GARAPICH/NOGLE I - 3ECOMMEN DED ACTION: -
The Planning Commission and staff are recommending that the City Council direct the Attorney's Office to prepare documents DENYING
GPA/LU 83-5/2C-282 and SDP 83-7.
ITEM EXPLANATION
The applicant is requesting approval of an amendment to the Land
Use Element of the General Plan to change the designation from Medium-High Density (RMH, 10-20 du/ac) to the new Very High Density (RVH 30-40 du/ac), an accompanying zone change from R-3 to RD-H and a site development plan which is required by the RD-H zone.
When the Council approved the new RVH general plan designation and RD-H zone it was made clear that these designations were to be used only in special locations to provide higher densities for areas near high employment centers, the downtown core area, or to provide affordable housing. The Planning Commission and staff
had concerns' that the project would not accomplish any of the three criteria. At the Planning Commission hearing the applicant indicated that they could work with staff and provide affordable rents for the proposed units. Based on this information the Planning Commission denied the project, but by minute motion, indicated that they could support the proposed request if the applicant provided affordable housing. At this time the
applicant has not provided any rent information to the City.
FISCAL IMPACT
The applicant would'provide all required improvements to the property. Also, the applicant has agreed to pay a public facilities fee to offset the costs of providing all other public services.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Land use Planning Manager issued a negative declaration for this project which was approved by the Planning Commission on August 24, 1983.
