Three recent resolutions by the City Council have focused on the use of the public right of way for parklet purposes. The second reading of this Ordinance memorializes the Council’s previous policy direction.
1. Resolution No. 11118 (2020 Series) authorizes the implementation of the “Open SLO” pilot program for parklets.

Item 6c
DISCUSSION
On July 5, 2022, the City Council voted 5-0 to introduce Ordinance No. 1716 (2022 Series), which amends Title 5 (Licenses, Permits, and Regulations) of the Municipal Code to amend Chapter 5.50 (Sidewalk Cafés) and add Chapter 5.51 (Parklets). In addition, the City Council voted 5-0 to adopt Resolution No 11344, approving the City of San Luis Obispo Outdoor Dining Guide and adopting new fees for parklets, sidewalk cafes, and tables and chairs permits with the following changes outlined below:
1. Fee Adjustment. Council directed staff to adjust the proposed parklet use fee calculation to reduce the component of the use fee for street sweeping to assume a greater number of permanent parklets will remain (20 parklets in lieu of 10 parklets). This calculation results in an ultimate use fee of $6,760 annually ($42.25 per square foot) per parking space for a parklet.
2. Bike Corrals Community Benefit. Council directed staff to update the Outdoor Dining Guide and use fee schedule to clarify that the area for bike corrals should not be included when measuring the square footage used to calculate use fees for individual parklet operator, as the bike corrals provide community-wide benefit.
3. Parklet Perimeter/Barrier System. Council directed staff to update the Outdoor Dining Guide to clarify that parklet perimeter barrier systems must be constructed using metal or wood materials. The relevant section of the Outdoor Dining Guide design guidelines has been updated as follows:
“Parklets must have a continuous vertical barrier along each end, and along the exterior side adjacent to the vehicle travel lane. Unless otherwise approved by the City, this barrier must be between 36 and 42 inches in height (as measured from the parklet surface) and may shall be constructed using metal or wooden structures. The barrier system must be able to withstand a minimum of a 250-pound horizontal force and should have no gaps or openings larger than 4 inches to minimize potential for persons exiting the parklet into the street.”
4. Bicycle Parking Placement. The Council directed staff to update the Outdoor Dining Guide design guidelines to reflect the desired placement of on-street bicycle parking as follows:
“Parklets occupying two or more parking spaces will be required to include bicycle parking on the downside of the flow of traffic unless approved by the Public Works Director.”
Item 6c
5. Operating Requirements. Council directed staff to update the Outdoor Dining Guide to reflect the following changes to the section on operating requirements for outdoor dining operators:
“D. A path of travel for pedestrians shall be maintained free and clear of any existing obstacles (street furniture, utilities, etc.) to the satisfaction of the Public Works and Community Development Directors. Such clear pathway shall link continuously with pathways on each side of the property and shall allow a minimum clear space of 6 feet. For new sidewalk construction, the pathway should be 8 feet. These minimum widths are to ensure compliance with ADA standards and reduce liability concerns due to shifting tables, wait staff standing in the sidewalk or other obstructions which can reduce the effective width.
W. The parklet permit holder is required to keep the parklet area in activation, using the parklet for the intended use at least 5 days per week for at least 4 hours per day unless otherwise approved by the Community Development Director. due to an emergency,
inclement weather, or other approved reason.”
Ordinance No. 1716 amends Title 5 of the San Luis Obispo Municipal code by amending Chapter 5.50 (Sidewalk Cafes) and adding Chapter 5.51 (Parklets) and is provided as Attachment A to this staff report. Should Council adopt the ordinance, it would go into effect in 30 days, on August 19, 2022.
The final Outdoor Dining Guide as approved by the Council is available in Attachment B to this report. Resolution No. 11344 (2022 Series), approving the outdoor dining use fees and the Outdoor Dining Guide, was adopted on July 5, 2022, and is pending signature.
The final version of this resolution will be provided for reference as Council Agenda Correspondence prior to the July 19, 2022 hearing, while the Council Agenda Report for the July 5, 2022 outdoor dining topic is available for reference.
Public Engagement
The City Conducted a thorough engagement process in developing the final outdoor dining program, as outlined in the July 5, 2022 Council Agenda Report.
CONCURRENCE
Community Development and Public Works Departments concur on the contents of this report.
Item 6c
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The parklets and sidewalk cafes are categorically exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) because the actions are limited to permitting, leasing, and minor alteration of existing public facilities in the right of way within the program area.
Any new use of the right of way under the program by additional parklets is negligible when compared to the total linear square footage of the program area. The parklet and sidewalk café programs are consistent with the Engineering Standards. Projects which qualify for parklets, and sidewalk cafes will be required to comply with all relevant City standards, codes, and regulations.

Based upon Council direction at the July 5th meeting, the total cumulative cost to the City in creating and administering a permanent parklet program is estimated at approximately $6,760 per parking space annually for a parklet ($42.25 per square foot). This cost includes ongoing loss of parking meter revenue, contract services for manual street sweeping on a weekly basis, tree trimming, and program administration. This cost reflects a revised assumption on how many parklets are anticipated to remain, which directly affects ongoing street sweeping costs per parklet, as shown below.

1. PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Expansion of outdoor dining, through the addition of parklets and sidewalk dining areas, is an effective strategy to not only support local businesses, but to activate the public realm by creating pedestrian-oriented spaces worth walking to and spending time in. The City of San Luis Obispo (SLO) supports expansion of outdoor dining opportunities through public/private partnerships as a way to invigorate local economic vitality and to improve the walkability and enjoyability of our community through creative urban design. This manual serves as a guide to help local businesses and community members understand the goals, operating policies, design standards, and permitting process for establishing an outdoor dining installation in the public right-of-way within the City of San Luis Obispo.
1.1.BACKGROUND
The City of San Luis Obispo is pleased to support the expanded use of City streets and sidewalks to support local businesses and expand opportunities for outdoor dining and activation of the pedestrian environment. Expansion of outdoor dining opportunities through high-quality, creative urban design supports several goals of the City’s General Plan, Active Transportation Plan, and Downtown Concept Plan to facilitate a vibrant, inviting pedestrian realm.
The City’s outdoor dining program began in 2000 with creation of a permit program for temporary sidewalk dining within the public right-of-way and was expanded in 2020 through a pilot program known as “Open SLO”, which allowed for no-cost permitting for installation of temporary parklets and more flexible use of sidewalk dining as a rapid response to the economic and public health impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Following positive feedback from local businesses and community members, many elements of the Open SLO pilot program, including allowance of parklets, will be carried forward on a permanent basis with this updated SLO Outdoor Dining Program.

1.3.TYPES OF OUTDOOR DINING
A. PARKLETS: Expansion of pedestrian
space within the public right-of-way through
temporary extension of the sidewalk into the
adjacent on-street parking lane.
B. SIDEWALK DINING: Installation of seating within the public sidewalk, which can be categorized into two types:
• SIDEWALK CAFÉ: A sidewalk dining
installation along the frontage of a
restaurant, bakery or other eatery with
installation of physical elements, such
as barrier/railings to delineate the
outdoor dining area. Sidewalk Cafés
often include more permanent
elements, such as covered awnings,
planter boxes, heaters, and full-service
dining.
• TABLES AND CHAIRS: The
temporary placement of chairs and
tables on the sidewalk, generally in
conjunction with a restaurant or other
food service. No physical barrier is
installed, tables and chairs may not be
left outdoors outside of operating
hours.

SLO Outdoor Dining Guide | 10
3. DESIGN GUIDELINES
3.1. PARKLET DESIGN STANDARDS
FOOTPRINT
Parklets can be proposed within on-street parking spaces and should generally fit within the frontage of the applicant.
Length: The length of a standard parallel parking space is 18-22 feet. Parklet length, as determined from this measurement, cannot extend beyond the parking space, including its required safety features.
Width: The width of a standard parallel parking space is 6 to 8 feet. The parklet may extend to the sidewalk only if a minimum 6-foot unobstructed walkway for pedestrians is maintained on the sidewalk.
SIDE BUFFER ELEMENTS
Wheel Stops: To ensure visibility and to protect the parklet from parking cars, the applicant will be required to maintain a minimum 3-foot (4-foot preferred) buffer on the ends of the parklet facing the direction of traffic, with wheel stops installed on each end (see City Engineering Standard 2260 for wheel stop installation details). Buffer distance and wheel stop setback may be increased to accommodate bike rack or planter box installations. Wheel stops, planter boxes or other furnishings within side buffers must remain clear of gutter flow line.
Heavy Barriers: Parklets downstream of an intersection, or where otherwise required per the Public Works Director, must have a heavy barrier for additional protection, such as water-filled barricades (must be decorated or covered with a facade) or larger weighted planter boxes. Unless otherwise approved by the Public Works Director, barriers shall measure a minimum of 6 feet in length and 32 inches in height and able to resist at least 500 pounds of force.
Flex Posts: To enhance visibility of the parklet, vertical flex posts with retroreflective strips shall be installed at the outside corners of the buffers, typically placed 6 inches out from the corners of the wheel stops (See Figure 1 for reference). Additional retroreflective markers may be required for the parklet ends to the satisfaction of the City Public Works Director.
Intersection, Driveway, Pedestrian Ramp, Fire Hydrant Setbacks: Parklets shall not be located within 10 feet of driveways or pedestrian ramps, or within 15 feet of an intersection.
Parklets shall not be located within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, unless otherwise approved by the City Fire Marshal.
ROADWAY BUFFER ELEMENTS
SLO Outdoor Dining Guide | 11
Parklets must maintain a minimum 1-foot buffer along the roadway between the adjacent auto lane or bike lane. A minimum 10-foot-wide auto lane or 5-foot-wide bike lane must be retained adjacent to the parklet.
PARKLET BASE, DECKING SURFACE & DRAINAGE REQUIREMENTS
PARKLET BASE/FOUNDATION
The parklet base should be a freestanding structure that rests on the street surface and/or curb/sidewalk. The frame shall not be permanently attached to the street or curb/sidewalk, but removable anchoring systems may be approved to the satisfaction of the Public Works Director.
