So I'm gonna call the meeting to order I'm gonna call to order the July 5th meeting of the subdivision development advisory committee By way of short introduction. I'm Charles Carter. I'm on the planning commission and I act as chairman of this this Committee which is subcommittee to the planning commission any decisions by this committee are Appealable to the planning commission in the city of Santa Rosa The first item on our agenda is public comment and less Lonnie you have anything else I need to cover Okay, so this is the portion of the agenda where Take comments on items not listed on the agenda So if there's any member of the public here that wishes to speak to this committee on any item Not listed on the agenda. This is now the time if you wish to make the comment. You can raise your hand No comment, and we don't have any participants via zoom. Okay? Then it does not appear we'll have any random public comment I'll close the public comment period and move on to the schedule item scheduled items on our agenda The first scheduled item item 3.1 is a public hearing for a parcel map waiver certificate of compliance for 1042 hopper avenue file C C 22 dash 002 Is the planner here Yes, I am via zoom. Can you hear me? Okay We can Yeah, so good morning. I'm mike wixen a contract planner with the city and I've been facilitating this project through the process and So we'll start with the presentation just generally where it is that It's on hopper avenue 1042 and 1050 hopper avenue The project itself So this is slide two connor Um Is to Redivide six parcels that's consisting of about six acres a little bit more And we'll then recreate three new parcels one of 2.2 acres one of 1.1 acres and then parcel 3 would be 3.18 acres um The project itself is in a light industrial zone And a light industrial general plan. So we're reviewing this against the standards of the light industrial zoning district And then ensuring its Yeah, in conformance with the general plan land use designation Um the required entitlements are a tentative map with a parcel map waiver So that is what has been submitted and is in front of the subdivision committee this morning So if we can go to the next slide Uh, the next slide shows the location of the project site relative to the land uses around it that are existing in it So this is the aerial photo South hopper avenue Pretty much all the way around it is light industrial uses right now There is a an apartment complex immediately to the east And if you follow that blue line on the east side of that project site Basically to the right of the star It's it's that third parcel right in the middle there that I believe is the So it's an apartment complex use right now as a residential use So if you can go to the next slide, please And this is just a blow up of the project site And you you can see that the site has been developed And it's primarily storage buildings and then light industrial uses within the storage buildings There's a small little area up front at the northeast corner That might be developed in the future at some point but For the most part the site has been developed and uh is being resubdivided To facilitate some new financing for the project site So go to the next slide, please Again, I mentioned it was a light industrial general plan land use designation And then also a light industrial zoning designation And this is just meant to show the surrounding land uses And as you can see the red To the left, you can see the red is a commercial general commercial services land use The light or the white is light industrial land use and then Kind of the darker brown just to the north is a I believe it's a medium density residential And then to the left is a single family residential land use But you can see right now that it's pretty much like a It's it's pretty much a commercial or light industrial surrounding land uses And then also Uh the same with the zoning commercial or light industrial surrounding zoning designations So if we can go to the next slide, please So this is the tentative map itself and it's Colorized this isn't this was done by staff just to kind of highlight And make it more visible to see What's going on here? And so you can see the red lines are showing the new proposed property lines relative to the green buildings And then the pink area is basically a series of Easements for both access and then utilities And uh, and basically you can see lot one I'm sorry. Lot lot one is on the left side Kind of runs north and south lot two is in that northeast corner And then lot three is that leftover area in the southeast part of the site Plus a little bit more um, but basically the buildings are again all compared and The design and configuration of the lots are all compared against the current building code. Sorry current zoning code standards and just making sure all the zoning code setbacks are met and Other issues related to development standards for zoning And staff has found that this project meets all the zoning code standards um, basically one of the unique aspects in this particular zone is that The the creation of these lots Will establish the setbacks the new setbacks That then become used going forward for any project So each setback is shown on Each particular lot and those setbacks will then become the setbacks going forward And that can always be modified with the new project that comes in so if new buildings are constructed That can always be evaluated and then are re-evaluated and changed at that point in time So if we can go to the next slide, please Basically in the environmental review component of this project, it's a categorically exempt project It's a minor land division So no further sequel analysis is really needed for this project And I have to go to the next slide, please Um future development will be required to meet the zoning building code requirements at that time And at this point, there are no unresolved issues Um staff hasn't received any communications regarding the project I'm sorry. That's on the next slide And so at this point, we have no issues. We're recommending approval of the project with the Resolution shown in front of you and then also with those conditions recommended both by planning fire building and engineering And if there's any questions, I believe cleave is there And uh, he's from the engineering division can help answer questions For engineering. I believe bill sumski is there as the applicant and then related to planning questions or issues I'm happy to try and help answer those as well And that would conclude the presentation Okay, thank you mike before I proceed With any questions or anything I should We didn't do the x parte and I'll disclose that I have visited the site as part of that Any disclosures from the other committee members? Um from engineering aspect, we reviewed the project and it complies with all the city code All seems I know the subject of that So no additional comments from staff. I'm assuming uh, is the applicant here Do they wish to make any comments or a presentation at this time? I'm here for the applicant. Okay I don't have any other comments Maybe we'll have you state your name for the record. I'm sorry Judy Connor. Thank you. Thank you So I guess we'll move on to the public hearing and open the public hearing on this item Do we have anyone on zoom our conference call for the public comment period?

