Burrell P-rsonnel & Risk Man- •ement Concur: City Manager July 7, 2005 City Council Meeting July 12, 2005 Mayor and Members of the City Council EXTENSION OF CONTRACT FOR PUBLICATION OF LEGAL, ADVERTISING Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached three-year contract for legal publications with the Easy Reader newspaper. Background: The current advertising contract with the Easy Reader expired on June 30, 2005. It had been extended for three years in 1999 and again in 2002, based on the City Attorney's legal opinion that since the Easy Reader is an adjudicated newspaper of general circulation published in the Hermosa Beach, the City may not use a newspaper published outside the city for its legal publications; and, further, since the Easy Reader is the only newspaper ofgeneral circulation published in the city, the City may contract for terms longer than one year. The Easy Reader has maintained an excellent working relationship with the City and has agreed to an extension of contract for three years. The negotiated rates for the first year are $9.50 per column inch for both legal and display ads and. $9 per column inch for subsequent insertions, which are the same rates the City has paid for the past six years. In the event the City requests a display notice to be placed in the editorial section of the newspaper (which so far we have never needed to do), the rate would be $27 per column inch. The Easy Reader has proposed a possible annual increase equal to the CPI for the second and third year of the contract. (See attached letter from the Easy Reader.)

Flaq Salute Commissioner Beste led the flag salute. 3. Approval of Minutes: March 23, 2005 4. Public Comment None 5. Correspondence None 6. Items for Commission Consideration Please note that while items were presented out of order, they are presented in order for clarity. a. Disabled Parking Spaces Mr. Morgan presented the item, first updating all on the history of disabled parking spaces for residents in Hermosa and ending with the direction from Council at the March 22, 2005 meeting "to review all current handicapped parking spaces on residential public streets and establish a formal policy for granting these parking spaces taking into consideration such factors as whether the applicant has a garage and/or driveway; the possible requirement for Social Security Administration documentation of permanent disability, and a specific period of time for review of the continued need for a handicapped. space at each location, along with consideration for dealing with temporary disabilities." He noted that staffs recommendation is a subcommittee of Commissioners be established to look at this more closely and develop new policies for these spaces. Mr. Flaherty noted that at this time there are 21 such spaces in Hermosa, including the newest on Monterey. He also noted that he believes many of the existing spaces would not qualify during a new review. 2g General discussion among the ommissioners ensued, highlights include • There is much divisiveness over parking among neighbors; this is a very emotional subject. • If necessary, ramps could be built on private property to allow for vehicle access on one's own property. • There is a definite need for clear, consistent, fair guidelines. • Commissioners Lombardo and DiVirgilio volunteered to be on the subcommittee. • Could be embarrassing for some to be put in front of a public hearing to discuss their disabilities; would be good to make the policy so clear that only extreme cases could need to go to the public hearing level. • Look at other communities — some similar to Hermosa where parking is so dear, where density of housing is as intense. • The policy, once determined and approved by the Commission, would then go to Council for public hearing and final approval/direction to implement. • Largest complaint is about perceived misuse. The subcommittee consisting of Commissioners Lombardo and DiVirgilio will bring a report to the meeting of June 15, 2005. b. Capital Improvement Projects for FY 2005-2006 Mr. Morgan presented the item noting that they have striven to include a lot of street projects as a result of the recent Pavement Management Study. The streets rated as "Worst" in the study — 0-10 points where 0 is worst and 100 is best. He reviewed the CIP spreadsheet noting that the overall higher project cost total since the major portion of the available funding will not be going to the pier renovation. He noted that there will be several utility undergrounding projects. He added that the City would be receiving $1.9 million for their lifeguard station, which is a big part of the pier renovation. Highlights of the discussion included: • Some of the streets requiring repair will also require sewer work, work more intense than lining • The Little League wants to do,a new announcer's booth and snack bar • A project for the improvement of lighting on The Strand is included • Key to pole replacement in the downtown area fixtures is matching the existing footprint • Focusing finally on City Yard — setting stage to demo and redo in order to enhance efficiency More ADA changes are in store for the Community Center • Anticipate Pier Renovation to be complete by late August • Tree Ordinance to come back to PWC one more time before to Council • Date of Budget Workshop to be emailed to Commissioners. 7. Commissioners' Reports No reports were presented. 8. Public Works Department Reports No questions or comments. 9. Items Requested by Commissioners No reports were presented. 10. Other Matters Mr. Morgan announced that Public Works Week is this week and said how proud he is of "our men in orange." PWC Meeting 2 5/18/05 11.

Authorize the purchase in the amount of $211,087.50 to Wheeled Coach Industries, Inc. for two transport ambulances. 2. Appropriate funds from the Equipment Replacement Fund. BACKGROUND The two existing fire department ambulances are in immediate need of replacement. The fire department has researched replacement transport ambulances and has determined the current City of Los Angeles Fire Department transport ambulance specifications with a few Hermosa Beach modifications are suited for Hermosa Beach. The City of Los Angeles Fire Department currently is having ambulances built by Wheeled Coach Industries, Inc. and the fire department is in position to save the city costs by "piggy- backing" on to the existing Los Angeles City Fire Department Bid Specification. The fire department requests council to award ; a bid of $195,000 plus sales tax to Wheeled Coach Industries, Inc. for two transport ambulances to be built to the City of Los Angeles Fire Department transport ambulance specifications with Hermosa Beach modifications. FISCAL IMPACT No funds were appropriated in the 2005-06 budget pending analysis of the ambulance transport program. Funds are available in the Equipment Replacement Fund for appropriation at this time. The total cost for both ambulances including sales tax is $211,087.50. 2h Respectfully submitted, Russell Tingley Fire Chief Concur: lili See nun. ell City Manager Noted for Fiscal Impact: Viki Copeland Finance Director • HONORABLE MAYOR and MEMBERS of the Regular Meeting of HERMOSA BEACH CITY COUNCIL • July 12, 2005 7 /aN).5 SUBJECT: FINAL MAP NO. 060281 (C.U.P. CON NO. 03-11, PDP NO. 03-14) LOCATION: 706 MONTEREY BOULEVARD APPLICANT: LANCE LIBIANO REQUEST: TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING FINAL MAP FOR A TWO -UNIT CONDOMINIUM PROJECT Recommendation Staff recommends approval of Final Parcel Map No. 060281, which is consistent with the approved Vesting Tentative Parcel Map, and recommends the City. Clerk be directed to endorse thecertificate for said map. Background The Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit for a two -unit condominium project and Vesting Tentative Parcel Map No.060281 at their October 21, 2003 meeting. The project is currently under construction. Process Once a map has been tentatively approved by the Planning Commission, copies of the tentatively approved map must be submitted to the L.A. County Engineer, who is contracted by the City, to review the map for its technical correctness (pursuant to Section 66442(a)(4) of the Subdivision Map Act). An applicant has two years from the date of tentative map approval to submit for final map approval. Typically applicants have not submitted for final map approval until projects are near completion and ready to be sold. Final maps must be submitted to the City Council and must be approved by the City Council, "...if it conforms to all the requirements of [Subdivision Map Act] and any localsubdivision ordinance applicable at the time of approval or conditional approval of the tentative map and any rulings made thereunder...." pursuant to Section 66458(a) of the Subdivision Map Act. Analysis The staff has reviewed the Final Map and found it substantially consistent with the Vesting Tentative Parcel Map approved by the Planning Commission and in conformance with the State Subdivision Map Act.

WHEREAS, the City Council held a meeting on July 12, 2005 and made the following Findings: A. This project will not violate any of the provisions of Sections 66427.1, 66474, 66474.1, and 66474.6 of the Subdivision Map Act; B. The proposed subdivision, together with the provisions for its design and improvement, is consistent with the General Plan required by Article 5 (commencing with Section 65300) of Chapter 3 of Division 1 of the Government Code, or any specific plan adopted pursuant to Article 8 (commencing with Section 65450) of Chapter 3 of Division 1 of the Government Code; C. The development of the property in the manner set forth on the subject division of land will not unreasonably interfere with the free and complete exercise of any public entity and/or public utility rights-of-way and/or easements within the subject division of land; D. The approval of said map is subject to all conditions outlined in Planning Commission Resolution P.C. No. 03-58 adopted after hearing on October 21, 2003; E. This project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to 15268(b)(3), "Approval of final subdivision maps", of the California Environmental Quality Act. NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, does hereby resolve as follows: 1. Pursuant to the recommendation of the Planning Commission and to the recommendation of the County Engineer, the City Council does hereby grant final approval of Parcel Map No.060281 in the City of Hermosa Beach, State of California, being a Subdivision of Lot 9, and a portion of lot 8 of Tract No. 1072 as per map recorded in Book 17, Page 137 of Maps in the Office of the Recorder of Los Angeles County, for a two -unit condominium project on land commonly known as 706 Monterey Boulevard, Hermosa Beach, California. PASSED, APPROVED, and ADOPTED this 12th day of July, 2005. PRESIDENT of the City Council and Mayor of the City of Hermosa Beach, California ATTEST: APPROVED AS TO FORM: CITY CLERK CITY ATTORNEY F:\B95\CD\fm706mont-rs.doc • July 5, 2005 2/J -Vas Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular Meeting of the Hermosa Beach City Council July 12, 2005 AWARD PURCHASE OF NEW PUBLIC WORKS VEHICLE Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Award the purchase of one (1) 2005 Chevrolet Silverado Truck in the amount of $27,284.87; 2. Authorize Staff to reappropriate funds from budget year 04-05 from the Equipment Replacement fund for this purchase; 3. Authorize an additional appropriation of $1,035; and 4. Authorize Staff to issue the appropriate purchase documents as required. Summary: Public Works vehicles are part of the inventory in the Vehicle Replacement Fund. The 1989 Chevrolet Astrovan used by Equipment Service Division personnel was identified in the FY 04-05 Adopted Budget as scheduled for replacement and $26,250 was allocated for this purpose. This request is for the purchase of a new truck with utility bed package to replace that Astrovan. Because this purchase was not completed in FY 04-05, staff is requesting that the funds be reappropriated at this time so that staff can make the purchase. Staff recommends that Council authorize the purchase of this vehicle from Wondries Fleet Group of Alhambra, California as they hold the sole contract (Bids #0364375 and #207488) with the County of Los Angeles. They are also the provider of many Public Works vehicles in the County fleet. Since Wondries Fleet Group has an established government contract with the County, City policy allows the purchase of equipment from a sole source vendor under these conditions. This is considered a "piggyback" purchase and is standard within the industry. Fiscal Impact: After the reappropriation of $26,250 from Equipment Replacement Fund, an additional appropriation of $1,035 is necessary to purchase the requested replacement vehicle.

