Description Analysis
Issue Detail: The Stone Beetland Planned Unit Development (PUD) project is a request by the applicant for the necessary entitlements to allow for future development that covers approximately 140.7 acres in the South Sacramento area and adjacent to the Morrison Creek Regional Transit light rail station. The PUD will create a new neighborhood with a minimum of 1,106 dwelling units, ranging from attached and detached single-unit dwellings to high density multi-unit dwelling housing. There is a commercial/mixed use block that provides space for commercial uses compatible with nearby residential. Amenities such as open space, recreation areas, and pedestrian and bicycle paths have been carefully incorporated into the land use plan to maximize the proximity to the nearby light rail station. The proposed mobility network will connect to existing neighborhoods and the larger City active transportation network. The project also includes 198 units of affordable housing, representing nearly 20% of the overall unit count.
File ID: 2023-01035 10/10/2023 Public Hearing Item 13.
Stone Beetland is considered a Transit Priority Project (TPP) near public transportation (Morrison Creek Regional Transit light rail station). A TPP is a type of project created under SB375 and Public Resources Code section 21155, which sets forth the requirements for a project to qualify as a TPP. A TPP project must meet the following criteria:
1. At least 50% of the total site must be designated for residential use.
2. Be consistent with the use designation, density, building intensity, and applicable policies of the regional sustainable community’s strategy.
3. Be located within ½ mile of a transit corridor included in the regional transportation plan.
4. Achieves a minimum of 20 dwelling units to the net acre.
Consistent with the Transit Priority Project criteria, the project is primarily residential, with density and intensity of the proposed land uses being highest at the eastern edge adjacent to the transit stop and gradually decreases towards the north and west.
The tentative maps lay out the design of the neighborhood, identifying the location of new streets, parks and open space, trails, and developable lots. There are no house plans, multi-family, or commercial development plans proposed at this time.
Public/Neighborhood Outreach and Comments
As part of the application review process, the proposal was routed to surrounding community groups including the adjacent Detroit Community Association, Deerfield/Mesa Grande Neighborhood Association, Pocket Greenhaven Community Association, and Preservation Sacramento, Sacramento AREA Bicycle Advocates, Sacramento Housing Alliance, and CivicThread. City staff received letters from Detroit Community Association and CivicThread (Attachment 20). The site has been posted and all property owners and neighbors within a 500-foot radius of the subject site were notified of the hearing. Below is a summary of the comments received.
Detroit Community Association
The comments from Detroit Community Association includes overall support for the project and the “diverse housing options, including transit-oriented development, in the pipeline.” However, the letter expressed some reservations regarding the potential of new traffic; the letter provides five recommendations:
1. Developer, City and Detroit neighborhood to further explore and analyze impacts of new vehicle and pedestrian connections to the Detroit neighborhood.
2. Developer and City to be transparent and continue actively engaging the Detroit neighborhood on general development, traffic impacts, and changes to the application/plan.
File ID: 2023-01035 10/10/2023 Public Hearing Item 13.
3. Explore traffic mitigation measures, including new traffic calming such as bulb-outs, stop signs, speed lumps, and lighted crosswalks both in Detroit and Stone Beetland.
4. Prohibit construction vehicles in the Detroit neighborhood, unless when absolutely necessary on a limited basis, and in such cases provide street cleaning and repair when necessary, including following all Sac Metro Air District rules and regulations.
5. Explore construction of larger park in North Village due to lack of City-owned park in the Detroit neighborhood.
Staff Response: The applicant team met several times with the Detroit Community Association over the course of the project review. The project applicant prepared a Traffic study which analyzed and forecasted overall traffic circulation generated from the project. Several traffic calming measures were considered and will be implemented, including traffic signals. Specific measures such as bulb- outs and speed-lumps have been considered and will be further evaluated at a later stage of the project when construction documents for the local streets are submitted to the Public Works Department. The applicant will continue to work with the community as specific phases of the project move forward.
The closest planned City park to the Detroit neighborhood is “Lot P-3,” a proposed two-acre neighborhood park site that can be reached most directly from Ann Arbor Way, Albion Way, and Detroit Boulevard. The other park spaces within the new development are within a ¼-½ mile walk (5- 10 minutes) of the existing neighborhood via a Class 1 off-street trail on the north side of proposed A Street.
Staff has placed an advisory condition on the project to strongly encourage the applicant and any subsequent builders to utilize Consumnes River Boulevard or the future extension of 24 th Street for
construction vehicle access.
CivicThread
Overall, CivicThread commends the applicant team on the improved network as the project moved forward through rounds of review. The letter specifically highlighted the additional Class 1 trails and Class II bike lanes along Future 24
th Street and A Street. One recommendation from CivicThread is regarding the decision to utilize attached sidewalks along F Street from Detroit Boulevard. In response, a trail was designed along the east side of F Street, creating a direct path of travel south to the transit stop.
Policy Considerations
Proposed Land Use Designations
Currently, the project site has General Plan Land use designations Traditional Neighborhood Medium Density, Parks and Recreation, Public Quasi-Public, Traditional Neighborhood Low Density, and
File ID: 2023-01035 10/10/2023 Public Hearing Item 13.
Traditional Neighborhood High Density. The existing designations provide for primarily low and medium density housing; higher densities are preferred around the light rail station. The proposed redesignation allows for greater densities near the light rail station, maximizing the project location near public transit while also reaching the density thresholds required as a Transit Priority Project. As proposed, the project would include approximately 66± acres of Traditional Neighborhood Medium Density, 30.8± acres of Park and Recreation, 10.6± acres of Public Quasi Public, 26.1± Urban Neighborhood Medium Density, and 7.2± Traditional Center designations.
General Plan Goals and Policies
The Stone Beetland project will assist the City in achieving the vision of the 2035 General Plan. The project site is a large urban infill opportunity located in the South Sacramento Area and will provide new housing and commercial services adjacent to an existing and underutilized light rail station.
The site will accommodate a mix of residential and non-residential uses adjacent to public transit and will achieve land use efficiency through higher density and intensity of development. The project will have a minimum density of 20 dwelling units per net acre with higher densities concentrated around the light rail station.
The project will be well connected to adjacent and existing neighborhoods through a roadway and bicycle network and will establish PUD Guidelines that provide thoughtful design principles to ensure a cohesive and well-structured development. Typical block sizes will encourage pedestrian activity.
Streets will be enhanced by large shade trees and sidewalks that can accommodate high pedestrian traffic. The project also offers a network of open space sites.

Economic Impacts: The Stone Beetland project develops a 140.7-acre site from vacant land to an urban development that offers a range of housing options and commercial, adjacent to public transportation.
Environmental Consideration: The Environmental Services Manager determined that the Project, as proposed, will not have a significant impact to the environment, and pursuant to Public Resources (PRC) section 21155.2(b), a Sustainable Communities Environmental Assessment (SCEA) was prepared and circulated for public comment. In compliance with PRC 21155.2(b)(2), the City has incorporated mandatory mitigation measures into the project plans to avoid identified impacts or to mitigate such impacts to a point where clearly no significant impacts will occur. These mitigation measures are included in the Mitigation Monitoring Program, and address impacts to air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, geology and soils, greenhouse gas emissions, noise, transportation, tribal cultural resources, and utilities and service systems. The SCEA was available for public review and comment for a 30-day period from June 23, 2023, through July 24, 2023. As of the writing of this report, no comment letters have been received.
The Environmental Services Manager has determined that adoption of the SCEA and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting are appropriate actions under CEQA. The Initial Study/SCEA and Comments for the Stone Beetland Project (P21-042) are available at the Community Development Department’s webpage located at the following link:
http://portal.cityofsacramento.org/Community-Development/Planning/Environmental/Impact-Reports\ 200-Year Flood Protection: State Law (SB 5) and Planning and Development Code chapter 17.810
File ID: 2023-01035 10/10/2023 Public Hearing Item 13.
require that the City must make specific findings prior to approving certain entitlements for projects within a flood hazard zone. The purpose is to ensure that new development will have protection from a 200-year flood event or will achieve that protection by 2025. The project site is within a flood hazard zone and is an area covered by SAFCA’s Improvements to the State Plan of Flood Control System, and specific findings related to the level of protection have been incorporated as part of this project.
Even though the project site is within a flood hazard zone, the local flood management agency, SAFCA, has made adequate progress on the construction of a flood protection system that will ensure protection from a 200-year flood event or will achieve that protection by 2025. This is based on the SAFCA Urban level of flood protection plan, adequate progress baseline report, and adequate progress toward an urban level of flood protection engineer’s report that were accepted by City Council Resolution No. 2016-0226 on June 21, 2016, and the SAFCA 2022 Adequate Progress Annual Report accepted by City Council Resolution No. 2022-0313 on October 11, 2022.
Sustainability: The proposed development will ensure energy consumption is minimized and use of renewable energy sources is encouraged in that staff recommends that the project, to the extent possible, incorporates green building methods in the construction of the proposed project. The proposed development is a transit supportive infill site adjacent to a major transit stop. The project will add to the housing diversity of the region, while promoting a walkable, bike-friendly neighborhood.
Commission/Committee Action: On July 27, 2023, the Planning and Design Commission held a public hearing on the project and passed a motion to forward a recommendation of approval to City Council to adopt the ordinance and resolutions approving the Stone Beetland Planned Unit Development project.
Financial Consideration: An estimate of the costs and proposed funding sources for all backbone infrastructure improvements, public facilities, and administrative costs to serve the site has been identified.
Local Business Enterprise (LBE): No goods or services are being purchased under this report.
Rationale for Recommendation: Staff recommends the City Council approve the Stone Beetland project. The project entitlements set the stage for the development of an underutilized vacant 140.7- acre site and its transformation into an urban community that offers a diverse range of housing options and opportunity for commercial uses in a bicycle-, pedestrian-, and transit- supportive environment. The project meets many of the goals and policies of the 2035 General Plan as it relates to infill development, alternate modes of transportation, transit supportive development, housing diversity, and open space/park features.

