City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 4.
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Scott Wolfe, City Manager
Meeting Date: August 24, 2026
Subject: Consideration of First Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement Between the City of Goleta and the City of Buellton ______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
The City of Buellton’s Library has been operated by the City of Goleta since 2019. The contract which governs that operation currently was enacted on June 26, 2025, following the move of the library facility to its current location at 202 Dairyland Road.
The First Amendment to the Agreement (Attachment 1) contains two changes two terms.
The first change pertains to the cost of services. The budgeted amount for services in FY 2025-26 was $287,962, with the original budget amount for FY 2026-27 being $293,751.
The new contract amount for FY 2026-27 would total $323,198.
The second change to the Agreement eliminates Exhibit A “Statement of Work” of the original Agreement and replaces it with Exhibit A-1 “Statement of Work” to more accurately reflect the change in services to be provided under the amended agreement. The changes in the statement of work reflect requested changes to staffing of the Library by the City, which include the expansion of service hours to include four hours of operation on Sundays and Librarian staffing with the ability to provide enhanced programming.
The changes made have been requested by the City Council, and the currently adopted budget was prepared anticipating this increase in costs. Therefore, staff brings this Amendment to Agreement to the City Council for consideration and approval.
FISCAL IMPACT
If approved, the anticipated impact to the General Fund would be $323,198. The budget for Library Contract Services for FY 2026-27 is $353,650. No adjustment to the General Fund Budget will be required as a result.

This section of costs accounts for expenditures that can be directly charged against the library and clearly identified. Major costs include Black Gold Fees, IT services, courier delivery services, and GOLETA’s management fee. Subject to future changes, due to changes in cost of contracts fees, or unanticipated direct costs.

4. Capital Equipment/Outlay.
This category is the estimated direct cost of book acquisitions (including processing fees) or other future capital outlay.
5. Management Fee.
The management fee is the estimated cost of support and administration provided by GOLETA support department staff. It includes support from General Government, Finance, Human Resources and Goleta Library. The management fee is calculated using a time and materials survey cost model that incorporates the hourly labor and benefit rate of GOLETA staff that would be directly supporting the BUELLTON library. The model identifies direct tasks performed by staff and other direct costs provided to the library branches with reasonable assumptions. The cost model will increase 3% annually and will never exceed the maximum allowance of the total budget per the County Agreement for Library Services.
6. Annual Reporting.
Upon completion of the fiscal year, any remaining funds from the City of BUELLTON will be deposited into a Fund Balance. The purpose of the Fund Balance will build a six month operation reserve to be utilized to cover any expenses related to the BUELLTON Library in the following scenarios:
A. The program experiences unbudgeted expenses that are agreed upon in writing by both BUELLTON and GOLETA, and/or
B. There is an unforeseen change to the Per Capita funding from the County of Santa Barabara, and/or
C. The City of BUELLTON decide to take on Library Services and terminate the contract, there would be sufficient funding to close down the operations for transition, and/or
D. The City of BUELLTON elect to request a reimbursement of the funds for other Library related business.
Annually, representatives from the City of GOLETA’s will provide BUELLTON with a report on expenses and fund balance. This report will be in writing, but BUELLTON may request a formal presentation to their City Council. This presentation can occur no sooner than October of the year following the fiscal year operations.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Andrea Keefer, Planning Director
Meeting Date: August 24, 2026
Subject: Ordinance No. 26-07 - “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Buellton, California, Re-Adopting Chapter 8.12 of the Buellton Municipal Code Pertaining to the 2025 California Fire Code as Adopted and Amended by the County of Santa Barbara” (Second Reading)
BACKGROUND
On August 10, 2026, the City Council conducted the first reading of Ordinance No. 26-07 to adopt by reference changes to the Santa Barbara County Fire Code, including an updated fee schedule. Having conducted the first reading and properly provided notice of a Public Hearing for the second reading pursuant to Government Code sections 50022.2 and 6066, it is now appropriate to hold a Public Hearing before deciding on the adoption by reference of the County Fire Code.
The City contracts with the County of Santa Barbara for all fire related services, including emergency response and fire inspection services. As such, the City has adopted the California Fire Code as adopted and amended by Chapter 15 of the Santa Barbara County Code as the fire code of the City of Buellton.
As a housekeeping item, the City regularly updates its Municipal Code to reflect the most current versions of the California Fire Code and Chapter 15 of the Santa Barbara County Code. The Santa Barbara County Fire Department recently adopted changes to Chapter 15 of the Santa Barbara County Code. These changes included adoption of the 2025 California Fire Code and portions of the 2024 International Fire Code. Also included in this update are changes to the adopted fee schedule for planning, permitting and inspection services through the Fire Department. It has been over a decade since the fees were last updated, and this update was necessary to provide these services.
A copy of the adopted County Ordinance is included as Attachment 1. The proposed City ordinance incorporates by reference all changes to Chapter 15 of the Santa Barbara County Code that were made through the adoption of the County Ordinance. 71 of 164
Ordinance No. 26-07 Page 2 August 24, 2026
The following are the proposed changes to Section 8.12.020 (new text is underlined and deleted text is in strikeout):

