FOR THE OCTOBER 22 2025, REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Ron Walker, City Manager
Prepared by: Kathy Pease, AICP, Planning Consultant
Subject: Gordan’s Gym, Design Review Permit and Variance N/A: Funded: √ Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s): Planning Fees PROJECT NOTICE This hearing has been noticed in accordance with the requirements of California Planning and Zoning Law, Title 17, Chapter 65000, Government Code, as amended.

PROJECT SUMMARY:

Project Title: Gordan’s Gym
Applicant/Owner: Gordan Allen
Location 159 S Auburn Street
Land Use (existing) Vacant
Surrounding Uses:

Site: Mixed Use MU-2
North: Residential RM-1
South: Church MU-2
East: Residential RM-2
West: Residential RM-1
Assessor Parcel No: 006-101-015
Zoning District: Mixed Use MU-2
General Plan: Mixed Use
SURROUNDING LAND USES AND SETTING:

The project site is located on the northwest corner of East Oak Street and Auburn Street. The St. Dominic Catholic Church is located across the street, and existing single family residential uses are located west, north and to the east.

The site is vacant and slopes to the southwest. Mature trees are found on the site including five redwood trees near the corner of Auburn and Oak Streets, and one redwood tree in the middle of the site. Overhead PG&E electric power lines are located along the Oak Street frontage.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The applicant is proposing to construct a 6,890 square foot exercise facility, on a 14,416 square foot site. The use would be related to personal services which are allowed by right in the MU-2 Mixed Use zoning district.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Conduct a public hearing, discuss, and adopt resolution for Application DP 24-02 Design Review Permit and Variance 24-01, to reduce the required setbacks and to allow construction of a 6,890 square foot exercise facility.

Item 5A
28 City of Colfax Gordan’s Gym
Staff Report October 22, 2025 Page 2
Men’s and Women’s locker rooms are proposed. Five individual enclosed areas of approximately 225 square feet each would allow for office, massage, tanning, aerobics, and martial arts training areas. A larger open gym area would allow for weightlifting and aerobics training.

Materials
The building is one story rectangular in shape. The building includes Hardie plank lap siding exterior. The roof has a small pitch and will use metal roofing materials. Windows will provide some interest along the wall (see Attachment 2, Project Exhibits).

A four-foot retaining wall is proposed on the northern side of the property Paints
The building includes Benjamin Moor No 1636 Grey and Magnolia Home by Joanna Gains accent color Hopscotch No MAG 034 in a red color. Gutters are Leafguard brand in the color green.

Grading
The site slopes at approximately a 6% grade from north to south. The site will be graded to provide a more even building area and will be designed to balance the earthwork on the site. Retaining walls would be provided along the north property line and South Auburn Street.

Onsite storm water detention would be provided in an area along the alley.

Access
The site is located on the northwest corner of Auburn and East Oak Streets. Access to the site would be from East Oak Street via two driveway curb cuts. An alley also runs along the western back boundary of the site.

Access will also be provided to the rear of the project site from the alley.

The project includes new curbs, gutters, and sidewalks along the property frontage of South Auburn Street and East Oak Street. The existing sidewalk on South Auburn Street will be maintained.

Parking
Per the City’s municipal code, parking is required at one space per 150 sq. ft. of weight room area excluding area for locker and dressing rooms. The finished floor area of the gym would be approximately 2,423.5 square feet; therefore, the project would normally require 16 spaces. Due to constraints with the size of the site, the applicant is proposing five onsite spaces including two accessible American With Disabilities Act (ADA) spaces. Six on-street parking spaces would be available on South Auburn Street, and two on-street parking spaces would be available on East Oak Street, for a total of 13 on- and off-street spaces. Therefore, the project would be in an overall deficit of 3 onsite spaces. This would normally require approval of a Variance.

However, state law exempts projects from requiring any parking if they are within a quarter mile of a transit station. The train station is located 561 feet westerly from the project site, therefore, consistent with state law no onsite parking would required. Ample on-street parking is available since the project is on two street frontages. Therefore, parking is sufficient.

Landscaping
Mature landscaping includes five redwood trees are present on the site. It is likely these will be removed to accommodate the project. The project will include new landscaping with planted islands and perimeter trees, shrubs, and ground cover, as well as planter strip along the site along South Auburn Street. Cedars would be Item 5A
29 City of Colfax Gordan’s Gym
Staff Report October 22, 2025 Page 3
planted along the Alley, a Japanese maple would be planted near the front entrance, and three cedar trees are proposed on the South Auburn and East Oak Street corner.

Utilities
A drainage plan calls for collection of stormwater runoff on-site, with onsite detention adjacent to the alley and through the storm interceptor to the existing storm drain in Oak Street for the project area.

