TOPIC: 1075 FRANCISCO BOULEVARD EAST PARCEL MAP APPROVAL
(HAMPTON HOTELS)
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION APPROVING A PARCEL MAP FOR THE MERGING OF FOUR
LOTS TO TWO LOTS AT 1075 FRANCISCO BOULEVARD EAST
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt a resolution to approve a parcel map merging four lots to
two lots at 1075 Francisco Boulevard East.
BACKGROUND: The Planning Commission approved this project by Resolution No. 20-14 on
May 12, 2020. No building permits have been issued to date. The applicant requested the Parcel
Map, which merges four lots to two, be approved and recorded prior to completing frontage
improvements.
Staff reviewed the map and proposed frontage improvements and determined that a subdivision
improvement agreement and bonds are not required for this approval, since the conditions of
approval related to the development of a hotel on these new merged parcels require the building
of frontage improvements in the public right-of-way.
ANALYSIS: The lot merger will abandon several unused on-site easements and will maintain
needed easements. Staff and BKF, the City’s consultant surveyor, have reviewed this map and
have determined it is complete as to map form and compliance with the Subdivision Map Act.
FISCAL IMPACT: No fiscal impact is associated with this report.
OPTIONS: The City Council has the following options to consider in this matter:
1.Adopt the resolution.
2.Adopt resolution with modifications.
3.Direct staff to return with more information.
4.Take no action.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt a resolution to approve a parcel map merging four lots to
two lots at 1075 Francisco Boulevard East.

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, the Planning Commission makes the following findings
relating to the Use Permit (UP19-016), Environmental and Design Review (ED19-038), and Major
Subdivision (TS 19-003) for the proposed 185-room hotel.
USE PERMIT FINDINGS
(HOTEL -UP19-016)
A. That the proposed use is in accord with the general plan, the objectives of the zoning ordinance,
and the purposes of the district in which the site is located:
The site is designated as General Commercial (GC) on the General Plan 2020 Land Use Map which
allows which allows for the establishment of general retail and service uses, including hotels. In
addition, the project is consistent with the General Plan and specifically with the following key General
Plan Policies:
Land Use Policies LU-9a (Nonresidential Zoning), LU-12 (Building Heights), LU-13 (Height
Bonuses), LU-20a (Hotel Zoning), and LU-23 (Land Use Map) establish FAR, height, and other
development standards for hotel uses. The proposed use is within a non-residential zoning district. As
a development that proposes a new hotel, no FAR limits apply for the development, and therefore the
project is consistent with General Plan policies LU-9a, LU-20a, and LU-23. Hotels are permitted a
maximum height of 54 feet. Section 14.16.120 of the SRMC excludes mechanical equipment from the
maximum height limits through approval of an Environmental and Design Review Permit. The project
proposes a 54-foot height to the rooftop with a maximum overall height of 61-feet 8-inches. The
additional height includes rooftop mechanical equipment and is therefore excluded from the maximum
height limits. Furthermore, the design has been recommended for approval by the Design Review
Board, subject to conditions contained herein. As such, the project is consistent with General Plan
policies LU-12, LU-13, and LU-20a. The project meets all applicable development standards of the
General Commercial Zoning District, consistent with General Plan policy LU-23.
Housing Policy H-6a (In-Lieu Fees) requires compliance with Zoning Code Section 14.16.030 which
establishes affordable housing requirements .for non-residential projects. The project's share of
affordable housing is 0.0075 affordable units per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. The gross floor
area is 106,000 square feet. Therefore, the project is required to provide 1 affordable unit or pay the
applicable in-lieu fee. Additionally, though the project does not propose any new residential
development, the recent approval of the Northgate Walk Project located at 1005, 1010, 1025, and 1025
Northgate Drive compensates for the loss of the project site as a housing opportunity site. Northgate
Walk is particularly applicable in compensating for the loss of this potential housing site as it includes
the demolition of an existing hotel, commercial building, and gas station and construction of 136
residential units, including 30 units affordable to seniors. As conditioned, the project is required to meet
affordable housing requirements and is therefore consistent with General Plan policy H-6a.
Neighborhood Policy NH-52 (New Business Development) encourages new development that
benefits the neighborhood through low traffic impacts. Hotels are identified as a desired land use as
they are low traffic-generators and high tax-generators. As such, the proposed project will benefit the
neighborhood and is therefore consistent with this policy
Economic Vitality Policy EV-2 (Businesses that Enhance San Rafael) seeks to recruit and retain
businesses that contribute to the economic vitality of the City and enhance the City's physical
environment. The project will contribute to the economic vitality of the City through increased
revenues. Additionally, the project will provide new employment opportunities and enhance the
-2 -
physical environment by improving an existing vacant lot located near a highly visible intersection. As
such, the proposed project is consistent with this General Plan policy.
Economic Vitality Policy EV-3 (Tourism) recognizes and supports tourism as a significant
contributor to the City's economy. As a visitor service use that supports tourism in the City, the
proposed hotel is consistent with this General Plan policy.
