Commission
TRI-ANNUAL REPORT FOR ON-SALE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONDITIONAL
USE PERMIT REPORTING PERIOD OF JULY 1, 2024 TO DECEMBER 31, 2024
(Assistant Planner Johnny Case)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission receive and file the report.
Executive Summary:
The tri-annual report presents the findings of the administrative review process in which
the activities of establishments that have a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for on-sale
alcoholic beverage licenses are reviewed against an established set of criterion
(Attachment 1). This report covers the period from July 1, 2024 to December 31,2024.
Based on the data collected during this reporting period, one (1) establishment have
reached the threshold for referral to initiate a Planning Commission review of a CUP.
Background:
The tri-annual report is a review of all on-sale alcoholic beverage establishments that
operate with an approved CUP. The review is presented to the Planning Commission over
the course of two meetings; the first meeting presents the report as an informational item,
while the second meeting is conducted as a public hearing. This is the first of the two
reports and provides background information gathered for this review period. If an
establishment violates any criterion within the set of standards identified (Attachment 1),
by exceeding the defined number of incidents in any six-month period, it will be referred
to the Planning Commission for a review of the CUP. The review may lead to a
modification or revocation hearing based on the frequency of incidents or type of
violations.
The tri-annual report provides data related to each criterion from City departments and
outside agencies involved in the review, including Code Enforcement, Hermosa Beach
Police Department (HBPD), LA County Fire Prevention, and California Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). The data provided in the report does not change
between the two meetings presenting the data as an informational item, and a public
hearing. The two-step review process was established in 2017. In March 2019, the City
Page 12 of 92
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 5
Council approved Planning Commission recommended changes to the process, which
included that the review could be conducted three times per year.
This is the first report in 2025 and covers the six-month reporting period of July 1,2024 to
December 31,2024. In addition to current reporting data from each respective department
and/or Agency (July 1, 2024 to December 31, 24), the previous reporting period date
(March 1, 2024 to August 31, 2024) is attached for review.
Upon request, all relevant establishments can produce prepared food-to-alcohol ratio
reports for the time referenced above. The next report will be presented in March 2024
and will present the same information as a public hearing for the current reporting period
of July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024.
Discussion:
Hermosa Beach Police Department
As part of each tri-annual review, the Hermosa Beach Police Department (HBPD) is
consulted for any calls for service or reports at establishments with a Conditional Use
Permit for on-sale alcohol sales. During the current reporting period of July 1, 2024,
through December 31, 2024, the Hermosa Beach Police Department reported eleven (11)
police reports and two (2) calls for service related to establishments with CUPS for on-
sale alcohol sales. Of the eleven (11) reports and two (2) calls for service, two (2) were
characterized by HBPD as CUP violations. For additional details on the Police reporting
data and protocols please refer to Attachment 1 and 2.
In addition to the two (2) CUP violations, an alleged violation of a CUP was reported on
December 31, 2024. The investigation and citation of the CUP by the Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control occurred outside of this current reporting period of July 1,
2024 through December 31, 2024. However, the reported violation was included because
it resulted in the issuance of a citation and warranted a CUP review. The Planning
Commission, at its January 18, 2025 meeting, reviewed the CUP for 1121 Aviation
Boulevard (Ramen and Sushiya, Inc.), which resulted in the revocation of the CUP for on-
sale alcohol.
LA County Fire
The Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACFD) provides information about paramedic
records which may be used to assist in the investigative analysis of responsible alcohol-
serving practices at on-sale beverage serving establishments. LACFD reported a total of
49 calls for ambulance service that were attributed to alcohol during this review period.
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability (HIPAA) Privacy Rules prevent LACFD
from identifying the reported incidents with a specific business. Therefore, the data is not
capable of providing any meaningful information on the alcohol-serving practices of
specific establishments. However, this information continues to be requested following
the Process and Standards for Review established for On-Sale Alcoholic Beverage
Conditional Use Permits. LACFD is also responsible for inspecting the various
Page 13 of 92
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 5
establishments in the City for fire prevention measures which are conducted after the
summer season. Although this data is site-specific, it relates to the facility inspected and
does not correlate with alcohol service.
Code Enforcement
Code Enforcement routinely checks on-sale alcohol establishments for Conditional Use
Permit compliance. Violations that are both a Municipal Code violation and a CUP
violation are only counted once. Although businesses may have received warnings, the
Department’s policy is to request compliance before issuing a citation fine. During this
period, Code Enforcement did not issue any citation for violation of a Conditional Use
Permit for on-sale alcohol.

and agencies, one (1) establishment has reached the threshold for referral to initiate a
Planning Commission review of a CUP.
General Plan Consistency:
Page 14 of 92
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 4 of 5
This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency
with the City’s General Plan. Relevant Policies are listed below:
General Plan Consistency
Public Safety Element Findings
Goal 5. High quality police and fire protection
services provided to residents and visitors.
The tri-annual report supports
accountability with respect to
alcohol serving establishments and
ensures police resources are being
best utilized and don’t
disproportionately require public
safety resources.
The regular review also provides an
opportunity to the City to impose
additional CUP conditions to
operators that incur repeated
violations such as enhancing on-
site security guards or increasing
security camera footage to prevent
future crimes and/or violations.
Through these efforts the City
seeks to minimize nuisances and
improve upon the quality of life for
local residents and visitors.
Policy 5.1 Crime deterrence. Regularly evaluate
the incidence of crime and identify and
implement measures to deter crime.
Policy 5.2 High Level of response. Achieve
optimal utilization of allocated public safety
resources and provide desired levels of
response, staffing, and protection within the
community.
