V. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. CUP 18-02 (#18070065) requests a Conditional Use Permit to operate a Child Care
Facility within an existing institutional building on a 4.32 acre property at 8455
Wren Avenue (APN 790-20-076), in the Single Family Residential (R1) zone. The
site is currently developed with a 344 seat church sanctuary and two adjacent
two-story buildings totaling 17,600 square feet (i.e., Building A is 9,200 square
feet and Building B is 8,400 square feet), primarily used for Sunday school and
storage). The site has 105 on-site parking spaces. The daycare proposes to
operate within the first floor of Building B, 4,200 square feet. The proposal would
replace six Sunday School classrooms with a Day Care facility for a maximum of
sixty (60) children ages 2 through 6-years, and seven (7) staff, between the hours
of 6:30 am through 6:30 pm, Monday through Friday. The daycare includes a new
5,500 square foot playground area with accessory structures in the existing
outdoor yard area behind the buildings (to the west). Ingress and egress to the
facility is provided from Wren Ave via a one-way driveway around the building.
Drop off and pick up times are varied and based on individual family schedules.

FROM: Miguel Contreras, Planner I
SUBJECT: CUP 18-02, First Baptist Church Day Care Facility, located at 8455
Wren Ave. (APN 790-20-076)
1) Request: CUP 18-02 (#18070065) requests a Conditional Use Permit to operate a
Child Care Facility within an existing institutional building on a 4.32 acre property at
8455 Wren Avenue (APN 790-20-076), in the Single Family Residential (R1) zone.
The site is currently developed with a 344 seat church sanctuary and two adjacent
two-story buildings totaling 17,600 square feet (i.e., Building A is 9,200 square feet
and Building B is 8,400 square feet), primarily used for Sunday school and
storage). The site has 105 on-site parking spaces. The daycare proposes to
operate within the first floor of Building B, 4,200 square feet. The proposal would
replace six Sunday School classrooms with a Day Care facility for a maximum of
sixty (60) children ages 2 through 6-years, and seven (7) staff, between the hours
of 6:30 am through 6:30 pm, Monday through Friday. The daycare include s a new
5,500 square foot playground area with accessory structures in the existing outdoor
yard area behind the buildings (to the west). Ingress and egress to the facility is
provided from Wren Ave via a one-way driveway around the building. Drop off and
pick up times are varied and based on individual family schedules.
2) Recommendation: Staff has analyzed the proposed project, and recommends that
the Planning Commission adopt a resolution approving Conditional Use Permit
(CUP) 18-02 (#18070065) subject to certain findings and conditions.
3) Subject Property and Surrounding Land Uses: The subject parcel is currently
occupied by the First Baptist Church of Gilroy and is improved with a church, and
two structures that house classrooms, nurseries, an office, and a storage area.

4) Environmental Assessment: Section 15301 of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, exempts from further environmental review, those
projects involving “existing facilities” with negligible or no expansion of use. The
project is proposed within a building where only interior improvements are planned.
Approval of the conditional use permit would involve negligible to no expansion of
the allowable uses.
5) Background Information: On December 15, 2008, Conditional Use Permit
application CUP 08-13 (#08120013) was submitted to the Planning Division. This
application requested a use permit to allow for the operation of a childcare facility,
on the first floor of an existing building (4,200 square feet), for a maximum of 48
children and eight (8) staff. On February 5, 2009, the Planning Commission
unanimously voted to approve resolution 2009 -02, which granted the requested
use permit subject to conditions. However the church went through a change in
leadership during this time. Due to this change, the daycare was not pursued and
CUP 08-13 expired. The current land use application is similar to CUP 08 -13,
except that the current request is for 60 children with up to 7 staff. The conditions
of approval that staff recommends herein are similar to those adopted by the
Planning Commission for CUP 08-13.
6) General Plan Consistency: The City's General Plan designates the subject site
for Low Density Residential uses which supports religious and daycare uses as
compatible with primary residential land uses. As such, the proposal conforms to
the goals and policies of the General Plan. Additional goals and policies that
pertain to the proposed project are discussed below:

Policy
1.01
Pattern of Development.
Ensure an orderly,
contiguous pattern of
development that prioritizes
infill development and
avoids land use
incompatibilities.
The proposed use would be located
within an existing building and would
be an efficient use of an existing
structure, as the space was previously
used for bible classes. The proposed
daycare facility would be compatible
with the surrounding residential uses.
7) Conformance with Zoning Code Development Standards: The proposed
development is located in the Single Family Residential (R-1) zone district. In
accordance with the Gilroy City Code (GCC), Section 30.11.10(c) Residential Land
Use Table, the proposed Day Care Center may be permitted with approval of a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP). No building additions or significant site
modifications are proposed. The outdoor play area and associated accessory
structures can be accommodated within the existing outdoor space behind the
building. The play area and improvements would comply with Se ction 30.46.30(e)
which allows accessory structures to encroach up to 50-percent into required side
yard and rear yard setbacks. The R1 zone requires a minimum 6 -foot side yard
setback and 15-foot rear yard setback, and the structures in the play area woul d
not encroach within the setbacks.
8) Staff Analysis for Conditional Use Permit (CUP 18-02): The proposed child
care center would utilize the existing building, and includes minor interior
improvements and construction of a new playground area. The details are further
described below.
Description of Proposed Use
Operations
The child care center facility is proposed within an existing 8,400 square foot
building. All associated activities would be accommodated on the first floor of the
existing structure, utilizing up to 4,200 square feet. Five rooms are designated for
the daycare use; these five rooms were previously used as church classrooms for
children and adults. The floor plans depict three existing rooms that are currently
used as nurseries. These nursery rooms will remain nurseries and are not part of
the scope of this CUP application. The floor also would provide restrooms, an
office, three storage rooms and existing janitor’s closet.
Hours of operation would be Monday through Friday from 6:30 am to 6:30 pm.
There is no specific pick-up/drop-off time as enrollment is based on family needs
and schedule. The subject parcel has a designated ingress and a designated
5.A
Packet Pg. 10

egress. Parents would enter through the southern portion of the parcel’s ingress,
drive to the rear of the lot, drop-off/pick-up child and exit through the northern
portion of the parcel’s egress. The applicant is proposing a maximum of 60 children
capacity for children between two years and six years; or entering first grade.
There would also be a maximum of seven employees in the day care center.
Existing church uses would overlap the daycare use. Bible studies are held on
Monday through Thursday, between the hours of 9:00 am to 2:00 pm for 5 to 15
people. On Wednesdays, the church offers youth and adult bible studies for 25 to
40 people, which are held between 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. On Fridays the church
offices are closed, however, typically there may be up to eight people on campus
working on church related projects. The peak parking dem and has been evaluated
below.
Parking
There are currently 105 parking spaces provided onsite for all uses; which include
the sanctuary, offices, daycare and bible studies and residential apartment unit.
However, given the varied demand of primary uses on the site, parking would be
adequate as further discussed herein.
A total of 21 spaces are required for the proposed daycare operation based on the
following calculation:
Requirement Proposed Total spaces required
One (1) stall/ employee + two
(2) stalls
Seven (7) employees Nine (9) stalls
One (1) loading space / five
(5) children
Sixty (60) children
max.
Twelve (12) stalls
21 spaces required
for daycare use
The 344 seat church sanctuary requires 86 spaces at a ratio of one space per
every 4 seats (per GCC Section 30.31.23). However, church services are held on
weekends or evenings, at times that the day care will be closed. Therefore, as
proposed there would be no overlap between uses primary church services and
daycare uses.
A maximum of 40 people may attend bible studies during times the daycare facility
is operating. The parking demand for this activity is 1 space per 4 students (i.e., 10
spaces). Thus the 105 space parking lot would exceed the highest anticipated
parking demand.
The Church holds three events per year, an Easter event, a graduation event and a
Christmas event. However these events are always held on the weekends and
therefore would not affect the daycare’s parking requirements. Though not likely,
there is a potential for parking supply to exceed demand if large events were held
5.A
Packet Pg. 11

