We also request that signs be posted in both directions to warn drivers of the upcoming speed bump. Because Ninth Street provides the most convenient access to Prospect Street for nearby residents to the east, our street is used very heavily as a thoroughfare between Redondo Beach and Hermosa Beach. Many of those vehicles speed, which creates an extremely dangerous situation for the many children who reside on Ninth Street. We are hopeful that a speed bump will reduce the hazard that currently exists.

noted a two to three week difference as well as the imposition of a fee at the Redondo Beach Library; said State budget cuts would put an independent library at risk as well; Lynn Olson — Hermosa Beach, supported staying with the County;

said the books she wanted were rarely in the Hermosa Beach library, so she simply ordered them online and then picked them up at the library; Laura Guneau — Hermosa Beach, supported staying with the County, saying the issue was hours ofoperation versus the excellent access to books with the County library system, which she thought was one of the best in the world;

Margie Enders — Hermosa Beach, supported staying with the County, said if the current arrangement is not broken, why fix it, and said she was a happy patron of the county system; Naoma Valdes - Hermosa Beach, supported leaving the County, said provisions had been made in the past which would make it easy and inexpensive for the City to buy back the building from the County;

Roll Call Present: Commissioners Winnek (chairman, arrived at 7:21 p.m.), Cheatham (vice- chairman), Howell, Koch, Lombardo. Also Present: Harold Williams, Director of Public Works/City Engineer Michael Flaherty, Public Works Superintendent Ray Abassi, P.E., City Traffic Engineer Rhea Punneo, Administrative Assistant, Public Works Department 2. Flag Salute Mr. Cheatham led the flag salute. 3. Approval of Minutes The minutes of the September 18, 2002 meeting were approved as written with the following correction: Under Section 7. Commissioner's Reports, Commissioner Cheatham recommended providing a briefing on street repair standards to the City of Manhattan Beach. 4. Public Comments None. 5. Correspondence Mr. Williams directed the Commission's attention to a memo from Sol Blumenfeld, Director of Community Development, requesting participation in a survey on spending priorities. Mr. Williams requested that Commissioners give their completed surveys to Mr. Williams or the Community Development Department prior to October 28. 6. Items for Commission Consideration ... _ a. Request for Speed Control on 24th Street between Park Avenue and Valley Drive ` Mr. Williams introduced Mr. Ray Abassi, the City's Traffic Engineer who proceeded topresent the item: In response to a request from Mr. Robert Woodie, a Hermosa Beach resident, Mr. Abassi visited the site and subsequently came to the recommendation of posting advisory signs noting the safe speed limit and the 8%grade. 2d Review of the item and dllkssion among the Commissioners higlilted the following information: • Lowering the speed limit on 24th St. alone would require a much larger study of the area. • The street isn't wide enough to allow parking on both sides and two-way traffic. • Over a three-day period, it was determined that the 85th percentile of traffic speed was 18 mph (i.e., of the 2,167 cars that traveled the street in the three-day period, 85% were going 18 mph), 100-150 cars traveled in excess of 25 mph and only one car was clocked at a rate of over 30 mph. Coming forth to address the Commission: Mr. Robert Woodie, 524 24th Street Mr. Woodie commented that cars tend to go faster uphill rather than downhill, and tend to be louder since uphill travel requires more power. Mr. Woodie suggested that allowing parking on both sides of the street would create a natural barrier to• excessive uphill speed. He also expressed concern that while 85% of cars are traveling at a reasonable speed, it is the other 15% that account for the speed and noise problem. Mr. Abassi explained that the street is not wide enough to allow parking on both sides, and changing the street to one-way would shift traffic to other streets. Mr. Williams pointed out that the advisory sign could be handled as an administrative matter without action by the City Council. These signs are advisory only; the prima facie speed limit on residential streets is 25 mph, and the 15 mph advisory is not legally enforceable. Further discussion highlighted the following: • A recent traffic study of the valley area would be made available to the Commissioners. • There should be 22' of pavement, 11' in each direction for safe two-way traffic. • The pavement is 21' wide