NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CONCORD DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. All of the facts set forth in the Recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated and adopted as findings of the City Council as if fully set forth herein.

Section 2. The City Council has reviewed, considered, and evaluated all of the Planning Commission Information, City Council Information, all other pertinent plans, documents, and testimony prior to acting upon Ordinance.

Section 3. The documents and other materials that constitute the record of proceedings upon which the City Council has based its decision are located in an may be obtained from the City of Concord Clerk’s Office, 1950 Parkside Drive, Concord, CA 94519.

Section 4. CEQA
Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c), 15061(b)(3), and/or 15378, City Council this Ordinance is not subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, as amended, because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and falls within the “common sense” exemption set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), excluding projects where “it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, the Ordinance does not

Ord. No. 24-6 6
warrant further environmental review. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgement and analysis.

Section 5. Municipal Code Amendment Findings
1) The proposed amendment is consistent with the general plan.

The proposed amendment will implement Program 15.2 of the 2021 – 2031 Housing Element, and is in conformance with the General Plan by facilitating a balanced supply of housing types and prices to meet the needs for all economic segments of the community and promoting the expansion of housing opportunities for all groups. Amendments to implement state law are consistent with overarching General Plan policies related to streamlined reviews, transit-oriented development, and improving land use compatibility, including but not limited to:
 Policy E-2.1.2: Retain and attract business and facilitate businesses’ efforts to develop and expand and Policy E-2.1.4: Continue to improve the streamlined permit processes and expedited permit decisions. Amendments promoting these policies include streamlining reviews of Family Day Care Homes as required by State law.
 Policy E-3.1.5: Promote transit-oriented Downtown development and activities that take advantage of nearby transit services, such as BART, bus services, and Buchanan Field Airport. Proposed amendments allowing a density increase of up 25 percent for multifamily and eligible mixed-use developments in the Transition Station Overlay district will incentivize the construction of transit-oriented development downtown.
 Policy LU-1.1.1: Support land use decisions that reinforce and capitalize on neighborhood strengths and benefit neighborhood identity and scale. Proposed amendments to facilitate residential development in neighborhoods and zoning districts that are compatible with residential uses, including higher-density multifamily developments, are consistent with this policy.

Ord. No. 24-6 7
2) The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the city.

In response to California’s housing shortage, the State has adopted laws to accelerate housing production by removing or limiting the City’s discretionary review on housing developments. The proposed amendment would implement State law and Housing Element Program 15.2. The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City. On the contrary, the proposed amendment will serve the City’s public interest by facilitating residential projects to help alleviate the City of Concord’s housing shortage and special housing needs, and facilitating non-residential projects by clarifying applicable standards and review procedures. In the event the City has discretion on projects facilitated by the proposed amendment, the City will evaluate the projects against applicable policies to ensure they will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, or welfare of the City. 3) Zoning map amendments shall also find that the affected site is physically suitable, including absence of physical constraints, access, compatibility with adjoining land uses, and provision of utilities, for the requested zoning designation and proposed or anticipated uses and/or development.

This amendment does not include any amendments to the zoning map.

Section 6. The City Council does hereby delegate authority to the City Manger or his or her designee to add sites to the 2023-2031 Housing Element Sites Inventory to ensure the City maintains adequate capacity to meet its RHNA for all income levels.

Section 7. The City Council does hereby pass and adopt this Ordinance No. 24-6.

Section 8. Municipal Code Title 18 (Development Code), Chapters 18.20 (General Terms),

Page 7 of 37 ends

Ord. No. 24-6 8
(Business Licenses and Regulations), Section 5.05.090 (Exemptions), are hereby amended to implement state law and the 2023 – 2031 Housing Element (Housing Element Programs 15.2 and

16.1), as set forth in Exhibits A- L.

Section 9. This Ordinance No. 24-6 shall become effective thirty (30) days following its passage and adoption. In the event a summary of said Ordinance is published in lieu of the entire Ordinance, a certified copy of the full text of this Ordinance shall be posted in the office of the City Clerk at least five (5) days prior to its adoption and within fifteen (15) days after its adoption, including the vote of the Councilmembers.

Page 29 of 37 ends

Concord Municipal Code
Chapter 18.160 PARKING, LOADING, AND ACCESS

Page 3 ends

The Concord Municipal Code is current through Ordinance 23-8, passed October 3, 2023.

