Set a hearing on July 11, 1989 at 8:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as possible, to adopt the attached, proposed Resolution No. 89 - setting forth City policy for the repair and maintenance of sidewalks, curbs and gutters. Background At their February 28, 1989 meeting, City Council discussed staff's report, dated February 7, 1989, assessing present sidewalk, driveway, curb and gutter damage. That report analyzed the following elements as a first step toward adopting a City policy for such repairs: Criteria for damage City-wide inventory by address of existing damage including cost Repair options Who shall pay City Council referred this matter back to staff for further study with particular emphasis on who should pay and why. A copy of this report is available for review in the office of the City Clerk. Analysis The term "sidewalk" in this report shall include curbs and gutters as defined by Section 5600 in the Street and Highway Code. Regarding financial responsibility, the State has determined that the private property owner is financially responsible for repair and maintenance of sidewalks as defined above. As listed below, this is one of three options utilized by cities. 1. City pays in full 2. Owner pays in full 3. City/Owner share (permanent or temporary) The question of who shall pay is analyzed as follows: rt 1 1. CITY PAYS IN FULL A. Cost (1) Present (2) Future B.

Properties are grouped as shown below and the total cost including a 25% contingency for each group is as follows: Group Cost Private Property City -owned H.B. School -owned Cable TV Damage Water Utility Damage Total: $269,759 $ 3,995 $ 180 $ 42,144 * $ 411 * $316,489 City to recover these costs. $316,489 - $42,144 - $411 = $273,934 (2) Future: Annual costs will be lower since this is the first time in years that many of the locations have ever been inventoried. Trees are a major source of damage; the size and type of root system involved can effect how long the repairs will last. Staff has scheduled street tree maintenance responsibility and will have an assessment for City Council in the near future. 1B) Financial Resources: (1) Present: The City has the to draw upon: FUNDING General Fund (designated for CIP Projects) State Gas Tax following potential funding sources ESIMATED BALANCE 6/30/89 $ 384,091 $ 15,186 (2) Future: City funding for repairs could come from the same sources. However, the City funding is further drained when including future year capital improvement projects. 1C) Advantages: If the City chooses this option, there would be the following advantages: The entire repair process could be completed more quickly. Staff would have direct control over the process and timeliness of repairs. Less administrative time expended by staff than with other options. 1D) Disadvantages: Staff sees the following disadvantages of this option: (4) The total estimated cost to the public is high - over $300,000. Even excluding Cable TV and water utility -related repairs, the public's cost is estimated over $270,000. Tax dollars spent for this purpose are not available for other projects of benefit and safety to the general public. Other cities that do pay have reported that in some fiscal years, because of more urgent priorities, there was not enough money remaining in the budget to repair all inventoried damage. The City's exposure to potential liability could be increased. If not enough money is made available, the City could be held liable for repairs not performed in a timely manner. 2. OWNER PAYS IN FULL 2A) Costs: Property owners are concerned only with their repair cost which could vary from under $100 to more than $3,000. The data in Table 1 shows the total cost of all damage abutting private property and the high, low and average cost per location: 3 Table 1 ESTIMATED REPAIR COST: $ 215,807 EST. 25% CONTINGENCY: $ 53,952 TOTAL ESTIMATED COST: $ 269,759 HIGHEST ESTIMATED COST: $ 3,375 (per location) LOWEST ESTIMATED COST: $ 25 (per location) AVERAGE ESTIMATED COST: $ 233 (per location) The amount and percentages of locations within several cost ranges is shown below in Table 2. COST RANGE TABLE 2 ESTIMATED NO. PERCENTAGES OF LOCATIONS (ROUNDED OFF) $ 3375 - 3000 2 .2% $ 2999 - 1500 1 .1% $ 1499 - 1000 11 1.0% $ 999 - 500 67 5.8% $ 499 - 250 171 14.8% $ 249 - 100 387 33.5% Under $100 515 44.6% TOTAL: 1,154 100.0% 2B) Financial Resources: Income and real property value are the primary financial resources of property owners. The following data is approximate since the last complete census was nearly 10 years ago (1980). (1) Income: The information in Table 3 for 1980 was obtained from the Hermosa Beach library. Current estimates are from an article on Hermosa Beach in the Real Estate Section of the Los Angeles Times published on April 23, 1989 (on file in the City Clerk's office) . TABLE 3 HERMOSA BEACH 1980 CENSUS 1988 ESTIMATE HOUSEHOLD INCOME (percentage) (percentage) Less than $15,000 29.9% 10.7% $ 15,000 - $24,999 27.0% * $ 25,000 - $34,999 19.6% * $ 35,000 - $49,999 15.0% * $ 50,000 - $74,999 5.9% 25.0% $ 75,000 + 2.6% 19.6% *These figures were unavailable from the L.A. Times as of this date. - 4 - In Table 4, the ranges in the top end have been combined. The estimated percentage of those in the high end ($50,000 to $75,000+) has increased by nearly 5 times from 1980 to the present (8.5% to 44.6%). The percentage in the low end has declined over 2.5 times from 29.9% in 1980 to 10.7% in 1988. TABLE 4 HERMOSA BEACH 1980 CENSUS 1988 ESTIMATE HOUSEHOLD INCOME (percentage) (percentage) 50,000 - 75,000+ 8.5% 44.6% 0 - $14,999 29.9% 10.7% The L.A. Times article reported that the median Hermosa Beach household income in 1988 was estimated at $45,905; the Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce estimates the average family income in 1986 was $50,826. (2) Real Property Values: In the 1980 Census, the median Hermosa Beach house was valued at $148,200. The Business Section of the March 9, 1989 Easy Reader reported on South Bay real estate in general and Hermosa Beach specifically (on file in the City Clerk's office). According to figures obtained from the South Bay Board of Realtors, "Hermosa Beach home prices increased an average of 45%...last year...(while) Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach and Torrance averaged only 26%". Further, they conclude "that in the absence of a depression", no one expects a drop in prices in the foreseeable future. The South Bay Board of Realtors currently does not have information available for the first quarter in 1989. However, a summary of multiple listing sales in Hermosa Beach from January, 1989 to the present was made available by a local broker. In 1989, no property, except for condominium conversions, sold for less than $200,000. The selling price of 47 out of 53 single family residences in 1989 has exceeded $280,000. 2C) Advantages: (1) The cost to individual owners is generally low; the average cost per location is estimated to be $233 and 78% of current repairs are estimated to cost under $250 per location. (2) Owners as well as other residents would benefit from additional public projects made possible by the availability of tax dollars (3) Paying for repairs would encourage many owners to become more knowledgeable and responsible for the maintenance of sidewalks. 2D) Disadvantages: (1) Financial hardship c°buld result for some owners. (2) Initially, most time required for administration of the three 5 options. (3) Repairs will take longer because of the required notification process. 3. CITY/OWNER SHARE 3A) Permanent Basis: As noted in the February 7, 1989 report, this option was used by no city in the South Bay survey and by less than 8% of the 154 cities surveyed by the League of California Cities. It would not be cost effective. The administrative costs incurred by the City for partial owner payment could be as high as those to obtain full payment (option #2). 3B) Temporary Basis: On this basis, cost/sharing has been used by a few cities as a means to gradually prepare owners for full financial responsibility by transferring maintenance in incremental steps. 3C) Advantage: Sharing the burden could make some owners feel better. 3D) Disadvantage: The administrative costs incurred by the City for partial owner payment would be the same as those to obtain full payment. 4. SUMMARY The research does not indicate financial hardship to the majority of Hermosa Beach property owners if they were to pay for current sidewalk repairs. On the cost side, 93% of all current repairs are estimated to cost less than $500 and the average estimated cost per location is $233. Since 1980, income is estimated at $50,826 (median family) and $45,905 (median household). To these figures, must be added the considerable value of even the lowest priced Hermosa Beach property. In those instances where financial hardship would result, any one or some combination of the following remedies could be implemented. 1. Payment Waiver - Exempt by age, health, income, cost or some combination 2. Delayed Payment - Divide the total cost into 12 monthly payments 3. Lien Agreement - Utilize real property value by collecting payment only when property is sold. Finally staff believes the public recognizes that cities must prioritize spending because of limited tax dollars. In this case, the cost to the individual owner is generally low, but the total cost to the public for such repairs would be approximately $270,000. This is tax dollars, that if spent on sidewalks, will not be available to other public needs such as sewers, street repairs, etc. that will the benefit the City as a whole. 5. RECOMMENDATION Because of the research, staff concludes the following: .1. Property owners should be financially responsible for current and future maintenance and repairs of damaged sidewalks adjacent to their property, excluding damage caused by utilities and cable T.V. The utilities and cable T.V. will be billed. This conclusion follows State law which assigns the financial responsibility for maintenance and repair of sidewalks to the property owners. Alternatives: Alternatives presented by staff and available to the City are: 1. Determine that the City shall pay for all repairs currently inventoried, excluding damage caused by utilities and cable T.V., as a one-time occurrence but that City policy shall assign financial responsibility to the property owner pursuant to State law; 2. Determine that the City is 100% financially responsible for the cost of all current and future repairs; 3. Determine that the City and property owner shall share the cost of repairs, either on a temporary or permanent basis.

Nort•craft City Manager Credit: Research by Terry Bindman, Public Works Department sda2 pwadmin :tb CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH MEMORANDUM DATE: May 3, 1989 TO: Mayor and Councilmembers FROM: City Manager Kevin B. Northcraft m,/-€; RE: City Manager Comments on Agenda Item No. 9, Driveway, Curb and Gutter Damage Assessment The staff report properly covers the options available to the Council. Since it is a well prepared summary of those options, it is appropriate that the Council have an opportunity to review and gain insight from the information provided, especially since we are dealing with an important, long term policy decision for the community. While the Public Works Department has weighed the issues and made a reasonable recommendation, I have also reviewed this informa- tion and tend to favor a different option than that proposed by the Public Works Department. I think the Council should serious- ly consider accepting the sidewalk and curb and gutter repairs necessary in our community as a City responsibility for now and in the future, for the following reasons: (1) City practices - The League of California Cities survey re- ported in the February 28, 1989 memo to Council reflects that 73% of cities in California assume responsibility for sidewalk re- pair, and 85% assume responsibility for curbs and gutters. Our City gets a good proportion of the property tax and has some com- mercial revenue sources. There does not seem to be any substan- tial reason why our City government should not be in a position to offer the same level of services a majority of cities in Cal- ifornia provide their citizens. (2) Uniformity - If the City assumes responsibility, the main- tenance and repairs would be consistent and uniform throughout the City. The sidewalks and curbs would not be subject to the variations of attention and quality that would be likely with several thousand property owners assuming responsibility. (3) Cost - The City could contract City-wide for these repairs cost effectively and with little administrative cost. The ad- ministrative costs to charge each homeowner their proportionate share of repairs in front of their home are considerable. Indi- vidual estimates, noticing, hearings, potential of liens, protest reviews, waiver procedures, and smaller contracts all result in the possibility of tens to hundreds of thousands more in total cost for the program if it is to be funded by individual property assessments. Sidewalk, (4) Measuring benefit - With our nice weather, walking in our community is a common means of travel, resulting in well -repaired sidewalks being a community benefit as well as a benefit to the property owner in front of whom that particular sidewalk exists. It would seem difficult to explain to a property owner that he or she has to pay $200 to $1000 to repair a sidewalk that happens to need repair, especially when the adjacent property owners pay nothing by a quirk of construction or other unrelated circumstances. (5) Current taxation - As the Council is well aware, our citizenry is already being taxed a 6% Utility Users Tax currently to pay for sewers, beach patrol, and bootleg enforcement, as well as a 4% tax for purchase of the Greenbelt (which will sunset when the payment is made). With this existing commitment for addi- tional taxation to improve our community, it seems hard to ratio- nalize "going back to the well" for this comparatively small in- frastructure need. As an alternative, I would suggest that we take approximately 1% of the $30,000,000 that will be needed for sewer repair over the next 20 years and use it for sidewalk, curb and gutter repair. This will not jeopardize the sewer program, but will show immediate improvements in the quality of public facilities in our community. The only exception to this recommendation is that, where obvious damage has occurred as a result of other parties, the City should not assume the financial liability to repair that damage. If the Council wishes to pursue the Public Works option to assess repair costs to property owners, the scheduling of a public hear- ing certainly is appropriate. If there is no interest in pursu- ing that option, I think a rather controversial issue can be avoided by Council action to accept City responsibility as part of this year's budget approval/ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 RESOLUTION NO. 89- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA TO ESTABLISH GUIDELINES REGARDING SIDEWALK, CURB AND GUTTER REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE RESPONSIBILITY. WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach held a public hearing on July 11, 1989 to receive written and oral testimony on this matter and made the following Findings: WHEREAS, the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code does not currently establish responsibility for repair and maintenance of sidewalks abutting private property; and WHEREAS, Sidewalks need to be maintained for public safety and the City has inventoried 100% of the sidewalks and curbs for damage. WHEREAS, The Public Works Department has used a one inch displacement as a guideline for when foreseeable risk may exist; WHEREAS, Street and Highway Code: Section 5600 "sidewalk" includes a park or parking strip maintained in the area between the property line and the street line and also includes curbing, bulkheads, retaining walls or other works for the protection of any sidewalk or of any such park or parking strip; and WHEREAS, Street and Highways Code: Chapter 22, Subsection 5610. Duty of property owners: Liability for conditions created by grantees of city permits, etc.: states, "the owners of lots or portions of lots fronting on any portion of a public street or place when that street or place is improved or if when the area between the property line of the adjacent property and the street line is maintained as a park or parking strip will maintain any sidewalk in such condition that the sidewalk will not endanger 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 persons or property and maintain it in a condition which will not interfere with the public convenience in the use of those works or areas save and except as to those conditions created or maintained in, upon, along, or in connection with such sidewalk by any person other than the owner, under and by virtue of any permit or right granted to him by law or by the City authorities in charge thereof, and such persons will be under a like duty in relations thereto.

PRESIDENT of the City Council and MAYOR of the City of Hermosa Beach, California ATTEST: CITY CLERK APPROVED AS 25 26 2 28 E Y ATTORNEY ares April 17, 1989 Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting the Hermosa Beach City Council of April 25, 1989 PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING CONSIDERATION OF CONTINUATION OF ALTERNATIVE SCHEDULING FOR CITY HALL OPERATIONS RECOMMENDED ACTION: It is recommended that the City Council approve the continuation of the current hours of operation for City Hall, 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday. BACKGROUND: On October 27, 1987, the City Council authorized a change in the hours of operation for City Hall from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Mon- day through Friday, to the current hours indicated above. During the period of the alternative schedule, the City Council received reports indicating the impact of the alternative schedule on sick leave and overtime utilization, as well as the results of citizen and employee surveys. Each of these factors indicated positive results of the alternative schedule. At the City Council meeting on Janauray 24, 1989, the Council received staff's recommendation to authorize the continuation of the 4/10 schedule. The Council continued the alternative schedule for an additional -90 days and directed staff to set the matter for a public hearing. ANALYSIS: A concern raised at the Council meeting of January 24th was that the number of hours that City Hall was open and available to the public had been reduced as a result of the 4/10 schedule. The - original negotiations with the impacted employee organizations took this potentiality into consideration and concessions were made. The number of holiday hours available under both the 5/8 and the 4/10 schedule was maintained at 90 hours. This was ac- complished by eliminating selected holidays for employees on the 4/10 schedule. A comparison of scheduled working hours between the two schedules indicates the following: 4/10 schedule - 199 work days X 10 hrs = 1990 work hours. 5/8 schedule - 248.75 work days X 8 hrs = 1990 work hours. Additionally, prior to the implementation of the 4/10 schedule, City Hall was closed from 12:00 - 1:00 for employee lunches. Leaving City Hall open during these hours has provided an addi- tional 199 hours that citizens can utilize city offices during the year. This has produced a 10% increase in the actual number of hours City Hall offices are available. Staff also noted the Council's concern with servicing the public when City Hall is closed because of a holiday falling on a Mon- day. To address this concern, arrangements will be made to have the directory line answered on the Fridays preceding a Monday holiday in order to direct calls of an emergency nature and to take messages for departmental action the next business day. It should also be noted that the continuation of the 4/10 schedule will have a positive impact on the City's ability to comply with the South Coast Air Quality Management District's Commuter Program (Regulation XV). This program mandates that employers of 100 to 199 people implement a plan to reduce average vehicle ridership (AVR) commencing January 1, 1990. The institu- tion of compressed work weeks and/or flexible work hours is one of the recommended options to employers to accomplish this reduction. While the above stresses the advantages, indentified disad- vantages to the schedule should also be noted. In the January 24, 1989 report to the City Council, the City Manager noted the disadvantage of "scheduling difficulties of dealing in a business world operating on a different work schedule". This potentially could become less of a problem if more employers select alterna- tive schedules as a result of the AQMD Regulation XV. The City Manager also noted that "The 2070 reduction in trips aids in re- ducing traffic congestion, pollution emmissions, and parking problems. It is an important, governmental example of what can be done to reduce these significant urban problems". Also, while there is an advantage to the citizen who is afforded the opportunity to conduct business at City Hall during the extended hours, there will be those who are inconvenienced by the fact that City Hall is closed on Friday. The recommendation to authorize continuation of the current schedule on a continuing basis is in recognition of not only the employee support of this schedule, but also allows the City to utilize this schedule in recruitment and retention efforts. Respectfully submitted, Concur: Robert A. Blackwood Kevin B. Northcraft City Manager Personnel Director City Manager Comment: Because of the number of public hearing matters on the 4-25-89 Council agenda, the Mayor has approved opening the public hearing on this matter, hearing any requested testimony, and then con- tinuing the item for further testimony and decision at a later date. #+t*44-6.- ,j1.25/8?

Utilizing these indicators I projected at mid -year that interest revenue would be $500,000.00 . This was up from $400,000.00 projected at the start of fiscal year 1988-89. I must now report that my fiscal year estimates were in error. We have been able to take advantage of a strong financial market place and idle funds in excess of original predictions. I now estimate the fiscal year 1988-89 interest revenue to be $700,000.00 or $200,000.00 over mid -year projections. ary .rutsc City Treasurer cc: City Clerk City Manager le Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council May 1, 1989 Meeting of May 9, 1989 INTRODUCTION OF NEW EMPLOYEES AND PRESENTATION OF CERTIFICATES OF APPOINTMENT TO NEW POLICE OFFICERS The following new employees are presented to the City Council for introduction: Elrick Kelley, General Services Officer Elrick began as a General Services Officer on March 27, 1989.

Background: As part of the 1988/89 budget, the City Council approved the appropriation of $13,000 for a new animal control truck, cab and chassis. The city published a public notice inviting bids in the Easy Reader, which appeared on 4/13 and 4/20. In addition, notices were mailed to ten vendors (see attached list). Analysis: Only one bid was received, from Sopp Chevrolet. This bid meets our specifications and basically falls within the budgeted appropriation, however with tax the tatal cost will be approximately $13,395. The department budget is under -expended overall, we should be able to transfer funds from another account to fund the deficit. J n Noon General Services Director Concur: rArf evin :.

Authorize staff to advertise for a call for bids for the operation of the concession stand at the end of the Hermosa Beach Fishing Pier and issue addenda as necessary. Background: The first lease with the present Lessee was for a term of one year starting November 1, 1983, with the City holding the option to grant one year extensions. This lease was for $1225 a month. In March 1984 the Lessee requested that the rent be reduced to $1,000 per month for the months of March, April, May and June to enable him to establish his business. The request was granted by City Council. The present pier concession lease agreement commenced on November 1, 1984 for a term of sixty (60) months and expires on October 31, 1989. When this lease was signed the average monthly rent was reduced to $800 per month with a payment schedule as follows: June through November December through May - $1,200 per month due on the 1st of the month. = $7,200 - $400 per month due on the 1st of the month. = $2,400 Present Annual Rent $9,600 Item No. 2 of this lease (dated October 9, 1984) states ..."Upon request from the Lessee the City may elect to extend the term of this lease at its discretion". A copy of this lease is available for review in the City Clerk's office. Analysis: The present Lessee has been in possession of the concession area on the fishing pier for the past six (6) years. Considering the lease is expiring this year, it is appropriate at this time to solicit for proposals and in so doing extend the opportunity for others to bid. The Lessee has been advised, that pending Council approval, the City will be advertising for a call for bids and one will be sent to him. 1 lg Proposed is a call for bids to lease the concession area for a term of three (3) years. The attached proposal outlines the City's requirements of the Lessee.

CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, a Municipal Lessee(s) Corporation, Lessor ATTEST: By: MAYOR CITY CLERK PPROVED AS T ATTORNEY May 1, 1989 Honorable Mayor and Members City Council Meeting of the Hermosa Beach City Council of May 9, 1989 RECOMMENDATION TO RECEIVE AND FILE REPORT OF ENFORCEMENT OF BAN ON TRICK SKATEBOARDING AND BICYCLING, AND TO APPROPRIATE AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $1,900 FROM PROSPECTIVE EXPENDITURES RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that City Council: 1. Appropriate an amount, not to exceed $1,900, from Prospective Expenditures to pay for the necessary signs and signals needed for proper warning and enforcement. 2. Receive and file this report. BACKGROUND: There have been numerous complaints from the public regarding the danger and the problem caused by individuals performing trick riding on their skateboards and bicycles in the area known as the "Pierhead". This activity has been allowed for some time, but is clearly in violation of various subsections of Section 5-24.5 of the H.B.M.C. relating to trick riding and walk zones. ANALYSIS: Patrol personnel have been directed to begin an enforcement program aimed at reducing the number of violations involving wheeled vehicles on the sidewalks of the commercial zones and on the Strand. As such, Department Management feels that all applicable laws must be enforced in the Pierhead area as well. Enforcement is scheduled to begin on May 10, 1989. To this end, the department is working with the staff of Public Works to ensure that proper signs and signals are installed in those areas, prior to con- centrated enforcement, so that everyone will be properly notified. Additionally, notices will be distributed and local news media will be contacted to solicit their cooperation on providing notice. 1 1i Plans call for a flashing light to be installed at the Pierhead. This light will be activated along with the lights at the North and South ends of the walk zone on the Strand. The cost of this light is estimated to be $1,058. The cost of the various signs needed for proper notification is estimated to be $716. It is recommended that Council appropriate an amount, not to exceed $1,900, from Prospective Expenditures to the Traffic Safety budget of Public Works to cover the costs of the signs and signals.

BACKGROUND At the February 14, 1989, Council meeting, the City Council did approve this purchase but the funds to be used were the remaining funds in the Old Prospect School Grant. (See attachnent A.) Just recently the City has been notified those monies in that grant can be used only at that specific site, that is the playground at 6th and Prospect. Therefore the fence will have to be paid for from another source. ANALYSIS As indicated in the agenda item of February 14, 1989, the Commission is recommending this purchase due to the very poor condition of the existing fence. The new fence is more durable, easier to handle and can be stored in a much smaller space. Additionally, staff was able to see a demonstration of this new fence at the State Park & Recreation Conference just recently. The most impressive feature of the fence is its ability to collapse upon impact when someone runs into it. It is much more flexible than the existing one.

North a t Viki Copeland City Manager Finance Administrator 1 1 February 1, 1989 Honorable Mayor and Members Attachment A (1 of 5) City Council Meeting of of the City Council February 14, 1989, APPROVAL OF STATE GRANT FUND PROJECTS RECOMMENDATION It is recommended by the Parks, Recreation and Community Resources Advisory Commission that the City Council approve the purchase of a portable fence to be used on the Clark field for Little League and adult Softball Leagues; father that the fence be purchased with those funds remaining in the final outstanding grant the City has with the State that was not earmarked at the last Council meeting (approx. $7,958). BACKGROUND At the last City Council meeting of Jan. 24, 1989 tne City Council approved the expenditure of the balances in the various outstanding grants the City has with the State. The Council did not act on the final grant because at that time the Commission had recommended the money be expended for the demolition of the old Prospect School. At the last Council meeting tne City Council rejected that recommendation therefore resulting in the need to approve this money for another purpose. A copy of the Jan. 24th. agenda item is attached. ANALYSIS The Commission has recommended this purcnase of the portable fence due to the very poor condition of the existing portable fence. The new fence suggested is more durable and easier to maneuver and can be stored in a much smaller space than the present fence. Should the City Council approve this project, the City must then file an amendment with the State for this grant whicn will change the scope of the project to include this purchase. It is staff's nope the State will approve this project and allow the amendment. That won't be known until the State reviews all the paperwork. Once the State approves tnese amendments staff will return to the City Council and request an appropriation for these purchases because the City must expend its own funds initially and then be reimbursed by tne State. The total appropriation will be approximately $30,000. Concur: 4 41 "Kevin B.

That agenda item is attached for your reference. ANALYSIS Tne Commission at tneir January 4, 1989 Special Meeting decided on the above recommendation. The Commission at that same meeting also decided to recommend to the Council the demolition of the old Prospect School. The funds to be used for that demolition ($7,958) is an amount that also remains in one of the grants the City is in the process of closing out. Since the City Council rejected tne recommendation of the Commission tnere remains the $7,958 to appropriate. The Commission meets the day after this Council meeting to determine that and. will return to the City Council in February with that recommendation. Once the City Council approves tnese projects the City must file an amendment with the state for each of these grants to change the scope of each project. All of these remaining funds and all paperwork must be concluded and into tne State no later than June 30, 1989. For the past several years the City has spent very little for playground equipment and this funding provides an opportunity to fill a need without using the General Fund.

Copeland g City Manager Finance Administrator December 28, 1988 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Attachment A (3 of 5) City Council Meeting of January 10, 1989 FINAL REPORT ON STATE GRANTS RECONCILIATION RECOMMENDATION It is recommended the City Council receive and file this report. BACKGROUND At the Council meeting of May 24, 1988, tne City Council approved an appropriation of $7,000 for a consultant to reconcile the outstanding recreation grants that were still pending with the state. Tne attached report from the consultant is the final wrap-up report regarding that work. ANALYSIS In closing out the grants the consultant was able to determine the City expended its own funds to carry out some of tnese projects and will now be reimbursed for those expenditures. The City will be receiving approximately $42,000 from the state as reimbursement funds. Additionally, tne City has some money remaining in the various grants and tnat amounts to approximately $30,000. Tne $30,000 needs to be expended and all paper work submitted to the State no later than June 30, 1989. Elsewhere on the agenda this evening, there is a recommendation before you•.to demolish tne old Prospect Avenue Scnool at Fort Lots o' Fun Park on Prospect Avenue. The funds to be used for tnat demolition. ($7,958) are a part of the $30,000 figure mentioned above. By the City Council hiring a consultant at a cost of $7,000 to close out these recreation grants, the City was able to recoup approximately $42,000 from the State and has been informed it has another $30,000 left to expend for park and recreation purposes. It appears tne City has received a very good return on that $7,000 expenditure. Concur: Kevin B.