Parklet operator is responsible for repair of any damaged pavement, curb or sidewalk at no cost to the City upon ultimate removal of parklet.
DRAINAGE
The parklet must be designed to allow drainage to flow along the gutter without obstructions. The design must provide 3-inch high by 18-inch-wide clear gutter space along the entire length of the parklet adjacent to the curb to allow for water flow.
PARKLET SURFACE/DECKING SYSTEM
The height of the parklet surface shall be flush with the adjacent sidewalk, with a vertical differential of no more than ¼-inch between the sidewalk and parklet surface and horizontal gaps between the curb and parklet surface (and within the parklet seating area) not exceeding ½-inch (no gaps capable of passing a ½-inch sphere). If these minimum vertical and horizontal differentials cannot be retained along the full extent of the parklet due to uneven curb heights/alignments, threshold plates, planter boxes or other furnishings must be placed along the parklet edge to eliminate trip hazards.
Parklet surface slopes shall comply with applicable City and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards for sidewalk grades, maintaining cross slopes (perpendicular to street) of less than 2 percent and running slopes (parallel to the street) of no more than 5 percent. Pedestrian ramps and/or vertical steps within parklet area are generally not supported but may be considered on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the City Building and Safety Division.
Modular parklet decking systems, such as the tile decking systems by Elevated Deck Systems, Bison, or equivalent are preferred, as these designs can be removed efficiently and without special tools to access the area under the parklet for cleaning and maintenance. Other types of parklet decking systems will be considered but should be designed for convenient access and removal.
The parklet structure and deck may not cover any utility access points or stormwater drain inlets, unless otherwise approved by the Public Works Director.
All decking surfaces must be non-slip and weather resilient.
SLO Outdoor Dining Guide | 12
VERTICAL ELEMENTS
PARKLET PERIMETER/BARRIER SYSTEM
Parklets must have a continuous vertical barrier along each end, and along the exterior side adjacent to the vehicle travel lane. Unless otherwise approved by the City, this barrier must be between 36 and 42 inches in height (as measured from the parklet surface) and shall be constructed using metal or wooden structures. The barrier system must be able to withstand a minimum of a 250-pound horizontal force and should have no gaps or openings larger than 4 inches to minimize potential for persons exiting the parklet into the street.
If the parklet is located at a corner or adjacent to a driveway or pedestrian ramp, vertical elements will need to be designed to avoid impacting clear sight lines for drivers and pedestrians to the satisfaction of the Public Works Director.
VERTICAL SUPPORTS & ROOFING
Any proposal for vertical elements needs to be submitted with plans provided by a qualified architect or engineer including structural calculations and will require review and approval by the City building and Safety Division, Transportation Division and Fire Department. Any roofing elements need to be placed at least 7 feet above the sidewalk surface and should not impede visibility of nearby traffic control devices or adjacent building signage.
LIGHTING
Café lights and/or other decorative lighting installations are highly encouraged. Solar-powered options are highly encouraged to minimize need for overhead electrical wiring. Hard-wired outdoor lighting installations must be connected to an outdoor-rated GFCI outlet, with overhead wires anchored at least 7 feet above the sidewalk grade. No electrical cords may be placed along the sidewalk surface. All lighting installations with individual lamps/bulbs exceeding 10 watts must be compliant with the City’s Night Sky Ordinance.
Higher voltage electrical elements, such as outdoor electric heating systems, may require additional design review and electrical permit from the City Building and Safety Division.
PLANTER BOXES AND PLANTINGS
Landscaping elements are encouraged and may be required as condition of permit issuance. A sample planting palette is provided in Appendix B.
BIKE PARKING AND OTHER OUTER ELEMENTS
Parklets should endeavor to include bike parking where feasible. Parklets occupying two or more parking spaces will be required to include bicycle parking on the down side of the flow of traffic unless approved by the Public Works Director. The cost of the space for bike parking is not included in the use fee as this is a community-wide benefit. Bike corrals which are accessible
SLO Outdoor Dining Guide | 13
from the street are the preferred type of installation in order to reduce sidewalk conflicts. Proposed bike rack installations shall comply with the City’s Active Transportation Plan Design Guidelines.
3.2.SIDEWALK DINING DESIGN STANDARDS
SIDEWALK CAFE
Sidewalk Café includes the installation of seating, tables, umbrellas, and complete food services within the sidewalk frontage of a food service business. • Permanent barriers must be in place when alcohol is being served, unless otherwise approved by the Community Development Director and consistent with Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) approvals.
• Path of travel for pedestrians (six feet of clear space) shall be maintained free and clear of any existing obstacles including any street furniture, trees, and utilities. • Where umbrellas or awnings are used, a vertical clearance of at least seven feet must be maintained. The placement, color, style, and types of outdoor furniture and barriers shall be consistent with and complement the design and appearance of the affected building to the satisfaction of the Community Development Department.
TABLES AND CHAIRS
Tables and Chairs installations include only the placement of tables and chairs on the sidewalk frontage of a food service business where no alcoholic beverages are being served. • No fixed barrier may be installed on the sidewalk.
• Tables and Chairs are allowed within the frontage of an existing or proposed restaurant, coffee shop, bakery, or other eatery.
