RE: Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc (LWC) 6th Cycle Housing Element Update Draft Revision Proposal Dear Mr. Perez,
Based on the City’s request for additional assistance in revising the current draft of the 6th Cycle Housing Element Update (HEU) in response to feedback from the Department of Housing & Community Development (HCD), LWC is pleased to provide this proposal.

Scope of Services
Feedback from HCD on December 9, 2022 requested revisions to the draft 6th Cycle HEU which focused on four areas of statutory compliance:

1. Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (Gov. Code, §65583, subd. (c)(5) and (c)(10)(A))

2. Sites Inventory Analysis (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (a)(3) and (c)(1))

3. Provisions for a Variety of Housing (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)(2))

4. Quantified Objectives (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (b)(1) and (2)) Adequately responding to HCD revision requests will at minimum require edits to the following sections of the September 2022 Revised Public Review Draft 6th Cycle HEU:

1. HEU Main Body, Section IV (Housing Plan)

2. Appendix B (Sites Inventory & Methodology)

3. Appendix C (Housing Constraints)

4. Appendix F (Affirmatively Forwarding Fair Housing)
Given the City’s indication that staff have capacity to address analyzing the suitability and capacity of M-S zone sites for emergency shelters and farmworker housing support (and are open to other tasks as appropriate), LWC is best suited to assist on revisions to Appendices B and F, with minor revision to the Main Body and Appendix C as-needed to ensure the HEU is internally consistent. The following table provides a summary of HCD’s feedback and LWC’s recommendations for City or LWC responsibility.

City of Coachella

Coachella, CA 92236
Dear Gabriel Perez:

RE: City of Coachella’s 6th Cycle (2021-2029) Revised Draft Housing Element Thank you for submitting the City of Coachella’s (City) draft housing element received for review on October 11, 2022. Pursuant to Government Code section 65585, subdivision (b), the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is reporting the results of its review.

The revised draft element addresses many statutory requirements described in HCD’s November 24, 2021 review; however, revisions will be necessary to comply with State Housing Element Law (Article 10.6 of the Gov. Code), as follows:

1. Affirmatively further[ing] fair housing in accordance with Chapter 15 (commencing with Section 8899.50) of Division 1 of Title 2…shall include an assessment of fair housing in the jurisdiction (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)(10)(A))
Promote and affirmatively further fair housing opportunities and promote housing throughout the community or communities for all persons regardless of race, religion, sex, marital status, ancestry, national origin, color, familial status, or disability, and other characteristics... (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)(5).) Outreach and Enforcement: While the housing element includes a summary of fair housing enforcement and outreach capacity, it must also quantify and evaluate complaints at the City level. In addition, the element should discuss how the City complies with existing fair housing laws and regulations, any past fair housing lawsuits, consent decrees or other related legal matters.

Racial/Ethnic Areas of Concentration of Poverty (R/ECAP): The element identifies R/ECAPs but should also analyze the R/ECAPs, such as evaluating trends, conditions of the neighborhood relative to quality of life (e.g., housing conditions, infrastructure, parks, community amenities, safe routes to school, environmental health), comparisons to other neighborhoods, coincidence with

Page 167 ends

Item 11.

Gabriel Perez, Assistant Director

Page 2 ends

other fair housing assessment factors (e.g., displacement, overpayment, disparities in access to opportunity) and effectiveness or absence of past strategies related to equitable quality of life. The element must add or modify programs based on the outcomes of this analysis.

Disparities in Access to Opportunity: The element should describe availability and access to transportation mobility geographically within the City and impacts on the various components of the assessment of fair housing (e.g., race, disability, income, overpayment).

Disproportionate Housing Needs: The element includes some general information on persons experiencing homelessness and housing conditions but should also evaluate those needs, impacts and patterns within the City, such as areas of higher need. For homelessness, the element should examine disproportionate impacts on protected characteristics (e.g., race, disability) and patterns of need or areas with higher concentrations of persons experiencing homelessness, including access to transportation and services. For housing conditions, the element should discuss any areas of potentially higher needs of rehabilitation and replacement. The element may utilize local data and knowledge such as service providers and code enforcement officials to assist this analysis.

Local Data and Knowledge: The element must include local data, knowledge, and other relevant factors to discuss and analyze any unique attributes about the City related to fair housing issues. The element should complement federal, state, and regional data with local data and knowledge where appropriate to capture emerging trends and issues, including utilizing knowledge from local and regional advocates and service providers, City staff and related local and County planning documents.

Other Relevant Factors: The element must include other relevant factors that contribute to fair housing issues in the City. For instance, the element can analyze historical land use, zoning and barriers to housing choices, investment practices, seeking investment or lack of seeking investment to promote affordability and inclusion, information about redlining/greenlining, restrictive covenants and other discriminatory practices, land use related lawsuits, local initiatives, demographic trends, or other information that complements the state and federal data.

Identified Sites and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH): The element must include data on the location of regional housing needs allocation (RHNA) sites by income group relative to all fair housing components. The analysis should address the number of units by income group and location, any isolation of the RHNA by income group, magnitude of the impact on existing concentrations of socio- economic characteristics and discuss how the sites improve fair housing conditions. The analysis should be supported by local data

Page 168 ends

Item 11.

Gabriel Perez, Assistant Director

Page 3 ends

and knowledge and other relevant factors and programs should be added or modified as appropriate to promote inclusive and equitable communities.

Contributing Factors to Fair Housing Issues: Based on the outcomes of a complete analysis, the element should re-assess contributing factors and particularly prioritize those factors then formulate appropriate policies and programs.

Programs: As noted above, the element must include a complete assessment of fair housing. Based on the outcomes of that analysis, the element must add or modify programs. Goals and actions must specifically respond to the analysis and to the identified and prioritized contributing factors to fair housing issues and must be significant and meaningful enough to overcome identified patterns and trends. Actions must have specific commitment, metrics, milestones, and geographic targeting, and must address place-based strategies for community revitalization and displacement protection.

