Carlo Tomaino, Assistant Cit~r
Report from the Library Task Force on Recommendations to Expand the La Mesa Branch of the San Diego County Library
BACKGROUND:

At the July 27, 2021 meeting, Vice Mayor Shu introduced a City Council-initiated item to consider forming a Library Task Force for the purpose of reviewing options and recommending a method to expand the La Mesa Branch of the San Diego County Library. At the meeting, City Council directed staff to create a Task Force to research options for expanding the La Mesa branch of the San Diego County Library commensurate to the community's size and needs and recommend a course of action to the City Council.

DISCUSSION:

The Task Force began meeting on November 18, 2021. The Task Force consisted of three at-large members and a member from the San Diego County Library, Friends of the La Mesa Library, a Faith/non-profit organization, and the education community. In its ensuing meetings, the Task Force received a presentation regarding the San Diego County Library's efforts, including needs analysis criteria and operational considerations based on current standards. Using this information, the Task Force discussed and drafted recommendations. The Task Force concluded its last meeting on February 17, 2022, by adopting formal recommendations for the City Council to consider. Staff has attached the recommendations to this report for reference.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that City Council accept and file the report from the Library Task Force on recommendations to expand the La Mesa Branch of the San Diego County Library.

Attachment A - Library Task Force Recommendations
City Council Direction: Research options for expanding the La Mesa Branch of the San Diego County Library commensurate to the community's size and needs and recommend a course of action to the City Council.

Library Task Force Recommendations:

1. Retain a qualified consultant to prepare a Library Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study as a course of action to evaluate the existing library facility, operations, growth potential, and funding options to expand the La Mesa Branch of the San Diego County Library in a four to five year timeframe. The Library Task Force recommends the Facility Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study include the following components:

A. Evaluate overall capacity for children and teen programs, community programs, and space needs for public meetings, computer/printer usage, staff work, quiet study/reading area, and outdoor events.

B. Conduct community engagement that includes various segments of the La Mesa population including children, teens, and non-English speaking residents.

C. Utilize the Needs Assessment completed by the County of San Diego Library in 2020 as a resource and consult with the County of San Diego La Mesa Library to assess facility needs.

2. The Library Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study process would provide additional information regarding the optimum facility size to accommodate current and future growth of library programs and operations and estimate the potential development of two possible scenarios:

A. Expanding the current library by constructing a second-floor mezzanine and/or exploring options to expand into a portion of the existing post office space. Developing potential alternative configurations to the library floor plan to provide additional space for programs and services including the potential use of outdoor space.

B. In partnership with the County of San Diego, exploring the option of constructing a new library facility on the site identified in the 2016 Civic Center Feasibility Study or an offsite location either as a public project or a public-private partnership.

Feasibility Study Elements:
• Identifying potential sources of funding including public financing, corporate and philanthropic grants, and public/private partnerships as well as discussing funding constraints and impediments.
• Developing a financial feasibility analysis based on the two potential development scenarios.

3. Utilizing the results of the Library Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study, the City Council would have the option to allocate funding for a potential future capital project and direct staff to retain a qualified architect and construction contractor to develop the preferred option.

Library Task Force Recommendation
Retain a qualified consultant to:
❑ Prepare a Library Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study as a course of action to evaluate the existing library facility, operations, and growth potential.
❑ Examine funding options available to expand the La Mesa Branch of the San Diego County Library.
❑ Utilize a four to five year timeframe for the feasibility analysis. 4 Page 13 of 250
Library Facility Needs Assessment and
Feasibility Study
Evaluate overall capacity for children and teen programs, community programs, and space needs for public meetings, computer/printer usage, staff work, quiet study/reading area, and outdoor events.

Conduct community engagement that includes various segments of the La Mesa population including children, teens, and non-English speaking residents.

Utilize the data and ideas from the prior Needs Assessment undertaken by the County of San Diego Library in 2020.

Consult with the current County of San Diego La Mesa Library staff to assess facility needs for expanded library services and community programming. 5 Page 14 of 250 Library Facility Needs Assessment and
Feasibility Study
Goal: To provide information regarding the optimum facility size that will accommodate current and future growth of library operations, and analyze the feasibility of two potential development scenarios.

1. Expanding the current library- constructing a second-floor mezzanine and/or exploring options to expand into a portion of the existing post office space. • Developing potential alternative configurations to the library floor plan to provide additional space for programs and services.
• Include the potential use of dedicated outdoor space.

2. Constructing a new library facility- in partnership with the County of San Diego, exploring the option of constructing a new library facility • on the site identified in the 2016 Civic Center Feasibility Study, or • an offsite location either as a public project or a public-private partnership. 6 Page 15 of 250 Library Facility Needs Assessment and
Feasibility Study
Feasibility Study Elements

1. Develop a financial feasibility analysis based on the two potential development scenarios.

2. Identify potential sources of funding, including
• public financing
• corporate and philanthropic grants

Library Facility Needs Assessment and
Feasibility Study
Utilizing the results of the Library Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study, the City Council would have the option to:
• Identify and allocate funding for a potential future capital project. • Direct staff to retain a qualified architect and construction contractor to develop the preferred option.

