A finding of a Categorical Exemption was filed with the City Clerk on August 9, 2005. BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS The applicant, United Development Group, Inc., has filed Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5409 and a Condominium Conversion Application for the Winery Estates apartment complex on 4.55 acres of property located on the northwest corner of East McKinley and North Winery Avenues. The map would subdivide the apartment complex into a one common lot subdivision. The one common lot subdivision would allow for the sale of the individual airspace to buyers and would require that all buyers of residential I REPORT TO THE CITY COUN�1L "Winery Estates"Condominium Conversion Application Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5409 September 27, 2005 Page 4 airspace share in common ownership of all buildings, streets, open space, walls, etc., for the 4.55 acre site. The City's Condominium Conversion Ordinance (Article 9, Chapter 12, Fresno Municipal Code), adopted on June 3, 1980, and substantially amended November 17, 1981, establishes regulations for the conversion of existing multiple family rental dwelling units to condominiums. The ordinance provides for twice yearly review of applications.by the Planning Commission with final action by the City Council. This condominium conversion application is being considered during the review period, which began December 1, 2004. The ordinance.contains provisions that allow prospective buyers of converted units to be able to make informed decisions with.regard to purchase and to be assured that the converted units meet the basic standards of safety, comfort and utility, and that tenants of the proposed conversion be protected from any impacts associated with the condominium conversion process. Important provisions of the Condominium Conversion Ordinance include: • Provisions to protect rental housing adjacent to institutions where 'it is desirable to maintain the supply of rental housing. • Storage space requirement of 60 cubic*feet per unit. • Providing one washer/dryer for every five units • Tenant relocation plans must be responsive to tenant makeup of the project. • Tenant noticing and other tenant's rights provisions to conform to State Ilaw. • Semi-annual application filing deadlines of June 1 and December 1 of each year. • Provision prohibiting approval of projects where discriminatory , rental practices have occurred. Pursuant to the State Subdivision Map Act (SMA) and the Condominium Conversion Ordinance, Section 12-905(c), the Planning Commission shall hear testimony on the proposed conversion and make a recommendation to the City Council. The City Council, following the decision by the Planning Commission, shall not approve the final map for a subdivision to be created from the conversion of residential real property into a condominium project unless it finds, pursuant to Section 66427.1 of the SMA that the "requirements for notice of tenants and right of tenants to exclusive contract for purchase in condominium projects"have been complied with and that all required findings (a through e) of this section have been met. Also, the City Council must find that all requirements of Section 66452.8 and Section 66452.9 of the SMA have been complied with, and Section 12-909-a and b of the Condominium Conversion Ordinance of the FMC. McLane Community Plan Advisory Committee The project is located,within the McLane Community Plan area which has no citizen advisory committee. Fresno City Planning Commission On August 17, 2005, the Fresno City Planning Commission considered the tract map and condominium conversion application. The applicant indicated that tenants who were living at the Winery Estates and received the Notice of Intent to Convert the apartments into condominiums are entitled to the benefits of the Tenant Relocation and Assistance Plan (TRAP). The Plan provides monetary assistance, lifetime leases for elderly and extended leases for students who are currently enrolled in' 12 units or more seeking a degree at a post-secondary educational institution or vocational, training program. The monetary assistance and/or extended leases are required to be offered to each tenant when the tenant receives: their 180 Day Notice to Vacate. The applicant further acknowledged that any new tenant that moved into the Winery Estates apartment complex that signed a six month rental lease or a year long rental lease after the Notice of Intent to Convert was delivered, would not be forced to vacate their unit until such time REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL "Winery Estates"Condominium Conversion Application Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5409 September 27, 2005 - Page 5 that their lease expires. The applicant further acknowledged that any tenant that moved into the Winery Estates after the initial Notice of Intent to Convert is not eligible for benefits'of the TRAP. After a full hearing, the Planning Commission, by a vote of 5-0 with one commissioner recused, recommended approval to the City Council of Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5409 and the related Condominium Conversion of the "Winery Estates" apartments. Building and Site Requirements ...The