THE HERMOSA BEACH FORM OF GOVERNMENT
Hermosa Beach has the Council -Manager form of government, with a City Manager
appointed by and responsible to the City Council for carrying out Council policy. The Mayor
and Council decide what is to be done. The City Manager, operating through the entire City
staff, does it. This separation of policy making and administration is considered the most
economical and efficient form of City government in the United States today.
The following explanations may help you to understand the terms found on most agendas for
meetings of the Hermosa Beach City Council.
GLOSSARY
Consent Items ... A compilation of all routine matters to be acted upon by one vote; approval
requires a majority affirmative vote. Any Councilmember may remove an item from this
listing, thereby causing that matter to be considered under the category Consent Calendar
items Removed For Separate Discussion.
Public Hearings ... Public Hearings are held on certain matters as required by law -or by
direction of Council. The Hearings afford the public the opportunity to appear and formally
express their views regarding the matter being heard. Additionally, letters may be filed with
the City Clerk, prior to the Hearing.
Ordinances ... An ordinance is a law that regulates government revenues and/or public
conduct. All ordinances require two "readings". The first reading introduces the ordinance
into the records. At least 5 days later Council may adopt, reject or hold over the ordinance to
a subsequent meeting. Most ordinances take effect 30 days after the second reading.
Emergency ordinances are governed by different provisions and waive the time requirements.
Written Communications ... The public, members of advisory boards/commissions or
organizations may formally communicate to or make a request of Council by letter; said letters
should be filed with the City Clerk by Noon the Tuesday preceding the Regular City Council
meeting and request they be placed on the Council agenda.

ADJOURNMENT to a Closed Session on April 14, 1994 at 7:00pm.

FROM: Dennis Martin, Hermosa Beach Citizen
1820 Ardmore Avenue, Hermosa Beach, CA 90250 310-372-4457
SUBJECT: Trashing the Green Belt with Tree Trimmings
I have been a resident of Hermosa Beach for one year. I live in the Pepper Tree Apartments
on Ardmore Avenue overlooking the wonderful Green Belt path between Ardmore Avenue
and Valley Drive. That Green Belt path has provided me with many hours of enjoyable
exercise. During my many trips on the path, I have removed a lot of paper, plastic and
broken glass litter in order to enhance the natural setting of the path. The beauty of the green
trees and plants and the firm surface of the path have all been greatly appreciated until a few
weeks ago.
RECEIVED
MAR 2 8 1994
CITY MGR OFFICE
Recently, the city has permitted what I consider to be excessive dumping of tree trimming
trash on the path. I want to describe to you why I regard the dumping to be an ecological
abomination to residents and visitors who may desire to use the path for healthy exercise,
aesthetic nourishment or convenience.
A few weeks ago I was astonished to see trucks dumping huge amounts of tree trimmings
consisting of odd -sized wood chips, fragments of branches, tree cones and stinky leaves on
the path. Please look at the specimens which I have prepared as evidence of the dangerously
large wood chips, twigs from branches and chunks of tree limbs which path users must
confront whenever they choose to walk, run or bike on the path (Exhibit "A").
When I first observed the conglomeration of tree trimmings being dumped on the path, I
quickly called City Hall and asked who was responsible for this tree trimming atrocity on the
path and was given the name of Mike Flaherty of maintenance. I was told that it was a
custom done every six months. I told the secretary that this was the first time it had been
done during the past year since I began using the path nearly every day. I asked the secretary
to pass along the message of my discomfort and urged her to have Mike consider my
complaint to stop the dumping.
However, the trash dumping has continued. I had hoped that by waiting a few weeks I might
become more objective about the issue and discover some value in the dumping. I had hoped
the tree trimmings would quickly dry up and blow away or blend into the sandy soil.
Unfortunately, that wish has not come true. In fact, the more I walk and run and bike on the
path, the more angry I get about the ruination of the_path as the dumpers keep trucking
toward Gould Avenue. Last week I learned that Superintendent of Public Works, Amy
Amirani, is responsible for managing the Green Belt. Now I ask her to reconsider and
remove the tree trimming trash quickly.
I believe it is urgent that city officials who care about the quality of life on the path
bl
2
investigate the difference between walking, running and biking on the new uneven tree
trimmings and compare that to walking, running and biking on the old firm surface which
still exists just south of where Gould Avenue crosses Ardmore and Valley. Luckily, since the
surface there has not been contaminated yet, that stretch of a few hundred feet of path is still
fun to run and bike on. That harder surface seems to be far superior to the tree trimming
trash which has now also been dumped northward between Gould Avenue and Boundary.
I think the decision to dump tree trimmings may have been based upon bureaucratic
expediency. It may have been based more on an urgency to get rid of the tree trimmings
quickly rather than because the path really needed to be resurfaced. Please start investigating
now while something can still be done to restore the firm and level original surface of the
path. I suggest that the city use a bulldozer or a tractor with a blade to clean the path and
then use a scoop loader to put all of the tree trimmings onto a truck for deposit somewhere
else. It could be dumped on a city compost pile to finish rotting so the tree trimming trash
could be recycled into something useful for gardeners.
The good intentions of the overzealous dumpers may have some merit in the long-term
cosmic view of the universe --because trees do decompose eventually. But the immediate and
most direct negative consequence to walkers, runners and bikers ig obvious. Sadly, the Green
Belt path is now more of a blight area than a recreational strip. This is proven by the fact
that most of the frequent joggers who run daily on the Green Belt now run on a narrow
sandy trail which meanders through the plant growth and around the trees closer to Ardmore
Avenue.
There, next to the street, runners are exposed to more traffic fumes which are more
dangerous to their health than they would be if they were running and breathing the cleaner
air on the main path which goes down the middle of the Green Belt. Perhaps the most
positive asset of the tree trimming trash dumping is that in this one instance it causes men
and women to get closer together, even for the few seconds it takes to pass and not bump
each other off the tiny trail! Some runners have developed an ingenious sidestep which
barely slows their stride as they pass.
It is funny to watch the runners attempting to pass each other on the narrow trail. But it is
not amusing to realize the increased danger to their health and safety due to the tree
trimming debris on the main path. Therefore, I would like to urge members of the city
council and city manager's staff to personally become involved in this quality of life issue. I
would like this subject agendized and discussed as soon as possible. Please request a quick
cost/benefit analysis which should include an informal EIR to represent the needs of path
users.
Please include the concerns which I have referred to in this letter. I have summarized them
in the following itemized list which reflects my perception of the problems and remedies for
the health, safety and aesthetic needs of Green Belt path users:
3
TREE TRIMMING TRASH HAZARDS --DANGERS FOR HUMANS AND PETS:
1) The large, sharp chunks of wood in the tree trimming trash could easily strain or sprain a
foot, ankle, knee or hip since the surface is unreliable underfoot. The surface is unpredictable
because it is uneven with soft spots and hard wood chunks. Please observe the specimens of
tree trimming trash in the zip lock plastic bag (Exhibit "A"). There are many larger, worse
pieces of tree trimmings on the path but it would take a wheelbarrow or truck to carry all of
the worst pieces to City Hall for scientific investigation and public exhibition.
2) The allergens from the dead leaves which produce moldy dust and stinky fumes are toxic
to people with allergies or impaired immune systems due to hydrocarbon poisoning or other
diseases. This is a more serious problem than just one of strong odors from rotting leaves
and the turpentine smell from the wood chips. The "dust" accumulates underfoot as the tree
trimmings disintegrate under the pressure of human and pet feet striking the ground many
thousands of times each day. This toxic dust gets dispersed into the air in a worse way every
time a shoe or a paw hits the path. This accumulating dust should be removed and a little
sand or sawdust should be trucked in to fill the gopher holes and smooth the path for good
drainage. The path does not now drain well after a rainstorm. And now it looks and smells
more like a cesspool than a lush green oasis in the urban sprawl.
3) Runners who fear the hazards of the tree trimming trash with the high risk of muscle
sprains and strains now take a narrow trail to avoid that danger. But now, they are exposed
to more unhealthy --more concentrated --doses of hydrocarbon compounds from car and truck
traffic fumes than they would have been on the main path since the narrow trail is closer to
the street. These fumes have been shown to cause deadly lesions in the lungs of joggers. So,
the most healthy way to manage the Green Belt would be to keep the main path in the middle
of the Green Belt in the best possible condition for users. They would be more motivated
then to use the middle path rather than to create detours which destroy the Green Belt plants
in their desperate attempt to avoid the dangerous obstacles on the path.
4) More dog walkers permit their dogs to do more "pooping" on the path without
cleaning up the messes. The pet messes are harder to pick up by owners and harder to detect
by runners until they are stepped on. Previously, dog piles could be spotted more quickly and
you had more time to avoid them. Now more paper and plastic garbage is also left on the
path since it blends in.
4
FINAL PLEA AND CONTINGENCY PLAN
Please respect the needs of path users in all future city plans for managing the Green Belt
path resources. I believe that if only half the time and effort required by city staff to dump
the tree trimmings on the path would have been used to enhance it, the Green Belt path
would now be in excellent shape for those of us who choose to use it for improved health and
convenience.
I believe that once the tree trimming trash is removed, the following Green Belt
enhancements could be implemented quickly:
1. Water the path at least twice each week so the dust on
the path would be reduced and result in an absorbent
crusty surface good for walking, running and biking.
Now the weekly Tuesday morning trickle of water on the
plants and trees is inadequate for the foliage as well
as the path. In fact, the trees and plants directly in
front of the Pepper Tree Apartments are turning yellow
from lack of regular watering. PLEASE, if nothing else
is done quickly, at least start watering the Green Belt
trees and plants more adequately so they will stay green!
2. Rake the crust of the path from time to time to keep
the surface smooth for good drainage. The harder and
more level surface of the sandy soil mixed with smaller
wood chips provided a firmer surface that was much more
comfortable for walking, running and biking. And it
drained and dried quickly. Now the surface is mushy.
3. Trap the gophers and tamp down the burrow dirt so path
users won't trip and injure themselves. A little sand
or sawdust at appropriate places would make it ideal.
Thank you very much for reading and thinking about this alternative approach to Green Belt
resource management. I believe the Green Belt is a great treasure which should not be
allowed to deteriorate further.

RE: New Crosswalk Placement
Dear Council,
RECEIVED
MAR 3 0 1994
CITY MGR, OFFICE
I am writing to request the placement'of 2 crosswalks in separate areas
of Hermosa Beach.
Please consider plaing a crosswalk at the intersection of 28th Street
and Manhattan Avenue, the south side of this intersection. Unfortun-
ately, this thoroughfare between Gould and Longfellow has become very
busy and cars are often travelling in excess of the 30mph speed limit.
I have witnessed many near misses and I believe a crosswalk would
slow down the traffic and insure safety for the many children, adults
and families that cross there.
Secondly, I would like to see a 4 -way crosswalk placed at the 4 -way
stop of Gould and Morningside Drive. Again, this is a major
thoroughfare to and from our city. I have seen many cars roll through
the stop signs there and to make matters worse both east -west directions
and north -south have blinded sides. Many people cross here because
of the park, and I feel crosswalks would make that crossing much
safer.
I implore you for the safety of the children and citizens in our
community to place these crosswalks as soon as possible.
Please place this on the Written Communications Agenda at the next City
Council Meeting.

Re: Missing portions of city meetings in the video replay tapes as
delivered to Multivision.
Reference my letter dated 3/29/94, attached.
Mayor, Councilmembers and others:
As outlined in my letter of 3/29/94 the replay tape of the 3/22/94 Council meeting
had alterations made to it in the area of the meeting's recording wherein four
municipal items of 50 minutes duration were replaced with a 'Recess' sign.
The replay tape of last night's Tuesday 4/5/94 Planning Commission meeting as
delivered by city staff to Multivision, is missing the first 25 minutes of the meeting
including the public testimony portion of the first public hearing item #7. The
balance of the meeting was replayed on Multivision today Wednesday at noon.
A city memo dated 3/30/94 from Michele D. Tercero to Viki Copeland does not
explain what happened to the 50 minutes of the 3/22/94 council meeting and of
who directed the alterations of the tape to be made. It should be noted that the
VCR recorded approximately 1 hour of material after the one 'break' that was
taken in that meeting. In other words the VCR was not off. The tape was
tampered with. Another recording shows people in the council chamber near
midnight of 3/22/94. The questions in my letter of 3/29/94 are still pertinent and
still not answered.
The incident regarding the joint -council -and -planning -commission meeting which
evidently involved 'audio hacking' by an 'outsider' is a separate problem which I
assume you are already dealing with.
However, the technical problems encountered with the wireless microphones
cutting in and out throughout the meeting needs to be effectively addressed by
the audio contractor. The primary reason for buying the new audio system was to
eliminate this very problem.
b3
Longacre to Council 4/6/94 Page 2
I would like to suggest that the council immediately turn over the recording of our
meetings to Multivision (through an agreement if necessary). That they provide
the camera person(s) to do a more professional job and that this be connected
with our franchise renewal much as the microphone and city attorney's costs.
The current system has the city blaming Multivision and Multivision blaming the
city. As an observer, I believe there have been some problems with replay timing
at Multivision, but in my view all problems with the recordings have been due to
problems with city procedures, and equipment.
Having observed these problems for seven years, problems that never go away,
along with the apparent apathy of some council members with respect to the
importance of the public being able to view their elected representatives, it is
evident that this process needs to be put into the hands of a single entity. One
which has both the technical expertise and the accountability to handle this
matter. It should be noted that Multivision handled this function entirely for
Manhattan Beach up until their franchise renewal. I suggest as a small city we
need to have Multivision handle this function, and this should start immediately.
This is clearly a function that can be handled better by the private sector. It is
isolated and well defined.
I hope you will take decisive action immediately, and it would seem this can be
done administratively, to correct this problem, a problem which makes the city,
and its council look incompetent, but most of all deprives the people from having
an accurate view of their city proceedings.
Thank you for your interest.