concurrent with daycare operations. Therefore, consistent with the prior CUP
approval and as a precaution, staff is recommending a condition of approval that
limits the size of Church to events during daycare hours of operation. Any such
events should not exceed the available remaining supply (e.g., 84 spaces during
day care use or 74 spaces when daycare use overlaps bible studies). If parking for
concurrent Church and daycare uses routinely exceeds the supply, the Church
would be required to develop the open field on the west side of their site to meet
City standards
9) FINDINGS: In accordance with Gilroy City Code Section 30.50.30(b), two required
findings must be supported for consideration of a Conditional Use Permit request.
Staff has evaluated each of the required findings for approval and determined that
CUP 18-02 can be supported as noted below:
(1) That the proposed use is properly located in relation to the general plan and to
the community as a whole and to other land uses and to transportation and
service facilities in the vicinity.
Staff Findings of Consistency: The proposed Daycare Facility would be
located within an existing building that is currently being used for bible studies.
Surrounding land uses consist primarily of Single family residences. The
proposed use would be compatible with the surrounding uses. Additionally the
site has adequate access to the roadway and existing city services. This
project is consistent with this standard.
(2) That the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions upon which approval is
made contingent, will not adversely affect other property in the vicinity, or
cause any damage, hazard, or nuisance to persons or property.
Staff Findings of Consistency: The new daycare operation is not anticipated to
have any negative impact of other properties in the vicinity, or cause any
damage, hazard or nuisance to persons or property, as the current use of
church sanctuary and bible study classrooms has not caused any negative
impact to the neighborhood.
Based on the findings staff supports a recommendation of approval by the
Planning Commission, with the conditions included in draft resolution of approval.
10) Technical Advisory Committee (TAC): Project plans were routed to Engineering,
Building, Police, and Fire representatives for internal review and comment. The
TAC considered the project on September 7, 2018. Recommendations of the TAC
members have been incorporated into the project plans and/or are included as
recommended conditions in attached resolution(s). There was an initial concern,
from Public Works, regarding pick-up/drop-off, and required a plan and description
of how this was going to be achieved. However, due to state law, clients must park
and pick-up/drop-off children in person. The operator would require parents to
sign-in and sign-out when dropping off and picking up their children.
5.A
Packet Pg. 12

11) Bicycle Pedestrian Committee (BPC): The proposed project would not impact
the existing pedestrian / bike / trail system. Therefore, the Traffic Engineer
determined that review by the Bicycle Pedestrian Committee is not necessary.
12) Gilroy Unified School District (GUSD): The proposed project does not include
any residential uses, and, therefore, would not result in any impact to the Gilroy
Unified School District. However, GUSD was made aware of this request as they
are on the TAC distribution list.
13) Noticing: Property owner information (i.e. list, labels, and map) within 500 feet of
the subject site were generated by Old Republic Title Company using current
ownership data. On January 16, 2019, notices of this Planning Commission
meeting were mailed to the property owners along within other interested parties.
In addition, the property has been posted with on -site signage notifying passersby
of pending development, and the Planning Commission public hearing packets are
available through the City's webpage.
14) Appeal Procedure: In accordance with Section 30.51.50 of the Gilroy City Code,
the Planning Commission's decision may be appealed, in writing, to the City
Council within 20 days of adoption of the resolution. Appeal forms may be obtained
from the City Clerk and must be submitted with the appropriate fee before the end
of the appeal period.

DATE: February 7, 2019
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Melissa Durkin, Planner II
SUBJECT: Z 18-08 (18110002)
1) Request: Z 18-08 (zone change) requests approval of a zoning map amendment
from Open Space (OS) to Commercial Industrial (CM) for a 103+/- acre site
commonly known as the Barberi and Denice/Filice properties. The property is
located northeast of Bolsa Road (APN 841-31-003, 019 and 022). No development
is proposed at this time. The City Council certified an EIR for this site as part of the
Gilroy 2020 General Plan on June 13, 2002 via application GPA 99-01 [State
Clearinghouse number 99052046]. Application filed by George Renz of Renz &
Renz on behalf of the property owners, 7500 Arroyo Circle, Suite 170, Gilroy, CA
95020.
2) Recommendation: Staff has analyzed the proposed project, and recommends
that the Planning Commission:
a) Adopt a resolution recommending that the City Council approve Zone
Change application Z 18-08 as requested, subject to certain findings.
3) Subject Property and Surrounding Land Uses: The subject site presently
contains agriculture-related structures and productive agricultural land.

