Staff Report
REPORT 20-0675
The subject lot is located on the west side of Monterey Boulevard, north of Pier Avenue and south of
16th Street. The site can be accessed from both Monterey Boulevard and Bayview Drive. The 2,906
square foot lot is partially developed with one-condominium unit fronting Bayview Drive, while the
other half of the lot remains vacant. The subject property and surrounding lots are zoned R-3. The
neighborhood is comprised of mostly multiple-family and single-family, multi-story residential uses.
In 2011, Planning Commission approved a duplex with Planning Commission Resolution No. 11-9.
The development began construction in 2011, however, in 2015 the applicant applied for a Precise
Development Plan (PDP) amendment, Conditional Use Permit (CUP), and Tentative Parcel Map No.
73365 to modify the approved duplex under construction to be entitled as a two-unit detached
residential condominium project at 1460 Bayview Drive and 1461 Monterey Boulevard. At the time of
the 2015 application, both units had yet to be constructed and only the foundation and framing had
been completed. On April 21, 2015, the Planning Commission approved the PDP amendment, CUP,
and Tentative Parcel Map No. 73365 pursuant to Planning Commission Resolution No. 15-10 (see
attachments for PC Resolution 15-10).
One of the two-condominium units was constructed in 2015 and in 2016 a demolition permit was
issued to demolish the existing framing at 1461 Monterey Boulevard. Although the Final Parcel Map
No.73365, CC&Rs and signed resolution were approved and recorded, the building permits for Unit 1
(1461 Monterey Boulevard) were never issued for construction and the Planning entitlements have
since expired.
The applicant is requesting a CUP and PDP Amendment for a two-unit detached condominium
project to construct the second of the two condominium units previously approved in 2015. The
proposal does not include any changes to the existing unit fronting Bayview Drive. The plans for 1460
Bayview Drive (Unit 2) remain consistent with the Planning Commission approved 2015 plans.
However, 1461 Monterey Boulevard (Unit 1) has been redesigned.
The applicant proposes to provide parking access from an existing driveway approach from Monterey
Boulevard. There is an existing 10-foot wide curb cut, which was developed as a part of the 2015
condominium project. The existing curb cut resulted in a loss of one off-street parking space and as a
result the 2015 project was required to provide one additional parking space on-site resulting in a
total of six off-street parking spaces. The applicant proposes to provide two guest parking spaces
within the proposed driveway leading to the two-car garage. Thus, a total of seven off-street parking
spaces will be provided. The proposed unit will be a three level structure with a basement level that
will contain a recreational room and restroom, and a two-car garage, mudroom, bath and office at the
first level. The second level will contain three bedrooms and the third level will be dedicated to the
main living area with a kitchen, living room, dining room and a balcony.

Staff Report
REPORT 20-0675
The architectural style of the proposed unit is contemporary with exterior treatments of cement fiber
siding and wood finishes.
Analysis:
A proposal to construct a condominium project requires findings for consideration of a Precise
Development Plan, Conditional Use Permit, and the Vesting Tentative Parcel Map pursuant to
Government Code Section 66474 and as set forth in Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC)
Sections 16.08.060, 17.40.020, and 17.58.030.
CEQA Compliance:
The proposed project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as
defined in Section 15303(b), Class 3 Exemption, New Construction or Conversion of Small
Structures, because the proposal pertains to construction of limited numbers (one) of new, small
structures. More specifically, the project is comprised of construction of the second of two originally
approved condominium units in an urbanized area, totaling no more than six dwelling units.
Moreover, none of the exceptions to the Categorical Exemption apply, nor will the project result in a
significant cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place over time, or
have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances, or damage a scenic
highway or scenic resources within a state scenic highway. The site is not located on a hazardous
waste site and will not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.
Basic Zoning Standards:
The project complies with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, including the R-3 zone and
design standards for condominiums in HBMC Section 17.22.

Revised Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&R’s) have been submitted to reflect the
proposed amendments and will be reviewed by Planning Division for compliance with applicable
sections of the zoning ordinance and this entitlement, should the Planning Commission approve.
Access and Parking:
Six parking spaces were required for the 2015 approval; five parking spaces for the proposed units
and one replacement parking space on-site due to the loss of one off-street space due to the
construction of the curb cut at Monterey Boulevard. Parking for the existing unit (Unit 2) is accessed
via a concrete driveway from Bayview Drive leading to a three-car garage. There are no changes
proposed to the existing parking for Unit 2. Parking for Unit 1 will be accessed via an existing 10-foot
wide concrete driveway from Monterey Boulevard leading to a new two-car garage with two guest
parking spaces located in the driveway. Therefore, the loss of the one on-street parking space on
Monterey Boulevard will be provided on-site for Unit 1. The driveway slope profiles indicate the
driveway slope will be 11.95% at the steepest point for Unit 1; within the maximum allowed slope of
12.5% pursuant to HBMC Section 17.44.120.D.
Landscape and Green Measures:
All plants must be water conserving as required by the Hermosa Beach Water Conservation and
Drought Management Plan (HBMC Section 8.56) and Water Efficient Landscaping (HBMC Section
8.60). The landscape plan includes a mixture of drought tolerant plants including Oliver Twist Shrub,
Casa Blue Flax Lily, and Star Jasmine. In addition, the landscape plan will include a 24-inch box size
Wilson Olive tree plant in the front yard planter. The project is conditioned to ensure that all planting
materials and trees comply with HBMC Section 8.60, Water Efficient Landscaping. The landscape
plan shows that catch basins with sump pumps will be provided on-site and an automatic irrigation

system with a moisture sensor is proposed for the landscaped areas.
The project must comply with Section 8.44 Hermosa Beach Stormwater and Urban Runoff Pollution
Control Regulations. Additionally, 65% of demolition debris must be recycled, and cement used in
foundation mix design must be reduced by not less than 20%, among other requirements. Hermosa
Beach’s Electrical Code (Section 15.32) requires installation of conduit sized to accommodate solar
energy and solar thermal systems.
Compatibility with surrounding area:
The subject site is zoned R-3 Multiple-Family Residential with similar residentially zoned properties to
the north, east, south and west. Similar residential development is found in the surrounding area
comprised primarily of multi-story, multi-family residences with some single-story single-family
residences.
The proposed layout of the building is consistent with multiple-family residential buildings in the
immediate neighborhood consisting of properties with access from both the alley and Monterey
Boulevard.
Subdivision Map:
The subdivision and improvements were previously reviewed and were determined to be compliant
with criteria for approval of a subdivision map and were not likely to cause serious public health
problems within the proposed subdivision. The design of the subdivision is compatible with the
immediate residential environment.
The applicant applied for a Vesting Tentative Parcel Map No. 73365 in 2015 and in 2016 the Final
Map was approved. The approved Final Map and City Council Resolution is included as an
attachment to this report (CC Resolution 16-7032 attached).
A vesting tentative parcel map grants vested rights to proceed with a project in accordance with the
ordinances, polices and standards in effect at the time the application for approval of the vesting
tentative map is completed. The proposal to construct one of the previously approved two-unit
condominiums is on an existing 2,906 square foot lot, with a 29.09-foot lot width. The R-3 zone
requires a minimum lot size of 1,320 square feet per unit; thus allowing a maximum of two dwelling
units on the 2,906 square foot lot. The lot is similar to surrounding lot sizes and lot widths within the
same zone, and the General Plan Land Use designation for lots in the vicinity, and thus complies with
Hermosa Beach ordinances regarding subdivision of lots.
The project is conditioned upon payment of Park and Recreation (Quinby) fees for Unit 1 (1461
Monterey Boulevard) as there is inadequate area on-site for land dedication per City required Parks
and Recreation Area fees.

REPORT 20-0675
The proposal to construct one of the previously approved two-unit condominiums can connect to the
existing utilities that service the residential uses in the immediate neighborhood. In addition, the
existing utilities have the capacity to serve the proposed development. The Fire Department, Public
Works Department, and Building & Safety Division preliminarily reviewed the submitted plans, and no
major concerns were identified.
General Plan Consistency:
The subject site is located within the High Density Residential (HD) General Plan Land Use
designation area; the purpose of which is to provide a range of residential housing types to serve the
varying living accommodation needs or desires of the community. The intent of this designation is to
preserve and contribute to the inventory of diverse housing types available to residents and offer
alternatives to single-family residential development. The designation allows for a variety of high-
density building types and development patterns.
This designation provides a range of residential building formats including condominiums,
townhouses, duplex/triplex, and apartment buildings. Single-family residential is discouraged in this
designation. The appropriate density range is 25.1 to 33.0 dwelling units per acre.
The subject site is also located within the Sand Section Neighborhood character area as indicated in
the City’s General Plan, which accommodates a range of residential development types, with
neighborhood commercial services. The abundance of small, pedestrian-friendly blocks gives this
area its charm and intimate sense of community.
The future vision of this neighborhood is to enhance multi-modal connectivity and access while
preserving the building form, scale, and orientation in this neighborhood. It is appropriate to have
small-scale apartments adjacent to single-family homes in this area and an integrated mixture of
housing types is what defines the identity of the Sand Section.
Building Design and Orientation should avoid flat, box-like front façades and greater
Articulation is favorable. Garages and parking are typically accessed through alleyways or driveways
that extend behind buildings. This area may include prevailing setback requirements for front, side,
and rear setbacks that vary from block to block, but provide consistency within each block.
The proposed project is consistent with the HD Land Use designation in that it will contribute to the
residential neighborhood as a multi-family (two-unit on a single lot) development and meets the intent
of the Sand Section Neighborhood character area by providing two-units on a lot. The design of the
detached two-unit development is consistent with the Sand Section Neighborhood character area in
that the front façade of the proposed unit is designed with building articulation elements such as a
staggered building facade, vertical and horizontal architectural cement fiber paneling, large balconies

