Subject: Application for PD Amendment - 96-1 (The Burbank Studios / Pointe) Date: Wednesday, March 8, 2023 9:15:49 PM
Attachments: PD 96-1 Amendment Application 030823 - Signed.pdf CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.
Hi David –
Attached is an application for a three-year extension to our DA for The Burbank Studios / Pointe properties located at 2900 and 3800 W. Alameda. I’ve discussed this with Scott and he suggested I submit the application to you so you can upload it to the system and give me other instructions (if any) to get started on retaining an enviro consultant to evaluate any CEQA impacts of the extension.
As I explained to Scott, this DA was approved in 1997 with a certified EIR. In 2013, we requested a 10 year extension (from the original expiration in 2017 to 2027). The City prepared a supplemental EIR, the City Council certified it and some additional mitigation measures were added to the DA Amendment. However, at the meeting the Council decided to reduce the extension period from 10 years to 7 years, meaning the DA now expires March 19, 2024. The Council at the time said they wanted us to return to Council if we really felt like we needed the additional 3 years.
We’ve made tremendous progress on building out the Project – our completion of Phase II of the “Second Century Project” designed by Frank Gehry will be May 2023. Given the slowdowns and uncertainties we encountered during the pandemic, we put our architect (again, Frank Gehry) on pause in doing the drawings for Pointe Phase II. We are now ramping up to complete those drawings in order to submit for plan check, but realistically we will need more time than the current DA provides.
Further, as the City knows, Warner Bros. will be acquiring The Burbank Studios from Worthe in July 2023, and there are still improvements they intend to complete under the DA’s approved project – but July 2023 through March 2024 is a pretty tight timeline for anything worthwhile to be designed / built!
Which brings us to this email – we are submitting an application to extend to March 2027, which was what our prior EIR studied and the City Council considered. I anticipate very little CEQA review need be done because the project through 2027 has already been analyzed, but Scott suggested we still need to retain a CEQA consultant to review and confirm whether any additional studies need to be done.
Please let me know what the next steps are to move this application forward. Obviously, we have a deadline of March 2024, so hopefully this can be accomplished in under 12 months.
Thanks,
Janna
