At this time the City Council. held a public hearing to consider an appeal of a Planning Commission decision to: 1) require a focused Environmental ' Impact Report for zoning text amendment, amending Section 9200.25 (R -2 zone district) to allow for fraternities and sororities within that zone with a use permit; and 2) denial of an amendment of Section 9200.25 (R -2 zone district) to allow for fraternities and sororities with a use permit in the R -2 zones; Delta Theta Chapter of Gamma Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., appellant. Henry Engen, Community Development Director, stated that the Planning Commission, on March 14, 1979, voted to require an E.I.R. on the request of the sorority and to deny the zoning amendment request. The staff recommends that the City Council uphold the Planning Commission and deny the appeal. Henry Engen continued that the applicants desired to change the text of the zoning ordinance in order to enable them to request consideration for a use permit for a sorority on land presently zoned R 2 medium density residential. The first action of the commission was to determine that such a request should have an Environmental Impact Report owing to the extent of R -2 zoned neighborhoods in the city. However, the Planning Commission then proceeded to deny the request on a 4:1 vote (one member changed his vote to meet their by -law requirements for the requisite 4 votes to act on a zoning matter). This action would have been final except that the ordinance permits an appeal to the City Council. The following letters in.-support of the appeal-of the sorority were submitted: Losi Weber Martinez Mary S. Luis and Anthony R. Luis A letter signed by the Panhellenic Alumnae Advisory. Committee signed by 11 persons. Lawrence B. Sage Leonard Lenger Letters in opposition to the appeal were received from the following: The Principal of Emerson- Hawthorne School, Dr. Marianne Michels Henry A. Zevely Winnie & Charles P. Root City Council Minutes April 3, 1979 - 7:00 P.M. Page 2 Mayor Cooper declared the public hearing open. Mrs. Rosemary Talley, President House Corporation Board, Delta Theta Chapter of Gamma Phi Beta Sorority, appeared before the City Council explaining the use they wished to make of the property at 1326 Higuera Street as a chapter house for the sorority. She explained that the purpose of the sorority was .to help young college women development an educational, social and cultural endeavor. She stated that the French home they were attempting to purchase was very large, 4000 square foot, older home on a lot measuring.19050 square feet, allowing adequate parking for the five bedroom home. The property would be used as a residence for fifteen girls and a housemother. It would also be used for weekly meetings of the sorority. Currently, the sorority meets from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. at the City Recreation Department Building. The sorority plans no additions to the house or any divisions to the property. Present plans only call for the addition of a bathroom sink and the improvement of the driveway and realignment of the fence on the south side of the property to provide suitable and attractive parking. She continued that this particular lot was backed by business establishments facing Monterey Street and bordered on either side by older homes used for offices or student housing. The remainder of the surrounding property seemed to be predominately single family homes, many of which were rented to students. The neighborhood was bordered at the end of the block by the railroad tracks and at the other end by Johnson Avenue and did not lend itself to permanent owner occupied family housing. Because.of the size of the subject property and the cost involved, it would no doubt be turned into rental housing if not used as a group home of some sort. Apparently the lot size and current zoning were adequate to allow 5.25 two bedroom apartments on the property with a population of 21 persons with no common interest or supervision. Mrs. Talley continued that she felt the sorority would enhance the neighborhood because the alumnae were concerned about the character and looks of the sorority home as were the active members. The property would be kept in its present state to insure preservation of the home and, indirectly, the neighborhood. Because of the-location and proximity to the downtown area, it was a benefit to the whole community if the property was kept in good repair and aestheti- cally cared for. They would hope to keep the property as an elegant, older home intact. She concluded by saying that the sorority was requesting a change in the San Luis Obispo City Zoning Ordinance to allow sororities in R -2 zones provided: (1) the density was in accordance with the medium density as