Staff Report
From: Jonathan Lait, Planning and Development Services Director
Lead Department: Planning and Development Services
Meeting Date: August 9, 2023
Report #: 2307-1781
TITLE
LEGISLATIVE: Recommendation to City Council Regarding Proposed Amendments to Palo Alto
Municipal Code (PAMC) Title 18 (Zoning) and Title 9 (Public Peace, Morals and Safety), Chapter
9.10 (Noise) to Facilitate the Installation of Electrification Equipment for Residential
Development
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning and Transportation Commission review and recommend
that the City Council adopt the attached draft ordinance (Attachment A) which contains
changes to the PAMC to further facilitate the installation of electrification equipment in
residential neighborhoods.
These code changes are added to the draft ordinance modifying six Title 18 chapters that the
PTC recommended on December 14, 2022, which has not yet been presented to City Council in
2023. Modifications from the December 14, 2022 ordinance are shown as double-underline/
double-strikethrough text. Links to the staff report and meeting minutes from the PTC meeting
of December 14, 2022 are provided in the footnote below1.
BACKGROUND
The City’s barrier reduction strategy for sustainability and climate action includes updating the
City’s ordinances to ensure the success of electrification programs, such as the new Heat Pump
Water Heater (HPWH) Pilot Program that is now underway. Staff’s proposal to facilitate the