A. Projects in the Transit Station Overlay District. For nonresidential uses, if the project is located within one-half mile of a BART station, the number of parking spaces may be reduced by 25 percent of the required number of spaces in Table 18.160.040.

B. Restricted Senior or Special Needs Housing Projects. The review authority may reduce the number of spaces required by Table 18.160.040 for senior or special needs housing projects, based on quantified information provided by the applicant that documents the need for fewer spaces. If a reduction is approved, a restriction shall be recorded prohibiting the property from converting to general market housing unless additional parking is provided consistent with the requirements of Table 18.160.040.

C. Shared On-Site Parking. Where two or more adjacent nonresidential uses have distinct and different peak hours of parking demand (e.g., a theater and a bank), a reduction in the required number of parking spaces may be allowed through a minor use permit. The reduction shall be in accordance with the following:

1. The amount of reduction shall be determined based on quantitative information provided by the applicant that documents the number of spaces required for each use and the peak hours of parking demand for each use;

2. Approval shall require a recorded restriction running with the land, guaranteeing that the required parking will be maintained exclusively for the specified uses;

3. Any change to the uses or the hours of operation or peak demand shall be subject to city approval and additional parking facilities may be required if the change to a use will create a greater demand for parking; and

4. The city may require parking facilities in addition to those originally approved upon a finding by the review authority that adequate parking to serve the use has not been provided.

D. Off-Site Parking. Required parking may be located in a common or shared parking facility up to 300 feet away from the site of the proposed use, measured from the nearest corner of the parking facility to the main entrance via the shortest pedestrian route, subject to approval by the planning division, if a shuttle or similar means of transportation is provided between the parking facility and the use.

1. Evaluation. The review authority shall consider the distance between the parking area and the proposed use to determine if the off-site facility will satisfy the parking needs of the proposed use.

2. Parking Agreement. Off-site parking on private property shall only be approved if there is an agreement between the landowner of the parking lot and the use it serves. The agreement shall provide a guarantee that the required spaces will be maintained and reserved for the uses served for as long as such uses are in operation.

3. Recorded Documents. A copy of the agreement recorded in the county recorder’s office shall be provided to the city.

4. Effect of Termination of Agreement. Upon notification that a lease for required off-site parking has terminated, the planning division shall determine a reasonable time in which one of the following shall occur:
a. Substitute parking is provided that is acceptable to the planning division; or b. The size or capacity of the use is reduced in proportion to the parking spaces on the lot.

5. Parking Agreements for Underutilized Parking Lots. Where 20 percent or more of a development’s parking spaces are not occupied during the period that the parking is proposed to be shared by another user, group, development, or the public, said parking spaces may be shared and counted towards required parking through a shared parking agreement prepared and approved in accordance with Government Code Section 65863.1. The shared parking agreement shall be recorded on all properties providing the required parking.

E. Valet Parking. The review authority may modify the parking requirements required by this chapter (e.g., to allow tandem parking) in the case of a use proposed to have permanent valet parking.

The Concord Municipal Code is current through Ordinance 23-8, passed October 3, 2023.

F. Religious Institution Affiliated Housing Development Project. Parking reductions are allowed in conformance with Government Code Section 65913.6.

FG. Single-Family Residential Covered Parking. In order to encourage continued owner-occupancy and investment in small, older single-family dwellings, the planning division may grant an exception to the requirement for covered parking where an existing garage or carport is proposed to be converted to dwelling space, subject to an administrative permit approval in accordance with Chapter 18.420 CDC (Administrative Permits); provided, that all of the following findings are made:

1. That new construction to provide covered parking is:
a. Not feasible due to setback requirements; or
b. Incompatible with the function or appearance of the residence or its surroundings.

2. That the existing living area of the residence is a maximum of 1,500 square feet, exclusive of covered parking area.

3. That existing uncovered paved off-street parking spaces not be reduced, and that in any case at least one off- street space shall remain on the site.

4. That the granting of such exception will not impair safe and convenient vehicular movement in the adjacent residential area.

H. Electric vehicle charging and hydrogen-fueling stations. In accordance with Government Code Section 65850.7, existing on-site parking may be reduced for the construction of electric vehicle charging or hydrogen-fueling stations, and are not required to be replaced unless the loss of parking results in a specific, adverse impact upon the public health or safety, as determined by the Chief Building Official or designee.

Where the Chief Building Official or designee finds a parking reduction will result in an adverse impact, replacement parking may be required subject to a use permit in accordance with Chapter 18.435 (Minor Use Permits and Use Permits).

