Agenda No. 9 A

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Daniel Gho, Public Works Director/Deputy City Manager MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026
SUBJECT: Amendment to 4-Leaf Contract for Traffic Engineering Services CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the execution of an amendment with 4-Leaf, Inc., increasing the contract total by an additional $80,000, for Traffic Engineering services for Fiscal Year 2025/26.

1. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.

DISCUSSION
Since 2012, the City of Pacific Grove (City) has contracted with a qualified licensed Professional Engineer for on-call traffic engineering services.

The on-call Traffic Engineer plays a vital role in the overall management and coordination of traffic safety within the City. The Traffic Engineer coordinates all traffic safety and engineering services prescribed by state law to ensure compliance with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) and administers all traffic engineering-related processes as required by the municipal and state vehicle codes. The on-call Traffic Engineer also regularly meets with Public Works and Police staff and attends the Traffic Safety Commission meetings, when needed, to answer questions, provide expert analysis, and receive and resolve citizen traffic safety complaints.

The current on-call traffic engineering services agreement was authorized by the City Council for execution prior to FY 2023/24, with 4Leaf, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $70,000 per fiscal year.

This agreement was authorized with two, one-year extensions. The most current extension was executed in June of 2025 for services to be rendered in FY 2025/26.

The Department of Public Works undertook three major traffic engineering projects this current fiscal year that required extensive traffic engineering services, beyond standard traffic engineering work.

This has prompted the need for this amendment so 4-Leaf can be compensated for the work that has occurred. The three projects include Pine Avenue drop off in front of Robert Down (implemented in the winter of 2025), the Speed Surveys (approved at the March 18 and April 1, 2026 Council meeting), and the traffic engineering report for the intersection of Congress, Central, and Lighthouse Avenue (to be presented in May of 2026).

The original budget of $70k for traffic engineering services was not calculated to include multiple PGCC 4-15-26

Page 44 ends

The original budget of $70k for traffic engineering services was not calculated to include multiple larger scale projects and evaluations. The budget of $70,000 can typically support the development of smaller projects along with the daily review of traffic-related inquiries and CIP project development.

This current fiscal year, the CIty has requested three larger projects (Lighthouse Ave, speed surveys, and Pine Avenue in front of Robert Down) for our traffic engineering team to accomplish. In the past, Public Works staff would assist to lessen the burden and cost placed upon our Traffic Engineering team, but unfortunately, this year we had to rely heavily on our consulting 4-Leaf Program Manager and Engineer to fulfill the request, primarily due to the inability to fulfill the vacant Civil Engineer/Project Manager position in Public Works.

This is a one-time increase in the agreement with 4-Leaf, which allowed us to complete these three major projects, along with routine and ongoing tasks related to traffic engineering services.

OPTIONS
Provide an alternative direction.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Through the mid-year budget adjustments, the City Council approved an increase in Fund 18, Gas Tax, to fund the necessary amendment to the 4-Leaf, Traffic Engineering Services contract. With a two-year budget approved for FY 2025/26 and FY 2026/27, the funding was already allocated in Gas Tax Contract Services above and beyond the $70,000 annually for Traffic Engineering Services. The approved mid-year amendment simply shifted funds, within the gas tax, to cover the additional expenses. There are no funds being derived from the General Fund to cover these expenses, and service levels for Traffic Engineering and Public Works in general will remain the same.

FROM: Chaps Poduri, Councilmember
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026
SUBJECT: Cultural Calendar
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Approve recommendation from the Task Force for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) to adopt a cultural calendar for the City of Pacific Grove.

1. Direct staff to create a cultural calendar landing page on the City’s website to serve as a community resource.

2. DISCUSSION

BACKGROUND
On January 13, 2025, the DEI Task Force adopted a Statement of Purpose for the Cultural Calendar, aiming to "promote cross-cultural awareness, inclusivity, and understanding by recognizing our diverse backgrounds". The proposed calendar recognizes significant dates, holidays, and observances from various cultures and spiritual traditions.

The Task Force held five public meetings in 2025 to gather community input and refine the calendar.

All recommendations with additions were approved unanimously by the Task Force.

The Cultural Calendar serves as a foundational tool to honor traditions of all community members and increase appreciation for the diverse expressions that enrich Pacific Grove.

Agenda No. 9 C

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Casey Day, Chief of Police
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026
SUBJECT: AB 481 Presentation
CEQA: Does not constitute a Project per California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council accept the AB481 presentation that was publicly shared with the community on March 16, 2026.

DISCUSSION
BACKGROUND:

The Pacific Grove Police Department is committed to transparency and to ensuring legitimacy with the Pacific Grove community by providing an annual AB481 Military Equipment use presentation. On September 30, 2021, Governor Newsom signed AB 481 to increase transparency, accountability, and oversight of police departments' acquisition and use of military equipment in the State of California.

Ultimately, providing safeguards to protect the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and liberties.