Background: At your regularly scheduled meeting of January 24, 1989, under Citizen Comments - Non-Agendized Items, MuntiVision's Program Director, Doug Nielsen requested a parking permit for downtown while video taping for local public access channel. The matter was referred to the City Manager. Subsequently, City Manager Northcraft assigned our staff to look into the possibility of issuing such a pass. We were unable to find any exemption for press personnel either in our Municipal Code or in the California Vehicle Code. We did find however, that Section 5008 of the C.V.C. provides for the issuance of a special license plate that could be issued to "any regularly employed or engaged as a bona fide newspaper, newsreel, or television photographer or cameraman". The special license plates display the letters "PP" enclosed by a shield. Upon further investigation, we were advised by Evelyn Roddy, Supervisor of the Public Inquiry Unit - DMV, Sacramento, that these plates were for identification only and did not exempt the vehicle owner from any parking or traffic restrictions. She further stated that this would be a matter of local rule. In addition, we sought an opinion from City Attorney Lough. In a confidential memorandum, dated April 17, 1989, Attorney Lough indicated he had reservations regarding the issuance of special parking passes under these circumstances since Section 22507 of the CVC only addresses granting preferential parking privleges to residents and merchants in a designated area. Analysis: Section 19-81 of the H.B.M.C. exempts any vehicle of a city department or public utility or cable television company franchised by the City of Hermosa Beach, while necessarily in use for construction or repair work as well as the United States Post Office while delivering mail, from parking restrictions. - 1 - lk If the City Council so chooses, they could amend this section of the code to include any vehicle which bears the special press plate, pending any legal problem or ramification.

CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH PLANNING DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: Honorable Mayor and members of the Hermosa Beach City Council FROM: Michael Schubach, Pl.ann - Dictor SUBJECT: "Grandfather" amendment of Ordinance 88-970 to allow the construction of a Planning Commission approved condominium project at 725 9th Street DATE: May 2, 1989 Recommendation Adopt the attached ordinance revising Ordinance No. 88-970, which amended the zoning map for areas 10 and 11, so that it includes a standard "grandfather" clause in order to allow the Planning Commission approved condominium project at 725 9th Street to be constructed pursuant to the approved plans. Background The Planning Commission, at their November 15, 1988 meeting, approved a 2 -story 2 -unit condominium project at 725 9th Street. At that time the property was zoned R-3 and the plans were approved with a building height of about 33 feet. However, the applicant waited until April 3, 1989 to submit plans for building plan check, which was after the effective date of the• ordinance changing the subject property from R-3 to R-2. Consequently, even though the proposed project meets R-2 density standards it is over height. Projects of this type have been allowed through "grandfather" clauses in other cases, and staff would have placed a clause in the subject ordinance if they had been aware that this project was going to be submitted after the effective date of the ordinance.

Introduce Ordinance No. 89- , of the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach, amending the Municipal Code Section 19-52 to redefine through streets. 2. Adopt Resolution No. 89- , of the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach establishing certain streets and portions of streets throughout the City as Through Streets. 3. Adopt Resolution No. 89- , of the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach establishing certain portions of streets for Angle Parking Zones. 4. Adopt Resolution No. 89- , of the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach, establishing residential handicapped parking zones. Background: As part of the Department's on-going review it was determined that an update of Resolution N.S. 2435 and Ordinance No. N.S. 238 is necessary. Ordinance No. N.S. 238 and Resolution N.S. 2435 defines and establishes traffic control throughout the City. City Council has authority to designate the following. Traffic Control 1. Stop Intersections 2. One-way Streets 3. Fifteen Minute Parking Zones -Streets 4. Loading Zones 5. White Zones 6. Through Streets 7. Handicap Parking, Residential 8. Authorize Angle Parking Zone 9.

Traffic Signal Locations In Progress Not Complete Not Complete Not Complete Not Complete Not Complete The other sections of Resolution N.S. 2435 and Ordinance No. N.S. 238 need additional review and as work is completed staff will present the results. Analysis: The analysis is divided into the following sections: 1. Through Streets - Angle Parking - Handicapped Parking Zones 2. Engineering Review 3. Sign Maintenance 4. Fiscal Impact 5. Summary Through Streets - Angle Parking - Handicapped Parking Zones NOTE: No NEW through streets, angle parking or handicap parking zones are teeing proposed Resolution N.S. 2435 was first approved by the City Council on July 3, 1962. This resolution is governed by Ordinance N.S. 238 which was adopted by City Council on June 6, 1962. A search of the records and files in the City revealed that the list of through streets within Resolution N.S. 2435, has never been updated. There exists no complete resolution listing all existing through streets, angle parking locations or handicap parking zones. A complete listing is necessary for the efficient operation of both office and field crews, reduced potential liability and proper upkeep of city records. 2. Engineering Review A field inventory was performed and there are three existing through streets and five streets or portions of that are angle parking zones. There are three existing residential handicapped parking spaces. A: THROUGH STREETS The City code definition of a through street needs to be updated. A through street is defined as every highway or portion thereof on which vehicular traffic is given preferential right of way, and at the entrances to which vehicular traffic from intersecting highways is required by law to yield right of way to vehicles on such through highway in obedience to either a stop sign or a yield sign, when such signs are erected. No new through streets are proposed at this time. B: ANGLE PARKING Angle parking is allowed on any of the streets or portions of streets established by resolution of the Council as angle parking zones when markings are in place indicating angle parking. C: HANDICAPPED PARKING (RESIDENTIAL) A resolution is necessary to establish curbside parking stalls for the exclusive use of disabled persons, pursuant to section 22511.7 of the California Vehicle Code. The current list has been updated. 3. Sign Maintenance No additional signage is required at this time. 4. Fiscal Impact No additional appropriation is necessary. 5. Summary - All streets were inventoried - No new through streets, angle parking zones or handicap zones are being proposed - Through streets, angle parking zones and handicap zones were evaluated for proper signage and no additional signage is required at this time Alternatives: Other alternatives available to City Council and considered by Staff: 1. Do nothing. 2. Modify the through streets, angle parking and handicapped parking zones list. 3. Return to staff for further evaluation.

Mmes A Pact to End Development Gridlock ----- By MARK RYAVFC In the last few years, the development landscape in Los Angeles has changed dramatically. Today, almost without ex- ception. how we use our land and what we build triggers inter public reaction. Far too often the question la not how to build in harmony with the community but whether any building will be allowed at all. For years the city building -approval process has been like swimming upstream; today, under our uniquely Ralkanized sys- tem, we have hit fierce rapids. While many environmentalists have seen reason to cheer slower growth, this "concretization" of our land use and decision-making pro- cesses has negative consequences. In too many settings, it denies us the tools to cope with the city's many ills: traffic congestion, scarce affordable hous- ing, visual blight and lack of open space. We are also impeded from rejuvenating the basic physical elements that comprise a city --its living quarters, commercial areas, its streets and sewers. • This "concretization" of the public deci- sion-making process can be explained by the emergence of a new plurality in Los Angeles politics. The traditional decision- makers—the mayor, his appointees and the City Council—have lees power now. The press of population, running up against limited public facilities In already congest- ed ngneighborhoods, has galvanized commu- nity wth sta defeats of former Los Angeles City Councilwomen Peggy Stevenson and Pat Russell—based on anti -growth senti- ment—caused many of their council col- leagues to defer significantly to pressure groups opposing anything in their neigh- borhood, from new homeless shelters to mini -malls. In response to the loud public protests over growth issues, city elected officials greatly expanded bureaucracy that recom- mends and enforces development controls. In many instances. the staff replaced the elected official as decision -maker. On top of this came the voter -approved Proposition U in 1986, which cut the building potential of most of the city's commercial property by half. One other change finally Upped the scale of decision-making authority from devel- opers and elected officials to neighborhood groups and the bureaucrats. The city imposed campaign contribution limits in 1987,June. and last year state voters transferpassed tion 73, which prohibited the candidate to declare whtical ich race he or forced was raising money for. This lessened the role that developers, attorneys and lobby. . kits play in financing pollUcal campaigns. and and their ted d elm deco ers to increasingly deferring the only appointees certaint at and thrd those pee& who hold the deed- ood ko a particular neigh. M resolve local can- cer" the,. projects will be held hostage. n- lwillbeheldhe. t 1 e t r c jumped the curb to the rest of the city. Bt the solution is not found in blocking neo' development. In fact, our only vehicle fo renewing the city and solving our prob lems, short of new revenue sources, i private development. But to continue at tracting this private investment. we need new social contract. Under this proposed truce, propert; owners and developers would agree to full• mitigate all adverse impacts on a communi ty from a new project. The environments review mandated by the California Envi ronmental Quality Act would be the pro. cess used to objectively determine impact, and subsequent mitigation measures. 1 particularly deleterious impacts cannot be alleviated, then the project would be limited or another use could be made of the site. A commitment to abide by such process would be a substantial concessior from developers. • Coymme_fc ta 14610 )‘/Ict7 s* qr.? P.

Northcraf_, �. RE: Recommended actions regarding written communications The four letters on your May 9, 1989 agenda, as requested by Mayor Williams, would otherwise have been handled, and are so recommended to be handled, as follows: (a) Letter from Steven Goodell regarding trash - refer to the Building Department for abatement. (b) Letter from Brian McGoldrick regarding Mobilehome Park - City Manager response along the lines of the letter sent in response to similar letter received from Mrs. Fraschetti as well as status report on other items mentioned in his letter. (c) Letter from Michael Pitton regarding BMW operation - advise Mr. Pitton of receipt of a copy of the letter and our apprecia- tion for his continued interest and monitoring of the situation. (d) Letter from Harold Cohen - copies to the City Council, the Planning Department, and Planning Commission, with consideration as part of the General Plan and zoning standards review scheduled for 1989. As you know, all letters addressed to the Council are copied to the Council upon receipt, and again along with the response when it has been prepared by City staff./ • Elsa Fraschetti 531 Pier Avenue, #54 Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 Dear Mrs. Fraschetti: Citi of Hermosa 1r3. each Civic Center, 1315 Valley Drive, Hermosa Beach, California 90254-3885 May 4, 1989 Please accept my apology for the delay in responding to your April 3 letter. In addition to the press of business during the budget time of year, I had sent your letter to the Councilmembers for feedback whether any different response should be considered other than that sent in January of this year to another citizen who had inquired regarding rent control. The response sent in January appears to be the current continuing policy of the Council. Placing limits on the rights of property owners to rent their property and otherwise manage it has been a strong issue in various communities, though it is not a particularly strong issue in our community. As I am sure you are aware, there are philosophical differences regarding how much intervention a government should have in placing limits on the free market, property rights, and the rights of development. In our community, there has been no move- ment to increase any protection of individuals who choose to rent as their choice of a lifestyle. As most of us have been both renters and owners, there are pluses and minuses to each, and your letter certain- ly reflects some of the minuses to your choice of lifestyle. While the City has an interest in maintaining affordable housing that Marineland Mobile Home Park represents, the level of our activity must be balanced with the concern about too much government interference. with private property rights. I do hope to be able in the near future to get an idea of the competitiveness of the rates being charged by the current owner of your park, and consult with him regarding an up- date on his plans for the park and justification for his current pad fees. Beyond that, I would be less than candid to imply that more efforts would be appropriate or should be expected from City representatives. I am sorry this letter is not a more positive response to your con- cerns, but I did wish to acknowledge your letter and convey at least my interpretation of the current policy of the City. Your letter and my response will be copied to the City Council who may contact you if they wish to discuss the matter further or place it on the City Coun- cil agenda for discussion. Sincerely yours, evin B. Northcraft City Manager cc: City Council 1 April 03, 1969 City of Hermosa Beach Q ivic Center, 1315 .alley Lr. ve, hermosa Beach, Ca. 9054-3665 (To Mayor and City i;duncil) (attention Kevin) Lear Kevin: :.e would like to make a very important request and that is ---- for a reccommendation for Rent Control for Marineland t obilehome Park. Since the last time we talked our situation has gotten a lot worse and our rents are due to go up again just like clock work in July 89. many senior citizen's who are on fixed income are being forced to sell their homes if they can sell them, the reason why I say that is because we have been told by prosieotive buyers that the space rents are way too high right now and that the park is very run down, ao6 the other bad news is that the nark will olose in 5 years, at least that's what one resident was told by Park Management. we would appreciate a quick reply. Yours very truly, Marineland Mobilehome Parkomeoyy��@@i s ssocla ion Vice President Elsa Fraschetti 531 Pier avenue ,54 Hermosa Beach Ca. 90254 • J Stephen B. Goodell 1322 Sunset Drive Hermosa Beach, California 90254 (213) 379-1534 April 15, 1989 June Williams Mayor City of Hermosa Beach 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, California 90$54-3885 Dear June: My wife, Patti Hausler, told me that you share our concern for the persistent problems we've experienced for years with trash, garbage and .junk piled at the corner of Sunset Drive and Pier Avenue. We've written to the City (copy attached), contacted many City representatives and the Health Department over the years. These individuals may have contacted the prime offender, Cher Ton Ton Restaurant, but no real solution has ever been reached. In fact, we've seen it worsen recently. Here's a brief history: My wife purchased our house in 1979. At that time, there were no trash containers on Sunset Drive adjacent to Cher Ton Ton. Then a small one appeared. Quickly it became inadequate to hold the Restaurant's refuse. It often was overfilled. the Restaurant increased the collection frequency, with some encouragement from complaints. Success begat success, and the present, large sized container replaced the junior size. As the pictures taken over recent years show, even that container often overflows. When Broasted Chicken started operations a few years ago, they placed their junior sized container next to the Restaurant's. It is also filled to capacity or overflowing by the end of a normal weekend. At the opposite end of the commercial complex is located a third container for Stimpson's 'Market. In addition to the increasing number of containers, their size, their location and the fact that they are often overfilled, these are the other problems we've faced and reported: 1. Location of the containers invite their use as urinal, with most and frequent observations during warmer times of year and on weekends. 4a 4 June Williams, Mayor April 15, 1989 Page two 2. We've witnessed a car hit and drag both containers a distance of five to 10 feet. 3. Location is a traffic hazard when cars are travelling in both directions, at a particularly difficult intersection already. 4. Used restaurant equipment is left on Sunset Drive when replaced or retired. During the last five months, equipment has remained there for up to eight weeks -- even with City warnings and our request directly to Restaurant Mangers after a few days. 5. One incident of a rat which found its way into our garage and eventually our house about three years ago. 6. Discarding refuse, particularly bottles, loudly into the steel container at 11:00 p.m. and until closing hours. 7. Airborne bacteria and smell of garbage rotting during Summer hours, to the extent we're unable to open windows because of smell and flies. As I outlined in my earlier letter, we believe there is a reasonable solution: Consolidate the three containers, relocate the larger one on the west end of the property, and enclose it. Our home is important to us, and so is the appearance of our neighborhood. In addition, this is the view from our Chamber of Commerce. I think there's a solution. How can we work together to implement it? Thanks again for your concern. .Please route this to other members of our City Council, or advise me to. Sincerely, S ep.en . Goodell P.S. Some photos are in file with my January 26, 1989 letter. I'm also enclosing some new ones, plus a sketch on the photo of the west end of the commercial property. 30 NORTH RAYMOND AVENUE SUITE 708 PASADENA, CALIF. 91103-3930 JAMES P LOUGH ATTORNEY AT LAW May 3, 1989 CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH MEMORANDUM TEL: (818) 192.4728 (818) N2-4776 FAX: (818) 449-6873 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF MAY 9, 1989 TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: James P. Lough, City Attorney RE: Introduction of "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, Adopting, Ratifying, and Readopting Ordinance Numbers 85-804, 86-832, 86-837, 87-896, and 88-967 Concerning Tax Measures." RECOMMENDED ACTION: To introduce the above -entitled ordinance. This ordinance is presented to the City Council to reaffirm the Council's intent regarding the above-mentioned taxes. Two recent appellate decisions have invalidated Proposition 62 which attempted to regulate the way that cities adopt general and special taxes. Adoption of this measure would re -enforce the validity of the city's taxes that were adopted by a vote of the people and also adopted during the window period covered by Proposition 62. Proposition 62 has been invalidated by two appellate courts as being unconstitutional. While such an invalidation should not affect the validity of the taxes referenced in the attached ordinance, this ordinance is being brought forward to reaffirm the Council's intent that these taxes are valid and binding and should continue in full force and effect.

Contiguous lots which are assembled generally result in reaching closer to the maximum density allowed. Staff is intending to study the matter of lowering the allowed density in the R-2 and also the R-3 Zone in the course of revising the General Plan which is the appropriate method of changing density levels. In the interim, an ordinance limiting density on assembled lots to a maximum of two units per existing lot over 3,500 sq. ft. and on an existing lot of 5,250 sq. ft. or greater except when the Planning Commission has granted a higher density via a site plan review could be adopted; assembled lots under 3,500 sq. ft. could have one unit except with site plan review. Recommendation If the City Council desires an zoning ordinance as suggested in this report, then, direct staff to prepare a interim ordinance imposing a site plan review for density as noted above.

Analysis At the time ordinance 88-956 was adopted, the R -2B zone was not included since it did not appear to be a problem. Now that there are several areas recently rezoned to R -2B, they should be included in the moratorium. Specificly the area between Barney Court and Meyer Court and 1st Street and the City limits was once zoned R-2 and is now R -2B. It was not originally included by staff because the R-1 lots to the east sided on the R-2 (now R -2B) lots instead of fronting on. However, these lots may have some view blockage, and should also be included in the amended ordinance. Since the current ordinance ends on July 8th, amending the current ordinance without an extension would not serve any purpose.

WHEREAS, the City Council held a public hearings on May 3, 1989, and made the following Findings: A.

Pacific Coast Highway; C. The designation of Commercial Corridor will be applied to a more focused area along the east and west side of Pacific Coast Highway than the Multi -Use Corridor designation to recognize more realistically the the limits of the depth of commercial development acceptable to the citizens of the City.

Staff recommends adoption of attached resolution recommending approval of the General Plan Amendment and Zoning Change. 2. Approval of the attached Resolution for a Precise Plan subject to conditions. Background At the January 3, 1989 meeting, the Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit (C.U.P.) for a proposed.drive-thru restaurant. The C.U.P. was conditionally approved to require a zone change for a portion of the parking lot which was residentially zoned. Analysis The current use of the subject property is a parking lot for an existing drive-thru restaurant which will be replaced with the same use, but with a different building and food product - chickens instead of hot dogs. Staff believes, therefore, that no detrimental impact will occur. Since the Planning Commission approval of the C.U.P. for the new restaurant, staff has found no reasons that would suggest that the General Plan Amendment and Zone Change should not be approved. It should also be noted that the property is zoned C -Potential which means that the City has determined that this property could be rezoned for Commercial Use in the future. 4- icfiaef Schubach Planning Director T/pcsr1107 March 14, 1989 Honorable Chairman and Members of the Regular Meeting of Hermosa Beach Planning Commission March 21, 1989 SUBJECT: GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENTS FOR AREAS NUMBER 6, 10 AND 12 LOCATION: REFER TO ATTACHED MAPS INITATED BY PLANNING COMMISSION AND CITY COUNCIL PURPOSE: TO REDESIGNATE AREAS PREVIOUSLY STUDIED FOR REZONING IN ORDER TO GAIN GENERAL PLAN/ZONING CONSISTENCY Recommendation Area 6: Redesignate from Low Density to High Density. Area 10: Redesignate from Low to Medium Density. Area 12: Redesignate from General Commercial to Low and High Density. Background Area 6 At the 10/18/88 Planning Commission meeting, the Planning Commission recommended not rezoning the subject property to R-1, but instead redesignating the property High Density Residential for consistency sake. The City Council concurred with the Planning Commission at their November 22, 1988 meeting. Area 10 At the November 15, 1988 meeting, the Planning Commission rezoned the subject area from R-2 to R -2B instead of R-1, and recommended the General Plan be amended to Medium Density for General Plan/Zoning consistency. At the December 13, 1988 meeting, the City Council concurred with the Planning Commission. Area 12 At the November 15, 1988 meeting, the Planning Commission recommended leaving the property R-3, and changing the General Plan to High Density. At the December 13, 1988 meeting, the City Council concurred with the Planning Commission. Analysis Area 6 This area consists of one 39,082 square foot lot which has already been developed to R-3 standards. An extensive analysis of this •area was prepared in conjunction with consideration to rezone this property to R-1, and it was determined to instead redesignate the property High Density (Refer to attached minutes for details). Area 10 Similarly .to Area 6 above, Area. 10 was considered for a zone change. However, in this instance, the subject area was rezoned R -2B which requires a General Plan amendment to Medium Density (Refer to attached Planning Commission minutes). Area 12 This area has been expanded to include the R-1 zoned area to the west. It would not be logical to redesignate the R-3 zoned area to High Density without redesignating the adjacent R-1 zone to Low Density. This amendment will make the General Plan/Zoning consistent. The R-3 zoned area was carefully analyzed when it was considered for rezoning and like the other areas it was determined that the General Plan should be changed instead. /7 A44;:7//// Michael Schubahc Planning Director T/pcsrarea March 15, 1989 Honorable Chairman and Members of the Regular Meeting of Hermosa Beach Planning Commission March 21, 1989 SUBJECT: GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NUMBER 89-5, AND ZONE CHANGE NUMBER 89-2 LOCATION: PRIVATELY OWNED PORTION OF BILTMORE SITE, LEGALLY DESCRIBED AS LOTS 1-10 INCLUSIVE AND LOTS 30 AND 31, BLOCK 14, HERMOSA BEACH TRACT INITIATED BY CITY COUNCIL PURPOSE: TO REPEAL THE GENERAL PLAN AND THE ZONING SPECIFIC PLAN AREA (SPA), AND CONSIDER THE PROPERTY FOR C-2 ZONING Recommendation The Planning Staff recommends redesignating and rezoning the subject property to General Commercial, C-2. Background At the November 22, 1988 City Council meeting, the City Council adopted a resolution of intent to repeal the Specific Plan Area and study rezoning to C-2. Analysis The subject property was originally designated and zoned for commercial use other than just specifically a hotel. The property was once an extension to the C-2 zone to the south and east, and continues to be a logical extension to the adjacent C-2 zoning. The General Plan designation of General Commercial is also compatible with the Commercial-Receation designation to the northeast. At this time, it is uncertain what the public owned portion of the Biltmore Site to the north will be rezoned, however, 14th Street does separate the properties and that will act as a buffer to a small extent. If the public owned portion is rezoned R-1, ideally additional buffering should be considered. Possibly converting that portion of 14th Street to walk street status; thereby prohibiting vehicle traffic; placing landscaping with a meandering sidewalk would create an effective buffer. T/pcsrspa iq �4- (( Michail Schubac Planning Director GENERAL PLAN REDESIGNATION AND ZONE CHANGE FROM MEDIUM DENSITY R-2 TO GENERAL COMMERCIAL C-3 OR TO SUCH OTHER ZONE AS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND APPROVAL OF THE PRECISE PLAN AND ENVIRONMENTAL NEGATIVE DECLARATION AT 1107 PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY (LOT 4, BLOCK 1, TRACT 6851 ONLY) Mr. Schubach gave staff report dated March 14, 1989. At the January 3, 1989, meeting the Planning Commission approved a conditional use permit for a proposed drive-thru restaurant. The CUP was conditionally approved to require a zone change for a portion of the parking lot which was residentially zoned. The current use of the subject property is a parking lot for an existing drive-thru restaurant which will be replaced with the same use, but with a different building and food product; i.e., chickens instead of hot dogs. Staff believes, therefore, that no detrimental impact will occur. Since the Planning Commission approval of the CUP for the=.new restaurant, staff has found no reasons that would suggest that the general plan amendment and zone change should not be approved. Staff recommended adoption of the proposed resolution recommending approval of the general plan amendment and zone change, as well as approval of the proposed resolution for a precise plan, subject to conditions. Public Hearing opened at 10:08 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. Roger Bacon, owner of 1107 Pacific Coast Highway, applicant, stated that the project is progressing well. He said that originally he had planned to move the entire currently existing Der Wienerschnitzel to another location; however, he will now move only the equipment. He said plans are moving along well, and the operator of the Der Wienerschnitzel is being apprised of developments as they occur. Mr. Bacon said the El Pollo Loco in Manhattan Beach is doing quite well; he also thinks the Hermosa Beach location will do very well. Mr. Bacon stated that the parcel in question will be used strictly for parking. Steve Lewis, representing El Pollo Loco, stated that he read staff's recommendation and he concurs with their report. Betty Ryan, 588 20th Street, asked about the left -turn pocket which has been removed from the highway and how people will enter the proposed El Pollo Loco. She asked whether the traffic will be redirected. P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 f { Mr. Bacon stated that meetings have been held with representatives from Cal Trans, and the left -turn pocket is going to be replaced in the near future. He continued by explaining the discussions which took place between him and the Cal Trans people in regard to this issue. Public Hearing closed at 10:15 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. MOTION by Comm.

Area 6 At the October 18, 1988, meeting, the Planning Commission recommended not rezoning the subject property to R-1, but instead redesignated the property high density residential for the sake of consistency. The City Council concurred with the Planning Commission at their November 22, 1988, meeting. Area 6 consists of one 39,082 square -foot lot which has already been developed to R-3 standards. An extensiveanalysis of this area. was prepared in conjunction with consideration to rezone this property to R-1, and it was determined to instead redesignate this property as high density. Public Hearing opened at 10:18 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. Ken Selk, 2441 Prospect, supported the staff recommendation for this property. He said there would be significant impact to the homeowners if the property is downzoned. Public Hearing closed at 10:19 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 t C Area 10 At the November, 15, 1988, meeting, the Planning Commission rezoned the subject area from R-2 to R-28 instead of R-1 and recommended that the general plan be amended to medium density for general plan/zoning consistency. At • the December 13, 1988, meeting, the City Council concurred with the Planning Commission. Similar to Area 6, Area 10 was considered for a zone change. However, in this instance, the subject area was rezoned R -2B which requires a general plan amendment to medium density. Public Hearing opened at 10:20 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. Chmn. Peirce noted that the Commission had received two letters opposing the proposed change. Eleanor Downs, owner of 1036 7th Street, questioned why the area is being rezoned from low density to medium density. She stated that people want to reduce the density because of traffic and parking problems already in the area. She stated that single- family homes will be replaced with multiple units if the area goes to medium density. Mr. Schubach clarified that a general plan amendment is being proposed, not a rezone. He said this area was previously rezoned to R -2B, which was determined to be appropriate for the area. Ken Cullin, 122 Barney Court, stated that a change to R -2B means his view will be blocked off, because the R -2B designation allows five additional feet over his R-1 zone. He noted that the streets in this area are one-way because- the traffic used to be so heavy. He has lived in this house 22 years, and it is now almost impossible to park on 1st Place, 1st Street, or Barney Court. 1st Place has driveway cuts; and most people do not park in their garages. He stressed that parking is very bad, and the employees of the telephone company create tremendous traffic jams on these small streets. Because of these reasons, he opposed the change in density. John Schneider, 111 Barney Court, has owned this property for 25 years. He agreed that the parking is very bad in the area. He said the houses had been R-2 for almost 20 years; therefore, he welcomed the fact that they are going to be rezoned back to medium density. Roger Gillespie, 1026 2nd Street, noted concern over changing from low density to a higher density. He agreed that parking is very bad; if the area goes to medium density, people will then park on 2nd Street since there. are already parking problems on 1st Street. He also noted concern over the height limits and his potential loss of view which could impact his property value. Public•Hearing closed at 10:27 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. Comm. Rue stated that the density will not be increased by this change. He stated that the zoning went from R-2 to R -2B, which limits the number of units which can be built on those sites. He stated that he will support the original recommendation, explaining that he feels it is the appropriate action for this area. Comm. Edwards felt that. the only way to decrease the density is to lower the density designation; therefore, he could not support the staff recommendation. — P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 r Mr. Schubach explained that with the large size of the lots, however, the R -2B designation actually reduces the density in this area because now only a maximum of two units can be built per lot, no matter what the lot size is. Public Hearing reopened at 10:33 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. Carey Downs, 1036 2nd Street, asked when the first change was made and why the residents were not noticed. He said he didn't remember ever hearing anything about this matter in the past. He did not feel the noticing procedure was correct. He said it is now too late to protest against R -2B zoning when the area should still be low density. Mr. Schubach explained that the previous zoning of R-2 was higher density. He clarified for Mr. Downs that the general plan differs from the zoning. Public Hearing closed at 10:35 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. Area 12 At the November 15, 1988, meeting, the Planning Commission recommended leaving the property R-3 and changing the general plan designation. At the December 13, 1988, meeting, the City Council concurred with the Planning Commission. Area 12 has been expanded to include the R-1 zoned area to the west. It would not be logical to redesignate the R-3 zoned area to high density without redesignating the adjacent R-1 zone to low density. This amendment will make the general plan/zoning consistent. The R-3 zoned area was carefully analyzed when it was considered for rezoning and like the other areas, it was determined that the general plan should be changed instead. Area 12 consists of three lots totaling 8,119 square feet, with ten existing apartment dwellings. Apparently, this area was zoned R-3 as a buffer between the R-1 zoning to the west and the C-3 zoning to the east. Comm. Rue noted that he received a notice in the mail regarding this property; therefore, he stated he would abstain from voting on this area. Public Hearing opened and closed at 10:33 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce as no one appeared to speak on Area 12. Chmn. Peirce suggested that separate votes be taken for each of the three areas, noting that only one resolution has been prepared for Areas 6, 10, and 12. Chmn. Peirce, in response to questions from Comm. Edwards, explained what is currently on the property in Area 6. Comm. Edwards suggested, instead, that the Area 6 zoning be changed to R-1 in order to conform with the general plan. MOTION by Chmn. Peirce, seconded by Comm. Ingell, to approve staff's recommendation to redesignate Area 6 from low density to high density. AYES: Comms. Ingell, Ketz, Rue, Chmn. Peirce NOES: Comm. Edwards ABSTAIN: None ABSENT: None ,a3— P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 MOTION by Chmn. Peirce, seconded by Comm. Ingell, to approve staff's recommendation to redesignate Area 10 from low density to medium density. Comm. Edwards noted that the original staff report stated that this area appears to be borderline. He continued by reading from the minutes of the previous hearing. He felt this area is marginal; therefore, he felt the area should be R-1 and the general plan should not be changed. AYES: Comms.

