One final reminder that the City of Sacramento

is still accepting applications for the 2025 Planning Academy

and will be until Friday, January 24th.

You can visit the City of Sacramento Community Development

Department website for more information

or just type Sacramento Planning Academy into your browser

and it will come up.

Thank you.

Thank you, Stasha.

We're welcome for our new commissioners, Larry Lee

and David Nibbo.

Give you guys a second to introduce yourselves.

Start with Larry.

Yeah, I can go.

Yeah, thanks for having me here.

Just a little bit of background for myself

for those who don't know.

My first generation in American, I'm fluent in Hong.

I grew up here in Sacramento, attending all Sacramento

schools, elementary through college.

Come from a really large family of 10, nine of us

are in local government as well.

I've lived in different parts of the city over the years.

I even worked for the city at some point of my life.

And so I've had the privilege of having

a dual perspective at both a lifelong resident

and a city employee.

And so I'm hoping to hope where I can.

And thank you for having me.

Yeah.

Go ahead, David.

My name is David Nibbo.

This is my second lap around on the Planning Commission.

My training.

I did master real estate development in an MBA from USC.

And for about 15, maybe a little bit more, 20 years.

I did land acquisition and entitlement

where I built or entitled anything from master

planning communities to subdivisions, to mid rise,

to high rise here in the Sacramento area,

and then also on the Bay area.

In 2008, I was invited to go find a new line of work

because land acquisition guys weren't needed.

And I went and have moved into out of home advertising.

I previously served about eight years on the Design Commission

and the Planning and Design Commission

when they were merged together.

I think that was a decade to go.

And then Commissioner Pluckybaum replaced me

because we supported different candidates.

And then he appointed me.

So it's a great honor to be back here.

I've tremendous admiration for the city,

for what the city does, for the city staff,

for it's just a wonderful place to live and to work

and to be a part of.

And I'm grateful that I can have the opportunity to serve again.

I look forward to your perspectives

and the coming weeks and months.

All right.

Okay, first, well, I'll ask us our second award group business then,

is to approve the consent calendar.

Clerk, are there any members of the public

who wish to speak on the consent calendar?

Thank you, Chair.

I have no speaker slips on this item.

All right.

Just for folks in chamber, we are going to switch up

the calendar on the discussion calendar.

The order of items will take the housing element item number four,

and then we'll take the selection of Chair and Vice Chair for 2025

last before we adjourn.

So now we will move on to item number two,

7465, Rush River Drive, Mono Pine Item P24-026.

We have Danny.

Are there any disclosures or recusals for this item?

I didn't think so.

Thank you.

Go ahead.

Can you hear me?

Oh, no.

OK.

Maybe I just have to get closer.

Thank you.

Good evening, everyone.

I am Danny Abbas and the planner for this project,

which is a request to construct a telecommunications facility.

Oh, there we go with visual.

It's a request to construct a telecommunications facility

at the rear of the Promenade Shopping Center,

located at the corner of Rush River and Windbridge

drives in the pocket neighborhood.

The applicant is seeking to replace an existing 54 foot facility

with a new 80 foot Mono Pine facility

to improve cellular coverage in the area.

The site is generally surrounded by low-lying residential

development with no natural opportunities

to accommodate antenna placement at a height

needed to solve coverage gaps.

On-site commercial buildings and mature pine trees

partially obscure and help blend the facility

with its surroundings.

The request requires planning design commission approval

of entitlements, including a conditional use permit

to establish a new telecom facility.

And site planning design review, including a deviation

to exceed the height standard within the shopping center

zone.

Planning staff recommends approval of the project

since it is designed to visually integrate with its surroundings

and accommodate multiple service providers.

And since it would support general plan policies

that encourage state-of-the-art communications facilities,

state-of-the-art communications for households, businesses,

institutions, public agency, and emergency response.

That concludes the presentation.

Both staff and the applicant would be available for any questions.

If there are any, thank you.

Thanks, Danny.

Do we have any speaker slips for this item clerk?

Thank you, Chair.

I have no speaker slips on this item.

All right.

Do we have any questions for staff or the applicant

or motions from the commission?

Commissioner Caden.

I'll make a motion to move the item.

All right.

Commissioner Hernandez?

I'll second.

All right.

We have a motion in a second.

Please take the roll.

Thank you, Chair.

Commissioner Lee?

Aye.

Commissioner Lamas?

Aye.

Commissioner Naiba?

Aye.

Commissioner Caden?

Aye.

Commissioner Hernandez?

Aye.

Commissioner Maseus Rhee?

Aye.

Bryce Shure Young?

Aye.

Commissioner Blant?

Aye.

Commissioner Chase?

Aye.

Commissioner Rishki?

Aye.

Commissioner Thompson?

Aye.

And Chair Wallace?

Aye.

Thank you, and the motion passes.

All right.

Thank you.

And now we'll do item number four, Housing Element

Implementation Program, H-20 Universal Design

Ordnance initial review.

We'll hear from Greta.

OK.

Good evening, commissioners.

My name is Greta Sous.

I am a senior planner with the Community Development

Department, and I'm here to present to you

on the city's Universal Design Ordnance.

So tonight I will provide an overview

of the existing ordinance, outline the scope of this project,

review what we've heard from stakeholders

during initial outreach, review some frequently

asked questions about the ordinance,

and a summary of the proposed amendments,

and end with some next steps.

The city's Universal Design Ordnance

was adopted in 2010.

It's based off of the state's model

Universal Design Ordnance.

This ordinance applies to new residential developments

of 20 units or more in the R1 and R1A zones.

It requires that at least one model in the development

include universal design features

that could be installed at the request of the home buyer.

The buyer could select any of these universal design

options listed in the ordinance.

The developer is required to provide those options

at the buyer's expense.

So in summary, the ordinance does not

require that all universal design features listed

in the ordinance be constructed.

They must just be available to purchasers

in at least one model in each project.

Key features that are required to be offered include

accessible primary and secondary entrances,

exterior and interior routes, bathrooms,

kitchens, common use rooms, bedrooms,

and routes to miscellaneous areas, as well as conduits.

Oops, sorry.

Looks like that was up there twice.

For future wiring of assistive technologies

in all exterior walls, outlets at the bottom

of and top of any stairs to facilitate the use of a chair

lift and other general components,

such as rocker lights, which is flooring materials,

raised outlets, and doors and openings for rooms.

Oh, sorry.

The photos were coming up.

OK, ordinance challenges.

Some challenges with the existing ordinance

are that very few buyers have requested installation

of universal design features that we know of.

We know of only a couple of cases.

And clarification has been requested of staff

in application of the ordinance in certain projects

that include multiple phases or series of their projects.

The city's housing element provides direction to review

and update this ordinance to provide clarification

on how and when the ordinance is applied.

It also commits to city partnering with AARP

and resources for independent living

to increase awareness of the city's universal design ordinance.

So far, staff has conducted outreach

to the following groups.

Home builders, such as individual builders

and the North State Building Industry Association,

resources for independent living, AARP,

and the city's housing policy working group.

A stakeholder group of over 40 representatives

from various sectors.

The outreach conducted to home builders

is summarized here on the slide.

When asked if home builders were aware of any homes

and subdivisions that they've worked on,

being constructed with universal design features,

only one buyer had requested the universal design features

of those that we surveyed.

When asked if their organization ever ran into questions

or complications regarding the scope and application

of the ordinance, generally there were no major questions

or complications, only suggestions related to applicability.

When asked if they believed the universal design ordinance

provides a benefit to their home sales,

there were mixed responses with more responses saying no.

And then when asked how the organization is meeting

the needs of an aging population, many builders

decided complying with the aging and place requirements,

but some findings assess in building active adult communities

and accessory dwelling units in junior ADUs

as part of their projects.

When asked if anything, if there was anything the city could do

to improve the current ordinance purpose and intent

based on their experiences,

most builders suggested that the ordinance didn't add much value

and that they're meeting the intent of the ordinance

in other ways, such as creating communities entirely

marketed towards older adults, which are easier to implement

than trying to fit these requirements

into existing standard market rate developments.

When speaking with older adult and independent living advocates,

they were supportive of the current ordinance,

not really surprised by the lack of the awareness

of the ordinance among organizations and buyers,

and were very supportive of increasing education

about this ordinance and about universal design in general.

When bringing this to the housing policy working group,

there are suggestions for city personnel

to be more focused on enforcement of these requirements.

There was interest in finding funding partners to aid

in the cost of purchasing these features for buyers,

and there was a suggestion to research the city of Davis's

universal design access code and adopt something similar.

For frequently asked questions, sorry,

a common question is can the city require developments

to build these universal design features, not just offer,

and state law requires that our local ordinance

be substantially the same as the model ordinance,

which it is, which is to offer the features,

not to require them to be built.

And all universal design ordinances must be five,

universal design ordinances must be filed

with the California Department of Housing

and Community Development for review

before they can go into effect.

Another question that comes up is how does this differ

from the new home universal design checklist

that was established through AB 1400.

Back in 2003, this legislation required HCD to develop

guidelines and adopt what was called

the new home universal design option checklist.

And this law does not require that the builders

offer accessibility features.

It does require that they provide a list of features

and whether or not they are offered.

So that is a clarification there.

And then how does this ordinance differ

from aging and place requirements

that are in the building code?

So these requirements, the aging and place requirements

are required to be built into all newly constructed,

one or two family dwellings.

But these represent the most commonly desired

and easily achievable features such as larger doors,

grab bar backing and switch and outlet locations.

The city's universal design ordinance

provides the potential for a greater level

of accessibility.

Staff proposes the following amendments

to clarify the current ordinance

as summarized in the staff report and on this slide here.

So first you propose modifications

to the scope and application section,

removing the reference to R1 and R1A zones

due to current work underway

to modify the city's planning development code

for consistency with the 2040 general plan.

And adding language to ensure that residential development projects

that include multiple development phases

adequately meet the intent of the ordinance

by offering at least one model

in each marketed phase of the project.

We also suggest streamlining exemption language

under section 15.154, 060.

We also are proposing exempting housing development projects

that are subject to the California Building Code chapter 11a

or 11b, which have more universal design

and accessibility requirements.

And then only requiring standards

for powder room or bathroom facilities

if a powder room is offered on the primary entry level

and then same for common use rooms.

So only requiring those universal design standards

on the primary level, if a common use room exists

on that primary level.

And these two proposed, these last two amendments

mirror the way that the features are required

of kitchens and bedrooms.

City staff have spoken with resources for independent living

and ARP who have agreed to partner with the city

to increase awareness of this ordinance

to potential new home buyers by speaking at existing events

that are organized by these organizations

and also offering in person

and virtual information sessions about the ordinance.

Tonight we're seeking commission review and comment

on this ordinance in terms of next steps.

Staff will bring this item for review and comment

to the Disabilities Advisory Commission in March

with intentions of bringing a revised ordinance

for adoption to Law and Legislation Committee

and City Council in the spring.

This concludes my presentation

and I'm happy to answer any questions.

Also here with us tonight is Daniel Valencia

Super Revising Engineer

over our Building Plan Check Team in the Building Division.

Thank you.

Thank you, Greta.

Clerk do we have any speakers for this item?

Thank you chair.

I have one speaker for this item.

Dawn Angelo.

Good evening chair and commission members.

My name is Dawn Angelo and I serve as a Sacramento Regional

Director for AARP.

I am here on behalf of the 70,000 plus AARP members

in the city of Sacramento to express our support

for the review of the universal design ordinance.

At AARP one of our top priorities is housing

that creates more age-friendly communities.

We know that housing needs change as we age.

According to an AARP survey, 90% of adults

aged 50 and older would prefer to stay in their homes

as they age.

However, as these adults age,

they may begin to face obstacles within their homes

that make living independently a challenge.

Universal design is one way to address these issues.

Universal design as we just heard

is an approach to home building, remodeling

and community development that centers on safety

and ease of movement both inside and outside of the home.

It accommodates the mobility needs of all residents

and allows older adults to age at home

and in their communities where they have strong social networks

and a sense of familiarity.

By 2030 it is projected that one in four Californians

will be 65 and older and by 2035 the number of adults

older than 65 will be greater than the number

of children under 18.

This means our housing stock needs to change

in order to accommodate our aging population.

In some cases, a few simple changes

can help meet the needs of older adults.

Many universal design features are inexpensive

and simple-tint-style while others are more complex

and pricier, but investing in a few small changes now

can help an individual remain in their home longer.

A home that incorporates universal design features

such as a no-step entry, wide doorways,

four wheel chair access and easy grasp lever style

handles in place of door knobs will not only keep

individual safe and comfortable in their home

but also add value to their home.

Older consumers will continue to be looking for these features

as they make housing choices in a competitive

market place.

We are committed to helping the city

with outreach initiatives and generate greater awareness

of the universal design and we will continue

to share AARP resources and information that help

older adults remain independent and safe in their home

throughout the city of Sacramento.

Thank you.

Thank you for your comment.

Chair, we have no more speaker slips.

Thank you, Clerk.

Any discussion or questions for staff?

This is a review and comment item,

so they're looking for our feedback

and recommendations to the audience.

Vice Chair, yeah?

I had a question for the speaker.

I'm just sort of intrigued by the universal design standards

and whether or not there's sort of like a subset of standards

for maybe seniors who are losing their vision

or losing their hearing.

Is there any type of thought in the standards regarding that?

I have to be honest, I think it's really specific

to the individual and what their needs might be related to that.

So I might actually look at Greta to see if there's anything

specific, but if not and just looking at the expression,

that's something we can follow up with and let you know,

but I think it really is dependent on what that individual's needs are.

Great, thanks.

Thank you, Vice Chair Young.

I'm Commissioner Lamas.

Chair, and thanks for the summary and the presentation.

I did have a question for staff in terms of this cost to the buyer.

When the developers going through the design and approval process

with the city, do they have to provide plans

for what the design modifications would look like during that phase

or an anticipation of someone asking for them

or when someone who's interested in buying the home

wants to go down that path, does the developer have to go

and get some kind of subsequent approval for the design and modifications?

I'm wondering if that's like a cost that the buyer may have to bear.

No, so they're required to submit those designs as part of their plans

that Daniel's team reviews, so that is standard as part of their

submittal requirements.

Their staff ensure that those designs are a part of the plan.

So the buyer does not have to pay for the design of those features.

They're already planned to be installed if they're requested,

but they do have to pay for any additional costs that might incur

from those features being selected, if that makes sense.

Okay, thank you. That's helpful.

And I'm glad to hear that it's kind of structured that way.

It probably helps with being able to build it out quicker

to, as opposed to having to go through the design and approval

as someone who's interested.

I'm also kind of curious, because I think part of this item was to ask for

inside us to how to increase awareness of the universal design.

When a development is being built out,

would staff happen to know if the units are being built out on a certain schedule,

regardless of whether or not there's a buyer, or are they being put on hold

until a buyer comes and says, these are the design features that I want.

Regardless of its universal design, or just a standard home purchase.

Are they being built out without a buyer, or are they waiting for a buyer to come

to build those out?

Would you happen to know that?

Hi. That varies by builder, really, and it depends on how well the market

is performing at the time.

There are times where builders will wait until they have potential buyers

that select a lot and then place the plan.

But none of the universal design features are necessarily required when they build ahead of time.

Okay. Thank you, I figured it was probably a little more complex than just say yes or no.

I guess I just imagine that there's probably realtors that work with developers

and situations where they hold off on building the units until they have the buyers.

I imagine they'd be a great point of reference to help disseminate information about

these are the potential options you have before they start construction.

But just trying to be mindful of who might be able to help disseminate some of this information.

I was also curious about the city of Davis's universal design.

There was reference that the city might be looking at the city of Davis.

I'm curious what is different or what is the city of Sacramento interested in when looking at their universal design ordinance.

Based on some initial conversations with building staff, I think the requirements in the city of Davis's

ordinance are very similar to the aging and place requirements.

There might be some minor differences.

But again, that type of ordinance would kind of be structured differently.

Our ours is entirely, it's based on offering the buyer, these features, right, rather than requiring builders.

So that would be kind of a much bigger shift in the way that we do this type of ordinance.

So I think the fact that it's not majorly different from the aging and place requirements, it's not as, you know, I think, desirable to go down that route.

But it's something that we could always look further into.

Okay. Thank you. Thank you for that.

Okay. That's all of the questions I have now.

I support this ordinance. Glad it's already in effect.

We do. We are able to increase the awareness and more folks start requesting it.

And for that, you'll have my time.

Thank you, Commissioner Lamas. Commissioner Chase.

Thank you, Chair. Thank you, Greater Daniel, for the presentation.

I've been a long time advocate for universal design.

I think aging and place is something that folks could look forward to and kind of plan on that coming down the line.

The challenge is oftentimes people don't realize how important it is until you need it immediately.

I had a very serious near fatal motorcycle crash a number of years back was not living in a house with a universal design.

It's a two story house, no bedrooms on the first floor, no full bathroom, just a powder room.

I lived in a hospital bed in the living room for a good month and not the best solution.

So I think the idea hopefully universal design will get built into the needs.

Builders will realize that there's a marketing value to it and begin to incorporate it in there.

I think having at least one bedroom on the lower level in a bathroom, if it is a two story house,

it could go a long ways to accommodate in that and or a one story house, which after that crash, I live in a one story house.

Hopefully no more crashes.

Anyway, I totally in favor of the ordinance.

I know it's not an item, but I would offer positive review to moving it forward.

Thank you.

Thank you Commissioner Chase.

Next is me.

I had some questions about sort of our relationship with advocates.

How does, do we know how people become connected to RIL?

I'm not sure exactly.

I've been imagining they could just reach out to them.

I don't know where they advertise.

Well, so the reason I was thinking is like I'm going through some similar or some of these issues with like aging parents and stuff and like finding out where like as a person who's not doesn't need to be connected to these things personally, finding out where and who can help me find out what I need to know to ask the right questions has become very apparent to me that that doesn't really exist.

And so I'm curious like if folks like end up with a disability like do they receive information from the county or from the city like these are the organizations that can help you sort of like modify your home or like these are the modifications that you might consider.

So it's just more around this question about marketing and who are we talking to.

Like I think you know sort of alluding to someone like becomes blind or deaf.

Like what are the resources and how are we making sure that they are being connected to recommendations to make their to be able to like stay in their homes.

Yeah, I know that a RP dawn actually shared with me some great resources that they have a home fit guide and they host workshops and events for folks who are seeking to modify their existing home and resources for independent living also has similar partnerships I think with rebuilding together or I don't know if a RP probably does to you.

So I think they both do kind of play similar roles in trying to connect people with resources city doesn't do much of that but I think that they're both staff that I've spoken to at both those entities have been really helpful.

I'm sure if I put you in touch with dawn she would share plenty of resources.

Yeah, I wasn't asking for me necessarily just because it's stuff I'm dealing with it's in so calisthen it's not even here but just thinking about outreach and many other things.

And I think I'm just thinking about outreach and making sure we're getting to all the elements of the community that might benefit from that dialogue that's all.

Yeah, cool.

I think commissioner interesting.

Thank you.

Thompson.

Sorry.

I'm a huge fan of universal design.

One of the things that I have always found really important about what architects bring to the table is being able to anticipate.

The future that's unknown through the way you craft a space and some of those moves can be so simple.

And I think that's an amazing thing to bring to the table in universal design absolutely aligns with that.

I live in a house that we purchased it from a person who was able to live there and pass away there so he spent by choice his last days there and was in a wheelchair.

And our house always are lined with wheelchair marks and our doors have big gouges in them because of course our house wasn't designed for that.

Obviously he made do and did a beautiful thing but it's brought really strong to light that when we think about universal design and aging in place and all of those things you think about like myself I picture me in 40 years or 20 years or however like it's not now it's for the future it's for not me is for my parents.

And in reality if we're lucky we all get to be there and we're all working so hard to have these housing places where we get to stay and if we're in these places that get to be designed through some simple moves I know some of them are complex but most of them on the design end are simple moves that you're making.

That can meet those needs for us now I think that's something that we should fully support and then on top of it I think maybe a recommend would be to push a little bit harder with the younger group that this right now is giving you some insurance because you don't know what's going to happen you don't know if your parents will move into you don't know if you'll get in a motorcycle accident none of that matters it's here's a really simple thing you can do to make sure that that drama you don't know what's going to happen.

That drama you don't have to mess up and awkwardly get down your hallway so that was all thank you.

Thank you commissioner rescue or sorry Thompson commissioner rescue did you have anything to add okay you did up like you might.

Okay any other comments or questions or recommendations to staff.

This is just review and comments we don't need to take a vote all right move on to the next item which is this election of chair and vice chair for calendar year 2025.

Do we need speakers for this.

Okay.

Before I hand off my gavel I just want to say that I really enjoyed being the chair and also the vice chair and I as I told commissioner and I bow this morning this is the best that you could have body in the city.

And I think all of you bring so much interesting perspective and consideration to this process and it has been my honor to serve and with that I will entertain motion for the chair.

And then we'll take a motion for the vice chair.

Commissioner Muscus read.

Before I second that nomination I also wanted to just take the time to thank you.

I'm just going to thank you for your service as chair and just your efforts to make this time accessible for the general public and the commission.

And I feel like in this past year you know that the community has really benefited by just being able to yet.

And I think you established a really good tone for that and really also supported the planning commissioners in that endeavor as well.

So I want to just give you kudos and the comfort to some more time with you.

And with my second for Bob I also like to second him for vice chair.

I think the years that he has served alongside us he has demonstrated just really sharp thinking and eye for design and but also just an educator for all of us.

So those of us who do not have a design background.

So I think it's a good time to be intimidating but you bring a really nice just down to earth flavor to just helping us better understand what better design looks like.

Thank you chair elect young.

Commissioner Chase.

Thank you.

First I want to thank all of my fellow commissioners for your support but also for your great work on this commission is the four years that I've been here.

The Commission on current as a thoroughly and on the business commitments and the split up down up the fact that I have worked

on the benefits you have helpedして.

I always began to meet people coming up and shouting that I was treated as a person without the means of that re motherf*****´s

thinking about it and I have a question, know you're going to be helping him much better, you tell me anyway.

and I'm looking forward to the right ahead

and we've got some really sharp thinkers,

but also just a lot of big hearts.

And I think that's that combination really will take us far.

So I'm looking forward to working with you guys.

Thank you.

Thank you.

And then I have a note.

I wanna congratulate commissioners,

Macias Reed and Lomas for their selection

as Sacramento's top Latino change makers in Sacramento B.

Congratulations to both.

I love that on our body we had two people.

I had something to do with the creation of this program,

so I'm excited to see people I really admire be recognized.

And we'll just keep gassing each other up

because that's how things get done.

But congratulations is much deserved.

Yeah, there is a unity, Gala, I think it's usually at sex state.

It's usually in March, but I don't have the details.

Maybe you guys too.

We could talk about it.

We just can't talk business while we're there.

Yeah, right.

Great.

And if anyone else have anything else they want to say tonight?

All right, so then clerk do we have public comments

for matters not on the agenda?

Thank you, Chair.

I have no speaker slips for this item.

All right, then we are adjourned at 615.

Thank you all.