GI. Other Adjustments. For other uses that can demonstrate that due to special circumstances, such as the nature of the use, proximity to transit, transportation characteristics of the use, or implementation of a transportation demand management program, there will be a reduced demand for parking at the site, the net number of parking spaces required by Table 18.160.040 (which would also include any parking space(s) satisfied by payment of an in-lieu parking fee) may be reduced by up to 25 percent. Reductions may be allowed subject to a use permit, as follows:

1. The parking demand study, as directed by the city, substantiates the need for less parking (e.g., documentation of customer frequency, information on parking standards required for the proposed use by other cities, etc.) than required in Table 18.160.040;

2. The applicant has demonstrated that the project could provide additional parking if long-term parking demand requires additional parking; and

3. Parking demand generated by the project will not have a detrimental impact on the on-street parking in the surrounding area. [Ord. 17-6 (Exh. A); Ord. 13-5; DC 2012 § 122-386]. [NO AMENDMENTS TO SUBSEQUENT SECTIONS]

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CONCORD DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. All of the facts set forth in the Recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated and adopted as findings of the City Council as if fully set forth herein.

Section 5. Municipal Code Amendment Findings
1) The proposed amendment is consistent with the general plan.

Page 3 of 35 ends

Ord. No. 24-7 4
The proposed amendments would be consistent with several General Plan policies, including the following:
 Policy E-2.1.2: Retain and attract business and facilitate businesses’ efforts to develop and expand. Establishing clear and practical parking requirements for properties with non-conforming parking conditions will facilitate occupancy of such properties by new businesses or expansion of existing businesses.  Policy E-2.1.4: Continue to improve the streamlined permit processes and expedited permit decisions. Permitting requirements for the NTS (North Todos Santos) district will be streamlined and address conflicting permitting requirements.
 Policy LU-1.1.1: Support land use decisions that reinforce and capitalize on neighborhood strengths and benefit neighborhood identity and scale; Policy LU-

1.1.3: Require new development in residential areas to preserve and enhance positive neighborhood characteristics; and Policy LU-1.1.4: Protect residential uses from the impacts of more intensive land uses through good site planning and/or appropriate mitigation and operational measures. Elevating the permitting requirements for Mixed-Use Projects in the CMX (Commercial Mixed Use) district from an administrative permit to a use permit enables the City to conduct a more appropriate and transparent level of discretionary review that provides greater opportunity for residents and occupants of the surrounding neighborhood to be involved in the decision-making process.
2) The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the city.

The proposed amendments in and of themselves would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City. Any projects facilitated by the proposed amendments would be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to ensure project- specific impacts are not detrimental.

Page 4 of 35 ends

Ord. No. 24-7 5
3) Zoning map amendments shall also find that the affected site is physically suitable, including absence of physical constraints, access, compatibility with adjoining land uses, and provision of utilities, for the requested zoning designation and proposed or anticipated uses and/or development.

This amendment does not include any amendments to the zoning map.

Section 6. The City Council does hereby pass and adopt this Ordinance No. 24-7.

Section 7. Municipal Code Title 18 (Development Code), Chapters 18.20 (General Terms),

18.30 (Residential Districts), 18.35 (North Todos Santos District), 18.40 (Office and Commercial Districts), 18.45 (Downtown Districts), 18.50 (Business and Industrial Districts), 18.55 (Public/Quasi-Public District), 18.60 (Community Land Districts), 18.105 (Transit Station Overlay), 18.150 (General Development Standards), 18.160 (Parking, Loading, and Access), 18.200 (Standards for Specific Uses), and 18.410 (Zoning Clearance) are hereby amended for consistency with state law and/or clarify and improve review processes. //

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.d
November 12, 2024
Background
The original Growth Management Program (GMP) contained in Measure C, approved by Contra Costa County voters in 1989, required CCTA to annually review local jurisdiction compliance with the GMP. In January 2001, CCTA changed the program to a biennial reporting period based on calendar years. Under the biennial program, funds are allocated to Cities and the County subject to submittal of a biennial Compliance Checklist (Checklist) by each local jurisdiction and a finding of compliance by CCTA.

CCTA provides Local Street Maintenance and Improvement (LSM) funds for the next two fiscal years (FY) based on a jurisdiction’s compliance with the previous two calendar years (CY).

Measure J was approved by Contra Costa County voters in 2004 and became effective on April 1, 2009, following the sunset of Measure C. The Checklist for CYs 2022 and 2023 covers the compliance reporting period of January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2023, under Measure J.

