COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

FROM: Interim City Manager Alex Posada
BY: Chief of Police Marc Schneider
SUBJECT: Adoption of a Resolution Authorizing an Application for the California Office of Safety Selective Traffic Enforcement Program Grant
Description:
The City Council will consider authorizing the submission of an application for the 2025 Grant Program Cycle of the California Office of Traffic Safety Selective Traffic Enforcement Program Grant.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the submission of an application for the 2025 Grant Program Cycle of the California Office of Traffic Safety Selective Traffic Enforcement Program Grant.
BACKGROUND:
The California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) is a partnership effort between the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the State of California. Each year OTS develops a highway safety plan identifying the key highway safety problems in the state and the most effective measures to address them.
The Santa Maria Police Department (SMPD) has received Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) grants from OTS since 2009. The awarded grant funding has been used for staff overtime working targeted traffic operations and for the purchase of equipment.
The SMPD is currently operating in a one-year OTS Grant that was awarded in October 2023. This grant has paid for overtime for specialized Driving Under the Influence ( DUI) enforcement, DUI/driver license checkpoints, repeat DUI offender stakeouts, traffic safety presentations, and bike/pedestrian operations.
DISCUSSION:
The SMPD would like to submit a grant application for the Fiscal Year 2025 Grant Cycle to continue the previously implemented STEP and DUI Checkpoint programs. If awarded, the new OTS grant will run from October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2025, and allow the SMPD to continue to supplement its enforcement efforts in critical traffic areas of the City and target traffic factors that lead to fatal and injury collisions. Funding will include 2 overtime and fringe benefits, training, and travel for officers, as well as funding for the purchase of DUI checkpoint supplies.
Fiscal Considerations
Staff will determine a dollar amount to request based on estimated operation and supply costs once approved to apply. OTS will make the final determination of funds awarded.
There are no matching funds required for this grant application.
Impact to the Community
With this funding, enforcement directed at making Santa Maria’s roads safer will have a positive impact on the community. This grant will provide funding for t raffic officers to continue their educational and enforcement efforts to combat the traffic issues within the City.

Environmental Notice: The Project qualifies for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15301 – Existing facilities (operation, repair, maintenance, leasing, etc.) of the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines because the scope of work to be conducted is an existing public facility with negligible expansion of the existing uses.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution awarding a bid to Main Line Engineering, in the amount of $1,209,295, for the construction of the McClelland Waterline Replacement Project, Bid No. 2023-16.
BACKGROUND:
Under the direction of the City of Santa Maria Utilities Department, the project was designed by GTA.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: City Council
FROM: Interim City Manager Alex Posada
BY: Director of Public Works Brett Fulgoni
SUBJECT: Adoption of a Resolution Approving the Just BOBA Five -Year Payment Plan for Growth Mitigation Impact Fees
Description:
The City Council will consider approving a five -year payment plan for Traffic Growth Mitigation fees. The total amount of Traffic Growth Mitigation Impact Fees to be deferred is $22,212.34. This will allow Just BOBA to operate as a business while paying the required fees over time.
Environmental Notice: The activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental review is required.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving the deferral of Traffic Growth Mitigation Impact Fees to be paid over a five -year period for the Just BOBA development, located at 1 954 S outh Broadway.
BACKGROUND:
The developer Judith Mendoza has applied for a building permit with the City of Santa Maria, Building Permit number B23 -0552 to remodel an existing 1,348 square foot commercial retail space and construct a high -turnover sit-down restaurant in a PD/C -2 (Planned Development General Commercial) zone.
The California Legislature enacted AB1600 (the Mitigation Fee Act of 1987) to provide a method for communities to mitigate the impacts of growth on the local infrastructure. The City Council adopted the first Capital Improvement Plan and Ordinances for the City’s Growth Mitigation Fee program in July 1993.
The City’s Growth Mitigation Fee Program is codified in Municipal Code Chapter 8-15 and imposes the development impact fees on development projects. Development means any building or other alteration of or change in use. Changes in use may include, but not be limited to, conversion of general office to medical office, or conversion of retail space to restaurant/laundry/entertainment. The proposed development to remodel an existing 2 commercial retail space into a high-turnover sit-down restaurant is within the criteria to be considered for the City’s Growth Mitigation Fee Program.
Impact fees are reflective of a development’s share of the cost of providing the improvements necessary to meet the service demands that the development creates.
Municipal Code Section 8-15.06(g) stipulates that the City Council may consider allowing qualifying commercial developments the ability to pay Growth Mitigation fees as outlined in the current fee schedule over a period of time. The maximum amount of time for payback shall be five years. The payments shall be made yearly, and interest shall be paid. Interest calculations shall be based on the average annual interest rate for the Local Agency Investment Fund. Qualifying companies who wish to pursue this option shall sign an agreement in a form approved by the City Attorney and shall provide financial security guaranteeing payment.
DISCUSSION:
An agreement for the deferral of growth mitigation fees has been prepared by the City Attorney’s Office and a Faithful Performance Bond ensuring financial security has been secured.
Per Section 8 -15.06 of the City of Santa Maria Municipal Code, Just BOBA seeks the consideration of the City Council for the deferred payment of Growth Mitigation Impact Fees over the next five years for Building Permit B23-0552.
Alternative
The City Council may require the payment of growth mitigation fees over a shorter payback term, less than five years. This will require higher annual payments to be payable to the City.
Fiscal Considerations
The deferred payment of mitigation fees will result in delayed fees to the City . Although deferred, the City will obtain interest for the delay in payment.
The total amount of Traffic Growth Mitigation Impact Fees to be deferred is $22,212.34.
These payments are to be paid annually in five equal installments, plus interest based on the average annual interest rate for the Local Agency Investment Fund, on or before the dates set forth below:
1. January 16th, 2024
2. January 16th, 2025
3. January 16th, 2026
4. January 16th, 2027

