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.
GLOSSARY
The following explanations may help you to understand the terms found on most
agendas for meetings of the Hermosa Beach City Council.
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 opportuni-
ty 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 or-
dinances 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.

FR: Rosamond d'Orlaque Fogg, Hermosa Beach Stop Oil Coalition
RE: Hermosa Beach Stop Oil Vs. State Lands Commission
I read with interest Vose's Memorandum dated January 20, 1994 to the Council concerning the
submission in the litigation on the oil drilling project.
I apologize; I must not have 'made myself clear. I was not alleging that the City's representatives
misquoted excerpts from an administrative record. I do, however, allege that an error, a significant.
one in my mind, was present in the administrative record and was quoted in the City's Memorandum
of Points and Authorities, prepared by attorneys Ed Lee and Steven Quintanilla, of the firm Oliver, Barr
& Vose, dated November 30, 1993, on Pg. 3. "to permit ... oil and gas operations within the Tidelands
from a City -owned maintenance yard located ... in an industrial area approximately 500 yards from
the nearest residential structure." Now, 500 yards is 1500 feet, more than the distance from Valley
Drive to the seashore. Using good old Pi R1, 1500 feet would create a circle 7,065,000 sq. feet in
area.
Vose further states in his memorandum that "It is important to remember that this is a statement that
was made in 1984 and has not been used by the State Lands Commission for any recent
determination. The most recent information submitted by the City of Hermosa Beach to the State
Lands Commission concerning the status of the subject drill site correctly describes the subject
property." Vose goes on to reference staff reports and environmental reports which accurately identify
the exact location of residences to the drill site.
Given this apparent plethora of accurate information submitted more recently to the SLC it was
unfortunate that Messrs. Lee and Quintella had to cite in their Memorandum to placed before Judge
Wayne that the site was in a remote industrial area 500 yards from the nearest residence. But
mistakes do happen.
I wish to have this misconception corrected and hope that Mr. Vose is cordial and accommodating
and that the Council advises him to contact both the State Lands Commission and Judge Wayne and
inform them that this statement was inaccurate.
Sincerely)

Before tidelands can be leased for oil and gas
operations, Public Resources Code Section 6872 requires that the
Commission make the following three findings:
(1) That oil or gas deposits are believed to
be contained in such lands,
(2) That_ the same are being drained by means
of wells upon adjacent lands,'and
(3) That the leasing of the same for the
production of oil and gas will be in the best
interests of the state.
Despite the fact that there are only three requirements
set forth in Section 6872, Petitioners maintain that a fourth
requirement must also be met. Petitioners contend that Hermosa
should also have to prove that the ongoing loss of its petroleum
reserves is being caused by existing operating wells on adjacent
lands. Petitioners insist upon the impositioning this unprece-
dented fourth requirement despite the fact that there is no basis
in the language of the statute, its legislative history, or
otherwise, to support the addition of such a fourth requirement.
Petitioners' line of reasoning was resoundingly rejected
by the Commission at a public meeting held in June 1992 when the
Commission found that "drainage" existed pursuant to Section
6872. The Commission's finding was supported by uncontradicted
testimonial evidence, submitted by consultants for Hermosa and
MacPherson and the Commission's staff. The testimony indicated
that an existing pressure differential resulting from 20 to 35
years of oil production operations in Redondo had caused the
current drainage of at least 5 million barrels of oil from the
Hermosa Tidelands, at a rate of approximately 680 barrels per
day.

STATEMENT OF FACTS
In 1919, the State of California granted' Hermosa all the
II tide and submerged lands within its boundaries, without
reservation of the minerals therein. (AR pp. 19 and 114.) The
1919 grant limits use of the granted lands, and of revenues
generated by them, to purposes connected with the establishment,
improvement and operation of a harbor. (AR p. 114.)
In 1932, Hermosa residents voted to prohibit drilling
into the Tidelands. (AR p.007.) Thereafter, however, in 1984,
residents approved by a vote of 60% to 40% to permit subsurface
oil and gas operations within the Tidelands from a City -owned
maintenance yard located approximately 1/2 mile east of the
shoreline in an industrial area approximately 500 yards from the
nearest residential structure. (AR p. 7.) At the time of the
1984 vote, there existed 48 offshore and 19 onshore oil and gas
wells in Redondo located immediately adjacent to the southern
boundary of Hermosa. Since 1956, the Redondo wells have
"produced in excess of 8 million barrels of oil and 9 million
cubic feet of (natural) gas." (AR pp. 7-8.)
In September 1985 (AR p.123), Hermosa submitted an
application to the Commission for approval of a lease that would
allow the exploration and production of oil and gas from the
Tidelands (the "Project") in order to offset the drainage caused
by the Redondo Beach wells. (AR P. 9-10.) In November 1985, in
its initial action on Hermosa's application, the Commission
acknowledged receipt of the application, but deferred action on
the application since the application was not complete. At the
same time, the Commission directed its staff to work diligently

with Hermosa on completing the application and to report back to
the Commission as soon as possible. (AR p. 22.)
In October 1986, MacPherson and Hermosa entered into an
oil and gas lease with surface drilling and operating rights
confined to the authorized upland City Maintenance Yard Site
(hereinafter "Upland Lease") (AR p.55.) On May 8, 1990, the
Hermosa City Council adopted Resolution No. 90-5363 certifying
the lease's final EIR and adopting an accompanying Statement of
Overriding Considerations. (AR pp. 117-122.) This. approval
followed a March 6, 1990 public hearing held before the Hermosa
Planning Commission and several public hearings held before the
City Council. (AR p.117.)
Subject to Commission approval, Hermosa and MacPherson
then entered into the Tidelands Lease. The terms of the
Tidelands Lease entitled Hermosa to a royalty of 18-2/3% which
was to be allocated between a "tidelands trust -fund" (11-2/3%)
and the City's general fund (7%). Revenues thus accruing to the
"tidelands trust fund", pursuant to the 1919 grant, were required
to be used for "purposes connected with the establishment,
improvement and operation of a harbor," while revenues accruing
to the City's general fund were to be used exclusively, as
mandated by a Hermosa ordinance, for the acquisition and
maintenance of parks and open space within Hermosa. (AR pp. 7,
114 and 115.)
On June 30, 1992, the Commission found that the
tidelands were being drained pursuant to Section 6872. (AR PP•
113, 059, and 96-97.) In its finding of drainage, the Commission
rejected the statutory interpretation suggested by Petitioners,

which would require not only a finding of current drainage into
adjacent lands, but also a finding that the current operation of
wells within the adjacent lands is the cause of such current
drainage. At its April 28, 1993 meeting, the Commission
approved (i) the Uplands Lease, (ii) the Final EIR and the
accompanying Statement of Overriding Considerations, and (iii) a
Memorandum of Understanding between the City and the Commission
memorializing their agreements as to Project -related matters of
interest and concern to the Commission and the State. (AR pp.
113-126 and p. 136.)
PROCEDURAL MATTERS
Petitioners commenced this action on August 17, 1993,
with the filing of a Petition for Writ of Mandate challenging the
Commission's June 1992 drainage finding and its approval of the
Tidelands Lease. Petitioners and the Commission agree that these
proceedings are governed by Code of Civil Procedure §1094.5.2
(Pet.Mem., p. 6, and SLC Mem., p. 14.)
2. SectQ�l�q. applies to review of an administrative order
ision "made as the result of a proceeding in which by law
a hearing is required to be given, evidence is required to be
taken, and discretion in the determination of facts is vested in
(the administrative body or officer)." (CCP §1094.5(a).) It is
has not been shown that a hearing was required by law to be given
in the proceedings of the Commission or that evidence was
required to be taken. Nevertheless, since the Commission
believes that §1094.5 applies and that the application of that
section does not affect the ultimate outcome, Hermosa does not
pursue the subject except to point out that the application of
§1094.5 in this case has not been conclusively established. In
light of this, Hermosa reserves future argument on the point.