Economic Vitality Policy EV-8 (Diversity of our Economic Base) and EV-14 (Support for
Business Areas) seek to expand the range of businesses within the City and support upgrading existing
underdeveloped commercial properties. The proposed project will introduce a new hotel within the
City, and the Canal Neighborhood specifically, expanding upon the range of visitor accommodating
uses currently available within the City. Further, the proposed project will upgrade the existing
underdeveloped lot in an established light industrial/office area of the neighborhood. As such, the
proposed use is consistent with General Plan policies EV-8 and EV-14.
B. That the proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to
the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the
vicinity, or to the general welfare of the city:
The project has been reviewed by appropriate city departments, including the Building Division, Fire
Department, Department of Public Works, and Marin Sanitary Service. As conditioned, the project
will require application of a building permit that complies with all applicable Building and Fire Code
requirements prior to construction. In addition, the applicant will be required to comply with conditions
of approval imposed by the Department of Public Works and Marin Sanitary Service as contained
herein.
C. That the proposed use complies with each of the applicable provisions of the zoning ordinance:
The project, as proposed and conditioned, complies with the Chapter 14 (Zoning) of the San Rafael
Municipal Code (SRMC).
14.05.030 -Property development standards. The project is consistent with applicable development
standards for the GC Zoning District including the following:
• Lot Requirements: The minimum lot area required by the district is 6,000 square feet. The
proposed major subdivision includes consolidating the existing five individual lots into two.
The size of Parcel 1, which will contain the proposed hotel and associated improvements will
be 2.79 acres (121,710 square feet). Parcel 2, which is proposed to be used for parking will be
0.66 acres (28,566 square feet). Both proposed parcels exceed the minimum width requirement
of 60 feet.
• Floor Area Ratio: Exhibit 4 of the General Plan 2020 identifies floor area ratios in Central San
Rafael. However, as prescribed by General Plan Land Use Policy LU-20 and Section
14.16.lS0(A)(l), hotels are excluded from the FAR requirements.
• Setbacks: The General Commercial Zoning District does not have a requirement for setbacks.
However, the project proposes an approximately 30-foot setback from Francisco Blvd E, 57-
foot setback from the southern property line, 50-foot setback from the eastern property line,
and 50-foot setback from the northern property line. The smaller of the two parcels proposed
as part of the major subdivision does not propose the construction of any structures.
• Building height: Section 14.05.030 of the SRMC establish a 54-foot height limit for hotels. In
addition to the base height of 54-feet, Section 14.16.120 provides features that are excluded
from the maximum building height including mechanical equipment. The proposed building is
-3 -
54-feet to the height of the roof with an additional 7-feet 8-inches to accommodate rooftop
mechanical equipment, for an overall height of of 61' 8". This additional height is permissible
through approval of an Environmental and Design Review Permit.
Chapter 14.16 (Site and Use Regulations). The project is consistent with the following applicable site
and use regulations.
• 14.16.025 -Refuse enclosure requirement. The refuse enclosure will be located in the southeast
comer of the project site and will be adequately screened from view. The enclosure has been
reviewed by the local refuse collection agency to ensure minimum dimensional standards are
met.
• 14. 16.030 -Affordable housing requirement. Section 14.16.030(1)(2) states that hotel
development projects shall provide housing for project employees in very low, low, and
moderate income households at a ratio of 0.0075 per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area.
Required affordable units may be provided on the same site as the project, at an off-site location
within the City, through the dedication of suitable real property, or through payment on an in-
lieu fee subject to approval by the Planning Commission. Based on the gross floor area, the
project is required to provide one affordable housing unit or pay the applicable in-lieu fee.
• 14.16.227 -Light and glare . As specified in Section 14.16.227 colors, materials, and lighting
shall be designed to avoid light and glare impacts on surrounding development. Changes in
lighting intensity on non-residential properties is subject to review under the criteria of the
Environmental and Design Review Permit. As such, the project has been reviewed for
consistency with the applicable design criteria, as further discussed below.
• 14.16 .230 -Lot consolidation when development occurs. Section 14.16.230 states that new
development proposing construction on more than one adjoining lot where the building is
proposed to cross the shared property lines requires consolidation of those lots. The project
proposes consolidation of the five existing lots into two new lots. The project is consistent with
this requirement and is consistent with the requirements of the City's Subdivision Ordinance,
as further analyzed below.
• 14.16.243 -Mechanical equipment screening. All mechanical equipment is adequately
screened from public view as required.
• 14.16.260 -Noise standards. An acoustical study was prepared by Coffman Engineers on
September 5, 2019 to determine the consistency of the project with standards identified in the
General Plan. The acoustical analysis concluded that construction noise levels for the project
would meet applicable regulations of the SRMC. The analysis determined that at operation the
project's interior noise levels are expected to comply with the City's land use compatibility
standards for hotels. Furthermore, additional traffic expected to be generated by the project will
not result in noise impacts at off-site noise sensitive land uses. As such, the project is consistent
with the City's noise standards. The exemption memo, included as Exhibit X, includes a
thorough analysis of the project's noise impacts as it relates to applicable City standards and
the California Environmental Quality Act.
