TO: The Honorable City Council �,
FROM: Patrick J. Richards, Director of Community Development
DATE: June 15, 1990 (CC meeting of 6/20/90)
SUBJECT: COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING ORDINANCE (CPO)
Background
On March 7, 1990 the City Council directed the subject of CPO to
an Ad Hoc Committee of Councilmembers Harper and Montgomery. The
Committee was to meet with the City Attorney so as to revise the
draft ordinance to accommodate an additional category of non -
designated pool; base capacity figure of 275,000 ADT (Average Daily
Trips) to come from the General Plan Consultant;s Traffic Model.
The Ad Hoc Committee has met several times with the City Attorney
since the March 7, 1990 City Council meeting. There have been
numerous additions, changes and alternatives have been reviewed and
considered by the Committee. Attached is the latest draft prepared
by the City Attorney and was presented to the Council at their June
4, 1990 meeting. At that time, not all of the numbers had been
included by staff and the matter was continued to the Council
meeting of June 20, 1990. The remaining information to be included
in the draft has now been added, and the draft is ready for
consideration.
Discussion
As noted above there have been a number of changes made to this
document since the Council last reviewed the matter on March 7th.
As indicated in staff's last memorandum to Council the following
were items still needing inclusion into the present draft:
1. A title and narrative description of the third category of
institutional land use (Sect:i.on 1.7.60.020 (e)).
799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864
The Honorable City Council
June 15, 1990
Page 2
2. The inclusion of the actual Base Capacities numbers (Section
17.60.040 A.).
3. A geographical description of the location of the Carlsberg
Specific Plan (Section 17.60.050 D.1.).
4. The creation of ADT numbers per gross acre for the various
land use designations (Section 17.60.070 A.).
The third title of institutional land use is titled "Governmental ".
This title is to cover such land uses as City Hall, Library,
Caltrans Construction Yard, future museum, etc.
The inclusion of actual base capacities numbers in this draft
differs substantially from the previous draft inasmuch as there is
no separate category for holding capacity or base outside of the
City. The numbers shown on the current draft are those created by
City Staff after reviewing the material provided by the General
Plan Update Traffic Engineer (AF). There are a number of ADT count
numbers which differ between staff's count and that identified by
Austin -Foust (see attached table). Staff's numbers are higher than
Austin - Foust's in the residential land uses and lower in the
commercial uses.
A geographical description for the Carlsberg Specific Plan has been
included inasmuch as this Specific Plan is being exempted from its
inclusion in making up or changing the Base Capacities (see page
7).
Staff has provided ADT numbers per gross acreage for each of the
General Plan Land Use designations. It will require that the
current General Plan Update efforts retain these land use
designations and add only the Governmental designation. This is
not what PBR is proposing.
The following is a comparison review between the draft given to the
Council or March 7th and the proposed draft as modified by the City
Attorney and presented from the Committee:
1. The Section numbers have all changed due to the recodification
of the City's Municipal Code,
2.
The Intent and Purpose
section
has not changed.
3.
Minor changes were made
in the
definitions section:
a. ADT was changed to strike "round ".
b. The words "or a Reorganization" were eliminated.

The term "gross
definition.
acreage" was added and became a new
e. This was the previous "d" section and rural low and rural
high was added. Also, school and park were added.
f. &
g. This is an added definition that refers to "Territorial
Area" and Non - Territorial Area. Exhibit A referred to
has yet to be created but is assumed to be the current
City limits.
h. This is a new definition which will deal with future
amendments to the City's General plan.
i. No change (previous "h" section).
Section 17.60.030 (previous 8.60.030) Limitation on General Plan
Amendments has not significantly changed with the exception of
those new definitions noted above
Section 17.60.040 (previous 8.60.040) Establishment of Base and
Holding Capacities has changed dramatically. There is no longer
the use of Growth Area vs. Non - Growth Area and Section 8.60.050 has
been eliminated which dealt with the Establishment of Base
Capacities inasmuch as Section 17.60.040 has combined the two
functions together. Once the Base Capacity is known, a five
percent factor will be added to created the Holding Capacity.
Section 17.60.050 Revision of Base Capacities is generally a new
section which addressed the need to make changes over time. There
are two parts to Subsection B which deals with requests to amend
the current General Plan and Subsection C which addresses the
Possibility of a future annexation to the City. These are
exceptions to Subsection B for Specific Plans and necessary
adjustments because of state mandated amendments to the Housing
Element.
Section 17.60.070 Calculation of ADT. This section is very
important because it is the core from which the Base Capacity
numbers are created. Also, once adopted these identified land use
designations may not be changed without a vote of the people (see
Section 17.60.070, Subsection B). There will need to be an
assumption that no land use designations changes will occur because
of the General Plan Update process. This proposal may precede the
final action on the General Plan Update. Table II attached to this
report gives a comparison between Austin - Foust's ADT numbers and
Staff's as noted previously.