Re: Alterations made to the video tape recording of the
3/22/94 Council meeting as delivered to Multivision for replay.
The VHS video tape of the meeting of Tuesday 3/22/94 and as delivered to
Multivision for replay noon of the following day (Wednesday 3/23/94) was
altered. Municipal items #9, thru #12 of the meeting, which were transmitted
live and with no apparent problem, were replaced with a 'Council in Recess'
video message on this delivered tape.
The municipal items replaced with the dubbed in 'Recess' message included
the discussions and testimony regarding #9=South School Park Award of
Contract, #10=Biltmore Park Masterplan, and #12=Los Angeles County
Lifeguard and Beach Maintenance Services.
The dubbed in 'Recess' message starts right at the end of the BFI rate
adjustment discussion, but about 15 seconds ahead of the final BFI vote.
Following about 12 minutes of the 'Recess' video message the council
meeting reappears with the discussions picking up at the return to the
consent calendar and the discussion of item-1f=criteria for distribution of in -
lieu parking spaces. The balance of the meeting was then on the tape as
transmitted live. Prior to this return to the meeting, there is about 5 seconds
of video interference noise on the tape following the 'Recess' message.
The items missing which took 50 minutes of live -time were thus replaced
with about 12 minutes of the 'Recess' message.
Longacre to Council 3/29/94 Page 2
The live meeting ended about 11:30pm. To an observer at home Tuesday
night 3/22/94 the picture then went to color bars followed by the return to
Multivision's ever changing 12 second picture spots. However, a few
minutes later there was a return to a live transmission coming from the
council chambers. Some people were still in the council chamber doing
something with the camera at this late hour and it was going out over the
cable system live. This transmission over the city's cable system included a
live transmission of the very 'Recess' video message that appeared in the tape
delivered to Multivision for the following day's replay. This was observed
and recorded by myself and another individual in city. This recording clearly
shows a hand adjusting the 'Recess' sign. These same identical images are
those which appear on the tape of the meeting as played over Multivision
Wednesday and Friday following the meeting. Clearly the 'Recess' message
was processed in the council chamber between 11:40pm and Midnight of the
same night 3/22/94.
Some of the important questions that need research are the following.
1 -Who was present in the council chamber until and possibly after midnight
Tuesday 3/22/94 after the meeting ended with no closed session?
2 -Who recorded the 'Recess' message onto the tape for Multivision's replay
use?
3 -Why was the 12 minute 'Recess' message placed on the tape, and at this
particular point in the meeting's recording? What happened to the 50 minutes
of recording of the important items #9, #10, and #12 mentioned above?
4 -Who made the decision to have the 'Recess' message placed into the tape?
5 -Was the entire meeting recorded on 1, 2 or more tapes initially, and if so
why?
6 -If the meeting was in any way copied from 1 or more tapes to another
tape, who now holds the original tapes, and why and when was this copying
accomplished?
Longacre to Council 3/29/94 Page 3
I have loaned a copy of the full meeting, as recorded directly off the cable, to
Multivision and it was played Monday 3/28/94 at noon. Multivision as of
Monday morning 3/28/94 was holding the 3/22/94 tape as delivered to them
by city staff.
I would request that a report be made by the city manager to the council and
public regarding this matter as soon as possible.
It should be understood that while replay of the meetings is the goal, the
nature of this letter pertains not to that issue. This letter pertains to the
alteration of the video recording of the 3/22/94 public council meeting as
delivered to Multivision for replay purposes. My interest, and I certainly
hope it is your interest also, is in understanding exactly why and how this
alteration took place.
Thank you for your time,
noward ongacre

Hermosa Beach, California
For the meeting of April 12
Honorable Councilmembers:
By fax
First, I ask you to reconsider, at your earliest opportunity
the City's decision which has forbidden the cable company
from making the usual replay of the tape of a recent
controversial council meeting.
Second, in the light of the above as well as microphone
problems and a rash of losses of major portions (longer than
18 minutes) of the tapes of at least two recent meetings, 1
ask you to quickly make a formal statement that will tell
staff of your permanent policy about how well you expect
city meetings to be recorded and. and how often you expect
city meetings to be re -televised.

CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH
PLANNING DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Michael Schubach, Pi , •tor
SUBJECT: Request for Closed Session Discussion Regarding Personnel Issue
DATE: April 7, 1994
I recently submitted an appeal regarding the certification of the list of candidates for
Community Development Director.
For the second time, the City Manager has informed me that the City Attorney has
informed him that there is no appeal to the City Council (He further indicated that I could
discuss this matter as a communication at a City Council meeting). However, in the past,
the City Council has not always agreed with the City Attorney's opinion. For this reason,
I believe the City Council should take some formal position on this issue.
Further, I think the City Council needs to know all the circumstances surrounding this
matter, and I do not think an open public meeting is the place to discuss it.
Also, the options available to the City regarding this whole matter need to be examined.
There is no mandate to reorganize, or hire anyone. This current situation of having the
Building under Planning could remain as is temporarily or indefinitely.

City Manager Burrell presented the staff report and re-
sponded to Council questions.
Coming forward to address the Council on this item were:
Chip Scholz - Director of Community Relations for BFI,

increase was needed due to the increase in fuel,
tires and the general cost of doing business;
said this was only the second increase in three
and one half years;
Shirley Cassell - 611 Monterey -Blvd., questioned why
residents were required to pay extra for
recycling, if the City was given any part of the
money collected from recycling, and why residents
were required to pay in advance of the service
being performed;
Hollie Murray - 1775 Valley Drive, said he paid his
bill one year in advance and felt this
represented a contract with the company, yet
received a bill to pay the balance after the last
increase;
Vitaly Gorodetsky - 1115 First Street, questioned why
residents only received one recycling bin, felt
City Council Minutes 03-22-94 Page 8463
it would be better if recyclables were separated;
said he had called and had received no response
from the company;
Bill Feldon - (no address given), questioned why there
was no large item pick-up; said people dumped old
furniture in the road near his business and was
told he had to pay to have the items removed;

not returning his call; said that there was free
large item pick-up for residential but a charge
for commercial, however arrangements could be
made to pick up "dumped" item if he was
contacted; said the monthly cost per residence
for recycling was $3.40 and extra recycling
containers are available, but it was less
expensive for BFI to pick up non -segregated
material and separate it at its facility as the
greatest cost in recycling was the time a truck
was on the street.
Action: To approve the staff recommendations to:
1) approve a 4.18 percent rate increase for residential
and commercial accounts effective April 1, 1994, with

that the park entry was one of the areas the consultant was
being asked to address.
Coming forward to address the Council on this item were:
Hollie Murray - 1775 Valley Drive, recounted early
history of the site; questioned where the
entrance would be as he had heard it would be
from Cypress and felt this would not be a good
entry street as Cypress was a congested area with
many businesses and would need curbs and
sidewalks; suggested that the entry be from
Valley Drive with parking on the Greenbelt;
City Council Minutes 03-22-94 Page 8464
Bruce Menendez - 1420 Hermosa Avenue, business owner
on Cypress, requested that the City send a letter

entrance from Cypress;
Steve Crecy - Parks, Recreation and Community
Resources Advisory Commission Chairperson, gave a
background on the year-long process, including
two public hearings, before the Commission; said
all property owners had been notified by mail,
but the problem was that some of the business
owners were not the property owners; thought it
might be possible to have the entrance from
Valley Drive; thanked the Council for approving
the landscape architectural study;
Charles Lapham - 1255 Tenth Street, Cypress property
owner, said he was not notified; said everyone on
Cypress was happy now and did not want more

be accommodated.

Ordinance was clear, a cul-de-sac or road on the
property was not allowed;
Betty Martin - 257 27th Street, said 15th Street
needed "No Through Street" signage as people
would come down the street, not be able to turn
around, then drive through commercial property to
get out, creating a hazard (staff responded that
there was such signage, but would try to increase
or enlarge it);
Shirley Cassell - 611 Monterey Blvd., stressed that
the City staff must obey the people's vote on the
Ordinance; and,
Dallas Yost - 65 Pier Avenue, said there was already a
parking problem downtown and the Biltmore Park
would create a need for even more parking; felt
this and the turn -around problem on 15th Street
were problems that had to be addressed.
Action: To approve the Parks, Recreation and Community Re-
sources Advisory Commission recommendation to forward the
conceptual suggestions and items of concern for the Bilt-
more Park site to the architect, Lawrence Moss and Associ-
ates, who was awarded the park design proposal at an amount
of $6,000. Items of concern include:
1) no hardscape pathways (decomposed granite or other
natural surface);
2) ground plane landscape shall consist of turf, ground -
covers and flowers - shrubbery should be avoided or
minimized;
3) trees should be mature shade trees (potential for a
very large tree in the center of the park should be
explored);
4) tall landscape elements should beincluded near the
buildings on 15th Street;
5) security issues such as lighting and visibility should
be addressed;
6) sense of entry should be from the Strand;
7) no tot lot;

consensus of the Council that staff forward letters of
support for all legislation regarding State funding for
State mandated cost issues. (Mayor Edgerton absent)
c. REQUEST FROM COUNCILMEMBER BOWLER TO DISCUSS A
"SUNSET" CLAUSE FOR ALL NEW CITY ORDINANCES.
Councilmember Bowler discussed his request.
City Manager Burrell said that "sunset clauses" could be
added to Ordinances regarding conduct, but it would not be
appropriate to have "sunset clauses" on zoning Ordinances.
City Attorney Vose said the City Code was antiquated and
needed to be recodified to eliminate outdated or
unenforceable portions, but "sunset clauses" could be added
on a case by case basis to new Ordinances.
Action: After general discussion, -it was directed by
consensus of the Council that staff include a "sunset
clause" in all general Ordinances. (Mayor Edgerton absent)
d. REOUEST FROM COUNCILMEMBER BOWLER FOR SUPPORT FOR THE
ROBERTI LIBRARY ASSESSMENT DISTRICT BILL (SB1448).
Supplemental letter with attachment from the City
Council Library Subcommittee received March 21, 1994.
Councilmember Bowler discussed his request and explained
that this bill would allow the City to form a Library
District if approved by a vote of the people, and, this
might be necessary if, as stated by the County, the County
Library budget does not include funding for Hermosa Beach.
Action: After general discussion, it was directed by a
consensus of the Council that staff respond in support to
any legislation pertaining to funding of local Libraries.
(Mayor Edgerton absent)

WORK WEEK FOR ALL CUSTOMER SERVICE RELATED DEPART-
MENTS.
City Council Minutes 03-22-94 Page 8468
Mayor Pro Tempore Benz requested that this item be
continued to the Regular meeting of April 12, 1994.
City Attorney Vose said the Brown Act that goes into effect
on April 1, 1994 requires that agenda items contain
adequate information for the public to understand the
nature of the item, and without that information the
Council is limited solely to the question of whether to
agendize the item or not, the Council is not entitled to
discuss the item.
CITIZEN COMMENTS
Coming forward to address the Council at this time were:
Chris Boyle - Redondo Beach, said that in his opinion
the "new" Brown Act was really the Council's
friend; that the agenda needed tightening,
especially "Other Matters - Council"; said
getting to the drinking fountain on the bike path
still creates a problem, but he was pleasantly
surprised at the good job done on the north end
of the bicycle path; and,
Shirley Cassell - 611 Monterey Blvd., spoke regarding
the four -ten work schedule for City Hall staff;
said that after eight hours anyone's efficiency
decreased therefore she favored a return to a
five day work week; questioned who got the money
from the Chamber of Commerce proposal to close
lower Pier Avenue and sell booth space on June
19, 1994, said the City should share in the
profit from closing a public street.

REQUEST FOR 30 DAY EXTENSION OF TEMPORARY APPOINTMENT OF
TWO COMMUNITY SERVICE OFFICERS
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council extend for thirty days (30) days the temporary
appointment of two Community Service Officers.
Background:
This action is necessary as there is currently one absence due to an industrial medical leave and
one due to a recent resignation.
Analysis:
Section 2-33 of the Hermosa Beach City Code precludes a temporary appointment of an
individual to a permanent Civil Service position for more than six months without approval from
the City Council every thirty days.

AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL FOR USE OF VISA CARD
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution, thereby adding the
City Manager, Stephen R. Burrell, and Police Chief, Val Straser to the list of authorized
personnel eligible to utilize the City's VISA card.
Background:
The City has had possession of a card since 1981. VISA requirements dictate that each
eligible user be specifically identified by name and title via a City Council resolution.
Analysis:
Cards of the former City Manager and Public Safety Director have been destroyed, but
their names are still on the resolution of authorized personnel eligible to use cards. We
are requesting that the new names be substituted for those of the former City Manager and
Public Safety Director.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 4, 1994
TO: Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Stephen R. Burrell, City Manager
RE: Memorandum from Tri -Cities Adjudication
Program
It is recommended that Council receive the attached information
and direct staff to write a letter for the Mayor's signature
expressing oppositiop to AB2414.
1f
TRI -CITIES ADJUDICATION PROGRAM
HERMOSA BEACH, MANHATTAN BEACH & REDONDO BEACH
To:
Steve Burrell, Hermosa Beach City Manager; Val Strasser, Hermosa Beach Chief of
Police; Bill Smith, Manhattan Beach City Manager; Ted J. Mertens, Manhattan Beach
Chief of Police; William Kirchhoff, Redondo Beach City Manager; Mel Nichols,
Redondo Beach Chief of Police
From: Staff
Subject: Assembly Bill 2414
The Joint Cities Adjudication Program was created to provide administrative hearings for parking
violations on a regional basis. The purpose of this regional approach was to maximize scheduling options
for the public and to minimize costs to individual agencies. Our local program has operated successfully
since its inception meeting both public needs and agency needs.
During a scheduled meeting of the Tri -Cities Adjudication Staff on March 3, 1994 we received a copy of
proposed legislation Assembly Bill 2414 authored by Assembly Member Epple and Mr. Karsman of the
City of Los Angeles. This memo is to bring to your attention concerns the Tri -Cities Staff have regarding
the potential financial impact which could affect the adjudication and processing of Notice of Parking
Violations (NPV) in each of our communities if this legislation is passed.
Assembly Bill 2414 would require that "in addition to other requirements of employment... an examiner
shall ... have successfully completed the minimum educational requirements for application to the state bar
examination." If passed, this legislation would create a tremendous financial burden on many small cities
such as ours. An example of the magnitude of this legislation can be seen by the comparison of our cities
current expenditures for hearing officers, which consists of salaried employees assuming collateral duties,
amounting to approximately $20.00/hr. (including benefits), or in the case of Hermosa Beach a budgeted
position of $13.00/hr. versus the cost of attorneys fees of at least $125.00/hr. With an estimated 20 hours
per week for preparation and hearings the cost of an attorney could exceed $125,000 annually.
Another potential problem for our cities comes from a pending case out of Monterey, California. In this
case the question of due process has been raised regarding the legality of collecting the penalties imposed
by NPV's prior to having a hearing. If this ruling on this case is determined in the plaintiff's favor, it will
have a significant impact on the way our cities are currently collecting and processing penalties imposed
by the issuance of NPV's. It may be to the advantage of our cities to implement a change in the collection
of penalties and avoid potential litigation from a pending court decision in the Monterey, California case.
We recognize the continual budgetary restraints affecting our cities. The passage of AB2414 would
severely hinder the ability of our cities to administer and process Notice of Parking Violations. The bill is
now in the hands of the Transportation Committee. There is still time to stop the bill or to revise it so that
its goal can be met without significant financial impact. We plan to work with the California Public
Parking Association to lobby against this bill as written. We request your assistance in that effort and
further request that communications be sent to Sacramento voicing the above concerns.
March 31, 1994
Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular Meeting of
the Hermosa Beach City Council April 12, 1994
INFORMATION REPORT, GRACE PERIOD FOR PARKING PERMITS
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council receive and file this report.
Background:
At the City Council meeting of March 22, 1994, the City Council requested that staff report back
with information regarding the grace period for parking permits.
Analysis:
Annual parking permits expire on February 28th (or 29th) of each year. Renewal forms were
sent out February 2nd and 3rd; permits went on sale over the counter February 22nd.
Renewals by mail are encouraged and if postmarked by February 28th, will be processed prior
to the issuance of citations for an expired permit. The grace period on issuance of parking
citations for expired permits allows for ample time to obtain permits either in person or via the
mail, before enforcement begins. This year, the grace period was two weeks, or until March
14th. Enforcement officers began citing on that date for vehicles with expired permits.
The grace period on the issuance of citations is not advertised, however, most citizens coming
into the office seem to be aware of it. A grace period has been given since the inception of the
program. Citizens inquiring about the grace period are told that there is a grace period of at
least two weeks. Once the actual date is set for the grace period to end, inquirers are told the
date citing will begin.
The current procedure affords the resident the convenience of requesting new permits by mail,
up to the permit expiration date of February 28th, and ensures that timely renewals will receive
permits before enforcement begins. To date, staff has received few complaints about the grace
period, therefore no change in the procedure has been contemplated.
If the City Council prefers an alternative procedure, the grace period can be eliminated by
sending renewals out earlier, and requiring an earlier postmark for renewals by mail. Permits
would expire on February 28th and citing would always begin March 1st. Since past practice
has been to have a grace period, however, this alternative would probably generate a lot of
complaints.