described in the general plan; (2) the sorority had been officially recognized by the California Polytechnic State University; and (3) the sorority met all conditions of a use permit. The conditions of the use permit would allow the City of San-Luis Obispo the latitude to deal with unique individual properties that were developed before - current zoning practices were established. They would also allow an alternative method for the preservation of a residence of unique historical or.traditional landmarks which were not eco- nomically feasible as a single family residence or practical to preserve otherwise. Allowing sororities to occupy this type of residence would sacrafice as little as possible the unique charm, tradition and environ- ment which were priceless assets of San Luis Obispo. Patrice Kershaw, President, Gamma Phi Beta Sorority, spoke in support of the city finding a way to allow the sorority to occupy the property at 1326 Higuera Street as their chapter house. Cathy Homan, house manager of the sorority, spoke in support of finding a way to guide them in being allowed to use the property at 1326 Higuera Street for their sorority. Charlotte Brekke, 1034 Mill Street, explained the services to San Luis Obispo presented by the Greek letter sororities. Dr. Lorraine Howard, Cal Poly, spoke in support of sororities for Cal Poly and the City of San Luis Obispo. City Council Minutes April 3, 1979 - 7:00 P.M. Page 3 Dorothy Bilodeau, Judges House.-on Johnson Avenue, stated she was opposed to further control by the city over housing for young students. She supported the use of the French property for the sorority and stated that for many, many years, even before there was a.zoning ordinance in the city, her home had been used for housing young men from the college.. . Peg Morem, Flora Street., supported the application of the sorority as she felt this would put.thia property to good use and .would preserve the building on the property. Jean Ferrini, 663 A1.Hi11 Drive, stated that she supported the proposed sorority use of this property. She felt it was a well preserved, fine old home and was an asset to the city. She felt that the sorority would keep it so. She felt it being adjacent to the C -2 would make this use a buffer to other residential use within the area. She felt the sorority would be an asset to the neighborhood and the community and urged the City Council to approve the appeal. Joanne Forrest, financial advisor for the sorority, stated that there was already heavy traffic in this area, and.that the impact from 15 people was not going to be that great. She also felt that this would be a buffer between the high commercial uses on Monterey Street and the lower residential uses on Higuera Street. Ms. Forrest stated she was amazed at some of the comments referring.to students as if they were something other than human beings. She felt they were people who were learning to be mature and res- ponsible. She felt that use permits could be very restricted and urged that this amendment change be approved with strict controls. Dr. Frank Barrows, Higuera Stri use of this property. Mark Lindgren, Higuera Street, the sorority, felt it would be ' Larry Robinson, President, Cal the sorority use of the French and would preserve a very fine :et, stated he was in support stated he too was in support a good use for the community Poly student body, spoke in property. He felt that this location. of the proposed of this use by and for the city. Support of allowing was a good use Bob Timone, Cal Poly Dean of Students, stated he supported the proposed use of property for sorority housing. He felt that for a long time there would never be any special.fraternity, sorority on state land, although, Cal Poly was urging that this be allowed. . Bob Brank, 1352 Higuera Street, spoke in support of allowing the sorority to occupy the Higuera Street property. Joanne Fenton, attorney for the sorority, stated it was very difficult for her to understand what the.Planning Commission had had in mind when they required an E.I.R. on the zoning amendment for every piece of property in the City of San Luis Obispo, considering: A. The amendment did not a£fect.all parcels in the R -2 zone., but only a few; B. The amendment decreases the intensity of the use of the parcels which were affected; C. No project was presently proposed on any of the affected.parcel. No physical change was proposed on the parcel Gamma Phi Beta was acquiring, the house already existed; D. Gamma Phi Beta was proposing to. preserve a.large.and attractive house which could be demolished for the construction of multiple units. The house was far beyond the means of most families. E. The location was a busy commercial and professional office area, just off. -two of the city's major streets. Use of the property