Required Findings) for consistency with the General
Plan and Zoning Regulations and for compatibility with existing and future land uses in
the vicinity. Staff has evaluated the project against applicable policies and standards and
found it to be in compliance as discussed in this analysis.
3.1 Consistency with the General Plan and Zoning Regulations
The project site is located in the Services and Manufacturing (SM) Land Use Designation
and Service Commercial (C-S) Zone, which are intended for a wide range of service uses
that meet needs of the City and demands of the region. As proposed, the project would
facilitate Community Goal No. 27 of the Land Use Element and be consistent with the
purpose of the Land Use Designation and Zone by providing a lodging option for those
visiting the City and/or region. Since the project will operate within a previously approved
building with no changes to location or additional square footage, development standards
related to setbacks, height, lot coverage, and floor area ratio outlined in Section 17.36.020
(Development Standards) remain unchanged for the commercial building.
The project was evaluated for consistency with the original mixed -use development
approval and for compatibility with the residential uses in the development. No conflicts
with the original conditions of approval or design were identified. Additionally, th e project
would comply with applicable performance standards in Section 17.70.130(F) (Mixed-Use
Developments – Performance Standards) for nonresidential uses and be compatible with
the neighboring residences in this development as discussed below.
Lighting
Section 17.70.100 (Lighting and Night Sky Preservation) requires all outdoor lighting
fixtures be shielded and directed downward to minimize spillover and operated with the
minimum intensity necessary for safety and security. The Applicant is required to submit
a building permit for the tenant improvements to create the guest suites. As part of the
building permit review, proposed lighting improvements will be evaluated and verified for
compliance with lighting requirements in this preceding section. Therefore, the proposed
hotel would not result in adverse impacts related to lighting.
Noise
Chapter 9.12 (Noise Control) requires all activities operate in compliance with defined
noise levels and in a manner that does not constitute a public nuisance. The project is a
small-scale operation consisting of three (3) guest suites that are less than 500 square
Page 11 of 28
Item 4a
USE-0680-2022 (830 Orcutt Road)
Planning Commission Report – March 8, 2023
feet each, does not include outdoor amenities, is prohibited from having amplified sounds
outdoors, and is subject to compliance with noise requirements in this preceding chapter
(Condition No. 4). As conditioned, the hotel would not result in adverse impacts related
to noise.
Air Quality and Odors
The project does not include use of mechanical equipment or involve operations that
produce air pollutant emissions or odors. Therefore, the proposed hotel would not result
in adverse impacts to air quality or emit odors.
Hours of Operation
To ensure commercial uses do not negatively impact residential uses within a mixed-use
development, hours of operation outside of 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. for the commercial
component require approval of a Use Permit per Section 17.70.130(F)(4)(b) (Hours of
Operation – All Other Zones that Allow Mixed-Use Projects). The Applicant is requesting
to operate daily for twenty-four hours a day to implement typical hotel operations, which
include overnight accommodations throughout the entire week.
To address any potential impacts related to noise, parking, etc. on the neighboring
residences, the project is conditioned to retain a responsible party that is available via
telephone for twenty-four hours a day to respond to any emergencies or nuisance
complaints (Condition No. 3). The contact information for the responsible party shall be
made available to hotel guests and residents living in the neighboring units. Additionally,
amplified sounds are not permitted outdoors (Condition No. 4).
Parking
A 10 percent parking reduction, in exchange for replacement bicycle parking, was
included as part of the original approval for the mixed -use development. Since the site
consists of multiple uses that have varying peak hours of use, it was determined peak
parking demand would not overlap or coincide to exceed the 32 spaces provided onsite.
Per Table 3-4 (Parking Requirements by Use), a multi-unit residential use requires 0.75
space per bedroom (no less than one (1) space per dwelling unit), plus one (1) guest
parking space per five (5) dwelling units, and a hotel use requires one (1) space per room.
