The <br />proposed Zoning Map Amendments are also consistent with the purposes of the Zoning Code <br />contained in Section 1-104, including but not limited to: <br />·Guiding physical development in accord with the policies of the General Plan in order to: <br />o Preserve the character and quality of residential neighborhoods and commercial <br />and industrial areas consistent with the character of the development districts of the <br />City; <br />o Foster convenient, harmonious, and workable relationships among land uses; and <br />o Achieve progressively the land development described in the General Plan. <br />·Conserving and enhancing key visual features of San Leandro’s setting, including the <br />hillsides and bay front, consistent with the General Plan. <br />·Providing for the elimination, over time, of land uses and structures that are inconsistent <br />with the policies of the General Plan and adversely affect other property or uses. <br />Section 3-1008 of the Zoning Code specifies additional procedures for Zoning Amendments that <br />include a proposed PD Overlay District. In addition to the required findings stated above, the City <br />Council’s determination on a PD Overlay must also include a finding that a Planned Development <br />Concept Plan is consistent with the adopted General Plan Land Use Element and is compatible <br />with surrounding development. The proposed Planned Development Concept Plan is included as <br />Exhibit D to the attached draft resolution and has been analyzed for conformance with the <br />proposed General Plan and Zoning Designations. The updated Concept Plan is also consistent <br />with the General Plan’s goals, policies, and actions, as amended by PLN19-0074. <br />Disposition & Development Agreement <br />The DDA with Cal-Coast for the 75-acre Shoreline development area is a critical step forward in <br />realizing the long-held vision for a self-sustaining, mixed-use waterfront destination at the <br />Shoreline. The proposed DDA, PSA (Purchase and Sale Agreement for a portion of the <br />executive golf course), and leases provide a number of benefits to the community, including: <br />·Fulfill the community's vision to establish the Shoreline as a regional destination for dining, <br />lodging, entertainment, and recreation, while creating a new waterfront neighborhood with <br />mixed-density housing; <br />·Build approximately 20 on-site workforce housing units, and contribute over $2 million toward <br />the City’s affordable housing trust fund for investment in future affordable housing projects; <br />·Include key public improvements and recreational opportunities, including generating <br />approximately $30 million dollars in property sales and park impact fees to contribute towards <br />Page 8 City of San Leandro Printed on 2/19/202015