QUOTATION WILL BE HONORED FOR 30 DAYS Quotation #:0089351 July 7, 2005 Honorable Mayor and Members of The Hermosa Beach City Council City Council Meeting of July 12, 2005 Appeal of Employee Relations Officer's Determination on Request for Unit Modification Recommendation Staff recommends that the City Council refer the appeal to the City's Civil Service Board for a hearing and final determination. The City Council also has the option to review the matter and make a determination. If the City Council chooses this option the representative from the Professional and Administrative Employees Association has requested that a separate City Council meeting be scheduled prior to a regular meeting to consider the matter. Background On February 7, 2005 the City received a request from the Public Works Inspector to change bargaining units from the current General and Supervisory Employees Association represented by the Teamsters, Local 911 to the Professional and Administrative Employees Association represented by the City Employees Associates. The procedures for filing and processing such requests are spelled out in the City's • Employer -Employee Relations Resolution (EERR). The request was reviewed and evaluated considering the criterion established in the EERR and was denied. The denial was sent to the affected employee, the Professional and Administrative Employees Association and the General and Supervisory Employees Association on March 9, 2005. As provided in the EERR, an appeal of the determination was filed and received on March 24, 2005. The appeal process includes the provision for utilizing the services of a mediator in an effort to resolve the matter. The City contacted the State Mediation and Conciliation Service and began coordinating the mediation. ,.On May 3, 2005, the City received a subsequent request on behalf of the Professional and Administrative Employees Association (now calling themselves the Professional, Technical Employees Association) attempting to amend the original request of behalf of the Public Works Inspector to include a total of three classifications, Public Works Inspector, Building Inspector, and Code Enforcement Officer. The parties met with a mediator on June 14, 2005 and were unable to resolve the issue. Following the mediation, the Professional and Administrative Employees Association requested an appeal as provided in the EERR. 2k Analysis Attached for City Council review and information is, the original request from the Public Works Inspector, the determination in response to the request, the request for mediation on behalf of the Public Works Inspector, the request to modify the original request to include three classifications, and the request for appeal to the City Council. Staff has contacted the representative from the Professional and Administrative Employees Association and they are in agreement that this issue be heard before the City's Civil Service Board if that is the direction from the City Council. Section, 2.76.090 (B) of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code provides that when requested by the City Council or the City manager, the Civil Service Board shall hold hearings and make recommendations on any matter of personnel administration of the City Council or the City Manager. Respectfully Submitted: Concur: Michael Earl Personnel & Risk Management Director Sfephen Burrell City Manager From: Victor 0. Jackson 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, California February 7, 2005 Sub: Local Public Employee Organization, Teamsters: Request Unit Change To: City of Hermosa Beach 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, California Attn: Michael Earl, Personnel Director ISE EliV ED FEB 0 7 2005 Dear Mr. Earl, Please accept this letter as my formal request for removal from the union that currently represents me, and acceptance into the Professional & Administration Employees (P&AE) Association. I believe my interests are better served by the P&AE Association. As you know, as the Public Works. Inspector, I am a class of one (1). Thus my interests are unique and peculiarly different from most served by the Unit in which I am currently included. My present unit of representation includes (for the most part) manual labor employees who exercise little or no discretion in the performance of their duties. Conversely, I must use discretion in the performance of my duties daily. Resolution No: 90- 5343 (employer-employee organization relations resolution), Article I — General Provisions, Section 2. Definitions, sub -section g. reads as follows: "Administrative Employee" means an employee performing office or Non -manual work directly related to management policies or general business operations of the employer and such work includes the exercise of discretion and independent judgment." As the Public Works Inspector, I am responsible for: 1) issuing permits (work orders, and stop work orders: administrative, non -manual), 2) inspecting city projects, 3) making determinations (are they in compliance, does this present a hazard, stop work orders, issue citations/fines, all requiring discretion and independent judgment, non -manual), 4) plan checking (reading blueprints, checking them against city ordinances,, state regulations, non -manual), 5) calculating permit fees, 6) hazard prevention (non -manual, calling for discretion/judgment), 7) inter -agency correspondence (engineering/utilities/law enforcement/department heads), 1 • work order changes (i.e. a need to widen right-of-way, public notice rqmts; non - manual, independent judgment). All of the above responsibilities are non -manual, require the constant use of independent judgment, and particular experience and expertise (this position requires specialized knowledge). Moreover, they make me liable as a city representative in a way manual labor workers are not. For instance, if in exercising my independent judgment I decide a Contractor must widen a street and he thinks it unfair, I personally may be charged with discrimination because it is I who made the determination. Manual workers have no such authority or discretion. By definition they work according to routine procedure without exercising this type of authority. Because my duties are non -manual, require discretion and independent thinking, place a non -manual labor burden of liability upon me, require specialized knowledge of which I possess (college courses, certificate courses, prior experience), I petition the City to place me in the "Appropriate Unit", the Professional & Administration Employees Association. I respectfully request this change be effective immediately. Victor 0. Jackson City of Hermosa Beach, Public Works Inspector DATE: TO: FROM: SUBJECT: • • City of2-iermosa rl3eaclt� Civic Center, 1315 Valley Drive, Hermosa Beach, California 90254-3885 PERSONNEL DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM March 9, 2005 Victor Jackson, Public Works Inspector Michael Earl, Personnel Direct Request for Unit Change I have reviewed your request to change the bargaining unit for your classification of Public Works Inspector and provide the following response. As outlined in the City's Employer -Employee Organization Relations Resolution, there are five criteria in determining the appropriate unit designation for classifications within the City. Generally stated, these four criteria include: similarity of the general kinds of work performed, types of qualifications required and the general working conditions; history of representation within the City and similar employment; consistency with the organizational patterns of the City; number of employees and classifications, and the effect on the administration of employer-employee relations; and the effect on the classification structure and impact on the stability of employer-employee relationship of dividing a single or related classifications among two or more units. In addressing your request and in accordance with the above criteria I looked at the education and experience required of your position, the type of work performed, working conditions, unit history in the City, and similar employment in neighboring cities and have determined that your classification is appropriately assigned to the General and Supervisory Employees Association. There for your request is denied. Specifically, a majority of the classifications represented by the Professional and Administrative Employees bargaining unit require a higher educational level than the Public Works Inspector. Eight of the classifications require the possession of a bachelor's degree. Those that do not require similar to that of the Public Works Inspector but are administrative in nature or are Division Supervisors. The classifications in the Professional and Administrative group consist of managerial, supervisory or administrative employees. The employer-employee relations resolution specifically states that these responsibilities are determining factors in establishing appropriate units. The kind of work performed by you as a Public Works Inspector is more similar in nature to that performed by classifications in the General and Supervisory group. Your work is performed predominately in the field as opposed to an office environment. Your work is performed within established guidelines (i.e. municipal and building codes) and the decisions you make in the field involve enforcing those codes. Deviations from these policies should require input from a supervisor. Lastly, neighboring cities' also assign the Public Works Inspector classification to a general employee unit. Specifically, the cities of Manhattan Beach, El Segundo, and Redondo Beach have the same unit organization. I have provided a copy of your request and a copy of my determination to the Teamsters Local, 911 organization representing the General and Supervisory Employees Association as well as to, the City Employees Associates representing the Professional and Administrative Employees' Association in accordance with Section 10 of the Employer -Employee Relations Resolution. Section 11 of the Resolution provides for an appeal of my decision on unit determination. An aggrieved employee organization may file an appeal in accordance with Section 11 within fifteen (15) days of this notice. OI have attached a copy of the Resolution for reference. cc: Robin Nahin, City Employees Associates William Davis, Teamsters Local 911 Mike Earl From: Sent: To: Cc: Subject: Michael Koskie [mkcea0l@charter.net] Thursday, March 24, 2005 10:17 AM Mike Earl Robin Nahin Request for Unit Change Mr Earl: On behalf of Victor Jackson, we his request for Unit Change.