placement of such equipment without requiring and reviewing individual noise reports requires
modification of the noise ordinance (Title 9) as well as sections of Title 18, as described in this
report.
ADU-Associated Noise-Producing Equipment
On June 5, 2023, the City Council adopted an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) ordinance
(Ordinance 5585), modifying the placement of noise-producing equipment for ADUs only, as
follows:
(i) Noise-producing equipment such as air conditioners, water heaters, and similar
service equipment that exclusively serves an ADU/JADU may be located anywhere on
the site, provided they maintain the underlying front yard setback requirements of the
property and, if the property is a corner lot, a 10-foot street-side setback. shall be
located outside of the setbacks for the ADU/JADU. All such equipment shall be insulated
and housed, except that the Director may permit installation without housing and
insulation, provided that a combination of technical noise specifications, location of
equipment, and/or other screening or buffering will assure compliance with the city’s
Noise Ordinance at the nearest property line. All service equipment must meet the city’s
Noise Ordinance in Chapter 9.10 of the Municipal Code.
Prior PTC Review of Electrification Equipment Ordinance
On December 14, 2022, staff presented the PTC with a draft ordinance that proposed to
facilitate adoption of electrification equipment following adoption of the City’s updated Green
Building Code. The draft changes were to Chapters 18.04 (Definitions), 18.10 (Low-Density
Residential), 18.12 (R-1 Zones), 18.13 (Multiple Family Residential Zones), 18.40 (General
Standards and Exceptions), and 18.54 (Parking Facilities Design Standards). The PTC
recommended some adjustments to the ordinance on December 14, 2022. These adjustments
have been incorporated into the attached ordinance and are also noted with double-
underline/double-strikethrough text.
PTC recommended the staff prepared ordinance with modifications:
•Allow a 4-foot encroachment into the front yard setback for lots with a conforming front
yard setback and 2-feet into the front yard setback for lots with a non- conforming front
yard setback. So, that would be 2-feet from the existing structure for those non-
conforming situations.
•Amend the Home Improvement Exception Sections to include electrification equipment.
•Add the following clause at the end of 18.10.040 H (3), 18.10.040 L (3) and 18.13.040 B
(1)(d) and that language is after the word insulation “due to noise generation below
applicable maximums”.
Discussion of Noise in Prior PTC Review
Item 2
Staff Report
Packet Pg. 9
Item No. 2. Page 3 of 10
PTC report has extensive background information, including the City’s policies on noise. With
respect to noise, the December 14, 2022 draft ordinance simply required compliance with the
City’s noise ordinance. The staff report report noted that staff was considering two approaches
to addressing noise-producing electrification equipment within property setbacks:
(1) The Planning Director could maintain a list of equipment types and appropriate
decibel levels within a range or threshold for maximum decibel level for noise-
producing equipment placed within property setbacks.
(2) Staff could ask applicants to demonstrate that the equipment will not exceed a
certain noise level and that sufficient fire access will be provided (i.e. a three-foot
clearance around buildings).
The report also noted staff’s concern about the placement of multiple pieces of equipment and
the potential for cumulative noise and increasing the ambient noise level in a neighborhood.
The report also stated the current practice for when noise reports are required:
• No noise reports are required with the electrification projects for single- and two-
family residential projects.
• Housing projects of three units or more require discretionary review and therefore,
environmental review is required, and noise reports may be requested.
Consultant Assistance
In early 2023, staff determined that additional study was necessary before approaching City
Council with the draft ordinance the PTC recommended in December 2022. Staff was
concerned that most of the electrification equipment on the market appear to operate at noise
levels in excess of what is permitted under the City‘s existing noise ordinance.
Staff retained a noise consultant to assist staff work toward a solution with respect to the Noise
Ordinance standards. Staff and the consultant studied the concept of ‘presumed compliance’,
where setbacks would be established for the installation of electrification equipment based
upon noise levels. The consultant has prepared the attached documents (Attachments B, C, and
D). The consultants prepared a presentation (Attachment C) to assist staff in explaining this
subject and proposal. The consultant-prepared spreadsheet (Attachment D) shows the
equipment studied.
The table in Attachment B, Table 1, would establish the required setbacks for noise-producing
electrification equipment.
The introduction in the consultant’s document, Attachment B, states:
The City of Palo Alto Municipal Code allows for noise-producing electrification
equipment, such as heat pump water heaters and heat pump HVAC equipment, to be
placed in the rear and side yard setbacks. The Planning and Development Services
Department has determined setback requirements for locating noise-producing
electrification equipment to meet the Noise Ordinance limit of 40 dBA and 50 dBA,
Item 2
Staff Report
Packet Pg. 10
Item No. 2. Page 4 of 10
where applicable, at the property line. The figures illustrate the minimum setback
requirements given the manufacturers’ dBA for the equipment. As the manufacturer’s
dBA for the equipment increases, the setback would increase as shown in Table 1.
Staff has italicized the first sentence here, to highlight that Council has not yet adopted the
PTC- recommended ordinance allowing placement in setbacks.
Utility Incentives
In 2022, the City Council approved utility incentives for the installation of electrification
equipment in residential neighborhoods. This prompted the City Council to request the removal
of code barriers to accomplish a successful sustainability program to replace gas-powered
equipment with electric equipment. The incentive program requires a change to the Noise
Ordinance to facilitate these installations.
In October 2022, Council approved an Advanced Heat Pump Water Heater Pilot program, with a
goal of installing 1000 heat pump water heaters within one year. This program promotes heat
pump water heater installation in single family homes through a turnkey installation service by
a City-provided contractor, with a low up-front cost and an option for on-bill financing;
alternatively, customers may opt for the $2300 rebate if they choose their own installation
contractor. The replacement of residential gas appliances such as water heaters with electric
heat pump alternatives is a key action in the City’s Sustainability/Climate Action Plan to meet
the City’s aggressive greenhouse gas emissions reduction goal. Over the next year, Utilities
anticipate rolling out additional residential electrification incentives to promote the
replacement of gas furnaces with heat pump heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC)
equipment as well as launching a whole home electrification pilot program. A change to the
Noise Ordinance will facilitate the adoption of electrification equipment in residential
neighborhoods.
In addition to utility incentives, state and federal incentives are also available to accelerate the
adoption of electrification equipment in order to meet climate goals. The TECH Clean California
program currently offers a rebate of $1000 per unit for new heat pump HVAC systems in single
family homes. The 2022 Inflation Reduction Act offers a 30% federal tax credit for residential
electrification upgrades, including an annual maximum of $2000 each for heat pump water
heater and heat pump HVAC installation.
Spreadsheet of Residential Projects
To provide relevant data for this study, the Chief Building Officials prepared a spreadsheet
(Attachment E) inclusive of all residential projects that included either heat pump or air
conditioning units or both. This spreadsheet included all building permit projects issued
between January 1, 2022 and June 13, 2023. Staff included the manufacturers, model number,
and dbA level, if these were able to be extracted from the permitting information.

Comprehensive Plan Policies on Noise
The December 14, 2022 PTC report provided a review of the Comprehensive Plan policies
regarding noise, which are relevant policies2 for this discussion. Noise is addressed in the Palo
Alto Comprehensive Plan, and staff has used Comprehensive Plan policies as well as the
municipal code to guide decisions on issuing building permits. The Comprehensive Plan
addresses diverse noise sources and provides the policy foundation for much more rigorous
requirements established in the City’s Noise Ordinance. The policies and programs in the
Comprehensive Plan regulate the placement of future “sensitive receptors”—homes, schools,
medical clinics, and the like—in compatible noise environments and acknowledge the
importance of quiet environments in public open spaces and conservation areas.
This section of the Comprehensive Plan also guides the analysis and design of proposed new
development to avoid creating new noise impacts on existing sensitive receptors. In addition,
this section supports the City’s ongoing efforts to coordinate with regional, State and federal
authorities on noise issues of concern to the Palo Alto community, such as overflights into and
out of Bay Area airports and the proposed high speed rail project.
Noise Contours in Comp Plan v. Local Ambient Noise
The below map excerpted from the Comprehensive Plan shows CNEL (Community Noise
Equivalent Level), which is a weighted average of noise level over time used to compare the
noisiness of neighborhoods. This is not the same as “local ambient noise,” which is more
specifically defined in the Noise Ordinance.

