REPORT 18-0573
Honorable Chairman and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission
Regular Meeting of September 18, 2018
VAR 18-1 - Sign Variance 18-1 to allow: 1) more than one pole sign per site; 2) one pole sign to
exceed the maximum allowed 20 foot height; and 3) a request for a sign code interpretation to
determine that the sign proposed for the north building elevation is a marquee sign and not a roof
sign.
Applicant:Superior Electrical Advertising (Representing Lazy Acres Natural Market & Hope
Chapel)
C/O: Tim Pitts 1700 West Anaheim Street
Long Beach, CA 90813
Owner:International Church of the Foursquare Gospel (aka Hope Chapel)
2420 Pacific Coast Highway
Hermosa Beach, CA 90254
Recommended Action:
Adopt the attached resolution: (1) approving a Sign Variance to exceed the maximum number of pole
signs allowed on a site, (2) but denying the proposed 35 foot pole sign height for sign C and (3)
approving a sign code interpretation that the sign proposed for the north building elevation is a
marquee sign rather than a roof sign and (4) determining the project is categorically exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Summary:
Staff recommends approval of the Sign Variance, approving the proposed number of pole signs on
the subject site (two double-faced pole signs at the 20 foot allowable height) but does not support the
proposed height for the proposed 35-foot high pole sign along Artesia Boulevard. Staff believes that
special conditions and extraordinary circumstances apply to the property and hardships exist relative
to number of pole signs on one site. However, Staff does not believe that hardships exist relative to
the proposed pole sign height because a 20 foot high pole sign is visible from Artesia Boulevard at
the proposed location and because two of the required findings could not be made for the requested
Variance. Finally staff recommends that the proposed sign located on north building elevation be
determined as a marquee sign and not a roof sign.

pertains to signage for an existing facility
In the northern portion of the city, the Lazy Acres Natural Market building is located within a multi-
tenant shopping center at the southeast corner of Artesia Boulevard and Pacific Coast Highway
(PCH), arterial streets that function as two of the city’s major commercial corridors. Hope Chapel is
located immediately south at 2420 PCH. East of Hope Chapel, but not immediately adjacent to the
market, is a single-family residential neighborhood fronting on 24th Street. Immediately east of the
market is a 10-unit multi-family residential complex (The Victorian condominiums). Hope Chapel
owns parcels 2, 3, 8 and 10 located within the shopping center (see Location/Parcel Map
Attachment). The shopping center is shared by other commercial uses, including restaurants
(Rabano, Best Donuts, Fabio’s Pizza, and PCH Lock & Key) which occupy a separate building at
2516 PCH on a separate parcel with a different owner, at the southeast corner of PCH and Artesia
Boulevard. The building at the northeast corner of the site (950 Artesia Boulevard at the intersection
of Prospect Boulevard) is occupied by commercial uses (Shorewood Realty, LaRocca Real Estate,
and U-Code). The subject properties are located in the C-3 General Commercial zone and the
Gateway Commercial (GC) General Plan land use designation.
History
On April 18, 2017 the Planning Commission approved a Precise Development Plan (PDP) to allow a
food and beverage market (Lazy Acres Natural Market) within an existing 29,653 square foot building
at 2510 PCH (formerly Hope Chapel Youth Center); a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for outdoor
dining accessory to the proposed food and beverage market; and a Parking Plan (PARK) to allow
parking requirements to be met with a shared parking arrangement with the two adjacent buildings at
950 Artesia Boulevard (a multi-tenant building) and 2420 Pacific Coast Highway (Hope Chapel
Church) and the parking lot currently used by Hope Chapel at their administrative office building at
2306 PCH.
On May 15, 2018 the Planning Commission approved a 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 square foot addition in conjunction with a religious institution (Hope
Chapel) 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.

Staff Report
REPORT 18-0573
Lazy Acres Natural Market is currently under construction and anticipates to open by October of
2018. The City approved one temporary banner to be placed on one face of the pole sign located
along PCH, and there is currently no existing permanent signage on the building.
On August 27, 2018 a permanent sign application was approved to reface both of the existing pole
sign cans (along PCH and Artesia Boulevard) with Lazy Acres signage only, and those are
anticipated to be installed within the next few weeks in time for the market’s grand opening. Hope
Chapel has a total of four existing on-site wall signs on the church building at 2420 PCH, and two
legal nonconforming pole signs located at 2510 PCH. The existing wall signs are approximately 532
square feet in sign area for all 4 wall signs, and the existing pole signs are approximately 478.64
square feet total for both pole signs. Thus, the total existing signage for Hope Chapel is
approximately 1,010 square feet. The total existing signage square footage, height and number of
pole signs for the Hope Chapel building all exceed the signage limits prescribed by the Hermosa
Beach Municipal Code (HBMC), and as such, are considered existing nonconforming.
Applicant Proposal
Lazy Acres Natural Market proposes to install a total of 4 signs for the proposed business (two pole
signs, one wall sign, and one marquee sign). The proposed wall sign would be located on the west
building elevation facing PCH. The proposed marquee sign would be installed on the north building
elevation facing Artesia Boulevard, and two double-faced pole signs would be installed in the same
location as the existing legal nonconforming pole signs (one along PCH and one along Artesia
Boulevard). The proposed 20’ high pole sign would replace the existing 25.67’ high pole sign in the
same exact location as the existing sign be located along PCH. The proposed 35’ high pole sign
would replace the 50.25’ high pole sign in the same exact location as the existing sign located along
Artesia Boulevard. The proposed pole signs would be internally illuminated and have one double
sided can per pole. The proposal is to provide Lazy Acres Natural Market signage and Hope Chapel
signage on each pole sign.
The existing 50.25’ and 25.67’ legal nonconforming pole signs for Hope Chapel exceed the permitted
20 foot height limit for pole signs located within the C-3 zone as well as the maximum number of pole
signs per site (1). The applicant requests a Variance from the 20’ height limit for pole signs as well as
a Variance from the number of pole signs permitted on a site.
The applicant also requests a sign code interpretation determining that the proposed sign on the
north building elevation be considered a marquee sign rather than a roof sign.
Analysis:
Pursuant to HBMC Section 17.50.140.(D), properties located within the C-3 zone are allowed a total
of three square feet of sign area per each lineal foot of primary building frontage plus a half foot of
signage for each foot of secondary building frontage.
The primary frontage for the market is located along PCH measuring 150.25’ in length. The
secondary building frontage is located along Artesia Boulevard measuring 196.83’ in length. As such,
the total allowable signage for the market is 745.99 square feet. The total sign area proposed for
Lazy Acres is 627.25 square feet, and 118.74 square feet of sign area would remain available for