• 14.16.295 -Sight distance. The SRMC requires that fencing, vegetation and improvements be
established and maintained in a manner that does not reduce visibility for the safe ingress and
egress of vehicles or pedestrians within a required vision triangle, which is 15 feet from the
curb return at any intersection or driveway. Any improvements or vegetation located within
the established vision triangle must not exceed a height of three feet. With conditions of
approval the project will comply with this requirement.
• 14.16.3 70 -Water-efficient landscape. The landscape plan submitted by the applicant indicates
proposed species including trees, shrubs, and groundcover will require low and moderate water
usage. As specified in Section 14.16.370(C)(l) of the SRMC, project approval is subject to
-4 -
conditions which require the applicant to provide written verification of plan approval from the
Marin Municipal Water District (MMWD) prior to the issuance of a building permit or grading
permit.
Chapter 14.18 (Parking Standards). The project proposes to provide parking consistent with Chapter
14.18 of the SRMC including 195 automobile spaces, 16 of which will be designated for clean air
vehicles and 57 will be compact, and 20 bicycle parking spaces including 10 short-term and 10 long-
term. Furthermore, the project has been reviewed by the Department of Public Works to determine
compliance with parking facility dimensions, and adequacy of access to the public right-of-way.
ENVIRONMENTAL AND DESIGN REVIEW FINDINGS
(HOTEL -ED19-038)
A. That the project design is in accord with the general plan, the objectives of the zoning ordinance
and the purposes of this chapter:
The project site is designated as General Commercial (GC) on the General Plan 2020 Land Use Map
and is within the General Commercial (GC) Zoning District. Hotels are an allowable use within the GC
Zoning District with prior Conditional Use Permit approval by the Planning Commission. The project
is consistent with the following design-related General Plan polices:
Neighborhood Policy NH-51 (Existing Business Areas) encourages the redevelopment and
upgrading of existing business areas and sites. The proposed project is located just south of Bellam
Blvd/Francisco Blvd E, which is a prominent intersection within the neighborhood and consists of a
newer light industrial/office area. The addition of a hotel to this area will enhance the existing business
area and upgrade the overall site consistent with this policy.
Community Design Policies CD-le (Landscape Improvement) and CD-18 (Landscaping)
recognize that landscaping in a critical design component that should contribute to the overall site
design and provide visual interest. Landscaping is proposed throughout the project site and has been
designed to enhance the overall design of the site and reduce the visual impact of the proposed parking
areas. The project has been reviewed by the Design Review Board and meets all applicable landscaping
requirements including minimum requirements, species type, and water usage. As such, the project is
consistent with General Plan policies CD-le, and CD-18.
Community Design Policy CD-10 (Nonresidential Design Guidelines) seeks to preserve and enhance
the design elements that contribute to the economic vitality of commercial areas. The project
incorporates design criteria included in the City's Design Guidelines for Nonresidential Development
including parking lot design that provides logical entry and exits, landscaping that is designed as an
integral part of the development, pedestrian circulation that clearly defines movement through parking
lots, and building form that provides a continuity of design, colors, materials, and architectural
elements. Further, the project design has been reviewed by the Design Review Board and was found to
be consistent with these applicable design criteria. As such, the project is consistent with this General
Plan policy.
Community Design Policy CD-19 (Lighting) provides for adequate site lighting for safety purposes
while also controlling for light spillover and glare onto surrounding development. The project proposes
various types oflighting including wall sconces, LED up-lighting, LED accent lighting, bollard lighting
and single and double pole parking lot lights. As a condition of project approval, the photometric study
shall be recalculated to confirm illuminated exterior wall sections are included. Additionally,
-5 -
illuminated exterior wall sections are required to be dimmable and limited to a single shade of white.
As conditioned, the project is consistent with this policy.
Community Design Policy CD-21 (Parking Lot Landscaping) seeks to provide landscaping within
parking lots to control heat build-up from pavement, reduce air pollution, provide shade cover for
vehicles and soften the appearance of the parking lot. Landscaping is provided throughout the site
including in parking areas. Zoning Ordinance regulations require parking lots with more than five
spaces provide one canopy tree for every four parking spaces. The project will provide 195 parking
spaces, which requires a minimum of 49 canopy trees. As proposed, 57 canopy trees will be provided,
meeting both the intent of this policy and the regulations of the Zoning Ordinance.
Conservation Policy CON-16 (Landscape with Native Plant Species) encourages landscaping with
native and compatible non-native plant species that are drought resistant. The proposed landscape
palette includes species that require low to moderate water usage. Proposed parking lot trees,
groundcover, shrubs, and grasses have been selected from the City's parking lot tree list and consistent
