Approved by: Steve McClary, City Manager
Date prepared: August 30, 2023 Meeting date: September 11, 2023 Subject: Second Reading and Adoption of Ordinance No. 509 RECOMMENDED ACTION: Conduct second reading, unless waived, and adopt Ordinance No. 509, an ordinance of the City of Malibu amending Zoning Map Amendment (ZMA) No. 17-002 and Zoning Text Amendment (ZTA) No. 20-001 to effectuate previous amendments made to Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA) No. 16-006 for the Sea View Hotel Project as adopted by Ordinance No. 491 on September 13, 2021 and amended by Ordinance No. 508 on July 10, 2023 pursuant to the conditional certification action taken by the California Coastal Commission (CCC) on February 8, 2023 to rezone and change the land use designation of the properties located at 22741 and 22729 Pacific Coast Highway from Community Commercial (CC) to Commercial Visitor Serving-2 (CV-2), a new Seaview Hotel Overlay District with associated development standards, including a proposed floor area ratio of 0.52 for the public benefits provided by the project (the amendments to the ZMA and ZTA are corollary to LCPA and will not be effective until the LCPA is certified by the CCC), and finding the action to require no further environmental review and/or to be exempt from such review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
FISCAL IMPACT: As described in the Council’s September 13, 2021, staff report, the applicant for ZMA No. 17-002, ZTA No. 20-001, LCPA No. 16-006 and associated Coastal Development Permit (CDP) No. 17-086 would contribute a fee of $110,000, inlieu of providing six lower cost overnight visitor accommodations. The City would be able to transfer these funds to a public agency, nonprofit organization, or private entity after entering a Memorandum of Understanding or other contractual agreement that requires use of the funds for construction of lower cost overnight visitor accommodations in the Malibu/Santa Monica Mountains coastal zone area of Los Angeles County or Ventura County and which requires that the accommodations remain lower cost. However, the transfer of funds is not required, and the funds could be deposited into the General Fund City Council Meeting

Agenda Item # 3.A.1.
Undesignated Reserve. In addition to the ZMA, ZTA, LCPA and CDP, associated Development Agreement (DA) No. 21-001 stipulated that the applicant would also contribute $800,000 to the City for public benefits at the time the construction permits are issued for the associated project. Pursuant to General Plan Section 1.5.0, public benefits shall include physical improvements dedicated and reserved for public use, including, but not limited to, open space, wetlands, trails and walkways, parks, athletic fields, and civic or public buildings (such as senior centers, youth facilities, city hall, etc.). These funds would total $910,000 and must be deposited into a General Fund Designated Reserve for a public benefit purpose. In 2021, the applicant forecasted that the project would generate over $1.0 million in Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) revenue annually; however, this projection was not confirmed by staff at the time as nightly room rates or the occupancy projections were unknown.
The CCC’s actions on February 8, 2023, modified the LCPA and included additional financial contributions associated with the project. CCC Modification No. 3 to the LCPA included an $800,000 fee to be paid by agreement between the CCC and the applicant to fund new lower cost overnight visitor accommodations elsewhere in the Malibu/Santa Monica Mountains coastal zone. The CCC described that the payment could be directed toward a public project to implement affordable visitor-serving accommodations in the area. In addition, the CCC described a commitment made by the applicant to provide $250,000 to a nonprofit organization that provides free surf lessons and transportation to beaches in the Malibu area for children in underserved communities in the general Los Angeles area. These additional fees totaling $1,050,000 would be submitted directly to the CCC and Los Courage Camps per the CCC’s proposed modifications.
In total, the applicant will be contributing $1,960,000.
WORK PLAN: This item was not included in the Adopted Work Plan for FY 2022-2023.

Ordinance No. 509
__________________
SECTION 2. Environmental Review.
Pursuant to the authority and criteria contained in California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City Council has analyzed the amended ZMA and ZTA herein and makes the following findings. Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21080.9, CEQA does not apply to activities and approvals by the City Council as necessary for the preparation and adoption of an LCPA. The proposed Council action is to adopt corollary amendments to the Title 17 (Zoning) of the MMC to effectuate previous amendments made to LCPA No. 16-006 as adopted by Ordinance No. 491 on September 13, 2021 and amended by Ordinance No. 508 on July 10, 2023 pursuant to the conditional certification action taken by the CCC on February 8, 2023 (CCC LCPA No. LCP4-MAL-21-0073-2).
Further, the City Council’s action, including without limitation, direction to prepare an Ordinance were adequately covered in Initial Study (IS) No. 21-001 and Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) No. 21-001 for the Sea View Hotel (SCH #2012041087), adopted by the City Council on September 13, 2021 (Resolution No. 21-45). The City Council’s action is not a separate “project” for CEQA purposes but rather a subsequent discretionary action related to a previously approved project (CEQA Guidelines § 15378(c)). Additionally, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, and based on the review of the entire record, including without limitation, the IS/MND, the City Council finds that the proposed action does not require further environmental review as: 1) no substantial changes are proposed to the project and no substantial changes have occurred that require major revisions to the IS/MND due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or an increase in severity of previously identified significant effects; and 2) no new information of substantial importance has come to light that shows the project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the IS/MND. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15162(b), the City Council finds and recommends that no further analysis or environmental documentation is necessary. Accordingly, the City Council’s action is merely a step toward furtherance of the original project for which environmental review was performed, no supplemental or subsequent CEQA has been triggered, and no further environmental review is required.

The amendments to the MMC will effectuate previous amendments made to LCPA No. 16-006 for the Sea View Hotel Project as adopted by Ordinance No. 491 on September 13, 2021 and amended by Ordinance No. 508 on July 10, 2023 pursuant to the conditional certification action taken by the CCC on February 8, 2023.

Malibu City Council
Minutes of October 10, 2022
_________________________
ITEM 1 CEREMONIAL/PRESENTATIONS
None.
ITEM 2.A. PUBLIC COMMENTS
Bill Sampson stated that the half-marathon, scheduled to be held November 4, 5, and 6, 2022 would conflict with a car show at Zuma beach that was planned for November 6, 2022. He stated two events held on the same date would conflate traffic problems and that he hoped traffic would be handled better than during the recent Malibu Triathlon.
Nicole McGinley presented a report on wireless siting and requested the Council amend Resolution No. 21-17, to remove of the word “residential” from Section
5.C.6. and instead state: “The City expressly designates public open space and recreational vehicle park zoning districts, parks and schools as the least appropriate possible locations, and the absolution last choices for siting.” In addition, she requested the addition of a new Section, 5.C.7. “The City expressly designates residential zones as disallowed locations. An application other than an eligible facility request seeking to place a wireless facility in a residential zone must demonstrate through clear and convincing evidence that there is no technically feasible alternative.” She stated that it would not be problematic as there was not a change that would require approval from the California Coastal Commission (CCC).
Lonnie Gordon, Malibu for Safe Tech, requested the Council amend Resolution 21- 17, which pertained to wireless siting, for the revision and addition of language that protected residential zones. She stated it would not be difficult or utilize much staff or Council time. She emphasized the need for some level of protection of residential areas from wireless facilities and felt that the requested changes were unintentional omissions during the adoption of the resolution due to the hearing having gone on very late and everyone was exhausted.
E. Barry Haldeman, Malibu Arts Commission, requested the City provide an expedited review of an agreement between the City and Caltrans regarding a grant for the Malibu Arts Commission because it had very strict deadlines and he did not want the artist community and the community as a whole to lose out.
MOTION Councilmember Uhring moved, and Councilmember Pierson seconded a motion to allow public speaker, Kayla Nia, seven minutes for public comment. The question was called, and the motion carried 4-1, with Mayor Pro Tem Silverstein opposed.
Kayla Nia, Pepperdine University student, presented a video that discussed school safety.
Marilyn Cosentino deferred her time to Annie Ellis.
Malibu City Council
Minutes of October 10, 2022
_________________________
Annie Ellis commented on challenges the Cornucopia Farmers’ Market had experienced. She stated that at the Planning Commission meeting on February 29, 2016, Los Angeles County Supervisor Sheila Kuhl’s representative Maria Chong Castillo reassured the Commission that the farmers’ market would not be disturbed during Santa Monica College (SMC) construction and that there was no reason to add a provision to protect the farmers’ market operation because it was already taken care of. She stated that the operators of the farmers’ market met with the County and SMC, but a resolution had not been reached. She stated that construction workers installed a fence without any notice that blocked 80 feet and eliminated proper ingress and egress and pedestrian use of the sidewalk. She stated the solution was to permit the farmers’ market to operate on the perimeter of Legacy Park during the remainder of SMC construction. She stated she had grown up in Malibu and found it difficult to see Juan Cabrillo elementary school close but was glad students would not have to be bussed over to Santa Monica High School. She stated she found it sad to see so many equestrian facilities closing.
Benjamin Leeds commented on the farmers’ market and stated that proper ingress and egress were essential and anything that could be done to increase the size of the market would be appreciated. He stated that he would like utilities to be located underground rather than above ground wires.
ITEM 2.B. COMMISSION / COMMITTEE / CITY MANAGER UPDATES City Manager McClary stated that the Government Finance Officers Association awarded a certificate of achievement to the city for excellence in financial reporting for Fiscal Year 2020-21. He reported that COVID-19 cases were trending downward. He stated that the County averaged 1,285 cases per day and hospital admissions averaged 76 per day, a decline of 20 percent from the week prior. He stated that the County encouraged vaccination. He stated that there was a slight increase in worksite clusters and that 95 percent of the Omicron variant tested was the BA.5 subvariant. He stated that community transmission levels were low enough for the Council to consider holding in-person meetings and recommended the Council consider that item in January after the new Council was seated. He stated that although the City was not a party to the agreement between the farmers’ market and the County, the value to the community was recognized and they were working toward a solution. He stated that use of the City’s Ioki lot for the farmers’ market was explored but it had not met County Health Department Standards as it was a dirt lot. He stated that the Public Works Department worked with the contractor to ensure sidewalk access to the farmers’ market every weekend. He stated he met with Senator Henry Stern and his staff and discussed the State requirement for cell sites to have backup power in the event of an extended power outage by July of 2021. He stated that providers were surveyed, and there was some response that they were working on having the requirement satisfied and others failed to respond. He requested Senator Stern help the City with compliance through the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) and the governor’s office. He stated that the City requested Senator Stern’s office help with arrangements to have the California Highway Patrol (CHP) units staged on Pacific Malibu City Council
Minutes of October 10, 2022