Recommended next step:
• Allocate $30,000 in the Fiscal Year 2023 Budget to hire a qualified consulting firm to prepare the Library Facility Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study.

Phase 1 – 30 MGD
• Planning City of San Diego 42 MGD/53
• Design/Build ECPWF 0-11 MGD
Phase 2 – 53 MGD (maybe more)

Page 21 of 250 ends

LA MESA PERSPECTIVE

1. La Mesa is a Participating Agency in the Metropolitan Wastewater System

2. Participating Agencies agreed to fund 83 MGD of secondary treatment

3. Point Loma WTP wants to obtain Secondary Equivalency through Federal Legislation, so it would not need to be upgraded to full secondary.

4. With ECAWPF San Diego needs Phase 2 to only be 42 MGD, but may build 53. Who Pays?

5. Pure Water secondary facilities do not treat peak they are sent to Point Loma

6. Brine from Pure Water facilities will be retreated at Point Loma

SUBJECT: Adoption of Resolution Making Findings Pursuant to Government Code Section 54953, as Amended by Assembly Bill 361, and Authorizing the Continued Use of Virtual and/or Hybrid Meetings of the Legislative Bodies of the City of La Mesa for the 30-day Period Beginning April 1, 2022 Through April 30, 2022
The City Council, Board and Commission meetings will return to in-person meetings beginning April 12, 2022. On February 22, 2022, it was the consensus of the Council to permit hybrid meetings of the legislative bodies of the City of La Mesa. A city may meet remotely or use a combination of in-person/virtual (hybrid) platform under AB 361 during a declared state of emergency by the Governor via Government Code § 54953(e) et seq. The attached Resolution (Attachment A) would need to be adopted by Council to allow for hybrid meetings, in which Councilmembers and/or Board and Commission Members may choose to continue to attend meetings virtually while still allowing the public to attend in-person.

In order to allow for hybrid meetings after returning to in-person meetings On September 28, 2021, the City Council was apprised of the latest Assembly Bill No. 361 (AB 361) signed by Governor Newsom allowing legislative bodies to continue to utilize remote/virtual platforms for meetings as long as one of the following three criteria was met:
• State or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing; or
• For the purpose of determining, by majority vote, whether as a result of the state of emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees; or
• The City Council has previously determined, by majority vote, that, as a result of the state of emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.

Page 37 of 250 ends

Based on the above criteria, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-115 to allow continued remote teleconference meetings of the legislative bodies of the City of La Mesa for the month of October 2021 at its September 28, 2021 meeting. Subsequently, the City Council adopted Resolution Nos. 2021-129, 2021-153, 2022-006, 2022-018 to allow continued remote teleconference meetings of the legislative bodies of the City of La Mesa for the months of November and December 2021 and January, February, and March 2022.

To continue meeting based on the parameters set forth in AB 361, the City Council must adopt subsequent resolutions each month prior to the expiration date of the previously adopted resolutions requesting the same. The adoption of the proposed Resolution is required to allow the City's legislative bodies to hold hybrid meetings in which Councilmembers, Board Members, and Commissioners may choose to continue to participate virtually. Staff recommends adopting the attached draft resolution this evening to allow the hybrid meeting option for the month of April.

Attached for your reference is the original staff report which provides further background on AB 361 and Resolution Nos. 2021-115, 2021-129, 2021-153, and 2021-160.

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers
Date: September 28, 2021
Page2 of3
BACKGROUND:

On March 17, 2020, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20, which allowed for relaxed provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act (Brown Act) that allowed legislative bodies to conduct meetings through teleconferencing without having to meet the strict compliance of the Brown Act. All provisions of Executive Order N-29-20 concerning the conduct of public meetings will expire on September 30, 2021.

DISCUSSION:

AB 361 was signed into law by the Governor on September 16, 2021, and went into effect immediately. It amends the Brown Act to allow local legislative bodies to continue using teleconferencing and virtual meeting technology after the September 30, 2021, expiration of the current Brown Act exemptions as long as there is a "proclaimed state of emergency" by the Governor. This allowance also depends on state or local officials imposing or recommending measures that promote social distancing or a legislative body finding that meeting in person would present an imminent safety risk to attendees. Though adopted in the context of the pandemic, AB 361 will allow for virtual meetings during other proclaimed emergencies, such as earthquakes or wildfires, where physical attendance may present a risk.

AB 361 requires the following:
., public agencies to make findings by majority vote within 30 days of the first teleconferenced meeting under AB 361 and every 30 days thereafter that a state of emergency still exists and continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person, or that officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing;
e a public comment period where the public can address the legislative body directly;
e prohibits councils and boards from limiting public comments to only comments submitted in advance and specifies that the leg[sfative body "must provide an opportunity for the public to ... offer comment in real time." (Government Code 54953(e)(2)(E);
" the legislative body must allow a reasonable time for public comment during the comment periods;
., The agenda must include information on the manner in which the public may access the meeting and provide comments remotely;
., if technical problems arise that result in the public's access being disrupted, the legislative body may not take any vote or other official action until the technical

Page 3 of 3 ends

disruption Is correctecl and public access Is restored
AB 361 wlll sunset on January 1, 2024,
CONCLUSION:

In fight of AB 361, the continuing COVID-19 State of Emergency declared by the Governor, the continuing recommendations by the County of San Diego Public Health Services of social distancing as a mechanism for preventing the spread of COVID-19, and the continued threats to health and safety posed by indoor public meetings with large attendance, staff recommends the Council adopt the proposed Resolution making the findings required to lnltlally Invoke AB 361.