The 2022 2025 Edition of the California Fire Code as adopted and amended by the Santa Barbara County board of supervisors as Chapter 15 of the Santa Barbara County Code is hereby ratified and adopted by reference as the fire code of the city.
The adoption of this ordinance is perfunctory and is required to comply with the requirements of the Santa Barbara County Fire Protection District and allow for the provision of service to the City by the District. A Fire District staff member is expected to be in attendance at the /City Council Meeting to answer any specific questions that the City Council may have.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), under CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommend that the Mayor open the public hearing and consider the adoption of Ordinance No. 26-07 - “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Buellton, California, Re-Adopting Chapter 8.12 of the Buellton Municipal Code Pertaining to the 2025 California Fire Code as Adopted and Amended by the County of Santa Barbara” by title only and waive further reading.

To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Scott Wolfe, City Manager
Meeting Date: August 24, 2026
Subject: Selection of Vendor for Drone Show during Winter Fest Event ______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
At its June 25, 2026, meeting, the City Council requested staff to solicit bids for a drone show during the December Winterfest event. At its August 10 meeting, the City Council continued this item to the meeting of August 24. The Council also asked for sample images illustrating the visual differences between drone shows using different numbers of drones.
Images will be presented at the meeting.
Drone shows are becoming increasingly popular and often serve as highlights for evening events. Costs for such shows can range from $15,000 to upwards of $50,000, depending on the individual vendor and the number of drones used in the show. Larger numbers of drones provide a more detailed and spectacular show. Shows typically run from about 10 to as much as 14 minutes.
Costs for a drone show would be paid from the City’s General Fund, but if the City Council desired, the City’s expenditure could be significantly reduced through the sale of sponsorships to local businesses.
Staff reached out to several vendors of such shows and obtained proposals for a show on December 6, 2026, the date of this year’s Winterfest.
Drone Show Proposals - December 2026

Drone Show Vendor Selection Page 2 August 24, 2026
As can be seen in the matrix above, the costs for shows are very similar, particularly between Droneshow.com and Electric Sky, with Electric Sky being slightly less than Droneshow.com for the mid-sized show (despite the fact that Electric Sky is proposing 300 drones, vs Droneshow.com’s 250) and Droneshow.com being slightly less expensive than Electric Sky for the large sized show of 400 drones. Electric Sky has been used by some cities locally and is based in Los Angeles. Droneshow.com is located in St. George, Utah, but does shows all over the western United States. Both operators have extensive experience with event shows, with Droneshow.com seemingly geared toward larger events, while Electric Sky has experience with smaller events such as Winterfest. Both vendors are highly rated with many positive reviews.
Each of the vendors will provide all necessary equipment and personnel to operate the show and will obtain FAA permits as required. In addition to the flight crew, there will also be visual observers monitoring the show to ensure that safety requirements are met, to include keeping restricted areas clear.
The show will require a launch area which will need to be cordoned off to ensure spectators’ safety and security for the drones. When in flight, the drones will occupy a significantly larger area that must be kept clear of persons and moving vehicles. This may require limiting access to or from the overflow parking area (Library parking lot) during the 10-15 minute flight time of the show.
In response to City Council direction, staff reached out to Kathy Vreeland of the Buellton Chamber of Commerce/Visitors Bureau, which puts on the Winterfest event. Mrs.
Vreeland indicated that a drone show put on by the City would represent a welcome addition to the event and expressed no objections. Event scheduling and timing details with the organizers and selected drone show operation team will be worked out as the event date approaches.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of this item will result in an impact to the City’s General Fund in the amount of the cost of the size of the show selected. In anticipation of this discussion, the proposed FY 2026-2027 budget includes a $50,000 line item for a drone show.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council discuss this matter and direct staff as appropriate. Staff recommend that the City Council select a vendor as well as a preferred show size and authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement for service that is in a form acceptable to the City Attorney.

