EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On May 28, 2021, Urban Pacific a submitted a request to construct a 13-unit apartment complex, in two buildings, on property located at 12345 Carson Street and submitted applications for a General Plan Amendment (PLNG2021-0026), a Zone Change and Site Plan Review (PLNG2021- 0025) proposing to re-classify the current land use designation of said property from General Commercial (GC) to High Density Residential (HD), and to rezone the property from C-4 (General Commercial) to R-4 (High Density Residential).
BACKGROUND
The subject property is currently addressed as if located on the north side of Carson Street but is physically located on the corner of Claretta Avenue and Tilbury Street. The parcel is generally flat and rectangular in shape with a lot width of approximately 131 feet of frontage on Claretta Avenue and a depth of 202 feet on Tilbury Street. The site has a total land area of approximately 25,182 square feet. The site is surrounded primarily by single-family residential uses to the north and northeast, commercial uses along Carson Street to the south, with multi-family residential to the west. Much of the surrounding area outside of the General Commercial zone along Carson Street is residential in character.
General Plan and Zoning Designation: The project site is located within the GC (General Commercial) Zoning District, with a General Plan designation of "General Commercial”. The General Plan land use designation of General Commercial is intended for a broad range of commercial services and uses, including retail sales, service-related uses, entertainment, community service organizations, and professional offices. Exhibit A. visually depicts the General Plan designations at and around the site.
Exhibit A – General Plan
The Hawaiian Gardens Municipal Code (HGMC) states the purpose of the General Commercial zone is “to designate areas for office/professional and retail businesses in the City, that support residential areas and provide jobs for area residents. These areas are intended to accommodate a variety of shops for goods and services to serve the needs of the surrounding community.” Exhibit B. visually depicts the zoning designations at and around the site.

DISCUSSION
Site History
The site is situated on a .57-acre parcel currently vacant used for miscellaneous vehicle parking.
The original parcel with the 12345 Carson Street address, was split into two parcels in 2019 (APN’s 7066-017-126 and 7066-017-127) with the intention of selling the second lot. The present owners bought the site and subdivided it. They created the Enterprise rental car site, which occupied the first parcel and had a remaining parcel, which is the subject site. Urban Pacific connected with the seller approximately a year ago and presented the original designs to Hawaiian Gardens planning staff. Urban Pacific feels this is an opportunity to serve multigenerational families in Hawaiian Gardens with a quality housing product that doesn't exist in many places within the city. The large bedroom count makes the units affordable to families that would not normally have the opportunity to live together in a single apartment dwelling.
When the original parcel was divided, a new address was not assigned to this parcel (APN: 7066- 017-127). The city is researching an appropriate address. The applicant has requested 12300 Tilbury Street as the apartment mailboxes will be located on Tilbury Street.
Entitlements
Request - General Plan Amendment
State law requires that all cities have and maintain a general plan to guide the orderly growth and development of the community. It contains the community vision for future growth. Required elements of the general plan comprise the community’s major policies some of which relate to the topics of land use, housing, traffic circulation, and safety.

