Recommendations to City Council for Certification of Environmental Impact Report (EIR), Planned Development (PD) Zoning Amendment, Master Use Permit, and Environmental and Design Review Permit for the Aldersly Retirement Community Project; APNs: 014-054-31 and -32; Planned Development (PD -1775) Zoning District; Applicant: Peter Lin, Greenbriar Development; Peter Schakow, Owner. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Aldersly Retirement Community and Greenbriar Development have filed applications for a project that proposes phased improvements over the next ten years on the Aldersly Campus. The project includes demolition and alterations of existing buildings, and construction of new buildings on the Campus. An EIR has been prepared to address significant environmental impacts that could result from the proposed project. Since multiple entitlements are being requested, including a Zoning Amendment, the Planning Commission action on the project permit applications and the EIR will be in the form of a recommendation to the City Council. REQUESTED ENTITLEMENTS The proposed project is subject to review and approval of the following: • Certification of Environmental Impact Report (EIR) (IS20-003). An EIR was prepared to address significant environmental effects that could result from the project. The Planning Commission will make a recommendation to the City Council regarding certification of the Final EIR, which includes responses to comments on the Draft EIR. • Zoning Amendment (ZC20-001) to amend the previously approved Planned Development (PD) Ordinance No. 1775, including revised Aldersly PD Development Standards. • Amendment to Master Use Permit (UP20-022). San Rafael Municipal Code (SRMC) §14.07.020.13 requires a master use permit for nonresidential, phased and/or multi -tenant development in a Planned Development District. Use Permits are typically acted on by the Planning Commission. However, where a single development project seeks multiple approvals, the highest decision-making body is responsible for review of all requested entitlements. This project includes a Zoning Amendment request, which must be acted on by the City Council. • Environmental and Design Review Permit (ED20-051). San Rafael Municipal Code (SRMC) §14.25.040.A.2 and 3 require an Environmental and Design Review Permit for modifications to existing structures and major site design improvements. As noted above, since multiple approvals are being requested, including a Zoning Amendment, the Planning Commission action on this permit will be a recommendation to the City Council. REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION - Case Nos: ZC20-001, UP20-002, ED 20-051 & IS20-003 Page 2 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission take the following action: 1. Adopt the attached Draft Resolution (Exhibit 1) recommending certification of Final EIR 2. Adopt the attached Draft Resolution (Exhibit 2) recommending adoption of Zoning Amendment (ZC20-001) Adopt the attached Draft Resolution (Exhibit 3) recommending approval Use Permit (UP20-022), Environmental and Design Review Permit (ED20-051), and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP).

None of the original buildings of the Aldersly campus remain, and the existing buildings on the campus represent a variety of styles reflecting the four periods of redevelopment in the 1940s, 1960s, 1990s and early 2000s. The most recent major development on the campus is the 30 -unit Memory Care/Assisted Living facility and parking garage (Rosenberg) on the east side of the property, completed in 2004 under the approved PD1 775. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Proposed Use No changes in use are proposed. The use of the property is a retirement community (per PD1775) and would remain the same. Aldersly would continue to provide a mix of Assisted Living/Memory Care, Skilled Nursing, and Residential/ Independent Living units for older adults. The project would result in a net increase of +14 Independent Living units (an increase from 55 units to 69 units) and new construction, renovations, and demolition of existing buildings (discussed below) to modernize and meet the changing needs of existing and future residents. As noted in the proposed PD Zoning and Development Standards, the overall goal of the master plan is "to keep Aldersly a boutique residential community for older people looking for a home with hygge (pronounced "hoo-gah') - Danish for the experience of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders feelings of contentment and well-being." Proposed Site Plan The project proposes improvements in three phases that include demolition and renovation of existing buildings, and construction of new buildings on the Aldersly Campus. Buildout of the proposed Development Plan would result in a new four -level Independent Living (IL) building along Mission Avenue, a new Independent Living building on the western portion of the site, a new service building on the north portion along Belle Avenue, three renovated/reconfigured buildings, and new outdoor spaces including a memory care garden, activity lawn, and rose terrace. Figure 3 depicts proposed site plan at buildout of all three phases. Figure 3: Illustrative Proposes!

It is noted that the applicant modified the phasing plan in May 2022 in response to neighbor comments regarding construction access from Belle and the construction staging required for each phase of development. The original plan was to develop in four phases. After reviewing the required construction staging and site access issues, the phasing plan was modified and consolidated into three phases instead of the original four. Each phase of the Aldersly Development Plan is outlined below: PHASE 1 MISSION AVENUE INDEPENDENT LIVING Phase 1A: New Mission Ave Independent Living (IL) Building: • Demolition of Marselisborg (4,500 sq. ft.), Graasten (4,320 sq. ft.), Lieslund (1,800 sq. ft.) Independent Living buildings and the single-family residence at 308 Mission Avenue • Construction of new independent living apartments along Mission Avenue (net gain of 21 residential units and 9 parking spaces) • Redesign the parking spaces (6 net new spaces) located near the new east driveway (308 Mission property) • Redesign of the site entry (1 net new parking space) • Expansion of community space and improve central courtyard Phase 1 B: Frederiksborg Independent Living (Interior Remodel/Addition): ■ Interior renovation of 15,000 sq. ft. Fredensborg (no discretionary review required; consistent with approved Development Plan) • Partial rebuild of 5,000 sq. ft. Frederiksborg with a 1,200 sq. ft. addition for a total of 7,200 sq. ft. (4 new parking spaces) Phase 1 C: Fredensborg Terrace • Improve outdoor space PHASE 2 — SERVICE BUILDING ADDITION & KRONBORG RENOVATION • Renovate existing 14,250 sq. ft. Kronborg (no net increase in 20 Skilled Nursing beds) • Renovate interior of lower level to provide Wellness (yoga, meditation, salon, massage) and additional amenities • Demolish the 6,510 sq. ft. Minor Building currently used for Independent Living (loss of 8 residential units) • Add a new service connector building with service elevator connections to Rosenborg and Kronborg to improve service access for delivery, refuse and maintenance back -of -house spaces for increased efficiency. • Expand outdoor garden for Memory Care PHASE 3 - WEST CAMPUS INDEPENDENT LIVING ADDITION • Replace Amalienborg (5,500 sq. ft.) and Sorgenfri (3,800 sq. ft.) with a new 15 -unit Independent Living building (+1 unit net) • Partial rebuild of Frederiksborg to increase floor area (no net change in number of IL units). Add four new parking spaces. Interior renovation of Frendensborg (-2 net change in number of IL units) Elevations As noted above, the project proposes the construction of new buildings on the Aldersly Campus, including a new four -level Independent Living (IL) building along Mission Avenue, a new Independent Living building on the western portion of the site, and a new service building on the north portion along Belle Avenue. Elevations and section drawings depicting the proposed new buildings are provided on Sheets A5.1 and A5.2 of the project plans. REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION - Case Nos: ZC20-001, UP20-002, ED 20-051 & IS20-003 Page 6 ANALYSIS Consistency with City Council Goals and Objectives: In 2021 the City Council adopted a list of goals and objectives. One of the key policy areas included in the goals and objectives is focused on creating new housing. For fiscal year 2022/2023, the City Council continued the goals and objectives from the 2021/2022 fiscal year as these key policy areas remain relevant. For fiscal year 2022/2023 the Community Development Department will keep track of progress in this policy area by tracking the number of Housing units entitled and housing units produced by unit, income level, and the contribution that these units make toward meeting the City's regional housing allocation (RHNA). The Aldersly project would contribute toward meeting the goal of producing more housing by adding 14 senior housing units to the City's housing inventory. Since all of the proposed 14 independent living units would include a kitchen and a bathroom, they meet the definition of a dwelling unit and have been included in the anticipated number of units to be completed during the 2023-2031 timeframe. Housing Accountability Act: The project is considered a housing development and is therefore protected under the housing accountability act (Government Code section 65589). A local agency cannot deny a housing development project that is consistent with general plan and zoning standards, unless the local agency finds that the proposed housing development project would have a specific, adverse impact upon the public health or safety and that such impacts cannot be mitigated. Staff has conducted analysis and no public health or safety impacts have been identified. San Rafael General Plan 2040 Consistency: The site is designated as High Density Residential on the General Plan 2040 Land Use Map, which allows for the mix of independent living, assisted living and convalescent care. A complete analysis of the project's consistency with General Plan 2040 policies is provided in the Exhibit 5 - General Plan Consistency Table. Below is a discussion of some of the key General Plan policies applicable to the project. Housing and Land Use. There are a number of policies in the City's General Plan (Land Use and Housing Element) that support the creation of additional housing, including housing for San Rafael's aging population. One of the four stated goals of the Housing Element (GOAL 4) is to assure that we have an adequate housing supply and mix that matches the needs of people of all ages, income levels, and special requirements. San Rafael has a wide range of housing types. People who work in San Rafael should be able to live here and there should be adequate housing for seniors and very low-income households. Housing Element Policy H-1. Housing Distribution. Promote the distribution of new and affordable housing of quality construction throughout the city to meet local housing needs. Sub -policy H -1.a identifies the need to make progress towards the Regional Housing Needs Allocation since the start of the planning period. H-13. Senior Housing. Encourage housing that meets the needs of San Rafael's older population, particularly affordable units and affordable care facilities that foster aging within the community. Support development that provides housing options so that seniors can find suitable housing to rent or purchase. Policy LU -2.8: Senior and Disabled Care Facilities. Encourage facilities and services to meet the needs of older and disabled residents, including senior housing, assisted living, and convalescent care facilities; and facilities providing adult day care and social services, and health care for older adults and people with disabilities. See Goal EDI -6 for additional policies and programs addressing the needs of older adults. REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION - Case Nos: ZC20-001, UP20-002, ED 20-051 & IS20-003 Page 7 The property was developed in 1921 as a retirement community for Danish immigrants and has evolved over the last 100 years to meet the needs of older adults. One of the overarching goals of the project is to allow the Aldersly Retirement Community to continue to evolve to meet the needs of current and future residents. The proposed project would result in a net increase of fourteen (14) independent living units for seniors (from 55 units to 69 units) and would continue to provide 35 Assisted Living/Memory Care beds and 20 Skilled Nursing beds, which is similar to convalescent care. The project would allow Aldersly to continue to provide options for older adults seeking to "age in community" and/or relocate to suitable housing for persons with mobility limitations and those suffering from dementia -related illnesses, and allows for Aldersly to adapt to changing tastes, styles, technology, and needs as they evolve. (Policy LU - 2.8: Senior and Disabled Care Facilities; Policy LU -3.2: New Development in Residential Neighborhoods; EDI -6.2: Aging in Community; Policy H-13: Senior Housing). Neighborhood Compatibility. Proposed new buildings have been located and designed to minimize impacts on adjacent residential properties and maintain existing view corridors and not interfere with scenic vistas as viewed from adjacent public areas. The proposed four-story Mission Avenue Independent Living Building includes design features that break up the mass of the building. The top floor is recessed from the street -side and a lighter exterior color is proposed to visually reduce the height. Variations in form, material, and colors are utilized to break up mass and roof line; vertical elements are used to break up the south fagade along Mission Avenue. This building would be approximately 48 feet from adjacent residential properties along Union Street, and 65-95 feet from the residential property at 304 Mission Avenue (corner of Mission and Union). While this building setback is substantial, it is acknowledged that solar access to neighboring properties to the east may be reduced during certain times of the year. It is also noted that the residential properties east of the project site are zoned R-5 and have a building height limit of 30 feet. Properties west of the project site are zoned Duplex Residential (DR) and Multifamily Residential (MR3) with height limits of 30 feet and 36 feet, respectively (Policy CDP -4.8: Scale Transitions). All proposed parking areas, loading areas, and trash facilities will be appropriately screened. The proposed project includes a wooden fence along the north, east and west sides of the property, and proposes landscape screening in the new parking area (east driveway) that will provide a buffer between the Aldersly campus and residential neighbors to the west at 304 Mission and along Union Street. In addition, improvements proposed for the north side of the campus adjacent to Belle Avenue include a new service building and enclosed delivery area, as well as a new enclosure for solid waste/recycla bles/com post (Policy LU -3.6: Transitions Between Uses). Parking, Loading and Delivery Areas. As conditioned, the project would be consistent with General Plan policies related to parking and loading (truck deliveries). One of Aldersly's project objectives is to provide additional on-site parking. Parking is an issue in the Montecito/Happy Valley Neighborhood and other residential areas in the City, as reflected in policies contained in General Plan 2040 (Policy LU -3.7: On - Street Parking, Policy NH -2.20: Parking, Policy CDP -4.9: Parking and Driveways). The General Plan also includes policies that recognize the need to periodically adjust off-street parking requirements and allow reduced parking when it can be demonstrated that project will have lower vehicle ownership rates; for example, for senior housing or housing in the downtown area (Policy M-7.6: Off -Street Parking Standards). The project would provide eight (8) additional on-site parking spaces over what exists today. In addition, proposed Condition 8 of the Master Use Permit (UP20-022) would require that Aldersly implement a Parking Management Strategy to maximize on-site parking during peak periods and reduce the use of on - street parking in the neighborhood. Managing truck traffic and deliveries in residential areas is also addressed in the General Plan (General Plan Policy M-5.6: Truck Impacts). The number and type of trucks used for deliveries to the Aldersly campus is not expected to change as a result of the Proposed Project. The existing loading and delivery area on Belle Avenue would remain and would continue to accommodate all deliveries through Phase 1. After completion of Phase 2, a new delivery area for medium-size trucks would be available in the new Service Building. The project application and plans have been reviewed and accepted by the City Traffic Engineer subject to conditions included in the attached resolution approving the Master Use Permit and REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION - Case Nos: ZC20-001, UP20-002, ED 20-051 & IS20-003 Page 8 Environmental and Design Review Permit (Exhibit 3). In addition, to further minimize potential conflicts, Condition 7 of the Master Use Permit (UP20-022) would require that the timing of deliveries to the Aldersly campus be coordinated with drop-off and pick-up times at child daycare and schools in the neighborhood. Based on the above and the analysis provided in Exhibit 5 - General Plan Consistency Table, it is staff's opinion that the project as conditioned is consistent with General Plan 2040. Although the project would have an impact on the eligibility of a historic resource (discussed below under Environmental Review), all other significant environmental impacts would be mitigated to less than significant, and as outlined above, the project would further the City's goals regarding senior care, housing, and economic development of the City. Zoning Ordinance Consistency: PD Zoning Amendment As noted above, the applicant is requesting an amendment to the previously approved Planned Development (PD) Ordinance (PD1775), which includes amended PQ _Development Standards. The amended development standards are essentially the same as those approved with PD1775 (same setbacks, building height limit, lot coverage, etc.) but with text changes to reflect the proposed development including the additional eight parking spaces (56 spaces total) that are proposed, and the 14 additional independent living units (total of 69 independent living units) proposed. The table below demonstrates the project's consistency with the proposed PD Development Standards for the Aldersly Planned Development. 2: Aldersly PD Development Standards Consistency Table Lot Size Required: 2.5 acres Proposed 2.9 acres (no change) Height Allowed: 36 feet Proposed: 36 feet (Mission Ave. IL Building) Maximum Lot Coverage Required: 60% Proposed: 53% Maximum Density* Allowed: 125 (1,000 s.f./unit) Existing: 55 Independent Living Units Proposed: 69 Independent Living Units * only Independent Living units count toward density calculations On -Site Parking Minimum Lot Width (New lots) Required: Flexible based on net new Required: None Required parking demand Proposed: 56 spaces at buildout Minimum Landscape Area No minimum area specified in PD Development Standards Setbacks Front - Mission Ave Side - East Side - West Rear - Belle Ave. Required Proposed 15' 15' 5' 5' 5' 5' 10' 10' Parking Parking requirements were determined based on specific land use classifications identified in the San Rafael Municipal Code, Chapter 14.18: Parking Standards. There are currently 48 parking spaces on the Aldersly campus. The proposed project includes redesign of on-site parking areas, and the number of parking spaces would increase from 48 to 56 spaces, a net increase of eight on-site parking spaces, which exceeds the number of spaces required to accommodate 14 additional independent living units and staff (2.4 FTE). Therefore, the proposed off-street parking supply was determined to meet the City's Zoning Code requirements for the proposed project. REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION - Case Nos: ZC20-001, UP20-002, ED 20-051 & IS20-003 Page 9 It is also noted that the the Aldersly campus is located approximately 0.4 miles southwest of the SMART Downtown San Rafael Station. Per recent State legislation (AB 2097), minimum parking requirements cannot be imposed or enforced in any residential, commercial, or other development project located within '/z mile of public transit after January 1, 2023. Nevertheless, the project would voluntarily provide eight (8) additional on-site parking spaces over what exists today. In addition, as noted above, Condition 8 of the Master Use Permit (Exhibit 3) would require that Aldersly implement a Parking Management Strategy to maximize on-site parking during peak periods and reduce the use of on -street parking in the neighborhood. Master Use Permit Amendment As noted above, a master use permit is required for nonresidential, phased and/or multi -tenant development in a Planned Development District. Staffs analysis of the project's consistency with the Use Permit findings set forth in Section 14.22.080 of the SRMC is provided in in the Draft Resolution, Exhibit 3. Environmental and Design Review Permit As noted above, San Rafael Municipal Code (SRMC) §14.25.040.A.2 and A.3 require approval of an Environmental and Design Review Permit for modifications to existing structures and major site design improvements. The Environmental and Design Review Permit for the proposed development on the Aldersly campus was reviewed by the Design Review Board (DRB) and on October 5 and December 7, 2021. At the October 2021 meeting, the DRB continued the item to allow the applicant time to respond to address the following consensus items reached by the Board: • Find ways to reduce imposing fagade of building along Mission Avenue through architectural stepbacks, other features, or an increased setback. • Make an effort to reduce bioswales along mission to allow increased tree screening of buildings and parking. The applicant responded with the following revisions to project plans, which were presented to the DRB on December 7, 2021: Revisions to Mission Avenue Independent Living building include: • Utilizing more vertical elements to break up the south fagade • Changing the form and material to break the roof line; and Changing the color and material (Stucco Color 4 - Scanda Blue) in center portion to provide more of a separate the building into east and west parts. Revisions to Bioretention Areas and Landscape Plan: • Redistribution of bioretention areas on the site that allow for additional trees to be planted between the Mission Avenue IL building and Mission Avenue Right of way (ROW). These revisions are shown on Sheets 2.0-R and L6.1 -R of the project plans. The Board voted to recommend approval of ED20-051 that incorporated the revisions noted above. The Planning Commission's action on ED20-051 is a recommendation to the City Council. Staffs analysis of the project's consistency with the Environmental and Design Review Findings set forth in Section 14.25.090 of the SRMC is provided in the Draft Resolution, Exhibit 3. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW A Final Environmental Impact Report (Final EIR) has been prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Final EIR is comprised of the Draft EIR together with the Response to Comments document that contains the following: (1) a list of persons, organizations, and public agencies commenting on the Draft EIR; (2) copies of comments received on the Draft EIR; (3) the REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION - Case Nos: ZC20-001, UP20-002, ED 20-051 & IS20-003 Page 10 City of San Rafael's responses to those comments; and (4) revisions to the Draft EIR to clarify or correct information. This Final EIR is presented to Planning Commission for a recommendation to the City Council regarding certification. The Final EIR must be certified by the City Council before the project can be approved. CEQA also requires the adoption of findings prior to project approval in cases where the certified EIR identifies significant environmental effects (CEQA Guidelines §§15091 and 15092) and a MMRP (§15097). The findings must include a statement of overriding considerations for any impact identified in the EIR as a significant adverse impact that cannot be mitigated to a less -than -significant level (CEQA Guidelines §15093[b]). Draft CEQA findings are included in Draft Resolution recommending certification of Final EIR (Exhibit 1). The Final EIR identifies one significant and unavoidable adverse impact on Historic Resources that would result from the Project. This impact can be reduced, although not to a less -than -significant level, through implementation of Mitigation Measure CUL -1 identified in the Final EIR. That would require Aldersly to undertake measures to document and provide interpretation, commemoration, and salvage of the historic resources prior to any demolition. This would reduce the impact on historic resources, but not to a less- than- significant level. Therefore, the impact would remain significant and unavoidable. All other environmental impacts would be avoided or less than significant with implementation of mitigation measures, including impacts related to air quality, biological resources, cultural resources (archeology), tribal cultural resources, geologic/paleontological resources, and noise. All adopted mitigation measures are included in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) to ensure CEQA compliance during Project implementation. NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING / CORRESPONDENCE Notice of this hearing for the project was conducted in accordance with noticing requirements contained in Chapter 29 of the Zoning Ordinance. A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Marin Independent Journal and mailed to all property owners and occupants within a 300 -foot radius of the subject site and to all other interested parties 15 calendar days prior to the date of this hearing. A Public Hearing notice was also posted on the subject site 15 calendar days prior to the date of this hearing. Public comments received prior to the posting of the staff report packet are included as Exhibit 8. Correspondence received before the Planning Commission meeting will be forwarded to Commission members under separate cover. Comments received during the Draft EIR 45 -day public review period are contained in the Response to Comments document along with responses to these comments. It is noted that many of the comments submitted during the Draft EIR review period pertain to the merits of the project and should be considered by the Planning Commission prior to making its recommendation to the City Council on the merits of the project. Public comments express a range of opinions — from support for the proposed project to concerns about losing the special charm of the existing Aldersly campus, adequacy of on-site parking, and construction noise and dust. OPTIONS The Planning Commission has the following options: 1. Adopt the Resolutions recommending to the City Council: a) certification of the Final EIR; b) adopt MMRP; and c) project applications as presented, subject to conditions of approval (staff recommendation); or 2. Recommend certification of the Final EIR as presented, and recommend approval of project applications with certain modifications, changes, or additional conditions of approval; or 3. Continue the hearing (to a date certain or an undefined date) to allow the applicant to address any of the Commission's comments or concerns; or REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION - Case Nos: ZC20-001, UP20-002, ED 20-051 & IS20-003 Page 11 4.

Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15000 et seq.) require an analysis and determination regarding a project's potential environmental impacts. It was determined that the project has the potential to result in potentially significant environmental effects, and the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report ("EIR") was recommended; and WHEREAS, the City released a Notice of Preparation ("NOP") for the Project to the Office of Planning and Research ("OPR") State Clearinghouse and interested agencies and persons on November 25, 2021 for a 30 -day review period, during which interested agencies and the public could submit comments about the Project. The City held a public scoping meeting on December 14, 2021. Comments on the NOP were received and considered during preparation of the Draft EIR; and WHEREAS, a Notice of Availability ("NOK) was issued and the Draft EIR was made available for public review on the City's website on August 16, 2022 for a 45 -day public review period through September 30, 2022; and WHEREAS, the Draft EIR was filed with the California Office of Planning and Research on August 17, 2022; and WHEREAS, the San Rafael Planning Commission held a public comment hearing on the Draft EIR on September 13, 2022; and WHEREAS, on November 10, 2022, the City published a Response to Comments Document that contains all of the comments received on the Draft EIR during the public comment period, including those received at the public hearing, and prepared written responses to those comments in accordance with CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines. The Draft EIR and Response to Comments Document, together with the errata, constitute the Final EIR; and WHEREAS, all required public notices and public hearings were duly given and held according to law; and WHEREAS, after notice having been lawfully given, a duly noticed public hearing was held before the City Planning Commission on November 15, 2022, at which all persons interested had the opportunity to appear and comment and at which the Planning Commission considered and made recommendations to the City Council regarding the Final EIR and the merits of the Project; and WHEREAS, pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21082.1(c)(3), the City finds that the Final EIR reflects the City's independent judgment as the lead agency for the Project and is supported by substantial evidence; and WHEREAS, the Final EIR identified certain potentially significant adverse effects on the environment caused by the Project; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission specifically finds that where more than one reason for approving the Project and rejecting alternatives is given in its findings or in the record, and where more than one reason is given for adopting the Statement of Overriding Considerations, it would have made its decision on the basis of any one of those reasons; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission desires, in accordance with CEQA, to declare that, despite the potential for significant environmental effects that cannot be substantially lessened or avoided through the adoption of feasible mitigation measures or feasible alternatives, there exist certain overriding economic, social, and other considerations for approving the project that justify the occurrence of those impacts; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission fully reviewed, considered and evaluated all the testimony and evidence submitted in this matter and determined that a Statement of Overriding Considerations is warranted. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the San Rafael Planning Commission recommends that the City Council of the City of San Rafael certify the Final Project EIR, makes the following findings with respect to the Proposed Project's significant effects on the environment as identified in the Final Project EIR, as required under Sections 15091, 15092, and 15093 of the CEQA Guidelines, and adopt the Statement of Overriding Considerations and the MMRP as follows: I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION As fully described in Chapter 2 of the Draft EIR, the Project includes phased construction on the Aldersly campus, including the construction of three new buildings and additions/renovations to existing buildings as outlined below: PHASE 1: Build new Independent Living (IL) Building, Relocate the Campus Reception/Entry to street level, Expand Community Space, and Improve Central Courtyard. Phase 1A: • Demolish three small buildings (Liselund, Marselisborg and Graasten) containing a total of 12 independent living, studio units. • Demolish building at 308 Mission (currently used as office space) Phase 1 B: Add new independent living building. 2 • Construct new independent living 35 -unit building. Includes the redesign of site entry and parking for better accessibility for residents and visitors. (An elevator and an interior connection to Fredensborg will enable sheltered ADA access to upper levels on the hillside site). • Provide nine (9) parking spaces in the new Mission Avenue IL building, five guest parking spaces at the new main entrance, and eight surface parking spaces along the East driveway to Rosenborg. • Expand community space with a cafe, rooftop lounge, arts & crafts/activity room, and a conference room/pre-function room. • Improve central courtyard. Improve outdoor spaces with new gathering spaces and landscaping, including historic elements. PHASE 2: Service Building Addition • Demolish the Minor Building (8 independent living units) Construct a new service connector building with service elevator connections to Rosenborg and Kronborg to improve service access for delivery, refuse and maintenance back -of -house spaces for increased efficiency. • Expand outdoor garden for Memory Care (Rosenberg) PHASE 3: West Campus Independent Living ■ Demolish Amalienborg and Sorgenfri (14 independent living units) ■ Construct new 15 independent living units in new West Campus IL building (net +1). ■ Partial rebuild of Frederiksborg to increase floor area (no net change in number of IL units). Add four new parking spaces. Interior renovation of Frendensborg (-2 net change in number of IL units) At buildout of the proposed PD Development Plan, (estimated to be 10 years from Project approval, or approximately the year 2032) the Project would result in fourteen (14) net new additional independent living units, an increase from 55 units to 69 units. The number of Assisted Living/Memory Care beds (35 beds) and Skilled Nursing beds (20 beds) would remain unchanged. The number of parking on-site parking spaces would increase from 48 spaces to 56 spaces at buildout of the Development Plan. The anticipated entitlements and permits that would be needed for the Project are the following: • A zoning amendment to amend the previously approved Ordinance No. 1775, including revised Aldersly PD Development Standards. (ZC20-001); • An amendment to a master use permit (UP20-022); and ■ An environmental and design review permit for Phases 1-3 (ED20-051) A. PROJECT OBJECTIVES The Project Sponsor has identified the following goals and objectives of the Project: Goals: • To keep Aldersly a boutique residential community for older people looking for a home with hygge - Danish for the experience of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders feelings of contentment and well-being. • To allow the Aldersly Retirement Community to evolve to meet the needs of current and future residents for the next 20 years. 3 Project objectives originating from these overarching goals include: • Create a financially sustainable community that will last another 100 years • Add a second dining venue and resident lounge/gathering spaces • Create a dedicated Memory Care Center with an accessible outdoor garden area • Update Independent Living units to attract new residents. Increase number of larger, more marketable units (average unit size in square feet) • Improve site accessibility and access to campus amenities for staff and residents with various levels of mobility ■ Improve entry experience to create a positive first impression ■ Define a core active space for residents that promotes social interaction and movement between different parts of the campus ■ Provide outdoor spaces with lush landscaping to maintain Aldersly's long- time connections to nature and outdoor living, in keeping with the original hygge spirit of the community • Provide additional parking • Improve delivery area and back of house spaces to increase efficiency and ease access from Belle Avenue • Maximize Aldersly's footprint, within the limits of the land use and design controls established by the City's planning documents II. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW PROCESS A. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT According to CEQA, lead agencies are required to consult with public agencies having jurisdiction over a proposed project, and to provide the general public with an opportunity to comment on the Draft EIR. An NOP for an EIR was issued by the City to the OPR State Clearinghouse and interested agencies and persons on November 25, 2021 for a 30 -day review period, during which interested agencies and the public could submit comments about the Project. The City also held a public scoping meeting on December 14, 2021. Comments on the NOP were received by the City and considered during preparation of the Draft EIR. A Notice of Availability (NOA) of the Draft EIR was issued on August 16, 2022, and the Draft EIR was made available for public review for a 45 -day public review period through September 30, 2022. The Draft EIR was distributed to local, regional, and State agencies and the general public was advised of the availability of the Draft EIR. The Responses to Comments Document provides responses to the comments received during the comment period on the Draft EIR. The Draft EIR and the Responses to Comments Document comprise the Final EIR. The Planning Commission was presented with the Final EIR for consideration at a public hearing on November 15, 2022. The Planning Commission, however, does not take final action on the Final EIR or the Project, but provides recommendations. The City Council then considers the Planning Commission's recommendations on the Final EIR and the Project during a noticed public hearing and takes the final action on the Project. The City Council is currently scheduled to consider certification of the Final EIR at a regularly scheduled public hearing on December 5, 2022. 4 III. CERTIFICATION OF THE FINAL EIR Upon receiving the recommendation of the Planning Commission, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15090, the City of San Rafael, acting by and through its City Council will certify that the Final EIR has been completed in compliance with CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines. The City will further certify that it has been presented with the Final EIR and that it has reviewed and considered the information contained in the Final EIR prior to approving the Project.