The entire development includes 15 multi-family residential units and three (3) hotel
rooms, which would require a total of 28 spaces, or 25 spaces with the 10 percent
reduction applied.
Of the 32 spaces provided onsite, there are four (4) surface parking spaces that would be
shared by guests for the hotel and residences (Resolution No. PC-1028-2020). To ensure
parking availability when the hotel use is occurring, one (1) parking space for each
reserved guest suite shall be available for hotel guests between the hours of 4:00 p.m.
and 11:00 a.m. for the length of their stay (Condition No. 5). These hours align with typical
check-in and check-out times and would allow for overnight parking by hotel guests. As
conditioned, all uses would be sufficiently served by onsite parking and the proposed
Page 12 of 28
Item 4a
USE-0680-2022 (830 Orcutt Road)
Planning Commission Report – March 8, 2023
hotel would not result in a parking deficiency for the site.
4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The project is categorically exempt from provisions of CEQA as described in Sections
15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15332 (In-Fill Development) of the CEQA Guidelines.
The project is exempt under Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines
because it includes the operation of a three-room hotel use in, and minor tenant
improvements to, the commercial building of a mixed-use development that was
previously approved and is currently under construction. The Planning Commission’s
review and approval of the mixed-use development (ARCH-0764-2019, AFFH-0210-
2020, and USE-0209-2020) on December 9, 2020 included a determination that the
proposed development is categorically exempt. Required construction permits have since
been obtained and the mixed-use development, including the commercial building that is
proposed for hotel use, is under construction. The hotel use does not include any changes
to the location of the commercial building or construction of additional square footage.
Therefore, the project involves no expansion to the previously approved commercial
building.
The project is also exempt under Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) of the
CEQA Guidelines because it is consistent with the General Plan land use designation,
applicable General Plan policies, and Zoning Regulations; is located on a project site
within City limits that is less than five (5) acres in size (0.56 gross acre); is surrounded by
other urban uses (e.g., existing residential, commercial recreational, light manufacturing,
storage, etc. uses); and is not a habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species
because the use will operate within the commercial building of a mixed-use development.
Approval of the project will not result in any significant effects related to (a) traffic because
the project is limited to three (3) guest suites, would not exceed the trip threshold (i.e.,
less than 110 daily vehicle trips) anticipated for Small Development Projects per the
CEQA Guidelines, and would be sufficiently served by onsite parking spaces; (b) noise
because the project would comply with exterior and interior noise levels outlined i n
Chapter 9.12 (Noise Control); (c) air quality because construction -related emissions
associated with the required tenant improvements are temporary; or (d) water quality
because the project does not include operations that would impact onsite or offsite creeks
or wetlands. Lastly, the project can be adequately served by all required utilities and public
services. Therefore, the project would not result in a significant effect on the environment.
5.0 DEPARTMENT / DIVISION COMMENTS
The project has been reviewed by the Planning Division, Building Division, Engineering
Division, Fire Department, and Utilities Department. Any applicable conditions from these
departments or divisions have been included in the Planning Commission Resolution for
the project approval. In addition, the project will be reviewed for compliance with relevant
code requirements (e.g., Building Code, Fire Code, etc.) as part of the building permit
review.

the mixed-use development at 830 Orcutt Road, pursuant to a proceeding instituted
under ARCH-0764-2019, AFFH-0210-2020, and USE-0209-2020, 830 Orcutt, LLC, the
applicant; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of San Luis Obispo conducted
a public hearing on March 8, 2023, pursuant to a proceeding instituted under USE-
0680-2022, 830 Orcutt, LLC, the applicant; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of San Luis Obispo has duly
considered all evidence, including the testimony of the applicant, interested parties, and
evaluation and recommendations by staff, presented at said hearing; and
WHEREAS, notices of said public hearings were made at the time and in the
manner required by law.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City
of San Luis Obispo as follows:
SECTION 1. Findings. The Planning Commission hereby grants final approval
to the project (USE-0680-2022), based on the following findings:
1. As conditioned, the project is consistent with the General Plan because it is a
small-scale service that provides a lodging option for those visiting the City
and/or region. The proposed hotel use is conditionally permitted in the Service
Commercial Zone and would be a service that is compatible with, and would not
result in adverse impacts to, surrounding uses, which include residences,
commercial recreation, bar/tavern, light manufacturing, and storage.