as housing for a small group of women would not make an impact that could be measured. It would not be possible to present any information in an E.I.R. that was not already available. City Council Minutes April 3, 1979 - 7:OO.P.M. Page 4 She concluded by saying that it was difficult not to conclude that the main reason for asking for an E.I.R. by the Planning Commission was to please the people who wished to-stall or defeat the establishment of housing for sororities and fraternities in this city. She felt the.environmental quality act was grossly abused when used in this fashion. She felt that from a practical point of view, the property on Higuera Street was ideal for the proposed housing. She felt that given the fact that sorority houses were going to exist in the city and that students couldn't be confined to ghettos, this parcel had the advantage of not being in a clearly single - family neigh- ' borhood. It was located in an isolated ;Ir lock pocket of R -2 zoning which was surrounded by commercial and professional office establishments.. Adjoining properties were not occupied by families. The house was well back from the street and had a high fence. From the standpoint of the young women who would be.living there, it was within easy biking or walking distance to campus and was served by the city bus She hoped that it was clear that this was not a case where a group was trying to avoide being under a conditional use permit. She stated the sorority was willing to accept whatever conditions need to be imposed to assure that their presence would not pose any problem. Moreover, this particular sorority had established an excellent reputation in their present location. She then reviewed for the City Council several legal definitions in the zoning ordinance dealing with private lodges for clubs and the fact that they were allowed in R -2 zones but not fraternities or sororities. She felt that the exclusion of student non - profit association in the R -2 was a discriminatory and invalid provision. She felt that California had a long and well established legal history of prohibiting discrimination in housing, not only discrimina- tion by government but also discrimination by private persons. She concluded her comments by saying that no change in use was contemplated -for the property on Higuera Street. It had always been used as a residence and would continue to be used as a residence. Existing facilities were categorically exempt under sections of the state code. On the whole, the housing which.was proposed appeared to be an undertaking which would benefit the environment and the city ' by preserving the structure as a home. She urged the City Council to approve the appeal. Dr. Dan Krieger, 662 Islay Street, President of the County Historical Society and on the faculty-at Cal Poly, stated that he supported the sorority use of the French property in order to preserve this building and others-like it for posterity. He felt the use permit should be allowed if off - street parking could be procured to protect the neighborhood. He said that his major fear was that these older buildings, large family homes, used in the olden days with large families were no, longer viable and that they would be destroyed and new, modern little boxes put up for residences. Penny Rappa, 1435 Broad Street, representing the Old Town Neighborhood Asso- ciation, stated that the problem was not the merits of a sorority using a building, but a problem of zoning and land use. She felt allowing these uses in R -2 zones would destroy the neighborhoods in which they were located. She also felt that an E.I.R. should be required. She felt that the R -2 zone was a neighborhood for families, not for boarding houses, etc. She felt that there many group houses that were out of control and were destroying the neigh- borhoods throughout the city. Mr. Pinard was opposed to organizational housing units in the R- 2.zones. He felt sororities and fraternities were not compatible with family ownership or living and that Cal Poly should solve their problems and not pass them on to the citizens of San Luis Obispo. He felt that group housing was a poor intrusion into residential areas and the City Council should deny any request to amend the zoning text to allow them into these zones. Mrs. , 1357 Higuera Street, 11 -year resident, stated that she was opposed to changing the planning laws to allow fraternities and sororities and other group housing in the R -2 zones. She stated that the major fear of the property owners and tenants in this one block of Higuera Street, was the influx of additional traffic and parking in the area. Without adequate off - street parking, it would destroy what is left of a nice residential neighborhood. City Council Minutes April 3, 1979 - 7:00 P.M. Page 5 Richard