4) Environmental Assessment: On June 13, 2002, the Gilroy City Council certified
the Gilroy 2020 General Plan environmental impact report (EIR) [see GPA 99-01].
The City Council found that the General Plan and Final EIR contained many
policies, actions and mitigation measures, which when implemented, would lessen
most identified environmental impacts to less-than-significant levels. However, the
following impacts could not be reduced to less-than-significant levels: agricultural
resources, transportation/traffic, air quality, noise, and biological resources. The
City Council determined that these impacts were significant and unavoidable and
adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations prior to EIR certification.
The proposed rezoning presented in this report is consistent with the provisions of
the adopted General Plan for which the 2002 EIR was certified. In accordance with
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), under Public Resources Code
section 21083.3 (b), “Application of Division to Approval of Subdivision Map or
Other Project” provides that development projects consistent with a general plan,
and for which an EIR has been certified, shall limit additional CEQA review “to
effects on the environment which are peculiar to the parcel or to the project and
which were not addressed as significant effects in the prior environmental impact
report, or which substantial new information shows will be more significant than
described in the prior environmental impact report.” Because this project does not
include a proposal to develop the site or change the land use, the project is not
subject to any mitigation measures or further review under CEQA section 21083.3
(b). This relief from additional environmental review is restated by CEQA
Guidelines section 15183. Therefore, no additional CEQA analysis is required for
this zone change request.
5) Background Information: The subject site was annexed into Gilroy city limits in
1992 [S. Monterey Reorganization 91-2, Resolution 92-35]. Upon annexation, the
city gave the site a zoning designation of Open Space, which was consistent with
the site’s General Plan land use designation of Open Space.
As part of the 2020 General Plan update, the City, in 2002, revised this site’s
General Plan land use designation to General Services Commercial. The 2020
General Plan states that the following zoning districts are consistent with the
General Services Commercial designation: Shopping Center Commercial (C3);
Highway Commercial (HC); and Commercial Industrial (CM). The General Plan
lists the following zoning districts as potentially consistent with the General
Services Commercial designation: Professional Office (PO) and Neighborhood
Commercial (C1).
5.B
Packet Pg. 26