future signage. The building frontage for Hope Chapel is located along PCH measuring
approximately 140’ in length. The building does not have frontage along any other streets.
Accordingly, the total allowable signage for Hope Chapel is approximately 420 square feet.
The total existing signage for the Hope Chapel building is approximately 1,010 square feet, whereas
the Lazy Acres Natural Market does not have any existing permanent signage. The existing sign area
for the pole sign located along PCH is 156.8 square feet, and the existing sign area for the pole sign
located along Artesia is 322.14 square feet, for a total aggregate of 478.94 square feet of area for
both pole signs. The total sign area for both proposed pole signs for Hope Chapel’s signage only is
245 square feet (151.14 square feet along Artesia and 93.86 square feet along PCH). The proposal
would reduce the total sign area for Hope Chapel building from 1,010.64 to 933.50 square feet,
bringing the sign area closer, though not fully, into compliance with HBMC development standards for
total maximum signage area of 420 square feet.
Since the requested signage for Hope Chapel will still result in approximately 513.50 square feet of
excess allowable signage, a separate Sign Variance for Hope Chapel to the exceed the total
allowable signage is required. Based on the provided information, it appears it would not be possible
to make all three required findings to support a Sign Variance request for Hope Chapel to exceed the
permitted total allowable sign area. As such, the applicant will be required to revise the pole signs to
remove Hope Chapel signage from each pole sign can. Conditions of approval have been added to
the attached resolution to ensure that any adjustments to the proposed total sign area for the Lazy
Acres Natural Market are consistent with HBMC development standards.
The proposal is not consistent with HBMC Section 17.50.140(G), which indicates properties located
within the C-3 zoning designation are limited to one pole sign per site with a maximum 20 foot height
limit.
Variance:
The applicant seeks Sign Variances for styles of signs and height standards as outlined below:
1.Signs in the General Commercial zone are limited to the following sign types:
a.One pole sign shall be permitted per site (Section 17.50.140 (B) (2)).
2.Pole signs shall not be over twenty (20) feet high above finished grade (Section 17.50.140 (G).
Findings:
The Planning Commission, or the City Council on appeal, may grant a Variance to the specific
requirements of this chapter, provided a demonstrated hardship exists and the proposed sign will not
adversely affect public safety or the design and appearance of the surrounding neighborhood, and
the required conditions are found to exist pursuant to Section 17.50.190, addressed below:
1. Variance Request for number of poles per site
All three of the following findings must be made by the Planning Commission in order to grant the
requested Variance to exceed the maximum number of pole signs allowed per site:
Finding A: “A Variance authorized is not a grant of a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations
on other properties in the vicinity.”
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 4 of 8

Staff Report
REPORT 18-0573
Finding B: “Special conditions and extraordinary circumstances apply to the property and do not
apply to the other properties in the vicinity so that the strict application of this chapter works a
demonstrated hardship on the particular property.”
Finding C:“The Variance will not adversely affect public safety and the design and appearance of
the signing and structures of the surrounding area.”
While the applicants could propose one pole sign as permitted by right pursuant to the HBMC
development standards for signs in C-3 zoned sites, the applicants’ justification for the requested
Variance is that since the building is set back approximately 208 feet from the street, the market is
located on a busy intersection, and the property is completely blocked by the commercial
development at the northwest corner, it is imperative to have more than one pole sign per site (2) for
the safety of their customers.
Argument against granting the variance: The argument can be made that most commercial properties
throughout the community do not have the benefit of an intersection-adjacent location, and not many
enjoy the benefit of having exposure along the frontage of two major commercial arterials. Having
building frontage along two major arterial streets rather than one provides a benefit to the applicant in
that the frontage provides additional visibility. Due to the commonality of commercial sites that are not
intersection-adjacent, and the subject site’s benefit of the having visibility along the frontage of two
major arterials, the Variance for the number of pole sign per site would grant the applicant a special
privilege, and there are no special conditions or extraordinary circumstances about the property that
do not apply to the other properties in the vicinity so that the strict application of this the HBMC would
create a demonstrated hardship on the property. While allowing more than the maximum number of
pole signs would not adversely impact public safety, all three findings are required in order to approve
the requested Variance, and only one finding can be made.
Although one can argue that the request for more than one pole on the subject site is not justified,
staff has made the following findings in favor of the applicant’s request.
Finding A: A variance for the number of pole signs per site would not grant the applicant a special
privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity. The subject site is located
on a major arterial intersection, along the Pacific Coast Highway and Artesia Boulevard. The site is
currently accessed from three curb cuts along Pacific Coast Highway and four curb cuts along Artesia
Boulevard. The parking area for the Lazy Acres Natural Market and Hope Chapel can be accessed
from both PCH and Artesia Boulevard. The parcel to the northwest of the site (southeast corner
parcel at Pacific Coast Highway and Artesia) is under different ownership and not a part of the
parking plan. Thus, the applicant is unable to provide signage at the corner of the intersection, which
is typical for large shopping centers located on a street intersection. A similar approach was taken for
the property located at 1559 PCH (Plaza Hermosa). There, the subject property was granted a sign
variance because, among other things, the property fronts two street but does not include the corner
portion abutting the intersection where typically a sign could be located providing exposure to both
streets. Thus, the variance would not grant a special privilege inconsistent with other properties in
the vicinity.
Finding B: Special conditions and extraordinary circumstances apply to the property that do not apply
to the other properties in the vicinity so that the strict application of this chapter works a