Background
Project Description
The Stone Beetland Planned Unit Development (PUD) is a proposal submitted to the City of Sacramento to develop 140.7- vacant acres in South Sacramento. The site is generally located south of the Detroit Boulevard Neighborhood and the City owned “102 acre” site, north of Cosumnes River Boulevard, east of Delta Shores and the future 24th Avenue extension, and west of Sacramento Regional Transit’s Morrison Creek light rail station (See Figure 1).
The proposal would transform 140.7 acres into a Transit Priority Project1 that includes a mix of low, medium, and high-density housing. The land use plan also includes an opportunity to build commercial services on the east side of the development near the three high density residential sites and Consumnes River Boulevard. The total buildout of the PUD area would accommodate a minimum of 1,106 residential units, with approximately two-thirds of the units located within one-half mile of the light rail station.
The proposal includes the construction of 198 affordable dwelling units, representing nearly 20% of the overall unit count in the PUD. Please see additional discussion about the affordable housing below.
Transit Priority Project: Stone Beetland is a Transit Priority Project (TPP), which is a new type of project created by Senate Bill 3752. As a TPP, the project is required to incorporate and comply with the following criteria:
1. At least 50% of the total site must be designated for residential use.
2. Be consistent with the use designation, density, building intensity, and applicable policies of the regional sustainable community’s strategy.
3. Be located within ½ mile of a transit corridor included in the regional transportation plan (No parcel more than 25% further, and less than 10% of units, no more than 100 units further than 0.5 miles).
4. Achieves a minimum of 20 dwelling units to the net acres.
Consistent with the Transit Priority criteria, the density and intensity of the proposed land uses is highest at the eastern edge adjacent to the transit stop and gradually decreases towards the north and west. The residential lots and street connections adjacent to the existing Detroit neighborhood will provide a transition from the current neighborhood into the new development and provide ample walking and vehicular connections.
Village Sub-Areas: The Stone Beetland PUD has four distinct sub-areas (“Villages”):
West Village, Central Village, North Village, and Transit Village (see Figure 2 below).
1 https://www.sacog.org/post/transit-priority-and-sustainable-communities-projects-consistent-scs 2 Senate Bill (SB) 375 directs the California Air Resources Board to set regional targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Each sub-area consists of different densities and land use assumptions that will be further guided by PUD policies and goals. The West, North and Central Villages are primarily low and medium density residential uses with a range of housing types, such as single-unit dwellings, halfplexes, bungalows, and courtyard development. The densities of the sub-areas are lowest in the West and North Villages, increasing in the Central Village, with the highest density located in the Transit Village. The Transit Village is anticipated to include rental and for-sale units at market rate and regulated affordable units. The PUD will also allow for commercial land uses within the Transit Village.
Requested Entitlements
General Plan Land Use Designation Amendment
The applicant is proposing to amend the General Plan Land Use Designations. The General Plan currently designates the subject parcels as Traditional Neighborhood Medium Density (TNMD), Parks and Recreation (Parks), Public Quasi-Public (PQP), Traditional Neighborhood Low Density (TNLD), and Traditional Neighborhood High Density (TNHD).
Figure 2: PUD Villages
The requested General Plan Amendment will reorganize the distribution of land uses to fit the development proposal and introduce General Plan designations that allow for increased density.
A comparison of the changes is provided in Table 1 below.

Traditional Neighborhood High Density 9.0 0 -9.0
Urban Neighborhood Medium Density 0 23.6 +23.6
Traditional Center 0 7.6 +7.6
The proposed General Plan designations are consistent with the request to develop a Transit Priority Project and planning staff supports the amendments. The request is consistent with General Plan goals and policies related to City Neighborhoods (Goal LU
2.1), City Connected and Accessible (Goal LU 2.5), City Sustained and Renewed (Goal LU 2.6), and City Form and Structure (Goal LU 2.7).

The proposed designations allow a variety of uses including single-unit dwellings, high- density residential, mixed-use, and commercial uses. With the proposed amendments, a greater number of residential units can be built compared to the existing designation, further addressing the City’s housing needs, while also efficiently and sustainably developing the land with the highest concentration of dwelling units near transit.
Rezone
The project site is currently zoned Single-Unit Dwelling (R-1), Single-Unit Dwelling or Duplex Dwelling (R-1A), and Agriculture (A). The general purpose of the R-1 and R-1A zones is to accommodate primarily low-density residential uses (attached or detached) and some neighborhood supportive uses such as recreational, religious, and educational facilities. The A zone is primarily dedicated to agriculture and farming.
The applicant is proposing a rezone to higher and more permissible zoning such as the R-1A, Multi-Unit Dwelling (R-2A), Multi-Unit Dwelling (R-4), and Limited Commercial (C- 1). The proposed zoning designations allow for a variety of uses that are envisioned in the proposed general plan designation. Uses allowed in the R-2A, R-4, and C-1 zone include higher density residential development and commercial services that are compatible with residential developments.
Staff supports the rezone because it allows the opportunity for a variety of housing options specifically surrounding the light rail station and commercial compatible with nearby residential. The rezone enables higher densities near the light rail station, addressing specific criteria required for TPP’s. The rezone is also consistent with General Plan goals and policies supporting infill development; providing for a mix of residential types and densities; connecting communities; creating a mix of uses that would promote walking, biking, and transit use; and providing community amenities such as open space.
Stone Beetland Planned Unit Development
The purpose of planned unit developments is to provide guidelines and policies to ensure the development of large areas result in a well-integrated community. These guidelines include design principles, development standards, and land use concepts that will be applied to all future development in the area. The Stone Beetland PUD can be found in Attachment 9.
The Stone Beetland Planned Unit Development (PUD) will largely follow the Citywide Design Guidelines, but specific design guidelines are included that are relevant to the project area. They include the following:
1. All homes/residential units are encouraged to front onto residential streets, onto trails and open space, to the extent feasible.
Figure 4: Rezone Exhibit
2. The lots surrounding Lot P3 (in the northeast corner of the community) or in close proximity, shall be generally oriented to front on to the extension of Ann Arbor Way and the landscape amenity to provide “eyes-on-the-park”.
3. Houses adjacent to paseos should consider locating entrances along the pathways to increase natural surveillance.
4. Encourage builders to design some lots to accommodate accessory dwelling units (ADU’s), where feasible.
5. Home designs for the LDR-1 neighborhood shall include at least one single story floor plan.
6. The PUD Guidelines include provisions for perimeter fencing and wayfinding signage to the light rail station.
Medium Density Development: The applicant is relying primarily on the development and design standards in the Planning and Development Code to guide development within the PUD, with just a few proposed modifications to be included in the PUD to tailor the development within the Central Village area.
The underlying zone for the Central Village is R-2A-PUD. The anticipated housing products are compact lots, “I” Court development, and bungalow style condominium lots. While adding to the variety of housing options in the neighborhood, these housing types do not traditionally conform to the regular development standards of the R-2A zone, including lot coverage, lot size, dimensions, and setback requirements of the underlying zone. In order to provide the flexibility to address these innovative housing types, development standards within the Central Village area will vary.
Staff supports the proposed PUD Guidelines as they will ensure the orderly implementation of the development plan.
Figure 5: PUD Schematic Plan
PUD Schematic Plan: The PUD Schematic Plan works in concert with the PUD Guidelines to provide a land use plan consisting of open space, circulation, and development sites to form an integrated master project site consistent with the goals of a Transit Priority Project.
Table 3 summarizes the distribution of housing types between Low, Medium, and High Density. While the entire development is within close walking distance to the light rail station, Stone Beetland takes advantage of its proximity to the station to focus the balance of the project density on the east side of the project.
The Schematic Plan identifies the location of these intensities of residential development. Staff will evaluate future projects against the PUD Guidelines and PUD Schematic Land Use Plan. Staff has determined the PUD Schematic Plan is consistent with the proposed amended General Plan, zoning designations, and PUD Guidelines for the project site.