FINDINGS The findings, recommendations, and statement of overriding considerations set forth below ("Findings") are to be made and adopted by the City Council of the City of San Rafael as the City's findings under CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines relating to the Project. The Findings provide the written analysis and conclusions of the City Council regarding the Project's environmental impacts, mitigation measures, alternatives to the Project, and the overriding considerations that support approval of the Project despite any remaining environmental effects it may have. These findings summarize the environmental determinations of the Final EIR with regard to Project impacts before and after mitigation, and do not attempt to repeat the full analysis of each environmental impact contained in the Final EIR. Instead, the findings provide a summary description of and basis for each impact conclusion identified in the Final EIR, describe the applicable mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR, and state the City's findings and rationale about the significance of each impact following the adoption of mitigation measures. A full explanation of the environmental findings and conclusions can be found in the Final EIR; the discussion and analysis in the Final EIR regarding mitigation measures and the Project's impacts is adopted by reference. The City intends to adopt each of the mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR. Accordingly, in the event a mitigation measure identified in the Final EIR has been inadvertently omitted from these findings, such mitigation measure is hereby adopted and incorporated into the Project in the findings below by reference. In addition, in the event the language of a mitigation measure set forth below fails to accurately reflect the mitigation measure in the Final EIR due to a clerical error, the language of the mitigation measure as set forth in the Final EIR shall control unless the language of the mitigation measure has been specifically and expressly modified by these findings. Sections IV and V, below, provide brief descriptions of the impacts that the Final EIR identifies as either significant and unavoidable or less than significant with adopted mitigation. These descriptions also reproduce the full text of the mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR for each significant impact. IV. FINDINGS FOR SIGNIFICANT AND UNAVOIDABLE IMPACT The Final EIR identifies one significant and unavoidable adverse impact associated with the approval of the Project, which can be reduced, although not to a less -than -significant level, through implementation of mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR: As explained below, this impact will remain significant and unavoidable notwithstanding adoption of feasible mitigation measures. The City Council finds there are no additional feasible mitigation measures or alternatives that could be adopted at this time that would reduce these significant and unavoidable impacts to a less than significant level. For reasons set forth below, however, the City Council has determined that overriding economic, social, and other considerations outweigh the Project's significant and 0 unavoidable effects. The findings in this section are based on the Project EIR, the discussion and analysis of which is hereby incorporated in full by this reference. A. IMPACT CUL -1: The Proposed Project would result in the demolition of six of the nine contributing buildings and landscape features that are contributing features of an historic resource. The Final EIR finds that the Aldersly property is potentially eligible for listing as a historic district in the California Register of Historic Resources (California Register) and is therefore considered a historic resource. The Proposed Project would demolish six contributing buildings, partially demolish one contributing building, and alter an additional contributing building, leaving only one contributing building intact. The construction of the three new buildings would require the removal and relocation of some landscape features — including the Rose Garden and fountain — and would infill some of the green space of the existing campus, including a corner of the central lawn. All landscape features of the Aldersly campus that are contributing features of the historic resource would be altered in some way, either through relocation, removal, or alteration. Implementation of Mitigation Measure CUL -1 set forth below, which is hereby adopted and incorporated into the Project, would reduce these impacts, but not to a less -than - significant level. Therefore, the impact would be significant and unavoidable. Mitigation Measure CUL -1: Interpretation and Commemoration of Historic Resources. Prior to issuance of demolition permit(s), the project sponsor shall undertake the following measures to document and provide interpretation, commemoration, and salvage of the historic resources to be demolished, as outlined below: CUL -1a: Documentation. Prior to issuance of demolition permits, the project sponsor shall undertake Historic American Building Survey (HABS)/Historic American Landscape Survey (HALS)—style documentation of the property. The documentation shall be funded by the project sponsor and undertaken by a qualified professional who meets the standards for history, architectural history, or architecture (as appropriate) set forth in the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards (Code of Federal Regulations title 36, part 61). The documentation package created shall consist of the items listed below: • CUL -1a-1: HABS-style Photographs • CUL -1a-2: HABS/HALS-style Historical Report CUL -1a-3: HALS-style Site Plan • CUL -1a-4: Video Documentation The documentation materials shall be offered to state, regional, and local repositories, including but not limited to, the Northwest Information Center (NWIC)- California Historical Resource Information System, San Rafael Public Library, the Marin County Free Library's Anne T. Kent California Room, and the Marin History Museum. Materials will either be provided in digital or hard copy formats depending on the capacity and preference of the repository. CUL -1a-1: HABS-style Photographs Digital photographs will be taken of the contributing buildings and landscape 7 elements and the overall character and setting of the historic resource. All digital photography shall be conducted according to current National Park Service standards as specified in the National Register Photo Policy Factsheet (updated May 2013). The photography shall be undertaken by a qualified professional with demonstrated experience in documentation photography. Large format negatives are not required. The scope of the digital photographs shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Division's staff for concurrence. Photograph views for the data set shall include contextual views of the site and each contributing landscape element and building; elevations of each fapade of each building; and detail views of character -defining features. All photographs shall be referenced on a photographic key map or site plan. The photographic key shall show the photograph number with an arrow to indicate the direction of the view. CUL -1a-2: HABS/HALS-style Historical Report A written historical narrative and report will be produced that meets the HABS/HALS Historical Report Guidelines. This HABS/HALS-style Historical Report may be based on the documentation provided in the 2017 Historic Resource Evaluation for the site and will include historic photographs and drawings, if available. The written history shall follow the standard outline format that begins with a statement of significance for the historic district, describes the architectural and historical context of the district, and includes descriptions of each contributing building and landscape feature. CUL -1a-3: HALS-style Site Plan A HALS-style site plan shall be prepared that depicts the existing sizes, scale, dimensions, and relative locations of the contributing landscape elements and buildings related to the historic resource. Particular attention will be paid to the arrangement and plantings of landscape features that are contributing resources to the historic resource. Documentation of all plantings is not required, but depiction of the locations and types of mature trees, and designed hardscape and landscape features shall be included. CUL -1a-4: Video Recordation. Video recordation shall be undertaken prior to the issuance of demolition permits. The project sponsor shall undertake a video documenting the historic resource and its setting. The documentation shall be conducted by a professional videographer, preferably one with experience recording architectural resources. The documentation shall be narrated by a qualified professional who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards for history, architectural history, or architecture (as appropriate). The documentation shall include as much information as possible—using visuals in combination with narration—about the materials, construction methods, current condition, historic use, historic context, and historic significance of the historic resource. The video documentation shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Division's staff prior to issuance of demolition permits. CUL -11b: Interpretation. The project sponsor shall provide a permanent display (or multiple displays) of interpretive materials concerning the history of Aldersly in the N. Northern California Danish -American community and the architectural features of the Aldersly Retirement Community campus as designed in the 1961-1968 master plan by master architect Rex Whitaker Allen. Interpretation of the site's history shall be supervised by an architectural historian or historian who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards. The high-quality interpretive display(s) shall be installed within the project site boundaries, made of durable, all-weather materials, and positioned to allow for high public visibility and interactivity. In addition to narrative text, the interpretative display(s) may include, but are not limited to, a display of photographs, news articles, memorabilia, drawings, and/or video. A proposal describing the general parameters of the interpretive program shall be approved by the Planning Division's staff prior to issuance of building permits. The content, media, and other characteristics of the interpretive display shall be approved by the Planning Division's staff prior to issuance of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy. CULA c: Salvage. Prior to any demolition or construction activities that would remove character -defining features of a resource that is a contributor to the historic resource on the project site, the project sponsor shall consult with a qualified architectural historian or historian who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards as to whether any such features may be salvaged, in whole or in part, during demolition/alteration. The project sponsor shall submit a list of materials that will be salvaged and reused either on the site or within the interpretive program to the Planning Division for review prior to the beginning of demolition on the site. The project sponsor shall make a good faith effort to salvage materials of historical interest to be utilized as part of the interpretative program. No materials shall be salvaged or removed until HABS/HALS-style recordation and documentation are completed. Significance with Mitigation: Significant and Unavoidable. While the Project proposes to relocate some of the character -defining features and contributing elements of the landscape, and Mitigation Measure CUL -1 would lessen the impact associated with the proposed project; it would not reduce the impact to a less -than- significant level. The historic resource would lose its integrity and ability to convey its significance. Therefore, the impact on the historic resource would be significant and unavoidable. 9 V. FINDINGS FOR SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS REDUCED TO A LESS -THAN - SIGNIFICANT LEVEL BY MITIGATION MEASURES The Final EIR identifies the following significant impacts associated with the Project. It is hereby determined that the impacts addressed through the corresponding mitigation measures will be reduced to a less than significant level or avoided by adopting and incorporating these mitigation measures into the Project. As explained in Section VII, below, the findings in Section V are based on the Final EIR, including the discussion and analysis contained in Appendix B of which is incorporated in full by this reference, and as identified in the Summary Chapter, Table S-1, Summary of Impacts and Mitigation Measures of the Final EIR and supported by evidence contained within the entirety of the record of proceedings. A. IMPACT CUL -2: Implementation of the Proposed Project has the potential to cause a significant impact to a previously unidentified archaeological resource pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5. B. IMPACT CUL -3: Ground -disturbing activities during Project construction could encounter human remains, the disturbance of which could result in a significant impact under CEQA. (Less than Significant with Mitigation) C. IMPACT TCR -1: Ground -disturbing activities as a result of the Proposed Project could encounter Tribal Cultural Resources, the disturbance of which could result in a significant impact under CEQA. As discussed in Chapter 3 and summarized in Table S-1 in the Summary Chapter of the Final EIR, although construction of the proposed project would have no impact on known tribal cultural resources, there is a possibility that previously unidentified resources and subsurface deposits are present within the Project area. Implementation of Mitigation Measure TCR -1, which requires a survey of the site by trained Human Remains Detection Dogs, would avoid or reduce this impact to a less -than- significant level. D. IMPACT AQ -1. The project could result in a cumulatively considerable net increase a criteria pollutant for which the project region is non — attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (Appendix B - Checklist Item Ill.b.). As discussed in Appendix B, Topics Not Requiring Detailed Environmental Analysis and summarized in Table S-1 in the Summary Chapter of the Final EIR, the project could result in a cumulatively considerable net increase a criteria pollutant for which the project region is non — attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard. Implementation of Mitigation Measure AQ -1, which requires BAAQMD Best Management Practices (BMPs) be implemented during construction would avoid or reduce this impact to a less -than - significant level. 10 E. IMPACT AQ -2. The project could expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations (Appendix B - Checklist Item Ills.) As discussed in Appendix B, Topics Not Requiring Detailed Environmental Analysis and summarized in Table S-1 in the Summary Chapter of the Final EIR, the project could expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations. Implementation of Mitigation Measure AQ -2, which requires construction equipment to minimize exhaust emissions would avoid or reduce this impact to a less -than- significant level. F. IMPACT 13I0-1. The project has the potential to disturb active bird nests on the Project site. (Checklist Item IV.a.). As discussed in Appendix B, Topics Not Requiring Detailed Environmental Analysis and summarized in Table S-1 in the Summary Chapter of the Final EIR, the project has the potential to disturb active bird nests during construction. Implementation of Mitigation Measure BIO -1, which requires avoidance of nesting birds in compliance with State and federal regulations, would avoid or reduce this impact to a less -than- significant level. As discussed in the Final EIR Response to Comments from California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), no bats or indicators of on-site roosting (e.g., guano/staining) were observed by the biologist during their site visit. For these reasons, bats (including special -status species) are unlikely to roost on the project site. Though not required, the following measures recommended by CDFW are adopted and included in the MMRP: Mitigation Measure BIO -2 (Roosting Bat Habitat Assessment and Surveys): Prior to any tree removal, a qualified biologist shall conduct a habitat assessment for bats. A qualified bat biologist shall have: 1) at least two years of experience conducting bat surveys that resulted in detections for relevant species, such as pallid bat, with verified project names, dates, and references, and 2) experience with relevant equipment used to conduct bat surveys. The habitat assessment shall be conducted a minimum of 30 to 90 days prior to tree removal and shall include a visual inspection of potential roosting features (e.g., cavities, crevices in wood and bark, exfoliating bark, suitable canopy for foliage roosting species). If suitable habitat trees are found, or bats are observed, mitigation measure BIO -3 shall be implemented. Mitigation Measure 13I0-3 (Roosting Bat Tree Protections): If the qualified biologist identifies potential bat habitat trees, then tree trimming and tree removal shall not proceed unless the following occurs: 1) a qualified biologist conducts night emergence surveys or completes visual examination of roost features that establishes absence of roosting bats, or 2) tree trimming and tree removal occurs only during seasonal periods of bat activity, from approximately March 1 through April 15 and September 1 through October 15, and tree removal occurs using the two-step removal process. Two-step 11 tree removal shall be conducted over two consecutive days. The first day (in the afternoon), under the direct supervision and instruction by a qualified biologist with experience conducting two-step tree removal, limbs and branches shall be removed by a tree cutter using chainsaws only; limbs with cavities, crevices or deep bark fissures shall be avoided. The second day the entire tree shall be removed. G. IMPACT GEO-1. The project site is subject to earthquakes that have the potential to induce strong to very strong ground shaking. Strong shaking during an earthquake can result in ground failure such as that associated with soil liquefaction, lateral spreading, cyclic densification, and landsliding. (Checklist Item Vll.a.ii) As discussed in Appendix B, Topics Not Requiring Detailed Environmental Analysis and summarized in Table S-1 in the Summary Chapter of the Final EIR, the project could. Implementation of Mitigation Measure GEO-1, which requires that seismic design coefficients and spectral accelerations shall be consistent with the findings presented in Geotechnical Investigation prepared by Rockridge Geotechnical, August 31, 2020, and that a final geotechnical investigation be prepared by a qualified and licensed geotechnical engineer would avoid or reduce this impact to a less -than- significant level. H. IMPACT GEO-2. The project has the potential to destroy a unique paleontological resource during construction and earthmoving activities (Checklist Item Vll.f.) As discussed in Appendix B, Topics Not Requiring Detailed Environmental Analysis and summarized in Table S-1 in the Summary Chapter of the Final EIR, the project project has the potential to destroy a unique paleontological resource during construction and earthmoving activities. Implementation of Mitigation Measure GEO-2, which establishes protocols in the event that fossils or other paleontological resources are encountered during project subsurface construction, would avoid or reduce this impact to a less -than- significant level. I. IMPACT N0I-1. Noise generated by construction activities, including demolition, could exceed the 90 dBA Leq noise level established in SRMC Section 8.13.050 As discussed in Appendix B, Topics Not Requiring Detailed Environmental Analysis and summarized in Table S-1 in the Summary Chapter of the Final EIR, noise generated by project construction activities, including demolition, could exceed the 90 dBA Leq noise level established in the San Rafael Municipal Code. Implementation of Mitigation Measure NOI-1, which requires that a Construction Noise Management Plan (CNMP) prepared by a qualified acoustical consultant to identify noise attenuation measures, including but not limited to installing `Pa temporary noise barriers, would reduce this impact to a less -than- significant level. VI. ALTERNATIVES The Final EIR analyzed three alternatives to the Project. The Project objectives are listed in Chapter 2 (Project Description) of the Draft EIR; the potentially significant environmental effects of the Project, including feasible mitigation measures identified to avoid these impacts, are analyzed in Chapter 3 of the Draft EIR; and the alternatives are described in detail in Chapter 5 (Alternatives to the Proposed Project) of the Draft EIR. Brief summaries of the alternatives are provided below. A brief discussion of the Environmentally Superior Alternative follows the summaries of the alternatives. As explained in Section VII, below, the findings in this Section VI are based on the Final EIR, the discussion and analysis in which is hereby incorporated in full by this reference. 1. Alternative 1: No Project Alternative: Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(e)(1), the No Project Alternative is required as part of the "reasonable range of alternatives" to allow decision makers to compare the impacts of approving the proposed project with the impacts of taking no action or not approving the proposed project. Consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(e)(3)(B), when the project is a development project on identifiable property, the "no project" alternative is the circumstance under which the project does not proceed. Under Alternative 1, the Aldersly campus would remain in its existing condition and would not be subject to redevelopment. Aldersly would continue to operate as it currently exists and no new construction would occur within the Project site, except for repairs and interior renovations to existing buildings. The number of Independent Living units, assisted living/memory care beds and skilled nursing beds would be essentially unchanged (55 Independent Living units, 35 Assisted Living/Memory Care beds, and 20 Skilled Nursing beds). A. Comparison of Environmental Impacts: There would be no redevelopment of Aldersly's campus under Alternative 1. Aldersly would continue to operate as is which would include ongoing minor repairs and renovations of existing buildings. The Aldersly campus would remain eligible for listing in the California Register and there would be no other environmental impacts under this alternative. B. Facts in Support of Finding: Alternative 1 would not meet the Project's overarching goals or objectives. Under this alternative, Aldersly would not add or update existing independent living units, construct a dedicated outdoor garden for the Memory Care Center or other outdoor spaces for connecting with nature, create a core active space to promote social interaction, or add a second dining venue and resident lounge/gathering spaces. These objectives 13 are necessary for meeting the Project's overarching goals of maintaining Aldersly as a boutique residential community for older adults while providing the flexibility to evolve to meet the current and future needs of residents. These objectives would also ensure that Aldersly remains a financially sustainable community for the foreseeable future. The new and updated independent living units responds to changing market demand for older adult independent living and is therefore needed to attract new residents. The dedicated outdoor garden would enhance Aldersly's new and innovative Memory Care Center. The improved outdoor spaces, new core active space, and second dining venue and resident lounge/gathering spaces provide additional amenities to retain and attract new residents. Alternative 1 would also not meet the objectives of improving site accessibility for staff and residents, providing additional parking, or maximizing Aldersly's development footprint within established land use and design controls for the Project site. Overall, under Alternative 1, there would be uncertainty as to whether Aldersly may be redeveloped and modernized to ensure its ongoing and future viability as a non-profit community for older adults. C. Finding: Accordingly, City Council hereby finds Alternative 1 to be infeasible for the preceding policy, social, and economic reasons and because it would not satisfy the Project's objectives. Each of these reasons would separately and independently provide sufficient justification for rejecting Alternative 1 2. Alternative 2: On -Site Preservation Alternative: Alternative 2 would limit redevelopment to the southern edge of the Aldersly campus. Marselisborg, Graasten, and Liselund, all of which are contributing buildings to the historic resource, would be demolished and replaced with a new building fronting Mission Avenue that would include a parking garage, administrative space, and 35 independent living units. Frederiksborg would also be demolished and replaced with a two-story building containing ground floor indoor parking and six independent living units. As with the Project, many of the contributing landscape features of the historic resource would be relocated, altered, or removed to accommodate the independent living building along Mission Avenue. The Minor Building would be demolished and replaced with the outdoor garden for the Memory Care Center. The new service connector building would not be constructed between Rosenborg and Kronborg. Alternative 2 would also not construct the independent living building in the northwest portion of the campus thereby preserving contributing buildings Amalienborg and Sorgenfri. In total, four of the nine contributing buildings would be demolished. The net increase of residential and administrative space under Alternative 2 would be 53,390 sq. ft. and the average size of the independent living units would be 830 sq. ft. A. Comparison of Environmental Impacts: Since Alternative 2 proposes less development than the Project, net increase of 53,390 sq. ft. versus the Project's net increase of 64,260 sq. ft., this smaller project would generally reduce the Project's environmental effects to some degree. For example, air 14 quality, greenhouse gas emissions, noise, and biological resource impacts would be reduced due to there being less construction (although these impacts are less than significant for both the Project and Alternative 2). Alternative 2 would also reduce the impact to the historic resource but the impact would remain significant and unavoidable. Even though an additional two contributing buildings would be preserved, the Project site would still lose its historic integrity and ability to convey its significance due to demolition of four of the nine contributing buildings and relocating, altering, or removing most of the contributing landscape features. B. Facts in Support of Finding: Alternative 2 meets some but not all of the Project's objectives. For instance, the alternative would add a second dining venue, create a dedicated outdoor garden for the Memory Care center, and define a core active space for residents to promote social interaction. The alternative would add independent living units and increase their overall size, but not to the extent the Project would (830 sq. ft. in Alternative 2 compared to 968 sq. ft. in the Project). These smaller independent living units would be less attractive to potential new residents and so the alternative falls short of the objective to ensure Aldersly can operate in a financially sustainably manner for the foreseeable future. The alternative also would not maximize Aldersly's development footprint within existing land use controls. Furthermore, Alternative 2 would not meet the objectives of improving site accessibility as construction would be focused solely in the southern portion of campus. The desired improvements to the delivery area and back of house spaces with a connector building between Rosenborg and Kronborg would not be constructed. Although Alternative 2 would further reduce the Project's less than significant impacts, the impact to the historic resource would remain significant and unavoidable as four of the nine contributing buildings would be demolished and the majority of contributing landscape features would be relocated, altered, or removed. C. Finding: Accordingly, the City Council hereby finds Alternative 2 to be infeasible for the preceding policy, social, and economic reasons and because it would not satisfy the Project's objectives. Each of these reasons would separately and independently provide sufficient justification for rejecting Alternative 2. 3. Alternative 3: Off -Site Alternative Alternative 3 would locate all new development on the eastern end of the Aldersly campus and on two parcels owned by Aldersly (121 and 123 Union Street) adjacent to the northeast corner of campus at Belle Avenue and Union Street. The only contributing buildings that would be demolished under Alternative 3 are the Minor Building and Liselund. Seven contributing buildings and seven contributing landscape features would remain intact. Rosenborg, a non-contributing building constructed in 2004 that currently houses assisted living and memory care facilities 15 and Liselund would be demolished and replaced with a new building with two to four stories spanning from the two adjacent parcels on Union Street down to Mission Avenue. This new building would accommodate 41 parking spaces, 15 assisted living units, 15 memory care units, and 42 independent living units. The Minor Building would be replaced with an outdoor landscaped area. As Rosenborg contains a parking garage with 30 spaces, the majority of on-site parking spaces would be temporarily eliminated during the construction process. The net increase of residential and administrative space under Alternative 3 would be 46,730 sq. ft. and the average size of the independent living units would be 764 sq. ft. A. Comparison of Environmental Impacts: Alternative 3 would retain the majority of the buildings and landscaping elements that contribute to the historic district thereby reducing the significant impact to less than significant. Accordingly, the campus would retain its eligibility for the California Register. Alternative 3 would result in a net increase of 46,730 sq. ft. of residential and administrative space whereas the Project would increase residential and administrative space by 64,260 sq. ft. As such, construction related environmental impacts under Alternative 3 may be somewhat reduced. However, some construction impacts will be increased. In particular, development on the two adjacent parcels will be in closer proximity to existing single family homes on Belle Avenue and Union Street, as compared to the Project, which could increase air quality and noise impacts. Alternative 3 would also require more earthwork than the Project, although with implementation of BMPs, a construction management plan, and compliance with the noise ordinance, impacts would remain less than significant. B. Facts in Support of Finding: Alternative 3 meets some but not all of the Project objectives. The new building replacing Rosenborg would include a second dining venue and gathering/lounge spaces and the Minor Building would be replaced with the outdoor garden for the Memory Care Center. The alternative would provide larger independent units than exist today, but the average unit size would be even smaller than the independent living units under Alternative 2 and therefore be less marketable to potential residents. This would impact Aldersly's ability to remain a financially sustainable community. Alternative 3 would also require demolishing Rosenborg which is a relatively new building constructed in 2004 and was remodeled in the past year to house Aldersly's state -of -the art Memory Care Center and assisted living facilities. Rosenborg, as recently upgraded, was a major investment by Aldersly and demolishing it well before the end of its useful life would add significant costs not accounted for and is likely a financially infeasible option. Demolishing Rosenborg would be impractical and may not be an option that the California Department of Social Services ("CDSS") would approve. As a licensed Residential Care Facility for the Elderly, Aldersly is required to obtain approval from CDSS for major modifications to its facilities. Since Rosenborg houses both the Memory Care Center and assisted living 16 facilities, demolishing it would require displacing and temporarily relocating up to 35 residents across both programs. Relocating these residents on campus would be extremely challenging given the constraints of existing facilities combined with construction of the project and the special requirements and needs of these residents. It would also be very disruptive since these residents have medical conditions requiring stable, routine, and consistent care. As such, Alternative 3 may be infeasible because it would be impractical and disruptive to temporarily relocate up to 35 assisted living and memory care residents and may not receive approval from CDSS. Alternative 3 also would not improve site accessibility and access to campus amenities, define a core active space for residents, or provide additional parking spaces, all of which are Project objectives. In fact, the number of overall parking spaces would be reduced by three. The alternative would also not make the most of Aldersly's development footprint, opting to instead expand onto the adjacent parcels which would require rezoning. Development on the two parcels would result in additional impacts to the adjacent neighbors on Belle Avenue and Union Street. The new building replacing Rosenborg would be taller and have greater massing and would therefore further impact the views and shadows of the single-family homes situated on Union Street and directly east of the campus. C. Finding: Accordingly, the City Council hereby finds Alternative 3 to be infeasible for the preceding legal, social, economic, and other considerations and because it would not satisfy the Project's objectives. Each of the reasons described above would separately and independently provide sufficient justification for rejecting Alternative 3. 4. ENVIRONMENTALLY SUPERIOR ALTERNATIVE The CEQA Guidelines (Section 15126.6(e)) require the identification of an environmentally superior alternative to the Proposed Project. If it is determined that the "no project" alternative would be the environmentally superior alternative, then the EIR shall also identify an environmentally superior alternative among the other project alternatives (Section 15126.6[e][2]). To determine the environmentally superior alternative, the impacts of all the alternatives were compared to determine which alternative would have the least adverse effects. Alternative 1, the "no project" alternative, is the environmentally superior alternative to the Proposed Project because it would avoid all of the significant impacts associated with the Proposed Project. Alternative 3 would retain the majority of the buildings and landscaping elements that contribute to the historic resource thereby reducing the significant impact to the historic resource to less than significant. However, as noted above, Alternative 3 would meet fewer of the project sponsor's objectives. The new building replacing Rosenborg would include a second dining venue and gathering/lounge spaces and the Minor Building would be replaced with the outdoor garden for the Memory Care Center. The alternative would provide larger independent units than exist today, but iF the average unit size would be even smaller than the independent living units under Alternative 2 and therefore be less marketable to potential residents. This would impact Aldersly's ability to remain a financially sustainable community. Alternative 3 would also require demolishing Rosenborg which is a relatively new building constructed in 2004 and was remodeled in the past year to house Aldersly's state -of -the art Memory Care Center and assisted living facilities. Rosenborg, as recently upgraded, was a major investment by Aldersly and demolishing it well before the end of its useful life would add significant costs not accounted for and is likely a financially infeasible option. As noted above, demolishing Rosenborg may not be an option that the California Department of Social Services ("CDSS") would approve. As a licensed Residential Care Facility for the Elderly, Aldersly is required to obtain approval from CDSS for major modifications to its facilities. Since Rosenborg houses both the Memory Care Center and assisted living facilities, demolishing it would require displacing and temporarily relocating up to 35 residents across both programs. Relocating these residents on campus would be extremely challenging given the constraints of existing facilities combined with construction of the project and the special requirements and needs of these residents. It would also be very disruptive since these residents have medical conditions requiring stable, routine, and consistent care. As such, Alternative 3 may be infeasible because it would be impractical and disruptive to temporarily relocate up to 35 assisted living and memory care residents and may not receive approval from CDSS. Alternative 3 also would not improve site accessibility and access to campus amenities, define a core active space for residents, or provide additional parking spaces, all of which are Project objectives. VII. STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS As stated above and determined in the foregoing findings, the City has determined that the Project would result in a significant and unavoidable impact to an historic resource and there is no feasible mitigation or alternative to reduce the impact to less than significant. The City has determined all other impacts to be less than significant. Section 15093(b) of the State CEQA Guidelines provides that when the decision of the public agency results in the occurrence of significant impacts that are not avoided or substantially lessened, the agency must state in writing the reasons to support its actions (see also Public Resources Code Section 21081(b)). Accordingly, the City Council specifically adopts and makes this Statement of Overriding Considerations. The Project has mitigated the significant impacts on the historic resource to the extent feasible and finds that the remaining significant and unavoidable impact is acceptable in light of the economic, legal, environmental, social, technological, or other considerations described below because the benefits of the Project outweigh its significant adverse environmental effect, and that the adverse environmental effect is therefore acceptable. The City Council finds that each of the overriding considerations set forth below is a separate and independent basis for finding that the benefits of the Project outweigh its significant and unavoidable impact and warrants approval of the Project. Based 18 on the substantial evidence in the record, including the public record of proceedings as well as oral and written testimony at all public hearings on the Project to date, the City Council hereby determines that implementation of the Project would result in the following substantial benefits: 1. Promote City Goals and Policies: The Project promotes the following goals and policies of the City's General Plan: a. Gaal EDI -5. An Age -Friendly Community. Enhance the quality of life for older adults in San Rafael. The Project supports the City's goal of serving older adults and enhancing their quality of life. The new and expanded independent living units and other improvements would attract new residents and enhance the living experience of existing residents. The second dining venue, lounge and gathering spaces, and core active space would provide additional areas for residents to meet and socialize. The outdoor garden for the Memory Care Center and other outdoor experiences would elevate the campus' outdoor living experience. The site accessibility improvements would make it easier for residents to move about the campus. b. Policy H-13: Senior Housing. Encourage housing that meets the needs of San Rafael's older population, particularly affordable units and affordable care facilities that foster aging within the community. Support development that provides housing options so that seniors can find suitable housing to rent or purchase. The Project would result in a net increase of fourteen (14) independent living units for seniors (from 55 units to 69 units) and would continue to provide 35 assisted living/memory care beds and 20 skilled nursing beds. In response to market demand, the new and remodeled Independent Living units would be larger than Aldersly's existing independent living units and include amenities such as a full kitchen and in -unit washer and dryer. Independent living units provide older adults the option to live in a supported community with the experience of living on their own. These independent living units are also an option for older adults seeking to downsize from their single-family homes. c. Policy LU -1.3: Land Use and Climate Change. Focus future housing and commercial development in areas where alternatives to driving are most viable and shorter trip lengths are possible, especially around transit stations, near services, and on sites with frequent bus service. This can reduce the greenhouse gas emissions associated with motor vehicle trips and support the City's climate action goals. Policy M-3.8: Land Use and VMT: Encourage higher -density employment and residential uses near major transit hubs such as Downtown San Rafael, recognizing the potential for VMT reduction in 19 areas where there are attractive alternatives to driving, concentrations of complementary activities, and opportunities for shorter trips between different uses The Project would increase the overall density of the Aldersly campus with 35 modernized and larger independent living units and other amenities such as the second dining venue and lounge/gathering spaces. The Project is within one half mile of the San Rafael Transit Center which is served by SMART, Marin Transit, Golden Gate Transit, and Sonoma County Transit, and is near commercial and retail uses in Montecito Plaza downtown San Rafael. d. Policy EV -3.3- Economically Productive Use of Land. Encourage the use of the City's commercial and industrial land supply in a way that creates positive fiscal impacts, economic opportunities for local businesses and property owners, employment growth, and services for San Rafael residents. The Project makes the most of the development potential of the Aldersly campus. The modernized and larger independent living units and other improvements would ensure that Aldersly can operate sustainably as a non-profit into the future and continue to provide a home for older adults and retain its employees. 2. Increase Opportunities for Older Adults to Remain in the Community: The Project would provide a total of 35 modernized and larger independent living units designed to meet the current and future needs of older adults in the City and the region. Marin County has the highest median age of any County in the Bay Area and it is projected that persons over 65 will be the fastest growing population during the time horizon of the City's 2040 General Plan. Overall trends show that more people are growing into their 80s and beyond thereby increasing demand for community and assisted living. A significant benefit of the Project is to expand opportunities for older adults to remain in the community. 3. Ensure Financial Stability for Aldersly in the Long -Term: The Project would ensure that Aldersly remains a financially sustainable non-profit community for the foreseeable future. Older adults are not looking for housing that met their parents' needs. To meet the market demand of today's older adults, Aldersly needs to increase the overall size of its independent living units and offer amenities such as full kitchens, in -unit laundry, open floor plans, and larger windows that allow in more natural light. These upgrades are needed to ensure that Aldersly can remain competitive and operate at financially sustainably. Not pursuing these improvements would threaten the long-term viability Aldersly. Aldersly is an important part of the San Rafael community, so a key benefit of the Project is ensuring its long-term financial stability. 20 4. Maintain and Enhance the Aldersly Experience: The Project would maintain and enhance Aldersly as a boutique residential community for older people with an over 100 -year history as a contributing and valued member of the San Rafael community. Aldersly is known for its long-time connection to nature and outdoor living in keeping with the original hygee (Danish for the experience of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders feelings of contentment and well-being) spirit of its community. The Project would enhance the outdoor living experience for residents by establishing an accessible dedicated outdoor garden area for the Memory Care Center, improving the other outdoor spaces on campus with lush landscaping, and creating a core active space for residents that promotes social interaction and movement around the campus. The second dining venue and resident lounge/gathering spaces would provide additional space for residents to gather and socialize in an inviting and comfortable setting. The campus is also difficult to traverse due to its hillside location. The Project would address this issue by improving overall site accessibility including ADA improvements. Given Aldersly's long history within the San Rafael community, a key benefit of the Project is maintaining and enhancing the unique and special Aldersly experience. 5. Efficient Development that Respects the Existing Neighborhood: The Project would provide much needed senior housing within Aldersly's existing development footprint. The Aldersly campus is located within the Montecito/Happy Valley Neighborhood which is one of San Rafael's oldest neighborhoods and is adjacent to downtown San Rafael. The neighborhood consists of a mixture of residential, retail, and community services. Aldersly is situated in a transitional area from retail and community services uses to single family homes. The Project efficiently uses existing developed land to redevelop Aldersly while maintaining the balance of land uses and layout of development in this established neighborhood. For instance, the Project's largest building, the independent living building fronting Mission Avenue is oriented towards existing commercial and multi -family land uses and away from, to the extent possible, nearby single-family homes. 6. Development of an Existing and Transit -Adjacent Site: The Project would redevelop portions of Aldersly's campus which is located in an urbanized area of the City directly adjacent to downtown San Rafael and within a half a mile of the San Rafael Transit Center. Development near transit provides a number of environmental benefits particularly by reducing air quality and greenhouse gas emissions by reducing overall vehicle trips. Transit oriented development can also lead better to social and health outcomes, encouraging people to walk, ride their bikes, and/or use public transit. Projects located near transit can also contribute to reducing vehicle traffic congestion. Transit oriented development also naturally encourages more connected communities by concentrating development around transit locations. As such, a key benefit of the Project is its proximity to transit which provides the additional benefits discussed above. 21 VIII. ADOPTION OF THE MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORITNG PROGRAM The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council adopt the mitigation measures set forth for the Project in the Final EIR and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference. IX. SEVERABILITY If any term, provision, or portion of these findings or the application of these findings to a particular situation is held by a court to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of these findings, ortheir application to other actions related to the Project, shall continue in full force and effect unless amended or modified by the City. The foregoing Resolution was adopted at the regular meeting of the City of San Rafael Planning Commission held on the _ day of November 2022.

