Contact: David Hung, Associate Planner, (916) , dhung@cityofsacramento.org; Evan Compton, Senior Planner, (916) , ecompton@cityofsacramento.org; Luis R. Sanchez, AIA, LEED AP, Senior Architect, (916) , lsanchez@cityofsacramento.org Applicant/Architect: Enterprise Holdings c/o Michael Davirro, (916) , 199 N. Sunrise Avenue, Dept. 9, Roseville, CA

2 Owner: Heng Lem, th Avenue, Sacramento, CA Architect: Betty Woo, (530) , 216 Lindo Place, Davis, CA Vicinity Map Summary: The applicant is proposing to establish an auto rental business on an approximately 0.36-acre parcel in the General Commercial (C-2) zone. The project requires a Conditional Use Permit to establish the proposed use on the site, and Site Plan and Design Review for renovations to the existing building and various site improvements. Staff sent early notification to community groups and adjacent property 2

3 owners within 300 feet radius of the site. Property owners within 300 feet of the site were also notified of the public hearing. Table 1: Project Information General Plan designation: Urban Corridor Low (minimum FAR 0.30) Design Review District: Central City Existing zoning of site: General Commercial (C-2) Previous use of site: Commercial (auto repair) Parking District: Urban Property area: approximately 0.36 acres Site Location Background Information: The subject building was constructed circa It was used as a service station until In 1987, the underground fuel storage tank and underground waste oil tank were removed. From 1990 to 1998 the building was used as an auto repair facility; subsequently the site was used for auto repair but not in a continuous manner. Due to ground contamination that occurred during earlier occupancies, remediation activity has been ongoing since On December 13, 2007, the Zoning Administrator approved with conditions a major modification to a deemed special permit to allow tire sales along with auto repair (Z07-058). The building is currently vacant. Since the site has been vacant for more than one year under a deemed special permit, any auto related use would require a new conditional use permit. 3

4 Public/Neighborhood Outreach and Comments: Staff routed the proposal to various advisory groups which included Greater Broadway Partnership, Sierra Curtis Neighborhood Association, Newton Booth Neighborhood Association, Sacramento Area Bicycle Advocates (SABA) and WalkSacramento. Staff also sent early notices to property owners within 300 feet radius of the site. As a result, staff has received a letter from an adjacent property owner who is not opposed to the project but wants assurance that the property owner is actively sampling the monitoring wells as part of the ongoing remediation (Attachment 2). Staff has corresponded with the Sacramento County Environmental Management Department (EMD), the local agency overseeing the remediation, which provided the following recommendations: Any new building construction shall have a vapor barrier. Any proposed destruction of monitoring wells shall receive the advance approval of the Sacramento County Environmental Management Department. Any contaminated soil that is encountered will be reported to and be subject to the direction and management of the Sacramento County Environmental Management Department. Staff has included the above measures as conditions of approval for the conditional use permit. Moreover, to minimize further contamination of the site, staff has added the following condition: The applicant shall use off-site fueling and repair facilities to service automobiles. Oil or petroleum substances shall be limited to incidental quantities, and the applicant shall comply with State law regarding the reporting and permitting of any reportable quantities of such materials. Staff believes that, with the inclusion of the above conditions, the project will address the concerns raised by the adjacent property owner. Environmental Considerations: The Community Development Department, Environmental Planning Services Division Manager has reviewed the project and the concerns raised about the remediation of the site. While the application as presented did not result in significant effects, the conditions identified above are consistent with the practice and responsibilities of the County EMD, and respond to concerns of neighbors regarding activities on the site. There will be less than significant environmental impacts as a result of the project. The Environmental Planning Services Division Manager has determined that the project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section number 15061(b)(3). The activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects, which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The Environmental Planning Services Division Manager has also determined that the project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section of the CEQA Guidelines, In-fill Development Projects. The project is consistent with the 4