1 KIWANIS HOLIDAY TREE LOT AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER
Recommendation
It is recommended by staff that Council approve the use of the Community Center lawn by
the Kiwanis Club to operate a Christmas tree lot for the 1994 holiday season.
Background
The Kiwanis Club has operated this lot for six years on the Community Center lawn
(southeast portion) and each year Council has approved this request.
The sale will be a fundraiser for the Kiwanis Club and will also benefit the Community
Center Foundation's improvement fund for the Community Center. The Kiwanis Club
agrees to donate $1,000 or 10 percent of their net profits, whichever is higher, to the
Community Center Foundation.
Analysis
The following list of terms will be in effect for 1994 season:
• The location of the trees shall be on the east lawn of the Community Center;
• The area can be fenced in and lighted;
• Temporary signs can be installed on the front lawn.
• Kiwanis will assume all costs for restoring the area back to its original state, with the
Public Works Department approving all work; said work to be completed by January
15, 1995;
• Kiwanis will be allowed to have a camper on 11th Place for 24 hour security purposes;
• Kiwanis will pay to the City any other costs incurred by the City with regard to this
project
• Kiwanis may occupy the site from November 14, 1994 through January 2, 1995;
• Kiwanis will provide liability insurance in the amount of $1 million.
The Kiwanis Club has proven over the years to be responsible and cooperative with all
City requirements and requests. The lot has proven to have minimal negative impact on
the condition of the lawn and on the smooth operation of the Community Center.
The Kiwanis Club will present the Community Center Foundation with a check for
$2,134.57 at tonight's Council meeting from the 1993 lot proceeds.

PARKING ENFORCEMENT
VEHICLE PURCHASE
RECOMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation of the Police Department and Community Services Division Staff that
Council :
1. Authorize the purchase of three (3) "GO -4" gas powered utility parking enforcement
vehicles for a total cost of $49,745.00, which includes the base price of $14,671.00 each
plus tax and delivery charges.
BACKGROUND:
The purchase of these vehicles described herein was authorized and funds were appropriated in
the 1993-94 adopted budget. The source of the funds for these vehicles is the General Fund.
The original request for the purchase of these vehicles was brought to the City Council for
approval at the City Council meeting of March 8, 1994. It was staffs' request at that time to
purchase these "GO -4" vehicles from Frankson's Inc., the only authorized dealer in Southern
California, and that the Formal Bid Process be waived. It was the direction of Council to deny
staffs' request to waive the Formal Bid Process .
Following Councils directive, a Request for Proposal was completed and sent out. The Formal
Bid Process was conducted, closing at 1000 hours, March 31, 1994. The City Clerk's Office
received two sealed bids. The first bid was from Frankson's Inc. with a list price of $14,671.00
each. Frankson's bid did not change.The second sealed bid was from Pacific Equipment &
Irrigation, Inc., the distributor of the Cushman parking enforcement vehicles, they returned the
Request For Proposal stamped, "NO BID".
ANALYSIS:
The parking enforcement vehicles, "GO -4" which staff is requesting, are three - wheeled gas
powered scooter type vehicles. These vehicles are the same type of parking enforcement vehicles
being used by the Cities of Manhattan Beach, Santa Monica, Ventura, San Bernadino and San
Diego California. The named cities have found the "GO -4" scooters to be more mechanically
reliable, better suited for city parking enforcement and safer to operate than the Cushman
scooters. Currently, only 4 or 5 of Hermosa's eleven Cushmans are operable. The three new
"GO -4s" would replace four of the 1986-87 Cushman scooters which have become mechanically
obsolete and financially impracticable to maintain. The Cushmans being replaced will be
auctioned or sold for parts.
1i
The staff conducted tests using the "GO -4" vehicles in our city with very favorable results.
Again it is staffs' recommendation that City Council approve the purchase of these vehicles, as
they directly affect the Community Services Division's effectiveness to do their assignments and
reduce costs associated with "Down Time" for equipment and personnel.

RE: Commercial Development Standards in the Downtown Area (C-2 zone)
INITIATED BY STAFF
Recommendation
Adopt the attached Resolution of Intent to study commercial development standards.
Discussion
Staff has recently received correspondence in regards to two commercial standards that may
be inhibiting desired commercial activity in the downtown area: 1) Commercial building
setbacks adjacent to residential areas, and 2) The distance requirement from residential uses
for operation of an off -sale alcohol establishment.
In the interest of promoting revitalization of the downtown district staff believe these issues
are ripe for discussion, and possible consideration of code changes.
Further, while discussing these two issues other standards could be examined for possible
changes (e.g. permitted outdoor uses/activities).

Subject: Request for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
Dear Esteemed City Council Members:
As an Overview
We (Mr. and Mrs. Stephen C. Douglas) not only are eight year residents of Hermosa
Beach, but we also have owned the Beach Market, located at 1325 Hermosa Avenue,
since the Fall of 1990. The Beach Market is a convenience store, but does not have an
off -sale alcohol beverage license. We would be deeply appreciative if you would review
our request for a "Conditional Use Permit (CUP)" for the off -sale of alcohol beverages.
We realize that Appendix A -Zoning, Section 10-8 of the Hermosa Beach Ordinances
requires that any new off -sale alcohol beverage establishment shall be a minimum of
one hundred feet from any residential use and/or zone. However, from the information
presented herein, we feel confident that you will see that the Beach Market has a very
positive influence on our community and the provision of the requested CUP will enable
us to continue to provide a long-term benefit to our neighborhood.
Our Community Contributions
Since our acquisition of the Beach Market, we have consistently provided service to the
Hermosa Beach City and community — this includes the following:
• Hermosc. Beach Beaut ficatLon Award, from. the Chamber of
Commerce.
• Donation of Two Pawn trees on Herwwsa Avenue.
• Free water suppiy to aLL vendors at the Hermosa Street Fairs
(twice yearly).
• Chamber of Commerce Donations and Membership.
• Engage a FULL Tivne Craning and Grounds Maintenance
Crew to ensure that the Beach Market maintains its "clean,
neighborly" appearance.

Beach Market, Inc.
Beach Market Site Plan
If you notice on the attached drawing, you will see that only one property (and NOT its
residence building) is actually within the one hundred feet limit. The other properties
are zoned commercial (although occupied as living quarters by tenants of the absentee
landlords). Thus, the effectual proximity of the residentially zoned areas is confined to
at most one property and is separated from the Beach Market by a street and parking
lot.
Our Declaration
If provided with the privilege of the Conditional Use Permit, we will
strictly abide by all of the City, State and/or Federal laws
concerning the off -sale of alcoholic beverages.
Attached is the site drawing and our application for the Conditional Use Permit. We
deeply appreciate the investment of your time and expertise required to review our
application.
Sincerely,
Stephen C. and Celina C. Douglas

HERMOSA BEACH CROSSING GUARD MAINTENANCE DISTRICT 1994 - 1995
ADOPTION OF RESOLUTIONS REGARDING THE ENGINEER'S REPORT AND
SETTING JUNE 14, 1994, FOR A PUBLIC HEARING
Recommendation:
It is recommended that City Council:
1. Adopt the attached resolution approving the report of the
Director of Public Works of said City made pursuant to the
requirements of Resolution No. 94-5661.
2. Adopt the attached resolution of intent to order certain
Crossing guard services pursuant to the "Crossing Guard
Maintenance District Act of 1974", Chapter 3.5, Articles 1,
2, 3 and 4, Sections 55530 through 55570 of the Government
Code of the State of California, at certain locations in the
said City for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1994 through
June 30, 1995; setting June 14, 1994 to accept public input
on the matter of the proposed Crossing Guard District.
Background:
On February 22, 1994, City Council adopted resolution 94-5661
ordering the preparation of a report for the formation of the
Hermosa Beach Crossing Guard Maintenance District No. 1994 -
1995.
Analysis:
Adoption of both resolutions is necessary at this time so that a
public hearing can be held to take testimony on the assessments.
The first Resolution approves the report prepared by the Director
of Public Works for the City's Crossing Guard Assessment
District. Its adoption confirms that the report has been

estimated assessment for the proposed Crossing Guard Maintenance
District and is on file in the City Clerk's office. The district

equivalent dwelling units. The annual assessment fee is $5.05
per unit.

possible thereafter) to accept public input on the matter of the
proposed Crossing Guard Maintenance District and assessment. At

Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular Meeting of
the Hermosa Beach City Council April 12, 1994
HERMOSA BEACH LANDSCAPING AND STREET LIGHTING DISTRICT 1994-1995
ADOPTION OF RESOLUTIONS REGARDING THE ENGINEER'S REPORT AND
SETTING JUNE 14, 1994, FOR A PUBLIC HEARING
Recommendation:
It is recommended that City Council:
1. Adopt the attached resolution approving the report of the
Director of Public Works of said City made pursuant to the
requirements of Resolution No. 94-5662.
2. Adopt the attached resolution of intent to order certain
landscaping and street lighting appurtenances to be installed
and maintained and electric current to be furnished for
street lighting fixtures throughout the City for the fiscal
year beginning July 1, 1994 through June 30, 1995; setting
June 14, 1994, to accept public input on the matter of the
proposed Landscaping and Street Lighting District.
Background:
On February 22, 1994, City Council adopted Resolution No. 94-5662
ordering the preparation of a report for the formation of the
Hermosa Beach Landscaping and Street Lighting Maintenance
District 1994-1995.
Analysis:
In keeping with the Council's desire to keep the cost of our
special districts as low as possible, the Council in FY 1990-91
amended the City's policy to have the assessment and revenue be
less than the cost of the district operations. This policy was
to continue until the fund balance reduced back to the 1988 level
($1,089,118).
Adoption of the attached resolution is to provide approximately
30% of the funds necessary to continue the operation of the
City's landscaping and street lighting system for one year.
Adoption of both resolutions is necessary at this time so that a
public hearing can be held to take testimony on the assessments.
The first Resolution approves the report prepared by the Director
of Public Works. Its adoption confirms that the report has been
prepared prior to the public hearing. This report covers matters
relating to the proposed landscaping and Street Lighting
Maintenance District and is on file in the City Clerk's office.
The district assessments for this year are $16.84 per equivalent
- 1 -
In
dwelling unit and are the same equivalent dwelling unit cost as
used last year.
The adoption of the second resolution provides for the setting of
a public hearing for June 14, 1994, at 8:00 p.m. (or as soon as
possible thereafter). At the conclusion of the public hearing on
June 14, 1994, the City Council will be provided with a
resolution it may adopt concerning the assessment district.
As mentioned earlier, all decisions will be made at the public
hearing and adoption of this resolution will only confirm that
the report has been prepared prior to the public hearing.
Alternatives:
An alternative available to City Council is:
1. Let the District lapse; thereby, causing a potential
increased General Fund obligation of $182,478.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, TO AMEND
PORTIONS OF ARTICLE 13.5 OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE, SIGNS, TO

WHEREAS, the City Council held a public hearing on March 22,
1994 to consider oral and written testimony and made the
following Findings:
A. Exceptions for historic signs from the nonconforming
provisions of the sign ordinance will encourage the
protection, preservation and long term maintenance of such
signs, and contribute to preserving some of the historic
landmarks of the city;
B. Temporary exceptions for grand opening promotions from
prohibitions for flags, pennants, balloons, and maximum sign
area requirements are reasonable to help new businesses
establish themselves and be successful in the City;
C. The proposed amendments are categorically exempt from the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act
pursuant to Section 15311 of the State CEQA Guidelines,
because the proposed amendments will effect the construction
or placement of minor structures; on premises signs.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Hermosa
Beach, California, does hereby ordain that the zoning ordinance
text be amended as follows:
SECTION 1. Add the following to Section 13.5-17, Nonconforming
signs:
"Exception. The above provisions may be waived by the
Planning Commission for a sign or signs found to be of
historic value. The Commission shall base its determination
on a consideration of the following criteria:
Age of sign - is it more than 25 years old; and
Business it advertised - did the business or activity
being advertised have some prominent place in the
history of Hermosa Beach; and

Appearance - does the sign have any attractive or

arts/architectural history?
An exception may be granted to allow repair or replication of
the sign by the procedure set forth in Section 13.5-20, Sign
Review, sub -section (b) and (c).
If an exception is granted, and in order to protect the
historic character of the signs, no additional sign shall be
permitted on the premises."

Signs.
"(6) Exception for grand openings. The requirements of
sub -section (1) regarding the allowable area for temporary
signs, shall not apply to one time grand opening promotional
events. Further, signs otherwise not allowed by this
ordinance such as flags, pennants, and balloons may be
permitted in conjunction with a promotional grand opening,
but shall be subject to sub -section (2), duration of display,
and (3) application."

force and effect from and after thirty (30) days of
its final passage and adoption.
SECTION 4. Prior to the expiration of fifteen (15) days after
the date of its adoption, the City Clerk shall cause
this ordinance to be published in the Easy Reader, a
weekly newspaper of general circulation published and