Coast Highway (PCH), in advance of anticipated power outages and that their office was very receptive and indicated they would work with the CHP to see if that assistance could be provided. He reported that there would be a meeting of the Zoning Ordinance Revisions and Code Enforcement Subcommittee (ZORACES) on Wednesday, October 12, 2022, where changes to the City’s temporary use permit (TUP) code would be discussed. He announced that a request for proposals (RFP) for development services was issued and would conclude by the end of October. He stated a firm was sought for assessment of the City’s development services, which included the Planning Department, Building Safety Division, and the Public Works Department permit and application review process in addition to staffing levels and culture, organizational structure, policies and procedures, and customer service. He stated that a contract for the recommended firm would be brought before the Council and a detailed report would be provided by the firm by the early part of 2023.
Lieutenant Dustin Carr, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, reported that the encampment at Surfrider Beach was addressed and a person experiencing homelessness was provided resources for shelter. He reported that night enforcement operations were conducted along PCH, and in a single night yielded 23 citations which included one oversized vehicle for various vehicle code violations. He reported that the Sheriff’s Department worked to have two individuals identified who possessed illegal substance paraphernalia in an attempt to refer them to services. He reported that an oversized vehicle survey was conducted, and 18 oversized vehicles were identified, and the survey would be continuous. He stated additional surveillance was implemented at Legacy Park so further incidences of vandalism or harassment could be prevented. He stated that a full crime report would be made available at the next Council meeting. He reported all crime trended downward, which included grand theft auto, arson, aggravated assault, and larceny or theft. He reported that a SMC student was arrested for assault against two SMC students. He requested anyone who may have been a victim of that person contact the Sheriff’s Department. He stated that the Malibu Triathlon ended without significant incidents, that one bicyclist was injured unrelated to traffic, and that a new traffic pattern was implemented which had the U-turn situated in different area, and that change worked well.
In response to Mayor Pro Tem Silverstein, Lieutenant Carr discussed enforcement of the City’s camping regulations and stated he was waiting for direction from his Department.
In response to Councilmember Uhring, Lieutenant Carr stated that when they received information that cars shows were planned the Department provided additional enforcement to keep PCH cleared and appropriately managed, but they were unaware of the recent unannounced gatherings referenced.
Lotte Cherin, Malibu Arts Commission, announced October was National Arts Month and many projects were planned. She stated that a community survey should be conducted to determine if there was interest in an Arts Center and the use of Malibu City Council

City’s vacant land should be explored. She discussed the submission of artwork for the Caltrans project and encouraged the Council to expedite the contact with Caltrans or an update be provided on the Council’s position on whether there would be participation by the City in the project.
Community Services Deputy Director Riesgo reported that staff was in the process of working with Caltrans on the art agreement.
ITEM 2.C. SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS / COUNCIL COMMENTS
Councilmember Pierson invited Mr. Sampson to attend the half-marathon in November to see a well-run event. He acknowledged public speakers’ concerns and stated that things could take a long time as they worked through the challenges involved in the wireless matter and arts in Malibu and he would help how he could.
He thanked Ms. Nia for her presentation and stated school safety was a timely issue.
In response to public comment on the farmers’ market, he stated that when the City worked with other agencies, things did not always go as planned, that the City did not have a lot of control, and it was frustrating, but they would not give up. He thanked City Manager McClary for sharing the good news about the financial award and emphasized the importance of clear and organized financial reports. He thanked those involved in addressing emergency backup wireless power. He encouraged the public to participate in the upcoming ZORACES meeting on temporary use permits.
Councilmember Uhring discussed the volume of trash left at Zuma beach after the Malibu Triathlon and requested cleanup measures be implemented after events. He stated that the farmers’ market should be allowed to use the perimeter of Legacy Park until the parking lot safety issues were addressed by the County. He emphasized the importance of the farmers’ market to the community. He stated that artist Dawn Erickson created a brochure and lessen plan on the Dark Sky movement and requested the Council sign a letter to accompany the brochures when they were issued to the local schools.
Councilmember Farrer stated that the farmers’ market’s needs should be accommodated. She applauded the City for their excellence in financial reporting.
She thanked Lieutenant Carr for his informational reports and the attention to the illegally parked oversized vehicles and stated that she was glad when she heard there were no additional disturbing incidents in Legacy Park. She stated that the School District Reorganization Mediation meeting was cancelled.

Pepperdine University the prior week. He stated he researched Assembly Bill 988 which apparently exempted Malibu from the requirement of an expediated application response time which was part of the legislation when the Local Coastal Program was imposed on Malibu by the CCC. He stated it was falsely reported that the City enforced some rules against impairing environmentally sensitive habitat area (ESHA) and wetland on the property that Southern California Edison (SCE) covered with cement which was the subject of a CCC appeal. He stated that was regarding the Smith property which was the grassland between the property SCE covered with cement and the condominiums. He discussed the Grants Pass decision and stated it strengthened the laws that pertained to unhoused people in communities. He stated that there could be action against the formation of encampments.
Mayor Grisanti thanked Mayor Pro Tem Silverstein for the camping enforcement information and stated that more beds should be available in the County for unhoused persons as the social distancing guidelines had loosened and more occupants could be accommodated in a smaller area. He stated he spoke to Ms.
Castillo and she said that the County had a document, signed by Ms. Bianco, that acknowledged there would be difficulties for the farmers’ market during the SMC construction and they would do their best to minimize disruptions. He stated that he participated in meetings over a three-day period with the Metropolitan Water District about maintenance of their systems and that Malibu’s water was supplied by both the Colorado River and through the Central Valley and encouraged water conservation.

