Introduction
Purpose of the Annual Progress Report
Section 65400 of the California Government Code requires the City to file an annual report addressing the status of the General Plan and reporting on the progress made towards implementing its goals and policies. The progress report must be submitted to the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The annual progress report provides a means to monitor the success of implementing the General Plan and determine if changes are needed in the plan or its implementation programs. This report follows the Annual Progress Report section of the 2017 General Plan Guidelines. Major planning activities are described, along with other City actions, in the section on implementation of General Plan Elements.

Purpose of the General Plan
The General Plan is mandated by California Government Code Section 65300, which requires each city and county to adopt a plan that outlines a vision for the physical development of the City. The Emeryville General Plan establishes a vision for the City’s long-term growth and enhancement and provides strategies and action items to achieve this vision.

The plan also establishes a baseline by which to determine whether development proposals and public projects are consistent with the City’s goals for the future. The plan also conveys these goals to City staff, partner agencies, developers, and the public at large, and ensures that all entities adhere to common objectives.

Status of the Adopted Elements of the General Plan
State law requires that general plans include seven elements which must cover the following topics: Land Use, Circulation, Housing, Safety, Noise, Conservation, and Open Space. Elements Emeryville 2021 General Plan Annual Report Page 2
for other topics of local concern may also be included. The Emeryville General Plan includes two optional elements: Urban Design and Sustainability. Except for the Housing Element, all elements of the Emeryville General Plan were adopted as a single document on October 13, 2009. State requirements for housing elements are more detailed and specific than for the other general plan elements, and housing elements are updated every eight years according to a schedule set by the State. For these reasons, the Emeryville Housing Element is contained in a separate document which was adopted by the City Council on November 18, 2014 and certified by the State HCD on January 28, 2015. The Housing Element covers the eight-year period from 2015 to 2023. Other elements may be updated less frequently and typically have a 20-year horizon.

This report describes implementation of the 2015-2023 Housing Element. The Regional Housing Needs Allocation implementation period runs from July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2022. This report includes building permits issued from January 1 through December 31, 2021.

The correspondence between State mandated elements and the Emeryville General Plan is illustrated in the table below.

Emeryville 2021 General Plan Annual Report Page 3
General Plan Amendment
There were no amendments to the General Plan in 2021.

Development Decisions
In 2021, the Planning Commission approved the Emeryville Center of Innovation, the build-out of the former Novartis portion of the Chiron Life Sciences Center Planned Unit Development.

The project consists of four new lab buildings totaling over 900,000 square feet and a parking structure with approximately 1,991 spaces.

In 2021 the Building Division issued building permits for multiple accessory dwelling units; a triplex at 1270 Ocean; Bayview Apartments (the Nady site) which has 186 residential units; and the former proposed grocery store site, which was modified for a research and development use at 6201 Shellmound.

Previously approved projects in the development “pipeline”, but with no Planning or Building decisions in 2021 include 167 dwelling units and 14,000 square feet of retail space at Market Place parcel A on Shellmound Street (previously approved by the Planning Commission in July 2015); 17 residential and live-work units and 672 square feet to be redeveloped as a café and community space at the Baker Metal Building on 65th Street (previously approved by the Planning Commission in August 2009); and the Adeline Springs project at 3637 Adeline Street (approved by the Planning Commission in March 2018 that includes 33 residential units.

These major development projects and their approval steps are shown in the attached Development Decisions and Pending Projects table.

In addition, Planning Division staff issued about 44 administrative Planning approvals in 2021, and the Building Division issued a total of 756 building permits of various types (including plumbing, electrical and mechanical).

