Housing Element
San Luis Obispo’s Housing Element plays a crucial role in determining the
future planning of the city. It addresses changes in housing law that occurs in
the state of California. In the San Luis Obispo Housing Element, documents
show that they want to provide safe and secure housing for the extremely low,
very low, low and moderate incomes, by creating financial assistance for the
construction of affordable homes. They also want to be more environmentally
friendly through the integration of smart growth in the housing policy.
In San Luis Obispo the lack of housing stock, jobs housing mismatch,
the artificial growth boundary (greenbelt), NIMBY’s, and students are all
contributors to the need for affordable housing in the city. Increasing the stock
of housing, more specifically affordable housing is one of the highest goals of
the housing element.
Due to San Luis Obispo’s goal of growth management, there is a present
growth rate of 1% per year (maximum). With a city estimated to have a
population of 56,750 by the year 2029 and an additional population increase
of 5,000 students at Cal Poly, there is great demand for additional housing.
However the types of housing styles vary by need.
Overpayment is a major problem in San Luis Obispo. Due to the fact that the
city is composed of mostly renters, landlords and owners can set prices higher
than the value of the rental. This creates problems in terms of affordability and
results in greater monthly rents.
Parks & Recreation
The purpose of the San Luis Obispo Parks and Recreation Element and Master
Plan is ultimately to evaluate and assess the current and future park and
recreation needs like security, waste disposal, landscaping etc. Identify what
the exact goals and objectives of the recreational parks should be. Creating
policies and programs to help establish community within the parks and
recreation department, encouraging people to go outside and be active.
With the creation of policies, the establishment of a short or long range
implementation needs to be incorporated into the parks and rec master plan.
Finally, the plan provides funding mechanisms to ensure our facilities and
programs keep pace with our changing community.
Management of city-acquired and publicly accessible open space has become
a function of the Parks and Recreation Department. As of December 2000,
City open space included 1,669 acres located both within and outside city
limits. Meaning that open space opens up to the public for recreational trails,
widening the conglomeration of trails and hiking trails in the area. The overall
goal of the SLO Parks and Recreation Department is the facilities and programs
will enable all citizens to participate in fun, healthful, or enriching activities
which enhance the quality of life in the community while conserving resources
as much as possible. Recreation services shall enhance the quality of life in San
Luis Obispo and meet the changing needs of the active residents.

Land Use Element
The Urban Reserve Line of San Luis Obispo is a boundary separating urban
development from suburban development rural land. This boundary is a
reflection of the values of the San Luis Obispo community, which include the
importance of protecting open space and maintaining a separation between
developed and undeveloped land. There are numerous policies in the Land Use
Element of the SLO General Plan which supplement the Urban Reserve Line
and support the separation of developed and undeveloped land.
To be consistent with these policies, any proposed development, including
the Madonna on LOVR Specific Plan should essentially preserve any currently
undeveloped land outside of the Urban Reserve Line. Some appropriate uses
within the greenbelt include agriculture, parks and outdoor recreation, and
some rural residential development.
The City of San Luis Obispo will manage the growth of the city’s housing
supply so that it does not exceed one percent per year, excluding dwelling
units affordable to residents with low incomes as defined by the Housing
Element. This rate of growth may continue as long as the City’s basic service
capacity is assured. Approved specific plan areas may develop in accordance
with the phasing schedule adopted by each specific plan provided thresholds
established are not exceeded.
The relevant requirements for commercial buildings include that they be
developed in areas where the slope of the land is less than 10%, and that they
have access from collector and arterial streets. The area may also be suitable
for regional attractions including tourism and related facilities (hotels, etc.)
Subdivision Regulations
General Development:
- Generally, side lot lines will be perpendicular to the street, unless it is on a
curved portion of a street, resulting in the side lot lines being radial. Lot lines
need to be appropriately designed around topographical features (top/bottom
of slopes, creek banks, etc.).
- Lots with a depth-to-width ratio of greater than three are not permitted.
- The city discourages multiple frontages single family lots, unless the residence
is on a corner
- The city may require dedication and improvement of alleys to serve as rear
access to parcels in industrial, commercial, and residential subdivisions.
Hillside Development
- Keep a low profile and conform to the natural slopes;
- Minimize grading on individual lots; generally, locate houses close to the
street; minimize the grading of visible driveways;
- Include planting which is compatible with native hillside vegetation and which
provides a visual transition from developed to open areas;
- The grading plan shall ensure that development near or on portions of a hill
or mountain do not cause, or make worse, natural hazards (such as erosion,
sedimentation, fire, or water quality concerns);