The procedures currently set up for City Council meetings, which provide public attendance and comment through a call-In or Internet-based service option, satisfy the requirements of AB 361. The City Cieri< will work with City Boards, Commissions, and Tasl< Forces to ensure that their meeting procedures for all meetings conducted after September 30, 2021 comply with AB 361. Continued reliance will require the Council to adopt a new resolution mal<ing required findings every 30 days.

REPORT to the MAYOR and MEMBERS of the CITY COUNCIL
From the CITY MANAGER
DATE: March 22, 2022
SUBJECT: Consideration of the 2021 Annual Report - Implementation of the General Plan
ISSUING DEPARTMENT: Community Development
SUMMARY:

Issue:

California Government Code Section 65400 requires the legislative body of all general law cities to consider an annual report on their General Plan's implementation and transmit it to the State.

Recommendation:

That the City Council accept the 2021 Annual Report - Implementation of the General Plan (Attachment A) and authorize staff to transmit it to the State Office of Planning and Research and the California Department of Housing and Community Development.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this action.

City's Strategic Goal:

Continue to improve high quality municipal services.

BACKGROUND:

California Government Code Section 65400(a)(2) requires the legislative body of all general law cities to consider an annual report on their General Plan's implementation, including progress on implementation of the individual goals within the General Plan. In addition, the document is to include information on the City's progress in meeting its fair share of regional housing needs.

This report must be submitted to the City Council and the State Office of Planning and Research and the California Department of Housing and Community Development each year.

A General Plan is intended to provide comprehensive, long-term direction by establishing locally important goals and policies. Once adopted, the City Council and Planning Commission are required to ensure that development, both private and public, is consistent with the goals and policies of the plan. Each General Plan is required to include seven specific components, or

Page 57 of 250 ends

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers

Page 2 of 3 ends

elements; the La Mesa General Plan includes the seven required elements (two required elements are combined) plus two additional elements. The City adopted its first General Plan in 1965. The most recent comprehensive update to the General Plan was approve'd and Final EIR certified by the City Council on July 9, 2013. The Housing Element of the General Plan, which is required to be updated more frequently, was included in the comprehensive update in 2013. A Housing Element update was adopted in 2021 and submitted to HCD for review.

DISCUSSION:

The attached 2021 Annual Report - Implementation of the General Plan is organized by the different Elements of the General Plan, which are as follows:
• Land Use & Urban Design Element • Noise Element
• Circulation Element • Safety Element
• Conservation & Sustainability Element • Public Services & Facilities Element • Recreation & Open Space Element • Health & Wellness Element • Historic Preservation Element • Housing Element
Highlights of the report include the following:

In accordance with COVID-19 protocols, indoor gathering spaces and activity centers remained closed to the public for the first half of 2021. The Community Services Department was able to open some facilities in accordance with County and State guidelines providing limited recreation programs including day camp (and online school) and tiny tots, in addition to outdoor recreation programs such as tennis, youth sports practices, dance and martial arts. In mid-June, facilities had reopened with some limitations for classes, events and day camps. Outdoor park usage continued in popularity. The weekly farmer's market returned to La Mesa Boulevard as businesses reopened. Outdoor dining remained popular.

Implementation of the City's adopted Climate Action Plan (CAP) continued. San Diego Community Power officially launched in 2021. In partnership with SDG&E's Power Your Drive program, four electric vehicle charging stations available for public use were installed at MacArthur Park. Organics recycling services were implemented to divert additional waste from the landfill. An Urban Forest Management Plan is being drafted for adoption in 2022 and tree planting is underway through a grant from Cal Fire.

Multiple transportation planning projects addressed goals in the Circulation and Public Services & Facilities Elements. A city-wide Fiber Optic Interconnect project to expand signal connectivity and communications into most of the major and arterial corridors to optimize traffic flow was completed in 2021. Work continued on the Complete Streets design guidelines and Complete Streets Plans for specific corridors, all of which will help integrate low-impact modes of transportation such as microtransit, micromobility, walking, and biking. City staff is working with Caltrans to improve bicycle and pedestrian access at freeway crossings. Also underway is a Local Road Safety Plan, a data-driven collision analysis that will provide specific corrective recommendations or countermeasures to reduce collisions and improve safety in response to the City's Vision Zero Policy.

Furthering goals in the Recreation and Open Space, Public Services and Facilities, and Health and Wellness Elements, improvement and planning activities were underway in the City's parks.

Design was completed and funding obtained for Phase 2 improvements to Collier Park with construction expected to begin in 2022. The La Mesa Park and Recreation Foundation Community Garden at MacArthur Park parked opened in May 2021 with over 40 garden beds.

