The first Housing Element was prepared in 1979 as part of the Citywide General Plan Update. In 1984, the Housing Element was again updated and included new policies and programs. Finally, the most recent Housing Element update, prior to this current update, occurred in the early 1990s. This current Housing Element update revisits the previous housing policy and evaluates the effectiveness of past programs that were designed to conserve, rehabilitate, and produce new housing in the City. Over the past several decades, the State Legislature has placed increased attention on housing -related issues in California due to the State's. significant population growth and the attendant impacts this growth has had on housing supply and demand. The population growth that has occurred in recent years has placed increased demands for new housing, especially affordable housing. California, in general, and Southern California in particular, are among the fastest-growing regions in the country. At the- same time, the cost for housing is considerably higher than that for other areas of the nation. The cost for housing in Hermosa Beach is greater still, due to the City's location in close proximity to the Pacific Ocean. Primary Purpose of the Housing Element The primary purpose of this Housing Element is to identify local housing needs and to implement those measures necessary to mitigate and alleviate these needs and problems for all economic segments of the community. Another key objective of this Housing Element is to contribute to meeting the State's housing goal as stated below: "The availability of housing is of vital statewide importance, and the early attainment of decent housing and a suitable living environment for every California familyis a priority of the highest order. "(Section 65581) All local governments are required to prepare long-range master plans (referred to as general plans) to consider those issues germane to the planning for future development, including land use, transportation, housing, health and safety, open space, and natural resources. In 1967, the housing e/ementbecame the third mandated general plan element, and during the ensuing years, numerous revisions were made to the regulations governing the scope and content of housing elements. State law is: now very specific concerning the scope and content of housing elements.m The State Legislature understands the important role that focal housing elements play in the implementation of statewide goals designed to promote the development of decent and suitable housing for all persons. The State Legislature also recognizes the importance of providing affordable housing to those households with low or moderate incomes. State law makes it clear that the provision of affordable housing is the responsibility of all local governments and, using vested powers, local governments should make a conscious effort to see that there are housing opportunities provided for all income groups. -2 1-1) State of California Govemment Code § 65581, as amended, 1999. 1-2) Ibid. § 65580. City of Hermosa Beach Page 1-1 Draft Housing Element Section 1.0 -Introduction The intent of the State's housing element requirements is based on the following concerns (Section 65581): 1. Local governments should recognize their responsibilities in contributing to the attainment of the State's -housing goals; 2. Cities and counties should prepare and implement housing elements coordinated with State and Federal efforts in achieving the State's housing goal; State Review of Housing Elements The Housing Element is one of the few general plan elements that must be reviewed by a State Agency prior to adoption. According to Section 65581 of the Government Code, all housing elements prepared by local governments must be submitted to the State's Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The HCD must submit comments to the City regarding the Element's conformance to State law as to scope and content. An element that has been "certified" by HCD is desirable in that such certification will facilitate the acquisition of grants and future development approvals. 3. Each local government should participate in determining the necessary efforts required to attain the State's housing goals; and, 4. Local governments must cooperate with other local governments to address regional housing needs.13) This Housing Element identifies those programs that will be effective in conserving and maintaining the existing housing in the City of Hermosa Beach while providing opportunities for new housing. The State's housing element requirements, and the sections where this information is included in the Element, are summarized in Table 1-1.

City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Section 1.0 -Introduction 1.2 Relationship to Other General Plan Elements The other Elements, together with this Housing Element, that comprise the Hermosa Beach General Plan are required by State law to be internally consistent. Collectively, the City's General Plan Elements provide the framework for development of facilities, services,and land uses necessary to address the needs and desires of the City's residents. To ensure that these needs are clearly addressed throughout the General Plan,.the Elements must be interrelated and interdependent. This Housing Element is most directly related to the Land Use Element, since it is the Land Use Element that designates the location and extent of residential development throughout the City. With regard to the City's existing adopted General Plan, the following findings of conformity may be made: 1. This Housing Element does not propose any changes in land uses or in zoning that would result in any inconsistencies with the adopted Land Use Element or with the other General Plan Elements; 2. This Housing Element will not change the adopted land use and/or development standards included in the Land Use Element; 3. This Housing Element does not promote or propose any land use changes requiring the installation of any new streets or infrastructure not already anticipated in the General Plan; 4. The City's ability to accommodate new residential development is limited. As a result, the focus of this Element is to identify strategies that will be effective in conserving existing housing, while at the same time, to investigate opportunities to accommodate new infill residential development; and, 5. This Element updates important background information used in the evaluation and/or formulation of housing policy. 1.3 Format of the Housing Element • The City of Hermosa Beach. Housing:Element consists of:four. sections: that together fulfill the State's housing element requirements. These sections are organized in a manner that will facilitate future updating in accordance with State law. These sections include the following: 1. Section 1.0 -Introduction. This section provides an overview of the purpose and authority of the Element, as well as an overview of its organization. 2. Section 2.0 - Profile Report. The background analysis included in this section serves as the basis for the development of housing policy. Key topics considered in this section include the City's demographic characteristics, the characteristics of the existing housing stock, household characteristics, socioeconomic characteristics, and the constraints that may affect the development of new housing. City of Hermosa Beach Page 1-4 Draft Housing Element . Section 1.0 -Introduction 3. Section 3.0 - Housing Projections and Need. The existing and projected housing need for the City of Hermosa Beach is discussed in this section. In addition, the City's land use policy,as it relates to the conservation of housing, residential development, and housing production, is discussed. 4. Section 4.0 - Housing P/an. The City's long-range plans for accommodating the existing and projected housing needs, -as well as the maintenance and rehabilitation of housing in the City, are detailed in this section. This section outlines the housing policies and programs that will enable the City to achieve its construction need allocation. Finally, this section concludes with an evaluation of the effectiveness of previous housing policies and programs. 1.4 Overview of the City of Hermosa Beach The City of Hermosa Beach is located within the coastal portion of western Los Angeles County and was incorporated in 1907.14 The City has a relatively small land area, consisting of only 1.8 square miles, and is rectangular in shape, with an average width of 0.5 miles and an average length of 2.5 miles. The majority of the City is located within the coastal zone due to the amount of the City's land area that has frontage along the Pacific Ocean. Hermosa Beach is bounded on the south and east by Redondo Beach, on the north by Manhattan Beach, and on the west by the Pacific Ocean coastline.15, Like its larger neighbors, the City has a well-defined commercial district that is largely oriented toward its coastal location. The great majority of the City's land area, however, consists of residential development at varying densities. The greatest densities are found in the coastal areas, with lower -density single-family neighborhoods found further inland. The City's location within a regional context is shown in Exhibit 1-1, provided at the end of this section. The City's location in relation to the surrounding communities is illustrated in Exhibit 1-2. Census tracts for the City are depicted in Exhibit 1-3. Aerial photographs illustrating the character of residential development in the City are provided in Exhibits 1-4 and 1-5. As indicated previously, the City was incorporated in 1907, and the majority of the City was already developed at the time of incorporation. More intensive development followed, and this intensification has occurred up to the present time. Thereare few vacant parcels of land remaining in the City, and the majority of the residential construction that has occurred involved the - "recycling" of individual properties. At the present time, the City is among the most densely- populated and developed communities in Southern California, with more than 14,435 persons per square mile and a development intensity of 7,215 housing units per square mile.l-6) The residential development intensity is more than double that of comparably -sized cities located elsewhere in the Southland, while the population density is four to five times that found elsewhere in the region. 1'4) Hermosa Beach, City of.

Population and Housing Estimates, Report E-5. May 2000 City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Section 1.0 -Introduction The majority of the City is developed as residential, with smaller commercial establishments located along the few key arterial roadways that traverse the City. Of the .City's total land area available for development in the City (606 acres), fully 75.3% is developed in residential land uses. Of this total, 16% is developed with higher -density residential development (33 units per acre), 18.7% is developed at medium densities (25 units per acre), and 39.6% is developed at lower densities characterized by single-family detached housing (13 units per acre). There are virtually no industrial and manufacturing uses remaining in the City.t°7)' According to the most recent population and housing estimates, there are currently 19,631 persons living in the City and 9,813 housing units. Of the total number of existing housing units, 3,969 units (39.9%) consist of single-family "detached" units; 943 units (9.5%) are single-family "attached" units; and 4,824 units (50.0%) are contained in structures containing two or more units. In addition, the City contains a substantial number of mobile homes (77 units, or 0.8% of the total housing in the City) relative to the surrounding area., -8) For the development of new housing, the City must continue to be an active participant with the private sector in the provision of new housing. The City does not have a redevelopment agency. In addition, limited outside public sources are available for new housing development because of the income limits associated with most of these public programs. Finally, the use of public funds to construct affordable housing in the City would not represent an.efficient expenditure of public money due to the high land and development costs, the City's distance from major employment centers, and the lack of available public mass transit facilities (freeways, _ light rail, etc.). Nevertheless, the City, as emphasized in this Housing Element, remains committed to the following: 1. The continuation of land use and development policy that maintains and promotes residential development as the pre-eminent land use in the City; 2. The continuation of efforts to preserve housing, especially housing that is more affordable, in the City; 3. The continuation of efforts designed to promote the rehabilitation and preservation of the City's existing housing resources;` 4. The continued removal of governmental constraints that may impede the development of new housing; and; 5. The continuation of innovating programs that will encourage new housing development, including affordable housing. 1"7) City of Hermosa Beach. General Plan.

According to the State of California requirements governing the scope and content of housing elements prepared by local governments, this Element must contain detailed background information as part of its compilation and preparation.2-') This Profile Report consists of the following sections: 1. The Introduction to the Profile Report summarizes the report's format and includes an overview of the City; 2. The Population Characteristics section describes demographic trends and characteristics that were considered in the formulation of housing policy; 3. The Housing Characteristics section describes the nature and extent of housing in the City of Hermosa Beach, as well as development trends related to new housing; 4. The discussion of Special Housing Needs groups provides an overview of those City residents requiring special consideration in the provision of housing; 5. The Socioeconomic Characteristics provides an overview of household income and other economic factors that may affect housing production in the future; and, 6. The Constraints to Housing Development section provides an overview of those variables that may affect the production of new housing in the City. 2.1.2 Sources of Information A number of sources were reviewed in the compilation of the demographic and socioeconomic information used in this analysis. The primary source of statistical information was obtained from the U.S. Bureau of the Census for the years 1980 and 1990. The 2000 Census was recently completed, but this information will not become readily available for at least 12 to 24 months. The U. S. Bureau of the Census divided the United States into geographical units to assist in the enumeration and interpretation of the census data. The largest of these units is the Standard Metropolitan StatisticalArea, or SMSA, which corresponds to the larger, more populous regions in the United States. The City of Hermosa Beach is located within the Los Angeles -Long Beach SMSA, which corresponds to Los Angeles County. Within each SMSA, data is collected for incorporated cities or geographically distinct unincorporated areas (referred to as census -defined places, or CDPs). These cities and CDPs are further broken down into yet smaller geographical units referred to as census tracts Each census tract is composed of block groups, and each block group consists of a specified number of blocks.2-2) For the purposes of this Profile Report, Census data used in the analysis relied on City-wide and tract -level information. 2-1) California, State of. General Plan Guidelines. 2-2) Bureau of the Census, United States. City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 - Profile Report There are three census tracts located in the City of Hermosa Beach: Tract Numbers 6210.01, 6210.02, and 6211. The locations of these census tracts within the City are identified in Exhibit 1-3, provided at the end of Section 1.0. The three census tracts found in the City, and the corresponding areas included within each tract, are described in Table 2-1. Table 2-1 also indicates the number of persons and the number of housing, units located within each Tract, according to the 1990 Census statistics.2-3, In recent years, there has been considerable attention given to the possible undercounting that may have occurred in the 1990 Census. This possible undercounting is due to a number of factors, including the failure to identify illegal or boot/eg housing units by the census -takers, the reluctance of undocumented persons to participate in the Census, and a failure to follow up on non-responsive households. For purposes of this Profile Report, Census figures have been used to characterize certain types of demographic and household data. However, the Census data provided herein may imply a level of accuracy that, in fact, may have a substantial margin of error.2.4> Table 2-1 Census Tracts Census Tract # Personsl• # Unitsl• Area of City 6210.01 3,890 1,910 This tract includes the northeasterly portion of the City.

The tract's boundaries include the City's corporate boundaries on the south and east, Pier Avenue and Aviation Boulevard on the north, and the Pacific Ocean on the west. 1. Number of persons and housing units in the Census Tract according to the U. S. Bureau of the Census (1990). Source: U. S. Bureau of the Census, 1990. Other sources of information were also used in the preparation of this Profile Report. The California Department of Finance (DOF) publishes housing and population data for every County and City in the State. These estimates are developed from information supplied by individual cities and counties, including building permit data, demolition permit data, and other information. The annual estimates are then periodically adjusted to conform to the Census data figures. The DOF data was used in this report to provide information related to housing and population for the years following the 1990 Census.2-5) The DOF information may also represent an "over count" of housing 2-3) The number of housing units identified for each Census Tract includes both occupied and unoccupied (vacant) units. 2-4) Follow-up studies and surveys completed for selected cities have indicated that the margin of error may range from 5% to 20%. The greatest margin of error is likely in those communities containing large numbers of persons of Hispanic descent. 2-5) California, State of. Department of Finance.

Local school districts are required to submit annual enrollment data to the State Department of Education. The enrollment data collected for the Hermosa Beach Elementary School District was used in updating Census data describing the City's racial characteristics and growth trends.2-6) Finally, an important primary source of land use and housing data was the City of Hermosa Beach Community Development Department; The Department maintains a detailed inventory of land uses for every parcel in the City. This data base was used in the identification of both available sites (together with aerial photographs) and underdeveloped properties.2-7) 2.2 Population Characteristics 2.2.1 Population Growth Trends According to current estimates provided by the State Department of Finance, the City's current population is estimated to be 19,631 persons.2-8) According to the 1990 Census, the City's population was 18,219 persons. In 1980, the City's population was 18,070 persons. Compared to other areas within Los Angeles County, the City's population has been relatively stable during the past three decades. Table 2-2 indicates the City's population since 1960, and in ten-year increments up to the present time. Since 1960, the City's population has increased from 16,115 to 19,631 persons, an increase of 3,516 persons,. or 21.8%. During this same period, the population for the County increased by 18.5%. Population growth in the City between 1960 and 2000 is illustrated in Exhibit 2-1. Table 2-2 Population Growth in Hermosa Beach 1960-2000 Year.

The District's attendance boundaries generally correspond to the City's corporate boundaries. The 1999 enrollment at this school was 713 students in grades K through 8. 2-7) Underdeveloped properties refer to those parcels that are not developed to the fullest extent possible under the applicable zoning designation. An example of an underdeveloped lot might be a parcel occupied by a single- family residence zoned for higher development densities. 2-8) California, State of. Department of Finance.

Table 2-4 compares the population growth of the City of Hermosa Beach with its surrounding neighbors.2-9) As indicated in Table 2-4, Hermosa Beach was the only one of the four South Bay cities examined that registered a gain in population between 1970 and 1980. The populations of Manhattan Beach, EI Segundo, and Redondo Beach declined in the decade following the 1970 Census. During the same period, the population of Hermosa Beach registered a modest increase of 3.78%. The trend in population decline in the neighboring cities appeared to reverse itself between 1980 and 1990. In the decade between 1980 and 1990, all of the cities experienced a gain in population, with the smallest increase recorded in Hermosa Beach. The population growth in the neighboring cities ranged from 1.65% to more than 10%. 2.9). The cities of Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, and El Segundo were selected because they are located adjacent to Hermosa Beach, or within the vicinity, and are coastal cities.

City of Hermosa Beach Page 2-5 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 - Profile Report A number of key demographic trends are apparent from an examination of Table 2-6: 1. The number of small children under 5 years of age recorded a significant increase between 1980 and 1990. This trend indicates that in the future, school enrollments are likely to increase. 2. Approximately 7.8% of the _City's population in 1990 consisted of school-age persons between the ages of 5 and 19 years of age. More significantly, the actual number of school-age persons showed a significant decline between 1980 and 1990, with the number of persons between the ages of 5 and 19 living in the City declining by approximately 40%. 3. The greatest decreases were registered in the age cohorts of 10-14 years of age (-44.3%) and 15-19 years of age (-50.9%). This trend was underscored by the declining school enrollments in the middle school and high school grades during this period. 4. The number of young adults between the ages of 20 to 24 years of age registered a 35.7% decline between 1980 and 1990. 5. Those age cohorts that included residents between 25 and 54 years of age grew during the same period. The greatest population increase was recorded for the 35-44 age cohort. 6. The age cohorts for the senior citizens registered a slight decrease. Table 2-6 Age Profile - 1980 to 1990 Source: U. S.

City of Hermosa Beach Page 2-6 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 - Profile Report The figures indicated in Table 2-7 underscore the trends identified previously in the review of Table 2-6. The numberof preschool -aged children grew, while the number of school -aged residents recorded a significant decline. The young adult category (20-34 years of age) experienced a modest increase overall. The middle-aged cohort (35 to 54 years of age) recorded a significant increase (37.41%), while very modest growth (3.65%) was recorded among the senior population. The trends are supported by other Census statistics that indicate the median age of the City's population.2'2) In 1990, the median age of City residents was 32.0 years of age. The corresponding median age for Los Angeles County in 1990 was 29.6 years.

City of Hermosa Beach Page 2-7 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 - Profile Report While the year 2000 census data is not available, it appears that certain emerging trends identified in the 1990 census seem to be continuing. Consultation with the local school district provided information related to the ethnicity and number of students that are enrolled in local schools. It appears that the number of elementary grade children living in the City has remained relatively stable. According to statistics provided by the local school district, a total of 722 students are enrolled in the local school. Over the planning period that will be -governed by this Housing Element, the number of children living in the Cityis likely to experience a modest increase. The trends also indicate that the number of young adults will continue to decline due to limited opportunities for new housing and due to natural trends. At the same time, the number of middle-aged adults is likely to increase, based on the trends that emerged during the 1990s. 2.2.3 Race and Ethnicity An important demographic indicator that must be considered in the formulation of housing policy is a city's racial and ethnic make-up. This information is typically obtained from Census statistics that indicate the respondent's race, ethnicity, country of origin, and language spoken at home. The Census statistics also indicate the City's race characteristics based on the respondent's answer to the census questionnaire. For purposes of this analysis, five broad race categories were used, including: white, black, Amerindian/Eskimo, Aleut, and Asian or Pacific Islander "Other." Table 2-8 summarizes the Census statistics, depicting "race" for the three Census Tracts that comprise the City. As indicated in the Table, the overall racial composition of the City is white, with minorities accounting for slightly less than 8% of the City's population in 1990. The largest minority group identified in the 1990 Census was Asians and "Pacific Islanders," accounting for just under 4% of the City's total population. The 1990 Census data is illustrated in Exhibit 2-3.