Jacobs, 1356 Garden Street, President of the Old Town Neighborhood Association, stated.that.he was opposed to the text amendment to allow group quarters in.the R -2 zone. He said the question was not the sorority use of the French property, but it was a change in the use of land and its develop- ment. He said that this proposal would lower real estate values, could be considered blonkbusting, and conflicted with the General Plan. He'felt it was incompatible with residential homes in the area. He felt-a complete E.I.R. ' would enable members of the commission and council to understand the kind of impacts that would result from these uses. He felt the members of the Old Town Neighborhood Association had experienced this problem in their areas with the great number of fraternaties, group housing, and other groups living out of control in their area. He urged the City Council to uphold the Planning Commission and deny the appeal. He then read a lengthy letter interpreting various state laws on planning, zoning, environmental quality act, etc. Myron A. Ledworowski, 1368 Higuera Street, was opposed to allowing the use of the French property for group housing, whether a fraternity or sorority. Miss Bonnie , 1351 Higuera Street, was opposed to allowing a permit for a sorority to use the French property on Higuera Street. She urged the denial of this request. Peg Pinard, Broad Street, Old Town Neighborhood Association, opposed to a text change to allow group - living in-the R -2 zones. She felt sororities and fraternities were not compatible with family living. She felt the City Council should support the Planning Commission and deny group living quarters in residential zones. She stated..that.at the present time, there are over six illegal group housing operations in the city and that the city did nothing to correct this. She said this matter has been brought to the City Council and staff many times over the years, but they are being ignored. She said that by allowing this text change, it would just increase the pressure on the city to grant variances for such group housing uses. Mr. Charles Andrews, Chairman of the Planning.Commission., reviewed.his actions in denying the negative declaration for the E.I.R., but he felt that at the public hearing this evening, not too many people seemed to desire the E.I.R. for the R -2 zones. Councilman Jorgensen stated he- was.oppased to text changes as he does not feel it involves the subject sorority house. He felt that text amendments were dangerous as applied to all properties in the existing R -2 zones or in R -2 zones that may come in the future. He felt there was an attempt to circumvent the zoning.ordinance-. He felt this was a very serious decision and that the honest action was to have the property rezoned to R -3 which also meant a change in the General Plan. He felt the experience of the city has been to expose family living to group intrusion in their areas and he.would oppose any action to change zoning text to allow fraternity and sorority uses in the R -2 zone. Henry Engen, Community Development Director, explained the time schedule which would be necessary to have the property zoned to R -3 which he felt would not be before November, 1979, as the zoning ordinance and the General Plan must first be amended. Councilman Bond felt that he would agree to deny the text change but he would accept an application to change the-zoning of this.blo.ck to.R -3... Councilman Dunin stated he would uphold the appeal to change the text to 1 allow fraternities and.-sororities-in the R -2 zone with use permits, but he would modify the text conditions for these uses. Councilwoman Billig stated she would-deny-the appeal,. and she felt the change in text was no.answer to the problem -at the present time before the City Council. Mayor Cooper stated he could support the appeal and proceed with the text change with conditions to be amended at a later date. City Council Minutes April 3, 1979 - 7:00 P.M. Page 6 George Thacher, City Attorney, stated that if the council upholds the appeal, they are approving text changes to the zoning ordinance that would allow fraternities and sororities in the R -2 zones. To deny the appeal would support the Planning-Commission in leaving the R -2 zone -text intact. - On motion -.of Councilman Jorgensen, seconded by Councilwoman Billig, that the city deny the appeal to amend the text for the R- 2-zone. Motion lost on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmembers Jorgensen and Billig NOES: Councilmembers Bond, Dunin and Mayor Cooper ABSENT: None On motion of Councilman Dunin, seconded by Councilman Bond, that the City Council uphold the appeal for the text change with the City Attorney to prepare the necessary documents for council consideration at the next council meeting.