At the November 22, 1988, City Council meeting, the City Council adopted a resolution of intent to repeal the Specific Plan Area and study rezoning to C-2. The subject property was originally designated and zoned for commercial use other than just specifically a hotel.

Notary Public _30- • DATE: Mar. 14, 1989 TO: Planning Department City of.Hermosa Beach 1315 Valley Dr Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 FROM: Carol Kirsch 939 1st Street Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 SUBJECT: General Plan Redesignation for Area 10 &8AR.I. `'~~-- � � ��� mr The proposed change for Area 10 from Low Density to Medium Density is not in the best interest of the residents in the neighborhood. Traffic on First Str. from Pacific Coast Highway east to Area 10 is already heavy for a residential street. Because of the hill'on First Street, the cars and numerous trucks that use the road usually use low, noisy gears to ascend the street. The noise from this traffic is very disturbing to the neighborhood. \ Parking is another issue to consider in allowing an increase in,the density of the area. Parking is very scarce because many of streets are narrow. Parking is only permitted on one side of the' -- street, in many cases. This makes parking for guests of residents hard to find. As a homeowner in this general area, I strongly oppose this potential change. It is not good for the neighborhood, and therefore, not good for the city. Thank you, � 962 First Street #D Hermosa Beach, California 90254 March 14, 1989 Planning Department City of Hermosa Beach 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, Calif. 90254 Re: Redesignation of Area 10 a,1 AR 1 5 1989 Dear Planning Department, When is enough enough? I thought the philosophy of the City Council was to move toward low density not the other way around. Your general plan map shows most of the area surrounding Area 10 is low density except for a high density section of First Street between Pacific Coast Hwy. and Meyer Court. Why on earth or in congested Hermosa Beach would you consider eliminating a low density area. The eight and nine hundred block of First Street is already too congested but since we are a high density area there's is not much we can do about it. Two years ago two small, quaint houses at 963 First St. were torn down to make room for a mammoth, towering, apartment building. Now I feel like this section of. First Street is Wall Street, west, albeit only a fraction of the height of Wall Street, east. But to add to the congestion and severe shortage of parking, and detract from the residential nature of Area ten seems ludicrous. I suggest the Planning Department take a drive through Area ten and perhaps try to park a car during evenings or weekends. Although developers are required to provide additional parking, there is never enough, especially when guests come for a visit. I, my wife, and a majority of the Cariker Hermosa View Condominium Association which I represent, strongly request that you maintain the low density status of Area ten. Sincerely, SCE 1` 47411 z Lee H. Grant, President Cariker's Hermosa View Condominium Association Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council April 18, 1989 Regular Meeting of April 25, 1989 SUBJECT: GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENTS CHANGING THE LOCATION OF BOUNDARIES AND POLICIES REGARDING THE MULTI -USE CORRIDOR AND TO CONSIDER SPECIFIC PLAN AREA DESIGNATIONS AND ENVIRONMENTAL NEGATIVE DECLARATION INITIATED BY CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION To amend the text of the Land Use Element of the General Plan by eliminating the land use category "Multi -Use Corridor," and creating a category "Commercial Corridor" and adopting a set of policies for the establishment of Specific Plan Areas within the Commercial Corridor. This recommendation is contained in Resolution P.C. 89-28. To amend •the General Plan Map by redesignating a portion of the Multi -Use Corridor to Commercial Corridor and the remaining areas to a Residential designation as depicted on the attached map "Exhibit 1, Planning Commission Recommendation." This recommendation is contained in Resolutions P.C. 89-29 and 89-30. STAFF RECOMMENDATION To amend the text of the Land Use Element of the General Plan pursuant to the recommendation of the Planning Commission by adopting the proposed resolution. To amend the General Plan Map as depicted on "Exhibit 2, Staff Recommendation" and to adopt the proposed resolutions. BACKGROUND The recommendation of the Planning Commission differs from the recommendation of Staff in only the following four locations within the Multi -Use Corridor: 1. 15th Street to 16th Street (east side P.C.H.). Staff recommends MD Residential for area south of 15th Place, Planning Commission recommends LD. 2. 17th Street to 21st Street (frontage lots, east side of Pacific Coast Highway). The Planning Commission was unable -33- to reach an agreement for a recommendation as two members preferred Mp Residential, one member preferred HD Residential, and one preferred Commercial Corridor. As a result no recommendation was made by the Planning Commission on this area. Staff recommends Commercial Corridor. 3. 24th Street to 21st Street (west side of.P.C.H.). Planning Commission recommends a commercial designation for only the frontage lots. Staff recommends a depth of 290 feet along the north side of 21st Street. 4. 5th Street to 4th Street (west side. of P.C.H.). Planning Commission recommends not to include 731 4th Street in the Commercial Corridor. This report includes an additional analysis and explanation of the four areas noted above. Please refer to the original Planning Commission Staff Report for detailed discussion and analysis on the remaining blocks within the MUC. SUPPLEMENTAL ANALYSIS Locating the Commercial Corridor boundary as recommended by the Planning Commission would result in a potiential increase in commercially developed acreage of 2.7 acres over the current amount of 26.7 acres within the area of the Multi -Use Corridor,` or about 10 percent. It would also result in a potential reduction of 1.8 acres under the current residential acreage of 25.9 acres, or 7 percent. Staff's recommended location would result in a potential increase of commercially developed acreage of about 20 percent and a reduction of residential land use of about 17 percent. The following is a supplemental analysis of the areas where Staff and Planning Commission recomendations differ (page numbers refer to the original PC staff report): 15TH STREET TO 16TH STREET, EAST SIDE (pages 33-35) Staff and the Planning Commission agree on the recommended depth of the Commercial Corridor for this block. However, in regards to the residential designation for the three lots on the south side of 15th Place, the Planning Commission recommends Low Density while staff recommends Medium Density. The reason for the Planning Commission's Recommendation is because of the Low Density/R-1 designation of property to the east. The reason Staff believes the area should be medium density is because of the current R-2 zoning, the existing uses on the lots (3 -unit apartment buildings) and for consistency with the Medium density designation to the south. 17TH STREET TO 21ST STREET, EAST SIDE (pages 38-45) The Planning Commission, in response to the concerns of residents who live in this area near Pacific Coast Highway, did not endorse Staff's recommendation that the frontage lots be included in the Commercial Corridor designation (with the exception of the commercial lot located on the north corner o•f 17th and P.C.H). However, the Commission could not come to agreement on whether the frontage should be designated for High Density or Medium Density. Two Commissioners preferred Medium Density, one preferred High Density, and one preferred Commercial Corridor. Several residents of this area have expressed opposition to any commercial designation along P.C.H. frontage for various reasons, including view blockage, traffic, parking, and crime. Although many of their concerns are certainly legitimate, staff feels that the commercial designation to a depth of about 100 feet is the most appropriate designation for this area as it takes advantage of the value of P.C.H. frontage, while a residential designation would provide for a use that conflicts with the noise, pollution and safety hazards associated with a major highway. Also, the current General Plan designation of MUC and zoning designation of R-3 (C) would allow the construction of multi -family structures to a height of 35 feet, the generation of additional residential traffic and parking, and would certainly increase the congestion for the area. Commercial development controlled under the provisions of a Specific Plan Area designation, however, would be' subject to requirements addressing setbacks, buffering, landscaping, architectural treatment, and height. The following is a comparison of what would be allowed under an R-3 designation and under a Commericial Corridor SPA designation. R-3 (C) ZONING CORRIDOR SPA Project none review for design, Review traffic impact Setbacks Buffering View Impact Traffic Impacts 5' rear 3' on alley not required 35' height limit no project review directed to alley, congestion at night, weekends min. 8' from res. property, plus 2' for each additional story landscaping req'd, screening set height limit, consider in project review directed to P.C.H. daytime usage Parking night, weekend provided on site, impact daytime impact Staff continues to recommend locating the commercial boundary along the rear of the frontage lots as shown on the detailed maps on pages 38-45 of the original report. 24TH STREET TO 21ST STREET, WEST SIDE (pages 50-51) The Planning Commission recommends locating the Commercial Corridor boundary along the north side of 21st at a depth of 115 feet. The current C-3 zoning goes to a depth 220 feet. The reason the Commission recommends reducing the allowed commmercial depth is because 115 feet represents the extent of the existing depth of commercial development and because of the proximity of potential commercial develpment to residents living on the south side of 24th Street. Because the lots are deep and narrow, the Planning Commission recommended a designation of Medium Density for the lots at a depth of 115' feet to 290 feet. Staff continues to recommend locating the Commercial Corridor boundary at a depth of 290 feet for the reasons noted in the original report on page 50, and those noted below. Several residents who live on 24th Street expressed their concern with staff's recommendation to locate the Commercial Corridor boundary at a depth of 290 feet along 21st Street. They expressed concern about the possible loss of views and privacy currently enjoyed because the existing commercial depth only goes to a depth of 115 feet. However, the current C-3 zoning actually extends to a depth of 220 feet because of a previous City Council approval of a hotel. Staff would like to emphasize that under the provisions of a Specific Plan any commmercial development would be required to provide buffering from the residential uses, and would be subject to the scrutiny of the Planning Commission for appropriateness for that location. The additional 70 feet of depth, should a developer wish to purchase it, would provide additional space for this type of buffering to enhance the project. Also, the additional 70 feet of property could be developed with single family residences under the provisions for residential use within the SPA giving the owner of that property both options. The following is a comparison of the impacts associated with either an R-2 or R -2B zoning recommended by the Planning Commission, a Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Area, or the current C-3 zoning. Project Review Setbacks R-2 ZONING none 5' rear CORRIDOR S.P.A. C-3 ZONING review for design, traffic impact min. 8' from res. property, plus 2' for each additional story and possibly more none 8' from res. prop. + 2' each add'l story • R-2 ZONING CORRIDOR S.P.A. C-3 ZONING Buffering not required landscaping not req'd screening req'd View Impact 30' ht. limit, no project review set ht. limit consider view in project review 45'ht.. limit, no review Traffic nights days, same, Impacts weekends directed to limited P.C.H control Parking nights provided on site same, weekends daytime impact limited oriented to P.C.H control Staff's recommendation has not changed, as an alternative, however, Council may want to consider excluding the additional 70 feet from the Commercial Corridor, and recommend its redesignation to Low or Medium Density Residential. 5TH STREET TO 4TH STREET, WEST SIDE (pages 61-62) The Planning Commission recommended not to include 731 4th Street in the Commercial Corridor, noting the concerns of the condominium owners immediately to the west, and that the depth would not be consistent with the commercial depth to thesouth if it was included. Staff's position is that 731 4th Street is an older single-family home surrounded by high density residential on one side and commercial on the other. The commercial parking area to the east could be expanded to help the businesses there, and would be a more appropriate use, given the surroundings, than an R-2 use. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENTS In order to implement any General Plan Amendments approved by the Council for the Multi -Use Corridor several areas of the MUC will have to be rezoned. Staff is prepared to initiate these zone changes as part of a package for all areas involved in this study area. However, the areas could be broken up into smaller areas (i.e. Southeast, Northeast, Northwest, Southwest) if the Council would rather phase the rezonings. Please note that the adoption of the General Plan Amendments will not lift the moratorium. In fact, in order to carry out the original intent of this study, it is clear that the moratorium should not be lifted until specific zoning designations and standards are enacted by the adoption of new ordinances.

WHEREAS, the City Council held a public hearing on March 21, 1989 and made the following Findings: A. The land use category of Multi -Use Corridor, established in 1966, is no longer an appropriate land use designation for the Pacific Coast Highway commercial corridor as it does not clearly convey the City's goals and objectives for development along the corridor; B. Creation of the land use category of Commercial Corridor as a designation for the Pacific Coast Highway commercial corridor is an appropriate designation as it more clearly conveys a commitment to commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway; C. The designation of Commercial Corridor will be applied to a more focused area along the east and west side of Pacific Coast Highway than the Multi -Use Corridor designation to recognize more realistically the the limits of the depth of commercial development acceptable to the citizens of the City. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, does hereby amendthe Text of the Land Use Element of the General Plan to eliminate the Land Use category of "Multi -Use Corridor" and create the Land Use category of "Commercial Corridor" and the following text shall be added to the Land Use Element of the General Plan: Commercial Corridor - The purpose of this land use category is to clearly define the limits of the depth of commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway and prohibit the 1 2 3 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 A. 24 25 26 27 28 development of new residential uses within the area with exceptions for vacant property not fronting on Pacific Coast Highway: Existing residential uses within the corridor are expressly allowed and can be improved, expanded and rebuilt to the same density, however, the transition of these uses to commercial usage is highly desirable. This category allows various tYPes of commercial land uses including retail, service, and office uses. Automotive related commercial uses would be allowed by conditional use permit only. To ensure that commercial development will be compatible with existing nearby residential uses standards for building height, parking and access, . setbacks, and landscaping will be implemented through Specific Plan Area designations Policies: 1) Existing structures used for residential purposes on a lot or parcel which is exclusively used for residential purposes are permitted to remain indefinitely, and shall be considered conforming uses, allowing said structure to be improved, rebuilt, or expanded, as long as the existing residential density is not increased. 2) Residentially developed and vacant property can only be used for commercial purposes if the property fronts on Pacific Coast Highway or is part of an assemblage of properties containing a commercial project which fronts on Pacific Coast Highway. 3) New residential projects shall be prohibited, except in the following cases: a) on currently vacant lots or parcels of land which do not front on Pacific coast Highway and which are not currently connected by ownership to lots fronting on Pacific Coast Highway and which will be developed to a density consistent with surrounding residential densities allowed by the General Plan, subject to review and approval by the Planning Commission; and, b) the improvement, expansion, or reconstruction of current residential structures which does not increase the current residential density (number of dwelling units) of the lot or parcel of land and said improvement, expansion, or reconstruction must conform to the zoning standards. 4) Height limits and the method of measurement shall be established which will minimize impacts of commercial development on scenic views and on the privacy of adjacent residences. 5) Landscaping requirements shall be established to improve the attractiveness of development along Pacific Coast Highway and to buffer interfacing or abutting residential development. 1 2 . 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 6) Traffic impact studies shall be required for projects which will cause significant traffic impacts and these studies shall include proposed measures to mitigate the impacts. 7) All new commercial projects shall require Planning Commission Review to ensure compliance with the standards and policies of the Specific Plan Area, subject to City Council Appeal. 8) A list of permitted. uses shall be established which permits a broad range,of commercial and office related uses with emphasis given to uses which have the highest benefit to the community. 9) More than one SPA zone may be created for areas of the corridor based on the sub -area's unique features. 10) Orientation of all commercial development should be toward P.C.H. and not toward local residential streets. 11) Physical setbacks, and architectural treatment shall be provided where commercial and residential development abut, or interface 12) Assembled lots proposed for commercial developmet shall be merged as a condition of development.

CREATE A LAND USE CATEGORY OF COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR AND TO ADOPT A STATEMENT OF POLICIES FOR THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR AND.RECOMMENDING AN ENVIRONMENTAL NEGATIVE DECLARATION. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on March 21, 1989 and made the following Findings: A. The land use category of Multi -Use Corridor, established in 1966, is no longer an appropriate land use designation for the Pacific Coast Highway commercial corridor as it does not clearly convey the City's goals and objectives for development along the corridor; B. Creation of the land use category of Commercial Corridor as a designation for the Pacific Coast Highway commercial corridor is an appropriate designation as it more clearly conveys a commitment to commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway; C. The designation of Commercial Corridor will be applied to a more focused area along the east and west side of Pacific Coast Highway than the Multi -Use Corridor designation to recognize more realistically the the limits of the depth of commercial development acceptable to the citizens of the City.. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, does hereby recommend that the Text of the Land Use Element of the General Plan shall be amended to eliminate the Land Use category of "Multi -Use Corridor" and create the Land Use category of "Commercial Corridor" and the following text shall be added to the Land Use Element of the General Plan: 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 Commercial Corridor - The purpose of this land use category is to clearly define the limits of the depth of commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway and prohibit the developmdnt of new residential uses within the area with exceptions for vacant property not fronting on Pacific Coast Highway. Existing residential uses within the corridor are expressly allowed and can be improved, expanded and rebuilt to the same density, however, the transition of these uses to commercial usage is highly desirable. This category allows various types of commercial land uses including retail, service, and office uses. Automotive related commercial uses would be allowed by conditional use permit only. To ensure that commercial development will be compatible with existing nearby residential uses standards for building height, parking and access, setbacks, and landscaping will be implemented through Specific Plan Area, designations Policies: 1) Existing structures used for residential purposes on a lot or parcel which is exclusively used for residential purposes are permitted to remain indefinitely, and shall be considered conforming uses, allowing said structure to be improved, rebuilt, or expanded, as long as the existing residential density is not increased. 2) Residentially developed and vacant property can only be used for commercial purposes if the property fronts on Pacific Coast Highway or is part of an assemblage of properties containing a commercial project which fronts on Pacific Coast Highway. 3) New residential projects shall be prohibited, except in the following cases: a) on currently vacant lots or parcels of land which do not front on Pacific coast Highway and which are not currently connected by ownership to lots fronting on Pacific Coast Highway and which will be developed to a density consistent with surrounding residential densities allowed by the General Plan, subject to review and approval by the Planning Commission; and, b) the improvement, expansion, or reconstruction of current residential structures which does not increase the current residential density (number of dwelling units) of the lot or parcel of land and said improvement, expansion, or reconstruction must conform to the zoning standards. 4) Height limits and the method of measurement shall be established which will minimize impacts of commercial development on scenic views and on the privacy of adjacent residences. 5) Landscaping requirements shall be established to improve the attractiveness of development along Pacific. Coast Highway and to buffer interfacing or abutting residential development. 6) Traffic impact studies shall be required for projects which will cause significant traffic impacts and these studies shall include proposed measures to mitigate the impacts. 7) All new commercial projects shall require Planning Commission Review to ensure compliance with the standards and policies of the Specific Plan Area, subject to City Council. Appeal. 8) A list of permitted uses shall be established which permits a broad range of commercial and office related uses with emphasis given to uses which have the highest benefit to the community. 9) More than one SPA zone may be created for areas of the corridor based on the sub -area's unique features. 10) Orientation ofall commercial development should be toward P.C.H. and not toward local residential streets. 11) Physical setbacks, and architectural treatment shall be provided where commercial and residential development abut, or interface 12) Assembled lots proposed for commercial developmet shall be merged as a condition of development.

Residential designations consistent with the residential areas located further west or east from Pacific Coast Highway are appropriate designations as they recognize established residential areas and clearly convey a commitment to continuing the residential use and development of these areas; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, does hereby recommend that the General Plan shall be amended as shown on the attached map and legally described as follows: 1.

