Honorable Chairman and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission
Regular Meeting of May 15, 2018
Conditional Use Permit Amendment 17-4,Precise Development Plan 17-11, and
Parking Plan Amendment 17-3 to allow a cumulative approximately 26,000 gross sq. ft.
addition in conjunction with a religious institution (Hope Chapel) to include a worship
and congregation hall, meeting spaces, fellowship space and youth center at an
existing approximately 35,000 sq. ft. building for a total of approximately 61,000 gross
sq. ft. located at 2420 Pacific Coast Highway and use of an alternative property corner
point elevation for purposes of determining building height, with less than required
parking based on shared parking with parking lots at 950 Artesia Boulevard and 2306,
2420 and 2510 Pacific Coast Highway; and determination that the project is
categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Applicant/Owner:Hope Chapel
2420 Pacific Coast Highway
Hermosa Beach, CA 90254
Recommended Action:
1.Adopt the attached revised resolutions approving the Conditional Use Permit (CUP 17-4)
Amendment and Precise Development Plan (PDP 17-11) at 2420 Pacific Coast Highway
(PCH) Hope Chapel church with incidental live entertainment and a Parking Plan Amendment
(PARK 17-3) at 950 Artesia Blvd. and 2306, 2420 and 2510 PCH, subject to revised
conditions, and determine that the project is categorically exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA); and
2.Find, by minute order, that the supporting evidence is appropriate, and the alternate southwest
property corner elevation of 172.56 may be used for purposes of basing building height at
2420 PCH.
Background
During the April 17, 2018 Planning Commission hearing, staff presented the Commission and public
with the proposed Hope Chapel project (April 17, 2018 Planning Commission Agenda link attached).
The day prior to the hearing, staff received from the owners of the adjacent property at 2200 PCH a
copy of an existing private parking access easement providing to 2200 PCH the authorization to
access 25-40 parking spaces at Hope Chapel’s 2420 PCH property Monday through Friday from 7am
to 6pm. Staff analyzed the weekday parking demands between 7am and 6pm at the Hope Chapel
property based on the Parking Study provided by the applicant as support documentation for their
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/3/2022Page 1 of 3
powered by Legistar™15
Staff Report
REPORT 18-0317
Parking Plan request. Staff found that, even with the additional weekday 40-space parking demand
created by the 2200 PCH parking easement, the Hope Chapel properties included in the proposed
Parking Plan would maintain a minimum 132-space surplus of parking during those weekday hours.
Staff prepared and presented revised language to amend the proposed resolution of approval to
acknowledge the parking easement as well as the resulting amount of surplus parking, and
recommended that the Planning Commission approve the requested entitlements, including the
Parking Plan. However, a majority of the Commission was not comfortable taking action on the
Parking Plan at that time given that the parking easement information had been presented on such
short notice.
Also during the meeting, some residents expressed concern about a door on the north elevation of
the proposed church building which would open onto Borden Street, and thereby possibly encourage
people to park on Borden Street rather than on the church site.
Other resident concerns expressed included: overflow of Hope Chapel church parking into residential
neighborhoods; combination of parking and traffic from Journey of Faith church located north of the
project site in Manhattan Beach; noise during construction period; noise from existing church
services related to instruments; and rationale for the proposed CEQA finding.
Based on supporting evidence presented, the Commission generally agreed with the use of the
requested alternative property corner elevation of 172.56 at the southwest property corner for
purposes of basing building height.
Following discussion, the Commission voted to continue the public hearing to May 15, 2018, primarily
due to the short notice given regarding the information about the existing private parking easement.
Analysis
In order to discourage off-site parking on Borden Street, the Commission preferred that the Borden
Street door function solely as an emergency exit door. As such, staff revised the conditions of
approval to restrict the Borden Street door to be locked on the exterior and serve solely as an
alarmed exit door.
The Parking Study has been updated to recognize and analyze the affects on the proposed Parking
Plan of the existing private parking easement granting 2200 PCH the use of 25-40 spaces Monday
through Friday from 7am to 6pm. The floor plan, parking plan and traffic analysis presented
encompass and account for the proposed future assembly uses (ICAN and UCODE) at 950 Artesia
Blvd that were not proposed in the previously approved Parking Plan. The City’s Traffic and Parking
consultant found 359 parking stalls to be sufficient for the combination of all proposed uses. The
proposed resolutions contain conditions of approval requiring strict compliance with detailed
operating days, hours, services, and number of attendees and church employees, requiring the
project remain substantially consistent with the approved floor plan. The Parking Plan also includes a
condition of approval that any additional parking access easement(s) will require approval of a
Parking Plan Amendment by the Planning Commission.
The conditions of approval also require exterior doors and windows remain closed during any
incidental live entertainment, implementation of noise attenuation measures (sound dampening

double paned insulated glass and construction of fully insulated framed concrete or masonry block
walls), and prohibiting entertainment, music, speakers, televisions, or audio or visual media of any
type, whether amplified or unamplified from being located outdoors or situated to be visible to the
public right-of-way (sidewalk). The project is conditioned to require compliance with the City Noise
Ordinance and requires the applicant submit a demolition and construction management plan for
review and approval by the City Building Official at time of Building Permit submittal. The project is
required to hold a pre-demolition/ construction meeting, and the procedural handout is attached. The
State of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) identifies various types of projects statewide
which are exempt from CEQA review, and this project is exempt as it meets all criteria for In-fill
Development Projects as detailed in the April 17, 2018 staff report.
Summary
Based on the analysis presented to the Planning Commission and public during the April 17, 2018
hearing, with revisions added to the resolutions of approval to address the newly presented private
parking easement agreement between Hope Chapel and 2200 PCH, the proposed Precise
Development Plan 17-11, Conditional Use Permit Amendment 17-4 and Parking Plan Amendment 17
-3, as revised and conditioned, are consistent with the zoning code and PLAN Hermosa.
Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the attached resolutions approving PDP 17-11,
CUP Amendment 17-4, and Parking Plan Amendment 17-3, and determining that the project is
categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Staff also recommends
the Planning Commission find, by minute order, that the supporting evidence is appropriate, and the
alternate southwest property corner elevation of 172.56 may be used for purposes of basing building
height at 2420 PCH.

