Please Note: The APCD recently updated the Land Use and CEQA Webpage on the slocleanair.org website.
The information on the webpage displays the most up-to-date guidance from the SLO County APCD, including the 2023 CEQA GHG Guidance & Threshold Recommendations, Quick Guide for Construction Mitigation Measures and Quick Guide for Operational Mitigation Measures. (1) General Comments
Nuisance Odors from Wineries
Wine production facilities can generate nuisance odors during various steps of the process. Proven methods for handling wastewater discharge and grape skin waste need to be incorporated into the winery practices to reduce off-site odor. Odor complaints could result in a violation of the SLO County APCD Rule 402, Nuisance.
Construction Permit Requirements
Based on the information provided, we are unsure of the types of equipment that may be present during the project’s construction phase. Portable equipment, 50 horsepower (hp) or greater, used during construction activities may require a California statewide portable equipment registration (issued by the California Air Resources Board) or an APCD permit. The following list is provided as a guide to equipment and operations that may have permitting requirements but should not be viewed as exclusive:
• Power screens, conveyors, diesel engines, and/or crushers; • Portable generators and equipment with engines that are 50 hp or greater; • Electrical generation plants or the use of standby generators; • Internal combustion engines; and
• Tub grinders
For a more detailed listing, refer to the Technical Appendices, page 4-4, in the APCD's CEQA Air Quality Handbook.
Operational Permit Requirements
Based on the information provided, we are unsure of the types of equipment that may be present at the site. Operational sources may require APCD permits. The following list is provided as a guide to equipment and operations that may have permitting requirements but should not be viewed as exclusive:
• New wineries or expanding wineries with the capacity of 26,000 gallons (10,000 cases at twelve 750 milliliter bottles per case) year or more require a Permit to Operate for fermentation and storage of wine;
• Portable generators and equipment with engines that are 50 hp or greater; • Any stationary or portable agricultural engine over 50 hp; • Electrical generation plants or the use of standby generators; • Food and beverage preparation (primarily coffee roasters); • Furniture and fixture products;

APCD Comments Regarding MND for the Proposed Paso Robles Covelop Project October 9, 2023
For a more detailed listing, refer to the Technical Appendix, page 4-4, in the APCD's CEQA Air Quality Handbook. For information on how to apply for an APCD Authority to Construct or Permit to Operate, click here. Note: Most facilities applying for an Authority to Construct or Permit to Operate with stationary diesel engines greater than 50 hp, should be prioritized or screened for facility wide health risk impacts. A diesel engine-only facility limited to 20 non-emergency operating hours per year or has demonstrated to have overall diesel particulate emissions less than or equal to 2 lb/yr does not need to complete an additional health risk assessment.
(2) Air Quality
CONSTRUCTION PHASE
Construction Phase Impacts - Exceeds Threshold(s)
The APCD evaluated the construction impacts of this project using the most recent CalEEMod computer model and the inputs the applicant used. The modeling results indicate that the construction phase impacts will likely exceed the APCD’s significance threshold values identified in Table 2-1 of the CEQA Air Quality Handbook. However, APCD was able to model ROG plus NOx emissions below the APCD Quarterly Tier 2 threshold of 6.3 tons of ozone precursors/quarter.
APCD’s results were close to the applicants modeling results when a “Use Low VOC paint” mitigation measure was included.
Therefore, APCD recommends that the City of Paso Robles add a mitigation measure that the project’s construction phase will either use low VOC paints (50 g of VOC per liter or lower) or source prefabricated/painted project materials to ensure the project is beneath the APCD’s ozone precursor quarterly threshold.
Standard Mitigation Measures for Construction Equipment This project exceeds the following threshold; therefore the project’s construction phase shall implement Standard Construction Mitigation Measures:
• Exceeds ROG+NOx Quarterly Tier 1 threshold
Standard Mitigation Measures include, but are not limited to:
• Maintain all construction equipment in proper tune according to manufacturer’s specifications;
• Fuel all off-road and portable diesel powered equipment with CARB certified motor vehicle diesel fuel (non-taxed version suitable for use off-road); • Use diesel construction equipment meeting CARB's Tier 2 certified engines or cleaner offroad heavy-duty diesel engines, and comply with the State Off-Road Regulation; • Use on-road heavy-duty trucks that meet the CARB’s 2010 or cleaner certification standard for on-road heavy-duty diesel engines, and comply with the State On-Road Regulation; • Construction or trucking companies with fleets that that do not have engines in their fleet that meet the engine standards identified in the above two measures (e.g. captive or NOx exempt area fleets) may be eligible by proving alternative compliance; • All on and off-road diesel equipment shall not idle for more than 5-minutes. Signs shall be posted in the designated queuing areas and or job sites to remind drivers and operators of the 5-minute idling limit;
• Diesel idling within 1,000 feet of sensitive receptors is not permitted; Attachment 4
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
APCD Comments Regarding MND for the Proposed Paso Robles Covelop Project October 9, 2023
• Staging and queuing areas shall not be located within 1,000 feet of sensitive receptors; • Electrify equipment when feasible;
• Substitute gasoline-powered in place of diesel-powered equipment, where feasible; and, • Use alternatively fueled construction equipment on-site, such as compressed natural gas (CNG), liquefied natural gas (LNG), propane or biodiesel.
Fugitive Dust Mitigation Measures: Expanded List
Construction activities can generate fugitive dust, which could be a nuisance to residents and businesses in close proximity to the proposed construction site. Projects with grading areas more than 4 acres and/or within 1,000 feet of any sensitive receptor shall implement the following mitigation measures to manage fugitive dust emissions such that they do not exceed the APCD 20% opacity limit (APCD Rule 401) and minimize nuisance (APCD Rule 402) impacts:
a. Reduce the amount of the disturbed area where possible; b. Use of water trucks or sprinkler systems in sufficient quantities to prevent airborne dust from leaving the site and from exceeding the APCD’s limit of 20% opacity for greater than 3 minutes in any 60-minute period. Increased watering frequency would be required whenever wind speeds exceed 15 mph. Reclaimed (non-potable) water should be used whenever possible. When drought conditions exist and water use is a concern, the contractor or builder should consider use of a dust suppressant that is effective for the specific site conditions to reduce the amount of water used for dust control. Please refer to the following link from the San Joaquin Valley Air District for a list of potential dust suppressants: Products Available for Controlling Dust;
c. All stockpiled dirt should be sprayed daily and covered with tarps or other dust barriers as needed;
d. All roadways, driveways, sidewalks, etc. to be paved should be completed as soon as possible, and building pads should be laid as soon as possible after grading unless seeding, soil binders or other dust controls are used;
e. All trucks hauling dirt, sand, soil, or other loose materials are to be covered or should maintain at least two feet of freeboard (minimum vertical distance between top of load and top of trailer) or otherwise comply with California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 23114; f. “Track-Out” is defined as sand or soil that adheres to and/or agglomerates on the exterior surfaces of motor vehicles and/or equipment (including tires) that may then fall onto any highway or street as described in CVC Section 23113 and California Water Code 13304. To prevent ‘track out’, designate access points and require all employees, subcontractors, and others to use them. Install and operate a ‘track-out prevention device’ where vehicles enter and exit unpaved roads onto paved streets. The ‘track-out prevention device’ can be any device or combination of devices that are effective at preventing track out, located at the point of intersection of an unpaved area and a paved road. Rumble strips or steel plate devices need periodic cleaning to be effective. If paved roadways accumulate tracked out soils, the track-out prevention device may need to be modified; g. All fugitive dust mitigation measures shall be shown on grading and building plans; h. The contractor or builder shall designate a person or persons whose responsibility is to ensure any fugitive dust emissions do not result in a nuisance and to enhance the implementation of the mitigation measures as necessary to minimize dust complaints and reduce visible emissions below the APCD’s limit of 20% opacity for greater than 3 minutes in any 60-minute period. Their duties shall include holidays and weekend periods when work may not be in progress (for example, wind-blown dust could be generated on an open dirt Attachment 4
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
APCD Comments Regarding MND for the Proposed Paso Robles Covelop Project October 9, 2023
lot). The name and telephone number of such persons shall be provided to the APCD Compliance Division prior to the start of any grading, earthwork, or demolition (Contact the Compliance Division at 805-781-5912).
i. Permanent dust control measures identified in the approved project revegetation and landscape plans should be implemented as soon as possible, following completion of any soil disturbing activities;
j. Exposed ground areas that are planned to be reworked at dates greater than one month after initial grading should be sown with a fast germinating, non-invasive grass seed and watered until vegetation is established;
k. All disturbed soil areas not subject to revegetation should be stabilized using approved chemical soil binders, jute netting, or other methods approved in advance by the APCD; l. Vehicle speed for all construction vehicles shall not exceed 15 mph on any unpaved surface at the construction site;
m. Sweep streets at the end of each day if visible soil material is carried onto adjacent paved roads. Water sweepers shall be used with reclaimed water where feasible. Roads shall be pre-wetted prior to sweeping when feasible; and
n. Take additional measures as needed to ensure dust from the project site is not impacting areas outside the project boundary.
OPERATIONAL PHASE
Operational Phase Impacts - Below Threshold
Based on the APCD’s operational phase emission estimates using the most recent CalEEMod computer model, the operational phase would likely be less than the APCD’s significance threshold values identified in Table 3-2 of the CEQA Air Quality Handbook.
(3) Greenhouse Gas Emissions
The project proponent evaluated the greenhouse gas (GHG) impacts of this project using the most recent CalEEMod computer model with the results included in Table L of the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND). The applicant incorrectly amortized the Operation emissions of 1,875 MT carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e)/year, instead of the overall construction emissions of 1,124 MT CO2e over the four years of construction. Commercial projects use a 25-year project life for amortized construction emissions resulting in 45 MT CO2e/yr to be added to the operational phase emissions.
The applicant removed unnecessary refrigerant emissions (736 MT CO2e/yr) from the total operational emissions (1,875 MT CO2e/yr ) for a total of 1,139 MT CO2e/yr. APCD added the applicant’s Operational emissions to the amortized Construction phase emissions resulting in 1,184 MT CO2e/yr.
The 1,184 MT CO2e per year exceeds the potential interim GHG threshold of 690 metric tons of CO2e emissions per year the city may find to be applicable for this project. However, when APCD re-ran CalEEmod using Central Coast Community Energy as the energy supplier, the result was 720 MT CO2e. Using the following mitigation measures, the project proponent could achieve a reduction in greenhouse gas reductions below 690 metric tons of CO2e per year:
Attachment 4
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
APCD Comments Regarding MND for the Proposed Paso Robles Covelop Project October 9, 2023
• The applicant commit to the project receiving power from Central Coast Community Energy;
• Construct the project with adequate electrical panel capacity to support an all-electric retrofit of the development; and
• Construct project to improve on CALGreen electric vehicle (EV) capable standards by making parking spaces EV ready instead, thus supporting the transition to electric transportation.