5 applicable general plan designation and policies and zoning, occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses, and approval would not result in any significant effects relating to noise, traffic, air or water quality. The project has no habitat value for endangered, rare, or threatened species, and can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services. Policy Considerations: General Plan. The 2035 General Plan Update was adopted by City Council on March 3, The 2035 General Plan s goals, policies, and implementation programs define a roadmap to achieving Sacramento s vision to be the most livable city in America. The 2035 General Plan designation of the subject site is Urban Corridor Low, which provides for a mix of horizontal and vertical mixed-use development and single-use commercial and residential development. The use is permitted in the C-2 zone with a conditional use permit, and can be supported based on the following General Plan goals and policies: Policy LU Neighborhood Enhancement. The City shall promote infill development, reuse, rehabilitation, and reuse efforts that contribute positively to existing neighborhoods and surrounding areas. Staff finds that the proposed project includes improvements to the existing building and site that will remove blight and contribute to the enhancement of the existing commercial corridor. Goal LU 6.1 Corridors. Support the development of major circulation corridors that balance their vehicular function with a vibrant mix of uses that contribute to meeting local and citywide needs for retail, services, and housing and provide pedestrianfriendly environments that serve as gathering places for adjacent neighborhoods. Staff finds that the proposal is appropriately located on a major circulation corridor and will meet the auto rental needs of the community. The proposed project meets the above 2035 General Plan goals and policies related to the Urban Corridor Low land use designation and will provide auto rental services to the surrounding community. Central City Community Plan. The Central City Community Plan area is the core of the city of Sacramento. Commercial and retail uses are distributed throughout the city grid. The proposal supports the goals and polices of the Central City Community Plan in that it contributes to the provision of commercial services on the Broadway Corridor and is compatible with surrounding uses. 200-Year Flood Protection. State Law (SB 5) and Planning and Development Code chapter require that the City must make specific findings prior to approving certain entitlements for projects within a flood hazard zone. The purpose is to ensure that new development will have protection from a 200-year flood event or will achieve that protection by The project site is within a flood hazard zone and is an area covered by SAFCA s Improvements to the State Plan of Flood Control System, and specific findings related to the level of protection have been incorporated as part of this 5

6 project. Even though the project site is within a flood hazard zone, the local flood management agency, SAFCA, has made adequate progress on the construction of a flood protection system that will ensure protection from a 200-year flood event or will achieve that protection by This is based on the SAFCA Urban level of flood protection plan, adequate progress baseline report, and adequate progress toward an urban level of flood protection engineer s report that were accepted by City Council Resolution No on June 21, Project Design: Conditional Use Permit- Auto Rental The project involves the adaptive re-use of an existing commercial structure and the onsite parking lot for an auto rental business. The building, approximately 3,510 square feet in size, was previously used for auto repair/service shop. The parking lot will be used for inventory parking (15 stalls proposed), customer parking (3 stalls proposed), and employee parking (4 stalls proposed). The facility will operate from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday to Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Saturday. The business will not operate on Sunday. Uses in the immediate vicinity of the project site include a mix of restaurants, retail and offices fronting on Broadway and residential uses on streets intersecting Broadway. The following special use regulations per section of the planning and development code apply to an auto rental use: a) Outdoor storage. Outdoor storage of any inventory or supplies in view of any public right-of-way is prohibited, except for auto and mobile home sales, rental, and storage uses. Outdoor storage or parking of vehicles overnight for auto service or repair uses is prohibited. Staff comment: Other than the parking of rental vehicles on the site, no outdoor storage of equipment or material will be allowed. b) Operating standards. Auto service or repair work performed within 300 feet of property used or zoned for residential purposes shall not be conducted before 6:00 a.m. or after 10:00 p.m. All such work shall be performed within a building. Staff comment: Auto service or repair work is not approved as part of this application; additional review and approval will be required for any auto service or repair work. Staff supports the auto rental use at this site because it is located along Broadway which is a commercial corridor, will operate within an existing building, and allows for the reuse of a blighted, vacant building. Site Plan and Design Review The project requires the approval of Site Plan and Design Review for renovations to an existing 3,510 square-foot building and site improvement. Following is a discussion on 6

