Scope of Work:
Task 1 – CEQA Noise and Vibration Study
1A. Existing Noise Environment:
Traffic Noise: Existing noise levels due to nearby transportation noise sources will be quantified. Saxelby Acoustics uses the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) traffic noise prediction model for the prediction of traffic noise levels. Direct inputs to the traffic model will include traffic data provided by the project traffic consultant, existing posted speed limits, truck count information, and 24-hour traffic split data collected by Saxelby Acoustics. Community Noise Survey: Saxelby Acoustics will conduct a noise survey within the project site to quantify existing background noise levels from on the project site and at exiting noisesensitive receptors in the project area. The noise survey will consist of short-term noise level measurements and continuous noise level measurements for a minimum period of 24-hours. 1B. Analysis of Transportation Noise Environment:
Saxelby Acoustics will evaluate increased traffic noise levels at existing sensitive receptors in the project vicinity. This task will be performed using traffic volumes provided by the traffic engineer.
We anticipate providing traffic noise levels for existing, existing plus project, cumulative, and cumulative plus project scenarios. However, should additional scenarios be included in the traffic study, we will also evaluate those scenarios. We will also calculate exterior and interior traffic noise levels on the proposed residential uses. If necessary, we will evaluate any required exterior or interior noise control measures needed to achieve compliance with the City of Oakley noise level standards.

Subject: Proposal – CEQA Transportation Study – East Cypress Corridor Specific Plan Amendments
Dear Cindy:
Fehr & Peers is pleased to submit this proposal to prepare a Transportation Impact Assessment as part of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review for proposed modifications to the East Cypress Corridor Specific Plan in Oakley, California. We understand the Specific Plan’s developer is contemplating two changes to the plan, which include the development of approximately 440 additional single family residential homes and the removal of the Rock Creek Slough Bridge. The Rock Creek Slough Bridge extended Bethel Island Road to the south connecting to Delta Road, providing a second access to the area for the public and emergency vehicles.
The following scope of work outlines tasks to prepare a city standard Transportation Impact Assessment for the project for use within CEQA review. We have developed this draft scope of work based on our understanding of the project and the city’s typical requirements for large development projects (City of Oakley, Traffic Impact Analysis Guidelines, October 2018). Since the East Cypress Corridor Specific Plan’s environmental document was prepared and approved in 2006, how transportation assessments are conducted has substantially changed. These changes include the evaluation of Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) as the primary metric for assessing transportation impacts and the need for evacuation analyses for constrained environments.
While VMT is currently used and required within California environmental assessments, most cities, including Oakley, still desire the evaluation of levels of service to understand project effects and provide information to the public. We have included an update to the previously prepared intersection level of service analysis to reflect current conditions as an optional task. 1169