The Development Plan and Planned Development (PD) District amendment are consistent with General Plan 2040, adopted Montecito/Happy Valley Neighborhood Plan and other applicable City plans and policies in that: a) The project is consistent with the High -Density Residential designation on the General Plan 2040 Land use Map, and it supports the City's goal of serving older adults and enhancing their quality of life as called for in General Plan Goal EDI -6: An Age -Friendly Community. Enhance the quality of life for older adults in San Rafael. The new and expanded independent living units and other improvements would attract new residents and enhance the living experience of existing residents. The second dining venue, lounge and gathering spaces, and core active space would provide additional areas for residents to meet and socialize. The outdoor garden for the Memory Care Center and other outdoor experiences would elevate the campus' outdoor living experience. The site accessibility improvements would make it easier for residents to move about the campus. b) The project would implement Housing Policy H-13: Senior Housing providing housing options that meet the needs of San Rafael's older population The Project would increase the City's supply of independent living units in a residential facility that provides additional services for older adults. Independent living units provide older adults the option to live in a supported community with the experience of living on their own. These independent living units are also an option for older adults seeking to downsize from their single- family homes. c) The Project would implement General Plan Policy EV -3.3: Economically Productive Use of Land. by making the most of the development potential of the Aldersly campus. The modernized and larger independent living units and other improvements would ensure that Aldersly can operate sustainably as a non-profit into the future and continue to provide a home for older adults and retain its employees. d) Policy LU -1.3: Land Use and Climate Change. Focus future housing and commercial development in areas where alternatives to driving are most viable and shorter trip lengths are possible, especially around transit stations, near services, and on sites with frequent bus service. This can reduce the greenhouse gas emissions associated with motor vehicle trips and support the City's climate action goals and e) Policy M-3.8: Land Use and VMT: Encourage higher -density employment and residential uses near major transit hubs such as Downtown San Rafael, recognizing the potential for VMT reduction in areas where there are attractive alternatives to driving, concentrations of complementary activities, and opportunities for shorter trips between different uses. The Project would N increase the overall density of the Aldersly campus with 35 modernized and larger independent living units and other amenities such as the second dining venue and lounge/gathering spaces. The Project is within one half mile of the San Rafael Transit Center which is served by SMART, Marin Transit, Golden Gate Transit, and Sonoma County Transit, and is near commercial and retail uses in Montecito Plaza downtown San Rafael. f) A Parking Management Strategy will be implemented as part of the project to increase the on-site parking capacity in a way that meets residents and business needs. (Policy LU -3.7: On -Street Parking). g) The project would comply with Policy CDP -4.8: Scale Transitions and Residential Neighborhood Policy RES -1, which requires that new developments be harmoniously integrated into existing neighborhoods in terms of density, intensity and design. The project would be consistent with the applicable policies of the Montecito/Happy Valley Neighborhood Plan in that proposed new buildings have been located and designed to minimize impacts on adjacent residential properties and maintain existing view corridors and not interfere with scenic vistas as viewed from adjacent public areas. The proposed four-story Mission Avenue Independent Living Building includes design features that break up the mass of the building. The top floor is recessed from the street -side and a lighter exterior color is proposed to visually reduce the height. Variations in form, material, and colors are utilized to break up mass and roof line; vertical elements are used to break up the south fagade along Mission Avenue. All proposed parking areas, loading areas, and trash facilities will be appropriately screened. The proposed project includes a wooden fence along the north, east and west sides of the property, and proposes landscape screening in the new parking area (east driveway) that will provide a buffer between the Aldersly campus and residential neighbors to the west at 304 Mission and along Union Street. In addition, improvements proposed for the north side of the campus adjacent to Belle Avenue include a new service building and enclosed delivery area, as well as a new enclosure for solid waste/recyclables/compost (Policy LU -3.6: Transitions Between Uses). Furthermore, on December 7, 2021, the Design Review Board recommended approval of the project with the changes made to address the Board's concerns regarding the bioretention areas and the scale of the Mission Avenue Independent Living building. h) The project design has been evaluated in a variety of technical reports, including air quality, geotechnical, greenhouse gas, hydrology, and noise; and through implementation of conditions of approval and mitigation measures would be consistent with Health and Safety Policies contained in General Plan 2040 and the San Rafael Municipal Code. 2. The applicant has demonstrated that public facilities are provided to serve the anticipated population in that the project development is well within the density limits anticipated by the General Plan 2040, the site is served by San Rafael Sanitation District and Marin Municipal Water District, and the City's Police, Fire and Public Works Departments have reviewed the project and determined that services are available. The accompanying project applications are proposed to be conditioned accordingly. 3. The development is improved by deviations from typical Zoning Ordinance property development and parking standards by increasing the number of on-site parking spaces; and providing improved loading facilities on Belle Avenue. 4. The auto, bicycle and pedestrian traffic system is adequately designed for circulation needs and public safety in that internal access and circulation meet city standards and walkways are provided from parking areas with handicap parking available in the appropriate locations. Emergency vehicle access is provided to serve the proposed development, in compliance with City Public Works and Fire Department standards. 5. The public health, safety and general welfare are served by the adoption of the proposed amendment in that it implements the General Plan and the Development Plan conforms with City standards as discussed in Findings 1 through 4 above. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City of San Rafael recommends that the City Council rescind PD1 775 and adopt an ordinance amending the Zoning Map (ZC20-001) to reclassify certain real property from Planned Development PD 1775 district to a revised PD District with an adopted Development Plan for the Aldersly Retirement Community located at 326 and 308 Mission Avenue subject to the Development Standards outlined in Exhibit "B" of the ordinance, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