ITEM 2.A. PUBLIC COMMENTS
Don Schmitz presented slides that displayed excerpts from a form he found on the City’s website, and from the Malibu Municipal Code that indicated swimming pools were not counted in impermeable coverage calculations. He stated that the change in interpretation by the Planning Department had dramatic implications for homeowners who wanted a pool built and for those with pools that wanted additions to their homes. He stated that any significant changes to interpretations should have involved public input, discussion at a Zoning Ordinance and Revisions and Code Enforcement Subcommittee (ZORACES) meeting, and considered by the Planning Commission.
Arfarkhashad Munaim, Schmitz and Associates, commented on impact to homeowners if swimming pools were counted toward impermeable lot coverage and stated that any such change of interpretation should have gone through a vetting process.
Chris Deleau, Schmitz and Associates, stated that as a professional land use planner and attorney for the past 20 years he agreed that Malibu was a unique place and needed to be protected. He stated that Schmitz and Associates had never advocated for less stringent development standards, but changes to interpretation of the code should not be applicable to projects that were midway through the process. He requested codes and policies be applied as they existed, and if changes were desired, then to take those changes through the process of ZORACES and a Local Coastal Program (LCP) Amendment.
Scott Halley stated that he was a small business owner for the past 45 years in the construction industry and he had four projects put on hold during the past month and he had never seen delays as severe. He stated the delay factors included the COVID-19 pandemic, 2018 Woolsey Fire, inflation, supply chain delays, and elevated interest rates. He stated that he sought relief for Malibu residents in the Malibu City Council
Minutes of October 24, 2022

process of building single-family homes. He discussed the challenges for those rebuilding from the Woolsey Fire. He stated that all of those factors considered, he thought it would be reasonable, fair, and decent if the City of Malibu allowed the residents one year stay for their permits to be kept open.
Debra Bianco stated that the County and Santa Monica College promised Malibu that the farmers’ market would go untouched. She stated that little by little property for the market was taken away and that 15 vendors had to be let go. She stated that she and the vendors that remained had a meeting the prior Friday with the City Manager and the Deputy City Manager and requested the County notify her in advance if more space was going to be taken away. She requested the Council allow the farmers’ market to use of Legacy Park.
Marilyn Cosentino spoke in favor of the farmers’ market and stated that the farmers’ market was not protected as promised. She discussed ongoing changes to the farmers’ market space. She stated that the contract indicated there would be no disturbance of the market and the disruption was on its eighth week. She stated that she was frustrated, and farmers had lost money.
Evan Contino, Burdge Architects, stated that there should be a more formal legislative process and notice given for drastic reinterpretations of the code as was the case in swimming pools and spas considered impermeable lot coverage. He stated that applicants subjected to changes after the project had been carefully designed and submitted was catastrophic. He stated that changes should not be retroactive.
E. Barry Haldeman stated that the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority (MRCA) had scheduled a virtual scoping meeting on Thursday, October 27, 2022, for discussion of large-scale camping plans and he urged the public to submit written comments to the MRCA. He commented on the Malibu Film Society’s search for a venue for film screenings and stated that the Malibu Pacific Church was the only suitable option. He stated that he was disappointed when Councilmember Uhring inicated at the ZORACES meeting that the Malibu Film Society should not be allowed to run their full schedule out of Malibu Pacific Church. He stated that as a creative community Malibu should have a venue to host screenings.
Noah Taublieb stated his concern about the farmers’ market’s potential removal.
He stated that many families treasured the market and it was one of the few regularly occurring events geared toward the residents rather than tourists. He requested the Council’s assistance in supporting the market.
Lester Tobias discussed permit policies for additions and referenced a presentation that was sent to the Council over the weekend. He discussed the current code requirements for additions and remodels. He stated that the premise for the proposed policy was false as it promised improved efficiency in the processing of projects, yet all it did was add another layer of review and another means of Malibu City Council

challenging otherwise decent projects and led to further delays.
Jefferson Wagner discussed the formation of a creative library foundation. He and Candace Brown introduced a video which outlined progressive uses for libraries.
He referenced recent newspaper articles that cited activities the Malibu Library hosted that served the specific needs of the community.
Hap Henry voiced his support for the farmers’ market, the Malibu Film Society, and Malibu Little League and requested the Council’s support of valuable community organizations. He announced a candidates’ forum and a MRCA hearing were scheduled for Thursday, October 27, 2022. He voiced his opposition to camping at Bluffs Park and property just outside of the Malibu city limits at Ramirez Canyon and stated that it was reckless and irresponsible and not what the Malibu community needed.
Lindsey Horvath, West Hollywood City Councilmember, commented on fire safety and preparation. She stated coordination, upgrades, and improvements were underway and needed to be continued for the region to better withstand and respond to wildfires.
Annie Ellis stated fire safety, library, and films were important. She commented on how slowly rebuild permits were processed. She stated that as a Malibu resident for 65 years, some of her favorite things were taken away and encouraged the Council to help preserve the farmers’ market. She requested the market be moved to Legacy Park soon to avoid the loss of vendors.
Norm Haynie stated the reason swimming pools were considered permeable was because rainwater fell into the pool which prevented an excessive amount of water from running off the property and into the drainage system. He stated that was the logic behind the original concept of swimming pools not being included in the impermeable calculation.
Bill Sampson stated that the candidates’ public safety forum was scheduled for Thursday, October 27, 2022, at an establishment in the Trancas Country Market shopping center and the virtual MRCA scoping meeting was scheduled for Thursday, October 27, 2022.
Barbara Burke was not present at the time of the hearing.
ITEM 2.B. COMMISSION / COMMITTEE / CITY MANAGER UPDATES City Manager McClary reported a public safety power shut off watch was issued, but ultimately a shutoff was avoided.

He stated that the County reported the prevalence of three potentially highly contagious subvariants that could lead to increased cases during Malibu City Council
Minutes of October 24, 2022

the upcoming winter season. He reminded the community that booster vaccines were available to those who had their vaccine more than two months prior. He stated that the County reported more that 80 percent of the population had received the initial vaccination series, and seven percent had received the bivalent booster.
He stated that a notice of preparation of an environmental impact report was received for the camping project proposed by the MRCA, titled “The Malibu Lower Cost Accommodations Public Works Plan” which included two sites, Bluffs Park, within the City of Malibu, and Ramirez Canyon Park, located just north of the Malibu city limits. He stated that the City issued information to the community on the virtual scoping meeting which would be held Thursday, October 27, 2022. He stated that public comment would be accepted during the 60-day scoping period which would end on December 16, 2022, and that the City would submit written comments. He stated that California Governor Gavin Newsom announced that the COVID-19 state of emergency would end on February 28, 2023. He stated that the matters of in-person meetings and the allowance of outdoor dining needed to be addressed. He thanked the Big Rock Mesa Property Owners Association for his inclusion in their annual event and stated that he enjoyed meeting their members.
He stated that tentative items for the November 14, 2022 City Council meeting would be the Malibu Triathlon agreement and a report on the day-use impound lot.
He stated that the contract for the PCH signal synchronization project was tentatively scheduled for the November 28, 2022 Council meeting and a discussion on short-term rentals and the return of in-person meetings would be discussed at a January 2023 City Council meeting.
Planning Director Mollica provided an update on the snack shack located at Bluffs Park and stated the existing snack shack was considered an existing nonconforming use. He stated that the City’s zoning ordinance identified refreshment stands required a conditional use permit (CUP), and they were only conditionally permitted in three of the City’s commercial districts which did not include the Open Space District Bluffs Park was designated. He stated options were being explored such as a code change or another way to have food services at the park. He provided an update on the City’s wireless LCP amendment which was at the California Coastal Commission (CCC), and he stated that the wireless amendment was bundled with the beachfront signage amendment because the City was limited to three LCP amendment submittals per year. He stated that the City’s 2021 – 2029 Housing Element Update adopted by Council in January 2022 would be submitted to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) as required by law. He stated that requests for clarification from HUD were being addressed by the City’s consultants. He stated that the swimming pool interpretation was not the new issue and he would research the matter. He stated that about a decade prior a discrepancy was found between the City’s stormwater runoff requirements and how, in the engineering world, swimming pools were considered to be an impermeable surface because there were many infinity edge pools that discharged water during stormwater events. He stated that was the reason the Public Works Department reviewed pools and they were considered impermeable surfaces for the purposes of stormwater runoff requirements. He stated that he was not aware of any project denials, and the issue would be studied.

