RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE DENYING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 25-001, REVERSING THE PLANNING COMMISSION APPROVAL OF THE SAME, AND GRANTING APPEAL CASE NO. 26- 002, ; CONSTRUCTION OF NINETY-TWO (92) MULTI-FAMILY DWELLING UNITS; LOCATION – 1271 AND 1281 JAMES WAY; APPELLANTS – PISMO MEDICAL
PROPERTIES LLC, ARROYO GRANDE PARTNERS LLC AND RAY B BUNNELL
REVOCABLE TRUST, ON THE BASIS OF SPECIFIC ADVERSE IMPACTS ON
PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY
WHEREAS, the project site is an approximately 1.81-acre parcel at 1271 and 1281 James Way; and
WHEREAS, the applicant proposed Conditional Use Permit 25-001 for ninety-two (92) multi-family dwelling units with density bonus concessions reducing parking and other standards; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission approved the project on January 20, 2026, with a statutory CEQA exemption under Public Resources Code §21080.66; and WHEREAS, appellants timely appealed, and the City Council has conducted de novo review on April 14, 2026, considering the full administrative record, including ATE studies, 2000/2008 reciprocal easements, 2004 OEG monitoring reports, site plans (including Building B location and rolling gate), biological assessment, General Plan policies, traffic/parking analyses, recent site photos showing overflow and restrictions, and public testimony; and WHEREAS, the project would have a specific, adverse impact on public health and safety that cannot be mitigated (HAA §65589.5(j)(1) exception). It places 92 units adjacent to medical offices serving elderly/mobility-impaired patients in a high-stress circulation corridor (per General Plan Safety Element SAF-1.4, SAF-4.1, SAF-4.4, SAF-6 and Active Transportation Plan). It relies on only 31 dedicated garages plus speculative shared parking/access without verified enforceable cross-easements or replacements (inconsistent ATE studies ignoring historical overflow documented in 2004 OEG reports; Building B in historically encumbered Area 2 per 2000 Agreement; recent hotel restrictions and pre-study blocking reducing shared spaces; no confirmed agreements for reconfiguration obligations under 2008 Amendment); resulting spillover will foreseeably block drop-off zones, ambulance access, fire lanes, and emergency movement, violating objective standards (California Fire Code access roads; General Plan complete streets/pedestrian safety) existing at completeness date. These impacts are significant, quantifiable, direct, and unavoidable; no feasible mitigation exists short of denial or lower density (signage/towing/gates insufficient without reliable parking foundation); and WHEREAS, the record does not support, by preponderance, that the project complies with all objective standards as modified or lacks specific adverse impacts; parking/access representations are unreliable given lack of demonstrated rights and historical deficiencies; and
WHEREAS, the AB 130 CEQA exemption is questionable given the site’s eastern boundary abutting natural Meadow Creek open space/watercourse, potentially failing infill/perimeter urban-use criteria, requiring full review; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council:
1. Grants Appeal Case 26-002 in full;
2. Reverses the Planning Commission approval of Conditional Use Permit 25-001;
3. Denies the project on grounds of specific, adverse, unmitigable impacts to public health and safety; and
4. Directs staff to prepare written findings consistent with this resolution.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 14th day of April, 2026.

Subject: HCD follow up re: Arroyo Grande Creekside Junction Project Good morning all,
Thanks for taking the time to meet with HCD staff on April 6, 2026 regarding the proposed 92-unit Creekside Junction Project. This email is to follow up on our call in anticipation of tomorrow’s April 14, 2026 City Council hearing. HCD reviewed relevant portions of the staff reports prepared for the Planning Commission and City Council and, based upon the information conveyed in the reports,
Housing and Community Development

Phone: 916.776.7781
understands that the Project qualifies for the protections of the Housing Accountability Act (HAA) and that staff has evaluated the project and determined its compliance with the applicable objective standards. HCD further understands that the Project qualifies for the added protections under subdivision (d) of the HAA for projects that provide the requisite affordable housing specified in Government Code section 65589.5, subdivision (h)(3)(A).
To assist the City in its consideration of the forthcoming appeal, and as described in the referenced staff reports, HCD reminds the City that subdivision (d) of the HAA specifies the written findings local governments must make to disapprove a qualifying affordable housing development project, or to condition its approval in a manner that renders the project infeasible. This includes, among other required findings, that the local government find, based on a preponderance of evidence in the record (Gov. Code section 65589.5, subd.(d), that there is a “significant, quantifiable, direct, and unavoidable impact, based on objective, identified written public health or safety standards, policies, or conditions (…)” (Gov. Code section 65589.5, subd.(d)(2).) “Objective” means, “involving no personal or subjective judgment by a public official and being uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the development applicant or proponent and the public official.” (Gov. Code, section 65589.5, subd. (h) (9).) Additionally, a local government can only deny or condition the approval in the manner described above, if “the denial […] or imposition of conditions is required in order to comply with specific state or federal law, and there is no feasible method to comply without rendering the development unaffordable to low- and moderate-income households (…) (Gov. Code, section 65589.5, subd. (d) (3).)
In addition to the five possible findings required under subdivision (d) referenced above, any “housing development project” under the HAA that meets all applicable objective standards (except those lawfully modified via State Density Bonus Law concessions and waivers) may only be disapproved or approved at a lower density if the City makes the written findings (supported by a preponderance of evidence on the record) contained in subdivision (j) that, (1) a specific, adverse impact upon the public health or safety would result from the project and (2) mitigation of the adverse impact is not possible. (Gov. Code, section 65589.5, subd. (j)(1).)
Note that the Legislature has explicitly provided that the specific adverse impacts described in the HAA are intended to arise infrequently. (Gov. Code, section 65589.5, subd. (a)(3).) Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
Thank you,
Lisa

RE: Agenda Item No. 10.a: Response to Appeal of Planning Commission Approval of Conditional Use Permit 25-001 for the Creekside Junction Project
Dear Mayor Russom and Honorable City Councilmembers:
This letter is submitted on behalf of our client, Russell Sheppel, the owner of 1271 and 1281 James Way (“Property”) in support of his development of a 92-unit multi-family housing project (“Project”) on the Property. Since the hearing on March 24, 2026, Appellants Pismo Medical Properties, LLC, Arroyo Grande Partners, LLC (“Curl Fitness”) and Ray Bunnell (collectively, “Appellants”) have submitted further written opposition to the Project. The written opposition raises no legal flaws; the Project complies with all applicable law and the City Council should proceed to uphold the Planning Commission’s approval and deny the appeal.
Rather, Appellants are attempting to use this City land use process to solve alleged parking problems of their own making. Customers to Pismo Medical Properties and Curl Fitness have been parking illegally on Mr. Sheppel’s property, and Appellants are attempting to use this entitlement to extract concessions from Mr. Sheppel to continue the practice. This is NIMBYism at its core—subverting the land use and planning process to develop affordable housing at taxpayers’ expense.1 The vast majority of public comments received are from Curl Fitness gym members, who have been incited to carry this NIMBYism torch elevating their claimed right to park over housing opportunities. This is precisely the reason the State is in a housing crisis—local agencies cannot make housing decisions based on the business interests of a few to the detriment of the City as a whole. The fact is that Mr. Sheppel is attempting to help the City alleviate housing burdens on its current and future residents. We urge the City to deny the appeal and permit Mr. Sheppel to continue with this worthwhile endeavor. 1 As noted in the Staff Report, Appellants paid a total of $1,858.30 for the two appeal hearings on this Project, which certainly does not cover the City’s legal and administrative costs to hear this Appeal.