S. Bureau of the. Census The Census statistics also indicate the number of Hispanics or persons of "Spanish Origin" living in a community. In 1980, the Census data classified persons of Hispanic descent according to their surname. In other words, a respondent with a Hispanic surname was automatically classified as someone of Spanish Origin. The 1990 Census requested the respondent to identify his/her ethnicity. As a result, direct comparisons between the 1980 and 1990 Census statistics are not possible due to the differences in the enumeration techniques. In addition, the Hispanic category refers to ethnicity, and not race. As a result, persons considered to be Hispanic may also be included in all of the; race categories (white,*black, Amerindian, or even Asian). The percentage of the County's population classified as `Hispanic" in the 1990 census was 37.8%. Hispanics living in Hermosa Beach in 1990 accounted for 7.0% of the City's total population. The racial makeup of the population living in the City of Hermosa Beach is similar to that of nearby beach communities, as indicated in Table 2-9.

By 1990,the average household size increased slightly to 1.89 persons per unit. According to the most recent DOF estimates, the average household size increased further to 2.11 persons per unit. Over the two decades following 1980, the average household size increased by 12.2%, while the City's overall population increased by 8.6%. During this same period, the number of housing units increased by only 1.9%. These statistics indicate that population growth in the City is due to increased household size rather than new housing construction.

Bureau of the Census, 1980 and 1990. State Department of Finance 2000 An important consideration in the development of housing policy is related to overall population and housing density. These variables may influence quality of life issues, health and safety, public services, and infrastructure. As indicated in the Introduction to this Element and later in this section, a significant constraint in the development of new housing is the availability of land for new housing construction, the existing development intensities (especially in the Coastal Zone), and the relatively dense concentration of persons living in the City.

The City's population density of 14,435 persons per square mile isamong thehighest in Los Angeles County.243>. 2.3.1 Household Characteristics According to the Census, a household consists of the full-time occupants of a housing unit. A household may consist of one individual, a family, or a number of unrelated individuals. Family households consist of two or more individuals related by blood, marriage, or adoption, and do not include one-person households or households comprised of unrelated individuals. Table 2-12 indicates the household and family characteristics of the Census Tracts that comprise the City. According to the 1990 Census statistics, there are 3,562 family households in the City. Families account for 38.8% of all of the households in the City. The same statistics indicate that 2-13) The population density for Los Angeles is 8,154 persons per square mile, and 9,204 persons per square mile for Long Beach. City of Hermosa Beach Page 241 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 Profile Report 9,322 persons live in family households, or slightly over half of the City's residents in 1990 lived in a family unit. The proportion of family households was less than 50% in all of the Census Tracts in the City. These statistics indicate that a substantial number of persons in the City are living alone or in households where other household members are unrelated.

Overall, the number of units in the City has been relatively stable over the past several decades. Assuming the 1990 Census statistics and the year 2000 DOF estimates are correct, the City's inventory has increased by 262 units, or 2.7%, during the decade following 1990. According to statistics maintained by the City of Hermosa Beach Community Development Department, the net increase in the number of housing units is considerably smaller. According to the 1990 Census, there were 9,551 housing units in the City. Of this total, approximately 40% consisted of single-family detached units, approximately 9% consisted of single-family attached units, and approximately 14% were duplex units. Approximately 10% of the housing units in the City were part of smaller multiple -family developments containing between 3 to 4 structures. Over 25% of the housing units in the City were part of larger multiple -family developments containing 5 or more units per structure. Finally, group quarters and mobile homes accounted for less than 1% of the City's housing stock in the City.2-14) Comparable housing data derived from the 1990 Census for the County as a whole is compared to comparable statistics for the City in Table 2-13. 2-14) Bureau of the Census, United States, 1990.

People with special needs include people who are blind, deaf, or mute, or people confined to a bed or wheelchair, or requiring crutches. Many of these disabilities require that modifications be made to the housing units. Some of these housing needs include, but are not limited to, wheelchair ramps, widened doorways, grab bars, and access ramps. Furthermore, some individuals require housing that is close to health care facilities. City of Hermosa Beach Page 2-16 1 1 1 1 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 - Profile Report 2.5.1 Elderly In 1990, 1,065 persons, or 5.8% of the City of Hermosa Beach's population, were over 65 years old, and 2,086 persons, or 11.5% of the City's population, were over 55 years old. Comparing these values to 1970 and 1980 data, the City's elderly population (and percent make-up) has declined over the last 20 years. Between 1980 and 1990, the City's population above 65 declined by 5.1%. These trends are summarized in Table 2-20. Table 2-20 Seniors 55 Years of Age and Over - 1980 to 1990 Source: U. S. Bureau of the Census. 1980 and 1990 The City's elderly population (over 62 years of age) is relatively evenly distributed throughout the City. As indicated in Table 2-21, a total of 2,086 persons 55 years of age or older lived in the City in 1990. The County of Los Angeles' population over 65 years of age totals 860,587, or 5.8% of the County's total population. The City of Hermosa Beach, therefore, has a relatively low elderly population, with 8.6% of its residents over 65.

Families are considered groups of persons related by blood, marriage, or adoption. Households represent all persons living together as groups, regardless of whether or not they are related. The 1990 Census City of Hermosa Beach Page 2-17 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 - Profile Report reported that of the 13,992 households in the City, 673 (4.8%) contained 5 persons or more. Of these 673 large households, 657 (97.6%) were large families. The remaining 16 households were non -related people living together in groups and equaled less than 1% of the total households in the City.

Female -Headed Households Demographic, social, and economic conditions contribute to special housing demands for female - headed households. The 1990 Census reveals that there were 3,485 (24.9%) female -headed households within the City of Hermosa Beach. Among these 3,485 households, 397 (11.4%) had related children under 18 years old. Current data are not adequate to determine how many of these female -headed households are in need of housing assistance. However, because female - headed households are generally less affluent than male -headed households, it would be expected that there would be a greater need for assistance among female -headed households. Factors of particular interest to female -headed households may include security and, possibly, child care facilities. 2.5.4 Handicapped/Disability Status The 1990 Census included statistics indicating disability and employment status. This data provides insight into the number of persons residing in the City that have some form of work disability. City of Hermosa Beach Page 2-18 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 - Profile Report These individuals may require special facilities within their housing units to accommodate their special needs. As indicated in Table 2-23, a total of 226 working -aged (16 years to 64 years) adults had some form of work disability. However, of this total number, 139 were prevented from working due to the disability. In addition, a total of 295 persons over 65 years of age were disabled.

This is due to the variables that contribute to homelessness. 1. Single adult (usually male) transients passing through the City on the way to some other destination; 2. Seasonal or migrant homeless individuals, looking for work; 3. Chronically homeless persons, consisting of. single adults, including non -institutionalized, mentally disturbed individuals, alcohol and drug abusers, and elderly individuals with insufficient incomes; 4. Minors who have run away from home; 5. Low-income families who are temporarily homeless due to financial circumstances or are in the process of searching for a home; and, 6.

This is due to the variables that contribute to homelessness. 1. Single adult (usually male) transients passing through the City on the way to some other destination; 2. Seasonal or migrant homeless individuals, looking for work; 3. Chronically homeless persons, consisting of. single adults, including non -institutionalized, mentally disturbed individuals, alcohol and drug abusers, and elderly individuals with insufficient incomes; 4. Minors who have run away from home; 5. Low-income families who are temporarily homeless due to financial circumstances or are in the process of searching for a home; and, 6. Women (with or without children) who are escaping domestic violence.

However, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development estimates that the median income for Los Angeles County is currently $42,000. The Department of Commerce has defined various income groups based on the percent of median income earned per household. These income thresholds are indicated in Table 2-25. Very low-income households make less than 50% of the median income. Low-income households make 50 to 80% of the median income. Low- and very low-income groups are known as lower-income groups. Moderate -income households make up to 120% of the median income.

According to the 1990 Federal Census, the median value of owner -occupied housing was $431,000 in 1990. This is more than double the median value for owner -occupied housing countywide, and was also higher than that of the surrounding cities.

County $226,400 $570 Source: U.S. Bureau of the Census. 1990 As might be expected, the reported value of homes in inland areas was slightly lower than areas closest the beach (Table 2-27).

A search of advertised "for sale" advertisements was undertaken on the Internet. A total of 51 advertisements appeared in the databases for the month of October, 2000.

The difference between values reported in the census and home sales prices may be attributed to two factors. First, both the census and advertisements of homes for sale reflect the owner's optimistic opinion of the home value. In the case of sales advertisements in particular, the asking price is typically somewhat higher than what the seller actually expects to obtain. The recorded sales price reflects what a buyer is actually willing to pay. Second, the home value reported in the census is for owner -occupied units only, and does not reflect the value of renter -occupied homes. It is possible that the renter -occupied homes are being held for future remodeling or rebuilding and have a somewhat lower value than those homes the owner chooses to occupy. The same Internet databases were consulted to obtain advertised rental rates. This survey yielded 67 advertisements for rentals. The rentals range from a low of $595 per month to more than $3,000 per month for a single-family home. Still higher monthly rental rates were identified in the survey, though they appeared to be vacation and seasonal rentals. Some of these seasonal rentals range between $2,000 to $3,000 per week.

While additional housing development is possible, it is unlikely that an additional 332 housing units will be added over the 7.5 year -planning period defined in the City's RHNA allocation. The purpose of this section is to identify those constraints that may inhibit housing development. 2.7.1'Development Constraints' The City is exceptionally small, with a total land area of less than two square miles. There are few undeveloped parcels land or no large tracts of land available for future residential development . Growth in the City is further limited by the Coastal Zone requirements, which preclude the conversion of commercial visitor -serving uses to residential uses. The City does not have large commercial or industrial areas for re -zoning to higher -density residential development. More than 75% of the City is already residentially zoned, with half of this area zoned for R-2 and R-3 development. Approximately 14% of the City has commercial zoning, and 1% is industrially zoned. The balance of the City, or 10%, is zoned for open space, which includes the City's beach area. The land use distribution of commercial and industrially -zoned property is well below the neighboring cities in the South Bay and the region generally. As a result, there are limited amounts of non -residentially developed parcels that may be re -zoned for high- density residential development. City of Hermosa Beach Page 2-23 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 - Profile Report Hermosa Beach is already one of the most densely developed and populated cities in Los Angeles County. 2.7.2 Subdivision Patterns The lot pattern in the City discourages lot assembly to accommodate higher development densities, even with a re -zoning. Typical residential lots in the City are relatively small in size and dimension (often 30 feet by 100 feet). In addition, the maximum building height within the Coastal Zone is limited to 30 feet for multi -family development. The typical project in the City is a two -on -a -lot condominium, as virtually no property is assembled for higher -density, which accounts for the low net increase figures over the past ten years. A 3,000 -square foot parcel typically yields no more than two units, given the minimum unit size per lot and the City's development standards and parking requirements. As a result, a further re- zoning to higher densities in most areas of the City would have little effect on promoting new housing development. 2.7.3 Market Constraints Due to the limited supply of land, coupled with a strong demand for coastal property, the cost of land in the City is quite high relative to the land costs within the rest of the Southern California region. Land prices in Hermosa Beach vary, and generally depend on the availability of ocean views and the site's proximity to the beach. Financing costs have dropped relative to those costs prevalent in the late 1980s. However, interest rates have been steadily increasing in response to the Federal Reserve's concerns regarding. potential inflation. These recent interest rate hikes, coupled with the aforementioned development costs, have limited the ability of moderate- and lower-income households to qualify for construction loans. 2.7.4 Environmental Constraints - Infrastructure Roadways in Hermosa Beach are subject to high levels of traffic, which would be further impacted by any new development. The great majority of the traffic, especially during the summer months, consists of through traffic, overwhich the City has no control. Because of the City's location in relation to the regional freeway system, access t� the surrounding region is limited to the arterial roadways. The many thousands of visitors to the local beaches also impact parking and other services, in addition to traffic. 2.7.5 Environmental Constraints - Flooding Because of the City's coastal location and its topography, a substantial portion of the City's coastal zone may be subject to flooding in the event of a tsunami. The State of California Division of Mines and Geology, the United States Geological Survey, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency are in the midst of mapping the potential tsunami risk for the Southern California coastline. City of Hermosa Beach Page 2-24 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 Profile Report 2.7.6 Environmental Constraints - Seismic Risk The California Division of Mines and Geology is currently mapping seismic hazards for the urbanized areas of northern and southern California. This mapping program identifies those areas that may be subject to liquefaction and/or seismically -induced slope failure in the event of a major earthquake. Development within those areas that may be subject to these risks must undertake additional geotechnical investigation. to ascertain the level of risk and any requisite mitigation. The aforementioned CDMG mapping program. identified several areas within the City of Hermosa Beach where potential seismic risks are present. The coastal areas may be subject to liquefaction due to the presence of water -bearing, sandy soils. 2.7.7 Governmental Constraints Development Fees Governmental actions and policies may also serve as a constraint to the construction of new housing. These constraints include local ordinances and practices as well as state actions, though the primary land use controls in the City of Hermosa Beach include the General Plan, Zoning Code, and the Uniform Building Code. These plans and, codes indicate the location and extent of permitted land uses and development, and establish development standards designed to protect the public's health and safety. In addition, City fees and processing times may also affect development. Table 2-30 summarizes the planning and zoning fees for the City of Hermosa Beach, and compares the City's fees with comparable fees for the cities of Manhattan Beach and El Segundo. Plan check for the processing of building permits is generally four to six weeks, depending on the City's work load. For discretionary permits, there is an initial internal review period of 30 days. Once the application is deemed complete, it is then forwarded for the prescribed public review and noticing period. Building codes are applied to new construction, and are monitored and inspected under the building permit process. Where no permits have been obtained, inspections are made in response to requests and complaints. The City has adopted the 1997 Edition of the Uniform Building Code and other related construction codes. The ordinance details the revisions and amendments to the Building Code that exceed state standards. These amendments are all relatively inexpensive, and most of the revisions are related to fire alarms, smoke detectors, sprinkler systems, and other basic safety measures. 1 Table 2-30', Development Fees Location .

City of Hermosa Beach Page 2-25 Draft Housing Element Section 2.0 - Profile Report 2.7.8 Governmental Constraints - Coastal Zone The Local Coastal Program (LCP) currently being finalized by the City of Hermosa Beach addresses three primary issue areas: access, locating and planning for new development, and the preservation of marine -related resources. The LCP will contain a number of policies that may impede the construction of new housing development within the designated coastal zone of the City. =These include policies related- to the preservation of beach access, the provision of adequate parking (including requiring adequate off-street parking to be provided in new residential development),- and controlling the types and densities of residential development within the coastal zone. Those coastal policies related to residential development within the coastal zone include the following: The maintenance of building mass in coastal zone residential neighborhoods consistent with overall coastal policies; The maintenance of residential building bulk control through the implementation of development standards; The maintenance of residential structure height limits within the coastal zone; and, The beach areas must be preserved for public beach recreation, and no permanent structures, with the exception of bikeways, walkways, and restrooms, will be permitted on the beach.

The housing needs are categorized according to income groups. The income categories include Very Low, Low, Moderate, and High Income households, and the incomes of the selected income groups are based upon percentages of the median household income for the Los Angeles area and are defined according' to the following criteria: 1. The Very -Low -Income households are those whose income does not exceed 50% of the median household income for the greater Los Angeles area; 2. The Low -Income households earn from 50% to 80% of the median; 3. The Moderate Income groups earn from 80% to 120% of the median; and 4. The High Income households earn over 120% of the median income. SCAG's Regional Housing Needs Assessment estimated the seven-year future housing construction need for Hermosa Beach at 332 units (refer to Table 3-1). The housing needs for the selected income groups are shown in the lower portion of Table 3-1. As discussed later in this section, the replacement need is substantially higher than historic demolition permit issuance for the City. As stated in SCAG's RHNA report, replacement need is the third component built upon the concept that a certain number of housing units are needed to replace those lost due to demolition, conversion to non-residential use, or natural disaster. In addition, the RHNA objectives are retroactive. As indicated in Table 3-1, of the projected 332 units required to meet the City's RHNA, a total of 55 units will be required to meet the housing demand for very -low-income households, 42 units for low-income households, 61 units for moderate -income households, and 174 units for above -moderate -income households.

The assumptions used in making the adjustments to the construction need for the City's RHNA are identified below; City of Hermosa Beach Page 3-1 Draft Housing Element Section 3.0 Housing Projections and Needs 1. In 1997-1998, a total of 99 units were constructed, and 72 units were demolished, resulting in a net gain of 27 units during this period. 2. In fiscal year 1998-1999, a total of 92 units were constructed and 53 units were demolished, resulting in a net gain of 39 units. 3. In 1999 -September 2000, a total of 124 units were constructed and 103 units were demolished, resulting in a net -gain of 21 units during this fiscal year. 4. In 1998, the Sunrise Senior Housing development, consisting of 80 units, was constructed. Based on the aforementioned assumptions, a total net increase of 167 units have been added to the City's housing inventory during the 7.5 -year RHNA planning period. As a result, the total unmet construction need now stands at 166 units. Table 3-2 indicates the "adjusted" construction need when considering the net increase in housing units that have already been, or will be added, to the City's housing inventory since 1997.

The City is fully developed, with the remaining vacant land limited to scattered vacant parcels and lots. The City has a total land area of 1.8 square miles (1,152 acres), with 606 acres actually available for development (the difference is devoted to streets, public rights -of way, coastal areas, marine reserves, and easements). Of the total land area available for development, 456.63 acres, or 75.3%, is developed as residential.

An analysis of the City of Hermosa Beach Land Use Element underscores the developed character of the City., and the limited opportunities for additional development. Table 3-4 indicates the development, that would theoretically be possible if every parcel of land were to be developed at the maximum intensities possible. For example, the theoretical development scenario assumes all. of the 97.88 acres of land included within the high-density residential land use designation would be developed at the maximum intensity permitted under the General Plan. A survey completed in 1991 indicated that if the residentially -designated land area in the City (which accounts for more than 75% of the City's total land area) were to be developed at the maximum permitted intensities, an additional 570 additional housing units would have been theoretically possible. 3-2) City of Hermosa Beach General Plan. Land Use Element. 1988 City of Hermosa Beach Page 3-3 Draft Housing Element Section 3.0 - Housing Projections and Needs The analysis determined that up to 9,242 housing units would be theoretically possible under the full implementation of the City's General PIan.3-3) The development potential for the various residential land use designations is indicated in Table 3-4.

