A Consideration and possible action to conduct a public hearing to consider an application from 16411 Bellflower, LLC to modify the Transit Oriented Mixed-Use Development Project located at 16411 Bellflower Boulevard as proposed by 16411 Bellflower, LLC; adopt Resolution No. 22-43; and waive further reading and introduce Ordinance No. 1418.
Resolution No. 22-43 — A Resolution approving TOD PR 5 22 13051 to allow a modification and reconfiguration of a previously approved commercial building for retail, restaurant, and entertainment uses within the Downtown Bellflower TOD Specific Plan, and approving an addendum to Mitigated Negative Declaration No. MND 20-01 for property located at 16411 Bellflower Boulevard; Applicant and Developer: 16411 Bellflower, LLC.
Ordinance No. 1418 — An Ordinance approving the first amendment to Development Agreement File No. 837.1, in a form approved by the City Attorney, by and between the City of Bellflower and 16411 Bellflower, LLC, to modify and reconfigure the mixed-use development project within the Downtown Bellflower TOD Specific Plan on property located at 16411 Bellflower Boulevard; Applicant and Developer: 16411 Bellflower, LLC.
CEQA: Pursuant to the authority and criteria of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), an environmental assessment was conducted for this project.
Mitigated Negative Declaration Case No. MND 20-01 was previously approved for the Mixed-Use Development and an addendum to the MND was prepared to further analyze the TOD Project Review modifications and other related discretionary applications. No new significant impacts would occur with the project modifications.
City Manager Stewart introduced the item and read by title Ordinance No. 1418.
For the record, Mayor Dunton 1) announced that he would recuse himself on this item due to a conflict of interest, as he owns a property within 500 feet of the subject area; and 2) left the dais and Council Chambers at 7:34 p.m.
Senior Planner Clarke 1) provided a PowerPoint presentation of the Staff Report; 2) announced for the record that the brewery and art gallery were stricken from the Development Agreement (DA) in agreement with the Applicant; and 3) along with City Manager Stewart, Director of Planning and Building Services Corpuz, and City Attorney Berger, responded to Council Members' questions.
For the record, Mayor Pro Tem Santa Ines 1) stated that he and Council Member Koops made up the Council subcommittee which reviewed and monitored the original project, noting that the initial proposal stood out from the others received, particularly due to the specialty theatre which would offer something different in the local area; 2) stated that he understood that the plans had gone awry when the Covid-19 pandemic hit; and 3) explained that the subcommittee and City staff had met with the developer six months ago to discuss possible changes to the building use in the event a theatre was no longer a viable option, but noted that the current proposal had not been reviewed by the subcommittee.

11 PUBLIC HEARINGS — Continued
A Consideration and possible action to conduct a public hearing to consider an application from 16411 Bellflower, LLC — Continued
At the request of Mayor Pro Tem Santa Ines, City Attorney Berger, confirmed that 1) direction was provided to the applicant and the development agreement language also reflects that the residential and commercial portions are to be separately certificated with regard to issuance of certificates of occupancy; 2) there was an expectation from the City Council that retail components were to be finished generally within the same scale as the residential portions, which was ensured with the parking licenses; and 3) if expectations are not met, it could delay the parking licenses and the issuance of certificates of occupancy, but the applicant has always understood that these were the expectations of the City Council.
Mayor Pro Tem Santa Ines stated that 1) there was more than a 50 percent reduction in the commercial portion dimensions from the original agreement; 2) if the applicant failed to secure an entertainment anchor, they would be potentially liable for up to $500,000 dollars in liquidated damages to the City; and 3) the theater was going to be a draw, regionally.
Council Member Sanchez 1) expressed the opinion that the extended fifteen-year incremental payment period for the $500,000 in liquidated damages was too long, especially considering the reduced square footage; 2) noted that he was not on the approving body (City Council) at the time of the initial approval, but rather on the Planning Commission; and 3) stated that it's more than revenue and more about what the theater accomplishes.
At the request of Council Member Sanchez, City Manager Stewart stated that 1) the liquidated damages of $19,000 for the first year would not be significant enough to be considered one of the top ten sales tax revenue producers for the City; and 2) if a 9,000-square-foot movie theater were to come in, it wouldn't be a high grossing sales tax generator, as movie theaters do not generate sales tax revenue, so it was not an economic decision.
At the request of Council Member Hamada, Director of Planning and Building Services Corpuz confirmed that 1) the original public open space consisted of 2,080 square-feet, which included a 680 square-foot plaza and a 1,400 square-foot colonnade, and is now proposed at 3,483 square-feet, not including the patio upstairs which would be an additional 1,378 square feet; and 2) the definition of the entertainment anchor was developed in conjunction with the applicant after discussing potential entertainment uses and those specifically listed are just examples.
For the record, City Manager Stewart stated that any use that is used in the space that goes in as an "alternative use"would need to be approved by the City Council, reiterating that the uses specifically listed are only examples.

Council Member Koops 1) stated that the originally proposed project had everyone excited, and though he understood the pandemic changed those plans, expressed the opinion that the proposed amended project looked like a library, and reiterated that the City Council subcommittee had not endorsed these changes; 2)expressed the opinion that the jewel of the City is the Mayne Events Center with a matching parking structure, noting that the proposed changes did not match or compliment those existing new structures on the Boulevard; 3) stated that he had suggested that if they couldn't get a theater there, that he would like to see a high quality restaurant, not unlike Rock `N' Brew, Cheesecake Factory, or a bonafide national chain; and 4) invited input from those in attendance.
At the request of Council Member Koops, Senior Planner Clarke confirmed that the changes being suggested were submitted by the applicant.
Following discussion, it was moved by Council Member Koops, seconded by Council Member Sanchez, and carried without objection, to open the public hearing.
Jason Tolleson, Applicant Representative, Serrano Development Group Inc., 1)Apologized for any confusion and the limited time the City Council had to review the matter; 2) confirmed that the understanding was that the commercial and residential projects would be finished concurrently; 3) explained that the loss of the main tenant (Laemmle Theater) precipitated the requested changes, noting that every arthouse theater is currently not in a position to begin new projects, as they are fighting for their businesses to survive and stay afloat financially; 4) stated that the most-recent design feedback from the City was the importance to maintain the corner plaza, so they increased that area substantially, noting that the 3,400 square-feet in the proposal doesn't include the outdoor covered trellises or patio, so it's actually more like 6,700 square-feet; 5) pointed out that missing from the rendering is a public art submittal that will come before the City Council at a later time; 6) stated that he wasn't aware of the resistance to this rendering and they are happy to revisit it, but are generally anxious to get started; 7) assured that this modified design can accommodate a theater if the market allows for that to happen in the future; 8) reiterated that the business use for the location will come back before the City Council at a later time, so the examples included can be eliminated and replaced with language such as, "an entertainment anchor as approved by the City Council;" 9) stated that, if desirable, the minimum square footage can be eliminated; 10) in response to Council Member Sanchez' comments relative to sales tax, explained that the financial part of this proposal is not meant to take the place of sales tax, but rather is in addition to any sales tax generated as additional consideration to the City for things changing; and 11) responded to Council Members' questions.

For the record, 1) written public comments were received prior to the start of the meeting, which were provided to the City Council and made available to the Public, from Lisa Marquise, resident, 9550 Oak Street, expressing her concerns about the safety of the setback of the residential building development and placement of the balconies which overhang the sidewalk; and 2) at the request of Mayor Pro Tem Santa Ines, Director Corpuz confirmed that Ms. Marquise's comments were shared with the Applicant.
Chrissy Padilla Birkey, resident, expressed the opinion that 1) she "did not hate" the design of the proposal and, in particular, liked the design of the second story with the open decks and patios above; and 2) she was curious to learn more about the proposed artwork.
Cheryl Williams, resident, expressed the opinion that the City needed something that brought life to the area and that the appearance of the buildings should be made to work together and look cohesive with the existing Mayne Events Center.
There being no one else in attendance wishing to present testimony, it was moved by Council Member Koops, seconded by Council Member Hamada, and carried without objection, to close the public hearing.
Following discussion, Mayor Pro Tem Santa Ines, suggested the previously established subcommittee meet with the Applicant and staff to consider the proposed changes to the project before bringing it back to the full Council for further consideration.
