PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project applicant has submitted a request for a three-year time extension for the Southtown Commons Planned Development and Design Review approvals. The Southtown Commons project was originally approved by the Planning Commission October 4, 2005. The approved project consists of: • the subdivision of approximately 39 acres into 241 single family residential lots consistent with the RL-3.6 zoning standards;

• •

a 5 acre parcel for a future self storage facility on land zoned CG, General Commercial; a 3.25 acre parcel for a detention basin/park on land zoned CF-Community Facilities.

The project included a Planned Development approval allowing exceptions to the RL-3.6 zoning setback standards, and Design Review approval of the development layout, housing mix and residential architecture. As originally approved, the project is dependent upon installation of the water and sewer infrastructure associated with the Southtown development area located on the west side of Leisure Town Road. A two-year time extension was approved for this project on October 16, 2007. The previously approved Tentative Map has been extended for three years by California Senate Bill 1185 and Assembly Bill 33 until October 16, 2012. The Tentative Map proposal is to subdivide 9 acres into 241 parcels for residential development. One parcel is proposed for a self-storage facility; and the other parcel is set aside for public use as a detention basin. The City is currently reviewing improvement plans for construction of both on and off-site infrastructure for the subdivision and a first phase final map. The Southtown Commons subdivision has been dependent upon the construction of major infrastructure improvements by the Southtown Phase 1 developer, which are designed to serve the Southtown development area west of Leisure Town Road as well as the Southtown Commons project on the east side of Leisure Town Road. Although infrastructure installation is proceeding, it has not been completed and the timing of completion has affected the ability of the Southtown Commons developer to meet his Planned Development and Design Review requirements within the original two year approval period. The developer requests the three-year time extension in order to have the Planned Development and Design Review match the time period of the Tentative Map. PREVIOUS ACTIONS February 25, 2003 City Council initiated General Plan Amendments for the 280-acre Southtown Project area and the 37-acre Moody property. March 30, 2004 The Planning Commission forwarded a recommendation to the City Council that the Southtown/Moody General Plan Amendment, Prezoning, Planned Development, Amendment to the Comprehensive Annexation Plan, Annexation, and Development Agreements be approved and the Southtown/Moody Environmental Impact Report be certified. April 27, 2004 The City Council approved the Southtown/Moody General Plan Amendment, Prezoning, Planned Development, Amendment to the Comprehensive Annexation Plan, Annexation, and Development Agreements and certified the Southtown/Moody Environmental Impact Report. (SCH#2003062071) May 11, 2004 The City Council adopted an ordinance approving a development agreement between the City and the Miller-Sorg Group for proposed development on what is commonly referred to as the Moody Property; later to be known as the Southtown Commons project. September 13, 2004 The Solano County Local Agency Formation Commission adopted Resolution No. 04-08, Approving the Annexation of Lands Known as Southtown Annexation to the City of Vacaville. June 8, 2005 The Solano County Local Agency Formation Commission filed a Certificate of Completion finalizing the Southtown Annexation into the City of Vacaville.

October 4, 2005 The Planning Commission approved a Tentative Map, Planned Development and Design Review for the Southtown Commons (Moody) project. May 22, 2007 The City Council exercised Section 9.B. the “Excusable Delay” provision of the Moody Develoment Agreement and suspended compliance with time limits for construction specified in Section 4.C. which effectively extended the deadlines to until the earlier of (1) June 11, 2010; or (2) until the Southtown project’s main domestic water and sewer lines have been extended to the eastern boundary of the Southtown project adjacent to Leisure Town Road; or (3) 18 months following City of Vacaville approval of the Moody Project’s Improvement Plans. October 16, 2007 The Planning Commission approved a two-year Time Extension for the Tentative Map, Planned Development and Design Review for the Southtown Commons (Moody) project. PROJECT ANALYSIS 1.

Planned Development

A Planned Development allows for flexibility in applying zoning regulations in order to encourage innovation and creativity in project concept and design. The Planning Commission may approve exceptions to standards through a planned development, provided that the project demonstrates that such exceptions result in a superior design that could not otherwise have been achieved under the zoning standards. 2.

