Approve the Use Permit (UP 15-282) application subject to the attached findings and conditions.
SUMMARY
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The project site is a 16,000-square foot property located at the southeast corner of Dolores Street and
Seventh Avenue. The site is developed with two commercial buildings that are a combined 5,357
square feet in size. The site also includes a parking lot that accommodates up to 30 vehicles when
parked by valet service. On August 6, 2013, the City Council approved a Use Permit (UP 12-20)
application allowing the building to operate as a venue for special events and providing for off-site
parking for the venue. A second Use Permit (UP 14-19) for live music at the site was approved by the
City Council on January
6
2015. The Conditions of Approval for the original Use Permit is included as
Attachment 4.
Municipal Code Section 17.68.030 classifies the use of the site as a community center, which is defined
as
any public, private, commercial,
or
nonprofit facility established to provide social, educational,
recreational, or cultural programs, meetings, or lectures, or similar activities. Staff notes that
community centers are a permitted use in the Central Commercial Zoning District; however, a use
permit (UP 12-20) was issued to allow off-site parking for larger events in which parking demand could
not be accommodated
on
site. Off-site parking for larger events occurs at the Sunset Center parking lot
and at the Carmel Plaza parking garage through a valet service (National Parking and Valet).

The applicant (C Pines
7
LLC)
is
requesting approval
of
a third Use Permit (UP 15-282) to allow
commercial parking at the site. The project description provided by the applicant, included as
Attachment 3, proposes to use the parking lot to provide valet parking for: 1) 7D events, 2) for Cypress
Inn guests and potentially other hotel guests, and 3) would provide paid parking for the general public.
The applicant has indicated that 7D events would have first priority, and that no other parking services
would be offered when an event is scheduled. The applicant has also indicated that Cypress Inn would
have second priority and that general public would have third priority. The valet service would shuttle
cars from the loading area
in
front of the Cypress Inn to the Seventh and Dolores parking lot.
City Municipal Code Section 17.68.050 defines a commercial parking facility as surface lots
nd
structures. above and below ground, offering parking to the public for a f e. Municipal Code Section
17.14.030 requires a conditional use permit for such use. The use of the site as a commercial parking
facility is not included
in
the authorization for Use Permit (UP 12-20), which permits the site to be used
as a community center with valet parking provided to event attendees in association with events at the
site. Hence, the applicant has applied for a use permit to allow commercial parking at the site.
In previous hearings, two Planning Commissioners recused themselves from applications involving this
facility. One owns property within 500 feet
of
the project site and the other has stated a conflict of
interest. The Planning Commission Rules of Procedure states that four members are required to make
a quorum when voting on a use permit. Because only three Commissioners would have been able to
participate, this Use Permit application has been referred to the City Council for consideration. Staff
notes that Use Permits (UP 12-20) and (UP 14 -19) were also reviewed by the City Council due to a
conflict of interest for two of the Planning Commissioners
ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION
With regard to parking in the Commercial District, the Circulation Element of the General Plan provides
the following policy recommendations:
02 4
Recognize
th
at it is not practical to provide sufficient parking that meets total demand at every
location; but that it
is
desirable to provide, where practical, a lternate parking where it could be removed
from public view and in a scale appropriate to Carmel.
P2 19 Benefit to and impact on residents of Carmel-by-the-Sea and its visitors shall be the primary
factors to be considered when evaluating and deciding upon development of
of f
-street parking facilities.
(LUP)
P2 21 Investigate possible public parking locations in the commercial areas, in the R-4 area, and
existing sites devoted exclusively to parking in the R-1 district. f a parking structure is considered ,
encourage underground parking, and ensure that the structure is compatible with the neighborhood and
consistent with the Design Guidelines.
P2 25 Evaluate a paid parking program for the downtown.
The applica
nt
is proposing to utilize the site for paid public parking and to provide parking for the
neighboring Cypress Inn and potentially other hotel guests. Staff notes that the Cypress Inn is
permitted 33 units, but has only 9 off-street parking spaces at an off-site location. The applicant's

Agenda Item:
4
Page 2
-
8/20/2019 Use Permit (UP 15-282) Application 09-01-15
3/14
proposal is consistent with policies
of
the General Plan that encourage investigating opportunities for
providing additional parking in the downtown. Staff could support the proposal with a condition that the
parking lot not
be
used for paid public parking or for hotel guests during scheduled events, as indicated
by the applicant. A condition of approval has been drafted to address this requirement and includes a
provision that the Use Permit be scheduled for review
by
the City Council if compliance with this
condition is not met. The City currently employs two code compliance officers that will monitor the site
for compliance.
The applicant s proposal would intensify the use of the site and increase traffic generation to some
degree. However, in
st ffs opinion the additional parking service would have a minor impact on traffic,
given that only 30 vehicles can be parked at the site. A condition has been drafted requiring that a
status report on Use Permit (UP 15-282) be provided to the City
Council within six months from the
date of approval. The condition also requires that the Use Permit be reviewed by the City Council if it is
determined by Community Planning and Building Department or the Police Department that the parking
activity
is
having a negative impact on the surrounding neighborhood and adjacent intersections or
being used contrary to the authorized conditions.
Staff notes that applicant has requested the ability to allow parking for other hotel guests in addition to
the Cypress Inn. The Conditions of Approval authorizes the site to be used for general hotel guests;
however, the Council may choose to the condition the Use Permit to specifically allow only Cypress Inn
guests. This may be preferable, as it would reduce potential conflicts between parking for hotel guests
and 7D event attendees.
VALET SIGNAGE AND EQUIPMENT
The site has an entrance on Dolores Street and an entrance on Seventh Avenue. The applicant is
proposing to place a valet podium, umbrella, and signage at both entrances. Additional public parking
signage with the fee amount is proposed to
be
displayed at the entrances when the parking lot is
available for public use. Photographs of the equipment and signage are
in
cluded
in
Attachment 3.
Staff supports the design of the podium and umbrella, but has concerns with the design of the public
parking signs. A condition has been drafted requiring the applicant to submit a sign application for
administrative staff approval. Staf f recommends that the public parking signs be consistent with City
standards, which includes the use of natural materials such as wood.
ALTERNATIVES
Staff has prepared draft findings and conditions of approval for Council consideration based on the
information submitted by the applicant. As an alternative, the Council could continue the application
with a request for specific changes, or could deny the application and direct staff to prepare findings for
denial based on deliberation at the September
1
2015 public hearing.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This application qualifies for a Class 3 Categorical Exemption from the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15303 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Class 3
exemptions include projects involving limited new construction projects and conversion of small