2. An inventory of land suitable and available for residential development, including vacant sites and sites having realistic and demonstrated potential for redevelopment during the planning period to meet the locality’s housing need for a designated income level, and an analysis of the relationship of zoning and public facilities and services to these sites. (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (a)(3).) Identify actions that will be taken to make sites available during the planning period with appropriate zoning and development standards and with services and facilities to accommodate that portion of the city’s or county’s share of the regional housing need for each income level that could not be accommodated on sites identified in the inventory completed pursuant to paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) without rezoning, and to comply with the... (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)(1).)
Realistic Capacity: As noted in the prior review, the calculation of residential capacity must account for the likelihood of 100 percent nonresidential uses. In response, the element notes the feasibility of affordable residential development in mixed use zones and includes a program to allow require residential uses on sites zoned for the lower-income RHNA. However, the element must still account for the likelihood of 100 percent nonresidential development on all sites, including the moderate and above-moderate income RHNA The element should clearly describe whether 100 percent residential uses are allowed in nonresidential zones, discuss how often 100 percent nonresidential uses occur, adjust residential capacity assumptions and add or modify programs as appropriate.

The element may include a program that requires minimum densities or establishes residential performance standards on nonresidentially zoned sites to address this requirement.

Item 11.

Gabriel Perez, Assistant Director

Page 4 ends

Infrastructure: The element generally was not revised to address this finding. The element must still clarify whether sufficient total water and sewer capacity is available (existing and planned) to accommodate the RHNA and add or modify programs if necessary.

Zoning for a Variety of Housing Types (Emergency Shelters): The revised element states that emergency shelters are allowed in the M-S Manufacturing Service Zone by-right without discretionary review. However, the element must also analyze the suitability and capacity of the M-S zone to meet the need for emergency shelters. For example, the element should identify the number of parcels, typical parcel sizes, available acreage, whether sites are underutilized, and any potential for reusing existing buildings to emergency shelters. The element should also discuss proximity to transit and services and any known hazardous conditions unfit for human habitation.

The revised element states that the development standards for emergency shelters comply with Government Code Section 65583(a)(4). The element states that emergency shelters are required to be a minimum of 300 ft. apart from each other; however, state law only allows a maximum of 300 ft separation requirement. The element must further clarify compliance with Government Code section 65583, subdivision (a)(4). In addition, the element should discuss if the City complies with AB 139 (Statutes of 2019) related to parking requirements and quantification of the emergency shelter need. The element should describe compliance with these requirements or revise Program 1.9 Emergency Shelters to implement actions to comply with Government Code section 65583, subdivision (a)(4) and AB 139 (Statutes of 2019).

Sites Inventory Electronic Form: For your information, please note, pursuant to Government Code section 65583.3, subdivision (b), the City must utilize standards, forms, and definitions adopted by HCD when preparing the sites inventory. The City must submit an electronic version of the sites inventory with its adopted housing element to [email protected]. For more information and technical assistance, please see HCD’s housing element webpage at https://www.hcd.ca.gov/planning-and-community-development/housing-elements or email the sites inventory team at [email protected].

Programs: As noted above, the element does not include a complete site analysis, therefore, the adequacy of sites and zoning were not established.

Based on the results of a complete sites inventory and analysis, the City may need to add or revise programs to address a shortfall of sites or zoning available to encourage a variety of housing types. In addition, the element must still be revised as follows:
• Shortfall of Sites: The element now includes Programs 1.1 (General Plan Implementation), 1.2 (Lower Income Site Rezoning), 1.3 (General Plan Text Amendment) and 1.13 (General Plan Amendments) to address a

Page 170 ends

Item 11.

Gabriel Perez, Assistant Director

Page 5 ends

shortfall of sites to accommodate the RHNA, including committing to meet all by-right requirements pursuant to Government Code section 65583.2, subdivisions (h) and (i). However, the programs must still commit to acreage, allowable densities, appropriate development standards and anticipated units.
• Program 5.8 (Group Homes): This Program (formerly Program 1.10)) commits to administrate approval for group homes (seven or more persons) in high density and mixed-use zones. However, the program should also commit to all lesser density residential zones (e.g., single family).

3. The housing element shall contain programs which assist in the development of adequate housing to meet the needs of extremely low-, very low-, low- and moderate-income households. (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (c)(2).) Program 1.10 (Farmworker Housing Support): As noted in the prior review, the element must include specific actions to assist in the development of housing for farmworkers. In response, the element now commits to prepare a brochure, meet with stakeholder once in the planning period and amend zoning as needed. In addition, the element should include specific commitment with discrete timing to at least annually and proactively reach out to developers of farmworker housing and identify and pursue development opportunities. This action should be coupled with commitment to assist with funding, support funding applications and provide incentives. The program should also commit to meet with farmworker advocacy and any other related groups at least every other year and make adjustments and pursue additional strategies within a specified time.

4. Establish the number of housing units, by income level, that can be constructed, rehabilitated, and conserved over a five-year time frame. (Gov. Code, § 65583, subd. (b)(1 & 2).)
The element now includes quantified objectives by income group for new construction and rehabilitation but provides no quantified objectives for conservation. For your information, conservation objectives are not limited to atrisk preservation and may include a variety of activities that promote stability in housing. Examples of programs that may be used for conservation objectives include Programs 2.3 (Neighborhood Enhancement), 2.4 (Mobile Home Park Maintenance), 2.7 (Tenant Outreach), 3.4 (Energy Efficiency) and 7.1 (Housing Choice Vouchers)
The element will meet the statutory requirements of State Housing Element Law once it has been revised and adopted to comply with the above requirements.

