CITY COUNCIL

STAFF REPORT
Item No. 1. D
Meeting Date: April 19, 2022
Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Department: Public Works Department
Staff Contact: Ed Walton, Contract City Engineer;
[email protected]
Item Title: Accept the McKnight Drive Drainage Project as Complete (Contract No. 2021-12)
Recommended Action: Adopt a resolution (Attachment A) accepting the McKnight Drive Drainage Project as complete (Contract No. 2021-12).

Summary: The City Council awarded the McKnight Drive Drainage Project to PAL General Engineering, Inc. on April 6, 2021 not to exceed a total project budget of $354,000. The project consisted of installation of a storm drain system along Mt. Vernon and McKnight Drive to include a reinforced concrete pipe (RCP), catch basins, clean-outs, inlets, headwalls, and rip rap. Staff completed its final inspection of the improvements and determined that the work was completed per the contract specifications. The total cost of the project was $330,825.34. The unspent balance of $23,174.66 will be returned to the general fund.

Discussion: On April 6, 2021, PAL General Engineering, Inc. was awarded the McKnight Drive Drainage Project (Contract No. 2021-12) with a total construction contract amount of $237,140. The project included an additional $35,000 for inspection services, $23,000 for materials testing and a $58,860 contingency for a total project budget of $354,000.

Three construction change orders were required to complete the project:

1. Removal and replacement of a concrete driveway to accommodate an 18” RCP at a cost of $3,887;

2. Installation of an asphalt dike, spillway and fence at a cost of $26,685; and

3. Added work for a concrete driveway apron and RCP protection at a cost of $9,003.84.

Project as Complete
April 19, 2022

The change orders increased the construction contract amount $39,575.84 for a total construction contract amount of $276,715.84. Inspection services for the project were performed by the City’s contract inspector, Infrastructure Engineering Corporation (IEC).

The project required more staffing time than originally anticipated. More attention to the field crew work was required in order to assure proper construction techniques, public safety measures and limited impacts to the surrounding neighborhood. The total inspection portion of the project equaled $43,634.50. Materials Testing for the project was performed by Atlas Technical Consultants, LLC. The total materials testing portion of the project equaled $10,475. The total final project cost equaled $330,825.34.

Between April and June 2021, staff worked with the contractor to obtain all contract and submittal documents required before construction activity can begin. A Notice to Proceed for the project was issued to the contractor on June 28, 2021. Significant project delays included contractor mobilization and workload, construction crew staffing shortages due to COVID, changes to the design in the field due to unanticipated sewer lines, rain and the scheduling of all final work and inspections.

On January 6, 2022, staff completed the
final inspection of the improvements and
determined the work was completed per the
contract specifications (139 days).

Staff recommends that the City Council
adopt a resolution (Attachment A)
accepting the work as complete, authorize
the City Manager or her designee to file a
Notice of Completion with the County of
San Diego Recorders Office, and authorize
staff to release the retention no sooner than
thirty (30) days after the Notice of
Completion has been filed.

Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Department: Community Development Department
Staff Contact: Bill Chopyk, Interim Community Development Manager; [email protected]
Item Title: Minor Use Permit No. MUP-210-0002 Car Wash Appeal Recommended Action: Adopt a resolution (Attachment B or C) either approving or denying an appeal of the Planning Commission (PC) decision to approve Minor Use Permit MUP-210-0002 to construct and operate a car wash at 7431 Broadway in the General Commercial (GC) zone.

Summary: On December 21, 2021, a Notice of Decision was published that the Community Development Manager (CDM) intends to deny MUP-210-0002. Decisions of the CDM on use permit applications may be appealed under Section 17.28.020 I. of the Lemon Grove Municipal Code (LGMC). Under the powers and duties of the Planning Commission (LGMC 2.36.070), the Planning Commission shall be the initial appeal body for all appealable staff decisions. On January 3, 2022, an appeal of the CDM Decision was filed by the applicant, Neil Capin, Jr. (Applicant).

