INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
To: Lisa L. Kim From: Niki Wetzel
Dept: City Manager Dept: Community Development
Date: 2/13/2024
Subject: Rejection of bids received for the CDD-002 Civic Center Revitalization Project Plan Review/Inspections. (Action Item)
OBJECTIVE
For the City Council to reject the proposals received for CDD-002 Civic Center Revitalization Project Plan Review/Inspections pursuant to Section 5.6, Rejection of Formal Bids, of the City of Garden Grove Purchasing Policy and Procedure Manual.
BACKGROUND
The Community Development Department Building & Safety Division solicited bids for third party contractual services for plan review and inspection services of the Civic Center Revitalization Project.
DISCUSSION
In November 2023, specifications were prepared and submitted to Planet Bids. In response to the prescribed bidding procedure, three (3) proposals were received in December 2023 by Scott Fazekas & Associates, Inc., CSG Consultants, Inc., and Bureau Veritas, Inc. After review of proposals, it was apparent that all submittals were made by companies that have current agreements with the City. Therefore, no separate agreement is needed to secure plan review and inspection services for the Civic Center Revitalization Project.
In review of agreement budgets, it appears that costs for plan review can be absorbed by current agreements. Staff will assess its ability to absorb inspection services by existing agreements once project construction is underway and only request City Council authorization for additional agreement budget if needed.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no financial impact to the General Fund.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:
Reject the bids received on Thursday, December 21, 2023, for CDD-002 Civic Center Revitalization Project Plan Review/Inspections.

INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
To: Lisa L. Kim From: Laura Stover
Dept: City Manager Dept: Human Resources
Date: 2/13/2024
Subject: Adoption of a Resolution approving the recommended salary adjustments resulting from the Part-time Equity Study. (Action Item)
OBJECTIVE
To obtain City Council approval to adopt the recommended salary adjustments resulting from the Part-time Equity Study.
BACKGROUND
Effective January 1, 2024, the State hourly minimum wage increased from $15.50 per hour to $16.00 per hour, due to the Director of the California Department of Finance having certified that based on the annual inflation rate from FY22/23, the State hourly minimum wage must increase in accordance with the Labor Code section 1182.12(c)(3)(A). Additionally, Governor Newsom signed a new law raising the minimum wage for fast food workers to $20.00 per hour which goes into effect April 1, 2024.
The City’s part-time hourly wages are currently equal to the State minimum wage, and historically, the hourly wages for these part-time classifications have been above the minimum wage. City departments with positions affected by this minimum wage increase have expressed increasing concern regarding the City’s ability to attract qualified candidates when competing cities, community organizations, and private companies offer wages far exceeding the minimum wage.
As a result, the City gathered and analyzed data on the City’s part-time classifications from the City’s ten (10) comparator cities, which include Anaheim, Buena Park, Costa Mesa, Fullerton, Huntington Beach, Irvine, Newport Beach, Orange, Santa Ana, and Westminster.
DISCUSSION
An external and internal survey was conducted to determine the appropriate wages for part-time classifications to be competitive with other agencies and maintain 9
internal alignment within the organization. The pay rates for Garden Grove parttime classifications were compared with the median pay rates of the comparator agencies. Based upon the analysis, the classifications that would be impacted are:
Recreation Leader, Recreation Specialist, Senior Recreation Specialist, Intern, Police Cadet, Police Office Aide, Police Recruit, Reserve Police Officer, and Reserve Technical Officer. The results of the salary study show that the hourly wages for the part-time classifications are below the median wages for comparable classifications.
The classifications of Recreation Leader, Police Cadet, and Police Office Aide are directly impacted by the change in minimum wage. These classifications are currently at Range O251 with only a one step salary of $16.00 per hour. To remain competitive with comparator cities, it is recommended to return Range O251 to a five-step salary range and increase the starting wage by $1.00 per hour, resulting in a range from $17.00 to $19.00 per hour.
Consequently, adjustments are required for the other part-time classifications to maintain internal alignment within and across job families. For Recreation Specialist, it is recommended to return Range O252 from a one-step salary range to a five-step salary range and increase the starting wage by $1.00 per hour, resulting in a range from $18.50 to $20.50 per hour. For Senior Recreation Specialist, it is recommended to reallocate the salary range from E101 to E106 to address compaction issues with the lower Recreation Leader and Recreation Specialist classifications.
Additionally, it is recommended for the classification of Intern receive a salary adjustment by returning the salary range O018 from a one-step salary range to a five-step salary range and increasing the starting hourly wage by $3.70 per hour, resulting in a range from $22.00 to $26.00 per hour. This salary adjustment will bring the hourly rate to the median, and maintain the internal salary structure that reflects the relative duties and responsibilities, requisite knowledge and skills, and educational requirements of the Intern classification.
Within the part-time Police series, Garden Grove’s hourly wages are below the median. For the benchmark classification of Police Recruit, it is recommended to increase the starting wage by $4.30 to bring it to the median and make it more competitive with other cities. Consequently, classifications in the Reserve Officer series require a salary adjustment to bring it closer to the median hourly wage and maintain alignment within this series. Therefore the classifications of Reserve Police Officer and Reserve Technical Officer are recommended to receive a salary adjustment consistent with the increase for Police Recruit and establish a consistent incremental $1.10 hourly increase between each step within their respective salary ranges.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
10
The City currently employs approximately 118 part-time employees who will be impacted by the recommended salary adjustments. It is recommended that the salary adjustments be effective May 11, 2024 to coincide with the start of the Summer Recreation programs, which employs most of the part-time employees affected by these changes.
The Finance Department, using the fully-burdened rate, has calculated the cost of these salary adjustments to be approximately $90,000 for fiscal year 2023-24. No additional appropriation is needed for FY 2023-24 as the additional costs will be absorbed in each department’s operating budget. The annual cost for these salary adjustments is approximately $600,000. The necessary appropriations will be included in the amended FY 2024-25 budget.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:
Adopt the attached Part-time Resolution that amends the hourly rates for Intern, Recreation Leader, Recreation Specialist, Police Cadet, Police Office Aide, Police Recruit, Reserve Police Officer, and Reserve Technical Officer, effective May 11, 2024.
Adopt the Resolution to approve the revised Salary Schedule, effective May 11, 2024.
Adopt the Resolution amending the Orange County Employee’s Association’s Memorandum of Understanding, which reallocates the salary range for the Senior Recreation Specialist classification, effective May 11, 2024. Direct the Human Resources Director to revise the classification specification of Senior Recreation Specialist in accordance with the approved recommendations of the Part-time Equity Study.

INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
To: Lisa L. Kim From: Niki Wetzel
Dept: City Manager Dept: Community Development
Date: 2/13/2024
Subject: Authorization for the California Automated Permit Processing Program (CalAPP) grant program agreement and appropriation of funds for program implementation; and award a contract to Symbium, LLC to provide online automated solar permitting software. (Grant Amount: $80,000) (Action Item)
OBJECTIVE
To approve the California Automated Permit Processing Program (CalAPP), License Agreement for Symbium, LLC, and approve the appropriation of grant funds awarded in FY 2023-24 for contractual services for software integration and program implementation activities.
BACKGROUND
In 2022, Senate Bill No. 379 mandated California cities and counties to implement an online, automated permitting platform for residential solar energy systems.
Compliance with SB379 necessitates real-time code verification and permit issuance.
In 2023, the City’s Building & Safety Division submitted an application for the California Energy Commission (CEC) grant with funds authorized under the California Automated Permit Processing Program (CalAPP). The program provides support for local agencies in California to assist with the establishment of online, automated solar permitting. The total amount awarded to the City of Garden Grove is $80,000 with the anticipated project completion date by May 2024.
DISCUSSION
The awarded funds will focus on streamlining solar permits by allowing residents, contractors, and developers to obtain same day solar permits. This will allow the Building & Safety division to continue to provide the expected level of customer service. This program will be administered by the Community Development Department. CalAPP identified two (2) software vendors approved by the CEC to meet the program goals; however, Symbium, LLC is the sole vendor capable of providing services compatible with the City’s existing permitting system, GGReady, 63
and will meet the City’s integration criteria and needs. All sole sourcing requirements have been approved by the Purchasing Division and are in compliance with the Municipal Code.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no impact to the General Fund. Contractual services will be funded by the California Automated Permit Processing Program (CalAPP) – Solar Grant.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:
Authorize participation in the California Automated Permit Processing Program (CalAPP) grant program and agreement;
Award a contract to Symbium, LLC, in the amount not to exceed $60,000 to provide online, automated solar permitting software; and Approve appropriation of funds in the amount of $80,000 for FY 2023-24, (GL233-212-1000, JLGT1407000); and
Authorize the City Manager, or her designees to execute the contract, and to enter into additional amendments as needed, and make minor modifications as appropriate thereto, on behalf of the City.

All Solutions shall be hosted on Symbium’s designated servers at all times and Symbium will retain control over all user experience or user interface design of Solutions.

No part of the Symbium IP may be altered, copied, photocopied, reproduced, translated or reduced to any electronic medium or machine-readable form, in whole or in part, except as specifically provided in this Agreement.

Symbium shall retain ownership and title of any Solutions that it creates, even if created on a custom basis for Licensee.
7.2. Licensee Data and Symbium Data. As between Symbium and Licensee, Licensee shall, at all times, own or obtain the appropriate permissions to use the Licensee Data and shall be responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of any and all Licensee Data as well as establishing any required legal terms and conditions prior to the use of any Licensee Data. Licensee shall obtain all prior consents, internally or from relevant third parties, prior to uploading and using any Licensee Data to the Solutions. Licensee grants to Symbium a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license during the Term to access and use the Licensee Data for the purpose of delivering the Services, which may include the aggregation of such data in an anonymized manner for benchmarking and other purposes. Symbium’s right to use Symbium Data shall be governed by its own policies, including its Privacy Policy, available at https://symbium.com/privacy (“Privacy Policy”). 67 SYMBIUM CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY Page 4 of 10
v1.4-792023

8. FEES AND PAYMENTS
8.1. Fees. Licensee shall pay Symbium for the Services provided by Symbium hereunder as specified in the applicable Order.
8.2. Payment Methods. Symbium accepts payments for its Services via check or electronic funds transfer and will cooperate, in good faith, to accommodate Licensee’s preference in either case.
8.3. Payment Terms. All pricing and payments are and shall be in U.S. dollars. Licensee shall pay each invoice as stated in the Order or, if no due date is stated, within 30 days of receipt unless it has a bona fide dispute with respect to payment of such invoice or portion thereof. If there is a bona fide dispute regarding any invoice rendered or amount paid, the disputing Party shall notify the other by written notice thereof, and the Parties shall use their best efforts to resolve such dispute expeditiously. If an aggrieved Party notifies the other in writing of a disputed invoice or payment, and there is a good faith basis for such dispute, the time for paying the portion of the invoice in dispute shall be extended by a period of time equal to the time between receipt of such notice and the resolution of such dispute. Undisputed portions of any invoice shall be paid as stated above.
8.4. Payment Processing Fees. Fees charged to End-Users for Symbium’s Transaction Services are nonrefundable.