City of Hermosa Beach Page 3-4 1 Draft Housing Element Section 3.0 - Housing Projections and Needs Tables 3-4 and 3-5 clearly indicate that the City's land use policy promotes a wide range of housing types at varying development intensities. Based on the extent and location of land designated for residential land uses, and the permitted intensity of residential development corresponding to the land use designations, the City of Hermosa Beach General Plan is "non -exclusionary." 3.2.3 Land Availability - Vacant Land Inventory The primary constraint related to the development of new housing in the City is related to the lack of available sites for residential development. While the majority of the City's land area is designated for residential development, virtually all of the parcels where such uses are permitted have been previously developed. To assess the availability of suitable development sites for residential uses, a Citywide survey was undertaken in October 2000 to identify vacant and underutilized parcels.3-4) A total of 7 sites, with a total land area of less than two acres, are presently undeveloped. 3-4) City of Hermosa Beach Community Development Department City of Hermosa Beach Page 3-5 4.0 HOUSING PLAN City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Draft Housing Element Section 4.0 Housing Plan 4.1 Introduction to the Housing Plan The purpose of this section of the Housing Element is to identify those policies and programs that will enable the City to accommodate its projected construction need for new housing. This section consists of the following:.:. _ 1. The Introduction to the Housing Plan provides an overview of the components that comprise the Housing Plan; 2. The Housing Policies outlines those policies that serve as the City's vision relative to the conservation of existing housing and the provision of new housing; 3. The Housing Programs describes those programs that will be effective in the implementation of the aforementioned policies; and, 4. The Implementation Program highlights the manner in which new housing will be provided through the implementation of the housing policies and programs contained herein. 4.2 Housing Element Policies This section establishes the City's housing policy framework. Section 65583(c) of the Government Code requires that actions and policies included in the housing program address five key issue areas. As a result, the policies that have been included in the City of Hermosa Beach Housing Element, responding to the following issue areas: 1. The manner in which the City will assist in the conservation of existing affordable housing; 2. The City's strategy in assisting in the development of affordable housing; 3. How the City intends to provide adequate sites to achieve a variety and diversity of housing types; How the City proposes'. to removegovernmental constraints ".that may impact the development of housing; and, 5. How the City may help to promote equal housing opportunities. Issue Area No. 1- Conservation of Existing Affordable Housing As indicated previously, the City's proximity to the Pacific Ocean and its desirability as a place to live and vacation has contributed to the high land and housing costs relative to the surrounding region. The City, nevertheless, has been successful in maintaining its more affordable housing through the adoption of ordinances and special land use regulations. The City of Hermosa Beach remains committed to those efforts designed to preserve and maintain the existing housing City of Hermosa Beach Page 4-1 Draft Housing Element Section 4.0 Housing Plan resources in the City, including affordable housing. This commitment is underscored by the policies listed below. Policy 1.1 Policy 1.2 Policy 1.3 Policy 1.4 Policy 1.5 Policy 1.6 The City will continue to encourage the maintenance and improvement of the existing housing stock_within the local neighborhoods. The City will assist in the preservation and enhancement of the housing supply available to senior citizens. The City will work to minimize the conversion of existing lower-cost rental housing in multiple -family developments to condominiums. The City will promote and encourage the conservation and maintenance of the existing neighborhoods. The City will investigate potential sources of funding and other incentives that will assist in the preservation and renovation of older housing units. The City will continue to implement its current code enforcement procedures as a means to ensure that the conservation and maintenance of the existing housing resources in the City. Issue Area No. 2 - Development of Affordable Housing The City's ability to directly fund the construction of affordable housing is constrained due to the absence of redevelopment set-aside monies typically used for these purposes. In addition, the construction of affordable public housing within the coastal zone would not necessarily represent an efficient expenditure of public money, given the relatively high land and development costs in the City. As a result, the City has become an active participant in the development of. more affordable housing through the relaxation of land use controls and other incentives. The City of Hermosa Beach will continue to assist in the development of new housing for all income groups through the implementation of the policies listed below. Policy 2.1 Policy 2.2 Policy 2.3 The City will continue to promote the development of a variety of housing types and styles to meet the existing and projected housing needs for all segments of the community. The City will continue to encourage the development of safe, sound, and decent housing to meet the needs of varying income groups. The City will continue to implement the land use policy contained in the City's General Plan, which provides for a wide range of housing types at varying development intensities. City of Hermosa Beach Page 4-2 Draft Housing Element Section 4.0 Housing Plan Policy 2.4 The City will continue to support and promote home ownership in the community. Policy 2.5 The City will continue to cooperate with other government agencies, citizen groups, and the private sector, in order to assist in meeting the existing and future demand for housing. Issue Area No. 3 - Provision of Adequate Sites for Housing The majority of the City underwent development during the early years of this century. More intensive development followed, and this intensification has occurred up to the present time. There are few vacant parcels of land remaining in the City, and the majority of the residential construction that has occurred involved the "recycling" of individual properties. Nevertheless, the City of Hermosa Beach will continue to explore potential sites for residential development as a means to achieve a variety and diversity of housing types. Policy 3.1 The City will evaluate new development proposals in light of the community's environmental resources and values, the capacity of the public infrastructure to accommodate the projected demand, and the presence of environmental constraints. Policy 3.2 Policy 3.3 Policy 3.4 The City will continue to evaluate the General Plan and zoning to ensure residential development standards are adequate to serve the future development. The City will continue to review current zoning practices for consistency with the General Plan as a way to potentially facilitate new mixed-use development within or near the commercial districts. The City will continue to examine the Second Unit Ordinance to ensure that its utilization will promote the development of second units as a means to provide affordable housing and evaluate the feasibility of granting some form of amnesty for illegal units (as long as they conform to current applicable health and safety codes). Issue Area No. 4 -Removal of Governmental Constraints In previous years, the City has been successful in the conservation of housing, especially affordable housing, through the implementation of land use ordinances and regulations. A key component of the City's housing policy is to assist in the development of more affordable housing with the use of incentives and other measures. The City of Hermosa Beach will continue to remain committed to the removal of governmental constraints. Policy 4.1 The City will continue to abide by the provisions of the Permit Streamlining Act as a means to facilitate a timely review of residential development proposals. City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Section 4.0 Housing Plan Policy 4.2 Policy 4.3 Policy 4.4 The City will work with prospective developers and property owners to assist in their understanding of the review and development requirements applicable to residential development in the City. The City will continue toimplement its efforts to educate the community regarding the development standards contained in the City of Hermosa Beach Zoning Ordinance. The City will continue to evaluate its zoning ordinance and General Plan as a means to remove governmental constraints related to development standards. These may include, but not be limited to, parking requirements, new standards for mixed-use development review of the second unit ordinance, and senior housing requirements. Issue Area No. 5 - Equal Housing Opportunities Federal and State laws prohibit housing discrimination, based on an individual's race, ethnicity, or religion. Nevertheless, discrimination has been practiced throughout Southern California is spite of the enactment of laws prohibiting such practices for more than three decades. Enforcement of fair -housing laws generally occur through the courts, though persons being discriminated against often lack the resources to, obtain the necessary legal protections. As a result, alternative means to obtain assistance must be made available. Towards this end, the City will continue to cooperate with other public agencies and non-profit organizations providing this assistance. Policy 5.1 The City will continue to provide information and referral services to regional agencies that counsel people on fair housing and landlord -tenant issues. Policy 5.2 The City will continue to cooperate with the County Housing Authority related to the provision of rental assistance to lower-income households. Policy 5.3 The City will continue to cooperate with other cities and agencies in the area in investigating resources available to provide housing for the area's homeless population. Policy 5.4 The City will support the expansion of shelter programs with adjacent cities and local private interests for the temporary accommodation of the homeless population. Table 4-1 identifies the policies that have been included in this section of the Housing Element (Section 4.1), arranged according to the five main"issue" categories. The implementing housing programs and ordinances related to the policies are then identified in the second column. The individual housing programs referred to previously in this section and identified below in Table 4-1 are discussed in detail in Section 4.2.

Fair Housing Program Source: City of Hermosa Beach, 2000. 4.3 Overview of Housing Programs The programs included in this Housing Element focus on those incentives that will encourage the private sector to construct affordable housing in the City. As indicated in Section 3.0, the City's RHNA allocation calls for the construction of 332 housing units by the year 2005. Of this total, 167 units have been constructed, leaving an overall unmet need for 165 housing units. Given the rate of development that has occurred during the planning period to date, it is likely that the City will be able to achieve its remaining need overall. The City's difficulty in achieving the RHNA involves the need to provide 55 units for very -low-income households, 42 units for low-income households, and 61 housing units for moderate -income households. The lack of available programs and resources, coupled with the high land and development costs, will be a constraint to the development of affordable housing. As a result, the focus of the following programs are to identify strategies to assist the private market in the development of this affordable housing. These programs include: 1. A housing development incentive program that encourages the development of more affordable housing through the use of incentives. A second component of this program involves the use of mixed-use developments where the cost of the residential units would be offset by other development entitlements granted for the commercial uses. 2. A second unit ordinance program that involves the continued implementation of the City's (granny flat) ordinance as a means to provide affordable -housing. 3. This Housing Element also includes a program that calls for the identification of suitable sites where new residential development may occur, as well as sites suitable for the proposed mixed-use development ordinance. 4. A number of other programs included in this section are designed to promote the maintenance of the existing housing stock, the protection of the existing residential neighborhoods from the intrusion of incompatible land uses, and programs designed to address housing discrimination. City of Hermosa Beach Page 4-7 Draft Housing Element Section 4.0 Housing Plan 4.3.1 Housing Development Incentive Program Mixed-use development is one potential strategy to provide both affordable housing and help revitalize commercial areas of the City. Housing affordability is established by the Department of Housing and Urban Development. (HUD), and sets household income limit standards for very low, low, and moderate incomes. Generally, the cost of housing must not exceed 35% of available household income. Mixed-use development can help increase housing affordability by decreasing both the cost of development and other household costs. For example, the land cost and construction associated with residential development may be reduced if commercial or office development included as part of a mixed-use project underwrites a portion of that cost. For future occupants, it can help minimize transportation costs because it can potentially reduce or eliminate work trips if one lives and works in the same space and helps reduce the amount of household income spent on transportation overhead and maintenance costs. Furthermore, it permits more efficient use of time because there is more time potentially available for work and less time allocated to work trip commutes. So mixed-use development can help occupants conserve that part of their income that is typically diverted to cover work-related transportation and commuting costs. Commercial land values in the City are approximately one-third the cost of residential land values. The reduced land cost can make housing projects more affordable in the City when coupled with density . bonus provisions established under State law and shared parking arrangements with commercial portions of a mixed-use projects. The price of land, cost for parking, and the cost per unit can be reduced under a mixed-use residential development program. A key element of the proposed program is envisioned as a vertical overlay zone for the commercial highway corridors utilizing existing zoning as the base zone designation with the potential to provide residential development pursuant to the R-3 zone requirements. The implementation involves the following: 1. A comprehensive inventory of potential mixed-use development sites; Tle, City will prepare mixed-use developmentstandards and development guidelines. incorporating R-3 residential density with the ability to utilize 25% density bonuses and relaxed parking requirements pursuant to State guidelines; 3. The City of Hermosa Beach Zoning Ordinance and General Plan will be amended to permit mixed-use development; 4. The City will initiate an outreach program to publicize the program to project developers as required; and, City of Hermosa Beach Page 4-8 Draft Housing Element Section 4.0 Housing Plan 5.. The City will undertake the implementation of the program to satisfy the City's unmet affordable housing need over smaller scatter site residential projects with retail frontage, surface parking, and housing. This program provides for bonuses and other incentives in the City's Zoning Ordinance, as required under the Government Code, to developers who construct projects containing affordable units. This program will also be useful in providing new market -rate and senior housing. According to the State guidelines, affordable units are defined as follows: 1. A "for -sale" unit is considered affordable to a lower-income household if the total monthly payment (rent or mortgage) does not exceed 35% of the monthly income of the household with a monthly income equal to 80% of the County median income. (The affordability thresholds are defined by the Department of Housing and Urban Development.) 2. A new rental unit is considered affordable to a lower-income family if the total housing cost (including rent and utilities) does not exceed 30% of 60% of the median monthly income for a family. 3. An existing rental unit is considered affordable if the total housing cost, including rent and utilities, does not exceed the prevailing fair -market rent published by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. New residential development meeting the above requirements may request that the City grant an incentive (with a value equivalent to a 25% density bonus) and/or regulatory concession or incentives. Within 90 days of receiving a request for such an incentive, the City Council is required to conduct a public hearing on the request. Following the hearing, the City Council may grant such incentives as long as the density bonus is appropriate and consistent with the General Plan and the Zoning Code. 4.3.2 Housing Sites Identification The City will continue to maintain and update its :comprehensive land. use database. This database. provides 'zoning and other information for every parcel in the City, and includes information regarding underdeveloped and undeveloped land in the City. This effort also provides for a detailed examination of a site presently occupied by the Marineland Mobile Home Park, located at 531 Pier Avenue. In 1999, the City rejected a request by the property owner to reconfigure the mobile home park lines that would have resulted, in the elimination of a number of existing units. The Applicant was seeking a "re -alignment of the trailer lots to accommodate the larger double -wide units." Through this review process, the City underscored its commitment in maintaining the existing configuration of the mobile home park, recognizing its value in providing more affordable housing units than what would otherwise be likely. City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Section 4.0 Housing Plan In addition, there is land within the mobile home park that may be available for new residential development. The site would require some grading to make the site suitable for development. This program provides for City staff to consider and, if possible, work with, the current property owner to expand the mobile home leases within the park. 4.3.3 Second Unit Program Those portions of the City that are presently zoned R-2 and R-3 typically contain parcels too small to accommodate second units. As a result, the provisions for a second unit apply to the R-1 single- family zone. The current second -unit ordinance provides for a second unit on lots of at least 8,000 square feet, with a grating of a conditional use permit. The current code provides for the occupancy of a second unit to one or two adults who are 60 years of age or older. In addition, the maximum permitted floor area for the second unit is 640 square feet. Finally, the existing residence in which the second unit is to be located must conform to the City's parking code. The City also requires that a deed restriction on the second unit, restricting its occupancy to one or two individuals who are 60 years of age or older. This program provides for the review of the current adopted second unit ordinance to ensure that it is in conformance with State law. Following any requisite modifications, the City will prepare a brochure outlining the ordinance requirements and any requisite development standards. 4.3.4' Code Enforcement Program The primary goal of the City of Hermosa Beach's Property Maintenance Ordinance is to enhance public health, safety, and welfare through the expeditious implementation of an effective code enforcement program. To ensurethat this goal is achieved, the Code Enforcement Program emphasizes the following: 1. The City actively pursues Municipal Code violations on a complaint basis, with particular emphasis being placed on those areas clearly exposed to public view; 2. All necessary steps are taken to ensure that violations are corrected in an expeditious and voluntary manner 3. The City utilizes misdemeanor criminal prosecution only when attempts to gain voluntary compliance have failed; and, 4. When necessary, the City prosecutes Code violations as misdemeanor criminal complaints. The Code Enforcement Program is responsible for enforcing those sections of the Municipal Code related to property maintenance, including zoning, property maintenance, illegal units, trash container regulations, and sign regulations. The Code Enforcement Officer assists and makes recommendations to other City departments, such as conducting inspections of business license and home occupation offenses. The most frequent violations for residential development are referred to the Code Enforcement Officer and include the following: trash containers in public view, City of Hermosa Beach Page 4-10 Draft Housing Element Section 4.0 Housing Plan illegal units, right-of-way obstruction, property maintenance, home occupation offenses, illegal structures, and construction without permits. 4.3.5 Developer Consultation Program This program promotes consultation with developers to assist in expanding housing opportunities in order to aid in the development of affordable housing. This early consultation will also provide developers with information needed to assist them in applying for funding to develop affordable and assisted housing. This program is an integral component of the Housing Development Incentive Program, the Second Unit Program, and the Identification of Available Sites. While the City has limited financial and land resources, as a public agency it does have the ability to assist the private market in identifying other resources that may be available. 4.3.6 Environmental Review (CEQA) Program The City shall continue to evaluate the environmental impacts of new development and provide mitigation measures prior to development approval, as required by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Environmental review shall be provided for major projects and those that will have a potential to adversely impact the environment. In compliance with CEQA, the City shall also assign responsibilities for the verification of the implementation of mitigation measures. 4.3.7 Fair Housing Program The City will continue to contract with Fair Housing organizations to process complaints regarding housing discrimination within the City and to provide counseling in landlord/tenant disputes. This program involves the creation of a referral service in City Hall whereby a staff person would be provided materials (handouts, booklets, pamphlets, etc.) for distribution. This information would also be made available to the public at the library and at City Hall. 4.3.8 Zoning Conformity Program This program provides for an ongoing review of the City of Hermosa Beach Zoning 'Code' and Zoning Map to ensure that it fulfills the intent of the City's General Plan. The zoning ordinance is reviewed on an annual basis as a means to identify those provisions that should be updated to address local issues to conform to State regulations. 4.3.9 Housing Program Implementation Matrix Table 4-2 indicates the Agency or department responsible for overseeing the administration and/or implementation of the aforementioned programs. Table 4-2 also indicates the funding source for the program, the schedule for the program's implementation, and finally, where appropriate, the number of units that will be assisted through the implementation of the housing program.