P.C. RESOLUTION 18-XX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA
BEACH, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AMENDMENT 17-4
AND PRECISE DEVELOPMENT PLAN 17-11 TO ALLOW A CUMULATIVE
APPROXIMATELY 26,000 GROSS SQ. FT. ADDITION IN CONJUNCTION WITH A
RELIGIOUS INSTITUTION (HOPE CHAPEL) TO INCLUDE A WORSHIP AND
CONGREGATION HALL, MEETING SPACES, FELLOWSHIP SPACE AND YOUTH
CENTER AT AN EXISTING APPROXIMATELY 35,000 SQ. FT. BUILDING FOR A TOTAL
OF APPROXIMATELY 61,000 GROSS SQ. FT. LOCATED AT 2420 PACIFIC COAST
HIGHWAY AND USE OF AN ALTERNATIVE PROPERTY CORNER POINT ELEVATION
FOR PURPOSES OF DETERMINING BUILDING HEIGHT, WITH LESS THAN REQUIRED
PARKING BASED ON SHARED PARKING WITH PARKING LOTS AT 950 ARTESIA
BOULEVARD AND 2306, 2420 AND 2510 PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY; AND
DETERMINATION THAT THE PROJECT IS CATEGORICALLY 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. An application was filed by Hope Chapel (International Church of the Foursquare
Gospel) on June 21, 2016 requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit amendment 17-4 and Precise
Development Plan 17-11 to allow a cumulative approximately 26,000 gross sq. ft. addition in
conjunction with a religious institution (Hope Chapel) with existing incidental live entertainment to
include a worship and congregation hall, meeting spaces, fellowship space and youth center at an
existing approximately 35,000 sq. ft. building for a total of approximately 61,000 gross sq. ft. located at
2420 Pacific Coast Highway and use of an alternative property corner point elevation for purposes of
determining building height, with less than required parking based on shared parking with parking lots at
950 Artesia Boulevard and 2306, 2420 and 2510 Pacific Coast Highway; and determination that the
project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider the
application on April 17, 2018 and May 15, 2018, at which time testimony and evidence, both oral and
written, was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission.
Section 3. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the project is categorically
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as it meets all of the criteria for In-fill
Development Projects defined in CEQA Section 15332 because:
1. The project is consistent with applicable General Plan designation and policies as well as
applicable zoning designation and regulations;
2. The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres
substantially surrounded by urban uses;
3. The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species;
4. Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air
quality, or water quality; and
5. The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services because this is an
existing church use that is expanding and all utilities have capacity for the increased use. The
project is conditioned to require the applicant demonstrate through a Will Serve letter from
CalWater, or other solution prepared by a registered engineer and to the satisfaction of the
18
Page 2 - CUP 17-4 & PDP 17-11
City’s Public Works Department and the Los Angeles County Fire Department, that the water
system can adequately serve the site.
Section 4. Based on the testimony and evidence received, the Planning Commission makes the
following findings pertaining to the application for the Conditional Use Permit amendment and Precise
Development Plan pursuant to the combined criteria in Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC)
Sections 17.40 and 17.58 and evaluation of project compliance with the C-3 development standards
pursuant to HBMC Section 17.26.050:
1. Distance from existing residential uses (in relation to negative effects);
A 64-unit residential condominium is located immediately east of the subject property at 2411
Prospect Ave. and additional low density residential uses are located southeast of the subject site
behind the 2420 PCH church building. Pursuant to HBMC Section 8.24.040, the City’s Noise
Ordinance restricts commercial activities, band rehearsals, and similar noise producing activities
that are plainly audible from a residential dwelling unit’s property line from 10:00 p.m. to 8:00
a.m. daily. The applicant proposes indoor operating hours of 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily.
Conditions of approval include that the project remain in substantial conformance with the
proposed church operating days, hours, services and number of attendees and church employees as
detailed in the updated Parking Analysis, dated May 3, 2018; that all events and activities be fully
contained within the building; all doors and windows shall be fully closed when amplified sound is
projected. The proposed building is designed with the customer entrance/exits on the northwest
side of the building, as well as a terrace with ancillary outdoor seating along the west PCH
frontage, both of which are oriented away from nearby residential uses. Should the church operate
in violation of the CUP, the Planning Commission is authorized by the HBMC to review the CUP.
While a commercial building adjacent to a residential zone must provide a minimum 8-foot setback
with an additional 2 feet for each story over the first on the rear and side yard areas, existing
buildings with non-conforming setbacks are allowed to remain. However, all new construction
must conform to new requirements. The east (rear) and south (side) of the existing building is
adjacent to a residential zone.. Because modifications are proposed to the rear (east elevation) of
the building, a 12-foot building setback is required on all floor levels at the rear portion of the
building. The proposal is to maintain the existing non-conforming building setback at the south
side of the building. Additionally, pursuant to HBMC requirements, the required rear and/or side
yard areas adjacent to residential zones will be landscaped (including an automatic watering
system) with 24 inch box size Bottle trees, Golden Goddess Bamboo, Bush Lilly, Blue Oat Grass
and Carpet Bugle.
Lighting will be installed around the building and will be required to be downcast so to not disturb
neighboring residential uses. The project includes a condition to require lighting be downcast and
be non-disruptive to nearby uses. Lighting shall conform to HBMC Section 17.44.160(C).
2. The amount of existing or proposed off-street parking (facilities)in relation to actual need (and
its distance from the proposed use);
The applicant proposes a shared parking approach with the subject property at 2420 PCH as well as
surrounding applicant-owned properties at 2306, 2510 PCH and 950 Artesia Blvd to provide a total
aggregate of 359 on-site parking spaces, and submitted a Parking Analysis prepared by a qualified
traffic/parking consultant, which was peer-reviewed by the City’s traffic/parking consultant. The
City’s consultant concurred with the conclusion of the Parking Analysis which indicates that the
shared parking approach with a total aggregate of 359 on-site parking spaces provided by the
19
Page 3 - CUP 17-4 & PDP 17-11
aforementioned properties is adequate to support the peak weekday (318 spaces) and peak weekend
(341) parking demand. Parking at 2306-2510 PCH and 950 Artesia Blvd. is internally connected
so that people can move from one shared parking lot to another without re-accessing the public
streets. The applicant has acknowledged an easement whereby 2200 Pacific Coast Highway may
use 25 to 40 spaces at 2420 Pacific Coast Highway Monday through Friday from 7am to 6pm.
Even if those spaces are used, parking is adequate as shown by the Parking Study because there
would be a surplus of parking of at least 113 spaces during that time period. A proposed
companion resolution is attached recommending approval of the applicant’s requested Parking Plan
17-3, and includes a condition of approval that shared parking use signage shall be established in
all shared parking lots. For a detailed parking analysis see Parking Plan 17-3 resolution.
3. Location of and distance to churches, schools, hospitals and public playgrounds;
Churches, schools, hospitals and public playgrounds are considered sensitive receptors. These are
areas where the occupants are more susceptible than the general public to adverse effects of
exposure to toxic chemicals, pesticides, other pollutants/contaminants, and noise, Journey of Faith
Christian Church and Mira Costa High School are located approximately 500 feet northeast of the
subject site. Hope Chapel’s operation does not involve toxic chemicals, pesticides, other
pollutants/contaminants. Noise from the church’s operations will be contained within the fully
enclosed building. Therefore, adverse impacts are not anticipated.
4. The combination of uses proposed, (as they relate to compatibility);
The subject site is located adjacent to other Hope Chapel church owned and operated buildings
which include the approximately 10,000 sq. ft. church administration office building at 2306 PCH,
the approximately 30,000 sq. ft. Lazy Acres market building at 2510 PCH, and the approximately
15,000 sq. ft. church annex building at 950 Artesia Blvd. Close proximity to these complementary
uses facilitates expansion of church related uses due to the ability to share parking facilities with
the adjacent buildings.
5. Precautions taken by the owner or operator of the proposed establishment to assure the
compatibility of the use with surrounding uses;
New permeable paving will be provided as necessary for on-site water retention and treatment
pursuant to the City’s Low Impact Development standards. An ADA compliant ramp will be
installed leading from the PCH sidewalk to the main entrance. The existing retaining wall which
directly abuts the PCH sidewalk is proposed to be stepped back approximately 30” with a
landscaped planter to provide a more pedestrian oriented frontage along the PCH frontage. The
screened trash enclosure is proposed to be located within the parking structure at the northeast
corner of the ground floor level.
6. The relationship of the estimated/(proposed business) generated traffic volume and the capacity
(size) and safety of streets serving the area;
A Traffic Impact Report was prepared by the applicant’s traffic engineering consultant, peer
reviewed and accepted by the City, and approved by the Planning Commission on April 18, 2017.
It addressed conversion of the church youth center to the now Lazy Acres supermarket at 2510
PCH, assessed a potential future renovation/expansion at the Hope Chapel Church building located
at 2420 PCH, and conversion of a 15,000 sq. ft. building at 950 Artesia Blvd., currently occupied
by general office uses, to church annex/offices.
The applicant supplied a Traffic Impact Analysis Addendum, dated March 6, 2018, to assess
adjustments and clarification of assembly hall (ICAN and UCODE which are educational programs
20
Page 4 - CUP 17-4 & PDP 17-11
geared towards children and young adults) uses within the annex building located at 950 Artesia
Blvd. The addendum was peer reviewed by the City’s Traffic Engineer who confirmed that the
changes in use would not result in any significant impacts from traffic generated by the project,
either during weekdays or on Sundays (TJW Engineering, March 2018).
Access to Hope Chapel is via two shared driveways on the east side of PCH for northbound traffic
and three shared driveways on the south side of Artesia Blvd. Both PCH and Artesia Blvd are
commercial corridors with high traffic volumes and are capable of accommodating the expected
traffic demand.
The Traffic Impact Analysis identifies that new traffic generated by the project will not
significantly degrade the level of service at local intersections. Nor will the project’s traffic
adversely affect any congestion management program (CMP) intersections or otherwise conflict
with the Los Angeles County CMP (TJW Engineering, March 2018). The project will not conflict
with plans, policies or ordinances related to other modes of transportation (mass transit, pedestrian,
bicycle). It will not alter or obstruct existing or planned bike paths. Nor will it alter or im pede
access to mass transit facilities. The project will not introduce any hazards to mobility, nor will it
impact emergency access to the site.
7. The proposed exterior signs and decor, and the compatibility thereof with existing
establishments in the area;
The applicant proposes alterations to all sides of the building façade to provide a modern urban
architectural design, which will be in keeping with surrounding recently remodeled properties, such
as Hotel Hermosa and the Lazy Acres Natural Market (currently under construction) . Architectural
treatment and design elements include a two-story open and glassy entry lobby, glass guardrails
surrounding the front terrace, installation of light grey and white concrete and tile, white stucco,
vertical shading fins, skylights and daylights to add natural lighting to the building, roof top
mechanical screening and new windows and doors.
The project includes a condition requiring a sign permit for new signage at the subject site in
conformance with HBMC Section 17.50.
8. The number of similar establishments or uses within close proximity to the proposed
establishment;
Journey of Faith Christian Church on Artesia Boulevard in Manhattan Beach is the nearest church
use, approximately 500 feet northeast from the Hope Chapel site. Due to its location on the
opposite side of Artesia Boulevard, a major arterial road, the fact that both churches have been in
operation at these locations for many years, and the overflow parking available to Hope Chapel on
its adjoining properties, impacts associated with concentration of similar establishments are not
anticipated.
9. Building and driveway orientation in relation to sensitive uses, e.g., residences and schools;
The proposal includes maintaining existing vehicular access points to the site provided by three
curb cuts along PCH and four curb cuts along Artesia Blvd. These multiple vehicular
ingress/egress points limit impacts to street traffic on PCH and Artesia Blvd. Traffic patterns will
be oriented towards the north and west side of the lot where it is least impactful to nearby
residences. The proposed project does not include alterations to existing traffic patterns on and
around the site as detailed under Criteria 6 above. No impacts are anticipated.
21
Page 5 - CUP 17-4 & PDP 17-11
10. Noise, odor, dust and/or vibration that may be generated by the proposed use;
The proposed convention hall/auditorium use is enclosed and located along the PCH and Artesia
Blvd. intersection, a noise-dominated commercial corner, it is not anticipated that other nearby
commercial uses, including offices and commercial center would be affected. Conditions of
approval are included in the draft resolution that require: noise emanating from the property shall
be within the limitations prescribed by the City’s Noise Ordinance; exterior doors and windows
shall remain closed during any incidental live entertainment; the building shall be equipped with air
conditioning to maximize sound proofing; and management shall be responsible for maintaining
music/entertainment volumes at reasonable levels. The sanctuary room with stage, audio booth and
rehearsal room are located on the main/first floor level and at the center of the church and away
from windows and doors. Therefore, noise and vibration impacts to the nearest sensitive receptors
(residential uses) are not anticipated with the proposed expansion and floor plan modifications.
Should noise issues occur, remedies include, but are not limited to, cessation of amplified sound,
further limitation on hours, and/or an acoustical study to determine appropriate mitigations such as
installation of sound proof materials.
Additional vehicular trips generated by the proposed facility expansion will not be great enough to
result in a substantial increase in roadway noise. Noise from future activities at the renovated
building will not be greater than current conditions. The short duration of noise events generated
during construction will temporarily result in increased ambient noise levels, but will not
significantly impact the ambient noise environment over the long term or for a significant period of
time. Compliance with the City’s Noise Ordinance, will effectively ensure that the project does not
exceed adopted standards and successfully avoids significant noise impacts.
11. Impact of the proposed use to the city’s infrastructure, and/or services;
The existing site has available utilities and services. The proposed expansion places additional
demand on utilities, The Fire Department has provided a condition of approval stating that the
applicant shall demonstrate through a Will Serve letter from CalWater, or other solution prepared
by a registered engineer, that the water system shall provide the equivalent of 3,250 gpm. The
following improvements must be completed as part of the project: water main upgrades,
installation of an on-site looped fire line and/or installation of a booster pump system for fire
sprinkler system. If the City determines that a booster pump is required, it shall be located below
grade within an enclosed room. The site has historically operated as a church, and despite the
proposed church expansion demanding additional utilities and services to the site when compared
to the existing use, the anticipated increase in demand is anticipated to be minimal.
12. Will the establishment contribute to a concentration of similar outlets in the area;
The proposed church expansion will not contribute to a concentration of church uses in the area as the
subject site is an addition and remodel to the existing church use located at 2420 PCH. No impacts are
anticipated.
13. Adequacy of mitigation measures to minimize environmental impacts in quantitative terms;
Because the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act,
meeting all of the criteria for Infill Development Projects defined in CEQA Section 15332,
environmental mitigation measures are not required. However, the proposed resolution of approval
contains standard conditions of approval to ensure compliance with the zoning code and PLAN
Hermosa to ensure that the project will be compatible and not result in any significant
environmental impacts.
22

14. 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.
The proposal includes improvements to existing landscaping and driveway/walkway improvements
at the PCH street frontage.
Section 5. Based on the foregoing, the Planning Commission hereby approves the proposed
Conditional Use Permit Amendment 17-4 and Precise Development Plan 17-11 subject to the
following Conditions of Approval:
1. All previous Planning Commission Resolutions pertaining to the subject property at 2420

the Conditional Use Permit amendment and Precise Development Plan for the property at
2420 Pacific Coast Highway shall be governed exclusively by the provisions herein.
2. The proposed modifications to the building and uses shall be substantially consistent with
plans and application submitted and approved by the Planning Commission on April 17,
2018. The Community Development Director shall review and may approve minor
modifications that do not otherwise conflict with the Municipal Code or requirements of
this approval, provided that the use is not changed, intensity of use is not increased and
the arrangement of space would not increase negative impacts. Any substantial deviation,
changes to the floor plan, site plan, building exterior or addition to the hours of church
services and/or additional assembly type uses which alter the primary function of the use
as church (assembly hall use) shall be subject to review and approval by the Planning
Commission. Any modifications or alterations to the south property line block wall must
be reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission.
3. Architectural treatments and accessory facilities shall be as shown on building elevations,
site and floor plans approved by Planning Commission on April 17, 2018. Precise building
height compliance shall be reviewed at the time of plan check, to the satisfaction of the
Community Development Director.
4. The architectural tower, elevator housing and roof mounted mechanical equipment shall
be subject to the development standards of HBMC Section 17.46.010. Roof elements listed
in HBMC Section 17.46.010 are governed by the California Building Code and may
exceed the height limit only by the minimum amount necessary to comply with the
California Building Code standards and shall cover no more than five (5) percent of the
total roof area.
5. All exterior lighting shall be downcast and fully shielded, and illumination shall be
contained within the property boundaries. Lighting shall be energy-conserving and
motion detector lighting shall be used for all lighting except low-level (three feet or less in
height) security lighting and porch lights. Lamp bulbs and images shall not be visible
from within any onsite or offsite residential unit. Exterior lighting shall not be deemed
finally approved until 30 days after installation, during which period the Building Official
may order the dimming or modification of any illumination found to be excessively
brilliant or impacting to nearby properties.
6. Lighting for signage must be downcast and non-disruptive to nearby uses and compliant
with HBMC Section 17.50 (Signs).

7. A sign permit shall be obtained for new signage at the subject site in conformance with
HBMC Section 17.50. Shared parking use signage shall be established in all shared
parking lots consistent with the conditions of approval to the satisfaction of the
Community Development Director.
8. Two copies of a final landscape plan, consistent with landscape plans approved by the
Planning Commission, indicating size, type, quantity and characteristics of landscape
materials shall be submitted to the Community Development Department and Planning
Division for review and approval prior to the issuance of Building Permits. The final plan
shall also include the following:
a. A minimum 12-foot wide landscape planter with automatic irrigation shall be
provided and maintained along the east (rear) property line.

permeable surfaces in the parking lot and other non-landscaped areas to the maximum
extent feasible. If providing water-permeable surfaces on at least 50% of exterior surface
area is not feasible and incorporating measures in 8.44.095 to the extent practicable to
infiltrate the volume of runoff produced by a 0.80 inch twenty-four (24) hour rain event,
then the applicant shall infiltrate runoff on-site. In the event that subsurface infiltration is
required, plans shall designate the exact location of the subsurface infiltratio n system, the
applicant shall enter into a maintenance agreement with the City (prior to final map
approval) for the ongoing infiltration, and provide a surety bond to the City to guarantee
that on-site, subsurface infiltration is achieved. The amount of the bond shall be
determined by the Building Division. All other drainage shall be routed to an off -site
facility or on-site permeable area approved by the City. To the extent possible, a portion
of roof drainage shall be routed to on-site permeable areas. No drainage shall flow over
any driveway or sidewalk.

