5.5.3 Payments by the City’s Water Utility for the Capital Expense Rate, as calculated under provisions in Section 6.7. These proceeds shall be allocated among the City and Participating Agencies in the proportions set forth in Exhibit B Fixed Capacity amounts.

5.5.4 Those portions of Repurified Water Revenue attributable to the Metro System, as calculated under provisions in Section 6.6.3. These revenues shall be allocated among the City and Participating Agencies in the proportions set forth in Exhibit B Fixed Capacity amounts.

5.5.5 Any other non-operating revenues, including, but not limited to interest income included in the income credit portion of the annual audit.

5.6 Excluded Revenue. The following revenues shall be excluded from Metro System Revenues for purposes of determining the annual FAB rate:

5.6.1 Proceeds from the issuance of debt for Metro System projects.

5.7 Estimate and Billing Schedule and Year End Adjustment.

5.7.1 The City shall estimate the FAB rates on an annual basis prior to January 15 and provide budget estimates for the upcoming fiscal year to all Parties. The City shall quantify the FAB rates by estimating the quantity of Flow, Strength, and Fixed Capacity Charges for each Party, based on that Party’s Metered Flow for the past year and the cumulative data of sampling for Strength constituents such as COD and TSS over the preceding five years and Fixed Capacities set forth in Exhibit B. If the cumulative five-year Strength data is no longer indicative of discharge from a Party, and a Contract Capacity Transfer has been approved pursuant to Sections 4.4.3.1,

4.4.3.2, or 3.2, then the City may eliminate the previous higher readings subject to the City’s Administrative Approval.

5.7.2 Prior to March 1 of each year the City will provide a mid-year review of the current year’s Metro System Capital Improvement Costs and Operations and Maintenance Costs and offsetting non-operating revenues such as grant or loan proceeds, including fiscal year-end projections and provide such reviews to the Participating Agencies.

5.7.3 The City shall determine the volume of MBC Return on an annual basis and for billing purposes only. The costs of treating MBC Return shall be allocated to the Parties in proportion to their Metered Flow and Strength. If a Party’s Monthly Average Daily Flow plus MBC Return exceeds their Contract Capacity set forth in Exhibit B, it shall not be treated as an exceedance pursuant to Section 4.4.3.1.

5.7.4 The City shall bill the Participating Agencies quarterly, invoicing on August 1, November 1, February 1 and May 1. Each bill shall be paid within thirty (30) days of mailing. Quarterly payments will consist of the total estimated cost for each Participating Agency, based on their estimated Flow, Strength, and Fixed Capacity Charges, divided by four.

5.7.5 At the end of each fiscal year, the City shall determine the actual Metro System Costs and the actual Metered Flow as well as the cumulative Strength data for the City and

each of the Participating Agencies. The City shall make any necessary adjustments to the unit rates for Flow and Strength such as COD, TSS and Fixed Capacity Charges based on actual costs for the year as determined through the annual audit process in Section 5.8.2 of this Agreement. The City shall then recalculate the FAB rate for the year using actual audited costs for the year, actual Metered Flow, Residuals, MBC Return, cumulative Strength factors, and Fixed Capacity Charges for the City and for each Participating Agency. The City shall credit any future charges or bill for any additional amounts due against the quarter after the prior year costs have been audited.

5.8 Financial Statements.

5.8.1 The City shall keep records and accounts of all costs and expenses relating to conveyance, treatment, disposal, and reuse of wastewater, and production of Repurified Water, and the acquisition, planning, design, construction, administration, monitoring, operation and maintenance of the Metro System and Water Repurification System, and any grants, loans, or other revenues received therefor. The City shall keep such records and accounts for at least four (4) years after the completed audit, or for any longer period required by law or outside funding sources.

5.8.2 Annual Audit. Said records and accounts shall be subject to reasonable inspection by any authorized representative of any Participating Agency at its expense. Further, said accounts and records shall be audited annually by an independent certified public accounting firm appointed by the City. A copy of said report shall be available to any Participating Agency.

As part of said audit, the actual amount of City Water Utility’s PW Costs, Pure Water Program costs attributable to the Metro System, Repurified Water Revenue, and the Capital Expense Rate shall be determined and audited by the City’s external auditors and Participating Agency representatives, and a cumulative and annual summary of such amounts shall be included as a footnote or attached to the audit of the Metro System. Cost summaries shall include separate lines for Capital Improvement Costs and Operation and Maintenance Costs.

5.8.3 The City shall make a good faith effort to complete the annual audit, and any related adjustments under this Agreement as described in Section 5.8.2, by the end of the following fiscal year.

5.9 Debt Financing. The City retains the sole right to determine the timing and amount of debt financing required to provide Metro System Facilities. The annual debt service plus inprogress Capital Improvement Costs to maintain capacity in and of the Metro System shall be allocated to the Participating Agencies consistent with the Exhibit B Contract Capacity allocations effective on the date the debt is issued. If a Participating Agency wishes to prepay Capital Improvement Costs, and the City is able to accommodate such a request, then a Participating Agency may prepay their proportional share of Capital Improvement Projects. If a Participating Agency wishes to withdraw or reduce their Flows and/or Strengths from the Metro System per Section 2.3.3 of this Agreement, such agency will remain responsible for its pro-rata share of all outstanding debt incurred at the time the debt was issued until it is satisfied, irrespective of withdrawal, reduction in Flows and/or Strengths, or Agreement expiration. If the City refunds debt, it shall allocate such refunds consistent with the Exhibit B Contract Capacity allocations effective on the date the debt was issued.

5.10 Allocation of Operating Reserves and Debt Service Coverage. The Parties shall continue to comply with the protocol set forth in Exhibit C, Administrative Protocol on Allocation of Operating Reserves and Debt Service Coverage to Participating Agencies, which exhibit may be amended from time to time consistent with Section 5.11.

5.11 Amending the System of Charges. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2.1.63, the Parties may amend any provision in this Section 5 regarding the Finance, Budgeting, and Accounting System of Charges in an Administrative Agreement subject to the Joint Administrative Approval Process set forth in Section 15.

6. FINANCE, BUDGETING, AND ACCOUNTING: PURE WATER PROGRAM COST ALLOCATION AND REVENUES – PHASE 1

6.1 North City Water Reclamation Plant Modification. As part of Phase 1 of the Pure Water Program, the City intends to modify the North City Water Reclamation Plant (a Metro System facility) and expand its capacity to 52 MGD. In addition, the City intends to construct the North City Pure Water Facility on a nearby site to produce Repurified Water. This Section sets forth the costs and revenues associated with the Pure Water Program attributable to the Metro System. Exhibit A includes current constructed Metro System facilities and existing and proposed future Phase 1 facilities.

6.2 New, Expanded or Modified Metro System Facilities. Each new, expanded, or modified Metro System facility, which is part of the Pure Water Program, and is used in relation to the production of Repurified Water (in addition to the modification and expansion of the North City Water Reclamation Plant) shall be governed by this Section.

6.3 Costs Excluded from Metro System Costs – Phase 1. All of the following Pure Water Program costs, including Capital Improvement Costs, Operation and Maintenance Costs, and other related costs (including administration, insurance, claims, and overhead) shall be excluded from Metro System Costs for purposes of calculating the annual FAB rate.

6.3.1 General Exclusions:

6.3.1.1 Costs of the Water Repurification System and any Metro System facilities to the extent constructed, modified, expanded, or used for the purpose of treating wastewater beyond secondary treatment (ocean discharge standard under current law). This shall include costs for preliminary treatment, primary treatment, and secondary treatment to the extent such costs are higher than they would otherwise be due to the production of Repurified Water.

6.3.1.2 Costs for fail-safe disposal, if necessary, for design capacity for Repurified Water, including, but not limited to, any costs associated with the reservation of capacity at the Point Loma Wastewater Treatment Plant.

6.3.1.3 Costs for the demolition or replacement of existing Metro System facilities with similar facilities for the purpose of making space available for Water Repurification System facilities. Such costs may consider the current asset value or market value of the existing Metro System facility.

4908-4931-4742

6.3.2 Cost Exclusions Specific to North City Water Reclamation Plant Improvements:

6.3.2.1 Costs for increased aeration tank volume to the extent the new volume exceeds the amount necessary to provide 52 MGD capacity. Determination of sizing to provide 52 MGD capacity shall be based on the current tank volume necessary to provide 30 MGD capacity.

6.3.2.2 Costs for the methanol feed system.

6.3.2.3 Costs for RSDP disposal, including, but not limited to, pump stations, pipelines, retreatment, ocean outfall, and monitoring.

6.3.2.4 Costs for the use of existing tertiary water filters for Repurified Water purposes. Such costs may consider the depreciated value of such filters or use such other appropriate valuation methods as agreed by the City and authorized representatives of the Metro JPA. Costs under this section shall be reimbursed or credited by City’s Water Utility to the Metro System.

6.4 North City Water Reclamation Plant Improvement Costs Included as Metro System Costs. Notwithstanding the above exclusions, the City and the Participating Agencies have specifically agreed that the following Capital Improvement Costs and Operation and Maintenance Costs related to North City Water Reclamation Plant improvements shall be included as Metro System Costs for purposes of calculating the annual FAB rate (and therefore not qualify as City Water Utility PW Costs):

6.4.1 Costs for chemically enhanced primary treatment for up to 52 MGD capacity.

6.4.2 Costs for primary effluent equalization for up to 52 MGD capacity.

6.4.3 Costs for increased volume of aeration tanks that will provide up to, but not exceeding, 52 MGD capacity.

6.4.4 Costs to add secondary clarifier tanks sufficient for up to 52 MGD capacity.

6.4.5 Costs for wastewater conveyance facilities to provide wastewater for replacement of Centrate flows that cannot be treated at the North City Water Reclamation Plant due to the production of Repurified Water.

6.4.6 Costs for treatment and conveyance of all MBC Return (micro-filtration and tertiary backwash) based on Flow, COD, and TSS.

6.5 Reallocation of PWP Costs incurred since FY 2014.

4908-4931-4742

6.5.1 The allocation of Pure Water Program costs, retroactive to June 30, 2014, will be calculated the year the Agreement goes into effect, will be completed no less than two fiscal years following the production of 30 MGD by Phase 1 of the Pure Water Program.

6.5.1.1 All the O&M task orders, or costs that cannot be directly assigned to a PWP Phase 1 capital improvement project such as program management, environmental documents, etc., will be reallocated by the final water/wastewater cost split, and will include interest accruing since June 2014 at the interest rate earned by the City of San Diego for each applicable fiscal year as shown by the sample interest calculation included in Exhibit G, Sample of Interest Calculation. This postpones the reconciliation of costs until the substantial completion of all construction projects for Phase 1 (City Water Utility PW Costs and Metro). This reconciliation will be performed during the audit of the fiscal year in which substantial completion of all projects occurs.