• Path of travel for pedestrians (six feet of clear space) shall be maintained free and clear of any existing obstacles including any street furniture and utilities.
3.3.OTHER DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
SIGNS/DISPLAYS
Applications for formal signage for branding/advertising must go through a separate application for sign permit through the Community Development Department.
OUTDOOR HEATERS
Portable gas (LPH) heating appliances may be used within parklets and outdoor seating areas but cannot be located beneath or closer than 10 feet to canopies/tents, and 5 feet to umbrellas or similar combustible materials per California Fire Code. Propane tanks may be stored on site,
SLO Outdoor Dining Guide | 14
but must be in an approved enclosed area of the installation to the satisfaction of the Building and Safety Department and City Fire Department.
UMBRELLAS AND OTHER TEMPORARY COVERINGS
Where umbrellas or awnings are used, a vertical clearance of at least seven feet above the sidewalk must be maintained. The placement, color, style, and types of outdoor furniture and barriers shall be consistent with and complement the design and appearance of the affected building to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director. Tents or “EZ Up” type structures are generally not considered for approval.

O 1717
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo as follows:
SECTION 1. Purpose. It is the purpose and intent of this Ordinance to update the Clean Energy Program for New Buildings to protect public health and safety by requiring all new buildings to be all-electric.
SECTION 2. Action. The Ordinance is hereby adopted by the City of San Luis Obispo to be codified under Chapter 8.10 as specified in Exhibit A. The Council hereby adopts the recitals herein as separate and additional findings of fact in support of adoption of the Ordinance.
SECTION 3. Severability. If any word, phrase, sentence, part, section, subsection or other portion of this amendment or any application thereof to any person or circumstance is declared void, unconstitutional, or invalid for any reason, then such word, phrase, sentence, part, section, subsection, or other portion, or the prescribed application thereof, shall be severable, and the remaining provisions of this amendment, and all applications thereof, not having been declared void, unconstitutional or invalid, shall remain in full force and effect. The City of San Luis Obispo hereby declares that it would have passed this Ordinance and each section, subsection sentence, clause, and phrase of this amendment, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsection, sentences, clauses, or phrases is declared invalid or unconstitutional.
SECTION 4. Findings. The City Council finds that each of the changes or modifications to measures referred to herein are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological, or topographical conditions in the area encompassed by the boundaries of the City of San Luis Obispo, and the City Council adopts the following findings in support of local necessity for the changes or modifications:
1. Scientific evidence has established that natural gas combustion, extraction, and transportation produce significant greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global warming and climate change.
2. As a city located on the California Central Coast, San Luis Obispo is vulnerable to the effects of sea level rise and resultant flooding within the San Luis Creek watershed, and human activities releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere cause increases in worldwide average temperature, which contribute to melting of glaciers and thermal expansion of ocean water – resulting in rising sea levels.
3. San Luis Obispo is already experiencing the repercussions of excessive greenhouse gas emissions as rising sea levels and severe weather events threaten the City’s nearby shoreline and infrastructure and cause significant erosion leading to infrastructure failures including the Mud Creek slide resulting in closure of Highway 1 for repairs, and economic impacts to surrounding communities.
Ordinance No. 1717 (2022 Series) Page 4
O 1717
4. San Luis Obispo is situated along a wildland-urban interface and has been identified as a Community at Risk from wildfire and is extremely vulnerable to wildfires and firestorms, and human activities releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere cause increases in worldwide average temperature, drought conditions, vegetative fuel, and length of fire seasons—contributing to the likelihood and consequences of fire.
5. The City of San Luis Obispo is situated at the base of a watershed of the Santa Lucia Mountains and flooding of San Luis, Chorro, Stenner, Old Garden, and Brizzolara Creeks results in conditions rendering fire department vehicular traffic unduly burdensome or impossible, as witnessed in major floods that occurred in 1952, 1961, 1969, 1973, 1978, 1982, and 1995. Furthermore, flood conditions described above create the potential for overcoming the ability of the fire department to aid or assist in fire control, evacuations, rescues, and other emergency task demands inherent in such situations. The resulting overburdening of fire department personnel may cause a substantial or total lack of protection against fire for the buildings and structures located in the City of San Luis Obispo. The afore-described conditions support the imposition of fire protection requirements greater than those set forth in the California State Building Standards Code and, in particular, support the imposition of new development requirements for purpose of reducing the City’s contributions to Greenhouse Gas Emissions resulting in a warming climate and related severe weather events.
6. The aforementioned flood and rain events result in conditions wherein stormwater can inundate the wastewater treatment system as witnessed in major floods that occurred in 1952, 1961, 1969, 1973, 1978, 1982, and 1995.
Furthermore, rain events and flood conditions described above create a condition referred to as Inflow and Infiltration (I/I) that allow rain and flood waters to flow and/or seep into the wastewater system and overcome the ability of the wastewater collection system and Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) to convey and treat sewage. The resulting overburdening of the wastewater system can result in threats to public health, public and private property and water quality and violations and fines from the State of California, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or others. To the extent that climate change has the potential to make these conditions worse, requirements to achieve reduced greenhouse gas emissions are necessary.