J es Peirce, ChairmanM chae1'Schu6ach, Secretary tic-A11cl'Pf Date .4' / Honorable Chairman and Members of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission (CONTINUED FROM MARCH 21, 1989 MEETING) March 29, 1989 Regular Meeting of April 4, 1989 SUBJECT: GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENTS CHANGING THE LOCATION OF BOUNDARIES AND POLICIES REGARDING THE MULTI -USE CORRIDOR AND TO CONSIDER SPECIFIC PLAN AREA DESIGNATIONS AND ENVIRONMENTAL NEGATIVE DECLARATION INITIATED BY CITY COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission take the following actions regarding the Multi -Use -Corridor, and adopt the proposed resolutions. 1. Establish the boundary of the Pacific Coast Highway "Commercial Corridor" at the depths recommended in Exhibit "A" or at locations deemed appropriate by the Planning Commission. 2. Amend the General Plan Map to redesignate areas not within the Commercial Corridor from MUC to Low Density Residential, Medium Density Residential, or High Density Residential, depending on the adjacent designation. 3. Amend the Land Use Element of the General Plan by adopting the recommended definition for the "Commercial Corridor" and amend the General Plan Map to redesignate the area within the established boundary from MUC to Commercial Corridor 4. Adopt an Environmental Negative Declaration for the proposed General Plan Amendments. 5. Implement the General Plan changes by initiating zone changes for the residential areas outside the Commercial Corridor to classifications consistent with the adjacent residential classifications, and by adopting policies for the Specific Plan Area classifications to be applied in the Commercial Corridor. Initiate discussion on development standards and development review procedures to be applied in the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan' Areas. • 6. Consider the inclusion of existing commercial areas designated General Commercial on the General Plan Map located along Pacific Coast Highway within the Commercial Corridor. BACKGROUND The Planning Commission continued this item from the March 21, 1989 meeting to allow for further discussion of the subject on a block by block basis. In response to some of the concerns expressed at that meeting staff has. prepared a supplemental analysis. Please refer to the report prepared for the March 21, 1989 meeting for the specific .analysis and recommendations initially prepared by staff. Provided in this supplement is an explanation of the concept of allowing residential uses to continue and be improved in the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Area, and additional information and possible alternatives regarding the proposed boundary for the following areas which were discussed at the previous meeting: 18th Street to 21st Street (east side of P.C.H.) 24th Street to 21st Street (west side of P.C.H.) 1st Place to 1st Street (west side of P.C.H.) Staff has not changed its original recommendation .for these areas. For the other areas discussed at the meeting, 15th Street to 16th Street (east side), north of 21st Street (east side), and 5th Street to 4th Street (west side) staff has no additional comments and maintains its original recommendation. ANALYSIS RESIDENTIAL USE IN THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR The proposed policies for the Commercial Corridor include a provision for the continuation and limited improvement of existing residential uses in the Specific Plan Areas. This would allow structures currently used for residential purposes on lots which are exclusively used for residential purposes to maintain a conforming status, and to be improved at their current density. Also, if the dwelling was destroyed it could be reconstructed to the same density. It would not allow these residential uses to increase density which would currently be possible for areas which are zoned R-3. Also, the policies of the Commercial Corridor give exception to vacant properties not fronting on P.C.H., and with no ownership tie to property fronting on P.C.H, to develop new residential projects at a density consistent with adjacent residential densities. The - 6C- Commission is reminded that under the provisions of the proposed SPA any new residential project other than single-family, or any new commercial project will be subject to Planning Commission review and approval. In order to clarify the policies for residential use in the Commercial.Corridor Specific Plan Areas staff recommends that the definition of "Commercial Corridor" be modified to note exceptions to the prohibition of new residential projects and that the the proposed Policies Numbers 1 and 3 for the Commercial Corridor be modified to read as follows (see pages 6-8 of the original report and the modified •resolution P.C. 89-28, attached): 1) Existing structures used for residential purposes on a lot or parcel which is exclusively.used for residential purposes are permitted to remain indefinitely, and shall be considered conforming uses, allowing said structures to be improved, rebuilt, or expanded, as long as the existing residential density is not increased. 3) New residential projects shall be prohibited, except in the following cases: a) on currently vacant lots or parcels of land which do not front on Pacific Coast Highway and which are not currently connected by ownership to lots fronting on Pacific Coast Highway and which will be developed to a density consistent with surrounding residential densities allowed by the General Plan, subject to review and approval by the Planning Commission, and; b) the improvement, expansion, or reconstruction of current residential structures which does not increase the current residential density (number of dwelling units) of the lot or parcel of land. 18TH STREET TO 21ST STREET (EAST SIDE) Several residents who live in this area near Pacific Coast Highway expressed their opposition to any commercial designation along P.C.H. frontage for various reasons, including view blockage, traffic, parking, and crime. Although many of their concerns are certainly legitimate, staff feels that the commercial designation to a depth of about 100 feet is the most appropriate designation for this area as it takes advantage of the value of P.C.H. frontage, while a residential designation would provide for a use that conflicts with the noise, pollution and safety hazards associated with a major highway. Also, the current General Plan designation of MUC and zoning designation of R-3 (C) would allow the construction of multi -family structures to a height of 35 feet, the generation of additional residential traffic and parking, and would certainly increase the congestion for the area. Commercial development controlled under the provisions of a Specific Plan Area designation, however, would be subject to requirements addressing setbacks, buffering, landscaping, architectural treatment, and height. The following is a comparison of what would be allowed under an R-3 designation and under a Commericial Corridor SPA designation. Project Review Setbacks Buffering View Impact Traffic Impacts Parking R-3 (C) ZONING none 5' rear 3' on alley not required 35' height limit no project review directed to alley, congestion at night, weekends night, weekend impact daytime impact CORRIDOR SPA review for design, traffic impact min. 8' from res. property, plus 2' for each additional story landscaping req'd, screening set height limit, consider in project review directed to P.C.H. daytime usage provided on site,. Staff continues to recommend locating the commercial boundary along the rear of the frontage lots as shown on the map on page 44 of the original report. The alternative for the Commission, if it wishes to lock in residential uses on Pacific Coast Highway frontage lots, is to change the General Plan designation from MUC to High Density residential for the frontage lots, and recommend dropping the C -potential portion of the existing R-3 zoning classification. 24TH STREET TO 21ST STREET (WEST SIDE) Several residents who live on 24th Street expressed their concern with staff's recommendation to locate the Commercial Corridor boundary at a depth of 290 feet along 21st Street. (see page 50-51 of the original report) They primarily expressed concern about the possible loss of views and privacy currently enjoyed 6� because the existing commercial depth only goes to a depth of 115 feet. As previously noted, the current C-3 zoning goes to a depth of 220 feet (previously approved for a hotel, now expired), behind which is 70 more feet of vacant property. Staff would• like to emphasize that under the provisions of a Specific Plan any commmercial development would be required to provide buffering from the residential uses, and would be subject to the scrutiny of the Planning Commission for appropriateness for that location. The additional 70 feet of depth, should a developer wish to purchase it, would provide additional space for this type of buffering to enhance the project. Also, the additional 70 feet of property could be developed with single family residences under the provisions for residential use within the SPA giving the owner of that property both options. Staff's recommendation has not changed, as an alternative, however, the Commission may want to consider excluding the additional 70 feet from the Commercial Corridor, and recommend its redesignation to Low Density Residential. 1ST PLACE TO FIRST STREET (WEST SIDE) Residents living behind existing commercial uses along both sides of 1st Place have expressed concern with staff's recommendation to include the entire MUC in the Commercial Corridor SPA. (see pages 67-70 of the report) The residents have expressed similar concerns to those noted above regarding the proximity of commercial uses to their residences. Also noted was the concern of the value of their property being dependent on the plans of the owners of the Commercial property which does front on P.C.H. Again, it should be emphasized that the existing residential properties in question, under the proposed provisions of the SPA, can be improved or rebuilt to their existing density and would be considered conforming uses. Staff believes this to be appropriate as current densities do not exceed what would be allowed under an R-2 zone. The designation of the property within the Commercial Corridor gives the owners a second option, to sell for commercial purposes. Also, any commercial expansion would be subject to the standards of the SPA requiring buffering, and the review of the Planning Commission. The SPA designation would not allow the residential property owners to build new residential units to the R-3 density. Staff continues to recommend that the Commercial Corridor boundary extend to the existing depth of the MUC for these two blocks as shown on pages 68 and 70 of the report. An alternative • would be to locate the boundary at the existing C-3 depth and to • s recommend that the R -3(C) properties be redesignated to MD Residential, and to further recommend the rezoning of these properties to R-2 consistent with the residential properties to the west. 7 K •obertson A•vanced Planner CONCUR: zi ✓, f es • - f . ichael Sc ubach Planning Director MULTI -USE CORRIDOR STUDY & RECOMMENDATIONS March 15,1_989 Honorable Chairman and Members of the Regular Meeting of Hermosa Beach Planning Commission March 21, 1989 SUBJECT: GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENTS • CHANGING THE LOCATION OF BOUNDARIES AND POLICIES REGARDING THE MULTI -USE CORRIDOR AND TO .CONSIDER SPECIFIC PLAN AREA DESIGNATIONS AND ENVIRONMENTAL NEGATIVE DECLARATION INITIATED BY CITY COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission take the following actions regarding the Multi -Use -Corridor, and adopt the proposed resolutions. 1. Establish the boundary of the Pacific Coast Highway "Commercial Corridor" at the depths recommended in 'Exhibit "A" and more specifically described in Part II of this report. 2. Amend the General Plan Map to redesignate areas not within the Commercial Corridor from MUC to Low Density Residential, Medium Density Residential, or High Density Residential, depending on the adjacent designation. 3. Amend the Land Use Element of the General Plan by adopting the recommended definition for the "Commercial Corridor" and amend the General Plan Map to redesignate the area within the established boundary from MUC to Commercial Corridor 4. Adopt an Environmental Negative Declaration for the proposed General Plan Amendments. 5. Implement the General Plan changes by initiating zone changes for the residential areas outside the Commercial Corridor to classifications consistent with the adjacent residential classifications, and by adopting policies for the Specific Plan Area classifications to be applied in the Commercial Corridor. Initiate discussion on development standards and development review procedures to be applied in the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Areas. 6. Consider the inclusion of existing commercial areas designated General Commercial on the General Plan Map - 1 - CT) • BACKGROUND On November 9, 1988, the City Council adopted a 10 -month moratorium on residential and commercial construction for portions of the Multi -Use -Corridor. The purpose of the moratorium was to give staff sufficient time to study.the various land uses within the Multi -Use Corridor and to recommend changes in the policies, regulations, and land use designations which guide development in the Corridor. The primary reason for the study is to establish clearly defined limits to commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway which are consistent with the objectives of maximizing commercial development potential while minimizing impacts of commercial encroachment into nearby residential neighborhoods. On February 23, 1989 the Staff Environmental Review Committee recommended. the adoption of a Negative Declaration for the General Plan Amendments being considered for the Multi -Use Corridor because portions of the MUC are proposed to be changed to residential designations thereby reducing the potential intensity of land usage in the area. This report summarizes the study and analysis conducted by staff and includes recommendations for each block within the Multi -Use Corridor. ANALYSIS• AREA DESCRIPTION The Pacific Coast Highway commercial corridor directly abuts Pacific Coast Highway to the east and west, extending the length of the City of Hermosa Beach. There are four commercial sectors along Pacific Coast Highway, as listed below: Multi -Use Corridor - 1st to 8th Street General Commercial - 8th to 14th Street Multi -Use Corridor - Pier Avenue to 24th Street General Commercial - Gould Avenue/Pacific Coast Highway Commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway is irregular in depth and is broken up by a stretch of residential uses between 17th Street and 21st Street. Each commercial sector has a somewhat different character in terms of types and intensity of commercial uses. For example, automotive and repair services are the predominant uses in the Multi -Use Corridor between 1st Street and 8th Street. The most common uses in the General Commercial area between 8th Street and 14th Street are retail and service businesses. The land uses in the MUC between Pier Avenue and 24th Street are a mix of retail, office, and multi -family residential, including two newer developments, Plaza Hermosa and Hermosa Pavilion. Finally, in the General Commercial area near 2 (72) Gould Avenue the primary land uses are retail and service businesses. The total length of frontage on the east side and west side of Pacific Coast Highway in the City of Hermosa Beach is about 12,600 feet. The length of P.C.H. frontage within the MUC is over 8,200 feet. Approximately 76% of this frontage (6236 feet) is developed commercially. Additionally, 52.6 acres of land are located within the Multi -Use Corridor. Approximately 26.7 acres, or 5170, of this property is developed commercially. Almost all of this development is on properties which front directly onto P.C.H. About 4470 of the MUC is, developed residentially, containing 598 dwelling units. These areas are primarily located behind commercially developed frontage lots and are often part of established residential neighborhoods which extend much deeper to the east and west. The remaining 570 of the MUC is currently vacant. A table of information containing the distribution of land uses within the MUC by block and sub -area is included in the appendix. MULTI -USE CORRIDOR DESIGNATION The Multi -Use Corridor is a land use designation that has been in effect since the City of Hermosa Beach Land Use Element was adopted in 1966. The Multi -Use Corridor is defined in the General Plan as follows: The purpose of the land use category is to provide additional depth for development, and to allow various types of land use. It would include apartments, shops, stores, restaurants, office buildings, service stations, auto dealers, specialty shops, bowling alleys, and other similar activities. However, strict standards of development, including landscaping, setback, parking, architectural design, sign controls and street appearance would be enforced. Originally, the MUC was regarded as a means of dealing with an area that, while primarily commercial, had a mix of retail, service, and low and high density residential uses. The depth of the MUC, established at about 300 feet, was thought of as a way to allocate enough land for on-site parking and to encourage the turnover of existing residences, and small retail and service uses to larger scale commercial developments. It recognized the continuing problem of traffic, parking, and access which seemed to be a deterrent to commercial success along the Highway. As part of "mixed-use" concept the MUC designation permits existing uses, particularly residential, to continue until such time that market conditions warrant a transition to commercial development. This transition of these marginal areas was further encouraged by the designation of C -potential zoning to certain properties which were vacant or residential and were perceived to have commercial development potential. Recently, the transition of C -potential properties to commercial uses has not happened as - 3 - (73) frequently as was perhaps envisioned. In fact, many of the properties have been developed with residential uses and are currently part of established residential neighborhoods. Since 1979, the Mult-Use Corridor has been the subject of several discussions aimed at determining whether or not this land use designation adequately represents the City's goals and policies regarding commercial and residential development along P.C.H. Issues discussed pertaining to the future development of the Corridor included the following: To what depth should commercial. extend? Is residential use a desirable Multiple Use Corridor? Are development standards in placewhich would ensure quality commercial development and buffering of adjacent residential uses?, if not, what should they be? After considerable research and public input it was determined in 1985 that the Multi -Use Corridor should be redefined to more clearly indicate a commitment to commercial development. More recently, however, it has become apparent that this commitment to commercial development must be moderated to include a greater sensitivity towards existing abutting residential areas threatened by the encroachment of expanded commercial development. It is staff's position that the first step toward solving the problem is to take the following sequence of actions regarding the General Plan: development be allowed to long-term use within the 1) Clearly define the maximum depth of commercial development acceptable to the City. 2) Designate existing residential areas outside the commercially defined area as Residential on the General Plan Map. 3) Designate the commercially defined area as Commercial Corridor on the General Plan Map, Amend the Land Use Element of the General Plan to establish a definition, and statement of development objectives for this Commercial Corridor. The remaining actions to be taken in order to implement the above changes in the General Plan are as follows: 4) Amend the zoning ordinance for the residential areas outside the commercially defined area from MUC to the adjacent residential zoning designation. 4 5) Amend the zoning ordinance to create Specific Plan Areas within the corridor (for example, one for the south portion and another for the north portion) to establish standards and review procedures for commercial development within the. corridor. PROPOSED BOUNDARY In order to determine the appropriate• depth for the boundary of the Commercial Corridor, a land use inventory and analysis was conducted•for the entire area of the MUC. The inventory was conducted to generate information regarding existing land uses, depth of existing commercial development, existing zoning, ownership, age of original construction, condition of the property, topography, and adjacent land uses. The information was compiled on a lot by lot basis, as shown in Part II of this report, and was evaluated on a block by block basis. The following criteria were used towards making a final determination on the recommended location for the boundary line for each block 1. The lots designated for commercial development should be of an adequate size and shape to accomodate commercial development of a high quality. 2. The lots designated for commercial development should contain enough area and have adequate features to allow for setbacks and screening/buffering of• potential commercial uses from existing residential uses. 3. The depth of potential future commercial development should generally extend a minimum of 100 feet to a maximum of 300 feet from P.C.H. 4. Areas designated for commercial development should have available access from P.C.H. 5. Housing in good condition should not be designated for commercial development whenever possible. 6. Commercial encroachment into residential neighborhoods should be minimized. 7. Individual property ownerships should not be divided by commercial and residential land use designations. 8. The existing topography should allow for commercial development that will not significantly impact scenic views or require excessive grading. 9. The depth of the commercial area should be consistent across streets wherever possible. 5 (7s) The above criteria were used in making a judgement on the recommended location of the Commercial Corridor boundary line. A block by block analysis and recommendation is contained in the Part II of this Report. For purposes of the analysis the MUC was divided into four sub -areas: Southeast (south city boundary to 8th street, east side of P.C.H.); Northeast (14th Street to 24th Street,. east side of P.C.H.); Northwest (24th Street to Pier Avenue, west side of P.C.H.) and Southwest (8th Street to south city boundary west side of P.C.H.). The boundary recommendation is depicted Exhibit "A". A recommendation for the amended General Plan designation for the residential area outside the boundary is also included in the block by block description contained in Part II. In all cases the recommended change is from the MUC designation to a designation.consistent with. the adjacent residential designation. Locating the Commercial Corridor boundary as recommended in Exhibit "A," and described in Part II, would result in the redesignation of approximately 20.4 acres from Multi -Use Corridor to a residential designation, and the redesignation of the remaining 32.2 acres from MUC to Commercial Corridor. Although this would reduce the area of maximum commercial development allowed under the General Plan from 52.6 acres to 32.2 acres it would still allow for a potential increase in commercially developed acreage of 21 percent over the current amount of 26.7 acres. PROPOSED LAND USE ELEMENT POLICY CHANGES In order to convey a clear commitment to commercial development in the commercially defined area along P.C.H. the land use category of "Multi -Use Corridor" should be replaced by the category of "Commercial Corridor," defined as follows The purpose of the Land Use Category is to clearly define the limits of the depth for commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway and prohibit the development of new residential uses within this area. Existing residential uses within the corridor are expressly allowed, however, the transition of these uses to commercial usage is highly desirable. This category allows various types of commercial land uses including retail, service, and office uses. Automotive related commercial uses would be allowed by conditional use permit only. To ensure that commercial development will be compatible with existing nearby residential uses standards for building height, parking and access, setbacks, and landscaping will be implemented through Specific Plan Area designations. The Multi -Use Corridor designation should be deleted from the General Plan Map and replaced with the Commercial Corridor designation. 6 IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CHANGES IN THE LAND USE ELEMENT Proposed zone changes for the areas within and outside of the proposed Commercial Corridor: Theresidential areas behind the boundaries of the established commercial corridor should be changed to the zoning classification of the adjacent residential neighborhood, and the C -Potential classification should be eliminated. The areas should be rezoned to R-1, R -2B, R-2, and R-3, whichever classification is consistent with the adjacent residential classification. For the area within the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Areas (SPA) the creation of specific plan areas would provide clearly defined policies, objectives, and development standards specifically tailored to areas of the corridor. The Specific Plan would be adopted by ordinance and would amend the Zoning Ordinance. The SPA would be based on the general policy statements included in this General Plan amendment. RECOMMENDED POLICIES FOR THE SPECIFIC PLAN AREA ZONES The current zoning ordinance has only a limited set of regulations on commercial development in the C-3 zone. It controls the types of uses, the amount of parking provided and the layout of parking areas, building heights, and setback/buffering adjacent to residential areas. There are currently no requirements for setbacks from the street, landscaping, traffic studies and traffic improvements, the general layout of buildings, or the appearance. Additionally, there is no provision for the review of commercial development proposals. Therefore, if a proposed development meets the basic zoning requirements and the building code, it can obtain approval. Although this may be an acceptable practice for smaller commercial projects, it is not acceptable for the larger projects to be expected along Pacific Coast Highway. Development standards and plan review procedures should be established for the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Areas. The following are basic policy statements for the Specific Plan Areas. More detailed development standards will be developed based on the following policies: 1) Existing residential uses are permitted to continue indefinitely, and shall be allowed a limited amount of improvement and expansion as long as the residential density does not increase. 7 (7?) 1 2) Residentially developed and vacant property can only be used for commercial purposes if the property fronts on Pacific Coast Highway or is part of an assemblage of properties containing a commercial project which fronts on Pacific Coast Highway. 3) New residential projects shall be prohibited, except on vacant parcels not fronting on Pacific Coast Highway, and not connected by ownership to lots fronting on Pacific Coast Highway. Any proposed residential projects must be approved by the Planning Commission. 4) Height limits and the method of measurement shall be established which will minimize impacts of commercial development on scenic views and on the privacy of adjacent residences. 5) Landscaping requirements shall be established to improve the attractiveness of development along Pacific Coast Highway and to buffer interfacing or abutting residential development. 6) Traffic impact studies shall be required for projects which will cause significant traffic impacts and these studies shall include proposed measures to mitigate the impacts. 7) All commercial projects shall require staff review to ensure compliance with the standards and policies of the Specific Plan Area, and significant projects shall require Planning Commission review and approval, subject to City Council Appeal. 8) A list of permitted uses shall be established which permits a broad range of commercial and office related uses with emphasis given to uses which have the highest benefit to the community. 9) More than one SPA zone may be created for areas of the corridor based on the sub -area's unique features. 10) Orientation of all commercial development should be toward P.C.H. and not toward local residential streets. 11) Physical setbacks, and architectural treatment shall be provided where commercial and residential development abut, or interface. 12) Assembled lots proposed for commercial development shall be • merged as a condition of development GENERAL COMMERCIAL DESIGNATED AREAS ALONG P.C.H. In consideration of the proposed designation of a portion of the Pacific Coast Highway corridor to Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Area the question of whether or not to change the 6 • designation of the remaining portion of P.C.H. needs to be addressed. The remaining commercial areas along the corridor are currently designated General Commercial on the General Plan Map, and are zoned C-3. Some of the residential areas behind the commercial uses still maintain a C -Potential zoning classification. Continuing the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Area designation to these commercial areas to further ensure quality commercial development and to more clearly define the depth of commercial development would be a logical extension of the proposed General Plan Amendments noted above. Staff has .not undertaken a detailed study of these areas at this time because of the priority of addressing the areas currently under moratorium. Once the land use designations and policies regarding the Multi -Use Corridor are resolved staff could direct its efforts towards similar proposals for the remaining portion of the corridor.

The data obtained for each parcel includes: size of the lot; the approximate date of original construction (obtained from city building records); the general condition of the structure and property (obtained from field observation); the distance of the lot from P.C.H.; the distance of the lot from existing commmercial development; a description of adjacent uses; the degree of slope (obtained from field observation); the zoning; and whether or not the use is conforming. Although not always mentioned in the narrative this information was utilized in making the recommendation for the location of the commercial corridor boundary line. The analysis of the blocks is presented in the sequence of an automobile travelling in the right lane observing to his right from south to north and returning north to south along P.C.H.. The sequence goes from south to north along the east side of P.C.H. and north to south along the west side of P.C.H.

The C-3 zoning boundary is consistent with the MUC boundary and recognizes the beginning of established residential uses up the slope, which are designated for High Density residential on the General Plan Map and zoned R-P(C) and R -P. In recognition of the existing development it would not seem appropriate to extend the Commercial designation any deeper. The appropriateness of the R -P designation for the residential properties to the east should be reconsidered at a later date.

EXISTING ZONING BOUNDARY PROPOSED COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR/SPA BOUNDARY !4 C84-) 1ST STREET TO 2ND STREET (East Side) FRONTAGE: 255 feet DEPTH OF.MUC: 260 feet, 245 feet DEPTH OF C-3 ZONING: 220 feet and 125 feet Existing development along the north side of 1st street consists of the General Telephone Exchange building and parking area which extends a total of 500 feet deep along 1st Street (260 feet of which falls within the MUC). The property is zoned C-3 for a depth of about 220 feet, zoned R-P(C) from a depth of 220 feet to 260 feet, zoned C-3 again from a depth of 260 feet to 300 feet, and zoned R -P for the remainder. The reason for this patchwork zoning is unclear. Development along the south side of 2nd Street consists of "O'Kells" furniture store and the "Pitcher House" occupying a building site, zoned C-3, which extends to a depth of 125 feet. Behind these commercial uses along 2nd street are two older residences in "poor" and "fair" condition on property zoned R -1(C). Beyond the two residences the next two lots are part of the General Telephone parking lot, zoned C-3 and R -P respectively. Again, there is not a good explanation for this patchwork zoning. Although the existing MUC boundary follows lot lines it splits the GTE parking lot and it is not in a logical location. Except for the two older houses mentioned above the uses within the MUC are commercial. Given this situation staff feels there are two options for the location of the commercial corridor boundary, as follows: 1) Along the boundary of the GTE Parking lot (500 feet deep on the north side of 1st Street and 285 feet deep on the south side of 2nd Street), or, 2) Along the current C-3 zoning line (240 feet deep approximately at rear of GTE building along the NS of 1st street, and 125 feet along the SS of 2nd Street to exclude the existing residential uses). The benefits of the first option are two -fold: it would recognize the easterly boundary of existing commercially related land uses, and would provide for potential commercial expansion along the south side of 2nd Street where the two older houses at 830 and 838 are located (these properties would potentially provide the parking area needed to convert or expand the existing commercial uses at 134 and 142 P.C.H. and if developed would be subject to standards of the Commercial Corridor SPA requiring buffering from the residential uses). However, it would be inconsistent with the commercial depths to both the south of 1st Street and to the north of 2nd Street. The second option would provide for greater consistency across streets, but would not be conducive towards the turnover, improvement, or expansion of commercial uses on the south side of 2nd street. Also the SPA standards should mitigate, i.e. buffer, the problems of commercial interfacing with residential. l5 (SS) RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary in accordance with the first option noted above along the easterly boundary of the existing GTE parking lot at a depth of 500 feet along the north side of 1st Street and a depth of 285 feet on the south side of 2nd Street. • SE St. Address Lot 1st St.- 2nd St. Size Use Approx.

Behind the commercial uses are newer single-family homes, built since 1973, in mostly good condition, which are a part of a single-family neighborhood which continues up the slope to the east. These homes are on property zoned R -1(C) to the depth of the MUC (about 250 feet) while beyond the MUC boundary the zoning is R-1. The depths of the commercial uses are not particularly consistent with each other, or with the depths across the streets to the north and south. However, for the purposes of recognizing the stable nature of the existing residential neighborhoods, staff feels that the commercial corridor boundary should be consistent with the existing depth of commercial uses and the existing C-3 zoning boundary.

Exclusive Cars," "Creative Moter Designs," and "Auto Systems"), zoned C-3 to a depth of 125 feet. The property is under the same ownership. From this depth of 125 feet to the MUC boundary are 5 single-family homes on 25 -foot wide lots zoned R -1(C). These homes are of various ages and in fair condition, and are part of an established residential street which extends further to the east. Because of the conditon of the residential neighborhood and the 50 -foot commercial depth across 3rd street, the commercial corridor boundary for this half of the block should not be located any deeper than the existing C -3/R -1(C) boundary (125 feet). At the south corner of 4th street "Rosa's" Restaurant", a ticket outlet and a video arcade extend to a depth of 70 feet. Behind these businesses on property under the same ownership at 820 4th ' Street, extending to a depth of 112 feet, is an old nonconforming single-family home. The C-3 zoning boundary is at a depth of 100 feet, thereby splitting the residential parcel. Behind this home, within the R -1(C) zone, are three older residential structures (probably built before the 1930's) in poor to fair condition. The MUC is bounded by Ocean View Avenue at a depth of 250 feet. Given that the condition of the residential structures is not particularly good, and that Ocean View Avenue would provide somewhat of a buffer from possible commercial uses, locating the commercial boundary at the current depth of the MUC would perhaps meet the criteria for establishment of the commmercial boundary line. The other side of 4th street is in a similar situation (although the block is "broken" by an alley at a depth of 112 feet) and could also be considered for a commercial designation to the depth of Ocean View Avenue. However, staff feels that to be consistent with the depth of existing commercial development across the street, and to protect the character of an existing R-1 neighborhood, that the depth should stop at the alley (a depth of 112 feet). The commmercial designation would therefore include the entire property at 820 4th street which contains the old house which is connected by ownership to the frontage commercial property. If the option of extending the corridor to Ocean View Avenue is desirable, a policy concerning adequate buffering at the commercial and residential interface must be addressed. ZO (RG) RECOMMENDATION • Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 125 feet for the south half of the block, coterminous with the C-3 zoning boundary, and at a depth of 112 feet for the north half of the block. Amend the General Plan Map for the residential area beyond the Corridor from MUC to LD Residential. Alternative: Extend the Commercial Corridor designation to the depth of Ocean Avenue and develop a policy for buffers at the commercial and residential interface. 11 No o o SE • Approx. Dist. Dist.

Commercial development consists of an older small commercial center containing a liquor store and laundry at the south end, a series of commercial buldings containing a mix of repair and service businesses, and a newer small commercial center containing restaurants and a 7-11 convenience store at the north end. These properties are zoned C-3 to the depth of the alley. Additionally, there is a public parking area along the east side of the alley, zoned C-3, to a depth of an additional 20 feet. Behind the alley and up a moderate slope the residential development, zoned R -1(C), consists of mostly older single-family homes in fair condition. Although the entire area within the MUC could conceivably be developed commercially in a quality manner, with Ocean View Avenue serving as a "buffer" from residential uses, it is staff's' judgement that this should not be encouraged. The depth would not be consistent with commercial depths to the north and south, and commercial uses would significanly change the character of the Ocean View Avenue residential neighborhood which is currently in fair condition. Also, it does not seem realistic that all the lots along Ocean Avenue would be assembled by the commercial property owners to the west and, as a result, some of the lots could be commercial while others remain residential. This would definitely not be good planning. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary coterminous with the existing C-3 zoning boundary along the alley.

Behind this, along the north side of 5th street is a 10 unit apartment building on R-3 zoned property. The remaining frontage of P.C.H. contains a series of older commercial buildings containing a mix of service and retail uses (going northward: "Adam and Eve Clothing," "Fantasy Adult Arcade," and "Chamberlin Motor Sports"). The depth of the commercial development is about 80 feet. Behind the commercial uses, which are not currently in good condition, within the C-3 zone and on the same property are 4 older single-family homes in generally poor condition (three of which are accessed from P.C.H.) to a depth of 125 feet. On the next lot (822 6th Street) wihin the R -2(C) zone is an old single family home, also in poor condition. Beyond this point are 3 single family homes which front on Gravely Court, in the R -2(C) zone, all in fair. condition. The current 160 foot depth of the C-3 zoning on the north side of 5th Street seems appropriate as it separates the commercial use from the new 10 -unit apartment which is in good condition. However, in the northern portion of the block the current C-3 boundary, at a depth of only 125 feet, could be extended. Extending the commercial depth to 160 feet to include the 822 6th street (as noted above in poor condition) would appear to be the appropriate location as it would allow commercial expansion at a greater depth which may be an incentive to the turnover and improvement of the existing commercial and residential uses. The residential area to be included, as noted above, contains older homes which do not appear to be in good condition. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 160 feet for the entire block.

(Going northward: "Trend Imports," "JAMA,".a car wash, an art gallery/frame shop, "Ocean Ocean" surf shop, and "Rubber Stamps"). Behind the rubber stamps shop, within the C-3 zone, is an older existing single family home. The residential development located behind the frontage lots, up the moderate slope, is of various ages and types (including two new apartment buildings of 4 and 6 units which are currently nonconforming as to density) in generally fair condition. The residential properties are zoned R -2(C), and are part of a residential neighborhood which continues up the slope, zoned R -2B. Given the established residential character of the neighborhood up the slope, and that the depths of commercial development to the south and north are similar, it appears that the depth of the commercially developed frontage lots should be the extent of the commercial designation (120 feet). This would include the house at 814 7th street, which is located on the commercially developed frontage property. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at the rear of the frontage lots, coterminous with the existing C-3 zoning boundary, at a depth of 120 feet.

Behind these uses and up the steep slope are single family units on the north side of 14th Street, and one and two family uses on the south side of 15th Street, zoned R-2. The residential units are a mix of older and newer structures in fair to good condition. The residential lot immediately behind "Folded Wings," at°823 14th Street, is under the same ownership as "Folded Wings•." The steep slope presents a natural barrier to significantly deeper commercial expansion. The current depth of commercial development, which is recognized by the C-3 zoning, is consistent with the depths across 14th Street to the south and across 15th Street to the north. However, the depth of the "Texaco" service station is 20 feet deeper than "Folded Wings". Since the lot at 823 14th Street is under the same ownership as the frontage parcel, and is only 35 feet wide (going to a depth of 141 feet) • it could logically be included in the Commercial Corridor to allow for expansion of the "Folded Wings" business. It does not appear that any further commercial encroachment into the existing residential neighborhoods should be encouraged. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial/SPA boundary at a depth of 141 feet along the north side of 14th Street to include 823 14th Street and at the existing C -3/R-2 boundary at a depth of 126 feet along the south side of 15th Street.