REPORT 18-0573
demonstrated hardship on the particular property. The project site is located on a busy intersection in
the City, the building is set back approximately 208 feet from the street and the property is completely
blocked by commercial development to the northwest. For the safety of the customer, it is important
to have more than one pole sign so that customers can readily find the site easily. Moreover,
commercial properties located within the City typically have only one building frontage. Pursuant to
HBMC Section 17.50.140 (G), pole signs are permitted for sites with a minimum of 40 feet of street
frontage. The subject site has two street frontages over 40 feet in length (381.58’ along PCH and 552’
along Artesia Boulevard). Thus, the HBMC sign code, which prevents sites from having more than
one pole sign, most often applies to commercial properties with only one building frontage - here
there are two building frontages. Thus, large scale of the of the site, the unique nature of the site, and
the two building frontages all lead to the finding that special conditions and extraordinary
circumstances apply to the property and the HBMC development standards for number of pole signs
would create a hardship for the property.
Finding C: The subject site is located on a major arterial intersection, along the PCH and Artesia
Boulevard. The site is currently accessed from three curb cuts along Pacific Coast Highway and four
curb cuts along Artesia Boulevard. The parking area for the Lazy Acres Natural Market and Hope
Chapel can be accessed from both Pacific Coast Highway and Artesia Boulevard. An additional sign
alerting drivers and possible customers of the location of Lazy Acres Natural Market and Hope
Chapel would not adversely affect public safety.
2. Variance Request for maximum height for Artesia Boulevard pole sign
All three of the following findings must be made in order to grant the requested Variance to exceed
the allowable pole sign height (along Artesia):
Finding A: “A Variance authorized is not a grant of a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations
on other properties in the vicinity.”
Finding B: “Special conditions and extraordinary circumstances apply to the property and do not
apply to the other properties in the vicinity so that the strict application of this chapter works a
demonstrated hardship on the particular property.”
Finding C:“The Variance will not adversely affect public safety and the design and appearance of
the signing and structures of the surrounding area.”
Finding A: A variance for the number of pole signs per site would grant the applicant a special
privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity. Allowing the proposed
pole sign of 35 feet would grant the applicants a special privilege not allowed for other properties in
the area. No other properties have such a tall pole sign, especially a site with an extra pole sign
already on the property. The deviation from the maximum 20 foot pole sign height limit would be a
grant of a special privilege as the proposed pole sign would be located parallel to the sidewalk/public
right-of-way and would be clearly visible from Artesia Boulevard at 20 feet in height. In addition, the
proposed 35 foot pole sign along Artesia Boulevard is proposed to have a 5’-2” architectural roof
feature to match the market’s roof. The proposed roof feature adds 5’-2” of unnecessary bulk and
height to the 35 foot high pole sign. While the architectural roof feature may add to the aesthetic
appeal of the 35 foot high pole sign, it does not contribute to the City’s signage purposes.
Finding B: Special conditions and extraordinary circumstances do not apply to the property that do

not apply to the other properties in the vicinity so that the strict application of this chapter works a
demonstrated hardship on the particular property. The applicant claims that because the Lazy Acres
Natural Market building is set back approximately 208 feet from Artesia Boulevard and is located at a
major intersection, the proposed pole sign at 35 feet in height is needed to ensure safe vehicular
entry into the shopping center. However, City staff believes that applicant’s justification is not
warranted the primary function of signage is to give information about the location of the possible
designation. Thus, in order to promote public safety the proposed pole sign should be at the driver’s
eye level.
Finding C: The proposed 35 foot high pole sign along Artesia Boulevard would not adversely impact
public safety, as the existing legal nonconforming pole sign was permitted at 50 feet in height and
has not created negate impacts. However, all three findings are required in order to approve the
requested Variance. Therefore, granting of the requested Variance cannot be justified.
Sign Code Interpretation:
The applicant seeks a sign code interpretation to determine whether the proposed building sign
located on the north building elevation may be considered a marquee sign rather than a roof sign.
Roof signs are defined as signs erected upon, above or extending above a roofline of a building or
structure. In addition, architectural projections above the roof line which function as background for a
sign shall be considered a sign structure. Signs that are placed on such structures shall be
considered a roof sign. According to the HBMC Section 17.50.080 (B) roof signs are prohibited in the
City of Hermosa Beach with the following exceptions:
a. Signs located on pre-existing architectural projections extending above roof line that have
historically been used for sign purposes;
b. Signs located on projections above the roof line that are deemed by the Planning Commission to
be architectural projections that are part of the architecture of the building and not solely for purposes
of sign background.
Marquee signs are defined as signs painted on, attached to, or supported by a marquee with the
exposed face of the sign in a plane parallel to the building wall which supports the marquee. Although
the HBMC does not define a marquee, a marquee can be described as a rooflike projection over the
entrance to a theater, hotel, or other building.
The Lazy Acres Natural Market building has a flat roof. The proposed marquee sign will be place on
the sloping roof adjacent to the main building entrance fronting Artesia Boulevard. Staff believes that
the proposed marquee sign is not considered a roof sign because the sloping roof element for which
the proposed sign will be placed on is truly an architectural feature of the building intended strictly for
aesthetic purposes. Although the sloping roof element gives the illusion of a roof, it does not exceed
the parapet of the north building elevation. The proposed sign on the north building elevation does
not appear to be a roof sign because it does not extend beyond the roof parapet. In addition, it
appears the tube framing on which the sign will be placed on is considered a marquee because it can
be considered a rooflike projection. Thus, proposed building sign located on the north building
elevation should be considered a marquee sign rather than a roof sign.
Environmental Determination:

Staff Report
REPORT 18-0573
The proposed project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act as
defined in Section 15311(a), Class 11 Exemption, Accessory Structures because the proposal
pertains proposed signage for an existing structure. Moreover, none of the exceptions to the
Categorical Exemption apply. Nor will the project result in a significant cumulative impact of
successive projects of the same type in the same place over time, or have a significant effect on the
environment due to unusual circumstances, or damage a scenic highway or scenic resources within
a state scenic highway. The site is not located on a hazardous waste site and will not cause a
substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.
General Plan Consistency:
The subject site is located within the Gateway Commercial (CC) General Plan land use area, the
purpose of which is to offer a greater variety of employment, retail, and economic activity to the
community. The subject site is also located within the Pacific Coast Highway Corridor Character
which promotes signage made of high-quality materials and design, and consistent with City sign
codes.