DISCUSSION:

AB 481 requires police departments to hold an annual community meeting to present a report on the use, possession, and potential acquisition of any military equipment by the police department. This community meeting must be held at least 30 days before presenting to the City Council and was completed on March 16, 2026, in the City of Pacific Grove's council chambers.

This presentation provided the community with a summary of: 1) how military equipment was used and its purpose; 2) any complaints or concerns related to military equipment and any actions taken in response; 3) the total annual cost for each piece of military equipment; 4) how the funds were sourced; and 5) the quantity possessed for each type. Lastly, the presentation stated whether the Police Department intended to acquire additional military equipment in the current or following year, and the quantity sought for each type of equipment.

The Pacific Grove Police Department is currently in possession of:
(2) 40mm Projectile Launchers
(5) Less Lethal Shotguns
(27) Department Rifles
PGCC 4-15-26

Page 54 ends

(16) Issued Department Rifles
The Pacific Grove Police Department did not purchase any military equipment in 2025. The department must get approval from the City Council for any military equipment it owns. Currently, the Pacific Grove Police Department does not own or have any military equipment.

The Pacific Grove Police Department receives and provides mutual aid to and from all area law enforcement agencies, including participation in the Monterey Peninsula Special Response Unit, also known as SRU. Currently, no officers from the department are participating in SRU. SRU did not respond to any incidents in Pacific Grove during 2025.

CONCLUSION:

The Pacific Grove Police Department remains committed to transparency, accountability, and community engagement in compliance with AB 481. The department has fulfilled all statutory requirements by conducting a public presentation, providing detailed information regarding equipment use, costs, and oversight, and maintaining open communication with the community. With no military equipment purchases in 2025 and continued City Council oversight for any future acquisitions, the department continues to prioritize public trust, safety, and the protection of civil liberties.

Agenda No. 11 A

CITY OF PACIFIC GROVE
300 Forest Avenue, Pacific Grove, California 93950
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Jon Biggs, Community Development Director
MEETING DATE: April 15, 2026
SUBJECT: Proposed Amendments to the R-3, C-1, C-2, and R-3-M Zoning Regulations CEQA: Environmental Impact Report

RECOMMENDATION

1. Consider the Addendum to the Certified Environmental Impact Report (EIR); Introduce and hold first reading of an Ordinance Amending Chapters 23.24, 23.32, and 23.52 of Title 23, Zoning, of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code;

2. Direct that publication of the ordinance will be satisfied by publication of a summary approved by the City Attorney.

3. DISCUSSION

BACKGROUND
The City, its consultant team, and the citizens of Pacific Grove have been working on the Pacific Grove General Plan 6th Cycle, 2023-2031 Housing Element Update (HE) for several years. In November of 2025, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the HE and voted to adopt a resolution recommending approval of:

A resolution of the City Council certifying the Final EIR, A resolution of the City Council approving the “Project", which includes amending the text, policies, figures, and maps of the Pacific Grove General Plan to adopt the 2023-2031 Housing Element; amending the Land Use and Health and Safety Elements and the Land Use Map; adopting the CEQA Findings of Fact, including a Statement of Overriding Considerations; and adopting the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP), and
An ordinance of the City Council adopting amendments to Title 23, Zoning, of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code and the Zoning Map.

In December of 2025, the City Council agreed with the recommendation of the Planning Commission and certified the Program EIR prepared for the project, approved the Housing Element along with the other amendments to the City’s General Plan, and adopted amendments to the Zoning Code (Title 23 Zoning of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code) and amendments to the Land Use and Zoning maps.

Following approval of the Project by the City Council in December of 2025, the consultant team and staff submitted the approved housing element, rezonings and up-zonings to the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for certification review. In February of 2026, HCD informed the City that the rezonings do not meet all the statutory requirements pursuant to PGCC 4-15-26

Page 95 ends

Government Code section 65583.2, subdivision (h). Specifically, HCD noted that the C-1, C-2, and R-3 zones do not meet minimum density requirements and that revisions to rezoning will be necessary to comply with State Housing Element Law.

In order to address HCD’s concerns and achieve certification of the Housing Element, amendments to the City’s zoning regulations are proposed. The amendments include:

Addition of a minimum density requirement of 20 units per acre for multiple dwellings to Chapter 23.24 R-3 Districts of Title 23 Zoning of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code.

Addition of a minimum density requirement of 20 units per acre to Chapter 23.31 Commercial and Industrial Zoning Districts of Title 23 Zoning of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code.

One additional amendment to the zoning code being brought forward is the proposed restoration of inadvertently deleted words to Chapter 23.52 R-3-M Districts of Title 23 of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code.

Included with this agenda report are the following attachments:

Planning Commission Resolution of Recommendation to City Council Draft Addendum to the Final EIR

Diagram of the R-3, C-1, and C-2 Zone District Locations in the City Public Comment
Following is a more detailed discussion of the key elements of the Project.