As applicable, Symbium may pass through to End-Users any credit card processing fees charged by either of Symbium’s or Licensee’s payment processor (I.e., in cases where the Licensee charges $100 + $5 credit card processing fee for a total of $105, Symbium may pass through the $5 additional Licensee processing fee directly to the End-User.).
8.5. Taxes. Licensee shall be financially responsible for all sales or services taxes that are assessed on the provision of the Services to Licensee, excluding any withholding or export taxes or taxes based upon Symbium’s income.
To the extent Symbium is required to collect such taxes under applicable Law, Symbium, to the extent legally or otherwise required, shall separately state the amount of tax due on its invoices to Licensee. Licensee and Symbium shall cooperate to segregate the fees into: (i) those for taxable Services and (ii) those for nontaxable Services. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other to more accurately determine each Party’s tax liability and to minimize such liability, to the extent legally permissible. In addition, Symbium shall provide and make available to Licensee any information regarding the computation of any such taxes as reasonably requested by Licensee. Symbium shall not pay any taxes based on the Services that Licensee and Symbium disagree on as to whether a tax is due without affording Licensee a reasonable amount of time after being called upon by the taxing authority to pay such tax to dispute the payment of such tax, at Licensee’s expense, in the appropriate legal forum.
9. CONFIDENTIALITY
9.1. Confidentiality. Except as set forth in Sections 9.2 and 9.3, as applicable, Each Party agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the other Party’s Confidential Information as defined herein. “Confidential Information” means all information concerning a Party’s business not generally known to the public, whether or not marked as confidential. By way of illustration only, Confidential Information may include Licensee Data, trade secrets, know-how, inventions, contractual disclosures, techniques, processes, algorithms, software programs, schematics, software source documents, 68 SYMBIUM CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY Page 5 of 10
v1.4-792023
contracts, customer lists, financial information, sales and marketing plans, information and business plans and other proprietary information, whether or not such information is marked as confidential. Confidential Information shall not include, even if it is marked as such, information that: (i) is already known to the receiving Party at the time of disclosure, which knowledge the receiving Party shall have the burden of proving; (ii) is, or, through no act or failure to act of the receiving Party, becomes publicly known; (iii) is readily observable and / or duplicable by the public; (iv) is legally received by receiving Party from a third party without restriction on disclosure; (v) is independently developed by receiving Party without reference to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party; or (vi) is approved for release by written authorization of the disclosing Party. In maintaining the confidentiality of the other Party’s Confidential Information, each Party shall use at least the same standard that Party uses for its own confidential information of similar type, and shall take necessary precautions not to disclose such information to any person except its officers, employees or subcontractors, who have a need to know in order to comply with the obligations of this Agreement. Each Party’s officers, employees, and subcontractors shall be bound by the terms of this Section or a similar written agreement with terms no less protective of either Party’s Confidential Information than this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges that any actual or threatened violation of this Section may cause irreparable, non-monetary injury to the disclosing Party, the extent of which may be difficult to ascertain, and therefore agrees that the disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief in addition to all other remedies available at law and/or in equity. Nothing in this Section shall prohibit Symbium from disseminating aggregated information that contains no Confidential Information of Licensee.
9.2. Public Agency Exceptions and CPRA. This Section 9.2 shall apply to any Licensee that is a public agency subject to the disclosure requirements of the California Public Records Act (“CPRA”) or substantially similar requirements (the “Public Agency Exceptions”). Notwithstanding any other obligations set forth in Section 9, Licensee is not obligated to act in any way that is contrary to any requirements under the CPRA or Public Agency Exceptions. Symbium shall identify information that is protected under the CPRA or Public Agency Exceptions and shall clearly mark such information as “CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY”, including identification of the specific lines containing such confidential and proprietary information subject to nondisclosure. In the event of a request for such information, Licensee will provide written notice to Symbium prior to such disclosure. For information that Symbium wishes to protect from public disclosure, Symbium must obtain a protective order, injunctive relief or other appropriate remedy from a court of law in either San Francisco County or the Licensee’s County before the Licensee is required to respond to the CPRA request. If Symbium fails to obtain such remedy within the time the Licensee is required to respond to the CPRA or Public Agency Exceptions request, Licensee may disclose the requested information.
9.3. Cooperation. In the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure or loss of any Confidential Information of the disclosing Party, the receiving Party shall promptly, at its own expense: (i) notify the disclosing Party in writing; (ii) take such actions as may be necessary or reasonably requested by the disclosing Party to minimize the violation or the damage resulting therefrom; and (iii) cooperate in all reasonable respects with the disclosing Party to minimize the violation and any damage resulting therefrom.
9.4. Limitation. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, Symbium may disclose Licensee’s Confidential Information, which includes personally identifying information and End-user activity: (i) in accordance with a judicial or other governmental subpoena, warrant or order; provided that Symbium shall comply with any applicable protective order or equivalent and, unless prohibited by law, Symbium will employ commercially reasonable efforts to provide Licensee with prior written notice, so that Licensee has an opportunity to intervene at its own expense and to protect the confidentiality of its information; (ii) to law enforcement officials and regulators if it reasonably suspects unlawful activity; and (iii) to other Parties that are identified by Licensee for that purpose.
10. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
10.1. Power and Authorization.