To address any concerns this Council may have, this letter responds to each of Appellants’ baseless objections and other stated opposition to the Project.
1. Mr. Bunnell argues that the Project would encroach on access easements to the Casa Grande Inn. That is not the case. The Project continues to provide access to the Casa Grande Inn as shown in Sheet A3 of the Site Plan and consistent with Exhibit C-1 of the 2021 Grant of Easement for Ingress and Egress (Doc. No. 2021071093) that creates the easement.
2. Mr. Bunnell also argues that the Project allows access to the Project through the Casa Grande Inn. That is not the case. Access to the Project will be off James Way.
3. Mr. Bunnell also submitted an email from Mr. Sheppel to Mr. Bunnell wherein Mr. Sheppel stated that he was “reviewing potential modifications and reduction in the building.” That comment was made in the spirit of compromise with Mr. Bunnell, an attempt to negotiate a resolution of Mr. Bunnell’s concerns. Mr. Sheppel has made similar outreach to Pismo Medical Properties and Curl Fitness. Mr. Sheppel’s good faith efforts to compromise have been rebuffed by each; Appellants prefer the public spectacle to actually solving their alleged concerns.
4. Public commenters have offered, without evidence, that the Project site sits on a creek bed, contains riparian habitat, and that it is home to red-legged frog. None of that is true. The Project site does not include any portion of the creek or its banks and contains no riparian habitat. The Project’s expert biologist, David Wolff, has visited the site numerous times over the past decade, visited it again on April 6, 2026, and confirmed the prior reporting of the site that it is highly modified and lacks any habitat for special status species. Mr. Wolff’s technical report summarizing his April 6, 2026 site visit is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
5. Pismo Medical Properties and public commenters argue that the Project will cause “spillover onto James Way [] and Oak Park Boulevard.” Appellants have no evidence to support this statement.
First, Associated Transportation Engineers (“ATE”) prepared a study for the Project to analyze whether the Project would cause spillover into James Way, and concluded that would not be the case; the Project would operate within acceptable standards.
Second, ATE also prepared a study in March 2026 to analyze the current parking demands on the properties neighboring the Project site. (See Exhibit B.) The study shows that the existing parking provided on site meets the City’s parking ratios, minus one space. The study then analyzes peak parking demands for each of the businesses in the Oak Park Professional Plaza and concludes that at peak demand only 151 spaces is required, while the Project site presently contains 157 spaces. The study then concludes that, given the adequacy of the site’s existing parking, a parking management plan amongst the various Oak Park Professional Plaza owners

would solve the alleged parking issues on site as they are seemingly caused by mismanagement of the parking supply, which include, but are not limited to, Appellants’ unauthorized parking on Mr. Sheppel’s property. Parking and operational mismanagement by neighboring businesses does not constitute an impact from the Project.
Third, ATE prepared an April 2026 study to analyze whether the Project’s added parking demand would be met with onsite parking. (See Exhibit C.) The study calculated peak demand for all existing uses plus peak demand for the Project and concluded that the parking provided would be sufficient to meet demand—172 spaces at peak demand in Oak Park Professional Plaza with the Project, with 192 parking spaces provided throughout the Plaza and Project site.
Fourth, Mr. Sheppel has owned the site for nearly forty years and is not aware of any traffic incidents on James Way, Oak Park Boulevard, or in the parking lot caused by the Oak Park Professional Plaza’s customers. Indeed, there have been safety improvements made to the entrance of James Way since 2004 (relocation of a fire hydrant closer to Oak Park Boulevard, modification of the change of the radius turn into the Oak Park Plaza, and improvement of two driveways off of James Way, etc.). Appellants unsubstantiated claims of traffic hazards are not evidence.
Fifth, the Legislature has declared that conditions that would create “specific, adverse impact upon the public health and safety” arise infrequently. (Gov. Code, § 65589.5(a)(3).) A “specific, adverse impact” is defined as a “significant, quantifiable, direct, and unavoidable impact, based on objective, identified written public health or safety standards, policies, or conditions as they existed on the date the application was complete.” (Id. at (d)(2) [emphasis added].) An “objective” standard means one “involving no personal or subjective judgment by a public official and being uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the development applicant or proponent and the public official.” (Id. at (o)(9).) Notably, inconsistency with a zoning ordinance is expressly not a specific, adverse impact. (Id. at (d)(2)(A).) Appellants also must show the “specific, adverse impact upon public safety” based on a preponderance of the evidence; a standard that favors finding no impact. (Id. at (d), (j)(1); id. at § 65589.6.) Any speculation about parking shortages falls far short of meeting this threshold. The California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) does not require an analysis of parking shortages, nor can a parking shortage alone constitute an environmental impact. (See Save Our Access–San Gabriel Mountains v. Watershed Conserv.
Auth. (2021) 68 Cal.App.5th 8, 26 [rejecting that a reduction in parking spaces constituted an environmental impact; Pub. Res. Code, § 21099(b)(3) [“[T]he adequate of parking for a project shall not support a finding of significance [under CEQA].”]; CEQA Guidelines, § 15384(a) [speculation is not evidence].) The Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) further sent the City an email concurring with staff and our legal analysis on these issues.
VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL
April 14, 2026

Appellants also do not identify an inconsistency with a single “objective” City standard that was in effect when the Project’s application was complete. Rather, Appellants cite to subjective General Plan standards that staff and the Planning Commission found the Project consistent with, or draft General Plan standards that have not yet been adopted and were not even published when the Project application was determined to be complete in July 29, 2025. For example, General Plan Policy S5-1, cited by Appellants, asks that the City “maintain a high level of emergency preparedness and information about radiation levels[,]” which is not an objective requirement on the Project, nor supported with any relevant evidence. Simply put, the Appellants and commenters unsubstantiated claims of traffic, parking, and fitness center operation hazards do not—and cannot—support a finding that the Project has a specific, adverse impact on public health and safety based on an objective standard as required by the Housing Accountability Act and Density Bonus Law.
6. Pismo Medical Properties asserts that there is “no dedicated secure bicycle storage (residents must carry bikes up four stories — a hazard, especially for seniors/mobility impaired; impractical in a bike-friendly community).” This speculative assertion ignores (a) the City does not require dedicated secure bicycle storage; (b) the Project provides first floor storage that will be dedicated to bicycles; and, (c) the primary building contains an elevator that minimizes any speculative hazards associated with residents that choose to store their bicycles in their apartments.
7. Pismo Medical Properties also seemingly asserts that the Project is inconsistent with the City’s General Plan because James Way and Oak Park Boulevard are identified as “high-stress corridors.” Nonsense. The Project promotes the General Plan’s policies, in particular Policy CT5- 1, which calls for “transit oriented developments” and multiple family residential projects near office, regional commercial, and business park.
We also note that the City’s Supplemental Report for Reschedule Appeal Case 26-002 staff report further highlights that the Project qualifies for multiple CEQA exemptions designed to promote infill housing development. In addition to complying with the requirements of Public Resources Code Section 21080.66(a), the staff report acknowledges that the Project is categorically exempt from CEQA under State CEQA Guideline 15332. As explained in the staff report, the Project meets all the qualifying criteria for the infill exemption. (See also Wollmer v. City of Berkeley (2011) 193 Cal.App.4th 1329, 1347–1350 [approving a Density Bonus Law project pursuant to the infill exemption]; Working Families of Monterey County v. King City Planning Commission (2024) 106 Cal.App.5th 833, 851 [upholding staff’s determination that the infill exemption applied to a grocery store within a small city].) To supplement the staff report finding that the Project qualifies for the infill exemption because it will not have significant air quality impacts, the Project team evaluated the development based on the San

VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL
April 14, 2026
Luis Obispo County Air Pollution Control District’s (APCD) CEQA Air Quality Handbook.2 Based on APCD’s spreadsheet tool, the 92 unit low rise residential project with an estimated completion date of 2029 falls below the operational threshold criteria for CO, Diesel, greenhouse gas, and ozone precursor emissions (ROG + NOx).3 The Project will only involve 2,600 cubic yards of cut, 3,200 cubic yards of fill, and 7,700 cubic yards of removal and re-compaction, which are not anticipated to trigger air quality impacts associated with the construction based on generally applicable APCD requirements and conditions.
In closing, we ask that City Council uphold the Planning Commission’s approval and deny the appeal. Despite asking for three additional weeks to prepare, Appellants submitted less than five pages of substantive analysis to support their Appeals and instead dumped hundreds of pages of irrelevant documents in attempts to distract from the issue at hand—whether the Planning Commission and staff properly approved the Project in accordance with State law and applicable Arroyo Grande policies and standards. The Planning Commission did so unanimously and that decision should be upheld.

SUBJECT: CREEKSIDE JUNCTION PROJECT EXISTING CONDITIONS & SPECIAL-STATUS SPECIES ASSESSMENT, CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE, CALIFORNIA (APN: 007-711-080, -081) Dear Mr. Sheppel:
David Wolff Environmental (DWE) is providing this Existing Conditions and Special-Status Species Assessment for the Creekside Junction Project in the City of Arroyo Grande (City), California (APN: 007-711-080, -081). DWE has prepared this report based on the review of available background information from previous project biological/wetland resources site surveys and evaluations, established current existing conditions of biological resources and no wetlands present verification by DWE in 2025 included in the staff report, a field survey conducted by DWE Principal Ecologist David Wolff on April 6, 2026, and the search and review of the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB).
DWE established the proposed Creekside Junction project site as a highly modified site from construction of the adjacent development lacking native species habitat. It is composed of paved and dirt parking lots, a constructed basin and berm along Meadow Creek supporting upland non-native annual grassland and ruderal (disturbed) areas. The site is bordered by development on the south and west, James Way on the north, and Meadow Creek offsite to the east. The eastern property line runs along the edge of the constructed berm as part of the adjacent development to the west dating back before 1986 when the property was originally purchased from the developer. Based on observations of the project site during the survey on April 6, 2026, the property remains in similar condition to those established in the Morro Group, Inc. Biological Resources Assessment in 2001 (2001 BRA).
No wetlands or other waters of the U.S./State are present within the project site. Agency verified upper limits of jurisdictional waters of the U.S./State of Meadow Creek is offsite on City property at the 61.5-foot contour well below the constructed berm that follows along 69-foot contour of the project eastern property boundary.
The search and review of the CNDDB for the Arroyo Grande region revealed 12special-status wildlife species and 20 special-status plant species with recorded occurrences in the region of Arroyo Grande. The species with recorded occurrence in the region of Arroyo Grande are listed in the attached Table 1 along with habitat requirements and potential to occur onsite.
SHEPPEL ARROYO GRANDE, LLC – CREEKSIDE JUNCTION
DAVID WOLFF ENVIRONMENTAL, LLC EXISTING CONDITIONS SPECIAL-STATUS SPECIES ASSESSMENT |2 BIOLOGICAL & WETLAND RESOURCES ASSESSMENTS – REGULATORY COMPLIANCE SPECIALIST None of these occurrences are on the project site, none of these species have been observed on the project site, and the property does not provide suitable habitat for any special-status species listed in Table 1. In particular, there are no CNDDB recorded occurrences of the California red-legged frog within Meadow Creek. The nearest CNDDB California red-legged frog recorded occurrence is approximately 1.7 miles away across urban development to the southeast in Tally Ho Creek, a tributary to Arroyo Grande Creek. Further, no creek impacts would result from project development with implementation of the required SWPPP.
The existing conditions observed during the DWE April 6, 2026 field survey confirm the lack of native species habitat with no observations of special-status plants or wildlife within the project area. The developed ruderal project site lacks habitat for any upland or aquatic special-status wildlife species. Overall status of the property based on multiple surveys conducted on the property since 2001, including the field survey conducted by DWE on April 6, 2026, indicate there have not been significant changes to the quality of the habitat on the project site since the 2001 BRA, and the findings in that study are still valid conclusions as to the likely presence of the referenced special status species. Therefore, there is no evidence that any special status plant or wildlife species occur on the project site or that the project site represents habitat for any such species. The attached Figure 1 Representative Photographs from the DWE April 6, 2026 survey of the site continue to establish the existing conditions in the record of the developed ruderal project site lacking native species habitat.
Thank you very much for continuing with DWE for your environmental consulting services.
Please contact me directly if there are any questions or need for additional information.
Sincerely,
David K. Wolff, Principal Ecologist

PARKING STUDY FOR THE CREEKSIDE JUNCTION RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT - CITY
OF ARROYO GRANDE
Associated Transportation Engineers (ATE) has prepared the following parking study for the Creekside Junction residential development located in the City of Arroyo Grande. The following parking study determines the number of parking spaces and the parking demand estimates for the Creekside Junction.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
As shown on Figure 1 the Creekside
Junction Project is located within the
existing Oak Park Professional Plaza.
The Project is proposing to develop 92
multifamily residential units. Figure 1
(attached) illustrates the Project site
plan. As shown, primary access to the
site will be provided via an existing
driveway connection to James Way that
serves the Oak Park Professional Plaza.
As part of the Major Modification
application, the City has requested a
parking study to determine the
adequacy of the existing on-site parking spaces. The parking study will identify the number of proposed parking spaces and the parking demand estimates for the Creekside Junction Residential Development.
Russ Sheppel Page 2 April 13, 2026
PARKING ANALYSIS
A total of 31 on-site garage parking spaces are provided as part of the Creekside Junction as shown in Table 1. Table 1 summarizes the number of units and unit types included as part of the Creekside Junction development and the number of parking spaces available for the Creekside Junction.

Shared Parking Demand Analysis
It is noted that the ITE empirical parking demand rates don’t account for the “shared parking” due to the varying peak parking demands of the tenants and land uses within the Oak Park Professional Plaza. A shared weekday parking demand estimate was developed based on parking surveys conducted on Thursday March 5, 2026 and empirical parking demand data.
The weekday shared parking summary is presented in Table 3.

The data presented in Table 3 show that the existing peak weekday parking demand and parking turnover for the Oak Park Professional Plaza is 134 spaces. With the addition of the Creekside Junction development, the peak weekday demand is 172 spaces and occurs between the hours of 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM. The 192 parking spaces provided in the various on-site lots are adequate to meet the shared parking demands and provide a reserve of 20 vacant parking spaces.
A shared weekend parking demand estimate was developed based on parking surveys conducted on Saturday March 7, 2026 and empirical parking demand data. The weekend shared parking summary is presented in Table 4.