The north side of 15th Street to 135 feet north of the street, and 2.) The South Side of 16th Street covering the remaining area of the block (to 204 feet south of 16th Street) 1. North Side of 15th Street to 135 feet north of the street: Existing development includes a Medical Office building (1500 P.C.H.) zoned C-3, with a depth of 42 feet at the north corner of 15th Street and a vacant parcel to its north. Behind this office along the north side of 15th Street, development includes a non -conforming duplex, in the R -1(C) zone, at a depth of 42-84 feet; a vacant parcel also within the R -1(C) zone; and a single family, two family, and two 3 -unit condominiums (under construction), zoned R-2, going eastward up the increasingly steep slope. Across 15th Street the commercial depth is 126 feet. Residential uses start from this depth on the fourth lot up the slope. Making the depth the same on the north side of the street would provide a logical and consistent commercial/residential boundary on 15th Street. Commercial development any deeper than 126 feet is restricted by the increasingly steep slope, and existing residential uses beginning at 126 feet are in generally good condition. The R-1(C)/R-2 zoning boundary is currently at the 126 foot depth. The use of the parcels currently zoned R -1(C) at a depth of 42-126 feet for new residential counstruction does not seem appropriate. Conversely, these properties appear to be appropriate for commercial development if assembled with adjacent properties which front onto P.C.H. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA Boundary at the 126 foot depth coterminous with the R-1(C)/R-2 zoning boundary. Amend the LUP designation for the area east of the 126 foot depth from MUC to MD Residential. • 2. South side of 16th Street to 204 feet south: Existing land use consists of a large vacant parcel (0.45 acres), zoned C-3 and R-1, to a depth of 145 feet and the Coast Pet Clinic, zoned C-3 to a depth of 150 feet. Behind the vacant parcel, up the slope, and along the south side of 15th Place are three 3 -unit apartments zoned R-2, and behind the Pet Clinic are three one and two family homes. These residential structures, build within the last thirty years, are in fair to good condition. The slope again presents a natural barrier to commercial expansion deeper than the frontage lots. Given that the frontage lots are 145 feet and 150 feet, it would seem appropriate to locate the commercial boundary at the back of these lots. The current R-1 zoning located in the back 45.feet of the vacant parcel is not appropriate, and any residential uses that were located there have been demolished. Establishment of the boundary at the 145 and 150 depths would recognize existing development and allow for commercial development of high quality on the vacant lot, and would be somewhat consistent with the recommended 126 feet depth to the south. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at the back of the vacant parcels (145 feet) and behind the Coast Pet Clinic Parcel (150) feet. Amend the LUP designation for the residential area located behind the boundary line along the south side of 16th Street from MUC to LD residential, and the lots south of 15th Place to ND residential. 34- 004) • ., NE Approx.

I would like to be added to your mailing list.

We physically moved in and have been residents since May 15th, 1988. Last night my neighbor at 724 24th handed me a copy of another notice from you regarding the City Council meeting scheduled for April 25th. I did not receive any copy addressed to 720 24th Street.

Dear Sirs: We are responding to the Public Notice sent to one of our neighbors regarding the referenced General Plan Amendment. We have no problem with the commercial zoning of the lots on PCH, but are opposed to extending the commercial zoning to the R-1 and R-2 lots in our neighborhood. Specifically, we are opposed to the City converting the lots east of and including 739 21st Street from residential to commercial zoning. The result would be to put commercial development, literally, in our own back yards, thereby detracting from our views and reducing our property values. We plan to attend the March 21st Public Hearing and add our dissenting voices to those of our neighbors.

Kainz 819 Eighteenth Street Hermosa 3each, California 90254 MAR 2 01989 We object to the proposed rezoning of the Multiple Use Corridor to Commercial for the following reasons: 1. The east side of Pacific Coast Highway from 18th to 21st Streets has a long history of residential use. Changing the character of the neighborhood is not the will of the homeowners and residents. 2. The area from 18th to 21st Street is hilly and not suitable for commercial development. 3. The view lots should be preserved for residential use. L. Commercial property in the area has a long history of lying vacant. There is no need to add to the inventory glut of unused commercial development. As homeowners and longtime residents of the affected area we oppose the proposed rezoning to commercial.

There is nothing to support the conclusions regarding the requirements of commercial development in Hermosa Beach or elsewhere. The type of commercial use is not suggested, and the conclusion appears to be pure.hypothesis. The report makes no mention of the type of commercial use anticipated for the commercially zoned areas. Without this informa- tion, any calculations of parking requirements, pedestrian traffic, additional automobile traffic, crime, noise polution, litter, or depth requirements are speculative. A determination that commercial development is desirable cannot be supported without this data. Because property along Pacific Coast Highway already has high value as residential property, a simple calculation indicates that a small store could cost $1 million in land and building alone. In order to justify the expense, a high rate of customer traffic would be required. The higher the expense of the building, the higher the required sales per square foot to make the business profitable. ,The higher the sales per square foot, the greater the potential for problems with traffic, parking, noise, litter, etc. This cost consideration has not been addressed to determine if any commercial development in this area is feasible. It may well be that the only feasible commercial uses are entirely unacceptable to the community, such as high rise office buildings. The potential view blockage through commercial use is of tremendous concern to residents East of PCH. The higher height limit for structures in a commercial zone is a major reason for community opposition to commercial zoning. The report is based on speculation about potential commercial uses of many properties in the future. If the recommendation of the department must be based upon the future, then the appropriate response would be to wait until future circumstances become clear. Sincerely, Mary M. Hanson a,/i r, n 2 .1 1989 Michael Schubach, Planning Director Hermosa Beach Planning Department 1315 Valley Dr. Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 841 Nineteenth St. Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 March 19, 1989 2-1 1988 Re: Rezoning in the Multi -Use Corridor Dear Mr. Schubach and the Department, I wish to express my objections to the proposed rezoning of the residential areas of Pacific Coast Highway. Some of your recommendations are not supported by the findings in your report. Some of your findings are not supported by the evidence. The report bases its recommendation on the unsupported premise that transition of residential uses within the corridor to commercial use is "highly desirable." No evidence whatsoever is provided•to support this conclusion. Many aspects of the immediate environment were ignored in reaching the conclusion that commercial use would be highly desirable. In the area of 16th Street to 21st Street, the streets and alleys are narrow and winding, with limited parking and few sidewalks. Commercial use of this area, even with PCH frontage, seems highly inappropriate. The current use in this area is 100% residential. Total transition to commercial seems highly unlikely. Commercial use would generate more traffic, more parking demand, more vehicle activity, more pedestrian activity, more litter, more noise, and more crime, and the introduced combination of residential and commercial in currently residential areas would seem certain to bring conflicts. The report makes no mention of these impacts. There is currently no excess parking available in this residential portion of Pacific Coast Highway. In addition, an increase in pedestrian traffic in areas without sidewalks increases the situation where pedestrians share the road with automobiles. It is difficult for pedestrians to cross Pacific Coast Highway now. With increased commercial use, an increase in pedestrian traffic, as well as an increase in the number of automobiles turning across traffic or slowing to make right hand turns would make Pacific Coast Highway a high-speed obstacle course. Dr. Brian Carrico March 21, 1989 AMP 21 1989 ENVIRONMENT PROPOSAL - TREE PLANTING ON P.C.H. This proposal is based on similar program used in the city of Santa Monica - along Lincoln Blvd* Tree Species: Trystanias or Liquid Amber Placement Cost Assesment :40' apart 30' from corner. :Wells are cut 3' x 3' next to curb. :Exact placement is discussed with store owner to avoid sign interference (should be placed head on) :15 gallon tree $40.00 apiece :Cost of well cutting 30.00 each : Tree stake, etc. 10.00 Aprox $80.00 total per tree. Cost about $3.00 per foot. So a 50' frontage would cost business owner $150.00. Advantages Contributes to street beautification. Trees absorb noise pollution which caused a decrease in stress. Trees decrease air pollution by absorbing CO2 and CO and filtering other pollutants. Care and Maintenance Watering is needed for only the first 6 months. (If planted in the fall). Then tree roots are deep enough to reach water table. Watering can be done by a water or fire truck. Trees need to be pruned every 3 years, to control the shape of the tree.

The heaviest foot traffic on 21st Street is children going back and forth from their homes to schools and the beach. This is the only access street between Pier and Gould with a signal at PCH. Additional commercial development here would undoubtedly increase vehicle traffic on 21st Street and thus be dangerous for the children. 4. 21st Street is too narrow to accommodate the additional traffic that would be generated by a large commercial development on these lots.' 5. Rezoning the additional two lots to commercial would encourage the construction of another huge commercial project. Hermosa Beach does not need another huge development. 6. There is a great deal of unutilized or underutilized commercial property in Hermosa Beach. That should be developed before proposing to invade residential areas. 7. We already have parking overflow from the commercial establishments on PCH. We do not need any more. 8. The depth of the commercial property between 24th Street and 24th Place is limited to 140 feet and 90 feet on the north and south halves, respectively. There is absolutely no reason to extend the commercial area in the very next block, which is also a single family residential area, to 290 or even 220 feet. The 115 foot depth of the PCH lots is plenty. At worst, the addition of the first lot on 21st Street would make a 150 foot depth which would be more than adequate for any reasonable commercial development of this property. In the interests of uniformity, the commercial development should be limited to a depth similar to that in the next block north. 9. There is a high likelihood that the homes west of the vacant R-1 lots on 21 Street will be upgraded if the entire street is left residential. It seems more likely that they will not if there is a huge commercial development on half of the block. 10. It would appear that the proposed changes would only benefit the present property owners of the lots in question. They would get their money from the developers of the commercial property. They would go away, leaving the adjacent residential property owners to suffer the consequences. This is not good for the city or its residents.

We are specifically concerned with the area described as 24th Street to 21st Street (West of PCH). We are all residents of the primarily single family residential neighborhood adjacent to the area proposed to be changed to the Commercial Corridor zone. Only the lots facing on PCH should be zoned commercial. The five lots facing on 21st Street should remain residential. As indicated in the Planning Commission report, the conditional rezoning of the first three lots on 21st Street (numbered 20,21 & 22 on the attached map) has expired. They should revert to R-1 and remain R-1. Under no circumstances should the next two lots (numbered 23 and 24) be rezoned from R-1 to commercial. Some of our reasons are as follows: 1. All of the lots on 24th Street which back up to the lots in question, have recently been upgraded with new homes. There is also a new home under construction on the lot immediately west of the lots in question. It does not make sense to place a large commercial development directly adjacent to these single family homes. 2. Expanding the commercial zone here would destroy the views of at least 8 homes -- the five houses north of the lots and the 3 apartments. Much of the value of these homes is in the views. We will lose that value and enjoyment. • I• 24THST. + 7LO 724 72u 7Aa 7.27z. 74-o 92 .92 . 23° i 9 µfRmoSA V IFw TRH( . Ilj r5 rn.

There is also a new home under construction on the lot immediately west of the lots in question. It does not make sense to place a large commercial development directly adjacent to these single family homes. 2. Expanding the commercial zone here would destroy the views of at least 8 homes -- the five houses north of the lots and the 3 apartments. Much of the value of these homes is in the views. We will lose that value and enjoyment. �moSA i- .n.3. 10-v9 IYIJ b 1,1d ' CoNDoMIn1tuN1 1-Rfic-i WO. 3VZOO ... 01.1 rA • 6. coo-, :1 og tog ®[I 24 ty MONTMAR/eora E 641 48. 9-135 Wi biA lot. .3s 24TH 71." 724 711.< 3a 7.2)/.. 740 • ST. ft • 9e . 54 Z�c149 -� .i. /41 E D D "1..=? -1 21ST COIMIERCIAL SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL TWO-FAMILY RESIDEN'iIAL MULTI -FAMILY RESIDENTIAL (three or nate unit.)

Granted, there are apartment buildings across the street from the lots in question, but the lots would still be wonderful building sites for new homes. They would have terrific views and the lots are deep enough to allow for substantial setbacks and yards. We need to retain nice residential lots like these, not destroy them. 12. The slope on 21st Street is still substantial enough that an extraordinary amount of grading would be required if this were made into one large commercial development. That is not in the best interests of the community or a developer. 13. Hermosa Beach from 21st Street North is a wonderful family, residential neighborhood. Please do not destroy it. 14. Finally, we do not want these five lots on 21st Street zoned commercial. We especially do not want the most westerly 2 lots changed from R-1 to commercial. Please do not do it. It would dramatically reduce the value of our properties and diminish the pleasure of living here. We love our neighborhood and want it to remain a nice residential area. Your consideration is appreciated. jj NAME �fi G f�.,f're clu t/lL/ Cs"-Xac G1, r- ���,�,, ��--�-: . • 7 _ ADDRESS 73; ,.:2‘•//-43 i / f,rn < 7,- `(c�5Y, lr '; y t7 .s7 6 c/c)as / _,y1 1‘ Q k.� n ,-k I.> ? Vit, 7 • The heaviest foot traffic on 21st Street is children going back and forth from their homes to schools and the beach. Thi$ is the only access street between Pier and Gould with a signal at PCH. Additional commercial development here would undoubtedly increase vehicle traffic on 21st Street and thus be dangerous for the children. 4. 21st Street is too narrow to accommodate the additional traffic that would be generated by a large commercial development on these lots.' 5. Rezoning the additional two lots to commercial would encourage the construction of another huge commercial project. Hermosa Beach does not need another huge development. S. There is a great deal of unutilized or underutilized commercial property in Hermosa Beach. That should be developed before proposing to invade residential areas. 7. We already have parking overflow from the commercial establishments on PCH. We do not need any more. 9. The depth of the commercial property between 24th Street and 24th Place is limited to 140 feet and 90 feet on the north and south halves, respectively. There is absolutely no reason to extend the commercial area in the very next block, which is also a single family residential area, to 290 or even 220 feet. The 115 foot depth of the PCH lots is plenty. At worst, the addition of the first lot on 21st Street would make a 150 foot depth which would be more than adequate for any reasonable commercial development of this property. In the interests of uniformity, the commercial development should be limited to a depth similar to that in the next block north. 9. There is a high likelihood that the homes west of the vacant R-1 lots on 21 Street will be upgraded if the entire street is left residential. It seems more likely that they will not if there is a huge commercial development on half of the block. 10. It would appear that the proposed changes would only benefit the present property owners of the lots in question. They would get their money from the developers of the commercial property. They would go away, leaving the adjacent residential property owners to suffer the consequences. This is not good for the city or its residents.

We are specifically concerned with the area described as 24th Street to 21st Street (West of PCH). We are all residents of the primarily single family residential neighborhood adjacent to the area proposed to be changed to the Commercial Corridor zone. Only the lots facing on PCH should be zoned commercial. The five lots facing on 21st Street should remain residential. As indicated in the Planning Commission report, the conditional rezoning of the first three lots on 21st Street (numbered 20,21 & 22 on the attached map) has expired. They should revert to R-1 and remain R-1. Under no circumstances should the next two lots (numbered 23 and 24) be rezoned from R-1 to commercial. Some of our reasons are as follows: 1. All of the lots on 24th Street which back up to the lots in question, have recently been upgraded with new homes. There is also a new home under construction on the lot immediately west of the lots in question. It does not make sense to place a large commercial development directly adjacent to these single family homes. 2. Expanding the commercial zone here would destroy the views of at least 8 homes -- the five houses north of the lots and the 3 apartments. Much of the value of these homes is in the views.

Commercial use of the currently residential areas, and increases in commercial use in the areas that currently have commercial uses, is not desirable for this community. Commercial use would generate more traffic, more -parking demand, more vehicle activity, more pedestrian activity, more litter, more noise, and more crime, and the introduced combination of residential and commercial in currently residential areas is not welcome. We also object to potential higher height limits under commercial zoning. This is a residential area and the ocean view is enjoyed by many residents East of Pacific Coast Highway. We are not willing to let our ocean views be blocked to allow the development of unwelcome commercial development.

To Whom it may concern, I would like to take a moment to reiterate our recommendation to the planning commission. • Page 47 of the planning study portrays a map indicating alternatives. Our suggestion & also our desire, is that the Multi Use Corridor, would extend up to Rhodes street, thus including the houses on Borden street within the MUC. Some good reasons for allowing this to happen are: a. We own 3 of the 4 houses on Borden street b. There is currently a block wall running along Rhodes street, thus creating a barrier. c. The elevation on east of Rhodes is higher than the west side, thus creating a natural barrier. d. This would put Borden street right in line, with Hope Chapel to the north, which is already general commercial. I sincerely hope, that our desires, will fit into the city's plan. I appreciate your consideration. Thank you!

This letter is to advise you that we are in complete support of the proposed General Plan Amendments to the Multi Use Corridor referenced above. We think the ordinance will be of great benefit to the City of Hermosa Beach as it will allow a more consistent development along Pacific.Cnast Highway and increase revenues to the City. In addition, we believe it will eventually increase adjacent residential property values as the overall appearances will be improved and uses will not be intermingled on the streets adjacent to Pacific Coast Highway. �;"ly, 7,1716 'times G.