6
Subdivision Regulations Cont.
Creekside Development
- Creeks and their corridors are to be preserved as open space, and creek
corridors are to be maintained in essentially a natural state to protect the
community’s water quality, wildlife diversity, and aesthetic value.
- Developments along creeks should include public access across the
development site to the creek and along the creek; provided, that wildlife
habitat, public safety, and reasonable privacy and security of the development
can be maintained.
- Sensitive habitat, creek corridors and creek setback areas should be protected
by preserving such resource areas and associated habitat buffers through
easements.
- Solar access should be preserved through the creation of easements
preventing development. Easements will be required under the following
situations:
1. A plan for building construction and landscaping is approved in
conjunction with the subdivision approval, and the plan will provide an
acceptable level of solar exposure, as provided in the energy element of the
general plan
2. The size and shape of the parcels together with the yard and height
restrictions of the zoning regulations will allow subsequent development of
each parcel in a way which will not eliminate acceptable solar exposure for
neighboring parcels within the subdivision
3. The subdivision is a condominium conversion
Bike Plan
Until San Luis Obispo’s first revision of the Bicycle Transportation plan in
1993, the city did not have any bicycle parking standards. Since then, the city
has encouraged bicycle transportation by implementing short and long-term
bicycle parking and facilities, “whenever a new structure is erected or enlarged
or whenever a new use is established which requires a total of 10 or more
vehicle parking spaces.” The cities plan for short-term bicycle parking mainly
involves the installment of bike racks/lockers.
In response to this plan, the site of Los Osos and Madonna will have to plan
on installing these bike racks at every commercial building parking area. The
site will have two city approved rack options to choose from after the amount
of bike parking spots is estimated. There are only two city approved bike racks
that meet the design guidelines outlined in the Bicycle Transportation plan.
Bikelane Classifications
-- Class I Bikeway (Bike Path): “The minimum paved width for a two-way bike
path shall be 8 feet...”
-- Class II Bikeway (Bike Lane): “... if no gutter exists, the minimum bike lane
width shall be 4 feet. With a normal 2-foot gutter, the minimum bike lane
width shall be 5 feet.
-- Class III Bikeway (Bike Route): minimum widths are not presented in the
HDM. The County BAC recommends a minimum 1.5’ paved shoulder beyond
the edge of traveled way.

History
The native people of the area are the Chumash Native Americans, whose
tribe dates over 9000 years ago. There aren’t any indications the site has
direct ties to the tribe, though considerations should be taken throughout the
development process in the case such ties are found.
The Spanish Colonization and Mission Period occurred between 1772-1834,
symbolized by the construction of Mission San Luis Obispo in 1772. The
development of the mission brought many cattle ranchers to the area. Once
Mexico gained independence from Spain in 1821, many land grants were given
to cattle ranchers in the area. The treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848 granted
U.S. citizenship to the Mexican ranchers. These ranchers held much of the land
in the area and would sell off their land over the years.
Mr. L. Nelson would acquire over 500 acres including the land which
encompasses our site. In 1890 John Froom leased this land to run a dairy. He
ended up marrying Mrs. Froom who inherited the land in 1904. One of their
sons, Bill Froom, would continue to operate the dairy until 1977 when he sold
the land to Alex Madonna, ending the 150+ year run of the working ranch.
After acquiring the land, Alex Madonna envisioned 80 acres to be developed
into a business park, restaurants, motels, and an auto dealership. His vision
would be denied by the city only to have land directly north of his developed
for these same purposes.
The main street around our site, Los Osos Valley Road, has connected Los Osos
to San Luis Obispo since at least 1877. Highway 101 brings the vast amount of
people through the area and lies just south of the site.
Conservation of Open Space
Open Space
The goal behind open space is to preserve and protect “valuable natural and
agricultural resources” with an emphasis on creeks, grasslands, wetlands,
habitats and corridors, prime agricultural land, rock outcroppings, and unique
plant and animal communities. Open space must have significant and “wildlife
compatible” buffers and setbacks between the open space and activity areas
particularly with sensitive habitats or species. Non-vehicular public access is
allowed on some open space; however, allowing access must not harm the
resources or communities in the area.
Air and Energy
The general plan promotes walking, biking, and public transit as well as
implementing programs to reduce single occupant gas vehicle trips. For new
developments that general plan says land use design should be utilized in order
to help reduce single occupant gas vehicle trips. Finally, new technologies
should be used that produce the least amount of air pollutants. In efforts to
minimize energy usage, buildings should be orientated to utilize natural lighting
and cooling. Buildings should also be orientated for solar panel use.