MacArthur Park Master Planning continued in 2021. Key events included an online presentation and survey to solicit input on two proposed concepts in July and draft plan presentation in December for the future development and rehabilitation of the 22 acre park. Existing courts in La Mesita Park were striped for pickleball and new 30-foot high safety netting was installed around Kuhlken Field.

To monitor how cities are responding to an urgent statewide need for housing, the Housing Element Annual Progress Report (appended to Attachment A) tracks housing at all stages of development, from discretionary review through occupancy. In 2021, the City Council adopted a Housing Element update that includes new goals to address State housing policies and plans for the sixth cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation of 3,797 units. In 2021, 220 units of housing received entitlement, permits were issued for 141 units, and construction was completed on 187 units. Of the new housing completed, 39 units were accessory dwelling units (ADUs). In addition to furthering goals in the Housing Element, new housing development supports the goals of the Land Use and Urban Design Element.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the City Council accept the 2021 Annual Report - Implementation of the General Plan and authorize staff to transmit the report to the State Office of Planning and Research and California Department of Housing and Community Development.

Section I
Introduction and Summary
Section 65400(a)(2) of the California Government Code requires that an annual report on the General Plan be submitted to the City Council on the status of the Plan and progress on its implementation. The annual report is also submitted to the State Office of Planning and Research and the California Department of Housing and Community Development.

The information provided in this report is intended to assist the City Council in determining success in implementing policies in the General Plan. This 2021 Annual Report - Implementation of the General Plan covers the time period from January 2021 to December 2021 and addresses the goals of the individual elements of City of La Mesa General Plan listed below. The report was considered and accepted by the City Council on March 22, 2022. □ Land Use & Urban Design □ Noise
□ Circulation □ Safety
□ Conservation & Sustainability □ Public Services & Facilities □ Recreation & Open Space □ Health & Wellness
□ Historic Preservation □ Housing
Provided in this document is a brief overview of existing, on-going programs implementing the General Plan's policies. It is hoped that this information will increase the understanding of the breadth of implementation already in place and the comprehensive scope of programs in various stages of completion. A brief overall description of each of those activities is provided in this report, along with the specific projects that implement the goals and policies of each element. The report is organized by Goal, Objective, and Policy, followed by a brief explanation of recent progress made toward completion.

Section 65302 of the California Government Code mandates at least seven elements in a general plan:
1) Land Use Element
2) Circulation Element
3) Conservation Element
4) Open Space Element
5) Noise Element
6) Safety Element
7) Housing Element (updated every eight years)
The La Mesa General Plan contains all seven of the required elements listed above and also includes:
• Historic Preservation Element
• Public Services & Facilities Element
2021 General Plan Annual Report page 3

Page 62 of 250 ends

• Health & Wellness Element
• Urban Design is contained within the Land Use Element • Sustainability is combined with the Conservation Element A comprehensive update to the La Mesa General Plan, including an update to the Housing Element, was adopted by the City Council on July 9, 2013. The Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was also certified by the City Council on July 9, 2013. The Housing Element covers the time period from 2013-2020. The General Plan will guide future growth and development in the City of La Mesa for a 20-year time frame.

The 2013 General Plan update included a mitigation measure to adopt a Climate Action Plan (CAP). The mitigation measure specifically required the City to develop and implement a plan for reducing greenhouse gas emissions to conform to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15183.5 and established a target to reduce emissions by 15% compared to baseline levels by the year 2020. The City's CAP, which was adopted in 2018, provides a 2035 target, based on the State's reduction goals of 40% of 1990 levels by 2030 and 80% by 2050, consistent with the City's General Plan horizon year. The City is making progress towards meeting the targets. Community-wide GHG emissions have decreased 9.2% between 2010 and 2016.

An update to the Housing Element is underway. The Housing Element update incorporates new goals to address State housing policies and plans for the sixth cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation of 3,797 units. In 2021, the City Council adopted the Housing Element and the document was submitted to HCD for review.

Section II
Land Use and Urban Design Element
The Land Use and Urban Design Element serves as a guide for planners, decision makers and the general public about the ultimate pattern of development for the City of La Mesa. This element's policies provide the context for short-term actions involving development, public works, and zoning decisions, as well as the long-term vision. The City's general plan goal is to preserve the past while allowing a level of growth necessary to sustain a viable community.

Goal LU-1: A safe and healthy community.

Objective LU-1.1: Enforce land use regulations to promote the quality of life in the community.

Policy LU-1.1.2: Maintain a Code Enforcement Program requiring properties to be wellmaintained with healthy landscaping, and kept free of excess debris and storage in front yard areas.
2021 General Plan Annual Report page 4 Page 63 of 250
---------------------------------
Progress: In 2021, the Community Development Department investigated 118 property maintenance-related code enforcement cases. The City's code enforcement program requires properties to be well-maintained with healthy landscaping and kept free of excess debris and storage in front yard areas.

