CITY OF GROVER BEACH

POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CONDUCT AND DECORUM AT COUNCIL MEETINGS (Pursuant to Resolution No. 07-44, adopted 04-16-07, revised 02-18-2020) The City Council and staff welcomes and encourages civic participation and debate on issues. The Council values the public’s opinion and in every Council meeting invite and encourages the public to address the Council on any matter of interest. The Council adopted these policies and procedures for appropriate conduct and decorum at Council meetings and establish guidance for public participation during Council meetings.

These policies will foster and provide greater clarity to preserve the intent of open government and maintain a positive environment for public input and City Council decision-making.

1.0 DECORUM AND ORDER – IN GENERAL

1.1 The presiding officer is responsible for the maintenance of order and decorum at all times.

1.2 The presiding officer shall determine all points of order subject to the right of any Council member to appeal to the City Council by majority vote. If any appeal is taken, the question shall be “Shall the decision of the presiding officer be sustained” in which event a majority vote of the Council shall govern and conclusively determine such question of order.

1.3 All Council members, staff members and members of the public should speak respectfully and avoid the use of profanity, vulgarity and slanderous comments. Recognizing that the First Amendment precludes the City Council from prohibiting speakers from speaking based upon the content of their speech, the presiding officer shall use their best efforts, short of enforcement action, to remind and encourage all participating in the meeting to keep their speech respectful towards others and within bounds appropriate for children and persons of sensitivity toward course language as a courtesy to others present or otherwise viewing Council meetings.

2.0 DECORUM AND ORDER – COUNCIL MEMBERS

2.1 Manner of Speaking.

Any Council member desiring to speak shall first address the presiding officer. Upon recognition by the presiding officer, the Council member shall speak only to the question under debate.

U2.1(a) Questioning Staff.

A Council member desiring to question the staff should address his question to the City Manager, or, in appropriate cases, the City Clerk or City Attorney, who shall be entitled either to answer the inquiry or to designate some staff member for that purpose. Such a designation may be made at the time of any staff presentation or on the agenda listing for the item.

U2.1(b) Interruptions.

Once recognized, a Council member shall not be interrupted while speaking unless called to order by the presiding officer; unless a point of order is raised by another Council member, or unless the speaker chooses to yield to questions from another Council member.

3.0 DECORUM AND ORDER – STAFF

3.1 City Manager Responsibilities
The City Manager is responsible for ensuring that members of the administrative staff observe the rules of decorum and order set forth in this Policy.

3.2 AAddressing the City Council
Any administrative staff member desiring to address the City Council or members of the public shall first be recognized by the presiding officer. All remarks shall be addressed to the presiding officer and not to any individual Council Member or member of the public. Administrative staff members shall accord the utmost courtesy to the City Council, other administrative staff members and the public.

4.0 DECORUM AND ORDER – MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC

4.1 AAddressing the City Council
Any member of the public desiring to address the City Council or members of the public shall first be recognized by the presiding officer at the appropriate place on the agenda. All remarks shall be addressed to the presiding officer and not to any individual Council Member, City Manager, City Attorney or member of the administrative staff or member of the public.

4.2 Time Limitation for Addressing the City Council
Public comment when addressing the City Council shall be generally limited to three (3) minutes per speaker. Depending on the extent of the agenda and the number of persons desiring to speak on an issue, the presiding officer may, at the beginning of the hearing, set a different time limit for each speaker. Any person may speak for a longer period of time upon approval from the presiding officer, when deemed necessary, for instance when a person is speaking on behalf of a group or has a graphic or slide presentation requiring more time.

4.3 Failure to Yield, Disruptions
Any person who refuses to relinquish the floor after their allotted time or while attending the City Council meeting engages in conduct or speech which disrupts the business of the meeting shall be brought to order and/or removed from the room if the sergeant-at-arms is so directed by the presiding officer.

Disruptive remarks from the audience, stamping of feet, clapping, whistles, yells and similar demonstrations shall not be permitted by the presiding officer who may direct the sergeant-at-arms to remove such offenders from the room.

4.4 Prosecution
Aggravated cases shall be prosecuted on appropriate complaint signed by the presiding officer.

5.0 ENFORCEMENT OF DECORUM

5.1 The Chief of Police or his designee shall be the ex-officio sergeant-at-arms of the City Council. The sergeant-at-arms shall carry out all legal and valid orders and instructions given by the presiding officer for the purpose of maintaining order and decorum in the Council Chamber. Upon instructions from the presiding officer, it shall be the duty of the sergeant-at-arms to remove any disorderly person from the Council Chambers or place the disorderly person under arrest or both.

5.2 As set forth in Government Code Section 54957.9, in the event that any meeting is willfully interrupted by a person or group of persons so as to render the orderly conduct of such meeting unfeasible or impedes the ability of the Council to hold the meeting, and order cannot be restored by the removal of individuals who are willfully interrupting the meeting, the presiding officer may order the meeting room cleared and continue in session. Only matters appearing on the agenda may be considered in such a session. Duly accredited representatives of the press or other news media, except those participating in the disturbance, shall be allowed to attend any session held pursuant to this Section. Nothing in this Section shall prohibit the City Council from establishing a procedure for readmitting an individual or individuals not responsible for willfully disturbing the orderly conduct of the meeting.

BACKGROUND
Historically, the City displays the United States Flag, the State of California Flag, and the City of Grover Beach Flag at City Hall and other City facilities in accordance with Federal and State law.

Additionally, since 2020, the City has displayed the Pride Flag during Pride Month in June to recognize and celebrate the members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ) community in Grover Beach.

On May 8, 2023, the City Council adopted a resolution to establish a formal policy for displaying commemorative flags at City Hall and other City facilities. The policy clarified that City flagpoles are not intended to serve as a forum for free expression or speech by the public and established a process by which commemorative flags may be flown on City flagpoles, upon Council approval, to express the official sentiments of the City. Following this adoption, the Council directed staff to return with a resolution to authorize flying the Pride Flag as a symbol of support for the LGBTQ community during the month of June 2023 consistent with the adopted flag policy. The attached resolution will also authorize flying the Pride Flag during the month of June 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact to this action.

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives to consider:

1. Adopt a resolution to authorize the flying of the Pride flag at City Hall during the month of June 2024; or

2. Provide staff with alternative direction.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
The agenda was posted in accordance with the Brown Act.

Agenda Item No. 6

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council DATE: May 28, 2024 FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Greg Ray, Public Works Director/City Engineer Gabriel Munoz-Morris, Senior Engineer
Erin Wiggin, CIP Manager
SUBJECT: Extension of Public Works Department On-Call Professional Services Lists

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the extension of the current Public Works Department on-call lists for one year per the requirements of the City’s Purchasing Policy.

BACKGROUND
In response to Council direction in 2015 to find ways to expedite project delivery and streamline processes, the Public Works Department created an on-call list for construction management services. That on-call list was for a term of three years and was successful in streamlining the process by which the City contracted out construction management and inspection services for critical City projects. Due to the success of the construction management on-call list, Public Works staff also issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for professional design services to also streamline design processes and save the City money for consulted design efforts. The RFQ for professional design services sought to create three on-call lists for professional design services:
one for water, wastewater, and stormwater design, one for streets and roadway design, and one for park and landscaping design. Each firm was vetted prior to selection for inclusion in the City’s on-call list to ensure a high level of qualifications, appropriate staffing levels to meet the City’s needs, and a track record of successful project delivery for similar agencies.

On May 24, 2021, Council approved the updated list of qualified consultants for construction management and geotechnical services, and on June 14, 2021, Council approved the list of qualified consultants for water, wastewater, and stormwater design, streets and roadway design, and parks and landscaping design services. The firms included in each of those approved on-call lists are the same as Attachment 1 with the addition of GHD on the Construction Management on-call list.

Over the last three years, Public Works has utilized the established on-call lists to expedite project delivery and reduce project costs by eliminating the need to issue a formal Requests for Proposals (RFP) for each project’s design and construction management phases. Staff estimates that the current practice of contracting professional services for typical City projects reduces the time to deliver projects by up to eight weeks per project. On-call consultants have designed and managed construction for waterline upgrade projects, sewer extension projects, Measure K-14 paving projects, and major roadway rehabilitation projects, including the City’s West Grand Avenue Streetscapes project, which is currently in construction. To date, all consultants selected from the lists have provided services that met staff’s expectations.

Staff Report: Extension of Public Works On-Call Lists Page 2 May 28, 2024
Per the requirements of Section 1.3 of the City’s adopted Purchasing Policy, on-call lists must be approved by Council at least every three years. The current on-call lists were set up for one threeyear term (ending in May/June 2024) with two optional one-year extensions (through May 2025 and May 2026). Staff is recommending the first optional one-year extension to May 2025 with one modification as GHD has indicated that due to recent staff attrition, they do not expect to be able to offer construction management services during the next year. GHD are thus excluded from the recommended construction management on-call list for the next year but remain as a recommended firm for street and roadway design. Staff will return to Council in spring 2025 with a recommendation to either pursue a new RFQ or extend the on-call lists for an additional year.

Staff would note that on-call lists are used for typical City projects, but the City retains the right to advertise individual RFP for unique or exceedingly complex projects.

If the on-call lists are not extended, they would terminate on June 14, 2024 and the City would have to advertise new RFQs for all on-call categories and evaluate them to develop new on-call lists for Council adoption. Staff estimates that process could take up to 12 weeks to complete during which time the City would either not be able to contract for design, construction management, and geotechnical services without advertising individual RFPs for each effort.