Noise Ordinance
The City’s noise ordinance Chapter 9.10, Section 9.10.030 sets a permissible noise limit in
residential zones of 6 dBA over the local ambient noise levels, and Section 9.10.020 defines
‘local ambient’. The existing noise ordinance of the City of Palo Alto limits noise levels caused
by stationary noise sources. The existing noise ordinance requires that ambient noise levels first
be established through noise measurements, and then, defines an exceedance if noise levels
would exceed ambient noise levels by more than 6 dBA.
Selected definitions from PAMC 9.10.020 relevant to Table 1 compliance
(a) "Sound level," expressed in decibels (dB), means a logarithmic indication
of the ratio between the acoustic energy present at a given location and the
lowest amount of acoustic energy audible to sensitive human ears and weighted
by frequency to account for characteristics of human hearing, as given in the
American National Standards Institute Standard S1.1, "Acoustic Terminology,"
paragraph 2.9, or successor reference. All references to dB in this chapter utilize
the A-level weighting scale, abbreviated dBA, measured as set forth in this
section.
(b) "Precision sound level meter" means a device for measuring sound level
in decibel units within the performance specifications in the American National
Standards Institute Standard S1.4, "Specification for Sound Level Meters."
(c) "Noise level" means the maximum continuous sound level or repetitive
peak sound level, produced by a source or group of sources as measured with a
precision sound level meter. In order to measure a noise level, the controls of
the precision sound level meter should be arranged to the setting appropriate to
the type of noise being measured.
(d) "Local ambient" means the lowest sound level repeating itself during a
six-minute period as measured with a precision sound level meter, using slow
response and "A" weighting. The minimum sound level shall be determined with
the noise source at issue silent, and in the same location as the measurement of
the noise level of the source or sources at issue. However, for purposes of this
chapter, in no case shall the local ambient be considered or determined to be
less than: (1) Thirty dBA for interior noise in Section 9.10.030(b); (2) Forty dBA in
all other sections. If a significant portion of the local ambient is produced by one
or more individual identifiable sources which would otherwise be operating
continuously during the six-minute measurement period and contributing
significantly to the ambient sound level, determination of the local ambient shall
be accomplished with these separate identifiable noise sources silent.
Excerpt from PAMC 9.10.030 re residential property noise limits
This code section states, in pertinent part:
Item 2
Staff Report
Packet Pg. 14
Item No. 2. Page 8 of 10
(a) No person shall produce, suffer or allow to be produced by any machine,
animal or device, or any combination of same, on residential property, a noise
level more than six dB above the local ambient at any point outside of the
property plane.
(b) No person shall produce, suffer or allow to be produced by any machine,
animal, or device, or any combination of same, on multi-family residential
property, a noise level more than six dB above the local ambient three feet from
any wall, floor, or ceiling inside any dwelling unit on the same property, when
the windows and doors of the dwelling unit are closed, except within the
dwelling unit in which the noise source or sources may be located.
Additional information from Section 9.10.030 is provided in the Discussion section of this
report.
Home Improvement Exceptions
PAMC sections 18.10.110 and 18.12.120 enable a discretionary review process for exceptions to
the development standards of these chapters. The process is the Home Improvement Exception
(HIE) process, allowing staff to approve a home improvement or minor addition to an existing
single-family or two-family home, or accessory structure in the RE, R-1, RMD, or R-2 districts.
There are required findings for the PDS Director to tentatively approve or deny these
exceptions, and a Director’s Hearing may be requested to contest the Director’s action; HIE
decisions following Director’s Hearing actions may be appealed to Council. The exceptions are
limited to a list described in subsection c of 18.12.120. The attached ordinance adds
‘Electrification equipment’ to the list of exceptions in subsection c, to enable further flexibility
in placement of such equipment, subject to the approval findings.
In the areas of Palo Alto with local ambient noise level above 50dBA, the equipment noise level
can be up to and including the level of the local ambient, for presumed compliance at a three-
foot setback from rear and interior side property lines, and ten feet from the street side yard
property line, but not in the front setback.
DISCUSSION
Draft Ordinance Title 9 Changes
In addition to the changes recommended by the PTC on December 14, 2022, the attached
ordinance modifies Chapter 9.10. While the PTC’s purview does not include recommendations
on changes to other PAMC titles beyond Titles 18 and 21, the PTC’s feedback is sought because
these changes will affect the placement of noise-producing electrification equipment in
residential zones. The draft ordinance modifies Title 9 to:
(1) Establish a table with minimum setbacks for placement of electrification equipment
based on local ambient noise and the noise level of the equipment. This table would be used to
determine compliance for electrification equipment in lieu of individualized noise studies.
Item 2
Staff Report
Packet Pg. 15
Item No. 2. Page 9 of 10
(2) Raise the local ambient noise level noted in PAMC Chapter 9.10 to a minimum 50 dBa
for the ‘flats’ area and 40 dBA in the foothills area. Note, as of the preparation of this report
and ordinance, these terms have not yet been fully defined.
(2) Change the noise ordinance to allow for limited exceedances of the current limit of 6dBa
above the ambient level - to a limit of 8dBA above.
Proposed Noise Thresholds
In addition to the consultant’s Table 1 showing setbacks, the consultant prepared two graphs
intended to replace the standard currently set forth in the City’s noise ordinance for residential
zone districts. These graphs, referenced in the proposed ordinance, show the relationship
between the source levels of the equipment and the necessary setbacks to meet the noise
limits. They show the setback gradient for equipment producing noise above ambient noise
levels of 40 dBA (the ambient noise level encountered in the foothills area of Palo Alto) and 50
dBA (found in other areas in Palo Alto).
A two-tier noise level threshold is proposed to simplify the process for documenting ambient
noise levels and defining an exceedance. The thresholds account for the ambient noise
environment in various areas of Palo Alto and establish a standalone threshold to simplify the
application of the ordinance.
Foothills
For the Palo Alto foothills area, the relatively low ambient noise environment requires a more
conservative threshold to ensure that the installation of new equipment facilitated by these
zoning code changes would not result in a substantial permanent increase ambient noise levels.
After a review of ambient noise data and the regulatory criteria established by neighboring
communities having a similar location and noise source characteristics (Portola Valley and Los
Altos Hills), 40 dBA was selected as the noise level threshold that would be applied to
equipment installed in the foothills.
Palo Alto ‘Flats’
The second noise level tier would be applied in the non-foothills areas of Palo Alto, or ‘flats’
areas where ambient noise levels are higher because of the proximity to major transportation
noise sources traversing the areas including highways and major arterial roadways. To ensure
that the installation of new equipment facilitated by these zoning code changes would not
result in a substantial permanent increase ambient noise levels in the Palo Alto flats, 50 dBA
was selected. The 50 dBA noise limit is consistent with other nearby communities including East
Palo Alto, Los Altos, Mountain View, Menlo Park, and Sunnyvale.
Increased Exceedance of Local Ambient – Good Neighbor Placement
The consultant’s document notes that good neighbor placement of equipment and sound
baffling may not work to allow the installation to meet the existing standard of 6 dbA above