Re: Comment on Mitigated Negative Declaration for CoVelop Industrial Project (SCH No. 2023090132, Planned Development 22-20, Oak Tree Removal 23-11, Vesting Tentative Parcel Map PR22-0054, and CUP 23- 14) and Planning Commission Agenda Item 1 (Tues., October 10, 2023) Dear Chair Neel, Honorable Planning Commissioners of Paso Robles, and Mr. Nash:
This comment is submitted on behalf of Supporters Alliance For Environmental Responsibility (“SAFER”) regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration (“MND”) prepared for the CoVelop Industrial Project (SCH 2023090132), which proposes the development of six commercial/light industrial buildings totaling 240,327 square feet and removal of six oak trees at 2930 Union Road (APN: 025-362-043) in the City of Paso Robles (“Project”).
SAFER is concerned that the MND is improper under the California Environmental Quality Act because there is a fair argument that the Project may have adverse environmental impacts that must be analyzed and mitigated in an environmental impact report (“EIR). The construction of the project necessitates removal of six ecologically-important native valley oaks and eliminates potential habitat for the protected San Joaquin Kit Fox, a species currently endangered primarily due to habitat loss as a result of land conversion and development. SAFER requests that an environmental impact report be prepared for the Project rather than an MND to ensure that potentially significant impacts of this Project are fully disclosed, analyzed, and mitigated.

WHEREAS, a public hearing was conducted by the Planning Commission on October 10, 2023 to consider the Final MND and the MMRP prepared for the proposed project, and to accept public testimony and written comments on the Development Plan, Oak Tree Removal Permit, Vesting Tentative Parcel Map, and Conditional Use Permit; at the close of this public hearing, the Planning Commission recommended, on a 5-0 vote (two Commissioners were absent), that the City Council adopt the MND, the MMRP, and the proposed Project with the addition of conditions of approval to address the APCD letter; and
WHEREAS, a copy of the Final MND is included in Exhibit A of this resolution; and WHEREAS, a public hearing was conducted by the City Council on November 7, 2023, to consider the Final MND and MMRP prepared for the proposed project, and to accept public testimony on the Development Plan, Oak Tree Removal Permit, Vesting Tentative Parcel Map, and Conditional Use Permit; and WHEREAS, on November 7, 2023 just prior to the start of the City Council meeting information was provided by Lozeau Drury, LLP, on behalf of SAFER, indicting concerns with the project MND; and WHEREAS, on 5-0 vote the City Council unanimously continued the item to the December 5, 2023, City Council agenda to allow staff and the applicant time to review the information provided from SAFER; and WHEREAS on December 5, 2023, the City Council continued the item to a date uncertain; and WHEREAS, on January 31, 2023, the City Clerk received a letter from Lozeau Drury, LLP, withdrawing the previous comments on the MND for the project, indicating that SAFER and the applicants have reached an agreement resolving the issues raised in their comments on the project.
WHEREAS, the project was duly noticed for the February 20, 2024 City Council Agenda; and WHEREAS, a public hearing was conducted by the City Council on February 20, 2024, to consider the Final MND and MMRP prepared for the proposed project, and to accept public testimony on the Development Plan, Oak Tree Removal Permit, Vesting Tentative Parcel Map, and Conditional Use Permit; and WHEREAS, based on the information and analysis contained in the Final MND prepared for this Project and testimony received as a result of the public notice, the Planning Commission recommends the City Council find there is no substantial evidence supporting a fair argument that there would be a significant impact on the environment, with the mitigation measures imposed on the Project; and WHEREAS, pursuant to CEQA, the City Council has independently reviewed the Final MND, and all comments received regarding the Final MND, and neither additional information submitted to the City nor other circumstances have produced substantial new information requiring substantial revisions that would trigger recirculation of the Final MND or additional environmental review of the Project under State CEQA Guidelines section 15073.5. Based on the whole record before it, the City Council finds that the Final MND was prepared in
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
Attachment 8
compliance with CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines, that there is no substantial evidence that the Project will have a significant effect on the environment with the incorporation of mitigation, and the Final MND reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the City.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EL PASO DE ROBLES DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. All of the above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.
Section 2. The City Council has reviewed and considered the Final MND and administrative record for the Project, including all oral and written comments received during the comment period. Based on the City’s independent review and analysis, the City Council finds that the Final MND and the administrative record contain a complete and accurate reporting of the environmental impacts associated with the Project, and that the Final MND has been completed in compliance with CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines.
Section 3. Based on the Final MND and the administrative record, including all public comments (written and oral evidence) presented to the City Council as of February 20, 2024, the City Councilfinds that all environmental impacts of the Project are less than significant with the mitigation set forth in the MND and the MMRP. The City Council further finds that there is no substantial evidence in the administrative record supporting a fair argument that the Project may result in significant environmental impacts. The City Council finds that the Final MND contains a complete, objective, and accurate reporting of the environmental impacts associated with the Project and reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the City. No new significant environmental effects have been identified in the Final MND and any changes to the Final MND in response to comments or otherwise do not constitute substantial revisions requiring recirculation under State CEQA Guidelines section 15073.5. Based on these findings, the City Council approves and adoptsthe Final MND for this Project, which is attached to this Resolution as Exhibit “B”, pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080, subdivision (c)(2).
Section 4. The City Council has also reviewed and considered the MMRP for the Project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public Resources Code section 21081.6 and finds that such Plan is designed to ensure compliance with the mitigation measures during Project implementation. The City Council therefore approves and adopts the MMRP for the Project, which is attached to this Resolution as Exhibit “C” and made a condition of Project approval.
Section 5. The City Council directsstaff to file a Notice of Determination with the San Luis Obispo County Clerk and the Office of Planning and Research within five (5) working days of approval of the Project.
Section 6. The custodian of records for the Final MND, MMRP, and all other materials that constitute the record of proceedings on which these findings have been based are located at the Paso Robles Community Development Department, located at 1000 Spring Street, Paso Robles, California 93446. The custodian of these documents is the City Clerk of the City of Paso Robles.

Response to Comments
APCD letter dated 10/9/23
1. General Comments
a. Nuisance Odors from Wineries Wine production facilities can generate nuisance odors during various steps of the process. Proven methods for handling wastewater discharge and grape skin waste need to be incorporated into the winery practices to reduce offsite odor. Odor complaints could result in a violation of the SLO County APCD Rule 402, Nuisance.
Response: There is no wine production component for this project. It is anticipated that there would be wine storage, which has no odor.
b. Construction Permit Requirements
Response: The list of equipment is provided for in the project conditions of approval indicating that if used will require an APCD permit.
c. Construction Permit Requirements: Based on the information provided, we are unsure of the types of equipment that may be present during the project’s construction phase.
Portable equipment, 50 horsepower (hp) or greater, used during construction activities may require a California statewide portable equipment registration (issued by the California Air Resources Board) or an APCD permit. The following list is provided as a guide to equipment and operations that may have permitting requirements but should not be viewed as exclusive:
• Power screens, conveyors, diesel engines, and/or crushers; • Portable generators and equipment with engines that are 50 hp or greater; • Electrical generation plants or the use of standby generators; • Internal combustion engines; and
• Tub grinders.
Response: Condition of approval APCD-1 has been included in Exhibit A of Resolution B. d. Operational Permit Requirements: Based on the information provided, we are unsure of the types of equipment that may be present at the site. Operational sources may require APCD permits. The following list is provided as a guide to equipment and operations that may have permitting requirements but should not be viewed as exclusive:
• New wineries or expanding wineries with the capacity of 26,000 gallons (10,000 cases at twelve 750 milliliter bottles per case) year or more require a Permit to Operate for fermentation and storage of wine;
• Portable generators and equipment with engines that are 50 hp or greater; • Any stationary or portable agricultural engine over 50 hp • Electrical generation plants or the use of standby generators; • Food and beverage preparation (primarily coffee roasters); • Furniture and fixture products;
• Metal industries, fabrication;
• Small scale manufacturing;
• Boilers; Page 162 of 356
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024

• Internal combustion engines; and
• Sterilization units using ethylene oxide and incinerators.
Response: Condition of approval APCD-2 has been included in Exhibit A of Resolution B.
2. Air Quality
a. The APCD evaluated the construction impacts of this project using the most recent CalEEMod computer model and the inputs the applicant used. The modeling results indicate that the construction phase impacts will likely exceed the APCD’s significance threshold values identified in Table 2-1 of the CEQA Air Quality Handbook. However, APCD was able to model ROG plus NOx emissions below the APCD Quarterly Tier 2 threshold of 6.3 tons of ozone precursors/quarter. APCD’s results were close to the applicants’ modeling results when a “Use Low VOC paint” mitigation measure was included.
Response: T he project’s construction phase shell either use low VOC paints (50 g of VOC per liter or lower) or source prefabricated/painted project materials to ensure the project is beneath the APCD’s ozone precursor quarterly threshold. The condition of approval has been added to Exhibit A of Resolution B. b. Standard Mitigation Measures for Construction Equipment This project exceeds ROG+NOx Quarterly Tier 1 threshold; therefore the project’s construction phase shall implement Standard Construction Mitigation Measures:

Exhibit A
3. Greenhouse Gas Emissions
The project proponent evaluated the greenhouse gas (GHG) impacts of this project using the most recent CalEEMod computer model with the results included in Table L of the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND). The applicant incorrectly amortized the Operation emissions of 1,875 MT carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e)/year, instead of the overall construction emissions of 1,124 MT CO2e over the four years of construction. Commercial projects use a 25-year project life for amortized construction emissions resulting in 45 MT CO2e/yr to be added to the operational phase emissions. The applicant removed unnecessary refrigerant emissions (736 MT CO2e/yr) from the total operational emissions (1,875 MT CO2e/yr ) for a total of 1,139 MT CO2e/yr. APCD added the applicant’s Operational emissions to the amortized Construction phase emissions resulting in 1,184 MT CO2e/yr.
The 1,184 MT CO2e per year exceeds the potential interim GHG threshold of 690 metric tons of CO2e emissions per year the city may find to be applicable for this project. However, when APCD re-ran CalEEmod using Central Coast Community Energy as the energy supplier, the result was 720 MT CO2e. Using the following mitigation measures, the project proponent could achieve a reduction in greenhouse gas reductions below 690 metric tons of CO2e per year:
Response: The applicant has committed to the project receiving power from Central Coast Community Energy. A condition has been added to Exhibit A of Resolution B.
SAFER – Lozeau Drury Letter
1. Mitigated Negative Declaration Comment
SAFER is concerned that the MND is improper under the California Environmental Quality Act because there is a fair argument that the Project may have adverse environmental impacts that must be analyzed and mitigated in an environmental impact report (“EIR). The construction of the project necessitates removal of six ecologically-important native valley oaks and eliminates potential habitat for the protected San Joaquin Kit Fox, a species currently endangered primarily due to habitat loss as a result of land conversion and development. SAFER requests that an environmental impact report be prepared for the Project rather than an MND to ensure that potentially significant impacts of this Project are fully disclosed, analyzed, and mitigated.
Response:
Oak Removal: The discussion section IV.e. Biological Resources of the Initial Study, adequately addresses tree preservation and removal policies.
San Joaquin Kit Fox habitat removal: Mitigation Measure MM Bio-1 and MM Bio-2 adequately address habitat impacts.

Implementation Timing/Remarks
To reduce any potentially significant impact on nesting birds from vegetation removal to a less than significant level, the following mitigation measures are
recommended.
MM BIO-1: Vegetation removal and initial site disturbance shall be conducted between
September 1 and January 31 outside of the nesting season for birds. If vegetation and/or tree removal is planned for the bird nesting season (February 1 to August 31), then preconstruction nesting bird surveys shall be conducted by a qualified biologist to determine if any active nests would be impacted by project construction. If no active nests are found, then no further mitigation shall be required.