FISCAL IMPACT
This recommended action has no fiscal impact. The extension of the on-call lists themselves does not obligate the City to enter into any agreement with any firm on the lists.

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives to consider:

1. Approve the extension of the current Public Works Department on-call lists for one year per the requirements of the City’s Purchasing Policy; or

2. Do not approve the extension and direct staff to immediately issue a Request for Qualifications to establish new on-call lists; or,

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council DATE: May 28, 2024 FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Greg Ray, Public Works Director/City Engineer Gabriel Munoz-Morris, Senior Engineer
SUBJECT: Adoption of Federal Emergency Management Agency Flood Insurance Study Report and Flood Insurance Rate Maps

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution adopting the current effective Flood Insurance Study report and Flood Insurance Rate Maps prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

BACKGROUND
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) prepares and distributes a Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report and Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) which detail areas subject to flooding. These documents are used as the basis for flood plain ordinances and flood insurance programs within local jurisdictions.

On September 28, 2021, FEMA presented communities in San Luis Obispo County with preliminary copies of the updated FIS report and FIRM for the entire county. The FIS report described the flood hazard information updates made to the FIRM and the sources of information used in making the updates. FEMA initiated a statutory 90-day appeal period, which is required in certain communities when FEMA adds or modifies Base (1-percent-annual-chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs), base flood depths, Special Hazard Flood Areas (SFHA), flood zone designations, or regulatory floodways within a community, as shown on the preliminary FIRM.

The 90-day appeal period was not required in Grover Beach as no modifications to the FIRM were made that warranted the review period. After the appeal period for San Luis Obispo County was completed and FEMA addressed all comments/appeals, FEMA prepared the final FIRM and FIS report for the county which will now be effective for Grover Beach on June 6, 2024.

The City is now required under the standards specified in 44 CFR Part 60.3 (d) and (e) of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) to adopt the current FIS report and FIRM. Attachment 2 includes the full countywide FIS report and Attachment 3 shows the FIRM maps for Grover Beach though the FIS report and FIRM do not create or show any new impacts to properties within Grover Beach. Section 5.10.030 (B) of the City of Grover Beach Development Code titled “Basis for establishing the areas of special flood hazards” states that “The areas of special flood hazard identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in the “Flood Insurance Study (FIS) for San Luis Obispo County, California and Incorporated Areas” dated August 28, 2008, with accompanying Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM’s) and Flood Boundary and Floodway Maps (FBFM’s), dated August 28, 2008, and all subsequent amendments and/or revisions, are hereby adopted by reference and declared to be part of this Section.” Through the recommended adoption of the updated FIS report and FIRM, the City will adopt the revision to the August 28, Staff Report: Federal Emergency Management Agency FIS and FIRM Adoption Page 2 May 28, 2024
2008 maps as a basis for establishing requirements of Section 5.10 of the Development Code for Flood Hazard Area Use Control.

FISCAL IMPACT
This recommended action has no fiscal impact.

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives to consider:

1. Adopt a Resolution adopting the current effective Flood Insurance Study report and Flood Insurance Rate Maps prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency; or,

2. Provide alternative direction to staff.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
The agenda was posted in accordance with the Brown Act.

1.4 Considerations for using this Flood Insurance Study Report The NFIP encourages State and local governments to implement sound floodplain management programs. To assist in this endeavor, each FIS Report provides floodplain data, which may include a combination of the following: 10-, 4-, 2-, 1-, and 0.2-percent annual chance flood elevations (the 1-percent-annual-chance flood elevation is also referred to as the Base Flood Elevation (BFE)); delineations of the 1-percent-annual-chance and 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplains; and 1-percent-annual-chance floodway. This information is presented on the FIRM and/or in many components of the FIS Report, including Flood Profiles, Floodway Data tables, Summary of Non-Coastal Stillwater Elevations tables, and Coastal Transect Parameters tables (not all components may be provided for a specific FIS).

This section presents important considerations for using the information contained in this FIS Report and the FIRM, including changes in format and content. Figures 1, 2, and 3 present information that applies to using the FIRM with the FIS Report.

Part or all of this FIS Report may be revised and republished at any time. In addition, part of this FIS Report may be revised by a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), which does not involve republication or redistribution of the FIS Report.

Refer to Section 6.5 of this FIS Report for information about the process to revise the FIS Report and/or FIRM.

It is, therefore, the responsibility of the user to consult with community officials by contacting the community repository to obtain the most current FIS Report components. Communities participating in the NFIP have established repositories of flood hazard data for floodplain management and flood insurance purposes.

Community map repository addresses are provided in Table 30, “Map Repositories,” within this FIS Report.

New FIS Reports are frequently developed for multiple communities, such as entire counties. A countywide FIS Report incorporates previous FIS Reports for individual communities and the unincorporated area of the county (if not jurisdictional) into a https://levees.sec.usace.army.mil/

5.3 Coastal Analyses
For the areas of San Luis Obispo County that are impacted by coastal flooding processes, coastal flood hazard analyses were performed to provide estimates of coastal BFEs.

Coastal BFEs reflect the increase in water levels during a flood event due to extreme tides and storm surge as well as overland wave effects.

The following subsections provide summaries of how each coastal process was considered for this FIS Report. Greater detail (including assumptions, analysis, and results) is available in the archived project documentation. Table 14 summarizes the methods and/or models used for the coastal analyses. Refer to Section 2.5.1 for descriptions of the terms used in this section.

5.3.1 Total Stillwater Elevations
The total stillwater elevations (stillwater including storm surge plus wave setup) for the 1- percent-annual-chance flood were determined for areas subject to coastal flooding. The models and methods that were used to determine storm surge and wave setup are listed in Table 14. The stillwater elevation that was used for each transect in coastal analyses is shown in Table 16, “Coastal Transect Parameters.” Figure 8 shows the total stillwater elevations for the 1-percent-annual-chance flood that was determined for this coastal analysis.
100
Figure 8: 1% Annual Chance Total Stillwater Elevations for Coastal Areas Astronomical Tide
Astronomical tidal statistics were generated directly from local tidal constituents by sampling the predicted tide at random times throughout the tidal epoch.

Storm Surge Statistics
Storm surge is modeled based on characteristics of actual storms responsible for significant coastal flooding. The characteristics of these storms are typically determined by statistical study of the regional historical record of storms or by statistical study of tidal gages.

When historic records are used to calculate storm surge, characteristics such as the strength, size, track, etc., of storms are identified by site. Storm data was used in conjunction with numerical hydrodynamic models to determine the corresponding storm surge levels. An extreme value analysis was performed on the storm surge modeling results to determine a stillwater elevation for the 1-percent-annual-chance event. 101
Tidal gages can be used instead of historic records of storms when the available tidal gage record for the area represents both the astronomical tide component and the storm surge component. Table 15 provides the gage name, managing agency, gage type, gage identifier, start date, end date, and statistical methodology applied to each gage used to determine the stillwater elevations. For areas between gages, peak stillwater elevations for selected recurrence intervals were estimated by combining interpolation between gages and observed high water marks during major storms. A regionalized statistical approach was applied to the gage data so that stillwater elevations in areas between gages could be identified.

Wave Setup Analysis
Wave setup was computed during the storm surge modeling through the methods and models listed in Table 14 and included in the frequency analysis for the determination of the total stillwater elevations.

5.3.2 Waves
An integral component of the transect-based TWL analysis is an accurate determination of the offshore and nearshore wave climate. A continuous 50- year hourly deep-water wave hindcast was developed by Oceanweather Inc using reanalysis of historical wind fields. Three nested model grid components of sequentially higher resolution were used to resolve wave conditions of varying spatial scales, including basin (global), regional (Northeast Pacific Ocean), and coastal (California) grids.

The deep-water dataset was further transformed to reflect nearshore conditions at the edge of the surf zone in approximately 33-49 feet water depth. The nearshore wave transformation component was carried out by the Scripps Institute of Oceanography (SIO) Coastal Data Information Program (CDIP) research group in collaboration with BakerAECOM using the SIO SHELF model. The output from this wave transformation model provides the input conditions for the 1-D transect-based coastal hazard analysis used to calculate BFEs.

5.3.3 Coastal Erosion
A single storm episode can cause extensive erosion in coastal areas. Storm-induced erosion was evaluated to determine the modification to existing topography that is expected to be associated with flooding events. Erosion was evaluated using the methods listed in Table 14. The post-event eroded profile was used for the subsequent transect-based onshore wave hazard analyses.

5.3.4 Wave Hazard Analyses
Overland wave hazards were evaluated to determine the combined effects of ground elevation, vegetation, and physical features on overland wave propagation and wave runup. These analyses were performed at representative transects along all shorelines for which waves were expected to be present during the floods of the selected recurrence intervals. The results of these analyses were used to determine elevations for the 1- percent-annual-chance flood.

Transect locations were chosen with consideration given to the physical land characteristics as well as development type and density so that they would closely represent conditions in their locality. Additional consideration was given to changes in the total stillwater elevation. Transects were spaced close together in areas of complex topography and dense development or where total stillwater elevations varied. In areas having more uniform characteristics, transects were spaced at larger intervals. Transects shown in Figure 9, “Transect Location Map,” are also depicted on the FIRM. Table 16 provides the location, stillwater elevations, and starting wave conditions for each transect evaluated for overland wave hazards. In this table, “starting” indicates the parameter value at the beginning of the transect.