The new and expanded independent living units and other improvements would attract new residents and enhance the living experience of existing residents. The second dining venue, lounge and gathering spaces, and core active space would provide additional areas for residents to meet and socialize. The outdoor garden for the Memory Care Center and other outdoor experiences would elevate the campus' outdoor living experience. The site accessibility improvements would make it easier for residents to move about the campus. c) The project would implement Housing Policy H-13: Senior Housing providing housing options that meet the needs of San Rafael's older population. The Project would increase the City's supply of independent living units in a residential facility that provides additional services for older adults. Independent living units provide older adults the option to live in a supported community with the experience of living on their own. The 14 net new independent living units are also an option for older adults seeking to downsize from their single-family homes, and would contribute toward meeting the City's regional housing needs allocation (RHNA) by adding to the City's housing inventory. d) The Project would implement General Plan Policy EV -3.3: Economically Productive Use of Land by making the most of the development potential of the Aldersly campus. The project would provide modernized and larger independent living units and other improvements within the footprint of the existing campus that would ensure that Aldersly can remain competitive and operate sustainably as a non-profit into the future and continue to provide a home for older adults and retain its employees. e) Policy LU -1.3: Land Use and Climate Change. The project site is located north and east of the Downtown San Rafael, 0.4 miles from the SMART Downtown San Rafael Station in an area where alternatives to driving are most viable and shorter trip lengths are possible. f) Policy M-3.8: Land Use and VMT: Encourage higher -density employment and residential uses near major transit hubs such as Downtown San Rafael, recognizing the potential for VMT reduction in areas where there are attractive alternatives to driving, concentrations of complementary activities, and opportunities for shorter trips between different uses. The Project would increase the overall density of the Aldersly campus with 35 modernized and larger independent living units and other amenities such as the second dining venue and lounge/gathering spaces. The Project is within one half mile of the San Rafael Transit Center which is served by SMART, Marin Transit, Golden Gate Transit, and Sonoma County Transit, and is near commercial and retail uses in Montecito Plaza downtown San Rafael. g) Policy M-7.6: Off -Street Parking Standards. Maintain off-street parking standards that adequately respond to demand, minimize adverse effects on neighborhoods, avoid future parking problems, and sustain local businesses. Per recent State legislation (AB 2097), minimum parking requirements cannot be imposed or enforced in any residential, commercial, or other development project located within '/ mile of public transit after January 1, 2023. Since construction will not commence until after that date, Policy M-7.6 is not applicable to this project. Nevertheless, the project would voluntarily provide eight (8) additional on-site parking spaces over what exists today. In addition, a condition of the Use Permit would require that Aldersly implement a Parking Management Strategy to maximize on-site parking during peak periods and reduce the use of on -street parking in the neighborhood. 2. 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 proposed use, as conditioned, 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.

A permit for the construction of a building or structure is deemed exercised when a valid City building permit, if required, is issued, and construction has lawfully commenced. A permit for the use of a building or a property is exercised when, if required, a valid City business license has been issued, and the permitted use has commenced on the property. 3. Subiect to All Applicable Laws and Regulations. The approved use and/or construction is subject to, and shall comply with, all applicable City Ordinances and laws and regulations of other governmental agencies. Prior to construction, the applicant shall identify and secure all applicable permits from the Building Division, Public Works Department and other affected City divisions and departments. 4. Revocation. The City reserves the right to bring this application up for revocation per SRMC 14.21.150 and as provided in Chapter 14.29 of the San Rafael Zoning Ordinance for any use that is found to be in violation of any of these conditions of approval. 5. Building Permit Required. The applicant shall obtain a building permit prior to any building improvements to meet the requirements per the California Building Code (CBC). Conditions Shall be Printed on Plans. The conditions of this Permit shall be printed on the second sheet of each plan set submitted for a building permit pursuant to this Use Permit, under the title `Use Permit Conditions.' Additional sheets may also be used if the second sheet is not of sufficient size to list all of the conditions. The sheet(s) containing the conditions shall be of the same size as those sheets containing the construction drawings, 8-1/2" by 11" sheets are not acceptable. 6. Development of the site (i.e., the building design and location, scale, architecture, landscaping and similar improvements) shall be completed in accordance with a valid (i.e. not expired) Environmental and Design Review Permit approval. 7. The Master Use Permit shall be subject to the Environmental and Design Review Permit (ED20-051) conditions of approval. Truck delivery schedules to the Aldersly campus shall be coordinated with drop-off and pick-up times at child daycare and schools in the neighborhood to reduce the potential for conflicts on Belle Avenue. 8. Prior to the issuance of an occupancy permit for any new building on the Aldersly campus, a Parking Management Strategy shall be submitted for review and approval by the Director of Public Works and the Director of Community Development. The Parking Management Strategy shall identify strategies and methods to increase on-site parking capacity and reduce the overall demand for parking, particularly during peak parking demand at 2:30 pm on weekdays during the staff shift change. The Parking Management Strategy may include, but is not limited to, the following strategies: a) Support transit use by employees and visitors: Aldersly employees currently have the option of purchasing transit passes before taxes are taken out of their wages, which provides a savings for users. The site is served by a number of transit options as it is less than one-half mile from the San Rafael SMART station and Transit Center. While for most people this is a walkable distance, Aldersly could further encourage transit use by providing van service as needed to transport people to and from these connections. To make transit use a viable option for employees, this may require providing some flexibility in shift times to allow them to make convenient connections. b) Provide public transportation information: As some staff and residents may be unaware of the available public transportation options, providing information about train and bus schedules, accommodations for bicycles on transit vehicles, and the availability of the Marin Emergency Ride Home (ERH) program would support increased transit use. The ERH program, operated by the Transportation Authority of Marin, reimburses rides home in case of an emergency for workers in Marin County who use an alternative transportation option, such as carpooling, vanpooling, public transit, bicycling, or walking. For many people, the availability of this program can make non -vehicle transportation a viable option as it addresses unforeseen circumstances when vehicle transportation may be necessary. c) Offer Car Sharing and Driver Services: The average age of residents in the independent living units is 88 years old and those with cars tend to drive infrequently. By offering car sharing or driver services for errands, appointments, or other trips, these residents may be more inclined to not bring a vehicle and/or relinquish their vehicles and parking spaces. d) Prepare a Valet Parking Plan: Aldersly currently provides valet parking during events. The purpose of the Valet Parking Plan would be to increase on-site parking by up to 13 spaces, as needed during non-event scenarios. The Valet Parking Plan would be approved by the Director of Public Works and the Director of Community Development. e) Install lift system: A parking lift system would enable vehicles to be stacked vertically and expand the on-site parking supply. Given the minimal use of vehicles by most residents, the Aldersly could maneuver vehicles as needed. The Parking Management Strategy shall be implemented prior to occupancy of the Mission Avenue Independent Living building. 9. All biohazardous waste generated on the Aldersly campus, including but not limited to used bandages/dressings, out-of-date prescription medication and sharps/needles shall be stored in appropriate containers until they are picked up and shall be disposed of by a service that is licensed to handle such materials 10. The applicant or permittee shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City or its agents, officers, and employees from any claim, action, or proceeding against the City or its agents, officers, or employees to attack, set aside, void, or annul an approval of the Planning Commission, City Council, Community Development Director, or any other department, committee, or agency of the City concerning a development, variance, permit or land use approval which action is brought within the time period provided for in any applicable statute; provided, however, that the applicant's or permittee's duty to so defend, indemnify, and hold harmless shall be subject to the City's promptly notifying the applicant or permittee of any said claim, action, or proceeding and the City's full cooperation in the applicant's or permittee's defense of said claims, actions, or proceedings.