On February 28, 2022, the PC adopted Resolution No. 2022-001 (Attachment A) granting the Applicant’s appeal of the CDM decision and approving the car wash project.

Pursuant to LGMC 2.36.070, the City Council shall hear appeals from Planning Commission decisions.

On March 8, 2022, an appeal of the PC decision was filed by Katie Dexter (Appellant) stating: “Use is inconsistent with Lemon Grove General Plan and is not compatible with the neighborhood or community. I feel it will injure immediate neighbors. Doesn’t belong on perimeter of residential neighborhood. Also feel decision was made based on undue influence by Councilmember LeBaron and supporters at that meeting.” The Appellant informed staff the she is unable to attend the City Council hearing on the appeal as she is in Wisconsin for a few months. However, she gave her consent to proceed with the public hearing on her appeal without her presence.

Discussion: The property at 7431 Broadway was previously used for retail commercial, including, among other things, taco shops and a music studio. After these retail businesses left, the property became abandoned and neglected. An illegal cannabis dispensary was established for a short period of time where code enforcement action was taken to vacate the dispensary. The property is currently vacant, fenced and in disrepair.

The new owner of the property applied for a Minor Use Permit (MUP) to demolish the existing buildings and construct a new drive-through car wash.

After thorough review of MUP-210-0002, the CDM intended to deny the MUP. However, the applicant appealed the CDM decision. Staff had made the following findings to deny the MUP-210-0002:

1. The use is incompatible with the neighborhood. The land uses surrounding the subject site include residential structures that are accessed from Pacific Ave. and immediately south of the subject site. The closest residential structure is approximately 15 feet from the southerly property line of the proposed car wash site. The proximity of the drive-through to nearby residential structures and the potential for cars to create disturbing, excessive or offensive noise, car exhaust from idling engines, and stacking of vehicles causing congestion will result in the use being incompatible with the surrounding neighborhood and the community.

2. The use is detrimental to the health, safety, convenience or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The proposed car wash will be detrimental to the general welfare of persons residing in nearby residential structures because their close proximity to the car wash and potential noise impacts from cars accessing the site and creating disturbing, excessive or offensive noise, car exhaust from idling engines and stacking of vehicles, causing discomfort or annoyance in accordance with Lemon Grove Municipal Code Section

9.24.160.

3. The use does not comply with performance standards according to Section 17.24.080. The applicant submitted a noise study (Eilar Associates, Inc.

April 28, 2021) confirming the proposed use complies or will be made to comply with applicable performance standards; however, cars utilizing the car wash may generate noise that exceeds the ambient noise level by more than five decibels or exceed 70 decibels during daytime operations. The applicant submitted an updated noise study by Eilar Associates, Inc. dated January 14, 2022 (Attachment B) that MUP-210-0002 Car Wash Appeal
April 19, 2022

includes an analysis of noise generated from stacked idling vehicles. Although the noise study concludes that noise impacts from the proposed on-site equipment and idling vehicles are not expected to exceed City of Lemon Grove property line noise limits at surrounding property lines, staff remains concerned about noise exceeding 50 dB on adjacent residences from the car wash equipment, and stacked cars revving their engines and playing loud music (not addressed in the 1/14/22 Eilar noise study). The car wash is expected to generate 150-200 vehicle trips per day which would not significantly impact the traffic level of service on Broadway.

However, turning movements are limited by one-way in and one-way out due to the raised median on Broadway, and a tight right-hand turn to enter the vehicle stacking area.

4. The use is inconsistent with applicable provisions of the particular zoning district and with policies and standards of the general plan.

Policy 5.5 of the General Plan states. “Promote development that enhances and is compatible with the surrounding environs.” The proposed use will generate disturbing, excessive or offensive noise from cars, fumes from idling engines, and congestion which will result in the use being incompatible with the surrounding residential environs.

Furthermore, staff recommended that the Applicant hold a community meeting to gage the community reaction to a car wash next to a residential neighborhood. The Applicant declined to hold a community meeting.

