Should a Patrol overtime assignment remain vacant following the use of the Short-Notice Overtime procedure (12.2.1), the Supervisor shall begin a (mandatory) call-out.
The (mandatory) call-out process (12.2.2) is as follows:
Starting with the least senior officer, and working through to the most senior officer, vacant overtime assignments will be assigned. There will be one officer assigned per vacancy, making sure the officer has had at least one (1) day (twenty-four (24) consecutive hours) off in the previous seven (7) days. Once the vacancies are filled, proper notifications will be sent to the officers.
NOTE: While attempting to fill the vacant overtime assignments, the supervisor shall take into consideration the officers’ availability to fill the vacant overtime assignment. Employees with preapproved vacations, modified duty assignments, leave of absence, or light duty assignments, shall not be scheduled to fill vacant overtime assignments. Using these guidelines, the supervisor will determine if an employee is eligible to work an overtime assignment.
ALSO NOTE: If any officer proactively signs up for a full (10-hour/12.5-hour), vacant, patrol overtime assignment (that is a potential mandatory overtime assignment), and successfully completes that assignment, they will receive a “skip.” A “skip” allows an officer to be skipped*, should they be selected for a vacant overtime assignment, in the future, utilized by this procedure. “Skips” cannot be banked/stored. “Skips” shall be used the first opportunity that arises. For purposes of this section only, skipped shall be defined as bypassing the ineligible officer and moving to the next available officer on the list.
If an officer is assigned an overtime assignment and is unavailable to work it, as a result of a conflict not covered in this procedure (e.g., sick), it will be the officer’s responsibility to find coverage for the overtime assignment. If more than one officer wishes to trade overtime assignments, it will be all the involved parties’ responsibility to communicate that to their respective Supervisors.
The list shall remain in effect for one shift rotation (six (6) months).
The side letter is included as Attachment 2.
RESOLUTION B - CALPERS REPORTABLE COMPENSATION
In July 7, 2018, Rocklin Police Officers’ Association (RPOA) Safety and Miscellaneous PEPRA employees agreed to contribute an additional three percent (3%) of the CalPERS reportable compensation towards the City’s contribution. This agreement also included that if the CalPERS PEPRA employee contribution rate increased, then the additional employee contribution paid towards the City’s retirement contribution shall be reduced by the same percentage.
Effective July 1, 2023, CalPERS increased the employee contribution rate for PEPRA employees (previously 6.75% for miscellaneous and 13% for safety) to 8.25% for the 20 miscellaneous employees and 13.75% for safety employees.
On July 21, 2023, the City was notified by a CalPERS Representatives that the MOU wording in Article 27.4 is no longer compliant with California Government Code Section 20516 because it does not specifically state the exact percentage of the member compensation that shall be paid by employees.
Representatives of the City and the Union have met and conferred and mutually agree to the new provisions to MOU to ensure compliance with the above referenced government code.
The agreed upon language is below:
Section III, Article 27, 27.4 PEPRA Employees Retirement Member Contribution
PEPRA employees will make employee contributions as required by State law and as determined by CalPERS. In addition, effective July 7, 2018, PEPRA miscellaneous employees shall contribute an additional three percent (3%) of their CalPERS reportable compensation towards the employer's retirement contribution, and PEPRA safety employees shall contribute an additional three percent (3%) of their CalPERS reportable compensation towards the employer's retirement contribution. If the required employee contribution for PEPRA employees (currently 6.25% for miscellaneous and 12.00% for safety) increases in the future, the additional employee contribution paid towards the employer's retirement contribution (i.e., additional 3% for miscellaneous and 3% for safety) shall be reduced by the same percentage until eliminated. At that point, PEPRA employees will only pay the employee share required by State law and determined by CalPERS (i.e., fifty percent (50%) of the normal cost) and will not contribute an additional amount towards the employer share.
Given the recent CalPERS increase to the employee contribution for PEPRA employees (previously 6.75% for miscellaneous and 13% for safety), effective July 1, 2023, the miscellaneous employees rate increased to 8.25% and the safety employees rate increased to
13.75%. Employee cost-sharing for RPOA employees per the MOU must change as well, previously 2.50% for miscellaneous PEPRA employees, and 2.00% for safety employees.
The new cost-sharing amounts, effective July 1, 2023, will be 1.00% for PEPRA miscellaneous employees and 1.25% for PEPRA safety employees.
Effective July 1, 2023, PEPRA Miscellaneous employees’ cost-sharing amount shall reduce by one and five tenths (1.5%) percent toward the employer’s retirement contribution and PEPRA safety employees’ cost-sharing amount shall reduce by seventy-five hundredths (0.75%) percent toward the employer’s retirement contribution.
The side letter is attached hereto as Attachment 4.

Staff Report
Subject:
AFSCME Salary Schedule Adoption
Date:
August
8, 2023
Submitted By:
Tameka Usher, Director of Administrative Services
Tameka Usher, Administrative Services
Department:
Administrative Services - Human Resources
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin to Approve Revised Salary Schedules for the Public Service Employees Bargaining Unit.
Background:
Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations, section 570.5 requires the City's salary schedules to be adopted at a public meeting.
In June 2023, the City Council adopted the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Operating Budget. Within the budget, a new position allocation was added to the Community Development Department for a Public Services Business Technician. Given the Public Services Business Technician will no longer be used in just the Public Services Department, Human Resources (HR) staff took the opportunity to revise the classification specification to capture the duties that will be performed for the Community Development Department, and the duties currently performed by the incumbents in the Public Services Department. Additionally, staff recommends the title be changed to Administrative Technician since it will now be used in multiple departments, better reflects the duties performed, and creates a clear class series.
HR staff satisfied the meet and confer process by notifying Public Service Employees Bargaining Unit represented by AFSCME regarding the proposed changes in accordance with the City of Rocklin Employee-Employer Resolution. The Public Service Employees Bargaining Unit did not respond with any input or changes.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no direct fiscal impact to the General Fund from the staff recommendation. The salary range will not be changing with the retitle.

