2013/10/24 Planning Commission Resolution (4)PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2013-25
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ROHNERT PARK, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING
APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO THE CITY OF ROHNERT PARK STADIUM
AREA MASTER PLAN FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN REFLECTING THE CHANGE
IN LAND USE FOR THE PUBLIC SAFETY FACILITY SITE
WHEREAS, the City of Rohnert Park has filed Planning Application No. PL2013-047
proposing amendments to the Stadium Area Master Plan Final Development Plan (SAMP) in
connection with a proposed amendment to the land use designation for the approximately 3.0
acre project site (a portion of APN: 143-040-124) located in the northwest portion of the City
(the "Project"); and
WHEREAS, the SAMP area is a City "PD" Planned Development Zoning District. The
SAMP, prepared in accordance with the City of Rohnert Park Zoning Code 17.06. Article VII,
provides the specific development standards for the 29.8 acres within the SAMP area; and
WHEREAS, the proposed amendments to the SAMP reflect the Project's proposed
change of the land use designation for the project site from its current designation, Commercial -
Regional, to Public/Institutional. The proposed amended SAMP is included as Exhibit 1; and
WHEREAS, the City has assessed the potential environmental impacts associated with
the Project, the City has prepared a Negative Declaration. The Planning Commission has
reviewed the Negative Declaration prepared for the Project; recommended its certification by the
City Council; and has otherwise carried out all requirements for the Project pursuant to CEQA;
and
WHEREAS, pursuant to California State Law and the RPMC, an eighth page public
hearing notice was published for a minimum of 10 days prior to the first public hearing in the
Community Voice; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the information
contained in the staff report and the SAMP amendment materials.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City
of Rohnert Park makes the following findings and determinations with respect to the proposed
amendments to the SAMP:
Section 1. The above recitations are true and correct.
Section 2. The Planning Commission recommends City Council approval of the
SAMP amendments, as shown in the amended SAMP attached to this Resolution as Exhibit 1.
Section 3. Findings. The Planning Commission makes the following findings
concerning the SAMP amendments proposed:
1. That the proposed SAMP amendments are consistent with the General Plan.
Criteria Satisfied. The proposed amendments to the SAMP would change the land
use designation of the site from Regional/Commercial to Public/Institutional. The
amendments to the SAMP would be consistent with the proposed amended General
Plan Diagram. The Project, including the SAMP amendments, would be consistent
with the General Plan and would result in an internally consistent General Plan.
2. That the proposed amendments to the SAMP will be beneficial to and not detrimental
to the public health, safety or welfare.
Criteria Satisfied. The proposed amendment to the General Plan Diagram would
change the land use designation of the site from Regional/Commercial to
Public/Institutional. The amended land use designation for the site would allow for
the future construction of the Northwest Public Safety Facility. Construction of the
future Public Safety facility would have a positive impact on public safety and fire
protection by supporting the City in attaining and maintaining its goal of a four
minute response time throughout the City, specifically in northwest Rohnert Park.
Therefore, the Project would be beneficial to and not detrimental to the public health,
safety or welfare.
3. That a duly noticed public hearing has been held to receive and consider public
testimony regarding the proposed amendments to the SAMP Final Development Plan.
Criteria Satisfied. A duly noticed public hearing on the proposed SAMP Final
Development Plan amendments was held on October 24, 2013.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the Planning
Commission that it does hereby recommend that the City Council adopt the Findings
hereinabove; adopt and amend the Stadium Area Master Plan Final Development Plan, as shown
in the amended Stadium Area Master Plan Final Development Plan attached to this
Resolution as Exhibit 1, in its entirety.
DULY AND REGULARLY ADOPTED on this 24th day of October 2013, by the

High Density Residential - 13.6 acres}
The General Plan High Density Residential designation accommodates residential
development at densities ranging from 12.1 to 24.0 units per gross acre and
accommodates a wide range of housing types, ranging from single family attached to
multifamily and is intended for specific areas where higher densities may be
appropriate.
Commercial -Regional - 125.7 acres}
The General Plan Commercial (Regional) designation is intended to provide sites for
retail areas containing a wide variety of businesses, including: retail stores, eating and
drinking establishments, commercial recreation, service stations, auto and repair
services, financial, business and personal services, hotels, motels, and educational and
social services. Residential uses may be conditionally permitted. The maximum FAR
is 1.5 for hotel/motel projects and 0.4 for all other uses. Shopping centers typically
provide department or big -box retailers which attract regional shoppers.
Neighborhood — oriented commercial uses may be limited within this designation.
Public/Institutional — 3.0 acres
The General Plan Public/Institutional designation provides for schools, government
offices, transit sites, and other facilities that have a unique public character, as well as
Sonoma State Universily. Religious facilities would be also en�nitted in this
designation. The Public/Institutional site within the Master Pian is intended for
construction of a City Public Safety facilites
Parks/Recreation - 0.5 acres}
The General Plan Parks/Recreation designation provides for active and passive parks
and recreational areas, recreation complexes, community fields, public golf courses,
stadiums, arboretums, and greenways. Ancillary facilities such as concession stands,
clubhouses, and equipment rental are also allowed. The City's General Plan land use
diagram is not parcel specific. Uses on sites which are less than one acre in size are
not depicted on the diagram. Future residential projects will be required to include
private or public recreational land consistent with City policies.
b. Proposed Zoning. The Zoning District for the SAMP site is "P -D" Planned
Development; however, the Zoning District standards which implement the
corresponding General Plan land use designation, as indicated in Table 1, shall
apply. For example:
The "R -H" (High Density Residential) zone shall apply to areas which are
designated by the General Plan as High Density Residential.