and brick siding architectural finishes. The project also complies with the allowable density range and
provides 13.3 dwelling units per acre.
Although the proposal includes parking access off of Bayview Drive and Monterey Boulevard, the
original project was approved in 2016 and the previous General Plan did not include specific
language about avoiding multiple curb cuts and points of vehicle access.
Land Use Goal 2 states, “While each neighborhood in Hermosa Beach is distinct, they each provide
a variety of housing types, densities, designs and mix of uses and services that collectively reflect the
small beach town character. The diversity of building types responds to the diversity of the city’s
population and the desire to create interesting and varied neighborhoods.”
Specifically, Land Use Goal 2 Policy 2.1 states “Neighborhoods are complete and well-structured by
encouraging, where appropriate, the following characteristics including having homes with entries
and windows facing the street.
The proposal includes a front facing entry for Unit 1 that is recessed approximately 16 feet from the
front property line. The design also provides a large front facing balcony with vertical guardrails and
large vertical windows, which encourages having “eyes on the street.”
The proposed design features implement the following PLAN Hermosa goals and many of its policies
in the Land Use policies 1.6 Scale and Context, 2.1 Complete Neighborhoods, 2.3 Balanced
Neighborhoods, 2.6 Diversity of building types and styles, 2.7 Context sensitive design, 5.1 Scale
and Massing, and 5.6 Eclectic and diverse architecture.
Summary:
The project as conditioned is consistent with the zoning code, subdivision laws and other relevant
provisions of the Municipal Code, and the site is physically suitable for the type and density of
proposed development. Therefore, staff recommends adoption of the attached resolution approving
the Conditional Use Permit and Precise Development Plan amendment for the completion of a two-
unit detached condominium project, to construct the second of the two condominium units previously
approved located at 1461 Monterey Boulevard, and determine the project is Categorically Exempt
from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

P.C. Resolution 20-XX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING, CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT AND PRECISE DEVELOPMENT PLAN AMENDMENT, FOR
THE COMPLETION OF A TWO-UNIT DETACHED CONDOMINIUM
PROJECT, TO CONSTRUCT THE SECOND OF THE TWO
CONDOMINIUM UNITS PREVIOUSLY APPROVED, LOCATED AT
1461 MONTEREY BOULEVARD AND DETERMINATION THAT THE
PROJECT IS CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT.
The Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve and order as
follows:
Section 1. An application was filed on July 2nd, 2020 by the applicant/owner William
Bagnard (Monterey Circle LLC), for development of the property located at 1461 Monterey
Boulevard, seeking approval of Conditional Use Permit Amendment 20-1 and Precise
Development Plan Amendment 20-4 for the completion of a two-unit detached condominium
project, to construct the second of the two condominium units previously approved.
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider
the subject application on October 20, 2020, at which time testimony and evidence, both written
and oral, was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission.
Section 3. The proposed project is Categorically Exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act as defined in Section 15303(b), Class 3 Exemption, New
Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, because the proposal pertains to construction of
limited numbers (one) of new, small structures. More specifically, the project is comprised of
construction of the second of two originally approved condominium units in an urbanized area,
totaling no more than six dwelling units. Moreover, none of the exceptions to the Categorical
Exemption apply, nor will the project result in a significant cumulative impact of successive
projects of the same type in the same place over time, or have a significant effect on the
environment due to unusual circumstances, or damage a scenic highway or scenic resources
within a state scenic highway. The site is not located on a hazardous waste site and will not cause
a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.
Section 4. Based on the testimony and evidence received, the Planning Commission
hereby further finds, determines and declares pertaining to the application for Precise
Development Plan pursuant to Sections 17.40.020 and 17.58.030 of the Municipal Code.
1. Distance from existing residential uses in relation to negative effects;
The subject site is zoned R-3 Multiple Family Residential with similar residentially zoned
properties to the north, east, south and west of the subject site. The subject site is large
enough to accommodate two units. Similar residential development is found in the
surrounding area comprised primarily of multi-story multi-family residences.
2. The amount of existing or proposed off-street parking in relation to actual need;
27
2
The project will provide seven off-street parking spaces. Three off-street garage parking
spaces will remain for the existing Unit 2 (1460 Bayview Drive) and are access off the alley.
The proposed Unit 1 (1461 Monterey Boulevard) will provide four off-street parking spaces
with a combination of a two-car garage and a two guest spaces located upon the driveway
from Monterey Boulevard.
3. The combination of uses proposed, as they relate to compatibility;
The detached residential condominium use is consistent and compatible with the surrounding
area because the immediate neighborhood includes multi-family residences.
4. The relationship of the estimated generated traffic volume and the capacity and safety of
streets serving the area;
The project will retain similar traffic volume generated from the project site because the
proposal will maintain the same number of units that were approved in 2015. In addition, the
proposal is consistent with the City’s R-3 allowable density and the City’s General Plan
(PLAN Hermosa) density range for the High Density land use area.
5. The proposed exterior signs and decor, and the compatibility thereof with existing
establishments in the area;
The project will not contain signage, thus will not be incompatible with the area.
Nevertheless, it is important to consider the architectural style (décor) as part of this
approval. The applicant is proposing a contemporary style, which can be found on other
properties in the neighborhood. Accordingly, the aesthetic of the building will be compatible
and complimentary to the existing residences in the area.
6. Building and driveway orientation in relation to sensitive uses, e.g., residences, schools,
churches, hospitals and playgrounds;
Existing parking for Unit 2 is accessed off of the alley and the proposed parking for Unit 1
will be accessed off of Monterey Boulevard. Surrounding properties in the area have a
similar parking arrangement with parking access from both Bayview Drive and Monterey
Boulevard and thus, the proposed building and driveway orientation will be consistent with
the building orientation of surrounding properties and the project is not anticipated to have
adverse affects on surrounding sensitive uses.
7. Noise, odor, dust and/or vibration that may be generated by the proposed use;
The project is not anticipated to create adverse impacts because the proposed use of the
property is residential, which is consistent with the use of the surrounding residential
neighborhood. Construction of the second unit of the approved two-unit condominium
project will generate temporary noise, odor, dust, and vibration, but they will be ceased when
the construction has been completed. Construction noise, which us generated, must comply
with the City’s Noise Ordinance HBMC Section 8.24.050.
8. Impact of the proposed use to the city’s infrastructure, and/or services;
There is sufficient capacity to serve the two-unit condominium development. The residential
use will have similar demand on the current infrastructure and services because the proposal
will maintain the same number of units as previously approved and as previously existed at
the subject site.
28
3
9. Adequacy of mitigation measures to minimize environmental impacts in quantitative
terms;
The project does not create adverse environmental impacts because the proposed residential
use and building design is consistent with surrounding uses and development within the
neighborhood and complies with all applicable criteria set forth in the Hermosa Beach
Municipal Code and General Plan. Nevertheless, multiple conditions of approval have been
incorporated into this action. With these conditions, any potential impacts will be mitigated.
10. Other considerations that, in the judgment of the planning commission, are necessary to
assure compatibility with the surrounding uses, and the city as a whole.
No other considerations noted.
Section 5. Based on the foregoing, the Planning Commission hereby approves the subject
Conditional Use Permit Amendment 20-1 and Precise Development Plan Amendment 20-4 for
the completion of a two-unit detached condominium project, to construct the second of the two
condominium units previously approved as set forth in Planning Commission Resolution 15-10
adding the following Conditions of Approval:
General:
1. The development and continued use of the property shall be in conformance with
submitted plans received and approved by the Planning Commission at its meeting of
October 20, 2020. Minor modifications that do not affect scale, type, location or