P.C. RESOLUTION 18-XX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA
BEACH, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A PARKING PLAN AMENDMENT (PARK 17-3)
FOR A CUMULATIVE APPROXIMATELY 26,000 GROSS SQ. FT. ADDITION IN
CONJUNCTION WITH A RELIGIOUS INSTITUTION (HOPE CHAPEL) TO INCLUDE
A WORSHIP AND CONGREGATION HALL, MEETING SPACES, FELLOWSHIP
SPACE AND YOUTH CENTER AT AN EXISTING APPROXIMATELY 35,000 SQ. FT.
BUILDING FOR A TOTAL OF APPROXIMATELY 61,000 GROSS SQ. FT. LOCATED
AT 2420 PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY WITH LESS THAN REQUIRED PARKING
BASED ON SHARED PARKING WITH PARKING LOTS AT 950 ARTESIA
BOULEVARD AND 2306, 2420 AND 2510 PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY; AND
DETERMINATION THAT THE PROJECT IS CATEGORICALLY 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. An application was filed by Hope Chapel (International Church of the
Foursquare Gospel) on June 21, 2016, requesting approval of Parking Plan amendment 17-3 to
authorize shared parking via use of the aggregate total of 359 parking spaces located at the
church administration office building at 2306 Pacific Coast Highway, the Hope Chapel building
at 2420 Pacific Coast Highway, the Lazy Acres Natural Market at 2510 Pacific Coast Highway
and the church annex building at 950 Artesia Boulevard. The Planning Commission conducted
duly noticed public hearings on November 15, 2016 and April 18, 2017, to consider a request for
shared parking between the church administration office building (2306 PCH), Hope Chapel
(2420 PCH), Lazy Acres (2510 PCH) and the church annex building (950 Artesia Blvd.).On
April 18, 2017, the Planning Commission approved Parking Plan 16-7 (PC Resolution 17-14)
authorizing shared parking between the church administration office building (2306 PCH), Hope
Chapel (2420 PCH), Lazy Acres (2510 PCH) and the church annex building (950 Artesia Blvd.)
for a total of 358 on-site parking spaces. In conjunction with the Hope Chapel expansion project,
the church has submitted a request to modify the Parking Plan.
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearings to consider
the application on April 17, 2018 and May 15, 2018, at which time testimony and evidence, both
oral and written, was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission.
Section 3. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the project is
categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as it meets all of the criteria
for In-fill Development Projects defined in CEQA Section 15332 because:
1. The project is consistent with applicable General Plan designation and policies as well as
applicable zoning designation and regulations;
2. The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five
acres substantially surrounded by urban uses;
3. The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species;
31
Page 2 – PARK 17-3
4. Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic,
noise, air quality, or water quality; and
5. The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services because this
is an existing church use that is expanding and all utilities have capacity for the increased
use. The project is conditioned to require the applicant demonstrate through a Will Serve
letter from CalWater, or other solution prepared by a registered engineer and to the
satisfaction of the City’s Public Works Department and the Los Angeles County Fire
Department, that the water system can adequately serve the site.
Section 4. Based on the testimony and evidence received, the Planning Commission
makes the following factual findings pertaining to the application for a Parking Plan amendment
pursuant to Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Section 17.44.210:
The applicant proposed a shared parking approach with the subject property at 2420 PCH as well
as surrounding applicant-owned properties at 2306, 2510 PCH and 950 Artesia Blvd to provide a
total aggregate of 359 on-site parking spaces, and submitted an Updated Parking Analysis dated
May 3, 2018 (attached as Exhibit A) prepared by a qualified traffic/parking consultant, which
was peer-reviewed by the City’s traffic/parking consultant. The City’s consultant concurred with
the conclusion of the Parking Analysis which indicates that the shared parking approach with a
total aggregate of 359 on-site parking spaces provided by the aforementioned properties is
adequate to support the peak weekday (318 spaces) and peak weekend (341) parking demand.
Parking at 2306-2510 PCH and 950 Artesia Blvd. is internally connected so that people can
move from one shared parking lot to another without re-accessing the public streets.
The applicant has acknowledged an easement whereby 2200 Pacific Coast Highway may use 25
to 40 spaces, Monday through Friday from 7am to 6pm. Even if those spaces are used, parking is
adequate as shown by the Parking Study because there would be a surplus of parking of at least
113 spaces during that time.
A total of 293 shared parking spaces will be provided between Hope Chapel (2420 PCH), the
Hope Chapel administration office building (2306 PCH), and the commercial office/annex
building (950 Artesia Blvd) and Lazy Acres (2510 PCH) with an additional 66spaces for the
exclusive use of Lazy Acres (2510 PCH) for a total of 359 spaces.
Given the shared updated Parking Analysis results, it is concluded that the total on-site parking
supply of 359 parking spaces, of which 66 spaces are for the exclusive use of Lazy Acres (2510
PCH), will be adequate to support weekday and weekend peak total parking demand of 318 and
341 spaces respectively.
HBMC Section 17.44.210 provides that a Parking Plan may be approved by the Planning
Commission to allow for a reduction in the number of spaces required.The applicant shall
provide the information necessary to show that adequate parking will be provided for customers,
clients, visitors and employees. Factors such as common parking facilities, varied work shifts,
valet parking, unique features of the proposed uses, peak hours of the proposed use as compared
with other uses sharing the same parking facilities, and other methods of reducing parking
demand shall be taken into consideration.
32
Page 3 – PARK 17-3
The approved 2017 Parking Plan accounted for a 24,400 square foot addition to an existing
34,750 square foot church building and assumed the entire 950 Artesia Blvd. building would be
occupied by general office uses. The applicant requests a Parking Plan amendment to reflect
more accurate and precise building square footages being supplied for the Hope Chapel church
expansion. In addition, uses within the church annex building have been correctly defined as
assembly hall uses, ICAN and UCODE. Both programs are geared towards children and young
adults, most of which are of non-driving age and are dropped off or are disabled and unable to
drive.
The updated Parking Analysis estimates the future parking requirements for Hope Chapel and
Lazy Acres based upon the application of City Code parking ratios, by considering Hope
Chapel’s anticipated operations and church attendance after renovations have been completed,
and the use of shared parking methodology that takes into account a mixed use development
site’s physical setting. Compared to City Code parking calculations, a program/operations based
assessment and a shared parking demand analysis result in a more realistic representation of
mixed-use development’s parking needs. The applicant anticipates attendance and operations
will be fairly representative of congregation numbers and activity levels in the past. Despite an
additional church expansion of 1,745 square feet, with the addition totaling 26,145 square feet as
opposed to 24,400 square feet, the main sanctuary (primary space used to estimate busiest time
periods and parking needs for church uses) will be reduced in size by 349 square feet.
The City’s Traffic and Parking Consultant peer reviewed the updated Parking Analysis against
the prior approved parking analysis, dated February 9, 2017. The City’s consultant confirmed
that the proposed project would result a smaller parking demand, and that the parking surplus
will increase accordingly. As such, the church’s on-site parking supply will be adequate to
support the weekday and weekend peak parking demand. Peak parking demand during the
weekday (Friday) is forecast to occur at 7:00 P.M., resulting in a surplus of 41 spaces forecast for
the church’s on-site parking supply. Peak parking demand during the weekend (Sunday) is
forecast to occur at 1:00 P.M., resulting in a surplus of 18 spaces forecast for the church’s on-site
parking supply.
Out of 359 spaces, 12 accessible spaces with 3 van spaces are proposed. A maximum of 30% of
parking spaces may be compact and the project proposes 23.2% compact spaces. The applicant
requests the use of tandem parking and parallel parking as a form of providing required parking
and implementation of valet parking during peak periods. Tandem parking will be run and
managed by the church’s parking ministry staff. This service will be provided at peak hours on
Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. During peak parking times (Friday Night Church Service- 6:30
pm to 9:30 pm, Saturday Night Church Service- 5:30 pm to 8:30 pm, Sunday Church Service-
8:00 am to 1:15 pm) the church has parking ministry volunteers that help guide Lazy Acres
customers and Hope Chapel members to the available parking areas to optimize safe traffic flow
and use of all parking spaces. The parking ministry proposes 5-8 church members to provide
coordinated valet service and in-flow and out-flow tandem parking coordination during peak
hours and Saturdays and Sundays. Traffic will be directed one-way to maintain appropriate flow
of traffic and to assist with general circulation.
33
Page 4 – PARK 17-3
The concept of shared parking is widely recognized in the transportation planning industry and
accounts for fluctuations in parking demand over time for different types of uses within a
development. Due to the unique parking characteristics of the project’s mixed-use development
(i.e., retail, office and church development), opportunities for shared parking can be expected.
The hourly parking demand profiles utilized in the study and applied to the proposed Hope
Chapel Mixed-Use project are based on profiles developed by the Urban Land Institute (ULI).
The ULI publication presents hourly parking demand profiles for retail and office uses. For retail
uses, peak demand occurs between 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM on weekdays and between 2:00 PM
and 5:00 PM on weekends. For office uses, peak demand occurs between 10:00 AM and 12:00
PM on weekdays and weekends. The office parking demand profile was applied to the church
administration offices, church annex/offices and church maintenance/storage.
Tables 6 and 7 of the updated Parking Analysis present the combined weekday and weekend
parking demand for the overall Hope Chapel Mixed-Use project based on the shared parking
methodology. Table 6 shows that the weekday (Friday) peak parking demand in the aggregate of
318 spaces (215 spaces for Hope Chapel and 103 spaces for Lazy Acres and no spaces for the
Shorewood Commercial building) is forecast to occur at 7:00 p.m. Based on the on-site parking
supply of 359 spaces, a surplus of 41 spaces is forecast.
Table 7 indicates that the weekend (Sunday) peak parking demand for Lazy Acres and Hope
Chapel is forecast to occur at 1:00 p.m. and is equal to 341 spaces (228 spaces for Hope Chapel
and 110 spaces for Lazy Acres and 3 spaces for the Shorewood Commercial building). Based on
the on-site parking supply of 359 spaces, a surplus of 18 spaces is forecast.
Because hourly parking demand profiles for the church uses are not provided by ULI, the
parking demand for the church use was determined based on specific, detailed, operational
information provided by Hope Chapel. A detailed breakdown of the anticipated operations at
Hope Chapel after their proposed expansion/remodel is provided in the updated Parking
Analysis, and the Parking Plan amendment is conditioned to require Hope Chapel operations to
be consistent with the proposed operating times and uses.
Table 5 of the updated Parking Analysis converts the number of persons (based on expected
attendance by Hope Chapel) into the number of spaces for each 30-minute interval (by also using
the anticipated schedule of activities per day of the week, as reported by Hope Chapel) based on
the following conservative assumptions:
One adult per vehicle for Ministry Classes, Women’s Bible Study, and all church employees;
and
Two adults per vehicle for all church worship services in the main sanctuary.
Table 5 of the updated Parking Analysis shows peak weekday demand of 215 spaces and a peak
weekend demand of 228 spaces for Hope Chapel.
Given the shared updated Parking Analysis results, it is concluded that the 293 shared parking
space supply provided between Hope Chapel (2420 PCH), the Hope Chapel administration office
building (2306 PCH), the commercial office/annex building (950 Artesia Blvd) and Lazy Acres
34
Page 5 – PARK 17-3
(2510 PCH), with an additional 66spaces for the exclusive use of Lazy Acres (2510 PCH) for a
total of 359 parking spaces will be adequate parking to support weekday and weekend peak total
parking demand of 318 and 341 spaces respectively. Further, the Applicant has acknowledged an
existing parking access easement authorizing 2200 Pacific Coast Highway to use 25-40 parking
spaces Monday through Friday from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm at the 2420 Pacific Coast Highway
building. The updated Parking Analysis takes this easement into account and finds that there will
be a surplus of a minimum of 132 parking spaces Monday through Friday from 7:00 am to 6:00
pm, and further finds that there will be adequate parking to support weekday and weekend peak
total demand parking of 318 and 341 spaces respectively.
Based on the findings of the parking study, the future on-site supply of 359 spaces will be
adequate in meeting the parking needs of Hope Chapel (including the weekday demands of the
above-referenced 40-space parking access easement granted to 2200 Pacific Coast Highway
building, and presuming the proposed renovations and expansion to their main building), in
combination with the occupancy of the 2510 Pacific Coast Highway building by Lazy Acres and
950 Artesia Blvd by general office and assembly hall uses (ICAN and UCODE).
Section 5. Based on the foregoing, the Planning Commission hereby approves the
proposed Parking Plan amendment 17-3 subject to the following Conditions of Approval:
1. The proposed modifications to the building and uses and square footages of the
subject buildings shall be consistent with those identified in the Updated Parking
Analysis, dated May 3, 2018, and shall be substantially consistent with plans and

as set out below. The Community Development Director shall review and may
approve minor modifications that do not otherwise conflict with the Municipal Code
or requirements of this approval, provided that the use is not changed, intensity of
use is not increased and the arrangement of space would not increase negative
impacts. Any additional private or public parking access easement(s) not specifically
referenced herein that would affect parking at 950 Artesia Boulevard, 2306, 2420
and 2510 Pacific Coast Highway shall require review and approval of a Parking
Plan Amendment by the Planning Commission.
a. 2420 Pacific Coast Highway = existing approximately 34,750 square foot
main/church building with a proposed approximately 26,145 square foot
expansion;
b. 2306 Pacific Coast Highway = approximately 10,000 square foot administration
offices for Hope Chapel;
c. 2510 Pacific Coast Highway = approximately 29,563 square foot supermarket
(Lazy Acres Market) with approximately 1,800 square feet of ancillary outdoor
dining;
d. 950 Artesia Boulevard = approximately 14,739 square feet multi-tenant
commercial building with approximately 8,000 square feet of proposed general

Subject: Updated Parking Analysis for the Hope Chapel Project
Hermosa Beach, California
Dear Mr. Chamberlain:
Linscott, Law & Greenspan, Engineers (LLG) is pleased to submit this updated
Parking Analysis for the Hope Chapel Project, which includes the three following
components:
1. Future Church renovations called for in the Master Plan
2. City-approved re-occupancy of an existing building within property owned by
Hope Chapel by Lazy Acres Grocery Market
3. Structural improvements to a commercial office building at 950 Artesia
Boulevard
Briefly, based on the findings of this report, it is concluded that the Church’s 192-
space supply, Lazy Acres Grocery Market’s 119-space supply, and 48 off-site spaces
in the 950 Artesia Boulevard building parking lot will be adequate to support the
weekday and weekend total peak parking demand of 318 spaces and 341 spaces,
respectively.
This letter report updates our prior parking studies with square footage refinements
related to the Church Master Plan renovations (Project Component 1). No changes
have been made to the proposed Lazy Acres Grocery Market (Project Component 2),
its parking supply allocations, and the sharing of parking spaces between the Market
and the Church, as previously approved by the City. Although seismic retrofit and
interior modifications/energy/cosmetic upgrades are planned for the 950 Artesia
Boulevard building, there will be no changes to square footage, land use, and parking
layout; therefore, this building is treated as a “standalone” facility for parking study
purposes. In addition, this study accounts for up to 40 spaces at Hope Chapel that the
2200 Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) office building may use from 7:00 AM until 6:00
PM on Monday through Friday (not on Saturday or Sunday). The following provides
detailed descriptions of each component of the Project:

Project Component 1: The existing Hope Chapel properties consist of a 34,750-SF
main/church building (located at 2420 Pacific Coast Highway), and a 10,000-SF
office building that houses Hope Chapel’s administrative offices (located at 2306
Pacific Coast Highway). Proposed renovations for Hope Chapel will add 26,145 SF
to the main/church building, of which 349 SF corresponds to the net reduction of the
main sanctuary.
Project Component 2: The City has previously approved the re-occupancy of an
existing building within property owned by Hope Chapel by Lazy Acres Grocery
Market. The proposed Lazy Acres Grocery Market includes the renovation of 29,653
SF of vacant space within Hope Chapel property (formerly occupied by Albertsons
supermarket, and most recently used by the Church as a teen center).
Project Component 3: The Church also owns an existing 14,739-SF commercial
office building at 950 Artesia Boulevard. This building is currently occupied by
Brighton Escrow, UCode, and a realty office. The Church intends to undertake an
earthquake retrofit and modernization of this building, with a change in land use from
all general office to include partial assembly hall uses (ICAN and UCode) that
generate less parking demand due to their unique operational characteristics. The
footprint and square footage of the building will not be changed.
The parking analysis estimates the future parking requirements for Hope Chapel and
Lazy Acres based upon the application of City Code parking ratios, by considering
Hope Chapel’s anticipated operations and church attendance after renovations have
been completed, and the use of the Shared Parking methodology that takes into
account a mixed-use development site’s physical setting. Compared to City Code
parking calculations, a program/operations-based assessment and a shared parking
demand analysis result in a more realistic representation of a mixed-use
development’s parking needs. Our method of analysis, findings, and conclusions are
described in detail in the following sections of this report.
Table 1 presents the development summary for the project components. As shown,
the future Church will be 70,895 SF, the City-approved Lazy Acres Grocery Market
will be 29,653 SF, and the 14,739-SF commercial building at 950 Artesia Boulevard
will remain the same.
CHURCH OPERATIONS
According to Hope Chapel representatives, anticipated attendance and operations are
fairly representative of congregation numbers and activity levels in the past. This is
validated by the fact that, despite the 26,145 SF of expansion proposed for the Hope
Chapel main building, the main sanctuary (the primary space used to estimate busiest
time periods and parking needs for churches) will be reduced in size by 349 SF.

CITY PARKING CODE REQUIREMENTS
To determine the number of parking spaces required to support the three components
of the Project, the parking demand was first calculated using parking codes per the
City of Hermosa Beach Municipal Code, Section 17.44.030 (Off-Street Parking
Requirements). Table 2 summarizes the City Code ratios applied and City Code
parking calculations.
As indicated in the green highlighted portions of Table 2, the City Code parking
requirements for the Church sanctuary and administrative office total 699 spaces.
Comparing this 699-space Code requirement against the Church supply of 192 spaces
(comprised of 100 Hope Chapel-dedicated spaces and 92 shared parking spaces with
Lazy Acres Grocery Market) results in a Code-based deficiency of 507 spaces.
For clarity, the City Code-based calculations can be considered to result in very
conservative estimates of Hope Chapel’s parking demand since it ignores the fact that
the different components of a church operate at different times of day or on different
days of the week, and that the Fellowship Hall, Children’s
Church/Classrooms/Nursery, Youth Program Areas, Small Chapel, Rehearsal Room,
Café, and Steward Areas do not generate additive parking demand (i.e., the users of
these facilities do not drive and/or have already been represented in parking demand
calculated for the main sanctuary and church classrooms).

The blue highlighted sections of Table 2 indicate that the City Code parking
requirement for Lazy Acres Grocery Market is 119 spaces. Comparing this 119-
space Code requirement against the Market supply of 119 spaces (comprised of 66
Market-dedicated spaces and 53 shared parking spaces with the Church) shows that
its City Code requirement of 119 spaces is fully met by its 119-space supply. These
findings are consistent with the City’s prior approval for Lazy Acres.
As indicated in the orange highlighted portions of Table 2, for the 950 Artesia
Boulevard building, the City Code requirement established under existing
entitlements is 44 spaces. Comparing this 44-space existing legal non-conforming
requirement against the building’s supply of 48 spaces results in a Code-based surplus
of 4 spaces.
PARKING DEMAND ANALYSIS
Going beyond City Code parking calculations, the parking analysis for the Church
also involves determining the expected parking needs from application of the shared
parking methodology, which is based on parking usage patterns by time-of-day
(recognizes that the parking demand for each land use component varies by time of
day, day of week, and/or month of year).
Shared Parking Methodology
The concept of Shared Parking, which is widely recognized in the transportation
planning industry, accounts for the fluctuations in parking demand over time for
different types of land uses within a development. Due to the unique parking
characteristics of the Project, opportunities for shared parking can be expected. The
analytical procedures for Shared Parking Analyses are well documented in the Shared
Parking, 2nd Edition publication by the Urban Land Institute (ULI).
The hourly parking demand profiles (expressed in percent of peak demand) utilized in
this study and applied to the Project are based on profiles developed by ULI. The
ULI publication presents hourly parking demand profiles for retail uses and office
uses. These factors present a profile of parking demand over time and have been used
directly, by land use type, in the analysis of this project.
For retail uses, peak demand occurs between 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM on weekdays
and between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM on weekends. The retail parking demand profile
was applied to Lazy Acres and the church cafe.
For office uses, peak demand occurs between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM on weekdays
and weekends. The office parking demand profile was applied to the church
administration offices, and church maintenance/storage.

Hourly parking demand profiles for the remaining church uses (i.e. Main Sanctuary,
Fellowship Hall, Children’s Church, Classrooms, etc.) are not provided in the ULI
Shared Parking, 2nd Edition publication. As such, the parking demand for these uses
was determined based on operational information provided by Hope Chapel.
Shared Parking Analysis – Church Component Only
Tables 3 and 4 present the weekday (Friday) and weekend (Sunday) parking demand
for the Church components based on the Shared Parking methodology, and the
application of City Code parking ratios to the various land use components of Hope
Chapel. Columns (2) through (12) of these tables present the parking accumulation
characteristics and parking demand of each component of Hope Chapel for the hours
of 6:00 AM to midnight. Column (13) presents the shared parking demand for the
church on an hourly basis, while Column (14) summarizes the hourly parking
surplus/deficiency for the Church compared to an on-site parking supply of 192
spaces.
In Table 3, Column (15) adds to the supply from 6:00 PM to 12:00 AM/midnight the
48 spaces in the 950 Artesia Boulevard parking, which are made available to the
Church lot after 6:00 PM on a Friday.
In Table 4, Column (15) adds to the supply 45 available spaces in the 950 Artesia
Boulevard parking lot on a Sunday. These 45 spaces are calculated from the 48-space
supply less the UCode demand of 3 spaces (the building is closed on Sunday, with the
the exception of UCode).
Column (13) of Table 3 shows that the weekday (Friday) peak parking demand for
the Church is forecast to occur at 7:00 PM with a peak demand of 137 spaces. Based
on Hope Chapel’s on-site parking supply of 192 spaces, a surplus of 55 spaces is
forecast (per Column 14). Surpluses would be greater when available parking spaces
from 950 Artesia Boulevard are accounted for; 103 spaces, specifically, as presented
in Column (15).
Column (13) of Table 4 indicates that the weekend (Sunday) peak parking demand
for the Church is forecast to occur at 12:00 PM/noon with a peak demand of 134
spaces. Based on Hope Chapel’s on-site parking supply of 192 spaces, a surplus of
58 spaces is forecast (per Column 14). Surpluses would be greater when available
parking spaces from 950 Artesia Boulevard are accounted for; 103 spaces,
specifically, as presented in Column (15).
Based on the above findings, it is concluded that the Church’s on-site supply will be
adequate to support the weekday and weekend peak parking demand. In addition,
parking contingencies are provided by off-site parking spaces in 950 Artesia
Boulevard.

Operations-Based Parking Analysis – Church Component Only
Table 5 presents a detailed summary of future operations for Hope Chapel,
anticipated attendance for church worship services, Ministry Classes, Children’s
Church, Youth Program, number of employees, and schedule of activities.
Based on the operational information provided by Hope Chapel, it was determined
that the primary facilities that would generate parking demand are the main sanctuary
(where Church congregation services and Women’s Bible Study are held), Church
classrooms (where Ministry classes are held), and Church employee areas (to include
the main building, and Church administration building). It should also be noted that
the main sanctuary will not be used concurrently with the Church classrooms.
The Fellowship Hall, Children’s Classrooms, Youth Program areas, Small Chapel,
Rehearsal Room, Café, and office/Steward Areas, plus all ancillary uses/common
areas, do not generate additive parking demand, because the users of these facilities
do not drive and/or have already been represented in parking demand calculated for
the main sanctuary and Church classrooms.
Table 5 converts the number of persons (based on expected attendance by Hope
Chapel) into the number of spaces for each 30-minute interval (by also using the
anticipated schedule of activities per day of the week, as reported by Hope Chapel
staff) based on the following conservative assumptions:
One adult per vehicle for Ministry Classes, Women’s Bible Study, and all
church employees
Two adults per vehicle for all church worship services in the main sanctuary
As indicated on the bottom portion of Table 5, the Church operations-based
assessment results in a peak weekday (Friday, specifically) demand of 215 spaces,
and a peak weekend (Sunday, specifically) demand of 228 spaces. It should be noted
that these demand estimates are greater than the peak values reported previously on
Tables 3 and 4 (137 spaces and 134 spaces, respectively).
Based on the above comparisons, it is concluded that the Church’s operations-based,
peak demand estimates of 215 spaces for weekday/Friday and 228 spaces for
weekend/Sunday would provide the most conservative basis for the “combined”
shared parking analysis of all three Project components (Church, Lazy Acres, 950
Artesia Boulevard), as presented in the next section.
Combined Shared Parking Analysis – Church, Lazy Acres, 950 Artesia Blvd.,
and 2200 PCH

methodology. As indicated previously, in addition to the Church, Lazy Acres, and
the 950 Artesia Boulevard commercial building, this study accounts for up to 40
spaces at Hope Chapel that the 2200 PCH office building may use from 7:00 AM
until 6:00 PM on Monday through Friday (not on Saturday or Sunday).
Columns (2) through (5) of Tables 6 and 7 present the total parking demand of Hope
Chapel (i.e., operations-based hourly demand, as derived from Table 5), Lazy Acres
(i.e., demand estimated through ULI’s Shared Parking methodology and City Code
ratio for retail), the commercial building at 950 Artesia Boulevard, and the office
building at 2200 PCH, respectively, for the hours of 6:00 AM to midnight. Column
(6) presents the total shared parking demand on an hourly basis, while Columns (7)
and (8) summarize the total parking supply and resulting parking surplus or
deficiency.
Column (6) of Table 6 shows that the weekday (Friday) peak parking demand in the
aggregate of 318 spaces is forecast to occur at 7:00 PM (215 spaces for Hope Chapel,
103 spaces for Lazy Acres, and no demand for 950 Artesia Boulevard and 2200
PCH). Based on the on-site parking supply of 359 spaces, a surplus of 41 spaces is
forecast (Column 8) during the Friday evening church service that starts at 6:30 PM.
Column (6) of Table 7 shows that the weekend (Sunday) peak parking demand in the
aggregate of 341 spaces is expected to occur at 1:00 PM (228 spaces for Hope
Chapel, 110 spaces for Lazy Acres, 3 spaces for UCode at 950 Artesia Boulevard,
and no demand for 2200 PCH). Based on the on-site parking supply of 359 spaces, a
surplus of 18 spaces is forecast (Column 8) during the second Sunday morning
church service that is from 11:00 AM to 1:15 PM.
Given the above shared parking analysis results, it is concluded that the Church’s
192-space supply, Lazy Acres Grocery Market’s 119-space supply, and 48 off-site
spaces in the 950 Artesia Boulevard building parking lot will be adequate to support
the weekday total peak demand of 318 spaces (including weekday demand for 2200
PCH from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM), and weekend total peak demand of 341 spaces.