For the City of Concord to be eligible to receive LSM funds for FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-23, the City Council must first certify the Checklist (Attachment 1). City staff will then submit the certified Checklist to CCTA for a series of committee reviews and ultimate approval by the CCTA Board.

Each year, CCTA allocates approximately 20% of the Measure J sales tax collections to the local jurisdictions in the form of LSM funds. The remaining 80% of the Measure J revenues are made available to local jurisdictions on a competitive, project-by-project basis, or as determined by TRANSPAC or the other Regional Transportation Planning Committees in the County. The LSM funds are distributed proportionately among jurisdictions based on population and road miles. Total LSM funds available for distribution to local jurisdictions for FY 2023-24 are estimated at $21.06 million, of which $2.10 million will be allocated and paid to Concord as soon as the CCTA Board approves the certified Checklist.

Analysis
The City Council is required to certify consistency with Measure J requirements by addressing the following issues contained in the attached Checklist:
 Implementation of Action Plans
 New or Continued Development Mitigation Programs
 Housing Options
 Traffic Impact Studies
 Multi-jurisdictional Planning
 Five-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP)

Page 2 of 129 ends

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 5.d
November 12, 2024
 Transportation Systems Management Ordinance or Resolution  Growth Management Element
 Urban Limit Line
 LSM Reporting and Audit Forms
The City of Concord is in compliance with all of these requirements and, therefore, staff recommends that the City Council certify the attached Checklist. Once certified by the City Council, Concord’s Checklist will be reviewed by two CCTA committees: (1) the Citizens Advisory Committee, and (2) the Planning Committee. The Checklist will then be forwarded to the CCTA Board for final approval and release of LSM funds. These funds will be used as part of the City’s CIP program to implement pavement rehabilitation projects, new traffic signal installations, and other citywide transportation improvements.

Financial Impact
The City of Concord will receive an estimated $2.10 million in LSM funds from CCTA for FY 2023-24 upon final approval of the certified Checklist by the CCTA Board. An additional $2.10 million of LSM funds will be granted by CCTA on the one-year anniversary of the payment date for the FY 2023-24 funds. The funds will be made available for LSM projects and incorporated into the City’s five-year Capital Improvement Plan.

Environmental Determination
Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c)(2), 15061(b)(3) and/or 15378, this activity is not subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, as amended, as it does not constitute a “project,” does not commit the City to a definite course of action, does not constitute discretionary approval of a specific project, and will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, , the activities consist of continuing administrative or maintenance activities, creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities, and/or organizational or administrative activities of governments, and in the alternative is exempt from CEQA as it falls within the “common sense” exemption set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), excluding projects where “it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.” No unusual circumstances exist and none of the exceptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgment and analysis. Individual projects will undergo CEQA analysis as necessary.

44 5.2.1 TRANSPAC Subregional Transportation Mitigation Program (STMP) This Program is intended to fulfill the requirement for a Subregional Transportation Mitigation Program (STMP) established by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority as part of each jurisdiction 's compliance with the Measure J Growth Management Program. STMP requirements are applicable to jurisdictions with statutory land use authority in the Central Contra Costa TRANSPAC area.

This program creates a requirement for an interjurisdictional agreement(s) to mitigate traffic impacts of net new peak hour vehicle trips should a proposed development meet or exceed the established interregional net new peak hour vehicle trip threshold for Routes of Regional Significance and that result in significant cumulative traffic impacts on such Routes. As provided under CEQA, an impacted jurisdiction may request an analysis of and mitigation from a proposed development outside that jurisdiction even if the established thresholds in the STMP may not have been met.

1. While the standard for project notifications to TRANSPAC and other RTPCs remains at 100 net new peak hour vehicle trips, the STMP is geared to an assessment of the cumulative impacts of net new peak hour vehicle trips and net new peak hour interregional vehicle trips on Routes of Regional Significance. Nexus and rough proportionality requirements are to be individually addressed as part of the proposed development 's environmental assessment under the California Environmental Quality Act, (CEQA) as amended. For the purposes of the STMP, "interregional trip " is defined as any trip with origin or destination outside of the "home" jurisdiction in which the development is located.

2. The STMP requires the execution of an interjurisdictional agreement(s) to mitigate the cumulative impacts of development generating peak hour and interregional vehicle trips at or above the thresholds established in paragraph 3 for the development and for Routes of Regional Significance (Note: a jurisdiction may voluntarily choose to address impacts of interregional trips on roads other than Routes of Regional Significance).