City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No.: 9
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Scott Wolfe, City Manager
Meeting Date: August 24, 2026
Subject: Consideration of Law Enforcement Service Alternatives ______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
The City’s contract with the County of Santa Barbara Sheriff’s Office for law enforcement services expires on June 30, 2027. In light of this approaching expiration, staff presents the City Council with various alternatives for providing law enforcement services into Fiscal Year 2027-28 and beyond.
Buellton has been served by the Sheriff’s Office since the City’s incorporation in 1993 and has been provided with this service through several successive contracts. The current contract was entered into and effective as of July 1, 2023, and runs through June 30, 2027.
The initial year of the contract resulted in a cost to the City of $2,727,368. In the current fiscal year, which represents the last period of the original term of the 4-year agreement, the City’s contract cost (less the $255,400 cost of the Motor officer which was more recently added) is $3,243,055 (see Attachment 1). In total, the $3,498,455 cost of the Law Enforcement Contract constitutes more than 26% of the City’s budgeted General Fund expenditures for the fiscal year.
With such a large percentage of the City’s budget committed to Law Enforcement, and with costs consistently outpacing inflation, staff have been investigating options to find more cost-effective law enforcement service models even before the current contract with the Sheriff’s Office was negotiated.
One such model that has been investigated periodically involves standing up Buellton’s own police department. While such a model provides a high level of local control of law enforcement and allows a tailoring of services to specifically address local issues, the costs of such a model would far exceed the costs of a contract service model. Establishing a Buellton Police Department would necessitate increasing the City staff by at least 60% over what the City’s current staff size. Most of those additional positions would have pension costs higher than the existing staff due to their CalPERS status as “Safety” employees and would significantly increase the City’s legal costs involving both labor and liability issues.
131 of 164
Law Enforcement Alternatives Page 2 August 24, 2026
A more cost-effective approach to the “build-your-own” model (but likely still not as costeffective as a contract model) would be to partner with a neighboring jurisdiction, such as Solvang, to create a joint powers authority to provide police services. This is also an approach which has been looked at, as the City of Guadalupe reached out earlier this year as well with an initial proposal to create such a joint powers authority with Buellton and Solvang to create a multi-jurisdictional police department using their in-house department as a starting point. This approach may be viable in the long run but would likely take several years to come to agreements on the administrative details, legal authority structures, and recruitment to establish such a joint department.
In years leading up to the current contract, staff reached out to various potential partners seeking alternative service providers. Staff contacted the Cities of Santa Maria, Lompoc, and Guadalupe, as well as the California Highway Patrol for assistance. At the time, none of these jurisdictions were able to provide services to Buellton. While some expressions of desire to assist Buellton were given by these agencies, concerns with staffing levels, geographic separation from the main body of the police force, and political circumstances were cited as reasons for the inability to assist.
In early 2026, the City of Lompoc reached out to the Cities of Solvang and Buellton, indicating that circumstances had changed with their department which may allow them to provide police services to the cities. Subsequent conversations between the three cities have led to more serious consideration of the possibility of the City of Lompoc being a viable alternative to the Sheriff’s Office.
Since costs have long been a driving factor in Buellton’s search for alternative law enforcement service, there would be little interest in a provider which did not appear to provide better value to Buellton’s taxpayers than the Sheriff’s Office. While cost numbers are still being worked out, initial calculations provided by the City of Lompoc indicate that annual service to Buellton at a similar level to that currently provided by the Sheriff’s Office could be provided at a cost approximately $1 million less than the anticipated Sheriff’s Office cost (see Attachment 2, provided by the City of Lompoc).
Adjusting the apparent value is the staffing level which would be required for Lompoc to serve Buellton and Solvang. The cost savings identified above include the cost of a records technician for Buellton as the Sheriff’s contract does as well as the addition of a full-time Community Services Officer (which the current contract does not provide) but only includes the cost of one patrol officer. To maintain officer safety, each city would be required to have two patrol officers on duty at all times, rather than the single officer option provided by the Sheriff’s Office. Additionally, to support this model, Buellton and Solvang would need to share the costs of a 24/7 sergeant post and a lieutenant to oversee the operations of both cities. This would bring the actual cost up above the cost that the City might incur from the Sheriff's Office service, at least based upon the cost model of the existing agreement. The increase in costs can’t be precisely calculated at this point but could be about $700,000 more than the Sheriff’s Office contract amount under the current agreement.
132 of 164
Law Enforcement Alternatives Page 3 August 24, 2026
The expenses noted would be for ongoing operational costs, but a significant expenditure would be required to cover the costs of recruitment, equipment, vehicles, training, and other items required to expand department services to cover Buellton. These initial expenditures could exceed $2 million in up-front costs in addition to the operational costs before settling into the lower operational rate.
Cost considerations aside, there are services that the Sheriff’s Office can bring to bear that the City of Lompoc does not provide. While rarely used, resources such as aviation units, a bomb squad, and other assets and special teams are available through Sheriff’s Office service but may not be through a contract with another provider. While the City of Lompoc has a SWAT team, that team would be based in Lompoc, while the Sheriff’s Office has its Special Enforcement Team based centrally in the County inside Buellton’s city limits.
It is important to note that cost is not the only, nor even the primary factor when considering law enforcement service. Police services should be attuned to a community’s culture and desires for how law enforcement should take place. As such, if the City Council should decide to consider an alternative to the Sheriff’s Office as a provider, careful consideration should be given to the kind of service that the community would like to see. Familiarity in the community is a factor that many businesses and residents find builds trust in a police agency. Therefore, having officers or deputies who live in Buellton may be a consideration.
A similar consideration might be a provider’s willingness and ability to engage in active community-oriented policing to develop meaningful relationships between the police force and the community members. Such “cultural” concerns and desires are likely best explored through outreach efforts to the public which may include City staff, representatives from potential law enforcement contracting agencies, and possibly under the guidance of a City Council ad hoc committee.
There are too many factors to list in this report at this stage of consideration of alternative approaches to providing police services. The purpose of this report is to set the stage for the City’s next steps in ensuring quality law enforcement for our community. These steps might include one or more of the following alternatives:
1. Consider a re-negotiation of the Sheriff’s contract to take effect on July 1, 2027.
This may result in negotiations in conjunction with other contract cities (Solvang, Goleta, and/or Carpinteria) as has been done in the past, or on our own if the other cities decide to go in different directions.
2. Consider exercising the first of three available one-year extensions. These extensions are subject to mutual agreement between the City and the Sheriff’s Office.
3. Consider entering discussions with the City of Lompoc to further investigate whether the law enforcement services they offer might be a good fit for the City of Buellton and its needs.