Policy LU-1.1.5: The City will maintain its infrastructure through asset management programs and a Capital Improvement Program, such as sewer infrastructure, utilities, and drainage facilities. '
Progress: The City's five-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for Fiscal Years 2018 through 2022 includes a comprehensive list of infrastructure needs associated with wastewater, transportation, storm drainage, and parks. Input from City departments, input from the community, and strategic direction from the City Council based on available funding was considered in developing the program.

Objective LU-1.2: Preserve community identity while promoting safety for residents, employees, and visitors to La Mesa.

Policy LU-1.2.1: Ensure public and private gathering places and activity centers are designed to provide safe and comfortable environment for users.

Progress: In early 2021, the La Mesa Farmers Market 111oved from the Allison Avenue public parking lot back to La Mesa Boulevard. The increased area on La Mesa Boulevard provides a safe public gathering space conducive for social distancing, particularly as the Omicron variant began to spread late in the year. To enhance public safety during the pandemic, the City adopted temporary outdoor dining regulations to allow restaurants to expand dining areas to include outdoor spaces including adjacent walkways, sidewalks, and onsite and in street parking areas. The City continues to maintain a dedicated webpage on the City's website that contains COVID-19 and vaccination information and resources from the State of California and County of San Diego.

In 2021, the City completed construction of a community garden at MacArthur Park that is funded through donations to the La Mesa Park and Recreation Foundation. The community garden serves as a public gathering space where residents can grow their own vegetables and produce.

Policy LU-1.2.2: As part of the development review process, City departments will review all future development to ensure that safety requirements are met, including building and fire codes, accessibility standards and crime prevention techniques.

Progress: In 2021, the City Council established a new administrative review process for site development plan review to replace the Development Advisory Board. The new process streamlines development review while retaining the involvement of key City departments, including Building, Engineering, and Fire. All development projects continue to be reviewed for compliance with building and fire codes, accessibility standards, and crime prevention techniques. In 2021, 11 individual development projects received site development plan approval, including four (4) multi-family housing projects.

Policy LU-1.2.3: Encourage the use of wider sidewalks where higher levels of pedestrian activity occur and the use of non-contiguous sidewalk design where appropriate to help separate pedestrians from auto traffic.

Progress: An enhanced pedestrian realm, 12 feet wide, is required for new development along all major transportation corridors designated for mixed-use (University Avenue, El Cajon Boulevard, and portions of La Mesa Boulevard). Noncontiguous sidewalks are required citywide where compatible with existing street conditions.

Policy LU-1.2.4: Provide uniform, community identification and directional signage within the public right-of-way to identify the City's neighborhoods and activity centers.

Progress: New wayfinding and regulatory signs were installed at La Mesita, Rolando and Sunset Parks, in addition to a new wayfinding sign at the entrance to MacArthur Park. New wayfinding and park signage was installed at Harry Griffen Park to recognize members of the Joint Powers Authority.

Objective LU-1.3: Prioritize healthy lifestyle choices in land use decisions.

Policy LU-1.3.2: Encourage the creation of high-quality community plazas, squares, greens, commons, and community and neighborhood parks.

Progress: The Collier Park Renovation Project (phase II) received additional funding from California Department of Recreation and continued with the final design phase to include additional amenities. The project is scheduled to go to bid for construction in early-2022.

As part of the creation of the MacArthur Park Master Plan, an online presentation and survey to solicit input on two proposed concepts were presented in July, followed by a final concept and draft plan presentation in December for the future development and rehabilitation of the 22 acre park.

In response to requests for additional courts, pickleball lines were added to the four youth tennis courts at La Mesita Park, increasing the number of facilities available for the popular sport.

----------------------------
Through grant funding from the County of San Diego, 30' high safety netting was installed around Kuhlken Field at MacArthur Park, protecting park goers, and their cars, from fly balls.

Goal LU-2: Residential neighborhoods with strong character and cohesion.

Objective LU-2.1: Maintain and preserve single-family neighborhoods while directing growth to mixed-use corridors.

Policy LU-2.1.1: Enhance single-family residential neighborhoods through programs such as Development Review, Code Enforcement, Historic Preservation, and Capital Improvement Programs.

Progress: The City continued each of these programs in 2021. The Historic Preservation Commission continued work that began in 2018 to update the Historic Resources Inventory, a record of properties that embody the City's rich cultural, social, economic, and architectural history.

Policy LU-2.1.2: Support infill development and subdivision proposals that reinforce neighborhood strengths and benefit neighborhood identity.

Progress: The Design Review Board (ORB) reviews all new development projects for consistency with the Urban Design Program and neighborhood character compatibility.

In 2021, the ORB reviewed ten applications for new development and property improvements. Four projects were for new residential or mixed-use, four were for new commercial development, and one was for a commercial addition and alterations.

Work continued on a comprehensive ADU guidebook helpful for homeowners, design professionals, and contractors to facilitate ADU production as a form of infill development. The guidebook is being funded by an SB 2 Planning Grant.

Policy LU-2.1.4: Protect the character of recognized scenic and unique neighborhoods identified by the City's Overlay Zones, such as those areas that have a rural atmosphere or have been impacted by the SR-125.