SCOPE OF WORK
Task 1 – Project initiation/City Scoping Meeting
Fehr & Peers will schedule and attend a meeting (or conference call) with relevant city planning and engineering staff to discuss our draft scope of work and the studies necessary for project CEQA transportation review. We will present our approach and draft scope to city staff, obtain comments, and adjust our approach and scope as necessary.
Task 2 – Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT)
Consistent with SB 743 requirements, Fehr & Peers will perform a VMT assessment using the guidance published by the Contra Costa County Transportation Authority (CCTA) in July 2020 as the City of Oakley has not yet adopted VMT thresholds, metrics, methods, or standards of significance related to VMT. Using the CCTA Travel Demand Model, we will estimate the VMT outcomes of the proposed project. Both the project’s effect on VMT and the total project generated VMT will be calculated. Total VMT, daily VMT per resident and daily VMT per service population will be assessed. The following six scenarios will be evaluated:
1. Baseline Conditions
2. Baseline with Project Conditions
3. Baseline with Project Conditions, with Rock Creek Slough Bridge
4. Year 2040 Cumulative Conditions
5. Year 2040 Cumulative with Project Conditions
6. Year 2040 Cumulative with Project Conditions, with Rock Creek Slough Bridge For the purposes of this assessment, the “Project” will include the currently proposed changes. As the East Cypress Corridor Specific Plan was previously approved (and has been partially constructed), it will be assumed and included in the baseline scenarios.
Task 3 – Transit, Bicycle and Pedestrian Evaluation & Policy Review Fehr & Peers will evaluate the levels of bus, bicycle, and pedestrian activity forecast to be generated by the proposed project, and the potential impacts of that demand on the area circulation networks. The effects of the project, if any, on local transit routes will be qualitatively assessed. The proposed internal and existing surrounding pedestrian and bicycle networks will be reviewed for safety (compliance with design standards) and adequacy to serve projected levels of travel activity.
1170
Cindy Gnos
November 15, 2023
As part of this task, we will review the project’s consistency with transportation related goals from the City of Oakley General Plan and applicable local, State and Federal regulations, programs, and policies. Conflicts will be identified, if any.
Task 4 – Emergency Event Identification and Evacuation Response Due Diligence Our understanding is that the city has not undertaken the establishment of evacuation time standards and thus the project team (in coordination with City staff) will need to develop CEQA thresholds of significance related to a project's effect on emergency evacuation time.
Fehr & Peers will review the City's General Plan Circulation and Safety Elements, and other relevant evacuation planning documents to confirm emergency events that have the most realistic chance of requiring an evacuation of the study area. These potential emergency events could include natural events, such as fires, flooding, and earthquakes, as well as person-made events, like chemical accidents, toxic gas releases, and fire from industrial accidents. We understand that the event of greatest concern in the study area is wildfire.
It is understood that due to the complexities and unique challenges of the study area, and the lack of codified standards and/or formal design guidance for evacuation studies (i.e., required evacuation times), the project team will provide recommendations on the wildfire emergency event(s) that have the most realistic chance of requiring an evacuation of the study area as well as the appropriate response for a wildfire related emergency event (e.g., shelter in place, evacuate to upper floors, evacuate only the building/facility, evacuate to a specified distance, or evacuate study area immediately).
After completion of the previously described work, Fehr & Peers will propose CEQA standards of significance related to a project's effect on evacuation times. It is anticipated that these proposed standards of significance will be presented to City staff for review and comment prior to undertaking Task 5 of this scope of work.
Task 5 – Establishing Project Effect on Evacuation Times Task 5 is based on the following assumptions:
• The study area for the evacuation analysis is generally bounded by East Cypress Road/Main Street, the Marsh Creek Regional Trail, Soundmound Boulevard/Rock Slough and Soundmound Boulevard /Mariner Road. The study area also includes Bethel Island. • The evacuation analysis will consider one baseline evacuation scenario (time of day, evacuation pattern, road closures, type of emergency event, etc.) for each evacuation day 1171
Cindy Gnos
November 15, 2023
(one weekday day and one weekend day). The analysis will be performed for the following conditions:
o No Project Conditions
o Plus Project Conditions
o Plus Project Conditions with Rock Creek Slough Bridge • The assessment of the project's impact on evacuation times will be based on data from the 2020 base year and year 2040 versions of the CCTA travel demand model.
Fehr & Peers will complete a quantitative analysis (using the Fehr & Peers EVAC+ tool) of evacuation times for one evacuation scenario. It is anticipated that the wildfire evacuation analysis will require the City of Oakley and surrounding environs to evacuate. The scenario would consider a road closure pattern associated with the evacuation event, such as the full closure of East Cypress Road, as determined by the project team.
Based on the defined evacuation scenario, the first step in the analysis will focus on estimating the number of evacuating vehicle trips for each evacuation scenario. We will utilize the CCTA travel demand model socio-economic data and trip generation information for the evacuation zone to estimate baseline evacuation demand. This data includes a variety of information based on census data, including persons per household, number of employees, auto-ownership information, population, and other factors that could affect the number of vehicles per household used during evacuation. The travel demand will also consider time of day. For example, an evacuation event during the middle of the night would create an evacuation trip for most that would begin at their home and end at either the evacuation center or somewhere external to the study area. Conversely, an event that occurred during the middle of the day (when people are shopping) could delay evacuation movements as people come home first to access their belongings prior to leaving. The number of evacuation trips for the project will be estimated based on the project and Specific Plan descriptions.
The during-evacuation traffic operations analysis will utilize Fehr & Peers' EVAC+ Tool. This tool will be customized to reflect the evacuation roadway network and traffic demand data extracted from the CCTA travel demand model. The tool then references trip tables for areas outside of the study area to form the "background" traffic estimates on the roadways not affected during an evacuation event. Areas affected by the evacuation event are then processed through the EVAC+ Tool trip estimator to estimate the number and sequencing of trips that occur due to the event.
The sub-area extracted network and new trip tables are then input into a Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) model. A DTA model estimates traffic and levels of congestion on 15-minute 1172
Cindy Gnos
November 15, 2023
intervals and, as link congestion builds (roads fill with cars), the model dynamically reassigns traffic to less-congested routes, if available. This is a more accurate way of estimating trip assignment and identifying congested locations on the network (versus standard Synchro analysis) that should be considered during an evacuation event. The results of this modeling effort will be used to identify bottlenecks in the City’s and the County's roadway network during the evacuation scenario.
The results of the traffic operations analysis will be illustrated in figures and metrics will be summarized in tables to highlight the key findings, including evacuation travel times and congestion bottlenecks. We anticipate two meetings with the project team as part of this task.
The change in evacuation patterns and times would be compared against a threshold of significance to be as part of Task 4. If significant impacts are identified, mitigation measures will be developed to alleviate the impact. Recommendations will also be developed to aid egress from the project site onto the local roadway network.
It is noted that the quantitative evaluation described in this task is conceptual in nature as the historical wildfire patterns in and around Oakley shows that wildfires are unpredictable in nature and can be sparked by any number of causes. The purpose of the analysis is to assess for one given set of assumptions (which may not reflect an actual fire event in the future) how evacuation times could potentially change after completion of the proposed project. A more formal wildfire evacuation planning effort should be undertaken by the City to more carefully consider various evacuation scenarios and evacuation parameters (e.g., as part of a Safety Element Update analysis in-line with the legislative requirements of SB 99 and AB 747).
Task 6 – Impacts and Mitigation Measures
Using the city’s established standards of significance, mitigation measures will be developed and proposed for all identified significant adverse impacts. If a significant adverse impact relative to VMT is identified, we will outline a Transportation Demand Management Plan (TDM) as a potential mitigation measure. The TDM plan will present the measures necessary and likely travel demand reductions to result.
Task 7 – Documentation
The following documents will be prepared:
• Draft Transportation Impact Analysis
• Final Transportation Impact Analysis
1173
Cindy Gnos
November 15, 2023
Task 8 – Meetings
We anticipate attending four meetings (or virtual calls) with the project team and/or city staff throughout the project. We will be available to attend additional meetings on a time-andmaterials basis.
Given the size of the effort and complex nature of the project, we would propose to meet with city staff upon initiation (Task 1) to obtain their review, comment, and final approval of the workscope prior to beginning work or conducting data collection. We will adjust our proposal based on their input and provide Raney with a final scope of work and budget on their approval.
OPTIONAL Task 9.1 – Intersection Level of Service Analysis While intersection levels of service are no longer used within the CEQA review process, the City typically requires them as part of project approvals to understand how developments will affect transportation conditions in the surrounding community. As an optional task, Fehr & Peers will update the intersection LOS analysis from the prior Draft EIR to current conditions. Specifically, peak-hour intersection operations will be evaluated for the following scenarios using the HCM 6th Edition method for vehicles:
1. Existing Conditions - Existing conditions based on traffic counts at the study locations.
2. Existing Conditions with Approved Specific Plan - Existing traffic counts plus traffic expected to be generated by the approved Specific Plan. This scenario does not include the Rock Creek Slough Bridge.
3. Existing with Approved Specific Plan plus Project Conditions – Existing traffic counts plus traffic expected to be generated by the project.
4. Existing with Approved Specific Plan plus Project Conditions with Rock Creek Slough Bridge – Existing traffic counts plus traffic expected to be generated by the project, with the inclusion of the Rock Creek Slough Bridge. This scenario does not include the Rock Creek Slough Bridge.
5. Cumulative Conditions - Forecasts for the cumulative scenario will be based on traffic growth trends as described in the Oakley General Plan EIR and supplemented by a check of traffic forecasts for the study area in the 2040 Contra Costa Countywide travel demand model. This scenario will include development associated with the previously approved Specific Plan.
6. Cumulative with Project Conditions – Cumulative forecasts plus traffic expected to be generated by the project.
7. Cumulative with Project Conditions with Rock Creek Slough Bridge – Cumulative forecasts plus traffic expected to be generated by the project, with the inclusion of the Rock Creek Slough Bridge.

