PUBLIC HEARING
3. PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A RESOLUTION CERTIFYING AN EIR, INCLUDING THE RESPONSE TO COMMENTS; ADOPTING FINDINGS OF FACT AND A STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS; APPROVING THE MMRP;
APPROVING THE COMMUNITY CENTER PROJECT ON THE SITE OF THE FORMER HEALTH CLINIC ON SHORB STREET BETWEEN 6TH AND 7TH STREETS, LOCATED AT 612 WEST SHORB STREET ON A SITE OF 1.77 ACRES; AND APPROVING A
PARCEL MAP FOR THE PROJECT, INCLUDING A VACATION OF A PORTION OF SHORB STREET, LOCATED BETWEEN 6TH AND 7TH STREETS AND DIRECTING ISSUANCE OF A NOTICE INVITING BIDS – F2M22-65, N2M25-8, R2M25-4
This is the time and place set by Notice No. N2M25 -8 for the City Council to hold a public hearing to consider approval of the Alhambra Community Center Project at a 1.77- acre site located at 612 West Shorb Street, between 6 th and 7th streets. Approval of the Project includes approval of a parcel map, aggregating lots and vacating Shorb Street between 6th and 7th to facilitate the Project. The Council will consider certification of an EIR for the project, including the associated response to comments, mitigation monitoring and reporting program, findings and statement of overriding considerations.
The City of Alhambra is the owner of the Property located at 612 West Shorb Street, located between 6th and 7th streets. The Property is the site of a historic building that was formerly a health clinic, but which has been vacant for decades. In 2020 the City Council began imagining a use for the Property, and determined that construction of a community center on the site would provide a much -needed amenity for the local neighborhood, as well as the City of Alhambra at large. Unfortunately, the City did not have funding for such a project at that time. In April 2023, the City received a grant from the State for construction of a community center in the amount of 25 million dollars, thanks to the efforts and State Assemblymember Mike Fong. The City then retained an arch itect, project manager and environmental consultant to prepare designs for consideration by the City Council and Alhambra community. The Council held public meetings to consider design options on October 25, 2023 (on site), March 11, 2024 and June 18, 2024 . Approval of the project requires an environmental evaluation under the California Environmental Quality Act.
4 1-27-25
Options were included in the project studied in the event that additional funding became available during the processing of the project, ranging from 17,000 square feet, up to 25,000 square feet. Currently, the City projects the current available funding would be sufficient to construct the 17,000 square foot project, but the project will be designed to enable additions if funding becomes available in future years.
The City determined that it would prepare a full Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the project. Pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15082, the City circulated a Notice of Preparation (NOP) together with the Initial Study to St ate, regional, and local agencies, interested organizations, and members of the public for a 30-day period, commencing May 28, 2024, and ending June 27, 2024. Based on public input and the results of the Initial Study, the Draft EIR addresses environmental effects in the following areas: Biological Resources (special -status species and the movement of wildlife species), Cultural Resources (historic and archaeological resources), Geology and Soils (paleontological resources), Noise (all except airport land u se plan, private airstrip), and Tribal Cultural Resources. The Draft EIR determined that impacts to biological resources, archaeological resources, paleontological resources, noise and vibration, and tribal cultural resources would be less than significant with the incorporation of mitigation measures. Additionally, the current Property to be utilized for the Project is comprised of multiple parcels. The California Building Code prohibits construction of buildings across lot lines. Further, the Project also contemplates construction within the existing Shorb Street right -of-way, between 6th and 7th streets. The Subdivision Map Act allows these parcels to be joined into one lot to allow for construction of the project if the Council approves a parcel map for the site. Finally, the next step in the progress of the Project is to direct staff and the City’s consultants to prepare a Notice Inviting Bids for the 17,000 square foot Project. The proposed resolution directs staff to do so, and return to Council with a proposed award of contract for construction.
The Project is described at length in the Final EIR document (comprised of the Draft EIR, written comments, responses to comments, and minor revisions/clarifications to the Draft EIR and the MMRP), are available through the City of Alhambra’s website here:
https://www.cityofalhambra.org/743/Alhambra-Community-Center-Project.
Recommended Action: City Council conduct a public hearing and thereafter adopt Resolution No. R2M25-4 entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ALHAMBRA CERTIFYING AN EIR, INCLUDI NG THE RESPONSE TO COMMENTS;
ADOPTING FINDINGS OF FACT AND A STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS; APPROVING THE MMRP; APPROVING THE COMMUNITY CENTER
PROJECT ON THE SITE OF THE FORMER HEALTH CLINIC ON SHORB STREET BETWEEN 6TH AND 7TH STREETS, LOCATED AT 612 WEST SHORB STREET ON A SITE OF 1.77 ACRES; AND APPROVING A PARCEL MAP FOR THE PROJECT, INCLUDING A VACATION OF A PORTION OF SHORB STREET, LOCATED BETWEEN 6TH AND 7TH
STREETS AND DIRECTING ISSUANCE OF A NOTICE INVITING BIDS

BUILDINGS AND REVIEW DEVELOPMENT FOR E AST MAIN STREET (BUILDING HEIGHTS) – F2M24-33

Main Street with regard to building heights (Goal 3.9). Since both goals are inter -related, both items are being brought forward for discussion at the same time to further the Council’s Strategic Plan Goal 6.2 to promote Citywide mixed-use development with housing. Staff will present to the Council additional context as it relates to Incentives for Commercial Use on Ground Floor of Mixed-Use Buildings as well as tools the Council could consider in incentivizing mixed -use development including: Flexible Development Standards, Additiona l Density and Elimination of the Residential Planned Development Permit. Staff will also present a review of development for E. Main Street with respect to building heights. Should the City Council direct staff to make changes to existing development standards, staff will prepare the appropriate zone text amendments and have them reviewed by the Planning Commission for their input prior to returning to the Council for final approval.
Recommended Action: City Council receive and file the information report or provide direction to staff as appropriate.
