ISSUE: 2023 Laguna Hills Memorial Day Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K Event PreEvent Update Report RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council receive and file the report.

SUMMARY:

The 24
th annual City of Laguna Hills Memorial Day Half Marathon, 10K and 5K, honoring the USMC Dark Horse Battalion is scheduled for Monday, May 29, 2023. Event registration opened in December 2022, and there are one thousand thirteen (1,013) event participants registered for the event at this time. The Laguna Hills 3/5 Marine Support Committee (“Team Darkhorse”) selected Capt. Cameron West (Ret) USMC to serve as the Grand Marshall for the 2023 event. The City once again intends to donate $3 from each paid 5K, 10K, and half marathon race registrations to Team Darkhorse at the conclusion of the event.

Spectrum Sports Management, Inc. (Spectrum Sports) is the City’s event manager for the City’s Memorial Day race event.

BACKGROUND:

The 24th annual City of Laguna Hills Memorial Day Half Marathon, 10K and 5K honoring the USMC Dark Horse Battalion is scheduled for Monday, May 29, 2023. A modification to the half-marathon race start time from 7:00am to 6:30am will occur this year to minimize impacts of road closures. An event schedule is provided below which highlights the start times for the other race events. Award and dignitary presentations,

as well as recognition of the Grand Marshall, will also be worked into the event schedule.

Spectrum Sports intends to once again work with The Toll Roads to waive toll road fees in exchange for booth space at the Community Expo. The tolls will be waived between the hours of 6:00am to 9:00am. Toll road fees have historically been waived for past events to minimize the inconvenience for Aliso Viejo residents due to the road closures at Alicia Parkway and Moulton Parkway.

Current race registrations are at one thousand thirteen (1,013) participants which is similar to registrations this time last year. A total of two thousand, seven hundred eighty runners (2,780) participated in the event last year.

All course maps are attached to this staff report (see Attachment 1). The finishers medal for 2023 is honoring prisoners of war and missing in action. All finishers of all race distances will receive a medal. An image of this year’s finishers medal, in addition to an image of the Sprit of Valor Medal series, is also included with the staff report (see Attachment 2).

As the City Council may recall, a pledge formula was established by City Council direction, whereby, the City intends to donate $3 from each paid 5K, 10K, and half marathon registration to Team Darkhorse at the conclusion of the event. The pledge formula for providing continued financial support to Team Darkhorse was established by the City Council at its November 22, 2011, meeting after reviewing several funding options. The donation to Team Darkhorse is formalized with a Community Assistance Funding Resolution each year as a post event action by the City Council. Based on the City Council approved pledge formula, $7,797 was provided to Team Darkhorse in 2022

by City Council Resolution for Community Assistance Funding.

Meet our 2023 Grand Marshal — Capt. Cameron West (Ret) USMC “My grandfather was a Marine and my hero, so it was set in my mind from an early age that that is what I wanted to be.”
Cameron West achieved his goal in 2008 when he was
offered and accepted commission as a United States
Marine Corp Officer 2nd Lieutenant. Lt West was then
accepted into and passed the challenging Infantry Officer Course, and assigned to 3rdBattalion,5thMarines as an
Infantry Officer platoon leader. His first deployment in 2010 sent him to Sangin, Afghanistan.

On a patrol in early fall he was hit by an IED explosion that severed one of his legs. Quick reaction by his Marines and Corpsman saved his life, enabled him to be evacuated
from the fire field, first to a military hospital, then finally to Balboa Naval Hospital in San Diego.
“Recovery was quick at Balboa Naval Hospital. They usually got Marines up and walking in some sort of fashion within 5-6 months depending on your injury. Many of us did skiing, rafting, hand cycling but most important was hanging out with our fellow Marines and service members. There were so many injured during that deployment that we were able to lean on each other when needed or answer the call when a brother was not in the right headspace.”
Capt West was in the news in 2013 following the Boston Marathon bombing, when he and other combat injured amputees visited hospitalized victims who’d suffered similar injuries.
“There were so many reports of amputees from the blast. It seemed as though they had many of the same physical wounds and traumatic experiences that our entire group had had, so we felt like we could share in those feelings and hopefully be a beacon of hope to them by walking into their rooms on prosthetics and showing them this is not the end of their lives but just the beginning.”
Cameron eventually returned to his home state, where he now lives in Acworth Georgia. “We stay pretty busy with three wonderful kids. Ella, Robert, Ethan. 8,6,4,” he says. "They do gymnastics, cheerleading, basketball, I coach baseball and they do jiu jitsu with me and

4.5.c
Packet Pg. 41
Attachment: Attachment 3 - Grand Marshal (3122 : Memorial Day Race) Attachment 3
hiking." Capt West’s positive energy and natural optimism is infectious, and his willingness to tackle new challenges is an inspiration. Most recently he and another amputee climbed Mt Kilimanjaro at 19, 341 feet high.
"It took us 6 days to summit and 8 days on the mountain total. It was a wonderful experience and was a good challenge to take part in. The highlight of the entire trip was the Tanzanian people. They were full of such kindness and love and enjoyed smiling, laughing and good conversation." He credits his friend and amputee Marine Adam Kisielewskin who runs the non-profit “No Person Left Behind” for the trip. The organization supports Purple Heart recipients by getting them back in the rugged outdoors.

Conversation with Cameron turns back to why he is here to represent as Grand Marshal of the Memorial Day Race.

Other Marines, including his close friend Lt Robert Kelly, continued the fight in Sangin, but 25 ultimately lost their lives there, and it is those men whom Capt West helps us honor by his presence at our race. It is also these Marines whose tribute banners line our race route each year. Capt West was among other Darkhorse veterans who participated in the 2013 race with our first Grand Marshal Josue Barron.

Capt West directs us back to the reason for Memorial Day and tells us, "To me Memorial Day is about remembering. Remembering those that we still and always will love. It is also about Honoring their sacrifice to us all. We live up to their sacrifices by living our own lives in the present as fully as we can, as they did, even if sometimes we feel we may fail.

It is our duty to live up to the courage that these young men showed all of us not long ago."
Having Capt West present as our Grand Marshal is an honor and a reminder of who and why we honor on this day, that we never forget all the young men and women who have given their lives in service of our country, whose courage stands above the sands of time. Semper Fi.

Initiation of the 2023 Weed Abatement Program
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt a Resolution entitled: "A

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAGUNA HILLS, CALIFORNIA,

DECLARING WEEDS AND RUBBISH ON SPECIFIED PRIVATE PROPERTY TO BE A PUBLIC

NUISANCE, COMMENCING PUBLIC PROCEEDINGS, AND SETTING A PUBLIC HEARING FOR MAY 9, 2023."
SUMMARY:

The Public Works Department requests that the City Council adopt a Resolution to formally initiate the annual Weed Abatement Program in accordance with provisions in the State Government Code to reduce potential fire hazards and improve public health and safety.

BACKGROUND:

Annually, in accordance with Government Code Section 39560, et seq., the City initiates a Weed Abatement Program to control noxious or dangerous weeds for health and safety purposes and for management of fire hazards. The Weed Abatement Program procedures include the following general activities:

March, 2023 Inspect properties for potential weed abatement April 11, 2023 Adopt a Resolution declaring weeds to be a nuisance and declaring the intent to abate weeds

July 11, 2023 Hold the Public Hearing on assessment of weed abatement costs July 17, 2023 Submit costs to County Assessor’s office
The attached Resolution initiates the Weed Abatement Program and authorizes the Public Works Department to send notices to property owners advising them to remove any public nuisance (weeds and rubbish among other materials) that, when dry, become a fire hazard. Property owners are advised that they have until May 31, 2023, to comply with cleaning their property and that they may state their objections to the Weed Abatement Notice before the City Council at a Public Hearing to be held on May 9, 2023.

The attached notice will be sent to approximately 543 private properties scattered throughout the City. The notice includes language as required by Government Code Section 39566. To explain the weed abatement program, staff will also enclose a general informational letter describing the need for the notice and the importance of weed abatement. Historically, property owners have appropriately responded to the notices and have abated their own weeds. Last year, City contractors had to only perform weed abatement on one private parcel.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The weed abatement program has been budgeted for fiscal year 2022-2023 in the amount of $55,000. Some of these costs may be recovered as an assessment upon the private parcels requiring abatement (if any), and the balance relates to the annual clearing of City-owned properties.

SUBJECT: NOTICE TO DESTROY WEEDS AT ASSESSOR’S PARCEL NUMBER «APN», «LOT_ADDRESS» Dear Property Owner:

The City of Laguna Hills requests your assistance in reducing potential fire hazards in our community. A recent inspection of open space and slope areas revealed that the property described by the above Assessor’s Parcel Number may have vegetation (grass, weeds, brush, trees) or litter upon it, which may contribute to a hazardous fire condition. As the owner, the condition of the property is your responsibility. The City is required to follow State law to make sure that a weed abatement program is implemented. In this regard, the required official notice to destroy weeds and remove rubbish and refuse is provided on the back of this letter. It is important to note that after May 31, 2023, property not cleared and maintained by the owner is subject to being cleared by City contracted crews when manpower and equipment are available. The charges for clearing plus a $503.01 administrative fee will be added to the owner’s property tax statement.

THIS IS THE ONLY NOTIFICATION YOU WILL RECEIVE. Please note that if you are no longer the owner of this property, you are required by law to disclose the contents of this notice to the new owner. This disclosure must be made through escrow or by notifying this office of the new owner’s name and address. Failure to properly notify the new owner may result in you being liable for charges assessed to the property.

Please refer to the enclosed information sheets that contain general information about the City’s Weed Abatement Program, location of the nearest County landfill, and a list of clearing contractors for your use.

Please note that there currently may or may not be vegetation on the subject parcel which may contribute to a hazardous fire condition, however there is a potential for growth as we approach the fire season. Property cleared and maintained free of flammable vegetation or litter is not subject to further action by this Department. Regrowth of vegetation as a result of a late rainfall may necessitate additional clearing. Property not maintained in a fire safe condition may be cleared by the City without further notice.

Please note that discing operations on steep hillsides is not considered to be an appropriate weed abatement measure because of dust generation & erosion issues associated with this process. Please use alternative methods for clearing weeds from your hillside such as mowing.

Your cooperation in performing the exterior property clearing, either through your efforts or done by someone you retain, will greatly aid your fire safety. With your help, we have a better chance to protect homes and improvements and keep damage to a minimum if a wildfire does occur.

For further information, or if you have made permanent improvements to the subject property and feel that you should be removed from our mailing list, you may call (949) 707-2651, Monday through Friday, or you may email at [email protected].

Sincerely,

REFUSE
Notice is hereby given that on the 11
th day of April, 2023, the City of Laguna Hills City Council passed a Resolution declaring that noxious or dangerous weeds were growing upon or in front of the property on certain streets (or roads) in the City of Laguna Hills and that rubbish, refuse and dirt were upon or in front of the property on certain streets (or roads) in the City of Laguna Hills, including this property as more particularly described in said Resolution, and that the same constitutes a public nuisance which must be abated by the removal of the weeds, rubbish, refuse and dirt. Otherwise they will be removed and the nuisance will be abated by City of Laguna Hills authorities, in which case the cost of such removal shall be assessed upon the lots and lands from which or in front of which such weeds are removed and such cost will constitute a lien upon such lots and lands until paid. Reference is hereby made to the Resolution for further particulars. A copy of said Resolution is on file in the office of the City Clerk.

All property owners having objection to the proposed removal of such weeds are hereby notified to attend a Public Hearing before the City Council of the City of Laguna Hills scheduled for May 9, 2023, at 24035 El Toro Road, Laguna Hills, California, 92653, beginning at 7:00 P.M., or as soon thereafter as practical, when their objections will be heard and given due consideration.

CITY OF LAGUNA HILLS WEED ABATEMENT

SUPPLEMENTAL GUIDELINES
Dear Property Owner:

The City of Laguna Hills conducts an annual weed abatement program designed to reduce fire hazards during the summer season. This year, the program is scheduled to commence in early March. The weed abatement program is done in accordance with Government Code Section 39560, et seq., and the Orange County Fire Authority standards.

Typically, in March of every year, the City’s Public Works Department performs a limited “precanvassing” of private properties to identify properties, which have weeds or other noxious plants upon them that may pose a fire hazard during the fire season. In April, the Department sends a letter and a “Notice to Destroy Weeds” to property owners for properties that have historically been known to have weeds on them or were observed to have weeds on them during the pre-canvassing; therefore, not every property owner will receive a notice. The letters are sent to the property owners’ last known address, as reported by the County of Orange Tax Assessor’s Office, advising the owner to clear all weeds or noxious materials from their property before a pre-determined date. Those property owners that have not performed the weed abatement as required are subject to the City’s contractor removing the weeds at the expense of the property owner.