ARGUMENT
A.
THE COMMISSION'S FINDING OF DRAINAGE WAS BASED
ON UNCONTRADICTED EVIDENCE THAT OIL AND GAS DEPOSITS
ARE CURRENTLY MOVING FROM THE SUBMERGED LANDS
BENEATH HERMOSA TO REDONDO BEACH.
Under the substantial evidence test, the trial court is
required to liberally construe the findings of the agency so as
to uphold the order of the agency wherever possible, instead of
defeat it. Jack P. Meyers, Inc. v. Alcoholic Bev. etc Appeals
Bd. (1965) 238 Cal.App.2d 869. In fact, the sole concern of the
reviewing court in mandate proceedings involving an administra-
tive body is with the presence or absence of substantial evidence
supporting the agency's decision. Rau v. Sacramento County Ret
Bd. (1966) 247 Ca1.App.2d 234, 236.
In the instant case "(a)fter receiving testimony from
officials of the City of Hermosa Beach, its consultants and State
Lands Commission staff, the Commission found that the granted
tidelands of the City of Hermosa Beach are being drained." (AR
p. 59.) At the Commission hearing, Mr. Leanard Brock, a
consultant for the City of Hermosa Beach testified that 20 to 30
years of drilling in the City of Redondo Beach created a
"pressure sink of several hundred pounds" causing oil to drain
from Hermosa Beach to Redondo Beach. (AR p. 75.) Mr. Brock's
testimony was supported by Mr. Francis Barker, a consultant for
MacPherson Oil Company, who testified that "it's been established
on fluid level surveys . . . that there's a pressure sink in
Redondo where millions of barrels have been taken out, and the

reservoir pressures on the Hermosa Beach side are approaching'
diversion pressures. And when you have that condition, oil fi.ows
across the line . . . ." (AR p. 76.) The above testimony was
further supported by Mr. Paul Mount, a staff member of the State
Lands Commission. At the hearing, Mr. Mount concurred with Mr.
Brock and Mr. Barker on the issue regarding the movement or oil
from Hermosa to Redondo. In his testimony, Mr. Mount specifi-
cally stated that: "Oil . . . is still migrating across the lease
line from Hermosa to the Redondo Beach side." (AR p. 78.)
As the above testimony indicates, there is a general
consensus among Commission staff and the consultants for the
Hermosa and MacPherson regarding the movement of oil from Hermosa
to Redondo Beach. (AR p..93.) There was no testimony presented
to the Commission during the above meeting which challenged the
conclusions of any of the above witnesses with respect to their
opinions regarding the issue of movement of oil and gas deposits
from Hermosa to Redondo.
B.
THE RULES OF STATUTORY CONSTRUCTION CALL FOR AN
INTERPRETATION TO EFFECT A RATIONAL RESULT THAT
PROMOTES THE PURPOSE OF THE LAW.
Despite the fact that there was "no conflict between
Commission staff and proponent's staff and Hermosa Beach staff"
regarding the issue of movement of oil and gas deposits from
Hermosa to Redondo (AR p. 93), Petitioners insist that the
Commission's "drainage" finding should be reversed. (AR pp. 138-
139.) The basis of their contention is that Section 6872,
according to their interpretation of the statute, requires that

the drainage be caused by active wells. (AR pp. 138-139.) This
interpretation is directly contrary to the interpretation adopted
by the Commission.
In instances of uncertainty in interpreting statutory
language, a court is required to adopt a statutory construction
that favors an interpretation which promotes rather than defeats
the purpose and/or policy of the law and that leads to the most
rational result. Granberry v. Islay Investments (1984) 161
Cal.App.3d 382, 387-89. With this in mind, it becomes clear that
the Court under the instant facts must uphold the Commission's
finding of drainage since such a finding under the circumstances
leads to not only a rational result, but also a, result that
undoubtedly promotes the purpose and policy of Section 6872 as a
whole.
Petitioners' artificial distinction between drainage
caused by current drilling operations and migration caused by
past drilling operations clouds the real issue that was before
the Commission, and that is now before this Court. Section 6872
is part of a relatively old body of law concerning the mineral
development of publicly owned lands, and particularly of tide and
submerged lands. As such, the intent of Section 6872 should be
analyzed in the context of its historical development.
Section 6872, on its face, is clearly intended to foster
and facilitate the protection and development of publicly owned
mineral assets whenever such assets are being lost due to their
unnatural movement, migration, or drainage to another location.
This purpose
has been
acknowledged by both
Staff and
Petitioners,. As
Commission
staff has noted (A.R. p.
57), and as

Petitioners have maintained, the purpose of permitting develop-
ment operations under Section 6872 (with respect to this case) is
to prevent mineral operations in Redondo Beach from drawing the
mineral reserves of Hermosa across the Hermosa boundary without
allowing Hermosa to protect its publicly -owned reserves.
(Pet.Mem, p. 11.)
From a historical perspective, it is clear that as early
as 1938, the State recognized the importance of authorizing the
public to lease publicly -owned tide and submerged lands for the
production of oil and gas whenever it appeared that oil or gas
deposits in any such lands were being drained to another
location. (Stats. 1938, Ex. Sess., Ch.5., §86.) This concern
over the unnatural drainage of publicly -owned oil deposits was
further reflected in a 1955 amendment to Section 6872 which
permitted the Commission to lease tide and submerged lands if it
appeared:
(1) that oil or gas deposits are believed to
be contained in any such lands, (2) that the
same are being drained by means of wells upon
adiacent lands, and (3) that the leasing of
the same will be in the best interests of the2
State." (Stats. 1955, ch. 1724, §19. Emphasis
added.)
It is clear from the historical development of Section
6872 that while the State is interested in preserving publicly -
owned mineral resources, it also recognizes the importance of
allowing the public to lease its tidelands and submerged lands
whenever the publicly -owned mineral assets contained therein are
subject to unnatural movement to a location outside the affected
public's jurisdictional domain.

Moreover, while the 1955 amendment contains the language
"are being drained", this alone cannot justify the conclusion, as
proposed by Petitioners, that in the absence of current operating
wells on adjacent land, the purpose of Section 6872 must not be
given effect. Contrary to what Petitioners would like the Court
to believe, "drainage" as contemplated by Section 6872 does not
cease to exist merely because the production operations which
caused the current drainage have been terminated. To adopt such
a line of reasoning would clearly defeat both the purpose and
policy of Section 6872.
As the uncontradicted' evidence presented to the
Commission demonstrated, once production in adjacent lands has
caused a pressure differential, drainage will (a) continue until
the pressure depletion caused by offset production has been
stabilized (AR p. 44), (b) oil flow from any undeveloped reser-
voir will continue for some considerable time after the produc-
tion from the developed portion has ceased (AR p. 42), and (c) in
the specific case of the Tidelands the existing pressure sink
will continue to cause oil to migrate away from Hermosa for a
number of years long after the drilling operations have stopped
(AR p. 40). In light of the above, if the Court adopts the
reasoning of Petitioners on this issue the Court will have to
ignore the fact that Section 6872 is clearly intended in large
part to foster and facilitate the protection and development of
publicly owned mineral assets whenever such assets are being lost
due to their unnatural movement, migration, or drainage to
another location.

