- 3 - Minutes 11-13-84
r
The Public Hearing was opened. Coming forward to speak
were:
Joe Petrucelli, President of the Police Officers Assn. -
stated that the Assn. had no serious problems when the
City Manager acted as negotiator in the past. He felt the
current negotiator was not prepared and that there were no
good -faith negotiations. He stressed that the Hermosa
Beach firemen were making more than the policemen, the
City offer cut benefits, the proposed contract is an
insult and advised the City Council to resume
negotiations.
Jerry Leonard, General Counsel for California Police
and Sheriffs - felt quality of Hermosa Beach Police
Department is excellent - they have had 9-10 bargaining
sessions since June - felt the City Council was sold a
bill of goods - stressed lack of communication and
inconsistency in bargaining pattern - they are willing to
continue to negotiate - felt they have a basis for a legal
alternative.
Wally Moore, Vice President Hermosa Beach Police Offiers
Assn. - showed scale of pay range of South Bay cities -
suggested taking average of 12 South Bay cities and giving
Hermosa Beach Police the median average - wants to go back
to the bargaining table.
Mike Lacey, Comedy and Magic Club, 1018 Hermosa Avenue -
felt there were no problems at present in the downtown
area like those of five years ago - there has been a
great change due to the quality of the Police Department..
Tim Thompson, 1820 Ardmore - stated it was insulting to be
at the bottom of the wage ladder and there was a real
potential for deterioration.
Mike Franzel, 15 - 15th Street - serious mistake not
bargaining with Police Department.
Edith Webber, 2207 Pacific Coast Highway - stated the City
Council had complete disregard for safety of citizens -
money for negotiator was completely unrealistic and
unnecessary - City Council had no desire to negotiate -
asked City Council not to create a second class police
force.
Don Arwine, 830 - 9th Street - salary schedule is
shameful.
Jack Eales, Rector, St. Cross Church, 1818 Monterey -
stressed the need for trained men and the necessity to
negotiate in good faith.
Larry Ramos, California Department of Justice, Agent with
Attorney General's office - stressed salary and quality
- 4 - Minutes 11-13-84
run parallel - less quality means more acts of police
disruptions.
Joel Shapiro, 502 - 8th Street - felt LAPD can't do as
good a job as HBPD, response time is exceptional, City
should negotiate in good faith.
Mayor Pro Tem Wood stated that the average salary for a
Hermosa Beach Police Officer was $30,000 and benefits
were 63% of salary.
Terry Tracy, negotiator, Richards, Watson, Dreyfuss &
Gershon - reiterated the City's last offer and distributed
copies to Council. Proposed were:
Special Duty Pay - 10% of monthly salary rather than flat
rate; Clarification of Language of Special Duty Pay -
three year term; Formula for automatically increasing
salaries computed over the next two years - CPI plus 1%
with an upper limit of 6%; Health & Welfare " same dollar
amount contribution by City; Mental Health Program -
effective January 1, 1985; Uniform Allowance - increase;
Educational Incentive Increase - increased to $125/mo.
with AA, $250/mo. with BA; Salaries - Officers and
Sergeants 4.5% increase, Lieutenants 12% increase and
Captains 10% increase.
This all totals up to an increase of 6% total compensa-
tion for the first year (approximately 50% above the CPI).
Ms. Tracy stated that a study done by the League of Cali-
fornia Cities in April of 1984 of comparably sized cities
(Gardena, Culver City, Palos Verdes Estates, Manhattan
Beach, Hermosa Beach, Beverly Hills, El Segundo, Seal
Beach, Laguna Beach and San Clemente) showed the following
average total compensation:
Comp. Sized Cities
Hermosa Beach
Manhattan Beach
Beach Cities with
Comp. Sized P.D.
Hermosa Beach
Police Officers Sergeants
$3,48.1 $3927
$3,510 $4,047
$3,096
$3,312 $3,636
$3,510 $4,047
A survey of the Finance Departments conducted by the City
prior to the start of negotiations indicated that of the
12 South Bay Cities surveyed, Hermosa Beach ranked 6th in
terms of the percentage of the budget allocated for the
Police Departments.
Ms. Tracy felt that both parties negotiated in good faith
and that the City's last offer was a reasonable one.
Responding to the claim that the Police Department had
received no compensation increase last year, she advised
that they received a 5% increase in terms of the PERS
pick-up by the City.
- 5 - Minutes 11-13-84
Wally Moore, Vice President Police Officers Association,
spoke in rebuttal stating that he felt the negotiator had
very little understanding of Municipal Government - all
cities receive the same benefits - Hermosa Beach Police
are the lowest paid salary -wise in the South Bay -
Hermosa Beach has the lowest per capita police cost in
the South Bay.