The data presented in Table 4 show that the existing peak weekend parking demand and parking turnover for the Oak Park Professional Plaza is 92 spaces. With the addition of the Creekside Junction development, the peak weekend demand is 133 spaces and occurs between the hours of 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM. The 196 parking spaces provided in the various on-site lots are adequate to meet the shared parking demands and provide a reserve of 59 vacant parking spaces
RECOMMENDATIONS
ATE recommends that the Oak Park Professional Plaza management routinely monitors the onsite parking supply and implements a TDM/Parking Management Plan. A TDM/Parking Management Plan would provide needed on-site support if performed as a shared site responsibility. Due to the number of unauthorized/illegally parked vehicles on the dirt/unmarked asphalt of the Sheppel property, a site monitoring strategy combined with towing of illegally parked vehicles in accordance with the California Vehicle Code.

Subject: Opposition to Adoption of Prepared Resolution Denying Appeal Case 26-001 and Approving Conditional Use Permit 25-001 (Creekside Junction – 92 Multifamily Units at 1271/1281 James Way) I respectfully submit this opposition to the staff-recommended Resolution denying Appeal Case 26-001 and approving CUP 25-001 for the proposed 92-unit Creekside Junction project.
While I recognize California's housing needs and the project's 15% very low-income component, state law — including the Housing Accountability Act (HAA, Gov. Code §65589.5) and the AB 130 statutory CEQA exemption (PRC §21080.66) — still requires strict compliance with objective standards and prohibits approval when a project would cause specific, unmitigable adverse impacts on public health and safety.
After reviewing the March 24, 2026 staff report, supplemental materials, the prepared Resolution, and the HCD letter, I urge the City Council to exercise its de novo review authority and select Alternative 3: tentatively uphold the appeal and direct staff to return with a resolution denying the CUP, supported by detailed written findings.
1. The Project Does Not Qualify for the AB 130 Statutory CEQA Exemption (PRC §21080.66)
The Resolution relies on the one-quarter-mile radius test (~77% urban uses) to satisfy PRC §21080.66(a)(3). However, the exemption is intended for projects substantially surrounded by urban development. Meadow Creek forms the entire eastern boundary — a natural riparian corridor, not an "urban use" as defined in PRC §21072 (residential, commercial, institutional, retail, etc.). This major natural feature breaks urban continuity along a full side of the site perimeter.
The biological studies claim "no impact" on riparian habitat by labeling features "upland," yet the buildings sit only 32–35 feet from the creek edge. Increased impervious surfaces will generate additional runoff, creating indirect risks of erosion, sedimentation, and water-quality degradation. The Resolution's mitigation conditions (e.g., stormwater filtration and vegetation management) acknowledge potential effects rather than eliminate them. Statutory exemptions must be strictly construed; the project does not meet the "substantially surrounded by urban uses" intent. At minimum, an Initial Study is required. The Class 32 categorical exemption fallback also fails due to unusual circumstances (creek adjacency and documented parking/traffic strain).
2. The 32–35 Foot Creek Setback Creates a Specific Adverse Impact on Public Health and Safety (HAA §65589.5(j)(1))
AGMC §16.44.050 imposes a minimum 50-foot setback from the top of bank or edge of vegetation to protect against erosion, flooding, and riparian degradation. The project proposes only 32–35 feet, with taller building sections closest to the creek.
As the HCD letter correctly reminds the City, HAA §65589.5(j)(1) allows denial or approval at lower density when the project would cause a specific, adverse impact on public health or safety — defined as a significant, quantifiable, direct, and unavoidable impact based on objective written public health or safety standards existing when the application was deemed complete (objective = uniformly verifiable by external benchmark, per HAA §65589.5(h)(9)). Specific adverse impacts, while intended to arise infrequently (HAA §65589.5(a)(3)), are precisely what objective safety standards like the 50-foot creek setback are designed to prevent.
The reduced buffer is quantifiable via site plans. It will measurably increase runoff velocity and bank instability in the Arroyo Grande Creek watershed, posing a direct risk to the creek, downstream properties, and public infrastructure. This is not subjective neighborhood character — it is a verifiable safety concern tied to an objective code standard. The "deemed complete" lock-in and prior 2015 variance history do not override the resulting unmitigable impact. Mitigation conditions do not fully cure the encroachment. Council therefore has authority — and the evidentiary basis — to deny or condition the project at lower density.
3. The Parking Concession (Reduction to 31 Garages) Creates Specific Adverse Impacts on Public Safety
The Resolution now relies on the applicant's late March 18 revision to 31 private garages only.
However, even this reduced supply is inadequate for 92 units (residents + visitors + service needs). Historical evidence — including the 2004 Orosz Engineering report (chronic 85–95%+ occupancy and management issues under lower-demand uses) and the 2015 staff memo acknowledging site constraints — demonstrates longstanding parking shortages at this shared location.
Adding high-occupancy residential use will exacerbate spillover onto James Way and adjacent properties (Curl Fitness, medical offices, Best Western). This creates quantifiable safety
impacts: blocked emergency vehicle access, congestion, and pedestrian hazards, particularly for older adults at nearby medical and fitness facilities. These tie directly to objective Fire Code and circulation standards.
Recorded easements (2000/2008 reciprocal agreement benefiting Curl Fitness; 2015 Best Western settlement granting primary rights to ~18 spaces with towing/signage) burden the site. Confirmed lack of agreements with the hotel and church further undermines enforceability. Per HAA §65589.5(j)(1) and the HCD letter, when a concession causes a specific adverse impact based on objective standards that cannot be mitigated short of denial or conditions, the City may act. The record provides the required preponderance of evidence.
4. Density Bonus Concessions and Waivers Cannot Override Specific Adverse Impacts; Mixed-Use Classification Is Improper
Concessions (height, parking reduction, landscaping) and waivers (building size, FAR, open space) are mandatory only if no specific adverse impact or other statutory exception applies (§65915(d)(4) & (e)). The creek setback and parking issues meet those exceptions.
Additionally, treating the 100% residential project as "mixed-use" under AGMC §16.04.070 is incorrect. The definition requires an on-site combination of commercial and residential uses.
Mere adjacency to existing commercial buildings plus shared access does not qualify — especially without enforceable parking agreements. This misclassification affects covered parking requirements (§16.56.060(e)) and the intent of the Office Mixed Use (OMU) zone.
Recommendation
I respectfully request that the City Council not adopt the prepared Resolution and instead:
Tentatively uphold Appeal Case 26-001 (Alternative 3); and Direct staff to return with a denial resolution containing detailed written findings that (1) the project fails PRC §21080.66 eligibility due to the Meadow Creek boundary, and (2) it would cause specific adverse impacts on public safety (creek erosion/flood risk and parking/emergency access) that cannot be mitigated short of denial or redesign at lower density.
Thank you for your time and careful consideration of these objective, evidence-based concerns.
Sincerely,
Dana Allen Mallett

