Executive Summary
Consumption-Based Emissions Inventory and Reduction Strategies5 Figure 3 Scope of Consumptive Based Inventory vs. 2019 Community Inventory Actions to Reduce Consumptive Based Emissions in Beverly Hills The results of the CBI were used to identify voluntary actions Beverly Hills households and businesses can take to reduce their consumptive emissions. Overarching themes to reduce consumption-based emissions include:
 Buying less: Reducing consumption of goods and services through lifestyle shifts away from consumerism to minimalism, embrace of reuse and repair, shifts from fast fashion to durable, high-quality goods, second-hand shopping, and borrowing/lending.  Electrification of home appliances at time of replacement/upgrade: Switching appliances that use gas or other fuels to electric appliances at the time of replacement or upgrade. Households that have opted out of 100% green power enrollment may want to re-enroll to maximize emissions reductions from electrification, as well as from renewable energy sources.  Maximizing use of existing spaces and buildings: Maximizing existing building space and limiting expansion to new building square footage, prioritizing energy efficiency.  Reducing single-occupancy car and airplane trips: Reducing single-occupancy vehicle and air travel through carpooling, public transit, active transportation, and telework.  Electrifying vehicles: Particularly at time of vehicle replacement. Shifts from single-occupancy vehicle travel to active transportation and public transit result in greater emissions reductions than electrifying vehicles alone.

6 Key Findings
Based on the results of the CBI, key findings include:
 Generally, the higher the income and the larger the household size, the greater the household emissions (e.g., more cars per household, more air travel, more material goods like clothing and furniture).
 Emissions from travel, building energy use and construction, and services, are the highest emission sectors. Accordingly, actions to reduce emissions across these sectors will be the most impactful in reducing household emissions.
 The City of Beverly Hills has higher household emissions than the Los Angeles County average.

Beverly Hills also has higher household emissions than many neighboring cities (including Woodland Hills, Culver City, Santa Monica, and West Hollywood), but comparatively lower household emissions compared to Bel Air, Pacific Palisades, Calabasas, Rancho Palos Verdes, and Malibu. Beverly Hills also has significantly lower emissions compared to other affluent communities of similar size, such as Bel Air.
 Within Beverly Hills, neighborhoods north of Santa Monica Boulevard generally have higher emissions than neighborhoods south of Santa Monica Boulevard.

Introduction
Consumption-Based Emissions Inventory and Reduction Strategies 7 1 Introduction
This document presents the data, methods, and results for the consumption-based greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory completed for the City of Beverly Hills (the City). Included in this report is an analysis of the methodologies, data sources, and findings of the City’s consumptive-based emissions (CBI) which was developed to support the creation of GHG related policies and recommended actions to be included in the City’s Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP).

Traditional community wide GHG emissions inventories such as the community and municipal emissions inventory developed for the City’s CAAP generally focus on emissions generated from sources located within a community’s geo-political boundary and for which the City has jurisdictional control. Consumption-based inventories, on the other hand, cover emissions associated with the broader lifecycle of the activities that take place within a community. This includes not just the energy consumed in homes, businesses, and vehicles, but also the emissions associated with goods and services regardless of whether emissions occur within a community’s geo-political boundary. For example: if a factory in Taiwan produces a computer purchased by a Beverly Hills household, then the emissions related to the manufacturing, raw ingredients, and transportation of the computer would be allocated to the household in Beverly Hills where it was ultimately purchased instead of the computer company in Taiwan.

Consumption-based inventories acknowledge that a community’s GHG emissions contributions are not restricted by jurisdictional boundaries and provide individuals within the community a better understanding of the full impact of their consumptive behaviors. This identification of areas for individual households and businesses to take climate action allows Beverly Hills residents and businesses to contribute to the City’s climate goals through voluntary behavior change. These individual actions can be supported by City climate policies and programs that can help set the stage in achieving these larger, voluntary behavior shifts.

Due to this expanded scope of GHG accounting, consumption-based inventories tend to be larger than community-wide inventories. In this way, though community-wide inventories help target emissions over which the community/local government has direct control, consumption-based inventories provide a more complete picture of emissions associated with community consumption of energy, goods, and services. However, as some consumption-based inventory emissions sources overlap with those included in community-wide inventories (e.g., electricity consumption, natural gas, transportation) the two inventories cannot be added together. Rather, the inventories provide two distinct frameworks by which to consider a community’s emissions contributions.

This report provides an analysis of the average households consumptive-based emissions at both the neighborhood scale (based on census block groups) and the community-wide scale which provides a single average for the entire City. A community-wide CBI is simply the sum of the carbon footprints for each household in the community. Beverly Hills’ CBI is based on the average household conditions in Beverly Hills which are then multiplied by the number of households.

Figure 4 below summarizes the total GHG emissions results of Beverly Hills’ CBI, which total 915,971 tons/year CO2e.2
Further information regarding CBI methodology is detailed in the sections below. 2 As detailed above, the City-wide results of this CBI are significantly higher than the 2019 Community-Wide Inventory conducted by Rincon to inform the City’s CAAP, which recorded a total of 418,271 MT CO2e (or 461,064 tons CO2e). This discrepancy will be further described in the sections below. Data in this pie chart is based on multiplying household level sectoral CBI footprints against the City of Beverly Hills - Climate Action & Adaptation Plan D Appendix

Figure4 Beverly Hills City-Wide Consumption Based Inventory- (tons CO2e/yr) A description of emissions by census block is shown in Figure5 in order to illustrate the wide variation in household GHG emissions across the City of Beverly Hills. 3 This figure demonstrates that
the highest emitting areas of the City occur above Santa Monica Boulevard, while the areas below Santa Monica Boulevard have a smaller household GHG footprint. Although individual household behaviors vary, higher emissions are primarily correlated with higher household income and larger household size, which drive increases in high-GHG-impact consumption areas such as air travel, more gas-powered car trips, consumption of household energy, meat, dairy, services, and clothing.

Accounting for the GHG emissions from consumptive behaviors is important as consumption-based inventories show that a large proportion of emissions generated by a communities’ actions occur outside of its borders. Recent scientific literature supports this conclusion: an estimated 30% of total U.S. GHG impact was estimated to stem from imported household purchases in 2004. 4 A study of
eight U.S. Cities in 2010 found that the import of food, water, energy, air travel, and building construction materials produced 47% more emissions than shown by the territorial GHG inventories performed by the same Cities.

10 Most relevant for the Beverly Hills community, the CBI allows the City to identify specific geographic areas where changes in consumption could result in the greatest reductions in consumption-based carbon emissions and incorporate specific geography and consumptive based approaches into updated CAAP measures and actions. However, the literature underpinning the CBI methodologies referenced here note that few policy mechanisms exist to address these emission sources.6 Accordingly, most of the GHG reduction actions outlined in this memorandum are suggestions for voluntary behavior changes at the household and employer level, rather than City policy mechanisms.

Actions to reduce emissions at the household and business level consistent with the results of the CBI will be described in CBI Emissions Reduction Actions.

Purpose of Consumption Inventory
Consumption of goods and services is the root cause of many environmental impacts as it influences economic development and drives commercial and industrial activities. Conducting a consumptionbased GHG emissions inventory serves to connect the community’s consumption with GHG emissions and provides an understanding of a community’s emissions contributions on a global scale. Furthermore, reporting emissions on a consumption basis can help identify additional opportunities for achieving GHG emissions reductions, particularly on an individual basis. Beverly Hills’ CBI was developed for the following purposes:
 Help the City engage households through outreach programs to reduce GHG emissions related to household consumption by shifting from more carbon-intensive to less carbon-intensive activities.
 Identify areas of highest consumption with greatest GHG reduction impact potential.  Enable the City to develop policies and actions which address systemic drivers of emissions, such as transportation infrastructure, the built environment, and the emissions embedded in food and consumer goods.
 Identify decarbonized systems that eliminate emissions without significant economic impacts. 6 Ibid. Jones et al. 2018

Methodology
Consumption-Based Emissions Inventory and Reduction Strategies 11 2 Methodology
The CBI for Beverly Hills was developed in alignment with accounting protocols provided by the International Council for Local Government Initiatives (ICLEI). Though ICLEI protocols are primarily designed for local-scale accounting of GHG emissions that contribute to climate change, ICLEI also provides guidance on consumption-based GHG emissions accounting which expands beyond the scope of local emissions. Appendix I of the U.S. Community Protocol for Accounting and Reporting Greenhouse Gas Emissions Version 1.2 (Community Protocol), known as Consumption-Based Emissions Activities and Sources (Consumption Protocol), serves to guide the measurement and reporting of GHG emissions resulting from a community’s consumption habits in a standardized way.

The Consumption Protocol recommends using the CoolClimate7 calculator created by University of California, Berkley for conducting a streamlined assessment of a community’s consumption GHG inventory. The CoolClimate Calculator provides an estimate of household carbon footprints for nearly every populated zip code, city, county, and state within the United States (U.S.) as well as more detailed data for the State of California, provided through the California Carbon Footprints Map (Map).8
The CBI analysis in this memorandum relies on two separate outputs provided from the suite of tools that are part of the CoolClimate calculator. The first, described below under “Census Block Group/Neighborhood Scale-Level Analysis” references the most geographically detailed data available, which uses 2010 census block and consumption data from the California Carbon Footprints Map. The second, described below under “City and County-Level Analysis” relies on 2007 zip-code level data. The zip code level data was used to help compare Beverly Hills’ emissions against Los Angeles County and neighboring cities. Both models rely on the same life-cycle emission model referenced in Jones et al. 2011 which calculate consumption emissions based on household size and income present within Beverly Hills. Life cycle accounting techniques use real consumption and emission data for products spanning food consumption to lifecycle car manufacture-use emissions to quantify emissions over the ‘lifecycle’ of the product, including manufacture, transportation, and consumption. This product level data is then connected to U.S. Census and Labor-based household size and income thresholds based by geography to model for consumption of products as a function of household size and income.9 Over 257 universities, ninety-two
governments, and 235 businesses have utilized the CoolClimate data referenced in this memorandum.

Data Considerations
CBI inventories take significant time and funding to build given the scale of their analysis, as described in the Executive Summary. These analyses require large data sets of economic input and output tables and inclusion of lifecycle analysis emissions factors. Due to these constraints, only a handful of cities have completed their own analysis. However, the CoolClimate Calculator has provided this tool for California cities at no cost, allowing access to important consumptive data that has been vetted through nearly a decade of academic research from the University of California, 7 University of California, Berkley. 2023.

12 Berkeley. Certain sectors may have changed since the original life cycle models were constructed.

There are three main changes as a result of legislative mandates that are not reflected in the data:
1) electricity sector emission factors are lower as the California grid has a higher proportion of renewable power; 2) cleaner electricity reduces emissions associated with residential buildings; and 3) cars are more fuel-efficient and there is a higher adoption rate of electric vehicles. This would likely result in a larger share of natural gas in the building sector, and lower rates of electricity emissions as a share of the total. Overall gas car emissions likely would have decreased as well, though remained a dominant contributor to total emissions from transportation infrastructure. The reductions in these areas most likely decreased the emissions associated with goods and services as well, since transportation and energy consumption affect at least parts of those sectors. While the exact amount of GHG emissions has likely shifted since 2010, the overall ratio of sectoral contributions to household emissions resulting from the CBI analysis is likely similar.

Neighborhood Scale-Level Analysis Based on Census Groups Rincon used GHG emissions data by census block group from CoolClimate’s California Carbon Footprints Map. The Map is the first study and most recent ICLEI-consistent study to estimate carbon footprints at such fine geospatial resolution (census block group). Census block groups refer to 2010 block groups, while activity data underlying the consumption-based inventory (e.g., air travel, vehicle miles traveled, fuel economy) reference a range of sources including local data from utilities like Southern California Edison. In instances where modeling had to be conducted due to a lack of local data, sources like the National Household Travel Survey and Consumer Expenditures Survey were used. The resulting model is a CBI for all California census block groups for 2010.

The CoolClimate Calculator listed Census block groups were then updated by the Rincon’s GIS team to include Census Block Groups that fall within the City of Beverly Hills’ 2024 city limits, as published by the California State Geoportal.10 The methodology underlying the specific census block analysis, which draws from the same model as the zip code analysis described below, is described in further detail in the peer reviewed paper “Carbon Footprint Planning: Quantifying Local and State Mitigation Opportunities for 700 California Cities”.
11 City and County Level Analysis Based on Zip-Codes
To compare the City of Beverly Hills’ carbon footprint against other Cities, and against Los Angeles County, the project team downloaded a zip-code based data set available through the CoolClimate Calculator based on the report titled “Spatial Distribution of U.S. Household Carbon Footprint Reveals Suburbanization Undermines Greenhouse Gas Benefits of Urban Population Density (2014)” for model year 2007.12
This data references U.S. zip code and population data from 2007, and thus outputs result for the model year of 2007. Although this data is for an older model year than the 2010 census-block group analysis described above, it is used here to compare against other geographic areas in Los Angeles County.

Methodology
Consumption-Based Emissions Inventory and Reduction Strategies 13 CoolClimate Calculator Data Sources
Underlying data for neighborhood and zip code scale models is described in Table 1 below. As noted by Jones et al, the two most influential variables from the Consumer Expenditures Survey are income and household size13. The table below shows the transportation sector as a representative example of the type of data pulled per sector as part of the CBI. To access all 72 data sources from data providers including the Energy Information Agency, United States Department of Agriculture, and Bureau of Transportation Statistics, please reference Jones et al. 2011 which is linked in footnote 15. Data used to inform the models specific to the City of Beverly Hills include household size, household income, and local utility data (natural gas and electricity). National-level datasets used to model other types of consumption (food, goods, services, travel), such as the travel sector example below, were scaled based on localized Beverly Hills income and household data.

The CoolClimate calculator quantifies emissions associated with 5 major sectors per household:

1. Travel: Emissions associated with the lifecycle of several modes of transportation including individual vehicles, vehicle maintenance, buses, rail, and airline transit.

2. Home: Emissions attributable to the construction of a household as well as the emissions resulting from annual electricity, natural gas, and water use.

3. Food: Emissions from the production, distribution, use, and disposal of food products are dependent on the daily serving size consumed per person. The CoolClimate calculator categorizes food emissions based on meat, dairy, fruits & vegetables, cereals, and “other” products.

4. Goods: Emissions associated with the use of various household items and is categorized based in clothing, furniture, and other goods such as entertainment, personal care, stationary and reading materials, auto parts, and medical supplies.

5. Services: Emissions attributed to a variety of services such as household maintenance and repair, healthcare, information and communication, vehicle service, organizations and charity, and more.

A summary of the emissions sectors and subsectors as reported by the CoolClimate calculator is provided in Table 2 below.

Consumption-Based Emissions Inventory and Reduction Strategies 15 3 Consumption Emissions Inventory
Rincon quantified the most localized/fine-scale data available for the City of Beverly Hills to understand household carbon footprint at the neighborhood-level. The results of this inventory in the context of neighboring Los Angeles County and cities is also discussed.

Census-block Group Emissions Data
This section describes the neighborhood scale CBI results for the City of Beverly Hills. As noted above under “Methodologies”; household size and income are the two most consequential outcomes for the area’s overall carbon footprint. Table 3 shows 2010 model year data for tons CO2e per year by sector, organized from greatest to least total contribution by census block. As shown by the figures below this table, the City of Beverly Hills features significant variation in consumptive emissions by geography, with the lowest emitting census block emitting 28 tons per year, and the highest emitting census block emitting 95 tons per year (more than 3 times the lowest). These wide ranges are likely driven by large variances in household income and size across the City.

These household averages for all census blocks are summarized below in annual household emissions across the City in Figure8. This illustrates that, when aggregated and averaged, travel, buildings, and services are the biggest contributors to household emissions in the City. This aligns with the results of the 2019 community inventory as well, where transportation and building energy (electricity and natural gas) were the largest emissions contributors.