Park and Open Space Network: The project includes a park and open space network with a mix of public and semi-public spaces comprised of 33 acres. The parks and open spaces will satisfy the development’s Quimby parkland dedication obligation of approximately 9.5 acres. Three new public parks will be dedicated to the City and master planned with the input of the new residents. The parks are located within a 10- minute walk from the Villages and can be easily accessed from the adjacent existing community. The project includes approximately 1.5 miles of Class 1 bike paths, with connections to the existing and planned land uses to the north, and the planned development in Delta Shores.
Staff and the applicant submitted the proposed project to the Parks and Community Enrichment Commission on June 1st for review and comment. The Commission discussed park accessibility, limiting garages to support transit, infrastructure needs for parks, specifically adding restrooms to parks, and capitalizing on the project’s location proximate to Morrison Creek and creating a “bio-corridor”. Further discussion was related to park and detention basin maintenance.
Figure 7: Mobility Framework
Traffic and Transit
Vehicle Circulation: Stone Beetland will connect to Detroit Neighborhood via Detroit Boulevard, Albion Way and Ann Arbor Way. Stone Beetland will also extend 24th Street.
A description of some of these improvements are provided below:
24th Street is an existing 2-lane road (north of Kenworthy Way) providing north-south access from the Meadowview Neighborhood to Sutterville Rd. This street will be extended approximately 1,000 feet to provide access to Delta Shores from the Stone Beetland Project. The extension is proposed to be a 4-lane road. Future northern 24th Street extension of approximately 2,400 feet connecting Stone Beetland to the Meadowview community will occur upon development of adjacent parcels.
Detroit Boulevard and Ann Arbor Way will be extended via F Street and H Street. These extensions will provide north-south access to the Detroit Neighborhood and the Morrison Creek light rail station. The extensions are proposed to be local collector streets.
Bicycle Master Plan Amendment
Active Transportation Network: On-site pedestrian and bicycle access is proposed to be provided via a number of on and off-street trails that work in conjunction with the planned parks to provide pedestrian and bicycle access through the Stone Beetland PUD and adjacent neighborhoods. The applicant has provided a trails plan as part of Figure 8: Master Tentative Parcel Map
the PUD that depicts features such as off-street multi-use trails, on street bike lanes, and widened sidewalks near the light rail station.
The subdivision of the project area will create a new multi-modal network to support future development. The new road network includes the extension of 24th Street and Detroit Boulevard (‘F’ Street) through the site and connecting with Cosumnes River Boulevard.
Further mobility improvements include a 10’ widened sidewalk (depicted on Figure 7 in Orange) that will bisect the project, running east/west from 24th Street and connecting with Morrison Creek Light Rail Station. This sidewalk will be maintained by the Homeowners Association and will serve primarily walking trips by residents to and from the light rail station.
The 2016 City Bicycle Master Plan (Plan) was developed to serve the recreational and transportation needs of the public. This Plan was adopted by the City of Sacramento in 1995 and has since undergone several updates and revisions. Currently the Bicycle Master Plan terminates at the southern end of Detroit Boulevard. The proposed project amends the plan and provides new connections (see Figure 4, “Bike Lane-Class 2”), to the light rail station, Cosumnes River Boulevard, the surrounding Delta Shores development, and beyond to the larger City trail network. As shown in Figures 7 and 9, the Stone Beetland project is proposing a Class II trail around the Western and Central Village and a Class I along perimeter of the site.
Figure 9: Bike Facilities Plan
The requested amendments to the City’s Bikeway Master Plan include the following:
1. A 16-foot-wide shared-use path (Class 1, shown in Red), which will run along the project’s west boundary along the east side of 24th Street (Street A, F, E and H), with adjacent landscaping to buffer the shared-use from the street.
2. A 16-foot-wide shared-use path (Class 1, shown in Red), which will run along the north side of the project boundary, between the Stone Beetland Development and the vacant property to the north (owned by the City of Sacramento, connecting the development to 24th Street and the Delta Shores development to the west. This Class 1 shared-use path will connect to the existing Detroit/Southgate neighborhood at both Burlington Way and Detroit Boulevard. It connects to the Morrison Creek light rail station and out to Cosumnes River Boulevard.
3. A series of Class 2 bike lanes (shown in Blue) will be located on the primary street within and surrounding the project site. (24th Street, A Street, and C Street).
The proposed amendments were presented to the Active Transportation Commission on June 15, 2023. The Commission expressed their pleasure with the bicycle facilities connectivity to the north, south, and west, along with praise for the central east/west widened 10-foot sidewalk, which would not restrict bicycle usage.
Displeasure was shared with staff and the Applicant regarding the community street widths, as the Commission believed it would encourage higher speeds, presenting safety risks for bicyclists. Staff informed the Commission that the streets meet city standards and will serve not only local Stone Beetland resident traffic but provide circulation to and from adjoining neighborhoods. The Commission also expressed their wish for a direct north/south bicycle lane to the light rail station. The hearing item concluded with the Commission reiterating their overall support for the Amendment and voting unanimously for a recommendation of adoption of the Amendment by City Council.
Tentative Subdivision Map
The Tentative Subdivision Map will subdivide the 140.7 acres into 402 lots for residential development and more than lots for landscaping, paseos, trails, open space, commercial mixed use, and high density residential.
The applicant is requesting deviations to established street standards by proposing to eliminate the northern parking lane and sidewalk on Street A, 42’ right-of-way without landscape parkways on H Street and Albion Way, modified intersection spacing in MDR-1, residential street right-of-way without landscape parkways on LDR-2 and LDR- 3, exceeding maximum cul-de-sac length within LDR-2, and modified intersection angle for D and E Street.
The Department of Public Works has reviewed and accepted the tentative map design deviations given the low traffic volumes, limited access around the curve, and the geometry constraints of the framework roadway intersections. The final design elements, signage, and striping will be designed for the review and approval of the Department of Public Works.
The Subdivision Review Committee reviewed and approved the Master Tentative Parcel Map and the Tentative Subdivision Map and conditions of approval on June 7, 2023.
The Master Tentative Parcel Map and the Tentative Subdivision Map and justification for the deviation to tentative map standards can be found in Attachments 14 and 15.

Affordable Housing
The Stone Beetland project contains a condition of approval to require the construction of affordable housing onsite. The City of Sacramento’s Mixed Income Housing Ordinance (MIHO) (City Code Section 17.712) is intended to require residential projects to contribute to the construction of affordable housing and to implement the policies of the City’s Housing Element. Section 17.712.030 requires residential projects that exceed 100 gross acres in size (like Stone Beetland) to pay housing impact fees on all new construction and also adopt a Mixed Income Housing Strategy. There are several categories under which a project may be exempt from the MIHO requirements, including the following exemption:
Development projects in which at least 10% of the dwelling units are affordable dwelling units. The affordable dwelling units shall have a regulatory agreement recorded on title, requiring the units to remain affordable for a period of no less than 30 years. The agreement shall be monitored by SHRA and the owners shall be subject to a monitoring fee as established by the guidelines authorized by section 17.712.090.
In the case of Stone Beetland, the applicant is proposing to go beyond the minimum 10% onsite affordable housing obligation that would earn an exemption from the ordinance and instead provide approximately 20% of the onsite units as affordable; the project would build 198 regulated affordable units within the Transit Area.
The condition of approval specifies that a Regulatory Agreement be worked out with Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency (SHRA) staff and be recorded against the property’s title prior to the recordation of the first final map. At that time, the location of the affordable units will be determined, along with the type of units (to be compatible with the market-rate units in appearance, materials, and finished quality), and the size of the units (a mix of bedrooms to accommodate households of different sizes).
Staff supports the inclusion of onsite affordable units within the Stone Beetland project directly adjacent to a functioning light rail transit station, near parks and schools, and ample commercial services within the surrounding community.
Water Supply Assessment Report
According to Senate Bill 610, a water supply assessment is required for proposed residential developments with more than 500 units and office developments of more than 250,000 square feet. In addition, SB 221 requires written verification of sufficient water supply before a project is approved. The attached Water Supply Assessment Form verifies the City of Sacramento has sufficient water allocations available to serve the proposed project as well as the projected future growth.
Tree Removal Permit
Pursuant to Sacramento City Code (SCC) 12.56, the removal of private protected trees requires a tree removal permit. This project proposes to remove six private protected trees, including the following: one (1) – 30-inch black willow, one (1) – 55-inch black willow, three (3) – 12-inch interior live oaks, one (1) - 27-inch California walnut, and one (1) - 19-inch valley oak. These trees are identified as tree numbers 1, 592, 594, 595, 597, and 599 (respectively) in the Arborist Report and related exhibits. The trees are proposed for removal because they conflict with the location of necessary infrastructure, including the construction of drainage facilities and a proposed park.
The applicant will plant the equivalent of at least 167 inches Diameter Standard Height in the form of new 35-foot diameter large canopy street trees and landscape trees, to the satisfaction of the City Urban Forester.
RESOLUTION NO. 2023-
Adopted by the Sacramento City Council
October 10, 2023
ADOPTING THE SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
AND THE MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM FOR THE STONE BEETLAND (P21-042)
BACKGROUND
A. On July 27, 2023 the City Planning and Design Commission conducted a public hearing on, and forwarded a recommendation of approval of the Stone Beetland (P21-042) Project to City Council.
B. On October 10, 2023 the City Council conducted a public hearing, for which notice was given pursuant Sacramento City Code, and received and considered evidence concerning the Stone Beetland (P21-042) Project.
BASED ON THE FACTS SET FORTH IN THE BACKGROUND, THE CITY COUNCIL RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council finds as follows:
A. Pursuant to Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 21155, the Project is a Transit Priority Project (TPP) that:
1) contains at least 50 percent residential use because the project includes a total of 9 5 percent of the total proposed building square footage is for residential land uses (1,163 dwelling units) and the remaining 5 percent of building square footage is for commercial use;
(2) provides a minimum net density of at least 20 dwelling units per acre because the project includes net density of 2 1 dwelling units per acre (1,163 total units / 55.3 net acres); and (3) is located within one -half mile of a major tr ansit stop or high quality transit corridor included in a regional transportation plan because the project density and intensity of the land uses is highest at the eastern edge of the project site, adjac ent to the Morrison Creek SacRT light rail station, a nd gradually decreases towards the north and west. A project shall be considered to be within one- half mile of a major transit stop if all parcels within the project have no more than 25 percent of
their area farther than one -half mile from the stop and i f not more than 10 percent of the residential units or 100 units, whichever is less, in the project are farther than one-half mile from the stop.
Consistent with this criterion, 22.7 percent of the parcels within the project is located beyond one - half mil e of the Morrison Creek SacRT light rail station. The project also meets the second prong of the criterion by ensuring no more than 100 dwelling units are located beyond one-half mile from the light rail station. This is acc omplished by capping the number of units within the West Village, which is beyond the
0.5-mile distance from the transit stop.
B: The Project is consistent with the general use designation, density, building intensity, and applicable policies specified for the project area in the Sacram ento Area Council of Government’s (SACOG) Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS), for which the State Air Resources Board, pursuant to subparagraph (H) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 65080 of the Government Code, has accepted SACOG’s determination that the sustainable communities strategy would, if implemented, achieve the greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. SACOG’s MTP/SCS identifies the project site as being located largely within the Blue Line Statio n Area – Meadowview to CRC Center and Corridor Community designation of the MTP/SCS. Within the Center/Corridor Community, the MTP/SCS forecasts a range of low to high density residential, commercial, office, and industrial uses. The proposed project’s land uses fall within this range of general uses, densities, and building intensities.
Development at the proposed densities is consistent with the buildout assumptions for the area within this community type of the MTP/SCS.
C: Pursuant to PRC Section 21155.2 , the Project has incorporated all feasible mitigation measures, performance standards, or criteria set forth in the prior General Plan Master Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP)/SCS EIR.
D: An initial study has be en prepared that identifies all significant or potentially significant impacts of the transit priority project, other than those that do not need to be reviewed pursuant to PRC Section 21159.28 based on substantial evidence in light of the whole record.
The initial study identifies cumulative effects that have been adequately addressed and mitigated in the prior applicable certified EIRs. Cumulative effects have been found to be adequately addressed and mitigated in the prior applicable certified EIRs and
are not considered cumulatively considerable for the purposes of this SCEA.
E: The Sustainable Communities Environmental Assessment (SCEA) includes measures that either avoid or mitigate to a level of insignificance all potentially significant or significa nt effects of the project required to be identified in the initial study.
F: The draft SCEA was completed, noticed and circulated in accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State CEQA Guidelines:
I). On June 23, 2023 a Notice of Availability/Notice of Intent to Adopt the SCEA (NOI) dated June 20, 2023 was
posted with the Sacramento County Clerk -Recorder’s
Office;
II) On June 23, 2023 a Notice of Availability/Notice of Intent to Adopt the SCEA (NOI) dated J une 20, 2023 was
circulated for public comments for 30 days. The NOI was sent to those public agencies that have jurisdiction by law with respect to the proposed project and to other
interested parties and agencies, including property
owners and occupants within 500 feet of the boundaries
of the proposed project. The comments of such persons
and agencies were sought.
III). On June 23, 2023 a Notice of the SCEA was published in the Sacramento Bulletin, a newspaper of general
circulation, and the NOI was posted in the office of the Sacramento County Clerk.
IV). On June 23, 2023 a Notice of Availability/Notice of Intent to Adopt the SCEA (NOI) dated June 20, 2023 along with
the SCEA were uploaded and posted to the California
Office of Planning and Research , State Clearinghouse
(SCH) (CEQAnet.opr.ca.gov) (SCH#: 2023060633).
Section 2. The City Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in the SCEA, including the initial study, the conditions incorporated into the Project, and the comments received during the public review process and the hearing on the Project. The City Council has determined that the SCEA constitutes an adequate, accurate, objective and complete review of the environmental effects of the proposed project.
Section 3. Based on its review of the SCEA and on the basis of the whole record, the City Council finds that the SCEA reflects the City Council’s independent
judgment and analysis and that there is no substantial evidence that the Project will have a significant effect on the environment.
Section 4. The City Council adopts the SCEA for the Project.
Section 5. Pursuant to CEQA section 21081.6 and CEQA Guidelines section 15074, and in support of its approval of the Project, the City Council adopts the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program to require all reasonably feasible mitigation measures, including mitigation measures from the Master EIR as appropriate, be implemented by means of Project conditions, agreements, or other measures, as set forth in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program.
Section 6. Upon approval of the Project, the City Manager shall file or cause to be filed a Notice of Determination with the Sacramento County Clerk and with the State Office of Planning and Research, pursuant to section 21152(a) of the Public Resources Code and Section 15075 of the State EIR Guidelines adopted pursuant thereto.
Section 7. Pursuant to Guidelines s ection 15091(e) , the documents and other materials that constitute the record of proceedings upon which the City Council has based its decision are located in and may be obtained from, the Office of the City Clerk at 915 I Street, Sacramento, California. The City Clerk is the custodian of records for all matters before the City Council.