City of Hermosa Beach
PRE DEMOLITION MEETING PROCEDURES
Starting on January 1, 2014, the City of Hermosa Beach requires the following steps to be
taken prior to our issuing a permit for demolition in conjunction with any project where
50% or more of the existing structure is to be demolished.
This effort is being made to reduce complaints from adjacent neighbors and help the
project move forward in a more peaceful and timely manner than is sometimes the case.
1. Neighbor notification – the Owner or Primary Contractor must issue a letter to all
residences within 100’ of the job site. The letter must be issued at least five days
before any demolition is undertaken and must include; type of work to be done,
date of work start, names and contact numbers for the Owner and Builder,
demolition contractor and shoring contractor as applicable. Please also include
my name and contact information, and inform the recipients of the letter that you
will meet with them on a specific day prior to commencing demolition.
2. It is STRONGLY ADVISED that the Owner/Contractor bring a video recorder to
the site on the day and time specified in the letter for the meeting. A building
inspector will attend as well and will walk the adjacent properties with you while
you video their condition at that time.
3. We will inform you and the neighbors of the following; construction hours, mesh
screening required on construction fencing and scaffolding, prohibitions against
blocking the street or driveways, and the penalties for violation.
4. We will also review the City code regarding damage to adjacent property, and be
there to answer questions from neighbors and project representatives alike.
Thanks,
Bob Rollins

New eComment for Planning Commission
5/15/18
Stephen Vollucci submitted a new eComment.
Meeting: Planning Commission 5/15/18
Item: 7. REPORT 18-0317 Conditional Use Permit Amendment 17-4,Precise Development Plan
17-11, and Parking Plan Amendment 17-3 to allow a cumulative approximately 26,000 gross sq.
ft. addition in conjunction with a religious institution (Hope Chapel) to include a worship and
congregation hall, meeting spaces, fellowship space and youth center at an existing
approximately 35,000 sq. ft. building for a total of approximately 61,000 gross sq. ft. located at
2420 Pacific Coast Highway and use of an alternative property corner point elevation for
purposes of determining building height, with less than required parking based on shared
parking with parking lots at 950 Artesia Boulevard and 2306, 2420 and 2510 Pacific Coast
Highway; and determination that the project is categorically exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
eComment: Dear Chairperson Saemann and Commission Members, We live immediately
adjacent to Hope Chapel on Borden Avenue, and we, along with our many neighbors on Borden
and Prospect Avenues, and 21st, 24th, and Rhodes Streets, vehemently oppose Hope Chapel’s
expansion of their business activities, and their request for a Conditional Use Permit
Amendment, Precise Development Plan 17-11, Parking Plan Amendment CUP, and a
determination that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality
Act (collectively, the “Proposal”) for several reasons: 1. NOISE. Hope Chapel has repeatedly
violated and continues to violate its current CUP with regard to hours of operation. Cars and
people enter and exit their loud, clunking Borden Ave parking garage gate and metal exit doors
from the parking structure and adjacent administrative office space as early as 5:00 am, and as
late as midnight. Any expansion of their use would only exacerbate these problems further and
result in permanent, significant, and unavoidable impacts. 2. TRAFFIC & PARKING. Hope
Chapel’s many activities regularly take up the very limited street parking spaces available on
Borden Avenue, 21st Street, and Prospect Avenue, both during the day and well into the
evenings. Friday evenings and Saturdays are particularly bad for all the surrounding neighbors
when their services are held. The resulting expanded operations and additional customers would
make the parking situation untenable for the surrounding neighborhoods, and result in
permanent, significant, and unavoidable impacts. 3. ZONING & GENERAL PLAN. A categorical
exemption requires that a “project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and
all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulation.”
The existing main structure does not comply with current setback requirements, nor would the
proposed project – especially along the southerly line of the main structure which is presently,
and as would remain as proposed, a 35-foot high hollow block wall on zero lot line adjacent to
single-family residential property. HBMC requirements state that “… a commercial building
adjacent to a residential zone must provide a minimum eight-foot setback with an additional two
feet for each story over the first on the rear and side yard areas…” and be landscaped per the
76
HBMC requirements. Hope Chapel’s Proposal seeks to avoid having to meet this standard on
the south side by falsely claiming that, technically, no work is occurring on the south side of the
building so the existing non-conforming building setback is somehow ok. The south side 35 foot
high wall is hollow, with no sound attenuation, likely unreinforced, and in a serious seismic event,
would likely crush our home, all of us, and our adjacent neighbors and their homes. Again, the
project as proposed would result in permanent, significant, and unavoidable impacts. 4.
ECONOMIC. Perhaps most importantly, the Hope Chapel facility sits on an almost five acre
prime commercial property which is designated as a ‘Commercial Gateway’ site in PLAN
Hermosa. We support and applaud the PLAN, and efforts by the City leadership to generate
revenue from all available sources - notably the highest and best use development of the
commercial gateways into our small City. Such development would bring considerable and badly
needed sales and property tax revenue to support our fine but grossly underfunded schools, and
our aging infrastructure and City facilities (e.g. library, community center, city hall, fire and police,
roads, sewers, etc.). Hope Chapel brings little of either revenue stream into the city presently,
and any expansion would cement that non-revenue scenario indefinitely – depriving our fine
schools and city services of a significant source of regular and critically needed revenue for
many, many, many decades to come, and would truly result in permanent, significant, and
unavoidable negative economic impacts to the city. We and our approximately 200 neighbors
living near the Hope Chapel site are very concerned with this Proposal, and would ask that you
consider not only our needs, but the greater needs of almost 20,000 Hermosans, and the long-
term business and economic goals of the City, by rejecting the Proposal; and require a more
thorough CEQA evaluation of the short and long-term unavoidable, permanent, and significant
impacts it would cause. We thank you for your valuable service to our community, and look
forward to your further careful consideration of this very important matter at the May 15th
Planning Commission meeting . Thank you. Sincerely, Stephen and Mary Frances Vollucci cc:

REPORT 18-0318
North of the subject site is a commercial shopping center and Journey of Faith church and school in
Manhattan Beach. East of the subject site is a commercial office building and low density residential
uses. Immediately south of the subject site at 2411 Prospect Avenue is an existing 64-unit residential
condominium, and to the west will be a supermarket (Lazy Acres, 2510 Hope Chapel church, and a
commercial shopping center (southeast corner of PCH and Artesia Blvd). A parking lot is located
between the supermarket and the subject site. There are a total of 359 required parking spaces for
the four buildings and the mix of uses. The proposed Parking Plan amendment (a companion item on
tonight’s agenda) will provide shared parking between the properties at 950 Artesia Blvd. and 2306,
2420 and 2510 PCH.
Applicant Request
The applicant proposes assembly hall uses (ICAN and UCODE) to provide educational programs for
children and young adults within an existing commercial building at 950 Artesia Boulevard. UCODE
has been operating at the site for approximately 5 years as an office/tutoring use, and with the City’s
adoption in June 2017 of the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA)
ordinance, the use is considered an assembly hall use and now requires a CUP. The new use, ICAN,
will also be an assembly hall use and requires a CUP.
The 6,739 sq. ft. ground floor area will be occupied by UCODE and ICAN while the 8,000 sq. ft.
second floor will be occupied by Brighton Escrow and three future general office tenants. The purview
of the Planning Commission is limited to the application for assembly hall uses (UCODE and ICAN).
Area and Use Summary Table
Suite Number Use/Business Square Footage
950 Vacant general office/retail use 3,870 sq. ft.
960 Vacant general office/retail use 1,208 sq. ft.
966 Vacant general office/retail use 400 sq. ft.
970 Brighton Escrow Office 2,522 sq. ft.
972 UCODE Trade School (assembly hall use)1,562 sq. ft.
972 ICAN (assembly hall use)5,177 sq. ft.
Total 14,739 sq. ft.
Analysis
The purpose of the C-3 zone is to provide opportunities for a full range of office, retail, and service
businesses deemed suitable for the city, and appropriate for the PCH and Aviation Blvd. commercial
corridors, including businesses not appropriate for other zones because they attract heavy vehicular
traffic or have specific adverse impacts. The training/educational centers are defined as assembly
halls and are conditionally permitted uses in the C-3 zone. The Hermosa Beach Municipal Code
(HBMC) defines an assembly hall as any building, or portion of a building, used for public or private
gatherings. For example, and without limitation, “ assembly hall" includes convention/meeting halls,
business schools, funeral homes, gymnasium/health and fitness centers, educational institutions (K-
12), game arcades with five (5) or more machines, miniature golf courses, large day spas, movie

theaters, museums, music academies, religious institutions, and skating rinks, whether available for
public or private use.
ICAN
ICAN is a life skill and employment training center for persons with developmental disabilities. The
facility will contain a commercial kitchen as a training space for disabled clients with developmental
disabilities only and will provide disabled clients with a learning center to prepare them for work in
their community and in the food services industry. The use will obtain small outside catering contracts
so disabled clients can learn to produce real life products, learn customer service skills and deliver
goods (with assistance of an employee driver) such as coffee, tea and baked goods to offices and
events. Disabled clients will also learn how to prepare basic meals that can be re-created in their
personal lives.
The business is licensed by the state of California to serve a maximum of 30 clients on-site per day,
Monday through Friday between 9:00 am through 2:30 pm. Employees on-site per day are limited by
the state of California to a maximum of 10 persons. ICAN is a non-profit organization launched by
Hope Chapel. As part of the proposed Parking Plan amendment 17-3, employees and parents will be
able to park within any of the shared parking spaces identified at 950 Artesia Boulevard as well as
2306, 2420 and 2510 PCH. Parking demands are low due to the nature of the business and clientele
as described above because all clients receive transportation services and/or are dropped off and
picked up. Operating hours are limited to Monday through Friday between 9am to 4:30 pm (with
classes concluding by 2:30pm), and the business is closed Saturday and Sunday.
The proposed ICAN floor plan includes an open entry lobby, training kitchen, three
program/instruction rooms (computer, art, and life skill), three offices, a conference and breakroom,
restrooms and storage and janitorial closets.
UCODE
UCODE teaches kids and teens how to use technology and coding skills to solve problems through
labs, camps and events. Students create applications for mobile devices, develop websites, program
software and design games. A majority of students are of non-driving age and are dropped off and
picked up. The use provides two training groups per two-hour session, and each training group has
six to eight students. There are two to three employees per training group and an average of two
parents may be on-site for questions and answers. Instruction hours are limited to Monday through
Friday between 3:00 pm and 7:00 pm and Saturday and Sunday between 10:00 am and 4:00 pm.
The proposed UCODE floor plan includes an entry lobby which contains the academic director’s
desk, three classrooms with a total of 32 seats, a parent and guest seating room, flexible workstation
space and a restroom and storage closet at the southwest corner of the tenant space.
Brighton Escrow office hours are limited to Monday through Friday between 9:00 am and 5:00 pm
and will be closed Saturday and Sunday.
A full analysis of the available parking for the site is provided in the April 17, 2018 Planning
Commission staff report related to Hope Chapel and is linked in the attachment section. Approval of

REPORT 18-0318
Parking Plan amendment for shared parking at 950 Artesia Boulevard and 2306, 2420 and 2510 PCH
(PARK 17-3), which is a companion item on tonight’s agenda.
CUP Criteria
Pursuant to HBMC Section 17.40.020, a CUP is required for this project and the section establishes
criteria, conditions and standards for reviewing, granting and amending CUPs in order to reduce the
potential for adverse secondary land use impacts. Below is an analysis of project compliance with the
CUP criteria, conditions and standards.
A. Distance from existing residential uses;
A 64-unit residential condominium is located immediately south of the subject property at 2411
Prospect Avenue, and additional low density residential uses are located east of the subject site
in Manhattan Beach. The applicant proposes that the assembly hall uses be maintained indoors.
In addition, pursuant to HBMC Section 8.24.040, the City’s Noise Ordinance restricts commercial
activities from producing noise that is plainly audible from a residential dwelling unit’s property
line from 10:00 pm to 8:00 am daily. Conditions of approval include that the project remain in
substantial conformance with the proposed operating days, hours, services and number of
attendees and employees as detailed in the updated Parking Analysis, dated May 7, 2018; and
that all use operations be fully contained within the building.
B. The amount of existing or proposed off-street parking facilities, and its distance from the
proposed use;
The subject site is part of a proposed shared Parking Plan amendment (PARK 17-3), which
appears as a companion item on tonight’s agenda. The proposed Parking Plan amendment
includes a total aggregate of 359 parking spaces provided by the aforementioned properties to
support the peak weekday and peak weekend parking demand. Parking at 2306, 2420, 2510
PCH and 950 Artesia Blvd, are internally connected so that vehicles can move from one shared
parking lot to another without accessing the public streets. A parking study was provided by the
applicant’s parking consultant, and reviewed and approved by the City’s traffic and parking
consultant, and staff is recommending approval. A full analysis of the available parking for the
site is provided in the April 17, 2018 Planning Commission staff report related to Hope Chapel
(link attached).
C. Location of and distance to churches, schools, hospitals and public playgrounds;
Churches, schools, hospitals and public playgrounds are considered sensitive receptors. These
are areas where the occupants are more susceptible than the general public to adverse effects of
exposure to toxic chemicals, pesticides, other pollutants/contaminants, and noise. Journey of
Faith Christian Church in Manhattan Beach is located approximately 120 feet northeast of the
subject property and Mira Costa High School, also in Manhattan Beach, is located approximately
440 feet northeast of the subject property. The assembly hall use operations do not involve toxic
chemicals, pesticides, other pollutants/contaminants. Noise from the assembly hall operations
will be contained within the fully enclosed building. Therefore, adverse impacts are not
anticipated.
D. The combination of uses proposed;
The subject site is located adjacent to other Hope Chapel church owned and operated buildings
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 4 of 8
powered by Legistar™81
Staff Report
REPORT 18-0318
which include the approximately 30,000 sq. ft. Lazy Acres market building at 2510 PCH, the
approximately 60,895 sq. ft. Hope Chapel church building at 2420 PCH and the approximately
10,000 sq. ft. church administration office building at 2306 PCH. Close proximity to these
complementary uses facilitates shared parking facilities with the adjacent buildings. The types of
uses and hours of operation do not negatively impact one another and as such are considered
compatible.
E. Precautions taken by the owner or operator of the proposed establishment to assure the
compatibility of the use with surrounding uses;
The property owner, Hope Chapel, has applied for a shared Parking Plan amendment (17-3),
which appears as a companion item on tonight’s agenda. Hope Chapel has taken precautions to
ensure that the church hours and operations, as well as those of the other tenants on the subject
sites, do not negatively impact one another or the surrounding properties, and that there is
adequate parking for all users on the sites during peak periods.
F. The relationship of the proposed business-generated traffic volume and the size of streets
serving the area;
The applicant supplied a Traffic Impact Analysis Addendum, dated March 6, 2018, to assess
adjustments and clarification of assembly hall (ICAN and UCODE which are educational
programs geared towards children and young adults) uses within the commercial building located
at 950 Artesia Blvd. The addendum was peer reviewed by the City’s Traffic Engineer who
confirmed that the changes in use would not result in any significant impacts from traffic
generated by the project, either during weekdays or weekends (TJW Engineering, March 2018).
Access to the commercial building is via a shared driveway on the north side of Artesia Blvd. and
a driveway on the west side of Prospect Avenue. Artesia Blvd. is a major arterial street and
Prospect Avenue is a minor arterial street and are corridors with high traffic volumes capable of
accommodating the expected traffic demand.
G. The proposed exterior signs and decor, and the compatibility thereof with existing
establishments in the area;
The façade and structural retrofit alterations are not a part of this application. A sign permit is
required for any new signage at the subject site in conformance with HBMC Section 17.50, and
are subject to review and approval by City Planning staff.
H. The number of similar establishments or uses within close proximity to the proposed
establishment;
Journey of Faith Christian Church (an assembly use) on Artesia Boulevard in Manhattan Beach
is the nearest church use, approximately 120 feet northeast from the subject property. Due to its
location on the opposite side of Artesia Boulevard, a major arterial road, the fact that Journey of
Faith Christian Church has been in operation at this location for many years, and because
parking is available for the assembly hall uses on its adjoining properties through a shared
parking plan amendment, impacts associated with concentration of similar establishments are
not anticipated.
I. Noise, odor, dust and/or vibration that may be generated by the proposed use;
The proposed assembly hall uses do not provide live entertainment and all uses will be