In support of the Applicant’s appeal to the PC of the CDM’s decision, the Applicant provided a response letter including 3 support letters (2 unsigned) and 34 postcards supporting the proposed car wash (Attachment D). The project site plan, building elevations and landscaping plan are included in Attachment E.

At the February 28, 2022 PC appeal hearing, the PC overturned the CDM decision; granted the applicant’s appeal; approved MUP-210-0002 subject to conditions that (a) anti-graffiti paint shall be applied to the 12-foot high sound wall and (b) additional trees shall be planted in the rear yard between the car wash structure and the adjacent residential uses to the south; and made the following findings in Resolution No. 2022- 001 (Attachment A):

1. The use is compatible with the neighborhood or the community. The car wash is compatible with the land uses surrounding the subject site including commercial uses and structures on Broadway, and residential uses and structures that are accessed from Pacific Avenue south of the subject site.

2. The use is not detrimental to the health, safety, convenience or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The proposed car wash will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons residing in nearby residential MUP-210-0002 Car Wash Appeal
April 19, 2022

structures because the proposed car wash construction and 12-foot tall sound wall will attenuate sound to acceptable noise level standards in accordance with Lemon Grove Municipal Code Chapter 9.24: Noise Abatement and Control.

3. The use complies with performance standards according to Lemon Grove Municipal Code Section 17.24.080 as there are no dangerous or objectionable effects from the proposed car wash activity.

4. The use is consistent with applicable provisions of the particular zoning district and with policies and standards of the general plan. Policy 5.5 of the General Plan states: “Promote development that enhances and is compatible with the surrounding environs.” The proposed car wash design minimizes disturbing, excessive or offensive effects with the surrounding environs.

5. The Minor Use Permit is categorically exempt from the environmental review requirements under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines under Section 15332, Infill Development.

CITY OF LEMON GROVE

CITY COUNCIL

STAFF REPORT
Item No. 3.

Meeting Date: April 19, 2022
Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Department: Community Development Department
Staff Contact: Bill Chopyk, Interim Community Development Manager; [email protected]
Item Title: Public Hearing to Consider Conditional Use Permit Application CUP-200-0001, A Request to Establish a
Medical Marijuana Dispensary Cannabis Retail Store at
8280 Broadway in the Heavy Commercial Zone
Recommended Action:
1) Conduct the public hearing;
2) Receive Public Comment; and
3) Adopt a resolution (Attachment A) conditionally approving Conditional Use Permit CUP-200-0001, to establish a medical marijuana dispensary (MMD) cannabis retail store at 8280 Broadway in the Heavy Commercial (HC) Zone pursuant to Municipal Code Chapter 17.32.

Summary: This is a request to establish a MMD cannabis retail store at 8280 Broadway in the HC Zone. The proposed project would utilize the existing single story commercial building and existing parking lot to be reused as a MMD. The scope of the project includes remodeling of the existing structure within the same floor area. Site modifications include parking lot re-striping, loading and pedestrian access from the parking lot and street frontage and miscellaneous site improvements such as lighting, signage, fencing and security cameras.

Discussion: Chapter 17.32 of the Lemon Grove Municipal Code (LGMC) allows MMDs with an approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP) application in commercial and industrial zoning districts. To be eligible, proposed MMD sites must be separated by 1,000 feet from the regulated and protected uses described in LGMC Section 17.32.090(B), including MMDs, licensed daycare facilities, schools and parks. Potential MMDs may be screened through a Minor Use Permit (MUP) application prior to CUP submittal to determine if CUP-200-0001
April 19, 2022
Page | 2
the proposed site meets zoning and separation criteria, and establish early separation findings.

Background
On November 4, 2020, the Applicant, Pick Axe Holdings LLC, filed a MUP application to establish for early separation findings, and submitted a CUP application on November 28, 2020 to operate a MMD cannabis retail store at 8280 Broadway. On January 12, 2021 the Community Development Manager (CDM) published a Notice of CDM Decision to approve MUP-210-0007. No appeals were filed at that time. The CUP application was incomplete and was not approved prior to the one-year expiration of the MUP. The applicant reapplied for the MUP prior to its expiration date of January 12, 2022. On January 27, 2022 the CDM published a Notice of CDM Decision to again approve MUP210-0007.