The City is bounded by the City of Manhattan Beach on the north, the cities of Lawndale and Hawthorne on the east, and the Pacific Ocean on the west.5-" Exhibit 1-1 provided in the Housing Element shows the location of the City of Hermosa Beach in a regional context. A map of the City is provided in Exhibit 1-2. 1.2 Description of the Proposed Action The proposed action subject to the environmental review outlined in this Initial Study involves the updating of the City of Hermosa Beach Housing Element. The Housing Element is one of the seven mandatory elements required by state law for inclusion into local general plans. The Housing Element by itself will not result in any new development or attendant environmental effects. The Element will serve as a guide for the provision of opportunities for new housing pursuant to City and state housing policy. The State of California mandates that local governments prepare and maintain housing elements to identify strategies to conserve, rehabilitate, and construct housing to meet existing and projected needs for the community. Specific guidance concerning the scope and content of housing elements has been established by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), the agency that has the designated responsibility for reviewing and certifying housing elements prepared by local governments. The State of California Planning, Zoning, and Development Laws identify those issues that must be addressed, and recommend programs that will be effective in improving the condition of existing housing and the construction of new housing to enable local governments to meet the housing needs of all segments of the community. To monitor compliance with these requirements and the State's overall housing policies, all housing elements must be reviewed by HCD prior to and following their adoption. This Draft Housing Element consists of the following components: . The. Introduction provides an. overview of the. Element and describes the statutory authority related to its implementation 2. The Profile Report describes various characteristics germane to housing and includes a discussion of the City's housing, socioeconomic, and employment characteristics. This section also includes a discussion of constraints that may affect residential development. 3. The Housing Projections and Needssection indicates the new housing objectives that have been developed for the City by SCAG and describes the City's ability in meeting the projected demand. 5-1) United States Geological Survey. El Segundo 71/2 -Minute Quadrangle. Photo revised 1981. City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 Draft Housing Element Initial Study 4. The Housing Plan section describes those policies and programs that will be adopted as part of this Housing Element. This section also indicates those Citywide goals and programs designed to conserve and maintain existing housing in the City and to promote new housing. The proposed Housing Element will not directly result in any physical changes to the environment. The Element, however, will promote -new housing development consistent with local and state housing policy. According to CEQA, an Initial Study and/or EIR must assess the entire action, even if the action's "physical" impacts on the environment are indirect and distinct from the any physical environmental change. To provide a meaningful assessment, this Initial Study considers the number of housing units contemplated in the Element's objectives (refer to Table 1-1 in the Draft Housing Element for a discussion of these objectives). The RHNA allocation for the City developed by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG). Table 1-1 Summary of RHNA Housing Element Objectives Component No. of Units Projected Growth in Households (2005 - 1998) 185 Vacancy Need (to alleviate housing demand) -4 Replacement Need (to replace demolished units) 152 Total Future Projected Housing Need (1998 - 2005) 332 Source: Southern California Association of Governments, 2000. In addition to the housing unit objectives identified in Table 1-1, SCAG identified the City's housing need by income groups, as shown in Table 1-2. Table 1-2 ruture kru' w nousing uojectives Dy income Group Household Income Category No. of Units % of Units • Very low income (50% of the. County median household income) •; - ,• 55; 17% Low income (80% of the County median household income) 42 13% Moderate income (80% to 120% of the median household income) 61 18% High income (over 120% of the County median household income) 174 52% Total Future Projected Housing Need (1998 - 2005) 332 100% Sources: Southern California Association of Governments, 2000; City of Hermosa Beach The planning period subject to this Housing Element update extends from 1997 to 2005. The 332 new housing units called for in the RHNA should be theoretically added during this period to accommodate the projected demand. Since 1997, there have been 167 new units have been constructed, leaving a net "unmet" need of 165 housing units. For purposes of the analysis herein, City of Hermosa Beach Page 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 Draft Housing Element Initial Study the demand -driven (traffic, utilities, etc.) impacts of these 165 additional units identified in the RHNA allocation are considered herein to provide a "worst-case" assessment. 1.3 New Housing Programs The programs included in the Draft Housing Element focus on those incentives that will encourage the private sector to construct affordable housing in the City. As indicated previously, the City's RHNA allocation calls for the construction of 332 housing units by the year 2005. Of this total, 167 units have been constructed, leaving an overall unmet need for 165 housing units. Given the rate of development that has occurred during the planning period to date, it is likely that the City will be able to achieve its remaining need overall. The City's difficulty in achieving the RHNA involves the provision of 55 units for very -low-income households, 42 units for low-income households, and 61 housing units for moderate -income households. The lack of available programs and resources to fund and/or subsidize affordable housing, coupled with the high land and development costs, is a constraint to the development of affordable housing. As a result, the focus of the following programs are to identify strategies to assist the private market in the development of this affordable housing. These programs include: 1. An affordable housing incentive program that .provides a density bonus for new development that sets aside a specified portion of the for -sale and/or rental units for very- low- and low-income households. 2. A second unit ordinance program that involves the continued implementation of the City's (granny flat) ordinance as a means to provide more affordable housing opportunities. 3. A mixed-use ordinance that would permit mixed-use developments whereby residential units would be constructed within the same structure or parcel of commercial development. The cost of the residential units would be offset by other development entitlements granted for the commercial uses. 4. The Draft Housing Element includes a program that calls for the identification of suitable sites where new residential development may occur, as part of the proposed mixed-use development ordinance and other sites. The programs included in the Draft Housing Element also promote the maintenance of the existing housing stock, the protection of the existing residential neighborhoods from the intrusion of incompatible land uses, and programs designed to address housing discrimination. 1.4 Discretionary Actions A discretionary project refers to a project or action that requires an exercise in judgment or deliberation when the public agency or body decides to approve or disapprove a particular activity, as distinguished from situations when the action is ministerial in nature. As part of the proposed project's implementation, the City will consider the following discretionary approvals: the adoption of the Housing Element; and, the approval of the Negative Declaration pursuant to CEQA. City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Initial Study 2.0 Environmental Analysis 2.1 Scope of Analysis This section of the Initial Study for the Draft Hermosa Beach Housing Element analyzes the potential environmental impacts that may result from the adoption and subsequent implementation of the Draft Housing Element. The issue areas evaluated in this Initial Study include the following: land use and development; population and housing; earth and geology; water and hydrology; air quality; biological resources; energy and mineral resources; risk ofupset and human health; noise; public services; utilities; aesthetics; cultural resources; recreation; and transportation and circulation. Under each issue area, a description of the thresholds ofsignificance is provided. These thresholds assist the City in making a determination as to whether there is a potential for significant or adverse changes to the environment. For the evaluation of potential impacts, the questions in the Initial Study Checklist are stated, and an answer is provided according to the analysis undertaken as part of the Initial Study's preparation. The Initial Study Checklist is provided in Appendix A. To each question, there are four possible responses: 1. No Impact. The Draft Housing Element will not lead to actions and/or development that will have a measurable environmental impact on the environment, and no further analysis is required. 2. Less Than Significant Impact. The Draft Housing Element may have the potential for impacting the environment, although these impacts are likely to be below levels or thresholds that the City of Hermosa Beach or other responsible agencies consider to be significant. 3. Potentially Significant Impact. The Draft Housing Element may have the potential to generate effects that the City of Hermosa Beach considers to represent a significant impact on the environment. However, mitigation measures that will be effective in reducing impacts to levels that are less than significant have been recommended. .. SignificantAdverselmpact. The Draft Housing Element: may, oris known to, represent impacts that are considered significant, and additional analysis, is required to identify mitigation measures. The City, through the preparation of this Initial Study, determined that no significant adverse unmitigable impacts would occur as a result of the Draft Housing Element update's adoption and subsequent implementation. An explanation of the response is provided for each issue evaluated. The sources of information used in the analysis are identified using footnotes. City of Hermosa Beach Page 4 Draft Housing Element Initial Study 2.2 Land Use and Development Impacts According to the City of Hermosa Beach, acting as Lead Agency, an action or project may be deemed to have a significant impact on land use and development if it results in any of the following: 1. The disruption or cjivision of the physical arrangement of an established community; 2. A conflict with an applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of the agency with jurisdiction over the project; 3. A conflict with any applicable conservation plan or natural community conservation plan; 4. The conversion of prime farmland, unique farmland, or farmland of statewide importance; 5. A conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract; or 6. Changes to the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, may result in the conversion of farmland to non-agricultural uses. A. Would the project physically divide an established community ? Less than Significant Impact The Draft Housing Element will not result in any significant changes to the adopted land use policy or the existing Land Use Plan provided in the Land Use Element. Other revisions to the Draft Housing Element focus on technical data and other information required pursuant to State law and minor revisions to the adopted Housing Element policy. As indicated previously, the RHNA housing objectives developed for the City by SLAG total 332 housing units. The remaining "unmet" need is 165 housing units. The Draft Housing Element indicates the sites that are presently vacant or underutilized that are available for new housing development. The candidate sites include vacant parcels, underutilized parcels, and areas of the City that may be suitable for mixed use. As indicated in the Element, suitable sites, are available for meeting, theexisting unmet need for 165 units. B. Would the project conflict with an applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction overthe project (including but not limited to, a general plan, specific plan, local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? Less Than Significant Impact, There are several existing environmental plans that are applicable to the City, including the Regional Comprehensive Plan, the Congestion Management Plan, and the Air Quality Management Plan. The applicability of these plans is discussed under their respective issue areas (Air Quality, Traffic and Circulation, etc.). As indicated previously, the Draft Housing Element will not result in any substantive changes to existing Housing Element policy. While additional programs have been added, these new programs will further adopted Housing Policy. Only the Land Use Element will require revision to accommodate the proposed Mixed Use program. The development arising as City of Hermosa Beach Page 5 Draft Housing Element Initial Study part of the Housing Element's implementation will undergo review at such time that the development is proposed. As a result, no significant adverse impacts on adopted environmental plans are anticipated. C. Will the project conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan? No Impact. No natural, undeveloped areas are located within the City or in the immediate area of the potential sites for new development. In addition, there are no areas within the vicinity of the proposed development sites, identified as candidate housing development sites (refer to Table 3-6 in Section 3.0), that are subject to habitat conservation plans. As a result, no impacts on habitat conservation plans will occur with the adoption of the Draft Housing Element and its subsequent implementation.54) D. Would the project convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance, as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farm/and Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use? No Impact No agricultural activities are located within the City. The City of Hermosa Beach General Plan does not include any agricultural land use designation. No lands within the City are designated as Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance.5-5> As a result, the residential development contemplated as part of the Draft Housing Element's implementation will not impact any land so designated or other uses related to agricultural production. As a result, no impacts on these soil resources will result from the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation. E Would the project conflict with existing. zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract? No Impact. No agricultural activities are located within the City, nor does the City of Hermosa Beach General Plan include any agricultural land use designation.5-6> No parcels located within the City are under a Williamson Act contract As a result, no impacts on existing Williamson Act contracts will result from the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation. Would the project involve other changes in the existing environment that, due to their location or nature, may result in conversion of farmland to non-agricultural use? No Impact No agricultural activities or farmland uses are located within the City, nor does the City of Hermosa Beach General Plan contain any agricultural land use designation.5-8) The Draft Housing Element's implementation will not result in the conversion of any existing farmland to urban uses, since there 5.4) Blodgett/Baylosis Associates.

Williamson Act provides for a reduction in property tax rates if the subject of the tax is in agricultural production. 5.8) The General Plan contains a Public Facilities/Open Space designation that applies to utility easements. City of Hermosa Beach Page 6 Draft Housing Element Initial Study are no sites in the City in agricultural use. As a result, no farmland conversion impacts will result from the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation. 2.3 Population and Housing Impacts According to the City of Hermosa Beach, acting as Lead Agency, an action or project may be deemed to have a significant impact on housing and population if it results in any of the following: 1. A substantial growth in the population within an area, either directly or indirectly related to a project; 2. The displacement of a substantial number of existing housing units, necessitating the construction of replacement housing; or 3. The displacement of substantial numbers of people, necessitating the construction of replacement housing. A. Would the project induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly or indirectly (e.g., through projects in an undeveloped area or extension of major infrastructure)? No Impact. The California Department of Finance (DOF) estimated the City's population in January 2000 to be 19,631 persons. According to the DOF, there are 9,813 housing units located in the City.5-9) The unemployment rate as of February 2000 was 6.5% compared to 5.6% for Los Angeles County for the same period.5-b°) As indicated previously, the housing objectives developed by the City total 165 housing units. According to the City, this number represents the total number of new units that should be added to the City's housing inventory between 1997 and 2005 to meet the existing and projected "unmet" housing need for the City. The additional 165 units will translate into a projected population increase of approximately 436 persons, assuming an average household size of 2.64 persons per unit. Since this increase generally corresponds to SCAG's RHNA projections, no significant adverse impacts will result. B. Would the project displace substantial numbers of existing housing, necessitating the construction of replacement housing' elsewhere ? • No'Impact.;` The Draft Housing Element promotes the development of new housing (165 units). In addition, the Element contains policies and programs designed to discourage the conversion of subsidized housing to market rate units. As a result, no adverse impacts related to existing or potential housing displacement will result from the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation. 5-9) California Department of Finance.

City of Hermosa Beach Page 7 Draft Housing Element Initial Study C. Would the project displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? No Impact. The Draft Housing Element promotes the development of additional new housing (a total of 165 units for the period between 1997 and 2005, as indicated in Section 3.3 of the Draft Housing Element and Table 3-2). While some existing housing units maybe demolished to accommodate the new development, no adverse impacts related to housing displacement will result from the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation. The City's objective is to develop additional new housing to met the "unmet" need. Z4 Earth and Geology Impacts According to the City of Hermosa Beach, acting as Lead Agency, an action or project may be deemed to have a significant adverse environmental impact on the environment if it results in the following: The exposure of people or structures to potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, or death related to fault rupture from a know earthquake fault; 2. Substantial soil erosion resulting in the loss of topsoil; 3. Locating a project within a geologic or soils unit that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the project, potentially resulting in on-site or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse; 4. Locating on an expansive soil creating substantial risks to life or property; or 5. Locating a project on soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative waste water disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of waste water. A. Would the project result in or expose people to potential impacts, including the risk of loss or death involving rupture ofa known earthquake fault, as delineated on the most recent A/quist- Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area, or based on other substantial evidence of a known fault rupture? Less Than Significant Impact Major faults in the region include the Whittier/Elsinore, Norwalk, Newport/Inglewood, Santa Monica, Sierra Madre, Palos Verdes, and San Andreas faults.5-1 According to the Los Angeles County Safety Element, no known or suspected active fault traces pass through or are located near the City. There are no designated. Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zones found within the City.S-,2) The City is, and will continue to be, subject to groundshaking hazards associated with earthquakes in the region. The level of risk within the City is no greater than that anticipated for the region. S-li) Leighton & Associates.

B. Would the project expose people orstructures to potentia/substantia/adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving strong seismic ground shaking or seismic -related ground failure, including liquefaction? Less Than Significant Impact, The City will be subject to the effects of seismic activity from the numerous faults found within the region. The potential adverse effects from these earthquakes may be mitigated by the special building and construction standards contained within the Uniform Building Code (Seismic Zone 4) standards. According to the United States Geological Survey, the City is not unique in terms of ground motion. The City will be subject to a Mercalli intensity of VII, with a postulated earthquake of 8.6 or greater within the Los Angeles basin. This intensity also applies to the surrounding communities. However, the level of impact or risk is no greater than that for other areas within the Southern California region. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. C. Would the project expose people orstructures to potentia/substantia/adverse effects, including substantia/ soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? Less Than Significant Impact, According to the Los Angeles County Safety Element, portions of the City are located within an area subject to a potential liquefaction hazard. More recent studies have been completed by the State of California Division of Mines and Geology's (CDMG) Seismic Hazard Zones Mapping Program. Preliminary maps completed by the CDMG confirm that potential development sites are located within an area subject to potential liquefaction risk.543> The legislature's intent through this mapping program is to provide a statewide seismic hazards mapping and technical advisory program to assist cities and counties in fulfilling their responsibilities for protecting the public health and safety from the effects of strong ground shaking, liquefaction, landslides, or other ground failure and other seismic hazards caused by earthquakes.5-'4) Under the Government Code requirement, cities and counties must require, prior • to the approval of a project located in a seismic hazard zone, a geotechnical report defining and delineating any seismic hazard. If the local jurisdiction finds that no undue hazard of this kind exists, based on information resulting from studies conducted on-site or in the immediate vicinity of the proposed development, the requirement for a geotechnical report may be waived.5-15) The level of impact or risk would be no greater than that for other areas within the Southern California region. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. 5-13) California Division of Mines and Geology.

City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Initial Study D. Would the project expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse effects, including location on a geologic unit or a soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the project, and potentially result in on- or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction, or collapse? Less Than Significant Impact, The topography of the City is generally level, and no steep hillsides are found in the area. Hillside areas are found in selected areas though no significant development constraints are present. According to the Los Angeles County Safety Element, the areas where new residential development may occur are not located within an area subject to a potential landslide hazard.5-,6, More recent studies have been completed by the State of California Division of Mines and Geology's (CDMG) Seismic Hazard Zones Mapping Program, and indicate that the City is not located within an area subject to potential landslide or slope failure risk (the City's topography is generally level, with the exception of selected areas)8-m As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. E Would the project result in or expose people to potential impacts, induding location on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1994), creating substantial risks to life or property? No Impact. The majority of the City is developed and largely covered over with impervious surfaces. According to the United States Department of Agriculture Soil Survey for Los Angeles County, the underlying soils are classified as belonging to the Oceano soils Association. These soils do not represent a significant constraint to development." 8, The on-site soils within the City are not anticipated to represent a significant development constraint, given the nature and extent of development found throughout the City. However, the level of impact or risk is no greater than that for other areas within the Southbay region. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. F. Would the project result in or exposepeople to potential impacts, induding soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of wastewater? No Impact No septic tanks are proposed as part of the implementation of the Draft Housing Element. Sewer connections will be made to any future residential development constructed pursuant to the Draft Housing Element. As a result, no impacts are anticipated on this issue. 516) Leighton & Associates. Los Angeles County Safety Element Technical Appendix. 1990. 5-17) California Division of Mines and Geology.

City of Hermosa Beach Page 10 Draft Housing Element Initial Study G. Would the project result in or expose people to potential impacts, including unique geologic or physical features? No Impact. There are no unique land forms found in the City that would preclude future development anticipated as part of the Draft Housing Element's implementation. The City is situated adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. The soils within the City are limited to the Oceano Association.5-19) These soils are generally well -drained, have a rapid subsoil permeability, and these soils are suitable for development. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. 2.5 Hydrology and Water Impacts According to the City of Hermosa Beach, acting as Lead Agency, a project may be deemed to have a significant adverse environmental impact on water resources or water quality if it results in any of the following: 1. A violation of any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements; 2. A substantial depletion of groundwater supplies or interference with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwater table level; 3. A substantial alteration of the existing drainage pattern of the site or area through the alteration of the course of a stream or river in a manner that would result in substantial erosion or siltation on or off-site; 4. A substantial alteration of the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including the alteration of the course of a stream or river, in a manner that would result in flooding on or off site; 5. The creation or contribution of water runoff that would exceed the capacity of existing or planned storm water drainage systems or the generation of substantial additional sources of polluted runoff; The substantial degradation of water quality 7. The placement of housing within a 100 -year flood hazard area as mapped on a Federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map; 8. The placement of structures within a 100 -year flood hazard areas that would impede or redirect flood flows; or 9. The exposure of a project to inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow. 519) United States Department of Agriculture. Sod Survey of the Los Angeles Area, California. 1969. City of Hermosa Beach Page 11 Draft Housing Element Initial Study A. Wou/d the project violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements? No Impact. Future water consumption will be limited to that typical of residential development, and this consumption will be related to water used for potable consumption, routine maintenance, and landscaping. No industrial wastewater discharges would be associated with the uses anticipated under the Draft Housing Element's implementation. The majority of the potential development sites are currently paved or covered over with impervious surfaces, which could lead to the presence of debris, leaves; soils, oil/grease, and other pollutants being transported into the storm drains on-site.5-20) Given the developed character of the potential development sites, there is likely to be an improvement in the quality of storm water runoff. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significantadverse impacts. B. Would the project substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge in such a way that would cause a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering ofthe local groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate ofa pre-existing nearby well would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been granted)? No Impact. Water supply in the City is derived from local groundwater wells operated and maintained by the water purveyors that serve the City, as well as imported water from the Metropolitan Water District (MWD).5-21) Future residential development arising from the Draft Housing Element's implementation will consume an estimated 49,500 gallons of water on a daily basis. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. C Would the project substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including the alteration of the course ofa stream or river, in a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site? No Impact. The majority of the potential development sites are presently developed and largely covered over with impervious surfaces, including buildings, asphalt roadways, and parking areas. No natural drainage remains within the candidatedevelopment sites to surrounding. developments -2z As a result, no impacts on streams or natural hydrology are anticipated. D. Would the project substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including the alteration ofthe course ofa stream or river, in a manner which would result in flooding on or off site? No Impact. There are no lakes or streams within the City. The majority of the potential development sites have undergone previous development, with the majority of the area being covered by impervious 5.20) Blodgett/Baylosis Associates. Site Survey. 2000. 5.21) City of Hermosa Beach. Public Works Department. 2000. 5-22) Blodgett/Baylosis Associates. Site Survey. 2000. City of Hermosa Beach Page 12 Draft Housing Element Initial Study surfaces (roadways, parking areas, and buildings). No natural stream channels remain within any of the candidate development sites.5-23> The future development, contemplated as part of the Draft Housing Element's implementation will not impact this channel or any existing easements related to this channel. In addition, there will not be a significant increase in the quantity of storm water surface runoff conveyed to the local storm drain system, given the extent of existing impervious surfaces found within each of the proposed development sites. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent -implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. E. Would the project create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned storm water drainage systems or provide substantia/ additional sources of polluted runoff? Less Than Significant Impact, There will not be a significant change in the amount of surface runoff volumes from future development due to the nature and extent of the existing impervious surfaces. There are no water bodies located within those areas where future residential development is contemplated or in the immediate vicinity that would be affected.5-20 The nature and extent of storm water runoff ultimately discharged into the existing storm drain system will not significantly change due to the amount of existing impervious surfaces found within candidate development sites. F. Would the project otherwise substantia//y degrade water quality? No Impact. The majority of the potential development sites are currently paved or covered with impervious surfaces. Future development could lead to the presence of debris, leaves, soils, oil/grease, and other pollutants within the parking areas on-site in the absence of mitigation.5-25> These pollutants may enter the storm drain system during periods of rainfall. Under Section 402 of the Clean Water Act (CWA), all point source discharges of pollutants to waters of the United States (including lakes, rivers, wetlands, etc.) must be issued a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. Most activities disturbing five or more acres, and discharges from larger storm sewer systems, are regulated under the NPDES permit program. NPDES permits issued for point sources must contain measures for ensuring that any discharges meet water quality -based provisions of Section 301 of :the CWA. As aresult,.discharges may:: not contain pollutants at levels that .would cause the. receiving water body to fail in meeting a water quality standard set by the State of California or the. EPA for that water body. In addition, discharges must meet the technology-based requirements of Section 301 of the CWA. Discharges must meet an acceptable level of pollution control for that type of discharge, regardless of whether or not that level of control is specifically needed to protect the water body to which the discharge is directed.5-20 , As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. 5-23) City of Hermosa Beach.