7 the site access and parking, building height and setback, building design, landscaping and fencing, and signage. Proposed Site Plan Site Access, Circulation and Parking The site is bounded by Broadway on the north, 27 th Street to the east, residential use to the south, and commercial parking lot to the west. There are currently two driveways on Broadway and one on 27 th Street. The eastern driveway on Broadway is proposed to be eliminated, while the western driveway will be gated. Since the proposed gate does not have the required 20-foot setback from the right-of-way, the applicant is required to apply for a variance through Public Works to allow the gates to be at the back of walk. If the variance is approved, the gate must remain open during business hours. There are existing sidewalks at the street frontages on Broadway and 27 th Street, and on-street parking is available in front of the site. New bicycle racks are shown on the northwest corner. Following is a summary of the parking analysis for the project: 7

8 Table 2: Parking Analysis (Urban District) Type Required Parking Proposed Parking Vehicle 2 (based on 1 space per 2,000 gross square feet of building) 22 spaces total for inventory, customers, and employees Bicycle 2 (long term); 2 (short term) 5 short-term bike racks; condition for long-term parking As shown above, the project will meet vehicular and bicycle parking requirement as proposed and as conditioned. Building Height, Setbacks There are no changes to the existing building height or setbacks. Building Design The existing structure is located at the southwest corner of the site. The front of the building faces Broadway, whereas the side and rear walls of the building are located on property lines. There will be no expansion to the existing building. The project will retain three of the existing bays and roll up doors at the front. The remaining bay, as well as a boarded up storefront, will be retrofitted with new black-colored aluminum storefront units. The front wall will be finished with stucco and stone veneer wainscot with a moulding strip. The project also provides a new fascia on the front wall with crown moulding as an architectural enhancement. The floor plan shows a wash-bay, a customer service area, an office space, a breakroom and a restroom. Staff supports the design because the project is consistent with the Central City Design Guidelines which includes the following guidelines: Building orientation to the public street with storefronts/entry facing street. Incorporate level of detail that is typical of well-designed buildings in the surrounding area. Incorporate complementary materials of the highest quality, with material textures and colors selected to further articulate the building design. Broadway Elevation 8

9 Landscaping and Fencing The perimeter of the two street frontages will be upgraded with a continuous planter and landscaping. The applicant, in consultation with Public Works and Urban Forest, has agreed to increase the width of street tree planters along Broadway. Given the limited space in the public right of way, the owner has agreed to record an easement agreement to allow a portion of the public sidewalk on the subject property. The applicant is also adding new trees and planters in the existing parking lot to increase shading. Staff supports the increase in the width of street tree planters which will enhance the pedestrian experience around the site and will also benefit the future health of existing street trees to be retained. There is an existing masonry wall at the south property line adjacent to the parking lot, to separate the commercial use from the adjacent residential use to the south. New metal fencing with a sliding gate is proposed along the Broadway frontage. Signage Final signage approval is not part of this application. The proposed elevations show new attached signs on the new fascia on the building. The city code allows two attached signs per public street frontage with up to three square feet per linear foot of building frontage of sign area in the C-2 zone. The city code also allows a detached sign and staff recommends any future detached sign be a monument type. Any new signage shall require the issuance of a sign permit prior to fabrication or installation, and the sign shall comply with criteria in the C-2 zone or further entitlements will be required. Recommendation: Staff recommends the Commission approve the requested entitlements based on the findings and subject to the conditions listed in Attachment 1. Staff supports the project because it meets all of the required findings. In particular, the project: a) is consistent with the General Plan Designation of Urban Corridor Low and the General Commercial (C-2) zone which allows for an auto rental business with the approval of a conditional use permit; b) conducts its operations within an existing building; and c) includes improvements to the building façade, and site work to increase the area devoted to landscaping, consistent with the Urban Form Guidelines in the General Plan. 9