6.5.1.2 All Phase 1 PWP CIP projects were bid and awarded by October 2022 which is FY2023. All shared Phase 1 CIP projects will be reallocated to the actual construction cost split once the project is awarded, and the cost loaded CPM is completed and negotiated between the City and the Participating Agencies during the FY2023 audit. All CIP soft costs incurred since 2014 will be reallocated like the O&M task orders during the audit of the year of substantial completion of the actual Phase 1 CIP projects. If interest is owed to the Metro System for soft costs starting in FY 2014, such interest shall be considered Metro System Revenues consistent with Section 5.5.5.

6.6 Revenue Sharing for Repurified Water.

6.6.1 Background. Initially, the Parties anticipate that the cost per acre foot associated with the production of Repurified Water will be more expensive than the cost per acre foot of untreated imported water. However, it is anticipated that Repurified Water produced under Phase 1 will be less expensive than untreated imported water sometime in the future. Once Repurified Water produced under Phase 1 becomes less expensive than the cost of untreated imported water, the Parties agree that there will be revenue from the Pure Water Program.

6.6.2 Calculation. Revenue sharing shall occur in each fiscal year during which the annual cost per acre foot associated with the production of Repurified Water is less than the cost of untreated water per acre foot from the San Diego County Water Authority (“CWA”). The annual cost difference shall be known as “Repurified Water Revenue.” Repurified Water Revenue shall be determined as follows:

Page 275 of 575 ends

- 30 - 10-23-25
6-12-26
4907-3419-68444932-3639-7490
4908-4931-4742
Annual cost per acre foot of CWA untreated water purchased by the City for delivery at Miramar Reservoir (which shall be determined based on the total costs for water actually billed to the City by CWA for water delivered at Miramar Reservoir in a fiscal year, divided by the number of acre-feet of CWA water delivered at Miramar Reservoir that year)
less
Annual cost per acre-foot of City Water Utility PW Costs (which shall be determined based on total annual City Water Utility PW Costs divided by the number of acre-feet of Repurified Water actually produced in that year) the result of which is multiplied by
The number of acre feet of Repurified Water produced by Pure Water Program facilities during the applicable fiscal year.

Exhibit H, Summary of Billings from County Water Authority Showing Costs for Untreated Water, is a summary of the most recent CWA rate structure and cost allocations to the City of San Diego for untreated water. The Parties agree that Exhibit H shall be referred to by the Parties in the future in determining how costs for water delivered at Miramar Reservoir are calculated. If no untreated water is delivered at Miramar Reservoir in a given year, then the closest point of delivery of untreated water to the City shall be used. The City shall annually update Exhibit H to reflect the most recent CWA rate structure and cost allocations to the City of San Diego.

The City shall estimate whether there will be Repurified Water Revenue in the upcoming fiscal year prior to January 15 of each year, and these amounts shall be incorporated into the budget estimates for the upcoming fiscal year to all Parties.

6.6.3 Revenue Sharing. Repurified Water Revenue shall initially be shared between the City’s Water Utility and the Metro System based on the relative actual Capital Improvement Costs for the Pure Water Program contributed by City’s Water Utility and the Metro System. Such Capital Improvement Cost contributions are currently estimated as 62% City’s Water Utility and 38% Metro System. The Metro System’s portion of the Repurified Water Revenue shall be applied to debt attributable to the Metro System first, until the debt attributable to the Metro System is fully paid.

Following full payment of debt attributable to the Metro System, Repurified Water Revenue shall be shared based on the relative actual Operation and Maintenance Costs for Pure Water Program facilities contributed by City’s Water Utility and the Metro System, calculated annually. Such Operation and Maintenance Costs are currently estimated as 76% City’s Water Utility and 24% Metro System on an annual basis.

In all instances referred to in this Section 6.6.3, the Metro System portion of the Repurified Water Revenue shall be allocated among the City and the Participating Agencies consistent with Section 4.4.2.

4908-4931-4742

6.6.4 Year-End Adjustment. At the end of each fiscal year during which there is Repurified Water Revenue, the City shall determine the actual cost per acre foot of CWA untreated water purchased by the City, the actual cost per acre foot of City Water Utility PW Costs, and the actual amount of Repurified Water produced at Pure Water Program facilities.

Based on the actual cost and production information, the City will recalculate the Repurified Water Revenue for the prior fiscal year. The City will credit any future charges or bill for any additional amounts due the quarter after the prior year costs have been audited.

6.6.5 Change in Potable Reuse Method. The Parties acknowledge that the Pure Water Program Phase 1 will initially use indirect potable reuse surface water augmentation. The use of CWA untreated water costs in calculating Repurified Water Revenue is intended to provide an appropriate point of comparison to costs for producing Repurified Water that will be introduced into surface water. The Parties agree that if the City desires to implement direct potable reuse (in which Repurified Water would be introduced directly into a water supply pipeline or facility), the Parties shall meet and negotiate in good faith regarding an amendment to this Section 6.6, to appropriately update the formula for Repurified Water Revenue, which form of amendment shall occur via an Administrative Agreement and shall be subject to the Joint Administrative Approval Process set forth in Section 15.

6.7 Capital Expense Rate.

6.7.1 Background. The Point Loma Wastewater Treatment Plant operates under a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”) permit modified under section 301(h) & (j)(5) of the Clean Water Act. If such modified permit were ever revoked or not renewed, the Parties agree that, under current law, the City would have an obligation to upgrade the PLWTP to secondary treatment. The Parties further agree that $1.8 billion is a fair and comprehensive estimation of the costs that could be incurred by the Metro System to meet the legal requirements related to the Metro System under current law. The estimate of $1.8 billion is based on the net present value of the capital cost to develop 180 MGD of secondary treatment at PLWTP as of November 15, 2018.

Therefore, the Parties agree that $1.8 billion represents the maximum amount of Capital Improvement Costs that the Metro System should be obligated to contribute to the Pure Water Program, the purpose of which is not solely the disposal of wastewater, but also the production of Repurified Water. The Parties agree that this $1.8 billion maximum contribution should apply whether or not the PLWTP is actually upgraded to secondary treatment to meet legal requirements in the future because, as of the date of the Agreement, the Parties have the option of upgrading the PLWTP to full secondary treatment for the cost of approximately $1.8 billion.

In light of the above, the Parties have agreed that if Metro System costs related to the Pure Water Program exceed the $1.8 billion, City’s Water Utility will pay a charge for each acre foot of secondary treated effluent produced by Metro System facilities and used for the production of Repurified Water.

4907-3419-68444932-3639-7490
4908-4931-4742

6.7.2 Capital Expense Rate. Under the circumstances described in this Section 6.7, City’s Water Utility shall pay a charge (“Capital Expense Rate”) for each acre-foot of secondary treated effluent produced by Metro System facilities and used for the production of Repurified Water. The Capital Expense Rate costs or revenues attributable to the Metro System shall be assessed or credited consistent with Section 4.4.2. City’s Water Utility shall pay the Capital Expense Rate if the following costs alone, or in combination, exceed $1.8 billion (which amount shall be adjusted for inflation):

6.7.2.1 The sum of all Capital Improvement Costs and associated debt attributable to the Metro System components of the Pure Water Program under this Section 6.7.2; and/or

6.7.2.2 The sum of all Capital Improvement Costs and associated debt for the full or partial upgrading of the PLWTP to secondary treatment.

Notwithstanding the above, the Capital Expense Rate shall not apply if the PLWTP is actually upgraded to secondary treatment (or beyond) due to: (a) a change in federal or state statutory law making it necessary to upgrade the PLWTP to comply with such new discharge standard; or (b) a final decision by a state or federal court or a federal administrative agency of competent jurisdiction that an NPDES permit modified under section 301(h) & G)(5) of the Clean Water Act is thereby revoked or denied renewal due to a finding that the discharge from the PLWTP violates anti-degradation rules or regulations promulgated under section 403 of the Clean Water Act.

6.7.3 Calculation of Capital Expense Rate. The amount per acre-foot of the Capital Expense Rate shall be determined as follows:

The sum of all Capital Improvement Costs and associated debt attributable to (i) the Metro System components of the Pure Water Program under this Section 6 and (ii) upgrading of the PLWTP to secondary treatment (if any) less
$1.8 billion, as adjusted for inflation each July 1 (starting on July 1, 2019) to reflect the annual percentage change in the Engineering News Records – Los Angeles construction cost index

4907-3419-68444932-3639-7490
4908-4931-4742
the result of which is multiplied by

1.42 (which estimates the total interest on a 30-year State Revolving Fund loan with an interest rate of 2.5%)
the result of which is divided by
The total number of acre feet per year of secondary treated effluent that is expected to be produced by Metro System facilities for the production of Repurified Water over a period of thirty (30) years.

The City shall estimate whether the Capital Expense Rate shall apply to the upcoming fiscal year (and its amount) prior to January 15 of each year, and the estimated amount of the Capital Expense Rate shall be effective on July 1 of the upcoming fiscal year.

For purposes of this Section 6.7.3, Capital Improvement Costs and associated debt shall include such costs and revenue incurred by the Metro System prior to the effective date of the Agreement.

6.7.4 Year-End Adjustment. At the end of each fiscal year during which the Capital Expense Rate applies, the City shall determine the actual Capital Improvement Costs and associated debt attributable to the Metro System components of the Pure Water Program under this Section 6 and any upgrading of the PLWTP to secondary treatment, and the actual amount of secondary treated effluent produced by Metro System facilities and used for the production of Repurified Water.

Based on the actual cost, interest, and effluent information, the City will recalculate the Capital Expense Rate for the prior fiscal year. The City will credit any future charges or bill for any additional amounts due the quarter after the prior year costs have been audited.

6.7.5 Duration; Expiration. The Capital Expense Rate shall continue until the cost difference between (a) the actual sum of Pure Water Program Capital Improvement Costs and associated debt attributable to the Metro System under Section 6.7 and/or the costs to upgrade the PLWTP and (b) $1.8 billion (as adjusted for inflation), has been fully paid, or the Agreement expires, whichever is sooner. Notwithstanding, it is the express intent and desire of the City and the Participating Agencies that if the Agreement expires before the cost difference has been paid through the Capital Expense Rate, that the Capital Expense Rate continue in any extension of this Agreement negotiated by the Parties pursuant to Section 14.2 until the cost difference has been fully paid.