MITIGATION MEASURES FROM CERTIFIED FINAL EIR AND ADOPTED MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM (MMRP) 79. (Mitigation Measure AQ -1): Best Management Practices. During any construction period ground disturbance, the applicant shall ensure that the project contractor implement measures to control dust and exhaust. Implementation of the measures recommended by BAAQMD and listed below would reduce the air quality impacts associated with grading and new construction to a less -than -significant level. Additional measures are identified to reduce construction equipment exhaust emissions. The contractor shall implement the following BMPs: 1. All exposed surfaces (e.g., parking areas, staging areas, soil piles, graded areas, and unpaved access roads) shall be watered two times per day 2. All haul trucks transporting soil, sand, or other loose material off-site shall be covered. 3. All visible mud or dirt track -out onto adjacent public roads shall be removed using wet power vacuum street sweepers at least once per day. The use of dry power sweeping is prohibited. 4. All vehicle speeds on unpaved roads shall be limited to 15 miles per hour (mph). 5. All roadways, driveways, and sidewalks to be paved shall be completed as soon as possible. Building pads shall be laid as soon as possible after grading unless seeding or soil binders are used. 6. Idling times shall be minimized either by shutting equipment off when not in use or reducing the maximum idling time to 5 minutes (as required by the California airborne toxics control measure Title 13, Section 2485 of California Code of Regulations [CCR]). Clear signage shall be provided for construction workers at all access points. 7. All construction equipment shall be maintained and properly tuned in accordance with manufacturer's specifications. All equipment shall be checked by a certified mechanic and determined to be running in proper condition prior to operation. 8. Post a publicly visible sign with the telephone number and person to contact at the Lead Agency regarding dust complaints. This person shall respond and take corrective action within 48 hours. The Air District's phone number shall also be visible to ensure compliance with applicable regulations. 80. (Mitigation Measure AQ -2) Selection of equipment during construction to minimize emissions. The project sponsor shall achieve a fleet -wide average reduction in DPM exhaust emissions from the onsite, off-road construction equipment by 65 -percent or greater in order to stay below BAAQMD thresholds. One feasible way to achieve this reduction would include the following: 13 1. All diesel -powered off-road equipment, larger than 25 horsepower, operating on the site for more than two days continuously shall, at a minimum, meet U.S. EPA particulate matter emissions standards for Tier 4 engines. Where Tier 4 equipment is not available, exceptions could be made for equipment that includes CARB-certified Level 3 Diesel Particulate Filters or equivalent. Equipment that is electrically powered or uses non -diesel fuels would also meet this requirement. 2. All aerial lifts shall be compressed natural gas (CNG) powered. Alternatively, the applicant can develop a different plan demonstrating that the off-road equipment used onsite to construct the project would achieve a fleet -wide average 65 - percent reduction in diesel particulate matter (DPM) exhaust emissions or greater 81. (Mitigation Measure BIO -1) Avoidance of Nesting Birds. Nests of native birds in active use shall be avoided in compliance with State and federal regulations. Vegetation clearing and construction shall be initiated outside the bird nesting season (February 1 through August 31) or preconstruction surveys shall be conducted by a qualified biologist within a minimum of 300 feet from the project site where access is feasible and no more than seven days prior to any disturbance. If active nests are encountered (i.e., one containing eggs or young), a work -exclusion buffer shall be implemented around the nest commensurate with the nest location and species. In some cases, buffers may be as small as 25 feet for hidden nests (e.g., in tree or building cavities) and/or for urban adapted species; buffers may also extend up to 300 feet for raptors or more sensitive species. No construction activity shall occur within the established buffer until it is determined by a qualified biologist that the young have fledged (that is, left the nest) or the nest has become otherwise inactive (e.g. due to predation). At that time the buffer may be removed and work within the buffer resume. 82. (Mitigation Measure BIO -2) Roosting Bat Habitat Assessment and Surveys: Prior to any tree removal, a qualified biologist shall conduct a habitat assessment for bats. A qualified bat biologist shall have: 1) at least two years of experience conducting bat surveys that resulted in detections for relevant species, such as pallid bat, with verified project names, dates, and references, and 2) experience with relevant equipment used to conduct bat surveys. The habitat assessment shall be conducted a minimum of 30 to 90 days prior to tree removal and shall include a visual inspection of potential roosting features (e.g., cavities, crevices in wood and bark, exfoliating bark, suitable canopy for foliage roosting species). If suitable habitat trees are found, or bats are observed, mitigation measure 13I0-3 shall be implemented 83. (Mitigation Measure BIO -3) Roosting Bat Tree Protections. If the qualified biologist identifies potential bat habitat trees, then tree trimming and tree removal shall not proceed unless the following occurs: 1) a qualified biologist conducts night emergence surveys or completes visual examination of roost features that establishes absence of roosting bats, or 2) tree trimming and tree removal occurs only during seasonal periods of bat activity, from approximately March 1 through April 15 and September 1 through October 15, and tree removal occurs using the two-step removal process. Two-step tree removal shall be conducted over two consecutive days. The first day (in the afternoon), under the direct supervision and instruction by a qualified biologist with experience conducting two-step tree removal, limbs and branches shall be removed by a tree cutter using chainsaws only; limbs with cavities, crevices or deep bark fissures shall be avoided. The second day the entire tree shall be removed. 84. (Mitigation Measure CUL -1) Interpretation and Commemoration of Historic Resources. Prior to issuance of demolition permit(s), the project sponsor shall undertake the 14 following measures to document and provide interpretation, commemoration, and salvage of the historic resources to be demolished, as outlined below - CUL -1a: Documentation. Prior to issuance of demolition permits, the project sponsor shall undertake Historic American Building Survey (HABS)/Historic American Landscape Survey (HALS)—style documentation of the property. The documentation shall be funded by the project sponsor and undertaken by a qualified professional who meets the standards for history, architectural history, or architecture (as appropriate) set forth in the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards (Code of Federal Regulations title 36, part 61). The documentation package created shall consist of the items listed below: • CUL -1a-1: HABS-style Photographs • CUL -la -2- HABS/HALS-style Historical Report ■ CUL -la -3: HALS-style Site Plan • CUL -1a-4: Video Documentation The documentation materials shall be offered to state, regional, and local repositories, including but not limited to, the Northwest Information Center (NWIC)-California Historical Resource Information System, San Rafael Public Library, the Marin County Free Library's Anne T. Kent California Room, and the Marin History Museum. Materials will either be provided in digital or hard copy formats depending on the capacity and preference of the repository. CUL -1a-1: HABS-style Photographs. Digital photographs will be taken of the contributing buildings and landscape elements and the overall character and setting of the historic resource. All digital photography shall be conducted according to current National Park Service standards as specified in the National Register Photo Policy Factsheet (updated May 2013). The photography shall be undertaken by a qualified professional with demonstrated experience in documentation photography. Large format negatives are not required. The scope of the digital photographs shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Division's staff for concurrence. Photograph views for the data set shall include contextual views of the site and each contributing landscape element and building; elevations of each fagade of each building; and detail views of character -defining features. All photographs shall be referenced on a photographic key map or site plan. The photographic key shall show the photograph number with an arrow to indicate the direction of the view. CUL -la -2: HABS/HALS-style Historical Report. A written historical narrative and report will be produced that meets the HABS/HALS Historical Report Guidelines. This HABS/HALS-style Historical Report may be based on the documentation provided in the 2017 Historic Resource Evaluation for the site and will include historic photographs and drawings, if available. The written history shall follow the standard outline format that begins with a statement of significance for the historic district, describes the architectural and historical context of the district, and includes descriptions of each contributing building and landscape feature. CUL -1a-3: HALS-style Site Plan. A HALS-style site plan shall be prepared that depicts the existing sizes, scale, dimensions, and relative locations of the contributing landscape elements and buildings related to the historic resource. Particular attention will be paid to the arrangement and plantings of landscape features that are contributing resources to the historic resource. Documentation of all plantings is not required, but depiction of the locations and types of mature trees, and designed hardscape and landscape features shall be included. CUL -1a-4: Video Recordation. Video recordation shall be undertaken prior to the 15 issuance of demolition permits. The project sponsor shall undertake a video documenting the historic resource and its setting. The documentation shall be conducted by a professional videographer, preferably one with experience recording architectural resources. The documentation shall be narrated by a qualified professional who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards for history, architectural history, or architecture (as appropriate). The documentation shall include as much information as possible—using visuals in combination with narration—about the materials, construction methods, current condition, historic use, historic context, and historic significance of the historic resource. The video documentation shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Division's staff prior to issuance of demolition permits. CUL -1b: Interpretation. The project sponsor shall provide a permanent display (or multiple displays) of interpretive materials concerning the history of Aldersly in the Northern California Danish -American community and the architectural features of the Aldersly Retirement Community campus as designed in the 1961-1968 master plan by master architect Rex Whitaker Allen. Interpretation of the site's history shall be supervised by an architectural historian or historian who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards. The high-quality interpretive display(s) shall be installed within the project site boundaries, made of durable, all-weather materials, and positioned to allow for high public visibility and interactivity. In addition to narrative text, the interpretative display(s) may include, but are not limited to, a display of photographs, news articles, memorabilia, drawings, and/or video. A proposal describing the general parameters of the interpretive program shall be approved by the Planning Division's staff prior to issuance of building permits. The content, media, and other characteristics of the interpretive display shall be approved by the Planning Division's staff prior to issuance of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy. CUL -1c: Salvage. Prior to any demolition or construction activities that would remove character -defining features of a resource that is a contributor to the historic resource on the project site, the project sponsor shall consult with a qualified architectural historian or historian who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards as to whether any such features may be salvaged, in whole or in part, during demolition/alteration. The project sponsor shall submit a list of materials that will be salvaged and reused either on the site or within the interpretive program to the Planning Division for review prior to the beginning of demolition on the site. The project sponsor shall make a good faith effort to salvage materials of historical interest to be utilized as part of the interpretative program. No materials shall be salvaged or removed until HABS/HALS-style recordation and documentation are completed. 85. (Mitigation Measure CUL -2) Conduct Cultural Resources and Tribal Cultural Resources Sensitivity and Awareness Training Program Prior to Ground -Disturbing Activities. Prior to issuance of a building permit, grading permit, or demolition permit involving any potential ground disturbing activity, all construction contractor(s) responsible for overseeing and operating ground -disturbing mechanical equipment (e.g., onsite construction managers and backhoe operators) shall be required to participate in a cultural resources and tribal cultural resources sensitivity and awareness training program (Worker Environmental Awareness Program [WEAP]) for all personnel involved in Project construction, including field consultants and construction workers. The WEAP shall be developed by an archaeologist that meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualifications Standards in archaeology, and by culturally affiliated Native American tribes. The WEAP training shall be conducted by an archaeologist that meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualifications Standards in archaeology. A representative iD E.E. 87 from the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria (FIGR) shall be invited to participate in the training. The WEAP training shall be conducted before any Project -related construction activities begin at the Project site. The WEAP will include relevant information regarding sensitive cultural resources and tribal cultural resources, including applicable regulations, protocols for avoidance, and consequences of violating State laws and regulations. The WEAP will also describe appropriate avoidance and impact minimization measures for cultural resources and tribal cultural resources that could be located at the Project site and will outline what to do and who to contact if any potential cultural resources or tribal cultural resources are encountered. The WEAP will emphasize the requirement for confidentiality and culturally appropriate treatment of any discovery of significance to Native Americans and will discuss appropriate behaviors and responsive actions, consistent with Native American tribal values. The project sponsor shall maintain a record of all construction personnel that have received this training and provide the record to the City. These records shall be submitted to the City prior to issuance of a building permit involving any ground disturbing activity and shall be maintained by the applicant throughout the duration of the construction period. A final record shall be submitted to the City prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. (Mitigation Measure CUL -3) Protect Archaeological Resources Identified during Construction. The project sponsor shall ensure that construction crews stop all work within 100 feet of the discovery until a qualified archaeologist and FIGR Tribal Monitor can assess the previously unrecorded discovery and provide recommendations. Resources could include subsurface historic features such as artifact -filled privies, wells, and refuse pits, and artifact deposits, along with concentrations of adobe, stone, or concrete walls or foundations, and concentrations of ceramic, glass, or metal materials. Native American archaeological materials could include obsidian and chert flaked stone tools (such as projectile and dart points), midden (culturally derived darkened soil containing heat -affected rock, artifacts, animal bones, and/or shellfish remains), and/or groundstone implements (such as mortars and pestles). (Mitigation Measure CUL -4) Protect Human Remains Identified During Construction. In accordance with the California Health and Safety Code, if the find includes human remains, or remains that are potentially human, they shall ensure reasonable protection measures are taken to protect the discovery from disturbance (Assembly Bill [AB] 2641). The archaeologist shall notify the Marin County Coroner (per § 7050.5 of the Health and Safety Code) and the provisions of § 7050.5 of the California Health and Safety Code, § 5097.98 of the California PRC, and AB 2641 shall be implemented. If the coroner determines the remains are Native American and not the result of a crime scene, the coroner will notify the NAHC, which then will designate a Native American Most Likely Descendant (MLD) for the Project (§ 5097.98 of the PRC). The designated MLD will have 48 hours from the time access to the property is granted to make recommendations concerning treatment of the remains. If the landowner does not agree with the recommendations of the MLD, the NAHC can mediate (§ 5097.94 of the PRC). If no agreement is reached, the landowner shall rebury the remains where they will not be further disturbed (§ 5097.98 of the PRC). This shall also include either recording the site with the NAHC or the appropriate Information Center; using an open space or conservation zoning designation or easement; or recording a reinternment document with the county in which the property is located (AB 2641). Work may not resume within the no -work radius until the lead agencies, through consultation as appropriate, 17 determine that the treatment measures have been completed to their satisfaction. 88. (Mitigation Measure TCR -1) Survey of Site by Trained Human Remains Detection Dogs. Prior to the issuance of a grading or building permit, the project sponsor shall provide written evidence to the City's Community Development Department that a qualified consultant has been retained to conduct a survey of the site using trained human remains detection dogs. The survey shall be performed after the demolition of structures but prior to when trenching, grading, or earthwork on the site commences. If the survey results in the identification of an area potentially containing human remains, the area should be avoided. If avoidance is not feasible, then the City shall require that a professional archaeologist be retained to conduct subsurface testing, in the presence of a tribal representative from FIGR, to verify the presence or absence of remains. If human remains are confirmed, then the procedures in the PRC and Mitigation Measure CUL -3 shall be followed. 89. (Mitigation Measure TCR -2) Archaeological and Native American Monitoring and the Discovery of Cultural Materials and/or Human Remains. Prior to issuance of a grading permit or building permit, the project sponsor shall retain a Secretary of the Interior - qualified archaeologist, with input from the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria (FIGR), to prepare a Cultural Resources Monitoring Plan. Monitoring shall be required during initial ground -disturbing activities and may be extended should the area be determined to require monitoring of deeper sediments, according to a schedule outlined in the Cultural Resources Monitoring Plan. The plan shall include (but not be limited to) the following components: • Person(s) responsible for conducting monitoring activities, including an archaeological monitor and an appropriate number of FIGR Tribal monitors (number and kind of appropriate monitors to be determined in consultation with FIGR); • Person(s) responsible for overseeing and directing the monitors; • How the monitoring shall be conducted and the required format and content of monitoring reports, including schedule for submittal of monitoring reports and person(s) responsible for review and approval of monitoring reports; • Protocol for notifications in case of encountering cultural resources, as well as methods of dealing with the encountered resources (e.g., collection, identification, appropriate documentation, repatriation); and • Methods to ensure security of cultural resources sites, including protective fencing, security, and protocol for notifying local authorities (i.e. Sheriff, Police) should site looting or other resource damaging or illegal activities occur during construction. During the course of the monitoring, the archaeologist, in consultation with FIGR Tribal monitor, may adjust the frequency—from continuous to intermittent—based on the conditions and professional judgment regarding the potential to impact cultural and tribal cultural resources. If significant tribal cultural resources are identified onsite, all work shall stop immediately within 100 feet of the resource(s). 90. (Mitigation Measure GEO-1) Prior to a grading or building permit submittal, the project sponsor shall prepare a final geotechnical investigation prepared by a qualified and licensed geotechnical engineer and submit the report to the City Engineer. Minimum mitigation includes design of new structures in accordance with the provisions of the current California Building Code or subsequent codes in effect when final design occurs. Recommended seismic design coefficients and spectral accelerations shall be consistent with the findings presented in Geotechnical Investigation prepared by Rockridge Geotechnical, August 31, 2020- 91. (Mitigation Measure GEO-2) Should paleontological resources be encountered during project subsurface construction activities located in previously undisturbed soil and bedrock, all ground -disturbing activities within 25 feet shall be halted and a qualified 18 paleontologist contacted to assess the situation, consult with agencies as appropriate, and make recommendations for the treatment of the discovery. For purposes of this mitigation, a "qualified paleontologist" shall be an individual with the following qualifications: 1) a graduate degree in paleontology or geology and/or a person with a demonstrated publication record in peer- reviewed paleontological journals; 2) at least two years of professional experience related to paleontology; 3) proficiency in recognizing fossils in the field and determining their significance; 4) expertise in local geology, stratigraphy, and biostratigraphy; and 5) experience collecting vertebrate fossils in the field. If the paleontological resources are found to be significant and project activities cannot avoid them, measures shall be implemented to ensure that the project does not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of the paleontological resource. Measures may include monitoring, recording the fossil locality, data recovery and analysis, a final report, and accessioning the fossil material and technical report to a paleontological repository. Upon completion of the assessment, a report documenting methods, findings, and recommendations shall be prepared and submitted to the City for review. If paleontological materials are recovered, this report also shall be submitted to a paleontological repository such as the University of California Museum of Paleontology, along with significant paleontological materials. Public educational outreach may also be appropriate. The project applicants shall inform its contractor(s) of the sensitivity of the project site for paleontological resources and shall verify that the following directive has been included in the appropriate contract specification documents: "The subsurface of the construction site may contain fossils. If fossils are encountered during project subsurface construction, all ground -disturbing activities within 25 feet shall be halted and a qualified paleontologist contacted to assess the situation, consult with agencies as appropriate, and make recommendations for the treatment of the discovery. Project personnel shall not collect or move any paleontological materials. Fossils can include plants and animals, and such trace fossil evidence of past life as tracks or plant imprints. Marine sediments may contain invertebrate fossils such as snails, clam and oyster shells, sponges, and protozoa; and vertebrate fossils such as fish, whale, and sea lion bones. Vertebrate land mammals may include bones of mammoth, camel, saber tooth cat, horse, and bison. Contractor acknowledges and understands that excavation or removal of paleontological material is prohibited by law and constitutes a misdemeanor under California Public Resources Code, Section 5097.5." 92. (Mitigation Measure NOI-1) Construction Noise. Prior to the issuance of a grading permit or building permit, the project sponsor shall submit a Construction Noise Management Plan (CNMP) prepared by a qualified acoustical consultant. The CNMP shall identify noise attenuation measures to further reduce potential impacts related to construction noise. Noise attenuation measures include, but are not limited to, the following: a. Installation of a temporary noise barrier along the east and west property lines of the site. The barrier can be constructed with plywood or another appropriate material with cracks or no gaps. The purpose of the barrier is to provide a noticeable reduction of the noise and meet 90 dBA at residential receivers on neighboring properties along the common east and west property lines, where reasonably feasible. The height of the noise barrier, which may be up to 12 feet at certain locations, shall take into account the height of the construction noise sources and site grading and shall be specified in the Construction Noise Management Plan. b. All construction equipment shall be equipped with mufflers and sound control devices (e.g., intake silencers and noise shrouds) that are in good condition and IE appropriate for the equipment. c. Maintain all construction equipment to minimize noise emissions. d. Stationary equipment shall be located on the site to maintain the greatest possible distance to the existing residences, where feasible. e. Unnecessary idling of internal combustion engines shall be strictly prohibited. f. Provide advance notification to surrounding land uses disclosing the construction schedule, including the various types of activities that would be occurring throughout the duration of the construction period g. The construction contractor shall provide the name and telephone number of an on- site construction liaison. If construction noise is found to be intrusive to the community (complaints are received), the construction liaison shall investigate the source of the noise and require that reasonable measures be implemented to correct the problem. h. Schedule high noise -producing activities during times when they would be least likely to interfere with the noise sensitive activities of the neighboring land use, when possible. i. Use noise control blankets on temporary fencing that are used to separate construction areas from occupied on-site areas. j. Temporarily relocate residents of on-site dwelling units that are very close to the construction activities. k. Consider upgrading windows to reduce construction noise at on-site dwelling units closest to the construction activities.