PG&E will require the overhead lines to be placed underground as part of the project. Unfortunately, staff is hearing that funding from PG&E will likely not be available, and that this will be a requirement of the project.

Water and sewer connections would be required.

A trash enclosure is proposed along the northwest boundary of the site.

PROJECT ANALYSIS:

General Plan/Zoning Consistency:

General Plan
The General Plan designation for the subject property is Mixed Use which allows a mix of commercial and residential uses. Personal services such as a gym are consistent with the General Plan land use Zoning
The project is zoned Mixed Use (MU-2). The Mixed Use - 2 zoning district which applies to the neighborhoods adjacent to the Historic Downtown and along segments of South Auburn Street. This zone provides areas in which residents can live, work, shop, worship, socialize, and obtain public services. A mix of land uses with varying degrees of intensity determined by location are allowed in the MU-2 zone.

Commercial uses that are appropriate among single-family and multifamily residences are intended for the MU-2 zone.

The proposed use is consistent with the City of Colfax General Plan and Zoning Code The maximum height allowed is 30 feet and the proposed building is one-story with a height of 28 feet.

Variance
In the MU-2 Zoning District the required front, and side setbacks are normally none, except where adjacent to residential, and then the residential setback for the residential district is required. The adjacent residential district is Multi-family High Density. Therefore, the required setbacks are 10-feet front yard, five-feet for the side setback and ten-foot for the rear setback.

The project proposes a deviation from the setbacks. The front entrance is proposed off of East Oak Street and the proposed setback is approximately 20-feet. The side setback on South Auburn is 4-feet, and the rear setback is four-feet, and the western side setback is 21.22-feet. Therefore, the applicant is requesting a variance for reduced side and rear setbacks.

Item 5A
30 City of Colfax Gordan’s Gym
Staff Report October 22, 2025 Page 4
A variance shall be obtained to allow deviation from the provisions of the zoning code governing the application of development standards such as parking requirements, setbacks, area and height requirements, as long as it does not exceed thirty-five (35) percent of the development standard.

A variance is being requested to reduce the required side setbacks, from five-feet to four feet. Staff reviewed the proposed project and believes the required findings can be made to allow the deviation in the side yard setback.

Variance Findings: The granting of a Variance requires four findings per the Municipal Code which include:

1. The proposed use or development is substantially consistent with the City of Colfax General Plan and any applicable specific plan;
The proposed project has a General Plan designation of Mixed Use which supports commercial uses that provide services to local residents and businesses. The proposed fitness facility is allowed by right in the MU-2 zoning district, therefore, the use is consistent.

2. The proposed use or development generally conforms with all applicable standards and requirements of this title; and
The project is located on the corner of Auburn and Oaks Streets, which provides easy access to the site and the reduced setback is minor in nature.

3. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the use or development is generally compatible with and shall not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in the area, or be detrimental or injurious to public or private property or improvements; and
A retaining wall separates the residential property to the north, and no windows are proposed on the closest property line (northern elevation), to maintain the residential use privacy. The requested setback is four-feet instead of five-feet; therefore, a reduction is only one foot on the northern property boundary.

4. The proposed use will not interfere with the nature and condition of the adjacent uses and structures.

The reduction of one foot for the side setback will not result in a significant impact on the adjacent neighbor. The mixed-use zoning district is intended to locate services within convenient access to residential uses. Conditions of approval have been included in the project to ensure that the use is compatible with the existing uses.

Findings for a Design Review Permit. The approval authority shall, based on evidence, must make the following findings as a condition for approval of a design review permit:

1. The project as approved balances reasonable use of the site for development, while it preserves and accentuates the natural features of the property, such as open space, topography, trees, wetlands and water courses, and provides adequate drainage for the project.

Item 5A
31 City of Colfax Gordan’s Gym
Staff Report October 22, 2025 Page 5
The project allows the use of the site for a fitness facility, which is a use permitted by right in the retail zoning district. Currently, there are five trees on the site, and the project includes replacement landscaping with trees, shrubs, and ground cover plantings. Storm water will be treated and detained on-site prior to being discharged onto E. Oak St. which will surface drain across E. Oak across the church parking lot, under an existing structure, and into a concrete drainage channel following existing drainage patterns. The project site design as approved provides access, vehicle parking, pedestrian and bicycle circulation, loading areas, landscaping and irrigation and lighting which results in a safe, efficient, and harmonious development and which is consistent with the applicable goals, policies and objectives set forth in the general plan and the design guidelines established for that zone district.