in front of Mr. Woodie's house. • To change the parking from one side of the street to the other would require council action and an environmental study. MOTION by Commissioner Lombardo to place 15 mph advisory signs on 24th Street and direct Staff use its discretion in posting W6 sign (grade) with W29A (15 mph) as appropriate. Ayes: Cheatham, Lombardo, Howell, Koch, Winnek Noes: None Abstain: None Absent: None 7. Commissioners' Reports Newsracks Commissioner Cheatham met with Staff and the City Attorney regarding newsracks. Staff will meet with publishers to get comments before going to Council. Staff will obtain information regarding enclosures to match the new waste receptacles about to be purchased. Tree Subcommittee Commissioner Howell is on the tree subcommittee; Mr. Flaherty provided Manhattan Beach with the City's current tree policy. Manhattan Beach requires property owners to repair damage within a fixed time frame. PWC Minutes 2 10/23/02 • 8. Council Agendas/Minutes — September, October Commissioner Cheatham commented that fixing streets and sewers is one of the highest priorities of the City. 9. Items Requested by Commissioners None. 10. Other Matters Commissioner Lombardo reminded the Commission that the Women's Club of Hermosa Beach is holding their tenth annual pancake breakfast from 8 a.m. to 12 noon on Sunday, October 20 at the Clark Building, 861 Valley Drive. The cost is $5 for adults and $3 for children. Commissioner Cheatham suggested that the new blue recycle bins are too large; the old ones fit conveniently in a garage. Mr. Cheatham talked to the mayor of El Segundo about the sewers. El Segundo has hired a lobbyist who supposedly has secured $300,000 in grant money for sewer projects, and this figure might rise to $1,000,000 next year; Hermosa Beach might explore this. Mr. Williams pointed out that according to his counterpart in El Segundo, this grant is a possibility but it hasn't happened yet. Commissioner Cheatham requested that when the street sweeping contract becomes due for renewal the Commission have the opportunity to review the statement of work to make comments and recommendations. Mr. Williams agreed that this would be done. Mr. Cheatham will not be at the meeting next month. The chair and vice -chair positions rotate annually; the procedure is in place for the next meeting. Mr. Flaherty mentioned that the Hazardous Waste Round -Up in Hermosa Beach is scheduled for Saturday, January 25, 2003. Mr. Cheatham advocated that this be widely advertised. 11. Public Comment None. 12. Adjournment The meeting was adjourned at 7:54pm. The next meeting will be on Wednesday, November 20, 2002 in Council Chambers. CERTIFICATION I hereby certify that the foregoing minutes are a true and complete record of the action taken by the Public Works Commission of Hermosa Beach at the regularly scheduled meeting of September 18, 2002.

CIP 00-411 SEWER AND STREET IMPROVEMENTS — TARGET AREA 1 APPROVE PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS, AND ADVERTISING FOR BIDS Recommendation: It is recommended that City Council: 1. Approve the plans, specifications, estimates, order the work and call for bids; and 2. Instruct the City Clerk to post Notice Inviting Sealed Bids for said project. Summary: Project No. CIP 00-411 Sewer and Street Improvements — Target Area 1 is approved for Fiscal Year 2002-03. Staff requests that City Council approve the plans, specifications and advertising for bids. The plans, specifications and estimates for these projects have been approved by the Director of Public Works and are available in the Department of Public Works for review. Background: In May 2002, City Council approved the Professional Services Agreement between the City and Berryman & Henigar for engineering and design services. The proposed sewer work consists of removing and replacing 8" sewer main, manholes, and lateral connections, and lining of some existing sewer mains. Staff attempted to maximize the use of "no -dig" technology, but many of the sewers were so damaged that neither lining nor spot repair could be used. Since the streets with proposed new sewers are so deteriorated and the street widths are so narrow, it was appropriate to design total reconstruction of those streets. The proposed street work consists of total reconstruction of the street section with 6" of concrete over 4" of aggregate base. Additional work includes, but is not limited to, traffic markings, adjustment of utility boxes, installation 'of concrete cross gutters, and handicap access ramps. The engineer's estimate is approximately $500,000 and the duration of construction is 45 working days. Fiscal Impact: No fiscal impact at this time.