Public participation in the development, adoption and implementation of the housing element is essential to effective housing planning. Throughout the housing element process, the City should continue to engage the community, including organizations that

Page 171 ends

Item 11.

Gabriel Perez, Assistant Director

Page 6 ends

represent lower-income and special needs households, by making information regularly available and considering and incorporating comments where appropriate. Please be aware, any revisions to the element must be posted on the local government’s website and to email a link to all individuals and organizations that have previously requested notices relating to the local government’s housing element at least seven days before submitting to HCD.

Pursuant to Assembly Bill 1398 (Chapter 358, Statutes of 2021), a jurisdiction that failed to adopt a compliant housing element within one year from the statutory deadline cannot be found in compliance until rezones to make prior identified sites available and accommodate a shortfall of sites pursuant to Government Code section 65583, subdivision (c)(1)(A) and Government Code section 65583.2, subdivision (c) are completed. As this year has passed and Programs 1.1 (General Plan Implementation),

1.2 (Lower Income Site Rezoning), 1.3 (General Plan Text Amendment) and 1.13 (General Plan Amendments) have not been completed, the housing element will remain out of compliance until the rezonings have been completed.

Several federal, state, and regional funding programs consider housing element compliance as an eligibility or ranking criteria. For example, the CalTrans Senate Bill (SB) 1 Sustainable Communities grant; the Strategic Growth Council and HCD’s Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities programs; and HCD’s Permanent Local Housing Allocation consider housing element compliance and/or annual reporting requirements pursuant to Government Code section 65400. With a compliant housing element, the City will meet housing element requirements for these and other funding sources.

For your information, some general plan element updates are triggered by housing element adoption. HCD reminds the City to consider timing provisions and welcomes the opportunity to provide assistance. For information, please see the Technical Advisories issued by the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research at:
https://www.opr.ca.gov/planning/general-plan/guidelines.html.

HCD is committed to assisting the City in addressing all statutory requirements of State Housing Element Law. If you have any questions or need additional technical assistance, please contact Molivann Phlong, of our staff, at [email protected].

Sincerely,
Paul McDougall
Senior Program Manager

STAFF REPORT
3/8/2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Gabriel Perez, Development Services Director
SUBJECT: Consideration to Fill Five Planning Commission Vacancies STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Council solicit applications to fill five vacancies on the Planning Commission.

BACKGROUND:

The Coachella Planning Commission is made up of five members and one alternative member, who are appointed to 4-year terms that are staggered. Accordingly, every two years, three commissioners must be newly appointed. The Coachella Municipal Code 2.26.020 (B), states that each council member may nominate an individual to serve on each city commission and committee subject to appointment by the mayor, with approval by the city council, at open session of a regular or special city council meeting. If a council member fails to nominate an individual, the mayor may appoint someone with approval by the city council. The Coachella Municipal Code 2.26.020 (D), states that in an event of an interim vacancy, the council member who nominated the vacating member may nominate another individual, subject to appointment by the mayor with approval by the city council, for the unexpired term of the member replaced. There is no individual council member nomination for the Alternate Planning Commissioner.

The terms for Planning Commissioner Miguel Navarrete (Nominated by Mayor Pro Tem Gonzalez), Miguel Leal and Ventura Gutierrez expired November 2022 and they are currently serving as Commissioners until the City Council nominates and approves candidates to serve for the next Planning Commissioner 4-year term. Two other vacancies have occurred due to the recent election of Councilmembers Virgen and Figueroa to the City Council who previously serves as Planning Commissioners. The terms of those vacancies will need to be filled until November 2024.

FROM: Dr. Gabriel Martin, City Manager,
Best Best & Krieger LLP, City Attorney
SUBJECT: City Council’s Direction on Public’s Continued Participation During Meetings Via Zoom for Purposes of Public Comment and Presentations in light of End to COVID-19 State of Emergency

SUMMARY
With Governor Gavin Newsom ending California’s COVID-19 State of Emergency last month, the City Council must provide direction on what options the public will continue to have, if any, to participate in City Council meetings via Zoom for the purposes of public comment and conducting presentations.

This agenda item provides the City Council with an opportunity to discuss the options it will continue to make available to the public and provide direction to both City Staff and the City Attorney on what the new policy will be moving forward.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council discuss and determine what options it will continue to make available to the public for participation in City Council meetings via Zoom and provide direction to both City Staff and the City Attorney.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In March 2020, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order No. N-29-20, which suspended portions of the Brown Act that traditionally limited the use of teleconferencing for public meetings. In light of this Executive Order, the vast majority of cities and public agencies around the State provided the public with opportunities to participate in public meetings via Zoom to address the local legislative body or public agency. Despite this ability to participate in meetings virtually however, the Executive Order was clear that the relaxing of these Brown Act requirements were to “sunset” or end when either the pandemic or State of Emergency ended.

On October 17, 2022, Governor Newsom announced that the State’s COVID-19 State of Emergency would officially end on February 28, 2023. Consequently, the City Council must now determine whether the public may continue to participate during meetings via

Should the Council require more information on the topic to help make its determination, attached to this Staff Report is a Memorandum by the City Attorney regarding the options for conducting virtual or “hybrid” meetings following the expiration of legislation relaxing the Brown Act teleconferencing rules.

ATTORNEY WORK PRODUCT
Memorandum
To: City Council
From: City Attorney
Date: March 6, 2023
Re: Options for Conducting Virtual or “Hybrid” Meetings Following the Expiration of AB 361
Question Presented:

Can members of local legislative bodies continue to hold virtual or “hybrid” (i.e. partial teleconference, partial in-person) Board meetings in light of Assembly Bill (AB) 361’s expiration? What options are available to the Board if they wish to continue holding virtual and/or “hybrid” public meetings?
Conclusion:

In light of the Governor ending the State’s COVID-19 State of Emergency on February 28, 2023 and AB 361’s expiration on January 1, 2024, the legislature passed AB 2449, which provides for relaxed teleconferencing rules when a member of the local legislative body must attend a meeting remotely due to an emergency or other reasons supported by “just cause.”1 Until AB 361 expires in 2024, members of local legislative bodies wishing to appear remotely can continue to do if they find remote meetings necessary pursuant to AB 361 during a declared state of emergency, adhere to the new rules set forth in AB 2449, or revert back to the Brown Act’s original teleconferencing rules.