We will conduct field reconnaissance to verify intersection configurations and traffic control.
Traffic signal timings will be obtained from city staff. Information on transit services, bicycle, and pedestrian facilities within the study area will be collected. All level of service calculations will be conducted using the latest edition of the Transportation Research Board’s Highway Capacity Manual through the Synchro 11.0 analysis software, per city requirements.
All unsignalized study intersections will be evaluated to determine if signal warrants are met under each scenario, utilizing the Peak Hour Traffic Volume Signal Warrant from the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD), most recent edition.
OPTIONAL Task 9.2 – Intersection Improvement Measures
For study locations that exceed the city’s level of service standard, improvement measures will be identified. The previously approved and programed mitigation measures (physical improvements to the local street system) will be verified as still required under the new traffic loads associated with increased levels of traffic. Where necessary, additional improvement measures will be developed and identified.
OPTIONAL Task 9.3 – Intersection LOS Technical Memorandum This task will be documented in a standalone technical memorandum. The following documents will be prepared:
• Draft Intersection LOS and Improvement Measures Technical Memorandum • Final Intersection LOS and Improvement Measures Technical Memorandum

SUBJECT: 1961 Carpenter Road Preliminary General Plan Amendment (PA 01-23) – Work Session to discuss the merits of a potential project to amend the General Plan Land Use Designation of an approximately 3.66-acre parcel from Commercial (CO) to Residential High (RH)
Summary
This is a work session on a request by AJ Bharath of Primeliv, LLC (“Applicant”) to discuss the merits of a potential project to amend the General Plan Land Use Designation of an approximately 3.66-acre site from Commercial (CO) to Residential High (RH) for the purposes of applying for the entitlements to develop a 92-unit multifamily residential project. The project site is located at 1961 Carpenter Road and is zoned C (General Commercial) District. APN 034-030-007. This item is to be an advisory hearing only.
Preliminary General Plan Amendment Process
The process of amending the City of Oakley 2020 General Plan ("General Plan") is subject to California Government Code ("GC") Sections 65350 - 65362, which apply to the preparation, adoption and amending of general plans and general plan elements. GC Section 65351 is written as follows:
"During the preparation or amendment of the general plan, the [City] shall provide opportunities for the involvement of citizens, California Native American Indian tribes, public agencies, public utility companies, and civic, education, and other community groups, through public hearings and any other means the planning agency deems appropriate."
The application process for a General Plan Land Use Amendment can come with significant costs when factoring in Staff time involved in preparing documents, conducting analysis, holding non-public and public meetings, hiring consultants for technical and environmental studies and documents, and consulting with outside agencies. Since a General Plan Land Use Amendment is a legislative and discretionary action that sets the tone for all other land use decisions on a property, Staff encourages potential applicants to first file a Preliminary General Plan Amendment, or "PGPA."
The purpose of the PGPA is to allow Staff to provide a brief description of the proposed amendment and provide a concept of the project as submitted by the Approved and
Forwarded to the
City Council