The "P -I" (Public Institutional) zone shall apply to areas which are designated by
the General Plan as Parks/Recreation and areas designated Public/Institutional.
4. Relationship of Existing and Proposed Land Uses to Surrounding
The 29.8 acre SAMP lies in the northwest corner of the City of Rohnert Park'. The
site is bounded to the north by several parcels of land which front onto Business Park
Drive; to the east by light industrial and office uses along Redwood Drive; Costco
and Ashley Furniture; to the south by Hinebaugh Creek; and to the west by Labath
Avenue. The existing land uses include industrial and public/institutional.
The boundary of the SAMP is somewhat irregular since in some cases it follows
public rights-of-way e.g., Labath, Carlson and Dowdell Avenues and in other cases it
follows parcel lines. The land to the north of the future extension of Carlson Avenue
comprises a contiguous (i.e. adjoining) parcel, as does the land south of Carlson; the
total property encompasses approximately 29.8 acres of land. The SAMP consists of
relatively flat land which is mostly undeveloped.
As illustrated in Figure �2, the Northwest Specific Plan and the Wilfred Dowdell
Specific Plan lie to the north of Business Park Drive and the proposed SAMP.
I,
Figure 32
Location Map
In arriving at a preferred development vision for the SAMP consideration was given
to several factors including location, access, parcel size and configuration, existing
land uses in the area, and market demands.
The area's designation as the "Stadium Area" refers to the stadium located within the planning area which
was the home of the now defunct Sonoma County Crushers baseball team. The developer has an option to
purchase the property from the City of Rohnert Park.

With regards to location and access, the SAMP is positioned adjacent to the Costco
operation which attracts customers from many of the nearby communities the
majority of whom arrive to the area via Highway 101. Because of the strong drawing
power of Costco, it is anticipated that additional retail/commercial activity could be
supported in the SAMP. Other existing land uses in the area, such as the Press
Democrat newspaper operation located to the northeast of the SAMP and the KRCB
Channel 22 public broadcast television station located north of Carlson Blvd., are
self-contained business destinations and therefore do not generate the type of
commercial traffic and attraction which Costco does. Other activities to the north of
Costco include the City of Rohnert Park's Animal Shelter and the City's wastewater
pumping station.
Based on recent discussions and studies concerning the potentials for development of
other land uses in the SAMP, which were conducted as part of the planning efforts in
preparing this plan, it is anticipated that the inventory of industrial space in the
Rohnert Park area is such that there will be little demand for such development for
the foreseeable future. On the other hand, demands for residential (rental) housing are
strong in Sonoma County, and elsewhere in Northern California, indicating that there
is potential for developing new dwelling units in the SAMP.
Based on the foregoing considerations and following the guidance provided by the
General Plan, the proposed development to be accommodated in the SAMP may be
characterized as having fours components: Regional Commercial, High Density
Residential, Public/Institutional, and Parks (see Figure -21).
The commercial uses are to be developed in roughly the southern half of the Zoning
District. This site has the potential for generating additional retail based on existing
commercial uses in the area including the Costco facility on the corner of Martin
Avenue and Redwood Drive and the other commercial uses which are next to U.S.
Highway 101, along Redwood Dr. This commercial area flanks the future extension
of Dowdell Avenue into this area and is accessible via Martin Avenue, a major
arterial which, via Redwood Dr. and Rohnert Park Expressway links the SAMP with
the freeway. Given the size of the parcel (about 15.7 acres with 12.7 designated for
commercial uses, it is anticipated that this site could accommodate a single large
retail facility or several smaller buildings.
The northwestern part of the SAMP property is envisioned to develop with high
density multifamily or single family (attached) residential units to the east and west
sides of the extension of Dowdell Avenue
The principal land uses to be developed within the SAMP are listed in Table 2.