ambient. The handout (Attachment B) notes that owners seeking to install electrification
equipment are advised to:
• Select the quietest equipment possible and utilize the manufacturer’s noise control
packages where applicable
• Place equipment as far as possible from adjacent property lines or in areas shielded
by structures or noise barriers. Note that acoustical enclosures may not be feasible
noise control options as air-flow requirements, building setbacks, or other
constraints may limit their effectiveness.
• Orient the equipment take advantage of the directionality of the noise source (i.e.,
point the noise source away from receptors.

immediately adjacent to a post, where such post limits turning movements into or out of the
stall.
(4) For property owners or tenants seeking to install EVSE, the required stall widths shown
in Table 3 of Section 18.54.070 may be reduced by no more than eighteen inches below the
code-required minimum dimensions in order to accommodate EVSE or associated electrical
utility equipment. For parking lots and garages other than for one- and two-family use, tThis
reduction may be applied to 10% of the total required parking stalls, or two stalls, whichever is
greater. The director may approve a reduction in width for a greater number of stalls through a
director’s adjustment pursuant to Section 18.52.050. For one- and two-family residential
garages and carports, 18-inch reductions are allowed for both stall width and depth to enable
electrification equipment and protective bollards, as long as (i) the reduced width is not
continuous along the side of the stall, to provide a six-foot length near the middle of the stall
for opening two vehicular side doors, and (ii) the proposed garage has an interior clearance
depth of 20 feet in compliance with 18.54.020 (b)(2) or an existing substandard garage has a
depth of at least 19 feet-six inches. For a garage depth less than 19 feet-six inches but greater
than 18 feet, such equipment may be installed on the back wall of the garage at a location at
least four feet above the finished floor.
[. . .]