The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines require Lead Agencies to adopt a program for monitoring the mitigation measures required to avoid the significant environmental impacts of a project. The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) ensures that mitigation measures imposed by the City are completed at the appropriate time in the development process.
The mitigation measures identified in the Sustainable Communities Environmental Assessment Initial Study for the Stone Beetland Project include applicable measures from the prior applicable environmental impact report ( the 2020 Metropolitan Transportation Plan/ Sustainable Communities Strategy [MTP/SCS] Environmental Impact Report [EIR]), as well as project -specific mitigation measures. In addition to listing all identified mitigation measures, the MMRP also provides the party responsible for monitoring implementation of the mitigation measure, the mi lestones fo r implementation and monitoring, and a sign -off that the m itigation measure has been implemented. Applicable mitigation measures from the 2020 MTP/SCS EIR that have been incorporated into the Stone Beetland Susta inable Communities Environmental Assessment Initial Study , consistent with Public Resources Code Section
21155.2, are distinguishable by the preceding letters “MTP/SCS”.

identified in the report should be implemented.
• If no archeological resources are ident ified in the
Archeological Survey Report that may be directly or

documented archeological resources.
• When a project would impact a known archaeologic al site, the project sponsor and/or implementing agency shall
determine whether the site is a historical resource (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(c)(1)). If archaeological
resources identified in the project area are considered potentially significant, the project sponsor and/or
responsible implementing agency shall undertake
additional stu dies overseen by a qualified archaeologist (36 CFR Section 61) to evaluate the resources eligibility for listing in the CRHR, NRHP, or local register and to recommend further mitigative treatment. Evaluations shall be based on, but not limited to, surface remains,
subsurface testing, or archival and ethnographic
resources, on the framework of the historic context and important research questions of the project area, and on the integrity of the resource. If a site to be tested is prehistoric, local t ribal representatives should be afforded the opportunity to monitor the ground- disturbing activities.
Appropriate mitigation may include curation of artifacts removed during subsurface testing.
• If significant archaeological r esources that meet the definition of h istorical or unique archaeological resources are identified in the project area, the preferred mitigation of impacts is preservation in place (CEQA Guidelines
Section 151 26.4(b); PRC Section 21083.2). Preservation in p lace may be accomplished by, b ut is no t limited to, avoidance by project design, incorporation within parks, Stone Beetland Project 16

alternative mitigation method is superior to in- place
preservation, the project sponsor and/or implementing
agency may implement such alternative measures.
• When preservation in pl ace or avoidance of historical or unique archaeological resources are infeasible, data
recovery through excavation shall be required (CEQA
Guidelines Section 15126.4(b)). Data recovery would
consist of approv al of a Data Recovery Plan and
archaeological ex cavation of an adequate sample of site contents so that research questions applicable to the site can be addressed. For prehistoric sites, local tribal
representatives should be afforded the opportunity to
monitor the ground- disturbing activities. If only part of a site would be impact ed by a project, data recovery shall only be necessary for that portion of the site. Data
recovery shall not be required if the implementing agency determines prior testing and s tudies have adequately
recovered the scientifically consequential information from the resources. Confidential studies and reports resulting from the data recovery shall be deposited with the
appropriate CHRIS Information Center. Archaeological
sites known to contain human remains shall be treated in accordance with the provisions o f Section 7050.5 Health and Safety Code or the provisions of NAGPRA on federal
or tribal lands. Mitigation may include curation for artifacts removed during data recovery excavation.
• If archaeological resources are discovered during
construction, all work near the find shall be halted and the project sponsor and/or implementing agency shall follow the steps described under CEQA Guidelines Section

The City shall require the applicant/contractor to provide a tribal cultural resources se nsitivity and awareness training program (Worker Environmental Awareness Program [WEAP]) for all personnel involved in project con
struction, including field
consultants and construction workers. The WEAP will be
developed in coordination with culturally affiliated Native American tribes. The WEAP shall be conducted before any project -related construction activities begin at the project site. The WEAP will include relevant information regarding sensitive tribal cultural resources, including applicable regulations, protocols for avoidance, a nd consequences of violating State laws and regulations.
The WEAP will also describe appropriate avoidance and impact minimization measures for tribal cultural resources that could be located at the project site and will outline what to do and who to contact if any potential tribal cultural resources are encountered.
The WEAP will emphasize the requi rement for confidentiality and culturally appropriate treatment of any discovery of significance to Native Americans and will discuss appropriate behaviors and responsive actions, consistent with Native American tribal values.

SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose and Intent
The Stone Beetland PUD Guidelines contain discussion and guiding language, details, conditions and restrictions to direct the build-out of the Stone Beetland Plan Area (Plan Area). To achieve the overriding goal to develop a new high quality residential community, these PUD Guidelines are formulated in a flexible manner to allow creative solutions to a variety of design situations.
These guidelines are intended as a supplement to the development regulations in Title 17 of the City of Sacramento Development Code. These guidelines shall prevail when there is a difference, otherwise the regulations of Title 17 shall be applicable.
1.2 Context and Applicability
The Plan Area, approximately 140.7 acres in size, is located south of the Detroit Boulevard Neighborhood and west of the Deerfield Mesa Grande Neighborhood, separated by Sacramento Regional Transit's Blue Line light rail route and Morrison Creek.
A 14.0- acre portion of the Plan Area located in the southeast corner, currently owned by SRCSD, is not included in these PUD Guidelines. The land use for this area is detention basin and open space, which is consistent with the existing zoning of Agriculture.
The south boundary of the Plan Area is Cosumnes River
Boulevard, the west boundary is the extensi on of 24th Avenue, the east boundary is along Morrison Creek and the north boundary is irregular, abutting the City of Sacramento site and abutting the Detroit Boulevard Neighborhood in the northeast corner of the Plan Area.
The Plan Area has been organized into 4 sub- areas:
The Transit Village, the North Village, Central Village and West Village as shown in Exhibit 1. The PUD
Schematic Plan, Exhibit 2, is shown on page 4.
Exhibit 1: Sub Areas/Villages
PUD GUIDELINES 2
Stone Beetland is a Transit Priority Project (TPP), which is a new type of project created by SB 375. As a TPP, the project is required to incorporate and comply with the following criteria:
1) At least 50% of total site must be designated for residential use. 2) Be consistent with the use designation, density, building intensity, and applicable policies of the regional sustainable community’s strategy.
3) Be located within ½ mile of a high‐quality transit corridor included in the regional transportation plan (No parcel shall be more than 25% further, and less than 10% of units, no or more than 100 units further than 0.5 miles). 4) Achieves a minimum of 20 dwelling units to the net acre.
Consistent with the TPP criteria, the density and intensity of the land uses is highest at the eastern edge adjacent to the Transit Stop and gradually decreases towards the north and west. The West Village, which is beyond the ½ mile distance from the transit stop, has a maximum of 100 primary dwelling units. The minimum overall density of 20 dwelling units per net acre must be maintained.
The West Village and North Villages are anticipated to include single-unit detached housing products which will conform to the R-1A Single-Unit/ Duplex Dwelling Zone and development standards pursuant to Section 17.204 Article III of the City Code.
The three HDR parcels in the Transit Village will conform to R-4 Multi Unit Zone and development standards pursuant to Section
17.208 Article V of the City Code. The 6 acre Commercial parcel within the Transit Village will conform to C -1, Limited Commercial Zone and development standards pursuant to Section 17.216 Article VI of the City Code.
The Central Village anticipates for a variety of creative lot types, such as compact detached lots, halfplexes, I-courts, courtyard homes, bungalows, condominiums and townhomes. The underlying zone is R-2A, however the anticipated housing products willnot conform to the minimum lot area, dimensions , driveway lengths and setback requirements of the R -2A zone and development standards per Section 17.208 Article I of the City Code . Section 2.1 of these PUD Guidelines provides development standards for the Central Village.
1.3 Land Use Mix
Table 1-1 Land Use Mix lists the anticipated housing types for each Village, however these PUD Guidelines are intended to allow the flexibility to change housing types within any village in response to changing market conditions subject to the following:
1. The overall net density of the Plan Area may not be less than 20 units per net residential acre. Net acres is defined as follows: “Acre, net” means the total area of a site excluding land dedicated to a public agency for parks, public buildings, schools, PUD GUIDELINES 3
street right-of-way, and utility facilities; private park and recreation facilities that receive parkland dedication credit under this code; and private street right-of-way when built to city street standards.
2. The total number of dwelling units to be built within a particular village shall fall within the PUD Density Range and Anticipated DU’s as listed in Table 1-1. However, the total number of dwelling units in the West Village (if adjusted, any portion of the West Village beyond ½ mile from the Transit Stop) may not exceed 100 primary residential dwelling units. Accessory dwelling units (ADU’s) are permitted by right u nder state law (Gov’t Code §65852.2), as restated at City Code Section