6.8 Amending Pure Water Program Cost Allocation and Revenues – Phase 1. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.6.2, the Parties may amend any provision in this Section 6 regarding the Finance, Budgeting, and Accounting for the Pure Water Program Cost Allocation and Revenues for Phase 1 in an Administrative Agreement subject to the Joint Administrative Approval Process set forth in Section 15.

7. FINANCE, BUDGETING, AND ACCOUNTING: PURE WATER PROGRAM COST ALLOCATION AND REVENUES – PHASE 2

7.1 Pure Water Program – Phase 2. The Second Phase of the Pure Water Program (“Phase 2”) shall create up to an additional 53 MGD of Repurified Water at Phase 2 facilities. The Parties agree to incorporate all terms relating to Phase 2 into this Agreement through an Administrative Agreement subject to the Joint Administrative Approval Process set forth in Section 15, subject to the requirements set forth in this Section 7 below.

7.2 Costs Excluded As Metro System Costs.

Costs Excluded from Metro System Costs for Phase 2 shall be identified in an Administrative Agreement subject to the Joint Administrative Approval Process and approvals set forth in Section 15. However, the Administrative Agreement must reflect that all of the following PWP Phase 2 costs, including Capital Improvement Costs, Operation and Maintenance Costs, and other related costs (including administration, insurance, claims, and overhead) shall be excluded from Metro System Costs for the purposes of calculating the annual Phase 2 FAB rate, and shall be City Water Utility PW Costs:

7.2.1 Costs of the Phase 2 Water Repurification System and any Metro System facilities to the extent constructed, modified, expanded, or used for the purpose of treating water beyond secondary treatment (ocean discharge standard under current law). This shall include costs for preliminary treatment, primary treatment, and secondary treatment to the extent such costs are higher than they would otherwise be due to the production of Phase 2 Repurified Water.

7.2.2 Costs for fail-safe disposal, if necessary, for design capacity for Phase 2 Repurified Water, including, but not limited to, any costs associated with the reservation of capacity at the Point Loma Wastewater Treatment Plant.

7.2.3 Costs for the demolition or replacement of existing Metro System facilities with similar facilities for the purpose of making space available for Phase 2 Water Repurification System facilities. Such costs may take into account the current asset value or market value of the existing Metro System facility.

7.2.4 Costs for the Phase 2 methanol feed system.

7.2.5 Costs for Phase 2 RSDP disposal including, but not limited to, pump stations, pipelines, retreatment, ocean outfall, and monitoring.

7.2.6 50% of the costs for the MBR Tanks and system for Phase 2.

7.2.7 All membrane integrity monitoring systems for Phase 2.

7.2.8 All Phase 2 systems downstream of MBR’s.

7.3 Revenue Sharing for Repurified Water – Phase 2. Terms regarding revenue sharing for Repurified Water for Phase 2 shall be identified in an Administrative Agreement subject to the

Joint Administrative Approval Process set forth in Section 15. However, this Administrative Agreement must reflect terms related to Phase 2 revenue sharing for Repurified Water that conceptually mimic those terms set forth in Section 6.6. The Metro System portion of the Repurified Water Revenue for Phase 2 shall be allocated among the City and the Participating Agencies consistent with Section 4.4.2, as may be amended or updated to account for changes in PWP Phase 2.

7.4 Capital Expense Rate – Phase 2. Terms regarding the Capital Expense Rate for Phase 2 shall be identified in an Administrative Agreement subject to the Joint Administrative Approval Process and approvals set forth in Section 15. However, this Administrative Agreement must reflect terms that conceptually mimic the terms in Section 6.7, reflecting a continuation of the Capital Expense Rate through Phase 2 up until the PWP achieves up to 83 MGD of Repurified Water, taking into account production of water suitable for potable reuse occurring at all treatment processes for wastewater upstream from and at the PLWTP.

9. THE METRO COMMISSION

9.1 Establishment and Membership. The 1998 Agreement created and established (and the ARA reestablished) the Metro Commission as a commission consisting of one representative from each Participating Agency. On October 25, 2000, the Participating Agencies entered into a Joint Exercise of Power Agreement which created a separate public entity, the Metro Wastewater Joint Powers Authority (“Metro JPA”), for the purpose, among others, of taking responsibility, actions, and making decisions pertaining to the 1998 Agreement on behalf of the Participating Agencies. The Metro Commission and the Metro JPA are and shall hereinafter be treated as one and the same entity for all intents and purposes under this Agreement, including for the purpose of accepting and executing the responsibilities delegated to the Metro JPA in this Agreement. Each Participating Agency shall have the right to appoint a representative of its choice to the Metro Commission/Metro JPA, and the Participating Agency’s appointee to the Metro Commission shall also serve as that Participating Agency’s representative on the Metro JPA Board of Directors. If a Participating Agency is a dependent district whose governing body is that of another independent public agency, that Participating Agency shall be represented on the Metro Commission/Metro JPA by a representative appointed by the governing body which shall have no more than one representative no matter how many Participating Agencies it governs. Each member

ITEM TITLE: RESOLUTION NO. 2026-073 AWARDING A PUBLIC WORKS CONTRACT TO AZTEC LANDSCAPING, INC. TO PERFORM BICENTENNIAL TRIANGLE PARK IMPROVEMENTS. (0940-10 & 0680-95 & 0920-60)
ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT:

Public Works
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Bicentennial Triangle Park Improvements project would construct beautification improvements including restabilizing and recompacting decomposed granite and enhancing landscaping elements.

Resolution No. 2026-073 would award a public works contract to Aztec Landscaping, Inc. to perform Bicentennial Triangle Park Improvements for a not-to-exceed amount of $100,000. Aztec Landscaping, Inc. was the lowest responsible and qualified bidder.

RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. 2026-073 to award a public works contract to Aztec Landscaping, Inc. for an amount not-to-exceed $100,000 for the Bicentennial Triangle Park Improvements project.

OPTIONS:
 Approve resolution and recommendation from staff; or
 Reject bids and provide direction to staff on how to proceed on the project, or  Request additional information and an additional report.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In 2004 voters in San Diego County approved a 40-year extension to TransNet, a program designed to fund improvements to the region’s transportation system first initiated in 1987. The prime component of the program is a half-cent sales tax. In addition to the sales tax extension, the TransNet program required implementation of a new local funding source for the Regional Transportation Congestion Improvement Program (RTCIP). The purpose of the RTCIP is to ensure that new development directly invests in the region’s transportation system to offset the negative impacts of growth on congestion and mobility. Beginning July 1, 2008 each local agency had to collect $2,000 for each new residence constructed and revenues had to be expended on improvements to the Regional Arterial System. Each year the SANDAG Board of Directors adjust the RTCIP fee to account for inflation to ensure that purchasing power is maintained. The current fee for fiscal year 2027 is $3,109.88. State Route 75 is the only City roadway included in the Regional Arterial System.

In recent years, the RTCIP fee has funded a variety of improvements on State Route 75. The current RTCIP balance is approximately $136,000.

Page 307 of 575 ends

P a g e | 2
On April 2, 2025, Resolution No. 2025-014 approved the RTCIP Project Plan to construct beautification improvements including restabilizing and recompacting of decomposed granite and enhancing landscaping elements at Bicentennial Triangle Park and appropriated $75,000 from the RTCIP balance to the overall project budget.

The City utilized the California Uniform Public Construction Accounting Act, which allows for informal or formal bidding procedures for public projects less than $220,000. The City emailed a Request for Proposals, which included a scope of work, to five qualified contractors that are listed on the City’s list of qualified contractors.

The City received two proposals. The following are the bid results:

Contractor Bid

1. Aztec Landscaping, Inc. $96,154.00

2. Ace Excavating and Environmental Services, Inc. $137,350.00 Upon review of the bids, the lowest responsible and qualified bid was submitted by Aztec Landscaping, Inc. Staff recommends awarding the contract for a not-to-exceed amount of $100,000 to Aztec Landscaping, Inc., which includes the Bid for $96,154, a Performance Bond for the contractor in the amount of $1,243 and $2,603 in Contingency.

TASK FORCE ON HOMELESSNESS TO FUND THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH WORKER POSITION FOR 2026-2027 FISCAL YEAR. (0390-84 & 0520-05) ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT:

Community Development
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Resolution No. 2026-080 seeks the ratification of a subrecipient agreement to accept and appropriate $54,085 from the Regional Task Force on Homelessness (“RTFH”), which amount would be used to provide funding for one half of a full-time employee in the position of Community Outreach Worker. The city already budgets for one half of the position out of the general fund, and this grant would allow for the continuation of a full-time Community Outreach Worker by providing funding for the remaining half. The resolution also authorizes the Finance Director to deposit said grant funds and to process budget amendments to accept funds and appropriate expenditures as needed. The receipt of the grant, as well as any related expenditures, would be included in the upcoming FY2026/FY2027 budget.

RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. 2026-080 ratifying an agreement to accept and appropriate $54,085 from the RTFH to provide funding for one half of a full-time employee in the position of Community Outreach Worker.

The City Council can also:

The RTFH is looking to continue its partnership with the City of Imperial Beach and to provide funding for one half of a full-time employee in the position of Community Outreach Worker. The City already partners with the RTFH through a similar grant and for a comparable purpose, supporting efforts to address homelessness in the community. Recognizing the need for a fulltime position, the City applied for an additional grant from the RTFH, which was awarded. The City previously budgeted for only one half of a full-time Community Outreach Worker out of the general fund; this new grant will provide funding for the remaining half, allowing for a full-time

Page 311 of 575 ends

ITEM TITLE: FAR WEST INDUSTRIES SEEKS APPROVAL TO CONSTRUCT ONE NEW, THREE-STORY, MIXED-USED BUILDING WITH 1,847 SQ. FT. OF COMMERCIAL SPACE, SIX DWELLING UNITS, AND 14 PARKING SPACES LOCATED AT 829 SEACOAST DR., & CEQA EXEMPTION PURSUANT TO SECTION 15332. (0600-20)
ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT:

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Far West Industries (“Applicant”) has initiated the process of constructing a new, three-story, mixed-use building with 1,847 square feet of commercial space, six dwelling units, and 14 parking spaces on a property located at 829 Seacoast Drive (“Project”). The property is zoned C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed Use). The City Council previously approved the Project on June 17, 2026, through Resolution No. 2026-061. However, due to administrative changes implemented by the California Coastal Commission (“Coastal Commission”) following the original approval, the project must be reconsidered at a new public hearing before the City Council. The project remains unchanged from the version approved by the City Council in June 2026, and no modifications to the approved plans are proposed.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 2026-076, approving Regular Coastal Permit CP-25-0005, Design Review Case DRC-25-0004, Site Plan Review SPR-25-0004, Tentative Map TM-25-0002, at 829 Seacoast Drive (APN 625-272-23-00) in the C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed Use) zone subject to the conditions as specified in the resolution.