You're welcome We'll move on to item 3.2 It's a public hearing for parcel map waiver And certificate of compliance for 2248 gernville road file cc 22003 It's to reconfigure an existing legal parcel into 10 new parcels and we have Planner connor mckay here for the presentation. Thank you chair carter. Good morning everybody. Um, you know like Chair Carter said this is a parcel map waiver located at 2448 gernville road This would divide a single legal parcel into eight airspace condominiums with a common parcel consisting of the parking lot No change in land use and the required entitlements are a parcel map waiver certificate of compliance The building the subject property is currently an office building With some single family and multifamily residential uses Scattered to the south and the west Here is a zoom in on the existing office building I kind of cropped the general plan and zoning snippets a little bit too heavily, but you can see that the general plan land use designation of the site is office and the zoning district for the property is office commercial Like I said the surrounding areas are primarily residential and office spaces as well Here we have the site plan you can see the parcels are being divided into airspace condominiums like I mentioned with that common space being the parking lot This project was also found reviewed in compliance with the california environmental quality act Categorically exempt pursuant to the minor land division section We have not received any communications about this project and can make the required findings to recommend approval And i'm available for any questions Is there any other staff within the additional comments or questions for staff on this item? Okay, is there a representative from the applicant here? Okay, do you wish to make a presentation or make any comments at this time? um Not at this time, but I could respond if someone else has questions. Okay. Can you uh state your name for the record? Yeah, josh hammer thank you um With no questions from staff or comments I guess we can open the public hearing on this one. Do we have anyone Standing by by phone or zoom Um, we do have somebody via zoom. It looks like they're raising their hand carol um, I'm not sure if she's part of our staff or um member of the public Okay, um, can we get the public hearing timer up then? Yes Give me one second. All right. Is are you carol dugas? No carol small and member of the public Okay, give me a second to get the timer going. Okay. I'll be brief Alrighty, uh, go ahead Yes, hi I um am a resident of the pinebrook town homes. It's to the left of where the well to the west of where the um proposed air condominiums are can someone translate what that means is that a mobile home? um Lots or what exactly is an air condominium? Carol if you have more questions, you can keep going and then once your public comment period Is over then we can um address your questions or concerns. Okay. I just want to kind of understand the impact um on the little um, I think it's 54 or 58 um town homes that exist very close by And how long the construction is estimated to take or the demolition Do you have any more questions carol? No, thank you. Well, thank you for your questions and comments I think we have uh representative of the uh applicant here who can respond to that question and we can follow up with staff comments as necessary Go ahead sir. Okay. Yeah, I think there there's a lot of um Maybe people around don't understand quite what's happening And so I just wanted to shed a little light on that and clarify There there would be no building no construction No changes And no changes to the use of the building it would still be all the same Businesses that are in there. It's primarily dental and medical offices that are in there And so that would all stay the same The process of this is just to make it so that the businesses that are already there could Buy their section so they they could have ownership of their section So it would just be dividing what's there everything stays the same rather than they're just being One ownership of the whole building. Uh, just the individual there would be a condo association But it wouldn't be for residential would be for the exact same type of businesses that are there And um, but those business owners could then you know have some ownership in in their office And I'll add um any future Residential development would be subject to um permitting requirements and currently the zoning district is office commercial Which is generally pretty limited as to what can be developed for residential uses Um, so if there was For some reason a plan in the future for that it would be a completely separate process And this process has nothing to do with any future residential development Thank you Thank you So just in summary what we're hearing is it's a change in ownership status And there's no proposal for change in land use or new development with this project So just to clarify Um, do we have any further public comments? Um, that was it. We only have Carol participating via zoom. Is there anybody else in person who wants to make a comment? Sure. Um, go that out Ready Would you define the airspace condominiums again, I can't quite wrap my head mind around that it's just Mr. McKay Yeah, I'll take a crack at it. Maybe thank you my engineer friends can correct me if I'm wrong But my understanding is that a stand a standard parcel is lines on the ground um an airspace condominiums is basically creating Parcels that are on top of each other. So the airspace is that there's technically a legal lot that's In the air above an existing above a separate Parcel so it's basically like legal lots that are on top of each other And it's common in residential condos, but in this case It's creating an office building where individual tenants become owners of Their suites