8
Conservation of Open Space Cont.
Water
Development on the Madonna at LOVR site introduces risks of pollution
to both surface water and groundwater due to an increase of impervious
surfaces, like concrete and asphalt. The general plan calls for altering existing
drainage patterns and incorporating water holding areas into urban landscape
for groundwater retention. Permeable surfaces should be used as hardscape.
Community design should be compact, mixed use, walkable, and transit
oriented so that automobile generated urban runoff pollutants are minimized
and open lands that preserve water are maximized.
Natural Communities
Natural communities onsite, habitats and corridors especially for any species
listed under the Endangered Species Act must be preserved and protected.
Corridors connecting habitats must also be connected without disruption by
humans. Fifty percent of the site must be devoted to open space. The plan
should look to include areas with natural ecotone and significant trees to be
preserved as part of the open space designation. Landscaping on the site shall
include the appropriate native plants and replace any non-native, invasive
species in the area.
Market Trends
Currently political control for the site remains with the county but a specific
plan for low-density family housing has been made by the City of San Luis
Obispo. When development begins on site, political control will be transferred
over to the City of San Luis Obispo.
Property is in demand due to reduced inventory, as there are more potential
buyers and sellers, which make for a soft seller’s market. Due to the high
demand, property is often sold for above the listed price. Currently, however,
there is a large supply of low to medium income residential housing but
the demand for more is so high that the site should continue this trend.
Infrastructure on and off the site is so strong that there will be a minimum cost
for linkages.
Large markets trends include housing for students, senior living, middle-
income families, and tourism.
In general, San Luis Obispo’s population has decreased 3.8 percent from last
year due to the higher cost of living in town compared to the surrounding
municipalities. Having a cost of living of about $51,000 it is still 22.5 percent
lower than the state average. The average home price is almost $660,000,
which forces many people to commute into town. With people commuting to
and from San Luis Obispo, it has an unemployment rate of 4.9 percent, which
is 1.2 percent lower than the state’s level. Affordable residential units for
some of the workers of the area would be optimal. To optimize residential and
commercial uses, mixed use buildings would be efficient and appropriate to
the area.

9
Circulation
The city aims to continue and develop policies and programs regarding traffic
reduction objectives. The city encourages businesses to work with commuters
and work schedules to reduce the number of trips they generate and improve
peak hour level of service. These programs are mostly incentivized, and focus
of ridesharing and alternative forms of transportation.
San Luis Obispo requires streets be designed as complete, comfortable, safe
and convenient for all modes of transportation, and strive for the highest levels
of service for each. However, the plan recognizes different locations of the city
demand different priorities be placed on certain modes of transportation.
The city has invested mainly in the development of a high functioning bus
system focused on convenience, cost effective, and speed. The city aims to
coordinate with the regional bus line to increase long-range ridership, provide
transit stops with ¼ a mile of all businesses and residence, and incentivize
development of businesses or medium-high residential uses within 1/8th of a
mile of transit services.
The city attempts to create complete pedestrian network connections between
residential areas and activity centers/trails to open space. The city also asks the
most investment goes into areas where pedestrian activity is likely and would
optimize use
The city requires the Access and Parking Management Plan be updated every
five years, and consider best practices, such as, unbundled parking, smart
parking technologies and cash out programs. The city defines the standards for
parking spaces, and provides appropriate data before making parking related
requirements/developments (Parking Garages).

1.2 | SWOT Analysis
Strengths
Unique topographical conditions and Irish Hills as a backdrop
provide uniqueness and visual attractiveness. Beautiful
out-views from site.

Human Scale
Human scale refers to the relation between humans and the built
environment. Building details, building height, pavement texture, street trees,
and street furniture are all physical elements that contribute to human scale.
It is essential that the building widths should be in proportion with buildings
heights. Distance also plays a role in human scale. For example at 1,000-1,800
ft humans can identify other people as humans instead of objects. From 80-
360 ft individual characteristics and body language can be observed. At less
than 25 meters, people enter a “social” field of vision where richness of detail
and communication intensify dramatically meter by meter. Playing off of these
human qualities, the built environment can ensure human comfort as visitors
move from space to space.
Key Features:
- Proportionality between structural base and height
- Integrated architectural features across building facades
- Established relationship between public and private spaces
- Intentional design for visitor comfort and ease
- “Cool with a K” - Vicente Del Rio
Multi-Modal Transit and Complete Streets
Improving the physical circulation system of the city can include implementing
sidewalks, streets, paths, urban trails, bicycle routes, bridges and highways
that are legible and easy for the city’s inhabitants to navigate through. Utilizing
street signs that are easily understandable by all people is also one of the
important things that should be considered. Effective signage provides a
visual linkage between areas and eases wayfinding to landmarks and transit.
This allows residents and visitors to move about the city, community, or
neighborhood more comfortably and efficiently. For example, Charlotte’s
population growth increased its overall need for a higher transportation
capacity. Construction of well-integrated road systems, paths, and transit
routes, that encourage and allow for different modes of movement in
and around the city, will allow air quality and mode choice to improve.
Implementation of this principle on the project site will create a well designed
and efficient circulation system that enhances the vibrancy of the city.
Key Features:
- Signaled crosswalks
- ADA accessible sidewalks
- Mid-block pedestrian crossings
- Clear separation of right-of-way
- Bike lanes
- Strong-wayfinding

