The above recitations are true and correct. Section 2. The Planning Commission has determined that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under the General Rule exemption. Section 3. Findings of Fact. The Planning Commission hereby makes the following findings concerning amendments to the Municipal Code: 1. That the proposed amendments to the municipal code are consistent with General Plan 2020. Criteria Satisfied. The proposed amendments are consistent with the following specific provisions of General Plan 2020: a. Goal LU -C. Provide for concentrations of activity and mixed-use and pedestrian -oriented development in selected areas. b. Policy CD -56. As part of the Zoning Ordinance, maintain development standards for all development within commercial districts that include, but are not limited to: • Maximum setbacks from the front lot -line; • Maximum length of the front lot line that can be used as the edge of a parking lot; • Landscaping requirements; • Design standards for parking lots, including landscaping and buffering; • Required orientation of main entrances to the street; • Building transparency and pedestrian comfort; • Signage requirements; and • Height, overall size, materials, lighting, and location. c. Policy OS -17. Ensure that parks and recreation facilities are safe secure areas. The purpose of the proposed amendments to the municipal code are to ensure that certain land uses does not detract from the pedestrian oriented, mixed use and high quality urban environment that the city is seeking to create within its neighborhoods and commercial centers. Placing reasonable restrictions on development will help create more desirable commercial center over time. Particularly important is to protect park and recreation facilities from commercial uses that may have negative impact on and potentially detract from the quiet enjoyment of these facilities. Particular attention is paid to places where children may congregate, such as schools, daycares, and parks. It is also assumed that families will visit Rohnert Park shopping areas, so it is important that within these commercial centers, protections are in place from potential negative impacts. 2. That the proposed amendment to the Municipal Code will be beneficial to the public health, safety or welfare. Criteria Satisfied. The proposed amendments will benefit the public by create protection from certain land uses that may have visual, noise, traffic and/or public safety (e.g. crime) impact. Land use regulations, development standards, locational limits and licensing requirements have been devised to minimize these impacts as much as possible. In addition to new licensing requirements, location limits have been place on Adult Businesses to ensure that a separation exists between Adult Business operations and sensitive uses. Section 4. A duly noticed public hearing concerning the proposed amendments was held by the Planning Commission on April 9, 2015. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does hereby recommend that the City Council adopt Findings stated herein and adopt ordinances amending the RPMC to amend Title 17 (Zoning), section 17.04.040 (Definitions of words and terms), section 17.06.060 (Permitted uses [commercial]), section 17.06. 100 (Permitted uses [industrial]), and 17.07.020 (Footnotes) as provided in Exhibit A; to amend Title 8 (Health and Safety), Chapter 8.36 (Massage Business and Establishments, Massage Providers, and Massage Therapists), Chapter 8.37 (Adult Business Permit), Chapter 8.38 (Adult Business Performers License) and Chapter 8.39 (Adult Business — Locations) as provided in Exhibit B; and amend Title 9 (Public Peace, Morals and Welfare), to delete chapter 9.80 (Massage Establishments) as provided in Exhibit C.

Background In connection with the construction of the Graton Resort and Casino, Rohnert Park has undertaken to study and amend City codes to address impacts that may arise with certain land uses/businesses that choose to locate within the community. City staff has been working to research the issues related to these matters and to prepare draft code language to bring before the Planning Commission and City Council. On July 23, 2013 the City Council approved a temporary moratorium on new permits for the following uses pending completion of this work: adult entertainment businesses, check cashing/payday loan businesses, pawn shops, cyber cafes, and electronic message boards, and on August 27, 2013 an extension of these moratoria was approved. On August 27, 2013, a temporary moratorium was approved for non -certified massage establishments, and an extension of this moratorium was approved on September 24, 2013. During the course of preparation of implementing ordinances, two workshops with the City Council were held to discuss approaches to these issues, on November 12, 2013, and March 10, 2015. The proposed code language incorporates direction from the City Council from these workshops. Two moratorium items require significant new/revised code language: Adult Businesses: Adult businesses are protected under the First Amendment of the Unites States and California Constitutions. It is not within the purview of a local jurisdiction to ban these businesses entirely. The proposed chapters provide for the establishment of an adult business permit, adult business performer license, and regulation of the operations of and locational criteria for adult businesses. Adult businesses, which previously were restricted to the Regional Commercial (C-R) zone with required separation from sensitive uses, would henceforth be restricted to the Industrial (IL) zone, with a required separation from sensitive uses. Massage Businesses and Massage Providers: State law regarding massage and its practice has changed significantly in recent years. Under current law, local governments have regulatory control over most aspects of the business of providing massage through land use and business licensing