Wou/d the project place housing within a 100 -year flood hazard area as mapped on a Federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map? Less Than Significant Impact The low-lying coastal areas of the City of Hermosa Beach are located within a designated tsunami hazard area as identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.5-27 However, these areas are among the most intensely deveroped area of the City. Measures are underway to install procedures for the evacuation of these areas in the event of a tsunami. No areas are located within a designated FEMA flood plain (Class A or Class B designation). As a result, the proposed action will not result in the introduction of new housing units within a designated flood plain. As a result, the impacts associated with the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation are considered to be"less than significant".. H Wou/d the project place within a 100 -year flood hazard area, structures which wou/d impede or redirect flood flows? Less Than Significant Impact, As indicated previously, a significant portion of the City's coastal areas are located within the designated tsunami hazard area as identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.5-28, No areas are located within a designated FEMA flood plain (Class A or Class B designation). However, future development will not impede or redirect the flows of potential flood water.5-29, As a result, the impacts associated with the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation are considered to be "less than significant". L Would the project expose people or structures to a significant risk of flooding as a result of dam or levee failure? Less Than Significant Impact. The City is not located within an area that may be subject to flows resulting from a dam or levee failure. Measures are underway to install procedures for the evacuation of these areas in the event of a tsunami. As a result, the impacts associated with the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation are considered to be "less than significant". 1 Would the project result in inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow? Less Than Significant Impact, No other reservoirs, lakes, rivers, or streams are located within the City's corporate' boundaries. The site is located adjacent to the Pacific Oceans -3° The coastal areas may be subject to the effects of a tsunami due to their proximity to the ocean. Measures are underway to install procedures for the evacuation of these areas in the event of a tsunami. As a result, the impacts associated with the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation are considered to be "less than significant". 5-27) U. S. Army Corps of Engineers.

City of Hermosa Beach Page 14 Draft Housing Element Initial Study 2.6 Air Quality Impacts According to the City of Hermosa Beach, acting as Lead Agency, an action or project will normally have a significant adverse environmental impact on air quality, if it results in any of the following: 1. The project results in a conflict with, or obstructs the implementation of, the applicable air quality plan; 2. A violation of an air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation; 3. A cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non -attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard; 4. The exposure of sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations; or 5. The creation of objectionable odors. The South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) has also established daily emissions thresholds for a number of criteria pollutants. These thresholds include: 550 pounds of carbon monoxide (CO), 55 pounds of nitrogen oxides (NO.), 150 pounds of sulfur dioxide (SOX), 55 pounds of reactive organic gases (ROG), and 150 pounds of PMio particulates. These thresholds apply to both short-term (construction -related) emissions and long-term (operational) emissions.,) A. Would the project conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? Less Than Significant Impact The City of Hermosa Beach is located within the South Coast Air Basin. The basin covers a 6,600 - square -mile area within Orange County, non -desert portions of Los Angeles County, Riverside County, and San Bernardino County. Air quality in the basin is monitored by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) at various monitoring stations located throughout the area. A monitoring station is located in the City. Readings at this station are used to characterize air quality in the City of Hermosa Beach. The South Coast Air Basin, in general, has not attained national and state standardsfor ozone and suspended particulate matter (PMio) 5-33) The potential short-term air quality impacts associated with future housing development will include construction equipment emissions, vehicle emissions, emissions from power emissions related to demolition activities, generation and dust from excavation, grading, demolition, and debris transport. Potential long-term emissions will result from power consumption (stationary emissions) and vehicles traveling to and from a future development site (mobile emissions). Adoption and implementation of the Draft Housing Element will not result in operational emissions that will exceed SCAQMD thresholds. The projected daily emissions include the following: 154 pounds of carbon monoxide, 1 pound of sulfur dioxide, 18 pounds of nitrogen oxides, 24 pounds 5.31) South Coast Air Quality Management District. CEQA Air Quality Handbook. April 1993. 5-33) Ibid. City of Hermosa Beach Page 15 Draft Housing Element Initial Study of total organic gases, and 2 pounds of PM10. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. B. Would the project violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? Less Than Significant Impact. The potential short-term air quality impacts associated with the residential development include construction equipment emissions, vehicle emissions, emissions from power generation, and dust from demolition, excavation, grading, and debris transport. As indicated previously, the long-term operational impacts, related to both stationary and mobile (vehicle) emissions, will occur following occupancy. The projected daily emissions for the future residential development (165 units) are below the SCAQMD's thresholds that are considered to represent a significant adverse impact.5-34) As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. • C. Would the project result in a cumulatively considerable net increase ofany criteria pollutant for which the project region is in non -attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? Less Than Significant Impact Future residential development associated with the adoption and subsequent implementation of the Draft Housing Element will result in both short-term (construction -related) and long-term (operational) terms. The potential daily emissions associated with the construction and subsequent occupancy of future residential development are discussed herein under Section 2.6.A. As indicated previously, the long-term (operational) emissions will not exceed the SCAQMD's daily thresholds. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. D. Would the project expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? No Impact. Sensitive receptors refer to land uses and/or activities that are especially sensitive to poor air quality. Sensitive receptors typically include homes, schools, playgrounds, hospitals, convalescent homes, and other facilities where children or the elderly may :congregate. No residential development contemplated as part of. the Draft Housing Element's implementation•will` result in intersection impacts that will cause the State's one-hour or eight-hour standards for carbon monoxide to be exceeded. As a result, no significant adverse impacts on sensitive receptors are anticipated. E. Would the project create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people ? No Impact. Future construction activities may involve limited fugitive dust generation, which is consistent with that associated with demolition, grading, and excavation. Diesel equipment will involve limited NO, generation. However, these impacts will cease once the demolition and construction phases have 5-34) South Coast Air Quality Management District. CEQA Air Quality Handbook. April 1993. City of Hermosa Beach Page 16 Draft Housing Element Initial Study been completed. No odors are anticipated once the units are occupied. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. F. Would the project alter air movement, moisture, or temperature, or cause any change in climate? No Impact, The future residential development anticipated as part of the Draft Housing Element's implementation will not involve the construction of structures of sufficient mass or height to cause wind jetting or heat islands. As a result, no impacts related to this issue are anticipated. 2.7 Biological Resources Impacts • According to the City of Hermosa Beach, acting as Lead Agency, an action or project may be deemed to have a significant adverse impact on biological resources if it results in any of the following: 1. A substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; 2. A substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural plant community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; 3. A substantial adverse effect on federally protected wetlands as defined by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means; 4.

C. Would the project create a new source of substantial light or glare that would adverse/y affect day or nighttime views in the area? Less Than Significant Impact, The potential for light and glare will be limited. The greatest potential for spillover lighting affecting light-sensitive residential uses is associated with spillover lighting in parking areas. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. 2.14 Cultural Resources Impacts According to the City of Hermosa Beach, acting as Lead Agency, an action or project will normally have a significant adverse impact on cultural resources if it results in any of the following: 1. The project causes a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as defined in §15064.5; 2. The project causes a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to §15064.5; 3. The project directly or indirectly destroys a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature; or 4. The project disturbs any human remains, including those interred outside of formal cemeteries. A. Would the project cause a substantia/ adverse change in the significance ofa historical resource as defined in §15064.5? No Impact. The Los Angeles County Historical Directory does not record any historic sites within the vicinity of the development sites. No recorded archaeological sites are located in the City.5-S2> There are no prehistoric or historic structures or, objects within 'the candidate sites or within adjacent'. areas. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. B. Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to §15064.5? No Impact Any archaeological resources that may have been present prior to development are not expected to be found within the site due to past disturbance.5-83> The sites are not considered archaeologically sensitive, since no archaeological resources have been uncovered on-site or in the 5-813 Blodgett/Baylosis Associates. Site Survey. 2000. 5-82) Atkinson, Janet. Los Angeles County Historical Directory. 1998. 5-83) Blodgett/Baylosis Associates. Site Survey. 2000. City of Hermosa Beach Page 31 Draft Housing Element Initial Study surrounding area. Limited grading and excavation is likely to be necessary to construct the proposed structures. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. C Would the project directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature? No Impact. The majority of the City has undergone extensive ground disturbance resulting from past and present development. The potential for paleontological resources in the area is considered low because no paleontological resources have been uncovered in the area. Thus, construction of future development is not expected to disturb any paleontological resources on-site. Also, limited grading and excavation are anticipated with any proposed development.5�4) As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. D. Would the project disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of formal cemeteries? No Impact No cemeteries are known to be located within the vicinity of the potential development sites.5.55, As a result, no disturbance of human remains are anticipated. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. E. Would the project have the potential to cause a physical change that would affect unique ethnic cultural values? No Impact. The development sites are privately owned, and none are used for any formal or informal religious use. The sites do not represent a culturally significant landmark to any ethnic group. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. F. Would the project restrict existing religious or sacred uses within the potential impact area? No Impact, No churches are located within the development sites, nor are any such uses contemplated under the City's General Plan. None of the potential development sites (refer to Table 3-6 in Section 3.0 of the Draft Housing Element) are used for religious services. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant, adverse impacts. 5-84) United States Geological Survey. Venice 71/2 Minute Quadrangle. 1994 5-85) Ibid. City of Hermosa Beach Page 32 Draft Housing Element Initial Study 2.15 Recreation Impacts According to the City of Hermosa Beach, acting as Lead Agency, an action or project may be deemed to have a significant adverse impact on the environment if it results in any of the following: The use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated; or, 2. The construction or expansion of recreational facilities, which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment. A. Would the project increase the use ofexisting neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? Less Than Significant Impact, The City presently maintains 15 parks and recreational facilities, with a total land area of 39.5 acres.5-86> Future residential development may result in direct impacts on recreational facilities in the area. However, the potential park impacts will be offset by the payment of park fees or in -lieu dedications. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. B. Would the project affect existing recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? No Impact, Implementation of the Draft Housing Element will not physically affect parks and recreational facilities in the City. None of the candidate sites serves or provides a sanctioned recreational use for the public. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. 2.16 Transportation and Traffic Impacts : Draft Housing Element Initial Study 3. An increase in hazards due to design features (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment); 4. Inadequate emergency access; 5. Inadequate parking capacity; or 6. A conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks). A. Would the project cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system (i.e., result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the volume to capacity ratio o on roads, or congestion at intersections)? Less Than Significant Impact The addition of 165 housing units will result in an additional 1,576 vehicle trips on a daily basis. Of this total traffic generation, 122 trips will be generated during the morning (AM) peak hour and 167 trips during the evening (PM) peak hours. These trips will be distributed throughout the City, and the level of service of individual intersections will not be significantly affected. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. B. Would the project exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of service standard establishment by the County congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? Less Than Significant Impact The addition of 165 housing units will result in an additional 1,576 vehicle trips on a daily basis. Of this total traffic generation, 122 trips will be generated during the morning (AM) peak hour and 167 trips during the evening (PM) peak hours. These trips will be distributed throughout the City. As a result, the level of service of individual intersections will not be significantly affected. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. C. Would the project substantially increase hazards due to the design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? No Impact The adoption and subsequent implementation of the Draft Housing Element would not result in any revisions to the City's Circulation Element. The potential design changes to area roadways will largely be limited to curb cuts. For larger residential projects, the City will require that traffic studies be prepared to evaluate potential traffic and circulation impacts. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. D. Would the project result in inadequate emergency access? No Impact The development sites that may accommodate the projected new housing need of 165 units are located near arterial roadways that serve as emergency evacuation routes. The development of City of Hermosa Beach Page 34 Draft Housing Element Initial Study these sites contemplated under the implementation of the Draft Housing Element may involve limited disruption of the roadways for utility connections. However, at no time will any of these arterial roadways, or any other designated emergency evacuation routes, be closed to traffic due to future construction activities within the project site. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. E Would the project result in inadequate parking capacity? No Impact Future residential development anticipated as part of the Draft Housing Element's implementation will be required to conform to the City's parking standards. No on -street parking overflow is expected as a result, of future residential development. Any new residential development will be required to conform to the City's parking standards. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. F Wou/d the project conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks)? No Impact The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) maintains an extensive network of bus routes throughout Los Angeles County, and is the primary service provider in the City of Hermosa Beach area. Any existing bus stops will not be removed as part of the proposed development contemplated as part of the Housing Element's implementation. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts on adopted policies related to public or alternative transit. G. Would the project resultin waterborne or air traffic impacts? No Impact The nearest port or harbor to the City is located in the Los Angeles — San Pedro — Long Beach harbor complex located approximately 4.5 miles from the City. There are no railroads or terminals located within the City that would be impacted by the potential residential development's construction and subsequent operation. Future residential development contemplated as part of the Draft Housing Element's implementation will not impact the operations of this railroad. As indicated previously, there are no public airports or private airstrips located within 2 miles of the City (LAX is located approximately 4.5 miles to the northwest). The proposed uses contemplated as partof the Draft Housing Element's iimplementation will not impact these airport, port, or other major transportation facilities. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. H. Would the project result in hazards or barriers for pedestrians or bicyclists? No Impact, Future development contemplated as part of the Draft Housing Element's implementation will not impact existing crosswalks in the City. The potential design, changes to area roadways will largely be limited to curb cuts. For larger residential projects, the City will require that traffic studies be prepared to evaluate potential traffic and circulation impacts. As a result, the Draft Housing Element's adoption and subsequent implementation will not result in any significant adverse impacts. • City of Hermosa Beach Page 35 Draft Housing Element Initial Study 3.0 Findings This Initial Study prepared for the Draft Housing Element indicates that the proposed Element's adoption and subsequent implementation is not expected to have significant adverse environmental impacts, upon implementation of the mitigation measures recommended herein. The following mandatory findings of significance can be made as set forth in Section 15065 of the CEQA Guidelines, as amended, based on the results of this environmental analysis: 1. The Draft Housing Element will not have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment; 2. The Draft Housing Element will not have the potential to achieve short-term goals to the disadvantage of long-term environmental goals; 3. The Draft Housing Element will not have impacts that are individually limited but cumulatively considerable when considering planned or proposed development in the City; and, 4. The Draft Housing Element will not have environmental effects that will adversely affect humans, either directly or indirectly..

This review, in turn, will enable the City staff to determine the appropriateness of the existing housing policy in meeting existing and projected housing needs. Finally, this Report is designed to assist in the development of new policies and programs should it be determined that new policy direction is warranted. This Report consists of following sections: ❑ The Introduction provides an overview of the Report's components and insight into its use as a tool to review and, if appropriate, revise housing policy; ❑ The Existing Goals, Policies, and Programs describes those policies and objectives included in the City's existing adopted Housing Element; and ❑ The project team's Recommended Policies and Programs are outlined in the concluding section. This section indicates those policies that have been reclaimed, revised, or discarded. As required by Section 65583(c) of the Government Code, actions and policies included in the housing program must address five key issue areas. As a result, the policies that are recommended for inclusion in the Housing Element are discussed according to the following five issue areas: ❑ The conservation of the existing stock of affordable housing. ❑ Assistance in the development of affordable housing. ❑ The provision of adequate sites to achieve a variety and diversity of housing. ❑ The removal of governmental constraints as necessary. ❑ The promotion of equal housing opportunities. City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Policies Report 2.0 Existing Goals, Policies, and Programs 2.1 Existing Housing Element Objectives This section indicates the objectives that are contained in the existing adopted Housing Element. The wording of the objectives reflect the verbatim language included in the aforementioned Housing Element. 1. To encourage the maintenance and improvement of the existing housing stock within the City. 2. To facilitate the preservation and enhancement of the housing supply for senior citizens. 3. To prevent and abate the existence of illegal "bootleg" units, as they represent substandard and potentially unsafe housing or usage in conflict with zoning and/or general plan standards. To protect from conversion the existing lower-cost rental housing stock represented by apartments found in structures having three to nine units. To promote and encourage the conservation of existing neighborhoods (where appropriate). 6 To maintain and improve the existing stock of residences in sound condition through the use of available regulatory powers and financial incentives. 7. To maintain adequate levels of public - services to existing neighborhoods and the maintenance of public property. 8. To establish actions that would result in the improvement of the maximum feasible number of units in need of major repairs. To . encourage the replacement, of the maximum number- of housing units that are in. dilapidated condition. 10. To evaluate new development proposals in light of the community's environmental resources and values, and capacity of the public infrastructure within the scope of environmental constraints, housing demand, and projected share of regional housing needs. 11. To allow for innovative methods of construction and land use to conserve energy and enhance livability. 12. To promote the development of varied forms of family housing. Page 2 City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Policies Report 13. To ensure that new housing is provided with adequate open space, utility facilities, parking, and essential community services. 14. To promote energy-efficient development of varied forms of .housing. 15. To examine regulations promoting alternate heating and cooling systems. 16.

Page 6 City of Hermosa Beach Draft Housing Element Policies Report 3.0 Recommended Policies and Programs This section provides an overview of.the existing Housing Element policies and the project team's recommendations regarding their revision. The existing and recommended policies are arranged according to the five major topical areas that were first discussed in Section 1.0. These five issue areas include the following: 1. Issue Area No. 1. The conservation of existing affordable housing; 2. Issue Area No. 2. The City's strategy in assisting in the development of affordable housing; 3. Issue Area No. 3.