Policy 5.3 Use of technology. Provide and use
smart surveillance technology and
communication systems to improve crime
prevention and inform the community regarding
actions to take in case of emergency.
Policy 5.8 Nuisance abatement. Encourage
Police Department review of uses that may be
characterized historically by high levels of
nuisance (noise, nighttime patronage, and/or
rates of criminal activity) providing for conditions
of control of use to prevent adverse impacts on
adjacent residences, schools, religious facilities,
and similar “sensitive” uses.
Governance Element Findings
Goal 2. The community is active and engaged in
decision-making processes. The tri-annual review provides an
opportunity for residents, business
owners, and the public at large to
engage in the decision-making
process for CUP modifications.
Policy 2.6 Responsive to community needs.
Continue to be responsive to community
inquiries, providing public information and
recording feedback from community interactions.

Process and Standards for Review of On-Sale Alcoholic Beverage Conditional Use Permits
1) The CUP review process will consist of an administrative review process in which the on-sale establishments’ activities would be reviewed against an established set of criteria three times per year.
2) On-sale establishments with a CUP would be referred to the Planning Commission for a CUP review, and subsequently for a modification/revocation hearing if the Commission so decided upon its review, when they exceed
established standards for each criteria to trigger such a review. 3) The standards that would trigger a referral to the Planning Commission for a CUP review and potential
modification/revocation hearing will be based on the frequency or number of incidents/violations within a stipulated timeframe.
4) The standards that would trigger a referral to the Planning Commission for a CUP review and potentially for a subsequent modification/revocation hearing are as indicated in Table 1 below.
5) The administrative review of CUPs should be conducted three times per year with an evaluation of the on-sale establishments’ activities for the prior 6-month period.
6) The standards or criteria of the CUP review system will be made readily available to all on-sale establishments with CUPs and the public via the City website and/or other appropriate media (including direct mailings) to minimize any
confusion over what standards will initiate a Planning Commission review and potential modification/revocation hearing.
7) Information from Police and Fire Department related to patterns of patronage of on-sale establishments (as indicated by investigations of intoxicated persons after incidents) and consistency with “Model House Policies” may be generally
considered by the Planning Commission as factors in whether the business is being operated responsibly and engaging in the responsible service of alcohol. This information may be considered by the planning commission, as
additional justification for holding a CUP review hearing after referral based on the criteria above has been determined and as evidence in any CUP modification/revocation hearing.

(b) Non-submittal of food to alcohol sales ratio reports in a timely manner when required by a CUP is considered a violation of the CUP condition. Reporting of the food to alcohol sales ratio required by a CUP, ABC license, or the Municipal Code may be required and considered during any modification/revocation action.
Page 17 of 92
HBPD and ABC
The Hermosa Beach Police Department (HBPD) conducts a thorough review of all police
reports related to establishments which hold a CA Department of Alcoholic Beverage
(ABC) on-sale alcohol license in conjunction with a Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
Additionally, HBPD contacts owners and managers of establishments related to any
concern(s) the Police Department may have, of issues that do not rise to CUP violation.
The Police reports are initiated by a Call for Service (CFS) or if an officer observes an
incident/violation/or contacts someone in an enforcement capacity. The CFS may result
in a report, citation, arrest, or no action may be taken. It is important to note that a CFS
or a report at a specific address does not mean an incident happened inside the address
or is directly related to a specific business; the address may simply be associated as a
landmark (identifying the location of an incident) wherein the location itself had nothing to
do with the incident.
Therefore, a CFS or report should not be assumed to be problematic or involved in the
incident as the CFS or report may have nothing to do with the specific address or location
other than used as a landmark/identifying the location of an incident which may have
occurred outside of the location.
HBPD will note the number of CFS, and Reports associated with an address, along with
the category of the reports (e.g., Drunk, Disturbance, Assault, etc.). An establishment will
not have a CUP violation charged against them, unless, in HBPD’s review process it is
determined that the establishment was complicit or clearly negligent in its actions which
results in a violation of the CUP standards.
As detailed in Attachment 2, HBPD’s statistics may have four (4) “Total” reports, of which
only three (3) are “reviewed”, which would indicate that one of the four reports has nothing
to do with the location. The number under the type of report may or may not be charged
against the establishment, based on information demonstrating the establishment’s
complicity or negligence, that would then inform a determination made by the HBPD Chief
of Police.
During the reporting period of July 1, 2024, to December 31st, 2024, there were eleven
(11) police reports and two (2) calls for service related to establishments with CUPS that
merited review by HBPD staff. Of the eleven (11) police reports reviewed, six (6) were
previously reviewed during the last CUP reporting period, as the tri-annual review
contains overlapping time periods (previous period covered March 1st, 2024, to August
31st, 2024). Additionally, there were two (2) calls for service that were reviewed, one (1)
of which were reviewed during the last period. Of the eleven reports reviewed, two were
deemed to count for CUP violations. The two calls for service were also not deemed to
count as a violation.
Attachment 2.
Page 18 of 92
As noted in Attachment 2, a joint ABC grant with Manhattan Beach Police Department
has been issued for October 2023-September 2024. Training per the grant has been
administered and there are deployments planned over the next several months.
Aka Ramen and Sushi had one report and one call for service that were evaluated. As
the Conditional Use Permit has already been revoked for this establishment, partially due
to these calls, no further action is required.
HB Coastal had two reports reviewed, one which was reviewed previously. The report
documented a private underage party that occurred at the location. Alcohol was not
actively being served at the location, but alcohol was present. This was deemed a CUP
violation.
Hennessey’s Tavern had one report and one call for service, both of which were
previously reviewed.
Hermosa Saloon had one report reviewed during the last report.