The list of fire prone plant species (on the next page) within this document will be provided to owners that receive notices from the Department. Weeds identified in the list as well as any dead, overgrown, or dried out vegetation, plants, and trees must be removed within 100 feet of any structure. Please note that the 100-foot clearance also includes distances to those structures that may be located on a neighbor’s property. The Public Works Department considers a structure to be an inhabitable building, such as a house, or any building that houses animals and any building that stores real property, such as a garage or storage shed.

The City wishes to avoid clearing weeds and noxious materials on private property and billing the property owner for this work; therefore, the best way to avoid this process is to clear the weeds out before the deadline stated in the official notice. Please be reminded that persons who receive a Notice to Destroy Weeds and who are not the current property owner of the property in question MUST contact the City of Laguna Hills promptly at (949) 707-2651 or the person may be required to pay for any clearing work on the property done by the City, if applicable.

The City of Laguna Hills wishes to thank you for your cooperation in making our community a safer place to live and work. If you have any questions about the City’s weed abatement program, please call Julie Comella at (949) 707-2651.

Sincerely,
Joe Ames, P.E., T.E.

FIRE PRONE PLANT SPECIES
Certain plants are considered to be undesirable in the landscape due to characteristics that make them highly flammable. These characteristics can either be physical or chemical.

Physical properties that would contribute to high flammability include large amounts of dead material retained within the plant, rough or peeling bark, and the production of copious amounts of litter. Chemical properties include the presence of volatile substances such as oils, resins, wax, and pitch. Certain native plants are notorious for containing these volatile substances.

Plants with these characteristics should not be planted or maintained on private property or hillsides. Should these species already exist on your property, they shall be removed within 100 feet of any structure. The Public Works Department considers a structure to be an inhabitable building, such as a house, or any building that houses animals and any building that stores real property, such as a garage or storage shed.

These plants are referred to as “target species” since their complete removal is a critical part of fire hazard reduction. These fire-prone plant species are (but not limited to):

Botanical Name Common Name
Cynara Cardunculus.................................... Artichoke Thistle Ricinus Communis....................................... Castor Bean Plant Cirsium Vulgare........................................... Wild Artichoke Brassica Nigra............................................. Black Mustard Silybrum Marianum...................................... Milk Thistle Sacsola Austails ..........................................

Chamise Adenostoma Sparsifolium............................ Red Shanks, Ribbon Bush Cortaderia Selloana..................................... Pampas Grass Artemisia Californica.................................... California Sagebrush Eriogonum Fasciculatum ............................. Common Buckwheat Salvia Mellifera............................................ Black Sage Property owners shall also remove ALL dead, overgrown, or dried out vegetation, plants, and trees within 100 feet of any structure.

TO: Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Jarad Hildenbrand
City Manager
ISSUE: Legislative Update for the 2023 Legislative Session of the California State Legislature
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve the letters of opposition to Assembly Bill 742 (Jackson) and Senate Bill 423 (Wiener) and authorize the Mayor to execute the letters.

SUMMARY:

Each year, the City actively monitors the activity of the Legislature and advocates on legislation that may have an impact, either positive or negative, on the Laguna Hills community. The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council with a summary of two bills that are of particular interest to the City related to housing development and law enforcement. A summary of each bill is provided below, and draft opposition letters for each bill are attached to this report. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the letters of opposition to Assembly Bill 742 (Jackson) and Senate Bill 423 (Wiener) and authorize the Mayor to execute the letters.

Assembly Bill (AB) 742 (Jackson) – Law enforcement: police canines.

Status: This is an active bill in the Assembly in the Committee on Appropriations. The bill was last amended on March 15, 2023. There is no scheduled hearing date at this time.

Recommended Position: Oppose.

Other entities’ positions: Cal Cities and ACC-OC have taken an Oppose position.

4.7 Packet Pg. 60
Legislative Update
April 11, 2023

Page 2 ends

Summary: This bill would prohibit the use of an unleashed police canine by law enforcement to apprehend a person, and any use of a police canine for crowd control.

The bill would prohibit law enforcement agencies from authorizing any use or training of a police canine that is inconsistent with this bill.

AB 423 (Wiener) – Land use: streamlined housing approvals: multifamily housing developments.

Status: This is an active bill in the Senate, currently being heard by the Senate Committee on Governance and Finance. The bill was last amended on March 28, 2023.

Recommended Position: Oppose.

Other entities’ positions: Cal Cities has taken an Oppose position.

Summary: This bill would modify and expand SB 35 provisions that allow certain multifamily housing developments to take advantage of a streamlined, ministerial approval process. Specifically, this bill would:

1. Remove the 2026 sunset and make the statutes permanent.

2. Apply SB 35 provisions to the Coastal Zone.

3. Allow the State to approve housing developments on property they own or lease.

4. Prohibit a city from enforcing its inclusionary housing ordinance if the income limits are higher than those described in SB 35.

Chair, Assembly Appropriations Committee
1021 O Street, Suite 8220
Sacramento, CA 95814
SUBJECT: Opposition to Assembly Bill 742 (Jackson) – Law Enforcement: Police Canines Dear Assembly Member Holden:

The City of Laguna Hills must respectfully oppose Assembly Bill (AB) 742. This measure would provide that a peace officer shall not use an unleashed police canine to arrest or apprehend a person or for crowd control, and that a police canine shall not be used in any circumstance to bite.

Canines are meant to be utilized as non-lethal options in circumstances that call for more robust law enforcement response. The requirements of this bill are concerning, particularly related to the overly broad restrictions that do not consider the highly dynamic and sometimes unruly nature of certain calls for service.

It should be considered that an arbitrary ban on the use of canines may not increase public safety but further limit a peace officer’s ability to enforce the law and limit the ability of law enforcement to apprehend suspects in certain situations. As drafted, AB 742 would leave our law enforcement officers with limited options for prevention or intervention.

For these reasons, the City of Laguna Hills opposes AB 742.

Sincerely,

The Honorable Scott Wiener
Chair, Senate Committee on Housing
1020 O Street, Suite 3330
Sacramento, CA 95814
SUBJECT: Opposition to Senate Bill 423 (Wiener) - Land Use: Streamlined Housing Approvals:

Multifamily Housing Developments
Dear Senator Wiener:

On behalf of the City of Laguna Hills, I am writing to express opposition to your measure, Senate Bill (SB) 423, related to streamlined housing approvals for multifamily housing developments. This bill would amend and expand the streamlined ministerial approval process for certain housing projects as described in Section 65913.4 of the Government Code and further erode the community engagement and public input process related to housing developments and long-term housing plans in Laguna Hills. There are many problematic requirements in this bill including, but not limited to:
(1) Requiring the City of Laguna Hills, prior to approving a development, compliance with any standards necessary to receive a post-entitlement permit; (2) Removing authorization to conduct public oversight of the development other than a planning agency;
(3) Removing prevailing wage and healthcare requirements for certain developments; and (4) Requiring that coastal zones would be subject to the streamlined, ministerial approval process.

While it may be frustrating for some developers to address neighborhood concerns about traffic, parking, and other development impacts, Laguna Hills residents affected by such housing development projects have a right to participate in the public engagement process and to express their opinions to their elected officials. Instead of continuing to pursue top-down, one-size-fits-all legislation, lawmakers should partner with local officials. California will never produce the number of homes needed with an increasingly state driven, by-right housing approval process.

Sincerely,

FROM: Larry Longenecker
Community Development Director
ISSUE: Introduction and First Reading of a Proposed Ordinance Modifying the Parking Requirement for Low-Intensity Medical Office Uses RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:
1) Conduct a public hearing; and
2) Find and determine that this Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, Sections 15060 (c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly; and 3) Introduce for first reading, read by title only, and waive further reading of an Ordinance entitled: “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAGUNA HILLS, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT NO. RZNE-0007-2023, AN AMENDMENT TO TITLE 9 (ZONING AND SUBDIVISIONS) OF THE LAGUNA HILLS MUNICIPAL CODE, UPDATING CHAPTER 9-44 (ACCESS AND PARKING) TO MODIFY THE

PARKING REQUIREMENT FOR LOW-INTENSITY MEDICAL OFFICE USES INCLUDING

CHIROPRACTIC, ACUPUNCTURE, OPTOMETRY, PHYSICAL THERAPY, AND PSYCHOTHERAPY OFFICES”.

SUMMARY:

Currently, the City’s Development Code requires a minimum parking ratio of one stall

6.1 Packet Pg. 64
Parking Requirement for Low-Intensity Medical Office Uses April 11, 2023

Page 2 ends

for each 150 square feet of building area for all medical and dental office uses, compared to one stall for each 300 square feet of building area for other professional offices. The City receives requests from time to time for relief from the more restrictive medical office parking ratio, typically from chiropractors, acupuncturists, optometrists, physical therapists, and psychotherapists, claiming their uses have lower-intensity operating characteristics than other medical uses. These characteristics include: limited practitioners and minimal support staff; extended one-on-one visits with the practitioner; visits by appointment only; and serving a narrow client base. In contrast, typical clinics and medical and dental offices tend to have: more practitioners and/or larger support staffs; queues in waiting rooms; overlapping of patient visits; and they accommodate more emergency visits.

Based on these inquiries, staff researched the issue, concluded that certain low-intensity medical office uses do warrant a less restrictive parking ratio, and initiated an ordinance for City Council consideration. The proposed ordinance requires a minimum of one stall for each 300 square feet of building area for low-intensity medical office uses, equal to the parking requirement for other professional offices.

BACKGROUND:

In accordance with the City’s Development Code, medical office uses are a permitted use in the City’s Commercial, Office, and Mixed-Use zoning districts, through approval of an administrative Site Development Permit. In accordance with Development Code Table 9-44.A, Number of Parking Stalls Required (see Attachment 2), all medical and dental office uses require one off-street parking stall for each 150 square-feet of gross floor area (GFA) of the medical or dental tenant space. The Development Code minimum parking ratio for medical and dental offices is higher than other office uses, as summarized in Table 1, below:

Table 1, Number of Parking Stalls Required – Office Uses Office Use Code Required Number of Stalls
Business and professional office (except medical) 1 stall/300 SF-GFA Financial services (banks, savings and loans, credit unions) 1 stall/250 SF-GFA Medical and dental office 1 stall/150 SF-GFA
Veterinary office 1 stall/200 SF-GFA

DISCUSSION:

Inquiries and requests for parking relief are made to the City from time to time by medical professionals considering locating or expanding their medical practice in the City of Laguna Hills, at locations that do not provide the minimum parking ratio required for medical and dental offices: one parking stall for each 150 square feet of tenant space area, in accordance with Development Code Table 9-44.A (see Table 1, above, and Attachment 2). These requests for parking relief typically come from a specific group of medical office uses, including chiropractors, optometrists, physical therapists, acupuncturists, and psychotherapists (treating mental conditions by verbal interaction), claiming to have lower-intensity operating characteristics than traditional clinics and doctors’ and dentists’ offices, thereby warranting a less restrictive minimum parking ratio.

Claims have been made to the City that requiring low-intensity medical office uses to satisfy the same parking requirement (1 stall/150 s.f.) as higher-intensity medical office uses restricts low-intensity uses to medical office buildings with adequate parking to meet the restrictive medical office parking standard. These medical office buildings typically charge higher rent due to the additional parking provided, and requiring the same amount of parking for all medical office uses, including low-intensity uses, has the potential to artificially tighten the rental market for medical office space, thereby inflating rental rates for all medical professionals.

Certain low-intensity medical office uses, such as chiropractic, acupuncture, optometry, physical therapy, and psychotherapy offices have similar operational characteristics and can be categorized differently than more intense medical office uses, such as clinics and traditional doctors’ and dentists’ office uses. Typical low-intensity operational characteristics include: limited practitioners and minimal support staff; extended oneon-one visits with the practitioner; visits by appointment only; and they serve a narrow client base.

In contrast, typical clinics and medical and dental offices tend to have: more practitioners and/or larger support staffs; queues in waiting rooms; overlapping of patient visits; and they accommodate emergency visits. These more intense medical office uses generate high trip volumes and demand relatively high parking requirements, such that the current Development Code requirement of one stall for each 150 square feet of tenant area is warranted. No change is proposed for these more intense medical office uses.

6.1 Packet Pg. 66
Parking Requirement for Low-Intensity Medical Office Uses April 11, 2023

Page 4 ends

Other medical office uses, however, such as chiropractic, acupuncture, optometry, physical therapy, and psychotherapy typically do not warrant the higher Development Code parking requirement for medical and dental offices. Because these low-intensity medical office uses generate fewer trips and disperse these trips more evenly throughout the day, they require fewer parking stalls than more intensive medical uses.

