<br />Urgency Ordinance Extension <br />Downtown Opportunity Sites <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />November 6, 2006 <br /> <br />. Pursuant to the provisions of Government Code section 65858 and based on the <br />foregoing, the City Council finds that issuing permits, or other applicable <br />planning approvals, with the exception of certain temporary uses as may be <br />deemed acceptable by the City Manager, prior to the completion of the Strategy <br />for the properties indicated below, poses a current and immediate threat to the <br />public health, safety, and welfare, and that therefore a temporary moratorium on <br />the issuance of such permits and other approvals, with exceptions as noted, is <br />necessary. <br /> <br />. The City Council may extend the interim ordinance for a maximum period of 22 <br />months and 15 days. However, at this time staff is anticipating that Zoning Code <br />amendments could be considered at the time that the Downtown TOD Strategy is <br />adopted, which is scheduled for July 2007, or shortly thereafter. It is therefore <br />suggested that the ordinance expiration date be set at November 6, 2007 or at <br />adoption of the amendments, whichever comes first. <br /> <br />Staff recommends that the City Council extend the moratorium to November 6, 2007, or <br />until any anticipated Zoning Code amendments are adopted, which ever comes first. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br /> <br />. In 2005, the City of San Leandro became a recipient of a $450,000 pilot planning <br />grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), and an <br />approximate $50,000 planning grant from Alameda County Transportation <br />Improvement Authority (ACTIA) to assist local governments in developing land <br />use plans and policies for areas immediately surrounding bus, ferry and train <br />stations. <br /> <br />. The Downtown San Leandro Transit-Oriented Development Strategy (Strategy) <br />will articulate and quantify the potential of the greater downtown area for transit- <br />oriented development. Comprehensive land use policies will be developed along <br />with a detailed land use map that reflect the benefits of enhanced bus service <br />through the downtown and improved connectivity to the BART system. Selected <br />opportunity sites will be studied to provide more specific guidance for future <br />development. <br /> <br />. The Strategy is currently under preparation, and is expected to be completed in <br />July 2007. <br /> <br />. As part of the Existing Conditions Report and Market Assessment Study, 39 <br />opportunity sites were identified in the Strategy area (l/2-mile radius from Davis <br />Street/E. 14th Street intersection). These sites, ranging in size from 0.2 to 11.6 <br />acres, were considered to be optimally sized and located to allow for transit- <br />oriented, mixed-use development in the downtown area. Due to their <br />underutilized or undeveloped status, they present an opportunity to act as near- <br />