There should be no impacts outside of fiscal deferral. The funds are necessary for the buildout of the Traffic projects in the Capital Improvement Program, but the fund balance 3 is adequate for the planned projects and the deferral will not create delays for planned projects.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: City Council
FROM: Interim City Manager Alex Posada
BY: Director of Public Works Brett Fulgoni
SUBJECT: Adoption of a Resolution Establishing No Parking Zones on Bluebird Street
Description:
The City Council will consider approving the establishment of No Parking Zones on Bluebird Street to improve safety for drivers, as well as reduce vandalism and littering associated with vehicles that park on Bluebird Street
Environmental Notice: Environmental Notice: The activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental review is required.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution establishing No Parking Zones on the northerly and southerly way of Bluebird Street , beginning at the northeast intersection of School Street and Bluebird Street to the northerly boundary of the Driftwood Gardens Neighborhood and east of the centerline of School Street continuing east , then continuing south to the northerly boundary of the Driftwood Gardens Neighborhood.
BACKGROUND:
Multiple residents from the Driftwood Gardens Neighborhood requested th e establishment of a No Parking Zones on Bluebird Street between the northerly boundary of the Driftwood Gardens Neighborhood and School Street. The request is in response to an increase in vandalism and littering associated with vehicles that park on Blue bird Street. Additionally, the request is also due to safety issues that arise when oversized vehicles park on Bluebird Street and narrow the available travel lane, creating a dangerous situation for drivers.
DISCUSSION:
Per City Council Resolution No. 2 061 and CAM 63-15, a Traffic Committee was formed to “be responsible for the review, approval or denial, and recommendations to City Council on all matters and requests relating to traffic circulation and safety within the public right -of-way”. The Traffic Committee has reviewed the request for No Parking 2 Zones and recommends their establishment. The City Council has the authority to locate, establish, or eliminate No Parking Zones within the City.
The No Parking Zones recommended to be established is described as follows:
1. Bluebird Street, along the northerly right of way, beginning at the northeast intersection of School Street and Bluebird Street and extending 450 feet east then continuing south for 300 feet to the northerly boundary of the Driftwood Gardens Neighborhood.
2. Bluebird Street, along the southerly right of way, beginning at a point 60 feet east of the centerline of School Street continuing east for a length of 400 feet then continuing south for 260 feet to the northerly boundary of the Driftwood Gardens Neighborhood.
Alternative
The alternative to the recommended action would be to not approve the establishment of the No Parking Zones.
Fiscal Considerations
Establishing the No Parking Zone will require labor and materials to erect poles and mount signs. The posts and signs will need long-term maintenance as the signs fade, vehicular collisions, or vandalism occurs. Staff estimates it will cost the City $5,000 to install the signs. Account number 068-011-047-52-01 Alternative Transportation Enhancement will be used to cover these costs.
Impact to the Community
There are no anticipated impacts to the nearby commercial/industrial businesses as they have adequate onsite parking. The observed vehicles will no longer be allowed to park long-term.

SUBJECT: Adoption of a Resolution for the Annexation and Assessment of the Maxco Packaging Warehouse Project into the Southwest Landscape Maintenance District
Description:
The City Council will c onsider approving the resolution annexing and assessing Maxco Packaging Warehouse Projects in to the Southwest Landscape Maintenance District
Environmental Notice: The activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental review is required.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Adopt a Resolution for the annexation and assessment for the Maxco Packaging Warehouse projects that are within the respective Southwest Landscape Maintenance Districts.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Santa Maria has conditioned Maxco Packaging Warehouse, PD2021-0007; for the ongoing maintenance of landscape facilities served by the Southwest Landscape Maintenance Districts under the provision of the “Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972” for the purpose of levying and collecting assessments for perpetual landscape maintenance.
DISCUSSION:
At the City Council meeting of January 16th, 2024, the City Council adopted a Resolution initiating the proceedings to establish and levy the 202 4-25 Landscape Mainten ance District Assessments for the ongoing maintenance of landscape facilities served by the Southwest Landscape Maintenance District.
This item directs staff to add these assessments for Maxco Packaging Warehouse to the Southwest Landscape Maintenance Dis tricts on the County of Santa Barbara Property Tax Roll.
2 Alternative(s)
Evaluate the option of not annexing Maxco Packaging Warehouse projects into the Southwest Landscape Maintenance Districts, recognizing that this decision would entail an increased financial responsibility for landscaping expenses on the part of the General Fund.
Fiscal Considerations
The annual costs of landscape maintenance are assessed against the benefited properties within said Districts. These assessments are reflective of the cost associated with the upkeep of public landscaping within these Districts.
Impact to the Community
These annexations and assessments provide for the maintenance of landscaping in perpetuity. The assessments generate a funding base to help finance most of the landscape maintenance costs within each of the respective districts named in this report, which in turn allows the City of Santa Maria to provide the highest level of service to residents.

2 Under SB 1383, the City is required to develop an Edible Food Recovery (EFR) Program to aid in the statewide goal of recovering 20 p ercent of the edible food that is currently disposed of by 2025. To meet the mandated statewide goal, the law requires each jurisdiction to establish and monitor a robust food recovery program, to strengthen relationships between commercial edible food gen erators (CEFGs) and food recovery organizations (FROs) within local communities. It also requires certain CEFGs to send FROs the maximum amount of edible food they would otherwise dispose of.