Box 9633 San Rafael CA 94912 wpw.MarinMEHC org Marin_MEHC_@gmail.com October 1, 2022 Planning Commission City of San Rafael 1400 Fifth Avenue, Room 209 San Rafael CA 94901 Dear Commissioners: RECEIVED SEP 4 0 1022 The Marin Environmental Housing Collaborative (MEHC) is a multi- disciplinary consortium of advocates generating support For projects and Policies that advance affordable housing; environmental integrity and social justice. We are writing to comment on the Aldersly Retirement Community Master Plan Amendment and related applications. Aldersly, a 100+year institution, sits on a hillside close to the Montecito Center and downtown amenities. To protect its economic viability for the future, Aldersly needs to replace its older, smaller units with more modern, larger and more accessible housing that meets the needs of today's seniors. More senior housing, including that which can provide memory care, nursing care and assisted living, is critically needed in Marin. AIdersly's plan to provide more such infill housing will increase the number of its units, to provide more residents with its food, health and social engagement services. We urge the Planning Commission to support the project. That being said, we also note the need in San Rafael for additional senior housing, particularly affordable units, including housing with services, and note the need for its updated Housing Element to identify ways that such housing can be developed in San Rafael. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Aldersly application. We ask that you forward the project to the City Council with your recommendation for certification of the environmental report and for project approval.

Ripley H. Hunter E, San Rafael retired Marin County Physician, Aldersly Resident an Marin County Voter cc: P.res. Aldersly Board of Directors 11/08/22 October 24, 2022 Dear City Council, I am writing today to in support of my neighbor, Aldersly Retirement Community and specifically; their care-ful, thoughtful and concerted approach to involve neighbors and community members in their current re -development planning cycle. Aldersly residents and staff are an important part of our neighborhood, and I support Aldersly Retirement Community's need to maintain financial stability and therefore a secure role in the future of our community. Aldersly has been involved with the community for 20+ years, often hosting community events on their beautiful campus. I have lived at 117 Union Street as a homeowner for 12+ years and am a member of the MARA Board. I am writing this letter not as representative of MARA, but as a neighbor and community member. • Aldersly regularly communicates/ presents to neighbors at MARA Annual Meetings where Aldersly shares regular updates on development plans and events on the Aldersly campus. • Starting in October, 2019, Aldersly leadership began engaging directly with community members via MARA to inform, communicate and gather community feedback on the planned re -development of their campus. Members of MARA's current board and neighbors attended those meetings and were specifically asked for feedback on Aldersly's development plans. • In May, 2022 Aldersly presented the phased master development plan to neighbors in order to receive group feedback. Changes were requested by neighbors on Belle Ave and Aldersly accommodated these requests by altering their construction plans. Aldersly is not required to be an active participant in our community. They choose to do so, because they are a kind and considerate neighbor. MARA is hopeful the city of San Rafael and The Council will help ensure Aldersly's long term financial viability and stable position within Happy Valley/ Montecito. Kinde t egards, Chris Y skis, Homeowner and neighbor to Aldersly at San Rafael, CA 94901 cc: MARA Board Members, Peter Schakow, Aldersly Retirement Community, Marybeth Bushey jayni@allsep-planning.com To Jayni Allsep: October 19, 2022 I am a resident of the Independent Living section of Aldersly retirement community. I have learned that the contractor doing the demolition and construction will talk with the residents of Aldersly and give specific information explaining how they will minimize the dust and noise. This is reassuring to those who live and work at Aldersly as their health and welfare would not be compromised by the demolition and construction. It is understood the construction permit will be granted and there is a method to alleviate the dust and noise over a long period during the demolition and construction of the buildings at Aldersly without placing the health and welfare of the residents and staff at risk. This proposed new construction and demolition is to be a not-for-profit Life Plan Community. This plan is a three -stage ten year plan ending in 2033 for Aldersly to stay in business as a not-for-profit Life Plan Community. Were this plan not to be approved it is likely Aldersly will not have the funds to continue to operate into the future. We, the residents of Aldersly, want the final permit for the planned construction to be approved so the demolition and construction can begin in 2023 in order to stay within the ten year plan ending in 2023.

There are few or no apartments for the residents that will have to be moved. The future need for Assisted living spaces is ignored. At present the Assisted living area is full and there is no reason to believe that will change. We are all getting older and will need help. To adding to my concerns is the need to demolish beautiful trees and gardens which were part of the reason I moved here in the first place. We are a unique establishment and should try to stay that way. Further planning is needed with a greater view of the predictable future. Another pandemic or such event could change everything again. Thank you for listening and reading my concerns. Janet Mettner REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION Case No: GPA16-001 & P16-13 SAN RAFAE L THE CITY WITH A MISSION Community Development Department — Planning Division Page 1 Meeting Date: November 15, 2022 Agenda Item: Case Numbers: GPA22-002 & P21-006 Project Ali Giudice, CDD Director Planner: (415) 485-3092 Barry Miller, Consultant Liz Darby, Consultant Alexis Captanian, Housing Programs Analyst REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION SUBJECT: Public Meeting on the San Rafael 2023-2031 HCD Draft Housing Element. Staff will provide a presentation on the Draft 2023-2031 Housing Element. An opportunity for Planning Commission and public comment will be provided. The Planning Commission is being asked to recommend that the City Council approve submittal of this Draft to the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for review. Case Nos.: GPA16-001 & P16-013. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission: (1) Receive public comment on the HCD Draft Housing Element (2) Provide feedback and comments on the HCD Draft Housing Element (3) Recommend that the City Council approve submittal of the Working Draft Housing Element to the State Department of Housing and Community Development for their initial 90 -day review. A revised version of the Housing Element ("Public Review Draft") will be presented to the Planning Commission in March 2023. At that time, the Commission will be asked to approve a resolution recommending Council adoption of the Housing Element and resubmittal to the State for a compliance determination. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Housing Element is the City's long-range plan for conserving and maintaining its housing supply, removing regulatory barriers to housing production, promoting fair housing, and creating new housing opportunities for all residents. Requirements and timelines for Housing Elements are established by State law, as well as guidelines developed by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). All cities and counties in the Bay Area are currently updating their Housing Elements to cover the 2023-2031 period. Through its Housing Element, each city and county must demonstrate that it has the capacity to accommodate its "fair share" of the region's housing needs for the next eight years. San Rafael's fair share assignment was calculated by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) to be 3,220 housing units, including 1,387 units affordable to lower income households. Although the City itself does REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION Page 2 Case No: GPA16-001 & P16-13 not develop housing, it must show it has zoned a sufficient number of sites for housing construction by the private and non-profit sectors. It must also demonstrate that it will implement programs to mitigate or remove constraints to development and encourage a variety of housing types. The Element must further demonstrate that the City is "affirmatively furthering fair housing" (AFFH) by creating opportunities for affordable housing in high -resource neighborhoods along with programs to end housing discrimination and promote fair housing practices. State law requires that cities and counties publish a "Working Draft" of their Housing Elements for HCD review prior to adoption. The City of San Rafael has published its Working Draft and is now soliciting public comments. The current draft will be revised in early December and submitted to HCD for its review in mid-December. The City will adopt the Element in early 2023, after it receives HCD comments and makes appropriate revisions. PROJECT BACKGROUND Overview Every city and county in California is required to adopt a Housing Element as part of its General Plan. The Housing Element is the only part of the General Plan that must be submitted to the State for certification, a process that is performed by the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Cities without certified Housing Elements face adverse consequences, including limited access to State funding and vulnerability to lawsuits and financial penalties. To avoid such consequences, HCD must make a formal determination that each Housing Element substantially complies with Government Code requirements. San Rafael's current Housing Element was adopted on January 5, 2015 and was certified by the State on January 23, 2015. The planning period covered by that Housing Element was January 31, 2015 through January 31, 2023. The next Housing Element is due on January 31, 2023 and will cover the period from January 31, 2023 through January 31, 2031. State requirements for Housing Elements has changed considerably in the last eight years. The focus of prior Housing Elements was on housing conservation and the creation of new housing opportunities. While housing production is still the central focus, there is a much greater emphasis on equity, fair housing, and meeting the needs of lower-income households and persons with special needs. Cities have been asked to plan for much larger quantities of housing and provide substantially more detail on potential housing sites. Requirements for community engagement and outreach to under -represented populations also have been expanded. Cities and counties must demonstrate that their policies and programs are affirmatively furthering fair housing and directly addressing the factors that have resulted in segregation and concentrated poverty around the State. The City initiated the update process in September 2021. Over the last 14 months, the City has completed background data collection and analysis tasks; completed a robust public outreach program; and drafted new goals, policies, and programs. In November 2021, City Council appointed a 13 -member Working Group (including a Planning Commission representative) to advise on key policy choices. The Working Group met eight times between December 2021 and August 2022. Other community engagement activities included three community workshops, a developer forum, presentations and outreach to neighborhood and community-based organizations, a community survey, numerous focus groups and interviews, a project website, pop-up workshops, and focused outreach to the Spanish- speaking community. REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION Case No: GPA16-001 & P16-13 Regional Housing Needs Allocation Page 3 The key driver of the Housing Element is the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). The RHNA process has been in effect since 1969 when the State legislature mandated that all communities do their "fair share" to meet California's housing needs. The RHNA is a top-down process that begins with the State determining the eight-year housing need for each region of California. Each regional council of governments is given the task of assigning the regional need to individual counties and cities. The Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), the Bay Area regional council, was tasked with disaggregating a regional assignment of 441,176 housing units to nine counties and 101 cities. This process occurred in 2020-2021. San Rafael's allocation for the 2023-2031 planning period is 3,220 units. This is more than three times the 2015-2023 allocation of 1,007 units. Marin County, including the unincorporated areas and the 11 cities, saw much steeper rates of increase. The countywide RHNA increased by 526 percent, from 2,298 units (2015-23) to 14,405 units (2023-31). ABAG disaggregates the RHNA into four income categories, as shown in the table below.