Paisanos had three reports reviewed during this period, two of which were already
reviewed in the March-August report. The additional case involved subjects inside the
business after hours, with alcohol being consumed and a sexual battery occurred. The
case is still under investigation yet has been deemed a CUP violation.
Patrick Molloy’s had one (1) case previously reviewed.
Tower 12 had two (2) cases reviewed. One incident involved a fight that began inside the
location, the parties were separated and both ejected from the establishment. The parties
crossed paths outside near parking lot A, where another physical altercation occurred.
Discussion regarding the disbursement of parties after an altercation has been discussed.
The second instance involved an employee and a patron, and the altercation appeared
to be mutual. The employee was disciplined and complaint filed to ABC at the reporting
party’s request. The reporting party also admitted being under the influence and not
desirous.
Additionally, when HBPD conducts routine patrols of establishments with ABC licenses.
If, during those patrols, an officer finds any suspicious activity in or around the premises,
they log it as a security check (Attachment 2). The suspicious activity that would warrant
it being logged as a security check would not necessarily be related to the CUP for the
respective establishment.
As part of Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and Drunk in Public arrests, HBPD officers,
to the best of their abilities, ask arrestees to tell them where they have previously been
drinking and more specifically the last place, they recall drinking. Not all contacts with
arrestees provide an opportunity to ask these questions, however, the answers are

HBPD and ABC
The Hermosa Beach Police Department (HBPD) conducts a thorough review of all police
reports related to establishments which hold a CA Department of Alcoholic Beverage
(ABC) on-sale alcohol license in conjunction with a Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
Additionally, HBPD contacts owners and managers of establishments related to any
concern(s) the Police Department may have, of issues that do not rise to CUP violation.
The Police reports are initiated by a Call for Service (CFS) or if an officer observes an
incident/violation/or contacts someone in an enforcement capacity. The CFS may result
in a report, citation, arrest, or no action may be taken. It is important to note that a CFS
or a report at a specific address does not mean an incident happened inside the address
or is directly related to a specific business; the address may simply be associated as a
landmark (identifying the location of an incident) wherein the location itself had nothing to
do with the incident.
Therefore, a CFS or report should not be assumed to be problematic or involved in the
incident as the CFS or report may have nothing to do with the specific address or location
other than used as a landmark/identifying the location of an incident which may have
occurred outside of the location.
HBPD will note the number of CFS, and Reports associated with an address, along with
the category of the reports (e.g., Drunk, Disturbance, Assault, etc.). An establishment will
not have a CUP violation charged against them, unless, in HBPD’s review process it is
determined that the establishment was complicit or clearly negligent in its actions which
results in a violation of the CUP standards.
As detailed in Attachment 2, HBPD’s statistics may have four (4) “Total” reports, of which
only three (3) are “reviewed”, which would indicate that one of the four reports has nothing
to do with the location. The number under the type of report may or may not be charged
against the establishment, based on information demonstrating the establishment’s
complicity or negligence, that would then inform a determination made by the HBPD Chief
of Police.
During the reporting period of March 1, 2024, to August 31st, 2024, there were sixteen
(16) police reports and four (4) calls for service related to establishments with CUPS that
merited review by HBPD staff. Of the sixteen (16) police reports reviewed, three (3) were
previously reviewed during the last CUP reporting period, as the tri-annual review
contains overlapping time periods (previous period covered November 1, 2023, to April
30th, 2023). Additionally, there were three (4) calls for service that were reviewed, none
of which were reviewed during the last period. Of the sixteen reports reviewed, none were
deemed to count for CUP violations. The four calls for service were also not deemed to
count as a violation.

Attachment 2.
As noted in Attachment 2, a joint ABC grant with Manhattan Beach Police Department
has been issued for October 2023-September 2024. Training per the grant has been
administered and there are deployments planned over the next several months.
American Junkie had one report which was reviewed during the last period and was not
deemed a CUP violation.
Baja Sharkeez had one report reviewed where subjects were involved in an altercation
inside the location and staff attempted to de-escalate the situation, and separated the
parties involved. The investigation concluded that the complainant was the instigator, and
the case was not refereed for prosecution. The call for service reviewed was regarding a
cell phone that was inside the establishment and the patron requested it back.
Barnacles had one case that was previously reviewed and not a CUP violation. The call
for service reviewed was a subject refusing to leave the location.
Hennessey’s Tavern had 3 reports reviewed this period. The first report had two
intoxicated subjects that were verbal with staff after being kicked out of the establishment.
Subjects were notified to not return.
The second report was a subject that was asked to leave the establishment due to their
level of intoxication. The subject attempted to return and refused entry/ The subject
returned and was aggressive toward staff.
The final report was an intoxicated subject who was laying on the floor of the restroom
and refused to leave the establishment. The subject was arrested for public intoxication,
resisting arrest and trespassing.
There was one call for service reviewed for a subject refusing to leave at 1:30 am.
Hermosa Saloon had one report and one call for service reviewed. The call was a
reporting party unhappy with the way the business was being run, and they were advised
to contact ABC if they desired to file a complaint. The one report involved a subject taking
and consuming other patrons drinks before getting into a physical altercation. The subject
was subdued and escorted out of the business.
During the reporting period, The Lighthouse had one report reviewed. During the
investigation, the victim was seen getting poked by a rose being held by another patron
and when he grabbed the rose, another patron pushed the victim, the victim then swung
at the person that pushed him, and a fight ensue. The suspect then punched the victim
knocking him unconscious. The subjects then fled the location.
Paisanos had two reports reviewed this period, and one person was involved in both
reports. The subject was involved in a physical altercation inside the business in July,
then again in August the same subject became involved with people inside the business,
Page 26 of 92
and it continued outside the business. The suspect was arrested, and the victim decided
they were non-desirous.
