Chief Cash briefly explained that the Public Safety Intern Program turned into a "Fire" program.
Captains Schmitz and Mack developed the program. It started like the Explorers Program for Guadalupe's youth. This was a 6-month program... what a first-year firefighter has to go through, except the Fire Academy. Chief said, "These young men have a step ahead of those going to the Academy. Then they can come home and serve the community. Certificates of Completion were handed out to Luis Ramos, Jr. and Eric Vera. (Gabe Matsuura, who was not present at the meeting, also was given a Certificate of Completion.) Fire Engineer Jacob Nuno, who was the primary person overseeing this program, was given a Certificate of Appreciation by Chief Cash.
October 25, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 1 of 12 Luis Ramos, Jr. reflected on his time as an intern. He said, "Things were hard. We were introduced to what firefighters to. It was nothing short of amazing...the skills learned...being taught by the Guadalupe firefighters who are all professionals. There were three (3) benefits from this intern program: first was hands-on training; second was going on medical calls and the third was community outreach. Thank you to the City Council and Mayor for this opportunity...to the Chief and all the firefighters, teachers and mentors."
Mayor Julian said, "There was a third intern, Gabe Matsuura." Chief Cash said, "He was the first one...the guinea pig for this program. There's no other program in the County that prepares them like this. Thank you to the Fire Department." The mayor added, "The Fire Department, and Public Safety, in general, are always helpful and ready to participate. Thank you."

PUBLIC HEARING
9. Public hearing to consider a Conditional Use Permit (2022-037-CUP) for Hwy 1 General Auto Repair, an automotive repair shop with associated outdoor vehicle staging area on property in the M-C (Industrial Commercial) zoning district at 333 and 363 Guadalupe Street.
Written Report: Bill Scott, City Planner
Recommendation: That the City Council:
a. Receive a presentation from staff;
b. Conduct a public hearing, including 1) an opportunity for the applicant to present the proposed project, and 2) receive any comments from the public; and c. Adopt Resolution No. 2022-92 approving 2022-037 CUP, including CUP Finding, CEQA Class 32 Exemption and Conditions of Approval.
Mr. Bill Scott presented a brief background on the topic. The project site extends across the rear portion of two adjoining properties at 333 and 363 Guadalupe Street. The applicant moved into an existing garage and started a business without City permits and a City business license. The garage is in the back portion of a larger building identified as the 'Andres Realty Reserve and Creamery Building'. The building is located on the property at 333 Guadalupe Street. A twenty-foot-wide alley abuts the west side of the garage and vehicle storage area. A staging area and customer parking are located at the adjoining property to the north at 363 Guadalupe Street. The backyards of single- family homes are beyond the alley to the west. An outdoor area is used to temporarily place the vehicles in line to be serviced. Mr. Scott then showed aerial photos the specific site as well as the October 25, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 3 of 12 auto repair shop. A rear shot of the shop and general vicinity showed a barbed wire fence with razor wire on top. There are 3-4 bays in the outside area to have cars remain for pick up.
Public hearing opened at 6:24 p.m.
Requests to speak on this item:
Mr. George Alvarez had requested to speak on this item but was not present at the time this item came up.
There is a letter in support of Item #9 which is posted on the City's website.
Mr. Stewart Jenkins spoke saying, "The applicant is Mr. Carrillo he applicant, wants relief on the razor wire. The fence has been low but now wants it higher." Mr. Jenkins continued saying, "On behalf of the owner, we are appealing not to require striking the razor wire. It's there to prevent theft and vandalism. The razor wire is not practically viewed from homes...it's not distracting." Mr.
Jenkins showed the view from backyard and windows of the alley...limited distraction and doesn't affect the residents' views. He said that the razor wire was put up in 1976 when the fence was permitted and can't be seen from Guadalupe Street. He further stated, "Mir. Carrillo, the applicant, was concerned that customers will get cars vandalized. Andres Realty has made significant improvements to the old Golden State Creamery building. We're making progress by making venerable buildings useful again. I request approval of the CUP and that Condition 6., removal of the razor wire be struck."
CM Ramirez asked about plans for safety precautions in the area. Mr. Jenkins said that the area by the fence, where cars are parked to take into the shop, is a blind alley and very dark. The whole idea is to deter people. He said that they will tighten up barbed wire and that the posts are in good shape.
CM Ramirez asked for public safety's opinion on increased traffic, access for emergency vehicles, etc.