2. The proposed hotel use is conditionally permitted within the Service Commercial
Zone and conditioned to comply with applicable provisions of the Zoning
Regulations and Municipal Code.

Resolution No. PC-XXXX-23
830 Orcutt Road, USE-0680-2022
Page 2
3. As conditioned, the design, location, size, and daily, twenty-four-hour operating
characteristics of the project will be compatible with existing and future land uses
in the vicinity because the proposed hotel use is limited to three (3) guest suites,
does not include outdoor amenities or amplified sounds, would be adequately
served by onsite parking, and shall comply with applicable performance
standards related to lighting, noise, air quality, and hours of operation for
nonresidential uses in mixed-use developments.
4. The site is physically suitable in terms of (a) its design, location, size, and
operating characteristics of the project ; (b) traffic generation and the provision of
public and emergency vehicle (e.g., fire and medical access); (c) public
protection services; and (d) the provision of utilities (e.g., potable water, schools,
solid waste collection and disposal, storm drainage , wastewater collection,
treatment, and disposal, etc.). The project is located on and surrounded by other
developed properties with compatible uses, adequately served by onsite parking,
has access to the City’s circulation system, and would be served by City utilities.
The project does not include activities that generate service or utility demands
beyond those anticipated with uses permitted in the vicinity.
5. The establishment and subsequent operation or conduct of the use will not,
because of circumstances and conditions applied in the particular case, be
detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of the general public or persons
residing or working in the neighborhood of the use, or be detrimental or injurious
to property or improvements in the vicinity of the use because the project is
required to obtain a building permit for the tenant improvements and relevant
code requirements will be reviewed for compliance at the time of building permit
application.
SECTION 2. Environmental Review. The project is categorically exempt from
provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as described in Sections
15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15332 (In-Fill Development) of the CEQA Guidelines.
The project is exempt under Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines
because it includes the operation of a three -room hotel use in, and minor tenant
improvements to, the commercial building of a mixed-use development that was
previously approved and is currently under construction. The Planning Commission’s
review and approval of the mixed-use development (ARCH-0764-2019, AFFH-0210-
2020, and USE-0209-2020) on December 9, 2020 included a deter mination that the
proposed development is categorically exempt. Required construction permits have
since been obtained and the mixed -use development, including the commercial building
that is proposed for hotel use, is under construction. The hotel use doe s not include any
changes to the location of the commercial building or construction of additional square
footage. Therefore, the project involves no expansion to the previously approved
commercial building.

The project is also exempt under Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) of the
CEQA Guidelines because it is consistent with the General Plan land use designation,
applicable General Plan policies, and Zoning Regulations; is located on a project site
within City limits that is less than five (5) acres in size (0.56 gross acre); is surrounded
by other urban uses (e.g., existing residential, commercial recreational, light
manufacturing, storage, etc. uses); and is not a habitat for endangered, rare, or
threatened species because the use will operate within the commercial building of a
mixed-use development. Approval of the project will not result in any significant effects
related to (a) traffic because the project is limited to three (3) guest suites, would not
exceed the trip threshold (i.e., less than 110 daily vehicle trips) anticipated for Small
Development Projects per the CEQA Guidelines, and would be sufficiently served by
onsite parking spaces; (b) noise because the project would comply with exterior and
interior noise levels outlined in Chapter 9.12 (Noise Control); (c) air quality because
construction-related emissions associated with the required tenant improvements are
temporary; or (d) water quality because the project does not include operations that
would impact onsite or offsite creeks or wetlands. Lastly, the project can be adequately
served by all required utilities and public services. Therefore, the project would not
result in a significant effect on the environment.
