Emergency Shelters/Low Barrier Navigation Centers The City's Zoning Ordinance defines "homeless shelter" as housing with minimal supportive services for homeless persons that is limited to occupancy of six months or less (see California Health and Safety Code §50801(e)). Homeless or emergency shelters are allowed in the C -S Zoning District with a conditional use permit and in the Service Facilities (SF) Overlay District as a permitted use (approved ministerially with a zoning certificate) provided that all the requirements in Zoning Ordinance Chapter 18.82 are met (see Table C-6). The requirements in Chapter 18.82 include the following: • The number of beds shall not exceed 50. • The number of beds shall not exceed one bed for each 400 square feet of lot area. • One parking space for every four beds, plus one parking space for each employee on the largest shift, plus one space for each company vehicle. • No individual or family shall reside in a homeless shelter for more than 90 consecutive days. Extensions up to a total stay of 180 days may be provided if no alternative housing is available. • Homeless shelters must be more than 300 feet apart. The number of required parking spaces is lower compared to that required for hotels (i.e., one space per two beds) and for multi -family (see Tables C-4 and C-5). Therefore, these requirements are consistent with state law (Government Code §65583(a)(4)(A)). The SF Overlay District applies to six parcels in Pleasanton that are within the C -S Zoning District (see Table C-7), however three of the six sites have recently been developed. Three remaining parcels are vacant or are currently developed with structures that could reasonable be converted into a shelter facility. Each of the parcels is within one half mile of retail services or other supporting services that occupants of the shelter could utilize or may have a need for, such as grocery stores, clinics/hospitals, churches, schools, public transportation, etc. The surrounding uses are retail and auto service orientated businesses, and not heavy industrial operations. Additionally, the surrounding uses may offer potential of employment opportunities for those shelter occupants pursuing employment. While the City's zoning standards allows one bed per 400 square feet of lot area, the City conservatively assumed a rate of one bed per 600 square feet based on previous discussions with local emergency shelters. Considering these assumptions, the three potential sites could accommodate up to 129 emergency shelter beds. In 2021, the City estimated that there were 120 unsheltered homeless people in Pleasanton as a Point -in -Time (PIT) Count was not conducted in 2021 due to COVID-19 (see Table A-10).