P.C. RESOLUTION NO. 18-XX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING VARIANCE 18-01
IN PART TO ALLOW MORE THAN 1 POLE SIGN ON 1 SITE,
APPROVING A SIGN CODE INTERPRETATION TO DETERMINE
THAT THE PROPOSED SIGN TO BE PLACED ON THE NORTH
BUILDING ELEVATION IS A MARQUEE SIGN AND NOT A ROOF
SIGN, AND DENYING VARIANCE 18-01 IN PART TO ALLOW A POLE
TO EXCEED THE ALLOWED 20 FOOT HEIGHT LIMIT, ON A
SQUARE FOOT LOT IN THE C-3 (GENERAL COMMERCIAL)
ZONING DISTRICT AT 2510 PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY.
The Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve and order as follows:
SECTION 1. An application for a sign variance was filed by Superior Electrical Advertising
(Representing Lazy Acres) and International Church of the Foursquare Gospel (Hope Chapel) on June
26, 2018, seeking approval of a Variance 18-1 to allow more than one pole sign on a site and to allow a
pole sign to exceed the allowable 20 foot height limit, and a sign code interpretation to determine
whether a sign is a marquee sign and not a roof sign in the C-3 (General Commercial) zoning district at
2510 Pacific Coast Highway.
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing to consider
the application for sign variance (VAR 18-1) on September 18, 2018, at which time testimony and
evidence, both oral and written, was presented to be considered by the Planning Commission.
SECTION 3. The proposed project is Categorically Exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act as defined in Section 15311(a), Class 11 Exemption, Accessory Structures
because the proposal pertains proposed signage for an existing structure. Moreover, none of the
exceptions to the Categorical Exemption apply. Nor will the project result in a significant cumulative
impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place over time, or have a significant effect
on the environment due to unusual circumstances, or damage a scenic highway or scenic resources
within a state scenic highway. The site is not located on a hazardous waste site and will not cause a
substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.
SECTION 4. The applicants propose to install one wall sign on the Lazy Acre’s west building
elevation facing Pacific Coast Highway, one marquee sign on the Lazy Acre’s north building elevation
facing Artesia Boulevard and two internally illuminated double-faced caned signs with signage for
Lazy Acres and Hope Chapel (one 20 foot high pole sign along Pacific Coast Highway and one 35 foot
high pole sign along Artesia Boulevard). The subject property is zoned C-3 and is surrounded by C-3,
SPA-8, R-3 and R-1 zoned lots and uses
SECTION 5. Based on the testimony and evidence received, the Planning Commission makes
the following findings to APPROVE in part the application for Variance 18-1 for the proposed
number of pole signs (two pole signs) on the site pursuant to Section 17.50.190 of the Hermosa Beach
Municipal Code (HBMC):
24
Based on the foregoing, the Planning Commission makes the following findings pursuant to
HBMC Section 17.50.190:
Finding A: “A Variance authorized is not a grant of a special privilege inconsistent with the
limitations on other properties in the vicinity.”
Finding B: “Special conditions and extraordinary circumstances apply to the property and do not
apply to the other properties in the vicinity so that the strict application of this chapter works a
demonstrated hardship on the particular property.”
Finding C: “The Variance will not adversely affect public safety and the design and appearan ce of the
signing and structures of the surrounding area.”
Finding A: A variance for the number of pole signs per site would not grant the applicant a special
privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity. The subject site is located
on a major arterial intersection, along the Pacific Coast Highway and Artesia Boulevard. The site is
currently accessed from three curb cuts along Pacific Coast Highway and four curb cuts along Artesia
Boulevard. The parking area for the Lazy Acres Natural Market and Hope Chapel can be accessed
from both PCH and Artesia Boulevard. The parcel to the northwest of the site (southeast corner parcel
at Pacific Coast Highway and Artesia) is under different ownership and not a part of the parking plan.
Thus, the applicant is unable to provide signage at the corner of the intersection, which is typical for
large shopping centers located on a street intersection. A similar approach was taken for the property
located at 1559 PCH (Plaza Hermosa). There, the subject property was granted a sign variance
because, among other things, the property fronts two street but does not include the corner portion
abutting the intersection where typically a sign could be located providing exposure to both streets.
Thus, the variance would not grant a special privilege inconsistent with other properties in the vicinity
Finding B: Special conditions and extraordinary circumstances apply to the property that do not apply
to the other properties in the vicinity so that the strict application of this chapter works a demonstrated
hardship on the particular property. The project site is located on a busy intersection in the City, the
building is set back approximately 208 feet from the street and the property is completely blocked by
commercial development to the northwest. For the safety of the customer, it is important to have more
than one pole sign so that customers can readily find the site easily. Moreover, commercial properties
located within the City typically have only one building frontage. Pursuant to HBMC Section
17.50.140 (G), pole signs are permitted for sites with a minimum of 40 feet of street frontage. The
subject site has two street frontages over 40 feet in length (381.58’ along PCH and 552’ along Artesia
Boulevard). Thus, the HBMC sign code, which prevents sites from having more than one pole sign,
most often applies to commercial properties with only one building frontage – here there are two
building frontages. Thus, large scale of the of the site, the unique nature of the site, and the two
building frontages all lead to the finding that special conditions and extraordinary circumstances apply
to the property and the HBMC development standards for number of pole signs would create a
hardship for the property.
Finding C: The subject site is located on a major arterial intersection, along the PCH and Artesia
Boulevard. The site is currently accessed from three curb cuts along Pacific Coast Highway and four
curb cuts along Artesia Boulevard. The parking area for the Lazy Acres Natural Market and Hope
Chapel can be accessed from both Pacific Coast Highway and Artesia Boulevard. An additional sign
alerting drivers and possible customers of the location of Lazy Acres Natural Market and Hope Chapel
would not adversely affect public safety.
25
SECTION 6. Based on the testimony and evidence received, the Planning Commission makes
the following findings to DENY the application for Variance 18-1 for the proposed pole sign along
Artesia Boulevard to exceed the allowable 20 foot height limit pursuant to HBMC Section 17.50.190:
Finding A: “A variance authorized is not a grant of a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations
on other properties in the vicinity.”
Finding B: “Special conditions and extraordinary circumstances apply to the property and do not
apply to the other properties in the vicinity so that the strict application of this chapter works a
demonstrated hardship on the particular property.”
Finding C: “The variance will not adversely affect public safety and the design and appearance of the
signing and structures of the surrounding area.”
Finding A: A variance for the number of pole signs per site would grant the applicant a special
privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity. Allowing the proposed
pole sign of 35 feet would grant the applicants a special privilege not allowed for other properties in
the area. No other properties have such a tall pole sign, especially a site with an extra pole sign already
on the property. The deviation from the maximum 20 foot pole sign height limit would be a grant of a
special privilege as the proposed pole sign would be located parallel to the sidewalk/public right-of-
way and would be clearly visible from Artesia Boulevard at 20 feet in height. In addition, the proposed
35 foot pole sign along Artesia Boulevard is proposed to have a 5’-2” architectural roof feature to
match the market’s roof. The proposed roof feature adds 5’-2” of unnecessary bulk and height to the 35
foot high pole sign. While the architectural roof feature may add to the aesthetic appeal of the 35 foot
high pole sign, it does not contribute to the City’s signage purposes.
Finding B: Special conditions and extraordinary circumstances do not apply to the property that do not
apply to the other properties in the vicinity so that the strict application of this chapter works a
demonstrated hardship on the particular property. The applicant claims that because the Lazy Acres
Natural Market building is set back approximately 208 feet from Artesia Boulevard and is located at a
major intersection, the proposed pole sign at 35 feet in height is needed to ensure safe vehicular entry
into the shopping center. However, City staff believes that applicant’s justification is not warranted
the primary function of signage is to give information about the location of the possible designation.
Thus, in order to promote public safety the proposed pole sign should be at the driver’s eye level.
Finding C: The proposed 35 foot high pole sign along Artesia Boulevard would not adversely impact
public safety, as the existing legal nonconforming pole sign was permitted at 50 feet in height and has
not created negate impacts. However, all three findings are required in order to approve the requested
Variance. Therefore, granting of the requested Variance cannot be justified.
SECTION 7. Based on the testimony and evidence received, the Planning Commission makes
the following findings to determine that the proposed sign to be placed on the Lazy Acres north
building elevation is a marquee sign and not a roof sign:
The applicant seeks a sign code interpretation to determine whether the proposed building sign located
on the north building elevation may be considered a marquee sign rather than a roof sign. Roof signs
are defined as signs erected upon, above or extending above a roofline of a building or structure. In
26
addition, architectural projections above the roof line which function as background for a sign shall be
considered a sign structure. Signs that are placed on such structures shall be considered a roof sign.
According to the HBMC Section 17.50.080 (B) roof signs are prohibited in the City of Hermosa Beach
with the following exceptions:
a. Signs located on pre-existing architectural projections extending above roof line that have
historically been used for sign purposes;
b. Signs located on projections above the roof line that are deemed by the Planning Commission to be
architectural projections that are part of the architecture of the building and not solely for purposes of
sign background.
Marquee signs are defined as signs painted on, attached to, or supported by a marquee with the
exposed face of the sign in a plane parallel to the building wall which supports the marquee. Although
the HBMC does not define a marquee, a marquee can be described as a rooflike projection over the
entrance to a theater, hotel, or other building.
The Lazy Acres Natural Market building has a flat roof. The proposed marquee sign will be place on
the sloping roof adjacent to the main building entrance fronting Artesia Boulevard. Staff believes that
the proposed marquee sign is not considered a roof sign because the sloping roof element for which the
proposed sign will be placed on is truly an architectural feature of the building intended strictly for
aesthetic purposes. Although the sloping roof element gives the illusion of a roof, it does not exceed
the parapet of the north building elevation. The proposed sign on the north building elevation does not
appear to be a roof sign because it does not extend beyond the roof parapet. In addition, it appears the
tube framing on which the sign will be placed on is considered a marquee because it can be considered
a rooflike projection. Thus, proposed building sign located on the north building elevation should be
considered a marquee sign rather than a roof sign.
SECTION 8. Based on the foregoing, the Planning Commission hereby approves in part sign
Variance 18-1 as to the number of pole signs per site (two) and type and determines that the
proposed sign on the north building elevation is a marquee sign and not a roof sign , subject to the
following Conditions of Approval:
1. The signs shall comply with and not exceed the total allowable sign area for any business
on the site, height and other standards of the plan approved by the Planning Commission
on September 18, 2018 with the exception of number of pole signs per site.
2. Variance 18-1 is granted contingent on, and in reliance of, both existing nonconforming
pole signs both being removed and replaced by new pole signs.
3. A sign permit, and building and/or electrical permits as may be applicable, shall be
obtained prior to erecting the sign or lighting.
4. Any illumination shall be static, external and oriented so that only the sign face is
illuminated, automatically turned off between 10:00 p.m. and dawn, and low intensity
subject to approved by the Community Development Director per H.B.M.C. Section
17.50.070. A.5.
5. Based on the foregoing, the Planning Commission hereby DENIES the in part the request
for a variance to allow the proposed 35 foot pole sign along Artesia Boulevard to exceed
the allowable 20 foot height limit. Both pole signs must be meet the 20 foot height limit.
27
SECTION 9. Pursuant to the Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.6, any legal challenge to
the decision of the Planning Commission, after a formal appeal to the City Council, must be made
within 90 days after the final decision by the City Council.