requirements, while the practice of massage therapy in terms of education, training, and certification continues to be primarily governed by the California Massage Therapy Council (CAMTC), a State -created nonprofit organization. The proposed chapter provides land use and operational requirements on massage establishments within the City, including requiring massage providers be certified by the State, and that massage businesses obtain a business license and comply with various facility requirements (e.g., lighting, storage and disposal of linens and towels) and Page 2 operational requirements (e.g., sanitary and hygiene, restrictions on the use of locked doors). In the course of study of the land uses and related issues, it was determined that only minor changes were necessary to address the following: Pawn Shops: State law provides adequate tools for the regulation of Pawn Shops and the current zoning regulations and allowable zones are adequate. The Public Safety Department is in the process of formulating administrative procedures to implement State law regarding Pawn Shops. A minor code amendment is proposed to add a definition of Pawn Shops as this use is not currently defined in the zoning code. • Payday Loan Establishments and Check Cashing Stores. It was further determined that minor changes to regulations related to Payday Loan Establishments and Check Cashing Stores are needed to provide a definition of these business types and to add these land uses type to the list of permitted uses in the Regional Commercial (C-R) zoning district. • Car Title Loan Establishments. While not a moratorium issue, this matter also received study and it was determined that minor changes to regulation related to Car Title Loan Establishments are needed to provide a definition of this business type and add this land use to the list of conditionally permitted uses in the Regional Commercial (C-R) zoning district. Certain moratorium items were deemed not to require further action, as follows: • Electronic Message Boards: The City Council determined that the current regulations, which restrict these type of signs to publicly owned parcels adjacent to the State freeway, were sufficient and do not require changes. • Cyber -cafes: The City Attorney determined that regulation of Cyber -cafes has been resolved by State legislation and no further action is needed. • Card Rooms: While not a moratorium issue, this matter also received study. The City Attorney determined that regulation of Card Rooms is preempted by State law and no further action is needed. Proposal To address the issues described above, Staff proposes the following specific changes to the Municipal Code: • Adult Businesses: Add new Chapters 8.37, 8.38, and 8.39 to regulate this area and make coordinating amendments to the zoning title. • Massage Establishments and Massage Providers: Replace existing Chapter 9.80 with new Chapter 8.36 to regulate this area and make coordinating amendments to the zoning title Page 3 • Pawn Shops: Amend the zoning title to provide a definition for this use. The Municipal Code currently has effective regulations relating to this use and Public Safety staff is refining administrative procedures to conform with State law. • Payday Loan Establishments, Check Cashing Stores, and Car Title Loan Establishments: Amend the zoning title to provide definitions for these use types and specify the zone in which they are permitted. Staff Analysis The following is a brief analysis of the changes that are proposed to address moratorium issues. The recommend Municipal Code amendments would add new chapters to comprehensively address the regulation of Adult Businesses, providing definitions, operational regulations and permit/licensing provisions, and provisions requiring separation of these businesses from sensitive uses including places of religious worship and uses serving groups of children such as parks, schools, and child care facilities. The amendments would result in the addition of Chapters 8.37, Adult Business Permit, 8.38, Adult Business Performer License, and 8.39, Adult Businesses – Locations. Adult Business would be confined to the IL zone and require a separation of 1000 feet from the sensitive uses enumerated in the code. An important consideration in preparation of Adult Business regulations is that this type of business may not be completely excluded from the community, either directly by an outright ban or indirectly by regulations with have the effect of removing all sites form consideration. The proposed regulations and specifically the separation form sensitive uses reflect this consideration. Attached Figure 1 depicts the potential parcels on which this type of business would be allowed to operate with the proposed code requirements. The recommended code amendments would add Chapter 8.36, Massage Regulations (and delete Chapter 9.80, the current chapter that addressing this topic). The massage regulations have been comprehensively rewritten and moved to a more appropriate title of the code. The new 'regulations reflect recent changes to State law and take advantage of the creation of a State -level organization, the CAMTC, to provide certification of Massage Providers. A key provision includes a requirement that all Massage Providers be certified by the CAMTC (with provision for a grace period to allow for any providers currently licensed to provide this service in the City but not yet certified to obtain this certification). The new ordinance also regulates the operation of Massage Businesses and sets forth operational requirements. Within the zoning title of the Municipal Code several existing chapters would be amended. Chapter 17.04 (Zoning Code—Definitions) would be amended to reflects the new provisions as to adult businesses and massage. It would also be amended to include definitions for four types of businesses not previously defined: Pawn Shops, Payday Loan Establishments, Check Cashing Stores, and Car Title Loan