Just be clear you are not going to be winning any votes by supporting this project.
Truthfully, you are mayor by default. You would not implement a discount on the water for residents that are low income but you support an illegal project that claims to benefit low income residents.
I respectfully submit this opposition to the staff-recommended Resolution denying Appeal Case 26-001 and approving CUP 25-001 for the proposed 92-unit Creekside Junction project. While I recognize California's housing needs and the project's 15% very low-income component, state law — including the Housing
Accountability Act (HAA, Gov. Code §65589.5) and the AB 130 statutory CEQA exemption (PRC §21080.66) — still requires strict compliance with objective standards and prohibits approval when a project would cause specific, unmitigable adverse impacts on public health and safety.
After reviewing the March 24, 2026 staff report, supplemental materials, the prepared Resolution, and the HCD letter, I urge the City Council to exercise its de novo review authority and select Alternative 3: tentatively uphold the appeal and direct staff to return with a resolution denying the CUP, supported by detailed written findings.
1. The Project Does Not Qualify for the AB 130 Statutory CEQA Exemption (PRC §21080.66)
The Resolution relies on the one-quarter-mile radius test (~77% urban uses) to satisfy PRC §21080.66(a)(3). However, the exemption is intended for projects substantially surrounded by urban development. Meadow Creek forms the entire eastern boundary — a natural riparian corridor, not an "urban use" as defined in PRC §21072 (residential, commercial, institutional, retail, etc.). This major natural feature breaks urban continuity along a full side of the site perimeter.
The biological studies claim "no impact" on riparian habitat by labeling features "upland," yet the buildings sit only 32–35 feet from the creek edge. Increased impervious surfaces will generate additional runoff, creating indirect risks of erosion, sedimentation, and water-quality degradation. The Resolution's mitigation conditions (e.g., stormwater filtration and vegetation management) acknowledge potential effects rather than eliminate them. Statutory exemptions must be strictly construed; the project does not meet the "substantially surrounded by urban uses" intent. At minimum, an Initial Study is required. The Class 32 categorical exemption fallback also fails due to unusual circumstances (creek adjacency and documented parking/traffic strain).
2. The 32–35 Foot Creek Setback Creates a Specific Adverse Impact on Public Health and Safety (HAA §65589.5(j)(1)) AGMC §16.44.050 imposes a minimum 50-foot setback from the top of bank or edge of vegetation to protect against erosion, flooding, and riparian degradation.
The project proposes only 32–35 feet, with taller building sections closest to the creek.
As the HCD letter correctly reminds the City, HAA §65589.5(j)(1) allows denial or approval at lower density when the project would cause a specific, adverse impact on public health or safety — defined as a significant, quantifiable, direct, and unavoidable impact based on objective written public health or safety standards existing when the application was deemed complete (objective = uniformly verifiable by external benchmark, per HAA §65589.5(h)(9)). Specific adverse impacts, while intended to arise infrequently (HAA §65589.5(a)(3)), are precisely what objective safety standards like the 50-foot creek setback are
designed to prevent.
The reduced buffer is quantifiable via site plans. It will measurably increase runoff velocity and bank instability in the Arroyo Grande Creek watershed, posing a direct risk to the creek, downstream properties, and public infrastructure.
This is not subjective neighborhood character — it is a verifiable safety concern tied to an objective code standard. The "deemed complete" lock-in and prior 2015 variance history do not override the resulting unmitigable impact. Mitigation conditions do not fully cure the encroachment.

had to drive around the parking lot areas for 10 minutes. It wasn't until someone was leaving the parking lot that I was able to park! Not only was that frustrating to me. I also realized that getting in and out of the Parking lot is very challenging.
We have a lot of Seniors who work out at at Curl Fitness and visit their Doctors & have Medical appointments in the Medical Buildings located in the adjacent areas.
Many of them have physical conditions, yet they are working out at Curl Fitness to better their health. However, more frequently than we wish, an Ambulance must be called to help out someone at Curl Fitness. When an Ambulance is called, the Fire Department also arrives with it's Large Fire Engine Truck, Emergency vehicles & personnel. Unfortunately, Curl Fitness members have had Heart Attacks, Strokes, Fainting episodes, Falls with injuries to various areas of the body which require a Paramedic, EMT's & Firemen with a potential trip to the Emergency Room for further evaluation, treatment & Hospitalization. Unfortunately, sometimes (although rare) someone may even Die!
I believe that the proposal of a 92 Housing Development would make our current parking lot even more crowded, difficult to find parking Safely and even harder for an Ambulance, Big Fire Truck & Paramedic Unit to help someone in need of Emergent Medical help!
So, please listen to my plea and the alarm of others concerning the potential negative effects of the proposed 92 Housing Unit Development. Including major increased difficulty and safety when trying to park but also, the safety of all those extra families packed in an already very busy & full Parking lot!
I understand that the Developer doesn't even live here! What is his motive? He doesn't appear to really care about the Safety and Life Style of living in Arroyo Grande but, he does seem interested in making money!
Please vote No to this Huge 92 Housing Unite Development.
Thank you for your Service and your time.
Sincerely,
Julia Korba - a concerned resident of Arroyo Grande and member at Curl Fitness.

Second, this site plan references a parking agreement with the church across the street. The pastor of that church confirmed on the record at the prior hearing that no such agreement exists and that he has no intention of entering into one.
Third, this site plan references shared parking arrangements with the hotel. The hotel owner has confirmed that no such agreement exists. To the contrary, the hotel owner holds a primary legal right to 18 of those stalls under a 2015 recorded settlement agreement — a right he has formally exercised by posting no parking signs on all 18 of those stalls just last week.
The entire parking solution for this project is built on agreements that do not exist.
Additionally, this site plan shows the location of Building A. Building A's parcel was never a party to the shared parking agreement governing this center and therefore has no legal parking rights anywhere within the center. According to the applicant's own submitted square footage data, Building A represents over 75 percent of this project — approximately 70 of the 92 proposed residential units — with only 21 on-site garage spaces and zero legal access to any other parking anywhere in this center.
Exhibit 4 — Recorded Easement Documents
This exhibit contains the recorded Reciprocal Access and Easement Agreement — Document Number 2000-030755 — on file with the San Luis Obispo County Recorder, as amended in 2008.
These documents establish binding easement rights that run with the land and are enforceable against all successors and assigns.
Building B is proposed to be constructed directly on top of recorded easement areas established under these agreements. You cannot legally build on land encumbered by a recorded easement held by other property owners. Building A has no legal parking rights in this center. Building B cannot legally be built where it is proposed. This project is legally infeasible on its face.
Conclusion
The four exhibits submitted with this public comment document conditions that are not speculative — they are real, observable, and photographically documented. The parking lot is already at capacity. Vehicles are already blocking emergency access routes. The project's parking solution is built entirely on agreements that do not exist. And the proposed buildings conflict with recorded easement rights that cannot be overridden by a conditional use permit.
The Housing Accountability Act defines a specific adverse impact as a significant, quantifiable, direct, and unavoidable impact based on objective, identified written public health or safety standards. The conditions documented in these exhibits meet that definition precisely. This Council has not only the legal authority to deny this project — it has the responsibility to do so.
I respectfully request that the City Council uphold the appeal and deny Conditional Use Permit 25-001, or alternatively require substantial redesign to address these fundamental legal and operational deficiencies before any approval is granted.
Furthermore, it is important to note that the developer communicated in writing to the other parcel owners within this center just this past week that he has already created a scaled-down alternative design for this project but cannot discuss it until after tonight's hearing. The developer himself has acknowledged that this project as submitted is not the right solution. There is a better path forward for housing on this site. But it is not this project.

