CONTACT INFORMATION: PHAYVANH NANTHAVONGDOUANGSY (714) 754-5611,

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council approve the 2021 and 2022 Annual Progress Report (APR) of the 2015-2035 Costa Mesa General Plan for submittal to the State Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).

BACKGROUND:

The General Plan APR provides an overview of the actions taken by the City during the 2021 and 2022 calendar years to implement the City’s General Plan programs and policies, including the City’s Housing Element.

State Land Use and Zoning Law, Government Code section 65000 et seq., requires that an annual progress report from the City’s legislative body be submitted to the State agencies identified above. The State uses the General Plan APR to identify state wide trends in land use decision -making, and how local planning and development activities relate to statewide planning goals and policies. A Housing Element APR is also required and is used by HCD to track the progress of the implementation of a jurisdiction’s Housing Element, and requires its submission as a threshold for several State Housing Funding Programs.

ANALYSIS:

The APR informs the general public of the progress in meeting community goals as expressed in the General Plan. The APR also provides information on how land use decisions that were implemented in the past year relates to General Plan adopted goals and policies.

Planning Commission Review

A staff presentation introducing the APR was provided to the Planning Commission at the June 12, 2023 Planning Commission meeting. The Draft APR was subsequently posted online on June 16, 2023, and discussed further by the Planning Commission at the June 26, 2023 Planning Commission meeting. After having an in-depth discussion regarding the intent and status of various General Plan goals, objectives and policies, as well as the Housing Element APR forms, and receiving public 295

Item #: 23-1291 Meeting Date: 07/18/2023

testimony, the Planning Commission recommended that the City Council approve the APR by a 7-0 vote. The General Plan di scussion focused mainly on the Land Use and Circulation Elements, consistency between polices, and the importance of the General Plan as a guiding document for City’s land use and community improvement decisions. Once approved for submittal to the State, all APRs are posted on the City’s website at the link below.

Annual Progress Report Summary

As summarized in the attached General Plan APR, the City continues to implement General Plan programs, has satisfied its 5 th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation obligations, and has progressed towards meeting its 6 th Cycle RHNA obligation. As required by the State, the APR specifically addresses the following:

 General Plan Implementation: The degree to which the City’s General Plan and City actions (such as ordinance adoption and capital improvement project implementation) complies with the General Plan guidelines developed and adopted by the State Office of Planning and Research pursuant to Government Code section 65040.2. (This information is included in Table 1 of the General Plan Annual Review); and,

 Housing Element Annual Progress Report: State required housing progress f orms for calendar years 2021 and 2022 have been completed by staff and are attached to the General Plan Annual Review as Attachments 3 and 4. The Housing Element APR excel form is specifically created by HCD to provide information on how the City has progressed toward meeting its RHNA allocation and implementation of Housing Element programs. It includes information on the number and types of housing development applications that the City has received, processed and permitted; as well as identifies how many residential units completed construction.

Consistency with the State OPR General Plan Guidelines
The City of Costa Mesa’s General Plan consists of seven elements that are required by State statutes and three optional elements. The seven required elements include: Land Use, Circulation, Housing, Conservation, Open Space and Recreation, Noise, and Safety. The City’s General Plan provides goals and policies that address these categories consistent with the State law. The optional elements address 296

Item #: 23-1291 Meeting Date: 07/18/2023

additional topics that are of particular local significance and include: Growth Management, Community Design, and Historic and Cultural Resources.

As shown through various City’s actions and approved projects that are summarized in the General Plan APR, the City’s General Plan remains an effective guide for orderly community growth and development, preservation and conservation of open space and natural resources, and efficient expenditure of public funds. (Note that to implement the 6th Cycle Housing Element; specifically, to accommodate the City’s RHNA allocation, future General Plan updates will be necessary to ensure that the City’s General Plan will remain internally consistent and remain an effective guiding document for orderly growth.)

BACKGROUND

On June 29, 1953, the City of Costa Mesa was incorporated as a general law city led by a City Council-Manager form of government. The City of Costa Mes a originally consisted of an area of 3.5 square miles and general population of 16,840. The City’s current estimated population is 108,829 persons, and it consists of an overall land area of 16.8 square miles (US Census 2020).