NOTHING IN THE LEGISLATIVE HISTORY OF SECTION 6872 INDICATES
THAT DRILLING FROM UPLAND SITES HAS BEEN PRECLUDED BY
THE ESTABLISHMENT OR EXISTENCE OF THE SANTA
MONICA BAY OIL SANCTUARY.
Petitioners purport that the Commission is precluded
from approving leases on upland sYtes on the ground that such
approvals are prohibited by virtute of the establishment and/or
existence of the Santa Monica Bay Oil Sanctuary. This argument,
however, is misleading in that there is nothing in the legis-
lative history of any of the statutes cited by Petitioners which
indicates that drainage of other requirements of Section 6872(a)
are not remotely controlled by the legislation establishing or
governing the Sanctuary.
Section 6872.was amended in 1970 (Stats. 1970, Ch. 1438,
§1) as follows:
"(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of
this section, no tide and submerged lands
within the areas of the County of Los Angeles
. . . may be leased by the commission unless
such lands are within one nautical mile of the
ordinary high water mark, the conditions of
subdivision (a) . . . have been met, and the
drilling for oil and gas deposits is to be
done by means of slant drilling from an upland
site."
This 1970 amendment was included within AB 2464 (1970,
Sieroty) as part of an extensive revision to the tide and
submerged lands leasing provisions of the Public Resources Code,
withspecific regard to previously granted tide and submerged
lands in Santa Monica Bay. (Stats. 1970, Ch. 1438; the 111970
Legislation"; see McPhearson Opposition Memorandum (hereinafter

"McPhearson Memo."), Exhibit 3.) The analysis of the Senate
Committee on Governmental Organization concluded that:
"The net effect of this measure could be to
limit withdrawal of petroleum materials to one
mile offshore on the tidelands of the affected
cities, provided that said withdrawal came
from wells on upland sites using slant
drilling. Tide and submerged lands be
developed [sic], and thus are in effect
included in the Santa Monica Bay oil
sanctuary." (McPhearson Memo., Exhibit 4,
p.2 (emphasis added).)
In a letter sending the 1970 Legislation to the Governor
for signature, its author explained the intended effect of the
legislation as follows:
28 11 ////
"Assembly Bill 2464 is designed to eliminate
the possibility of an orchard of off -shore oil
drilling platforms in Santa Monica Bay. [q]
Under present law ... there exists a sanctuary
. . . between Pt. Fermin ( San Pedro) and the
Ventura County line. Excepted from this
sanctuary are cities possessing tideland
grants which include mineral rights. The
cities holding these tideland grants are Los
Angeles, Santa Monica, Redondo Beach and
Hermosa Beach.
"Under certain conditions, these cities can
now enter into oil and gas leases which would
necessitate the use of off -shore oil drilling
platforms. If any of these cities did extract
oil from their leases and thereby drained oil
from adjacent State-owned reserves, the State
would then be permitted to drill in that area
to protect its oil interests.
"Such a situation would almost certainly have
a snow -balling effect and before long an
orchard of oil drilling platforms would scar
the Los Angeles County coastline. (9)
(Assembly Bill 2464 does not prevent slant
drilling from upland sites within one mile of
the ordinary high water mark.)" (McPhearson
Exhibit 5 (emphasis added).)

To achieve these purposes, that same 1970 Legislation
also added the following provision to Public Resources Code
§7057:
"Notwithstanding any other provision of this
section, no tide or submerged lands owned or
under the jurisdiction of any city shall be
leased for the exploration for, drilling for
or production of petroleum products within the
areas of the County of Los Angeles . . .
unless such lands are within one nautical mile
of the ordinary high water mark, the
applicable conditions of the Public Resources
Code and requirements of the State Lands
Commission have been met, and the drilling for
oil and gas deposits is to be done by means of
slant drilling from an upland site."
As the above legislative history indicates, the
requirements of Section 6872(a), including the requirement of a
"drainage" finding, have absolutely nothing to do with the Santa
Monica Bay oil sanctuary. (Pet.Mem., p. 11.) The drainage
requirement in Section 6872(a) was enacted as Section 86 of the
State Lands Act of 1938. (McPhearson Memo., Exhibit 1, p.33.)
And, all of the requirements of Section 6872(b) have been in
force since no later than 1955.
Further, the 1970 Legislation, by effectively adding
municipally owned tide and submerged lands to the pre-existing
Santa Monica Bay oil sanctuary (McPhearson Memo, Exhibit 4, p.2,
"Comment"), does not even arguably reflect a Legislative intent,
as suggested by Petitioners, to "prevent oil drilling in the Los
Angeles County tidelands." (Pet.Mem., p.12.) Contrary to the
implications of Petitioners' arguments, the prevention of oil and
gas operations in the subsurface of the Bay, from upland surface
locations is not only absent from the language of the 1970
Legislation, but also is contrary to the stated intent of the
18286 13.

1970 Legislation which clearly "does not prevent slant drilling
from upland sites . . . ." (McPhearson Memo, Exhibit 5.)
Although the intent and the unambiguous language of the
1970 Legislation clearly prohibits oil and gas operations from
drilling platforms on the surface of the waters of Santa. Monica
Bay, there is absolutely nothing in the history of the above
legislation to suggest that the same prohibition applies to slant
drilling from an upland site. (§ 6872(b); McPhearson Memo.,
Exhibits 4 and 5.) The 1970 Legislation must be interpreted to
achieve all of its objectives, that is, not only to prevent
operations from drilling platforms on the surface of Santa Monica
Bay (which is not an issue in the instant case) but also to
foster the protection of public property assets through opera-
tions from the surface of upland sites. (Wotton v. Bush (1953)
41 Cal.2d 460, 467.)
E.
PETITIONERS' "DOMINO EFFECT" THEORY MUST BE REJECTED SINCE IT
IS BEYOND THE SCOPE OF REVIEW PERMITTED UNDER 1094.5
Petitioners argue that even if the Lease and the Proposed
Operations are lawful and proper, the Court must nonetheless
overturn the actions of the Commission in order to prevent a
"domino" effect from occurring. Petitioners fear that if Hermosa
and MacPherson are permitted to exercise their rights in a lawful
manner, then others will also demand the same rights. (Pet.Mem.,
P. 11-12.) Petitioners fear that such a domino effect would
"effectively undermine the purpose of the Santa Monica Bay
sanctuary which is designed to prevent oil drilling in the Los
18286 14.

Angeles County tidelands. ,3 (Pet. Mem, p. 12.) This position,
however, is clearly untenable not only because the legislative
history indicates otherwise, but also because such an inquiry
goes far beyond the scope of review permitted under Section
1094.5.
CONCLUSION
On the basis of the foregoing, and the opposition memo-
randa of the Commission and of Macpherson, Hermosa respect -fully
requests that the Petitioners be denied any relief on their
Petition. If the Court should conclude that relief on the
Petition is warranted, Hermosa respectfully requests that the
matter be remanded by writ directed to the Commission for further
action in compliance with specified requirements of law and with
the further direction that the Court be thereafter apprised by
return to the writ of the actions which shall have been taken by
the Commission in compliance with such writ.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City
Council
FROM: The Planning Commission
SUBJECT: Imposing 17 -foot Garage Setback on Ngnconform-
ing Remodels I
DATE: January 27, 1994
At our meeting of July 6, 1993 the Planning Commission approved a
substantial addition and remodel of a single-family home (850 8th
Place) with nonconforming side yards and a nonconforming garage
setback, subject to the condition that the garage setback be cor-
rected. We made this a condition of approval in this case be-
cause the expansion was fairly substantial, and correcting the
garage setback could easily be accomplished, and would result in
the addition of guest parking.
On appeal, at your meeting of August 10, 1993 the City Council
reversed our decision to require the correction to the garage
setback.
By this memorandum we are requesting some direction regarding the
17 -foot setback and if your decision should be interpreted as a
precedent. We believe it was a very reasonable condition con-
sidering the circumstances, and wonder if your decision rep-
resents a change in policy for the city in regards to the 17 -foot
garage setback requirement. For example, the Housing Element of
the General Plan contains the following policies:
Policy #5: "Off-street parking spaces shall meet standards
relating to size, access and location."
Policy #15: "Parking shall be designed to maximize its use-
fulness, and availability, particularly guest spaces."
Also, within the discussion of housing standards in the Housing
Element, in regards to parking, it is noted that the 17' setback
is important as it provides for two additional spaces.

when there were areas of the City that are so
much more in need; asked that the sewer problem

completed, but had been deferred due to the
possibility of a hotel on the property that
could have been required to pay for the sewer);
Parker Herriott - 224 24th Street, showed his
design; spoke of the paths being other than
concrete, as that was hardscape and the Or-
dinance allowed only 100 percent softscape;
and,
Steve Crecy - Parks, Recreation and Community
Resources Advisory Commission Chairperson, said
more public input was needed for this project
and the Commission was ready and able to hold
the needed public hearings for the park.

nated for a sport for at most four people at a
time when the City has courts at Clark and the
Community Center; offered to buy the 10 foot
wide strip of land behind her property as she
felt it was not easily accessible from the

ect, CIP 92-501, to pay for architectural consul-
tant services,
with the understanding that Phase I would be budgeted at
$308,375 from the current available amount of $319,729
($100,000 currently budgeted from Park and Recreation
Facility Tax Fund and $219,729 from County Prop A funds)
and would include:
a) removal of hardscape and refurbishment of ex-
isting building;
b) soil preparation and soil import for berms;