Discussion:

I. Passage AB 361 and Its Approaching Expiration
In response to challenges faced by public agencies during the COVID-19 pandemic and in an effort to extend the relaxed requirements related to virtual public meetings as set forth by Governor Gavin Newsome in Executive Order N-29-20, the California legislature passed AB 361 in September 2021. AB 361 streamlined the requirements for teleconference/virtual meetings under the Brown Act during times of declared emergency. Prior to the passage AB 361, the Brown Act required the posting of each teleconference location and making each location open to the public, which proved extremely difficult at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. 1 As defined by California Government Code Section 54953(i)(2)

Page 209 ends

Item 14.

With both local legislative bodies and the general public adapting and becoming more comfortable with attending public meetings virtually, many local legislative bodies lobbied to get legislation passed that would extend AB 361’s requirements past its expiration. In response, the California legislature passed AB 2449, which aimed to accomplish this goal. It is important to note that although AB 361 is still effective until January 1, 2024, its requirements can only be invoked during a state of emergency as declared by the Governor. The Governor has announced that the COVID-19 state of emergency will end on February 28, 2023. Consequentially, local legislative bodies may continue to make or renew remote meeting findings under AB 361 until January 2024, but only during a declared state of emergency.

II. Current AB 361 Rules that are Re-Codified in AB 2449 As mentioned in the section above, the objective of AB 361 was to streamline the requirements for teleconference/virtual meetings under the Brown Act during times of declared emergency. The secondary purpose of AB 2449 was to recodify the relaxed teleconferencing requirements set forth by AB 361 and extend AB 361’s effective date until 2026. Pursuant to AB 361, when a state of emergency is declared, a local legislative body may hold teleconference meetings without meeting certain procedural requirements (post agendas at teleconference locations, identify teleconference locations in the agenda, make all teleconference locations open to the public) in the following circumstances:
 The meeting is held during a proclaimed state of emergency and state/local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing (e.g. Cal-OSHA or other regulatory guidance requiring employees to be trained in social distancing to reduce exposure);
 The meeting is held during a proclaimed state of emergency for the purpose of determining whether meeting in person during the emergency would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees; and/or
 The meeting is held during a proclaimed state of emergency and the body has already determined that meeting in person during the emergency would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.

If the body is relying on the above findings to justify meeting by teleconference, it must be sure to:
 Give the public notice of how to access the meeting and offer public comment;  Ensure that if a disruption to the online meeting occurs, the body takes no further action on agendized items until public access is restored;
 Avoid requiring public comments to be submitted in advance, and provide a real-time option for the public to address the body at the meeting; and - 2 -

Page 210 ends

Item 14.
 If the state of emergency remains active or social distancing measures continue to be imposed/recommended by state or local officials, continue to make findings supporting the teleconference meetings at least every 30 days.

III. Passage of AB 2449 and Its Relaxing of Teleconferencing Rules Effective January 1, 2023, AB 2449 reiterates the standard Brown Act teleconference rules, recodifies the rules set forth in AB 361 during states of emergency, and provides relaxed teleconferencing rules when a member of a local legislative body must attend a meeting remotely due to an emergency or other reasons supported by “just cause.” Pursuant to the new teleconference rules set forth in AB 2449, a local legislative body may hold a “hybrid” (i.e. partial teleconference, partial in-person) meeting without having to comply with certain procedural requirements previously required by the Brown Act (i.e. post agendas at teleconference locations, identify teleconference locations in the agenda, make all teleconference locations open to the public) in the following limited circumstances:
 In instances where one or more members of the local legislative body (but less than a quorum) have “just cause” for not attending the meeting in person (e.g. childcare or family caregiving need, contagious illness, physical or mental disability need, or travel while on official public business); or
 In instances where one or more members of the local legislative body (but less than a quorum) experience an “emergency circumstance”2(e.g. a physical or family medical emergency that prevents in-person attendance).

Before a member of a local legislative body can appear remotely pursuant to the circumstances listed above however, the member must meet one of the following requirements: 1.) the member seeking to appear remotely must notify the local legislative body at the earliest opportunity possible, including at the start of a regular meeting, of their need to participate remotely for "just cause" (as defined by AB 2449). This includes providing the local legislative body with a general description of the circumstances relating to their need to appear remotely at the given meeting; or 2.) the member requests that the local legislative body allow them to participate in the meeting remotely due to "emergency circumstances" and the local legislative body takes action to approve the request. The local legislative body must request a general description (generally not exceeding 20 words) of the circumstances relating to their need to appear remotely at the given meeting.

Additionally, it is important to note that AB 2449’s teleconference procedures may not be used by a member of the local legislative body for a period of more than three consecutive months or 20% of the regular meetings within a calendar year. In instances where the local legislative body meets less than ten (10) times per calendar year, a member of the local legislative body may not use AB 2449’s teleconference procedures for more than two meetings. Furthermore, although AB 2 As defined by California Government Code Section 54953(i)(1) - 3 -

Page 211 ends

Item 14.

