The Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach does hereby resolve as follows:
SECTION 1. On December, 19, 2013, Hermosa Fitness, LLC/Jed Sanford applied for a Text
Amendment to the Municipal Code to allow a fitness use at 725 Cypress Avenue in the M-1 (Light
Manufacturing) zone, providing classes with not more than 40 persons, and supplying 28 parking
spaces.
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on February 18, 2014
to consider amending the Municipal Code to allow the proposed use in the M-1 zone (TEXT 14-1).
SECTION 3. Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, an Initial
Study and Negative Declaration were prepared and noticed for a 30 day period, no comments were
received, and it was determined that no significant impacts on the environment would result from the
project. The Negative Declaration prepared for this project reflects the City's independent judgment
and analysis. The Planning Commission finds that with the addition of limitations on hours of
operation there is no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant impact on the
environment. The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council of the City of Hermosa
Beach adopt the Initial Study and Negative Declaration as adequate and complete and approve the
Final Negative Declaration.