III. Compliance
All employees and agents of the City, including volunteers, are expected to abide by the policies and procedures contained within the IIPP.
50 6
Management is responsible for ensuring that all safety and health policies and procedures are clearly communicated and understood by all employees and volunteers . Managers and supervisors are expected to enforce the rules fairly and uniformly.
All employees, including managers and supervisors, and volunteers are responsible for using safe work practice s, following all directives, policies and procedures, and assisting in maintaining a safe work environment.
The willful violation of City , department , or worksite safety rule s or government regulations may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination. All disciplinary action will be in compliance with the current applicable Personnel Rules and Regulations and/or the applicable memorandum of understanding, resolution, or contract .
The systems to ensure all employees comply with these practices include, but are not limited to:
• Inform employees of the requirements within the City’s IIPP in a readily understandable language. • Train employees on the IIPP, general safety policies, rules, and work practices. • Evaluate compliance with safe work practices and procedures in employee performance evaluations.
• Recognize employees who perform safe and healthful work practices. • Provide additional training to employees whose safety performance is deficient.
IV. Employee Access to the IIPP
City employees or their designated representatives have the right to examine and receive a copy of the City’s IIPP.
This will be accomplished by:
1. Providing access in a reasonable time, place, and manner, but in no event later than five (5) business days after the request for access is received from an employee or designated representative.
Whenever an employee or designated representative requests a copy of the IIPP, the City will provide the requester a printed copy of the IIPP, unless the employee or designated representative agrees to receive an electronic copy of the IIPP.
2. Provide unobstructed access through the HR intranet site which allows the employee to review, print, and download the current version of the IIPP. Link:
https://rocklincalifornia.sharepoint.com/sites/HR/SitePages/Risk%20Management%20and%20S afety.aspx
(Unobstructed access means that the employee, as part of their regular work duties, predictably and routinely uses the electronic means to communicate with management or coworkers.)
An employee must provide written authorization in order to make someone their “designated representative.” A recognized or certified collective bargaining agent will be treated automatically as a designated representative for the purpose of access to the City IIPP.
51 7
The written authorization must include the following information:
• The name and signature of the employee authorizing the designated representative. • The date of the request.
• The name of the designated representative.
• The date upon which the written authorization will expire (if less than 1 year).
V. Communication
The City uses a variety of methods to communicate occupational health and safety information, including:
• Two-way communication between management and staff on actual and perceived safety and health hazards or suggestions for improvement;
• New employee orientation that includes a review of the IIPP and a discussion of safety policies and procedures that the employee is expected to follow, both City-wide and department-specific; • Regularly scheduled safety meetings;
• Workplace safety and health training programs;
• Posted and/or distributed safety notifications all employees and volunteers can access; • Email notifications of occupational health and safety concerns, tips, or other useful information; and
• HR intranet Risk Management & Safety page.
Other appropriate methods of communicating pertinent safety and health information will be implemented as such methods are identified.
Employees are required to immediately report any hazardous conditions to their immediate supervisor. Volunteers must report any hazardous conditions or concerns to their volunteer coordinator, a supervisor, or a manager.
Employees are encouraged to report safety concerns and recommendations for eliminating unsafe practices or conditions in the workplace. While the City prefers safety reports and suggestions to be made in writing, employees may make such suggestions and reports orally. Employees may report a concern or suggestion to their supervisor, the IIPP Administrator, or to other management personnel , who must document the safety suggestion or hazard. The reports will then be prioritized and addressed according to the severity and need to correct.
Employees may report hazards and suggestions anonymously to HR via inter-office mail, or electronically via the HR Risk Management & Safety
intranet page:
https://rocklincalifornia.sharepoint.com/sites/HR/SitePages/Risk%20Management%20and%20Safety.as px.
When safety suggestions or hazards are reported:
• Management will review all safety suggestions and hazard reports. • If an employee's name is included with a hazard report or safety suggestion, the reporting employee will be notified about any non -confidential corrective action that is taken with 52 8
respect to the hazard report or safety suggestion.
No employee shall be disciplined or retaliated against for reporting any potential or actual safety hazards or for making safety suggestions.
VI. Hazard Assessment
Hazards should be identified, evaluated, and corrected as part of the daily work routine and through workplace safety inspections. The City encourages all employees to continuously identify and correct workplace hazards and poor safety practices. Inspections are also used to identify unsafe working conditions and practices.
Safety Inspections:
• Informal Inspections: Informal inspections can be done at any time. Department directors, DSCs, managers, and supervisors are responsible for ensuring informal safety inspections take place in their work areas.
• Scheduled Inspections: DSC will coordinate scheduled safety inspe ctions for each worksite, as required by the worksite’s operations, but in no event less frequently than once per year.
Additional inspections will be conducted:
• When new substances, processes, procedures, or equipment presenting a new safety or health hazard are introduced into the workplace.
• When new or previously unrecognized hazards are recognized. • When occupational injuries and illnesses occur.
• When workplace conditions warrant an inspection.
• When the City hires and/or reassign employees to processes, operations, or tasks for which a hazard evaluation has not been previously conducted.
VII. Accident Reporting and Investigation
All reporting and investigation instructions and forms can be found on the HR Workers’ Compensation intranet page: https://rocklincalifornia.sharepoint.com/sites/HR/SitePages/Workers_Comp.aspx.
Reporting
Employees are required to report all workplace injuries, exposures, or illnesses to their supervisor/manager immediately.
When an occupational injury, exposure, or illness occurs, a Supervisor’s Report of Employee Injury shall be completed within one business day by the employee’s supervisor or manager and submitted to HR.
In the event of a near -miss (i.e., non-injury incident), the incident is still to be investigated and documented on the Supervisor’s Injury/Incident Investigation form.
53 9
Investigation
Supervisors are responsible for investigating all workplace injuries, exposures, and illnesses as soon as practical. For more severe incidents, supplemental investigations may be initiated by HR or other related third-party consultants.
All incidents resulting in injury or exposure will be investigated timely to determine any primary and contributing causes. Any primary and contributing causes for workplace accidents will be documented and analyzed to assist in taking corrective action to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.
All facts, findings, and recommendations uncovered during investigations of w orkplace injuries and illnesses will be documented , generally using the Supervisor's Injury/Incident Investigation form. The department director or designee will review all reports with a view towards determining adequacy of corrective action.
The follow ing is a guideline for responding to a workplace injury and conducting the investigation:
1. Visit the scene of the accident as soon as possible (if safe to do so).
2. Arrange medical attention for the injured employee, if needed.
3. For serious injuries, maintain the scene if safe to do so.
4. Photograph the scene and equipment involved.
5. Interview injured employee(s) and witnesses.
6. Determine root cause and provide corrective actions.
7. Record findings and corrective actions taken. Corrective actions will be tracked by the department director or designee until closed-out.
VIII. Hazard Correction
The City shall correct unsafe or unhealth work conditions, practices, or procedures in a timely manner based on the severity of the hazards. Corrective action for hazards is the responsibility of department directors, managers, and supervisors with assistance from the IIPP Administrator or other designated individuals.
Hazards shall be corrected:
• When hazards are observed or discovered.
• When an imminent hazard exists that cannot be immediately abated without endangering employees and/or property, the City will ensure that all exposed workers are removed from the area except the personnel necessary to correct the hazardous condition. Only personnel who have been provided with the necessary protections, safeguards, and training will be allowed to correct the hazard.
IX. Training and Instruction
All employees, including department directors, managers, and supervisors , will participate in 54 10
training on general and job-specific workplace safety and health practices, including recognizing hazards associated with the specific type of work performed and the procedures to control or minimize those hazards . Training may include online classes or in -person instruction by a supervisor/manager or qualified person.
Training and instruction will be provided:
• When the IIPP is first established and/or substantially amended; • To all new employees;
• To all employees given new job assignments for which training has not previously been received;
• Whenever new substances, processes, procedures, or equipment are introduced to the workplace and represent a new hazard;
• Whenever the City is made aware of a new or previously unrecognized hazard; and • To all supervisors to familiarize them with the safety and health hazards to which employees under their immediate direction and control may be exposed.
X. Recordkeeping
The City is a local government entity and is not required to keep written records of the steps taken to implement and maintain our IIPP. Notwithstanding, the following documentation will be maintained for a minimum of three years:
• Safety trainings for each employee, including the employee's name, training dates, type of training and training providers.
• Inspections, including the person(s) conducting the inspection, the unsafe conditions and work practices, identified corrective action, and follow up. • Incident investigations that identify the primary and contributory causes and corrective action taken.
• IIPP reviews.

B
.
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin to Adopt a Salary Range for Senior Management Analyst City Clerk; Reallocate One Management Analyst and One Accounting Supervisor to Senior Management Analysts; and Adopt Revised Management Employees Salary Schedule.
Background:
Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations, section 570.5 requires the City's salary schedules to be adopted at a public meeting.
Communications Specialist
In the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023/24 Operating Budget, four non-benefited temporary positions were converted to benefited part-time positions. One of those positions is a Website Technician within the City Manager’s Office. The City does not have a classification specification for Website Technician; therefore, Human Resources (HR) staff conducted a review of the classification’s essential duties and responsibilities to develop a classification specification. Following that review and development of the classification specification, staff recommends retitling the position to Communications Specialist since the essential duties and responsibilities are not only related to maintenance of the City’s website.
In accordance with the City of Rocklin Employee/Employer Resolution, staff further recommends that the classification of Communications Specialist be placed in the Confidential employees’ unit since it will be assigned solely to the City Manager’s Office and therefore will Item Number 2G.
56 have knowledge of, and regular access to, decisions of City management affecting employer- employee relations.
Staff recommends that the classification of Communications Specialist be placed at salary range 8 ($44,035 - $60,703) of the Confidential Employees salary schedule and the incumbent’s salary will be set consistent with the hourly equivalent salary.
Lastly, staff recommends removing the Website Technician title from the Temporary Employees Salary Schedule since it will no longer be in use.
Regarding the aforementioned changes, it is being recommend that City Council:
1 .
Delete 0.50 FTE Website Technician allocation in the City Manager’s Office. 2 .
Add 0.50 FTE Communications Specialist allocation in the City Manager’s Office.
Senior Management Analyst
Human Resources Division
Recent staffing changes in the Human Resources Division of Administrative Services created an opportunity to reevaluate the department organizational structure consistent with the consultant’s recommendation in 2021. To help create an improved functional structure in the Department, staff recommends the following organizational change.
The current organizational structure of the HR Division includes one (1) Director of Administrative Services who has four (4) direct reports in addition to other direct reports from the Finance Division, Payroll Division, and Information Technology Division. The Director of Administrative Services is responsible for supervising all functions of the HR Division. Staff recommends creating a supervisory-level position to supervise the day-to-day activities of the HR Division. The City does not currently have a supervisory-level human resources position; therefore, the Senior Management Analyst classification was developed. HR recommends that the salary for the classification be set to salary range 18 ($98,514 - $135,802) of the Management Salary Schedule.
In accordance with the definition of Management Employee in the City of Rocklin Employee/Employer Resolution, staff recommends that the classification of Senior Management Analyst be assigned to the Management Employee’s unit.
To offset the cost of this recommendation, HR further recommends deleting 1.0 FTE vacant Management Analyst allocation in the HR division.
Finance Division
The Accounting Supervisor in the Finance Division has been vacant since January 2023; recruitment efforts have been unsuccessful and the caliber of applicants has been low. Given these challenges, staff has reevaluated the department organizations structure and recommends the Accounting Supervisor be reallocated to a Senior Management Analyst. As indicated above, the Senior Management Analyst will serve as a supervisor-level classification and be able to provide oversight of the day-to-day activities of the Accounting unit and will also expand the level of essential duties assigned and provide a higher level of support to the Deputy Director of Administrative Services/City Treasurer.
To offset the cost of this recommendation, HR recommends deleting 1.0 FTE vacant Accounting Supervisor allocation in the Finance Division. 57 Regarding the aforementioned changes, it is being recommend that City Council:
1 .
Delete 1.0 FTE Management Analyst allocation in Human Resources Division of the Administrative Services Department.
2 .
Add 1.0 FTE Senior Management Analyst allocation in the Human Resources Division of the Administrative Services Department.
3 .
Delete 1.0 FTE Accounting Supervisor allocation in the Finance Division of the Administrative Services Department.
4 .
Add 1.0 FTE Senior Management Analyst allocation in the Finance Division of the Administrative Services Department.
City Clerk
The recent resignation of the City Clerk created an opportunity to change the reporting structure of the City Clerk. Currently, the City Clerk serves at the pleasure of the City Council, under the general day-to-day direction of the City Manager. To create operational efficiencies, and consistent with other management-level positions, staff recommends changing the reporting structure to have the City Clerk report to the City Manager.
Additionally, staff recommends making this position an at-will position as defined in the City of Rocklin Personnel Rules, and recommends that the salary for the classification be set to salary range 18 ($98,514 - $135,802) of the Management Salary Schedule.
Fiscal Impact:
The fiscal impact to the General Fund from the recommendations is cost neutral. The changes in the Communication Specialist and City Clerk positions are expected to be cost neutral. With the establishment of Senior Management Analyst positions, there is expected to be an increase in cost of approximately $23,000. This cost will be offset by the deletion of the Accounting Supervisor and Management Analyst positions and expected savings through departmental vacancies.