The subject site is located north of 3rd Court (alley), south of 3rd Street (walk street) and on the west
side of Hermosa Avenue. The 2,846 square foot lot contains three units with parking access provided
from 3rd Court. The front of the property abuts a walk street, 3rd Street.
The applicant proposes to demolish the existing triplex and construct a two-unit attached residential
duplex with an attached Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU) on the subject site. Parking for the
proposed duplex with an attached JADU will be provided via a three-foot deep and 26 feet wide
concrete driveway from 3rd Court leading to a four-car garage. There is no existing public parking
located on 3rd Court, which is an alley, and the project will thus, not result in a reduction of public
parking spaces. The duplex will front 3rd Street, a walk street with Unit A located at the front (north)
along 3rd Street and Unit B located at the rear (south) towards 3rd Court. The proposed total living
square footage of Unit A is 1,936 square feet with a 313 square foot attached JADU located at the
first floor level adjacent to the secondary living area of the main dwelling unit. The second and third
floor levels of Unit A are dedicated solely to the main unit, with a kitchen and bedrooms at the second
floor level and a loft at the third floor level. The proposed total living square footage of Unit B is 992
square feet. The second unit will be comprised of two floor levels located directly above the four-car
garage for the duplex. Two bedrooms are located at the first floor of Unit B with the main living area
located at the second floor level of the unit.
The architectural styles of both units are modern with exterior treatments of, smooth stucco and wood
paneling.
Analysis:
The property is zoned R-3 Multiple-Family Residential, and therefore must comply with the
development standards set forth in Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) Section 17.16. The
table below illustrates the project’s compliance with the R-3 development standards. The project must
also comply with access and parking standards established in HBMC Section 17.44 and landscape
and green measures established in HBMC Sections 8.44, 8.56 and 8.60 In addition, a proposal to
construct a duplex requires submittal of a Precise Development Plan application and plans for
Planning Commission review. The development must be in compliance with minimum standards of
the zoning ordinance (R-3 zone). On a case by case basis, the Planning Commission may impose
standards above the minimums designated by the zoning ordinance to improve the quality of
development and to mitigate any environmental impacts.
In considering the Precise Development Plan for any development, the Planning Commission must
consider the general criteria set forth in HBMC Section 17.58.030 for granting or conditionally

Landscape and Green Measures:
All plants must be water conserving as required by the Hermosa Beach Water Conservation and
Drought Management Plan (HBMC Section 8.56) and Water Efficient Landscaping (HBMC Section
8.60). The landscape plan includes a mixture of drought tolerant plants including Cordyline,
Kalanchoe, and Aeonium. All plant materials will be located within the City’s encroachment area
fronting the walk street (3rd Street). The landscape plan does not include landscape materials on
private property and will thus result in less than 50% permeability on-site and an infiltration system
will be required. The project is conditioned to ensure that all planting materials and trees comply with
HBMC Section 8.60, Water Efficient Landscaping. The landscape plan shows that catch basins with
sump pumps will be provided on-site and an automatic irrigation system with a moisture sensor is
proposed for the landscaped areas.
The project must comply with Section 8.44 Hermosa Beach Stormwater and Urban Runoff Pollution
Control Regulations. Additionally, 65% of demolition debris must be recycled, and cement used in
foundation mix design must be reduced by not less than 20%, among other requirements. Hermosa
Beach’s Electrical Code (Section 15.32) requires installation of conduit sized to accommodate solar
energy and solar thermal systems.
Compatibility with surrounding area:
The subject site is zoned R-3 Multiple-Family Residential with similar residentially zoned properties to
the north, east, and west and C-1 Limited Business and Residential zoned properties to the south.
Similar residential development is found in the surrounding area comprised primarily of multi-story,
multi-family residences with some single-story single-family residences.
The proposed layout of the building is consistent with multiple-family residential buildings in the
immediate neighborhood consisting of both attached and detached two-unit condominiums/ duplexes
on a lot with parking garages located off the alley.
General Criteria:
In considering the Precise Development Plan for any development, the following criteria for granting
or conditionally granting said permit shall be considered:
1. Distance from existing residential uses in relation to negative effects
The subject site is zoned R-3 Multiple Family Residential with similar residentially zoned properties to
the north, east and west of the subject site. The subject site is large enough to accommodate two
residential units and a JADU. Similar residential development is found in the surrounding area
comprised primarily of multi-story multi-family residences. Therefore, the proposed duplex with a
JADU will be consistent with surrounding residential development and will not produce negative
effects.

REPORT 20-0668
2. The amount of existing or proposed off-street parking in relation to actual need;
The proposed duplex with a JADU will provide four off-street parking spaces within a four-car garage
located off of the alley, 3rd Court. In addition, one shared guest parking space will be provided for
both units and will be located in the southwest corner of the lot. The JADU is exempt from providing
parking as established by State law and consistent with HBMC Section 17.21.030(I)(1).
3. The combination of uses proposed, as they relate to compatibility;
The proposed residential use consisting of an attached duplex with a JADU is authorized under the R
-3 zone and the residential use is consistent and compatible with the immediate neighborhood which
includes multi-family residences with C-1 Limited Business and Residential to the south.
4.The relationship of the estimated generated traffic volume and the capacity and safety of streets
serving the area;
The proposed duplex with a JADU will retain similar traffic volume generated from the project site
because the proposal will maintain the same number of units that previously existed and is consistent
with the City’s R-3 allowable density and the City’s General Plan (PLAN Hermosa) density range for
the High Density land use area.
5. The proposed exterior signs and decor, and the compatibility thereof with existing establishments
in the area;
The proposed duplex and JADU will not contain signage, thus will not be incompatible with the
surrounding area. Nevertheless, it is important to consider the architectural style (décor) as part of
this approval. The applicant is proposing a contemporary style, which can be found on other
properties in the neighborhood. Accordingly, the aesthetic of the building will be compatible and
complimentary to the existing residences in the area.
6.Building and driveway orientation in relation to sensitive uses, e.g., residences and schools;
Parking for both units will be accessed off of the alley. The front of the building is located along a walk
street. Thus, the proposed building and driveway orientation will be consistent with the building and
driveway orientations of surrounding properties and the project is not anticipated to have adverse
affects on surrounding sensitive uses.
7. Noise, odor, dust and/or vibration that may be generated by the proposed use;
The proposed duplex and JADU is not anticipated to create adverse impacts because the proposed
use of the property is residential, which is consistent with the use of the surrounding residential
neighborhood. Construction of the duplex and JADU will generate temporary noise, odor, dust, and
vibration, but they will be ceased when the construction has been completed. Construction noise,
which us generated, must comply with the City’s Noise Ordinance HBMC Section 8.24.050.
8. Impact of the proposed use to the city’s infrastructure, and/or services;
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 5 of 8
powered by Legistar™88
Staff Report
REPORT 20-0668
There is sufficient capacity to serve the proposed duplex and JADU. The proposed residential use
will have similar demand on the current infrastructure and services because the proposal will
maintain the same number of units from the existing subject site.
9. Adequacy of mitigation measures to minimize environmental impacts in quantitative terms;
The proposed duplex with an attached JADU does not create adverse environmental impacts
because the proposed residential use and building design is consistent with surrounding uses and
development within the neighborhood and complies with all applicable criteria set forth in the
Hermosa Beach Municipal Code and General Plan. Nevertheless, multiple conditions of approval
have been incorporated into this action. With these conditions, any potential impacts will be
mitigated.
10. Other considerations that, in the judgment of the planning commission, are necessary to assure
compatibility with the surrounding uses, and the city as a whole.
No other considerations noted.
CEQA Compliance:
The proposed project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as
defined in Section 15303(b), Class 3 Exemption, New Construction or Conversion of Small
Structures, because the proposal pertains to construction of limited numbers (two) of new, small
structures with an accessory structure. Section 15303 specifically lists the construction of
appurtenant accessory structures as examples of activity that expressly falls within this exemption.
More specifically, the project is comprised of multi-family residential structures in an urbanized area,
totaling no more than six dwelling units. Moreover, none of the exceptions to the Categorical
Exemption apply, nor will the project result in a significant cumulative impact of successive projects of
the same type in the same place over time, or have a significant effect on the environment due to
unusual circumstances, or damage a scenic highway or scenic resources within a state scenic
highway. The site is not located on a hazardous waste site and will not cause a substantial adverse
change in the significance of a historical resource.
General Plan Consistency:
The proposed attached duplex with an attached JADU is located within the High Density Residential
(HD) General Plan Land Use designation area; the purpose of which is to provide a range of
residential housing types to serve the varying living accommodation needs or desires of the
community. The intent of this designation is to preserve and contribute to the inventory of diverse
housing types available to residents and offer alternatives to single-family residential development.
The designation allows for a variety of high-density building types and development patterns.
This designation provides a range of residential building formats including condominiums,
townhouses, duplex/triplex, and apartment buildings. Single-family residential is discouraged in this
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 6 of 8