Patrick Molloy’s had three (3) cases reviewed, one of which was reviewed last period,
and therefore will not be recapped here. The first case involved subjects that were ejected
from the location due to a verbal argument inside. The removed subject spit in the face
of the employee and was arrested. The subject was arrested for resisting arrest, public
intoxication and battery. The City Prosecutor filed battery and resisting arrests charges.
The second case involved a restraining order violation.
One case was reviewed for Saint Rocke. A subject, pretending to be a security guard,
patted down the victim and grabbed the genitals of the victim making a joke. The subject
was located and a private person arrest for battery. The case is pending review.
Proudly serving had one report of an intoxicated subject who was passed out at the
location and was arrested for public intoxication.
HB Coastal had one report was reviewed for a physical altercation between an employee
and their superior.
Additionally, when HBPD conducts routine patrols of establishments with ABC licenses.
If, during those patrols, an officer finds any suspicious activity in or around the premises,
they log it as a security check (Attachment 2). The suspicious activity that would warrant
it being logged as a security check would not necessarily be related to the CUP for the
respective establishment.
As part of Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and Drunk in Public arrests, HBPD officers,
to the best of their abilities, ask arrestees to tell them where they have previously been
drinking and more specifically the last place, they recall drinking. Not all contacts with
arrestees provide an opportunity to ask these questions, however, the answers are
presented in Attachment 2 for the current period and Attachment 2 for the previous
period.

Staff Report No. [Report No.]
Honorable Chairperson and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning
Commission
REQUEST FOR A ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT (TA 25-01), PERTAINING TO THE
REGULATION OF TEMPORARY USES AND EVENTS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY,
AMENDING HERMOSA BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE (HBMC): 1) CHAPTER 17.04
REGARDING DEFINITIONS; 2) CHAPTER 17.28 REGARDING M-1 LIGHT
MANUFACTURING ZONE; AND 3) CHAPTER 17.42 REGARDING GENERAL
PROVISIONS, CONDITIONS AND EXCEPTIONAL USES.
CEQA: The project qualified for a Categorical Exemption per Section 15061(b)(3) of
the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines.
(Alexis Oropeza, Planning Manager)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommend the Planning Commission:
1. Find that the adoption of the proposed ordinance exempt from review under
the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”); and
2. Adopt a Resolution (Attachment 1) recommending that the City Council
adopt the proposed ordinance approving Zone Text Amendment 25-01
amending Title 17 of the of the Municipal Code pertaining to Temporary Uses
and Events.
Executive Summary:
Temporary uses and temporary events are designed to allow short-term activities and
development that may not comply with all development standards of a zone. These
temporary uses and events are facilitate redevelopment and promote local businesses.
To ensure the public health, safety and general welfare specific standards are established
for these temporary activities. Staff recommends the Planning Commission receive public
input, conduct a discussion, and recommend City Council amend Title 17 of the Hermosa
Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) pertaining to Temporary Uses and Temporary Events (TA
25-01).
Background:
In 2017, the City Council adopted PLAN Hermosa, the City’s General Plan. In 2020, the
City completed an assessment report outlining areas of Title 16 Subdivisions Ordinance
and Title 17 Zoning Ordinance of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) that need
to be revised in order to be consistent with PLAN Hermosa. In 2020, the City completed
Page 32 of 92
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 8
an assessment report outlining areas of Title 16 Subdivisions Ordinance and Title 17
Zoning Ordinance of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) requiring revisions in
order to be consistent with PLAN Hermosa. In 2021, the City launched the ZCU, and the
Planning Commission conducted a series of special meetings weighing in on the
proposed zoning changes. The ZCU was initially envisioned as a comprehensive single
update. Since then, the zoning code update has advanced in fits and starts. A number of
components have been completed as targeted updates. In June 2024, the Planning
Commission made a recommendation to the City Council regarding administrative
procedures section of the Code. And since that time has held two study sessions related
to Commercial Zones and considered the city-wide approach to rezoning.

Page 33 of 92
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 8
Meeting Date Description
November 12, 2024 City Council directed staff to address the minor special
events as an item separate from the comprehensive
zoning code update
December 16, 2024 The Planning Commission conducted a Study Session
regarding updates to temporary use and event regulations.
On November 12, 2024, in response to requests from the public, the City Council directed
staff to advance a focused zone text amendment on temporary minor special events
separate from the comprehensive zoning code update.
On December 16, 2024, the Planning Commission held a study session on temporary
uses and events and directed staff to address a number of standards including: 1) the
quantity of minor special events allowed, 2) provisions for allowing modifications or
addition of dates; 3) exempting ancillary uses from a temporary minor special event
permit; and 4) allowing appropriate parking flexibility.
Discussion:
The City acknowledges the need to allow temporary uses and events on private property
that may not fully comply with all zoning standards. These short-term activities facilitate
property redevelopment and support businesses that benefit the community. The bulk of
the temporary uses regulations are contained in HBMC Chapter 17.42 pertaining to
General Provisions, Conditions, and Exceptional Uses and are permitted as
Administrative Permits in accordance with HBMC Chapter 17.55 (Attachment 3).
Administrative permits are administered by staff and do not require a public hearing or
notification. The regulations reference non-residential zoning districts and a zoning map
is included for reference as Attachment 4.
Currently there are five separate sections of the code addressing temporary activities.
Staff recommends merging all temporary uses into a single section broadly titled as
“Temporary Uses and Minor Special Events” (Attachment 2). This change simplifies the
code and aid users, particularly those unfamiliar with the specific temporary use and
temporary event categories. The following provides a summary of proposed new section
and overview of the temporary activities and standards and limitations.