Honorable Mayor and Members of the
Hermosa Beach City Council
Regular Meeting of
April 12, 1994
ORDINANCE: PROHIBITION OF DOGS ON BILTMORE PARK AND
SCHOOL GROUNDS
Recommendation
It is recommended by the Parks, Recreation and Community Resources Commission that
Council adopt the attached amendment to the Parks Regulations Ordinance that would
prohibit dogs on active school grounds and at the Biltmore Park site.
Background
The City currently allows dogs on leash on most City parks (beaches excluded). On June
8, 1993, City Council adopted an amendment that prohibited dogs on the City's two (2)
tot lots.
At the Commission's request, this issue was reviewed at the March 17, 1994 meeting.
Based on that discussion, the Commission recommended that the prohibition be extended
to include schools and the Biltmore Park site.
Analysis
While our neighboring cities have more restrictive dog ordinances (i.e., Manhattan Beach
allows dogs on the Greenbelt only and Redondo Beach only in the designated Dog Park),
the Commission decided to continue focusing on limited prohibitions over a City wide
approach at this time. This determination was made with the assumption that the majority
of dog owners are conscientious about cleaning -up after their pets and in consideration of
the limited open space areas in residential neighborhoods throughout the City.
Staff and the Commissioners have fielded complaints from residents about special
problems at the school sites (Hermosa Valley and Hermosa View) both with a lack of
attention to leash laws and to cleaning -up fecal matter. With the same logic that applied
to the tot lots, the Commission wishes to provide additional restrictions where the
concentration of youngsters is the greatest.
The Biltmore Park conceptual program (approved by Council at the March 22, 1994
meeting) requested that dogs not be allowed on the .9 acre site. This recommendation
was made by the Commission due to the desire to preserve landscape elements on the
park; to assist with the ease of maintenance; to remain consistent with ordinances at the
beach; and to provide a peaceful locale for pedestrians. /
1
2b
The Commission recognizes that just as some people are violating the existing ordinances,
the possibility for non-compliance with the proposed amendment has to be considered.
They believe, however, that by totally prohibiting dogs in these areas, enforcement efforts
would be easier and that park visitors and school officials would be better able to point
out restrictions to others.
The parks that would still be open to dogs on leash include:
• Clark Field
• Hermosa Valley Greenbelt
• Edith Rodaway Friendship Park
• Valley Park
• All parketten
Other alternatives available to Council include:
1) Do not amend ordinance.
2) Add other parks to prohibition list.
3) Request additional information.
ATTACHMENTS:
Ordinance adopted June 8, 1993 amending the Parks Regulations Section 22-3.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Regular Meeting of
Hermosa Beach City Council April 12, 1994
SUBJECT: MUNICIPAL CODE TEXT AMENDMENT REGARDING STREET
CLOSURES FOR SPECIAL EVENTS
PURPOSE: TO ALLOW TEMPORARY STREET CLOSURES FOR SPECIAL EVENTS
INITIATED BY CITY COUNCIL
Staff Recommendation
1. To introduce the attached ordinance to amend the Municipal
Code to allow temporary closure and use of public streets for
special events such as street festivals.
2. To adopt the attached resolution setting forth the minimum
requirements to be included in permits issued for special
events that require street closures.
Background
At the meeting of 12/14/93 the City Council adopted an ordinance
and resolution to amend the Municipal Code and to establish
procedures and minimum requirements to allow temporary use of
public sidewalks for sidewalk sales. Temporary use and closure
of public streets was not addressed at that time as it had not
been sufficiently investigated by staff.
In addition to sidewalk sales, the Planning Commission also
recommended that the temporary use and closure of streets for
special events and street festivals be allowed (e.g. the biannual
"Fiesta De Las Artes," and the weekly Farmer's Market).
The Chamber of Commerce is also requesting approval of a business
promotion event during the Women's professional Volleyball
tournament on June 5, 1994, which would include closure of Pier
Avenue between Hermosa Avenue and Beach Drive (see attached
letter).
Analysis
Staff is recommending that the Municipal Code, Section 29-7, be
further amended to also allow temporary use and closure of
streets. This type of temporary use of the public right-of-way
differs from sidewalk sales, as it involves the complete closure
of streets, and use of the street by businesses and/or arts and
crafts dealers from outside the city.
Obviously the code should be written to accommodate the biannual
"Fiesta De Las Artes", and the weekly Farmer's Market, but the
Council needs to consider whether opportunities for additional
special events or street festivals, such as that being requested
by the Chamber of Commerce, should be allowed.
Staff is recommending that the ordinance accommodate the existing
events, and also allow opportunities for other special events
that would be enhanced by using public streets. For example,
closure of Pier Avenue west of Hermosa Avenue could occur during
such events as the Volleyball Tournaments.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Regular Meeting
Hermosa Beach City Council December 14, 1993
SUBJECT: SPECIAL STUDY 93-9 AND MUNICIPAL AND ZONING CODE TEXT
AMENDMENTS
PURPOSE: TO ALLOW TEMPORARY OUTSIDE MERCHANDISE SALES AND
OUTSIDE DINING INCLUDING IN THE PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY
FOR SIDEWALK SALES AND STREET FESTIVALS
INITIATED BY CITY COUNCIL
Planning Commission and Staff Recommendations
1. To introduce the attached ordinance to amend the Municipal
Code to allow temporary use of public sidewalks for sidewalk
sales and to amend the zoning ordinance to allow temporary
outdoor uses on private property in conjunction with such
events.
2. To adopt the attached resolution setting forth the minimum
requirements to be included in permits issued for a sidewalk
sales.
3. To further amend the Municipal Code to address the use of
streets for major street festivals (e.g. "Fiesta De Las
Artes").
Background
The Planning Commission, at their meeting of December 7, 1993,
based on input from the Downtown Business Area Enhancement
District Advisory Commission recommended the establishment of
procedures and text amendments to allow sidewalk sales subject to
a permit. This includes text amendments to Municipal Code and
the zoning code.
The Commission further recommended that amendments to the
Municipal Code be added to address the temporary use of streets
for such events as street festivals (e.g. the biannual "Fiesta De
Las Artes.")
The City Council, at their meeting of October 12, 1993, adopted a
resolution of intent to direct the Planning Commission, with
input from the DBAEDAC, to study the request of the Chamber of
Commerce to allow sidewalk sales.
For further background please refer to the attached minutes and
staff reports.
Analysis
The proposed Ordinance would amend the Municipal Code, Section
29-7, to allow temporary use of streets and sidewalks subject to
a permit obtained from the City Council for sidewalk sales.
Further, it would amend the zoning ordinance, Section 8-5(2), to
- 1 -
6
allow temporary outdoor uses on private property in conjunction
with authorized sidewalk sales.
In regards to the additional amendments requested by the Planning
Commission to address street festivals, the Public Works
Department did not have the time to investigate the appropriate
way to amend the Streets and Sidewalks section of the Municipal
code. Staff believes this should be addressed at a later date so
as not to delay these provisions to allow sidewalk sales.
For further analysis please refer to the attached Planning
Commission Staff Report.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Regular Meeting of
Hermosa Beach City Council April 12, 1994
SUBJECT: TEXT AMENDMENT
PURPOSE: TO CONSIDER TEXT AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLE 13,
NONCONFORMING BUILDINGS AND STRUCTURES
INITIATED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION
Planning Commission Recommendation
To amend Article 13, as follows:
a) To add a definition and procedure to determine what
constitutes wall removal
b) To amend the language of the "intent" sections 13-3 and
13-7, including criteria for allowing significant
removal of existing structures, and other clarifications
c) To eliminate the allowance for any remodeling or
expansion of nonconforming residential uses in a
commercial zone
Background
At their meeting of February 19, 1994, the Planning Commission
took final action to recommend the subject amendments. The final
recommendation was a result of several previous public hearings
and discussions on this matter, dating back to July of 1993.
The subject study was initiated by the Planning Commission on
July 20, 1993, because of concerns of how Article 13 applied to
exceptionally old buildings, and buildings with unknown existing
damage. The concerns arose due to specific projects where
demolition work revealed previously unforseen damage to the
structures.
The study was also initiated because the Commission wished to
clarify some provisions of Article 13, and to add a clear
definition of what constitutes wall removal.
For further background please refer to the previous staff reports
and minutes.
Analysis
The following summarizes the main points of the proposed
amendments:
WALL REMOVAL: The proposed text changes include added language to
add a definition and procedure to determine what constitutes wall
removal. It states that when any part of a wall is removed it is
considered demolished, unless one surface of the wall and the
supporting frame is kept intact, and describes how lineal feet of
wall removal is calculated.
- 1 -
4
This language is taken from a policy statement adopted by the
Planning Commission on September 21, 1993. Previously, it was
not clear what constituted removal of existing walls. and the
Commission was concerned that leaving only the wall framing was
being allowed.
SIGNIFICANT AND UNEXPECTED STRUCTURAL REMOVAL: The intent
portion of both Sections 13-3 and 13-7 are amended to be less
rigid in cases where significant or greater removal of the
structure becomes necessary because of existing damage. Rather
than prohibiting the project when these conditions are found, the
amended language gives the Planning Commission discretion to
allow more extensive demolition.
RESIDENTIAL USES IN COMMERCIAL ZONES: The amended language for
Section 13-3, regarding nonconforming uses, is amended to
prohibit remodeling and expansion of nonconforming residential
uses in commercial zones. This amendment carries out a policy
contained in the revised Land Use Element.
The amended text also includes some clarifications. For the
analysis please refer to the previous Planning Commission staff
reports.

ORDINANCE 94 -
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH,
CALIFORNIA, TO AMEND PORTIONS OF ARTICLE 13 OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE
TEXT, IN REGARDS TO NONCONFORMING USES AND BUILDINGS, FOR PURPOSES OF
CLARIFICATION
WHEREAS, the City Council held a public hearing on April 12, to consider the
recommendation of the Planning Commission to amend portions of Article 13 and to receive oral
and written testimony and made the following Findings:
A. Rules regarding the allowable remodeling and expansions to nonconforming residential uses
and buildings need clarification, including a definition and procedure for determining what
constitutes wall removal; clarification on the allowable expansions for nonconforming
residential uses in commercial zones; and other clarifications to minimize ambiguity and
confusion;
B. The proposed amendments are exempt from the requirements of the California
Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines,
because the proposed amendments are for clarification purposes only and there is no
possibility they may have a significant effect on the environment.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach, California,
hereby ordains that the zoning ordinance text be amended as follows:
SECTION 1. Eliminate Section 13-2, Nonconforming use of a conforming building
SECTION 2. Amend Section 13-3, including sub -sections (a) and (b) to read as follows:

The nonconforming commercial or manufacturing use of a conforming or nonconforming
building, and any nonconforming residential use in a commercial or manufacturing zone and any
nonconforming use of land may be continued, provided such nonconforming use shall not be
expanded or enlarged nor shall any structural alteration be made except those required by law.
(Regulations for uses nonconforming to parking are contained in Article 11.5) If such
nonconforming use is vacated or discontinued for ninety (90) consecutive days or more, the
nonconforming use will be deemed abandoned and any future use of such building or structure shall
conform to the provisions of the zone in which it is located.
Enlargement of windows and door openings in interior and exterior walls are considered
minor and not structural alterations; repairs and/or replacement to plumbing, electrical wiring, or
such similar work, and those required by law or as determined by the Building official are not
structural alterations
A nonconforming residential use of a conforming or nonconforming residential structure in
a residential zone may be remodeled and/or expanded when it is in compliance with the intent,
purpose, standards and requirements as specified in the following:
Intent and purpose of this section is to allow remodeling and expansion to residential structures in
residential zones, which are in sound condition, in a manner that provided that the remodeling or
expansion does not ultimately result in significant removal of existing structures. Where a structure
is significantly -damaged by dry rot, termites, or similar damage and removal of significant portions
of the structure is necessary, recommended, or becomes necessary during the demolition process
the owner of the
property or the agent shall seek from the planning commission approval to increase the extent of the
demolition prior to commencing such work. The intent of this ordinance is to limit the amount of
remodeling and expansion permitted where these conditions are present and only after review and
approval by the Planning commission of the project and their satisfaction that the following criteria
are met:
• Reasonable efforts have been made to minimize or reduce existing nonconformities where
feasible; and,
• Existing nonconformities to remain are minor in nature and prevalent or common for the
neighborhood; and,
• The project poses no threat or harm or is in any way detrimental to surrounding property.
All structures shall require a termite and dry rot inspection by a ben -a -fide licensed company, to
determine amount of structural removal, if any, that will be necessary because of damage.
(a) The following portions of the existing structure may be removed:
(1) When adding additional stories, portions of the roof as necessary may be removed

(2) When adding to any side of a structure, walls may be removed to enlarge existing
rooms, and/or to provide interior access as necessary for logical expansion of the
existing structure. A maximum combinationof ten (10) percent of the existing lineal
feet of exterior walls, as described below aedief and a maximum of ten (10) percent
of floor area may be removed whether necessitated by the termite and dry rot
inspection or by the remodeling, or both.
(3)
When any portion of a wall is demolished the corresponding lineal feet of that part of
the wall shall be considered removed, unless the supporting frame and one surface of
the wall is kept completely intact. For wall openings for the purpose of window
and/or door installation, only the corresponding lineal feet of that portion of the
removed wall shall count towards wall removal.
Removal of any other portions of an existing structure other than those noted in
subsections (1) and (2) above, shall require submittal of a demolition plan for review
by the planning commission to determine whether the proposed plan meets the intent
and purpose of this section.
(b) Nonconforming buildings or conforming buildings containing nonconforming uses and
structures may be expanded and/or remodeled to a cumulative maximum of fifty (50) percent
of the replacement cost of the existing structure(s) as it existed on (e'er ctive date of
ordinance No. 89 1008) October 26, 1989 and as determined by the building department
which shall use current building valuation data provided by the International Conference of
Building Officials (ICBO). Interior remodeling shall be computed at fifty (50) percent of the
ICBG building valuation for new construction. When computing remodeled area, i.e.
relocation or removal of interior walls, fifty (50) percent of the total area affected by the
relocation or removal of the wall shall be included in the computation. For example, if a wall

of the dining room and kitchen together. (Refer to section 13-7 for example). For purposes
of this section a wall shall be considered removed when any portion of it is demolished,
unless the supporting frame and one surface of the wall is kept completely intact.
Any garage expansion for vehicle parking shall not be included as part of the allowed fifty
(50) percent expansion as noted in this section."
SECTION 3. Amend Section 13-7, including sub -sections (a) and (b) to read as follows:
"Section 13-7. Conforming uses of nonconforming structures
Nonconforming commercial or manufacturing structures may be maintained and the use
therein continued, provided that such building shall not be expanded or enlarged, nor shall any
structural alteration be made except as required by law. (Regulations for structures nonconforming
to parking requirements are contained in Article 11.5)

A nonconforming residential structure may be remodeled and/or expanded when it is in
compliance with the intent, purpose, standards and requirements as specified in the following:
Intent and purpose of this section is to allow remodeling and expansion to nonconforming
residential structures in sound condition, a manner that provided that the remodeling or expansion
does not ultimately -result in significant removal of existing structures. Where a structure is
significantly damaged by dry rot, termites, or similar damage and removal of significant portions of
the structure is necessary, recommended, or becomes necessary during the demolition process this
• the owner of the property
or the agent shall seek from the planning commission approval to increase the extent of the
demolition prior to commencing such work. The intent of this ordinance is to limit the amount of
remodeling and expansion permitted where these conditions are present and only after review and
approval by the Planning Commission of the project, and their satisfaction that the following criteria
are met:
• Reasonable efforts have been made to minimize or reduce existing nonconformities where
feasible; and,
• Existing nonconformities to remain are minor in nature and prevalent or common for the
neighborhood; and,
• The project poses no threat or harm or is in any way detrimental to surrounding property.
•
All structures shall require a termite and dry rot inspection by a bona -fide licensed company, to
determine amount of structural removal, if any, that will be necessary because of damage.
(a) The following portions of the existing structure may be removed:
(1) When adding additional stories, portions of the roof as necessary may be removed
(2) when adding to any side of a structure, walls may be removed to enlarge existing
rooms, and/or to provide interior access as necessary for logical expansion of the
existing structure. A maximum combination of thirty(30) percent of the existing
lineal feet of exterior walls, as described below and/e-r and a maximum of thirty
percent of floor area may be removed whether necessitated by the termite and dry rot
inspection or by the remodeling, or both.

the wall is kept completely intact. For wall openings for the purpose of window
and/or door installation, only the corresponding lineal feet of that portion of the
removed wall shall count towards wall removal.
Removal of any other portions of an existing structure other than those noted in
subsections (1) and (2) above, shall require submittal of a demolition plan for review
by the planning commission to determine whether the proposed plan meets the intent
and purpose of this section.
(b) Nonconforming structures may be expanded and/or remodeled to a cumulative
maximum of fifty (50) percent of the replacement cost of the existing structure(s) as it
existed on (effective date of ordinance No. 89 1008) October 26, 1989 and as determined by
the building department which shall use current building valuation data provided by the
International Conference of Building Officials (ICBO). Interior remodeling shall be
computed at fifty (50) percent of the ICBO building valuation for new construction. When
computing remodeled area„ i.e. relocation or removal of interior walls, fifty (50) percent of
the total area affected by the relocation or removal of the wall shall be included in the
computation. For example, if a wall between the dining room and kitchen is removed, the
area counted includes fifty (50) percent of the dining room and kitchen together. For
purposes of this section a wall shall be considered removed when any portion of it is
demolished, unless the supporting frame and one surface of the wall is kept completely
intact.
Any garage expansion for vehicle parking shall not be included as part of the allowed fifty
(50) percent expansion as noted in this section."
SECTION 4. Amend Section 13-1 to read as follows:
"Section 13-1. Nonconforming use limits other uses.
While a nonconforming use exists on any lot, and it is the only use on the lot. no new
use may be established thereon even though such other use would be a conforming use.
While a nonconforming use occupies a portion of a lot or building with multiple uses no new
use may be established within that portion of the lot or building which the existing
nonconforming use occupies."
SECTION 5. Amend the following definitions in the Definition section of the zoning ordinance to
read as follows:
"Sec. 239. Nonconforming building, or structure.
"Nonconforming building" means a building, structure, or portion thereof, which was
lawfully erected or altered and maintained, but which, . ..

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Regular Meeting of
Hermosa Beach City Council April 12, 1994
SUBJECT: TEXT AMENDMENT
PURPOSE: TEXT AMENDMENT TO AMEND THE DEFINITION OF "BUILDING
HEIGHT" AND TO ADD A DEFINITION OF "GRADE"
INITIATED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION
Planning Commission Recommendation
To amend the zoning ordinance to to amend the definition for
"building height" and to add a definition for "grade" from which
building height is measured (see the attached ordinances).
Background
At their meeting of March 1, 1994, the Planning Commission voted to
recommend an amendment to the definition of "building height" and
to add a definition of "grade".
The subject text amendment was initiated by the Planning Commission
on July 20, 1993. Since that time the Commission has compared
building height definitions from other cities, and considered
suggestions of staff for a more detailed definition.
For further background please refer to the staff reports and
minutes.
Analysis
The proposed text amendment clarifies and only slightly modifies
the existing definition of building height. It will require only
moderate adjustments in the city's existing practice for
determining building height (see the attached comparison of
existing and proposed definitions).
The two most notable changes are that the definition would no
longer exclude the "building code required parapet fire wall" from
the building height, and would no longer cause the height
measurement to be lowered when grade is lowered as part of a
project.
This final recommended definition of the Commission is simple and
includes a graphic to make it easy to understand. The Commission
had earlier considered a more complex and fully detailed
definition, which described how building height is measured (as set
forth in the attached "Draft Resolution"), but instead chose a less
cumbersome definition.
Staff and the Commission are aware that the proposed definition
does not directly address unusual lots with unusual topography
(e.g. an extremely convex sloping lot). Since no specific language
1
is included to provide an alternative method for determining height
in these rare situations, an applicant/developer would have the
opportunity to appeal an interpretation of staff to the Commission
or apply for a variance.