Implementation Timing/Remarks
If any active nests are found that would be impacted by construction, then the nest sites shall be avoided with the establishment of a non-disturbance buffer zone around
active nests as determined by a qualified biologist. Nest sites shall be avoided and protected with the nondisturbance buffer zone until the adults and young of the year are no longer reliant on the nest site for survival as determined by a qualified biologist. As such, avoiding
disturbance or take of an active nest would reduce
potential impacts on nesting birds to a less-than-significant level.
MM BIO-2: To avoid direct take of SJKF during construction in accordance with theSFWS and San Luis Obispo County
Guide to SJKF Mitigation Procedures Under CEQA, the
project owner shall adopt the Standard Kit Fox CEQA
Mitigation Measures and shall be included on
development plans. The following measures shall be
implemented:
• A maximum 25 mph speed limit shall be required at
the project site during construction activities.
• All construction activities shall cease at dusk and not start before dawn.
• A qualified biologist shall be on-site immediately prior to initiation of project activities to inspect for any large burrows (e.g., known and potential dens) and to
ensure no wildlife are injured during project activities. If dens are encountered, they should be avoided as
discussed below.
• Exclusion zone boundaries shall be established around all known and potential SJKF dens.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EL PASO DE ROBLES DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: Recitals. All of the above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.
Section 2: Findings. Based upon the facts and analysis presented in the staff report, public testimony received, and subject to the conditions listed below, the City Council makes the following findings:
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
Attachment 9
Development Plan Findings
1. The design and intensity of the proposed development plan is consistent with the goals and policies established by the general plan and the zoning code, particularly the purpose and intent of the zoning district in which the development project is located, because the project would provide for additional commercial, light-industrial, and warehouse uses consistent with the Commercial Service land use and Commercial Light-Industrial zoning designations.
2. The proposed development plan will not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience and general welfare of the residents or businesses in the surrounding area, or be injurious or detrimental to property and improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the City, as a result of the site planning demonstrating required setbacks and adequate landscaping, screening, and separation from neighboring uses.
3. The proposed development plan accommodates the aesthetic quality of the City as a whole, especially where development will be visible from the gateways to the City scenic corridors, and the public right-of-way, based on the mixture of quality materials and landscaping.
4. The proposed development plan is compatible with, and is not detrimental to, surrounding land uses and improvements, provides appropriate visual appearance, and contributes to the mitigation of any environmental and social impacts as outlined in the project design documents and the MND prepared for this project.
5. The proposed development plan is compatible with existing scenic and environmental resources such as hillsides, stream courses, oak trees, vistas, and historic buildings and structures; because although six oak trees will be removed, additional mitigation oak trees will be planted onsite.
6. The proposed development plan contributes to the orderly development of the city as a whole by providing a well-designed project that is suitable for the location where it is proposed and surrounding land uses including commercial and light industrial uses, and the existing and future Chandler Ranch residential area to the south of Lot 13.
Planned Development Overlay District Findings
1. The granting of this permit will not adversely affect the policies, spirit and intent of the general plan, applicable specific plans, the zoning code and all other adopted codes, policies, and plans of the city because commercial, light-industrial, and warehousing uses are consistent with the intent of the Commercial Service General Plan land use designation.
2. The proposed project maintains and enhances significant natural resources on the site because it will retain two of eight oak trees and will incorporate additional replacement oak trees into the site’s landscape plan for the six oak trees to be removed.
3. The proposed project is designed to be sensitive to, and blend in with, the character of the site and surround area, and would not have an adverse effect on the public views from nearby roads and other public vantage points, because it will provide commercial, light-industrial,
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
Attachment 9
and warehouse buildings of similar scale and architectural quality as other businesses in the vicinity.
4. The proposed project's design and density of the developed portion of the site is compatible with the established character and scale of surrounding development and would not be a disharmonious or disruptive element to the neighborhood because it similar scale and architectural quality as other businesses in the vicinity.
5. The development would be consistent with the purpose and intent of this Planned Development District chapter of the Zoning Ordinance and would not be contrary to the public health, safety, and welfare because it does not include significant modification from code requirements as can be permitted in the PD Overlay district.
6. Modification of the standards as set forth in this chapter or elsewhere in the zoning ordinance shall only be approved upon a finding that greater public benefit would be achieved through such modifications. Additionally, for planned development projects that are seeking an increase in allowable building heights, modification of the height limitations shall only be approved upon a finding that the proportion, scale, and nature of the project is such that the modifications would not create an adverse visual impact nor compromise the safety of occupants. The project does not include a modification of the height limit.
Conditional Use Permit Findings:
1. The project has been designed in a manner that provides a 6-foot decorative masonry wall and a 10-foot-wide landscape planter which will provide visual screen from the residentially zoned land (North Chandler Ranch) to the south as required by Section 21.13.030.F.1a & b., as a result of the wall and the planter area, and since this project is not proposing any outdoor storage of equipment or materials, the project has been designed to adequately screen the site from the residential land to the south.
2. The project has been designed with commercial and light-industrial uses that do not create noise, visual and/or land use impacts to neighboring land uses, because of the design of the project providing perimeter setbacks, walls, fencings, landscape planters to help separate the project from neighboring land uses.
3. The Covelop/MD3 project includes commercial light-industrial uses along with warehousing, which are uses that will not have a detrimental effect on the city’s goal to revitalizing the downtown.
4. Accordingly, the requested use will not, in these particular circumstances, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience, and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed use, nor will the use be injurious or detrimental to property or improvements in the neighborhood, or the general welfare of the City.
Oak Tree Removal Permit Finding
1. For the six (6) valley oak trees (Tree Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 9 and 11), although rated very poor condition, the necessity of the requested action is to allow reasonable use of the property
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
Attachment 9
for which it has been zoned by allowing construction of the project. Because these trees are rated in “very poor” condition, their health and status as a potential public nuisance/danger of falling warrant their removal, especially as mitigation trees will be planted.
2. Because the building has been considered for alternative designs and the site plan has undergone changes to retain the two healthiest oak trees on the property (Tree Nos. 10 and 13), every reasonable effort has been made to avoid impacting oak trees, consistent with Paso Robles Municipal Code Section 10.01.050.D. Additionally, mitigation trees (totaling 67.7-inches in diameter) are being provided with the new landscape plan for the project to mitigate for the loss of Trees. 1, 2, 3, 4, 9 and 11.
3. The removal of the requested oak trees will not have a long-term negative impact on soil retention, water retention, or diversion or increased flow of surface waters, as mitigation trees will be planted, two trees will remain onsite, and there are not otherwise grading, or drainage concerns raised by the application.
4. There are various oak trees in the general vicinity of the project site that will not be impacted by this action, and removal of the requested oak trees will not otherwise have long-term effects on shade areas, air pollution, or scenic beauty, as mitigation trees will provide such benefits in accordance with City standards.
5. Mitigation trees are proposed so as to ultimately retain the number of healthy trees that the subject parcel will support.
Section 3: Environmental Determination. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000 et seq., “CEQA”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal.
Code of Regulations §§ 15000 et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines), the City prepared an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (SCH #2023090132) (“MND”) that analyzed the proposed Project’s environmental impacts. The MND was made available to the public for review from September 11, 2023 through October 10, 2023. On February 20, 2024, the City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing and considered the entire administrative record (as of that date), including staff reports, the MND, Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan (“MMRP”), and oral and written testimony from interested persons, all of whom were given an opportunity to be heard. Resolution No. 2023-__ recommends adoption of the MND and MMRP, and, among other things, properly assesses the environmental impact of the Project in accordance with CEQA. This Resolution incorporates by reference the environmental findings and analysis set forth in Resolution No. 2023-__, including the MND and MMRP, as if fully set forth herein.
Section 4: Approval. The City Council approves Planned Development 22-20, Conditional Use Permit 223- 14, and Oak Tree Removal Permit 23-11, subject to the following:

3. PD22-20 shall allow for the subdivision, development plan, use permit, and oak tree removal permit to develop an approximate 14-acre site with six (6) commercial/light industrial buildings totaling 240,327 square feet.
4. Approval of this project is valid for a period of two (2) years from date of City Council approval.
Unless construction permits have been issued and site work has begun, the approval of Planned Development 22-20 shall expire on November 7, 2025. The Planning Commission may extend this expiration date if a Time Extension application has been filed with the City along with the fees before the expiration date.
5. The project phasing shall be substantially compliant with the following schedule:
6. Any condition imposed by the City Council in approving this Development Plan and Oak Tree Removal Permit may be modified or eliminated, or new conditions may be added, provided that the Planning Commission shall first conduct a public hearing in the same manner as required for the granting of the original permit. No such modification shall be made unless the Commission finds that such modification is necessary to protect the public interest and/or neighboring properties, or, in the case of deletion of an existing condition, that such action is necessary to permit reasonable operation and use under the Development Plan.
7. OTR23-11 allows for the removal of 6 Valley oak trees (Tree #’s 1, 2, 3, 4, 9 and 11), totaling 270- inches in diameter. Tree No. 10 and 13 shall be protected and subject to the tree preservation details outlined in the Arborist Report, attached as Exhibit S.
8. OTR 23-11 shall require the onsite planting of 67.5-inches in diameter of replacement trees, or 34, 1.5-inch caliper replacement Valley oaks.
9. Before issuance of a building permit, the applicant shall submit a Water Efficient Landscape Worksheet.
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
Exhibit A
Conditions of Approval PD 22-20, CUP 23-11 Page 3 of 9
10. Before final inspection, the applicant shall submit a Certificate of Completion for the landscaping and irrigation installed.
11. Ongoing, the project shall be subject to the City Noise Ordinance.
12. When incorporating new oak trees into your landscape, you will need to allow for at least an 8’ x 8’ planting area. Curbing for the planting area shall not count as part of the planting area dimensions. Planting areas smaller than 8’x 8’ will result in sidewalk and curb buckling when tree roots mature. Distances between oak trees should be no less than 25 feet. If oak trees can be incorporated into open, non-hardscape areas, they will have a higher success rate. Planting trees in groups of 3, in larger landscape planting islands is also a great way to ensure better root health and tree survival rates while maximizing parking lot shade benefits.
13. The following precautions shall be taken to insure protection of Tree No. 10 and 13:
• Do not till or trench within the TPZ to install landscaping or irrigation. • Install only drought tolerant and preferably California native plants beneath the tree canopy.
• Irrigation shall be drip-type and all supply hoses shall be routed above ground. • Do not install overhead sprinkler irrigation because it will introduce too much moisture and potentially rot the tree’s roots.
• Do not install weed block cloth beneath the canopy of the tree. It restricts rainwater from percolating into the soil.
• Provide decorative bark as a top dressing to help retain moisture in the root zone. • Do not construct permanent concrete or brick patios beneath the canopy of the tree. • Install Raised deck patios. They are the preferred treatment for seating areas within the critical root zones of trees.
14. Prior to any construction or ground disturbing activities, the project arborist shall meet with all contractors involved with the development of this project to review tree protection measures.
Any new contractors brought on site shall also meet or communicate with the project arborist by phone or video conference to ensure they are aware of all tree protection measures.
15. If construction occurs during the months of June through November, the TPZs shall be irrigated to a depth of 12 inches 1 time before construction begins, which will ensure the trees are properly hydrated. Additional irrigations during construction may be recommended by the project arborist.
16. All work within or adjacent to the CRZs of oak trees will require arborist supervision to ensure that all tree protection measures are implemented. To avoid damage to critical roots, no machine use will be allowed in the TPZ. In order to prevent undue damage to roots when grading, the grading limits along the perimeter of the TPZ shall be dug by hand to the final grading depth. If a root 1” diameter or larger is exposed, it shall not be cut without the project arborist’s permission.
17. If the project arborist determines that a root over 1-inch diameter needs to be cut, it shall be cut by hand with a pruning saw or reciprocating saw. Once the entire perimeter outside the TPZ has been dug and roots are severed, the project arborist can approve use of machinery to complete excavation and grading if work is outside of the TPZ.
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024