Authorize the purchase of one (1) new Ford Explorer SUV from Midway Ford Sales of Los Angeles, California BACKGROUND Fire Department vehicles are part of the inventory of the Equipment Replacement Fund. The City budgeted in fiscal year 2001/2002 for the purchase of one (1) Fire Department staff vehicle, which did not occur. The Fire Department has identified a SUV style for utilization as an incident command vehicle, and to satisfy general department load carrying requirements. The City solicited sealed bids for two makes of vehicles from qualified vendors. One, a new Dodge Durango SLT, and the other, a new Ford Explorer XLT, both with V8, automatic, two -wheel drive, and trailer tow package. It has been determined that the Ford Explorer XLT meets the special configuration needs of the Fire Department having the ability to accommodate center console radio equipment that the Dodge Durango SLT cannot. Midway Ford Sales in Los Angeles bid the lowest price of $26,752.91 for the Ford Explorer XLT. This price includes the 8.25% sales tax. FISCAL IMPACT The funds required for the purchase of this vehicle were re -appropriated by Council at the meeting of September 24, 2002, to the Equipment Replacement Fund for the current fiscal year 2002/2003. The total cost is $26,752.91.

AWARD CONTRACT FOR RESURFACING TWO BASKETBALL COURTS AT CLARK STADIUM Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Award the bid to resurface two basketball courts at Clark Stadium to the lowest responsible bidder, California Surfacing of Claremont, California, in the amount of $7,295.00; and 2. Authorize the Director of Public Works to make minor changes as necessary. Background: Specifications were prepared and requests for bid notices were sent to four (4) interested and qualified companies. In addition, this project was advertised in the Easy Reader and McGraw Hill Construction/Dodge (The Green Sheet) publications. On Thursday, October 10, 2002, a non -mandatory pre-bid meeting and site inspection were held. On Thursday, October 17, 2002, the City Clerk received four bids. The bids were publicly opened and read aloud. The bid results are as follows: Firm Name 81. _ Taylor Tennis_Courts 2. California Surfacing 3. Malibu Pacific Tennis Courts 4.

The current condition of the basketball courts indicates the product used was not durable enough for the type of use these courts endure. The specifications listed Vynasil as the desired surface material. Two of the bids received included the original surfacing material rather than the Vynasil as specified. Vynasil has proven to be the better product at the roller hockey rink. The lowest responsible bidder for the specified surface product is California Surfacing of Claremont, California. 2j Fiscal Impact: • Funding for this project is available in account number 125-6101-4201.

The Commission directed staff to return with a draft text amendment to allow sidewalk signs and further directed staff to notify all businesses in the City prior to considering the matter. The draft text amendment was approved on November 20, 2001 and the matter was to be referred to the Public Works Commission relative -to encroachments on the public right-of-way. Subsequently the City Council requested that the matter be referred to City Council for disposition. Analysis Several Zone Code and Municipal Code changes are necessary to remove the prohibition and ;permit the placement of signs on public sidewalks. Both the sign ordinance in the Zone Code and most of Chapter 12.16 of the Municipal Code must be amended pertaining to commercial encroachments. New detailed standards are proposed under the draft text amendment with respect to type, size, placement (or content and colors) that require additional staff resources to administer and enforce effectively. From an administrative and enforcement perspective, it is more advantageous to either retain the prohibition, or if sidewalk signs are permitted, to allow the signs without permits and without extensive regulations which can be achieved by simply specifying one type of permissible sign. The Commission considered that the sign ordinance currently allows several types of pedestrian oriented signs that can be displayed permanently or on a temporary basis as follows: • ._Projecting Signs - for business identification in the downtown district, these can project over the sidewalk three feet from the building face with an 8 -foot clearance below. • Window Signs — these do not require a permit if less than 10 square feet and can cover up to 20% of the window. • Temporary Banner Signs — up to 90 days in the calendar year • . Wall Signs • Awning Signs • Monument Signs • Pole Signs (in the C-3 Zone) • • Staff noted that with these opportunities for placement of pedestrian oriented signs, the addition of portable or sidewalk signs was unnecessary and would lead to visual clutter and a proliferation of obstacles along city sidewalks. Staff also noted that pedestrian orientation in the downtown does not occur along other commercial corridors in the City and there are aesthetic and safety impacts on Pacific Coast Highway and Aviation Boulevard that should be consideredprior to approving the proposed change. These concerns include safety and liability issues relative to pedestrians and increased potential for traffic accidents due to reduced visual obstructions created by sidewalk signs. Discussion of Sidewalk Sign Location The Commission considered the location of such signs against store -fronts and along the curb and felt that•sign location closer to.the street would make them more visible to traffic, but that the signs would be competing with posted traffic and parking signs, power poles, street trees and other obstructions, limiting their visibility. Signs located closer to the building would eliminate the conflict with other public signage but reduce visibility along the street. Staff noted that if the location for the sign is adjacent to the store -front in order to maintain pedestrian clearance, it is no different than a window sign or projecting sign already permitted in the downtown. of Blumen Community Concur:•, .