Design Review

Design Review is the part of the project review process that addresses the aesthetic character of lands and buildings and the overall layout of a development on a site, as well as its compatibility with surrounding land uses. The 2005 Southtown Commons Planned Development and Design Review approvals were based on the following project features. Residential Lots and Sizes: The 241 residential lots are designed consistent with the RLM 3.6 standards and proposed for single family residences. The minimum residential lot size is 40’ x 90’ (3,600 sq. ft.) and corner lots are 45’ x 90’ (4,050 sq. ft.). The Planned Development approval allowed for some of the lots in the cul-de-sacs to have reduced frontage width due to the curve of the roadway, but the minimum lot area requirements are met. Several larger lots in the subdivision were originally considered to off-set the size restrictions of the culde-sac lots. The development includes zero-lot line lots which were found to provide variety from the standard RLM-3.6 standards, and address alternate design requirements for residential development. Zero-lot line lots place the location of a structure on a lot in such a manner that one or more of the structure’s sides rests directly on a lot line. On-Site Recreation and Detention Basin: The project includes a required detention basin for storm runoff which will be coordinated as open space in the neighborhood park design at the north east corner of the site. Self Storage Facility: A commercial parcel was approved along the eastern boundary of the development (conceptually designated for a self-storage facility). The solid walls of the commercial development along the property boundary will provide the required sound mitigation between the railroad tracks and the residential development. Access to the commercial site is from a right turn in – right turn out only driveway located at

3

the southern corner of the site. An emergency egress from the commercial parcel is required at the northern end of the site. The final design of the self storage facility will be subject to review by the Planning Commission as part of a separate use permit process. Architectural Design: Four house plans are proposed, representing the Coastal, Shingle, American, and Craftsman styles of architecture. Six different models will be offered, with some single story buildings but predominantly two story homes. Each unit will have two garage spaces with space for two more vehicles in the driveway. Corner lots may have a side-entry garage, and some will have tandem garages. (Floor plans and elevations included in Attachment 4). Proposed Zero Lot Line Units: Of the 241 lots within the subdivision, 97 lots (40%) are proposed with a zero lot line on one side. These units are designed with an alternating front/rear garage configuration with some garages set back up to 50 feet from the street. This site design creates variety in streetscape by providing “visual space” between structures and offers additional off street parking area. Residential Development Standards The residential zoning designation for this project is RLM-3.6. The development meets the provisions of the Land Use and Development Code Chapter 14.09.074, Residential Districts Development Standards with exceptions as noted in the right hand column.

(1)

Some of the cul-de-sac lots and those on the curved portions of a street will have a narrower frontage, but the average lot width meets the 40-foot standard.

(2)

Where a single story garage is adjacent to a property line the minimum set back will be 3.5 feet.

(3)

The Land Use and Development Code allows homes in the RLM 3.6 District to have a zero side yard setback so long as there is 12 feet from the adjacent structure. The applicant is proposing a zero side yard at garages and requesting a reduction to 10 feet between buildings.

4

(4) The minimum distance between structures within the conventional small-lot portion of the project is 10 feet except in those cases where a single story garage is adjacent to a property line (Note 2 above). Perimeter Walls and Fencing: Solid masonry walls will be constructed along the north property line, and along the western perimeter fronting on Leisure Town Road (Jepson Parkway), and as a separator between the residences and the self-storage facility. The solid masonry wall is required to be a minimum of six feet and a maximum of eight feet unless otherwise required by the acoustical analysis. The proposed self-storage facility may be designed so that building walls serve as sound mitigation for the residential neighborhood. Wood fencing is proposed between residential lots. Leisure Town Road Improvements: Leisure Town Road will be constructed to full Jepson Parkway design criteria. A 35-foot landscaped set back with a ten-foot meandering sidewalk will be installed at the applicants sole expense. A full-access, signalized intersection at Leisure Town Road will be installed in the first phase of development. The northern access to the site will be limited to right turn in – right turn out only. Internal Streets and On-street Parking: All of the streets in the project are public streets designed to City Standards. Parking will be allowed on both sides of the street and a condition of approval was imposed requiring traffic calming “neck-downs” on streets over 750 feet in length. Curb face to curb face: Sidewalks: On- Street Parking: Guest parking:

36 feet within 56’ of right-of-way 5’ sidewalks on both sides Both sides of all streets Minimum of two in each driveway

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Southtown / Moody Environmental Impact Report An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Southtown/Moody projects was certified by the City Council on April 27, 2004 (State Clearinghouse Number 2003062071). This EIR looked at the entire Southtown development area, including the Southtown Commons (Moody) project area. The type and intensity of development shown on the project plans is consistent with the analysis in the EIR. Implementation of Southtown Commons development will be required to implement mitigation measures outlined in the EIR. Pursuant to CEQA Section 15162, the City has already determined that the requested tentative map and associated project approvals for Southtown Commons fall within the scope of the adopted EIR for the Southtown/Moody. The project plans have not changed, nor have the circumstances under which the project was approved; therefore, it is appropriate to determine that the requested time extension for Southtown Commons remains within the scope of the certified Southtown EIR and that no further CEQA documentation is required. CONCLUSION Staff is recommending that the Commission approve a three-year extension of the Planned Development and Design Review approval to run with the Tentative Map approval through October 16, 2012 for the following reasons: 1. The City typically approves time extensions in one-year increments unless special circumstances demonstrate a need for additional time. The logistics of developing infrastructure and

