Rekhi Use Permit (UP1916) and Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA1935) Page 1 Planning Commission Supplemental Staff Report May 20, 2020

Background On April 15, 2020, the Siskiyou County Planning Commission considered the Rekhi Use Permit (UP1916) and Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA1935) for a proposed short-term vacation rental use of an existing single-family dwelling, and a boundary line adjustment to transfer 0.02 acres between two parcels. At that meeting, staff presented an overview of the project. The Planning Commission heard comments from members of the public as well as from the applicant and the applicant’s representative. After the Public Hearing was closed, and upon further discussion by the Commission, a motion was unanimously passed to continue the hearing to the May 20, 2020 Planning Commission meeting in order to allow staff time to research why a proposed vacation rental in the vicinity of the Rekhi property was purportedly denied a use permit.

Analysis On October 2, 2002, at a regular meeting of the Siskiyou County Planning Commission, Commissioners McCoy, Stevens, and Lewis heard a proposal for a Use Permit (UP02-18) to utilize a single-family residence as a vacation rental. Commissioners Hart and Lazaris were absent from the meeting. The project was located at 2111 Pine Grove Drive, Mt. Shasta, on APN: 036-080-400, which is the same parcel that is part of the proposed boundary line adjustment portion of this project. A public comment letter was read that was from adjacent and local owners who opposed the project. Per the minutes of the meeting, the concerns they cited were regarding traffic, parking, noise, and neighborhood degradation. The project was unanimously approved and determined to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) by the three commissioners who were present.

The approval of the project was appealed by opponents of the project and heard at the November 12, 2002 Board of Supervisors (BOS) meeting. After an overview of the proposed project and letters of support were read by staff, the public hearing was opened, and multiple individuals spoke in favor or against the project. Discussion was held by the BOS regarding vacation rentals throughout Siskiyou County and the number of residents near the project site. After discussion, a motion was passed and Supervisors Erickson, Hoy, Overman, Smith, and Marsh unanimously approved the appeal of the Planning Commission’s approval and overturned the decision of the Planning Commission. The Board also directed staff to provide a “Findings Resolution”.

According to BOS minutes, the Resolution for the successful appeal was discussed several months later at the March 25, 2003 BOS meeting. Staff provided an overview of the proposed Resolution and a discussion followed regarding vacation rentals throughout the county. Planning Staff advised the board that issues regarding vacation rentals would be on the BOS agenda in the near future. The Resolution was passed by the BOS with Supervisors Overman, Hoy, and Erickson voting yes, Supervisor Armstrong abstaining, and Supervisor Smith being absent.

Vacation rentals were on the agenda for the April 1, 2003 BOS, but after limited discussion, was continued to the April 8, 2003 meeting due to time constraints. Discussion only was held during the April 8, 2003 BOS meeting. Planning Staff provided the Board with options regarding vacation rentals and answered questions. Multiple members of the public spoke, and Supervisors discussed the issues brought up, including limiting the placement of vacation rentals. On July 1, 2003, Planning Staff presented the Board with a proposed Resolution which established policies for the administration of new vacation rental proposals within the City of Mt. Shasta’s sphere of influence. Supervisor Erickson supported the Resolution and advised that most Mt. Shasta area residents are pleased with the

Rekhi Use Permit (UP1916) and Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA1935) Page 2 Planning Commission Supplemental Staff Report May 20, 2020

proposal. After further discussion, Resolution 03-121 was unanimously adopted, limiting new vacation rentals in the City of Mt. Shasta sphere of influence to parcels with a minimum of 2.5 acres.

On March 20, 2019, two Mt. Shasta area short-term vacation rental use permits that were proposed for parcels of less than 2.5 acres were presented to the Planning Commission. Discussion was held regarding Resolution 03-121 not being codified. Planning Staff was directed to get clarification from the BOS regarding the Resolution and suggest that the Resolution either be rescinded or codified. Planning Staff provided an overview of the request to the BOS on April 2, 2019. Upon conclusion of the public comments and discussion by Supervisors, Staff was directed to develop an ordinance to codify the language in Resolution 03-121, only as it relates to parcel size. The language in the Resolution related to neighboring property notification and larger newspaper advertisements was not to be codified.