Lieutenant Dustin Carr, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, stated that an individual experiencing homelessness was assisted through a collaboration of the homeowner and members of the public when her vehicle ran out of gas. He provided an update about the concern that a car show was planned that would conflict with the November 5, 2022 kids fun run during the half-marathon event, and reassured the Council and the community that barricades that would prevent cars from being staged in the area would be set up the evening prior to the event.
He stated that there would be increased law enforcement personnel available during the event and there would be zero tolerance for dangerous behavior and exhibition of speed. He provided an end-of-the-quarter report, as of September 30, 2022, aggravated assaults were down 14 percent, robberies were down 33 percent, armed robberies were down 57 percent, auto theft down 54 percent, and petty theft down 33 percent.

He encouraged the public to lock their homes, have a video security system installed, and a professionally installed high-quality safe for valuable items.
He stated that arrests were made in connection with some of the burglaries and that there were no burglaries with a high-value significant loss of property. He stated that traffic collisions had increased year-to-date, but there was a 50 percent reduction in fatalities.
ITEM 2.C. SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS / COUNCIL COMMENTS
Councilmember Farrer stated that a solution to help the farmers’ market should be found and that the City should use its leverage if the County and SMC had not honored their commitments. She thanked Planning Director Mollica for his clarification of the City’s interpretation of the permeability of swimming pools. She stated that she signed up for participation in the upcoming MRCA virtual scoping meeting and stated that she was in opposition to their camping proposal. She stated that the snack shack at Bluffs Park should be allowed and that any code changes necessary for it to be compliant should be pursued or another solution found such as a recurring food truck. She reported that at the Las Virgenes-Malibu Council of Governments (COG) meeting, the Los Angeles County Fire Department announced new fire evacuation routes would be forthcoming on October 25, 2022. She commented on the recent Library Speaker Series event that featured a shark attack survivor turned motivational speaker and conservationist and encouraged community attendance of the series.

Minutes of October 24, 2022
_________________________
the letters he saw did not eliminate City Hall for screenings, only that it was not the ideal facility and suggested modifications that improved the suitability of City Hall for film screenings. He stated that he had read in several publications that COVID19 numbers increased in the eastern portion of the country, perhaps due to their climate. He commented on the difficulties experienced by the farmers’ market and stated that efforts to have it held at Legacy Park should be pursued.
Councilmember Pierson thanked Mr. Jennings and Mr. Foster on their service to the community. He thanked public speaker Mr. Houston for his presentation on water supply challenges. He commented on the public safety power shutoffs that were likely during the upcoming fire season and encouraged community preparation. He stated that the farmers’ market needed to be accommodated during SMC construction. He stated that the ZORACES meeting was rescheduled due to a power outage and that the temporary use permit code changes were being worked on. He stated he was opposed to the MRCA proposal that allowed camping and that it was a major safety concern. He thanked Ms. Brown for sharing the video presentation on library usage.
Mayor Pro Tem Silverstein encouraged the community’s participation in the upcoming election. He congratulated Mr. Jennings and Mr. Foster on their commendations. He stated that proponents of slow growth in Malibu felt that some poor decisions were made over the years. He stated that at the prior Council meeting, with respect to the poison free implementation, the Council directed staff to bring back a proposed amendment to the Local Implementation Plan (LIP) to implement the Land Use Plan provision that was approved by the CCC, and they directed staff from that point forward to construe the LIP provision that deals with Coastal Development Permits (CDP) in a specific way. He stated that the action item came back a few days later that stated that the Council resolved to direct the staff to prepare the amendment and directed staff to bring back a policy for construing the LIP. He requester the public submitting correspondence early. He stated that it was great that the end of COVID-19 state of emergency was near, provided it was consistent with reality. He stated he did not think there should be an immediate end to the existing outdoor dining and that continuation of the practice might be considered. He commented on the snack shack, farmers’ market, and Malibu Film Society, and stated that laws should be honored but local groups that provided community value deserved consideration. He stated that the zoning ordinances should be assessed. He stated that prior to the City Hall building’s conversion to offices, it was a performing arts center and possibly could be upgraded for the Malibu Film Society screenings. He stated that Legacy Park was deed restricted and the use of the City Hall parking lot to accommodate the farmers’ market should be explored. He commented on the swimming pool interpretation and stated that when there were changes there should be a proper process followed by ZORACES and the City Council and that reinterpretation should not be done by the Planning Department. He stated that he thought it inappropriate for public speakers to be interrupted when it sounded like their comments approached a subject listed on the meeting agenda. He stated that he agreed that a modern library was not simply a book depository, that it played a much larger role in the Malibu City Council

community.
Mayor Grisanti stated that he attended a SMC scoping meeting and construction was anticipated to conclude by mid-November which could help the farmers’ market. He stated that he had a conversation with the Los Angeles County Supervisors’ office, and that the farmers’ market contract was with the Board of Supervisors and not the City of Malibu.

Council Agenda Report
To: Mayor Silverstein and the Honorable Members of the City Council Prepared by: Steve McClary, City Manager
Kelsey Pettijohn, City Clerk
Trevor Rusin, Interim City Attorney
Date prepared: August 30, 2023 Meeting date: September 11, 2023 Subject: Findings to Hold Virtual City Council, Commission, Committee, Board and Other City Bodies, Meetings Under AB 361
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Consider a motion to reaffirm Resolution No. 23-14, reauthorizing remote teleconferencing/virtual meetings pursuant to AB 361.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action.
WORK PLAN: This item was not included in the Adopted Work Plan for Fiscal Year 2021-2022.
DISCUSSION: On March 17, 2020, in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20 suspending certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act in order to allow for local legislative bodies to conduct their meetings completely telephonically or by other electronic means, including allowing councilmembers to not have to post an agenda at their teleconference location, not have to identify their location on the meeting agenda, not have to ensure public accessibility at the teleconference location, and the legislative body did not need a quorum in the jurisdiction. The suspension of certain provisions of the Brown Act was further extended by the Governor on June 11, 2021 by the issuance of Executive Order N-08-21, which continued to allow for complete virtual meetings until September 30, 2021.
On September 16, 2021, the Governor signed AB 361, which allows legislative bodies to meet virtually provided there is a state of emergency declared by the Governor, and either (1) state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing; or (2) the legislative body determines by majority vote that meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees. Although the states COVID-19 state of emergency ended on February 28, 2023, AB 361 will remain in City Council Meeting
09-11-23
Item

Agenda Item # 3.B.4.
effect until January 1, 2024. As noted above, AB 361 authorizes public meetings to be held virtually if specified conditions are met. These conditions include when state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing.
Research by staff indicates that officials continue to recommend social distancing.
Specifically, California Division of Occupational Safety and Health (“Cal/OSHA”) regulations—at Title 8 Section 3205—recommend physical distancing in the workplace as precautions against the spread of COVID-19 and impose certain restrictions and requirements due to a “close contact” which occurs when individuals are within six feet of another in certain circumstances. Relatedly, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention continue to recommend avoiding contact and keeping a safe distance from a person who has a suspected or confirmed case of COVID-19.
In order to continue to qualify for the waiver of in-person meeting requirements under AB 361, the Council must, every 30 days, make the required findings. Thus, this item will continue to appear on the agenda to satisfy this requirement during the duration the City Council can make the required findings.