HERMOSA BEACH POLICE MANAGEMENT GROUP CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH Tom Eckert Police Captain Michael A. Earl. Personnel Director Tom Bohlin Viki Copeland Police Lieutenant Finance Director Lance Jaakola Police Lieutenant • July 6, 2005 ����" Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular Meeting of the Hermosa Beach City Council July 12, 2005. BONNIE BRAE UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT (UUD) Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council approve the following actions for the Bonnie Brae UUD: 1. Award of Contract to David Taussig & Associates, Inc. in the amount of $30,000 to provide Assessment Engineering services; 2. Award of Contract to Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth in the amount �f $41,000 to provide Bond Counsel services; 3. Award of Contract to Northcross, Hill & Ach in the amount of $25;000 as Financial Advisors for bond sales; 4. Authorize the City Manager to execute the above contracts on behalf of the City; and 5. Advance $30,000 from the Contingency Fund to the Bonnie Brae UUD to fund the contract services of David Taussig & Associates. Summary: The Bonnie Brae Underground Utility District (UUD) is bounded by Prospect Avenue, Aviation Boulevard, PCH and 18th Street. There are approximately 180 parcels within this district and the total cost is estimated to be approximately $3,000,000. Southern California Edison and Verizon have completed their designs and Adelphia is working on their design for this project. The next step is to begin the process of formation of the, district. Staff recommends staying with the assessment district team utilized on previous districts David Taussig & Associates, Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, and Craig Hill of Northcross, Hill & Ach. Taussig & Associates will develop the District Boundary Map and determine the spread of assessments. The $30,000 contract .amount will cover all their expenses through preparation of the Engineer's Report, balloting and preparing the Assessment Role. The cost for these services must be advanced by the City but will be reimbursed by the District upon successful formation The Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth contract amount of $41,000 includes the basic service amount of $25,000 for a bond sale of $1,000,000 to $2,500,000. If the bond sale exceeds $2,500,000 then there is extra fee of 1/10 of 1% of the exceedance amount. An extra $1,000 is included to provide for this possibility. There is also a $15,000 fee for issuance of a. disclosure statement. If the bonds are privately placed with an investor, as has been done in the recent past, then no disclosure statement was required. Because this is a much larger bond amount, it will be competitively bid and require a disclosure • statement. In addition to these costs, the City will also pay any out - 2n of -pocket expenses that Tlay be incurred. These costs are n paid until the formation is successfully completed and is paid using District assessment funds. Craig Hill, as Financial Advisor, will assist the City in the sale of bonds to fund the District improvements. His costs are also not paid until the formation is successfully completed and is paid using District assessment funds. Fiscal Impact: The advance of $30,000 from the Contingency Fund to 310-8105-4201 (Bonnie Brae UUD) will be reimbursed if the UUD is successfully formed. Respectfully submitted, Richard �. organ, P.E.

( d'f x,60 CONTINUED FROM JUNE 28, 2005 CITY COUNCIL MEETING 7 / [�2..S June 21, 2005 Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council SUBJECT: GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT 05-4 ZONE CHANGE 05-4; 19 2ND STREET APPELLANTS: GARY AND CINDI WELLS 24449 HAWTHORNE BOULEVARD TORRANCE, CA 90505 REQUEST: Regular Meeting of June 28, 2005 TO APPEAL THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S DECISION TO DENY A GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT FROM NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL TO HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL AND ZONE CHANGE FROM C-1 (NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL) TO R-3 (MULTI -FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) Planning Commission Recommendation: 1. Deny the requested General Plan Amendment, and Zone Change by adopting the attached Resolution to sustain the Planning Commission's decision. Background: PROJECT INFORMATION GENERAL PLAN: ZONING: LOT SIZE: EXISTING USE:. UNITS ALLOWED IF R-3 ZONE: ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: Neighborhood Commercial (HD Residential Proposed) C-1 (R-3 proposed) 3,838 Square Feet Duplex 2 Units Negative Declaration (Initial Study on file). At their meeting of May 17, 2005, The Planning Commission voted 4:0 to deny the requested General Plan Amendment and Zone Change. The City Council previously considered this request in February, 2003 and unanimously voted to sustain the prior decision of the Planning Commission to deny the requested General Plan Amendment and Zone Change, finding that the existing General Plan and Zone should not be changed as they represent the appropriate depth for commercial or mixed use development for this location. There have been no material changes in the use or development of surrounding properties since this request was denied. The Planning Commission approved the condominium project only contingent upon Council approval of the General Plan Amendment and. Zone Change. The subject lot is located on the north side of Second Street and is the second lot east of the neighborhood commercial development that fronts on Hermosa Avenue (currently a restaurant). 5a • • The lot is located at a depth of 60 to 93 feet from Hermosa Avenue and abuts Beach Drive on the west. The intervening property between the subject site and the restaurant (25 2"d Street) is also developed with a duplex. The property is one of three lots located between Hermosa Avenue and Beach Drive designated Neighborhood Commercial on the General Plan Map, and C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial) on the official City Zoning Map. The C-1 zoning for the site does not allow exclusive residential use, and only permits residential use as part of mixed-use project with commercial use on the ground floor. The subject lot is currently developed with a duplex, constructed in the 1920's. The commercial designation for this block between Hermosa Avenue and Beach Drive dates back to the oldest City land use and zoning maps. The Hermosa Avenue fronting property to the south contains a mix of service and retail commercial uses on both sides of the street, while directly across the Hermosa Avenue the property is developed residentially and zoned R-3. The Hermosa Avenue fronting property located to the south across 2"d street is also zoned C-1 and formerly was a restaurant use, but is currently vacant. On June 20, 2005, the property owner submitted a project to build a mixed- use project (one unit above ground floor commercial) on this site. The properties to the west and north are residential. (See the attached aerial photo and existing land use map). The Staff Environmental Review Committee, at their meeting of January 6, 2005, recommended an environmental negative declaration for the proposed General Plan Amendment/Zone Change, since it does not change the existing use of the site. Analysis - General Plan Amendment / Zone Change The applicant's request to redesignate and rezone the property to HD Residential and R-3 will allow exclusive residential use of the lot and allow a 2 -unit condominium project concurrent with this General Plan Amendment/Zone Change. A two -unit development results in a density that is consistent with surrounding residential densities and compatible with the development pattern of the area to the south and west, and on the East Side of Hermosa Avenue. Approval of this change will preclude any possible future expansion of the Hermosa Avenue fronting commercial property through to the alley for either commercial use or a mixed use project. Assembling this property with the frontage property and the intervening property at 25 2nd Street would encourage higher quality commercial projects or add commercial parking to improve existing commercial activity. The assembly of this property for a commercial project is improbable given that both this lot and 25 2' Street (also currently a duplex) will have to be combined with the Hermosa Avenue fronting commercial lot, and the current residential use is probably a more valuable use of the property than a commercial use. However, the properties could also be assembled for a mixed-use project, with ground floor commercial and residential above, which probably is a viable alternative as evidenced by the project at 30-44 Hermosa Avenue. Recent direction from the City Council on the issue of commercial depths along P .C.H. has been generally to maintain commercial depths and not allow encroachment of residential uses, with only a couple of exceptions. The issue of commercial depth in neighborhood commercial areas along Hermosa Avenue has only bee been discussed in connection with this same request two years ago. 4 The General Plan designation of Neighborhood Commercial is described as follows: This category includes convenience stores, Laundromats and similar uses designed to primarily serve local walk- in traffic. (page 26 Land Use Element). The purpose of the C -I, Neighborhood Commercial Zone as described in the Zoning Ordinance (Section 17.26.020(B) is to provide sites for mix of small local businesses appropriate for, and serving the daily needs of nearby residential neighborhood. while establishing land use regulations that prevent significant adverse effects on abutting residential uses. The applicant argues that the opportunities for commercial use of this property are very limited because of the size of the lot and the fact that it is isolated from other commercial uses or lots and is not connected by ownership to the Hermosa Avenue fronting lot. The applicant also argues that its lack of viability as a commercial propertyis shown by the fact that its current use has not changed, and by their unsuccessful efforts to sell this property in the past two years as a C-1 property. The applicant has prepared a comparative fiscal revenue analysis, which estimates property tax, sales tax, UUT, and business license revenue that can be expected from the existing use, a 2 -unit residential condominium, and a mixed-use commercial/residential project that is currently allowed under the zoning. The hypothetical mixed commercial/residential project encompasses all three parcels on the block since the applicant argues that development of this single lot, as a mixed use is infeasible. The residential condominium use is expected to generate the most revenue at $8,500 annually, the subject parcel's portion of a mixed-use project will generate $5,960, and the existing use generates $1,900. However, the study is deficient relative to commercial and mixed use developments in three ways. First, the estimates are based upon a two unit condominium rather than three units which are permitted and can be developed on the combined lots as described in the study. The size of such condominium development would equal or exceed the size of condominium developments throughout the city. Second, the retail area is overstated in the study development program and the assumed project of 2 units and more commercial development generates less revenue from a property tax standpoint than what can practically be built on the property. Although the sales tax generated is greater in this case, it contributes less than the property tax revenue and overstating it in the proforma undervalues the mixed use project. Finally, the study misrepresents what can be built in the city. It says a single lot mixed use project cannot be built practically, but a similar project on a smaller lot across the street is proposed and will be heard by Planning Commission in July. It also misrepresents that a combined lot mixed use project will not be built but one is currently under construction Y2 block from the property. So the facts don't support the applicant's study that mixed use on one lot or three combined lots cannot be built and the revenue estimates are just inaccurate and should not be used to evaluate the proposed zone change.' Conclusion: The City Council has previously resisted re -designating commercially zoned property in the City and specifically rejected this same request two years ago. Also, the property can currently be developed with neighborhood -oriented commercial with residential units above either on its own, or if developed in combination with the adjacent lots on the block. Further, there have been no • • changes in the development and use of surroundings, or any change in City Council policy regarding these types of requests since the last time it was considered.