For example, there seems to be a lot of interest in mid-size hotels currently. If all our available areas were so developed, that would eliminate future areas for office or retail complexes, which may be in strong market conditions, say in the 1990s. While there are no other points of concern, I did wish to par- ticularly support the comment on Page 5, number 9, related to compatible street frontages facing each other. Where a boundary between residential andcommercial needs to be adjusted either east or west, it is probably preferable to do that mid -block. Buffers in the back of lots are probably more easily constructed. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss these matters further. 'Kevin B. Northcraft City Manager KBN/ld 0 CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH MEMORANDUM DATE: March 30, 1989 TO: Planning Director Michael Schubach FROM: City Manager Kevin B. Northcraft RE: Comments on draft Multi -Use Corridor study and recommendations rk' 41989 I had an opportunity this morning to do a brief review of the above noted study and wanted to provide my "first review comments". This study very positively takes a complex matter and organizes it well into areas for public policy review. The criteria pro- posed and the organization of the recommendations are commend- able, and I concur generally with them. There are just a few areas over which I have some concerns, and they may be caused by just a different interpretation than the one intended. My con- cerns are, as follows: 1) Page 7, number 1 -- it would seem preferable for nonconform- ing.uses to use the City-wide nonconforming provisions, rather than establish any different for the commercial SPA area. 2 Page 8, number 2 -- I think this provision is too restric- tive on commercial uses. Under this policy, the City public parking lot between 2nd and 3rd Streets would appear to be in violation. The ownership of the land does not extend to PCH. 3) Page 8, number 3 -- This proposed policy seems to allow new nonconforming construction, and I think we would want to prohibit this. Again, I think the City-wide provisions on nonconforming use should apply in this area as well. 4) Page 5, number 1 -- The study refers to "commercial develop- ment of high quality", but does not make any reference to studies showing depths needed for economic vitality of dif- ferent types of high quality development. For example, do industry experts recommend mid-size hotels have a certain depth from an arterial street? Without this information, we may be unknowingly deciding our future commercial uses by setting their depths now. 5. I also thought the study was to look at the City's balance of different types of commercial uses along the corridor. It would seem the design of the specific plan area could promote or discourage different types of uses so that we maintain a balanced commercial district and not one that is unbalanced simply by a market demand over a five to telik,ar• established for the R-2 standards in this neighborhood. If rezoned, it would be the first time multi -family dwelling lots will be downzoned without a mandate from the voters. He said that no guidelines have been established. He felt that the Commission should address the issue of multi -unit residential dwellings in the R-2 area. He felt that the zoning should be left as it currently is. He said that R-213. zoning will not affect the views of those set back further on the block. He said that the changes which would take place with commercial is a good reason to leave the zoning as is. He concluded by stating that he favors the idea of trees along Pacific Coast Highway. Public Hearing closed at 9:56 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. • Chmn. Peirce favored continuing this matter to the next * meeting so that additional information can be obtained. He noted that this is a very large document. If continued, each specific area can be discussed at the next meeting.. Comm. Ingell agreed that the matter should be continued because of the large size of the document. He also noted that many people did not receive noticing. He further noted that several people favored readjusting the line as shown on the maps. Chmn. Peirce stated that the City must decide whether it wants additional commercial; the only way to obtain more commercial is to rezone some of the R properties. He said that if the lots are actually counted, there are not that many. He said that the east side of the highway between 17th and 21st Street is mostly residential, and a rezone would definitely change the character of the area. Mr. Lough explained that general plan amendments occur four times per year. He noted that there are several other general plan amendments at this time. He cautioned against breaking up the amendments too much because the City Council could get them at various times, and then there could be two general plan amendments instead of just the one. He also discussed the noticing, stating that the legal requirement was only to notice in the "Easy Reader" because more than 1000 parcels were involved. He stated that the notices sent out by staff were done merely as a courtesy to those in the commercial corridor, not as a legal requirement. He therefore saw no legal concerns over the noticing. Comm. Edwards said it was made quite clear that people living in residential areas do not want commercial zoning in their neighborhood. He continued by giving background information on the moratorium. Comm. Ketz stated that, other than the area between 17th and 21st Streets, the staff proposal will protect residential areas from further encroachment of commercial use. She had concern over the area between 17th and 21st Street, since both sides of the streets appear to be residential. She felt this area should be studied further. She agreed that the hearing should be continued so that other areas can be addressed. Comm. Rue stated that the staff report was excellent. He questioned whether the entire commercial corridor can be addressed at the next hearing, stating that he would favor such a discussion. Public Hearing reopened by Chmn. Peirce. MOTION by Chmn. Peirce, seconded by Comm. Ingell, to continue this matter to the next meeting of the Planning Commission to be held April 4, 1989. No objections; so ordered. P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 Mr. Longacre said that the people in the audience should not give credence to the document prepared by the staff; he said the document has no legitimate credence, because no good hearing was ever held to discuss whether this area should even be commercial. Mr. Longacre said that the mayor does not even understand why the moratorium is in place. He said a myth in the City is that more commercial is necessary; when actually less commercial is necessary. He said that the commercial needs to be refined. He said this is government at its worst: • Mary Hanson, 841 19th Street, discussed Pages 41, 42, 43, and 44. She stated that citizens in this area are very opposed to commercial because the area is mainly residential. She stated that it is being proposed to introduce a commercial area into an area which is totally residential. With a commercial area comes the attendant problems of traffic, parking, crime, car accidents, litter, noise, and congestion. She also noted concern over the loss of views which would occur with a commercial height limit. She stated that the very small commercial uses are not actually feasible, noting that many currently in town do not appear to be successful. She stated that the only feasible commercial use appears to be high-rise office buildings along Pacific Coast Highway. She said the residents would probably oppose any greater commercial use. She said both the east and west sides of P.C.H. from 17th to 21st Streets are almost 100 percent residential. To introduce commercial would be highly objectionable and out of the ordinary. Dr. Brian Carrico, 2306 Pacific Coast Highway, discussed his letter of March 21, 1989; regarding an environmental proposal of tree planting along Pacific Coast Highway. He discussed the placement, cost, assessments, and advantages of such a proposal. He concluded by discussing the care and maintenance of the trees. He felt that the time is right to plant trees in the City in an attempt to beautify the City. Debbie Lube, 843 3rd Street, was pleased that her area is now out of the moratorium area; she therefore asked if her area could be designated quickly. Chmn. Peirce stated that the matter must be properly noticed; therefore, no action can be taken at this time. Ms. Lube stated that people do not want more commercial land in this City; what really needs to be done is to appropriately develop what is currently zoned commercial. She did not feel that residents would agree that this proposal would be the best of two worlds, as suggested by staff, to be zoned both residential and commercial. She stated that prompt action by the City is very necessary since this is a very stressful situation for residents. Larry Rooney, 732 24th Street, stated that he would be impacted by any commercial development on 21st Street. He noted concern over his view, traffic, and parking problems. He said 21st Street cannot handle any type of commercial development. He favored keeping the commercial access on Pacific Coast Highway, not on the residential streets. Don Karosevich, 840 15th Street, stated that he did not receive a copy of the notice of this meeting, and it appears many others did not receive notice either. He said there is an error on Page 31 of the staff report because there are actually three units at 822 15th - Street. He passed out copies of a map he prepared and discussed the three -unit project at 822 15th Street. He said there are now a total of three, three -unit projects, two of which are under construction, at 15th Street. He said precedence has been well -Iff- P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 objections to allowing nothing higher than what is currently existing. He felt that people should be able to improve their property. He felt that the only appropriate use would be for residential or small offices, because there is not adequate parking for commercial uses. He favored improving property in the City; however, he opposes a reduction in the livability In the City. He suggested that height limitations be imposed and that measures be taken to reduce the density in the City. Janet Murat, 900 15th Street, which is a lot abutting the current MUC, stated that she is pleased to see commercial development being restricted further down the hill. She noted concern over views. She noted that many people favor leaving the zoning as it is, and to keep the density as low as possible. She did not favor rezoning any additional areas for commercial, noting that there are already many vacancies. ' Sean Guthrie, 710 4th Street, discussed Page 63 of the report, and agreed with the recommendation for his block in regard to the boundaries; however, he did not support the recommended general plan change from MUC to medium density residential because it would mean rezoning the property from R-3 to R-2. He said he is surrounded by R-3 properties; therefore, he noted concern over the height limits and views if he is rezoned to R-2. He said many things must be taken into account before allowing commercial so close to residential, such as setbacks, stepping of the height, landscaping, and buffering, He supports an attempt to reduce density in the City; however, every property cannot be downzoned because of the property values involved. Jack Andran, 521 Gentry Street, discussed 18th, 19th, and 20th Street, stating that 1860 P.C.H. was omitted from the property list. He continued by discussing the various zoning on the east and west sides of these streets. He said if the R-3 zoning is changed to commercial, there would then be R-1 abutting commercial which would be inappropriate. He stated that several of the properties mentioned in the report are in better condition than described. He suggested apartment use over condominiums along the highway, because apartments can support a higher density than townhomes, are more "affordable housing," and can restore the stock of dwindling apartments in the City. He said that 18th, 19th, and 20th, on both sides of those streets, should remain R-3 to buffer the R-1 to the east side; and on the west side it would be a compatible use with the large complexes currently existing there. Virgil Daggi, 17645 Polora Street, Encino, owner of Lots 23, 24, and 25 in the Hermosa View Tract, No. 1 and 2, located on the north side of 21st Street, 220 feet .southwest of Pacific Coast Highway. He said all three lots are vacant. Prior to May 14, 1984, Lots 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 were zoned R-1 with C -Potential. On that day Lots 20, 21, and 22 were changed to C -zoning, and a 50 -unit hotel and restaurant were approved. At the Planning Commission and City Council meetings, his property was discussed. Statements were made by members that to do a complete and correct job of zoning, his lots should be rezoned to either R-2 or R-3. The hotel project expired years ago; however, his property, which was adjacent to the R-1 zone, became adjacent to the commercial zone. In regard to the potential commercial zoning, there is no boulevard frontage. His property is controlled by the commercial property to the north. In all fairness, and to make his position viable, he and his wife should also have the option of R-2 or R-3 zoning. Howard Longacre, 1221 7th Place, discussed past opposition to a proposed development at 15th Street and the suggested moratorium along the multi -use corridor. He opposed the term "commercial corridor" as well as the term "commercial." He stated that this proposal is government at its worst. He did not favor the City screwing around with zoning. — Of — P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 in the area. She stated that the parking is already very crowded, and additional commercial uses would exacerbate the problem. Ms. McHugh favored the empty lot on 21st Street at the highway being commercial; however, what she opposed is having the commercial, come half way down 21st Street. She felt that the commercial zone should come down 21st Street only so far as the other commercial buildings have come down. Ms. McHugh concluded by, passing out petitions which have been signed by the neighbors. Rick Thompson, 2420 Pacific Coast Highway, discussed Page 47 of the staff report which addressed alternatives. He stated that he favors the alternative proposal of the MUC going down Rhodes Street as opposed to Borden Street. He said there is currently a block wall on Rhodes Street separating the houses on that street from the houses on Borden Street; also the land is higher on the east side of Rhodes and lower on the west side of Rhodes; therefore, there is a natural barrier. He said Hope Chapel owns three houses on Borden Street, and they would like to see the property included in the multi -use corridor. Richard Baughman, 701 4th Street, president of the 4th Street Homeowner's Association, discussed Page 62 of the Staff Report and stated that one area was once zoned as R-3, and it is now suggested that it be rezoned to C-3. He stated that when he purchased his townhome he had no knowledge of the multi -use corridor and was unaware of potential rezoning. He noted concern over his property value should commercial be built next to the townhouses. He said that the theater on the highway which was built next to residential was very poor planning. He stated that he would take legal action before he would let the City rezone the property to commercial. He felt that zoning should be remain as it is, stating he could see no reason to change it. Barbara Adams, owner of Lots 5, 6, and 7 on 24th Street, stated that a 300 -foot drop on 21st Street for commercial use would drop her out of the commercial corridor. She stated that her three lots were recently merged into two lots; however, she is not in the MUC because she has R-1, nonconforming property. She questioned what would happen to her property if she is surrounded by commercial property. Ian Feldon, 703 4th Street, discussed Page 62 of the Staff Report, contending that the proposal violates six out of nine of the criteria presented by staff. He suggested that the notch depicted on the map be just a straight line. Nanette McChristian, 1829 Hillcrest Drive, stated that she will soon be moving to an apartment she owns atop a flower shop at 1901 Pacific Coast Highway. She said that the property she owns is zoned MUC. As a third -generation owner of this property, she had expectations to better the property as well as to enhance the community. If the property is zoned commercial, it will only add to the many vacant stores currently along the highway. She stated that a rezone will lower her property value; also, many residents will leave because they will not be able to enhance their property. She favored leaving the current zoning i place. She stressed that there are already many vacant stores along the highway. Steve Syckenoff, 1851 Rhodes Street, has a 50 by 150 foot lot with a 2500 square foot house on it. Directly in front of his property are apartment buildings that have been there for many years. South of the apartment building is zoned R-3. Further south is residential with some office buildings. He noted concern over his view, stating that commercial zoning would allow for a higher height limit. He also noted concern over the traffic and parking problems created by the other commercial uses. He said he had no P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 Chmn. Peirce suggested that additional copies of the report be made available to the general public. Mr. Schubach stated that citizens can obtain copies of the report; however, the cost is 20 cents per page. He said, however, that copies are in the library as well as review copies at the counter of the Planning Department. Chmn. Peirce noted that this matter must also go to the City Council after it is heard at the Planning Commission level." Public Hearing opened at 8:53.P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. Jan McHugh, 718 1st Place, felt that the staff report contains several inaccurate statements in regard to residences which are described in the report as "in poor condition." She said that her property is not in poor condition, nor are others which are so identified. Ms. McHugh stated that several people in the area did not receive notice of this hearing; therefore, she felt that the noticing process is somehow at fault. Ms. McHugh discussed Page 69 of the staff report, which pertains to her property. She said her properties are in the MUC, and she has made it known she and her husband want to develop the properties. She stated that she is very much against rezoning her residential property to commercial. She stated that one of the properties has been in her family for five generations, and she wants to build a home there to live in. She stated' that there is a sentimental value at issue here as well as a financial consideration. She felt it is not right to rezone people's property at random. Ms. McHugh stated that commercial properties are not doing well along the highway now. She stated that to rezone the area would not benefit the smaller commercial businesses, nor would it benefit the residences. Wilma Burt, 1152 7th Street, opposed the proposed rezone. She disagreed with the staff report wherein it says that residences will be allowed to remain as is at the discretion of the Planning Department. She stated that this proposal is stepping on peoples' toes, and she did not like it. She stressed that the general plan can be changed to conform with the zoning, rather than changing the zoning to conform to the general plan. She urged that the Commission use caution when making these changes. Penny Smith, 724 24th Street, representing the block of 24th Street, stated that only five people on the street received a notice of this hearing. She stated that she went door-to- door to alert neighbors of the hearing. She stated that staff must do something to ensure that everyone receives the proper noticing. Ms. Smith noted concern over safety on 21st Street if the zoning is changed. She said that 21st Street is the way most children go to school, and it is a residential street. She did not favor commercial abutting residential in this area. Ms. Smith stated that many of the business on the highway have "For Lease" signs in the windows. She questioned whether the City really wants more commercial on the highway. Ms.. Smith stated that allowing a hotel in the area would be quite unacceptable, especially since the traffic is already so bad on Ardmore. She noted concern for safety P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 designation of the remaining portion of P.C.H. needs to be addressed. The remaining commercial areas along the corridor are currently designated General Commercial on the General Plan Map, and they are zoned C-3. Some of the residential areas behind the commercial uses still maintain a C -Potential zoning classification. Continuing the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Area designation to these commercial areas to further ensure quality commercial development and to more clearly define the depth of commercial development would be a logical extension of the proposed General Plan Amendments noted above. Staff has not undertaken a detailed study of these areas at this time because of the priority of addressing the areas currently under moratorium. Once the land use designations and policies regarding the Multi -Use Corridor are resolved, staff could direct its efforts toward similar proposals for the remaining portion. of the corridor. Comm. Rue asked how residential uses along the commercial corridor would be affected. Mr. Schubach stated that residences could remain and could be improved to a limited degree; however, additional units could not be added. He said that residential uses would have the options of both residential and commercial. The intent is to retain the residential uses of those homes remaining in the corridor as residences, if desired, and to be able to improve and remodel and not be considered commercial properties. However, in the future, if those properties were obtained by a property owner that fronted on the highway, the properties could be used as commercial, with discretionary approval from the Planning Commission. In other words, the residences along the corridor actually have the best of two worlds, being able to be either residential or commercial without being' nonconforming in either case. Comm. Rue noted concern that the residences Would be forced to be commercial. Mr. Schubach stated that would not be the case; the intent is to allow residences to remain as residential and not be forced into commercial. He stated that maintaining and improving the commercial area while at the same time protecting the integrity of the residential area is the intent. Mr. Schubach, in response to questions from Comm. Rue, stated that the staff proposal at this time is general; specific standards will be written into the Specific Plan Areas. At this time, staff is attempting to obtain input on the general plan and SPA in general. Mr. Schubach continued by showing the various areas as depicted on Exhibit A, "Proposed Commercial Corridor Boundary." Chmn. Peirce noted that only a few members of the community have had an opportunity to see the staff report for their specific area. He stated that, for the benefit of the audience, the Planning Commission would recess and go out into the audience so that citizens could look at their copies of the maps and staff recommendations for their particular blocks. He noted that the Commissioners would answer no questions; the break was merely for people to see the recommendations for their area. Mr. Lough stressed that the Commission members must not discuss the matter with the audience; they could merely show their copies of the staff report to interested citizens for purposes of clarification. He said if citizens had any questions during the break, they must ask staff ,but not the Commission members. Recess taken from 8:35 P.M. until 8:48 P.M. P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 standards specifically tailored to areas of the corridor. The Specific Plan would be adopted by ordinance and would amend the zoning ordinance. The SPA would be based on the general policy statements included in this general plan amendment. Recomme'hded policies for the Specific Plan Area Zones: The current zoning ordinance has only a limited set of regulations on commercial development in the C-3 zone. It controls the types of uses, the amount of parking provided, and the layout of parking areas, building heights, and setback/buffering adjacent to residential areas. There are currently no requirements for setbacks from the street, landscaping, traffic studies and traffic improvements, the general layout of •the buildings, or . the appearance. Additionally, there is no provision for the review of commercial development proposals. Therefore, .if a proposed development meets the basic zoning requirements and the building code, it can obtain approval. Although this may be an acceptable practice for smaller commercial projects, it is not acceptable for the larger projects to be expected along Pacific Coast Highway. Development standards and plan review procedures should be established for the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Areas. The following are basic policy statements for the Specific Plan Areas. More detailed development standards will be developed based on the following policies: (1) Existing residential uses are permitted to continue indefinitely, and shall be allowed a limited amount of improvement and expansion as long as the residential density does not increase; (2) Residentially developed and vacant property can only be used for commercial purposes if the property fronts on Pacific Coast Highway or is part of an assemblage of properties containing a commercial project which fronts on Pacific Coast Highway; (3) New residential projects shall be prohibited, except on vacant parcels not fronting on Pacific Coast Highway, and not connected by ownership to lots fronting on Pacific Coast Highway. Any proposed residential projects must be approved by the Planning Commission; (4) Height limits and the method of measurement shall be established which will minimize impacts of commercial development on scenic views and on the privacy of adjacent residences; (5) Landscaping requirements shall be established to improve the attractiveness of development along Pacific Coast Highway and to buffer interfacing or abutting residential development; (6) Traffic impact studies shall be required for projects which will cause significant traffic impacts and these studies shall include proposed measures to mitigate the impacts; (7) All commercial projects shall require staff review to ensure compliance with the standards and policies of the Specific Plan Area, and significant projects shall require Planning Commission review and approval, subject to City Council appeal; (8) A list of permitted uses shall be established which permits a broad range of commercial and office related uses with emphasis given to uses which have the highest benefit to the community; (9) More than one SPA zone may be created for areas of the corridor based on the sub -area's unique features; (10) Orientation of all commercial development should be toward Pacific Coast Highway and not toward local residential streets; (11) Physical setbacks and architectural treatment shall be provided where commercial and residential development abut or interface; and (12) Assembled lots proposed for commercial development shall be merged as a condition of development. General Commercial Designated Areas Along Pacific Coast Highway: In consideration of the proposed designation of a portion of the Pacific Coast Highway corridor to Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Area, the question of whether or not to change the - P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 commercial development whenever possible; (6) commercial encroachment into residential neighborhoods should be minimized; (7) individual property ownerships should not be divided by commercial and residential land use designations; (8) the existing topography should allow for commercial development that will not significantly impact scenic views or require excessive grading; and (9) the depth of the commercial area should be consistent across streets wherever possible. The above criteria were used in making a judgment on the recommended location of the Commercial Corridor boundary line. A block by block analysis and recommendation is contained in Part II of this report. For purposes of the analysis, the• MUC was divided into four sub -areas: (1) Southeast -- south city boundary to 8th Street, east side of P.C.H.; (2) Northeast -- 14th Street to 24th Street, east side of P.C.H.; (3) Northwest -- 24th Street to Pier Avenue, west side of P.C.H.; and (4) Southwest 8th Street to south city boundary, west side of P.C.H. The boundary recommendation is depicted in Exhibit A. A recommendation for the amended general plan designation for the residential area outside the boundary is also included in the block by block description contained in Part II. In all cases the recommended change is from the MUC designation to a designation consistent with the adjacent residential designation. Locating the Commercial Corridor boundary as recommended in Exhibit A, and described in Part II, would result in the redesignation of approximately 20.4 acres from MUC to a residential designation, and the redesignation of the remaining 32.2 acres from MUC to Commercial Corridor. Although this would reduce the area of maximum commercial development allowed under the general plan from 52.6 acres to 32.2 acres, it would still allow for a potential increase in commercially developed acreage of 21 percent over the current amount of 26.7 acres. In order to convey a clear commitment to commercial development in the commercially defined area along P.C.H., the land use category of "Multi -Use Corridor" should be replaced by the category of "Commercial Corridor," which is defined as: "The purpose of the Land Use Category is to clearly define the limits of the depth for commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway and prohibit the development of new residential uses within this area. Existing residential uses within the corridor are expressly allowed; however, the transition of these uses to commercial usage is highly desirable. This category allows various types of commercial land uses including retail, service, and office uses. Automotive related commercial uses would be allowed by conditional use permit only. To ensure that commercial development will be compatible with existing nearly residential uses, standards for building height, parking and access, setbacks, and landscaping will be implemented through Specific Plan Area designations." The Multi -Use Corridor designation should be deleted from the general plan map and replaced with the Commercial Corridor designation. The proposed zone changes for the areas within and outside of the proposed Commercial Corridor: The residential areas behind the .boundaries of the established commercial corridor should be changed to the zoning classification of the adjacent residential neighborhood, and the C -Potential classification should be eliminated. The areas should be rezoned to R-1, R -2B, R-2, and R-3, whichever classification is consistent with the adjacent residential classification. For the area within the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Areas (SPA), the creation of specific plan areas would provide clearly defined policies, objectives, and development �2 — P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 further encouraged by the designation of C -potential zoning to certain properties which were vacant or residential and were perceived to have commercial development potential. Recently, the transition of C -potential properties to commercial uses has not happened as frequently as was perhaps envisioned. In fact, many of the properties have been developed with residential uses . and are currently part of established residential neighborhoods. Since 1979 the MUC has been the subject of several discussions aimed at determining whether or not this land use designation adequately represents the City's goals and policies regarding commercial and residential development along P.C.H. Issues discussed pertaining to future development of the Corridor include: (1) To what extent should commercial development be allowed to extend? (2) Is residential use a desirable long- term use within the Multiple Use Corridor? (3) Are development standards in place which would ensure quality commercial development and buffering of adjacent residential uses? If not, what should they be? After considerable research and public input, it was determined in 1985 that the Multi - Use Corridor should be redefined to more clearly indicate a commitment to commercial development. More recently, however, it has become apparent that this commitment to commercial development must be moderated to include a greater sensitivity towards existing abutting residential areas threatened by the encroachment of expanded commercial development. It is staff's position that the first step toward solving the problem is to take the following sequence of actions regarding the general plan: (1) clearly define the maximum depth of commercial development acceptable to the City; (2) designate existing residential areas outside the commercially defined area as Residential on the General Plan Map; (3) designate the commercially defined area as Commercial Corridor on the General Plan Map, amend the Land Use Element of the General Plan to establish a definition and statement of development objectives for this Commercial Corridor. The remaining actions to be taken in order to implement the above changes in the General Plan are: (4) amend the zoning ordinance for residential areas outside the commercially defined area from MUC to the adjacent residential zoning designation; and (5) amend the zoning ordinance to create Specific Plan Areas within the corridor (for example, one for the south portion and another for the north portion) to establish standards and review procedures for commercial development within the corridor. In order to determine the appropriate depth for the boundary of the Commercial Corridor, a land use inventory and analysis was conducted for the entire area of the MUC. The inventory was conducted to generate information regarding existing land uses, depth of existing commercial development, existing zoning, ownership, age of original construction, condition of the property, topography, and adjacent land uses. The information was compiled on a lot by lot basis, as shown in Part II of the report and was evaluated on a block by block basis. The following criteria were used towards making a final determination on the recommended location for the boundary line for each block: (1) the lots designated for commercial development should be of an adequate size and shape to accommodate commercial development of a high quality; (2) the lots designated for commercial development should contain enough area and have adequate features to allow for setbacks and screening/buffering of potential commercial uses from existing residential uses; (3) the depth of potential future commercial development should• generally extend a minimum of 100 feet to a maximum of 300 feet from Pacific Coast Highway; (4) areas designated for commercial development should have available access from Pacific Coast Highway; (5) housing in good condition should not be designated for –/r//— P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 l The staff report summarizes the study and analysis conducted by staff and includes recommendations for each block within the Multi -Use Corridor. The Pacific Coast Highway commercial corridor directly abuts Pacific Coast Highway to the east and west, extending' the length of the City of Hermosa Beach. There are four commercial sectors along Pacific Coast Highway: (1) Multi -Use Corridor -- 1st to 8th Street; (2) General Commercial -- 8th to 14th Street; (3) Multi -Use Corridor -- Pier Avenue to 24th Street; and (4) General Commercial — Gould Avenue/Pacific Coast Highway. Commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway is irregular in depth and is broken up by a stretch of residential uses between 17th Street and 21st Street. Each commercial sector has a somewhat different character in terms of types and intensity of commercial uses. For example, automotive and repair services are the predominant uses in the MUC between 1st Street and 8th Street. The most common uses in the general commercial area between 8th Street and 14th Street are retail and service businesses. The land uses in the MUC between Pier Avenue and 24th Street are a mix of retail, office, and multi -family residential, including two newer developments, Plaza Hermosa and Hermosa Pavilion. Finally, in the general commercial area near Gould Avenue, the primary land uses are retail and service businesses. The total length of frontage on the east side and west side of Pacific Coast Highway in the City of Hermosa Beach is about 12,600 feet. The length of P.C.H. frontage within the MUC is over 8,200 square feet. Approximately 76 percent of this frontage (6,236 feet) is developed commercially. Additionally, 52.6 acres of land are located within the MUC. Approximately 26.7 acres, or 51 percent, of this property is developed commercially. Almost all of this development is on properties which front directly onto P.C.H. About 44 percent of the MUC is developed residentially, containing 598 dwelling units. These areas are primarily located behind commercially developed frontage lots and are often part of established residential neighborhoods which extend much deeper to the east the west. The remaining 5 percent of the MUC is currently vacant. A table of information containing the distribution of land uses within the MUC by block and sub- area is included in the appendix. The Multi -Use Corridor is a land use designation that has been in effect since the City of Hermosa Beach Land Use Element was adopted in 1966. The MUC is defined in the general plan as: "The purpose of the land use category is to provide additional depth for development, and to allow various types of land use. It would include apartments, shops, stores, restaurants, office buildings, service stations, auto dealers, specialty shops, bowling alleys, and other similar activities. However; strict standards of development, including landscaping, setback, parking, architectural design, sign controls, and street appearance would be enforced." Originally, the MUC was regarded as a means of dealing with an area that, while primarily commercial, had a mix of retail, service, and low and high density residential uses. The depth of the MUC, established at about 300 feet, was thought of as a way to allocate enough land for on-site parking and to encourage the turnover of existing residences and small retail and service uses to larger scale commercial developments. It recognized the continuing problem of traffic, parking, and access which seemed to be a deterrent to commercial success along the highway. As part of a "mixed-use" concept, the MUC designation permits existing uses, particularly residential, to continue until such time that market conditions warrant a transition to commercial development. This transition of these marginal areas was f70- P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 consistent with the objectives of maximizing commercial development potential while minimizing impacts of commercial encroachment into nearby residential neighborhoods. On February 23, 1989, the Staff Environmental Review Committee recommended the adoption. of a negative declaration for the General Plan Amendments being considered for the MUC because portions of the MUC are proposed to be changed to residential designations, thereby reducing the potential intensity of land usage in the area. Mr. Schubach showed overhead transparencies depicting Exhibit A as Mr. Robertson continue¢ with the staff report. Staff recommended that the Planning Commission take the 'following actions regarding the Multi -Use Corridor and to adopt the following resolutions: (1) Establish the boundary of the Pacific Coast Highway "Commercial Corridor" at the depths recommended in Exhibit A and more specifically described in Part II of the staff report; (2) Amend the General Plan Map to redesignate areas not within the Commercial Corridor from MUC to Low Density Residential, Medium Density Residential, or High Density Residential, depending on the adjacent designation; (3) Amend the Land Use Element of the General Plan by adopting the recommended definition for the "Commercial Corridor" and amend the General Plan Map to redesignate the area within the established boundary from MUC to Commercial Corridor; (4) Adopt an Environmental Negative Declaration for the proposed General Plan Amendments; (5) Implement the General Plan changes by initiating zone changes for the residential areas outside the Commercial Corridor to classifications consistent with the adjacent residential classifications and by adopting policies for the Specific Plan Area classifications to be applied in the Commercial Corridor. Initiate discussion on development standards and development review procedures to be applied in the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Areas; (6) Consider the inclusion of existing commercial areas designated General .Commercial on the General Plan Map. Mr. Schubach explained that staff intends to present this item to the City Council within one month. He said that it is intended to continue with the matter as quickly as possible; therefore, zone changes for areas outside of the MUC would be presented to the Planning Commission as soon as the City Council gives their approval. Mr. Schubach continued by explaining the procedure which will be followed for these general plan amendments. In response to a question from Chmn. Peirce, he recommended that the moratorium remain in effect until after the zone changes take place. However, in areas where no zone change will occur, he said it could be recommended that the moratorium be lifted. Comm. Rue noted concern over the moratorium. He also stressed that caution should be exercised in making a decision on this area, noting that the best decision for everyone involved should be made. — [69 — P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT TO CONSIDER THE LOCATION AND POLICIES REGARDING MULTI -USE CORRIDOR AND TO CONSIDER A SPECIFIC PLAN AREA AND ENVIRONMENTAL NEGATIVE DECLARATION Mr. Robertson, Advanced Planner, presented the staff report dated March 15, 1989. On November 9, 1988, the City Council adopted a ten-month moratorium on residential and commercial construction for portions of the Multi -Use Corridor. The purpose of the moratorium was to give staff sufficient time to study the various land uses within the MUC and to recommend changes in the policies, regulations, and land use designations which guide development in the corridor. The primary reason for the study is to establish clearly defined limits to commercial development along Pacific Coast Highway which are -- /6R"— P.C. Minutes 3/21/89 confused since they have gone through the document several times. Chmn. Peirce noted that if Comm. Ingell favors commercial, there is now a two -two split as to what this area should be. Comm. Rue noted that if only two units are allowed per lot, • it doesn't really make any difference whether it is R-2 or R-3. Comm. Edwards stated that he could not support commercial, noting that the people living there opposed it. Comm Ingell stated that he favors commercial. Chmn. Peirce suggested that the area from 17th to 21st Street be sent to the City Council with no recommendation from the Planning Commission, noting that it is a two - two tie. He noted, however, that the boundary line will remain as previously discussed. MOTION by Chmn. Peirce, seconded by Comm. Ingell, to approve Resolution P.C. 89-28, with the above noted changes for Policy 3(a), 3(b), and 7, as well as the changes made to the staff recommendations. AYES: Comms. Edwards, Ingell, Rue, Chmn. Peirce NOES: None ABSTAIN: None ABSENT: Comm. Ketz Recess taken from 10:45 P.M. until 10:53 P.M. During the recess, Comm. Ingell was excused by Chmn. Peirce, who explained that Comm. Ingell had to leave for a business trip. TEXT AMENDMENT REGARDING HEIGHT OF HEDGES AND FENCES AND ADOPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL NEGATIVE DECLARATION (CONTINUED FROM MEETING OF 3/7/89) Mr. Schubach recommended that this item be continued until such time that staff can complete the necessary report, explaining that there is currently a staff shortage in the Planning Department. He stated that staff will publicly notice this text amendment again in the future, once time is available to prepare the report. MOTION by Chmn. Peirce, seconded by Comm. Edwards, to approve staff's recommendation to continue this matter to an unspecified date. No objections; so ordered. HEARING OF DETERMINATION FOR LOT MERGER GROUP L.M. 89-1 (CONTINUED FROM MEETING OF 3/21/89) Mr. Schubach gave staff report dated March 14, 1989. Staff recommended merger of the subject lots. This group of lot mergers is the City's second attempt at notification of the intent to merge these subject lots. Certified mail was previously sent; however, these notices were returned because they were either unclaimed, had expired forwarding addresses, were refused, or for other various reasons. Therefore, staff has remailed the ^(67_ P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 density. In regard to lot size, he stated that the lots to the south are larger. He also felt that in Hermosa Beach people support low density; therefore, the Commission should make every effort to support low density. Comm. Ingell stated that as one travels down 15th Place, everything is low density. One must go to 15th Street to find medium density. Comm. Edwards said that the medium density to the south was acceptable; however, he felt that the areas to the north and east of 15th Place should be low density. Comm. Rue noted that the area has apartments which are over 30 years old. There is low density .in the area. For the long term, he agreed that the area should be low density. Chmn. Peirce stated that he too could support low density in that area. The Commissioners discussed the area from 18th Street to 19th Street (map on Page 41 of the staff report.) Chmn. Peirce stated that the question is whether it should be low density or high density on the west side of P.C.H. Chmn. Peirce noted there are currently some two-family residential units in the area. He stated that it could either be low or medium density; however, for the long-term use on the highway, he felt it should be high density. Comm. Edwards stated that whenever possible, he would favor low density. In this case,' he felt medium density would be a compromise with what is currently there. He therefore suggested medium density. Chmn. Peirce stated, then, that that 19th to 21st Street should be the same. He felt that since this area is on the highway, it should be high density. Comm. Ingell noted high density is across the highway. Chmn. Peirce could not support medium density in this area. Comm. Edwards noted, however, that medium density would reduce the traffic and would be compatible with what is already in the area. Comm. Rue stated that there are apartments on the west side of P.C.H. which are used extensively. He could not foresee the use on the east side. He felt that high density on the highway makes sense to him and it provides more affordable for renters. Comm. Ingell felt that if the area is zoned R-3, there will not be more apartments; there will only be more condominiums with higher density. He stated medium density would encourage two -unit homes on those lots. R-3 would encourage more, smaller units. He said he would support medium density. Chmn. Peirce stated that, even though he feels high density would be more appropriate, he would go along with the medium density recommendation for the area from 17th Street to 21st Street, except for the northeast corner of 17th Street and P.C.H., which should be medium density. Mr. Robertson noted that Comm. Ingell previously recommended commercial for that strip. Comm. Ingell clarified that he prefers commercial, explaining that he was P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 Comm. Rue stated that when the SPA is done, it should be clearly specified what the requirements are. He questioned 'whether it is appropriate to require every project to come before the Board. He said that if a project is well done and within the SPA requirements, there is no need for it to come before the Board. He 'stated that the Planning Department is qualified to review many of the projects to see whether they comply to the requirements. He stated that recycling will not be encouraged if developers must come before the Commission with every single project. Comm. Ingell felt that to have projects be heard before the Board would ensure compatibility between businesses and surrounding residential neighbors. Chmn. Peirce noted that the commercial property is adjacent to residential, and the residential concerns must be addressed; also, requiring projects to be heard before the Commission would ensure that they are within the specifications of the SPA. Comm. Edwards also had concerns; however, he felt that every project might not need to come before the Board, explaining that it is hard to predict in advance whether such approval is necessary. He stated that it is important that homeowners have an opportunity to make their concerns known when a new commercial development is being proposed. Chmn. Peirce felt it would be appropriate to require all new commercial projects on the highway to come before the Board. Comm. Edwards agreed that the proposed wording should be included. Mr. Lough explained that staff would incorporate all the changes made by the Commission tonight and then staff would return with a resolution for Commission approval. Comm. Rue asked whether the Commission will next go through a series of analyses for each area to determine what standards should be applied. Mr. Schubach replied in the affirmative. Comm. Edwards stated that no final decision had been reached on the area from 15th Street to 16th Street on the east side of the highway (map on Page 35 of the staff report). Chmn. Peirce felt that the area south of 15th Place should be medium density because it is already adjacent to R-2 and it is already developed with multiple units. It is also adjacent to a very intensive use on the west. Comm. Ingell noted that a matrix will be prepared by staff and presented to the Council showing how each of the Commissioners voted. He asked whether there would be a problem if some of the areas have a 2-2 tie in regard to whether an area should be low density or high density. Mr. Lough stated that general plan amendments must have three votes to be approved, no matter how many Commissioners are present. A 2-2 vote shows that a motion failed; therefore, there would be no recommendation whatsoever to the Council. Comm. Edwards felt the area should be low density. He noted there is R-2 to the south; however, there is R-1 to the north and east. He said that the density . to the east has been addressed in other areas; using that rule of thumb, this area should also then be low /65 — P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 1st Street to South City Boundary (West Side) The frontage of this area is 55 feet. Depth of the MUC is 250 feet. Depth of the C-3 zoning is 190 feet. • Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 190 feet. Also, to amend the General Plan Map for the residential area from MUC to medium density residential. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff•recommendation for this area. Chmn. Peirce directed staff to prepare a matrix showing how each of the Commissioners voted on the various areas, so that the City Council could refer to the information when they make their decision. Comm. Ingell discussed the proposed Resolution, P.C. 89-28. He noted a typo on Policy 3(a): "on currently vacant lots or parcels of land which do not front on Pacific Coast Highway...." Comm. Ingell discussed Policy 3: "New residential projects shall be prohibited, except in the following cases (a) on currently vacant lots or parcels of land which do not front on Pacific Coast Highway and which are not currently connected by ownership to lots fronting on Pacific Coast Highway and which will be developed to a density consistent with surrounding residential densities allowed by the General Plan, subject to review and approval by the Planning Commission..." He said that if someone did not want to develop commercially, and they owned contiguous lots, titles could just be transferred and the lots would not have to be developed commercially. Mr. Schubach stated that that is correct. He noted that this issue should be addressed at such time when standards and regulations are formulated. He stated that at this time, a general policy statement is being made, noting that one would not refer to the general plan for hard and fast rules. Rules addressing this issue should be in the zoning ordinance. Comm. Ingell continued by giving a hypothetical situation illustrating his point. Mr. Schubach agreed that the issue should be addressed in the future. Comm. Ingell discussed Policy 3 (b) and suggested additional wording: "the improvement, expansion, or reconstruction of current residential structures which does not increase the current residential density (number of dwelling units) of the lot or parcel of land; and said improvement, expansion, or reconstruction must conform to the zoning standards." Chmn. Peirce stated that, according to the zoning laws, it must conform; however, such wording could be added for clarification. Comm. Ingell discussed Policy 7: "All commercial projects shall require staff review to ensure compliance with the standards and policies of the Specific Plan Area, and significant projects shall require Planning Commission approval, subject to City Council approval." He suggested that it be reworded to state that there shall be Planning Commission approval for all new commercial projects on Pacific Coast Highway to ensure compliance with the standards and policies of the Specific Plan Area. He felt that all commercial projects on the highway should be reviewed. He wanted to encourage development which would be compatible with the surrounding residential uses. Chmn. Peirce agreed. —/6 P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 3rd Street to 2nd Street (West Side) The frontage of this area is 230 feet. Depth of the MUC is 270 feet. Depth of the C-3 zoning is 190 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at the edge of existing commercial development: 190 feet deep along the south side of 3rd Street coterminous with the C-3 zoning boundary and 200 feet deep along the north side of 2nd Street ten feet behind the C-3 zoning boundary: Also, to amend the General Plan Map for the residential areas from MUC to medium density residential to be consistent with the area to the west. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation• for this area. With the exception of Comm. Rue, the Commissioners favored the medium density recommendation. 2nd Street to lst Street (West Side) Frontage for this area is 230 feet. Depth of the MUC is 270 feet. Depth of the C-3 zoning is 270 feet and 190 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary coterminous with the existing MUC boundary at a depth of 270 feet and to include policies and standards regarding buffering and requiring that commercial development be in conjunction with only the adjacent commercial uses to the east fronting on P.C.H. and further providing' conforming status to existing residential uses. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation. 1st Place to 1st Street (West Side) The frontage for this area is 232 feet. Depth of the MUC is 230 to 270 feet. Depth of the C-3 zoning is 150 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at the existing MUC boundary at a depth ranging from 230-270 feet and as in other cases to apply policies and standards regarding commercial development, buffering, and conformity of existing residential uses. Comm. Rue noted that there was strong opposition from the owner of 710, 718, and 720 lst Place to changing it to commercial; therefore, he would not favor a change to commercial. Chmn. Peirce noted, however, that according to the staff recommendation, the owner could build to the adjacent density, if so desired. So the only question is from a long- term perspective, and that owner's build -out capability would not be affected by whether it is in commercial or residential. Comm. Rue noted, however, that the adjacent properties will not remain R-3; they will be R-2. Chmn. Peirce noted that the zone would change regardless. With the exception of Comm. Rue, the other Commissioners favored staff's recommendation. /63 — P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 Comm. Rue agreed that Lot 5 should not be included in the commercial. Chmn. Peirce agreed. He directed staff to eliminate Lot 5 on 4th Street from the commercial area, and to leave the commercial in back of the parking lot at Triangle Hardware. The Commissioners favored high density for this area, based on the adjacent uses. After discussion, the Commissioners agreed that the area should actually be medium density, based on the fact that the area has gone through a number of downzonings over the past several years. Comm. Rue asked why the area wasn't designated medium density at the time the downzoning .occurred. Mr. Schubach explained that the designation was not changed at that time because the area was in the commercial corridor and there were consistency problems at that time. Chmn. Peirce stated, then, that 5th Street all the way to the south boundary of the City should be medium density. Comms. Edwards and Ingell agreed; Comm. Rue disagreed. Comm. Rue disagreed, stating that that area has been a relatively heavy area for high- density rental units. He stated that the numbers of rental properties are continually being taken away from the City. He felt that rentals are somewhat akin to low-income housing, and pushing everything to owner/occupied is not desirable. Comm. Edwards noted concern over changing density from one block to the next, stating that it will affect what can be built as well as people's property values. He noted that decisions are being made on uses which are existing, and the question becomes whether the City wants to change various areas over a period of time. He felt that if most of the units are already existing, it should be determined whether itshould be changed in the future. He noted that people have strongly expressed their desires to have low density in the City. He said that a guideline can be what exists next to certain properties when decisions are being made as to what they should be changed to. Therefore, he said he would support medium density in this area. Comm. Rue favored high density in this area. Chmn. Peirce stated that the Commission would recommend medium density south from 5th Street, with the exception of Comm. Rue, who favored high density. 4th Street to 3rd Street (West Side) The frontage of this area is 230 feet. Depth of the MUC is 270 feet. Depth of the C-3 zoning is 150 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary 150 feet for the north half of the block, coterminous with the C-3 zoning boundary and at 190 feet for the south half to include the church property. Also, to amend the General Plan Map for the residential area from MUC to MD residential to be consistent with the development to the west. The Commissioners all agreed with the recommendation for this area, including the recommendation that it be medium density residential. /6,z P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation for this area. Chmn. Peirce noted that this area contains no residential zoning at all. 8th Street to 6th Street (West Side) The frontage of this area is 443 feet. Depth of the MUC is 290 feet. Depth of the C-3 zoning is 122 feet, 290 feet, and 170 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 122 feet along the south side of 8th Street, coterminous with the C-3 boundary; at a depth of 290 feet in the middle of the block, coterminous with the C-3 boundary; and at a depth of 290 feet along the north side of 6th Street at the current R-P/R-2 zoning boundary. Comm. Ingell felt that the line on 8th Street should. include Lot 3, which is the C - Potential lot behind Music Plus. Comm. Rue asked about the status of Lot 3. Chmn. Peirce stated that the house is being refurbished for use as a residential rental. He noted, however, that the zoning for that lot should be left to the City Council. Comm. Inge11 felt that Lot 3 should be included. Therefore, he opposed the staff recommendation. With the exception of Comm. Ingell, the other Commissioners favored staff's recommendation. Chmn. Peirce noted that this area is already medium density. 6th Street to 5th Street (West Side) This area has frontage of 216 feet. Depth of the MUC is 290 feet. Depth of the C-3 zoning is 290 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary coterminous with the existing MUC boundary and C-3 boundary at a depth of 290 feet. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation. Chmn. Peirce noted that density is not at issue for this area. 5th Street to 4th Street (West Side) The frontage of this area is 236 feet. Depth of the MUC is 290 feet. Depth of the C-3 zoning is 130 feet and 140 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 130 feet on the north half of the block, coterminous with the C-3 zoning boundary and at a depth of 180 feet for the southern half of the block to include the residence at 731 4th Street. Also, to amend the General Plan Map for the residential area beyond the corridor from MUC to medium density residential to be consistent with the residential area to the west. Comm. Ingell disagreed with the staff recommendation, stating that testimony at the previous hearing indicated that the owner did not want to include Lot 5 on 4th Street (731. 4th Street) in the commercial area. He felt that it would make sense not to include it. • /�/ — P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 24th Street to 21st Street (West Side) Depth of the MUC is 290 feet. The C-3 depth is 88 feet on the north portion and 220 feet on the south portion. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 88 feet along the northern portion and at a depth of 290 feet along the southern portion. Also, to amend the LUP designation from the residential area from MUC to low density residential. Chmn. Peirce stated that the two vacant lots should be R-1; Comm. Ingell agreed. Chmn. Peirce felt that the other three lots should be either R-2 or R -2B, and the commercial boundary line should be drawn behind the perpendicular lots to Pacific Coast Highway. Comm. Ingell agreed that Lots 23 and 24 should be lopped off; he noted, however, that he had no opposition to the adjoining lots (20, 21, and 22) being R-2. Chmn. Peirce suggested that on 21st Street Lots 20, 21, and 22 be medium density and Lots 23 and 24 be low density, with the line drawn perpendicularly to the highway. Comms. Edwards, Ingell, and Rue agreed. Mr. Schubach suggested, then, that the C -Potential lots also be medium density, based on the large size of the lots and their usage in regard to the way they can be oriented if' they were to be multi -family units. The Commissioners agreed with the this suggestion by staff. (Lots 20-24 medium density.) 21st Street to 16th Street (West Side) The frontage of this area is 1341 feet. The depth of the MUC is 290 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary to include only the Hermosa Pavilion property. Also, to amend the general plan map to redesignate the remaining property from MUC to high density residential. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation for this area.. Except for Comm. Ingell, who opposed high density, the Commissioners agreed with staff's density recommendation. Comm. Rue asked about the possibility of having senior citizen's housing at what is now the old hospital property, stating that such housing would be a good use. Mr. Schubach stated that the issue of senior citizen's housing is still being discussed. 16th Street to Pier Avenue The frontage of this area is 631 feet. Depth of the MUC is 547 feet. Depth of the C-3 zoning is 547 feet. Staff recommended including the entire area of the block within the Commercial Corridor/SPA, thereby locating the boundary at Ardmore Avenue. P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 coterminous with the existing R-3(C)/R-1 zoning boundary. Also, to amend the LUP designation for the residential area behind the frontage lots from MUC to low density residential. The Comrhissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation; but they agreed that the area should be medium density residential. 19th Street to 21st Street The frontage of this area is 357 feet. Depth of the MUC is 260 feet. Depth of the R - 3(C) zoning is 100 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 100 feet along the alley and at a depth of 90 feet behind the apartment at 1906 P.C.H. coterminous with the existing R -1/R -3(C) zoning boundary. Also, to amend the LUP designation for the residential area behind the frontage lots from MUC to low density residential. North of 21st Street (East Side) The frontage of this area is 300 feet. The MUC depth is 165 feet. The depth of the C-3 zone is 165 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary consistent with the existing C-3 zoning and the existing MUC boundary at a depth of 165 feet along Borden Avenue, or along Rhodes Street, at a depth of 280 feet with policies and standards ensuring commercial development in conjunction with existing development along P.C.H. and maintaining the conforming status of the four houses. The commissioners all agreed that the boundary should be along Borden Avenue. Chmn. Peirce noted that this area is already low density. Comm. Rue felt that the boundary could be moved to Rhodes Street in the future if that were ever requested, stating that such a relocation could help alleviate the parking problems in the area. However, he felt that Borden Avenue is the appropriate boundary at this time. 24th Place to 24th Street (West Side) The frontage of this area is 216 feet. The depth of the MUC is 290 feet. The depth of the C-3 zone is 140 feet on the north half and 90 feet on the south half. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary to recognize the existing depth of commercial development coterminous with the existing zoning boundary at a depth of 140 feet along the northern half and 90 feet at the southern half. Also, to amend the general plan map designation for the residential area from MUC to low density residential. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation for this area, including the recommendation that the area be low density. /$�— P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 Comm. Edwards noted that the other side of P.C.H. is multi -family residential. This area all the way to 21st Street is 'residential, other than the few commercial lots. He said there has been a great deal of input from people living in this area who desire that it. remain residential. He said that if people like living there, there is no reason to change it; however, the areas which 'are commercial should remain commercial. In this area, where there is residential across the highway, the east side of the highway can remain residential. He noted that there is always the option in the future of changing it to commercial, if so desired, or if there is a sudden influx of people wanting to have commercial. He therefore favored high density residential for this area. Comm. Rue agreed that the area should be high density. Comm. Ingell felt that P.C.H. is definitely a commercial strip, and he could not see homes on the highway, especially with the volume of traffic in the area. He stressed that P.C.H. is a commercial strip. In looking to the future, he thought it should be commercial. Chmn. Peirce stated that he favored high density residential from 17th Street to 21st Street, except the areas which are already commercial, including the northeast corner of 17th Street and P.C.H. Comm. Edwards felt that people should be allowed to develop to the current density if the area remains residential. He noted that people in the area do not want to be rezoned. Comm. Ingell disagreed, stating that the Planning Commission is making a long-term decision, and P.C.H. is a commercial corridor, not residential. Mr. Schubach stated that it could be recommended to make this area ari 'SPA, with the option of allowing people to build to the R-3 standards, if so desired. Comm. Edwards favored such an option. Comm. Ingell stated that the cities to the north and south also feel that P.C.H. is a commercial corridor. Comm. Rue agreed; however, he felt that if someone had wanted to assemble those properties and develop them along the highway, it would have been done .a long time ago. He stated that the slope and the number of small lots would make it very difficult to assemble lots in this area. To do a decent project would be quite hard. Chmn. Peirce agreed, stating that the slope is too great. Comm. Ingell noted, however, that three of the four multi -unit dwellings want to be commercial. Chmn. Peirce noted that 17th Street to 21st Street is already low density, which is the staff recommendation. 18th Street to 19th Street The frontage of this area is 355 feet. The depth of the MUC is 280-300 feet. The depth of the R -3(C) zone is 100-130 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary line at the rear of the P.C.H. frontage lots at varying depths of 100 feet, 130 feet, and 105 feet. This is P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 the R-1(C)/R-2 zoning boundary. Also, to amend the LUP designation for the area east of the 126 -foot depth from MUC to MD residential. For the south side of 16th Street to 204 feet south, staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at the back of the vacant parcels (145 feet) and behind the Coast Pet Clinic parcel 150 feet. Also, to amend the LUP designation for the residential area located behind the boundary line from MUC to MD residential. Chmn. Peirce asked for clarification of the staff recommendation as to why it is being suggested to move the southerly portion to the east (map on Page 35 of the staff report). Mr. Robertson stated that 815 15th Street is vacant, and 809 15th Street is an older two - unit structure. He stated that the recommendation is consistent with the depth to the south. Comm. Edwards stated that the density recommendations are logical, based on what is currently existing and based on the size of the lots. Comm. Rue noted that there are some new three -unit condominiums backing up to 15th Street. These units back up to what Comms. Ingell and Edwards are proposing to be low density. He felt that "adjacent" would be to the south as well as to the east. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation. The Commissioners felt that the area north of 15th Street should be medium density; the area south of 15th Place should be low density. 16th Street to 17th Street (East Side of P.C.H.) The frontage in this area is 280 feet. Depth of the MUC is 300 feet. The depth of the C- 3 zoning is 100 feet. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary line along the rear of the frontage lots at a depth of 100 feet coterminous with the existing C -3/R-1 zoning boundary. Also, to amend the LUP designation for the residential area behind the frontage lots from MUC to LD residential. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation for this area,. including the recommendation for low density residential. 17th Street to 18th Street (East Side of P.C.H.) The frontage is 186 feet for this area. Depth of the MUC is 300-330 feet. Depth of the C-3 zone is 100 feet.