This review, in turn, will enable the City staff to determine the appropriateness of the. existing housing policy in meeting existing and projected housing needs. Finally, this Workbook is designed to assist in the development of new policies and programs should it be determined that new policy direction is warranted. This workbook consists of following key components: ❑ The Introduction provides an overview of the Workbook's components and insight into its use as a tool to review and, if appropriate, develop housing policy; ❑ The Existing Policies and Programs describes those components included in the City's existing adopted Housing Element; and ❑ The project team's Recommended Policies and Programs are outlined in the concluding section. As required by Section 65583(c) of the Government Code, actions and policies included in the housing program must address five key issue areas. As a result, the policies and programs that are to be included in the Housing Element update will correspond to the following issue areas: ❑ Conserving existing stock of affordable housing. ❑ Assisting in development of affordable housing. ❑ Providing adequate sites to achieve a variety and diversity of housing. ❑ Removing governmental constraints as necessary. ❑ Promoting equal housing opportunities.

"] Prompt Payment City of Hermosa Beach ensures that the following clauses or equivalent will be included in each DOT assisted prime contract: City of Hermosa Beach Satisfactory Performance The prime contractor agrees to pay each subcontractor under this prime contract for satisfactory performance of its contract no later than 10 days from the receipt of each payment the prime contractor receives from the City of Hermosa Beach. Any delay or postponement of payment from the above referenced time frame may occur only for good cause following written approval of the City of Hermosa Beach. This clause applies to both DBE and non -DBE subcontractors Release of Retainage The prime contractor agrees further to release retainage payments to each subcontractor within 30 days after the subcontractor's work is satisfactorily completed. Any delay or postponement of payment from the above referenced time frame may occur only for good cause following written approval of the City of Hermosa Beach. This clause applies to both DBE and non -DBE subcontractors. • XIII Monitoring and Enforcement Mechanisms 026.37) The City of Hermosa Beach will assign a Resident Engineer (RE) or Contract Manager to monitor and track actual DBE participation through contractor and subcontractor reports of payments in accordance with the following: After Contract Award After the contract award the City of Hermosa Beach will review the award documents for the portion of items each DBE and first tier subcontractor will be performing and the dollar value of that work. With these documents the RE/Contract Manager will be able to determine the work to be performed by the DBEs or subcontractors listed. Preconstruction Conference A preconstruction conference will be scheduled between the RE and the contractor or their representative to discuss the work each DBE subcontractor will perform. Before work can begin on a subcontract, the local agency will require the contractor to submit a completed "Subcontracting Request," Exhibit 16-B of the LAM or equivalent. When the RE receives the completed form it will be checked for agreement of the first tier subcontractors and DBEs. The. RE will not approve the request when it identifies someone otherthan the DBE or first tier subcontractor listed in the previously completed "Local Agency Bidder DBE Information," Exhibit 15-G. The "Subcontracting Request" will not be approved until any discrepancies are resolved. If an issue cannot be resolved at that time, or there is some other concern, the RE will require the contractor to eliminate the subcontractor in question before signing the subcontracting request. A change in the DBE or first tier subcontractor may be addressed during a substitution process at a later date. Suppliers, vendors, or manufacturers listed on the "Local Agency Bidder DBE Information" will be compared to those listed in the completed Exhibit 16-I of the LAPM or equivalent. Differences must be resolved by either making corrections or requesting a substitution. Substitutions will be subject to the Subletting and Subcontracting Fair Practices Act :(FPA). Local agencies will require contractors to adhere to the provisions within Subletting :and Subcontracting Fair Practices Act (State Law) Sections 4100-4144. FPA requires the contractor to list all subcontractors in excess of one half of one percent (0.5%) of the contractor's total bid or $10,000, whichever is greater. The statute is designed to prevent bid shopping by contractors. The FPA explains that a contractor may not substitute a subcontractor listed in the original bid except with the approval of the awarding authority. The RE will give the contractor a blank Exhibit 17-F, "Final Report Utilization of Disadvantaged Business Enterprises, First Tier Subcontractors" and will explain to them that the document will be required at the end of the project, for which payment.can be withheld, in conformance with the contract. Construction Contract Monitoring The RE will ensure that the RE's staff (inspectors) know what items of work each DBE is responsible for performing. Inspectors will notify the RE immediately of apparent violations. When a firm other than the listed DBE subcontractor is found performing the work, the RE will notify the contractor of the apparent discrepancy and potential loss of payment. Based on the contractor's response, the RE will take appropriate action: The DBE Liaison Officer will perform a preliminary investigation to identify any potential issues related to the DBE subcontractor performing a commercially useful function. Any substantive issues will be forwarded to the Caltrans Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program. If the contractor fails to adequately explain why there is a discrepancy, payment for the work will be withheld and a letter will be sent to the contractor referencing the applicable specification violation and the required withholding of payment. If the contract requires the submittal of a monthly truck document, the contractor will be required to submit documentation to the RE showing the owner's name; California Highway Patrol CA number; and the DBE certification number of the owner of the truck for each truck used during that month for which DBE participation will be claimed. The trucks will be listed by California Highway Patrol CA number in the daily diary or on a separate piece of paper for documentation. The numbers are checked by inspectors regularly to confirm compliance. Providing evidence of DBE payment is the responsibili of the contractor. City of Hermosa Beach Substitution When a DBE substitution is requested, the RE/Contract Manager will request a letter from the contractor explaining why substitution is needed. The RE/Contract Manager must review the letter to be sure names and addresses are shown, dollar values are included, and reason for the request is explained. If the RE/Contract Manager agrees to the substitution, the RE/Contract Manager will notify, in writing, the DBE subcontractor regarding the proposed substitution and procedure for written objection from the DBE subcontractor in accordance with the Subletting and Subcontracting Fair Practices Act. If the contractor is not meeting the contract goal with this substitution, the contractor must provide the required good faith effort to the RE/Contract Manager for local agency consideration. If there is any doubt in the. RE/Contract Manager's mind regarding the requested substitution, the RE/Contract Manager may contact the DLAE for assistance and direction. Record Keeping and Final Report Utilization of Disadvantaged Business Enterprises The contractor shall maintain records showing the name and address of each first-tier subcontractor. The records shall also show: 1. The name and business address, regardless of tier, of every DBE subcontractor, DBE vendor of materials and DBE trucking company. 2. The date of payment and the total dollar figure paid to each of the firms. 3. The DBE prime contractor shall also show the date of work performed by their own forces along with the corresponding dollar value of the work claimed toward DBE goals. When a contract has been completed the contractor will provide a summary of the records stated above. The DBE utilization information will be documented on Exhibit 17-F and will be submitted to the DLAE attached to the Report of Expenditures. The RE will compare the completed Exhibit 17-F to the contractor's completed Exhibit 15-G and, if applicable, to the completed Exhibit 16-B. The DBEs shown on the completed Exhibit 17-F should be the same as those originally listed unless an authorized substitution was allowed, or the contractor used more DBEs and they were added. The dollar amount should reflect any changes made in planned work done by the DBE. The contractor will be required to explain in writing why the names of the subcontractors, the work items or dollar figures are different from what was originally shown on the completed Exhibit 15-G when: • There have been no changes made by the RE. • The contractor has not provided a sufficient explanation in the comments section of the completed Exhibit 17-F. The explanation will be attached to the completed Exhibit 17-F for submittal. The RE will file this in the project records. City of Hermosa Beach The local agency's Liaison Officer will keep track of the DBE certification status on the Internet at www. dot. ca.gov/hq/bep and keep the RE informed of changes that affect the contract. The RE will require the contractor to act in accordance with existing contractual commitments regardless of decertification. The DLAE will use the PS&E checklist to monitor the City of Hermosa Beach's commitment to require bidders list information to be submitted to the City of Hermosa Beach from the awarded prime and subcontractors as a means to develop a bidders list. This monitoring will only take place if the bidders list information is required to be submitted as stipulated in the special provisions. City of Hermosa Beach will bring to the attention of the DOT through the DLAE any false, fraudulent, or dishonest conduct in connection with the program, so that DOT can take the steps (e.g., referral to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution, referral to the DOT Inspector General, action under suspension and debarment or Program Fraud and Civil Penalties rules) provided in §26.109. City of Hermosa Beachalso will consider similar action under our own legal authorities, including responsibility determinations in future contracts. XIV Overall Goals (§26.45) Amount of Goal City of Hermosa Beach's overall goal for the Federal fiscal year FY 2000-2001 (FY 2001 or later) is the following: 9% of the Federal financial assistance hi FHWA-assisted contracts. This overall goal is broken down into 4%race-conscious and 5%race-neutral components. Methodology For Federal fiscal year FY 2000-2001, see Attachment B. Process Starting with the Federal fiscal year 2002, the amount of overall goal, the method to calculate the goal, and the breakout of estimated race -neutral and race -conscious participation will be required annually by June .1 in advance of the Federal fiscal year beginning October 1 for FHWA-assisted .contracts. Submittals will be to the Caltrans' DLAE. An exception to this will be if FTA or FAA recipients are required by FTA or FAA to submit the annual information to them or a designee by another date. FHWA recipients will follow this process: Once the DLAE has responded with preliminary comments and the comments have been incorporated into the draft overall goal information, the City of Hermosa Beach will publish a notice of the proposed overall goal, informing the public that the proposed goal and its rationale are available for inspection during normal business hours at the. City of Hermosa Beach's' principal office for 30 days following the date of the notice, and informing the public that comments will be accepted on the goals for 45 days following the date of the notice. Advertisements in newspapers, minority focus media, trade publications, City of Hermosa Beach and websites will be the normal media to accomplish this effort. The notice will include addresses to which comments may be sent and addresses (including offices and websites) where the proposal may be reviewed. The overall goal resubmission to the Caltrans DLAE, will include a summary : of information and comments received during this public participation process and City of Hermosa Beach's responses. This will be due by September '1 to the Caltrans DLAE. The DLAE will have a month to make a final review so the City of Hermosa Beach may begin using the overall goal on October 1 of each year. If there is a design build please refer. to Appendix B of this Model DBE Program. XV Contract Goals 026:51) City of Hermosa Beach will use contract goals to meet any portion of the overall goal City of Hermosa Beach does not project being able to meet by the use of race -neutral means. Contract goals are established so that, over the periodto which the overall goal applies, they will cumulatively result in meeting any portion of the overall goal that is not projected to be met through the use of race -neutral means. Contract goals will be established only on those DOT -assisted contracts that- have subcontracting possibilities. Contract goals need not be established on every such contract, and the size of contract goals will be adapted to the circumstances of each such contract (e.g., type and location of work, availability of DBEs to perform the particular type of work). The contract work items will be compared with eligible DBE contractors willing to work on the project. A determination will also be made to decide which items are likely to be performed by the prime contractor and which ones are likely to be performed by the subcontractor(s). The goal will then be incorporated into the contract documents. Contract goals will be expressed as a percentage of the total amount of a DOT -assisted contract. XVI Transit Vehicle Manufacturers 026.49) If DOT -assisted contracts will include transit vehicle procurements, City of Hermosa Beach will require each transit vehicle manufacturer, as a condition of being authorized to bid or propose on transit vehicle procurements, to certify that it has complied with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 26, Section 49. City of Hermosa Beach will direct the transit vehicle manufacturer to the subject requirements located on the Internet at http://osdbuweb.dot.gov/programs/dbe/dbe.htm. XVII Good Faith Efforts (§26.53) Information to be Submitted City of Hermosa Beach treats bidders'/offerors' compliance with good faith effort requirements as a matter of responsiveness. A responsive proposal is meeting all the requirements of the advertisement and solicitation. Each solicitation for which a contract goal has been established will require the bidders/offerors to submit the following information to 1315 Valley Dr., Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 no later than 4:00 p.m. on or before the fourth day, not including Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, following bid opening: 1. The names and addresses of known DBE firms that will participate in the .contract; 2: A description of the work that each DBE will perform 3: The dollar amount of the participation of each DBE firm participation 4. Written and signed documentation of commitment to use a DBE subcontractor whose participation it submits to meet a contract goal; 5. Written and signed confirmation from the DBE that it is participating in the contract as provided in the prime contractor's commitment; and 6. If the contract goal is not met, evidence of good faith efforts. Demonstration of Good Faith Efforts The obligation of the bidder/offeror is to make good faith efforts. The bidder/offeror can demonstrate that it has done so either by meeting the contract goal or documenting good faith efforts. Examples of good faith efforts are found in Appendix A to part 26 which is attached. The following personnel are responsible for determining whether a bidder/offeror who has not met the contract goal has documented sufficient good faith efforts to be regarded as responsive;; The Hermosa_ Beach Department of Public Works City of Hermosa Beach will ensure that all information is complete and accurate and adequately documents the bidder/offeror's good faith efforts before a commitment to the performance of the contract by the bidder/offeror is made. Administrative Reconsideration Within 10 days of being informed by City of Hermosa Beach that it is - not responsive because it has not documented sufficient good faith efforts, a bidder/offeror may request administrative reconsideration. Bidder/offerors should make this request in writing to the following reconsideration official: Stephen Burrell, City Manager, City of Hermosa Beach, 1315 ValleyDr., Hermosa Beach, CA 90254, (310) 318- 0216.. The reconsideration official will not have played any role, in the original determination that the bidder/offeror did not make or document sufficient .good faith efforts. City of Hermosa Beach As part of this, reconsideration, the bidder/offeror will have the opportunity to provide written documentation or argument concerning the issue of whetherit met the goal or made adequate good faith efforts to do so. The bidder/offeror will have the opportunity to meet in person with the reconsideration official to discuss the issue of whether it met the goal or made adequate good faith efforts to do so. The City of Hermosa Beach will send the bidder/offeror a written decision on reconsideration, explaining the basis for finding that the bidder did or did not meet the goal or make adequate good faith efforts to do so. The result of the reconsideration process is not administratively appealable to Caltrans, FHWA or the DOT. Good Faith Efforts when a DBE is Replaced on a Contract City of Hermosa Beach will require a contractor to make good faith efforts to replace a DBE that is terminated or has otherwise failed to complete its work on a contract with another certified DBE, to the extent needed to meet the contract goal. The prime contractor is required to notify the RE immediately of the DBE's inability or unwillingness to perform and provide reasonable documentation. In this situation, the prime contractor will be required to obtain City of Hermosa Beach prior approval of the substitute DBE and to provide copies of new or amended subcontracts, or documentation of good faith efforts. If the contractor fails or refuses to comply in the time specified, City of Hermosa Beach contracting office will issue an order stopping all or part of payment/work until satisfactory action has been taken. If the contractor still fails to comply, the contracting officer may issue a termination for default proceeding. XVIII Counting DBE Participation (§26.55) City of Hermosa Beach will count DBE participation toward overall and contract goals as provided in the. contract specifications for the prime contractor, subcontractor, joint venture partner with prime or subcontractor, or vendor of material or supplies. See the Caltrans' Sample Boiler Plate Contract Documents previously mentioned Also, refer to XIII. "After Contract Award.. XIX Certification (§26.83(a)) City of Hermosa Beach ensures that only DBE firmscurrently certified on the Caltrans' directory will participate as DBEs in our program. XX Information Collection and Reporting Bidders List The City of Hermosa Beach will create and maintain a bidders. list, consisting of information about all DBE and non -DBE firms that bid or quote on its DOT -assisted contracts. The bidders list will include the name, address, DBE/non-DBEstatus, age, and annual gross receipts of firms. City of Hennosa Beach Monitoring Payments to DBEs Prime contractors are required to maintain records and documents of payments to DBEs for three years following the performance of the contract. These records will be made available for inspection upon request by any authorized representative of the City of Hermosa Beach, Caltrans, FHWA, or DOT. This reporting requirement also extends to any certified DBE subcontractor. Payments to DBE subcontractors will be reviewed by the City of Hermosa Beach to ensure that the actual amount paid to DBE subcontractors equals or exceeds the dollar amounts stated in the schedule of DBE participation. Reporting to Caltrans City of Hermosa Beach Final utilization of DBE participation will be reported to the DLAE using Exhibit 17-F of the Caltrans' LAPM. Confidentiality City of Hermosa Beach will safeguard from disclosure to third parties information that may reasonably be regarded as confidential.business information, consistent with Federal, state, and local laws. Stephen Burrell City Manager This Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Program is accepted by:: [Signature of DLAE 1,1 City of Hermosa Beach APPENDIX A TO PART 26 GUIDANCE CONCERNING GOOD FAITH EFFORTS I. When, as a recipient, you establish a contract goal on a DOT -assisted contract, a bidder must, in order to be responsible and/or responsive, make good . faith efforts to meet the goal. The bidder can meet this requirement in either of two ways. First, the bidder can meet the goal, documenting commitments for participation by DBE firms sufficient for this purpose. Second, even if it doesn't meet the goal, the bidder can document adequate good faith.efforts. This means that the bidder must show that it took all necessary and reasonable steps to achieve a DBE goal or other requirement of this part which, by their scope, intensity, and appropriateness to the objective, could reasonably be expected to obtain sufficient DBE participation, even if they were not fully successful. II. In any situation in which you have established a contract goal, part 26 requires you to use the good faith efforts mechanism of this part. As a recipient, it is up to you to make a fair and reasonable judgment whether a bidder that did not meet the goal made adequate good faith efforts. Itis important for you to consider the quality, quantity, and intensity of the different kinds of efforts that the bidder has made. The efforts employed by the bidder should be those that one could reasonably expect a bidder to take if the bidder were actively and aggressively trying to obtain DBE participation sufficient to meet the DBE contract goal. Mere p.m forma efforts are not good faith efforts to meet the DBE contract requirements. We emphasize, however, that your determination concerning the sufficiency of the firm's good faith efforts is a judgment call: meeting quantitative formulas is not required. III. - The Department also strongly cautions you against requiring that a bidder meet a .contract goal (i.e., obtain a specified amount of DBE participation) in order to be awarded a contract, even though the bidder makes an adequate good faith efforts showing. This rule specifically prohibits you from, ignoring bona fide good faith efforts. W. The following is a list of types of actions which you should consider as part of the bidder's good faith efforts to obtain DBE participation. It is not intended to be a mandatory checklist, nor is it intended to be exclusive or exhaustive. Other factors or types of efforts may be relevant in appropriate cases. A. Soliciting . through all reasonable and available means (e.g. attendance at pre-bid meetings, advertising and/or written notices) the interestof all certified DBEs who have the capability to perform the work of the contract. The bidder must solicit this interest within sufficient time to allow the DBEs to respond to the solicitation. The bidder -must determine with certainty if the DBEs are interested by taking appropriate steps to follow up initial solicitations. B. Selecting portions of the work to be performed by DBEs in order to increase the likelihood that the DBE goals will . be achieved. This includes, where appropriate, breaking out contract work items into economically feasible units to facilitate DBE participation, even when the prime contractor might otherwise prefer to perform these work items with its own forces. C. Providing interested DBEs with adequate information about the plans, specifications, and requirements of the contract in a timely manner to assist them in responding to a solicitation. City of Hermosa Beach D. (1) Negotiating in good faith with interested DBEs. It is the bidder's responsibility to make a portion of the work available to DBE subcontractors and suppliers and to select those portions of the work or material needs consistent with the available DBE subcontractors and 'suppliers, so as to facilitate DBE participation. Evidence of such negotiation includes the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of DBEs that were considered; a description of the information provided regarding the plans and specifications for the work selected for subcontracting; and evidence as to why additional agreements could not be reached for DBEs to perform the work. ' (2) A bidder using good business judgment would consider a number of factors in negotiating with subcontractors, including DBE subcontractors, and would take a firm's price and capabilities as well as contract goals into consideration. However, the fact that there may be some additional costs involved in finding and using DBEs is not in itself sufficient reason for a bidder's failure to meet the contract DBE goal, as long as such costs are reasonable. Also, the ability or desire of a prime contractor to perform the work of a contract with its own organization does not relieve the bidder of the responsibility to make good faith efforts. Prime contractors are not, however, required to accept higher quotes from DBEs if the price difference is excessive or unreasonable. E. Not rejecting DBEs as being unqualified without sound reasons based on a thorough investigation of their capabilities. The contractor's standing within its industry, membership in specific groups, organizations, or associations and political or social affiliations (for example union vs. non-union employee status) are not legitimate causes for the rejection or non -solicitation of bids in the contractor's efforts to meet the project goal. F. Making efforts to assist interested DBEs in obtaining bonding, lines of credit, or insurance as required by the recipient or contractor. G. Making efforts to assist interested DBEs in obtaining necessary equipment, supplies, materials, or related assistance or services. H. Effectively using the services of available minority/women community organizations; minority/women contractors' groups; local, state, and Federal minority/women business assistance offices; and other organizations as allowed on a case-by-case basis to provide assistance in the recruitment and placement of DBEs. V. In determining whether a bidder has made good faith efforts, you may take into account the performance of other bidders in meeting the contract. For example, when the apparent successful bidder fails to meet the contract goal, but others meet it, you may reasonably raise the question of whether, with additional reasonable efforts, the apparent successful bidder could have met the goal. If the apparent successful bidder fails to meet the goal, but meets or exceeds the average DBE participation obtained by other bidders, you may view this, in conjunction with other factors, as evidence of the apparent successful bidder having made good faith efforts. City of Hermosa Beach APPENDIX B TO BE USED FOR DESIGN -BUILD CONTRACTS The following are hereby incorporated into the . Agency's Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program II Objectives /Policy Statement (§§26.1, 26.23) At the end of the first paragraph, add the following: The Agency recognizes that certain modifications are necessary to adapt the program for use in connection with design -build contracts, and has therefore established certain procedures applicable to design -build DBE contracts under the DBE Program. Public Contract Code Section 4109 requires subcontractors to be identified by the prime contractor for the subletting or subcontracting of any portion of the work in excess of one-half of 1 percent of the prime contractor's total bid Exceptions are only in the cases of public emergency or necessity, and then only after a finding reduced to writing as a public record of the awarding authority setting forth the facts constituting the emergency or necessity. The written public . record of the awarding authority/Agency as to either emergency or necessity is attached hereto (See Appendix.0 for sample). XIII Monitoring and Enforcement Mechanisms 026.37) At the end of the first paragraph below "After Contract Award", add the following paragraph: After Design -Build Contract Award As described in the Section entitled "GOOD FAITH EFFORTS" below, each proposer for an Agency. design -build contract will be required to submit a DBE Performance Plan as part of a responsive proposal Following award of a design -build contract and during both the design and construction portions of the project, the design -build contractor will be required to submit documentation, in the. form of progress reports described below, to show that the design -build contractor is meeting the contract goal for the project, or if the goal is not being met, the design -build contractor must submit satisfactory evidence that it has made good faith efforts, in accordance with that Section, to meet the goal Evidence of good faith efforts, as described in 49 CFR Part 26 Section 26.5349 and Appendix A, will be monitored by the Agency throughout the duration of the design -build project At the end of the first paragraph below "Preconstruction Conference", add the following sentence: The contractor will promptly provide the Agency with the information required by the form entitled "Local Agency DBE Information" upon selection of any DBE or other subcontractor not previously identified by the design -build contractor. During the course of the contract, differences must be explained and resolved by either making corrections or requesting a substitution. City of Hermosa Beach At the end of the fourth paragraph below "Construction Contract Monitoring", add the following. paragraph: The contractor will provide DBE Progress Reports to the Agency with each invoice and will provide an annual report on or before August 1 of each year of the design -build contract. Each report must also include a narrative summary stating whether the contractor is on target with respect to the DBE goal set forth in the design -build contract, whether the goal has been exceeded (stating. the amount of the excess), or whether the contractor is behind target (stating the amount of the deficit). XVII: Good Faith Efforts 026.53) At the end of the third paragraph below "Information to be Submitted", add the following items: 7. A DBE Performance Plan containing a detailed description of the design -build contractor's planned methodology for achieving the DBE goal stated in the contract, including a description of the good faith efforts the design -build contractor intends to undertake to achieve that goal 8.