1. 4 Circ ula tion System - Stree ts and Non-Vehicula r
Stone Beetland incorporates the values of new urbanism and smart growth. A modified grid pattern of streets is utilized to provide excellent connectivity between neighbors and separated sidewalks and street tree plantings will provide for a pleasant, shaded walking environment. The Mobility Framework Plan, Exhibit 3, is shown on page 6.
The circulation system and streetscapes are significant factors in determining the character and identity of a community.
Placement of curb bulb- outs may be considered at var ious locations in the project to serve as a traffic calming devices and provide a pedestrian priority intersection designs, such as the primary entry into Stone Beetland community on C Street near the CMU site in the Transit Village. The circulation system should be logical, predictable, and designed to promote safety for all transportation modes, particularly pedestrians and bicyclists.
The residential village neighborhoods are designed to provide a mix of housing types which are integrated and interconnected.
Each of the four Villages are oriented with a park or open space as a central focal element. All residents will be within a 5 minute walk (1/4 mile) to a park, activity area or greenbelt trail. In addition, approximately 80% of the total residences are less than 10 minute walk (½ mile) to the Light Rail stop. Tree lined streets, convenient access to trails and safe street crossings will promote a neighborhood identity of connectedness and interaction. Convenient bicycle and pedestrian paths will encourage these modes of transportation, thereby reducing vehicular trips.
1. 5 Parks and Open Space
Approximately 23% of the site is dedicated to public parks, landscape corridors, open spaces, landscape lots and drainage basins. The Mobility Plan on page 6 illustrates these facilities. The public areas provide a visual amenity for the enjoyment of future residents and space for recreational activities to improve public health.
Three neighborhood parks sites are provided, totaling 9.1 acres. A 5% private facilities credit of is also given for the HOA maintained central spine trail amenity that extends from 24 th Street on the west to proposed C Street, linking the West and Central neighborhoods to the Transit Village. Based on 1,163 proposed housing units, the parkland dedication is 9.55 acres, however with the 5% private facilities credit of 0.477 , the required park acreage is reduced to 9.0 73 acres. Park design shall comply with the City of Sacramento Department of Parks and Recreation Design Guidelines.
1.6 Procedures for Approval and Amendments
The procedures for approval of development under, as well as amendments to, these PUD guidelines are as set forth in Chapter
17.452 of Title 17 of the Sacramento City Code, and may be amended occasionally.

2.2 Design Guidelines
Development within the Plan Area will follow the Citywide Design Guidelines, as applicable. The following Design Guidelines address specific aspects of the project design and shall supercede the Citywide Design Guidelines. Where these guidelines are silent, the Citywide Design Guidelines shall prevail.
A. Community Design
1. Circulation and mobility patterns should emphasize high degree of connectivity to allow vehicular, bike and pedestrian linkages with the adjacent Detroit Boulevard neighborhood and City Property to the north.
B. Neighborhood Design
1. Individual lots and homes shall not have garage driveways face onto A Street to avoid “back-up” conflicts with vehicular traffic.
2. All homes/residential units are encouraged to front onto residential streets, onto trails and open space, to the extent feasible.
3. The lots surrounding Lot P3 (in the northeast corner of the community) or in close proximity, shall be generally oriented to front on to the extension of Ann Arbor Way and the landscape amenity to provide “eyes-on-the-park”.
4. Houses adjacent to paseos should consider locating entrances along the pathways to increase natural surveillance.
C. Detached and Attached Residential Housing Design
1. The floor plans and elevations should be designed to ensure that garages not dominate the streetscape and will be subordinate to the main living area/designated outdoor living space.
2. To achieve diverse and varied streetscapes, garages or carports shall be setback from the front property line farther than or equal to the front façade of the building.
3. Floor plans should include covered front porches and other techniques to de-emphasize garage doors.
4. Encourage providing enhanced elevations and active, useable porches for housing units facing a public street, school, park, basins, trails or other public spaces.
PUD GUIDELINES 13
5. Encourage builders to design some lots to accommodate accessory dwelling units (ADU’s), where feasible.
6. Encourage builders to minimize the amount and footprint of vehicle parking, such as tandem garages and shared parking areas.
7. Home designs for the LDR-1 neighborhood shall include at least one single story floor plan.
D. Trails, Greenbelts and Paseos
1. The Greenbelts and Pedestrian paseos should be illuminated to a minimum of 1/3 foot candles per square foot area at a 6:1 average to minimum ratio.

3. Houses adjacent to paseos should consider orienting front doors along the pathways and/or utilize “corner” home elevations to increase natural surveillance.
E. Perimeter Fencing and Signage
1. A Perimeter Fencing Plan has been developed to identify the appropriate fencing treatments to address a variety of conditions related to visibility, security, noise and maintenance. The Perimeter Fencing Plan, Exhibit 5, is provided on page 15.
2. Wayfinding and distance signage to the light rail station should be provided at the CMU parcel ( Lot C) and the HDR parcels (Lots D, E and F) and along M and E Streets.
F. Landscape Design
1. Enhanced landscaping should be provided at all street entrances along Cosumnes River Boulevard and 24th Street to provide a sense of arrival and community identity.
2. Incorporate trees to shade new and existing pavements to the full extent feasible, in addition to meeting the parking lot tree shading requirement.
3. Landscaping should consist of climate-appropriate plantings, including drought-tolerant and native species suited to Sacramento.
PUD GUIDELINES 14
G. Sustainability
1. Use of cool pavement and certified cool roofs is encouraged, where feasible. Use of cool pavement is particularly encouraged in the alleyways providing access to the “I” C ourt/6 pack homes in the northern portions of MDR 1 and MDR-2.

a. The proposed map is consistent with the General Plan, all applicable community and specific plans, Title 17 of the City Code, and all other applicable provisions of the City Code;
b. The design and improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan, all applicable community and specific plans, Title 17 of the City Code, and all other applicable provisions of the City Code as conditioned;
c. The site is physically suitable for the type of development; d. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development; e. The design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat;
f. The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements are not likely 3 to cause serious public health problems;
g. The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through, or use of, property within the proposed subdivision.
2. The proposed subdivision, together with the provisions for its design and improvement, is consistent with the General Plan, all applicable community and specific plans, Title 17 of the City Code, and all other applicable provisions of the City Code (Gov. Code §66473.5);
3. The discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into the existing community sewer system will not result in a violation of the applicable waste discharge requirements prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality Board, Central Valley Region, in that existing treatment plants have a design capacity adequate to service the proposed subdivision (Gov. Code §66474.6);
4. The design of the proposed subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities (Gov. Code §66473.1); and
5. The City has considered the effect of the approval of this Tentative Subdivision Map on the housing needs of the region and has balanced these needs against the public service needs of its residents and available fiscal and environmental resources (Gov. Code §66412.3).
Tentative Map Design Deviations
1. The property to be divided is of such size or shape, or is affected by such topographic conditions, or that there are special circumstances or conditions affecting the property that it is impossible, impractical, or undesirable in the particular case to conform to the strict application of these regulations;
2. The cost to the subdivider of strict or literal compliance with the regulation is not the sole reason for granting the deviation;
3. The deviation will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or be injurious to other properties in the vicinity; and
4. That granting the deviation is in accord with the intent and purposes of these regulations and is consistent with the general plan and with all other applicable specific plans of the city.
4 B. The Site Plan and Design Review of the Tentative Subdivision Map is approved based on the following findings of fact:
1. The design, layout, and physical characteristics of the proposed development are consistent with the proposed general plan designations of Traditional Neighborhood Medium Density, Park and Recreation, Public Quasi Public, Urban Neighborhood Medium Density, and Traditional Center, in that the proposed design of the subdivision will prioritize connections to the Morrison Creek Light Rail station and public parks through a network of public and private trails and public street networks intended to promote walking, biking, and alternative modes of transportation. The proposed lot layout efficiently utilizes vacant urban infill site with an array of housing types available to various income levels. The project has been carefully designed to implement criteria to meet the guidelines of a Transit Priority Project by increasing residential density near public transportation.
2. The design, layout, and physical characteristics of proposed development are consistent with the purpose and intent of the applicable design guidelines and development standards, in that the Stone Beetland Planned Unit Development design guidelines list criteria intended to create a cohesive neighborhood design. The layout of the subdivision has been evaluated related to circulation patterns, lot orientation, and the relationship with the surrounding community. The project will construct infrastructure that will connect and expand public and private open spaces, road networks, and a lotting pattern intended to create homes that engage public spaces.
Additionally, each lot has adequate access to the public right-of-way via a series of public and private driveways.
3. All streets and other public access ways and facilities, parking facilities, and utility infrastructure are adequate to serve the proposed development and comply with all applicable design guidelines and development standards, in that the street network has been reviewed by the Traffic Engineering Division of Public Works and determined adequate to provide safe public access.