21
Conservation of Natural Resources and Open Space
Well designed places need to balance hardscaped urban areas with softer,
natural landscapes. Open spaces in and around cities “provide access, light,
air and the setting for buildings” (Planning Guidance). Nature and open spaces
also aid in improving the well-being of a city’s citizen, another key urban design
principle. Socially, and physical health wise, open spaces provide places for
interaction and activity that can serve as a reprieve from the mundane, car-
centric society planners are trying to move away from. In many cities, such
as Salt Lake City and St. Paul, planners are looking toward opportunities to
reclaim natural features that were once dominated by industrial and heavier
urban uses (Brown, pp. 110).
Key Features:
- Conservation of natural spaces
- Nature restoration
- Public access
Variety
The mixing of uses is key to the development of active streetfronts and
connected communities. As variety of form and use increases, other key urban
design principles like Kevin Lynch’s access, fit, efficiency, etc. are naturally
emphasized as the built environment denisifies to bring land uses together.
When commercial, residential, open spaces, and public facilities are located
in close proximity to one another a functioning urban core is formed from
increased social and economic activity. Mixing land uses in urban centers
measurably increases property values, general societal happiness, further
redevelopment potential, a sense of place and community, and greater
environmental and economic resiliency. Alternatively when land uses are
isolated, automobile dependency skyrockets and social interaction between
residents drops off as rising utility costs disincentives trip formation.
Key Features:
- Differentiation of uses
- Increased density
- Multimodal optionality
- Architectural diversity
- Strong private-public connections
- Jobs-Housing balance

22
Interactiveness
The ultimate reason why planning is important is to create great cities and
places that enhance the lives of those that live in them. There are many ways
in which the built environment directly affects the live happiness and well-
being of the people that live in them. For example, a Swedish study found that
people who commute longer than 45 minutes were 40% more likely to divorce.
One of the most important things to human beings is their social networks and
interactions that keep them connected with others. Certain forms of the city
can be conducive to these types of interactions while others can discourage
or otherwise hinder them. Any design features of the proposed project should
ensure that the happiness and well-being of those that live in the community
will be maintained or enhanced.
Key Features:
- Activated streetfronts
- Social interaction
- Widened sidewalks
- Mixed uses

23
Case Study: Village Homes
Designed and planned well before the smart growth and new urbanist
movements, Village Homes was meant to create a unique sense of community,
as well as maintain a sustainable environment for those that live in it. The
goals of Village Homes were to “design a neighborhood which would reduce
the amount of energy required to carry out the family’s daily activities, and
establish a sense of community” (Francis, 26).
The central focus in the design of the layout of Village Homes is open space,
around which a residential area is organized. There are a variety of open
spaces in the community including private gardens, common areas, agricultural
lands, turf areas for sports, and landscaped areas. The pedestrian and bicycle
circulation system is separate from the vehicle circulation system, and was
laid out first. This system makes it easier to walk or bike throughout the
community than to drive, and the greatest travel time from one point within
the community to another is five minutes.
Location: Davis, California
Size: 60 acres
Population: 650 Residents

Case Study: Mizner Park
The project is two city blocks on both sides of a grand central public park/open
space. Conceived as a neo traditional downtown, the project involves four
main mixed-use buildings facing each other across the park and public space to
create a visually uninterrupted ambiance. No single-use, stand- alone buildings
were planned on this development; any use that can be placed on an upper
floor such as offices, housing, or cinemas have been located there; all ground-
floor space is used either for retail or for entrances.
Two-thirds of the Mizner Park site is devoted to public areas, such as the
amphitheater, broad arcade walkways, and the park/village green, which is
dotted with gazebos, benches, and fountains. There are also outdoor dining
plazas and apartment balconies overlooking activities below.
Location: Boca Raton, Florida
Size: Mizner Park is 27.8 acres