The proposed ordinance recognizes this distinction in parking demand and requires a minimum parking ratio of one parking stall for each 300 square feet of tenant space, equal to parking required for other professional offices.

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAGUNA HILLS, CALIFORNIA, HEREBY FINDS AND DETERMINES AS FOLLOWS:

WHEREAS, Title 9 (Zoning and Subdivisions) of the Laguna Hills Municipal Code (LHMC) establishes allowable uses of property within all zoning districts in the City; and
WHEREAS, Chapter 9-44 (Access and Parking) of Title 9 of the LHMC establishes the required number of parking stalls for generic and individual allowable uses of property, to ensure that all land uses provide adequate off-street parking facilities; and
WHEREAS, Chapter 9-44 (Access and Parking) of Title 9 of the LHMC currently requires a minimum of one parking stall for each 150 square feet of gross floor area for all medical and dental office uses, with no distinction between intensities of use typically associated with various types of medical office uses; and WHEREAS, the City has received multiple inquiries and requests to consider a less-restrictive off-street parking stall requirement for low-intensity medical office uses such as chiropractic, acupuncture, optometry, physical therapy, and psychotherapy offices, all with similar operating characteristics including: limited practitioners and minimal support staff; extended one-on-one visits with the practitioner; visits by appointment only; and serving a narrow client base; and WHEREAS, the City Council desires to require the number of parking stalls, in accordance with Chapter 9-44 (Access and Parking) of Title 9 of the LHMC, that accurately reflects the intensity of different medical office uses while ensuring all medical office uses provide adequate off-street parking facilities; and WHEREAS, this Ordinance is a City-initiated zoning text amendment subject to Chapter 9-90 of the LHMC. Adoption of an amendment to the LHMC is a legislative act of the City Council subject to consideration and approval of an ordinance after a public hearing (LHMC §§ 9-90.050 and 9-90.060); and

ISSUE: Naming of the City’s New Electronic Newsletter
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve “The Roundup” as the official name of the City’s electronic newsletter.

SUMMARY:

In an effort to expand communications efforts with residents and businesses, the City is about to launch an electronic newsletter delivered to subscribers’ email inbox. Each newsletter will feature a range of important topics including events, services, programs, projects, and other helpful tips and information.

This item seeks the City Council’s input regarding the electronic newsletter’s name. The City Manager held a naming contest amongst staff and 44 potential names were submitted. Staff ultimately chose “The Roundup” as the winning name. Roundup is defined as a summary of facts or events and pays homage to the City’s ranching heritage.

Proposed design of The Roundup.

Mayor and Council Members
Joe Ames, P.E., T.E.

Public Works Director/City Engineer
LH on the Hill Lighting
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council review the report and provide direction to City staff.

SUMMARY:

Recently, the Events, Communication, and Beautification Committee suggested revisiting the illumination of “LH on the Hill,” expressing a desire to illuminate the letters, but with an illumination system that allows for changeable colors, programming, and remote control capability. Based upon this direction, City staff developed three alternatives for consideration and discussion by the City Council. City staff now requests direction on this issue.

BACKGROUND:

In 2021, City Council directed City staff to develop the “LH on the Hill” project, which is a project consisting of hillside signage spelling the letters “LH” for Laguna Hills, and placed on the hillside directly below 25732 and 25736 La Serra and near the Moulton Niguel Water District tank. CIP No. 403 was established for this project.

Richard Fisher Associates developed plans and specifications for the project. The Base Bid included the installation of 24” x 24” concrete pavers spelling out the letters “LH,” and an Alternate Bid for the installation of two (2) Solar Lighting International “Stealth” Luminaire solar powered lights to illuminate the letters at night. These solar powered up-lights were to be white lights.

7.2.1 Packet Pg. 76
LH on the Hill Lighting
April 11, 2023

Page 2 ends

On January 13, 2022, bids for CIP No. 403 were opened. Nieves Landscape, Inc. was the lowest, responsive, responsible bidder with a Base Bid of $36,857 and an Alternate Bid of $28,560. On January 25, 2022, the City Council awarded a Public Works Construction Contract for the “LH on the Hill” project, CIP No. 403, to Nieves Landscape, Inc. for the Base Bid only.

The Alternate Bid was not awarded by City Council at the recommendation of City staff.

City staff cited the relatively high cost of that element versus the cost of the “LH” itself and indicated it would be prudent to see if the “LH” is visible at night due to ambient lighting.

Recently, the Events, Communication, and Beautification Committee suggested revisiting the lighting issue, expressing a desire to illuminate the letters, but with an illumination system that allows for changeable colors, programming, and remote control capability. To this end, City staff developed three alternatives for consideration by City Council.

The first option consists of the installation of commercial-grade LED outdoor strip lighting mounted to the edge of the concrete paver “letters” outlining the “L” and the “H.” This option includes installation of underground conduit, solar panels, a weather proof control cabinet containing batteries, a timeclock, a controller that will allow for the LED lights to be programmed and able to cycle through different colors and dimming modes, and a concrete pad for the weather proof cabinet. This proposal excludes the concrete pad for the solar unit. This proposal provided by RJ Electric in December 2022 to City staff was in the amount of $200,890.

The second option consists of the installation of four (4) commercial-grade “Solara” solar-powered light fixtures for up-lighting, using two lights for each letter. The Solara fixtures are currently being used to uplight the City’s banners at street corners. This option is most similar to what was originally contemplated by the Richard Fisher Associates design plans from 2021. In November 2021, at the request of City staff for cost comparison to the Richard Fisher Associates design and Nieves Landscape bid, RJ Electric provided a proposal in the amount of $3,450 for this work. However, this proposal does not include installation of the necessary concrete pads for the lights. This option also does not include any color changing, programming, or remote control capabilities, or backup battery power. These Solara solar-powered lights would emit white light only on a dusk to dawn basis.

The third option consists of an off-the-shelf residential-grade product such as a LED rope

7.2.1 Packet Pg. 77
LH on the Hill Lighting
April 11, 2023

Page 3 ends

light or a LED spot light on a stake, which would be solar powered. A well-known online merchant has several of these products for sale at a cost of $20-$80 each; however, City staff is concerned about the quality and longevity of these products. Furthermore, these residential-grade devices produce lower lumens (candlepower) than their commercialgrade counterparts.

For comparison, the original Richard Fisher Associates’ design plans proposed two (2) commercial-grade Solar Lighting International “Stealth” 120W-21 Luminaire up-lights rated at 19,200 lumens each. The commercial-grade Solara light fixtures proposed by RJ Electric are 2,000 lumens each. Typical residential LED spot light staked fixtures, such as the ones included as an attachment to this agenda packet, are approximately 200-650 lumens depending on the product chosen.

More information about these products can be found as an attachment to this agenda report.

CEQA FINDINGS:

This report does not qualify as a "project" subject to CEQA because it constitutes 1) continuing administrative or maintenance activities, such as general policy and procedure making; and 2) government fiscal activities that do not involve any commitment to any specific project that may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment.

Staff Report
DATE: April 11, 2023
TO: Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Larry Longenecker
Community Development Director
ISSUE: Introduction and First Reading of a Proposed Ordinance Prohibiting the Advertisement and Rental of Property for Short-Term Rental in All Residential Zones
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:
1) Receive the staff report; and
2) Find and determine that this Ordinance is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to state CEQA guidelines because it is not considered a project (14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15378) and there is no possibility that this Ordinance or its implementation would have a significant negative effect on the environment (14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15061(b)(3)); and 3) Introduce for first reading, read by title only, and waive further reading of an Ordinance entitled: “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF LAGUNA HILLS, CALIFORNIA, ADDING CHAPTER 6-40 (SHORT-TERM RENTALS) TO TITLE 6 (PUBLIC WELFARE) OF THE

LAGUNA HILLS MUNICIPAL CODE TO PROHIBIT THE ADVERTISEMENT AND RENTAL OF PROPERTY FOR SHORT-TERM RENTAL IN ALL RESIDENTIAL ZONES.” SUMMARY:

Short-Term Rentals (STRs) were discussed by the City Council at its June 28, 2022, meeting, with ten Nellie Gail Ranch residents complaining about an extremely large house party causing a public nuisance on June 18, 2022, located at 25166 Rockridge Road. The City Council directed staff to research the issue and explore options to

Short-Term Rental Ordinance
April 11, 2023

regulate STRs. Staff surveyed neighboring cities and learned that a majority of them do not allow STRs. The City also retained a STR compliance consultant, Rentalscape, which determined that as of June 2022 there were 29 active STRs operating in the City, including 9 STRs where only a room is rented, with the remainder of the dwelling occupied by the homeowner, and 20 STRs where the entire dwelling is rented.

The City Council further discussed STRs on August 23, 2022 and September 27, 2022, when the Council directed staff to conduct a resident survey regarding STRs. The resident survey, considered by the City Council on February 28, 2023, indicated that 71% of respondents support a ban on STRs. At the February 28 meeting, the City Council directed City staff and the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance (Attachment 1) confirming that STRs are prohibited uses in all residential areas, zones, and districts in the City of Laguna Hills.

BACKGROUND:

Short-Term Rentals (STRs) are residential properties, or portions thereof, that are rented for transient lodging or transient occupancy of less than 30 consecutive calendar days.

At the regular City Council meeting on June 28, 2022, Mayor Wheeler introduced Agenda Item 8.1.1, Short-Term Rentals, and invited the public to address the City Council on the item. Ten members of the public spoke in opposition to STRs, primarily homeowners within the Nellie Gail Ranch residential community living in proximity to 25166 Rockridge Road, a residence where an STR was used as an extremely large party house on June 18, 2022, which created significant public nuisance conditions. Following public testimony and City Council discussion, the Council directed staff to research and explore options to regulate STRs.

Staff provided an update to the City Council on August 23, 2022 and September 27, 2022, at which time the City Council directed staff to further research the issue and to conduct a survey (Attachment 2) of the City’s residents regarding STRs. On February 28, 2023, the Council considered the resident survey, received public testimony, and directed City staff and the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance (Attachment 1) confirming that STRs are prohibited uses in the City. The February 28, 2023, City Council meeting minutes and staff report are provided in Attachments 3 and 4, respectively.

City Survey
Staff researched how other cities currently address STRs. Four neighboring cities have banned STRs, including: Aliso Viejo in 2015; Lake Forest in 2017; Laguna Niguel in 2017; and Irvine in 2018. Dana Point and Anaheim prohibit new STRs, but existing STRs are allowed to continue operating until the owner elects to cease operations, or until the property is sold. Dana Point and Anaheim collect TOT for the existing STRs. Fountain Valley is the most recent city to ban all STRs.

Resident STR Survey Results
Staff prepared and conducted an on-line STR survey with both multiple-choice and open-ended questions. The survey was launched on November 14, 2022, ran for 18 days, and closed on December 1, 2022. Residents were advised about the STR survey using a resident email list, posting to social media (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram), and with a press release posted on the City’s website. The City received a total of 140 survey responses, with 71% of respondents supporting a ban on STRs within the City. A summary of the resident survey results is provided in Attachment 2, including responses to an open-ended question asking residents for additional comments.

Laguna Hills Short-Term Rentals
To better understand the scope and scale of STRs operating in Laguna Hills in violation of the City’s Development and Zoning Code, staff engaged Rentalscape, an STR compliance consultant. According to the Rentalscape data, there were a total of 29 STRs located in Laguna Hills as of June 2022. Eight of the STRs are single rooms available for rent within a home occupied by the homeowner or tenant. One of the STRs is a detached accessory structure located on a property with the primary dwelling occupied by the homeowner. One of the STRs is an apartment home, two of the STRs are townhomes, and 17 of the STRs are single-family homes.

A total of 14 of the STRs are located in communities with no homeowners’ association or property management. Eight of the STRs are located within the Nellie Gail Ranch community, three of the STRs are located within the Laguna Village townhome community in North Laguna Hills, one of the STRs is located in the Crestline townhome community at Moulton and Alicia Parkways, and one STR is located in the Quail Creek condominium community at Moulton Parkway and La Paz Road. One of the STRs is located in the Alicia Plaza apartment community at Paseo de Valencia and Laguna Hills Drive, and one STR is located in the Reata apartment building in Oakbrook Village.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Department reports that since January 2018 calls for service, typically for loud party calls, were made for ten of the City’s 29 STRs, with repeat calls for four of the ten.

