The zoning map(s) shall consist of the zoning map or maps of the city of Brentwood which show the zones being parts of this title under the provisions of this title. Such map(s) and all data shown thereon are adopted and made a part of this title as subsections A through M of this section. Such map or maps, properly attested, shall be and shall remain on file in the office of the city clerk.

(Ord. 408, 1987)

Boundaries and descriptions of the zones referred to in this title shall be shown on the zoning map(s), including all subsequent changes and additions thereto.

(Ord. 408, 1987)

Generally the maps shall govern the location of zoning boundaries; however, if uncertainty exists the following rules shall govern the city's interpretation.

A.

When Written Description Exists. Whenever the location of the boundary or other feature appearing on a map included in the zoning maps is indicated in a legal description or other written statement on file with the city, the location shall be interpreted precisely as described in such statement.

B.

When Location Approximates Lot Line or Other Line. Whenever no applicable legal description or other written statement exists, and the location of the boundary or other feature included in the zoning maps approximates an edge or centerline, as the case may be, of a street, alley, path, right-of-way or city boundary which was in existence when the boundary or other feature was established, the location of the boundary or other feature shall be interpreted to follow such edge or centerline. Whenever the location of such boundary or other feature approximates a predominant alignment within the block of lot lines or lines bounding parcels shown on a recorded subdivision plat or record of survey, which lot lines or parcel lines were in existence when such boundary or other feature was established, it shall be interpreted to follow such predominant alignment; provided, that such alignment is not more than thirty feet as measured perpendicularly at any point, from the apparent location which may be determined by using the scale on the map. C.

When Subsections A and B are Inoperative. Whenever the situations described in subsections A and B of this section are not applicable, the location of the boundary or other feature included in the zoning map shall be determined through use of the scale on the map. Should any further uncertainty exist, the location shall be interpreted by the planning officer. Such interpretation shall be subject to appeal pursuant to the administrative appeal procedure of Chapter 17.880.

D.

Lots Divided by Zone Boundaries. Whenever it is found, after applying the rules set forth in this section, that a lot is divided by a boundary between zones, the planning commission shall determine which regulations shall apply to such lots. The actual location of the zone boundary itself shall not be deemed to be changed by the commission's determination.

(Ord. 408, 1987)

Land which has been or is hereafter included in the vacation or disposal of any street, alley, path or any unzoned public property which has been or is hereafter annexed to the city of Brentwood, shall in the absence of rezoning action to the contrary, be deemed to be included in the same zone as the lots which it abuts. In case opposite sides of such lands are in different zones, the boundary between such zones shall be deemed to be the center of the land.

(Ord. 408, 1987)

Prior to the annexation to the city of any property and pursuant to Chapter 17.870, the sponsor of any annexations shall file an application for prezoning of the property to be annexed and the city shall establish the zoning which will be in effect on the effective date of the annexation. Such zoning shall be in conformance with the city's general plan.

Brentwood Boulevard within the boundaries of the BB zone is a distinguished portion of the city that extends between the city limits at Delta Road on the north and the downtown at Second Street on the south. The BBSP provides for a cohesive arrangement of uses, building types, frontage treatments, and street designs that function as integral parts of a single urban structure. Taken together, the expectation is that the structure over time will

result in an area comprised of an attractive and desirable streetscape environment along which well-designed buildings are located behind generous amounts of continuous landscaping and open space. The result is a prominent setting for new development and a framework for new neighborhood and workplace districts along one of the city's most visible corridors.

(Ord. 901 § 2, 2012)

These regulations shall apply to all properties zoned BB within the city.

To any property in the city at such time an application for rezoning for a planned development zone is made and to any property for which planned development zoning is approved;

B.

To all or part of any area in the city for which a specific plan has been approved;

C.

Rezoning to the planned development zone may be allowed through the approval by the city of a development plan showing the design of the project, the interrelationship of uses, their relation to the surrounding area and conformance of the plan to the community development plan and any applicable specific plan or following the adoption of an applicable specific plan.

(Ord. 857 § 2, 2008)

(Ord. 857 § 2, 2008; Ord. 1013 § 2, 2020)

A.

Except as otherwise specified in regulations with this document, development of the PD-6 zone shall be in accordance with existing city standards as contained in Brentwood Municipal Code Chapters 17.200 through 17.300.

B.

Lot sizes may vary with each planning area so long as minimum requirements contained in the zoning and development standards of this title are satisfied and the total number of units per planning area is not exceeded.

C.

Development applications within all planning areas shall comply with the Brentwood Municipal Code in respect to development and performance standards, landscaping and screening, parking, signage, lighting and design and site development review.

D.

Residential development adjacent to planning area four, Neighborhood Park and Sand Creek Regional Trail, must include a solid masonry wall and/or a view fence of consistent design treatment where backyard or side yard conditions abut the open space area. As an alternative, streets may also front on the open space area. E.

Where the Sand Creek Regional Trail crosses any streets, at grade crossings may occur provided signage, striping and other appropriate traffic control devices are installed.

F.

Improvements and conveyance of land for the purposes of implementing the Sand Creek Regional Trail shall be in accordance with the city's adopted trails master plan.

G.

Minor modifications to planning area boundaries may be approved by the director of community development.

H.

Development applications, such as subdivision maps, which incorporate common areas shall be accompanied by landscape plans for the common area.

I.

Prior to final map approval of the first implementing subdivision map, a concept plan shall be prepared and submitted to the city showing designs, location, size, materials, colors and appearance for all entry monumentation and landscaping, including city entry signage.

J.

The development area shall include a total of ten usable acres of neighborhood park area, the payment of in lieu fees, or a combination thereof, as required by the city's park master plan. Park sizes, locations and configurations in the land use plan are deemed acceptable. Facilities to be included in each park shall be in conformance with the city's parks master plan.

K.

Should an offer of dedication of land for park purposes be not accepted by the city, the applicant shall establish a permanent master maintenance organization, acceptable to the city, to assume ownership and maintenance responsibility for all common areas. The organization may be public or private, or a combination of both.

L.

Planning areas seven and eleven are designated as a candidate site for an affordable housing project, in accordance with the city's housing element of the general plan. A minimum five-acre site within one of these two areas will be reserved for city acquisition to insure the provision of housing to meet the city's needs for elderly, disabled, and lower income households.

M.

Potential park and ride sites are designated for planning areas one, two, three and eighteen. The community park could also satisfy the need for a park and ride site. A park and ride lot will vary between one half to one acre in size and typically include twenty to thirty spaces that are clearly set aside for that purpose, although they may also be shared with office, commercial, worship center and/or other institutional or park uses. When shared, park and ride lots should be located so as to not interfere with normal business operations of adjacent uses. As SPA "D" is subdivided and/or projects are developed, a more precise location for park and ride lots will be determined.

N.

Bus turnouts shall be provided at major intersection locations to accommodate future bus service in the area. As development is proposed, project plans will be reviewed by Tri-Delta Transit to insure appropriate design and location of bus turnouts and bus shelters.

O.

In accordance with the city's community design policy of minimizing the use of soundwalls along thoroughfares, developments within SPA "D" should be designed with a combination of earth berms, extensive landscaping, decorative wall features, stepped wall patterns, and other design features aimed at minimizing the visual impact of the soundwall.

P.

Where lots back up to major thoroughfares, rear yard architectural elevations should be designed with enhanced window trim and other features such as balconies and trellises to provide greater articulation and variety. If possible, mixing hip and gable roof forms and one and two story elevations is encouraged. (Ord. 857 § 2, 2008; Ord. 1013 § 2, 2020)

Chapter 17.463 PD-13 (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT THIRTEEN) ZONE (§ 17.463.001 – § 17.463.006)

The authority, purpose and intent for the adoption of the PD-13 (planned development thirteen) zone are as follows:

A.

Authority. PD-13 zone is adopted pursuant to the authority set forth in Chapter 17.450, Planned Development Zones—General Regulations of this code.

B.

Purpose and Intent. The purpose of the PD-13 zone is to permit and regulate the orderly development of the Balfour South and Gerry properties. Opportunities include providing a landscape/open space buffer along Sellers Avenue to Mount Diablo, providing a pedestrian oriented environment within the proximity of the downtown area, and providing a distinctive edge for the city. Constraints include the need to provide major infrastructure improvements such as drainage and sewer and ensuring that the residential development is compatible with the industrial park to the west and the agricultural uses to the east and south. The boundary of the PD-13 zoning district is as shown on the map in Section 17.463.006.