Chief Cash said, "From PD's standpoint, the situation hasn't been reviewed yet. I'd want to take a look at security to see if it's sufficient." Mr. Jenkins added that Fire and PD will have access and that improvements are ongoing with safety improvements.
There was more discussion between the Council and Mr. Jenkins relating to the razor wire, other types of fencing, slats, landscaping, etc. Mr. Jenkins said, "This is a blind alley. There's no parking on the alley...no drag racing. A 250 ft. long fence has been used for parking, materials, etc. The razor wire can be made tighter."
Mr. Scott interjected, "We work well with Mr. Jenkins. The fence was approved in 1976, no razor wire. When reading the Municipal Code, no properties have wire or barbed wire. We believe there's a balance. This project is not detrimental to neighbors. There are stringent standards - razor wire should be removed. We should have reviewed the fence but decided not to. Gave a little because of October 25, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 4 of 12 the car repair business. Guadalupe Hardware wants to keep the razor wire. Tenants feel better with the razor wire. We need a longer period of 90 days if we have to remove the razor wire. And we need to hire someone skilled to do tha....labor costs are high." CM Costa said, "Barbed wire is okay but not razor wire. Other mechanic shops don't have fence, razor wire and there's no problem." Mayor Julian asked, "How do you start a business without a business license? That shouldn't have happened but it's being corrected now. The slide showed doesn't have cars but now will be full of cars. Go down 5th Street to 2nd Street, fences have slats. (Mayor asked Chief if there any instances of burglary/theft and the Chief said "No".) The fence is pretty shabby. Also, an ADU going in the back. I wouldn't want to see car repair, oil, cars jacked up. It's visible to the residents. I don't like razor wire...prefer slats. People use that area."
The question of the definitions of long-term and short-term vehicle storage came up. Mr. Scott said, "According to the Municipal Code, CUP for auto repair can have short-term auto repair. Storage - any material stored longer term - stays for months/years." Mayor Julian then said, "My concern is the fence. The razor wire needs to go. I don't even like barbed wire." Mr. Scott said, "The fence doesn't meet the Municipal Code. We tried to be reasonable here...tried to compromise. It's not a permitted use. We tried to be kinder and gentler with business.
There are safety hazards. They've been allowed to stay open since May. We tried to do what was best for the business and neighborhood. The Building Official wanted an architect. We want to support small businesses."
Public hearing closed at 7:00 p.m.
CM Robles said, "I've known Arturo (the applicant). He ran a reputable shop on the Mesa. Good reputation." CM Ramirez reiterated the need for public safety to go out to property and evaluate the fence. He requested that the item be deferred until Public Safety can review for safety measures.
Mr. Jenkins said that the building has been there for decades and that the building is structurally safe.
Mayor Julian cited Municipal Code 1852.122 regarding a fence requirement. He said, "You're trying to work with the Municipal code and the business. I'd like to have Chief look at the barbed wire fence and the razor wire and postpone the item until the next meeting." City Attorney Sinco asked, "What do you want Public Safety to do?" CM Ramirez said, "Make a recommendation. Public nuisance...more than 5% in disrepair, etc." City Attorney said, "Do an overall alley assessment for potential public nuisance."
The discussion then turned to overall alley assessment, potential public nuisance, hazardous waste, etc. The applicant was asked if there have been any attempted break-ins and there haven't been any. Fire Captain Schmitz was present at the meeting and said that there has been no specific business inspection to date.
October 25, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 5 of 12 CM Costa, Jr. then said, "There are things that need to be done in phase....then I'd give an 'ok' for the CUP." Mayor Julian then asked what Council now wanted to do as he felt the need to postpone to the next meeting on November 8th. Motion was made by Council Member Ramirez and seconded by Council Member Costa, Jr. to table the discussion of the public hearing on Resolution No. 2023-92 to the November 8, 2022 City Council meeting. 5-0 Motion passed.
10. Public hearing to consider a Conditional Use Permit (2022-034-CUP), for Central Coast Processing, LLC to allow a cannabis distribution, cultivation-processing, and manufacturing facility at 151 Obispo Street (Assessor's Parcel Number 115-210-024).
Written Report: Bill Scott, City Planner
Recommendation: That the City Council:
a. Receive a presentation from staff;
b. Conduct a public hearing, including 1) an opportunity for the applicant to present the proposed project, and 2) receive any comments from the public; and c. Adopt Resolution No. 2022-93 approving Conditional Use Permit 2022-034-CUP, including CUP Finding, CEQA Class 1 Exemption, and Conditions of Approval.