Background:
Maverik Gas Station, Assessor's Parcel Number 017-283-047-000, is a retail commercial property located on the westerly side of the intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Lonetree Boulevard.

The landowner has submitted a petition and waiver letter for CFD No. 1, which requests the annexations to occur and waives some of the procedural requirements for processing the annexations. With the petitions and waivers, the City Council may adopt the resolution of intention at this meeting, and proceed with the public hearing and election, and order the annexation at its regular meeting on September 12, 2023.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no direct fiscal impact to the General Fund from the staff recommendation.
Annexation into CFD No. 1 would allow the City to levy and collect special taxes to pay for the services provided by CFD No. 1.

Proposal/Application Request:
This application is a request for approval of the following entitlement s to allow the development of approximately 8.6 acres into an eighty-eight lot residential subdivision:
• A General Development Plan Amendment to revise the development standards for the proposed zone district
• A Rezone to change the zoning applicable to the project site from Planned Development Commercial (PD-C) to Planned Development Residential, 12 dwelling unit s per acre (PD- 12)
• Tentative Subdivision Ma p to create eighty -eight single-family lots and sixteen lettered access and landscaping lots
• A Design Review to approve the landscaping and architecture of the single -family homes.
Owner/Applicant:
The applicant is Robert Parish with R.M. Parish & Associates and the property owner is Peter Saetes with Oakwood Trails 7V, LLC.
Location:
The subject site is located southwest of the southerly terminus of Ocelot Way (formerly Cheetah Street). APN: 017-171-039. See Figure 1.
Site Characteristics and Background:
The project site is vacant and supports native and non -native grasses. A large soil stockpile is partially located on the western portion of the site , which otherwise slopes generally from northeast to southwest. The parcel has an approximately 150 foot frontage on Ocelot Way (formerly Cheetah Street ). An easement across the adjoining commercial properties to the north will allow the parcel a second point of access directly to Whitney Ranch Parkway.
The parcel comprising the project site was approved in 2004 with the Northwest Rocklin General Development Plan and accompanying large lot subdivision map . The project site is within the Whitney Ranch Planning Area (portion of Whitney Ranch Unit 3) . At that time, the project site, along with adjacent parcels, was intended for commercial development. With the 94 approval of the City’s 2012 General Plan Update, the underlying General Plan land use designation for the project site and adjacent properties to the east and west was changed to Mixed Use, however the commercial zoning was not changed. Subsequently, many of the adjacent properties , or portions thereof, have been approved for development or developed with residential uses; the Spring Valley subdivision to the south and west in 2014, the Wildcat (a.k.a. Durango) subdivision to the east in 2015, and the Placer Creek Apartments to the west in 2022. The properties directly north of the project site, fronting on Whitney Ranch Parkway, are vacant and intended to be developed with commercial uses. In 202 1, the Whitney Ranch Chevron and Carwash project was approved to the northeast of the project site across Oc elot Way (formerly Cheetah Street).
In December 2022, the Planning Commission approved the Wildcat West Tentative Parcel Map which subdivided Whitney Ranch Unit 3 into three parcels ; two parcels approximately 1.4 and
1.6 acres in size that front on Whitney Ranch Parkway and an approximately 8.6 acre parcel to the south that is the project site. The Tentative Parcel Map has not yet been recorded.

97 Summary of Planning Commission Hearing and Action:
On May 16 , 202 3, the Planning Commission considered the proposed Wildcat West project.
Following Staff’s presentation and a brief presentation from the property owner’s representative, Robert Parish, the Planning Commission asked questions regarding the potential absence of natural gas from the project (as requested by the applicant), whether the site had been identified as a Regional Housing Needs Allocation inventory site, and potential future noise impacts from the commercial sites to the north once they develop.
The Commission then opened the hearing for public comment. There being no public comment, the hearing was closed.
During deliberations, the Commissioners articulated some co ncern regarding future home buyers not having a choice between natural gas and electric (or other fuel types), but acknowledged the transition is happening in the market and likely legislatively at the State level in the next few years. The Commissioners generally expressed support for the project.
The Commission then voted unanimously 4 to 0 (one Commissioner absent) to recommend approval of the project to the City Council including the revisions to the subdivision map and design review resolutions to amend the conditions to remove requirements for provision of natural gas in the subdivision.
Project Updates Subsequent to the Planning Commission Hearing:
At the applicant’s request, Staff added a c ondition of approval in the tentative subdivision map resolution to provide for a property owners’ agreement, or the legal equivalent, that ensures the ongoing maintenance of the shared private drive (Street C) that traverses Parcels 1 and 2 of the associated Tentative Parcel Map (DL2021 -0003) between Whitney Ranch Parkway and the subdivision.
General Plan Consistency:
The project site is designated in the City’s General Plan as Mixed Use (MU). The purpose of this designation is to provide “for land use patterns and mixed use development that integrate residential and non -residential land use” among others. Mixed Use designated parcels may be developed as all commercial, all office, all residential, or as any combination of those uses. As mixed-use areas develop, the City shall strive to ensure that there is ultimately a mix of residential and non -residential uses. In the project vicinity, there remain several undeveloped parcels currently zoned as Planned Development – Commercial that are able to provide for that mix of uses. Residential density in a MU area is specified at a range of 10 to 40 dwelling units per acre (du/acre). The project site does not have direct frontage on major arterial roads and it is distan t from Highway 65 (features that would typi cally be more conducive to retail commercial development) . In addition, commercially designated land to the north is being retained and the project’s proposed density of twelve dwelling units per acre is compatible with surrounding existing residential dev elopment. For these reasons, the Planning Commission and 98 Staff concluded that this residential project could be considered to be appropriate within this Mixed Use designated location and is, therefore, consistent with the General Plan.
General Development Plan Amendment and Rezone:
Under State law, the site’s General Plan land use designation of MU would allow single-family development without the need for a rezone . However, to provide for clarity and consistency between land use and zoning , a rezone has been included as on e of the project entitlements.
The Rezone would change the existing zoning of the project site from Planned Development Commercial (PD-C) to Planned Development 12 units per acre (PD -12) on the Citywide Zoning Map. PD-12 is an existing zone district within the Northwest Rocklin General Development Plan and with the approval of the Rezone by City Council, the project would be consistent with the zoning of the site. The project as proposed complies with the density and proposed development standards in the PD-12 zone.
A General Development Plan Amendment is proposed to revise some of the development standards of the existing PD -12 zone to allow for the eight -pack lot configuration of the proposed subdivision. Specifically , in Section 3.5 ‘Development Standards’ the minimum lot area applicable to the PD -10 & 12 Zone districts is proposed to be reduced from 2,000 square feet to 1,850 square feet and the Front, Front entry Garage, and Side Street setbacks are proposed to be reduced as indicated below, see Table 2.