Case Study: University Village
University Village at Thousand Oaks is a comprehensive retirement community
located in Thousand Oaks California, adjacent to the California Lutheran
University campus. About 500 residents live on the 65 acre campus, which
features a variety of facilities to cater to the community. These facilities include
dining rooms, a library, fitness center, theater, computer room, pool, tennis
court, bank, and recreational open spaces.
Residents of University Village are given long-term care and support services,
which include medical care, house cleaning, laundry service, maintenance,
security protection, and the arrangement of appointments and activities.
Location: Thousand Oaks, California
Size: 65+ acres
Population: ~500
Architects: Perkins Eastman
Year: 2000
Land Use: variety of senior housing, including villas, garden terrace residences
and apartment homes, resident and community facilities (dining, lounge,
library, recreation, theater, garden, fitness)
Case Study: Celebration, FL
Originally conceived by the Walt Disney Company as a community just outside
of their Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, Celebration was very much
rooted in New Urbanist ideals. Land uses in the downtown district were mixed
to encourage alternate transportation. Bicycle and walking trails are strung
throughout the city to facilitate active lifestyles. Open space was preserved,
particularly on the outer rim of the city, to give Celebration a natural buffer
to the highway running on the north side of town. Lastly, housing uses were
varied to accommodate all sorts of homeowners.
Unfortunately, Celebration has flopped in providing an affordable and desirable
place to live. Stringent regulatory measures are in place to discourage long-
term rental units. Moreover, the downtown has lost many of its retailers,
leaving a good number of storefronts empty.
Location: 22 miles southwest of Orlando, Florida
Size: ~10 square miles
Founded: 1994
Estimated Cost: 2.5 Billion US Dollars
Planning/Construction: 1990-1996
Land Uses: ~4,100 Housing Units, ~60 acre Hospital/Medical Center, Education,
Office, and Assorted Retail

Case Study: Santana Row
Located only 3.5 miles from downtown San Jose, Santana Row stands as a
prime example of a high density mixed use planned community project. The
one billion dollar project was a result of San Joses 2020 General Plan that
emphasizes further economic development and to generate a more robust and
stable tax base.
The main point of the development was to create a unique mix of shopping,
dining, entertainment and living designed to enhance the individual
experience. The backbone of the project is a 1,500-foot Mediterranean main
street with curbside landscaping, wide sidewalks and intimate seating areas.
Urban lofts with ground floor retail line the main street and green spaces and
high-quality landscaping are woven into the pedestrian streetscape.
Location: San Jose, California
Size: 43 Acres
Population: 1,200 Luxury Rental Units
Designed by: SB Architects
Year: 2002
Land Uses: 1,200 apartments, 680,000 sq retail space, 214 room boutique
hotel, 5,200 parking spaces
Case Study: Orenco Station
The Orenco Station is a community in Hillsboro, Oregon, that is centered
around a light-rail station served by the Portland METRO system. The
community is primarily mixed-use in the center of the community, with more
residential uses on the periphery. The developer and the planners of the city
of Hillsboro worked to turn the former commercial nursery into a high-density
TOD community. The plans called for much narrower streets (20 feet) to
promote walking as a primary form of everyday transportation. Additionally,
many residential lots have a maximum setback to increase residential densities,
up to 18 units-per-acre.
Location: Neighborhood in east-central Hillsboro, OR
Size: 209 acres
Population: ~2600
Designed by: Capacity Commercial Group
Year: 1993
Land Uses: ~1,800 housing units, town center, transit stop, mixed-use
buildings, parks, restaurants, and other retail uses

Vision Statement
The Irish Hills Ranch will complete the developed Los Osos Valley Road corridor
with attractive retail shops, provide much needed housing for the San Luis
Obispo community, as well as create a base for outdoor recreational activities
within the Irish Hills Natural Preserve. The Specific Plan will utilize surrounding
infrastructure and commercial development to create a more attractive and
welcoming neighborhood for both residents and the greater San Luis Obispo
community to enjoy.

siting buildings and infrastructure.
- Provide a mixture of uses and building sizes where appropriate.
Goal: Land Use
- Provide access to and from the site for multiple modes of transportation.
- Establish strong connections between the existing trail system and new
development.
- Provide access to the site from multiple access points.
Goal: Circulation
- New development should maintain San Luis Obispo’s small town character
and identity.
- Provide a variety of housing options for all socio-economic statuses.
- Maintain consistency with the surrounding architectural style, as well as
existing regulations and neighborhood sentiments.
Goal: Neighborhood Form
- Improve landscaping and encourage variety and quality of public spaces.
- Restore and incorporate existing historical structures into quality public
amenities.
- Maintain the visual character and quality of the natural environment on the

3.2| Land Use
Intent

The Land Use Chapter of the Irish Hills Ranch Specific Plan presents the Land Use Plan and describes and illustrates the
desired form, character, and uses of the Plan Area. The illustrations and examples in this Chapter represent the vision for
a complete neighborhood form connected by an open space network. The entire site is City’s greenbelt, but within the
City’s sphere of influence and identified for future development.