O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.ci.oakley.ca.us applicant to the City Council and Planning Commission. The applicant is provided a chance to present the request, their intentions for the land use change, and to further describe their concept. Requiring a conceptual design helps to prevent requests for land use amendments for the sole purpose of increasing allowable density and in turn, property value.
Background and Project Description
EXISTING GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING DESIGNATION
• The General Plan Land Use Designation for the project site is Commercial ("CO") - The Commercial designation allows for a broad range of commercial uses typically found adjacent to residential neighborhoods, downtowns, and freeways. General types of commercial uses include retail and service facilities, and limited office uses. • The site is zoned C (General Commercial) District.
PROPOSED LAND USE DESIGNATION
• The General Plan Land Use Designation proposed by the applicant is Residential High (RH) – This designation provides for rental residential units and affordable units to maximize urban residential space. This designation allows for a typical apartmentstyle building or a condominium complex.
SITE CONDITIONS AND SURROUNDING LAND USES
The subject property is a corner lot, rectangular in shape, with an approximately 335- foot frontage along Carpenter Road, and an approximately 477-foot side property line parallel to Empire Avenue. The section of public right of way along Empire Avenue, parallel to the 477-foot side of the property, is equipped with curb, gutter, and sidewalk. In contrast, the Carpenter Road side, corresponding to the 335-foot frontage, lacks these features. The north-east corner of the property has an existing single-family home on the site that is accessed by a driveway on Carpenter Road.
The home has been on the property since at least 1916, according to USGS map records. The property also has over 25 trees on it and a few accessory structures, including a detached garage adjacent to the home.
The adjacent properties have a variety of existing uses, reflecting the area's diverse zoning designations. To the east, the properties fall under commercial zoning; these properties include a vacant site and a multipurpose property serving as a residence, event venue, and garage door supplier. Almond Grove Elementary School is also to the east, beyond the commercially zoned properties. South of the subject property is a home situated on commercially zoned land, followed by a commercial shopping center located a few hundred feet further. On the western side, two properties are designated as “agricultural preserve”. The properties directly to the north form part of a residential neighborhood consisting of single-family homes. Another parcel, 3300 1211

CONCEPTUAL PLANS
The applicant has provided conceptual plans demonstrating the type of project they have in mind should they move forward with a formal General Plan Amendment and other development entitlements application. For this site, the applicant envisions multiple three-story, walk-up style apartment buildings, as shown in Figure 1. The applicant’s conceptual design depicts a 92-unit development, which would utilize the State’s Density Bonus Law to achieve a density of 25.1 units per gross acre. 10 units in the conceptual plan would be below market-rate. The conceptual plans include a mix of apartment types, ranging from one to three-bedroom units. The conceptual plans include 136 parking spaces surrounding the apartments, with a mix of uncovered parking, carport-based parking, and garages. In the plans provided, the majority of the development is gated and surrounded by fencing. An entrance and two exits are proposed along Empire Avenue, shown in Figure 2.

PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING
On December 5, 2023, a work session on this item was held by the Planning Commission at their regularly scheduled meeting. The role of the Planning Commission was to receive the Staff Report from Staff and public testimony from the applicant, public, and any interested parties, and to provide feedback on the preliminary proposal that would then be passed onto the City Council. During the work session, the Planning Commission generally expressed that they were not fundamentally opposed to the idea of a change in land use designation at this site.
They also expressed that while the basic proposal may be acceptable, the multiple hearings required to entitle a project like the one in the conceptual drawings would 1213

O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.ci.oakley.ca.us be appropriate. An application for the conceptual project would require at least one public hearing with the Planning Commission, and then at least one subsequent public hearing with the City Council due to the necessary General Plan Amendment and Rezone. This typical process would allow the City Council, Planning Commission, and the public to provide input and ensure the eventual use of the property is compatible with the surrounding area. Two members of the public provided public comment and stated they opposed the project, citing a concern for additional traffic and preserving their scenic views.
Analysis
When evaluating amendments to the General Plan's land use designations, it’s important to conduct a comparative review of the land uses and designations of adjacent properties. The adjacent property to the east, shown in Figure 3 along with the subject property, is currently undeveloped and is also designated Commercial in Oakley’s General Plan. When considering how these two adjacent properties should be designated in the General Plan and subsequently developed, having the corner parcel be designated Residential High while the interior parcel remains Commercial may be the least desirable of available options. A commercial use developed on the eastern property could feel distant from Empire Avenue and out of place with the surrounding land uses. It may be more ideal to have the interior, eastern parcel designated as Residential High, leaving the prominent corner for Commercial development. It could also be considered more ideal for both parcels to be designated together as Residential High or to retain their existing Commercial designation. It is noted that the subject property and neighboring property have different owners.