REPORT 20-0668
designation. The appropriate density range is 25.1 to 33.0 dwelling units per acre.
The subject site is also located within the Walk Street Neighborhood character area as indicated in
the City’s General Plan, which accommodates a range of beach side residential development and
neighborhood commercial services within a linear street network. The walk streets that provide beach
access from Hermosa Avenue out to the Strand are a feature unique to this beachfront residential
area.
The future vision of this neighborhood includes maintaining the high quality pedestrian connections
through the walk streets and retains the form, scale, and orientation of buildings in the area. Most
parcels in the Walk Street Character area have access on both a walk street and an alleyway.
Building Design and Orientation should provide porches, patios or decks orientated towards the walk
street with parking being provided garages accessed through the alleyway.
The proposed project is consistent with the HD Land Use designation in that it will contribute to the
residential neighborhood as a multi-family (two-unit on a single lot) with a JADU development and
meets the intent of the Walk Street Neighborhood character area by providing two-units and a JADU
designed with garages and parking set behind the building and access through the alleyway. The
design of the attached duplex and JADU is consistent with the Walk Street Neighborhood character
area in that the front building façade includes two balconies fronting the walk street. Additional the
extension of the front yard through the use of the City’s encroachment area adds to the pedestrian
connection and scale of the neighborhood.
Land Use Goal 2 states, “While each neighborhood in Hermosa Beach is distinct, they each provide
a variety of housing types, densities, designs and mix of uses and services that collectively reflect the
small beach town character. The diversity of building types responds to the diversity of the city’s
population and the desire to create interesting and varied neighborhoods.”
Specifically, Land Use Goal 2 Policy 2.1 states “Neighborhoods are complete and well-structured by
encouraging, where appropriate, the following characteristics including having homes with entries
and windows facing the street.
The proposed design features implement the following PLAN Hermosa goals and many of its policies
in the Land Use policies 1.6 Scale and Context. 2.1 Complete Neighborhoods, 2.3 Balanced
Neighborhoods, 2.6 Diversity of building types and styles, 2.7 Context sensitive design, 5.1 Scale
and Massing, and 5.6 Eclectic and diverse architecture.
Summary:
The project as conditioned is consistent with the zoning code, and other relevant provisions of the
Municipal Code, and the site is physically suitable for the type and density of proposed development.

Meeting: Planning Commission Virtual Meeting
Item: 8. REPORT 20-0668 PDP 20-6 Precise Development Plan for a three-story attached
duplex with an attached Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU) located at 24 3rd Street and
determination that the project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA).
eComment: Dear Commissioners: I own 34 3rd Street directly to the east of the permit applicant.
I am submitting some observations and questions relative to the pending permit and planning
analysis. In reviewing the proposed resolution and its findings, it is immediately apparent that the
neighborhood conditions described in the proposed resolution differ markedly from the reality of
3rd Street. The proposed resolution describes "similar residential zoned properties" (to the R3
"triplex" (duplex with JADU) The two largest properties - 18 3rd Street and 17 3rd Street - directly
next door and across the street from the subject property-are zoned R1 and not multi-family as
intimated in the proposed resolution. The rest are quaint, Old Hermosa in the classic
Craftsman/Cape Cod styles, completely dissimilar to the modern style proposed. Importantly,
each of the properties are occupied in SFR manner by families, not stuffed with multiple renters
as is apparently the design here. In a nutshell, 3d Street is predominantly comprised of duplexes
being occupied by SFR family dwellers except for the two largest properties which are both
traditional R1 SFR dwellings. 28 3rd Street - "R3 Triplex" (misleading) We don't know how and
when 28 3d Street achieved R3 status, but we do know that it a duplex, not a triplex. A third unit
was bootlegged into the existing garage and is apparently being used as the vehicle to justify a
"JADU" unit in the rear of the permit applicant's property. This was clearly not the original intent
of any planners or zoning. If this is the game, why wouldn't everyone just illegally convert their
garage in their duplex and then submit plans for a triplex based on the bootlegged converted
garage? Our 34 3rd Street Position I expect many of the surrounding neighbors to voice
opposition to this plan. From our end, we don't want to interfere with our neighbors' plans to build
a new home. And we admire the talented architect who they have engaged. The rendering
reflects a classic Tomaro property - which would look amazing in the Hill Section. It seems
patently inconsistent with the flavor of the neighborhood and will clearly impose restrictions and
impediments to the use and enjoyment of the area. Setback The plans appear to propose

deviation from established setback on the entirety of 3rd Street. If you stand on Hermosa Ave
and look towards the beach there is complete congruity in setback on the front, walk street side.
We oppose any deviation from the prevailing setback. It will block our view and the view of other
neighboring properties and is overreaching Background of 343rd Street I purchased 34 3d Street
as an investment in 2017 with the plan of taking it down and building a new structure. It was a
productive duplex rental but an aesthetic land survey and preliminary architectural concepts
initiated. I am not anti-development, I do it myself and respect a property owner's right to build on
his land -responsibly and respecting the prevailing living standards. Not long into my ownership,
it became apparent to my family that 3rd Street was a quaint residential walk street with tidy little
homes. This prompted a suspension and change of plans to tastefully rehabilitate 34 3rd Street. I
bring all this up relative to the proposed MdMansion, the proposed setback deviation, and the
bootlegged JADU. I believe the right thing to do is to moderate the proposed plan to make it
more consistent with the prevailing living standards. Hermosa does not need multi family on 3rd
Street. Parking is already impossible, drug addicts and criminals roam the alleys 24/7 and
burglaries are on the rise. A tasteful duplex within the prevailing setback is achievable and more
appropriate. What happened to keep Hermosa Hermosa? In the event the Commission
disagrees and is inclined to allow this project to move forward as proposed, I alternatively
propose that the setback conditions be made global in nature to extend to the affected
properties. It is patently unfair to allow one singular property to jut out beyond all the others,
hogging the view and impeding the view and serenity of other property owners. If the Planning
Commission's vision for 3rd Street walk-street is truly multi-family, I too am going to resurrect .I
am confident that each of the 3rd Street neighbors will agree with this assessment. This is not a
multi-family, density-laden street; this is a quaint, quiet Hermosa Beach walk street. The pending
plans should be modified to reflect the prevailing setback and living standards. We wish the
Smiths and their capable architect good luck and hope that a friendly and sensible resolution will
be achieved. Respectfully Brian & Gabriela Heffernan 34 3rd Street

eComment: Dear Commissioners,, I am writing with concern and opposition to the planned
structure at 24 3rd St., 2 doors down from where I live. We live on a beautiful small little street
and the structure that is being proposed is as it is being given to you going against the very
integrity of our street. While I understand wanting to build a nice New home and I am fully in
support of that the plans as submitted our in accurate to such an accommodation. Upon reading
the plans there is mention of it not having any impact on "Longfellow". This obviously is an
oversight by the architect and a plan plucked from another build however this is concerning to
me as that means that they did not accurately assess the site and draw new plans for this site as
Long fellow has nothing to do with a property down here. so this oversight to me is concerning
and I think that plans need to be looked at more closely and gone over with a fine tooth comb.
Also the sewer is crushed and leaking and this is a known problem to the city and until that is
resolved no structure should be allowed to be built as this could be a huge liability with raw
sewage flowing into two houses. Please take a close look at these plans and the surrounding
properties so that adjustments can be made. Respectfully, Kathie Stemig

REPORT 20-0626
Honorable Chair and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission
Regular Meeting of October 20, 2020
TEXT 20-02 - Consideration of a Text Amendment to amend HBMC Chapter 17.44 Off-street parking
to allow the use of mechanical vehicle lifts as a method to provide required parking, adopt proposed
definition of “mechanical vehicle lift,” and determination that the project is categorically exempt from
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Recommended Action:
1.Adopt the attached resolution recommending the City Council adopt a text amendment to
HBMC Chapter 17.44 Off-street parking to allow the use of mechanical vehicle lifts as a
method to provide required parking, adopt proposed definition of “mechanical vehicle lift,” and
determination that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA).
Background:
On February 21, 2017, the Planning Commission approved a parking plan at 260 31st Street, allowing
a proposed parking arrangement, which uses alternative methods, including a mechanical parking lift
and compact sized guest stalls. Although the vehicle lift was initially approved in error by the City and
approved post-construction by the Planning Commission, the Planning Commission did not want to
establish a precedent. The Commission, however, agreed to monitor the 260 31 st Street residence
and use it as a case study for a potential future zoning code amendment.
On February 13, 2020, the Planning Commission received a letter from a resident requesting the
Commission initiate a text amendment to allow vehicle lifts as a mechanism for satisfying parking
requirements. In response, the Planning Commission requested staff place the item on a future
agenda so they can discuss its advantages and disadvantages.
On May 19, 2020, staff presented different types of vehicle lifts, the relevant Hermosa Beach zoning
code sections, and how other cities are addressing vehicle lifts in their city. Staff proposed specific
questions to the Planning Commission for feedback on what the City should and should not regulate.
After discussing the application of vehicle lifts in Hermosa Beach, the Planning Commission agreed
that vehicle lifts should be allowed in all zones (residential, commercial, manufacturing, etc.).
However, the Planning Commission requested that staff provide further research into which zones or
specific lots vehicle lifts should be allowed to satisfy parking requirements in and with what level of