Willinj', and Able DBEs Number of All Ready, Willing, and Able Firm BASE FIGURE The Base Figure resulting from this calculation is as follows: Base Figure = (1) (DBEs in NAICS 23411) CBPs in NAICS 23411 Base Figure = (1) [(891 ] * 100 1076 Base Figure = .[0.0827]* 100 Base Figure = 8.27 %, SAY 9% NAICS 23411 INCLUDES 23411,23593,23521,33429 Step 2: Adjusting the Base Figure A. Current Capacity of DBEs Measured By Actual Attainments The City of Hermosa Beach did not have federally funded DOT -assisted projects in recent years; B. Disparity Study Results; DBE Availability Ratios vs. Utilization Ratios The City of Hermosa Beach has not conducted a Disparity Study regarding DBE Availability Ratios vs. Utilization Ratios. C Resultant Goal Adjustment Adjustment to the base figure is not recommended at this time, therefore, the City of Hermosa Beach sets its DBE Goal at 9%. UTILIZATION OF RACE -NEUTRAL AND RACE -CONSCIOUS METHODS Of the overall annual 9 % goal for DBE participation, the City of Hermosa Beach projects meeting 5 % o of the goal utilizing race -neutral methods, including making efforts to assure that bidding and contract requirements facilitate participation by DBEs and other small businesses; unbundling large contracts to make them more accessible to small businesses; encouraging prime contractors to subcontract portions of the work that they might otherwise perform themselves; and providing technical assistance, and other support services to facilitate consideration of DBEs and other small businesses. The remaining 4% of the goal is anticipated to be accomplished through race -conscious measures, which includes establishing contract specific goals on contracts with contracting possibilities, when needed, to meet the Authority's overall annual DBE goal: IV. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION IN SETTING OVERALL ANNUAL DBE GOALS In conformance with Public Participation. Regulatory Requirements of 49 CFR Part 26.45 and Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM)-Chapter 9, this goal analysis, has been reviewed with minority, women, local business chambers, community organizations, , and other U.S. DOT recipients. These entities are knowledgeable about the availability of disadvantaged and non -disadvantaged businesses and the effects of discrimination on contracting opportunities for DBEs within the Authority's marketplace. , Additionally, the City of Hermosa Beach has published a Public Notice in general circulation media, women/minority focused media, announcing the Authority's ` proposed overall annual goals for the FY 2000-2001 contracts assisted by DOT. Such Notice informed the public that the proposed goals and their rationale were available for Page 2of3. inspection at the Authority during normal business hours for 30 days following the date of the Public Notice and, that the City of Hermosa Beach will accept comments on the goals for 45 days from the date of the Public Notice. The required public participation provisions will be fully satisfied prior to submitting the Authority's DBE Program and Overall Annual DBE Goal for Final Review and Approval.

Background: As Council is aware, the construction contract for Project No. CIP 99-144 Strand Bikeway and Pedestrian Walkway - 24TH Street to 35TH Street was awarded to Los Angeles Engineering, Inc. at the November 14, 2000 meeting. During that meeting, it was noted that the MTA was processing the MOU for Ridesharing Funds in the amount of $106,000; therefore, the funds could not be appropriated at that time. The City first received a letter from MTA on September 5, 2000 officially . confirming the approval of the Ridesharing Funds. Staff immediately completed the required documentation, Attachments A, . B, and C, and' transmitted the documents to MTA on September 7, 2000. On November 22, 2000, the City received the processed MOU from MTA ready for execution. The services of a consultant Construction Manager are needed to supplement the construction management and inspection capacity of the Public Works Department.

December 4, 2000 Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular meeting of The Hermosa Beach City Council December 12, 2000 PROJECT NO. CIP 99-529 CLARK FIELD IMPROVEMENTS — BALLFIELD BACKSTOP APPROVAL TO DO ADDITIONAL WORK Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council approve additional work to install pitcher's warm-up cages for Project No. CIP 99-529 Clark Field Improvements —. Ballfieid Backstop to Quality Fence Co. in the amount of $5,500.00. Background: On November 28, 2000, City Council approved the construction contract with Quality Fence Co. to improve Clark Field. The general scope of work consists of the complete removal and disposal of the existing ball field backstop and fencing, site preparation and installation of the proposed ball field backstop and appurtenant work. The Little League representatives requested additional work to construct the pitchers' warm-up cages and batting cages. Please see the attached letter. City Council directed Staff to look into the feasibility of this additional work. Analysis Staff received an estimate from the Quality Fence Co. for the above mentioned work and found it to be a fair market price. The estimate to supply the materials and to construct the pitcher's warm-up cages is $5,500.00. The cost of demolishing and constructing two new batting cages is. $45,000.00. After reviewing the cost estimates and the construction schedule, . Staff recommends the construction of the pitchers' warm-up cages be awarded as part of a change order with Quality Fence Co. Since the construction of the extra batting cages is more than 25% of the originalcontract, and the construction would not be completed by the end of February, 2001, Staff recommends this work to be addressed in a future budget. Fiscal Impact: Funds are available for construction in the FY 2000-01 in account number 125- 8529-4201, therefore, no additional appropriation is needed. Alternatives 1. Approve Staffs recommendation. 2. Send back to Staff for further study. Take no action. 3. Attachments: 1. Letter From the Little League 2.

Stephen Burrell • Finance Director City Manager F:\B95\PWFILES\CCITEMS\99-529 approval to do additional work 12-12-00:doc November 21, 2000 Dear Mr. Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council: At tonight's meeting you will be making a decision about awarding a bid for the fencing and backstop project at Clark Field. On behalf of the Hermosa Beach Little League, we are pleased that this long awaited project will soon be coming to fruition. Understanding the timelines associated with public projects, we would like to request your consideration of a change-orderf for the current project that would provide additional fencing for two items: (1) two stretches of fencing six feet in height by fifty-five feet in length to parallel the 1' and 3`i base lines to protect the pitcher and catcher warming up in the already existing pitching areas adjacent to the dugouts, and (2) a second batting cage to be located adjacent to the existing one, This item can be accomplished in one of two ways: (a) with a re -design to the current cage to create two batting areas, or (b) with the addition of a second cage (the second cage would be smaller than the existing one). We know that this will require some design and some additional costs for fencing but think with the scheduled time for the fence contractor that this is our best opportunity to accomplish the task in a timely fashion. We ask that you allow Public Works to return with a, cost for this change -order at an upcoming meeting. We greatly appreciate the support this City Council has given to Little League throughout the years. With your help, our volunteer organization has been growing, with over 350 participants in Little League and 40 in Pony League anticipated for the 2001 season. This growth has created the need for more batting practice space. With the City's support, we hope to have this resolved before the upcoming season: Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Background State law required that all underground storage tanks be replaced or removed by December 1998. Pending resolution of the oil drilling litigation, which involves use of the City Yard, the tanks were not replaced. In September 1998, the City made arrangements with local gas stations for fueling and approached the City of Redondo Beach about fueling at their station. Analysis The City of Redondo Beach will allow our vehicles to fuel at their facility and charge us the price they pay forthe fuel, plus a`$.22 overhead charge (depreciation of the fueling station, administrative costs of ordering, billing, etc.). We are currently fueling the compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles at 104th and Aviation by LAX, which is very inconvenient. The fueling station in Torrance closed shortly after we purchased the last CNG vehicles. Diesel fuel, primarily used by the Fire Department, was being purchased at the Unocal on Pier and PCH, until their recent closure. We are now fueling at the Unocal on PCH and Torrance Boulevard in Redondo Beach, which is the closest station for diesel. Unleaded fuel is purchased at the Mobil station on. PCH. Because of the volatility of fuel prices, there are times when Redondo Beach's fuel price has been less than the station prices, as well as times that their price is more. The most recent comparison of prices reveals that we would have saved $.19 a gallon on diesel and $.71 on CNG, but paid $.02 more for unleaded if we were fueling with Redondo Beach. Overall, the savings would have been $94 Having the contract with Redondo Beach gives us a convenient option for fueling, particularly.in the case of diesel and CNG fuel. The contract has been approved by both City Attorneys and is on the Redondo Beach City Council meeting of 12/19/00. Respectfully submitted, dic Viki Copeland CONCUR: A'fi1 1L4 Ste •'en = urrell Finance Director City Manager Honorable Mayor and Members of The Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of December 12, 2000 Approval of Recommendation for Third Party Administration of Workers' Compensation Claims Recommendation: That the City Council approve a proposal for third party administration of the City's Workers' Compensation claims submitted by Hazelrigg Risk Management Services and authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a contract for a three (3) year term commencing January 1, 2001. Background: The contract with the existing third party administrator, Fleming & Associates expires on December 31, 2000. Staff prepared and solicited a Request for Proposals (RFP). A total • of ten (10) responses to the RFP were received. Following a review of the proposals, the Finance Director and Personnel & Risk Management Director interviewed six companies with the following result. In evaluating the proposals staff considered, the proposed service fees and the level of service to be provided. Overall, the service fees proposed were considerably less than those proposed three years ago when the City went to bid for these services. Hazelrigg Risk Management Services (HRMS) submitted the lowest service fee quotation: The fees proposed are $25,000 for the first year of the contract and $26,000 and $27,000 per year for the following two years. An additional fee of $650 - $700 would be charged per claim if the City exceed 37 claims reported•per year. There are also some additional first year costs for start-up and implementation of the program and an annual software license fee for City access to the claims information system. Currently the City is paying. $28,000 per year for claims administration services: Staff was impressed with the firm's qualifications and level of service proposed. In particular, the detail, documentation and organization of claim files appear to be outstanding. In addition, the company's internal procedures for managing the files appears to be sound. These are key elements in ensuring the files are properly managed and costs controlled as much as possible. HRMS is well versed in providing TPA services to full service municipal clients with 21 public sector clients in the southern California area. HRMS has , also received very favorable evaluations in independent audits conducted by their clients:In addition, HRMS is one of two third party administrators recommended by the Independent Cities Risk Management Authority. It is anticipated that a contract can be negotiated with Hazelrigg Risk Management Services that will include provisions for termination should the services provided not be acceptable. A three-year contract is proposed with an option for a two-year renewal based on performance as recommended by the City Manager and Personnel Director. Copies of each of the proposals submitted are available for review in the Personnel Office. Fiscal Impact: The fiscal impact of approving the proposal with HRMS will result in a three-year total cost of $84,000 including all start-up costs. Adequate funds are budgeted in the current 2000/2001 budget for all first year costs. Respectfully submitted, Mich. A.

Adjournment • r s 817 Sixth Street, Hermou Beach, CA 90254 Voice: 310-798-0110 Fax' 310-798-0120 Mai/• SusaneRyetoons.Com City Council of Hermosa Beach Civic Center 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA. 90254 To Whom it May Concern: December 12, 2000 Please consider the following reasons why you should appeal the decision of the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission not to rezone. 822 Sixth Street back to its original R-2 zoning. The property was zoned R-2 for over 80 years. I own and occupy 817 Sixth Street, the property directly across the street from 822. Both properties line Sixth Street and start the legal residential area. They are equally 120' back from PCH. _ As far as maintaining the residential character of Sixth Street I put my money where my mouth is and; purchased the property with the idea of improving the residential character of the neighborhood! The Planning Commission decision was flawed due to the lack of certain information on the part of the commission: One commissioner commented that he had no sympathy for me because I would be able to make money on the property by commercial development. Yet according to the regulation there can be no commercial development on this property fronting on Sixth Street. I have no intention of developing the property commercially because it's right across the street from my house. o They were apparently unaware, until this last meeting, that the city had no mechanism in place (Redevelopment Authority) to fund or encourage unification with the adjoining commercial property located on PCH, which consists of the porno shop and substandard housing. • One commissioner suggested commercial on the ground floor with residential lofts above. Again, that cannot happen on this property unless the owner of the adjoining PCH commercial property purchased this lot. The commercial property owner had no interest in purchasing this property. They were not aware that the property is planned for residential redevelopment in any case. With one new home if not two, thus defeating possible commercial use anyway. New residential of any kind, single or multi -family will have the same effect on commercial annexation. One of the commissioners, before he recused himself, was careful to point out to his fellow commissioners exactly where he lives on the aerial photomap. His residence is approximately 150 feet east and above the property. o They ignored the fact that (in the words of the director of the Community Development Department). "A similarly situated lot to the subject lot (located at 731 Fourth Street) was approved for redesignation and rezoning for residential purposes on November 24th, 1998 and is now a 2 -unit condominium" A compelling reason given by the commission was that the owner of the commercial property in the commercial corridor wasn't interested in purchasing and expanding onto the property, which is also the case here. A second reason was because the property was surrounded with residential on three sides, also the case here. Clearly there are good reasonsthat the City Council should hear the entire case for rezoning 822 Sixth Street so that the character of the neighborhood may be maintained. I ask you to please appeal their decision and hear the compelling evidence that you overturn their decision. Thank youvery much for your consideration, 3/%6a- t\-- L (44 Susan B.

Background At their meeting of November 21, 2000, the Planning Commission considered the proposed amendment and voted 5:0 to recommend that the Sign Ordinance language remain unchanged. At their meeting•of October 10, 2000, the City Council directed staff to initiate consideration: of the subject amendment. The proposal to allow signs above the second story was requested in connection with the proposed sign program for the new retail building located at 1303 Hermosa Avenue adjacent to the North Pier Parking Structure. Chapter 17.52 of the Zoning Ordinance pertaining to signs includes the following restriction for commercial signs in the C-1 C-2 and C-3 zones Second -Story Signs. Signs for second -story businesses may be•provided, but shall be.part of the total sign area allocation for the corresponding building frontage on the ground floor below. No signs are allowed above the second story. The underlined portion of this section was added as part of the comprehensive amendments to the Sign Code approved by the City Council in 1993. Thefocus of the amendments at that time were to reduce the potential negative impact of too many commercial signs in the downtown and other commercial districts. Analysis The developer of 1303 Hermosa Avenue has requested the proposed change because the subject code section prevents the installation of signs on the third story. The developer and tenants desire sign locations on the banding above the third floor office windows, which they believe are more visible, and because locations on the lower floor are limited. In 1993 the Sign Code was amended only after several public hearings, which included the incorporation of detailed input by the Chamber of Commerce. The amendment to the subject. section was part of the effort to deal with aesthetics and sign proliferation in commercial districts. This change was consistent with the action to reduce the height of pole signs in the C-3 zone. The subject building and the adjacent Bijou building are two of the 3 -story commercial buildings in the City which are effected by this requirement, as shown on the attached photos. Any change in this requirement would also effect the proposed new hotels on Pacific Coast Highway. Some of the buildings constructed prior to 1993 have nonconforming signs on the third story. The only 3 -story building constructed since the code change is the Beach House Hotel located on the Strand. The developer was required to lower the signs from their desired location near the roof to the uppermost part of the second level. In making this request, the developer of 1303 Hermosa Avenue provided examples of signs on three-story buildings and several two-story buildings. The three-story buildings with signs on the third level were permitted prior to the 1993 Code change. The two-story buildings shown have signs located on parapet walls or architectural towers that are part of the second floor are allowed pursuant to the Sign Code, as they are not "located above the second story". This demonstrates that this code section is somewhat ambiguous, as two-story buildings that have architectural towers, parapet walls, or clear stories with high ceilings may appear to be equal to or higher than three-story buildings. en Robertson CONCUR: Associate Planner l;,!jl! i $ Sol Blume -ld,«Director Community IP evelo. ent Department 4,g► ,old St:. !?