Law Enforcement Alternatives Page 4 August 24, 2026
4. Approach the City of Solvang and/or another contract city to discuss the possibility of creating a joint police department through a joint powers agreement or other mechanism.
As this item is an initial discussion of a very complex topic, staff is not recommending that the City Council decide upon any of the alternatives immediately. Instead, staff would recommend that the City Council ask questions of staff and the law enforcement representatives that are expected to be in attendance to answer any concerns that you may individually have. Following this, if there is a desire to further investigate working with the City of Lompoc as a service provider, staff recommends that the City Council direct staff to reach out to both the Sheriff’s Office and the Lompoc Police Department to schedule outreach events to allow community members to educate themselves on the various alternatives and provide public input to help inform the City Council’s future decisions on the matter.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item, as presented. However, subsequent action on this issue will have significant fiscal impacts.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council discuss this matter and provide direction to staff as to next steps.

CITY OF BUELLTON
City Council Agenda Staff Report
City Manager Review: SW
Council Agenda Item No: 10
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Irma Tucker, Contract City Planner
Cara Miralles, Associate Planner
Meeting Date: August 24, 2026
Subject: Conceptual Review of 560 Avenue of Flags Mixed-Use Project
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
An application has been submitted for Conceptual Review (Case No. 26-CR-02) by property owner Joe Collins, Searidge Limited Partnership and agent Carol Florence, Oasis Associates (together, the “Applicant”) for a residential and commercial mixed-use project located at 560 Avenue of Flags. The proposed project site consists of the following two lots (Attachment 1 – Vicinity Map):
primary site is a currently vacant 0.78-acre lot, Assessor’s Parcel Number 137-170-011 adjacent lot is a 0.21-acre open space portion of an adjacent 3.63 acre parcel, Assessor’s Parcel Number 137-170-053, previously entitled and developed for existing multifamily use, known as the Avenue Heights Apartments.
The project site is designated and zoned General Commercial-CR and is within the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan Area, in District 2 – Public Events and Mixed Use (Downtown Core). Surrounding uses include the Farmhouse Motel to the north, Avenue Heights Apartments to the northeast and east, Hotel Hygge to the south, and Median 2 public parking lot to the west.
Project Description
The conceptual plans and project description are included in Attachments 2 and 3.
Proposed is a 4-story mixed-use building with a max height of 47 feet. The building would present a three-story elevation along Avenue of Flags and transition to four stories toward the interior of the site as the property slopes downward to the east. The project description states that “a contemporary interpretation of Art Deco architecture” is presented, as seen on the conceptual elevations, and does reflect some principles of Classic Art Deco with smooth stucco, vertical forms, geometric shapes, stepped parapets, low-relief decorative tile accents, and decorative metal railings.
The project plans reflect 2,800 square feet of ground-floor commercial frontage along Avenue of Flags, setback from the property line to allow landscape pockets with street trees and a wider pedestrian space in front of store entrances. Storefronts with windows and signage appear to reach around 15 feet high. Twenty-six (26) apartment units (28,600 sf) 138 of 164
560 Avenue of Flags Mixed-Use Project Page 2 August 24, 2026 Conceptual Review – City Council
are proposed (22 two-bedroom units and 4 three-bedroom units), to be located behind the commercial frontage on the ground floor and on the three upper floors. The project description also proposes 6,080 square feet of support/common area; the plans show a lounge and lobby areas on the ground floor, however the remaining common area are not specified. Vehicular access is from Avenue of Flags via an internal driveway shared with Avenue Heights Apartments.
The Applicant is proposing to utilize State Density Bonus Law in order to increase the allowable density and request certain concessions and incentives, obtain waivers or reductions of development standards and apply State parking standards. The project description states that per the State Density Bonus Law, the four proposed affordable units (2 very-low income and 2 moderate-income) would: qualify the development for an increase from 13 units at base density to 26 units; and could potentially enable the project to request the elimination of commercial parking requirements, reduced residential parking requirements, an increase in allowable building height, and reduction in the street-facing setback above the 2nd story. Staff has not reviewed the Density Bonus request to determine consistency with State law; the granting of such a request would be determined as part of a formal application submittal.
In terms of parking, 49 spaces are proposed, of which: 7 spaces are along a shared internal road leading to the Avenue Heights Apartments, 21 spaces are behind the ground floor residential units, 21 are on an open space portion of the adjacent parcel, and an additional 3 spaces are accessed from and partially located on Avenue Heights’ internal driveway. It appears that 24 are tandem parking spaces, where one vehicle would be lined up behind another in a parking space. The portion of the adjacent parcel being proposed for parking (APN 137-170-053) is part of the Avenue Heights Apartments project site for which a Final Development Plan (12-FDP-02) was approved by City Council in 2013. The Apartment Project site contains an existing basketball court which is proposed to be removed and tot lot proposed to remain. The modification to the adjacent parcel would necessitate a Development Plan Modification to the Avenue Heights Apartments entitlements (previously Buellton Apartments).
STAFF COMMENTS (preliminary)
1. This is not an official project submittal. The applicant is seeking initial input and direction from both the Planning Commission and City Council regarding the conceptual plans before full plans are drawn and a formal application is submitted. The Planning Commission conceptual review was held on August 6, 2026; Commissioner’s comments are summarized below.
2. Staff has not reviewed the plans for detailed compliance with the Municipal Code, General Plan, Avenue of Flags Specific Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Community Design Guidelines, State Density Bonus Law, or other applicable requirements.
3. Detailed review and analysis would occur when the formal project application is submitted and fees are paid;
a. The outcome of this review may result in changes to the site plan and project description
b. Staff will work with the City Attorney to determine the validity and consistency of the request to apply State Density Bonus Law.