An appeal of the CDM Decision to approve Minor Use Permit MUP-210-0007 was filed by Rita Hirmez & Sabah Toma (Appellants) on January 28, 2022. On April 5, 2022, the City Council denied the appeal, thereby granting approval of MUP-200-0007. The Appellants also filed a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) application for a proposed MMD cannabis retail store at 8290 Broadway on December 9, 2021. The proposed MMD cannabis retail store at 8290 Broadway is located directly northeast and adjacent to Applicant’s property at 8280 Broadway.

Project Description
The proposed project consists of an existing single story commercial building to be converted into a MMD cannabis retail store located at 8280 Broadway, Lemon Grove, CA 91945. The MMD cannabis retail store would sell both recreational and medical marijuana to customers age 21 and over; and only medical marijuana to persons of age 18 who possess a valid physician’s recommendation.

The scope of the project is to include interior remodel of the existing structure with nonstructural and non-load bearing walls. Site modifications include parking lot re-striping, pedestrian access from the parking lot and existing right-of-way and miscellaneous site improvements such as lighting, fencing and security cameras, etc.

The parcel addressed as 8280 Broadway (APN 499-200-22-00) is a 0.68 acre (29,729 square-feet) lot currently used as an automotive garage and towing yard. The property abuts Broadway with 152 feet of frontage on Broadway, with sidewalk, curb & gutter, two driveway curb cuts, and landscaping. The requested CUP proposes reuse of the existing commercial building and parking lot and authorization to operate the existing commercial building as a MMD cannabis retail store. The existing billboard on the southwest corner of the site would remain.

CUP-200-0001
April 19, 2022
Page | 3
The space within the 1,476 square-foot one-story building would be reconfigured with a one-way entrance into a lobby and another entry into the dispensary from the lobby.

There is a separate one-way exit from the dispensary and a separate side entrance for employees and deliveries. A new parapet and canopy would be added to the building with painted wall signs on the south and east facing parapet walls. 5,446 square feet (sf) of existing impervious surface area would be removed for new planting areas. 4,539 sf of new/replaced impervious surface area is proposed. This would result in an overall reduction of 907 sf of impervious surface area on the project site.

Land Use Analysis
The subject property has a Lemon Grove General Plan land use designation of General Business and a zoning designation of HC, Heavy Commercial. According to the General Plan, this land use designation is planned for professional office, wholesale business, research and development, high technology production, and sales. MMDs are authorized with a CUP in commercial zoning districts, including the HC zone, according to LGMC Section 17.32.090(A).

The General Plan establishes a maximum density of 1.2 Floor Area Ratio (FAR) in the General Business designation. The applicant proposes to maintain the existing 0.05 FAR, well below the maximum allowable FAR. No cultivation, manufacturing, processing, or delivery services are proposed with the CUP application. Site alterations and improvements including new landscape, lighting, signage, and access and parking area improvements are incorporated into the CUP application.

Development Standards
LGMC Section 17.16.080(G) outlines basic standards which are applicable to all land and structures in the HC zone. The following table compares those standards to the site conditions at the subject address. The proposed project is in compliance with all basic development standards.

Standard Required Proposed
Min. Lot Area 10,000 square feet 29,729 square feet
Front Yard Setback 20 feet min. 22 feet
Side Yard Setback None (0 ft.) 10 feet
Rear Yard Setback None (0 ft.) Approx. 137 feet
Maximum Building Height 30 feet 14 feet 6 inches
Max. Building Coverage 40% 5%

Parking
The Lemon Grove parking requirement for retail/business is one parking space per 500 square feet of floor area (LGMC 17.24.010). Thus, four parking spaces is the minimum amount of parking required for a retail sales use. The proposed project provides 24 parking spaces including two disabled spaces. This is ample off-street parking for customers, employees and deliveries.