18. A tree protection zone or TPZ is similar to a CRZ. Ideally it will be the same size as the CRZ, however it can be smaller. The general rule for CRZ encroachments is that they may be allowed if the impact to critical roots is not more than 25% with no disturbance of Structural Roots (large roots that provide anchorage and stability to the tree).
19. Once the TPZ limits have been established, tree protection fencing shall be provided for all trees listed for protection. Tree protection fencing is required to be in place for the duration of the construction project and shall be installed before starting any ground disturbing activities. • Do not remove any tree protection fencing or enter the TPZ without approval of the project arborist. The fencing shall delineate and protect the tree protection zone. • The fencing shall at minimum, be 4 feet tall and made of orange, high density, polyethylene with 3.5” x 1.5” openings. It shall be installed on steel posts 8 feet on center and tightly stretched to prevent sagging. I STRONGLY recommend installing 6’ X 8’ temporary, chain-link, fence panels secured to driven steel post. This is a more secure and less moveable option than vinyl fencing that can easily be moved by hand or run over by vehicles. See Appendix C - Tree Protection Diagrams & Photos - Diagram 2 – Temporary Chain-link Fence Panel.
• Trunk Protection shall also be provided – Often, the trunk of a tree will be damaged by construction equipment activities. In order to protect as much of the trunk as possible, 2” X 4” wood slats with a minimum height of 8’ shall be placed against the trunk of the tree and secured with wire or zip-ties. DO NOT use anchors such as screws or nails to connect to the trunk. See Appendix C – Tree Protection Diagrams - Diagram 3- Trunk Protection for more detail.
• Tree protection signs shall be placed on the TPZ fencing and be spaced 10 feet apart. Signs shall be weatherproof, and state, “Tree Protection Zone – Do Not Enter”. The signs shall also include the project manager’s and project arborist’s phone numbers. Signs shall remain in place until completion of the project. See Appendix C – Tree Protection Diagrams - Diagram 1 – Tree Protection Fencing for further detail. • No construction or ground disturbance shall be allowed inside the fenced TPZ or CRZ without the project arborist’s permission and/or oversite. If you are unsure whether an activity is allowed, refer to Appendix D - Tree Protection Requirements – Quick Reference List or contact the project arborist Rodney Thurman at 805 234 8760 APCD Conditions:
1. Portable equipment, 50 horsepower (hp) or greater, used during construction activities may require a California statewide portable equipment registration (issued by the California Air Resources Board) or an APCD permit.

• Metal industries, fabrication;
• Small scale manufacturing;
• Boilers;
• Internal combustion engines; and
• Sterilization units using ethylene oxide and incinerators.
3. This project exceeds the ROG+NOx Quarterly Tier 1 threshold; therefore the project’s construction phase shall implement Standard Construction Mitigation Measures:
• Maintain all construction equipment in proper tune according to manufacturer’s specifications;
• Fuel all off-road and portable diesel powered equipment with CARB certified motor vehicle diesel fuel (non-taxed version suitable for use off-road); • Use diesel construction equipment meeting CARB's Tier 2 certified engines or cleaner offroad heavy-duty diesel engines, and comply with the State Off-Road Regulation; • Use on-road heavy-duty trucks that meet the CARB’s 2010 or cleaner certification standard for on-road heavy-duty diesel engines, and comply with the State On-Road Regulation; • Construction or trucking companies with fleets that that do not have engines in their fleet that meet the engine standards identified in the above two measures (e.g. captive or NOx exempt area fleets) may be eligible by proving alternative compliance; • All on and off-road diesel equipment shall not idle for more than 5-minutes. Signs shall be posted in the designated queuing areas and or job sites to remind drivers and operators of the 5-minute idling limit;
• Diesel idling within 1,000 feet of sensitive receptors is not permitted;
4. Projects with grading areas more than 4 acres and/or within 1,000 feet of any sensitive receptor shall implement the following mitigation measures to manage fugitive dust emissions such that they do not exceed the APCD 20% opacity limit (APCD Rule 401) and minimize nuisance (APCD Rule 402) impacts:
a. Reduce the amount of the disturbed area where possible; b. Use of water trucks or sprinkler systems in sufficient quantities to prevent airborne dust from leaving the site and from exceeding the APCD’s limit of 20% opacity for greater than 3 minutes in any 60-minute period. Increased watering frequency would be required whenever wind speeds exceed 15 mph. Reclaimed (non-potable) water should be used whenever possible. When drought conditions exist and water use is a concern, the contractor or builder should consider use of a dust suppressant that is effective for the specific site conditions to reduce the amount of water used for dust control. Please refer to
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024

c. All stockpiled dirt should be sprayed daily and covered with tarps or other dust barriers as needed;
d. All roadways, driveways, sidewalks, etc. to be paved should be completed as soon as possible, and building pads should be laid as soon as possible after grading unless seeding, soil binders or other dust controls are used;
e. All trucks hauling dirt, sand, soil, or other loose materials are to be covered or should maintain at least two feet of freeboard (minimum vertical distance between top of load and top of trailer) or otherwise comply with California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 23114; f. “Track-Out” is defined as sand or soil that adheres to and/or agglomerates on the exterior surfaces of motor vehicles and/or equipment (including tires) that may then fall onto any highway or street as described in CVC Section 23113 and California Water Code 13304. To prevent ‘track out’, designate access points and require all employees, subcontractors, and others to use them. Install and operate a ‘track-out prevention device’ where vehicles enter and exit unpaved roads onto paved streets. The ‘track-out prevention device’ can be any device or combination of devices that are effective at preventing track out, located at the point of intersection of an unpaved area and a paved road. Rumble strips or steel plate devices need periodic cleaning to be effective. If paved roadways accumulate tracked out soils, the track-out prevention device may need to be modified; g. All fugitive dust mitigation measures shall be shown on grading and building plans; h. The contractor or builder shall designate a person or persons whose responsibility is to ensure any fugitive dust emissions do not result in a nuisance and to enhance the implementation of the mitigation measures as necessary to minimize dust complaints and reduce visible emissions below the APCD’s limit of 20% opacity for greater than 3 minutes in any 60-minute period. Their duties shall include holidays and weekend periods when work may not be in progress (for example, wind-blown dust could be generated on an open dirt lot). The name and telephone number of such persons shall be provided to the APCD Compliance Division prior to the start of any grading, earthwork, or demolition (Contact the Compliance Division at 805-781-5912).
i. Permanent dust control measures identified in the approved project revegetation and landscape plans should be implemented as soon as possible, following completion of any soil disturbing activities;
j. Exposed ground areas that are planned to be reworked at dates greater than one month after initial grading should be sown with a fast germinating, non-invasive grass seed and watered until vegetation is established;
k. All disturbed soil areas not subject to revegetation should be stabilized using approved chemical soil binders, jute netting, or other methods approved in advance by the APCD; l. Vehicle speed for all construction vehicles shall not exceed 15 mph on any unpaved surface at the construction site;
m. Sweep streets at the end of each day if visible soil material is carried onto adjacent paved roads. Water sweepers shall be used with reclaimed water where feasible. Roads shall be pre-wetted prior to sweeping when feasible; and
n. Take additional measures as needed to ensure dust from the project site is not impacting areas outside the project boundary.

SLOPE PROTECTION: PROTECT ALL GRADED CUT AND FILL SLOPES WITHIN 14
DAYS OF INITIAL GRADING PER PROJECT PLANS AND AS FOLLOWS FOR ANY FIELD CHANGES:
Install fiber rolls on slopes along the contour with a slight downward angle at the end of each row to prevent ponding at the midsection (California Straw Works, 2005). Turn the ends of each fiber roll upslope to prevent runoff from flowing around the roll.
Install fiber rolls in shallow trenches dug 3 to 5 inches deep for soft, loamy soils and 2 to 3 inches deep for hard, rocky soils. Determine the vertical spacing for slope installations on thebasis of the slope gradient and soil type.
FIBER ROLL SLOPE PLACEMENT
1:1 slopes = 10 feet apart
2:1 slopes = 20 feet apart
3:1 slopes = 30 feet apart
4:1 slopes = 40 feet apart
For soft, loamy soils, place the rows closer together. For hard, rocky soils, place the rows farther apart. Stake fiber rolls securely into the ground and orient them perpendicular to the slope. Biodegradable wood stakes or willow cuttings are recommended. Drive the stakes (24-inch stake is recommended for use on soft, loamy soils. An 18-inch stake is recommended for use on hard, rocky soil) through the middle of the fiber roll and deep enough into the ground to anchor the roll in place. About 3 to 5 inches of the stake should stick out above the roll, and the stakes should be spaced 3 to 4 feet apart.2. STABILIZE ALL GRADED SLOPES AFTER 14 DAYS OF INACTIVITY. VEGETATE SLOPES BY EITHER:
a. HYDROSEED AND PROVIDE TEMPORARY IRRIGATION UNTIL
ESTABLISHED; OR
b. DRY SEED AND COVER WITH WEED FREE STRAW, TRACKED UP AND DOWN SLOPE TO TACK INTO THE SOIL (USING TRACKED CONSTRUCTIONEQUIPMENT Or, c. PLACE JUTE NETTING OR EROSION CONTROL BLANKETS ON ALL GRADED SLOPES THAT DO NOT HAVE ESTABLISHED VEGETATION BY SEPTEMBER 1.

County Erosion Control Notes
1. Erosion control measures for wind, water, material stockpiles, and tracking shall be implemented on all projects at all times and shall include source control, includingprotection of stockpiles, protection of slopes, protection of all disturbed areas, protection of accesses, and perimeter containment measures. Erosion control shall be placed prior to the commencement of grading and site disturbance activities unless the Public Works Department determines temporary measures to be unnecessary based upon location, site characteristics or time of year. The intent of erosion control measures shall be to keep all generated sediments from entering a swale, drainage way, watercourse, atmosphere, or migrate onto adjacent properties or onto the public right-of-way.
2. Site inspections and appropriate maintenance of all erosion control measures/devices shall be conducted and documented at all times during construction and especially prior to, during, and after rain events.
3. The Developer shall be responsible for the placement and maintenance of all erosion control measures/devices as specified by the approved plan until such time that the project is accepted as complete by the Public Works Department or until released from the Conditions of Approval of their General Permit. Erosion control measures/devices may be relocated, deleted or additional measures/devices may be required depending on the actual conditions encountered during construction. Additional erosion control measures/devices shall be placed at the discretion of the Engineer of Work, County Inspector, SWPPP Monitor, or RWQCB Inspector. Guidelines for determining appropriate erosion control devices shall be included in the plans with additional measures/devices noted from the appendix of the Public Improvement Standards.
4. Installation of erosion control measures and devices shall be implemented "year-round".
5. The Contractor, Developer, and Engineer of Work shall be responsible to review the project site prior to October 15 (rainy season) and to coordinate an implementation plan for wet weather erosion control devices. A locally based standby crew for emergency work shall be available at all times during the rainy season (October 15 through April 15). Necessarymaterials shall be available and stock piled at convenient locations to facilitate rapid construction or maintenance of temporary devices when rain is imminent.6. In the event of a failure, the Developer and/or his representative shall be responsible forcleanup and all associated costs or damage. In the event that damage occurs within the right-of-way and the County is required to perform cleanup, the owner shall be responsible for County reimbursement of all associated costs or damage.
7. In the event of failure and/or lack of performance by the owner and/or contractor to correct erosion control related problems the Public Works Department may revoke all active permits and recommend that County Code Enforcement provide a written notice or stop work order in accordance with Section 22.52.140 [23.10] of the Land Use Ordinance.
8. Permanent erosion control shall be placed and established with 90% coverage on all disturbed surfaces other than paved or gravel surfaces, prior to final inspection.
Permanent erosion control shall be fully established prior to final acceptance. Temporary erosion control measures shall remain in place until permanent measures are established.
9. The County Air Pollution Control District (APCD) may have additional project specific erosion control requirements. The Contractor, Developer, and Engineer of Work shall be responsible for maintaining self-regulation of these requirements.
10. All projects involving site disturbance of one acre or greater shall comply with the requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). The Developer shall submit a Notice of intent (NOI) to comply with the General Permit for Construction Activity with the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). The Developer shall provide the County with the Waste Discharge Identification Number (WDID #) or with verification that an exemption has been granted by RWQCB. WDID No.: .