Item 5A
32 City of Colfax Gordan’s Gym
Staff Report October 22, 2025 Page 6
Landscaping – the site plan submitted with the application is compatible with the use and surrounding neighborhood. The proposed trees and shrubs will provide color, shade, and accents to the site.

Project Review by Outside Agencies:

The proposed map, site plan, and project description were submitted to interested/affected outside agencies for informal consultation. Comments received include the following:
• Placer County Water Agency sent a letter confirming that water service would need to be extended to the site from nearby existing infrastructure.
• Caltrans sent a letter requesting that the City consider traffic impact fees, and an analysis of the project.

Staff responded that the project was too small to require impact fees, and that the city did not have enough pending projects to justify adopting a traffic impact fee at this time. • Staff prepared a vehicle miles traveled (VMT) analysis which determined that the project would result in less than significant VMT impacts. The results were shared with Caltrans who indicated that they had no additional comments.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The project qualifies for an exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). CEQA Guideline Section 153303 (c) is intended to promote infill development within urbanized areas. The class consists of environmentally benign in-fill projects which are consistent with the local general plan and zoning.

It is intended to apply to small new construction that is below 10,000 square feet in floor area. In addition, a vehicle miles traveled (VMT) analysis was prepared that showed there would be no traffic impact.

FISCAL
The Project was funded by the Applicant with Planning Fees through the Design Review Permit Application process.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council adopt the attached Resolution __-2025 to Approve the Design Review Permit 24-01 and Variance 24-01 to allow construction of a one story 7,000 square foot building for personal services.

52 City of Colfax Develop a Disposable Foodware, Convenience Retail, and Roadway Staff Report October 22, 2025 Impact Fee Ordinance.

Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE OCTOBER 22, 2025 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Ron Walker, City Manager
Prepared by: Ron Walker, City Manager
Subject: Policy Initiative – Establishment of a Disposable Foodware, Convenience Retail, and Roadway Impact Fee Program to Fund Litter Abatement, Stormwater Compliance, and Frontage Road Maintenance
Budget Impact Overview:

N/A: Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):

Summary/Background
The City of Colfax experiences substantial environmental and infrastructure impacts from transient Interstate 80 traffic exiting for fast-food, drive-thru, and gas station convenience services within city limits.

These businesses collectively create high volumes of single-use packaging, beverage cups, and other waste that accumulates along streets, frontage roads, and drainage systems. It also creates significant seasonal roadway damage and demand for otherwise unnecessary road mitigation, requiring continual cleanup and maintenance by City staff.

While this commerce benefits the regional economy, it produces disproportionate local costs in litter abatement, storm-drain clearing, pavement wear, and roadside vegetation management without generating sufficient revenue to offset those burdens on the City’s budget.

Other California jurisdictions, such as Truckee, have successfully adopted Single-Use Foodware Reduction Ordinances imposing per-item charges on disposable packaging to encourage reuse and fund mitigation. Colfax can adapt this approach into a Regulatory Impact Fee Program that includes both food service and gas station convenience retailers, reflecting their shared contribution to transient waste and roadway impacts.

This fee structure authorized under the City’s general police power and the Mitigation Fee Act (Gov. Code §66000 et seq.) would be adopted by ordinance (not ballot) and restricted to documented city costs, consistent with Sinclair Paint Co. v. State Bd. of Equalization (15 Cal.4th 866, 1997).

Issue
Colfax bears the ongoing expense of maintaining public areas affected by I-80 traveler traffic, including litter pickup, storm-drain maintenance, and pavement rehabilitation along key corridors such as South Auburn Street, Canyon Way, and South Canyon Drive.

Both fast-food restaurants and gas stations with convenience marts serve as primary collection points for transient travelers who consume take-out food, beverages, and single-use packaging, which are often discarded within city limits.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution __-2025 Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to develop a Disposable Foodware, Convenience Retail, and Roadway Impact Fee Ordinance.

Item 8A
53 City of Colfax Develop a Disposable Foodware, Convenience Retail, and Roadway Staff Report October 22, 2025 Impact Fee Ordinance.

These activities not only create continuous litter and solid waste but also intensify roadway deterioration through seasonal and traffic-related factors unique to Colfax’s location and climate:
• High-volume seasonal tourism traffic from I-80 travelers, particularly during ski and snow seasons, leads to sustained surges in vehicle counts, parking turnover, and short-trip acceleration/deceleration patterns that wear down pavement far beyond typical small-town levels. • Chain installations, snow runoff, and freeze–thaw cycles accelerate cracking, pothole formation, and asphalt erosion along the City’s frontage and connector roads. • Heavy commercial and delivery traffic servicing fast-food and fuel establishments compounds this deterioration, requiring frequent patching, striping, and shoulder repair. • The City must perform otherwise unnecessary mitigation measures such as additional sand and de-icing management, drainage clearing, slope stabilization, resurfacing, and road widening, driven primarily by this transient corridor activity.