The layout of the 24 on-site parking spaces complies with the LGMC off-street parking regulations. The parking area accommodates a 24 foot two-way drive aisle and 9 foot by 19 foot parking stalls with wheel stops as required by the Space and Access Dimensions in LGMC Section 17.24.010(F) for parking dimensions. No parking spaces encroach into the required 20 foot front yard setback. The plans do not show bicycle parking; however, staff recommends conditioning the project to provide a bicycle rack or other storage device for bicycle parking. Section 17.24.010(G) requires one bicycle space per ten required vehicle parking spaces.

Traffic
East Broadway would operate at an acceptable Level of Service (LOS) D or higher at 33,400 average daily trips (ADT). The SANDAG 2050 Forecast estimates 30,600 ADT for this section of Broadway, well below the acceptable LOS standard. Broadway is currently operating at an acceptable LOS. The proposed project replaces an existing commercial facility that utilizes the existing street network in Lemon Grove.

The amount of traffic generated by a dispensary is similar to existing retail/commercial uses. The Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition estimates 211 ADT per 1000 sf of building area for a dispensary. The ITE rates for commercial shops range from 40 ADT/1000 sf for specialty retail/strip commercial to 850 ADT/1000 sf for a convenience market (w/gasoline pumps). Tow yards are not a use where there are any ITE published rates. Traffic generation for a tow yard would then be estimated based on the number of calls on an average day. The range of ADT for permitted commercial uses on this site are 60 – 1,255 ADT. The ADT for this dispensary is 311 ADT based on the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition.

Street Improvements
Off-street parking regulations, specifically Section 17.24.010(H), also require the installation of city standard street improvements along abutting streets as part of all discretionary permit application. LGMC Chapter 12.10 requires street dedication and street improvements with building permits that exceed $25,000 in value. The Engineering Division has provided a list of preliminary conditions related to street improvements and are included in the city council resolution conditions.

Loading
CUP-200-0001
April 19, 2022
Page | 5
According to LGMC Section 17.24.020(B)(8), the CDM may determine loading requirements for unlisted uses, such as MMDs, based upon the particular characteristics of the use. Deliveries from licensed cannabis distributors to the dispensary are not anticipated to occur in vehicles that require large, designated berths and therefore one is not provided. A condition of approval requires review of loading by the CDM prior to the issuance of a building permit.

Landscaping
The Lemon Grove Water Efficient Landscape Regulations in Chapter 18.44 of the LGMC require discretionary applications to provide a conceptual landscape plan that conforms to both the Zoning Ordinance and the aforementioned landscape regulations.

Landscaping requirements and the proposed landscape for the project are as follows:

Standard Required Provided
Min. 10% Landscape Area 10% (2,506 sf) 32 % (8,090 sf)
Min 25% Planted
Landscape
25% (6,264 sf) 27% (6,876 sf)
Required On-Site Trees 8 17
Required Street Trees 4 4
Screening
The cannabis regulations in Chapter 17.32 do not require on-site fencing, however, the project plans show a 6 foot high solid wood fence along the front property line. The Lemon Grove Sheriff’s Department review of the plans recommend a see-through fencing material for security purposes. This recommendation is included as a condition in the City Council resolution. The remainder of the perimeter of the site is bordered by existing chain link fencing which will remain in place.

Any new rooftop HVAC units must be screened. LGMC Section 17.24.050(E)(10) requires such units to be screened from the level of adjacent streets and walks while Section

17.24.040(C)(1) limits this screening, and any other rooftop appurtenance, to less than eight (8) feet in height. The new parapet wall on top of the existing building can provide effective HVAC screening. Screening of rooftop HVAC equipment is included as a condition in the city council resolution.

Trash
A trash refuse enclosure is proposed that is conditioned to meet current storm water requirements. Storm water review of the construction drawings, and inspections, ensure that the trash enclosure will have a permanent waterproof roof and be fully screened to prevent rainfall contact and wind dispersion of trash.