Establishments. Finally, Chapter 17.04 would be amended to revise the definition of Banks/Savings and Loan/Credit Unions and clarify that this use does not include Page 4 Pawn Shops, Payday Loan Establishments, Check Cashing Stores, or Car Title Loan Establishments. Chapter 17.06 (Zoning Code—Land Use Regulations), would be amended to remove Adult Businesses from the C-R zone and allows them only as a conditional use in the IL zone (consistent with the new Chapters 8.37, 8.38, and 8.39). It would also be amended to revise references to massage regulations to refer to new Chapter 8.36, and no change is proposed to the zones in which Massage Businesses are permitted. Finally, Chapter 17.06 would be amended to allow Payday Loan and Check Cashing establishments as a permitted use in the C-R zone, and Car Title Loan Establishments as a conditional use in the C-R zone. Chapter 17.07 (Zoning Code—Footnotes) would be amend to remove specific regulation of Adult Businesses from the zoning title of the Municipal Code and reference the new Chapters 8.37, 8.3 8, and 8.39. Environmental Determination The proposed action is approval of a set of amendments to zoning and related Municipal Code sections providing for regulation of certain land uses, but not proposing or approving any specific land use. As such, this project is deemed to be exempt under CEQA's General Rule as articulated in Guidelines section 15061 (b) (3) in that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment. Findings The recommended findings for approval of the proposed changes to the Municipal Code are included in the attached resolution. Public Notification A public hearing notice denoting the time, date, and location of this hearing was published in the Community Voice on Friday, March 27.

Social security number. 8. Satisfactory written proof that the license applicant is at least 18 years of age. 9. The license applicant's fingerprints on a form provided by the city and two passport -size photographs clearly showing the applicant's face. Any fees for the photographs and fingerprints will be paid by the applicant. Fingerprints and photographs must be taken within 6 months of the date of application. 10. Whether the applicant, has pled guilty, nolo contendere or been convicted of an offense classified by this or any other state as a sex-related offense within 5 years since the date of conviction or the date of release from confinement of conviction to the date of application, whichever is the later date. 11. If the application is made for the purpose of renewing a license, the applicant must attach a copy of the license to be renewed. (d) The information provided above in subsection (c) which is personal, private, confidential or the disclosure of which could expose the applicant to the risk of harm including, but not limited to, the applicant's residence address, telephone number, date of birth and age, driver's license and social security number will not be disclosed provided such nondisclosure is in accordance with the California Public Records Act. (e) The completed application must be accompanied by a non-refundable application fee and annual license fee. The amount of such fees will be as set forth in the schedule of fees established by city council resolution. (f) The director will determine whether the application is complete within 2 business days. If the director determines that the application is incomplete, the director must immediately inform the applicant of such fact and the reasons therefor, including any additional information necessary to render the application complete. Upon receipt of a completed adult business performer application, the director will, within 2 business days, issue a temporary license that will automatically expire 30 business days from the date of issuance unless extended as provided in Section 8.38.040(d). This temporary adult business performer license authorizes a performer to commence performance at an adult business that possesses a valid adult business permit authorized to provide adult live entertainment. (h) The fact that a license applicant possesses other types of state or city permits or licenses does not exempt the license applicant from the requirement of obtaining an adult business performer license. 8.38.040 - Investigation and action on license application. (a) Upon submission of a completed application and issuance of a temporary adult business performer license, the director will promptly cause the investigation of the information contained in the application to determine whether the applicant should be issued an adult business performer license. (b) The director's decision to grant or deny the adult business performer license must be made within 30 business days from the date the temporary license was issued. If the application is denied, the director must include a written statement of the reasons for the denial. Such notice must also advise the applicant of the right to appeal the denial under Section 8.38.060. If the application is granted, the director will attach the adult business performer license to the notice. The decision will be mailed or personally delivered to the applicant at the address provided in the application. (c) The director may deny the application based on any of the following grounds: I. The applicant has made any false, misleading, or fraudulent statement of material fact in the application for an adult business performer license. 2. The applicant is under 18 years of age. 3. The adult business performer license is to be used for performing in a business prohibited by laws of the state or city or at a business that does not have a valid adult business permit. 