The requested zone change application (Z 18-08) proposes to rezone
approximately 103 acres from Open Space (OS) to Commercial Industrial (CM) so
that the site zoning designation conforms to the adopted Gilroy 2020 General Plan
land use category. At this time, no development is proposed as part of this request.
6) General Plan Consistency: The City's General Plan designates the subject site
for General Services Commercial uses, which supports the proposed project
request. As such, the proposal conforms to the goals and policies of the General
Plan. Key goals and policies, which pertain to the proposed project are discussed
below:
POLICY # TITLE AND SUMMARY ANALYSIS
1.01 Pattern of Development.
Ensure an orderly, contiguous
pattern of
Development, prioritizing infill,
phasing new development,
encouraging compactness
and efficiency, preserving
surrounding open space and
agricultural resources, and
avoiding land use
incompatibilities
Rezoning this site would continue the
pattern of commercial and industrial
development established in this area.
Because this property is at the southern
boundary of city limits, surrounding County
land uses will be preserved as agricultural
resources in accordance with County
ordinances and policies.
Determination: the proposed rezoning is
consistent with this General Plan policy.
1.02 Mix of Uses. Create a
diverse mix of land uses to
achieve a balance between
jobs and housing and to
ensure the community’s long-
term viability.
Rezoning this site to CM would allow
commercial and industrial businesses to
develop. These businesses would
produce jobs and potentially generate
taxes benefitting the city and contributing
toward long-term community viability.
Determination: the proposed rezoning is
consistent with this General Plan policy.
2.01 Location of Growth.
Maximize existing
infrastructure and service
Investments and avoid
premature investment for
facility and service extensions
by directing new growth to
vacant and underutilized lands
within the Urban Service Area.
Utilities have recently been extended to
the Performance Food Group development
north of the subject site. Rezoning the
subject site, and its subsequent
development, would extend these utilities,
maximizing the use of this infrastructure.
Determination: the proposed rezoning is
consistent with this General Plan policy.
2.13 Urban Growth Boundary. The subject site is within Gilroy’s Urban
5.B
Packet Pg. 27
4
POLICY # TITLE AND SUMMARY ANALYSIS
The City’s Urban Growth
Boundary (UGB) protects the
health, safety, welfare, and
quality of life of the residents
of Gilroy by concentrating
future residential, commercial,
and industrial growth in areas
already served by urban
services. The policies
implementing the UGB allow
sufficient flexibility within its
limits to respond to the City's
changing needs over time.
Growth Boundary, as well as within City
limits, and has urban services in close
proximity. Rezoning this site to CM will
allow the property to develop in
accordance with the General Plan land
use designation.
Determination: the proposed rezoning is
consistent with this General Plan policy.
3.01 Jobs and Revenue. Attract
industrial, high-tech, and
commercial office employers
to provide a diversity of well-
paid job opportunities for local
residents and to broaden the
City’s revenue base, ensuring
adequate resources over time
to support the provision of
quality city services.
Rezoning this site to CM would allow
development of commercial and industrial
businesses. These businesses would
produce jobs and potentially generate
taxes supporting the provision of quality
city services.
Determination: the proposed rezoning is
consistent with this General Plan policy.
3.04 Industrial Growth.
Encourage new industrial
uses to locate in Gilroy that
can provide jobs for Gilroy
residents.
Rezoning this site to CM would increase
the available supply of commercial and
industrial land, providing additional
opportunities for job development with8in
the city.
7) Staff Analysis for Zone Change (Z 18-08): The proposed project would rezone
an approximate 103-acre site from Open Space (OS) to Commercial Industrial
(CM) to be consistent with the City’s General Plan land use designation of General
Services Commercial. The Gilroy 2020 General Plan sets forth an implementation
action that calls for rezoning sites for consistency with the General Plan land use
map. Specifically, Action 1.A. “Zoning Ordinance” states,
“Update the Gilroy Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map to be consistent with
the Land Use Plan Map and related policies of the updated General Plan.
Rezone areas inconsistent with the Land Use Plan Map, as appropriate, and
update the zoning district descriptions to reflect the updated land use
designation descriptions” (2020 General Plan, Page 4-42).
The proposed zoning map amendment will bring this property into compliance with
the site’s General Plan designation, as directed by this implement ation action.
5.B
Packet Pg. 28

The General Plan indicates three zoning districts would be consistent with the
General Services Commercial land use designation: C3, HC, and CM; and two
other zoning districts would potentially be consistent: PO and C1. The applicant’s
proposed rezoning to CM would allow the site to develop consistent with the
Zoning Ordinance “Statement of Intent” for the CM zone, which states, “[the] intent
of the CM commercial industrial district is to provide areas in the city suitable for
low intensity commercial uses that exist in combination with light manufacturing or
light industrial uses” (GCC section 30.17.10).
Of all the potential zoning districts for this property, staff believes the CM zoning
district is the best choice. The reason is that this area has limited freeway visibility
and access, limiting its potential for high-intensity commercial development. In
contrast, this site is located adjacent to other sites that have a mixture of light
industrial, light manufacturing and low-intensity commercial uses. Potential uses
that could be developed on this site after its rezoning to CM would be consistent
with the other uses in this area. In addition, the site’s adjacen cy to the SCRWA
plant limits its suitability for high-intensity commercial uses.
Neither development of this site nor changing the site’s land use is contemplated
as part of this application. Future development or a change in land use will require
preparation of an environmental evaluation in compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act and City approval of discretionary applications.
8) Technical Advisory Committee (TAC): Project plans were routed to Engineering,
Building, Police, and Fire representatives for internal review and comment. The
TAC considered the project on August 30, 2018. Recommendations of the TAC
members have been incorporated into the project plans.
9) Noticing: Property owner information (i.e. list, labels, and map) within 500 feet of
the subject site were generated by Chicago Title Company using current ownership
data. On January 23, 2019, notices of this Planning Commission meeting were
mailed to the property owners along with other interested parties. In addition, the
property has been posted with on-site signage notifying passers-by of pending
development, and the Planning Commission public hearing packets are available
through the City's webpage.
10) Appeal Procedure: The Planning Commission's action is not final, but rather a
recommendation. As such, the matter will be considered by the City Council at a
later date.

