TITLE
REINTRODUCED FIRST READING: Adoption of an Ordinance Amending Palo Alto Municipal Code
Title 18 (Zoning) and Title 21 (Subdivisions and Other Divisions of Land) to Clarify Existing
Regulations and to Implement State Housing Laws Adopted in 2023 and Earlier. CEQA Status ‐
Exempt Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3). (PREVIOUSLY INTRODUCED:
November 12, 2024 PASSED 6-1, Kou no)
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the attached ordinance clarifying existing regulations and implementing state housings
laws adopted in 2023 and earlier.
BACKGROUND
On November 12, 2024, the City Council provided direction to staff on the implementation of
AB 2097 and adopted an ordinance on first reading that amended the Palo Alto Municipal Code
to incorporate a variety of state housing laws, including AB 2097.
The Council motion was, in pertinent part:
1. Require ADA / EVCS parking based on the full amount that would have been required if AB
2097 did not apply.
2. Adopt the attached ordinance implementing state law and other minor amendments to
Titles 18 and 21 of the municipal code, except as modified by the prior motion on AB 2097
ANALYSIS
The City Council direction on AB 2097 differed from the staff recommendation and the draft
ordinance attached to the November 12 report. As a result, staff have revised the ordinance to
reflect City Council direction (see page 5 of the attached ordinance).
As part of this effort, staff found it was necessary to better define the term “full amount” of
parking used in the Council motion. Both local and state laws offer a variety of parking
adjustments based on factors such as on-site amenities, transportation demand management
plans, and the amount of affordable housing provided. Staff resolved this question in the
proposed ordinance by applying the maximum amount of parking adjustments in determining
the “full amount” of parking. Because this is a substantive issue that was not previously
discussed, staff is presenting the ordinance for a new first reading.
In addition, staff have added a provision to the ordinance clarifying that this change will not
apply to projects that have been deemed complete for a planning entitlement prior to the
effective date of the ordinance. This will avoid situations where an applicant has expended
significant time and resources based on the staff’s prior interpretation of AB 2097, only to have
the project scuttled at a late stage. One example of this issue is 640 Waverley. This mixed-use
project with four dwelling units is proposing six parking spaces, of which one is an accessible
space and four are EV-ready. Under the proposed ordinance, the project would need to provide
nine spaces, including two van-accessible spaces, and seven EV-ready spaces. Given the physical
constraints associated with this downtown site, the additional requirement would require a
complete redesign of the project and would likely render it infeasible. Another example is the
former Antonio’s Nut House project, which is currently designed with one accessible parking
space and one other publicly available space. With the Council’s direction, both of those spaces
would been required to be accessible spaces. This project, however, has already received a
building permit and will not be subject this requirement.
POLICY IMPLICATIONS
For properties within the Downtown parking district, applicants will have an opportunity to
participate in the City’s in-lieu parking program for commercial development under the City’s
current standards; residential projects would need to provide on-site ADA and EV parking in
accordance with the Council’s direction. As illustrated above for the 640 Waverley project and
documented in the prior staff report, this may make housing development on smaller lots
unlikely.
For properties in the California Avenue area within one-half mile from the Caltrain station, the
interchangeability of land uses, such as transitioning from retail to restaurant will be
constrained for some sites. An intensification of land use typically requires additional parking,
and the first parking spaces are dedicated to accessible parking. Many smaller lots in this area
seeking to establish a restaurant or higher intensity land use may be impacted by this action
until such time the City establishes a uniform parking requirement for retail and retail-like uses;
tentatively scheduled to occur around June 2025.
In other areas not subject to AB 2097, staff will continue to impose an accessibility and electric
vehicle parking requirement based on the amount of parking provided on-site as part of the
development. An example of this is with the affordable housing project at 525 Charleston
Avenue. This approach is consistent with local and state law requirements.
FISCAL/RESOURCE IMPACT
The recommendation in this report does not have any significant fiscal or resource impacts to
the City.
STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
The City Council held a public hearing on this ordinance on November 12, 2024 and provided
direction to staff to implement the subject ordinance.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The recommendation in this report is exempt from environmental review in accordance with
the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) in that it can be seen
with certainty that the proposed action does not have an impact on the environment and
continues the status quo.

Ordinance of the Council of the City of Palo Alto Amending Various Chapters of
Title 18 (Zoning) and Title 21 (Subdivisions and Other Divisions of Land) of the
Palo Alto Municipal Code to Clarify Existing Regulations and to Implement Recent
State Housing Laws
SECTION 1. Findings and Declarations. The City Council finds and declares as follows:
A. On October 11, 2023, the Governor of the State of California signed Senate Bill 684,
effective July 1, 2024. SB 684 requires the ministerial approval of certain subdivision
maps, planning entitlements, and building permits for developments of up to 10
residential units.
B. On October 11, 2023, the Governor signed Senate Bill 4, effective January 1, 2024. SB4
requires housing development projects to be "use by right" on land owned by
independent higher education or religious institutions, given certain conditions.
C. On October 11, 2023, the Governor signed Assembly Bill 894, effective January 1, 2024.
AB 894 requires local agencies to approve shared parking agreements that meet criteria
specified in the bill.
D. On September 22, 2022, the Governor signed Assembly Bill 2097, effective January 1,
2023. AB 2097, subject to certain limited exceptions, prohibits public agencies from
imposing or enforcing a minimum parking requirement on a residential, commercial, or
other development project that is within one- half mile of defined “public transit”
E. On October 8, 2021, the Governor signed Assembly Bill 970, effective as to Palo Alto on
January 1, 2023. AB 970 limits the discretion of local agencies when reviewing
applications to install electric vehicle charging stations.
F. On September 25, 2018, the Governor signed Assembly Bill 2162, effective January 1,
2019. AB 2162 makes certain supportive housing projects a use by-right in all zones that
permit multifamily residential uses. Although the City has been implementing this bill
since 2019, Program 6.5(D) of the 2023-2031 Housing Element requires the City to
incorporate the bill in the zoning code.
G. Upon recommendation of City Staff and the Planning and Transportation Commission, the
Council of the City of Palo Alto desires to adopt regulations responding to and
implementing these state laws.
H. Upon recommendation of City Staff and the Planning and Transportation Commission, the
Council further desires to make non-substantive clarifications to existing provisions of the
Palo Alto Municipal Code.

Good Morning Mayor Stone and fellow council members,
Please see attached letter addressing concerns I have about the proposed ordinance
language modifying PAMC 18.52.040 Off-Street Parking and the potential impact this will have
on the production of housing within ½ mile of public transit.
Further consideration of the appropriate policy direction needs to be evaluated by the city’s
consultants and the Housing Advisory Committee.
Thank you for your consideration.
Best regards,
Ken