To: Aileen Loe <[email protected]>, <[email protected]>, <[email protected]>, <[email protected]>
Of course Arroyo Grande needs more housing. But why I'm writing you is to suggest that the City Council adopt a SMART, SAFE, QUALITY OF LIFE approach to approving new housing developments.
In this case, the 92 unit project is TOO BIG, does not provide enough PARKING, and there are serious SAFETY issues that have been completely ignored.
The hotel and church will not offer parking to the developer.
There is NO street parking available (all curbs are red).
I understand that this project is NOT exempt from an EIR.
There are environment issues of bordering a creek that have not been addressed.
The developer OVERSTATED the number of PARKING spaces he is allotted for this project.
I URGE you to go to the site at any time of the day to see how there is already an OVERFLOW parking situation at this site due to the fitness center and medical office patrons.
The fact that there is already an OVERFLOW situation would create an impossible parking problem for members of the fitness center (I am a member of this fitness center), patients of the medical facilities and of course residents of the 92 unit development if built.
This fitness center is a HOT SPOT of HEALTHY activity for community members and the medical buildings are of critical importance to all area residents. Being able to PARK in this center and not be denied access is a huge QUALITY OF LIFE issue. Please go visit the site and see for yourself.
Please vote NO on the number of units being proposed. Please pay attention to the QUALITY OF LIFE, HEALTH, SAFETY of all the residents using these businesses in this center.

Please stop this ill conceived project.

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Perez, Interim Director of Community Development BY: Patrick Holub, Associate Planner
SUBJECT: Architectural Review 25-005; Public Art on Private Property; Location – 201 E. Branch St.; Applicant – Monarch Books, Taneesha Regez DATE: April 14, 2026
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Adopt a Resolution denying Architectural Review 25-005 for a proposed mural at 201 East Branch Street; and
2) Find that the denial of the proposed mural is not a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because CEQA does not apply to projects which a public agency disapproves or rejects (Pub. Resources Code §21080(b)(5); State CEQA Guidelines, §15270(a)), and the denial will not have direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect environmental impacts (State CEQA Guidelines, §15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3); § 15378).
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
No financial impact.
BACKGROUND:
The applicant, Monarch Books, proposes to paint a mural on the west side of the building located at 201 E. Branch St, adjacent to the City-owned walkway between 133 East Branch Street and the subject property (Attachment 2). The walkway provides pedestrian access from East Branch Street to the parking areas located behind the buildings that front East Branch Street. The proposed mural meets the definition of public art and is subject to the City’s Public Art Guidelines and Public Art Donation Program1(“the Guidelines”).
The Guidelines were most recently updated on May 14th2, 2024, when City Council adopted Resolution 5358. The stated purpose of the Guidelines is to establish a

framework to facilitate and encourage property owners to provide outdoor public art. The Guidelines define "Public Art" as art located either:
1. On private property with a non-residential land use that is visible from a public right-of-way or public property; or
2. In the adjacent public right of way; or
3. On property owned or managed by the City of Arroyo Grande (City), that is openly displayed to the public without charge.
The Guidelines establish the City's goals regarding art that is publicly displayed and accessible to the public. The City recognizes that art and artistic expression is a protected activity and these Guidelines are not intended to unduly restrict creative expression or limit the types of public art possible. Rather, they are intended to facilitate and encourage the best possible combination of sites and artwork and help to guide what is essentially a form of communication between the artist and the community.
The Guidelines also describe the approval process and selection criteria for public art proposals. Under the amended guidelines, all public art projects require review by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC), which makes a recommendation to the City Council. Decisions by the City Council shall be based on compliance with the selection criteria.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
Project Description
The proposed mural would measure approximately 150 square feet, with dimensions of 10 feet in height by 15 feet in width. The mural area is calculated by enclosing the outer limits of the text that distinguishes the mural from its background within a single continuous rectangular perimeter. The focal point of the mural is a navy circle approximately five feet in diameter, centered at mid-wall height and inscribed with creamcolored text reading: “What’s your story?” The text is surrounded by imagery that add visual interest, including a Monarch butterfly, bird, rabbit sitting atop a stack of books, horse, UFO, and ocean imagery including a whale, waves, and sailing ship. There is a silhouetted figure shown on the drawing that will not be included in the mural. The presence of the figure is intended to show where members of the public may stand for photos with the “selfie wall.”
The applicant also proposes painting the remainder of the western wall in the color “Hale Navy” to match the color of the front façade. This paint color, described as a shade of navy with a classic maritime feel, was found to be consistent with the Design Guidelines and Standards for the Historic Character Overlay District (D-2.4)3 by the ARC on June 26, 20234. Figure 1 below depicts the proposed mural.

Review Process Under Public Art Guidelines
Following an initial determination on the completeness of the application by the Community Development Department, the ARC reviews all public art applications and makes a recommendation to the City Council. The Selection Criteria, which both ARC and the City Council will use to review applications, is discussed below.
Architectural Review Committee (ARC)
The ARC reviewed the proposal at the regular meeting on November 3, 20255. The Committee was supportive of the location near a public walkway and the intent to create public art that engages the community and creates conversation. The ARC commented6 that the fonts and colors are appropriate and that murals are consistent with the historic period. The ARC recommended approval of the proposal as presented.

April 14, 2026
Subsequent to ARC’s review of the proposal, concerns were expressed about the imagery relating to products sold by the business. In that review, it was determined that the imagery is closely related to the products sold by the business and is in conflict with selection criterion 7.e. of the Guidelines. Staff recommended that the applicant consider minor changes to the artwork to alleviate this concern. However, the applicant has decided against modifying the proposal prior to City Council’s consideration of the application.
Selection Criteria
The Guidelines state that certain selection criteria (the “Selection Criteria”) shall be the basis for all decisions on public art applications. The first seven criteria apply to all public art applications, and the final criterion is specific to proposals in the D-2.4 Historic Character Overlay District. The Selection Criteria are as follows:
1. Evaluation of artistic excellence, examining:
a. The artist’s qualifications, including education, training, experience, body of work, recognition of the artist, and the consistency of the artist’s qualifications with the stated goals of the project;
b. The artist’s record of previous collaboration with other agencies, organizations, artists, fabricators, or installers to achieve a successful result in implementing the proposed project;
c. The artist’s experience working in the public realm; d. To the extent applicable, the artist’s previous proven successful experience in creating, producing or otherwise implementing projects similar to the one proposed;
e. The original nature of the proposed concept;
f. The inherent artistic quality and aesthetic merit of the work;
2. Appropriateness of scale, form, material, content and design relative to the immediate neighborhood and environment; no mural shall be approved if the mural, as proposed, would create an objective risk to public health, safety, or welfare (e.g. a mural near a roadway would be rejected for the use of reflective materials, like mirrors, which could cause a distraction to drivers). Scale is defined as the relative size of a building element in relation to other forms and the human body. Form is the shape or configuration of the artwork;
3. Appropriateness of proposed materials in regard to structural and surface integrity.
Materials should be considered in the context of ability to deter against vandalism, withstand weathering, and maintain the intended design;
4. Ease of maintenance and longevity of the proposed materials;
5. Appropriateness of the proposed method of installation of the artwork with consideration given to the safety and structural factors involved in installation;
6. Location, considering the intended audience for the proposal, whether the public will be a captive audience or whether a person would need to take affirmative steps