Also, to amend the LUP designation for the area behind the frontage lots from MUC to LD residential. Chmn. Peirce stated that this area could be included with the discussion of the other areas at issue (maps on Pages 39, 41, 44, and 47 of the staff report). Chmn. Peirce stated that. the question is to determine whether it is desirable to have residential or commercial on the highway. —15% P.C.

Also, to amend the LUP designation for the residential areas behind the boundary from MUC to MD residential. Chmn. Peirce noted concern over the property at 823 14th Street. He stated that he would favor the line remaining as it currently exists. Comm. Ingell agreed, as did Comms. Edwards and Rue. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation. The Commission felt that the residential property north of 14th Street should be low density. 15th Street to 16th Street (East Side of P.C.H.) The frontage of this area is 339 feet. Depth of the MUC is 300 feet. Depth of the C-3 zone is 42 feet, 84 feet, 100 feet, and 150 feet.

The depth of the MUC is 250 feet. The depth of the C-3 zoning is 125 feet on the north side of 3rd Street and 100 feet on the south side of 4th Street. Staff recommended locating the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 125 feet for the south half of the block, coterminous with the C-3 zoning boundary and at a depth of 112 feet for the north half of the block. Also, to amend the General Plan Map for the residential area beyond the corridor from MUC to LD residential. As an alternative, staff recommended extending the commercial corridor designation to the depth of Ocean Avenue and to develop a policy for buffers at the commercial and residential interface. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation, including the recommendation that the area remain R-1, low density. 4th Street to 5th Street (East Side) The frontage of this area is 342 feet. The depth of the MUC is 244 feet. The depth of the C-3 zoning is 116 feet.

Also, to amend the General Plan Map for the residential area behind the boundary from MUC to 1 -ID residential and MD residential to be consistent with the designations to the east. - 15-5-- _ P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 1st Street to 2nd Street (East Side) This area has a frontage of 255 feet. The depth of the MUC is between 245 and 260 feet. The depth of the C-3 zoning is 220 feet and 125 feet. ' Although the existing MUC boundary follows lot lines, it splits the GTE parking lot and it is not in a logical location. Except for two older houses, the uses within the MUC are commercial. Given this situation, staff feels there are two options for the location of the commercial corridor boundary: (1) Along the boundary of the GTE parking lot (500 feet deep on the north side of 1st Street and 285 feet deep on the south side of 2nd Street); or (2) Along the current C-3 zoning line (240 feet deep approximately at the rear of the•GTE building along the north side of 1st Street and 125 feet along the south side of 2nd Street to exclude the existing residential uses). The benefits of the first option are two -fold: it would recognize the easterly boundary of existing commercially related land uses and would provide for potential commercial expansion along the south side of 2nd Street where the two older houses at 830 and 838 are located (these properties would potentially provide the parking area needed to convert or expand the existing commercial uses at 134 and 142 Pacific Coast Highway and if developed would be subject to standards of the Commercial Corridor SPA requiring buffering from the residential uses). However, it would be inconsistent with the commercial depths to both the south of 1st Street and to the north of 2nd Street. The second option would provide for greater consistency across streets, but it would not be conducive towards the turnover, improvement, or expansion of commercial uses on the south side of 2nd Street. Also, the SPA standards should mitigate, i.e., buffer, the problems of commercial interfacing with residential. Staff recommended locating that Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary in accordance with the first option noted along the easterly boundary of the existing GTE parking lot at a depth of 500 feet along the north side of 1st Street and a depth of 285 feet on the south side of 2nd Street. Comm. Rue discussed an area on the map (Page 17 of the staff report) where there is a "bump up" on the north side of 1st Street, going east into the R -P area. This parcel is a fairly old, single-family dwelling. He said that the area across 1st Street is not consistent. Chmn. Peirce stated that the area is consistent, explaining that it the parking area for the General Telephone Company. Comm. Rue stated that the area, even though it is a parking lot, is not consistent across the street. He questioned whether that area should be looked at in a long-term persepctive, as to whether or not it should be in the commercial corridor. Mr. Robertson stated that the Commission could address such a use; however, staff is reflecting the current use. He said those properties facing the side streets could not become commercial. Comm. Ingell asked whether it is desirable to create nonconforming commercial uses in the City. Chmn. Peirce stated that such a situation would not be desirable. Comms. Ingell and Edwards, and Chmn. Peirce agreed with the staff recommendation for this area; Comm. Rue disagreed, stating he felt that someone in the future may want to come in and propose a commercial use at that site. They could then apply for a zone change and general plan change, if so desired. P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 Dandi Rachnighar, 1860 Pacific Coast Highway, Hermosa Beach, stated that he would like to see the area remain residential, rather than commercial. He stated that changing the designation from residential to commercial will only exacerbate the traffic and noise problems in the area. He asked that the area be left as residential. Jack Andron, 521 Gentry Street, Hermosa Beach, stated that nothing in the City is constant for very long, noting that P.C.H. started out as R-1, went to R-2 and R-3, and then commercial in some areas. He stated that unfortunately, one cannot go from C-3 back to R-3. He suggested that the R-3 designation remain longer. He stated that most of the parcels in question are individually owned. He stated that residential lots going to commercial are not large enough to accommodate the required side setbacks to make commercial uses viable. Roberta Farrell, 732 24th Street, Hermosa Beach, stated that the traffic on P.C.H. after 3:00 in the afternoon is very heavy; if the area is redesignated commercial and a hotel is built at 21st street, there could possibly be an additional 100 cars per day from the commercial use, whereas residential only generates about ten cars per day. Don Karosevich, 840 15th Street, Hermosa Beach, noted concern over the staff report which recommends implement the general plan changes by initiating zone changes for the residential areas outside the commercial corridor...." He asked whether zoning will be voted upon at this time. Chmn. Peirce clarified that that is merely a staff recommendation; no zone changes will be voted upon tonight. Public Hearing closed at 9:18 P.M. by Chmn Peirce. Chmn. Peirce stated that he agreed with the staff recommendation for all of the areas from 1st Street to 8th Street on the east side of the highway in the south end of town. He felt that the boundary line is drawn correctly. Chmn. Peirce suggested that each area be discussed individually. South City Boundary to lst Street (East Side) This area has a frontage of 170 feet. The depth of the MUC is 240 feet; the depth of the C-3 zoning is 240 feet. Staff recommended locating the commercial corridor/SPA boundary coterminous with the C-3 zoning boundary consistent with the existing MUC boundary at a depth of approximately 240 feet. The Commissioners all agreed with the staff recommendation for this area. The Commissioners also agreed with the staff recommendation of R -P density, which is high density. Comm. Edwards asked whether any buffers are proposed for this area. Mr. Robertson stated that no buffering is being suggested at this time. He continued by explaining that no zone changes are being proposed at this time. — t53 — P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 Mr. Longacre stated that the proposal for the multi -use corridor presents no City objectives; therefore, he did not feel it would be possible to devise an appropriate plan. He suggested that this matter be returned to the City Council with a recommendation that the moratorium be lifted and a request that the Council clearly state their objectives: He noted that this study is now also including areas of the highway not in the multi -use corridor; therefore, he questioned why the entire City is not being addressed. He said there is no citizen mandate for what is being proposed; and he felt the proposal is ill-conceived. Mr. Longacre stated that this entire matter is far too important to be left to one planner who is new to the City. Janet King, 2006 Pacific Coast Highway, Hermosa Beach, was concerned over how her property could be developed if it is rezoned, whether it could be developed as R-3 or only as a single-family residence. Larry Rooney, 732 24th Street, Hermosa Beach, asked how far the commercial down 21st Street will go. He noted concern over the impacts which would be created by the staff recommendation, stating that the proposal is not reasonable and is not consistent with the entire area. Don Karosevich, 840 15th Street, Hermosa Beach, stated that Page 32 of the staff report is erroneous, noting that 830 15th Street is three units on the lot, not a single-family residence as indicated in the report. He continued by discussing other properties on the street, stating that there are two three -unit lots now. He stated zoning other than R -2B would be inappropriate and would create a hodge-podge in the neighborhood. He suggested that the most practical zoning should remain R -2B in order to have consistent land utilization throughout the 16 lots included in this area. Betty Thomas, 1934 Pacific Coast Highway, Hermosa Beach, stated that her family has owned the property since 1952. She stated that in 1974 a 54 -page report was prepared by the City addressing the multi -use corridor. At that time it was decided that it was not viable to change the property from 19th Street to 21st Street to commercial property because of the topography, the traffic impacts, as well as other reasons. She asked what has changed since 1974 so that the City now wants to redesignate this area as commercial. Mr. Schubach noted that in 1974 the area was designated as multi -use corridor; however, since he was not in the City at that time, he was unable to explain the rationale behind the statements contained in the report. Ms. Thomas stated that in 1974 a 300 -foot multi -use commercial zone was proposed; staff is now recommending only 100 feet. She stated that such narrow setbacks would make the property almost worthless as far as commercial property is concerned. Since homes would be left as single-family residences without potential development, they would become almost worthless. She felt that, unless the City is practicing an eminent domain policy, inverse condemnation proceedings might be in order in this case. Marianne Kanes, 817 18th Street, Hermosa Beach, asked for clarification on the recommendation in the staff report, questioning why the residential properties are being proposed for high density, rather than low or medium density. She stated that the people who live on the highway are used to the traffic and noise; therefore, she could not understand why it is being proposed to make it high density, rather than low or medium density R-1. / Z — P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 the west side of Pacific Coast Highway from 3rd Street to the south side of 5th Street. He continued by discussing the diagram, and stressed that the Commission should be fair. He asked that his zoning be left alone. He suggested that the general plan be changed to conform with the zoning, rather than changing the zoning to'conform to the general plan. He noted that most of the properties in this particular area are already developed to R-3 standards; also, it would create a more sensible transition from the medium density residential to the commercial corridor. Mr. Guthrie stated that there are ten parcels, with 46 dwelling units, in this particular three -block area. If the R-3 standards are changed, there could also be only 46 units; therefore, there would be no change in the number of units or in the density. He continued by. discussing a chart he prepared addressing density. He said that 36 out of the 46 units are owner -occupied, the remainder are rentals. Mr. Guthrie stated that not only are a majority of the R-3 units developed to the R-3 standards, but also many of the R-2 units are developed to R-3 standards, noting that the R-2 units were downzoned from R-3. He discussed a chart he ;,repared addressing the standards to which many of the units were built. He said that if the staff proposed change is recommended, he would be able to build only two units, as opposed to three; also, he would have a view loss. Howard Longacre, 1221 7th Place, Hermosa Beach, passed out copies to the Commissioners and read into the record a statement he prepared: "Any proposal to shift boundaries of any commercial area without computations of potential building volumes, potential traffic counts, total residences to lose views has the cart before the horse and is bad planning and contradicts the City vision adopted by the Council 23 October 1986. "Anything done regarding commercial zoning in this small city should be done only after careful study of what has been done and learned in our two larger adjoining neighboring cities of Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach. "I note Manhattan Beach has rigid parking requirements in all commercial areas. They have a 26' height limit in the commercial area by the pier, we have a 35' height limit. Theirs is 4 feet lower than surrounding residential, ours is 5 to 10 feet higher than surrounding residential in the downtown beach area. "Along P.C.H., Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach have a maximum height of 30 feet. Ours is at 45 feet (much too high in my opinion). The South Bay Galleria is 50 feet high. 9 also note the recent failure at the ballot box of the proposed downtown hotel was primarily in my view due to size. Had this hotel been fully silhouetted with poles, strings, and flags and had people recognized the true massiveness, it would have been hard pressed to get half the votes it received. 9 propose that in any proposal or resolution sent to the Council, inclusion be made of the following four items: (1) that the commercial height limit of any commercial parcel, including SPA zone, be no higher than the zoning of any residential parcel within 500 feet of said commercial parcel in any direction; (2) that any commercial project higher than 25 feet from the lowest point of its parcel, including expanded remodels, be required to have full silhouetting for four weeks prior to a public hearing for this project. This is not expensive as a percentage of cost.

