ATTACHMENT 2 DATE: February 27, 2018 TO: FROM: lanning Commission Heather Hines, lanning Manager SUBJECT: IZO Amendments RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the lanning Commission adopt a resolution recommending the City Council approve text amendments to the Implementing Zoning Ordinance, including modifications to the following Chapters: Chapter 25 Chapter 11 Chapter 21 Chapter 28 Chapter 4 DISCUSSION Zoning text amendments are governed by Chapter 25 of the Implementing Zoning Ordinance and by California Government Code Section 65853. Chapter 25 provides that the lanning Commission may recommend zoning text amendments for approval to the City Council based on lanning Commission findings that the proposed amendments are in conformance with the City' s General lan and consistent with the public necessity, convenience, and general welfare. The proposed amendments are minor in nature and are either to update requirements to better respond to current trends or to correct errors. The proposed amendments are explained below by each chapter. Chapter 4 ( Zoning Districts and Allowable Land Uses). Tile primary change in Chapter 4 is to Table 4. 3 and Table 4. 4. In Table 4. 3 the proposed changes make " Dwelling, multiple" an allowable land use in the MU1B zoning district with issuance of a Conditional Use ermit. Additionally, footnote # 13 is proposed to be eliminated for " Residential in a mixed use building" in the MU1B zoning district. Residential is currently not allowed in the MU1B zoning district with the exception of the parcel at the corner of Corona and North McDowell. The proposed changes would allow residential in a mixed use building as a permitted use and multi - family residential as a CU in the MU1B zoning district. These changes are consistent with the General lan designation of Mixed Use that calls for a " robust

retail, residential, service commercial, and/ or offices". This combination of uses, including change would apply to five sites currently zoned MU1B, including the Deer Creek Shopping Center, East Washington lace Shopping Center, KOA Campground on Stony oint, the Corona Road SMART Station site, and a 26 acre property at Lakeville Highway and Marina Avenue. It is recommended that the multi -family land use be changed to a CU to allow further review on a case by case basis to determine the suitability for standalone residential, proximity to transit, etc. The proposed change to Table 4. 4 would allow " Storage warehouse, indoor storage" with a Conditional Use ermit in the Business ark zoning district. This is in response to repeated inquiry to accommodate these types of uses both as standalone uses and as a significant component of light industrial uses seeking to locate in areas within the B zone. Other proposed modifications are more technical edits to match proposed changes to definitions in the glossary and to update footnotes to track with changes to land uses. Chapter 11 ( Off -Street arking). The primary changes in Chapter 11 are associated with Table 11. 1 to modify the required onsite parking for industrial uses. Currently parking standards for manufacturing, wholesaling, and warehouse are the most restrictive of three standards ( lot acreage, gross floor area, and number of employees). In practice this often creates the requirement to develop more parking based on the property acreage than needed for the size of the industrial facility or based on the number of employees. Changing the requirement to be based on the size of the facility chooses what is typically the middle requirement and avoids creating unnecessary parking areas based on the property size or under parking based on a low employee tenant. Additionally, associating the parking requirement with floor area is consistent with standards found in other jurisdictions. All other changes to Chapter 11 are corrections and do not change substantive requirements of the code. Chapter 21 ( erformance Standards). The single change proposed is Chapter 21 is Section 21. 040( H) to correct the reference to the regulatory agency. Chapter 25 ( Amendments). roposed revisions clean up a duplication of wording related to the subsequent Section 25. 080 and restate the required findings for approval of a zoning amendment that had previously been eliminated. Chapter 28 ( Glossary). There are several amendments proposed within Chapter 28 to expand or clarify land use definitions. " Artisan/ Craft roduct Manufacturing" is an existing land use category targeted at small manufacturing uses that do not tend to create the same impacts associated with larger manufacturing operations and are allowed in mixed use zones where the more general Manufacturing/ processing Light" land use is not allowed. The current definition precludes

artisan food and beverage manufacturing. However, staff has had multiple inquiries about small local food and beverage manufacturers who want to locate in existing tenant spaces in the center of town, where artisan/ craft product manufacturing is otherwise allowed. The proposed change to the definition allows staff to consider small scale artisanal food and beverage product manufacturing when impacts are minimal, not to the level of full manufacturing. Several existing land use definitions such as " General retail", " Manufacturing/ processing" and Office" contain lists of example uses. These lists often use terminology out of date with current trends or appear to be a limiting list as opposed to examples. Small modifications to these lists to clarify that they " include, but are not limited to" and to modify some of the specific examples are proposed. The current definitions for " Medical Service Minor" and " Office, rofessional/ Administrative" create a conflict when looking at mental health care professionals. Both definitions include psychologists". roposed changes clarify that psychologist offices fall within the " medical service minor" land use category. Additionally, a note has been added that massage therapy and acupuncture can be included in the " medical service minor" category when not part of a personal service or spa establishment. Modifications are proposed to the office categories defined in Chapter 28 to streamline and clarify the different categories based on anticipated impacts and the suitability of the different office types in the various zoning districts. changes are proposed Finally, to the " Wholesaling and distribution" land use definition to expand the category to include distribution from online sales to better track with current trends in this type of land use. To recommend the proposed amendments to the City Council the lanning Commission must find that they conform to the etaluma General lan and are consistent with the public necessity, convenience, and general welfare in accordance with Section 25. 050( B) of the Implementing Zoning Ordinance. The lanning Commission has discretion to recommend modification to the staff proposal. If it does so, the Commission should convey the reasons for the modifications to the City Council. A simple majority vote of the Commission member' s present, assuming a quorum of Commissioners is present, suffices to approve a resolution recommending action on the amendments to the City Council. General lan Consistency The proposed zoning ordinance amendments are consistent in general conformity with the etaluma General lan 2025 in that the amendments do not change the general character or impacts of current zoning regulations. Amendments to Chapter 4 related to allowable uses in the MU1B zoning district further supports the intent of the Mixed Use land use designation to facilitate a robust combination of uses, including retail, residential, service commercial, and/ or offices. The proposed change to allowable uses in the B zoning district reinforces the Business ark land use designation to attract light industrial operations.

Amendments to Chapters 11 and 28 provide update and clarity to existing zoning language to more accurately represent current land use trends and support the General lan' s overall goal to guide development in line with the vision and underlying policies. Additional amendments to Chapters 21 and 25 correct errors and do not create any change that is inconsistent with the General lan 2025. ublic Necessity, Convenience, and Welfare The proposed amendments are consistent with the public necessity, convenience, and welfare in that they update and clarify existing regulations, provide greater flexibility in assigning designations to current land uses, and remove identified obstacles to the implementation of the zoning code, which implements the policies of the General lan. Environmental Review The proposed zoning text amendments are exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15061( B)( 3) and 15183 as follows: Section 15061( b)( 3), General Rule, of the CEQA Guidelines is applicable as there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant impact on the environment in that proposed zoning text amendments Section 15183 of the CEQA Guidelines provides an exemption for projects that are consistent with the General lan. The subject zoning text amendments are minor modifications to existing regulations that only apply to specific locations and uses as governed by the Implementing Zoning Ordinance, consistent with the General lan. For the above reasons, the proposed amendments are exempt from environmental review. ublic Comment ublic notice was published in an eighth page ad in the Argus Courier on January 25, 2018. At the February 13, 2018 lanning Commission meeting the item was continued to a date certain of February 27, 2018.