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 are currently two absences due to two industrial medical leaves.
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.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach
City Council
FROM: Ken Robertson, Associate Plannq wL-"
SUBJECT: Conditional Use Permits
DATE: January 31, 1994
Recommendation
Direct Staff to proceed with conditional use permit study already
in progress.
When it comes to land uses, the zoning ordinance is a
permissive ordinance. Only the land uses specifically listed in
each zone may be permitted. If a proposed land use is not
listed, it can not be permitted. The conditional use permit
(C.U.P.) adds flexibility and opportunity to this otherwise
strict format.
Thus, in addition to the commonly accepted land uses known to
be appropriate for each zone and permitted by right, other
specific land uses can also be permitted, but by C.U.P. only.
These other uses, because of their known characteristics and
associated impacts, may not be compatible with surrounding land
uses, depending on how they are developed and operated or where
they are located. Rather than prohibiting these "marginal" land
uses, an opportunity is created by the use of the C.U.P.
For example, basic retail stores and service businesses have
been found to be compatible with most other land uses, and are
thus permitted by right in all commercial zones. However, some
land uses, such as auto repair shops, car washes, and liquor
stores, etc. may not necessarily be compatible with surrounding
land uses (depending on their location or the way they are
operated). As such, these types of uses are permitted but only
with a C.U.P. The purpose of the C.U.P review and hearing
process is to ensure that the proposed location is acceptable,
and that conditions are placed on the land use to minimize its
impact on neighboring property.
The distinctions as to what uses are permitted by right, or
by C.U.P. are established in the permitted use lists of each
zone. These distinctions were probably originally based on a
( 0 vER) Pj
comparison with other city's ordinances or a model ordinance, and
were done to recognize existing land uses when the zoning code
was first adopted. The lists and distinctions are frequently
updated and amended either in response to a request from a
private party, or by legislation initiated by city officials
and/or staff. (Uses which are permitted by right and those
permitted by C.U.P. only must be specifically listed --State law
does not allow a "blanket" C.U.P. for "any use not listed").
The Council has already initiated a study to consider C.U.P.
requirements for various uses. This study is currently being
considered by the Planning Commission (first hearing was 2/1/94),
and will be brought to City Council in the near future.

3. Conditlonal use permits
The second administrative method of providing zoning relies' and flexibility frorn the strict
terms of a comprehensive zoning ordinance is the conditions! use permit. c 65901. Typically, fol-
lowing a list of permitted uses in each zone, a local zoning ordinance will provide for other uses
that are not permitted as a matter or right, but for which a conditional use permit must be obtained.
The conditional use permit is well recognized by zoning adminisrrators and the courts as a neces-
sary and proper zoning flexibility device. Upron v. Gray, 269 Cal. App. 2d 352 (1969), Groch v.
City of Berkeley, 118 Cal. App. 3d 518 (1981). "The decision to allow a conditional use permit is
an issue of vital public interest. It affects the quality of life of everyone in the area of the proposed
use," Penn -Co v. Board of Supen4sors, i 58 Cal. App. 3d 1072, 1084 (1984).
Under case law, a conditional use permit or other similar permit does not expire automati-
cally even when a condition to the permit provides for such expiration. For example. ifafter one
year, certain construction has not been commenced. In Community Development Comm'n of
Mendocino County v. City of Ft. Bragg, 204 Cal. App. 3d 1124 (1988), the court held that a condi-
tional use permit could not be revoked without notice and hearing despite an automatic expiration
condition and that such revocation must be reasonable.
The types of uses subject to obtaining a conditional use permit can be quite varied. The
courts have generally upheld the issuance of the permit by the administrative body if 0 applicable
laws are followed, including the existence of a valid general plan. Examples of conditional use
permits are:
Farm equipment repair shop. Upton v. Gray, supra.
J Religious synagogue in residential zone. Stoddard v. Edelman, 4 Cal. App. 3d 544
(1970).
0 Mobile. home park in R -A (residential -agricultural) zone. Jones v. City Council, 17

ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION 94- AUTHORIZING THE FINANCE DIRECTOR
AS THE DESIGNATED AGENT FOR ALL MATTERS PERTAINING TO FEDERAL AND
STATE DISASTER ASSISTANCE
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution 94 -
authorizing the Finance Director as the designated agent for all
matters pertaining to federal and state disaster assistance, in
order for the City to recover costs associated with the
1994 Northridge Earthquake.
Background:
On Tuesday January 18, 1994, FEMA was contacted to determine if
staff time spent on earthquake related activities would be
reimbursable. A Notice of Interest was filed with FEMA by
telephone upon determination that most City costs should be
recoverable.
Analysis:
Adoption of the attached resolution (in the format provided by
OES) is required prior to submission of claims. The Finance
Department is gathering the information required for preparation
of a claim to recover all eligible City costs.

RECOMMENDATION TO AMEND RESOLUTION 90-5422 BY ADDING A NEW FEE
FOR THE ISSUANCE OF A CERTIFICATE OF INSURANCE FOR THE
TENANT/USERS LIABILITY INSURANCE PROGRAM (TULIP)
Recommended Action:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached
resolution which amends Resolution 90-5422 (the Master Fee
Resolution) to establish a new user fee of $10.25 for the
issuance of a certificate of insurance for tenants/users of City
facilities.
Background:
The Tenant/User Liability Insurance Program (TULIP) is an
insurance program designed to provide liability insurance to
short-term renters/users of the City's public facilities. This
program is sponsored by the Independent Cities Risk Management
Authority (ICRMA) of which the City has been a member since 1985.
The Insurance is underwritten by American Casualty Company of
Reading, PA.
Individuals and organizations who desire to rent City facilities
for specified events are required to submit a certificate of
liability insurance which names the City as an additional
insured. For the larger organized events, production of the
certificate does not pose any particular problem. The Community
Resources Department has advised that there are occasions when an
individual or organization is unable to produce the required
certificate either because they are not a "formal" organization
which carries the necessary insurance or because the cost of
obtaining the coverage commercially is prohibitive.
Because other ICRMA member cities experienced similar problems
and there was a desire by the cities to provide a solution, the
ICRMA developed the TULIP program.
Under the TULIP program, proposed events are categorized by
"class" and "attendance". Depending on the particular
class/attendance, premiums range from $50.00 (low risk/low
attendance) to $600 for a one day event.
Advantages to providing this program include: (1) eliminates the
need for the City to require a Certificate of Insurance from
facilities users and the "last minute dash" by the user to obtain
the certificate in order to book the facility; (2) the City has
direct knowledge of the insurance terms and the financial
stability of the Insurer (the TULIP program is underwritten by
American Casualty Company of Reading, PA and administered by the
ICRMA's broker Rollings Huding Hall); (3) possibility of
attracting more facility users by having insurance available at
reasonable rates; and (4) convenience to both the City and user.
Analysis:
It is the City's policy to levy a fee to recover costs incurred
in connection with activities which accrue a benefit to an
individual. The proposed fee captures the cost of reviewing the
user's application for coverage, determining appropriate premium
and processing payment.
Fiscal Impact:
Depending on utilization, annual revenue from the certificate fee
will be $100-$250.

To: The Mayor and Members fthee, ty Council
From: Michael Schubach, Planni g for
Subject: Fiesta de las Artes Tran Orti tion Provisions p ons and Street
Closures.
Date: January 31, 1994
Recommendation:
Approve the street closures, and allocation of Proposition "C`.
funds for the WAVE bus transportation.
The Chamber is again requesting the closure of Pier Avenue from the
Strand to Manhattan Avenue, and Hermosa Avenue from 10th Street to 14th
Street for the Fiesta de las Artes event. Also included in this request is
the closure of 13th Street and 11th Street west of Hermosa Avenue to 20
feet east of the parking lot entrance.
The Chamber also requests the use of the WAVE vehicles to help transport
persons between the Fiesta, and the remote parking areas. The City
Council has approved this request for the past three years. -
The vehicles are available for this use, and Proposition C funds are
available and can be expended for this purpose.
It should be noted that based on the new WAVE contract, the hourly cost
for the use of the vehicles has risen from $12.01 to $18.88 per hour. The
Chamber is requesting the amount of $7,074 per event. The City currently
has approximately $38,000 in surplus Proposition C funds.