to view the project. Consideration shall be given to whether the mural would be in an area typically accessed or viewable by minors;
7. A mural shall not be approved if it includes:
a. Copyrighted work without permission of the holder of the copyright. b. Obscene materials.
c. Defamatory content.
d. Fighting words or advocates imminent lawless action. e. Content, including but not limited to, words, symbols, signs, trademarks, or references to products or services provided on the premises. Such content meets the Arroyo Grande Municipal Code (AGMC) definition for signage, as regulated by AGMC Chapter 16.60;
8. Public Art proposed in the D-2.4 Historic Character Overlay District is also subject to the following criteria:
a. An identified relationship to the social, cultural, and historical identity of the area;
b. An identified relationship to the site's existing architectural features; c. The nature of the site's surrounding neighborhood and potential impact of the public art project on residents, businesses, and existing works of art or design elements within the site's vicinity.
Findings
Staff is able to make the required findings that the mural is consistent with the Selection Criteria described by the Guidelines, except for finding 7 relating to products or services sold on site. Staff’s analysis of the findings is as follows:
1. The artist, Marmalade Mural Company, has completed numerous projects with similar scopes and scale and has collaborated with dozens of public and private agencies to complete similar projects throughout the country. Specifically, the artist has completed numerous examples of highly visible public wall murals painted directly on brick. Examples include work done at SLO County Airport, the SLO Ranch Market and SLODOCO.
2. The proposal to paint a wall mural, as recommended by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) is appropriate for the location in terms of form, material and scale. The proposed location being a public walkway will not endanger the public due to being oriented for pedestrian viewers and will not impact the safety of passing vehicles on Branch Street, nor will it endanger pedestrians viewing the mural. The artwork's objective, which is to serve as a "selfie spot" ensures that the scale of the mural will be an appropriate scale.
3. The proposed use of exterior-rated paint is intended to maintain the durability of the artwork over time. After completion of the artwork, a clear coat preventing vandalism will be applied to further protect the artwork.
4. The proposed use of exterior-rated paint was selected with ease of maintenance and longevity in mind and are intended for the proposed method of installation.

City Council
Architectural Review 25-005; Public Art on Private Property; Location – 201 E.
Branch St.; Applicant – Monarch Books, Taneesha Regez
April 14, 2026
The use of a protective clear coat will further increase the longevity of the artwork and dramatically reduce maintenance needs.
5. The proposed method of painting the mural has been selected to consider safety and structural factors involved in installation. The artist will be required to provide a pedestrian detour plan if their proposal involves the closure of any public sidewalks and, therefore, will not contribute to an unsafe situation for the artist nor the public during the creation of the mural.
6. The proposed artwork, visible to the general public, has been designed to reflect the broad interests of the public and is intended to attract visitors to the Village by providing a backdrop for photographs.
7. The artwork, as proposed, contains imagery and elements that directly relate to the products and services offered by the business. Specifically, the mural contains images of books, which are the primary product offered at this retail business. The depiction of a monarch butterfly makes reference to the business’ name, Monarch Books. The City’s mural regulations allow for the creation of art in the community, but the City, with this criterion, intends to preserve its zoning authority over signs applicable to commercial businesses in the City. By referencing the name of the business with the monarch butterfly and including a book, the property owner creates signage that advertises their business name (“Monarch Books”) and the products sold on the premises (books). Signage like this must comply with the City’s regulations on commercial signage contained in Chapter 16.60 of the AGMC. (See AGMC § 16.60.020) For this reason, the proposal is not consistent with criterion 7.e of the Guidelines.
8. The proposed artwork has an identified relationship to the identity of the area and compliments the existing architecture, which includes a painted brick wall. The installation of a painted wall mural in this location will complement the character of the existing built environment and will have a positive impact on the Village as a whole by attracting new visitors and providing visual appeal to a walkway with public access.
In its review of the application, City Council shall consider any material submitted by the applicant, city staff, the administrative record of the decision on the application, and evidence presented at the hearing. The applicant shall be given a reasonable time to present their case. Using the Selection Criteria as the basis for its decision, the City Council may:
1. Request that the applicant clarify its proposal or redesign and resubmit its proposal to ARC or City Council. If the City Council requests that the applicant resubmit the proposal to ARC, the resubmitted proposal shall be reviewed as if a new application; or
2. Approve the proposal, providing a written explanation of the basis for approval through the Selection Criteria; or
3. Deny the proposal, providing a written explanation of the basis for denial through the Selection Criteria.