Honorable Mayor and Members of Regular Meeting of
the Hermosa Beach City Council April 12, 1994
SUBJECT: 1994 SELF CERTIFICATION OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE 1993
CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (CMP).
LOCATION: CITYWIDE
INITIATED BY PLANNING STAFF
PURPOSE: ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION FINDING THE CITY TO BE IN
COMPLIANCE WITH THE 1993 CONGESTION MANAGEMENT
PROGRAM AND ADOPTING THE CMP LOCAL
IMPLEMENTATION REPORT.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the attached resolution.
Background:
Last year, the City of Hermosa beach met its requirements by adopting and implementing,
a transportation Demand Management (TDM) ordinance and Land Use Analysis Program.
The City also submitted their annual traffic counts and level of service (LOS) calculations
for the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Artesia Blvd.
Analysis:
The Congestion Management Program (CMP) is a state -mandated program that became
effective with voter approval of Proposition 111, the nine cent state gas tax increase, in
June 1990. The purpose of this program is to address traffic congestion in a
comprehensive manner by linking transportation, land use, and air quality decisions.
All local jurisdictions are required to comply with the CMP in order to continue receiving
their portion of state gas tax money generated pursuant to Proposition 111 and to
preserve their eligibility for state and federal funding on local transportation projects.
This year the City must submit a Local Implementation report and institute a new
Development Tracking System beginning June 1, 1994. This information will become part
of a county "deficiency planning procedure" which is currently under development. A
self -certification resolution (attached) must be adopted by the City Council after a public
hearing and transmitted to the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority
(MTA) by May 1, 1994.
The deficiency planning procedure will essentially function as an accounting ledger of
credits and debits. Local programs that alleviate traffic congestion, i.e. traffic signal
synchronization or alternate work schedules, become credits. Conversely, local actions
that have the potential to increase congestion, i.e. approval of new developments that
s
The deficiency planning procedure will essentially function as an accounting ledger of
credits and debits. Local programs that alleviate traffic congestion, i.e. traffic signal
synchronization or alternate work schedules, become credits. Conversely, local actions
that have the potential to increase congestion, i.e. approval of new developments that
generate vehicle trips without providing any accompanying alleviation measures, become
debits. If the number of debits exceeds the number of credits accumulated by a local
jurisdiction, the MTA can make a determination that the local jurisdiction is in
noncompliance with the CMP.
The Local Implementation Report, which provides the baseline for jurisdictional credits, is
simply an inventory of all transportation improvements implemented by the City or a
developer between January 1, 1990 and April 30, 1994 that are eligible for transportation
Improvement Credits under the CMP.
The City must begin tracking all new development activity as of June 1, 1994. New
development activity will be recorded into this tracking system at the time of building
permit issuance, with the annual reporting period running from June 1 to May 31 of the
next year. Cities will be required to report all building permits issued, broken down by the
type of land use and provide the total number of dwelling units or gross square footage for
each land use type. Any building permits issued for new development projects which do
not include congestion mitigation strategies will generate debits based on the size of the
development. The information from this tracking system will be used by the MTA to set
the annual congestion mitigation goal for each city.

BACKGROUND STUDY
1994 CMP LOCAL CONFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
BACKGROUND:
The Congestion Management Program (CMP) is a state -mandated program
enacted by the state legislature with the passage of Assembly Bill
471 in 1989. California Government Code Sections 65070, 65072,
65081, and 65082 provide the legal framework for this program. The
CMP implementation requirements became effective with voter
approval of Proposition 111 in June 1990, which provided for a nine
cent increase in the state gas tax over a five year period. The
purpose of this program is to address traffic congestion in a
comprehensive manner by linking transportation, land use and air
quality decisions.
The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA)
is the designated Congestion Management Agency for Los Angeles
County. MTA has been charged with the responsibility of preparing
the 1992 and 1993 CMPs, and the biennial updates thereafter.
All local jurisdictions are required to conform to the CMP local
requirements in order to continue receiving their portion of state
gas money allocated by Section 2105 of the California Streets and
Highways Code (Proposition 111), as well as to preserve their
eligibility for state and federal funding for transportation
projects.
1992 CMP Local Conformance Requirements
The 1992 CMP required all local jurisdictions to adopt and
implement a CMP Land Use Analysis Program and a Transportation
Demand Management (TDM) ordinance. Certain jurisdictions were also
required to provide annual traffic monitoring information to
determine levels of service (LOS) on the CMP Highway System. Since
Artesia Boulevard is part of the CMP Highway System, the City of
Gardena was required to comply with all of these 1992 CMP local
provisions.
The Gardena City Council adopted Resolution No. 4181 on March 9,
1993, which amended the City's Environmental Quality Guidelines to
comply with the CMP Land Use Analysis Program by: (a) requiring a
Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) to be performed on all
projects involving an environmental impact report (EIR); and (2)
notifying and consulting with MTA and any affected transit agencies
whenever an EIR is being prepared.
On March 23, 1993, the Gardena City Council adopted Ordinance No.
1465, which met the CMP legal requirements for a TDM ordinance by
mandating the inclusion of standard commuter amenities for all
1
1
nonresidential developments of 25,000 square feet or greater.
A Negative Declaration was prepared on March 11, 1993 for these
local CMP actions in accordance with the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA). In addition, the City contracted with MTA to
conduct annual traffic counts and LOS calculations for the
Artesia/Vermont and Artesia/Western arterial intersections, in
compliance with the CMP Highway System monitoring requirements.
By adoption of Resolution No. 4196 on July 13, 1993, the Gardena
City Council made a determination that the City was in compliance
with the 1992 CMP and approved the CMP Conformance Checklist. MTA
has confirmed in writing that the City of Gardena met the local
requirements of the 1992 CMP (correspondence dated August 12,
1993).
1993 CMP Local Conformance Requirements
In contrast to the one year conformance process established in the
1992 CMP, the 1993 CMP outlines ongoing conformance procedures that
incorporates a new deficiency planning process. CMP statute
requires the preparation of deficiency plans when portions of the
CMP Highway System does not meet the established LOS standard, as
is the case with Los Angeles County. All local jurisdictions in
Los Angeles County must participate in the countywide deficiency
planning process regardless of their location or number of CMP
intersections.
The 1994 conformance procedures for local jurisdictions, mandated
by the 1993 CMP, differs from the required procedures for
subsequent years due to the need to set up the deficiency planning
mechanism. For 1994, local CMP conformance will be based on
meeting the following major program responsibilities, which must be
confirmed in a self -certification resolution adopted at a noticed
public hearing by May 1, 1994:
1. Continued implementation of the TDM ordinance. Any
amendments to the TDM ordinance must be submitted to MTA
prior to local adoption.
2. Continued implementation of the Land Use Analysis
Program. Any amendments to the Land Use Analysis Program
must be submitted to MTA prior to local adoption.
3. Continued collection of annual traffic counts and LOS
calculations for selected arterial intersections in the
CMP Highway System.
4. Completion of a Local Implementation Report. The 1994
Report is an inventory of all local transportation
improvements implemented by the City between January 1,
1990 and April 30, 1994 that are eligible for
2
Transportation Improvement Credits (discussed in detail
in Analysis section below).
5. Commitment to implement the new development activity
tracking system by June 1, 1994 (discussed in detail in
Analysis section below).
Future CMP Local Conformance Requirements
In comparison to the 1994 CMP local conformance requirements, the
primary change for 1995 and subsequent years is that the Local
Implementation Reports and self -certification resolutions are due
by September 1, commencing with September 1, 1995. These
subsequent Reports will include additional transportation
improvements for which credit is claimed, an inventory of all new
development activity over the preceding year, and the associated
mitigation goals.
ANALYSIS:
The first three 1994 local CMP conformance requirements are simply
continuations of the 1993 local requirements mandated by the 1992
CMP. The fourth requirement, submission of a Local Implementation
Report, is the primary documentation for this year's conformance
procedures. The fifth requirement, new development activity
tracking, will be an ongoing process commencing on June 1, 1994.
Local Implementation Report
As stated above, the Local Implementation Report is an inventory of
all local transportation improvements implemented by the City
between January 1, 1990 and April 30, 1994 that are eligible for
Transportation Improvement Credits. These credits will be used to
offset transportation impacts or "debits" created by new
development activities. All cities must maintain a positive annual
balance of transportation credits over debits to remain in
conformance with CMP. Local jurisdictions may claim credit for
actions implemented through any funds programmed by the local
jurisdiction, including Proposition 111, Propositions A & C local
returns, and private contributions or assessments. Credit may not
be claimed for projects funded through MTA discretionary sources,
such as State Flexible Congestion Relief funds. If a local
jurisdiction contributes partial funding (such as local matching)
to a project, the credit would be based on the total credit value
of the project prorated to the proportion contributed by the local
jurisdiction.
Appendix G of the 1993 CMP provides the Countywide Deficiency Plan
Toolbox of Strategies. This Toolbox is a collection of various
transportation improvements and the type of credits available for
each improvement. The credit factors are expressed in various
measurements, i.e. dwelling units, square footage, number of
employees, street -miles, and must therefore be multiplied by the
total scope of the transportation improvement to calculate the
total credit value. The transportation improvements listed in this
Toolbox are broken down into the general categories of Land Use
Strategies, Capital Improvements & Transportation Systems
Management, and Transportation Demand Management & Transit
Services.
The CMP provides a sample spreadsheet used to document the required
information for each transportation improvement credit claim
(Appendix E). The Local Implementation Report is therefore simply
a collection of spreadsheets, one for each transportation
improvement credit claim. The information required for each credit
claim is listed on the spreadsheet, which includes the following:
a. the Project Number, taken from the Toolbox of Strategies
numbering sequence
b. the Strategy name, taken from the Toolbox of Strategies
c. a general description of the project
d. the Project Scope (total size of the project in terms of
the units of measurement for this project, such as
dwelling units or street -miles)
e. the Credit Factor (the unit of measurement used to
determine credits for a particular strategy, i.e. 28
credits per 100 employees in target area)
f. Project Credit Value (the Credit Factor multiplied by the
Project Scope)
g•
Project Cost (total cost to implement the project)
h. Local Participation (percentage of overall project funded
by the local jurisdiction and/or private contributions,
excluding contributions from other jurisdictions)
i. Current Milestone (level of project completion used to
determine credits, i.e. for TDM strategies, Milestone
Type A applies, whereby individual projects may claim 40%
of the total credit upon adoption of the enabling
ordinance and the remaining 60% of total credits upon
compliance with the program requirements)
Milestone Factor (the percentage of total project credit
value corresponding to the current milestone level. In
cases where the project has reached the final milestone,
i.e. compliance with program requirements, the milestone
factor would equal the total credit that may be claimed
for that project)

k. Net Current Value (the net credit value that may be

Implementation Report, calculated by the Project Credit

1. Total Credits Claimed (total credits claimed for all
projects under a specific strategy)
The Local Implementation Report for 1994 contains transportation
improvement projects that have an aggregate total of 6,936.61
credits.
New Development Activity Tracking
The 1993 CMP mandates that all local jurisdictions must begin
tracking all new development activity as of June 1, 1994. Any
building permits issued for new developments that do not include
congestion mitigation strategies will generate debits that are
based on the size of the development. The information provided by
this tracking system will be used by MTA in future years to
calculate the annual congestion mitigation goal for each local
jurisdiction.
All new building permits issued between June 1, 1994 through May
31, 1995 (the first annual reporting period) must be broken down by
type of land use, providing the total number of dwelling units or
new gross square footage for each land use category. The reporting
process provides three residential and twelve nonresidential land
use categories. To calculate the total value of new development,
it is necessary to multiply the applicable number of dwelling units
or gross square footage by the specified _impact value for that
particular land use, i.e. the single family land use impact value
is 6.8 multiplied by the total number of dwelling units. The CMP
does not permit substitution of alternate impact values.
If the future land use of a building is unknown at the time of
building permit issuance, the City shall select the most applicable
land use category based on the project site's zoning designation.
Mixed use projects shall be calculated based on the actual intended
project use mix, with dwelling units calculated separately.
Congestion debit points are calculated only for new square footage
or additional dwelling units. Permits for alteration or remodel of
existing square footage, or a change of use, are not counted as
congestion points. Permits for temporary or seasonal uses, i.e.
Christmas tree lots, are exempt from development activity reporting
requirements.
Adjustments to debit calculations may be claimed only for: (1)
building permits that were both issued and revoked, expired or
withdrawn during the reporting period; or (2) demolition of any
5
structure within the reporting period. Adjustments to debit
calculations from previous reporting periods will need to be
claimed as credits on future annual reports.
The following types of development projects are exempted from the
calculations of new development activities. These projects,
however, must still be tracked and reported to MTA as exempted
development activity:
a. Low/Very Low Income Housing Projects
b. High density residential projects located within one-
quarter mile of a fixed rail passenger station
c. Mixed use projects located within one-quarter mile of a
fixed rail passenger station
d. Development agreements with_a local jurisdiction prior to
July 10, 1989
e. Reconstruction of buildings or structures damaged from
the April 1992 riots
f. Any federal, state or county agency project that is
exempt from local jurisdiction zoning regulations and
discretionary approvals
Deadline Extensions Due to Earthquake
In an effort to support the recovery efforts from damages caused by
the January 17 Northridge earthquake, MTA has recently made the
following adjustments to the following local conformance deadlines:
a. The annual CMP highway monitoring requirement for traffic
counts and LOS calculations on selected arterial
intersections in the CMP Highway System has been
suspended for 1994. This requirement is suspended only
for 1994; it will remain in force for subsequent years.
b. The Local Implementation Report deadline has been
extended for six months to November 1, 1994. However,
the local self -certification resolution remains due by
May 1, 1994 and the new development tracking activity
must still begin by June 1, 1994.
c. Building permits for reconstruction of buildings damaged
by the earthquake will not be subject to CMP deficiency
plan requirements.
While this deadline extension means that the City need only adopt
the self -certification resolution at a publicly noticed hearing and
submit to MTA by May 1, 1994, the City's internal CMP planning
6
process has been well under way for several months and the Local
Implementation Report was near completion when this deadline
extension was announced. For this reason and for the sake of
expediency, staff is presenting both the self -certification
resolution and Local Implementation Report for review by the
Planning Commission and later adoption by the City Council prior to
May 1, 1994 in order to remain on the original schedule.
Environmental Review Process
The 1994 local conformance procedures are a continuation of the
local CMP program that was initiated last year with the adoption of
a TDM ordinance and Land Use Analysis Program resolution. As part
of the City's CMP program, the 1994 local conformance requirements
and all subsequent local CMP activities are covered by the Negative
Declaration prepared in March 1993.

RE: MultiVision's response to City Council
resolution 94-5666
Recommendation: To receive and file MultiVision's report.
At the March 22, 1994 City Council Meeting, staff recommended that Council adopt a
resolution ordering MultiVision to roll back rates for basic cable service from $19.60 to
$18.07 per month retroactive to September 1, 1993. These recommendations were based
on the analysis presented by CSG Associates, the City's Cable Television consultants.
While acknowledging a minor typographical error in the staff report (misnaming a
MultiVision tier), CSG stands firm in its defense of the rate rollback as presented at the
March meeting.
MultiVision has presented the attached response which represents their official
administrative appeal to the Council's decision. As stated in the previous staff report, the
FCC will make final determinations of the appropriateness of the City's order and if there
are inconsistencies with FCC regulations, will inform the City accordingly.