Highlights of each chapter are provided below. REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION Case No: GPA16-001 & P16-13 Chapter 1: Introduction Page 4 The introduction explains the purpose of the Housing Element. It also describes San Rafael's local and regional context, the RHNA process and San Rafael's assignment, and the statutory requirements for the Housing Element. The Element also explains the organization of the document and includes a detailed description of the community engagement program. The community engagement discussion focuses on efforts to reach lower income households, non-English speaking households, and persons with special housing needs. Chapter 2: Evaluation of the 2015 Housing Element This chapter evaluates the City's progress toward implementing the last (2015-2023) Housing Element. It includes a program -by -program assessment of the 2015 Housing Element, indicating whether each program should be carried forward, edited, or replaced. The Chapter also indicates the extent to which the City met its RHNA for the previous planning period. The Planning Commission reviewed this chapter at its February 15, 2022 meeting. Chapter 3: Housing Needs Assessment The Needs Assessment includes an analysis of demographic and socio-economic conditions, housing conditions, and market trends. The analysis is used to identify current and future housing needs in San Rafael, particularly for lower-income households and populations with special housing needs. Highlights and findings of the Needs Assessment were included in the staff report for the Planning Commission's February 15, 2022 meeting (see pages 7 and 8). Cha t�_Housina Sites and Resources Analysis This chapter includes an evaluation of the sites most likely to be available for residential development in the next eight years. The Planning Commission received a presentation and staff report on housing sites at its July 26, 2022 meeting. The list of sites was refined in August 2022 to incorporate public input and to ensure that the Housing Sites Inventory was fully aligned with the development opportunities identified in General Plan 2040 and the Downtown Precise Plan. The inventory identifies opportunities for 4,658 housing units on 112 sites in San Rafael, providing a substantial buffer above the RHNA. Sites with the potential for lower-income units are generally zoned at densities of 30 units per acre or more and are geographically distributed in support of the State goal to affirmatively further fair housing.' The Sites chapter has been structured to address HCD requirements. The City must demonstrate that the presumed development capacity estimates for each site are reasonable and that each listed site could realistically be developed in the next eight years. The chapter also addresses projected accessory dwelling unit (ADU) production over the next eight years, environmental constraints on the housing sites, and the availability of infrastructure to serve the sites. This chapter also includes State -mandated discussions of energy conservation resources in San Rafael, and a discussion of potential sources of funding for affordable housing and housing programs in the city. ' According to HCD, "the goal of Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) is to combat housing discrimination, eliminate racial bias, undo historic patterns of segregation, and lift barriers that restrict access in order to foster inclusive communities and achieve racial equity, fair housing choice, and opportunity for all Californians.

City of San Rafael. 2022 Chapter 5: Housing Constraints The Constraints chapter addresses governmental constraints to housing development such as zoning, development fees, development standards, and development review processes. It also addresses non- governmental constraints, such as high land and construction costs. The analysis concludes that the City's General Plan and Precise Plan are strongly supportive of housing production. It identifies a number of potential zoning constraints, including height limits in the commercial zones and multi -family zoning districts with maximum densities that are below the levels authorized by the General Plan. The analysis notes that parking requirements are generally not a constraint in transit -served areas (due to recent State laws) and concludes that the recent modifications to the City's affordable housing ordinance and changes to State Density Bonus Law have had a positive effect on housing production. As required by State law, this chapter evaluates constraints to the production of particular types of housing in the City, including ADUs, single room occupancy hotels, emergency shelters, and transitional and supportive housing. Specific recommendations are included to expand opportunities for special needs housing. The chapter also addresses local permitting procedures and fees, noting the progress that has been made since 2018 when the City began convening developer forums and Council study sessions on strategies to remove constraints and increase housing production. The final part of this chapter evaluates non-governmental constraints. The focus is on land and construction costs, and financial constraints such as high interest rates and limited availability of low- income housing tax credits. Other non-governmental constraints include community opposition, requests to develop at densities below what is allowed by zoning, and lengthy time delays between project entitlement and construction. Chapter 6: Housing Plan This chapter presents goals, policies, and programs to address the City's housing needs as well as quantified objectives for housing development and preservation during the planning period.

Chapter 6: Housing Plan This chapter presents goals, policies, and programs to address the City's housing needs as well as quantified objectives for housing development and preservation during the planning period. It is addressed in more detail in the next section of this staff report. REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION Case No: GPA16-001 & P16-13 Appendix A: Assessment of Fair Hoosinq Page 6 The Assessment of Fair Housing uses maps and tables to illustrate spatial patterns of segregation and concentrated poverty in the city, and the location of high, moderate, and low resource neighborhoods. This data is used to evaluate the adequacy of the City's housing sites, and also to ensure that housing programs further fair housing and provide greater access to resources (e.g., high -performing schools, quality City parks, health care facilities, etc.) in under -served neighborhoods. The analysis informs many of the policies and programs in Chapter 6. Appendix A also evaluates fair housing practices and provides data on discrimination complaints in the city during recent years. Aoendix B: Housing Opportunity Site Inventory This is a detailed parcel -level spreadsheet with data for each of the 112 identified housing opportunity sites. The sites are organized into six categories (approved projects, proposed projects, vacant low- density residential sites, medium- and high-density residential sites, mixed use sites outside Downtown, and Downtown mixed-use sites). For each property, the database provides assessor parcel number, address, acreage, zoning and General Plan designation, existing land use, theoretical capacity, realistic capacity (by income group), and any constraints or comments. Appendix C: Public Participation Matrix The matrix lists the various outreach and engagement efforts that occurred over the course of the project, including key takeways and metrics for participation. The matrix provides a bridge from the engagement program to the Housing Element policies and program and illustrates how community feedback has shaped the contents of the document. Goals, Policies, and Programs The HCD Draft Housing Element includes four goals: 1. End and prevent homelessness in San Rafael. 2. Combat housing discrimination, eliminate racial bias, and undo historic patterns of segregation. 3. Ensure housing habitability and maintenance. 4. Meet housing needs by providing a variety of housing choices throughout the City. The goals have been substantially reorganized from the 2015 Housing Element, with a greater focus on fair housing and resources for lower income households. As with the other elements of General Plan 2040, a set of policies follows each goal. The policies are intended to provide broad guidance for future decision-making over the eight-year planning period. Each of the goals is also followed by a series of housing programs, which include more prescriptive direction as well as an assessment of resources, a timetable for implementation and metrics to measure future success. Programs are summarized below. Commissioners are encouraged to review Chapter 6 of the Draft Housing Element for additional detail. Each of the programs listed below includes a narrative description of the program, specific actions to be taken, a timeline for those actions, the responsible City department or division, the resources available to undertake the action, and the relevant housing policies that are implemented through the program.

Complete an evaluation of residential off-street parking standards to reduce parking as a housing development expense. This should include the removal of minimum parking standards within one- half mile of SMART stations and high -frequency bus corridors. Chapter 6 concludes with a summary of quantified objectives for the programs (including objectives for housing production and conservation). It also indicates the extent to which programs address specific AFFH themes identified by HCD, including fair housing outreach and enforcement, housing mobility, new opportunities in high resource areas, place -based strategies for neighborhood improvement, and tenant protection and anti -displacement. Schedule The HCD Draft Housing Element was published on November 4, 2022. A 30 -day public review period is required by State law and will end on December 5, 2022. Comments received by that date will be considered prior to submitting the Draft to HCD. The City is statutorily required to allow 10 business days after the 30 -day period to consider comments and make edits in response. The City Council is scheduled to discuss the Housing Element at its December 5 meeting. Comments from the Council also will be considered during this 10- day period. In addition, the Council will be asked to authorize staff to submit the HCD Draft to the State, inclusive of their comments and any revisions made in response to public comments or Planning Commission comments. This action does not constitute adoption of the Housing Element—it is merely approving its submittal for initial State review. The State has up to 90 days to issue its review letter. Submittal to the State is projected by December 19, 2022. As noted earlier in this report, the deadline for Housing Element adoption is January 31, 2023. While the City is working to meet this deadline and will submit its Draft to HCD before that date, it is unlikely that HCD comments will be received until after the deadline. Most cities are receiving comment letters at or near the end of the 90 -day period, which means the City's letter would be received in mid-March. At that time, the City will respond to any comments from the State, make necessary edits, and return to the Planning Commission with a resolution recommending City Council adoption of the Element. Once adopted, the Element will be resubmitted to the State for a compliance determination. The State has designated a 120 -day "safe harbor" period following the January 31, 2023 deadline for cities not found in compliance by the January 31 date. This period ends on May 31, 2023. The City is striving to receive a compliance determination prior to that date. The principal consequence of a late compliance determination is that any necessary rezoning identified by the Element must be completed by January 31, 2024. San Rafael's zoning is largely in place and the City would not be impacted by this requirement. However, it is in the City's best interest to remain in compliance and adopt the Element as quickly as possible after receiving State comments. As of November 2, four cities in Marin County have submitted their elements to the State. Seven are still preparing their elements or have just released their initial drafts. Only two jurisdictions in the Bay Area (Alameda and Emeryville) have been found in compliance at this time. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW As a General Plan amendment, the Housing Element update is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Because the City does not anticipate major changes to its Land Use Map, the REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION Case No: GPA16-001 & P16-13 Page 10 appropriate form of CEQA review for the Housing Element is an Addendum to the recently certified General Plan EIR. The Addendum will determine if the conclusions reached by the General Plan EIR would be changed by the policies and programs in the new Housing Element. The Addendum will be considered concurrently with the Public Review Draft Housing Element in early 2023. CORRESPONDENCE No correspondence has been received on this Staff Report. ATTACHMENTS No attachments to this staff report are included. However, Commissioners are strongly encouraged to access the HCD Draft Housing Element on the project website at www.sanrafaelhousing.orq. The entire document, including maps and technical appendices, may be accessed at that website.

Thanks, Jon On Thu, Nov 10, 2022 at 2:51 AM Jonathan Previtali wrote: Hello Fellow Commissioners, Please forgive me for not being able to attend the upcoming Planning Commission meeting and instead, please accept this note regarding the Housing Element you will discuss Tuesday. As you may recall, I was the Planning Commission liaison on the Housing Element Working Group. First off, I want to tell you the Housing Element Working Group effort was very well orchestrated. Barry Miller and Alex Captanian were excellent leaders, we had strong support from a number of other city staff, particularly Community Development Director Ali Giudice, and we had a very engaged citizen group representing a wide range of stakeholders. Thoughtful agendas were set, we had an incredible reading list, experts were brought in and ample space was created to share experiences and ideas. Indeed, people were highly participatory and candid about the many complex and sensitive topics surrounding housing. Much of my contribution focused on aspects of the Housing Element that could lead to better racial and socioeconomic integration of our single-family home (SFH) neighborhoods. As you probably know, in San Rafael and across the state, the fact that large SFH neighborhoods are missing less expensive multi -unit dwellings like condos and apartments makes it hard for people without high incomes or intergenerational wealth to live in these communities. Instead, many newcomers and people with lower incomes live in areas that were historically designated by city planners for multi -unit dwellings in separate communities like the Canal. This has led to the type of racial and socioeconomic segregation we see in San Rafael. SFH neighborhoods typically have better schools and that is indeed the case here. To me, this seems unfair. Why shouldn't every child in San Rafael have the same access to education, the same chance to achieve? There are many approaches to solving this problem, but within the framework of housing, a proven path is to add more affordable multi -family housing to SFH neighborhoods. This works by increasing the odds of children staying in school, going to college, and effectively breaking the cycle of poverty for themselves, their families, and generations to come. How great is that! The challenge is that SFH neighborhoods here are already very well built out, the small, multi- family housing developments that might fit here or there aren't profitable to developers and there's concern that new buildings won't fit in. The Housing Element mentions a possible solution I like, and which had traction with a below market rate (BMR) housing developer on the working group. It's called an overlay plan and it's set to be considered by 2024. My understanding of an overlay plan is that it would provide special incentives for the development of affordable housing in some areas, but it could also include elements akin to a Downtown Precise Plan, but for the neighborhoods. For instance, it could front -load design requirements in collaboration with neighbors to ensure aesthetic consistency and high-quality construction, thus reducing (but not totally eliminating) two major barriers to new affordable housing: community concern and permitting delays. Another approach to promoting integration I'm sure you'll hear a lot about on Tuesday involves the use of Housing Opportunity Sites. Here's a link to some great maps produced for the Housing Element. These are locations, most commercial/office, where the city will encourage the addition of multi -unit housing. While the built -out nature of the SFH neighborhoods made it hard to include a lot of Housing Opportunity Sites in the neighborhoods, the list has a good number in my neighborhood of Terra Linda. This is partly due to projects already underway like Northgate Walk and the Northgate Town Square, but also by proposing condos to be added to places like the Terra Linda shopping center where our cherished Scotty's Market is located. In speaking with neighbors, I think it's fair to say Terra Linda is ready to embrace new members of the community. In fact, the formerly named Terra Linda Homeowners Association recently changed its name to the Terra Linda Neighborhood Association to acknowledge the fact we have a vibrant and growing community of people, not just homeowners. I should also mention there was a feeling among the planners and the Working Group that the opportunity to convert single-family homes to multi -unit dwellings per SB 9 and the City's allowance of ADU's will also lead to more affordable housing in the SFH neighborhoods. A newer and expanding threat to housing is the rising cost of housing and gentrification, and this was a major focus of the Working Group. Many studies have shown that rising housing values lead to higher rents, evictions of lower income people, crowding and homelessness. There's a direct correlation. Needless to say, this is a very serious problem that affects the most susceptible people in our city. We all saw the homeless area under the freeway, but I also now notice seniors living in their cars when I go to Whole Foods. As you can see from this article in Zhe Marin I , displacement is starting to happen in the Canal District now. AB -1482 that caps rent increases to 5% per year will help, but I feel if we don't act swiftly and strongly, we're going to see gentrification lead to many more evictions and homelessness. The City already does a lot to ensure evictions are just cause, but I think paying tenants to leave like we're seeing in the Canal and uneven legal representation between landlords and tenants, e.g., during mediation, will act to dampen those efforts. This is a complex problem with so many variables, there's no way I could begin to address it adequately here. I encourage you to focus on sections 6.4.1 Programs to End and Prevent Homelessness in San Rafael and 6.4.2 Programs to Combat Housing Discrimination, Eliminate Racial Bias, Undo Historic Patterns of Segregation in the Housing Action Plan chapter of the Draft Housing Element. Please pay special attention to Program 2: Relocation Assistance and Program 12: Tenant Protection Measures that I feel lay the foundation for possible solutions. Finally, I'll close by mentioning that the idea of adding housing to light -industrial areas like around Anderson in the south and Paul in the north was debated several times during the Working Group sessions. The city allows housing in commercial/office zones, but not light -industrial. The Chamber of Commerce is justifiably concerned that adding residents to light -industrial zones would cause business to be edged out through complaints of noise, industrial fumes, and simply the profitability of housing conversions. Several of us thought otherwise and suggested measures could be taken to prevent those conflicts and protect businesses. I lived in a light -industrial area in San Francisco for about 10 years next to an auto shop and never had an issue. In fact, having a small group of friendly Asian mechanics as neighbors was super fun, helped create a bridge over a cultural divide I probably would not have otherwise experienced, and of course was tremendously helpful when I needed a repair. My roommates and I were friends with those guys and the shop is still there going on 20 years later. I feel that adding housing to our light -industrial areas in a smart way would be great for everyone, particularly with the addition of a couple new parks. There's a lot of room for new housing in those areas and great precedent in other cities. All the best, Jon Previtali San Rafael Planning Commission