Lighting
Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles encourage all exterior areas to be adequately lit. Exterior and interior security lighting and security cameras are included in the Operations Manual. Review of detailed security lighting plans will occur as part of the building permit for the project. In addition, LGMC Section

17.24.080 requires light fixtures to be maintained and adjusted to direct light away from adjacent streets and properties so as to prevent nuisance conditions.

Signage
Pursuant to sign ordinance Section 18.12.040(C), commercial uses are generally permitted up to three signs. The total allowable sign area permitted is 20% of the dispensary building wall facing Broadway, or approximately 96 sf. The proposed signage shown in the elevations consists of proposed painted signs “Earth” on the south facing parapet wall and “Ivy” on the east facing parapet wall. The total sign area of the proposed painted wall signs is approximately 34 sf. The existing billboard on the southwest corner of the site would remain.

Conclusion:

The City Council must make the following findings as stated in LGMC Section 17.28.050 in order to approve any conditional use permit application:

1. The use is compatible with the neighborhood or the community;

2. The use is not detrimental to the health, safety, convenience or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity;

3. The use complies with performance standards according to Section 17.24.080;

4. The use is consistent with applicable provisions of the particular zoning district and with policies and standards of the general plan.

Section 17.32.080 also requires the decision making authority consider:

5. Whether the approval of the proposed use will violate the minimum requirements set forth in chapter 17.32 for distance separations between establishments which dispense, process or cultivate medical marijuana; and separations between establishments which dispense, process or cultivate medical marijuana and other specific regulated or protected land uses as set forth in chapter 17.32; and.

6. Whether the proposed use complies with Title 17 of the Lemon Grove Municipal Code.

Staff believes that the required findings can be made in the affirmative and that required considerations were duly considered provided the conditions in the city council resolution of approval are observed. The application materials as presented and the corresponding conditions incorporate and reflect input from all City divisions, including: Building, Engineering, Heartland Fire & Rescue, Planning, Building, Sheriff’s Crime Prevention, and D-Max Engineering, the City’s storm water consultant.

This CUP is valid for one year, and will expire one year after approval of the CUP, unless extended by the City Council prior to the one year expiration date.

Environmental Review:

Not subject to review Negative Declaration
Categorical Exemption, Sections 15301 Mitigated Negative Declaration The project as proposed is categorically exempt from the environmental review requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines.

The Class 1, Section 15301 Existing Facilities exemptions consist of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency’s determination. The CUP application seeks authorization to operate an existing structure in an urbanized area as a Medical Marijuana Dispensary and involves no expansion of the existing structure. This request is lesser in scale than the examples of Class 1 exemptions in the CEQA Guidelines, including those for additions resulting in a 50% increase in floor area up, to a maximum up 2,500 square-feet, and demolition of multifamily residential structures up to six (6) dwelling units in urban areas.

The CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 exceptions to categorical exemption use do not apply to the project. The subject property is within a built-out urban environment thus limiting potential for cumulative effects from successive projects and avoiding impacts to General Plan identified biological habitats or environmental resources of hazardous or critical concern. The project does not involve any other unusual circumstances that could potentially have a significant effect on the environment. The project site is not a hazardous waste site nor is it identified as such in any “Cortese List” including the DTSC EnviroStor database and State Water Resources Control Board GeoTracker tool. No impacts to scenic highways will occur as State Route 94 is not designated as, nor identified as eligible to be, a CalTrans scenic highway along city limits. Historic resources will not be impacted as the project site is not included in the San Diego County Historic Properties Data File nor the Lemon Grove Historical Society List of Historic Properties as referenced in the Lemon Grove General Plan Conservation and Recreation Element.

Fiscal Impact: No fiscal impact is associated with the approval of the CUP. Future sales of medical marijuana will generate additional sales tax and cannabis revenue to the City of Lemon Grove.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LEMON GROVE,

CALIFORNIA, CONDITIONALLY APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT CUP-200-0001, A REQUEST TO ALLOW A MEDICAL MARIJUANA
DISPENSARY AT 8280 BROADWAY, LEMON GROVE, CALIFORNIA.