Negative Secondary Impacts to Residential Neighborhoods Prior to the advent of the online marketplace and the various web-based hosting sites (e.g., Airbnb, VRBO, HomeAway, Travelocity, etc.) that provide for residential-based STR of whole homes or individual rooms within homes, the concept of transient lodging was associated almost entirely with commercial hotels and motels. With the increase in popularity and availability of hosting platforms, the City began monitoring the STR phenomenon in approximately 2016. Unlike cities that are a big draw for vacationers like beach cities or a resort city like Anaheim (with Disneyland Resort), Laguna Hills has not attracted a high level of interest in STRs. For this reason, the City (until recently) had not experienced significant neighborhood conflicts that often are associated with STRs in these other cities.

Recently, however, significant complaints from Laguna Hills residents have arisen and the potential for STR guests to disrupt the quality of life for neighboring properties has increased. In part, this is due to the fact that vacationers tend to stay up later than permanent residents conversing, playing music, dancing, enjoying backyard amenities (e.g., pools and spas), etc., which can be of concern to adjacent and surrounding residents. Even more problematic, in many instances (and all too frequently) residential dwellings are specifically rented as a STR for the sole purpose of throwing large parties, which create significant negative secondary impacts as well as nuisance conditions.

These so-called "nuisance conditions" can reduce the quality of life for permanent residents, particularly when they occur on a regular basis.

Moreover, there also is potential for much greater impacts to neighboring properties with certain STR operations that are either not well-managed, or that operate as commercial entertainment event facilities. Such operations often include large gatherings of guests for parties, birthday parties, anniversaries, weddings, or similar "entertainment events." In addition to the above noted "nuisance conditions," these business operations can also create traffic and parking demands that exceed the capacity of the property to accommodate. They often may include amplified music, live music, increased trash, public urination, loitering outside on the street by event attendees, as well as potential criminal conduct.

Recently, one neighborhood's concerns regarding the City's monitoring approach regarding STR operations (and, more specifically, an STR property located at 25166 Rockridge Road) became readily apparent. According to correspondence and public testimony received, the subject STR generated significant negative secondary impacts on the neighborhood and public nuisance conditions, including excessive noise and parking impacts, trash, loitering, public urination, the blocking of streets, smoking, and suspicious activity; all of which the complaining residents believed were not conducive to the quiet enjoyment of their residential neighborhood. The adversely affected residents expressed opposition to the notion of transient occupancy of STRs by unknown persons; they did not believe this type of business operation was consistent with the City's idea of "community" or "neighborhood."
City Council Deliberations
After receiving public input on June 28, 2022, August 23, 2022, and September 27, 2022, on February 28, 2023, the City Council deliberated and voted, unanimously, to provide direction to City staff and the City Attorney to further research this issue and to prepare an ordinance confirming the prohibition of STRs in all residential zones in the City. The Council generally shared the concerns of the numerous residents who spoke in opposition to allowing the operation of STR commercial businesses in residential areas and neighborhoods. A copy of the proposed Ordinance confirming the prohibition of short-term rental of any residential dwelling, dwelling unit, or room in a dwelling in all residential areas, zones, and districts in the City is attached hereto as Attachment 1.

STR Ordinance Penalties
Pursuant to Section 1-32.010 of the Municipal Code, violations of City ordinances are punishable as misdemeanors, which carry a penalty of up to $1,000 fine and/or six months in County jail. The $1,000 fine is the maximum permissible fine for an ordinance violation in a general law city, pursuant to Government Code section 36901.

Furthermore, Section 1-32.060 of the Municipal Code provides that in addition to the foregoing penalties, violations of City ordinances are subject to administrative fines or penalties in an amount established by resolution of the City Council in accordance with Government Code section 53069.4. Section 1-36.050.C provides that for purposes of administrative fines, each and every day a violation exists constitutes a separate and distinct offense that is subject to the fine.

City Council Resolution No. 2018-09-11-1 establishes the administrative citation fines and penalties for violations of current regulations in the Municipal Code. Upon adoption of the proposed STR ordinance, staff will bring a resolution to add an administrative citation penalty for violations of the STR ordinance. The proposed penalty will be set at $1,000 per violation, per each day that the violation exists. If adopted, the first citation for an illegal STR may be in the amount of $2,000 in the event that the City finds evidence that a property owner illegally advertised their residential property for rent as a STR, and for the rental of the property as an illegal STR. Then, the illegal STR will be subject to $1,000 fines for each day that the violation exists, and additional $1,000 fines if the property owner continues to advertise the illegal STR.

CEQA FINDINGS:

The adoption of the proposed Ordinance is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Title 14 California Code of Regulations Section 15378, and further, even if it were considered a project, the proposed amendment is exempt pursuant to Title 14 California Code of Regulations Section 15061(b)(3), in that it proposes no activity that may have a significant effect on the environment and will not cause a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

WHEREAS, short-term rentals (STRs) are a prohibited use under the City’s Zoning and Development Code (Title 9 of the Laguna Hills Municipal Code); Section 9-10.050 of the Laguna Hills Municipal Code provides that, “Uses not specified in the master list or within the chapter for each zone are prohibited”; because short-term rentals are not an enumerated use under the Zoning and Development Code, they are prohibited; and WHEREAS, STRs do not conform with the intended use of dwelling units as defined under the City’s Zoning and Development Code; Chapter 9-04 (Definitions) of the Laguna Hills Municipal Code defines “Dwelling unit” as “one or more rooms, designed, occupied, or intended for occupancy as a separate living quarter with cooking, sleeping, and sanitary facilities provided within the dwelling unit for the exclusive use of a singlefamily housekeeping unit.”, and includes in the definition of “Single-family housekeeping unit” the provision that “occupancy of the dwelling unit is stable as opposed to transient”; because STRs constitute transient occupancy of a dwelling unit, they are prohibited; and WHEREAS, notwithstanding the prohibition against STRs, the City has received numerous noise and neighborhood disturbance complaints and has become aware of various residential properties being rented as STRs over the years and must now directly confirm that their operations in the City are prohibited; and WHEREAS, the City of Laguna Hills has been monitoring the STR phenomenon since 2016 to determine whether such commercial businesses operating within residential areas and neighborhoods are consistent with the City's vision for residential character and quality of life as reflected in the General Plan pertaining to Respect for Existing Neighborhoods, particularly Policy LU-2.4: Protect existing neighborhoods from the encroachment of incompatible activities and land uses because the City values the character of its existing neighborhoods, as they contribute to the extraordinary quality of life in the City; and Policy N-1.3: Limit future residential and other noise sensitive land uses in areas exposed to high levels of noise / utilize strategies to reduce noise experienced by sensitive uses at the point of reception; and WHEREAS, the City Council reviewed and discussed the issue of STRs operating as businesses within residential areas, zones, and districts at its regular City Council meetings of June 28, 2022, August 23, 2022, September 27, 2022, and February 28, 2023, and invited interested members of the public to address the City Council on the issue; and

WHEREAS, the conduct of STR business operations within residential areas and neighborhoods presents significant potential for creating negative secondary impacts and unreasonable nuisance conditions on surrounding residential properties related to noise, traffic, safety, parking, etc., and threatens an essential feature that defines the residential neighborhood character (i.e., knowing one's neighbors and developing neighborly relations with them); and
WHEREAS, the potential for further degradation of residential neighborhood character throughout neighborhoods in the City of Laguna Hills due to several surrounding cities already having adopted STR prohibition ordinances or interpreting their municipal codes as prohibiting STRs, including the neighboring cities of Aliso Viejo, Lake Forest, Laguna Niguel, and Irvine, plus others throughout the greater Orange County area, renders those remaining cities in the county that allow STRs "opportunity areas" for expansion of the commercial STR residential business model. It has now become evident that without clarifying the prohibition against STRs and providing for the express prohibition of STRs by the City, the City will become such an “opportunity area,” which potentially could result in accelerated and further expansion of numerous STRs within individual residential areas and neighborhoods in the City over time; and WHEREAS, STRs are associated with well-documented negative secondary impacts which have a detrimental effect on the public health, safety, and general welfare of residential areas and neighborhoods, including but not limited to, additional traffic, excessive noise, disorderly conduct, overcrowding, vandalism, parking problems, accumulation of refuse, crime, and the overall degradation of a neighborhood's residential character and quality; and
WHEREAS, the City has received numerous complaints about nuisance conditions and negative secondary impacts caused by STRs operating in single-family residential neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, in declaring a housing crisis in the State of California, the Legislature has determined that the lack of housing is a critical problem that threatens the economic, environmental, and social quality of life in California. The City must preserve its available housing stock for residents and long-term renters who contribute to the City’s cultural diversity, quality and character of its existing single and multi-family residential neighborhoods, and economic vitality. STRs remove housing stock that could otherwise be made available for traditional rental housing, diminish the inventory in the for-sale housing market, and contribute to the State’s declared housing crisis; and WHEREAS, STRs constitute a commercial use of residential property, similar to other transient lodging accommodation uses such as hotels, motels, and bed and breakfasts. The commercial (non-residential) nature of STRs constitutes an incompatible use within residentially zoned areas and districts, with the potential to create a host of undesirable spillover effects, which ultimately negatively impacts the quality and character of neighborhoods. Although STRs are currently a prohibited use because they are not a specific enumerated use within the City’s Zoning and Development Code, this issue of

compatibility between residential and commercial uses is addressed by the existing prohibition of bed and breakfasts and hotel operations in all residentially zoned districts.

This ordinance ensures that the separation of commercial business uses and residential uses is clearly maintained within all residential areas, zones, and districts; and WHEREAS, this ordinance is adopted pursuant to the authority granted by the California Constitution and State law, including but not limited to Article XI, Section 7, of the California Constitution.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAGUNA HILLS, CALIFORNIA, HEREBY ORDAINS AS FOLLOWS:

7.3.1.b
Packet Pg. 117 Attachment: Attachment 2 – Resident STR Survey Results (3120 : Short-Term Rental Ordinance) Short term rentals in homes do nothing but cause disruption and are a business.

If we co to us to allow they should be taxed to cover cost of additional law enforcement.

They haven't been a problem.

Short term rentals should not be allowed in our city. These are unregulated by the rental websites and they have no control over the renters, safety of the neighborhood, do not enforce their own rules/contractual obligations, and the fines imposed are minimal compared to the nuisances the neighbors have to endure. Renters are often loud past the time limit, have large parties, disturb the residents, and bring crime into the neighborhoods. At a bare minimum there should be a 30+ day limit on rentals if permitted and they should have to file for a permit. Our surrounding cities already limit or prohibit STR's (AV, LN, SJC, Irvine, LB,LF, Tustin 31+ day ). There should be No Grandfathered STRs allowed. Please help keep our city safe, beautiful and a great place for families by prohibiting short term rentals.

Short term rentals bring noise and security concerns. If it's short term there is no pride of ownership. Brings property values down. We want to live in homes where we know our neighbors.

How about minimum 2 or 3 weeks? Not sure about 30 days.

Noise impacts, trash or otherwise impacting the visual appeal of the neighborhood, and parking impacts.

Leave property owners alone.

There seems to be a direct correlation between the care people give their property and the time they spend it that property. ie. owners take better care of their property and community than renters do. This seems evident when looking at Lake Forest.

Laguna Hills is a community of families raising their kids and trying to live the best quality of life. Short term rentals have no place in family neighborhoods. With increased crime why invite more opportunities for crime and noise? As residents we have a right to live in a quiet calm area where we don't have to worry about revolving door parties and increased safety concerns that come along with short term rentals. There is a reason cities are not allowing these.

HOAs have tried to impose restrictions in bylaws, however, due to state laws, not much can be done with existing Short term rental businesses There is a house on our street that is on Air BNB and a few months ago a motorcycle club rented it out and the next morning they were riding up and down our street and revving their engines for the longest time. Very unsafe and too loud. This is a family neighborhood and usually quiet, which we all love. Another time they rented to someone who threw a party and there were tons of cars and young people out in the street and partying. Not something we should have to deal with in our neighborhood! Turning a single family dwelling into a small hotel is not an intended use or what is was zoned for. The constant transient nature of people, vehicles and party rental trucks a STR in itself causes makes neighborhood watch impossible. Use of the Sheriff to police unruly events is using a resource for a purpose it was not intended for. Hotels exist within our City for the intended purposes and the City collects the appropriate taxes for their use. There is no benefit to allow STRs to exist other than the greed of the individual property owner who wants to use their property outside the normal limits.

Tax them like hotels with TOT. It's not fair for our hotel owners to compete with Airbnb and VRBO that don't have TOT tax on them.

I don't see a problem with short term rentals in my neighborhood. What concerns me more are the half way homes housing people in drug recovery.

There are many just in my neighborhood.

Plenty of hotels in the area to accommodate visitors especially in the area proposed.

Thank you for considering the concerns of the residents.

Short term rentals do not fit into a community with young children. We need to have homes available to families and people who want to be part of a community for a long time.