5

coordinating the implementation of other requirements for the Southtown development area warrants consideration of a three-year extension; however, construction of off site utilities is progressing and the developer of Southtown Commons is proceeding with improvement plans and a first phase final map. Based on the progress of infrastructure construction and plan submittals, it is possible for the Southtown Commons development to proceed within the threeyear period. 2. A three-year extension will provide a reasonable time frame for the developer to coordinate the implementation of all of the requirements imposed with the conditions of approval and will effectively synchronize the Tentative Map approval extension with the Planned Development and Design Review approval extension. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution 09-121, approving a three-year time extension to October 16, 2012 for the Southtown Commons Planned Development and Design Review approval, subject to the original conditions of approval.

RESOLUTION NO. 09-121 RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF VACAVILLE APPROVING A THREE-YEAR EXTENSION FOR THE SOUTHTOWN COMMONS PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AND DESIGN REVIEW APPROVALS WHEREAS, Miller-Sorg Group, property owner, submitted a request for a three-year extension for the Southtown Commons Planned Development and Design Review approvals on October 16, 2009; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Vacaville conducted a duly noticed public hearing on November 17, 2009, to consider the request for a three year extension of their first time extension approval of October 16, 2007 at the following described property: Approximately 39 acres of vacant land located on the east side of Leisure Town Road, just south of the New Alamo Creek Channel and east of the Southtown development area. APNs: 136-120-02; 136-120-03 WHEREAS, the Planning Commission received testimony from City staff, the applicant, and all interested parties regarding the proposed project; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission considered the recommendation from City staff that the time extension be granted for three years to match the State Time Extension timeline; such term falling within the term of the Development Agreement and giving the developer reasonable time to pursue completion of improvement drawings and a final map for the project and to allow time for the completion of off site Southtown infrastructure by others that is needed to serve the developer’s project; and, such term allowing for the City to assess any change of circumstances, both physical and jurisdictional at the end of two years should another extension request be made; and, WHEREAS, an Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse Number 2003062071) ("EIR") was prepared for the Southtown project and certified by the City Council on April. 27, 2004, including the adoption of a Statement of Overriding Considerations and a Mitigation Monitoring Program (Resolution 2004-36); and, In accordance with Public Resources Code Section 21081, the City Council made the following findings: (1) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which mitigate or avoid the significant effects on the environment; (2) Specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible [certain] mitigation measures or alternatives identified in the environmental impact report; and (3) Specific overriding economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits of the project outweigh the significant effects on the environment; and WHEREAS, no additional environmental analysis under CEQA is required because the EIR included an analysis of the potential impacts of the Southtown Commons project, and the Planning Commission has determined, on the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, all of the following: (1) No substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (2) No substantial changes have occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;

7

(3) No new information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the EIR was certified as complete, shows any of the following: (i) that the project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the EIR; (ii) that significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the EIR; (iii) that mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or (iv) that mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed the request for a time extension of the Planned Development approval for the Southtown Commons development and re-confirms that the original findings apply to a three-year extension of the approval as follows: 1.

That the proposed location of the planned development is in accordance with the goals, objectives, and policies of the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance, and the Development Code; The planned development remains consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. Neither document has been significantly amended since the original approval in areas that would affect the project consistency with City land use policies and development standards.

8

5.

That adequate public facilities, including water, sewer, parks, schools, and other facilities are available to serve the site or will be made available as a condition of approval to serve the proposed development, without adversely affecting the existing public facilities serving surrounding neighborhoods; All public facilities are available to the site or will become available as a result of infrastructure improvements constructed by the project and/or planned and installed for the entire Southtown development area.

6.

That projected traffic levels and levels of service are, or as a result of conditions of approval, will be consistent with the policies of the Transportation Element of the General Plan; Traffic mitigations required by the Southtown FEIR address the traffic impacts of the project. The project is required to implement certain mitigations that address impacts caused by the project.

7.

That the potential impacts to the City’s inventory of residential lands has been considered. The design of the development remains consistent with the concept of housing types and neighborhood layout approved for the Southtown area when it was annexed to the City.

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed the request for a time extension for the Design Review approval associated with the Southtown Commons Development and re-confirms that the original findings apply to a two year extension of the approval as follows: 1.