Collectively, these conditions have created a cycle of extraordinary roadway maintenance demand that outpaces Colfax’s local tax base and routine capital planning capacity.

Without a dedicated funding mechanism, these costs are absorbed by local taxpayers despite being driven largely by non-resident transient users.

A Disposable Foodware, Convenience Retail, and Roadway Impact Fee Program would:
• Recover Colfax’s actual costs of mitigating litter, drainage, and roadway impacts; • Establish a stable, legally compliant revenue source dedicated to maintenance and environmental compliance;
• Address the cumulative effects of seasonal roadway stress caused by transient travel and commercial service demand;
• Encourage visible community engagement through volunteer cleanup efforts; and • Demonstrate leadership in sustainable infrastructure funding among small California municipalities.

Recommended Action

1. Direct the City Manager to initiate a Regulatory Nexus and Cost-Recovery Study quantifying annual costs attributable to disposable packaging, convenience-retail litter, and transient-traffic roadway impacts.

2. Authorize the City Attorney to prepare a draft ordinance establishing a Disposable Foodware, Convenience Retail, and Roadway Impact Fee Program, structured to include:
• Environmental Impact Fee (e.g., $0.10 per disposable container/cup/bag distributed by food or convenience retailers) dedicated to litter and stormwater mitigation; • Roadway Impact Surcharge (e.g., $0.05 per transaction or disposable item) dedicated to frontage-road, street-sweeping, and pavement maintenance;
Item 8A
54 City of Colfax Develop a Disposable Foodware, Convenience Retail, and Roadway Staff Report October 22, 2025 Impact Fee Ordinance.
• Inclusion of gas stations, mini-marts, and convenience retailers selling ready-to-consume food or beverages;
• Fee exemptions for EBT/WIC transactions, as well as non-transient local customers through Automatic ZIP-Code Filter via Payment Processor;
• Mitigation Participation Credit for participating businesses that contribute labor or in-kind cleanup support; and
• Annual public reporting on fee revenue and expenditures.

3. Authorize Staff to engage with affected businesses to collect feedback and identify implementation support options (e.g., standardized signage, education materials, and compliance assistance).

4. Direct Staff to return to Council with:
• A completed Nexus and Cost Study and proposed draft ordinance within 90 days; and • A plan for a City Cleanup and Safety Improvement Pilot Program, inviting residents, students, and service groups to volunteer during city-sponsored cleanup days along high-traffic corridors funded in part through collected fees.

Resolution № __-2025

APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO DEVELOP A DISPOSABLE

FOODWARE, CONVENIENCE RETAIL, AND ROADWAY IMPACT FEE ORDINANCE WHEREAS, the City of Colfax experiences disproportionate environmental and infrastructure impacts from transient Interstate 80 traffic drawn to local fast-food, drive-thru, gas-station, and convenience-retail establishments; and,
WHEREAS, these activities generate high volumes of disposable packaging waste, roadside litter, and accelerated roadway deterioration resulting from heavy seasonal use, freeze–thaw cycles, tire-chain abrasion, and stormwater runoff; and,
WHEREAS, the City must perform otherwise unnecessary mitigation measures—including additional sweeping, snow and ice management, drainage clearing, resurfacing, and slope stabilization—to maintain roadway safety and compliance with stormwater regulations; and, WHEREAS, the cumulative impacts of transient travel have created extraordinary demands on the City’s maintenance resources, outpacing its small local tax base and placing disproportionate burden on residents; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council seeks to establish a fair, transparent, and legally compliant mechanism to recover the reasonable costs of mitigating such impacts through a regulatory fee program under the authority of the City’s police powers and the Mitigation Fee Act (Gov. Code § 66000 et seq.); and,
WHEREAS, the California Supreme Court’s decision in Sinclair Paint Co. v. State Bd. of Equalization (15 Cal.4th 866 (1997)) affirms the City’s authority to impose regulatory fees where revenues are restricted to programs that mitigate the adverse impacts of the activities being regulated; and, WHEREAS, the City Council intends for the program to include equitable fee exemptions for verified non-transient local customers, such as those whose billing ZIP codes or residency fall within the City of Colfax, ensuring that the fee targets transient traveler impacts rather than local commerce; and, WHEREAS, the City further intends to provide a Mitigation Participation Credit of up to one-third (1/3) of collected fee revenues for businesses that verifiably participate in or sponsor cleanup, beautification, or public-safety maintenance efforts that directly offset municipal maintenance costs; and, WHEREAS, the City also seeks to foster community pride and volunteerism through a City Cleanup and Safety Improvement Pilot Program, enabling residents, students, and service organizations to participate in city-sponsored cleanup days along high-traffic corridors, with support funded through collected fees.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Colfax hereby authorizes and directs the City Manager to initiate all preliminary actions necessary to develop a Disposable Item 8A
56 _________________________________________________________________________________________ City of Colfax Develop a Disposable Foodware, Convenience Retail, and Resolution _-2025 Roadway Impact Fee Ordinance.