Short-term rentals are detrimental to the community in which they reside - from safety/security, to noise, trash, lowering property values, and overall disruption to the sense of community are just a few of the reasons Laguna Hills must follow our local cities like Irvine, Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley (to name a few) ...and ban STR's
Absolutely not in favor for STR's in Laguna Hills. The very big reason is safty & security, not to mention loud noises, trash all over on the street & adjoining streets. It's been scary due to weapon sensors have been used & guests urinating on the streets Last weekend the airbnb next door had 25 cars parked in our cul-de-sac overnight and had bright lights and equipment in the yard and driveway because they were filming a movie.

I know the residents next to the short term rentals in our neighborhood are living a nightmare. I feel strongly that those, as well as recovery houses, have no place here. Safety and crime are becoming larger issues every passing month and these do not impact our quality of life in a positive way.

People move to Laguna Hills to be part of a residential community, not in the middle of a party town.

It's the party aspect that's the issue. Noise trash security concerns Most cities are banning them, and for specific reasons. Hopefully they will be disallowed in all neighborhoods.

We already have a shortage of homes, short term rentals just encourage investors to purchase homes and rent out short term. It takes properties away from people who actually want to live here.

I lived a couple of doors down from an vacation rental and the noise was unbearable people are on vacation and wanting to have fun so they stay up late, play music, talk loud etc. The police was often being called on the vacationers.

Am aware of several â€œcare/ rehab facilitiesâ€ in my neighborhood and do not want those either. They are disruptive in all ways listed abovenoise,safety, parking etc.

We already allow drug rehab homes to be our neighbors so why would it be worse? We've had super loud arguments, people vomiting over the balcony, loud music and people yelling down to us when we are in our backyard ALL from a dry rehab, so no, a short term rental really isn't a big deal.

This creates an unsafe feeling in an otherwise quiet and safe neighborhood. It was never our intention to live near short term rentals with constant turnover and limited accountability. I'm concerned for the safety of my children and also worried about noise issues.

7.3.1.b
Packet Pg. 119 Attachment: Attachment 2 – Resident STR Survey Results (3120 : Short-Term Rental Ordinance) Between 5 year unfinished construction, renters who don't take care of the house or lawn and now hoards of people filling a short term rental (20 cars) the value of homes on our street has to be impacted. Shame on the HOA and city for allowing this! We believe that short term rentals create an unnecessary security (gun violence) and noise nuisance for permeant homeowners who have worked their whole lives to purchase a single-family home in order to enjoy a peaceful and secure lifestyle. Short term rental owners are profiting at the expense of their neighbor's well-being and there can be no good justification to support such a business in a residential neighborhood.

The short term rental doesn't even have to be close to you to hear very load noise - the sound travels through the backyards etc.

The city of Encinitas has quite stringent requirements for short term rentals, which might be worth looking at We saw first hand the impunity of the participants at the party in Nellie Gail. Very unsafe for all neighbors.

I would actually like reasonable regulations for short-term rentals (e.g. limitations on number of occupants, vehicles, noise restrictions, etc.), but not through a permit process. Limiting short term rentals by requiring permits opens the way for political favoritism. Property owners should have relatively free rein to operate their properties as long as they are not disturbing neighbors so as to be a nuisance.

The noise and trash are also concerns, for example current weekends at the park when empty marijuana debris is left on the trails . There are plenty of commercial venues to rent--why rent out homes in a residential community? Laguna Hills is not a resort town. It is a neighborhood. Each development has its own flavor and personality.

Short term renters have no vested interest in the community - parties, trash, security issues typically accompany short term renters. Vandalism following parties is not unusual.

We deserve to live a peaceful life, we pay for this peace of mind, with short term rental, out quality of life is worse than living in apartment We live in Nellie Gail and the short term rentals are so disruptive and negatively impact our neighborhood.

Short-term rentals in Nellie Gail have become increasingly disturbing I believe STR can be run responsibly with rules. Our family have rented STR to be near us. We used to run a STR. We had quiet hours, parking restrictions, no parties, no loud outside noise and other rules plus we required 4 reviews that were positive. We never had an issue. I actually think with rules, STR can control their tenants more than Long Term.

Not good for our home prices.

All short term rentals need to be abolished

7.3.1.b
Packet Pg. 120 Attachment: Attachment 2 – Resident STR Survey Results (3120 : Short-Term Rental Ordinance) Very little complaints associated with sounds and partying in this area. The visitors is good for business in the area and this will also help grow the value of our properties much faster than other areas as a destination city. We live in an area people would want to visit. We should be proud of that and not discourage. We shouldn't be scared this is the new America people now can work from different locations and most these people are professionals post Covid. This is not your Vegas crowd. Keep that in mind. This is not a retirement community that is Laguna woods next door.

Noise and unruly crowd with large parties causing a lot of disturbance in neighborhood We had an issue on our street, where the renter was having a raging party. It was so out of control the police wouldn't even get involved.

It has been scary, horrible experiences on my street & adjacent streets. Trash is all over.... it's been loud with bad language & loud music. It is pretty scary when a person witnesses weapon sensor is being used at the party.

Very concerned about personal safety.

Short term rentals are prone to abuse by design. There's no sense of ownership, little to no sense of obligations by the renters to respect the sanctity of the neighborhood.

It's disruptive due to the number of strangers who come into the neighborhood. Drugs are often used in these rental party places and the noise is unacceptable. Please no short term rentals.

ISSUE: Short-Term Rentals
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council receive the survey results and provide direction to staff.

SUMMARY:

Short-term rentals (STRs) were discussed by the City Council at its June 28, 2022, meeting, with ten Nellie Gail Ranch residents complaining about a house party causing a nuisance in their community on June 18, 2022. The City Council directed staff to research the issue and explore options to regulate STRs. As discussed at the September 27, 2022, City Council meeting, Staff surveyed neighboring cities and learned a majority of them do not allow STRs. Staff also hired an STR compliance consultant that determined there is currently a total of 29 active STRs operating in the City: nine with only a room or portion of the property rented, and 20 with the entire property rented.

As further directed by City Council, staff conducted a resident survey, between November 14 and December 1, 2022, receiving 140 responses, including 71% in support of a ban on STRs. A summary of the resident survey results is provided in Attachment 1.

Staff also conducted a survey of the City’s Homeowner Associations (HOAs), with only one HOA allowing STRs and only two HOA’s aware of any STRs in their respective communities. A summary of the HOA survey results is provided in Attachment 2.

There are four regulatory options the City Council may elect to address STRs: take no action; adopt an ordinance banning STRs; regulate STRs; or regulate and tax STRs.

BACKGROUND:

Short-term rentals (STRs) are residential properties, or portions thereof, that are rented for transient occupancy of 30 or fewer days. At the regular City Council meeting on June 28, 2022, Mayor Wheeler introduced Agenda Item 8.1.1, Short-Term Rentals, and invited the public to address the City Council on the item. Ten members of the public spoke in opposition to STRs, primarily homeowners within the Nellie Gail Ranch living in proximity to an STR that was used as a party house on June 18, 2022.

As directed by the City Council, staff further researched the issue, including regulatory options, and returned to the Council on September 27, 2022. At that meeting, staff presented results of a City survey showing that a majority of neighboring cities do not allow STRs. Staff also hired STR compliance consultant Rentalscape, which determined there are currently 29 active STRs operating in the City, including nine STRs where only a room or portion of the property is rented, with the remainder of the property is occupied by the homeowner, and 20 STRs where the entire dwelling is rented out.

At the September 27, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council directed staff to conduct a survey of the City’s residents regarding STRs (see staff report and meeting minutes in Attachments 3 and 4, respectively).

DISCUSSION:

Resident Survey
At the September 27, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council directed staff to conduct a survey of the City’s residents regarding STRs. Staff prepared and conducted an on-line STR survey with both multiple-choice and open-ended questions. The survey was launched on November 14, 2022, ran for 18 days, and closed on December 1, 2022.

Residents were advised about the STR survey using a resident email list, posting to social media (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram), and with a press release posted on the City’s website. The City received a total of 140 survey responses, with 71% of respondents supporting a ban on STRs within the City. A summary of the resident survey results is provided in Attachment 1, including responses to an open-ended question asking residents for additional comments.

HOA Survey
Staff also conducted an informal telephone survey of the Homeowner Associations (HOAs) within the City, see results provided in Attachment 2. None of the responding HOAs allow STRs, and only two of the responding HOAs stated they are aware of any STRs in their respective communities, citing loud noise and parties as the primary concern.

Regulatory Options
There are four regulatory options available to the City Council:

1. Take No Action. Historically, the City has not regulated STRs, neither permitting nor prohibiting STRs. No STR permits have been granted and no transient occupancy tax (TOT) has been collected. It should be noted that staff’s current interpretation of the Development Code is that STRs are prohibited in the City because they are not specifically enumerated as an allowed use in the Development Code.

2. Adopt an Ordinance to Ban STRs. An ordinance banning STRs would prohibit STRs throughout the City. The ordinance may require an amortization period for existing STRs that were legally established.

3. Regulate STRs. This option would permit STRs under certain conditions, and in accordance with specific criteria, included and considered as part of an STR permit process.

4. Regulate and Tax STRs. In addition to an STR permit process, the City would collect transient occupancy tax (TOT), a 10% City tax applicable to all transient occupancy stays within the City.

If we co to us to allow they should be taxed to cover cost of additional law enforcement. They haven't been a problem. Short term rentals should not be allowed in our city. These are unregulated by the rental websites and they have no control over the renters, safety of the neighborhood, do not enforce their own rules/contractual obligations, and the fines imposed are minimal compared to the nuisances the neighbors have to endure. Renters are often loud past the time limit, have large parties, disturb the residents, and bring crime into the neighborhoods. At a bare minimum there should be a 30+ day limit on rentals if permitted and they should have to file for a permit. Our surrounding cities already limit or prohibit STR's (AV, LN, SJC, Irvine, LB,LF, Tustin 31+ day ). There should be No Grandfathered STRs allowed. Please help keep our city safe, beautiful and a great place for families by prohibiting short term rentals. Short term rentals bring noise and security concerns. If it's short term there is no pride of ownership. Brings property values down. We want to live in homes where we know our neighbors. How about minimum 2 or 3 weeks? Not sure about 30 days. Noise impacts, trash or otherwise impacting the visual appeal of the neighborhood, and parking impacts. Leave property owners alone. There seems to be a direct correlation between the care people give their property and the time they spend it that property. ie. owners take better care of their property and community than renters do. This seems evident when looking at Lake Forest.Laguna Hills is a community of families raising their kids and trying to live the best quality of life. Short term rentals have no place in family neighborhoods. With increased crime why invite more opportunities for crime and noise? As residents we have a right to live in a quiet calm area where we don't have to worry about revolving door parties and increased safety concerns that come along with short term rentals. There is a reason cities are not allowing these.HOAs have tried to impose restrictions in bylaws, however, due to state laws, not much can be done with existing Short term rental businesses There is a house on our street that is on Air BNB and a few months ago a motorcycle club rented it out and the next morning they were riding up and down our street and revving their engines for the longest time. Very unsafe and too loud. This is a family neighborhood and usually quiet, which we all love. Another time they rented to someone who threw a party and there were tons of cars and young people out in the street and partying. Not something we should have to deal with in our neighborhood!Turning a single family dwelling into a small hotel is not an intended use or what is was zoned for. The constant transient nature of people, vehicles and party rental trucks a STR in itself causes makes neighborhood watch impossible. Use of the Sheriff to police unruly events is using a resource for a purpose it was not intended for. Hotels exist within our City for the intended purposes and the City collects the appropriate taxes for their use. There is no benefit to allow STRs to exist other than the greed of the individual property owner who wants to use their property outside the normal limits.

Tax them like hotels with TOT. It's not fair for our hotel owners to compete with Airbnb and VRBO that don't have TOT tax on them.

