High daily count of 5233 low of 3500 vehicles using 16th street west of PCH per day. Count by Pub Works in Sept.. Does not count cars turning from PCH onto 16th street and then going into the Von's parking lot. Boils down to 5 cars per minute on a one block street in an 18 hour day. . Cars are turning in the Pavilion parking structure from the center westbound lane. Cars eastbound must block traffic when making a left turn into the parking structure. What does this mean? (use attachment 1 for reference) 1. Speed of traffic and volume of traffic is dangerous to anyone using the sidewalks or crosswalks of 16th street. 2. Traffic volume is dangerous for children and parents walking their kids to the Valley View School 3. Traffic volume is dangerous for the elderly trying to use the crosswalks 4. Creates a nuisance because of the large number of cars using horns 5. Counted 32 vehicles between the parking garage and the traffic light. 6. Someone is going to blow right thru the stop sign at 16th street and Ardmore because of excessive speed and may injure or kill someone. 7. Residents have cars shining lights into their residents up to 3 am in the morning by illegal parkers in the Von's unloading area. 8. Residents are resorting to upgrading their doors and window to keep the additional noise out. Traffic volume is creating bottlenecks by vehicles going into the Pavilion Parking Garage. This happens several time a day. Noise levels are elevated by cars and 18 wheelers using horns as they try to pass the garage bottleneck and continue down 16th street. Once through these cars roar down 16th street. Cars are waiting in the Von's truck unloading area at all hours in order to maximize their health club workout session parking. They wait with vehicle lights on and radios blaring for their exercise class (?) to start. A couple of minutes before the start of sessions they enter the Pavilion parking garage.. We have already contacted the City Manager and the Police Chief. The City Manager indicated that something would be done. But that written and verbal contact was several months ago and we have heard nothing since. Page 1 • • Therefore we request that (see attachment 2): 1. That cars eastbound on 16th Street not be allowed a left turn into the Pavilion parking garage. 2. That cars entering the parking garage only be allowed to turn from the north lane which is current marked for a right turn lane. 3. That the center lane which is westbound be marked for a straight through lane and left turn only. 4. That cars leaving the pavilion parking garage only be allowed a left turn going east on 16th street toward PCH. This will reduce the traffic passing the residences on 16th street. 5. Traffic entering Von's main parking lot will make a left turn if westbound or a right turn if eastbound. Westbound delivery trucks will still be able to make a left turn into the Von's unloading area.

Mr. Morgan noted that he's always been concerned about safety of diagonal parking which would be aided by slowing of traffic; said traffic counts taken the previous day were the highest count ever recorded demonstrating that the reduction of lanes did not divert drivers; said construction on Manhattan Avenue is causing higher counts on Hermosa Avenue.

Data show that the faster a patient can be identified as having an acute heart attack, the corresponding faster intervention can be delivered in an effort to reduce death of cardiac tissue and save lives. Increasingly, there is national interest in developing a systematic approach to the prehospital care of STEMI cardiac 9-1-1 patients supported by organizations such as the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association (AHA). In enacting their Advance Cardiac Life - Support Guidelines, the AHA advocates a 12 -Lead EKG machine as standard equipment on all paramedic units that handle acute coronary syndrome patients. The United States Senate, in a letter dated May 31, 2005, also recommended that anyone with symptoms of a possible heart attack obtain a 12 -Lead EKG as soon as possible and that EMS should transport patients with heart attack symptoms to specialized facilities. In Los Angeles County, the EMS Agency is working closely with the medical community to develop these recommendations into a cardiac care program that includes rapid acquisition and interpretation of a 12 -Lead EKG. The Honorable Board of Supervisors September 5, 2006 Page3 The Los Angeles County and City Fire Departments have been integral in the development stages of the cardiac care program, as recipients of an Annenberg Foundation grant which partially offsets the cost of 12 -Lead EKG equipment and training for theirrespective agency's paramedics. The paramedic service provider agencies identified in Attachment B are expected to purchase 12 - Lead EKG equipment by December 31, 2006, with the intent to provide associated training by June 30, 2007. A one-time allocation, not to exceed $4.0 million in Measure B TPA funding, would cover equipment and training costs for paramedics and EMT personnel in the 30 paramedic service provider agencies identified in Attachment B to ensure the implementation of the cardiac care program for STEMI patients. Per terms of the Agreement, the County will not reimburse for equipment and training previously funded by other grant funds. Studies have shown that morbidity and mortality due to a STEMI can be reduced significantly if patients activate the EMS system early, thereby shortening the time to treatment. Paramedics currently transport all cardiac patients to the nearest hospital. If the receiving hospital does not have the SRC capability some of the patients may require secondary transfer to a STEMI facility. However, under the new cardiac care.program they would transport the 9-1-1 STEMI cardiac patients to EMS Agency -approved receiving centers. As with all other patient destination policies, the paramedics will utilize the EKG equipment on patients based on established medical criteria, including County responsible indigent patients. Under the authority granted. by Title 22, California Code of Regulations, and as outlined in the EMS System Guidelines -issued by the State EMS Authority, the EMS Agency Medical Director will approve and designate qualified public and private hospitals in Los Angeles County as STEMI receiving centers. Approved SRCs will meet specific standards as outlined in Exhibit I, and include required equipment and personnel to provide rapid intervention. There are at least 36 hospitals in Los Angeles County that have the capability to participate as SRCs and have expressed high interest in the program. Participation in the SRC program is voluntary. The SRC Standards were developed by the Cardiac Technical Advisory Group, under the leadership of the EMS Agency Medical Director and was comprised of cardiologists, emergency physicians, fire department personnel, an EMS Commissioner, nurse managers from emergency departments and cardiac catherization laboratories, and a representative from the Hospital Association of Southern California. The SRC Standards have been fully approved by the County-ordinanced Emergency Medical Services Commission. On July 30, 2002, the Board adopted a resolution for the Measure B special tax ballot initiative. The resolution provides that Measure B TPA funds will be used to pay for the cost of prehospital care, including care provided in, or en route to, from or between acute care hospitals or other health care facilities. The resolution also established that the special tax is for the purpose of purchasing or leasing supplies, equipment or materials. In accordance with Measure B objectives, $4 million in Measure B TPA funds will be used to reimburse the paramedic service provider agencies identified in Attachment B for the initial purchase of 12 -Lead EKG machines and related training. County Counsel has approved Exhibits I and II as to use and form. Attachments A and B provide additional information.

AUTHORITY: Health & Safety Code, Division 2.5, Sections, 1798 DEFINITIONS: ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI): An acute MI that generates ST - segment elevation on the prehospital 12 -lead electrocardiogram (EKG). STEMI Receiving Center (SRC): A facility licensed for a cardiac catheterization laboratory and cardiovascular surgery by the Department of Health Services License and Certification Division and approved by the Los Angeles County EMS Agency as a SRC. PRINCIPLE: 1. The 12 -lead EKG in the prehospital care setting is a key component to the early diagnosis and ongoing definitive treatment for patients with acute myocardial infarction. 2. In all cases, the health and well being of the patient is the overriding consideration in determining patient destination. Factors to be considered include: severity and stability of the patient's condition; current status of the SRC; anticipation of transport time; and request by the patient, family, guardian or physician. POLICY: 1. Responsibility of the Provider Agency A. The 12 -lead EKG shall be acquired on patients who complain of chest pain/discomfort of suspected cardiac etiology and/or patients who the paramedics suspect are experiencing an acute cardiac event. Note: Standing Field Treatment Protocol (SFTP) providers will contact for notification and destination. B. Contact the assigned Base Hospital for medical direction and destination for all patients whose 12 -lead EKG demonstrates "acute MI" or the manufacturer's equivalentreading of an acute STEMI. C. Determine destination of the STEMI patient when for whatever reason base hospital contact cannot be made. EFFECTIVE: 05-15-06 . REVISED: ?

Label each prehospital 12 -lead EKG performed with the corresponding EMS Report Form Sequence Number. F. On the EMS Report Form, document that a 12 -lead EKG was done. ll. Responsibility of the Base Hospital A. Provide medical direction and destination for all patients whose 12 -lead EKG demonstrates STEMI. Note: Provide destination and obtain patient information in such a way as not to delay transport. B. Determine patient destination via the ReddiNet system. C. Notify the receiving SRC if the base hospital is not the patient's destination. Ill. Transportation of STEMI Patients to a SRC A. Ali STEMI patients shall be transported to the most accessible open SRC if ground transport is 30 minutes or less regardless of service agreement rules and/or considerations. Note: This includes hypotensive patients with signs and symptoms consistent with cardiogenic shock. B. If ground transport time to a SRC is greater than the maximum allowable time of 30 minutes, the patient shall be transported to the most accessible receiving facility. IV. Diversion of STEMI Patients to a SRC The SRC may request diversion of 9-1-1 ALS units only when: A. The hospital is unable to perform emergent percutaneous coronary intervention because the cardiac cath staff is already fully committed to caring for STEMI patients in the catheterization laboratory; or B. The facility is on internal disaster. Note: ED diversion does not prohibit a STEMI patient's transport to an open SRC. CROSS REFERENCE: Prehospital Care Policy Manual: Ref.

No. 808, Base Hospital Contact and Transport Criteria DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES (EMT-I,PARAMEDIC,MICN) SUBJECT: PATIENT DESTINATION REFERENCE NO. 502 PURPOSE: To ensure that 9-1-1 patients are transported to the most appropriate facility that is staffed, equipped, and prepared to administer emergency and/or definitive care appropriate to the needs of the patient. AUTHORITY: Health and Safety Code, Division 2.5, Section 1797.220 California Code of Regulations, Title 13, Section 1105 (c) PRINCIPLES: 1. 9-1-1 patients shall ordinarily be transported to general acute care hospitals with a basic emergency department permit. Transport to other medical facilities (hospitals with a stand-by permit, clinics and other medical facilities approved by the EMS Agency) shall be performed only in accordance with this policy. 2. In the absence of decisive factors to the contrary 9-1-1 patients shall be transported to the most accessible medical facility equipped, staffed, and prepared to receive emergency cases and administer emergency care appropriate to the needs of the patient. 3. Themost accessible receiving (MAR) facility may or may not be the closest facility geographically. Transport personnel shall take into consideration traffic, weather conditions or other similar factors, which may influence transport time when identifying which hospital is most accessible. 4. The most appropriate health facility for a patient may be that health facility which is affiliated with the patient's health plan. Depending upon the patient's chief complaintand medical history, it may be advantageous for the patient to be transported to a facility where they can be treated by a personal physician and/or the individual's personal health plan and where medical records are. available. 5. ALS units utilizing Standing Field Treatment Protocols (SFTPs) shall transport patients in accordance with this policy. 6. Patients shall not be transported to a medical facility that has requested diversion due to internal disaster. 7. Notwithstanding any other provision of this reference, and in accordance with Reference No. 503, Guidelines for Hospitals Requesting Diversion of ALS Units, final authority for patient destination rests with the base hospital handling the call. Whether diversion request will be honored depends on available system resources.

EMT -I personnel shall transport 9-1-1 patients deemed stable and requiring only basic life support (BLS) to the MAR, regardless of its diversion status (exception: internal disaster). For pediatric patients, the MAR is considered to be the most accessible Emergency Department Approved for Pediatrics (EDAP). For perinatal patients, the MAR is considered to be the most accessible perinatal center. B. EMT -I personnel may honor patient requests to be transported to other than the MAR provided that the patient is deemed stable and requires basic life support measures only and the ambulance is not unreasonably removed from its primary area of response. C In life-threatening situations (e.g., unmanageable airway or uncontrollable hemorrhage) in which the estimated time of arrival (ETA) of the paramedics exceeds the ETA to the MAR, EMT -Is should exercise their clinical judgement as to whether it is in the patient's best interest to be transported prior to the arrival of paramedics. D. EMT -I personnel may transfer care of a patient to another EMT -I team if necessary. II. Transport of Patients by Paramedic Personnel A. . Patients should be transported to the MAR unless: 1. . The base hospital determines that a more distant hospital is more appropriate to meet the needs of the patient; or 2. The patient meets criteria or guidelines for transport to a specialty care center (i.e., Trauma, Pediatric Trauma, ST -Elevation Myocardial Infarction Receiving Center, EDAP, Pediatric Medical Center, Perinatal); or 3. The patient requests a specific hospital; and a. The patient's condition is considered sufficiently stable to tolerate additional transport time; and b. The EMS provider has determinedthat such a transport would not unreasonably remove the unit from its primary area of response. If requests cannot be honored, the provider should attempt to. arrange for alternate transportation, i.e., private ambulance, to accommodate the patient's request; and c. The requested hospital does not have a defined service area. (For hospitals with a defined service area, refer to Section V of this policy_) PAGE 2 OF 5 SUBJECT: PATIENT DESTINATION REFERENCE NO. 502 4. The medical facility has requested diversion to 9-1-1 patients requiring advanced life support (ALS) as specified in Ref. No. 503. ALS units may be directed to an alternate open facility provided: a. The patient does not exhibit an uncontrollable problem in the field as defined by unmanageable airway or uncontrolled hemorrhage. b. The involved ALS unit estimates that it can reach an alternate facility within fifteen (15) minutes, Code 3, from the incident location. If there are no open facilities within this time frame, ALS units shall be directed to the MAR, regardless of its diversion status (exception: Internal Disaster). B. Paramedic personnel may transfer care of a patient to another paramedic team if necessary. If base hospital contact has been made, the initial paramedic team shall advise the base hospital that another paramedic team has assumed responsibility of the patient. C. BLS patients transported by ALS personnel may be transported to an alternate open facility if the MAR has requested diversion. NOTE: On an "as needed" basis, the EMS Agency may extend the maximum transport time. lll. Destination of Restrained Patients A. Restrained patients shall be transported to the most accessible basic emergency. department facility within the guidelines of this policy. Allowable exceptions: 1. Patients without.a medical complaint with a 5150 order written by a designated Department of Mental Health Teams when transport to a psychiatric facility has been arranged. 2. A law enforcement request for transport to medical facilitiesother than the closest may be honored with base hospital concurrence. IV.

The 12 -lead electrocardiogram (EKG) in the prehospital care setting is a key component to the early diagnosis and ongoing definitive treatment for patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI). 2. 12 -lead EKGs are used with a variety of patients. The goal is to incorporate the 12 -lead EKG into the decision making about the ST -elevation MI (STEMI) patient. The transmission or reporting of the STEMI should decrease "door -to -intervention" times in 9-1-1 receiving hospitals. 3. Only paramedics who are employed by a provider agency with a 12 -lead EKG program and who have received the required training may perform a 12 -lead EKG. 4. The 12 -lead EKG should be performed as part of a complete assessment for a patient with chest pain/ discomfort or a patient suspected of experiencing an acute cardiac event. 5. Necessary medical treatments shall not be delayed in order to obtain a 12 -lead EKG. GUIDELINE: 1. Apply standard Lead II monitor. Treat rhythm as appropriate. Perform 12 -lead EKG in conjunction with applicable treatment guidelines. 2. A 12 -lead EKG shall be acquired on patients who complain of chest pain/discomfort of suspected cardiac etiology and/or patients who the paramedics suspect are experiencing an acute cardiac event. 3. Paramedics should utilize the computerized analysis of the EKG machine. If the computer analysis of the 12 -lead EKG indicates an acute STEMI or the manufacturer's equivalent of STEMI, this information shall be conveyed to the base hospital. Transmit, if capable, the 12 -lead EKG demonstrating STEMI to the receiving STEMI Receiving Center (SRC) if requested. 4. Every effort should be made to maintain patient's privacy and dignity while obtaining 12 -lead EKG readings. 5. Label the 12 -lead EKG with the sequence number from the patient's EMS Report Form.

The applicant requested an appeal on this decision to the City Council. • July 11, 2006: The City Council sustained the decision of the Planning Commission to require 2 -hour free validated parking, and 6 -month re-evaluation of the program. • July, 2006: The building owner implements the 2 -hour validated free parking. The implementation includes prominently displayed signs advertising the 2 hour validated free parking in all public areas and at entry locations. Analysis: The applicant, Still Water Contemporary American Bistro, is requesting a Conditional Use Permit for on -sale general alcohol in conjunction with a restaurant pursuant to Section 17.40.080 of the Zone Code. A Parking Plan Amendment is also being requested to modify the allocation of uses to increase the proportion allocated for restaurant. from 4,000 square feet to 8,000 square feet. A retail wine and cheese shop will occupy approximately 1,500 square feet of the restaurant square footage. The proposed restaurant and retail wine and cheese areas are located on ground floor of the Hermosa Pavilion and will feature: a public dining area; "private dining rooms"; bar and lounge; foyer/hostess area; patio with seating areas; wine/cheese retail displays; pantry; cook -line; prep area; service area; scullery/storage area and kitchen/storage/coolers for restaurant facility. The seating plan identified 35 tables with 178 seats. The applicant indicates that the hours of operation will be 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. for the retail wine and cheese sales and the lunch and dinner hours for the restaurant (11 a.m-2:00 p.m. & 5:00 p.m. -10:00 p.m.). The original request included lounge hours until the 2:00 a.m. Off -sale wine sales is a permitted use by -right until 11:00 p.m., and the applicant indicates that it will not be open later than 10:00 p.m. Staff recommended that the C.U.P. establish one set of operating hours from 7:00 A.M. to 12:00 midnight which was incorporated into the Planning Commission approval, with the retail wine shop limited to 11:00 P.M. 2. • The applicant has also represented that wine tasting services will be provided in the wine retail areas but will not provide any fixed seating in this area. Regarding entertainment, no entertainment will be provided according to the applicant. The floor plan identifies no stage, and any future events or modifications to the floor plan identifying a stage area for playing music requiring amplification will require an acoustical study and a Conditional Use Permit Amendment application. The proposed restaurant is part of a multi -tenant building with secured parking and access from the central building lobby on Pacific Coast Highway and the parking garage. The restaurant is proposed to be an upscale, full service -dining establishment with ancillary retail wine and cheese tasting. These uses and the proposed business operations are consistent with the goals of the General Plan which call for "affirming the commercial character of the highway" and the general definition of the C-3 zone which is intended to provide " opportunities for the full range of office, retail and service businesses for the city and appropriate for the Pacific Coast Highway". (Page 105, Land Use Element, General Plan). The full service restaurant will complement the other uses within the commercial building and is consistent with the character of the commercial corridor. Though bars and restaurants serving alcohol have been a permitted use for many years along the commercial corridor, the area is not heavily impacted with these uses. Staff surveyed the commercial corridor and found that of the 306 business along the corridor there are sixteen restaurants. Of the sixteen restaurants located on Pacific Coast Highway, only nine have CUP's for "on -sale" beer/wine, and two have CUP's for full alcohol. (See attached survey). Further, the proposed business is not considered a bar or lounge use as less than 643 square feet of the restaurant is allocated to the bar area, representing less than 10% of the floor area. The restaurant is entirely enclosed within a secured and insulated building and should not negatively impact abutting commercial and residential uses. Therefore the proposed restaurant is appropriate to the zone, a fitting use for the area, compatible with other uses in the multi -tenant building and consistent with the goals and objectives of the General Plan. Parking Plan: The proposed Parking Plan amendment is required to update and modify the allocation of uses within the Hermosa Pavilion including the proposed restaurant. The potential parking impacts associated with the requested restaurant changes from 4,000 square feet of restaurant, space to 8,000 square feet of restaurant was addressed in the latest Parking Study Report/Shared Parking Analysis for the Hermosa Beach Pavilion, prepared by Linscott, Law & Greenspan, Engineers on February 13, 2006. In addition to updating the allocation of uses to reflect actual tenancy, including all the latest modifications, and evaluating the day spa uses, the report identified and assessed future restaurant space of 8,000 square feet (the proposed restaurant and the existing cafe), and found that weekday peak shared parking demand of 426 spaces can be accommodated by the 454 standard spaces and 42 tandem spaces as provided with the latest revised striping layout plan. Thus the study indicates that proposed uses do not significantly impact the supply of parking (Pgs. 4, 27 & 28, LL & G Study). Resolution No. 06-16 (which pertains to the entire Hermosa Pavilion) addressed detrimental effects of spillover parking and was sustained by the City Council. Given that the proposed restaurant intensifies the demand for parking in the building and that the required parking is based upon a shared parking analysis, staff has included conditions of approval to require free 2 -hour validated • • parking for customers of the restaurant consistent with the decision of the City Council and review of the CUP if there is a problem identified with the building parking adequacy or efficiency. In order to monitor the applicant's performance relative to the modified Parking Plan, staff conducted an informal survey of the parking garage and surrounding streets on August 2, 2006 at 6:00 P.M.. Staff observed significant use of the parking garage and did not observe large volumes of cars parking on 16th Street east of Pacific Coast Highway or within the surrounding residential streets and did not observe people leaving their cars and walking to the Pavilion Health Club facility. Staff did observe several cars parking on the west side of Pacific Coast Highway with drivers leaving their cars and walking to the health club, however, many club users were also observed entering the parking garage from Pacific Coast Highway via the 16th Street entrance.

The City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve and order as follows: Section 1. An application was filed by Stillwater, LLC, on behalf of Stillwater Contemporary American Bistro, seeking approval for on -sale general alcohol in conjunction with a new restaurant proposed in the Hermosa Pavilion, and amendment to the Parking Plan (P.C. Resolution 03-45) to modify and update the allocation of uses approved as part of the shared parking analysis. Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearings to consider the application for the Conditional Use Permit and Parking Plan Amendment on July 18, 2006, and August 15, 2006, at which testimony and evidence, both written and oral, was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission, and based on said evidence the Commission approved the Conditional Use Permit subject to conditions as set forth in P.C. Resolution 06-22 Section 3. On September 12, 2006, the City Council, pursuant to Section 2.52.040, initiated review and reconsideration of the decision of the Planning Commission. Section 4. The City Council conducted a duly notice public hearing to review and reconsider the decision of the Planning Commission'on October 10, 2006, at which the record of the decision of the Planning Commission and 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, the City Council makes the following factual findings: 1. On August 19, 2003, the Planning Commission adopted P.C. Resolution 03-45 to approve Precise Development Plan and Parking Plan to remodel and expand an existing commercial building and to allow shared parking to accommodate a new allocation of uses within the building including a health and fitness facility, office, retail and restaurant uses. The approval included an allocation of 4,000 square feet for restaurant use. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 • 1 3 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 • • 2. The proposed restaurant will increase the allocation for restaurant use to 8,000 square feet, and proposed changes also include updates in the allocation of uses to reflect other minor modifications that have occurred since 2003 in the allocation of uses within the building. 3. The site is zoned SPA -8, Commercial, allowing restaurant uses, and on -sale general alcohol with approval of a Conditional Use Permit. 4. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider the revocation or modification of the Precise Development Plan and Parking Plan on April 18, 2006, pursuant to Section 17.70.010 of the Zoning Ordinance (sub -sections E and F), and adopted Planning Commission. Resolution No. 06-16 (which pertains to the entire Hermosa Pavilion) to address detrimental effects of spillover parking and which supersedes P.C. Resolution 03-45. Section 6. Based on the foregoing factual findings, the City Council makes the following findings pertaining to the application to amend the Conditional Use Permit: 1. The site is zoned S.P.A. 8 which permits on -sale alcohol in conjunction with restaurant uses, and the site is suitable for the proposed use; 2. The restaurant is located entirely within a secured, sound insulated building with entry only from a common lobby accessible only from Pacific Coast Highway and no outdoor use is permitted for the business; 3. The restaurant is separated from adjacent residential uses by the Hermosa Pavilion's fully enclosed parking garage to the west, the width of Pacific Coast Highway to the east and more than 100 feet of building frontage to the north, thereby mitigating potential noise impacts from the business; 4. The proposed use is compatible with the commercial uses within the Hermosa Pavilion, consistent with the commercial character of the highway corridor and sufficiently secured within a multi -tenant building to be compatible with adjacent residential uses; 5. The imposition of conditions, including a limitation on the hours of operation, no outdoor dining and the requirement for free validated parking, as required by this resolution will mitigate any negative impacts on nearby residential or commercial properties; 6. This project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to Section 15303c of the California Environmental Quality Act. Section 7. Based on the foregoing factual findings, the findings for the Conditional Use Permit, and the updated shared parking analysis prepared by Linscott Law and Greenspan; Parking Study Report, dated February 13, 2006, the Planning Commission makes the following findings pertaining the application to amend the Parking Plan to modify the allocation of uses within the Hermosa Pavilion: 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 • • 1. The Parking Study Report identified and assessed all updated allocations including future restaurant space of 8,000 square feet (therefore including the entire approximate square footage of the proposed restaurant facility), and found that weekday peak shared parking demand of 426 spaces can be accommodated by the 454 standard spaces and 42 tandem spaces as now provided with the latest revised striping layout. 2. Thus the study indicated that the shared parking impacts were immaterial to the supply of parking (Linscott Law and Greenspan; Parking Study Report, pg. 27). 3. The detrimental effects of the spillover parking which has occurred at the Hermosa Pavilion, documented in the Parking Study Report , and potentially exacerbated with a new restaurant, will be mitigated with the condition requiring free validated parking applicable to the restaurant and to the entire building. Section 8. Based on the foregoing, the City Council sustains the decision of the Planning Conunission and hereby approves the Conditional Use Permit for on -sale general alcohol in conjunction with a restaurant and approves the amendment to the Parking Plan to modify the allocation of uses, subject to the following Conditions of Approval. 1.