HERMOSA BEACH CITY COUNCIL December 13, 1984
DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS FOR CHILD CARE CENTERS
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached
Resolution of Intention to direct the Planning Commission to
hold public hearings to consider amending the Hermosa Beach
Zoning Code to:
1. Define "child care facility"
2. Provide development standards regarding visual
access, review process, and expansion of use of
such facilities.
3. Require a State license prior to acceptance of a
Conditional Use Permit application for a child care
facility.
4. Grant authority to the Planning Commission to
approve Conditional Use Permits for child care
facilities.
Staff further recommends that the City Manager be directed
to prepare amendments to the Business license requirements
for child care facilities to effect the following:
1. That operators of child care facilities be
licensed by the State prior to applying for a business
license.
2. That the names and addresses of three responsible
persons who have known the applicant for at least one
year be required.
3. That two recent photographs for operators and
employees of child care facilities be required.
Background
At the direction of the City Council, a study was undertaken
to review development standards for pre-school and daycare
facilities. The mechanisms that were considered consist of
Conditional Use Permit requirements and business license
requirements.
Analysis
The methodology employed for this study consisted of the
following work tasks:
*Review existing development standards for child care
facilities
*Review conditions imposed on other types of commercial
facilities in the City of Hermosa Beach
*Discussions with other local agencies and the League
of Cities to determine state-of-the-art requirements
for child care facilities
*Conduct LOGIN search
*Consultation with the Pre-school Association of
California
*Review of State licensing requirements
*Develop recommendations
At present, the Hermosa Beach Zoning Code does not contain
any development standards for child care facilities.
Section 1000 requires a Conditional Use Permit for "day
nurseries, child care, or licensed homes for foster
children, when there is provided on the lot, or adjacent to
the premises a play lot completely fenced and containing not
less than six hundred (600) square feet in area, plus an
2
additional fifty (50) square feet for each child in excess
of nine." The Code does not define "day nurseries" or
"child care facilities".
Section 1403 of the Zoning Code gives the Board of Zoning
Adjustments the authority to grant Conditional Use Permits.
A public hearing is not required as part of this process.
Noticing is limited to property owners within 300 feet of
the project site.
The Municipal Code does not contain any specific
requirements for an applicant requesting a business license
to operate a child care facility. At present, it is
possible to apply for either a business license or
Conditional Use Permit before a State license has been
issued.
Examples of existing commercial uses in the City of Hermosa
Beach that are required to provide extensive information
regarding potential employees are taxicab companies and
cardrooms. Section 31-15 of the Municipal Code requires
that any applicant for a taxicab driver's license provide
three photographs taken within one year prior to applying
for the license. The applicant must also submit his/her
name, age, residence, last previous address, the length of
time at each address, marital status, and the names and
addresses of two persons who know the applicant. Section
31-17 of the Municipal Code requires fingerprinting of the
applicant.
To license employees of card rooms, Section 17-51.5 of the
Municipal Code requires a record of any convictions except
traffic offenses, an employment history for the past five
years, two photographs taken within the past two years, and
the names of three responsible persons who have known the
applicant for three years.
The League of California Cities, the County of Orange, and
the Cities of Manhattan Beach, Garden Grove, Placentia,
Irvine, San Juan Capistrano, and Fullerton were contacted to
determine state-of-the-art policies and implementation
programs for the regulation of child-care facilities. At
the request of the City of Hermosa Beach, the League of
California Cities information division conducted a
liturature search. As of 12-5-84, the League was unable to
locate any data regarding development standards for child
care facilities. The County of Orange and the cities
consulted did not have any specific regulations for child
care facilities beyond the State requirements. While a
Conditional Use Permit is required for this type of use,
conditions are generally related to parking, noise and hours
of operation in order to ensure compatibility with
residential uses. It has been the policy of the County of
Orange that the regulation of child care facilities by the
State preempts local agencies from imposing additional
restrictions on this type of use.
A literature search was conducted to locate pertinent data,
using the LOGIN computer program. The search did not reveal
any data on the regulation of child care facilities.
Gerald D. Speraw of the Preschool Association of California
was consulted regarding recommendations for development
standards. It was his opinion that the local agencies
should not become involved with operational standards. He
stated that this area is adequately handled by the State
Licensing Agency and City involvement would result in a
duplication of efforts. However, he did suggest that newly
licensed child care facilities could be required to provide
visual assess to all rooms as a condition of approval to the
Conditional Use Permit.
The California Department of Social Services, Community Care
Licensing Division is responsible for the licensing of
pre-schools and child care centers. Pre-schools and day
care centers are encompassed by the classification of child
care center. The State defines a child care center as "any
facility of any capacity other than a family day care home
in which less than 24-hour per day non-medical supervision
is provided for children in a group setting." A child is
defined as a person under 18 years of age. General
regulations are found in the Community Care Licensing
Manual, Title 22, Division 6. The Manual contains:
a) Regulations adopted by the Department of Social
Services (DSS) for the governance of its agents,
licensees, and/or beneficiaries
b) Regulations adopted by other State Departments
affecting DSS programs
c) Statutes from appropriate Codes which govern DSS
programs
5
d) Court decisions and
e) Operational standards by which DSS staff will evaluate
performance within DSS programs.
Article 3 of the Manual outlines application procedures.
Section 80019 deals specifically with Criminal Record
Clearance procedures. Exerpts from Section 80019 are
presented in Attachment A. As part of the Record Clearance
procedure, the prospective employee is fingerprinted.
Section 80066 requires that personnel records include prior
work experience.
80066 PERSONNEL RECORDS
(a) Employment application forms shall be completed and
maintained on each employee; shall be available to
the licensing agency for review, and shall contain
the following information:
(1) Employee's full name.
(2) Driver's license number if the employee is to
transport clients.
(3) Date of employment.
(4) A statement signed by the employee that he/she
is at least 18 years of age.
(5) Home address and phone number.
(6) Documentation of the educational background,
training and/or experience specified in Chapters
2 through 7.
(7) Past experience, including types of employment
and former employers.
Sections 80086 through 80088 regulate the physical
environment including buildings, grounds, fixtures,
furniture, equipment, and supplies.
The State Licensing Agency conducts a comprehensive
background check on potential operators and employees of
child care facilities. This includes an investigation of
any criminal convictions and fingerprinting of the
applicant. Additional requirements the City may wish to
consider are recent photographs of the applicant and names
and addresses of responsible persons who have known the
applicant for at least one year. These could be added to
the business license requirements for new facilities and
could be applied to existing facilities at the time of
license renewal. Language could be added to the Municipal
Code requiring operators of child care facilities to be
licensed by the State prior to applying for a business
license.
It is recommended that a definition for child care center be
provided in the Zoning Code and that development standards
be added to require the following:
1. All child care centers shall provide visual access to
all rooms from the exterior and the interior.
2. Each Conditional Use Permit for a child care center
shall be reviewed annually
3. Any increase in the number of pupils, building floor
area, or hours of operation will require review of the
Conditional Use Permit
4. All legal non -conforming child care centers will be
given a one (1) year amortization period
5. Any operator of a child care center must obtain a State
license prior to applying for a Conditional use Permit
The proposed amendments to the Zoning Code would affect all
new applications, the expansion of existing facilities, and
the continued operation of existing facilities. If the
Zoning Code is amended as proposed, all existing child care
centers would become legal non -conforming uses and would be
given a one year amortization period to comply with current
standards.
Also, if the conditions of approval for an existing facility
are not being fulfilled, the CUP could be revoked and a new
A
CUP application required. Conditions of approval for child
care facilities presently operating in Hermosa Beach are
presented in Attachment B.
It is suggested that the Zoning Code be amended to grant
approval authority for Conditional Use Permits for child
care facilities to the Planning Commission. This process
would require a public hearing, providing a greater
opportunity for community response.
The City of Irvine recently hired a child-care coordinator.
She is the first person to be hired for this position in
Orange County and one of the few nationwide. Her function
is to mobilize public/private resources to stimulate the
development of additional child care facilities in the
community. While the purpose of this position is not to
regulate child care facilities, it responds to the need for
innovative solutions that will provide affordable, quality
child care.
The City of Hermosa Beach may wish to develop a similar
postion for the purpose of monitoring and enhancing the
quality of child care facilites. Due to the small number of
child care facilites presently operating in Hermosa Beach,
it is not anticipated that a full-time position would be
cost-effective.
The position of child abuse coordinator has recently been
funded and authorized by the City of Hermosa Beach. The
responsibilities of the child abuse coordinator will include
the coordination of community resources, the distribution of
information, legislative monitoring, and the identification
of funding sources. Consideration should be given to
monitoring child care centers as a function of this
position.

HONORABLE MAYOR and MEMBERS of the Regular Meeting of
HERMOSA BEACH CITY COUNCIL December 13, 1984
MAXIMUM SIDEYARD SETBACKS FOR R-1, R-21 AND
R -2B DEVELOPMENTS
Recommendation
That the City Council review the attached PEIR and adopt
the attached resolution declaring that the project has no
significant adverse impacts and recommend that a negative
declaration be filed.
Staff recommends adopting the attached ordinance amending
Sections 401, 501, and 551 of the Zoning Code in order that
the maximum required sideyard setback may be set at five
feet for R-1, R-2, R -2B, and R-3 developments.
The Planning Commission also recommends that the afore-
mentioned sections of the Zoning Code be amended to reflect
a maximum required sideyard setback of five feet.
Background
At the regular meeting of September 11, 1984, the City
Council adopted a Resolution of Intention directing the
Planning Commission to consider setting a maximum required
sideyard setback for R-1 and R-2 developments.
The Planning Commission adopted Resolution P.C.84-27 on
October 2, 1984, recommending that the City Council adopt
the attached Ordinance amending Sections 401, 501, and 551
of the Zoning Code.
Analysis
The Zoning Code specifies that R-3 developments shall have
sideyard setbacks equal to 10% of the lot width, with the
provision that the sideyard shall not be less than three
feet and need not exceed five feet in width (Section 603).
P10
The Zoning Code, however, does not set a maximum required
setback for R-1, R-2, or R -2B zones. The standard of three
feet is specified as the minimum setback allowed.
Otherwise, ten percent of the lot width is the standard
for the required setback. While most lots will not be
unduly affected by this proposed ordinance, lots that are
over fifty feet wide or ones that have an unusual
configuration will be freed from being required to provide a
setback equal to ten percent of the lot width.
The restriction of 65% lot coverage is still applicable and,
hence, no increase in density will occur. A developer will
have a greater degree of flexibility in the design of a
structure in cases where the parcel has an unusual
configuration or where the lot is extremely wide. The
figure of five feet is equitable in that it is the maximum
required setback for R-3 developments. Setting the same
maximum for R-1, R-2, and R -2B developments establishes a
consistency within the Code.
Staff is recommending that the attached ordinance be adopted
amending Sections 401, 501, and 551 of the Zoning Code as
follows (the new language is underlined for clarity):
Section 401. Development Standards.
(c) Sideyards.
Every lot shall have a side yard on each side
of the lot equal to ten percent (10%) of the
width of the lot,}th-a-}}ate-�dth-ef

the recorded agreement of the owners of adjoin-
ing property and provided no violation of the
building code will result, one (1) sideyard may
be reduced to zero (0) feet where the remaining
sideyard is at least five (5) feet in width.

ZONE:
GENERAL PLAN:
I. Project Description.
HB 84 -
Side Yard Setbacks
City Wide
City of Hermosa Beach
R-1 and R-2 Zones
All Designations
The project consists of amending Sections 401, 501, and 551 of the Zoning Code as
they pertain to side yard setbacks for R-1, R-2, and R -2B developments. Currently,
the side yard setback required for such developments is delineated. This project is
proposing that a maximum required setback of 5 feet be set. R-3 developments
already have this provision included in the Zoning Code: R-1, R-2, and R -2B
developments have no such provision.
Ii. Environmental Setting.
This project will effect R-1, R-2, and R -2B zones in all General Plan designations
throughout the city.
III. Environmental Impact.
While this project would limit the setback required by the City to 5 feet, it does not
change the amount of lot coverage allowed. Hence, developments will still be limited
to 65% coverage of the lot: the amount of development will not be changed but the
configuration of the development on each lot may be varied.
One possible effect of this project is that developers of lots that exceed 50 feet in
width may choose to utilize the 5 feet setback rather than the 10% of lot width
setback. By doing so, the development may tend to look bigger because of the smaller
setback required. This, however, is an aesthetic pipact and would be minimal.
IV. Adverse Environmental _Effects Which Cannot Be Avoided If Project Is
Implemented. .
Implementing this project will not create unavoidable adverse environmental impacts.
V. Mitigation Measures.
No mitigation measures are proposed as no environmental impacts are anticipated.
VI. Alternatives to this Project.
A. The City may leave Sections 401, 501, and 551 of the Zoning Code as they now
exist. The requirement for side yard setbacks for R-1 and R-2 developments
would remain at 10% of the lot width (with a minimum of 3 feet). If a developer
wanted to provide less than a 10% -of -the -lot -width setback on an extremely wide
lot, the developer would have to petition the Planning Commission to not enforce
that setback requirement or request a variance. This would be done on a
case-by-case basis.
B. The maximum required setback may set at a different specific figure: i.e., 6 feet
This would seem to be arbitrary and the figure of 5 feet is consistent with the
maximum required for R-3 developments.
VII. Short Term Utilization vs. Long Term Goals.
This project will promote greater consistency within the Zoning Code for residential
developments.
VIII. Growth -Inducing Impact.
This project will not induce growth in the City.