DISCUSSION
Environmental Review
An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and a Mitigation and Monitoring and Reporting Plan (MMRP) were prepared for the Housing Element Update, including the Zoning Ordinance and General Plan Amendments, in accordance to Article 6, CCR Title 14, California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines and circulated to the State Clearinghouse (SCH#2024010897). On December 17, 2025, the City Council certified the final EIR and MMRP (Resolution No. 25 - 029). The proposed zoning amendments are consistent with the analysis and conclusions of the previously certified Final EIR.

Under CEQA, a lead agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary to the EIR but none of the conditions described in State CEQA Guidelines section 15162 calling for preparation for a subsequent EIR have occurred. (State CEQA Guidelines, §15164(a).) State CEQA Guidelines section 15162 provides that when an IS/MND has been certified for a project, a subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project if the lead agency determines one or more of the following have occurred:
(1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous IS/MND… due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous IS/MND… due to the involvement of PGCC 4-15-26

Page 96 ends

new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or
(3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous IS/MND was certified as complete … shows any of the following:
(A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous IS/MND; (B) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous IS/MND;
(C) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or (D) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous IS/MND would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.

Based on the analysis presented in the Addendum, none of the above have occurred and there is no substantial evidence in light of the whole record that the proposed modifications to the project would result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of a previously identified significant effect relative to the previously approved Housing Element Update Project EIR.

Additionally, there is no new information not previously known that shows new significant environmental effects or an increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. For these reasons, preparation of a supplemental or subsequent EIR is not required and an addendum is appropriate.

The EIR prepared for the Housing Element Update project can be reviewed and considered at the following link:Housing Element EIR
An addendum needs not be circulated for public review and can be attached to the EIR pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines, §15164(c).

Proposed Ordinance Amendments
In order to address HCD’s concerns and achieve certification of its Housing Element, an amendment to the rezoning is proposed. The amendment includes:

Addition of a minimum density requirement of 20 units per acre for multiple dwellings to Chapter 23.24 R-3 Districts of Title 23 Zoning of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code. The minimum density requirement of 20 units per acre has been included in a new subsection found at 23.24.052 Minimum density multiple dwellings Addition of a minimum density requirement of 20 units per acre to Chapter 23.31 Commercial and Industrial Zoning Districts of Title 23 Zoning of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code. The minimum density requirement of 20 units per acre has been included in the table at subsection 23.31.040 Commercial and industrial zoning districts development standards.

One additional amendment to the zoning code being brought forward is the proposed restoration of inadvertently deleted of words to Chapter 23.52 R-3-M Districts of Title 23 of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code. The restored words are underlined in the following:

23.52.030 (b) A minimum setback of 20 feet shall be required for all structures in a R-3-M development which abut R-1, R-H, or R-2 property, including streets abutting same. The setback shall be 10 feet for commercial or other R-3-M developments or districts. Eave projections may extend up to three feet into any required yard, but in no case may be closer than three feet to any property line.

The amendments to the R-3, C-1, and C-2 zone districts have been reviewed with HCD staff who PGCC 4-15-26

Page 97 ends

indicated during the meeting that they addressed the issues raised by HCD in its February 2026 letter. (Note that HCD has requested, and staff has provided, a schedule to achieve these code amendments so that it can track the City’s progress towards achieving a certified housing element) Analysis
The addition of minimum densities is intended to ensure that appropriate standards have been established to accommodate growth, or in this case, the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) of 1,125 units that have been assigned to Pacific Grove as part of this Housing Element Update. As HCD has indicated, they are a component of State housing laws, and the City is being required to include them in its rezoning so that certification of the City’s Housing Element can be obtained. The zoning amendments approved by the City Council in December 2025 did include minimum density requirements for the C-D and C-FH zone districts, which reflects a trend to include standards that promote housing development that help achieve the RHNA.

As for the restoration of words to subsection 23.52.030 (b), the change to this subsection in December of 2025 was an artifact from earlier rezoning drafts that were inadvertently left in the draft rezoning ordinance and without the restored words the sentence has little meaning; thus, it is appropriate to restore the words.

RECOMMENDATION
At a special meeting on March 26, 2026, the Planning Commission recommended that the City Council consider the Addendum to the Certified EIR and introduce the Ordinance Amending Chapters 23.24,

23.32, and 23.52 of Title 23, Zoning, of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code.

A resolution reflecting this recommendation was adopted by the Planning Commission and is included with this agenda report as attachment number one (1).

1 City of Pacific Grove Community Development Department Pacific Grove Housing Element Update March 2026 Addendum to the Housing Element Update Project EIR

1.0 INTRODUCTION
This document is an Addendum to the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) prepared for the City of Pacific Grove Housing Element Update (6th Cycle, 2023-2031) Project (Project), State Clearinghouse No. 2024010897, and has been prepared pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA; Pub.

Resources Code, §21000 et seq.). The project was approved and the EIR certified by the Pacific Grove City Council in December of 2025. Along with project approval and EIR certification, the Pacific Grove City Council adopted a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) as required by CEQA.