O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.ci.oakley.ca.us There is not an overt concern that changing the designation of the subject property would result in too great a variety of land uses in this area. There is precedent in the City for areas that have been developed with diverse land uses. One example is the area around the Courtyard at Cypress Grove development at East Cypress Road and Rubens Way. This area integrates higher density housing with nearby commercial zones, a school, and single-family residences. The applicant’s proposed multifamily development would also likely align with the objectives set forth in the City’s Housing Element. Moreover, due to recent judicial precedent this development could potentially be approved without being considered inappropriate 'spot zoning’.
Consistency with the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+
Holding an advisory hearing is consistent with the goals in the section of the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+ entitled, “Community and Economic Development Goal”.
Reviewing applications for compliance with Oakley’s development standards ensures thoughtful growth.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact. This is a developer funded account. All Staff time and City of Oakley generated materials are charged to the account.
Staff Recommendation
This is an advisory hearing only. There is no process to approve a project because of this work session. The City Council may act in an advisory role to the applicant on whether there is interest in considering an application for the requested project. If the Council shows favorable interest in the preliminary application, it may advise the applicant to submit, and direct Staff to process, a General Plan Amendment application.
Directing staff to process a General Plan Amendment application would not guarantee Staff support or City Council approval of the project.

1961 Carpenter Road Apartments
Project Description
September 19, 2023
The applicant is requesting preliminary review of a request for a General Plan Amendment and Rezone to allow for multiple family residential on a 3.66 acre parcel at the corner of Carpenter Road and Empire Avenue. There is single-family residential to the north across Carpenter Road, a vacant site the east, a single-family residence on the neighboring parcel to the south, and an undeveloped site across Empire Avenue to the west. Access to Highway 4 is approximately ¾ of a mile away at Laurel Road and the Empire Shopping Center at the Antioch/Brentwood border is ¾ of a mile to the south. Almond Grove Elementary School and two city parks are within walking distance to the east. 1961 Carpenter Road is designated in the current General Plan as Commercial and is zoned C General Commercial. The project site is primarily undeveloped with a single-family home and garage in the northeast corner along Carpenter Road. There is a slight, uniform downslope from north to south.
The provided, conceptual plans demonstrate the type of project that is hoped to be achieved through a General Plan Amendment to Residential High and a rezone to M-17 Multiple Family Residential. The Residential High General Plan land use seeks to provide affordable and rental residential units within typical apartment-style buildings at a density between 9.6 and 16.7 dwelling units per acre. This application depicts a project that utilizes state density bonus law to increase the allowable density by +50% through the provision of 10 very low-income units. As shown, the project includes a total of 92 apartment units at a density of 25.1 dwelling units per gross acre.
Within the site, three-story, walk-up apartment buildings would be arrayed along the east property line and within a looping circulation driveway. Entry to the complex is proposed via an existing curb cut at Empire Avenue. A vehicle entering the site would curve to the right where there will be gated access and a call box for visitors. Six parking stalls are provided outside the gate adjacent to the leasing office and resident amenity space at the ground level of Building One for prospective tenants and guests. In addition to a leasing office and mail room, this space may include resident amenities such as a fitness center and community room.
The architecture is proposed as a transitional style with cast stone piers at the stairs and ground level patios, cement plaster siding painted in warm earth tones, and pitched concrete tile roofs. Resident parking is accessed through gates on either side of the clubhouse facility and arranged along a loop road through the site. There will be one covered carport or private garage stall for each unit in addition to uncovered parking.
The landscape will be designed to provide year-round color, texture, and interest. Plantings will provide evergreen shrubs and trees for screening, flowering plants along the buildings, and trees for shading at the pavement areas.
The proposed transition from underdeveloped, nearly vacant lot to multi-family development will enrich and engage with the surrounding community and provide much needed high-quality housing.
We thank you for your consideration of this proposal and look forward to working with the City of Oakley to reshape this property into a vibrant part of the community. 1219

SUBJECT: 1961 Carpenter Road Preliminary General Plan Amendment (PA 01-23) – Work Session to discuss the merits of a potential project to amend the General Plan Land Use Designation of an approximately 3.66-acre parcel from Commercial (CO) to Residential High (RH)
Summary
This is a work session on a request by AJ Bharath of Primeliv, LLC (“Applicant”) to discuss the merits of a potential project to amend the General Plan Land Use Designation of an approximately 3.66-acre site from Commercial (CO) to Residential High (RH) for the purposes of applying for the entitlements to develop a 92-unit multifamily residential project. The project site is located at 1961 Carpenter Road and is zoned C (General Commercial) District. APN 034-030-007. This item is to be an advisory hearing only.
Preliminary General Plan Amendment Process
The process of amending the City of Oakley 2020 General Plan ("General Plan") is subject to California Government Code ("GC") Sections 65350 - 65362, which apply to the preparation, adoption and amending of general plans and general plan elements. GC Section 65351 is written as follows:
"During the preparation or amendment of the general plan, the [City] shall provide opportunities for the involvement of citizens, California Native American Indian tribes, public agencies, public utility companies, and civic, education, and other community groups, through public hearings and any other means the planning agency deems appropriate."
The application process for a General Plan Land Use Amendment can come with significant costs when factoring in Staff time involved in preparing documents, conducting analysis, holding non-public and public meetings, hiring consultants for technical and environmental studies and documents, and consulting with outside agencies. Since a General Plan Land Use Amendment is a legislative and discretionary action that sets the tone for all other land use decisions on a property, Staff encourages potential applicants to first file a Preliminary General Plan Amendment, or "PGPA."
The purpose of the PGPA is to allow Staff to provide a brief description of the proposed amendment and provide a concept of the project as submitted by the Approved and