OPTIONS:

In addition to reviewing this report and adopting staff recommendations, the City Council can:
 Approve the Project with modifications requested by the City Council; or  Deny the Project and the requested permits by making specific findings for denial; or  Continue the Public Hearing to a specific future meeting to allow staff to provide additional information upon which a decision can be rendered.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

An application (USE-25-0034)
was submitted to the City on
August 14, 2025, for a
Regular Coastal Permit (CP25-0005), Design Review
Case (DRC-25-0004), Site
Plan Review (SPR-25-0004),
and Tentative Map (TM-25-
0002). The application
proposes the construction of
one new, three-story, mixeduse building with 1,847 sq. ft. of commercial space, six
dwelling units, and 14 parking
spaces. Each unit includes
three bedrooms and provides
between 1,667 and 2,009 square feet of habitable space.

The Project site is an existing 9,550 square foot lot located at the northeast corner of Seacoast Drive and Date Avenue. Vehicular ingress and egress to the property would be provided from a public alley which fronts Seacoast Drive and is immediately adjacent to the property on the north.

Both residential and commercial off-street parking would be accessed from the public alley.

Pedestrian access to the commercial space would be provided from Seacoast Drive via enhanced paving, while pedestrian access to the dwelling units would be provided from Date Avenue through pervious pavers and a security gate. The properties to the north, west, and south are also zoned C/MU-2 while the property to the east is zoned R-2000 (Medium Density Residential) and is currently being used for residential use.

Administrative Changes from the Coastal Commission
Following the City Council's approval of the Project on June 17, 2026, staff submitted a Notice of Final Action (“NOFA”) to the Coastal Commission pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 13571. The NOFA serves as the official notification of local action on a Coastal Development Permit (“CDP”). Upon review, the Coastal Commission determined that the NOFA was incomplete because Resolution No. 2026-061 and the associated project documents, including the public notice and staff report, did not include information regarding the procedures for appealing the City's decision to the Coastal Commission or indicate that the local action was subject to appeal. The Coastal Commission advised that, based on the draft updated Coastal Zone jurisdictional boundary map, the project is located within the Coastal Commission's appeal jurisdiction rather than solely within the City's CDP jurisdiction, as described in the original resolution, staff report, and public notice. Staff noted that the City's certified 1986 Coastal Zone boundary map indicates the project is outside the Coastal Commission's appeal jurisdiction and that the original jurisdictional determination was based on the currently certified map. The Coastal Commission advised that, as the agency responsible for determining Coastal Zone jurisdictional boundaries, it considers the Project to be within its appeal jurisdiction based on the draft updated boundary map. Accordingly, the Project has been properly noticed and is being reconsidered by the City Council.

Building Orientation and Design:

The proposed development is a contemporary three-story mixed-use building designed to enhance the surrounding built environment while providing a modern, functional, and visually engaging architectural presence (Attachment 3). The building’s massing is articulated through a series of clean, geometric forms that establish a strong street identity and create visual interest

Page 364 of 575 ends

P a g e | 3
from multiple vantage points. Expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing along Seacoast Drive activates the pedestrian realm and promotes natural daylight penetration into interior spaces, while angled glazing along the south façade frames preferred views for occupants and enhances visual articulation.

To further enhance the building’s architectural character and pedestrian experience along Seacoast Drive, a patio cover provides shade and visual definition to the first-floor elevations.. In addition, the building incorporates roof decks and balconies that foster indoor-outdoor connectivity and provide flexible gathering spaces for occupants.

The Project also incorporates building setbacks and stepbacks to reduce perceived massing and ensure compatibility with surrounding development. Along the eastern property line adjacent to the residential zoning, the design includes a five-foot setback and stepback at the first and second floors, with a ten-foot stepback at the third floor, providing visual relief and minimizing potential impacts. Along Seacoast Drive, the second and third floors are stepped back approximately 6 feet 10 inches to 14 feet 4 inches on each floor from the western property line, further reducing the building’s massing and enhancing its relationship to the public realm.

Building Height
When measuring from the average of the existing grade, the overall height of the building, including the roof decks and parapets, is approximately 33’ – 1 ½”. However, pursuant to Imperial Beach Municipal Code (“IBMC”) section 19.40.020, parapets may extend above the height limit.

Not including the parapets that extend above the height limit, the building height from the average of the existing grade is 29’ – 7 ½”, which complies with the 30’ building height limit in the C/MU-2 zone.

Pursuant to IBMC section 19.27.070 (B), all commercial spaces on the ground floor shall have a minimum fifteen-foot floor-to-ceiling height. The Project is proposing a floor-to-ceiling height of fifteen feet, which is compliant with the City’s regulations.

Building Materials:

The Project’s exterior design incorporates a refined palette of materials, including stucco, composite siding, metal/window trim, and stone tile veneer (Attachment 4). The stucco would be finished in Sherwin-Williams SW 7008 Alabaster (Omega White), while the composite siding would feature Sherwin-Williams SW 7015 Repose Gray. Window frames and metal trim elements would be finished in Sherwin-Williams SW 6258 Tricorn Black, creating a contrast against the lighter wall surfaces. The stone tile veneer would consist of Arizona Tile Anthea Dark with a matte finish, adding texture and visual depth to the façade. Complementing these primary materials, accent elements would incorporate Sherwin-Williams SW 6244 Naval as the primary accent color and Sherwin-Williams Indigo Batik as the secondary accent color. The exterior palette would be completed with Charcoal Timberline HDZ roof shingles, providing a cohesive and contemporary architectural appearance.

Landscaping
Pursuant to IBMC section 19.50.030, no less than fifteen percent of the total site shall be landscaped and permanently maintained. Based on the Project’s 9,550-square-foot lot size, a minimum of 1,432.5 square feet of on-site landscaping is required. The Project provides a total of 1,173 square feet (12.28%) of on-site landscaping, located along the site perimeter to enhance aesthetic appeal and site drainage, as well as within a second-floor courtyard in the form of planters. In recognition of the on-site landscaping requirement deficiency, the Applicant has proposed shade street trees and drought-tolerant landscaping within the public right-of-way along both Seacoast Drive and Date Avenue, totaling 352 square feet (2.72%) of additional landscaped area.

Page 365 of 575 ends

P a g e | 4
During the project review, staff recommended that the Applicant comply with the minimum 15 percent on-site landscaping requirement. However, the Applicant respectfully requested that the landscaped areas within the public right-of-way be credited toward the Project’s total landscape calculations. The Applicant believes that including these areas would allow the Project to meet the minimum 15 percent landscaping requirement, while also contributing to the visual quality of the streetscape and enhancing the overall landscape performance of the development. In addition, the Applicant stated that the proposed public right-of-way landscaping further supports stormwater management objectives by capturing runoff and improving stormwater quality.

Because these improvements are directly adjacent to the Project site, are designed as an integrated extension of the Project’s landscape plan, and provide long-term public benefit, the Applicant requested that these landscaped areas be considered toward compliance. The landscaping within the public right-of-way along Seacoast Drive and Date Avenue would be installed and permanently maintained by the property owner.

Because this request requires consideration by both the Design Review Board and the City Council, staff sought input from the Design Review Board during a public meeting held on February 19, 2026. During the meeting, the Design Review Board reached a consensus to recommend approval of the request to allow off-site landscaping within the public right-of-way to count toward the Project's total on-site landscaping requirement. This recommendation was made with the conditions that the approval does not establish a precedent for future projects within the City of Imperial Beach and that the existing sidewalk widths along Seacoast Drive and Date Avenue are not reduced. Approval of this request form the Applicant would satisfy the 15 percent landscaping requirement established in IBMC Section 19.50.030(A). Notwithstanding the Design Review Board’s recommendation of conditioned approval, the City Council may, at its discretion, require that all required landscaping be provided on-site and exclude landscaping located within the public right-of-way from the calculation of the minimum landscaping area required under IBMC Section 19.50.030(A).

The proposed landscaping plan (Attachment 5) includes a variety of shade trees, accent shrubs, massing shrubs, screening shrubs, and vines. The plant palette features Bay Laurel and Evergreen Chinese Elm trees; accent and shrub plantings including Agave, Narrow-leafed Bird of Paradise, Cordyline, and New Zealand Flax; massing shrubs such as Dwarf Yeddo Hawthorn, African Daisy, Green Carpet Natal Plum, and Jade Plant; and screening shrubs including Slim Bottlebrush. Vines, including Red Trumpet and Star Jasmine are also proposed. The landscaping would be distributed throughout the Project site and within the public right-of-way to enhance aesthetic appeal and support site drainage.

In addition, the Project proposes the use of pervious paving materials for exterior commercial and residential pedestrian walkways, as well as for vehicle ingress and egress areas, to promote stormwater infiltration and sustainable site design.

Parking
The minimum parking requirement for projects proposing multiple-family residential is 1.5 spaces per dwelling unit, and for projects proposing commercial uses in the C/MU-2 zone the requirement is 1 space per 1,000 gross square feet of commercial (IBMC 19.48.035). Per IBMC section

19.48.070, where computation of required off-street parking results in a fractional requirement, the requirement shall be calculated as follows: If the fraction is one-half or more, it shall be calculated as one space. In total, the Project would be required to provide 10 spaces (9 spaces for the residential component and 1 space for the commercial space). The Project proposes 14 open parking spaces, which exceeds the amount required and is compliant with the IBMC.

Design Review Board Meeting (February 19, 2026)
The Design Review Board reviewed the Project on February 19, 2026, and recommended approval of the Project’s design with a vote of 4-0 (1 recused) with recommendations, to which

Page 366 of 575 ends

P a g e | 5
the Applicant has provided responses (Attachment 6). Most of the Design Review Board's recommendations have been addressed and incorporated into the Project plans (Attachment 2) and/or included as conditions of approval in Resolution No. 2026-061 (Attachment 1).

With respect to Recommendation No. 9, which encouraged the Applicant to consider incorporating an elevator to serve the residential units, the Applicant was unable to incorporate this feature into the Project design. The Applicant made a good-faith effort to evaluate the feasibility of an elevator; however, its inclusion would reduce the area available for landscaping and compromise the Project's ability to satisfy the applicable landscaping requirements.

Regarding Recommendation No. 12, which suggested dedicating parking space No. 7 to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-accessible unit along Date Avenue, the Applicant was unable to implement this recommendation. Pursuant to California Building Code accessibility requirements, required accessible parking spaces cannot be reserved exclusively for a specific dwelling unit, as they must remain available to all qualifying users.