powered by Legistar™82
Staff Report
REPORT 18-0318
contained within the existing building. Therefore, it is not anticipated that other nearby
commercial or residential uses would be affected. Conditions of approval are included in the draft
resolution that require: noise emanating from the property shall be within the limitations
prescribed by the City’s Noise Ordinance and the building shall be equipped with air conditioning
to maximize sound proofing. A condition of approval is included in the proposed resolution
requiring all product pick-up and delivery and student/client pick-up and drop-off shall be limited
to the east (Prospect Avenue) parking lot only and shall comply with the Hermosa Beach Noise
Ordinance.
The short duration of noise events generated during construction will temporarily result in
increased ambient noise levels, but will not significantly impact the ambient noise environment
over the long term or for a significant period of time. Compliance with the City’s Noise Ordinance,
will effectively ensure that the project does not exceed adopted standards and successfully
avoids significant noise impacts.
J. Impact of the proposed use to the city’s infrastructure, and/or services;
The site has historically operated as an office building with available utilities and services for the
proposed assembly hall uses. As such, the proposed uses will not place additional demand on
the City’s infrastructure or services.
K. Will the establishment contribute to a concentration of similar outlets in the area;
The proposed assembly uses, in combination with office and retail uses within the building, and
retail and church uses on adjoining sites, will complement one another with shared parking
provided for the combination of uses proposed and will not result in a negative concentration of
similar outlets in the area. No negative impacts are anticipated.
L. 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 additional considerations noted.
Environmental Determination:
Staff finds the project to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as it
meets all of the criteria for Infill Development Projects defined in CEQA Section 15332 because:
1.The project is consistent with applicable General Plan designation and policies as well as
applicable zoning designation and regulations;
2.The proposed project occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres
substantially surrounded by urban uses;
3.The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species;
4.Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air
quality, or water quality; and
5.The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services because this is
an existing church use that is expanding and all utilities have capacity for the increased use.
General Plan Consistency:
The commercial building is located within the Gateway Commercial General Plan land use area,
which is located at key entryways and intersections to Hermosa Beach to offer a greater variety of
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 6 of 8

Staff Report
REPORT 18-0318
employment, retail, and economic activity to the community. This designation also plays a role in
providing services and amenities to visitors and the region and is intended to provide both
commercial services as well as facilities that benefit the local community. Appropriate land uses
include public assembly, recreational, and other community facilities which are determined to be
compatible with and oriented towards enhancing the Gateway Commercial District. Parking facilities
are to serve on-site uses and are encouraged to explore shared parking agreements with nearby
commercial uses to encourage a ‘park once’ strategy.
General Plan Character Area
The site is located within the General Plan character area identified as the Pacific Coast Highway
Corridor, which is to serve as the primary entry point into the city as well as a pass-through corridor
between Manhattan Beach and the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The intent of this character area is to
enhance building design and form, transform streetscapes and gateways to serve pedestrians and
improve vehicular circulation. Consolidated parking facilities are to be added at key locations along
the corridor.
The intended distribution of land uses includes a mix of office and commercial uses along the corridor
to serve both local residents and the region, which are organized around key activity nodes, with
limited residential uses.
The proposed assembly hall uses are considered appropriate uses within this area, and with use of
shared parking, compatibility with adjacent uses, its location along a transit-supported arterial, and
improvements to the public realm, the proposed uses are consistent with the goals and the following
policies of the General Plan: Land Use policies 1.1 (diverse and distributed land use pattern), 1.2
(focused infill potential), 1.3 (access to daily activities), 1.5 (balance resident and visitor needs), 1.6
(scale and context). 1.10 (transition between uses), 2.8 (neighborhood transitions) and13.2 (social
and health needs). Perfect consistency is not required with all general plan policies. Consistency
means that the project does not impede the City’s ability to meet its general plan goals. The
proposed uses are in line with the City’s long term vision set out in the PLAN and the project allows
the city to meet its goals.
Summary
Based on the analysis above, the proposed Conditional Use Permit 18-4, as conditioned, is
consistent with the zoning code and PLAN Hermosa. Staff recommends the Planning Commission
adopt the attached resolution approving the CUP and determining that the project is categorically
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

P.C. RESOLUTION 18-XX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA
BEACH, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 18-4 TO ALLOW
FOR ASSEMBLY HALL USES (ICAN AND UCODE) TO PROVIDE EDUCATIONAL
PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS WITHIN AN EXISTING
COMMERCIAL BUILDING AT 950 ARTESIA BOULEVARD, AND DETERMINATION
THAT THE PROJECT IS CATEGORICALLY 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. An application was filed by Hope Chapel (International Church of the Foursquare
Gospel) on April 11, 2018 requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit 18-4 to allow for assembly
hall uses (ICAN and UCODE) to provide educational programs for children and young adults within
an existing commercial building at 950 Artesia Boulevard, and determination that the project is
categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Section 2. The Planning Commission conducted duly noticed public hearing to consider the
application on May 15, 2018, at which time testimony and evidence, both oral and written, was
presented to and considered by the Planning Commission.
Section 3. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, the project is categorically
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as it meets all of the criteria for In-fill
Development Projects defined in CEQA Section 15332 because:
1. The project is consistent with applicable General Plan designation and policies as well as
applicable zoning designation and regulations;
2. The proposed project occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres
substantially surrounded by urban uses;
3. The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species;
4. Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air
quality, or water quality; and
5. The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services because this is an
existing church use that is expanding and all utilities have capacity for the increased use.
Section 4. Based on the testimony and evidence received, the Planning Commission makes the
following findings pertaining to the application for the Conditional Use Permit pursuant to the criteria
in Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) Section 17.40.020.
A. Distance from existing residential uses;
A 64-unit residential condominium is located immediately south of the subject property at 2411
Prospect Avenue, and additional low density residential uses are located east of the subject site in
Manhattan Beach. The applicant proposes that the assembly hall uses be maintained indoors. In
addition, pursuant to HBMC Section 8.24.040, the City’s Noise Ordinance restricts commercial
activities from producing noise that is plainly audible from a residential dwelling unit’s property
line from 10:00 pm to 8:00 am daily. Conditions of approval include that the project remain in
substantial conformance with the proposed operating days, hours, services and number of
86
2
attendees and employees as detailed in the updated Parking Analysis, dated May 7, 2018; and that
all use operations be fully contained within the building.
B. The amount of existing or proposed off-street parking facilities, and its distance from the
proposed use;
The subject site is part of a proposed shared Parking Plan amendment (PARK 17-3), which
appears as a companion item on tonight’s agenda. The proposed Parking Plan amendment
includes a total aggregate of 359 parking spaces provided by the aforementioned properties to
support the peak weekday and peak weekend parking demand. Parking at 2306, 2420, 2510 PCH
and 950 Artesia Blvd, are internally connected so that vehicles can move from one shared parking
lot to another without accessing the public streets. A parking study was provided by the
applicant’s parking consultant, and reviewed and approved by the City’s traffic and parking
consultant, and staff is recommending approval. A full analysis of the available parking for the
site is provided in the April 17, 2018 Planning Commission staff report related to Hope Chapel
(link attached).
C. Location of and distance to churches, schools, hospitals and public playgrounds;
Churches, schools, hospitals and public playgrounds are considered sensitive receptors. These are
areas where the occupants are more susceptible than the general public to adverse effects of
exposure to toxic chemicals, pesticides, other pollutants/contaminants, and noise. Journey of Faith
Christian Church in Manhattan Beach is located approximately 120 feet northeast of the subject
property and Mira Costa High School, also in Manhattan Beach, is located approximately 440 feet
northeast of the subject property. The assembly hall use operations do not involve toxic chemicals,
pesticides, other pollutants/contaminants. Noise from the assembly hall operations will be
contained within the fully enclosed building. Therefore, adverse impacts are not anticipated.
D. The combination of uses proposed;
The subject site is located adjacent to other Hope Chapel church owned and operated buildings
which include the approximately 30,000 sq. ft. Lazy Acres market building at 2510 PCH, the
approximately 60,895 sq. ft. Hope Chapel church building at 2420 PCH and the approximately
10,000 sq. ft. church administration office building at 2306 PCH. Close proximity to these
complementary uses facilitates shared parking facilities with the adjacent buildings. The types of
uses and hours of operation do not negatively impact one another and as such are considered
compatible.
E. Precautions taken by the owner or operator of the proposed establishment to assure the
compatibility of the use with surrounding uses;
The property owner, Hope Chapel, has applied for a shared Parking Plan amendment (17-3),
which appears as a companion item on tonight’s agenda. Hope Chapel has taken precautions to
ensure that the church hours and operations, as well as those of the other tenants on the subject
sites, do not negatively impact one another or the surrounding properties, and that there is
adequate parking for all users on the sites during peak periods.
F. The relationship of the proposed business-generated traffic volume and the size of streets serving
the area;
The applicant supplied a Traffic Impact Analysis Addendum, dated March 6, 2018, to assess
adjustments and clarification of assembly hall (ICAN and UCODE which are educational
programs geared towards children and young adults) uses within the commercial building located
at 950 Artesia Blvd. The addendum was peer reviewed by the City’s Traffic Engineer who
87
3
confirmed that the changes in use would not result in any significant impacts from traffic
generated by the project, either during weekdays or weekends (TJW Engineering, March 2018).
Access to the commercial building is via a shared driveway on the north side of Artesia Blvd. and
a driveway on the west side of Prospect Avenue. Artesia Blvd. is a major arterial street and
Prospect Avenue is a minor arterial street and are corridors with high traffic volumes capable of
accommodating the expected traffic demand.
G. The proposed exterior signs and decor, and the compatibility thereof with existing establishments
in the area;
The façade and structural retrofit alterations are not a part of this application. A sign permit is
required for any new signage at the subject site in conformance with HBMC Section 17.50, and
are subject to review and approval by City Planning staff.
H. The number of similar establishments or uses within close proximity to the proposed
establishment;
Journey of Faith Christian Church (an assembly use) on Artesia Boulevard in Manhattan Beach is
the nearest church use, approximately 120 feet northeast from the subject property. Due to its
location on the opposite side of Artesia Boulevard, a major arterial road, the fact that Journey of
Faith Christian Church has been in operation at this location for many years, and because parking
is available for the assembly hall uses on its adjoining properties through a shared parking plan
amendment, impacts associated with concentration of similar establishments are not anticipated.
I. Noise, odor, dust and/or vibration that may be generated by the proposed use;
The proposed assembly hall uses do not provide live entertainment and all uses will be contained
within the existing building. Therefore, it is not anticipated that other nearby commercial or
residential uses would be affected. Conditions of approval are included in the draft resolution that
require: noise emanating from the property shall be within the limitations prescribed by the City’s
Noise Ordinance and the building shall be equipped with air conditioning to maximize sound
proofing. A condition of approval is included in the proposed resolution requiring all product
pick-up and delivery and student/client pick-up and drop-off shall be limited to the east (Prospect
Avenue) parking lot only and shall comply with the Hermosa Beach Noise Ordinance.
The short duration of noise events generated during construction will temporarily result in
increased ambient noise levels, but will not significantly impact the ambient noise environment
over the long term or for a significant period of time. Compliance with the City’s Noise
Ordinance, will effectively ensure that the project does not exceed adopted standards and
successfully avoids significant noise impacts.
J. Impact of the proposed use to the city’s infrastructure, and/or services;
The site has historically operated as an office building with available utilities and services for the
proposed assembly hall uses. As such, the proposed uses will not place additional demand on the
City’s infrastructure or services.
K. Will the establishment contribute to a concentration of similar outlets in the area;
The proposed assembly uses, in combination with office and retail uses within the building, and
retail and church uses on adjoining sites, will complement one another with shared parking
provided for the combination of uses proposed and will not result in a negative concentration of
similar outlets in the area. No negative impacts are anticipated.

L. 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 additional considerations noted.
Section 5. Based on the foregoing, the Planning Commission hereby approves the proposed
Conditional Use Permit 18-4 subject to the following Conditions of Approval:
1. The assembly hall uses shall be governed by Parking Plan amendment 17-3 as provided
in P.C. Resolution 18-XX pertaining to the subject properties at 2306, 2420 and 2510
PCH and 950 Artesia Blvd.