O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.CI.Oakley.CA.US applicant to the Planning Commission and City Council. The applicant is provided a chance to present the request, further describe the concept, and provide insight behind the request. Requiring a conceptual design, helps to prevent requests for land use amendments for the sole purpose of increasing allowable density and in turn, property value.
Background and Project Description
EXISTING GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING DESIGNATION
• The General Plan Land Use Designation for the project site is Commercial ("CO") - The Commercial designation allows for a broad range of commercial uses typically found adjacent to residential neighborhoods, downtowns, and freeways. General types of commercial uses include retail and service facilities, and limited office uses. • The site is zoned C (General Commercial) District.
PROPOSED LAND USE DESIGNATION
• The General Plan Land Use Designation proposed by the applicant is Residential High (RH) – This designation provides for rental residential units and affordable units, to maximize urban residential space. This designation allows for a typical apartment-style building or a condominium complex.
SITE CONDITIONS AND SURROUNDING LAND USES
The subject property is a corner lot, rectangular in shape, with an approximately 335- foot frontage along Carpenter Road, and an approximately 477-foot side property line parallel to Empire Avenue. The section of public right of way along Empire Avenue, parallel to the 477-foot side of the property, is equipped with curb, gutter, and sidewalk. In contrast, the Carpenter Road side, corresponding to the 335-foot frontage, lacks these features. The north-east corner of the property has an existing single-family home on the site that is accessed by a driveway on Carpenter Road.
The home has been on the property since at least 1916, according to USGS map records. The property also has over 25 trees on it and a few accessory structures, including a detached garage adjacent to the home.
The adjacent properties have a variety of existing uses, reflecting the area's diverse zoning designations. To the east, the properties fall under commercial zoning; these properties include a vacant site and a multipurpose property serving as a residence, event venue, and garage door supplier. Almond Grove Elementary School is also to the east, beyond the commercially zoned properties. South of the subject property is a home situated on commercially zoned land, followed by a commercial shopping center located a few hundred feet further. On the western side, two properties are designated as “agricultural preserve”. The properties directly to the north form part of a residential neighborhood consisting of single-family homes. Another parcel, 3300 1227

CONCEPTUAL PLANS
The applicant has provided conceptual plans demonstrating the type of project they have in mind should they move forward with a formal General Plan Amendment and other development entitlements application. For this site, the applicant envisions multiple three-story, walk-up style apartment buildings, as shown in Figure 1. The applicant’s conceptual design depicts a 92-unit development, which would utilize the State’s Density Bonus legislation to achieve a density of 25.1 units per gross acre. 10 units in the conceptual plan would be below market-rate. The conceptual plans include a mix of apartment types, ranging from one to three-bedroom units. The conceptual plans include 136 parking spaces surrounding the apartments, with a mix of uncovered parking, carport-based parking, and garages. In the plans provided, the majority of the development is gated and surrounded by fencing. An entrance and two exits are proposed along Empire Avenue, shown in Figure 2.

Analysis
When evaluating amendments to the General Plan's land use designations, it’s important to conduct a comparative review of the land uses and designations of adjacent properties. The adjacent property to the east, shown in Figure 3 along with the subject property, is currently undeveloped and is also designated Commercial in Oakley’s General Plan. When considering how these two adjacent properties should be designated in the General Plan and subsequently developed, having the corner parcel be designated Residential High while the interior parcel remains Commercial may be the least desirable of available options. A commercial use developed on the eastern property could feel distant from Empire Avenue and out of place with the 1229

O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.CI.Oakley.CA.US surrounding land uses. It may be more ideal to have the interior, eastern parcel designated as Residential High, leaving the prominent corner for Commercial development. It could also be considered more ideal for both parcels to be designated together as Residential High or to retain their existing Commercial designation.
Figure 3 – Subject Property and Neighboring Property
There is not an overt concern that changing the designation of the subject property would result in too great a variety of land uses in this area. There is precedent in the City for areas that have been developed with diverse land uses. One example is the area around the Courtyard at Cypress Grove development at East Cypress Road and Rubens Way. This area integrates higher density housing with nearby commercial zones, a school, and single-family residences. The applicant’s proposed multifamily development would also likely align with the objectives set forth in the City’s Housing Element. Moreover, due to recent judicial precedent this development could potentially be approved without being considered inappropriate 'spot zoning’.
Consistency with the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+
Holding an advisory hearing is consistent with the goals in the section of the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+ entitled, “Community and Economic Development Goal”.
Reviewing applications for compliance with Oakley’s development standards ensures thoughtful growth.