Dust Control Notes:
1. Reduce the amount of the disturbed area where possible
2. Use water trucks or sprinkler systems in sufficient quantities to prevent airborne dust from leaving the site. Increased watering frequency would be required whenever wind speeds exceed 15 mph. Reclaimed (nonpotable) water should be used whenever possible.
3. All dirt stock-pile areas must be sprayed as needed.
4. Permanent dust control measures identified in the approved project plans should be implemented as soon as possible following completion of any soil disturbing activities.
5. Exposed ground areas that are planned to be reworked at dates greater than one month after initial grading should be sown with a fast-germinating native grass seed and watered until vegetation is established.
6. All disturbed areas not subject to revegetation should be stabilized using approved chemical soil binders, jute netting or other methods approved in advance by the APCD.
7. All roadways should be paved as soon as possible.
8. Vehicle speed for all construction vehicles shall not exceed 15 mph on any unpaved surface at the construction site.
9. All trucks hauling dirt, sand, soil or other loose materials are to be covered or should maintain at least two feet of freeboard (minimum vertical distance between top of load and top of trailer) in accordance with CVC Section 23114.
10. All areas disturbed by grading activities shall be hydroseeded with an approved hydroseed mix.
11. Effective soil cover shall be implemented for areas scheduled to be inactive for at least 14 days.

Tel: 805 234 8760 Email: [email protected] August 17, 2022 To: Michael Stoltey – MD3 Investments & Damien Mavis – CoVelop Re: Oak Tree Assessment report for Ardmore Road Project, 2930 Union Rd, Paso Robles, CA 93446 Gentlemen,
In response to your request for an Oak Tree Assessment for trees growing on a lot you intend to purchase and develop at 2930 Union Road, I have produced the following report.
Assignment
• Collect tree data and perform Level 2 inspection on 9 valley oaks (Quercus lobata) to determine condition and suitability for retention.
• Perform advanced Level 3 Assessment with Resistograph for 3 valley oaks. • Provide written summary of condition and suitability for retention for all 9 valley oaks.
Introduction
On August 2, 2022, I visited the site and performed a Level 2, basic assessment on all native oaks 6-inch diameter and greater on lots you intend to develop. As a result, 3 of the trees required a Level 3 advanced inspection with a Resistograph, wood density measuring device. I returned to the site on August 5, 2022, and performed the advanced inspections with a Resistograph to measure wood density.
On August 12, 2022, I collected additional data for tree #2 via a climbing inspection. I analyzed data collected during the advanced inspections and have made recommendations regarding tree condition, tree risk and potential for retention. All tree inspections were based on the potential for a tree to fail within the next 5 years from the date of this report. Any tree retained should be re-inspected on an annual basis to determine health and structural integrity status.
MethodologyMy initial level 2 inspection consisted of a ground based, visual inspection and full walk around of the tree. I used a rubber mallet to sound the trunk to detect decay. I tagged each tree with an aluminum tag and assigned it a number. Based on a previous arborist’s inspection of the trees, I assigned the same number that was listed in their report so we would have consistency when referencing the trees.
Advanced inspections consisted of Resistograph wood density testing, and in one instance, an aerial inspection that consisted of determining the extent of decay with a tape measure.
EXHIBIT - D
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
2 Tree Condition Ratings
All trees in the inventory were given a condition rating. The rating was based on the health, structure and presence of disease and insects. See the following definitions:
• Dead = Severely declining or no foliage, large dead branches, decay cavities, loss of bark, roots decayed or dead.
• Very Poor = Evidence of multiple large past failures, advanced decay, uncontrollable pest infestations or disease infection. Tree in severe decline. • Poor = Tree may be suppressed, drought stressed, or had at least 1 large branch failure.
Disease or pest infestations may be present. Can potentially be retained with attention to mitigation pruning, cultural care changes, pest and disease control. • Fair = May have had minor past failures. Some pests or structural defects may be present, small deadwood. Minor to moderate drought stress present. Defects may be mitigated with pruning and pests can be controlled.
• Good = A relatively healthy tree with minor to no structural defects with minimal to no pest observed. Defects can be mitigated with pruning and pests can be controlled. • Very Good = Trees that have had professional arboricultural care. No structural defects, disease or pests identified.
• Excellent = Specimen tree with superior form, root structure and health. Tree has been regularly cared for by professional arborists over its lifetime, E.g., estate or arboretum tree.
Inspection Levels
Level 1 – Limited Visual Inspection – This is a limited walk-by or drive-by, which does not typically include a complete walk around a tree. The inspection focuses on obvious defects, imminent or probable likelihood of failures. There are generally no tools used at this level. This is the fastest and least thorough assessment.
Level 2 – Basic Assessment – Generally includes a complete walk around inspection. Basic tools such as probes, measuring devices, binoculars, mallet or magnifying glass are used. At this level, an aerial inspection is not included. A Level 2 assessment is usually necessary to establish the need for a Level 3 assessment.
Level 3 – Advanced Inspection – Detailed inspection which usually employs the use of special equipment, data collection and analysis. A higher level of training is also required, such as International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Tree Risk Assessment Qualification. Specialized equipment may include an Air Spade (device that uses compressed air to expose roots or root crown for inspections without causing damage to sensitive plant tissues). Resistograph (drilling devise used to measure and graph wood density) Level 3 inspections may also include sending samples to labs for analysis. A Level 3 inspections will usually take place later because of time needed to perform a Level 2 inspection.
Assessing Tree Structure and Potential to Fail
Estimating the structural integrity of trees is a challenge because, unlike steel I-beams or other construction materials there is no precise engineering standard to help determine the load a tree can withstand.
EXHIBIT - D
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
3 Arborists must use measurement of decay, experience with previous, similar trees as well as factor in the various stressors on the compromised areas within the tree. Trees with thicker outer shells are going to be stronger. Oval internal decay areas and areas of decay that have broken through the outer shell of the trunk or branch will be weaker due to the inconsistency of the cylinder.
Tree Risk
Tree risk is determined by identifying the targets e.g. (people, buildings, cars or property) that could be injured or damaged by a whole or partial tree failure, the occupancy rate, exposure of the target to the tree hazard, the size of part of the tree that may impact the target if it were to fail, the likelihood of impact on the target, and the consequences of failure on the target.
The part of the tree most likely to fail and cause the largest impact is used to determine the highest overall risk for the tree.
When considering likelihood of failure, the definitions are as follows:
• Imminent – Failure has started or most likely to occur in the near future. Even if there is no significant wind or increased load. The imminent category overrides the time frame stated in the scope of work.
• Probable – Failure may be expected under normal weather conditions within the specified time frame.
• Possible – Failure may be expected in extreme weather conditions, but is unlikely during normal weather conditions during a specified time frame. • Improbable – The tree or part is not likely to fail during normal weather conditions and may not fail in extreme weather conditions within the specified time frame.
Risk Matrices
I used the International Society of Arboriculture’s Basic Tree Risk Assessment Form to determine risk. Matrix 1 the “Likelihood Matrix” determines the likelihood of failure and impact. The result is entered into Matrix 2, the “Risk Rating Matrix” which factors in Consequences of Failure to get the overall risk rating. In the example below, Likelihood of failure of a part was Probable. The Likelihood of Impact was High. The result was Likely. In Matrix 2, I entered the result of Likely and entered Severe in the Consequences of Failure which gave me a risk rating of High.
EXHIBIT - D
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
4 For each tree requiring a level 3 inspection, I have highlighted matrix tables to show how risk was determined for the part or parts of the tree being considered regarding failure potential.
Mitigation
When assessing risk for a tree, it is important to determine if the risk of tree failure can be reduced through mitigation. Mitigation can be made through pruning, installing cabling or bracing support structures. Moving targets out of the strike zone of a tree or restricting access to a tree are also viable mitigation measures. The recommended mitigation should not be so excessive that they compromise the health of the tree.
Tree Assessments
I performed level 2 assessments on trees 1,2,3,4,9,10,11 & 13. See Tree Map Appendix B. From those assessments, I determined that trees 1,2 and 13 required level 3 advanced inspections. Each assessment below includes a condition rating as well as potential for retention and mitigation recommendations. For level 3 inspections, I included a tree risk assessment matrix.
Tree 1 – A 43” diameter valley oak was in Very Poor condition. See Appendix A - Photographs - Photo 1
Basic Level 2 Inspection –
This tree had drought stress which was indicated by dead wood in the canopy. It also had decay throughout its scaffold branches which was indicated by decay cavities and woodpecker nests excavated in dead wood. See Appendix A - Photographs - Photos 1 & 4.
The trunk had an approximate lean to the east of 10 degrees. It also had a horizontal compression bulge on the east side of its trunk approximately 1’ above ground. Compression bulges or wrinkles, indicate that wood fibers are being crushed by the weight of the canopy and trunk due to lack of supportive structure in the trunk. Further the tree had a large, decayed, anchor root on its southwest side. The root was on the opposing side of the lean of the tree and is likely to fail as decay advances and stress from the weight of the canopy continues to build.
See Appendix A -Photographs - Photos 1-3.
Although this tree had a full canopy it has significant trunk decay. When I sounded the trunk with a rubber mallet, it resounded hollow on all sides. To further confirm the sounding results, I performed an advanced inspection of the decay using a Resistograph.
Advanced Level 3 Inspection -
I took 4 measurements of the wood density of the trunk at 3.5’ above ground. o Sample 1 – west side of tree. Outer shell thickness was 4” o Sample 2 – south side of tree. Outer shell thickness was 6” o Sample 3 – east side of tree. Outer shell thickness was 4” with a small 1.25” pocket of sound wood at 8” laterally, then total decay
EXHIBIT - D
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
5 o Sample 4 – north side of tree. Outer shell thickness was 5.25” Based on the Resistograph results, it was apparent that interior wood of the trunk is significantly decayed. The evidence of compression bulges showed that the trunk is losing structural integrity and leaning due to lack of supportive wood fibers.
Armillaria mellea, a.k.a. Oak root fungus is a common disease in valley oaks and is likely the cause of the decay in the roots and the trunk. Christopher J. Luley in his guide Wood Decay Fungi calls this fungus Number one of the “Big Three” of the important decay fungi. Again, according to Mr. Luley, “Armillaria is a root and butt rot fungus that increases the risk of tree failure and is a pathogen capable of killing cambium of roots and lower trunk of stressed trees”.
See Appendix A - Photographs - Photos 29 & 30 for example of failed oak due to root and butt rot.
Parts Assessed – Roots and Trunk
I used the International Society of Arboriculture’s Basic Tree Risk Assessment Form to determine risk for this tree. In Matrix 1 the “Likelihood Matrix” I selected Likelihood of Failure of the roots and trunk as Probable. The Likelihood of impacting a target in a built environment would be High. The resulting Likelihood of Impact was Likely, which I entered into Matrix 2, the “Risk Rating Matrix” in the Likelihood of Failure and Impact section. For the Consequences of Failure section of Matrix 2, I entered Severe. The Likelihood of Failure and Impact rating combined with the Consequences of Failure resulted in a risk rating of High.
Part Assessed – Scaffold Branches
In Matrix 1 the “Likelihood Matrix” I selected Likelihood of Failure of the scaffold branches as Probable. The Likelihood of impacting a target in a built environment would be High. The resulting Likelihood of Impact was Likely, which I entered into Matrix 2, the “Risk Rating Matrix” for the Likelihood of Failure and Impact section. Under Consequences of Failure in Matrix 2, I entered Severe. The Likelihood of Failure and Impact rating combined with the Consequences of Failure resulted in a risk rating of High.