That the project is consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the General Plan, the Zoning Ordinance, and the Development Code; The planned development remains consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. Neither document has been significantly amended since the original approval in areas that would affect the project consistency with City land use policies and development standards. A limitation of three years for the time extension provides a reasonable time frame and sufficient opportunity for the development to proceed but will also allow the City to re-assess the circumstances of project design relative to policies and standards in effect at the time of any future time extension requests.

2.

That the proposed project is consistent with the standards and regulations of the applicable zoning district, and is consistent with any other approvals for the site; The design of the development remains consistent with the concept of housing types and neighborhood layout approved for the Southtown area when it was annexed to the City.

3.

That the subject site is suitable for the type and intensity of use or development proposed, and that the design, size, and other physical characteristics of the proposed use are compatible with adjacent uses, or with adjacent natural resources; The design of the development remains consistent with the concept of housing types and neighborhood layout approved for the Southtown area when it was annexed to the City.

9

4.

That the proposed uses will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of the community; The project is designed consistent with City standards and codes and will be subject to standard permit review and inspection processes established to protect the public health, safety and welfare.

5.

That adequate public facilities and services are available to serve the site or will be made available concurrent with the proposed development; All public facilities are available to the site or will become available as a result of infrastructure improvements constructed by the project and/or planned and installed for the entire Southtown development area.

6.

That projected traffic levels and levels of service are, or as result of conditions of approval, will be consistent with the policies of the Transportation Element of the General Plan; Traffic mitigations required by the Southtown FEIR address the traffic impacts of the project. The project is required to implement certain mitigations that address impacts caused by the project.

7.

That the project is consistent with any design guidelines adopted pursuant to Section 14.01.003.020(C) of Division 14.01, Administration, of this Title, for the type of use or structures proposed. The development plan and project architecture have not changed from the original approval and therefore remain consistent with this finding.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission of the City Vacaville does hereby approve a three-year extension to October 16, 2012 of the Southtown Commons Planned Development and Design Review approvals in accordance with the findings above and subject to the conditions of approval set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Major Storm Drain System Features. A preliminary storm drain study has been conducted for the Southtown Commons (Moody) project by West Yost & Associates. The Developer shall be required to provide more detailed hydrologic and hydraulic analyses to confirm the preliminary detention basin configuration, and to confirm the water surface elevations in New Alamo Creek. Using said storm drain study, along with any subsequent supplements, the Developer shall prepare detailed design calculations and plans for the construction of the detention basin, major and minor storm system improvements and overland release as shown on the approved Tentative Map. The following specific features will be required to provide adequate flood control for Southtown Commons: Detention Basin: The Southtown Commons Developer shall be responsible for constructing a minimum 7 acre-foot storm drain detention basin which shall be built along with the infrastructure for the first phase of improvements (Phase 1) and shall be completed prior to the first building occupancy. Preliminary studies have indicated that the basin shall be equipped with two 24” lowflow pipe outlets or control structure as necessary, and possibly a weir type armored spillway directing water to New Alamo Creek. The size and number of outlet pipes will be based upon the final storm drain study and recommendations by the City’s storm drain consultant, West Yost & Associates. The Developer shall also construct a concrete lined swale in the flow line of the bottom of the detention basin, except for the last 10 feet upstream from the outlet. The detention and public park area shall be landscaped with turf and other materials to the satisfaction of the Director of Community Development and the Director of Public Works.

20

Storm Drain Pipe System on Leisure Town Road: Along with the first phase (Phase 1) improvements, the Developer shall also design and construct the drainage system for the easterly half of Leisure Town Road across the Southtown Commons frontage. Storm water collected on Leisure Town Road shall be piped to Alamo Creek (SCWA encroachment required) or taken through the project to the detention basin. The Developer may, at his option, coordinate the drainage of the easterly half of Leisure Town Road with the developer of Southtown Development Phase 1A (responsible for the western half), to provide a common outfall to New Alamo Creek. Such combined system shall be subject to the approval of the City Engineer, and shall be required to be completed before occupancy of the first building unit in Southtown Commons. Storm Water Floodwall or Retaining Wall: The Developer shall design and construct a retaining wall that will keep overland release waters from the Southtown project located south of Southtown Commons out of the project site. The height of the required floodwall is estimated to be 3 to 4 feet, with a top elevation of approximately 89.30. Thus, a retaining wall/sound wall combination will be required along the entire south and east boundary lines of the project, from Leisure Town Road up to the railroad right-of-way and then north along the railroad to the New Alamo Creek right-of-way line. The floodwall and sound wall shall be required along with the improvements for Southtown Commons Phase 1, and shall be in place before occupancy of the first building unit. Storm Drain along New Alamo Creek Channel Access Road: The Tentative Map shows three small drains and outfalls along the access road for New Alamo Creek. The Developer may submit to the City Engineer and to Solano County Water Agency for their approval, an alternate storm drain plan for that area which would direct runoff to the detention basin, rather than directly into the creek channel. Water Quality Management: The Developer shall submit a plan for post-development storm water quality control for both the residential and for commercial properties within Southtown Commons. 64.