Suggested Text Amendment Changes to the Municipal Code sidewalksignsTA Suggested Modifications to Municipal Code to Permit Sidewalk Signs I. Modify Section 17.50.080 Prohibited Signs sub -section (B) to read as follows: B. In addition the following signs are prohibited: 1. Billboards 2. Mobile Signs, Including portable signs and A -frame signs or sides alk signs. (except sidewalk signs subject to the requirements of Sections 17.50.120, 17.50.130 or 17.50.140) 3. Moving signs 4. Off -Premises Signs (except real estate signs and sidewalk signs) 5. Projecting Signs (except for business identification in C-1 and C-2 zones) 6. Roof Signs (with the following exceptions) • Signs located on pre-existing architectural projections extending above a roof line that have historically been used for sign purposes. • Signs located on projections above the roof line that are deemed by the Planning Commission to be architectural projections that are part of the architecture of the building and not solely for sign purposes. 7. Wind Signs 8. Sign other than those which are permitted in the zone as set forth in this chapter II. Modify Sections17.50.120, 17.50.130, and 17.50.140 pertaining to Sign Requirements in the C-1, C-2 and C-3 zones as followws , Add "one sidewalk sign per business" as a permitted style of sign under sub -section (B) of these Sections. Modify sub -section (C) regarding Projection Height and Location of these Section to add subsection (C)4. To read as follows: 4. Sidewalk signs shall be located on the sidewalk or plaza directly in front of the business being advertised. The sign shall be located so as not to interfere with pedestrians, maintaining a minimum 44" clearance from the building. The sign shall be a maximum 18" wide and a maximum 42" in height. Options: Location: Provide option to place directly in front of the business, or out along the curb line, with minimum clearance for pedestrians. Size/Dimensions: Establish a uniform sign standard so they all are same height and width with same clearance from ground to bottom of sign, or allow some creativity within a maximum height and width. Content/Color: Either no regulation on content and color, or limit content to business and product identification sold on the premises (i.e. no advertising logos for corporate sponsors) and limit colors. III. Modify Section 17.50.040 Permits Required Options: Add sidewalk signs to list of signs not requiring sign permits since an encroachment permit will be required, or require a sign permit and review fee for compliance with sign standards, and separate permit for encroachment. IV. Chapter 12.16, Encroachments. This chapter establishes the permitting requirements for permitted encroachments and is primarily related to residential encroachments for such things as fences, retaining wall, landscaping, etc. The 3 • •j only permitted commercial encroachment is for commercial outdoor dining in conjunction with a conditional use permit. Newsracks are regulated by a separate chapter, 12.32. Sidewalk signs could be incorporated into either section, and would require extensive language to prevent interference with pedestrian/vehicular traffic or the use of various other structures in the right of way such as posts, traffic signs, signals, hydrantts, or sidewalk cleaning mechanisms. Many of these same issues are address in Chapter 12.32 relating to newsrack locations. Also of concern is the liability for both pedestrians and vehicles. Staff believes these issues are more appropriately discussed by the Public Works staff and the Public Works Commission for the appropriate regulations. The Zoning Ordinance sign provisions were never intended to supersede or conflict with other ordinance provisions that deal with the use of public sidewalks. u C . man Perrotti closed. the public hearing. Commissione 'izer expressed approval of the modification which looks better. Commissioner Tucker sa . that he will vote no on this request for consistency . . oses, since he never liked the elevation on t - ast side. Chairman Perrotti stated that he likes the s - cks and windows two large windows rather than four small windows. He also said he likes the ch doo : at replace the windows.

