Good afternoon Hilary, I have no additional comments. It is going to increase staff time and will
most likely have to put an additional employee on for the events, but I also think it will make for a
great event offering more to the attending public.
Thanks,
Doug

Hi Hilary,
Spoke to you in regards to this earlier, but please proceed with our car show on original date of June 18th, 2016. I see the Home
Wine & Beer Makers Festival as an added bonus and like you say, I too believe the events would compliment each other. We have always been missing food at our event, but have just walked up to main street and find something. The idea of food vendors in the park and then washing it down with a cold home brew sounds perfect. After reading about their event on their webpage it sounds like a great event. Several of our car club members are really enjoy beer and wine so I imagine quite a few would attend, but I would definitely be attending their event. Hopefully the other event is open to us being on park street so all those who choose to, can enjoy both events.
I know a few years back there was a afternoon wedding in the gazebo the same day as our event and we wrapped up a little early that year and I would be happy to do that again if needed. If any organizers from the other event have any questions about our event please provide my contact info and I would be happy to discuss any details or work out out any issues.cell:(650)773-9553email: [email protected]

Hi Rich,
I received your application for this year’s Camp and Shine.
There will be another event in Library Park that day. It is the Home Wine & Beer Makers Festival, and it generally draws about 500 people.
It doesn’t necessarily have to conflict with the car show on Park Street, but I did want to give you a heads up.
Otherwise, Saturday, June 11, 2016 and Saturday, June 25, 2016 are open.
Please let me know how you wish to proceed.

Hi Hilary, Happy New Year! I sent the following message to Janel, and received her out of the office message. Not sure how long she is out for but figured I would send the message to you too.
I hope all is well with you on the beautiful shores of clear lake. After another great year and a fun/successful car show, we are hoping to hold our show on park street again this year. I have filled out all the forms and included a check for $15 today and
will be putting it in the mail to send to you this afternoon. We are hoping to hold our show on Saturday June 18th, 2016. I put a note in the insurance area on the form, indicating in the past we have not purchased the insurance until after we have had the permit approved by the city. we will be using the same insurance company and have the same coverage as last year.
please let me know when you have received the application and if anything else is needed to proceed.
Thanks,

Greetings, gang. If you’ve not been notified yet our first Winefest planning session will take
place next Wed., Jan. 27 at Doug More’s home, 3644 Crestwood Dr., in Riviera
West at 3:30 PM. Please advise if you can or cannot attend. Please note also that while the
Air Cooled Car Club beat us to the punch last year in signing up for our traditional date, we
registered earlier this year. Last year we suggested that the two events might be mutually
supportive, but that request was denied so we had to take a later date. This year the city tells
us that they have now registered the Car Club on our date, so we’ll share parts of Library
Park. I still think the two will work well together but think we should appoint someone to
coordinate with them. Please add this as an agenda item. See you Wednesday.