All decisions of the City Council are final and conclusive.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Adopt the attached Resolution denying the project;
2. Direct the applicant to redesign and resubmit the project;
3. Do not adopt the prepared Resolution; or
4. Provide other direction to staff.
ADVANTAGES:
Denial of the application will result in the mural being inconsistent with the adopted Public Art Guidelines and uphold the Public Art Guidelines.
DISADVANTAGES:
A denial will not allow for installation of public art in a highly visible location, but reinforces the selection criteria, specifically criterion 7, which prevents murals from serving as additional signage or advertisement for businesses.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Denial of the project is not a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because CEQA does not apply to projects which a public agency disapproves or rejects (Pub. Resources Code §21080(b)(5); State CEQA Guidelines, §15270(a)), and the denial will not have or reasonably foreseeable indirect environmental impacts (State CEQA Guidelines, §15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3); § 15378.
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION AND COMMENTS:
The Agenda was posted at City Hall and on the City’s website in accordance with Government Code Section 54954.2.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARROYO
GRANDE DENYING ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW 25-005 FOR A
PROPOSED MURAL AT 201 EAST BRANCH STREET
WHEREAS, the City’s Architectural Review Committee (ARC) reviewed and recommended that the City Council approve the proposed painting of a mural at 201 East Branch Street (“project”) on November 3, 2025, in accordance with the City’s Public Art Guidelines and Public Art Donation Program (the “Guidelines”); and WHEREAS, the applicant for the proposed mural is “Monarch Books”, which operates a bookstore; and
WHEREAS, subsequent to the ARC’s review, it was noted that the mural did not satisfy Selection Criterion 7.e. of the Guidelines regarding imagery in the mural that relates directly to the products sold by the subject business; and WHEREAS, on April 14, 2026, the City Council reviewed the project at a duly noticed public hearing; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed this project in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) the State CEQA Guidelines, and the Arroyo Grande Rules and Procedures for Implementation of CEQA and determined that CEQA does not apply to projects which a public agency does not approve pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15270.
WHEREAS, all prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that:
1. Recitals. All recitals above are true and correct and hereby incorporated into reference.
2. CEQA. Denial of the proposed mural is not a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because CEQA does not apply to projects which a public agency disapproves or rejects (Pub. Resources Code §21080(b)(5); State CEQA Guidelines, §15270(a)), and the denial will not have direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect environmental impacts (State CEQA Guidelines, §15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3) 15378).
3. Architectural Review Findings:
1. The proposal is consistent with the architectural guidelines of the city, or guidelines prepared for the area in which the project is located; The proposal to paint a wall mural on a painted brick wall, and as recommended by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC), is consistent with all applicable architectural guidelines for the project. Painted wall murals are appropriate for this location due to the historical use of painted wall signs directly onto brick buildings. The colors and the content of the mural are
RESOLUTION NO.
PAGE 2
consistent with all relevant guidelines, including the City’s Design Guidelines and Standards for the Historic Character Overlay District (D-2.4).
2. The proposal is consistent with the text and maps of the Arroyo Grande general plan and this title;
The proposal, as recommended by the ARC, is consistent with the City’s General Plan, specifically the Economic Development Element, which emphasizes the implementation of public art.
3. The proposal will not be detrimental to the health, safety, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed project;
The proposal, as recommended by the ARC, will not be detrimental to the health of safety of the general public due to being designed with materials that are intended for use on outdoor walls. Further, the applicant will be required to implement appropriate safety measures for pedestrians while the work is occurring that will mitigate any potential safety issues during installation.
4. The general appearance of the proposal is in keeping with the character of the neighborhood;
The appearance of the artwork, as recommended by the ARC, is in keeping with the character of the neighborhood. The inclusion of whimsical elements provide visual intrigue in an area frequented by members of the public and will increase the visual interest of the area, which is already intended for pedestrians and public engagement.
5. The proposal is not detrimental to the orderly and harmonious development of the city;
The approval of this artwork will not have any effect on the harmonious development of the City due to being consistent with the adopted guidelines for public art. Further, the installation of public art in the Village will promote business development and improve the character of the entire corridor.
6. The proposal will not impair the desirability of investment or occupation in the neighborhood.
The proposal, as recommended by the ARC, will not impair the desirability of the neighborhood due to being consistent with the adopted guidelines for public art. Further, the installation of public art in an area designed for pedestrian activity increases the visual intrigue and creates a sense of community that will promote further investment in the neighborhood.
4. Public Art Selection Criteria Findings:
RESOLUTION NO.
PAGE 3
1. Evaluation of artistic excellence, examining:
a. The artist’s qualifications, including: education, training, experience, body of work, recognition of the artist, and the consistency of the artist’s qualifications with the stated goals of the project; b. The artist’s record of previous collaboration with other agencies, organizations, artists, fabricators, or installers to achieve a successful result in implementing the proposed project;
c. The artist’s experience working in the public realm; d. To the extent applicable, the artist’s previous proven successful experience in creating, producing or otherwise implementing projects similar to the one proposed;
e. The original nature of the proposed concept;
f. The inherent artistic quality and aesthetic merit of the work; The artist, Marmalade Mural Company, has completed numerous projects with similar scopes and scale and has collaborated with dozens of public and private agencies to complete similar projects throughout the country.
Specifically, the artist has completed numerous examples of highly visible public wall murals painted directly on brick. Examples include work done at SLO County Airport, the SLO Ranch Market and SLODOCO.
2. Appropriateness of scale, form, material, content and design relative to the immediate neighborhood and environment; no mural shall be approved if the mural, as proposed, would create an objective risk to public health, safety, or welfare (e.g. a mural near a roadway would be rejected for the use of reflective materials, like mirrors, which could cause a distraction to drivers).
Scale is defined as the relative size of a building element in relation to other forms and the human body. Form is the shape or configuration of the artwork;
The proposal to paint a wall mural, as recommended by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) is appropriate for the location in terms of form, material and scale. The proposed location being a public walkway will not endanger the public due to being oriented for pedestrian viewers and will not impact the safety of passing vehicles on Branch Street, nor will in endanger pedestrians viewing the mural. The artwork's objective, which is to serve as a "selfie spot" ensures that the scale of the mural will be an appropriate scale.
3. Appropriateness of proposed materials in regards to structural and surface integrity. Materials should be considered in the context of ability to deter against vandalism, withstand weathering, and maintain the intended
RESOLUTION NO.

design;
The proposed use of exterior-rated paint is intended to maintain the durability of the artwork over time. After completion of the artwork, a clear coat preventing vandalism will be applied to further protect the artwork.
4. Ease of maintenance and longevity of the proposed materials; The proposed use of exterior-rated paint was selected with ease of maintenance and longevity in mind and are intended for the proposed method of installation. The use of a protective clear coat will further increase the longevity of the artwork and dramatically reduce maintenance needs.
5. Appropriateness of the proposed method of installation of the artwork with consideration given to the safety and structural factors involved in installation; The proposed method of painting the mural has been selected to consider safety and structural factors involved in installation. The artist will be required to provide a pedestrian detour plan if their proposal involves the closure of any public sidewalks and, therefore, will not contribute to an unsafe situation for the artist nor the public during the creation of the mural.
6. Location, considering the intended audience for the proposal, whether the public will be a captive audience or whether a person would need to take affirmative steps to view the project. Consideration shall be given to whether the mural would be in an area typically accessed or viewable by minors; The proposed artwork, visible to the general public, has been designed to reflect the broad interests of the public and is intended to attract visitors to the Village by providing a backdrop for photographs.
7. A mural shall not be approved if it includes:
a. Copyrighted work without permission of the holder of the copyright. b. Obscene materials.
c. Defamatory content.
d. Fighting words or advocates imminent lawless action. e. Content, including but not limited to, words, symbols, signs, trademarks, or references to products or services provided on the premises. Such content meets the Arroyo Grande Municipal Code (AGMC) definition for signage, as regulated by AGMC Chapter 16.60;
The artwork, as proposed, contains imagery and elements that directly relate to the products and services offered by the business. Specifically, the mural contains images of books, which are the primary product offered at this retail

business. The depiction of a monarch butterfly makes reference to the business’ name, Monarch Books. The City’s mural regulations allow for the creation of art in the community, but the City, with this criterion, intends to preserve its zoning authority over signs applicable to commercial businesses in the City. By referencing the name of the business with the monarch butterfly and including a book, the property owner creates signage that advertises their business name (“Monarch Books”) and the products sold on the premises (books). Signage like this must comply with the City’s regulations on commercial signage contained in Chapter 16.60 of the AGMC. (See AGMC § 16.60.020) For this reason, the proposal is not consistent with criterion 7.e of the Guidelines.
8. Public Art proposed in the D-2.4 Historic Character Overlay District is also subject to the following criteria:
a. An identified relationship to the social, cultural and historical identity of the area;
b. An identified relationship to the site's existing architectural features; c. The nature of the site's surrounding neighborhood and potential impact of the public art project on residents, businesses, and existing works of art or design elements within the site's vicinity.
The proposed artwork has an identified relationship to the identity of the area and compliments the existing architecture, which includes a painted brick wall. The installation of a painted wall mural in this location will complement the character of the existing built environment and will have a positive impact on the Village as a whole by attracting new visitors and providing visual appeal to a walkway with public access.
5. Severability. If any section, division, sentence, clause, phrase or portion of this resolution or the document in the record in support of this resolution is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable, unconstitutional or otherwise void, that determination shall not affect the validity of the remaining sections, divisions, sentences, clauses, or phrases of this resolution.
6. Effect. The Council of the City of Arroyo Grande hereby denies the project as described and shown in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference with the above findings, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

Foot traffic: Murals draw visitors to commercial corridors, benefiting every surrounding business — not just the one on whose wall they appear.
Vacancy reduction: Mural arts programs in cities like Philadelphia and Los Angeles have been directly linked to lower commercial vacancy rates.
Property values: A 2019 Urban Land Institute study found that public art increases adjacent property values and retail sales in commercial districts.
Free marketing: Murals designed as photo destinations generate organic social media impressions that no ad budget can replicate. A well-placed selfie wall is free destination marketing for the entire Village.
Art changes how people experience a neighborhood. It gives it identity, sparks conversation, and makes people want to stick around a little longer. Arroyo Grande has an opportunity to say yes to something creative, community-forward, and genuinely inspiring. I hope you will.
Thank you for your time and service to our community.