(Ord. 857 § 2, 2008)

The following general standards apply to PD-13:

A.

Subareas. PD-13 has been divided into separate areas based on land use. These include residential, parks, detention basin/open space, and street rights-of-way. The areas are indicated in the chart below. Street rights-of-way only includes Guthrie Lane, Balfour Road and Sellers Avenue. Local streets would be included in the residential acreage.

in the residential acreage.
Land Use Acres Max. Density Max. Units
Gerry Property 20.4 6.0 du/ac 122.40
Balfour South property 4.85 6.0 du/ac 29.10
Parks* 1.50
Detention/open space 2.90
Road right-of-way 3.80
Totals 33.45 151.00
Notes:
* The acreage for the park is indicated as a minimum acreage. The exact size, dimensions and
location will be determined through the use permit process.

B.

Master Plan. Through the use permit process, a master land use plan shall be approved by the planning commission prior to submittal for a tentative map or design review. The master plan shall include, but not be limited to, identifying the various land uses, the location and approximate dimensions of the park areas, the dimension and design of the open space areas, and the lot sizes. Staff and the planning commission may ask for additional information that will help in determining the approximate development of the property. C.

Density. The maximum unit count and overall density of six units per acre may not be exceeded for each property within the planned development. The density of any one product may go up to ten units per acre, provided that the average density for the property is not exceeded. The maximum unit for the entire planned development shall not exceed one hundred fifty-one units. There shall be no transfer of density between properties.

D.

Unit Count. Through approval of a master plan, tentative map or other discretionary action, the city may approve residential projects at less than the maximum allowable density due to such reasons as: 1.

Avoid or reduce significant environmental effects as identified in an environmental impact report;

Achieve compliance with objectives and policies of the general plan;

Certain characteristics of a property such as topography, utility easements, shape or other items which restrict the amount of development;

4.

Aesthetic or site planning considerations which will improve the quality of the development or increase its compatibility with adjacent land uses; or

5.

Compliance with the development regulations, or standards.

E.

CC&Rs. CC&Rs shall be provided for all properties located within planned development thirteen. CC&Rs are subject to city review and approval.

F.

Utilities. All utilities shall be built per the requirements in effect at time of tentative map submittal. These improvements are subject to the requirements of the city engineer. G.

Other Requirements. All requirements not specifically regulated in this ordinance will be regulated by the city of Brentwood Municipal Code.

H.

Design and Site Plan Review. The design of the homes and improvements shall have the following characteristics:

1.

The park or parks shall be located to serve as a focal point for the residents living in the area.

2.

The developments shall be designed to accommodate and encourage pedestrian circulation throughout the area, to the park, to the open space buffer and to the existing business park.

3.

The streets shall be designed to mimic the old-town concept and include formal street trees placed twentyfive feet on center and old-style street lights. The sidewalk shall be detached by five feet to allow for the placement of the trees.

4.

The residential units shall include elements which copy old-style architectural features. Examples include large front porches, rear set garages, steep pitched roofs and courtyards.

5.

Consideration shall be given to providing an adequate transition between the residential uses and the business park to the west. This transition may include landscape screening, larger landscape setbacks, mounding, masonry walls or similar. The exact type of transition will depend on the type of product and be determined through the tentative map process.

I.

Streets and Traffic. A limited traffic study shall be submitted concurrently with each tentative subdivision map. The study shall identify specific roadway improvements needed to accommodate the traffic expected by that subdivision. These on or off-site improvements shall be a condition of approval of the subdivision. Fairview Parkway shall be developed as a two-lane collector, unless a traffic study (as required by subsection I of this section) indicates that a wider street is necessary.

(Ord. 857 § 2, 2008)

5.

Building Configuration, Orientation.

a.

Village I: include rear yard garages, both side drive and alley accessed. Both configurations provide for building separation while making better use of side yard, whether a hardscape courtyard or extensive landscaped area. The front yard setbacks are reduced to bring the entry/porch and living areas closer to the sidewalks, encouraging interaction with neighbors.

b.

Village II: are to be developed with a combination of front on garages attached to the living unit in the conventional manner with the living unit stepped forward of the garage and rear yard garages with side drive access. No alleys are planned for the Village II lots.

6.

8.

Side drives are a maximum of twelve feet wide from curb cut to parking courtyard where it may widen out. Special paving or a "Hollywood" drive is required for the twelve-foot wide portion of the side drive at a minimum.

Alley accessed garages within Village I are detached from the house. They may be connected by an open trellis or breezeway.

10.

Ancillary Units. Granny flats or carriage homes are allowed over detached garages on alleyways within Village I. A third parking stall (covered and uncovered) shall be provided adjacent to the garage for the granny flat. The area for the parking stall is exclusive of the twenty-foot by twenty-foot or four hundred square foot yard requirement noted under subsection (B)(1)(c), Setbacks. Carriage homes provide a versatile space that can be used by extended family, rented or serve as an at-home studio or office.

11.

Corner Lots. Standards setbacks (subsection (B)(1)(c)) apply for corner lots. The side drive elevation of the unit should face the corner property line whenever possible. The driveway must access the parking court by the side property line with a maximum twelve-foot curb cut and drive. The garage elevation facing the street must be articulated with a window and architectural treatment in a similar manner to the front façade. The area in front of the garage must allow for a minimum of two off-street parking spaces. Within Village II, fifty percent of the corner lots shall incorporate side entry garages.

13.

Architectural Design.

a.

Village I: to ensure a certain amount of variation within the development, a minimum of three unit types, three variations on each unit type and three individual color schemes, and two roofing materials with two roof colors or one material and three colors are required of each village.

b.

Village II: the first one hundred fifty units are to be comprised of four separate and distinct models; three units will utilize the attached garage concept and one model will incorporate the detached garage. The percentage

of detached garage units shall be a minimum of ten percent. Two additional models shall be introduced for the one hundred fifty-first through three hundred eleventh building lot, bringing the total offering to six separate and distinct unit types. These two additional models shall be submitted for review and approval of the planning commission.

c.

Articulation and Massing and Roofs.

i.

Village I: combination of gables, hips and turret roof form will be used. Roof slopes shall be 6:12 or greater for primary roofs. Articulation of the building façade should relate to the roof form of the building. No bubble skylights visible from the street allowed.

ii.

Village II: roof slopes shall be 5:12 or 6:12 for primary roofs. Hip and gable roof forms are acceptable. Some variation in roof form over the garage is encouraged. Bubble skylights shall not be visible from the street. d.

Materials. Horizontal board siding, shingles or a similar material is required for all homes. Materials should be the same for all four façades rather than change on side or rear yard elevations. No plywood siding is

allowed.

e.

Windows. Front elevation windows shall be vertical in proportion, or divided by mullions, or divided into separate lights. Long horizontal sliding windows are strongly discouraged. (See the development plan and related exhibits.)

f.

Fencing. Fencing may be of a different board siding than the homes. Fencing should be painted or stained to match color palette of homes. Side yard fencing will be recessed a minimum of ten feet behind front façade of house where applicable. On corner lots, fencing will only enclose the rear yard on street side and be recessed a minimum of two feet behind the garage façade. Extreme care shall be exercised within Village II with regard to the location of the fence element connecting two adjacent units. It is imperative where one unit is located closer to the street than the adjacent unit that the connecting fence and its side yard element do not extend past the front façade of the more rearward located unit. A detailed fencing plan shall be submitted to the director of community development for review and approval prior to recordation of the final map.

14.

Yard Trees and Landscaping.

a.

Village I: two trees required per lot; one on the side yard property line and the other approximately centered on the lot, each five to seven feet from back of sidewalk. This will form a row of canopy yard trees approximately twenty-two feet six inches on center.

b.

Village II: three trees total required per lot in the tree lawn strip; one the side yard property line and the other approximately equally spaced thirty feet on center.

c.

Yard trees are in addition to street trees which are located in the tree lawn strip at all sixty-foot ROW streets. One yard tree should approximately align across the sidewalk with street trees in the tree lawn strip. 15.

With respect to the architectural design of residences, the owner shall have the right to submit additional designs in the future for review and approval by the planning department, providing the designs conform to the guidelines and regulations herein.