Park Dedication – IOD: Pursuant to Sacramento City Code Chapter 17.512 (Parkland Dedication) the applicant shall provide on City’s form an irrevocable offer of dedication (IOD) of the parks sites identified on the tentative map as Lots P-1, P-2, P-3. Gross acreage totals 9.09 acres. At the time of delivery of the IOD, the applicant shall enter into an Agreement with the City to (1) provide to City a title report demonstrating that it holds full and clear title to Lots P-1, P-2, P- 3, including all interests necessary for maintenance and access; (2) provide a 24 Phase 1 environmental site assessment of Lots P-1, P-2, P-3; (3) if the environmental site assessment identifies any physical conditions or defects in Lots P-1, P-2, P-3 which would interfere with its intended use as a park, as determined by the City’s Park Planning and Development Services Division (PPDS) in its sole discretion, applicant shall complete a supplemental assessment and remedy any such physical condition or defect, to the satisfaction of PPDS; (4) take all actions necessary to ensure that Lots P-1, P-2, P-3 are free and clear of any wetland mitigation, endangered or threatened animal or plant species, sensitive habitat, tree removal or protection requirements, or other development restrictions. The applicant shall be solely responsible, and at its sole cost, for any required mitigation costs or measures associated with Lots P-1, P-2, P-3; and 5) The Park Lots shall be clear of any construction related debris or stockpiling.
A108. Basis for Park Land Dedication: Total park land dedication requirement for Stone Beetland is +9.56 acres based upon the zone’s maximum housing unit count of 452 single-family dwelling units and 711 multi-family dwelling units.
Parkland acreage dedication is determined according to the formula D x F = A, where D = the number of dwelling units, F = a ‘factor’ that when multiplied by the number of units will produce 3.5 acres per thousand population (for single-family detached units the factor is 0.0095, and A = the buildable acres to be dedicated.) Because parkland dedication requirements are based on unit type and count, the number of acres of parkland dedicated with the Tentative Subdivision Map establishes a limit on the number and type of units that may be approved without additional parkland dedication or in-lieu fee obligations under Sacramento City Code Chapter 17.512. Any changes in the unit type and count will affect the number of acres of parkland dedication requirement for subsequent maps.
Tentative Map park lots (P1, P-2, and P-3) gross acreage totals 9 acres. The remaining Quimby parkland dedication of 0.47 should be resolved with either the payment of Quimby in-Lieu fees, or a reduction of parkland through credit for eligible private recreation facilities, to be confirmed at the time of final map.
A109. Park Land Dedication Security: Each phased tentative subdivision map subsequent to the Tentative Subdivision Map may or may not be able to completely satisfy its Quimby land dedication requirements as a stand alone map, but the intent is to balance the land dedication overall. Should any phased map subsequent to the Tentative Subdivision Map contain less park land than is required to meet its Quimby parkland dedication requirement, including the accumulated totals for both residential units and parkland for all preceding final maps, the Applicant shall provide the City with a Letter of Credit or other authorized security in a form approved by the City Attorney and in an amount 25 equal in value to the balance of parkland due to secure the dedication of parkland for the Final Map. The Letter of Credit shall be released by the City upon acceptance of the IOD for the balance of the parkland dedication due. The dedication of excess parkland does not obligate the City to reimburse the Applicant for the value of the land dedicated. Excess dedication is at the option of the Applicant.
A110. Payment of In-Lieu Park Fee: Pursuant to City Code Chapter 17.512 (Parkland Dedication) the applicant shall pay to the city an in-lieu fee in the amount determined under SCC §§17.512.30 and 17.512.40 equal to the value of land that is not satisfied by dedication or met by the provision of approved private recreational facilities.
A111. Private Recreation Facility Credits: City Code Chapter 17.512, Sections
17.512.90 through 100 address granting of private recreation facility credits. The city may grant credits for privately owned and maintained open space or local recreation facilities, or both, in planned developments as defined in Section 11003 of the Business and Professions Code, condominiums as defined in Section 783 of the Civil Code, and other common interest developments. Such credit, if granted in acres, or comparable in lieu fees, shall not exceed twenty-five (25) percent of the dedication or fees, or both, otherwise required under this chapter and no more than five percent per category of open space or recreational facilities described in this Chapter under 17.512.90. This project is eligible for Private Recreation Facilities Credits (PRFC) to offset the parkland dedication acreage requirement. The project is eligible for up to 25% PRFC, 5% for each eligible amenity. A full list of eligible amenities is listed in City Code section
17.512.90 through 100. The City agrees to a 5% (0.48 acre) private recreation facility credit for the Central Spine Trail, i.e.. Lot C, D, E and F on the Tentative Subdivision Map. The result shall be a reduction of the Project’s Parkland Dedication obligation from 9.56 acres to 9.082 acres. Should the Applicant request City consideration of private recreational facilities, a separate agreement must be approved by the City Council prior to recordation of the subdivision map for the project.

Proposed Design Deviations
Stone Beetland Property
Sacramento, California
The proposed Stone Beetland project is located directly adjacent to the Morrison Creek RT Light Rail Station. The project is designed to provide a mixed-use community with a range of residential densities that will be designed to be highly transi t supportive utilizing a system of trails and bike facilities to encourage connections to transit. The following are the proposed design deviations to the City of Sacramento Design & Procedures Manual that are reflected on the project’s Tentative Subdivision Map in order to achieve the highe r residential densities and transit-oriented development design. The loca tions of these deviations are high lighted on the enclosed Tentative Subdivision Map.
Design Deviation #1 – A Street
Elimination of northern parking aisle and sidewalk on A Street.
Description of the Deviation
A Street is a Minor Collector. The proposed street section for A Street deviates from the Typical Cross-Section for a Minor Collector per Plate 15-5 of the Design & Procedures Manual. The deviations proposed remove the parking lane and sidewalk along the northern side of this street.
Justification of the Deviation
A Street is adjacent to a Class I trail corridor planned along the northern boundary of the project.
There are no proposed land uses directly along this northern side of the street. Accordingly, the parking and sidewalks are not necessary along this north side of the A Street.
Facts Supporting the Deviation
The proposed street section will implement the following goals and policies of the General Plan:
Policy LU 2.1.3
Complete and Well-Structured Neighborhoods – promote the design of complete and well- structured neighborhoods whose physical layout promote walking, biking, and transit use.

Revised: May 31, 2023
P:\3300 - 3399\3377-000\Memos\Memo-001_Stone Beetland_Design Deviations_01 rev.docx Policy LU 2.5.1
Connected Neighborhoods, Corridors and Centers – minimize barriers between neighborhoods and open space corridors.
Policy LU 2.5.2
Overcoming Barriers to Accessibility – remo ve and minimize the effect of manmade barriers to accessibility between neighborhoods and open space corridors.
Policy 4.1.2
Neighborhood Amenities – provide convenient access with walking and biking distances for city residents.
Policy M 6.1.4
Reduction of Parking Areas – reduce the amount of land devoted to parking.
Design Deviation #2 – H Street & Albion Way
Modified residential street sections of H Street and Albion Way to match the existing street section to the north.
Description of the Deviation
H Street and Albion Way are residential streets that are extensions of existing streets to the north within the Detroit Neighborhood. The proposed street section for these streets deviates from the Typical Cross-Section for a Residential Street per Plate 15-2 of the Design & Procedures Manual.
The deviations propose to eliminate the landscape planter and provide a 6-foot sidewalk (including the 6-inch curb width).
Justification of the Deviation
H Street and Albion Way are extensions of exis ting streets to the north. The proposed street sections for these streets match the existing conditi ons to the north. This is consistent with Note #4 on Plate 15-2 that indicates the planters may be eliminated to conform to existing streets.
Facts Supporting the Deviation
The proposed street section will implement the following goals and policies of the General Plan:
Policy LU 4.1.7:
Neighborhood Transitions – provide for appropriate transitions in order to maintain consistent scale, form, and character on both sides of public streetscapes.

Revised: May 31, 2023
P:\3300 - 3399\3377-000\Memos\Memo-001_Stone Beetland_Design Deviations_01 rev.docx Policy LU 4.5.2:
Compact neighborhoods: create new residential neighborhoods th at include efficient use of land and infrastructure by being compact with higher average densities.
Design Deviation #3 – MDR-1 Intersection Spacing
Intersection spacing between intersections on the same side of the street is less than 120-feet from the nearest curb return to nearest curb return.
Description of the Deviation
The intersections within MDR-1 are spaced less th an 120-feet, but not less than 114-feet, as measured from nearest curb return to nearest curb return.
Justification of the Deviation
The proposed medium density residential la nd use within the MDR-1 neighborhood includes small-lot single family residential lots with a typical dimension of 34-feet wide and 73-feet deep.
The typical depth of 73-feet results in a reduced intersection spacing that is less than the standard of 120-feet minimum per Section 15-7.3 of the Design & Procedures Manual.
Facts Supporting the Deviation
The proposed street section will implement the following goals and policies of the General Plan:
Policy LU 4.5.2:
Compact Neighborhoods – create new residential neighborhoods that include efficient use of land and infrastructure by being compact with higher average densities.
Policy H 2.2.1
Quality Infill Development – promote quality infill development by maintaining and implementing flexible development standards.
Design Deviation #4 – LDR-2 & 3 Residential Street Section
Modified residential street section to match the existing street section to the north.
Description of the Deviation
The street sections within LDR-2 & 3 are propos ed to eliminate the landscape parkways. This provides consistency with the existing streets within the Detroit Neighborhood to the north of these proposed neighborhoods. The Typical Cross-Section for a Residential Street per Plate 15-2 of the Stone Beetland Property- Proposed Design Deviations March 28, 2023
Revised: May 31, 2023
P:\3300 - 3399\3377-000\Memos\Memo-001_Stone Beetland_Design Deviations_01 rev.docx Design & Procedures Manual includes Note #4 that indicates the planter may be removed to meet residential housing densities or to conform to existing streets.
Justification of the Deviation
The proposed street sections for these streets match the existing conditions to the north and are necessary to meet the desired residential densities for this portion of the project. This is consistent with Note #4 of Plate 15-2 as mentioned above.
Facts Supporting the Deviation
The proposed street section will implement the following goals and policies of the General Plan:
Policy LU 4.1.7:
Neighborhood Transitions – provide for appropriate transitions in order to maintain consistent scale, form, and character on both sides of public streetscapes.
Policy LU 4.5.2:
Compact Neighborhoods – create new residential neighborhoods that include efficient use of land and infrastructure by being compact with higher average densities.
Design Deviation #5 – LDR-2 Cul-de-Sac Length
The length of Q Court exceeds the maximum lengt h of a cul-de-sac, but an emergency access connection is provided to Burlington Way.
Description of the Deviation
The length of Q Court exceeds 500-feet, which is th e maximum length of a cul-de-sac defined in City Code Section 16.40.080. A proposed emergency vehicle access connection to Burlington Way to the north is provided near the end of this cul-de-sac to provide a second point of emergency access less than 500 feet from the end of the cul-de-sac.
Justification of the Deviation
The proposed length of the Q Court cul-de-sac adhe res to the feedback fr om the existing Detroit Neighborhood to the north and limits vehicular connections from the proposed project to the existing neighborhood streets. Accordingly, only an emergency access connection is provided to Burlington Way.