Foodware, Convenience Retail, and Roadway Impact Fee Program, including commissioning a Regulatory Nexus and Cost-Recovery Study quantifying the City’s annual costs for litter abatement, stormwater management, and roadway maintenance associated with transient traffic and disposable packaging impacts; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council authorizes the City Attorney to prepare a draft ordinance establishing said program, consistent with Proposition 26, the Mitigation Fee Act, and applicable case law, for future consideration and adoption by the City Council; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council authorizes the City Attorney to prepare a draft ordinance establishing said program, consistent with Proposition 26, the Mitigation Fee Act, and applicable case law, for future consideration and adoption by the City Council; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the proposed ordinance shall include:
• An Environmental Impact Fee component dedicated to litter and stormwater mitigation; • A Roadway Impact Surcharge dedicated to street-sweeping, frontage-road maintenance, and resurfacing; • Inclusion of gas stations, mini-marts, and convenience retailers selling ready-to-consume food or beverages;
• Fee exemptions for EBT/WIC transactions and verified non-transient local customers; • A Mitigation Participation Credit program allowing participating businesses to receive up to one-third (1/3) of fee revenue in credits or reimbursements for documented cleanup or beautification participation; and

Summary/Background
The City of Colfax remains classified by the United States Postal Service (USPS) as a "Post-Office-Box-Only Delivery Area". While this classification has historically served our small-town context, it has produced serious complications for residents and businesses in the modern era. These issues include significantly cumbersome problems for residents including: vehicle registration errors, property tax bill non-delivery, residential address mismatch on official government identification, and so much more. Now residents are faced with potential denial of essential utility services and public safety risks.

Under FCC Enhanced 911 (E911) and related telecommunications requirements, all mobile devices and service accounts must be registered to a valid, USPS-standardized physical address to ensure accurate emergency response. Because USPS does not recognize Colfax Street addresses in its Address Management System (AMS) database, residents face repeated denials or delays when:
• Activating or transferring cell service;
• Registering for utilities and broadband;
• Receiving geographically-targeted emergency alerts;
• Establishing insurance or identity-verification services that depend on USPS-verified data.

In a city located within a Tier 3 High Fire-Threat District, this mismatch directly undermines public safety and emergency communication systems.

USPS currently maintains sole jurisdiction over address recognition and delivery designations under federal law. The City cannot compel USPS to provide mail delivery, but it can petition USPS and federal partners to recognize physical addresses for public-safety databases, without altering existing PO Box delivery. This has been successfully done by other local jurisdictions as shown in the following table:

Item 8B
58 City of Colfax Policy Initiative – Request for USPS and FCC Recognition of Physical Street Addresses in Colfax for E911 and Public Safety Compliance.

Staff Report October 22, 2025
Truckee, CA
USPS refused delivery to
physical homes; residents
couldn’t register phones for
E911.

Town worked with Placer County GIS + Cal OES to
certify physical addresses; USPS agreed to partial
recognition without mail delivery.

Big Bear Lake,
CA
PO Box-only USPS classification
caused invalid addresses for
emergency alerts.

City petitioned Congress; USPS updated AMS entries to
include physical addresses while keeping PO Box
delivery.

South Lake Tahoe,
CA Same issue. City negotiated with USPS + FCC regional reps for partial integration.

Recommended Action
The City of Colfax should:

1. Adopt a Resolution formally requesting USPS to update its AMS database to include all municipal street addresses as valid physical addresses for federal purposes.

2. Transmit official correspondence to:
o USPS Address Management Systems (AMS) Division, petitioning for USPS to designate all existing residential structures within its municipal limits as valid physical addresses. o Congressman Kevin Kiley, requesting congressional advocacy with USPS and the FCC. o The FCC Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau, requesting policy coordination. o The Placer County Board of Supervisors, seeking county-level support and possible GIS data collaboration.

3. Work with Placer County GIS and Cal OES to verify and certify all Colfax address points as “E911 compliant.”

4. Proactively establish a city-issued letter of physical address verification for residents to provide to carriers and utilities.