C.

Master Use Permit. Upon application for development of any portion of subarea A or B, the entire area will be master planned and this master plan will be submitted as part of the use permit process (Chapter 17.830) to ensure compliance with these PD standards. Cross access and parking easements will be required for each subarea.

D.

Retail Subarea A—Building Standards.

1.

Floor area ratio (FAR): to be determined through the master use permit process.

2.

Height. Building heights in the retail areas shall not exceed two stories or thirty feet. 3.

Setbacks. Setbacks vary depending on the property line. Where arcades are shown along the street, buildings are to be set within ten feet of the property line with ten-foot arcades. (See the development plan and related exhibits.) The building or arcade must extend to the setback line and adjacent to the future bus

stop location. The walkway under the arcade shall be paved to provide a continuous path to the bus stop. Buildings directly across the street from residential shall be set back a minimum ten feet, maximum fifteen feet from the property line to provide for landscaping. Buildings and the parking lot adjacent to Walnut and Balfour Roads must maintain a ten-foot setback from the property line, for landscaping. The setback between the retail and office uses between subareas A and B should allow for a shared access drive and ten feet of landscaping on each side, approximately twenty-two feet setback on each side of property line. (See the development plan and related exhibits.)

4.

Building Configuration and Pedestrian Access. The development of each retail site should provide for multiple access points from the residential areas for both pedestrians and vehicles. (See the development plan and related exhibits.) Vehicle access from the rotaries is encouraged. A second access is allowed. Pedestrian access is required from those points shown on the illustrative plan. No fence or soundwall is allowed between the residential and retail commercial sites, except screen walls associated with service, loading or garbage.

5.

Entries. Locating entries on the streets creates a "main street" quality which reinforces the pedestrian activity. Primary shop entries must be provided on pedestrian paths (designated by arcade locations on the illustrative plan). Secondary entries will be allowed to face the parking areas, but the arcade entry shall not be service oriented. (See the development plan and related exhibits.)

6.

Architectural Design. The retail buildings shall be compatible in terms of design with the residential uses. This includes roofing materials, colors, sidings, roof pitch, etc. The site planning of the retail buildings necessitates that all four elevations of the retail shops buildings be equally articulated in massing and materials. These façades can be screened through the landscape buffers provided. (See the development plan and related exhibits.)

a.

Materials. It is required that the retail buildings share the material palette of the rest of the development. Colored and split-faced CMU matching the soundwall design, may be used as an accent material. Board siding and similar roofing materials to the residential and office areas shall be provided. Materials must be used consistently on all elevations. Stucco may be used in conjunction with other materials upon design approval by the planning commission, provided that it is not the predominant material. b.

Articulation and Roof Forms. Mansard roofs, high pitched (12:12 and above) are not allowed. A combination of flat, shed, gabled and hipped roofs are allowed. The articulation of the building façade should relate to the roof form of the building. (See the development plan and related exhibits.)

c.

Arcades and Awnings. A continuous arcade is required along those building façades shown on the development plan and related exhibits. This is to provide comfort and protection from heat and rain for pedestrians along primary pedestrian paths. The arcade could be a supported extension of the roof structure. d.

Windows and Display Cases. Windows are required on all primary pedestrian path façades. Secured display cases are allowed in place of windows on rear or secondary elevations. (See the development plan and related exhibits.) Windows and display cases add visual interest for pedestrians as well as act as secondary signage for shops. (See the development plan and related exhibits.)

e.

Individual windows openings, "punched or recessed," are recommended over continuous aluminum store front systems. It is recommended that the window system be supported by a solid stem wall rather than extend to the floor level. (See the development plan and related exhibits.)

f.

Signage. Signs should blend with the architecture of the building and should not overshadow the building character. Signs should be exterior illuminated (internally illuminated signs and back-lit awnings are not permitted). Sign materials should integrate well with the building's materials; plastic signs are discouraged. "Marquee" signage or "pylon" signage along Balfour Road and Walnut Boulevard is acceptable after planning approved. A master signage program, illustrating common theme, materials, size and location must be submitted and approved by the planning commission, through the use permit process.

g.

Parking Lot Design.

i.

In no case shall a parking lot occupy more than thirty-three percent of the internal street's frontage. ii.

An orchard-like tree pattern (gridded at thirty feet to forty feet on center maximum) is required to ensure adequate shading of the paved areas. A minimum of one tree between every three to four parking stalls is required. The tree well will be a minimum of five feet by five feet or twenty-five square feet unless a two-foot diameter tree cage is used (see the development plan and related exhibits for alternative parking lot tree placements). This does not include perimeter landscaping. The extent of parking lot landscaping otherwise required is per Section 17.630.008.

iii.

Landscape hedges at the parking lot perimeter (plus or minus three-foot height) will shield the autos from view without blocking signage. The extent of parking lot landscaping otherwise required is per Section 17.630.008.

iv.

Joint Use Parking. Due to the requirement of common parking and access easements, the overall parking standards identified in Chapter 17.620 may be reduced by fifteen percent for all types of uses. h.

Landscaping and Hardscape Plaza. Hardscape plazas with built-in seating and potential table areas are required at major pedestrian entries to the retail centers.

i.

Screening and Fencing. Screening of trash enclosures should be integrated into the building form with the same material palette, and further screened with landscaping so as not to be visible by pedestrians passing by. Where visual screening is desired it is strongly recommended that hedges or a hedgerow of trees, such as Lombardy poplars be used in conjunction with berms, wood or masonry screen walls.

T.

The rights-of-way for those portions of Fairview and Minnesota Avenues north of Sand Creek Road are established at sixty-four feet and sixty feet, respectively. U.

If either the school, park or linear trail sites are relocated within the SPA "L" area, there can be a transfer of units from the new school, park and trail sites to the planning areas that lost these amenities, as long as the maximum unit count of one thousand one hundred thirty-four units is maintained for the SPA. V.

If either the school, park or trail sites are relocated outside the SPA "L" area, the city would entertain a general plan amendment on the affected planning areas that reflects residential densities comparable to those on abutting properties.

W.

If the school, park or trail sites are relocated, the general plan's density transition policy would still apply. X.

Planning areas not developed to their maximum density shall create a "pool" of units that could be allocated to the remaining planning areas as long as the maximum unit count of one thousand one hundred thirty-four units is maintained for the SPA.

Chapter 17.492 PD-42 (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT NO. 42) ZONE (§ 17.492.001 – § 17.492.008)

The authority, purpose and intent for the adoption of the PD-42 (planned development forty-two) zone are as follows:

A.

Authority. PD-42 zone is adopted pursuant to the authority set forth in Chapter 17.450, Planned Development Zones—General Regulations.

B.

Purpose. The purpose of the PD-42 zone is to permit and regulate the development of the Gregory Ranch planned district, as designated in the city council's planning and zoning ordinances as a mixed-use zone, permitting maximum flexibility in uses in order to accommodate a variety of diverse as well as complementary multifamily residential, office, commercial retail, hotel, restaurant, business, self-storage, and light industrial uses.

C.

Intent. It is intended that in order to achieve the purpose of the PD-42 zone of implementing a cohesive, mixed-use development in conformance with the Brentwood general plan, the zone shall be divided into nine subareas as geographically designated in Section 17.492.008 and as further described below. The primary character of the area is intended to be a mix of multifamily residential, light industrial, and offices to accommodate the dynamic flex-tech market, as well as hotel, restaurant, and ancillary commercial, retail, and self-storage uses related to major thoroughfares.

1.

Subarea A consists of approximately 2.98 gross acres intended for the development of approximately sixtyfive thousand square feet of new technology self-storage to serve both the employment uses being developed in the vicinity, as well as the growing residential uses in the region that require self-storage.

2.

Subarea B consists of approximately one-half gross acre intended for the development of approximately six thousand square feet of future office, convenience retail, and similar compatible uses to serve the needs of the Brentwood community.

3.

Subarea C consists of approximately three gross acres intended for the development of commercial uses typically associated with thoroughfares such as hotels, restaurants, auto service stations, drivein/drivethrough establishments, and the like.

4.

Subarea D consists of approximately ten gross acres intended for the development of a multifamily, residential community of a maximum of one hundred twenty units.

5.

Subarea E consists of approximately 1.1 acres intended for the development of future office, leasing office, commercial service, convenience retail, and similar compatible uses to serve the needs of the adjacent multifamily-community as well as the needs of the surrounding employment area.