99 Additionally, Footnote F , in the same section, would be revised as follows to allow for the project’s proposed Lot 19 lot to have a reduced street side setback (underlining to show new text):
Street side setback for Lot 19 Development Parcel ( DP) 3B shall be 3.5’ to correspond with the reduced public utility easement. Street side setback for Lot 10 DP 13A, Lot 1 DP 13B, Lot 1 DP 25, Lot 39 DP 31, Lot 40 DP 31, and Lot 79 DP 31 shall be 30 feet - this setback may be reduced at the discretion of the Community Development Director if it is determined that traffic calming features or landscape features will adequately lessen vehicle speeds in these locations and/or diminish the prominence of the portion of the residence facing t he subdivision entry.
No development has occurred yet with in the PD-10 and PD-12 zones, and at this time it is only applicable to two other sites, Estia at Rocklin and Whitney Ranch Unit 1 . The reductions in lot size and setbacks would not affect any approved (Estia) or proposed development (Whitney Ranch Unit 1) and would allow for additional flexibility in PD-10 and PD-12 zoned developments in the future. In the instance of Lot 19, given the lot’s configuration at the street knuckle, only a very small portion of the corner of the house would be set back 3.5 feet, and the majority of the house setback would be significantly greater. Therefore, the Planning Commission and Staff have no objection to the reduced street side setback and, g iven the above , sup port the requested modifications to the development standards.
The General Development Plan Amendment is also required to update the various text sections and tables to reflect the project’s changed zoning, unit count, and acreage, etc . The City is currently processing a Tentative Subdivision Map for Whitney Ranch Unit 1, which does not require a General Development Amendment to change development standards or zoning, but is changing the residential unit count previously identified for Unit 1. Whitney Ranch Unit 1 subdivision was approved by the City Council on May 23, 2023 , therefore updates to incorporate the Whitney Ranch Unit 1 specifics into the General Development Plan have also been included.
Tentative Subdivision Map:
Subdivision Design - General
The Tentative Subdivision Map will subdivide the approximately 8.6-acre site into eighty-eight single family residential lots and sixteen landscape lots (see Figure 3 below). Twenty-four of the residential lots, along the east and south sides of the project, will be traditional single -family lots with individual driveways off of the main streets. The remaining sixty-four lots are arranged in clusters of eight lots that share access via an alley off of the main streets. Of the sixteen lettered lots (A through P), Lots A and B are for street frontage and entry landscaping that will be dedicated to the City. Lots E, F, G, and N are project landscape lots to be owned and maintained by a homeowner’s association. Lots C and D, H thro ugh M, and O are internal streets and alleys to serve the eight -pack homes. Residential lot sizes range from 1,858 square feet up to a maximum lot size of 5,347 square feet. The average lot size is 2,342 square feet.
100
The subdivision streets are proposed to be private and are designed as a modified minor street section, reduced from 42 feet to 36 feet in width w ith vertical curb, gutter, and a sidewalk on one side and a vertical curb on the other side. The streets are very similar to two existing developments off Whitney Oaks Drive at Sterling Drive and at Abby Court. A total of fifty-four (54) visitor and guest parking spaces would be provided , via twenty-two (22) parallel on-street parking spaces, limited to one side of the subdivision streets, and thirty-two ( 32) additional perpendicular parking spaces located at the north and south ends of the loop formed by Streets A and B. Driveway spaces (48) and garage spaces (176) account for another 224 parking spaces.
The homeowner’s association will be responsible for creating and enforcing a parking management plan that requires the use of garages for parking vehicles rather than as storage.
The parking proposed is similar to t he on-street parking coupled with the parking enforcement plan that was approved for the Sierra Pine Subdivision. To date, Staff is not aware of any issues regarding parking or access through that subdivision , which is nearly completed and with homes occupied since 2020.
The subdivision is designed with two points of entry : one from the southern terminus of Ocelot Way (no gates are proposed) and one from a private driveway off of Whitney Ranch Parkway that bisects the two commercial parcels and will also provide access to the future commercial development. The private driveway becomes Street C within the subdivision. Ocelot Way is a public street, a draft condition of approval has been included to require a sign to indicate the transition to a private street.
The project is obligated to construct all on -site streets and improvements , including the connection to Whitney Ranch Parkway, and to install sewer, water, and other infrastructure as required by the City and the applicable utilities to provide service to the project.
Grading, Retaining Walls, Stormwater Quality, Utilities The project’s grading is designed to incorporate fill materials from another Rocklin development site with approved entitlements. Three foot tall maximum retaining walls are proposed to help level the site in a few locations at the project boundaries.
The project is within the Northwest Rocklin Master Drainage Plan area and is conditioned to comply with the City’s Post Construction Manual for Stormwater management. Air quality, sediment, and erosion control measures are required to be implemented and maintained during construction. In addition, applicable requirements from the Northwest Rocklin General Development Plan have also been incorporated in the project conditions of approval.
The applicant has requested that the standard condition to provide natural gas to the subdivision be removed because the prospective homebuilder intends to build an “all -electric” project. Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) is the residential natural gas provider in Rocklin . In response to an inquiry by Staff, PG&E indicated they have no official position on this issue and have chosen to let developers and local jurisdictions determine the best course of action based on local ci rcumstances. The requirement to provide natural gas to all new developments has long been a standard condition of development in Rocklin and most other jurisdictions in the State, as natural gas has been considered a cleaner burning fuel for heating and co oking. Given 101
the applicant’s request, Staff is seeking direction on this issue. After deliberations, the Planning Commission indicated that while they would not be in favor of a blanket ban on the provision of natural gas to new development , they were comf ortable giving the developers the latitude to do so or not , based upon the developer’s market research and knowledge of their customer ’s preferences. Therefore, the Plan ning Commission supported the applicant ’s request to waive the installation of natural gas infrastructure in this development and modified conditions of approval in the draft Design Review resolution and the draft Subdivision resolution accordingly, as part of their recommendation for approval o f the project. If the City Council agrees with the Planning Commission and approves the project as recommended it would establish a precedent for other future development projects throughout the City.
Fencing, Walls and Noise Analysis
Consistent with City requirements, the subdivision proposes eight-foot tall decorative masonry walls with pilasters along the northern project boundary to provide screening and separation from the future commercial uses. Six -foot tall walls are also proposed along the backs o f landscape Lots A and B. A tubular steel fence is proposed where Lots 68 through 76 abut Landscape Lot F . For privacy, g ood neighbor fences are proposed between the private residential side and rear yards.
The City of Rocklin General Plan goal for noise is: “To protect residents from health hazards and annoyance associated with excessive noise levels”. To implement that goal, the City has adopted Noise Compatibility Guidelines prepared by the State Office of Noise Control. The objective of the Noise Compa tibility Guidelines is to assure that consideration is given to the sensitivity to noise of a proposed land use in relation to the noise environment in which it is proposed to be located. For single -family residential uses, exterior noise levels up to 60 d B Ldn are Normally Acceptable, and exterior noise levels from 60 -70dB Ldn are Conditionally Acceptable. The maximum allowable interior noise level is 45 dB Ldn.
A noise analysis was prepared for the proposed Wildcat Subdivision and Whitney Ranch Parkway Commercial project to analyze transportation noise, as well as stationary source noise from the adjacent anticipated commercial uses, and to review compliance with City standards for acceptable noise levels in residential developments. The noise study found that other than the six foot high masonry wall required by the Rocklin Municipal Code between residential and commercial uses, no additional mitigation was needed at this time. The report did note that, depending upon the nature of future commercial devel opment, those projects may need to incorporate mitigation measures.
Public and Common Area Landscaping
Landscape Lots A and B shall be dedicated to the City consistent with the adjacent Wildcat Subdivision. A draft condition of approval has been included to ensure that the configuration of Lot B and the masonry wall on that lot match that of the adjoining Wildcat project. Because of the curve of the wall on that project, as it approaches the project site it will look inconsistent if the matching wall on th e project site does not have a similar curvature . Additionally, this will create a natural “frame” for a public art piece. A draft condition of approval has been included 102
for provision of a public art piece in this location should the future homebuilder e lect to participate in the City’s Public Art Master Plan program and provide public art on Lot B.
A note on the project plans provides for the possibility of a future project entry sign to be located on the Lot B sound wall should the future homebuilder elect to install one. The Planning Commission and Staff have no objection to the inclusion of such a sign, provided that it is non -illuminated and composed of individual metal letters . Therefore, a condition to allow the Community Development Director to approve such a sign has been included in the draft conditions of approval for the subdivision.
There is a significant grade difference between the project and the adjacent Spring Valley development, which averages approximately ten feet below the project’s elevation. Due to this differential and in particular along the western property line , Staff was concerned about line of site issues as people on the project street would possibly be able to look across Lot F and see into the back yards of the exist ing homes. To provide for robust screening along the western boundary of the project adjacent, and to screen the existing single family homes, Lot F is shown and conditioned to provide heavy planting of a screening hedge of English Laurel in addition to other landscaping . English Laurel is a hearty, durable evergreen that will grow to a height of twenty feet or more if not pruned, and should provide for significant screening within a few years’ time. A condition of approval also requires the homeowner’s a ssociation to maintain the screening shrubs at their maximum height and to not “top” prune them down. It should be noted that due to the depth of Lot H on the southern boundary of the project and the planned landscaping, Staff has a reduced concern for privacy protection for the homes to the south. 103