The approved project includes amendments to the Pacific Grove General Plan Housing Element, Land Use Element, Health and Safety Element, plus amendments to the General Plan Land Use Map, and Zoning Ordinance plus Zoning Map Amendments.

The purpose of the project is to create a housing element that addresses the City's fair share of the regional housing needs and meet specific state statutory requirements plus reflect the vision and priorities of the local community. In October 2022, the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments (AMBAG) adopted a RHNA plan, allocating 1,125 units for Pacific Grove, of which 599 units must be affordable to low-income or very low-income households. The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) requires local jurisdictions to identify sufficient housing sites to cover the jurisdiction’s 6th Cycle RHNA. HCD also recommends that jurisdictions provide additional buffer capacity above the RHNA. The “No Net Loss” law (Government Code Section 65863) requires maintenance of sufficient sites to meet the RHNA for all income levels throughout the planning period. When accounting for pending and approved projects, estimated development of accessory dwelling units, and a 20 percent buffer to facilitate compliance with the “No Net Loss” law, the City must demonstrate its ability to allow for the development of 999 housing units
The City has prepared this Addendum to Housing Element Project EIR to address direction from the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to include minimum density requirements for the C-1, C-2, and R-3 zone districts and, of its own initiative, to restore the inadvertent deletion of words in the R-3-M Zone District.

In accordance with CEQA, this Addendum describes the previously approved Project and provides an explanation of the decision not to prepare a subsequent EIR pursuant to Section 15152 of the State of California CEQA Guidelines.

For the reasons presented below, the proposed addition of minimum densities to the C-1, C-2, and R-3 plus the restoration of words inadvertently deleted in the R-3-M zoning district regulations in a prior zoning code amendment will not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects and, therefore, the modifications to the previously approved Project does not trigger the need for further environmental analysis in a subsequent or supplemental EIR under the requirements of CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, §15000 et seq.).

1.1 SUPPLEMENTAL OR SUBSEQUENT INITIAL STUDY NOT REQUIRED Under CEQA, a lead agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary to the EIR but none of the conditions described in State CEQA Guidelines section 15162 calling for preparation for a subsequent EIR have occurred. (State CEQA Guidelines, §15164(a).) State CEQA Guidelines section 15162 provides that when an IS/MND has been certified for a project, a subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project if the lead agency determines one or more of the following have occurred:
(1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous IS/MND… due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; PGCC 4-15-26

Page 107 ends

2 City of Pacific Grove Community Development Department Pacific Grove Housing Element Update March 2026 Addendum to the Housing Element Update Project EIR (2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous IS/MND… due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or
(3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous IS/MND was certified as complete … shows any of the following:
(A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous IS/MND…; (B) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous IS/MND;
(C) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or (D) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous IS/MND would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.

As explained below in Section 2.0, there is no substantial evidence in light of the whole record that the proposed revisions to the Project would result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of a previously identified significant effect. Additionally, there is no new information not previously known that shows new significant environmental effects or an increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. For these reasons, preparation of an addendum is appropriate under these circumstances.

An addendum need not be circulated for public review and can be attached to the EIR pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines, §15164(c).

2.0 ANALYSIS
This section describes the previously approved Housing Element Update Project and the proposed modifications to the zoning regulations. Following the project description, the section provides support for the decision to prepare an addendum to the certified EIR for the Project.

2.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The approved project is the City of Pacific Grove Housing Element Update, Zoning Ordinance Amendments, General Plan Amendments and amendments to the General Plan Land Use and Zoning maps.

The “Housing Element Update” encompasses the 6th Cycle Housing Element. The “Zoning Ordinance Amendments” covers rezonings and up-zonings determined to be necessary as a result of the Housing Element Update, additional rezonings proposed by the City, and the inclusion of objective design standards.

The “General Plan Amendments” encompass updates to the Health and Safety Element and Land Use Element of the General Plan.

Following approval of the Project by the City Council in December of 2025, the consultant team and staff submitted the approved housing element, rezonings and up-zonings to HCD for certification review. In February of 2026, HCD informed the City that the rezonings do not meet all the statutory requirements pursuant to Government Code section 65583.2, subdivision (h). Specifically, HCD noted that the C-1, C-2, and R-3 zones do not meet minimum density requirements and that revisions to rezoning will be necessary to comply with State Housing Element Law.

3 City of Pacific Grove Community Development Department Pacific Grove Housing Element Update March 2026 Addendum to the Housing Element Update Project EIR In order to address HCD’s concerns and achieve certification of its Housing Element, an amendment to the rezoning is proposed. The zoning amendments includes:
 Addition of a minimum density requirement of 20 units per acre for multiple dwellings to Chapter

23.24 R-3 Districts of Title 23 Zoning of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code.  Addition of a minimum density requirement of 20 units per acre to Chapter 23.31 Commercial and Industrial Zoning Districts of Title 23 Zoning of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code.