TEMPORARY USES
This section establishes a variety of short-term uses that may be permitted with approval
of an Administrative Permit. In general, the temporary uses are characterized as uses
that facilitate redevelopment of a sites and require approval to ensure impacts are
mitigated and the duration limited. The following temporary uses are proposed:
Page 34 of 92
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 4 of 8
Construction yard, located off-site from the location where construction is
occurring.
Mobile homes as a temporary residence with a valid building permit for a new
single-family home.
Storage containers in combination with a building permit
Work trailers for employees of a business with a current building permit
Other similar uses as determined by the Community Development Director
To assist users of the code, several exemptions have been added to clarify situations
where a use requires an alternative city permit. For example, garage sales on residential
properties within commercial zones require a permit in accordance with Chapter 5.44 of
the Municipal Code and on-site construction yards and temporary real estate offices are
allowed with a valid building permit.
TEMPORARY EVENTS
This section allows for four event categories that can be temporarily be used to activate
the inside or outside of a business with activities that may not typically occur at thee site
and do not comply with all development standards of the zone.
Limited Events, applicable to the Cypress District – M-1 Zone
The limited events permit was designed for indoor activities that showcase the art or
goods produced in the zone. These standards were established in 2020, and no
significant change is proposed. The following is a highlight of the key operating standards
for a limited event:
Events are limited to being held inside a building.
Events have a max duration of 3 hours and can occur up to 3 times per month,
with no more than 2 events in a 7-day period.
Amplified sound is not permitted.
Alcohol service or consumption is not allowed.
Because the standards imposed allow only for low intensity events, permit are allowed at
a greater frequency than other event types and permits are issued for up to two years at
a time.
Temporary Minor Special Events
The temporary minor special event category has the broadest applicability and requests
from the public to update the standards for this event type was the catalyst for City
Council’ direction to advance a focused Zone Text Amendment apart from the
comprehensive zoning code update.
Page 35 of 92
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 5 of 8
In response to the Planning Commission’s direction staff revised the regulations regarding
the maximum number of events permitted. Instead of setting a maximum number of
events, the new standard specifies the total number of days allowed in any 12-month
period. This change would allow give businesses greater flexibility in scheduling events.
The proposed standard would allow:
A maximum of 18 days for indoor and outdoor events, within any 12-month period.
A maximum of two events per month.
No more than three consecutive days for any event.
No less than five days between events.
The following summarizes other key parameters and standards under which a temporary
minor special event must be operated.
Provisions have been added to allow for dates to be amended as a result of
inclement weather or additional dates.
Maintains a requirement that any deviation from standards requires a Conditional
Use Permit.
An allowance for temporary sanitation facilities has been added.
Clarification that signs associated with an event must be permitted in accordance
with the sign ordinance. But staff recommends clarifying that a temporary sign be
an allowed feature of the Temporary Event instead of a separate application and
fee.
“Prohibited days” has been redesignated as “Restricted days.” The change is
intended to highlight that there are times when the Police Department may
determine events cannot be approved in the interest of public safety. In recognition,
the trends and events change over time there are no outright prohibited days.
However, the list of days that tend to be most impacted has been maintained for
public awareness as applicants plan events.
Temporary events often occur within parking lots temporarily displacing the onsite
parking. Depending on the size of the parking lot and size of the result this can
result in spill over impacts into surrounding neighborhood and potentially impede
coastal access due to increased parking demand. In consideration of those
concerns and the direction from the Planning Commission, the parking
requirement for parking has been revised to allow parking to be displaced based
on the size of the parking lot as follows:
a. All existing accessible parking must be maintained on-site in
Americans with Disabilities Act;
b. In parking lots with five or fewer spaces, no additional parking
shall be required, provided that alternative modes of transit (such
as biking, walking, ride-share, etc.) are prominently promoted as
part of any event advertising.
Page 36 of 92
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 6 of 8
c. In a parking lot with ten or more parking spaces, where more
than five spaces would be displaced, the applicant must offset
any displaced parking greater than five spaces by implementing
a temporary parking demand management plan. This plan is
subject to the review and approval of the Community
Development Director. The plan may include temporary non-
public off-site parking (with the property owner's authorization),
valet parking, shared parking, bicycle parking, ride-sharing
options, and shuttle services; and
d. Based on the characteristics and type of event the Community
Development Director may require additional parking to address
the anticipated demand generated from an event in any sized
parking lot.
Outdoor Sales and Seasonal Sale Lots
Allowances for outdoor sales events and seasonal sale lots are existing event types that
are proposed to be retained. Minor changes have been made to clarify that additional
conditions may be included and to help individuals reference another related section of
the code
Finally, to assist users of the code, an exemption from temporary minor special events
section has been added to clarify situations where an event does not require a permit or
is covered under a different permit type. An exemption for incidental business uses had
been added. This exemption delineates that uses such as parlor games, book signings,
and other similar activities are not deemed events. Incidental uses are complimentary to
a business, do not alter the intensity of the use, and do authorize a use not permitted in
the zone or requiring a discretionary approval (CUP).
Next Steps
Tentatively, this Zone Text Amendment is scheduled for the City Council meeting on
March 25, 2025. A study session on commercial uses and regulations will be conducted
at the Planning Commission’s meeting on March 18, 2025.

Subject: Proposed Changes to Zoning Code Regarding Limited Events in the M-1 District (Arts District)
Dear Planning Commission and City Staff,
As creative business owners in the Cypress Avenue Arts District, we appreciate the City’s efforts to revisit zoning codes to better support local businesses and events. However, we have significant concerns regarding the proposed changes to the Limited Events permit requirements in the M-1 district. The current zoning code, originally written 40 years ago, is outdated, overly restrictive, and punitive to well-operated businesses. Instead of adding more rules or modifying outdated ones, we urge the City to remove unnecessary restrictions to foster a thriving arts scene in Hermosa Beach.