Council Agenda Report
To: Mayor Silverstein and the Honorable Members of the City Council Prepared by: Tracey Rossine, Environmental Programs Manager Reviewed by: Yolanda Bundy, Environmental Sustainability Director Approved by: Steve McClary, City Manager
Date prepared: August 16, 2023 Meeting date: September 11, 2023 Subject: Professional Services Agreement with Iris Consulting RECOMMENDED ACTION: Authorize the Mayor to execute the Professional Services Agreement with Iris Consulting for software development and system integration.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for this amendment is included in the Adopted Budget for FY 2023-24, in Accounts 101-2001-5100 (Planning Professional Services),101-2004-5100 (Building Safety Professional Services), 101-2010-5100 (Wastewater Management Professional Services), 101-3003-5100 (Clean Water Professional Services), 100-3008- 5100 (Public Works Professional Services), 100-7007-5100 (City Clerk Professional Services), Finance Professional Services (100-7054-5100) and 102-3002-5100-02 (Woolsey Fire Professional Services). Compensation will not exceed $145,500 annually.
WORK PLAN: This item was not included in the Proposed Work Plan for FY 2022-2023.
However, the consultant’s work supports numerous items on the work plan. Staff continue to work on ongoing projects and normal business while the FY 2023-24 Work Plan is finalized.
DISCUSSION: The City currently utilizes a proprietary database to track development projects through the planning, building safety, and public works review process. The database also supports Finance, Code Enforcement and the Environmental Programs.
In 2019, the City issued a request for proposals for software development and system integration services. Based on the evaluation of the proposals submitted and the interviews conducted, staff recommended entering into an agreement with Iris Consulting (Consultant). On September 23, 2019, Council authorized a two-year agreement with Iris Consulting in an amount not to exceed $120,500 annually. The City Council Meeting
09-11-23
Item
3.B.5.
Agenda Item # 3.B.5.
Council extended the term of the agreement with the Consultant to expire on September 30, 2023 as the City proceeds with the development and implementation of a new software program.
In FY 2021-22, Council added Work Plan Item No. 6.o. - Develop and Implement New Permitting Software Program. In September 2022, the City released a request for proposals for a land management program to replace the existing development database. Demonstrations were conducted in person so City staff would have the opportunity to consider the advantages and disadvantages of each proposed program.
As the City prepares for the transition to new software, it will be essential to keep operations such as land use management, permitting, and code compliance/case management running seamlessly. It is anticipated that the existing system will need to operate simultaneously with the new system until implementation is complete.
Recently, the Consultant has added critical features to the development database to increase digital capabilities including online submittal portals for building plan checks, building permits, and planning applications, added automated workflows for digital documents, added automated templates, reports and notifications, created an operating permit module for wastewater permits, designed tracking and reporting features to monitor new ownership for the Woolsey Fire Fee Waiver program, added tracking modules for environmental health and geotechnical reviewers, and added new features to both the environmental programs and the code enforcement module. These improvements have been performed for approximately $65,000, well under the annual not to exceed amount. In order to continue with these new features and ensure a high level of service to City residents, a new agreement with Iris Consulting is appropriate with an increased annual not to exceed amount to allow for rising costs and any additional features deemed necessary. Additionally, the City will need the technical expertise of a consultant who has historical knowledge to help facilitate the transition to the new permitting software.
Staff suggests authorizing the Mayor to execute an agreement with Iris Consulting. The City has utilized Iris Consulting to provide specialized consulting services and believes they consistently provide excellent service to the City for support and maintenance of the development database software.

Item
3.B.7.
Agenda Item # 3.B.7.
Creating a Community Engagement Plan and involving community members in public workshops are key components to the Assessment. The first workshop aims to present findings to local stakeholders with the goal of soliciting public comments to incorporate into the final report; the second workshop will seek feedback in order to present the community’s point of view to City Council. Project tasks also include analyzing sea level rise hazards such as the 100-year storm, assessing coastal resources, providing an interactive GIS webpage that depicts different sea level hazard scenarios to coastal assets, and reviewing economic and fiscal impacts.
The Coastal Vulnerability Assessment final report will include how the potential adverse effects of climate change (sea level rise, tidal inundation, storm flooding, and coastal erosion) will impact Malibu’s assets along the coastline such as coastal residences, commercial development, public infrastructure, public beach access, coastal habitats, and water quality. This information will help inform City planning efforts by identifying thresholds at which significant planning areas, assets, and coastal resources could be impacted by sea level rise. The project will identify vulnerabilities and consequences that the City can use to prioritize planning efforts to account for the urgency (time horizon) of individual impacts and the importance of each impact on the community and its resources. The final report will contain coastal hazard maps for each sea level rise scenario and adaptation strategies. Further, these assessment measures will align with the California Coastal Commission’s Sea Level Rise Policy Guidance.
Staff suggests authorizing the Mayor to execute an amendment to extend the term of the original agreement for an additional two years, such that the contract will expire on October 1, 2025. Due to the time extension, staff has added public engagement tasks to the scope of work and is also requesting an increase to the total compensation from $214,000 to $242,114 to ensure completion of the project with community input.