(d) “Local ambient” means the lowest sound level repeating itself during a six-
minute period as measured with a precision sound level meter, using slow response and
"A" weighting. The minimum sound level shall be determined with the noise source at
issue silent, and in the same location as the measurement of the noise level of the
source or sources at issue. However, for purposes of this chapter, in no case shall the
local ambient be considered or determined to be less than: (1) Thirty dBA for interior
noise in Section 9.10.030(b); (2) Forty dBA in the Palo Alto Foothills areas; (3) Fifty dBA
in all other sections. If a significant portion of the local ambient is produced by one or
more individual identifiable sources which would otherwise be operating continuously
during the six-minute measurement period and contributing significantly to the ambient
sound level, determination of the local ambient shall be accomplished with these
separate identifiable noise sources silent.
SECTION 9. Section 9.10.030 (Residential Property Noise Limits) of Chapter 9.10 (Noise)
of Title 9 (Public Peace, Morals, and Safety) of the Palo Alto Municipal Code is amended to read
as follows (additions underlined, deletions struck-through, and omissions noted with bracketed
ellipses):
9.10.030 Residential property noise limits.
(a) No person shall produce, suffer or allow to be produced by any machine, animal or
device, or any combination of same, on residential property, a noise level more than six dB
above the local ambient at any point outside of the property plane, except as modified in (c)
below.
(b) No person shall produce, suffer or allow to be produced by any machine, animal, or
device, or any combination of same, on multi-family residential property, a noise level more
than six dB above the local ambient three feet from any wall, floor, or ceiling inside any
dwelling unit on the same property, when the windows and doors of the dwelling unit are
closed, except within the dwelling unit in which the noise source or sources may be located.
(c) In 40 to 50 dBA local ambient noise level environments, electrification equipment, as
defined in Title 18, shall be deemed to comply with this Section 9.10.030 if the equipment is
placed at the setbacks established in Table 1 – Setback Requirements.
(i)Heat pump condenser units shall be allowed to emit noise at 8dB above the local
ambient noise level if the unit(s) are set back at least 10 feet from a rear or interior

Noise Standards and Placement Guidelines
The City of Palo Alto Municipal Code allows for noise-producing electrification equipment, such as heat
pump water heaters and heat pump HVAC equipment, to be placed in the rear and side yard setbacks. The
Planning and Development Services Department has determined setback requirements for locating noise-
producing electrification equipment to meet the Noise Ordinance limit of 40 dBA and 50 dBA, where
applicable, at the property line. The figures illustrate the minimum setback requirements given the
manufacturers dBA for the equipment. As the manufacturer’s dBA for the equipment increases, the setback
would increase as shown in Table 1.

All noise producing electrification equipment will need to maintain a 36-inch separation between structures.
If the proposed electrification equipment exceeds the dBA listed in Table 1, then the setback shall be
determined by the Planning Department upon consultation with a professional noise consultant. Further, if
installing multiple units, the applicant shall provide a certified noise consultant report verifying compliance
with the setback requirements.
EQUIPMENT PLACEMENT AND RECOMMENDATIONS
To further promote good neighbor relations, staff recommends the following measures:
•Select the quietest equipment possible and utilize the manufacturer’s noise control packages where
applicable.
•Place equipment as far as possible from adjacent property lines or in areas shielded by structures
or noise barriers. Note that acoustical enclosures may not be feasible noise control options as air-
flow requirements, building setbacks, or other constraints may limit their effectiveness.
•Orient the equipment take advantage of the directionality of the noise source (i.e., point the noise
source away from receptors).
BUILDING PERMIT SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PLANNING APPROVAL (2 COPIES OF EACH)
1. Site plan – Showing property lines, building footprint, location of electrification unit(s), and setback
to side and rear property lines measured from the face of the unit. The site plan shall have the
model number(s) of the proposed units and the nominal size of the unit (i.e. tons).
2. Manufacturer’s Specifications (Product Data) – Provide the title page and page showing the
noise rating of the unit. For variable speed units, the highest noise rating of the unit will be used.
Brochures or other marketing materials are not acceptable.