The City adopted its first General Plan in 1957 and its second General Plan in 1970. The General Plan was comprehensively amended in 1981 and again in 1992. On January 22, 2002, the City Council adopted the Costa Mesa 2000 General Plan. The 2000 General Plan recognized the community’s diverse evolution of residential neighborhoods, its regional commercial influence, and its recreational amenities.

The City completed its most recent comprehensive General Plan update (2015- 2035 General Plan) that was approved on June 21, 2016. Many of the policies were carried over from the 2000 General Plan and new policies were added in compliance with the latest State mandates and in accordance with the economic growth of the City.

This report includes the 2021 and 2022 annual review of the General Plan and Housing Element for Planning Commission and City Council review and approval as required by state law regarding the implementation of the programs and policies of the General Plan.

The purpose of this review is to provide the status of the City’s General Plan and progress in its implementation.

Table 1 provides a summary of the current status of various General Plan Elements, including the 5 th Cycle Housing
Element, adopted in 2014, and the 6th Cycle Housing Element, adopted in November 2022.

ANALYSIS

Government Code Section 65400

State Government Code Section 65400 requires that an annual progress report (APR) be made to the City’s legislative body on the status of the General Plan and progress in its implementation, including progress toward meeting its Housing Element goals and its regional housing needs allocation. The Department of Housing and Community Development updated their forms and instructions to incorporate new APR requirements, pursuant to Assembly Bill 879, Senate Bill 35, Assembly Bill 1486, Assembly Bill 101, Assembly Bill 1255 and Assembly Bill 83. This 6
th Edition of the Annual Progress Report includes the annual review for 2021 and 2022.

State Law requires the following:
• Provide by April of each year an annual report to the City Council, the Office of Planning and Research, and the Department of Housing and Community Development that includes all of the following:
(A) The status of the plan and progress in its implementation. (B) The progress in meeting its share of regional housing needs determined pursuant to Section 65584 and local efforts to remove governmental constraints to the maintenance, improvement, and development of housing. The housing element portion of the annual report shall include a section that describes the actions taken by the City of Costa Mesa towards completion of the programs and status of the local government's compliance with the deadlines in its housing element.

3. The conclusion describes the effectiveness of the 2015-2035 General Plan.

2015-2035 General Plan – Goals, Objectives, and Policies

The 2015 -2035 General Plan goals, objectives, and policies are described in a comprehensive document (attached as Appendix A).

• A goal is defined as a broad vision of what the community wants to achieve or provide to residents, landowners, business owners and tourists. It is a statement of a desired condition based on community values. Goals are general in nature and usually timeless.

• A policy is a specific statement that guides decision-making and indicates a particular course of action. A policy is based on and helps implement a goal.

General Plan Update

The State Office of Planning and Research recommends that Cities update their General Plan every 10 years. City Council approved the City’s 2015-2035 General Plan on June 21, 2016. The General Plan update is an extensive process that involves various public meetings with City commissions and Council and extensive community outreach.

As part of this update, the City was also complying with the requirements of Assembly Bill 1358 (enacted in 2008), The California Complete Streets Act that required integrating multimodal transportation network policies into the circulation elements of the general plans. The 5 th Cycle Housing Element was adopted in January 2014
and compliance was received from the State Department of Housing and Community Development for an eight- year Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) cycle that began in 2014 and ends in 2021. The 6th Cycle Housing Element was adopted in November 2022 and, in May 2023, HCD has determined that the City Housing Element meets the statutory requirements of State Housing Law.

CONCLUSION

The Costa Mesa 2015- 2035 General Plan serves as an effective guide for orderly growth and development, preservation and conservation of open space land and natural resources, and efficient expenditure of public funds.

As illustrated in Attachment 1, completed City projects such as such as, but not limited to, adopted ordinances, zoning code updates, completed street improvements, funding sources for park improvement, awarding contracts are in conformance with the General Plan’s goals, objectives, and p olicies for each respective element.

Furthermore, significant progress on various public works projects or private developments are also in accordance with the 2015-2035 General Plan. The City’s legislative bodies have used the 2015 -2035 General Plan as the primary source of long-range planning and policy direction. All future development and activities will be consistent with these goals and policies that will continue to guide growth and preserve the quality of life within the community.