TEXT 01-7 — SIGN ORDINANCE STUDY ON CURRENT PROHIBITION OF SIDEWALK SIGNS (CONTINUED FROM SEPTEMBER 18 AND OCTOBER 16, 2001 MEETINGS). Staff Recommended Action: To direct staff as deemed appropriate. Director Blumenfeld gave a staff report and said that the issue before Commission involves consideration as to whether signs for private businesses could be placed on public property for advertising purposes. He said a business owner originally wrote the City requesting that the Sign Code be changed to permit one sidewalk sign per business and to place limitations on the size and placement of the signs to avoid obstructing pedestrians. The business under this proposal would need to assume liability for these signs in a public right-of-way. Currently, both the Sign Code and Municipal Code prohibit placing signs which encroach into the public right-of-way and the Codes would have to be amended if the proposed change were approved. The Sign Code prohibits mobile signs including portable signs, A -frame signs or sidewalk signs. The regulations intend to protect the City from liability of obstructions on the sidewalk and also to minimize the amount of signage on a business for aesthetic reasons. He noted that most cities have similar regulations about signs in a public right-of-way except for menu board signs which are sometimes allowed in downtown districts. He pointed out that the Sign Code already allows a certain amount of signage which is meant to address pedestrian orientation. He also said that awnings could be installed which could act as an identification information for the business. He further said that staff feels that it is arguable that the level of pedestrian signage is adequate given the provisions of the Sign Code. He said that a business has an opportunity to install a wall sign or monument sign as well. He also said that there is ample opportunity to install a window sign and the City's Sign Code is not overly restrictive. It is also arguable that if every business were to install a sidewalk sign, it would be virtually impossible to ensure pedestrian access. He said P.C. Minutes 11-20-01 i•y that staff is looking for direction from Commission as to whether or not A -frame or sidewalk signs are to be permitted. In response to Commissioner Pizer, Director Blumenfeld said that other cities may allow menu boards but these are not allowed in Hermosa Beach. In response to Chairman Perrotti, Director Blumenfeld noted that it is possible to have different sign provisions for different areas of the City and the Sign Code reflects a geographic area for the C 1, C2 and C3 zones. Chairman Perrotti opened the public hearing. Emily Baum, Emily's Piano Studio, requested the possibility of the use of signs in downtown for the businesses. She said that they have had meetings with local business members with studies to verify that signs are compatible. She said that the businesses need the signs which will help their success. She presented a picture and list of business owners. Ron Newman supports the small businesses in Hermosa Beach. He said that there are a lot of tourist businesses in Hermosa Beach and the signs are needed. He also said that he took pictures up and down the coast of various cities. He suggested setting standards in the City with a simple way of over-the-counter approval of custom signs. He presented pictures of signs to the Commission. Edward , said that the signs have been tested and work very well and the message on the signs would attract customers. He also said that the signs help the retail in Hermosa Beach. He indicated that safety would not be a factor. He also believed that if signs are not allowed, it would be discriminatory. He also informed that at their meetings, it was suggested that a nice looking sign would be appropriate and that the owner could apply for a permit. Bill Robb, Treasure Chest, indicated that retail is tough and seasonal and all the help they can get is needed. He said that the Plaza directs customers to walk down the center of the street close to the businesses. He said that a portable sign gives customers direction into his business. He stated that he would agree with an annual feel for insurance, permits, etc. He also agreed with maintaining an appropriate pedestrian egress, and a size limit for a sign is deemed appropriate. He also said that standardization should be limited to allow each business to express itself. He stated that safety is necessary. Ron Newman stated that at their meetings, they discussed the size of the sign being possibly 6 feet, and also fees for insurance were discussed. He also said that a regular standard size sign would be appropriate and said that they could come up with some further guidelines. Emily Baum further said that at their meetings, they discussed a plan which would allow the signs to be similar in a certain size and not create a hazard for the pedestrians. Also, applying for a permit could be a possibility. She said that freedom of expression