One additional amendment to the zoning code being brought forward by the City is the proposed restoration of inadvertently deleted of words to Chapter 23.52 R-3-M Districts of Title 23 of the Pacific Grove Municipal Code.

The proposed rezoning amendments would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects beyond those previously identified in the EIR.

2.2 SUPPORT FOR ADDENDUM TO EIR
The Project in and of itself does not develop housing. It is a plan to provide for the possibility of housing, supported by consistent zoning standards. It is assumed that not all housing would realistically be built, based on previous development history in Pacific Grove, as housing development is mainly accomplished by the private sector and depends upon factors the City does not control, including financial resources, market trends, and other factors. However, for the purposes of this CEQA analysis, the program-level EIR analyzed all the possible potential growth facilitated by the Project.

The EIR analyzed a net increase of 2,335 new housing units and 292,578 commercial square feet. As described in Section 2.6.1, Housing Element Update, the Site Inventory represents a “realistic” buildout, primarily assuming site residential buildout of up to 70 percent of the maximum allowable density. In contrast, the growth projections provided in Table ES-1 and analyzed throughout this EIR assume a residential buildout of up to 100 percent of the maximum density. Growth projections analyzed in the EIR reflect varying levels of commercial buildout based on recent market and redevelopment trends in the city and region. This approach allowed for more conservative and comprehensive analysis. As such, the EIR used these figures to calculate and determine potential environmental impacts. In addition, because the EIR assumed a residential buildout of up to 100 percent of the maximum density, it evaluated additional housing units facilitated by Housing Element programs beyond those needed to meet the RHNA.

The EIR identified a maximum buildout for the project, which is a conservative assumption developed for the analysis of the environmental impacts. Overall, maximum growth is dependent on multiple factors, including local economic conditions, market demand, and other financing considerations. As discussed in Chapter 2 of the EIR, Project Description, in a maximum growth scenario, the Project is anticipated to facilitate development of up to approximately 2,335 new housing units.

It was the analysis of the maximum allowed buildout in the EIR that identified potential impacts of the Project, some of which were mitigated to a less than significant level, while some impacts were found to be significant and unavoidable for which the City Council adopted findings of overriding consideration.

Since the addition of minimum densities to the R-3, C-1, and C-2 zone districts does not increase the buildout potential in the City, their impacts will not exceed those identified in the EIR and the inclusion of minimum densities in the C-D and C-FH (30 units per acre) in the original Project did not modify the full buildout analysis. Thus, the addition of minimum densities in the R-3, C-1, and C-2 zone districts will PGCC 4-15-26

Page 109 ends

4 City of Pacific Grove Community Development Department Pacific Grove Housing Element Update March 2026 Addendum to the Housing Element Update Project EIR not result in an increase in buildout potential or a need to evaluate impacts beyond those of the EIR certified by the City Council.

In addition, the restoration of some words inadvertently deleted in the R-3-M zone district does not have the potential to increase the severity of significant effects identified in the certified EIR; thus, this addendum to that EIR is appropriate.

2.3 CONCLUSION
Based on the analysis presented above, there is no substantial evidence in light of the whole record that the proposed modifications to the project would result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of a previously identified significant effect relative to the previously approved Housing Element Update Project EIR. Additionally, there is no new information not previously known that shows new significant environmental effects or an increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. For these reasons, preparation of a supplemental or subsequent EIR is not required and an addendum is appropriate.

Sections:

23.31.010 Purpose.

23.31.020 Commercial and industrial zoning districts.

23.31.025 C-V-ATC zoning district – American Tin Cannery zoning.

23.31.030 Commercial and industrial zoning districts allowable land uses and permit requirements.

23.31.040 Commercial and industrial zoning districts development standards.

23.31.010 Purpose.

This chapter lists the commercial and industrial zoning districts as established by PGMC 23.12.010 and establishes the development standards and types of land uses permitted in each commercial and industrial zoning district. [Ord. 13-003 § 2, 2013].