3. STMP requirements are to be followed if it is first determined that a development project generates 500 or more net new peak hour vehicle trips and subsequently is determined to generate 100 or more interregional net new vehicle trips in any peak hour on a Route of Regional Significance as defined in the Central County Action Plan and/or the Comprehensive Countywide Transportation Plan. Jurisdictions are to execute a mitigation agreement(s) with all impacted TRANSPAC jurisdictions.

Interjurisdictional agreements are strongly encouraged to be executed to address impacts on TRANSPAC jurisdictions by outside jurisdictions.

Page 37 of 129 ends

45 TRANSPAC jurisdictions also expect to execute such agreements with jurisdictions impacted by TRANSPAC area projects as well.

For the purpose of determining if the above thresholds are met ( i.e. 500 net new peak hour project vehicle trips and 100 net new interregional peak hour vehicle trips) and assessing cumulative traffic impacts on Routes of Regional Significance, a cumulative trip analysis must be completed as part of the CEQA assessment.

This cumulative analysis is to review incremental trips (net new peak hour vehicle trips) not only generated by the proposed development, but also trips from "related past, present, and reasonably probable future projects " as defined by CEQA. If such cumulative analysis meets the trip thresholds and results in significant cumulative traffic impacts, the proposed development is responsible for mitigating its proportionate share of the impacts via an interjurisdictional agreement(s). Cumulative impacts are generally defined as a) existing traffic counts plus b) approved projects which have not yet been constructed or operated plus c) pending projects under review and consideration for approval by the proper agency(ies) plus d) any anticipated projects for which environmental review (e.g. Negative Declaration, Mitigated Negative Declaration or Environmental Impact Report/Study) has been completed.

4. The required CEQA environmental assessment for a development project is to be used to determine if cumulative impacts on Routes of Regional Significance need to be mitigated.

A. If a development project meets or exceeds the thresholds established in Section 3 above and the environmental assessment can be accomplished by a Negative or Mitigated Negative Declaration, the jurisdiction will undertake a focused traffic study to determine if the requirements of the STMP apply. The traffic study will assess cumulative traffic impacts on Routes of Regional Significance beyond the home jurisdiction.

B. Should the requirements apply, the interjurisdictional agreement(s) on mitigation measures, actions and/or fees would require the voluntary consent and sponsorship of the project applicant. (Note: if such voluntary consent is not achieved, CEQA requires that an EIR be prepared, see Section 4B.) The agreement(s) will be developed in cooperation with affected jurisdictions and are to include the identification, implementation and monitoring mechanism(s) for mitigation of impacts (e.g. Central County Action Plan and Countywide Comprehensive Transportation Plan mitigation measures, actions, payment of fees, etc.)
C. If a development project meets or exceeds the thresholds and the environmental assessment requires the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), the EIR will include an analysis of cumulative traffic

Page 38 of 129 ends

46 impacts outside the home jurisdiction to determine if the requirements of the STMP apply. Should the requirements apply, an interjurisdictional agreement(s) establishing the developer responsibility to mitigate project impacts (e. g. Central County Action Plan and Countywide Comprehensive Transportation Plan mitigation measures, actions, payment of fees, etc.) is required. The agreement(s) will be developed in cooperation with the affected jurisdictions and include the identification, implementation and monitoring mechanism(s) for mitigation requirements. Early consultation with affected jurisdictions is suggested.

D. If a development project does not exceed the thresholds as determined under the cumulative analysis) and the required CEQA assessment is accomplished through a Categorical Exemption, Negative or Mitigated Negative Declaration, the jurisdiction is not required to develop an interjurisdictional agreement(s). Such development projects are likely to be small infill projects which are to be encouraged to promote jobs/housing balance, increased services and sustainability.

E. It is also possible that after a traffic analysis has been completed under 4A or 4B above, the participating jurisdictions may determine that no significant cumulative traffic impacts are expected to occur on Routes of Regional Significance. Similarly, it may be determined that the development does not create or increase congestion on a Route of Regional Significance and/or that the traffic increase is insignificant relative to the existing traffic volumes and/or capacity of the Route, and, as a result, does not warrant the development/execution of an interjurisdictional agreement. Under such circumstances, the parties may determine, and should document, that an interjurisdictional agreement is not necessary.

5. TRANSPAC may amend the STMP with the approval of its member jurisdictions at any time.