ministerial or discretionary review. The Planning Commission also asked staff to clarify vehicle lifts
allowed in setbacks and whether or not a third vehicle could block the vehicle lift.
The Planning Commission agreed to initiate a text amendment and approved P.C. Resolution 20-12
initiating a text amendment to Title 17, entitled “Zoning” of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code
allowing the use of mechanical vehicle lifts; and determined that the action was exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
On August 18, 2020 Staff presented additional research for Commission feedback. At this meeting
the Planning Commission directed staff to draft a text amendment and present the item at the next
meeting. This report summarizes the proposed text amendment for the Planning Commission to
consider and recommend to the City Council.
Analysis:
The following analysis summarizes the proposed text amendments:
Add New Definition to HBMC Section 17.44.010. The Zoning Code does not currently include
definition for “Mechanical vehicle lift.” The proposed definition is consistent with the additional
proposed text amendments.
“Mechanical vehicle lift” means a mechanical system that lifts or descends one vehicle to
make space available to park a second vehicle in a vertical tandem fashion.
Modify HBMC Section 17.44.210. The Zoning Code does not include mechanical vehicle lifts as a
factor to be considered in a Parking Plan.
Add New HBMC Sub-Section 17.44.240 (Mechanical vehicle lift).The Zoning Code does not set
standards for mechanical vehicle lifts. The proposed text amendment is provided below:
17.44.240 Mechanical vehicle lifts
A.Building Permit Required
1.A building permit is required for the installation of a mechanical vehicle lift system.
2.Mechanical vehicle lifts may be permitted to meet off-street parking spaces requirements in HBMC
Section 17.44.020 (Off-street parking-Residential uses)on residential lots equal to or smaller than 2,100
square feet.
3.On residential lots greater than 2,100 square feet,mechanical vehicle lifts are permitted where the
parking space(s)provided by the mechanical vehicle lift(s)is/are in excess of the minimum number of
required parking spaces and are subject to requirements of this Section.
B.Parking Plan Required.On residential lots greater than 2,100 square feet and in all other zones,mechanical
vehicle lifts are allowed to meet the off-street parking space requirements established in HBMC Sections
17.44.020 and 17.44.030 with approval of a Parking Plan,in compliance with HBMC Section 17.44.210 (Parking

REPORT 20-0626
Plan).
C.Screening. Mechanical vehicle lifts shall be located only within a fully enclosed garage.
D.Vertical Clearance.A vehicle lift may only be used to store two (2)vehicles vertically where a minimum vertical
height clearance from the garage floor to the garage ceiling plate or,in the case of a lift installed below the
garage floor,from the below grade floor to the garage ceiling,is a minimum of twelve (12)feet clear of
obstructions.
E.Safety
1.All equipment shall be listed and rated by a testing agency recognized by California (i.e. UL).
2.A mechanical vehicle lift shall be permitted only if it is operated with an automatic shutoff safety device
and is installed in accordance with manufacturer specifications.
3.A mechanical vehicle lift shall be equipped with a key locking mechanism.
4.Mechanical vehicle lifts shall provide a manual override to access or remove vehicles from the vehicle lift
in the event of a power outage.
F.Miscellaneous
1.Mechanical vehicle lifts shall not be utilized to meet required guest parking.Guest parking shall remain
open and accessible at all times.
2.In buildings that are nonconforming to parking,where fewer parking spaces are provided than required
by HBMC Sections 17.44.020 and 17.44.030,the number of at-grade parking spaces shall not be
reduced.
3.Standards in HBMC Chapter 17.44 which are not specifically stated in and do not contradict this Section
still apply.
Environmental Determination:
Modifications to the Zoning Code are considered a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA);
however, the activity of recommending the text amendment to City Council is exempt pursuant to CEQA Guideline
Section 15061(b)(3), which states that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant
effect on the environment. The proposed text amendment serves to establish general standards for mechanical vehicle
lifts. Individual projects that are subject to the zoning code would still require individual review for conformance with
CEQA. Therefore, the proposed amendment is exempt from CEQA.
General Plan Consistency:
This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan.
Relevant Policies are listed below:
PLAN Hermosa encourages “a parking system that meets the parking needs and demand of residents, visitors, and
employees in an efficient and cost-effective manner” (Mobility, Goal 4). While vehicle lifts are not specifically mentioned in
this Goal, that plan does say that innovative parking supply solutions will be used to meet the parking demand in the City.
The Pacific Coast Highway Corridor’s is the only section of the Plan that specifically mentions vehicle lifts as means for
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 3 of 4
powered by Legistar™137
Staff Report
REPORT 20-0626
easing parking demand in the City. Policy 6.8 (Balance pedestrian and vehicular circulation) requires new development
along corridors to “encourage the use of systems to increase parking lot efficiency, such as mechanical lift systems or
occupancy sensors.” Parking guidelines in residential portions do not have such requirements. However, the General
Plan encourages off-street residential parking to be oriented toward to the alley to reduce curb cuts and disruptions to the
pedestrian realm. Limited curb cuts are an effective way to ensure on-street parking is available. The use of mechanical
vehicle lifts may result in more innovate building and site designs where the vertical stacking of vehicles may lend to more
narrow driveway approaches and less hardscape on-site. This would result in more permeable surface area and sites
providing more open space.
Summary:
Due to the unique lot configurations and conditions that exist in Hermosa Beach, such as small lot sizes, half lot
conditions, lots with significant slopes, vehicle access from narrow alleyways and other site constraints, finding unique
solutions to providing parking on-site would be beneficial. Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the
attached resolution recommending the City Council adopt a text amendment to HBMC Chapter 17.44 Off-street parking to
allow the use of mechanical vehicle lifts as a method to provide required parking, adopt proposed definition of
“mechanical vehicle lift,” and determination that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA).

P.C. RESOLUTION 20-XX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING
THE CITY COUNCIL ADOPT A TEXT AMENDMENT TO TITLE
17, ENTITLED “ZONING” OF THE HERMOSA BEACH
MUNICIPAL CODE TO ALLOW THE USE OF MECHANICAL
VEHICLE LIFTS AS A METHOD TO PROVIDE REQUIRED
PARKING, AND ADOPT THE PROPOSED DEFINITION OF
“MECHANICAL VEHICLE LIFT”; AND DETERMINING THAT
THE ACTION IS EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA).
The Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve, and order as
follows:
SECTION 1. Although the Zoning Code does not prohibit the use of mechanical lifts,
they cannot be utilized to meet minimum parking requirements. The City has received requests
from property owners to allow vehicle lifts to be counted towards meeting minimum parking
requirements.
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission has considered the proposed text amendment
amending various sections of Title 17 entitled “Zoning” of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code
(HBMC) to allow the use of mechanical vehicle lifts (See Exhibit B).
SECTION 3. Applicable law requires the Planning Commission to notice and hold a
public hearing on the amendment and, following such hearing, to render a decision in the form
of a written recommendation to City Council pursuant to HBMC Section 17.66.100.
SECTION 4. The Planning Commission held a meeting on May 19, 2020 to consider
the use of mechanical vehicle lifts to count towards parking minimums and approved P.C.
Resolution 20-12 initiating the text amendment process. The Planning Commission held a
meeting on August 18, 2020 to further discuss the text amendment options and directed staff to
draft the proposed text amendment to be presented at the next Planning Commission Meeting.
SECTION 5. The Planning Commission held a public hearing concerning the
amendment on October 20, 2020. Notice was published and provided as required by law.
SECTION 6. The Planning Commission finds that the proposed amendment is consistent
with the general objectives, principles, and standards of the General Plan (PLAN Hermosa).
SECTION 7. Modifications to the Zoning Code are considered a project under the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA); however, the activity of recommending the text
amendment to City Council is exempt pursuant to CEQA Guideline Section 15061(b)(3), which
states that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect
on the environment. The proposed text amendment serves to establish general standards for
152
2
mechanical vehicle lifts. Individual projects that are subject to the zoning code would still
require individual review for conformance with CEQA. Therefore, the proposed amendment is
exempt from CEQA.
SECTION 8. The Planning Commission hereby recommends the City Council approve
and adopt the proposed text amendment.