560 Avenue of Flags Mixed-Use Project Page 3 August 24, 2026 Conceptual Review – City Council
4. The ultimate decision-making body for a formal application would be the City Council.
5. Based on information in the Applicant’s initial project description, the following preliminary permits are anticipated (subject to change upon formal submittal):
a. Final Development Plan – for Mixed-Use project on primary parcel b. Development Plan Modification re: Avenue Heights Apartments on adjacent parcel; for potential modification of approved entitlements (12-FDP-02) c. Lot Line Adjustment or Parcel Map – may be required to incorporate parking areas on adjacent Apartment parcel into Mixed-Use project site. d. Other – To be Determined
PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTS
Commissioner Campbell
1. Asked whether the 26 residential units were intended primarily as rental apartments. The applicant confirmed they would be rental units.
2. Asked for clarification regarding the building's four-story configuration, since the plans show only three distinct floor plans. The architect confirmed that the 3rd and 4th floors use essentially the same floor plan.
3. Said he liked the color palette and thought it fit the project.
4. Thought the applicant had done a good job incorporating the required Art Deco elements.
5. Strongly supported retaining true Avenue of Flags-facing commercial space, rather than relying on live/work-type units. “Active commercial frontage that draws people and businesses to the Avenue as one of the project's most important elements.” Commissioner Sarquilla
1. Liked the design, describing it as "nice and clean and simple."
2. Specifically complimented the color scheme.
Chair Reese
1. Asked staff about the proposal to convert part of the Avenue Heights Apartments' existing basketball court/open-space area to parking:
Whether Avenue Heights had received any park-fee credit for providing that space.
Whether its original entitlement contained requirements regarding the amount of open space that had to be maintained.
2. Observed possible Density Bonus Law issue: the new project might seek a state-law waiver, but the open-space requirement arises from a previous entitlement for a different project, rather than directly from the 560 Avenue of Flags proposed entitlement.
3. Questioned the applicant's proposed use of moderate-income units under Density Bonus Law, moderate-income units may need to be for-sale ownership units to qualify for the particular "stacking" provision being proposed.
4. Discussed the green color scheme and whether the project could visually relate to the adjacent Avenue Heights Apartments despite the differing architectural styles. Favored some visual connection between the two buildings.
140 of 164
560 Avenue of Flags Mixed-Use Project Page 4 August 24, 2026 Conceptual Review – City Council
Specifically preferred the deeper blue-green shown on the elevations/material board over the more grassy green shown in the renderings.
5. Called the design thoughtful.
6. Thought the site's slope was used effectively, allowing four stories without the building feeling as tall or massive as a conventional four-story building might.
7. Complimented the architect's massing, particularly the upper-floor/setback treatment and commercial frontage, saying they make the building feel less massive.
8. Liked the way the building jogs inward alongside the driveway/angled parking, describing the result as well executed.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council review the conceptual plans and provide comments to the Applicant on the project, for consideration in a formal application submittal.

A. Existing Conditions
The subject property is located on Avenue of Flags, between the Farmhouse Motel and Hotel Hygge, within the City of Buellton. The parcel is zoned General Commercial (CR), consistent with the zoning of the surrounding properties. Adjacent land uses include hotels and multi-family residential development, and other commercial uses.
The site is currently undeveloped and contains an existing paved access driveway and sidewalk connection serving the adjacent Avenue Heights Apartment complex to the east. The apartment complex also has primary access from 2nd Street. The paved access area also includes eight parking spaces. An electrical transformer is located in the northeastern corner of the property.
Topographically, the site slopes generally downward from the northwest corner on Avenue of Flags toward the eastern property boundary. The property is maintained through periodic mowing and consists primarily of ruderal vegetation. The site is surrounded by urban development on all sides and is served by existing public infrastructure.