v1.4-792023
10.3. By Licensee. Licensee hereby represents, warrants, and covenants to Symbium that: (i) it has obtained all the appropriate consents required by law to ensure that Licensee and Symbium have the right to use the Licensee Data in association with the Services and, if applicable, as described in Symbium’s Privacy Policy; and (ii) it will not use the Service to collect, upload, retrieve, transmit, send, and/or store any sensitive personally identifiable information in violation of any applicable laws. Symbium reserves the right to delete any Licensee Data that is in violation of any terms in this Agreement or of any applicable laws.
10.4. Disclaimer of Additional Warranties. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS AND, UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, SYMBIUM
EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS, ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SYMBIUM MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ABOUT FUTURE PRODUCT FEATURES OR FUNCTIONALITY.
11. INDEMNITIES
11.1. General Indemnities. Each Party (“Indemnifying Party”) shall defend, indemnify and hold the other Party (“Indemnified Party”) and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, successors, and assigns harmless from and against any and all damages, losses, fines, penalties, costs, and other amounts (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) arising from or in connection with any actual judicial causes of actions by third parties (each a “Claim”) to the extent such Claim is based on or arises from or relates to (i) any breach or default of any provision of this Agreement by the Indemnifying Party; or (ii) negligent or intentional acts or omissions caused by the Indemnifying Party or its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, successors and assigns. Further, Licensee shall defend, indemnify, and hold Symbium harmless from any Losses arising from or in connection with any Claims to the extent that such Claim is based on or arises from or relates to Licensee’s misappropriation or misuse of any Licensee Data or any of Licensee’s obligations to third parties relating to such Licensee Data. Notwithstanding any Symbium obligations to indemnify Licensee in this Agreement, any indemnification by Symbium shall be limited to the actual amount covered by Symbium’s insurance for that particular Claim.
11.2. Indemnification Procedure. Each Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with prompt written Notice of any Claim for which the Indemnified Party is seeking or may seek indemnification hereunder (provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to promptly notify the indemnifying Party hereunder shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability with respect to the Claim, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of the Claim is prejudiced by such failure). The Indemnified Party shall provide reasonable cooperation (at the Indemnifying Party’s expense) and retain full authority to defend or settle the Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully informed concerning the status of any litigation, negotiations or settlements of any such Claim. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in any such litigation, negotiations and settlements with counsel of its own choosing. The Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to settle any Claim if such settlement arises from or is part of any criminal action or proceeding, or contains a stipulation to, or an admission or acknowledgement of, any wrongdoing (whether in tort or otherwise) on the part of the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of such Indemnified Party.
12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
12.1. THE LIABILITY OF SYMBIUM AND LICENSEE TO EACH OTHER FOR ANY AND ALL
CAUSE(S) OF ACTION, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION (INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT,
NEGLIGENCE OR ANY OTHER), ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM THE PERFORMANCE OR BREACH
OF THIS AGREEMENT WILL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE AVERAGE MONTHLY FEES CONVERTED TO AN ANNUALIZED BASIS. LICENSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF THIS SECTION 12.1
IS TO ALLOCATE THE RISKS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND LIMIT POTENTIAL
LIABILITY GIVEN THE FEES, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER IF SYMBIUM WERE TO ASSUME ANY FURTHER LIABILITY OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH HEREIN. SYMBIUM HAS RELIED ON
THESE LIMITATIONS IN DETERMINING WHETHER TO PROVIDE LICENSEE WITH THE RIGHTS TO ACCESS AND USE THE SERVICES PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT.
12.2. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR
ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FROM

The Parties shall cooperate with each other with respect to the resolution of such complaints. For the avoidance of doubt, the Party against whom the complaint was made shall control the response to any regulatory body, if any, with respect to any such complaint.
14. TERM AND TERMINATION
14.1. Term. The initial term of this Agreement shall be as set forth in the applicable Order (“Initial Term”) and shall thereafter be renewed by the Parties for recurring one (1) year periods (“Subsequent Term”) unless either Party provides the other Party with at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of termination or intention not to renew prior to the commencement of the next annual period. The Initial Term and Subsequent Term may collectively be referred to as the “Term”. Notwithstanding the automatic extensions, Licensee may terminate this Agreement for convenience upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Symbium. In the event of early termination, fees shall be prorated based on a thirty-day month basis.
14.2. Termination for Breach. Either Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other Party if such other Party commits a material breach of this Agreement and does not cure such breach within fifteen (15) days following its receipt of notice thereof from the terminating Party. No refunds shall be issued to Licensee in the event of termination under this Section 14.2 by Symbium for an uncured material breach by Licensee.

14.3. Suspension of Services. Any unauthorized access, use of passwords or Services, or other abuse or impermissible activity on Symbium’s Site or in connection with Symbium’s Services may result in immediate suspension of access to certain Solutions or termination of this Agreement with no refund and without limitation of any other available legal remedies. Symbium may suspend Licensee’s access to any Services until all overdue payments are paid in full.
Delinquent invoices are subject to interest of one percent (1.0%) per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is less, plus all expenses of collection.

Licensee acknowledges and agrees that, unless otherwise required in this Agreement, Symbium has no obligation to retain any data on behalf of Licensee and that such data, if any, may be irretrievably deleted upon termination of this Agreement.
14.4. Remedies Not Limiting. The remedies provided in this Section 14 are in no way limiting of one another or of any other rights and remedies granted to either Party under this Agreement.