Design Review:
Architecture
The project includes a Design Review for the yard landscaping as well the architectural designs, colors and materials for the single-family homes to be built in the subdivision. The project site is located within the University Architectural District, which is the City’s most modern district with regard to architectural design. Projects are encouraged to incorporate features such as a strong linear emphasis, strong use of color, metallic panels and surfaces, and other modern architectural elements.
The project proposes four house plans, each with three elevation color and mater ial variations (aka schemes), all within the contemporary, University District architectural style. The architecture of the project employs strong linear and geometric elements including projections and voids to provide rhythm and scale . The architecture also uses a variation of materials , including horizontal siding (typically a cementitious fiber/cement product), with stucco and dimensional asphalt shingles, and a muted color palette.
The project was reviewed by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) on March 16, 2023 .
The ARC provided direction to reduce the prominence of the second story frame element over the garage of Plan 1, Elevation B . The applicant responded by revising this portion of the façade, eliminating part of the frame element and reorienting the roofline so it is less heavy and imposing. With this change, the Planning Commission and Staff believe the applicant adequately responded to the ARC’s direction and support the architecture as consistent with the University District requirements.
Individual Lot Landscaping
Front yard landscaping is provided for each traditional lot. Each eight-pack house will have alley landscaping; however, space does not allow for large shade trees. Tree selections have accounted for the size of the respective yard, planter areas, driveway locations, as well as the need to accommodate utilities in the reduced Public Utility Easement ( PUE). Front yard landscaping also includes shrubs and turf consistent with the State’s Water Efficiency Landscape Ordinance.
Environmental Determination:
Consistent with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act, an Initial Study was prepared to determine the Wildcat West Subdivision and Whitney Ranch Parkway Commercial project’s potential impacts on the environment. The study found that the project could have significant impacts with regard to Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Green House Gas Emissions, Noise, Transportation/Traffic, and Tribal Cultural Resource s; however, it was also able to identify mitigation measures that would reduce each of these potential impacts to a less than significant level. Therefore, a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) of environmental impacts was prepared for the project. The mi tigation measures identified as applicable to the residential project have been incorporated into the conditions of approval in the draft Subdivision resolution.

The proposed general development plan amendment and rezone would amend the Northwest Rocklin General Development Plan and the City-wide Zoning Map to update portions of the text to reflect the modified zoning and acreage numbers and to rezone an approximately 8.6-acre portion of a site within the Whitney Ranch Planning Area (Unit 3B) from Planned Development Commercial (PD-C) to Planned Development Residential 12 Units to the Acre (PD-12), as indicated in Exhibits A and B to this resolution, which are attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
B. The general development plan amendment is compatible with the Rocklin General Plan and land uses existing and permitted on the properties in the vicinity.
C. The general development plan amendment does not propose to eliminate any existing or add any new land uses, it will only modify some setback standards and update text and figures to reflect the new project. The general development plan amendment and the rezone would not create serious health problems or create nuisances on properties in the vicinity.
D. The City Council has considered the effect of the proposed general development plan amendment and rezone on the housing needs of the region and has balanced those needs against the public service needs of its residents and available fiscal and environmental resources.
E. The proposed amendments to the Northwest Rocklin General Development Plan only affect Exhibit C of that document, with Exhibit B, Conditions of Approval for the Northwest Rocklin General Development Plan, and the North West Rocklin Financing Plan remaining in effect and unchanged by this amendment.

CHAPTER ONE - INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose of General Development Plan
A General Development Plan (GDP) is a planning document that defines, in detail, the development criteria for a project area. Chapter 17.60 of the Rocklin Municipal Code establishes the Planned Development process as a “means to provide for greater flexibility in environmental design than is provided under the strict application of the zoning and subdivision ordinances.” With that intent, the North West Rocklin Area General Development Plan (“NWRA GDP”) has been crafted to allow the integrated development of the 1,871 -acre project in a manner that will a) promote the development of developable areas and avoid sensitive environmental areas, b) encourage creative and innovative design by allowing flexibili ty in property development standards, c) encourage the preservation of open space, and d) accommodate various types of large scale, complex and phased development in the planning area. More specifically, the NWRA GDP:
1. Establishes the interrelationship among land uses in the plan area.
2. Specifies permitted and conditionally permitted uses for all parcels and the intensity of the uses.
3. Establishes development standards such as the lot sizes, building setbacks, and height limits.
4. Identifies the width a nd general location of roadways necessary to serve the development
5. Identifies the needs and supply sources of water, sewer, drainage, and other public service needs of the project.
6. Provides guidance for the preparation of tentative maps, with regards to design features such as street alignments and cross-sections, lot size and lot orientation
The GDP will serve as the regulatory land use document for the North West Rocklin area. All provisions of the Zoning Ordinance (Title 17 of the Rocklin Municipal Code) shall apply to this project unless otherwise specified in this GDP.

1.2 Plan Area Location and Description
The North West Rocklin Plan Area is approximately 1,871 acres located in the northwest corner of the City of Rocklin. Rocklin is located in the County of Placer, about 20 miles northeast of the City of Sacramento.
The North West Rocklin Plan Area is contiguous to SR 65 on the west and the Twelve Bridges Specific Plan area in the City of Lincoln on the north. Within the City of Rocklin, the Whitney Oaks project is to the east with Sunset West and Stanford Ranch on the south. West of the plan area is the Sunset Industrial Area in the County of Placer.
The North West Rocklin Plan Area’s location within the regional setting is presented in Figure 1 and a vicinity map is presented in Figure 2. Figure 3 shows the existing site conditions at the time of the annexation, which influenced future land uses for the plan area.

CHAPTER TWO – ZONING DISTRICTS AND RELATIONSHIP TO THE ROCKLIN MUNICIPAL CODE
2.1 Relationship to the Rocklin Municipal Code
All provisions of the Rocklin Municipal Code (R.M.C.) shall apply to this project unless otherwise specified in this General Development Plan. Whenever there is a conflict between Title 16 and Title 17 of the R.M.C. and this General Development Plan, the provisions of the General Development Plan shall prevail.
{General Note: ‘Table 2 –Parcel Ownership by Planning Area’ was deemed unnecessary and was deleted from the amendment of the Northwest Rocklin General Development Plan approved via Ordinance 941 – Whitney Ranch Phase II in 2018.}
2.2 Zoning Districts
To encourage a more creative and flexible approach to the use of land in this planning area, the General Development Plan identifies the zoning for Northwest Rocklin as a Planned Development (PD).
The Northwest Rocklin General Development Plan will utilize the following zoning categories.
PD-1.6 Residential – One-and-six tenths (1.6) dwelling units to the gross acre.

PD-BP Business Professional
Purpose: To provide opportunities for developing and operating professional and administrative offices.
PD-COMM Commercial
Purpose: To provide a large concentration and mix of retail and services to meet the needs of local residents and employees of the plan area.
Office uses will be limited to no more than 30% of the total building square footage.
PD-NC Neighborhood Commercial

These parcels will be reserved for purchase by the Rocklin Unified School District (RUSD). (1)
Recreation Facility Private Recreation Facilities
Purpose: To provide areas for private recreational facilities typically owned and operated by a community association or Home Owners’ Association for exclusive use by property owners, tenants, and their guests.
Park Park Facilities
Purpose: To provide areas for passive and active recreational opportunities.
These parcels will be dedicated to the City for park improvements and annexed into the City of Rocklin Parks CFD. The Community park site will provide for more intense active recreation such as athletic complexes, swimming pools and lighted ball fields. The park will attract users from throughout the City. Neighborhood parks will serve the immediate neighborhood and will have less intensive recreation uses like play equipment and turf area.
OS Open Space
Purpose: To preserve hillsides, streams, and other natural resources and buffer them from adjacent land uses. Storm water conveyance and detention will also utilize open space area. The open space corridors will preserve natural drainage ways, link public facilities via adjacent pedestrian trail, and create a unifying element to the plan.
Note (1): All proposed elementary school parcels have been designated with an underlying designation of PD-5. This would give notice that residential development could occur in the event the Rocklin Unified School District chooses not to use any of the sites for future school facilities.
The land use types, acreage and dwelling units for each project area are presented in Table 1. Figure 5 identifies the
Development Areas referred to in this General Development Plan.
124
Northwest Rocklin GDP
to Ord No. XXXX
Subsequent amendments to zoning in the North West Rocklin Area are reflected on the City’s Official Zoning Map. That document shall be referred to in all instances as the official zoning exhibit for this General Development Plan.
The number of dwelling units and/or square footage reflected above is the maximum allowed based on zoning and for which infrastructure is designed or planned for. Actual development yield may be less. The only exception is for those zones where the number of dwelling units is followed by a “+” notation. In those instances, the number of dwelling units allowed per acre is a minimum.
Square footage for the Highway 65 Corridor is tied to number of trips and will depend on mix of uses. See Chapter 3.
2.3 Zoning Boundaries
The boundaries of the zones described in this plan shall be as shown on the Citywide Zoning Map.