that there will be about 5 meetings remaining as part of the General Plan 2040
update process.
The GPAC is comprised of 30 members, representing a wide array of interests and
values throughout the Gilroy community. Membership is by appointment of the City
Council and is intended to remain constant throughout the General Plan process.
They provide input and guidance throughout the General Plan 2040 efforts.
High Speed Rail Advisory Committee (HSRA)
Meetings of the HSRA are scheduled as needed and are conducted in the
evenings. The meeting locations vary, based on room availability.
The HSRA is comprised of 10 members, representing various downtown
stakeholders. Membership is by appointment of the City Council and is intended to
remain constant throughout the HSR Station Area Planning efforts. Currently,

preferred HSR alignment, which is expected to be determined by the California
High Speed Rail Authority later this year.
Historic Heritage Committee (HHC)

p.m. in the Council Chambers.
The HHC is comprised of 5 members, including 3 community members, a City

The Sign Committee was organized in 2012 to evaluate policies relating to signs,
with a particular focus on handheld, temporary, window, A -frame, portable, off-site
residential open house signs as well as temporary banners, f lags, balloons, and
streamers. A major update to the Sign Ordinance was adopted in 2014, addressing

temporary banners. The work by the committee has been incorporated into an
ordinance amendment, and committee is now disbanded.
South County Joint Planning Advisory Committee (SCJPAC)
Meetings of the SCJPAC are conducted 3 times a year, on the 2 nd Thursday in the
months of February, June, and October. The meetings are conducted in the
Morgan Hill Civic Center and generally begin at 7:00 p.m.
The SCJPAC was originally created in 1984, and later (in 1987) re -formed as a
Phase II effort to guide South County planning and development, with a focus on
implementation of the South County Joint Area Plan. With a total of 14 members,
Gilroy contributes 4 representatives (2 at large, 1 City Council member, and 1
Planning Commissioner). The primary function of the SCJPAC is to conduct
coordinated reviews of projects that have a regional significance.
Street Naming Committee (SNC)
Meetings of the SNC are scheduled on an as-needed basis. This committee makes
recommendations to the City Council on street names for new City-planned
collectors, arterials, and expressways. The SNC also considers proposed changes
to existing street names. Although the committee rarely meets, there is no intention
to disband this group.
Gilroy Downtown Business Association (GDBA)
The GDBA Board of Directors meets monthly on the 1st Tuesday of each month at
6:00 p.m. Meeting locations vary as the group likes to highlight a new downtown
spot each month.
There are currently 13 Board members representing various businesses and
services in downtown Gilroy. The GDBA encourages and promotes economic
growth to create a unique and vibrant downtown core through advocacy and
marketing while respecting the downtown history. Several Board Advisors also

SUBJECT: Introduction of Budget Requests Process for next Budget Cycle
1) Request:
a) Motion to Receive Report.
City staff are in the initial phases of budget development for Fiscal Years (FY) 2019-20
and 2020-21. The City Council asked staff during the 2017 budget process to seek input
of commissions in the development of future budgets. Staff is requesting budget
requests from commissions early in the process to receive input on what the City’s
commissions would like to see funded in the upcoming budget cycle. Some requests
may be included by staff into the staff recommended budget, but all comments will be
compiled and Council will see all requests in the staff report and potentially the budget
book itself.
Each commission is requested to identify what they desire to be funded, and an
estimate of the cost to accomplish the request. Requests should link to one or more of
the following:
o Any commission/committee work plan that has been established;
o Any master plan that the commission/committee works under; or
o Any Council Strategic Plan goal
Staff will return at the next meeting to receive the comments and requests for budget
appropriations. Comments and request should be issued by the Commission
collectively, not each individual member. An action to approve the recommendations is
advisable.
