BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS - Cont.
On June 10, 1991 the Walnut Creek-Contra Costa County Planning
Committee met and endorsed the changes recommended in the May 7,
1991 Community Development Directors report. They also approved
minor changes to the text dealing with fencing and allowing for
small agricultural structures to be allowed on slopes over 26%
slope subject to planning agency review. A significant change
deals with the Flood Control Districts surplus land. Revised text
strongly endorsed its acquisition for park and open space purposes
by Walnut Creek, the County, or other recreation agency. These
proposed changes are shown on Attachment A.

UPERVISORS
June 18, 1991 q,FRK B pOF gTA CO.
The Joint City/County Planning Committee discussed the following issues at their June 10, 1991 meeting.
Outstanding Issues:
1) Prohibition of all structures on lands with slopes greater than 26%.
As written, the draft Specific Plan prohibits any development on lands with slopes greater than 26%.
This prohibition would also include small non-residential structures.
After Committee discussion, it was agreed that small agriclutural-related structures could be constructed
on lands with greater than 26% slope with planning staff review.
Recommendation: Amend the Plan text as follows (changes shown in gray/deletions shown in strikeout):
Page 3 Land Use Policy 8:
Prohibit development within any required creek or seismic
setback areas.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
Adopted this Order on June 25, 1991 by the following vote:
AYES: Supervisors Schroder, McPeak, Fanden, Todakson and Powers
NOES: None
ABSENT: None
ABSTAIN: None
RESOLUTION NO. 91/416
SUBJECT: In the Matter of the
North Gate Specific Plan
The Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County RESOLVES that:
There is filed with this Board and its Clerk a copy of Resolution No. 20-1991, adopted by the County
Planning Commission, which discusses a Specific Plan for the North Gate area (#SP-1991-1). The
resolution makes reference to some additional recommendations to the Specific Plan, which are outlined
in Attachment B of the May 7, 1991 packet.
On May 7, 1991 the Board held hearings on said Specific Plan discussed by the Planning Commission
Resolution 20-1991. Notice of said hearing was duly given in the manner required by law. The Board,
at the hearings called for testimony of all persons interested in this matter.
After taking testimony, the Board closed the public hearing and continued the decision on adoption of the
specific plan to its June 18, 1991 meeting. At the meeting of June 18, 1991, this item was again
continued to the meeting of June 25, 1991 to allow City and County staffs to resolve outstanding issues.
The Board finds that the proposed plan will not have a significant impact on the environment because the
proposed plan only provides refined policy guidance to the existing County General Plan and does not
propose any changes to adopted land use policy. An Environmental Initial Study and Negative
Declaration was prepared, and adopted by the Board, for the North Gate Specific Plan. These actions
satisfy the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and County CEQA guidelines.
The Board members having fully considered this Specific Plan discussed in Resolution No. 20-1991, the
recommendations included in the County Community Development staff report dated May, 7 1991, the
revisions included in Attachment A, dated June 18, 1991 and included in the Board's June 25, 1991
packet, and the recommendations made by Supervisor Schroder at theK Board's June 25, 1991 meeting,
hereby adopts the North Gate Specific Plan including all these proposed changes.
The Board further directs the County Community Development Department and Flood Control District
staffs to continue work with the City of Walnut Creek staff concerning the purchase of the County Flood
Control District's surplus site for public open space.
Orig. Dept.: Clerk of the Board