The proposed street section will implement the following goals and policies of the General Plan:
Policy LU 4.1.7:
Neighborhood Transitions – provide for appropriate transitions in order to maintain consistent scale, form, and character on both sides of public streetscapes.
Policy LU 4.5.2:
Compact Neighborhoods – create new residential neighborhoods that include efficient use of land and infrastructure by being compact with higher average densities.
Design Deviation #6 – D and E Street Intersection
Intersection angle less than 90-degrees at the D and E Street Intersection.
Description of the Deviation
The alignment of D Street is set to be parallel with the eastern boundary line, RT railway line, and the RT station parking lot. This is at an acute angle relative to the alignment of the north and south boundaries, which sets the alignment of E Street. This results in this intersection of D and E Street to be approximately 76-degrees, which is less than the 90-degrees noted in the Design and Procedures Manual.
Justification of the Deviation
The alignments of D and E Street are set in order to maintain optimized blocks of the high-density residential parcels planned directly adjacent to the RT station. In order to create a perpendicular intersection at this location, approximately 0.5-acre of HDR-3 would be lost, which is not feasible to meet the Transit-Oriented Development goals of the project. Additionally, this intersection is positioned to align with the entry to the RT station parking lot. The parking lot entry modifications have been coordinated with RT Planning and Engineering Staff. Lastly, the sight distances and truck turning maneuvers through the proposed intersection have been evaluated and are depicted on the enclosed supplemental exhibit to demonstrate there are no conflicts.
Facts Supporting the Deviation
The proposed street section will implement the following goals and policies of the General Plan:

1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report
presents the results of a
n arborist survey
conducted for the
Stone Beetland
Property (Study
Area)
by Madrone Ecological Consulting, LLC (Madrone)
on 21 March 2022
.
The
approximately
127
-
acre
Study Area
is
west of Morrison Creek north of Cosumnes River
Boulevard
, and approximately
1 mile east
of Interstate 5
within
the City of Sacramento, Sacramento County, California. The Study Area is located within Sections
7, 8,
17 and 18
,
Township 7 North
,
Range 5 East (MDB&M)
(
Longitude
-
121.469194,
Latitude 38.466
003
; NAD83) and is portrayed on
the “
Florin, California
” 7.5
-
Minute Series USGS
Topographic Quadrangle (USGS 2018
) (
Figure 1
).
2.0 GENERAL SITE CONDITIONS AND HABITAT
According to LiDAR elevation data provided to Sacramento County by Merrick & Company in 2004 and 2007, the Study Area is situated on
relatively flat terrain at elevations ranging from approximately 6 to 18 feet above sea level.
Most of the site is characterized by flat terrain that has been historically leveled, ditched, and drained for agricultural use. The northeastern corner displ
ayed uneven topography due to the presence of several
trash and spoils piles; several “squatter” gardens were located within the Study Area along the northeastern fence line and appear to have been planted by residents from the abutting neighborhood to the
north. An abandoned California Highway Patrol drivers training track is also located to the north of the Study Area and west of the aforementioned neighborhood.
Fallow agricultural lands occupy areas to the south and west, and the eastern boundary borde rs the toe of
a large levee constructed along Morrison Creek. A portion of the Sacramento Regional Transit Light Rail “Blue Line” (Light Rail)
and Light Rail station
parallels the eastern boundary just west of Morrison Creek.
2.1 Annual
Brome Grasslands
The majority of the Study Area historically supported agricultural lands that were partially
impacted
during the construction of the Light Rail and Cosumnes River Boulevard, which started in the early 2010’s.
Since the completion of these p
rojects, approximately 9.31 acres of the site has reverted to annual brome grasslands that are characterized by soft chess (
Bromus hordeaceus
), wild oats (
Avena fatua
), rip
-
gut
brome (
Bromus diandrus
), and perennial rye (
Lolium perenne
)
. Common
herbaceous species include
prickly lettuce (
Lactuca serriola
), yellow star
-
thistle (
Centauria solstitialis
), and alkali mallow (
Malvella
leprosa
).
2.2 Mixed
Riparian
Woodland
Approximately 0.46 acre of mixed riparian woodland comprised of small stands of sandbar willow (
Salix
exigua
) and a scattered mix of escaped non
-
native fruit/ornamental species flank the east bank of

Morrison Creek. This area also includes poison oak (
Toxicodendron diversilobum
), edible fig (
Ficus carica
),
and Himalayan blac
kberry (
Rubus armeniacus
)
.
This area appears to have burned in 2021.
2.3 Developed
Approximately 2.73 acres of developed lands were mapped within the Study Area. Developed lands refer to constructed, heavily
graded, and/or
heavily compacted features such as the
Light Rail
line and its base
and overpass, levee access roads, a gravel staging area, and the portions of the levee within the Study Area adjacent to Morrison Creek
. Vegetation, if present, is typically sparse or ruderal and includ
es
stinkwort (
Dittrichia graveolens
), Russian thistle (
Salsola tragus
), tumbleweed amaranth (
Amaranthus
albus
), pigweed amaranth (
A. blitoides
), rough cocklebur (
Xanthium strumarium
), wild
radish (
Raphanus
sativus
), milk thistle (
Silybum marianum
), bindweed (
Convolvulus arvensis
), black mustard (
Brassica nigra
),
and broad leaf filaree (
Erodium botrys
).
There are
several non
-
native ornamental tree plantings located
along the landscaped margin
on the north side of
Cosumnes
River Boulevard.
3.0 METHODOLOGY
Madrone
ISA Certified
A
rborist Daria Snider
(#WE
-
8666A)
conducted the arborist survey with assistance
from Madrone senior biologist
Dustin Brown
on 21 March 2022
. The survey was conducted in accordance
with the
Sacramento
City
Code Section 12.56
on
tree planting, maintenance, and conservation.
Prior to the s
urvey
Madrone queried the City of Sacramento database of City Trees to determine whether any City
or Private Protected
Trees were within the Study Area.
A City Tree means any tree which, when
the trunk is measured, measure
d
four and one
-
half feet above gro
und, is partially or completely located in
a City park, on the City’s property, or on a public right -
of
-
way (i.e., any street, road, sidewalk, park, alley,
etc.). The Sacramento City Code defines a “Private Protected Tree” as follows:
A.
A tree that is design
ated by city council resolution to have special
historical value, special
environmental value, or significant community
benefit, and is located on private property;
B.
Any native Valley Oak (
Quercus lobata
), Blue Oak (
Quercus douglasii
),
Interior Live Oak (
Quercus
wislizenii
), Coast Live Oak (
Quercus agrifolia
),
California Buckeye (
Aesculus californica
), or
California Sycamore
(
Platanus racemosa
), that has a
Diameter at Standard Height (
DSH
)
of 12
inches or more, and is located
on private property;
C.
A tree th
at has a DSH of 24 inches or more located on private property
that:
1. I
s an undeveloped lot; or
2. D
oes not include any single unit or duplex dwellings; or
3. A tree that has a DSH of 32 inches or more located on private property
that includes any
single unit or d
uplex dwellings.
As part of this inventory all native trees with a DSH of 12 inches or more and any tree with a DSH of 24 inches or more were
surveyed.

2022
For each tree surveyed, Ms. Snider recorded the tree identification number, tree species, D S
H,
approximate dripline radius, and general health and structure.
A
luminum tag
s
with a unique identification
number
were
nailed into the trunk
of each surveyed tree
. Th
e location of each tree was recorded
with a
GPS unit capable of sub
-
meter accuracy (
EOS Tools Arrow
100
).
4.0 RESULTS
A total of
three
native
trees with a
DSH
greater than
12 inches
were inventoried within the
Study Area
.
The data
are summarized in Table 1 and
a map of
the inventoried trees
is included as