6.

Subarea F consists of approximately 8.75 gross acres intended for the development of an approximately one hundred thousand square foot industrial warehouse, office, flex-space, and business center to serve the untapped needs of the Brentwood community. This business center will provide for the development of

industrial, office, and flex-space for potential users and user owners that would provide employment and services to the community.

7.

Subarea G consists of approximately 3.17 gross acres with uses to be determined by subsequent planned development amendment.

8.

Subarea H consists of approximately 74.77 gross acres with uses to be determined by subsequent planned development amendment.

9.

Subarea I consists of approximately 22.2 gross acres with uses to be determined by subsequent planned development amendment.

Chapter 17.505 PD-55 (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT FIFTY-FIVE) ZONE (§ 17.505.001 – § 17.505.010)

The authority, purpose and intent for the adoption of the PD-55 zone are as follows:

A.

Authority. PD-55 is adopted pursuant to the authority set forth in Chapter 17.450, Planned Development Zones—General Regulations.

B.

Purpose. The purpose of the PD-55 zone is to permit and regulate the phased development of a mix of uses consistent with the general plan on the approximately sixty-one gross acres encompassed by the zone. The general plan identifies the PD-55 zone within planned development. PD-55 is bounded by a single-family home subdivision on the north, a single-family home subdivision on the east, mixed-use commercial and medium density residential on the south, and Brentwood Boulevard on the west. Planned development policies are intended to mirror policies and the mixed land uses described in the PD-55 zone for a range of uses including retail commercial businesses, professional office uses, limited light industrial uses, and singlefamily residential uses. Land use flexibility for this large in-fill parcel is warranted due to its strategic location adjacent to two arterial roadways including Brentwood Boulevard and Sand Creek Road. C.

Intent. To achieve the foregoing purpose, the PD-55 zone is divided into six subareas; the subareas as shown on the map in Section 17.505.009. Several subareas include internal land use flexibility per the Zoning Matrix in Section 17.505.008 and shall be developed as generally described below:

1.

Subarea 1 consists of the southwestern approximately 5.94 acres and is intended for the development of commercial uses that meet the needs of Brentwood and the region.

2.

Subarea 2 consists of the central western approximately 2.63 acres north of Sand Creek Road, and is intended for the development of commercial uses that meet the needs of Brentwood and the region.

3.

Subarea 3 consists of approximately 31.13 acres, north of Sand Creek Road, and is intended for the development of single-family detached residential uses that are generally compatible with adjacent residential development. Residential lots adjacent to the northern boundary of Subarea 3 are intended to meet a minimum four thousand square foot lot size, which is typical of the adjacent development to the north. The balance of Subarea 3 consists of small-lot single-family detached residential development.

4.

Subarea 4 consists of the eastern approximately 3.81 acres located on the north side of Sand Creek Road. Subarea 4 is established to serve primarily as a usable park, with a portion comprised of landscape and water quality basin, and as a buffer to existing residential subdivisions to the north and east. Development within Subarea 4 is intended to provide a north-south pedestrian link.

5.

Subarea 5 consists of the eastern approximately 2.23 acres located on the south side of Sand Creek Road. Subarea 5 is established to serve primarily as a usable park, with a portion comprised of landscape and water quality basin, and as a buffer to existing residential subdivisions to the south and east. Development within Subarea 5 is intended to provide a north-south pedestrian link.

6.

Subarea 6 consists of the central approximately 14.79 acres south of Sand Creek Road and is intended for single-family detached residential uses. Residential lots adjacent to the southern boundary of Subarea 6 are intended to meet a minimum four thousand square foot lot size, which is typical of the adjacent development to the south. The balance of Subarea 6 consists of small-lot single-family detached residential development.

Each of Subareas 1 through 6 may be developed in phases.

Chapter 17.514 PD-64 (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT SIXTY-FOUR) ZONE (§ 17.514.001 – § 17.514.010)

The authority, purpose and intent for the adoption of the PD-64 (planned development sixty-four) zone are as follows:

A.

Authority. PD-64 is adopted pursuant to the authority set forth in Chapter 17.450, Planned Development Zones—General Regulations, of this code.

B.

Purpose. The purpose of the PD-64 zone is to permit and regulate the orderly development of the area shown on the development plan and related exhibits in accordance with the Brentwood general plan for up to one thousand one hundred active adult single-family residential units; up to one hundred fifty executive singlefamily residential units; a recreation center; a winery with amphitheater and associated uses; a village center with civic, commercial, office, hotel lodging (B&B) senior and other multifamily residential units; a water tank and pump stations; two water quality/detention basins; and associated parks, open space and landscape parcels. In addition, this PD includes three additional areas (the PG&E site, the John Marsh House State Park site, and a future community college site) that will be defined as applicable at a later date when projects are developed. The PD-64 area then is divided into six subareas as shown on the development plan and related exhibits. The boundaries of the PD-64 zoning district and its subareas are as shown on the map in Section 17.514.010.

C.

Intent. The zoning district is intended to describe the project "The Vineyards at Marsh Creek" which will provide private distinguished neighborhoods among an agriculturally-themed landscape of vineyards and olive groves. The overall architectural style will be Tuscan, French Spanish—Mediterranean, with its historical roots in the villas and villages of the inland Coastal Spain, the Balearic Islands and the French and Italian Mediterranean regions of Provence and Tuscany. This palette will expand to include other wine regions such as Bordeaux and Rhone areas of France as well as the more California Craftsman palette of our own Napa Valley in the Custom Estate home area. The residential components include single-story active adult singlefamily homes with a central recreation center. The active adult neighborhoods will be of a density similar to the existing Summerset Development north of the site, including golf cart accessibility even though they do not back onto a golf course. In addition, there will be up to two private executive single-family neighborhoods located in close proximity to the winery and open space. The executive homes architectural style will have a more craftsman interpretation of the Mediterranean style than that of the active adult area. The winery is intended to become a distinguishing focal point for the city as a whole, and the village center is intended to serve the needs of the surrounding community, and not compete with downtown commercial activities. All uses will be in conformance with the adopted general plan with amendments. (Ord. 857 § 2, 2008)

Construction Standards for Active Adult and Executive Housing.

1.

Variety in Building Mass. Variety in building mass shall be accomplished by:

a.

Inclusion in the floor plans available for purchase, varying front façade design, such as side-entry garages and varying the entryway location and design;

b.

Avoidance of use of a single façade design more than twice in any group of contiguous homes;

c.

Inclusion of floor plan purchase-options, such as additional golf cart garage space, which alters the visual mass of a floor plan;

d.

Executive single-family homes that back up onto Fairview shall have one story profiles. This is defined by having a minimum of a five-foot horizontal setback between the first and second floors, having a single story component for at least eighty percent of the length of the rear elevation. See the development plan and related exhibits for lot locations and example profiles.

e.

At the time site design and development review of multiple floor plans, incorporating design variations such as those described above, shall be submitted.

E.

Additional Residential Design Items.

1.

Design Review. Design review shall be required as follows:

a.

Residential Buildings. Design and site development review shall be required pursuant to Chapter 17.820. The architectural style has a palette of cut and rustic stone with hues of rose, buff and ochre, ornamental carved or cast stone, terra cotta colored clay or concrete roof tile, awning shutters, detailed ironwork and plants in terra cotta pots. Residential units have been organized for "street presence" with several models possessing gathering and semi-private terraces on the street side of the property. Identifying features may consist of:

i.

Roofs are typically "S" and barrel concrete or clay tiles at a low pitch; ii.

Doors and windows are generally recessed into thick walls; iii.

Accents may include tile surround, metal railings, shutters and awnings; iv.

Use of columns, window and door surrounds.

b.

Landscaping, Fencing and Walls. Landscaping, fencing and walls in areas adjoining a public or private street shall conform to the plans approved by the planning commission. Individual lot landscaping includes a lawn area and a palette of groundcovers and smaller trees in the front and side yards with a mix of shrubs, flowering groundcovers and grasses to provide moderate privacy screening and seasonal interest. Where lot size permits, gardens will be anchored by larger shade trees. Trellises or patio trees that shade courtyards off of living spaces are encouraged. Trellises and walls may be covered with climbing landscaping. Walls are generally stucco, smooth and in earth tone colors. Gatehouses will reflect the residential architecture and incorporate community monumentation.

c.