Wave Height Analysis
Wave height analyses were performed to determine wave heights and corresponding wave crest elevations for the areas inundated by coastal flooding and subject to overland wave propagation hazards. Refer to Figure 6 for a schematic of a coastal transect evaluated for overland wave propagation hazards.

Wave heights and wave crest elevations were modeled using the methods and models listed in Table 14, “Summary of Coastal Analyses”. For the 0.2-percent-annual-chance event, wave profiles were created to indicate the results of the wave height analysis at each transect. Such wave profiles may show greater detail than the mapping product, due to limitations of the map scale and smoothing tolerances applied during boundary cleanup. Wave runup analysis for the 0.2-percent-annual-chance event was not performed for this study and is not included in the profiles.

Wave Runup Analysis
Wave runup analyses were performed to determine the height and extent of runup beyond the limit of stillwater inundation for the 1-percent-annual-chance flood. Wave runup elevations were modeled using the methods and models listed in Table 14. 103 Table 16: Coastal Transect Parameters Transect X,Y Coordinates (Meters, NAD83 UTM Zone 11N) Total Water Level

SECTION 6.0 – MAPPING METHODS

6.1 Vertical and Horizontal Control
All FIS Reports and FIRMs are referenced to a specific vertical datum. The vertical datum provides a starting point against which flood, ground, and structure elevations can be referenced and compared. Until recently, the standard vertical datum used for newly created or revised FIS Reports and FIRMs was the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29). With the completion of the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88), many FIS Reports and FIRMs are now prepared using NAVD88 as the referenced vertical datum.

Flood elevations shown in this FIS Report and on the FIRMs are referenced to NAVD88, with the exception of 10 panels: 06079C1619F, 06079C1638F, 06079C1639F, 06079C1880F, 06079C1885F, 06079C1902F, 06079C1905F, 06079C1906F, 06079C1910F and 06079C1950F. These panels were not updated with the November 16, 2012 revision and are referenced to NGVD 29. Flooding sources on the non-updated FIRMS include Nipomo Creek and Santa Maria River. Profile 43P is a duplicate of profile 40P provided in NGVD 29 for use only with effective panels 06079C1639F, 06079C1902F, and 06079C1906F. Due to the fact that base flood elevations along Nipomo Creek are depicted on panel 06079C1643G in NAVD 88 and on panels 06079C1639F, 06079C1902F, and 06079C1906F in NGVD 29, differences in base flood elevations may result across panel edges.

These flood elevations must be compared to structure and ground elevations referenced to the same vertical datum. For information regarding conversion between NGVD29 and NAVD88 or other datum conversion, visit the National Geodetic Survey website at www.ngs.noaa.gov. Temporary vertical monuments are often established during the preparation of a flood hazard analysis for the purpose of establishing local vertical control. Although these monuments are not shown on the FIRM, they may be found in the archived project documentation associated with the FIS Report and the FIRMs for this community.

Interested individuals may contact FEMA to access these data.

To obtain current elevation, description, and/or location information for benchmarks in the 117
area, please visit the NGS website at www.ngs.noaa.gov. The datum conversion locations and values that were calculated for San Luis Obispo County are provided in Table 19.

Table 19: Countywide Vertical Datum Conversion
[Not Applicable to this Flood Risk Project]
A countywide conversion factor could not be generated for San Luis Obispo County because the maximum variance from average exceeds 0.25 feet. Calculations for the vertical offsets on a stream by stream basis are depicted in Table 20.

6.2 Base Map
The FIRMs and FIS Report for this project have been produced in a digital format. The flood hazard information was converted to a Geographic Information System (GIS) format that meets FEMA’s FIRM Database specifications and geographic information standards.

This information is provided in a digital format so that it can be incorporated into a local GIS and be accessed more easily by the community. The FIRM Database includes most of the tabular information contained in the FIS Report in such a way that the data can be associated with pertinent spatial features. For example, the information contained in the Floodway Data table and Flood Profiles can be linked to the cross sections that are shown on the FIRMs. Additional information about the FIRM Database and its contents can be found in FEMA’s Guidelines and Standards for Flood Risk Analysis and Mapping, www.fema.gov/media-library/resources-documents/collections/361. Base map information shown on the FIRM was derived from the sources described in Table 21.

6.3 Floodplain and Floodway Delineation
The FIRM shows tints, screens, and symbols to indicate floodplains and floodways as well as the locations of selected cross sections used in the hydraulic analyses and floodway computations.

For riverine flooding sources, the mapped floodplain boundaries shown on the FIRM have 120
been delineated using the flood elevations determined at each cross section; between cross sections, the boundaries were interpolated using the topographic elevation data described in Table 22. For each coastal flooding source studied as part of this FIS Report, the mapped floodplain boundaries on the FIRM have been delineated using the flood and wave elevations determined at each transect; between transects, boundaries were delineated using land use and land cover data, the topographic elevation data described in Table 22, and knowledge of coastal flood processes. In ponding areas, flood elevations were determined at each junction of the model; between junctions, boundaries were interpolated using the topographic elevation data described in Table 22.

In cases where the 1-percent and 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundaries are close together, only the 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundary has been shown.

Small areas within the floodplain boundaries may lie above the flood elevations but cannot be shown due to limitations of the map scale and/or lack of detailed topographic data.

The floodway widths presented in this FIS Report and on the FIRM were computed for certain stream segments on the basis of equal conveyance reduction from each side of the floodplain. Floodway widths were computed at cross sections. Between cross sections, the floodway boundaries were interpolated. Table 2 indicates the flooding sources for which floodways have been determined. The results of the floodway computations for those flooding sources have been tabulated for selected cross sections and are shown in Table 23, “Floodway Data.”
Certain flooding sources may have been studied that do not have published BFEs on the FIRMs, or for which there is a need to report the 1-percent-annual-chance flood elevations at selected cross sections because a published Flood Profile does not exist in this FIS Report. These streams may have also been studied using methods to determine nonencroachment zones rather than floodways. For these flooding sources, the 1-percentannual-chance floodplain boundaries have been delineated using the flood elevations determined at each cross section; between cross sections, the boundaries were interpolated using the topographic elevation data described in Table 22. All topographic data used for modeling or mapping has been converted as necessary to NAVD88. The 1- percent-annual-chance elevations for selected cross sections along these flooding sources, along with their non-encroachment widths, if calculated, are shown in Table 23, “Flood Hazard and Non-Encroachment Data for Selected Streams.” Table 22: Summary of Topographic Elevation Data used in Mapping Community

BFEs shown at cross sections on the FIRM represent the 1-percent-annual-chance water surface elevations shown on the Flood Profiles and in the Floodway Data tables in the FIS Report. Rounded whole-foot elevations may be shown on the FIRM in coastal areas, areas of ponding, and other areas with static base flood elevations. 122 Table 23: Floodway Data LOCATION FLOODWAY 1% ANNUAL CHANCE FLOOD WATER SURFACE ELEVATION (FEET NAVD88) CROSS SECTION DISTANCE1 WIDTH (FEET) SECTION AREA (SQ.

6.4 Coastal Flood Hazard Mapping
Flood insurance zones and BFEs including the wave effects were identified on each transect based on the results from the onshore wave hazard analyses. Between transects, elevations were interpolated using topographic maps, land-use and land-cover data, and knowledge of coastal flood processes to determine the aerial extent of flooding. Sources for topographic data are shown in Table 22.

Zone VE is subdivided into elevation zones and BFEs are provided on the FIRM.

The limit of Zone VE shown on the FIRM is defined as the farthest inland extent of any of these criteria (determined for the 1-percent-annual-chance flood condition):

The primary frontal dune zone is defined in 44 CFR Section 59.1 of the NFIP regulations. The primary frontal dune represents a continuous or nearly continuous mound or ridge of sand with relatively steep seaward and landward slopes that occur immediately landward and adjacent to the beach. The primary frontal dune zone is subject to erosion and overtopping from high tides and waves during major coastal storms. The inland limit of the primary frontal dune zone occurs at the point where there is a distinct change from a relatively steep slope to a relatively mild slope.

The wave runup zone occurs where the (eroded) ground profile is 3.0 feet or more below the 2-percent wave runup elevation.

The wave overtopping splash zone is the area landward of the crest of an overtopped barrier, in cases where the potential 2-percent wave runup exceeds the barrier crest elevation by 3.0 feet or more.

The breaking wave height zone occurs where 3-foot or greater wave heights could occur (this is the area where the wave crest profile is 2.1 feet or more above the total stillwater elevation).

The high-velocity flow zone is landward of the overtopping splash zone (or area on a sloping beach or other shore type), where the product of depth of flow times the flow velocity squared (hv2
) is greater than or equal to 200 ft 3/sec2. This zone may only be used on the Pacific Coast.

The SFHA boundary indicates the limit of SFHAs shown on the FIRM as either “V” zones or “A” zones.

Table 25 indicates the coastal analyses used for floodplain mapping and the criteria used to determine the inland limit of the open-coast Zone VE and the SFHA boundary at each transect.

6.5 FIRM Revisions
This FIS Report and the FIRM are based on the most up-to-date information available to FEMA at the time of its publication; however, flood hazard conditions change over time.

Communities or private parties may request flood map revisions at any time. Certain types of requests require submission of supporting data. FEMA may also initiate a revision.