I don't see a problem with short term rentals in my neighborhood. What concerns me more are the half way homes housing people in drug recovery. There are many just in my neighborhood. Plenty of hotels in the area to accommodate visitors especially in the area proposed. Thank you for considering the concerns of the residents. Short term rentals do not fit into a community with young children. We need to have homes available to families and people who want to be part of a community for a long time.Short-term rentals are detrimental to the community in which they reside - from safety/security, to noise, trash, lowering property values, and overall disruption to the sense of community are just a few of the reasons Laguna Hills must follow our local cities like Irvine, Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley (to name a few) ...and ban STR'sAbsolutely not in favor for STR's in Laguna Hills. The very big reason is safty & security, not to mention loud noises, trash all over on the street & adjoining streets. It's been scary due to weapon sensors have been used & guests urinating on the streetsLast weekend the airbnb next door had 25 cars parked in our cul-de-sac overnight and had bright lights and equipment in the yard and driveway because they were filming a movie. I know the residents next to the short term rentals in our neighborhood are living a nightmare. I feel strongly that those, as well as recovery houses, have no place here. Safety and crime are becoming larger issues every passing month and these do not impact our quality of life in a positive way. People move to Laguna Hills to be part of a residential community, not in the middle of a party town. It's the party aspect that's the issue. Noise trash security concerns Most cities are banning them, and for specific reasons. Hopefully they will be disallowed in all neighborhoods.We already have a shortage of homes, short term rentals just encourage investors to purchase homes and rent out short term. It takes properties away from people who actually want to live here.I lived a couple of doors down from an vacation rental and the noise was unbearable people are on vacation and wanting to have fun so they stay up late, play music, talk loud etc. The police was often being called on the vacationers.Am aware of several â€œcare/ rehab facilitiesâ€ ŝŶŵǇŶĞŝŐŚďŽƌŚŽŽĚĂŶĚĚŽŶŽƚǁĂŶƚƚŚŽƐĞĞŝƚŚĞƌ͘dŚĞǇĂƌĞĚŝƐƌƵƉƚŝǀĞŝŶĂůůǁĂǇƐůŝƐƚĞĚĂďŽǀĞͲ noise,safety, parking etc. We already allow drug rehab homes to be our neighbors so why would it be worse? We've had super loud arguments, people vomiting over the balcony, loud music and people yelling down to us when we are in our backyard ALL from a dry rehab, so no, a short term rental really isn't a big deal.

I am very concerned about the parking impact, noise impact, safety, and security problems. I have had conversations with Nellie Gail neighbors who have had bad experiences with short-term renters on their streets.This creates an unsafe feeling in an otherwise quiet and safe neighborhood. It was never our intention to live near short term rentals with constant turnover and limited accountability. I'm concerned for the safety of my children and also worried about noise issues.

Shame on the HOA and city for allowing this!We believe that short term rentals create an unnecessary security (gun violence) and noise nuisance for permeant homeowners who have worked their whole lives to purchase a single-family home in order to enjoy a peaceful and secure lifestyle. Short term rental owners are profiting at the expense of their neighbor's well-being and there can be no good justification to support such a business in a residential neighborhood.The short term rental doesn't even have to be close to you to hear very load noise - the sound travels through the backyards etc.

The city of Encinitas has quite stringent requirements for short term rentals, which might be worth looking atWe saw first hand the impunity of the participants at the party in Nellie Gail. Very unsafe for all neighbors.

I moved here 3 years ago from my home in Danta CA Ynez. In 2015 a vacation rental opened next door to me. It was a constant nuisance . Think about it . It's a vacation rental and it becomes a party house . That's the only reason I moved from a home I loved for over 20 years ..Hotels do no belong in our neighborhoods . I was shocked to find that Nellie Gail had no restrictions .,Large home across street currently short term rental. Lots of cars every week, noise, parties and strangers coming and going all times of the night. Feel very unsafe. So sad that Nellie Gail and Laguna Hills allows this type of activity. I would actually like reasonable regulations for short-term rentals (e.g. limitations on number of occupants, vehicles, noise restrictions, etc.), but not through a permit process. Limiting short term rentals by requiring permits opens the way for political favoritism. Property owners should have relatively free rein to operate their properties as long as they are not disturbing neighbors so as to be a nuisance.The noise and trash are also concerns, for example current weekends at the park when empty marijuana debris is left on the trails . There are plenty of commercial venues to rent--why rent out homes in a residential community?Laguna Hills is not a resort town. It is a neighborhood. Each development has its own flavor and personality. Short term renters have no vested interest in the community - parties, trash, security issues typically accompany short term renters. Vandalism following parties is not unusual. We deserve to live a peaceful life, we pay for this peace of mind, with short term rental, out quality of life is worse than living in apartmentWe live in Nellie Gail and the short term rentals are so disruptive and negatively impact our neighborhood.Short-term rentals in Nellie Gail have become increasingly disturbing I believe STR can be run responsibly with rules. Our family have rented STR to be near us. We used to run a STR. We had quiet hours, parking restrictions, no parties, no loud outside noise and other rules plus we required 4 reviews that were positive. We never had an issue. I actually think with rules, STR can control their tenants more than Long Term.Not good for our home prices. All short term rentals need to be abolished

The visitors is good for business in the area and this will also help grow the value of our properties much faster than other areas as a destination city. We live in an area people would want to visit. We should be proud of that and not discourage. We shouldn't be scared this is the new America people now can work from different locations and most these people are professionals post Covid. This is not your Vegas crowd. Keep that in mind. This is not a retirement community that is Laguna woods next door. Noise and unruly crowd with large parties causing a lot of disturbance in neighborhoodWe had an issue on our street, where the renter was having a raging party. It was so out of control the police wouldn't even get involved. It has been scary, horrible experiences on my street & adjacent streets. Trash is all over.... it's been loud with bad language & loud music. It is pretty scary when a person witnesses weapon sensor is being used at the party.Very concerned about personal safety. Short term rentals are prone to abuse by design. There's no sense of ownership, little to no sense of obligations by the renters to respect the sanctity of the neighborhood.It's disruptive due to the number of strangers who come into the neighborhood. Drugs are often used in these rental party places and the noise is unacceptable. Please no short term rentals.

ISSUE: Short-Term Rentals
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council direct staff regarding regulatory options for short-term rentals.

SUMMARY:

Short-term rentals (STRs) were discussed by the City Council at its June 28, 2022, meeting, with ten Nellie Gail Ranch residents complaining about a house party causing a nuisance on June 18, 2022, at 25166 Rockridge Road. The City Council directed staff to research the issue and explore options to regulate STRs. Staff surveyed neighboring cities and learned a majority of them do not allow STRs. Staff also hired STR compliance consultant Rentalscape, which determined there are currently 29 active STRs operating in the City, including nine STRs where only a room or portion of the property is rented, with the remainder occupied by the homeowner, and 20 STRs where the entire dwelling is rented. There are four regulatory options to address STRs, the City Council may elect to allow, prohibit, regulate, or regulate and tax STRs.

BACKGROUND:

Short-term rentals (STRs) are residential properties, or portions thereof, that are rented for transient occupancy of 30 or fewer days. At the regular City Council meeting on June 28, 2022, Mayor Wheeler introduced Agenda Item 8.1.1, Short-Term Rentals, and invited the public to address the City Council on the item. Ten members of the public spoke in opposition to STRs, primarily homeowners within the Nellie Gail Ranch estate residential community living in proximity to 25166 Rockridge Road, an STR that was

used as a party house on June 18, 2022. Following public testimony and City Council discussion, the Council directed staff to research and explore options to regulate STRs.

Staff provided an update to the City Council on August 23, 2022 (see Staff report and meeting minutes in Attachments 1 and 2, respectively).

DISCUSSION:

Regulatory Options
A confidential City Attorney memo was provided to the City Council detailing issues and concerns related to STRs. In summary, there are four regulatory options available to the City Council:

1. Allow STRs. This option maintains the status quo position wherein the City does not regulate STRs, no permits are granted and no transient occupancy tax (TOT) is collected.

2. Ban/Prohibit STRs. A ban would prohibit STRs, either City-wide or in specific sections of the City. A ban could also be applied to different types of STRs, such as STRs where the entire property is rented, compared to STRs occupied by the property owner, where typically only a room or minority portion of the home or property is rented.

3. Regulate STRs. This option would permit STRs under certain conditions, and in accordance with specific criteria, included and considered as part of an STR permit process.

4. Regulate and Tax STRs. In addition to an STR permit process, the City would collect transient occupancy tax (TOT), a 10% City tax applicable to all transient occupancy stays within the City.

Similar to Laguna Hills, Mission Viejo allows STRs with no permit process. Newport Beach also allows STRs, but caps the total number of allowed STRs at 1,550, with a waitlist established if and when the maximum number is realized. Newport Beach requires a permit process and collects TOT for all STRs.

Laguna Hills Short-Term Rentals
To better understand the scope and scale of STRs in Laguna Hills, staff engaged Rentalscape, an STR compliance consultant. According to the Rentalscape data, there is currently a total of 29 STRs located in Laguna Hills. Eight of the STRs are single rooms available for rent within a home occupied by the homeowner or tenant. One of the STRs is a detached accessory structure located on a property with the primary dwelling occupied by the homeowner. One of the STRs is an apartment home, two of the STRs are townhomes, and 17 of the STRs are single-family homes.

A total of 14 of the STRs are located in communities with no homeowner’s association or property management. Eight of the STRs are located within the Nellie Gail Ranch community, three of the STRs are located within the Laguna Village townhome community in North Laguna Hills, one of the STRs is located in the Crestline townhome community at Moulton and Alicia Parkways, and one STR is located in the Quail Creek condominium community at Moulton Parkway and La Paz Road. One of the STRs is located in the Alicia Plaza apartment community at Paseo de Valencia and Laguna Hills Drive, and one STR is located in the Reata apartment building in Oakbrook Village. A location map is provided as Attachment 3.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Department reports that, since January 2018, calls for service, typically for a Loud Party, were made for ten of the City’s 29 STRs, with repeat calls for four of the ten.

ISSUE: Short-Term Rentals
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council receive the staff report and direct staff to continue researching Short-Term Rentals, returning to the City Council for discussion at a later date.

SUMMARY:

Short Term Rentals (STRs) were discussed by the City Council at its June 28, 2022, meeting, with ten residents complaining about a house party causing a nuisance on June 18, 2022, at 25166 Rockridge Road. The City Council directed staff to research the issue and explore options to regulate STRs. This report provides a brief update summarizing Staff’s ongoing effort. Staff will return to the Council at a later date for a full discussion regarding STRs.

implementation of a business license program within the City.” This report is an update on the progress made to date with regard to STRs.

DISCUSSION:

Issues related to STRs have been discussed from time to time by the City Council. A confidential City Attorney memo was provided to the City Council detailing past issues and concerns related to STRs. In summary, the memo discusses issues related to whether the City can: 1) Permit STRs; 2) Ban/prohibit STRs; 3) Regulate STRs through a permit process; and 4) Regulate and tax STRs. The issues discussed in the City Attorney memo are being researched by staff and will be brought back to Council for discussion at a later date.

Staff’s initial research includes discussions with neighboring cities, researching related state law, and better understanding STRs in Laguna Hills, including the number and type of STRs, how often they are utilized, and at what rates. For assistance in this regard, staff has engaged a third-party vendor that works with cities to identify, track, measure, and manage STRs, including site and property owner information, booking history and availability, and revenue generated by the STRs. Staff will report back to the Council with these metrics when available.

With regard to the specific Nellie Gail STR discussed at the June 28, 2022, City Council meeting, located at 25166 Rockridge Road, City staff has discussed with the property owner the multiple nuisance complaints received from the residents regarding the June 18, 2022, house party, and the City’s expectations that similar violations will not occur at the property in the future. The property owner has indicated that these types of events will be prohibited. The property owner also indicated that they met with the Nellie Gail Ranch Owners Association (NGROA) and explained the same.

Coincidentally, on June 28, 2022, STR site Airbnb officially codified a permanent ban on party houses, with consequences for violators including suspension to full removal from the platform. VRBO has a similar policy in place to prohibit properties from advertising when house parties have been allowed to become a nuisance.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council receive and file the 2022 Laguna Hills Police Services Annual Report.

SUMMARY:

In 2022, City Council requested Police Services to provide an Annual Report for 2022 regarding public safety in the community. Overall, local issues continue to reflect regional, state, and national trends. The City’s local police services, as provided by the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, continues to ensure the city is a safe community.

The Laguna Hills Police Services 2022 Annual Report (Attachment A).

BACKGROUND:
2022 Laguna Hills Polices Services Annual Report
For the last thirty years, the City of Laguna Hills has contracted with the Orange County Sheriff’s Department for its law enforcement needs. Laguna Hills Police Services is responsible for public safety and general law enforcement within the City, including patrol services, traffic enforcement, and criminal investigations. Presented for City Council information is the attached Police Services Annual Report for 2022.

Laguna Hills Police Services consists of a dedicated staff of one captain, five sergeants, two investigators, eighteen deputies, two Community Services Officers and one Crime Prevention Specialist. The deputy roles and responsibilities include General Law

Enforcement (Patrol), Traffic Enforcement (Motorcycle Deputy), School Resource Officer, Behavioral Health Liaison Officer, Special Enforcement Team, and Directed Enforcement Team.