As proposed, the land uses and densities are consistent with the City of San Luis Obispo General Plan Land Use Element,
configured to meet the goals and objectives of the Irish Hills Ranch Specific Plan. These goals and objectives also work
within the existing land use constraints, including agricultural preservation, the airport, wetlands, wildlife, and floodplain.

This chapter also outlines the general policies and objectives for Irish Hills Ranch as established in the City’s Land Use
Element.
Objective 1: Consider the Urban Reserve Boundary and limit the spread of development into surrounding open spaces.
Policy 1.1: A minimum of 50% of the site must be reserved as open space.
Policy 1.2: No development shall occur past Froom Creek.
Policy 1.3: Any development outside of the Urban Reserve Boundary shall be fully compliant with the City of San
Luis Obispo’s General Plan requirements.
Objective 2: Respect the environment, including landforms and wildlife, when siting buildings and infrastructure.
Policy 2.1: Froom Creek’s existing creekbed shall be restored and reinforced to protect against future floods while
still providing a natural habitat for native species.
Policy 2.2: The bio-swale adjacent to Los Osos Valley Road shall be continued along the edge of the site.
Policy 2.3: Existing trees shall be either preserved on site or moved to another appropriate location.
Objective 3: Provide a mixture of uses and building sizes where appropriate.
Policy 3.1: A dense, mixed-use core shall be established to provide amenities for both residents of the site and
incoming shoppers.
Policy 3.2: Residential densities shall decrease from high density to low density moving south through the site
from the mixed-use core.
Policy 3.3: Commercial uses shall be located in close proximity to existing commercial uses adjacent to the site.
Land Use Categories:
Conservation/Open Space: The C/OS zone will be applied to areas most suitable for open space uses because of
topography, geology, vegetation, soils, wildlife habitat, scenic prominence, agricultural value or flood hazard. The C/
OS zone is intended to prevent exposure or urban development to unacceptable risks posed by natural hazards and to
protect natural resources from disruptive alterations. To these ends, it is further intended to prevent the subdivision of
such lands.

Commercial: The C-R zone is intended to provide for a wide range of retail sales, business, personal and professional
services, as well as recreation, entertainment, transient lodging and some residential uses. The land uses allowed in this
zone will serve the entire community and the region, as well as tourists and travelers. The C-R zone implements and is
consistent with the general retail land use category of the general plan, and is intended to be applied primarily to areas
with more public exposure on arterial streets than those reserved for manufacturing.

29
High Density Residential: The R-4 zone is intended to provide housing opportunities for smaller households desiring little
private open space and to provide various types of group housing. It is further intended to allow for the provision of
housing in close proximity to concentrations of employment and college enrollment, in areas largely designated R-4.
Medium-High Density Residential: The R-3 zone is intended primarily to provide housing opportunities for smaller
households desiring little private open space and to provide various types of group housing. These areas are generally
close to commercial and public facilities serving the whole community and generally committed to this type of
development.
Low Density Residential: The R-1 zone is intended primarily to provide housing opportunities for people who want a
private open space associated with individual dwellings. It is intended to preserve existing single-family neighborhoods,
provide for compatible infill development in such areas, and prescribe the overall character of newly subdivided low-
density areas.
Public Facility: The P-F zone is intended to provide for the wide range of public uses likely to be located on public
property. Public uses are those conducted by governmental or nonprofit agencies. However, this zone will also provide
for complementary private and commercial uses which, within the overall guidance of the general plan, provide a public
benefit. The zone is further intended to protect neighboring private uses from potentially incompatible public uses.
Mixed-Use: The M-U overlay zone, in combination with any other zone, requires a mix of residential and nonresidential
uses on the same site, where mixed use development would otherwise be optional. The primary purpose of the MU
overlay is to provide a means for the city to identify areas where the public health, safety, and welfare will be enhanced
by requiring that all allowed development be in the form of mixed use projects, where ground floor street frontages
are occupied by retail, business or personal services uses with residential uses above, or to the rear of a site. The MU
overlay is intended to promote a compact city, to provide additional housing opportunities (including affordable housing
opportunities), which is the first priority, and to reduce auto travel by providing services, jobs, and housing in proximity.
The city desires the safety provided by having residential components in commercial areas.
Housing Solution:
In order to comply with the City of San Luis Obispo’s Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) while maintaining
the small town feel of the City, development within the plan area shall represent a wide range of housing typologies,
consistent with the zoning designations above. Residential density on the site should increase with increased proximity
to the proposed mixed use core, while gradually phasing to lower densities toward the Highway 101 corridor. This is to
ensure a wide range of housing sizes, pricing, and visual flow through the site.