ESA Exhibit A
COASTAL VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT
Scope of Work
(Exhibit A)
SCOPE OF SERVICES: The Consultant shall provide all professional services described herein below.
Task 1. Project Kickoff and Management (Completed)
ESA will mobilize and initiate the project upon receiving notice to proceed and will lead a project kickoff meeting with the City (Task 1.1). ESA’s scope includes managing the project, the ESA team, budget, and schedule and to have regularly scheduled meetings with the City (Task 1.2).
Task 1.1 Project Kickoff (Completed)
ESA will participate in a kickoff meeting with representatives from relevant City departments. The ESA team and the City will meet to discuss and review the project schedule (see Table 7-1), goals, and potential challenges. The kickoff meeting will enable ESA to identify and obtain existing information such as critical City assets that were not included in the AdaptLA Vulnerability Assessment (ESA 2016). The pertinent background studies listed in the RFP will also be reviewed in the kickoff meeting for information relevant to the project.
Task 1.2 Project Management and Meetings
ESA will coordinate with the City’s project manager to establish regularly scheduled project management meetings. These meetings will occur on a monthly basis throughout the planning process. The primary intent of these meetings will be for staff and ESA to regularly and efficiently check in on project progress and schedule. The meetings also provide an opportunity to discuss issues that have arisen and share ideas.
Project meetings could include City staff from different departments, such as engineering and public works, to ensure that all groups are informed of the planning efforts and can participate in the process.
Monthly meetings can be scheduled to coincide with other meetings and events to maximize efficiency, or re-scheduled as needed. ESA will consult with City staff as to the format and desired outcomes of these meetings, as well to identify the appropriate attendees. ESA assumes in the budget
ESA Exhibit A
that one ESA staff will remotely attend the monthly meetings (up to 1 hour) for a project duration of 12 months.
This task includes ESA’s management of efforts related to the Scope of Work, schedule, budget, and invoicing, as well as general internal and external team management. ESA will assist City staff with meeting administrative grant requirements such as the quarterly reporting required by the CCC. This task includes a total of 60 hours of project management time, which assumes an average of 5 hours per month over the 12-month life of the project.
ESA Team will continue project management through the remainder of the project, tentatively through October 2023.
Task 1 Assumptions:
• City staff will coordinate representative attendance from key City departments • The kickoff meeting will be held at a City building and will be up to 2 hours in length • ESA Team attendance will be in-person and will include the project director, project manager, and a representative from Kearns and West. Other team members may attend remotely.
Task 1 Deliverables:
• Kickoff meeting and project schedule (completed)
• Up to 7 monthly conference calls with the City (April through October 2023) Task 2. Public Engagement
ESA and Kearns & West (K&W) will draw from our experience with prior SLR projects to assist the City with public outreach and stakeholder involvement for the project by developing an engagement plan, an interactive web-map, and presentation materials as well as conducting meetings with the public and key stakeholders.
Task 2.1 Community Engagement Plan
ESA team prepared a draft community engagement plan with prior City staff. This working Community Engagement Plan will be confirmed/updated with the City.
Following the project kick off meeting, Kearns and West will prepare a Community Engagement Plan, which will serve as a guide to provide communities the opportunity to engage in the vulnerability assessment and for developing educational tools to immerse the community in the process. The Community Engagement Plan will also anticipate the process for communities to provide input on selecting preferred strategies in the second phase of the project. The Plan will include elements necessary for the consultant team and City staff to create pathways for active public engagement in the Project through developing an outreach and participation program for residents and stakeholders.
ESA Exhibit A
For this project, conducting a vulnerability assessment and identifying a range of possible sea-level rise adaptation strategies, opportunities for input include:
• The types and locations of community and environmental assets to address in the Vulnerability Assessment including environmental justice concerns. • Hazard mitigation and adaptation planning approaches, in the context of 1) applicable established regulations and requirements; 2) relative impacts on coastal, environmental, recreation, and fiscal resources; 3) opportunities for achieving multiple benefits, including other community goals and needs; and 4) assumptions of the vulnerability assessment.
The Community Engagement Plan will incorporate stakeholder analysis, an outreach program, a communications plan, programs & activities, roles and responsibilities, and a calendar. In addition to outlining methods for how residents will be engaged in the process through in person meetings, workshops, and digital engagement, the plan will identify additional outreach that the City should consider, including online surveys, partnerships with community organizations, etc. Particular consideration will be given to effective strategies for providing information to the public in understandable, relevant formats.
Task 2.2 Public Workshops
There will be two workshops to facilitate discussion on the Vulnerability Assessment and Adaptation Strategies. The first workshop, Public Workshop #1, will take place once the Vulnerability Assessment report draft is complete. The workshop will be structured to allow for community members to learn about sea level rise and will include a large group format presentation and structured small group breakout stations with collaborative, hands-on activities to allow for cross-pollination of ideas between participants. The second workshop, Webinar Workshop #1, will take place virtually to present the same information from the in-person public workshop to provide the community with various options and dates to participate. This workshop will provide an additional opportunity for community members to learn and engage.
Vulnerability Assessment and Adaptation Strategies Presentation ESA will develop materials on the findings of the Vulnerability Assessment to be presented in the Public Workshop 1 as well as excerpted for meetings with the City Planning Commission, City Council, and Council Committees. The presentation includes a slideshow and graphics that will also be presented in Virtual Public Workshop 1.
Task 2.3 City Presentations
ESA will prepare for and attend up to two presentations on the Coastal Vulnerability Assessment and Adaptation Strategies to the City Planning Commission, City Council, and/or Council Committees.
ESA Exhibit A
ESA will prepare draft presentation materials for the City’s review and revised final presentation materials in response to comments. ESA assumes that presentation materials will consist of PowerPoint presentations and handouts previously prepared for the workshops.
Task 2.4 Interactive SLR Web-map
A web –map allows the public to view and manipulate GIS maps on the internet without special software and helps make this technical information accessible to the public. A City-based web page can be helpful in making project information accessible. A web-map for Malibu’s Vulnerability Assessment would include the coastal hazard maps developed in Task 3.2 and the Assets identified in Task 3.3 for the public to interact with and explore potential sea-level rise impacts on the Malibu coastline for themselves.
Task 2.5 Communication Materials Development
Following the draft community engagement plan, the ESA team (Kearns and West) will assume responsibility for the following communication materials that were previously identified for City staff to complete in support of the two public workshops:
• Online, Press and Social Media
o Social media posting language and graphics for City to post on its social media channels
o Press release language for City to format and coordinate with media (radio, newspaper)
• Informational materials
o Draft press release for the project for the City to distribute o Review of content for City-made flyers to promote the project/workshops for the City to distribute
o Post card design provided for City to print and distribute • Partner engagement
o Draft email notifications for pubic and stakeholder engagement for the City to distribute
Task 2.6 Public Survey
Residents of Malibu are highly engaged online, and previous projects in Malibu have shown that digital engagement through online survey tools reach a wide audience. For the Malibu Bluffs Parkland, almost 10% of residents in Malibu responded to the survey. This indicates that an online tool, whether through SurveyMonkey or a more integrated platform, can more readily immerse the community in sea level rise education and input opportunities for the vulnerability assessment and adaptation workshops. The consultant team will provide survey questions for the City to incorporate into and implement the online survey.
ESA Exhibit A
Task 2 Assumptions:
• Preparation and presentation at two Public Workshops held virtually, for example one Draft Vulnerability Assessment Workshop and one Adaptation Strategies Workshop. • Up to 4 members of the ESA Team will attend each virtual workshop (two facilitators and an associate from Kearns and West and the ESA Project Manager). • Presentations will include hazard and asset maps produced in Task 3 (for vulnerability) and content from Task 5 (adaptation). No new content will be prepared for the workshop. • Up to two presentations to City Planning Commission, City Council, and/or Council Committees using PowerPoint.
• Up to one ESA team member will attend each City Planning Commission, City Council, and/or Council Committees meeting.
• The City will host a webpage for the project upon which deliverables and other relevant materials may be posted (e.g. links to relevant background studies as well as web-map developed for the project).
• City will post social media content and distribute emails and other informational materials for the project workshops
• City will create and implement the public online survey and summarize the results. • The layers uploaded to the web-map will be similar to the maps prepared under Tasks 3.2 and
3.3 and will not require substantive changes to symbology or content.
Task 2 Deliverables:
• Draft and Final Community Engagement Plan (completed) • Public Workshops (October and November 2023, January 2024) • Preparation of logistics memo before workshops (September and December 2023) • Large-scale map printouts before workshops (September and December 2023) • Draft and final slide deck before workshops (September and December 2023) • Workshop attendance and facilitation (October and November 2023, January 2024) • Memorandum summarizing workshop attendance, format and presentation, input, and major discussion themes (November 2023, February 2024)
• Up to two presentations to City Planning Commission, City Council, and/or Council Committees (September 2023)
• Communications materials to support the public workshops, including draft social media post language, draft press release, draft stakeholder engagement emails, review of City-made project flyers (August 2023)
• Two public online survey questions for each public workshop (August 2023) • Draft and final presentation materials (September 2023)
ESA Exhibit A
• Interactive web-map (August 2023)
Task 3 Technical Analysis (Completed)
ESA will establish existing coastal hazard conditions at Malibu, select sea-level rise scenarios for analysis, compile sea-level rise hazard data, inventory the City’s development, infrastructure, and natural coastal resources potentially at risk to sea-level rise, and tabulate the economic value of these built and natural assets to support the Vulnerability Assessment in Task 4.
