Proposed General Plan Designation
Planning & Community Development Department
• High Mixed Use 0.0-3.0 FAR, 0-87 du/acre:
High Mixed Use. 0.0-3.0 FAR, 0-87 dwelling units per acre. Intended to
support the development of multi-story mixed use buildings with a variety of
compatible commercial (retail and office) and residential uses. Development
is characterized by shared open spaces, landscaping, and small to minimal
separations between buildings, and shared driveways and parking. Sites may
be exclusively commercial, but not exclusively residential. Mixed-use
development projects containing housing shall incorporate amenities
contributing to a quality living environment for residents including courtyards,
recreation facilities, and similar elements. Where buildings face the street
frontage, they shall be designed to enhance pedestrian activity with
transparent facades for retail uses and distinctive entries for housing. Parking
shall be located below or to the rear of the street. Projects constructed at
High Mixed Use densities may be required to develop pedestrian-oriented
streetscape amenities along their primary street frontages, consistent with
the improvement concepts and plans defined by the City.
22
Specific Plan Update
Planning & Community Development Department
• The proposed General Plan would broaden the allowed land
uses in this specific plan by allowing residential and mixeduse projects
• Subsequent to adoption of the General Plan, all specific plans
will be updated for consistency
• Until the specific plans are updated, projects must comply with
existing zoning and specific plan regulations
• The precise uses and development standards will be
established through the specific plan update process
• As part of the General Plan update process, staff will bring
forward an interim process for the Council’s consideration that
would allow certain projects that are clearly consistent with the
new General Plan to move forward
23
Specific Plan Update
Planning & Community Development Department
• Medical Services – Hospital Land Use is currently
allowed in the CG (Commercial General) zone,
CG zones within specific plans and the CD-6 zone
with approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
• Not known whether the proposed use would be
allowed in the updated Specific Plan.
24
Process
Planning & Community Development Department
• A Medical Services – Hospital Land Use is not a
permitted use in the zoning district.
• Text amendments would be needed to allow
Medical Services- Hospital Land Uses within the
South Fair Oaks Specific Plan Area subject to
approval of a CUP:
> Amend South Fair Oaks Specific Plan; and
> Amend Zoning Code.
25
Process
Planning & Community Development Department
• Text amendments to the South Fair Oaks Specific
Plan can only be initiated by:
> The City Council; and
> The Planning Commission.

a future Agenda to consider initiation of
Amendment.
26
Process
Planning & Community Development Department
• Text amendments process, if initiated:

> Prepare final Initial Environmental Study and
Negative/Mitigated Negative Declaration or
Environmental Impact Report;