and attracting customers was discussed. Bill Robb suggested that a sign be 6 square feet if there is enough space and room for pedestrians. P.C. Minutes 11-20-01 Chairman Perrotti closed the public hearing. Commissioner Hoffman expressed concern with aesthetic issues and too much signage could be less attractive for the City with a smaller potential customer population. He said that a legal liability would not be an issue, and the Economic Development Review Committee may be coming up with some recommendations addressing specifically the commercial districts in the City which may include this signage issue. Commissioner Pizer believed that there should be further investigation and study on this issue. He expressed concern with aesthetics and all business having the opportunity to be equal. He said that an encroachment permit- with an annual fee, insurance and standards for the sign support and maximum sign size would be needed. Commissioner Kersenboom agreed and said that a sign permit, size requirement, design review, type of material, etc., are necessary and perhaps a trial period could be examined. Commissioner Tucker said that the Plaza design originally had some kiosks and thought they may be intended for use for some of the isolated businesses. He said that there are some areas on Hermosa Avenue that are not very wide. He pointed out that most of the cities that he visited on his tour up and down the coast had no signboards on the streets. Chairman Perrotti expressed concern with liability with signs on a public right-of-way and suggested that liability insurance may be needed. He suggested that a pilot program be adopted for a limited period of time with definite requirements in place such as a permitting process and sign review. He concurred that a lot of cities do not allow these signs at all and they may not be the best thing for the City as a whole. He also expressed disapproval with having the signs out on Friday, Saturday and Sunday only. In response to Chairman Perrotti, Director Blumenfeld informed that the Economic Development Review Committee is preparing a report which is intended to be presented to the City Council in December dealing with a number of issues, and this sign issue could fit within a regulatory . recommendation. Ron Newman said that the Committee discussed looking at different types of signs. He pointed out that if there were a sign approval, it does not mean every business would have a sign. He also questioned liability with newsracks, mailboxes, planters, etc. In response to Mr. Newman, Director Blumenfeld informed that the City receives trip and fall lawsuits. Mr. Newman also said that on Hermosa Avenue, signs are against the building. He also noted that many other cities have a strong marketing tourist attraction, and Hermosa Beach is very weak on their marketing. He believed that a decision should be delayed until a final plan is submitted. He also pointed out that the City needs all the tax revenue possible. P.C.

October 29, 2002 Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of November 12, 2002 MODIFICATION OF POLICY CONCERNING WORK IN THE PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY - SIDEWALKS Recommendation: That the City Council review the policy concerning paving at grade in the public right-of- way and provide direction to staff. Background: The City Council received a request from Councilmember Reviczky to review the existing policy concerning work in the public right-of-way done by the property owner. The request was the result of a property owner installed concrete driveway approach and sidewalk that does not meet City standards. Under the present policy, no permit for this work was or isrequired. If this driveway approach and sidewalk was being done in conjunction with a building permit, the property owner would have had to construct these improvements to meet the standards. The City Council last dealt with this issue at your July 9, 2002 meeting. This was the issue of a property owner being stopped from re -doing some existing paving in the right- of-way on Golden Avenue. The property owner was stopped because no encroachment or construction permit had been issued. The resulting policy was adopted by the City Council — "That the City Council approve a policy change by directing that at -grade improvements that involve paving such as interlocking pavers, bricks, concrete, etc. shall not be subject to issuance of an encroachment permit." The policy could be modified to state that when the at -grade improvement is to be concrete continuation of an existing public sidewalk, an encroachment/construction permit must be obtained and must meet City standards. This would ensure that the improvement is inspected and constructed of appropriate materials. The only difficulty with this is providing notice to property owners that they need to obtain an encroachment/construction permit. Respectfully submitted, 1 Stephen R. Burrell City Manager 6b Honorable Mayor and Members