Consumption Emissions Inventory
Consumption-Based Emissions Inventory and Reduction Strategies 21 Los Angeles County Comparison Zip-code data was also analyzed to compare the carbon footprint of the City of Beverly Hills against the greater Los Angeles County region, as the provided dataset offered options for regional, county, and State comparison of aggregated CBI results.
14 The City of Beverly Hills emissions by household are 12% higher than total Los Angeles County emissions by household (which includes the City of Beverly Hills). Beverly Hills household emissions are also higher in every sector with the exception of food as shown in Figure9.

Figure9 City of Beverly Hills Household Emissions vs. Los Angeles County Household Emissions
This comparative difference between the City of Beverly Hills andneighboring cities is shown in Figure 10.
14 The 2007 model year aggregated by Zip Code resulted in a household total of 47.77 tons CO 2e versus the 52.76 CO2
e identified in the
section above. This is likely due to differences in data aggregation at different geographic scales for different tools available via CoolClimate calculator, though both use the same underlying lifecycle model to predict household emissions.

24 4 CBI Emissions Reduction Actions
This section articulates what households and businesses in the City of Beverly Hills can do to reduce their carbon footprints. The actions described here depart from the measures and actions outlined in the Beverly Hills CAAP because they focus on what individuals can do through behavior change, instead of what the City can do through policy development or program creation. However, these CBI emissions reduction actions overlap with the measures and actions outlined in the Beverly Hills CAAP as some of the City-lead policies and programming could catalyze consumptive behavior change. For example, CAAP Strategy BE 2 Decarbonization in combination with BE 1.5 City funded incentives for energy efficiency and decarbonization could help in facilitating the behavior shifts needed at the household level needed to make the switch from gas to electric appliances.16 The emissions reductions actions proposed here are voluntary and require a change to the economic decisions being made by the community. The City can play an important role in facilitating these changes by providing accurate information, reducing costs through connection to incentives and resources, and adopting policies that shape the market landscape (e.g., all-electric new construction ordinance) to achieve these consumptive shifts at the City scale.

The actions described here are an opportunity for each member of the Beverly Hills community to voluntarily reduce their GHG emissions through behavior change. Many of the recommended actions described would lead to benefits to health (i.e. active transit, emphasizing a plant-based diet), and upgraded modern, but lower emission lifestyles, including making the switch from gas to modern electric appliances as well as electric vehicles. As described in the sections above, neighborhoods with the highest emissions, which are typically related to larger household size and higher income, have the biggest opportunity to take climate action and lower emissions across the City.

The project team also reviewed local climate action plans from the cities of Santa Monica, West Hollywood and Glendale, as well as the City of Los Angeles Green New Deal pLAn. Most of these plans did not have emissions actions tailored for households to voluntarily reduce consumptive emissions. Most measures and actions outlined in the reviewed plans were focused on the creation of City programs and policies to support emissions reduction shifts to low-carbon lifestyles. This document offers science-based recommendations tailored to the results of the CBI from Beverly Hills to guide residents in taking voluntary action to reduce their household emissions. These recommendations can be viewed as a complement to the City-level structural action taken on as part of the City of Beverly Hills CAAP, but not as a replacement for the emissions reductions as the City has no enforcement mechanism to measure or enforce the behavior changes suggested in consumptive based emissions.

Travel GHG Emission Reduction Actions
The sectoral breakdown for transportation GHG emission reduction actions is shown below in Figure 12. Consistent with the emissions-based inventory, gas from single occupancy car transportation is the largest contributor to consumptive based emissions in this sector (72%) of total, followed by air travel (18%).

CBI Emissions Reduction Actions
Consumption-Based Emissions Inventory and Reduction Strategies 25 Figure 12 Travel Subsector Contributions
Accordingly, most actions in this section focus on reducing emissions from single-occupancy internal combustion engines through mode shift, vehicle miles traveled (VMT) reduction, and vehicle electrification. Table 5 describes travel actions for households, while Table 6 describes travel actions for businesses.

Table 5 CBI Travel Emission Reduction Actions [Household/Individual] GHG Reduction Type Detailed Action Description
Subsector – Car Fuel – Gas
Reduce number of cars per
household with shift from
car trips to public transit
Use public transit options to commute instead of single occupancy vehicles. Rely on various modes for first/last mile connections (e.g., microtransit, active transportation).

Take advantage of incentives’ and then identify any existing incentive program applicable in the area (check out Metro or BH webpages).

Participate in carpooling Participate in company carpools or start carpool groups. Consider using apps like Waze to participate in carpooling. Consider using carpool options if using rideshare apps life Lyft, Uber.

Switch to electric vehicles Purchase or lease an electric vehicle when purchasing a new or used vehicle. Take advantage of federal tax credits for EV purchase and continue to monitor local utilities (SCE) for available rebates. Residents can also benefit from HOV lane access stickers available for EV owners in California.17 EV owners limit vehicle miles traveled by shifting away from single occupancy car trips whenever possible.

Mode shift to active
transportation
Shift from car trips to bikes, personal scooters, and walking, for shorter local trips. The Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition offers resources and maps to help residents plan safe biking routes that take advantage of established bikeways in Beverly Hills. 18Host
bike to school days for students during bike to work week. See the Walk, Bike, & Roll to School website to enroll your school in the program and for helpful resources.19 Use e-bikes for longer trips Consider using e-bikes, monitoring the availability of local incentives, to switch to active transportation modes for longer trips or to access origins/destinations in more challenging terrain.

Reduce car trips through
telecommuting
Take advantage of telecommuting offered by employers to reduce car trips.

Subsector - Air Travel
Reduce air travel through
train and bus trips
Shift from air travel to local train trips when possible. If travelling for business, contact management to budget in additional time for business trips to accommodate additional time for train travel. Note that private plane travel is the most carbon intensive form of travel for individuals of any kind.

26 Table 6 describes actions businesses can take to incentivize employee behavior shift from singleoccupancy gas vehicles to public transportation, carpooling, active transportation, and telework.

Large employers within the City which include Live Nation Entertainment, the Beverly Hills Unified School District, City of Beverly Hills, and MGM Studios would be well positioned to implement larger scale fleet management and install EV charging infrastructure. These actions would support household adoption of electric vehicles by easing implementation hurdles (e.g., lack of worktime access to charging infrastructure).
20 Service industry employers, such as the businesses along Rodeo Drive may be better poised to provide employee incentives for public transit and mode shifts to active transportation.

Table 6 CBI Travel Emission Reduction Actions [Businesses] GHG Reduction Type Detailed Action Description
Subsector - Car Fuel - Gas
Shift from car trips to public
transit and carpooling
Incentivize employees to shift to public transit & carpooling through tax-free or subsidized public transit cards, incentives to carpool, guaranteed rides home, and priority carpool parking.

Shift company vehicle fleets
to EVs
Transition company cars to EVs and install company-owned EV chargers to support the organizational and employee shift from gas to electric vehicles.

Install charging and
designate parking for
employees with EVs
Support employee EV commutes through designated EV parking spaces and charger installation. Southern California Edison’s charge Ready Program offers incentives for EV charging stations. Consider providing subsidized employee EV charging. Include supports like parking spaces, and dedicated plug-ins for mopeds and e-bikes that cannot use Level 2 chargers.
21Offer free/reduced charging for employees who drive EVs to work.

Shift from Car Trips to
Corporate Shuttles
For large employers (e.g., Live Nation Entertainment) consider a corporate shuttle program for employees.

Telecommuting – Vehicle
Miles Traveled Reduction
Establish telecommuting policy to reduce employee commutes to work, as possible.

Utilize Los Angeles County ’s telework program which provides guidelines and resources for employees and employers to facilitate telecommuting, including best practices and technology recommendations.

Subsector - Air Travel
Shift from Air Travel to
Virtual Meetings
For employers with conferences and frequent business travel, shift meetings from in-person to virtual, where possible.

Services GHG Emission Reduction Actions
The sub-sector breakdown for services GHG emission reduction actions is not shown below as there is only one category included under ‘Services’ which comprises the second largest contributor to CBI across the City of Beverly Hills (20%).

Services describe any trade of labor for pay, including landscaping services, banking, tutoring, etc. As described by Jones et al (2018), services were estimated using household income and size, the two variables which were most powerful in predicting household consumption behaviors and 20 https://www.zippia.com/company/best-biggest-companies-in-beverly-hills-ca/ 21 https://www.sce.com/evbusiness/chargeready City of Beverly Hills - Climate Action & Adaptation Plan D Appendix

Table 7 CBI Service Emission Reduction Actions [Household/Individual] GHG Reduction Type Detailed Action Description
Subsector - Services
Select local green businesses to
provide services
Use green business identification tools to select companies providing green services, such as greenbusinessca.org.. Consider making the switch to services that do not increase emissions, such as businesses that provide services related to climate action, like green building and construction, sustainable landscaping, etc.

Shift to green banking and investing Bank and invest with institutions which focus on ethical banking practices (e.g., Aspiration, Amalgamated Bank). Shift investments from fossil fuels to green investment options like green bonds, green Exchange-Traded Fund (EFTs), and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)-focused funds.

Table 8 actions imply large amounts of crossover between other sectoral business carbon footprint reduction actions, such as transitioning fleets to electric vehicles, encouraging reduced employee single-passenger car travel, and increasing building efficiency, and switching from natural gas appliances to all-electric.

For businesses providing services, improve sustainability and reduce carbon footprint of business operations using resources like https://ewddlacity.com/index.php/green-your-business.

Housing GHG Emission Reduction Actions
CBI emissions from housing are the third largest contributor to CBI across the City of Beverly Hills (17%). Consistent with the community GHG inventory described in the CAAP, natural gas emissions in households across the City account for the largest portion of sub-sector GHG emissions (37%), as shown below in Figure 13. Meanwhile, electricity emissions account for 39% of the total. Today, electricity emissions likely contribute much fewer GHG emissions because the City has upgraded its default participation tier in the Clean Power Alliance to the Green Level, which is 100% renewable.23 Accordingly, actions here focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions though reductions in natural gas consumption and construction emissions. Some of the actions described here will have subject matter overlap with the building electrification actions described in the CAAP. However, in the absence of policies to electrify existing buildings, the City will be reliant on incentive programs and outreach to increase household levels of voluntary switching to electric appliances. Voluntary approaches have been shown to fall short in achieving building decarbonization at the city-scale. A 2022 California Public Utilities Commission study surveying heat pump installation contractors 22 The Cool Calculator tool version asks only for an input of annual dollars spent per month on services. The CoolClimate calculator had no suggested measures on how to reduce emissions from the services sector. Accordingly, the project team pulled some best available resources for this sector. https://coolclimate.berkeley.edu/calculator 23 https://9021zeroemissions.rinconconsultants.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/20-09714_BH-CAAP_Public-Daft-030823-Digital.pdf City of Beverly Hills - Climate Action & Adaptation Plan D Appendix

City of Beverly Hills
28 identified local reach codes for building decarbonization (in new construction) as the primary driver in expanding heat pump water heater and heat pump heating, ventilation, and cooling (HVAC) adoption in new construction. This finding is significant, as during this period, there were also significant incentives available to subsidize heat pump adoption, but they were not named as the main driver for building decarbonization. There are no known purely voluntary case studies that have been effective in achieving building decarbonization at the city-scale.24 Figure 13 Housing Sub-Sector CBI Breakdown
Table 9 describes actions to reduce emissions by switching building end uses from natural gas to electricity through appliance swap-outs. The construction subsector is addressed in Table 10 as it is primarily the domain of businesses providing this service.

Table 9 CBI Housing Emission Reduction Actions [Household] GHG Reduction Type Detailed Action Description
Subsector - Natural Gas
Choose electric appliances when
replacing or upgrading gas
appliances
When gas appliances need to be replaced or are voluntarily upgraded, take advantage of subsidies and tax credits to replace failing gas appliances with new high-efficiency electric appliances. These incentives are available at the federal level, and Beverly Hills residents should continue to monitor the availability of incentives at the local level from SCE/The Clean Power Alliance.

The following appliance swap-outs are recommended:
 Gas water heaters heat pump hot water heater
 Air conditioner OR gas furnace  Heat pump HVAC. Heat pump HVAC provide both functions in one appliance
 Gas stove  Induction range
 Gas dryer  Heat pump or electric dryer
Make remodels and renovations
all-electric, or electric ready
If renovating or remodeling your home, ask your contractor to upgrade the wiring and electric infrastructure to support future appliance-level electrification and EV charging.

Subsector - Electricity
Opt-in to 100% renewable electricity
through the Clean Power Alliance
If you have opted out from the Clean Power Alliance’s Green level, opt back in to make the switch to 100% green electricity.

Pursue holistic energy efficiency
remodels and renovations
Prioritize energy efficiency through selection of efficient appliances, and upgrading home efficiency (e.g., windows, insulation) when retrofitting or remodeling homes. Consider wiring for automation, such as lighting that can automatically dim as natural light increases, or window treatments that automatically close during increased heat.

Consumption-Based Emissions Inventory and Reduction Strategies 29 GHG Reduction Type Detailed Action Description
Subsector - Construction
Consider opportunities to fully
utilize existing spaces instead of
expanding building footprints
Pursue minimalism and repurposing of existing spaces instead of square foot expansion requiring construction during remodels. If renovations or expansions are necessary, choose contracting companies that utilize emissions-free all electric technologies (see corresponding actions under [‘Business’] below.

Table 10 describes what Beverly Hills businesses can do to reduce emissions from the building sector. Many of these actions mirror the actions a household can take, but tailor actions to the specific natural gas end uses found in businesses.

Table 10 CBI Building Emission Reduction Actions [Business] GHG Reduction Type Detailed Action Description
Subsector - Natural Gas
Choose electric appliances when
replacing or upgrading gas appliances
Replace failing gas appliances with new high-efficiency electric appliances.

Continue to monitor the rebate landscape through SCE and SoCalREN for potential rebates for businesses to electrify:
 Gas water heaters heat pump hot water heater
 Air conditioner OR gas furnace  Heat pump HVAC. Heat pump HVAC provide both functions in one appliance
 Gas dryer  heat pump or electric dryer
Install high efficiency, dual-heating and
cooling function heat pump HVAC
instead of just air conditioning
When installing an air conditioner, choose a dual-heating and cooling HP HVAC. This allows for dual heating and cooling, displacing gas furnaces at the same time as air conditioners.

Make the switch to induction cooking For restaurants and industrial kitchens: swap out your industrial gas range to induction. Expand your positive impact by inviting other businesses in to demonstrate the success of your induction cooking model.

Subsector - Electricity
Opt-In to 100% Renewable Electricity
through the Clean Power Alliance
If you have opted out from SCE’s green prime service, opt back in to make the switch to 100% green electricity
Subsector - Construction
Consider making the switch to all-electric
construction machinery when the old
machinery fails
When gas-powered construction equipment fails, consider replacing it with all-electric construction equipment, as technology and rebates become available.

Goods GHG Emission Reduction Actions
The sub-sectoral breakdown for goods GHG emission reduction actions is shown below in Figure 14.

This sector is notable as these emissions are not included in the community GHG emission inventory which was used as the baseline inventory for the forecast and targets set forth in the CAAP. This means that these actions to reduce these emissions were not covered in a substantial way in the CAAP document. Sixty-three percent of the total subsector contribution is provided by ‘other’ goods, which include products like electronics (computers, televisions), and presumably others like cars, sporting gear, etc. The next two largest contributors to this sector is clothing (20%), and furniture (18%).

The actions suggested in Table 11 to reduce emissions center on buying less, prioritizing second hand or borrowing, and selecting green brands if consumption of new products is absolutely necessary.