Lastly, Recommendation No. 15 encouraged the Applicant to consider a more vertical shade tree species, such as Sweet Shade, in place of the proposed Chinese Evergreen Elm within the public right-of-way. The Applicant was unable to incorporate this recommendation, noting that Sweet Shade trees are particularly susceptible to wind damage and generally perform best in more sheltered environments.

GENERAL PLAN/LOCAL COASTAL PLAN CONSISTENCY:

By providing a development that mixes commercial space with residential uses, as well as offering opportunities for visitor-serving commercial activities as allowed in the C/MU-2 zone, the Project meets the purpose and intent of the land use designation of the GP/LCP (Attachment 8).

SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING:

Surrounding Areas Surrounding Zoning Surrounding Land
Use
North C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed-Use) Mixed-Use South C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed-Use) Mixed-Use East R-2000 (Medium Density Residential) Residential
West C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed-Use) Commercial The Project should contribute favorably to the commercial activity of the mixed-use corridor and would comply with the purpose of the C/MU-2 zone. The C/MU-2 zone is intended to provide land to meet the demand for goods and services desired by both the tourist and local residential populations who use the beach area. The dominant type of commercial activity in the C/MU-2 zone is intended to be visitor-serving retail, such as specialty stores, surf shops, restaurants, and hotels and motels. Mixed-use and multiple-family residences are also permitted in the C/MU-2 zone.

COASTAL JURISDICTION:

This project is located in the Coastal Zone as defined by the California Coastal Act of 1976. The City Council public hearing will serve as the required coastal permit hearing, and the City Council will consider the findings under the California Coastal Act. Pursuant to the City of Imperial Beach Zoning Ordinance Section 19.87.050, review of the proposal will consider whether the proposed development satisfies the required findings prior to the approval and issuance of a CDP. The Project is located in the Appeal Jurisdiction of the Coastal Commission as indicated on the Local Coastal Program Post Certification and Appeal Jurisdiction Map and, as such, is appealable to the Coastal Commission under Section 30603(a) of the California Public Resources Code.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The Project was reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and determined that it qualifies for a Class 32 categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects) of the CEQA Guidelines because the Project is consistent with the General Plan/Local Coastal Plan’s (“GP/LCP”) land use designation and policies. The Project is also consistent with the zoning designation and regulations, occurs within the city limits on a project site of no more than five acres, is substantially surrounded by urban uses, and is located on a site that has no value as a habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species. Further, approval of the Project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality, and none of the conditions outlined in Section 15300.2 for exceptions to the categorical exemption exist. No further environmental review is required.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Applicant has submitted a fee of $29,339.00 to process the application for a Regular Coastal Permit, Design Review Case, Site Plan Review, Tentative Map, Grading Plan, and Outside Consultant Review.

Page 2 of 17 ends

WHEREAS, the City Council further offers the following findings in support of its decision to conditionally approve the Project:

REGULAR COASTAL PERMIT (IMPERIAL BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE § 19.87.050):

1. The proposed development conforms to the certified Local Coastal Plan including coastal land use policies.

The GP/LCP designates the site as being within the C/MU-2 zone. The purpose of the C/MU-2 zone is to provide land to meet the demand for goods and services required primarily by the tourist population, as well as local residents who use the beach area.

Mixed-use and multiple family residences are also permitted in the C/MU-2 zone and in the Seacoast Mixed Use/Residential Overlay. The Project would provide a commercial use as well as six residential units which would serve both the local and tourist populations, meeting the intent of the land use designation. The Project site is located in a non-appealable Coastal Zone and therefore complies with the land use designation of the General Plan/Local Coastal Plan.

2. For all development seaward of the nearest public highway to the shoreline, the proposed development meets standards for public access and recreation of Chapter Three of the 1976 Coastal Act and regulations promulgated thereunder.

The Project site is not located between the seaward of the first public road. It is intended that the dominant type of commercial activity in the C/MU-2 zone will be visitor-serving retail such as specialty stores, surf shops, restaurants, and hotels and motels. The development standards of the C/MU-2 zone encourage pedestrian activity through the design and location of building frontages and parking provisions in Imperial Beach Municipal Code (“IBMC”) Section 19.27.010). The Project's design and location would promote pedestrian activity, while providing 14 open parking spaces, exceeding the minimum required by the City's zoning ordinance, to support visitors and patrons of the proposed uses. Also, the Project would have no impact to existing shore processes, public access, coastal views, or scenic views because it complies with the IBMC, does not exceed the height limit, and does not build in any areas with street end or other views. As such, the proposed development meets standards for public access and recreation of Chapter Three of the 1976 Coastal Act and regulations promulgated thereunder.

3. The proposed development meets the minimum criteria set forth in the City of Imperial Beach Zoning Ordinance, the City’s Minimum Landscape Planting and Irrigation Standards, and the City’s Design Guidelines, as applicable.

The development has been designed to meet the minimum criteria set forth in the City of Imperial Beach Zoning Ordinance, City’s Minimum Landscape Planting and Irrigation Standards, and the City’s Design Guidelines as further specified within the findings of this Resolution. The Project complies with the applicable development standards as they relate to maximum permitted residential density, building height, and on-site parking.

Pursuant to IBMC Section 19.50.030, not less than fifteen percent of the total site shall be landscaped and permanently maintained. Based on the Project’s 9,550-square-foot lot size, a minimum of 1,432.5 square feet of on-site landscaping is required. The Project as designed provides a total of 1,173 square feet (12.28%) of on-site landscaping, located along the site perimeter to enhance aesthetic appeal and site drainage, as well as within a second-floor courtyard in the form of planters. In recognition of the on-site

landscaping requirement deficiency, the Applicant has proposed shade street trees and drought-tolerant landscaping within the public right-of-way along both Seacoast Drive and Date Avenue, totaling 352 square feet (2.72%) of additional landscaped area. This deviation is found to be in compliance with design regulations and does not establish a precedent for future projects within the City of Imperial Beach and that the existing sidewalk widths along Seacoast Drive and Date Avenue are not to be reduced.

4. The proposed development meets minimum criteria set forth in Sections

19.81.060, 19.82.050., 19.83.120., 19.84.050., and 19.86.100., of IBMC Title 19 for site plans, conditional use permits, design review, variances, zoning classification and rezonings.

The development meets the minimum criteria set forth in Sections 19.81.060, and

19.83.120, (Sections 19.82.050, 19.84.050, and 19.86.100 are not applicable) for a Site Plan Review and Design Review Case subject to the findings provided within this Resolution. Sections 19.82.050, 19.84.050, and 19.86.100 are not applicable because the Project does not require a conditional use permit, variance, or a zoning classification/rezoning.

5. For all development involving the construction of a shoreline protective device, a mitigation fee shall be collected which shall be used for each sand replenishment purposes. The mitigation fee shall be deposited in an interest-bearing account designated by the Executive Director of the California Coastal Commission and the city manager of Imperial Beach in lieu of providing sand to replace the sand a beach area that would be lost due to the impacts of any proposed protective structure.

The subject site is not located near an area that would require shoreline protection. As such, the Project does not necessitate the construction of a shoreline protection device and would not have an impact on the sand in any beach area. Therefore, a mitigation fee is not required for the Project.

DESIGN REVIEW/SITE PLAN REVIEW (IBMC § 19.81.060):

8. The proposed use does not have any detrimental effect upon the general health, safety and convenience of persons residing or working in the neighborhood, or is not detrimental or injurious to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood.

The Project will not have a detrimental effect on the general health, welfare, safety and convenience of persons residing or working in the neighborhood because it is consistent

Page 371 of 575 ends

Resolution No. 2026-076

Page 4 of 17 ends

with the intent of the development standards and zoning designations. The development would not be injurious to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood because the Project represents an improvement of the existing conditions and the Project could improve property values and stimulate growth in the area. Specific conditions have been set forth by the Community Development Department, Public Works Department, Building Department, Public Safety Department, and Engineering Department (Michael Baker International) to mitigate public safety and welfare concerns such a development project may raise in the Conditions of Approval.

9. The proposed use does not adversely affect the GP/LCP.

The proposed mixed-use Project does not adversely affect the GP/LCP because it would provide commercial and residential uses in an area allowing for the construction of mixed-use buildings. The use is similar to other uses in the vicinity, and it will provide additional housing in the community. Therefore, the Project meets the purpose and intent of the GP/LCP.

10. The proposed use is compatible with other existing and proposed uses in the neighborhood.

The areas to the north, south, and west of the site are also located in the C/MU-2 zone and include 801 Seacoast Drive (mixed-use building) and multifamily residences. The area to the east of the Project site is an existing residential use. The multi-family building to the east is zoned R-2000 (Medium Density Residential). The location and orientation of the buildings would be consistent with the surrounding area, which is comprised of commercial and mixed-use structures and uses along Seacoast Drive and residential uses to the east. The alley adjacent to the northern property line would be used for vehicle ingress and egress. The proposed mixed-use Project is compatible with other uses in the neighborhood because it proposes both residential and commercial uses.

11. The location, site layout and design of the proposed use orients the proposed structures to streets, driveways, sunlight, wind and other adjacent structures and uses in a harmonious manner.

One of the mixed-use building’s residential units would have a ground-floor entrance at the southeastern corner of the site, fronting Date Avenue. Vehicular ingress and egress would be provided from the alley along the northern property line. The Project is compatible with the surrounding development pattern, which consists of a mix of residential and commercial uses, and would contribute a similar mix of uses that is consistent with the character of the neighborhood.

12. The combination and relationship of one proposed use to another on the site is properly integrated.

The Project proposes a residential and commercial uses that are properly integrated.

The cohesive design style and the choice of building materials properly integrate the buildings.

13. Access to and parking for the proposed use does not create any undue traffic problem.

Vehicular ingress and egress would be provided via the alley adjacent to the northern property line. The Project design would maintain existing on street parking along Seacoast Drive and Date Avenue and remove the recessed curbs on Date Avenue to be consistent with San Diego County Regional Standards. In addition, the Project provides 14 covered parking spaces, including Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”)-accessible

Page 372 of 575 ends

Resolution No. 2026-076

Page 5 of 17 ends

parking spaces serving both the commercial and residential components. Accordingly, the proposed access, circulation, and parking configuration would not create undue traffic or parking impacts, as the Project complies with the off-street parking requirements of IBMC Section 19.48.

14. All other applicable provisions of the Zoning Code are complied with.

The Project complies with all other criteria set forth in the City of Imperial Beach Zoning ordinance.

15. Any other considerations as the Community Development Department deem necessary to preserve the health, safety and convenience of the City in general.

Standard and applicable conditions of approval have been included with the Resolution to further ensure that the health, safety, welfare, and convenience of the City in general is preserved.