Minutes 4/4/89 in the residential area. His view would also be obstructed. He stated that when he purchased his property, it was R-1; now it is being proposed to rezone it to commercial. Chmn. Peirce noted that there can be a commercial use only if access is from the highway, not from 21st Street. Penny Smith, 724 24th Street, discussed the possibility of a hotel on her street. She continued by discussing a drawing she had prepared depicting the neighborhood and access to a hotel from the highway. She suggested that the same distance into commercial be used as is used for the other buildings on the highway. Ms. Smith continued by discussing the drawing. She suggested that the residential area be maintained as it currently exists. She asked what the • logic is in bringing the commercial use further down 21st Street. She stated that commercial would then be invading an •area which is residential on three sides. She said this would be encroachment. Mr. Schubach explained the C -Potential usage in the area being discussed by Ms. Smith. He clarified that current C-3 zoning allows a 45 -foot height limit; under staff's proposal, the height would be reduced. He stated that staff is proposing no C-3 zoning at this time; they are proposing a Specific Plan Area. Mr. Schubach explained that the logic in extending commercial down 21st Street is based on the fact that those lots were also proposed to be C -Potential in the past. Logically, staff could see no problem since the lots would act as a buffer. Staff addressed issues such as slope in order to make its determination. Ms. Smith asked whether the C -Potential has expired. Mr. Schubach stated that the precise plan has expired; and it would be necessary for the applicant to apply for a new plan if he desires to proceed with a project. He said that the C -Potential zoning has no expiration date. He confirmed that the expired precise plan was for a hotel. Ms. Smith discussed the criteria proposed by staff, stating that three out of the nine criteria significantly impact her property. She said there would be commercial encroachment into residential on three sides, the fourth side being Pacific Coast Highway. Also, there is an impact on the scenic views. The street on Page 50 of the report depicts 21st Street as not a small street; she felt this statement is in error. Ms. Smith stated that things should be discussed in terms of how it is now, rather than how things will be in the future. Ms. Smith stated that there are currently many commercial buildings along the highway, many of which are vacant; she questioned whether it is desirable to have even more commercial uses, given the current situation. Sean Guthrie, 710 4th Street, Hermosa Beach, stated that he purchased an R-3 home with his sister and friend, and they each hope to build their own units on the lot in the future. He stated that he supports lower density in the City, both in residential and commercial areas, whenever it is fair to the majority of the the property owners. He noted that the more property can be developed, the more it is worth. Mr. Guthrie distributed copies of a diagram he prepared depicting the R-3 properties on P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 Staff would like to emphasize that under the provisions of a Specific Plan, any commercial development would be required to provide buffering from the residential uses and would be subject to the scrutiny of the Planning Commission for appropriateness for that location. The additional 70 feet of depth, should develop wish to purchase it, would provide additional space for this type of buffering to enhance the project. Also, an additional 70 feet of property could be developed with single-family residences under the provisions for residential use within the SPA, giving the owner of that property both options. Staff's recommendation has not changed. As an alternative, however, the Commission may want to consider excluding the additional 70 feet from the Commercial Corridor and recommend its redesignation to Low Density Residential. 1st Place to 1st Street (West Side) Residents living behind existing commercial uses along both sides of 1st Place have expressed concern with staff's recommendation to include the entire MUC in the Commercial Corridor SPA. The residents have expressed similar concerns to those noted regarding the proximity of commercial uses to their residences. Also noted was the concern of the value of their property being dependent of the plans of the owners of the commercial property which does front on P.C.H. Again, it should be emphasized that the existing residential properties in question, under the proposed provisions of the SPA, can be improved or rebuilt to their existing density and would be considered conforming uses. Staff believes this to be appropriate as Current densities do not exceed what would be allowed under an R-2 zone. The designation of the property within the Commercial Corridor gives the owners a section option, to sell for commercial purposes. Also, any commercial expansion would be subject to the standards of the SPA requiring buffering and the review of the Planning Commission. The SPA designation would. not allow the residential property owners to build new residential units to the R-3 density. Staff continues to recommend that the Commercial Corridor boundary extend to the existing depth of the MUC for these two blocks as shown on Pages 68 and 70 of the report. An alternative would be to locate the boundary at the existing C-3 depth and to recommend that the R-3 (C) properties be redesignated to MD Residential and to further recommend the rezoning of these properties to R-2, consistent with the residential properties to the west. Public Hearing opened at 8:31 P.M. by Chmn. Peirce. Wilma Burt, 1152 7th Street, stated that neither Manhattan Beach nor Redondo Beach is widely using the SPA; and those are the areas with which Hermosa Beach will be competing. She said that several issues at hand .are very vague, and she suggested the Commission address them. One area of concern is the east side of the highway which has a steeper grade than the west side of the highway; and the buildings will therefore overshadow the buildings to the east all the way to Prospect. She stated that the west side of P.C.H. has no upsloping lots. She stated that commercial should be limited on the east side to no more than 30 feet, including roof structures; so that structures to the east can still get sunlight. William Pheiffer, 720 24th Street, stated that he did not receive a notice; however, he has lived in his new house only about one year. He stated that 24th Street is half new houses. He opposed any commercial use next door to his home, stating that if a hotel were allowed, no matter how much buffering there is, his property value will be reduced because a hotel, with its attendant noise, traffic, and congestion would not be desirable _74 q- P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 are certainly legitimate, staff feels that the commercial designation to a depth of about 100 feet is .the most appropriate designation for this area as it takes advantage of the value of P.C.H. frontage, while a residential designation would provide for a use that conflicts with the noise, pollution, and safety hazards associated with a major highway. Also, the current General Plan designation of MUC and zoning designation of R-3 (C) would allow the construction of multi -family structures to a height of 35 feet, the generation of additional residential traffic and parking, and would certainly increase the congestion for the area. Commercial development controlled under the provisions of a Specific Plan Area designation, however, would be subject to requirements addressing setbacks, buffering, landscaping, architectural treatment, and height. The following comparison chart shows what would be allowed under an R-3 designation versus a Commercial Corridor SPA designation: R-3 (C) ZONING CORRIDOR SPA Project Review None Review for design, traffic impact Setbacks 5' rear minimum 8' from res. 3' on alley property, plus 2' for each additional story not required landscaping required, screening 35' height limit set height limit no project review consider in project review Buffering View Impact Traffic Impacts Parking directed to alley, congestion at night, weekends directed to P.C.H. daytime usage night, weekend provided on site, impact daytime impact Staff continues to recommend locating the commercial boundary along the rear of the frontage lots as shown on the map on Page 44 of the original report. The alternative for the Commission, if it wishes to lock in residential uses on Pacific Coast Highway frontage lots, is to change the General Plan designation from MUC to High Density Residential for the frontage lots and recommend dropping the C -Potential portion of the existing R-3 zoning classification. 24th Street to 21st Street (West Side) Several residents who live on 24th Street expressed their concern with staff's recommendation to locate the Commercial Corridor boundary at a depth of 290 feet along 21st Street. They primarily expressed concern about the possible loss of views and privacy currently enjoyed because the existing commercial depth only goes to a depth of 115 feet. As previously noted, the current C-3 zoning goes to a depth of 220 feet (previously approved for a hotel, now expired), behind which is 70 more feet of vacant property. P.C. Minutes 4/4/$9 regarding the proposed boundary for the following areas which were discussed at the previous meeting: 18th Street to 21st Street (east side of P.C.H.); 24th Street to 21st Street (west side of P.C.H.); and 1st Place to 1st Street (west side of P.C.H.). Staff has. not changed its original recommendation for these areas. For the other areas discussed at the meeting, 15th Street to 16th Street (east side), north of 21st Street (east side), and 5th Street to 4th Street (west side), staff has no additional comments and maintains its original recommendation. Residential Use in the Commercial Corridor: The proposed policies for the Commercial Corridor include a provision for the continuation and limited improvement of existing residential uses in the Specific Plan Areas. This would allow structures currently used for residential purposes on lots which are exclusively used for residential purposes to maintain a conforming status and to be improved at their current density. Also, if the dwelling was destroyed, it could be reconstructed to the same density. It would not allow these residential uses to increase density which would currently be possible for areas which are zoned R-3. Also, the policies of the Commercial Corridorgive exception to vacant properties not fronting on P.C.H. and with no ownership tie to property fronting on P.C.H. to develop new residential projects at a density consistent with adjacent residential densities. The Commission is reminded that under the provisions of the proposed SPA, any new residential project other than single-family or any new commercial project will be subject to Planning Commission review and approval. In order to clarify the policies for residential use in the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Areas, staff recommends that the definition of "Commercial Corridor" be modified to note exceptions to the prohibition of new residential projects and that the proposed Policies, Numbers 1 and 3 for the Commercial Corridor, be modified to read as follows: (1) Existing structures used for residential purposes on a lot or parcel which is exclusively used for residential purposes are permitted to remain indefinitely and shall be considered conforming uses, allowing said structures to be improved, rebuilt, or expanded, as long as the existing residential density is not increased. (3) New residential projects shall be prohibited, except in the following cases: (a) On currently vacant lots or parcels of land which do not front on Pacific Coast Highway and which are not currently connected by ownership to lots fronting on Pacific Coast Highway and which will be developed to a density consistent with surrounding residential densities allowed by the General Plan, subject to review and approval by the Planning Commission and; (b) The improvement, expansion, or reconstruction of current residential structures which does not increase the current residential density (number of dwelling units) of the lot or parcel of land. 18th Street to 21st Street (East Side): Several residents who live in this area near Pacific Coast Highway expressed their opposition to any commercial designation along P.C.H. frontage for various reasons, including view blockage, traffic, parking, and crime. Although many of their concerns -1447— P.C. Minutes 4/4/89 conspicuously displayed on the front street side of the building with externally or internally lit numbers." MOTION by Comm.

Ketz FIRST QUARTER GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT: GENERAL• PLAN AMENDMENT TO CONSIDER THE LOCATION AND POLICIES REGARDING MULTI -USE CORRIDOR AND TO CONSIDER A SPECIFIC PLAN AREA AND ENVIRONMENTAL NEGATIVE DECLARATION (CONTINUED FROM MEETING OF 3/21/89) Mr. Robertson, advanced planner, gave the staff report dated March 29, 1989. Staff recommended that the Planning Commission take several actions regarding the Multi -Use Corridor and to adopt the proposed resolution. Actions proposed: (1) Establish the boundary of the Pacific Coast Highway "Commercial Corridor" at the depths recommended in Exhibit A or at locations deemed appropriate by the Planning Commission; (2) Amend the General Plan Map to redesignate areas not within the Commercial Corridor from MUC to Low Density Residential, Medium Density Residential, or High Density Residential, depending on the adjacent designation; (3) Amend the Land Use Element of the General Plan by adopting the recommended definition for the Commercial Corridor and amend the General Plan Map to designate the area within the established boundary from MUC to Commercial Corridor; (4) Adopt an Environmental Negative Declaration for the proposed General Plan Amendments; (5) Implement the General Plan changes by initiating zone changes for the residential areas outside the Commercial Corridor to classifications consistent with the adjacent residential classifications, and by adopting policies for the Specific Plan Area classifications to be applied in the Commercial Corridor. Initiate discussion on development standards and development review procedures to be applied in the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Areas; (6) Consider the inclusion of existing commercial areas designated General Commercial on the General Plan Map located along Pacific Coast Highway within the Commercial Corridor. The Planning Commission continued this item from the March 21, 1989, meeting to allow for further discussion of the subject on a block -by -block basis. In response to some of the concerns expressed at that meeting, staff prepared a supplemental analysis. Provided in the supplemental information prepared by staff is an explanation of the concept of allowing residential uses to continue and be improved in the Commercial Corridor Specific Plan Area and additional information and possible alternatives /46 P.C.

Behind the auto dealership the residential uses along the south side of 1st Place, zoned R-3, down a moderate slope consist of 2 two-family units and one three-family unit in generally fair condition. Along the north side of 1st street the lot behind the auto dealership is under thesame ownership, zoned R-3, and is currently used for parking/storage of cars. The lot behind, at 715 1st Street, is an old single residence (built about 1929) in fair condition. Immediately beyond the MUC, the City owns property, currently vacant, which extends one lot deeper than the MUC boundary. Given that the existing commercial depth does not seem adequate for the commercial use (as evidenced by the use of the vacant lot for vehicle storage), and that the residential uses are older and not in particularly good condition, the extension of commercial depth should be considered for this block. In staff's judgement the logical location for the boundary would be the existing MUC boundary. This would be consistent with the depth recommended for the block to the north. Of course, as noted previously for similar situations, consideration must be given for the existing dwelling units, and for buffering where the commercial uses would interface with the residential uses. In this instance, the existing two and three unit residential uses could remain as conforming uses under the provisions of a Specific Plan Area designation since they are consistent with adjacent development to the west (i.e. the 2 -unit and 3 -unit approximate the R-2 density). RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at the existing MUC boundary at a depth ranging from 230-270 feet and as in other cases apply policies and standards regarding commercial development, buffering, and conformity of existing residential uses.

The depth of current development is one lot short of the C-3 boundary on both streets. Both of these lots are developed with nonconforming residential structures. The lot at 710 2nd street contains a.two family residence, built about 1969, in fair condition, while the lot at 725 1st Place contains an old single-family home in poor condition (this lot is under the same ownership as Vasek Polak). The two R -3(C) lots along 1st Place, behind the house, are developed with older two-family units in fair and poor condition. The residential area to the west, beyond the MUC boundary, is developed with a mix of single-family, two family, and multi -family residences zoned R-2. The depth of C-3 zoning along the south side of 2nd Street is not consistent with the depth either across the street or to the south because of rezonings from R-3 to C-3 which occured in 1979 and 1982. The depth of actual commercial development is also deeper than the surrounding depths, but it has not reached all the way to C-3 boundary, as noted above, which was established at the MUC boundary by the rezoning in 1982. In consideration of the above, a determination has to made whether to locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at the edge of existing development, at the existing C-3 zoning boundary, or at the MUC boundary line (a consistent depth of 270 feet). Although it would not be consistent with surrounding commercial depths, staff feels it would be most appropriate to locate the boundary at the MUC boundary, for two reasons. First, the existing residential uses are older, and not in particularly good condition and second, the additional commercial depth, in this instance, would allow for buffering and screening from adjacent residential uses, which is currently not provided. A 5 foot landscaped buffer is now required between residential and commercial uses, and with the proposed SPA designation the buffering would be more extensive. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary coterminous with the existing MUC boundary at a depth of 270 feet, and include policies and standards regarding buffering and requring that commercial development be in conjunction with only the adjacent commercial uses to the east fronting on P.C.H., and further providing conforming status to existing residential uses. 47 0'3'7) SW Approx.

(Going southward: "Brothers II Laundry," "Habash Cafe," "DJ's Bait and Tackle," "Hairs the Place," "Beach Cities Cycles," "Pacer Darts,." :'Hermosa Saloon," and a building used by Vasek Polak for storage). Behind these businesses, also within the C-3 zone, is a public parking area along the south side of 3rd Street to a depth of 190 feet, and a car storage area for Vasek Polak along the north side of 2nd Street to a depth of 200 feet. The commercial depth is consistent with the depth across 3rd Street, while it is less than the depth across 2nd Street. The residential uses located behind these areas, within the R -3(C) zone, consist of two multi -family apartment buildings (built in the early 1960's) in fair condition, along 3rd Street, and two single-family residences in fair to good condition along 2nd Street. Beyond the MUC to the west the area is developed with a mix of single-family, two-family, and multi -family residences zoned R-2. The existing depth of commercial development is adequate to support existing commercial uses, and would be deep enough to accomodate improvements and/or expansion. Also, the residential uses are in acceptable condition and should not be designated for commercial use.

The residential uses behind these commercial' uses are primarily new multi -family apartments or condominiums on property zoned R -3(C). An older single-family unit in poor condition is located behind the hardware store parking area. Beyond the boundary of the MUC, to the west, the residential area is developed with a mix of one and two family units and multi -family units and is zoned R-2 (This area was rezoned from R-3 to R-2 in 1987). The existing depth of commercial development seems adequate for this block, and with the residential uses immediately to the west being fairly recently developed the commercial designation should extend no further than the existing commercial development, except for the single family dwelling located behind the parking area (at 731 4th Street) which would allow for some commercial expansion without impacting the existing neighborhood. Of course, this property could only be developed in conjuction with commercial property to the east, and otherwise should maintain a conforming status.

(i�8) ST. 7 r s developed with an older residential development in poor condition, Staff believes that the commercial depth should be extended to at least 230 feet to include this lot. Also, because the next two lots are already zoned R -P and front on a local street which which is highly undesirable (automotive uses are located directly across the street) these lots should also be included to a depth of 290 feet. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial/SPA boundary at a depth of 122 feet along the south side of 8th Street, coterminous with the C-3 boundary; at a depth of 290 feet in the middle of the block, coterminous with the C-3 boundary; and at a depth of 290 feet along the north side of 6th Street at the current R-P/R-2 zoning boundary. 8TH STREET TO 6TH STREET (West Side) FRONTAGE: 443 feet DEPTH OF MUC: 290 feet DEPTH OF C-3 ZONING: 122 feet, 290 feet, 170 feet South side of 8th Street: Existing development consists of the "Music Plus" store, zoned C-3. to a depth of 122 feet. Behind this store on property zoned R -2(C) is an older single-family home for sale, and a new 4 -unit apartment and a duplex both in good condition. These residential uses are part of a neighborhood of single-family and two-family developments on both sides of 8th street which continue to the west. They directly abut commercially zoned vacant land to the south. The existing commercial depth seems adequate to accomodate the existing commercial use. A recent attempt to expand that depth to provide more parking was supported by the City only with stringent conditions because of the concern of residents in the 8th street neighborhood. Given this concern, the decent quality of the neighborhood, and the 50 foot commercial depth across 8th street to the north, staff feels the commercial designation should extend no further than the existing commercial depth of 122 feet. Middle of the block: Existing development consists of a series of old commercial buildings fronting on P.C.H. containing"Recycled Records," and a Thai Restaurant," which apparently have residences above, and the "Mar Vista" motel, which has rooms to the rear of the front building, and "Learned Lumber." These businesses are located on lots zoned C-3 with depth of 290 feet. In the rear of the lot containing the motel there is an old residence and a large vacant field. The 290 foot depth of commercial zoning accomodates the existing lumber yard, and would be conducive to the possible turnover or improvement of the lot containing the motel. This depth should be maintained in a commercial designation. North side of 6th Street Existing development consists of an auto supply store and the "Remax Realtors" office building on P.C.H. Behind these uses to a depth of 200 feet is an access drive and parking area for "Learned Lumber," a 2 -unit development in poor condition at 721 under the same ownership, and two older single family homes in fair condition. The C-3 zoning goes to a depth of 170 feet, followed by an SPA zone from 170 feet to 230 feet, and an R -P zone from 230 feet to 290 feet. Because the depth of existing commercial development extends to 200 feet and the next adjacent lot is under the same ownership -(c ( 124) • • NE St. Address Lot 15th to 16th Size Use • Approx. Dist.

Also, on a separate frontage parcel there is an "International House of Pancakes" restaurant and a "Union 76" service station to a depth of 156 feet. These developments are much older than Plaza Hermosa and do not particularly fit in with the architectural theme of the shopping center buildings. Obviously, the current depth of commercial uses should be maintained in a commercial designation. Given that the development fronts on P.C.H. and is in a very noticeable and central location, Staff feels that it should definitely be part of the Commercial Corridor/SPA. This would ensure that appropriate development would occur consistent with the standards of the commerical corridor should the older developments beimproved or replaced with newer projects.

The properties are an ideal size (290 feet deep) for quality commercial development,•however, established multi -family units are not likely to recycle to commercial uses in the near future. Additionally, the vacant property is under consideration as a site for a senior citizen housing project and would appear to be an appropriate location for that use. Obviously, the Hermosa Pavilion site should be included in the Commercial Corridor. For the remaining primarily residential properties, however, the determination is not so clear. Staff's position is that these parcels are currently not appropriate for ' a commercial designation for two reasons. First, it is unrealistic to expect these existing fairly intensive land uses to recycle to commercial uses, and second, if this stretch of P.C.H. was included in the Commercial Corridor it would make it difficult to justify locating a senior citizen housing project on the hospital property. Also, the proximity of commercial property would perhaps lessen the desirability of locating a senior housing project on the hospital property.

STREET (West Side) MUC DEPTH: 290 feet C-3 DEPTH: 88 feet (north portion) 220 feet (south portion) Existing development along P.C.H. consists of a 2 -story office building on the south corner of 24th street, the "Numero Uno" restaurant with upstairs offices, a 7 -unit apartment building (constructed 1971) and a vacant parcel on the north corner of 21st Street. The 2 -story office building located in the north portion of the block, as well as the C-3 zoning for that parcel, extends 88 feet deep. The property directly behind is developed with primarily singly family residences on a downward slope within a single family neighborhood. This "neighborhood" is separated from the commercial corridor by a traffic barrier. The depth of the commercial uses here is the same as across 24th street. For these reasons this residential area beginning with 740 24th Street should not be included in the commercial corridor. In contrast, the southern portion of this block, which is 196 feet wide, presents a good opportunity for quality commercial expansion. The Numero Uno Restaurant, the adjacent apartment building, and the vacant property are on properties with a depth of 115 feet. Directly behind are older nonconforming single- family residences to a depth of 220 feet. All of these are in the C-3 zone which extends to 220 feet deep. Vacant property zoned R -1(C) is located behind the old homes to a depth of 290 feet. The slope is less severe here, and the property across the street is developed with large apartment buildings. 21st street is relatively wide (60 foot R -O -W), and the parcels, if assembled, could all be accessed from P.C.H. A zone change and precise plan for a hotel was previously approved for the north side of 21st street to the depth of 220 feet. The approved precise plan has now expired. Expanding the commercial depth to 290 feet may better encourage the commercial use of this area in the future. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 88 feet along the northern portion and at a depth of 290 feet along the southern portion.

The building on the south side of 24th Place is two stories high with 2 levels of subterranean parking (constructed in 1985) on property which extends 140 feet deep while the building on the north side of 24th Street is two stories with one level of subterranean parking (constructed 1977) on propery which extends 90 feet deep. The C-3 zoning is consistent with these depths. The residential area, zoned R-1, located behind the office buildings consists of mostly single-family residences which appear to be in good condition. The residential area slopes rather severely to the west of the developments on P.C.H. somewhat limiting commercial development/expansion potential in that direction. Because of the steep slope and the relatively young age and decent quality of the housing, the residential areas should not be designated for commercial development. The existing depth appears to be adequate to accomodate commercial development. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary to recognize the existing depth of commercial development coterminous with the existing zoning boundary at a depth of 140 feet along the northern half and 90 feet at the southern half.

Going northward the development consists of "Jeannette's Restaurant", the "Pacifica Plaza" office building, "Pacific Import Auto Service", and a three-story office building. The northern boundary of this area is marked by the Hope Chapel. Behind the office buildings, beyond the MUC boundary and across Borden Avenue, up the gentle slope are four single family residences zoned R-1. To the rear of the single family dwellings is Rhodes Street (20 foot width). Either Borden Avenue or Rhodes Street would make a logical boundary for the Commercial Corridor. Locating the boundary at Borden Avenue would be more consistent with the recommended boundary to the south, while locating the break at Rhodes Street would be consistent with the existing commercial depth to the north. Also, locating the boundary at Rhodes Street would provide the potential land area for a needed expansion of the parking area for the commercial uses to the west. If the four houses on Borden Avenue are included in the Corridor, a policy must be adopted limiting the commercial use of the area to a commercial use developed in conjuction with the existing commercial development to the west. Otherwise, the dwellings should be allowed to exist with a conforming status. The creation of a Specific Plan area could address this issue. RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary consistent with existing C-3 zoning and the existing MUC boundary at a depth of 165 feet along Borden Avenue, or, along Rhodes Street, at a depth of 280 feet with policies and standards ensuring commercial development in conjuction with existing development along P.C.H. and maintaining the conforming status of the four houses. di -o Ott) 6 NE Approx.

The residential development consists of a 3 -unit apartment, 6 single-family units (built approx. 1941) and a new 5 -unit apartment on the south corner of 21st street (constructed 1987). Behind this first row of lots are older single family homes zoned R-1 on 40 foot wide lots sloping gently uphill. The majority of these homes, although originally built more than forty years ago, have been kept in fairly good condition. The homes along the north side of 19th Street were built in the early 1960's, and are also in good condition. The front lots are separated from the deeper lots by an alley for most of the block. This alley would be the most logical rear boundary for commercial development. The 100 feet of depth would be adequate for commercial development if some of the parcels were assembled. Also, the alley would serve as additional separation and buffering of the commercial uses from the residential uses. Along the north side of 19th street there is no alley, therefore, to be consistent with the alley the depth of the commercial designation should extend no further than the back of the front lot (90 feet). RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary at a depth of 100 feet, along the alley, and at a depth of 90 feet behind the apartment at 1906 P.C.H. coterminous with the existing R -1/R -3(C) zoning boundary.

The residential units consist of a mix of older single-family units, and old and new multi -family structures (built as recent as 1980). Some have driveways that require backing out onto P.C.H. The property at 1824 P.C.H. has a ground -level business (Lifesaver Word Processing) and a 2nd -story residence. Behind the frontage properties and up the slope, within the R-1 zone, are single family units of various ages (most built since about 1958) in generally good condition. The homes on the south side of 19th Street at 824 and 826 (a depth of 105-155 feet from P.C.H.) were constructed in 1985. The frontage lots are of adequate depth to support commercial development if assembled and should be designated accordingly. It does not appear, however, that commercial encroachment beyond the frontage lots would be appropriate here considering the slope, the age of the construction, and the quality of the existing residential neighborhood.

Immediately behind this first row of lots, up the slope, are single family homes zoned R-1. These homes are of various ages and types, and are generally in good condition. The residential usage of this area up the slope is consistent with surrounding neighborhoods. The two frontage lots currently developed with single family residences would require significant grading to be developed commercially. If the lots are assembled the depth of 100 feet should be adequate to support quality development, although the size of the development would be limited. The grade differential will serve as a natural buffer from the homes up the slope and should allow for the maintenance of scenic views. The continuing steepness of the slope is a natural barrier to any commercial expansion beyond the frontage lots, and the residential uses behind the frontage lots are in good condition. Therefore, the boundary should go no deeper than the depth of the frontage lots (100 feet). RECOMMENDATION Locate the Commercial Corridor/SPA boundary along the rear of the frontage lots at a depth of 100 feet coterminous with the existing C -3/R-1 zoning boundary.