CHAPTER THREE – PERMITTED LAND USES AND DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
3.1 Introduction
This chapter presents information regarding permitted uses and development standards associated with the zoning districts in the Northwest Rocklin Plan Area. The requirements presented in this chapter are prescriptive, which means all projects must comply with them without any discretion. In addition to these requirements, a set of Design Guidelines have been prepared which would provide guidance to property owners, architects, and developers in designing projects that are harmonious with the existing fabric of the project area and the City of Rocklin in general.
3.2 Overview of Project Area
The Sunset Ranchos planning are a consists of predominantly residential development with associated parks and school sites, open space, and a commercial area to support the community’s population. The site originally encompassed approximately 1,296.3 +/- vacant acres and, with the most r ecent amendment in 2023, is approved for 3,249 single-family lots, 895 multi-family units, one 50 -acre high school site, and two elementary school sites totaling
22.4 acres, 62.5 acres of park/recreational sites, 199.8 acres of open space, and 8.7 acres of commercial sites.
Parcel K planning area consists of 44.1 acres of residential development up to a maximum of 109 units and approximately 2.9 acres of open space.
The Highway 65 Corridor planning area includes the Atherton Tech Center, which consists of existing office, business professional and industrial uses, the William Jessup University facility, existing single family residential, and vacant undeveloped land zoned for similar land uses.
Approximately 57 acres of the Highway 65 Corridor area is zoned for 370 small-lot single-family residential units. Additional acreage within the Highway 65 Corridor has been zoned to accommodate approximately 435 multi- family residential units. A 226 unit senior congregate care/residential project was also approved with a use permit. The Atherton Tech Center was approved for the construction of Light Industrial buildings and is almost built out.
3.3 Land Use Summaries
3.3.1 Sunset Ranchos
The Sunset Ranchos planning area is conceptually divided into 84 development areas for land use planning. Each development area is identified on Figure 5 in Chapter 2. Table 3 lists the development areas within Sunset Ranchos with the corresponding proposed land use, zoning category, estimated acreage, maximum allowable number of dwelling units (# of DUs) and potential square footage.

3.4.3 Special Use Regulations for Non Residential Zones
Permitted and conditionally permitted uses are subject to the following conditions and criteria:
1. SIMILAR USE DETERMINATIONS
The Community Development Director may determine certain uses or activities that are not explicitly stated above to be permitted or conditionally permitted uses provided the use or activity has characteristics that are similar to those of the uses listed above.
2. MODIFICATIONS TO TRAFFIC CAPACITIES (TABLE 8)
Maximum square footage for each development area shall be limited by the traffic capacity shown in Table 8 . Additional square footage may be allowed if it can be demonstrated through a traffic analysis that intersections and roadway segments would operate acceptably.
3. POTENTIAL NUISANCE FACTORS/USE PERMIT
Uses which in the opinion of the Community Development Director, involve the potential to create odor, dust, noise, light, vibration or other nuisance factors, will be considered with a conditional use permit.
4. OFFICE USES/PD-COMM
Office uses in the PD-Comm. district shall be limited to no more than 30% of total building square footage.
5. COMMERCIAL USES/PD-BP/COMM
Commercial uses in the PD -BP/COMM. district shall be limited to no more than 30% of the land area within each applicable Development Area identified on the General Development Plan Zoning Map. This condition specifically applies to Development Area 104, and 108A.
6. RESTAURANTS & DRIVE-THRUS/PD-BP
Restaurant buildings or drive-through speaker boxes in the PD-BP district shall be located no closer than 300 feet to a residential property line.
7. MINISTORAGES / DEVELOPMENT AREA 113
Conditional use permit applications for mini -storage facilities will only be considered within Development Area number 113.

3.4.4 Traffic Capacity
The traffic impact study for the NWRA project as updated by the Final Transportation Impact Analysis for the Northwest Rocklin Area General Development Plan (May 5, 2016 – Fehr & Peers) and updated through a project related Traffic Impact Study and Addendum (Estia at Rocklin) in August 2022, assume s total average daily trips of 98,010 trips for the Highway 65 corridor planning area - consisting of development areas 104 through 116, including the undeveloped parcels in Atherton Tech. (See Highway 65 Corridor Development Areas Map at the end of this Section). If all traffic and road imp rovements that are outlined the General Development Plan are constructed and modifications to specific intersections identified in the 2016 study are incorporated into and implemented through the City’s Capital Improvement Program and development intensity stays within levels assumed by the traffic study, roadway intersections and segments within the project area will operate within acceptable levels of service established by the General Plan. To ensure that development intensity stays within levels assume d by the traffic study, future uses shall be required to demonstrate that the volume of traffic generated by each development does not exceed the Average Daily Traffic (ADT) shown for each development area in Table 8.
Volumes shown in Table 8 may be exceeded only if a traffic study demonstrates that all intersections and roadway segments would operate acceptably with the increase. This may occur when other areas within the annexation area develop at intensities lesser than presumed in the GDP and traffic study.
Traffic volumes for the original 34.0 acres of commercial zoning and 9. 2 acres of business professional zoning in the Sunset Ranchos planning area were included in the traffic counts for the Sunset Ranchos planning area. Since the proposed building square footage is consistent with or below levels identified in Table 3, no additional traffic analysis is required.
Consistent with the Traffic Impact Study, the following trip generation rates will be used for the purpose of establishing the base ADT limitation for a project within the Highway 65 Corridor Planning Area:
Business Professional (Office) 17.7 daily trips per 1,000 square feet Commercial (Retail, Highway etc.) 35.0 daily trips per 1,000 square feet Light Industrial 7.6 daily trips per 1,000 square feet Single Family Residential 9.0 daily trips per dwelling unit Multi-Family Residential 6.5 daily trips per dwelling unit
All uses will be subject to applicable use limitations of this GDP as well as the traffic limitations herein. For example, in the PD-BP/COMM zone district, commercial uses cannot exceed 30% of the site.

SAMPLE CALCULATION OF ALLOWED SQUARE FOOTAGE FOR A PARCEL USING TRAFFIC CAPACITY AND ZONING RESTRICTIONS.
Development Area No. 104
Zoning Designation: PD-BP/Comm.
Acreage: 66.3 acres
Step 1:
Total Site acreage: 66.3 acres or 2,888,028 square feet Total Trips allocated 20,127
Step 2
Maximum allowed commercial
(30% of site assumed at 25% FAR): 216,602 square feet
Step 3
Trip generation for maximum allowed commercial (@ 35 trips per 1,000 sq., ft.): 7,581 trips
Step 4
Remainder of trips for parcel: 20,127 minus 7,581 = 12,546 trips
Step 5
Allowable square footage for Business Professional uses:
12,546 trips divided by 17.7 (trip rate for BP uses) x 1,000 = 708,000 square feet
In the above example:
1. The use regulation (chapter 3.4.3) limits commercial uses in the BP/Comm Zone to 30% of the site. A 25% FAR is assumed for commercial development and 30% FAR assumed for office and light industrial. This limitation translates into a maximum of 216,602 square feet for commercial uses.
2. At 35 trips per 1,000 square feet, the maximum number of trips allocated for commercial uses is 7,581 trips.
3. That leaves a remainder of 12,546 trips for the parcel. That translates into 708,000 square feet of development.
4. Because there is no use limitation on other uses, the developer could elect to develop the entire 66.3 acres for office or other allowed use.
The “Potential Building Square Footage” shown in Table 8 has been computed using the zoning limitations of chapter 3.4.3 and the traffic capacity of chapter 3.4.4. The computation does not assume the maximum allowed commercial intensity in the PD- BP/Comm Zone or the maximum allowed business -professional office in the PD- 138
Northwest Rocklin GDP
to Ord No. XXXX
Comm. Zone. Instead, the potential maximum development intensity is calculated for both commercial and office uses to fit under the traffic capacity caps. It must be emphasized that this calculation is one of several possibilities for each parcel. In the PD-Comm. zone for example, it is possible for the entire site to be developed as commercial. In that case, the total building square footage would be smaller than what is shown in Table 8.