Maps (Location, General Plan, Zoning) 3. Aerial Photo Separate attachment: Correspondence from applicant, including fiscal analysis Notes: 1. The estimates for the mixed-use development project are based on a project that would require assembly of the subject lot and the adjacent two lots on this block on the south side of ri Street. The report argues that a mixed use project is considered unlikely because of the difficulty of assembling the parcels and the hypothetical project includes two rental units and 3,750 sq. ft. of retail development. The required parking for the retail use is 15 spaces plus 5 spaces for condominium/apartments. The comparative analysis does not evaluate other potential mixed-use development scenarios of assembled parcels, which could include residential condominiums (as many as 7 units would be allowed with required parking) and a smaller proportion of commercial square footage. Also the fiscal analysis does not project fiscal revenue over time, which would show that annual sales tax revenue from commercial uses may increase, while property tax revenue remains rather static because of the limitations of Proposition 13.

LOCATED AT 19 SECOND STREET AND LEGALLY. DESCRIBED AS LOT 12, BLOCK 3, HERMOSA BEACH TRACT The City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve and order as follows: Section 1. An application was filed by Gary Wells owner of property at 19 Second Street seeking to amend the General Plan Map and the Zoning Map for the subject property. Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the application for a General Plan Amendment and Zone Change on May 17, 2005, at which testimony and evidence, both written and oral, was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission. Based on this evidence and testimony the Planning Commission denied the request. Section 3. The applicant filed, an appeal of the Planning Commission decision. Section 4. The City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the applicant's appeal of the Planning Commission denial of the General Plan Amendment and Zone Change on July 12, 2005, at which testimony and evidence, both written and oral, was presented to and considered by the City Council. Section 5. Based on evidence received at the public hearing, and the record of decision of the Planning Commission, the City Council makes the following factual findings: 1. The property is designated Neighborhood Commercial on the General Plan Map, and Neighborhood Commercial on the official City Zoning Map. The C-1 zoning for the site allows local neighborhood oriented commercial uses or residential use with ground floor commercial as part of a mixed-use project. 2. The requested change will reduce the depth of the commercial designated property, as measured from Hermosa Avenue westward, from 93 to 60 feet, and replace the commercial designations on the subject property to allow residential development for up to two units consistent with the High Density Residential classification of the General Plan and the R-3 Zoning district in the Zoning Ordinance. 3. The property at 19 2nd Street has been in continuing use for residential since the 1920's and perhaps earlier. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 • • 4. Surrounding property to the north and west is designated High Density Residential on the General Plan and zoned R-3, which allows residential development up to a density of 33 units per acre, and is currently developed with a mix of multi -family uses. Section 6. Based on the foregoing factual findings, the City Council makes the following findings pertaining to the General Plan Amendment and Zone Change: 1. The proposed amendment to the General Plan Map to reduce the depth of the Neighborhood Commercial designation by excluding 19 2nd Street, from 93 feet to 60 feet, is not in the best interest of the City with respect to long-term land use and development at the Hermosa Avenue and 2°a Street intersection. 2. The General Plan Map accurately depicts the appropriate depth for neighborhood commercial development and long-term land use and development of this area. 3. Reducing the potential depth for commercial development would preclude the opportunity for new commercial activity or the expansion of existing commercial development along the subject segment of Hermosa Avenue. Section 7. Based on the foregoing findings, the City Council hereby denies the request to amend the Land Use Map of the General Plan. Section 8. By virtue of the denial of the proposed General Plan Amendment, it would be contrary to State Law to approve the Zone. Change because such a change would render the zoning designation inconsistent with the general plan designation. Therefore, the Zone Change is hereby denied.