Agenda Item #A2
April 27, 2022
As previously mentioned, the parcel has a General Plan land use designation of General Commercial. The change to High Density Residential will allow for a residential development with increased unit density providing additional housing opportunities for larger families in the area.
Two of the units are designated as very low income units which allows the applicant to take advantage of the density bonus incentives.
The authority to amend the General Plan is found within the California Government Code (§65358), which states: “If it deems it to be in the public interest, the legislative body may amend all or part of an adopted general plan. An amendment to the general plan shall be initiated in the manner specified by the legislative body”.
General Plan Policies Affecting the Application
The City’s General Plan has several goals and polices that should be considered with the proposal when evaluating the project’s development, including the following excerpts from the General Plan Land Use Element:
Goal LU-1: Provide opportunity for continued revitalization of a balanced community. Policies:
LU-1.1 Accommodate new development in accordance with the Land Use Map (Exhibit A).
LU-1.9 Ensure that unique land uses, characterized by high occupancy or intensity of activity, be sited, designed, and administered to mitigate impacts on adjacent land uses.
Goal LU-2: Preserve and enhance residential neighborhoods in Hawaiian Gardens. Policies:
LU-2.3 Require multi-family developments to incorporate site design features, including, but not limited to, open space, landscaping, communal courtyards, and outdoor furniture.
LU-2.4 Require the design of all residential development to utilize notches, balconies, roof lines, open space, setbacks, landscaping and other architectural accents that add visual interest to buildings and streetscape and avoid monotonous, flat facades.
The General Plan also includes language that encourages the use of underutilized parcels and the placement of High-density projects adjacent to Commercial areas.
The locations of high density land uses are in close proximity to commercial areas, for increased accessibility and convenience.
The City’s Housing Element, includes the following:
Identify actions that will be taken to make sites available to accommodate that portion of the city’s share of the regional housing need for each income level that could not be accommodated on sites identified in the sites inventory.
Policies:
Facilitate the construction of the maximum feasible number of housing units for all income groups.
Agenda Item #A2
April 27, 2022
Implement the Land Use Element and Zoning Code to achieve adequate housing sites.
Amending the General Plan is a significant policy decision that should be carefully assessed. The need for a city to carefully weigh the benefits and impacts of changing its General Plan is reflected in State law, which limits the number of times a city may amend its General Plan in a year to four.
General Plan Amendments are fully discretionary. Projects resulting from an amendment often are expected to go above and beyond the requirements of the Code and add a superior product with benefits to the City.
Staff recognizes the need for additional housing products such as the proposed 13-unit apartment complex, in two buildings. Staff has worked with the developer to offer suggestions for improving the site plan architectural design. A revised architectural design is expected to be presented in the applicant’s power point addressing some of the color and design issues. Staff feels these changes enhance the project design and assist in creating a quality project which would be beneficial to the city. The project site plans are attachment G.
Request – Zone Change
As mentioned, the requested project site zoning is High Density Residential. Hawaiian Gardens Municipal Code §18.40.050 states as follows: The purpose of the high density residential (R-4) zone is to provide areas for multiple family residential developments where adequate services, traffic circulation, and the existence of open space and recreation areas are available. These are found in areas that provide a transition to non-residential zones and are primarily intended for apartments, condominiums and other high-density multi-family developments.
Per California Government Code (§65860), a city's zoning ordinance is required to be consistent with the general plan. The High Density Residential zone is consistent with the requested General Plan designation of High Density Residential.
The proposed High Density Residential zone is acceptable for this type of residential development where a commercial parcel no longer fronts on the main commercial corridor. It is a much more acceptable use for the parcel than many of the permitted uses in the general commercial zone which could potentially present issues such as noise and air quality. It would serve as a buffer for the existing single family residential homes on the north side of Tilbury.
There is a similar apartment project to the west making it compatible with the neighborhood.
Request – Density Bonus
The applicant has requested use of a density bonus program per HGMC §18.90.070 - Density bonuses.
Density bonuses are mandated in part by the State's Density Bonus Law (California Government Code §65915 and 65917) and provide incentives for the development of affordable housing units for very low income, lower income or senior households. This article provides regulations for the development of affordable units for low- and very low-income households, designed to meet the City's housing needs.
Agenda Item #A2
April 27, 2022
Project qualification. In accordance with Government Code §65915, the City shall grant a density bonus and at least one additional concession or incentive, or a financially equivalent incentive to eligible housing developments, as outlined below:
1.The eligible housing development shall consist of five or more dwelling units.
2.Affordable housing units (as defined in §65915(b) of the California Government Code) shall be provided on-site and shall include one or more of the following:
a. At least ten percent of the total units allowed by the maximum permitted density shall be provided at affordable housing costs and occupied by lower-income households.
b. At least five percent of the total units allowed by the maximum permitted density shall be provided at affordable housing costs and occupied by very low-income households.
Additionally it states:
5. When the housing development proposes at least 20 percent of the total units for lower income households or at least ten percent for very low income households or at least 20 percent of the total units in a condominium project for moderate-income households, the project shall be entitled to a density bonus and two concessions or additional incentives, as outlined in subsection C. additional incentives, below.
The project qualifies a 50% density bonus for two additional concessions and has chosen a reduction in open space to 156 square feet per unit and a parking reduction per the tables below.
There is additional parking available on Tilbury Street and Claretta Avenue.

Agenda Item #A2
April 27, 2022
Given the facts and policies stated in this report, the Commission should consider the following policy question: “Is the development plan being proposed appropriate to achieve the General Plan’s intended vision, goals and policies?” Additionally, the Commission’s policy considerations should relate and affirm or reject the project based on the General Plan and references to related goals and policies as noted above in this report.
Mitigated Negative Declaration edit
Staff feels that the project description in the Mitigated Negative Declaration needs clarification in two places.
Staff suggests that this statement;
Therefore, the project includes a general plan amendment and zone change to High Density Residential (R-4) to permit the construction of 13 multi-family residential units.
Be amended to say:
Therefore, the project includes a general plan amendment change to High Density (HD) and zone change to High Density Residential (R-4) to permit the construction of 13 multi-family residential units.
Staff suggests that this statement;
The parcel is surrounded by retail uses directly to the north, south and west. The proposed project is surrounded by residential uses on all sides and Coyote Creek to the east. Melbourne (Ella P.) Elementary is located further north. Forest Lawn Cemetery is located further east of the proposed project.
Be amended to say:
The site is surrounded primarily by single-family residential uses to the north and northeast, commercial uses along Carson Street to the south and across Claretta Avenue to the east, with multi-family residential to the west. Much of the surrounding area outside of the General Commercial zone along Carson Street is residential in character. Coyote Creek and Forest Lawn Cemetery are located further east of the proposed project. Melbourne (Ella P.) Elementary is located further north.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
A California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Initial Study was prepared, as required due to fact that the proposal includes a General Plan Amendment. With assistance from Harris and Associates, Inc., the City completed an Initial Study (IS) on the project in accordance with CEQA. The Draft Initial Study concluded that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment with inclusion of mitigation measures, and a Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) have been prepared.
Agenda Item #A2
April 27, 2022
The Project has been reviewed pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Sections 21000, et seq. (CEQA)), the State CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Sections 15000, et seq.), and the requested entitlements have been noticed and posted in accordance with the City of Hawaiian Gardens municipal code, and in accordance with the city’s CEQA project guidelines. The Draft IS/MND and MMP are included with this report as Attachments B and C. The City received one written correspondence comment regarding the Draft IS/MND. The Comment letter received and the City’s written response to the submitted comment is included with Attachment B.
FISCAL IMPACT
This project will have a small financial impact to the City. The applicant paid all application related fees and was responsible for environmental review related costs associated with the proposed project. If approved the proposed project would provide one-time revenue to the City in the form of building and development impact fees.