5.0 REPLACEMENT PLAN
A total of
three
trees
will be remove
d by the Project including
one interior live oak (tree
597), one
Northern California black walnut
(tree 599), and one Valley oak (tree 600).
Of these
three
trees, only
the
two
native
oak trees
(trees 597 and 600)
qualify as Private Protected trees
.
Tree 597 is in poor
health due
to being burned
severely
in a fire in
2021 and
do
es not require
replacement mitigation for removal. Thus,
tree 600 is the only tree planned for removal that
will require replacement mitigation.
Replacement options may be achieved by onsite planting of 20 DSH of native oak trees
as described
below
or by the payment of in
-
lieu fees equal to $325 per inch or $
6,500
.
If the project proponent
chooses to pay in
-
lieu fees
, t
he fees are
paid to the City of Sacramento and are due when the plann ed
project has been approved and the appeal period has expired. An invoice will be mailed to the applicant of the tree permit application around the middle of the month following planning project app roval and it
is payable upon receipt.
If the project proponent chooses to conduct onsite replacement plantings as mitigation,
the following specifications shall be followed. Each 15 -
gallon planting shall be equivalent to 1
inch DSH, each 24” box planting s
hall be equivalent to 2 DSH, and each 36” box or bigger shall be equivalent to 3 DSH. Each native oak planting shall require a minimum planter width of seven feet and a
minimum planter length of 14
-
feet. The planting
s
shall be planted no less than 35 feet
apart and shall be
adequately irrigated.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report presents the results of a
n arborist survey
conducted for the
Sacramento County Sanitation
District (SRCSD) Property (Study Area)
by Madrone Ecological Consulting, LLC (Madrone)
on 21 March
2022
.
The
approximately 1
4.55 -
acre
Study Area
is
west of the confluence of Morrison and Beacon Creeks
north of Cosumnes River Boulevard within
the City of Sacramento, Sacramento County, California. The Study Area is located within Sections 17
and 18
,
Township 7 North
,
Range 5 East (MDB&M)
(
Longitude
-
121.469194, Latitude 38.466003
; NAD83) and is portrayed on
the “
Florin, California
” 7.5
-
Minute S
eries
USGS Topographic Quadrangle (USGS 2018
) (
Figure 1
).
2.0 GENERAL SITE CONDITIONS AND HABITAT
According to LiDAR elevation data provided to Sacramento County by Merrick & Company in 2004 and 2007, the Study Area is situated on relatively flat terrain
at elevations ranging from approximately 4 to 20
feet above mean sea level.
Most of the site is characterized by flat terrain that has been historically leveled, ditched, and drained for agricultural use. Fallow lands occupy areas to the north, south, and west, and the eastern boundary
parallels a reach of Morrison Creek. Morrison Creek, which merges with a reach of Beacon Creek near the southernmost portion of the Study Area, generally flows from north to south and is bracketed by large levees on both
sides.
The Sacramento Regional Transit Light Rail “Blue Line” (Light Rail) bisects the east half of the parcel along an approximate north
-
south axis, and the recently
-
opened (29 August 2021) Morrison Creek Light Rail
station is situated to the north.
2.1 Annual Brome Grasslands
The majority of the Study Area historically supported agricultural lands that were heavily impacted during the construction of the Light Rail and Cosumnes River Boulevard, which started in the early 2010’s. Since the completion of
these projects, approximately 9.31 acres of the site has reverted to annual brome grasslands that are characterized by soft chess (
Bromus hordeaceus
), wild oats (
Avena fatua
), rip
-
gut
brome (
Bromus diandrus
), and perennial rye (
Lolium perenne
) (
Figure 3
).
Common herbaceous species
include prickly lettuce (
Lactuca serriola
), yellow star
-
thistle (
Centauria solstitialis
), and alkali mallow
(
Malvella leprosa
).
2.2 Mixed
Riparian
Woodland
Approximately 0.46 acre of mixed riparian woodland comprised of small stands of sandbar willow (
Salix
exigua
) and a scattered mix of escaped non
-
native fruit/ornamental species flank the east bank of
Morrison Creek. This area also includes poison oak (
Toxicodendron diversilobum
), edible fig (
Ficus carica
),
Arborist Report

and
Himalayan blackberry (
Rubus armeniacus
) (
Figure 3
). A well
-
developed homeless encampment is
present in this area.
2.3 Developed
Approximately 2.73 acres of developed lands were mapped within the Study Area. Developed lands refer to constructed, heavily
g
raded, and/or heavily compacted features such as the
Light Rail
line and its base
and overpass, levee access roads, a gravel staging area, and the portions of the levee within the Study Area adjacent to Morrison Creek (
Figure
3 ). Vegetation, if present, is typically sparse or ruderal and includ
es
stinkwort (
Dittrichia graveolens
), Russian thistle (
Salsola tragus
), tumbleweed amaranth
(
Amaranthus albus
), pigweed amaranth (
A. blitoides
), rough cocklebur (
Xanthium strumarium
), wild
radish
(
Raphanus
sativus
), milk thistle (
Silybum marianum
), bindweed (
Convolvulus arvensis
), black mustard
(
Brassica nigra
), and broad leaf filaree (
Erodium botrys
).
3.0 METHODOLOGY
Madrone
ISA Certified
A
rborist Daria Snider
(#WE
-
8666A)
conducted the arborist survey with assistance
from Madrone senior biologist
Dustin Brown
on 21 March 2022
. The survey was conducted in accordance
with the
Sacramento
City
Code Section 12.56
on
tree planting, maintenance, and conservation.
Prior to the s
urvey
Madrone queried the City of Sacramento database of City Trees to determine whether any City
or Private Protected
Trees were within the Study Area.
A City Tree means any tree which, when
the trunk is measured, measure
d
four and one
-
half feet above gro
und, is partially or completely located in
a City park, on the City’s property, or on a public right -
of
-
way (i.e., any street, road, sidewalk, park, alley,
etc.). The Sacramento City Code defines a “Private Protected Tree” as follows:
A.
A tree that is design
ated by city council resolution to have special
historical value, special
environmental value, or significant community
benefit, and is located on private property;
B.
Any native Valley Oak (
Quercus lobata
), Blue Oak (
Quercus douglasii
),
Interior Live Oak (
Quercus
wislizenii
), Coast Live Oak (
Quercus agrifolia
),
California Buckeye (
Aesculus californica
), or
California Sycamore
(
Platanus racemosa
), that has a
Diameter at Standard Height (
DSH
)
of 12
inches or more, and is located
on private property;
C.
A tree th
at has a DSH of 24 inches or more located on private property
that:
1. I
s an undeveloped lot; or
2. D
oes not include any single unit or duplex dwellings; or
3. A tree that has a DSH of 32 inches or more located on private property
that includes any
single unit or d
uplex dwellings.
As part of this inventory all native trees with a DSH of 12 inches or more and any tree with a DSH of 24 inches or more were
surveyed.
For each tree surveyed, Ms. Snider recorded the tree identification number, tree species, D S
H,
approximate dripline radius, and general health and structure.

number
were
nailed into the trunk
of each surveyed tree
with the exception of one inaccessible tree
(#1)
.
The location of each tree was recorded
with a GPS unit capable of sub
-
meter accuracy (
EOS Tools Arrow
100
).
In
one
case, dense
poison oak p
recluded access to the
tree trunk
. In
this case
,
no tag was attached
to the tree,
and
the DBH
and physical location
was estimated
.
The survey did not
include trees on the eastern banks of Morrison Creek as no impacts are proposed for that are
a, and the creek is not passable on foot.
4.0 RESULTS
A total of
seven native
trees with a
DSH
greater than
12 inches
were inventoried within the
Study Area
.
The data
are summarized in Table 1 and
a map of
the inventoried trees
is included as

Several of the trees were
burned in a fire in 2021. Tree 597 appears to have almost died and is resprouting mid
-
way up the trunk and from the base. Tree 1, a large Goodding’s
black willow is mostly dead and has
many cavities.
5.0 REPLACEMENT PLAN
A total of
four
trees
will be removed by the Project including two Goodding’s black willow trees (Trees 1 and 592) and two interior live oak trees (Trees 594 and 595).
Of these four tr
ees, only
the two interior live
oak trees qualify as Private Protected trees totaling 28 DSH
and require replacement.
Replacement options may be achieved by onsite planting of 28 DSH of native oak trees
as described
below
or by the payment of in
-
lieu fee
s equal to $325 per inch or $9,100
.
If the project proponent
chooses to pay in
-
lieu fees
, t
he fees are paid to the City of Sacramento and are due when the plann ed
project has been approved and the appeal period has expired. An invoice will be mailed to the applicant of the tree permit application around the middle of the month following planning project approval and it is payable upon receipt.
If the project propon
ent chooses to conduct onsite replacement plantings as
mitigation,
the following specifications shall be followed. Each 15 -
gallon planting shall be equivalent to 1
inch DSH, each 24” box planting shall be equivalent to 2 DSH, and each 36” box or bigger sha ll be
equivalent to 3 DSH. Each native oak planting shall require a minimum planter width of seven feet and a
Arborist Report

minimum planter length of 14
-
feet. The planting
s
shall be planted no less than 35 feet apart and shall be adequately irrigated.

Re: Project File Number P21-042 (Stone Beetland)
Dear Mr. Anguiano:
Thank you for routing the developer’s application for their Stone Beetland development located just south of our Detroit community. We are pleased to see new and diverse housing options, including transit-oriented development, in the pipeline.
In the application, the developer submitted plans for our community to provide a direct vehicle and pedestrian connection between Cosumnes River Boulevard and Meadowview Road. This would be achieved by connecting Stone Beetland at Detroit Boulevard, our main thoroughfare, and Ann Arbor Way. For over six decades, our community has always been closed to through traffic as it is one-way in, one-way out. With this new connection, especially to Cosumnes River Boulevard where there is a high amount of traffic, it not only means major change for us, but it may also introduce new traffic to our community that we are not familiar with and may not be prepared for. While we are pleased the developer listened to community concerns of increased traffic as a result of these new connections, we still hold reservations and would like further exploration and analysis on what impacts these new connections have.
We have the following recommendations:
1. Developer, City and Detroit neighborhood to further explore and analyze impacts of new vehicle and pedestrian connections to the Detroit neighborhood
2. Developer and City to be transparent and continue actively engaging the Detroit neighborhood on general development, traffic impacts, and changes to the application/plan
3. Explore traffic mitigation measures, including new traffic calming such as bulb-outs, stop signs, speed lumps, and lighted crosswalks both in Detroit and Stone Beetland
4. Prohibit construction vehicles in the Detroit neighborhood, unless when absolutely necessary on a limited basis, and in such cases provide street cleaning and repair when necessary, including following all Sac Metro Air District rules and regulations
5. Explore construction of larger park in North Village due to lack of City-owned park in the Detroit neighborhood
We look forward to working with the City and applicant on our recommendations.
Sincerely,
Charlotte Coron, Co-Chair, Detroit Community Association Larry Lee, Co-Chair, Detroit Community Association

RE: Stone Beetland (P21-042) Cycle 5
Dear Angel:
Thank you for providing Civic Thread the opportunity to comment on the 5th Cycle of plans put forth for Stone Beetland. The project is planned as a mixed-use community and transit priority project
In review of the latest developments, Civic Thread would like to offer the following comments:
Staff would like to commend the developers on the improved mobility network, specifically as it pertains to the additional Class I trails and Class II bike lanes along ‘Future 24th Street’ and ‘A Street’. These improvements will ensure a complete and comfortable internal network that will ideally facilitate increased walking and biking as a means of travel. We strongly recommend that developers coordinate with the developers of Delta Shores concerning the continuation of pedestrian and bike networks, particularly along ‘A Street’.
In addition to our highlight of the improved mobility network, we would like to offer the following recommendations which we feel will enhance the livability and quality of life particularly as it relates to the project serving as a ‘transit priority project.’ Civic Thread recommends providing or at minimum, clarifying, why developers cannot provide pedestrian access to all units along ‘A Street’ leading up to the park. Further, LDR2 and LDR3 plans indicate attached sidewalks to be utilized citing the desire to continue the existing conditions to the north. We recommend implementing separated sidewalks so as to create a more pleasant and user-friendly experience for pedestrians who may