STAFF REPORT
3/8/2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Gabriel Perez, Development Services Director
SUBJECT: Taco Shop 760 – Alcohol Sales and Entertainment Establishment Permit SPECIFICS: Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 360 (Modification) to change the hours of operations related to the on-sale, service and consumption of beer, wine, and distilled spirits (Type 47) and Entertainment Permit No. 23-01 to permit limited entertainment within a 2,756 square-foot restaurant located at 48975 Grapefruit Blvd, Suite #3. Applicant: Alejandra Barcelo
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2023-12 (CUP No. 360 Modification) and Resolution No. PC 2023-13 (Entertainment Permit No. 23-01) for the following:
 Modify Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 360 related to liquor sales license (Type 47, OnSale Beer, wine and distilled spirits– Eating Place) operating until 12 a.m. Monday through Wednesday and until 1:30 a.m. Thursday to Saturday at the Taco Shop 760 eating establishment.
 Approve an entertainment establishment permit to allow for recorded music, karaoke on Thursday, and live performances by a musical group of 3-4 persons Fridays through Saturday located at 48975 Grapefruit Blvd, Suite #3.

BACKGROUND:

Taco Shop 760 is currently operating as a restaurant within an existing commercial tenant space (Suite #3) located in the Plaza Mi Pueblo commercial center located on .58 acres at 48975 Grapefruit Blvd (APN 603-250-012). Plaza Mi Pueblo includes four retail suites, which includes Ana Perez Realtor, Kingz Barbershop, and Ink Devotion Tattoo and Body Piercing. Suite #3 was previously occupied by El Pecado Crafted Mexican Food.

On January 4, 2023, the Planning Commission approved CUP 360 for Taco Shop 760 to operate with a Type 47 On-Sale license for the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits, but limited hours of operation between 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. The applicant originally stated in their CUP application that they proposed new hours with closing at 12 a.m. Monday through Wednesday and until 1:30 a.m.

Thursday to Saturday. Staff inadvertently excluded discussion on the new proposed hours in the staff report for Planning Commission consideration. The applicant also proposed karaoke and live

Item 15.
music and is required to obtain an entertainment establishment permit for consideration at a public hearing of the City Council.

The Planning Commission recommended approval of the modification to CUP 360 and approval of Entertainment Permit No. 23-01 at a public hearing on February 15, 2023 and modified conditions of approval for the entertainment permit to require as follows:
 Management shall ensure that no littering, loitering, or consumption of alcohol occurs in and around the property. (condition of approval #14)
 A minimum of one licensed security officer will be required for Friday and Saturday after 10 p.m. when any entertainment events occur (musicians, karaoke, or similar related entertainment activities). – (condition of approval #22) DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The applicant, Alejandra Barcelo, submitted a request for a CUP to allow the on-sale of liquor (beer, wine and spirits) at the Taco Shop 760 restaurant. The zoning designation of the commercial center is within the C-G (General Commercial) and allows liquor sales with approval of a CUP.

In December of 2016, the City adopted an ordinance requiring a conditional use permit for any off-sale and on-sale alcohol sales establishment, with additional land use regulations contained in Section 17.74.015 of the Zoning Code. The Conditional Use Permit findings are required to be made by the Planning Commission.

The subject site is located within Census Tract 9404 with a population of 6,242 person, where ABC concentration standards allow a maximum of 5 on-sale licenses, where 16 active licenses exist. When it is determined by ABC that there is an undue concentration of on-sale licenses, the Planning Commission must make findings that the public convenience or necessity justifies the issuance of the liquor license to the establishment.

*Surrendered licenses are counted by ABC towards the concentration of ABC licenses.

Additionally, on-sale establishments may not fall within 700 feet of a church, school, park, playground, residence or another exiting on-sale use as measured from property line to property line. The subject site is within 700 feet of the Islamic Society of Palm Springs and about 200 feet to the nearest residence on Las Cruces Street. The subject site is also within 700 feet of another on-sale establishment (Eastern Buffet – 570 foot distance). Staff contacted the Lieutenant Vasquez with the Riverside County Sheriff regarding any concerns for the proposed business operating with an entertainment permit that the City Council may want to consider when making CUP and Entertainment Permit findings or adding conditions of approval.

Lieutenant Vasquez did not identify any concerns with the business and does not recommend any conditions of approval. No comments have been received from the public with any concerns about approval of the proposed CUP or Entertainment Permit.

The applicant proposes restaurant operating hours until 12 a.m., Monday through Wednesday and until 1:30 a.m., Thursday to Saturday. Additionally, the applicant proposes recorded music, karaoke on Thursday nights, and live performances by musicians of 3-4 persons Fridays through Saturdays. No use of the restaurant for dancing is proposed. Staff circulated the request to the Riverside County Sherriff’s Department for comment and there are no concerns about the added hours of operation and the proposed entertainment uses. Staff has conditioned the project to ensure that amplified music and the live musician performances occur inside the restaurant suite at all times to ensure compliance with the City’s noise ordinance.

Site Plan / Parking and Circulation:

The commercial site is fully developed and includes all required on-site parking.

Item 15.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

Staff has determined that the proposed project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act as “Existing Facilities” (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301). The proposed project consists of the operation, licensing and minor alteration of an existing private commercial structure involving no expansion of existing or former commercial use on the property. The subject site has been used for commercial retail establishments and no expansions of floor area are proposed.

ALTERNATIVES:
1) Adopt Resolution No. 2023-12 and Resolution No. 2023-13 approving a modification to CUP 360 and approving Entertainment Establishment Permit No. 23-01 with the findings and conditions as recommended by Staff.
3) Not approve Resolutions No. 2023-12 and 2023-13. Request that staff prepare Council Resolutions denying the proposed permits and modifications. Under this alternative, CUP No. 360 for on-sale alcohol (beer, wine and distilled spirits) would remain active but under existing limited hours of operation and no permitted entertainment. 3) Continue this item and provide staff and the applicant with direction.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the analysis contained herein and the findings listed below, staff is recommending that the City Council approve alternative #1, modifying Conditional Use Permit No. 360 and approving Entertainment Permit No. 23-01 with the findings and conditions listed in Resolution No. 2023- 12 and Resolution No. 2023-13.