III. PROPOSED PROJECT
The proposed mixed-use development consists of a single mixed-use building containing ground floor commercial space and upper story residential apartment units. A summary of the project characteristics is detailed in the project data table above.
The building is designed with a street-oriented frontage along Avenue of Flags and varies in height in response to the site’s natural topography. Along Avenue of Flags, the building presents a three-story elevation. As the site slopes toward the interior of the property, the structure transitions to four stories, while maintaining a consistent parapet and roofline appearance along the street frontage.
The commercial component includes approximately 2,800 square feet of street-facing commercial space designed to accommodate multiple tenants with direct pedestrian access from Avenue of Flags. No specific commercial tenants or uses are proposed at this time. The commercial space will be constructed as shell space, allowing future tenants to complete interior tenant improvement subject to applicable City review and approval.
The residential component consists of twenty-six (26) apartments distributed throughout the upper and interior portions of the building. Four residential units are located on the ground floor, which also includes a resident lobby and lounge area. The second floor contains six residential units, while the third and fourth floors each contain eight residential units. Residential units are accessed from a central interior corridor system served by stairwells located at each end of the building.
A. Architectural Design
The proposed building reflects a contemporary interpretation of Art Deco architecture while advancing the core objectives of the City's Form-Based Code. Rather than replicating a historic style, the design draws upon Art Deco principles of vertical expression, geometric composition, and architectural craftsmanship to create a distinctive building that contributes positively to the public realm and reinforces the character of the Avenue of the Flags corridor.
Consistent with the intent of the Form-Based Code, the building emphasizes a strong relationship between the structure and the street through active ground-floor commercial storefronts, prominent entrances, pedestrian-scaled architectural detailing, and a continuous street-facing façade. Decorative tile wainscots, storefront surrounds, metal awnings, and articulated building bays create visual interest at the pedestrian level and contribute to an engaging and walkable streetscape.
The building's massing is carefully organized to reduce perceived scale and create a well-proportioned street frontage. Stepped vertical façade elements, articulated wall planes, recessed balconies, and varied architectural projections divide the building into smaller visual components that enhance pedestrian comfort while maintaining a cohesive architectural composition. These features reflect the Form-Based Code's emphasis on façade articulation and building form as primary contributors to neighborhood character.
The architectural vocabulary borrows selectively from the Art Deco tradition through the use of stepped parapets, vertical façade elements, geometric detailing, decorative metal features, and tile accents. These elements establish a recognizable identity while remaining compatible with contemporary construction methods and the surrounding built environment. The result is an architecture that is visually distinctive without being stylistically prescriptive, supporting the Form-Based Code's goal of encouraging highquality design while allowing architectural creativity and diversity. 158 of 164

The proposed development therefore fulfills both the functional and placemaking objectives of the Form-Based Code by creating a pedestrian-oriented mixed-use building that reinforces the street edge, contributes to an attractive public realm, and establishes a memorable architectural presence within the community. At the same time, its contemporary interpretation of Art Deco design provides a sense of permanence, character, and visual richness appropriate for a prominent gateway corridor within Buellton.
B. Utilities and Infrastructure
The proposed project has been designed in accordance with the City of Buellton’s engineering standards and requirements for grading, drainage, utilities, and public infrastructure improvements. The project will connect to existing municipal water, wastewater, storm drainage, and utility systems and will provide all required on-site infrastructure improvements necessary to serve the proposed development.
Stormwater runoff generated by the project will be collected through a system of on-site catch basins, storm drain inlets, and underground pipes. Runoff will be conveyed to an underground stormwater management system located along the eastern portion of the property, consisting of stormwater storage and infiltration chambers designed to detain and infiltrate runoff in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements.
The project will comply with the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board’s PostConstruction Stormwater Management Requirements, including Post-Construction Requirements (PCRs) 1-4. Stormwater treatment measures incorporate landscape areas, bioretention facilities, and bioswales to improve water quality promote infiltration, and reduce runoff volumes. These features will also provide supplemental stormwater detention capacity. Primary stormwater storage and retention will be accommodated thorough underground chamber systems designed to manage storm events and support long-term site sustainability.
All utility and stormwater infrastructure improvements will be constructed in accordance with applicable City standards and will be maintained to ensure the continued functionality and performance of the project's drainage and utility systems.
C. Landscape Architectural Design
The proposed landscape architecture design utilizes a layered planting strategy to soften the visual impact of the four-story mixed-use development and establish a pedestrian-scaled environment along the Avenue of Flags. Integrated planting areas within recessed building bays frame storefront entrances, enhance architectural articulation, and contribute to an active and engaging streetscape. Additional landscape areas located along the north and south building frontages further reduce the perceived mass of the development and improve pedestrian comfort through the introduction of vegetation, textures, and visual relief. Perimeter planting surrounding residential parking areas provides effective vehicle screening and reduces the visual prominence of parking facilities.
Plant materials have been selected for compatibility with the project's Art Deco architectural character, regional climate conditions, and California water-efficiency standards. The palette consists of droughttolerant, urban-adapted species that provide a combination of form, texture, color, and seasonal interest while supporting long-term sustainability objectives.
Through these measures, the project enhances the public realm, improves the pedestrian experience, and supports applicable City goals and objectives for the Avenue of Flags as an attractive gateway corridor and community destination.