CUP 06-4 -- Conditional Use Permit for on -sale general alcohol in conjunction with a restaurant, Still Water Contemporary American Bistro, and Parking Plan amendment Planning Commission Minutes August 15, 2006 jj • • to modify the allocation of uses within the Hermosa Pavilion at 1601 Pacific Coast Highway #170, AKA 1605 Pacific Coast Highway (continued from June 20 and July 18, 2006 meetings). Staff Recommended Action: To direct staff as deemed appropriate from the following alternatives: 1) Approve the request subject to the conditions of approval contained in the attached resolution; or 2) Consider the building parking problems that have occurred over the last six months and advise the applicant to resubmit the project permit application once it has been demonstrated that building spillover parking has been resolved. Director Blumenfeld noted that a lengthy staff report was presented at the previous meeting on the nature of the business and application; he briefly reiterated that this is a proposed parking plan amendment and a conditional use permit for on -sale alcohol in conjunction with a restaurant; advised that the proposed restaurant will occupy approximately 7,038 square feet; that there is an existing cafe on the first floor of the Pavilion, where this project will be located; and that there is also a retail and wine shop that will occupy 1,535 square feet, as part of the business. He clarified for Vice -Chairman Allen that the actual footprint of the restaurant is 7,038 square feet; and of that, there are other related retail uses that are located within the restaurant -- a wine and cheese shop that occupies 1,535 square feet. He advised that the applicant is requesting a midnight closing for the entire facility; noted the restaurant will be a full-service restaurant; that it provides seating in a bar area, provides a retail area for wine and cheese — noting that this area contains no fixed seating; that the owner is not proposing amplified live entertainment; and that in the future if they were to propose that use, it would require a CUP amendment. Director Blumenfeld pointed out this restaurant is proposed within an enclosed building that fronts on a commercial corridor; that it's complimentary to the other uses within the building; advised that staff surveyed the highway and found there are approximately 306 businesses -- about 16 restaurants, 2 of which serve full alcohol, and approximately 3 percent of the businesses within the commercial corridor serve alcohol, or beer and wine. He noted the commercial corridor is not heavily impacted with alcohol related use; pointed out there is approximately 10 percent of floor area in the business for the bar area, stating this is primarily a restaurant; and concluded that the useis appropriate to the zone, to the area, consistent with the goals and objectives of the General Plan, compatible with the zoning and the businesses within the multi -tenant building. Director Blumenfeld advised that with respect to parking, staff has been monitoring affects of parking in the garagesince modification of the building parking plan and found improvement along adjacent streets and along the highway and increased parking in the garage. He reviewed the recommendations for the Commission to consider; stated if the Commission chooses to approve the on -sale alcohol permit, that the CUP for the restaurant be based on conformance with the Pavilion Parking Plan; noted that violations of the Parking Plan are cause for submittal of a report to the Planning Commission, which would automatically initiate a CUP review; and the restaurant use is tied to the operation of the parking facilities within the building. He indicated the operating hours should be noted as 7:00 A.M. to 12:00 midnight daily; recommended that the allocation of uses shown in the shared parking analysis attached to staff report should be part of the draft resolution, as indicated in staff report; that the kitchen shall remain open during operating hours; if there are repeat violations of noise orsecurity or nuisance conditions or excessive occupancy of the establishment, he advised that would be grounds for either the police chief or fire chief to report to the Planning Commission, initiating an automatic review by the Planning Commission. He stated that the 2 hour free parking validation �2. Planning Commission Minutes August 15, 2006 • • program shall be instituted for this business as it has been for the rest of the building; that parking signs indicating these parking arrangements shall be displayed within the restaurant; and that the CUP be subject to Planning Commission review after 6 months based on the date of the business opening. Each Planning Commissioner present this evening advised they were contacted by Gene Shook and that they met with him and his consultants to discuss this project; and Commissioners Allen and Perrotti advised they had also talked with various residents about this project. Commissioner Perrotti questioned when the building housed the AMC Theatres, was there a record of any violations from that former business. Director Blumenfeld advised that staff checked the records and found no violations on record. Vice -Chairman Allen opened the public hearing. Gene Shook, applicant, provided a slide presentation of what is proposed for this business, highlighting the ceiling designs, elaborate/high-end materials, exposed kitchen, chandeliers, specialized lighting, wine bottle walls, etc.; stated that with the free 2 -hour parking program, he will be losing anywhere from $300,000 to $1 million in lost revenue; stated that he has seen a decrease in on -street parking on the neighboring streets; and that there has been an increase in the number of people parking inside the structure. He advised that he is trying to gain the support of 24 Hour Fitness to get the parking issue out to their clients. He mentioned that he is seeking a midnight closing time for the business, but added that for very special occasions, he would like to stay open later if the need arises, such as a Christmas party. Mr. Shook pointed out that his CUP is one of the most restrictive in the City and that he does not want this business to turn into a bar or nightclub, that he is only interested in providing an upscale restaurant that serves full alcohol. He advised that approximately 8,300 invitations were sent to the City's residents, inviting them to an open house for this restaurant; stated that a couple hundred people attended the open house; and that an overwhelming majority had positive responses to the proposed restaurant. Mr. Shook urged the Commission to correct the square footage for the allocation of uses. Director Blumenfeld explained for Vice -Chairman Allen that the allocation of uses which are shown in staff report are also the allocation of uses that were quantified in the parking study by LLG; that if there are to be some other uses considered,they would need to be quantified; advised that he and Mr. Shook had a lengthy discussion regarding this issue earlier today; that he told Mr. Shook he would share Mr. Shook's concerns with the City Attorney; that they will review what the Commission and City Council had previously reviewed and approved with respect to the business and then make a recommendation; advised that if there is a need to make some change, staff will need to bring that forward to the Planning Commission. Mr. Shook stated that these items were addressed in the LLG parking report, but that there wasn't square footage established to go with them, that it was only verbiage; and that he is seeking only to clarify those numbers so that someone does not confront him with any problem regarding those exact numbers in the future. He mentioned that the VIP lockers have already been approved and the health and fitness club have been built exactly to the plans and that he is not seeking additional square footage. Director Blumenfeld recommended that the Planning Commission not act on the applicant's request to change the allocation square footage at this time until staff has discussed this issue �3 Planning Commission Minutes August 15, 2006 • • with the City Attorney; stated that the Planning Commission has a resolution which shows 105,000 square feet of approved area related to the original Parking Plan approval; noted that staff has quantified through a parking analysis the uses that are shown in staff report; that the matter Mr. Shook wants to address needs to be taken up by the City Attorney; and that if a change needs to be made, then it can be handled as a separate matter. He added that these other allocations are not the subject of this application; that the only issue under consideration is the restaurant CUP and the restaurant parking demand. Mr. Shook reiterated he is not going to build the buildingwider, change the square footage or footprint of the building, but he does not want the Commission to approve something then have a resident come in and say it was built larger than plans allowed. Director Blumenfeld explained that the allocations shown in the resolution are the operating conditions for the applicant; stated Mr. Shook processed an application and originally received an approval for 105,000 square feet; that increased over the course of Mr. Shook's approval process, he's added close to 30,000 square feet of floor area within this building. He added that the Commission's concern primarily with this business is not so much how it'smodified on the interior, but with how the modifications affect parking and whether the uses within the building are allowed within the. zone. He stated it's important to keep track of the use allocations, and quantify every proposed change.. He reiterated that if there is a significant change that will affect parking, then the Commission should review the CUP or Parking Plan because the Commission would want to make sure there is an adequate balance between the supply of parking and parking demand. He reiterated that other allocations are not the application before the Commission this evening. Mr. Shook urged the Commission to simply change something from 20,3.00 to 20,400 square feet, to change 9,600 to 10,000 square feet; pointed out that the walls are already up and that there is no increase to be done. Larry Hospensen, resident, requested this matter be continued until after the Public Works Commission consider how the signal and the parking conditions are working on 16th Street and PCH; and he expressed his belief the input 'from that meeting may materially adjust how the Planning Commission will make its decision.

Pacific Coast Highway (continued from June 20, 2006 meeting). Staff Recommended Action: Direct staff as deemed appropriate from the following alternatives: 1) Approve the request subject to the conditions of approval contained in the attached resolution; or 2) Consider the building parking problems that have occurred over the last six months and advise the applicant .to resubmit the project permit application once it has been demonstrated that building spillover parking has been resolved. Director Blumenfeld stated that the applicant is requesting a CUP for on -sale alcohol in conjunction with a full-servicerestaurant, which is located in the Hermosa Pavilion; and that the applicant is also requesting an amendment to the Parking Plan that controls the operation of the building. He noted that the restaurant contains 7,038 square feet; in addition, with approximately 1,500 square feet of appurtenant wine and cheese retail shop — noting that the overall net restaurant area is 5,503 square feet; and advised that the plan shows 35 tables with seating for 178 people. He stated that the owner is requesting restaurant operating hours from 11:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M., with the lounge area closing at 2:00 A.M.; and stated that consistent with the recent Planning Commission and City Council action, staff is recommending if this item is approved, that the Commission restrict the business hours to 12:00 midnight. He advised that there is no proposed live entertainment and mentioned that any request for live entertainment would require an amendment to the CUP; advised that the wine shop is permitted by right in this zone so long as it closes by 11:00 P.M., which is what the owner is proposing to do. Director Blumenfeld stated that the restaurant is part of a multi -tenant building - the Hermosa Pavilion - which was approved for renovation and reuse under a shared parking analysis; advised that last week, the City Council amended the Hermosa Pavilion Parking Plan to require 2 hours of free validated parking for building customers in order to resolve inefficiencies in parking operation that were creating spill-over parking in the neighborhoods; and noted that the effects of this recent amendment will be evaluated in 6 months to determine whether any other measures are required to deal with this spill-over parking. issue. Director Blumenfeld advised that the owner has also started to implement some of these requirements under the amendment by posting permanent signs at the main building entries and within the building garage, indicating the availability of this free validated parking. He mentioned that the 24-hour Fitness management has indicated they will promote the free validation parking program for their clients; and he mentioned that staff visited the parking garage and was able to confirm that the parking validation program is in effect and operating; and he expressed his belief the owner is tQ Planning Commission Minutes July 18, 2006 • making a clear attempt to implement the requirements of the parking amendment. Director Blumenfeld stated that the proposed restaurant use is located in a secured building, which has access from the garage and from a central lobby that fronts on Pacific Coast Highway (PCH); explained that the proposed business is an upscale, full-service restaurant with no live entertainment; and that the use and the proposed business operations are consistent with the goals of the General Plan in the C-3 Zone, which affirms the need for a full range of office, retail, and services, businesses which are appropriate for the highway. He stated that this full-service restaurant compliments the other uses in the building, both from a parking demand and a use standpoint; and advised that the shared parking analysis indicates that during peak periods, there are between 235 and 397 surplus parking spaces available in the garage. He mentioned that in terms of the commercial area compatibility, there are 306 businesses that are located along the commercial corridor - 9 restaurants that offer beer/wine and 2 that offer full alcohol, representing 3 percent of the highway businesses, and that from a land use standpoint, the proposed use is consistent with the General Plan, with the zone, that it is compatible with other uses in the building and in the commercial area. Chairman Hoffman questioned if the automobile spa issue has been resolved. Director Blumenfeld stated that staff has been in discussions with the operator of that use to advise a CUP is required; that the business has indicated intent to apply for a CUP; and that the business will stop operations until the proper permits are issued. Chairman Hoffman opened the public hearing. Eddie Benton, restaurant project designer, highlighted a number of high quality restaurant projects his firm has designed in the South Bay area; stated that the owners are committed to spending approximately $3 to 4 million in making this a world-class operation; and with the aid of a power point presentation, he addressed the proposed floor plan and restaurant design. He advised that the entry into the restaurant will be through the existing Pavilion; stated there will be a private wine room and dining room; and that the bar area will be approximately 10 to 15 percent of the overall restaurant area. Raymond McBermer, executive architect with SAA, stated that Mr. Shook will be developing the front space into a. men's and women's retail store and a high-end salon; stated that the design will compliment the City's environment and that the design will. be vibrant and unique, but elegant. Chef Chauchereau, partner with Mr. Shook, distributed to the Commission menus from one of his restaurants; stated that this restaurant will serve high quality, organic food and merchandise; commented on his experience in the 4 -star restaurant business; and reiterated that he will be bringing to this community a fine dining experience. He mentioned that he regularly participates in community events. Gene Shook, property owner, highlighted his attempts to put in place quality tenants that work well in this environment; commented on the large expensive to build this type of space, noting that approximately $4 million will be invested in this project; and mentioned that this restaurant will house over 100,000 bottles of wine in a temperature controlled storage area. He stated that because of this large expense, he would like to have better language in the proposed CUP so that the City cannot shut down these operations due to events beyond his control; and noted his concern with the 6 -month review process, pointing out that it will take at least 7 months to 19 Planning Commission Minutes July 18, 2006 • • construct this project. He addressed his concern with Condition No. 17 in that it is too restrictive of the square footage — noting that it is easy in a building of this size to miscalculate the square footage and that it is easy to be up or down a bit in square footage. He stated that this building was approved for 100,005 square feet plus 11,000 square feet in storage area, but that this approval is showing 100,000 plus 10,600 on the storage; reiterated his concern that sometime down the road another Commission or City Council will say he's over by a very minute amount and shut the operation down; and he urged the City to provide him with a workable CUP. He stated that everything is in place and that he is ready to start construction and that he is opposed to waiting 6 months to determine if parking is still a problem. Mr. Shook explained that the auto spa business uses steam to clean the cars and that this information was placed in the February report; and stated that he gains one parking space with this use because of its ability to stack the cars in a triangle and its service to mostly people already patronizing the building. Ron Miller, resident, noted that he lives adjacent to the parking structure; he passed out photographs taken from his balcony of the parking lot activities; and stated that he does not yet see any change in 'the problems concerning spill-over parking and speeding and noisy traffic and pedestrians. He addressed his concern and opposition to serving alcohol until 2:00 A.M.; and stated that the noise has become a huge nuisance for the residents. Lee Grant, resident, stated that the people who patronize this building have flooded his neighborhood with parking, increased traffic, speeding and noise; and that it has ruined the tranquility of his neighborhood. He noted his opposition to this establishment serving alcohol and opposition to the large square footage of this restaurant; stated this area is above the license limit for alcohol service in this City, according to ABC's guidelines; and he asked the City to discontinue issuance of liquor licenses. Jim Lissner, resident, recommended that the hours for alcohol sales be restricted during the weekdays. Larry Hopkins, resident, stated that Friday and Saturday nights are the most problematic and require more policing and he questioned if this area will assigned additional public safety service if this project is approved. He stated that the noise has become a big nuisance for the residents; and expressed his belief the 2 hours of free validated parking is ineffective; and he stated that the restaurant activities should be restricted to no later than 10:00 P.M. Leslie Neff, resident, suggested placing speed bumps on 16th Street to slow the traffic; she thanked Mr. Shook for the big improvement to what was previously a blighted building; noted her support for a high-end restaurant, but that she is not supportive of a lounge because of the nuisance to the neighbors when the patrons leave the establishment. Carla Merryman, representing the Chamber of Commerce, expressed the Executive Committee's support for the upscale StillWater Cafe in the Hermosa Pavilion; noted that other restaurants with food in this price range and upscale quality in the City close at midnight and have perfect police records — noting that those other restaurants do not provide free parking; and stated that all 3 of these upscale restaurants are geared for young professionals, older residents and family dining and that she believes the type of customers who will patronize this business will be of the caliber this City needs. She stated it is important to recognize that the sales and property tax generated by the local businesses accounts for a major portion of the City's General Fund, which is spent by the City on street lights, street repairs, sanitation and 20 Planning Commission Minutes July 18, 2006 • • signage for the residents; and stated that the more upscale businesses are approved, the more attractive this City will become to other neighborhood friendly companies looking to relocate and that this will bring positive changes to this community. Carl Niven, resident, stated he is opposed to any alcohol sales because of the on-going noise problem from the current patrons of this facility — noting he has made numerous calls to the police regarding the noise nuisance; stated that the City is well over the limit for ABC licenses in this area; and that these sales are negatively impacting many neighborhoods in this City. He commented on the problems with parking, noise, hazardous traffic, garage exhaust; expressed his belief the free parking is not working; and noted his belief this business will turn into a late night club. Howard Longacre, resident, reiterated his concern that policing activities of restaurant/bar businesses is draining the City's funds, noting these businesses are very small tax revenue generators for the City; and stated that many times, restaurants eventually fail and morph into night clubs and bars. He stated that the City needs to develop an SPA for this area; and noted his opposition to granting another alcohol license in this community. Alan Thomen, resident, highlighted the large percentage of restaurants that have failed in this community; and stated that the patrons who use this building create huge impacts to the quality of life to the residents, such as speeding traffic, lack of parking and noise. He expressed his belief that if alcohol is served at this location, it will create the need for taxi service; that the taxis will be cruising the neighborhood for drunken patrons; stated there is currently inadequate policing in this area; and noted his opposition to more alcohol sales in this community. Patty Egerer, resident, stated that research indicates the high concentration of alcohol outlets in a location can hamper the economic development; that while such businesses can be heavily patronized, they add very little intrinsic value to the community as a whole and they make the area less attractive to other types of retail business; and she stated there are too many bars and night clubs in this community. She stated that more police service is needed in this community and stated that according to ABC standards, this community is over -saturated with alcohol outlets. She stated that the entry to the restaurant appears to be located off PCH, noting this will create a traffic hazard; and advised that she provided staff with some correspondence, asking that the issues outlined in this correspondence be addressed. Linda Miller, resident, stated that policing in this area is already too limited and noted her opposition to approving another alcohol license. She stated that the Pavilion traffic has had a huge impact on the residents. Nathan Koher, administrative assistant to Mr. Shook, highlighted some of the neighboring communities which compare to the Hermosa Pavilion and the close proximity to residential areas, pointing out that these successful locations don't provide free parking. Ms. Lesiow, resident, addressed her concerns with the noise and speeding traffic coming from this facility; and noted her opposition to approving alcohol sales. Karen Carr, project director for the South Bay Coalition, a substance prevention collaborative, commented on the abundance of alcohol establishments in Hermosa Beach, believing this can send the wrong message to kids that alcohol is essential and necessary to having a good time; and advised that research shows if youth start drinking before the age of 14, they are 4 times more likely to become alcoholics later in life; and noted her opposition to more alcohol Zl Planning Commission Minutes July 18, 2006 sales/business in Hermosa Beach. Gregg Sampson, resident, noted his frustration with having to continually attend meetings and piecemealing together some resolve for the residents who are negatively impacted by the Pavilion business; and stated he would support for alcohol sales up to 10:00 P.M., no later. Eric Riley, resident, stated that alcohol is not necessary at this facility, but that if it is approved, they should not be permitted to sell alcohol past 10:00 P.M.; expressed his belief the two-hour parking has not curbed the parking problem on 16th Street; and stated that this project should be put on hold until the parking and traffic issues are solved in this area. Rosalind Bender-Thomen, resident, stated that the residents' safety and satisfaction should take priority in this community; addressed the growing problems with traffic safety, parking and noise in this area; and noted her opposition to more bars in this community. Mark Hopkins, resident, stated that he and his neighbors have had their vehicles and property struck by drunk drivers; and noted his concern with bringing in more bars to this community. Mr. Shook asked that this business be permitted to operate the same hours as other restaurants in the area, noting that midnight is an acceptable hour; clarified that the substantial amount of wine inventory is for patrons wishing to purchase bottles that will not be consumed in the restaurant, noting that by right, these sales are permitted without a CUP; and stated that the restaurant occupies less than 5,500 square feet. With regard to the noise level, he advised that Schaffer Acoustics conducted testing and provided a noise report, after which he replaced all of the parking lot exhaust fans and spent a substantial amount on acoustic noise dampeners. He stated that the doors to the restaurant off PCH is a front fire exit and is legally required by the Fire Department. He added that this restaurant will be offering vehicles to transport its patrons. There being no further input, Chairman Hoffman closed the public hearing. Chairman Hoffman requested staff to provide clarification on the square foot allocation as in the ordinance versus the various approvals. Director Blumenfeld explained that the condition in this resolution is the same condition originally approved in 2003 and which Mr. Shook agreed to abide by. The wording in it is identical to the wording in the original Precise Development Parking Plan. He stated that Mr. Shook committed to that condition by affidavit; that the condition has not changed except for the allocation numbers. He noted that because staff recognizes it's difficult to track the various uses as they come and go, the condition has some latitude. It says "the allocation of uses shall be substantially consistent or less than the following allocations," which gives room for interpretation; also at the end of Condition No. 17, it says, "any material changes to this allocation will require an amendment," which means a substantial change. He reiterated that this wording has always been in place; and stated that if there is an issue relative to allocation, Mr. Shook can always petition the Commission for a change, as he has previously done. Vice -Chairman Allen questioned if ABC would consider this area over -concentrated in terms of alcohol licenses. In response to Vice -Chairman Allen's inquiry, Director Blumenfeld stated he is not sure how ABC would characterize the area; explained that staff simply looked at the number of uses on the highway, the area most affected; that based on the over 300 businesses along the highway, ZZ Planning Commission Minutes July 18, 2006 • approximately 3 percent of the businesses, are restaurants serving alcohol, noting there is not evidence to indicate these businesses along the highway create any nuisance. Vice -Chairman Allen questioned if the police are consulted on all projects. Director Blumenfeld stated that staff does not consult with the police department on all new projects; that staff will consult with the police and fire department when dealing with specific security and safety issues; and mentioned that staff is involved on an intradepartmental basis in looking at all the Downtown businesses and all the bars and restaurants, that the City is working on a multi -agency review of these uses in the City. With regard to the net effect to the City and the cost benefit, he explained that as a practical matter, food service has helped make up for some of the loss in City revenue with the relocation along the highway of major auto dealerships; stated that auto dealerships were the larger sales tax producers; and noted that hotels have come to replace these businesses, which have provided substantial increases in transient occupancy taxes (TOT) over the last 10 years, starting with the opening of The Beach House. He stated the City does not do a cost benefit analysis on every project, that one has not been done that for this business; noted that staff believes there will be an economic benefit; and pointed out that the City has already enjoyed the benefit of eliminating a blighted building that existed along this highway for almost 15 years. He pointed out that staff has been working with the owner to get solid uses in this building. Commissioner Pizer asked for clarification on the spa car wash business. Director Blumenfeld explained that the similar use provision says that if the use is no more intensive than a use that's already identified on the permitted use list, then that use can be approved through a consent review by the City Council; in the case of the car wash, he noted that this use clearly, as defined by the City, is a car wash, but using different technology. He stated the owner would need to process a CUP. He pointed out that the auto spa is a collateral issue, but that the resolution, if approved, reflects the fact the use must be addressed. Vice -Chairman Allen stated the design of the restaurant is nice; questioned whether its use will further complicate the parking problems in this area; and expressed his belief the City is going in the right direction to solve the parking problems and that it's unreasonable to expect it would be solved over night by putting up placards in the last two days, that's it's going to take some time to get the word out. He stated that if the restaurant were to be approved, there would be a lot of conditions these residents would want to see, believing the 2 -hour validated parking for a lounge is not enough; and noted his concern that if this restaurant were to fail, it may become another nightclub, suggesting that a condition be added that no cover charge be permitted. He noted his preference to solve the parking problem before adding in this business; and stated he is generally opposed to another alcohol license in this City; however, people should be permitted to enjoy wine with an expensive meal. Commissioner Pizer highlighted the blighted condition of this site for many years, noting that Mr. Shook has invested a lot of time and energy into making this an asset to the community; pointed out that Mr. Shook is bringing in quality businesses to this location; but noted his concern with granting an alcohol license and the possible future use of the restaurant as a bar/nightclub; and he suggested that the conditions limit the operating hour to 12:00 midnight, no amplified music, live entertainment, or dance floors. He expressed his belief the customers of this restaurant will use the parking structure, that the type of clientele will not be looking to save a couple dollars on parking; he recognized the impact on the residents' daily lives is a major concern, but stated he does not think the impacts from this project will be serious. He suggested amending Condition 23 Planning Commission Minutes July 18, 2006 • • 5, limiting the hours of operation and no outdoor dining, adding that "...no outdoor dining or drinking allowed." Commissioner Kersenboom stated that Mr. Shook is doing all he can to make this venture a success; pointed out that the problems are from those using the gym; and expressed his belief this upscale restaurant will only impact the City by improving the quality of food service in this community. He stated that Public Works and City Council need to become more involved in dealing with proactive and effective policing of the city streets, with the issue of people improperly parking on the streets and racing up and down the streets; stated he would expect a fine dining establishment to offer wine; suggested putting more teeth into the conditions to keep control of this if it changes ownership in the future; and expressed his belief this restaurant will be a good asset for the City and that he does not believe this business will compound those problems. Commissioner Pizer reiterated his suggestion for a 12:00 midnight closing time in the conditions, believing this time limit assures future night club control. Commissioner Kersenboom mentioned that Mr. Shook's letter indicates he does not want the CUP reviewed annually. Director Blumenfeld stated that the Commission always has the authority to review and modify a CUP; however, it is correct that a CUP runs with the land, not with the business. He added that Condition No. 1 says, "the interior and building alterations in the continued use and operation of the restaurant with appurtenant uses shall be substantially consistent with the plans submitted and reviewed by the Planning Commission"; noted that if a use presented is substantially changed or the layout of the business is substantially changed, it is subject to Commission review; and similarly, if the function changes, then the parking may change, which also causes a review of the parking. He added that the Commission always has the ability to review relative to conformance with a project approval; and stated that the Commission must be satisfied that the approval gives the Commission enough latitude to adequately regulate the business. Chairman Hoffman stated that the seating plan calls out approximately 175 seats, questioning what the occupancy load would be; and asked for further clarification on the waiting area requirement. Director Blumenfeld stated that the owner is required to submit an occupant load and seating plan; stated that code allows 3 square feet per person for waiting; otherwise, the area is occupied based on the number of seats; noted that the Building Code indicates the waiting area must be used for that purpose; that if it's a retail area, it's a general occupancy load of 1 person per 15 square feet of floor area and it's seating or the use classification that dictates the occupant load number. Chairman Hoffman pointed out that Mr. Shook has created a project that is too successful, having created too much traffic, noise and parking impacts; stated he is not yet convinced the validated parking will solve the problem; and stated the Commission cannot consider this application in isolation of the rest of the businesses in this building. He noted that a lot of fine dining establishments have failed in this town which have morphed into bars; expressed his belief the City has. created a business environment in parts of this community where fine dining restaurants cannot succeed because the clientele is not willing to come to that location,' and stated there are valid concerns for the potential of a future bar. He noted his support for restricting the hours and not allowing entertainment; expressed his belief that the square Planning Commission Minutes July 18, 2006 footage of this restaurant should be decreased; and stated that even an upscale restaurant will create some impacts to this neighborhood, questioning how many cabs/cars will be circulating that building to serve the clientele. He stated he will be voting against this project because the scale of the proposed establishment is too large. MOTION by Vice -Chairman Allen to DENY the proposal and moved to monitor the parking problems. Chairman Hoffman seconded the motion, with a clarification that the parking problems will be monitored for the next 6 months regardless of this motion.

MOTION by Commissioner Kersenboom to CONTINUE this case for six months following a parking report to determine if the 2 -hour free validated parking has had a positive impact.

This motion was ultimately rescinded. Chairman Hoffman stated that he will not be present at the next Commission meeting and that a full quorum will not be possible for August. Commissioner Pizer pointed out that the 8,000 square feet includes space for retail and stated it's not out of scale. Director Blumenfeldstated that while there still is some disagreement in the calculation of the square footage, staff believes the restaurant is approximately 5,000 square feet. Vice -Chairman Kersenboom noted that the free validated parking should be given a chance to see if it solves the parking issues before this project is approved; and suggested consideration of a continuance. Director Blumenfeld stated that a case can be continued for 3 consecutive meetings before a new notice is required.

The Hermosa Beach Pavilion is located at 1601 Pacific Coast Highway in the City of Hermosa Beach, California. The project site is bounded by existing development to the north and west, 16th Street to the south, and Pacific Coast Highway to the east. The HBP project site and general vicinity are shown in Figure 1-1. The preparation of this parking analysis complies with the project's Condition of Approval, whereby a parking study update (Le., an update to the study prepared as part of the entitlement process for the project), including a determination of parking demand, must be provided within six months of the occupancy and subsequent operation of the 24 -Hour Fitness facility (a tenant of HBP). Shared parking demand analyses have been prepared to reflect existing occupancy at HBP in terms of square_footage-and_land..use...types,.. aswell as for ..the ..pllarmed. fiiture occupancy ...at._build-out...of...the . facility. Parking accumulation surveys of on-site parking demand have been conducted to document existing parking demand based on existing occupancy. In addition, IBP patron intercept surveys have been conducted along with visual observations of on -street and off-street parking near the site to identify existing project -related parking in the neighborhood. This study i) updates the shared demand analyses based on existing and future occupancy at HBP, ii) documents existing parking demand at the site, iii) provides a summary of the HBP patron intercept travel surveys, iv) identifies project -related parking within the neighborhood, and v) provides recommendations to address existing parking conditions, where necessary.

