City of Sand City STAFF REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Vibeke Norgaard, City Manager SUBJECT: Cancellation of March 17 and June 16, 2026, Regular City Council Meetings DATE: March 3, 2026 _______________________________________________________________________ BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: Staff has reviewed the upcoming meeting calendar and anticipated agenda items and has determined that business can be accommodated at other regularly scheduled meetings without operational impact. Cancelling these meetings will allow for efficient use of staff resources while maintaining continuity of governance. If approved, notice of cancellation will be posted in accordance with applicable open meeting laws. CEQA: This action does not constitute a "project" as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines section 15378. FISCAL IMPACT: Minor cost savings related to meeting preparation and staffing. No fiscal impact is anticipated. RECOMMENDATION: Approve the cancellation of the regularly scheduled City Council meetings of March 17, 2026 and June 16, 2026. 15

AGENDA ITEM 7A. Receive a Monterey One Water Update from Paul Sciuto (10 Minutes) 16

AGENDA ITEM 9A. Approve a Resolution Approving an Amendment to Conditional Use Permit 419 to Modify Parking Conditions at 1725 Contra Costa Street This item is continued from February 17, 2026. 17

City of Sand City STAFF REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Nicholas McIlroy, AICP, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Use Permit Amendment for 1725 Contra Costa Street (APN 011-177-024) to reduce the number of parking spaces due to the City of Sand City’s West End Stormwater project. DATE: March 3, 2026 – Continued from February 17, 2026 _______________________________________________________________________ BACKGROUND: On June 18, 2002, the City Council approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 419 to establish a wholesale showroom, sales, and storage of stonework flooring materials within a portion of an existing commercial building located at 1725 Contra Costa Street (APN 011- 177-024) in Sand City. Condition of Approval (COA) No. 5 required a minimum of thirteen (13) parking spaces onsite to serve the business. On July 20, 2010, the City Council approved an amendment to CUP 419 allowing Carmel Stone Imports to expand and conduct operations throughout the entire building at 1725 Contra Costa Street. As part of that amendment, COA No. 5 was modified to clarify parking requirements and the City’s discretion over on-street parking within the public right-of-way through issuance of an encroachment permit. DISCUSSION: The City of Sand City has completed design plans for the West End Stormwater Project and will soon release a Request for Proposal (RFP) prior to beginning construction. The project includes improvements within the public right-of-way (ROW) along Contra Costa Street in front of 1725 Contra Costa Street, where Carmel Stone currently utilizes twelve (12) perpendicular parking spaces located within the ROW. Pursuant to COA No. 5, Carmel Stone is required to maintain an encroachment permit with the City. City records indicate that there is no active encroachment permit on file for the subject property. As such, the City retains full discretion over the use of the public right-of- way, and the proposed removal or modification of these spaces does not constitute a removal of vested rights. 18

This request represents an exceptional circumstance, as the parking impacts are the result of a City-initiated public infrastructure project, not a change in the intensity or scope of the approved private use. In recognition of this condition, and to avoid imposing undue hardship on the existing business, the City proposes to modify the Conditions of Approval to waive the on-site parking requirements for the existing use only. Accordingly, staff recommends approval of an amendment to CUP 419 modifying parking requirements as reflected in Exhibit B. FINDINGS: The proposed amendment to CUP 419 is consistent with:  The 2023 West End Parking Plan,  The Sand City General Plan, and  Applicable provisions of the Sand City Zoning Code, including Section 18.64.070. CEQA: This action qualifies for a Categorical Exemption under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities), as it involves a minor modification to an existing use within an existing developed site and does not result in an expansion of use or intensity or create any new environmental impacts. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resolution approving an amendment to Conditional Use Permit 419 to modify the parking Condition of Approval as shown in Exhibit B. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Resolution SC26- , 2026  Exhibit A – Findings  Exhibit B – Conditions of Approval 2. CUP 419 and 2010 Amendment 19