WHEREAS, the California voters approved Proposition 215 in 1996 to ensure that seriously ill Californians have the right to obtain and use cannabis for medical purposes and to encourage elected officials to implement a plan for the safe and affordable distribution of medicine; and
WHEREAS, in 2003, the California State Legislature adopted Senate Bill 420, the Medical Marijuana Program Act, to clarify and further implement Proposition 215 in part by authorizing patients and Primary caregivers to associate within the State of California in order to collectively or cooperatively cultivate cannabis for medical purposes; and
WHEREAS, in 2015, the California State Legislature adopted Assembly Bill 243, Assembly Bill 266, and Senate Bill 643, collectively known as the Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act, to establish a statewide regulatory framework and establish the Bureau of Medical Marijuana Regulation for the regulation of medical marijuana activity occurring in jurisdictions across California; and WHEREAS, on November 8, 2016, voters in the City of Lemon Grove passed Measure V, an initiative removing the City's prohibition of medical marijuana dispensaries and establishing performance standards and a permit process by which medical marijuana dispensaries (MMDs) may be established, which is codified as Chapter

17.32 in the Lemon Grove Municipal Code (LGMC); and
WHEREAS, LGMC Section 17.32.090(B) establishes the distance requirements between dispensaries (including MMDs) as a regulated use and protected land uses, including public parks, playgrounds, licensed day care facilities, schools and alcohol and substance abuse treatment centers as defined in the LGMC; and WHEREAS, on April 5, 2022, the City Council denied an appeal of MUP-200- 0007 thereby granting approval of MUP-200-0007 for early separation findings; and Attachment A

WHEREAS, on November 28, 2020, Pick Axe Holdings, LLC filed Conditional Use Permit application CUP-190-0002, a request to establish a MMD cannabis retail store at 8280 Broadway in the HC Zone, and on March 21, 2022 Community Development Department staff found the application complete; and
WHEREAS, Notice of the Public Hearing was given in compliance with Lemon Grove Section 17.28.020(F). On April 8, 2022, the Notice of Public Hearing for CUP-200- 0001 was published in the San Diego Union Tribune and mailed to all property owners within 1,000 feet of the subject property. Staff confirmed the presence of the required onsite public notice sign on April 7, 2022; and WHEREAS, the proposed project is categorically exempt from the environmental review requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities; and WHEREAS, the Zoning Ordinance includes street improvement requirements per LGMC Chapter 12.10 and Section 17.24.010 (H). A clear nexus is made to require street improvements because: 1) this is the highest and best use of the property from a revenue standpoint; 2) the proposed use is higher intensity than typical retail uses and was not analyzed as a part of the General Plan Master Environmental Impact Report; 3) medical marijuana dispensary means persons with disabilities are likely to need access to the facility via vehicles or as a pedestrian or bicyclist; and 4) sidewalk and street improvements are largely supported by the General Plan Health & Wellness Element, Community Development Element, and Mobility Element policies; and WHEREAS, this permit does not excuse any owner or operator from complying with all applicable federal, state, county or local laws, ordinances or regulations. The owner or operator is required to determine if another permit or approval from any other agency or department is necessary. The City, by issuing this permit, does not relinquish its right to enforce any violation of law; and
WHEREAS, on April 19, 2022, City Council held a duly noticed public hearing to consider Conditional Use Permit application CUP-200-0001; and WHEREAS, the City Council determined that the following findings of fact can be made as required by LGMC Section 17.28.050(C):

Page | 11

1. The use is compatible with the neighborhood or the community; LGMC Chapter 17.32 is the product of a 2016 citizen's initiative, Measure V, which explicitly authorized Medical Marijuana Dispensaries as a conditionally permissible land use. The proposed project is compatible with the community insofar as it is consistent with Chapter 17.32 which was codified at the direction of Lemon Grove voters. The design of the proposed use is compatible with surrounding properties and uses by orienting the entrance generally towards the parking lot with ample landscaping and security lighting.