Intent

The Neighborhood Form section of the Irish Hills Ranch Specific Plan is designed to provide guidelines for the visual form
of future development within the plan area. The goal of this section is to provide the user an understanding of the design
elements required to keep new development consistent with the urban context of San Luis Obispo while enhancing the
built environment to better comply with the urban design principles laid out in chapter 2 of this document.
Objective 1: New development should maintain San Luis Obispo’s small town character and identity.
Policy 1.1: All new development must comply with existing land use regulations underneath the San Luis Obispo
General Plan.
Policy 1.2: Adjacent parcels shall not shall not exceed twice another adjacent parcel’s FAR without a change in
land use designation.
Policy 1.3: Multi-storied buildings must preserve view corridors irregardless of maximum allowable height.
Objective 2: Provide a variety of housing options for all socio-economic statuses.
Policy 2.1: All residential development within the plan area shall comply with minimum and maximum densities
laid out herein according to their individual land uses.
Policy 2.2: New housing developments on-site shall offer a diverse selection of housing styles, including variation
in size, number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and amenities.
Policy 2.3: New development projects within the plan area shall provide a variety of housing prices.
Objective 3: Maintain consistency with surrounding architectural styles, as well as regulatory and neighborhood
sentiments.
Policy 3.1: Adjacent parcels with similar uses shall maintain a consistent visual theme.
Policy 3.2: Architectural and decorative elements should embrace local artistry by utilizing materials and
furnishings from regional suppliers.
Policy 3.3: Development within the plan area must consider neighborhood sentiment by making project plans
available for public comment prior to submittal for architectural review.
Development Standards by Land Use Designation:
1) Commercial
Commercial structures are key to the effective operation of any City. By conveniently providing access to essential goods
and services, activating street fronts, and providing opportunity for social interaction commercial uses make up the
backbone of the regional economy and enhance the urban environment.
Standards
a. Commercial structures shall be street facing, unless deemed allowable by vote of the Planning Commission.
b. Commercial parcels shall encourage varied facades, irregardless of number of tenants.
2) Low Density Residential
Low Density Residential uses serve as a buffer region from the surrounding neighborhoods into the urban core of the
plan area. They are important for creating diversity in population makeup and diversity in housing options.
Standards

38
a. Adjacent housing units shall have a consistent visual theme, which shall be consistent with following
architectural and design guidelines.
b. Housing developments shall incorporate a mixture of 2, 3, and 4 bedroom homes to encourage diversity.
3) Medium Density Residential
Medium density housing serves to further diversity in housing options and typology while again acting as a visual
transition from lower-density uses to the plan-area’s central core.
Standards
a. Medium density residential designations shall have attached dwelling units that are street facing.
b. Housing units shall have ground floor parking spaces available for resident use.
c. Medium density developments shall create visual tiering between adjacent uses with varying built heights.
4) High Density Residential
High density residential uses serve to activate the urban core areas by congregating residents. These zones create vibrant
neighborhoods and help San Luis Obispo achieve job-housing balance.
Standards
a. High-density residential designations shall include a variety of studio, 1, and 2 bedroom housing units
b. High-density residential uses shall include access to open and community spaces.
5) Mixed Use
Mixed-Uses are the core of the plan area. These varied uses serve jointly as commercial-retail, office, and residential
uses and help to create a pleasant and active downtown core.
Standards
a. Ground floor of any mixed use designations shall consist of either commercial-retail or office uses.
b. Similarly to commercial designations, mixed use structures shall have varied facades irregardless of tenants.
c. Upper floors of any mixed use structure shall consist of office and/or residential uses.
Streetscape Guidelines:
Sidewalk Design Guidelines
Sidewalk and pavement design is essential for making pedestrian friendly streets. Developments within the plan
area should seek to create pavements that clearly delineate automobile right of ways from those of pedestrian
and bike right of ways. Contrasting a warmer-colored concrete base with cooler or even decorative slate to
depict areas of transition in semi-public plazas or at key intersections increase overall legibility and safety.
Development is encouraged to combine these visual tactics with raised crossings within the plan’s urban core
area to help create a consistent and walkable ‘downtown’ neighborhood.
Street Light Design Guidelines
Light is a defining feature for comfortable design, and without proper consideration public spaces quickly lose
nighttime safety and walkability. In order to avoid this loss and promote a charming, small town yet
contemporary feeling for the site staff recommends several design guidelines. In order to promote walkability
along pathways and shared pedestrian-automobile roadways, streetscapes should feature well-spaced, lighted