of the October 28, 2002 Regular Meeting of Hermosa Beach City Council November 12, 2002 SUBJECT: DOWNTOWN GATEWAY SIGN PIER AVENUE AND PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY Recommendation: That the City Council direct staff to proceed with implementing the proposed sign and refer the matter to the Public Works Commission for development of a design and cost estimate. Background: The Downtown Implementation Plan approved by the City in 1994, calls for streptscape improvements along Pier Avenue as part of the downtown's revitalization. Pier Plaza was the first element of the Plan that was implemented in 1996. Gateway signs identifying the main entry to the downtown and located on both sides of the street at Pier Avenue and Pacific Coast Highway are among the improvements identified in the plan. Recently the Economic Development Committee suggested implementing many of the other elements called for in the Downtown Plan. Please see attached plan. Analysis: The property at Pier Avenue and Pacific Coast Highway is being developed with a new bank. The bank project is nearly complete and has been designed to incorporate a location for the proposed downtown gateway sign located on the southeast corner of the property. Electrical conduit and an irrigation line has been installed in order to service the City's proposed sign. Please see attached bank site plan. Since the south side of the street is public property, it is also possible to design the downtown gateway on both sides of Pier Avenue as suggested in the Downtown Plan. Staff suggests that if the Council wants to proceed with implementing this proposed improvement that design work commence now that the bank's site work is nearly complete. Since irrigation and electrical conduit has been stubbed to the sign location, the gateway sign can be constructed with minimal disruption to the bank property. A draft lease agreement has been prepared by the City Attorney, with a nominal one dollar per year payment in order to permit entry to the property to construct and service the proposed sign on the bank property. t►/ ..4,itiarliC.J of Blumenfld, rector Community :1 evelopment Department Concur: Steph'R.'B`u`rrell, City Manager gateway Attachments: 1.

Recommendation: That the City Council: 1. Review the implementation measures outlined in the report and; 2. Direct staff to prepare a text amendment to the Zone Code and; 3. Refer the matter to the Planning Commission for consideration in January 2003. Background: A moratorium ordinance prohibiting the change of existing retail space to restaurant use will expire on November 13, 2002.. The intent of the moratorium was to preserve existing downtown retail space by providing time to study potential ways to guide land use and parking demand. With the expiration of the moratorium in November, it will again be permissible to convert existing retail to restaurant use. On October 22, 2002, the Council reviewed several implementation measures relating to guiding future development to achieve a balance of uses and directed staff to refine these measures for further discussion. The intent of the proposed changes are to encourage additional retail and office uses that will ensure the continued viability of the Downtown, and to encourage uses that will help balance parking demand in the downtown. Analysis: The proposed regulation revisions selected by Council to encourage retail and office use and discourage increased restaurant development in the downtown include the following: 1. Setting a new retail base line for the required parking calculation for all existing downtown uses. 2. Increasing the parking ratio requirement for restaurant use 3. Decreasing the parking ratio requirement for. retail/ office use. Staff has surveyed twenty cities relative to parking regulations for restaurants and found that the City's regulations are similar to many cities although some are more restrictive. (Please see attached survey). The parking ratios range from 10 /1000 sq. ft. of gross floor area to 20/1000 sq. ft. of gross floor area with the higher ratios generally tied full service restaurants and larger restaurants or seating area. The City's Zone Code provides certain parking regulations that are specific to the downtown and some, which are citywide. Staff suggests that the conditions in the downtown are unique and that the proposed more restrictive standards should apply to the downtown exclusively as there does not appear to be similar use or parking problems elsewhere in the City. Current Parking Requirement for Restaurants and Retail/Office: • Restaurant: 1 space/100 Sq. Ft. gross floor area or 10/1000 sq. ft. ■ Retail/Office: 1 space/250 SF gross floor area or 4 /1000 sq. ft. • One in -lieu parking space fee: $12,500/space • Change of Use: Parking requirements are based on the Difference of the existing use and new use. • Discussion of Proposed Changes: Staff suggests that the Council consider the following changes to the Zone Code for the