The above shows a difference of about 6,000 ADT. Staff attempted to use as many categories as
possible, for example, office category 710 for the Poindexter and Baher office, convenience category
851 for Circle K and Tipsy Fox, etc. AF did likewise for office. But out methodology differs for
the choice of commercial category. Staff's version of the ITE Manual has one category for shopping
center (820) which is divided between under and over 200,000 sq.ft. center. AF has a category for
10- 50,000/50- 100,000 /and 100- 500,000 sq.ft. centers. We both used the same edition of the ITE
Manual but the formulas differ. Even with these differences the totals are still only 6,000 off.
Staff also took into account each of the proposed General Plan Amendments and a number of options
for Carlsberg which AF did not do. Also AF has no calculations for the non - growth
area.

APPENDIX A
LAND USE AND TRIP GENERATION
The material contained in this appendix summarizes the land use and trip generation for
the Moorpark Traffic Analysis Model (MTAM) analysis area.
TRIP GENERATION RATES
Trip generation rates used for analyzing development in the MTAM have been compiled
primarily from the Institute of Transportation Engineers' (7E) "Trip Generation" (Fourth Edition).
Table A -1 summarizes the peak hour and ADT trip generation rates for each land use, and Table
A -2 summarizes the purpose splitting factors used to generate productions and attractions by trip
purpose. The following discusses the derivation of the peak hour and ADT trip generation rates
for each land use category.
I. Residential - Rural
ADT and peak hour trip genreration rates were derived from the ITE rates for single family
detached housing. ITE's ADT rate of 10.06 trips per dwelling unit (DU) was adjusted to 13.00
based on rural residential trip generation characteristic of the Ventura County and Moorpark area.
Peak hour relationships were derived from the = peak hour rates for single family detached
housing and applied to the ADT rate. AM peak hour inbound (IB) and outbound (OB) rates are
.26 and .72, respectively, and PM peak hour IB and OB rates are .82 and .48, respectively.
2. Residential - Low (SFD)
ADT trip generation rate of 10.06 trips per DU and the corresponding peak hour trip rates
were taken from the ITE rates for single family detached housing. AM peak hour IB and OB rates
are .20 and .55, respectively, and PM peak hour IB and OB rates are .63 and .37, respectively.
3. Residential - Medium Low (SFD)
ADT trip generation rate of 10.06 trips per DU and the corresponding peak hour trip rates
were taken from the ITE rates for single family detached housing. AM peak hour IB and OB rates
are .20 and .55, respectively, and PM peak hour IB and OB rates are .63 and .37, respectively.

RE: PBR Comments Regarding The Comprehensive Plan Ordinance (CPO) Process
Dear Mayor Perez, Councilmembers and Planning Commission:
On June 13, 1990 I transmitted to you a letter presenting PBR's concerns regarding the
pending adoption of the CPO and its potential relationship to the General Plan Update
process. After reviewing my June 13, 1990 letter it appears that the reason for my
initiating the letter may be misconstrued. In the past, staff has mentioned the need for
PBR to be aware of the CPO process and its relationship to the General Plan Update
process. However, my recent written comments were not solicited by staff. It is our
review of the recent Council discussion relative to the CPO that prompted our letter.
It is my strong concern about the process that prompted me to act on my own to
transmit the letter. I apologize if my previous letter misled you otherwise.
Sincerely,
P

Development
On June 6, 1990, the City Council reviewed the latest draft
of the Comprehensive Planning Ordinance. This item was
carried over to the meeting of June 27, 1990 to incorporate
text changes by the City Attorney and to resolve a discrepancy
regarding the Base and Holding Capacity ADT numbers.
Discussion
In the previous draft, the Base and Holding numbers were
transposed and the totals presented to Council represented the
existing conditions (what was previously known as the Base).
In this report, the figures represent the City build -out at
the current General Plan. Staff is aware of the differences
between the totals of Austin -Faust and what staff is showing
in the latest draft.
The base capacities for the Comprehensive Planning Ordinance
is based upon the build -out of the city at the Current General
Plan Designations. This does not include any of the proposed
General Plan Amendments. The Carlsberg Specific Plan is
exempt from the provisions of this proposed Ordinance and is
not reflected in the total ADT numbers. The following totals
have been developed separately by staff and Austin -Faust in
conjunction with the General Flan Update and work done on the
CPO draft.