The greater Orange County Sheriff’s Department works hard to mitigate crime and ensure public safety in our City, as well. Many divisions and specialty details work closely with Laguna Hills patrol deputies to prevent, deter, and effectively respond to criminal activity. They provide a wide array of law enforcement resources that help protect our residents and ensure safety within our community. An undeniable benefit of the current contracting model for Police Services is the vast amount of resources that can be made available to the City on an emergency or scheduled basis.

Under normal circumstances, all communities experience some level of criminal activity, which is the primary focus of law enforcement. Over the last year, there have been shifts in crime trends throughout southern California. Noticeably, increases in automobile thefts, catalytic converter thefts, mail theft, identity theft, family violence, assaults, driving under the influence (DUI) violations, narcotics violations, and gang related activity. Our City has also experienced these fluctuations in crime trends throughout our community.

A few highlights from the past year statistics are as follows as are further detailed in the attached Annual Report. Deputies responded to a total of 14,951 calls for service, an increase from 2021. Other notable statistics include the total number of arrests made this calendar year. These include: 205 Street Arrests; 467 Citation Arrests; and 105 Warrant Arrests, for a total of 777 arrests to date. We have experienced a significant increase in Citation Arrests from the previous year and expect this trend to continue into the next calendar year. The majority of Citation Arrests are related to narcotics violations occurring throughout the community and increased proactive measures by Police Services to address those emerging trends.

Over the last year, we saw an increase in gang activity primarily related to vandalism, graffiti, narcotics violations, and assaults, such as fighting between rival gang members.

In response to this activities, Laguna Hills Police Services, in collaboration with Sheriff’s Investigations and a variety of specialty enforcement units, increased patrol checks, enforcement activities, and surveillance in the region. This included both uniformed deputies in marked patrol vehicles and undercover deputies in unmarked vehicles. The Gang Enforcement Team (GET) was fully engaged in our operations and conducted saturation patrols in and around the Community Center and Sports Complex and

2022 Laguna Hills Polices Services Annual Report

adjacent residential communities, specifically targeting gang related criminal activity.

On a positive note, the City experienced a significant decrease in enforcement actions related to homeless activity. Total arrests and citations related to homeless activity decreased in the year of 2022. This is directly attributable to the proactive measures taken by Police Services to address these concerns through a combination of outreach and enforcement efforts, including the City’s contracted services with Mercy House.

Volunteers (Reserves, Professional Services Responders, and Explorers) are a key resource for assistance and cost reduction. The use of Reserves throughout the year resulted in a cost savings of $43,629.30 for the City. The use of Professional Services Responders (PSRs) also played a significant role to our operations, which resulted in a cost savings of $19,866.00 for the City. The Explorers played a valuable role in our operations, which resulted in a cost savings of $5,940.00. Laguna Hills has enjoyed a very active Explorer Program over the years and we look forward to continuing the program.

Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) Program
An additional investigative resource and deterrent to criminal activity that was added to the City in 2021 is the ALPR program.

Flock Safety Inc. is an ALPR vendor who provides ALPR system services to many agencies, municipalities, and private entities throughout the nation. Currently, Flock Safety provides ALPR services for the Sheriff’s contract cities of Stanton, Lake Forest, Dana Point, and Laguna Hills. Flock Safety is currently in negotiations with several other cities throughout Orange County.

The City of Laguna Hills entered into a contract agreement with Flock Safety Inc. in the year of 2021 to provide a fixed ALPR System as part of the City’s overall public safety efforts. The initial contract included the installation of ten ALPRs at strategic locations throughout the City.

In addition, Flock Safety Inc. contracted with the Nellie Gail Homeowners Association (Laguna Hills) to provide twenty-four (24) Private ALPRs in the Nellie Gail community as part of their HOA Security Plan. Nellie Gail HOA shared access to their ALPR system with the City of Laguna Hills, allowing the two systems to work together simultaneously. This increased the overall effectiveness of the Laguna Hills system and essentially expanded the total number of fixed ALPRs deployed in Laguna Hills to forty-four (44).

The ALPR system is currently being used by a variety of units within the Sheriff’s Department. Some of these units include, but not limited to: Laguna Hills Police Services, Lake Forest Police Services, Dana Point Police Services, Directed Enforcement Team, Gang Enforcement Team, Investigations, and the Auto Theft Detail.

In the course of 2022, our staff has utilized this system as an investigative aid to help in the apprehension of suspects. This system has been an excellent addition to our community. Continued good results in the future are anticipated as use of the system continues to expand.

Public Safety Reminder

The men and women of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department diligently enforce the law without fear or favor, protecting lives and property. They patrol the streets of Laguna Hills twenty-four hours a day to secure and promote safety in the community, acting as peacekeepers, mediators, mentors, counselors, educators, and role models.

Recognizing the importance of police services within our community, staffing levels are set to meet the anticipated service needs of the city. Supervision consists of one captain, four patrol sergeants and one administrative sergeant. In 2022, there
were eighteen deputy positions allocated for Laguna Hills.

Fourteen deputies perform daily patrol functions,
two deputies (one motor, one patrol car) target
our traffic safety concerns, and one deputy is assigned as a School Resource Officer. Additionally, two Community Service Officers (CSO) and two Investigators actively work in the field to protect the community. Four patrol deputies have received
specialized training and fulfill ancillary duties as
Behavioral Health Liaison Deputies. As needed,
deputies may be reassigned from routine patrol
and deployed as a two-person Special Enforcement
Team or assigned as a member of a regional Directed Enforcement Team. These teams utilize contemporary policing principles to address emerging crimes trends in the area, enhance our Community Oriented Policing approach and improve the quality of life for all Laguna Hills residents.

Patrol Statistics
Emergency Response calls are all calls for service that have the potential of being a life threatening incident and require the deputies to respond using the vehicle’s lights and sirens. In 2013, the Sheriff’s Department began looking at all emergency response calls that took longer than 5 minutes, in order to ascertain and record the reason for a delay in response. It was found that the program responsible for calculating response times, did not take into account many situations that effect response times, including but not limited to calls that escalate or de-escalate in severity. Emergency calls are now calculated individually every month in order to report a more accurate “reconciled” response time.

The average reconciled response time during 2022 for Emergency Response calls was 4 minutes and 40 seconds.

Priority 2 calls include serious crimes that just occurred, incidents likely to escalate to a crime against a person, or any incident where a delay would impede further investigation or cause someone to be in jeopardy.

The average response time during 2022 for priority 2 calls was 12 minutes and 8 seconds from when the call was received to when a deputy arrives at the scene. *Calls for Service Statistics and call response times are calculated using the Orange County Sheriff’s Department’s CAD program and Operations Dashboard

Patrol Statistics
Consume Time is the measurement of time a deputy spends responding to calls for service, conducting self-initiated activities, finishing reports, attending briefings, lunch breaks, and other activities that consume a deputy’s time.

Preventative Patrol Time is time used by deputies to be visible for crime suppression, speak with people in the community, enforce traffic laws and look for criminal activity. A deputy visibly patrolling the city helps to deter crime, promotes a sense of security within the community, and provides faster response times to priority or life-threatening calls for service.

Laguna Hills Police Services responded to 14,915 calls for service in 2022. The total calls for service include calls that were generated through OCSD dispatch and by the patrol deputies’ self-initiated observations.
*Calls for Service Statistics are calculated using the Orange County Sheriff’s Department’s CAD program and Operations Dashboard *Preventative Patrol Time Statistics are received from OCSD Support Services & calculated.

There are different types of arrests. Street arrests are those made when the crime committed just occurred and it is a bookable offense. Suspects are then transported and booked at the Intake Release Center, in Santa Ana. Warrant arrests are those made for wanted suspects whose crimes occurred in the past and they were not immediately apprehended. Lastly, citation arrests are misdemeanor arrests for violations of law that just occurred where the offense is not immediately bookable at the jail facility. These suspects are issued a citation, and must promise to appear in court at a later date, and released at the scene.

This document was produced using raw crime reporting data. This report is intended to provide a general overview of monthly/yearly statistical data. Statistical values represented are likely not consistent with the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under the Summary Reporting System (SRS) requirements.

As of June 2021, the Orange County Sheriff’s Department (OCSD) is in the process of transitioning from the UCR SRS reporting protocols to the new UCR National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) requirements. Official statistical data will not be available until OCSD is NIBRS certified by the Department of Justice (DOJ).

FBI’s National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) has evolved into the national standard for reporting law enforcement crime data in the United States. The transition to NIBRS depicts a significant shift – and improvement – in how reported crime is measured and estimated by the federal government.

NIBRS data more accurately indicates the types of crimes addressed by police agencies. The broad range of the information collected in NIBRS will significantly improve the nation’s understanding of crime and public safety.

The data reflected in this report is preliminary and is not representative of UCR NIBRS requirements. Crime statistics are based on the date the crime or arrest occurred. All information and data listed in this report is considered preliminary and subject to further update and/or revision.

Crime Statistics
The task of compiling crime statistics rests with the Orange County Sheriff’s Department Support Services Division. Statistics and data are gathered, tabulated in accordance with the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program and then forwarded to the Department of Justice.

The UCR program divides offenses into two groups, Part I and Part II crimes. Part I crimes are violent or serious crimes that occur regularly, in all areas of the country, and are likely to be reported to the police. Part II crimes are all other crimes (not included in Part I crimes) where someone can be arrested or issued a criminal citation.
*UCR Crime Statistics can be found on the FBI website: http://www.fbi.gov/.

OCSD reports UCR Crime Statistics to the DOJ on a monthly basis.

Investigations
The Sheriff’s Department continues to work hard to mitigate crime and ensure public safety in our contract cities. Many divisions and specialty details work closely with our patrol deputies to prevent, deter, and effectively respond to crime. Our Investigations Division consists of a Criminal Investigations Bureau and a Special Investigations Bureau. Together these bureaus investigate and suppress criminal activity related to general crimes, homicides, sex crimes, family violence, economic and computer crimes, narcotics abuse, street gangs, and vice activities. These bureaus also participate in local, state, and federal task forces that focus on major crimes such as human trafficking, drug trafficking, and money laundering.

Two (2) investigators are assigned directly to the City of Laguna Hills. Investigators write follow-up reports; examine crime scenes; interview victims, witnesses, and suspects; and present cases to the District Attorney’s Office for criminal filings. Investigators are highly trained and not only investigate crimes, but study patterns of criminal offenses in an effort to deter further criminal activity within the community.

Out of the 14,915 calls for service Laguna Hills Police Services responded to in 2022, it was determined 1,781 criminal offenses were committed. These cases were assigned to Investigators for additional follow-up. • Laguna Hills investigations was assigned 10% of Southwest Cases • Southwest Investigations is comprised of Aliso Viejo, Dana Point, Laguna Niguel, Laguna Hills, Laguna Woods, and San Juan Capistrano.

Traffic Enforcement
Motor Deputy
Motor Deputies’ primary duty is traffic and parking enforcement in the city. They monitor the traffic index and identify problem traffic areas throughout the city. They conduct traffic enforcement in problem areas such as dangerous intersections and those near the schools when children are being dropped off and picked up. They educate violators and issue citations to maximize traffic safety. They also investigate traffic collisions and write traffic collision reports or assist citizens with exchanging information to provide
to their insurance companies. Motor Deputies
are also utilized to handle or assist with calls for
service when patrol deputies are unavailable or
need assistance.

Motor Deputies throughout the department
work in a variety of capacities supporting the
County as a whole, and provide support to local
agencies, and special events within the Department. Motor Deputies assist with crowd control, traffic control by closing streets and intersections to secure areas as needed and assist with Mobile Field Force teams.

Traffic Enforcement
Community Services Officers
Laguna Hills has two Community Services Officers assigned to the City. Community Services Officers are non-sworn enforcement personnel whom are specifically trained to respond to and investigate traffic collisions. They provide the public and the City with timely, accurate, and complete reports which often carry significant personal liability for those involved or for the City. Their reports are routinely used in criminal prosecutions of Hit-and-Run, and DUI collisions and they are called upon as subject matter experts on traffic collision and parking provisions within the City. These officers are assigned to separate shifts to provide the best coverage for the City.

When they are not investigating traffic collisions they perform parking enforcement duties throughout the City and are routinely assigned to assist with traffic control, abatement of abandoned vehicles, assist deputies with traffic related duties and assist
with special events and assignments. Their invaluable specialty experience, training, and knowledge of traffic collisions and traffic enforcement matters uniquely qualifies and positions them to efficiently provide the highest level of service for the public which relieves
Patrol and Motor Deputies of these time consuming tasks and allows them to focus on providing their best level of service in
directly protecting the community.

High Visibility Enforcement (HVE) Deputy
The (HVE) Deputy employs a universal traffic safety approach combining highly visible and proactive law enforcement strategies targeting specific traffic safety issues. This approach is designed to create deterrence and change unlawful traffic behaviors. The HVE Deputy is available to assist with routine calls for service and is also tasked with conducting high-visibility patrol checks of city trails, recreational areas, and facilities.