IV. REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
The subject property is within the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan (AOFSP) area and is subject to the applicable development standards and design requirements of the Specific Plan. A summary of the applicable development standards and the project’s consistency with those standards is provided below.
A. Permitted Uses & Entitlement Process
Mixed-Use development consisting of commercial and multi-family residential uses is a permitted land use within the General Commercial (CR) Zone and the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan (AOFSP).
Pursuant to AOFSP Table 3-9, mixed-use developments are subject to Development Plan (DP) Review by Planning Commission.
In addition to the underlying zoning regulation, the AOFSP establishes form-based code development standards and design guidelines that further refine requirements related to building massing, frontage design, pedestrian orientation, and site development within the Specific Plan area. The proposed project has been designed to comply with these applicable standards and guidelines.
At this time, there are no specific commercial tenants or commercial uses proposed for the ground floor commercial spaces. The commercial portions of the project will be constructed as shell space, with future tenant improvements subject to applicable City review and approval requirements. Any future commercial tenant shall comply will all applicable operational and development standards of the Buellton Municipal Code, the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan, and any other relevant regulations. Should a future tenant propose a use requiring a Conditional Use Permit or other discretionary approval, the appropriate entitlement(s) shall be obtained prior to occupancy and operation of the tenant area.
B. Residential Density Bonus
The proposed project utilizes the provisions of California Government Code Section 65915 (Density Bonus Law) to increase the allowable residential density on the site. The project contains approximately
0.78 acres and is located within the General Commercial (CR) zoning district, which permits a base residential density of 16 dwelling units per acre. Applying the allowable base density results in a maximum density of 13 dwelling units.
The project proposes four affordable dwelling units, consisting of two units restricted to Very LowIncome households and two units restricted for Moderate-Income households. These affordable units represent approximately 15 percent of the project’s base density in each affordability category.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65915, the provision of two Very Low-Income units qualifies the project for a 50 percent density bonus, resulting in seven (7) additional dwelling units. The provision of two Moderate-Income units qualifies the project for an additional 50 percent density bonus (pursuant to subsection (v)(1)) resulting in seven (7) additional dwelling units. Application of these density bonus provisions yields a maximum allowable density of 27 dwelling units.
The proposed project includes twenty-six (26) residential dwelling units and therefore complies with the maximum density permitted under State Density Bonus Law. The project exceeds affordable housing units required by Buellton’s Zoning Code section 19.16 by providing of 30 percent of base density units as affordable.

As discussed above, the proposed project is eligible for a density bonus pursuant to California Government Code Section 65915. In addition to density bonus provisions, State Density Bonus Law authorizes qualifying projects to receive incentives or concessions, waivers or reductions of development standards, and parking reductions when the project includes the required affordable housing units.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65915(d), the proposed affordable housing units qualify the project for up to three incentives or concessions. Incentives and concessions are intended to reduce development costs and may include modifications to development standards, zoning requirements, architectural design requirements, or other regulatory provisions that would otherwise result in identifiable and actual cost reductions necessary to facilitate the construction of affordable housing.
Government Code Section 65915(e) further provides for waivers or reductions of development standards when the applicant demonstrates that the application of a development standard would physically preclude the construction of a project at the density or with the incentives otherwise permitted under State Density Bonus Law. There is no statutory limit on the number of waivers that may be requested, provided the requested waiver does not result in a specific adverse impact on public health and safety, the physical environment, or historical resources, as defined by State law.
In addition, Government Code Section 65915(p) establishes maximum residential parking requirements for qualifying density bonus projects. The proposed project utilizes the parking standards provided under State Density Bonus Law for the residential component of the development. 1 Government Code regulations round up all fractional units to the nearest whole unit. 161 of 164