January 31, 1994
Dear Mayor Edgerton and Council Members,
The 32nd bi-annual Fiesta de las Artes is planned for May 28, 29,
30 and September 3, 4, and 5, 1994. Traditionally, the city
provides space and revises traffic patterns as requested by the
Chamber of Commerce to accommodate artists and visitors to the
Fiesta. We are again requesting the use of Pier Avenue from the
Strand to Manhattan Avenue, and Hermosa Avenue from 10th Street
to 14th Street. As in the past, we plan the closure of 13th
Street and 11th Street west of Hermosa Avenue to 20 feet east of
the parking lot entrance. We will leave the required space for
emergency vehicles.
Over the past two years, our Fiesta Organizing Committee has met
extensively with department heads of Public Works, Police and
Fire Departments, General Services, Planning Department and
Community Resources. These discussions have resulted in revisions
in site management that have improved the event logistics.
Subsequent conversations with the above mentioned department
heads have confirmed satisfaction regarding the revised plan.
For the past three years, the City Council has approved the
utilization of WAVE vehicles for transporting fairgoers to and
from satellite parking areas, while offering the WAVE program
maximum exposure to the community. Approximately 100,000 visitors
are downtown enjoying Hermosa Beach during the three days of each
event. A large percentage of these people are Hermosa Beach
residents and neighboring communities.

Page 2 (cont'd)
According to Michael Schubach's office, surplus.funds continue to
be available and the contract allows for the use of Proposition C
funds for special event transportation.
By using a larger number of small vehicles, trip frequency
increases, while traffic problems associated with large school
buses, pedestrian traffic and vehicular traffic decreases. With
WAVE shuttles, we will then use the full amount of the Fiesta
transportation budget, which is approximately $8,000 for the 1994
events.
In closing, we are requesting council approval for the 1994
Memorial Day and Labor Day Fiesta de las Artes events. Chamber
of Commerce Fiesta Committee members and City staff will continue
the tradition of meeting as a group before and after each event
to ensure a safe, well-planned and professionally managed event.
Specific items requesting approval:
1. Closure of the above mentioned streets to thru traffic
from 6:00 am to 8:00 pm on the three days of each of the
events.
2. Approval for participation by local merchants in sidewalk
sales on the show dates.
3. Allocation of Proposition C funds to operate the WAVE
vehicles in the amount of $7,074.00 per event.
4. Assistance from the aforementioned departments listed
above.
The Chamber of Commerce will supply the City of Hermosa Beach
with appropriate liability insurance rider, professional street
cleaning after each event and close coordination with City staff
in the production of these prestigious community events. We will
cooperate with merchants in the affected areas to keep the
maximum number of streets open to provide access to parking lots
and businesses.
Page 3 (cont'd)
The Chamber, along with our community is proud to present this
widely renowned and established event twice a year. The Fiesta
brings positive attention to our beautiful city and attracts many
thousands of visitors.
We thank the City of Hermosa Beach and the Council for their
anticipated continued support.
Sincerely,
HERMOSA BEACH HAMBER OF COMMERCE

CIP 90-616, EARTHQUAKE REINFORCEMENT OF CLARK BUILDING
AWARD OF BID - PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING & FINAL DESIGN
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Award the contract in the amount of $25,000 to Barelli and
Associates, Inc. of Los Angeles, CA, to perform preliminary
engineering and final design for seismic retrofit of the
Clark building.
2. Authorize the Mayor to execute and the City Clerk to attest
to the engineering services agreement subject to approval by
the City Attorney.
3. Authorize the Director of Public works to make necessary ad-
justments within the approved budget.
Background:
Pursuant to Government Code Section 8875 et seq. (SB -547), all cities
are required to identify unreinforced masonry buildings and prepare a
seismic hazard mitigation program.
A City-wide inspection was made and the Clark building is the only
City -owned unreinforced masonry building.
Analysis:
The Clark Building is in need of seismic strengthening to mitigate
the hazard this building represents during an earthquake. The com-
pletion date for this project, including construction, is January 1,
1995. Registered Structural Engineers are required to complete the
preliminary engineering and structural analysis necessary to make the
final design. Modifications to the building will also be required to

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Regular Meeting of
Hermosa Beach City Council February 8, 1994
SCHOOL DISTRICT LEASE AGREEMENT: VALLEY PARK
Recommendation
It is recommended by staff that the City authorize the Mayor to sign an
amendment to the City's existing agreement with the School District for the
use of North School property located in Valley Park to include payment for
the monthly water service effective retroactively to January 1, 1994.
Background
The City and School District entered into an agreement in 1989 for the use of
the 2.2 acre parcel located in Valley Park that belongs to the District
(Attachment A). At that time, the City renovated the property for recreational
use by installing a new irrigation system and planting turf. The City has paid
for contract mowing and ongoing maintenance on the site (annual cost
estimated $9,000).
Historically, the South Bay Union High School District paid for the water
service as part of their agreement for the use of North School as an adult
school facility.
Analysis
North School is no longer being used by the High School District(s). With
that, Redondo Unified contacted Superintendent Gross to notify her that they
would not continue to pay the bill. Dr. Gross requested that the City amend
its contract to agree to pay for all utilities and maintenance associated with
the property including water service (Attachment B).
1j
P
Notwithstanding the impact this additional expenditure will have on the
general fund (annual impact estimated at $3,600) it would be within the spirit
of the City's original commitment (to maintain the land for general public use)
to pay for irrigation. And while it is clear that there is no impending threat to
prohibit public enjoyment of this parkland, the City's willingness to assist the
District with this vacant property ensures that it will be well maintained
through the years.
Fiscal Impact: FY 93-94 $1,800. Annual Impact: $3,600
Other alternatives :
1. Do not amend agreement.
2. Request additional information.

Honorable Mayor and Members Regular Meeting
of the Hermosa Beach City Council of February 8, 1994
RESOLUTION NO. 94- APPROVING APPLICATION FOR GRANT FUNDS
FOR THE URBAN TREE PLANTING COMPETITIVE GRANT PROGRAM
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Approve Resolution No. 94- , a resolution of the
City of Hermosa Beach City Council approving the
application for grant funds for the Urban Tree Planting
Competitive Grant Program for the projects identified as
Biltmore and South School Parks.
Approve estimated revenue of $219,729 from the Los
Angeles County Regional Park and Open Space District and
appropriation of these funds to CIP 92-501, South School
Park.
Background:
The Urban Tree Planting Competitive Grant Program was established
by the enactment of Section 8.a.3.c of Los Angeles County
Proposition A, Safe Neighborhood Parks, Gang Prevention, Tree
Planting, Senior and Youth Recreation, Beaches and Wildlife
Protection, which voters approved on November 3, 1992. This
section of the proposition has provided for $5 million to be
awarded on a competitive basis for the purpose of planting trees
in public places as urban beautification projects. The Los
Angeles County Regional Park and Open Space District administers
this grant program. It is the Districts intention to make
funding from this program available through several funding
cycles. For the first funding cycle, a maximum of 1.25 million
will be available.
Analysis:
Biltmore Park
The City Council in the FY 93-94 budget allocated $28,000 to
provide landscaping on the Biltmore Hotel site, CIP 92-523. An
additional $10,000 was transferred to CIP 92-523 from the
Greenbelt Landscaping project CIP 90-511. Of this $38,000
budgeted, $16,165 was used for the demolition and removal of
existing streets and parking areas on the Biltmore site and
$6,000 has been approved for the preparation of working drawings
for the park improvement. This leaves a balance of $15,835 in
the Biltmore account. As the preferred alternative for the park
conceptual plan is estimated to cost $118,000 to construct there
exists an approximate shortfall of $100,000 in available funding.
In an effort to secure these additional funds, the Public Works
staff is in the process of preparing two applications for grant
monies. The aforementioned L.A. County Urban Tree Planting
Competitive Grant Program and the California Department of
Forestry National Small Business Administration Tree Planting
Program (the CDF grant does not require a Council resolution to
apply). Assuming that the City of Hermosa Beach's applications
are approved project agreements could be executed as early as May
of 1994 for the County grant and in August 1994 for the CDF
grant. In the mean time, work on the undergrounding of utilities
and infrastructure upgrades will be performed so that the site
will be ready for irrigation, landscaping and park improvements,
phased as the grant monies become available.
South School Park
The City Council in the FY 93-94 budget allocated $100,000
towards the development of South School park, CIP 92-501. In
December 1993 the Los Angeles County Regional Park and Open Space
District approved the City's per parcel allocation application
for the amount of $219,729. The City Council, at their January
25, 1994 meeting approved an allocation of $20,000 to pay for
architectural consultant services. The nearly $300,000 left in
the South School Park project budget leaves a shortfall of
approximately $350,000 from complete park development. In an
effort to secure these additional funds the Public Works
Department is preparing Urban Tree Planting and CDF grant
applications for the South School Park project. Grant monies are
expected to be dispersed in May and August of 1994. Work on
Phase I of the project is scheduled to be nearing completion by
that time so a clean transition into the Phase II work included
in the grant applications may be realized.
Fiscal Impact:
None at this time.