Supplemental Report
From: Amy French, Chief Planning Official
Meeting Date: August 30, 2023
Item Number: 2
Report #:2307-1781
TITLE
LEGISLATIVE: Recommendation to City Council Regarding Proposed Amendments to Palo Alto
Municipal Code (PAMC) Title 18 (Zoning) and Title 9 (Public Peace, Morals and Safety), Chapter
9.10 (Noise) to Facilitate the Installation of Electrification Equipment for Residential
Development
RECOMMENDATION
Staff proposes revisions to the draft ordinance for consideration of the Planning and
Transportation Commission (PTC) in its recommendation to the City Council.
BACKGROUND
Following the publication of the packet last Wednesday, staff received input from stakeholders
and is proposing these adjustments:
(1)Home Improvement Exception Limit #16
Staff proposes to trim the verbiage in the Home Improvement Exception limit #16, newly added
for this ordinance to Section 18.12.120, to eliminate specificity regarding the level above
ambient noise; it led to confusion in conjunction with reading the presumed compliance table:
Item 2
PTC-8.30-At-Places-Memo
Packet Pg. 105
Item No. 2. Page 2 of 3
(2)Heat Pump Condenser Units
Staff proposes to remove the item (c)(i) in PAMC 9.10.030 that appeared in the packet
ordinance, regarding heat pump condenser units, again because it was confusing to read as
follows.
(c)In 40 to 50 dBA local ambient noise level environments, as defined in Section 9.10.020(d),
electrification equipment, as defined in Title 18, shall be deemed to comply with this Section
9.10.030 if the equipment is placed at the setbacks established in Table 1 – Setback
Requirements.
(i)Heat pump condenser units shall be allowed to emit noise at 8dB above the local
ambient noise level if the unit(s) are set back at least 10 feet from a rear or interior
side property line.
(i)Electrification equipment in areas with measured local ambient noise over 50 dBA
shall be subject to generally applicable noise standards.
(3)Presumed Compliance Table
Staff added clarification at the top of Table 1 – Setback Requirements, regarding ‘less than’ and
‘more than’ relating to noise levels to ensure better understanding for the reader.
The City’s consultant has prepared a revised table – below – for discussion of compliance at a
three-foot setback and will be available to discuss these concepts during the PTC meeting.

Ordinance of the Council of the City of Palo Alto Amending Palo Alto Municipal Code
(PAMC) Title 18 (Zoning), Chapters 18.04 (Definitions), 18.10 (Low-Density Residential),
18.12 (R-1, Single Family Residence District), 18.13 (Multifamily Residential Zones), 18.40
(General Standards and Exceptions), and 18.54 (Parking Facilities Design Standards) and
Title 9 (Public Peace, Morals, and Safety), Chapter 9.10 (Noise) to Facilitate Adoption of
Electrification Equipment Required by the 2022 Green Building Code and Local Amendments
The Council of the City of Palo Alto does ORDAIN as follows:
SECTION 1. Section 18.04.030 (Definitions) of Chapter 18.04 (Definitions) of Title 18
(Zoning) is amended to read as follows (additions underlined, deletions struck-through, and
omissions noted with bracketed ellipses):
18.04.030 Definitions
(a)Throughout this title the following words and phrases shall have the meanings
ascribed in this section.
[. . .]
(49) (reserved) “Electrification Equipment” means one or more devices that use electric
energy to serve a dwelling unit’s needs for heating and cooling, water heating, cooking, and
electric vehicle charging. In addition, ancillary equipment such as an electric panel, photovoltaic
equipment, and energy storage systems that are deployed to support such devices shall be considered
Electrification Equipment.
[. . .]
SECTION 2. Section 18.10.040 (Site Development Standards) of Chapter 18.10 (RE,
R2, RMD Low-Density Residential District) of Title 18 (Zoning) of the PAMC is amended to read
as follows (additions underlined, deletions struck-through, and omissions noted with bracketed
ellipses):
18.10.040 Development Standards
[. . .]
(h)Location of Noise-Producing Equipment and Electrification Equipment
(1)Electrification equipment and any associated housing, screening, insulation,
or bollards necessary to enable compliance with the applicable regulations,
including Chapter 9.10 of this Code, shall provide a minimum three foot
interior side and rear yard setback and a minimum ten foot street sideyard