DEV. OEP:[ The undersigned represents Gary and Cindi Wells, the owners of the above referenced property and the applicants with respect to the General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Precise Development Plan, Condominium CUP and Vesting Tentative Parcel Map applications to be heard before the Planning Commission on the evening of May 17th. The purpose of this letter is to detail our reasons for seeking the support of the Planning 'Commission in approving (1) the change of the General Plan designation of my client's property from Neighborhood Commercial to High Density Residential and the corresponding zoning designation from C-1 to R-3; and (2) the Precise Plan, CUP and subdivision map applications filed to effect the development of a 2 -unit condominium project. Please find outlined below our positions in support of the filed applications: 1. The Planning Commission in November of 2002 denied my client's request for a General Plan Amendment and Zone Change finding that the existing General Plan and Zoning designations were the appropriate dcpth for commercial or mixed-use developments for the subject location. In the instant filing, the applicants ask that this Planning Commission reconsider said finding for the reasons discussed below. The General Plan designation of Neighborhood Commercial is described at page 26 of the Land Use Element as follows: "This category includes convenience stores, Laundromats and similar uses designed to primarily serve local walk-in traffic (bolded emphasis added)." The purpose of the C-1, Neighborhood Commercial Zone, as described in Section 17.26.020(B) of the Zoning Ordinance is "to provide sites for a mix of small local businesses appropriate for, and serving the daily needs of nearby residential neighborhoods (bolded emphasis added)..." 1219 MORNINGSIDE DRIVE SUITE 212 MANHATTAN BEACH, CA 90266 PHONE (310) 802.1230 FAX (310) 802.0060 E-MAIL SIKREATTY@A'OL.COM Hermosa Beach Planning Commission May 11, 2005 Page 2 The reclassification of my client's property to the requested designations will not prejudice the goals of the above stated city policies. The 60 -foot cumulative depth from Hermosa Avenue of the two properties to the east of my client's lot is sufficient in order to provide for the types of uses encouraged by the above quoted city guidelines. The walk-up trade contemplated by the neighborhood commercial designation does not demand extensive parking allocation. The realistic use of my client's property in any commercial or mixed-use development would be for parking...parking that is not required for a true walk-up neighborhood clientele. In addition, the classification of the subject property as commercial cannot be justified because 1) the property does not fronton Hermosa Avenue; 2) the opportunities for commercial use are limited, or non-existent, due to the small size of the lot and its isolation from other commercial uses and/or lots; and 3) the properties directly north, east and west of the subject lot are classified as residential. Although as noted in the Planning Department staff report, the approval of these applications will preclude future expansion of the Hermosa Avenue commercial frontage through to the Beach Drive alley, such expansive development is improbable given that both the subject lot and 25 2nd Street must be combined with the Hermosa Avenue fronting commercial lot. It is the opinion of the undersigned that the truest barometer of the best use for property is the marketplace. My clients have been unable to sell their property as a commercial site for over two years. No development proposals or offers have been received by the 3 separate owners of the lots bounded by Hermosa Avenue and Second Street seeking to consolidate said properties into one integrated commercial project. If a demand existed for an integrated commercial use of said properties, such proposals or offers would have already transformed the site. Accordingly, I believe the request to change the General Plan and Zoning designations of my client's property is both reasonable and justified. 2. Although the goal of promoting larger, integrated neighborhood commercial developments along secondary arterial streets is understandable, including the potential of creating and increasing annual fiscal revenues for the city, the policy has not achieved its desired end result in the instant case. Included in the materials submitted to the planning staff is a Comparative Fiscal Revenue Projection from the firm of Lee Kosmont Advisory Services. The conclusion of this report indicates that the city will receive more annual fiscal revenue from my client's proposed two - /3 Hermosa Beach Planning Commission May 11, 2005 Page 3 unit condominium project than it presently receives from the existing site uses or from a hypothetical mixed-use development of the site. For all of the reasons discussed above, request is hereby made to the Planning Commission to approve all of the entitlement applications filed concerning the property located at 19 2nd Street. Thank you for your consideration of this material and I look forward to appearing before you next Tuesday evening. Sincerely, Gary and Cindi Wells Srour & Associates 4 e J osmont ADVISORY SERVICES Memorandum R!C lVRO MAY 11?POi COM. DEV. DEP': To: Steve Kaplan, Esq. From: Ross S. Selvidge, Ph.D Date: April 21, 2005 Subject: Comparative Fiscal Revenue Projection for 19 2°d Street, Hermosa Beach At your request, Lee-Kosmont Advisory Services (`Lee-Kosmont") has estimated the potential site- specific fiscal revenues that are likely to be generated for the City of Hermosa Beach by the existing improvements and by two alternative development scenarios for the property known as 19 2" d Street, Hermosa Beach ("Property"). Property is currently 'developed with two residential rental units. The parcel is approximately 4,144 square feet in area. It is in a block with two other parcels, one of which has frontage on Hermosa Avenue. One of those two other lots is also developed with two residential units. The lot with frontage on Hermosa Avenue is developed with a single -story restaurant. The total combined area of the three lots that constitute the block is approximately 9,880 square feet. The existing Cl zoning of the Property and the other two parcels permits a range of commercial uses or a mix of commercial and residential uses. The existing zoning does not permit new development that is exclusively residential. The owners of the Property are applying for a rezoning of the parcel to permit the demolition of the existing improvements and the development of two residential condominium units. The purpose of this analysis is to compare the potential annual fiscal revenues that would be generated for the City of Hermosa Beach by two specified alternative development scenarios. In addition, and as a point of reference, the current fiscal revenues being generated by the Property for the City are also estimated. SUMMARY FINDINGS Exhibit 1 presents the estimated annual fiscal revenues in four principal categories that are expected tobe generated by the Property in its present use as well as if redeveloped with the two proposed condominium units or as part of a hypothetical mixed-use development encompassing all three of the parcels on the block. The four principal sources of fiscal revenues, from the Property are utility user tax, property tax, sales tax and business license tax. The City is expected to receive the largest total fiscal revenues if the property is redeveloped with two condominium units. Redevelopment of the Property in a mixed-use in conjunction with the other two parcels on the block is expected to generate the second highest total fiscal revenues for 601 South Figueroa Street, Suite 3550 Los Angeles, CA 90017 Phone 213.623.8484 Fax 213.623.8288 www.kosmont.com A Member of the Lee & Associates Group of.Companies /5 • l/fsmoni VISORY SERVICES •Comparative Fiscal Revenue Projection 19 2nd Street, Hermosa Beach April21, 2005 Rage 2of5 the City. The existing use of the Property is expected to produce the least total fiscal revenues for the City. Those estimated total annual fiscal revenues for the existing use and two alternative scenarios are as follows: Existing Use $1,900 Condominium $8,500 Mixed -Use $5,960 Consequently, the redevelopment of the Property as two residential condominiums is expected to produce substantially higher annual fiscal revenue for the City than either the existing use or if redeveloped as a part of a hypothetical three -parcel mixed-use project. It should be pointed out that prospect of the Property being redeveloped in a mixed-use in conjunction with the two other parcels on the block is highly speculative at best because it is impossible to estimate at what time in the future, if any, the three parcels might be combined under one ownership. Because of its configuration and size, it is infeasible for the subject parcel to be developed in a mixed-use or exclusively retail/commercial use on its own. CURRENT USE AND PROPOSED CONDOMINIUM DEVELOPMENT The Property consists of a 1,137 square foot two -unit, wood -frame, single -story residential building. There is also a detached garage and two surface parking spaces. The lot is approximately 4,144 square feet in area. Property tax records state that the improvements were constructed in 1913. The units are currently occupied by tenants who lease the premises. The current assessed value is approximately $789,000. The owners propose to demolish the existing improvements and construct two residential condominium units on the Property. The development would incorporate on-site all the parking that is required by the Hermosa Beach zoning code. The owners' market analysis indicates that the units can be expected to sell for approximately $2,000,000 each upon completion. HYPOTHETICAL MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT As an alternative to leaving the Property as -is, or developing it with two condominium units, it would be permissible under the current zoning to develop the property with new exclusively commercial use (e.g., retail or restaurant) or mixed commercial and residential use. However, because of the small size and configuration of the Property, it would be infeasible from a practical standpoint to develop the Property on a "stand alone" basis in either an exclusively commercial or mixed-use. The parcel by itself contains too little land area to accommodate both reasonable sized improvements and the amount of associated parking that would be required. Therefore, for new commercial or mixed-use development to be accommodated, it would be necessary to combine the Property with the two other parcels that make up the block in order to be (6 '/fsmont VISORY SERVICES Comparative Fiscal Revenue Projection 19 2nd Street, Hermosa Beach April 21, 2005 Page 3 of 5 able to construct improvements that would large enough to be rational from an economic standpoint. Together, the three parcels that comprise the block are approximately 9,880 square feet in area. An analysis was conducted to determine how many square feet of 1) exclusively commercial, or 2) mixed-use development could be accommodated if the hypothetical three -parcel site were combined under single ownership, cleared for new development, and relevant provisions of the Hermosa Beach zoning code applied. In order to accommodate improvements and the required parking, it would be possible to develop a maximum of approximately 4,480 square feet of exclusively retail development or 2,400 square feet of exclusively restaurant development on the combined parcels. In a mixed-use mode, it would be possible to develop approximately 3,750 square feet of retail in conjunction with two apartment units or 2,080 square feet of restaurant in conjunction with two apartments. Additional apartments may theoretically be possible in a mixed-use mode but the size of the non-residential component would become marginal from an investment standpoint. Consequently, it would probably be optimal, from an, investment standpoint for the; three combined parcels to be developed with 3,750 square feet of retail in conjunction with two apartment units. This would include five parking spaces for the apartments and, 15 parking spaces for the retail space. As indicated, it would be necessary for the three parcels that make up this site to be combined under one owner to undertake this hypothetical mixed-use development. It would be extremely difficult to estimate when, if ever, that might occur. The ability of someone to acquire all three parcels will depend on a number of factors such as the values of the individual parcels as is or upgraded compared to the value each would contribute as land to a joint development of all three parcels in combination. Market conditions and the personal investment circumstances of the three owners will be the major determinants of how those values would compare. It would be futile to try to guess by when those factors would move to the point that it would become economically rational for individual parcels owners to sell for a joint development. ANNUAL FISCAL REVENUES The direct site-specific annual fiscal revenues to the City will come from four principal sources. The factors utilized in producing the estimates of those revenues came from a number of sources including the current owners and Lee-Kosmont's own reference materials. For purposes of allocating the fiscal revenues from the hypothetical mixed-use development among the three parcels, the revenues are distributed in accordance with percent of the total site that each individual parcel represents. As shown in Exhibit 2, the Property represents approximately 42% of the total site. UTILITY USER TAX The City levies a 6.00% tax on utility consumption at the "retail"•level, which is paid by the utility user. The tax is levied on all utilities, including electricity, natural gas, water, telephone, cable television, and cellular phone. kJosmont ADVISORY SERVICES Comparative Fiscal Revenue Projection 19 2nd Stree4 Hermosa Beach Apri121, 2005 Page 4 of 5 Estimates for the utility expenditures subject to utility tax were based on utility expenditure patterns in comparable properties. The derivation of the total utility taxes received by the City are presented in Exhibit 2 for the existing use and condominiums and in Exhibit 3 for the hypothetical mixed-use development. The City is estimated to annually receive approximately $340 from the existing use and $460 from the proposed condominium development. The Property's 42% allocation from the hypothetical mixed-use development would be approximately $570. PROPERTY TAX The total base property tax is 1.0% of market value, in accordance with Article XIII of the State Constitution. Allocations of the base property tax between taxing entities varies by tax rate area (TRA). For the TRA in which the Property is located, the City will receive approximately 20.0% of the base tax. A property is assessed at a market value that is determined when sale, change of ownership, or new construction occurs on the parcel. On an annual basis, a property's assessed value cannot increase by more than 2.0%. Development of the Property as condominiums or the hypothetical mixed-use will result in an increase in the property value site and a corresponding increase in the property tax revenue generated for the City general funds. The current assessed value for the Property is approximately $789,000. This generates $1,580 in annual property tax revenue for the City. This calculation is shown in Exhibit 3. The assessed value for the condominium development is based on the owners' the anticipated sale price of $2,000,000 per unit. The total estimated combined value would be $4,000,000. This will generate approximately $8,000 in annual property tax revenue for the City as shown in Exhibit 3. Based on discussions with individuals familiar with the retail real estate market in Hermosa Beach, retail space could be valued in the range of $290 per square foot or a total of $1,087,000. Based on potential rents, the apartments may be valued in the range of $648,000. This would produce a combined value for the mixed-use development of approximately $1,735,000. As shown in Exhibit 4, this value will generate a total of approximately $3,480 in annual property tax revenue for the City from all three parcels. SALES TAX The State collects an 8.25% sales tax on all qualifying sales in Los Angeles County. One percent (1.0%) of taxable sales is subsequently subvened by the State to the local jurisdiction (in this case the City of Hermosa Beach) in which the sale took place (i.e., to the point-of-sale). Taxable sales would only be produced by the hypothetical mixed-use development. Taxable sales are estimated to be in the range of $225 per square foot based on the location and the type of retail users that are likely to occupy the space. This will generate approximately $844,000 in annual taxable sales. As presented in Exhibit 4, the City's sales tax revenue from this scenario is estimated to be l$ J osmont ADVISORY SERVICES • Comparative Fiscal Revenue Projection 19 2nd Street, Hermosa Beach April21, 2005 Page 5 of 5 $8,440 annually from the entire mixed-use development. The 42% allocation to the Property would be approximately $3,540 per year. BUSINESS LICENSE TAX The City levies business license taxes on retail gross receipts. A flat tax of $100 is levied on the first $20,000 of gross receipts. Any excess above $20,000 is taxed at a rate of 0.10%. There is nobusiness license tax on commercial rental receipts. Consequently, only the hypothetical mixed-use development would generate any business license tax for the City. To calculate the City's annual business license tax revenue from the hypothetical mixed-use development, the business license tax rate was applied to the estimated annual gross receipts from retail sales. Annual retail sales were estimated to be in the range of $225 per square foot based on the type of retail user that the site should be able to attract. Total retail sales were estimated to bc. approximately $844,000. This amount would generate approximately. $920 in total business license tax revenue for the City from all three parcels. The 42% allocation to the Property is $390 per year. This calculation is shown in Exhibit 4.

