K1. Verbal Update on the North Eastern Sphere Annexation Project.
Mayor Michael introduced City Manager Gillison who gave an update on the North Eastern Sphere Annexation
Project.
City Manager Gillison reported that based on the feedback received from the community meetings held and the
direction previously received from the City Council to evaluate a revised proposal with lower density zoning and
reduced commercial zoning he is recommending a new round of community outreach efforts for the annexation
project. Additionally, he reported that a new law came into effect, SB743, regarding CEQA and traffic studies, and
that new legislation will also need to be considered and incorporated for any type of development.
Mr. Gillison clarified that there is zero-multi housing development proposed and that the City is not proposing high
density or low income housing. He added that the needs of the community were heard, which include single family
residential zoning, maintaining low density, matching the lots to the current surrounding area and having a
Neighborhood Commercial Zone.
Mr. Gillison recommended the City conduct a new community outreach effort to include community meetings and
polling's and will return in May to the City Council to share the results. At that time, staff would also recommend
receiving direction from the City Council. Mr. Gillison stated that once that is done he foresees returning to the
City Council until January 2019 with a proposal to meet the goals addressed.
City Manager Gillison clarified that the project is not driven by any developer and that the proposal can be revised
if desired. The City if looking to receive input and consider various options and return with a revised plan to the
City Council. Mr. Gillison also clarified that the annexation project would allow the City to have the ability to
approve or deny projects for that area.
In response to Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy's inquiry, City Manager Gillison responded that a draft FAQ's section is
on the City's website for the project and will be updated as new information develops.

City Manager Gillison reported that the annexation area includes about 4,300 acres and 2/3 of that area has been
set aside for open space and the Equestrian Overlay area would still apply.
Mayor Michael inquired on what area is County owned.
City Manager Gillison responded that County Flood Control owns the land mostly to the north and east of Osos
High School and that in the past the County has initiated a process to develop that area but is now considered
surplus land.
Mayor Michael stated that if we want to control the destiny for the City we should control what is being done in that
area.
Council Member Williams thanked staff for looking at this project and hearing the community. She also stated that
she is in support of local control for that area and spoke on not removing the equestrian lifestyle and having a
small commercial piece element.
Council Member Alexander thanked Mr. Gillison for a well-done presentation and for his explanation.
Mayor Michael thanked Mr. Gillison for his report.
Hearing no concerns on his recommendation, Mr. Gillison advised that he will proceed with a community outreach
effort.