I. BACKGROUND
On or about October 17, 1993, the City was certified by
the FCC to regulate the rates of MultiVision's Basic Service Tier
and associated equipment. The City subsequently provided
MultiVision with written notice of such certification and
requested MultiVision to submit its FCC 393. MultiVision timely
submitted its FCC 393 to the City on or about November 30, 1993.
On December 8, 1993 the City issued an order pursuant
to 47 C.F.R. §76.933(b) tolling the 30 day deadline in which it
was required to make a rate determination, and providing the City
with an additional 90 days in which to review and consider
information from interested parties, such that the City's rate
review period was extended to March 29, 1994. On or about
February 9, 1994, the City requested MultiVision to respond to
twelve questions related to the FCC 393 it had submitted. On or
about February 16, 1994, MultiVision responded to the City's
request by letter, noting that the information sought by the City
was essentially included in the Deloitte & Touche, Independent
Certified Public Accountants report ("D&T Report) already
included with MultiVision's FCC 393 submission to the City, and
by extending an invitation to the City to meet with MultiVision
staff to review and discuss the records used by MultiVision in
preparing its FCC 393. On or about February 28, 1994 the City
sent MultiVision a letter further requesting MultiVision to
respond to the twelve questions in writing. On March 4, 1994, in
74173.2 - 033194
2
cooperation with the City's request, MultiVision answered the
City's questions by letter in writing, and referenced the
sections of its FCC 393 and the D&T Report where the requested
information was located and/or explained, and MultiVision further
provided additional documentation and expanded explanations in
response to the City's specific. inquiries (the "Letter").1
On March 22, 1994, at the City Council's request,
MultiVision representatives appeared before the Council at a
public meeting and responded to all questions then posed by the
Council related to the regulated Basic Service Tier and
associated equipment, as well as to MultiVision's non-regulated
Super Cable collective package and a -la -carte offerings. The
City Council then adopted by affirmative vote its Resolution No.
94-5666 disapproving in part MultiVision's basic service rates.
On or about March 28, 1994 MultiVision received from the City the
1 MultiVision would like to correct a misstatement made
in the March 10, 1994 document prepared by City staff entitled
"Determination of Basic Cable TV Rates" ("Staff Report"). Page 2
of the Staff Report states that the City's consultant, the
"Communications Support Group has recalculated MultiVision's FCC
Form 393s based on corrected information." [Emphasis added.]
The information supplied to the City by MultiVision in its FCC
393 was in fact correct, and was certified to be true and correct
to MultiVision's best knowledge and belief, and made in good
faith, under penalty of fine, forfeiture and imprisonment for
willful false statements. (See MultiVision's FCC 393, page 2.)
Moreover, the information supplied by MultiVision to the City in
its Letter was not corrected information, as the information
supplied in its FCC 393 was already correct, and was in fact
information that was previously supplied the City in its FCC 393
and in the D&T Report. Lastly, the Communications Support Group
incorrectly recalculated MultiVision's FCC 393 basic service
rates by including non-regulated channels in the benchmark
calculation as further discussed below.

final Resolution 94-5666 of the City Council of Hermosa Beach,
California, pursuant to Sections 76.936, 76.940, 76.941 and
76.942 of the Rules and Regulations of the Federal Communications
Commission Disapproving the Existing Rates and Charges for the
Basic Service Tier, in part, Prescribing Rates and Charges for
Basic Service Tier, and Seeking Comment Why Refunds Should Not Be
Ordered (the "Resolution"). The Resolution constitutes the
City's written decision disapproving in part, an initial rate
within the meaning of 47 CFR §76.936 (the "Decision"). In short,
the City's Decision consists of: (1) disapproving MultiVision's
unregulated Super Cable Package and a -la -carte channel offerings;
(2) ordering MultiVision to reduce the monthly rate for its Basic
Service Tier from $19.60 to $18.07 based on the City's conclusion
that the Super Cable Package and a -la -carte channel offerings
should be included in the count of regulated service channels,
and thus reflected in the calculation of the benchmark rate for
this tier, thereby lowering the rate; and (3) ordering
MultiVision to appear before the Council at 7:30 p.m. on April
12, 1994 to give evidence and show cause why corresponding
refunds should not be ordered.
MultiVision objects to the Decision of the Council as
it is inconsistent with the Cable Television Consumer Protection
and Competition Act of 1992, Pub. L. No. 102-385, 106 Stat. 1460
(1992), including 47 U.S.C. §543 et seq. as amended (the "Act"),
and 47 CFR §§76.922 and 76.923, and hereby respectfully requests
74173.2 - 033194
4
the City (i) to reconsider and reverse its Decision to the extent
it disapproves and re -prescribes the rate for the basic cable
service, and (ii) to not order refunds pursuant to the
Resolution.
II. GENERAL RESPONSE AND REQUEST FOR
RECONSIDERATION OF DECISION
The City's Decision disapproving in part MultiVision's
Basic Service Tier rate was based on recalculation of the
benchmark rate for the Basic Service Tier to include
MultiVision's non-regulated a -la -carte channels within the total
count of regulated channels, in contravention of the Act and 47
CFR §§76.922 and 76.923. MultiVision hereby responds by
clarifying the non-regulated status of its Super Cable Package
and a -la -carte program offerings. In so responding, MultiVision
hereby incorporates by reference the Letter described above as
previously filed with the City, and MultiVision's November 10,
1993 response to the City's FCC 329 Cable Programming Service
Rate Complaint as filed with the FCC, attached hereto as
Exhibit A.
A. Background.
As a preliminary matter, MultiVision wishes to point
out that its Super Cable Package and a -la -carte offerings were
created in connection with the restructuring of rates and
services effective September 1, 1993; the restructuring was
intended to bring the system into compliance with Federal
74173.2 - 033194
5
Communications Commission ("FCC" or "Commission") rate
regulations and related requirements. In preparation for the
restructuring, MultiVision officials carefully analyzed all of
the Commission's decisions, orders and other materials relating
to the new rate rules. Additionally, they attended cable
industry and legal seminars, consulted with communications
counsel and independent accountants and participated in
discussions with members of the Commission's staff. Accordingly,
MultiVision believes that it has made a diligent, good faith
effort to understand and apply the new rules.2
As will be demonstrated in this response, MultiVision
has not attempted to evade scrutiny but rather has provided full
disclosure to regulatory authorities, including the City, and to
its customers and has implemented its restructuring in a manner
which is fully consistent with the Commission's rules and
announced policies.3 MultiVision likewise believes that its
restructuring promotes consumer choice, eliminates cross -
subsidization and enhances the ability of subscribers to receive
only those services which they wish to pay for. In short,
MultiVision submits that its restructuring comports with both the
letter and the spirit of the Commission's rate regulations.

B. Pay -Per -Channel Programming Is Specifically Excluded
from Rate Regulation.
As the City is no doubt aware, 47 U.S.C. §543 and 47
CFR Section 76.922(a) thereunder clearly provide that only basic
cable service and "cable programming service" rates are subject
to rate regulation. The programming rates at issue in the
Decision, specifically, the per channel charges and discounted
package4 rate for WTBS, TNT, E-TV5, WGN, and The Discovery
Channel are not subject to rate regulation as these channels are
neither part of the basic cable service, nor are the channels
cable programming services as defined. Rather, this programming
is offered on a pay -per -channel basis and therefore is not
subject to rate regulation, in accordance with 47 U.S.C. §543(a)
and 47 CFR §76.901(b) (2) thereunder which provide in effect that
"video programming offered on a pay -per -channel or pay -per -
program basis" is specifically excluded from rate regulation.
As the Commission has recognized:
Congress excluded per -channel or per -program
service offerings [from rate regulation] on
the basis of a determination that greater
unbundling of offerings leads to more

This package is known as the Super Cable Package.
5 E -TV is a new channel offering that was not available
to Hermosa Beach subscribers prior to September 1, 1993. E -TV
was newly added to MultiVision's programming line-up in Hermosa
Beach on September 1, 1993.
74173.2 - 033194

subscriber choice and greater competition
among program services.6
In reliance upon this clear expression of Congressional policy
and intent and upon the Commission's conclusion that:
We also do not believe that anything in the
Act requires us to restrict the movement of a
channel to premium and deregulated status,'
MultiVision proceeded with its restructuring plans.
In creating its a -la -carte offering, MultiVision also
took into account the Commission's guidance that a -la -carte
services may be packaged on a collective basis so long as two
criteria are met: (1) the price of the combined package must not
exceed the sum of the individual charges for each component
service;8 and (2) the cable operator must continue to provide
the component parts of the package to subscribers separately in
addition to the collective offering.9 As will be demonstrated
in the following discussion, MultiVision's a -la -carte offerings
are in full compliance with these two fundamental requirements.
1. The following channels are currently offered on an
a -la -carte basis as part of the MultiVision Super Cable Package

at 90; Senate Report at 77.

in Hermosa Beach: WTBS, WGN, E -TV, TNT, and The Discovery
Channel. The monthly a -la -carte rate for each of these channels
is $1.50 for WTBS; $1.50 for WGN; $1.00 for E -TV; $2.50 for TNT;
and $2.25 for The Discovery Channel. WTBS, WGN, TNT and The
Discovery Channel were first offered a -la -carte on September 1,
1993. WTBS and WGN were previously included in the Basic Service
Tier. TNT and The Discovery Channel were previously included in
the satellite (cable programming services or CPS) tier. Thus
only two channels were relocated from each of the basic and
satellite tiers to be a -la -carte offerings, leaving many times
more channels remaining in each of those tiers which were
combined to be the new Basic Cable Service. E -TV was added to
the Hermosa Beach cable system on September 1, 1993 as an all-new
service on an a -la -carte basis and was not previously available.
2. Customers may purchase any combination of WTBS,
WGN, E -TV, TNT and The Discovery Channel for the sum of the
individual a -la -carte prices. They may purchase all five
collectively, called the MultiVision Super Cable Package for
$3.85 a month. This package was first made available on
September 1, 1993.
3. From September 1, 1993 to at least October 1,
1993, there was no charge for customers to add or to drop the
MultiVision Super Cable Package, or to add or to drop individual
channels which comprise the package. Since sometime after
74173.2 - 033194
9
October 1, 1993 there is a fee of $18.25 for the field service
trip to change services. This includes adding or dropping
individual channels which comprise the package. The one field
change of service fee includes all changes made during the same
service trip. There are no other one time or recurring
additional fees to receive these channels.
4. As of February 28, 1994, in the franchise area for
the City of Hermosa Beach there were 7365 individual subscribers
to the Basic Service Tier, 7208 subscribers to the MultiVision
Super Cable Package, and 8 subscribers10 to individual services
on an a -la -carte basis from those also offered collectively as
the Super Cable Package. Particularly noteworthy are the facts
that 157 subscribers have opted to discontinue the Super Cable
Package since the September 1st restructuring, and every channel
which is offered a -la -carte is actually being purchased on an
individually selected a -la -carte basis.
The MultiVision Super Cable Package meets the
Commission's requirements specified in the Rate Order for a
permissible unregulated package of a -la -carte channels. In
establishing its prices for the individual a -la -carte services,
MultiVision took into account the perceived value of the
programming to the subscriber and the cost of the programming to
10 These 8 subscribers break out as follows: 1 subscriber
to WTBS, 2 subscribers to E -TV, 1 subscriber to WTBS and E -TV,
and 4 subscribers to The Discovery Channel.
74173.2 - 033194
10
the operator. As demonstrated above, the package price is less
than the sum of the a -la -carte prices, customers may purchase any
component parts of the packaged a -la -carte channels separately or
in any combination, and the prices for the a -la -carte services,
both individually and in the aggregate, are realistic and
rational.
Until June 1, 1993 subscribers to the Basic Service
Tier received 16 channels, and subscribers to cable programming
services (CPS) received 20 additional channels. On June 1, 1993,
MultiVision added two new channels to the Basic Service Tier,
must -carry stations KWHY-TV and KVEA-TV, resulting in a total of
18 channels on the Basic Service Tier (but no rate increase).
Thus, on August 1, 1993 subscribers to the Basic Service Tier
received 18 channels, and subscribers to CPS received 20
additional channels. On September 1, 1993, combining the Basic
Service Tier and CPS, and adding two more new channels, must -
carry stations KLCS-TV and KHSC-TV to basic cable service, while
creating the new a -la -carte channel offering, subscribers
received 36 channels on basic cable service, plus 5 channels in
the new a -la -carte collective package.
Having a net incremental decrease of only 2 channels in
the total number of basic channels received (and no decrease as
compared to the number of channels received in the Basic Service
Tier until June 1), and shifting 2 of the 18 former Basic
channels (WGN and WTBS), and 2 of the former 20 CPS channels (TNT
74173.2 - 033194
11
and The Discovery Channel) to optional, a -la -carte status while
adding 2 new channels to basic cable service, does not in
MultiVision's judgment constitute a fundamental change in the
quantity or quality of programming received on the Basic and CPS
tiers, whether considered separately or as combined. Moreover,
offering the services in this manner enables basic tier
subscribers to avail themselves of popular and desirable
programming without having to subscribe to the entire package of
cable programming services; this option represents a substantial
savings for those who choose to exercise it, and some subscribers
are already so choosing. The Commission has not found that a
shift of programming from a tier to a -la -carte status would in
and of itself constitute an evasion and has indicated that it
would instead review such practices on a case-by-case basis."
Additionally, MultiVision's a -la -carte programming and
Super Cable Package should not be subject to regulation even
under the factors newly announced by the FCC on February 22,
1994,12 for which the actual rules were only issued yesterday,
11 Rate Order, 8 FCC Rcd at 5916, ¶453, n. 1161. Trade
press reports confirm that senior members of the FCC staff have
endorsed the view that a -la -carte offerings are not a per se
evasion: "Moving services from the program tier to a la carte is
not an evasion of the Act. The Act actually provides that
incentive." Multichannel News, August 23, 1993 at 67.