REPORT 18-0572
Honorable Chairman and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission
Regular Meeting of September 18, 2018
TA 18-2 -- Consideration of a Text Amendment that would add a short term and low impact
entertainment option (Short Term Entertainment Permit or STEP) as an accessory use to businesses
located in the City’s commercial zones through a simple and cost effective permitting process,
including proposed definitions and standards for proposed Limited Live Entertainment Permit, and
determination that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act.)
Applicant: City of Hermosa Beach
Recommended Action:
Adopt the attached resolution recommending the City Council approve Text Amendment 18-2 to the
Hermosa Beach Municipal Code,Chapter 17,to establish definitions and standards for Limited Live
Entertainment Permit in commercial zones,and determine the project is exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act.
Background:
The initial request for a Short Term Entertainment Permit (STEP) was proposed by the local business
group THRIVE Hermosa. The stated goals were for a simple, inexpensive permit to allow low impact,
family-friendly entertainment permits to increase business during off peak hours in all commercial
districts. The proposed Zone Text Amendment allowing a Limited Live Entertainment Permit would off
a simpler, cost-effective alternative to a new or amended Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
The proposed Limited Live Entertainment Permit addresses current demand for this type of activity
which, since currently not permitted, has occasionally become an issue curtailed by Code
Enforcement.
Planning Commission Review:
At the June 25, 2018 Planning Commission meeting, staff presented a report that summarized a
proposal prepared by THRIVE Hermosa that would allow local commercial businesses to offer low
impact entertainment options such as games, acoustic music and open mic during “off-peak hours”
without requiring the business operators to have to go through a time-consuming and expensive
approval process such as the existing Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process. Representatives of
THRIVE Hermosa addressed the Commission and answered several questions by the Planning
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 1 of 8