7. The City of San Luis Obispo is situated near three major faults each capable of generating earthquakes with a magnitude of 7.5. These are the San Andreas to the east of the City, the Nacimiento-Rinconada that crosses Hwy 101 north of the City then parallels the City to the east, and the Hosgri to the West. Other faults of importance are the Huasna and West Huasna to the Southeast of the City, the San Simeon to the Northwest, and the Edna and Edna Extended faults which enter the southern areas of the City. In as much as these faults are included as major California earthquake faults, which are subject to becoming active at any time, the City of San Luis Obispo is particularly vulnerable to devastation should such an earthquake occur. The potential effects include isolating the City of San Luis Obispo from the North and South due to the
Ordinance No. 1717 (2022 Series) Page 5
O 1717
potential for collapsing of freeway overpasses or a slide on both the Cuesta and Ontario Grades and the potential for horizontal or vertical movement of the Edna fault rendering surface travel across the southern extremities of the city unduly burdensome or impossible. Additional potential situations inherent in such an occurrence include loss of the City's two main water sources (the Salinas and Whale Rock reservoirs), broken natural-gas mains causing structure and other fires, leakage of hazardous materials, the need for rescues from collapsed structures, and the demand for first aid and other medical attention to large numbers of people. As a result, the City is pursuing a policy to discourage additional natural gas extensions and the related, expanded risk of gas leaks and explosions during seismic events for the protection of human life and the preservation of property in the event of such an occurrence.
8. That seasonal climatic conditions during the late summer and fall create numerous serious difficulties in the control and protection against fire situations in the City of San Luis Obispo. The hot, dry weather in combination with Santa Lucia (offshore) winds frequently results in wildland fires in the brush-covered slopes on the Santa Lucia Mountains, Morros, and the Irish Hills areas of the City of San Luis Obispo. The aforementioned areas surround the City. When a fire occurs in said areas, such as occurred in 1985 when the Los Pilitas fire burned six days and entered the City and damaged many structures, the entirety of local fire department personnel is required to control, monitor, fight and protect against such fire situations in an effort to protect life and preserve property and watershed land. The same climatic conditions may result in the concurrent occurrence of one or more fires in the more populated areas of the City without adequate fire department personnel to protect against and control such a situation. Therefore, the above-described findings support the imposition of measures reduce greenhouse gas emissions from carbon, and support reducing the amount of natural gas distributed and used throughout the City.
9. As described in the City of San Luis Obispo Climate Action Plan for Community Recovery (2020), rapid actions are required to limit global warming and the resulting environmental threat posed by climate change, including a policy that calls for no net new emissions from new buildings. Actions that limit methane, which is the primary component of natural gas, can slow the rate of climate change and mitigate the related impacts.
10.Natural gas combustion and gas appliances emit a wide range of air pollutants, such as carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx, including nitrogen dioxide (NO2)), particulate matter (PM), and formaldehyde, which according to a UCLA Study, have been linked to various acute and chronic health effects, and additionally exceed levels set by national and California-based ambient air quality standards. Therefore, the above-described findings support the imposition of measures to eliminate natural gas infrastructure in new buildings and development.
11.All-electric new buildings benefit the health, safety, and welfare, of San Luis Obispo and its residents.

O 1717
SECTION 5. Environmental Determination. This Ordinance was assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines, and is found to be exempt from CEQA under the general rule, CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), because it can be seen with certainty that the provisions contained herein would not have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Further, this ordinance is also exempt from CEQA under the categorical exemptions in Sections 15307 and 15308 of the CEQA Guidelines in that the proposed Ordinance would institute regulatory requirements intended to protect the environment and natural resources, as the Ordinance will require the installation of less natural gas infrastructure and reduce the amount GHG gas emissions in the City that are produced form buildings, and reduce the risk of catastrophic infrastructure failure, including explosions and fires caused by breaks and leaks in the natural gas distribution system as a result of upset conditions due to deferred maintenance or following an earthquake.
SECTION 6. Violations. Violation of the requirements of this Ordinance shall be considered an infraction of the City of San Luis Obispo Municipal Code, punishable by all the sanctions prescribed in Chapters 1.12 and 1.24.
SECTION 7. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall be effective as of January 1, 2023.

O 1718
SECTION 1. Findings. Based upon all the evidence, the City Council makes the following findings:
1. The proposed amendments to Title 17 will not significantly alter the character of the City or cause significant health, safety, or welfare concerns, since the amendment is consistent with the General Plan and directly implement City goals and policies to facilitate All-Electric buildings and the Clean Energy Choice for New Buildings Program.
2. The proposed amendments to Title 17 are consistent with existing zoning practices by establishing reasonable regulations to authorize the Director of Community Development to act on certain applications on an administrative basis due to the minor nature of a proposed improvement, use of land, or allowed deviation from development standards.
3. The proposed amendment to the text of the Zoning Ordinance is consistent with the purpose of the Zoning Ordinance to promote the growth of the City in an orderly manner and to promote and protect the public health, safety, and general welfare in that the proposed allowances to development standards are minor in nature and will and otherwise maintain the existing policies, standards and regulations of the Zoning Ordinance.