2. The use is not detrimental to the health, safety, convenience or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity;
LGMC Chapter 17.32 is the product of a 2016 citizen’s initiative, Measure V, which explicitly authorized Medical Marijuana Dispensaries as a conditionally permissible land use. The Lemon Grove General Plan adopted in 1996 did not contemplate Medical Marijuana Dispensaries as a land use nor were the specific environmental impacts assessed pursuant to CEQA. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan as a consequence of LGMC Chapter 17.32 which was codified at the direction of Lemon Grove voters. The proposed project as designed and conditioned avoids potential detriments to the health, safety, convenience or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity.

3. The use complies with performance standards according to Section

17.24.080;
The proposed project replaces an existing commercial facility and would result in a reduction of 907 square feet of impervious surface area. No expansion of the existing floor area of the commercial building would occur. With the security measures outlined in the Operations Manual, the project would not create nuisances, hazards, or dangerous or objectionable effects from the operation of the proposed MMD cannabis retail store. The project site is located approximately 600 feet away from the nearest residential zone and would not create undesirable impacts on residential neighborhoods.

4. The use is consistent with applicable provisions of the particular zoning district and with policies and standards of the general plan; LGMC Chapter 17.32 is the product of a 2016 citizen's initiative, Measure V, which explicitly authorized Medical Marijuana Dispensaries as a conditionally permissible land use. The proposed project is compatible with provisions of the Heavy Commercial zone insofar as it is consistent with Chapter 17.32 which was codified at the direction of Lemon Grove voters. The Lemon Grove General Plan adopted in 1996 did not contemplate Medical Marijuana Dispensaries but the project is consistent with the General Plan as a consequence of voter approval of Measure V.

WHEREAS, LGMC Section 17.32.080 also requires City Council to consider the following with the required Conditional Use Permit findings:

A. Whether the approval of the proposed use will violate the minimum requirements set forth in LGMC Chapter 17.32 for distance separations between establishments which dispense, process or cultivate medical marijuana; and separations between establishments which dispense, process or cultivate medical marijuana and other specific regulated or protected land uses as set forth in LGMC Chapter

17.32. The proposed location for a MMD cannabis retail store at 8280 Broadway would not violate the minimum distance separations between MMD establishments and other protected uses. The property at 8280 Broadway is approximately 5,894 feet from the nearest operating, or conditionally permitted, or proposed regulated use (3515 Harris St.). Staff found no evidence of any protected uses, including public parks, playgrounds, licensed day care facilities, schools and alcohol and substance abuse treatment centers as defined in the LGMC, within 1,000 feet.

Furthermore, the nearest protected use is approximately 1,065 feet from the proposed dispensary site when taking into account natural topographical barriers.

B. Whether the proposed use complies with Title 17 of the Lemon Grove Municipal Code.

CITY OF LEMON GROVE

CITY COUNCIL

STAFF REPORT
Item No. 4.

Meeting Date: April 19, 2022
Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Department: City Manager’s Office
Staff Contact: Lydia Romero, City Manager;
[email protected]
Item Title: Five-Year Agreement with the County of San Diego and the San Diego County Sheriff
Recommended Action: Adopt resolution (Attachment A) approving a five-year agreement with the County of San Diego (County) and the San Diego Sheriff for law enforcement services.

Background: Since the City’s incorporation in 1977, the City has relied on the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department to provide municipal law enforcement services. The City, along with eight other cities in the County, negotiates an agreement for services every five years. The current agreement is set to expire on June 30, 2022.

Presented for City Council consideration is a resolution (Attachment A) that approves an “Agreement between the City of Lemon Grove, the County of San Diego and the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department for Municipal Law Enforcement Services” for a term of five years, commencing on July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2027.

Discussion: The City of Lemon Grove, along with eight other cities in San Diego County, contracts with the County of San Diego for municipal law enforcement services. The contract is a joint financial agreement between all of the contract cities and the County— taking advantage of common needs and economies of scale that result in a lower cost for law enforcement than having a municipal police department or individually contracting with the County. The previous agreement for services expires on June 30, 2022.