Progress: Landscape plans are required for all new development and substantial improvements in the Scenic Preservation Overlay Zone, which primarily lies along SR125. The Planning Commission reviews grading proposals for new development in the Scenic Preservation Overlay Zone to ensure that scenic features are retained and incorporated into each proposed development to the extent feasible.

Policy LU-2.1.5: Implement the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone by promoting the rehabilitation of properties and new development that fits into the context of the existing neighborhoods while meeting the City's Urban Design Objectives for infill development.

Progress: The Design Review Board reviews projects in the Mixed-Use (MU) Overlay Zone for consistency with the City's Urban Design Program and Design Guidelines for 2021 General Plan Annual Report page 7 Page 66 of 250
Properties in the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone. In 2021, the City approved three (3) design review projects in the MU overlay, including a 49-unit mixed-use project, a 7-unit apartment project and exterior alterations to an existing commercial building.

Objective LU-2.2: Promote the character of each La Mesa neighborhood as a unique place to live.

Policy LU-2.2.2: All new development, redevelopment, and rehabilitation within residential neighborhoods shall be constructed to fit within the context of its neighborhood.

Progress: Single-family residences are required to comply with development standards including building height, setbacks, and lot coverage. In addition to development standards, larger development projects are subject to Design Review, which considers neighborhood context and compatibility as described in the Urban Design Program.

Alterations to properties located within the Date Avenue Historic District are reviewed by the Historic Preservation Commission for site and neighborhood compatibility.

Policy LU-2.2.3: Home-based businesses shall be permitted subject to standards which will preserve the residential character of the neighborhoods.

Progress: The City issued 85 new and 408 renewed home occupation business licenses in 2021. To ensure that residential character is preserved, business owners must agree to the following: no deliveries to the residence, no employees other than permanent residents, no signs or advertising, no storage of property or equipment other than that normally found at a residence, and no customer traffic.

Goal LU-3: Revitalized Commercial and Industrial Districts.

Objective LU-3.1: Maximize the potential of commercial centers in order to attract an appealing mix of new businesses.

Policy LU-3.1.3: Update the Downtown Village Specific Plan to reinforce the Downtown area as the symbolic center of the City and address new land use and infrastructure needs.

Progress: An update to the Downtown Village Specific Plan is currently being prepared.

The City is pursuing grant funding to complete the project.

Policy LU-3.1.4: Parking and circulation shall be adequate to serve the use and location of new development.

Progress: The City continues to require that new development provide on-site parking and circulation in accordance with adopted local and State parking requirements. A parking in-lieu program for the Downtown Village is in place. The in-lieu program is intended to encourage new development by providing alternatives to building on-site parking and fund public parking facilities.
2021 General Plan Annual Report page 8 Page 67 of 250
Policy LU-3.1.6: Provide new site amenities, such as outdoor seating areas, bike racks, landscaping, and street trees as development occurs.

Progress: The City continues to require the planting of street trees for new commercial and mixed-use development, as well as pedestrian-oriented improvements along mixeduse transit corridors. All new development in the Mixed-Use (MU) Overlay Zone is required to provide a "pedestrian realm" that includes street trees, street furniture, and widened sidewalks. This work has contributed toward revitalizing the downtown business district. Four development projects incorporating a pedestrian realm were approved in the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone in 2021.

In response to the coronavirus pandemic, in 2020 the City issued Executive Orders No. 3-2020 and 4-2020 to provide opportunities for the use of private outdoor areas for commercial activities, including outdoor dining. Through 2021, a total of 33 businesses had submitted applications for temporary outdoor uses in compliance with social distancing and all COVID-19 health orders.

Policy LU-3.1. 7: Encourage mixed-use transit-oriented development near public transportation facilities; new construction should be compact in form to take advantage of these transit-rich locations.

Progress: A transit feasibility study for the Amaya Drive and Spring Street stations was completed in 2021. Funded by a CAL TRANS Sustainable Communities Grant, the project assessed the feasibility of redeveloping two underutilized Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) owned transit stations with much needed affordable and market-rate TOD housing. The study evaluated how to best integrate transit and housing while maintaining existing transit station operations. Parties involved included the City of La Mesa, Caltrans, MTS, SANDAG, and local stakeholders (through a robust community outreach plan). The City worked with AECOM to conduct community outreach, create an Affordable Housing Program, and complete site and massing concept studies and parking and access studies.

A 49-unit mixed-use development was approved in the Mixed-Use Overlay zone in 2021.

Two additional projects submitted in late 2021 will be under review in 2022.

Objective LU-3.2: An industrial employment center attractive to customers from both local neighborhoods and Regional communities.

Policy LU-3.2.1: Recognize La Mesa's limited supply of industrial land and encourage clean industries that create a relatively high number of jobs.

Progress: Following the passage of Measure U in November 2016, the City received several conditional use permit applications for medical marijuana dispensaries, cultivation, and manufacturing businesses in Zone M. As of 2021, three (3) dispensaries, three (3) cultivation sites, and six (6) manufacturing sites had been approved in Zone M.