Note that to implement the 6th Cycle Housing Element; specifically, to accommodate the City’s RHNA allocation, future General Plan updates will be necessary to ensure that the City’s General Plan will remain internally consistent and remain an effective guiding document for orderly growth. The future updates will also address other topics that 303

LAND USE ELEMENT
General Plan Goal, Objective, Policy Description of City Action Land Use Element Goal LU-1: A Balanced Community with a Mix of Land Uses to Meet Resident and Business Needs
Objective LU-1A: Establish and maintain a balance of land uses throughout the community to preserve the residential character of the City at a level no greater than can be supported by the infrastructure.

LU-1.1 Provide for the development of a mix and
balance of housing opportunities, commercial goods
and services, and employment opportunities in
consideration of the needs of the business and
residential segments of the community.

The Costa Mesa Municipal Code (CMMC) is updated on a
regular bases to ensure that it is consistent and implements the policies of the General Plan and various State land use mandates. The General Plan Land Use Policy Map Figure LU-3 correlates with CMMC Zoning Map to ensure a variety of
commercial, residential, and industrial uses throughout the City.

All commercial development within the City which occurs near residential development requires additional scrutiny and, in many cases, requires a higher level of discretionary approval per the City’s Zoning Code to ensure that the use does not negatively impact the residential neighborhood. The Urban Plan Overlays and the Planned Development zoning allow mixed-use development. The City is a major center for employment in Orange County and is striving to add more units to the housing stock to allow employees to live and work in the City.

2021:
• Adopted Resolution No. 2021-10 - Approved Master
Plan for 8 new single family detached homes (Planning
Application 20-10 and Tentative Tract Map No. 19120)

• Adopted Ordinance No. 2021-03

Update various sections of Title 13 of CMMC pertaining
to accessory dwelling units (ADU) and junior ADU
consistent with state law requirements and authorized
related fees. Resolution No. 2021-03, establishes park
impact fees for ADU and junior ADU.

• Adopted Ordinance No. 2021-20
Ordinance No. 2021-20 is an amendment to Costa Mesa
Municipal Code (CMMC) to update various sections of
the zoning code to resolve internal inconsistencies,
clarify intent and to conform to requirements of State
Law. The update was necessary to ensure that the City’s Zoning code effectively implements the City’s General
Plan policies. The ordinance updates definitions for
Accessory Dwelling units, Convenience Store, Mini-
market, Specialty store, finished grade, natural grade, boardinghouse (small and large). Ordinance No. 2021-
20 also updated cross references and definitions for
special use permit, reasonable accommodation as set
forth in city ordinances and federal law.

LU-1.2 Balance economic gains from new
development while preserving the character and
densities of residential neighborhoods.

LU-1.3 Strongly encourage the development of
residential uses and owner-occupied housing
(single-family detached residences, condominiums,
townhouses) where feasible to improve the balance
between rental and ownership housing
opportunities.

LU-1.4 Promote housing and employment
opportunities within planned development areas to
the extent feasible.

LU-1.5 Maintain a land use structure that strives to
balance jobs and housing with available
infrastructure and public and human services.

Land Use Element Goal LU-2: Preserve and Protect Residential Neighborhoods Objective LU-2A: Promote land use patterns and development that contribute to community and neighborhood identity.

LU-2.1 In the event of damage or destruction, allow
any legal conforming use in existence at the time of
adoption of the General Plan that is located in a
nonconforming development to be rebuilt to its
original building intensity, as long as any such
rebuilding would not increase the development's
nonconformity, and the damage or destruction was
in no way brought about by intentional acts of any
owner of such use or property.

Costa Mesa Municipal Code Title 13 Chapter X establishes requirements for nonconforming uses, developments and lots.

City policy requires all projects proposing five dwelling units or more on a project site be conditioned to underground all utility poles within the frontage. Densities in excess of maximum density allowed for by the General Plan are subject to approval of a General Plan Amendment unless the proposal includes a density bonus and provides affordable housing. All common roadways and access in common interest developments are subject to recordation of an easement. Several projects under construction in Westside Costa Mesa have replaced
underutilized industrial and commercial properties with new housing and live/work developments that also resulted in major environmental clean-up of a few sites. Commercial buildings over 30 feet are subject to Planning Commission approval and considered on a case-by-case basis. Structures in urban overlay plans are typically over 30 feet and are evaluated with respect to privacy and shade and shadow impacts. All projects with three stories or more are required to submit a shade and shadow study during evaluation of the project. Any new
development is subject to compliance with the noise standards and installation of sound walls and upgraded windows and wall assemblies to protect residents.

2021:

• Adopted Resolution No. 2021-32

Resolution of the City establishing Underground Utility District No. 22, on Adam Avenue from Albatross Drive to approximately 500 feet west of Mesa Verde Drive East.

Removal and underground installation work in the
District are anticipated to commence by Fall 2024.

LU-2.2 Pursue maximum use of utility company
funds and resources in undergrounding existing
overhead lines, and encourage undergrounding of
utilities in the public right-of-way for residential
development consisting of five units or more, to the
extent feasible and practical.

LU-2.3 Develop standards, policies, and other
methods to encourage the grouping of individual
parcels to eliminate obsolete subdivision patterns
and to provide improved living environments while
being consistent with the neighborhood character of
the surrounding community.

LU-2.4 Do not allow "rounding up" when calculating
the number of permitted residential units, except for
lots existing as of March 16, 1992, zoned R2-MD
that have less than 7,260 square feet in area, and
no less than 6,000 square feet, where density
calculation fractions of 1.65 or greater may be
rounded up to two units.

LU-2.5 Allow creation of parcels without street
frontage if sufficient easements are provided for
planned developments or common-interest
developments consistent with the neighborhood
character. This policy does not apply to small lot
subdivisions.

LU-2.6 Encourage increased private market
investment in declining or deteriorating
neighborhoods.

LU-2.7 Permit the construction of buildings over
two stories or 30 feet only when it can be shown
that the construction of such structures will not
adversely impact surrounding developments and
deprive existing land uses of adequate light, air,
privacy, and solar access.
will be limited to areas experiencing external parking
impacts from commercial areas, neighboring cities,
fairgrounds and recreational uses. All housing types
within impacted areas are eligible for permits, with one permit per driver based on verification of residence and vehicle registration.

• City-wide Parking Study Completed
307
Annual Review for 2021 and 2022 of Costa Mesa General Plan and Housing Element ( 6th Edition) Page 10

[Updated: 6/29/23]
LU-2.8 Limit building height to four stories above
grade south of the I-405 Freeway, except for special
purpose housing such as elderly, affordable, or
student housing, unless otherwise approved by a
General Plan amendment. (A four-story/five-level
parking structure with roof deck parking on the fifth
level is considered a four-story structure.)
LU-2.9 Require appropriate building setbacks,
structure orientation, and placement windows to
consider the privacy of adjacent residential
structures within the same project and on adjacent
properties.

LU-2.10 Promote lot consolidation of residential
properties to the extent feasible and practical,
including the creation of larger single-family
residential lots that exceed the minimum 6,000-
square-foot requirement in neighborhoods where
the prevailing residential subdivision pattern
features larger-sized residential lots.

LU-2.11 Ensure adequate noise attenuation in
urban design, such as walls for sound attenuation,
development of landscaped greenbelts, provision of
landscape berms, etc.

Land Use Element Goal LU-3: Development that Maintains Neighborhood Integrity and Character Objective LU-3A: Establish policies, standards, and procedures to minimize blighting influences, and maintain the integrity of stable neighborhoods.

LU-3.1 Protect existing stabilized residential
neighborhoods, including mobile home parks (and
manufactured housing parks), from the
encroachment of incompatible or potentially
disruptive land uses and/or activities.

Ongoing through the implementation and enforcement of Title 20 – Property Maintenance, of the Municipal Code. Title 20 establishes standards to ensure proper maintenance, removal of hazardous and improper storage, and removal of weeds and other public nuisances. All development applications are reviewed to ensure that they are compatible with surrounding neighborhoods. When needed, projects are conditioned to operate in a manner that is not detrimental to the surrounding area (e.g. limited hours of operation, project design, parking management, on-site/off-site improvements). All new
development proposed beyond the allowable densities is subject to submittal of a water/sewer assessment study (applicable to larger projects) and will serve letter from the utility companies or other infrastructure planning analysis. Development of mixed- use projects are encouraged through planned development and overlay zones. Staff works with property owners, brokers, and agents to help find the right type of uses to be catalyst for revitalization. This includes conducting interviews with existing businesses, organizing meetings to facilitate an exchange of information and guidance, and taking potential sites to an annual retail conference to assist in sites being redeveloped or tenant vacancies filled. Traffic impacts are evaluated with each development project with consideration to the City’s circulation element and any potential impacts to residential neighborhoods.

All two-story projects are required to submit privacy and view analysis with exhibits that show location of proposed and existing buildings. In addition, per the Residential Design Guidelines, second story additions are subject to notification of neighboring properties prior to approval. Most projects in Urban Plan areas are proposed with lot consolidation. Lot
consolidation is challenging for developers, but encouraged for LU-3.2 Actively enforce existing regulations
regarding derelict or abandoned vehicles, outdoor
storage, and substandard or illegal buildings, and
establish regulations to abate weed-filled yards
when any of the above are deemed to constitute a
health, safety, or fire hazard.

LU-3.3 Continue code enforcement as a high
priority with regard to the regulation of property
maintenance standards citywide.

LU-3.4 Ensure that residential densities can be
supported by the infrastructure and are compatible
with existing residential neighborhoods in the
surrounding area.

LU-3.5 Provide opportunities for the development
of well-planned and designed projects which,
through vertical or horizontal integration, provide for the development of compatible residential,
commercial, industrial, institutional, or public uses
within a single project or neighborhood.

LU-3.6 Facilitate revitalization of aging commercial
centers by working with property owners,
developers, local businesses, and other community
organizations to coordinate efforts.

LU-3.7 Promote development/design flexibility that
encourages older or poorly maintained high-density
residential uses to be rehabilitated.

Description of City Action
CD-8.4 Ensure that common areas, walkways, driveways,
and parking spaces be landscaped consistent with
landscaping standards contained in the Planning, Zoning, and Development Code. Utilize landscaping to provide
project amenities for new and remodeled commercial
uses, and to screen parking and equipment areas.

Landscaped areas generally should incorporate planting
utilizing a three-tiered system: 1) grasses and ground
covers, 2) shrubs and vines, and 3) trees.

CD-8.5 Ensure that site access, parking, and circulation for commercial uses are designed in a logical, safe
manner. Parking should not dominate the site in areas
adjacent to street, and should be well landscaped with a clear hierarchy of circulation. Wherever possible, parking lots should be divided into a series of connected smaller lots utilizing walkways and raised landscape strips.

Parking lots should also include landscaping that accents the importance of driveways from the street, frames the major circulation aisles, and highlights pedestrian
pathways.

CD-8.6 Require that areas for outside equipment, trash
receptacles, storage, and loading areas be located in the least conspicuous part of the site. Utility and mechanical equipment (e.g. electric and gas meters, electrical panels, and junction boxes) should be concealed from view from
public streets, neighboring properties, and nearby higher buildings. Trash enclosures should be architecturally
compatible with the project. Landscaping should be
incorporated into the design of trash enclosures to deter graffiti.

CD-8.7 Encourage decorative paving treatments to be
incorporated throughout commercial developments,
including driveway entries, pedestrian walkways, plazas, and other areas. The design, materials, and colors of
decorative paving treatments (e.g., stamped concrete,
stone, brick or granite pavers, exposed aggregate, or
colored concrete) should complement the architectural
style of the primary buildings and make a positive
contribution to the aesthetic and function of the site.

CD-8.8 Require that exterior lighting on commercial
properties be consistent with the architectural style of the commercial building. On each commercial site, all lighting fixtures should be from the same family of fixtures with respect to design, materials, color, fixture, and color of light. Lighting sources should be shielded, diffused or indirect to avoid spillover on adjacent properties, nighttime sky light pollution, and glare to pedestrians and motorists.