DEV. DEP T The undersigned represents Gary and Cindi Wells, the owners of the above referenced property and the appellants with respect to the General Plan Amendment, and Zone Change applications denied by the Planning Commission on the evening of May 17th. The purpose of this letter is to detail our reasons for seeking the support of the City Council in (1) approving the change of the General Plan designation of my client's property from Neighborhood Commercial to High Density Residential and the corresponding zoning designation from C-1 to R-3; and (2) confirming the Planning Commission's support of the Precise Plan, CUP and subdivision map applications filed to effect the development of a 2 -unit condominium project. Please find outlined below our positions in support of the filed applications: 1. The Planning Commission denied my client's request for a General Plan Amendment and Zone Change finding that the existing General Plan and Zoning designations were the appropriate depth for commercial or mixed-use developments for the subject location. In the instant filing, the applicants ask that. this City Council reconsider said finding for the reasons discussed below. The General Plan designation of Neighborhood Commercial is described at page 26 of the Land Use Element as follows: "This category includes convenience stores, Laundromats and similar uses designed to primarily serve local walk-in traffic (bolded emphasis added)." The purpose of the C-1, Neighborhood Commercial Zone, as described in Section 17.26.020(B) of the Zoning Ordinance is "to provide sites for a mix of small local businesses appropriate for, and serving the daily needs of nearby residential neighborhoods (bolded emphasis added)..."

The 60 -foot cumulative depth from Hermosa Avenue of the two properties to the east of my client's lot is sufficient in order to provide for the types of uses encouraged by the above quoted city guidelines. The walk-up trade contemplated by the neighborhood commercial designation does not demand extensive parking allocation. The realistic use of my client's property in any commercial or mixed-use development would be for parking... parking that is not required for a true walk-up neighborhood clientele. In addition, the classification of the subject property as commercial cannot be justified because 1) the property does not front on Hermosa Avenue; 2) the opportunities for commercial use are limited, or non-existent, due to the small size of the lot and its isolation from other commercial uses and/or lots; and 3) the properties directly north, east and west of the subject lot are classified as residential. Although as noted in the Planning Department staff report, the approval of these applications will preclude future expansion of the Hermosa Avenue commercial frontage through to the Beach Drive alley, such expansive development is improbable given that both the subject lot and 25 2nd Street must be combined with the Hermosa Avenue fronting commercial lot. It is the opinion of the undersigned that the truest barometer of the best use for property is the marketplace. My clients have been unable to sell their property as a commercial site for over two years. No development proposals or offers have been received by the 3 separate owners of -the lots bounded by Hermosa Avenue and Second Street seeking to consolidate said properties into one integrated commercial project. If a demand_ existed for an integrated commercial use of said properties, such proposals or offers would have already transformed the site. Accordingly, I believe the request to change the General Plan and Zoning designations of my client's property is both reasonable and justified. 2. Although the goal of promoting larger, integrated neighborhood commercial developments along secondary. arterial streets is understandable, including the potential of creating and increasing annual fiscal revenues for the city, the policy has not achieved its desired end result in the instant case. Included in the materials submitted to the planning staff is a Comparative Fiscal Revenue Projection from the firm of Lee Kosmont Advisory Services. The conclusion of this report indicates that the city will receive more annual fiscal revenue from my client's proposed two- Hermosa Beach City Council June 23, 2005 Page 3 unit condominium project than it presently receives from the existing site uses or from a hypothetical mixed-use development of the site. For all of the reasons discussed above, request is hereby made to the City Council to approve all of the entitlement applications filed concerning the property located at 19 2nd Street. Thank you for your consideration of this material and I look forward to appearing before you next Tuesday evening. Sincerely, St aplan cc: Gary and Cindi Wells Srour & Associates 2� Honorabl4Mayor and Members of The Hermosa Beach City Council July 6, 2005 Regular Meeting of July 12, 2005 CITYWIDE SPEED SURVEY AND POSTED SPEED LIMITS Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Approve the Citywide Speed Survey prepared by ME, Inc.; and 2. Waive Full Reading and Introduce the Ordinance establishing citywide posted speed limits. Summary: Based on the Engineering and Traffic Surveys conducted in the manner prescribed in the State of. California Vehicle Code, it is the recommendation of the staff that the Ordinance (ATTACHMENT 1)be adopted setting the speed limits for all Arterial and Collector roadways. Background: The State of California Vehicle Code (CVC) requires that an Engineering and Traffic Survey be conducted every five years, with the survey's results being used to establish or adjust the posted speed limits on streets where radar would be used as an enforcement tool. The surveys, conducted in conjunction with these report recommendations, were conducted in conformance with the CVC requirements. Other policies, procedures and requirements associated with establishing or adjusting a speed limit include: • It is a long-standing premise of engineering, enforcement and judicial officials that 85% of all motorists will travel a street segment at a speed that they feel is safe and prudent for the prevailing conditions, and that the posting of a speed limit significantly lower than the 85th percentile speed will have very little effect on the continuing actual speed of traffic on the street. Taking this into account, recommended speed limits are normally set at or near the 85th percentile speed as determined utilizing the Engineering and Traffic Survey. The CVC and Municipal Courts recognize that there may be extenuating circumstances or changes in the roadway or traffic characteristics that are not readily apparent to the motorists and may justify a reduction of the speed limitbelow the 85th percentile level. These conditions and circumstances include a high incidence of speed -related accidents, street alignment, narrowing of the. roadway, obscured access from cross streets or driveways onto the major roadway, or new or unanticipated pedestrian or bicycle activity. A reduced speed limit based on these conditions is documented in the data submitted to the courts. Analysis:' The traffic engineering staff conducted traffic counts and segment speed surveys of Arterial and Collector roadways citywide. Staff performed the required fieldwork to collect the vehicular traffic volumes and performed the speed zone surveys. The results of the Engineering and Traffic Surveys 6a unchanged, and Table 2.(ATTACHMENT 2) showing the streets where the speed limits are recommended to be changed. Based upon the 85th percentile traffic data collected, it is determined that Prospect Avenue, Valley Drive and Ardmore Avenue need to have posted speed limits of 30 mph, an increase from the existing 25 mph speed limit. However, it is our engineering judgment that extenuating circumstances exist on Prospect Avenue and Ardmore Avenue between 2nd and 8th Streets and should remain posted at 25 mph. The methodology allows for the justified speed limits based on the 85th percentile surveyed to be reduced by an additional 5 mph when the following factors are met: o Multiple unprotected crossings o Residential/School zone o Horizontal Curves o Vertical Curves o Restricted Sight Distance o Pedestrian Walking Corridor o Multiple Stop -Controlled Crossing Streets o Multiple Residential Driveways All of these apply to Prospect Avenue and Ardmore Avenue, between 2nd and 8th Streets, is very narrow with horizontal curves and poor sight distance at side streets, therefore an additional 5 mph reduction is recommended leaving the speed limits currently posted unchanged. Not enough of these factors apply to Valley Drive or Ardmore Avenue from 8th to Pier Avenue to make a similar finding. The segment of Valley Drive, between 21st" and Pier Avenue, which is earmarked for an increase in posted speed limit, has a school that may be affected by the changing of the speed limit from 25 mph to 30 mph. It is state law that all motorists, upon observing school children, must drive at the speed of 25 mph or less; however, we are recommending that additional traffic control signs reinforcing the message be installed within the segment. The sign is a state standard sign with the text "SCHOOL, SPEED LIMIT 25 MPH WHEN CHILDREN ARE PRESENT". The survey also recommends reducing the speed limit on Ardmore from Gould Avenue to 21st Street from 35 mph to 30 mph. The Public Works Commission heard this item on September 15, 2004. They supported the proposed posted speed limits with the exception of the portion recommending an increase in speed for the segment of Valley Drive between Pier Ave. and 8th Street. The Commission recommended that this segment not have an increased speed limit due to foot traffic and congestion (see Commission minutes - ATTACHMENT 4). The City's Traffic Engineering consultant could not agree with their finding. Option: Council may choose to not change the speed limits as recommended by the speed survey. The impact of not using the survey results for setting speed limits is reduced enforcement capability when citations are challenged in court. The use of radar enforcement requires that a speed survey be completed within the last five years and signage be in compliance with the survey. Fiscal Impact: The estimated cost for installing the proposed changes to the speed limits would be in the range of $250-$300 per sign. There are sufficient funds in the Street Maintenance budget to purchase the necessary signs. . Attachments: 1. Citywide Speed Zone Survey - Table 1 2. Citywide Speed Zone Survey - Table 2 3.