In 2019, the City adopted an adult use ordinance that provides additional business opportunities for the cannabis industry. As of 2021, two (2) medical marijuana dispensaries in Zone M zone were approved for Adult Use Co-location. 2021 General Plan Annual Report page 9 Page 68 of 250
Policy LU-3.2.2: Encourage the improvement of the appearance of the Central Industrial Area.

Progress: New development and remodeling of existing businesses in the Industrial Area, including cannabis businesses, are required to provide landscaping in accordance with the City's landscape standards. Right-of-way parking and landscaping improvements along project site frontages are also required for new development in the Central Industrial Area.

Goal LU-4: An equitable community that meets the needs of all residents.

Objective LU-4.1: Adequate and affordable housing available for all segments of the community.

Policy LU-4.1.1: Opportunities for affordable housing should exist in all residential areas to support the policies and programs for the City's Housing Element.

Progress: In 2019, the City adopted regulations for Accessory Dwelling Units and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units in accordance with California Government Code Sections 65852.2 and 65852.22. An update was completed in 2020 to incorporate additional State requirements effective January 1, 2020. The City is also developing a comprehensive ADU guidebook to facilitate ADU production. Funded by an SB 2 Planning Grant, the guidebook is geared towards helping homeowners, design professionals, and contractors and is expected to be complete in early 2022. In 2021, construction permits were issued for 65 ADUs.

In 2021, four (4) deed-restricted affordable housing projects were approved using the density bonus provisions of Government Code 65915.

Policy LU-4.1.2: Ensure that development meets the needs of the aging and disabled population.

Progress: The Building Division continues to review new development for compliance with accessibility regulations.

Objective LU-4.2: A development review process that balances the needs of all stakeholders.

Policy LU-4.2.1: Changes in patterns of building intensity and population density will be reviewed relative to: the compatibility of the proposed development with surrounding uses and design objectives and the adequacy and proximity of public facilities given the scale of the proposed development.

Progress: The Alvarado Specific Plan application for redevelopment of a 12-acre RV park is still under review by the City. The Alvarado Specific Plan proposes approximately 900 housing units, including student housing, at a density of roughly 75 units per acre.

Environmental review was conducted in 2020.
2021 General Plan Annual Report page 10 Page 69 of 250
Policy LU-4.2.3: New development shall provide adequate parking. For projects located in the Downtown area or near transit, parking requirements may be reduced. Additionally, differing land uses on the same subject property may utilize shared parking provisions.

Progress: The City continues to require that new development provide on-site parking in accordance with adopted parking requirements and parking standards. Parking near transit may be reduced as provided for by the Downtown Village Specific Plan, the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone, the Affordable Homes Bonus Program, and through a parking modification as allowed by the zoning ordinance. In Zone CD (Downtown Commercial), parking requirements are reduced by 25%, to 1.5 spaces per dwelling unit and three spaces per 1,000 square feet of commercial area. A credit is provided for parking spaces created by the closure of a driveway on a major roadway.

The City's adopted Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) regulations include a provision that no off-street parking be required for ADUs, due to the close proximity to transit of the vast majority of residentially-zoned property in the City.

In 2021, four (4) development projects were approved utilizing reduced parking ratios for affordable housing, and two additional project applications that include reduced parking ratios were under review.

Policy LU-4.2.5: Increased residential densities may be allowed by a Site Development Plan subject to a Density Bonus Program set forth in the Municipal Code. Development of senior or lower-income affordable housing may utilize the provisions of State Density Bonus Law as amended from time to time.

Progress: The City's Affordable Homes Bonus Program implements State Density Bonus Law (Government Code 65915). These regulations help address the State's growing problem of housing affordability. Density bonus projects approved by the City in 2021 included a 100 percent affordable apartment project of 147 units in the downtown village, a 49-unit mixed-use development, a 19-unit apartment project, and a 7-unit apartment development. Two additional affordable projects will be under consideration for approval in 2022.

Objective LU-4.3: Provide opportunities for community involvement and participation.

Policy LU-4.3.1: Promote citizen involvement and partnerships between residents, community organizations, and agencies, such as local school districts.

Progress: The City has continually increased its presence on social media to proactively push information to residents and engage the community on important topics. The City currently uses Facebook, Twitter, and lnstagram as its primary social media platforms and continues to see a gradual increase in followers on each. Currently, the City's social media platforms include 3,800 followers on Facebook, 4,069 followers on Twitter, and 3,102 followers on lnstagram. The City's website also utilizes community engagement apps such as Nixie and Notify Me to promote citizen involvement. In 2021, the City introduced the "SeeClickFix" app to allow residents to report non-emergency related 2021 General Plan Annual Report page 11 Page 70 of 250
issues to the City. SeeClickFix can be used via the Web on a desktop computer, laptop, mobile phone, or tablet. In 2021, the City Council adopted the 2021-2023 Community Engagement Plan to improve two-way communication with residents, promote transparency and honesty, and develop and omni-channel approach to communications by providing multiple mediums for engagement with the City Council and staff.