As this auditorium type use is e o providefacility desi� a for children's events, booked events typically do not conflict with school times. Based on the experience of the operator, the facility typically closes at 7:00 PM on Mondays and a greater number of events are booked towards the latter part of the week or on weekends (e.g., during Friday or Saturday evenings). A letter from the tenant representative is included in Appendix A and provides further clarification regarding existing operations. The letter shows a substantially lower parking demand than what is included in the shared parking analysis. 2.1.2 Future Building Occupancy As indicated in the lease data provided in Appendix A, the HBP project at full occupancy consists of a total of 99,980 net square feet of building floor area. This square footage total excludes the planned kiosks (i.e., 360 square feet of space) and areas G401, G402, and G403 which are designated storage areas and total approximately 10,583 square feet of space. At future project build -out, the following land use and square footages are anticipated based on the leasing information.: • 24 -Hour Fitness: 46,049 square feet • Spa: 13,038 square feet • General Retail: 9,554 square feet • Restaurant: 7,950 square feet • General Office: 20,353 square feet • Auditorium: 3,036 square feet A large component of the restaurant square footage is attributable to the future occupancy of the StillWater Bistro restaurant. The 7,950 square feet of restaurant space includes 912 square feet associated with the existing StillWater Cafe (i.e., formerly Kelly's Coffee) and over 1,000 square feet of planned retail square footage within the StillWater Bistro restaurant. Therefore, the analysis contained herein can be considered conservative in that restaurant parking ratios are higher than retail parking ratios. The weekday shared parking analyses contained in this report reflect typical restaurant weekly patronage fluctuations. A letter from a StillWater, LLC., representative has been prepared which summarizes typical weekly patronage levels and is also included in Appendix A. As noted in the letter, the Monday patronage levels are roughly 50 percent of that experienced during peak times (i.e., during Friday and Saturday evening conditions). 2.1.3 Existing and Future Project Parking Supply As indicated in LLG Engineers' May 16, 2005, update to the project shared parking analysis, a total parking supply of 540 spaces is provided within the HBP parking garage. Of this total, 454 standard spaces, 42 tandem parking spaces and up to 44 parallel parking spaces are provided. It is important to note that the shared parking analyses reflect a supply of 496 spaces as it is assumed that the proposed project will utilize the 454 first access parking spaces and the 42 tandem employee only UNscorr, LAW & GREENSPAN, engineers LLG Ref. 1-06-3625 HBP Parking Study Report ONOb P11.EU62Sre?4nJ625•Apa.doc As indicated in Table 4-2A, a shared parking demand of 368 spaces is forecast for the future Monday weekday condition. As indicated in Table 4-2B, a shared parking demand of 369 spaces is forecast for the future Friday condition. As indicated in Table 4-2C, a worst-case theoretical shared parking demand of 426 spaces is forecast for the future conditions assuming concurrent peak utilization of all HBP land uses. All three analyses indicate that the project's parking supply of 496 spaces (excluding the 44 parallel parkingspaces), is more than sufficient to satisfy parking demand based on the future tenant occupancy. LINSCOrr, LAW & GREENSPAN, engineers LLG Ref. 1-06-3625 HBP-Parting Study Report o:UOP_En.EIS i S rivortutizsapa_dor • 5.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS This parking analysis of the Hermosa Beach Pavilion (HBP) project has been prepared to provide an update to the previously approved project shared parking demand analyses, document existing and future anticipated parking demand at the site, and identify any project -related parking in the neighborhood. A total parking supply of 540 spaces is provided within the MBP parking garage. Of this total, 454 standard spaces, 42 tandem parking spaces and up to 44 parallel parking spaces are provided. It is important to note that the shared parking analyses reflect a supply of 496 spaces as it is assumed that the proposed project will utilize the 454 first access parking spaces and the 42 tandem employee only parking spaces. As a contingency, should additional parking spaces be needed in the future, 44 parallel (i.e., aisle parking spaces) can be made available for use with attendant assistance. The project's parking supply has been determined to be more than adequate to meet current and future parking demands. Based on the patron intercept surveys and the visual observations of weekday and weekend conditions, neighborhood on -street parking has been documented. It is recommended that HBP representatives initiate an informational program to encourage HBP patrons to park on-site within the parking garage, emphasizing the safety and convenience of doing so. In addition, any validation program is determined by each individual tenant (e.g., the 24 -Hour Fitness facility currently provides a parking validation which results in a $1.00 fee for the first two hours), however, monthly parking passes to 24 -Hour Fitness members are currently offered and will continue to be promoted. It is important to note that other 24 -Hour Fitness facilities throughout Southern California charge for parking. It is also recommended that the City of Hermosa Beach, along with HBP representatives, consider implementation of a residential street permit parking program (e.g., for local residential streets situated east of Pacific Coast Highway) in the immediate vicinity of the IBP site. These types of programs are common in beach communities, downtown areas, and near educational/institutional facilities, and would preclude non -permitted vehicles from parking on -street. The City may also consider parking removals or limited parking through the installation of parking meters or further restrictions (e.g., one-hour parking restrictions) along various street segments.

We do need the midnight close 7 nights per week. The CUP has no use of TV's in restaurant. Many high end restaurants have the use of TV's in discrete areas (for example Fleming's has flat screen TV at the bar area). We would also like to have the ability to use a TV in our retail area's to show information on the products we will sell and in our private dining rooms. We would ask that this provision is removed or reduced to no TV's in main dining area.

DEPT. RE: The Pavilion Public Hearing, October 10, 2006 Dear Mr. Mayor and Members of the City Council, We wish to go on record as opposed to the issuing of a Conditional Use Permit for the general on -sale of alcohol in conjunction with the building of a restaurant in the Pavilion for the reasons/issues raised in the remainder of this letter. A simple solution is to deny the CUP and correct the current problems. The plans call for a mega bar/restaurant - - 8000 sq. ft. of it. The local area surrounding the Pavilion contains high density housing for residents. This bar will impact the lives of all the residents living within a 5 block area. The addition of a bar which can contain some additional 400+ patrons at any given time from 6 pm to 12 pm will create major issues for the area. The parking garage already has the `garage full' sign out around 6 pm sometimes in the evening. Where are these additional 200-300 plus cars for the restaurant going to park. Evidently the Pavilion was soliciting $10 for `event parking' during the Labor Day weekend. Does this violate their CUP, Parking Plan and Municipal Code (reducing available parking)? The new bar/restaurant will be within 600 feet of the Hermosa Valley Elementary School. School children flow up and down 16th street going to and returning from school. Passing a liquor establishment with your kids is not high on parents/residents priority lists. Fast driving and increased traffic on 16th and Ardmore place children at risk. Suggestion: 1. Find way to reduce traffic on 16`h street and Ardmore. 2. The city should make sure that the bar/restaurant is within State law for distance from a school. If not deny license. The new bar/restaurant will become another drinking hole if the restaurant does not work out. If we have to live with a bad decision granting the license then limit the project so that: 1. Liquor may not be sold unless consumed on-site. No bottle sales. 2. Outside tables/chairs for dining/liquor consumption will never be allowed 3. Restaurant may not have any form of live or video entertainment 4. No noise will be heard outside the building 5. Liquor license only valid until 9 pm. That way the patrons may leave earlier so that major noise and issues from patrons drinking too much will not violate HB Municipal Code regarding noise after 10 p.m.. • • What is the density of liquor serving establishments in Hermosa Beach? Some number mentioned is 90+. Putting another liquor license in a residential area is a flag to the home owners that Hermosa Beach is supporting business not residents and in the long run will encourage residents to leave for a quieter environment. Rumors has it that the license for Club Saffire is being revisited by the City. This club is a disgrace for Hermosa Beach Residents and families have observed semi-nude dancing in the front windows in order to draw people in. People drinking and hanging out in the Ardmore parking garage at 1 am. or so and disturbances in that garage have increased Police responses. Because there probably is not enough business to support a high end restaurant, we believe that at some point in the next year or so this new restaurant will go the same way as Club Saffire. 1. Only issue a new liquor license when one expires or is abandoned and only after extensive public hearings. 2. Reduce the number of licenses to a number more realistic for Hermosa Beach. We would like to think that the residents count, but as one attends the various City Commissions and Committees it is easy to lose faith. The Pavilion has consumed hundreds if not thousands of hours of time for city employees as well as residents. The Pavilion project is oversized and one wonders how the owner was able to increase the usable inside space by more than 40% from 1998. We really would like some quality of life type of businesses in the building. The will never happen because the building owner has a financial interest in the new businesses including the new bar/restaurant. During Planning Commission meetings a large number of residents clearly detailed the many problems that the Pavilion has brought to the area. I actually presented pictures of the traffic and parking problems and later was rebuffed by a Planning Commission member for staging the pictures. They were not staged and were snapped at random from my patio. The Pavilion owner, Shook, had an opportunity to meet with each of the Planning Commission members outside of the public hearing (as stated by them in the Planning Commission public meeting) and subsequently they approved the license request. The residents were not offered such an opportunity. We thank the City Council for allowing us to provide input for the October 10th meeting. Also: 1. We invite each of the City Council members to come to 16th street and spend a couple of hours (try 5-7 pm) viewing and listening to the noise from the Pavilion Parking Structure and the traffic on the street. The installation of the traffic light at PCH/16t street has routed thousands of cars down 16th street (west of PCH) so they can avoid the congestion created by the traffic light at 16th and PCH and the traffic light at Pier Ave and PCH. Traffic counts taken by the city Public Works and the consultant's report did not consider 16th street west of PCH; only east of it. The counts from the Public Works consultant indicated that some 4000+ cars a day use the one block long 16th street west of PCH. Traffic counters were removed last week so new counts should be available now. • • Speed levels have increased on 16`h street. At times during the day, namely 5 pm — 8 pm., the traffic is so heavy that cars turning into the Pavilion parking garage are blocking 16th street. Tonight at one time I counted 32 cars trying to move on the street. The traffic light at PCH and 16th street creates long lines on 16th street. The north most lane (turning lane) on 16th street along side of the Pavilion Parking structure is not usable by cars turning into the Pavilion parking garage because of the tight turns necessary to enter the narrow openings of the garage. Some suggestions: 1. Remove street light next to entrance of Pavilion garage entrance. 2. Widen the entrances to the garage. 3. Make the north turn lane the only lane to enter the garage from. 4. No left turn into the Pavilion parking garage for cars going east on 16th street Note photo of pickup and auto turning into the Pavilion parking garage from center lane: Opening up the parking garage with 2 hour free parking was supposed to reduce parking problems locally but can not work when the `parking full' sign is posted outside of the entrance. Traffic is so bad that parking elsewhere and walking is easier than waiting to enter the parking garage. The Pavilion Parking Garage has increased the noise levels from the street dramatically, and at all hours. The new restaurant will only add to that noise. A simple solution is to deny the CUP and let us correct the current problems/issues. We personally are getting pricing for installation of sound reduction door/windows for our condo. Maybe the Pavilion would opt to pay for them. Suggestions: 1. Make valet parking available (free) when general parking is full 2. City should not allow Pavilion `event parking' which reduces available parking. 3�" • • 3. Review the CUP and the Parking Plan to find out why the Pavilion garage open parking is full and only valet parking is available. Maybe an allocation problem? If a parking problem exists now how can an additional 200-400+ cars (over several hours) be figured in the building planning without impacting the local parking or increasing the traffic on 16th street. Solutions do exist. 1. Deny the CUP request for a liquor license 2. Create a parking district requiring stickers for resident cars. 3. Place speed strips on 16th street. 4. Consider making 16th street one-way Thank you for your consideration, Ron and Linda Miller 1600 Ardmore #213 Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 310-937-9052 ron_wamba@verizon.net 3$ City of Hermosa Beach Mayor and Council Members 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 September 12, 2006 SEP 1 2J65 RE: REQUEST FOR APPEAL OF CUP 06-04 "PAVILION" 1601 PCH. Dear Mr. Mayor and Members of Council: I respectfully disagree with the assessment made by the Planning Commission on August 15, 2006. An appeal is requested. There are a combination of variables that require consideration; 1. The general plan fails to protect residential neighborhoods or acknowledge the concentration of alcohol outlets within our community. The "plan" is an inadequate planning tool, because its outdated. This proposed usage is not "compatible" with our neighborhood. (Tavern style restaurants, entertainment venues, late night clubs with disc jockeys, amplified music and dancing all of which are allowed along PCH poses conflict with residential.) 2. Public safety is reduced by the proliferation of alcohol outlets. Our police services are burden with alcohol related disturbance calls. Thiscreates a dependence on "mutual aid" support, when a disturbance call is received. 3. Misrepresentations are contained in the CUP. Statements that purport existing and future impacts to the surrounding neighborhood have been mitigated, lack basis and must be stricken. 4. The "conditions of approval" contained in the CUP are inadequate in scope. 5. The restaurant's scale is excessive. If alcohol is permitted at this location nuisance conditions will develop. These negative impacts will create turmoil, and progressively threaten the quality of life for surrounding residents. 6. The parking structure still operates in violation of municipal code 17.44.050. A reconfiguration of the Parking Plan is necessary. The lack of standard parking stalls needs study. Question: How does a "non -conforming" building that was originally overbuilt in 1986 expand its leaseable sq.ft. by 51%?

That • decision will become final unless the City Council holds an appeal hearing. . Some argue that a midnight closing is early enough to guarantee no impact on the city or the neighborhood. I believe that there is a good argument that at least the weekday closing times could be earlier. At an earlier meeting, the applicant partners distributed copies of a Mother's Day Brunch menu from one partner's restaurant in San Juan Capistrano. They also brought with them their French chef, in full chef's regalia. Recently, I obtained a copy of the regular dinner menu from their San Juan Capistrano branch. I have attached a copy of it as well as of the Mother's Day menu they previously distributed. When I reviewed those. menus, they reminded me of the sophisticated menus submitted by some other CUP applicants in Hermosa Beach. I keep a file folder with old menus and have attached, for your review, copies of.old menus from Patrick. Molloy's and Pointe 705.. The similarities (other than the prices) are striking. . lb tip • • My point, in case it is not already clear, is that a sophisticated menu provides us no assurance as to how the place will be operated later on. But if we accept, for sake of argument, the developers claim that 1601 PCH will remain a fine -dining restaurant, then based upon his statement it would be fair to compare the proposed hours to the actual operating hours of other fine dining restaurants in the South Bay. Fleming's Steak House: open 'til 11 weekends, 10 weekdays. Chez Melange: open 'til 10, seven days. We can also look at the closing times Manhattan Beach has set for its four most -recent new full.liquor approvals. Shade hotel: open 'til 12 weekends, 11 weekdays. ..Juniors DeliBoys.: open.

September 3, 2006 City of Hermosa Beach Mayor and Council Members. 1315. Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 RE: CODE VIOLATION & RECISSION OF CUP HERMOSA PAVILION, 1601 PCH. Dear Mr. Mayor and Members of Council: the Labor Day weekend, the owner of the Hermosa Pavilion solicited "event parking" for his violates the PDP, Parking Plan, and Municipal Code. A chamber event is not an se to operate this garage as an auxiliary parking lot. Compliance issues have been at issue since August of 2005, and continue. Code prohibits the "reducing diminishing or elimination of existing required off-street parking." Municipal Zoning Code 17.44.050 (Unlawful to reduce available parking) A commission's decision in April of 2006 was upheld in July of 2006. The city required owner to provide 2 -hour free parking to all patrons. SHOOK, owner of the "Pavilion" refused to implement this policy voluntarily. Forcing residents to cope with conditions over an (11) month period. Once again, the owner of the Pavilion is in direct violation of municipal zoning code by diminishing parking availability. Shook's parking garage has created a marked increase in vehicular traffic along 16th Street. A review of the PDP and Parking Plan is essential. Nuisance conditions have become a chronic pattern, action needs expediting. Rescind CUP 06-04 (Conditional Use Permit for on -sale general alcohol in conjunction with restaurant, together with amendment to Parking the Plan) of which modifies the allocation of uses within the Hermosa Pavilion. This document approved by commissioners contains misinformation. For multiple reasons this proposal for an 8,000 sq ft mega restaurant -bar will burden residents, and is an incompatible use for the area. Rescind CUP 06-04 Parking Plan amendment: The parking plan is flawed by design, and deters and reduces one's ability to self -park their vehicle. The "double parking" or "valet parking" of vehicles is a counter productive strategy. By design it diminishes parking availability on city streets, causing spillover. The general public prefers to retain control over the keys to their vehicle, not valet park, or waste time waiting upon an attendant to retrieve their vehicle, prior to exiting the building. The policy will displace customers who will resort to parking on surface streets within residential neighborhoods. The "approved" parking plan is flawed by design. MODIFY THE PARKING PLAN TO ALLOW ALL CUSTOMERS AND EMPLOYEES TO SELF PARK THEIR VEHICLES. A restaurant usage with alcohol consumption compounds impacts. Hours of operation that extend beyond 9:00pm are undesirable for neighborhood. Tenants should NOT have authority to operate later than 9:00pm, on any night of the week with the exception of the gym tenant due to the building's proximity to residential neighborhoods. So • • A neighborhood street (16th Street) is being converted into a main traffic artery to service the commercial corridor. Chronic impacts such as traffic noise, traffic volume, traffic flow, and parking impacts are progressive, and disruptive. On August 16, 2006, a public works. hearing was conducted. 'A large number of residents from the "Hermosa Hills" attended this meeting. The consultant's report and recommendation defied creditability. The consultant from AAE and the Director of Public Works concluded the installation of the traffic signal had not changed traffic volumes entering 16 Street east of PCH. In addition, "Since NO significant volume changehas occurred further analysis is not warranted." Once again, residents were denied consideration, and resolution. Consistently, the city has acted to accommodate, enhance, and safeguard the economic interests of Mr. Shook, owner of the Pavilion, without consideration to the quality of life or property rights of residents in the surrounding area. The imbalance is very disturbing, and results in negative impact for residents residing in the surrounding area. For over a year, we have invested our time, and have encountered a charade of committee meetings, delays and counterfeit reports. This communication is evidence of a formal written complaint, which requires attention of council at the next meeting on September 12, 2006. Respectfully, Patty Egerer Resident St s Lisa Brannan & DanAlinan 1610 Raymond Ave. (Northeast corner of 16th & Raymond) Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 September 11, 2006 Mayor & City Council: Peter Tucker, Michael Keegan, J.R. Revicsky, Sam Edgerton, Kit Bobko and Steve Burrell, City Manager 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 Re: Appeal the Planning Commission Decision Gentlemen, Please consider appealing the Planning Commissions decision to grant the C.U.P. for the Hermosa Pavilion. I am writing to share my thoughts regarding the lack of concern for the residential areas adjacent to the Hermosa Pavilion building. It was clear at the Planning Commission meeting that there was a strong sense among the residents in the adjacent neighborhoods, that we are extremely concerned about the impacted by this building's potential restaurant facility. Our concerns are about the city granting yet one more potential problem in our community a liquor license, lengthy hours of operation, and massive square footage with alack of required parking. It seems that our concerns are not being heard. I am asking again, DO YOU NOT HEAR US? PLEASE LISTEN TO OUR CONCERNS AND ACT UPON THEM WITH THE SAME REGARDS THAT YOU ARE WITH THE OWNER OF THE HERMOSA PAVILION. The problems already exist down at the Pier Plaza and at the nightclub 705 underneath the Vons Parking. Why knowingly would you want another neighborhood to endure the same problems you are currently aware of? I have, in a previous letter, mentioned an incident that occurred at the Kid's Kabaret. My understanding is that multiple bands were invited to perform at the Kid's Kabaret for the younger teenage crowd as this facility appropriately has no liquor license. The word got out about this particular performance on "My Space" on the internet and it brought an older crowd. My understanding is that the owner and the security they hired were unable to handle the swelling crowd. The Fire Department and Police Department were called in. The event was shut down and the owner was fined and arrested for having too many occupants. If this can occur at the Kid's Karbaret without the influence of alcohol, just imagine the chaos that could occur when alcohol is introduced. I urge you to please work with us in keeping Hermosa neighborhoods a great place to live, raise families and feel safe.

Dear Mr. Shook: This letter is to inform you that a request for a review and reconsideration before the City Council has been filed by Councilrnember Tucker and Mayor Edgerton of the decision described above by the Planning Commission at its meeting on August 15, 2006. The request, filed September 12, 2006, has been set for a Public Hearing before the Hermosa Beach City Council on Tuesday, October 10, 2006, at 7:30 P.M., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard. This hearing will be held in the Council Chambers of City Hall at 1315 Valley Drive. If you wish to submit any written evidence to be considered by the City Council at this meeting, we request that these items be received by the Planning Division of the Community Development Department by noon on Wednesday, October 4, for inclusion in the City Council agenda packets. Legal notification and posting of the property will be handled by staff on or before September 28,2006. A. staff report may be obtained on or about Thursday, October 5, 2006, at the end of the business day, from the Planning Division of the Community Development Department. On or about Friday, October 6, it will be on the City's website at www.hermosabch.org. Please address any questions to the Community Development Department at 310-318-0242.

DEV DEP I In evaluating the pros and cons of making 16th Street one-way West between Prospect and PCH you should consider the impact on 16th Street between PCH and Ardmore. 1. There has been a significant increase in traffic in both directions since the 24 Hour Fitness Center opened. 2. Southbound drivers on PCH are using 16th Street and Ardmore as a bypass around the light at Pier Avenue. 3. There is a student crossing for Hermosa Valley School at 16th and Ardmore. Any additional traffic increases the possibility of any accident. With all that is going on in this area I think it would be poor planning to reduce the traffic flow options by making 16th Street one-way. Charles Doherty Hermosa Beach Charles Doherty Hermosa Beach, CA 5�O SUPPLE ENTAL. INFORMATION- rage 1 oI Z . • Jackie Drasco From: ronwamba@aol.com Sent: Wednesday, July 26, 2006 7:02 PM To: Jackie Drasco Subject: Problems on 16th Street I am requesting that the following email and attached pictures be forwarded to the City Manager and if appropriate the City Council. I also request that an agenda item be added to a forthcoming meeting that will deal with the issues contained in this email. The issues below have been brought to the Planning Commission and they indicated that many of these types of issues need to be forwarded to either the City Manager or the City Council. If for some reason the pictures do not appear or there is a problem I can deliver a hard copy to the City Clerk. Therefore, based upon statements at the Planning Commission meeting I am requesting that the following issues be addressed and resolved. am a resident residing at 1600 Ardmore #213 at the Commodore Condo's. My home is the closest to the parking structure of the new building housing the Pavillion's parking structure. Sixteenth street (16th st) has become a virtual drag strip, raceway, and new parking lot. I have attached a number of pictures taken from my balcony which clearly illustrate the increase in the volume of traffic and the disregard for parking regulations. We also see few police patrols on the steet. Last night at 6 pm I turned at the new PCH traffic light west onto 16th street and headed down the hill. I traveled about three car lengths and the traffic was stopped in both directions as people tried to get into the Pavillion parking garage. When I finally had a clear road in front of me, I continued down the hill when a pickup truck heading east and trying to turn into the Pavilion parking garage pulled across the road and blocked the entire road while he waited to get into the parking structure. He tried to block the entire street. I was able to go around the front of his truck and he started swearing at me and was trying to come after me, but traffic stopped him. Cars turning into the Pavillion refuse to let cars going straight down 16th street go through. There is a parking turn lane on the north side of 16th street but it is not used because cars can not make the tight turn into the garage. They think there is a 3 way stop in the front of the Pavillion parking garage. I am 66 and who needs this. Meanwhile, the street remained blocked in both directions and other cars were waiting/parking in the VON's loading area. We are aware that both the Planning Commission and the City Council approved the changes to the parking in the Pavillion that require 2 hours free parking. That was a positive move but it is just not working. It is too hard to enter the Pavillion parking garage. Come out for a few days and see for yourself. The worst time of the day is 5 pm to 7 pm but the problems continue up to 2am in the morning. Customers of the Pavillion's parking garage peal their tires in and out of the parking garage and tear up and down sixteenth street. Car horns are continuously blaring in the early evening and that continues until 2 am in the morning. Truck drivers of 18 wheelers have started blowing their horns (very loud) in order to get cars parking in the Von's loading area moved. This is right outside our windows. Car owners are allowed to run their radios wide open, like boom boxes, while in the Pavillion garage and upon leaving. Night before last someone was working on their car at 2 am which was parked across the street. This woke me up and I watched a person go between the Pavillion garage and the car which was under the street light. The guy working on the car at 2 am in the morning was wearing a shirt that had 'SECURITY' across the back. The Planning Commission was assured both verbally and 7/27/2006 S9 rage L of Z • • in writing that the garage has staff who oversee it. What are these 'parking professionals' doing? Fitnness Center patrons are also walking and standing outside the parking garage on the streets up to and past 2 pm. These people are really noisy and they yell right outside our windows. Can't get much sleep anymore. Last Monday, the HB Police had someone on the curb right outside our window at 11 pm. Guess they were dealing with a drinking issue as we have many that go up and down our streets between 11 pm and 3am in the morning. Another late night for us. The above issues go on every day of the week. The Pavillion Parking Garage has cars on the right side trying to exit to the left and cars from both east and west trying to get into the garage. What a mess. The design of the garage entry is surely lacking and the existing turn lane is not usable. Maybe our city engineer should evaluate the access at 6 pm in the evening and propose a better solution. Cars and semi's trucks park in the red zone on 16th street in front of the Commodore Condo's. Appears there has been little or no effort on the part of the Pavillion ownership to encourage their patrons to use the parking garage. Because of the problems and wait lines getting into the garage, patrons are parking elsewhere. They park all over the streets in front of residences. If the Pavillion has so much parking available why don't the patrons use it? When I place calls to the police they may or may not show up and it might be an hour later. Does not help much when a semi is outside your window with its engine running or cars are in the Von's loading area late at night with their lights on shining in our windows. Parking control has been doing a fair job but many times they also take an hour to show up. If there is an emergency in the city it must come first, but I have seen city police cars go around illegally parked cars and trucks after I have called in an issue and they just continue down the street. Guess that is not their job? I was assured by the Police Chief and Lt. Lance Jaakota that our problems would be addressed in a timely manner when we requested assistance. Service was good for a while but lately response has been very slow or non existant. Unless our area has increased police patrols problems will only increase. We need relief on 16th street right now. Some citizen suggestions: 1. Position an unmarked police car on the street to ticket the speeders, the noise makers, and the drunks. Fines could be used to hire an officer. 2. Lower the speed limit on 16th street to some reasonable value such as 15 or 20 mph and enforce it. 3. Make 16th street a one way street. Not ideal but a solution that has worked in other areas in Hermosa Beach. 4. Require Parking Control to make some passes up/down the street at prime times and ticket people parking in illegal parking areas such in the Von's truck unloading area. 5. Consider placing speed strips/bumps on 16th street so that both the trucks and cars have to slow down. 6. Make parking on 16th street resident sticker parking only and on Pacific Coast Hwy in front of residences/condo's resident sticker parking only. 7. Make 16th street a quiet zone so the patrons of the Pavillion and cars or trucks using horns can be ticketed at any hour and enforce it. S. Make responding to a problem reported by the community regarding parking, speeding or the Pavillion a priority. No one appears to be doing anything right now. 7/27/2006 Page 3 of 28 • • We know that this is not a perfect world and change does take time. We only ask that some cares enough to address issues that are real and continuing and that has been expressed by so many local residents in the last few planning and council meetings. The last Planning Commission meeting brought out at least 40+ people to speak to the parking, speeding, and other issues related to the Pavillion and the area surrounding it, including the request to open a lounge and restaurant in the Pavillion. Right now selling liquor at that location should be the last choice for the City Council. The residents of the area do not support this and seek relief from current problems before addressing any new issues. We want our former quality of life back. Attached are a few pictures taken from my balcony of the numerous illegally parked cars and trucks and the confusion on the street that they cause. Sorry for the quality, but if requested I can provide many more and of a higher quality. 1 provided approximately 70 pictures to the Planning Commission. I would be happy to provide any additional information that is needed and would also be available for more details.