Solano County Water Agency (SCWA) Encroachment Permit Needed. The Developer shall secure and encroachment permit from SCWA for the construction of a twin 24” pipe outlet and associated discharge of storm waters from Southtown Commons detention basin into the New Alamo Creek storm channel as shown on the Tentative Map. This outfall shall be constructed before the occupancy of the first residential unit. The location of the outlet is near the upstream side of the railroad bridge over the New Alamo Creek channel.

All connections to existing sewer mains and manholes shall be in accordance with City of Vacaville standards, and the downstream connections shall be constructed and approved before the occupancy of any proposed residential building.

67.

Phased Infrastructure Sewer Lines. The following sewer lines are required to be constructed by the Southtown Commons Developer as part of the phased infrastructure improvements: a.

A 15” sanitary sewer crossing under New Alamo Creek is to be designed constructed with Southtown Phase 1A improvements by the developer of that project. If the crossing

21

is not constructed by that developer prior to approval of the Southtown Commons final map, then the Developer of Southtown must include the sewer creek crossing in his improvement plans and must complete the work. The crossing shall meet the requirements and specifications of the City of Vacaville and shall be approved by the City Engineer, and also shall be approved by Solano County Water Agency. An encroachment permit from SCWA will be required for the work. This crossing must be constructed and in service prior to the first building permit for Southtown Commons.

68.

b.

If not constructed by the developers of Southtown Development Phase 1A, the Developer shall design and construct approximately 1500 LF of 12” Sanitary Sewer Trunk Line from the existing CSP-S Sewer Line and bore and jack under New Alamo Creek, and then continuing east to the Southtown Commons Site as outlined in the final sewer study entitled “Southtown Project Sewer Plan Evaluation and CSP-S Trunk Sewer Service Area Master Plan”, by West Yost & Associates, dated July 29, 2005, (“Sewer Study”) and shall complete the work prior to occupancy of the first residential building, or as otherwise directed by the City Engineer, or the Director of Public Works.

c.

Unless otherwise fully funded, the Developer shall participate in the cost of upsizing approximately 7300 lineal feet of an existing CSP-S 27” SS to a 36” SS. Such improvement is shown in the Sewer Study for Southtown Commons as “Phase 1”, and corresponds to the portion of the line that runs from Point 1952 to 1835. This project would be installed under a City capital improvements project, funded largely from Sewer Impact Fees. This line would have to be in service before the issuance of the 771st building permit for the general Southtown service area.

d.

The Developer shall participate in the cost of upsizing approximately 1800 lineal of existing 24” SS to 27” SS (or greater). This line is shown in the said Sewer Study as “Phase 2” running between Point 1870 and Point 1873, and would have to in place before the issuance of the 1171st building permit for the general Southtown service area. This line shall be funded and built by the developers in the Southtown area, and the cost shall be shared through the formation of a benefit district based upon a “per unit” contribution.

e.

The Developer shall participate in the cost of upsizing approximately 1800 lineal of existing 27” SS to 30” SS (or greater). This line is shown in the Sewer Study as “Phase 3” running between Point 1873 and Point 1875, and shall be in place before the issuance of the 2351st building permit for the general Southtown service area. This project would be installed under a City capital improvements project, funded largely from Sewer Impact Fees.

Funds to be Advanced for Off-Site City Sanitary Sewer Improvements. In accordance with Section 5.S of the Development Agreement, the Developer shall advance funds to the City for certain off-site downstream sewer improvements, in the event that the City has not accumulated sufficient developer’s fees to cover such construction at the time needed for Southtown Development. Such funds will be reimbursed back to the Developer when the needed fees have been collected.

WATER 69.

Acquisition of Domestic Water Supply to Serve Project. Developer shall pay $1829 per dwelling unit as payment in full for the cost of acquiring additional domestic water to serve the residential uses as contemplated by the Project. This cost shall be in addition to the standard water service connection fee assessed by City at the issuance of a building permit.

70.

Acquisition of Public Water Well Site. Under Section 5.R of the Development Agreement, the Developer is obligated to dedicate a 1 acre well site within the Southtown Commons project. The City of Vacaville has recently determined that no suitable site exists within the project boundary. To meet the intent of the obligation under the Development Agreement, the Developer shall