Staff Report
REPORT 18-0572
Commission.
A brief analysis of the current code requirements for the offering of “Live Entertainment” as amended
and clarified in the Zoning Code in 2013 was provided. Additionally, staff suggested a possible
revision to the current definition and the addition of a new definition for “Entertainment, Limited Live”
that would incorporate into the City’s code the types of uses proposed.
Several ideas and issues were raised by the Planning Commission during the discussion, including
that “Entertainment, Limited Live” be clearly defined; address noise and other possible negative
impacts on surrounding properties; the application process to include descriptions of the proposed
types of activity, days and hours and other information; the permit should be inexpensive and
processed at staff level; permit should include conditions to address potential impacts of proposed
activities; and businesses should be able to advertise permitted entertainment activities.
At the conclusion of the meeting, the Planning Commission directed staff to present a conceptual
overview to allow a short term, low impact entertainment option for businesses through an easy, cost
effective permit process.
At the August 21, 2018 Planning Commission meeting, staff presented possible amendments to the
Zoning Code that would allow Limited Live Entertainment Permits for local businesses seeking to add
low impact entertainment
The Planning Commission conceptually agreed with a proposed new definition of “Entertainment,
Limited Live” as an accessory use to be a simple, low cost permit with standards and conditions
limiting number of performers, defined hours and noise minimizing criteria, through a one-year permit
approval and annual renewal process.
At the conclusion of the meeting, the Planning Commission directed staff to set a Public Hearing to
consider a proposed Zone Text Amendment for a new Limited Live Entertainment Permit for
consideration of approval and recommendation to the City Council.
Analysis:
A new permit known as a Limited Live Entertainment Permit is proposed through the Administrative
Permit process under Chapter 17.42 General Provisions, Conditions and Exceptional Use; similar to
a Temporary Minor Special Event approval. The new Limited Live Entertainment Permit would
necessitate Zoning Code text amendments under Chapter 17.04 Definitions, Chapter 17.26.030 Land
Use Regulations Matrix and Chapter 17.42 General Provisions, Conditions and Exceptional Uses.
The Limited Live Entertainment Permit is proposed in the C-1, C-2 and C-3 commercial zones; it
would not apply to non-commercial zones, including the M-1 Light Manufacturing zone.
Limited live entertainment is proposed as an accessory use to the main business use as defined in
Chapter 17.04 of the Zoning Code as the following:
"Accessory" means a building, part of a building or structure or use which is subordinate to, and the
City of Hermosa Beach Printed on 2/20/2024Page 2 of 8
powered by Legistar™75
Staff Report
REPORT 18-0572
use of which is incidental to that of the main building, structure or use on the same lot.
An application for a Limited Live Entertainment Permit will be required as an Administrative Permit
described in Chapter 17.55.030 of the Zoning Code, including the requirement for a floor plan and
other plans to demonstrate compliance with the approved standards.
It is anticipated that the staff time needed to process an application for a Limited Live Entertainment
Permit would be approximately the same as that of a Temporary Minor Special Event Permit. Based
on the amount of staff time anticipated to process the application, a fee of $513 would be needed in
order to cover the City’s processing costs. The City Council will need to adopt a resolution
establishing the fee for the Limited Live Entertainment Permit, and at that time the Council may opt to
approve a lower subsidized fee, as was done with the A-Frame sign permit fee.
Rather than a permit which must be renewed annually, the proposal for one-time issuance with
revocation ability is recommended as a more business friendly and simple process. Annual permit
renewal requirements are time-consuming and may result in expired permits continuing operation
requiring Code Enforcement activity. It should be noted that, according to Code described below, the
permit will expire if it is not exercised in any 12-month period or if the permitted business ceases to
exist. In such case a new permit application would be required. The revocation procedures proposed
are described in Chapter 17.55.070 of the Zoning Code relating to Administrative Permits as the
following:
Any administrative permit may be revoked by the Director or the decision-making body for any of the following causes:
A. That any term or condition has not been complied with;
B. That the property for administrative permit has been granted is used or maintained in violation of any statute, law,
regulation or condition of approval;
C. That the use for which the administrative permit was granted has not been exercised for at least twelve (12)
consecutive months, or has ceased to exist, or has been abandoned; or
D. That the use for which the administrative permit was granted has been so exercised as to be detrimental to the public
health or safety or so as to constitute a nuisance.
Appeals for permit denial or revocation are described in Chapter 17.55.050 of the Zoning Code
relating to Administrative Permits as the following:
A. Decisions of the Community Development Director may be appealed to the Planning Commission by filing an appeal
within fifteen (15) days of the Director’s decision, provided that upon affixing the signature of the applicant to an issued
permit, the permit shall become effective and the right to appeal shall be waived. Appeals shall be filed in writing with the
Community Development Department accompanied by a fee set by resolution of the City Council. Notice of hearing shall
be given to the applicant at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing, unless the applicant agrees to waive the requirement
so that the matter may be heard at an earlier time. The Commission’s review shall be limited to a determination of
whether the application complies with the requirements of the governing section. The filing of an appeal within such time
shall stay the effective date of the decision until the Commission has acted on the appeal. The Commission’s decision
shall be final and conclusive, unless the governing section specifically provides for a direct or subsequent appeal to the