Condominium Conversion Ordinance requires that all units proposed for conversion meet minimum housing and building standards, and Zoning Ordinance standards primarily relating to parking, access, walls, and public improvement standards. Staff has prepared conditions of approval relating to the buildings and site requirements, which are contained in the..Change of Use/Occupancy Investigation Report, dated September 9, 2004, and in the conditions of approval for the tract map dated August 17, 2005. These requirements include maintaining compliance with the California Building Code, obtaining proper permits for the remodeled office, providing additional parking spaces, requiring that the tree requirements of one tree for every unit and one tree for every required parking,space be maintained, and providing 60 cubic feet of lockable storage area for each of the 106 units. Tenant Provisions Section 66451.3 of the SMA and the Condominium Conversion Ordinance (Section 12-909-a and b of the FMC) require that if the proposed.subdivision is a conversion of residential real property, a notice of public hearing be given by the city to each tenant of the subject property, and shall;include notification of;the tenants' right to appear and be heard. Furthermore, Section 12-904(f) of the ;Condominium Conversion Ordinance requires that the applicant/owner provide a Tenant Relocation and Assistance Plan (TRAP)' to any tenants that might be displaced by the sale of the unit in which they reside. , Based upon a review and analysis of the applicant's proposed TRAP, staff concludes that the proposed plan for the Winery Estates project appears to meet the minimum requirements of the Condominium Conversion Ordinance. The information provided to existing and prospective tenants includes provisions to aid special classes`of tenants. These include lifetime leases for elderly tenants and extended leases for full time students. These provisions are contained in the submitted TRAP. However, it should be noted the rental rateJor the lifetime and extended student lease agreements may be increased during the term of the lease only in a manner provided in detail by the subdivider in the tenant plan but in no event shall any such increase be greater than eight percent per year. According to the lease agreements provided by the applicant, rent will be increased on an annual basis of eight percent compounded annually for those tenants that request a lifetime or extended student least. The TRAP contains the required minimum provisions, which may help to alleviate any impact upon tenants, which may be caused by tenancy termination as a result of the conversion. In addition, the TRAP states that a full refund of the security deposit will be given to tenants forced to vacate units, which is in addition to the required two-month rent equivalent relocation fee. It should also be noted that the project rent roll dated September 9, 2004, has indicated that there are 16 units within the Winery Estates which have tenants who receive Housing Choice Vouchers (Section 8), which is administered by the Housing Authorities of the City and County of Fresno. According to the TRAP submitted by the applicant, the tenants of these 16 units will not receive any special assistance above and beyond what will be offered to the other tenants. In addition, all new tenants that have moved into the apartment complex after the filing of the condominium conversion application have signed, of their own accord, a Notice of Intent to Convert which notifies the prospective tenant that the apartment complex is in the process of being converted to condominiums and may be sold. Upon signing this notice the tenant acknowledges that no assistance will be provided for relocating if the unit they occupy is sold or upon receiving the 180-day notice to vacate. REPORT TO THE CITY COUNUIL "Winery Estates"Condominium Conversion Application Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5409 September 27, 2005 Page 6 The applicant has also provided the city a Comparable Housing Availability Report, which is available to all tenants who may choose to leave Winery Estates voluntarily or who are forced to relocate due to the conversion process. This report, which is on file with the Planning and ;Development Department, provides comparable rental housing availability within a mile proximity to the proposed condominium conversion project. The applicant has also indicated in the TRAP that there will be a tenant relations representative to assist each tenant in the relocation process. Consistency with Adopted Plans and Local Ordinances The Fresno Yosemite International Airport and Environs Plan, the McLane Community Plan and 2025 Fresno General Plan designate the site for medium-high density planned land use and is zoned R-3 (Medium Density Multiple Family Residential District). Pursuant to Table 2 (Planned Land Use and Zone District Consistency Matrix) of the 2025 Fresno General Plan, the R-3 zone district does not conform to the medium-high density residential planned land use designation. However, Government Code Section 66427.2 (Subdivision Map Act) of the State of California does not mandate planned land use consistency findings for condominium projects which consist of the