item 7.1 was heard before item 4.1.
Associate Planner Evan Gorman presented the staff report and provided an overview of the project and location of the property, he also explained that Work Sessions are held anytime there is a proposed General Plan Amendment, the applicant receives feedback from the DRAFT
1234
Planning Commission, City Council and the public before heavy investment is put into the full application and associated required documents.
The applicant, Benjamin Johansen gave an overview of the context plan showing where this location is relative to the cities of Oakley, Brentwood, and Antioch, he mentioned he believes this is a strategic location for multi family with a large shopping center to the South and the proximity to schools. He mentioned that this area of Oakley is considered the Higher Resource Area, and this project would introduce new types of housing that would provide for residents of all income levels to live in this area.
Commissioner Krieg asked where the other piece of property is that is zoned high density.
Mr. Johansen pointed out on the map where the location of this other piece of high density property is located.
Mr. Johansen mentioned that this project is an opportunity to reintroduce residential density into this area, he also mentioned that there hasn’t been much commercial development within this commercial land use, and this could be an opportunity to introduce projects that will utilize this land and add value to the city. He also mentioned that the site is laid out with four 3-story buildings with a mixture of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom units.
Chair Chuiko mentioned he has not received any comment cards and asked if anyone in the audience had any comments, there was no response from the audience. Chair Chuiko opened it up for discussion with the Commissioners.
Commissioner Krieg mentioned that it looks like the only way into and out of the facility for Southbound traffic because of the divider is to make a U-turn at Neroly, she asked if there was any thought given to having one exit on Carpenter and one on Empire.
Mr. Johansen responded, that is something they could study.
Chair Chuiko commented that perhaps there could be a study, or a revision made so an exit can exist on Carpenter Rd.
Commissioner Krieg mentioned there is a traffic signal at Carpenter and Empire, if there was an exit on Carpenter, they could make that left on Empire to get to Lone Tree.
Commissioner Price commented, it might be possible to break the median and add a left turn lane so those heading South could turn into the complex.
Chair Chuiko asked if Staff had any comment.
Mr. Gorman responded that he was checking with the audience to see if they had public comment and they do, he suggested that when they get to a stopping point, they could open public comment again.
Chair Chuiko asked if Staff had any comment on the discussion of both exits being on Empire Avenue versus one being on Carpenter Road making it easier for people traveling towards Lone Tree Way.
DRAFT
1235
Mr. Strelo addressed the Commission and mentioned that what is here is what the potential applicant has put together to give everyone a concept of what could be developed here, what we’re hoping to get is discussion and comments on the base land use and a decision on if this is an appropriate site for this project or a different project for this type of land use, if there is ever an application filed for an official General Plan amendment, that would come with all the required reports and studies.
Mr. Chuiko mentioned we could go back to Public Comments now, but he does not have any comment cards, and suggested they complete a comment card in the lobby and while they are completing the cards, he would continue on and asked if Commissioners had any comments or questions.
Commissioner Ramirez thanked Mr. Johansen for being here and mentioned that as a resident he drives on these streets all the time and it does get dense in that area on Empire Avenue and would like to know how his firm is approaching complete and safe streets.
Mr. Johansen responded that as Mr. Strelo mentioned when an application is presented, we would have that analysis completed and honor the policies that are laid out by Oakley in the General Plan related to complete streets, he mentioned that he doesn’t have a direct answer at this time but will consider it going forward.
Commissioner Krieg asked if the neighboring property is zoned commercial and asked if it makes sense to have houses on the corner.
Chair Chuiko mentioned there are 4 different options to discuss, do we keep those two properties as they are now, do they amend one of them to be residential high as is proposed here, do we amend and change the neighboring property and keep this one commercial or do we change both properties to residential.
Vice Chair Verduzco mentioned he likes the idea of changing this to High residential and leaving the property on the East side as commercial to create a buffer between the event center and the homes.
Commissioner Krieg mentioned she didn’t recognize the event center from the angle on the map.
Chair Chuiko mentioned we will move to Public Comments.
Kim Madrigal commented that there is already a lot of traffic on that road especially during school hours, she also commented that she likes to look out and see Mt. Diablo and doesn’t want to look at an apartment building, a 3 story apartment would be looking into her backyard, her main concern is traffic and congestion.
Dinesh Khurana commented that traffic is a concern for him as Empire Avenue is already congested, he mentioned he’s concerned about how additional students will impact the schools.
He also mentioned that when he purchased his home, he was expecting some kind of commercial use and he’s also concerned about his view of Mt. Diablo.
Chair Chuiko mentioned we will go back to the Work Session and asked if any Commissioners have any comments or questions or can we entertain a potential accommodation for both Staff and City Council.
DRAFT
1236
Mr. Gorman mentioned that we don’t need an official recommendation tonight, just any feedback and if there is a consensus we can pass on to Council.
Chair Chuiko asked Commissioners if they have any feedback.
Commissioner Krieg mentioned that she shares the concern about the increased density and the number of bodies that will be traveling through this area but doesn’t believe it would be any different if it was developed as a commercial property, a commercial property can be just as tall as a 3-story building, she also mentioned that the view is going to change regardless of what is built there so moving forward we have to decide what is the best use of this property and looking at the map as a whole, there is a lot of commercial property that isn’t being developed and not a lot of high density property and we’ve got people who need that kind of housing.
Chair Chuiko mentioned that regardless of commercial or residential this area is going to be developed and unfortunately along with that comes more traffic and congestion, we live in a very desirable area and a lot of people are moving here. He also mentioned that regardless of the discussion today, this is not a final say, there is a long study that will be done.
Mr. Strelo mentioned what we are looking for is if the Planning Commission feels that this is an application worth looking at further, as Evan stated, a General Plan Amendment comes with a CEQA analysis and a costly upfront application and it can take several months only to get to the decision makers and have them have zero interest in seeing that property change hand so this is the ability to have the public come out and have the Planning Commission give the potential application something to go on, he mentioned we still need to bring this back to the City Council and if at the end of that the applicant submits an application, we will have Public Hearings with both the Planning Commission and the City Council and if this were to become an official application, there will be at least 3 more hearings in front of the Commission and Council.
Commissioner Ramirez mentioned he is much more in line with homes than larger commercial development.
Chair Chuiko thanked the public for being there and mentioned we’d like to hear more from people in the area. He mentioned we will now hear item 4.1. 8) ADJOURN
Chair Chuiko thanked staff and members of the public for a great year and wished everyone a great holiday.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 7:31p.m.