WHEREAS, the proposed project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act, as amended; and,
WHEREAS, the conditions as stipulated by the City are necessary to protect the public health, safety and welfare of the community.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Coachella, California does hereby approve Conditional Use Permit No. 360 (modification), subject to the findings and conditions of approval listed below.

Section 1. Incorporation of Recitals
The City Council hereby finds that all of the facts in the Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated and adopted as findings of the City Council as fully set forth in this resolution.

Section 2. CEQA Findings
Based upon its review of the entire record, including the Staff Report, any public comments or testimony presented to the City Council, and the facts outlined below, the City Council hereby finds and determines that the proposed project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act as an “Existing Facilities” project (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301a) as the proposed on sale service of liquor will occur in conjunction with an existing business in an existing commercial building
Section 4. Conditional Use Permit Findings
With respect to Conditional Use Permit No. 360 (modification), the City Council finds as follows for the proposed on-sale alcohol request:

1. The proposed use will not be in conflict with, but will be in harmony with and in accordance with the objectives of the general plan because the proposed restaurant use with alcohol sales is within the Suburban Retail District land use designation according to the General Plan 2035, which allows the intended physical character to provide convenient access and parking for motorists while also providing an attractive shopping environment. The on sale offerings of beer, wine and distilled spirits at Taco Shop 760 will provide a unique service to the Suburban Retail District and citywide that accomplished the goals of the General Plan.

2. The proposed use will be located, designed, constructed, operated and maintained so

Page 218 ends

Item 15.

Resolution No. 2023-12

Page 3 ends

as to be compatible with the existing character of the general vicinity and shall not change the essential character of the same area because the proposed use is within a zoning designation of ‘C-G' (General Commercial) which permits restaurants with alcohol service subject to obtaining a conditional use permit to sell alcoholic beverages. The proposed use is located on Grapefruit Boulevard and is compatible with the adjoining commercial uses and the conditional use permit can be revoked if any of the conditions of approval are violated.

3. Consideration has been given to harmony in scale, bulk, coverage and density, to the availability of public facilities and utilities, to harmful effect, if any, upon desirable neighborhood character, to the generation of traffic and the capacity of surrounding streets, and to any other relevant impact of development, because the existing commercial tenant space is within an existing commercial building with all infrastructure available on-site for the existing restaurant and an existing commercial parking lot.

4. Where the proposed use may be potentially hazardous or disturbing to existing or reasonably expected neighboring uses, it must be justified by the common public interest as a benefit to the community as a whole. As conditioned, the proposed use will provide for the sale of alcoholic beverages. The Riverside County Sheriff indicated that there are no concerns about the operations of this establishment, including service of on-sale beer. The Sherriff’s Department does not recommend conditions related to public safety concerns. As such, there are no anticipated hazardous or disturbing effects to the existing and neighboring uses.

5. The proposed use provides vehicular approaches to the property designed for reasonable minimal interference with traffic on surrounding public streets or roads as the commercial center that the subject business is located in is already existing and traffic and vehicular approaches were already considered and approved by the City Engineer and the Planning Commission. The City of Coachella has determined that the proposed project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act as an “Existing Facilities” project (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301a) as the proposed on sale service of liquor will occur in conjunction with an existing business in an existing commercial building.

6. Although the Taco Shop 760 restaurants does fall within seven hundred (700) feet, measured from property line to property line, of a use for religious worship (Islamic Society of Palm Springs), and residential use, the benefit of the restaurant outweighs the distance restrictions and the public convenience or necessity is justified to issue the on-sale beer, wine and distilled spirits license as the restaurants will offer a wide selection of food in a commercial center on a major corridor envisioned to have such uses. The Islamic Society of Palm Springs is 273 feet to the west and separated by three parcels. The nearest residence is approximately 150 feet to the Southwest and is separated by Avenue 49.

7. Although the Taco Shop 760 establishment does fall within seven hundred (700) feet,

Page 219 ends

Item 15.

Resolution No. 2023-12

Page 4 ends

measured from property line to property line, of an existing liquor, off-sale use (Eastern Buffet) the benefit of the supermarket outweighs the distance restrictions and the public convenience or necessity is justified to issue the on-sale beer and wine license as the restaurant will offer a wide selection of food products and increase the availability of restaurant establishments to Coachella residents and within walking distance to the immediate neighborhood. A condition of approval for CUP 360 requires that not greater than 20 percent of the gross floor area or 1,500 sq. ft. whichever is less id dedicated to a bar or storage, sales, and display of liquor/alcoholic beverages and said area is separated by physical barriers from the main seating area for serving meals.

8. The restaurant establishment at the location will not adversely affect the economic welfare of the nearby community, but rather would expand the availability of jobs and would serve as an anchor for the commercial center, which would also provide jobs and increase the City's sales tax revenues.

9. The exterior appearance of the structure of the proposed establishment will not be inconsistent with the exterior appearance of commercial structures already constructed or under construction within the immediate neighborhood so as to cause blight or deterioration, or substantially diminish or impair the property values within the neighborhood. The business is located in an existing commercial center that was approved under Architectural Review and included high quality Spanish Architectural design.

Section 5. City Council Approval
Based on the foregoing recitals and findings above, and the written and oral comments, facts and evidence presented, the City of Coachella City Council hereby approves Conditional Use Permit No. 360 (modification) subject to and amended by conditions of approval in “Exhibit A.”