REPORT 20-0674
Honorable Chair and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission
Regular Meeting of October 20, 2020
Planning Commission consideration, review, and recommendation to City Council regarding the
City’s Limited Live Entertainment Pilot Program set to expire December 2020.
Applicant: City of Hermosa Beach
Recommended Action:
1.Review the Limited Live Entertainment Permit Pilot program and provide direction for one of
the following recommendations to the City Council:
a)Modify Limited Live Entertainment Permits and set a public hearing to consider
necessary Text Amendments; OR
b)Extend Limited Live Entertainment Permits for two more years; OR
c)Continue Limited Live Entertainment Permits permanently; OR
d)Terminate the Limited Live Entertainment Permits program.
2.Set a public hearing to consider Text Amendments for Planning Commission to recommend to
the City Council regarding Limited Live Entertainment Permits.
Background:
The initial request for a Short-Term Entertainment Permit (STEP) was proposed by local advocacy
group, THRIVE Hermosa. The stated goal was for a simple, inexpensive permit to allow low impact,
family-friendly entertainment in order to increase business during off-peak hours in all commercial
zones.
At the June 25, 2018 Planning Commission meeting, staff presented a report that summarized a
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 1 of 5
powered by Legistar™169
Staff Report
REPORT 20-0674
proposal prepared by THRIVE Hermosa that would allow local commercial businesses to offer low
impact entertainment options such as games, acoustic music and open mic during “off-peak hours”
without requiring the business operators to have to go through a time-consuming and more
expensive approval process such as the existing Temporary Minor Special Event Permit and/or the
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process. Representatives of THRIVE Hermosa addressed the
Commission and answered several questions by the Planning Commission.
Several ideas and issues were raised by the Planning Commission during the discussion, including
that “Entertainment, Limited Live” be clearly defined; address noise and other possible negative
impacts on surrounding properties; the application process to include descriptions of the proposed
types of activity, days and hours and other information; the permit should be inexpensive and
processed at staff level; permit should include conditions to address potential impacts of proposed
activities; and businesses should be able to advertise permitted entertainment activities.
At the conclusion of the meeting, the Planning Commission directed staff to present a conceptual
overview to allow a short term, low impact entertainment option for businesses through an easy, cost
effective permit process.
At the August 21, 2018 Planning Commission meeting, staff presented possible amendments to the
Zoning Code that would allow Limited Live Entertainment Permits for local businesses seeking to add
low impact entertainment. The Planning Commission conceptually agreed with a proposed new
definition of “Entertainment, Limited Live” as an accessory use to be a simple, low cost permit with
standards and conditions limiting number of performers, defined hours and noise minimizing criteria,
through a one-year permit approval and annual renewal process.
At the conclusion of the meeting, the Planning Commission directed staff to set a Public Hearing to
consider a Zone Text Amendment for a new Limited Live Entertainment Permit for recommendation
to the City Council.
At the September 18, 2018 meeting, the Planning Commission considered TA 18-2 Text Amendment
that would add a short term and low impact entertainment option as an accessory use to businesses
located in the City’s commercial zones through a simple and cost effective permitting process,
including proposed definitions and standards for proposed Limited Live Entertainment Permit, and
determination that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of a Limited Live Entertainment Permit through
adoption of Resolution 18-25, and requested Planning Commission review of Limited Live
Entertainment Permit after 18 months, including possible extension of any 2-year permits issued
during this time and modifying, continuing, or terminating the program.
At its October 23, 2018 meeting, the City Council adopted Ordinance 18-1388
For TA 18-2 Text Amendments to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Title 17 Regarding Definitions
and Standards for Live Entertainment and Limited Live Entertainment for the purpose of adding a low
impact entertainment option as an accessory use to business in commercial zones, as recommended
by the Planning Commission.
A comparison of related permit processes is provided as an attachment to this report.

REPORT 20-0674
Analysis:
Since the ordinance became effective on December 13, 2018, only one Limited Live Entertainment
permit has been issued on June 12, 2019 for The Deck, located at 1272 The Strand. There were
other permit inquiries, but requests to alter existing, approved, floorplans were seen as a deterrent to
potential permit issuance. The owner of The Deck stated that the Limited Live Entertainment Permit
allowed the business to provide live music once or twice a month before the pandemic, usually during
slow nights or after a local volleyball tournament, for example, but has been limited to any
entertainment since the pandemic began in March 2020. The pandemic has affected the possibility of
further application requests since that time. The business owner suggested that a later hour of 10:00
p.m. would be preferable than the end of entertainment condition of 9:00 p.m. since patrons are
commonly eating dinner at that time. Due to the low impact premise of the Limited Live Entertainment
Permit, no change in standards or limitations are recommended should the Planning Commission
choose to continue the subject Limited Live Entertainment Permits.
The Police Department and Code Enforcement have reviewed records for the permitted address and
have found no violations or complaints related to limited live entertainment.
TA 18-2 established Limited Live Entertainment Permits in the C-1, C-2 and C-3 commercial zones
and specific plan areas which allow C-1, C-2 and C-3 uses ; it does not apply to non-commercial
zones, including the M-1 Light Manufacturing zone.
Subsequently, the Planning Commission and City Council approved a similar low-impact Limited
Events permit in the Cypress District M-1 Light Manufacturing Zone with appropriate standards and
limitations. This new Limited Events permit in the Cypress District was effective August 13, 2020,
though no permits can be considered at this time due to the pandemic health orders.
One potential revision to the Limited Live Entertainment Permit, as discussed by the Planning
Commission on September 18, 2018, would be consideration of extending the current two-year
permit. Administrative Permits, such as the Limited Live Entertainment Permit, may be revoked by
the Community Development Director if standards and limitations are not met under Chapter
17.55.070.
The text amendments to the Zoning Code allowed for the creation of the Limited Live Entertainment
Permit with standards and limitations, addition of the new definition for Limited Live Entertainment,
and minor amendments of the existing definition for Live Entertainment for clarification of both
definitions. Details of the code changes approved through TA 18-2 Text Amendment are fully included
in the attached Ordinance 18-1388 approved by City Council October 23, 2018.
Need for New Text Amendment:
Though the text amendments approved through TA 18-2 were established by ordinance and
approved by City Council, at the Planning Commission’s request, the City Council approved Limited
Live Entertainment Permits as a two-year pilot program as indicated in the Zoning Code in italics
below.

B. Administrative Permit Required.
1. Limited live entertainment allowed pursuant to this section may be permitted with an
administrative permit pursuant to Chapter 17.55
<https://www.codepublishing.com/CA/HermosaBeach/> in the C-1, C-2 and C-3 zones. No
permit term shall extend past two (2) years from the effective date of the ordinance codified in
this section.
In addition to the removal of the “two-years from the effective date of the ordinance” reference, the
Planning Commission should determine whether the two-year Limited Live Entertainment Permit term
is appropriate or if the permit term should be extended to the life of the business, as discussed at the
September 18, 2018 Planning Commission meeting.
Based on the direction of the Planning Commission, Staff will prepare a resolution for consideration
at a Planning Commission public hearing meeting. The resolution will provide recommendations to
the City Council regarding the Limited Live Entertainment Permit text amendments.
General Plan Consistency:
PLAN Hermosa (the City’s combined General Plan and Local Coastal Program) was adopted in
August 2017. The Text Amendment is consistent with the PLAN Hermosa vision to support our
vibrant local economy and the Land Use policies:
·LU 1.4 Diverse Commercial Areas. Promote the development of diversified and unique
commercial districts with locally owned businesses and job- or revenue-generating uses.
·LU 1.7 Compatibility of Uses. Ensure the placement of new uses does not create or
exacerbate nuisances between different types of land uses.
·LU 2.9 Neighborhood-serving retail. Support the retention of existing neighborhood-serving
retail and services in key locations throughout the city.
·LU 3.3 Diverse retail and office centers. Provide incentives to transform existing single-use
commercial properties that are accessible into retail destinations by adding a diversity of uses,
providing new pedestrian connections to adjacent residential areas, reducing the visual
prominence of parking lots, making the centers more pedestrian-friendly and enhancing the
definition and character of street frontage and associated streetscapes.
Environmental Analysis:
The project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to California
Public Resources Code Section 21080(b)(1), because CEQA does not apply to ministerial projects
proposed to be carried out or approved by public agencies. The project is statutorily exempt from
CEQA in that it allows for approval of limited live entertainment within approved businesses only.
Additionally, the zone text changes are Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061 of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15061 states that
CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the

effect on the environment because the zone text amendments will create a standard for limited live
entertainment permits.

REPORT 20-0673
Honorable Chair and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission
Regular Meeting of October 20, 2020
Receive Tri-Annual Report for On-Sale Alcoholic Beverage Conditional Use Permits
Recommended Action:
Receive and file the report for informational purposes.
This report covers the period from March 1 to August 31, 2020. Based on the information in the
report, one establishment has reached the “Standard Initiating Planning Commission Review,” as
three incidents/violations related to CUP and Health Department compliance occurred during this
reporting period.
Background:
Since 2017 the tri-annual reviews of on-sale alcoholic beverage establishments includes the two-step
process of providing an informational report before scheduling a hearing. The Process and
Standards, updated in 2019, is Attachment 1.
Changes to the process and reporting for this review, recommended by the Planning Commission,
were approved by the City Council in March 2019, and include reporting and conducting the review
three times a year. This is the third report in 2020 and covers the prior 6 months. The hearing to
discuss and evaluate this report and determine next steps for the establishment that has met the
standard to initiate further review will be at the next Planning Commission Meeting, Tuesday
November 17, 2020.
The establishments required to prepare food to alcohol ratio reports for the first half of 2020 are
included in this report. The next report will be presented in February 2021 and will cover the period
between July 1 and December 31, 2020.
In late March, 2020 the LA County Department of Public Health ordered the closure of non-essential
businesses which included all bars and restaurants. Under the LA County Health order, restaurants
were still permitted to serve take-out orders and alcohol to go provided it was served in sealed