Any assignment, transfer or delegation of rights or obligations hereunder in contravention of this Section shall be null and void. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
15.3. Dispute Resolution; Equitable Relief. The Parties agree that, in the event of a dispute or alleged breach, they shall first work together in good faith to resolve the matter internally through negotiations and, if necessary, by escalating it to higher levels of management. The foregoing shall not apply to, and shall not prevent a Party from seeking immediate relief in the event of, disputes involving the confidentiality or data protection provisions of this Agreement or infringement of intellectual property rights (in which case either Party shall be free to seek available remedies in a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the Governing Law Section of this Agreement).
15.4. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous representations, discussion, negotiations, letters, proposals agreements and understandings between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only in a writing duly executed by an authorized representative of each of Licensee and Symbium.
15.5. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to its conflict of laws provisions. For any disputes that are not resolved by way of good faith negotiations and settlement, the Parties hereby consent to the exclusive venue and jurisdiction for actions concerning or relating to this Agreement in the federal or state courts of San Francisco, County of San Francisco, California.
15.6. Headings. The section headings in this Agreement are for reference and convenience only and do not explain, modify, interpret, or expand the provisions of this Agreement.
15.7. Independent Contractors. In making and performing under this Agreement, the Parties are acting and shall act as independent contractors and not that of master and servant or partnership. Neither Party is, nor will be deemed to be, an agent, legal representative, joint venture, or partner of the other Party for any purpose. Neither Party shall have any authority to act for or to bind the other Party in any respect, nor shall either Party hold itself out as having such authority.
Each Party agrees to assume complete responsibility for its own employees with regard to federal or state employer’s liability, worker’s compensation, social security, unemployment insurance, and Occupational Safety and Health Administration requirements, and other laws.
15.8. Severability. If any of the provisions of this Agreement are declared to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provisions shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability while the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect.
15.9. Waiver. No term or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed waived and no breach excused, unless such waiver or consent is in writing and signed on behalf of the Party against whom it is asserted. Any consent by any Party to, or waiver of, a breach of the other, whether express or implied, shall not constitute a consent to, waiver of, or excuse for any continuing, different, or subsequent breach of this Agreement by such Party.
15.10. Survival. The provisions of this Agreement, which by their nature survive expiration or termination of this Agreement, shall survive, including, but not limited to the following Sections: 7 (Proprietary Rights), 9 (Confidentiality), 10 (Representations and Warranties), 11 (Indemnities), and 12 (Limitation of Liability).
15.11. Controlling Document. Notwithstanding any inconsistent or additional terms and conditions which may be contained in a purchase order, invoice, voucher or other similar document issued by either Party, such document shall be for issuing Party’s internal purposes only and the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail. Therefore, even if such document is acknowledged or accepted by the receiving Party and regardless of any statement to the contrary which may be contained therein, the inconsistent or additional terms and conditions of such purchase order, invoice, voucher or other similar document shall have no force or effect on this Agreement.
15.12. Interpretation; Construction. Unless the context of this Agreement clearly requires otherwise, (i) references to the plural include the singular, the singular the plural, the part the whole, (ii) references to any gender include all genders, (iii) “or” has the inclusive meaning frequently identified with the phrase “and/or,” (iv) “including” has the inclusive 72 SYMBIUM CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY Page 9 of 10
v1.4-792023
meaning frequently identified with the phrase “but not limited to,” and (v) references to “hereunder” or “herein” relate to this Agreement.

INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
To: Lisa L. Kim From: Amir El-Farra
Dept: City Manager Dept: Police
Date: 2/13/2024
Subject: Receive and file the current adopted Military Equipment Use Policy, and direct staff to move forward with an amendment to the Policy. (Action Item)
OBJECTIVE
To receive and file a proposed revised Military Equipment Use Policy drafted for the Garden Grove Police Department (“Department”), and to direct staff to post the proposed policy on the Department’s website and add an agenda item for a future public hearing before the City Council which is at least thirty (30) days from today’s date for consideration of adoption of an ordinance approving the proposed policy.
BACKGROUND
Effective January 1, 2022, California Assembly Bill 481 added Chapter 12.8 (commencing with Section 7070) to Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code.
These provisions require law enforcement agencies to obtain the approval of their respective governing bodies, by adoption of a military equipment use policy (via ordinance), prior to use of any equipment defined by the Government Code as “military equipment.”
On June 14, 2022, the Council adopted Ordinance No. 2935 approving the Department’s initial Military Equipment Use Policy. On October 24, 2023, the Department provided Council with an annual Military Equipment Use report and a proposed revised Military Equipment Use Policy. On November 14, 2023, Council approved Ordinance No. 2944, which approved Department Policy 706.
In adopting Ordinance No. 2944, Council, in part, approved the Department’s continued use of Sig Sauer MCX rifles. The Sig Sauer MCX rifles are used by the GGPD SWAT team. The Department has encountered various issues related to the design and capabilities of the Sig Sauer MCX rifles. The most significant challenges are related to their weight, length, gas blowback, and limitations in training use. As a result, the Department wishes to acquire new rifles which align better with the Department’s mission profile and tactics compared to the current Sig Sauer MCX 86
platform. Throughout the research and testing phase, the Department’s objective has been to make a transition without incurring any out-of-pocket expenses. After careful evaluation, the Department has concluded that the Geissele Super Duty AR15 is the most suitable choice for the Department’s needs, offering the best fit at an affordable price point. The acquisition of the new Geissele Super Duty AR-15 will eliminate the issues encountered with respect to the Sig Sauer MCX rifles, enhancing the team's operational effectiveness.
Before the Department acquires any new “military equipment,” it must first obtain approval from Council. Because acquisition of the Geissele Super Duty AR-15 rifles would occur prior to the Council’s required annual “re-approval” of the Department’s Military Equipment Use Policy, the Department must Obtain Council approval to replace the rifles currently in use with their proposed replacements.
DISCUSSION
Government Code section 7071(a)(1) provides that prior to acquiring any military equipment (as that term is defined by Government Code section 7070), the Department must obtain Council approval, via adoption of an ordinance, of a military equipment use policy. The process defined by section 7071 requires the Department to submit a proposed military equipment use policy to the City Council and to post that policy on the Department’s website for a period of at least 30 days prior to any public hearing by the City Council regarding the policy. Government Code section 7071(c) requires the City Council to consider any proposed military equipment use policy as an agenda item for an open session of a regular meeting and to provide for public comment regarding the policy. The same process applies to annual reapproval of the Department’s Military Use policy, as well as to any interim changes to the policy.
The revised policy being proposed by the Department is substantively identical to Policy 706 which was approved by Council on November 14, 2023, with its adoption of Ordinance No. 2944. The only change being proposed is the removal of the Sig Sauer MCX rifles, and addition of Geissele Super Duty AR-15 rifles for use by the GGPD SWAT team.
Because the Government Code requires that any proposed military equipment use policy be posted on the Department’s website for at least 30 days prior to any public hearing, the City Council is not being asked to consider the revised policy itself at this time. Instead, the policy is simply being submitted to Council as required by the Government Code such that the Council can consider whether or not to adopt the policy at a later regular meeting.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
87
With respect to the acquisition of the rifles themselves, there will be no cost to the City. ProForce, a current vendor utilized by the Department, has agreed to purchase the old Sig Sauer MCX rifles along with additional non utilized SWAT gear, in return for the Geissele Super Duty AR-15’s. Further, there is only minimal financial impact associated with posting the proposed military equipment use policy on the Department’s website.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:
Receive and file the attached draft Military Equipment Use Policy; Direct staff to post the attached draft Military Equipment use Policy on the Department’s website pending further consideration of the policy by the City Council; and
Direct Staff to add an agenda item for public hearing that is at least thirty (30) days from today’s date to consideration adoption of an ordinance approving the draft Military Equipment Use Policy.

