EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On March 11, 2014 the Planning Commission concluded a public hearing on the draft amendments and
continued the project to its April 15, 2014 meeting with direction given to incorporate specific revisions for
its final review and recommendation.
RECOMMENDATION

Council amendments to San Rafael Municipal Code Title 6 (Animals) and Title 14 (Zoning) as outlined in
Exhibit 1A, with edits incorporated as recommended by the Planning Commission at its March 11, 2014
meeting.
DISCUSSION
As directed by the Planning Commission, the following revisions have been made to the draft zoning
amendments (the zoning amendment exhibit page numbers reflecting these changes are referenced):
• Chapter 14.03 — Non -hillside height definition has been re -introduced to codify the current 1997
UPC method of measurement (pages A-3 to A-4).
Chapter 14.12 — Permeable paving has been added as an option for the driveway backup space
(page A-42). Further, reference to reviews required by public works has been amended to clarify
its role as advisory to the community development director.
Chapter 14.16 — Emergency shelters, permanent provisions have been amended to allow
shelters within the area designated, up to the RHNA requirement; which is highly variable number
depending on local homeless population (page A-49 to A-51). This recommended change is
considered to be consistent with state law. Further, the restriction on location of swimming pools
and hot tubs in front yards has been re-inserted and is consistent with the accessory structure
provisions (page A-60),
Chapter 14.18 — Parking requirement modifications section has been revised to insert the
community development director as a authority in determining whether to support a change in
requirements (page A-83).