23.31.020 Commercial and industrial zoning districts.
(a) Light Commercial (C-1). The C-1 zoning district provides for neighborhood scale and locally oriented retail, service, office uses, as well as residential uses. (b) Light Commercial and Hotel (C-1-T). The C-1-T zoning district was enacted by citizen initiative, and the standards of the district are included in the applicable sections of this chapter without modification from the initiative.
(1) Intent of District. The intent of the C-1-T district as described by the initiative is as follows:
(A) It is the intent of the people of the city of Pacific Grove in enacting the ordinance codified in this chapter to establish a zone district in the city’s downtown area where hotel use is permitted, as are all other uses listed in the C-1 district of this code, as said district may be from time to time amended by the council. The people have determined that the area of downtown defined by subsection (b)(2) of this section is appropriate for hotel development. Further, except as modified by this chapter, all provisions of the motel/hotel regulation ballot measure enacted by the people at the June 3, 1986, special municipal election, as set out at Chapter 23.52 PGMC, shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
(B) It is also the intent of the people of the city of Pacific Grove in enacting the ordinance codified in this chapter to provide for an exception to the strict regulations governing condominium development at Chapter 23.45 PGMC, said section enacted by the people at an election held in the city on November 2, 1982. The people have determined that the area of the downtown defined in subsection (b)(2) of this section is appropriate for condominium development in a manner less restrictive than defined by regulations set out in Chapter 23.45 PGMC. Further, except as modified by this chapter, the provisions of Chapter 23.45 PGMC shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
(2) Boundaries of District. The C-1-T district shall be that area defined by the block bounded by Lighthouse Avenue, Grand Avenue, Central Avenue and Fountain Avenue. (3) Amendment. No provision of the C-1-T zoning district shall be repealed or amended except by a vote of the people.
(c) Downtown Commercial (C-D). The C-D zoning district is intended to provide for a range of uses including retail, restaurants, services, entertainment, and upper floor residential, and other compatible uses which enhance the vitality and character of the city’s historic commercial core.

(f) Visitor Commercial (C-V). The C-V zoning district is applied to areas of the city appropriate for retail sales, commercial services, and institutional uses oriented to tourism. (g) Restricted Industrial (I). The I zoning district is applied to areas of the city that are appropriate for limited commercial uses, service commercial and light manufacturing uses, which may involve outdoor storage or activity areas. [Ord. 13-003 § 2, 2013].

23.31.025 C-V-ATC zoning district – American Tin Cannery zoning. (a) Boundaries of District. The C-V-ATC zoning district shall apply to the American Tin Cannery site that is comprised of Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 006-231-001, 006-234-004, and 006-234-005 and that segment of Sloat Avenue that is continuous to the American Tin Cannery site.

(1) Hotels and any accessory uses, such as restaurants, bars and lounges, meeting and event facilities, spa and fitness facilities, parking, and buildings, spaces, and structures incidental to such uses, subject to first securing a use permit.
(2) All uses that are permitted in the C-V zoning district and additional uses permitted by subsequent amendment to the zoning ordinance.
(c) Development Standards. Development standards in the C-V-ATC zoning district, including floor area coverage, density, setbacks and height limits shall be in accordance with the applicable standards set forth in the local Coastal Program Land Use Plan, as updated or amended, or if no such standards are provided in the local coastal Program Land Use Plan, as updated or amended, in accordance with the standards set forth in the use permit or other required permit for a use allowed in the C-V-ATC zoning district.
(d) Except as modified by this section, all provisions of the motel/hotel regulation ballot measure enacted by the people at the June 3, 1986, special election, as set out at Chapter 23.52 PGMC, shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect. [Ord. 16-009A § 1, 2016].

Sections:

23.52.010 Regulations generally.

23.52.020 Uses permitted.

23.52.030 Regulations for R-3-M uses.

23.52.035 Special regulations for motels and hotels built prior to 1986.

23.52.050 Other provisions.

23.52.060 Amendment.

23.52.010 Regulations generally.

Effective the date of the adoption of the ordinance codified in this section by the city council or by the voters of the city of Pacific Grove, the regulations of the ordinance codified in this section shall apply in the R-3-M district in lieu of any ordinance or resolution to the contrary:
(a) The R-3-M district is defined as those areas so designated on the official zoning map of the city of Pacific Grove referred to in PGMC 23.12.020. Said districts may be classified by the city council to R-1, R-H, or R-2, where already developed as such, but no new R-3-M districts shall be created. (b) Motel and hotel uses shall be restricted to the R-3-M district, including any uses accessory or ancillary to a motel. The ordinance codified in this section shall also apply to any use described in PGMC

23.52.020 proposed for the construction or expansion in any R-3-M district, including uses accessory or ancillary to such use. [Ord. 1536 N.S. § 2, 1986].

23.52.020 Uses permitted.

The following uses are permitted in the R-3-M districts:
(a) Any use permitted in the R-3 district, subject to obtaining a use permit for any use for which such is required in an R-3 district;
(b) Motels, subject to first securing a use permit in each case; (c) Hotels, subject to first securing a use permit in each case; (d) Adult communities, retirement homes and rest homes, subject to first securing a use permit in each case. [Ord. 575 N.S., 1967; Ord. 453 N.S., 1964; Ord. 263 N.S., 1955; Ord. 210 N.S. § 11-139(1)(a), 1952].

23.52.030 Regulations for R-3-M uses.
(a) A minimum of 2,500 square feet of land shall be required for each family unit and each motel or hotel unit. For other uses described in PGMC 23.52.020(d), the planning commission and/or city council shall determine the amount of land area per occupied unit by judging its similarity to a family unit or motel unit in actual use and impact. For example, a rest home affording separate apartments and parking facilities would be judged a family unit; a hotel which offers amenities identical or substantially similar to a motel would be judged a motel. In no event shall less than 2,000 square feet per occupied unit be allowed, for any PGMC 23.52.020(d) use.
(b) A minimum setback of 20 feet shall be required for all structures in a R-3-M development which abut R-1, R-H, or R-2 property, including streets abutting same. The setback shall be 10 feet for commercial or other R-3-M developments or districts. Eave projections may extend up to three feet into any required yard, but in no case may be closer than three feet to any property line.