STAFF REPORT
3/8/2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Gabriel Perez, Development Services Director
SUBJECT: Tripoli Mixed-Use Project (Proposed Revisions) SPECIFICS: Second proposed amendment to Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 351 and Architectural Review (AR) 22-04 for the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Overlay Zone guidelines, design revisions and modifications to conditions of approval for a mixed-use development consisting of 108 apartment units and four retail units on 2.8 acres of vacant C-G (General Commercial) zoned property at the northeast corner of Cesar Chavez Street and Bagdad Avenue (APN# 778-081- 003 and -001) Applicant: Chelsea Investment Corporation EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Chelsea Investment Corporation requests City Council approval of revisions to the conditions of approval for the Tripoli Mixed-Use project, a mixed-use development consisting of 108 affordable apartments units, with 1-3 bedroom options, and four retail spaces on 2.8 acres at the northeast corner of Cesar Chavez Street and Bagdad Avenue as follows:
 Amend Condition of Approval # 9 to read as follows:
“The applicant shall accommodate an elevator for
Building A and B.”
 Add new Condition of Approval # 81: “Developer shall
construct a park on the 9th Street I.I.D. parcel, subject to the design as approved by the City Parks Director, up to a maximum cost of $350,000, inclusive of landscape
architecture, and agency fees.”
BACKGROUND:

At a public hearing on May 11, 2022, the City Council
approved Change of Zone (CZ) 22-01, Conditional Use
Permit (CUP) 351, Architectural Review (AR) 22-04 to amend the Official Zoning Map by adding the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Overlay Zone on 2.8 acres of vacant C-G (General Commercial) zoned property for a mixed-use development consisting of 108 apartment units and 2 retail units. At a public hearing on November 9, 2022, the City Council approved the

Page 234 ends

Item 16.
amendments, which included architectural and site plan modifications and building/unit size reduction.

The applicant requests the City Council remove a requirement for an elevator in Building A to reduce project costs to finance the project. The applicant states that they believe Coachella residents would benefit more from improvements for the planned park at 9th Street and Shady Lane than elevators in Building A. The applicant received California Infill Infrastructure Grant funding to pursue infrastructure improvements in the Pueblo Viejo district, which includes park construction at the 9th Street and Shady Lane property acquired from the Imperial Irrigation District. The applicant indicated that removal of the elevator in Building A is the best option to reduce costs as only 36 apartment units would be serviced by a Building A elevator for building floors 2 and 3. The applicant also conveyed the project was awarded 4% tax credits and bonds on November 30, 2022 and has a financial closing deadline of May 29, 2023. The applicant expressed the need to finalize the project’s budget and conditions of approval by the end of February 2023.

The Planning Commission at a public hearing on February 15, 2023 considered the applicant’s request and recommended approval of the modifications to conditions of approval that include:
 (Condition 9) Removal of the elevator in Building A. As requested by applicant  (Condition 81) Establishing a minimum construction cost of $350,000 and half the elevator cost with any savings achieved by the developer on project costs to be used to increase expenditures in park improvements. The applicant requested a maximum construction cost of $350,000 inclusive of landscape architecture and agency fees Table 1: Original Approved Project vs. Amended Project

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The surrounding land uses and zoning designations are as follows:

North: Existing commercial development and Pueblo Viejo Villas, (C-G, General Commercial and C-G PD).

South: Rancho Grande Markets (C-G, General Commercial).

East: Residential neighborhood and vacant land (C-G, General Commercial and R-S, Residential Single Family).

West: O’Reilly Auto Parts and Cesar Chavez Street (C-G, General Commercial).

Site Plan
The proposed buildings would be constructed near property line with building frontages on 6th Street, Tripoli Way, Bagdad Avenue and Cesar Chavez Street and on-site parking oriented behind the buildings consistent with goals of the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan. The orientation of the buildings support the City’s goals of promoting a walkable downtown environment with a welldesigned public realm.

Figure 2: Site Plan (Approved)

Page 236 ends

Item 16.

Parking
The applicant proposes 104 on-site parking spaces and 38 on-street parking spaces. Parking based on 120,873 sq. ft. of gross floor area, would require 362 spaces in the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan. The Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan draft development standards allow for on street parking to be counted toward required parking if within 500 feet of the main entrance of the development. Senate Bill 35 allows affordable housing development within ½ mile of public transit to be exempted from parking standards. With the application of density bonus law, only 61 parking spaces would be required or a surplus of 81 parking spaces. Staff is supportive of allowing the development to utilize on-street parking to count towards satisfying parking requirements, which would be provided by constructing 10 diagonal parking spaces on Bagdad Avenue and 28 diagonal parking spaces on Tripoli Way.

Architectural Design
The overall architectural style of the approved project incorporates Spanish Colonial Revival design, which was amended from the original approval and the elevations are depicted below:
6 th Street Frontage (Proposed)
Cesar Chavez Street Frontage
Bagdad Avenue Frontage (Proposed)
Tripoli Avenue Frontage (Proposed)

Page 237 ends

Item 16.

Landscape Design
The plant schedule shows a variety of trees including “Mulga”, “Hong Kong Orchard,” “Desert Willow,” “Texas Ebony,” “Drake Elm” and “California Fan Palm.” The project is conditioned to modify the landscape plan to create planters adjacent to curb at Cesar Chavez Street and planted with Hong Kong Orchard trees to provide shade for pedestrians. The planters will include waterefficient shrubs including “Bank Catclaw”, “Do-La-la Bougainvillea”, “Compact Texas Ranger”, “Mexican Bush Sage.” Succulents will include “Dwarf Century Plant,” “Blue Flame Agave,” “Red Yucca”, and “Toothless Desert Spoon”. A cluster of palm trees is also provided at the corner of Cesar Chavez Street and First Street along with other landscape materials design to make the future public art location a focal point.

CONSISTENCY WITH THE GENERAL PLAN
The proposed project is within the Downtown Center land use designation of the General Plan 2035 Land Use and Community Character Element. The Downtown Center is intended to bring the entire community together in a one-of-a-kind Coachella Center, which allows for commercial uses. The General Plan allows for a residential density of 20-65 dwelling units/acre and a Floor Area Ratio of 0.5-3 for commercial uses. The project proposes a density of 38 dwelling units per acre and is thereby consistent with the General Plan. The project is consistent with the policies of the Land Use and Community Character's Sub-Area #2 policies, which recognize that Downtown is the heart of the City where mixed use development is encouraged and creates a new gateway to downtown near intersection of Sixth Street and Cesar Chavez Street.