Andrew Renetsky presented a petition signed by 123 residents of the area bounded by Grand Avenue, Fredericks Street, Motley, Bond, Hathway, Slack and back to Grand Avenue., asking that the City Council initiate a program of permit parking from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, of each week in the area and prohibit parking other than those with permits. He stated that the heavy traffic which now exists on the narrow and curved hillside streets has created a definite safety hazard, especially for the small children living in the area. What used to be a beautiful; quiet, residential area, is now one large, congested parking lot. The proposed parking program would restore this area to a safer, quieter neighborhood. The proposal would be: 1. To ban parking in the area from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on school days except by permit. 2. Issue vehicle bumper stickers to residents within.the area which would entitle them to unlimited parking. 3. Issue a limited number of guest cards to each residence. 4. Exempt commercial vehicles working in the area. In order for the system to work, the petitioners recommend: 1. That bumper stickers and guest cards be in a color which cannot be xeroxed. 1 u City Council Minutes April 3, 1979 - 7:00 P.M. Page 7 2. Require residents to show proof of address and registration of vehicle befoxe_r.eceiving bumper stickers or-guest cards. 3.. Require residents -to notify police department 24 hours in advance for any large gatherings in the area. The petitioners stated that as residents, they would.be willing to work with a program of this type and would be willing to pay reasonable fees or charges not to exceed $5 per household per year. David Ken, resident of Slack .Street, stated he was opposed to the concept of parking permits. He stated it was unenforceable and did not like to pay to park in front of his own house. He felt this was a typical city approach to rip off the students going to the university. He felt this was a frank discrimination against the students and he felt it was illegal and did not know who would support this program. Howard West, Dean of Cal Poly, hoped the city would work with Cal Poly faculty and staff before putting such a restricted program into force. Dottie Conner, chairperson for the Citizens` Committee, explained the reasons for requiring the permits, etc. On motion of Councilwoman Billi.g, seconded.by Councilman Dunin, that the City Council approve the proposal in concept and authorize.the staff to study and come up with a program for future council consideration. Motion carried on the following roll-call vote: AYES: Councilmembers Billig, Dunin, Bond, Jorgensen and Mayor Cooper NOES: None ' ABSENT: None Councilman Jorgensen asked that this program be limited to a one -year trial period to be reviewed before adding it.into other neighborhoods.. 4. A request from the executive board of the Business Improvement Area that the city allow free parking at the emtpty parking meters in downtown San Luis Obispo on Saturday. The meters that are not used are Osos Street, from Mill to Pacific, Palm Street, from Morro to Santa Rosa, Monterey Street, Osos to Santa Rosa, Marsh Street, Osos to Santa Rosa, Pacific Street, Osos to Santa Rosa, Pacific Street, Broad to Santa Rosa, with the block between Chorro and Morro being left metered. The plan would be to advertise the program, the B.I.A. would furnish the paper bags with the printing and the manpower to put the bags on and off each Saturday. The areas under suggestion are in the city and county administrative area as well as the financial and professional services in the city and that these meters are only used during the week. The B.I.A. would like to try this program for a period of two months to see if it would work and if the people would appreciate the use of the free parking. The B.I.A. felt that this program would give the downtown some relief while they are working on the future parking plans which look like they will be two to three years away. Jerry Munger, chairman of the B.I.A., appeared before the City Council explaining his program and urging council. consideration. ' on motion.of.Councilman Jorgensen, seconded by Councilman Bond, that the matter be referred to the city staff for a report on options, preparation of ordinances, any change in the proposal, etc. Motion carried on the following roll call vote: AYES: Counci]members Jorgensen, Bond, Billig, Dunin and Mayor Cooper NOES: None ABSENT: None City Council Minutes April 3, 1979 - 7:00 P.M.

Communication from the San Luis Obispo Chamber of Commerce informing the City Council that the Sign Committee of the Chamber has again met and stated that they felt that it would-be impossible to make any recommendations relative to the sign ordinance until all businesses in the city have been notified as to their conformance to the sign ordinance. The letter continued that they did not wish to creat a future problem by making recommendations, working out compromises, and then finding out that the downtown business people (who have not yet been notified) cannot live with those compromises. Therefore, the Chamber committee asked the following: 1. All efforts of the sign enforcement.technician be devoted to notifica- tion of nonconformance- of. .the remaining-.sign- owners in a reasonable length of time. 2. All other enforcement (except notification of the sign owners of nonconformances) be suspended until all notifications have been completed and the Chamber sign committee has had a reasonable time to analyze the reaction of the notifications and formulate recommen- dations.
