PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #9.H
Meeting Date: December 2, 2025
TITLE:
No-Access Easements at the Terminus of Ridge Road; Determination of Exemption under CEQA
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution accepting no-access easements at the terminus of Ridge Road, ratifying the City Manager’s execution of the easement deeds, and making a determination of exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act.
DISCUSSION:
Prior to the November 2014 General Election, the City’s General Plan showed a planned inland arterial road connecting Price Canyon Road to Oak Park Road, traversing “Planning Area R,” an area commonly known as Spanish Springs which lies outside city limits but within the City’s sphere of influence, as well as extensions of City streets Highland Drive, Ventana Drive, and Ridge Road past the City limit line to connect to the planned arterial.
In November 2014, the voters approved initiative Measure H-2014, which amended the City’s General Plan with respect to Planning Area R in a number of regards, including the removal of the planned inland arterial and City street extensions. Since the inland arterial and connections were no longer in the City’s General Plan, a number of City streets were no longer needed for vehicular traffic into Planning Area R.
The termini, at the City limit line, of Highland Drive and Ventana Drive, among other streets, were closed by the City Council on November 27, 2018, via Resolution R-2018- 093; Ridge Road was not closed at that time.
The end of Ridge Road differs from the ends of Highland and Ventana Drives in that residential parcels both inside and outside the city take their access from the street cul de sac at the end of Ridge Road. The cul de sac also provides access to the City’s Pismo Oaks water reservoir, which lies on a private parcel just outside the city, via an easement.
The parcel configuration is shown in Figure 1 below.
Council Agenda 12-2-2025 9.H-1
Figure 1. Ridge Road Cul-de-Sac
On August 6, 2024, staff presented the City Council with options for treatment of the terminus of Ridge Road at the City limit line, and the Council directed staff to explore the possibility of vacating a small portion of the roadway at the City limit line such that access to the existing uses would be preserved, but through vehicular traffic would be prohibited, without the need for closure of the roadway.
On October 1, 2024, the City Council received further information from staff about this option, and directed staff to proceed with the partial vacation of the roadway, as well as obtaining “no-access” easements from the private property owners. Through further analysis and discussion, staff determined that vacating right-of-way was not necessary, simplifying the process. Staff subsequently determined that the granting of no-access easements by the owners of 279-281 Ridge Road (APN 079-261-001) and 251 Ridge Road would be sufficient to accomplish the Council’s directive.
The granting of the necessary “no access” easements has been successfully negotiated with the property owners who take their access from the terminus of Ridge Road, and the easement deeds have been executed by the City Manager, to include the following:
The owners of 279-281 Ridge Road have granted to the City a “no-access” easement for the purpose of preventing public vehicular access or construction of publicly accessible roadways across their property. The easement prohibits the APN 079-261-001
251 RIDGE
ROAD
RIDGE
ROAD
Council Agenda 12-2-2025 9.H-2
owners, the City, or any other person or entity from constructing a publicly accessible roadway across the easement.
The owners of 251 Ridge Road have granted to the City a “no-access” easement for the same purpose. The City already has a durable easement for accessing its water tank on the private parcel on the immediate other side of the City limit line, and no additional action is needed to preserve that access.
Environmental
The City has reviewed this resolution with respect to applicability of the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq., CEQA). Staff has determined that the maintenance of the status quo regarding current access and the prohibition on future access does not have the potential for creating a significant effect on the environment and is therefore exempt from further review under CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) because it is not a project as defined by the CEQA Guidelines Section 15378. Adoption of this resolution and accepting these easement deeds does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.
Conclusion and Recommendation
In order to effect the Council’s direction of prohibiting public vehicular access beyond the terminus of Ridge Road while preserving access for the existing uses there, staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) accepting “no- access” easement deeds in favor of the City from the neighboring property owners at 279- 281 Ridge Road and 251 Ridge Road, and ratifying the City Manager’s execution of the same.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact from staff’s recommended action.