Protection and Competition Act of 1992; Report and Order and

12
March 30, 1994. The rate regulation orders, documents and rules
issued March 30, 1994 by the FCC consist of over 500 pages which
MultiVision and its counsel have not had the opportunity to fully
review for purposes of this Response, which is being filed
immediately as a precaution against any applicable time limits
under the City's municipal code. We believe the newly issued FCC
rules and standards in any event are prospective in their
application, and not retroactive as to programming offerings
established September 1, 1993 in conformity with and reliance
upon the Commission's rules and pronouncements in effect at that
time (see, e.g. RKO General, Inc. v. FCC, 670 F.2d 215 (D.C. Cir.
1981)), pursuant to the Commission's rate regulation procedures.
Notably, the City's rate review and Decision relate
specifically to the rates in effect as of September 1, 1993. In
any event, MultiVision reserves the right to supplement this
Response promptly if needed to reflect any applicable revised
rules issued by the Commission yesterday, March 30.
MultiVision therefore submits that the facts of this
particular case clearly demonstrate that the packaging and
pricing of its a-la-carte channels meet the Commission's
enunciated standards in effect when the current offerings were
implemented on September 1, 1993 and at this time, are bona fide
offerings and promote realistic consumer choice on a cost
effective basis. Accordingly, MultiVision submits that its Super
Cable Package is in full compliance with the Commission's
applicable Rules and policies. Further as MultiVision's a -la -
74173.2 - 033194
13
carte program offerings and its Super Cable Package are
specifically excluded from regulation in accordance with 47
U.S.C. §543(a) and 47 CFR §76.901(b)(2), MultiVision respectfully
requests that the City reconsider and reverse its Decision
treating MultiVision's Super Cable Package and a -la -carte program
offerings as regulated services, and thus prescribing rates
and/or ordering rate refunds based on the inclusion of these non-
regulated program offerings in the City's benchmark calculations
applicable to the Basic Service Tier.
III. RESPONSE TO CITY STAFF REPORT
Section 1 of the Resolution states that:
The existing rates and charges for the Basic
Service Tier and associate equipment as
identified in FCC Form 393 dated November 30,
1993 are hereby disapproved in part for the
reasons, and on the grounds, as contained in
the Consultant's Report dated January 18,
1994 ("Consultant's Report") and the staff
report dated March 10, 1994 ("Staff Report"),
all of which are incorporated into this
Resolution by reference as if fully stated
herein.
The Consultant's Report and the Staff Report provide
the stated basis for the City's Decision, and MultiVision hereby
responds to these reports. As the City did not attach a copy of
the Consultant's Report to the Resol-ution and to our knowledge
did not distribute the Consultant's Report to the public,
MultiVision is presently unable to respond to the Consultant's
74173.2 - 033194
14
Report although MultiVision has formally requested of the City on
March 30 to be provided a copy of the Consultant's Report under
the California Public Records Act. As a result, MultiVision's
response is limited to the decision factors listed in the Staff
Report, which apparently is based upon the Consultant's Report.
A. Decision Factors.
The Staff Report lists five "Decision Factors" as the
basis for its recommendation that the Super Cable Package be
treated as a regulated service.13 MultiVision hereby responds
to each Decision Factor in the order they appear in the Staff
Report.
1. Decision Factors 1 and 2-- "The Pricing Structure
of the Super Cable Package make the Purchase of an
A -La -Carte Channel an Unrealistic Choice."
MultiVision disputes the aforementioned statement which
is not based on any factual information. The only basis for this
statement is the Staff's assumption, without any evidence, that
"few, if any," subscribers have chosen to subscribe to the Super
Cable Package on an a -la -carte basis. Further, MultiVision would
like to point out that the Staff's statement that "MultiVision
failed to provide the City with any figures related to the number
of customers subscribing to the SuperCable package or any
individual channel" is misleading. MultiVision was never even
13
74173.2 - 033194
See Staff Report, p. 4.
15
requested to provide this information to City.14 Had the City
previously requested this information, MultiVision would have
gladly provided it, and indeed has voluntarily provided this
information in Section II.B. above.
More importantly, the Staff Report in making this
statement fails to recognize that not all subscribers are
interested in receiving all five channels, i.e., 157 subscribers
have already made the decision to receive none of these channels,
and there are also subscribers for whom the per -channel option
will be a realistic service choice as these subscribers are only
interested in receiving a certain channel or channels in the
package. Indeed, as noted above, 8 subscribers are already
receiving individually selected a -la -carte services just within
the City of Hermosa Beach, and every a -la -carte channel offered
in Hermosa Beach has been individually chosen by at least one
subscriber on an a -la -carte basis.
The City's Decision not only neglects the interests of
certain subscribers, but also is inconsistent with the facts of
actual subscribership as provided above, which show that the a-
la -carte offerings do provide subscribers with a realistic
14 MultiVision was only asked to provide subscriber
numbers for its regulated tiers, and as the Super Cable Package
and a -la -carte offerings are not regulated, subscriber numbers
were therefore not provided for these service offerings. See

service choice. The package is a "realistic service choice" for
subscribers interested in all five channels, and the a -la -carte
options represent "realistic service choice" for subscribers who
are only interested in a certain channel or channels included in
the package.
Further, MultiVision would like to clarify that in
establishing its a -la -carte prices, it took into account the
perceived value of the programming to the subscriber and the cost
of the programming to the operator. As demonstrated above, the
package price is less than the sum of the per -channel prices,
customers may purchase any component parts of the packaged
channels separately or in any combination, and the prices for the
a -la -carte services, both individually and in the aggregate, are
realistic and rational. Noteworthy are the facts that as of
February 28, 1994, 8 subscribers have opted to subscribe to one
or more individual services on an a -la -carte basis, and that 157
subscribers have opted to discontinue the collective package in
its entirety since the September 1st restructuring. MultiVision
submits that the facts of this case clearly demonstrate that the
packaging and pricing of its a -la -carte channels and collective
package meet the FCC's enunciated standards at this time, are
bona fide offerings and promote consumer choice on a cost
effective basis. Accordingly, Multivision submits that its a -la -
carte offerings provide a "realistic service choice" to
74173.2 - 033194
17
subscribers and are in full compliance with the FCC's current
rules and policies.
2. Decision Factor 3 -- "800 of the channels offered
on the SuperCable package were removed from
regulated tiers of service."
However, almost 90% of the channels on the former basic
and satellite tiers remained in the combined, regulated basic
service tier from September 1, 1993 forward. As discussed in
Section II.B. above, until June 1, 1993 subscribers to the Basic
Service Tier received 16 channels, and subscribers to cable
programming services (CPS) received 20 additional channels. On
June 1, 1993, MultiVision added two new channels to the Basic
Service Tier, must -carry stations KWHY-TV and KVEA-TV, resulting
in a total of 18 channels on the Basic Service Tier (but no rate
increase). Thus, on August 1, 1993 subscribers to the Basic
Service Tier received 18 channels, and subscribers to CPS
received 20 additional channels. On September 1, 1993, combining
the Basic Service Tier and CPS, creating the a -la -carte
collective offering, and adding two more new channels, must -carry
stations KLCS-TV and KHSC-TV to basic cable service while
creating the new a -la -carte channel offering, subscribers
received 36 channels on basic cable service, plus 5 channels in
the new a -la -carte collective package.
Having a net incremental decrease of only 2 channels in
the total number of basic channels received (and no decrease as
compared to the number of channels received in the Basic Service
74173.2 - 033194
18
Tier until June 1), and shifting 2 of the 18 former Basic
channels (WGN and WTBS), and 2 of the 20 CPS channels (TNT and
The Discovery Channel) to optional, a -la -carte status while
adding 2 new channels to basic cable service, does not in
MultiVision's judgment constitute a fundamental change in the
quantity or quality of programming received on the Basic and CPS
tiers, whether considered separately or as combined. Moreover,
offering the services in this manner enables basic tier
subscribers to avail themselves of popular and desirable
programming without having to subscribe to the entire package of
cable programming services; this option represents a substantial
savings for those who choose to exercise it, and some subscribers
are already so choosing. The Commission has not found that a
shift of programming from a tier to a -la -carte status would in
and of itself constitute an evasion and has indicated that it
would instead review such practices on a case-by-case basis.15
3. Decision Factor 4 -- "Subscribers must pay a
$18.25 field change of service fee for adding or
deleting individual channels."
MultiVision would like to clarify that although this
statement is partially correct, it is also seriously misleading.
is Rate Order, 8 FCC Rcd at 5916, ¶453, n. 1161. Trade
press reports confirm that senior members of the Chairman's staff
had contemporaneously endorsed the view that a -la -carte offerings
are not a per se evasion: "Moving services from the program tier
to a la carte is not an evasion of the Act. The Act actually
provides that incentive." Multichannel News, August 23, 1993 at
67.
74173.2 - 033194
19
First of all, the Staff Report fails to mention, as discussed in
Section II.B. above, that from September 1, 1993 to at least
October 1, 1993, there was no charge for customers to add or to
drop the MultiVision Super Cable Package, or to add or to drop
any individual channels which comprise the package. All
subscribers were notified of the new service offerings effective
September 1, 1993, and were informed of their right to choose
individual a -la -carte channels or discontinue the collective
package, without charge during the transitional period.
Consistent with the Commission's transitional guidelines, only
sometime after October 1, 1993 was there an applicable fee of
$18.25 for the field service trip to change services.
Secondly, the field change of service fee is a cost -
based, regulated charge set by the Hourly Service Charge (HSC)
method prescribed by Commission regulations, 47 C.F.R. §923.
This fee was included in MultiVision's Form 393 rate submission
to the City, and in fact the City has already approved it
pursuant to its Resolution 94-5666 (see Exhibit A to such
Resolution). This single fee includes adding or dropping any
combination of individual channels which comprise the package.
The one field change of service fee includes all changes made
during the same service trip. There are no other one time or
recurring additional fees to receive these channels. There is no
basis for the City to use this rate -regulated, City -approved HSC
charge for field change of service as a justification for finding
74173.2 - 033194
20
that MultiVision's a -la -carte offerings do not provide realistic
subscriber choice, or are otherwise disqualified from
constituting unregulated pay -per -channel services.
4. Decision Factor 5 -- "Inclusion of the channels
offered on the SuperCable package in the rate
calculations significantly lowers the Maximum
Permitted Rate for Basic Cable Service."
MultiVision does not dispute that adding the non-
regulated a -la -carte channels to the count of regulated services
would arithmetically lower the Maximum Permitted Rate for Basic
Cable Service. However, it should be noted that the City may not
recalculate MultiVision's Basic Service Tier rate based on the
inclusion in regulated services of non-regulated a -la -carte
channels, merely in order to artificially depress basic cable
service rates for political or other reasons without foundation
in the applicable statutes and regulations.
B. City's Decision Not Based on Actual Local
Circumstances.
The Staff Report, on which the City's Decision is
based, states that the City's consultant "CSG does not suggest
similar treatment [to the Super Cable Package] be given the
People's Choice offerings. This is because two of the People's
Choice offerings were previously offered by MultiVision as
74173.2 - 033194
21
Premium services while the remaining three offerings are new
additions to the MultiVision line-up."16
MultiVision's Hermosa Beach cable system does not now
offer, nor has it ever offered a "People's Choice" package and/or
program offerings. The above paragraph in the Staff Report is
apparently the result of the Staff Report being uncritically
based on the Consultant's Report, which itself apparently was
casually generated from "canned" generic documents prepared for
other communities served by other cable systems. Thus the
reliability and factual accuracy of the decisions and statements
contained in the Staff Report and the City's resulting Decision
are not based on careful or reasonable consideration of actual
local community circumstances. Instead the City's statements and
Decision disapproving the basic cable service rate are result -
oriented foregone conclusions, reached without regard to the
local circumstances and facts of MultiVision's individual case.
The Staff Report to that extent does not provide a reliable
and/or factual basis for the City's Decision.
C. Determination of Regulated vs. Non -Regulated Status of
Super Cable Service.
The Staff Report questions: (1) whether the Super
Cable Package a -la -carte offerings provide "consumers with a
realistic service choice" which in the Staff's opinion would
16
74173.2 - 033194
See Staff Report, p. 4.
22
qualify the Super Cable Package and its a -la -carte offerings for
non-regulated treatment; (2) whether the Super Cable Package and
its a -la -carte offerings were created to escape regulation; and
(3) whether the FCC's February 22, 1994 announcement of changes
to its rate regulations permit regulation of the Super Cable
Package and its a -la -carte offerings.17 As demonstrated by
MultiVision in Section II.B. and elsewhere above, MultiVision
submits that the facts of this case clearly demonstrate that the
packaging and pricing of its a -la -carte channels meet the
Commission's enunciated standards in effect when such offerings
were composed (the same September 1, 1993 date to which the
City's rate review relates), are bona fide offerings and promote
consumer choice on a cost effective basis. MultiVision
respectfully requests that the City reconsider its Decision to
act in contravention of the Act and FCC Rules and regulations by
including MultiVision's non-regulated program offerings in the
benchmark calculation to determine a "reasonable rate" for
MultiVision's Basic Service Tier, and to prescribe and/or refund
rates based on the inclusion of non-regulated program offerings
in its benchmark calculations.
D. FCC Inquiry.
The Staff Report also states that the FCC "...sent
letters of inquiry to 35 cable systems for possible violations of
the rate regulation rules," is "questioning...the practice of
17
74173.2 - 033194
See Staff Report, p. 5.
23
removing channels from the basic tier and charging for them on a
per channel (a -la -carte) basis," and that it "may be many months
before ...[the FCC announces its decisions] in these cases, long
after the City will be required to make its rate
determination. „is These statements are irrelevant to the City's
Decision and provide no foundation for it whatsoever.
MultiVision has complied with the FCC's rules and regulations.
The FCC's inquiries were not directed to MultiVision's Hermosa
Beach cable system. Additionally, as discussed above in Section
II.B. it is MultiVision's belief that any action on the part of.
the FCC to alter the effective a -la -carte rules is prospective in
its application, and not retroactive as to programming offerings
established September 1, 1993 in conformity with and reliance
upon the Commission's rules and pronouncements in effect at that
time (see, e.g. RKO General, Inc. v. FCC, 670 F.2d 215 (D.C. Cir.
1981)). Notably, pursuant to the Commission's rate review
procedures, the City's rate review and Decision relate
specifically to the rates in effect as of September 1, 1993.
E. City Jurisdiction.
The Staff Report clearly recognizes that the City may
only regulate MultiVision's Basic Service Tier.19 However, the
Staff Report errs in its recommendation to treat as regulated
18
19
74173.2 - 033194
See Staff Report, p. 6.
See Staff Report, p. 5.
24
MultiVision's Super Cable Package and a -la -carte offerings by
including these channels in the channel count for regulated
services, which determines the rate for the Basic Service Tier.
As discussed in Section II.B. above, MultiVision's Super Cable
Package and a -la -carte offerings are not subject to regulation.
Thus the City may not prescribe a rate and/or refund rates based
on a recalculation of the benchmark that includes such non-
regulated channels. Further, as this recalculation was the reason
for the City's disapproval of MultiVision's rates for its Basic
Service Tier, MultiVision respectfully requests the City to
reconsider its Decision and to approve MultiVision's existing
basic cable service rate.
F. Financial Analysis.
The Staff Report also states that including
MultiVision's Super Cable Package and a -la -carte offerings in the
count of regulated channels will result in monthly savings of
$1.53 per subscriber based on the recalculation of the
benchmark.20 However, this statement alone, assuming arguendo
that it is arithmetically correct, does not justify the City's
Decision. As discussed above, the City lacks jurisdiction to
regulate MultiVision's Super Cable Package and a -la -carte
offerings. The City may not prescribe new rates nor order
refunds based on a recalculation of the benchmark that includes
non-regulated channels.
20
74173.2 - 033194
See Staff Report, p. 7.
25
IV. CONCLUSION
As the Super Cable Package and a -la -carte program
offerings are not subject to regulation by the City, the City
erred in its Decision: (1) to regulate the Super Cable Package
and a -la -carte program offerings by including these non-regulated
channels in the total count of regulated channels which
determines the regulated rate for the Basic Service Tier; and (2)
to prescribe and/or order refund of rates for the Basic Service
Tier based on the inclusion of non-regulated a -la -carte channels
in the count of regulated channels. As these were the only bases
provided by the City for its Decision to disapprove MultiVision's
Basic Service Tier, MultiVision respectfully requests the Council
to: (1) reconsider and reverse its Decision disapproving and re -
prescribing the rate for Basic Cable Service; (2) approve
74173.2 - 033194
26
MultiVision's existing rate for Basic Cable Service; and (3)
therefore not order rate refunds.
The City's Decision has already approved all rates for
basic cable services and equipment, except the rate for Basic
Cable Service, and as to such approval only, MultiVision agrees
with and accepts that portion of the City's Decision.

ATTACHMENT TO FCC 393 REQUEST FOR CABLE RATE APPROVAL COVER
SHEET: RESPONSE OF ML MEDIA PARTNERS, L.P. DBA MULTIVISION CABLE
. TV CORP. (CA ID #0310) TO FCC 329 CABLE PROGRAMMING SERVICE RATE
COMPLAINT BY THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA
I. INTRODUCTION
ML Media Partners, L.P. dba MultiVision Cable TV Corp.
("MultiVision") received the attached FCC 329 Cable Programming
Service Rate Complaint ("complaint") from the City of Hermosa
Beach, California on or about September 15, 1993. Service
occurred on the date of mailing by the complainant, which it
certifies in item 12 of the FCC 329 as September 13, 1993.
II. REQUEST FOR WAIVER TO REQUIREMENT OF RESPONSE
IN THE FORM OF A COMPLETED FCC 393
MultiVision hereby respectfully requests a waiver from
the requirements of 47 CFR Section 76.956(a), specifically that
MultiVision's response to the attached complaint be in the form
of a completed Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") 393.
The basis for MultiVision's request is two -fold: (1) the
complaint does not relate to rates presently subject to
regulation by the FCC (see below); and (2) the attached complaint
is defective. Subject to the FCC's approval of MultiVision's
waiver request, MultiVision hereby responds in accordance with 47
CFR Section 76.956 to the attached complaint.
1
III. RESPONSE
A. Pay -Per -Channel Programming Is Specifically Excluded
from Rate Regulation.
47 U.S.C. §543 and 47 CFR Section 76.922(a) thereunder
clearly provide that only basic cable service and "cable
programming service" rates are subject to rate regulation. The
programming rates at issue in the attached complaint,
specifically, the per channel charges and discounted package rate
for WTBS, WGN, E -TV, TNT, and Discovery are not subject to rate
regulation as these channels are neither part of the basic cable
service, nor are the channels cable programming services as
defined. Rather, this programming is offered on a pay -per -
channel basis and therefore is not subject to rate regulation,
in accordance with 47 U.S.C. Section 543(a) and 47 CFR Section
76.901(b)(2) thereunder which provides in effect that "video
programming offered on a pay -per -channel or pay -per -program
basis" is specifically excluded from rate regulation.
The FCC has stated that it "will not regulate
collective offerings of otherwise exempt per -channel or per -
program services so long as two essential conditions are met."
See Rate Regulation Report and Order (MM Docket 92-266), May 3,
1993, Paragraph 327 (72 RR 2d 819). These conditions are:
1
The monthly per -channel rates for these channels are as
follows: WTBS - $1.50; WGN - $1.50; E -TV - $1.00; TNT - $2.50;
Discovery $2.25. All five channels may also be purchased at the
discounted monthly package rate of $3.85, a savings of $4.90 over
the per -channel rate for all five channels. A copy of the current'
rate card for the City of Hermosa Beach, California indicating
these charges is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
2
(1) the package price does not exceed. the sum of the per -channel
charges; and (2) the channels making up the package remain
available on an per -channel basis. Ibid. Both conditions are
met with regard to the programming here at issue: (1) the
package price of $3.85 is less than the total per -channel price
of $8.75, and (2) these channels are readily available as a
discounted package, or on an per -channel basis, to all
subscribers.2
As the programming rates that are the subject of the
attached complaint do not involve basic cable service, and are
not for "cable programming services," but are in fact rates for
pay -per -channel programming that is specifically excluded from
regulation, MultiVision respectfully requests that the attached
complaint be dismissed with prejudice.
B. The Complaint is Defective.
Complainant has failed to attach a copy of its subscriber
bill to the complaint as served on MultiVision, as required by
section 10 of the complaint form and by 47 CFR Section 76.951(c).
Complainant completed Item 10 of the FCC 329 to indicate. that
"yes", the bill is attached. Section 103 of the complaint form
explicitly authorizes the dismissal of the complaint due to
complainant's failure to comply with this section. Complainant's
2
See rate card attached hereto as Exhibit A.
3 Section 10 of FCC 329 specifically states that "failure
to attach a copy of [a]...current bill reflecting the rate or
rate increase may result in dismissal of [the]...complaint."
Complainant has failed to attach a copy of its current bill to
the complaint.
3
failure to complete the complaint as required by attaching a copy
of its subscriber bill renders the complaint defective.
MultiVision therefore respectfully requests that the complaint be
dismissed as it is defective. Moreover, dismissal of the
complaint is clearly authorized due to the complainant's failure
to comply with section 10 of the complaint form.
IV. CONCLUSION
The complaint is incomplete and defective.
Additionally, the FCC lacks jurisdiction over the rates that are
the subject of the attached complaint. Therefore, MultiVision
respectfully requests that the attached complaint be dismissed
with prejudice.

RE: Oil Project - Reimbursement of City's Cost and
Attorney Fees
At the last City Council meeting a question was raised
concerning the right of the City of Hermosa to recover its
attorney fees and costs in defending any actions taken with
respect to the approval of the Oil Conditional Use Permit and
related matters. As the City Council is aware, the Resolution
(93-5632) approving the Conditional Use Permit for oil
development at the City maintenance yard included a provision
which required the oil operator to defend, indemnify and hold
harmless the City from any action to set aside, void or annul
the permit approval. Specifically, the condition of approval
states as follows:
" The permittee shall reimburse the City for any court and
attorney fees which the City may be required to pay as a
result of any claim or action brought against the City
because of this grant. Although the permittee is the real
party in interest in an action, the City may, at its sole
discretion, participate at its own expense in the defense
of the action, but such participation shall not relieve
the permittee of any obligation under this condition."
Pursuant to the conditions of approval of the C.U.P., the
oil operator was required to post a $50,000.00 letter of credit
which is to be used by the City for reimbursements of its
attorney fees and costs for any subsequent litigation. The
letter of credit only requires that the City submit a statement
to the oil operator and provide an opportunity for payment
prior to calling on the letter of credit.

Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers

Page 2.
The City has recently submitted to McPhearson Oil Company
a request for reimbursement of attorney fees and costs which
have been incurred as a result of the litigation challenging
the issuance of the Conditional Use Permit. If these fees are
not paid within a reasonable time, the City has the right to
call upon the letter of credit and obtain full reimbursement.
It is important to note that the $50,000.00 letter of credit
does not constitute a maximum amount for which the City is
entitled to reimbursement. Pursuant to the conditions of
approval of the C.U.P., the City is entitled to full
reimbursement of all attorney fees and costs associated with
any legal challenge in this regard.
In addition to the above, the City is entitled to full
indemnification and a hold harmless by the permittee or any
"claim, action or proceeding against the City or its agents,
officers or employee to attack, set aside, void or annul this
permit (C.U.P.) approval...".

SOUTH SCHOOL PARK: ENCROACHMENTS AND REQUESTS
FROM RESIDENTS TO PURCHASE LAND
Recommendation
It is recommended by the Parks, Recreation and Community Resources
Commission and staff that Council:
1. Not sell open space to residents at this time.
2. Direct staff to set a public hearing concurrently with the South School
Park final design review to discuss and make recommendations on existing
encroachments onto the site.
Background
At the March 22, 1994 meeting, Council reviewed a letter from Frances
Parker, Paul Scanvell and Susan Fuhs requesting that the City consider selling
parcels of parkland at the South School site to residents (Attachment A). Per
the deed restrictions on the purchase of the park, the City has the right to sell
this property as long as it remains zoned open space.
Council directed staff to place this topic on the April 12 agenda and to add to
it a discussion of any and all existing encroachments onto City property at the
South School site.
Attached you will find a map of parcels and the manner in which they are
currently encroaching on City property (Attachment B).
1
Analysis
Residents request: Sale of open space property
The Commission submitted a conceptual plan for a neighborhood park with
maximum residential (pedestrian) access. This plan included park entrances
from all sides and was inclusive of an entryway at Sunset. The residents have
requested land that may be designated for this pedestrian access per the
conceptual plan (Attachment C).
The City has retained the services of J. F. Davidson Associates, Inc.
Architects who will reexamine the park design and will prepare a final plan
for the park. There are two (2) entrances possible from the northwest side of
the park: one (1) at Sunset and one (1) at Loma Drive. The Commission
favored access from both streets but the final plan may include just one (1). If
Sunset is selected as a pedestrian access area, then it would obviously not be
advisable for the City to consider selling this land. Furthermore, necessary
notifications would need to be made to the residents ordering them to remove
the fences that are currently on City property. Once the South School Park
design is complete, if this entrance is not retained, it may be worthwhile for
the Council to reconsider the request.
Per the attached letter, the residents cite safety concerns with the potential
addition of a pedestrian walkway adjacent to their property. In fact, (if it is
constructed) this walkway will serve in a dual role for the City: as a park
entryway and as an avenue for emergency vehicle access. As advised by the
Commission, the park entries will be lighted for safety and will provide Police
and the neighbors with improved visibility into the park. Experience with
other areas in the City would suggest that the more "open" a park is, and the
easier it is for Police to enter it from all sides, the less likely security
problems will arise.
In reviewing this topic (and other similar requests), the Commissioners also
expressed that they felt that the majority of residents in the City would favor
the retention of every square foot of open space the City owns. That is, based
on the voting history of the City, the residents' value for parks and open
space acquisition is high and favored over other land uses.
2
Encroachments
The attached map of parcels notes the City property currently in use by
residents. On the southwest side of the park, virtually every residence
encroaches on the City property line. The existing fence may have provided
some historical reason for the encroachments as it is placed 31' east of the
actual property line. It is also noteworthy that due to the long term problems
these residents have been subjected to with the abandoned school site, most
of the encroachments have been made in the interests of landscaping an
otherwise visually blighted area (one resident even installed a sprinkler
system and lawn).
Absent parcel #24 where a spa encroaches over 11' 9" into City property,
the encroachments would not pose a significant problem to the construction
of an adequate entryway from 4th and Culper. The City would still have
ample room to landscape and create a pedestrian path while allowing for the
portion of the property currently in use by residents.
As with the request above, the key factor will be the final park design and the
usability of the land in question to the City.
Conclusions
Council needs to make a policy decision that will either:
• consider the retention of maximum open space for the City as the
driving force for decisions; or
• will favor allowing residents to encroach and/or purchase open space
property if it does not compromise the master plan.
Clearly the City needs to balance the overall needs of the community with the
compatibility of the park to the neighborhood. In the Commission planning
process, great care was taken to acknowledge the adjacent residents by
creating a moderate impact park; by avoiding facilities with night lighting
requirements; by creating an open and visible park to address security
concerns; and by attempting to enable easy access for residents living in the
immediate vicinity.
3
Investigating the encroachments will produce more questions than answers
until a final architectural plan is approved by the Council. The City will want
to keep the affected residents in the loop for all relevant decisions about the
site including the park master plan. To combine a public noticing effort for
both issues would be cost and time effective for the City and residents.
Recognizing that the neighbors have been good caretakers of the existing site
and that they will be the watchdogs for the park in the future, the City will
need to approach the issue of encroachments with sensitivity in order to
create a cooperative climate for park development.
Other alternatives available to Council include:
1. Notify residents who are encroaching on City property to remove fences
etc.
2. Direct staff to develop a plan to sell the open space land to residents as
requested.
3. Request more information.

CITY ;.",uR. OFFICE
Dear Mayor, Council Members and Commisioners of Parks and Recreation:
ATTACHMENT "A"
February 14, 1994
It has come to our attention that the South Park Project has included a small strip of land in the
Northwest corner. This strip runs behind three houses. We are the owners of those houses (517, 521 and
531 Loma Drive). The land in question is depicted in the attached copy of the plan. The top right of the
picture shows a pan handle that is 10 feet wide by 90 feet deep. This appears to be a portion of the park
that may be more of a headache than it is useful. This area would be hard to light, it would be a safety
concern and it would create a maintence problem.
We are proposing that the city allows us to purchase this land. This would eleviate the city's
responsibilty to the land, it would reduce development costs and provide additional funds to help offset the
project's cost. The land had been appraised at about S10 a square foot a few years ago which would be a
total sale price of 59,000. This cost would be split between the three homeowners.
Thank you

Honorable Mayor and members Regular meeting of
of the Hermosa Beach City Council April 12, 1994
REDUCING PARKING ENFORCEMENT TIME LIMIT
IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA
AND
ONE HOUR PARKING AT LOWER PIER AVE.
DURING THE MONTH OF MAY
Recommendation:
Receive and file.
Background:
At the March 8, 1994, City Council meeting, staff was directed to study reducing parking
time limits from the current 8:00 p.m. enforcement limit to 5:00 p.m. This item was
continued from March 22, 1994, City Council meeting.
In addition the Downtown Enhancement Commission at their meeting of March 16, 1994,
recommended that all meters located at lower Pier Avenue from Hermosa Ave. to Strand
be bagged during the month of May, and to provide a one hour free parking until 6:00
pm..
Commission Recommendation:
The Downtown Enhancement Commission is recommending to the City Council that:
During May 1994, for one month, the meters on lower Pier Avenue be bagged and one-
hour free parking until 6:00 p.m. be offered on a trial basis.
Analysis:
1. REDUCING PARKING ENFORCEMENT TIME LIMIT IN THE
DOWNTOWN AREA
There are total of 1614 parking meters in the City of Hermosa Beach. The majority of the
meters are located in the residential district (1208 total). In these residential districts,
1 0
2
residents are allowed to purchase a parking permit for an amount of $27 annually which
permits them to use parking space at any permitted time. Residents are permitted to park
at these locations 24 hours per day.
There are 247 total meters located in the downtown area (Exhibit 1). These meters are
enforced from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM. The cost of the meters are $.25 per half an hour.
The following issues have been identified in regards to the reduction in parking meter
enforcement:
A. Revenue
The are 247 total parking meters in the downtown area. The total potential annual
revenue for the extended 3 hours is approximately $124,000. Assuming a 50%
revenue collection between the hours of 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. this could
potentially reduce parking revenue by an amount of $62,000.
Enforcement
The City currently estimates $950,000 revenue annually from fines and tickets. If
enforcement hours are reduced, revenue collected will decrease. Using a
conservative estimate, if 35% of the total tickets issued are in the downtown area,
a three hour (27%) reduction in enforcement would equal $90,000. The impact
would probably be greater, since more tickets are issued in the evening hours.
However, there might be some cost savings with reduction in enforcement hours.
C. Allright Parking Operation
Reducing parking enforcement time limits in the vicinity of the Allright parking
operation will interfere with their ability to meet the requirements of their contract.
D. Providing new stickers for signs
The cost of providing new stickers for new time limits is approximately $4,000.
E. Downtown Implementation Plan
Proposals for the Downtown Implementation Plan have been received. The
successful consultant will be studying the parking situation in the downtown area.
The results of the study will be important in making any modifications to the
parking in downtown.
F. Coastal Commission
Change of parking will normally require Coastal Commission's approval.
However, in this case reducing parking enforcement time limits will provide more
free parking for the beach goers, therefore Coastal Commission's approval might
not be necessary.

2. ONE HOUR PARKING AT LOWER PIER AVE.
DURING THE MONTH OF MAY
The following issues have been identified in regards to the removal of the parking meters
A. Revenue
The are forty nine total parking meters on Pier Avenue from Hermosa to Strand on
both sides of the street. The total potential revenue for a month is approximately
$8085. Assuming a 50% revenue collection at these meters, providing free one
hour parking could reduce the revenue by $4045.
B. Allright Parking Operation
Providing free parking in the vicinity of the Allright parking operation will interfere
with their ability to meet the requirements of their contract.
The impact would probably be greater on Allright parking operation, since most of
their revenue is collected during the months of May June and July.
C. Downtown Implementation Plan
Staff is in the process of receiving proposals for the Downtown Implementation
Plan. The successful consultant will be studying the parking situation in the
downtown area. The results of the study is important in making any modifications
to the parking in downtown.
It takes at least one month for the users to get familiar with a new parking
arrangements, and by the time users are familiar with the new one-hour parking,
trial basis is done and meters are back in business. This will totally confuse users
and might create more aggravations over tickets written.
As mentioned earlier, the Downtown Implementation Plan is the best time to
analyze the parking situation, and report the results and recommendations to the
City Council.
D. Coastal Commission
Change of parking might require Coastal Commission's approval, since we are
limiting parking hours and therefore providing less long term parking.
E. Enforcement
Revenue collected from enforcement will decrease. However, enforcement of one
hour free parking will still be required.
In addition, other businesses at Hermosa and upper Pier Ave might be requesting the
same treatment which will increase the impact tremendously.

Fiscal Impact:
By implementing both programs, the City faces potential revenue losses of over $160,000.
