BACKGROUND: On November 15, 2022, Council approved the Homelessness Solutions Strategic Plan (Strategic Plan) for the five-year period beginning January 2023 through December 2027. The Strategic Plan provides key strategies and actions that focus on bolstering the City’s response to the homelessness crises, aligning efforts with the Sonoma County Homeless Coalition (our local County Continuum of Care) to achieve the regional goal of “Functional Zero” homelessness by 2027. A system of care achieves “Functional Zero” when a person’s experience with homelessness is rare, brief, and non-recurring. This report highlights the City’s progress toward implementing year three of the five-year Strategic Plan.
RECOMMENDATION: The Housing and Community Services Department recommends that the Council receive a Year Three Report (2025) on the implementation of the Homelessness Solutions Strategic Plan (2023-2027). This item has no impact o | | |

| 1 | 16.1 | CUP streamlining | CC- Public Hearing | PUBLIC HEARING - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT STREAMLINING
BACKGROUND: The City is working on an initiative to streamline the Conditional Use Permit process with the goal of making it more predictable and less costly for applicants and business owners. The primary objective is to support economic development within the City by making it easier to establish and expand businesses. The proposal includes amendments to the Zoning Code to address three main elements: 1) Create a new Director Level Conditional Use Permit process, allowing certain uses to be reviewed and approved administratively rather than requiring a public meeting or hearing, unless one is specifically requested; 2) Reduce the level of Conditional Use Permit (Director, Minor, or Major) required for certain uses, to reduce timelines, lower costs and improve overall efficiency, while maintaining appropriate review and oversight; and 3) Update the Temporary Use Permit section of the Zoning Code to allow for a broader range of temporary activities, including pop-up retail and interim activities for vacant or underutilized sites | | |