Council. The filing of an appeal within ten (10) days shall stay the effective date of the decision until the Council has
acted on the appeal as hereinafter set forth in this title. Upon receipt of a written appeal, the Planning Commission shall
transmit to the Council the Planning Commission’s complete record of the case. Notice of hearing shall be given to the
applicant at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing, unless the applicant agrees to waive the requirement so that the
matter may be heard at an earlier time. The Council shall hear the matter and render a determination as soon as
reasonably practicable, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after an appeal has been filed unless requested by the
applicant. The Council’s review shall be limited to a determination of whether the application complies with the
requirements of the governing section. The Council shall announce its findings within forty (40) calendar days of the
hearing, unless good cause is found for an extension, and the decision shall be mailed to the applicant. The Council’s
decision shall be final and conclusive.
Prize limitations are proposed to be as established under Chapter 5.12.100 of the Business Licenses
and Regulations of the City’s Municipal Code related to Bingo, as follows:
The total value of prizes awarded during the conduct of any bingo games shall not exceed two hundred fifty dollars
($250.00) in cash or kind, or both, for any separate game which is held, and the total value of all prizes in cash or kind or
both for any one day shall not exceed one thousand two hundred fifty dollars ($1,250.00).
STANDARDS AND LIMITATIONS
Based on feedback from the Planning Commission and recommendations from the business
community, the following standards and limitations are proposed for this new use in the commercial
zones through a Limited Live Entertainment Permit. Requests for entertainment beyond those
permitted under new definition of “Entertainment Live, Limited” may be considered under the
category of “Entertainment Live” and would continue to be allowed by Conditional Use Permit only.
Proposed operational standards are as follows:
·Hours: During normal business hours but no earlier than 8:00 A.M or later than 9:00 P.M. daily.

General Plan Consistency:
PLAN Hermosa (the City’s combined General Plan and Local Coastal Program) was adopted in
August 2017. The Text Amendment is consistent with the PLAN Hermosa vision to support our
vibrant local economy and the Land Use policies:
·LU 1.4 Diverse Commercial Areas. Promote the development of diversified and unique
commercial districts with locally owned businesses and job- or revenue-generating uses.
·LU 1.7 Compatibility of Uses. Ensure the placement of new uses does not create or
exacerbate nuisances between different types of land uses.
·LU 2.9 Neighborhood-serving retail. Support the retention of existing neighborhood-serving
retail and services in key locations throughout the city.
·LU 3.3 Diverse retail and office centers. Provide incentives to transform existing single-use
commercial properties that are accessible into retail destinations by adding a diversity of uses,
providing new pedestrian connections to adjacent residential areas, reducing the visual
prominence of parking lots, making the centers more pedestrian-friendly and enhancing the
definition and character of street frontage and associated streetscapes.
Environmental Analysis:
The project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to California
Public Resources Code Section 21080(b)(1), because CEQA does not apply to ministerial projects
proposed to be carried out or approved by public agencies. The project is statutorily exempt from
CEQA in that it allows for approval of limited live entertainment within approved businesses only.
Additionally, the zone text changes are Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061 of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15061 states that
CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the
environment. No possibility exists that the proposed zone text amendments will have a significant
effect on the environment because the zone text amendments will create a standard for limited live
entertainment permits.

RESOLUTION P.C. 18-XX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
HERMOSA BEACH RECOMMENDING CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL OF
TEXT AMENDMENTS TO MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE 17 REGARDING
DEFINITIONS AND STANDARDS FOR LIMITED LIVE
ENTERTAINMENT, AND DETERMINING THAT THE PROJECT IS
EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
The Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve as follows:
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on
September 18, 2018 to consider text amendments regarding definitions and standards for
Limited Live Entertainment. The current Municipal Code does not contain a definition or
standards for Limited Live Entertainment but does provide development standards for Live
Entertainment. These text amendments clarify the provisions applicable to
entertainment uses.
SECTION 2. The project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 21080(b)(1), because
CEQA does not apply to ministerial projects proposed to be carried out or approved by
public agencies. The project is statutorily exempt from CEQA in that it allows for
approval of limited live entertainment within approved businesses only. Additionally, the
zone text changes are Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061 of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15061 states
that CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect
on the environment. No possibility exists that the proposed zone text amendments will
have a significant effect on the environment because the zone text amendments will
create standards for limited live entertainment permits.
SECTION 3. The Planning Commission finds that the proposed amendments to
the Municipal Code to allow Limited Live Entertainment are consistent with the City’s
General Plan vision to support the vibrant local economy and Land Use Policy 1.4 for
Diverse Commercial Areas. The ordinance also furthers the general purpose of the
zoning ordinance to address and review standards and criteria to assure compatibility as
accessory uses within existing businesses. The amendments will not impede the City’s
ability to meet its General Plan goals, and the amendments are necessary to carry out the
purposes of the Zoning Ordinance, including the orderly planned use of land resources.