4. The occurrence of any of the events set forth in Section 8.38.030(c)(10). (d) If the director fails to render a decision on the license within the time frame established by this section, the application will be deemed approved, subject to an appeal under Section 8.38.060. (e) Each adult business performer license, other than the temporary license described in Section 8.38.030(f), will expire 1 year from the date of issuance and may be renewed only by filing with the director a written request for renewal, accompanied by the annual license fee and a copy of the license to be renewed at least 30 days prior to the expiration of the license. If the application conforms to the previously approved application and there has been no change with respect to the licensee being convicted of any crime classified by this or any other state as a sex-related offense, and no evidence that the licensee has failed to comply with any of the operating standards of chapter 8.37 applicable to a performer or the requirements of this chapter, the director will renew the license for 1 year. An application for renewal will be acted upon in the same manner as the application for the original license. If the director denies renewal of the application, that decision is also appealable under Section 8.38.060. 8.38.050 - Revocation of license. (a) A license may be revoked, based on any of the following causes arising from the acts or omissions of the licensee: 1. The licensee has made any false, misleading, or fraudulent statement of material fact in the application for a performer license. 2. The licensee has pled guilty, nolo contendere or been convicted of an offense as set forth in Section 8.38.030(c)(10). 3. The licensee has failed to comply with any of the operating standards of chapter 8.37 applicable to a performer or the requirements of this chapter. (b) On determining that grounds for license revocation or suspension exist, the director will furnish written notice of the proposed action to the licensee. Such notice will set forth the time and place of a hearing before the director or a hearing officer, the grounds, including the factual matters, in support of such proposed action, and the pertinent code sections. The notice will be mailed, postage prepaid, to the last known address of the licensee, or personally delivered to the licensee, at least 10 days prior to the hearing date. (c) At the hearing, the licensee will have the right to offer testimonial, documentary, and tangible evidence bearing upon the issues. The director or hearing officer will not be bound by the formal rules of evidence. Any hearing under this section may be continued for a reasonable time for the convenience of a party or a witness at the request of the licensee. (d) After the hearing, the director or hearing officer will either sustain or overrule the decision of the director and render a written decision within 2 business days of the hearing. The decision will be sent by certified mail to the applicant or licensee. The decision of the director or hearing officer must include reference to the right to prompt judicial review under California Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.8. (e) The action by the director or hearing officer will be final unless timely judicial review is sought pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.8. 8.38.060 - Appeals. (a) Any interested person may appeal a decision of the director regarding an application for an adult business performer license by filing with the city clerk a complete notice of appeal within 15 days from the date notice of such decision is mailed. To be deemed complete, the appeal must be in writing, state the grounds for disagreement with the director's stated decision, include the address to which notice is to be mailed, be signed under penalty of perjury, and be accompanied by the filing fee established by city council resolution. (b) If an appeal is timely filed, a hearing officer will hear the appeal. (c) The hearing officer must set a hearing date not more than 21 days from the date of the filing of the appeal. The hearing may be continued for good cause. (d) The hearing officer will issue findings in writing within 5 days of the conclusion of the hearing. The written findings and decision will be sent by certified mail to the appellant. The notice of the decision must include reference to the appellant's right to prompt judicial review under California Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.8. (e) The action by the hearing officer will be final unless timely judicial review is sought pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.8. 8.38.070 - License identification cards. The director will provide each adult business performer whose application is approved with an identification card containing the name, address, photograph, and license number of such performer. Every performer must have such card available for inspection at all times during which the performer is on the premises of the adult business at which he or she performs. 8.38.080 - Adult business performer license non -transferable. No adult business performer license may be sold, transferred, or assigned by any licensee or by operation of law, to any other person. Any such sale, transfer, or assignment, or attempted sale, transfer, or assignment will be deemed to constitute a voluntary surrender of the adult business performer license, and the license thereafter will be void. 8.38.090 - Violations. (a) Any licensee violating any of the provisions of this chapter or the provisions of chapter 8.37 regulating adult business performers will be subject to license revocation, and any and all other civil remedies. All remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive. Any such violation will constitute a separate violation for each and every day during which such violation is committed or continued. (b) The regulations imposed under this chapter are part of a regulatory licensing process, and violations of this chapter do not constitute a criminal offense. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Rohnert Park Municipal Code, the city does not impose a criminal penalty for violations of the provisions of this chapter related to "expressive activities."