Zone Text Amendment Z1905, which proposed a Combining District within the boundaries of the City of Mt. Shasta sphere of influence limiting vacation rentals to parcels that are a minimum of 2.5 acres, was presented by staff to the Planning Commission on May 15, 2019 and to the BOS at the Board’s June 4, 2019 meeting. The Planning Commission unanimously voted at their meeting to not recommend the BOS approve Z1905. The BOS came to a consensus and directed the Planning Department to move forward with the codification of the portion of Resolution 03-121 with regard to parcel size. A public hearing for the first reading of the ordinance was held on July 2, 2019. After comments were heard from the public and discussion was held, Supervisors unanimously voted, with Supervisor Nixon absent, to introduce, waive, and approve the first reading of the ordinance. The second reading of the ordinance was heard on August 6, 2019. No public comments were received, and after a brief discussion, the Supervisors unanimously voted to introduce, waive, and approve the second reading of the ordinance. The 2.5-acre minimum parcel size for vacation rentals within the City of Mt. Shasta sphere of influence was codified as Ordinance Number 19-09 on August 6, 2019.

Discussion Vacation rentals are an allowed use with the issuance of a use permit and subject to specific conditions. After the successful appeal of the vacation rental use permit (UP 02-18) at 2111 Pine Grove Drive in Mt. Shasta, three additional Board of Supervisor discussions were held during regularly scheduled meetings regarding vacation rentals in general, and the Mt. Shasta sphere of influence in particular. The discussions resulted in the additional condition of a minimum parcel size of 2.5 acres for new vacation rentals in the Mt. Shasta sphere of influence as written in Resolution 03-121. That condition was codified in 2019. As 2111 Pine Grove Drive is only approximately 1.36 acres in size, a vacation rental is not an allowed use for that property. Should the boundary line adjustment proposed as part of this project be approved, the 1714 Highland Drive property would then meet the minimum parcel size required for vacation rentals in the Mt. Shasta sphere of influence and would be an allowed use on that property.

During the April 15, 2020 Planning Commission meeting, discussion was also held regarding the discharge of firearms at the proposed vacation rental. The Siskiyou County Sheriff’s Department was contacted regarding calls for service from or about the property. On December 24, 2019 they received a disturbing the peace call. The noise was described as sounding like a shotgun, fireworks, or a deer rifle. The patrol officer was unable to locate. Staff discussed the report of gunfire with the applicant. They were aware of the concerns as they had maintained correspondence sent from a neighbor on the day in question. The applicant identified that he had cameras at the house and after review, the sounds

were coming from an off-site property. In addition, The applicant agrees to a condition of approval being added that would prohibit the discharge of firearms on the property while in use as a vacation rental.

Comments Public Comments Two neighbors have provided new comments. Ms. Julia DeVore, who resides across the street from 2111 Pine Grove Drive, submitted a comment opposing vacation rentals on either of the subject parcels due to it being a rural and residential area. Ms. Charlotte Tharp, who resides in the property adjacent to 1714 Highland Drive, submitted a comment stating that she has no objections.

Planning Staff Recommendations • Determine the project Categorically Exempt subject to the findings in Exhibit “A-2”. • Approve the Use Permit (UP1916) and Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA1935) subject to the findings in Exhibit “A-2” and conditions of approval listed in Exhibit “A-1”.

Suggested Motion I move that we adopt Resolution PC-2020-010, A Resolution of the Planning Commission of the County of Siskiyou, State of California, Approving the Rekhi Use Permit (UP1916) and Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA1935).

Findings

General Plan Consistency Findings Map 3: Building Foundation Limitations

Policy 8 – Enforce building construction standards (uniform building code) and public works requirements.

No new development is proposed as part of this project. The existing dwelling passed inspection by the Building Division of the Siskiyou County Community Development Department to verify that the structure meets building construction standards. Although no development is proposed as part of this project, all future development will be required to meet building construction standards and public works requirements.

Map 11: Woodland Productivity

Policy 32 – Single family residential, light commercial, light industrial, open space, non-profit and non- organizational in nature recreational uses, commercial/recreational uses, and public or quasi-public uses only may be permitted. The permitted uses will not create erosion or sedimentation problems.

The use of a single-family dwelling as a short-term rental is a residential use that is comparable to allowed uses in Policy 32. The proposed use will not create erosion or sedimentation problems because the use will not require new development and is proposed in an existing structure.

Policy 33 – All land uses and densities shall be designed so as not to destroy timber productivity on large parcels of high suitability woodland soils. (Class I and II.)

Timber productivity on large parcels of high suitability woodland soils will not be destroyed because the existing parcels are small and no change in density is proposed.

Page 1 Exhibit A-2 Recommended Findings – April 15, 2020 Rekhi Use Permit (UP1916) and Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA1935)

Composite Overall Policies

Policy 41.3(e) - All proposed uses of the land shall be clearly compatible with the surrounding and planned uses of the area.

The project site contains an existing residential use and is surrounded by land developed and utilized for residential purposes. The proposed short-term rental would be clearly compatible with existing residential uses adjacent to the project site and would not in any way threaten the public health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, convenience or general welfare of the surrounding area.