Citywide Speed Zone Survey Mr. Morgan informed everyone that the City is required to perform this survey every 5 years and maintain speed limit signs in conformance with the survey. Speed surveys have been completed and analyzed to determine the 85th percentile speeds. Accident history and other traffic factors are considered for revisions, if warranted. The Speed Zone. Survey will be forwarded to City Council and will require two (2) meetings for formal adoption. Mr. Abassi presented the results of the survey. . Highlights of Mr. Abassi's presentation included: • People are traveling at higher rates of speeds. • Speed at or below speed limit • Areas that have recommended revisions: o Ardmore Avenue: Gould Ave to 21st Street, decrease speed limit from 35 mph to 30 mph, Pier Avenue to 8th St. and 8th Street to 2nd Street increase speed limit from 25 mph to 30 mph; o Valley Drive, Gould Avenue to 21St Street, 21st Street to Pier Avenue, Pier Avenue to 8th Street, 8th Street to 2nd Street increase speed limits from 25 mph to30mph. • Mr. Morgan explained that Caltrans mandates that the survey be taken in order to enforce speeding tickets issued when using radar. • Streets not listed are governed by primafacie speed limit— travel at safe speeds of 25 mph or less; collector and arterial streets are included. Commissioner Lombardo cited instructions for public commentand opened the floor for comments. Alan Carter, 252 27th Court • Concerned that he did not see PCH down Gould included on survey. PCH West on Gould to Ardmore, traveling down the hill at 25 mph is very dangerous. Everyone travels faster. • Would like to see a survey done in this area. ■ !

PWC Minutes ATTACHMENT 4 09/15/04 • Does not want to see recommended decrease onSould Ave to 21st Street from 35 mph to 30 mph. • Stated his feelings that Commission is not considerate of the people's time. Mr. Abassi addressed Mr. Carter's concern about the 25 mph on Gould. This segment of Gould, from PCH to Ardmore was re-classified as a residential street by City Council so it is not included in the survey. Discussion among the Commission included: • Concerned about 25 mph on Valley. Did City Council reduce without survey? Mrs. Punneo explained that Commission been involved with the change to 25 mph between 11th and 2nd Streets to Pier when the speed was reduced from 30 mph. This took place in the Commission's first year of existence. • Mr. Abassi explained that if recommendation is changed, that segment is no longer enforceable by radar. • Survey must go to Council and would carry recommendations of Commission along with it, but survey will be presented in its entirety to Council. • Council can deviate from recommendations or survey results. • Concern over Pier to 8th on Valley increased speed limit. Robert Cummings, 232 26th Street • Stated that due to pedestrian traffic on Valley Drive near the Farmers Market, it is not responsible to raise speed limit. Mr. Abassi noted that the report would go to Council in its entirety and could include a memo from the Commission stating their concerns and/or recommendations.

Take no action on the initiative, set for the November ballot; 2. Place a competing measure on the ballot; or, 3. Decide to oppose the initiative. Background: At itsmeeting of June 28,.2005, the City Council reviewed the staff report regarding the alternative ordinance to the Ordinance Prohibiting Construction of New Public Improvements on the Beach and on the Greenbelt. Following a discussion of the alternative ordinance and comments from the proponents of the initiative ordinance regarding the intent of the authors, a sub -committee of Mayor Reviczky, and Councilmember Keegan was formed to meet with the proponents to determine whether or not the several concerns regarding existing improvements and activities could be addressed. The sub -committee, proponents, City Attorney and City Manager met and discussed the concerns. A representative of the proponents and the City Manager met later to work on language that the proponents may consider using to express their intent regarding the meaning and scope of the initiative measure in their ballot argument. This information will be forwarded to each of you when it is received and I expect this to be provided to me on Monday, July 11, 2005. Depending on the information that the proponents provide, the City Council may conclude that it is satisfied with the proponent's statement of intent to be included in a ballot argument, which would have some evidentiary value if the measure were to be subject to interpretation in a lawsuit. If this becomes the case then the City Council would not have to take any action. Staff has, as a result of the meeting with the sub -committee and proponents, revised the alternative ordinance. A copy of the revised ordinance and the first draft is attached. This, of course, can still be modified by the City Council prior to it being placed on the ballot should that be the direction that you decide to take. If it is to be placed on the ballot, staff will return at the July 26, 2005 meeting with a resolution placing it on the ballot. As a third option, the City Council may determine that initiative measure is overly restrictive and ambiguous, and determine to oppose it.

Sections 17.32.030 and 17.32.040 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code are amended to read as follows: 17.32.030 Permitted improvements. Improvements permitted in the 0-S-1 zone shall be limited to the following: A. Greenbelt.

June 21, 2005 Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of June 28, 2005 ALTERNATIVE ORDINANCE FOR THE CONSIDERATION BY THE VOTERS FOR CONTROLLING IMPROVEMENTS ON THE GREENBELT AND ON THE BEACH Recommendation: That the City Council review the ordinance to be placed on the ballot as an alternative to the initiative ordinance which will also be on the November 2005 ballot. Background: The City Council at the 11/23/04 meeting directed that the initiative measure entitled Ordinance Prohibiting Construction of New Public Improvements on the Beach and on the Greenbelt be placed on the November 2005 municipal ballot. Staff was directed at the May 24, 2005 meeting to return with an alternative ordinance for the City Council to also consider placing on the ballot. As you will recall, staff in its report of the initiative ordinance pointed out a number of concerns and that these changes have far greater implications than merely preventing construction of more parking areas on the Greenbelt and a bike•path on the beach. In order to provide for the reasonable use, safety, maintenance and eventual replacement on existing public improvements on the beach, staff has developed alternative language that will permit the ongoing use of these improvements without taking away the main intent of the drafters of the initiative's purpose of prohibiting any additional parking lots on the Greenbelt and the construction of a bike path on the beach without a vote of the people. Staff is suggesting the following language: . PERMITTED IMPROVEMENTS Improvements permitted in the 0-S-1 zone shall be limited to the following: A. Greenbelt. Landscaping; erosion control devices; irrigation facilities; anti - seawater intrusion facilities and wells; subsurface pipes, conduits and other utility infrastructure; and replacement or repair of parking facilities existing on November 1, 2005 within their existing footprint. B. Beach. Volleyball courts and playground equipment; lifeguard buildings and towers; public restrooms; temporary facilities erected for permitted special events; beach maintenance storage facilities; pier improvements; beach and shore protection improvements and devices; pollution protection devices that implement the City's pollution elimination permit; subsurface pipes, conduits and other utility infrastructure; and beach refuse collection facilities. 6d • •', The above language will allow the continued maintenance and reasonable upgrades and replacements of improvements located in the Greenbelt and on the beach while staying within the spirit of the initiative. A copy of the alternative ordinance is attached for your review. If approved, the City Clerk will return with a resolution to include this ordinance on the November 2005 ballot Respectfully submitted, Stephen Burrell City Manager • •, AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH CONTROLLING IMPROVEMENTS ON THE GREENBELT AND ON THE BEACH The People of the City of Hermosa Beach do ordain as follows: Section 1.