Downtown area. 1. New Retail Baseline for Calculating Parking: The proposed change to a retail baseline for calculating the parking requirement in the downtown means that all previous uses for a property which were more intensive (i.e. movie theaters, assembly areas, bars, etc.) will now be considered at the lower retail parking ratio of 4 / 1000. The requirement for additional parking will be calculated as the dierence between the parking ratio for the new use and the required parking for retail/general commercial use. (Please see examples below). Setting the base line to the retail parking rate or reducing the requirement for retail parking further increases the requirement for restaurant conversions as shown on the attached table. This base line would be set at a specific date such as January 1, 2003 and would include all existing uses as of the cutoff date. This would mean historic uses not in place on January 1, 2003 would no longer be considered in determining parking credits. 2. New Restaurant Parking Requirement: The proposed increase in the restaurant parking ratio means that new restaurants will provide approximately 30% more parking. This change will result in 5 additional spaces per typical downtown project (or a total of 21 spaces) which if satisfied with an in lieu payment would cost $262,500. If a higher parking ratio was consider such as 15 spaces per 1000 sq. ft. the required parking increases to over 80% above the current standard at an in lieu fee cost of $362,500 and at 20 per 1000 the cost increases to $537,500. Clearly only a small increase in the parking requirement is needed to preclude retail to restaurant conversions, since it has such a large economic impact on project costs. Only a well -capitalized business can afford the cost to provide in lieu parking at 10 to 12 per 1000 and the added costs provide a significant hurdle for the development of a new or expanded restaurant. Furthermore, since virtually no on-site parking is available in the downtown, the only means to provide parking is through an in lieu payment program which can be used to eventually construct consolidated public parking in the Vehicle Parking District. In most cases, the only way to meet the existing requirement or higher one is through the in lieu program. Unless there is a reasonable likelihood that a parking lot can be built in future it may not be a good idea to accept the in lieu payments. 2. New Retail/Office Parking Requirement: Currently, for new retail or office use, no additional parking is required based on the current code provisions. The proposal to relax parking for retail/office use means that expansions to existing commercial buildings will be required to provide 50% less parking or 50% less in lieu fees. The parking reduction would be a significant incentive to develop new retail space in the downtown. This proposed change effectively decreases the parking supply in the downtown and must also be approved by the Coastal Commission. • • Several sections of the Zone Code will require revisions in order to implement the proposed changes. Section 17.44.030 must be revised relative to proposed parking ratios for retail, office and restaurants. Section 17.44.010 must be revised to include a definition of the Vehicle Parking District (VPD): Section 17.44.040 must be revised for parking requirements in the downtown. Section 17.44.140 must be revised relative to setting a new baseline for parking. Section 17.44.190 must be revised relative to VPD parking. Conclusion: The current requirement of 10 spaces per 1000 sq. ft. for restaurant parking and the associated requirement to provide parking through the in lieu program presents a huge financial burden for any business. Changes to the ratio at 12 / 1000 or 15 /1000 further increase the parking hurdle without any real effect on discouraging conversions, since even at the current rate only the most financially secure businesses can hope to accommodate parking demand through the in lieu parking program. (Please see the attached tabulated information). In view of the hurdles currently in place, staff suggests that the best solution to creating parking balance among downtown uses is to set the baseline for calculating parking at the retail rate commencing from January 2003 and omitting any new parking restrictions. This control in conjunction with the in lieu fee program will continue to discourage retail to restaurant conversions due to cost. The City !nay accept in lieu parking solely at its discretion and providing parking in lieu for a project is always subject to discretionary permit and may ultimately be reviewed by the City Council. Since public parking is well supplied in the daytime, and since no additional parking is required to occupy an existing downtown space, it is unnecessary to make changes to the retail parking requirements. �ii 1�.�r1�r`►� Sol : lumen 'eld, D 'rector Communit Development Department Concur: Sten : urrel City Manager Newparkdwntwn Attachments: 1.
