This project conforms with the policies of Gilroy's General Plan. The following examples
demonstrate this compliance:
Urban Development and Community Design (Section II):
Policy 3: "Urban Development will only occur within the incorporated portion of the Planning
Area. Land will therefore be annexed to the City before final development approval is given,"
The proposed project is in conformance with this policy, beo.:ause this lar,d has beel~ within City
limits for many years.
Policy 4: "The City will phase development in an orderly, contiguous manner in order to maintain
a compact development pattern to avoid premature investment for the extension of public
facilities and services. New urban development will occur in areas where municipal services are
available and capacity exists prior to the approval of development in areas which would require
major new facility expansion,
The proposed project is in conformance with this policy, because this property is adjacent to a
developed school site, and is in close proximity to developed residential property. Municipal
services are currently available at this site,
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
NEGATIVE DECLARATION
An expanded initial study has been prepared for this project. The study identified potentially
significant effects on the environment, however, the applicant has agreed to individual mitigation
measures which will avoid or mitigate the effects to a point where no significant impacts will '
occur, A Negative Declaration, with 30 mitigation measures, was adopted for this project under
GPA 93-02,

Planned Unit Deve]opment (pun) approval for thearchitectura] design of 66 dwelling units,
RDO BACKGROUND:
This project is proposed to be developed by South County Housing, which is a private, non-prolil
developer of affordable homes, and is therefore eligible to be exempt from the provisions of the
Residential Development Ordinance (RDO) uflder section 50,62 (3), The City Council approved
this exemption at their April 24, ]995 meeting,
.

Staff Report TM 95-0 I

ANALYSTS OF REOUEST:
This proposed tentative map will subdivide a 12.45 acre site into 70 lots; 66 of these lots will be
used to construct single family homes, three lots will be common area lots, used for dtiveways
and parking areas, and one 1.5 acre remainder lot will be used for future development, This site
has a zoning designation ofRl/R3-Planned Unit Development, and the applicant is proposing to
transfer density between the two different zoning designations within the project. This will allow
the entire development to be subdivided into single family lots, which will be sold individually,
rather than being restricted to providing single family homes on the Rl portion, and multi-family
homes on the R3 portion.
The applicant has proposed to subdivide tins proper.j inlo two different lot type$. The first lot
type consists of 20 single family lots on the Rl portion of the development, These lots range in
size from 3,879 square feet to 7,306 square feet, with an average lot size of approximately 5,200
square feet. This portion of the development is approximately 2.3 acres, with a density of8.7
dwelling units per net acre. [Note: The Rl zoning district would normally allow a maximum
density of7,25 dwelling units per net acre. The higher density is allowed in this case because of
the POD density transfer.]
The second lot type consists of 46 single fumily lots on the R3 portion of this development.
These lots will range in size from 2,782 square feet to 5,739 square feet, with an average lot size
of approximately 3,470 square feet. This portion of the project is approximately 4.94 acres, with
a density of 9.3 dwelling units per net acre, The over all density of this project, considering both
the R I and R3 portions is 9.1 dwelling units per net acre, The maximum allowed density, based
on the densities allowed in the Rl and R3 zoning districts, is 13 units per net acre. Therefore, the
proposed development is well within the density limitations for this site, and meets the intent of
the Planned Uflit Development zoning designation,
South County Housing is proposing to construct four different models of homes on this site, Two
models will be constructed on the larger lots, and two v>~ll be constructed on the smaller lots, The
design of these homes will be considered under POD application AfS 95-12, and will be subject to
Planning Commission and City Council approvaL
School Issues
This project is located next to the Rod Kelley and Mount Madonna School Sites, The school
district has ~everal isstles-ofconcern-with the-{!evelopment of this site, These are as follows:
l, This City has planned to develop a park at this school site for several years, Through
f1egotiations with the City, South County Housing and the School District, it was determined
that the best location for this park would be at the non hwest corner of the school site. This
,allows the park to gain access from Mantelli Drive and the new street which will be located on
the east side of South County Housing's project (Lawnder Street). The development of the
park site and the location of Lavender Street requires some land trades and easements to be
negotiated between the School District, the developer afld the City, These negotiations will
be required to be completed prior to the final approval of the Tentative Map for this site,
.
.
Staff Report TM 95-01