Policy 41.3(f) – All proposed uses of the land may be allowed if they clearly will not be disruptive or destroy the intent of protecting each mapped resource.

The use of the existing single-family dwelling for a short-term rental would not disrupt or destroy the intent of protecting each mapped resource because no new development is proposed as part of this project and, therefore, no disruption of a mapped resource would occur.

Policy 41.6 - There shall be a demonstration to the satisfaction of the Siskiyou County Environmental Health Department and/or the California Regional Water Quality Control Board that sewage disposal from all proposed development will not contaminate ground water.

Sewage disposal for the existing single-family dwelling that is proposed to be used as a vacation rental is provided by an existing private septic system that has passed inspection by the Siskiyou County Environmental Health Department. No new development is proposed as part of this project.

Policy 41.7 - Evidence of water quality and quantity acceptable to the Siskiyou County Environmental Health Department must be submitted prior to development approval.

Water service to the existing single-family dwelling proposed to be used as a vacation rental is provided by private well and water quality and quantity has been found to be acceptable to the Siskiyou County Environmental Health Department. No new development is proposed as part of this project.

Policy 41.9 - Buildable, safe access must exist to all proposed uses of land. The access must also be adequate to accommodate the immediate and cumulative traffic impacts of the proposed development.

The subject parcel proposed to be used as a vacation rental is accessed from Highland Drive, a public road that is adequate to accommodate the immediate and cumulative traffic impacts associated with this project.

Policy 41.18 – Conformance with all policies in the Land Use Element shall be provided, documented, and demonstrated before the County may make a decision on any proposed development.

Staff has reviewed all Land Use Element policies and has determined that the proposed vacation rental conforms to the General Plan.

Page 2 Exhibit A-2 Recommended Findings – April 15, 2020 Rekhi Use Permit (UP1916) and Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA1935)

California Environmental Quality Act Findings 1. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301, Class 1, projects involving the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of use are categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA. Because the project involves the permitting of an existing private structure, there is negligible or no expansion of use, and there is no substantial evidence demonstrating that there are unusual circumstances which would result in significant impacts that threaten the environment, the project is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301. 2. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines, Section 15305, Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations, minor lot line adjustments with an average slope of less than 20 percent that will not result in a change in land use or density are categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA. Because the boundary line adjustment is minor with an average slope of less than 20 percent that will not result in a change of land use or density, the project is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305. 3. The Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the proposed project and all written and oral comments submitted, and has determined that the record, as a whole, demonstrates that there is no evidence that the proposed project will have an individually or cumulatively significant effect. 4. The Planning Commission has determined that the custodian of all documents and material which constitute the record of proceedings shall rest with the County of Siskiyou Community Development Department.

Zoning Consistency/Use Permit Findings 1. The proposed use permit, as recommended for approval, is consistent with the applicable elements and policies of the Siskiyou County General Plan. 2. The proposed vacation rental is consistent with the applicable zoning provisions outlined in Section 10-6.1502(h) of the Siskiyou County Code. 3. Due to size, scale, intensity, and location of the project, the proposed use will not result in a significant change in the existing environment that would in any way threaten the public health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, convenience, or general welfare. 4. Due to the size, scale, intensity, and location of the project, the proposed use will not cause damage or nuisances from noise, smoke, odor, dust, vibration, explosion, contamination, fire, or traffic and will be reasonably compatible with the existing and permitted uses in surrounding areas. 5. The Planning Commission has considered all written and oral comments received and based on its analysis of the public testimony and staff’s analysis, the Commission has determined that the project as designed and conditioned would be compatible with existing and planned uses of the area.

BLA Findings 1. Because the proposed Boundary Line Adjustment involves four or fewer existing adjoining parcels, where the land taken from one parcel would be added to an adjoining parcel, and Page 3 Exhibit A-2 Recommended Findings – April 15, 2020 Rekhi Use Permit (UP1916) and Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA1935)

because a greater number of parcels than originally existed would not be created, the proposed boundary line adjustment is exempt from the requirements of the Subdivision Map Act pursuant to Government Code Section 66412(d). 2. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66412(d), the Planning Commission has limited its review and approval of the Rekhi Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA1935) to a determination of whether or not the parcels resulting from the proposed boundary line adjustment will conform to the Siskiyou County General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and California Building Code. 3. The proposed project is consistent with zoning designations and the applicable policies of the Siskiyou County General Plan. 4. Access to the parcels is via Highland Drive or Pine Grove Drive, both of which are public roads. 5. The resulting lots of record, as designed, would not result in a significant change in the existing environment that would in any way threaten the public health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, convenience or general welfare.