The following requests are included as part of the proposed project and are discussed in greater detail in the development standards analysis below:
1. Requested Incentive/Concession: Modification of the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan upperfloor street frontage setback requirements.
2. Requested Incentive/Concession: Elimination of the required commercial parking based upon the proposed grading and inability to provide an accessible path of travel from the parking area along the entry driveway to the commercial spaces fronting Avenue of Flags.
3. Requested Waiver: Modification of the maximum building height standards to allow the proposed building height necessary to accommodate the project and approved density bonus units.
4. State Density Bonus Parking Standards: Application of the residential parking ratios authorized by Government Code Section 65915(p) in lieu of the parking requirements otherwise applicable under the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan and Municipal Code.
V. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
The proposed project has been designed to comply with the applicable development standards, design guidelines, and from-based code requirements of the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan (AOFSP) for properties designated General Commercial (CR). Where deviations from the applicable standards are requested, such deviations are sought pursuant to California Government Code Section 65915 and are discussed below.
A. Residential Density
The base residential density permitted within the General Commercial (CR) designation is 16 density units per acre. Based upon the site area of 0.78 acres, the maximum base density is 13 density units.
The AOFSP includes provisions that allow increased residential densities ranging from 25 – 40 density units per acre through various incentive programs. However, pursuant to California Government Code Section 65915, the project’s allowable density is determined through the application of State Density Bonus Law. As described in Section IV.B., the project qualifies for density bonuses associated with the provision of Very Low-Income and Moderate-Income affordable housing units.
The proposed project includes twenty-six (26) residential dwelling units, resulting in a density of approximately 33.3 density units per acre. This density is consistent with the residential density range contemplated by the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan and is permitted through the application of State Density Bonus Law.
B. Building Height
The Avenue of Flags Specific Plan establishes a maximum building height of 35 feet within the General Commercial (CR) designation and includes incentive provisions allowing building heights up to 50 feet under certain circumstances.
The applicant requests a waiver pursuant to Government Code Section 65915(e) to allow a building height 47 feet. The requested waiver is necessary to accommodate the project density permitted under State Density Bonus Law and to ensure the physical feasibility of the mixed-use development. 162 of 164

The additional building height is necessary for the following reasons.
1. The additional height accommodates the fourth residential floor required to achieve the density bonus units permitted under Government Code Section 65915.
2. The additional height allows for a commercially viable ground-floor ceiling heights consistent with contemporary market expectations for retail, restaurant, office and service commercial spaces, thereby supporting the long-term viability of the commercial component of the project.
The requested building height of 47 feet remains below the 50-foot height threshold contemplated by the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan incentive provisions. Furthermore, the requested waiver will not result in a specific adverse impact on public health or safety, the physical environment, or historical resources.
Accordingly, the requested waiver is consistent with the finding required by Government Code Section 65915(e).
C. Setbacks
The Avenue of Flags Specific Plan form-based code establishes building setback requirements that vary based on building height and frontage conditions. The project design includes an upper-floor set back of approximately seven feet from the Avenue of Flags property line.
The applicant requests an incentive or concession pursuant to Government Code Section 65915(d) to modify the required upper-floor street frontage setback standard. The requested concession facilitates the efficient design of the residential floors, increases the functionality of the residential units, and reduces construction costs associated with additional building step-backs while maintaining the project's affordable housing commitments.
Although a reduced upper-floor setback is requested, the project incorporates architectural features that minimize perceived building mass and preserve pedestrian-scale character along Avenue of Flags. These features include upper-floor balconies, recessed building elements, changes in plane, varied façade treatments, and enhanced architectural detailing. The proposed seven-foot setback, combined with these design elements, provides visual relief and contributes to an attractive streetscape consistent with the design objectives of the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan.
The requested concession results in identifiable and actual cost reductions while maintaining compatibility with the surrounding development and preserving the pedestrian-oriented character envisioned by the Specific Plan.
D. Parking
The residential parking requirements for the project are established pursuant to California Government Code Section 65915(p). State Density Bonus Law limits the parking requirements that may be imposed on qualifying density bonus projects and supersedes local parking standards to the extent they conflict with State law.
The project utilizes State Density Bonus Law ratios for the residential component of the project. Parking for the commercial component of the project is provided in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan and the City of Buellton Municipal Code.
The project provides a total of forty-nine (49) on-site parking spaces to serve the residential component.
In addition, eight (8) existing parking spaces located within the access easement serving the adjacent Avenue Heights Apartments will remain available.

The proposed parking supply includes twelve (12) tandem parking space pairs, which are appropriate for the residential component of the development and contribute to the efficient utilization of the site.
Government Code §65915 expressly permits tandem parking spaces as an acceptable means of meeting parking requirements for affordable housing projects.
To accommodate the project's parking demand, twenty-one (21) parking spaces are proposed on the adjacent Avenue Heights Apartments parcel through the conversion of an existing lawn area and halfcourt basketball facility. The existing half-court basketball area is a private recreational amenity serving the adjacent apartment complex. The apartment complex will continue to provide open space and recreational opportunities consistent with applicable requirements. The project site and the Avenue Heights Apartments parcel are under common ownership. Prior to occupancy, the applicant will record or otherwise provide an agreement, easement, or other legal instrument acceptable to the City to ensure the continued availability and use of these parking spaces for the benefit of the development.
The proposed parking plan efficiently utilizes both parcels while supporting the mixed-use, pedestrianoriented development pattern envisioned by the Avenue of Flags Specific Plan. The combination of onsite parking, adjacent parking opportunities, tandem parking arrangements, and reduced residential parking ratios authorized under State Density Bonus Law provides adequate parking to serve the project.