3.5.2 Special Regulations for Single-Family Residential Zones
The following additional regulations shall apply to single-family residential:
1. PARCEL K and SUNSET RANCHOS PLANNING AREAS / ADJACENT TO STANFORD RANCH
Residences constructed on lots within the Sunset Ranchos and Parcel K Planning Areas that are located immediately adjacent to Stanford Ranch, shall also be restricted to the following standards. These standards supersede the standards contained in the chart in Section 3.5.1 where applicable.
Rear Setback (primary structures in Parcel K only)(a) 60 feet Min. Lot Depth 125 feet
a) Patio covers that are open on at least two sides shall be permitted to encroach within the 60 foot setback.
2. VARIED FRONT YARD SETBACKS
a) Varied front yard setbacks are required along all residential streets. However, the minimum setback must be met in all cases. This requirement shall not apply to non - traditional single family residential subdivision designs such as alley loaded , 3-packs or green court.
b) Usable porches that are open on at least 2 sides and do not occupy more than 50% of the front width of the house may project five (5) feet into the required front setback. To be considered “usable” and therefore, eligible for this provision, a porch must be a minimum of 5 feet deep and 10 feet long.
3. GARAGE SETBACKS
a) Garage structures for single-family residences shall be setback a minimum 20 feet from the street even if the building setback is less than 20 feet. This excludes alleys and courtyards.
b) The garage portion of a house may project five (5) feet into the required front setback, provided the garage door does not front the street. The garage elevation that fronts the street and projects into the front yard must have architectural details other than a blank wall plane. Architectural details could include but are not limited to a combination of pop-outs, window features, planters, etc.
4. LOT COVERAGE CALCULATION
Lot coverage calculations will not include porches open on at least 2 sides and located on the front or street side of the house.

3.5.6 Off Street Parking
The off street parking shall be provided in accordance with the pr ovisions of Chapter 17.66 of the Rocklin Municipal Code.
3.6 Parks and Open Space – Sunset Ranchos / Whitney Ranch & Highway 65 Corridor
The plan designates 57.3 acres of public park, 5.2 acres of private recreation sites within the Sunset Ranchos / Whitney Ranch development area ; no public or private recreational facilities were anticipated in the Highway 65 Corridor as it was designated for commercial and office development. The Northwest Rocklin Annexation area as a whole provides for 199.8 acres of open space areas.
3.6.1 Parks
The City of Rocklin General Plan and Subdivision Ordinance require dedication of park acreage in the amount of five (5) acres of parkland per thousand (1,000) population of residents of any new development. Subdivisions of 50 parcels or more are required either to dedicate land for park purposes, to pay a dedication fee in lieu of land, or a combination of both to satisfy the development’s proportion of the adopted park acreage. The Sunset Ranchos /Whitney Ranch planning area of the General Development Plan was zoned through 2022, i.e., via approval of the single family residential tentative subdivision map for Whitney Ranch Unit 49 (SD2021 - 0003), to accommodate up to 4,347 dwelling units. At 2.6 persons per dwelling unit, the area is projected to generate up to 11,302 persons since the General Development Plan was originally adopted and with subsequent updates over the years . Approximately 56.51 acres of parkland was required to serve that project number of residents. The 2022 plan designated 57.3 acres of public park. The public parkland includes one community park site of 40.3 acres and four neighborhood park sites totaling 17.0 acres. With the zoning changes associated with the 2023 Whitney Ranch Unit 1 Modification (SD2022 -0002) and with Whitney Ranch Unit 3 subdivision (aka Wildcat West, SD2021-0001), an additional eighty single family units were added resulting in a total of 4,427 dwelling units. The area is now projected to generate up to 11,510 persons.
The total park acreage needed to serve this number of residents is 57.55 acres, leaving a deficit of 0.25 acre. Due to the minimal amount of acreage needed, the City has elected to require that all units within the Wildcat West (Unit 3) subdivision pay Park Development (without dedication) Fees in lieu of actual development of a park within the project. If additional areas of the Sunset Ranchos/Whitney Ranch planning area are developed or redesignated with higher resi dential densities than allowed currently and/or if portions of the Northwest Rocklin Annexation area outside of the Sunset Ranchos /Whitney Ranch planning area are converted to residential land uses, additional park lands may be necessary. The Sunset Ranchos/Whitney Ranch planning area 148
Northwest Rocklin GDP
to Ord No. XXXX
also includes a 5.2 acre private recreation facility, which is not included in required public park acreage.
The community park location provides a large contiguous site with relatively flat terrain suitable for intense recreational activity such as softball, soccer, and the construction of swimming pools and recreational buildings. Other recreational activities and facilities may include walking, viewing, outdoor theatres, tot lots/playground, picnic areas and hard cou rts for basketball and tennis. Restrooms and off- street parking will be provided. Lighting for security and night activities on the recreational fields will be installed at the discretion of the City. It is anticipated that competitive level lighting will be installed in the ball field areas.
Neighborhood parks are intended to be the focal points of neighborhoods, sometimes in combination with elementary schools. Two of the five neighborhood parks are adjacent to elementary school sites. The other three are “free -standing.” The neighborhood parks are planned to serve population within ¼ to ½ mile radius, and generally will not provide for off - street parking. Recreational activities at these public parks may include the following: passive and active recreational interests, turf area for multi -use recreational activities, pre -school and school-aged/playgrounds, picnic areas, hard courts for basketball, and restrooms.
Park design will be at the discretion of the Parks and Recreation Commission and the Ci ty Council. The park sites have General Plan designations of PQP and are zoned as Planned Development - Parks. See Figure 6 for locations of parks.
3.6.2 Open Space
The plan preserves open space areas, which provide numerous passive and active recreati onal opportunities for future residents. The following areas have been identified for preservation and designated as open space:
♦ Areas with steep slopes in excess of 25%.
♦ All lands within the post development 100-year floodplain. ♦ Lands within 50 feet from the edge of the bank of all perennial and intermittent streams and creeks providing natural drainage, and to areas consisting of riparian habitat.
♦ Wetland resources associated with the area’s natural drainage ways.
Open space corridors are designed to:
a) Provide a buffer between land uses.
b) Preserve special areas of riparian or other botanical habitat including those subject to the conditions of any Federal or State wetland preservation permit requirements. c) Provide a corridor for off-street pedestrian and bikeway circulation. d) Provide a visually unifying natural element.
149
Northwest Rocklin GDP
to Ord No. XXXX
e) Encourage view corridors to points of orientation throughout the plan area; both for local, short range views to landmarks in the area, and long range views to the Sierra Nevada and Coast Range foothills.
f) Provide land for on-site management of stormwater drainage.
Development will be restricted in open space areas. Open space areas may be configured as common-interest parcels under control of individual or master Homeowners Associat ion(s) (HOAs) or dedicated to the City of Rocklin with some other mechanism for financing improvements and maintenance. Unless otherwise noted for improvements such as road crossings, utilities and pedestrian and bike trail, these areas will remain undeve loped. Open space areas are shown on Figure 6 - parks, open space and trail system map.
A Fuel Modification Plan (FMP) will be prepared concurrently with any subsequent entitlement for development of land which includes or is adjacent to an open space area to address the interface between open space areas and urban uses. The goal of the FMP is to reduce the potential for fire and contain the spread of fire. It shall include, but not be limited to:
a) Access points as necessary into open space areas.
b) Appropriate clearances around homes.
c) Disposal of removed brush and trees within any firebreak area. 150

3.7 Schools
The plan provides a 50-acre high school site and two elementary school sites totaling 22.4 acres.
The two elementary school sites are located next to neighborhood park sites to provide joint - use opportunities. Consistent with City policy, public schools are allowed in all zoning designations in the City.
3.8 Circulation
The vehicular circulation system is designed to provide continuous access throughout the plan area, as well as connections to the existing community. The plan area’s roadway system also provides important regional roadway connections to SR 65, the City of Lincoln to the north, and through adjacent projects to Sierra College Boulevard.
Non-vehicular circulation within the plan area consists of a system of sidewalks, bike lanes and pedestrian trails. These sidewalks, bike lanes and trails provide non -vehicular access between neighborhoods, to schools/parks and open space, to neighborhood commercial facilities as well as to employment centers.
3.8.1 Interchanges
Interchanges are planned at Sunset Boulevard/SR 65 and Whitney Ranch Parkway /SR 65 intersections along the western boundary of the plan area. Funding for the future interchanges has been addressed in the financing plan for the GDP.
3.8.2 Vehicular Circulation System
The street system is organized in a hierarchy with three arterial streets carrying traffic to and throughout the plan area. Whitney Ranch Parkway is an east-west connection between Highway 65 and the Whitney Oaks development. Wildcat Boulevard will connect the existing community with Twelve Bridges in Lincoln. West Oak Boulevard will be extended through the plan area to connect to Whitney Ranch Parkway. University Avenue, is a 4-lane north-south, divided arterial parallel to Highway 65 that will provide access to the Highway 65 Corridor properties. The location of University Avenue from Whitney Ranch Parkway to Sunset Bo ulevard through the William Jessup University site is conceptual. Ultimate alignment will be determined at subsequent project approvals and will be based on criteria such as acceptable street radius, connectivity to established signalized intersections an d other environmental constraints.
Collector streets will provide access into individual neighborhoods. Conceptual locations of collector streets along the arterial roads are shown on the Figure 7. Final alignments will be shown on subsequent Tentative Maps.
Wyckford Boulevard and Kali Place will provide access to Parcel K. These streets are currently stubbed to the Parcel K boundary. Under limitations defined in the North Rocklin Circulation Element, no more than 200 additional residential dwelling un its shall be allowed to access 152
Northwest Rocklin GDP
to Ord No. XXXX
Wyckford Boulevard. Parcel K proposes development of up to 109 dwelling units consistent with the threshold established for Wyckford Boulevard.
Each elementary school site will be provided with a minimum of two street frontages to facilitate traffic circulation. A road may also be established on the east side of the high school to also facilitate circulation. Location and alignment of local streets will be shown on subsequent Tentative Maps.
A summary of major road improvements is provided in Table 11. Figure 7 shows the plan area’s arterial roadways, number of lanes and location of traffic signals. Right -of-way improvements for the roadways are shown in road cross-section on Figure 8.