Staff Recommended Action: To direct staff as deemed appropriate. Director Blumenfeld summarized the staff report and reviewed the current Code text and the proposed change. He said that the developer of 1303 Hermosa Avenue has requested the proposed change because the Code prevents the installation of signs on the third story. The developer and tenants desire sign locations on the third floor, which they believe is more visible, and because locations on the lower floor are somewhat limited. He pointed out that the existing 3rd story signs submitted as evidence by the project developer is either an existing nonconforming condition or signing that exists on a tower element which appears to be above the second story but, in fact, is not. He indicated that the Code section is somewhat ambiguous, as two-story buildings that have architectural towers, tall parapet walls, and high ceilings may appear to be equal to or higher than some three-story buildings.

City Cle City Council Minutes 10-10-00 9 'Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council SUBJECT: Regular Meeting of December 12, 2000 CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH 2000 HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE PURPOSE: TO COMPLY WITH STATE REQUIREMENTS TO ADOPT AND CERTIFY THE 2000 HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE AND ADOPTION OF AN ENVIRONMENTAL NEGATIVE DECLARATION. Recommendation: That the City Council: 1. Review and comment on the Draft Housing Element Update. 2. Direct staff to transmit the document to the State Department of Housing and Community Development for review and comment. Background: Each local jurisdiction is required by the State to prepare a Housing Element Update as a mandatory requirement in the preparation and maintenance of the General Plan. The City was allocated 332 housing units for development over the five year planning period through the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) program administered by the Southern California Association of Governments (SLAG). The Housing Element Update must incorporate policies, quantified objectives and programs to meet the housing allocations identified by the State and SCAG. The City's appeal of its RHNA allocation, was denied during an appeal process which commenced in April 2000 and was concluded in June 2000. The consulting firm of Blodgett, Baylosis and Associates was subsequently retained to assist the City in completing the Housing Element Update for submission to the State by December 2000. On September 19, 2000, the Planning Commission conducted a special,meeting to consider the City's housing policies. A draft Housing Element was prepared containing policies, quantified objectives and. programs for review by the Planning Commission and City Council. On November 21, 2000, the Planning Commission considered and approved the draft document. Analysis: The City's draft Housing Element Update has been prepared to meet the statutory requirements for submission to the State. The process for preparing the document involves identifying existing and proposed housing policies, reviewing State housing requirements, examining physical constraints on development, surveying parcel level information, identifying demographic trends and incorporating public comment received at public hearings conducted by the Planning Commission and City Council. The Housing Element Update is then forwarded to the State Department of Housing and Community Development for review, approval and certification. Summary of Findings and Recommendations: 1. The City's RHNA allocation calls for construction of 332 housing units by the year 2005.. The required allocation of housing development has largely been acMevedthrough new development since 1998 totaling 167 units, resulting in an unmet housing need of 165 units. Of the unmet housing need, 55 units are to be provided for very low-income household, 42 units are to be provided for low- income households and 61 units are tobe provided for moderate -income households. 2 High land costs and the lack of available land is a constraint in meeting some of the City's unmet housing need in the development of affordable housing. 3 The City can meet some its housing allocation through development of suitable vacant parcels, underutilized parcels and areas that may be suitable for mixed use development. 4 The City produced a significant number of housing units over the last ten years and remains one of the most dense communities in the State. 5. The 2000 Housing Element Update does not result in substantive changes to existing Housing Element policies as new programs generally implement many of these existing -policies and the Housing Element Update is internally consistent with other elements of the General Plan. 6. Mixed use development zoning is proposed for the highway corridors to accommodate affordable housing allocation requirements and no other rezoning is proposed. 7. The City will maintain the current density bonus program consistent with State requirements. 8. The City will maintain the current second unit ordinance consistent with State requirements. 9. The City will continue to permit development of underdeveloped sites pursuant to the requirements of the Zone Code and General Plan. 10. The City has no regulatory barriers to maintenance, improvement and development of housing. n Sol Blume fel , Director Communit Development Department Ste., R. urrell, City anagen Attachments 1.

This includes work by the consultant, public hearings and input from business and property owners. ORDINANCE NO.

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Moratorium extended. The moratorium established by Ordinance NO. oo-1208U, adopted on November 14, 2000, is hereby extended pursuant to Government Code Section 65858 for a period of ten months and fifteen days to November 13, 2001. Section 2. Penalty. Violation of any provision of. this Ordinance shall constitute a misdemeanor and shall be punishable by a fine not to exceed $1,000 or by imprisonment in County jail for not to exceed six (6) months, or by both such fine and imprisonment. Each and every day such a violation exists shall constitute a separate and distinct violation of this Ordinance. In addition to the foregoing, any violation of this Ordinance shall constitute a public nuisance and shall be subject to abatement as provided by all applicable provisions of law. Section 3. Statement of Purpose and Urgency Findings. The City of Hermosa Beach intends to conduct studies forthwith relative to the appropriate distribution of commercial uses in the geographic area described in Exhibit A, and in particular, to determine whether there exists an overconcentration of restaurants in that area tothe detriment of other commercial activity. The purpose of this study and any, subsequent legislation is to attain the goal of a healthy and diverse downtown business climate in which a wide array of businesses may thrive. Pending such studies, and the preparation and adoption of the appropriate zoning regulations, it is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety and welfare that existing and/or new restaurants not capture an even greater share of finite commercial space, which would defeat the very purpose ofadopting an ordinance that seeks commercial and retail diversification; consequently, it is necessary that this ordinance take effect immediately If this ordinance does not take effect immediately, actions might be undertaken which may be in conflict with the ordinance ultimately adopted and ;. commercial square footage may become committed in away so as to undermine the very purpose of that ordinance. DOES Due to the foregoing circumstances, there is a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare. Cotential architecturally and historically significant resources have been identified by means of a survery, and those resources are listed in . Exhibit A to Ordinance No. 00-1208U. These structures are not necessarily the only resources which may be identified, nor are the structures listed in Exhibit A necessarily ultimately going to be designated as resources. Nonetheless, the alteration or demolition of the structures listed in Exhibit A would constitute a threat to the public health, safety, and welfarJ Therefore, it is necessary for the preservation of the public peace, health, safety and welfare that this ordinance take effect immediately. This- ordinance is an interim ordinance and shall expire in ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days after the adoption thereof unless extended pursuant to the provisions of Section 65858 of the Government Code. • This is an interim measure, . adopted pursuant to the authorization of State law in order to maintain the status quo pending the completion of the studies and adoption of amended zoning regulations, or sooner. It is not a final disposition as to development of any particular parcel of property within the City. PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this 12th day of December, 2000. MAYOR and PRESIDENT of the CITY COUNCIL ATTEST: CITY CLERK DATE: DECEMBER 6, 2000 TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: STEPHEN BURRELL, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: STREET. BANNER FUNDRAISING PROGRAM AND BANNER PERMIT POLICY AMENDMENT Recommendations: 1. That the City Council approve the new non-profit street banner fundraising program as outlined below. 2. That the City Council approve a proposed amendment to the existing street banner program by limiting it usage to Hermosa Beach- based organizations or events occurring in the City. Background The purpose of the this agenda item is to implement the decision of the City Council of 10/24/00 to approve a commercial advertising street banner program for the purpose of fundraising by Hermosa Beach non- profit organizations that provide benefits to the City as a whole, such as supporting educational or youth activities; It is proposed that the program have a two-year duration and at the end of that period be reviewed by the City Council to determine whether or not it will be continued. Commercial advertising fundraising banners would be permitted only at PCH @ 1St Street and Aviation Blvd near Prospect. In addition, on 10/24/00 the Council also directed staff to revise the existing banner program, by limiting it to Hermosa Beach organizations or events occurring within the City. FUND RAISING BANNER POLICY Hermosa Beach non-profit organizations providing benefits to the City as whole may reserve banner space to sell banners to commercial advertisers for the purpose of fundraising. The non-profit organization must: a. Be a 501-(c) (3) tax exempt non-profit entity based in the City. b. Provide liability insurance naming the City as an additionally insured.. c: Reimburse the City the cost of installation and removal of the banner. d. ` Provide documentation demonstrating that it is receiving at least $2500 per month from the advertisers: e. Utilize the proceeds (exclusive of the cost of installation and removal) exclusively for charitable purposes, and certify that no commissions or rebates are being paid to any individual for any purpose, including soliciting advertisers. Include on the banner a statement to the effect that the non-profit organization named on the banner is the recipient of the advertising proceeds. It is proposed that non -profits may request approval to place advertising banners for one quarter per calendar year. If no other non-profit requests a particular quarter within one month prior to the initiation of that quarter, a non-profit may request consideration for additional quarters each calendar year. Requests will be approved on a first come, first serve basis, and all things being equal, priority will be given to organizations that support activities or education for Hermosa Beach youth. The one issue as to which staff seeks further direction from the Council is precise format of the advertising banners, particularly, how and in what size the name of the non-profit will be displayed along with that of the commercial advertiser. It seemed clear thatthe approval given in concept at the 10/24/00 meeting was for an advertising program to raise funds for the benefit of the residents of the City, meaning that the display area for the commercial advertiser would have to besufficient to make the banner a desirable advertising medium and worth the $2,500 cost. There are several alternative ways that the display of the non-profit group can be accomplished keeping the above objective in mind 1, The City Council can dictate the percentage of space on the banner that must be devoted to the name or logo of the non- profit. 2 The commercial advertiser could occupy the entire banner, and a smaller side banner could be attached which includes a statement that the proceeds from the advertising banner go to the nonprofit. This was done for the Windmill project; the Windmill logo banner remained up while the advertising banners changed. This also would reduce the cost to the non- profit/advertiser, as this part of the banner would not have to be reproduced each month. REVISION TO EXISTING STREET BANNER PROGRAM Staff was directed to revise the existingstreet banner program to limit it to Hermosa Beach organizations or events. This program makes street banner locations available exclusively to advertise community events. In order to accomplish this, the following changes will be made to the street banner program application, limiting the program to: 1. Non-profit organizations located in Hermosa Beach or non-profit organizations conducting fundraisers or events in Hermosa Beach.. 2. - Commercial eventsapproved by the City Council that take place in parks, beaches, and/or public property in Hermosa Beach 3. Non-profit organizations outside of Hermosa Beach whose programs directly serve Hermosa Beach residents. 50 40% 25 SUPPLEMENTAL Q INFORMATION 0 SIGN DONAI1ONS TO HERMOSA BEACH EDUCA1IONAI.

December 12, 2000 SAINT PATRICK'S DAY PARADE AND FESTIVAL: SATURDAY, MARCH 17- SUNDAY, MARCH 18, 2001 Recommendation Staff recommends that Council: Approve the request from the South Bay St. Patrick's Day Weekend Committee (SBSPDC) to hold their annual Saint Patrick's Day Parade .on March 17, 2001. 2. Approve the event contract (Attachment A) and street closures as requested. 3. Direct staff to work with the. Saint Patrick's Day Committee to determine the feasibility of adding a Soap Box Derby to the event on Sunday. Staff recommends that Council consider the following requests: • $15,000 allocation from the Downtown Enhancement Fund for Parade expenses ($5,000 is listed in the FY 2000-2001 budget and $10,000 has been raised with the Plaza promotions) $2,001 allocation from Proposition A Transportation Funds for shuttle bus service, Waiver of: special event fees, parking fees, banner fees, and amplification permit fees: Billing for Police, Fire, and Public Works -services at actual hourly cost. Background On November 15,2000, staff received a request for a special event permit from the SBSPDC to hold their 7th Annual Saint Patrick's Day Parade and Festival. Attachments B -D contain the event outline, budget and site plans. Analysis The parade•staging area will be located on Valley Drive from Pier Avenue to 8th Street using: City Hall Parking Lot, Valley Drive, the Greenbelt, and beyond 8th Street on the Greenbelt Parking Lot. This staging area plan has worked successfully in past years to minimize the impacts of street closures by confining operations to the south side of Pier Avenue. The parade route will begin on Pier Avenue at Valley Drive and will proceed westbound to Hermosa Avenue where it will turn southbound (on the East Side of Hermosa Avenue) and end at 8th Street. The vendor booths and the two-day festival will be located as follows: Plaza Parking Lot A 11th Street The Committee requested $10,000 with subsidy for direct City services for Police and Public Works costs. Since the Special Event Ordinance prohibits the City from waiving direct City costs, it is more favorable to assist the event with an overall subsidy amount of $15,000. From this allocation, the City will recover direct costs first, forwarding any remaining balance to the Committee. If Council approves this request, staff will determine additional Police and staff fees and will require an approved traffic safety plan for the extended closure. Fiscal .Impact: $15,000 allocation from the Downtown Enhancement Fund $2,000 allocation from Proposition A Funds Direct costs for Police, Fire, and Public Works to be determined pending feasibility of Soap Box Derby. Last year's billing was $8,112.13. Attachments: A. Event Contract B. Letter of Request C. Operating and Media Budgets D. Diagram of Parade Route and Vendor Booths Respectfully Submitted, Mary .

R. Reviczky, Mayor City of Hermosa Beach 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, California 90254 RE: 2001 St. Patrick's Day Parade & Festival Dear Mayor Reviczky and Members of the Council: The St. Patrick's Day & Festival Committee would like to request your approval of the enclosed proposal for our 2001 St. Patrick's Day Parade and Festival. In accordance with discussions with members of the Council, we are proposing a major change from previous years, eliminating the vendor booths on Hermosa Avenue. We are requesting a two day event, utilizing Pier Plaza, 11 Street and the City Parking Lot. It would be our intent to leave the approximately 46 vendors set up overnight, to feature Irish vendors and limit other vendors to high end art (i.e. John Post) and the most popular vendors from previous events. The Food Court would be on. 11th Street with the Parking lot utilized for the. Kiddie Carnival and Petting Zoo. Utilizing the basic "Aloha Days" configuration on Pier Plaza would allow us a maximum vendor income of $19,700, a reduction in anticipated income of $14,689! Although some Council members have expressed a desire to reserve transportation funds for street repairs, others have told us that they consider the expediture for shuttle bus service for special events to be appropriate. Therefore, we are requesting $2,000 in City Transportation funds but are prepared, if necessary, to offset the traditional City transportation fund donation with additional Committee expenditures. From our Committee's beginning in1995, we have sought to present a quality event. Parades are expensive and labor intensive. Festivals, in order to raise revenue, either have to charge an entry fee, rely on major Corporate and Civic Sponsorships or be free market vendor based. ATTACHMENT B Although we have some Sponsor revenue - $13,500 including the City's $5,000 • contribution, our event has been vendor funded up to this year. In order to offset the vendor income, we are requesting the City become a full and major sponsor of the St. Patrick's Day Parade and Festival: As you will note from our actual 2000 income/expenses balance sheet (attached), the City gave our events $5,000 in direct contribution to be used against City expenses, which totaled $8,112. Such City expenses as Public Works and Police overtime are treated as simply the cost of "hosting" major events in other Cities such as Los Angeles and Redondo Beach. We are requesting that the City sponsor the St.. Patrick's Day Parade and Festive with a cash donation of $10,000 from the new special events fund established through the excellent work of the Assistant City Manager and that the City waive all costs including the Public Works and Police overtime: This combination would allow the events to succeed with some additional economies in expenditures by the Committee. In addition to the Longboard and Shortboard Surf Contest that we began last year, we are proposing to add a "Soap Box Derby" on Sunday as an extra family attraction with competitive heats for different age groups racing down Pier Avenue from Manhattan. The Easy Reader was involved in a youth soap box derby competition this year and have indicated a ,willingness to work with us on such an addition to the St. Patrick's Day events. The Parade will again be its original 1995 route from City Hall down Pier Avenue to Hermosa Avenue South (on the east side of Hermosa) to 8th Street and east to disband. Pier Avenue from Manhattan to Beach and Hermosa Avenue from 13th Street to 8th Street would be closed to traffic from 10:00 A.M. to 12:30 P.M. as needed and coordinated by the Hermosa Police Department. Two stages will be placed on Pier Plaza. - one at the Pier head and one near Hermosa Avenue. The Committee will, as usual, encourage all business in Hermosa Beach to participate in the parade. Many of the businesses on Hermosa Avenue are upset that they will no longer be able to participate in the Festival with their own booths in front of their stores as they previously have and some may be upset over the configuration on Pier Plaza which will restrict the participation of some of the merchants located on the Plaza. We will attempt to deal with their frustrations as diplomaticallyas possible. We are requesting the following items for approval: City sponsorship of $10,000 for Parade and Festival expenses. Waiver of Parking Fees, Street Banner Fees, Amplification Permit fees and other City Fees, including Public Works, Police and Fire Department fees. Waiver of Fees and approval for the use of the Clark Building for the Committee's fundraising "Hooley" Saturday March 3, 2001. Approval to"utilize the City Parking Lot on 11'x' Street for a Carnival and Petting Zoo.

Approval to utilize the Pier Head, if open, and/or the beach area immediately north of the Pier for the Ancient Irish village - Queen Medb's Encampment Closure of Valley Drive from 8th Street to Pier Avenue from 7:00 am to 1:00 p.m. (for Parade line up) Saturday, March 17th..

ANALYSIS: This Ordinance will regulate the reduction of storm water pollution in four fundamental ways: Requiring all construction sites within the City to adhere to established Best Management Practices (BMP's) for the reduction of potential pollutants. Requiring the development of pollution prevention plans for construction sites. Requiring new developments to incorporate structural BMP's into their designs to reduce stormwater runoff and pollutant migration. Establishing an on-going inspection and maintenance program for developments that install treatment control BMP's with the exception of the construction BMP's that will commonly apply to all exterior construction, these new regulations will apply to any of the following types of development: A. Subdivisions consisting of ten or more single-family homes. B. Residential developments involving the grading of any natural slope that is twenty-five percent or greater. C Commercial or industrial developments that create at least 100,000 square feet of impermeable area, including parking areas. D. Parking lots of 5,000 square feet or more, or twenty-five or more parking spaces potentially exposed to rainfall.