Date to begin donating excess food: January 1, 2024
SB 1383 placed the CEFGs into two tiers to allow businesses and jurisdictions time to expand or build new food recovery infrastructure - and capacity - to donate foods that are harder to safely store and distribute.
As part of the City’s EFR Program, the City was required to identify all local FROs and CEFGs. The Utilities Department conducted meetings with FRO s located within Santa Maria city limits. The objective of each meeting was to determine how to increase EFR capacity and to identify opportunities to improve EFR efforts.
Based on those meetings, it was determined that four of the six identified FROs required resources and equipment to increase capacity and improve EFR efforts. The types of equipment requested by FROs included: commercial refrigerators and freezers; a vacuum sealer for preserving food; food transportation supplies such as insulated bags, thermal blankets, utility carts, and electric pallet jacks; digital floor scales; and food thermometers.
DISCUSSION:
In May 2022, the California Department of Resourc es Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) awarded the City a Local Assistance Grant of $152,451 to assist with SB 1383 program implementation. Eligible costs include reimbursing FROs for eligible EFR equipment and indirect costs such as administrative costs d irectly associated with the grant. The Utilities Department proposes to use the grant funding to reimburse equipment purchases by FROs to help increase both capacity and recovery efforts.
To use the grant funding in this manner, CalRecycle requires the Ci ty and each FRO to enter into a service agreement for the equipment purchases . Staff and CalRecycle will work to develop a service agreement that meets this requirement. FROs will be required 3 to provide proof of purchase and confirmation of equipment installation. Upon verification by the Utilities Department, the City will reimburse FROs for the equipment costs.
As part of the EFR program, the Utilities Department will also conduct annual audits in conjunction with the annual FRO inspections, as required by SB 1383, to verify that the equipment is being used and maintained in accordance with the service agreement.
Eligibility requirements to request a service agreement are:
1. FROs must be located within the City limits,
2. FROs must have sufficient space and a reasonable need for additional equipment, and
3. FROs must be in compliance with the submission of annual reports to the City as required under SB 1383.
Currently, the following four FROs meet the above eligibility requirements to receive funding reimbursement under the proposed program:
1. Catholic Charities
2. Central Coast Rescue Mission
3. Good Samaritan
4. Salvation Army
Fiscal Considerations
This program will be funded through the Local Assistance Grant awarded by CalRecycle to the City in May 2022. It is estimated that approximately $14 1,000 will be used to reimburse FROs for EFR equipmen t, leaving approximately $11,451 for City staff labor costs related to managing the reimbursements.
The City will not incur any maintenance, installation, or utility costs related to the reimbursement of the EFR equipment.
Alternative(s)
The City Council may direct staff not to utilize the grant funding in this manner and instead identify other uses for the funding. Staff recommends partnering with local agencies to meet the needs of the community by using the funding as proposed.
Impact to the City
Reimbursing FROs for the cost of EFR equipment will directly increase the City’s EFR capacity by assisting FROs with expanding their infrastructure and reducing the disposal of edible food. Additionally, improving the City’s EFR program will aid the City in maintaining compliance with SB 1383 requirements through the use of grant funds.
Impact to the Community
Increasing the EFR capacity of local FROs will enable more edible food to be recovered and provided to residents in need in Santa Maria.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: City Council
FROM: Interim City Manager Alex Posada
BY: Interim Assistant City Manager / Director of Community Development Chuen Wu
SUBJECT: Adoption of a Resolution to Amend the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan; Introduction of an Ordinance to Amend the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan; Adoption of a Resolution Approving Planned Development Permit 2022-0017
Description:
The City Council will consider approving: 1) an Amendment to the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan (SPZ2022 -0001) to amend the uses of the Planned Development/Light Industrial/Public Facilities - Airport (PD/LI/PF-A) district, and to modify the Foxenwood Lane roadway design; and 2) a Pl anned Development Permit (PD2022- 0017) for a 101,450 -square-foot Mini -Warehouse Facility on a five-acre site within a PD/M-1/PF-A (Planned Development/Light Manufacturing/Public Facilities) Zone District of the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan.
Environmental Notice: The Project was adequately covered in a previously adopted Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) certified for the approved 2021 Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan amendment pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines Section 15162.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Adopt a Resolution for General Plan consistency to amend the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan to add “Heavy Retail Business” as a permitted land use in the Planned Devel opment/Light Industrial/Public Facilities - Airport (PD/LI/PF-A) zone district, and to modify the Foxenwood Lane roadway design; and
2. Introduce an Ordinance for zoning consistency to amend the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan to add “Heavy Re tail Business” as a permitted land use in the Planned Development/Light Industrial/Public Facilities -Airport (PD/LI/PF-A) zone district, and to modify the Foxenwood Lane Roadway design; and
3. Adopt a resolution approving a Planned Development Permit (PD2022-0017) for a 101,450-square-foot Mini-Warehouse Facility on a five acre site within a PD/M - 1/PF-A (Planned Development/Light Manufacturing/Public Facilities) Zone District of the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan. 2 BACKGROUND:
The project site is located within the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan area which includes the south and southeast areas of the Airport District lands bounded on the north by Skyway Drive with Orcutt Expressway/Highway 135 as the eastern bounda ry.
Union Valley Parkway is to the south, with the western boundary approximately ½ mile to the west of Blosser Road (Attachment A – Vicinity Map).
The Specific Plan proposes approximately 740-acres of the total 2,598-acre airport district lands for business park development consisting of light industrial, research, manufacturing, and commercial land uses with nearly 70 percent of the planning area to be reserved in passive and active open space . The Specific Plan also includes its own Airport-oriented zoning designations, each with development standards and lists of permitted, prohibited, and conditional uses unique from those found in Santa Maria Municipal Code Title 12 (Zoning Code).
In 2021, the City Council approved an amendment to a 28-acre area of the Specific Plan located east of Union Valley Parkway and north of Highway 135. This amendment created new zoning categories, including the Planned Development/Light Industrial/Public Facilities - Airport (PD/M-1/PF-A) zone, which was exclusively applied to an 8.4-acre area on the southern portion of the parcel west of Foxenwood Lane. This 8.4 acre-area is the subject site for this current proposed Specific Plan Amendment and Planned Development Permit application . The intent of this zone is to provide opportunities to develop compatible light indust rial and community facili ty uses identified as either permitted or conditional uses within this zone.
Planning Commission:
The Planning Commission r eceived a presentation on this project at the Study Session held on October 19, 2023. At their December 6, 2023, public hearing, t he Planning Commission unanimously recommended the Council by resolution, approve the proposed Specific Plan Amendment and Planned Development Permit applications.
DISCUSSION:
Specific Plan Additional Land Use – Heavy Retail Business To allow for additional permitted types of retail uses, the applicant is requesting to add “Heavy Retail Business” as a permitted use in the 8.4-acre area of the Specific Plan zoned PD/M-1/PF-A. The proposed definition for the Specific Plan’s Heavy Retail Business use is as follows:
The retail sale of large and/or bulk goods such as lumber, building equipment and supplies, landscape plants and materials, or other related home-improvement and garden materials and other similarly themed sundries. Ancillary uses to the primary “Heavy Ret ail Business” may include such uses as consumer level home - improvement oriented tool rental, sales, and servicing, small ‘consumer’ tractor and equipment sales, or other uses consistent with and ancillary to the main Heavy Retail 3 Business. Ancillary screened outdoor public sales yards may be incorporated for marketing of items consistent with the Heavy Retail Business.