16. Public Notice requirements, pursuant to Zoning Ordinance Section 19.81.050, have been satisfied.

The Project description and the date of the City Council public hearing were sent to property owners within 300 feet and occupants within 100 feet of the subject site on July 23, 2026, and a public hearing notice was published in the South County Eagle & Times newspaper on July 23, 2026.

TENTATIVE MAP FINDINGS (IBMC § 18.12.070):

17. The proposed tentative tract map is consistent with the GP/LCP.

The GP/LCP designates the site as C/MU-2 zone and the proposed tentative tract map is consistent with the GP/LCP because it complies with the land use designations and zoning ordinance.

18. The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the GP/LCP.

The GP/LCP identifies commercial buildings, detached and attached mixed-use developments, multiple-family dwellings, and businesses as being consistent with the land use designation and zone. Therefore, the proposed construction of a new mixeduse project meets the purpose and intent of the land use designation of the GP/LCP.

19. The site is physically suitable for the type of development.

The subject site is physically suitable for the mixed-use development because it is relatively flat and the proposed grading and drainage for the development of the Project has been reviewed so that no adverse impacts would occur.

Ryan Pua
Planning Department
City of Imperial Beach
Dear Ryan,
After our internal meeting with our team and ownership we will make the following considerations.

Please see the DRB recommendations with our answers in red below:

1. Consider incorporating a dark bronze anodized aluminum storefront to create contrast with the lightcolored building design.

Applicant agrees. We will be using a bronze style salt water resistant storefront product.

2. For upper portions of the building and the guardrail system, consider using either lower- or highercarbon stainless steel (such as 325 marine grade), or alternatively, a glass railing system.

Applicant agrees. We will be spec’ing high carbon marine steel for this system.

3. Consider highly corrosion-resistant materials for window finishes.

Applicant agrees. All windows will be Milgard Salt Water resistant or equal.

4. Consider using a 12” x 18” stone tile veneer in a staggered stack bond pattern, with varied sizes, in lieu of a standard CMU bond wall design.

Applicant agrees. See new materials board to reflect size.

5. For the overall color scheme, consider softening the proposed blue to create a more balanced contrast with the white tones.

Applicant has adjusted coloring and tone to better reflect suggestions of DRB. New coloring and tones will provide a more balanced contrast.

6. Consider using a light-colored TPO roofing system to improve heat reflectivity.

Applicant agrees, Title 24 will drive this. Either white or grey an or equal will be provided in the specifications.

7. Alternatively, consider a charcoal shingle roof with reflective properties to reduce heat gain.

Applicant agrees.

8. Consider providing a secured gate for the ground-floor parking area.

Applicant has updated plans to reflect the secured gate.

9. Consider incorporating an elevator to serve the residential units.

Applicant has made best efforts to design with elevator, however this would restrict our ability to meet landscaping requirements.

10. Consider installing wired EV charging stations for each dwelling unit within the ground-floor parking area.

Attachment 6 Page 410 of 575
Applicant agrees and has provided a 50-amp outlet every two spaces dedicated to each unit.

11. Consider revising or reorienting the shared wheel stops in the ground-floor parking area, as the current configuration may create a tripping hazard.

Applicant agrees and has made these changes to the plans.

12. Consider dedicating parking space #7 to the ADA unit along Date Avenue.

As a requirement to provide ADA parking for the project, the applicant cannot specifically dedicate a (required) space to a specific unit. One space if for commercial and the other is for the general residential portion of the project.

13. Consider reducing the overall use of blue—particularly at the columns along Seacoast Drive—and instead extending the stone tile to create greater cohesion and reduce contrast with the white finishes.

Reevaluate the material or paint used at the main commercial corner feature and consider incorporating stone tile in lieu of painted surfaces.

Applicant has made overall adjustments to the color scheme including the main commercial corner.

Applicant will not be using stone as an alternate substrate. Applicant will continue to additional finish details.

14. Consider introducing an alternative color for the horizontal siding at the southwest corner to break up the expanse of white.

Applicant agrees. Alternate color has been provided as reflected in the plans and associated color board.

15. In lieu of the Chinese evergreen elm within the public right-of-way, consider proposing a more vertical shade tree species such as Sweet Shade.

Applicant does not agree. Sweet Shade is notoriously susceptible to wind damage and prefers sheltered locations.

16. Consider relocating the shade tree in front of Unit 101 to the southeast corner of the property to enhance screening.

Applicant agrees.

17. For the second-floor landscaping, consider providing permanent planters with integrated irrigation.

Applicant does not agree. Our ownership feels this may open us up to litigation due to overwatering concerns possibly creating water damage from automated irrigation.

18. Consider adding a fourth street tree along Seacoast Drive.

The applicant shall coordinate with the Community Development Department and Public Works to evaluate the feasibility of installing a fourth street tree along Seacoast Drive during building permit review.

Best regards,
Steve Alford

Bob Pratte expressed concerns regarding the project's orientation toward Seacoast Drive rather than Date Avenue, stating that the design was inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood and would create a large wall-facing streetscape. He suggested greater pedestrian orientation and neighborhood integration, raised concerns about potential impacts to ocean views, alley safety, parking availability, and the potential use of units as short-term rentals. He also encouraged design features that would foster interaction between future residents and the surrounding community.

Associate Planner Pua responded that the proposed setback complies with the applicable zoning requirements, explained that the property is located within a different zoning district than the adjacent residential properties, resulting in different setback standards, and noted that the proposed five-foot setback exceeds the minimum setback permitted by the zone.

In response to a question from Member Voronchihin, Steve Alford of Far West Industries, representing the Lassoy Family, provided a history of the property.

Member Voronchihin asked questions regarding the project's landscape calculations, proposed landscaping within the public right-of-way, irrigation, tree species, storefront finishes, roofing, and building materials. His recommendations included:
• Use a darker storefront finish (dark bronze / aluminum anodized) to provide contrast and durability, rather than a lighter storefront system. • Consider marine-grade or corrosion-resistant materials for exterior metal elements, particularly guardrails, due to the coastal environment. • Where feasible, use glass guardrails instead of metal systems to improve durability and aesthetics.
• For stone/tile veneer, consider a stack bond or varied pattern (rather than running bond) and adjust module sizing (e.g., 12x12 or 12x18) to improve visual interest.
• Soften or reduce the intensity of the blue-and-white exterior color contrast, noting it may be too visually jarring in its current form. • Use lighter-colored roofing materials, including the charcoal shingle and TPO roofing, to improve heat reflectivity and reduce heat absorption.

4 • Ensure rooftop and minor shingle roof areas use lighter tones even if not visible from street level to improve overall thermal performance.

Member Keating provided comments and questions regarding the project’s design and public improvements. He expressed support for the overall building design, articulation, and architectural features. He emphasized the importance of providing two parking spaces per residential unit and discussed the feasibility of meeting onsite landscaping requirements versus using public right-of-way landscaping, questioning whether minor design adjustments could achieve compliance. He also requested clarification on sidewalk widths and right-of-way dimensions along Date Avenue and Seacoast Drive, expressing concern about maintaining adequate pedestrian clearance, particularly ensuring consistency with adjacent sidewalk widths and sufficient net walking space around tree wells and other obstructions.

He asked staff to confirm minimum sidewalk standards and whether proposed improvements would maintain or improve existing conditions. He continued his comments by expressing concern about maintaining adequate pedestrian sidewalk width and requested confirmation that net sidewalk clearances would remain sufficient for safe passage. He requested that the alley gate be made a required improvement rather than optional, which the applicant confirmed. He raised questions regarding parking allocation, ADA accessibility, and the absence of an elevator, and suggested consideration of adding one for improved accessibility and usability. He also noted the lack of designated guest parking and sought clarification on parking management. He recommended enhanced EV infrastructure beyond minimum code requirements, including future-ready wiring or conduit for potential additional charging stations. He also requested clarification on solar panel metering and allocation, noting it would be addressed during construction documents. He reviewed the parking structure layout and recommended ensuring adequate clearance near structural walls and shear elements consistent with standard code requirements.

Member Beltran expressed support for the project and was pleased to see development of the site and that the design generally responds well to pedestrian orientation and setbacks. He recommended revising the building’s exterior color palette, suggesting a reduction in the amount of blue and overall contrast, and considering the use of stone tile in place of painted blue elements at the main corner feature to create a more cohesive appearance. He also suggested breaking up the white horizontal siding at the corner with alternative materials to reduce visual starkness. Regarding landscaping, he supported the use of planting along Date Avenue to create a “front yard” character and recommended considering alternative tree species with a more vertical growth habit, such as Sweetshade (Hymenosporum flavum), subject to City approval. He also suggested slight adjustment of the corner tree placement to improve screening at Unit 101. He noted that the proposed pervious paving system appeared appropriate and concluded by recommending approval of the project with the stated design and landscaping refinements.

5 Chair Bradley expressed support for some aspects of the project but raised concerns regarding accessibility, solar design assumptions, and compliance with the 15% landscaping requirement. He questioned the use of second-floor planters and indicated he was not comfortable counting them toward required landscaping unless they are permanent with irrigation and drainage. He stated he was not inclined to support including right-of-way landscaping in lieu of on-site landscaping and emphasized concern about establishing precedent for reduced on-site landscaping. He recommended that the full 15% landscaping requirement be provided on site. He also discussed potential alternatives for meeting the requirement, noting that reducing parking did not appear feasible given the project design and required parking configuration. He concluded by reiterating that, while he understood staff and applicant constraints, his recommendation was to require full on-site compliance with the landscaping standard.

Member Keating continued his comments by requesting additional clarification on pedestrian circulation along Seacoast Drive, specifically asking for clear dimensions of the net sidewalk width between proposed elements such as tree wells, building features, and landscape areas. He noted concern that portions of the sidewalk shown in renderings may not be fully walkable and emphasized the need to confirm that minimum pedestrian clearances are maintained. He also requested that the design include adequate ADA-compliant access, including confirmation of required clear sidewalk widths around curb ramps and truncated domes, and stressed the importance of ensuring a continuous accessible path of travel. He further suggested adding additional street trees along Seacoast Drive to enhance the streetscape and requested that these dimensional and accessibility details be clearly defined during the construction document phase to ensure compliance and avoid reducing usable sidewalk or landscaped areas.

Discussion ensued regarding the DRB's recommendations.

Associate Planner Pua summarized the DRB's recommendations as follows:

1. Consider incorporating a dark bronze anodized aluminum storefront to create contrast with the light-colored building design.

2. For upper portions of the building and the guardrail system, consider using either lower- or higher-carbon stainless steel (such as 325 marine grade), or alternatively, a glass railing system.