The applicant, Central Coast Processing, LLC, is requesting the City Council to approve a conditional use permit (CUP) to allow a cannabis distribution, cultivation-processing, and manufacturing operation in an existing building at 151 Obispo Street. This 6.20-acre property is located in the G-l (General Industrial) zoning district. The Municipal Code requires a conditional use permit review and approval for a commercial cannabis business involving the distribution, manufacturing, or processing of cannabis products in the G-l zone.
An aerial site and vicinity shot showed that on the north and west sides of the property is the corporate campus of Taylor Farms, a produce processing and distribution company. On the east side, across Obispo Street, is a residential area. Highway 166 (Main Street) is to the south and Highway 1 is to the west of the property. The facility operations will operate under three licenses as follows: 1) Distribution - move cannabis and cannabis products between cultivation and manufacturing locations; storage; and movement to retail locations; 2) Cultivation-Processing - drying, trimming and bulk bagging, and 3) Manufacturing - use of non-volatile methods to extract concentrates and cannabis packaging for retail sales.
There was discussion on neighborhood compatibility, security, regulatory compliance, odor control and noise abatement. Traffic and circulation were also discussed in some detail. There are currently six (6) driveways on Obispo of which only four (4) will be used. It was pointed out that there will be fewer vehicle trips than the prior company and fewer truck deliveries. Measures to encourage bus and alternative transit methods will be implemented. Also, a truck access route for the neighboring industrial business will be provided. It was stated that the amount of traffic will be negligible on October 25, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 6 of 12 Obispo Street. Sixty (60) parking spaces will be provided. There is an existing fence with barbed wire, no razor wire.
There were 83 conditions of approval cited. Mr. Scott provided a handout on a proposed revision to Condition #42. This proposed revision involved a clarification of language involving a lot line adjustment between the 151 Obispo Street property and the adjoining Taylor Farms Retails Inc.'s property. This project is exempt from CEQA review as it is the re-use and operation of an existing facility (CEQA Section 15301).
Mr. Scott summarized by saying that the project meets both the Municipal Code relating to the cannabis ordinance and the Zoning Ordinance. The operations will comply with all applicable state licensing requirements for operations. The project supports the General Plan objectives to re-use existing and underutilized infill property where City services are already in place.
Ms. Jillian Collins, from Central Coast Processing, LLC, continued with the presentation. She showed a chart of milestones with October 2022 having two (2) milestones, CUP approval and the start of construction. She went into more detail regarding the company's proposed traffic circulation and security plan, odor mitigation, and landscape screening plan. For the security plan, she explained that fencing is state required; there will be outdoor light and a guard shack (incoming/outgoing compliant).
Of the 83 conditions of approval, Ms. Collins spoke about Condition #26 which states, "Project requires a minimum 5-foot sidewalk along the Obispo Street frontage to facilitate use of public transit." She is looking to not have a sidewalk as a condition of approval. There was a brief explanation of their employee plan with local hiring initiatives, proposed floor plan, inventory system tracking and the five (5) core goals of their Community Benefit and Investment Plan.
Mr. Scott Bruce gave a final presentation recapping the intent of the public hearing. He then went into more detail on the cannabis operations from bringing raw product to the loading dock area through to movement of bagged material to distribution areas. He briefly spoke about odor mitigation and their intent to keep as much inside the facility. He cited the Municipal Code section which says that no odor will be smelled on adjacent property or public right-of-way. Regarding security, he mentioned that there will be a full walk-through of the facility prior to occupancy. He reiterated that this project was evaluated by EMC Planning and qualifies for a CEQA Class 1 exemption.
Mr. Bruce gave a summary path to operation with the following: Conditional Use Permit approval; Building Permit; Community Benefit Agreement; Commercial Cannabis Business Permit, and Occupancy/Operations approved. The final approval will be by City staff. He emphasized that action tonight would move the process forward to a building permit.
Public hearing opened at 8:03 p.m. Public hearing closed at 8:04 p.m.
October 25, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 7 of 12 Request to speak. Mr. Stewart Jenkins had requested to speak but was not present at the meeting at this time to do so.
The Council asked general questions about employees, state licensing, inspection of lots, tracking, and storage of product. CM Ramirez asked for input from Shannon Sweeney, Public Works Director.
