Planning Commission Meeting - June 6, 2023

The City of Atascadero Planning Commission held a meeting on June 6, 2023, which included a public hearing on a use permit for the construction of an oversized accessory structure at 7790 Aragon Road. The commission discussed the proposed 2,400 square foot detached garage/workshop, its compliance with municipal codes, and conditions of approval including options for permitting or removing an existing sea train on the property. The permit was approved with a 6-1 vote allowing the structure and permitting the sea train if properly permitted. Additionally, a group of graduate students from Cal Poly presented a 30-year conceptual design plan for downtown Atascadero, focusing on mixed-use development, pedestrian pathways, housing, and revitalization projects. The commission also received updates on upcoming projects including RV storage development and zoning updates, as well as a report on the progress of the downtown concept plan and other local development activities. No direct contract awards or procurement decisions were made during this meeting, but the discussions on development projects and zoning updates may influence future procurement and construction activities in the city.