Honorable Chairman and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission
Regular Meeting of September 18, 2018
SIGN REVIEW - S4 #35 Determination on whether a proposed 1,980± square foot display proposed
on the south wall of the building at 2775 Pacific Coast Highway is a mural, and
the proposed display is not a project under the California Environmental Quality
Act.
Applicant:John Faulkner
Dunn-Edwards Paints
4855 E. 52nd Place
Los Angeles, CA 90058
Property Owner:Joseph and Gail Lowenstein
705 Walden Drive
Beverly Hills, CA 90210
Recommended Action:
Adopt the attached resolution and determine that the proposed display covering 1,980 ± square feet
of surface area on south side of an existing building is consistent with the Hermosa Beach Municipal
Code definition of ‘Mural’ at 2775 Pacific Coast Highway, and the proposed display is not a project
under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Background:
The subject property is located at 2775 Pacific Coast Highway, the main north/south arterial and
commercial corridor through the city. The applicant proposes a 1,980 ± square feet of display on the
south side of the existing building at 2775 Pacific Coast Highway.
The proposed location for the display covers an approximate 66-foot wide by 30-foot high portion of
the south elevation of the building. The proposed display depicts a volleyball player at the beach, Pier
Plaza, the Hermosa Beach Pier with a statue of surf hero and legendary lifeguard Tim Kelly beside
the image, and marine life at the bottom of the display. This display is to be painted directly onto the
south wall of the existing building by artist Clinton Bopp, a New Zealand native who has painted
murals and streets scenes in Los Angeles, is known to paint on any surface, and whose themes
depict social observations reflecting the times.

REPORT 18-0570
Analysis:
‘Mural’ as defined in Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Section (HBMC) 17.50.030 means a “pictorial
representation not specifically identifying goods or services offered on the premises.” Pursuant to
HBMC Section 17.50.140(B), the Planning Commission may waive specific provisions of the sign
ordinance relating to total sign area, coverage, height, type and style for a display deemed to be a
mural.
Dunn Edwards Paints is a business that sells architectural, industrial, and high performance paints.
General Plan Consistency:
The Hermosa Beach General Plan (PLAN Hermosa) future vision for the Pacific Coast Highway
Corridor Character Area in which the subject property is located is a corridor that encourages new
gateway monuments and signage to be added to promote Hermosa Beach’s identity. In addition, the
public realm design for this Character Area encourages that the prominence of entryways to
Hermosa Beach should be increased through the provision of artwork, monuments, and signage
along Pacific Coast Highway. Furthermore, as indicated in the Public Art and Design section of PLAN
Hermosa’s Land Use Element, the artistic culture in Hermosa Beach involves “community groups,
social events, and the larger community that participates in and values the beauty of public art and
creative artistic expression.”
Environmental Analysis:
The proposed display is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(a), because the display to be painted directly onto the
south wall of the existing building, and will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect
physical change in the environment.
Conclusion:
Staff believes the display is a mural because it does not directly advertise products or goods offered
on the premises, but instead depicts the city’s artistic beach culture which includes public arts to
enhance the public realm in the Pacific Coast Highway Corridor.
Staff recommends the Commission adopt the attached resolution and determine that the proposed
display is a mural and that it be allowed to exceed standards for total sign area pursuant to HBMC
Section 17.50.130B, and the proposed display is not a project under the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA).

P.C. Resolution 18-XX
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, DETERMINING THE 1,980±
SQUARE FOOT DISPLAY PROPOSED FOR THE SOUTH WALL OF
THE EXISTING BUILDING AT 2775 PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY IS A
MURAL AND THE PROPOSED DISPLAY IS NOT A PROJECT UNDER
THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT.
The Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve and order
as follows:
Section 1. An application was filed on August 15, 2018 by the applicant, seeking
determination of whether the proposed display covering 1,980 ± square feet of surface
area on south side of a building is consistent with the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code
definition of ‘Mural’ for Dunn Edwards Paints at 2775 Pacific Coast Highway.
Section 2. Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Section 17.50.030 defines a mural
as “a pictorial representation not specifically identifying goods or services offered by the
business on the premises.”
Section 3. Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Section 17.50.130(B) provides that
murals approved by the Planning Commission may be permitted, and in its review the
Planning Commission may waive specific provisions of the City’s sign regulations
related to total sign area, coverage, height, type and style.
Section 4. The Planning Commission at its public meeting of September 18,
2018 considered testimony and evidence, both written and oral.
Section 5. The proposed display is not a project under the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(a),
because the mural display is to be painted directly on the south wall of the existing
building, and will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical
change in the environment.
Section 6. Based on the evidence received at the public meeting, the Planning
Commission makes the following findings:
1. The display meets the definition of a mural as set forth in Hermosa Beach Municipal
Code Section 17.50.030, because:
a. The business on the premises sells architectural, industrial, and high performance
paints, and the proposed display, a pictorial representation of beach culture and
marine life, does not specifically identify goods or services offered by the business
on the premises.
2. Pursuant to Zoning Ordinance Section 17.50.130(B), i t is appropriate to waive the
specific provisions of the sign code pertaining to sign area, cover, height, type and
91
2
style for the subject 1,980± square foot mural displays because the display meets
the definition of a mural.
Section 6. The proposed display, which depicts a volleyball player at the beach.
Pier Plaza, the Hermosa Beach Pier with a statue of surf hero and legendary lifeguard
Tim Kelly beside the image, and marine life, is consistent with the Hermosa Beach
General Plan (PLAN Hermosa) because the future vision for the Pacific Coast Highway
Corridor Character Area in which the subject property is located is a corridor that
encourages new gateway monuments and signage to be added to promote Hermosa
Beach’s identity. The public realm design for this Character Area encourages that the
prominence of entryways to Hermosa Beach should be increased through the provision
of artwork, monuments, and signage along Pacific Coast Highway. The proposed
display celebrates activities closely associated with the city’s artistic culture that
involves community groups, social events, and the larger community that participates in
and values the beauty of public art and creative artistic expression.
Section 7. Pursuant to the Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.6, any legal
challenge to the decision of the Planning Commission, after a formal appeal to the City
Council, must be made within 90 days after the final decision by the City Council.