REPORT 18-0320
Honorable Chairman and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission
Regular Meeting of May 15, 2018
TA 18-1-Zone Text Amendment 18-1 to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code,
Chapter 17, to Establish Local Standards for State Mandated
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in Residential Zones
Applicant:
City of Hermosa Beach
1315 Valley Drive
Hermosa Beach, CA 90245
Recommended Action:
Adopt the attached resolution recommending that the City Council approve Zone Text Amendment 18
-1 to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code, Chapter 17, to establish local standards for State
mandated accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in residential zones, and making a determination that the
project is statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Background:
In 1992,the City added provisions to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC)that effectively
prohibit the creation of second units in single-family zones (with the exception of second units no
larger than 640 square feet on lots greater than 8,000 square feet).Pursuant to the Government
Code in effect at that time,authorization for such a prohibition was conditioned on findings
acknowledging that such action may limit housing opportunities,as well as further findings that
specific adverse impacts on the public health,safety,and welfare would result from allowing second
units within the city.Because “second units”would negatively impact traffic,density,the school
system,infrastructure,sewer,loss of open space,increased impervious surfaces,and increase of
solid waste generation,the City established findings sufficient to prohibit “second units”under the
state law provisions at that time.
California is now facing a state-wide housing crisis,with rising housing costs,and a shortage of
affordable housing options.One of the State’s solutions to this crisis is to encourage accessory
dwelling units (ADUs)and junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs)as a method of increasing the
housing supply.To facilitate this approach,State laws related to ADUs went into effect January 2017
through adoption of AB 2299,SB 1069,and AB 2406 (JADUs)making significant changes to the
manner in which local municipalities are required to regulate such units and replacing prior laws

REPORT 18-0320
manner in which local municipalities are required to regulate such units and replacing prior laws
related to “second units”.These laws were further refined through the adoption of AB 494 and SB
229 which became effective January 2018.The goal of these new regulations is make local zoning
codes more permissive in order to make it easier for owners of single-family residences to add
ADUs.
The new State laws supersede the City’s existing prohibition of “second units.”Further,unless the
City adopts its own “accessory dwelling unit”ordinance that complies with State standards,any
applications for an ADU must be reviewed/approved by the City pursuant to the new allowances
under State laws.Since the new State ADU laws went into effect in January 2017,the City has
received three applications for accessory dwelling units.One of the three applications has been
approved thus far because it met the requirements of the State laws,and it was an application for a
JADU.
The new State laws define an ADU as a secondary dwelling unit with complete independent living
facilities for one or more persons and generally take three forms:
·Detached: the unit is separated from the primary structure
·Attached: the unit is attached to the primary structure
·Repurposed Existing Space:Space (e.g.master bedroom)within the primary
residence is converted into an independent living unit.
JADUs are defined as ADUs that are no more than 500 square feet and are located within an
existing single-family residence.
Included as attachments to this report is the full text of the State law for ADUs (State of California
Government Code Section 65852.2)and JADUs (State of California Government Code Section
65852.22). The provisions of these State laws are summarized in the tables below.

These State laws allow local governments to take a variety of actions beyond these statutes that
regulate ADUs. This can be accomplished through the adoption of a local ordinance that imposes
reasonable development standards specific to ADUs, provided they do not overly burden the overall
development of ADUs. For instance, the City can impose reasonable development standards that
regulate parking, height, lot coverage, lot size, and maximum unit size, but it cannot regulate to the
point where it would defeat the State law and discourage the creation of ADUs as additional housing

stock for the region.
Analysis:
Staff researched what action surrounding cities have taken thus far with regard to the new State law.
It should be noted that some cities,i.e.,Redondo Beach and Torrance,have allowed second units in
their single-family residential zones,and therefore the new State law does not have as much impact
as it does on cities that do not allow second units.Redondo Beach Planning staff advises that they
have no plans to adopt their own ADU ordinance,and therefore,will operate under the parameters of
the State law.Manhattan Beach Planning staff intends to create their own ADU ordinance in the near
future.The City of El Segundo recently adopted an ADU ordinance that’s tailored to address the
needs and unique characteristics of their community.
Currently,Hermosa Beach is almost 98%built out;it is the densest community in terms of housing
and population in the South Bay and is 9th in terms of population density in Los Angeles County.
These statistics have not significantly changed over the years.However,because the legislature has
determined that ADUs can provide for additional rental housing stock,and the ability for cities to
make findings to opt out of allowing ADUs has now been repealed,the City’s current ordinance
banning accessory dwelling units must be amended in order to conform to State law.
In considering a draft ADU ordinance for Hermosa Beach,it is important to be mindful of the strong
community desire that was expressed during the General Plan update process to maintain control of
density due to the small sizes of residential lots and high population density,and to desire to
preserve and maintain the character of predominantly single-family residential neighborhoods.
Though not required,local jurisdictions are encouraged to submit draft ordinances for review
comments to the State Department of Housing and Community Development.City staff received
HCD comments on the draft ordinance and worked with the City Attorney’s office to incorporate them
accordingly.
Rather than allowing ADUs and JADUs on all single-family residential lots,the proposal is to permit
ADUs and JADUs in both single-family and multiple-family residential zoned lots that are conforming
to the City’s minimum lot size requirement of 4,000 square feet and which contain an existing or
proposed single-family residence.This represents a substantial portion of Hermosa Beach land area,
as approximately 68%of the total land area is zoned residential.Approximately 51%of residential
uses are single-family uses,47%multiple-family uses and 2%mobile home uses.There are
approximately 3,682 residentially zoned lots,of which approximately 1,589 are at least 4,000 square
feet in size.Therefore,approximately 43%of the city’s residential lots would be potential candidates
for an ADU or JADU.
The proposal also limits the size of ADUs to a maximum of 640 square feet.Hermosa Beach
residential lots are relatively small in comparison to those of most cities in California.As previously
noted,the housing density in the city is already very high compared to most cities,and many lots
currently permit multi-family units.As such,providing a maximum ADU size of 640 square feet is

REPORT 18-0320
currently permit multi-family units.As such,providing a maximum ADU size of 640 square feet is
reasonable and compatible to the city’s smaller lot sizes and existing density,and is consistent with
the ADU being considered “accessory”to the main unit,providing more affordability,while also
minimizing impacts.
With regard to parking,State law does not allow parking requirements to be imposed for any JADU,
but allows parking requirements to be imposed for an ADU only if it is located more than one-half mile
from public transit.Hermosa Beach land area totals 1.4 square miles,and all properties are located
within one-half mile of public transit,i.e.,Pacific Coast Highway.As such,no parking requirements
can be imposed on an ADU in Hermosa Beach.
It should be noted that Hermosa Beach also has a large number of residential properties that are
nonconforming to the HBMC regulations regarding the building and/or the use.It is not intended that
adoption of the proposed ADU ordinance exempt the primary residence on the lot from complying
with HCMC Section 17.52 regulations for nonconforming buildings and uses.For example,if a
building is nonconforming to parking requirements,an ADU/JADU may be allowed,but will be limited
to 100 square feet if less than one parking space is provided for the primary residence,and will be
limited to 500 square feet if less than two parking spaces are provided for the primary residence.

General Plan Consistency:
PLAN Hermosa (the City’s combined General Plan and Local Coastal Program)was recently
adopted in August 2017.In developing policies for the PLAN,community feedback was strong
regarding the need to maintain control of density due to the small sizes of residential lots and high
population density. Land Use policies that reflect this need include:
·LU 2.2 Variety of types of neighborhoods.Encourage preservation of existing single density
neighborhoods within the city and ensure that neighborhood types are dispersed throughout the
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/3/2022Page 8 of 10

REPORT 18-0320
neighborhoods within the city and ensure that neighborhood types are dispersed throughout the
city.
·LU 2.4 Single density neighborhoods.Preserve and maintain the Hermosa Hills,Eastside,
Valley,North End,and Hermosa View Neighborhoods as predominantly single-family residential
neighborhoods.
The General Plan also contains policies which encourage balanced neighborhoods and a diversity of
building types, including:
·LU 2.6 Diversity of building types and styles.Encourage a diversity of building types and styles
in areas designed for multi-family housing ranging from duplex/triplex/fourplex to courtyard
housing to multi-family housing projects.
·LU 2.3 Balanced neighborhoods.Promote a diverse range of housing unit types and sizes,
within the allowed densities.
The City’s General Plan Housing Element,updated in 2012,is effective from 2013-2021 and
identifies strategies and programs that focus on:1)providing diverse housing sites and opportunities;
2)conserving and improving the existing affordable housing stock;3)removing governmental and
other constraints to housing development;and 4)promoting equal housing opportunities.The
Housing Element contains a specific policy to encourage removal of governmental and other
constraints:
·Policy 4.4 The City will continue to evaluate its Zoning Ordinance and General Plan and
remove governmental constraints related to development standards.These may include,but not
be limited to,parking requirements,allowing affordable housing on commercial sites,new
standards for mixed-use development,lot consolidation incentives,and senior housing
requirements.
Given the mandates of the new State law and the community’s desire to maintain control of density
due to small lot sizes and high population density,the proposed ordinance strives to create a
balanced approach to meet the State requirements and remove governmental restraints related to
development standards,while recognizing the unique attributes of the community.This approach
includes design standards that address both state requirements and community needs by
implementing regulations such as minimum lot sizes,maximum ADU/JADU size,and maximum
number of ADU/JADU per lot. As such, the proposed ordinance is consistent with the General Plan.
Environmental Analysis:
Under California Public Resources Code section 21080.17, the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) does not apply to the adoption of an ordinance by a city or county implementing the
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 5/3/2022Page 9 of 10

provisions of section 65852.2 of the Government Code, which is the State Accessory Dwelling Unit
law. Therefore, the proposed ordinance is statutorily exempt from CEQA in that the proposed
ordinance implements the State accessory dwelling unit law.
Summary:
Until and unless the City adopts its own ADU ordinance that complies with State standards, any
applications for an ADU must be reviewed/approved by the City pursuant to the new allowances
under recently adopted State laws. Given the mandates of the new State law and the community’s
desire to maintain control of density due to small lot sizes and high population density, the proposed
ordinance strives to create a balanced approach to meet the State requirements and remove
governmental restraints related to development standards, while recognizing the unique attributes of
the community through design standards that are intended to minimize negative impacts.

P.C. RESOLUTION NO. XXXX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH
RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL
APPROVE A ZONE TEXT AMENDMENT TO THE
HERMOSA BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE TO
REPLACE THE TERM “SECOND UNIT” WITH
“ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT”, ADDING
CHAPTER 17.21 TO THE HERMOSA BEACH
MUNICIPAL CODE TO PROVIDE FOR ACCESSORY
DWELLING UNITS IN RESIDENTIAL ZONES; AND
AMENDING THE HERMOSA BEACH MUNICIPAL
CODE TO CONFORM WITH STATE LAW.
The Planning Commission does hereby resolve and order as follows:
Section 1. Due to recent State legislation, staff has initiated this text
amendment to replace the term “second unit” with “accessory dwelling unit” and add
Chapter 17.21 to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code to provide for accessory dwelling
units in residential zones, in conformance with state law.
Section 2. The Zoning Ordinance text amendments are consistent with the
goals, policies, and objectives of the General Plan because accessory dwelling units do not
exceed the allowable density for the lot upon which they are located. Furthermore,
accessory dwelling units are a residential use that is consistent with the General Plan under
Government Code Section 65852.2.
Section 3. On May 15, 2018, the Planning Commission conducted a duly
noticed public hearing and accepted and considered all of the public testimony on the
issue.
Section 4. The Planning Commission does hereby find and declare as follows:
A. In light of California’s housing crisis, Assembly Bills (“AB”) 2299 and
2406, and Senate Bill (“SB”) 1069 collectively and significantly impact
local authority to regulate accessory dwelling units and were drafted to
apply a clear standard for the accessory dwelling unit permit review
process, regardless of whether a local government has an adopted ordinance
or not. Specifically, Government Code section 65852.150(b) states, “[i]t is
the intent of the Legislature that an accessory dwelling unit ordinance
adopted by a local agency has the effect of providing for the creation of
accessory dwelling units and that provisions in this ordinance relating to
matters including unit size, parking, fees, and other requirements, are not so
120
2
arbitrary, excessive, or burdensome so as to unreasonably restrict the ability
of homeowners to create accessory dwelling units in zones in which they
are authorized by local ordinance.”
B. Signed by the Governor on September 27, 2016, AB 2299 and SB 1069
went into effect on January 1, 2017. Pursuant to Government Code section
65852.2(a)(1), a local ordinance providing for the creation of accessory
dwelling units in single-family and multifamily zones must comply with the
provisions of Government Code section 65852.2, otherwise the ordinance is
null and void. The statute was also updated in 2017, effective January 1,
2018, with a few clarifying measures.
C. In 1992, the City added provisions to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code
to prohibit the creation of second units in single-family zones. Pursuant to
Government Code section 65852.150(c), the authorization for such a
prohibition was conditioned on findings acknowledging that such action
may limit housing opportunities, as well as further findings that specific
adverse impacts on the public health, safety, and welfare would result from
allowing second units within the city. Because “second units” would
negatively impact traffic, density, the school system, infrastructure, sewer,
loss of open space, increased impervious surfaces, and increase of solid
waste generation, the City established findings sufficient to prohibit
“second units” under State law. Hermosa Beach is almost 98% built out; it
is the densest community in terms of housing and population in the South
Bay and is ninth in terms of population density on Los Angeles County.
The City of Hermosa Beach contains approximately 68 percent residential
land area. The City’s residential uses are comprised of approximately 51
percent single family-uses, 47 percent multiple family uses and 2 percent
mobile home uses. There are approximately 3,682 residentially zoned lots
within the city, of which, approximately 1,589 (43 percent) are at least
4,000 square feet in lot size and have development potential to
accommodate junior accessory dwelling units and accessory dwelling units.
These statistics have not significantly changed over the years. However,
because the legislature has determined that accessory dwelling units can
provide for additional rental housing stock, and the ability for cities to make
findings to opt out of allowing accessory dwelling units has now been
repealed, the City’s current ordinance banning accessory dwelling units
must be amended in order to conform to State law.
Section 5. Under California Public Resources Code section 21080.17, the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to the adoption of an
ordinance by a city or county implementing the provisions of section 65852.2 of the
Government Code, which is the State Accessory Dwelling Unit law. Therefore, the
proposed ordinance is statutorily exempt from CEQA in that the proposed ordinance
implements the state accessory dwelling unit law.