6 Combined Inspection Results and Risk Assessment
The highest risk rating for this tree was High and was associated with root and trunk failure. I found decay in one anchor root and significant decay was detected in the trunk. Buckling of trunk fibers was evident. Based on shell strength measurements, the likelihood of trunk failure was probable, due to lack of structural integrity. Root failure was Probable due to significant decay in the anchor root on the southwest side of the tree. Scaffold failure was also probable with a high likelihood of failure.
Mitigation:
Scaffolds - Reducing the canopy through end weight reduction and removing decayed branches 2” diameter and larger would relieve some stress on remaining scaffold branches and reduce their risk to Moderate.
Roots and Trunk - Reducing the canopy through end weight reduction would relieve some stress on the trunk but not enough to offset the overall stress being exerted on the buckling area on the north side of the tree. No structural support or bracing will help the stability of the tree’s trunk or roots. Significant decay has been detected in the roots as well as the trunk. Based on shell strength measurements, lean of the tree and buckling of wood fibers on the east side of the trunk made failure likely due to lack of structural integrity. I recommend removing the tree before commencement of construction.
Tree 2 – A 47” diameter valley oak was in Poor condition. See Appendix A - Photographs - Photo 5.
Basic Level 2 Inspection –
On the south side of the trunk there was a decay cavity originating at the root-crown and extending approximately 5.5’ upward. When sounded with a rubber mallet on either side of the cavity, it resounded hollow. Moving around the trunk to the east side, I detected another hollow sounding area with my mallet at approximately 3.5’ above ground. See Appendix A - Photographs - Photo 6. Like Tree 1, I suspect Armillaria mellea - Oak root fungus, is the cause of the rot.
EXHIBIT - D
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
7 At approximately 8 feet above ground, on the southwest side of the trunk there was another decay area that was almost closed over with scar tissue. Although almost closed, I suspected a large area of decay behind the scar. See Appendix A - Photographs – Photo 7. There was a large scaffold branch attached to the trunk above the scar. It had a desiccated fungal fruiting body growing on it and cankers had killed strips of bark near the fungus. See Appendix A - Photographs – Photo 8. I identified the fungi genus to be that of Inonotus. Jessie A. Glaeser and Kevin T. Smith in the winter 2010 issue of Western Arborist, note this fungus to cause a whiterot of heartwood in the trunk of living oaks and also decays strips or sections of sapwood, forming elongate cankers and killing the cambium. According to Swiecki, T. J.; Bernhardt, E. A. 2006, A Field Guide to Insects and Diseases of California Oaks, “Inonotus dryophilus is one of the most serious pathogens of living oaks in California associated with decline, failure, and mortality”. In this tree, the combined weakened trunk area at the scar combined with the heavy, decayed scaffold branch make this section of the tree likely to fail.
In the upper canopy at approximately 14’ above ground there was another decay cavity in the center of the canopy, where a large scaffold branch had failed many years ago. I suspected advanced decay in the trunk at this location. See Appendix A - Photographs - Photo 9 Advanced Level 3 Inspection -
During the aerial inspection, it was discovered that the opening of the decayed scaffold in the upper canopy was 13” in diameter. The depth of the cavity was 13’2” deep. When the distance to the ground from the outside of the cavity was measured, it was 14’3”, which illustrated that the entire trunk of the tree was hollow. See Appendix A - Photographs – Photos 9 -14.
From the cavity opening, the decay continued upward into the scaffold branch growing east.
This scaffold is very likely to fail due to weak trunk structure. See Appendix A - Photographs – Photo 12.
Based on the decay detected during mallet sounding, I wanted to investigate the extent of the decay further. I performed an advanced inspection for decay using a Resistograph. I took 6 measurements of the wood density of the trunk at 3.5’ above ground unless otherwise indicated.
o Sample 1 – west side of tree. Outer shell thickness was 8” o Sample 2 – south side of tree, 1’ west of decay cavity, outer shell thickness was 8.5” o Sample 3 – south side of tree at decay cavity seam, outer shell thickness was 3” at 3’ above ground.
o Sample 4 – south side of tree, 1’ east of decay cavity, outer shell thickness was 7.25” o Sample 5 – east side of tree, outer shell thickness was 5.5” o Sample 6 – north side of tree, outer shell thickness was 12” I have highlighted the tables below to show how risk was determined for the part or parts of the tree that was being considered regarding failure potential.
I used the International Society of Arboriculture’s Basic Tree Risk Assessment Form to determine risk for this tree.

8 Part Assessed - Trunk
In Matrix 1 the “Likelihood Matrix” I selected Likelihood of Failure of the trunk as Probable.
The Likelihood of impacting a target in a built environment would be High. The resulting Likelihood of Impact was Likely, which I entered into Matrix 2, the “Risk Rating Matrix” in the Likelihood of Failure and Impact section. Under Consequences of Failure in Matrix 2, I entered Severe. The Likelihood of the Failure and Impact rating combined with the Consequences of Failure resulted in a risk rating of High.
Part Assessed – Scaffold Branches
In Matrix 1 the “Likelihood Matrix” I selected Likelihood of Failure of the scaffold branches as Probable. The Likelihood of impacting a target in a built environment would be High. The resulting Likelihood of Impact was Likely, which I entered into Matrix 2, the “Risk Rating Matrix” for the Likelihood of Failure and Impact section. Under Consequences of Failure in Matrix 2, I entered Severe. The Likelihood of Failure and Impact rating combined with the Consequences of Failure resulted in a risk rating of High.
Combined Inspection Results and Risk AssessmentThe highest risk rating for this tree was High and was associated with trunk and scaffold branch failure. Significant decay was detected in the trunk and eastern scaffold branch.
EXHIBIT - D
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
9 Based on shell strength measurements, and the void caused by decay on the south side of the tree, the trunk is likely to fail due to lack of structural integrity. In regard to the eastern scaffold branch and other decayed branches, they could be removed, and end-weight could be reduced to relieve some stress on remaining scaffold branches. However, the reduction of the canopy would be close to 50% and would compromise the health of the tree. Further, since the trunk is not structurally sound, this negates the mitigation measure.
Mitigation: Remove tree before commencement of construction. No structural support or bracing will help the stability of the tree’s trunk.
Tree 3 – A 47” diameter valley oak was in Very Poor condition. When I sounded the trunk with a rubber mallet, it resounded hollow on the southwest side. A large wound left by a scaffold branch failure in the crown of the tree has since decayed and left a 3’x 4’ hollow at approximately 14’ above ground on the east side of tree. Another decay cavity on the north side of the tree at the same height as the previous, measured approximately 2’ in diameter.
Remaining scaffold was overextended and attached to the decaying trunk. The remaining parts of this tree have a high likelihood of failure. See Appendix A - Photographs – Photos 15 & 16.
Mitigation: Remove tree before commencing project.
• Tree 4 – A 52” diameter valley oak was in Very Poor condition. The tree was growing off-site but had critical root zone (CRZ) and crown encroachments into your proposed construction area.
This tree has had several large scaffold branch failures. At the failure points, significant decay was visible. The remaining scaffolds were overextended and potentially had similar internal decay and had a high likelihood of failure. See Appendix A - Photographs – Photo 17.
Mitigation: I highly recommend removal of this tree due to the advancement of decay in the scaffold branches which is compromising their structural integrity. Crown reduction needed to reduce the risk of scaffold branches failing would take up to 50% of the live canopy and jeopardize the tree’s health. Because this tree is off site, you will need to coordinate with the owner regarding removal.
At minimum this tree should have all overextended branches reduced to help prevent further failures and protect any buildings or other targets you may place on your property within striking distance of the tree. If the owner of the tree chooses to retain it, you will need to design buildings, service and loading zones outside of the CRZ. • Tree 9 – A 51” diameter valley oak was in Very Poor condition. Multiple large scaffold branches had failed. Extensive decay was present at branch failure points. Only 2 overextended scaffold branches remain, and they are connected to a decaying trunk.
When I sounded the trunk with a rubber mallet, it resounded hollow. A 3’ long by 10” wide decay cavity was on the northeast side of trunk. This tree has a high risk of complete failure. See Appendix A - Photographs – Photos 18 & 19.
Mitigation: Remove tree before commencing project.
EXHIBIT - D
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
10 • Tree 10 – A 51” diameter valley oak was in Good condition. The trunk of the tree resounded solid when sounded with a rubber mallet. Tree form was good, but there was some large dead wood and decaying scaffolds. This tree can be retained, but it should have maintenance pruning performed prior to commencement of your project. See Appendix A - Photographs – Photos 20 & 21.
Mitigation: Reduce end-weight on overextended branches. Remove dead wood 2” diameter and larger. Remove decayed and structurally unsound scaffold branches. • Tree 11 – A 30” diameter valley oak was in Very Poor condition. The tree was in severe decline due to drought stress and root disease. Many of the smaller branches had died. I detected decay at the root crown on the southwest side of the tree. I found an ant nest at the root-crown decay area indicating ants are excavating and nesting in dead roots and root crown.
The dead roots contribute to the decline of the canopy and compromise the stability of the tree.
At least five, 12” average diameter scaffolds had extensive decay on the east side of the tree. To reduce scaffold failure risk, up to 50% of the live canopy would need to be removed, which would compromise the health of and already unhealthy tree. See Appendix A - Photographs – Photos 22-24.
Mitigation: Remove tree prior do commencement of project. • Tree 13 – A 42” diameter valley oak was in Poor condition.
Basic Level 2 Inspection –
The tree had a full canopy with a balanced form. On the south side of the tree at the root crown, there was an area of decay in the underside of one of the anchor roots. Like trees 1 and 2, the decay is likely caused by Armillaria mellea. I also noted the lower trunk was bulging and larger than normal which may indicate butt-rot caused by A. mellea. Further, I observed that the eastern scaffold branch was decayed, and large dead wood was present throughout the canopy.
See Appendix A - Photographs – Photos 25 - 28.
A previous report, by another arborist, expressed concern that a scar at the base of the tree might indicate decay and structural instability. When I sounded the tree’s trunk with a rubber mallet, it resounded solid, except on the north side of the trunk. Due to the difference of opinion regarding the structural integrity of the trunk, I performed an advanced inspection for decay using a Resistograph.
Advanced Level 3 Inspection -
I took 5 measurements of the wood density of the trunk at 3.5’ above ground. o Sample 1 – west side of tree. Outer shell thickness was 7” o Sample 2 – south side of tree. Outer shell thickness was 8.5” o Sample 3 – east side of tree. Outer shell thickness was 8.5” o Sample 4 – east side of tree scarred area on east side of trunk approximately 1’ above ground. Outer shell thickness was 12”.
EXHIBIT - D
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
11 o Sample 5 – north side of tree. Outer shell thickness was 5” Like Tree 1, the trunk of this tree had advanced internal decay, however when comparing outer shell thickness, this specimen had thicker walls and did not have indications of trunk fibers buckling, therefore its structural integrity is likely stronger.
Tree Risk - I used the International Society of Arboriculture’s Basic Tree Risk Assessment Form to determine the risk. I used Matrix 1 the “Likelihood Matrix” on the form and entered the result into Matrix 2, the “Risk Rating Matrix” to get the overall risk rating.
I have highlighted the tables below to show how risk was determined for the part or parts of the tree that was being considered regarding failure potential.
Part Assessed - Root
In Matrix 1 the “Likelihood Matrix” I selected Likelihood of Failure of the roots as Possible.
The Likelihood of impacting a target in a built environment would be High. The resulting Likelihood of Impact was Somewhat Likely, which I entered into Matrix 2, the “Risk Rating Matrix” for the Likelihood of Failure and Impact section. Under Consequences of Failure in Matrix 2, I entered Severe. The Likelihood of Failure and Impact rating combined with the Consequences of Failure resulted in a risk rating of Moderate.
Part Assessed – Trunk
In Matrix 1 the “Likelihood Matrix” I selected Likelihood of Failure of the scaffold branches as Probable. The Likelihood of impacting a target in a built environment would be High. The resulting Likelihood of Impact was Likely, which I entered into Matrix 2, the “Risk Rating Matrix” for the Likelihood of Failure and Impact section. Under Consequences of Failure in Matrix 2, I entered Severe. The Likelihood of Failure and Impact rating combined with the Consequences of Failure resulted in a risk rating of High.