Public and Common Open Space. As part of the aesthetic productive landscape, grapes and olives will be cultivated wherever possible. In larger open-space production areas, grapes will be grown in rows spaced to allow mechanical harvesting. However, in some areas where aesthetics are equally important such as the rows flanking Fairview Avenue, the rows may have to be spaced more tightly and thus harvested by hand. Olive orchards can be located on slopes that are steeper than three to one. Harvest will be by hand or mechanical means, depending on orchard access.

Since the agricultural components are part of a true working landscape, access within the vineyards and orchards will be restricted to those who are growing the grapes and olives. Limited pedestrian and service vehicular access only will be allowed where possible in designated areas.

d.

Recreation Facilities and Conditional Use Permit Uses. Design and site development review approval by the planning commission pursuant to Chapter 17.820 shall be required for the following:

i.

Recreation center buildings and accompanying outdoor facilities such as pools;

(a)

Design elements may include stone accents and a distinguishing tower. Large view oriented spaces will be designed as lightly scaled trellis or outdoor loggia elements (though glass enclosed) attached to the more traditional mass of this architectural character.

ii.

Buildings for which approval of a conditional use permit by the planning commission is required. F.

Roadway Items.

1.

Fairview Avenue. Public one hundred forty-foot right-of-way, including two to four travel lanes, turn lanes at intersections, bike lanes, with no parking allowed. Landscaping to allow vineyards and olive groves in addition to traditional street trees and groundcover. Public eight-foot multi use path located on each side of Fairview Avenue.

2.

Local Spine Streets. Private thirty-six-foot curb-to-curb, including two travel lanes and on-street parking allowed. One side only five-feet of traditional landscaping between a separated four-foot sidewalk and the curb. Ten-foot PUE, that overlaps the right-of-way by six-inches located each side of the roadway.

3.

Local Streets. Private thirty-six-foot curb-to-curb, including two travel lanes and on-street parking allowed. One side only four and one-half-foot curb adjacent sidewalk. Ten-foot PUE, that overlaps the right-of-way by six-inches located each side of the roadway.

2.

Design Standards. The site is characterized as a sloping site overlooking the historic John Marsh Home and the new Fairview Avenue, intended for a winery. The winery complex may be a collection of major buildings plus several secondary buildings and set in the midst of vineyards and olive trees. The architecture can vary

from California Mission Style to the Vineyards at Marsh Creek Mediterranean style, featuring tiled roofs and arched arcades. A turf amphitheater will provide a venue for concerts.

Winery buildings for production, storage and shipping may total over eighty thousand square feet. A public events building provides for conferences, weddings, tasting events and retail sales. Picnicking areas may be included in the landscaping and winery tours may be offered.

The vineyards and landscaping may extend into the public rights-of-way and common spaces between new residential areas. Pedestrian and golf cart paths may link the residential areas to the winery. Parking for concerts (more than three hundred spaces) and employees/visitors (more than eighty spaces) should be onsite or planned in a shared parking arrangement with nearby uses (i.e., village center, community college, etc.).

The winery site may provide a site for cultural, social and entertainment events for the community. The vineyards and winery operation represent not only a cultural amenity in the community, but also an appropriate, credible link to the agricultural heritage of the city of Brentwood.

This theme is derived from traditional Tuscan building forms and materials (and contemporized through the addition of metal canopies, strong geometric detailing, offset wall plans, and varied building coloration). Strong correlation between exterior façades and sidewalk surfaces and planting is integral to the success of the design theme.

Individual tenants' buildings are encouraged to use originality and creativity in interpreting the preferred vocabulary and criteria in these guidelines. The intent is not to create mirror image buildings. However, buildings shall be compatible in massing, form, color, and materials to achieve a sense of architectural continuity.

In all cases, these guidelines stress the importance of visually identifying and unifying the community, as well as providing reinforcement for positive historic characteristics."

This theme is derived from traditional Tuscan building forms and materials (and contemporized through the addition of metal canopies, strong geometric detailing, offset wall plans, and varied building coloration).

Strong correlation between exterior façades and sidewalk surfaces and planting is integral to the success of the design theme.

Individual tenants' buildings are encouraged to use originality and creativity in interpreting the preferred vocabulary and criteria in these guidelines. The intent is not to create mirror image buildings. However, buildings shall be compatible in massing, form, color, and materials to achieve a sense of architectural continuity.

In all cases, these guidelines stress the importance of visually identifying and unifying the community, as well as providing reinforcement for positive historic characteristics."

When the site of the use can be annexed to an off-street parking assessment district and upon payment to the district of the costs of the required off-street parking spaces; C.

By payment of the costs of the required off-street parking spaces into a trust fund to be administered by the city for the provisions of future off-street parking facilities;

D.

Where costs of required off-street parking are to be paid to the city or assessment district such costs will be based on the fair market value of the land on which the new use is to be located, the amount of land necessary to provide the required off-street parking, and the current costs of paving and other necessary improvements as determined by the city.

(Ord. 408, 1987)

All required off-street parking and loading facilities shall be located on the same site on which is located the use they serve except as follows:

A.

In the case of any new use, building or structure where it is found that due to parcel size, location or other circumstances the required off-street parking cannot or should not be provided on the site, the required offstreet parking may be located on another site located within three hundred feet of the use which site may be in the same or different ownership or in the cooperative ownership.

B.

Where any required off-street parking is located off-site the parking requirements will be considered to be met only through the execution of an agreement to be recorded in the offices of the county recorder as a covenant running with the land for the benefit of the city providing that the owner or owners and their heirs, assigns or successors in interest will continue to maintain such parking facilities for the exclusive benefit of the use as long as the building or use they are intended to serve is maintained.

C.

When the off-street parking and loading requirements for the use are satisfied by use of the in-lieu provision of Section 17.620.019.

3.

Encouraging the retention of significant existing vegetation to the extent feasible;

4.

Reducing erosion and water runoff;

5.

Conserving energy;

6.

Preserving and promoting urban wildlife habitats;

7.

Minimizing impacts of noise, light and glare.

Landscaping shall be required within all yards, off-street parking lots and open land uses that are visible to and/or accessible to the public.

B.

Shade trees shall be required within required landscaping, off-street parking lots and open land uses.

C.

Screening shall be required as a buffer between activities having a different intensity of use and between certain zoning districts so as to mitigate the impacts of noise, light and glare and human activity.

D.

All ornamental uses of water in the common areas of a development project, such as ponds, lakes and fountains shall be supplied, operated and maintained with alternative sources of water if they are available. E.

Exceptions to the specific requirements may be granted on a case-by-case basis due to either unusual site conditions or other extenuating circumstances.

For the purposes of this chapter, unless otherwise apparent from the context, certain works and phrases used in this chapter are defined as follows:

"Landscaping"

means vegetative plantings such as grass, trees, shrubs and vines and related improvements such as pools, walkways, rock work and sculpture which is of a design that will beautify and enhance a property and control erosion and reduce glare.

"Screening"

means a masonry wall, board fence, screened chain link fence, hedge, berm or vegetative planting or combination thereof which is of a design that will provide a visual and audible barrier between land uses having different intensities of use.

"Shade tree"

means trees of a variety approved by the city that will, under ordinary circumstances and growing conditions, provide shade upon reaching maturity.

"Automatic controller"

means a mechanical or solid state timer, capable of operating valve stations to set the days and length of time of a water application.

"Check valve"

means a valve located under a sprinkler head to hold water in the system so it minimizes drainage from the lower elevation sprinkler heads.

"Conversion factor (0.62)"

means a number that converts the estimated total water use from acresinches per acre per year to gallons per square foot per year. The conversion factor is calculated as follows:

(325,851 gallons/43,560 square feet)/12 inches = (0.62)

325,851 gallons = one acre foot

43,560 square feet = one acre

12 inches = one foot

To convert gallons per year to one hundred cubic feet per year, another common billing unit for water, divide gallons per year by seven hundred forty-eight. (Seven hundred forty-eight gallons equal one hundred cubic feet.)

"Estimated total water use"

means the annual total amount of water estimated to be needed to keep the plants in the landscaped area

healthy. It is based upon such factors as the local evapotranspiration rate, the size of the landscaped area, the type of plants, and the efficiency of the irrigation system.