Regular Meeting
of February 8, 1994
HERMOSA AVENUE STREET REHABILITATION CIP 92-141
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the award of the Civil Engineering
contract for the Hermosa Avenue Street
Rehabilitation project to Teledine Engineering,
Incorporated in the amount of $27,623.
2. Authorize the Mayor to execute and the City
attorney to attest the contract subject to
approval by the City Attorney.
3•: Authorize the Director of Public Works to make
minor changes to the contract as necessary within
budget.
Background:
The City Council in the FY 1993/94 budget appropriated $235,000
for Street Rehabilitation of Hermosa Avenue from Pier Avenue to
Herondo Avenue. On January 3, 1994 the Public Works Department
sent out notices requesting proposals for consulting services to
prepare engineering plans, specifications, cost estimates,
schedules and related engineering documents for this
rehabilitation project. Four proposals were received by the
Public Works Department on January 20, 1994.
Analysis:
The Public Works Department analysis of the proposals revealed
that all four met the City's requirements with regards to:scope
of work, technical expertise, and legal responsibilities. The
associated fee proposals were as follows:
Teledine Engineering, Inc. $27,623
Willdan Associates $39,224
Harris and Associates $44,302
BSI Consultants, Inc. $62,828
As all proposals were basically equal in scope, the Teledine
Engineering proposal seems to offer the best value. Telephone
calls to previous clients have shown Teledine to be competent and
expedient engineers. The Public works Department therefor
recommends award of the Hermosa Avenue Rehabilitation design
contract to Teledine Engineering Incorporated in the amount of
$27,623.
As the Downtown Business Area Enhancement District Commission has
recently recommended that redesign of the downtown streetscape be
a priority, staff foresees some overlap between the Hermosa
Avenue rehabilitation project and the streetscape project.
Certainly redesign of the Hermosa Avenue street geometrics must
be analyzed before work on the rehabilitation design can be
completed. Though the current scope of work does not include
investigations into roadway and parking geometry or streetscape
aesthetics these items could be added to this contract. The
approximate cost for these services would be in the $5,000 to
$8,000 range. Other options would be to:
1. Delay the Hermosa Avenue rehabilitation project
until after the Downtown Streetscape is designed
(1 to 2 years).
2. Rehabilitate Hermosa Avenue from Herondo Avenue to
8th Street, leaving that portion of Hermosa Avenue
in the downtown area to be done at a later date.
The problems with these two alternatives are the 18 month time
limit to the existing grant used to fund this project and the
extra costs involved when reducing the rehabilitation into too
small a project. Staff therefore recommends addressing the
Hermosa Avenue streetscape upgrades at the same time as the
rehabilitation project.
Funding:
Funding for this project (subject to MTA and CALTRANS approval)
will be from the following sources:
FY 93-94 Budget $235,000
Proposition C Local Highway Program $208,000
State Local transportation partnership
program Grant ($133,392 applied for) 50% $ 66,696
Total available funds $509,696
- 2 -
I
Fiscal Impact:
Design of the Hermosa Avenue rehabilitation project will require
$27,623 of the $509,696 tentative funding for the project.
Preparation and analysis of the Hermosa Avenue streetscape
upgrades will require an additional $5,000 to $8,000.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Regular Meeting of
Hermosa Beach City Council February 8, 1994
SUBJECT: ORDINANCE 93-1093, CORRECTION
PURPOSE: AMENDMENTS TO THE OIL CODE REGARDING THE DEFINITION OF
GRADE AND TO ALLOW FENCING LESS THAN 5 FEET FROM THE
PROPERTY LINE
Recommendation
To introduce the attached ordinance to repeal and correct the
previously adopted ordinance 93-1093.
Background
At the meeting of July 13, 1993, the City Council adopted the
subject ordinance. The clear intent of the ordinance was to
amend two sections of the oil code to: 1) Clarify the definition
of "grade" for the purpose of measuring height of structures
(i.e. storage tanks) to not include excavations for well cellars
or storage tanks, and; 2) To allow fencing to be constructed less
than 5 feet from the property line.
Analysis
The actual adopted ordinance did not properly mark the text to be
eliminated under both Section 1 and Section 2, which was the
intent of the amendments.
The corrected ordinance clearly marks the text to be eliminated
by overstriking said text. These typographical corrections are
necessary to carry out the clearly stated intent and substance of
the adopted ordinance as discussed and presented. Otherwise the
text does not make sense.

(Findings:
A. Section 21A-1.20 defines grade as the lowest point of the
elevation of the finished surface.... between the structure
and the property line or when the property line is more than
five feet from the structure, between the structure and a
line five feet from the structure;
B. This definition is sometimes overly restrictive because when
measuring the height of a structure from grade, such as from
an intentionally excavated well cellar for a storage tank,
the height would have to be taken from the lowered grade;
C. The requirement of Section 21A -2.9(c) that fencing be setback
a minimum of five (5) feet from the property line is
unnecessary and inconsistent with the zoning ordinance which
has no setback requirements for commercially or industrially
zoned property.
D. These amendments to the grade definition, and fencing
setback, since it only applies to the City maintenance yard
site at 555 6th Street, will result in insignificant or
negligible impacts as set forth in the Addenda to EIR for oil
development at the City Yard;
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Hermosa
Beach, California, does hereby ordain that the Oil Code text be
amended as follows:

SECTION 1. Amend Section 21A-1.20, regarding the definition of
GRADE to read as follows::
of "Grade" (adjacent ground elevation) means the lowest
point of elevation of the finished surface level of the
ground, paving or sidewalk, -
excluding excavations for well cellars and storage
tanks, within the enclosed area of the privacy wall
described in Section 21A -2.9(c)"
SECTION 2. Amend Section 21A -2.9(C), second paragraph first
sentence, to eliminate the 5 -foot setback requirement for
fencing, to read as follows:
"Setbacks for such fencing shall conform to the
provisions of the zoning ordinance for industrial or
commercial property, but in ne ease shall be—less--than
-€ive-€eet-€reit the-prepei-ty 11ner-11
SECTION 3.
This ordinance repeals and corrects Ordinance
93-1093, which did not properly mark text to be
eliminated under Section 1 and Section 2, in order to
amend the text in accordance with the action and
intent of the City Council at their meeting of July
13, 1993.
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
circulated in the City of Hermosa Beach, in the
manner provided by law.
SECTION 5. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and
adoption of this ordinance, shall enter the same in
the book of original ordinances of said city, and
shall make minutes of the passage and adoption
thereof in the records of the proceedings of the City

UNREINFORCED MASONRY BUILDING HAZARD MITIGATION PROGRAM
PROGRESS REPORT
RECOMMENDATION
1) Direct staff to prepare an enforcement ordinance that
requires seismic strengthening of unreinforced masonry
buildings (URM) pursuant to the following schedule:
a) All assembly buildings with an occupant load in
excess of 300 persons shall be strengthened by
January 1, 1995.
b) All buildings undergoing significant renovations
shall be strengthened at the same time renovations
are accomplished.
c) Any building not strengthened by virtue of item (b)
above by January 1, 1995 shall be subsequently
strengthened by January 1, 1997.
2) Direct the Planning Commission to study allowing zoning
incentives (i.e. reduce parking standards) for the
replacement of URM buildings.
BACKGROUND
At the January 1994 meeting the City Council directed staff to
prepare a status report regarding seismic mitigation programs.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 8875 et seq. (SB -547) all
cities are required to identify unreinforced masonry (URM)
buildings and to develop a program to mitigate the hazard these
buildings represent during earthquakes.
On April 25, 1989 the City Council approved an agreement with the
firm of Melvyn Green and Associates to identify all URM buildings
and prepare a seismic hazard mitigation program.
To date, a field survey of URM buildings has been completed and
the building owners notified. The results of that survey were
reported to the City Council on December 12, 1989 and to the
State Seismic Safety Commission.
Current state law does not mandate that cities required URM
buildings to be strengthened. The buildings do pose a very real
hazard in earthquakes however and staff recommended that the
prudent course of action would be to require these buildings to
be strengthened in the February 13, 1990 staff report.
PROGRESS REPORT
Of the original list of URM buildings 46 remain to be mitigated.
One (1) city -owned building, the Clark Building at 861 Valley
Drive, has been engineered and bids for the work have been
received and reviewed. One other building is ready for permit
issuance. Three structures have been seismiclly retrofitted and
one structure is currently under construction.
ANAT.VSTS
The recommendation, as indicated in the Seismic Hazard Mitigation
Report prepared by Melvyn Green & Associates, provided for
mandatory strengthening of all URM buildings by January 1, 1997.
Further, all URM assembly buildings with a high occupant load
(over 300 occupants) and URM buildings undergoing significant
renovation would be strengthened by January 1, 1995.
The proposed timetable provided affected building owners adequate
opportunity to explore options to either strengthen or demolish
their URM buildings.
In addition, since the city is probably not in a position to
offer financial assistance to affected building owners, staff
recommends that the Planning Commission be directed to study
allowing zoning incentives to strengthen or replace URM
buildings. An example of a zoning incentive would be to allow a
URM building to be replaced with a new building without meeting
the current parking requirements. To a large extent this
incentive is already in place with the parking exemptions given
to the downtown district in the recently adopted downtown parking
ordinance. Allowing such incentives would likely hasten removal
of the hazard presented by URM buildings. An added benefit of
such an incentive would be a building meeting all current
building codes instead of only strengthened structurally.

COUNTY LIFEGUARD AND BEACH MAINTENANCE CONTRACT
EXTENSION
Recommendation
It is recommended by staff that Council authorize the addition of the sun
shelters to the marketing package authorized by the City at the January 11,
1994 meeting.
Background
On January 4, 1994, the County Board of Supervisors approved their staffs
recommendation to extend the City's contract through June 30, 1994. This
extension was based on the offer from the City for $116,000 in new and
existing subsidies (Attachment A).
Out of concern over the reduced contract term, Council voted to approve the
contract amendment with the exception of the three (3) sun shelters. Council
agreed to proceed in selecting locations for the proposed shelters but not to
permit their construction until a longer contract term is approved by the Board
of Supervisors.
Analysis
Staff presented this offer to Beaches and Harbors and to Supervisor Dana's
office for review. On both counts, the response from the County was not
favorable. In a letter to staff, the Director of Beaches and Harbors stated that
he could not return to the Board with a recommendation to approve our
amendment without all of the subsidies initially offered.
Recognizing the Council's concerns over the construction of shelters in light
of the fast approaching summer deadline, staff still contends that if provisions
for demolishing and restoring the areas to their original state if the County
contract should be terminated are enough to protect the City from any
downside in the unlikely event that the County would elect to terminate the
Recreation Agreement.
Fiscal Impact: None

At the December 14, 1993 City Council meeting, staff was authorized to offer the County
a subsidy package totalling over $100,000 to include marketing programs and restroom
maintenance in exchange for a five (5) year contract.
Staff provided the Supervisors with the revised offer (see Attachment A) on December 15,
1993. The Supervisors approved a County staff recommendation to extend the contract
through June 30, 1994 with a unanimous vote at their January 4, 1994 Board meeting (see
Attachment B).
Analysis
Clearly the County -approved term falls significantly short of the City's five (5) year
request, however, if the Citv restricts its subsidy offer to the same time period there should
be no significant downside to this interim agreement. Based on conversations with
Supervisor Dana's staff, the shorter term was recommended to allow for Beaches and
Harbors to look at long term solutions; to negotiate agreements with other cities; and to
assess the County's long term fiscal outlook.
If Council agrees in concept to this sit (6) month extension, staff will work with Beaches
and Harbors to draft an agreement that will include the Cites commitment to the attached
subsidies for the six (6) month period with an option to extend them commensurate with
future contract extensions --ranted by the Countv. With continued cooperation between
the Citv_ and the County, these Nital services can survive these tough economic times to the
benefit of county residents and visitors for years to come.

Dear Supervisor Dana:
The City of Hermosa Beach thanks the Board of Supervisors for extending
lifeguard and beach maintenance services through December 28, 1993 in
order to allow time for new Council members to review and take action on
this critical issue. We are also appreciative of the efforts your staff made in
keeping the City up to date on County budget developments and the resultant
funding shortfalls projected for Beaches and Harbors.
In response to the contract extension, at their December 14, 1993 meeting,
Council voted unanimously to add $40,000 in new marketing program
subsidies to the City's previous package (see Attachment A). In combination
with current marketing programs and the new subsidies that were acceptable
to County staff from the previous package (Attachment B), the City's offer
totals over $100,000.
hi light of these items and of the City's continued commitment to explore long
term solutions to the beach services funding problem, we respectfully request
that the Board approve an extension of beach services for five (5) years. To
that end, we are prepared to work with County staff to draft a contract
reflecting our offer as presented following your approval.
Honorable Deane Dana

The City is sympathetic to the tough decisions the Supervisors have been
faced with during this fiscal cycle and we are proud that the Board has
consistently placed responsible public service at the forefront by voting to
retain these vital services even through the most difficult times in our
negotiations. With that and a renewed spirit of cooperation from the City, we
await your response and look forward to working diligently with Beaches and
Harbors to ensure the future of beach services. Thank you in advance for
your time and consideration.

Honorable Edmund Edelman, Chairman
County of Los Angeles
Board of Supervisors
Hall of Administration
500 W. Temple Street
Los Angeles, California 90012
Dear Chairman Edelman:
The City of Hermosa Beach respectfully requests your approval for a renewal of our
contract for Lifeguard and beach maintenance services for a period of five (5) years.
Attached you will find a list of subsidies the City offers to assist the County in meeting the
Beaches and Harbors budget shortfall. The items listed include new revenue sources;
subsidies the City will continue to provide (per the previous contract); and projected long
term revenue options. The package includes $114,000 in newly proposed items. The City
would continue to provide existing subsidies and services that represent over $297,000 in
direct cost to the City. The potential annual impacts of the proposed long term items have
not been calculated.
Preserving lifeguard services became the primary objective of discussions between the City
and County, therefore, we spent considerable time exploring beach maintenance services
and marketing programs to see what we could afford to add to the expense side for the
City without compromising safety services.
Due to our own grim budget outlook, we recognized that we also needed to look at long
term solutions (such as the Pier concession and parking lot revenues) that may provide
ongoing funding sources for beach services. While these items will not provide an
immediate benefit to the County (i.e., FY 93-94), we wanted to present them to you so
that they could be considered by the Supervisors as representative of the City's willingness
to identify renewable funding sources that would impact beach services for more than an
isolated fiscal year. At the Board's request, the City is prepared to address these items
contractually to solidify our commitment to the County.
We understand that the City's current offer may fall short of what would meet the
County's anticipated funding gap. In light of that, while we ask for your most serious
consideration in accepting what we can provide in the short term, if you require
additional cost savings for FY 93-94, we urge you to direct Beaches and Harbors
ATTACILMENT "B"

staff to reduce service levels to the extent necessary to meet the shortfall in lieu of a
total withdrawal of County services.
Like the County, this fiscal year has been disheartening for our City. After cutting City
services and putting to bed what was a difficult budget to balance, we were immediately
faced with the threat of library closure and beach service withdrawal from the County.
We are grateful that the Board took decisive action to sustain our library services at a
reduced level as a good faith effort to continue serving communities. We ask for similar
consideration here and have confidence that you will see fit to preserve the best level of
service possible to all beaches in the County in the short term so we can work together to
find innovative ways to seek more permanent solutions to this funding problem in the long
term.
As we have expressed in previous correspondence, we applaud the County for providing
this exemplary regional service. We also commend the Supervisors for working with the
City on this contract in the best interests of public safety. Over a half a century ago,
Hermosa Beach was the birthplace of what has evolved to be perhaps the best ocean
lifeguard operation in the world. As ever, we are committed to working with you now and
in years to come to ensure that future generations of LA County residents have safe and
clean beaches to visit. Thank you for your consideration of our request. We anxiously
await your response and direction.
Sincerely,