JENKINS & HOGIN , LLP A LAW PARTNERSHIP MEMORANDUM TO: MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL CC: STEVE BURRELL FROM: MICHAEL JENKINS DATE: NOVEMBER 23, 2004 RE: BEACH AND GREENBELT OPEN ZONE INITIATIVE This memorandum is submitted at your direction pursuant to Election Code Section 9212 in order to report on the implications of the above -referenced initiative measure. As reported to you by the City Clerk at your November 9, 2004 regular meeting, the initiative has qualified for placement on the ballot at the general municipal election in November, 2005. Upon receipt of this report, you have the option of adopting the initiative measure without alteration or placing it on the ballot in November 2005. The initiative measure states that its intent is to prevent the construction of new parking areas on the Greenbelt and a bike path on the beach, and to treat the two areas uniformly as open space. The initiative does two things: 1. It amends one provision in the chapter of the zoning ordinance governing the O -S-1 zone to limit the replacement or repair of existing improvements in that zone to "their footprint existing on the date of adoption of this ordinance;" and 2. It places the beach into the 0-S-1 zone, which currently only applies to the Greenbelt. As discussed in greater detail below, these changes have far greater implications than merely preventing construction of more parking areas on the Greenbelt and a bike path on the beach. JENKINS & HOGIN LLP Members of the City Council November 23, 2004 Page 2 Current law The 0-S-1 zone is established in Chapter 17.32 of the Municipal Code. Currently, the only property in the City designated 0-S-1 is the Greenbelt. While Section 17.32.020 purports to allow in the 0-S-1 zone all uses as are permitted in the O -S zone,l it goes on to say that "no structure, building or improvement shall be developed, constructed or erected unless specifically authorized as a permitted improvement herein." Section 17.32.030, entitled "Permitted Improvements," narrowly restricts improvements in the 0-S-1 zone to the following: 1. Only non -building improvements are allowed, solely for landscaping, beautification, erosion control, irrigation or anti -seawater intrusion, in order to maintain the open space. (§17.32:o3o.A) 2. Improvements to two existing parking areas located within the Greenbelt across from City Hall and from Clark Stadium as necessary to maintain the existing parking spaces, as long as they do not expand the parking areas. (§17.32.030.B) Change in the law proposed by the initiative The change proposed by the initiative measure to Section 17.32.030.B2 would delete entirely the existing references to the two parking areas on the Greenbelt, and replace those references with a general restriction on replacement and repairs to existing improvements in the 0-S-1 zone, limiting such replacement and repairs to the,existing footprint of those improvements. The change proposed by the initiative measure to 17.32.040 would designate and zone the beach, in addition to the Greenbelt, as 0-S-1 zoned property. This would mean that: • No new buildings or structures may be constructed on the beach. The only new improvements that could be constructed on the beach would be those related to landscaping, beautification, erosion control, irrigation and anti - seawater intrusion. • Existing improvements could be repaired and replaced, but only within the confines of their existing footprints. ' Permitted uses in the OS zone are parks, educational buildings and playgrounds, recreation centers, public utility structures, trails, public governmental buildings, historic monuments, public malls and plazas, the ocean, transit uses and landscaping. 2 No change is proposed to Section 17.32.o3o.A. JENKINS & HOGIN LLP ' I Members of the City Council November 23, 2004 Page 3 The zoning ordinance defines the word "structure," but does not include a definition of the word "improvements." As broadly as the word "structure" is defined in Section 17.04.040 ("anything constructed or erected which requires location on the ground or attached to something having a location on the ground"), the term "improvement" is arguably broader, as it refers in Chapter 17.32 to such objects as landscaping and beautification (neither of which is necessarily a "structure"). It appears that the word "improvements" was used in Chapter 17.32 as a reference to the specific facilities and objects that exist on the Greenbelt; hence, it is difficult and problematical to apply the term to the broader array of facilities and objects that exist, or might be placed, on the beach. Responses to City Council's specific questions At your November 9, 2004 regular meeting, several Councilmembers raised questions as to the effect of treating the Greenbelt and the beach uniformly under a single set of regulations as is proposed by the initiative. In my view, the initiative would not have a significant effect on the existing regulations as they apply to the Greenbelt. However, adoption of the initiative has broader implications for the beach, some of which are clear and some of which cannot be ascertained with certainty. For example: 1) Existing buildings (i.e. bathrooms) and structures (i.e. drainage devices) on the beach may be repaired or replaced, but could not be relocated outside their existing footprint. 2) No new bathrooms or other structures could be constructed on the beach. 3) No new fiber optic cable of the kind laid by Tyco under the beach would be allowed. 4) New utility facilities would not be allowed unless necessary for irrigation, erosion control or anti -seawater intrusion. It is not clear whether a storm water facility would be considered a form of "erosion control." 5) New volleyball posts would not be allowed; existing posts could be repaired or replaced in their existing locations only. 6) Because they are not fixed in the sand, it is unclear whether lifeguard stands are "improvements" within the meaning of the initiative. Since lifeguard stands are located on the ground, they are arguably "structures" within the meaning of the zoning ordinance. If the term "improvements" is broader than the term "structure," it is arguable that lifeguard stands could not be moved, and new stands could not be positioned on the beach. 7) It is not clear whether the restriction on "improvements" is limited to those that are permanent in nature, or whether the initiative is intended to cover improvements and facilities connected with a temporary event, such as bleachers or a bandstand. The language in Section 17.32.020 broadly prohibitions the "erection" of any improvement or structure except as. expressly permitted in Section 17.32.030.A. Arguably, the "erection" of temporary structures is prohibited. JENKINS & HOGIN LLP Members of the City Council November 23, 2004 Page 4 • Because the stated intent of the drafters of the initiative is limited to preventing more parking areas on the Greenbelt and a bike path on the beach, and to preserve these areas in a uniform manner as open space, there is no indication in the language of the initiative as to how to ascertain the answers to the questions noted above as being ambiguous or unclear. Consistency with General Plan The initiative is not inconsistent with the General Plan, which contemplates that the Greenbelt and the beach be maintained as open space. If adopted, the newly enacted provisions could not be amended except by another vote of the people. Consistency with State law As is the case with any municipal ordinance, it is possible that the ordinance could in some circumstances be preempted if in conflict with State law. ' For example, if State law (or the City's NPDES permit) required the construction of a facility on the beach to prevent pollution of ocean waters, it is possible that such a law would supersede the proposed initiative. That determination would have to be made on a case-by-case basis. TITLE AND SUMMARY PREPARED BY THE CITY ATTORNEY AN ORDINANCE PROHIBITING CONSTRUCTION OF NEW PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS ON THE BEACH AND ON THE GREENBELT The purpose of this initiative is to place on the ballot a proposed ordinance that would zone the City's beach "Restricted Open Space" (0-S-1), which is the same zoning designation as the Greenbelt. The proposed ordinance also would prohibit any new construction, development or improvements in areas zoned O -S-1, other than replacement or repair of existing improvements.

The proposed ordinance also would prohibit any new construction, development or improvements in areas zoned O -S-1, other than replacement or repair or existing improvements. • NOW, THEREFORE, THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS :tion 1. The purpose of this initiative is to place Hermosa Beach's two largest public recreation areas, the .tach" and the "Greenbelt Area," under uniform protection. The Greenbelt Area is currently in O -S-1 (Restricted en Space Zone) and subject to the protections applicable to that zone as set forth in Chapter 17.32 of the rmosa Beach Municipal Code.

Background: At its meeting of September 28, 2004, the City Council provided direction tostaff to report back on a cash key program that allows for resident discounts. The present cash key program is available to anyone. We have a total of 259 cash keys in use now. Of the total number, residents have purchased 153. The cash keys are sold at face value, meaning that there is no discount offered to the person purchasing the cash key. The cash key program is strictly an over-the-counter operation now, which means that staff does not have to check any program requirements before selling the cash key to the person wishing to buy the cash key. The cash key system is working well and is growing slowly in use, The cash key is sold in increments as requested by the purchaser. A discounted resident cash key program would result in some changes in how the cash keys are sold to residents. The suggested process would use the same residency requirements that we use for parking permits. A copy of requirements is attached. It would seem that it would be best to only sell the discounted residency keys at the Finance Office, as we have to be able to make sure that all of the requirements are met. It is suggested that off-site sales be considered later rather starting off with that program due to the need to verify the residency requirements. It is also important to point out that once sold, the cash keys can be used by anyone. No limit on the number or amount has been set so far however, so that may be something that the City Council would have to consider shouldit be abused in the future. The revenue that we have been receiving from the present residential users will drop by the amount of the discount. For example a 10% discount on a $50.00 cash key will result in $45.00 to the city. We are selling 153 cash keys to residents and this type of a discount would result in $765.00 less when they refill their cash keys (153x$50=$7650 vs. 153x$45=6885 or $765 less). If the program were successful, the difference would grow to some larger amount. Reducing revenue at this particular time does not seem like a good idea considering that we are in the process of increasing a number of fees for service. The program could be implemented in fairly short order if the City Council wished to proceed with changing the program to add a resident discount component to the cash key program.

This area is defined as follows: bound by the north and south city boundaries, by the Strand on the west, and by Loma or Morningside Drive on the east. This area was established to allow residents to park at any YELLOW POSTED METER without paying the meter or in ONE-HOUR ZONES in the residential areas without regard to one hour limit. The permits are not valid in the two-hour parking zones. Please check signs in your area for enforcement periods. RESTRICTIONS Please be aware that permits are not valid during street sweeping hours or at Commercial Meters (Silver or Green Post.) Permits are not valid on the silver side of a dual colored pole in the residential/commercial area. Also, VEHICLES MAY NOT PARK IN EXCESS OF SEVENTY TWO (72) HOURS in the same parking space. TYPES OF PERMITS There are two types of residential permits available, the permanent sticker and the transferable guest permit. The permanent sticker is permanently assigned and affixed to one vehicle. The transferable guest permit is not assigned to a specific vehicle and hangs from the inside rear view mirror. These permits are very valuable so we encourage everyone to lock their vehicles. Residents may purchase a sticker for each vehicle that is registered in their name and one transferable guest permit per residence per year, as long as one has not already been issued to the address. If you work within the impacted area, you may purchase one permit. PERMITS ARE VALID Permits are valid from March 1 to February 28 each year.

Stephen Burrell, City Manager FROM: Viki Copeland, Finance Director (K2)44)) RE: Cash Key Information • Below are'some stats on the cash keys purchased through 6/30/05: Number Percent of Purchased Total Hermosa Beach Residents Businesses Out of City Total 153 59% 42 64 259 16% 25% 100% A listing of the businesses purchasing cash keys is attached. In terms of making keys available when we are closed, pre -loaded cash keys could be "signed out" to businesses to sell on the weekend or evening. There is no way however, to add additional money to an existing key without the software. interface and security device that goes on the computer. If we wanted to purchase those for an additional City 24-hour location, the cost would be $500 for the interface and $100 for the security device. Obviously, selling preloaded keys or adding funds to the existing keys is just like handling money, with all the associated internal control issues. Then there is the issue of proof of residence if a discount were given to residents. The rules should be the same as for parking permits and taxi vouchers — current proof of residency would be required each time a purchase is made. It does not seem that we would want anyone but a City employee verifying residency.