4. Periodic amendments, updates, and corrections of the Municipal Code are consistent with General Plan Policy to maintain regulations which are effective in implementing policies consistent with the General Plan.
5. The amendment is temporary and includes a sunset date of December 31, 2025.
SECTION 2. Environmental Determination. The proposed code amendment has been assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State CEQA Guidelines, and the environmental regulations of the City. Specifically, the proposed amendment has been determined to be exempt from further environmental review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) because the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment, and it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. The ordinance additionally is categorically exempt from environmental review under the Class 3 exemptions for (1) construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures, and (2) installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures (§ 15303, CEQA Guidelines.) Specifically, the amendment to zoning regulations; 1) does not lead to physical improvements beyond those typically exempt; and 2) is not specifically listed as a categorical or statutory exemption but exhibits characteristics similar to one or more specific exemptions; and 3) provides allowances to specific development standards that are minor in nature in the area immediately surrounding and attached to approved structures and existing improvements and is not anticipated to have a significant effect on the environment.

SUBJECT: REVIEW OF A MILLS ACT HISTORICAL PROPERTY CONTRACT FOR 211 CHORRO STREET (MULLER-NOGGLE HOUSE AND GARAGE)
RECOMMENDATION
As recommended by the Cultural Heritage Committee, adopt a Resolution entitled, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo, California, approving a Historic Property Preservation Agreement between the City and the Owners of the MullerNoggle House and Garage at 211 Chorro Street (Application No. HIST-0174-2022).”
DISCUSSION
The owner of the Muller-Noggle House and
Garage at 211 Chorro Street (Figure 1)
submitted an application to enter into a Mills
Act historical property contract with the City of
San Luis Obispo (City). The property was
designated as a “Master List Resource” by the
City Council in January 2022 (Resolution
No. 11298) as an example of the Minimal
Traditional architectural style with an
association to modernist architect Edla Muir,
under the eligibility criteria for architecture and
integrity set forth in the City’s Historic
Preservation Ordinance.
The Mills Act Program
The Mills Act Program enables California cities to enter contracts with owners of historical property to provide tax relief in exchange for an agreement to actively participate in the restoration and maintenance of historical resources. A Mills Act contract is effective for an initial 10-year period, and then is automatically extended annually for an additional year. After the initial term, either the City or the owner may, by written notice, decide not to renew the contract.
Figure 1: Muller-Noggle House
Item 6e
During the effective term of the contract, the property owner must improve or rehabilitate the property, maintain the property consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards, and provide visibility of the historical resource from the public right-of-way.
The Conservation and Open Space Element (COSE) of the General Plan describes the City’s goals and policies for the protection of cultural resources. It is the City’s policy that significant historic resources be rehabilitated and preserved (COSE § 3.3). Participation in the Mills Act Program is one of the means by which the City encourages the maintenance and restoration of historic properties (COSE § 3.6.2). A property must be on the City’s Master List of Historic Resources in order to be enrolled in the program.
Previous Council or Advisory Body Action
On January 11, 2022, the City Council reviewed and approved a request from the property owner to designate the property as a Master List Historic Resource, based on the property’s significance as an example of the Minimal Traditional architectural style and association to modernist architect, Edla Muir. The Cultural Heritage Committee reviewed this application for participation in the Mills Act Historic Preservation Program, and the terms of the draft preservation contract, at a public hearing on May 24, 2022, and, by a vote of 5-0-2 (two Members absent), recommended that the Council approve the contract.
Policy Context
The recommended action on this item is supported by historical preservation policies set out in Section 3.0 of the COSE of the City’s General Plan, particularly Program 3.6.2, regarding participation in financial incentive programs to encourage maintenance and restoration of historic properties, and with the purpose of encouraging private stewardship of historic buildings through incentives, as provided by Section 14.01.010 (B)(3) of the City’s Historic Preservation Ordinance.
Public Engagement
Public notice of this hearing has been provided to owners and occupants of property surrounding the subject site, published in The New Times, and posted on the City’s website. The agendas for this meeting have been posted at City Hall and online, consistent with adopted notification procedures for development projects.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Entering into a “Mills Act Contract” with the owners of historical property is not subject to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project as defined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 (Definitions – Project).
Implementation of the Mills Act is a government fiscal activity which does not involve commitment to any specific project resulting in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment (CEQA Guidelines § 15378(b)(4)).

After the Mills Act contract is recorded, the County Assessor values the property by an income capitalization method, following guidelines provided by the State Board of Equalization. Because of the timing and the method of valuing the restricted property, it is difficult to accurately estimate the tax savings and resulting fiscal impacts to the City under a particular historical property contract. However, the Office of Historic Preservation (California Department of Parks and Recreation) estimates that property owners participating in the program may realize property tax savings of between 40 and 60 percent each year for newly improved or purchased older properties. This will reduce the City’s property tax revenue accordingly.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Decline to enter into a Mills Act Historical Property Contract with the property owner. This alternative is not recommended. The contract provides a tax relief incentive that is a tool for achieving the City’s goals for historical preservation.
2. Continue consideration of the request to a future date for additional information or discussion

SUBJECT: TRANSIT SERVICE AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY AND CAL POLY
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager to enter into a Transit Service Agreement with California State Polytechnic University to provide Transit Service for Fiscal Years 2022-23 and 2023-24.