Jackie Drasco Deputy City Clerk City of Hermosa Beach Original Message From: Doug Vikser [mailto:vik.fam@verizon.net] Sent: Monday, June 19, 2006 5:50 PM To: City Clerk Subject: Attention Planning commission My name is Doug Vikser and I reside at 963 15th Place. I just found out that the Planning Commission is considering granting a CUP to a new restaurant at the Hermosa Pavilion that will have bar service until 2:00 am. As if people from the gym parking on 16th Street and speeding up and down the street isn't bad enough? Now you're going to allow "drunks" to walk our street and scream and yell at all hours of the night (in addition to speeding and driving drunk and endangering our children). What's is it going to take for you people to consider our problems? Does a child need to get killed on 16th Street (the way the 15 year boy was killed crossing PCH at 16th Street) to get your attention! After all the problems the neighborhood has had with the parking on 16th Street you are going to exacerbate it by allowing drunks on the street! You people need to start represent us and not just Gene Shook!! JUN G 2E6 Ce[V+. DEV. DEP [: SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION • Stephen Burrell, City Manager • All Hermosa Couxcil Members (PieLv►n, ,z3 Coon.-, css a- A) 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 • JUN 9 9 2KS i!. DEV. DEP[ My name is Rosalind Bender-Thomen and I am a resident at 909 - 16th St. since 1969. My parents owned the International House of Pancakes for 14 years, so I've seen many changes locally. However, Hermosa was always a quiet, safe, and family-oriented city. Residents' safety and satisfaction were always foremost. Thus said, I would like you to please consider my comments, as they are the same feelings as many of my neighbors. June 16, 2006 The whole issue of the traffic light placed at 16th St. and P.C.H. came about quite unexpectedly and without prior notice given to the residents, or there would have been an outpouring of protests right from the beginning. When the residents of (and near) 16th Street did appear at 2 City Council meetings, we were heard, but no actions to resolve the on-going problems have been taken yet. And we now understand that the next Council meeting on June 20th is going to discuss the newly proposed "Alcohol Outlet Bar/Restaurant"??? If you grant license to an Alcohol Outlet Bar -Restaurant, you will be creating even more problems for the residents of 16th St. and surrounding areas !! We already can hear live music coming from Pier Ave. bars, the nearby Hotel, and the beach festivals. If you grant a new alcohol license on P.C.H., we will be dealing with even more noise, loud music, traffic & safety issues, parking problems, and possibly drunk drivers! Currently there are four major issues that we see now facing the residents of 16th Street: TRAFFIC, SAFETY, PARKING, & NOISE. TRAFFIC: Prior to the light, we already had more drive-through traffic going to & from Pacific Coast Hwy. and Prospect Ave. than our narrow, and not safely visible little street could handle! We still have constant traffic from neighboring Coast Pet Clinic, 2 schools' traffic, hotel traffic, and daily work traffic cutting to & from Pacific Coast Hwy. Now that the signal has been installed, we additionally have traffic to & from the Vons Shopping Center and the 24 -Hr. Fitness members, using our street as a thoroughfare. SAFETY: Additional traffic has brought additional safety issues to our street. We are living at the crest of 16th St., which is a "blind spot" for drivers. We already had problems getting out of our driveway, but now, thanks to the traffic light, and the 24 -Hr. Fitness members, people are speeding up & down our street, sometimes reaching 40-50 m.p.h.! We see people turning U-turns in the middle of the street, or in our driveways to get an available parking space. In the past, we lost 2 pets to the drive-thru traffic that unsafely speeds up and down our street at all hours. I can't begin to imagine the constant worry and fear that the parents of our street endure daily concerning their childrens' safety. And drivers ignore the Children Safety signs that have been placed. Additionally, we are a Neighborhood Watch community, but with so many strangers parking on our street now, safety has become an even bigger issue. It is now difficult to know who does not "belong" in our neighborhood, and who should be reported as being "suspicious". One young man was even observed, in the afternoon, completely changing his clothes behind his car! PARKING: We already have an on-going parking problem, as there is parki on onlyone side of the SUPPLEMENTAL 6 INFORMATION street. Many of us have verliall, narrow driveways that were not b>or new & larger vehicles, so we depend upon street parking. Gardeners, service people, contractors, and Coast Pet Clinic employees, already take up most of the available resident parking during the day. Now the 24 -Hr. Fitness Gym members are using our street for parking, and walking across the street at the light!! (see attached listing on last page) NOISE LEVELS: Additional traffic has also brought additional noise issues to our street. Even with dual - glazed windows throughout our home, we still hear traffic noises, car radios, and people standing outside their cars talking at all hours. The peacefulness of our little neighborhood has been invaded by constant noise and traffic. And adding a Bar -Restaurant on P.C.H. will only intensify the noise and traffic problems we are experiencing. The residents of 16th Street already have enough traffic problems, without more being created for us!! By installing the traffic light at the bottom of 16th Street, it is now easier for more people to use our street for parking or drive-through purposes! By doing so, safety, parking, and noise issues have doubled or tripled. We invite any or all of you to physically stand on 16th St. (not use a "box"), and witness for yourselves how much daily traffic and parking problems we are having that impact our lives. The hours of 3:00 - 8:00 p.m. are primetime hours for any of you to come and observe those issues about which we speak. Recently we spoke with Jeff Duclos, a candidate for City Council, who was in our neighborhood. During the 15 minutes that we spoke, he could not believe the amount of traffic and safety issues that we all observed. And twice we were almost run over by speeding drivers, middle-of-the-road drivers, or U-turn offenders racing for a parking space! As a School Counselor, long-time resident, and tax -payer, I believe, vote and support City government. And I strongly believe that the Hermosa Beach City Council can quickly resolve these issues facing 16th St. residents should they choose to do so. The Council has reached speedy resolutions in the past with other Hermosa streets. So please help us now ! Thank you for your time, consideration, and prompt action in this extremely important matter. We hope to see you all at the June 20th meeting. Sincerely, liceo<taix,„4 Rosalind and Alan Thomen 909 16th Street.

Hermosa Beach Planning Commission Venue: Planning Commission Meeting of 8-15-06 Subject: 1601 PCH, CUP for Restaurant with Alcohol Commissioners: This is my second letter regarding this matter. I also wrote you on the 10th, and a copy of that letter has been included in your packet materials for today's meeting. At an earlier meeting, the applicant partners distributed copies of a Mother's Day Brunch menu from one partner's restaurant in San Juan Capistrano. Recently, I obtained a copy of the regular dinner menu from that restaurant. I have attached a copy of it as well as of the Mother's Day menu they previously distributed. When I reviewed those menus, they reminded me of the sophisticated menus submitted by some other CUP applicants in Hermosa Beach. I keep a file folder with old menus and have attached, for your review, copies of old menus from Patrick Molloy's and Pointe 705. The similarities (other than the prices) are striking. My point, in case it is not already clear, is that a sophisticated menu provides us no assurance as to how the place will be operated later on.

The Hermosa Pavilion applicant plans a new '8,000 -square -foot drinking destina- tion that will radiate impact throughout our cherished neighborhoods, degrading our safety and living environment: During a public. hearing in July, 'the ap- . plicant's pitch was full.of fluffy talk about cuisine, decor and culinary expertise, to distract from the inescapable issues. .An 'approval if granted would require evaluation in isolation. Aggregate impacts and high concentration of alcohol busi- nesses within our community to be dis- missed. Risk variables, complaints, public testimony 'and police Service calls (alcohol- related) all to be dismissed as immaterial, to achieve the goal of increasing .alcohol density. What is the benefit of increased alcohol density? The inordinate amount of city staff time to rehabilitate the pink elephant (1601, 1605, 1617 PCH) is a dismal failure if this alcohol land -use per- mit is granted by the city. "In the interest of neighborhood and community, the pending application sub- mitted by the owner of the Hermosa Pavilion requires rejection -denial. This 8,000 -square -foot commercial space then becomes an opportunity for the owner to focus on an ideal leasing option such as a professional (low impact) office tenant to of.s.i t, the popular high-impact°gyin. tenant that operates `247. ` W` The next public hearing'regarding this matter is scheduled Tuesday, Aug. 15, at 7 p.m.;•in City Council chambers.

Not enough income Hermosa Beach has a severe imbalance of late-night liquor -consuming visitors when residents are home. Cash from those visitors is going to restaurant opera- tors, cabs and other associated entities, with a tiny trickle reaching the city to pay for the safe environment provided them. City spending for policing and- public safety is now $43,000 per day. Citywide, policing is stretched thin as an increas- ingly large share has to be focused in Her- mosa's bar district to prevent riot, serious injury, death and property damage from the interaction of large crowds of intoxi- cated visitors there. Council members of the last decade continue to be singularly obsessed in hav- ing more restaurant space selling liquor. They refuse to recognize the resident im- pact and simple arithmetic of how the policing and lawsuit costs related to this type of business continues to escalate while city infrastructure and staffing is in decline. The city is receiving just $780 per day total from the city's portion of sales tax from all of the full liquor -selling restaurants citywide, yet still the city ac- cepts and encourages applications for new and existing restaurant/bar businesses that want more square footage and with in- creasingly late liquor -selling hours. Thus removal at election or by recall of those on council with continuing restaurant and liquor expansion voting records may be the only way Hermosa residents take back their cityas this coun- cil and administration is not representing the long-term viability of Hermosa Beach as a residential and daytime beach city.

SOUTH SAY C0AI.IT;I0 rt 'working togethor to prevent' atlbntaeco .nose" PAGE ©1 The purpose of this letter is to express our concern over the possible issuance of a Conditional Use Permit at the Pavilion location on Pacific Coast Highway. Our Coalition is a collaborative of many agencies and individuals in the South Bay who are working to prevent substance abuse among youth in our communities. Our members include: the Beach Cities Health District, Thelma. McMillen Center for Chemical Dependency Treatment at Torrance Memorial Medica]. Center, National Council on Alcohol and Drug Dependence, ROAD (Reach Out Against: Drugs) El Segundo, school districts, parents, and youth. As you consider the C.U.P. application at the Pavilion, we ask you to think about the message being sent to children and youth in the community with so much alcohol availability and the pro - alcohol attitude conveyed as a result. Leading children to believe that alcohol is essential in order to have fun is dangerous and irresponsible. Research shows that youth who start drinking early in life arc 4 times more likely to become alcoholics and underage drinking costs the U.S: more than 550 billion annually. The consequences of alcohol use affect everyone •- even those who drink rarely or not at all. Alcohol use is responsible for increased violence and crime, decreased worker productivity, higher health insurance premiums, and deaths and injuries from drinking -driving crashes. Drinkers alone do not pay these costs — everyone splits the bill. Finally, based on the number of residents who have spoken passionately against. the C.U.P., it would seem that denying this application would be a prudent and responsible action. We are hopeful that you will take all of this information into serious consideration and vote against the C.U.P. application. Thank you. .

FV. DEP I. Re: CUP 06-4 re Sale of Alcohol, Increasing Restaurant Square Footage, and Parking Plan Amendment at the Hermosa Beach Pavilion at 1605 Pacific Coast Highway # 2/ 4 Dear Honorable Members of the Planning Commission: This firm represents Shook Development Corporation ("Shook") and Stillwater, LLC ("Stillwater").. Shook is the owner of the Hermosa Beach Pavilion located at 1605 Pacific Coast Highway in the City of Hermosa Beach (the "Center"). Stillwater owns and operates the existing Green Bar at the Property, and is owned by, among others, Travis Jones and Gene Shook, the applicants for the above -referenced CUP. Shook has reviewed the Staff Report and the proposed Resolution regarding the CUP, and submits the following comments to be considered at this evening's meeting before the Commission. Unilateral Conditions of Approval Make Shook's Investment Unlikely Shook is faced with lending or investing several million dollars in Stillwater to design and build out the space, purchase a first-class wine inventory, hire employees, and open a high-end restaurant. Shook estimates that its investment will likely be $3 million, which it will only make if the City does not impose the currently onerous and vague conditions proposed in the Resolution. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION • SHEPtARD.111L1LLlN RICHTER & HAMPTON LLP July 18, 2006 Page 2 ;114 713 b130 n 3/ 4 As detailed below, several of the Conditions of Approval are onerous, while others are so vague that they allow the City to essentially cease Stillwater's business operations with little showing of any violation. Shook would like to work with the City in crafting a mutually agreeable and beneficial CUP. Absent that, Shook will not go forward with the proposed investment in Stillwater. Condition 5 vaguely states that Stillwater "shall not adversely affect the welfare of the residents, and/or commercial establishments nearby." The Condition does not state that the effect has to be material or significant, nor does it define the term "welfare," and the usage of "nearby" is obviously open to many interpretations. Condition 8 essentially allows the Police Chief to trigger a review upon undefined grounds, with no materiality requirement. The hours and other requirements regarding the wine shop are not consistent with Stillwater's business plan. Condition 19 appears to require Stillwater to require the auto detail business (West Coast Wash & Wax) to cease business or obtain a CUP before Stillwater will be approved. Stillwater does not control West Coast Wash &Wax, and it is unfair to require Stillwater to satisfy such condition. The conditions set forth in this letter (above and below) are merely examples of the unilateral "take it or leave it" approach that the City appears to be making. Shook requests that the parties negotiate a mutually agreeable CUP. Conditions of Approval 15, 16 and 18 Make Shook's Investment Unlikely Conditions of Approval 15, 16 and 18 essentially allow the City to revoke the CUP for a myriad of reasons, some of which are and will be out of Stillwater's control. The City has already made Shook provide two -hours free parking for all patrons of the Center even though the City has admitted that the only patrons at issue are those of 24 Hour Fitness. Now the City wants to condition Stillwater's existence on matters that Stillwater does not control. Stillwater is a tenant. Its CUP should not be conditioned on the entire Center complying with the Parking Plan (as set forth in P.C. Resolution 03-45, as amended by P.C. Resolution 06-16, and sustained by the City Council on July 11, 2006). Stillwater should be treated like any other tenant. It should be subject to the normal restaurant operations restrictions that it can control. Shook recently invested over $10 million in remodeling the Center and parking garage, with a business plan to recoup some of that investment via charged parking — which was disclosed to the City many times over the last several years. The City required Shook to provide ample parking (actually more spaces than necessary), but then changed the rules arguing that charged parking was "not efficient" because 24 Hour Fitness — which repeatedly told its patrons to park off-site — did not want to pay a dollar charge. /-10-VCS; L: 11 IVI;•nCI-YNF/V MVLL II`I Vl: ;714 513 5130 sz 4/ 4 • • SHEPPARD MULLIN l lcwrEll s H:LI1E9'ON LI:P July 18, 2006 Page 3 Now, because the City has repeatedly refused to take any action against 24 Hour Fitness or its patrons, Shook has been ordered to provide two -hours free parking. Shook cannot risk another seven -figure investment in the Center without some type of assurance from the City that Shook will not be blind -sided by the actions of 24 Hour Fitness or its patrons, or the City's reactions thereto. Conditions of Approval 15, 16 and 18 Unfairly Intertwine Stillwater and Shook The proposed Resolution conditions Stillwater's ongoing business upon Shook's compliance with the Parking Plan. Stillwater, the tenant, is owned 55% by Travis Jones, Christine Jones and Yves Chachereau, and 45% by Gene Shook. Shook, the landlord, is owned 100% by Gene Shook. The City already has ruled on the Parking Plan. The City has all the rights, ordinances, and enforcement mechanisms it needs to require Shook (or any subsequent owner) to comply with the Parking Plan. Shook is not aware of the Cityconditioning any other tenant's CUP on a landlord's compliance with a City resolution. Here, the City is unfairly intertwining Stillwater and Shook, even though they are separate legal entities.. While that may appear fair as long as both entities are under common or overlapping ownership, it restricts the value and ability to sell either the restaurant or the Center. Perhaps the City has not considered the fact that Shook may choose one day to sell the Center and keep its investment in Stillwater. Given that the proposed expansion of the restaurant will require Shook to invest several million dollars, Shook's sale of the Property would leave Shook's restaurant investment at risk if the new owner failed to comply with the Parking Plan, or allowed other tenants to violate such plan. Alternatively, perhaps the City has not considered the fact that Stillwater may one day sell the restaurant. If so, the restaurant purchaser would discount its price because its entire investment would be subject on a continual basis to the Center owner's compliance with. the Parking Plan. Again, the City already has all its rights under the Parking Plan. There is no need to now condition a tenant's existence (which, given the language of conditions 15, 16 and 18, is not overstating matters) on the landlord's compliance with that Parking Plan. Thank you for your consideration. W 02-W E ST:NA3140003 83 66. I Sincerely, Michael D.

Euphemistically this 8,000-sq.ft. project is referred to as an "upscale restaurant" this deviates from the actual character of the operation. This is merely another swinging bar with bottle to go services. Proactive action is needed to rezone the entire business district including upper Pier Avenue to prevent the future growth of more alcohol outlets. Mitigate damage by keeping the bars centralized to the downtown, in an effort to save neighborhood and community.

A C T S H E E T Effects of Alcohol Outlet Density on Economic Development East County Community Change Project • February, 2003 Research shows that a high concentration of alcohol outlets in a location can hamper economic development. While such businesses en. ay be heavily patronized, they add little intrinsic value to the community as a whole, and they make the area less attractive to other types of retail business. In order to ensure the future economic growth of the small business communities of the East County region, as well as preserve the quality of life in the region, limits should be placed on the density of retail alcohol outlets. This requires a collaborative effort among retail business operators, property owners, local residents, community service agencies and local governments. ECONOMIC DECLINE The over -concentration of alcohol outlets is often part of a neighborhood's broad economic and social disintegration. An outlet -heavy area's economic base loses its diversity and becomes less attractive to both residents and potential retail customers. The proliferation of alcohol outlets is thus both a symptom of economic decline and a factor that worsens the decline) NEGATIVE NEIGHBORHOOD CLIMATE High bar density changes the character and environment of the neighborhood and the routine activities of those living or visiting that block. Complaints about alcohol outlets that are most often reported to city planners have to do with noise, traffic or loitering.2, 3 VIOLENCE AND CRIME "Wetter” neighborhoods have higher levels of accidents and violence.4 This includes higher crime rates for murder, rape, assault, robbery, burglary, grand theft and auto theft.' A study done in 1995 in Los Angeles showed that each additional alcohol outlet was associated with 3.4 additional assaults per year. Adding one bar to a block would result in 3.38 additional crimes committed on that block in a year.' AUTO CRASHES According to a study done in Los Angeles, there is a greater number of alcohol-related injury crashes in cities with higher outlet densities. A 1% increase in outlet density means a .54% increase in alcohol- related crashes. Thus a city of 50,000 residents with 100 alcohol outlets would experience an additional 2.7 crashes for each new outlet opened.'

(I ti Your views HB bar plan a threat to public safety This letter represents a plea that the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission and City Council exercise what- ever influence they have to deny a permit for a 15,000-. square -foot restaurant/bar at the Hermosa Pavilion. I cur- rently own a business in Hermosa —'after 33 years in law enforcement for Los Angeles County. There was a time when I didn't think any city could have too many bars. What has happened to our little community shows me I was wrong. The proposed monster bar at the Pavilion is not planned to meet the needs of the Hermosa drinkers. If every resident drank, we'd still have plenty of bars. It's an effort to draw drinkers and their wallets from out of the area. Make no mistake, that effort will'be successful. As a former gang investigator, I found that every unsavory ele- ment.imaginable between here and Riverside would find his way to the 91 freeway and drive toward the sun. That would drop them right here, about six blocks north of the proposed mega -bar. This proposal represents a huge public safety issue ripe for a citizen's backlash. Weekend policing/patrols and 911 response times are already seriously compromised by the Pier Plaza bar scene, even when things are going smoothly. Between 1 a.m. and 2:30 a.m., I have to assume the majority of drivers here in Hermosa are drunk and • trying to find their way out of town. This bar is being planned and bankrolled by a truly interesting character, and local officials know it. He has relied on brinkmanship and foot dragging on other issues with the Pavilion, and the notion of a real, viable, res- taurant is laughable. If the restaurant doesn't make him money — which it won't — he'll have a bigger bar. If he has entertainment, he can charge a cover, which is cash and under the radar as to reportable revenue. In terms of planning, let's make some plans for ourldds and their kids. This is not Moreno Valley. The folks who can afford to live here are bright, successful and obviously did something right with their lives, or have a trust fund. Please don't allow our elected officials to turn their backs on these people and pander to the developer and an army of horny twenty -somethings who will descend on our community. They will not be driving down here for dinner. — RICHARD HALLIBURTON Hermosa Beach Torrance in good hands with Scotto. On Tuesday, it was a privilege to see Frank Scotto . sworn in as the new mayor of Torrance. It was standing room only,.arid the City Council Chamber was packed. The residents of Torrance have.shown they will have zero tolerance for dirty politics. - As I walked a precinct for Scotto, I heard time after time again.. that people were so disillusioned with the political process they did not intend to vote. I feel strongly that we get the politicians and government we deserve. Mayor Scotto has shown us that if you. maintain the highest standard of integrity, you can still win.

I am responding to two.letters' appearing back t� back from fellow San Pedrans on Wednesday: Regarding the excessive level of illegal frreworks.once again experienced by residents on the Fourth of July in San Pedro, I extenda per- sonal invitation to John Fer to attend our next Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council meeting on Aug: 14 at Peck • Park and to join our Fireworks Reduction Task Force. Our first-year goal was tosignificantly reduce the amount of illegal fireworks going off in the weeks both before and after the Fourth, and we believe we achieved that goal. By residents getting the word out to their neigh- bors and these neighbors both appreciating and respond- ing to these concerns, the Los Angeles Police Department was then able to focus on those few residents who did not care about their neighbors' concerns.

Jones and Gene Shook, dated April 26, 2006. Granting approval of "on - sale" and/or "off -sale" alcohol permit at this location would substantially depreciate property values in the vicinity and interfere with the use and enjoyment of property and neighborhood. Material concerns are outlined below. 1. Proposed Project: Applicant's plan would allow for the consumption of alcohol anywhere within the 8,000 sq.ft area, and provide for a liquor store convenience for "wine and cheese." The owners plans re- define restaurant space 2 -fold. 2. Space Requested: Space requested is inconsistent with the Precise Development Plan and Parking Plan. Also, the application fails to account for 900 sq.ft of existing restaurant -cafe. Allocated usage of restaurant if approved would total 8,900 sq.ft. 3. Sensitive Location: The placement of an outlet in close proximity to sensitive areas is undesirable. a. Valley View Middle School (public school) is within 600', to the west. b. Immediately adjacent, on the north and west side of the building are residential condominiums. c. A large well established residential neighborhood is located east of the building. 4. Intensification: The economic success of the 8,000 -sq. ft. restaurant/bar will hinge upon attracting a bar crowd of non-residents. This creates a high level of (influx) of commercial traffic for extended time frames, into early morning hours. Noise (loud voices, engine noise, & car doors banging) would spill into residential. 5. Saturation of Alcohol Outlets: Retail alcohol outlets within Census Code 6210.01 and throughout Hermosa Beach exceed saturation levels as defined by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. "Iligh bar density changes the character and environment of the neighborhood and the routine activities of those living or visiting that block."1 6. Commercial Intrusion: Presently, Pavilion patrons canvas our neighborhood (east of PCH) searching for parking. This burdens our streets, displaces residents, and compromises our residential environment. Several incidents have occurred where male Pavilion patrons, have boldly, disrobed (to change into gym clothing) while standing in the street in front of homes where children live and play. The activity is occurring in neighborhoods over 600' away from the Pavilion. This matter is a police issue, requiring patrol. 7. Violence, Crime & Disturbance: Approval of alcohol outlet at this location will make neighborhoods vulnerable to negative impact. Those with criminal intent may be prone to hide in the residential neighborhoods, and disappear quickly because of easy access to Pacific Coast Hwy. This degrades the residential environment, placing residents at risk. 8. Police Resources: Police resources are monopolized by the bar district (lower Pier Avenue area.) The heavy concentration of bars, people, public intoxication, criminal activity, and disturbance conditions, are out of control. The city is unable manage control of merchants who actively encourage problems. Consequently, police services are unavailable to patrol and provide police coverage throughout the community. This disintegration of police services heightens residents' vulnerability to criminal activity. An alcohol outlet at this location will add to the decline. • • 9. Pathway to School: Children everyday walk along 16th Street, because it is a direct route to school. An alcohol outlet at this location (1601 PCH) would influence and discourage a portion of residents from feeling safe to travel this pathway. 10. Wine & Cheese Retail Use: The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control pursuant to B&P Code, Section 23817.5 placed a moratorium on the City of Hermosa Beach, for off -sale beer and wine licenses, Type 20. 11. Impact: The neighborhood sustains constant disruption, due to issues unresolved. If granted, this CUP will compound problems. 12. PCH Frontage: The architectural rendering of 1601 Pacific Coast Hwy depicts an outdoor seating area. This concept is non-functional due to the high level of exhaust emissions. Prohibit the serving of food or consumption of alcoholic beverages along this frontage. 13. Parking Plan: Planning Commission (PC 6-16) pertains to mitigation measures that require adoption. Public meetings have been ongoing since December of 2005, to reduce spillover parking. The Precise Development Plan requires revision. Modifications will incorporate safeguards to avoid negative impact to the surrounding neighborhood, as follows: a. No "on -sale" or "off -sale" alcohol licensee to be granted at 1601 Pacific Coast Hwy, "Pavilion." b. Restaurant/Retail space (high intensity) to be redefined as 8,000 sq.ft of office space. The existing cafe which is located on the ground floor, would remain. c. Pavilion tenants to be required to close business operations by 8:00 p.m, 7 days a week. This condition would exclude 24 -Hour Fitness. d. No amplified music, live entertainment, or dance floors. e. No amplified music on exterior of building or in premises. f. All parking to be free, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, for both employees and patrons. g. Tandem parking to be eliminated, this undesirable parking solution discourages parking within structure. h. No loitering in and around premises, including parking structure. Conclusion: This upcoming hearing presents an opportunity to modify the Precise Development Plan. A heavy burden is borne by residents because the city is unable to control liquor licensees. The spreading of more bars throughout the community defies logic. Aggressive policy change, is the only alternative to save our community from the proliferation of adverse impact. The cumulative effect of alcohol outlets has created conditions damaging to the safety, comfort, character of our environment, and walkability of our streets. The city is entrusted to act on behalf of the community not an individual proprietor. To grant approval of this alcohol outlet at 1601 Pacific Coast Hwy, would promote the disintegration of public safety and turmoil for neighborhood. Please place this communication on the agenda for the upcoming Planning Commission hearing, scheduled, June 20, 2006.

DEV. DEP r. RE: CONSIDERATION OF A RESTAURANT/LIQUOR ESTABLISHMENT IN THE HERMOSA PAVILLION The approval of this establishment is a continued "green light" for business to infringe on the local community and neighborhood. The assault since the opening of the Pavillion has only increased while nothing has been done to alleviate the existing problems. We, and all of our neighbors feel that Iong list of negatives should be dealt with prior to any other consideration or approval that will definitely add to that list. Not only is our police force presently over extended, and emergency call times increasingly delayed, this approval is only inviting trouble for our community welfare. We feel that until these issues are addressed and solved, it would be very detrimental to the future of our wonderful community. Please consider the residents and the family environment we are working so hard the nurture and protect. This is our future and unless we get control of it and start making decisions that benefit our community and it residents, it won't be long before we forget the magic Hermosa Beach has had and it is lost to Big Business. We already feel our neighborhoods are becoming increasing overrun with transient elements, but now adding liquor to the mix will make our quality of life extremely vulnerable and full of unnecessary stress and continued assault on our once peaceful neighborhoods. 24 Hour Fitness has already overstepped their boundaries making us on alert 24 hour a day, now with the potential of yet another after hours BAR/CLUB in our community, we are feeling like we are always in protective and defensive mode. As members and parents of our community, who have taken on the responsibility of directing the future design of our city, you above all should relate to the concerns of your fellow citizens and make Hermosa Beach a place we are all proud to raise our families. It seems the priorities are catering to the party scene, which includes mostly non residents, instead of the true heart and soul of the community, the residents! Please make us proud of being members of this community once again. We love our schools, our home and our lives in Hermosa Beach but lately it seems like the qualities we once enjoyed and paid for have slipped away to benefit the business and entertainment elements. Please give us back our pride and sense of community. Sincerely, Alan, Kammi, Sage and Stella *Please include this comillation in council's agenda packet for July 11, . City of Hermosa Beach City Council Members 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 RE: P.C. RESOLUTION 06-16, AMENDMENT TO PARKING PLAN; ?�... PAVILION, 1601 Pacific Coast Hwy, H.B. Dear Mr. Mayor and Members of Council: The operational parking plan for business located at 1601 Pacific Coast Hwy, represents a progressive problem for residents in the surrounding area. P.C. Resolution 06-16 provides an opportunity to create an instrument to reduce impact. The resolution requires supplemental changes as identified below. Supplemental Terms to: P.C. Resolution 06-16 a) All employees (full & part time) to receive free parking. b) Patron parking to be free 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. c) The entire parking supply -to be "self -park" no tandem parking or parallel parking spaces allowed. When the building is full, a sign would be posted "Garage Full." d) Parking structure NOT to be utilized as "special event" parking. e) Security: "Active" security personnel to monitor the parking structure, stairwells, and building perimeter 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Security personnel to be easily identifiable by the public, i.e., security would be uniformed. The security company to be responsible for furnishing HBPD with disturbance reports on regular intervals. f) Red Zones: NO vehicle shall stop, stand, or park for any purpose along the dedicated red zones directly in front of the Pavilion, or along 16th Street, this includes vehicles "for hire." The dedicated right -turn lane along PCH, must be maintained clear, to avoid traffic congestion, and hazardous conditions. g) TAXIS: Service vehicles are NOT to lurk or park in neighborhoods or take up public parking spaces. Service vehicles are to be contained within the commercial building. h) Entry to the proposed "restaurant -bar" to be accessible exclusively via the interior lobby of the main building, not at a side entry located on PCH. This avoids problems with persons congregating outside and causing distraction for motorists. i) Tandem parking is not feasible or desirable for employees. Employees would be required to deposit keys with a parking attendant. This creates undesirable conditions by design. j) Land Use: NO "adult entertainment" allowed. The Pavilion's "high impact tenant" opened in August of 2005 creating an influx of commercial traffic and patron parking in residential neighborhood. The gym -tenant occupies about 46,049 square feet (50%) of the building. The surrounding neighborhood and businesses were immediately impacted. Residents are deprived valuable parking, and safety concerns have manifested. Impact is NOT limited to 16th Street. Other interior streets, connecting with 16th Street, i.e., (15th Place, Mira Ave., Raymond Ave., and Bonnie Brae Ave.) all suffer from the same commercial intrusion. The developer has NOT implemented a single mitigation measure during this 10 -month period. The city's intervention is required, to deter disruption for residents. 1 of 2 gas • • Municipal Zoning Code 17.44.050, Unlawful to reduce available parking. Code specifically prohibits the "reducing, diminishing or eliminating existing required off-street parking." Shook's operational -management policy/plan of the garage structure creates a deterrent preventing the effective usage of the structure. Contrary to representations and assertions made by Gene Shook, the Pavilion's policy is inconsistent and NOT the norm for businesses in the surrounding area. NO other commercial -business location within Hermosa Beach or Manhattan Beach charge customers a "fee" to park. Claims that mitigation measures recommended by the commission "... unfairly deprives me of my investment expectations..." (Shook's letter, April 25, 2006) assumes the development project is entitled to adversely impact the surrounding neighborhoods. The analysis prepared Linscott, Law & Greenspan's engineers is insufficient. Parking demands require recalculation. Parking for this 100,000-sq.ft building to be identified as 100% self -park.. This is the standard, preference, and expectation of our community. The freedom and convenience to self -park can not be undermined. Imposing attendant assist parking on both patrons and employees manipulates the quantity of vehiclesthat can park within the building. The feasibility for "attendant assistance parking" is dubious, at best. Tandem parking imposed upon employees is unrealistic, one can anticipate vehicles to avoid this method of parking. It is my understanding, this indirectly violates the owner's responsibility to contain parking in accordance with code. Linscott,. Law & Greenspan's engineers previously submitted plans on behalf of their client that strategically aim to convert a residential artery to service commercial traffic. Once again, their analysis prepared in February 2006 (LLG Parking Report, Reference 1-06-3625) aggressively advocates Mr. Shook's interests. Conclusions made by the firm undermine residents, and offer no understanding or concept of solutions, acceptable to the residential community. Additionally, the report fails to represent all of the building's business uses (conforming and nonconforming.) The city needs to investigate, review, and assess all noncompliance issues prior to rendering a decision. The proprietor has missed every opportunity to voluntarily implement mitigation measures. ENeryday strangers from the Pavilion case and intrude upon our residential living environment. This destructive intrusion presents dramatic change to the character of our neighborhood. In effort to preserve and protect neighborhood, the supplemental terms defined herein require adoption into P _C. Resolution 06-16. Thank you for your attention to this detail.

On October 3, 2006 at 6:OOpm, as I drove westbound on 16th Street between PCH and Ardmore. More than 6 vehicles in the traffic lane (closest to the curb) were unable to advance forward to enter the Pavilion due to delays with the mechanical gate. This creates unsafe conditions for everyone plus congestion. The parking plan inadequately services the building. Complications such as delayed access discourage use and encourage spillover traffic into residential neighborhoods. Recommendation: 1. Do NOT intensify this commercial building with more high -impact usage. 2. Require the mechanical gate to remain in the "up" position to allow full access to the parking structure. 3. Allow 100% standard self -parking. Unresolved issues and the intensification of this building undermines residents and creates nuisance conditions.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council PIER AVENUE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council: October 2, 2006 /'1/,i Regular Meeting of October 10, 2006 1. Form a design oversight committee comprised of two members of the Public Works Commission, the Planning Commission and City Council, 2. Review public comment regarding the trial striping layout on Pier Avenue between Hermosa Avenue and Pacific Coast Highway; 3. Direct staff to either terminate the test striping and return to four lanes of traffic or to leave the two lane option in place; and 4. If the direction is to return to four lanes, authorize staff to issue a change order to PCI, Inc. in an amount not -to -exceed $20,000 to remove existing pavement markings and provide new striping. Background: The Public Works Commission, at its meeting of September 20, 2006, held a public meeting to receive public comment and make a recommendation to Council regarding the test striping of Pier Avenue (Attachment 5). The test striping project has been in place throughout the summer. Traffic counts were presented which were taken in February, 2006, in June, 2006, and finally in September, 2006 (Attachment 1). On September 18th, while the traffic counters were in place, a time-lapse video was recorded of traffic on Pier Avenue. The camera was mounted on the Fire Tower and observed Pier Avenue from Bard Avenue looking west to Monterey Boulevard. The video was shown to the Commission. On that date the traffic counter recorded an Average Daily Traffic (ADT) amount of 15;110 vehicles. This is the highest ADT ever measured for Pier Avenue, which was measured at 14,769 in 2005 and at 10,500 in 1998. During this same time period no significant traffic congestion was observed in the time-lapse. video. Only three occurrences of traffic back-up were observed, each for east bound traffic at the Bard stop sign. In each instance the back-up was due to a fire truck halting traffic while backing into the fire station. Based upon observations throughout the test period and traffic data, the City's traffic engineering consultant found the two-lane option to be acceptable for the existing traffic volume. They also determined that there was significant capacity for future growth. Additionally, the very high total traffic count measured seems to allay concerns that there was significant diversion of traffic to the parallel side streets. Traffic counts were also taken on 8th Street, which did show a significant increase in volume near Hermosa Avenue, but actually went down between Ardmore Avenue and PCH. Staff observations are that reducing the number of travel lanes has slowed travel speeds on Pier Avenue and believes the crosswalks and diagonal parking have been made safer by the slowed speeds, shortened crosswalk lengths, and widened parking aisle. Police and Fire were asked to comment on the temporary striping (Attachments 2 and 3). The concern expressed by Fire was that trucks parking and off-loading in the median, which serves as an emergency lane during peak traffic hours, was causing delays in emergency response. Police reported that back-ups have caused them to use alternate routes but do not feel that response times have been increased. Both departments were strongly in favor of keeping the stop sign at Bard Street, which has greatly improved access to Pier Avenue. 6b • • The traffic accident history from January 1, 2003 through March 31, 2006 shows a total of sixteen accidents, three of which involved pedestrians struck by vehicles in a crosswalk (two of these pedestrians were skateboarding and determined to be at fault. From April 1, 2006 to present there have been five accidents, four of which occurred east of Valley and one minor fender bender at Palm Drive. Many communications, both written and verbal, have been received on both sides of the issue (Attachment 4) but the strong majority of communications received have been opposed to the change. After listening to the staff report and receiving public testimony, the Public Works Commission voted 5-0 in favor of discontinuing the striping test and returning the lane striping to four lanes as existed before, with the exception that they voted in favor of keeping the stop sign at Bard Street. They also voted 4-1 in support the formation of the design oversight committee. This CIP Project No. 04-116 Pier Avenue Street Improvement Project was approved by City Council for design to begin this fiscal year. Prior to beginning design of these improvements, the trial striping project was done to test reducing the number of travel lanes from four lanes to two lanes, as recommended in the Downtown Implementation Plan, approved by Council in 1994. The goal of this plan was to implement traffic calming measures to improve pedestrian safety and to provide amenities creating a comfortable shopping environment for the community and visitors. Whether the new street improvement includes the two lanes or four lanes, this project proposes to install street trees, street furniture, old fashioned street lights plus other improvements which will enhance the aesthetics of this downtown corridor. It is recommended that the City Council form a design oversight committee comprised of two members of the Public Works Commission, the Planning Commission, and the City Council, to provide design oversight for this "Legacy" project. The Planning and Public Works Commissions have already identified the subcommittee members who would participate in the ad hoc committee. Council may also wish to consider adding two representatives of local architects to also participate on this committee. For design to begin, it is requested that Council select one of the following options. Options: 1. Direct staff to restore stripingto four -lanes and authorize staff to enter into a change order with PCI, Inc. to remove existing markings and re -stripe at a not -to -exceed cost of $20,000, and direct staff to begin the design of street improvements with four -lane configuration; or 2. Approve the two-lane option and direct staff to begin the design of street improvements with the two-lane configuration; or 3. Request further study by staff and refer the issue of two lanes vs. four lanes to the newly formed ad hoc committee. Fiscal Impact: If option 1, above, is selected, then a not -to -exceed amount of $20,000 from CIP 04-116 (146-8116-4201) will be expended to re -stripe traffic lanes. Attachments: 1.

Savelli [gsavelli@hermosapolice.org] Sent: Tuesday, October 03, 2006 5:03 PM To: Rick Morgan Subject: Pier Ave. Rick, As you know, I was not here when Pier Ave. was four lanes so I can not comment. I did question officers and supervisors about their thoughts on the striping. They have indicated that the time it takes to travel Pier Ave has been increased by reducing to two lanes. They report some back-ups in peak times during events or week -end evenings when people are arriving downtown and during school crossing times. (Back-ups were reported from Valley to Loma during school times) Some officers have chosen to use alternate routes to avoid the delays on Pier Ave.(some even mentioned using 8th st) however our response times have not increased. Based on their own need to use Pier Ave. (constantly) versus the average daily traveler they would prefer it be four lanes. Again this is just based on preference due to their high use of the street. All officers and supervisors supported the stop sign and after a "warning period" began issuing citations to gain compliance and this has helped PD and FD enter and exit the departments. Thanks for the opportunity to comment. Greg ATTACHMENT 2 10/4/2006 From: Russell Tingley Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 3:42 PM To: Rick Morgan Subject: FD Comments re PierAve Stripping Rick; On 09/13/06 the following comments were made by staff re the Pier Ave. stripping: Center lane median is not always accessible due to delivery vehicles parked to load/off-load. West bound "left -turners" at Monterey often are backed -up and block center lane during peak traffic periods. Several times this has occurred resulting in response delays of 15-20 seconds per Captain Crawford. West bound stop sign at Bard in front of fire station — stopped driver cannot easily see west bound departing fire engine leaving fire station.

I trust this is only temporary due to the fact the build out plan calls for having the center turning lane only 10 ft. wide. In any case the turn is sharp due to the angle of the intersecting streets and hopefully the permanent turn will take this into account. I hope the experiment works: and improves Pier Ave. Good luck, Don Karas.evicz done.southcalhomes (310)376-7621 direct • Rick Morgan Page 1of1 From: Rashel Mereness [rashelm@yahoo.com] Sent: Friday, June 09, 2006 6:10 PM To: Rick Morgan Cc: Randy LaFaye; Sam Edgerton; jbrhbcc@aol.com; michaelkeegan@rrmanhattanbread.com; peter@electpetertucker.com Subject: Pier Avenue Renovation It was very thoughtful. of your office to send out the information regarding the plan for upper Pier Avenue. I have two questions/comments that I hope you can address: (1) I live on Cypress Avenue south of Pier Avenue. This street is badly in need of repair. Itis completely cracked and pot -holed and driving on it feels like driving on a 4WD road. From what I understand neighbors have made several requests for repairs over the years, so it's a bit frustrating to see so much effort and money put into upgrading Pier Ave before our street receives necessary repairs. Are any funds earmarked to repair Cypress Avenue? (2) I think the idea of increasing sidewalk space on Pier only makes sense if you allow the restaurants on upper Pier to increase their outdoor seating. The poor little crepes place has to stick tables wherever they can up and down the street because of the high demand to sit out there. I know as a resident of the upper Pier area, I would appreciate being able to enjoy patio dining at a larger variety of restaurants than just those that are on the Pier Plaza. Are you considering allowing the restaurants to expand with outdoor seating? I don't otherwise see much value in just making larger sidewalks. There is not that much foot traffic on the current sidewalks. Please let me know if you have any responses to the above at your earliest convenience.

He had just dropped his kids off at Valley School and stated the situation made the kids late for school. On Wednesday evening I made a trip to Vons and must say I agree with my neighbor (it's a mess). I will make an effort to go down to the corner of Pier and Valley over the week -end (I'll be on a bicycle) to check it out. I invite you to do the same. Okay so these are my thoughts. Can the city afford to spend money for this and what is the return? Who are we accommodating? I have lived in HB for over 35 years and do not recall a drainage issue on Pier Ave. Do we really want more restaurants and bars in HB? Will we need more Police to control the patrons? Can the Fire trucks enter and exit the Fire station on busy week -ends with only two lanes? Why do we need to make a change?

The stop sign is terribly ineffective for the volume of cars and the striping will only add to the flow problems at that intersection..Manhattan has a signal to correct this problem so should we. The test is doomed to fail unless that factor is.considered. Also the forced turn at a stop sign is only going to cause backups. removing the stop sign will have a dramatic increase in flow.

I saw the changes this week when I tried to get downtown. It was horrible. The cars were backed up from upper Pier Ave near Vons. And that was during the daytime. I imagine nighttimes and weekends will be worse with people going to restaurants, to the beaches, shopping, or just trying to get home. I was headed to The Bike Shop but gave up when I saw the difficulty of getting there.. I decided not to try the beauty supply store by the Post Office and went to another one near Vons. I think it is a poor decision to try to imitate the 1 -lane that Manhattan beach has. They have a bottle neck on upper Man Bch Blvd each day above Ardmore and to Pacific.

The re -lining of the street makes it very difficult to drive through the city. This was especially true this past weekend with all the traffic that was in town for the AVP tournament. To re -line the street to reduce the. number of lanes from two to one makes it impossible for traffic from Valley and Ardmore to turn onto Pier going south. It also makes it incredibly difficult for those parking at businesses along Pier to back out onto the Pier and leave. attempted to go to the dry cleaners on Saturday (Karen's Cleaners) and found it almost impossible to get to the store and equally difficult to get someone to let me out so I could get out of the center of town. If.you are trying to drive residents away from using the businesses in downtown Hermosa you are doing a good job, .I try to patronize local.' stores but if you are going to charge for parking and then make it impossible to get out.of those spaces, I think that I will have to take my business to stores that have easier parking. I strongly urge the city to change the street markings back to what they were at the beginning of the year.

I have two questions/comments that I hope you can address: (1) l live on Cypress Avenue south of Pier Avenue. This street is badly in need of repair. Itis completely crackedand pot -holed and driving on it feels like driving on a 4WD road. From what I understand neighbors have made several requests for repairs over the years, so it's a bit frustrating to see so much effort and money put into upgrading Pier Ave before our street receivesnecessary repairs. Are any funds earmarked to repair Cypress Avenue? (2) I think the idea of increasing sidewalk space on Pier only makes sense if you allow the restaurants on upper Pier to increase their outdoor seating. The poor little crepes place has to stick tables wherever theycanup and down the street because of the high demand to sit out there. I know as a resident of the upper Pier area, I would appreciate being able to enjoy patio dining at a larger variety of restaurants than just those that are on the Pier Plaza. Are you considering allowing the restaurants to expand with outdoor seating? I don't otherwise see much value in just making larger sidewalks. There is not that much foot traffic on the current -sidewalks. Please let me know if you have any responses to the above at your earliest convenience.

The Hermosa Beach Art Walk held its second event on Thursday, June 8. During that afternoon: and evening, I had an opportunity to' observe the new stripping on upper Pier Avenue. Traffic was a bit slower but the drivers seemed to have adjusted to the new lanes fairly well. Traffic was slower, which I think is great. • The additional stop sign is long overdue. Whenever I have tried to cross Pier Ave, the drivers not only don't stop but they.generally curse at you and"flip you off ifyou'dare try to cross the street. The stop sign at Bard surely helps the cities fire and. police get through .that intersection. I :had thought the stop sign would be at Cypress• because that is in the middle of the block but any new stop sign is great. I am sure you will get negative responses but traffic in the city has to slow down. Good luck with your project. Take care.

I like the plan and hope that an agreeable solution is reached. My only comment: relates to bike traffic. When devising a plan, please try to incorporate somethingthat keeps -bikers in mind. Biking in the only traffic lane and: watching for parked cars backing up is a lithe worrisome. Although I'm not familiar with the final vision, it seems to me that because the middle lane will be the least frequently used I say make it the "tightest" and allocate most of the available width to peds on the sidewalk, parking and bikes/cars in the traffic lanes.

Two quick comments and one immedate concern regarding the Pier Avenue striping project. 1.) Does the plan for the FY 06-07 project include any accomodation for bicycles? Will there be a bike lane, shared use arrows, or any sort of additional buffer between the edge of the diagonal parking area and the 12 -foot travel lane? This is particularly important given the high level of bicycle traffic on Pier and the visibility issues associated with diagonal parking, namely that driver about to back out of a space can not easily see an upcoming cyclist, nor can a cyclist easily see whether there is someone in the driver seat of the car. Riding at the right edge of a travel lane against diagonal parked cars is perhaps more dangerous than riding in the 'door zone,' which cyclists and transportaion engineers all agree is a bad thing. 2.) I've noticed a marked increase in the amount of traffic going through the residential areas to get from lower Pier to PCH and beyond (I live on Monterey). In particular I've seen an increase in the number of taxi cabs making shortcuts through residential neighborhoods (more often then not rolling through stop signs and speeding). Does the plan address how to keep Pier -to -PCH traffic flowing through the commercial corridor (Pier) and off of our residential streets? Is there anything that can be done in the short term (during this study period) to get the taxi off of the residential streets and onto Pier? Finally, an immediate concern as a result of the test. This touches on the point I brought up with my first question. As mentioned earlier riding a bicycle too close to a row of diagonally parked cars is unsafe. This week I've seen many bicycles riding to the right of the white line that separates the travel lane from the diagonal parking area. Can this line by moved away from the curb (to create a buffer between the parked cars and the travel lane), or be removed altogether, and the 20 -foot wide central turning median reduced? I consider the current configuartion highly unsafe and an immediate hazard. I am very concerned that a bicyclist will soon be struck by a motorist backing out of a diagonal parking spot. Before the lane reduction, bicyclists could easily 'take' a good part of the right hand lane (which is their right, given the hazards presented by diagonal parked cars) and cars could still move freely in the left lane. Now, due to this restriping test and the unfortunate placement of the white line at the edge of the diagonal parking area bicyclists must either 'block' a car in the single travel lane or ride in the blind spot for drivers backing out of their diagonal parking spot. It's my hope that the City will recognize this danger and take immediate steps to correct the hazard.

Many commuters use this corridor in and out of Hermosa and they are backing up all the way to PCH. It also impacts the access to the Vons center (which is already a busy area). I think this a a major traffic hazard and cannot be what you intended. Another aspect of this change is the already congested intersections of Valley/Ardmore. Is it really wise to add yet another four way stop 100 feet from two four way stops? This is three four way stops in less than 300 feet! However, I am not one of those commuters; I'm a cranky resident! Should I need to go down to that area of Hermosa in the future I will use 8th Street or 24th Street to avoid the traffic.

I think it is a huge mistake making Pier Avenue only one lane. It would be nice to have wider sidewalks and more outdoor dining on Upper Pier, but funneling the already Oongestei -traffic coming down from PCH into one lane is a huge mistake. The traffic in recent years has become increasingly congested in this city. There are more cars on the roads and,'increasingly, more stop signs and traffic lights have added which congests traffic even more.. For example, the intersection of Herondo and PCH is totally screwed up now and weekend traffic on PCH in Hermosa seems to move at about 5 MPH. Crossing PCH has become a serious hassle as more and more cars line up at the few streets that do cross. It often takes two or more turns at the light to enter PCH from.'8th Street. Additionally, only a few select streets -cross the Greenbelt. Congesting Pier Avenue by reducing the traffic flow only drives more traffic through to those other streets, such a 8th,.16th and 21st and further slows PCH traffic by backing it up on either side of Pier Avenue.

After two weeks of dealing with Pier Ave. at many different hours of the day, I am convinced this is the most poorly conceived public works project in Hermosa Beach in many years. One of many differences between Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach is the relative ease of getting around town in Hermosa.. Contrast the four lanes of Hermosa Ave. extending from Herondo to 35th Street with the congested two lanes of Highland: Manhattan Beach Blvd. from Manhattan Ave to Valley can be gridlock. Now we reduce the expansive width of Pier Avenue to two lanes in a manner that no sense whatsoever. The westbound lane reduction and stop sign at Bard defies logic. Traffic turns right into the trailer park and the already crowded conditions around the post office are worsened. I have seen westbound traffic stopped from east of Vons to Bard. If you are unfortunate enough to have parked in the eastbound lane, good luck in backing out into the one lane of traffic. If this was done to allow merchants on Pier Ave. to expand and have al fresco dining space, why don't we afford the same opportunity to the merchants of Hermosa Ave. We could enjoy outdoor dining from Mickey's to The North End. I can just imagine the outdoor experience we could enjoy at The Green Store's expanded outdoor facilities. Hopefully, common sense will prevail and this abomination will disappear as quickly as it appeared.

Importance: High Dear Mr. Morgan, I thank you in advance for giving me the opportunity to voice my opinion about the current lane test. Needless to say I am very frustrated and concerned. I am proud to say that I have been a resident of Hermosa Beach for close. to 10 years. I have enjoyed that fact that I can walk or easily drive anywhere within a couple mile radius. As we all know Hermosa Beach is the center of many year round activities and host to numerous large scale events which generate more then our share of traffic. Due to this fact I am even more confused why a one lane street would even be considered. On a normal day anytime after 2:00pm traffic becomes congested from daily commutes and after school traffic. Yesterday I counted 15 cars in line at the fire station stop sign. Pretty scary considering summer has only just begun. There has'also been backups on PCH all the way to Artesia.at rush hour. There is also absolutely no need for a dedicated left hand and right hand turn lane. This has only caused confusion and more traffic jams with people trying to merge into one lane. It baffles me as to what was to be acheived by this. It has only seemed to cause frustration to both Hermosa Beach residents and tourists. PLEASE BRING BACK OUR MISSING LANE!!!

As a homeowner (and I feel that residents should decide on this issue) I feel that it will only create a better downtown because it will attract more high-end businesses and lure dinner traffic (if the sidewalks are widened as proposed). Also, 2 lanes will be much safer for pedestrians then the previous 4 lanes. The problem with the current configuration is that the 3 stop signs are so close together that they do indeed clog traffic. We need to combine Valley/Ardmore at a single stop light, mostly for safety reasons because there are so many kids crossing that street all day, but also to rid ourselves of those two stop signs right next to each other. This will alleviate traffic and be much safer. The solution could be to reserve the space between the stop signs for pedestrians; consider it an extra large crosswalk. Please remember that there are many other supporters who don't take the time to let you know! However please consider addressing the stop sign issue before the trial period ends. Thank you!

First.ofI let me say that I've owned a home in Hermosa for 10 years at 1443 Manhattan Avenue. That': a block and a half north of'Pier so I am going to be impacted by whatever happens good or bad. I believe in:change for improvement but not change just for.the sake of change. I moved here shortly before the renovation of lower Pier began and in retrospect that was clearly change for improvement. People should be motivated to visit upper Pier and use it as the main east/west artery, not to avoid it. Adding another stop sign to go with the two we already have within.50 yards makes no practical sense. Taking a lane away just after that atop: sign is a great way to back.traf:fic up,and create gridlock on the north/south:traff=ic on Valley and Ardmore. Making a right turn only lane into a mobile:home park, was not very well thought out. The left turn from Monterey southbound onto Pier eastbound is dangerous with cars backing out parking .dspaces into the only lane available.

The point of the story is, I live in Hermosa I love Hermosa, and do everything I can to stay here, and spend my.money in Hermosa to support the city as much as possible. It is such a destination point for many that they do not think about the pedestrians and accidents happen. The widening of the sidewalks is a very brilliant' idea and I think that it will make for. much safer travel as a pedestrian. Thanks for your time.

I'm not sure what is to be gained by turning Pier Avenue into one lane. All it has accomplished is traffic to be backed up. Turning left off of Pier Avenue, has never been a problem. You at least still had the option of changing lanes to go around someone if they were turning left. I don't understand why there would be a "strong merchant/business interest in this project". Parking does not increase, just congestion. Everyone I have spoken to that have experienced the new change, now choose to avoid Pier Avenue at all costs, because of the traffic. That is decreasing the amount of people wanting to shop on Pier Avenue because it has become too congested. Also, that now increases the traffic on 2nd Street and 8th Street or any street for that matter, that goes through to PCH. Valley and Ardmore will be used more, and backed up more to avoid Pier Avenue. Not to mention everyone now cutting down the side streets to avoid Pier Avenue. I can only imagine how it will be when school is back in session. It was bad enough with two lanes, let alone one. Bad idea. One other thing, I was watching the City Council meeting last night, and if I got paid for every time the City Council members and others, said "um", I would be a very rich woman. I would like to think that they would want to project a more professional image since they are running a city. Also the City Attorney, and the grey haired gentleman on his right, should really get some more sleep.

For the most part, we are very supportive of the changes recommended by the Council for Hermosa Beach, but we fail to see how our city benefits from the recent change down to one lane aside from traffic congestion and confusion on the part of motorist. We have spoken to some of the owners of local businesses on Pier Avenue and found that they shareour opinion as well and have the added concern that long range plans will hinder their business. We have seen Hermosa Beach grow from a 'T-shirt town" to a thriving community and are proud of our small businesses which we support. Please support this decision at your next meeting.

I ride my bike up and down Pier Ave. almost daily. The following comments are based upon my observations: 1. Full size vehicles, e.g.'Crown Victoria, long wheel base pick ups, etc., slant parked along Pier nearly protrude into the traffic lanes. This makes it lesssafe for bicyclist than it was when there were 4 lanes. 2. Cars passing bicyclist used to have another lane to drive in when there were 4 lanes. Now they closely brush past cyclists — more dangerous. 3. Center turn laneis unusually wide and appears to be rarely used by cars turning left 135 degrees into an opposite side parking spot, into parking lots, or on to side streets. This seems to be a waste of expensive road way. 4. A vehicle stopping to wait for someone to back out of a slant spot on the right hand side of the street stops all traffic in that lane and backs up traffic. When there were 4 lanes, cars simply pulled around the stopped vehicle and traffic continued to move. unabated. I vote for going back to four lanes for increased safety and better traffic flow.

I say encouraging because I think this test should be ended as soon as possible. I understand that the idea of moving down from two lanes to one, and adding yet another four way stop, was to see if the sidewalks could be expanded on upper Pier to make the area for the merchants and their customers more like Pier plaza ( I am one of those regular customers, and it seems like a nice idea). However I am afraid the increase in congestion simply can't justify such change. Since the one lane and extra stop have been put in place I have frequently found upper Pier to be backed up in ways that I have not seen in the five years I have lived in Hermosa. At times it can be quite bad, almost reaching back to PCH. This is particularly frustrating as one knows that only a few weeks ago there wasn't a problem. It has to be the case that more traffic is now using 8th street - I know I have more than before - and that can't be wise,as that street really isn't suitable for too much traffic. Beyond the inconvenience of a few more minutes waiting, which no doubt some might be want to dismiss as no big deal, is the feeling this gives. one, and the effect it has on the impression of the town and living here. Having spent an hour in traffic getting home fron work, or back from somewhere, turning right on Pier has that rather lovely feeling of "being home" back in the nice, popular, but small down-to-earth beach town. Hermosa is not Manhattan thankfully, nor heaven forbid like a Newport. But now, that whole back-up as you head west on Pier just makes it feel like another congested over- crowded, badly planned urban area. Almost an extension of PCH. This point may seem rather prosaic perhaps, but for me, a happy resident of Hermosa, it's important. I will tell you that when I first experienced the mess of the new traffic system, I had that rather anti -council feeling reaction. "Who do these people think they are?" "How could they be so stupid?" But in reading you) response to the easy Reader, and recognizing that we have to try out some things, I felt reassured. Change is often hard to pull off, and mistakes can be made with good intentions. The critical thing is to accept them, address them, and keep moving forward. To that end, please drop this idea, accept it was a mistake, and move on. I sensed from your response that you acknowledged that was what needed to happen. But it is now several weeks later. What is the status? Are you reconsidering keeping this poor redesign? I would welcome the chance to know where we are with this, and if it is still under consideration, what is being done to solicit feedback from residents? How can I give my opposition more formally? I do hope we can put this behind the town, and get back to the more effective road system. Thanks in advance for your attention. I would welcome a response when you get a moment.

Especially during the summer months when there is more traffic coming to Hermosa. Although'I try to avoid driving on Pier Ave anyway, the new lanes make it really backed up on weekends. Another problem I have noticed b/c of this is there is more traffic on my street Loma Dr and' on 8th Ave. People have been speeding down our street and 8th Ave., I think b/c they are trying to avoid the mess that is currently on Pier. This is normally a quiet couple blocks, on Loma, but recently there are way too many motorists,obviously not residents that live on these blocks. There a lot of kids that play in our street and this could become unsafe for them as well. Please reconsider this lane re -structuring as I believe it has more negatives than positives.

As a resident who lives Pier Avenue adjacent, I find this project to be traffic congesting and dangerous for both parked cars backing out into the now one lane of traffic and for pedestrians crossing alleys and intersections. Everyday I see cars veering intothe turn lane to avoid cars backing out and cars passing in the turn lane. In addition, having 2 lanes of traffic merge into one in the short break Valley to Bard does nothing but back all flow of traffic from Ardmore.

Pier Avenue to a four lane roadway. As a Hermosa Beach resident living on a connector road to. Pier Avenue I find the daily traffic resulting from the restriping to be miserable. The traffic has made it difficult to enter Pier Avenue from my street(Cypress Avenue) and impedes the use of Pier Avenue as a common vehicle route for my daily activities. The traffic on Pier Avenue appears to have slowed the transition through the Valley/Ardmore intersection, causing additional traffic on Valley/Ardmore. Additionally, the increased traffic on Pier Avenue appears to encouragevehicles to deviate from Pier Avenue to the adjacent neighborhood streets, including mine, as they make their way through Hermosa Beach. I support the Council's efforts to improve our city, but not every idea is a good one. The Pier Avenue restriping has provided no improvement for me as a Hermosa Beach resident, but rather degraded a bit of the Hermosa Beach quality of life.

I have lived in Hermosa Beach for 18 years (just off of Pier Avenue on Cypress Avenue) and there is no doubt in my mind that the Pier Avenue Pilot Striping Test has made traffic and congestion worse, not better. For example, when I am returning home from work it now takes me far longer to travel the last several blocks to get to my home. I have tried alternate routes and found this is true in any case. Also, a previously simple trip to Vons is now a major ordeal. Conceptually I am in favor of improvements to upper Pier Avenue. The wider parking spots have definitely been a long overdo safety improvement. However, there continues to be a blind spot for drivers looking west at the intersection of Cypress at Pier Avenue. But the biggest problem right now is that the Test Striping has caused horrendous traffic problems. This should be a huge yellow flag that this configuration is NOT the solution to the ultimate Pier Avenue reconstruction. Despite what traffic engineering standards may imply, the reality is that traffic volumes. on Pier Avenue are in fact NOT adequately accommodated with the single traffic lanes!

Pier Avenue is completely congested, and chaotic. Please put it back the way it was! What was unsafe about the four lanes? As I stated in a previous email; what.IS unsafe is the greater amount of traffic on other streets now, to compensate for the overflow from Pier. One ofthese happens tube my street, 8th. The stop sign' hes helped with the speeding, but there is so much traffic, and LITTLE sidewalk space, that it makes it very dangerous for those of us who want to walk around our neighborhood, i.e. to the beach, pier, shops, etc. There are a lot of families on our street, who have to dodge traffic; and,keep switching from..one side of the street to another, dueto the fact that niost of the sidewalks'on the street: are.take_ n up by parked.care This, to me, is a much.greater safetyconcern than four lanes on Pier Avenue.

I can't even, in my wildest dreams, comprehend what you all were thinking. I also am rather insulted and offended that our tax dollars have gone to such a debacle. At a time when all of L.A., including our own little city, is becoming over crowded, should we not be coming up with appropriate ideas to maximize traffic flow and parking? To turn the most popular major artery into and out of Hermosa from two lanes each way to one and add another stop sign in such close proximity to an already rough intersection is just about the most moronic idea I've ever been forced to witness. I'm doing my best to remain polite here, but it's extremely difficult. It is just completely mind boggling as to how this was even considered an option and an option for what?? What exactly was wrong with the way Pier has been setup? You have made a street that used to flow reasonably well, except when the kids go to or from school, into our own little version of the 405 that has enough room down the center now to play a football game or, what the heck, construct some more businesses. You have now created a constant line of cars clogging up Pier and I and all my friends in town are beyond displeased. I have noticed how you recently tweaked the upper west bound portion, which has improved things a TINY bit, but please, we all beg you, waste some more of our tax dollars and just undo the mess you have made. I also wish to express concern over the new stop light that was placed on PCH in front of the 24hr. Fitness. I assume our city has no particular control over thatand the jurisdiction for it is with CalTrans, but it also seems to be causing much more congestion up on PCH now too. I can see how it is rather needed, as far as for safe pedestrian crossing, but let's just make it for pedestrian use and/or perhaps the timings of the four lights in that area along PCH need to be studied and improved. In conclusion, entering and leaving Hermosa has now become a thoroughly un -enjoyable thing to do. Could we please get back to what worked and get traffic flowing again? Thank you for your time.

The majority of taxpayers/residents and regular visitors to out town are not pleased with the changes on Pier Avenue. Theyagree that the changesmake no sense and should bp likes is. Nothing has been improved, or made better. The idea of creatingwidersidewalks. so that business. on Pier can use this area as extended storefronts or dining areas will only add to more congestion. Take a look at the sidewalk in front on Martha's on 22nd street, there are chairs, dogs tied to the street signs, strollers; and. bikes parked, thus blocking the sidewalk and leaving no room for pedestrians. DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO PIER!!!! Keep the sidewalks for walking and not as extended business/storefronts. In addition there is backup of traffic in both directions at peak traffic hours. It took more then 5 minutes to make a left turn on to Pier from Manhattan Avenue the other day because traffic was backed up alf the way down to Herrnosa Ave. More congestion!!! Also to conduct this TEST during the summer will not show the true impact of the change, you need to factor in the school drop off and Pick up traffic. This is a BAD idea. There are other area's in the city where these funds can be put to better use; sidewalk on 24th street .from .Park to Valley, so students can walk safely to and from school, and not in the MIDDLE of the street. How about painting the building at Clark? Or if you want to make it safer for drivers, widen Ardmore about a foot or two between Pier arid 8th street. Increase stearim cleaning'.on the Plaza, scythe smell of dog urine is not so strong, include the alleys for the human urine. Build covers for trash bins in downtwon area, so the smell afresh cooking does not permiate the area. Just a few suggestion. I have morel!!!

I was also very confused as to how Hermosa was going to spend over $8,000 to "tweak" the striping but uses the cost of $10,000 as a reason not to put the road back to a four lane road. How does this make any sense??? I think Hermosa could sport the extra $2,000 and save its residents and tax payers the problems this change is causing. I am in total agreement with Keegan that the traffic would overflow to Hermosa private neighborhoods as it is already happening. After taking a look at our visitors on July 4th it was such a relief to be able to go to upper Pier for some peace. Why is Hermosa so insistent on making our town the Party mecca of the beach communities??? Of course Hermosa is catering to the restaurants and bars. Just take a look at lower pier. How many new bars are going to be allowed to open on upper pier?? And would someone please explain what the new Whole Foods market on Rosecrans has to do with anything? I am pretty sure that Alta Dena doesn't have to worry. As a resident of'Hermosa I am continually miffed as to why this city puts more value into our visitors than its residents. Now that the road has been re -stripped there are still backups from Monterey all the way to Bard. why is the OK??? It is my hope that the city council / planning commission is listening to its residents. There has only been complaints and frustrations from the people whom I have spoken to. Please.

I am concerned that this will send inebriated people through residential streets. It is tolerable to limit the partygoers that come from other cities and `states to the commercial area, but it is not acceptable to have these same people driving through the residential areas of Hermosa Beach. The crime statistics for our beautiful town have skyrocketed compared to the past relative safety of residing here. In addition, I hope that the traffic counts will be done once school is in session, as traffic was always a problem with two lanes. So far, we are very unhappy with the traffic lane reduction program and have not talked to any other resident who is happy with it.

Our garage is on Bayview. For over 11 years, we have headed north on Bayview, turned right onto Pier, and headed east up to PCH. Now, with only one lane in each direction on Pier, it is IMPOSSIBLE to SAFELY turn from Bayview. In order to see around the parked cars to our left and right, we have to pull ALL THE WAY OUT ONTO PIER AVENUE to make a turn. It was safe when there were two lanes in each direction because the cars heading east had another lane to drive in. Now, they drive right into US and we have nowhere to go. The same goes for the residents on Loma and Cypress. However well -intended, the re -striping on Pier Avenue is just NOT safe for residents who use that street every morning and evening. I feel for the residents on 8th Street who have complained: about the increase in traffic on their street. Sorry to say, my husband, my daughter and Iall use 8th Street now to getup to PCH. Many of our friends on Bayview, Manhattan Avenue, Monterey and Loma do the same. Pier Avenue was not broken and you sure didn't fix it. Put four lanes back. If you're worried about pedestrians, paint better crosswalks and put up better signs. Your bad decisions have made many residents miserable.

This recent change begs to ask the question..why fix what was not broken? It now will take me, on the average, an additional 2-3 minutes to travel either west or eastbound on the same stretch of pavement which used to flow relatively smoothly and without restriction. With the additional stop sign at the fire station, I cannot figure out the rational behind these latest changes. The amount of tax revenue spent on the research, implementation and then restructuring is astounding. During the weekend crowds, you now have to completely stop to allow each and every vehicle to back out from their parking spots along Pier to join the flow of traffic. I have heard that one reason for the changes was to PROMOTE business in the immediate area. Have you ever gone to a store only to be irritated by the parking and (waste of) time investment? I fear this IS happening, at least with those who should matter most to this Council: the homeowners and residents of Hermosa Beach. Once again, I urge you to reconsider these failed changes. I also ask that you consider the slowed response times our public safety officials will undoubtedly experience as well.

I tried to keep and open mind when the first reconfiguration was put in place, but it was a real mess.. Now, even more has been spent to try another option. Again, I tried to keep an open mind, and yes,. there was some improvement. However, this morning at 8 am I drove to the P.O. to drop off a letter. I could not help but notice that the "do not block" area in front of the firehouse, and right by the new stop sign, was kept totally blocked for the entire time it took me to accomplish my mission. I'm sure this must be a problem in the afternoon rush as well. This is a real safety issue; there is no way the truck could have gotten out of there in a timely manner.

The re -striping hasn't bothered me at all and I've experienced no inconvenience as a result of the project. I think that the plan to overhaul upper Pier Avenue will create a more vibrant and upscale community center that ultimately will improve our community's living standards and raise property values.

Jackie Drasco Deputy City Clerk City of Hermosa Beach From: Erin Ryan [mailto:aeryno©yahoo.com] Sent: Friday, September 22, 2006 10:15 AM To: City Clerk Subject: Please return Hermosa Beach back to normal As a resident of Hermosa Beach for six years, I was completely displeased when the powers that be decided to re -strip Pier Avenue. Just trying to gethome to Monterey and 8th Street from Vons is like taking your life in your own hands now. I have to wait at the stop sign to exit the parking lot of Vons for several minutes. And God forbid residents have to do something on the weekends. I think it is obvious the residents of this once beautiful city are disgusted with the way our responses and insights have been treated on this project. No one is listening to us. Not only is this re -striping project a disaster, Hermosa Beach needs to do away with adding more bars to the Pier. I have not had one Friday or Saturday night's sleep go undisturbed all summer long with drunken patrons of the bar scene stumbling down the alleys and streets and making noise, urinating on the streets and sidewalks, screaming at yelling, all between the hours of lam and 4am. Please pass this message along to the decision makers of this city. What once was a lovely and cozy place to live is quickly becoming a dirty and dreadful place to visit. Listen to those who live here, who pay taxes here, who support the day to day life of Hermosa Beach. We do know what is best for us even if you don't. Sincerely, Erin Ryan Yahoo!

I take Pier Ave. every day on my way to work and home. 1 am not really pleased with this new single lane idea. All it takes is one slow truck (which are many in the morning) or someone crossing the street, etc,. to back the traffic up. This morning there was a real mess. A tow truck was parked across the entire east bound and middle lane and partially into the west bound lane. He was removing one of the cars that was parked in the "head in" parking on the south side of Pier. This caused a real traffic problem, as traffic eastbound was totally blocked and the westbound was backed up waiting for the cars going east to pass. Since when you are on your way to start work every minute is important, this becomes very frustrating to many drivers.

It was not perfect because it would be better if the road was wider, but it's not. The only time it was a problem was when a long vehicle slant parked and stuck out. But that was so rare and the number of cars that pass through our city are many, many. So the ratio of cars passing easily vs.an occasional pick-up truck doesn't make that a good arguement. What most of the city can agree on is that the present striping does suck and no one is listening evidently except for Michael Keegan.

A governing body is by definition to represent the people. You score a big fat ZERO? ? ? } ' I ? Perhaps we need to start a recall petition - for you are the most arrogant and ignorant city council we have ever had. You refuse to admit you made a huge mistake - and you are jeopardizing my safety! Even the police said, "the lane reduction has slowed them (the police) as they respond to incidents in the western part of town during peak traffice hours" There has always been stop signs on practically every corner - what ignorace to say your purpose was to. slow traffice down. What you have done is create a huge traffice congestion problem in a heavily impacted city. Were you paid off by someone to create this mess? You even admitted, according to the Easy Reader that you have created a 300 per cent increase in the time it takes to drive down Pier Avenue. You have noticed less e-mail because the residents have voiced their complaints and you refuse to listen.

Mr. Morgan noted that he's always been concerned about safety of diagonal parking which would be aided by slowing of traffic; said traffic counts taken the previous day were the highest count ever recorded demonstrating that the reduction of lanes did not divert drivers; said construction on Manhattan Avenue is causing higher counts on Hermosa Avenue. Mr. Steven Hilton of AAE presented the video time lapse photography and will burn copies for the Public Works Department. He reviewed the video twice looking for backups and their duration; found three eastbound on Pier Avenue all due to fire truck leaving or returning and lasted very short periods of time; observation was that traffic slowed due to pedestrians or the fire truck leaving or returning. Highlights of the presentation also included: • Councilmember traveled Pier Ave. from Hermosa Ave. to PCH and worst delay was two minutes • Congestion at Valley/Ardmore intersection not included • Backup issues improved after moving traffic merge to location after STOP on Bard St. • Camera was positioned to see if congestion was at the merge point • Safety is the highest priority — safer for pedestrians to cross two lanes than four lanes • Number of accidents on Pier Ave. appear to be lower • Count on 8th Street lower than when last counted •. Construction on Manhattan Ave. may be causing diversion of traffic to other streets • Staff doesn't see major diversion to other streets from Pier Ave. due to high counts • Taping and counts done at same time Discussion and questions among commissioners included: • Five-year extension possible with MTA Prop C funding, currently about two years into City's five-year extension — could ask for additional extension if necessary • This is called a legacy project — won't change main street more than once in a lifetime — worth taking time to do right-of-way • Ad Hoc committee to provide additional input from viewpoints • General curve of traffic counts indicate increase • Interesting to note that reduction of lanes from two to four has not reduced the traffic on Pier Ave. • Counts for one day may not indicate complete picture — not clear foundation for changes • Do not have capability to time lapse photography to establish counts for over a year • Understood resident suspicion of data — said counts not conclusive but may be making decision partially based on inconclusive data • Reasons for project include: o Pier Ave. has been in poor condition for a long time o Biggest issue is drainage — standing water in gutters o Flooding problems o Is a gateway street for the City • Counts are good — done by a tube that counts — no hidden agenda • Staff concerned about diagonal parking and safe speeds • Community will decide • Original plan led to Pier Plaza improvements • Council will make final decision on whether or not ad hoc committee is established PW Commission ATTACHMENT 5 9/20/06 • Until final decision from Council on direction of project, will not go forward with design which includes street repairs • Comments from commissioners will be brought to Council • Sole purpose of this item is fact finding regarding the Pier Ave. re -striping trial • Feedback from Police and Fire Departments noted delay concerns when trucks parking in median • Emergency evacuation planning part of reformulating of 1992 plan • Stop at Bard primarily benefits mobile home park access as well as police and fire At this time Mr. Winnek opened the floor to public comment; admonished gallery will be keeping comments to three minutes and requested no outbursts from the audience.

Authorize the award ofconstruction contract for Non-CIP Project No. 009-06 Pier Clock Bench Barrier Project to Dave Shaw Concrete and Block, Inc., in the amount of $48,000.00; 2. Authorize the Mayor to execute and the City Clerk to attest the Contract subject to approval of the City Attorney; 3. Authorize an additional appropriation of $29,869.00 from the Downtown Enhancement Fund; 4. Authorize the Director of Public Works to issue change orders as necessary up to $7,000.00. Background: On August 31, 2006, Public Works staff advertised for bids in accordance with public contract requirements. The City Clerk received four bids,by the closing date of September 14, 2006. The bids were publicly opened and read aloud. The results were as follows: Company Bid Amount 1. Dave Shaw Concrete and Block, Inc. 2. M3 Services 3. Freeway Electric 4. Zondiras Corp. The proposed work includes construction of a reinforced concrete bench/barrier. $ 48,000.00 $ 71,175.00 $ 97,680.00 $103,081.00 The project was previously sent out for bids in July, 2006. The low bid received at that time was $105,170.70, which was rejected by the City Council at the recommendation of Public Works Staff. Small design changes were made and the project was re -bid on August 31, 2006, which resulted in a low bid of $48,000.00. Staff reviewed the low bidder's documents and references and recommends award of this contract to Dave Shaw Concrete and Block, Inc. This project was initiated by the donation of the clock to the City from the Kiwanis. Council approved the installation of the clock last year and directed that it be located at the entrance to the Pier Plaza at Hermosa Avenue. The Kiwanis had requested that the clock be installed on a concrete pad that could serve as a bench. While designing this improvement the issue was raised by a resident regarding the inability of the existing bollards at this location to stop a run -away vehicle. Staff considered the issue and determined that the safety concerns were important and recommended that the bollards be replaced by a concrete barrier. This barrier could also provide the bench and pedestal for installation of the donated clock. This concept was designed and presented to the Public Works Commission and received unanimous support from the Commission. Staff presented the award of this contract to Council on September 26, 2006; Council directed staff to install a "mock- up" of the barrier/bench to assist Council in visualizing this improvement. The final mock-up was installed on October 4, 2006. 6c i • Options: 1. Approve installation as designed and authorize award of construction contract; or 2. Reject all bids and direct staff to redesign improvements, Fiscal Impact: The apparent low bid of $48,000 plus contingency of $7,000 brings the project total to $55,000.00. $25,131 has been reappropriated for FY 06-07. An additional appropriation of $29,869.00 (account 109-3301-4201) is needed to complete this project.

MB's other three vending machines are located indoors, one in Joslyn Center's foyer, and two inside the tennis 'pro' shop sign-up building at Live Oak park. (see first image attached) HB to equal MB per square mile would need only 2 vending machines total, not 9. MB to equal the initial count proposed for HB, would need 27 vending machines, or an increase of 22 machines. MB dispenses cokes at the 3 indoor vending locations at $1, and at the two outdoor machines at $1.25. MB's vending machines scream out in bright red, COCA COLA advertising. HB vending machines are proposed to charge 50% more than MB, and 250% more than the current city vending machine located i.e. in City Hall. A likely hazardous electrical condition currently exists at the two outdoor vending machines located outside MB's Manhattan Heights building. The sodas dispensed would all best not be dispensed by the city as they are, in my view, all without any significant nutritional value. The city should avoid offering such "food". Clean working drinking fountains are preferable. MB, per a Beach Reporter story, stated that they do not operate their 5 vending machines for the purpose of raising revenue. The proposed vending machines are not needed, they will degrade the parks, they will require time of city staff in various ways, electricity, be a probable policing problem. A net -negative! Better to have Coca Cola figure out how to contribute to the centennial, if they desire to, without their requiring an ongoing unneeded foot -in -the -door parks vending machine contract. Any such ongoing contract, in any case, should unquestionably be put out as a request for proposal (RFP) to any/all interested vending operators. Centennial or other contributions should not be used as a means to do business with the city so as to avoid a competitive RFP process. This is not a good way to do city business, notwithstanding what others might do. The contract, if it exists, was not posted on the Internet nor was a reference made to same. Kindly do not make any approval for this open-ended service agreement without the contract being available for public review first. Place HB people first.

October 2, 2006 Hermosa Beach City Council, City Manager, City Clerk, City Attorney City Of Hermosa Beach Hermosa Beach, California 90254 RECEIVED OCT .;22006 Per Re: My opposition to the "The Coca Cola Sponsorship Agreement" involving the placement of multiple vending machines in the city's parks, and the lack of noticed and open advertising for proposals from other companies/vendors for such service contract with the city. Honorable Councilmembers, city officials, and others: I have previously submitted comments regarding the proposed "Coca Cola Sponsorship Agreement". Below I am repeating some of those concerns and adding additional others for your consideration prior to any such contract approval. Also at the end of this communication I have attached some newspaper stories regarding vandalizing of vending machines in public parks. My primary concerns are the placement of vending machines in the city's parks, and the lack of public -noticing for solicitations from all companies/vendors interested in providing vending -machine service to the city. This is not a donation in the same sense as i.e. the one -day Kraft Foods largest -beach -blanket "donation" contract. This is a service contract which has the potential to go on and on, could be very lucrative to the service provider, and is coming to council for approval under the guise of being a "donation" to centennial activities. It's a service contract pure and simple with a particular vendor being given an inside track through what I view as a flawed and unfair city process to date. In no particular order then follow additional concerns, and some from my prior communication for your review. As you review these, consider marking those which are concerns/questions you may also have. 1. I believe very careful consideration needs to be given to the placement of vending machines in any location which is not well -secured at all hours, especially the city parks, or in any area which could be an enticement for break-in to a city building. 2. The donation mentioned is not a donation. It's an up -front payment which evidently will not be made if the service provider does not receive an agreement to place cash -taking vending machines into the city's parks via the council's approval. It therefore should be referred to as a city up -front fee rather than a donation. H.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 1 of 7 • • 3. How does the city propose to audit the cash going into the vending machines and assure that there will not be disputes of revenues, as other cities have had, about the actual cash having been deposited into the vending machines? If there is a track record of expected sales it might be better to consider a fixed fee per month per machine and not get involved in the wheeling and dealing of the profit basis actual sales counts. Or, consider having the city itself operate the machines if they are so profitable. The city would best require monthly reports of sales, vandalism, and other notable conditions, even if a simple fixed fee is made per machine per month to the city. 4. If the Coca Cola Corporation or one of its franchise distributors desire to make a donation, that's fine, however again this is not a donation as such. A donation is freely given without strings. This "donation" is like so many others of recent years, one which is not given without a contract signed specifying something to be received by the giver of the "donation". It's a scheme to make money by the party(s) involved, at the city's own residents' and even its children's expense. This also appears to be justifying a method for companies/vendors to make deals with the city without a proper proposal competition being made. This appears to be a very flawed process. 5. This appears to be a back -room deal, a deal which did not come through the front door in a full and transparent manner. This kind of deal might be normal at the county, state, or federal level as that is where this kind of stuff goes on big time, but it is not appropriate in Hermosa Beach. There is no indication the council or staff directed that a public notice be made indicating that the city of Hermosa Beach is soliciting for a provider of vending machine services for its parks and would like to see proposals indicating the amount of money etc. a vendor is willing to provide to the city for such rights. As such this contract has not been solicited in a manner in the best interest of the people and their city. Saying that the city has sought donations for the centennial celebration does not qualify this as a proper process for this contract. This is a contract for services and other companies have not been solicited through appropriate public notice for such a service proposal. This is improper to say the least. 6. The city does not need its city parks degraded with vending machines dispensing over -priced junk-food/drinks to rip-off and possibly contribute to the ill -health of its children or their parents visiting the city's parks. If children are carrying cash, it is doubtful the parents have provided this cash to them to be spent in vending machines in the city's parks. 7. Has the question of vending machines being place in the city parks been reviewed with the PTA or the local schools, or the people up to this point? Has the question been reviewed with the police department? Where is the call out by the people for this? 8. It makes no difference what color or type of machines (as per staff reports) the vendor indicates will be installed in the parks as after a year or so they will likely morph into other machines, snacks, etc, because the distributors, knowing the city will prostitute itself, will likely offer more money year by year to get more of their offerings into the city's parks or city buildings, and besides, once a contract is let, detailed requirements are usually forgotten about or not enforced with time. 9. The city does not need to provide individuals or gangs an excuse to be in the parks to "get a can of soda". These vending machines will be a magnate for undesired consequences in the parks, consequences which, if they will entail policing or paramedic responses, could be costly in addition to any criminal activity they contribute to. One unfortunate incident could cost the city a million(s) of dollars in a law suit settlement for providing such an unnecessary attractive nuisance in this current age we live in. H.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 2 of 7 • • 10. Vending machines are a target for graffiti and other vandalism. This will be an ongoing nuisance and condition leading to potential robbery of individuals, or other unsavory activity to be presented to children or others using the vending machines in the parks. 11. If this is a donation for a one time event why will a perpetual trashing of the city's parks be required? The council has already permitted trashy vending machines in front of the pier -head wall (perhaps placed there by the county without challenge by the city), a pier -wall again which itself is doing nothing but blocking out the view of the ocean and which needs to be modified. 12. The city's employees will not appreciate seeing soda prices escalate from 60 cents to $1.50 to $2.00 in the present city vending machines. Have they been considered or consulted? 13. It took residents years of arguing with a former city manager to rid the town of the advertising bus benches that littered and degraded the city in the late 1980s, as those were bringing a few thousands to the city annually, without any consideration that they made the city look degraded as like a downtown urban area. Thus any thought that these machines will be pulled out at the end of 12 months is just that, little more than a thought. A token city revenue -stream once initiated is seldom given up and the vendor is probably not interested in a short term deal. 14. This deal was metaphorically referred to as the "-The Coke Deal-" in a local newspaper's stories 9/21/06 and 9/28/06. The metaphor is a good one. The city will become addicted to the token revenue it receives without consideration of the creeping degradation and ripping -off of the city's own people through the sale of overpriced junk-food/drinks and the subtle advertising indoctrination of its children. 15. Again this is not the way to even slightly begin to recover revenue to cover the additional millions of dollars annually the city is expending for the extraordinary public safety necessary as directly resulting from the downtown area alcohol approvals made by Hermosa's city councils over the last 13 years. It would be better to focus on reducing those costs or having those businesses necessitating the costly public safety burden to pay those costs rather than degrading the city parks with anything as absurd as vending machines with all their negative propensities. 16. Service trucks will be in the city's parks servicing these unneeded vending machines. The city does not need that. This additional regular traffic into the parks could easily mask trucks in the parks for other activities. 17. Vending machines will unnecessarily compete with the city's local businesses trying to make a living. Businesses which work hard, pay high rents, license fees, etc., and which collect sales taxes the city shares in. 18. Nothing of this sort is needed in the parks other than working water fountains. People bring their own picnic items if they desire. 19. The city council is urged to not place vending machines in any of the parks. If this item was placed on the ballot you know the people would overwhelmingly defeat it. If vending machines are placed in any buildings a fixed fee would be best for the city to receive. And in any event if such contract is to be made, a request for service proposals should be publicly noticed giving the specifics for any and all vendors to make a proposal for these vending services. Again, this is not a donation but rather an excuse for a vendor to make a contract with the city which other companies/vendors have not been given a fair and equal chance to bid for. That is not in the interest of the people whom you represent and may in fact be quite improper. It is certainly not something someone will desire to run for re-election on. I.e. "That they championed for the H.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 3 of 7 • • placement of vending machines in the city's parks and by a vendor which perhaps had an inside track". 20. For one to two dollars per year per resident of revenue to the city, there is no justification for damaging the city parks with vending machines given all the negatives. This is an incredibly bad idea which never should have been considered. Please don't cause the local newspapers to be printing stories that "The Hermosa City Council has authorized the placement of vending machines in its small city parks." 21. It is most unfortunate that the council's time, staffs time, the peoples' time, and even this vendor's time is being wasted on this item. The 'Parks and Recreation Commission' badly erred in approving vending machines to be in the parks. Hopefully the city council will not also err. Thank you for your careful consideration of this matter. Howard Longacre (Hermosa Beach Resident) att: A sample of newspaper stories re: vandalism of vending machines in parks follow. There are too many to attach them all. Vending machines in unsecured areas are a major target, and in secured areas are an incentive for break-ins. The News & Observer Subscribe 1 Subscriber Services 1 Subscriber Reward Friday, September 29, 2006 Raleigh • Durham Cary • Chapel Hill CARY - Police are looking for two young men they say broke into Green Hope High School late Monday night in a vain attempt to steal money from vending machines. Police say they think the young men also broke into vending machines at the nearby Cary Tennis Park on Louis Stephens Drive but again came up empty-handed. The suspects, thought to be between 16 and 21 years old, were videotaped walking through the school about 11 p.m. Monday. Authorities don't know how they got into the school. Even though they didn't get away with any money, the suspects could face up to 25 months in prison if convicted of breaking and entering, according to Cary police. Cary Crime Stoppers will pay up to $2,500 for information leading to the arrest of those involved with the break-in. Police ask anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at 226-CRIM(E) or Capt. Dave Wulff at 469-4017. Burglars use torch to remove outer doors By Shannon Tangonan I-I.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 4 of 7 • • UNION -TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER OCEANSIDE — No soda machine is safe. Burglars using a cutting torch have broken into at least 40 soda machines in North County and south Riverside County over the past few months, police say. They take the cash from inside, which can be up to $700. Machines from Temecula to Oceanside have been hit. The burglars usually strike between midnight and 6 a.m. and target vending machines at schools, parks or apartment complexes where there are no surveillance cameras, said Oceanside police Detective Ernie Thibodeaux. "It's a good chunk of change — and I do mean change," Thibodeaux said. In Oceanside, the latest targets were side-by-side soda machines at Martin Luther King Park off Mesa Drive on Dec. 17. Oceanside police have investigated at least 10 soda machine burglaries. Escondido police have had more than a dozen similar thefts and there have been about 15 such burglaries in Temecula. It's unknown whether all the thefts are connected, but the method of operation is similar in most of the cases, police say. The burglars use a torch to cut the hinges to the machine's outer door, which falls off. They then cut into a second door. "They still have to pry the coin box out, but it's a lot easier when you don't have to pry through two doors," Thibodeaux said. In Escondido, detectives have been investigating soda machine break-ins for the past month and a half. In some cases, cutting torches were used, said Escondido police Sgt. Chuck Gaylor. The descriptions of the thieves have varied, which leads Gaylor to believe that more than one group is hitting the machines. "Probably what happens, and this is total speculation, is that lots of people in the criminal community work in groups ... they trade information," Gaylor said. Word might be out that "this is an easy way to get money," he said. Thibodeaux said detectives are narrowing a list of possible suspects and hope to make an arrest soon. Sep 13, 2006 - 10:39:33 CDT Two confess to breaking into soda machines Duo says they broke into approximately 10 machines a night By TERESA RESSEL\Daily Journal Staff Writer H.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 5 of 7 • • Police believe they now know who was behind the thefts of money from numerous soda machines in Jefferson, St. Francois, Perry and Cape Girardeau counties. Park Hills Detective Mike Kurtz said two individuals have confessed to breaking into seven soda machines in Park Hills, as well as soda machines in Farmington, Desloge, Bonne Terre and rural areas of the county, Perryville, Jackson, Pevely and Festus. Kurtz said the duo, a 19 -year-old Ironton man and a 21 -year-old former St. Louis resident, stole from so many vending machines over a month-long period that the suspects can not say how many they broke into. He said they confessed to breaking into approximately 10 a night. He said one of the breaks in the case came when Jackson police officers obtained a surveillance video outside a business. The video showed two individuals exiting a red and white truck and breaking into a soda machine. The quality of the video was poor but Park Hills Lt. Doug Bowles was able to use their new VideoDetective to enhance the video footage and print out still images of two individuals and their vehicle. Kurtz said the second break in the case came when a person in Ironton saw two men breaking into soda machines and confronted them. This person was able to get the license plate on the truck and also overheard the men calling each other by their first names. The Ironton Police Department issued a stop and hold on the owner of the truck. Kurtz said the owner of the truck turned himself in at the St. Francois County Jail. The other man was picked up by a St. Francois County deputy. Kurtz conducted the initial interview. He said the two gave full confessions, implicating a third person who they say fled to another state. Kurtz said it was the fact that all of the agencies worked together that solved the case. He said there was good cooperation. Charges have not been filed at this time. Park Hills officers will be asking the prosecuting attorney to file felony charges of property damage and misdemeanor charges of theft. He said the other jurisdictions will also be seeking charges. Farmington Police Chief Rick Baker said Detective Tim Porter has been investigating the cases in Farmington. He will begin tying up the loose ends in the investigation to send a report to the prosecuting attorney. Kurtz estimates that each machine was valued at $2,000-3,000 and the machines will have to be replaced. ".According to their own statements, they got $40 or less from each machine," he said. "Oddly enough, they didn't steal any of the soda. They were quite proud of that." Fourth Man Arrested in Crime Spree at Irmo Park H.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 6 of 7 By Joel Robert Williamson Updated: 9/10/2006 3:12:12 PM First Posted: 9/10/2006 3:01:41 PM (Irmo) - Lexington County Sheriffs Department deputies arrested the fourth and final man who had been wanted for committing a string of crimes, including breaking into a locked maintenance building and stealing two pickup trucks, at Saluda Shoals Park off Bush River Road near Irmo. Lexington County Sheriff James R. Metts says deputies arrested Joel Robert Williamson, 20, of Irmo, at about 12:48 p.m. on Saturday at the suspect's home. Metts says Williamson was arrested on charges of second-degree burglary and grand larceny. Authorities say he was being held Sunday at the Lexington County Detention Center on bail totaling $15,000. Sheriffs detectives previously had arrested Andrew William Davis, 19, of Columbia; Benjamin Bradley Hammett, 21, of Cayce; and David Lee Holton, 18, of North Augusta. Davis, Hammett and Holton each were charged with one count of second-degree burglary and one count of grand larceny. Deputies arrested Davis at about 5:35 p.m. on Thursday, Metts said. Davis was being held Sunday at the Lexington County Detention Center on bail totaling $25,000. Authorities say Myrtle Beach Police Department officers arrested Hammett and Holton on Wednesday, after officers found the men were riding in a Ford F-250 pickup that had been stolen from Saluda Shoals Park at 5605 Bush River Road over Labor Day weekend. Hammett and Holton were taken to the J. Rubin Long Detention Center in Conway. Metts says Davis, Hammett, Holton and Williamson committed a string of crimes at Saluda Shoals Park, starting in late August. The men vandalized buildings and coin-operated vending machines at the park. Investigators say that during Labor Day weekend, Davis, Hammett, Holton and Williamson broke into a locked maintenance building at Saluda Shoals Park and stole the Ford F-250 pickup, a Dodge Ram pickup, cellular phones and a John Deere all -terrain vehicle. The Dodge Ram pickup was later recovered in Marion. The Irmo -Chapin Recreation Commission operates the park. Metts says the case remains under investigation, and detectives might file additional charges against Davis, Hammett, Holton and Williamson.

October 2, 2006 Hermosa Beach City Council, City Manager, City Clerk, City Attorney City Of Hermosa Beach Hermosa Beach, California 90254 Re: My opposition to the "The Coca Cola Sponsorship Agreement" involving the placement of multiple vending machines in the city's parks, and the lack of noticed and open advertising for proposals from other companies/vendors for such service contract with the city. Honorable Councilmembers, city officials, and others: I have previously submitted comments regarding the proposed "Coca Cola Sponsorship Agreement". Below I am repeating some of those concerns and adding additional others for your consideration prior to any such contract approval. Also at the end of this communication I have attached some newspaper stories regarding vandalizing of vending machines in public parks. My primary concerns are the placement of vending machines in the city's parks, and the lack of public -noticing for solicitations from all companies/vendors interested in providing vending -machine service to the city. This is not a donation in the same sense as i.e. the one -day Kraft Foods largest -beach -blanket "donation" contract. This is a service contract which has the potential to go on and on, could be very lucrative to the service provider, and is coming to council for approval under the guise of being a "donation" to centennial activities. It's a service contract pure and simple with a particular vendor being given an inside track through what I view as a flawed and unfair city process to date. In no particular order then follow additional concerns, and some from my prior communication for your review. As you review these, consider marking those which are concerns/questions you may also have. 1. I believe very careful consideration needs to be given to the placement of vending machines in any location which is not well -secured at all hours, especially the city parks, or in any area which could be an enticement for break-in to a city building. 2. The donation mentioned is not a donation. It's an up -front payment which evidently will not be made if the service provider does not receive an agreement to place cash -taking vending machines into the city's parks via the council's approval. It therefore should be referred to as a city up -front fee rather than a donation. H.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page I of7 • • 3. How does the city propose to audit the cash going into the vending machines and assure that there will not be disputes of revenues, as other cities have had, about the actual cash having been deposited into the vending machines? If there is a track record of expected sales it might be better to consider a fixed fee per month per machine and not get involved in the wheeling and dealing of the profit basis actual sales counts. Or, consider having the city itself operate the machines if they are so profitable. The city would best require monthly reports of sales, vandalism, and other notable conditions, even if a simple fixed fee is made per machine per month to the city. 4. If the Coca Cola Corporation or one of its franchise distributors desire to make a donation, that's fine, however again this is not a donation as such. A donation is freely given without strings. This "donation" is like so many others of recent years, one which is not given without a contract signed specifying something to be received by the giver of the "donation". It's a scheme to make money by the party(s) involved, at the city's own residents' and even its children's expense. This also appears to be justifying a method for companies/vendors to make deals with the city without a proper proposal competition being made. This appears to be a very flawed process. 5. This appears to be a back -room deal, a deal which did not come through the front door in a full and transparent manner. This kind of deal might be normal at the county, state, or federal level as that is where this kind of stuff goes on big time, but it is not appropriate in Hermosa Beach. There is no indication the council or staff directed that a public notice be made indicating that the city of Hermosa Beach is soliciting for a provider of vending machine services for its parks and would like to see proposals indicating the amount of money etc. a vendor is willing to provide to the city for such rights. As such this contract has not been solicited in a manner in the best interest of the people and their city. Saying that the city has sought donations for the centennial celebration does not qualify this as a proper process for this contract. This is a contract for services and other companies have not been solicited through appropriate public notice for such a service proposal. This is improper to say the least. 6. The city does not need its city parks degraded with vending machines dispensing over -priced junk-food/drinks to rip-off and possibly contribute to the ill -health of its children or their parents visiting the city's parks. If children are carrying cash, it is doubtful the parents have provided this cash to them to be spent in vending machines in the city's parks. 7. Has the question of vending machines being place in the city parks been reviewed with the PTA or the local schools, or the people up to this point? Has the question been reviewed with the police department? Where is the call out by the people for this? 8. It makes no difference what color or type of machines (as per staff reports) the vendor indicates will be installed in the parks as after a year or so they will likely morph into other machines, snacks, etc, because the distributors, knowing the city will prostitute itself, will likely offer more money year by year to get more of their offerings into the city's parks or city buildings, and besides, once a contract is let, detailed requirements are usually forgotten about or not enforced with time. 9. The city does not need to provide individuals or gangs an excuse to be in the parks to "get a can of soda". These vending machines will be a magnate for undesired consequences in the parks, consequences which, if they will entail policing or paramedic responses, could be costly in addition to any criminal activity they contribute to. One unfortunate incident could cost the city a million(s) of dollars in a law suit settlement for providing such an unnecessary attractive nuisance in this current age we live in. H.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 2 of 7 • • 10. Vending machines are a target for graffiti and other vandalism. This will be an ongoing nuisance and condition leading to potential robbery of individuals, or other unsavory activity to be presented to children or others using the vending machines in the parks. 11. If this is a donation for a one time event why will a perpetual trashing of the city's parks be required? The council has already permitted trashy vending machines in front of the pier -head wall (perhaps placed there by the county without challenge by the city), a pier -wall again which itself is doing nothing but blocking out the view of the ocean and which needs to be modified. 12. The city's employees will not appreciate seeing soda prices escalate from 60 cents to $1.50 to $2.00 in the present city vending machines. Have they been considered or consulted? 13. It took residents years of arguing with a former city manager to rid the town of the advertising bus benches that littered and degraded the city in the late 1980s, as those were bringing a few thousands to the city annually, without any consideration that they made the city look degraded as like a downtown urban area. Thus any thought that these machines will be pulled out at the end of 12 months is just that, little more than a thought. A token city revenue -stream once initiated is seldom given up and the vendor is probably not interested in a short term deal. 14. This deal was metaphorically referred to as the "-The Coke Deal-" in a local newspaper's stories 9/21/06 and 9/28/06. The metaphor is a good one. The city will become addicted to the token revenue it receives without consideration of the creeping degradation and ripping -off of the city's own people through the sale of overpriced junk-food/drinks and the subtle advertising indoctrination of its children. 15. Again this is not the way to even slightly begin to recover revenue to cover the additional millions of dollars annually the city is expending for the extraordinary public safety necessary as directly resulting from the downtown area alcohol approvals made by Hermosa's city councils over the last 13 years. It would be better to focus on reducing those costs or having those businesses necessitating the costly public safety burden to pay those costs rather than degrading the city parks with anything as absurd as vending machines with all their negative propensities. 16. Service trucks will be in the city's parks servicing these unneeded vending machines. The city does not need that. This additional regular traffic into the parks could easily mask trucks in the parks for other activities. 17. Vending machines will unnecessarily compete with the city's local businesses trying to make a living. Businesses which work hard, pay high rents, license fees, etc., and which collect sales taxes the city shares in. 18. Nothing of this sort is needed in the parks other than working water fountains. People bring their own picnic items if they desire. 19. The city council is urged to not place vending machines in any of the parks. If this item was placed on the ballot you know the people would overwhelmingly defeat it. If vending machines are placed in any buildings a fixed fee would be best for the city to receive. And in any event if such contract is to be made, a request for service proposals should be publicly noticed giving the specifics for any and all vendors to make a proposal for these vending services. Again, this is not a donation but rather an excuse for a vendor to make a contract with the city which other companies/vendors have not been given a fair and equal chance to bid for. That is not in the interest of the people whom you represent and may in fact be quite improper. It is certainly not something someone will desire to run for re-election on. I.e. "That they championed for the I-I.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 3 of 7 • • placement of vending machines in the city's parks and by a vendor which perhaps had an inside track". 20. For one to two dollars per year per resident of revenue to the city, there is no justification for damaging the city parks with vending machines given all the negatives. This is an incredibly bad idea which never should have been considered. Please don't cause the local newspapers to be printing stories that "The Hermosa City Council has authorized the placement of vending machines in its small city parks." 21. It is most unfortunate that the council's time, staff's time, the peoples' time, and even this vendor's time is being wasted on this item. The 'Parks and Recreation Commission' badly erred in approving vending machines to be in the parks. Hopefully the city council will not also err. Thank you for your careful consideration of this matter. Howard Longacre (Hermosa Beach Resident) att: A sample of newspaper stories re: vandalism of vending machines in parks follow. There are too many to attach them all. Vending machines in unsecured areas are a major target, and in secured areas are an incentive for break-ins.

Burglars use torch to remove outer doors By Shannon Tangonan -(.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 4 of 7 • • UNION -TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER OCEANSIDE — No soda machine is safe. Burglars using a cutting torch have broken into at least 40 soda machines in North County and south Riverside County over the past few months, police say. They take the cash from inside, which can be up to $700. Machines from Temecula to Oceanside have been hit. The burglars usually strike between midnight and 6 a.m. and target vending machines at schools, parks or apartment complexes where there are no surveillance cameras, said Oceanside police Detective Ernie Thi.bod.eaux. "it's a good chunk of change — and .I. do mean change," Thibodeaux said. In Oceanside, the latest targets were side-by-side soda machines at Martin Luther King Park off Mesa Drive on Dec. 17. Oceanside police have investigated at least 10 soda machine burglaries. Escondido police have had more than a dozen similar thefts and there have been about 15 such burglaries in Temecula. It's unknown whether all the thefts are connected., but the method of operation is similar in most of the cases, police say. The burglars use a torch to cut the hinges to the machine's outer door, which falls off. They then cut into a second door. "They still have to pry the coin box out, but it's a lot easier when you don't have to pry through two doors," Thibodeaux said. In Escondido, detectives have been investigating soda machine bi:'eak-ins for the past month and a half. In some cases, cutting torches were used, said. Escondido police Sgt. Chuck Gaylor. The descriptions of the thieves have varied, which leads Gaylor to believe that more than one group is hitting the machines. "Probably what happens, and this i.s total speculation, is that lots of people in the criminal community work in groups ... they trade information," Gaylor said. Word might be out that "this is an easy way to get money," he said. Thibodeaux said detectives are narrowing a list of possible suspects and hope to make an arrest soon. Sep 13, 2006 - 10:39:33 CDT Two confess to breaking into soda machines Duo says they broke into approximately 10 machines a night By TERESA RESSEL\Daily Journal Staff Writer -(.Longacre to City Council Re: Coca Cola Vending Contract Oct -2-2006 Page 5 of 7 • • Police believe they now know who was behind the thefts of money from numerous soda machines in Jefferson, St. Francois, Perry and Cape Girardeau counties. Park Hills Detective Mike Kurtz said two individuals have confessed to breaking into seven soda machines in Park Hills, as well as soda machines in Farmington, Desloge, Bonne Terre and rural areas of the county, Perryville, Jackson, Pevely and Festus. Kurtz said the duo, a 19 -year-old Ironton man and a 21 -year-old former St. Louis resident, stole from so many vending machines over a month-long period that the suspects can not say how many they broke into. He said they confessed to breaking into approximately 10 a night. He said one of the breaks in the case came when Jackson police officers obtained a surveillance video outside a business. The video showed two individuals exiting a red and white truck and breaking into a soda machine. The quality of the video was poor but Park Hills Lt. Doug Bowles was able to use their new Vi.deo.Detecta.ve to enhance the video footage and print out still. images of two individuals and their vehicle. Kurtz said the second break in the case came when a person in Ironton saw two men breaking into soda machines and confronted them. This person was able to get the license plate on the truck and also overheard the men calling each other by their first names. The Ironton Police Department issued a stop and hold. on the owner of the truck. Kurtz said the owner of the truck turned himself in at the St. Francois County Jail. The other man was picked up by a St. Francois County deputy. Kurtz conducted the initial interview. :He said the two gave full confessions, implicating a third person who they say fled to another state. Kurtz said it was the fact that all of the agencies worked together that solved the case. He said there was good cooperation. Charges have not been filed at this time. Park Hills officers well be asking the prosecuting attorney to file felony charges of property damage and misdemeanor charges of theft. He said the other jurisdictions Wall also be seeking charges. Farmington Police Chief Rick Baker said Detective Tim Porter has been investigating the cases in Farmington. He Will began tying up the loose ends in the i.nvestigati.on to send a report to the prosecuting attorney. Kurtz estimates that each machine was valued at $2,000-3,000 and the machines will have to be replaced. "According to their own statements, they got $40 or less from each machine," he said. "Oddly enough, they didn't steal any of the soda. They were quite proud of that."

Background: This item was brought up by Councilman Sam Edgerton. Staff was directed by City Council to submit a report assessing the impacts of allowing residences as a permitted land use in the M-1 (Light Manufacturing) district by allowing "live -work" housing. This report examines the potential impacts of allowing such residential use in the M-1 Zone. Analysis: Section 17.28.020 of the Zoning Code sets out the purposes of the M-1 district. The subsections relevant to the present issue include the following purposes: "C: Create and maintain suitable environments for various types of manufacturing and compatible uses, and protect them from the adverse effects of inharmonious uses. "D. Minimize the impact of development in the M-1 zone on adjacent residential districts. "E. Ensure that the appearance and effects of manufacturing and commercial buildings in the M-1 zone are harmonious with the character of the area which they are located..." The following highlights some of the impacts of adding residential as a permitted use in the M-1 zone as a mixed-use development (live -work) given the above purposes and the land use characteristics of the area: PROS: ■ The amendment will provide additional housing opportunities in the city. • The amendment will reduce housing expenses by enabling M-1 property owners to absorb housing costs as part of their business rent or mortgage expenses. ■ The amendment will create a virtual windfall for owners of property in the M-1 zone with land values increasing by as much as 7.5 times their current market value. (Average cost per foot for M-1 property is $28.14 and average cost per foot for residential property is $215.44).1 The increase in manufacturing property land value will create more property tax income for the City. ■ There is little reinvestment in the M-1 zone because the smaller lot size and road width associated with most M-1 properties in the city may not support larger, traditional 6f • • manufacturing development and the addition of live -work may provide incentive to redevelop the area for alternate uses. CONS: • The amendment will allow construction of residential use above or adjacent to existing industrial and heavy commercial uses such as manufacturing and auto repair that generate substantial noise, vibration and odors. This condition may create predestined code enforcement problems since it allows many incompatible abutting land uses. These impacts occur much less frequently among more compatible land use combinations, such as residential next to commercial or office uses. • Existing M-1 uses may be forced to close or restrict certain business operations due to complaints from new residential neighbors in the zone. The kinds of business permitted in the M-1 zone that may be affected by increased complaints include auto repair, surfboard manufacturing, cabinet shops and other similar businesses that generate fumes, excessive noise and vibration. These complaints will likely increase with residential uses in the M-1 zone and the City will be caught in an on-going cycle of complaints and code enforcement.2 (Please see attached land use survey). ■ Housing developer outbid virtually any other land use. Thus the proposed amendment will cause a reduction or the eventual elimination of manufacturing uses in the City as industrial land is replaced by more profitable residential development. This reduction will exacerbate the existing imbalance noted in a recent appraisal report that shows, while 55% of land in the City is allocated to residential use, only 0.8% is allocated to industrial. 3 • Traditional industrial uses that provide a source of jobs and are part of the City's tax base that will be lost. • Live work arrangements are difficult to enforce and the uses may transition to exclusively residential use. ■ Allowing residential land uses in the M-1 district may require more services (since residential uses consume more city services such as police and fire department service than industrial uses), eroding some of the tax benefit the proposed use brings to the City. Existing Residential Uses in the M-1 Zone. There are several properties originally zoned for manufacturing east of Ardmore Avenue that were designed residential in the General Plan. On a case-by-case basis these nonconforming properties have been rezoned to residential to conform with the General Plan designation and are distinguished from the remainder of the M-1 zone in that they are separated from the manufacturing zone by the greenbelt and abutting residential property to the east. (Please see attached map and land use survey.) 2 ■ • • Conclusion: Since residential land is many times more valuable than industrial land in Hermosa Beach, the allowance of new residential uses in the M-1 zone will open the door for the conversion of the remaining manufacturing land to residential use. This transition will likely further reduce the small amount of industrial property in the City. The present owners of the industrial land will benefit by the unusual windfall increase in land value, but at a cost to the future residents of the area and to the City because of the impacts described above. Staff believes that there is not a compelling reason then to add live -work to the manufacturing zone since the benefits to M-1 land owners and to the City from the inflated land values may not outweigh the disadvantages of eliminating industrial uses in the City.

For example, nuisance complaints from residences immediately outside the M-1 zone have been directed at surfboard manufacturers located on Cypress Avenue and Valley Drive due to resin fumes and airborne debris from foam sanding used in the surfboard manufacturing process. Even in the C-3 zone the conflict between residential with abutting manufacturing -like or commercial uses has been observed with the location of a new housing development on 7th Street adjacent to Learned lumber yard. Soon after moving in, the new residents of 7th Street repeatedly complained to the city regarding operating hours, noise, dust and fumes relating to the long established business. 3.

We ultimately utilized sale transactions specifically within a five -mile radius of the city of Hermosa Beach which occurred from 2000 to the present. The sales ultimately utilized were segregated by land use of residential, commercial and industrial. The average price psf for residential, commercial and industrial sites were considered individually. We had a body of data consisting of around 220 sales transactions, which gave us a good sample to work with. Next we considered the land use allocation within the city of Hermosa Beach. The Hermosa Beach General Plan Land Use Element was amended in 1994, and includes the following land use allocation. The city's land use is divided between residential, commercial and office, open space, and other land uses. We utilized the allocation for residential, commercial, industrial, open space, public facilities and as five separate categories. Based upon this, the total acreage for the city of Hermosa Beach is broken down as follows: Land Use Acres % of Total Residential 457 54.88 % Commercial and office 86 10.29% Industrial 7 0.82% Open Space 225 27.08% Public 58 6.93 % Total 832 100.00% We then utilized the average and median price for land in each land use to determine the weighted average price for land in the city of Hermosa Beach. This considers the impact of the variety of land uses within the city under the three primary development types. We recognize that the land use most often considered for the In -Lieu fee would likely be residential land. However, this is not exclusive to the use of only residential land for the possible conversion to park land use. An alternative would be to dedicate land to the park land use, and could alternatively be some other land use type (often at a lesser price). Therefore we have used the weighted average approach, to consider the land available (any type) within the city for purposes of this ordinance. While the land values for the residential, commercial and industrial uses are obvious. We noted that open space and parkland values and public facilities considered to have a zero value in recognizing their non- economic use. The following tables show the allocation of land use, percentage of the total, average dollars and median dollars psf for land area by use and their resulting weighted dollars psf: WEIGHTED LAND SALES FIVE -MILE RADIUS 2000 TO CURRENT Average Weighted Median Weighted Land Use Acres % of Total $ Per Sf $ Per Sf $ Per Sf $ Per Sf Residential 457 54.88% $215.44 $118.24 $124.14 $68.13 Commercial and office 86 10.29% 88.32 9.09 59.89 6.16 Industrial 7 0.82% 28.14 0.23 21.46 0.18 Parks and Open Space 225 27.08% 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 Public 58 6.93% 0.00 • 0.00 0.00 0.00 Total 832 100.00% $127.56 $74.47 Average $101.01 Hermosa Beach - Park In -Lieu Fee Page 6 File No. 06-192 October 10, 2006 City Council City of Hermosa Beach 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 Re: Request for addition as a Supplemental Agenda Item, 623 Third Street's M-1 Zoning Dear City Council, We would like to ask the City Council to please consider changing the zoning on our house from M-1 to residential, during its discussion of manufacturing zoning issues at tonight's Council meeting. • 623 Third Street is surrounded by residential zoning on all sides. • Our 3,600 square foot lot is too small for a viable manufacturing operation. • We are completely surrounded by residential housing, and although the current zoning designation reflects a time when the greenbelt was a working rail line, today's reality is dramatically different. • It is our understanding that the city's current "master plan" calls for our lot to be used as "R-2" housing.