Mr. Sweeney spoke about the CUP showing striking the bus stop and sidewalk. She explained about the current bus stops on Amber & Obispo Street which has the express route with no shelter as yet and the Obispo & Third Street, near the gas station, which is the Guadalupe local route. There was in-depth discussion about the need for the sidewalk, location of the sidewalk, etc. Mr. Scott said that there is a need to do a survey as there appears to be room for a sidewalk with a 5 ft. width. Mr.
Sean Hecht from the company said that the City would put in the sidewalk 100' from their property to the bus stop. Ms. Collins said to complete the sidewalk when the City does.
Mayor Julian asked how all of this would be done. City Attorney Sinco said to revise Condition #26 with a time period to complete the sidewalk. The wording would show when the City is ready to do the sidewalk 100' from the property, a trigger should be shown to notify the applicants (company).
City Attorney Sinco said the earliest would be to budget in June, time to plan. There would be reasonable notice, like six (6) months.
The discussion then turned to timing, cost and payment. Mr. Hecht suggested that for 500' frontage, the cost could go up to $750,000 which he said was "not a light hurdle and was hesitant for that high cost". City Attorney Sinco said that this could be added to the Community Benefits Plan...bring this issue back a year from now and it wouldn't affect the manufacturer's permit. Ms. Sweeney added, "For 500' or 2,500 sq. ft., the cost would be around $62,500..round up to $100,000." City Attorney Sinco then said, "December 2023, based on the $100,000 estimate." Ms. Collins added, "Get site survey...get some bids. When we come back for Phase II, we'll look at this..January 2024." CM Ramirez said, "Phase I...employees working. Can we have some temporary safety mitigation to employees to take safe route. Maybe a carpool suggestion?" Ms. Julianne Hill from Taylor Farms spoke, "We have 43 years in this community. We're working with new neighbors. There are trees by Hwy 166. A lot line adjustment will be needed. Chief Cash said, "This is the first time seeing the driveway usage. (He referenced a prior slide showing driveway usage showing main entrance and exit driveways and secondary driveways.) The slide also shows Taylor Farms access which is direct from Highway 166 (Main Street) to its receiving area. This usage could be problematic on Obispo Street. Suggestion: make a right turn only coming and not turn left onto Obispo Street. Traffic mitigation on Obispo Street...congestion at intersection." Ms. Taylor said she agreed with Chief's suggestions on traffic.
October 25, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 8 of 12 There was then discussion regarding a requirement to replace the sewer main. Condition #18 was briefly discussed. When Ms. Sweeney said that additional alternatives were already cited in the Conditions of Approval, they seemed satisfied
City Attorney Sinco said, "A minimum 5' sidewalk would be built to City standards along Obispo Street, no later than by June 2024." CM Ramirez added, "Agreeing to 18 months. For a safety plan, loop in public safety to look at schools during the 18 months." Motion was made by Council Member Ramirez and seconded by Council Member Costa, Jr. to approve Resolution No. 2022-93 approving Conditional Use Permit 2022-034-CUP, including CUP Finding, CEQA Class 1 Exemption and Conditions of Approval with revisions to Condition No. 26 to state "Project requires a minimum 5-foot sidewalk built to City specifications along the Obispo Street frontage to facilities use of public transit no later than by June 30, 2024", and to Condition No. 42 as requested by the applicant and distributed to the Council in writing at the meeting.
Roll Call: All Ayes 5-0 Motion passed.
REGULAR BUSINESS
11. New Job Description and Classification of Finance Clerk, regular, part-time position in the Finance Department.
Written report: Amelia M. Villegas, Interim HR Manager
Recommendation: That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2022-94 approving the classification and job description for the regular, part-time Finance Clerk position in the Finance Department and authorizing staff to initiate recruitment.
Ms. Lorena Zarate, Finance Director, gave the background on this item. For the past 10 years, the Finance Department has had two (2) Accounts Clerks providing service to our residents and customers. This includes utility billings, receiving payments, accounts receivables, processing payments for business licenses, accounts payables, etc. Guadalupe's population has increased over these 10 years resulting in an increase in residents requiring services. The number of vendors and consultants have also increased.