3. Consider highly corrosion-resistant materials for window finishes.

4. Consider using a 12” x 18” stone tile veneer in a staggered stack bond pattern, with varied sizes, in lieu of a standard CMU bond wall design.

5. For the overall color scheme, consider softening the proposed blue to create a more balanced contrast with the white tones.

6 6. Consider using a light-colored TPO roofing system to improve heat reflectivity.

7. Alternatively, consider a charcoal shingle roof with reflective properties to reduce heat gain.

8. Consider providing a secured gate for the ground-floor parking area.

9. Consider incorporating an elevator to serve the residential units.

10. Consider installing wired EV charging stations for each dwelling unit within the ground-floor parking area.

11. Consider revising or reorienting the shared wheel stops in the ground-floor parking area, as the current configuration may create a tripping hazard.

12. Consider dedicating parking space #7 to the ADA unit along Date Avenue.

13. Consider reducing the overall use of blue—particularly at the columns along Seacoast Drive—and instead extending the stone tile to create greater cohesion and reduce contrast with the white finishes. Reevaluate the material or paint used at the main commercial corner feature and consider incorporating stone tile in lieu of painted surfaces.

14. Consider introducing an alternative color for the horizontal siding at the southwest corner to break up the expanse of white.

15. In lieu of the Chinese evergreen elm within the public right-of-way, consider proposing a more vertical shade tree species such as Sweet Shade.

16. Consider relocating the shade tree in front of Unit 101 to the southeast corner of the property to enhance screening.

17. For the second-floor landscaping, consider providing permanent planters with integrated irrigation.

18. Consider adding a fourth street tree along Seacoast Drive.

A. On property with a side or rear yard
abutting a residential zone, the
second-floor stepback shall be a
minimum of five feet from the
abutting residential property line and
the third-floor stepback shall be a
minimum of ten feet from the
abutting residential property line.

B. Stepbacks are not required where
the ten-foot setback is required or
observed for at least fifty percent of
the property line abutting residential
property.

C. On properties fronting Seacoast
Drive, an upper-story setback of five
to ten feet is required for a minimum
of fifty percent of street-facing
façades along Seacoast Drive.

A. The property abuts a residential zone
(R-2000) on the east property line. The
building provides a five foot stepback for
the second floor, and a 10-ft stepback
for the third floor on the east property
line.

B. The Project proposes stepbacks and is
compliant with the Imperial Beach
Municipal Code.

C. Along Seacoast Drive, the second and
third floors are stepped back
approximately 6 feet 10 inches to 14
feet 4 inches from the western property
line, providing articulation to more than
fifty percent of the street-facing façade
on each floor.

Minimum Lot Size
A. The minimum lot size for any new
lot created in the C/MU-2 zone shall
be three thousand square feet (for
related provisions concerning small
lots, see Chapter 19.42).

A. The Project is not proposing the
creation of a new lot. The lot currently
measures 9,550 square feet.

Frontage
A. Every new lot created in the C/MU-2
zone shall have a minimum width
along a street of thirty feet (for

Page 420 of 575 ends

ATTACHMENT 8
related provisions concerning small
lots, see Chapter 19.42).

A. The Project is not proposing the
creation of a new lot. The current width
of the lot is 95.05’.

Building Height
A. No building in the C/MU-2
(Seacoast Commercial) zone shall
exceed three stories or thirty feet in
height, whichever is less.

B. All commercial spaces on the
ground floor shall have a minimum
fifteen-foot floor-to-ceiling height;
and single-story commercial
buildings shall have a minimum
building height of twenty feet.

A. When measuring from the average of
the existing grade, the overall height of
the building, including the roof decks,
and parapets is approximately 33’ - 1
1/2”. However, parapets may extend
above the height limit (ref. IBMC
Section 19.40.020). Not including the
portions of the structure that may
extend above the height limit, the
building height from the average of the
existing grade is 29’ – 7 ½”, which
complies with the 30’ building height
limit in the C/MU-2 (Seacoast
Commercial & Mixed Use) Zone.

B. The Project proposes a floor-to-ceiling
height of 15 feet, which complies with
the required floor-to-ceiling height for
ground-floor commercial spaces in the
C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed
Use) Zone.

Separation of buildings
A. No buildings shall be located less
than five feet from nay other building
on the same lot.

A. No buildings shall be located less than
five feet from any other building on the
same lot.

Parking
A. Per Imperial Beach Municipal Code
(IBMC) Section 19.48.035, the
minimum parking requirement for
projects proposing “multiple-family
residential” would be 1.5 spaces per
dwelling unit and for projects
proposes “commercial uses” in the
C/MU-2 Zone would be 1 space per
1,000 gross square feet of
commercial.

A. In total, the Project would be required to
provide 10 spaces (9 spaces for the
residential component and 1 space for
the commercial space). The Project is
proposing 14 open parking spaces,
which exceeds the amount required and
is compliant with Imperial Beach
Municipal Code (IBMC).

Landscaping requirements are as follows
(Section 19.50.030, Commercial
Landscaping):

Page 421 of 575 ends

ATTACHMENT 8
A. Not less than fifteen percent of the
total site shall be landscaped and
permanently maintained.

A. Based on the Project’s 9,550-squarefoot lot size, a minimum of 1,432.5 square feet of on-site landscaping is
required. The Project provides a total of
1,173 square feet (12.28%) of on-site
landscaping, located along the site
perimeter to enhance aesthetic appeal
and site drainage, as well as within a
second-floor courtyard in the form of
planters. In addition, the Applicant
proposes shade street trees and
drought-tolerant landscaping within the
public right-of-way along both Seacoast
Drive and Date Avenue, totaling 352
square feet (2.72%) of additional
landscaped area. However, the
Applicant respectfully requested that the
landscaped areas within the public rightof-way be credited toward the Project’s total landscape calculations. Because
this request requires consideration by
both the Design Review Board and the
City Council, staff sought input from the
Design Review Board during a public
meeting held on February 19, 2026.

During the meeting, the Design Review
Board reached a consensus to
recommend approval of the request to
allow off-site landscaping within the
public right-of-way to count toward the
Project's total on-site landscaping
requirement. This recommendation was
made with the conditions that the
approval does not establish a precedent
for future projects within the City of
Imperial Beach and that the existing
sidewalk widths along Seacoast Drive
and Date Avenue is not reduced. With
this recommendation, the Project would
satisfy the 15 percent landscaping
requirement established in IBMC
Section 19.50.030(A). Notwithstanding
this recommendation, the City Council
may, at its discretion, require that all
required landscaping be provided onsite and exclude landscaping located within the public right-of-way from the
calculation of the minimum landscaping
area required under IBMC Section

19.50.030(A).

Page 422 of 575 ends

ATTACHMENT 8
B. There shall be a five-foot-wide
landscape area between any
parking area and any public street
right-of-way.

C. A portion of a property not used for
buildings, parking, walkways,
loading or storage areas shall be
landscaped.

D. There shall be a minimum three-foot
by fifteen-foot, or forty-five square
foot, landscaped area within the
parking area (not including
perimeter area landscaping) for
every three parking spaces or the
equivalent. A minimum width of
three feet is required. A four-foot by
fifteen-foot area may be permitted
for every four spaces, five-foot-wide
for five spaces, etc.

E. Prior to issuance of any building
permits, a complete landscaping
plan shall be submitted to the
Community Development
Department for approval. Such
approval shall be subject to appeal
in the manner set forth in Sections

19.84.070 through 19.84.090.

F. Landscaping and required watering
system shall be installed prior to the
use of the premises. All landscaping
material in required landscaping
areas shall be permanently
maintained in a growing and healthy
condition, including trimming, as
appropriate to the landscaping
material.

G. A permanent irrigation system shall
be installed to serve all landscaped
areas.

B. There is no parking area near the public
right-of-way.

C. Portions of a property not used for
buildings, parking, walkways, loading or
storage are landscaped.

D. The Project does not propose
landscaped areas within the parking
area due to site constraints and the
proposed development configuration.

The parking area is located beneath the
second floor, where adequate sunlight
is not available to support viable
landscaping.

E. A complete landscape plan would be
required prior to issuance of building
permits.

F. Landscaping and required watering
system shall be installed prior to the use
of the premises subject to state
requirements.

G. A permanent irrigation system shall be
installed to serve all landscaped areas
subject to state requirements.

ITEM TITLE: T-MOBILE SEEKS APPROVAL OF THE CONTINUED OPERATION OF AN EXISTING, PREVIOUSLY APPROVED, WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS FACILITY AT 800 SEACOAST DRIVE AND CEQA EXEMPTION PURSUANT TO SECTION 15301. (0600-20) ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT:

Community Development
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

T-Mobile (“Applicant”) has initiated the process to obtain a Conditional Use Permit (“CUP”) renewal for the continued operation of an existing previously approved wireless communications facility at 800 Seacoast Drive (“Project”). The facility was originally approved by the City Council on June 3, 2015 through Resolution No. 2015-7591; however, the previous CUP expired on January 16, 2025, requiring new authorization for continued operation pursuant to Imperial Beach Municipal Code (“IBMC”) Chapter 19.90 (Wireless Communications Facilities). The property is zoned C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed Use).

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 2026-074, approving Regular Coastal Permit (CP-25- 0006), Conditional Use Permit (CUP-25-0004), Design Review Case (DRC-25-0005), and Site Plan Review (SPR-25-0005) at 800 Seacoast Drive (APN: 625-262-02-00) in the C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed Use) zone subject to conditions as specified in the resolution.

OPTIONS:

In addition to reviewing this report and adopting staff recommendations, the City Council can:
 Approve the Project with modifications requested by the City Council; or  Deny the Project and the requested permits by making specific findings for denial; or  Continue the public hearing to a specific future meeting to allow staff to provide additional information upon which a decision can be rendered.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

The existing wireless communications facility was originally approved by the City Council in 2015 through Resolution 2015-7591. The previous CUP has since expired, and pursuant to IBMC Chapter 19.90 (Wireless Communications Facilities), new authorization is required to allow the continued operation of the facility. A new application (USE-25-0036) was submitted to the City on August 25, 2025, requesting approval of a Regular Coastal Permit (CP-25-0006), Conditional Use Permit (CUP-25-0005), Design Review Case (DRC-25-0005), and Site Plan Review (SPR-25- 0005). The application is limited to the continued operation of the existing wireless communications facility, with no proposed physical modifications or expansions.

Design, Height, and Location
The design, height, and
location of the existing
wireless communications
facility would remain
unchanged. The facility
consists of nine (9)
antennas concealed
behind a Fiber-Reinforced
Polymer (FRP) enclosure
and parapet wall designed
to match the existing
building in color, materials,
and architectural character.