Small events are a proven driver of economic activity for local businesses. According to the Small Business Administration (SBA), businesses that host events experience a 20-30% increase in revenue during event days. Additionally, the American Planning Association (APA) has found that arts and cultural events contribute significantly to economic development, with every $1 spent on local arts generating $5 in additional community spending. These events attract both residents and visitors, boosting foot traffic, increasing consumer spending, and fostering a vibrant local economy.
In reviewing the Draft Planning Commission Resolution and ZTA-Temporary Uses and Temporary Events (25-CDD-
037) documents, we recognize that the City's intention is to regulate events for safety and community well-being.
However, the proposed modifications remain excessively restrictive and fail to consider the needs of creative
businesses. Based on these documents, we respectfully request the following revisions:
1.
2.
3. Strike Section C(1)(b) – Outdoor Events Prohibition:
4. The prohibition of outdoor events contradicts the flexibility necessary for businesses to thrive.
Many creative businesses have private courtyards or patios where events can be responsibly
hosted without disrupting the neighborhood. The proposed restrictions
5. reduce the potential for open-air cultural activities that attract visitors and foster a dynamic community.
6.
7. 8.
9. 10. 11. Adjust Section D – Event Frequency Limits: 12. The limit of three events per month, each capped at three hours, is unnecessarily restrictive
and arbitrary. Many creative events, such as gallery openings or workshops, extend beyond three hours. The proposed limitation fails to recognize that weekly or recurring 13. events, such as a Friday-night art gathering or a paint-and-sip class, are vital revenue generators. Furthermore, national data shows that recurring events lead to stronger community
Page 79 of 92
engagement and increased local economic activity.
14.
15. 16. 17. 18. 19. Strike Section D – Prohibited Days: 20. The proposed restriction on hosting events during holidays such as Labor Day or Cinco de Mayo disproportionately affects arts-based businesses that rely on these peak periods for
financial sustainability. The 21. ZTA-Temporary Uses and Temporary Events 22. document acknowledges that such limitations are intended for high-traffic commercial areas, yet the Arts District does not experience the same congestion concerns. Removing these prohibitions will allow the Arts District to take advantage of peak business
23. periods and better serve the community. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28.
29. Adjust Section F – Event Hours to Align with the Noise Ordinance: 30. The proposed event time restriction (10:00 AM - 9:00 PM) is inconsistent with the City’s noise ordinance, which allows sound 8:00 AM - 10:00 PM. Creative businesses often operate outside traditional retail hours, making these restrictions misaligned with actual
31. business needs. Adjusting the permitted hours to align with existing city regulations would
ensure fairness and consistency across all districts. 32.
33. 34. 35. 36. 37. Strike Section G – Amplified Sound Prohibition: 38. The proposed ban on amplified sound is overly broad. Background music, microphone announcements, and small-scale performances are essential elements of creative events. Under this prohibition, even an art gallery would struggle to provide an immersive experience.
39. A more reasonable approach would be to regulate amplified sound under existing noise ordinances rather than imposing blanket restrictions. 40.
41. 42. 43.
44.
45. Adjust Section I – Simplify Permit Requirements: 46. The requirement for both a Limited Event Permit and a Temporary Minor Special Event Permit creates unnecessary administrative burdens. According to the
Page 80 of 92
47. Draft Planning Commission Resolution, 48. the goal is to streamline processes, yet requiring two permits contradicts this intention. Consolidating these permits into a single, simplified application would reduce barriers for small
businesses and promote a more business-friendly environment. 49. 50.
51. 52. 53.
54. Reconsider Alcohol Restrictions in Section I: 55. The prohibition on alcohol at events fails to recognize that many businesses operate responsibly under existing liquor licenses and ABC rules. Businesses such as Uncorked Wine Shop, which holds a liquor catering license, should be allowed to serve wine at
56. art openings without incurring a $680 special permit fee. The ZTA-Temporary Uses and Temporary
57. Events document acknowledges that alcohol service at permitted events is common practice. Aligning the regulations 58. to allow responsible alcohol service at cultural events would better reflect industry norms and
economic realities. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63.
64. Strike Section K – Parking Plan Requirements for Small Events:
65. The requirement for a parking plan is unnecessary given the characteristics of the Arts District. The
66. Plan Hermosa
67. framework emphasizes alternative transportation, and data from similar urban arts districts indicate that attendees primarily arrive via walking, biking, or rideshare services. Small-scale
events do not generate significant parking demand, making this requirement
68. an undue burden on business owners.
69.
70. 71.
Additionally, we request clarification on the definition of an “event.” Is an event defined by ticket sales? Alcohol
consumption? Many businesses rely on promotions and community engagement events to drive foot traffic, particularly
during off-peak seasons. Overly broad definitions could unintentionally capture routine business operations under
unnecessary permitting requirements. It has also lead to a culture of businesses hosting events without a permit and
Page 81 of 92
thus exacerbating the confusion. It would be better functional to be more flexible and then adjust the zoning code after
a period of time to address actual problems.
The Arts District is a vital part of Hermosa Beach’s cultural and economic landscape. Instead of imposing additional restrictive policies, we urge the City to adopt a more flexible, business-friendly approach that
supports the creative sector. We appreciate your consideration and look forward to further discussions on how to create a more vibrant and sustainable arts community in Hermosa Beach.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely, The Cypress Arts District Businesses

Dear Planning Commission and City Staff,
On behalf of the Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce Zoning Committee, we appreciate the
opportunity to provide recommendations for updating the Temporary Uses and Events Code. The
current zoning code, originally written 40 years ago, is outdated, overly restrictive, and punitive to well-
operated businesses. We recognize the City's efforts to refine event regulations to balance economic
vitality, community engagement, and public welfare. However, based on our review of the Draft
Planning Commission Resolution, along with input from business owners and stakeholders, we urge
modifications that will enhance economic activity, simplify processes, and create a more vibrant and
sustainable environment for businesses and residents.
Recommendations: C-2 Temporary Minor Special Events (TMSEP)
1. Increase Event Frequency Limits (d)
•Current Proposal: Limits events to 18 days annually, with a maximum of two per month and
a minimum of five days between events.
•Recommendation: Increase the allowable event days to a minimum of 36 days per year and
permit up to three events per month.
•Rationale: The proposed cap of 18 days is insufficient given the demonstrated economic
benefits of local events. Small-scale events have been proven to increase local business
revenue by 20-30% per event day (International Festivals & Events Association). Studies
show that cities allowing more frequent events see higher business retention rates and greater
overall economic stimulation.
2. Revise Restrictions on Event Days and Hours (e & i)
•Current Proposal: Restricted events and entertainment on select holidays (e.g., Memorial
Day, July 4th, and New Year's Eve) and limits hours to 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM.
•Recommendation: Allow businesses in designated commercial and mixed-use areas to host
events on holidays and extend event hours to align with the City’s noise ordinance (8:00
AM - 10:00 PM).
•Rationale: Removing restrictions, especially on Labor Day with the absence of Fiesta
Hermosa, allows Hermosa Beach to compete with neighboring cities for foot traffic and tourism.
3. Modify Lighting Restrictions (k)
•Current Proposal: Requires lighting to be shielded, downcast, and prohibits moving lights.
•Recommendation: Remove restrictions on "shielded, downcast...and moving lights."
•Rationale: Dynamic lighting enhances ambiance and attracts visitors while maintaining
public safety and minimal disruption.
4. Revise Parking Requirements for Small Events (q & iv)
•Current Proposal: Requires parking plans for events displacing more than five spaces.
•Recommendation:
Page 84 of 92
•The requirement for a parking plan is unnecessary and overly burdensome for
temporary minor special events. If necessary, increase the parking displacement
threshold to 15 spaces before requiring a temporary parking demand management
plan.
•Establish clear, simple guidelines for implementing parking plans, reducing ambiguity
for event organizers.
•Provide a blanket parking exemption during off-peak seasons.
•Remove the requirement to maintain ADA parking within event-designated lots.
•Clarify what would trigger additional parking requirements noted in section 2q(iv)
to eliminate uncertainty for event organizers.
•Rationale: The occasional use of small, private parking lots for events has negligible effects
on overall accessibility. The Coastal Commission has not mandated a temporary parking plan,
and many event attendees rely on walking, biking, and ridesharing. Eliminating unnecessary
requirements reduces administrative burdens while encouraging higher attendance and
increased local spending.
5. Eliminate Exceptions (s)
•Current Proposal: Any deviation from these standards and limitations requires a Conditional
Use Permit (CUP).
•Recommendation: Remove this provision for flexibility.
•Rationale: Requiring an expensive and time-consuming CUP contradicts modification
provisions (u) designed to streamline minor adjustments.
6. Modification Recommendations (u)
•Current Proposal: Modifications require reapplication and administrative fees.
•Recommendation:
•Allow event date changes within the same week without additional approval, provided
the new date does not conflict with restricted days.
•Waive or minimize fees for changes submitted at least 30 days in advance.
•Permit a single application and fee to cover multiple event programs and layout
changes.
•Rationale: Flexibility is essential due to unpredictable factors like weather or vendor
availability. Cities with minor modification allowances report higher event retention and
economic benefits.
7. Revise Revocation (v)
•Current Proposal: A 24-hour notice to revoke or modify a permit can be issued without
cause.
Page 85 of 92
•Recommendation: Require revocation or modification requests to be in writing at least 72
hours in advance, unless due to public safety concerns.
•Rationale: Short-notice revocation discourages event investment. A reasonable timeframe
ensures businesses can adjust accordingly while allowing for emergency modifications.
Outdoor Sales Events
•Current Proposal: A maximum of four (4) times in a twelve-month period for up to four (4)
days per event.
•Recommendation: Allow for flexibility for businesses to schedule sales during peak tourism or
shopping seasons (e.g. summer, holiday shopping). Only allowing four times per year is overly
restrictive and does not allow our retail businesses to thrive in our commercial districts.
•Rationale: More frequent events create a consistent draw for visitors, making the downtown
area feel more vibrant and dynamic. Aligns with best practices in placemaking – frequent, small
activations maintain energy in commercial districts.
Temporary Use Recommendations for Residences
•Current Proposal: A mobile home may be used as a temporary residence during
construction or major remodeling for up to one (1) year.
•Recommendation:
•Extend the base duration to 18 months, with six-month extensions for justified
delays.
•Expand applicability to multi-family projects.
•Streamline permit extensions to accommodate unforeseen delays.
•Rationale: A one-year timeframe is often insufficient, leading to unnecessary permit
renewals. Allowing temporary residential use in multi-family projects aligns with modern
urban development needs.
Recommendations for Application Process
•Streamline the permit process with a shorter form for reoccurring events.
•Allow refunds for applications that are denied.
•Remove to-scale site map requirements for small events.
•Remove notarized requirements for property owner sign off for reoccurring events.

We also fully support the recommendations made by the creative business owners in the Cypress
Avenue Arts District. We believe these recommendations along with those outlined above align with
the City’s goal of fostering economic development while ensuring appropriate regulations for
community safety and order. By refining the Temporary Uses and Events Code to encourage
business-friendly policies, Hermosa Beach can maintain its reputation as a vibrant destination for
commerce, culture, and community engagement.
We appreciate your time and consideration and welcome the opportunity to discuss these
recommendations further.
Sincerely,
Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce Zoning Committee

Subject: Recommendations for Temporary Special Event Permit Process. Item 7a
Dear Planning Commission,
Unfortunately, I am unable to attend tonight’s meeting in person as I will be supporting my son at the
CIF Championship basketball game—Redondo Union High School vs. Roosevelt. Go Seahawks!
As a business owner who has utilized these permits for the past 13 years, I would like to share my
comments and recommendations regarding the future of this program and process. The original intent
of the Temporary Special Event Permit was to help businesses create innovative ways to enhance
revenue. However, the current process has become overly cumbersome, discouraging participation.
In the past, businesses could easily apply and receive approval for 4-12 events per year. Now, the
process requires all dates to be submitted upfront, professionally scaled renderings (even though the
ABC only requires a hand-drawn diagram), and a non-refundable $600 fee if the permit is denied. This
contradicts the original purpose of the permit, which was to support business growth.
We respectfully request the following modifications to the staff’s recommendations:
• Increase the number of outdoor event days per year—not limited to 18 days.
• Allow events on holidays and during summer—if conflicts arise, the Chief of Police can
deny applications as needed.
• Eliminate parking requirements—this has never been an issue in the past. Hermosa
Beach is a highly walkable city where most visitors bike, walk, or visit multiple businesses in one trip.
• Permit date flexibility—businesses should be allowed to change event dates with a
nominal or no fee.
• No fee if a permit is denied—this is standard practice in neighboring cities like
Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach. The process is already costly and time-consuming for business
owners, who must also cover event expenses. If the costs become too high, businesses may opt out
altogether, reducing community engagement.
I appreciate your time and consideration of these recommendations, which aim to make the process
more business-friendly while maintaining necessary oversight.
Sincerely,
Kathleen Knoll

Dear Planning Commission and City Staff,
I appreciate the opportunity to provide recommendations for updating the Temporary Uses and Events
Code. The current zoning code, written 40 years ago, is outdated, overly restrictive, and punitive to well-
operated businesses. While I recognize the City’s efforts to refine event regulations to balance economic
vitality, community engagement, and public welfare, modifications are necessary to enhance economic
activity, simplify processes, and create a more vibrant and sustainable environment for businesses and
residents. Temporary Use Recommendations for Residences: A one-year limit is often insufficient,
requiring unnecessary permit renewals. Allowing temporary residences in multi-family projects aligns with
modern urban development needs. 1. Extend the base duration to 18 months, with six-month extensions
for justified delays (e.g. weather, compliance reviews, supply chain disruptions). 2. Expand applicability to
multi-family projects. 3. Streamline permit extensions for unforeseen delays. Temporary Minor Special
Events (TMSEP) 1. Frequency: Increase at minimum to 36 event days per year, allowing up to three per
month. Local events boost business revenue by 20-30% per event day (International Festivals & Events
Association). Cities with more frequent events experience higher business retention and economic
growth. 2. Revise Restrictions on Event Days and Hours Current proposal restricts events/entertainment
on certain holidays and limits hours to 10 AM - 9 PM. Allow events on holidays in commercial/mixed-use
areas and extend hours to 8 AM - 10 PM (aligning with the City’s noise ordinance). We need to eliminate
restrictions—especially for Labor Day, with the absence of Fiesta Hermosa—keeps the City competitive
for tourism and foot traffic. 3. Modify Lighting Restrictions Remove restrictions that prohibit lights from
being shielded, downcast, and moving. It is unnecessary and overly restrictive. 4. Revise Parking
Requirements for Small Events Current proposal creates a gap between parking lots with five (5) or fewer
spaces and ten (10) or more. In order to streamline code, remove the parking plan requirement or raise
the threshold to 15 displaced spaces. Provide a blanket exemption during off-peak seasons. Small,
temporary events have negligible impacts on accessibility. Reducing unnecessary requirements
encourages attendance and local spending. 5. Eliminate Exceptions Current proposal states deviations
from standards and deviations require Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Remove this provision. A CUP is
costly and contradicts modification provisions (u) designed to streamline minor adjustments. 6.
Modification Recommendations Current proposal require reapplication and administrative fees. Allow
date changes within the same week without additional approval. Waive/minimize fees for changes
submitted at least 30 days in advance. Permit a single application/fee to cover multiple event programs
and layout changes. Flexibility is essential due to weather and vendor availability. Cities with minor
modification allowances see higher event retention and economic benefits. 7. Revise Revocation Policy
Current proposal states permits can be revoked or modified with only 24 hours' notice without cause.
Require a written 72-hour notice with cause, except for public safety concerns. Short-notice revocation
discourages investment. A reasonable timeframe allows businesses to adjust while ensuring public safety.
Outdoor Sales Events Current: Allowed a max of four (4) times per year, up to four (4) days per event.
Recommendation: Increase flexibility to align with peak tourism/shopping seasons. Rationale: Frequent
activations keep the downtown area vibrant and competitive with best practices in placemaking.
Recommendations for the Application Process Streamline the permit process with a shorter form for
recurring events. Allow refunds for denied applications. I would also like to reiterate that I’ve read the
recommendations proposed from our M-1 Cypress District businesses and I fully support those as well. I
believe if we work together to enhance our Temporary Use and Event Regulations throughout our city we
can foster a business-friendly environment that will help our commercial areas thrive as well as promote
a better community for all. I appreciate your thoughtful consideration.