Revisions may take several forms, including Letters of Map Amendment (LOMAs), Letters of Map Revision Based on Fill (LOMR-Fs), Letters of Map Revision (LOMRs) (referred to collectively as Letters of Map Change (LOMCs)), Physical Map Revisions (PMRs), and FEMA-contracted restudies. These types of revisions are further described below. Some 162
of these types of revisions do not result in the republishing of the FIS Report. To assure that any user is aware of all revisions, it is advisable to contact the community repository of flood-hazard data (shown in Table 30, “Map Repositories”).

6.5.1 Letters of Map Amendment
A LOMA is an official revision by letter to an effective NFIP map. A LOMA results from an administrative process that involves the review of scientific or technical data submitted by the owner or lessee of property who believes the property has incorrectly been included in a designated SFHA. A LOMA amends the currently effective FEMA map and establishes that a specific property is not located in a SFHA. A LOMA cannot be issued for properties located on the PFD (primary frontal dune).

To obtain an application for a LOMA, visit www.fema.gov/letter-map-amendment-loma and download the form “MT-1 Application Forms and Instructions for Conditional and Final Letters of Map Amendment and Letters of Map Revision Based on Fill”. Visit the “Flood Map-Related Fees” section to determine the cost, if any, of applying for a LOMA.

FEMA offers a tutorial on how to apply for a LOMA. The LOMA Tutorial Series can be accessed at www.fema.gov/online-tutorials. For more information about how to apply for a LOMA, call the FEMA Map Information eXchange; toll free, at 1-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627).

6.5.2 Letters of Map Revision Based on Fill
A LOMR-F is an official revision by letter to an effective NFIP map. A LOMR-F states FEMA’s determination concerning whether a structure or parcel has been elevated on fill above the base flood elevation and is, therefore, excluded from the SFHA.

Information about obtaining an application for a LOMR-F can be obtained in the same manner as that for a LOMA, by visiting www.fema.gov/letter-map-amendment-loma for the “MT-1 Application Forms and Instructions for Conditional and Final Letters of Map Amendment and Letters of Map Revision Based on Fill” or by calling the FEMA Map Information eXchange, toll free, at 1-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627). Fees for applying for a LOMR-F, if any, are listed in the “Flood Map-Related Fees” section.

A tutorial for LOMR-F is available at www.fema.gov/online-tutorials. 6.5.3 Letters of Map Revision A LOMR is an official revision to the currently effective FEMA map. It is used to change flood zones, floodplain and floodway delineations, flood elevations and planimetric features. All requests for LOMRs should be made to FEMA through the chief executive officer of the community, since it is the community that must adopt any changes and revisions to the map. If the request for a LOMR is not submitted through the chief executive officer of the community, evidence must be submitted that the community has been notified of the request.

To obtain an application for a LOMR, visit www.fema.gov/media-library/assets/ documents/1343 and download the form “MT-2 Application Forms and Instructions for Conditional Letters of Map Revision and Letters of Map Revision”. Visit the “Flood MapRelated Fees” section to determine the cost of applying for a LOMR. For more information 163
about how to apply for a LOMR, call the FEMA Map Information eXchange; toll free, at 1- 877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627) to speak to a Map Specialist.

Previously issued mappable LOMCs (including LOMRs) that have been incorporated into the San Luis Obispo County FIRM are listed in Table 26. Please note that this table only includes LOMCs that have been issued on the FIRM panels updated by this map revision.

For all other areas within this county, users should be aware that revisions to the FIS Report made by prior LOMRs may not be reflected herein and users will need to continue to use the previously issued LOMRs to obtain the most current data.

1 Although a portion of LOMR 22-09-1729P falls within the scope of this map revision, panel 06079C1364G was not revised. Therefore, users must continue to refer to the annotated FIRM attachment for this LOMR for FIRM panel 06079C1364G.

6.5.4 Physical Map Revisions
A Physical Map Revisions (PMR) is an official republication of a community’s NFIP map to effect changes to base flood elevations, floodplain boundary delineations, regulatory floodways and planimetric features. These changes typically occur as a result of structural works or improvements, annexations resulting in additional flood hazard areas or correction to base flood elevations or SFHAs.

The community’s chief executive officer must submit scientific and technical data to FEMA to support the request for a PMR. The data will be analyzed and the map will be revised if warranted. The community is provided with copies of the revised information and is afforded a review period. When the base flood elevations are changed, a 90-day appeal period is provided. A 6-month adoption period for formal approval of the revised map(s) is also provided.

For more information about the PMR process, please visit www.fema.gov and visit the “Flood Map Revision Processes” section.

6.5.5 Contracted Restudies
The NFIP provides for a periodic review and restudy of flood hazards within a given community. FEMA accomplishes this through a national watershed-based mapping needs assessment strategy, known as the Coordinated Needs Management Strategy (CNMS).

The CNMS is used by FEMA to assign priorities and allocate funding for new flood hazard analyses used to update the FIS Report and FIRM. The goal of CNMS is to define the validity of the engineering study data within a mapped inventory. The CNMS is used to track the assessment process, document engineering gaps and their resolution, and aid in prioritization for using flood risk as a key factor for areas identified for flood map updates.

Visit www.fema.gov to learn more about the CNMS or contact the FEMA Regional Office listed in Section 8 of this FIS Report.

6.5.6 Community Map History
The current FIRM presents flooding information for the entire geographic area of San Luis Obispo County. Previously, separate FIRMs, Flood Hazard Boundary Maps (FHBMs) and/or Flood Boundary and Floodway Maps (FBFMs) may have been prepared for the incorporated communities and the unincorporated areas in the county that had identified SFHAs. Current and historical data relating to the maps prepared for the project area are presented in Table 27, “Community Map History.” A description of each of the column headings and the source of the date is also listed below.

Community Name includes communities falling within the geographic area shown on the FIRM, including those that fall on the boundary line, nonparticipating communities, and communities with maps that have been rescinded. Communities with No Special Flood Hazards are indicated by a footnote. If all maps (FHBM, FBFM, and FIRM) were rescinded for a community, it is not listed in this table unless SFHAs have been identified in this community.

Initial Identification Date (First NFIP Map Published) is the date of the first NFIP map that identified flood hazards in the community. If the FHBM has been converted to a FIRM, the initial FHBM date is shown. If the community has never been mapped, the upcoming effective date or “pending” (for Preliminary FIS Reports) is shown. If the community is listed in Table 27 but not identified on the map, the community is treated as if it were unmapped.

Initial FHBM Effective Date is the effective date of the first FHBM. This date may be the same date as the Initial NFIP Map Date.

FHBM Revision Date(s) is the date(s) that the FHBM was revised, if applicable.

Initial FIRM Effective Date is the date of the first effective FIRM for the community.

FIRM Revision Date(s) is the date(s) the FIRM was revised, if applicable. This is the revised date that is shown on the FIRM panel, if applicable. As countywide studies are completed or revised, each community listed should have its FIRM dates updated accordingly to reflect the date of the countywide study. Once the FIRMs exist in countywide format, as PMRs of FIRM panels within the county are completed, the FIRM Revision Dates in the table for each community affected by the PMR are updated with the date of the PMR, even if the PMR did not revise all the panels within that community.

The initial effective date for the San Luis Obispo County FIRMs in countywide format was 08/28/2008.

7.2 Community Meetings
The dates of the community meetings held for this Flood Risk Project and previous Flood Risk Projects are shown in Table 29. These meetings may have previously been referred to by a variety of names (Community Coordination Officer (CCO), Scoping, Discovery, etc.), but all meetings represent opportunities for FEMA, community officials, study contractors, and other invited guests to discuss the planning for and results of the project. 177 Table 29: Community Meetings Community FIS Report Dated Date of Meeting Meeting Type Attended By Arroyo Grande, City of 06/06/2024 9/28/2018 Kick Off Meeting Representatives of Arroyo Grande, CA DWR, Caltrans District V, City of Grover Beach, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II, USACE 11/16/2021 Final CCO Representatives of CA DWR, City of Arroyo Grande, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II Atascadero, City of 07/20/1981 04/1978 Initial CCO FEMA, this community and the study contractor 01/26/1981 Final CCO FEMA, this community and the study contractor El Paso De Robles, City of 06/06/2024 9/28/2018 Kick Off Meeting Representatives of Arroyo Grande, CA DWR, Caltrans District V, City of Grover Beach, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II, USACE 11/16/2021 Final CCO Representatives of CA DWR, City of Arroyo Grande, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II Grover Beach, City of 06/06/2024 9/28/2018 Kick Off Meeting Representatives of Arroyo Grande, CA DWR, Caltrans District V, City of Grover Beach, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II, USACE 11/16/2021 Final CCO Representatives of CA DWR, City of Arroyo Grande, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II Morro Bay, City of 05/16/2017 12/02/2014 FRR Meeting FEMA, City of Grover Beach, City of Morro Bay, City of Pismo Beach, San Luis Obispo County, and BakerAECOM 12/07/2015 Final CCO FEMA, City of Grover Beach, City of Morro Bay, City of Pismo Beach, San Luis Obispo County, and BakerAECOM Table 29: Community Meetings (continued) 178 Community FIS Report Dated Date of Meeting Meeting Type Attended By Pismo Beach, City of 06/06/2024 9/28/2018 Kick Off Meeting Representatives of Arroyo Grande, CA DWR, Caltrans District V, City of Grover Beach, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II, USACE 6/24/2020 Flood Risk Review Representatives of CA DWR, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II 11/16/2021 Final CCO Representatives of CA DWR, City of Arroyo Grande, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II San Luis Obispo, City of 06/06/2024 9/28/2018 Kick Off Meeting Representatives of Arroyo Grande, CA DWR, Caltrans District V, City of Grover Beach, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II, USACE 6/24/2020 Flood Risk Review Representatives of CA DWR, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II 11/16/2021 Final CCO Representatives of CA DWR, City of Arroyo Grande, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II San Luis Obispo County, Unincorporated Areas 06/06/2024 9/28/2018 Kick Off Meeting Representatives of Arroyo Grande, CA DWR, Caltrans District V, City of Grover Beach, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II, USACE 6/24/2020 Flood Risk Review Representatives of CA DWR, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II 11/16/2021 Final CCO Representatives of CA DWR, City of Arroyo Grande, City of Paso Robles, City of Pismo Beach, City of San Luis Obispo, FEMA, San Luis Obispo County, STARR II 179

The National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL) dataset is a compilation of effective FIRM Databases and LOMCs. Together they create a GIS data layer for a State or Territory.