setback. Except as otherwise provided in this Title EVSE and energy storage
systems, electrification equipment shall not be located in the required front
yard setback and shall at all times provide sufficient clearance for fire safety
purposes. All other noise-producing equipment, such as air conditioners,
pool equipment, gas powered generators, commercial kitchen fans, and
similar service equipment shall be located outside of the front, rear and side
yard setbacks. Such equipment may, however, be located up to 6 feet into
the street sideyard setback. All such noise-producing equipment, including
electrification equipment, shall be insulated and housed, except that the
Planning Director may permit installation without housing and insulation,
provided the equipment is located within the building envelope and where
that a combination of technical noise specifications, location of equipment,
and/or other screening or buffering will assure compliance with the City’s
Noise Ordinance at the nearest property line. Any replacement of such
equipment shall conform to this section where feasible; replacement of
equipment for which permits were obtained prior to these restrictions is
allowable in the same location, provided the replacement equipment
complies with the City’s noise ordinance. All service equipment must meet
the City Noise Ordinance in Chapter 9.10 of this code.
(2) Where existing improvements comply with front setback requirements, EVSE
may encroach up to four feet into the required front setback. Where existing
improvements do not comply with front setback requirements, EVSE may
encroach into the otherwise required front setback by two feet beyond the
existing improvement. EVSE and energy storage systems and associated
equipment and safety bollards may be located within required on-site
parking spaces, as further described in PAMC Chapter 18.54 Section
18.54.020.
(3) The Planning Director may publish administrative regulations to further
implement this subsection (h), including a list of equipment or technologies
that may presumptively be installed without housing and insulation due to
noise generation below applicable maximums.

SECTION 3. Sections 18.12.040 (Site Development Standards), 18.12.050 (Permitted
Encroachments, Projections, and Exceptions), and Section 18.12.120 (Home Improvement
Exception) of Chapter 18.12 (R-1 Single- Family Residential District) of Title 18 (Zoning) of the
PAMC are amended to read as follows (additions underlined, deletions struck-through, and
omissions noted with bracketed ellipses):
18.12.040 Site Development Standards
[. . .]
(l)Location of Noise-Producing Equipment and Electrification Equipment
(1)Electrification equipment and any associated housing, screening, insulation,
or bollards necessary to enable compliance with the applicable regulations,
including Chapter 9.10 of this Code, shall provide a minimum three foot
interior side and rear yard setback and a minimum ten foot street sideyard
setback. Except as otherwise provided in this Title for EVSE and energy
storage systems, electrification equipment shall not be located in the
required front yard setback and shall at all times provide sufficient clearance
for fire safety purposes. All other noise-producing equipment, such as air
conditioners, pool equipment, gas powered generators, commercial kitchen
fans, and similar service equipment shall be located outside of the front, rear
and side yard setbacks. Such equipment may, however, be located up to 6
feet into the street sideyard setback. All such noise-producing equipment,
including electrification equipment, shall be insulated and housed, except
that the Planning Director may permit installation without housing and
insulation, provided the equipment is located within the building envelope
and where that a combination of technical noise specifications, location of
equipment, and/or other screening or buffering will assure compliance with
the City’s Noise Ordinance at the nearest property line. Any replacement of
such equipment shall conform to this section where feasible, except the
Director may allow replacement of existing equipment in a non-complying
location, if such equipment had prior building permit(s), with equipment that
meets the City’s Noise Ordinance. All service equipment must meet the City

(a) Parking Facility Design
Parking facilities shall be designed in accordance with the following regulations:
(1) Requirements for dimensions of parking facilities at, above, and below grade are
contained in this section and in Figures 1-6 and Tables 3-6 of Section 18.54.070.
(2) Stalls and aisles shall be designed such that columns, walls, or other obstructions do not
interfere with normal vehicle parking maneuvers. All required stall and aisle widths shall be
designed to be clear of such obstructions except as otherwise provided in subsection (a)(4)
below.
(3) The required stall widths shown in Table 3 of Section 18.54.070 shall be increased by
0.5 foot for any stall located immediately adjacent to a wall, whether on one or both sides. The
director may require that the required stall widths be increased by 0.5 foot for any stall located
immediately adjacent to a post, where such post limits turning movements into or out of the
stall.
(4) For property owners or tenants seeking to install EVSE, the required stall widths shown
in Table 3 of Section 18.54.070 may be reduced by no more than eighteen inches below the
code-required minimum dimensions in order to accommodate EVSE or associated electrical
utility equipment. For parking lots and garages other than for one- and two-family use, tThis
reduction may be applied to 10% of the total required parking stalls, or two stalls, whichever is
greater. The director may approve a reduction in width for a greater number of stalls through a
director’s adjustment pursuant to Section 18.52.050. For one- and two-family residential
garages and carports, 18-inch reductions are allowed for both stall width and depth to enable
electrification equipment and protective bollards, as long as (i) the reduced width is not
continuous along the side of the stall, to provide a six-foot length near the middle of the stall
for opening two vehicular side doors, and (ii) the proposed garage has an interior clearance
depth of 20 feet in compliance with 18.54.020 (b)(2) or an existing substandard garage has a
depth of at least 19 feet-six inches. For a garage depth less than 19 feet-six inches but greater
than 18 feet, such equipment may be installed on the back wall of the garage at a location at
least four feet above the finished floor.
[. . .]
(b) Off-Street Parking Stalls
(1) Each off-street parking stall shall consist of a rectangular area not less than eight and
one-half (8.5) feet wide by seventeen and one-half (17.5) feet long (uni-class stall), or as
otherwise prescribed for angled parking by Table 3 in Section 18.54.070.

