2
3 DENYING 1993 ALLOCATIONS
4
5 WHEREAS, the City Council has adopted a growth management system by Ordinance
6 1716 N.C.S. (Chapter 17.26 of the Petaluma Municipal Code) establishing the procedure
7 for granting or denying allocations on a yearly basis; and
8
9 WHEREAS, interested developers have filed Notice of Intent to Develop forms in
10 accordance with the provisions of Chapter 17.26 and these, in combination with other
11 allocation obligations created and anticipated by the action of the City Council, comprise
12 the total number of allocation requests for 1993; and
13
14 WHEREAS, the City Council finds the award and/or denial of allocations is not a project
15 pursuant to Section 1578 of California Environmental Quality Act and, therefore, no
16 environmental action is necessary at this time.
17
18 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council denies 1993 allocations
19 to the Duffel Financial and Construction Company, who requested at least 100 allocations
20 fora 408 unit apartment complex on a 36.91 acre parcel located at the southwesterly corner
21 of Ely Boulevard South and Frates Road (APN 017-150-19).
22
23 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council makes the following findings in
24 support of its denial of 1993 allocations:
25
26 Findings:
27 1. The General Plan Land Use Map designates the subject site as "Specific Plan" with
28 a portion in "Urban Separator"; no other land use has been specified in anticipation
29 of preparation of a specific plan. Therefore, granting allocations to this site would
30 be inconsistent with these prudent pre-planning principles of the General Plan.
31
32 2. Only after a specific plan is prepared to determine the most appropriate use of this
33 site and only if the most appropriate use of the site is determined to be residential
34 should allocations be granted for this parcel in order to avoid prejudicing the
35 specific plan process..
36
Rcs. No..........92-97_..... N.C.S.
1 3. There are more appropriate sites for high density dwellings at this time; l.e., sites
2 that are closer to existing shopping and other commodities, without a propensity to
3 cause urban sprawl, and within more developed areas so as to be more visually
4 compatible with its surroundings.
5
6 4. This project, being noncontiguous to any other existing or proposed development,
7 and adjacent to the Urban Limit Line, does not promote in-fill development or
8 preservation of existing open space around the City, which are legislative intents of
9 the Residential Growth Management System and goals of the General Plan,

respectively.
Denial of allocations does not preclude the applicant from .preceding with the
Specific Plan and environmental review through City processes.