MATTERS FROM THE MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS, AND CITY MANAGER In response to speakers under Oral Communications, Council Member Brietigam recommended that the City’s Traffic Engineer look at ways to mitigate the traffic issues on West Street, as well as other streets that have been impacted by the installation of bike lanes, and to come up with a plan for better traffic flow. He also recommended that residents looking for the City to install street lighting to contact Public Works, and stated there is a process that begins with neighbors who want street lighting installed to submit a petition to the Public Works Department. He congratulated Council Member Cindy Tran as the new Mayor Pro Tem, he wished his wife Lisa, a Happy Belated Birthday, and wished everyone a joyous holiday season.
Council Member O’Neill wished everyone a safe and sane Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Mayor Pro Tem Tran thanked the City Council for their vote to appoint her as “Mayor Pro Tem” and she expressed her commitment to the residents and commented that she does take time to learn and to question staff, be familiar with city departments and has participated in a ride-along with the Police Department.
Further, she thanked her friends, family, and youth groups who attended the Fight 120
-9- 12/12/23
Hunger Event, where 30,000 meals were made and donated to the Orange County Food Bank. She noted that staff came up with a way for residents to submit pictures of their exterior holiday lights to be posted on a Holiday Light Gallery on the City’s website, and she encouraged residents to participate.
Council Member DoVinh credited City staff and the City Attorney on their work securing the building on the corner of Garden Grove Boulevard and Euclid Street noting this acquisition is a cause for celebration that will soon have tenants. He noted his attendance at the recent Christmas Tree Lighting Event and encouraged residents to view the event via a link posted on the City’s website. He congratulated Council Member Tran on being selected as Mayor Pro Tem and stated she will serve the City well in her role. He thanked CalCities for his appointment to the Public Works, Communications, and Transportation Policy Committee. He expressed his appreciation for the meeting briefings he receives from staff, as it helps the council to make informed decisions. He recognized staff on the certification for the Housing Element, which is a legal requirement for the City to adopt a Housing Element that is a critical piece in the City’s General Plan. He concluded his comments by wishing everyone happy holidays.
In response to the speaker under oral communications regarding the bike lanes, Council Member Klopfenstein noted that she has received emails from people who are happy and/or unhappy with the bike lanes. She has consulted with staff on how to mitigate the traffic issues with bike lanes and that this is a work in progress that will ultimately be resolved. In response to the speakers from District 5 regarding a need for street lighting, she stated that she will be proactive on working with staff on communicating the process for street lighting. She thanked the residents who came to tonight’s meeting to voice their concerns and she expressed her appreciation for residents who come to the council meetings to address the council.
Council Member Nguyen-Penaloza stated she had the opportunity to attend the CalCities State Board of Directors meeting where local electors expressed deep concerns about an anti-local control ballot measure to be voted on this upcoming election. She asked staff to research this and whether the City will take a formal position, noting most of her colleagues on the state board have taken a nonsupportive position. She noted that there is some good news in terms of homelessness funding available from the State; however, the Governor vetoed AB 1696 a bill that would require privately owned recovery residences, i.e., Sober Living Homes to document policies and procedures, code of ethics and patient access to medications, which could become controversial. She thanked Council Member Tran for attending the CalCities Holiday event with her. She expressed her excitement and appreciation for the students who featured TikTok videos on the “Foods of Garden Grove,” an idea she had when she was Mayor Pro Tem and expanded upon by City Manager Kim. She encouraged continued support for the “Foods of Garden Grove” and to keep it going and growing. She noted that she did support bike lanes and that there are many people who use the bike lanes. She 121

hopes for continued support for bike lanes. She wished her younger brother a happy birthday and everyone a happy holiday.
City Manager Kim noted that Thursday at 1:00 p.m. is the last day to turn in receipts to the Garden Grove Chamber of Commerce on Main Street for the Black Friday Goes Big in Garden Grove campaign. She thanked Council Member DoVinh for mentioning the Housing Element and also thanked the City Council for their support adopting the Housing Element that was three years in the making that included planning for 19,168 Regional Housing Needs Assessment units, which was a very big undertaking on the part of the Community Development team. It was a win today receiving the approval letter for the official certification of the City’s Housing Element.
City Attorney Sandoval noted that there was no reportable action on the two closed session items discussed.
At 7:49 p.m., Mayor Jones adjourned the meeting. The next Regular City Council Meeting is scheduled on Tuesday, January 9, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. at the Community Meeting Center, 11300 Stanford Avenue, Garden Grove, California.

INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
To: Lisa L. Kim From: Niki Wetzel
Dept: City Manager Dept: Community Development
Date: 2/13/2024
Subject: Adoption of Resolutions for: Approval of a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, General Plan Amendment No.
GPA-001-2023, Site Plan No. SP-127-2023, and Tentative Tract Map No. TT19273 for a 30-unit residential townhome project; and the introduction and first reading of an ordinance approving Zoning Amendment No. A-036-202 Entitled:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GARDEN GROVE APPROVING ZONING AMENDMENT NO. A-036-2023 TO AMEND THE CITY’S
OFFICIAL ZONING MAP TO CHANGE THE ZONING DESIGNATION OF PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 13252 BROOKHURST STREET AND 10052 CENTRAL AVENUE AND IDENTIFIED AS ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NOS. 099-031-01, 099- 031-02, 099-031-08, and 099-031-09 FROM C-1 (NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL) AND R-2 (LIMITED MULTIPLE RESIDENTIAL) TO R-3 (MULTIPLEFAMILY RESIDENTIAL). (Action Item)
OBJECTIVE
To transmit a recommendation from the Planning Commission to the City Council to approve the land use actions necessary to effectuate approval of a 30-unit residential townhome project, which includes three (3) affordable units for “moderate-income” households, and associated site improvements on an approximately 1.22-acre site located at 13252 Brookhurst Street and 10052 Central Avenue. Specifically, the City Council is requested to take the following actions: (i) to adopt a Resolution adopting a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project; (ii) to adopt a Resolution approving General Plan Amendment No.
GPA-001-2023 to change the Land Use Designation of the subject properties from Light Commercial (LC) and Low Medium Density Residential (LMR) to Medium Density Residential (MDR) to facilitate the development of the residential Project; (iii) to introduce and conduct the first reading of an Ordinance approving Zoning Amendment No. A-036-2023 to change the zoning of the subject properties from C1 (Neighborhood Commercial) and R-2 (Limited Multiple Residential) to R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) to facilitate the development of the residential Project; 219
and (iv) to adopt a Resolution approving Site Plan No. SP-127-2023 and Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19273 to facilitate the development of the Project.
BACKGROUND
The subject site is a 1.22-acre site located at the southeast corner of Brookhurst Street and Central Avenue. The site consists of a C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial) zoned property, which was improved with the Marie Callender’s pad building, and a vacant R-2 (Limited Multiple Residential) zoned property. Since the Marie Callender’s building was severely damaged in a fire incident in 2022, the City issued a building demolition permit in June 2023 allowing the damaged building to be removed from the site. Thus, the entire site is currently vacant.
The site is in a mixed-use neighborhood that includes commercial services such as medical offices, restaurants, and retail; and residential uses, including both singleand multifamily dwellings.
The applicant, Melia Homes, Inc., has requested approval from the City to develop the site with thirty (30) attached townhomes, including three (3) affordable for-sale units for “moderate-income” households, along with associated site improvements.
Under the State Density Bonus Law (“SDBL”), the inclusion of three (3) affordable housing units entitles the project to waivers, concessions, and reduced parking ratios, which have been incorporated into the proposed design.
DISCUSSION
General Plan Amendment No. GPA-001-2023
The subject site currently consists of two (2) different General Plan Land Use Designations: Light Commercial (LC) (13252 Brookhurst Street) and Low Medium Density Residential (LMR) (10052 Central Avenue). A General Plan Amendment is necessary to change the land use designation of the entire site to Medium Density Residential (MDR) to facilitate the development of the proposed multifamily residential use, and to ensure consistency in land use designation throughout the development. The MDR allows a maximum density of 32 dwelling units per acre. The proposed density of the project is 24.6 dwelling units per acre, which is within the allowable density. With the proposed General Plan Amendment, the subject project will be consistent with the City’s General Plan.
Zoning Amendment No. A-036-2023:
The current zoning of the site, which is C-1 and R-2, does not support the proposed residential development. The C-1 zone does not allow multifamily residential developments, and the R-2 zone allows multifamily developments at a maximum of 220
21 units per acre, which is lower than the requested density. Provided the General Plan Amendment request is approved, the requested zone change to R-3 is necessary to implement the new Land Use Designation. The site is located within a mixed-use neighborhood characterized by large commercial plazas and multi-story residential buildings, and the proposed zoning amendment to facilitate the proposed development of thirty (30) townhomes will be consistent the development pattern of the surrounding area.
Site Plan No. SP-127-2023
Specific elements of the proposed Site Plan and development are discussed below – and in more detail in the attached December 7, 2023, Planning Commission Staff Report (Attachment 5).
The applicant proposes to construct a total of thirty (30) attached townhome units including twenty-two (22) two-bedroom units, and eight (8) fourbedroom units, ranging in size from 1,302 square feet to 1,928 square feet. The site will be accessible from Central Avenue through two (2) driveway approaches, which will be connected to a new U-shaped drive aisle. The drive aisle will circulate through the site to provide vehicular access to the garage of each unit. Pedestrian access to the site will be via the sidewalk fronting Central Avenue.
The project will also provide community walkways throughout the development that will lead to each unit’s front entry, as well as common recreational areas, and open guest parking spaces.
Each unit will be provided with a two-car garage (standard or tandem), two (2) private recreation areas within the unit consisting of an open patio in front of each unit and a balcony on the second floor.
The project provides a total of sixty-four (64) parking spaces, including 60 spaces inside the enclosed garages, and four (4) open guest parking stalls along the southerly property line.
In addition to private recreation space, the project will provide an approximately 3,290 square foot common recreation open area equipped with different types of amenities serving residents of the development, including a barbeque (BBQ) area equipped with large wood shade structures and tables, seating, outdoor furniture, community gardens, and a community dog bag station.
221
Approximately 9,500 square feet of landscaping will be provided throughout the site, including setback areas, along the drive aisle, and walkways, using a variety of plant materials. All of the landscaped areas will be fitted with automatic irrigation systems that comply with the City’s Water Efficiency Guidelines.
The proposed development will be three (3) stories in height and will incorporate modern contemporary architectural features including stucco exteriors, stone veneer, wooden sidings, decorative metal guardrail, and a combination of shed and gable roof. The building elevations portray a white, and grey color scheme, which will be complementary and architecturally compatible with the immediate neighborhood.
Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19273
In accordance with the State Subdivision Map Act, the applicant is requesting approval of Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19273 to consolidate the parcels into a single property with thirty (30) condominium units. Homeowners will be responsible for their unit, while the Homeowner Associate (HOA) will be responsible for maintaining communal areas within the property including, but not limited to, the shared driveway, recreational areas, landscaping, and the overall aesthetic of the site. The proposed Tentative Tract Map is in conformance with the zoning requirements for the site, as well as the City’s Subdivision Ordinance and the State Subdivision Map Act.
Environmental Review:
In conjunction with the proposed Project, the City (through an environmental consultant) has prepared an Initial Study report and Mitigated Negative Declaration (“IS/MND”) in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) analyzing the potential environmental impacts of the proposed residential townhome project. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines, the City made the IS/MND available for public review and comment prior to the meeting. The IS/MND concludes that the proposed Project will have no, or a less than significant, impact on all relevant environmental factors, provided specified mitigation measures are incorporated, as per the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (“MMRP”). The mitigation measures are included within the MMRP. The applicant will be required to coordinate 222
with an environmental consultant to implement the mitigation measures in the MMRP, as identified in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, and shall provide updates about the implementation process to the Community Development Department until completion of the project. The Planning Commission has adopted a Resolution recommending that the Garden Grove City Council adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration and an associated MMRP for the Project. A link to the digital copies of the IS/MND, including the technical appendices and MMRP, are available on the City’s website (https://ggcity.org/planning/environmental-documents).
Remaining RHNA and Housing Element Sites Inventory:
The project site consists of two adjoining (2) properties, consisting of four (4) parcels. Among the four parcels, two (2) are identified in the Housing Element sites inventory as having a combined realistic capacity to accommodate four (4) “abovemoderate-income” units. Since the proposed project will be providing three (3) “moderate-income” units and twenty-seven (27) “above-moderate-income” units, the project exceeds the anticipated realistic capacity of the site set forth in the Housing Element by 3 “moderate-income” units and 23 “above-moderate-income” units. Thus, No Net Loss Findings are not required for this project.
Housing Crisis Act Replacement Housing Compliance:
Pursuant to Government Code § 66300 et. seq., the City may not approve a development project that will displace any existing “protected units” that are or were occupied by lower or very low-income households within the past five (5) years.
Since no residential units have been demolished on this site within the last five (5) years to accommodate the proposed project, the applicant is not required to provide any replacement “protected units.”
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no financial impact.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:
Conduct a Public Hearing; and
223
Adopt a Resolution adopting a Mitigated Negative Declaration and an associated Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project; and Adopt a Resolution approving General Plan Amendment No. GPA-001-2023; and Introduce and conduct the first reading of an Ordinance approving Zoning Amendment No. A-036-2023; and

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Garden Grove hereby makes the following findings regarding Site Plan No. SP-127-2023 and Tentative Tract Map No.
TT- 19273:
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Garden Grove does hereby resolve as follows:
1. The City Council finds that the above recitals are true and correct.
2. City Council Resolution No. ____ adopting a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project is incorporated herein by reference with the same force and effect as if set forth in full herein.
3. The City Council of the City of Garden Grove hereby makes the following findings regarding Site Plan No. SP-127-2023:
a. The proposed development project is consistent, in compliance, and conformity with the applicable, objective standards, provisions, conditions or requirements of the General Plan, Title 9, or other applicable ordinances or policies of the City.
The proposed project includes the construction of thirty (30) residential townhomes that includes three (3) affordable housing units for "moderate income" households, along with associated site improvements. Pursuant to the State Density Bonus Law, the project is entitled to reduce parking ratios, one (1) incentive or concession, and waivers or modifications of development standards.
With the approval of General Plan Amendment No. GPA-001-2023 and Amendment No. A-036-2023, the subject site will have a General Plan land use designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR), and will be zoned R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential). The MDR land use designation is intended to create, maintain and enhance residential areas characterized by mostly traditional multi-family apartments, condominiums, and townhomes. The MDR land use designation is implemented by the R-3 zone, which is intended to provide for a variety of types and densities of multiple-family residential dwellings. This zone is intended to promote housing opportunities in close proximity to employment and commercial centers. With the exception of the reduced parking ratios and development standards required to be waived or modified pursuant to the State Density Bonus Law, the proposed project complies with all applicable objective development standards and provisions of the General Plan and Municipal Code.
239
Garden Grove City Council
Resolution No.
The proposed project is also consistent with several goals and policies of the City’s General Plan, including the following:
Policy LU-2.2: Strive to provide a diverse mix of housing types, along with uniformly high standards of residential property maintenance to preserve residents’ real estate values and their high quality of life.
The proposed development of thirty (30) for-sale units will add to the mix of diverse housing types in the immediate neighborhood. The proposed townhome development will ensure maintenance of all common areas, such as the private street, guest parking areas, the common recreation area, and street frontage landscaping, which will be the responsibility of the Homeowner’s Association to ensure proper maintenance that preserves the residents’ real estate values. Furthermore, the project will contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), as well as the Housing Element policies.
Policy LU-2.4: Assure that the type and intensity of land use shall be consistent with that of the immediate neighborhood.
The site is located within a mixed-use neighborhood characterized by large commercial plazas and multi-story residential and mixed-use buildings.
Existing and approved new uses within the one-mile radius from the site consist of both commercial and high-density residential developments, including the Brookhurst Place at the northwest corner of Brookhurst Street and Garden Grove Boulevard (48 units/acre), a future new Mixed Use Building at the northeast corner of Brookhurst Street and Garden Grove Boulevard (28 units/acre), and the Garden Brook Senior Housing development at the south side of Garden Grove Boulevard just west of Brookhurst Street (78 units/acre).
In addition, surrounding land use designations from the project site include Medium Density Residential, which allows a density of up to 32 units per acre, Residential/Commercial Mixed Use 1 (RC1), which allows up to 60 units per acre, and Residential/Commercial Mixed Use 3 (RC3), which allows up to 48 units per acre. Considering the site is surrounded by Land Use districts that allow higher residential density, the proposed R-3 that allows up to 32 units per acre is appropriate, as it will not only provide opportunities for new housing developments, but also create a transition between the lower density neighborhood to the east of the project site and the higher-density and mixeduse neighborhoods along Brookhurst Street.
Goal LU-4: The City seeks to develop uses that are compatible with one another.
The 1.22-acre site is proposed to be improved with thirty (30) townhome units, or 24.6 units per acre, which is within the allowable density of 32 units per acre pursuant to the proposed MDR General Plan land use designation. The proposed project is within the allowed density of the MDR land use designation 240