The City of La Mesa provides Government Access Programming on Cox Cable channel 24 within City limits and on AT&T U-verse channel 99 within the San Diego County Region. Programming includes live City Council Meetings, a community bulletin board, and supplementary programming from [San Diego] County Television Network. In 2021, the City installed three monitors in the City Hall lobby that currently run the community bulletin board via a content management system. Content on the community bulletin board is updated regularly or when new content becomes available.

The City continues to live stream Council meetings on Facebook Live and on the City's website. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the City moved to Zoomed Council Meetings in 2020 which provided an additional safe option for residents to participate in city government. The City continued to Zoom Council meetings in 2021 due to the ongoing pandemic and Omicron variant.

As part of the Livable La Mesa project, the Community Relations and Veterans Commission hosted two virtual community conversations via Zoom and Facebook. In February, a virtual resource fair was hosted providing information for older adults, particularly in relation programs available during COVID-19. In August, the County of San Diego Deputy District Attorney presented an informational session, "United Against Hate".

The Joint Use Agreement with the La Mesa Spring Valley School District was amended so that the City could take over maintenance of courts at Highwood Park/La Mesa Arts Academy where a project to renovate the courts is planned so they can be accessible for public use.

The City Council created an Arts and Culture Commission "to promote the area along with the historical, aesthetic and cultural aspects of the community by using the arts as a mechanism to promote diversity, equity and inclusion". The new Commission will begin meeting in 2022.

Goal LU-5: A strong local and regional economy.

Objective LU-5.1: Promote and maintain La Mesa as a business-friendly Regional employment center.

Policy LU-5.1.4: Comprehensive site planning is encouraged as part of the redevelopment process for individual properties. These plans should address not only the architectural design of buildings and site amenities but also the upgrading of public infrastructure. 2021 General Plan Annual Report page 12 Page 71 of 250
Progress: The City requires site development plan review and design review for commercial, mixed-use, and multiple-unit redevelopment projects. All such projects include infrastructure improvements along the street frontage. In 2021, nine (9) commercial and residential projects were approved with various on-site amenities, public infrastructure improvements, and pedestrian realm improvements.

Objective LU-5.2: Preserve and enhance the Downtown Village area as the City's symbolic center by providing a vibrant Commercial, Civic, and Residential District.

Policy LU-5.2.1: Continue communication with business owners to identify opportunities and constraints for developing business Downtown.

Progress: The Village Enhancement Program was adopted by City Council in 2019 to encourage ongoing investment in the downtown village, attract customers to businesses, and to create entertainment opportunities for residents. In 2021, two downtown village events took place that were approved for funding from the Village Enhancement Fund Program. Those events were the 2021 Oktoberfest and the 2021 Holiday in the Village event. Both events successfully promoted the downtown village and brought much needed business to restaurants and retail establishments. In addition to Oktoberfest and Holiday in the Village, the La Mesa Village Association received funding through the Village Enhancement Program for an advertising program to promote the village that included billboard messaging on the Interstate 8 freeway to attract customers from outside La Mesa.

To assist restaurants in the downtown village during the pandemic, the City implemented temporary outdoor dining regulations to allow for outdoor dining on adjacent walkways, sidewalks, and onsite and in street parking areas. The temporary outdoor dining regulations and permitting process provides much needed outdoor capacity for restaurants during the ongoing pandemic.

Policy LU-5.2.3: Utilize the framework of the Downtown Village Parking District and the La Mesa Parking Commission to locate and manage parking in Downtown and evaluate the feasibility of a parking structure when warranted by future parking demand.

Progress: Smart parking meters that allow for the ability to make payments through a smart phone or tablet using an app or by using near-field communications and Apple Pay or Android Pay are in place.

The City's parking in-lieu fee program for the Downtown Village is intended to encourage new development by providing alternatives to building on-site parking and fund public parking facilities.

Policy LU-5.2.4: Preserve historic buildings in the Downtown Village, and other Commercial areas, through restoration and adaptive reuse, where feasible.

Progress: The Historic Preservation Commission continued work updating the Historic Resources Inventory, a record of properties that embody the City's rich cultural, social, economic, and architectural history.
2021 General Plan Annual Report page 13 Page 72 of 250
Goal LU-6: A City where the environmental, social, and economic needs of the residents are met without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same.

Objective LU-6.1: Evaluate the short-term and long-term impact on valuable resources such as water, energy, and open space when making land use decisions.

Policy LU-6.1.1: Reduce the City's Greenhouse Gas Emissions through energy efficient improvements, support for alternative modes of transportation, transportation demand management (TOM) practices and sound waste management practices.

Section XI
Housing Element
The Housing Element is intended to guide residential development and preservation in a way that coincides with the overall economic and social values of the community. The residential character of a city is largely dependent on the type and quality of its dwelling units, their location, and such factors as maintenance and neighborhood amenities. The Housing Element is an official municipal response to a growing awareness of the need to provide housing for all economic segments of the community, as well as a legal requirement that housing policy is part of the planning process. As such, the Element establishes polices that will guide City officials in daily decision making and sets forth an action program designed to enable the City to realize its housing goals. Attachment 1 summarizes the current implementation status of all the programs described in the Housing Element.