3.8.3 Bikeway and Pedestrian Trail System
The City’s General Plan includes an on -street and off-street bicycle plan that interconnects the entire community on a bikeway trail system. Most of the major streets within the City have on- street bicycle lanes and pedestrian sidewalks.
The GDP bike and ped estrian trail system expands the city’s bike/pedestrian access concept beyond the public street rights -of-way and into planned open space corridors connecting neighborhoods, schools, parks, open space, commercial, and recreational (passive and active) uses.
This comprehensive community bike and pedestrian trail system is incorporated into the project design. The trail system will enhance the neighborhood village design with an extensive network of interconnected pedestrian and bikeway trails on- street a nd off -street within the planned open space corridors. These amenities are designed to encourage human activities and interactions within the pedestrian/bikeway and open space corridors, resulting in a greater sense of community. The network of trails and bike lanes will be fully accessible to the general public.
The trail system design includes a transitional component and two internal components. The transitional component links the City of Rocklin standard from existing major arterial streets into the project site. These segments will extend the Wildcat Boulevard, West Oaks Boulevard, and Park Drive standard on -street bike lanes and sidewalk improvements to points of transition in the North West Rocklin area where the internal trail system begins. St reet landscaping for the transitional component has been increased from the standard 15 feet from arterial roads to a total of 27 feet (including a 6’ -wide sidewalk). The landscaping will be designed to provide a 6’ wide landscape buffer from the roadway, a 6’ wide sidewalk, and a 15’ landscape strip between the sidewalk and private property.
The two internal components include the community corridor and open space corridor trails.
The community corridor will be the centerpiece of the trail system. The community corridor places both the sidewalk and the bike paths within a 35 -38 foot landscape corridor located on one side and a single sidewalk within a 19-27 foot landscape corridor on the opposite side of the street. The 35 -38 foot wide corridor con sists of a 10’ -wide paved bicycle and pedestrian trail, and 25-28 foot of landscaping. These corridors provide connections between the GDP village core and the multi -family residential and commercial land use areas. In addition, the trail will connect to the Whitney Oaks trail starting at the intersection of Park Drive and Whitney Oaks Drive. To facilitate the transition between the on-street bike lanes and the community corridor, the corridor begins at signalized intersections. The community corridor tra il system is approximately four (4) miles long.
The open space trail cross -section is a 10’wide combined bike and pedestrian trail with 2 -foot shoulders on each side of the trail. Open space trails will be off-street facilities located generally, within or along open space corridors. The open space trails will connect the 40-acre community park and neighborhood parks with residential areas, forming an off -street trail network. This 156
Northwest Rocklin GDP
to Ord No. XXXX
will provide for the easy movement of pedestrians between neighborhoods a nd encourage the use of this non-vehicular form of travel. Open space drainage crossings will also be provided as shown to facilitate access and connections to residential neighborhoods. Approximately 3 miles of trails are provided within or along the open space corridors.
Cross sections of the community corridor and open space trail designs are depicted in Figure 8.
3.8.4 Open Space Crossings
Non-vehicular and emergency vehicle access crossings of open space within the project area are shown in Figure 6. These crossings have been located to provide critical transportation linkage to development areas and access to public facilities such as schools, parks and detention basins.
The approved Army Corps of Engineers’ (ACOE) Nationwide permit allows open space crossings.
Each crossing will be designed with minimal effects on wetland resources within the open space area and in accordance with conditions of the ACOE permit, as well as Streambed Alteration Agreements for each crossing.
3.9 Public Facilities and Services
The North West Rocklin Area General Development Plan will provide the entire infrastructure necessary to serve the needs of residents and users within the plan area. Services will be provided as follows:

City Council
Staff Report
Subject:
Local Responsibility Area Wildland Protection Reimbursement Agreement
Date:
August
8, 2023
Submitted By:
Ryan Brayton, Deputy Fire Chief
Department:
Fire
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin authorizing the City Manager to execute a Cooperative Fire Programs Local Responsibility Area Wildland Protection Reimbursement Agreement with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) within the City of Rocklin for Fiscal Year 2023/2024.
Background:
Since 1997, the City of Rocklin has contracted with CAL FIRE for wildland fire protection of the Clover Valley Lakes area. On an annual basis, the City Council must authorize the City Manager to sign an agreement on the City's behalf with CAL FIRE for the protection of wildlands in the annexation territory. The agreement provides for annual renewals and rate adjustments for as long as CAL FIRE services are necessary or desirable. In 2004, Resolution No. 2004-105 authorized a reimbursement agreement for the developers of Clover Valley Lakes area to reimburse the City for the cost of CAL FIRE wildland fire protection services for the Clover Valley Lakes area. The agreement remains in effect for as long as CAL FIRE provides fire protection of wildlands within the annexation territory.
In 2020, Resolution No. 2020-126 was adopted by the City Council on July 14, 2020 for Fiscal Year 2020/21, which approved the CAL FIRE Agreement Cost Calculations for the Clover Valley Lakes area for 622.5 acres. In 2019, the developer, Massie & Company, LLC, sold approximately 95 acres to Jessup University. This transaction and change of ownership resulted in an amendment to the original agreement, as well as an evaluation of the current acreage. The amended acreage was determined and confirmed with the Placer County GIS and County Assessor's Office as 613.2 acres (including the Jessup University portion). CAL FIRE has included the Agreement Cost Calculations on page 8 of the Attachment 2.
Item Number 2L.
167
The agreement with CAL FIRE provides the City of Rocklin with automatic responses to wildland fires in the area. On "High Fire Dispatch" days, the City will receive two dozers, six engines, two Chief Officers, two Hand Crews, one Helicopter, one Air Attack, and two Air Tankers free of charge. See page 16 of Attachment 2 for details pertaining to the Operating Plan.
Fiscal Impact:
For Fiscal Year 2023/2024, the CAL FIRE total protection cost for 613.2 acres is $25,036. The funds were appropriated into the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Operating Budget in Fire Prevention, and will be reimbursed by the property owner; thus will have no additional fiscal impact.

Release of Property from Development Agreement, Design Guidelines and Flood Agreement (Placer Creek Apartments, LLC) - Parcel M Date:
August
8, 2023
Submitted By:
David Mohlenbrok, Director of Community Development
Lynn Toth, Associate Civil Engineer
Department:
Community Development
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Approving and Authorizing the Release of Property from Development Agreement, Design Guidelines and Flood Agreement (Placer Creek Apartments, LLC) - Parcel M.
Background:
Parcel M (APN 017-084-001-000) is approximately 0.84 acres, located at the southeast corner of the intersection of Whitney Ranch Parkway and University Avenue (see Attachment 1 for a location map). It was previously owned by Sunset Ranchos Investors, LLC and at the time, assumed to be used for road right of way for Whitney Ranch Parkway. This remnant parcel was created when the alignment for Whitney Ranch Parkway was changed and the remainder was no longer needed for right of way. The parcel is not easily developable by itself due to its size and geometry. Therefore, it was contemplated that the parcel would be made part of the adjacent parcel to ensure its orderly and efficient development.
On April 24, 2018, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2018-88, approving and authorizing the City Manager to execute a grant deed accepting Parcel M from Sunset Ranchos Investors, LLC, and a separate grant deed transferring the same parcel to Evergreen Rocklin Land Joint Venture (ERLJV). Most recently, UKI Rocklin, LLC a California Limited liability company (UKI), a related entity to ERLJV, conveyed Parcel M to Placer Creek Apartments, LLC. There were certain title restrictions on the property when owned by Sunset Ranchos Investors, LLC, pertaining to the development of Whitney Ranch that are no longer applicable and should be released in order for Placer Creek Apartments, LLC to develop the property and the adjacent property as a proposed apartment project.
The Development Agreement (DA-2001-01, Ordinance No. 859), subsequent amendments, Design Guidelines, and Flood Agreement are no longer applicable to the remnant parcel, which is now part of an approved project (Placer Creek Apartments). The proposed Resolution (Attachment 2) provides for the release of the development agreement, design guidelines and Item Number 2M.

flood agreement that are no longer necessary.
Fiscal Impact:
The property is part of the current development of the Placer Creek Apartments project (DR2017-0006), and has generated permit fees and property tax revenue.