The proposed amendment also specifies that the Specific Plan’s “Heavy Retail Business” land uses differ from other more intensive wholesale and production facility uses due to their target market being the homeowner and not the professional contractor or the trades.
The full PD/M-1/PF-A zone text with proposed modif ications shown in red underline is provided as Attachment B. This type of use would be comparable in intensity to many of the permitted uses in the current text of the Specific Plan, such as ‘Equipment rental and/or service’, or ‘Recreational vehicle and trailer sales and storage’. The use will be less intense than some of the currently permitted uses such as ‘ Warehousing and wholesale distributors’, ‘Manufacturing, processing, and packaging of pharmaceuticals and drugs ’, ‘Printing, publishing, and allied industries’, or ‘ water and wastewater treatment plants, substations and other public service facilities of a similar nature’.
The Planned Development Permit application for the mini -warehouse facility discussed later in this report proposes to develop approximately five acres of the 8.4-acre PD/M-1/PF- A zone, and if approved, approximately three acres would remain for future uses in the zone. Those future projects would be reviewed for consistency with the Specific Plan’s PD/M-1/PF-A zone designation, and the Specific Plan’s development policies and design standards, as well as the environmental mitigations from the certified SEIR. Development of this site would also require the review and approval of grading and public improvement plans, storm water control plans, building permits, and other related City permits and approvals.
Revised Foxenwood Lane Street Section
The application also includes a request to amend the Specific Plan to replace the approved Foxenwood Lane street section between Foster Road and the Union Valley Parkway with a modified design. Section drawings of the existing industrial standard street section and proposed revised design are provided as Attachment C.
The roadway will continue to include north and south single travel l anes, on street bike lanes, and off-street multi-purpose trails. However, the current design’s 102-foot right-of- way width will be reduced to an 82-foot-wide right-of-way through modified dimensions for the various road elements.
The reduction is achiev ed by reducing the width of the travel lane s and on-street bike lanes and replacing the median with a narrower central turning lane. Behind the curb, each side of the right-of-way will have a 10-foot-wide landscaped parkway, and an 8-foot-wide Multi-use-II path. A 10-foot wide Public Utility and Street tree planting easement is located behind the path on each side of the street, outside the right of way. Future buildings are required to be set back a minimum of 30 feet from the property line, which is aligned with the back edge of the multi-use path.
The design of the new section has been extensively reviewed by Public Works Engineering staff and the Fire Department, who both support the proposed design as meeting all 4 necessary standards. The modified section is proposed to better serve future development on both sides of Foxenwood Lane, particularly the future retail and office development on the east, by including multimodal features that accommodate both vehicles, bicyclists, and pedestrians. Additionally, the narrower paved right -of way section will reduce the City’s long-term maintenance costs compared to the original street design.
Planned Development Permit
The applicant is proposing an approximately 101,450-square-foot mini-warehouse facility located on approximately five acres within the PD/M-1/PF-A zone. Twelve buildings will incorporate 704 storage units and a 1,450 square-foot office at the entry to the facility. The units will range from 25-square-feet to 360-square-feet, with the majority being 100 to 200- square-feet in size.
The facility would be accessed from Foxenwood Lane, with five prospective customer parking spaces and a ‘turn -around” provided before the front entry gate. Other than this entry area, the site will be enclosed with seven-foot-tall decorative wrought iron fencing and the perimeter buildings. The Fire Department has reviewed and supports the interior drive aisles design, which incorporates a 29.5-foot wide outer aisle to accommodate fire apparatus, allowing adequate fire access to all units.
The proposed design conforms to the Specific Plan design requirements by using overlapping building forms varying parapet heights and incorporating tower-like elements all to create visual interest on all public facing sides of t he structure by avoiding long expanses of blank uninterrupted walls.
The building exteriors will consist of architectural metal panels with galvalume metal trim, and anodized aluminum color storefront and window trim. The office and entry area will incorporate awning features and a masonry wainscot at the building base. Upper -level windows at both the entry and the tower element at the project’s southeast corner provide views of areas designed to appear as hallways and unit doors, but which are actually inaccessible faux architectural elements to add interest and articulation. The tallest building heights are 25-feet, with the lowest portions at 12-feet height.
The applicant provides more than the minimum 15 percent landscape area required by the Specific Plan. Proposed landscaping would be located at the Foxenwood Lane entrance, along the Union Valley Parkway frontage, and along the east perimeter of the facility to help reduce views of the storage buildings and serve as a buffer to the future development on the remaining 3-acres of PD/M-1/PF-A zoned property. The facility will be open 7 days a week, with office hours Monday through Saturday, 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, and Sunday 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. The office will include daily facility management and offer moving supplies such as boxes, moving blankets and tarps, tape, tiedowns, labels, and dollies. Gated access will be operational for clients between 6:00 am – 9:00 pm every day.
Rather than incorporate a residential caretaker unit which is discouraged on Airport property by the Federal Aviation Administration, this facility will rely on security technology for off -hour monitoring, including a security code for the gate, security sensors at 5 perimeter access points , exterior li ghting, and complete exterior video monitoring by employees in the office and a remote monitoring firm afterhours.
In addition to the five customer parking spaces required adjacent to the office, the Municipal Code requires one parking space for every t en storage cubicles, provided as loading zones dispersed throughout the complex . With 704 storage units proposed, 71 parking spaces are required. Through the Planned Development Permit, reduced parking requirements may be approved on a case -by-case basis to allow flexibility for development in order to achieve superior design and community benefit.
The applicant is requesting a reduction citing trip generation rates for mini warehouse development from the Institute of Traffic Engineer s. Based on that data and the size of this facility , as few as 11 parking spaces would be sufficient to serve the anticipated number of customers during the busiest times of day. The project proposes to provide 47 spaces (or one space for every 15 units ) for the benefit and convenience of their future customers. The Planning Commission and staff support this proposed reduction, as it is similar to reductions approved for other recent mini-warehouse projects in the City, where there have been no reports of parking problems. The Planned Development Permit is provided as Attachment D of this report, with the concept plans provided as Attachment E.
Alternative(s)
The Council may act on each of the two Specific Plan Amendment components and the Planned Development Permit independently, as neither is dependent on approval of the other.
Environmental Review
A Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) had been certified for the 2021 Specific Plan amendment, as a supplement to the Programmatic EIR (State Clearinghouse [SCH] No. 2005051172) certified by the City in June 2007 for the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan. Considering the adequacy of the previously adopted SEIR, staff has concluded that in accordance with the provisions of CEQA section 15162 the project was adequately covered in the previously adopted Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 202007005) and no further environmental review is necessary.
Fiscal Considerations
If approved, the additional land use proposed through the specific plan amen dment has the potential to lead to a bulk retail development with increased sales tax revenue for the City. The proposed street section amendment would narrow (thereby reduce) the improvements, reducing maintenance costs to the City. The Planned Development Permit approval would allow the development of the mini -warehouse facility, and upon its completion, the collection of taxes.
Impact to the Community
6 The Specific Plan Amendments and Planned Development Permit will facilitate the first development under the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan , in a location that will serve both the southern Santa Maria and Orcutt community areas.