SUBJECT: General Overview of the Recreation Fee Schedule Background and Analysis
After a recent review of fees related to the Recreation Division, it was noted that the fee schedule in place did not properly represent the fees being charged. The intent of the fees charged for the rental of the recreation center was meant to be a per hour fee and was inadvertently noted on the fee schedule as per day. It was also noted that other fees such as the administrative fee for contract programs or classes and the after-school program were missing from the adopted fee schedule.
Staff have taken this as an opportunity to review all fees Recreation related and evaluate our current costs, compare our rates to surrounding cities as well as recommend the addition of fees that we are currently charging, but missing from the Master Fee Schedule.
Items of discussion at this evening’s work session will include the following:
1. Oakley Recreation Center Rental Fees-evaluate remaining competitive in the rental market while ensuring we continue to cover the costs associated with these rentals including personnel and maintenance of the facility. Current fees can be found on the attached fee schedule.
a. Keep fees the same but update from per day to per hour. b. Consider a small increase for all group fees.
c. Consider a small increase of only some of the group fees.
2. After School Program Fees-Oakley has consistently offered an afterschool program, primarily for middle school aged students. In 2021 this program moved from being held on-site at schools to our recreation center. The program was paused this school year while staff evaluated how to better market the program as well as looking at the cost to cover the program while keeping affordability to the community at the forefront. Enrollment is typically minimal, and attendance has been Approved and

O (925) 625-7000 | F (925) 625-9859 | www.CI.Oakley.CA.US limited to only a few students. Staff believes this to be a benefit to the community and is looking for ways to enhance the program. The fee for this program has been charged by session, which usually runs with the school calendar, and equates to $4.00 per day per student. On average the cost to run the program significantly exceeds that of what we charge as a fee.
a. Keep fees the same but change to a monthly fee for consistency. b. Increase fees to charge the cost of the program per student which is approximately $13.50 per hour per student.
c. Increase fees to help off-set the cost of the program to $8.00 per hour per student.
3. Park Rental Fees-similar to the rental of the recreation center, costs to maintain our facilities continue to rise. Our parks and sports field are kept at a high standard and the cost to keep them in their current state is growing. Current fees can be found on the attached fee schedule. a. Keep fees the same.
b. Consider a small increase for all group fees.
c. Consider a small increase of only some of the group fees.
4. Program Fee Split with Contracted Instructors-Most of our programs are led by contracted instructors. Some are held at a City of Oakley facility while others are held at a private facility or virtually. The current contracts with our instructors have 70/30 split on any class held at a City of Oakley facility and an 80/20 split on those held privately or virtually. This split is fairly consistent in surrounding cities. a. Keep the current split of 70/30 and 80/20 and add to the fee schedule.
5. Summer Camp Fee-Summer Camp is a highly attended 5-week program provided during summer break. We have room for 90 students each day and typically have a waiting list just as long. This fee is missing from the master fee schedule and is currently $75 per week for residents and $85 per week for non-residents. The cost to run this program is significantly higher than the fee we are collecting. This cost is also significantly lower than surrounding cities offering a similar program. Again, staff’s desire is to keep the program affordable to all citizens in Oakley while also trying to manage ever increasing costs to do business.

c. Consider an additional fee to provide options of early drop off and late pick up to offer better hours for working parents.
6. Excessive Cleaning Fee-We currently collect a $500 deposit to cover the cost of excessive cleaning and or repairs needed after a rental. In order to ensure consistency, staff recommends adding a standard hourly rate to the master fee schedule as well as a time and material rate in the rare instance staff is unable to clean or repair an item and we must seek a third party to do this work. This fee would be charged in the event the facility needed additional cleaning due to misuse, excessive spills, or damage caused by a rental.
a. Consider adding a $95 per hour rate and a time and material rate to the Master Fee Schedule
7. Cancellation Fee- We currently charging a $38 cancellation fee and require the cancellation within two weeks of the start of the class. In comparing our fee to others, it seems to be quite high. It is also quite high in proportion to the actual cost of the class. Staff recommends lowering the fee to better align with surrounding cities and reducing the time period from two weeks to 5 days. Staff believes this will allow us to provide better customer service while still covering the administrative costs required to cancel the class.
a. Consider reducing the cancellation fee from $38 to $12.
Staff is seeking direction this evening from council, so that we can bring back a public hearing as required, to adopt any changes proposed to the Master Fee schedule.
Consistency with the Oakley Strategic Plan 27+
This item is consistent with almost all of the SP 27+ goals. Recreation events, programs, and rentals all play a significant role in our community and touch each of the SP 27+ goals in some way.