39
bollards. Furthermore, lamp-style overhead lighting is needed to generally distribute bulk lighting while avoiding
the inhuman feel of traditional “L-shaped” overhang lighting.
Street Furniture Design Guidelines
The most successful activated streetscapes utilize street furniture as a tool for creating pleasant outdoor spaces.
A good mixture of fixed and movable chairs/benches, tables for eating, receptacles for garbage and recycling,
etc. extend the usefulness of our public spaces, and should be carefully considered as part of any development
within the site.
Street Tree Design Guidelines
Trees are not only visually appealing, but are useful for making outdoor public spaces more livable through
the shade they provide. This plan seeks developments to utilize street trees with high clear heights placed
alongside roadways to create consistent visual themes and increase overall walkability on the site.
Landscaping Design Guidelines
Good landscaping is key for breaking apart hardscapes and improving the visual environment. Landscaping
should be utilized within the plan area to enhance paths, street furniture, and plazas.
Public Art Design Guidelines
High quality public art is key for creating a place’s unique identity. Public art should be placed at key
intersections, within public plazas, and in parks to enforce the plan area’s legibility. Developers within the
site area are encouraged to embrace local artistry as a part of any semi-public spaces, with a particular emphasis
on interactive or water based features that create a playful decorum around their placement.
Signage Design Guidelines
Signage and wayfinding are incredibly important for creating walkable and familiar designs. Signage within the
site area should avoid traditional ‘lollipop” style signs and instead embrace signs with a unique, yet consistent
visual language.
All development within the Specific Plan area must maintain visual consistency with the above design guidelines.
Although these guidelines may be interpreted differently depending on future context, this plan generally means to
encourage the inclusion of regional art and materials, consistent design features, and overall safety/walkability. The
following pages are dedicated to assisting in visualization of these themes and furnishings consistent with the vision of
this specific plan.

Intent

With half of the site set aside for conservation, open space, and parks, Irish Hills Ranch takes an integrated,
comprehensive approach to planning open and recreational spaces for both residents and visitors to the site. The design
focuses on connecting open spaces throughout the neighborhood, expanding the City’s network of parks and paths,
protecting natural resources, preserving the City’s agricultural character, and contributing to a sustainable future.

An objective of the City’s Parks and Recreation Element is to ensure that new developments provide needed parkland for
new residents. The Irish Hills Ranch Specific Plan enhances the City’s open space by introducing new amenities, including
adding key links between the Neil Havlik Way, Froom Creek Trail, and active linear parks.

This chapter also outlines the general policies and objectives for Irish Hills Ranch as established in the City’s Parks and
Recreation Element. This chapter also illustrates the overall open space concept for Irish Hills Ranch.

Objective 1: Improve landscaping and encourage variety and quality of public spaces.
Policy 1.1: New trails shall be established throughout the reserved open space of the site, connecting to the
existing trail system.
Policy 1.2: A large park shall be created near the historical structures featuring a variety of sports fields and other
recreational spaces for both residents and visitors.
Policy 1.3: The restored creekbed shall feature bicycle and pedestrian paths along it’s course through the site.
Objective 2: Restore and incorporate existing historical structures into quality public amenities.
Policy 2.1: The existing historical structures shall be restored and transformed into public facilities that function
as a base for outdoor recreation.
Policy 2.2: The new, expanded trail system shall connect to the restored historical structures.
Policy 2.3: Any new structures built in association with the existing historical structures shall be consistent with
the visual qualities and design of those historical structures.
Objective 3: Maintain the visual character and quality of the natural environment on the site.
Policy 3.1: A minimum of 50% of the site shall be reserved as open space.
Policy 3.2: Buildings shall be no taller than 50’ to protect the viewshed of the surrounding hills.
Policy 3.3: Buildings must comply with architectural guidelines and maintain consistency with the visual
character of surrounding buildings.
Conservation Principles:
Balance: Development must balance hardscaped areas with natural landscapes to improve the well-being of a city’s
citizen.
Variety: The mixing of land uses is key to the development of active street fronts and connected communities. Mixing
land uses in urban centers measurably increases property values, general societal happiness, further redevelopment
potential, a sense of place and and community, and greater environmental and economic resiliency.
Human Scale: Human scale refers to the relation between humans and the built environment. The scale, design, and
visual character of the built environment should be comfortable and comprehensible to the people interacting in these
spaces.

53
Intent

This section is dedicated to guiding the development of the Irish Hills Specific Plan Area. It will identify the three tiered
system for plan adoption and implementation beginning with the development of the Downtown Core district, followed
shortly by a joint development phase made up of the first stage of residential development in conjunction with a
recreational hub, finished with the second phase of residential development. Each phase brings with it is own benefits,
and this section will give the user an idea of the forecasted time frame and benefits from each stage of the development.