12 Part Assessed – Scaffold Branches
In Matrix 1 the “Likelihood Matrix” I selected Likelihood of Failure of the scaffold branches as Probable. The Likelihood of impacting a target in a built environment would be High. The resulting Likelihood of Impact was Likely, which I entered into Matrix 2, the “Risk Rating Matrix” for the Likelihood of Failure and Impact section. Under Consequences of Failure in Matrix 2, I entered Severe. The Likelihood of Failure and Impact rating combined with the Consequences of Failure resulted in a risk rating of High.
Combined Inspections Results and Risk AssessmentThe highest risk rating for this tree was High and was associated with scaffold and trunk failure. I found decay in one anchor root and significant decay was detected in the trunk, however no bulging of trunk fibers was evident. Based on shell strength measurements, the likelihood of trunk failure is probable due to lack of structural integrity. Scaffold failure was also probable.
Risk of root failure remained moderate.
Mitigation:
Mitigations are meant to reduce risk without compromising the health of the tree. Ultimately, the tree manager, owner or other controlling entity must decide if the residual risk assessed is reasonable.
EXHIBIT - D
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
13 Scaffolds - Reducing the canopy through end weight reduction and removing decayed and branches 2” diameter and larger will relieve some stress on remaining scaffold branches and reduce their risk to Moderate.
Roots - Reducing the canopy through end weight reduction will relieve some stress on roots, however due to the overall weight of the canopy and stem, the risk rating for root failure will remain Moderate.
Trunk - Canopy reduction will relieve some stress on the trunk of the tree, however it will not likely be enough to lower trunk failure risk to moderate. If this tree is to be retained, and the goal is to reduce the risk rating, the only reasonable way to achieve that goal will be to restrict access by installing a permanent fence around it. The fence shall be a minimum of 4.5’ tall and be set at least to the edge of the canopy dripline. Once access is restricted, the risk rating will be Moderate.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EL PASO DE ROBLES DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: Recitals. All of the above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.
Section 2: Findings. Based upon the facts and analysis presented in the staff report, public testimony received, and subject to the conditions listed below, the City Council makes the following findings:
1. The proposed subdivision is designed, to the extent feasible, to provide for passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities because both lots are substantial in size and provide opportunities for the building to be designed in a manner that achieves passive heating or cooling. All buildings will be required to meet the energy efficiency requirements of the California Building Codes for commercial, light industrial and warehouse type buildings.
2. The subdivision and the provisions for its design and improvement are consistent with the general plan for the City of El Paso de Robles ("General Plan"), and the City of El Paso de Robles zoning ordinance (“Zoning Ordinance”), because:
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
Attachment 10
a. The Tentative Tract Map provides for land uses compatible with the commercial lightindustrial land use classifications, and the provisions for design and improvements promote the goals and objectives of the General Plan because it provides for two large parcels that can accommodate campus-like industrial development in an area for attractive businesses and industries; and
b. The Tentative Tract Map provides for land uses compatible with the C3-PD zoning district, and the provisions for design and improvements comply with the implementation policies and objectives of the Zoning Ordinance because the proposed parcels meet the minimum lot size requirement and would not create any lots without street frontage.
3. The subject site is physically suitable for the type and density of development proposed in the Tentative Tract Map because the resulting parcels would meet the minimum lot size requirement of the zoning district.
4. The subdivision design and improvements proposed in the Tentative Tract Map are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage nor substantially injure fish or wildlife or their habitat because there are no significant drainage features, riparian habitat, or wetlands that were observed on the site.
5. The subdivision design and type of improvements proposed in the Tentative Tract Map are not likely to cause serious public health problems because all development and public improvements will be performed per the requirements of all applicable standards and codes, including the zoning and building codes.
6. The subdivision design and type of improvements proposed in the Tentative Tract Map will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of the subject site because the tract map acknowledges existing easements for road purposes.
7. As conditioned, the design of lots, streets, open space, drainage, sewers, water, and other improvements is consistent with the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance since the map requires all utilities including sewer and water to be extended to serve all parcels.
8. The discharge of waste into an existing sewer system from development proposed in the Tentative Tract Map will not cause a violation of existing requirements prescribed by the local water quality control board because all buildings within the subdivision will be required to hook up to the existing public sewer system that exists in the streets adjacent to this project.
Section 3: Environmental Determination. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000 et seq., “CEQA”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal. Code of Regulations §§ 15000 et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines), the City prepared an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (SCH #2023090132) (“MND”) that analyzed the proposed Project’s environmental impacts. The MND was made available to the public for review from September 11, 2023 through October 10, 2023. On October 10, 2023, the City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing and considered the entire administrative record (as of that date), including staff reports, the MND, Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan (“MMRP”), and oral and written testimony from interested persons, all of whom were given an opportunity to be heard. Resolution No. 2023-__ recommends adoption of the MND and MMRP, and, among other things, properly assesses the environmental impact of the Project in accordance with CEQA. This Resolution incorporates by reference the environmental findings and analysis set forth in Resolution 2023-__, including the MND and MMRP, as if fully set forth herein.
Section 4: Recommendation for Approval. The City Council approves Vesting Tentative Tract Map PR 22-0054, subject to the following:

From: Elizabeth Wagner Hull, City Attorney
Ty Lewis, City Manager
Subject: Introduction and first reading of an Ordinance Amending Paso Robles Municipal Code Chapter 12.42, Parking Management, to clarify the process for setting parking rates, reestablishing the Downtown Parking Zone and other clean up measures.
Report back by City Manager on implementation of new parking rates and provide direction to staff regarding a refund process for parking fees paid in the Downtown Parking Zone from February 6, 2023, to February 6, 2024 pursuant to the period authorized under the Government Claims Act.
CEQA Determination: The City finds that this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section , §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)- (3), 15378.
Date: February 20, 2024
Facts
1. On October 16, 2018, the City Council heard the first reading of an ordinance revising Paso Robles Municipal Code Chapter 12.42, among other sections, to address charging for parking pursuant to Vehicle Code (“VC”) Section 22508.
2. Following the first reading of the ordinance City staff, community members and an Ad Hoc Committee met to consider comments made by the community at the first reading and recommended minor revisions to the ordinance.
3. On November 6, 2018, the City Council approved the second reading and adopted the ordinance (the “2018 Parking Management Ordinance”) incorporating the minor modifications recommended by the Ad Hoc committee and the community following the first reading.
4. Between November 2018 and May 2019, City staff continued to meet internally and with the community regarding the implementation of the new parking program.
5. On May 7, 2019, the City Council heard a Downtown Parking update and, by motion recorded as a minute action, approved two hours of free parking in the area from 10th St to 14th St and Spring St to Pine St (“Downtown Parking Zone”), between 9 a.m. – 6 p.m., Monday-Friday, with paid parking to be initiated when and where appropriate after two hours (“Paid Parking Program”).
6. On May 21, 2019, the City Council approved agreements with vendors to implement the Paid Parking Program.
7. In August 2019, the City began charging for parking pursuant to the Paid Parking Program.
8. Between August 2019 and May 2022, the Downtown Parking Advisory Commission and community continued to review aspects of the Paid Parking Program. In May 2022, the City Council disbanded the Downtown Parking Advisory Commission.
9. On March 16, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution 21-035, which extended the Paid Parking Program to operate Monday-Sunday, from 9 a.m. – 8 p.m. each day.
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
10. Between December 2022 and November 2023, the City Council heard numerous items related to the Paid Parking Program designed to assess the implementation and fiscal impacts of the Paid Parking Program.
11. On November 21, 2023, the City Council approved, by motion and recorded as a minute action, charging $1 per hour starting at minute 1 within the Downtown Parking Zone, allowing unlimited senior permits for City residents, and the design and ordering of new signage. The Council also requested the City Manager to return with any additional actions requiring Council action to implement the revisions to the Paid Parking Program and to provide an update to the Council.
12. Following that action a number of community members asserted the City did not have the ability to charge for parking in the downtown area because the City did not have an ordinance addressing the imposition of parking rates.
13. In response to the community concerns the City Attorney’s office conducted a review of the City’s existing Parking Management Ordinance, PRMC 12.42, and all actions taken since its adoption to confirm that the parking program was implemented consistent with the requirements of the Vehicle Code and the City’s own ordinance. .
14. Following an initial review of the implementation of Municipal Code Chapter 12.42 the City paused charging for parking and issuing citations associated with parking in the Downtown Parking Zone effective February 7, 2024.
Options
1. Take no action ;
2. Introduce for first reading by title only, an ordinance of the City Council of the City of El Paso de Robles amending Chapter 12.42 of Title 12 of the Paso Robles Municipal Code to clarify the process for setting parking rates, reestablishing the Downtown Parking Zone and other clean up measures; provide feedback to the City Manager on the implementation and signage for the new rates (once effective); and provide direction to staff regarding the proposed refund of parking fees collected from February 6, 2023 to February 6, 2024.
3. Provide alternative direction to staff.
Analysis and Conclusions
Review of Downtown Paid Parking Program by City Attorney The City has maintained downtown parking and associated paid parking rates, with varying structures, for many years. Chapters 12.38, 12.42 and 12.45 of the City’s Municipal Code all include codified local law adopted by ordinance relevant to City’s downtown parking. More recently, on November 21, 2023, City Council had a properly agendized discussion on the future of downtown parking in response to the findings and recommendations of the City Council ad hoc, which was created to consider changes to the downtown parking program. At that meeting, by a 3-2 roll call vote, the City Council decided (as described within the adopted minutes for that meeting): “to charge $1 per hour from minute one of the [downtown] parking session; to allow unlimited senior parking permits for residents over 65 years old within the City limits for one vehicle per household; to continue all other existing parking regulations; to direct staff to improve the signage and kiosks; and to direct staff to bring back any other required future formal action items related to parking” (the “November Parking Action”).
Following that action concerns were raised suggesting the City’s November Parking Action violated State law. Specifically, it has been asserted that Vehicle Code section 22508(a) required the Council to have noticed and approved an ordinance to properly effectuate the November Parking Action. In response to those concerns the City Attorney reviewed the adoption of the Parking Management Ordinance in 2018 and the actions taken by the City since that time to implement the Parking Management Ordinance. As
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
described below, the assertion that the November Parking Action violated state law is incorrect. However, the review of actions implementing the 2018 Ordinance uncovered that the Downtown Parking Zone was not established correctly.
VC 22508 provides, in part, that a city “shall not establish parking meter zones of fix the rates for those zones except by ordinance. The rate of fees may be variable, based upon criteria identified by the local authority in the ordinance. An ordinance establishing a parking meter zone shall describe the area that would be included within the zone.”
The City adopted the 2018 Parking Management Ordinance to comply with VC 22508. The 2018 Ordinance provides for the establishment of parking meter zones, provides criteria to establish the variable rate of fees charged, and provides that parking meter zones were to be adopted by subsequent ordinance or resolution. After much public engagement and input the Paid Parking Program was designed to delegate authority to City Manager regarding time limits and parking rates based upon variable criteria. As adopted by the Council, and presently in effect, the 2018 Parking Management Ordinance sets forth a regulatory system which provides that within parameters set by the Council, the City Manager is authorized to set time limits and rates pursuant to his judgement to achieve the 85% parking utilization rate. Achieving the 85% parking utilization rate is the goal set by the Council.
Based upon the delegated authority within the City’s ordinance, the November 21, 2023 action was consistent with the 2018 Parking Management Ordinance. However, during the review of the matter by the City Attorney, it was discovered that the footprint of the Downtown Parking Zone was created by motion and recorded in the minutes (on May 7, 2019) and, was not created by ordinance or resolution as required by Municipal Code section 12.42.020. As a result, it has been determined that the Downtown Parking Zone was not appropriately formed. The City Manager, in consultation with the City Attorney, determined that pausing the enforcement of the downtown parking program was appropriate until the Downtown Parking Zone could be reestablished consistent with the Municipal Code requirements. As such, the City paused the collection of parking fees in the Downtown Parking Zone effective February 7, 2024. In addition, the City has voided all parking citations received and unpaid prior to that date. The Parking Program will remain paused until the City Council has adopted an ordinance amending PRMC Chapter 12.42, Parking Management, to clarify the Downtown Parking Zone.
Modification to PRMC Chapter 12.42, Parking Management
During the review of the Downtown Paid Parking Program and in light of the confusion resulting from the structure of the ordinance, the following revisions to Chapter 12.42 are recommended to the Council. The recommendations, though not required to be compliant with VC Section 22508, are intended to make clarifying changes to the ordinance and codify the area covered by the Downtown Parking Zone. The modifications describe the Council approved range of parking rates from $1-$5 per hour. The City Manager is then authorized to modify the charged rate and time limits to facilitate achieving the desired 85% utilization rate. VC 22508 does not require the local ordinance to set a definitive parking rate. Rather, it allows for the local ordinance to provide that the rate of fees may be variable based upon criteria in the local ordinance. The proposed modifications to PRMC 12.42 reiterate the intent of the 2018 Parking Management Ordinance but more clearly establish the parameters and criteria by which the parking rates may be modified in the future without amending the ordinance. Additionally, a provision has been added to clarify the basis for the Senior Parking Permit Program pursuant to VC 22507. Specifically, the changes are:
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
12.42.020 Parking zones.
A. Parking zones shall be established by the city council by ordinance or resolution, which may include the establishment of time limits and/or parking rates for such zones.
B. The City Council does hereby establish the Downtown Parking Zone which shall include the area extending from 10th Street to 14th Street, from Spring Street to Pine Street and the 900 block of both 12th and 13th Streets (from Pine Street to Railroad Street).
12.42.060 Overparking—Exceptions.
It shall be unlawful for any person, except outside of the designated parking zone hours and days of operation, to cause, allow, permit, or suffer any vehicle registered in his/her name or operated or controlled by him/her to be parked in any parking space upon any street within a parking zone or within a parking lot as indicated by proper signs placed in such zone or lot indicating the maximum parking time allowed in such parking space. A vehicle will be deemed to have been parked longer than the posted time limit, if it has not been moved at least "out of the parking zone" or parking lot after the expiration of the maximum time limitation indicated on the posted signage. A The specific parking zone for which local parking regulations apply is defined as the parking zonewill be indicated on posted signage. A vehicle may not return to the initial parking zone or parking lot sooner than two hours following the expiration of the initial time period. Within parameters set by the city council, the city manager or their designee may set and adjust the parking zones, posted time limits, and/or period of operation of paid parking between the hours of seven o'clock a.m. and ten o'clock p.m. on any day, with the intent of achieving the target utilization rate of eighty-five percent.
12.42.070 Parking zone regulations – Authority.
B. All parking zone time limits and/or paid parking rates heretofore established shall be and remain in effect unless otherwise set or adjusted by the city council. The city council establishes that a paid parking session commences immediately upon parking, as provided in 12.42.080, unless otherwise determined by the city manager, or their designee. The length of time allowed for a timed parking session for each parking area shall be established by the city manager, or their designee, and range of time limits limits from a minimum of fifteen minutes to a maximum of ten hours. The city manager, or their designee, shall set the time limit of each parking zone, consistent with achieving the eighty-five percent target utilization rate, based upon parking occupancy data and community input. The city manager, or their designee, may designate certain parking spots as a maximum of 15 minutes and, if determined by the city manager, or their designee, to be consistent with achieving the 85% parking utilization rate or in the best interest of the community, provide that those designated parking spots do not require payment.
C. Under the authority of California Vehicle Code section 22508, the City Council establishes a range of hourly parking rates from $1.00 to $5.00. The City Manager, or their designee, shall set the rate of the parking zones within that range consistent with achieving the 85 percent target utilization.
D. Under the authority of California Vehicle Code section 22507, the city council may establish preferential parking privileges associated with any Parking Zone or other area by ordinance or resolution with provisions reasonable and necessary to ensure the effectiveness of a preferential parking program.
Implementation of November 21, 2023 Action
As described above, at the November 21, 2023, Council meeting, by a 3-2 roll call vote, the City Council decided: “to charge $1 per hour from minute one of the [downtown] parking session; to allow unlimited
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
senior parking permits for residents over 65 years old within the City limits for one vehicle per household; to continue all other existing parking regulations; to direct staff to improve the signage and kiosks; and to direct staff to bring back any other required future formal action items related to parking.” Additionally, the Council requested the City Manager return to the Council to provide an update on the new signage and related matters.
Following the effective date of the modifications to PRMC 12.42, if adopted by the Council, the City will proceed with an education program to ensure the public is aware of the changes to the program. New signage will be installed and parking ambassadors will be available to update the public on the new program. If adopted the modifications to PRMC 12.42 would be effective on Friday, April 5, 2024 (30 days following a second reading on March 5, 2024). Between the adoption of the changes to PRMC 12.42, City staff will be working with the community to educate them on the new parking program prior to its implementation on April 5, 2024.
Effective April 5, 2024, the Downtown Parking Zone cost for parking would be $1 per hour. Although the previous rate structure was generally achieving a utilization rate between 75-85% busy days exceeded the 85% threshold. Additionally, as has been previously presented to the Council, the two hour free parking has been technologically difficult to implement. This revised rate structure is anticipated to achieve a similar utilization rate and, as a flat rate will be less confusing for the public, will result in a system that is easier to implement for staff and consistent with the technological capabilities of the kiosk/meter system.
Based upon the foregoing, its implementation will be consistent with the ordinance.
Additionally, if this ordinance is approved by the Council tonight, staff will return with a resolution, at the same meeting as the second reading of the ordinance is heard, to memorialize the senior parking permit program. Specifically, the resolution will implement modifications to expand the program consistent with the direction from the City Council at the November 21, 2023 meeting.
Consideration of Refunds for Parking Payments Received
Although the City has not received any valid claims for a refund of downtown parking fees, it seems appropriate to provide an opportunity for customers who paid for parking to apply for and receive a refund. Under the Government Claims Act, claims for overpayment of fees may only reach back to payments for the prior one year.
As such, staff is seeking direction from the City Council regarding providing a refund and, if the Council would like to voluntarily provide refunds in lieu of requiring people to file a claim under the Government Claims Act, an appropriate refund mechanism for the parking fees collected and citations issued within the 12 months prior to the downtown parking program being paused. Staff envisions a refund process including the following components:
A refund payment to customers who can demonstrate through credit card charge or other mechanism a payment for parking (fees or citation) between February 6, 2023, and February 6, 2024.
The amount of the refund would be the amount demonstrated paid by the customer during that period.
To receive the refund the customer will be required to sign a waiver agreeing not bring a claim/lawsuit arising from the imposition of Downtown Parking fees prior to February 7, 2024.
This waiver will be included on the claim form provided by the City to process the refund. The claim form will be available on the City’s website or by hardcopy at City Hall.
City Council Agenda February 20, 2024
A city website announcement of the refund process.
Customers would have 120 days to complete and return the refund form to the City from the date the City website goes live with information on the refund process.
Fiscal Impact
The total cost to manage and operate the downtown parking program is approximately $500,000 per year.
Because of the significant start-up costs associated with the technology and kiosks of the parking program, City Council approved a General Fund loan to the Parking Program until program revenues were sufficient to operate independently. As of February 15, 2024, the loan balance is approximately $511,500. If City Council were to not reestablish the downtown parking program, the program would be dissolved, and the General Fund loan written off.
The fiscal impacts regarding the refunds for the parking fees and citations issued within the 12 months prior to the downtown parking program being paused is significant. Over the past year, there have been 62,445 parking sessions, totaling $177,000, and 7,688 parking citations, totaling $384,000. As such, assuming that 100% of the people who paid for parking during the past year complete and return a claim form, the refund would have a fiscal impact of approximately $561,000. However, this will be very time intensive and additional resources will be needed to handle the potential influx of 60,000+ requests for refunds. This would further exacerbate the loss to the General Fund mentioned above.
CEQA
The City finds that this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section §§15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378.
Recommendation
It is recommended that City Council take the following actions:
1. Introduce for first reading by title only, an ordinance of the City Council of the City of El Paso de Robles amending Chapter 12.42 of Title 12 of the Paso Robles Municipal Code to clarify the process for setting parking rates, reestablishing the Downtown Parking Zone and other clean up measures.
2. Receive the report from the City Manager on the implementation and signage for the new downtown parking program (once effective).
3. Direct staff to implement the proposed process as outlined in this report to provide refunds of parking fees collected and citations from February 6, 2023 to February 6, 2024.