The NFHL is updated as studies become effective and extracts are made available to the public monthly. NFHL data can be viewed or ordered from the website shown in Table 31.

Table 31 contains useful contact information regarding the FIS Report, the FIRM, and other relevant flood hazard and GIS data. In addition, information about the State NFIP Coordinator and GIS Coordinator is shown in this table. At the request of FEMA, each Governor has designated an agency of State or territorial government to coordinate that State's or territory's NFIP activities. These agencies often assist communities in developing and adopting necessary floodplain management measures. State GIS Coordinators are knowledgeable about the availability and location of State and local GIS data in their state.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council DATE: May 28, 2024 FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Megan Martin, Community Development Director Janet Reese, Associate Planner
SUBJECT: Resolution to Authorize Potential Program/Project for Inclusion in the 2023 Non-Entitlement Competitive Component of the Permanent Local Housing Allocation Application

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the application for the Non-Entitlement Competitive Component of the Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PHLA) Program for operating costs for navigation centers.

BACKGROUND
In 2017, the Building Homes and Jobs Act (SB2) established a $75 recording fee statewide on real estate documents with the intent to provide a permanent, on-going source of funding to local governments for housing-related projects and programs that assist in addressing the unmet housing needs of their local communities. The program, administered by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), known as the Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Program, has a formula component and competitive component. The competitive component prioritizes assistance to persons experiencing or at risk of homelessness and investments that increase the supply of housing to households with incomes of 60 percent or less of Area Median Income (AMI).

On March 6, 2024, HCD released the 2023 Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for funds collected in 2022, announcing the availability of approximately $12.5 million. Eligible uses of the competitive component of PLHA funds include the following:

Programs that provide assistance to persons who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness, including operating costs for navigation centers, rapid rehousing, rental assistance, or supportive and case management services
Development of a navigation center
Development or rehabilitation of transitional rental housing Development or rehabilitation of multifamily housing that will be for households with incomes at or below 60 percent of area median income (minimum construction cost of $40,000 per unit)
Eligible applicants are non-entitlement local governments who do not receive funds directly from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), such as the City. Local governments may partner with an organization as a co-applicant. The maximum application amount, including administrative costs, for a program application is $1,000,000, and $5,000,000 Staff Report: Competitive Permanent Local Housing Allocation Funding Application Page 2 May 28, 2024
for a project. Administrative costs to implement the proposed program or project may total up to 5 percent of the grant amount.

In response to the NOFA announcement, 5Cities Homeless Coalition (5CHC) is requesting to partner with the City to apply for $1,000,000 in PLHA program funds to be utilized to assist with services that 5CHC offers to individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness (see Attachment 2). Since 2013, 5CHC has provided rapid rehousing, subsistence/rental payment assistance, supportive and case management services. In December 2022, 5CHC opened its first housing navigation center called Cabins for Change. Navigation centers like Cabins for Change provide housing navigation case management, supportive services, shelter, and assistance in navigating basic life skills to 20-25 individuals who are housed in the 20 on-site cabins. A second navigation center called Balay Ko on Barca will open shortly with 30 cabins and will provide the same services as Cabins for Change. While 5CHC's request indicates the funding would assist for approximately 4 years, the term of HCD’s contract will be 10 years.

Partnering with 5CHC to apply for PLHA funds is consistent with the Housing and Homelessness Major City Goal. While 5CHC will prepare most of the required documents for the application, the Council must authorize the submission of the application and execution of related agreements or documents. Therefore, staff recommends Council adopt the resolution prepared by the State (see Attachment 1).

FISCAL IMPACT
If the application is successfully awarded, the City would retain 5 percent, or $50,000, in funds for the City’s administration of PLHA activities over the 10-year term of the agreement with HCD.

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives to consider:

1. Adopt the Resolution authorizing the application for the Non-Entitlement Competitive Component of the Permanent Local Housing Allocation Program for operating costs for navigation centers; or

2. Do not adopt Resolution authorizing application; or

3. Provide alternative direction to staff.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council DATE: May 28, 2024 FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Larry Kim, Community Services Supervisor
Kristin Eriksson, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Public Hearing and Second Reading, By Title Only, and Adopt an Ordinance to Amend Article II (Administration), Chapter 5 (Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission) of the Grover Beach Municipal Code to Change Regular Meeting Frequency

RECOMMENDATION
Conduct a public hearing and second reading, by title only, and adopt an ordinance to amend Article II (Administration), Chapter 5 (Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission) of the Grover Beach Municipal Code to change regular meeting frequency.

BACKGROUND
The Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission (PRBC) regular meeting schedule is regulated by Article 2, Chapter 5, Section 2505 of the Grover Beach Municipal Code (GBMC), which states: “The Commission shall adopt rules and regulations to govern procedure and shall set a time for regular meetings which will be held at least once a month.” In recent years, nearly half of PRBC regular meetings have been canceled due to a lack of content. The required scheduling and cancelation of these meetings impacts Commissioners’ schedules and staff resources. Reducing the number of regular meetings may also increase future interest in the role of serving as a PRBC Commissioner by reducing the time commitment required. In addition, the City maintains the ability to schedule and hold special meetings if and when necessary.

At the February 15, 2024 PRBC meeting, the PRBC unanimously recommended staff change the required regular meeting frequency to an every other month schedule. The PRBC directed staff to bring an item to the Council to consider a proposed ordinance. Based on the timing of various items that regularly are considered by the PRBC, staff recommends that the PRBC meet on even months, beginning in June.

FISCAL IMPACT
A change in meeting frequency for the PRBC will have no direct fiscal impact.

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives to consider:

1. Conduct a public hearing and second reading, by title only, and adopt an ordinance to amend Article II (Administration), Chapter 5 (Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission) of the Grover Beach Municipal Code to change regular meeting frequency; or

2. Provide alternative direction to staff.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council DATE: May 28, 2024 FROM: Matthew Bronson, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Larry Kim, Community Services Supervisor
Kristin Eriksson, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Parks, Recreation, and Beautification Commission Recommendation on Mentone Basin Park Pickleball Courts

RECOMMENDATION
Approve a recommendation of the Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission (PRBC) to convert the tennis court at Mentone Basin Park into four permanent pickleball courts and allocate funds from General Fund reserves for the conversion.

BACKGROUND
At the February 15, 2022 City Council meeting, the Council approved a pickleball pilot program, installing temporary lines for two pickleball courts on an existing tennis court at Mentone Basin Park to determine public interest in pickleball. The pilot program details can be seen in the staff report for the February 15th meeting (Attachment 1). Since the introduction of this program, pickleball activity has continued to grow in Grover Beach and throughout San Luis Obispo County.

Locally, there have been numerous pickleball courts installed at private clubs, businesses, city parks, and schools.

For the pilot program, the City hired a contractor to paint lines for dual pickleball/tennis use. These lines provided the ability for the court to be used as a single tennis court (white lines) or as two pickleball courts (yellow lines). Staff distributed surveys within the surrounding neighborhood to determine the best times for each sport, respectively. As a result, a schedule for usage for tennis and pickleball activity was created and managed by the respective users.

Since its inception, the pilot program has shown a demand for pickleball in the community. Staff estimates up to 100 players a month playing on the two temporary courts with a dozen active volunteers who maintain and set up the pickleball courts for use as well. Staff have spoken with volunteers who indicated that changing the Mentone Basin Park tennis court to a pickleball-only facility would create even more demand as the pickleball community prefers playing on courts that are striped for pickleball only. This corresponds with the tennis community who also have reported distractions by striping for dual use tennis/pickleball courts and prefer the courts striped for tennis alone. Although dual striping the courts creates opportunities for both sports, it also decreases demand by players for daily use.

Given this demand for pickleball facilities, in February staff reached out to a sports contractor to get an estimate to resurface the tennis court to permanently convert to four pickleball courts. The estimated cost for this conversion is $16,000. If converted, the City would continue to have three Staff Report: Mentone Basin Park Pickleball Court Conversion Page 2 May 28, 2024
tennis courts at two parks including Grover Heights Park and Hero Park and have pickleball courts at Mentone Basin Park.

At the April 18, 2024 PRBC meeting, staff presented the outcomes of the pickleball pilot program and options to permanently convert the existing tennis court to four pickleball courts. A diagram showing the proposed configuration of the new courts can be seen in Attachment 2. After discussion about location, effects on the tennis community, and other environmental considerations, the Commission recommended the conversion of the Mentone Basin Park tennis court to four permanent pickleball courts for Council approval. The PRBC also recommends that the new pickleball courts be equipped with upgraded temporary nets, rather than installing permanent nets, to allow for alternative uses of the courts when they are not being used for pickleball. The details of the PRBC report are available in Attachment 2.

