INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CERTIFICATE OF SUFFICIENCY (6-EX-9) AND
HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT (ENV-001)
The unsigned Certificate of Sufficiency is generated by Right of Way Engineering upon completion of the appraisal maps, and shall be sent with the initial transmittal of the maps to the appropriate design office (e.g., Design, Traffic, Maintenance, or Hydraulics) to be approved by both the Project Engineer and the Senior Design Engineer. This approval authority cannot be subdelegated. The certification shall apply to all right of way parcels listed, by Right of Way Engineering, under the heading, “PARCEL NUMBER(S).” Right of Way Appraisals may perform preliminary work based on the initial transmittal of appraisal maps; however, the appraisal report cannot be approved for the first written offer until Right of Way receives the completed Certificate of Sufficiency.

The Hazardous Substances Disclosure Document (HSDD) is a required attachment to the Certificate of Sufficiency. The HSDD shall be approved by the District Hazardous Waste Coordinator. The disclosure(s) shall apply to all right of way parcels listed under the heading, “R/W PARCEL NUMBER(S).” The parcel number(s) should be typed inside of the parentheses located to the left of the applicable disclosure statement. Right of Way Engineering will send a copy of the appraisal maps to the District Hazardous Waste Coordinator at the same time as the initial transmittal to Right of Way Appraisals, to trigger the production of the HSDD. The design office is responsible for obtaining the approved HSDD for attachment to the Certificate of Sufficiency.

The attached flowchart is the recommended process and outlines the following: Once the appropriate signatures have been obtained, the original Certificate of Sufficiency and HSDD(s) with attachment(s), if any, are sent to Right of Way Appraisals, and a copy of only the Certificate of Sufficiency is sent to Right of Way Engineering. Right of Way Engineering transmits the final appraisal maps to Right of Way Appraisals, if necessary.

The original Certificate of Sufficiency is not valid unless the approved HSDD is attached.

Any revision to the maps will require a new Certificate of Sufficiency. A new HSDD will be required only if the right of way requirements have increased.

1 TYPE OF REPORT
As the result of a market valuation with criteria easily understood and the analysis clearly stated. A succinct and truncated version of the narrative appraisal is being offered consistent with Section 7.02.12.00 of the Right of Way Manual.

INTRODUCTION
This Capital Preventative Maintenance Project (CAPM) is located on Pacific Coast Highway (SR-1) from Paseo De Las Delicias in Redondo Beach to Dewey Street in Santa Monica. The purpose of this project is to preserve and extend the life of the existing pavement and improve ride quality. The work mainly involves upgrading Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) curb ramps, repairing concrete pavement, reconstructing bus pads, replacing asphalt concrete pavement with Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) at major intersections, cold planning and overlaying to rehabilitate pavement.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this appraisal is to estimate the fair market value of the subject land, as of the effective date of value. A Highway Easement (HE) for Parcel No. 81688 is needed for the state to construct and reconstruct new and existing curb ramps for the compliance of the current 2010 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Standards for Accessible Design. Additional discussion of the project limits and the construction in the manner proposed will follow.

PROPERTY RIGHTS APPRAISED
The property rights appraised consist of a highway easement (HE). As detailed later in this report, this easement impacts only a small portion of the subject larger parcel. To estimate the value of the easement, the appraiser will establish a land value for the subject property, based on its highest and best use, as vacant.

By definition, the ownership of real estate is endowed with a bundle of rights. The concept bundle of rights maintains that like a “bundle of sticks,” real property ownership may be wholly intact (fee simple estate) or may be conveyed in part to a third party.

According to the Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, an easement is the “conveyance of certain property rights, but not ownership, to a parcel of real estate.” With respect to time, easements may be either permanent or temporary in nature, with either specific or indefinite time frames.

EXTRAORDINARY ASSUMPTIONS AND HYPOTHETICAL CONDITIONS
A statement of Assumption and Limiting Conditions is included in this report. Extraordinary assumptions: An assumption is a statement or condition which is presumed or assumed to be true and from which a conclusion can be drawn. USPAP defines an assumption as “that which is taken to be true.” An extraordinary assumption is an assumption, directly related to a specific assignment, which, if found to be 237
2 false, could alter that appraiser’s opinions or conclusions. No extraordinary assumptions were made in this report.

Hypothetical conditions: An assumption made contrary to fact, but which is assumed for the purpose of discussion, analysis, or formulation of opinions. A hypothetical condition assumes a condition which is known to be contrary to fact whereas an extraordinary assumption assumes a condition or a fact which is merely unknown or uncertain. No hypothetical conditions were made in this report.

PROPERTY OWNERSHIP
A preliminary title report has been provided to the appraiser as of the date of this appraisal. Title to the estate or interest in the land is vested as City of Hermosa Beach. The appraiser relied on the Right of Way Map No. P2-1152, as well as a visual inspection of the subject, aerial images and conversations with Caltrans’ Design team to develop conclusions for the requirement. All other matters of record to the property reveal no risk or adverse conditions affecting its value. It is the appraiser’s belief that the subject was perceived correctly. This has all been presented in this report.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Identified as Caltrans Parcel 81688 (APN: 4187-024-902), the subject property is located at 710 Pier Ave, in Hermosa Beach, California, in between Pier Avenue and 11th Place adjacent SR-1. This parcel has a total land area of approximately 207,663 square feet according to the Caltrans Right of Way Appraisal Map. Physical vehicular access to the site is established and located along Pier Avenue and 11th Place. All utilities are available to the subject site upon visual inspection. According to public records, the subject property is improved with a Community Center building measuring 2,397 square feet, built in 1962.

Miscellaneous site improvements include landscaping, streetlights, monument signs, parking stalls, asphalt paving, water fountain, skate park, tennis courts and sidewalks. As the requirement affects only a small portion of the larger parcel, a limited description of the subject parcel has been given.

LAND USE DESIGNATION
Land use designations indicate the intended use of each parcel of land in the city. They are developed to provide both a vision of the organization of uses in the city and a flexible structure to allow for changes in economic conditions and community visions.

The subject’s land use designation is under Public Facilities. The Public Facilities designation is intended to assure the City and other institutional organizations have adequate space to carry out the duties and responsibilities of the organization. The Public Facilities designation applies to both public and quasi-public uses and may include physical facilities or infrastructure related equipment or structures needed to provide services.

Civic-related administrative offices, community space, operational yards, and educational or institutional facilities are the primary uses allowed in this designation. Public utility structures or corridors, plazas, and historic landmarks or monuments are also allowed within this designation. Wireless telecommunications facilities may be allowed in this designation when co-located with public buildings and determined to be compatible with and avoid nuisances to surrounding uses.

ZONING
Zoning districts are an implementation mechanism of the land use designations and provide greater details regarding specific allowances and prohibitions of uses, dimensional requirements such as building setbacks, 238
3 parking standards, and building heights. Land use designations and zoning districts must be compatible but need not be exactly the same. Zoning districts must be within the range of the allowed intensity and uses found in the city’s General Plan.

The subject is zoned Open Space (OS). The OS zone is intended to prohibit intensive urban development to those primary open space areas of the city which are necessary to assure permanent open space in and for public parks and recreation areas; and where such intensive urban development would adversely affect public use and natural environmental benefits.

Development Standards for OS Zone
x Lot Coverage: Maximum building coverage of land area in the O-S zone shall not exceed ten percent.
x Height: No building shall exceed a height of two stories or twenty-five (25) feet above the existing or finished grade, whichever is less.
x Building Setbacks: All structures shall be set back from all lot lines not less than twenty (20) feet. x Off Street Parking: No more than ten percent of land area shall be used for off-street parking required or not.

The complete zoning standards can be found in the link below. https://www.codepublishing.com/CA/HermosaBeach/#!/HermosaBeach17/HermosaBeach1730.html#17.30

ACROSS THE FENCE (ATF) METHODOLOGY
As of this date, there are no plans for
development of this government owned site
and the property will remain “open space”
for the foreseeable future. It is important to
note however, that the premise of this
appraisal is to establish just compensation
using either part A or part B of the definition
of market value. Since an appraisal is
necessary to ensure compliance with the
Constitution in arriving at a conclusion of
just compensation, it was necessary for the
appraiser to implement Part B of the
definition of fair market value. Hence, the
appraiser decided to apply “Across the
Fence” (ATF) methodology to derive the
estimated value for the subject property. The
definition of ATF valuation states that the
value of the subject land should be worth at
least as much as the adjacent land or
commensurate to the land it passes through. Across the Fence methodology is typically used to value special purpose properties like the subject, for which there is no relevant comparable market.

The subject larger parcel is bordered by commercial zones to the north (SPA-8 zone) and south (General and Highway Commercial zone), along SR-1 Commercial designations provide for a wide variety of retail, restaurant, office, and other uses that provide goods or services. Commercial designations are organized based on the scale and type of goods or services provided. The most localized designations are intended to Subject
SPA-8
(Commercial
Zone)
SR-1
General and HWY
Commercial (C-3)
239
4 serve a neighborhood and residents within the immediate vicinity, while other commercial designations are intended to serve the entire community or the region.

Based on Across the Fence Methodology, it was determined that the subject property would be worth at least as much as the adjacent commercial zones. On this basis, it is in the opinion of the appraiser, that the subject will be appraised as C-3, General and Highway Commercial, utilizing the "Across the Fence" methodology.

The purpose of the C-3 General and Highway Commercial zone is to provide opportunities for the full range of office, retail, and service businesses deemed suitable for the city, and appropriate for the Pacific Coast Highway and Aviation Boulevard commercial corridors, including business not appropriate for other zones because they attract heavy vehicular traffic or have specific adverse impacts.

Permitted uses include but are not limited to the following: Alcohol beverage establishment, animal hospitals, assembly halls, bakery, bowling alley, clinic, dental and/or medical, clubs, department stores, drugstores, food and beverage market, hotels, motels, parts and accessories, retail sales, offices, general parking lots and/or structures, restaurant/café, and supermarkets.

Development Standards for C-3 Zone
x No building shall exceed a maximum height of thirty-five (35) feet. x Front Yard Setback. No lot need provide a front yard except as may be required by a precise plan.

The complete zoning standards can be found in the link below. https://www.codepublishing.com/CA/HermosaBeach/#!/HermosaBeach17/HermosaBeach1726.html#17. 26 HIGHEST AND BEST USE
As the proposed project is for the purpose of estimating the value of the easement; only an analysis of the subject “as though vacant” and ready for development is appropriate.

As Vacant: Analyzing the highest and best use of the land as though vacant helps in identifying comparable properties. The subject property has an irregular land configuration and contains 207,663 square feet of land area. In addition, the property sits on a signalized corner, with good visibility and is adjacent to State Route 1 southbound. All public utilities are available to the site upon visual inspection. The physical characteristics of the subject parcel are adequate to accommodate all legally permissible uses within the C-3 zone.

Furthermore, the subject is bordered by underlying commercial land uses and adjacent commercials zones.

Residential uses are prohibited within these zones as the C-3 zone is intended to provide a full range of office, retail commercial, and service commercial uses needed by residents of, and visitors to, the city and region. Therefore, a commercial development is maximally productive in the current market considering the zoning, neighborhood uses, and market trends. Applying the definition of the highest and best use, it is the appraiser’s opinion that the highest and best use of the subject site, as vacant, is for any commercial development consistent with the General and Highway Commercial zone. 240
5 PARCEL VALUATION
Parcel Number 81688-1: Highway Easement (HE)
Incorporating a land area of 28 square feet, the proposed irregular shaped taking (HE) is located adjacent to the southbound lanes of SR-1, along the southeastern corner of the subject larger parcel. The project proposes to reconstruct the sidewalk and curb ramp at this location. According to the Design Engineer, the portion outside of State R/W will be reconstructed at part of the curb ramp. There are no improvements within the taking other than the existing sidewalk according to Design. Caltrans will be acquiring the right of use for this area as an ADA compliant path. Without this area, Caltrans does not have enough clearance within the existing sidewalk to have sufficient ADA path width. Vehicular access to the site along this location will remain open during construction. Temporary pedestrian access routes will be provided during curb ramp construction, which is expected to last approximately 5 working days.

DATA ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION
The total valuation is comprised of a fee value of the land (as if vacant) and any miscellaneous improvements affected by the project. There are three approaches to value: the Cost Approach, the Income Approach, and the Sales Comparison Approach. The Sales Comparison Approach was found to be the most pertinent appraisal methodology to value vacant land. Therefore, the Sales Comparison Approach has been utilized to estimate the fee value of the land on a price per square foot basis.

Pertinent market data from the surrounding neighborhoods was analyzed to derive the value for the subject property. Recent market data was gathered from the following sources: Los Angeles County Assessor’s Office, Zimas, multiple listing service, Costar, and Landvision. Three comparable sales were selected to establish the basis for valuation of commercial land. Please reference the Valuation Analysis Spreadsheet and the Comparable Data pages, included in this report for detailed information regarding these sales.

The real property rights conveyed by each of the comparable sales were fee simple interest. Analysis of the comparable data demonstrates that in determining price, consideration is given to certain salient elements of comparison. A quantitative analysis has been made to accurately assess the market’s indication of the contributory value of these factors. These influences and their effects on value are based on information received from real estate brokers active in the subject market area.

SALES COMPARABLES
Land Comparable Sale #1 - This comparable sale is located at 15101 Crenshaw Blvd, in the city of Gardena, approximately 4.4 miles northeast of the subject. The Los Angeles County Assessor’s record identifies this property as APN #(s): 4070-001-001. The zoning designation is C2, allowing for commercial uses, similar to the subject’s ATF zoning. Although the property was improved at the time of sale, the property sold for land value only. The property is a semi rectangular parcel, encompassing 13,748 sf of land. Located at a signalized corner, this property is approximately 2.3 miles west of the southbound lanes of I-110. Recorded on 03/24/2021, this parcel sold for $1,750,000.00, generating a gross unit value of $127.29 per square foot.

Land Comparable Sale #2 - This comparable sale is located at 1241 Torrance Blvd, in the city of Torrance, approximately 5.7 miles southeast of the subject. The Los Angeles County Assessor’s record identifies this property as APN #(s): 7350-011-054. The zoning designation is C-3, General Commercial, similar to the subject’s ATF zone. The property is a rectangular vacant parcel, encompassing 5,713 sf of land according to public records. Located facing a major arterial, this property is approximately 0.75 mile west of the 241
6 southbound lanes of I-110. Recorded on 04/15/21, this parcel sold for $400,000.00, generating a gross unit value of $70.02 per square foot.

Land Comparable Sale #3 - This comparable sale is located at 10212 S La Cienega Blvd, in the city of Los Angeles, approximately 5.7 miles northeast of the subject. The Los Angeles County Assessor’s record identifies this property as APN #(s): 4038-003-035. The zoning designation is C3, Heavy Commercial, similar to the subject’s ATF zoning designation. The property is an irregular shaped, corner parcel, encompassing 28,162 sf of land. Located facing of a major arterial, this property is adjacent to the southbound lanes of I-405. Recorded on 02/19/2021, this parcel sold for $3,000,000.00, generating a gross unit value of $106.53 per square foot.

RECONCILIATION
This appraisal is based on a per square foot basis which is considered the most common unit of comparison for this property. Due to a lack of recently sold vacant parcels in the nearby area, the search for similar sales was expanded. Furthermore, this area is entirely built out and most land has already been subdivided into smaller lots, resulting in extremely limited vacant land comparables to match the size of the subject. Due to a severe lack of sales, the use of significantly smaller sales was considered in this analysis. In theory, demand (and the market of buyers) is higher for smaller sites than larger acreage parcels. According to discussions with brokers and market participants in this residential real estate market, typically sites smaller than one acre in this neighborhood tend to sell for a higher unit value than those lots that are larger in size.

This is attributed to a larger number of participants bidding on sites within this size range.

The vacant land sales price for the comparable sales utilized for this value estimate are shown below. All three sales are deemed good indicators of value, as all three sales have similar underlying commercial uses and are located along arterial streets. Comparable Sales #1 and #3 are given the most weight, as they are the most representative of the subject’s current market value. Based on the foregoing analysis, an array of the comparable data is as follows:

COMPARABLE #1 COMPARABLE #2 COMPARABLE #3
SALE PRICE $1,750,000.00 $400,000.00 $3,000,000.00
SALE RECORDING DATE 3/24/2021 4/15/2021 2/19/2021
GROSS PRICE / SQURE FOOT $127.29 $70.02 $106.53
Subject to limiting conditions and assumptions made in this report, as of the date of this appraisal, it is the appraiser’s opinion that the land value of $100.00 per square foot is the best indication of value for the subject parcel.
242
7 VALUE OF THE HIGHWAY EASEMENT
The proposed Highway Easement requirement for Parcel 81688-1 is necessary for the ADA compliant project. As the property owner will not be permitted to modify or obstruct the easement area due to the ADA compliance, the permanent burden upon the fee is tantamount to a fee acquisition and has been given 99% fee value. A new curve ramp will be constructed within the highway easement to meet current ADA standards.

A recapitulation of the computation of the land value within the highway easement impacted by the proposed acquisition is as follows:

Parcel 81688-1 Highway Easement: 28 SF x $100.00 x 99% $ 2,772.00 Value of the Land-Within the Highway Easement area $ 2,772.00

VALUE OF THE MISCELLANEOUS SITE IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE HIGHWAY

EASEMENT
As stated above, the acquisition area is improved with concrete paving which will be reconstructed at part of the curb ramp. The end project will look like the existing condition; therefore, no miscellaneous site improvements will be affected.

SEVERANCE DAMAGES
Severance damage is a loss in value of remaining property after acquisition and construction in the manner proposed. Severance damages are valued by appraisal of the remainder as a portion of the total property in the before condition and as a reminder in the after condition (disregarding the benefits of the construction project). The remainder is considered damaged if worth less after the project construction because of a legally compensable reason.

Curable Damages – Reestablishing improvements on the remainder. Curable damages are accrued in order to restore the property within the affected area in conformance to the before condition. The difference between the Replacement Cost New (RCN) and the Value in Place (VIP) is the compensable amount for those affected improvements that need to be replaced.

Incurable Damages – The loss in value that accrues to the remainder which cannot be physically or economically cured. Based on a careful analysis of the proposed acquisition, there are no incurable damages resulting from the proposed project and/or the proposed acquisition.

Neither Curable nor Incurable Damages were found to accrue during the inspection. Access to the site along this location will remain open during construction. Fire hydrants, water valves, electrical boxes, and streetlight poles will be protected in place, adjusted to grade or relocated. Landscaping, monument signs, parking and utilities lines will not be affected according to the Design team.

BENEFITS
Careful consideration of the subject property revealed that no benefits accrue from the proposed acquisition or the construction in the manner proposed.

Chapter 3 (General Provisions) of the Caltrans Construction Manual, Section 3-702 defines the Contractor's responsibility with regard to convenience of the public and public traffic in connection with the Contractor's operations. Attention is also directed to other sections within the document relating to public safety, detours, traffic control during construction. Relating to access, Section 7-1.08 addresses the following:

The contractor has a contractual obligation to provide for the convenience of the public and public traffic.

Section 7-1.03 [7-1.08], “Public Convenience,” of the Standard Specifications requires that operations be conducted in such a way as to present the least possible obstruction and inconvenience to the public. The public consists of anyone passing through or affected by construction operations, including pedestrians and residents, as well as vehicular traffic. Ensure that the contractor provides accessible temporary routes through and around work zones for those pedestrians with disabilities.

Access to this developed property will be maintained at all times during construction. Coordination of when and how the work is to be done shall be properly conducted with ample notification given to the property owner.

SUMMARY OF THE BASIS FOR JUST COMPENSATION
The State’s proposed acquisition of the subject property consists of a Highway Easement (HE), as shown on the attached Right of Way Appraisal Map. This right of way requirements is necessary for the proposed project to improve compliance for accessible pedestrian facilities on the highway system within Los Angeles County’s project limits. The State’s contractor will reconstruct the in-kind existing curb to meet ADA guidelines. Coordination of when and how the work is to be done shall be properly conducted with ample notification given to the property owner. The property owner will have an improved curb that is ADA compliant constructed by the State contractor.

Implementing the legal, physical, and financial factors for the subject property, the ATF highest and best use for the property “as vacant” is for any conforming C-3 use, consistent with the adjacent zoning designation and surrounding neighborhood. The Sales Comparison Approach was utilized to estimate the fair market value of the subject property on per square foot basis. The Cost Approach and Income Capitalization Approach were not considered applicable and were not utilized.

No Curable nor Incurable Damages resulted from the proposed project and/or the proposed acquisition.

Conversely, the State’s proposed project will not favorably enhance the market value of the subject property; therefore, there is no evidence of Benefits.

COMMENTS:

Corner parcel adjacent to high traffic arterial and I-405 southbound. Transaction information confirmed through public records and Costar. This was an investment purchase of a SF parcel of land. The site was stated to have been sold 'as-is'. The property was confirmed to have been sold with no improvements as the prior residential homes had been demolished prior to sale. There were no 1031 exchanges reported for either party. The seller reported the motivation for the sale was simply wishing to move on from the site due to the advanced age of the owners.

This property shares a similar zoning as the subject and residential properties are prohibited.

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0522
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of September 13, 2022

PURCHASE OF PUBLIC WORKS VEHICLE
(Public Works Director Joe SanClemente)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Authorize the purchase of one 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning Electric Truck in the amount of $55,273 to replace a 2001 Ford 450; and

2. Authorize the appropriation of $9,273 from the Equipment Replacement Fund’s fund balance to the Administration and Engineering Division in the Equipment Replacement Fund.

Executive Summary:

The City of Hermosa Beach is committed to providing first-class services to the community. Fulfilling this commitment relies heavily on the availability of appropriate vehicles within the Public Works Department. The 2001 Ford 450, which was used as a dump truck for asphalt disposal, is due for replacement in Fiscal Year 2022-23.

Staff diligently evaluated the City’s Clean Fleet Vehicle Purchasing Policy and the department’s operational needs to select the most appropriate replacement vehicle currently available. Aligned with the City’s clean fleet goals, staff recommends replacing the gasoline-fueled vehicle with an electric vehicle.

Background:

Public Works vehicles are included within the City’s Equipment Replacement Schedule. As part of the Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget process, City Council approved the replacement of the 2001 Ford 450 with a Ford F-150 Lighting. The 2001 Ford 450 has reached the end of its service life and no longer meets the needs of the department.

Discussion:

The 2001 Ford 450 was budgeted to be replaced with the fully electric Ford F-150 Lightning and has a purchase price of $55,272.31 (Attachment A). The purchase price represents an increase of $9,272.31 over the budgeted amount of $46,000 reflecting the increase in cost for the 2023 model.

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0522
The 2022 model is no longer available due to high demand.

The 2001 Ford 450 has been in service for approximately 21 years and was used as a dump truck for asphalt hauling. The vehicle is scheduled for replacement as it has reached the end of its service life, and no longer meets the needs of the department with the recent purchase of an asphalt trailer that facilitates safer and more efficient asphalt hauling.

The proposed 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning replacement vehicle adheres to the City’s Clean Fleet Vehicle Purchasing Policy and would better fulfill the long-term needs of the department.

General Plan Consistency:

This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan. Relevant Policies are listed below:

Governance Element
Goal 1. A high degree of transparency and integrity in the decision-making-process.

Policy:
· 1.6. Long-term considerations. Prioritize decisions that provide long-term community benefit and discourage decisions that provide short-term community benefit but reduce long-term opportunities.

Sustainability and Conversation Element
Goal 1. Hermosa Beach is a low-carbon municipal organization, reducing greenhouse gas emissions at a rate that meets or exceeds 80% below 2005 levels by 2030.

Policies:
· 1.1. Low-carbon municipality. Demonstrate environmental leadership and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from municipal facilities and operations by at least 80% below 2005 levels by 2030.
· 1.2. Highest return on investment. Prioritize the implementation of greenhouse gas reduction projects that simultaneously reduce ongoing operational costs to the City.

Fiscal Impact:

The total purchase cost of the vehicle is $55,272.31, of which $46,000 is appropriated in the Equipment Replacement Fund under the Public Works Administration and Engineering Division.

Staff recommends appropriating an additional $9,272.31 from the Equipment Replacement Fund’s estimated fund balance of $3,709,257 to cover the increased cost.

ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF
HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, ADDING CHAPTER 5.80

OF THE HERMOSA BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO

CANNABIS DELIVERY IN THE CITY AND AMENDING
SECTION 1.10.040 TO ADD THAT VIOLATIONS ARE

SUBJECT TO ADMINISTRATIVE PENALTY PROCEDURES
(City Manager Suja Lowenthal)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Waive the full second reading and adopt by title an Ordinance of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, adding Chapter 5.80 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code relating to cannabis delivery into the City and amending Section 1.10.040 to add that violations of Chapter 5.80 are subject to administrative penalty procedures (Attachment 1); and

2. Direct staff to print and publish the summary ordinance in a newspaper of general circulation within 15 days following adoption and post it on the city’s bulletin for 30 days.

Executive Summary:

At its August 9, 2022 meeting, City Council introduced and waived first reading of an ordinance, adding Chapter 5.80 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code relating to cannabis delivery into the City and amending Section 1.10.040 to add that violations of Chapter 5.80 are subject to administrative penalty procedures. The proposed text would amend the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) to allow delivery of cannabis into the City from businesses located outside the City.

Background:

As directed, staff presents this item to allow Council to consider an amendment to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) to allow delivery of cannabis into the City from businesses located outside the City.

State and City Law Governing Medical Cannabis
In 1996, the voters of the State of California approved Proposition 215, entitled the Compassionate Use Act, the intent of which was to enable persons who are in need of medical marijuana to use it City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 of 8 Printed on 9/6/2022
powered by Legistar™331
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0547
without fear of prosecution under limited, specified circumstances.

In 2004, the Legislature enacted Senate Bill 420 (referred to as the Medical Marijuana Program) to clarify the scope of Proposition 215 and to provide qualifying patients and primary caregivers who cultivate marijuana with a limited defense to certain specified State criminal statutes. Assembly Bills 2650 (2010) and 1300 (2011) amended the Medical Marijuana Program to expressly recognize the authority of counties and cities to “[a]dopt local ordinances that regulate the location, operation, or establishment of a medical marijuana cooperative or collective” and to civilly and criminally enforce such ordinances.

In 2013, in City of Riverside v. Inland Empire Patients Health and Wellness Center, Inc., the California Supreme Court held that “[n]othing in the [Compassionate Use Act] or the [Medical Marijuana Program] expressly or impliedly limits the inherent authority of a local jurisdiction, by its own ordinances, to regulate the use of its land….” Additionally, in Maral v. City of Live Oak, the Court of Appeal affirmed the ability of local government entities to prohibit the cultivation of marijuana under its land-use authority, holding that “there is no right - and certainly no constitutional right - to cultivate medical marijuana….”
On October 9, 2015, Governor Brown signed three bills into law - Assembly Bills 266 and 243, and Senate Bill 643 - collectively referred to as the Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act (“MMRSA”). Prior to the passage of the MMRSA, State law provided no legal mechanism for commercial cultivation of marijuana for medicinal purposes and Federal law prohibited all cultivation of marijuana. Until the MMRSA was passed, cultivation of marijuana for medicinal purposes in California was restricted to individual qualified patients or their primary care givers for noncommercial purposes and limited to personal quantities. The MMRSA became effective on January 1, 2016 and contained provisions to govern the cultivating, processing, transporting, testing, and distributing of medical marijuana to qualified patients. The MMRSA also contained statutory provisions that:
• Set up a “dual licensing” scheme which requires dispensaries and cultivators to obtain a local license prior to requesting and obtaining a license from the State; no dispensary or cultivation activity may lawfully operate without both a State and local license; • Allow the City to completely prohibit the delivery of marijuana by requiring a local government that wishes to prevent marijuana delivery activity from operating within the local government’s boundaries to enact an ordinance affirmatively banning such delivery activity (see Business & Professions Code § 19340(a));
• Preserves the ability of a qualified patient and/or primary caregiver to cultivate for personal, non-commercial purposes, sets new limits on such cultivation, and excepts such personal cultivation from State cultivation licensing requirements. Furthermore, the MMRSA allows local City of Hermosa Beach Page 2 of 8 Printed on 9/6/2022
powered by Legistar™332
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0547
cultivation from State cultivation licensing requirements. Furthermore, the MMRSA allows local governments to enact ordinances expressing their intent to prohibit the cultivation of marijuana and their intent not to administer a conditional permit program for the cultivation of marijuana (see Health & Safety Code § 11362.777(c)(4));
• Expressly provide that the MMRSA does not supersede or limit local law enforcement activity, enforcement of local ordinances, or enforcement of local permit or licensing requirements regarding marijuana (see Bus. & Prof. Code § 19315(a)); and • Expressly provide that the MMRSA does not limit the authority or remedies of a local government under any provision of law regarding marijuana, including but not limited to local governments’ right to make and enforce within its limits all police regulations not in conflict with general laws (see Bus. & Prof. Code § 19316(c)).

The MMRSA, however, also stated that if a city or county had not adopted land use regulations by March 1, 2016, to either regulate or ban cultivation of marijuana for medicinal purposes, the State would become the sole authority to issue cultivation licenses in that jurisdiction, meaning no local license would be required.

At its March 8, 2016 meeting, City Council adopted Ordinance 16-1362 amending sections 17.42.110 and 17.26.030 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) to expressly prohibit all commercial medical marijuana uses in the City, cannabis deliveries to any location within the city, and prohibit cultivation for medical use by a qualified patient or primary caregiver. This ordinance codified the long -standing rule that since cannabis uses were not listed as a permitted use in the HBMC, medical marijuana uses were not permitted in the City.

State and City Law Governing Recreational Cannabis
On November 8, 2016, Proposition 64 was adopted for adult use of marijuana act (AUMA). In addition to other items, AUMA regulated the use of marijuana for personal and commercial purposes, including the recreational use of marijuana by adults over 21 years of age. Ultimately, AUMA expanded the permissions under MMRSA. Proposition 64 retains the local control that was clarified by the courts whereby cities can determine whether to allow or prohibit commercial cannabis activity in its jurisdiction and under what terms those uses would be permitted. Cities throughout California rushed to adopt local ordinances by January 1, 2018. Without a local ordinance specifying what activities were permitted or prohibited, a valid State license would be the only requirement to open and operate any commercial marijuana business in any commercial zone in the City.

At its November 28, 2017 meeting, the City Council adopted Ordinance 17-1380 amending Title 17 of the HBMC to expressly prohibit all commercial cannabis activities in the City and prohibit outdoor cannabis cultivation for personal use. A person may cultivate no more than six living cannabis plants City of Hermosa Beach Page 3 of 8 Printed on 9/6/2022
powered by Legistar™333
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0547
inside a private residence in accordance with Health and Safety Code Section 11362.2.

Current State law allows qualified patients and their caregivers to cultivate and possess cannabis for personal use in order to treat certain medical conditions. It also allows the personal possession and use of recreational cannabis. However, cities retain their authority to reasonably regulate the business of cultivating, processing, and selling cannabis and related products. The sale of cannabis for any purpose is currently prohibited in the City of Hermosa Beach.

State and City Law Governing Cannabis Delivery
The Bureau of Cannabis Control (now the Department of Cannabis Control) adopted California Code of Regulations, title 16, section 5416, subdivision (d), allowing delivery statewide. Regulation 5416 (d) can arguably be interpreted to mean that delivery of cannabis goods is authorized in any city within California, regardless of whether the city regulates or bans deliveries within its borders. Most recently, the litigation challenging this regulation as violative of AUMA was dismissed as not ripe for adjudication because the court found the Bureau’s regulation did not conflict with a city’s right to control or ban delivery. Delivery and transport of commercial cannabis remains an open issue yet to be fully resolved by the legislature or the courts.

A local jurisdiction cannot ban transport of cannabis on public roads. However, delivery of cannabis must comply with local law. Accordingly, the most consensus position on this issue among cities (and that put out by the League of California Cities City Attorney’s Department Cannabis Regulation Committee) is that cities may ban or regulate deliveries within their borders. However, cities cannot prevent a delivery service from using public roads to pass through its jurisdiction.

Recent Local Cannabis Discussions and Decisions
On November 17, 2021, the Hermosa Beach City Clerk received a petition from the cannabis industry for the purposes of adopting an initiative that would repeal Hermosa Beach’s existing ban on all commercial cannabis business operations and allow commercial cannabis operations in the City. The initiative measure does not include a tax on cannabis. At City Council’s regular meeting on November 23, 2021, Mayor Detoy requested, and a unanimous vote of the City Council supported, directing staff to place on the next regular session agenda an item addressing the City’s options.

At its December 14, 2021 meeting, City Council directed the City Manager to form an Advisory Group to explore policy issues and provide City Council with input on whether the City’s current ban on cannabis business operations should be modified. The group held a total of six public meetings and at its sixth and final meeting on March 29, 2022, the Cannabis Advisory Group participated in a final voting process regarding its support of key policy issues and options of the City Council.

A majority of the group indicated that they felt there is currently adequate access to legal cannabis.

When asked if Hermosa Beach should lift the ban on cannabis delivery, a majority of the group City of Hermosa Beach Page 4 of 8 Printed on 9/6/2022

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0547
When asked if Hermosa Beach should lift the ban on cannabis delivery, a majority of the group indicated yes, but did not support that delivery being based within the City. The group’s final report and recommendations were presented to the City Council at its April 12, 2022 meeting.

At its March 22, 2022 meeting, the City Clerk reported to the Council that the initiative petition had acquired sufficient signatures to qualify for the ballot. The City Council opted not to adopt the initiative by ordinance but as required by law, to instead submit the ordinance, without alteration, to the voters in the November 8, 2022 Municipal Election.

At its May 24, 2022 meeting, City Council voted to oppose the industry-sponsored initiative. Council also directed staff to bring to Council for its consideration an ordinance allowing delivery of cannabis from outside the City and a measure that would impose a tax on cannabis businesses, should they be permitted in the City. State law requires any new local taxes to be approved by the voters (Proposition 218).

At its July 26, 2022 meeting, City Council adopted a resolution calling for the placement of a measure on the ballot for the November 8, 2022 General Municipal Election for the submission to the qualified voters of an ordinance adding Chapter 3.44 to Title 3 (Revenue and Finance) of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code, establishing a tax on cannabis businesses operating within the City of Hermosa Beach should the initiative pass or the Council allow delivery at any time in the future.

At its August 9, 2022 meeting, City Council introduced and waived first reading of an Ordinance of the City of Hermosa Beach, California, adding Chapter 5.80 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code relating to cannabis delivery into the City and amending Section 1.10.040 to add that violations of Chapter 5.80 are subject to administrative penalty procedures.

· Delivery activities would be limited to operators with physical locations outside of the City and may take place only between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.; · Entities must be licensed and conform to all relevant legal standards and impose operational requirements to ensure health, safety, and welfare; and · Entities must apply for, and be granted, a cannabis delivery use permit subject to standards that eliminate or minimize to the extent possible any associated impacts.

The City Manager would review any application for a cannabis delivery permit accompanied by the application fee adopted by City Council and only issue a permit if all the required findings are supported by substantial evidence as described in detail in the draft ordinance. Once issued, cannabis delivery permit holders would be required to comply with all applicable State and local laws and tax requirements and maintain detailed books and records.

Under the terms of the draft ordinance, the City Manager would be authorized to establish any additional rules, regulations, and standards governing the issuance, denial, or renewal of cannabis delivery permits, the ongoing operations of a cannabis delivery permit holder and the City’s oversight, City of Hermosa Beach Page 6 of 8 Printed on 9/6/2022

REPORT 22-0547
delivery permits, the ongoing operations of a cannabis delivery permit holder and the City’s oversight, or concerning any other subject determined necessary. Any decision by the City Manager could be appealed to the City Council.

Should Council choose to adopt the ordinance, staff would return to Council with an amendment to the City’s Master Fee Schedule establishing an annual cannabis delivery permit fee and establishing a fine. Staff would also bring an item before the Planning Commission to make minor modifications to the Zoning Code for consistency.

Should City Council choose not to adopt the ordinance and the industry initiative be passed by the voters in the November 8, 2022 General Municipal Election, the delivery of cannabis products would be permitted exclusively by the retail businesses located in the City unless otherwise required by State law.

General Plan Consistency:

This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan. Relevant Policies are listed below:

Governance Element
Goal 1. A high degree of transparency and integrity in the decision-making process.

Policy:
· 1.1 Open Meetings. Maintain the community’s trust by holding meetings in which decisions are being made, that are open and available for all community members to attend, participate, or view remotely.

Goal 2. The Community is active and engaged in decision-making processes.

Policy:
· 2.3 Public participation guidelines. Establish parameters and guidelines to ensure public participation is promoted through diverse methods
Fiscal Impact:

Fiscal impacts associated with lifting the ban on cannabis delivery in the City would include staff time for review and issuance of a cannabis delivery permit. If approved, staff would return to Council with a proposed amendment to the City’s Master Fee Schedule to add an annual cannabis delivery permit fee, as well as to establish a fine for violation of the requirements. If passed by the voters in the November 8, 2022 General Municipal Election, the City would be allowed to tax the gross sales of cannabis delivery activities.

25. Chapter 5.80, Cannabis delivery.

Section 4. The City Council finds that the adoption of this ordinance is not a “project” under California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), because the ordinance will allow for the establishment of cannabis delivery to operate in a similar manner as traditional delivery services which will not cause a direct physical change in the environment nor a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment (Public Resources Code section 21065.) Further, the City Council finds that even if this ordinance is found to be a project under CEQA, the adoption of this ordinance is exempt from environmental review under pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA guidelines because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. The ordinance permits cannabis delivery in the city which businesses will have impacts similar to delivery services which are already authorized within the City. Furthermore, the Ordinance contains operational requirements that prevent any potential impacts on the environment that may be unique to businesses involving cannabis. Further, there is no possibility that this Ordinance would create cumulative impacts that are significant and there are no other significant impacts that could occur as a result of this Ordinance, and there are no unusual circumstances that would cause any such significant impacts
Section 5. Pursuant to California Government Code section 36937, this ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days after its final passage.

Section 6. The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance; cause it to be entered into the City of Hermosa Beach’s book of original ordinances; make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of this meeting; and cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law.

Thank you for voting to lift the ban on cannabis delivery into Hermosa. Please give staff direction to finalize the adoption of this ordinance.
346
This is a good policy decision, as delivery is happening today illegally and has not shown to be a detriment. Now cannabis delivered can be taxed, suppliers can be properly licensed, and if there is a crime committed during the delivery process, it is more likely the crime would be reported to police.

This is also a good strategy decision given Measure M. The timing to lift the ban BEFORE the Measure M vote has shown to be correct, since the Chacker argument in favor of Measure M highlights that delivery for both medical and recreational cannabis is illegal in Hermosa. This ordinance takes away that talking point. Separating retail from delivery will appeal to the majority of voters.

Now we can unite on voting down Elliot Lewis’s Catalyst Cannabis’s Measure M. Interestingly, for someone so vocal on social media, he’s oddly missing from his own ballot arguments.

I hope all 5 council members support this adoption.

INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH ADDING CHAPTER 15.40
TO TITLE 15 OF THE HERMOSA BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE

RELATING TO AN EXPEDITED, STREAMLINED PERMITTING

PROCESS FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS
(Community Development Director Jeannie Naughton)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council consider waiving full reading and introduce by title only an Ordinance of the City of Hermosa Beach adding Chapter 15.40 to Title 15 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code relating to an expedited, streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations (Attachment 1).

Executive Summary:

In 2015, the State of California adopted Assembly Bill 1236 (Chiu), codified as Government Code § 65850.7, which requires local jurisdictions with a population less than 200,000 residents to adopt an ordinance to create an expedited, streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations on or before September 30, 2017. The proposed ordinance would bring the City’s permitting processes for EV Charging stations in line with State law.

Background:

Assembly Bill 1236, amended Government Code Section 65850.7 by requiring jurisdictions with a population less than 200,000 residents to establish procedures for expedited, streamlined processes for permitting of electric vehicle charging stations. An electric vehicle charging station is any level of electric vehicle supply equipment station which delivers electricity from a source outside an electric vehicle into a plug-in electric vehicle. The amendments to Section 65850.7 include the requirement for a jurisdiction to adopt an ordinance for the expedited, streamlined process on or before September 30, 2017. In light of recent legislation that builds upon the requirements in AB 1236, it was discovered that the City had not yet adopted the respective ordinance. Adoption of the ordinance in combination with revised procedures in the Community Development Department, would ensure this oversight is corrected and that the City’s procedures would be in compliance with state law.

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0552
This streamlining process includes the establishment of a checklist containing objective requirements for the installation of an electric vehicle charging station and a procedure for electronic submittal of permit applications. The content of the checklist requires the permit applicant to check the features of the existing electrical service such as: rating in amperes; system voltage; connected or calculated load; spare capacity in amperes; voltage and ampere rating of the electric vehicle supply equipment; circuit rating of the electric vehicle supply equipment; location of the electric vehicle supply equipment; if ventilation is or is not required; and clearances of the charging equipment to comply with all applicable building and fire safety laws.

The checklist also assists the applicant in confirming that the location of the electric vehicle supply equipment complies with any vehicle clearance requirements in the City’s Zoning Ordinance.

Government Code Section 65850.7 requires the City’s checklist be based on the “Plug-In Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Permitting Checklist” of the “Zero-Emission Vehicles in California: Community Readiness Guidebook” of the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research.

Assembly Bill 1236 (2015) also clarified that a jurisdiction shall not condition approval of a permit for an electric vehicle charging station based on the approval of an association as defined in California Civil Code, Section 4080.

Discussion:

Currently, the Building and Safety division does not accept electronic submittals for building permit applications, but would ensure that procedures to accept electronic submittals are in place prior to adoption of the ordinance. While the City is still in the process of developing an external-facing portal for electronic permit submittals, staff could accept application submittals electronically by other means, such as through email or cloud-based file sharing applications to meet these streamlining requirements.

Concurrent with Council’s consideration and adoption of the proposed ordinance, staff is taking steps to ensure that permitting procedures meet all requirements of Assembly Bill 1236 (Chiu-2015). These steps include finalizing the application checklist in conjunction with the “Plug-In Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Permitting Checklist” of the “Zero-Emission Vehicles in California: Community Readiness Guidebook”, measures for electrical compliance, and standard items for fire prevention safety. Building and Safety and Los Angeles County Fire Department staff have developed procedures for expedient and thorough inspection of the electric vehicle charging stations.

Staff recommends City Council introduce on first reading the attached ordinance, given the requirement as outlined in Government Code § 65850.7, that local agencies adopt such an ordinance to create an expedited, streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations. The procedures outlined in Government Code § 65850.7, such as electronic submittal of plans are not City of Hermosa Beach Page 2 of 3 Printed on 9/6/2022

procedures outlined in Government Code § 65850.7, such as electronic submittal of plans are not currently in place, but staff would ensure the necessary procedures are in place prior to adoption of the ordinance to ensure full compliance to provide an expedited, streamlined process for permit applicants, as outlined in Government Code § 65850.7.

General Plan Consistency:

This report and associated recommendation have been evaluated for their consistency with the City’s General Plan. Relevant Policies are listed below:

Mobility Element
Goal 5. A robust low cost and low carbon transportation system that promotes the City’s environmental sustainability and stewardship goals in support of social and economic objectives.

Goal 4. A parking system that meets the parking needs and demand of residents, visitors, and employees in an efficient and cost-effective manner.

Policy:
· 4.6 Priority parking. Provide priority parking and charging stations to accommodate the use of Electric Vehicles (EVs), including smaller short-distance neighborhood electric vehicles.

REPORT 22-0539
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of September 13, 2022
GENERAL PLAN 2021 ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT
(Community Development Director Jeannie Naughton)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Receive staff presentation and public comments;

2. Receive and file General Plan 2021 Annual Progress Report (Attachment 1); and

3. Direct staff to submit General Plan 2021 Annual Progress Report to the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR).

Executive Summary:

Each jurisdiction in California is required to prepare a Housing Element and General Plan Annual Progress Report (APR) outlining the status and progress of the implementation of the jurisdiction’s respective Housing Element and General Plan for the previous calendar year. The respective APRs must be submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) on April 1st of each year, pursuant to Government Code Section 65400 and 65700.

Background:

Government Code Sections 65400 and 65700 mandate that all cities and counties submit an annual report on the status of the General Plan, and progress in its implementation, to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR).

The purpose of the annual report is to identify statewide trends in land use decision making and how local planning and development activities relate to statewide planning goals and policies. The annual report also: provides local legislative bodies and the public with information regarding the implementation of the General Plan; helps jurisdictions identify needed modifications and improvements to implementation; and enables the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research to track progress on the status of a local jurisdiction’s General Plan.

REPORT 22-0539
At its March 8, 2022 meeting, City Council approved the 2021 Housing Element APR. Staff subsequently submitted the Housing Element APR to the State on March 9, 2022. The City was notified of the requirement for a separate General Plan APR after the April 1st deadline. The General Plan APR is hereby presented to City Council prior to submission to HCD and OPR.

Past Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
March 8, 2022 (Regular Meeting) City Council received and filed the 2021 Housing Ele to the State.

Discussion:

There is no standardized form or format for preparation of the General Plan APR. However, OPR provides recommendations for content in their Guidelines. The APR is not required to incorporate all recommended content of the Guidelines. Instead, the APR is meant to discuss the General Plan implementation in the broader context of the City’s overall programs and activities. Because the City completed and approved the PLAN Hermosa General Plan in 2017, the 2021 APR reflects PLAN Hermosa in its implementation phase.
2021 Annual Progress Report Summary
The PLAN Hermosa General Plan includes the seven required elements: Land Use (“Land Use + Design”); Circulation (“Mobility”); Housing; Conservation (“Sustainability and Conservation”); Open Space (“Parks and Open Space); Noise; and Safety (Both Noise and Safety are included in “Public Safety”).

Additionally, PLAN Hermosa includes two optional elements: a Governance Element and an Infrastructure Element.

Governance Element. The State of California does not require that a city’s general plan address governance. However, the City of Hermosa Beach views this as a critical topic and believes it sets the tone for decision-making on many of the topics required by State law, so it is included as an optional element.

Infrastructure Element. The State of California does not require that a city’s general plan include a separate Infrastructure Element but does require the topic of infrastructure to be addressed. Since the City of Hermosa Beach views infrastructure as a critical topic, it is included as an optional element and includes specific components related to infrastructure.

There were three major PLAN Hermosa Planning activities conducted in 2021 including: the Housing Element Update; Comprehensive Zoning and Subdivisions Updates to the Hermosa Beach Municipal City of Hermosa Beach Page 2 of 4 Printed on 9/6/2022
powered by Legistar™362
Staff Report
REPORT 22-0539
Element Update; Comprehensive Zoning and Subdivisions Updates to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code; and development of an Economic Development Strategy. The major activities are described as follows:

1. Housing Element Update
The Housing Element is on a required 8-year cycle determined by the State. At the time PLAN Hermosa was adopted by the City Council in August 2017, the Housing Element was previously completed and certified by the State on October 23, 2013 for the 2013-2021 5th Cycle Planning Period. The Housing Element for the 2021-2029 6th Cycle Planning Period was a significant project and priority throughout 2021. A General Plan Amendment was approved for the 2021-2029 6th Cycle Housing Element, adopted by City Council on December 21, 2021. It is anticipated that a General Plan Amendment and CEQA analysis will be considered by the Planning Commission and City Council for necessary zone changes to meet the City’s Regional Housing Needs for the 2021-2029 6th Cycle Housing Element. This effort is expected to be completed next year and included in the 2022 Annual Progress Report.

2. Comprehensive Subdivisions and Zoning Updates to Hermosa Beach Municipal Code The City of Hermosa Beach is currently in the process of comprehensively updating Subdivisions Title 16 and Zoning Title 17 chapters of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code to reflect the City’s adoption of PLAN Hermosa in 2017, which expresses the community’s long range goals for the future of Hermosa Beach. The Subdivisions and Zoning code updates are intended to create a clear, flexible, user-friendly set of land use and development regulations that serves as an effective tool to implement the community’s vision expressed in PLAN Hermosa. The community is encouraged to participate throughout the process. This effort is expected to be completed early next year and included in the 2022 Annual Progress Report.

3. Hermosa Beach Economic Development Strategy
The PLAN Hermosa General Plan specifically includes development of an Economic Development Strategy, as noted in the Governance Element:

Goal 6. A broad-based and long-term economic development strategy for Hermosa Beach that supports existing businesses while attracting new business and tourism.

City Council established the Economic Development Committee, comprised of two City Councilmembers and two Planning Commissioners, on April 29, 2020. Upon direction from the City Council, an Economic Development Stakeholders Advisory Working Group was formed comprised of business representatives and commercial property owners. The Economic Development Committee directed development of an Economic Development Strategy as specified in the Governance Element of PLAN Hermosa.

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0539
During 2021, the Economic Development Committee and Stakeholders Advisory Working Group explored and discussed Hermosa Beach business-related topics to develop appropriate actions to include in the Economic Development Strategy during monthly Economic Development Committee meetings and twice-monthly Stakeholders Advisory Working Group meetings. The Economic Development Strategy was approved by City Council at its July 12, 2022 meeting and will be included in the 2022 Annual Progress Report.

In addition to the major Planning activities, implementation actions were completed and progress was made in each of the PLAN Hermosa General Plan elements, including Land Use, Mobility, Sustainability + Conservation, Parks + Open Space, and Infrastructure. These implementation actions are described in the attached APR.

General Plan Consistency:

PLAN Hermosa, the City’s General Plan, was adopted by the City Council in August 2017. Annual Progress Reports are required by Government Code Sections 65400 and 65700 and part of the City’s responsibility to implement the PLAN Hermosa General Plan. Activities summarized in the APR, this report, and associated recommendations have been evaluated for consistency with the City’s General Plan.

2021 PLAN HERMOSA GENERAL PLAN

ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT (APR)

INTRODUCTION
PLAN Hermosa, the City’s General Plan, was adopted by the City Council in August 2017 after a multi-year community-wide effort with more than fifty public meetings, including “Key Issues” workshops and study sessions; neighborhood and district walking tours; a youth charrette “This is MY City Camp;” a community working group that held fifteen meetings; commission reviews with Public Works Commission, Parks and Recreation Commission, and Emergency Preparedness Advisory Commission; joint Planning Commission/City Council Sessions; City Council meetings; and Planning Commission meetings. Organized around a framework for sustainability, each section of PLAN Hermosa addresses different aspects of the community and identifies measurable actions to guide residents, decision-makers, businesses and City staff toward achieving the vision. PLAN Hermosa establishes goals to help achieve the long term vision as a community that values its small beach town character, vibrant economy, and healthy environment and lifestyles.

The City of Hermosa Beach is committed to achieving the collective community vision of PLAN Hermosa. This report is a summary of 2021 implementation actions.

The 2021 General Plan APR will be presented as a Municipal Matters agenda item at the regularly scheduled City Council meeting on September 13, 2022. 2017 GENERAL PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
The PLAN Hermosa General Plan includes the seven required elements: Land Use (“Land Use + Design”), Circulation (“Mobility”), Housing, Conservation (“Sustainability and Conservation”), Open Space (“Parks and Open Space), Noise, and Safety (Both Noise and Safety are included in “Public Safety”).

Additionally, PLAN Hermosa includes two optional elements: a Governance Element and an Infrastructure Element.

Infrastructure Element. The State of California does not require that a city’s general plan include a separate Infrastructure Element, but does require the topic of infrastructure to 366
3 be addressed. Since the City of Hermosa Beach views infrastructure as a critical topic, it is included as an optional element and includes specific components related to infrastructure.

Senate Bill 1000 (Leyva, 2016) amended Government Code Section 65302 to require jurisdictions that have disadvantaged communities, defined as communities identified by the California Environmental Protection Agency or that are disproportionately affected by environmental pollution and socioeconomic characteristics to prepare an Environmental Justice element; Hermosa Beach does not have any areas within its jurisdictional boundaries that qualify as a disadvantaged community and the PLAN Hermosa General Plan is therefore exempt from developing a separate Environmental Justice element.

HOUSING ELEMENT STATUS AND 2021 HOUSING ELEMENT APR
PLAN Hermosa was adopted in 2017 and has a “time horizon” of 25 years. However, State law requires that the Housing Element be updated every eight years. The City’s current Housing Element covers the planning period 2013 to 2021, which is referred to as the “5th Housing Element cycle.” The Housing Element was not included with the 2017 PLAN Hermosa General Plan adoption since the 2013-2021 5th Cycle Housing Element had been adopted by the City Council September 10, 2013 and certified by the State October 24, 2013, prior to the PLAN Hermosa General Plan update.

Every city in the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) region is required to prepare a Housing Element update for the 6th planning cycle, which spans the 2021–2029 period, regardless of when the other elements of the General Plan were adopted. The due date for the 6th Housing Element update was October 15, 2021.

The draft 6
th Cycle Housing Element was reviewed by the Planning Commission on June 3, 2021 and by the City Council on July 27, 2021, prior to initial submittal to California Housing and Community Development (HCD) for review. The City submitted a draft Housing Element on August 4, 2021 and received a HCD Comment Letter requesting additional analyses and information on October 5, 2021.

After revisions to the document providing additional analyses, information and added potential housing sites in response to HCD comments, the updated draft 6th Cycle Housing Element was reviewed by the Planning Commission on November 16, 2021. At that meeting, the Planning Commission recommended the City Council consider adoption of the Housing Element. The City Council reviewed and adopted the 6th Cycle Housing Element on December 21, 2021. The adopted Housing Element was submitted to HCD on December 22, 2021. It should be noted that HCD has subsequently responded with a comment letter on March 23, 2022 with further analyses and additional information requested. The City is working on addressing these comments and will be described further in the 2022 Annual Progress Report.

Each jurisdiction is required to report certain housing permit information annually in accordance with state housing law (Government Code Sections 65584.3(c) and 367
4 65584.5(b)) and HCD’s housing element guidelines. The City Council approved the 2021 Housing Element APR on March 8, 2022 and submitted its 2021 Housing Element APR to the State on March 9, 2021.

GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENTS AND MAJOR PLANNING ACTIVITIES
There were three major PLAN Hermosa Planning activities conducted in 2021; the Housing Element Update, Comprehensive Zoning and Subdivisions Updates to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code, and development of an Economic Development Strategy. These are described below.

Housing Element Update
The Housing Element update was a significant project and priority throughout 2021. A General Plan Amendment was approved for the 2021-2029 6th Cycle Housing Element, adopted by City Council on December 21, 2021. It is anticipated that a General Plan Amendment and CEQA analysis will be considered by the Planning Commission and City Council in 2022 for necessary zone changes to meet the City’s Regional Housing Needs for the 2021-2029 6th Cycle Housing Element.

Comprehensive Subdivisions and Zoning Updates to Hermosa Beach Municipal Code The City of Hermosa Beach is currently in the process of comprehensively updating the Title 16 Subdivisions and Title 17 Zoning chapters of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code to reflect the City’s adoption of PLAN Hermosa in 2017. The Subdivisions and Zoning code updates are intended to create a clear, flexible, user-friendly set of land use and development regulations that serves as an effective tool to implement the community’s vision expressed in PLAN Hermosa. The public is encouraged to participate throughout the process. This effort is expected to be completed in early 2023 and is included in the 2022 Annual Progress Report.

Hermosa Beach Economic Development Strategy
PLAN Hermosa General Plan specifically includes development of an Economic Development Strategy, as noted in the Governance Element:

Goal 6. A broad-based and long-term economic development strategy for Hermosa Beach that supports existing businesses while attracting new business and tourism.

The City Council established the Economic Development Committee, comprised of two City Councilmembers and two Planning Commissioners, on April 29, 2020. Upon direction from the City Council, an Economic Development Stakeholders Advisory Working Group was formed comprised of business representatives and commercial property owners from all business districts in the City. The Economic Development Committee directed development of an Economic Development Strategy as specified in the Governance Element of PLAN Hermosa.
368
5 During 2021, the Economic Development Committee and Stakeholders Advisory Working Group explored and discussed Hermosa Beach business-related topics to develop appropriate actions to include in the Economic Development Strategy during monthly Economic Development Committee meetings and twice-monthly Stakeholders Advisory Working Group meetings. The Economic Development Strategy was approved by City Council July 12, 2022 and will be included in the 2022 Annual Progress Report.

GENERAL PLAN UPDATE PROGRESS 2021
The City of Hermosa Beach is committed to implementation of the PLAN Hermosa General Plan. In addition to the major planning efforts described above, each PLAN Hermosa chapter (element) is reflected in this 2021 Annual Progress Report. Some examples of this commitment are detailed below.

PLAN Hermosa consists of eight chapters, or elements, with goals and policies related to the chapter (element) topic, including progress on the following goals:
• Chapter 1: Governance
o Goals include: A high degree of transparency and integrity in the decisionmaking process; a community that is active and engaged in decisionmaking processes; excellent customer service through the use of emerging technologies; and development of broad-based and long-term economic development strategy for Hermosa Beach that supports existing businesses while attracting new business and tourism.

Key takeaways:
o Open meetings are available for all community members to attend, participate or view remotely, including recordings available to view after the meetings are concluded on the City’s website and the City’s YouTube channel.
o Public participation is encouraged and includes email notifications on topics community members can identify as interests; social media outreach on Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn; and website updates and highlights on City’s home webpage at www.hermosabeach.gov.
o Technology applications to engage the public include the Go Hermosa app that allows members of the community to simply report issues for City staff to address.
o Successful implementation of a new Accela permit processing and project management software program that simplifies permit processing for Community Development and Public Works plan review and permits. o An Economic Development Committee was formed in 2020 and in 2021 focused its work on development of an Economic Development Strategy as outlined in PLAN Hermosa General Plan
• Chapter 2: Land Use
369
6 o Goals include: Creation of a sustainable urban form and land use patterns that support a robust economy and high quality of life for resident; neighborhoods that provide for diverse needs of residents of all ages and abilities and are organized to support healthy and active lifestyles; a variety of corridors throughout the city that provide opportunities for shopping, recreation, commerce, employment and circulation; and the provision of a range of coastal-dependent and visitor-serving uses available to serve a variety of income ranges and amenity desires.

Key takeaways:
o Development projects, mostly one and two-unit residential buildings in 2021, are reviewed within conformance of the Land Use Element. o The Subdivisions code and Zoning code updates underway will align the codes to the PLAN Hermosa General Plan and current state laws. o Two small boutique hotels at 66 11th St. (9 rooms) and 70 10th St. (6 rooms) were approved in prior years and are currently under construction in the Recreational Commercial (RC) area in Downtown near Pier Plaza. • Chapter 3: Mobility (Circulation)
o Facilitates mobility of people and goods by a variety of modes, with balanced emphasis on automobiles, bicycles, pedestrians, and alternative fuel vehicles.

Key takeaways:
o Begun as a pilot program in 2020, the Hermosa Avenue Lane Reconfiguration Program reduced the two-way street from two to one lane each way, allowing added bike lanes and pedestrian dining encroachments on the street. The lane reconfigurations are being evaluated for permanent implementation in 2023.
o A Temporary Sidewalk and Street Dining pilot program was also begun in 2020 and is being evaluated for permanent implementation. The temporary pilot program was an opportunity to evaluate actual sidewalk and street encroachments, allowing the City to adjust and improve the program under consideration for permanent implementation.
o In 2021, additional bike racks were installed downtown due to increased demand from bicyclists and popularity of the Temporary Sidewalk and Street Dining.
o The Safer Prospect Traffic Safety Demonstration project installation focused on pedestrian safety and access to schools and parks along Prospect Avenue. In response to community requests for different traffic safety improvements along the Prospect corridor, the City obtained a grant from SCAG to evaluate concerns and identify potential improvements that could be tested and evaluated through a temporary demonstration project.

This allowed the City to test and evaluate various traffic calming and pedestrian safety enhancements and provide the community with an opportunity to use the corridor with these enhancements in place and 370
7 provide feedback to improve safety and traffic flow to help inform future traffic safety projects in the City.
• Chapter 4: Sustainability + Conservation
o Resources such as energy and water are essential elements for sustaining a healthy life, and consumption and deterioration of these resources can have widespread health, environmental, and economic effects. A resource efficient and low-carbon community are key to addressing the negative effects of climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere and through numerous energy and resource conservation measures.

Key takeaways:
o Conservation of natural resources targeting water conservation, energy conservation, green building, air quality, and recycling and solid waste. o Community workshops for Climate Change Adaptation and Resiliency to Address Coastal Flooding, also known as the Climate Change Adaption Project to prepare for coastal flooding and sea level rise. o Promotion of a Save Water campaign with West Basin Municipal Water District through a City communication channels and social media. o Free Rain Barrel Program with West Basin Municipal Water District promotion through City communication channels and social media. o Continued enforcement of bans of mylar balloons and single use plastics. • Chapter 5: Parks + Open Space
o Well maintained parks, open space, and recreation facilities and quality recreational programs are essential amenities that help create community and make the city more livable and attractive, provide a place of relaxation and relief from the urban environment, encourage physical activity and health, provide a forum for gathering and interaction and reduce urban heat islands. Parks and open space play a key role in sustainability and contribute to the health and quality of life for the community.

Key takeaways:
o Recreational programming, beach management and special events, enhanced access to the coast, protection of scenic views, natural habitats, and the urban forest.
o Installed porous pavement at Kay Etow Park to enable water to soak into the ground.
o Greenbelt Park Accessible Path Assessment study complete for a decomposed granite path between Pier Avenue and 8th Street to replace existing dirt path on this highly used walkway.
• Chapter 6: Public Safety (Safety and Noise Elements Combined) 371
8 o A safe and healthy environment is critical for a good quality of life, including high quality police and fire protection services. The City has been proactive and has a history responding quickly to crimes and hazards, maximizing safety and ensuring a high quality of life. The City is committed to its public safety strategy through a four-fold strategy: (1) reduce potential risks or exposure to natural and man-made hazards, (2) build community capacity and preparedness for unavoidable hazards, (3) ensure efficient response to hazardous events, and (4) enact recovery plans to build greater resiliency to future hazards. The Noise Element addresses major noise sources, existing and future noise levels, and potential noise exposure to vulnerable populations.

Key takeaways:
o The City has proactively sponsored several COVID-19 Vaccine Clinics, working with its partners Beach Cities Health District and Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.
o The City has vigilantly kept up to date with often-changing pandemic health orders to communicate to the community.
o Hermosa Beach Police initiated a Camera Registry Program, an optional program for businesses and residents to assist officers in solving crime by sharing locations of security cameras to readily locate security camera footage.
o Hermosa Beach Police initiated Project Secure, a proactive approach with patrol officers keeping an eye out for open garage doors, open car doors, unsecured bikes or packages and attempt to contact the responsible party or secure the property and leave a card notification.
• Chapter 7: Infrastructure
o A safe, healthy and well maintained public infrastructure system is essential to the functioning of the community. The means by which water, energy, waste, and people are transported from one place to another must function well. These systems include water service, water quality, storm drainage, electricity, natural gas, telecommunications, fiber-optics, sewer system, roads and sidewalks.

Key takeaways:
o Annual Street Improvements Project was completed, including 350 feet of new sidewalks, 21 new ADA curb ramps, and 2.1 miles of street paving. o Annual Street and Parking Striping project was completed, including all City parking lots for ADA compliance and refreshed striping on various streets throughout the City.
o Annual sewer repairs and rehabilitations were completed according to the Sewer Master Plan, including approximately 1.5 miles of sewer lining and point repairs.
o Storm drain pipe screens installed on 76 City and Los Angeles County storm drain catch basins to reduce trash and debris entering the ocean. 372
9 • Housing (updated every 8 years) – Separate from 2017 PLAN Hermosa General Plan
o Addresses state housing element law, which requires an assessment of housing needs (existing and projected), an inventory of resources and constraints relevant to meeting those needs, and an analysis on how existing and future policies, plans, programs, rules, practices and related activities affirmatively further fair housing (AFFH) in the City.

Key takeaways:
o There were five City Council and Planning Commission meetings regarding the 2021-2029 6
th Cycle Housing Element Update in 2021, including: 1)
February 3, 2021 Joint City Council/Planning Commission Housing Needs Assessment and Housing Element Information Meeting, 2) June 30, 2021 Planning Commission Meeting, 3) July 27, 2021 City Council Meeting with authorization to submit the draft Housing Element to California HCD, which was sent August 4, 2021, 4) November 16, 2021 Planning Commission Meeting, and 5) December 21, 2021 City Council Adoption and authorization to submit to California HCD, which was sent December 22, 2021.

Dear Mayor, Council Members, and Staff – I am providing feedback regarding the 2021 Annual General Plan Progress Report. Since I’ve had the opportunity to attend all of our Economic Development and Zoning Meetings this past year, I can provide insight into how the city might improve its ability to realize the vision in our General Plan.

After reviewing the report, I appreciate the inclusion of the optional Governance and Infrastructure Elements, as both these areas focus on critical areas in our city. In order to embrace a vibrant local economy and encourage reinvestment, it would be beneficial if clear direction was given to staff and consultants from Council to encourage timely and concurrent discussions in our Comprehensive Zoning and Subdivisions Meetings with respect to emerging trends (i.e., work/live lofts, mixed use in commercial zones – C2, FARS to accommodate flexibility) that maybe outside the scope of PLAN Hermosa. As of now, any conversations have been limited and/or reduced to 383
inclusion in a list to recommend to Council at a later date. One of our biggest road blocks could be the linear rules and/or mindset in our Governance process that does not encourage creative thinking and problem solving in a timely manner so we can take advantage of synergies within our Economic Development Strategies adopted this year.

One of the first year priorities in our Economic Development Strategies is to have regular communication with commercial property owners at least four times per year. Since we are currently updating our Zoning which includes these key stakeholders, a meeting should be set up while Zoning is being discussed. I was fortunate to be a part of the Economic Advisory Group and I will lend my assistance if coordination is needed.

Another key takeaway from our Governance Element was the successful implementation of the new Accela permit processing program. In order to provide excellent customer service will this program include timely feedback surveys to improve the process? If so, will the public have access to these results so communication can be broadly shared within our community?
In the Mobility Element, I noticed Pier Avenue was missing from the “Hermosa Avenue Lane Reconfiguration” pilot program in 2020. I am hoping this was an oversight or typo.

In 2021, additional bike racks were installed downtown due to increased demand from bicyclists. Can you provide information on the quantity and location of these new bike racks? In order to encourage alternate modes of transportation, additional bike racks should be spread throughout our downtown corridors.

I look forward to more discussions on how we can work together in a timely manner to improve our feedback and communication in our community.

Thank you.

As a member of the economic development advisory committee I have been involved in providing discussion and feedback in the PLAN update. Martha Miller and staff have been doing a great job! Still, I think as a city and community we are missing out opportunities because the scope of the updates are limited to streamlining and codifying PLAN Hermosa as it was originally adopted.

PLAN Hermosa has a great vision which should stand the test of time. However, how this vision is achieved should change with the times to benefit from our ongoing learning and societal changes. This is why some cities update their plan as often as every 8 years. It may feels like the Plan was incepted only yesterday. But it wasn't.

That first Clark Building meeting was almost a decade ago. That is a half a social generation. Since then we have had monumental changes to how we work, travel and live. I think that the PLAN updates that Martha Miller delivers should reflect this.

At the last planning commission meeting, Commissioner Rice suggested a list be compiled of ideas and suggested changes that extend beyond the Plan Hermosa so they can bring them to council at a later date.

Examples are changing floor to area ratios in new DT Zone and mixed-use development, etc. I suggest that list be compiled and submitted as soon as possible so council can discuss integrating some items into the work Martha Miller is doing. This saves time, money, and provides a more holistic, futuristic approach to our Plan Update.

Dear City Clerk
Supplemental to Item XIVa Sept 13 2022 city council agenda PLAN HERMOSA GENERAL PLAN ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT referenced in the staff report 22-0539 says:

By acceding to the issue of environmental justice element i in no way want that to be construed by the city as an excuse not to follow Section 65302(f) of the California Government Code requires that General Plans contain a Noise Element that can be used as a guide for establishing a pattern of land uses that minimize the exposure of community residents to excessive noise.

So while an Environmental Justice element may not be required despite 100s of thousands of dollars in property value losses on 27th street between morningside drive and manhattan ave directly attributable discretionary city projects projects that have resulted in excessive traffic noise and near roadway pollution on 27th street AND given the indirect impacts of the Lane Reduction project, the Herondo berm project have turned 27th into an Arterial Truck Route without any CEQA study, I reserve the right to DEMAND that both the future general plan and the CEQA Lane Reduction Study measure not only noise pollution on the 27th street road segment mentioned above, but they measure near roadway pollution and assess the health consequences of both.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council Regular Meeting of September 13, 2022

APPROVAL OF A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT

BETWEEN THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH AND
VERONICA TAM AND ASSOCIATES, INC., FOR PREPARATION

OF AN UPDATE OF THE HOUSING ELEMENT OF

PLAN HERMOSA GENERAL PLAN
(Community Development Director Jeannie Naughton)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Approve a Professional Services Agreement (Attachment 1) with Veronica Tam and Associates, Inc. to provide services to prepare an update of the 2021-2029 Housing Element of PLAN Hermosa General Plan; and

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute and the City Clerk to attest the agreement subject to approval by the City Attorney.

Executive Summary:

At its December 21, 2021 meeting, City Council reviewed and adopted the 6th Cycle draft Housing Element, which was subsequently submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) on December 22, 2021. A substantial comment letter was provided to the City by HCD on March 23, 2022, outlining deficiencies that needed to be addressed in the draft Housing Element. As of early July 2022, the City’s consultant who was preparing the Housing Element update had made no progress on addressing the comments provided by HCD in its March letter. Following discussions with staff on how best to proceed, the City’s consultant released himself from assisting the City in its update to the Housing Element and staff began reaching out to consulting firms to ascertain availability to the assist the City in completing the 6th Cycle Housing Element update process.

Veronica Tam and Associates, Inc. has substantial experience in preparing Housing Elements including having prepared 10 of the 26 Housing Elements in the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) region that have received certification by HCD. Staff recommends City Council approve a Professional Services Agreement with Veronica Tam and Associates (VTA) for preparation City of Hermosa Beach Page 1 of 4 Printed on 9/13/2022

Staff Report
REPORT 22-0551
of the update of the Housing Element of PLAN Hermosa General Plan.

Background:

Beginning in 1969, all local jurisdictions including cities and counties are required to adequately plan to meet the housing needs of everyone in the community. This requirement is met through adoption of a housing plan as part of the General Plan, also known as the housing element. Housing element law acknowledges that for the private market to adequately address the housing needs and demand of Californians, local governments must create the necessary regulatory infrastructure to provide opportunities for, and not unduly constrain, housing development. The regulatory infrastructure is achieved through adoption and effective implementation of general plans, and particularly, housing elements.

At its December 21, 2021 meeting, City Council reviewed and adopted the 6th Cycle draft Housing Element, which was subsequently submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) on December 22, 2021. A substantial comment letter was provided to the City by HCD on March 23, 2022, outlining deficiencies that needed to be addressed in the draft Housing Element. The City’s consultant, JHD Planning LLC made no progress on addressing the comments provided by HCD, as of early July 2022 and staff, therefore, has solicited proposals from additional consulting firms to complete the City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element update.

Past Board, Commission, and Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
December 15, 2020 Planning Commission conducted an initial public meeting to introduce the 2021-2029 Housing Element update.

February 3, 2021 The City Council and Planning Commission held a joint study session to provide an overview of the Housing
Element update process, explanation of the state
requirements for Hermosa Beach Regional Housing Needs
Assessment (RHNA), to solicit comments regarding housing needs and to receive feedback from the Planning
Commission and City Council.

June 30, 2021 Planning Commission held a Special Meeting to receive a presentation, hear public comments, and provide comments on the Draft 2021-2029 Housing Element.

November 16, 2021 Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and considered the revised 2021-2029 Housing Element in
response to the comment letter received from HCD and
recommended additional revisions.

December 21, 2021 City Council conducted a public hearing and considered the recommended revised document and adopted the 2021-

presentation, hear public comments, and provide comments on the Draft 2021-2029 Housing Element.

December 21, 2021 City Council conducted a public hearing and considered the recommended revised document and adopted the 2021-
2029 Housing Element.

Discussion:

To date, there have been five previous housing element update “cycles.” California is now in its sixth “housing-element update cycle.” Jurisdictions within the SCAG region were required to submit to HCD, a revised sixth housing element revision no later than October 15, 2021, with a statutory 120- day grace period for certification, resulting in a deadline of February 11, 2022. Jurisdictions that failed to adopt a certified Housing Element by this date were then subject to the new requirements of AB 1398 (Bloom) passed in the 2021/2022 session, which requires that any rezoning necessary for approval of the Housing Element by HCD, be implemented by October 15, 2022.

Senate Bill (SB) 197 was signed into law on June 30, 2022, which changed the rezoning deadlines for jurisdictions with statutory housing element deadlines in 2021, giving a three-year extension for enacting necessary rezoning action if the adopted housing element is certified by HCD by October 15, 2022. Because HCD has a statutory review timeline of 60-days for review of a submittal by a jurisdiction, Housing Elements in the SCAG region had to be submitted to HCD by August 15, 2022, to be eligible to meet the certification deadline of October 15, 2022, and thus, be eligible for the three -year rezoning extension. Because the City’s consultant had made no progress on addressing the substantial comments provided to the City in March 2022, staff had no draft Housing Element to submit to HCD by August 15, 2022.

As a result of missing the statutory deadlines for certification by HCD within one year of the 2021 housing element due date, jurisdictions, including the City of Hermosa Beach, cannot be found in compliance with Housing Element Law until all necessary rezones are complete. Staff has communicated to HCD staff, both its challenges with the previous consultant releasing himself from assisting the City with its updates and in our dedication in making a good faith effort to make substantial progress towards compliance with Housing Element Law.

Veronica Tam and Associates (VTA) is a well-regarded consulting firm that has demonstrated that they have the technical expertise, available staffing, and competitive pricing to assist the City in achieving compliance with Housing Element Law. VTA has prepared almost half of the Housing Elements certified by HCD in the SCAG region in the 6th Cycle. The proposal agreement (Attachment 1) outlines the timeline for completion and readoption of the 2021-2029 Housing Element, with readoption anticipated for May 2023.

General Plan Consistency:

PLAN Hermosa, the City’s General Plan, was adopted by the City Council in August 2017. When the City Council adopted the 2021-2029 Housing Element on December 21, 2021, it became a component of the PLAN Hermosa General Plan. It is imperative that the City endeavors to achieve City of Hermosa Beach Page 3 of 4 Printed on 9/13/2022

REPORT 22-0551
component of the PLAN Hermosa General Plan. It is imperative that the City endeavors to achieve compliance with Housing Element Law through preparation of a Housing Element that addresses all comments outlined in HCD’s review letter provided in March 2022, in addition to implementing any necessary rezonings.

Staff has communicated to HCD the City’s commitment to achieving compliance, and its efforts in moving forward with a new consulting team that can assist the City in addressing and resolving the deficiencies in the existing draft Housing Element, with anticipated readoption of a complying Housing Element in May 2023.

Fiscal Impact:

This agreement has a total non-to-exceed amount of $43,880, inclusive of $5,000 contingency to account for any additional meetings, if needed, that are not outlined in the proposed scope of work.

Funding to support expenditures under this agreement would be taken from two sources: Housing Element Update, account number 001-4108-4201, where $135,000 is budgeted for FY 2022-2023; and SB 2 Grant Fund, account number 150-4108-4201, where $25,455 is budgeted for FY 2022- 2023. Both accounts are in the Community Development Department.