CONSISTENCY WITH ZONING
The subject site is zoned C-G (General Commercial) zone PUD (Planned Unit Development) Overlay Zone on the 2.8 acres of vacant C-G (General Commercial) zoned property, which allows the applicant to establish flexible development standards and permitted uses insofar as it is consistent with the General Plan. The project complies with the draft Development Standards of the Sixth Street Pueblo Viejo Zone, except for unit size, parking, retail space height, residential first floor height, and public/common open space requirements.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT CONSIDERATION
The City of Coachella has determined that the proposed project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 as an infill development because the project involves development on a site under five acres where the parcel complies with General Plan policies and zoning regulations, and where the project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species, and where the site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services, and the project will not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality. The subject site is surrounded on all sides by urban uses and has no suitable habitat for endangered species. There are existing utilities and public services available to serve the site. As proposed, the project will comply with General Plan policies and zoning code regulations and the project does not result in any significant traffic, air quality, or water quality impacts. As such, no additional environmental review is required.

ALTERNATIVES:
1) Adopt Resolution No. 2023-11 approving amendment to conditions of approval for CUP 351 and Architectural Review No. 22-04 with the findings and conditions as recommended by the Planning Commission.

Page 240 ends

Item 16.
2) Adopt Resolution No. 2023-11 approving CUP 351 and Architectural Review No. 22-04 with the findings and conditions as recommended by the applicant. 3) Not approve Resolution No. PC 2023-11 and maintain existing approvals of Council Resolution No. 2022-96 (CUP No. 351 and AR No. 22-04 and Ordinance 1193 CZ 22-01). 3) Continue this item and provide staff and the applicant with direction.

RECOMMENDED ALTERNATIVE(S):

Staff recommends alternative #1. Staff is concerned about the significant amount of modifications requested by the applicant since the original proposed design and requests that any cost savings that may result in the project construction be used to increase funding for park improvements or project enhancements.

D. GENERAL GUIDELINES – PROJECT THEME
The project is designed as an 100% Affordable Apartment Project whereby the natural character of the site and surroundings are integrated into the community design (Figure 6 Landscape Concept Plan). A landscape theme reminiscent of early California Heritage is used. Landscape themes on 6th Avenue will continue the current design associated with the adjacent Pueblo Viejo Villas project and the DPSS building. The property features quality commercial themes along the frontages of the community serving facilities located on Cesar Chavez and 6th Street. The project will extend these themes down Tripoli Way and Bagdad with angled parking with landscape pockets. This project will benefit by the Sunline Transit Center which is located on the southeast corner of 4th Street and Cesar Chavez.

E. PURPOSE AND INTENT

Subject: Budget for 6th Street Improvements/IIG Scope
Tripoli Apartments (“Project”) located at 51392 Cesar Chavez Street Dear Mr. Simmons and Dr. Martin:

The team at Chelsea Investment Corporation is hard at work refining the details of the Tripoli project that is heading toward a start of construction in May of 2023. We appreciate the guidance of the city’s internal managers and staff on project requirements. One of the keys to the project’s successis ensuring that the scope of work we will be performing is in balance with project resources so that we can close financing on time.

Since our last meeting at the council on the topic of project cost, we have been able to budget the offsite work from Cesar Chavez to Palm on 6th Street. These upgrades will ensure the downtown Coachella gets the comprehensive update to streets and sidewalks that was originally envisioned.

Next the team is working on plans for the 9th Street Park. We recently met with the planning commission to discuss the possibility of removing an elevator bank from the smaller building at the Tripoli Apartments and using the resulting savings to pay for the park. The commission voted to approve that plan citing the greater good for the city’s residents from park improvements. There was an issue with the wording of the approval, however, that we wanted to bring to your attention.

The commission intended to vote on a motion that ensured that our company would be required to perform a minimum of work of $350,000 OR the cost of deleting the elevator bank.

Unfortunately due to the complexity of the issue and the last-minute addition of the elevator deletion cost, the commission worded the item as $350,000 AND the cost of deleting the elevator bank. Unfortunately there are not enough project resources for us to make this commitment which would result in the project being out of balance between resources and cost. We ask for your help to ensure that this trade-off is worded in such as way so that the project can make the commitment.

Finally there is the issue of project savings. Chelsea Investment Corporation does not object to working collaboratively with the city to spend any savings that may result from the project. The issue arises with how to process that commitment in the legal documents related to the project financing including how to define savings. A second issue with using savings from the overall project for the park is the schedule since savings would be calculated at project completion in December 2024. Therefore construction on the park would be held up until that time. A third consideration is that project savings could be used for DocuSign Envelope ID: C9F28D8F-7CE3-458B-B195-785F804F35DC

TRIPOLI CIC, LP
Budget for 6th Street Improvements/IIG Scope
February 28, 2023
improvements to the building or to the retail spaces increasing the likelihood that we can attract new tenants to benefit the downtown area.

The options we would recommend for wording on project savings are as follows:

1. Set a fixed offsite budget with the City Engineer where any savings from the scope surrounding the project site (including the extensive utility undergrounding), and 6th Street would automatically be used for park improvements AND/OR

2. Set series of meeting to work collaboratively with the city at 50% complete, 75% complete and project completion to review potential uses of contingency that can include building upgrades to benefit tenants, retail upgrades to attract tenants, and/or park improvements.

We appreciate the city’s active involvement in the project that ensures our plans meet the needs of city residents and future tenants of the Tripoli Apartments. Please be sure to contact Alex Earl at [email protected] or (760) 917-3463 if you have suggestions or need clarifications about these issues.