Task 3.1 Existing Conditions
ESA will begin Task 3 by documenting existing conditions in Malibu to be incorporated into the Draft Vulnerability Assessment. Existing Conditions will establish the planning context and identify existing processes, such as current coastal flooding, creek and lagoon flooding, coastal sediment processes, and existing adaptation measures such as coastal armoring. ESA will compile and describe the information and data derived from existing studies, reports, and data sources listed below in a memorandum:
• USGS’s CoSMoS 3.0 coastal flooding and erosion projections • FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps and Flood Insurance Study for Malibu Creek and the City’s coastline.
• State of California Sea Level Rise Guidance – 2018 Update • Rising Seas in California, An Update on Sea-Level Rise Science • 2012 National Research Council’s Sea-Level Rise for the Coast of California, Oregon and Washington: Past, present, and Future
• California Coastal Commission 2015 Sea Level Rise Policy Guidance • California Coastal Commission Local Coastal Program Update Guide • California Coastal Commission 2018 Residential Adaptation Policy Guidance (Draft) • Safeguarding California Plan: 2018 Update, California’s Climate Adaptation Strategy • California Adaptation Planning Guide
• Los Angeles County Public Beach Facilities Sea-Level Rise Vulnerability Assessment • Los Angeles County Coastal Regional Sediment Management Plan • Regional AdaptLA: Coastal Impacts Planning in the Los Angeles Region (ESA and Terra Costa hazard maps)
• Pathways to resilience: adapting to sea level rise in Los Angeles (Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Technical Report, Volume 1427, Special Issue, September 2018) • Las Virgenes-Malibu Council of Governments Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan General Plan
• Local Coastal Program
ESA Exhibit A
In ESA’s review of available data and studies, ESA will identify any critical data gaps for the assessment. To address critical data gaps, ESA will develop a set of reasonable assumptions for use in the assessment and/or identify additional data collection or studies that could be performed in the future as part of implementing the Adaptation Plan in subsequent phases of this project. As part of developing the Existing Conditions, ESA will define coastal sub-areas for Malibu. It is important to define sub-areas in Malibu to properly characterize the range of shoreline typology (e.g. low beach, tall bluff, lagoon), wave exposure, geomorphic processes, and level/type of development so that appropriate adaptation measures can be applied in the Adaptation Strategies task and second phase of the project. ESA anticipates defining between three and five sub-areas.
Task 3.2 Sea-level Rise Hazard Analysis
Define Sea-Level Rise Scenarios
ESA will define a set of sea-level rise planning scenarios in coordination with the City that provide a defensible basis for an efficient vulnerability assessment that can be clearly articulated to the public and stakeholders and accepted by the CCC. The sea-level rise scenarios will be selected to represent the following scenarios per the City’s Request for Proposals and the 2018 OPC Guidance recommendations to aid in planning and understanding the worst-case scenario for projected time horizons:
Extreme Risk Aversion (H++) Scenario: for the critical infrastructure, and other development as appropriate.
Medium-High Risk Aversion Scenario: for all other built and natural assets.
ESA will recommend sea-level rise scenarios that will be associated with the planning horizons for midcentury (e.g. 2050/2060) and late century (e.g. 2100). For efficiency, ESA assumes that two sea-level amounts will be selected to represent the Medium-High Risk Aversion Scenario for the project, and that the same two SLR amounts will be used to evaluate the Extreme Risk Aversion Scenario. ESA will review vertical land motion (i.e. regional tectonic uplift and local subsidence) and identify implications to relative sea-level rise for the City.
Flooding and Erosion Mapping Analysis
The ESA team will review CoSMoS hazard outputs and compare with hazard information previously prepared by ESA and TerraCosta for the study area during the Adapt LA project. ESA proposes to quantitatively analyze the selected sea-level rise scenarios using existing hazard modeling outputs produced by USGS (CoSMoS 3.0) for flooding and erosion in addition to wave run-up hazards by ESA (AdaptLA, shown on coastalresilience.org).
ESA Exhibit A
ESA will analyze coastal erosion and flooding hazards representing storm conditions and chronic (nonstorm) conditions for existing conditions and the selected sea-level rise amounts. The following sea-level rise related coastal hazards will be evaluated:
• Tidal inundation (non-storm)
o Extent of high water such as a “king tide” event with existing topography in the City. o Groundwater level response to sea-level rise in low-lying areas using projected tide levels as surrogates for groundwater levels.
• Storm flooding from a 100-year event
o Coastal flooding, lagoon flooding, wave run-up and overtopping o Nearshore wave heights to evaluate pier exposure.
o Lagoon flooding accounting for geomorphic response to SLR using the approach ESA developed and applied for AdaptLA and a high-level qualitative assessment of the effects of fluvial discharge.
• Coastal erosion
o Historic and future changes in bluff erosion.
o Beach width changes due to sea-level rise. ESA will apply CoSMoS and/or AdaptLA hazard mapping outputs to determine beach widths for the Vulnerability Assessment.
Alternatively, ESA may utilize our two-line beach width model that applies the Bruun rule and historic shoreline and bluff erosion rates. ESA proposesto use our 2-line shore response model in Phase 2 to analyze adaptation scenarios. If ESA's review of the CoSMoS and AdaptLA erosion results indicates that it may be more efficient to perform 2-line modeling for the VA “do-nothing scenario,” ESA will use the 2-line model in place of using the CoSMoS and AdaptLA results.
The above hazards will be analyzed using mapping outputs from one or more of the above mentioned existing sources. ESA will summarize the various data for discussion with the City and selection of appropriate hazard maps. Selected hazard maps will be compiled for analysis in the Vulnerability Assessment and presented on the web-map, PDF maps and engagement materials (posters and presentations).
ESA Exhibit A
Task 3.3 Coastal Resources Assessment
ESA will work with the City department staff to identify the City’s assets and critical assets that are most critical and vulnerable to sea-level rise impacts. It is assumed that the primary source for Asset data will be the AdaptLA study and that City staff will collect and provide any other relevant asset data that should be included in the Vulnerability Assessment in GIS format. The coastal resources assessment will include tabulating the following assets:
• Coastal Development and Coastal Dependent Development o Residential
o Commercial and Visitor-serving development
o Public infrastructure (e.g. roads, bridges, utilities) o Critical infrastructure
o Construction altering natural shorelines
• Public Access and Recreation
o Beach width and associated access and recreation functions o California Coastal Trail
• Coastal Habitat
o Beaches
o Wetlands and Estuarine Habitats
o Environmentally Sensitive Habitats
o Other Marine Resources
• Socio-Economic Impacts
o Vulnerable population groups, such as the elderly, renters, and seasonal residents as well as low-income and non-white communities
• Water Quality
o Potential flooding and inundation of contaminated sites or treatment systems • Archeological and paleontological resources
o Archaeological resources, historic-period built resources, Native American cultural resources, and paleontological resources.
The inventoried AdaptLA asset data and any additional pertinent data from the City will be organized into a geodatabase for the Vulnerability Assessment and presented on the web-map, PDF maps and engagement materials as needed. The actual list of assets that will be incorporated into the Vulnerability Assessment will be developed and agreed upon with the City at the beginning of this task. The Vulnerability Assessment (Task 4) will group the assets into asset categories, describe each asset category exposure to sea-level rise hazards, sensitivity of the asset to hazard impacts, the adaptive capacity of the asset, and consequences from impacts.
ESA Exhibit A
Task 4. Vulnerability Assessment (Completed)
ESA has completed the first draft vulnerability assessment. ESA will respond to comments from City staff, including a potential conference call to discuss comments. The hazard maps selected in Task
3.1 will be overlaid on the asset inventory developed in Task 3.2 to produce vulnerability maps. The potentially impacted assets will be quantified and tabulated, and asset categories will be assessed for vulnerability considering the exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity of asset categories. The results will be presented in a Draft Vulnerability Assessment to be reviewed by City staff; ESA will make one round of edits prior to sharing the draft for public input. Feedback from the community/stakeholders and the public will be incorporated into the report to develop the Final Vulnerability Assessment.
For each asset category, asset vulnerability will be assessed and mapped based on the exposure mapping, asset inventory, and consideration of each asset’s sensitivity and adaptive capacity. For each asset category, a sensitivity rating will be assigned that characterizes the degree of impact that would result from a given amount of exposure (inundation or erosion).
ESA anticipates providing an initial assessment of asset sensitivity and adaptive capacity based on professional judgement; ESA assumes City staff will coordinate with relevant departments to review and verify these factors during the City review of the Draft Vulnerability Assessment. The vulnerability mapping will assess vulnerability to natural resources (beaches, bluffs, and lagoons), the built environment (property and infrastructure including utilities and storm drain systems), vulnerable populations, and public access. Vulnerability will be assessed for the asset categories listed in the RFP, and consistent with CCC guidelines:
• Coastal Development and Coastal Dependent Development o Vulnerability of development will be evaluated as described above. • Public Access and Recreation
o Vulnerability of public access and recreation will be evaluated based on the beach width analysis results as well as projected erosion and flooding impacts to coastal access points. • Coastal Habitat / Ecology
o In order to assess coastal habitat vulnerability, the ESA team will summarize the ecological assets within the hazard zones and how they will be impacted by sea-level rise. This will focus on characterizing the existing estuarine, coastal bluff, and beach habitats for existing conditions, and then using information from the physical modeling tasks to evaluate the future conditions. ESA proposes to use ESA’s Habitat Evolution Model (HEM), the California Sea-level Affecting Marshes Model (CA-SLAMM), or another custom GIS model to assess Malibu Lagoon habitat change with sea-level rise. ESA will work with the City to select the appropriate model(s) for the project. ESA will then use habitat evolution modeling to assess the future vulnerability of the different habitat types in Malibu Lagoon.
ESA will evaluate beach ecology along the Pacific shoreline by interpreting beach width results from ESA’s two-line model referenced above. ESA team members, Dr. Richard
ESA Exhibit A
Ambrose, PhD and Dr. Karen Martin, PhD, will provide input on the methodology and review and interpretation of results to inform the habitat vulnerability assessment based on their research and expertise on Malibu beach ecology, rocky intertidal habitat, Malibu Lagoon, and key species such as grunion.