subdivision of airspace in an existing structure unless new units are to be constructed or added. The project, as proposed, consists of existing structures with no habitable additions. As documented in the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the Fresno City Housing Element adopted on June 18, 2002, housing affordability in the city is declining. Although the city has recently experienced a greater than predicted increase in the number of new homes, increases in costs have made it prohibitive for various individuals and families to purchase them. As a result, many families that cannot purchase homes are forced to pay rent on a month-to-month basis. According to the 2025 Fresno General Plal" and the Fresno City Housing Element, condominiums provide for an "affordable" housing alternative to individuals that may prefer the benefits associated with condominium home ownership. Although conversions of multiple family apartment complexes into condominiums provides an alternative to conventional single family home ownership, it diminishes the,number of apartment units available within the surrounding area that often provide housing options to a segment.of the community which are often disadvantaged individuals that are unable to purchase homes. In addition, when considered together with the recent conversion of three other apartment complexes (i.e. 220-unit "Villa Santa Fe", 118-unit "Emerald Estates" and the 18-unit "Boston Village") the proposed conversion would further reduce the number of available rental units. However, it should be stated that although the;conversion of apartments decreases the number of rentals within the city it does provide individuals with a wider-range of opportunity for homeownership. In addition, the Comparable Housing Availability Report provides a list of apartment complexes within one mile of the site that have comparable amenities to the Winery Estates, a copy of which is provided to each tenant opting to vacate and request assistance for replacement housing. The proposed conversion is considered to be consistent with the adopted policies of the 2025 Fresno General Plan and Fresno City Housing Element relating to condominium conversions and to be in conformance with the purposes of the city's Condominium Conversion Ordinance. Based upon the above analysis and subject to compliance with the conditions of project approval dated August 17, 2005, the building standards and the proposed Winery Estates TRAP provisions, the 'condominium conversion project meets the criteria established by Article 9, Chapter 12 of the FMC. Major Street Improvement The site is accessed via East McKinley and North Winery Avenues. The 2025 Fresno General Plar, designates East McKinley Avenue as an arterial and North Winery Avenue as a local residential street: Given that the site is currenity developed with apartments, minimal off-site improvements are required. REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL "Winery Estates" Condominium Conversion Application a Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5409 September 27, 2005 Page 7 i However, the applicant will be required to dedicate and install a wheelchair ramp at the corner of the East McKinley and North Winery Avenues. Other requirements include undergrounding the existing street lighting system within the limits of the tract, and the repair or replacement of all damaged off-grade concrete street improvements as appropriate. These street improvements are outlined in more detail in the Conditions of Approval dated August 17, 2005. i Condominium.Conversion Findings i The City's Condominium Conversion Ordinance (Section 12-905-e) provides'that the following findings must be considered prior to approval of any application for condominium conversion. The findings represent one basis for the staff recommendation in this report, and should be considered by the Commission and Council in the review of the application. In each case, an application for condominium conversion may be denied if one or more of the following findings are made: 1. The overall design and physical condition of the condominium conversion does not achieve a high degree of appearance, comfort, safety, and utility. I 2. The cumulative effect of the condominium conversion would cause a significant percentage of low- and moderate-income rental units to be removed from the city's housing stock. i 3. The tenant relocation and assistance plan proposed by an applicant will not sufficiently reduce the detrimental impact of the conversion on tenants, including special classes iof tenants(elderly, handicapped, students, families with young children, and members of low income groups). 4. Vacancies have been caused by the applicant for the purpose of preparing the project for conversion, by means of substantive rent increases, evictions,.or terminations of tenancy. 5. Approval of the proposed conversion would cause displacement of any special classes of tenants, (as noted above No. 3) in an area without sufficient available comparable replacement housing. 6. The subdivider has engaged in discriminatory rental practices against groups referred to in.No. 3, above. 