POLICY CONTEXT
Transit services, and by extension this Transit Service Agreement (TSA) with California State Polytechnic University (Cal Poly), supports the Major City Goal of Climate Action, Open Space and Sustainable Transportation. Additionally, transit is a key modal objective in the General Plan, Active Transportation Plan, and included in Pillar four (4) Connected Community of the Climate Action Plan.
DISCUSSION
Background
Since 1985, Cal Poly and the City of San Luis Obispo have maintained a TSA to allow Cal Poly to access the City's transit services (SLO Transit). Through this Agreement, Cal Poly pays an annual service fee to the City in exchange for a zero-fare program that allow students, staff, and faculty to ride SLO Transit at no charge to the rider. A valid Cal Poly Identification Card must be presented to participate in a zero-fare ride.
The Agreement encourages students, faculty, and staff to make use of alternative transportation as a means of travel. Historically, the University has compensated the City for a portion of the costs for these trips from its Parking & Forfeitures Fund without any direct contribution from students, staff, and faculty. In addition, mitigation measures from the Cal Poly Master Plan require Cal Poly to pay a fair share towards the City’s transit service.
The current TSA, first entered into in 2011, has been extended multiple times.
Extensions were provided to the TSA initially because of complexities regarding costs of a new Transit Operations and Maintenance contract that was executed with Frist Transit, the City’s contractor that operates SLO Transit, in 2016, and the implementation of a new Short Range Transit Plan that was developed in 2017.
Item 6f
Both the new Transit Operations and Maintenance contract and the implementation of the Short-Range Transit Plan impacted cost and ridership and due to these unknowns, it was better for both the City and Cal Poly to extend the existing TSA rather than develop a new long-term TSA.
In March 2020, the State of California issued a Stay-at-Home order, which heavily impacted SLO Transit ridership, reducing use by 80%. While ridership demand is increasing again, there is a national shortage of transit drivers further reducing SLO Transit’s ability to provide full pre-pandemic service levels. In August 2021, SLO Transit therefore introduced a modified academic service that addresses demand to the maximum extent practical while still providing reliable transit service.
There have been numerous issues since the expiration of the original TSA with Cal Poly that have complicated development and agreement of a long-term TSA. Issues included changing contracts with service providers, changing service levels with the Short-Range Transit Plan, the COVID-19 pandemic, and driver shortages as mentioned above.
Recommended TSA
Included as Attachment A is the recommended TSA with Cal Poly that will provide for continued no fare service for students, faculty, and staff for Cal Poly. The TSA length is two years and will provide the City a fixed funding amount of $600,000 for fiscal year 2022-23 and $750,000 in fiscal year 2023-24. All terms and conditions of the TSA are consistent with previous TSAs with Cal Poly.
Future TSA
While the proposed TSA with Cal Poly does not achieve the City’s long-term objectives of providing an equitable cost recovery for transit services provided, it is considered a” bridge agreement” until the City and Cal Poly are able to come to resolution as to how to best memorialize for the long-term transit services operational and capital costs.
Additionally, this provides the City with secured funds to assist with service delivery as SLO Transit ramps up operations to provide full Academic Schedule service.
Cal Poly has assigned a new negotiations point of contact for the future agreement and staff believes this is a positive step. Staff’s objectives for a future TSA include a contract term from 5 to 10 years, cost recovery per trip to match the City’s general ridership rate, and an agreement that provides funding for capital improvements to the transit system.
Public Engagement
No public engagement is necessary as this is considered an administrative item.
CONCURRENCE
Cal Poly Administration has reviewed the attached contract and has executed the agreement on behalf of Cal Poly.
Item 6f
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to the recommended action in this report, because the action does not constitute a "Project" under CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15378.

There is a positive fiscal impact by entering into a TSA with Cal Poly for Transit Services as shown in the table above. The City is mandated to maintain a 20% farebox ratio to remain eligible for state funding. Without Cal Poly’s contribution, the farebox ratio would be below the mandated threshold and the City would be ineligible for state funding.
ALTERNATIVES
Deny Transit Services Agreement. City Council may choose to deny entering in the TSA. Staff does not recommend this alternative as this alternative could reduce ridership revenues. The continuation of this TSA assists the continued partnership of this mutually beneficial program.

SUBJECT: ITEM 6g – AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE CHENG PARK REVITALIZATION PROJECT, SPECIFICATION NO. 91385-10
Staff received the following questions, regarding the Cheng Park Revitalization Project.
The questions are listed below with staff’s response in italics:
1) Question: Why is the San Luis Greenway item and funding being mentioned in this staff report?
On page packet page 115, there is the following footnote:
“
1The Capital Reserve Fund’s current balance is $2,901,708 to support this request of $200,000. Concurrent with this request is a request to support the Cerro San Luis Greenway project with a funding amount of $1,000,000 from the Capital Reserve Fund account. If Council approves both this project’s funding request and the Cerro San Luis Greenway project funding request the Capital Reserve Fund will have a balance of $1,701,708 to support future needs.” Additionally, in the Project Account Summary Table the Cerro San Luis Greenway Capital Reserve Fund Request is mentioned.