Table 11 CBI Goods Emission Reduction Actions [Household] GHG Reduction Type Detailed Action Description
Subsector - Other
Consume less by embracing minimalism Reduce material goods footprint through reuse, repair, and minimalism.

Learn more about minimalism through local meetups and resources on minimalism offered throughout Los Angeles.

Shift from buying new material goods to
thrifting, lending, and borrowing
Instead of buying new products, consider borrowing or lending, for example, through The Beverly Hills Public Library, or Facebook Buy-Nothing Groups.

Participate in car-share instead of buying
another vehicle
Instead of purchasing another car or bike, consider participating in carshare or bike share through services like ZipCar and Get around, which both have sharing services at Metro parking lots25 or Wombi26 which provides a monthly e-bike subscription service.

Subsector - Clothing
Reduce clothing purchases through an
embrace of minimalism and timeless,
high-quality pieces
Learn about creation of a timeless minimalist wardrobe (“capsule wardrobe”), where a limited number of timeless items of clothing can be worn year after year through online resources like eco fashion bloggers.

This approach can reduce consumption by maximizing clothing that you already have, and prioritizing high-quality timeless items over fast-fashion trendy items.27
Embrace second hand shopping and
rentals
Shop at second-hand clothing stores like TheRealReal, Poshmark, REI Garage Sale, and Crossroads Trading Co. Use Facebook market place, and host clothing swaps to maximize clothing reuse.

For one-time events (e.g., weddings), consider utilizing rental services like Rent the Runway instead of purchasing clothing to be worn one time.

Repair and upcycle, find local businesses
that can maximize lifespans of clothing
through repair
Learn clothing repair through workshops, and through reuse and repair workshops (e.g., cobblers, tailors) to extend the lifespan of garments instead of buying new. Local examples include Repair Cafés across LA, which provide tools and assistance for clothing repairs and upcycling projects.

Find sustainable, carbon neutral brands if
new consumption is unavoidable
If new purchases are unavoidable, shop at carbon neutral or green brands such as The Reformation, Patagonia, which have creditable carbon neutral or B Corp certifications to back up their green claims.

Subsector - Furnishing
Purchase used furnishing through online
platforms or second hand stores
Use online platforms like Facebook marketplace or estate sales to purchase used furniture instead of buying new. Sell furnishings instead of sending them to landfill when ready to replace or upgrade.

Prioritize repair over replacement Seek out repair services instead of replacing furnishings.

Prioritize purchase of durable long-term
options
Instead of purchasing low-quality furnishings, select timeless, durable furnishing that can withstand the test of time. Gently used or second hand options via Facebook marketplace, or estate sales may also be available at prices competitive to lower-quality new furnishings.

Table 12 expands the scope of the household actions described above to fit to fit what businesses can do to support individual lifestyle shifts away from single-use high impact consumption.

Table 12 CBI Goods Emission Reduction Actions [Businesses] GHG Reduction Type Detailed Action Description
Subsector - Other
Offer rental options and reuse opportunities
(e.g., bulk sector BYO - container)
Offer opportunities for reuse and lending as a part of existing business services, (e.g., through cost incentives if customers bring their own mug or takeout container).

Consider providing repair and reuse services Like Patagonia’s repair services, consider pop ups, and integrated services for repair and reuse.28
Reduce packaging through behavior change
mechanisms
Use behavior shift mechanisms such as not providing single use bags at check out, and incentivizing BYO-bags to encourage customers not to use single-use bags or packaging. When single-use packaging is unavoidable, switch to compostable or durable recyclable options.

Subsector - Clothing
Retailers - establish worn/ware gently used
sections in stores
Similar to The Reformation, promote reuse through a dedicated section to gently worn/vintage options.

Establish textile recycling and procure
upcycled textiles
For businesses that procure and replace textiles (e.g., hotels), procure upcycled or recycled content textiles and establish partnerships with businesses that recycle textiles or accept used textile donations.

Subsector - Furnishing
Provide customers with repair and reuse
information, and consider integrating these
services in with existing business operations
For stores that provide furnishings, provide customers with resources for repair and reuse. Consider partnership with these businesses to provide this service to customers.

Food GHG Emission Reduction Actions
The sectoral breakdown for food GHG emission reduction actions is shown below in Figure 15. This sector is notable as these emissions were not initially included in the community GHG emission inventory which was used as the baseline inventory for the forecast and targets set forth in the 28 https://www.patagonia.com/start-repair/

City of Beverly Hills
32 CAAP, meaning that actions to reduce these emissions were not covered in a substantial way in the initial CAAP document.

Thirty two percent of the total contribution is provided by ‘other’ food, which likely describes processed, restaurant, or snack food (which is modeled as a proportion of income). The next largest contributors to this sector are meat (33%), dairy (12%), and then fruits and vegetables (13%).

Although the exact inputs of the tool for units CO
2e/calorie of each type of food group is not
available, the academic research around emissions contribution by food type is well established.

Meat, in particular, beef, are the most carbon intensive types of foods consumed, followed by cheese, pork, poultry, eggs, and milk. Legumes, fruits, and vegetables have minimal contributions to total dietary-related emissions. For example, legumes have 0.11 pounds of CO 2e associated per
serving, while beef has 6.61 pounds of pounds of CO
2e associated per serving.29
Figure 15 Food Sub-Sector CBI Breakdown
Actions to reduce emissions from food consumption focus on reductions to meat, dairy, and packaged food consumption, and shifting consumption to fruits and vegetables and cereals as described by Table 13.

Table 13 CBI Food Emission Reduction Actions [Household] GHG Reduction Type Detailed Action Description
Subsector(s) - Meat; Dairy; “Other”
Shift to a plant-based diet Reduce meat consumption and switch to a plant-based diet. Access more resources on best practices to switch to a plant-based diet using online resources and pop-up events throughout LA. Avoid ultra-processed foods30 (e.g., packaged cakes and cookies, chips, energy bars) when possible. Work with schools to implement periodic meatless cafeteria days for students.

Host plant-based events Increase the “ripple effect” of vegetarian events by hosting plant-based dinner parties, and catering plant-based food for events. This can expand the impact of personal diet shifts by normalizing them across communities and social circles.

Subsector - Fruits & Vegetables
Reduce food waste through meal
planning, fridge optimization, and
composting
Reduce food waste through meal prep and meal planning and divert unavoidable food waste away from landfill through organics diversion or home composting.

Use resources for upstream and downstream food waste reduction through the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC’s) Save the Food Initiative to learn more about household techniques to reduce food waste through meal planning and composting (https://savethefood.com/partner-kit/)
Table 14 describes how businesses can support these consumer shifts into the services they provide to support a household shift of these lifestyles.

Consider a “Plant-Based-by-Default”
procurement policy
For business that frequently host large catered meals for employees or patrons, consider a “Plant-Based-by-Default” procurement policy where food service providers must procure plant-based options by default, and only provide meat or dairy at request.31 A similar policy was passed in 2024 in West Hollywood.32
Provide plant-based meal options Local businesses should provide a wealth of plant-based meal options with accurate signage, pricing them to be cost competitive with meat and or dairy options. Programs like Meatless Monday provide resources and promotional materials to encourage plant-based eating.33 Promote plant-based catering Provide catering options that promote plant-based diets at cost competitive prices, feature them prominently in advertising.

Subsector - Fruits and Vegetables; Cereals
Reduce upstream food waste through
streamlined procurement and meal
planning
Procure only enough food as needed and provide donation services for events for leftover edible food.

Divert organics to their highest and best
use (prioritize donation and edible food
recovery over composting)
Donate edible food to entities like the foodbank, while reducing inedible food waste to be diverted to biogas digestion and compost. Contract with composting services to divert edible food waste from landfill. 31 https://plantbasedfoods.org/latest/plant-based-by-default-wins-in-la-county 32 https://vegconomist.com/society/west-hollywood-implements-plant-based-default-city-events/ 33 https://www.mondaycampaigns.org/meatless-monday City of Beverly Hills - Climate Action & Adaptation Plan D Appendix

34 5 Conclusion
This section outlines key takeaways from the CBI analysis by neighborhood, as well as strategies for reductions of greenhouse gasses across all sectors identified by the CBI.  There is considerable variation in consumption-based footprints between neighborhoods in the City of Beverly Hills. Some census blocks have over triple the emissions of households than other parts of the City. This is caused by large deviations in income and household size.

Generally, the higher the income, the larger the carbon footprint. This is driven by proportional increases in consumption in every sector, but particularly from air travel, car travel, and consumption of services.
 Opportunities to reduce carbon emissions will be most impactful for higher-income areas of the City, which have correspondingly higher emissions. The largest opportunity to reduce household emissions through behavior change are primarily located above Santa Monica Boulevard.

Higher-income households will also likely have more capacity and resources to shift their behaviors towards less carbon intensive consumption patterns than lower income households.  The biggest opportunities to reduce carbon footprint overlap with building and transit measures and actions in Beverly Hills’ existing CAAP. Building and vehicle electrification and reducing single-occupancy gas car trips are still the most consequential actions a household or business can take to reduce their carbon footprint. However previously unaccounted for sectors in goods, services, and food, offer additional opportunities to make meaningful changes to carbon emissions in Beverly Hills.
 Key new action items to reduce emissions based on the CBI include shifts to plant-based diets, and reductions in consumption of new clothing, furnishing, and services.  The City, businesses, and residents must work together to align economic choices with incentives, information, and systemic changes to catalyze the behavior and consumption changes at the core of this analysis. The City should view the results of this CBI, and suggested emissions reduction strategies as part of a larger ecosystem of change where City policies and programs will continue to play a crucial role in helping residents shift towards a less carbon intensive lifestyle.

Common Sense Exemption Report 1
CEQA Exemption Summary
This report provides analysis to support the determination by the City of Beverly Hills (the lead agency) that the proposed Beverly Hills Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (“CAAP” or “proposed plan”) is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15061(b)(3) (“general rule” or “common sense”) and of Title 14, Article 18, 15620 of the California Code of Regulations (statutory).

The following analysis shows that (where the CAAP falls within the sphere of the general rule or common sense rule, CEQA applies only to development that has the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment, and it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment), the CAAP is not subject to CEQA. Although the City concludes that the CAAP is exempt under the common sense exemption, not a categorical exemption, for information purposes the following evaluation also discusses whether the project meets any of the criteria for exceptions to categorical exemptions.

Project Background
The City has developed the CAAP in order to achieve several objectives, including reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, improving quality of life and public health, and enhancing community resilience and adaptation to the impacts of climate change. The CAAP establishes targets for reducing GHG emissions by 2030, 2040, and 2045. The CAAP also provides a foundation for future sustainable development efforts in Beverly Hills. It is anticipated that environmental documents for future development projects would identify and incorporate applicable GHG reduction strategies and actions from the CAAP.

The CAAP addresses communitywide GHG emissions and includes a discrete target for Beverly Hills to reach an annual level of total mass emissions of 271,439 MT of carbon dioxide equivalent by 2030. This corresponds to a 40 percent reduction in communitywide GHG emissions below 1990 levels, consistent with the California Senate Bill 32 goal for 2030 to reduce total GHG emissions 40 percent below 1990 levels. The CAAP also includes an interim target of reducing communitywide GHG emissions to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2040. Finally, the CAAP includes a target of achieving carbon neutrality by 2045, consistent with the Assembly Bill 1279 goal.

Based on the conducted GHG emissions forecasts, the CAAP includes strategies, measures, and actions to make progress towards achieving the Beverly Hills 2030, 2040, and 2045 targets. In addition, the CAAP includes strategies, measures, and actions for climate adaptation to increase the resilience of community members, critical facilities and services, and infrastructure from the impacts associated with current and anticipated climate change hazards. The CAAP strategies for GHG emissions reductions include seven broad categories: Clean Energy; Buildings: New Construction and Major Remodels; Buildings: Existing; Transportation and Land Use; Solid Waste, Water and Ecosystems; and Community Engagement. Across these GHG emissions strategies, 35 measures, each with implementation actions, are identified. The CAAP strategies for climate adaptation include six broad categories: Community Awareness; Emergency Response; Heat Mitigation and Increased Safety/Resilience; Wildfire Mitigation; Flood Mitigation; and City Capacity and Coordination. Across these climate adaptation strategies, 29 measures, each with implementation actions, are identified. A full description of the CAAP, including the list of measures and actions, is included under Initial Study, below.

2 Exemption Analysis
In order to determine if the CAAP is exempt, potential CEQA exemptions were reviewed that may apply. The following analysis reviews whether the CAAP can be considered exempt from CEQA.

Categorical Exemption
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15354, “Categorical Exemption” means an exemption from CEQA for a class of projects based on a finding by the Secretary for Resources that the class of projects does not have a significant effect on the environment.

CEQA Guidelines Sections 15300.2(a) through (f) list specific exceptions for which a Categorical Exemption may not be used. These exceptions are as follows:
a. Location. Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 are qualified by consideration of where a plan or project is to be located—a plan or project that would ordinarily be insignificant in its impact on the environment may in a particularly sensitive environment be significant. Therefore, these classes are considered to apply in all instances, except where the plan or project may impact an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern where designated, precisely mapped, and officially adopted pursuant to law by federal, state, or local agencies.

The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose projects or development. Future infrastructure and projects promoted by the CAAP would be subject to State and local regulations regarding environmental resources and project-specific development review to enforce compliance with development standards and conditions of approval, which may include environmental review. As such, the CAAP does not identify individual development sites and, therefore, would not impact an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern. The CAAP does not trigger this exception.
b. Cumulative Impact. All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time is significant.

The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills GHG emissions and increase climate resilience and does not in and of itself propose development. While other climate action plans are also occurring in the region, each climate action plan applies to a specific jurisdiction and does not overlap geographically. Because the CAAP does not involve or approve physical development, the proposed plan would not result in impacts that are cumulatively considerable. In addition, through the City’s development review process, future CAAP-related projects would be evaluated for potential cumulative impacts and for consistency with all applicable policies of the City’s General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and other federal, State, or local requirements that may apply to a future development or infrastructure project. Through this development review process, potential cumulative impacts to various natural and humanmade resources would be evaluated. Therefore, implementation of the CAAP would not contribute to significant cumulative impacts, and the proposed project does not trigger this exception.
c. Significant Effect. A categorical exemption shall not be used for an activity where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances.

Due to the absence of unusual circumstances related to the plan area, the CAAP would not have a reasonable possibility for a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances and this exception does not apply.

CEQA Exemption Summary
Common Sense Exemption Report 3
d. Scenic Highways. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a plan or project that may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a State scenic highway. This does not apply to improvements that are required as mitigation by an adopted negative declaration or certified EIR.

According to the California Department of Transportation,1there are no State-designated scenic highway sections within or near Beverly Hills. The nearest designated Scenic Highway is the Topanga Canyon State Scenic Highway, approximately 10 miles west of the plan area. The closest eligible scenic highway is State Route 187 in Santa Monica, located approximately 5.5 miles southwest of Beverly Hills, and is not visible from the city due to the distance and intervening development between the city and this roadway. The CAAP does not trigger this exception.
e. Hazardous Waste Sites. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a plan or project located on a site that is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.

The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose development. The proposed plan does not include specific infrastructure or development projects. Because specific projects are not proposed at this time, the City cannot assess the specific impacts of development or infrastructure on sites included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code. Future CAAP-related projects would be subject to State and local regulations regarding the treatment of hazardous materials and project-specific development review to enforce compliance with development standards and conditions of approval, which may include environmental review. The CAAP does not trigger this exception. f. Historical Resources. A categorical exemption shall not be used for a plan or project that may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.

The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills GHG emissions and increase climate resilience and does not in and of itself propose development. The proposed plan does not include specific infrastructure or development projects. Because specific projects are not proposed at this time, the City cannot assess the specific impacts of development or infrastructure on historical resources. Future CAAP-related projects would be subject to the State and local regulations regarding the treatment of historical resources, and project-specific development review to enforce compliance with development standards and conditions of approval, which may include environmental review. The CAAP does not trigger this exception.

Common Sense Exemption
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), also known as the “general rule” or “common sense” exemption, CEQA exempts activities that can be seen with certainty to have no possibility for causing a significant effect on the environment. CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) states that “A project is exempt from CEQA if…[t]he activity is covered by common sense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.

Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA.” 1 California Department of Transportation. 2025. California State Scenic Highway System Map. https://caltrans.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=465dfd3d807c46cc8e8057116f1aacaa (accessed March 2025).

Beverly Hills Climate Action and Adaptation Plan
4 Whether a particular activity qualifies for the common sense exemption is a question of fact that is supported by substantial evidence submitted in connection with the project (CREED-21 v. City of San Diego (2015) 234 Cal.App.4th 488, 510). The analysis must identify reasonably foreseeable physical changes and consider any environmental impacts that may result from those changes (Wal–Mart Stores, Inc. v. City of Turlock (2006) 138 Cal.App.4th 273, 291; Muzzy Ranch Co. v. Solano County Airport Land Use Com. (2007) 41 Cal.4th 372, 386).

The proposed plan involves adoption of a policy document to reduce GHG emissions, improve quality of life and public health, and enhance community resilience and adaptation to the impacts of climate change and does not in and of itself include any proposed projects or development. The CAAP does not propose or approve any physical development and will not result in changes to the physical environment, nor will it result in potential environmental impacts. Furthermore, to provide adequate factual support for the common sense exemption, an Initial Study has been completed analyzing each area of potential CEQA Guidelines Appendix G impact. The Initial Study determined that there would be no significant environmental impacts that would result from implementation of the CAAP. As such, as shown below under Initial Study, the proposed plan meets the criteria for the common sense exemption as identified above.

Determination
Based on this analysis, the proposed CAAP meets the criteria for a common sense exemption pursuant to Sections 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. Furthermore, exceptions to the applicability of a categorical exemption, as specified in section 15300.2(a) through (f) of the CEQA Guidelines, do not apply to the CAAP. Therefore, the City concludes that the CAAP is exempt from CEQA pursuant to the common sense exemption under CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).

4 The Metro Purple Line Extension subway project is also under construction and will provide two rail stations in Beverly Hills, at Wilshire Boulevard/La Cienega Boulevard (anticipated in 2025) and Wilshire Boulevard/Rodeo Drive (anticipated in 2026).5 The Purple Line Extension will connect to the nearest currently active Metro rail station, which is the Wilshire/Western Station located approximately five roadway miles east of Beverly Hills. Beverly Hills is also accessible via regional air travel by the Los Angeles International Airport located approximately 14 roadway miles to the south of Beverly Hills, Hollywood Burbank Airport located approximately 14 roadway miles to the north of Beverly Hills, and the Santa Monica Municipal Airport located approximately six roadway miles west of Beverly Hills.

Local Setting
Beverly Hills has a population of approximately 32,265 according to the California Department of Finance.6 Residential uses comprise the largest portion (approximately 92-percent) of existing land uses within Beverly Hills. The northern portion of Beverly Hills, areas north of Sunset Boulevard, consists primarily of lower-density residential estates, while the area between Sunset Boulevard and Santa Monica Boulevard is characterized by higher-density single-family residences. South of Santa Monica Boulevard, Beverly Hills contains a mix of commercial, retail, and office uses, as well as multi-family housing and smaller single-family residential lots. 7 Neighborhood and community parks
are interspersed throughout Beverly Hills, and open space is available immediately to the north of Beverly Hills within Franklin Canyon Park, which is part of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area.

Elevations in the central portion of Beverly Hills range from 120 to 350 feet above mean sea level, with generally flat topography south of Sunset Boulevard. North of Sunset Boulevard, elevations increase to between 400 to 1,400 feet above mean sea level in the hills at the base of the Santa Monica Mountains. Beverly Hills is characterized by a Mediterranean climate with dry summers and wet winters. The annual average temperature ranges from approximately 58 degrees Fahrenheit (°F) to 71°F, with temperatures occasionally exceeding 100°F in the summer months. Typically, the hottest and coldest months are in August and January, respectively. The rainy season occurs 3 Metro. 2022. Central LA/Westside Bus and Rail Service Regional Map.

4. General Plan Designation and Zoning
The CAAP would be implemented throughout Beverly Hills and would occur in all City General Plan designations and zoning designations. The CAAP would not alter any existing General Plan Land Use or Zoning designations.

5. Existing Sustainability Setting
Beverly Hills Sustainability and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Efforts The City has actively implemented a variety of environmental programs contributing to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions. The following is a listing of the City’s primary sustainable and climate protection plans and programs:
▪ Urban Forest Management Plan (2022)
▪ Complete Streets Plan (2021)
▪ Integrated Water Resources Master Plan (2020)
▪ Stormwater Compliance Master Plan (2019)
▪ Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO; 2009) ▪ Green Building Standards for the City of Beverly Hills (adopted in 2008 and last updated in 2024).

Regional Sustainability and GHG Emissions Reduction Efforts In coordination with Los Angeles County, the State of California, and the federal government, the City of Beverly Hills has committed to implementing regional and State policies related to GHG emissions reduction. The following provides a summary of the regional GHG emissions reduction efforts, which the Beverly Hills CAAP is intended to be consistent with or exceed.

Connect SoCal
The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) is the regional planning agency for Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Imperial Counties, and addresses regional issues relating to transportation, the economy, community development and the environment. In April 2024, SCAG’s Regional Council formally adopted Connect SoCal 2024. The 2024 Connect SoCal builds upon the progress made through implementation of the 2020 Connect SoCal and includes strategies to focus growth near destinations and mobility options, promote diverse housing choices, leverage technology innovations, and support implementation of sustainability policies. The 2024 Connect SoCal establishes a land use vision of center-focused placemaking, concentrating growth in and near Priority Growth Areas, transferring of development rights, urban greening, creating greenbelts and community separators, and implementing regional advance mitigation. The 2024 Connect SoCal also demonstrates the region’s ability to attain and exceed the GHG emission reduction targets set forth by CARB (e.g., reducing emissions by 40 percent below 1990 by 2030 and 8 Beverly Hills, City of. 2010.

In 2020, Metro adopted the 2020 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) to provide Los Angeles County (88 cities and unincorporated County) with a long-range, comprehensive for establishing the vision and priorities for transportation over a 30-year planning horizon. Transportation planning objectives and policies include improving mobility options through an equitable and sustainable approach and reducing Los Angeles County roadway congestion. The plan identifies priority projects across the county including rail and transit, highway improvements, and active transportation infrastructure. The plan identifies the Metro Purple Line Extension as a priority project within Beverly Hills.10
Clean Power Alliance Community Choice Aggregation Program The Clean Power Alliance (CPA) was established in 2017 as a California Joint Powers Authority and an administrator of a community choice aggregation program. CPA provides member cities with the option for 100 percent renewable energy-sourced electricity. Renewable energy is energy that comes from resources that are naturally replenished, create no carbon emissions, and include small hydroelectric, solar, wind, biomass, biowaste, and geothermal sources. The CPA now serves 35 communities within Los Angeles and Ventura Counties, including Beverly Hills, and is the fifth largest supplier of 100 percent renewable energy in the nation.11 State Sustainability and GHG Emissions Reduction Efforts As follows is a summary of the State GHG emissions reduction efforts, which the Beverly Hills CAAP is intended to be consistent with or exceed.

GHG Reduction Policies
CALIFORNIA ASSEMBLY BILL 32, CALIFORNIA GLOBAL WARMING POLLUTION SOLUTIONS ACT In 2006, the California legislature signed Assembly Bill (AB) 32 – the Global Warming Solutions Act – into law, requiring a reduction in Statewide GHG emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and California Air Resources Board (CARB) preparation of a Scoping Plan that outlines the main State strategies for reducing GHGs to meet the 2020 deadline. In addition, AB 32 required CARB to adopt regulations to require reporting and verification of Statewide GHG emissions. Based on this guidance, CARB approved a 1990 Statewide GHG level and 2020 limit of 427 MT of CO2e.

CALIFORNIA SENATE BILL 375, SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES AND CLIMATE PROTECTION ACT In 2008, Senate Bill (SB) 375 enhanced the State’s ability to reach AB 32 targets by CARB to develop regional GHG emissions reduction targets to be achieved from passenger vehicles for 2020 and 2035. In addition, SB 375 directs each of the State’s 18 major Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO) to prepare a sustainable community’s strategy (SCS) that contains a growth strategy to meet 9 SCAG. 2024.

such regional GHG emissions reduction targets for inclusion in the respective regional transportation plan (RTP).

On March 22, 2018, CARB adopted updated regional targets for reducing GHG emissions from 2005 levels by 2020 and 2035. The Southern California Association of Government (SCAG) was assigned targets of an eight percent reduction in per capita GHG emissions from passenger vehicles by 2020 and a 19 percent reduction in per capita GHG emissions from passenger vehicles by 2035.12 CALIFORNIA SENATE BILL 32, CALIFORNIA GLOBAL WARMING POLLUTION SOLUTIONS ACT UPDATE In 2016, SB 32 was passed, extending AB 32 by requiring further reduction in Statewide GHG emissions to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030 (the other provisions of AB 32 remain unchanged). On December 14, 2017, CARB adopted the 2017 Scoping Plan, which provided a framework for achieving the 2030 target. The 2017 Scoping Plan relied on the continuation and expansion of existing policies and regulations, such as the Cap-and-Trade Program, as well as implementation of other adopted regulations and policies, such as SB 350 and SB 1383.

ASSEMBLY BILL 1279
In September 2022, AB 1279 was approved, which established a legally binding requirement for California to achieve and maintain carbon neutrality no later than 2045. Assembly Bill 1279 also established the requirement to achieve a Statewide reduction in GHG emissions of 85 percent below 1990 levels by 2045. This indicates that the remaining 15 percent to achieve carbon neutrality can be achieved via carbon sequestration and other non-direct-GHG-emissions-reductions techniques.

CALIFORNIA CLIMATE CHANGE SCOPING PLAN UPDATE (2022)
In response to the passage of AB 1279 and the identification of the 2045 GHG reduction target, CARB adopted the Final 2022 Climate Change Scoping Plan in November 2022. The 2022 Update builds upon the framework established by the 2008 Climate Change Scoping Plan and previous updates while identifying new, technologically feasible, cost-effective, and equity-focused path to achieve California’s climate target. The 2022 Update includes policies to achieve a significant reduction in fossil fuel combustion, further reductions in short-lived climate pollutants, support for sustainable development, increased action in natural working lands to reduce emissions and sequester carbon, and the capture and storage of carbon. The 2022 Update assesses the progress California is making toward reducing its GHG emissions by at least 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030, as called for in SB 32 and laid out in the 2017 Scoping Plan, addresses recent legislation and direction from Governor Newsom, extends and expands upon these earlier plans, and implements a target of reducing anthropogenic emissions to 85 percent below 1990 levels by 2045, as well as taking an additional step of adding carbon neutrality as a science-based guide for California’s climate work.13

12 Energy- and Vehicle-Related Policies
ASSEMBLY BILL 1493, PAVLEY BILL VEHICLE EFFICIENCY STANDARDS In 2002, the California State Legislature enacted Assembly Bill 1493 (aka “the Pavley Bill”), which directs the CARB to adopt standards that will achieve "the maximum feasible and cost-effective reduction of GHG emissions from motor vehicles," taking into account environmental, social, technological, and economic factors. In September 2009, CARB adopted amendments to the “Pavley” regulations to reduce GHG emissions in new passenger vehicles from 2009 through 2016.

The Pavley Bill is considered to be the national model for vehicle emissions standards. In January of 2012, CARB approved a new emissions control program for vehicle model years 2017 through 2025.

The program combines the control of smog, soot, and GHGs and the requirement for greater numbers of zero emission vehicles into a single package of standards called Advanced Clean Cars.

CALIFORNIA ENERGY EFFICIENCY STRATEGIC PLAN OF 2008
In 2008, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) adopted California’s first Long Term Energy Efficiency Strategic Plan, presenting a single roadmap to achieve maximum energy savings across all major groups and sectors in California. The Strategic Plan was subsequently updated in January 2011 to include a lighting chapter. The Strategic Plan sets goals of all new residential construction and all new commercial construction in California to be zero net energy (ZNE) by 2020 and 2030, respectively. In 2018, the California Energy Commission voted to adopt a policy requiring all new homes in California to incorporate rooftop solar. This change went into effect in January 2020 with the adoption of the 2019 California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 24 Code and is a step towards the State achieving its goal of all residential new construction being ZNE by 2020.

Additionally, the Strategic Plan sets goals of 50 percent of existing commercial buildings to be retrofitted to ZNE by 2030, and all new State buildings and major renovations to be constructed to ZNE by 2025.

CALIFORNIA CODE OF REGULATIONS TITLE 24 (CALIFORNIA BUILDING CODE) Updated every three years through a rigorous stakeholder process, Title 24 of the CCR requires California homes and businesses to meet strong energy efficiency measures, thereby lowering their energy use. Title 24 contains numerous subparts, including Part 1 (Administrative Code), Part 2 (Building Code), Part 3 (Electrical Code), Part 4 (Mechanical Code), Part 5 (Plumbing Code), Part 6 (Energy Code), Part 8 (Historical Building Code), Part 9 (Fire Code), Part 10 (Existing Building Code), Part 11 (Green Building Standards Code), Part 12 (Referenced Standards Code). The California Building Code (CBC) is applicable to all development in California. (Health and Safety Code §§ 17950 and 18938(b).)
The regulations receive input from members of industry, as well as the public, with the goal of "[r]educing of wasteful, uneconomic, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy." (Pub. Res.

Code § 25402.) These regulations are carefully scrutinized and analyzed for technological and economic feasibility (Pub. Res. Code § 25402(d)) and cost effectiveness (Pub. Res. Code § 25402(b)(2) and (b)(3)). The 2022 Title 24 standards went into effect on January 1, 2023.

Part 6 – Building Energy Efficiency Standards
CCR Title 24 Part 6 is the Building Energy Efficiency Standards. This code, originally enacted in 1978, establishes energy-efficiency standards for residential and non-residential buildings in order to reduce California’s energy demand. The Building Energy Efficiency Standards is updated periodically Initial Study

to incorporate and consider new energy-efficiency technologies and methodologies as they become available. New construction and major renovations must demonstrate their compliance with the current Building Energy Efficiency Standards through submission and approval of a Title 24 Compliance Report to the local building permit review authority and the California Energy Commission.

Part 11 – California Green Building Standards
The California Green Building Standards Code, referred to as CALGreen, was added to Title 24 as Part 11, first in 2009 as a voluntary code, which then became mandatory effective on January 1, 2011 (as part of the 2010 California Building Standards Code). The 2022 CALGreen includes mandatory minimum environmental performance standards for all ground-up new construction of residential and non-residential structures. It also includes voluntary tiers with stricter environmental performance standards for these same categories of residential and non-residential buildings. Local jurisdictions must enforce the minimum mandatory CALGreen standards and may adopt additional amendments for stricter requirements.

The mandatory standards applicable to air quality require:

SENATE BILL 1275, CHARGE AHEAD INITIATIVE
In 2014, SB 1275 established a State goal of one million zero-emissions and near-zero-emissions vehicles in service by 2020 and directed CARB to develop a long-term funding plan to meet this goal.

SB 1275 also established the Charge Ahead California Initiative requiring planning and reporting on vehicle incentive programs and increasing access to and benefits from zero-emissions vehicles for disadvantaged, low- and moderate-income communities and consumers.

SENATE BILL 350, CLEAN ENERGY AND POLLUTION REDUCTION ACT OF 2015 In 2015, SB 350 established new clean energy, clean air, and GHG reduction goals for 2030 and beyond. SB 350 codified Governor Brown’s aggressive clean energy goals and established the State 2030 GHG reduction target of 40 percent below 1990 levels. To achieve this goal, SB 350 increases California’s renewable electricity procurement goal from 33 percent by 2020 (legislation originally enacted in 2002) to 50 percent by 2030. Renewable resources include wind, solar, geothermal, wave, and small hydroelectric power. In addition, SB 350 requires the State to double State-wide energy efficiency savings in electricity and natural gas end uses by 2030 from a base year of 2015.

SENATE BILL 1020, CLEAN ENERGY, JOBS, AND AFFORDABILITY ACT OF 2022 Established in 2002 under SB 1078, and accelerated by SB 107 (2006), SB X 1-2 (2011), SB 100 (2018), and SB 1020, California’s Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) obligates investor-owned utilities, energy service providers, and community choice aggregators to transition the electricity supply to renewable resources. The RPS requires energy service providers to supply renewable energy as follows: 90 percent of retail sale electricity and 100 percent of electricity procured to serve State agencies by 2035, 95 percent by 2040, and 100 percent by 2045. The CPUC and the CEC are jointly responsible for implementing the program.

Other GHG Emissions-Related Policies
ASSEMBLY BILL 197, STATE AIR RESOURCES BOARD GHGS REGULATIONS In 2016, the California legislature approved AB 197, a bill linked to SB 32, which increases legislature oversight over CARB and directs CARB to prioritize disadvantaged communities in its climate change regulations, and to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of measures it considers. AB 197 requires CARB to protect the State’s most impacted and disadvantaged communities [and] consider the social costs of the emissions of GHGs when developing climate change programs. The bill also adds two new legislatively appointed non-voting members to CARB, increasing the Legislature’s role in CARB’s decisions.

SENATE BILL 97, CEQA GUIDELINES FOR ADDRESSING GHG EMISSIONS CEQA requires public agencies to review the environmental impacts of proposed projects, including General Plans, Specific Plans, and specific kinds of development projects. In February 2010, the California Office of Administrative Law approved the recommended amendments to the State CEQA Guidelines for addressing GHG emissions. The amendments were developed to provide guidance to public agencies regarding the analysis, mitigation, and effects of GHG emissions in draft CEQA documents.

City of Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills Climate Action and Adaptation Plan
16 6. Plan Description
The Beverly Hills CAAP implements and incorporates the climate protection programs noted above and establishes new actions that would continue to reduce GHG emissions and increase resilience to current and anticipated climate change impacts. Upon its adoption, the CAAP would reflect Beverly Hills’ ongoing and active engagement through the 2045 planning horizon in addressing climate change, sustainability, climate adaptation, and reductions in GHG emissions.

The City has developed the CAAP in order to achieve several objectives, including reducing GHG emissions, improving quality of life and public health, and enhancing community resilience and adaptation to the impacts of climate change. The CAAP establishes targets for reducing GHG emissions by 2030, 2040, and 2045. The CAAP also provides a foundation for future sustainable development efforts in Beverly Hills. It is anticipated that environmental documents for future development projects would identify and incorporate applicable GHG reduction strategies and actions from the CAAP.

The CAAP addresses communitywide GHG emissions and includes a discrete target for Beverly Hills to reach an annual level of total mass emissions of 271,439 MT of CO2e by 2030. This corresponds to a 40 percent reduction in communitywide GHG emissions below 1990 levels, consistent with the California SB 32 goal for 2030 to reduce total GHG emissions 40 percent below 1990 levels. The CAAP also includes an interim target of reducing communitywide GHG emissions to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2040. Finally, the CAAP includes a target of achieving carbon neutrality by 2045, consistent with the AB 1279 goal. The Beverly Hills GHG emissions reduction targets are based upon community-level inventories developed for 2015 and 2019. The 2015 GHG emissions inventory provides an important foundation for the CAAP, providing the basis for an emissions back-cast to 1990 to serve as the reference year from which Beverly Hills’ target of reducing total emissions to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030 has been developed.17 The 2019 GHG emissions inventory of Beverly Hills community GHG emissions by sector (see Table 1) provides the basis for the GHG emissions forecast, against which progress toward Beverly Hills’ 2030, 2040, and 2045 targets can be measured.

GHGs in the 2015 and 2019 inventories were emitted from the energy, transportation, solid waste, and water/wastewater sectors. The energy sector represents emissions that result from electricity and natural gas used in residential and non-residential buildings including both private and public sector buildings and facilities. The transportation sector includes emissions from on-road passenger and commercial vehicles within Beverly Hills, as well as off-road vehicles and equipment. The solid waste sector includes emissions that occur due to waste disposal and the operation of landfills. The water/wastewater sector includes emissions that occur as a result of water use and conveyance, wastewater collection and conveyance, and wastewater treatment. 17 Beverly Hills, City of. 2021.

As shown in Table 1, in total, 417,839 MT of CO2e were emitted in Beverly Hills in 2019. The largest sectors of GHG emissions in 2019 were related to transportation (specifically on-road passenger vehicles) and energy (specifically natural gas use and non-residential electricity consumption).

The CAAP includes a business-as-usual (BAU) forecast scenario and a legislative-adjusted BAU forecast scenario of GHG emissions, based on the 2019 GHG emissions inventory, to estimate the emissions reductions needed to meet the Beverly Hills’ reduction targets. The BAU forecast scenario shows what Beverly Hills’s emissions would look like if population and job growth were the only drivers of GHG-generating activities, and Beverly Hills took no additional actions to curb GHG emissions. The legislative-adjusted forecast scenario models GHG emissions if Beverly Hills takes no additional action except for those required under State climate legislation (e.g., improved building electricity efficiency, improved on-road vehicle fuel efficiencies, and procurement of 100 percent renewable-sourced electricity by 2045).

Based on the GHG emissions forecasts, the CAAP includes strategies, measures, and actions to make progress towards achieving Beverly Hills’ 2030, 2040, and 2045 targets. In addition, the CAAP includes strategies, measures, and actions for climate adaptation to increase the resilience of community members, critical facilities and services, and infrastructure from the impacts associated City of Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills Climate Action and Adaptation Plan
18 with current and anticipated climate change hazards. The CAAP strategies for GHG emissions reductions include seven broad categories: Clean Energy (CE); Buildings: New Construction and Major Remodels (BNC); Buildings: Existing (BE); Transportation and Land Use (TL); Solid Waste (SW); Water and Ecosystems (WE); and Community Engagement (COM). Across these GHG emissions strategies, 35 measures, each with implementation actions, are identified. The CAAP strategies for climate adaptation include six broad categories: Community Awareness (CA), Emergency Response (ER), Heat Mitigation and Increased Safety/Resilience (HM), Wildfire Mitigation (WM), Flood Mitigation (FM), and City Capacity and Coordination (CC). Across these climate adaptation strategies, 29 measures, each with implementation actions, are identified.

The CAAP recommends increasing solar programs and projects as well as participation in the CPA to increase renewable energy production and use. It also seeks to increase building energy efficiency, encourage EV adoption, and prioritize development patterns that emphasize complete streets to allow people to go about their business on foot, by bicycle, or via public transportation. It also offers ways to reduce water use and divert organic and inorganic waste that would otherwise go to landfills. In addition, the CAAP includes measures and actions to increase urban trees for carbon sequestration, improve climate adaptation and resilience, and to provide community education and outreach regarding local sustainability efforts.

Table 3 shows the 2030 GHG emissions and target for Beverly Hills, including the expected emissions once the CAAP strategies, measures, and actions listed in Table 2 are implemented.

As illustrated in Error! Not a valid bookmark self-reference., implementing the CAAP measures and actions would reduce GHG emissions towards Beverly Hill’s 2030 target but not achieve it. Implementing the CAAP measures and actions will also make progress towards the long-term 2040 target and 2045 target of carbon neutrality. Combined, the CAAP strategies would achieve a 38 percent total mass emissions reduction compared to 1990 levels in 2030 and a 60 percent reduction in 2045. Additional climate action would be needed to eventually achieve the 2030 target, 2040 target, and 2045 target of carbon neutrality.

7. Cumulative Scenario
For purposes of CEQA cumulative impacts analysis of the CAAP, the cumulative scenario is the projected population, employment, and housing for the city in 2030, and the anticipated cumulative development to accommodate that growth. Based on the SCAG Connect SoCal 2020 demographic forecasts, Beverly Hills is anticipated to have approximately 35,225 residents, 77,596 jobs, and 15,296 households in the year 2030.
18 This represents an increase of approximately 423 residents, 1,910 jobs, and 317 housing units compared to SCAG estimates for 2020. However, there is the potential for additional residential development beyond the Connect SoCal 2020 projections based on the 2021 Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation for Beverly Hills, which identified a need for 3,104 additional residential units within the city by 2030. 19 Conservatively
assuming that the City meets its housing allocation, the cumulative scenario considers an increase of approximately 7,202 residents20, 1,910 jobs, and 3,104 housing units compared to SCAG 2020-2045 RTP/SCS estimates for 2020.

Environmental Setting
Scenic views generally refer to visual access to, or the visibility of, a particular natural or man-made visual resource from a given vantage point or corridor. Focal views focus on a particular object, scene, setting, or feature of visual interest. Panoramic views, or vistas, provide visual access to a large geographic area, for which the field of view can be wide and extend into the distance.

Panoramic views are usually associated with vantage points looking out over urban or natural areas that provide a geographic orientation and view not commonly available. Examples of panoramic views might include an urban skyline, a valley, a mountain range, the ocean, or other water bodies.

According to the Beverly Hills General Plan Update Technical Background Report, primary scenic views in the city consist of the foothills and mountains of the Santa Monica Mountains to the north. 21 21 City of Beverly Hills. 2010. General Plan Update Technical Background Report. Chapter 5: Environmental Resources. Available:

36 Impact Analysis
a. Would the project have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? An adverse effect would occur if a proposed plan would block or otherwise damage a scenic vista upon implementation. Generally, the development and landscaped vegetation throughout Beverly Hills block surrounding views.

The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan is a policy update that does involve or approve physical development, it would not result in impacts to scenic vistas. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would be required to adhere to applicable City development zoning, regulations, and guidelines, including Beverly Hills Municipal Code (BHMC) Article 30, Architectural Commission, Architectural Review, and Procedure, which establishes the City’s architectural review process and requirements.22 In addition, future CAAP projects and actions would be reviewed for consistency with City goals and policies of the Beverly Hills General Plan, including Land Use Element Policies LU 1.1 and 2.1, which establish the City’s intent to maintain the existing scale, character, built form, and aesthetic qualities of Beverly Hills. Compliance with the BHMC and Beverly Hills General Plan would require that potential future infrastructure development and redevelopment related to the CAAP would be integrated with the existing character of the Beverly Hills community, minimizing potential impacts to scenic vistas. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to scenic vistas.

NO IMPACT
b. Would the project substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? There are no state-designated or eligible scenic highways within or nearby Beverly Hills. The closest eligible scenic highway is State Route 187 in Santa Monica, located approximately 5.5 miles southwest of Beverly Hills, and is not visible from the city due to the distance and intervening development between the city and this roadway.
23 Thus, the CAAP would result in no impact related
to scenic highways.

NO IMPACT
c. Would the project, in nonurbanized areas, substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of public views of the site and its surroundings? (Public views are those that are experienced from publicly accessible vantage point). If the project is in an urbanized area, would the project conflict with applicable zoning and other regulations governing scenic quality?
The City of Beverly Hills is categorized as an urbanized area as it is largely built out with a mix of residential neighborhoods and commercial areas and corridors and is contiguous with other cities (such as the City of Los Angeles) that combined have a population of more than 100,000 residents (Public Resources Code Section 21071). The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to 22 City of Beverly Hills. 2023. BHMC Article 30: Architectural Commission, Architectural Review, and Procedure. Available:

reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development or zoning changes, the CAAP would not conflict with applicable zoning and other regulations governing scenic quality. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would be reviewed for consistency with the applicable requirements to the City’s Zoning Ordinance and adopted goals and policies of the Beverly Hills General Plan, including Open Space Element Policies OS 6, 6.1, and 6.2, which establish the City’s intent to maintain and protect significant visual resources and aesthetics that define the City. Thus, the CAAP would result in no impact related to preserving the visual character of the city.

NO IMPACT
d. Would the project create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area?
Beverly Hills is an urbanized community and contains many existing sources of light and glare including street and vehicle lighting, security lighting, interior and exterior building lighting, and reflective building materials.

The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. As such, the CAAP would not result in intensified development and associated sources of light and glare. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would be reviewed for consistency with the applicable requirements of CCR Title 24 lighting standards (CCR Title 24 Part 6) and BHMC Article 30, Architectural Commission, Architectural Review, and Procedure, which provide requirements for exterior lighting and building materials to limit glare and light trespass, including nighttime light trespass.24,25 In addition, future projects and actions would be reviewed for consistency with the Beverly Hills General Plan and other applicable regulatory land use actions prior to approval. Compliance with these regulations would minimize environmental impacts related to light and glare by limiting the use of highly reflective materials and requiring the shielding of exterior lighting. Thus, the CAAP would result in no impact related to light and glare.

Environmental Setting
Beverly Hills is located within the South Coast Air Basin (the Air Basin), which includes all of Orange County and the non-desert regions of Los Angeles County, Riverside County, and San Bernardino County. The Air Basin is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD).

As the local air quality management agency, SCAQMD is required to monitor air pollutant levels to require that State and federal air quality standards are met and, if they are not met, to develop strategies to meet the standards. Depending on whether or not the standards are met or exceeded, the Air Basin is classified as being in “attainment” or “nonattainment.” Under State law, air districts are required to prepare a plan for air quality improvement for pollutants for which the district is in non-attainment. SCAQMD is in non-attainment for the State and federal ozone standards, the State and federal PM2.5 (particulate matter up to 2.5 microns in size) standards, and the State PM10 (particulate matter up to 10 microns in size) standards, and the federal lead standards and is required to prepare a plan for improvement.
31 The sources, health effects, and typical controls
associated with criteria pollutants are described in Appendix A.

The SCAQMD 2022 AQMP provides strategies to improve air quality in the Air Basin and protect public health as well as the climate. The legal impetus for the AQMP is to comply with State air quality planning requirements as codified in the California Health and Safety Code. Although steady progress has been made toward reducing ozone levels in the Air Basin, the region continues to be designated as non‐attainment for both the one‐hour and eight‐hour State ozone standards, and has 31 South Coast Quality Management District (SCAQMD). 2018.

the highest levels of ozone in the nation. Under these circumstances, State law requires the AQMP to include all feasible measures to reduce emissions of ozone precursors and reduce transport of ozone precursors to neighboring air basins.32
The 2022 AQMP seeks to achieve multiple goals promoting reductions in criteria pollutant, greenhouse gases, and toxic risk, as well as efficiencies in energy use, transportation, and goods movement. The most effective way to reduce air pollution impacts on the health of the approximately 18.6 million residents in the Air Basin, including those in disproportionally impacted and environmental justice communities that are concentrated along transportation corridors and goods movement facilities, is to reduce emissions from mobile sources, the principal contributor to the air quality challenges in the Air Basin. The 2022 AQMP proposes aggressive new regulations and the development of incentive programs to support early deployment of advanced technologies. The two key areas for incentive programs are (1) promoting widespread deployment of available zero emission (ZE) and low nitrogen oxides (NOx) technologies and (2) developing new ZE and ultra-low NOx technologies for use in cases where the technology is not currently available.33 Impact Analysis
a. Would the project conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? The CAAP does not contain any policies that would conflict with or hinder implementation of any control measures in the 2022 AQMP. Rather, the CAAP is a policy document that includes strategies to reduce GHG emissions, with co-benefits to air quality, and aligns with the goals of the 2022 AQMP to improve air quality in the Air Basin, meet State and national air quality standards, and reduce exposure of sensitive receptors to toxic air contaminants. Therefore, the CAAP would be consistent with the 2022 AQMP and its adoption would have no impact related to a conflict with or obstruction of the applicable air quality plan.

NO IMPACT
b. Would the project result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard?
c. Would the project expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development or zoning changes, the CAAP would not result in new criteria air pollutant emissions or the exposure of sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations. Future projects involving construction activities that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would undergo project-specific review to address potential temporary air quality impacts. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would also be reviewed for consistency with SCAQMD air quality regulations and other applicable local, State, and federal regulations once project details and locations are known. The long-term implementation of the CAAP would have cobenefits to air quality, including reduced air pollutant emissions within Beverly Hills.

NO IMPACT
d. Would the project result in other emissions (such as those leading to odors) adversely affecting a substantial number of people?
The occurrence and severity of potential odor impacts depends on a number of factors, including the nature, frequency, and intensity of the source; the wind speeds and direction; and the sensitivity of the receiving location, each contribute to the intensity of the impact. Although offensive odors seldom cause physical harm, they can be annoying and cause distress among the public and generate citizen complaints.

The CARB 2005 Air Quality Land Use Handbook: A Community Health Perspective identifies land uses associated with odor complaints which include: sewage treatment plants, landfills, recycling facilities, waste transfer stations, petroleum refineries, biomass operations, auto body shops, coating operations, fiberglass manufacturing, foundries, rendering plants, and livestock operations.34 The CAAP would not facilitate development, such as sewage treatment plants or landfills, that could create substantial odors, and the CAAP would result in no impact related to odors exposure.

However, implementation of the CAAP would have no contribution related to potential cumulative air quality impacts within the Air Basin and on sensitive receptors within the city, given that the CAAP would result in reductions of GHG and air pollutant emissions, energy use, single-occupancy vehicle travel, and waste generation. As such, implementation of the CAAP would not result in adverse impacts related to the contribution of criteria pollutants to the air basin and exposure of sensitive receptors to toxic air contaminants. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no cumulative impact related to air quality.

Special-status” species are either federally or state-listed as endangered, threatened, or sensitive. “Endangered” species are those considered in imminent danger of extinction due their limited numbers. “Threatened” species refers to those likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future, primarily on a local scale. “Sensitive” species are those that are naturally rare or have been locally depleted or put at risk by human activities.

Beverly Hills is a primarily urbanized community with limited habitat to support special status species. However, according to Figure OS2 of the General Plan, the hoary bat can be found within the city and the Braunton’s milk-vetch and coast (San Diego) horned lizard can be found in the northern portion of the city.35 In addition, migratory and nesting birds protected by Sections 3503, 3503.5, and 3513 of the California Fish and Game Code (CFGC) and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) may utilize trees, landscaping, and structures throughout Beverly Hills for nesting habitat.

The Beverly Hills General Plan Open Space Element incorporates goals and policies to protect biological resources, such as plants, trees, wildlife habitats, wetlands and rivers, and rare and endangered species in Beverly Hills.36 In addition, the City has adopted an Urban Forest Management Plan to promote a sustainable urban forest within Beverly Hills.37 Impact Analysis

Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development or zoning changes, the CAAP would not directly result in impacts related to wildlife species identified as candidate, sensitive, or special status. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would undergo project-specific developmental review to address potential impacts and would be required to comply with the MBTA, CFCG, and the Federal and California Endangered Species Acts and illustrate consistency with Goal OS 1 and Policy OS 1.1 of the Open Space Element of the Beverly Hills General Plan, which would require protection of significant wildlife and vegetation in the city including nesting birds.47 Impacts identified for an individual project would be addressed through the project approval process specific to concerns for that project. Therefore, the CAAP would have no impact to candidate, sensitive or special status species.

b. Would the project have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations or by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? c. Would the project have a substantial adverse effect on state or federally protected wetlands (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means?
Beverly Hills consists of urban land that does not support riparian habitat, sensitive natural communities, or wetlands. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service National Wetlands Inventory Mapper does not identify any riparian or wetland habitat within or immediately adjacent to the city.38 Additionally, Figure OS2 of the General Plan Open Space Element does not identify any sensitive vegetation communities within the city, pursuant to maps prepared by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. As such, the CAAP would have no impact to riparian habitat, sensitive natural communities, or wetlands.

NO IMPACT
d. Would the project interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites? Beverly Hills is highly urbanized and offers limited habitat to provide migratory wildlife corridors or wildlife nursery sites. Areas that may support wildlife movement are generally limited to the northern fringes of Beverly Hills within the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains. 39 The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development or zoning changes, the CAAP would not interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites. The CAAP would promote sustainable infrastructure development and redevelopment within urbanized areas of Beverly Hills, with little application to parks, open spaces area, or other locations where habitat supporting wildlife migration and nurseries may be present. Therefore, the proposed plan would have no impact to wildlife movement corridors and nursery sites.

NO IMPACT
e. Would the project conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree preservation policy or ordinance?
The General Plan Open Space Element and BHMC contain policies and regulations that protect biological resources. In addition, BHMC Title 10, Chapter 3, Article 29, Regulation of Trees on Private Property, includes provisions regarding protected tree removal on single-family residential properties, tree removal permits, and replacement requirements.

48 specific projects or development. The CAAP envisions sustainable infrastructure and development in Beverly Hills and does not include strategies or measures that conflict with the General Plan Open Space Element or BHMC. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would comply with the BHMC tree removal requirements, as applicable. Therefore, the CAAP would not conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable policies for preserving biological resources and would not affect the City’s ability to attain goals and policies that protect biological resources. The CAAP would result in no impact related to consistency with local biological resources protection policies.

NO IMPACT
f. Would the project conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan?
The city is not located within the area of any adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or State habitat conservation plan.

Therefore, the CAAP would have no impact related to consistency with an adopted habitat or natural community conservation plan.

Cumulative Impacts
The cumulative scenario is the projected population, employment, and housing for the City in 2030, and the anticipated cumulative development to accommodate that growth. Based on the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS and 2021 RHNA allocation, Beverly Hills is anticipated to experience an increase of approximately 7,202 residents, 1,910 jobs, and 3,104 housing units compared to SCAG 2020-2045 RTP/SCS estimates for 2020. Cumulative impacts related to biological resources would generally be site-specific, and cumulative projects are not anticipated to contribute to cumulative biological impacts with adherence to the Federal and California Endangered Species Acts, MBTA, CFGC, BHMC, and Beverly Hills General Plan policies. Because of the developed nature of Beverly Hills, future projects facilitated by the CAAP, in combination with other cumulative projects anticipated through 2030, would be small scale and would not adversely impact biological resources within the city. In addition, future development in Beverly Hills would be reviewed against applicable local, State, and federal regulations. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no cumulative impact related to biological resources.

Environmental Setting
CEQA requires that a lead agency determine whether a project could have a significant effect on historical resources (PRC Section 21084.1), unique archaeological resources (PRC Section 21083.2[g]). A historical resource is a resource listed in or determined to be eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) (Section 21084.1), a resource included in a local register of historical resources (Section 15064.5[a][2]), or any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record, or manuscript that a lead agency determines to be historically significant (Section 15064.5[a][3]). A unique archaeological resource is an archaeological artifact, object, or site about which it can be clearly demonstrated that, without merely adding to the current body of knowledge, there is a high probability that it meets any of the following criteria: (1) contains information needed to answer important scientific research questions and that there is a demonstrable public interest in that information, (2) has a special and particular quality such as being the oldest of its type or the best available example of its type, (3) is directly associated with a scientifically recognized important prehistoric or historic event or person.

Impacts to cultural resources that qualify for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) or alter the significance of resources listed in or eligible for listing in the CRHR are considered a significant effect on the environment. These impacts could result from physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the resource or its immediate surroundings such that the significance of a historical resource would be materially impaired (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5[b][1]).

Material impairment is defined as demolition or alteration in an adverse manner of those characteristics of a historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its inclusion or eligibility for inclusion in the CRHR (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5[b][2][A]).

a. Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource pursuant to § 15064.5?
b. Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to § 15064.5?
According to the Historic Preservation Element of the Beverly Hills General Plan, six properties in Beverly Hills are listed on the NRHP including one residence, two public parks, two commercial properties, and one government property. Additionally, 56 properties are located on the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) statewide Historical Resources Inventory (HRI).40 The City of Beverly Hills does not maintain an inventory of archaeological sites, but it is assumed that there is potential to encounter unidentified resources on future development sites.

Although the City contains historic and archaeological resources, the CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development.

Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development, the CAAP would not create adverse change in the significance of a historical resource pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 or cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource. The CAAP envisions small-scale sustainable infrastructure development and redevelopment that would generally be limited to previously developed and disturbed areas of Beverly Hills where the presence of archaeological resources is unlikely. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would undergo project-specific developmental review to address potential impacts and would be required to comply with Beverly Hills Historic Preservation Element goals and policies related to the preservation of historic resources. Future projects would also be subject to the City’s Architectural Review, and the Architectural Commission would be required to review and approve proposed new development on any landmark site prior to issuance of a permit to demolish the existing structure on that site.41 Future projects would also be reviewed for compliance with applicable State, regional, and local regulations regarding cultural resources as well as the Beverly Hills Historical Preservation Element to avoid adverse impacts related to cultural resources. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to historic and archaeological resources.

Environmental Setting
Most of the electricity generated in California is from natural gas-fired power plants, which provided approximately 43 percent of total electricity generated in 2023. In 2023, California used 281,140 gigawatt hours (GWh) of electricity and produced approximately 77 percent of the electricity it used and imported the rest from outside the state.
42 Relevant State plans and policies that aim to increase energy efficiency and the production of renewable energy include SB 1020, the 2022 California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen or Title 24 Part 11), and the 2022 California Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24 Part 6). SB 1020 supports the reduction of GHG emissions from the electricity sector by accelerating the State RPS Program and requires electricity providers to increase procurement from eligible renewable energy resources to 90 percent of total retail sales by 2035, 95 percent by 2040, and 100 percent by 2045. Electricity to Beverly Hills is supplied by Southern California Edison (SCE) and the Clean Power Alliance (CPA). Residents and businesses are automatically enrolled in the CPA, which offers three power mix options; the Lean Power (41 percent renewable energy), Clean Power (50 percent renewable energy), and 100 percent Green Power (100 percent renewable energy).43 Tenants may also elect to enroll with the SCE default power mix of 31.4 percent eligible renewable (100 percent to fund solar energy sources), SCE’s “Green Rate 50 percent Option” (50 percent to fund solar energy sources), or SCE’s “Green Rate 100 percent Option”.44 CALGreen institutes mandatory minimum environmental performance standards for all ground-up new construction of nonresidential and residential structures. In addition, the California Building Energy Efficiency Standards establish energy-efficiency standards for residential and non-residential buildings in order to reduce California’s energy demand. Title 24 is updated periodically to incorporate and consider new energy-efficiency technologies and methodologies as they become available. New construction and 42 California Energy Commission. 2023.

Impact Analysis
a. Would the project result in potentially significant environmental impact due to wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy resources, during project construction or operation?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. The CAAP would not result in a potentially significant environmental impact due to wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy resources.

Rather, it would assist in reducing use of non-renewable energy resources and increasing the production of local renewable energy. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to the wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy.

NO IMPACT
b. Would the project conflict with or obstruct a state or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency?
The CAAP contains climate action strategies to reduce communitywide GHG emissions, including strategies that encourage energy efficiency and increased production and use of renewable energy within Beverly Hills. The CAAP would not conflict with or obstruct a State or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency and, rather, would align with the goals of SB 1020, CALGreen, and Title

Cumulative Impacts
The cumulative scenario is the projected population, employment, and housing for the City in 2030, and the anticipated cumulative development to accommodate that growth. Based on the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS and 2021 RHNA allocation, Beverly Hills is anticipated to experience an increase of approximately 7,202 residents, 1,910 jobs, and 3,104 housing units compared to SCAG 2020-2045 RTP/SCS estimates for 2020. The CAAP would result in reduced use of non-renewable energy resources across the community by phasing out natural gas use, increasing the use of 100 percent Green Power tier provided by CPA, and reducing the use of gasoline powered vehicles. The CAAP would also increase the production and storage of renewable energy within Beverly Hills by encouraging solar and battery storage projects. As Beverly Hills’s population grows and development intensifies in the future, actions contained within the CAAP would require that planned new development not related to the CAAP is constructed to strict energy efficiency standards and that VMT is reduced. As the CAAP would result in decreased non-renewable energy use within Beverly Hills and would align with existing plans and policies related to renewable energy and energy efficiency, the CAAP would result in no cumulative impact related to energy.

As discussed in the Beverly Hills General Plan Safety Element, there are several active faults in or near the city. The Hollywood and Santa Monica faults converge within the city, and the NewportInglewood Fault is located approximately two miles south of the city.45 Additionally, according to the DOC, a small portion of the city on and adjacent to Santa Monica Boulevard and within the Santa Monica Fault Zone is located in an Alquist-Priolo Fault Zone. 46 The City of Beverly Hills includes potential seismic hazards such as strong ground shaking , fault rupture, earthquake induced landslides and liquefaction. Most of the city’s landslide zones are located in the northern area of Beverly Hills. Furthermore, certain areas north of the city and east of the city as well as a small portion between Gregory Way and Olympic Boulevard are located within liquefaction zones.47

56 promptly and effectively to any foreseeable emergency, including the provision and utilization of mutual aid.48 The City has adopted a variety of policies to reduce seismic risks. The City has adopted the most recent California Building Code (CBC) pursuant to Title 9, Chapter 1, Article 2 of the BHMC, which includes increased requirements for the safe design and construction of buildings. Beverly Hills has also adopted a policy requiring a Site-Specific Seismic Fault Investigation for non-exempt projects in the city. The policy requires preparation, peer review, and City approval of a faultrupture investigation that studies the potential for fault rupture, slope instability, liquefaction, settlement, and surface displacement.49 Additionally, pursuant to Title 10, Chapter 2, Article 6, preparation of soil reports are required for development projects in order to identify potential risks such as landslides and recommend corrective action. The Safety Element of the Beverly Hills General Plan also provides goals and policies to prepare for and minimize earthquake-related hazards.

Although Beverly Hills is at risk of earthquake-induced ground shaking and associated hazards, the CAAP is a policy document containing climate strategies and supporting actions to reduce GHG emissions and is consistent with the Beverly Hills General Plan, LHMP, and other State and regional seismic regulations. The CAAP does not propose habitable development or policies that could result in substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving rupture of a known earthquake fault, strong seismic ground shaking, seismic-related ground failure including liquefaction, or landslides. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to seismic- and landslide-related hazards.

NO IMPACT
b. Would the project result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Therefore, the CAAP would not directly result in ground-disturbing activities that could cause substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would undergo project-specific developmental review to address potential impacts and would be reviewed for consistency with BHMC and other State and local erosion and grading regulations prior to final siting and construction. The potential for substantial erosion would be minimized, because future projects would be required to comply with the applicable provisions of BHMC Title 10, Chapter 2, Article 9 which outlines provisions for grading and erosion control; BHMC Title 9, Chapter 4, Article 5, which outlines requirements for stormwater and urban runoff pollution control and required compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Statewide General Construction Permit; and BHMC Section 9-4-507, which requires the use of standard construction best management practices (BMPs) on construction sites in order to reduce soil erosion impacts. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to soil erosion and loss of topsoil.

d. Would the project be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1994), creating substantial direct or indirect risks to life or property? According to the LHMP, certain areas north and east of the city, as well as a small portion between Gregory Way and Olympic Boulevard, are located within liquefaction zones.50 Additionally, although the city has experienced limited subsidence over the years, it is still a potential hazard within the city.51 As such, the Beverly Hills General Plan Safety Element, BHMC, and CBC contain regulations for structural design and soil hazards in order to mitigate potential impacts related to unstable soils.

Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to risks associated with unstable geologic units or soils.

NO IMPACT
e. Would the project have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative waste water disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of waste water?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. The CAAP would not involve the development of habitable structures and, thus, no use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems would be required. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to soil capability support of alternative wastewater disposal systems.

f. Would the project directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature?
Paleontological resources, or fossils, are the evidence of once-living organisms preserved in the rock record. They include both the fossilized remains of ancient plants and animals and the traces thereof (e.g., trackways, imprints, burrows, etc.). Paleontological resources are not found in “soil” but are contained within the geologic deposits or bedrock that underlies the soil layer. According to 50 City of Beverly Hills. 2016.

The northeastern portion of the city is underlain with Mesozoic plutonic rocks and the northwestern portion of the city is underlain with Jurassic marine sedimentary and metasedimentary rocks. A small strip of area between Lexington Road, Doheny Road, and Sunset Boulevard is underlain with Pleistocene marine and continental sedimentary rocks. 52 The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development, the CAAP would not result in impacts related to paleontological resources or unique geologic features. The CAAP would promote sustainable infrastructure development and redevelopment within previously developed areas of Beverly Hills. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would be located and designed to reduce ground disturbance to the maximum extent possible. To reduce risks related to paleontological resources, future projects and actions would be reviewed for consistency with geotechnical and paleontological regulations prior to final siting and construction. Future construction would be required to comply with Policy HP 1.9 of the Historic Preservation Element of the Beverly Hills General Plan, which outlines requirements for the unanticipated discovery of paleontological resources. In addition, future development requiring discretionary approval would be subject to development plan review to determine potential concerns related to paleontological resources or unique geologic features based on site-specific locations and development design. Therefore, the CAAP would not directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site, or unique geologic feature and no impact would occur.

Cumulative Impacts
The cumulative scenario is the projected population, employment, and housing for the city in 2030, and the anticipated cumulative development to accommodate that growth. Based on the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS and 2021 RHNA allocation, Beverly Hills is anticipated to experience an increase of approximately 7,202 residents, 1,910 jobs, and 3,104 housing units compared to SCAG 2020-2045 RTP/SCS estimates for 2020. Cumulative impacts related to seismic and geologic hazards and paleontological resources would generally be site-specific. The magnitude of geologic hazards for individual projects would depend upon the location, type, and size of development and the specific hazards associated with individual sites. Specific geologic hazards associated with individual project sites would be limited to those sites without affecting other areas. Similarly, potential impacts to paleontological resources associated with each individual site would be limited to that site without affecting other areas, and impacts related to these resources would be minimized on a case-by-case basis. Future development in Beverly Hills would be required to comply with CBC requirements, City-issued permit requirements, the Beverly Hills General Plan, the BHMC, and Construction General Permit requirements which would minimize potential cumulative seismic and geologic impacts. Seismic and geologic hazards and paleontological resources would be addressed on a caseby-case basis and would not result in cumulative impacts. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no cumulative impact related to geology and soils.

Environmental Setting
Gases that absorb and re-emit infrared radiation in the atmosphere are called greenhouse gases (GHG). The gases widely seen as the principal contributors to human-induced climate change include carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxides (N2O), fluorinated gases such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) and perfluorocarbons (PFC), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). Water vapor is excluded from the list of GHGs because it is short-lived in the atmosphere, and natural processes, such as oceanic evaporation, largely determine its atmospheric concentrations. GHGs are emitted by natural processes and human activities. Of these gases, CO2 and CH4 are emitted in the greatest quantities from human activities. Emissions of CO2 are usually by-products of fossil fuel combustion, and CH4 results from off-gassing associated with agricultural practices and landfills. Human-made GHGs, many of which have greater heat-absorption potential than CO2, include fluorinated gases and SF6.
53 Different types of GHGs have varying global warming potentials (GWP). The GWP of a GHG is the potential of a gas or aerosol to trap heat in the atmosphere over a specified timescale (generally, 100 years). Because GHGs absorb different amounts of heat, a common reference gas (CO2) is used to relate the amount of heat absorbed to the amount of the gas emitted, referred to as “carbon dioxide equivalent” (CO2e), which is the amount of GHG emitted multiplied by its GWP.

Carbon dioxide has a 100-year GWP of one. By contrast, methane has a GWP of 30, meaning its global warming effect is 30 times greater than CO2 on a molecule per molecule basis.

Applicable plans, policies, and regulations adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emissions include SB 32, AB 1279, and the CARB Change Scoping Plans. SB 32 establishes a Statewide GHG emissions reduction target of 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030 and AB 1279 establishes a target of carbon neutrality by 2045. The CARB 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan outlines a pathway to achieving the 2030 reduction targets set under SB 32, and the CARB 2022 Climate Change Scoping Plan outlines a pathway for achieving the 2045 carbon neutrality goal established by AB 1279. 53 United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). 2023.

60 Impact Analysis
a. Would the project generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment?
b. Would the project conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. The proposed plan would not generate GHG emissions that may have a significant impact on the environment and would not conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emissions. Rather, the CAAP would result in a reduction of GHG emissions within Beverly Hills and allow the City to make substantial progress towards meeting its fair share of the Statewide GHG reduction goals. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to GHGs.

62 Environmental Setting
The Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) regulates hazardous waste in California primarily under the authority of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and the California Health and Safety Code. The DTSC also administers the California Hazardous Waste Control Law to regulate hazardous waste. The Hazardous Waste Control Law lists 791 chemicals and approximately 300 common materials that may be hazardous; establishes criteria for identifying, packaging, and labeling hazardous wastes; prescribes management controls; establishes permit requirements for treatment, storage, disposal, and transportation; and identifies some wastes that cannot be disposed of in landfills.

The DTSC EnviroStor database contains information on properties in California where hazardous substances have been released or where the potential for a release exists. The California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) GeoTracker database contains information on properties in California for sites that require cleanup, such as leaking underground storage tank (LUST) sites, which may impact water quality, with emphasis on groundwater. According to databases of hazardous material sites maintained by the DTSC and the SWRCB, Beverly Hills contains the following types of hazardous sites that are still active or need further investigation: voluntary cleanup, school cleanup, cleanup program sites, and LUST cleanup sites. 54, 55 These sites are
dispersed throughout the city.

As required by State law, the City of Beverly Hills has adopted a Standardized Emergency Management System and National Incident Management System for managing response to multiagency and multi-jurisdictional emergencies, and to facilitate communications and coordination among all levels of government and affected agencies. The Beverly Hills EOP addresses the City’s planned response to emergency situations related to major natural and man-made disasters. The EOP is designed to comply with the California Standardized Emergency Management System and the National Incident Management System. In addition, the Hazard Mitigation Action Plan was added to the Beverly Hills General Plan Safety Element in 2011 in response to the Disaster Mitigation Act 2000, which required State and local governments to develop hazard mitigation plans and update them every 5 years.

a. Would the project create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials? b. Would the project create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development, the CAAP would not result in impacts related to hazardous material transport, use, or disposal. The storage, handling, and disposal of hazardous materials are regulated by the California 54 Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC). 2025. EnviroStor Available:

Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would be required to comply with all local, State, and federal regulations regarding the handling of potentially hazardous materials, including but not limited to Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 22, Division 4.5 of the CCR, the NPDES permitting program for construction activities, 29 CFR Part 1910, National Fire Protection Association standards, and Beverly Hills Fire Department review and conditions. Additionally, future projects involving the use or storage of hazardous materials would be subject to existing regulations in the BHMC and Beverly Hills General Plan, including policies and development standards that would limit the allowable locations of such uses. Such projects would also require discretionary permit approvals and project-level CEQA review. With adherence to existing policies and regulations, the CAAP would result in no impact related to hazardous materials.

NO IMPACT
c. Would the project emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? There are several schools located within the City of Beverly Hills, such as Beverly Hills High School, Beverly Vista Elementary School, and Beverly Hills Adult School. The CAAP is a policy document containing strategies to reduce GHG emissions. The CAAP does not include site-specific proposals and development that would emit or handle hazardous materials. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would be reviewed to require the appropriate location of projects in relation to existing development in Beverly Hills and would be reviewed for consistency with the Beverly Hills General Plan, BHMC, and applicable federal, State, and local regulations related to hazardous materials. As discussed above, the proposed plan would not involve the use or transport of hazardous materials. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no hazardous materialsrelated impacts to schools.

NO IMPACT
d. Would the project be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code § 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the CAAP does not involve or approve physical development, adoption of the proposed plan would not result in impacts related to hazardous waste sites. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would be reviewed to require the appropriate location in relation to existing development and would be reviewed for consistency with the Beverly Hills General Plan Safety Element Policies S 6.5 and S 6.6, which requires projects in known areas of contamination to perform comprehensive soil and groundwater contamination assessments, and require projects that generate or use hazardous materials to develop and implement strict land use controls, performance standards, and structure design standards. 56 In addition, for future development that could occur on hazardous materials sites, in accordance with existing regulations, the City would coordinate with oversight agencies to 56 City of Beverly Hills. 2010.

Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to location on a listed hazardous materials site.

NO IMPACT
e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard or excessive noise for people residing or working in the project area? Beverly Hills does not contain any airports. The nearest airports to Beverly Hills are the Los Angeles International Airport located 14 roadway miles to the south of Beverly Hills, the Hollywood Burbank Airport located approximately 14 roadway miles to the north of Beverly Hills, and the Santa Monica Municipal Airport located approximately six roadway miles west of Beverly Hills. The CAAP is a policy document that would not increase airport activity or result in additional habitable development or commercial development that could increase potential exposure of residents and employees to aircraft-related hazards. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to risks associated with location proximate to a public airport.

NO IMPACT
f. Would the project impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the CAAP does not involve or approve physical development, adoption of the proposed plan would not interfere with emergency response or evacuation within the city. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan that could affect roadways would be required to comply with Section 8-7-3 of the BHMC which outlines permit requirements for construction in the public right-of-way. Future projects involving work in the public right-of-way would be required to coordinate with the City through street use permits, encroachment permit review, and construction permitting processes to confirm adequate vehicular and pedestrian access on adjacent roadways and that emergency evacuation routes would not be substantially impacted. Furthermore, the CAAP includes strategies and measures to enhance climate resilience and emergency response within the city. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to impairment or interference with implementation of an emergency response or evacuation plan.

Environmental Setting
Surface Water
There are no rivers or wetlands within the city. Additionally, Beverly Hills does not have any major irrigation canals flowing through it.

Groundwater
Beverly Hills receives its water supply from local groundwater from two groundwater basins (Hollywood Basin and Unadjudicated Portion of the Central Basin). The remaining balance was provided by Metropolitan Water District (Metropolitan). Metropolitan imports water supplies from two main sources: (1) the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers through the State Water Project and (2) the Colorado River via the Colorado River Aqueduct.59 Flooding
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) establishes base flood elevations (BFE) for 100-year and 500-year flood zones and establishes Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA). SFHAs are those areas within 100-year flood zones or areas that will be inundated by a flood event having a one percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. The 500-year flood zone is defined as the area that could be inundated by the flood which has a 0.2 percent probability of occurring in any given year, or once in 500 years, and is not considered an SFHA. The City is within Flood Zone X, an area of minimal flood hazard that is outside the 0.2 and 1.0 percent chance of annual flood hazard zones.
60 Dam Inundation
According to the Safety Element of the Beverly Hills General Plan, portions of the city are threatened by flooding from the city’s Greystone Reservoir, Woodland Reservoir, Sunset Reservoir, and the City’s above-ground reservoirs (Reservoirs 4B, 5, 6, 3A).61 The city also lies in the inundation path of the Lower Franklin Canyon Reservoir which is located north of the city.

Impact Analysis
a. Would the project violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or otherwise substantially degrade surface or ground water quality? The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development, adoption of the CAAP would not violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or otherwise substantially degrade surface or ground water quality.

68 (SWPPPs), as well as Title 9, Chapter 4, Article 5 of the BHMC which outlines guidelines for stormwater and urban runoff pollution control. These regulations require BMPs to reduce water quality impacts from construction activities. With compliance with these regulations, future projects would not result in new or different waste discharge that would violate water quality standards, waste discharge requirements, or otherwise degrade surface or groundwater quality. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impacts related to surface or groundwater water quality in Beverly Hills.

NO IMPACT
b. Substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that the project may impede sustainable groundwater management of the basin? e. Would the project conflict with or obstruct implementation of a water quality control plan or sustainable groundwater management plan?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. The CAAP includes strategies and measures to reduce water use.

Reduced water use within Beverly Hills would aid in maintaining groundwater supplies and sustainable groundwater management. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to the impedance of sustainable groundwater management and conflicts with water quality control and sustainable groundwater management plans.

NO IMPACT

consistency with the applicable requirements of the BHMC and NPDES Construction General Permit program, including implementation of BMPs to address drainage patterns. Future development would be required to comply with an NPDES permit issued for discharge, if applicable, as well as BMPs for construction. Operators of a construction site would also be responsible for preparing and implementing a SWPPP that outlines project specific BMPs to control erosion, sediment release, and otherwise reduce the potential for discharge of pollutants in stormwater. Therefore, the CAAP would not result in a substantial increase in runoff that would result in substantial erosion, siltation, flooding on- or off-site; or increase polluted runoff and there would be no impact.

NO IMPACT
d. In flood hazard, tsunami, or seiche zones, would the project risk release of pollutants due to project inundation?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development, adoption of the CAAP would not result in the release of pollutants due to inundation.

Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would be reviewed for compliance with the applicable State and local regulations related to flooding and hazardous materials use and storage, as well as CBC standards for construction within flood-prone areas.

Future projects would also be required to comply with applicable policies included in the Beverly Hills General Plan Safety Element, such as Policies S 4.1 through S 4.6, which require flood mitigation design in new development and outline requirements for storing and using hazardous materials within flood zones. Therefore, the CAAP would not result in impacts related to the release of pollutants due to project inundation.

a. Would the project physically divide an established community? The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development, adoption of the CAAP would not physically divide an established community.

Furthermore, the CAAP includes strategies to improve pedestrian, public transit, and bicycle access throughout Beverly Hills, increasing community connectivity. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to the division of an established community.

NO IMPACT
b. Would the project cause a significant environmental impact due to a conflict with any land use plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development.

For example, the BHMC and other applicable City documents may need to be amended to reflect new or modified sustainability requirements. However, where modifications of existing policies are needed, such as updates to policies related to energy, solid waste, EV infrastructure, and active transportation, the CAAP would result in greater avoidance or reduction of environmental effects. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to consistency with current land use plans or policies adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect.

NO IMPACT
Cumulative Impacts
The cumulative scenario is the projected population, employment, and housing for the City in 2030, and the anticipated cumulative development to accommodate that growth. Based on the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS and 2021 RHNA allocation, Beverly Hills is anticipated to experience an increase of approximately 7,202 residents, 1,910 jobs, and 3,104 housing units compared to SCAG 2020-2045 RTP/SCS estimates for 2020. The CAAP is a policy document containing programs that are consistent with the City’s General Plan goals to increase sustainability and reduce Beverly Hill’s contribution to climate change impacts. Nonetheless, the CAAP may require some modification of existing policies, including developing and implementing new programs or modifying existing ones. The proposed policy changes are consistent with the intent of the goals and policies established within the City General Plan and would not cumulatively contribute to any environmental impacts. Cumulative projects would be required to adhere to City development regulations and Beverly Hills General Plan policies to retain land use character and minimize environmental impacts. In addition, future development in Beverly Hills would be required to comply with the Beverly Hills General Plan, BHMC, and other applicable regulatory land use actions prior to approval. The CAAP would have the overall effect of greater avoidance or reduction of environmental effects. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no cumulative impact related to land use.

The City of Beverly Hills has a history of hydrocarbon production in the form of oil and gas wells.

Since 1967 various companies have produced hydrocarbons from the East Beverly Hills, San Vicente, and South Salt Lake oil fields. The Salt Lake Field is slant drilled under Beverly Hills from Los Angeles.

The Beverly Hills Oil Field is both slant drilled from Los Angeles and drilled directly from Beverly Hills.65 The Beverly Hills General Plan Conservation Element includes Policies CON 21.1 and 21.2 to prohibit new hydrocarbon drilling and phase out existing drilling sites.66 Other than oil, there are no significant mineral resources, mineral deposits, or active mineral mining sites currently mapped within the city. According to the Conservation Element of the Beverly Hills General Plan, most of the city is located in Mineral Resource Zone-3 (MRZ) and a small portion of the southeastern part of the city is located in an MRZ-1.67 MRZ-1 are areas where no significant mineral deposits are present, and MRZ-3 are areas of undetermined mineral resource significance.68 65 City of Beverly Hills. 2004.

Environmental Setting
Environmental noise levels fluctuate over time with noise-sensitive areas including residences, hospitals, and schools. Noise is measured in decibels (dB) on a logarithmic scale. The Beverly Hills General Plan Noise Element and BHMC Title 5, Chapter 1, Article 2 establish appropriate noise levels considered to be compatible for community noise environments. The General Plan Noise Element identifies roadway traffic as the major source of noise within Beverly Hills. Other sources of noise include stationary noise sources such as restaurants, bars, and entertainment establishments; mechanical equipment such as heating and cooling equipment and landscape maintenance equipment; commercial noise such as rooftop heating and cooling equipment and other operational activities; and outdoor sports facilities.69 The City’s normally acceptable exterior noise exposure standards (CNEL) are shown below in Table 4.

Construction noise is regulated by BHMC Section 5-1-205, which outlines construction hours of 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. from Monday to Sunday. Construction noise is prohibited within a residential zone, or within 500 feet of a residential zone, at any time on Saturday unless a construction permit has been issued.

While people have varying sensitivities to vibrations at different frequencies, in general they are most sensitive to low-frequency vibration. Vibration in buildings, such as from nearby construction activities, may cause windows, items on shelves, and pictures on walls to rattle. Vibration of building components can also take the form of an audible low-frequency rumbling noise, referred to as groundborne noise.71 Although groundborne vibration is sometimes noticeable in outdoor environments, it is almost never annoying to people who are outdoors. The primary concern from vibration is that it can be intrusive and annoying to building occupants and vibration-sensitive land uses.

Vibration amplitudes are usually expressed in peak particle velocity (PPV) or Root Mean Square (RMS) vibration velocity. The PPV and RMS velocity are normally described in inches per second (in/sec). PPV is defined as the maximum instantaneous positive or negative peak of a vibration signal. PPV is often used in monitoring of blasting vibration because it is related to the stresses that are experienced by buildings.72 Vibration significance ranges from approximately 50 vibration 71 Caltrans. 2020.

a. Would the project result in generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development, adoption of the CAAP would not result in generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in excess of the applicable standards. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would be reviewed for consistency with the applicable requirements of the General Plan Noise Element and BHMC, and construction activities would be required to comply with the provisions of the BHMC Section 5-1-205. Furthermore, the CAAP would not facilitate future projects that would result in substantial operational noise. Rather, the CAAP encompasses a suite of GHG-reduction opportunities that would reduce VMT and associated roadway noise, the major source of noise in Beverly Hills as identified by the General Plan Noise Element. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to noise exposure.

c. For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels?
The nearest airports to Beverly Hills are the Los Angeles International Airport located 14 roadway miles to the south of Beverly Hills, the Hollywood Burbank Airport located approximately 14 roadway miles to the north of Beverly Hills, and the Santa Monica Municipal Airport located approximately six roadway miles west of Beverly Hills. Beverly Hills does not contain any airports and is not within the airport land use plan or noise contours for the Los Angeles International Airport, Hollywood Burbank Airport, or the Santa Monica Municipal Airport. Furthermore, the CAAP is a policy document that would not increase airport activity or result in additional habitable development or commercial development that could increase potential exposure of residents and employees to aircraft-related noise. Therefore, adoption the CAAP would result in no impact related to aviation-related noise exposure.

▪ Goal CIR 2: Transit. Development of a safe, comprehensive, and integrated transit system that serves as an essential component of a multi-modal mobility system within the City. ▪ Goal CIR 3: Neighborhood Traffic Management. An improved community character and quality of life in City neighborhoods through the implementation of traffic management techniques. ▪ Goal CIR 4: Parking. A parking system that balances goals for economic development, advanced Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) technology, reduced travel through Transportation Demand Management (TDM) measures, livable neighborhoods, sustainability, and public safety within the City.
▪ Goal CIR 5: Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). An efficient transportation system that utilizes Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) to improve operations of existing and future facilities through advanced technologies, such as adaptive signal controls, real-time parking availability, and real-time transit information.
▪ Goal CIR 6: Transportation Demand Management (TDM). A reduction in single-occupant motor vehicle travel in the City through Transportation Demand Management (TDM) that ensures efficiency of the existing transportation network and promotes the movement of people instead of personal automobiles.
▪ Goal CIR 7: Pedestrians. A safe and comfortable pedestrian environment that results in walking as a desirable travel choice, particularly for short trips, within the City. ▪ Goal CIR 8: Bikeways. An integrated, complete, and safe bicycle system to encourage bicycling within the City.
▪ Goal CIR 9: Goods Movement. A safe and efficient movement of goods to support commerce within the City.
▪ Goal CIR 10: Funding. Develop sufficient funding sources to construct and maintain the transportation facilities needed to achieve the City’s mobility goals. ▪ Goal CIR 11: Role of the Alleys. With the major exception of the area east of Robertson Boulevard and parts of the area north of Sunset Boulevard, the City is fully served by alleys which traverse midblock and provide rear service to the City’s residential, commercial and industrial parcels. These alleys play an important and complex role in the structure of the City.83 Additionally, the City adopted a Complete Streets Plan in 2021 in order to make active transportation within Beverly Hills a safe and pleasant option by providing new and improved bicycle and pedestrian networks and enhanced transit operations. The Complete Streets Plan complements and expands on existing policies within the Beverly Hills General Plan by building a blueprint for a system of bikeways and pedestrian facilities across Beverly Hills.84 The CAAP is a policy document containing strategies and policies that are consistent with the Beverly Hills General Plan Circulation Element and the Complete Streets Plan goals related to improving multi-modal facilities, reducing VMT and single-occupancy vehicles, encouraging active transportation, and reducing vehicle congestion within Beverly Hills.

c. Would the project substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? d. Would the project result in inadequate emergency access? The CAAP is a policy document containing strategies that are consistent with the Beverly Hills General Plan, including the Circulation Element and Safety Element. The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development.

Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development, adoption of the CAAP would not result in roadway transportation hazards or inadequate emergency access. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan involving work in the public rightof-way would be required to comply with Section 8-7-3 of the BHMC which outlines permit requirements for construction in the public right-of-way. Compliance with the BHMC would require that significant impacts to the circulation system design, including safety impacts and emergency access, would not occur. Furthermore, the CAAP would facilitate increased active transportation and public transit use and decreased VMT within Beverly Hills, which in turn would reduce potential transportation hazards and congestion conditions that can hinder emergency response. Thus, the CAAP would result in no impact related to transportation hazards and emergency access.

Cumulative projects that occur to accommodate Beverly Hills’ anticipated population, employment, and housing growth could result in increases in VMT or changes affecting roadway design safety and emergency access. However, the CAAP is a policy document containing measures and actions that are consistent with the Beverly Hills General Plan Circulation Element and other applicable transportation policies and does not propose new development that would increase VMT, result in design hazards, or affect emergency access. Rather, the CAAP would promote alternative modes of transportation and reduction of VMT throughout Beverly Hills. Implementation of the CAAP would guide future development within the city and confirm that future projects within Beverly Hills are planned and designed to limit VMT and improve multi-modal access. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no cumulative impact related to transportation.

The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. Because the proposed plan does not involve or approve physical development, the CAAP would not create a substantial adverse change in the significance of a tribal cultural resource. The CAAP envisions small-scale sustainable infrastructure development and redevelopment that would generally be limited to previously developed and disturbed areas of Beverly Hills where the presence of tribal cultural resources is unlikely. Future projects that occur during implementation of the proposed plan would undergo project-specific developmental review to address potential impacts and would be required to comply with federal, State, and local tribal cultural and archaeological regulations prior to final siting and construction. Future projects would be required to comply with Goal HP 1 and associated policies of the General Plan Historic Preservation Element, which outline guidelines for the protection and preservation of historical resources in the city.

Cumulative development that occurs to accommodate Beverly Hills’ anticipated population, employment, households, and service population growth, could increase the potential for adverse effects to unknown tribal cultural resources in the city. However, impacts to tribal cultural resources are site-specific; accordingly, as required under applicable laws and regulations, potential impacts associated with cumulative developments would be addressed on a 85 City of Beverly Hills. 2010.

Future development in Beverly Hills would also be required to comply with the Beverly Hills General Plan Historic Preservation Element for the protection and proper treatment of any tribal cultural resources discovered during ground disturbance, which would minimize the potential for significant cumulative impacts to tribal cultural resources. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no cumulative impact related to tribal cultural resources.

Energy Utilities
Beverly Hills is serviced by SCE and CPA for electricity and by Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) for natural gas.

Water
The Beverly Hills Department of Public Works provides water service to a 6.35-square mile service area, including the entire City of Beverly Hills and a portion of the City of West Hollywood. The City obtains its water through purchases from Metropolitan and pumping of local groundwater.

City of Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills Climate Action and Adaptation Plan
92 Metropolitan receives its water supply from the State Water Project and the Colorado River via the Colorado River Aqueduct.86. The Beverly Hills Integrated Water Resources Master Plan is a comprehensive planning document that analyzes the water, sewer, and storm drain systems owned, operated, and maintained by the City and includes an analysis of capital improvements.87 Wastewater
The City’s Department of Public Works maintains sewer collection and distribution systems located throughout Beverly Hills. All of the wastewater flows generated in the City (not including storm water) are collected and treated at the Los Angeles Hyperion Wastewater Treatment Plant (HTP), located in the City of Los Angeles. The HTP is the largest of four wastewater treatment plants in the area surrounding the City of Los Angeles that is currently permitted by the LARWQCB to discharge treated wastewater into receiving waters.88
Stormwater Drainage
The City of Beverly Hills and Los Angeles County Flood Control District maintain a system of storm drains, gutters, and ditches to convey stormwater generated during rain events.

Telecommunications
The city is served by existing telecommunications companies such as Spectrum, AT&T, Verizon.

Solid Waste
The Solid Waste Division of the City Public Works Department is responsible for solid waste collection in Beverly Hills. The City contracts with Athens Environmental Services for waste hauling and collection services. The disposal of solid waste occurs at one of three designated landfills: MidValley, Victorville, and San Timoteo Landfill. 89 Impact Analysis
a. Would the project require or result in the relocation or construction of new or expanded water, wastewater treatment or storm water drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunications facilities, the construction or relocation of which could cause significant environmental effects?
The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. The CAAP seeks to reduce water use, solid waste production, and energy consumption and related GHG emissions and does not include site-specific infrastructure designs or project proposals. Furthermore, the CAAP would not result in an increase in population and housing, nor would it facilitate growth beyond that anticipated by the Beverly Hills General Plan, as described in Section 14, Population and Housing. As such, the CAAP would not create new 86 Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD). 2023. Overview and Mission. Available:

Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to need for relocation or construction of new or expanded water, wastewater treatment or storm water drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunications facilities.

NO IMPACT
b. Would the project have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project and reasonably foreseeable future development during normal, dry and multiple dry years? c. Would the project result in a determination by the waste water treatment provider, which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project’s projected demand in addition to the provider’s existing commitments? The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. The CAAP would not grant entitlements for development that would have the potential to increase demand for water supply or wastewater treatment. Rather, the CAAP contains measures to reduce water use and resulting wastewater generation within Beverly Hills. Thus, the CAAP would result in no impact related to water supply and wastewater treatment capacity.

NO IMPACT
d. Would the project generate solid waste in excess of state or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals?
e. Would the project comply with federal, state, and local management and reduction statutes and regulations related to solid waste?
The CAAP would not facilitate increased development and, thus, would result in an increase in solid waste collection and disposal demand. Rather, the CAAP includes measures to reduce solid waste production and increase solid and organic waste diversion and recycling within Beverly Hills. The CAAP would align with federal, State, and local regulations that seek to decrease the production of solid waste and increase solid waste diversion rates, such as SB 1383. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to solid waste.

96 According to the City’s LHMP and CAL FIRE, the area north of Sunset Boulevard is designated as a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ) in a Local Responsibility Area (LRA), while the central portions of Beverly Hills south of Sunset Boulevard are not subject to wildfire risk. 92, 93 Impact Analysis
a. If located in or near state responsibility areas or lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zones, would the project substantially impair an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan?
b. If located in or near state responsibility areas or lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zones, would the project, due to slope, prevailing winds, and other factors, exacerbate wildfire risks, and thereby expose project occupants to pollutant concentrations from a wildfire or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire?
c. If located in or near state responsibility areas or lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zones, would the project require the installation or maintenance of associated infrastructure (such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines or other utilities) that may exacerbate fire risk or that may result in temporary or ongoing impacts to the environment? d. If located in or near state responsibility areas or lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zones, would the project expose people or structures to significant risks, including downslope or downstream flooding or landslides, as a result of runoff, post-fire slope instability, or drainage changes?
The CAAP does not propose specific development or new residential or commercial land uses that could be subject to wildland fire, nor would it result other physical changes to the environment that could increase the risk of a wildland fire. In addition, the CAAP includes measures to improve community preparedness and response to climate-related hazards, including wildfire and associated air pollution risks. Therefore, the CAAP would result in no impact related to wildfire.

a. Does the project have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, substantially reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? The CAAP involves the adoption of a policy document to reduce Beverly Hills’ GHG emissions and increase climate resilience in the city and does not in and of itself propose or grant entitlements for specific projects or development. The CAAP is consistent with the Beverly Hills General Plan and encourages residents, businesses, and institutions to reduce energy and water use, fuel use, VMT, and solid waste generation and the associated GHG emissions. The CAAP would not facilitate development that would degrade the quality of the environment (as addressed throughout this document), eliminate or threaten wildlife habitats or protected species (as addressed in Section 4, City of Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills Climate Action and Adaptation Plan
98 Biological Resources), or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory (as addressed in Section 5, Cultural Resources).

Through the City’s development review process, future development projects would be evaluated for potential direct and indirect impacts on biological and cultural resources. Therefore, the proposed plan would not substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below selfsustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, substantially reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory and no impacts would occur.

b. Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (“Cumulatively considerable” means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects.)? As discussed in the Environmental Checklist Sections 1 through 20, all impact areas were determined to have no impact as a result of project implementation. Thus, the project plan would not contribute to cumulative impacts. No impact would occur.

NO IMPACT
c. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly?
In general, impacts to human beings are associated with air quality, GHG emissions, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, transportation, and wildfire impacts. As detailed in this Environmental Checklist, the proposed plan would have no impact related to these resources. Therefore, the CAAP would not result in environmental effects which would cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. No impact would occur.