in a larger building Okay, that helps. Thanks. And then the the parking landscaping those are all held in common by the the condominium owners of the individual office spaces I haven't heard that term before yeah condominium most folks Assume residential, but this is an office condominium Thank you uh See no more Hands raised for public comment. I'll now close the public comment period on this one and Ask the secretary to call for Gabe were you working on this one? Okay, Gabe Osburn. Hi Chair Carter. Hi Connor McKay. Yes So this passes with three eyes No nays and zero absences And just a reminder that this decision is final unless it's an appeal is filed with the planning and economic development department within the next 10 calendar days Hey, that brings us I'll give you a second during for Uh item three point through public hearing Parcel map waiver and certificate of compliance for 2498 Kernville road file cc 22 dash 004 I will disclose that I have visited the site and ask other members of the committee if they have any exparte disclosures I have not visited the site Good morning. This is my name is norbisla and the project before you is a request for a parcel map waiver certificate of compliance for 2498 Kernville road The proposal would split the existing law into two separate lots It is currently a 0.86 acre parcel with a bank and a veterinary hospital on it The site is zone neighborhood commercial and the general plan land use designation is retail and business services Here's the site plan that would divide the existing law. It would be split Down the middle here and there's sufficient parking on both sides The proposal doesn't need all city code requirements including parking and setbacks The project is categorically exempt from the california environmental environmental quality act as it's a minor land division And therefore it is recommended by the planning and economic development department that the sub subdivision committee approve a certificate of compliance To divide the property at 2498 Kernville road into two lots For any questions, this is my contact information. I do believe we have a representative of the applicant team on zoom as well and cleave was the engineer on this project So he can answer any engineering questions. Okay Let's see I'm good. I I do have a question. I'm just trying to figure out when's the best time to ask um, I there was not a formal parking analysis within the staff materials for this particular one and if I just look at the The proposed map I see 30 something parking spaces on one site in about 11 or 12 on the other um Can we confirm that those that the parking on the resulting parcels will Comply with the zoning requirements. Yes. I don't have the exact numbers um off the top of my head, but I did compare them to city code with the appropriate land uses that On both sides. Yeah in total it looks pretty certain. I it just looked like there were far fewer parcels are parking Slots on the one side than the other than the bank on the bank side and on the veterinarian side Is there a representative here today that can shed a little more light on that? I'm not seeing him on zoom. Oh, okay My name is rick swent on what's bk of engineers So I can address any questions you have rewritten the site. Yeah, just the driveway going out of the bank site there's a bunch of parking spaces on both sides yet those to the South appear to be across the property line. Can you Perhaps on the site plan show me how the parking is distributed for the two parcels I believe that the based on the usage Be honest with you. It's it was addressed based on the existing conditions I don't think there's any there are no proposed changes or anything with these buildings Understood. Um Miss bees look if you could put that site back up there So if we look at the driveway in the middle Uh, there are some parking with the angled parking some angled parking against the bank parcel And then some angled parsing Some angled parking on the other side this right there Those are across the property line and they seem to be Are oriented for use of the other parcel Did you have a chance to look at that in terms of numbers? Numbers wise on either parcel there is enough parking for the use I don't know the exact number that would be required, but I There was an analysis done with the city code I could speak a bit to it on this one our engineering conditions approval we wrote Um, but the afghans engineer surveyor Shall evaluate the need for any easements And we make a reference to any parking Access easements cross a lot. Okay, that would be needed. Um, and then those who need to be submitted with a separate subdivision map or Um separate instruments with like legal descriptions and plots great that that's that's what I was looking for so if If that's in the conditions of approvals, I think we can As I said, I think in total we've got the number of parking, but it looked like it might be an easy situation So thank you for including that engineering department So with that all my questions have been answered. I'll go ahead and open the public Comment on this item where the applicant or members of the public can make comment Sorry, give me a second here Um, is there anybody in person wishing to make a comment? Um, if you're attending via zoom and wish to make a comment, please raise your hand You can do so by selecting the icon at the bottom of your zoom screen Chair Carter, there are no hands raised at this time. Okay So then I will close the public hearing on this item And ask the secretary to call for the vote Uh, gave Osburn Clape Granny Chair Carter. I Uh, nor B's left. I That passes with three i's no nays and zero absences Once again, this decision is final unless an appeal is filed with the planning and economic department within the next 10 calendar days and uh That concludes our meeting for today