FISCAL IMPACT
The cost associated with converting the existing tennis court at Mentone Basin Park to four permanent pickleball courts as recommended is estimated at $16,000. As there is no dedicated funding for this conversion, staff would recommend the Council approve a budget augmentation in FY 2024-25 using General Fund reserves.

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives to consider:

1. Approve a recommendation of the Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission (PRBC) to convert the tennis court at Mentone Basin Park into four permanent pickleball courts and allocate funds from General Fund reserves for the conversion; or

2. Do not approve the project and keep the existing tennis court as-is for dual use; or

3. Provide alternative direction to staff.

PREPARED BY: Kathy Petker, Parks & Recreation Director
SUBJECT: Pilot Program to Co-locate Four Pickleball Courts at the Mentone Basin Park Tennis Court

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the recommendation of the Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission to start a pilot program to co-locate four pickleball courts at the Mentone Basin Park tennis court.

BACKGROUND:

Pickleball, a combination of tennis, badminton, and ping pong, has seen a significant increase in participation in recent years and was declared the “the fastest growing sport in America” by The Economist. This popularity is due to its ease to play on a smaller court than tennis, ability get a workout for all ages, and fun atmosphere amongst players. The number of places to play pickleball has more than doubled since 2010, and according to USA Pickleball Association there are now nearly 8,000 known public and private locations. The spread of the sport is attributed to its popularity within community centers, PE classes, YMCA facilities, and retirement communities. It should be noted that pickleball, as compared to tennis, is considered a relaxed, fun, boisterous sport where all ages are playing amongst each other.

Within San Luis Obispo County, nearly every jurisdiction has pickleball courts including private gym businesses and public agencies. Due to the smaller dimension requirements of court size (20’ x 44’) for both singles and doubles, installing a co-located or blended tennis/pickleball court includes the ability to offer 1 tennis court along with 1, 2, 3 or 4 pickleball courts. While the maximum number of players playing tennis on one court is four people playing doubles, the maximum number playing pickleball using the same space is 16 playing on four courts which further activates the park space. There are currently no pickleball courts in Grover Beach though the City frequently receives requests from the public to add such courts.

At the January 20, 2022 Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission meeting, the Commission considered a proposal from staff to begin a pilot program to co-locate four pickleball courts at an existing tennis court at either Mentone Basin Park or Hero Park. The Commission ultimately recommended that Council approve such a pilot program at the Mentone Basin Park tennis court as this court is centrally located and would continue to allow full-time tennis play at Grover Heights Park (2 courts) and at Hero Park (1 court). This pilot program would provide staff with an opportunity to gauge the co-located use for consideration of permanent changes. In general, tennis and pickleball hours at the Mentone Basin Park court would be designated for priority hours of each sport respectively on a daily basis.

Attachment 1
Staff Report: Pilot Program to Co-Locate Pickleball Courts at Mentone Basin Park Tennis Court Page 2 February 15, 2022
Staff has subsequently consulted a local sports court company (Tennis Warehouse) and invited their staff to inspect the Mentone Basin tennis court. Staff also consulted with the lead volunteer from the City of Arroyo Grande Pickleball Club (John Rogers) who was a former Recreation Director with the City of Arroyo Grande and City of Grover Beach. Staff also met with a sports court surfacing company to review dimensions and temporary paint line estimates. Furthermore, staff consulted with local agencies to assist with establishing guidelines that would include designated tennis and pickleball play times as well as receiving information on how to implement a selfregulating pickleball club. Club members would essentially assist with setting up nets and providing gear along with locking items in a storage area to be determined with assistance of the Public Works Department.

Below are other highlights of this pilot program for the Council’s consideration:
• The existing center net at the Mentone Basin Park tennis court would stay in place for tennis play and would also be used as a divider between pickleball courts to stop astray balls from rolling into other courts
• There would be minimal line striping with the existing tennis court lines • Co-location and timing of use could limit neighborhood parking impacts during high use play times
• Noise impacts on neighbors would be limited to cheering and the sound of paddles hitting a pickleball-similar to a wiffleball
• Allows for “drop-in” play during designated times based on establishing priority times-for example: Monday, Wednesday and Fridays could be drop-in priority time for Pickleball players and Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday could be drop-in priority time for tennis players.

If players of the respective sport do not show up for play, then the court would be on a firstcome, first-serve basis which is the generally accepted system used on co-located courts • Allows all players to play due to the rotation of play system for ‘winners’ and ‘losers’ so people are rotating consistently without long wait periods • Volunteer recruitment would be necessary for success in operating this co-located court.

Pending Council approval, staff would work to implement this pilot program to have the co-located courts begin this spring. The pilot program would last through this summer after which point staff would report on the results to the Parks, Recreation, and Beautification Commission and ultimately the Council to consider permanent changes.

FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated cost to co-locate the existing tennis court with pickleball courts is $20,000. This would include surface patching and paint color coding of pickleball court overlayed with tennis court lines and respective dimensions; signage, locking storage area, portable rolling nets, leaf blowing equipment, and other needed items such as equipment rental of paddles and pickleballs.

This cost will be absorbed in this year’s operating budget.

ALTERNATIVES
The City Council has the following alternative to consider:

1. Approve the recommendation of the Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission to start a pilot program to co-locate four pickleball courts at the Mentone Basin Park tennis court;

PREPARED BY: Larry Kim, Community Services Supervisor
SUBJECT: Mentone Basin Pickleball Pilot Program Update

RECOMMENDATION
Receive an update on the Pickleball Pilot Program at Mentone Basin Park and provide staff direction on whether to recommend the installation of four (4) permanent pickleball courts in place of one existing single tennis court and, if so, recommend the type of net system to install at the courts to the City Council.

BACKGROUND
At the February 15, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council approved a pickleball pilot program, installing temporary lines for two pickleball courts on an existing tennis court at Mentone Basin Park to determine public interest in pickleball. The details of the pilot program can be seen in the City Council Staff Report (Attachment 1). Since the introduction of this program, pickleball has continued to grow in Grover Beach and throughout San Luis Obispo County. Locally, many parks and facilities have installed or converted courts for pickleball, including private clubs, businesses, city parks and recreation departments, and schools.

For the pilot program at Mentone Basin Park, the City hired a contractor to paint lines for dual pickleball/tennis use. These lines provided the ability for the court to be used as a single tennis court (white lines) or as two pickleball courts (yellow lines). Staff distributed surveys within the surrounding neighborhood to determine the best times for each sport, respectively. As a result, a schedule for usage was created. Furthermore, if the designated sport was not using the court then it was open to the public for any use.

Pilot Program Observations
 Staff initially set up the portable pickleball nets for drop-in play during the designated times.
 Portable nets were vandalized and broken within the first two weeks. Portable nets are now stored in the park storage room adjacent to the courts.  Volunteers and participants check out keys from the Community Services Office to access a park storage room with portable nets and a leaf blower for maintenance. There have been no notable vandalism issues since this change.  Participants provided their own paddles and balls.

This program has shown a demand for pickleball in the community. We estimate no less than 100 players a month playing on these two courts. A dozen active volunteers maintain and setup pickleball courts for use as well. Staff have spoken with a few volunteers and they feel that changing Mentone Basin Court to a pickleball only facility would create even more demand as the Agenda Item No. 4
Attachment 2
Staff Report: Mentone Basin Pickleball Update Page 2
April 18, 2024
pickleball community prefers playing on courts that are striped for pickleball only. This corresponds with the tennis community who also get distracted by dual use tennis/pickball courts and prefer the courts striped for tennis alone. Although dual striping the courts creates opportunities for both sports, it simultaneously decreases demand for serious players for daily use.

With continuing demand for pickleball facilities, in February 2024, staff reached out to a sports contractor to get an estimate to permanently convert the Mentone Basin Park tennis court for fulltime pickleball use only. With the smaller footprint required for pickleball, the Mentone Park tennis court would be replaced entirely by four pickleball courts. If converted, the City would have two parks with tennis courts (Grover Heights and Hero Park) remaining.

Estimates for conversion of the court for pickleball specifically range from $16,000 to $20,000 depending on the type of net system to be installed in the courts. On the lower end, the City would continue to have portable net systems that would be stored and checked out. The more expensive option requires permanently mounting posts and into the ground similar to tennis net systems.

The advantage to keeping portable net systems is the ability for the court to be used for more than pickleball. Indoor soccer and roller skating (not skateboards as they would damage the court surface) are two examples of other uses. Currently, there are no designated areas for roller skating use, and staff have received feedback from the roller skating community looking for an option for safe skating within our parks. Staff have confirmed with the contractor that these other use activities listed should have no damaging impact on the court surface.

Having permanent nets and posts installed will make this facility specific to pickleball only. This is the preferred setup for active players and requires less maintenance and replacement costs over time. Permanent net systems do not need to be checked out to users, freeing up staff time and resources.

FISCAL IMPACT
The costs associated with converting Mentone Park tennis court to a pickleball specific facility is estimated between $16,000 to $20,000. Since there is no funding budgeted for this project in our current 2-year budget cycle, a request for a budget allocation would have to approved by City Council.

ALTERNATIVES
The Commission has the following alternative to consider:

1. Receive an update on the Pickleball Pilot Program at Mentone Basin Park and provide staff direction on whether to recommend the installation of four (4) permanent pickleball courts in place of one existing single tennis court and, if so, recommend the type of net system to install at the courts to the City Council.; or

2. Provide staff direction to continue to use the pilot program’s dual use of the court for pickleball and tennis; or

3. Provide staff direction to convert the pilot program court for use for tennis only; or.

4. Provide alternative direction to staff.

Agenda Item No. 11

RECOMMENDATION
Receive a presentation on proposed amendments to the Grover Beach Municipal Code Article IX, Development Code and provide direction to staff.

BACKGROUND
In November 2020, the City Council (Council) adopted the City’s 2020-2028 Housing Element, which contains goals, policies, and programs that facilitate housing production and demonstrate how the City will accommodate its allocated Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) over the next eight years. Also in 2020, the City was awarded three State grants totaling approximately $250,000 for the purposes of updating the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and Development Code, including Senate Bill 2 (SB 2), Local Early Action Planning (LEAP), and Regional Early Action Planning (REAP) to implement the Housing Element policies and programs.

The grants required that the funding be used for activities that demonstrate a nexus to accelerate housing production through streamline application review procedures. In May 2021, the City Council approved a contract with MIG Consultants to implement related changes to the Development Code which were subsequently approved by Council on June 13, 2022 (June 13, 2022, Council Agenda Report Item No. 4).

City staff are committed to performing an annual review of the Development Code to reflect best practices and identify opportunities for improvements to standards, procedures, and implementation. Since adoption of the updated Development Code, several minor changes, clarifications, and corrections have been identified by staff that may help clarify ambiguities, correct errors and omissions, or adjust language/references to more efficiently implement the policies and programs of the General Plan and maintain compliance with changes to State Law.

Given that the previous Development Code update was completed under budget, approximately $17,000 of funds from the LEAP grant remained available to further implement policies and programs related to housing production. On March 5, 2024, staff engaged with MIG Consultants to utilize these remaining funds to further implement improvements to the Development Code under the following objectives, in accordance with the LEAP grant application:
• Updating local planning processes to accelerate housing production through streamlined review procedures.
• Improving the Accessory Dwelling Unit ordinance consistent with State Law • Fulfilling Council goals by establishing Pro-housing Policies Staff Report: Development Code Amendments Study Session Page 2 May 28, 2024
• Other planning documents or process improvements that demonstrate an increase in housing related planning activities and facilitate streamlined review procedures.

As staff identified opportunities for improvement while implementing the updated Development Code, several new housing legislative initiatives from the State have been adopted that affect housing development review processes and procedures. Generally, these new laws remove and/or reduce barriers and boost incentives for housing construction throughout California. As part of this review of the Development Code, staff is working with MIG to ensure the Development Code is consistent with all new housing legislation initiatives including but not limited to; AB 2011 (Affordable Housing and High Road Jobs Act), SB 6 (Middle Class Housing Act), SB 4 (Affordable Housing on Faith and Higher Education Lands Act), SB 684 (Starter Home Revitalization Act), AB 1287 & SB 713 (Density Bonus Law), as well as several changes to laws pertaining to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs).

Proposed Amendments
Since June 2022, staff have processed over 100 various land use applications. The changes outlined in this report reflect the lessons learned, and improvements to best practices that staff has identified through the implementation of the Development Code. Staff is seeking input and policy guidance from the Council concerning the potential amendments to the Development Code, as well as inviting feedback on any additional changes the Council may want staff to investigate.

The Development Code sections proposed to be updated are organized by chapter and identified by section number with a brief description of the proposed amendment. Staff has identified updates that were the result of compliance with State law, reduction and/or removal of development barriers, or include general clean-up and clarifications to provide consistency throughout the Development Code.

Chapter 2 – Zones and Allowable Land Uses
Updates to this Chapter directly contribute to the implementation of the City’s Housing Element by ensuring alignment with development standards and promoting mixed-use development opportunities. The proposed revisions to this Chapter are minor in nature and intended to provide for clarification and consistency with other chapters of the Development Code. These changes include minor revisions to the Development Code’s Allowable Use Tables, including streamlining opportunities for mixed-use development projects. The changes are summarized below:
a) Section 2.10.040(C) (Allowable or Permitted Use Requirements) – Clarify allowable uses that may be subject to other permit requirements such as Administrative Coastal Development Permits and building permit requirements.
b) Section 2.10.040(F) (Additional Permits) – This section has been removed as further clarification has been provided under subsection C above. c) New Section 2.10.040(F) (Primary and Accessory Uses). This new section is intended to provide clarification for accessory uses that may be associated with a primary use, see new definition for “Accessory or Incidental Uses” under Chapter 9 (Section 9.10.20 – Land Use Definitions).
d) Table 2.2 (Residential Zones Allowable Land Uses and Use Permit Requirements) – The land use classification “Two-Unit Housing Development” has been renamed “Urban Dwelling Units” for consistency with neighboring jurisdictions. A new land use classification has been established to require a Use Permit for minor structures, such as pump stations, public underground water and sewer lines, water wells, material and/or equipment storage Staff Report: Development Code Amendments Study Session Page 3 May 28, 2024
facilities, and similar facilities of public agencies or public utilities “Public Utilities Facilities, Minor”. All other changes are proposed for consistency with land use definitions. e) Table 2.4 (Commercial Zones Allowable Land Uses and Permit Requirements) – Allow “Mixed-Use Project” as an allowed by right use in the Central Business (CB), Central Business Open (CBO), and Neighborhood Commercial (NC) zones to further streamline review procedures and implement a pro-housing policy. A new land use classification has also been added for “Public Utilities Facilities, Minor”. Minor facilities include facilities necessary to support established public utilities involving only minor structures, such as pump stations, switching and relay boxes, water wells, material and/or equipment storage facilities, transmission lines, poles, towers, public underground water and sewer lines, distribution lines, and similar facilities of public agencies or public utilities. All other changes are proposed for consistency with land use definitions. f) Section 2.30.050 (Commercial Zones Design Standards) – Subsection D has been moved to Section 3.10.062 (as further discussed in Chapter 3, below). All other changes are intended to provide for clarification and consistency.
g) Table 2.6 (Industrial Zones Allowable Land Uses and Permit Requirements) – New land use classifications have been added for “Public Utilities Facilities, Minor” (as described under table 2.4 above), and “Public Utilities Facilities, Major”. Major facilities include new public utility facilities, such as substations, generating plants, solid waste collection, transfer stations, materials recovery facilities, solid waste treatment and disposal, water or wastewater treatment plants, and similar facilities of public agencies or public utilities.

All other changes are proposed for consistency with land use definitions. h) Table 2.7 (Industrial Zones Development Standards) – End Note 2 has been removed and merged with Section 2.40.050 to refer to the Modification to Standards as the review process for consideration of flexibility for lot coverage or floor area ratio subject to specific findings. End Note 3 has been renumbered as End Note 2. i) Section 2.40.050 (Industrial Zones Miscellaneous Standards) – This section has been revised to provide clarification and cross reference to other sections of the Development Code. The previous End Note 2 is now addressed through Subsection D requiring a Modification to Standards application.
j) Table 2.8 (Public Facilities Zone Allowable Land Uses and Permit Requirements) – New land use classification has been added for “Public Utilities Facilities, Minor”. All other changes are proposed for consistency with land use definitions. k) Table 2.9 (Parks & Recreation Zone Allowable Land Uses and Permit Requirements) – New land use classifications have been added for “Public Utilities Facilities, Minor”, “Public Utilities Facilities, Major”. All other changes are proposed for consistency with land use definitions.
l) Table 2.10 (Open Space Zone Allowable Land Uses and Permit Requirements) – The land use classification for “Passive Use Facilities” shall now be a permitted use within the Coastal Golf Course (CGC), Coastal Pedestrian Beach (CPB), and Coastal Vehicular Beach (CVB) zones. A definition for Passive Use Facilities has been added in Chapter 9, which was not included with the previous update. Passive Use Facilities are associated with scientific/educational wildlife preserves or undisturbed open space uses and include but not limited to bird-watching blinds, minimal nature paths, public restroom facilities, and other similar uses which are consistent with the Open Space zone. All other changes are proposed for consistency with land use definitions.

Staff Report: Development Code Amendments Study Session Page 4 May 28, 2024
Chapter 3 – Standards for All Development and Land Uses Modifications to this chapter will include clarifying language for development standards that are applicable to existing and new residential development (i.e. fencing, screening, upper story open spaces). This supports livable and attractive neighborhoods, accommodating various housing types and balancing community concerns such as privacy, safety, and aesthetics, which is a goal within the City’s Housing Element. Changes are intended to remove ambiguity, establish objective requirements, and further streamline the review process. The changes are summarized below:
a) Section 3.10.010 (Fences and Walls) – This section has been modified to provide greater clarification between the different fence height requirements and the various fence and wall combination scenarios. The intent of these changes is to provide internal consistency, remove ambiguity, and provide flexibility for property owners where appropriate. b) New Section 3.10.062 (Edge Conditions) – This section was moved from Chapter 2 Section 2.30.050(D) and expanded to be applicable for any non-residential project abutting an existing residential zone. The standards as they currently exist only apply to commercial projects, this change would include industrial and any other non-residential development. This change will address potential aesthetic impacts and preserve privacy for residential uses abutting an existing non-residential zone. c) Section 3.10.065 (Screening) – Subsection A has been moved to the new Edge Conditions section above (Section 3.10.062). Mechanical equipment screening now applies to all new development projects. Clarification has been provided for screening requirements specific to Loading Docks. A new subsection D has been added to address screening requirements for individual trash & recycling containers that are not required to be located within a trash enclosure.
d) Section 3.10.080 (Upper Story/Rooftop Decks and Open Spaces) – Staff has found this section of the code the most difficult to implement for different projects and confusing for design professionals and property owners. As such, staff recommends this section be repealed and replaced with new language to clarify the applicability of the requirements for different types of open spaces. Roof decks, balconies, upper story terraces, and similar types of spaces that are larger than 50 square feet shall require a greater step back from adjacent property lines to address privacy between neighboring properties. All other changes are proposed to help address concerns related to the use of upper story open spaces.

Chapter 4 – Standards for Specific Development and Land Uses Updates to this Chapter are primarily focused on ensuring that the City’s Accessory Dwelling Unit Ordinance is consistent with recent State legislative changes. Other changes are intended to remove ambiguity, clarify objective requirements, for accessory structures. The changes are summarized below:
a) Section 4.10.015 (Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)) – Updates to the ADU Ordinance are required to ensure consistency with recent changes in State legislation that specifically address the development of ADUs and to further pro-housing policies. This section will be reorganized to be inclusive of any Development Code standards that pertain to the development of ADUs or Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs). The changes are intended to improve readability and provide flexibility where appropriate consistent with State law, as well as the City’s goal to streamline the review process.

Staff Report: Development Code Amendments Study Session Page 5 May 28, 2024
b) Section 4.10.015 (Accessory Structures) - Changes are intended to provide clarification for permit requirements associated with accessory structures that are less than 120 square feet.

Chapter 6 – Procedures
This Chapter outlines the permitting process and procedures for all permitting types. Changes to this Chapter are intended to improve the City’s permitting process and procedures to be clear, concise, and efficient, especially for housing development projects consistent with State Law. The changes are summarized below:
a) Section 6.10.020 (Authority for Land Use and Zoning Decisions) – This section has been modified to further describe the review authority of the Director, Planning Commission, and City Council as it relates to the review of land use applications. b) Table 6.1 (Review Authority) – This table has been re-organized to distinguish the designated review authority for the different land use applications. c) Section 6.10.030(A) (Pre-application) – Changes to this section are intended to clarify the applicability and review process for pre-applications.
d) Section 6.10.030(E) (Additional Permits) – This new section has been added to clarify applicability of other permit requirements of the Municipal Code that may be required prior to construction.
e) Section 6.10.050 (Application Review) – Changes to this section are intended to provide greater clarification of the completeness review process for land use applications and further describes the expiration process for inactive applications. f) Section 6.10.070 (Development Evaluation and Staff Reports) – This section has been modified to include clarification that the burden of proof for required findings is the responsibility of an applicant, and that any decision rendered on a project is evaluated on a case-by-case basis and does not establish precedence. g) Section 6.20.020 (Administrative Development Permit) – Changes to this section are intended to clarify the applicability of when an Administrative Development Permit is required. To further streamline review procedures, projects that consist of 10 dwelling units or less are now subject to administrative review, where previously projects with five or more dwellings were subject to Planning Commission review. This section will also include a list of projects that are exempt from an Administrative Development Permit and may be reviewed ministerially, such as small residential projects consisting of four or fewer units. h) Section 6.20.050 (Coastal Development Permits) – This section has been modified to provide greater clarification between Administrative Coastal Development Permits (no public hearing required) and Coastal Development Permits (public hearing required) and to make clear when either entitlement is triggered, while maintaining compliance with the Coastal Act pursuant to Coastal Development Permit process and procedure. i) Section 6.20.070 (Development Permit) – Changes to this section are intended to clarify the applicability of when a Development Permit is required. j) Section 6.20.72 (Modification to Standards) - Changes to this section are intended to clarify the applicability of when a Modification to Standards is required consistent with other sections of the Development Code.
k) Section 6.20.080 (Temporary Use Permits) - Changes to this section establish an Intermittent Use Permit process for qualifying reoccurring events. Other changes to this Staff Report: Development Code Amendments Study Session Page 6 May 28, 2024
section are intended to provide consistency with other sections of the Development Code and the City’s Municipal Code Article III (Public Welfare, Morals & Conduct). l) Section 6.20.090 (Use Permit) – Changes consist of a new subsection to clarify continued compliance with conditions of approval associated with an approved Use Permit. m) Section 6.20.110 (Zoning Clearance) – The changes to this section are intended to provide consistency with other sections of the Development Code as it relates to when Zoning Clearance is required.
n) Section 6.30.040 (Permit to Run with the Land) – Changes to this section are intended to exclude Short-Term Rentals consistent with Section 4.10.185. o) Section 6.20.060 (Time Limits and Extensions) – To streamline the review process, this section has been modified to allow the Director to review and approve the first two time extensions for land use entitlements. The third and final time extension will be reviewed by the Commission. In the event a building permit expires, the associated discretionary land use application shall also expire.
p) Section 6.30.070 (Changes to an Approved Development) – Minor changes have been provided to clarify the applicability of this application type in the Coastal Zone. q) Section 6.40 (Housing Streamlined Review) – This section has been modified to provide greater clarity of qualifying housing development projects that are subject to streamlining procedures pursuant to various State legislative initiatives.

Chapter 8 – Subdivision Regulations
Recent changes to State law require an update to the City’s Subdivision Regulations. On October 11, 2023, the Governor signed into law SB 684, which takes effect after July 1, 2024. The bill amends the Subdivision Map Act to streamline the review process for infill development projects that consist of 10 homes or less located within zones which allow for multi-unit development. The new law mandates a ministerial review process for subdivision applications associated with qualifying infill projects.

Section 8.170 (Urban Lot Subdivisions) has been proposed to address these new requirements under the Subdivision Map Act, that outlines the review requirements for qualifying projects. Table

8.1 (Review Authority) is amended to address the local review process for SB 684 applications.

Chapter 9 – Definitions
The proposed updates to this Chapter are primarily intended to ensure clarity and consistency in terminology related to housing regulations, aiding in the effective implementation of the City’s Housing Element. The current organization of the definitions includes land use classification with general definitions. Staff proposes to separate the land use classifications from general definitions and create a new Section 9.10.025 (Land Use Definitions) to include definitions for all land use classifications identified in Chapter 2. Additional changes have been made to improve clarification and applicability for consistency with other chapters of the Development Code.

Community Engagement
These Development Code amendments, while relatively technical overall, have the potential to affect development opportunities in the community. It is important that the City continue to partner with stakeholders, property owners, and developers to ensure these changes are objective and easy to understand. To facilitate public input on the changes to the Development Code, staff Staff Report: Development Code Amendments Study Session Page 7 May 28, 2024
recommend providing a Public Draft of the changes on the City’s website to receive direct feedback and identify further opportunities for improvements. To engage with the public, staff will provide the following opportunities to facilitate feedback:
• The release of the Public Draft will coincide with an online survey for residents to provide direct feedback on the proposed changes, and to identify any other opportunities for improvements.
• Staff will host a Community Forum while the Public Draft is available to provide community members the opportunity for open discussion, questions, and comments. • The Public Draft, LCP Amendment, and all associated correspondence will be presented at the Planning Commission to allow community members additional opportunity to present any comments or suggestions.
• The Ordinance, LCP Amendment, and Planning Commission recommendation will be presented to the City Council and allow community members an opportunity to provide comments or suggestions.

Coastal Commission and Local Coastal Program Amendment
The Ordinance would amend Chapters 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 9 of the Development Code (Article IX of the Municipal Code). Development Code Section 1.20.060 identifies all chapters and sections that constitute the ordinances for the implementation of the City’s Local Coastal Program (LCP) in compliance with the Coastal Act. Therefore, the proposed amendments to the Development Code requires an LCP Amendment, which must be approved by the Coastal Commission before the Ordinance becomes effective in the Coastal Zone.

Staff has reviewed the proposed LCP Amendment with the policies in Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act and has determined that the Ordinance would have no effect on public access, recreation, environmentally sensitive habitat areas, or other coastal resources. The proposed ordinance would not change the kind, location, intensity, or density of the uses west of Highway 1 because the development standards are unchanged. Staff have provided the administrative draft of the proposed changes to Coastal Commission staff for preliminary review and comments.

Next Steps
After receiving Council direction, staff will initiate community outreach and prepare a Public Draft of the Development Code Amendments that will be reviewed by the Planning Commission for recommendation to the Council. Following the Planning Commission review, staff will return to the Council for consideration and adoption. Proceeding the Council’s action, the changes will need to be routed to Coastal Commission staff for review prior to implementation in the Coastal Zone. The amendments will not become effective in the Coastal Zone until approved by the Coastal Commission. Any adopted changes to the ADU ordinance will also require review by the State’s Housing and Community Development Department.

FISCAL IMPACT
The City received three State grants totaling approximately $250,000 for the purposes of updating the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and Development Code, including Senate Bill 2 (SB 2), Local Early Action Planning (LEAP), and Regional Early Action Planning (REAP). The original project did not utilize the full funding allocation, and $16,999.75 of the LEAP grant remains available to be used for activities that demonstrate a nexus to accelerating housing production through streamlined review procedures. These funds will be used for contractual services with Staff Report: Development Code Amendments Study Session Page 8 May 28, 2024
MIG Consultants to oversee the additional amendments for further implementation of Housing Element Programs, Housing State Law, and streamline review procedures.

ALTERNATIVES
The Council has the following alternatives to consider:

1. Receive a presentation on proposed amendments to the Grover Beach Municipal Code Article IX, Development Code and provide direction to staff; or

2. Provide staff with alternative direction.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION
The agenda was posted in accordance with the Brown Act.