NEW SUBSIDIES/COST SAVINGS: PROPOSED $114,000 ANNUALLY
• RESTROOM CLEANING: The City will take over the
contract currently paid for by the County.
SAVINGS TO THE COUNTY (CONTRACT COST)
SERVICE REDUCTIONS: The City requested that Beaches
and Harbors staff provide cost saving figures accounting for
service reduction scenarios (attached) the City would agree to a
50% maintenance service reduction to reduce the cost of
services in Hermosa Beach. County staff stated that they
would not achieve true cost reductions with service changes
solely in Hermosa Beach. Due to the fact that negotiations with
other cities are still in progress, the City requests that
maintenance service reductions be considered in other contract
negotiations in order to successfully recover costs.

LONG TERM PROGRAMS TO BE CONSIDERED BY COUNTY:
REVENUES/SAVINGS TO BE DETERMINED
Page 3
♦ PIER CONCESSION: The City is currently involved in planning for Municipal Pier
renovation. We have received $1.5 million in Proposition A funds to renovate the Pier
and would request that the County assist us with Prop A monies to work on the
lifeguard headquarters as part of the project. Once completed (we are already well
into the design phase) we would propose to dedicate Pier Concession revenues to
beach services.
PARKING LOT REVENUES: During negotiations, County staff initiated
discussions regarding the use of some City owned property for beach parking with fees
dedicated to beach services. The City is dedicating substantial resources to downtown
revitalization. If the County could assist the City with some capital funds for beach
parking lot construction, the City could commit parking revenues to the County for
beach services on a long term basis.
VOLUNTEER PILOT PROGRAM (RESERVES): Understanding that the budget
shortfall may be felt for years to come, the City would like to work in partnership with
the County to develop a reserve program for lifeguards and beach clean-up programs.
Hermosa Beach would provide meeting facilities and support for a training center to
initiate the program which could be developed County wide.
• SERVICE FEES PILOT PROGRAM: Cities have initiated ambulance service fees
for calls as a means to assist with cost recovery. If Beaches and Harbors could design
a program for Lifeguard calls, the City would be willing to serve as a pilot project for
this type of effort.
• CITY OPERATED SERVICES: With due respect to the outstanding services the
County provides, if Lifeguard and maintenance work cannot be delivered within the
diminishing budget parameters, the City would ask that the County allocate funds to
the City to allow the City to contract or operate services within the budget constraints.
This option is emphasized as a last resort as the City is most interested in continued
County services.

FROM: STEPHEN R. BURRELL, CITY MANAGER G
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING THE TIME OF REGULAR CITY
COUNCIL MEETINGS
DATE: JANUARY 20, 1994
At its meeting of January 11, 1994, members of the City Council expressed a desire to
change the time of the regular City Council meetings from 7:OOpm to 7:30pm. Attached

RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING THE TIME OF REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS
Recommendation:
Adopt the attached draft resolution establishing 7:00 p:m. as the
time for the holding of regular City Council meetings, effective
June 1, 1993, to allow ample time to publicize the change.
Background:
At its meeting of March 9, 1993, the City Council directed the
preparation of an ordinance for Council consideration to change the _
time of regular City Council meetings from 7:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
A review of the current Code reveals that a resolution, not an
ordinance, would be the appropriate document to effect this change.
While Section 2-1 of the Municipal Code had previously specified
the time and the days of the month that regular meetings were held
(per attached Ordinance No. N.S. 492, adopted June 18, 1974),
Ordinance No. 86-823 (also attached), adopted on February 11, 1986,
amended Municipal Code Section 2-1 to read, in part, as follows:
"The city council shall hold regular meetings at least
once a . month at times fixed by resolution of the city
council."
A resolution (No. 86-4961) was adopted by the Council on July 26,
1986, which, in part, establishes the regular City Council meeting
dates as the second and fourth Tuesdays.of each month, but makes no
mention of meeting times. Extensive research of Council minutes
and resolutions on and around the adoption dates of the above -noted
ordinance and resolution has thus far not revealed a resolution
establishing 7:30 p.m. as the regular meeting time, although that
had been the time previously specified in the Code and to date has
consistently been the time.of regular. meetings.

VACANCIES - BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS
CABLE TELEVISION ADVISORY BOARD - ONE VACANT SEAT
A vacancy has arisen on the Cable Television Advisory Board due to
the recent resignation of Board Member Gerry Schweitzer (see
attached letter). Unlike the City's other boards and commissions,
which are regular and on-going, this is a temporary board with a
single focus. The five members were appointed by Council on March
24, 1992 to review and evaluate proposals for the City's cable
television franchise and to make recommendations to City Council on
its findings. It is anticipated that the work of this board will
be completed by the end of May, 1994, and that the Board will be
disbanded at that time.
While the normal procedure with other boards or commissions would
be to fill the vacancy, due to the nature of this single -topic,
temporary board and the fact that its work is nearly completed,
Council may wish to consider the option of not appointing a
replacement for Mr. Schwietzer.
If Council does wish to appoint a new member to fill the vacancy,
consideration should be given toward whether it makes sense to go
through the normal process of advertising for applicants, which is
time-consuming, or whether it would be appropriate to appoint from
among the 13 other individuals who had submitted applications two
years for this board but were not appointed, if any are still
interested. The City Clerk's office would have to contact those
applicants to ascertain their interest in being appointed at this
time. If any are interested, appointment could be made at the next
meeting.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council make a policy decision with
regard to an unexpected vacancy on the Cable Television Advisory
Board:
1) To not fill the vacancy and simply allow the board to complete
its function with only the remaining four members; or
2) To fill the vacancy by:
a) Appoint from the applications previously submitted
to the City Clerk's office, or
b) Direct the City Clerk to advertise the vacancy and
invite applications.

Honorable Mayor and Members Regular Meeting of
of the Hermosa Beach City Council January 25, 1994
REQUEST OF COUNCIL MEMBER BENZ CONCERNING
CITY ATTORNEY SERVICES !I
Recommendation
Review the report prepared by Ralph Anderson & Associates for Manhattan Beach (copy
available for review in the City Clerk's office) and determine whether or not the City
Council is interested in having staff prepare a similar evaluation.
Background
Council member Benz requested that the Council consider having City Attorney services
be provided by a direct staff person rather than the current approach of contracting with
the law firm of Oliver, Barr & Vose. The City of Manhattan Beach recently had a study
conducted (copy attached) to determine whether or not it would be more cost effective to
bring their City Attorney services in-house. The conclusion of the report was that, given
the findings in Manhattan Beach, consideration should be given to making a possible
transition to providing general City Attorney services in-house.
It is important to keep in mind that the City does have, and most likely will continue to
have, a need for a number of specialized legal services. The current array of litigation
matters require the services of attorneys that would be outside the expertise, most likely,
of a staff City Attorney.
If the City Council is interested in a similar review, it is suggested that the effort begin
now and it be brought to a conclusion as part of the 1994-95 budget. Staff would proceed
first by completing a review of all legal costs and develop a recommendation for City
Council as to whether or not it would be desirable to retain a consulting firm to perform a
study similar to the one Manhattan Beach received.
Respectfully submitted,
411,
Stephen R. B 11
City Manager