7. Approval of the condominium conversion would be inconsistent with the purposes of the Condominium Conversion Ordinance and with the general health and well;being of city residents. Subdivision Map Act Findings The Subdivision 'Map Act (California Government Code Section 66410 et seq.) requires that a proposed subdivision for condominium conversion purposes not be approved unless it is found to be consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan policies related to condominium conversions. I The City's General Plan Housing Element contains policies related to condominium conversion generally similar to the condominium conversion ordinance findings noted above. The McLane Community Plan and the 2025 Fresno General Plan promote a diversified housing market, which is necessary to encourage residential development in the surrounding area. Staff concludes approval of the submitted condominium conversion application would be consistent with city plans� and policies related to condominium conversion in the McLane Community Plan Area. i i i i REPORT TO THE CITY COUNUIL "Winery Estates"Condominium Conversion Application z Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5409 September 27, 2005 Page 8 The Subdivision Map Act, Section 66427.1, further requires that the local legislative body (City Council) find that all tenants have received a 60-day notice of intent to convert (which staff has verified). The state law also requires that the Council find that each tenant and each person applying for rental of a unit has, or will have, received all notices and rights required by State law (compliance mandated by city ordinance). Further findings must be made at final map approval. Additionally, State law provides that any subdivision application be denied if it is found that the site is unsuitable, the natural environment will be damaged, .there are problems related to public health and safety or public easements, or that feasible energy conservation measures are not provided for. Staff concludes approval of the application would be consistent with these findings. If The tentative tract map, subject to the recommended conditions of approval dated August 17, 2005, complies with the design and property development standards of the Zoning Ordinance and local Subdivision Ordinance. Based upon the plans and information submitted by the applicant and the recommended conditions of project approval, staff has determined that these findings can be made. Action by the Planning Commission regarding the condominium conversion application and the proposed tentative tract map is a recommendation to the City Council. i CONCLUSION The appropriateness of the proposed project has been examined with the respect to its consistency wit .goals and policies of the Fresno Yosemite International Airport and Environs Plan, the McLan Community Plan, the 2025 Fresno General Plan and the Condominium Conversion Ordinance; its compatibility with surrounding uses; and, its avoidance of potentially significant adverse environmental impacts. These factors have been evaluated as described above and by the accompanying tenant relocation plan, comparable housing availability report, and environmental assessment. Upon consideration of this evaluation, it can be concluded that the Condominium Conversion Application and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 5409 is appropriate for the project site.

In view of these factors, the following policy statement is proposed: I Policy 1) All proposed development activity shall be the subject of a detailed hydrological flood hazard investigation to determine the relationship of the proposed development,to the secondary flood plain and the primary flood plain; and, further, to identify the estimated high water elevation of the 100- year flood event. 2) All development and/or permanent improvement activity which, if located within the primary floodway, may.unduly impede, retard, or change the direction of flow of water either,by itself, or by the catching or collecting of other.debris or is placed where the flow of waterr would carry such obstruction downstream to the damage or detriment of either life or property, should not be permitted: i Secondary Flood Plains i Because development within secondary flood plains is subject to inundation,but:without the threat of increased velocities of flood waters, and because the excessive development of the secondary flood plain can result in increased water surface elevations through displacement of flood.waters, the. following policy statement is suggested: I Policy 1) Development in secondary flood plains is generally ;acceptable when a detailed hydrological flood hazard investigation report had been prepared indicating that the area proposed for development is located within a secondary as opposed to a primary flood plain. i 2) The development must be properly flood proofed below the estimated high water elevation of the 100-year flood event. i 3) The development is accomplished in such a way las to prohibit the displacement of any and all flood waters from that portion of the flood plain to be developed. en,lenorform\floodplain policy-form i , - i City of ■ A ■�sL'L�%1� i Development Department 2600 Fresno Streat • Third Floor Nick Yovino, AICD Fresno, California 93721-3644 Director (559) 521-8004 FAX(559)488-1020 CONDOM MUM CONVERSxON.