Having a part-time Finance Clerk, whose primary responsibility will be handling utility billing payments at the "counter", will allow for the Account Clerks to handle other matters. More importantly, it will allow for a more focused attention on improved customer service. In addition, having this part-time employee will help to increase the "counter" hours of the Finance Department's availability. For this fiscal year, funding for this position would come from Finance's previously allocated ARPA funds and remaining unallocated ARPA funds. For FY 23/24, ongoing costs would need to be funded by the General Fund.
Questions from the Council centered on the need for additional help in Finance, sustainability, increased hours for the "counter", and funding sources. Mr. Bodem said, "I fully support this new October 25, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 9 of 12 part-time position for Finance. Customer service is a City goal. People come to City Hall to pay their bill, but they can't because the "counter" is closed. Customer service is paramount. This new position will help to clear up and alleviate backlog in the future.
On the subject of increased "counter hours", CM Costa, Jr. recommended the part-time employee hours be 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Ms. Zarate responded, "Currently the "counter" is open Monday through Thursday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. We could look at possibly modifying the hours during the heavier times of the month to allow for later hours."
Motion was made by Council Member Costa, Jr. and seconded by Council Member Ramirez to approve Resolution No. 2022-94. 5-0 Motion passed.
12. Transit Update.
Written report: Shannon Sweeney, Public Works Director/City Engineer Recommendation: That the City Council receive the report for information, general discussion, and input.
Ms. Sweeney stated that this item was not time sensitive and requested referring to the November 8, 2022 City Council meeting.
Motion was made by Council Member Costa, Jr. and seconded by Council Member Cardenas to continue Item #12. Transit Update and Item #13. Main Street/Obispo Intersection traffic issues to the November 8, 2022 City Council meeting. 5-0 Motion passed.
13. Main Street/Obispo intersection traffic issues.
Written report: Shannon Sweeney, Public Works Director/City Engineer Recommendation: That the City Council provide direction to staff on next steps for traffic control on Highway 166 (West Main Street) in the vicinity of Obispo Street.
This item is being deferred to the November 8, 2022 City Council meeting, per Ms. Sweeney.
14. FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS
Shannon Sweeney: Items 12 & 13 as stated above for the November 8th meeting.
CM Cardenas: Micro-Enterprise Program - grant applications/grantees. For the Ceremonial Calendar, recognition of individuals who completed the program and received funding for the November 22nd meeting.
October 25, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 10 of 12 CM Costa, Jr.: Review the ordinance on trailers parked on streets and the 72-hour restriction. There are boats, trailers and cars that don't run that are parked on the streets. Chief Cash said, "72 hours is a state vehicle code. There's nothing to say how far a vehicle has to be moved. I've checked with CHP. There's no specific length that has to be moved." City Attorney Sinco said he would present an item showing what the ordinance can and cannot do...then get direction from Council. No specific date given.
Todd Bodem: Boys & Girls MOU for the November 8th meeting.
Mayor Julian: Lompoc Council got a pay increase. We need to look at increasing the stipend. City Attorney Sinco recommended doing that now which would then take effect in December. Mayor added, "We need to look at the budget. Look to change for those coming on board." City Attorney Sinco: With CM Ramirez's resignation, Council needs to decide if a successor will be appointed or a special election - for the November 8" meeting.
15. ANNOUNCEMENTS - COUNCIL ACTIVITY/COMMITTEE REPORTS
CM Ramirez: He tendered his resignation as City Council Member, stating that his last City Council meeting would be November 22, 2022. There are two (2) years left on his term. City Attorney Sinco said that with his resignation date, the City Council has 60 days from November 22, 2022 to appoint a successor or call for a special election.
He attended the Allan Hancock College Board meeting which was held at City Hall here in Guadalupe.
It was well attended, and the technology worked well. He said, "I want to thank Juana Escobar, Administrative Assistant, for all her help with this event." CM Robles: Attended a special ceremony on Saturday, October 22nd, in Morro Bay. This was a rededication commemorating a Spanish galleon that landed in Morro Bay bringing the first Filipinos to this area. Also attending this ceremony was Morro Bay mayor, Mayor Julian and state legislators.
CM Costa, Jr.: This weekend, all four (4) Bulldog teams made the playoffs. Congratulations to the coaches and players. Also, the junior team was undefeated.

Mayor Julian: At SBCAG meeting, it was mentioned that all monies are going to the southland.
SBCAG needs to start paying attention to North County.
CHP has been giving tickets. Special permit is needed to drive a van for Cal Vans. The driver is not counted, which makes it 14, meaning a special license isn't needed to drive a van.