4/24/95
2. The School District desired a new access to Mount Madonna School, in order to remove
some of the traffic from Kern Avenue, and provide better access to this school. This new
access is proposed to be provided from Lavender Street.
3, The School District is concerned about the safety of children travelling along Kern Avenue to
Rod Kelley School. South County Housing has addressed this issue by agreeing to provide
pedestrian access improvements along Kern Avenue,
Street Access Issues
Primary access to this development will be provided by Kern Avenue (a General Plan collector)
and Mantelli Dr;ve (a General Plan arterial). Acce~s will also be gained from Santa Teresa
Boulevard, once Mantelli is connected to that street. The proposed tract map configuration also
shows two new streets which contribute to the traffic circulation of this project. Lavender Street
is a local street on the south ofMantelli Drive, and will run between the proposed park and the
low density portion of this project, On the north side of Mantelli Drive, however, Lavender
Street becomes a collector, and will provide access to the properties to the north of the South
County Housing project, Zinnia Street, which connects to Mantelli Drive and is located on the
east side of this project, will make a "dog-leg" and connect to Kelton Drive, This configuration
will allow residents of Kelton Drive to obtain access to Mantelli Drive, while reducing the amount
of traffic filtering to Kelton from Mantelli Drive. The proposed street alignments are consistent
with minimum City development standards. The applicant has worked with City staff, the School
District and residents of the area in order to provide a design which would be acceptable to all
parties,
Water Channel Issues
The proposed project is bordered on its north side by a water channel. General Plan Section VI-
3, policy number 15 states, "The City should attempt to acquire the rights to use public and quasi-
public utility and drainage channel conidors as linear parks to provide the network for a system of
pedestrian and bicycle paths," Based on this policy, City staff has asked that the numbef of
houses located directly adjaceflt to this channel be limited, and that these areas be feserved for
open space, parking areas, streets or other buffers, The reason for this request is that residential
rear yards abuttiflg trails and pathways can create undesirable situations for two primary reasons:
1) The public presence on the trails and pathways may interfere with the privacy of adjacent
residents and 2) When trails and pathways abut residences, they cannot be seefl from the public
right-of-way,-and therefore are difficult tomonitor-by public safety personnel,
South Couflty Housing has worked with staff by limiting the number of houses constructed
adjacent to these channels to eight, and by providing larger setbacks for these homes The other
areas adjacent to the chaflflel have been used for driveways and parking areas,
As submitted, this project is consistent with the intent of the City's Gefleral Plan text afld Land'
Use Map, Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision and Land Developmeflt code, and the Residential
Development Ordinaflce exemption approved by the City Council.

Re: Development of property on west side of Kern Ave, adjacent to the future extension of
Mantelli Drive
We own the property directly to the south of the proposed migrant housing development, and
we strongly object to the building of these units across the driveway from our front door.
Several years ago we had a buyer for the two acres across from us and the City of Gilroy
condemned the propert}' to purchase it for the extension of Mantelli Drive. Since that time,
we have never been consulted by the City on possible future development, nor were we
offered the chance to repurchase the property to protect us from this type of housing.
The notice to attend the Planning Commission meeting on May 4th is the first time we have
been notified of any planned development.
Since then, we have consulted a real estate agent who brought us copies of the city plans,
and informed us that on speaking with developers, she was told that the property would only
be of value to someone interested in building low-cost housing. This greatly reduces the
value of our property, and limits any chance of a sale. This property has been in the Amberg
family for more than 60 years and is now being rendered useless as a retirement home.
If the City proceeds with their planned development, we request just compensation for our 4-
bedroom home, which has been redecorated in the last six months, as well as compensation
for the loss of property value.

INITIAL STUDY:
An Initial Study of this project was undertaken and prepared for the
purpose of ascertaining whether this project might have a significant
effect on the environment. A copy of this study is on file at the city of
Gilroy Planning Department, 7351 Rosanna Street, Gilroy, CA 95020
FINDINGS & REASONS:
The Initial Study identified potentially significant effects on the
environment~ However, the applicant has agreed to revisions in the
project, or the project has been revised, see Mitigation Measures below
which avoid or mitigate the effects, to a point where no significant
effects will occur. There is no substantial evidence the project, as
revised, may have a significant effect on the environment. The following
reasons will support these findings:
1. Identified adverse impacts such as the effect on remaining sewer
,~lant capacity, school impacts, and increase in traffic generated
from- thi.lI -project-.'are' proposed to -be miti:gated"through buildout
schedules, school impaction fees, and construction of off-site
improvements.
2. The proposal will not be detrimental to the public welfare'or
injurious to persons or property in the vicinity.
3. Potential significant effects can be mitigated to reduce them to an
acceptable level of impact.
