TTACHMEif 3 C P16-1418, Zoning Code Update EX f " T Work session to consider an amendment to the Pleasanton Municipal Code to update and simplify the list of permitted and conditionally permitted land uses, establish a Minor Conditional Use Permit process for routine uses, reflect current practices, modify review procedures, replace out-of-date references, and undertake other changes to make the Code more user-friendly Shweta Bonn presented the staff report and described the scope and key elements of the proposal Commissioner Balch Quick question about the noticed radius So 300 feet is what we're currently doing for minor CUPs right now or is it 500 feet? Bonn Minor CUPs don't exist in the code at all For Conditional Use Permits we notice 1,000 feet because it comes to the Planning Commission Commissioner Balch Okay, I apologize I don't know where it fits in So with my beekeeping application, what was the radius that that was? Bonn I believe beekeeping applications are also 300 feet or 500 feet, I'd have to double check but I don't believe they're a 1,000 feet CUPs, because they specifically come to the Planning Commission, are noticed to a 1,000 foot radius Commissioner Balch So I just ask, the 300-foot radius is basically consistent with what the City's doing at this level and then they have other level for greater radius is what I hear Weinstein So it's a new process, right, so we're trying to figure out what is the appropriate radius to send notices out to, and the rationale here is that these minor CUP projects are routine in nature They have typically standard performance criteria we can apply to them to reduce neighborhood impacts and so the net result of that is that there shouldn't be a lot of spillover impacts into the greater neighborhood and to us that's what supports a substantially reduced radius from 1,000 feet to 300 feet, 1,000 feet for CUPs to 300 feet for this minor CUP But if you have comments on whether that should be expanded or detracted, we're happy to hear them Chair Ritter Questions? Commissioner Balch So I guess the question is, right, given the current approval levels you have in the City, what are your radius levels now You have 1,000 feet I know and we've heard that we don't want to reduce it to the statutory 500 feet required because it's basically a City process or a procedure forever that that is the radius we notice, right? Beaudin So I'm not going to be able to answer your question directly The statutory requirement is 300 feet and so we here in Pleasanton have decided to notice 1,000 feet for CUPs I don't know the answer on if we're doing 500 feet or 1,000 feet on Zoning Administrator level approvals right now Kendall may know because she does all of the noticing for us Do you know what the radius for the legal notice is?