STAFF REPORT
RE: Minor Revisions to Zoning Ordinance to Improve
Transparency & Streamline Permit Processing Procedures
MEETING DATE: 02/2/2016
SUBMITTED BY: Kevin M. Ingram, Community Development Director
PURPOSE OF REPORT: Information only Discussion Action Item
WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/BOARD:
The City Council is being asked to conduct a public hearing to consider minor revisions to the Lakeport Zoning
Ordinance aimed at increasing transparency and streamlining the processing of land use development permits.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
In 2003, the City of Lakeport surveyed local residents and businesses as part of the preparation of the City of
Lakeport Business Retention and Recruitment Strategy. Those businesses interviewed cited, amongst other
things, that “last minute changes to approved project plans” and “limited or poor communication about City
policies, expectations, and activities” were a serious concern. Although more than ten years have passed, the
concerns expressed in this survey remain relevant today. Relevant in the fact that they are included within the
Economic Development Element of the General Plan and are frequently expressed still by the local business
community.
To partially address these concerns, Community Development Department (CDD) staff has prepared a series of
small amendments to the City’s zoning ordinance in order to improve transparency in its administrative approval
of discretionary land use development permits and improve the streamlining by which the Planning Division
accepts and reviews land use development applications.
These changes were first reviewed by the Planning Commission at a their regular meeting of November 18, 2015
and then again at legally noticed public hearing before the Planning Commission on December 9, 2015. At the
conclusion of the December 9, 2015 public hearing the Planning Commission by unanimous vote made a
recommendation that the City Council approve the presented minor revisions to the zoning ordinance.
On January 5, 2016 the aforementioned revisions to the Zoning Ordinance were introduced and an opportunity
for public comment was provided. Following discussion, the City Council made a motion to introduce the
proposed Zoning Ordinance and a public hearing was scheduled for January 19, 2016 and then rescheduled to
February 2, 2016. The City Clerk prepared a legal notice that was published in the Record-Bee and Lake County
News.
The key components of the proposed revisions can be separated into two parts and be summarized as follows:
A. Revisions pertaining the improving transparency within the Administrative Approval process
Meeting Date: February 2, 2016 Page 1 Agenda Item #VI.A.
-
8/20/2019 020216 Lakeport City Council agenda packet
32/325
The zoning ordinance provides the community development director the authority to approve certain
discretionary land use development permits. These allowances permit the administrative approval of:
shoreline development permits, minor exceptions to development and design standards, and administrative
& minor architectural and design review.
The City of Lakeport Zoning Ordinance currently allows for the filing of appeals of administratively approved
permits per Section 17.31.030. This section allows for the Planning Commission to review administratively
approved permits if an appeal is filed within five (5) business days of a decision. However, other than in the
case of the issuance of zoning permits, there is no mechanism required for the notification of the public of apending administrative approval action.
To remedy this situation CDD staff is recommending that adjoining property owners to any property where
the administrative approval of a discretionary land use development is being considered be notified a
minimum of ten (10) days in advance of any decision by the community development director. If any
adjoining property owner takes issue with the approval they may seek an automatic review of the action by
the Planning Commission. Notification of adjoining property owners, in staff’s opinion strikes a balance
between the current ‘no’ notification system of most administratively approved projects and the standard
notification procedures for public hearings outlined in Section 17.30.030 which require a formal legal notice
placed in the newspaper of record and distributed by mail to all property owners within 300’ of the
proposed project.
Affected chapters of the Zoning Ordinance Include: Regulations for Clear Lake Shoreline Development (SD)
Combining District (Chapter 17.18), Minor Exceptions (Chapter 17.25), Architectural and Design Review
(Chapter 17.27), and Performance Standards (Chapter 17.28).
B. Proposed Amendments to the Land Use applications procedures process:
A Chief complaint from the business community in regards to the City’s land use development process is the
length in application processing time and a perceived last minute changes to approved project plans. The
California Permit Streaming Act (Government Code §65920 et. seq.) requires that within thirty (30) days of
the receipt of a land use development application, a local agency make a determination as to the
completeness of the application. If an application is determined to not be complete, an incomplete
notification and a request for additional information is required to be provided to the applicant in writing.
Although consistent with the requirements of the state permit streaming act, the current City of Lakeport
land use application processing procedures outlined in Section 17.29.030 of the Zoning Ordinance contains
an extra step in the permitting process that is not present within the development procedures of most other
local jurisdictions. At current, project application packets are submitted to the CDD for review of the
completeness of the application for a thirty day period. Once an application package is determined to be
complete it is then circulated for review to other Federal, State and local agencies with regulatory or
permitting issuance jurisdiction over projects.
Upon review of several other local jurisdictions land use application review procedures it was noted that the
internal review period by the Planning Division and the period in which project applications are reviewed byother Federal, State and local agencies are typically combined together in one step as a means of streaming
the permitting process and reducing ambiguity in development requirement expectations. CDD staff
believes the combining of this process within Lakeport’s land use development process will aid in reducing
the processing time of land use development permits and assist in the building of trust with the business
and development community through the reduction in perceived last minute changes in requirements for
land use development permits. Additionally staff believes the combining of these two permit processing
steps is more consistent with the spirit and intent of the California Permit and Streaming Act.

In composing the proposed amendments to the land use development application procedures of Section
17.29 of the Zoning Ordinance, City staff consulted the development codes of: the County of Lake, Butte
County, Town of Windsor, City of Calistoga and City of Grass Valley.
Proposed Zoning Ordinance amendments affect Section 17.29 (Applications and Fees).
OPTIONS:
1. After conducting the public hearing, and consideration of the proposed minor revisions to the Zoning
Ordinance, adopt the proposed Ordinance as presented by staff.