As can be seen, a large disparity exists between the totals
presented above. The following is a description of the differences
between Austin -Faust and Staff's ADT numbers:
Residential
Austin -Faust quotes a total of 11,391 dwelling units (7,221
units currently). Staff totals are 8,835 units presently and
10,120 total units of General Plan build -out in units. This
represents a difference of 1,271 units, but only 147 total ADT
difference. Austin -Faust includes 28 traffic study zones
which are outside the city limits. These 28 zones are listed
as including 1,597 units which would reduce Austin - Faust's
total to 9,794.
Commercial /Office
Austin -Faust has divided their commercial calculations between
retail and office uses based upon a 60% retail and 40% office
split. Staff assumes that all commercial will be retail
(Staff's ADT calculations for shopping centers takes into
account a commercial /office mix).
Austin -Faust projects 2,069,000 square feet of commercial and
1,076,000 square feet of office at General Plan build -out.
Austin Faust included the Carlsberg business park as part of
"office" numbers. Staff also included the Carlsberg Specific
Plan category for industrial only. Staff projects a total of
1,600,317 square feet commercial and office. This represents
a difference of 1,544,683 square feet and 63,334 ADT at build -
out.
*TSF - Thousand square feet
The Honorable City Council 3
June 27, 1990
Industrial
Austin -Faust indicates a General Plan build -out total of
8,883,200 square feet of industrial space for creating 56,900
ADT. Staff totals are 5,550,727 square feet at build -out.
The difference of 3,332,473 square feet represents
approximately 22,300 ADT. In addition, 357,000 square feet
of industrial is included in the Austin -Faust numbers outside
of the city limits.
Other
Austin -Faust ADT numbers include schools and parks in this
category; however, staff included churches. Austin -Faust also
used a higher student generation factor in their numbers.

CEQA Requirements
In order that this draft ordinance adhere to the State CEQA
Guidelines, staff has prepared a Negative Declaration. The
review period for the Negative Declaration is 21 days.
Therefore, no final action may be taken by the Council until
after the 21st day. The review period is from June 27, 1990
to July 18, 1990. Attached to this report is a reply from the
City Attorney regarding the subject of CEQA as it relates to
the draft CPO. Staff does not recommend that the Council
consider an exemption under the CEQA, inasmuch as the burden
of findings would potentially extend the process.
Conclusion
Staff believes that our numbers are a more accurate
representation of the conditions within the corporate
boundaries and should be used to set the base and holding
capacity numbers within the draft CPO.
The Honorable City Council
June 27, 1990

Dear Pat:
The City Council is considering the adoption of an
ordinance, otherwise known as the "CPO ", that would subject
major general plan amendments to approval by voter
initiative. The City Council is also considering submitting
the CPO to the voters as an initiative ordinance. By
telephone inquiry of June 20, 1990, you asked whether the
CPO is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act
( "CEQA ", Pub.Res.Code § 21000 et seQ.) Further inquiry was
made by the City Council at its meeting of June 20th.
Proposed governmental action is subject to CEQA
unless (i) the action does not constitute a project or (ii)
the action comes within an exemption. (CEQA Guidelines,
title 14, Ca1.Admin.Code § 15061.)
Specifically excluded from the definition of
project is the submittal of a proposal to a vote of the
people. (Guidelines, § 15378(b)(4).) However, the
submittal has to be a non - discretionary, ministerial act;
that is, action pursuant to a petition signed by the
requisite number of voters. (Stein _)EA City of Santa onica,
06/26/90 17.20 x'213 236 2700 LA MAIN --- CITY OF MOORPARK Z003/004
Mr. Patrick Richards

110 Cal.App.3d 458.) Since the CPO would be placed on the
ballot by City Council initiative rather than voter
initiative, the action is discretionary rather than
ministerial.
Project means "the whole of an action which has a
Potential for resulting in a physical change in the
environment, directly or ultimately . . . .11 (Guidelines, §
15378(a).) An action is exempt from CEQA where it can be
seen "with certainty" that there is "no possibility" of a
significant elect on the environment. (Guidelines, §
15061(b)(3).)//
The CPO would impose a procedure by which general
plan amendments are processed in the City. The CPO imposes
no criteria by which general plan amendments would be
evaluated for approval; nor does the CPO foster the
initiation of general plan amendments. Thus, if you
recommend to the City Council, and the City Council finds,
that the CPO does not constitute a project that has the
potential for resulting in a direct or ultimate physical
change in the environment or that it can be seen with
certainty that there is no possibility that the CPO may
significantly affect the environment, then a determination
can be made that the CPO is not subject to CEQA. Otherwise,
an initial study must be undertaken. The results of that
study will then determine if a negative declaration is
warranted or if an environmental impact report must be
prepared.
The CPO does not present a special or unique
situation under CEQA. As a general rule, any activity over
which the City has discretionary approval should be subject
to a preliminary review to determine whether the activity is
subject to CEQA. A notice of exemption may be filed
following the approval of any activity which the City
decides is not subject to CEQA. The posting of the notice
by the county clerk starts a 35 day statute of limitations
1/ This exemption is in addition to the so called statutory
exemptions (Guidelines, § 15260 et sea.) and categorical
exemptions (Guidelines, § 15300 g� sea,), none of which I
believe have the possibility of application to the CPo.

period on legal Challenges to the City's decision; without a
notice of exemption the statute of limitations is 180 days.
If I can be of any further assistance to you in
this matter, Please do not hesitate to contact me.
Very truly yours,