RE: July 26, 2022 City Council Meeting, Agenda Item A-2 Case Nos. PLNG2021-0025 and PLNG2021-0026 (12345 Carson St.) To the City Council:
Californians for Homeownership is a 501(c)(3) organization devoted to using legal tools to address California’s housing crisis. We are writing regarding the 12345 Carson Street project.
The City’s approval of this project is governed by the Housing Accountability Act, Government Code Section 65589.5. For the purposes of Government Code Section 65589.5(k)(2), this letter constitutes our written comments submitted in connection with the project.
This project is entitled to approval regardless of the City’s zoning and general plan standards under subdivision (d) of the Act. Subdivision (d) requires the City to approve any qualifying project, regardless of the City’s land use standards, unless an exception applies. There is an exception, in subdivisions (d)(5), that can allow a city to apply (in a limited fashion) its zoning and general plan standards to such a project; however, the City is barred from using this exception because it has not adopted a valid sixth cycle housing element as required by Government Code Section 65588.
Thus, the only avenue for the City to reject this project, even if it refuses the requested zone change and general plan amendment, is to find that the project would have a “specific, adverse impact upon the public health or safety,” meaning that the project would have “a significant, quantifiable, direct, and unavoidable impact, based on objective, identified written public health or safety standards, policies, or conditions as they existed on the date the application was deemed complete.” Gov. Code § 65589.5(d)(2); see Gov. Code § 65589.5(k)(1)(A)(i)(I). “Objective” means “involving no personal or subjective judgment by a public official and being uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the development applicant or proponent and the public official.” Gov. Code § 65589.5(h)(8).
July 26, 2022
The Legislature has directed that the Act be “interpreted and implemented in a manner to afford the fullest possible weight to the interest of, and the approval and provision of, housing.” Gov. Code § 65589.5(a)(2)(L).
When a locality rejects or downsizes a housing development project without complying with the rules described above, the action may be challenged in court in a writ under Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.5. Gov. Code § 65589.5(m). The legislature has significantly reformed this process over the last few years in an effort to increase compliance. Today, the law provides a private right of action to non-profit organizations like Californians for Homeownership. Gov.
Code § 65589.5(k). A non-profit organization can sue without the involvement or approval of the project applicant, to protect the public’s interest in the development of new housing. A locality that is sued to enforce Section 65589.5 must prepare the administrative record itself, at its own expense, within 30 days after service of the petition. Gov. Code § 65589.5(m). And if an enforcement lawsuit brought by a non-profit organization is successful, the locality must pay the organization’s attorneys’ fees. Gov. Code § 65589.5(k)(2). In certain cases, the court will also impose fines that start at $10,000 per proposed housing unit. Gov. Code § 65589.5(k)(1)(B)(i).
In recent years, there have been a number of successful lawsuits to enforce these rules:
In Honchariw, 200 Cal. App. 4th 1066, the Court of Appeal vacated the County of Stanislaus’s denial of an application to subdivide a parcel into eight lots for the development of market-rate housing. The court held that the county did not identify any objective standards that the proposed subdivision would not meet, and therefore violated the Housing Accountability Act in denying the application. In Eden Housing, Inc. v. Town of Los Gatos, Santa Clara County Superior Court Case No. 16CV300733, the court determined that Los Gatos had improperly denied a subdivision application based on subjective factors. The court found that the factors cited by the town, such as the quality of the site design, the unit mix, and the anticipated cost of the units, were not objective because they did not refer to specific, mandatory criteria to which the applicant could conform. San Francisco Bay Area Renters Federation v. Berkeley City Council, Alameda County Superior Court Case No. RG16834448, was the final in a series of cases relating to Berkeley’s denial of an application to build three single family homes and its pretextual denial of a demolition permit to enable the project. The Court ordered the city to approve the project and to pay $44,000 in attorneys’ fees. In 40 Main Street Offices v. City of Los Altos, Santa Clara County Superior Court Consolidated Case Nos. 19CV349845 & 19CV350422, the court determined that the Los Altos violated the Housing Accountability Act, among other state housing laws, by failing to identify objective land use criteria to justify denying a mixeduse residential and commercial project. The City was ultimately forced to pay approximately $1 million in delay compensation and attorneys’ fees in the case.
July 26, 2022
In Californians for Homeownership v. City of Huntington Beach, Orange County Superior Court Case No. 30-2019-01107760-CU-WM-CJC, a case brought by our organization, the court ruled that Huntington Beach violated the Housing Accountability Act when it rejected a 48-unit condominium project based on vague concerns about health and safety. Following the decision, the City agreed to pay $600,000 in attorneys’ fees to our organization and two other plaintiffs.
In other cases, localities have settled lawsuits by agreeing to approve the subject projects and pay tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal expenses.
Sincerely,
Christian Garcia

STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #B2
DATE: September 27, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Ernesto Marquez, City Manager
BY: Megan Garibaldi, City Attorney
RECOMMENDATION:
RECOMMENDATION TO CONTINUE TO AUTHORIZE VIRTUAL AND HYBRID CITY
COUNCIL MEETINGS AS WELL AS VIRTUAL AND HYBRID MEETINGS FOR ALL
OTHER CITY BOARDS, COMMISSIONS, COMMITTEES, OR AGENCIES PURSUANT TO AB 361
SUMMARY
On March 17, 2020, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20, which allowed legislative bodies to conduct public meetings through teleconferencing without complying with certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act. All provisions of Executive Order N29-20 concerning the conduct of public meetings expired on September 30, 2021.
Assembly Bill 361 was signed into law by the governor on September 16, 2021, and went into effect immediately. AB 361 allows legislative bodies such as the Hawaiian Gardens City Council and other City bodies to meet virtually provided there is a state of emergency, and either (1) state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing; or (2) the legislative body determines by majority vote that conducting full meetings in person would present imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees. The Governor by executive order signed on September 20, 2021, suspended the effective date of AB 361 to October 1, 2021. As a result, if the City Council desires to have virtual or hybrid City Council meetings on or after October 1, 2021, it must do so consistent with the requirements of AB 361. Though adopted in the context of the pandemic, Assembly Bill 361 allows for virtual or hybrid meetings during other proclaimed emergencies such as earthquakes or wildfires, where physical attendance may present a risk.
Agenda Item #B2
September 27, 2022
AB 361 requires the following:
• Public agencies, by majority vote within 30 days of the first virtual or hybrid meeting under AB 361 and every 30 days thereafter, find a state of emergency still exists and continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person, or that officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing.
• A public comment period where the public can address the legislative body directly. • Public comments cannot be limited to only comments submitted in advance and specifies that the body “must provide an opportunity for the public to offer comment in real time” per Government Code 54953(e)(2)(E).
• The body must allow a reasonable time for public comment during the comment periods.
• The agenda must include information on the manner in which the public may access the meeting and on providing comments remotely.
• If technical problems arise that result in the public’s access being disrupted, the legislative body may not take any vote or other official action until the technical disruption is corrected and public access is restored.
• AB 361 provisions will sunset on January 1, 2024.
Under AB 361, the City may continue using virtual or hybrid meetings for the duration of the state-proclaimed state of emergency if the City Council finds that (1) state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing or (2) if meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees.
The City Council is able to make those findings.
While the State continues to wind down certain pandemic restrictions, and County Health Orders no longer require masking in many indoor settings, LA County remains in the High COVID-19 Community Level.
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health (LACDPH) Health Officer Order, revised April 21, 2022, states in pertinent part as follows:
Masking will continue to be strongly recommended, but no longer be required, in most indoor settings and in K-12 Schools or childcare facilities. Masking will continue to be required for all persons, regardless of vaccination status, in higher transmission risk settings within the County, like on public transit and in transportation hubs, all health care settings, correctional facilities and detention centers, emergency shelters, cooling and heating centers, homeless shelters, and long-term care settings and adult and senior care centers.
In addition, the LACDPH “Reducing Risk Guidance (English)” revised on July 8, 2022, lists the following under the section titled “How to Reduce the Risks of COVID-19”:
Improve air flow. Avoid indoor spaces with poor air flow as much as possible.
Agenda Item #B2
September 27, 2022
Choose outdoor spaces for social and fitness activities when possible.
Keep your distance. Use two arms lengths as your guide (about 6 feet) for social distancing with people you don’t live with.
LACDPH also issued a statement on July 15, 2022, noting:
If LA County remains in the High COVID-19 Community Level for two consecutive weeks, universal indoor masking will be implemented on July 29 to help slow the rate of transmission & protect those most vulnerable.
While the LACDPH ultimately did not implement indoor masking, LACDPH still strongly advises masks in indoor settings.
Despite the easing of certain State and local restrictions, and in light of the consideration to re-implement of some of these restrictions, community spread continues to threaten individuals’ ability to attend public meetings, in particular individuals who are immunocompromised, infected, and/or socially distancing. Therefore, continuing to offer attendees the opportunity to virtually attend City Council meetings under AB 361 furthers the purpose of AB 361 to provide equal access to meetings of local government.
Continued compliance with AB 361 will require the board approve the action making the required findings every 30 days, via the consent agenda.

RECOMMENDATION:
RECOMMENDATION TO RECEIVE AND FILE REPORT ON THE HOMELESS OUTREACH AND PROACTIVE ENFORECEMENT (H.O.P.E.) PROGRAM
SUMMARY
Mayor Pro-Tem Del Rio requested information on this program. The Homeless Outreach and Proactive Enforcement (H.O.P.E.) program is a pro-active approach intended to ultimately reduce calls for service and other resources currently required to deal with the homeless population. A community policing philosophy is used to link the homeless population with resources and service providers. The objective is to stop the revolving door of arrest, incarceration, and then release regarding homeless related crimes.
The H.O.P.E. team is typically a four-person team. Personnel assigned to the H.O.P.E. team each will be responsible for a portion of the city to connect with resources, service providers, and points of contact. The H.O.P.E. program aims to balance pro-active outreach with enforcement of the law, while connecting members of the homeless population with resources that may help them transition from homelessness. The ultimate goal is to reduce the rate of recidivism and reduce the current costs associated to homeless related crime.
The vision of H.O.P.E. is to increase the quality of life for all citizens by reducing crime associated with the homeless population and subsequently saving taxpayer costs and resources.
For reference, the city of Norwalk fields a H.O.P.E. team. The team is aimed at helping the homeless and easing the burden of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department by managing non-criminal or minor issues dealing with homeless people.
Agenda Item #B9
September 27, 2022
Established in 2018, the H.O.P.E. team consists of a lieutenant, one public safety officer, two maintenance workers and a code compliance inspector who collaborates with the team. The H.O.P.E. team works Monday through Friday from 5 a.m. to 2 p.m. Estimated cost of the staff members is $339,000 a year.
The city’s homeless plan helped 102 individuals or families obtain housing from January 2018 to April 2019. It assisted another 287 families with homelessness prevention resources such as rental and utility assistance and provided 96 families with temporary lodging.
H.O.P.E. conducts outreach, educates the homeless on available services, addresses resident and business concerns, conducts clean ups of encampments and assists in enforcement of violations such as trespassing and public intoxication.

RECOMMENDATION TO ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 049-2022, UPDATING THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE AND REPEALING RESOLUTION NO. 013-2019
SUMMARY

Regulations)

§ 18730. Provisions of Conflict of Interest Codes.
(a) Incorporation by reference of the terms of this regulation along with the designation of employees and the formulation of disclosure categories in the Appendix referred to below constitute the adoption and promulgation of a conflict of interest code within the meaning of Section 87300 or the amendment of a conflict of interest code within the meaning of Section 87306 if the terms of this regulation are substituted for terms of a conflict of interest code already in effect. A code so amended or adopted and promulgated requires the reporting of reportable items in a manner substantially equivalent to the requirements of article 2 of chapter 7 of the Political Reform Act, Sections 81000, et seq. The requirements of a conflict of interest code are in addition to other requirements of the Political Reform Act, such as the general prohibition against conflicts of interest contained in Section 87100, and to other state or local laws pertaining to conflicts of interest.
(b) The terms of a conflict of interest code amended or adopted and promulgated pursuant to this regulation are as follows:
(1) Section 1. Definitions.
The definitions contained in the Political Reform Act of 1974, regulations of the Fair Political Practices Commission (Regulations 18110, et seq. ), and any amendments to the Act or regulations, are incorporated by reference into this conflict of interest code. (2) Section 2. Designated Employees.
2 The persons holding positions listed in the Appendix are designated employees. It has been determined that these persons make or participate in the making of decisions which may foreseeably have a material effect on economic interests. (3) Section 3. Disclosure Categories.
This code does not establish any disclosure obligation for those designated employees who are also specified in Section 87200 if they are designated in this code in that same capacity or if the geographical jurisdiction of this agency is the same as or is wholly included within the jurisdiction in which those persons must report their economic interests pursuant to article 2 of chapter 7 of the Political Reform Act, Sections 87200, et seq.
In addition, this code does not establish any disclosure obligation for any designated employees who are designated in a conflict of interest code for another agency, if all of the following apply:
(A) The geographical jurisdiction of this agency is the same as or is wholly included within the jurisdiction of the other agency;
(B) The disclosure assigned in the code of the other agency is the same as that required under article 2 of chapter 7 of the Political Reform Act, Section 87200; and (C) The filing officer is the same for both agencies.1
Such persons are covered by this code for disqualification purposes only. With respect to all other designated employees, the disclosure categories set forth in the Appendix specify which kinds of economic interests are reportable. Such a designated employee shall disclose in the employee's statement of economic interests those economic interests the employee has which are of the kind described in the disclosure categories to which the employee is assigned in the Appendix. It has been determined that the economic interests set forth in a designated employee's 3 disclosure categories are the kinds of economic interests which the employee foreseeably can affect materially through the conduct of the employee's office. (4) Section 4. Statements of Economic Interests: Place of Filing.
The code reviewing body shall instruct all designated employees within its code to file statements of economic interests with the agency or with the code reviewing body, as provided by the code reviewing body in the agency's conflict of interest code.2 (5) Section 5.

(B) Assuming Office Statements.

1. If a person reports for military service as defined in the Servicemember's Civil Relief Act, the deadline for the annual statement of economic interests is 30 days following the person's return to office, provided the person, or someone authorized to represent the person's interests, notifies the filing officer in writing prior to the applicable filing deadline that the person is subject to that federal statute and is unable to meet the applicable deadline, and provides the filing officer verification of the person's military status.
4 (D) Leaving Office Statements. All persons who leave designated positions shall file statements within 30 days after leaving office.
(5.5) Section 5.5. Statements for Persons Who Resign Prior to Assuming Office.
Any person who resigns within 12 months of initial appointment, or within 30 days of the date of notice provided by the filing officer to file an assuming office statement, is not deemed to have assumed office or left office, provided the person did not make or participate in the making of, or use the person's position to influence any decision and did not receive or become entitled to receive any form of payment as a result of the person's appointment. Such persons shall not file either an assuming or leaving office statement.
(A) Any person who resigns a position within 30 days of the date of a notice from the filing officer shall do both of the following:
(1) File a written resignation with the appointing power; and (2) File a written statement with the filing officer declaring under penalty of perjury that during the period between appointment and resignation the person did not make, participate in the making, or use the position to influence any decision of the agency or receive, or become entitled to receive, any form of payment by virtue of being appointed to the position.

(C) Contents of Annual Statements. Annual statements shall disclose any reportable investments, interests in real property, income and business positions held or received during the previous calendar year provided, however, that the period covered by an employee's first annual statement shall begin on the effective date of the code or the date of assuming office whichever is later, or for a board or commission member subject to Section 87302.6, the day after the closing date of the most recent statement filed by the member pursuant to Regulation 18754. (D) Contents of Leaving Office Statements.
Leaving office statements shall disclose reportable investments, interests in real property, income and business positions held or received during the period between the closing date of the last statement filed and the date of leaving office.

Loans from a person which, in the aggregate, do not exceed $500 at any given time.
4. Loans made, or offered in writing, before January 1, 1998. (8.3) Section 8.3. Loan Terms.

Except in a criminal action, a creditor who claims that a loan is not a gift on the basis of this paragraph has the burden of proving that the decision for not taking collection action was based on reasonable business considerations.

(C) Nothing in this section shall exempt any person from any other provisions of Title 9 of the Government Code.
12 (9) Section 9. Disqualification.
No designated employee shall make, participate in making, or in any way attempt to use the employee's official position to influence the making of any governmental decision which the employee knows or has reason to know will have a reasonably foreseeable material financial effect, distinguishable from its effect on the public generally, on the official or a member of the official's immediate family or on:
(A) Any business entity in which the designated employee has a direct or indirect investment worth $2,000 or more;
(B) Any real property in which the designated employee has a direct or indirect interest worth $2,000 or more;

(9.3) Section 9.3. Legally Required Participation.
No designated employee shall be prevented from making or participating in the making of any decision to the extent the employee's participation is legally required for the decision to be made. 13 The fact that the vote of a designated employee who is on a voting body is needed to break a tie does not make the employees' participation legally required for purposes of this section. (9.5) Section 9.5. Disqualification of State Officers and Employees.
In addition to the general disqualification provisions of section 9, no state administrative official shall make, participate in making, or use the official's position to influence any governmental decision directly relating to any contract where the state administrative official knows or has reason to know that any party to the contract is a person with whom the state administrative official, or any member of the official's immediate family has, within 12 months prior to the time when the official action is to be taken:
(A) Engaged in a business transaction or transactions on terms not available to members of the public, regarding any investment or interest in real property; or (B) Engaged in a business transaction or transactions on terms not available to members of the public regarding the rendering of goods or services totaling in value $1,000 or more. (10) Section 10. Disclosure of Disqualifying Interest.
When a designated employee determines that the employee should not make a governmental decision because the employee has a disqualifying interest in it, the determination not to act may be accompanied by disclosure of the disqualifying interest. (11) Section 11. Assistance of the Commission and Counsel.
Any designated employee who is unsure of the duties under this code may request assistance from the Fair Political Practices Commission pursuant to Section 83114 and Regulations 18329 and 18329.5 or from the attorney for the employee's agency, provided that nothing in this section requires the attorney for the agency to issue any formal or informal opinion. (12) Section 12. Violations.
14 This code has the force and effect of law. Designated employees violating any provision of this code are subject to the administrative, criminal and civil sanctions provided in the Political Reform Act, Sections 81000-91014. In addition, a decision in relation to which a violation of the disqualification provisions of this code or of Section 87100 or 87450 has occurred may be set aside as void pursuant to Section 91003.
____________________
1 Designated employees who are required to file statements of economic interests under any other agency's conflict of interest code, or under article 2 for a different jurisdiction, may expand their statement of economic interests to cover reportable interests in both jurisdictions, and file copies of this expanded statement with both entities in lieu of filing separate and distinct statements, provided that each copy of such expanded statement filed in place of an original is signed and verified by the designated employee as if it were an original. See Section 81004. 2 See Section 81010 and Regulation 18115 for the duties of filing officers and persons in agencies who make and retain copies of statements and forward the originals to the filing officer. 3 For the purpose of disclosure only (not disqualification), an interest in real property does not include the principal residence of the filer.
4 Investments and interests in real property which have a fair market value of less than $2,000 are not investments and interests in real property within the meaning of the Political Reform Act.
However, investments or interests in real property of an individual include those held by the individual's spouse and dependent children as well as a pro rata share of any investment or interest in real property of any business entity or trust in which the individual, spouse and dependent children own, in the aggregate, a direct, indirect or beneficial interest of 10 percent or greater.
15 5 A designated employee's income includes the employee's community property interest in the income of the employee's spouse but does not include salary or reimbursement for expenses received from a state, local or federal government agency. 6 Income of a business entity is reportable if the direct, indirect or beneficial interest of the filer and the filer's spouse in the business entity aggregates a 10 percent or greater interest. In addition, the disclosure of persons who are clients or customers of a business entity is required only if the clients or customers are within one of the disclosure categories of the filer.

RECOMMENDATION TO WAIVE FULL READING AND ADOPT ON SECOND READING BY TITLE ONLY, ORDINANCE NO. 2022-602, AMENDING TITLE 18 (ZONING), CHAPTER 18.90 (SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS), SECTION 18.90.080 (ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS AND JUNIOR ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS)
OF THE HAWAIIAN GARDENS MUNICIPAL CODE REGARDING ADUS AND JADUS
AND DETERMINING THE PROJECT IS EXEMPT UNDER THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT(CEQA) PURSUANT TO SECTION 21080.17 OF
THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC RESOURCES CODE
SUMMARY
BACKGROUND
In 2019, the California Legislature approved, and the Governor signed into law a number of bills (“2019 ADU Laws”) that, among other things, amended Government Code section 65852.2 and 65852.22 to impose new limits on local authority to regulate ADUs and Junior ADUs (JADUs).
In September of 2020, the California Legislature approved, and the Governor signed into law, Assembly Bill 3182 (AB 3182). AB 3182, among other things, amended Government Code section 65852.2 to: (1) expand the scenarios under which the City must allow certain ADUs and JADUs with only a building permit; and (2) clarify the timeline under which the City must act on a complete ADU application. Failure to comply with Government Code section 65852.2 (as amended) renders the City’s ordinance regulating ADUs and JADUs null and void, thereby limiting the City to the application of the few Agenda Item #C2
September 19, 2022
default standards provided in Government Code sections 65852.2 and 65852.22 for the approval of ADUs and JADUs.
Approval of ADUs and JADUs based solely on the default statutory standards, without local regulations governing height, setback, landscape, architectural review, among other things, would threaten the character of existing neighborhoods, and negatively impact property values, personal privacy, and safety in the City. To avoid such a scenario, the proposed ordinance amends the City’s local regulatory scheme for the construction of ADUs and JADUs to comply with AB 3182 and provide, to some degree, local requirements geared toward mitigations these negative impacts.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The proposed ordinance’s amendments include, but are not limited to, the following amendment to Hawaiian Gardens Municipal Code Section 18.90.080:
• Clarifying that a property owner may construct one ADU and one JADU with only a building permit when the units are on a lot with a proposed or existing single-family dwelling and located within the space of a single-family dwelling or within the space of an existing accessory structure subject to certain development standards. • Clarifying changes to building permit only ADUs on multi-family lots, • Creating a permit process for those ADUs and JADUs (subject to various development standards) that are not subject to the ministerial building permit only process noted above.
• Clarifying that if a complete ADU or JADU application is not acted upon within 60 days, the application is deemed approved.
• Adding an income reporting section to the ordinance. This would allow the City to potentially take credit for affordable ADUs that are created if the rent meets affordable limits. This would require the applicant to estimate what would be the proposed rent for the ADU or JADU.
• Requiring ADU permit ADUs to have a roof slope that matches the dominant slope of the primary dwelling (to provide increased design compatibility) and to match appearance and architectural design of those of the primary dwelling.
The above mentioned State laws severely limit what additional restrictions the City can impose on ADUs and JADUs. The attached ordinance was drafted with this in mind so that it provides the maximum amount of local regulation to mitigate any negative impacts of these ADUs and JADUs without running afoul of the State statutory scheme. This area is so important to the State, that the City must submit its ordinance regulating ADUs and JADUs to the California Department of Housing and Community Development for review and comment. Expanding or increasing any of the development standards and restrictions in the attached ordinance may not be permitted under State law.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
Under California Public Resources Code section 21080.17, the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) does not apply to the adoption of an ordinance by a city or county implementing the provisions of section 65852.2 of the Government Code, which is California’s ADU law and which also regulates JADUs, as defined by section 65852.22.
Therefore, the proposed ordinance is statutorily exempt from CEQA in that the proposed ordinance implements the State’s ADU law.
GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The proposed text amendment has been evaluated for consistency with the City’s General Plan and is consistent with the following:
• Preserve and enhance the community’s quality of life by fostering safe and appealing neighborhoods
• Provide a variety of housing options
• Promote safe, walkable neighborhoods
• Ensure compatibility between residential and nonresidential land uses to create harmonious living environments
FISCAL IMPACT
None.

(b) The City must act on an application to create an ADU or JADU within 60 days from the date that the City receives a completed application. If the City does not act upon the completed application within 60 days, the application is deemed approved unless either:
(i) The applicant requests a delay, in which case the 60-day time period is tolled for the period of the requested delay, or
(ii) When an application to create an ADU or JADU is submitted with a permit application to create a new single-family dwelling on the lot, the City may delay acting on the permit application for the ADU or JADU until the City acts on the permit application to create the new single-family dwelling, but the application to create the ADU or JADU will still be considered ministerially without discretionary review or a hearing.
D. Standards applicable to all accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units. The following requirements apply to all ADUs and JADUs that are approved under subsections (C)(1) or (C)(2) above:
1. Zoning.
(a) An ADU or JADU subject only to a building permit under subsection (C)(1) above may be created on a lot in a residential or mixed-use zone.
(b) An ADU or JADU subject to an ADU permit under subsection (C)(2) above may be created on a lot that is zoned to allow single-family dwelling residential use or multifamily dwelling residential use.
2. Fire Sprinklers. Fire sprinklers are required in an ADU if sprinklers are required in the primary residence.
3. Rental Term. No ADU or JADU may be rented for a term that is shorter than 30 days. This prohibition applies regardless of when the ADU or JADU was created.
4. No Separate Conveyance. An ADU or JADU may be rented, but, except as otherwise provided in Government Code Section 65852.26, no ADU or JADU may be sold or otherwise conveyed separately from the lot and the primary dwelling (in the case of a single-family lot) or from the lot and all of the dwellings (in the case of a multifamily lot).
5. Owner Occupancy.
(a) All ADUs permitted before January 1, 2020 are subject to the owner-occupancy requirement that was in place when the ADU was created.
(b) An ADU that is permitted after that date but before January 1, 2025, is not subject to any owneroccupancy requirement. (c) All ADUs that are permitted on or after January 1, 2025 are subject to an owner-occupancy requirement. A natural person with legal or equitable title to the property must reside on the property as the person’s legal domicile and permanent residence. (d) All JADUs are subject to an owner-occupancy requirement. A natural person with legal or equitable title to the property must reside on the property, in either the primary dwelling or JADU, as the person’s legal domicile and permanent residence. However, the owner-occupancy requirement in this subsection does not apply if the property is entirely owned by another governmental agency, land trust, or housing organization
6.Deed Restriction. Prior to the issuance of a building permit for an ADU or JADU, a deed restriction must be recorded against the title of the property in the County Recorder’s office and a copy filed with the Community Development Department to the City’s satisfaction. The deed restriction must run with the land and bind all future owners. The form of the deed restriction will be provided by the City and must provide that, among other things:
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Government Code Section 65852.26, the ADU or JADU may not be sold separately from the primary dwelling.
(b) The ADU or JADU is restricted to the approved size and to other attributes allowed by this section. (c) The ADU or JADU cannot be rented out for a term less than 30 days. (d) The deed restriction runs with the land and may be enforced against future property owners. (d) The deed restriction may be removed if the owner eliminates the ADU or JADU, as evidenced by, for example, removal of the kitchen facilities. To remove the deed restriction, an owner may make a written request of the Community Development Director, providing evidence that the ADU or JADU has in fact been eliminated. The Community Development Director may then determine whether the evidence supports the claim that the ADU or JADU has been eliminated. Appeal(s) may be taken from the Director’s determination consistent with other provisions of this Code. If the ADU or JADU is not entirely physically removed, but is only eliminated by virtue of having a necessary component of an ADU or JADU removed, the remaining structure and improvements must otherwise comply with applicable provisions of this Code.
(e) The deed restriction is enforceable by the Community Development Director or his or her designee for the benefit of the City. Failure of the property owner to comply with the deed restriction may result in legal action against the property owner, and the City is authorized to obtain any remedy available to it at law or equity, including, but not limited to, obtaining an injunction enjoining the use of the ADU or JADU in violation of the recorded restriction(s) or abatement of the illegal unit.
7. Income Reporting. In order to facilitate the city’s obligation to identify adequate sites for housing in accordance with Government Code sections 65583.1 and 65852.2, the following requirements must be satisfied:
(a) With the building-permit application, the applicant must provide the city with an estimate of the projected annualized rent that will be charged for the ADU or JADU. (b) Within 90 days after each yearly anniversary of the issuance of the building permit, the owner must report the actual rent charged for the ADU or JADU during the prior year. If the city does not receive the report within the 90-day period, the owner is in violation of this Code, and the city may send the owner a notice of violation and allow the owner another 30 days to submit the report. If the owner fails to
submit the report within the 30-day period, the city may enforce this provision in accordance with applicable law.
8. Notice of Construction.
(a) At least ten business days before starting any construction of an ADU or JADU, the property owner must give written notice to all the owners of record of each of the adjacent residential parcels, which notice must include the following information:
(i) Notice that construction has been authorized,
(ii) The anticipated start and end dates for construction, (iii) The hours of construction,
(iv) Contact information for the project manager (for construction-related complaints), and (v) Contact information for the Building & Safety Department. (b) This notice requirement does not confer a right on the noticed persons or on anyone else to comment on the project before permits are issued. Approval is ministerial. Under state law, the City has no discretion in approving or denying a particular ADU project under this section. This notice requirement is purely to promote neighborhood awareness and expectation.
9. Building and Safety. All ADUs and JADUs must comply with all local building code requirements.
E. Specific ADU Requirements. The following requirements apply only to ADUs that require an ADU permit under subsection (C)(2) above.

(b) An attached ADU that is created on a lot with an existing primary dwelling is further limited to 50 percent of the floor area of the existing primary dwelling (c) Application of other development standards in this subsection (E), such as FAR or lot coverage, might further limit the size of the ADU, but no application of the percent-based size limit in subsection (f)(1)(B) above or of an FAR or lot coverage limit or open-space requirement may require the ADU to be less than 800 square feet
2. Floor Area Ratio. No ADU subject to this subsection (E) may cause the total FAR of the lot to exceed 45 percent, subject to subsection (E)(1)(c) above.
3. Setbacks
(a) An ADU that is subject to this subsection must conform to a 20 foot front-yard setback. (b) An ADU that is subject to this subsection (E) must conform to 4 foot side- and rear-yard setbacks. (c) No setback is required for an ADU that is subject to this subsection (E) if the ADU is constructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as an existing structure. (d) If new construction is an addition to an existing structure, only the addition must comply with the 4 foot side or rear setback.
4. Lot Coverage. No ADU subject to this subsection (E) may cause the total lot coverage of the lot to exceed 50 percent, subject to subsection (E)(1)(c) above.
5. Minimum Open Space. No ADU subject to this subsection (f) may cause the total percentage of open space of the lot to fall below 50 percent, subject to subsection (E)(1)(c) above.
6. Height. No ADU subject to this subsection (E) may exceed 16 feet in height above grade, measured to the peak of the structure.

9. Architectural Requirements
(a) The materials and colors of the exterior walls, roof, and windows and doors must match the appearance and architectural design of those of the primary dwelling. (b) The roof slope must match that of the dominant roof slope of the primary dwelling. The dominant roof slope is the slope shared by the largest portion of the roof. (c) The exterior lighting must be limited to down-lights or as otherwise required by the building or fire code.

1. Impact Fees
(a) No impact fee is required for an ADU that is less than 750 square feet in size. For purposes of this subsection (F)(1), “impact fee” means a “fee” under the Mitigation Fee Act (Gov. Code § 66000(b)) and a
fee under the Quimby Act (Gov. Code § 66477). “Impact fee” here does not include any connection fee or capacity charge for water or sewer service.
(b) Any impact fee that is required for an ADU that is 750 square feet or larger in size must be charged proportionately in relation to the square footage of the primary dwelling unit. (E.g., the floor area of the ADU, divided by the floor area of the primary dwelling, times the typical fee amount charged for a new dwelling.)
2. Utility Fees
(a) If an ADU is constructed with a new single-family home, a separate utility connection directly between the ADU and the utility and payment of the normal connection fee and capacity charge for a new dwelling are required.
(b) Except as described in subsection (F)(2)(a), converted ADUs on a single-family lot that are created under subsection (C)(1)(a) above are not required to have a new or separate utility connection directly between the ADU and the utility. Nor is a connection fee or capacity charge required. (c) Except as described in subsection (F)(2)(a), all ADUs that are not covered by subsection (F)(2)(b) require a new, separate utility connection directly between the ADU and the utility. (i) The connection is subject to a connection fee or capacity charge that is proportionate to the burden created by the ADU based on either the floor area or the number of drainage-fixture units (DFU) values, as defined by the Uniform Plumbing Code, upon the water or sewer system. (ii) The portion of the fee or charge that is charged by the City may not exceed the reasonable cost of providing this service.
G. Nonconforming ADUs and Discretionary Approval. Any proposed ADU or JADU that does not conform to the objective standards set forth in subsections (A) through (G) of this section may be allowed by the City with a conditional use permit, in accordance with the other provisions of this title.