Traffic Statistics
The traffic index is a measure of traffic enforcement effectiveness as it relates to the incidents of fatal and injury collisions. The index is based on the percentage of citations issued for hazardous violations compared to the number of fatal and injury collisions. Generally speaking, the higher the enforcement index percentage, the more aggressive the traffic officers have been in identifying and enforcing hazardous traffic violations. The index is determined by dividing the number of hazardous violations by the number of fatal and injury collisions. Per the Office of Traffic Safety, an enforcement index in the 25-35 percent range is desirable.

The City of Laguna Hills had a total of 223 reported traffic accidents in 2022. There were two fatalities resulting from these traffic accidents.

Behavioral Health
The Behavioral Health Bureau (BHB) works collaboratively with the county’s Health Care Agency, mental health professionals, and community stakeholders to develop and utilize innovative methods to reduce recidivism and increase crisis intervention services for the residents of Orange County. In addition to this collaboration, the BHB will also work to further the scope of the department’s Crisis Intervention Training program to afford these skills to all members of the department and to provide enhanced skills to those working in direct support of the BHB.

While the goals of the BHB are to reduce recidivism and increase crisis intervention services for the public, some peripheral benefits for the Department include increased officer safety, a reduction in incidents involving force, and a decrease in specific types of calls for service.

In support of the BHB, Laguna Hills Patrol Deputies who have received specialized training function as Behavioral Health Liaison Officer’s (HLO) during their shift. HLO’s work collaboratively with Mercy House, the City’s contracted homeless support services provider, as well as various government agencies, faith-based groups, and private organizations to help transition homeless individuals off the streets and into supportive housing and services. This collaborative approach focuses on outreach and is coupled with enforcement to assist the homeless population while simultaneously protecting the quality of life for the citizens of Laguna Hills. *Behavioral Health Liaison statistic are received from ESRI.

In 2022, there were countless field interviews
of individuals that were experiencing homelessness and mental health issues in Laguna Hills. In addition, there were 490 calls for services pertaining to homelessness and mental health. An average of 50% of these calls mental health was the underlying issue, while 5% of the total calls pertained to homelessness.

Laguna Hills Police Services had a total of 570
hours of consumption time, assisting with
homelessness and mental health calls for service. These hours are estimated to be worth $84,000 in deputy costs.

NEWS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
OC Sheriff Public Affairs, 714-904-7042
Suspect in Laguna Woods church shooting identified, additional details of investigation released SANTA ANA Ca, (May 16, 2022): OC Sheriff investigators today released additional details about the 68-yearold man arrested on suspicion of entering a Laguna Woods church and shooting multiple victims during a lunch banquet, including evidence that points to a methodical plan devised by the suspect to carry out his crimes.

On Sunday, May 15, 2022, investigators arrested David Chou, 68, of Las Vegas, on suspicion of murder and attempted murder after he entered Geneva Presbyterian Church in the 24000 block of El Toro Road and fired multiple rounds, striking six victims. At the time of the shooting, members of the Irvine Taiwanese Presbyterian Church, which has had a space at the church since 2009, were having a lunch banquet to welcome a pastor who had recently returned from Taiwan.

Five victims sustained gunshot wounds and were taken to local hospitals for treatment. The sixth victim, identified as Dr. John Cheng, 52, of Laguna Niguel, sustained multiple gunshot wounds when he intervened and tackled the suspect, allowing other church members to detain the suspect. The victims also were able to tie his legs with extension cords and confiscate two handguns from the suspect. Dr. Cheng, who was attending the lunch banquet with his mother, was pronounced deceased at the scene. “Dr. Cheng was a loving family man, dedicated doctor and a beloved member of our community, and we send our deepest condolences to all who knew him,” said Don Barnes, Orange County Sheriff-Coroner. “There is no doubt that Dr. Cheng’s actions that day saved the lives of many other church members. He is a hero and will be remembered by this community as such.”
Deputies arrived at the scene, arrested the suspect and provided lifesaving measures until paramedics with the Orange County Fire Authority arrived to provide advanced critical care.

Investigators believe the suspect may have traveled to the Southern California area on Saturday, May 14, 2022, and came to the church Sunday morning. During the lunch, the suspect is believed to have secured the doors to the building with chains and placed superglue into the keyholes. He then started shooting inside the building.

Investigators located three bags strategically placed in the building containing various items, including additional ammunition and four Molotov cocktail-type devices. The incendiary devices were collected by the OC Sheriff Hazardous Devices Section and will be analyzed by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).

OC Sheriff investigators worked with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department to serve a search warrant on the suspect’s residence. Investigators currently are processing multiple items of evidence, including electronic devices. In addition, evidence was collected from the suspect’s vehicle, which was located in the church parking lot.

Based on preliminary findings of the investigation, evidence collected, and statements from the suspect, investigators were able to connect the suspect to the shooting. It also was determined the suspect was upset about political tensions involving China and Taiwan.
“It appears this tragic incident was fueled by politically motivated hate, and that is something we do not tolerate,” Barnes said. “Orange County is a community that celebrates diversity and takes pride in being a place people feel safe to worship, work and live. While someone from outside our community has attempted to diminish these ideals through an act of violence, we remain united in our commitment to tolerance and acceptance.” Additional evidence is still being processed and the investigation is ongoing. The Sheriff’s Department continues to work with the Orange County Fire Authority, ATF, and the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) on this incident.

Sheriff Sandra Hutchens
“Sandra Hutchens served as the 12th Orange County Sheriff from 2008-2019. She took office at a difficult time. The public’s trust had been broken by the previous sheriff. Upon taking office, she immediately took action to put one of the nation’s largest law enforcement agencies back on track. She was a leader whose ethics matched the culture of the men and women of this department. She restored our pride, gave us back our dignity, and rebuilt the trust with the people we serve. She kept her oath, kept her promise, and ended her time in the office leaving this agency better than when she started.”

1 SB 946 (Lara) Street Vending – Bill Analysis
Orange County Division Members,
I’ve been receiving a lot of requests for an analysis on SB 946, the street vending bill that has been opposed by the League since its inception and was signed into law by Governor Brown.

Down below and attached is a detailed bill analysis, however, here are the main points for cities to keep in mind:

1. Cities are prohibited from banning street vending.

2. Cities can regulate street vending within the parameters of SB 946, mainly with regard to health, safety, and welfare concerns.

3. Cities can require a street vendor to obtain a permit to operate, charge a business license fee, etc.

4. Street vending has been decriminalized – only punishable by administrative fines.

5. If a city fails to adopt a street vending ordinance in accordance with SB 946, the city has no ability to issue any citation or fine.

Bill Summary:

This measure would prohibit a local authority from adopting rules or regulations, by ordinance or resolution, that regulate or prohibit sidewalk vendors unless it first adopts a sidewalk vending licensing program that requires a sidewalk vendor to obtain a license from the local authority before selling food or merchandise.

Bill Description:

Specifically, SB 946 allows a local authority to adopt a sidewalk vending licensing program that requires a sidewalk vendor to obtain a license from the local authority before he or she is authorized to sell food or merchandise.

The local authority’s licensing system shall comply with all of the following standards:
 A local authority shall not restrict the location of a licensed sidewalk vendor unless the restriction is directly related to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns.  A local authority shall not prohibit a sidewalk vendor from selling food or merchandise in a park owned or operated by the local authority, except the local authority may prohibit stationary sidewalk vendors from vending in the park only if the operator of the park has signed an agreement for concessions that exclusively permits the sale of food or merchandise by the concessionaire.
 A local authority may adopt additional requirements regulating the time, place, and manner of sidewalk vending in a park owned or operated by the local authority if the requirements are any of the following:
o Directly related to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns.

8.1.1.a
Packet Pg. 191 Attachment: Copy of the SB 946 Bill Analysis Prepared by the California League of Cities (3125 : Street/Sidewalk Vending - SB 946) 2 o Necessary to ensure the public’s use and enjoyment of natural resources and recreational opportunities.
o Necessary to prevent an undue concentration of commercial activity that unreasonably interferes with the scenic and natural character of the park.  A local authority shall not require a licensed sidewalk vendor to first obtain the consent or approval of any nongovernmental entity or individual before he or she can sell food or merchandise.
 A local authority shall not restrict sidewalk vendors to operate only in a designated neighborhood or area, except when that restriction is directly related to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns.
 A local authority may prohibit stationary sidewalk vendors in areas that are zoned exclusively residential, but shall not prohibit roaming sidewalk vendors.  A local authority may prohibit sidewalk vendors in areas located within the immediate vicinity of a permitted certified farmers’ market or a permitted swap meet during the limited operating hours of that certified farmers’ market or swap meet.  A local authority may restrict or prohibit sidewalk vendors within the immediate vicinity of an area designated for a temporary special permit issued by the local authority, provided that any notice, business interruption mitigation, or other rights provided to affected businesses or property owners under the local authority’s temporary special permit are also provided to any sidewalk vendors specifically permitted to operate in the area, if applicable.
 A local authority shall not restrict the overall number of sidewalk vendor licenses issued unless the restriction is directly related to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns.  Perceived community animus or economic competition does not constitute an objective health, safety, or welfare concern.
 A local authority may, by ordinance or resolution, adopt additional requirements regulating the time, place, and manner of sidewalk vending if the requirements are directly related to objective health, safety, or welfare concerns, including, but not limited to, any of the following:
o Limitations on hours of operation that are not unduly restrictive. In nonresidential areas, any limitations on the hours of operation for sidewalk vending shall not be more restrictive than any limitations on hours of operation imposed on other businesses or uses on the same street.
o Requirements to maintain sanitary conditions.
o Requirements necessary to ensure compliance with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-336) and other disability access standards.
o Requiring the sidewalk vendor to obtain from the local authority a permit for sidewalk vending or a valid business license.
o Requiring the sidewalk vendor to possess a valid California Department of Tax and Fee Administration seller’s permit.
o Requiring additional licenses from other state or local agencies to the extent required by law.
o Requiring compliance with other generally applicable laws. o Requiring a sidewalk vendor to submit information on his or her operations, including, but not limited to, any of the following:
 The name and current mailing address of the sidewalk vendor.  A description of the merchandise offered for sale or exchange.

8.1.1.a
Packet Pg. 192 Attachment: Copy of the SB 946 Bill Analysis Prepared by the California League of Cities (3125 : Street/Sidewalk Vending - SB 946) 3  certification by the vendor that to his or her knowledge and belief, the information contained on the form is true.
 The California seller’s permit number (California Department of Tax and Fee Administration sales tax number), if any, of the sidewalk vendor.  If the sidewalk vendor is an agent of an individual, company, partnership, or corporation, the name and business address of the principal.

A violation of a local authority’s sidewalk vending program that complies with Section 51038 is punishable only by the following:
 An administrative fine not exceeding one hundred dollars ($100) for a first violation.  An administrative fine not exceeding two hundred dollars ($200) for a second violation within one year of the first violation.
 An administrative fine not exceeding five hundred dollars ($500) for each additional violation within one year of the first violation.
 A local authority may rescind a permit issued to a sidewalk vendor for the term of that permit upon the fourth violation or subsequent violations.

If a local authority requires a sidewalk vendor to obtain a sidewalk vending permit from the local authority, vending without a sidewalk vending permit may be punishable by the following:
 An administrative fine not exceeding two hundred fifty dollars ($250) for a first violation.  An administrative fine not exceeding five hundred dollars ($500) for a second violation within one year of the first violation.
 An administrative fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000) for each additional violation within one year of the first violation.
 Upon proof of a valid permit issued by the local authority, the administrative fines shall be reduced to the administrative fines set forth in paragraph (1).

Failure to pay an administrative fine shall not be punishable as an infraction or misdemeanor.

Additional fines, fees, assessments, or any other financial conditions beyond those authorized in this measure shall not be assessed.

A violation of a local authority’s sidewalk vending program that complies with Section 51038, or a violation of any rules or regulations adopted prior to January 1, 2019, that regulate or prohibit sidewalk vendors in the jurisdiction of a local authority, shall not be punishable as an infraction or misdemeanor, and the person alleged to have violated any of those provisions shall not be subject to arrest except when permitted under law.

This shall apply to all pending criminal prosecutions under any local ordinance or resolution regulating or prohibiting sidewalk vendors. Any of those criminal prosecutions that have not reached final judgment shall be dismissed.

A local authority that has not adopted rules or regulations by ordinance or resolution that comply with Section 51037 shall not cite, fine, or prosecute a sidewalk vendor for a violation of any rule or regulation that is inconsistent with the standards described in subdivision (b) Section 51038.
