15.3 PUBLIC HEARING - ROSELAND VILLAGE TENTATIVE MAP AND
DENSITY BONUS. APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
ON THE TENTATIVE MAP AND DENSITY BONUS FOR THE
PLANNED ROSELAND VILLAGE MIXED USE PROJECT AT 665 & 883
SEBASTOPOL ROAD, SANTA ROSA, CA PRJ17-075; MAJ17-006,
DB19-001.
BACKGROUND: On February 28, 2019, the Planning Commission
approved the Roseland Village Tentative Map and Density Bonus by
voting 6 ayes, 0 noes, and 1 absent. The Tentative Map would
subdivide a 7.41-acre site into five lots, require subdivision
infrastructure improvements, and establish public and private street
circulation to accommodate the planned future development of three
apartment buildings with 175 units, including 75 affordable units, a
25,000 square foot civic building, a 5,000 square foot market place, and
a 1-acre public plaza. The Density Bonus allows a 34% increase in
residential density and three incentives/concessions which allow
phased development of the affordable units within a separate apartment
building, and grant an 18 percent parking reduction. The planned
Roseland Village Mixed Use project including Design Review of
individual buildings and the plaza within Roseland Village will occur at a
City of Santa Rosa
Regular Meeting Minutes

City Council Regular Meeting Minutes - Final May 7, 2019
future date to be determined. The appeal asserts the Planning
Commission’s action is contrary to a private easement in that the
approved Tentative Map eliminates access across the back of the
neighboring Roseland Village Shopping Center; the Density Bonus
allows housing units which is contrary to the private recorded easement
and is against requirements affordable housing be incorporated within
and constructed simultaneously; and the project will eliminate over 270
currently available parking spaces to 70 spaces. PRJ17-075;
MAJ17-006, DB19-001.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Planning Commission
and the Planning and Economic Development Department that the
Council, by resolution, approved the Tentative Map and Density Bonus.

15.3 PUBLIC HEARING - ROSELAND VILLAGE TENTATIVE MAP AND
DENSITY BONUS. APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
ON THE TENTATIVE MAP AND DENSITY BONUS FOR THE
PLANNED ROSELAND VILLAGE MIXED USE PROJECT AT 665 & 883
SEBASTOPOL ROAD, SANTA ROSA, CA PRJ17-075; MAJ17-006,
DB19-001.
BACKGROUND: On February 28, 2019, the Planning Commission
approved the Roseland Village Tentative Map and Density Bonus by
voting 6 ayes, 0 noes, and 1 absent. The Tentative Map would
subdivide a 7.41-acre site into five lots, require subdivision
infrastructure improvements, and establish public and private street
circulation to accommodate the planned future development of three
apartment buildings with 175 units, including 75 affordable units, a
25,000 square foot civic building, a 5,000 square foot market place, and
a 1-acre public plaza. The Density Bonus allows a 34% increase in
residential density and three incentives/concessions which allow
phased development of the affordable units within a separate apartment
building, and grant an 18 percent parking reduction. The planned
Roseland Village Mixed Use project including Design Review of
individual buildings and the plaza within Roseland Village will occur at a
future date to be determined. The appeal asserts the Planning
Commission’s action is contrary to a private easement in that the
approved Tentative Map eliminates access across the back of the
neighboring Roseland Village Shopping Center; the Density Bonus
allows housing units which is contrary to the private recorded easement

and is against requirements affordable housing be incorporated within
and constructed simultaneously; and the project will eliminate over 270
currently available parking spaces to 70 spaces. PRJ17-075;
MAJ17-006, DB19-001.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Planning Commission
and the Planning and Economic Development Department that the
Council, by resolution, approved the Tentative Map and Density Bonus.