That the project meets the vision, intent, and r equirements of the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan and the General Plan because the use is one of the uses anticipated for the PD/M-1/PF-A zone of the Specific Plan and designed to conform to the Specific Plan policies and standards;
B. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and topogr aphy to accommodate the use, and all yards, spaces, walls and fences, parking, loading and landscaping are adequate to properly adapt such use with the land and uses in the vicinity, as the project site is approximately five acres of the total 8.4 acres of the PD/M-1/PF-A designated property, leaving approximately 3.4 acres of site for future development;
C. That the site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways adequate in width and pavement type to carry the quantity and kind of traffic generated by the proposed use, because the project site is within the area of the adopted Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan, and accesses Foxenwood Lane which will provide for the integration into the infrastructure, circulation, and service network of the City to ensure this project site and the surrounding area have adequate traffic circulation;
D. That the proposed use will have no adverse effect upon abutting properties, as the project site and adjacent sites are vacant parcels, and the five-acre project site is adequately sized to accommodate the proposed use . The proposed landscaping

and site improvements are sited and designed to adequately adapt the project to the surrounding land uses, and the project is designed to conform with the policies and development standards of the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan;
E. That the establishment, maintenance and/or conducting of the use for which the planned development review is sought will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, or welfare of persons residing or wo rking in the neighborhood of such use and will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the public welfare, injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood, because the project is a low intensity mini-warehouse use designed to be compatible with existing and future adjacent land uses through conformance with the policies and development standards of the Specific Plan . The proposed use is not inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development, because the mini-warehouse use is a use identified for the PD/M-1/PF-A zone of the project site and is designed to conform with the Specific Plan development and design standards;
F. That the conditions stated in the decision are necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare;
G. The proposed modification to reduce the amount of required parking for the storage units FROM 1 space for every 10 storage units ( 71 parking spaces required) TO 1 space for every 15 storage units (47 parking spaces required) is justified by the analysis using the Institute of Traffic Engineers trip generation rates for the mini-storage use, and the project is otherwise consistent with the Gene ral Plan, Municipal Code and Specific Plan;
H. The project includes superior design elements , including varying wall planes and roof heights, tower like elements, decorative fencing, stone wainscot, perimeter landscape, that together mitigate or compensate for any potential impact of the proposed modification(s) on the surrounding area;
I. The proposed modification(s) are essential to the des ign of the project as the reduced parking requirement reduces the amount of paved area, providing a better balance of building to paved site;
J. The proposed modification(s) have been minimized to the maximum extent possible consistent with Subsections (a) through (c) of Section 12 -35.203 of the Municipal Code, as the requested ratio of one parking space for every 15 storage units is not nearly as low of a parking ratio that could be argued by the results of the parking analysis, but will still provide adequate parking for storage unit customers; and