"Evapotranspiration"

means the quantity of water evaporated from adjacent soil surfaces and transpired by plants during a specific time.

"Flowrate"

means a portion of the landscaped area having plants with similar water needs that are served by a valve or set of valves with the same schedule. A hydrozone may be irrigated or nonirrigated. For example, a naturalized area planted with native vegetation that will not need supplemental irrigation once established is a nonirrigated hydrozone.

"Hydrozone"

means a portion of the landscaped area having plants with similar water needs that are served by a valve or set of valves with the same schedule. A hydrozone may be irrigated or nonirrigated. For example, a

naturalized area planted with native vegetation that will not need supplemental irrigation once established is a nonirrigated hydrozone.

"Irrigation efciency"

means the measurement of the amount of water beneficially used divided by the amount of water applied. Irrigation efficiency is derived from measurements and estimates of irrigation system characteristics and management practices. For the purpose of this chapter the following factors shall be used:

Spray heads (pop-up or riser) 0.60
Rotor or impact heads 0.70
Bubbler 0.70
Drip 0.76

"Landscape irrigation audit"

means a process to perform site inspections, evaluate irrigation systems and develop efficient irrigation schedules.

"Landscaped area"

means the entire parcel less the building(s) footprint, driveways, nonirrigated portions of the parking lots, hardscapes such as decks and patios and other nonporous areas. Water features are included in the calculation of the landscaped area. Areas dedicated to edible plants, such as orchards or vegetable gardens, are not included.

"Mulch"

means any material such as leaves, bark, straw or other materials left loose and applied to the soil surface to reduce evaporation.

"Nonpotable water"

means water unfit for human consumption, such as treated or recycled waste water, untreated irrigation water or untreated groundwater.

"Overspray"

means the water which is delivered beyond the landscaped area, wetting pavements, walks, structures or other nonlandscaped areas.

"Plant factor"

means a factor that when multiplied by reference evapotranspiration, estimates the amount of water used by plants. For purposes of this chapter, use the following plant factors:

Low water using: 0.1—0.3
Medium water using: 0.4—0.6
High water using: 0.7—0.9

These plant factors are based on the Water Use Classification of Landscape Species Project (WUCOLS). The project list is intended solely as a guide to help landscape professionals identify irrigation water needs of landscape species. It is not intended to be used as a required, mandatory, approved or master list. The WUCOLS Project is available from the California Department of Water Resources or from the Contra Costa water district.

"Reference evapotranspiration" or "ETo"

means a standard measurement of environmental parameters which affect the water use of plants. ETo is given in inches per day, month or year and is an estimate of the evapotranspiration of a large field of four-to seven-inch tall, cool season grasses that is well watered. Reference evapotranspiration is used as the basis of determining the estimated total water use so that regional differences in climate can be accommodated. (For historical ETo rates see Exhibit B attached to the ordinance codified in this chapter.) "Runoff"

means water which is not absorbed by the soil or landscape to which it is applied and flows from the area. For example, runoff may result from water that is applied at too great a rate (application rate exceeds infiltration rate) or when there is a severe slope.

"Soil composition"

means the classification of soil based on the percentage of sand, silt and clay in the soil. "Sprinkler"

means a device which sprays water through a nozzle.

"Station"

means an area served by one valve or by a set of valves that operate simultaneously. "Turf"

means a surface layer of earth containing mowed grass and its roots. This can be either a cool season or warm season grass. For example, Red Fescue and Tall Fescue are cool season grasses; Bermuda grass, Kikuyu grass, St. Augustine, Zoysia grass, and Buffalo grass are warm season grasses. "Valve"

means a device used to control the flow of water in the irrigation system. (Ord. 893 § 2, 2011) Landscaping in conformance with Section 17.630.008 shall be required as follows:

C.

Regulatory Scope. This chapter regulates signs, as defined herein, which are within the legal corporate limits of the city, but not on city property, as defined herein, or within the DT (downtown) zone. Signs on city property are controlled by Chapter 17.645. Signs on property located within the DT (downtown) zone are regulated by Chapter 17.280.

D.

Purpose and Intent. The purpose of this chapter is to create and enforce a comprehensive system for the reasonable regulation of signs within the city. By adopting this chapter, the city intends to balance many competing interests, which include, but are not limited to, the following:

1.

To allow exercise of the free speech right by the display of a sign.

2.

To protect and enhance the character of residential neighborhoods and business areas, open views and vistas.

3.

To protect and enhance property values.

4.

To provide a reasonable and comprehensive system of sign controls.

5.

To serve the city's aesthetic interest by minimizing visual clutter while accommodating reasonable signage as a major and necessary form of communication.

6.

To state rules for fair treatment of all sign users.

To promote public safety by reducing driver distraction while providing that official traffic regulation devices

be easily visible and free from nearby visual obstructions such as blinking signs, and by prohibiting or limiting signs that constitute a traffic hazard or obstruct the visibility of motorists, bicyclists or pedestrians.

8.

To reduce visual clutter by prohibiting the installation of new billboards, oversized signs, roof signs, animated signs and other types of signage.

(Ord. 927 § 2, 2014)

Signs, as defined herein, may be displayed within the city only in compliance with this chapter and the rules stated herein.

(Ord. 927 § 2, 2014)

A.

Permit Generally Required. All signs shall conform to the standards set forth in this chapter and unless exempted from the permit requirement shall be installed or displayed only pursuant to a sign permit and any other applicable permits and approvals.

B.

Maintenance. All signs and their immediate surroundings shall be maintained by the owner and/or occupant of the premises in a clean, sanitary and inoffensive condition and free and clean of all obnoxious substances, rubbish and weeds.

C.

Discretionary Approvals. Whenever a sign or a proposed sign is subject to any discretionary review, permit, or approval, such discretion may be exercised only as to the compatibility of the sign with its location, and other structural, architectural and location factors. Discretion may not be exercised as to the artistic merit of the proposed sign or the message itself so long as such message is not excluded from First Amendment (U.S. Constitution) protection under relevant court decisions.

D.

Compatibility Factors. In determining compatibility of a sign with its surrounding environment, the following criteria may be considered:

1.

Style or character of existing improvements upon the site and properties adjacent to the site.

2.

Visual elements such as construction materials, design details, and the number and spacing of signs in the area.

3.

The sign's height, design, and location in relation to its proposed location and use.

4.

The sign's spatial and visual relationship with other nearby signs, other elements of street and site furniture and with adjacent structures.

5.

Form, proportion, scale, materials, surface treatment, and overall sign size.

6.

Potential effect of the proposed sign on driver and pedestrian safety.

7.

Potential blocking of view (whole or partial) of a structure or façade or public view of historical or architectural significance.

Potential obstruction of views of users of adjacent buildings to side yards, front yards, open space, or parks.

9.

Potential negative impact on visual quality of public spaces, including, but not limited to, recreation facilities, public squares, plazas, courtyards and the like.

10.

Whether the sign structure will impose an aesthetically foreign or inharmonious element into the existing skyline or local viewscape.

E.

Administrative Interpretations. All interpretations of this chapter are to be exercised in light of the message neutrality and message substitution policies. Where a particular type of sign is proposed, and the type is neither expressly allowed nor prohibited by this chapter, or whenever a sign does not qualify as a "structure" as defined in the Building Code, as adopted by the city of Brentwood, then the planning commission or director, as applicable, shall approve, conditionally approve or disapprove the application based on the most similar sign type, using physical and structural similarity, that is expressly regulated by this chapter.

F.

Message Neutrality. It is the city's policy and intent to regulate signs in a manner consistent with the U.S. and California constitutions, which is content neutral as to non-commercial speech and does not favor commercial speech over non-commercial speech.

G.

Message Substitution. Subject to the property owner's consent, a non-commercial message of any category or content may be substituted, in whole or in part, for any allowed commercial message or any noncommercial message, provided that the sign structure or mounting device is legal without consideration of message content. Such substitution of message may be made without any additional approval or permitting. The purpose of this provision is to prevent any favoring of commercial speech over non-commercial speech, or favoring of any particular non-commercial message over any other non-commercial message. Message substitution is a continuing right which may be exercised any number of times. This provision does not:

Create a right to increase the total amount of sign area on a site.

Create a right to substitute an off-site commercial message in place of an on-site commercial message or in place of a non-commercial message.