B. 951- 50.- 5 • September 28, 2006 Honorable Mayor and Members of the Regular Meeting of Hermosa Beach City Council October 10, 2006 SUBJECT: REVIEW OF ELIMINATING RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS IN THE C-1 ZONE Recommendation: That the City Council direct staff as deemed appropriate. Background: This item was brought up by Councilman Sam Edgerton. Council directed staff to submit a report assessing the impacts of eliminating residential condominiums in the C-1 (Limited Commercial Zone) in order to mitigate the potential loss of restaurants and "traditional" uses in the zone. This report assesses the potential impacts of the proposal. The C-1 zone allows certain stand-alone commercial uses and mixed-use development combining ground level commercial with residential uses above. The C-1 zone has allowed residential apartments above commercial for over 60 years and in August 2003 the City Council clarified that the C-1 permitted use list also included residential condominiums. In December 2003 the City adopted a mixed-use ordinance combining standards from the R-3 and C -I zones. Many cities in the area including Manhattan and Redondo Beach, have adopted similar ordinances to encouraged mixed-use development to spur revitalization of underdeveloped properties and to accommodate additional housing need. Developers have incentive to redevelop such properties because of the extra value added to commercial property with residential uses. An example of this revitalization effect in Hermosa Beach is 44 — 48 Hermosa Avenue where a new mixed-use project will replace the businesses that had sat vacant, becoming a code enforcement problem with vagrants and illegal dumping. A developer pursued redevelopment of the site but requested adding condominiums to the permitted use. list in order to develop the project. The City Council's approval of this change facilitated redevelopment. The project is currently in construction. The only other new mixed-use project in the city involves the property at 20 Hermosa Avenue which had been vacated by a restaurant more than two years prior to purchase by a local architect who planned to locate his office on the ground level and his residence above. The project is currently in plan check. There are no other applications to develop mixed-use projects at this time. Analysis: There are 39 C-1 zoned lots in the city, eight of which contain restaurants. The loss of existing restaurant or 'traditional" uses in the C-1 zone was raised as a potential problem created by the new mixed-use ordinance and it was suggested that removing condominiums from the C-1 permitted use list would present a way to mitigate this problem because there would be no compelling reason to redevelop C-1 zoned property. The current mixed-use development standards in the C-1 zone prohibit several commercial uses including restaurants that were deemed to be inharmonious with residential above. A new mixed-use project cannot include a restaurant. Stand-alone restaurant are still a permitted use in the zone and stand-alone condominiums are not permitted. The attached table and land use survey indicates that there are no existing restaurants located on C-1 zone lots that are susceptible to redevelopment without property assembly because these uses occupy lots that are too small to accommodate a mixed-use project with required parking. Thus the restaurant properties cannot be redeveloped as a mixed-use project unless they are assembled with other C-1 zoned properties and are not likely to be replaced. The proposal to remove residential condominiums from the C-1 zone 6 g will potentially affect 13 properties that are similarly zoned and located adjacent to three or more lots that can be assembled and developed with at least a two -unit project. Less than two units is generally not a profitable development because of the cost of land, and less than three lots generally provide inadequate land area to accommodate ground level commercial and required project parking unless the.lotsare exceptionally large. Further, if a lot is small and not directly accessed by two or more streets, it is generally not possible to redevelop it with even one residential unit above ground level retail because parking is a major controlling factor in developing a mixed use project. If a project cannot be parked it cannot be built. The attached table illustrates how parking affects mixed-use development feasibility in the C-1 zone. Most single, small lots that include uses like Martha's, El Gringos or the Bottle Inn restaurants are not threatened with redevelopment and similarly "traditional" uses such as the Green Store, Boccatos and Mikey's Deli are also not developable due to the inability to provide adequate parking.' Any additional concerns about losing existing restaurants and "traditional" uses in the C-1 zone can be addressed in two ways: 1. Amend the permitted use list to remove condominiums as part of the residential uses allowed in the C-1 zone, similar to the way it was written originally which reduces the incentive to redevelop C-1 property; or 2. Eliminate the restriction on restaurants from the Mixed Use Ordinance. (ie. amend "Limitation on allowed Commercial Uses". The types of uses that are currently prohibited in the mixed- use ordinance include restaurants, bars, laundries and stand alone parking lots or structures.

Permitted Use List and Mixed -Use Ordinance Notes: 1. The C-1 Development Spreadsheet shows existing land uses, required parking for mixed use commercial and residential projects and project feasibility for each property based upon parking. Alternate calculations were prepared for reorienting the commercial on the site (noted with "A" following the Parcel Number column), since the commercial area of the project (and related parking) changes based on lot orientation. Lots that may be assembled are shown shaded/colored on the spreadsheet. The tabulated data indicates the following: • One Lot Mixed Use Development with Street Frontage on One or Two Sides - Single lots are generally too small to redevelop with two units unless they are accessed by streets or alleys on two or more property boundaries which allows more efficient lot utilization with back-up onto alleys, etc. (See Attachment 3). Tandem parking is not permitted. ■ Two Lot Mixed Use Development - If two standard lots are assembled the additional commercial frontage requires additional parking and generally cannot be parked. ■ Three Lot Mixed Use Development - Three lots typically provide enough land to park the commercial and residential portions of a project.

ORDINANCE ADJUSTING CITY COUNCIL COMPENSATION I • 111 /6)//0/a7 September 26, 2006 Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of October 10, 2006 Recommendation: Waive full reading and introduce ordinance adjusting Council compensation for City Councilmembers and amending the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code. Background: At the September 12, 2006 City Council meeting, Council directed staff to return with an ordinance that addresses Councilmember compensation. Government Code Section 36516 allows a general law City to pay Councilmembers a monthly compensation in relation to the population size of their City. Government Code Section 36516 further states that a general law City may increase Council stipends 5% per year since the time of the last increase. The City of Hermosa Beach's City Council has not had an adjustment to its monthly compensation since compensation was established in 1986. In view of the increases in the cost of living since 1986, Council may want to consider an increase to the Council's compensation. The Government Code further states that, upon Council approval, a compensation increase may not go into effect until after the Council election and at least one member has begun a new term of office. Therefore, any increase in Councilmember compensation would not go into effect until November, 2007. The Government Code does not specify whether the 5% is to be calculated using compound or simple interest, however, the Attorney General has recently ruled that the increase must be calculated on a simple interest basis. Using the simple interest calculation, the maximum amount that Council compensation can be increased is to $600 per month — using the simple interest calculation, $300 x 5% _ $15 x 20 years = $300 + $300 (existing compensation) = $600. Alternatives: 1. Increase monthly compensation for a lesser amount than $300 per month. Fiscal Impact: If approved, any increased compensation will be budgeted as part of the FY 07-08 Budget. Respectfully submitted, S .hen R. Burrell City Manager 6h • • ORDINANCE NO.

Section 2. Section 2.72.040 of Title 2, Chapter 2.72 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code is amended to read as follows: 2.72.040 Compensation of city council.

Kane with Mr. Cody's permission] Bob Meistrell recognized that his identical twin brother Bill was sinking when Bill failed to recognize him on a recent visit. "Who are you again," Billy asked me. "I said, `I'm Bob, your brother.' "He said, `I don't believe you. Are you sure you're Bob?' "I started to get angry with him. I said, `Don't you know your own brother?" "He asked me, `Where'd we meet?' "Now I was really angry. Then he started laughing. He was a jokester `til the end," Bob said Tuesday afternoon. Bob's older brother (Bill was born be- fore midnight, Bob after midnight), busi- ness partner, fellow lifeguard, Pioneer . Surfing Hall of Famer, Diving Hall of Famer, Wreck Divers Hall of Fame, Surf Industry Manufacturers Association Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, Advisory Board Member to the Historical Diving Society and best friend died July 25th following a long fight with Parkinson's disease. Though Bill Meistrell's failing health was well known among South Bay Waterman and waterwomen, his passing nevertheless stirred feeling suggestive of a major piece of the continent slipping beneath the sea. The response reflected recognition of the debt that just about everyone who seriously enjoys the ocean owes the Meistrell twins. Surfing, diving, windsurfing, Boogie boarding, and body surfing would not have achieved widespread popular- ity when they did had the Meistrell brothers not solved the hypothermia problem with their development of the modern wet suit. In 1953, the twins acquired a half interest in a one -year-old dive and surf shop: , aptly called "Dive N' Surf." The shop, on the Redondo waterfront next to -the Fox movie theater, was founded by two of the twins' watermen buddies, Bev Morgan and Hap Jacobs. Like other post World War II divers and surfers, the Meistrells experimented`with various materials and methods to delay the onset of hypothermia, ranging from wool sweaters and battery heated, flight pilot "bunny suits," to fires on the beach. Finally, one day in 1953, Morgan and the Meistrell solved the problem with the introduction of a wetsuit they called the "Dive N' Surf Thermocine." What set the Dive N' Surf wetsuit apart from the latex covered canvas favored . al by hardhat divers and the latex frogman suit popular with SCUBA divers was its use of closed -cell neoprene rubber. Neoprene possessed two qualities that other rubbers didn't. Its thousands of tiny air cells retained body heat and, perhaps more importantly, kept its wearers afloat. Boonville boys Bill and Bob Meistrell were born in 1928 in Booneville, Mo., population 13,000. Bill would have been 78 ori July 30th, and Bob 78 on July 31st. The twins, older brothers John and Joe and sisters Fran, Mary Ann and Judy were raised alone by their mom Mary from the time the twins were four -years -old. That year their dad was shot and killed in his office vault by a former business partner over a dispute about the partner's delinquent mortgages. In spite of Boonville being as far from any ocean as a person can get while still living in the continental U.S., the teenage twins developed a fascination with deep sea diving. t, The family home was on a hill overlooking the municipal pool, which enabled the twins' mother to keep an eye on them while from the kitchen window. "We joined the Boy Scouts so we could compete in the.annual swim meet," Bob said during a 2003 interview when Dive N' Surf celebrated its 50th Anniversary. "After the meet we'd quit." Pool passes were $10 and meant to last a summer. But the twins used up their punch cards after only a few days and their mother couldn't afford to keep buying more. The pool supervisor allowed them to swim for free in exchange for draining and scrubbing the pool three times each week. The time was 1941. The twins were 13. The National Guard was training in town with wooden rifles. "We read about Navy hard hat divers, who became heroes when the Germans started sinking ships," Bill recalled. "They wore latex -covered canvas suits and a metal helmet bolted to a breastplate with an air hose attached to a pump on the ship." "So we got a five gallon vegetable oil can from mom's mercantile store and cut holes in the front and bottom," added Bob. "Then we pulled up tar from the street in front of our house and chewed it to soften it and seal the glass faceplate. We soldered a hose fitting to the top and fit it with a spring and a marble that worked like a check valve so the air wouldn't go back out when we stopped pumping. I don't know how we -knew we needed a valve. It just seemed like the thing to do." They took their dive helmet, a garden hose, a bike pump andsome lead weights from their mother's store to the municipal swimming pool. "One of us would sit on the bottom of the pool and read library books while the other worked the bicycle pump 'til it got so hot we had to put it in the pool to cool it down,' Bill recalled. "We also marched around the bottoms of different lakes in the area. Our morn built us a lake on our property. I don't know why we didn't get air embolisms." California, here we come At the start of World War II, their older brother Joe, who was 4F because of deafness in one ear, moved to Manhattan Beach to work in the aircraft industry In 1944, the twins followed with their sisters and mom, bringing their dive helmet and dreams of sunken treasure and owning a submarine with them.They finally got a yellow, one-man submarine, capable of diving to 750 feet in 1975. The sunken treasure dream would come true in 1996 when they participated in the recovery of $10 million in gold coins from the Civil War -era, side-wheeler "Brother Jonathan" off the coast of Crescent City. But the homemade dive helmet, and with it a piece of diving history, went into the trash after the now 15 -year-old boys found a blue, barely used dive helmet with a double piston pump, 50 feet of hose and shoe weights, all for $25. "Mom asked why it was so cheap," Bob said. "It was because the guy who owned it drowned." "We marched all around the Redondo breakwall with that thing, but could only do one dive a day because we'd come up with our eyes bloodshot and ears bleeding," added Bill. "We could never get below 10 or 15 feet." There was no one to tell them that the atmospheric pressure on a diver's eardrums increases three pounds every sit feet. The Boonville twins had no trouble adjusting to life in Manhattan Beach, where they lived with their mother and grandmother. Both took up surfing and played football at El Segundo High, despite being only 5 -foot 7 and weighing 128 pounds. "I got the fastest letter in football history," Bob said. "I made a tackle on the first play of the season and crushed a vertebra. I walked off the field and the coach was about to send me back in when I fainted and fell into in the sawdust pit." After high school, the two passed the lifeguard run -swim -run test, becoming the smallest lifeguards in the department's history. When the Korean War broke out and Bill was drafted. Bob assumed his broken back would earn him a deferment. Bill had made plans to go to Hawaii with surfboard builder Dale Velzy Velzy was counting on a deferment for "house- maid knees." Before Velzy's Army physical, he crawled around on his knees until they bled. "I went to see Dale, who was living with his mother in an apartment over the Her- mosa mortuary on Pier Ave.," Bill said. "He had a quart of milk in one hand and a paper in the other hand. He said we weren't going to Hawaii. The paper was his draft notice." • Bob's draft notice followed. He was sent to Fort Ord in northern California. Bob lived on Pleasure Point in Santa Cruz and spent his evenings and weekends surfing the area's icy, but well -shaped waves. "People thought we were crazy sons of a gun," Bob said. "And we were. I can still feel the chill in my bones when I think about surfing at night by car light at Pleasure Point. All we had were those wool, Army sweaters to'keep us warm. I'd take it off and wring it out every time I fell off my board. We'd last for three or four waves, then run to our cars and turn the heater on, and then give it another go. People thought we were nuts. They practically moved to the other side of the street when we walked by with our boards." Significantly, he added, though he thought he knew every surfer in the area, he never ran into jack O'Neil, the founder of O'Neil Wetsuits. O'Neil claims to have invented the neoprene wetsuit in 1952, one year before the Dive N'Surf wet suit was introduced. Bill, meanwhile, in the hopes of avoiding assignment to a rifle company, volun- teered for what he thought was "heavy motors." He spent the next 10 months with a heavy mortar company on the front lines, where he earned a Bronze Star. Bill and his Commanding Officer, Captain Barron were at an outpost communicating with soldiers that were deploying mortar rounds at the North Koreans. There was no such thing as "wireless. communication" at the time, and the hard -wired line to the mortars suddenly stopped working. Immediately, Bill told Captain Barron that he would restore the line. Bill grabbed a spool of wire then ran, and crawled on his belly through enemy fire to find and repair the break - which he did, but he did not return. Captain Barron and the company were concerned that he would not make it back because they were taking on considerable enemy mortar fire. Several hours later Bill walked into camp without a scratch! Captain Barron thought it was a very brave thing to do Eno one volunteered to go along with 11 and recommended Bill for the Bronze Star.But even in Korea, Bill found an opportunity to get in the water. "I was in Pusan on R and R and was walking down the beach when I saw a guy in a high chair," Bill recalled. "I thought, 'This can't be true.' I asked the guy if they needed more lifeguards, and said, `If you're looking, I'm your man.' The guy had been a lifeguard on Coney Island. He told me to swim out to some black thing out in the water. So I beat the water to a froth and when I got back, he said you're a ' good swimmer. Then he asked me what the black thing was. It was a rock. He said they'd been watching it for three days and thought it was a shark." "I sent Bill a letter telling him I was getting my orders changed so I could come over and join him," Bob said. "He sent me a letter back saying don't do it, the surf's not that good." Coming home After the war the brothers returned home to lifeguarding, surfing and diving. Lifeguarding paid $75 a month. To supplement his income, Bob cleaned floors every evening at Pancho's restaurant, Joe's Candy Cottage, Bentley's men's shop, his brother Johnny's Manhattan Five and Dime and his sister Fran's dress shop, Lee's Fashions. Bill made plans with Velzy to open a dive shop in Topanga. "We had a 14 -foot Chris Craft and we'd dive for lobster or spear halibut every morning," Bill said. "I was surfing an old Joe Quigg board, and Bob had his Sim- mons `slot' board." The Simmons was a crudely hewn, twin fin, sandwich board with slots carved in the side so the board would plane like a modern short board. The brothers disagreed over whether it is the only one left in existence. Bob says it is. Bill said he knows someone who has another one. In either case, it is the precursor of the modern surfboard and is a priceless piece of surfing history. During this period, the brothers purchased their first dive tank and regulator for $125 from fellow lifeguard Frank Rodecker, who sold them out of his car trunk to supplement his income. "On our first dive we went with [future Hermosa city councilman] Jack Wise to salvage a landing barge that had sunk in the harbor," Bob said. "But we couldn't dive deep enough to reach it." The only instruction Rodecker had given them about the new dive gear was not to hold their breath on the way up. The brothers still didn't know about equalizing the pressure on their ears on the way down. Other pioneer divers were even less fortunate. The hand brand Still, it wasn't until almost 10 years had passed, and the "Gidget" movies made surfers the envy of youth around the world, that surfing reached critical mass and wetsuits became as essential an accessory as a pair of corduroy shorts with a Hang Ten emblem. Thermocline wetsuits were selling well, but weren't keeping pace with the competition, notably O'Neil wetsuits from Santa Cruz. One day in 1965, Bill was talking to Hang Ten founder Duke Boyd, when Boyd said to him, "Your suits will never sell with a name like Thermocline. Who the hell knows what a thermocline is?" Divers knew, but even they probably didn't. much care. And the dive market paled in size compared to the burgeoning surf market. "What do you suggest?" Bill asked. "What's so great about your wetsuit?" Boyd asked. "They fit like a glove," Bill answered, the proud tailor. "Let's call it the Body Glove," Boyd answered immediately. A few days later, Boyd sent the Meistrells a black and yellow design with a hand in the middle that looked like an X-ray, encircled by the words "Body Glove." It was accompanied by an invoice for $200 -- $35 for the designer and $175 for Boyd's two words of copy. "Every morning I wake up, I thank Duke Boyd," Bob said. Today the Body Glove hand is one of the most recognizable logos in the marketing world. The name fuels sales approaching $200 million annually, not only of wetsuits for every conceivable water sport, but also clothing, shoes, sports braces, wallets and even cellular phone protectors. Identical and different Bob credited his more introverted brother with being the one "who always wanted to find a way to make things go faster. I was the front of the shop, the retail guy. He was the back of the shop -guy making sure things worked." Despite their contrasting personalities, Bob said, he and his brothers never fought — at least not for long. "He'd get so mad he'd make me stop the car so he could get out and walk. When we'd meet back at the shop we'd go to lunch," Bob said. "I'm going to miss calling him Saturday to rag on him being a year older tharn me. I used to do that every year," Bob said Tuesday afternoon. In addition to his brother Bob, Bill is survived by his wife Lori, former wife Jackie, children Bill Jr. and Julie, daughter-in-law Karen, and grandchildren Jenna, Daily, Jake and Jared, nephews Robbie, Ronnie and Randy, his sisters Fran, Maryanne and Judy, and his worldwide family of watermen and watewomen. • .k,••. . pq', •.,. _107-r- iii.dw voo Every year on July 30th I bugged my brother about being a year older . than me — the next day, July 31 st...I caught up to him. We were inseparable growing up in Missouri [we were the youngest of all the' siblings] and our bond grew even tighter after we moved to California. We did virtually everything together. It is very rare in life to spend that much time with one person. Even with a spouse, you still don't spend the first 20 years of your life in each other's constant company. The only time we were separated was in the army. We thought and acted alike. There are countless incidents through- out the years when Bill would show up at the dock at the precise time I needed him; or that I would stop by the shop at 3:00 am and he would say "I was hoping you would be here." I think it's true that twins have a special 6th sense about each other. As adults, we worked together, played together - which felt like the same thing because we loved our work so much. The only big dif- ference is that I married a brunette and Bill married a blonde!! The longest we were able to stay mad at each other after an argument was about an hour. My fondest memory is of diving off our boat in Catalina and taking off with the scooters — we had so much fun and were gone so long that everyone was sure we had drowned or had been washed out to sea. Just before a search party was sent out, we showed up happy as clams with stories about the things we had seen. Bill and I loved to lobster dive. We were great at it because we worked in sync as a team. Until Bill became very ill, an average year had us spending 360 days a year together. Bill was my best friend and a fantastic brother... I will miss him terribly. Bob (Bill's Twin) i w _._ -_ �� '�I On Sunday evenings, my Dad never said "I have to go to work tomorrow" My Dad always looked forward to going to the "shop." He welcomed everything that came his way with enthusiasm. Because I worked with my Dad I got to spend a lot more time with him than many of my friends did with their fathers. I was so lucky to have that time. . My Dad taught me by example that if you love what you do, you will be happier and you will enjoy your life much more. I will miss him greatly — he is always in my heart. Love, Billy (Son) I remember another funny story about my Dad that happened when I was really little and every summer Catalina was our second home. I remember having a two-piece wetsuit, a Beavertail, jacket and pants. As all kids do, I was constantly going in and out of the water all day long. Back then wetsuits were really hard to get on as they were rubber on both sides and every time that I wanted to put it on, my dad had to literally shake me into the pants and then inch my arms into the jacket one by one. Getting the suit off was no problem as we would just unzip the jacket and dive off the boat into the water and it would just slip right off. Anyway, my Dad used to get tired of putting my wetsuit on several times a day. My Dad made me a one - of -a -kind wetsuit especially for me. I remember it had orange and yellow flowered tape all over it and it had full zippers up both legs and arms so I could put it on myself. I never saw another wetsuit like it and I never had trouble getting my wetsuit on again. At the time I thought my Dad made the suit just for me but looking back, I think he made the suit more for him, so he could have a little time to enjoy Catalina himself. Love, Julie (Daughter) When I was 13 years old I wanted a Honda 90 motorcycle. My Uncle Bill paid 50% of the cost so I could afford it. We were partners in that motorcycle, which I don't believe he ever rode once. In the mid 1980's he took me out to the cliffs and showed me how to fly RC Gliders. We had so many laughs flying those gliders. I remember going back over to his house and working every night in his garage fixing the gliders we had crashed earlier that day. I have many memo- ries diving with him, but what I remember most about him was the incredible relationship he had with my dad. I think I was about 10 years old when I could finally tell my dad and my uncle apart. One time I was showing my dad and mom how to unload my 45 caliber gun, and it discharged, and I shot a hole in Bill's desk at work. When I showed him the hole in his desk he laughed, and shrugged his head. He used the hole as a pencil holder after that. . Robbie Meistrell (Nephew) �� I will never forget the motorcycle trips to Mike's Sky Ranch and to Nine Mile with Uncle Bill, Billy Dick and Dave Garret. We had the most fun anyone could have. The laughs that we had on those trip I will cherish the•rest of my life. I do love him and I will miss him. Rest in Peace Uncle Bill. Randy (Nephew) :iIFW11 Va1:..... Ever since I was a baby my Papa taught me to love the hand like he did. From then on he taught me respect for the ocean as well. When I would visit him we would hike down to the beach with trash bags to pick-up the litter, keeping the ocean blue and the beaches clean. Love, Jenna (Grandaughter) This is my Grandpa when I was a kid getting ready to go out on the Body Glove Boat. These memories on the boat were some of the best times of my life. His passion and love for the sea that he passed on to me will be etched in my heart forever. I will miss my Grandpa and I love him dearly. Love, Daley (Grandson) We had so many good times it is hard to pick just one. We worked together and we played together. I guess if I have to choose just one, the best memory that I have would be getting up in the morning and going lobster diving. These were the best and most enjoyable times that I have ever had going diving in my life - and I will never forget them. I miss you, and I love you Bill. Ronnie (Nephew) Dear Meistrells: I am spiritual in my own way, but I disappoint my little brother, as I don't go to church. I am like a man going to a funeral, who does not really feel too deeply about the deceased. Bill's case is different, because I feel heart broken about his passing. Bill and I go back a long, long way, to when we were knee high to a grasshopper. I spent every Saturday night with the Meistrells in Manhattan Beach and we would watch Milton Berle on the Texaco Star Theater. As we grew up, we both competed against each other in high school and then we were on the same swim squad competing for Compton College. Bill, Bob and I entered the L.A. County Life Guards in the late 40's. I was always involved with Dive N' Surf and so was my family. My dad built the company the first twin hulled racing craft that Dive N' Surf raced to Catalina with. I painted the sign on their building on The Redondo waterfront where they were in business with Jacobs & Morgan and then did art work for their new establishment on Broadway. I designed the first wet suit brochure, when they started manufacturing their famous products. Bill, little Bill, Randy, Dave and I made dozens of adventure trips to Mikes Sky Ranch in Baja together riding our off road bikes from Cape Colonet. Who will ever forget our annual camping trips to Kennedy Meadows? Every year found all of us competing in the Cal Poly Hi -Mtn: Enduro, where, one year I almost froze to death in the pouring down rain in 1984. I will never forget our last ride together. Bill and I decided to make one last venture in Mexico and we drove my Yukon, trailering our bikes to Restaurant La Paloma in Santa Tomas, Baja in 2004. From there we took a picturesque ride along the wind swept sea to Erendira. From this little village, we crossed the mountains on our way to Valle de Trinidad and Mikes Sky Rancho, stopping for a soda at Pero es Nado. (It is better than nothing). Immediately upon leaving, Bill took a nasty spill into a barbwire fence and I patched up his arm with my boot sock. I will weep for years when I think of the times we had together, riding our bikes, starting back in the early 80's. Dave, Bill, little Bill, Randy and I have been exhausted, uncomfortable, wet, cold, cactus -scarred and mosquito bitten, but never sitting on a Honda XR and any of us being unhappy. Dave and I are going again to Mikes on my birthday this year 2006 and I will always turn around to see if Bill is behind me. His memory will continue to bring my joy and I shed tears of lovely remembrance. Bill buried my father, my mother and my darling wife, Marie and I want to be aboard the Body Glove vessel to bury my one friend. Keep in touch and I love you all. Dick Garrett (Life Long Friend) I first met Bill Meistrell in 1962 when I was in college. We became friends, my brother, cousin and I became certified scuba divers (Bob was our instructor) and we spent a lot of time together in Catalina and other places. Bill and Bob told me that when I graduated and became a CPA they would give me their account. They did in 1966 and I was their CPA for 25 years until they hired me as president of their company. I think I can honestly say that other than my father, Bill had more influence in my life than any other man. I learned the principles of hard work, treating customers and people with respect, and generally trying to do your best always. I know my life has been better because of my long friendship and working relationship with Bill. It has been said that if the world is a better place because of you living in it, then you have had a successful life. In the case of Bill, along with his• brother Bob, I don't think you could count the lives that have been positively affected by them. This does not only include the countless individuals with whom they have had per- sonal contact, but their contribution to changing the entire culture of surfing and diving in California and around the world in a positive way. Bill Meistrell's life was a life well lived. Russ Lesser (President of Body Glove) "Love what you do... do what you love."