To minimize the total number of freestanding light
standards, wall-mounted and pathway lights should be
utilized to the greatest extent possible.

Objective CD-8B: Preserve the scale and character of established neighborhoods near commercial uses. 358

CD-8.9 Ensure that new commercial development utilize
site planning and design features that optimize
compatibility with adjacent residential neighborhoods. The following guidance should be considered:

When adjacent residential and nonresidential uses can
mutually benefit from connection, appropriate linkages
(e.g., walkways, common landscape areas, and building
orientation) are encouraged. Successful interaction
between commercial and residential uses may be
achieved through adequate setbacks, landscape buffers,
screening, decorative masonry walls, berms, building
orientation, and limitations of commercial activities.

Loading areas, access and circulation driveways, trash
and storage areas, and rooftop equipment should be
located as far as possible from adjacent residences.

Building orientation and landscaping of commercial
buildings should minimize direct lines of sight into adjacent residential private open space.

Development Services staff reviews commercial projects
in consideration of scale and character of established
neighborhoods near commercial uses. This includes
suggesting where appropriate site uses should be located to avoid impacts to adjacent residential development.

Community Design Element Goal CD-9: Mixed Use
Objective CD-9A: Design mixed use development projects to achieve a high-quality character.

CD-9.1 Require that mixed-use development projects be

recreational facilities to serve residents in mixed-use development projects. Design parking and other areas to acknowledge different users (residents versus shoppers) and to be compatible with the architectural character of the building(s).

Objective CD-9B: Provide for the development of projects that integrate housing with commercial uses and other compatible uses.

CD-9.3 Encourage mixed-use development along the east
side of Newport Boulevard between Mesa Drive and
Walnut Street. Establish incentives for the development of projects in planned development zones that integrate
housing with retail and office uses.

The City encourages mixed use developments through
the City’s approved Plans including: the 19 West Urban
Plan, the Mesa West Residential Ownership Urban Plan,
the Mesa West Bluffs Urban Plan, which allow for mixed
used development along the main commercial corridors.

CD-9.4 Encourage the development of mixed-use urban
villages along specified areas of West 17th Street, West 19th Street, and Superior Avenue that integrates

• Building modulation indentations and architectural
details
• Building entry accentuation
• Screening of equipment and storage areas
• Landscaping to soften building exteriors and to serve as a buffer between uses
Staff works with applicants to encourage compatible
design, both visually and physically, and encourages the adaptive reuse of existing structures. In addition, standard conditions of approval for industrial projects ensure
sufficient landscaping for the size and scale of adjacent buildings as well as minimal visual impacts and light
spillover onto surrounding properties.

CD-10.2 Encourage that the design of industrial
buildings considers the visual and physical relationship to adjacent uses. An industrial structure which dominates its surrounding environment by its relative size shall generally be discouraged.

CD-10.3 Encourage adaptive reuse of existing
industrial structures which results in rehabilitated buildings with distinctive and attractive architecture.

CD-10.4 Promote the use of materials and colors
that produce diversity and visual interest in industrial buildings. The use of various siding materials (i.e.,
masonry, concrete texturing, cement, or plaster) can
produce effects of texture and relief that provide
architectural interest.

CD-10.5 Require that landscaping be used to
define areas such as entrances to industrial buildings and parking lots; define the edges of developments; provide transition between neighboring properties; and provide
screening for outdoor storage, loading, and equipment
areas. Landscaping should be in scale with adjacent
buildings and be of an appropriate size at maturity to
accomplish its intended purpose.

CD-10.6 Require that the design of lighting fixtures
and their structural support be of a scale and architectural design compatible with on-site industrial buildings. Large areas should be illuminated to minimize the visual impact and amount of spillover light onto surrounding projects.

Objective CD-10B: Ensure that the development of industrial projects are positive additions to the City’s community setting and do not result in adverse impacts with adjacent uses.

CD-10.7 Require industrial projects to incorporate
landscape setbacks, screening walls, and/or other
elements that mitigate negative impacts with adjacent
uses.

Development Services staff ensures through project
applicant meetings and site plan review that appropriate landscaping, screening and other elements are utilized to ensure compatibility.