(2) Garages and carports for single-family and two-family development shall provide a
minimum interior clearance of ten (10) feet wide by twenty (20) feet long for a single car and a
minimum of twenty (20) feet wide by twenty (20) feet long for two cars to allow sufficient
clearance, except as otherwise provided in subsection (a)(4) above.
SECTION 8. Section 9.10.020 (Definitions) of Chapter 9.10 (Noise) of Title 9 (Public
Peace, Morals, and Safety) of the Palo Alto Municipal Code is amended to read as follows
(additions underlined, deletions struck-through, and omissions noted with bracketed ellipses):
9.10.020 Definitions.
For the purposes of this chapter, certain terms are defined as follows:
[. . .]
(d) “Local ambient” means the lowest sound level repeating itself during a six-
minute period as measured with a precision sound level meter, using slow response and
"A" weighting. The minimum sound level shall be determined with the noise source at
issue silent, and in the same location as the measurement of the noise level of the
source or sources at issue. However, for purposes of this chapter, in no case shall the
local ambient be considered or determined to be less than: (1) Thirty dBA for interior
noise in Section 9.10.030(b); (2) Forty dBA in the Palo Alto Foothills areas; (3) Fifty dBA
in all other sections. If a significant portion of the local ambient is produced by one or
more individual identifiable sources which would otherwise be operating continuously
during the six-minute measurement period and contributing significantly to the ambient
sound level, determination of the local ambient shall be accomplished with these
separate identifiable noise sources silent.
SECTION 9. Section 9.10.030 (Residential Property Noise Limits) of Chapter 9.10 (Noise)
of Title 9 (Public Peace, Morals, and Safety) of the Palo Alto Municipal Code is amended to read
as follows (additions underlined, deletions struck-through, and omissions noted with bracketed
ellipses):
9.10.030 Residential property noise limits.
(a) No person shall produce, suffer or allow to be produced by any machine, animal or
device, or any combination of same, on residential property, a noise level more than six dB
above the local ambient at any point outside of the property plane, except as modified in (c)
below.
(b) No person shall produce, suffer or allow to be produced by any machine, animal, or
device, or any combination of same, on multi-family residential property, a noise level more
than six dB above the local ambient three feet from any wall, floor, or ceiling inside any

dwelling unit on the same property, when the windows and doors of the dwelling unit are
closed, except within the dwelling unit in which the noise source or sources may be located.
(c) In 40 to 50 dBA local ambient noise level environments, as defined in Section 9.10.020(d),
electrification equipment, as defined in Title 18, shall be deemed to comply with this Section
9.10.030 if the equipment is placed at the setbacks established in Table 1 – Setback
Requirements.
(i) Heat pump condenser units shall be allowed to emit noise at 8dB above the local
ambient noise level if the unit(s) are set back at least 10 feet from a rear or interior
side property line.
(i) Electrification equipment in areas with measured local ambient noise over 50 dBA
shall be subject to generally applicable noise standards.

SECTION 10. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of this Ordinance is
for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by a decision of any court of competent
jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this
Ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed this Ordinance and each
and every section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase not declared invalid or
unconstitutional without regard to whether any portion of the ordinance would be
subsequently declared invalid or unconstitutional.

SECTION 11. The Council finds that the adoption of this ordinance is exempt from the
provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to CEQA Guideline sections
15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that the proposed modifications, which retain
existing noise standards in Chapter 9.10, will not result in a significant impact on the physical
environment. Additionally, the activity regulated by the ordinance is exempt under CEQA
Guideline 15301 because it involves the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing,
licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, and mechanical
equipment, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former uses.
SECTION 12. This ordinance shall be effective on the thirty-first date after the date of
its adoption.