REPORT 20-0673
containers with a food order.
The regulatory relief by the ABC clearly stated “Further, such beverages may not be consumed in
public or in any other area where open containers are prohibited by law.” HBMC 17.40.080(a)(2)
states “The business shall prevent loitering, unruliness and boisterous activities of the patrons
outside the business or in the immediate area.” Considering the requirements of the ABC regulatory
relief and the requirements of the HBMC, it is the responsibility of each business to ensure that their
patrons do not consume to-go alcohol in the immediate area.
On May 20, 2020, the LA County Department of Public Health, allowed limited re-openings of
restaurant seating in in outdoor locations only, and continuation of the allowance for take-out orders
of food and alcohol.
Analysis:
Police Reports and ABC Activity:
The Police Report includes a thorough summary of approach to reporting incidents, and their review
and statistics related to each location.
For the reporting period of March 1 and August 31, 2020, the Police Department highlighted the
following violations which are considered CUP violations for the purpose of this report:
Barnacles Bar and Grill, 837 Hermosa Avenue:
·Violation of the County Health order on 4/25/20 by allowing patrons to consume alcohol on the
patio, a practice for which they had been previously warned. This is separate from the later
closure by the County Health Department.
·Violation of HBMC 17.40.080 on 5/13/20 when several patrons we seen drinking in front of the
location.
The Deck, 1272 The Strand:
·Violation of HBMC 17.40.080 on 5/16/20 when several patrons were seen drinking in the alley.
The business had placed several chairs and tables in the alley adjacent to their back door. The
business brought the furniture inside after being contacted.
Silvio’s, 20 Pier Avenue:
·Violation of HBMC 17.40.080 on 5/10/20 when several patrons were seen drinking in front of
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 2 of 6

the business.
Slaters 50/50, 11 Pier Avenue:
·Slaters 50/50 violated HBMC 17.40.080 on 5/10/20 when several patrons were seen drinking
in their parking lot.
Any single incident may not rise to the level of a citation of the business if they can immediately
correct the violation. However, repeated or egregious violations, over the course of several weeks or
months should be used administratively and reported as CUP violations to gain and maintain
compliance. These violations should also be considered in the context of the multiple changes
presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Occupant Load:
The threshold to trigger review is one (1). Code Enforcement routinely checks on-sale
establishments and did not report occupant load violations during the review period. Due to the
Coronavirus pandemic, most establishments were either closed completely or obtained permits for
temporary outdoor dining areas during this reporting period.
No citations were issued by Code Enforcement during this reporting period as emphasis was directed
to educating various businesses as to how they were impacted by the myriad of Emergency Orders
that were issued on a regular basis.
Code Enforcement and Fire Prevention:
We are working with the Los Angeles County Fire Department and have included their business
inspection reports in past Tri Annual reviews. Due to Covid-19, the department has suspended their
business license inspection program.
Code Enforcement/Violation of CUP Conditions:
Code Enforcement efforts have shifted in response to Covid-19. With the new temporary outdoor
dining/retail display program, Code Enforcement has been tasked with processing and verifying
these permits, as well as ensuring that the added seating does not exceed County guidelines
regarding occupant loads.
The success of their efforts can be seen throughout Hermosa Beach, particularly in the downtown
and upper Pier areas. Code Enforcement has also been instrumental in educating businesses
regarding proper face coverings and social distancing in these establishments.
Over the 4th of July weekend, our Enforcement team paired with County Health Inspectors to tour the

downtown district and ensure that we were following their guidelines. We have established an
excellent partnership with this vital department.
Violations that are both a code violation and a CUP violation are only counted once. Code
Enforcement issued no citations during this reporting period. Although many businesses received
warnings, policy is to request compliance prior to issuing a Citation during a single shift. Code
Enforcement considered the following as violations/incidents to highlight for this reporting period:
On May 5, 2020 Barnacles Bar & Grill was closed by the Health Department for 7 days due to serving
food and drink to patrons inside the establishment.
Code Enforcement Statistical Data Relating to Business Checks of Alcohol Serving Establishments
March 1 to August 31, 2020 is contained in Attachment 6, with the last reporting period report as
Attachment 7.
Businesses required to submit food-to-alcohol sales ratio reports per conditions in their CUPs must
continue to do so; failure to do so is counted as part of the CUP review. Waterman’s, 22 Pier
Avenue, and Día de Campo, 1238 Hermosa Avenue, are required to submit quarterly reports, which
need not be audited. Standing Room, 1320 Hermosa Avenue, must submit quarterly reports audited
by a CPA. All have submitted the required documents.
Based on the “Procedure for Review of On-Sale Alcoholic Beverage Conditional Use Permit” no
businesses have reached the “Standard Initiating P.C. Review” based on the “standards that would
trigger a referral to the Planning Commission for a CUP review and potentially for a subsequent
modification/revocation hearing.”
General Plan Consistency:
Evaluation of the City’s enforcement and police responses to achieve safety goals is consistent with
Goal 5 of the Public Safety Element: High Quality police and fire protection services provided to
residents and visitors and the following policies under Goal 5:
·Public Safety 5.1 Crime deterrence. Regularly evaluate the incidence of crime and identify and
implement measures to deter crime.
·Public Safety 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.
·Public Safety 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.
·Public Safety 5.4 Physical design standards. Reduce opportunities for criminal activity through

physical design standards and Crime Prevention through Environmental Design principles.
·Public Safety 5.8 Nuisance abatement. Encourage Police Department review of uses which
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.
Additionally, Goal 2 of the Governance Element speaks to the importance of having the community,
including business partners, be active and engaged in the decision-making process. Staff has found
that collaboration with the Pier Plaza establishments to address safety concerns and improve access,
lighting, and other aesthetics on the Plaza to be an effective partnership.
Summary and Recommendations: The data relating to the Semi-Annual Review criteria is
summarized below for specific businesses.
*Most Code violations are also CUP violations and are not counted twice.
Note: While no citations were issued Barnacles violated their CUP for allowing patrons to drink in
front of the building and for a health department violation by PD. They were also closed by County
Heath for a violation of their Public Health Order.
In summary, Barnacles Bar and Grill, reached the threshold of three incidents during this reporting
period, and is subject to further review by the Commission. It is Staff’s position that the scope and
nature of these incidents, in consideration of the changing landscape of various rules due to the
pandemic, warrant further review and discussion by the Planning Commission before initiation of a
formal revocation and modification hearing Planning Commission.

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.

stipulated in many current CUPs and the Municipal Code. (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.

Hermosa Beach Police Department
March - August 2020 CUP Review
1
Police Reports:
The Hermosa Beach Police Department (HBPD) conducts a thorough review of all police reports
related to establishments which hold an ABC alcohol permit. Each report is typically reviewed
individually by several people. The review process is initiated by the Crime Analyst, then a
review by the Operations Bureau Division Commander (Lieutenant), and the Police Captain
which is currently vacant. The Lieutenant and the Captain make recommendations to the Police
Chief regarding their determination of an establishment’s culpability related to Conditional Use
Permit (CUP) standards. In addition, the Operations Bureau Division Commander personally
makes contact with owners and managers of establishments related to any concern(s) the Police
Department may have of issues that do not rise to a CUP violation. The purpose of this
communication is to ensure that the establishment hears directly from the Police Department in
an effort to address issues before they rise to CUP violations or other potential safety concerns.
Police reports are initiated by a Call for Service (CFS). A CFS begins when someone requests
the help of the police (typically by a call to dispatch) or if an officer observes an
incident/violation/or contacts someone in an enforcement capacity. A CFS may result in a report,
citation, arrest, or no action may be taken. HBPD reviews both CFS and police reports related to
ABC permitted addresses. It is important to understand that a CFS or a report at a specific
address does not mean an incident happened inside the address. As an example, a traffic accident
or a fight reported at 1234 Main Street does not mean the incident occurred inside the address or
is associated with the 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. That
said, a location with 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 location other than used as a
landmark/identifying the location of an incident which occurred outside of the location.
In reporting back to the Planning Commission, HBPD will note the number of CFS and Reports
associated with an address. We also report back 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 (Table 1.) As an
example, two people bump into each other inside of an establishment and one person hits the
other person without warning. Without additional information demonstrating the establishment’s
complicity or negligence, the establishment would not be charged with a CUP violation.
As the Planning Commission reviews HBPD’s statistics related to each location, it should be
understood that a location may have 4 “Total” reports, of which only 3 are “reviewed” would
mean one of the four reports has nothing to do with the location. The number under the type of
report (e.g. Drunk, Disturbance, Assault, etc.), may or may not be charged against the
establishment based on the determination made the HBPD Chief of Police. As noted, this
determination will be made based on information demonstrating the establishment’s complicity
or negligence. If it is determined that an establishment is complicit or negligent, a number will be
assigned to the “Counted for CUP” column.

March - August 2020 CUP Review
2
For context, the HBPD and the FBI categorizes assaults, sexual assaults and narcotics violations
as ‘serious crime.” With this in mind and with the agreement of the Planning Commission, it has
been determined that two (2) incidents of “Serious Crime on Premises Indicative of Lack of
Adequate Security” is the established criteria needed for the Chief of Police to request a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) review by the Planning Commission (as noted on Table 1 of the
CUP review standards). That said, the municipal code also provides: “the Chief of Police retains
authority to recommend CUP reviews to the Planning Commission at his/her discretion—
regardless of the number of incidents in any period of time, as stipulated in many current CUPs
and the Municipal Code.
Between 03/01/2020 and 08/31/20, 10 police reports and 31 CFS related to establishments with
CUPs merited review by police staff. Of these 10 reports, 4 were previously reviewed during the
last CUP as they occurred during either March or April of 2020.
Between 03/01/2020 and 08/31/20, Barnacles again had zero reports, and 6 CFS that were
reviewed. Two CFS were previously reviewed during the last CUP. One of the previously
reviewed calls was counted for CUP. This call was for subjects loitering at the location. Even
though they were not cited, the incident was considered an ABC and LA health order violation.
The general manager of Barnacles had previously been warned regarding several patrons on the
patio with drinks who did not order food. Of the 4 currently reviewed calls, 1 counted towards
CUP. This incident found customers were drinking at the location. 2 patrons, the owner and an
employee were contacted and advised.
The Deck had 5 calls for service reviewed and no reports. Of the CFS, one was found to be
counted for the CUP. This instance consisted of a multiple people located at the location eating
at tables. Some had drinks in clear cups that were not sealed. Code Enforcement was notified and
asked to talk to the business owner and to move table and chairs inside.
Silvio’s had one CFS reviewed and counted. The incident involved a patron who was drinking in
public in front of Sylvio’s. The patron was cited for possession of an open container of alcohol
in public. Per HBMC 17.40.080, the business is responsible for preventing loitering, unruliness
and boisterous activities of the patrons outside of the business or in the immediate area.
Slaters 50 50 had 2 CFS reviewed and one counted for CUP. On the incident which is counted,
four subjects were contacted in the parking lot of Slaters with open containers of alcohol. This
call was a violation of 17.40.080 in the parking lot of the location.

ABC Activity:
The Hermosa Beach Police Department previously participated in a tri-city (Hermosa Beach,
Manhattan Beach and El Segundo) grant with Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) which ended on
June 30, 2019. The tri-cities did not receive a new ABC grant for this fiscal year. We will be re-
applying for future grants. This grant provided funding for officers from each agency to work
together to impact alcohol related issues in each city. While this program is primarily
enforcement related, there is an educational component where police and ABC personnel meet
with the staff/ownership at on-site and off-site sales establishments to review expectations and
provide guidance. Updates of any future ABC grants will be provided to the Planning
Commission.
Responsible Beverage Service Training:
On March 10, 2020 Behavioral Health Services provided RBS training in Hermosa Beach and
had 15 attendees. 10 attendees were from Hermosa Beach establishments and 5 attendees were
from Manhattan Beach establishments. 12 of the 15 attendees passed the post-test with a score
of 70% or higher.
Definitions:
IMPACT (Informed Merchants Preventing Alcohol-Related Crime Tendencies) Inspection-
objective of the project is to educate licensees about the various ways they can participate in
reducing alcohol-related crimes such as sales to underage and obviously intoxicated persons.
Licensee Education on Alcohol and Drugs (LEAD) Training- A free, voluntary prevention
and education program for retail licensees, their employees and applicants, designed to promote

DUI and Drunk in Public Summary:
As part of 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. The answers are documented and are presented here.

Hermosa Beach Police Department
November 2019 – April 2020 CUP Review

Police Reports:
The Hermosa Beach Police Department (HBPD) conducts a thorough review of all police reports
related to establishments which hold an ABC alcohol permit. Each report is typically reviewed
individually by more than three people. The review process is initiated by the Crime Analyst,
then a review by the Operations Bureau Division Commander (Lieutenant), the Police Captain
and ultimately the Chief of Police. The Lieutenant and the Captain make recommendations to the
Police Chief regarding their determination of an establishment’s culpability related to
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) standards. In addition, the Operations Bureau Division
Commander personally makes contact with owners and managers of establishments related to
any concern(s) the Police Department may have of issues that do not rise to a CUP violation. The
purpose of this communication is to ensure that the establishment hears directly from the Police
Department in an effort to address issues before they rise to CUP violations or other potential
safety concerns.
Police reports are initiated by a Call for Service (CFS). A CFS begins when someone requests
the help of the police (typically by a call to dispatch) or if an officer observes an
incident/violation/or contacts someone in an enforcement capacity. A CFS may result in a report,
citation, arrest, or no action may be taken. HBPD reviews both CFS and police reports related to
ABC permitted addresses. It is important to understand that a CFS or a report at a specific
address does not mean an incident happened inside the address. As an example, a traffic accident
or a fight reported at 1234 Main Street does not mean the incident occurred inside the address or
is associated with the 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. That
said, a location with 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 location other than used as a
landmark/identifying the location of an incident which occurred outside of the location.
In reporting back to the Planning Commission, HBPD will note the number of CFS and Reports
associated with an address. We also report back 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 (Table 1.) As an
example, two people bump into each other inside of an establishment and one person hits the
other person without warning. Without additional information demonstrating the establishment’s
complicity or negligence, the establishment would not be charged with a CUP violation.
As the Planning Commission reviews HBPD’s statistics related to each location, it should be
understood that a location may have 4 “Total” reports, of which only 3 are “reviewed” would
mean one of the four reports has nothing to do with the location. The number under the type of
report (e.g. Drunk, Disturbance, Assault, etc.), may or may not be charged against the
establishment based on the determination made the HBPD Chief of Police. As noted, this
determination will be made based on information demonstrating the establishment’s complicity
or negligence. If it is determined that an establishment is complicit or negligent, a number will be
assigned to the “Counted for CUP” column.

For context, the HBPD and the FBI categorizes assaults, sexual assaults and narcotics violations
as ‘serious crime.” With this in mind and with the agreement of the Planning Commission, it has
been determined that two (2) incidents of “Serious Crime on Premises Indicative of Lack of
Adequate Security” is the established criteria needed for the Chief of Police to request a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) review by the Planning Commission (as noted on Table 1 of the
CUP review standards). That said, the municipal code also provides: “the Chief of Police retains
authority to recommend CUP reviews to the Planning Commission at his/her discretion—
regardless of the number of incidents in any period of time, as stipulated in many current CUPs
and the Municipal Code.
Between 11/01/19 and 04/30/20, 11 police reports and 18 CFS related to establishments with
CUPs merited review by police staff. Between 11/01/19 and 04/30/20,Barnacles had zero
reports, and 3 CFS that were reviewed. One CFS was previously reviewed during the last CUP.
The 2 current CFS that were reviewed, one was counted for CUP. This call was for subjects
loitering at the location. Even though they were not cited, the incident was considered an ABC
and LA health order violation. The general manager of Barnacles had previously been warned
regarding several patrons on the patio with drinks who did not order food.
Local 90 had one incident that counted against them but that incident was previously reviewed
and counted on the last CUP report. See attached 2019 November – 2020 April CUP 6 Month

ABC Activity:
The Hermosa Beach Police Department previously participated in a tri-city (Hermosa Beach,
Manhattan Beach and El Segundo) grant with Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) which ended on
June 30, 2019. The tri-cities did not receive a new ABC grant for this fiscal year. We will be re-
applying for future grants. This grant provided funding for officers from each agency to work
together to impact alcohol related issues in each city. While this program is primarily
enforcement related, there is an educational component where police and ABC personnel meet
with the staff/ownership at on-site and off-site sales establishments to review expectations and
provide guidance. Updates of any future ABC grants will be provided to the Planning
Commission.

Responsible Beverage Service Training:
On March 10, 2020 Behavioral Health Services provided RBS training in Hermosa Beach and
had 15 attendees. 10 attendees were from Hermosa Beach establishments and 5 attendees were
from Manhattan Beach establishments. 12 of the 15 attendees passed the post-test with a score
of 70% or higher.
Definitions:
IMPACT (Informed Merchants Preventing Alcohol-Related Crime Tendencies) Inspection-
objective of the project is to educate licensees about the various ways they can participate in
reducing alcohol-related crimes such as sales to underage and obviously intoxicated persons.
Licensee Education on Alcohol and Drugs (LEAD) Training- A free, voluntary prevention
and education program for retail licensees, their employees and applicants, designed to promote
the legal and responsible sale and service of alcoholic beverages in California.
Minor Decoy- This operation allows law enforcement to use persons under 20 years of age as
decoys to test establishments ID check process to determine if they will sell alcohol to minors.
Party Patrol Enforcement- This operation focuses on under aged alcohol related parties.
Responsible Beverage Service (RBS) Training- Similar to LEAD training, this free training is
provided by the Behavioral Health Services (BHS) to sellers/servers designed to promote the
legal and responsible sale and service of alcoholic beverages in California.
Shoulder Tap- During these operations, a minor decoy, under the direct supervision of law
enforcement officers, solicits adults outside ABC licensed establishments to buy the minor decoy
alcohol.
Trap Door- During these operations, law enforcement works with establishments to interview
and cite minors who have attempted to gain access to an establishment using a false ID.

DUI and Drunk in Public Summary:
As part of 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. The answers are documented and are presented here.