The antennas are mounted
on the exterior of the
building along the north
and east façades, with the
facility ranging in height
from 48 feet to 51 feet,
consistent with the
previously approved installation. The associated equipment is located on the easternmost portion of the rooftop and is screened by an existing partition wall. As no physical modifications to the facility are proposed, the existing design would continue to minimize visual impacts, preserve the architectural character of the building, and maintain compatibility with the surrounding development.

GENERAL PLAN/LOCAL COASTAL PLAN CONSISTENCY:

The Project is consistent with the City of Imperial Beach General Plan/Local Coastal Program (“GP/LCP”) because it involves the continued operation of an existing wireless communications facility with no proposed expansion or physical modifications. The facility remains architecturally integrated into the existing hotel and does not alter the approved building mass, height, or site layout. The Project maintains the existing commercial land use and neighborhood character while allowing the continued provision of wireless communications services. The continued operation of the facility is also consistent with the City's implementation of the GP/LCP through the Zoning Ordinance, which permits wireless communication facilities in residential zones subject to approval of a CUP (Attachment 3).

SURROUND LAND USE ZONING:

Surrounding Areas Surrounding Zoning Surrounding Land
Use
North C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed Use)
& PF (Public Facility)
Public Park
South C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed Use) Mixed-Use East C/MU-2 (Seacoast Commercial & Mixed Use) Mixed-Use West PF (Public Facility) Public Beach
The Project should contribute positively to the commercial and mixed-use corridor because it provides critical communications capabilities for residents, visitors, and first-responders as well

as being architecturally integrated into an existing hotel. The previous CUP has since expired, and this application is required to authorize the continued operation of the existing facility. No physical modifications, expansions, or changes to the approved design are proposed.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:

The Project was reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and determined that it qualifies for a Class 1 categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines. No further environmental review is required.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Applicant has submitted a fee of $23,228.00 to process the application for the Regular Coastal Permit, Conditional Use Permit, Design Review Case, and Site Plan Review.

2. For all development seaward of the nearest public highway to the shoreline, the proposed development meets standards for public access and recreation of Chapter Three of the 1976 Coastal Act and regulations promulgated thereunder.

The Project site is located between the sea and the first public road within the C/MU-2 zone, where visitor-serving commercial uses are intended to predominate. The facility will continue to have no adverse impact on shoreline processes, public access, coastal or scenic views, or other coastal resources, as it complies with applicable provisions of the IBMC, remains within the permitted height limits, and does not obstruct street-end or other public views. Accordingly, the Project is consistent with the public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act and the City's certified Local Coastal Program.

3. The proposed development meets the minimum criteria set forth in the City of Imperial Beach Zoning Ordinance, the City’s Minimum Landscape Planting and Irrigation Standards, and the City’s Design Guidelines, as applicable.

The development has been designed to meet the minimum criteria set forth in the City of Imperial Beach Zoning Ordinance, City’s Minimum Landscape Planting and Irrigation Standards, and the City’s Design Guidelines.

4. The proposed development meets minimum criteria set forth in IBMC Sections

19.81.060, 19.82.050., 19.83.120., 19.84.050., and 19.86.100. for site plans, conditional use permits, design review, variances, zoning classification and rezonings.

The development meets the minimum criteria set forth in IBMC Sections 19.81.060 (Site Plan Review), 19.82.050 (Conditional Use Permit), and 19.83.120 (Design Review) and is subject to the findings provided within this Resolution. IBMC Sections 19.84.050 and

19.86.100 are not applicable because the Project does not require a variance, or a zoning classification/rezoning.

5. For all development involving the construction of a shoreline protective device, a mitigation fee shall be collected which shall be used for each sand replenishment purposes. The mitigation fee shall be deposited in an interest-bearing account designated by the Executive Director of the California Coastal Commission and the city manager of Imperial Beach in lieu of providing sand to replace the sand a beach area that would be lost due to the impacts of any proposed protective structure.

The Project does not involve the construction of a shoreline protective device. The application is limited to the continued operation of the existing wireless communications facility, with no proposed physical modifications or expansions. As such, the Project does not necessitate the construction of a shoreline protection device and would not have an impact on the sand in any beach area. Therefore, a mitigation fee is not required for the Project.

6. This Project complies with the CEQA.

This Project is categorically exempted from the requirements of CEQA as a Class 1 Project pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities). The City has prepared a Categorical Exemption per the CEQA requirements for this Project and the Notice of Exemption will be filed with the County Clerk in compliance with CEQA.

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FINDINGS (IBMC SECTION 19.82.040):

8. That the proposed use at the particular location is necessary or desirable to provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well-being of the neighborhood or community.

The wireless communication facility would continue to provide communication services to the City of Imperial Beach commercial and residential development, avoiding gaps in wireless communications coverage and therefore contribute to the general well-being of the neighborhood or community. The Project is subject to IBMC Chapter 19.90 (Wireless Communications Facilities), which establishes the standards for siting, developing and maintaining wireless communications facilities and antennas throughout the City.

9. That such use will not, under the circumstances of the particular use, be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity.

As conditioned, the Project would continue to comply with the requirements of IBMC Chapter 19.90 (Wireless Communications Facilities), which establishes standards to protect the public health, safety, and welfare, as well as the aesthetic quality of the community consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the General Plan.

Accordingly, the Project would not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, nor would it be injurious to nearby property or improvements.

10. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in this title for such use and for other permitted uses in the same zone.

The Project would continue to comply with the applicable regulations and development standards for wireless communications facilities set forth in IBMC Chapter 19.90 (Wireless Communications Facilities), as well as all applicable conditions of approval.

The Project consists of the continued operation of an existing, previously approved wireless communications facility, and no physical modifications are proposed that would result in noncompliance with the applicable regulations.

11. That the granting of such conditional use will be in harmony with the purpose and intent of this code, the adopted general plan and the adopted local coastal program.

The granting of this permit would be in harmony with the purpose and intent of the IBMC, the General Plan, and the certified Local Coastal Program. The Project consists solely of the continued operation of an existing, previously approved wireless communications facility and does not include any physical modifications. The facility remains architecturally integrated into the existing hotel and would continue to comply with the applicable requirements of IBMC Chapter 19.90 (Wireless Communications Facilities).

DESIGN REVIEW/SITE PLAN REVIEW (IBMC SECTION 19.81.060):

12. The proposed use does not have any detrimental effect upon the general health, safety and convenience of persons residing or working in the neighborhood, or is not detrimental or injurious to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood.

The Project consists solely of the continued operation of an existing, previously approved wireless communications facility and does not include any physical modifications. The design, location, and height of the facility would remain unchanged, and the facility would continue to comply with the applicable requirements of Chapter

19.90 (Wireless Communications Facilities) of the IBMC and the conditions of approval.

Accordingly, the Project would not be detrimental to the health, welfare, safety, or convenience of persons residing or working in the neighborhood, nor would it be detrimental or injurious to the value of nearby properties or improvements.

13. The proposed use does not adversely affect the General Plan/Local Coastal Program (“GP/LCP”).

The Project maintains the existing commercial land use and neighborhood character while allowing the continued provision of wireless communications services. Because no changes to the previously approved facility are proposed, the Project does not create additional visual impacts or alter the surrounding development pattern. The Project is also consistent with the implementation of the GP/LCP through the Zoning Ordinance, which permits wireless communications facilities in residential zones subject to approval of a CUP.

14. The proposed use is compatible with other existing and proposed uses in the neighborhood.

The existing wireless communication facility is permitted within the underlying zoning district. The facility is integrated into the existing structure, allowing it to provide the necessary wireless service while preserving the mixed-use character of the surrounding neighborhood.

15. The location, site layout and design of the proposed use orients the proposed structures to streets, driveways, sunlight, wind and other adjacent structures and uses in a harmonious manner.

The Project does not propose any changes to the existing location, site layout, or design of the wireless communications facility. The nine (9) antennas would be concealed behind a FRP enclosure and parapet wall designed to match the existing building in color, materials, and architectural character. The antennas are mounted on the exterior of the building along the north and east façades, consistent with the previously approved installation. The associated equipment is located on the easternmost portion of the rooftop and is screened by an existing partition wall. Because no changes are proposed, the facility would continue to minimize visual impacts, preserve the architectural character of the building, and maintain harmony with surrounding structures and uses.

16. The combination and relationship of one proposed use to another on the site is properly integrated.

The Project is integrated into the existing hotel through a concealed enclosure (FRP), parapet wall, and screen rooftop equipment. The associated equipment is located on the easternmost portion of the rooftop and does not interfere with the commercial use of the

Page 5 of 8 ends

property or other on-site improvements. The continued operation of the facility would maintain the existing relationship between uses on the site.

17. Access to and parking for the proposed use does not create any undue traffic problem.

The Project consists solely of the continued operation of an existing wireless communications facility and does not propose any physical modifications or changes to site access. The facility does not generate regular vehicle trips or increase parking demand, and no changes to the existing circulation or parking layout are proposed.

Accordingly, the Project would not create any undue traffic or parking impacts.

18. All other applicable provisions of the Zoning Code are complied with.

The Project complies with the applicable provisions of the IBMC. The continued operation of the existing facility remains consistent with the implementation of the GP/LCP through the Zoning Ordinance, which permits wireless communications facilities in residential zones subject to approval of a CUP. Because no modifications to the existing facility are proposed, the Project would continue to comply with the applicable development standards and conditions of approval.

19. Any other considerations as the Community Development Department deem necessary to preserve the health, safety and convenience of the City in general.

The Project authorizes the continued operation of an existing, previously approved wireless communications facility that provides telecommunications service to the surrounding area. The facility remains architecturally integrated into the existing hotel, with no proposed changes to its design, location, height, or operation. Because the Project does not expand or modify the approved facility, it maintains the existing neighborhood character, avoids additional visual impacts, and remains consistent with the City's GP/LCP and IBMC. Accordingly, the Project would continue to protect the public health, safety, welfare, and convenience while supporting reliable wireless communications service.

20. Public Notice requirements, pursuant to IBMC Section 19.81.050, have been satisfied.

The Project description and the date of the City Council public hearing were sent to property owners within 300 feet and occupants within 100 feet of the subject site on July 23, 2026, and a public hearing notice was published in the South County Eagle & Times newspaper on July 23, 2026.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Imperial Beach that the above-listed findings and recitals are true and correct and are incorporated by reference; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Imperial Beach that Regular Coastal Permit (CP-25-0006), Conditional Use Permit (CUP-25-0004), Design Review Case (DRC-25-0005), and Site Plan Review (SPR-25-0005) for the Project are hereby approved subject to the following:
