Mitigation Measure(s)

Mitigation

4.1 Aesthetics and Visual Resources

4.1-1 Effects on Scenic Vistas. Future actions under PLAN Hermosa have the potential to encroach on views from
prominent public viewpoints. Future actions also have the potential to degrade the visual quality of scenic vistas, through the introduction of incongruous features to the viewshed.

LTS None required. N/A

4.1-2 Effects on Scenic Resources within a State Scenic Highway. There are no designated state scenic highways in or near Hermosa Beach. However, PLAN Hermosa directs
the City to protect Pacific Coast Highway as a potentially scenic highway and would guide development and reuse
projects in a manner that is consistent with the existing visual character of Pacific Coast Highway so that it may be designated as a scenic highway at some point in the future.

LTS None required. N/A

4.1-3 Degradation of Existing Visual Character. PLAN Hermosa would guide future development and reuse projects in the city in a manner that would not adversely alter the existing land use pattern or visual character of the city.

LTS None required. N/A

4.1-4 New Shade or Shadow That Substantially Affects
Outdoor Recreation. PLAN Hermosa would allow
development or reuse projects in a manner where new
sources of shade or shadow may reach outdoor recreation facilities or public gathering areas. However, the voterapproved height limits effectively restrict the number of areas in which shade or shadow may have an adverse effect but do not eliminate all potential sources.

LTS None required. N/A

Mitigation

4.1-5 New Sources of Light or Glare. PLAN Hermosa would guide development and reuse projects in a manner that
could create new sources of glare, skyglow, and spillover lighting. However, PLAN Hermosa also includes specific
policies and implementation actions that minimize adverse effects related to new sources of light and glare.

LTS None required. N/A

4.1-6 Cumulative Adverse Effects Related to Visual Resources.

Of the categories of potential visual impacts addressed, only the impact of artificial lighting to the night sky (skyglow impact) is potentially cumulative in nature. All other impacts (to scenic vistas, scenic resources, visual character, shade and shadow effects, and lighting impacts of glare and
spillover) are localized and confined within the city limits of Hermosa Beach.

LCC None required. N/A

4.2 Air Quality

4.2-1 Conflict with or Obstruct Implementation of the
Applicable Air Quality Plan. Implementation of PLAN
Hermosa would guide future development in the city in a manner that could result in air pollution emissions.

Compliance with existing federal and state regulations and implementation of PLAN Hermosa policies would reduce
conflicts with air quality plans.

LTS None required. N/A

4.2-2 Short-Term Construction Emissions. Implementation of PLAN Hermosa would guide future development in the city in a manner that could generate air pollutant emissions from short-term construction. Although PLAN Hermosa
policies and programs and enforcement of current SCAQMD rules and regulations would help reduce short-term
emissions, construction emissions would result in a
potentially significant impact.

PS MM 4.2-2a Construction projects within the city shall demonstrate compliance with all applicable standards of the Southern California Air Quality Management District, including the following provisions of District Rule 403:
 All unpaved demolition and construction areas
shall be wetted at least twice daily during
excavation and construction, and temporary dust
covers shall be used to reduce dust emissions

and meet SCAQMD Rule 403. Wetting could
reduce fugitive dust by as much as 50 percent.
 The construction area shall be kept sufficiently
dampened to control dust caused by grading and
hauling, and at all times provide reasonable
control of dust caused by wind.
 All clearing, earth moving, or excavation activities
shall be discontinued during periods of high

4.6 Greenhouse Gas Emissions

4.6-1 Generate Greenhouse Gas Emissions That May Have a Significant Impact on the Environment and Inhibit the
Goals of Assembly Bill 32. PLAN Hermosa would guide
future development and reuse projects in the city in a
manner that could result in additional greenhouse gas
emissions generated. However, the plan also includes
numerous policies and actions to reduce or eliminate GHG emissions from both new and existing development through incentives and voluntary actions that will meet or exceed the long-term greenhouse gas reduction goals to reduce
emissions at least 66 percent below 2005 levels by 2040 (excluding offsets) through direct and local programs.

However, since the City is relying on incentive-based or voluntary actions to achieve GHG reduction goals, there is a lower degree of certainty that the emissions reductions thresholds would be met compared to regulatory or
mandatory actions.

PS MM 4.6-1a The City of Hermosa Beach will utilize the climate action plan, under development by the South
Bay Cities Council of Governments, and other
appropriate tools to research current data gaps, identify specific actions, and define the responsible parties and time frames needed to achieve the greenhouse gas
reduction goals (monitoring milestones) identified in
mitigation measure MM 4.6-1b.

MM 4.6-1b The City of Hermosa Beach will re-inventory
community GHG emissions and evaluate
implementation progress of policies to reduce GHG
emissions for the calendar year of 2020 and a minimum
of every five years thereafter. The interim reduction
goals to be achieved for consistency with long-term
state goals include:
 2020: 15 percent below 2005 levels
 2025: 31 percent below 2005 levels
 2030: 49 percent below 2005 levels
 2035: 57 percent below 2005 levels
 2040: 66 percent below 2005 levels

stormwater runoff, and associated pollutants. Additionally, construction activities resulting from regional growth could increase the amount of sediments and pollutants in
stormwater runoff and could lead to water quality
degradation. PLAN Hermosa’s contribution would be less
than cumulatively considerable because it would result in minimal changes in stormwater flows and pollutants with implementation of PLAN Hermosa policies and
implementation actions, the City’s LID Ordinance and Green Street Policy, participation in regional plans such as the Beach Cities EWMP, and compliance with existing
regulations.

4.8-12 Cumulative Effects on Groundwater Supply and
Recharge. Anticipated regional growth overlying the West Coast subbasin of the Coastal Plain, Los Angeles Basin, could increase the amount of impervious surface, thereby potentially decreasing the area available for groundwater recharge. PLAN Hermosa’s contribution would be less than cumulatively considerable because new areas of impervious surface as a result of implementing PLAN Hermosa would
be minimal, and new development, redevelopment, and
infrastructure improvements would be required to include LCC None required. N/A

4.8-13 Cumulative Alteration of Stormwater Drainage Systems and Patterns Resulting in Erosion. Anticipated regional growth throughout the Santa Monica Bay Watershed could
increase the amount of impervious surface in the watershed, thereby potentially increasing the total volume and peak discharge rate of stormwater runoff and the potential for erosion and sedimentation. PLAN Hermosa’s contribution
would be less than cumulatively considerable because the planning area is generally built out, which would result in minimal changes in drainage patterns and therefore erosion potential with implementation of PLAN Hermosa policies
and implementation actions, the City’s LID Ordinance and Green Street Policy, participation in regional plans such as the Beach Cities EWMP, and compliance with existing

POSSIBLE AMENDMENT OF

THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION

ORDINANCE
Item 17.e.

Overview
 On July 21, 2025, the City received a
request to remove the property located at
90 Pier Avenue from the list of potential
historic resources protected under the
Historic Resources Preservation Ordinance.
 Existing policy and procedures require an
historic assessment to “de-list” a resource

Background – Local Ordinance
 The City’s Historic Preservation
Ordinance was adopted on November
10,1998 and is codified in Chapter 17.53
of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code.
 At the time of adoption there were three
buildings designated as “potentially
historic landmarks.”
– “Bijou” building at 1227-1235 Hermosa Avenue
– “Bank of America” building at 90 Pier Avenue
– Hermosa Hotel building at 20-26 Pier Avenue

Background – Local Ordinance
 “Landmark” and “potential historic
landmarks” are required to obtain a
certificate of appropriateness for any work
undertaken on the property
 A certificate of appropriateness is a
discretionary approval under the jurisdiction
of City Council

Background – CEQA
In 2018, the City Council adopted PLAN
Hermosa and certified the Program
Environmental Impact Report (EIR). As part of
the EIR analysis, a study of historic properties
was prepared.
 220 properties in the City were identified as
potentially historic, including the former Bank
of America Building at 90 Hermosa Avenue

Background – CEQA
 General Plan mitigation measures were
adopted to reduce the impact of future
development on historic resources.
– MM 4.4-4a - The City shall require project applicants of discretionary projects to conduct historical resources
studies, surveys, and assessment reports on a project-by- project basis, when a project proposes to alter, demolish, or degrade a designated landmark or a potential historic landmark as defined by Hermosa Beach Municipal Code
Section 17.53.
– MM 4.4-4d - Historical resources studies, surveys, and assessment reports shall be performed by persons who
meet the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional
Qualification Standards for Archaeology and Historic
Preservation.

POLICY OPTIONS
Amend the Historic Preservation
Ordinance to

1. Remove a structure or structures

2. Redefine requirements for Certificate
of Appropriateness

OPTION 1 – “DE-LISTING”
This option can be effectuated by hiring a
qualified historic preservation consultant to
evaluate the potential resource.
 The results of the evaluation would be presented to
City Council for consideration.

OPTION 2 – REVISE ORDINANCE
This option can be effectuated by directing staff
to revise the eligibility criteria for the Certificate
of Appropriateness.
 The staff would draft a Zoning Code Amendment
addressing this for City Council consideration.

HERMOSA BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE TO UPDATE THE TERMS OF OFFICE,

APPOINTMENT, AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF CITY COMMISSIONS
CEQA: Determining the ordinance is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act
(City Clerk Myra Maravilla)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Introduce by title only and waive first reading of an ordinance (Attachment 1) titled “An ordinance of the City Council of the City of Hermosa Beach amending various sections of Title 2 of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code to update the terms of office, appointment, and responsibilities of City Commissions and determining the Ordinance is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act;” and

2. Shorten the current terms of the Civil Service Board by 15 days and the Public Works Commission by four months to align all commission terms with the new end date of June 30.

Executive Summary:

The City Council appoints members to four-year terms for the City’s four commissions:
 Civil Service Board;
 Parks, Recreation & Community Resources Advisory Commission;  Planning Commission; and
 Public Works Commission.

Currently, each commission has different start and end dates (Attachment 2), requiring multiple recruitments and interviews throughout the year. To improve efficiency and consistency, staff recommends aligning all commission terms to run from July 1 to June 30 on staggered years. This will allow one annual recruitment cycle instead of several throughout the year.

Background:

The City Clerk’s office manages the recruitment and appointments for all City commissions. The current process includes:
 Announcing upcoming vacancies via a City Council staff report;

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 4
 Advertising openings in local media and through outreach such as social media, cable programming, and email blasts; and
 Scheduling interviews and appointments by the City Council.

Due to the varying commission term dates, this process must be repeated multiple times a year, creating unnecessary workload and scheduling challenges.

In addition to updating the terms of office and appointment process for the City’s commissions, staff recommends revising Title 2 to remove references to the Design Review Board, as its duties are now part of the Planning Commission’s responsibilities and all remaining references have been deleted from the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code. Staff also recommends adding 12-inch tree removal to the Public Works Commission’s responsibilities, consistent with other sections of the HBMC, and deleting the outdated provision prohibiting members of the Hermosa Beach Community Center Foundation Board from serving on the Parks, Recreation and Community Resources Advisory Commission, since that Board no longer exists.

Analysis:

The City Clerk’s office is preparing for the launch of NetFile—a new system to manage online applications and commission onboarding. To ensure a seamless transition to the online platform, staff recommends first aligning all commission terms to the same new end date of June 30. to streamline its board and commission recruitments and onboarding. Before launching this system with online applications, provisions for the appointments, vacancies, absences, and terms of commission members should be aligned to enhance the efficiencies desired of this process.

The proposed term alignment is as displayed in the chart below.

Background
The City Council appoints members to four-year
terms for the City’s four commissions:
• Civil Service Board;
• Parks, Recreation & Community Resources

Background
The City’s commissions are on different cycles:
• Requires multiple recruitments and interviews
throughout the year;
• Creates unnecessary workload; and
• Scheduling challenges.

• Remove references to the Design Review Board, its
responsibilities are embedded in the responsibilities of the Planning Commission;
• Adding 12-inch tree removal to the Public Works
Commission’s responsibilities, consistent with other
sections of the HBMC; and

of the Hermosa Beach Community Center
Foundation Board from serving on the Parks,
Recreation and Community Resources Advisory
Commission, since that Board no longer exists.

Coming Soon—NetFile
• NetFile is a new system the City Clerk’s office is working to implement to manage online commission applications,
onboarding, and required reporting.
• The Clerk’s office aims to launch this system by the end of the year.
• To ensure a seamless transition to the online platform, staff recommends first aligning all commission terms to the end date of June 30.

and responsibilities of City Commissions and
determining the Ordinance is not a project under

TENTATIVE FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS
Attached is the current list of tentative future agenda items for Council’s information.

The tentative future agenda provides a preliminary preview of topics planned for discussion at upcoming City Council meetings over a specified period, typically the next three months. The items listed in this document are "tentatively" scheduled, meaning they are subject to change and should not be considered final until the official agenda for each meeting is posted. This document is a work in progress and offers a glimpse into the City's priorities and planned discussions, allowing stakeholders to anticipate and prepare for potential topics of interest.

Key Features of a Tentative Future Agenda Document:

1. Tentative Schedule: Each agenda item is assigned a tentative date, indicating when it is expected to be discussed. These dates are provisional and may be adjusted based on various factors.

2. Work in Progress: The document is continuously updated as new items emerge, priorities shift, or additional information becomes available. This flexibility ensures City Council can address the most pressing issues in a timely manner.

3. Transparency and Communication: By publishing a tentative future agenda, the City aims to maintain transparency with residents, businesses, and other stakeholders. It helps the community stay informed about potential topics of discussion and provides an opportunity for public engagement and preparation.

4. Fluid Scheduling: The scheduling of agenda items is fluid until the official agenda for a specific City Council meeting is posted. Changes can occur due to various reasons, such as new developments, additional preparatory work required, or changes in workload or priority.

Landscape and Street Lighting District Assessment Adjustment (mail-in election authorization)
Initiated by: Council Direction Jul. 9, 2019
Public Works Director Council approved $25,000 in
the FY 2023-2024 Budget to
study the District rates and to
consider creating a new
supplemental district. The
study will seek to address the
annual operating deficit, so that
no further subsidies from the
General Fund or other
discretionary funds would be
required. The study should
include District-related
recommendations from the
Parks Master Plan, thereby,
shifting completion of the study
to FY 2024-25. The study is
anticipated to take
approximately 4 to 6 months to
complete pending staff
availability. If council agrees to
then advance the adjustment, it
will need to go to a citywide
ballot in compliance with
Proposition 218. The earliest
ballot would be in November
2026.

Consideration of licensing agreement/fees for use of City logo Initiated by: Council Direction Jun. 9, 2020
City Attorney The City will develop a

Administrative Memorandum
(AM) on City Branding and
Logo Use by City Staff. City

AM after finalizing the City’s
style guide and filing its “Intent
to Use” trademark application
for the City logo with the
USPTO. As part of developing
a Licensing Agreement for the
Commercial Use of the City
Logo, staff will establish a
process for reviewing and
handling these requests. This
process will likely include the

5 negotiation of royalties and as
well as the preparation of a
staff report to obtain Council
approval to enter into the
agreement. Only after the City
receives the issuance of a
Notice of Allowance from the
USPTO can it begin approving
applications for commercial
uses of the logo.

Consideration of a Revocation Policy for Parking Permits Related to ShortTerm Rental Violations Initiated by: Council Direction April 9, 2024
Community
Development Director
City Attorney has opined that
the connection between
residential parking permits and
short-term vacation rentals is
strained, enforcement is tough
due to the way certain
properties are held via
corporate entities, and if a
property is used as a STVR and
gets caught, banning them from
getting a residential parking
permit in the future would
seemingly vitiate future legal
use as a long term rental.