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA
MARIA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
PERMIT FOR A MINI-WAREHOUSE FACILITY WITHIN A PD/M-
1/PF-A (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT/LIGHT
MANUFACTURING/PUBLIC FACILITIES) ZONE DISTRICT OF
THE SANTA MARIA AIRPORT BUSINESS PARK SPECIFIC PLAN,
LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF ORCUTT
EXPRESSWAY (HIGHWAY 135) AND UNION VALLEY PARKWAY
(PD2022-0017).
WHEREAS, the applicant, G3, LLC , initiated a Planned Development Permit application for a mini -warehouse development within the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan’s (the “Specific Plan”) PD/LI/PF-A zone, herein refe rred to as the Project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Maria held a duly noticed public meeting on December 6, 2023, to review the Planned Development Permit; and
WHEREAS, on December 6, 2023, with a 3-0-2-0 vote, the Planning Commission made its recommendation by motion that the City Council approve the proposed Planned Development permit as conditioned; and
WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was held on the Planned Development Permit by the Santa Maria City Council on January 16, 2024; and WHEREAS, the Santa Maria City Council made no modification of the proposed Planned Development Permit which had been previously considered by the Planning Commission; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Santa Maria has reviewed the mini- warehouse Planned Development Permit project in accordance with the application submitted and hereby makes the required findings in accordance with Section 12-35.203 of the Municipal Code, including the following:
A. That the project meets the vision, intent, and requirements of the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan and the General Plan because the use is one of the uses anticipated for the PD/M -1/PF-A zone of the Specific Plan and designed to conform to the Specific Plan policies and standards;
B. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and topography to accommodate the use, and all yards, spaces, walls and fences, parking, loading and landscaping are adequate to properly adapt such use with the land and uses in the vicinity, as the project site is approximately five acres of the total 8.4 acres of the PD/M-1/PF-A designated property, leaving approximately 3.4 acres of site for future development;
C. That the site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways adequate in width and pavement type to carry the quantity and kind of traffic generated by the proposed use, because the project site is within the area of the adopted Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan, and accesses Foxenwood Lane which will provide for the integration into the infrastructure, circulation, and service network of the City to ensure this project site and the surrounding area have adequate traffic circulation;
D. That the proposed use will have no adverse effect upon abutting properties, as the project site and adjacent sites are vacant parcels, and the five -acre project site is adequately sized to accommodate the proposed use. The proposed landscaping and site improvements are sited and designed to adequately adapt th e project to the surrounding land uses, and the project is designed to conform with the policies and development standards of the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan;
E. That the establishment, maintenance and/or conducting of the use for which t he planned development review is sought will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, or welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such use and will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the public welfare, injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood, because the project is a low intensity mini-warehouse use designed to be compatible with existing and future adjacent land uses through conformance with the policies and development standards of the Specific Plan. The proposed use is not inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood or contrary to its orderly development, because the mini-warehouse use is a use identified for the PD/M-1/PF-A zone of the project site and is designed to conform with the Specific Plan development and design standards;
F. That the conditions stated in the decision are necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare;
G. The proposed modification to reduce the amount of required parking for the storage units FROM 1 space for every 10 storage units (71 parking spaces required) TO 1 space for every 15 storage units (47 parking spaces required) is justified by the analysis using the Institute of Traffic Engineers trip generation rates for the mini-storage use, and the project is otherwise consistent with the General Plan, Municipal Code and Specific Plan;
H. The project includes superior design elements, including varying wall planes and roof heights, tower like elements, decorative fencing, stone wainscot, perimeter landscape, that together mitigate or compensate for any potential impact of the proposed modification(s) on the surrounding area;
I. The proposed modification(s) are essential to the design of the project as the reduced parking requirement reduces the amount of paved area, providing a better balance of building to paved site;
J. The proposed modification(s) have been minimized to the maximum extent possible consistent with Subsections (a) through (c) of Section 12 -35.203 of the Municipal Code, as the requested ratio of one parking space for every 15 storage units is not nearly as low of a parking ratio that could be argued by the results of the parking analysis, but wil l still provide adequate parking for storage unit customers; and
K. A Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) had been certified for the 2021 Specific Plan amendment, as a supplement to the Programmatic EIR (State Clearinghouse [SCH] No. 2005051172) certified by the City in June 2007 for the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan. Considering the adequacy of the previously adopted SEIR, staff has concluded that in accordance with the provisions of CEQA section 15162:
There are no substantial changes which have occurred in respect to the circumstances under which the project will be undertaken. There is no new information regarding potential significant effects that have come to light in the review of the proposed project; and The project does not involve any new significant environmental effects not otherwise addressed in the previously adopted SEIR and mitigation monitoring program.
Therefore, the project was adequately covered in the previously adopted Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 202007005) and no further environmental review is necessary.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Santa Maria, California, as follows:
1. The above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.
2. The City Council hereby approves the Planned Development Permit (PD2022-0017) for a 101,450-square-foot-Mini-Wharehouse Facility on a five acre site within a PD/M-1/PF-A (Planned Development/Light Manufacturing/Public Facilities) Zone District of the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan, as set forth on Attachment D of the Council Agenda Report dated January 16, 2024, incorporated herein by reference.
3. The Assistant City Clerk is hereby authorized to make m inor changes herein to address clerical errors, so long as substantial conformance of the intent of this document is maintained. In doing so, the Assistant City Clerk shall consult with the City Manager and City Attorney concerning any changes deemed necessary.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Santa Maria, California, held this 16th day of January 2024.

WHEREAS, Section 12-19.05. of the Santa Maria Municipal Code requires the City Council to grant all approvals of Specific P lans in the City and that each Specific P lan shall be adopted by a Resolution declaring General Pla n consistency, and by an Ordinance declaring zoning consistency; and
WHEREAS, a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) had been certified for the 2021 Specific Plan amendment, as a supplement to the Programmatic EIR (State Clearinghouse [SCH] No. 2005051172) certified by the City in June 2007 for the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan; and WHEREAS, Considering the adequacy of the previously adopted SEIR, staff has concluded that in accordance with the provisions of CEQA section 15162:

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Maria , at the regularly scheduled public hearing on December 6, 2023 , with a 3 -0-2-0 vote, made its recommendation in writing that the City Council:
1) amend the text of the Santa Maria Business Park Specific Plan’s PD/LI/PF-A zone by the addition of a definition of “Heavy Retail Business”, and the 2 addition of the “Heavy Retail Business” use to the zone’s list of permitted uses, as depicted on Attachment B of the Council Agenda Report dated January 16, 2024, incorporated herein by reference; and
2) amend the Specific Plan’s Foxenwood Lane street sec tion design (Specific Plan Exhibit 39a) as depicted on Attachment C of the Council Agenda Report dated January 16, 2024, incorporated herein by reference; and
WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was held on this amendment to the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan by the City Council on January 16, 2024; and
WHEREAS, the City Council made no substantial modification of the proposed amendment to the Santa Maria Airport Business Park Specific Plan which had not been previously considered by the Planning Commission; and
WHEREAS, the City Council considered all written and oral testimony; and WHEREAS, the City Council considered and relied on the Planning Commission’s recommendation in making its decision on the amendment to the Santa Maria Air port Business Park Specific Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Santa Maria, California, as follows:
1. The above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.
2. The City Council finds that:
a) The proposed project is consistent with applicable goals, objectives, policies, and programs of the General Plan.
The PD/LI/PF-A zone exists only within the Specific Plan and only on the approximately 8.4 acres at the northwest corner of Orcutt Expressway (Highway 135) and Union
Valley Parkway. The proposed project modifies the text of the Specific Plan’s PD/LI/PF-A zone by the addition of a definition of “Heavy Retail Business”, and the addition of the “Heavy Retail Business” use to the zone’s list of
permitted uses.
b) The proposed project modifies the Specific Plan’s
Foxenwood Lane street section to better accommodate
the expected multi -modal circulation demands generated by the development of adjacent properties under the
Specific Plan’s existing land use designations.
c) The modifications are to better serve and attract
community-serving businesses that complement the
surrounding airport and residential land uses and which will enhance the economic vitality of the Airport and City. 3 d) The proposed project would not adversely affect the public health, safety, and welfare, or result in an illogical land use pattern because the “Heavy Retail Business” is a use that similar to the other uses permitted in the PD/LI/PF-A zone a designat ion which is only found on approximately 8.4 acres and only within the Specific Plan, the zone includes the Planned Development overlay necessitating
discretionary review of future applications for the

surrounding airport and residential land uses and which will enhance the economic vitality of the Airport and City. 3 d) The proposed project would not adversely affect the public health, safety, and welfare, or result in an illogical land use pattern because the “Heavy Retail Business” is a use that similar to the other uses permitted in the PD/LI/PF-A zone a designation which is only f ound on approximately 8.4 acres and only within the Specific Plan, the zone includes the Planned Development overlay necessitating
discretionary review of future applications for the
development of the site. The Specific Plan will continue to provide for a dequate screening, buffering, and transition between land uses, and the adopted Mitigation Monitoring Program provides mitigation to reduce potential impacts to adjacent residential neighborhoods to a less than
significant level.

redesign, will provide for the integration of all future development into the infrastructure, circulation, and
service network of the City to ensure this project site and the surrounding area have adequate traffic circulation; therefore, any future project is afforded the appropriate services and facilities in that all infrastructure is adequately planned for and required as a condition of development, or is currently available to serve the project site.
f) The proposed project supports the general welfare in that the proposed additional use and Foxenwood Lane
redesign integrates into the Specific Plan ’s established mix of commercial, light industrial, open space, and public facility land uses and zone designations to meet the future demands of the community.
g) The proposed project is compatible with the purpose and intent of the adopted Specific Plan and will not adversely affect the public health, safety, and welfare, resulting in an illogical land use pattern, or create internal inconsistencies within the Specific Plan; and
h) The proposed project will promote the growth of the City in an orderly manner and will promote and protect the public health, safety, comfort, and general welfar e consistent with the purpose of Title 12 of the City of Santa Maria Municipal Code.