(Adopted by City Council policy resolution adopted July 12, 1988.) GENERAL 1. A "paved. parking lot" shall include parking stalls, driveways, and maneuvering areas 2. Trees planted to satisfy the requirements of these guidelines are landscaping as defined by Municipal code and are subject to established landscaping requirements. SFFE PLAN REQUIRED 3. A landscape plan which details the degree of compliance with the Parking Lot Shade j Tree Ordinance is required. The plan shall show: a. All landscaped areas. b. Tree canopies drawn to scale "representing the estimated canopy at a fifteen year growth .period. c. The total area in square feet of the paved parking lot, driveways, and maneuver areas; and the area shaded by tree canopies. A schedule listing total parking area, shaded area, and. the percentage of parking area shaded should-be included. d. A schedule of the specific names of proposed trees and their sizes. 4. Such plan.shall be approved by the Development Department prior to issuance of building permits. However, the plan is encouraged to be submitted at the time of site plan review. METHODOLOGY 5. To simplify the process of determining compliance, the.true angle iof deflection of natural sunlight shall not be considered. Shaded areas shall be assumed to be only those portions of a paved.parking lot directly beneath.the shading canopy or drip line. fi. Shading shall be provided by tree canopies except that any portion of a paved parking lot directly beneath and shaded by a man made structure.(overhangs and covered parking for Instance) shall be deleted from the requirements of these performance standards and shall be subtracted from the area of the parking lot to be shaded. i 7. Credit shall be given only for surface area shaded. Multiple canopies shading the same surface area will not be counted as multiple credit. 8. Landscape planters beneath the canopy, may be considered as shaded parking areas for the purpose of determining compliance. j 9. Where more than five trees are to be planted, mix tree species. 10. Trees planted along the perimeter of a lot may be counted as providing shade for the full area of their canopy. 11. If the degree of overlap between trees .is less than 15 percent all;trees may be counted as shading 100 percent of their canopy. If the degree of overlap pis 15 percent or greater then it will be necessary to perform individual calculation to determine the ,area of shading. — 12. A Community Service Area, free from tree planting, may be allowed.if a facility first demonstrates that it has met the minimum shading requirements on the overall site. 13. A ten percent minor deviation of the shading standard may be approved by the Director in accordance with established procedures in the municipal code if it is found that the normal standards would impose an undue hardship. I ALLOWABLE SPECIES/CANOPY (Provided by Parks Department) MINIMUM TREE REQUIREMENT Provide one medium size tree for every two required parking spaces. (This .requirement may be waived by the Director if the standards for shading and perimeter planting have been met.) • 1 Disperse trees over the parking lot area to provide 50-percent shading of ;the parking area surface within 15 years. (This requirement may be reduced to 40 percent for existing development if it is demonstrated that the constraints of an existing site would make it Impossible to meet the normal standard_) Trees shall also be planted in the required landscaped areas along the periphery.of the development in order to shade and enhance adjacent property and public rights-of-ways. Trees shall be maintained in good health. However, trees may not be trimmed or pruned to reduce the natural height or overall crown of the tree, except as necessay for health of the tree and public safety; or as may otherwise be approved by the Development Department. i City of Fresno j Development Department Performance Standards for Per dng Lat Shading Page 2 MINIMUM PLANTER SIZE (Between tiers of .parking) Continuous Planter New Development Existing Development Standard Parking Stall S fQet fPP Compact Parking Stall F feAt 4 feet Along Periphery .10 feet except as may be approved pVrsuant to Municipal.

Caltrans has the following comments: The proposed development, in and of itself, is not expected to create significant impacts to the State Highway System. However, continued development has the potential to create cumulatively significant impacts to both transportation and air quality. As the General Plan Update Master EIR did not evaluate cumulative impacts to these resources,the City should consider a mechanism for evaluating and mitigating for them. The,City should consider a transit alternative for this project. There is sufficient development in this general area to support transit, and early planning could make such an alternative feasible. Caltrans recommends that this project be routed to Fresno Area Express (FAX) staff for their review and comment. Please see Attachment Number 1 for other recommended transportation alternatives. The City should consider using the"Toolbox"from the San Joaquin Valley Growth Response Study to prepare an analysis of the impacts created by this and other approved developments in the City. This would help to clarify issues that have been raised since the General Plan Update regarding densities in general and the High Rise Corridor specifically. Caltrans is available to partner with the City in this endeavor. We request that this letter be made a part of the permanent public record for this project and that a copy of our letter be included in the staff reports for both the City Council and the Planning Commission. This will provide-the decision-making body and the general public with a complete and accurate environmental evaluation for the project. If you have any questions, please call me at (559)445-6666.
