RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ROSA

MAKING FINDINGS AND DETERMINATIONS AND RECOMMENDING TO CITY

COUNCIL ADOPTION OF ZONING CODE TEXT AMENDMENT S TO ADDRESS

STREAMLINING AND PROCESS IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE CONDITIONAL USE

PERMIT PROCESS

WHEREAS, the City of Santa Rosa desires to streamline the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process, which was last updated in 2004, in order to provide a more predictable and less costly process for applicants and business owners, with the primary objective being to support economic development within the City, by making it easier to establish and expand businesses; and

WHEREAS, on April 9, 2024, the City Council approved a five year (2024-2029) Economic Development Strategic Plan, which includes a vision for business growth, economic vibrancy and resiliency, and community investment. One of the actions within the Strategic Plan is to review and amend the Zoning Code, where needed, to align with economic strategies in support of development initiatives and opportunities; and

WHEREAS, on February 19, 2025, at the City Council Goal Setting Workshop, the Council set five strategic priorities for fiscal years 2025-2027. Two of the priorities were to “achieve and maintain fiscal sustainability and budgeting excellence” and “promote Citywide economic development”; and

WHEREAS, on June 3, 2025, the City Council adopted the Santa Rosa General Plan 2050, which includes Land Use and Economic Development (Chapter 2). This chapter of the General Plan supports thoughtful land use planning and economic development strategies to enhance and build on neighborhood assets, address current challenges, improve fiscal stability, increase personal opportunity, and improve quality of life for everyone in Santa Rosa. More specifically, the General Plan includes an action to “ensure alignment between the General Plan, Zoning Code, and all City policies, procedures, plans, and strategies, including the Economic Development Strategy and Implementation Plan”; and

WHEREAS, in July and August 2025, City staff had the opportunity to present the CUP Streamlining initiative to downtown business owners and commercial real estate brokers.

Through this effort, staff received early feedback on the existing CUP process and ideas for improvements to meet the goals, policies and actions set forth in the Economic Development Strategic Plan and General Plan 2050, and in support of Council goals; and

WHEREAS, on January 8, 2026, a project website was posted, with a summary of the project and links to draft Zoning Code amendments developed to address streamlining of the CUP process. Subsequently, notices were posted on the City’s social media outlets and e-mailed out to the Santa Rosa Metro Chamber, Railroad Square Association, those who participated in the July and August 2025 business owner and broker meetings, as well as to anyone with a business license in Santa Rosa (10,426 e-mails). The community was invited to review the draft Resolution No. PC-RES-2026-007

streamlining amendments and provide comments by February 5, 2026. Following this effort, the draft amendments were further refined; and

WHEREAS, on March 12, 2026, the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Rosa held a duly noticed public hearing to consider recommending to the City Council adoption of Zoning Code Text Amendments to address streamlining and process improvements for the Conditional Use Permit process; and

WHEREAS, Santa Rosa City Charter, Section 51, provides that all general laws shall apply to the City – this includes the requirement for a hearing for a requested CUP. The proposed new Director CUP would not require a public hearing or meeting, unless one is requested by a member of the public. However, the Charter provides that the City Council “shall have the power to pass ordinances which in relation to municipal affairs shall control as against the general laws of the state.” “Municipal affair” generally means local in nature, not affecting persons or property outside the jurisdiction of the City and not interfering with a statewide regulatory scheme. This can and does include many zoning regulations. Pursuant to Section 51 of the Charter of the City of Santa Rosa, the Planning Commission recommends that the City Council determine that the procedures governing review and approval of Conditional Use Permits are a municipal affair relating to local zoning and land use regulation. Accordingly, and notwithstanding Government Code section 65905, the Planning Commission recommends that the Council adopt the procedures set forth in Zoning Code Chapter 20-52, Permit Review Procedures, as it relates to the proposed new Director CUP process, in lieu of any state-law public hearing requirements that would otherwise apply; and

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has received, reviewed and given due consideration to the records and reports herein, and the oral and other evidence received at the public hearing, from the public and City staff.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that based on the evidence presented and the records and files herein, and pursuant to City Code Section 20-64-050 (Findings), the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Rosa finds and determines:

A. The proposed amendments are consistent with the goals and policies of all elements of the General Plan, and all applicable specific plans. The Santa Rosa General Plan addresses issues related to the physical development and growth of Santa Rosa and guides the City's planning and zoning functions. Chapter 2, Land Use and Economic Development, of General Plan 2050 seeks to reinforce local pride, attract new business, retain and grow existing business, and bolster the vitality of the City as a whole by supporting thoughtful land use planning and economic development strategies. To that end, there are numerous goals, policies and actions supporting economic development that are relevant to the CUP Streamlining initiative, including the following:

• Goal 2-5: Create a business-friendly, diverse, and sustainable economy through the attraction of new business, and the expansion, retention, and support of existing business.

Resolution No. PC-RES-2026-007

Page 3 of 61 ends

➢ Policy 2-5.1: Encourage growth of existing business clusters as well as new, diverse industries and job types throughout Santa Rosa.

o Action 2-5.2: Ensure alignment between the General Plan, Zoning Code, and all City policies, procedures, plans, and strategies, including the Economic Development Strategy and Implementation Plan.

o Action 2-5.3: Support and strengthen the entrepreneurship ecosystems and create pathways to successful small business ownership.

• Goal 2-6: Create a vibrant and livable city.

➢ Policy 2-6.1: Address infrastructure needs and update policy, as appropriate, in support of economic accelerators.

o Action 2-6.3: Explore and implement necessary amendments to the Zoning Code where needed to align with economic strategies and to create flexibility for development, redevelopment, and to fill vacant spaces.

o Action 2-6.5: Support development of sports and entertainment (including health and wellness) as an economic driver to bolster tourism and update the Zoning Code to allow these uses more broadly throughout all areas of the city.

o Action 2-6.6: Work with property owners, the business community, and others to support efforts to attract or expand development, redevelopment, and new businesses opportunities in vacant or underutilized commercial space.

o Action 2-6.7: Support community events and activities through policy development, direct programming and funding support.

• Goal 2-9: Foster sustained, inclusive growth that generates long-term, shared value in the community and creates economic opportunities for all residents.

➢ Action 2-9.2: Update the Zoning Code to allow mobile food and crafts vendors, farmers markets, art and artisan pop-ups and community gathering events in all nonresidential zoning districts.

The CUP streamlining measures are consistent with the General Plan 2050. The Zoning Code amendments will provide a more predictable and less costly process for business owners, serving to support economic development by simplifying the process to establish and expand businesses within the City. The creation of a Director CUP process will allow certain uses to be reviewed and approved administratively rather than requiring a public meeting or hearing, unless one is specifically requested. This new administrative Resolution No. PC-RES-2026-007

Page 4 of 61 ends

process, coupled with reducing the level of CUP (Director, Minor, or Major) for certain uses, such as mobile food vending, commercial recreation facilities and general retail stores, will reduce timelines and improve overall efficiency while still maintaining appropriate review and oversight. The changes to the Temporary Use Permit section of the Zoning Code will allow for a broader range of temporary activities, including pop-up retail and interim activities for vacant or underutilized sites and buildings, supporting the activation of these spaces and encouraging reinvestment.

B. The proposed amendments would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City in that the amendments are intended to provide a more streamlined and predictable process for businesses and enhance the City’s economic development efforts. All development and new uses allowed under the provisions of these amendments are required to comply with existing local and state regulations.

C. The proposed amendments are internally consistent with other applicable provisions of the Zoning Code. Specifically, as part of the proposed amendments, all changes related to streamlining the Conditional Use Permit process have been incorporated into all sections of the Zoning Code that address the CUP process.

D. The proposed Conditional Use Permit streamlining amendments to the Zoning Code have been reviewed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and it has determined that the proposed action is exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the amendments or their implementation would have a significant effect on the environment. Specifically, while the proposed amendments will create a new Director level CUP process, reduce the CUP requirements of certain land uses, and allow for a broader range of temporary activities, they do not constitute approval of any specific development project and do not limit the City’s discretion to consider environmental impacts, alternatives or mitigation measures in connection with any future discretionary approval. Any future development proposal under the Director level CUP process would be subject to separate discretionary approvals and independent environmental review under CEQA at the time a specific project is proposed.