FOR THE COUNCIL MEETING OF JANUARY 16, 2024
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
TO: City Council
FROM: Interim City Manager Alex Posada
BY: Interim Assistant City Manager / Director of Community Development Chuen Wu
SUBJECT: Adoption of a Resolution Approving a Sales and Disposition Agreement between the City of Santa Maria and Burt Fugate/Burt E.
Fugate Trust for the Cook Street Mixed-Use Apartment Project
Description:
The City Council will consider adopting a Resolution approving a Sales and Disposition Agreement between the City of Santa Maria and Brett Fugate / Burt E. Fugate Trust , which includes the sale of surplus land located at the northeast corner of Cook and McClelland Streets.
Environmental Notice: The adoption of the Sales and Disposition Agreement is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) no environmental review is required.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving a Sales and Disposition Agreement (SDA) between the City of Santa Maria and Burt Fugate / Burt E. Fugate Trust , which includes the sale of surplus land located at the northeast corner of Cook and McClelland Streets, an approximately 11,000 square-foot portion of Assessor’s Parcel Number 125-320-009.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council has continually identified the revitalization and redevelopment of Santa Maria’s downtown area (Downtown) as a goal and priority. The City has adopted plans to establish a visio n for the downtown area and developed regulations and guidelines to facilitate its redevelopment, including an update to the Downtown Specific Plan in 2015 and the adoption of the Downtown Streetscape Plan in 2019.
In accordance with the Surplus Land s Act of California (Government Code Section 54220), on October 18, 2022, the City Council declared an 11,000 -square-foot strip of city-owned land located on the north side of Cook Street, adjacent to the parking structure, as surplus land (City Council Resolution 2022-116). During the City Council deliberations, it was noted that declaring this portion of City property surplus land would facilitate the future development of the Cook Street Mixed-Use Apartment project, which in turn would 2 further the Downtown Specific Plan revitalization goals by adding to the downtown pedestrian activity and vibrancy.
DISCUSSION:
The Cook Street Apartments Mixed-Use Downtown Permit (DT2022-0017) was approved by the Planning Commission on November 15, 2023. The Downtown Permit entitles the applicant to construct a 52,500-square-foot, six-story mixed-use building consisting of 104 residential units, and approximately 2,100-square-feet of ground floor commercial space.
The approved Downtown Permit project plans for the Cook Street project are provided as Attachment A to this report. The Downtown Permit was approved contingent upon entering into a n SDA with the City for the completed transfer of the 11,000 squ are-foot surplus City property, and for the use of the City’s parking structure to meet the project’s required parking.
City executive staff has been in regular discussions with Burt Fugate to discuss the terms and conditions of the SDA. Through these negotiations, and with the encouragement of the City, the applicant incorporated the ground floor commercial floor space . The Downtown permit as approved by the Planning Commission also incorporates interior and exterior amenities for the future tenants and the public transit improvements adjacent to the project on Cook Street into the.
The SDA (Attachment B) will serve as the agreement for the transfer and development of the City-owned parcel, and for the use of the City owned parking garage to satisfy the number of required parking spaces for the Cook Street Mixed-use Apartment project. The SDA also cites the incentive the City has agreed to provide to the applicant, which consists of waiving all building permit fees by 50%.
Alternative
The City Cou ncil can choose to not accept the SDA as drafted and provide further direction to staff.
Fiscal Considerations
The City would be providing significant financial incentives as part of the SDA. These incentives are intended to assist the development of this downtown project on underutilized parcels that would facilitate the City's vision of a vibrant downtown area that includes new housing, retail commercial, restaurants, and other tax -generating and employment producing opportunities. The implementation of the Fugate project would have far-reaching, long-term economic benefits through the creation of a new downtown residential use bringing added residents to the Downtown core.
Impact to the Community
The approval of the SDA is part of an implementation plan for the revitalization of the Downtown. The completion of this project would add more housing with a ground floor retail component in the Downtown. It would also continue the momentum of redevelopment in the Downtown, including on privately-owned land.

A. DEVELOPER is the owner of the real property located at the northeast corner of the intersection of East Cook Street and South McClelland St reet in Santa Maria, California commonly known as Santa Barbara County Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 125-320-018 and 125-320-019 (collectively the “DEVELOPER’S Parcels”) more particularly described on the attached Exhibit A.
B. The CITY is the owner of the real property located immediately north of the DEVELOPER’s Parcels commonly known as Santa Barbara County Assessor’s Parcel Number 125 -320-009 (the “ CITY Parcel”) more particularly described on the attached Exhibit B.
C. Included in the CITY Parcel is an area consisting of approximately ten thousand eight hundred ninety (10,890) square feet in a variable width strip located along the southerly boundary of the CITY Parcel , subject to various access, encroachment and storm drain easements , lega lly described on the attached Exhibit B -1 and depicted on the attached Exhibit B-2 (the “Landscape Area.”)
D. Processing the approval of development projects is inherently uncertain and costly; sometimes resulting in a waste of resources, escalation in devel opment costs, discouragement of investment and a reduced commitment to comprehensive planning, ultimately hindering the maximum effective utilization of resources at the least economic cost to the public.
E. The DEVELOPER proposes to acquire the Landscape Ar ea and then to develop both the DEVELOPER’s Parcels and the Landscape Area as a multi -story mixed use apartment and commercial / retail project pursuant to pending Downtown Specific Plan Permit Application DT2022-0017 (together with any subsequent applications to be filed, the “Project Applications”) on file with the CITY and as more particularly described in the attached Exhibit C (the “Project”).
F. Included in the Project will be benefits accruing to the CITY and the public in general in the form of redeve lopment and use of the Landscape Area for an open courtyard for Project residents and patrons of the Project businesses , downtown revitalization, improvements to mass transit, and the like, all as more particularly detailed in the Project Application and the Conditions of Approval as defined in Section 4.c below.
2 G. Subject to this Agreement’s terms and conditions, the CITY is prepared to convey the Landscape Area to the DEVELOPER in exchange for the for the improvements to be made to the Landscape Area and the public benefits to be derived therefrom, as all specified herein.
H. In connection with the proposed Project, DEVELOPER has submitted the Project Applications and will apply to the CITY for all other permit approvals necessary to construct the Project (collectively the “Entitlements”).
I. In accordance with Government Code Section 65864 et seq., the C ITY enacted Santa Maria Municipal Code Chapter 12-51, setting forth the required process for reviewing, processing and approving development agreements, and DEVELOPER and CITY can accomplish their mutual goals by entering into this Agreement pursuant to Government Code §65864 et seq., and Santa Maria Municipal Code Chapter 12-51.
J. The CITY seeks , through this Agreement to promote the most efficient use of resources; to derive the benefits to the CITY and the public in general described in this Agreement, and to establish clear and precise guidance for DEVELOPER and any potential future buyers, developers or users of the Project as established under the Entitlements; so that the DEVELOPER and any potential future buyers, builders or occupants of the Project will have a clear and complete understanding of the Entitlement responsibilities that are applicable to, and necessary for, building out the Project.
K. Assurances to the DEVELOPER that DEVELOPER may proceed with the Project in accordance with specified regulations will strengthen the public planning process, encourage private participation in comprehensive planning and reduce the economic cost of development.
L. The CITY has published a notice of intention to consider adopting this Agreement pursuant to Government Code Sections 65090 and 65091 and duly held a public hearing.
M. The CITY finds that:
1. This Agreement is consistent with the goals, objectives, policies, gener al land uses and programs specified in the CITY’S General Plan.
2. This Agreement is compatible with the uses authorized in and the regulations prescribed in the 2015 Downtown Specific Plan.
3. This Agreement is in conformity with public convenience, general welfare and good land use practice.
