He reiterated his demand that the meeting be in his office between the two of us. Due to the obvimas reason that anything said at such a meeting would be of no value without corroborating witnesses, X again refused such an arrangement. The Chief stesdfsetly refused to come over to City Hall, so no misting took place. In my opinion the Chief's actions nullified a lot of hard work that concerned citizens have volunteered in an honest effort to improve relations between different segments of our community: I feel it behooves - the City Council to ioo into the Chief's actions zuld try to explain them to the Coalition and public at the Jan. 5th meeting.

" 11 1 additional "in favor" with no written message 12 received by agenda deadline - noon -- Thursday, December 31, 1970 k avox TIME IS SHORT—PLEASE GIVE THIS MATTER YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION!/4/ Dear Hermosa Beach R-3 Property Owner: On December 7, 1970, the tlerrcera Bach Planning Commission recommended adoption of proposed changes in the City Zoning Ordinance. If adopted by the City Council they will create new more restrictive building requirements for all R-3 zoned lots in Hermosa, relative to: (1) front and rear yard setbacks, (2) minimum land area, (3) open space, and (4) number of parking spaces required per dwelling unit. Proposed changes would be over twice as restrictive as those requirements now in effect for R-3 buildings constructed before June, 1965, and would reduce allowable densities by an average of 20 % to 35% compared with those allowed if you were to. rebuild or improve your property on the basis of today's R-3 zoning ordinance. Also, new open space and rear yard requirements would considerably restrict the type of building and architectural flexibility allowable. The puking requirement would be increased from the 1 space per unit requirement for buildings constructed prior to June, 1965, and the '1 1/2 space per unit requirement presently in effect, to 2 spaces per dwelling unit. If the proposed ordinance changes are adopted by the City Council, as an owner of R--3 property in Hermosa you will be affected: (1) If you should desire to build on, demolish and rebuild, or make major improvements to your property; (2) If you desire to see the community continue its present trend toward upgrading and replacement of blighted older buildings; (3) If you should desire in the future .to sell and/or obtain a new mortgage loan on your property; (4) If you desire to protect the investment value off your property; (5) If you desire to avoid unnecessary property tax increases. Therefore, it is in your best interests as a property owner to carefully weigh the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed: ordinance changes, and to act accordingly. •ADVANTAGES 1. Solve Parkin Problems. Proposed changes are the Planning Commission's solution to alleviating the crowded parking situation presently existing in Hermosa, particularly on weekends during the summer monthe and other peak periods. 2. Will Be Social and Aersthetically2. ORI:; I.?Et` RA.BL . At their public hearings on the matter, Planning Commission member's e r e ntly cited this advantage in general terms. DISADVANTAGES (Taken from letters seat to Planning Commicaion & City Council by infuriated residents and from the ovem:=we1ming objections of the several hundred property owners attending the Planning Commission's public hearings) 1. iirTill 1a1ot Solve Parking Preablernaao These problems are cans ed by out -of -area visitors coming to use the beach. Ordinance will merely encourage more out -of -area visitors by freeing -up additional, spaces for non-resident use during peak periods. This will be at the expense of economic strangulation to individual lot owners. 2. Will Be Socially and. AestiFaetica,iiy U NDE,SIRAI L'E. (a) Proposed ordinance severely restricts amount of buildable land area—future construction is apt to be little boxes on individual lots surrounded by open space. parking, and setbacks. (b) Ordinance discourages rather than encourages 2'abuilding tZ replacement—the-result: result: increasing blight, more police problems, lower rents, snore undesirable elements, economic decay, and related social problems. ra 0 r• , 1 w 0 3. New Buildinl V'irteally Stop. Why tear down and rebuild when the proposed requirements for new buildings are over twice as restrictive as the original ordinance (to which 75 to 80% of' our R-3 buildings, are presently subject)? Rather than building in Hermosa's R-3 zone, builders will go elsewhere (like to Manhattan Beach which considered 211 parking in their "sand" area but decided against it --- due to the economic hardship and inappropriateness for high density areas near the beach). Note also: R-3 parking requirements in Redondo and Torrance are 1 1/2 to 4. Economic hardship/Reduced lot values. Reduced allowable density and increased building costs --buyers unwilling to pay as much for R-3 lots. Result: estimated devaluation of R-3 land values by average of 25%. ($40, 000 lot = $10, 000 loss; $25, 000 lot = $8, 300 loss) 5. Need for Tax Rate Hike. Reduced lot values and hault to new construction will result in erosion of assessed valuation tax base in R-3 zone. Tax rate hike inevitable. 6. Difficult to Get Loan on R-3 Prourtt'. Ordin< nae changes would render nearly all R-3 property substantially Hain-con.forrning.' should this occur, many lenders have indicated they will pull, out of Hermosa or decline to loan, more than 50e55% of value. 7. Other Disadvantages.. Ordinance poorly worded, difficult to interpret; likelihood of similar future ordinance change in R-2 zone should this one be adopted. WHAT DO YOU THINK? ? The Public Reari1--1Lanuar Proposed changes in the R-3 zoning ordinance have not yet gone into effect, but soon will if the City Council approves the Planning Commission's recommendations. The City Council hast' scheduled a public hearing on Tuesday, January 5, at el es r 7:30 p.m., in the Hermosa. Beach Council Charnbere (City Hall) to consider this eel matter. As our elected representatives, they will listen to what property owners have to say, and will act accordingly. Should attiendance at the hearing be minimal, they will also act accordingly! This Council meeting should be one of the most lively in years—assuming there are large numbers of R-3 property owners in attendance. Graphic displays of the ordin Ynce's effect and more detailed printed materials will be available at the hearing. We hope that you will plan to cancel 'whatever other plans you may have had for that evening --and come to the meeting! ...either to state •yea opinion or lend your physical support. 1. The 0 inion Card --Please Mail Today! Regardless of whether or not you will be able to attend the public hearing on January 5, it is extremely important that you take a minute or so now to fill out and mail the enclosed opinion card to the Hermosa Beach City Council. It is pre -addressed and pre -stamped for your convenience. CONCLUSION-- This is the last chance property owners will have to express their opinions regarding the proposed zoning changes. Therefore, you are URGED to mail the enclosed card TODAY and to ATTEND the public hearing if you possibly can!

Ce Swift 610 Bayview Svc a'µ;ems,,California. =:54 C 0 .P City Council Hermosa Beach Dear Sirs - Dec 11, '70 We wish to enter our protest of the proposed changes in R3 & R2 property usage. We own three duplexes & a vacant R-3 lot in Hermosa - taxes have gene up out of sight - and now you wish to limit the only way we or anyone else can make profitable use of our property. In as much. as you wish to decrease the value of our property it would only seem fair to arrange to have our taxes lowered proportionately. Lido Isle is a beautiful & expensive residential area in Newport Beach with lot sizes similar to ours. They do not have 20° setbacks. Sincerely, /s/ W. H. & Helen W. Jones It would seem fair to me that the property owners in the areas affected should have the right to vote on this. 637 -. 6th Street Manhattan Beach December 11, 1970 Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Counsel City of Hermon Beach Civic Center, City Hall Hermosa Beach, California Gentlemen: Four years ago Hermosa Bea.clawas derelict. Overrun by hippies, hell's angel's, dope & pornography. We wouldn't even let our son walk down 2nd street to the beach. You have done an outstanding job in clean- ing & rebuilding the city. A year ago my wife & 1 had finally scrimped and saved enough to invest in real estate. After an in. depth look at cornpar'ative propertyvalues growth, political environment and potential, we selected:Hermosa' over Manhattan, Redondo, and Hollywood Riviera as the place to invest. W then laid every-. thing we had on the line to buy a new six unit apartment house on Hermosa Avenue. Prior to close of escrow in February, 1970, we called the Hermosa Planning Commission and asked if there were any pending changes to the zoning code - the answer was no. Now we find that there ',masa, inLeleecl, a pending change that, if adopted, • will materially and adversiy effect our investment in your city. Specifically, the change will mean: • 1) Our. bright- shiny new SIX ttAitEi. will Toe. non...conforming. The means we can't follow a policy ofnip-grading and improving - we can only 'maintain. Anything else would require tearing down and rebuilding to code. This is a severe handicap considering the remaining economic life of the building. • Our insurance protection will be wiped out. If the building is • partially destroyed, the insurance company will pay for that portion of the loSa, but the net effect:of the 51% destruction cla.u.se will be the building will be, a total loss because we cannot • .rebuild under the new zoning code. . Why must we be forced to . accept additional risk simply because the city planning comthission has changed its mind. We have in good faith conformed to all the zoning requirements and T. believe it is up to the city to insure that . we are not penalized for this,' complianc6. .Very frankly, we can't - afford the risk. • • 3) Additionally, the exposiire, to t risks outlined in interim 2 above can have a significant & detrimental impact on the ability of future buyers to obtain financin.g all.because the city of Hermosa changed its mind.. 4) At a time when. most beach property is moving toward higher density this proposed move to lower density (and lower land value) would appear, at best, inconsistent. • As I understand it, the mais•A roaaan for the proposed zoning change is to solve the parking situation, Zig: I wonder if this proposed zoning code change will really produce that effect. With luck, ou,4 unite will be there for a long time. Additional development will undoubtedly be materially slowed.. The net effect will be a status quo with the situation, including parking, staying much as it is now,. There simply must be better alter- natives to chuaging the R.:, CI' ring laws that will provide additional parking now. If you do implement this proposed revision to zoning code in such way that my wife and I along with many other investors in Hermosa are. thereby forced to shoulder unacceptable additional risks simply because the city changed its mind, I sincerely believe that the city will have grievously broken faith with all.property owners and created a credibility gap that will seriously -impair future developement. There simply must be a way in which the city can upgrade the zoning ordnances without penalty to those who believe enough in a city„ and its government, to invest in it. Very truly yours, Sohn F. Hofer Residence: 717 North Paulina Avenue Redondo Beach, California Apartment: 620 Hermos Avenue Hermosa. Beach, California • • COPY City Council and Planning Commission City Hall Hermosa Beach, Calif. 90254 Gentlemen: This letter is for the consideration of both the Planning Commission and the City Council. I own a piece of property, 25 feet wide, located at 710 Bay View, also known as 711 Monterey. This property is zoned R-3 and has a single dwelling on approximately half the lot on the Bay View side. It is my understanding that, at the present time, it is possible to construct two more units on this piece of property, which is as it should be. Across the street, west, from 710 Bay View is a row of apartments, to the south of 710 Bay View is a large apartment house, "The Monterrey", and across the street, east from 711 Monterey, is also a row of apartment houses. Since higher taxes are being paid on this property, with single family usage, I am considering more construction, because of the financial hardship. Therefore, I strongly object to any modification or change in the R-3 criteria of the Hermosa Beach building code. Hermosa Beach is a nice community which will stagnate unless it is permitted to expand so that more people will bring added revenue to the stores and shops of the city.

He said that he predicated his feeling on a discussion he had had with lenders in the swings and loan ind astry in the area. trman Noble .ontin aed that people are desirous of eliminating the deter- ioreted image, but he felt that 2:1 parking at this time would create a situa- tion from which it would take a number of years for the ity to encourage people to build again.

He said if the land usage on a 3€i or 4C lot is cut to £/2 or 4(% the current nuin).,)er of units, it will lower the tw,„ base of the city, He said he had made a research and studied the effect of the tax appraisal based on market value, and if the city throacih a.Y.,oning ordinance devalues property, it will affect taxes in Hermosa Beach, in the opinion of the ta assessor. Comm. Foote explained that the city is now running into problems because it has to replace public utties that ilauC:?: aged; and because of rapid dcAel- °patent e that is coming to C. head right now. Ther:efore, one of the reasons the Commission has coin idemd this R-3 ordinance is an a nem pi; to lower the R..3 density in this area ini:Teasing the square footage to permit fewer units per lot. The density potential gar exceeds the Master Plan. City Planner Crawford added that the rv.-)sent proposal began two years ago when the Planning Commission initiated a change of cone in the South Trdmore area to medium density residential. However, the City Council felt that the current R.--3 standards were not adequate to warrant making • the change and instructed the Planning Commis on to rest.„ad the. R-3 rone He said that the Planning Commission is aware that the potential sales value of the lots in the city that are affected by. these changes will be temporarily lowered, b•It if the program results in improved buildings which can demz.nd a better, more stable type of tenant, then the .:alues will gop„ Mr:, P.

As far as we can see there are no advantages in these changes and a. great deal of harm can result. Most of the lots in Hermosa are small, 30 x 85 approximately, and therefore, it would be impossible to put 2 garages per unit in an R3 Zone. All the valuable Strand property would immediately depreciate in value because with the high cost of construction & the taxes very few people would be able to afford the luxury of placing one unit on an R3 lot. We have a lot 30 by 90 feet and we wanted to improve this property, but should your 2 garage parking per unit, 200of air space per unit and the new set back go through, we would be unable to do a thing. We won the beautification award last month and we were very proud that we were part of helping make Hermosa beautiful. Should your proposal pass, it takes all incentive out of older construction and we are sure that very few new constructions will take place. Therefore, we cannot see where a change such as the Commission has recommended, can help Hermosa.

OW: reasons are AS i0110CFP Such a move would result in the economic strangulation of • Hermosa Beach.• The cost of land and level of taxes on Hermosa Beach property, especiaily along The Strand, are becoming so high that multiple usage is the only economic possibility. Unless the planning and zoning commissions are realistic in establishing regulations no money for imprOvements and upgrading will be spent in Hermon Beach and property will Continue to decay. This situation has occurred in •many cities over the years yet in no case has the problem been alleviated by in,crea.sli parking restrictions. 2. The population density in Hermosa tic-Jach and on li•lerm.osa • Beach during the summer is presently limited by available parking and will •increase further only if parking facilities are Increased. It will not decrease significantly if paring restrictions are tightened since most existing R-3 structures will become nen-conforming and no new structures will be built under these conditions. Th mat ozfsfent 'ill he that the property owners will be put in a severe economic giquieeze g.14,..1 that the city can maintain its Street parking facilities to allow over -crowding by visitors many of whoa ar highly undesirable and producs increased expenses through dcotrzne,:ion of property rand , increased policing expens,es while pr,,viding n Cleamornic support to the commuAity, 21,11:availab1e parking would be far better utilized by respectable residents; of Hermosa Beads. -trlIt'gi are orvmd money and effort to improve the commonity. • cot...City(...louracil. of ' T-IorsitotvR Eisach • • .

Moreover, there are precise guide- lines spelled out in lection 611(b) which must be followed before the Administrator may act. lie is specifically required to con- sider all relevant data, including the results of any research, development, testing, and evaluation activities, and to consult with appropriate T''ederal, State, and interstate agencies. He must also consider whether any proposed regulatton or standard is con- sistent with the highest degree of safety, is economically reasonable and Is technolog- ically practicable. The Administrators order, based on these co eidera•tions, is then sub- ject to complete review by the Rational. Transportation Safety Beard. A party ag- grieved by the results or this edrnini:strative process then has access to the courts fuir a' judlciei review. len the light of the above, ft ii; clear that any action to require that the air- lines equip their aircraft with noise sup- pressors must come from the statutory basis of Federal responsibility, not only with respect to the precise substantive guidelines that the Administrator must follow in rule making, but also with re- spect to the carefully framed procedural. • safeguards that are intended by the Con- gress to protect the regulated person from precipitous and unsound action. Accordingly, control over the acous- tical modification of aircraft must be exercised by the Federal Aviation Ad- ministration, in consultation with the Secretary of Tr anspa;•rtaation, in order to insure that noise reduction 'retrofit regulations (1) consider and apply acous- tical knowledge gained from research and development performed by Govern- ment and private industry; (2) apply in a uniform, coordinated manner the input . of Federal, State, and interstate agasi `cies, as well as comments from the pub- lic generally; (3) insure that a single certification prom is applied that is consistent with the highest dei res of. safety in air corrinierce or air trarn:ale:rta- tion in the public interest; and (4) art's economically reasonable, technologically practicable, and appropriate for the irlir- ticular type of aircraft, aircraft engine, • or appliance to which they apply, II. The need for aircraft noise reduc- tion retrofit: two aspects. The noise (Mile crated by. the current fleet of aircraft requires corrective action by the "AA for two reasons: The first reason is the obvious public need for relief. It was the noise of the current fleet of aircraft that, in large part, led to the enactment of Public Law 90-411 and with respect to which the public need for protection is clearly the most urgent. The near-total noise satu- ration of hundreds of airport neighbor- hoods has been well documented and • 1'M;,. t .t.3,,,,, , .16981 (ontale no further elaboration other than Is' restate the PAtias commitment to vz- in every legal refaE.Jatoxy tcchxvin_uo at its disposal to reduce the noise impact as Ircraft through source noise reduction. The second reason for an aggressive vase. reduction retrofit program is that e i'sofse of the current fleet of aircraft to a deterrent to the development of new sports, the extension of existing. rune gays, and the continued full use of the t¢'kj ort system in the United States. The .iixport system is a vital national asset, its health directly affects the health erf the entire air transportation. system. , lenie FAA, therefor, regards an effect ne ;noise reduction feta .tit, p' illattlrf'.-nene ;gram as ire ng :aece.seepxotnnattnairsisal ifi��,sR�lic e.nd .ningorsal inters , rno$,, ply lisause of the r iii ' Fiiall being tp arr- F"' rt neig-fii-I L7; 1 l�F ll i "'Ifio f4ittional lianrjoireennenfogiliteney IMAU9S s:iso kimemengetiyhrethilti noise xe _tact atr.0Die,.O il, V-K9..-� k theeanrther._p cssslt „ c, ?.rr- t In summary. aircraft raise reduction. irearcilt cannot be viewed apart from the t envlrom mental and aeronautical. evonsibilit?ea of the M(!. .

The first step in hoetrolling the x otee of the current fleet of aircraft has al- reriely been taken and in no:; law. Tris ernicaves. the "acoustical change" require- raemt of Part S6 of the Iroderal aviation Regulations, 'which became a eotive on l)eteernber I., • 1960.

In short, the current "tacousticfnl eitaaage" requirements of mart Bis are vii;t;l eco later effective retrcilt'regn?atie-tig acid Will continue to be vigorously .ap- plied to the current flet -of aircraft. In addition, amendments to the current "rtanatusttcet °hint e" requirements are now being considered that would further 'defame and control the method of abets - lug that no noise increase at the noise eleitroce in fact results from aircraft growth or other modification. • `tile second step in. controlling the nee of the current fleet of aircraft In.. veata,es research and development to IFEDERAL CtECISt X change the elate of the art relative to the hard economic and technological. factors now limiting the noise reduction p;3ssibilitics. These factors are basic to the technology of the turbine engine it- self as a propu!cion unit, and to the physical limitations of materials. For example, the high energy low frequency noise or roar of turbine engines is so fundamental to turbojet engine opera- ' tion that it has been called the "jet floor." Substantial reduction of this noise source is not within the current state of the art; however, some reduction is deemed possible. In addition, the diffi- culty in reducing the noise of the "jet floor" is an obstacle to the achievement of overall noise reduction by attacking the other noise sources within a turbine engine installation, such as compressor whine. The reduction of the compressor whine would Ira of no public value if the eiin irre.tior2 of that noise source is not p°€sreesvable because of the. continuing "jet ftoctr" noise. Mali research has, therefore, been done to define and control all of the noise sources in a turbine engine installation. This hos included studies on potential nonce reduction from the JT3I) turbofan engine. This study, initiated by the Na- . tional Aeronautics and Space Admin- istration (HASA) in September 1966, in conjunction with Boeing and Douglas, finally concluded in .October 1969, that ,cubstential noise attenuation results on approach Were possible for Douglas DC -8 and Boeing 707 modifications. Attenua- tions in approach noise in the Order of 10.5 3r.'i"'Ndla and 15.5 EPlf'dB were at- tained in this study for the Douglas DC -8 and Boeing 707, respectively. While in- stalled hardware, flight information, and definition in the state of the art of en-. gine nacelle treatment modification was obtained for the JT3i1 engine, the pro- tirati'n'p primary value was the demon- stration that the basic concepts of sound absorption developed in .various labora- tories were, valid for aircraft in. flight. Thus, the hardware developed was de- signee mainly for acoustical properties • and With not intended to be flight weight nor 'airworthy from a certification or maintenance standpoint. This hardware was fabricated of relatively new mate - minis (filier'niet ,llurgy and polyimide glass reinforced plastics) for which there was very little fabrication and mechanical property experience for use as critical components in aircraft.' This program provided a valuable impetus to the de- velopment of round absorption treat - scent technology. Research done under tb t program and substantiated in ether 'laboratories indicated that some. fairly common Materials, for which structural end fabrication experience exist, •might provide significant • acoustical. improve- ment. However, this 'program did not develop a modification design or hard- . wane of certification quality or that could meet the requirements of economic rea- meblerieees or technological practicabit- , ity. Furthermore, this program did not include the development of acoustical modifications for the JT8-D engine which Is in wide use in the current fleet.- Thaefore, further research is planned toot. 5.5, 21 fi----WEDUESt at', RAMMER 'I, i t D 0,6 rffenef • a., s 13044.4k, Atoa, ' P L. t A..-411—if . .. .. — ..„ p . •/ iCeect„et_ c..a-pree • 11L/4, -..‹,-;'t/ • 6'1 644W if-N.4;p- / tet -'1, -Is...% • Open letter to H04,08,5M Beach City C usein 1021 Oh Place Herm* Beach9 Ca.

We believe that the practice of police spying upon and mainiteining secret files on persons involved in open and legal conduct is reprehensible not only as a chilling of free speech and association and an inhibition of freedom of expression, but is an infringement upon the privacy of the citizen to pursue his life and beliefs free of governmental interference or direction. Such intrusions into the personal end political lives of citizens of the US are those we expect of a totalitarian society. The spectre of repressive governmental programs instituted in the name of a purported public interest in maintaining order or Insuring governmental security can only bring to mind the similar justifications which allowed Nazi Gestapo and Soviet. NKVD agents to spred terror and fear among the people of those nations by making freedom of speech synonomous with a knock on the door in the dark hours of the night. As you may be aware, the ACLU has filed several suits around the nation, including Los Angeles, against the practices of police maintainence of political dossiers and other such activities which violate rights of speech, association, and privacy. We would appreciate your response as to these alleged practices of the Hermosa police, the extent of such files if they exist, the City's policy. with regard to such police activities, and the planned disposition and. future course of action with regard to such alleged files and intelligence work by the police or any other part of city government.

He reiterated his demand that th meeting be in his office between the two of us. Due to the obvious reason that anything said at such a meeting would be of no value without corroborating witn<,snsca, I again . refused such an rrangement. The Chief steadfastly refused to cam over to City Hall, so no meeting took place. In my opinion the Chief's actions nullified a lot of hard work that concerned citizens have volunteered in an honest effort to improve relations between different segments of our community: I fuel it behooves the City Council to' look into the Chief's actions and try to explain them to the Coalition and public at the Jan. 5th meeting.

My understanding of the status is that the County Counsel is preparing the documents, to be checked by the respective party.°s administrative and legal representatives, and, then submitted to the various governing bodies. (Actually, two documents are involved: (a) an amendment to the existing County -Redondo lease and (b) a ground lease between Her and Redondo, assignable by Redondo to the County. Since Harrison Daigh had asked that we forward our thoughts on items to be included in the lease, and also in order to get things moving, I drafted a ietzu rough proposal this week and sent it off. I should stress that it's very preliminary; even Bud Mirassou has not yet reviewed it. It°s only in- tended to get some ideas down, although I think it includes what we need. A copy is enclosed for your information. No action is needed, but you°d better comment to the City Attorney if it doesn't meet your desires. I also sent him a few suggested comments on the amendment of the exist- ing County -Redondo agreement. A copy is not included here, but is in my file and has been furnished the City Attorney. As a related matter, we (through Gary Taylor) are currently clearing the legal description with the County Engineer, and also processing a release from the State Fish and Game Commission to allow the site to abut the pier. These must all 'come together at the same time. I don't know who besides me is really checked out on these things, but BUrassou, Crawford, and Taylor between them can undoubtedly put it together. (Note: At the time of this writing, I see in the afternoon's Daily Breeze that Redondo has approved the plans. I assume you've read it.

(He has been going to school en his own time to learn these new skills). Although his class title (Parking Meter Specialist) does not reflect these newer, duties which are still a relatively minor portion of his activities, the salary does approximate similar positions in other cities. I suggest no change in pay at this time; however, a new job description and possibly a new class title would be in order. Others Two more positions were agreed upon to be studied but evaluations by the Department Heads have not been completed. These include Jean Lick in the Police Department and Marie Betcone in the Building Departments Reports on these positions will follow inthe near, future.