(c) The height of the structures shall not exceed 25 feet nor two stories above grade. The height shall be one story above grade and not more than 18 feet where the R-3-M property, or any portion thereof, is within 200 feet of any portion of any property zoned R-1, R-H, or R-2. (d) The architectural review board, the planning commission and/or the city council shall require the configuration and layout of structures so as to assure that residential areas are not impacted by guest activities such as registration, parking, food and beverage services. Said bodies shall require a design which blends with the residential neighborhood and minimizes the nonresidential impact and use.

Appropriate landscaping shall be required throughout the site. Setback areas shall be landscaped and shall not be used for automobile parking, or storage of any kind. Access to the site, where feasible, shall be from a street and/or driveway which does not abut said residential areas. (e) Wood-burning fireplaces and wood-burning heaters shall be limited to the rate of six per acre, and any additional fireplaces shall be limited to natural gas fireplace inserts. (f) Any use permit for new construction or other activity resulting in an increase in the number of units or the amount of floor space shall expire one year from its issuance unless construction of the project for which the permit was issued is substantially complete.
(g) Uses which do not conform hereto as of the date of publication of the notice of intention to circulate the petition for the ordinance codified in this section may continue if legally installed prior thereto. Any expansion or alteration of such existing nonconforming use shall require complete compliance herewith for the entire use. The conversion of sliding doors to swinging doors, and similar changes, are not considered an expansion or alteration.
(h) Variances and/or exceptions hereto shall not be granted, except upon strict compliance with state and local law governing such. No variance or exception shall be granted on the basis of failure of opposition thereto.
(i) Any R-3-M district property shall be deemed to be upon a street which abuts or abutting to R-1, R-H, or R-2 property, whenever any part of the R-3-M property is within 20 feet of the abutting street or the R-1, R-H or R-2 property. [Amended by vote of the people on November 8, 2011, general election; Res. 11- 061 § 4, 2011; Res. 11-060 § 4.1, 2011; Ord. 1536 N.S. § 3, 1986].

23.52.035 Special regulations for motels and hotels built prior to 1986.

This section modifies the development standards in PGMC 23.52.030 for R-3-M motels and hotels built prior to the adoption of Ordinance No. 1536, in order to enable and encourage hoteliers to upgrade and modernize their businesses to stay competitive. Where this section differs from PGMC 23.52.030, the provisions of this section shall take precedence. Where this section is silent on a provision that is in PGMC 23.52.030, the provision in PGMC 23.52.030 shall apply. (a) Motels and hotels built prior to 1986 are categorized into groups and are allowed additional guest units over the number of permitted guest units, as of the effective date of this section, as follows:

1 Group A – Motels and hotels where the number of permitted guest units, as of the effective date of this section, is less than 170 percent of the 1:2,500 density ratio in PGMC 23.52.030(a). Motels and hotels in Group A may construct additional guest units or ancillary facilities by conversion of existing buildings or by new construction. 2 Group B – Motels and hotels where the number of permitted guest units, as of the effective date of this section, is greater than 170 percent, but less than 250 percent, of the 1:2,500 density ratio in PGMC 23.52.030(a). Motels and hotels in Group B may construct additional guest units or ancillary facilities by conversion of existing buildings only. 3 Group C – Motels and hotels where the number of permitted guest units, as of the effective date of this section, is greater than 250 percent of the 1:2,500 density ratio in PGMC 23.52.030(a). Motels and hotels in Group C may not construct any additional guest units.
(b) For motels and hotels in Group A, each new guest unit shall be a maximum size of 360 square feet.

Since new guest units in Group B motels and hotels must be created by conversion of existing buildings, they may conceivably be greater than 360 square feet in size. No existing guest unit that is less than 360 square feet, as of the effective date of this section, may be enlarged to exceed 360 square feet in size.

No existing guest unit that is 360 square feet or more in size, as of the effective date of this section, shall be enlarged.
(c) Motels and hotels in Group A may use up to three of the additional guest units allowed to instead create a new ancillary facility (e.g., meeting space, dining room, fitness facility), with a maximum size of 1,080 square feet (or 360 square feet for each additional guest unit substituted). Motels and hotels in Groups B and C may create new ancillary facilities only through conversion of existing buildings and are not limited in size.
(d) For motels and hotels in Group A, the setback requirements of PGMC 23.52.030(b) shall also apply to new guest units or new ancillary facilities that abut any public street or any single-family residence.