General Plan Implementation
Chapter 8 of the Emeryville General Plan contains an implementation program to achieve the goals of every action item within each element (except the Housing Element, which contains its own implementation program and is addressed below). The General Plan also describes the processes for implementing each action item, and identifies the agencies involved. Appendix A, General Plan Annual Progress Report, tracks progress made on those 79 actions during the 2020 calendar year. Of the 79 actions, 16 were completed before 2020, and the City made progress on 59 in 2021. No progress was made in 2021 on four actions: PP-A-11 locating a new Police Administration facility, UD-A-10 developing new sign regulations, or ST-A-6 developing an environmentally preferable municipal purchasing program. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, TA-14 work with transit providers to expand hours of operation, was not feasible as transit operators continue to operate with reduced service hours and routes in an attempt to adjust to Emeryville 2021 General Plan Annual Report Page 4
ridership changes. The following sections contain some of the highlights from each element General Plan Annual Progress Report.

In 2021 the City hosted meetings of the Emeryville CERT Team in the months of January, March, May, July, September, and November. The CERT Team received trainings on various subjects including, ICS, the City’s Emergency Operations Plan and how to conduct Windshield Surveys. A subcommittee of CERT Team members was formed to develop Activation Instructions for the Team.

The Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD) and the City sponsored two CERT Basic Phase 1 Trainings. The first training took place from April – June and the other from September – November. 12 community members completed the online training portion. The final hands-on portion will be scheduled in the second quarter of 2022.

The CERT Team along with ACFD gave a presentation to two Homeowner’s Associations on Emergency Preparedness for Multi-Unit Buildings.

ACFD provided hosted one Personal Emergency Preparedness (PEP) training for Emeryville resulting in 37 people trained.

systems
A private sewer lateral replacement ordinance was adopted in 2011. In 2021, the City continued to issue Private Sewer Lateral Permits to insure compliance.

UD-A-1 Prepare Design Guidelines
The Emeryville Design Guidelines were adopted in December of 2010, and were amended in August of 2012 and again in May of 2015. The Design Guidelines are referred to in all Major and Minor Design Reviews as well as all new development plans.

UD-A-2 Implement neighborhood and
area plans
The 2020 approval of the Art Center helped to implement the Park Avenue District Plan. Neighborhood plans are utilized and referenced on an ongoing basis when looking at design requirements, especially for the public realm, for new developments.

UD-A-3 Update Zoning Ordinance
The Zoning Ordinance, also known as the Planning Regulations, was updated in 2013 to implement the 2009 General Plan. It has been amended several times since then. Amendments to the Planning Regulations in 2021 included an amendment to prohibit crematories in all zoning districts (ORD21-002) and to allow cannabis manufacturing with a minor conditional use permit (ORD21-003). These ordinances did not have a direct impact on urban design.

UD-A-4 Prepare a Citywide streetscape
plan
Streetscape design is addressed in the Emeryville Design Guidelines and the Pedestrian and Bicycle Plan. The rain garden at San Pablo/MacArthur is effectively finished, as are the planters on 45th, Adeline, Doyle and 61st that were part of the Marketplace "Parcel G" stormwater treatment obligation. The streetscape designs in the Emeryville Design Guidelines are utilized and referenced on an ongoing basis when looking at design requirements for new developments.

CONSERVATION, SAFETY AND NOISE
CSN-A-1
Plant new trees and other
plantings, and maintain
existing healthy trees
In 2021 under the direction of a licensed arborist City street trees were inspected for structural integrity and health prior to pruning or removal.

Structural pruning and tree maintenance is an ongoing effort for the Public Works Maintenance Division and is especially focused after leaf drop in the fall. On case by case basis, tree replacement are installed per the site specific recommendations of the Arborist and City standards related to tree installation in the public right of way.

Approved private developments are often conditioned to improve the urban forest within the public right of way along development project frontages and to maintain tree health into the future. The WELO requires minimum rootable soil volumes for all new trees planted and the City arborist is consulted for the selection of tree species that will thrive in the site specific conditions they are planted in. In 2021 a total of approximately thirty street trees were planted on Sherwin Street, Horton Street, 39th Street, and West Macarthur Boulevard.

CSN-A-2