3.

Affect the requirement that a sign structure or mounting device must be properly permitted.

4.

Authorize changing the physical method of image presentation (such as digital or neon) display without a permit.

H.

Billboard Policy. New billboards, as defined herein, are prohibited. It is a fundamental land use policy of the city to completely prohibit the construction, erection or use of any and all billboards, other than those which legally exist in the city, or for which a valid permit has been issued and has not expired, as of the date on which this chapter, or when a prior version of this chapter containing a provision to the same effect, was adopted. In adopting this chapter, the city council affirmatively declares that it would have adopted this policy even if it were the only provision in this chapter. The city council intends for this billboard policy to be severable and separately enforceable even if other provision(s) of this chapter may be declared, by a court of

competent jurisdiction, to be unconstitutional, invalid or unenforceable. This prohibition does not apply to agreements to relocate presently existing legal billboards as encouraged by State law including, but not limited to, Business and Professional Code Section 5412, as that section may be amended from time to time.

Note: Prior Ordinance History: Ords. 408 and 597.

A.

Title. The provisions of Chapter 17.680 shall be known as the "Oil and Gas Production Regulations" of this title.

B.

Purpose. The purpose of the "oil and gas production regulations" is to establish reasonable and uniform limitations, safeguards and controls for the present operation of and future drilling for and production of oil, gas, and other hydrocarbon substances within the city so that such activities may be conducted in harmony with other uses of land within the city, thus protecting the people of the city in the enjoyment and use of their property and providing for their comfort, health, safety and general welfare. C.

The council hereby finds and determines that uncontrolled oil, gas, and other hydrocarbon substance exploration, development, and production uses would be detrimental to the general welfare and public

peace, health, safety, comfort, convenience, and prosperity of the citizens and residents of the city. Therefore, except as otherwise provided in this chapter, including compliance with all of the limitations and regulations on operations set forth in Section 17.680.004, no person shall engage in oil, gas, or other hydrocarbon substance exploration, development, and production activities from any location within the city. Notwithstanding any other provision of this code, oil and gas exploration, development, and production uses may be permitted or permitted subject to approval of a conditional use permit in a particular district only when oil and gas exploration, development, and production uses are expressly listed as permitted or conditionally permitted uses in that specific district.

(Ord. 1067, 2/27/2024)

A.

Those definitions provided in Public Resource Code (PRC) Section 3000 et seq., relating to oil and gas exploration and production shall apply to this chapter and are adopted herein by reference. In addition to those definitions in the PRC, the following shall apply:

All terminology used in this chapter, not defined below, shall be in conformance with applicable publications of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) or its successor body.

"A-weighted sound level"

means the sound level in decibels as measured on a sound level meter using the A-weighting network. The level so read is designated dB(A) or dBA.

"Ambient noise level"

means the all-encompassing noise level associated with a given environment, being a composite of sounds from all sources, excluding the alleged offensive noise, at the location and approximate time at which a comparison with the alleged offensive noise is to be made.

"Decibel"

means a unit for measuring the amplitude of a sound, equal to twenty times the logarithm to the base ten of the ratio of the pressure of the sound measured to the reference pressure, which is twenty microPascals. "Emergency work"

means any work performed for the purpose of preventing or alleviating the physical trauma or property damage threatened or caused by an emergency.

"Equivalent sound level, Leq (dBA)"

means the level of a steady sound which, in a stated time period and at a stated location, has the same A- weighted sound energy as the time-varying sound. Mathematically, Leq is determined as follows:

==> picture [329 x 63] intentionally omitted <==

(REF EPA "—LEVELS—," 550/9-74-004, March, 1974.)

The Leq can be estimated from direct observations of a hand held sound level meter with the following equation:

B.

Minimum Production Site Size. All production sites shall be minimum of three acres in size in order to accommodate consolidation of drill site, equipment, soundproofing, landscaping, circulation, and allow for

reuse of the property at such time as the site is no longer utilized for drilling operations, unless a smaller site is approved by the planning commission through the conditional use permit procedure after careful consideration and the planning commission determines that a smaller site can accommodate all equipment, landscaping, etc., and is of adequate size for reuse.

C.

Access Roads and Production Site. All private roads used for access to the production site and the production site itself shall be surfaced with a permanent or semi-permanent surface such as rock or gravel and maintained to prevent dust or mud.

D.

Sumps or Ponds. All sumps, sump pits, ponds or similar devices such as portable tanks constructed onsite for the purpose of holding waste material shall be lined to prevent such waste material from penetrating into the soil. Furthermore, when such sump, pit or pond is no longer needed, it shall be excavated of all foreign materials and filled with compacted earth to the level of the surrounding terrain.

E.

Fencing. All sumps, pits, excavations and production sites shall be enclosed with a fence, the type of fencing and height to be determined by the planning commission at the time of consideration of the conditional use permit. The fencing required by the planning commission shall be at least as protective of the environment as that required in 14 Cal. Code of Regulations Section 1778.

F.

Abandonment of Site. At such time as the oil or gas drilling or production site is abandoned, the responsible party shall abandon the site in accordance with CalGEM regulations for urban areas and all other applicable regulations. Furthermore, the drill or production site and all access roads shall be restored to their original condition or as nearly as practicable unless approved otherwise by CalGEM and the planning director of the city upon receipt of a written request by the property owner. The responsible party shall furnish the city with a copy of the CalGEM approval showing compliance with all abandonment proceedings under state law.

G.

Nonproducing Well. Whenever the cost of production exceeds the revenue produced by an oil or gas well or whenever a well is shut down for a period of ninety consecutive days or more, it shall be considered a nonproducing well. When a well is determined to be nonproducing or is shut down for ninety consecutive days or more, the operator shall report to the city the status of such a well.

The operator shall then have ninety days to conduct an engineering evaluation to determine the economic viability of continuing production operations. If it is determined that the well is no longer economically viable, the well shall be abandoned in conformance with Section 17.680.004(F).

The operator shall submit, upon request, reports to the city on each well reflecting the cost/revenue ratio of each well in order to determine if the well is nonproducing.

H.

Site Development. At the time of application for a conditional use permit to all drilling and production, the applicant shall submit a plan showing relationship to existing land use, ultimate land use if different, and shall indicate proposed mitigation measures to all anticipated impacts, including, but not limited to, noise, light or glare, odor, traffic, aesthetics, etc. Furthermore, the application shall include a plan for the ultimate reuse of the drilling or production site and how the ultimate use of the site will relate to adjacent uses. I.

All oil or gas production sites shall be adequately screened from adjoining properties and public rights-of-way, with the specific type of screening and landscaping to be determined by the planning commission at the time of consideration of the conditional use permit.

J.

Well Location. No new well, storage tank, or production facility shall be located within three thousand two hundred feet of any sensitive receptors.

K.

Soundproofing. If drilling or redrilling operations are located within one thousand feet of an occupied building, noise sources associated with the operation shall be enclosed with soundproofing sufficient to ensure that expected noise levels do not exceed the noise limits contained in this chapter. Permittee shall install every device in the nature of exhaust mufflers and other equipment for the elimination of noise, obtainable and practicable for that purpose, on all operating machinery and equipment and on the well in all instances where objectionable noises might otherwise exist. Soundproofing shall be installed prior to commencement of operations and shall include but not be limited to the following:

1.

Any well which is to be drilled or redrilled, and which is within five hundred feet of an occupied building, shall have all parts of a derrick above the derrick floor, including the elevated portion used as a hoist, enclosed with fire resistive soundproofing blanket or panel material. Such soundproofing shall comply with accepted American Petroleum Institute standards and shall be subject to fire department regulations. All doors shall be closed during drilling, except for ingress and egress and necessary logging, testing and well completion operations. Alternative materials or methods of noise abatement may be used, such as electric power for drilling, provided such alternative is approved by the planning commission. The commission may approve any such alternative if they find that the proposed material and/or method have equal soundproofing properties and fire resistive qualities to being enclosed as stated above. Any alternative may require the submission of evidence by the permittee to substantiate any claims that may be made regarding the use of such alternatives. The planning commission may waive these soundproofing requirements if they find them unnecessary.

2.