The footnote and Fiscal Analysis section of the report are intended to show that staff have reviewed all concurrent requests for funding from the Capital Reserve Fund Balance and there is sufficient funding to support both projects. 2) Question: Should the balance listed in the Resolution for the Capital Projects Reserve Fund balance be listed as $1.7 million?
The balance of $1.9 million listed in the Resolution is the approximate balance of the CIP Reserve Account prior to the allocation of funding from the CIP Reserve to this project’s account. This $1.9 million balance assumes that Council approved the $1 million in funding requested from the CIP Reserve the for the Cerro San Luis Greenway project. Both this project and the Cerro San Luis Greenway project are on Council’s July 19, 2022, agenda and could likely be approved simultaneously. The resolution will be updated as needed based upon Council action on both projects.

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE CHENG PARK REVITALIZATION PROJECT, SPECIFICATION NO. 91385-10
RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve the project plans and special provisions for the Cheng Park Revitalization, Specification 91385-10; and
2. Authorize staff to advertise for bids; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to award the Construction Contract for the bid total if the lowest responsible bid is within the Engineer’s Estimate of $400,000; and
4. Authorize the City Engineer to approve Contract Change Orders up to the available project budget; and
5. Authorize an appropriation up to $200,000 in Capital Reserve Funds to support completion of the project; and
6. Authorize the Finance Director to return unspent Capital Reserve funding to the Capital Reserve Fund balance after project completion; and
7. Adopt a Resolution entitled, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo, California, authorizing use of Capital Projects Reserve Fund to support Cheng Park Revitalization, Specification Number 91385-10”.
POLICY CONTEXT
With the Fiscal Year 2021-23 Financial Plan, Council established Major City Goals for Economic Recovery, Resiliency, and Fiscal Sustainability as well as Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. A revitalized Cheng Park accomplishes these goals by creating an inviting downtown park with restored elements that honor Chinese culture as conceived by the park’s original designer, Alice Loh. This park will provide a unique visitor experience and contribute to downtown vitality through enhancements to arts and culture.
On May 17, 2022, Council approved a Purchasing Policy Update which requires Council approval for Public Projects with a value of $200,000 or more. The City’s Fund Balance and Reserve Policy was adopted in June 2021 and includes guidelines related to the Capital Projects Reserve Fund, as follows:
Item 6g
The City will maintain a committed reserve of 20% of capital improvement plan budget from the Local Revenue Measure for the purposes of offsetting unanticipated cost increases, unforeseen conditions, and urgent unanticipated projects to provide continued investment in infrastructure maintenance and enhancement. Use and allocations of funds from the Capital Projects Reserve Fund will be made to Capital Projects including Major Facility Replacement upon Council approval as necessary during any fiscal year.
The recommended use of the Reserve to supplement the Cheng Park Revitalization project is consistent with this policy.
DISCUSSION
City owned parks require ongoing maintenance and improvements to provide users a safe and enjoyable experience. The Cheng Park Revitalization project is a project within the Parks Major Maintenance - Annual Asset Maintenance Account that provides ongoing funding for the maintenance and replacement of park infrastructure including Cheng Park.
Cheng Park is a small contemplative garden with a pond, shade structure, sculptures, and a few benches located at the corner of Marsh Street and Santa Rosa Street. It is in need of significant maintenance to restore and preserve the park. The park was constructed in 2005 to celebrate Chinese Heritage through architectural and landscape features and it has many features that need to be repaired or upgraded. The current project includes rehabilitating the existing water pond, installing a new pump station, minor electrical improvements at the Pagoda, as well landscaping and irrigation replacement.
Staff is requesting that the Council approve the final project plans (Attachment A), specifications (Attachment B), and authorize staff to advertise the project for bids.
Previous Council or Advisory Body Action
This Project was identified in the 2021-23 Financial Plan that was approved by Council.
Additionally, the Fund Balance and Reserve Policy was adopted by Council on June 1, 2021.
Public Engagement
Public engagement for the Cheng Park Revitalization project was completed during the initial identification of this project in preparing the 2021-23 Financial Plan. Additionally, City staff worked with the original designer of the park, Alice Loh, to ensure the revitalization is consistent with the original purpose of the park to honor Chinese culture.
CONCURRENCE
The Public Works, Community Development, and Parks and Recreation departments concur with the recommendations of this report.
Item 6g
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Cheng Park Revitalization project is exempt from environmental review under Section 15301 Class 1 (existing facilities) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines because the project proposes to maintain existing facilities. The project is consistent with the applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable City Regulations. A Notice of Exemption will be filed with the Community Development Department.
FISCAL IMPACT
Budgeted: Yes Budget Year: 2022-23
Funding Identified: Yes
Fiscal Analysis:
Due to increases in materials and labor construction costs, the City’s current estimate for this Cheng Park project is higher than previously budgeted. $300,000 was identified in the 2021-23 Financial Plan for this project. Staff recommends allocating an additional $200,000 from the Capital Reserve Fund to complete the project (Attachment C). The budget will be amended when the contract is awarded, and bid costs are known.