Section 4. Chapter 17.21 is hereby added to Title 17 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal
Code to read as follows:
Chapter 17.21 ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS
Section 17.21.010 Purpose and Applicability
Section 17.21.020 Junior Accessory Dwelling Units
Section 17.21.030 Accessory Dwelling Units
Section 17.21.040 Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit and Accessory Dwelling
Unit Permit Application, Approval Process and Timelines
Section 17.21.010 Purpose and Applicability.
The purpose of this Chapter is to implement the requirements of Government Code
section 65852.2, to allow accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units in a
manner that accounts for the City’s unique land use characteristics (including high density
and small lot size) and which will minimize impacts on traffic, density, the school system,
infrastructure, sewer, increased impervious surfaces and increased solid waste generation,
given Hermosa’s almost entirely built out and incredibly dense characteristics. In
accordance with state law, accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units are
an accessory use to the primary use of a parcel as a one-family dwelling unit and do not
exceed the allowable density for the parcel.
Section 17.21.020 Junior Accessory Dwelling Units.
A. Junior accessory dwelling units shall comply with the following standards:
(1) The junior accessory dwelling unit is located on a lot zoned for
residential use, with the exception of the Mobile Home Park zone, and
shall contain no more than one (1) existing or proposed primary
residence;

Subject: Tonight's Commission Mtg - Item 9 ADUs
Hi Nicole,
I stopped by the Planning Office yesterday morning and was provided your contact to
direct questions to on the proposed ADU ordinance going before Planning Commission
tonight.
As a HB homeowner, I have been waiting for the city to establish its ADU ordinance per
recent State Code allowing ADUs in residential neighborhoods to help alleviate the
state’s housing crisis. Last year, I was directed (by the city planning office) to delay
requesting a permit until the city’s ordinance was enacted as it would comply with the
state. Come to find out the city’s draft ordinance now proposes ADUs be restricted to
only lots of at least 4000 sf in size. How is this consistent and in compliance with state
code? The code does not limit a property owner from providing an ADU based on lot
size. State code establishes maximum standards local cities shall use and no additional
standards are to be imposed to restrict or limit residential growth.
Section 4 of the proposed ordinance reports that 57% of the existing lots in Hermosa
Beach are less than 4000 SF in size. So it appears the draft ordinance has the intent to
limit housing growth in the city (through ADUs) to only 4000 sf lots, affecting a majority
of property, in addition to taking real property rights of homeowners granted to them by
state code.
Can you please explain???

REPORT 18-0310
Honorable Chairman and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission
Regular Meeting of May 15, 2018
C-25 -- Review of Fiscal Year 2018- 2019 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for conformance with
the City’s General Plan
Recommended Action:
Approve by minute order that the City of Hermosa Beach Fiscal Year 2017-2018 Capital
Improvement Program is in conformity with the goals and policies of the City’s General Plan (PLAN
Hermosa).
Background:
The California Government Code requires that the Planning Commission review proposed public
works projects for conformity with the City’s General Plan. Attached for review, is the list of Capital
Improvement Projects for upcoming fiscal year. The scope of the Commission’s review is limited to
conformity with the General Plan.
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) continues to be very ambitious, following Strategic Planning
goals from prior years. This year focuses on a continuation of ongoing projects with only two new
projects proposed. The new projects are the 14th Street beach restroom rehabilitation, and additional
ADA improvements. Continued funding for the following projects are included:
·PCH-Aviation Mobility Improvement project;
·PCH traffic, ADA, and pedestrian improvements;
·Bike friendly street improvements;
·8th Street sidewalk improvements;
·Strand bikeway and walkway improvement at 35th Street;
·Implementation of sewer rehabilitation program and storm drain improvements in accordance
with Master Plans;
·Storm water infiltration projects (including greenbelt diversion project);
·New City Yard,
·Community Center/EOC, City Hall and Clark building improvements;
·ADA improvements at various locations;
·New park restrooms and other park improvements;
·Improvements to lighting and aesthetics downtown and on Pier Plaza;
·Pier repairs;
·Bicycle and EV infrastructure (including Parking Lot D improvements).

Staff Report
REPORT 18-0310
Funding is also requested to initiate an update to the Parks Master Plan.
Analysis:
PLAN Hermosa most directly addresses capital projects in the Mobility, Infrastructure and Parks and
Open Space Elements. The ongoing CIP projects align with Mobility goals and policies related to
expanding multi-modal transportation options, as they involve pedestrian and bicycle improvements,
and increase ADA accessibility. Several projects align with goals and policies of the Infrastructure
Element as they involve maintenance and repair of infrastructure systems (streets, sewers, and
storm drains). There are several projects focused on adding amenities to or upgrading existing parks
and open space which aligns with goals and policies in the Parks and Open Space element. The
“placemaking” goals and policies of the Land Use and Design Element, are highlighted by the lighting
and aesthetics projects in the downtown and Pier Plaza, and beach and park restroom
improvements.
Further, the projects all generally follow the goals and policies of the Sustainability and Conservation
Element, where standard projects have incorporated sustainability principles. This in turn has led to
many CIP projects receiving grant funding, which is highlighted by the green alley storm water
infrastructure project, the net zero park restrooms, Lot D parking lot improvements, and the greenbelt
storm water diversion project.
Based on the above, staff recommends that the Commission find the 2018-2019 CIP in conformance
with the General Plan. The City Council schedule for 2018-19 budget adoption included a CIP
budget study session on April 25, a budget workshop on June 6, and final budget approval hearings
later in June.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT
PROGRAM
148
This page intentionally left blank
149
Capital Improvement Program
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is the City’s comprehensive plan to develop and maintain the
City’s capital facilities and infrastructure. Capital projects are usually of high cost, take a year or more to
complete, and result in the creation of a capital asset. Included in the budget document is the detailed
2018-19 Capital Improvement Program, along with the high level 3 Year Capital Improvement Plan.
2018-19 Capital Improvement Program
The 2018-19 Capital Improvement Program is divided into three main sections: Capital Improvement
Program Summary, Capital Improvement Program Funding Summary, and Capital Improvement Project
Requests with Department Expenditure Detail.
The Capital Improvement Program Summary is divided into four main project types: Street and Highway
Improvements, Sewer/Storm Drain Improvements, Park Improvements, and Public Building and Ground
Improvements. Funding is broken down into remaining prior year funding, FY 2018-19 funds, and total
project funds. The remaining prior year funding includes any unspent funds appropriated in prior
budget years intended for use in the current fiscal year.
The Capital Improvement Funding Summary is an overview of the capital improvement budget by fund.
Funding is broken out by prior year carryover and 2018-19 current year budget.
The Capital Improvement Project Requests and Department Expenditure Detail are grouped by type as
noted above and organized by project number. Noted on each project request are the lead department,
category, account number(s), project number and title, project description, justification, status, cost to
complete project, project total, remaining prior year funds, current year request, and total FY 2018-19
funding. Any anticipated annual impact on future operating budgets is indicated on the project requests.
For FY 2018-19, due to the project completion timeline, no impact to the operating budget is
anticipated, as any estimated increase in costs would be negligible.
3 Year Capital Improvement Plan
The 3 Year Capital Improvement Plan is a multi-year plan that forecasts needs for all anticipated capital
projects, even when funding is not yet available. The first year of the plan is the 2018-19 Capital
Improvement Program budget. Also included are future years for ongoing projects and projects for
which funding has not been secured or authorized. The “future years” of the plan are therefore subject
to change.
The 3 Year Capital Improvement Plan Summary is organized by the four main project types listed above.
The summary breaks out funding by budget year, with columns for any unfunded project amounts and
the project totals. Any projects not included in the 2018-19 Capital Improvement Program will have a
project request following the 3 Year Plan Summary. The project requests are organized alphabetically
within each project type.

PROJECT NO./TITLE: CIP 12-143 PCH MOBILITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
‘Previously named CIP12-143 PCH/Aviation Mobility Improvement Project’
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project will improve the Pacific Coast Highway
corridor mobility’s (vehicular movement) aspect for
efficiency. Improvements include elements of a
“Complete Street” which include coastal sensitive
drought-tolerant landscaped raised center medians to
increase driver safety; enhanced safety pedestrian
crosswalk features; new street furniture & bus shelters
where applicable incorporating transit kiosks; ADA
accessibility. These improvements will be coordinated
as part of the Caltrans CAPM $60M pavement
resurfacing project scheduled to start in 2022.
Additionally, efforts to coordinate undergrounding (UG)
of SCE overhead utility with Caltrans are in progress. If
successful, UG benefit provides for removal of the
power poles and provides for a wider sidewalk for
pedestrian accessibility and a greater buffer separation
between pedestrian and vehicles; without having to
widen the sidewalk and reduce vehicle mobility along
the corridor through Hermosa Beach. With the
exception of the pavement resurfacing and access
ramps improvements, all other
improvements/components are primarily funded through
South Bay Measure R Program funds and coordinated
with SBCCOG staff.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION (continued):
This project is to be programmed/budgeted as follows:
Funding: Work with South Bay COG/Metro on
capitalizing Measure R funds and seek out grant
opportunities.
Design: Work with Caltrans coordinating the design of
roadway elements into the resurfacing project; actively
pursue the UG efforts to maximize sidewalk width
without reducing lane capacity.
Construction Phase(s): Caltrans pavement
resurfacing project scheduled to start in early 2022.
Staff will work with SBCCOG staff for the other
elements to insure timeliness and feasibility of all items
into overall project scheme.
STATUS:
Staff is currently coordinating with Caltrans for UG
efforts and funding assistance. Staff is also working
with SBCCOG staff for concept/design/funding of the
landscaped raised center medians to increase safety
of left turn movements; identifying all pedestrian ramp
improvements/crossings.
MAINTENANCE:
New medians will require additional landscaping
services, utilities, and irrigation. Annual maintenance
costs estimated at $11,475.

PROJECT NO./TITLE: CIP 12-160 PCH Traffic Improvements
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The purpose of this project is to improve
operational mobility along State Route 1 (Pacific
Coast Highway) which also provides operational
relief to I-405 by improving operations in a
parallel route. The proposed project also
includes improvements including but not
restricted to truck turning radius, ADA curb
ramps, striping and pedestrian signal
improvements of the segment on PCH between
Anita Street and Artesia Boulevard. This
segment was identified for improvement as per
SCAG’s study (User-based Microanalysis of SR
1, PCH) which was done in July 2009.
The scope of work also included preliminary
engineering of PCH/Aviation Boulevard since
this intersection is a major intersection and is
part of the project study area.
The scope of work included in the approved
scope of CIP 12-160 PCH Traffic Improvements
are as follow:

PROJECT NO./TITLE: CIP 17-684 Emergency Operations Center (EOC) Renovations
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Construction Costs
• Renovation of existing restroom.
• Repair the holes in the walls to cover exposed
interior of the building.
• Paint the interior of the space.
• Install proper flooring within the space
• Remove the unused pipe located within the
center of the room.
• Move IT equipment cabinet to include the
installation of a power pole, cabinet and
the repositioning of cabling.
• Historical Building Certificate of
Appropriateness.
Equipment Costs
• IT equipment including a new switch, 2 UPC
batteries, and firewall.
• Security Improvements to include new key fob
locking system.
JUSTIFICATION:
• There was an existing restroom facility in the
space next to the EOC but it is inoperable. The
lighting must be repaired, a toilet and sink needs
to be installed and the tile needs to be replaced in
order to make the restroom functional. Without a
restroom facility, operational efficiency and
effectiveness decreases in the EOC, staff may
encounter members of the media and/or public
therefore delaying their return and delaying the
ability of the EOC to assist the field response.
• There are large holes in the walls exposing the
interior of the building, which need to be repaired
along with new paint.
• The electrical and flooring is in extremely poor
condition requiring repairs including the removal
of a pipe located within the middle of the room.
• The current IT cabinet needs to be relocated as it
is in the direct sunlight, which overheats the
equipment and has ruined critical EOC IT
equipment requiring replacement more often. The
project would include moving the cabinet and
current cabling into a space that is not impacted
by the sun, replace the current equipment to
ensure operational efficiency, and install
equipment that will protect the exposed cables.
The EOC is located within a building designated as a
historical building, which may require a Certificate of
Appropriateness to complete the repairs.
MAINTENANCE:
Additional janitorial services estimated at $878
annually.