PGCC 4-15-26

Pacific Grove Municipal Code
Chapter 23.52 R-3-M DISTRICTS

Page 18 ends

(e) For motels and hotels in Group A, building height is two stories and not more than 25 feet for new guest units that are at least 50 feet from any property zoned R-1, R-H, or R-2, any public street, and any single-family residence. Building height is one story and not more than 18 feet for new guest units that are at least 20 feet from any property zoned R-1, R-H, or R-2, any public street, and any single-family residence. For property lines of Group A motels and hotels that do not abut any property zoned R-1, R-H, or R-2, a public street, nor single-family residence, building height for new guest units may be two stories and up to 25 feet within 10 feet of the property line. New ancillary facilities in Group A motels and hotels may be one story, with a maximum building height of 18 feet. (f) For motels and hotels in Groups A and B, the following additional requirements apply to new construction or conversion of existing buildings:
(1) A use permit approval is required. As part of this review, the planning commission may impose specific standards pertaining to building design (e.g., building mass, bulk, height, and wall articulation), outdoor lighting, driveway locations, parking areas, landscaping, signs, street dedication, and related public improvements, upon finding that such requirements are necessary to meet the intent of the R-3-M district.
(2) No outdoor living areas are allowed within setbacks abutting residential zones or residential uses.

This includes balconies, decks, open porches, patios, or similar outdoor guest activity areas. (3) Existing landscaping requirements in PGMC 23.52.030 are expanded to require that within setback areas adjacent to the new development or building conversion, especially abutting residential zones and residential uses, plantings include numerous trees, shrubs and plants that will reduce visual and noise impacts of the motel or hotel use on adjacent properties. (4) New guest units do not have to be built at one time, but may be developed in phases. (5) All other R-3-M standards shall apply including, but not limited to, parking and building coverage.

New guest units and ancillary facilities must have available water. (g) For motels and hotels in Groups A, B and C, a nonconforming building damaged or destroyed by catastrophic event or demolished under any other circumstance may be rebuilt to the condition or configuration of the building that existed immediately prior to the event or demolition, as long as the reconstruction is carried out in a manner consistent with PGMC 23.68.040. While reconstruction to preexisting conditions is allowed, elimination of nonconformities is encouraged. Reconstructed one-story buildings may be built to a maximum height of 18 feet, regardless of the pre-existing building height. (h) For motels and hotels in Groups A, B and C, exterior remodeling within the existing footprint of a nonconforming building may retain existing nonconformities as long as the remodel does not:
(1) Extend or expand an existing nonconformity;
(2) Add any new nonconformity; or
(3) Adversely affect the privacy of adjacent residential-zoned property or residential uses. (i) No other reconstruction or remodeling may take place, beyond what is allowed in this section for motels and hotels in Groups A, B and C, without bringing the entire property into conformance with PGMC 23.52.030. [Added by vote of the people on November 8, 2011, general election; Res. 11-061 § 4, 2011; Res. 11-060 § 4.2, 2011].

23.52.040 Statement of intent.

It is the intention of the ordinance codified in this section to preserve the essential residential character of the city, and the residential appearance of the city, and to prevent the adverse impacts of such from developments in the R-3-M districts. [Ord. 1536 N.S. § 4, 1986].

[NOTICE: This message originated outside of the City of Pacific Grove email system -- DO NOT CLICK on links or open attachments unless you are sure the content is safe.] Dear Members of the Pacific Grove Planning Commission,
Thank you for your continued work on the proposed amendments to the City’s zoning regulations. I appreciate the Commission’s commitment to thoughtful planning and welcome the opportunity to offer a perspective I hope you will find useful as deliberations continue.

I write to draw your attention to a gap in the current public comment process: prospective residents — those who hope to one day live in Pacific Grove but do not yet do so — have no practical avenue to participate. This matters because the proposed zoning amendments will directly shape housing availability and affordability in the city for years to come. The people most affected by limited housing supply are often the very people who have not yet been able to move here.

Zoning decisions are among the most consequential a city can make for housing outcomes. Restrictions that reduce density or limit new construction can, over time, raise the cost of housing and reduce the range of people who are able to call Pacific Grove home. Those prospective residents — workers, families, and others who would like to join this community — have a genuine stake in these decisions, yet the standard comment process relies on residency and physical presence in ways that exclude them entirely.

I respectfully encourage the Commission to consider the following:
∙ Accepting written public comment submitted via email or the City’s online portal from nonresidents who can demonstrate a connection to or interest in living in Pacific Grove. ∙ Actively publicizing the comment period through regional channels — such as Monterey County housing organizations, workforce networks, and local media — to reach people who are not yet residents but who are affected by Pacific Grove’s housing policies. ∙ Weighing, as part of its analysis, the downstream effects of the proposed amendments on housing availability and affordability for those not yet able to participate in the process.

I recognize that the Commission operates within established procedural frameworks, and I am not suggesting those be set aside. Rather, I hope the Commission will consider broadening its lens to include the voices and interests of future community members alongside those of current residents.

Thank you for your service to Pacific Grove and for taking this perspective into consideration. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this further.

Respectfully,
Peter Nodzenski
Pacific Grove