Any well which is to be drilled or redrilled, and which is within five hundred one feet to one thousand feet of any occupied building, shall be enclosed by a plywood fence with fire resistive sound insulating material on the interior of the fence. The fence shall specifically enclose all generators and the drill rig itself, to a height of twenty feet from grade. Alternative materials or methods of noise abatement may be used, such as earthen berms, other sound insulating materials, or other methods proposed by applicant, or electric power for drilling, provided such alternative is approved by the planning commission. The commission may approve any such alternative if they find that the proposed material and/or method have equal soundproofing properties and fire resistive qualities to being enclosed as stated above. Any alternative may require the submission of evidence by the permittee to substantiate any claims that may be made regarding the use of such alternatives. The planning commission may waive these soundproofing requirements if they find them unnecessary.

L.

Signs. All oil/gas facilities shall have a legible, permanent, prominently displayed and maintained metal sign no less than two square feet in area containing the following: name of the drilling contractor, name of the owner or operator, twenty-four-hour emergency phone number, lease name and name and number of the well. If the operator changes, it will be the new operator's responsibility to replace the sign within thirty days after the change.

M.

Derricks. All derricks and masts shall be consistent with California Division of Industrial Safety and OSHA standards, be at least equivalent to the standards and specifications of the American Petroleum Institute

(API), and meet the following standards:

1.

All derricks or masts, standard or portable, used for drilling, redrilling, rework, production or servicing, within two hundred feet of a public right-of-way or building, shall have derrick crown(s) shrouded to prevent oil and water spraying into the air.

2.

All derricks and masts hereafter erected for drilling, redrilling or rework shall be removed within thirty days after completion of the work unless otherwise ordered by the director of CalGEM.

N.

Permittee shall immediately remove the derrick and all other structures not required in the event gas only be produced from the well and erect a suitable and sightly structure over the well of the most modern and approved design for the purpose, using only such space for the same as is necessary, and also shall fill all holes and excavations, save the well, and restore all surfaces to their original condition.

O.

Storage Tanks/Production Equipment.

1.

Unless otherwise permitted by the planning commission, the total capacity of oil storage facilities shall not exceed two thousand barrels per well, and no tank shall exceed one thousand barrels capacity. Tanks shall be constructed and maintained to be vapor tight.

2.

Each oil, gas separator shall be equipped with both a regulation pressure-relief safety valve and a bursting head.

3.

No storage tank shall be erected closer than fifty feet from any building, nor shall any building be erected within fifty feet of any storage tank. The city may permit this distance separation to be reduced for low occupancy industrial or warehouse buildings, subject to additional or special safety of fire systems requirements which may be approved and imposed by the fire district. These distance provisions shall not apply to any tank or related facility constructed prior to 1998.

4.

All tanks and attached fixtures shall be constructed and maintained in accordance with American Petroleum Institute, OSHA, California Division of Industrial Safety, CalGEM, National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and EPA standards.

5.

Tanks shall rest directly on the ground or on foundations or supports of gravel, concrete, masonry, piling or steel. Tank foundations shall be elevated, level and larger in diameter than the tank itself. Exposed piling or steel tank supports shall be protected by fire resistive materials to provide a fire resistance rating of not less than two hours. Tank supports and connections shall be designed and installed to resist damage as a result of seismic activity.

6.

No tank for storage of any flammable liquid shall be located closer than three feet to any other such tank. 7.

New tanks used for storage of crude petroleum and other flammables shall be diked or provided with diversion walls and catchment basins, or combinations thereof, to meet the requirements of CalGEM and NFPA. The volumetric capacity of a diked area shall not be less than capacity necessary to hold the full volume of the largest tank below the height of the dike.

Dike walls shall be of concrete, solid masonry or earth designed and maintained to be liquid tight and to withstand a full hydrostatic head, except that all dikes in residential zones shall be solid masonry or poured in place concrete. Asphaltic surfacing shall be required on all earthen dikes. Surfacing shall be impervious and prevent leaching through pavement.

9.

All tank piping, valves, fittings and connections including normal and emergency relief venting, shall be installed and maintained in accordance with current API standards.

10.

All production equipment shall be kept painted in neutral, earthtone colors and maintained at all times. (Ord. 1067, 2/27/2024)

A.

Any noise level measurements made pursuant to the provisions of this chapter shall be performed using a sound level meter as defined in Section 17.680.002 and shall conform to methods prescribed by ANSI or its successor. Calibration of the measurement equipment, utilizing an acoustic calibrator, shall be performed immediately prior to recording any noise data.

B.

The location selected for measuring exterior noise levels shall be at a point within the property line of the receiver's location. Where feasible the microphone shall be at a height of three to five feet above ground level and shall be at least ten feet from walls or similar reflecting surfaces. C.

A microphone windscreen shall be utilized for all outdoor measurements.

D.

Where possible, sound level measurements shall be conducted during fair to dry weather conditions with average wind velocities of less than ten miles per hour. In all cases weather information shall be documented during the sound survey interval. Items to report shall include but are not limited to wind velocity and direction, dry and wet bulb temperature (degree in Fahrenheit), and relative humidity (percent).

E.

Although the use of sophisticated acoustical instrumentation for the measurement of equivalent sound level, Leq, (dBA) is available and its use is preferred; it is not essential for the purposes of this chapter. The equivalent sound level (Leq) of the noise source in question may be estimated using a hand held sound level meter by averaging at least twenty separate observations over a measurement interval that is representative of a typical one hour operation of the noise source. Depending on the character of the noise source the measurement interval may vary from as little as a few minutes to as long as one hour.

F.

"Slow" meter response is generally preferred. However, if the noise source changes level rapidly in a random fashion several times a minute, exceeding a ten dB dynamic range, then "fast" response shall be used. The noise control officer can make a determination of the appropriate meter, meter response, "fast" or "slow" to be used in those cases that are unclear.

(Ord. 1067, 2/27/2024)

The following noise performance standards are applicable to all drilling or production operations within the city unless approved otherwise through the conditional use permit procedure. The noise levels caused by drilling, redrilling or production operations shall be monitored on a complaint basis or periodically at the discretion of the noise control officer of the city. The cost of such noise monitoring shall be borne by the operator conducting such drilling, redrilling or production operations.

A.

Maximum Permissible Sound Levels by Receiving Land Use. No person shall operate or cause to be operated any oil drilling or production equipment at any location within the incorporated city which causes the noise level when measured on any other property, either incorporated or unincorporated, to exceed the noise level limits set forth for the receiving land use category in Tables 17.680.006(1) and 17.680.006(2).

B.

Noise Abatement Methods. The noise abatement method(s) in which the operator meets the noise level standards in Table 17.680.006(1) or 17.680.006(2) shall be determined by the operator to allow the operator the flexibility of utilizing the most efficient and cost effective method(s) available to the operator.

1.

If noise complaints are received by the city, or if noise levels exceed those permitted by this chapter, a noise violation notice shall be issued to the operator.

2.

Upon receipt of notice, the operator shall submit for the approval of the community development department the procedures the operator will undertake to correct the violation. Corrective measures must be initiated within twenty-four hours of operator's receipt of the notice. The city may require additional or follow-up noise field tests by an acoustical engineer to ensure compliance, in which case the operator shall pay the actual costs to the city for such tests.

3.

Failure to comply shall be reason for the city to limit drilling, redrilling or other operations to daylight hours (seven a.m. to seven p.m.).

4.

Nothing shall preclude the city from pursuing other administrative or legal remedies to obtain compliance. C.

Adjustment for Ambient Noise Level. In the event the ambient noise level exceeds those limits established in Table 17.680.006(1) or 17.680.006(2), then the planning commission may adjust the "exterior noise limits" upward for the particular site in question to reflect said ambient level only after careful consideration of all pertinent data. However, in no case will the "exterior noise limits for production operation," Table 17.680.006(2), be increased by more than ten dBA.

D.

Correction for Character of Sound, Production Operations Only. In the event the alleged offensive noise, as judged by the noise control officer, contains a steady audible tone such as a whine, screech, or hum, the standard limits set forth in Table 17.680.006(2) shall be reduced by five dBA.

E.

Pulsating or intermittent noise activities such as hammering or rocking pipes, acceleration and deceleration of engines or motors, low speed compressors which fire intermittently and other such pulsating or intermittent noises shall be prohibited between the hours of ten p.m. to seven a.m. for all drilling operations and shall be prohibited at all times for all production operations if such noise creates a nuisance within any residential, commercial or industrial area.