The proposed action is also exempt under CEQA Guidelines section 15183 in that the proposed Zoning Code text amendments are consistent with the General Plan. The Santa Rosa General Plan 2050 includes numerous goals, policies, and actions that support economic development, encourage policy and regulatory amendments in support of various business types, and align economic strategies to create flexibility for development, redevelopment, and to fill vacant commercial and industrial spaces within the City. The minor edits to streamline the CUP requirements for residential uses are consistent with the housing related goals, policies, and actions of the General Plan 2050 and the 2023-2031 Housing Element related to the City’s continuing efforts to support housing development. The proposed amendments are consistent with, and do not change, the General Plan densities and land uses; the amendments address the CUP review process only. The EIR analyzed the proposed land uses and looked at environmental Resolution No. PC-RES-2026-007

Page 5 of 61 ends

impacts of those uses. This streamlined review keeps those same land uses in place. The economic development and housing related goals, policies, and actions were reviewed as part of the General Plan 2050 Environmental Impact Report (EIR) adopted by City Council Resolution No. 2025-090, dated June 3, 2025. There are no impacts peculiar to the proposed amendments that were not already analyzed in the EIR or would require additional analysis.

Finally, the proposed action, as it relates to changes to the Temporary Use Permit section of the Zoning Code, is exempt under CEQA Guidelines section 15304, Minor Alterations to Land, which consists of minor public or private alterations in the condition of land, water, and/or vegetation. Specifically, CEQA Guidelines section 15304(e) provides the example of “minor temporary use of land having negligible or no permanent effects on the environment, including carnivals, sales of Christmas trees, etc.” The proposed changes to the Temporary Use Permit regulations include minor edits to the existing regulations allowing temporary activities and structures within specified time limits. The addition of allowing temporary pop-up retail and interim activities includes language requiring such uses to be located within existing structures or temporary structures that do not include the construction of permanent facilities.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that, after public hearing on March 12, 2026, the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Rosa finds that amending the Santa Rosa Zoning Code, as follows, is required for public convenience, necessity and general welfare:

Section 1. Amend Santa Rosa City Code Section 20-21.030(A)(b) to read and provide as follows:

“b. Where a single parcel is proposed for development with two or more of the land uses listed in the tables, the overall project shall be subject to the highest permit level required by Subsection B for any individual use. For example, Table 2-6 in Section 20-23.030 would require that a new building proposed in the CN zoning district with a bar/tavern on the ground floor and professional offices on the second floor would require Director Conditional Use Permit (DUP) approval because Table 2-6 requires Director Conditional Use Permit approval for "Bar/Tavern," even though "Office—Business/Service" is listed in the CN zone as a permitted use, requiring only a Zoning Clearance.”

Section 2. Amend Santa Rosa City Code Section 20-21.030(B) to read and provide as follows:

“B. Permit requirements. Tables 2-2, 2-6, and 2-10 within Chapters 20-22, 20-23, and 20- 24 provide for land uses that are:

1. Permitted subject to compliance with all applicable provisions of this Zoning Code, subject to first obtaining a Zoning Clearance (Section 20-52.020). These are shown as "P" uses in the tables;
Resolution No. PC-RES-2026-007

Page 6 of 61 ends

2. Allowed subject to the approval of a Director Conditional Use Permit (Section 20-52.050), and shown as “DUP” uses in the tables;

3. Allowed subject to the approval of a Minor Conditional Use Permit (Section 20-

52.050), and shown as "MUP" uses in the tables;

4. Allowed subject to the approval of a Major Conditional Use Permit (Section 20-

52.050), and shown as "CUP" uses in the tables;

5. Allowed subject to the type of City approval required by a specific provision of Chapter 20-42 (Standards for Specific Land Uses), and shown as "S" uses in the tables; and

6. Not allowed in particular zoning districts.

Note: A land use authorized through the approval of a Zoning Clearance, Director Conditional Use Permit, Minor Conditional Use Permit, or Major Conditional Use Permit may also require Design Review approval (Section 20-52.030), a Building Permit, or other permit required by the City Code.”

Section 3. Amend Santa Rosa City Code Section 20-22.030, Table 2-2 to read and provide as follows:
