simply represents the

However, f the S t a t e perceives t h e County
s
abusing t s
d i s c r e t i o n i n

these exem ptions,
then
t h e
State
c o u l d
take

I n
the
present case,

The
County

Ordinance does not
change
h i s
b a s i c

I t
simply a l l o w s
f o r
the
issuance
of
an

Therefore,
exempting
these
events
from
the proposed
Ordinance
does not
c r e a t e ne w
o p p o r t u n i t i e s . I t would simply mean t h a t

A l i s o n
reviewed
the
h i s t o r y
of the
current
Outdoor F e s t i v a l s
Ordinance
OFO)
nd
how
t
h as
evolved
to
the
current
e r s i o n
of
the
proposed
Outdoor
Event Ordinance (OEO).
S h e provided
a
handout of
a s l i d e
s h o w prese nted to
the B oard
on
May
27,
2014. The
primary
drawbacks
of
the
o r i g i n a l/current
OFO
w e re
that
t
d i d not
hold property
owners
accountable, and
there w as
no
enforcement mechanism
f
a permit w a s
not obtained.
T h e
proposed
OEO
s
designed
to
be
complaint-
driven
and to provide t o o l s
f o r
the
County
to address
e v e r a l current
/ongoing s s u e s
at
e v e r a l
p r o p e r t i e s around
the
County
as w e l l as future
complaints.
Steve
added that t a t e
law
r e q u i r e s
commercial eve nt a c i l i t i e s have
two
access
p o i n t s f o r f i r e
s a f e t y
P u b l i c
Resources Code
4290
and
4291).
T h e OEO
s designed
to
allow
people to do
t h i n g s
some
imes
that
they
u r r e n t l y
are
not
able to
do
l l the time.
Th e t a t e
a l s o
has laws for
a n i t a t i o n
i n
the
Health
and
Safety Code). S a n i t a t i o n
f o r
commercial venues
must
be permanent.
Steve w i l l
provide
the
r e l e v a n t
code e c t i o n s to
th e
event group.
(Note
—this
s
not a r o v i s i o n i n the proposed OEO,
but s i n
the
x i s t i n g
Use
Permit
requirements).
Question w a s asked
w h et her
the
minimum of 4
ommercial
events
per year
a t
one
property
could be
increased to a
greater number. Steve responded that
e c h n i c a l l y
the S t a t e does
not
allow
any
commercial
c t i v i t i e s
i n r e s i d e n t i a l
areas.
Steve
and A l i s o n a l s o
c l a r i f i e d that there
s
no t a t e code
e t t i n g
the 4 inimum
as proposed
i n
the
d r a f t
OEO,
ut
that the
County s p a s t
h i s t o r y

with the
State
has
s h o w n
t
may
not have
an

with
t h i s number. Any
more
than
t h i s
and
the
event/ f a c i l i t y
could be
shut
down
by
the S t a t e .
A d d i t i o n a l l y
the S t a t e
could r e s t r i c t
the
County
from making other,

There
was
a
d i s c u s s i o n
about complaints. A l i s o n s a i d
t h a t
complaints
must
be
i n v e s t i g a t e d an d
s u b s t a n t i a t e d
before f u r t h e r a c t i o n or
enforcement c c u r s .
D u s t i n
asked i f the S h e r i f f has
the
d i s c r e t i o n
to extend the time/ d u r a t i o n of
an
event,
why
not
the n u m b e r of events?
Steve
responded w i t h a
b r i e f e x p l a n a t i o n r e g a r d i n g the
fundamentals
of a n d use
r e g u l a t i o n s .
He
e x p l a i n e d t h a t the
l a n d
use
c o de
e s t a b l i s h e s areas
t h a t
communities
determine, by
a
p u b l i c p r o c e s s , where
s i m i l a r
uses and
a c t i v i t i e s
can
be grouped
t o g e t h e r . The C o n d i t i o n a l Use
permit s a p r o c e s s
to
a l l o w a c e r t a i n degree of b l u r r i n g
o f the
l i n e s
between
r e s i d e n t i a l
and
commercial
u s e s , where the pri mary use s r e s i d e n t i a l but a
s u b s i d i a r y
use
might be
piano t u t o r i n g , a welding
s e r v i c e
or
other
commercial a c t i v i t y . The
CUP
s t a b l i s h e s
parameters
to minimiz e n u i s a n c e , s a f e t y and environmental impacts. The
l i m i t
of our
s
intended
to
p r o t e c t the i n t e g r i t y of r e s i d e n t i a l areas
and
a l l o w
a
few
events
without
r e q u i r i n g a CUP.
More than
f o u r ,
and
the
ow ner
can
t i l l apply o r
a
CUP.
D u s t i n
asked
what
are
t y p i c a l
c o s t s and
t i m i n g f o r
a Use Permit? Steve s a i d i t depends on th e
defined n a t u r e
of
the a c t i v i t y , the
p h y s i c a l
property
and
other
parameters.
The
County
can
only
charge f o r a c t u a l s t a f f
time,
which i n c l u d e s review, n s p e c t i o n s and
hearings) e f o r e the
Planning a u t h o r i t y and p o s s i b l y the Board. Timing can
take
as i t t l e as 3 onths or
l o n g e r ,
depending on i n d i v i d u a l
circumstances.
Some
r o p e r t i e s may u s t
not be s u i t a b l e f o r
event
venues.
n o n e example,
property owner
was
r e q u i r e d
by
the F i r e
Marshal
t o
o b t a i n
secondary
emergency a c c e s s . She has
been
unable to o b t a i n an
easement
from
a
neighbor
an d
has
spent time
and
l e g a l c o s t s
on
t h i s m a t t e r .
D u s t i n r a i s e d
a d d i t i o n a l
concerns.
A l i s o n
understood but a i d t h a t we have to s t a r t
somewhere. Some h i n g s
w i l l
probably
be
a d j u s t e d along
the
way.
Ordinances a r e
d r a f t e d
w i t h
the b e s t
p o s s i b l e
i n f o r m a t i o n to a n t i c i p a t e a s m u c h
as
p o s s i b l e , but we
annot
a n t i c i p a t e
every h y p o t h e t i c a l s i t u a t i o n .
While
n o
ordinance
s
p e r f e c t ,
they
have
to
be
s t r o n g enough to
p r o v i d e
c l e a r
g u i d e l i n e s and a l e g a l framework to a l l o w or
p r o h i b i t
an
a c t i v i t y . They
a r e
a l s o
l i v i n g
documents h a t
can
be a d j u s t e d
as
n e c e s s a r y . At
h i s
p o i n t we
need
to
m o v e
forward.
A l s o ,
m a n y
of the f i n e r
d e t a i l s would
be
addressed
i n
the g u i d e l i n e s and
a p p l i c a t i o n ,
which the
group can be i n v o l v e d i n developing.
Steve p r o v i d e d
the f o l l o w i n g
example
of how
codes
change:
20 y e a r s ago n o zoning ordinances
had p r o v i s i o n s f o r
c e l l
towers. Our ordinances a r e
designed
to
r e f l e c t the
commun ity s needs
as
w e l l
as p r o v i d e
h e a l t h
and s a f e t y p r o t e c t i o n s .
Heather
s t a t e d
f o r
the r e c o r d
she
f e l t t h a t her agreeing to r e s t r i c t weddings
and
events to
p a r c e l s over
5 c r e s
was an
important
c o n c e s s i o n .
She would
l i k e to
see
an
exemption
f o r
events under
100 people.
She s a i d that
our
County weddings can
range
from
9
-300,
though
t y p i c a l wedding
s i z e s
are
125-150.
A l i s o n
suggested t h a t we o u l d
review
the permit a c t i v i t y
a f t e r
the
ordinance s
adopted and
consider
whether an
exemption
c o u l d be
supported based
on the r e c o r d .
Steve
s a i d
he s s t i l l
concerned
about access
and
other
impacts,
eve n
f
under
100
people.