• Socio-Economic Impacts
o Vulnerable population groups will be identified based on impacts sea-level rise related hazards could have on community members most at-risk, including the elderly, renters, seasonal residents, low-income households, and non-white communities. • Water Quality
o ESA will evaluate potential contaminated site flooding and inundation will be analyzed where applicable and potential impacts to treatment systems. • Archeological and paleontological resources
o ESA will identify potential flood and erosion impacts to any known archeological and paleontological resource based on maps provided by the City, if available.
From the Vulnerability Assessment, ESA will identify trigger points at which specific sub-areas, critical assets or coastal resources could be impacted by SLR. These triggers will help to define the timing of needed adaptation measures. Example triggers include amount of observed sea-level rise, minimum beach width or development offset from bluff edge (see Section 9 for an example table of adaptation triggers developed for the Pacifica LCP Update). The vulnerabilities and the consequences identified in this assessment will help prioritize planning efforts to account for the urgency (time horizon) of each impact, and the importance of each impact on the community and resources.
Task 4 Assumptions:
• City will provide one consolidated set of staff comments on the Draft Vulnerability Assessment that will include City department staff input on asset sensitivity and adaptive capacity. Comments will be inherently consistent.
• Trigger points will be developed at a high level for the asset categories listed above. Specific triggers for individual adaptation actions/areas will be developed in the second phase for the Adaptation Plan analysis.
Task 4 Deliverables:
• Draft and Final Vulnerability Assessment reports (August 2023) • Presentation materials for Public Workshop 1 on the Draft Vulnerability Assessment (September 2023)
Task 5. Adaptation Strategies and Policies
ESA will develop a list of applicable adaptation measures for evaluation and review with the City and community. Preferred adaptation measures will then be combined to create high-level potential Priority Adaptation Strategies specific to the various coastal sub-areas in Malibu. For the purposes of
ESA Exhibit A
this scope, ESA defines adaptation measures as the individual tools or options that are available for sea-level rise adaptation (e.g. beach nourishment, armoring, retreat policies, etc.) and adaptation strategies as an initial or high-level strategy for combining one or more measures over time in a potential adaptation scenario or pathway (e.g. nourish beach in near-term, armor backshore in midterm, raise structures in long-term).
Task 5.1 Identify Adaptation Measures
ESA will develop a matrix of adaptation measures (individual tools) that could be employed in Malibu to alleviate the vulnerabilities of public and private coastal resources in the City through 2100 identified in Task 4. ESA will evaluate each measure for effectiveness, trade-offs, and relative costs in addition to community values identified in the first public workshop. Consistent with CCC Guidance, a variety of adaptation measures will be considered, including traditional coastal engineering and nature-based or green infrastructure solutions, and multi-objective measures that incorporate environmental considerations and a holistic approach, rather than focusing on independent or single-purpose solutions for protection. Adaptation measures will be compiled from various categories: policy measures, non-structural measures (beach nourishment, sediment management), structural measures (shoreline armoring, floodwalls, building/road elevation) and hybrid measures (low wall, cobbles and sand cover). An example matrix is provided in Section 9 from our work on the Pacifica LCP which lists the pros and cons of various adaptation measures along with high level suitability for the various sub-areas of coastline. ESA will also consider innovative measures such as living sea walls with input from Dr. Ambrose, as well as artificial offshore reefs.
The result of this task will be a draft SLR adaptation memorandum with the adaptation measures matrix that will be discussed in Public Workshop 2. In addition, a summary memorandum including feedback received during the workshop and ESA recommendations will be created as part of the community engagement plan. These documents will be the basis for the development of the Adaptation Plan and draft Local Coastal Program policies in the second phase of the LCP update.
Materials from the adaptation measures memorandum will be reviewed in Public Workshop 2 to communicate the available adaptation options and gather feedback from the public and stakeholders.
Community input will inform the City and ESA of the priorities to consider when developing the adaptation strategies.
Task 5.2 Prioritize Adaptation Strategies
ESA will develop high-level potential Priority Adaptation Strategies that are tailored for each of the various sub-areas of Malibu’s coastline. The Strategies will be comprised of the preferred adaptation measures resulting from the analysis in Task 5.1 and community input received in Task 3.1. Per CCC guidance, the Prioritized Adaptation Strategies will include the following themes:
• Accommodation
• Protection
ESA Exhibit A
• Retreat
• Hybrids of the above
Adaptation measures will be categorized by costs and relative timeframe for implementation. The prioritized adaptation strategies will be organized in a list for each sub-area. The specific timing of each adaptation strategy will be determined in the second phase of the project as part of the Adaptation Plan analysis.
To prepare for the second phase of the project, ESA can work with the City to identify relevant agencies and departments needed to scope and analyze each adaptation strategy for the adaptation plan.
Task 5 Assumptions:
• One Priority Adaptation Strategy consisting of one or more measures will be developed for each coastal sub-area, based on evaluation of the adaptation measures matrix and community input. • Priority Adaptation Strategies will be developed at a high level with relative timing. The ESA team can perform detailed analysis of engineering quantities and costs, trigger timing, and economic cost-benefit analysis in the second phase of the project.
Task 5 Deliverables:
• Adaptation Measures Matrix (August 2023)
• Adaptation measures evaluation and recommendations summary memorandum based on results from Public Workshop 1. (September 2023)
• Prioritized Adaptation Strategies and Policies (February 2024)
ESA Exhibit A
Contingency Items (NOT INCLUDED IN BUDGET)
ESA’s budget estimate includes a contingency for optional tasks that may benefit the project. The various items that may warrant use of contingency budget are described below.
Optional Task 1 items
CCC Staff Coordination
ESA recommends the City consider coordinating with California Coastal Commission (CCC) staff near the beginning of the project and at key milestones in the preparation of the Coastal Vulnerability Assessment and Adaptation Strategies. ESA has included the following scope of work for an optional CCC staff coordination task for the City’s consideration and can provide a cost proposal for this task at the City’s request.
CCC staff is charged with evaluating LCP updates for Coastal Act consistency and forwarding to the Commission a recommendation regarding LCP certification. As its formal review comes at the very end of the process, the CCC staff’s decision in this regard can have substantial implications for project schedule, budget, and process; CCC-suggested modifications could involve substantive LCP revisions that could trigger subsequent reviews by the City Council and CCC. For these reasons, ESA recommendsthat City staff consider focused meetings with CCC staff at key project milestones. Three such meetings are recommended for this first phase, although additional focused meetings may be necessary:
1. The first meeting would occur at the start of the project phase (Task 1) to discuss the City’s work program for the first and subsequent phases of the Coastal Vulnerability Assessment and LCP update, project timelines, review cycles, and protocols for communications with CCC staff. The meeting could also include a discussion of major staff-directed changes the City would like to make to the LCP at the outset of the LCP update effort (alternatively, this discussion could be deferred to the second phase of the project). ESA proposes that this meeting be attended by City staff only.
2. The second meeting would occur early in the Vulnerability Assessment phase (Task 1), with the purpose of briefing CCC staff on the sea-level rise scenarios, methodology, and findings from the Vulnerability Assessment.
3. The third meeting would occur early during the development of Adaptation Strategies (Task
5.1), with the purpose of briefing CCC staff on possible adaptation measures. ESA would also share public input received from Public Workshop #1, which will inform the City and ESA of community values and priorities.
ESA expects that City staff would take the lead in coordinating and facilitating CCC coordination.
However, ESA assumes it would participate in up to two meetings, potentially by phone or internet, and to be on hand to support City staff, as needed, within the available budget for these tasks.
ESA Exhibit A
Optional Task 2 Items
Additional Workshops
An additional workshop could be added in the middle of the process that is focused on informing residents to increase education opportunities and to increase the opportunities for community input to help guide the study. Given that this is a citywide project, holding each workshop twice (different locations, two different date/times) could help to widen the number of participants and range of perspectives.
If the City added a third workshop, ESA suggests the following sequencing: The first workshop could be structured to introduce project, focus on providing info about sea level rise trends and implications, and engage participants in discussions so that they have a chance to ask questions and get information about what they are most concerned about. The first workshop could also include a discussion about potential vulnerabilities, to help guide the team’s research and analysis. The second and third workshops could be structured to share conclusions of the team’s vulnerability analysis (second workshop) and adaption measures (third workshop), and solicit feedback, answer questions, and hear additional ideas for consideration.
Additional City Council Meetings
ESA may present at more than two City Council Meetings.
Online Survey
Residents of Malibu are highly engaged online, and previous projects in Malibu have shown that digital engagement through online survey tools reach a wide audience. For the Malibu Bluffs Parkland, almost 10% of residents in Malibu responded to the survey. This indicates that an online tool, whether through SurveyMonkey or a more integrated platform, can more readily immerse the community in sea level rise education and input opportunities for the vulnerability assessment.
Pop-Up Outreach
Pop-up workshops, sometimes known as tactical urbanism, are an engaging way to bring the community together around projects and plans using short-term and scalable activities out in the places where people gather. These are especially geared for community members that might not attend traditional workshops and to engage a broader sector of the community. Pop-up events could be implemented throughout the process to share information about sea-level rise and adaptation strategies, and provide opportunities for input outside of the traditional project workshops.
Presentations to Community and Stakeholder Organizations Existing community and stakeholder groups in Malibu have relationships with residents that could be beneficial in sharing information about sea-level rise and adaptation strategies. Presentations at existing groups using a “go to them” strategy can help increase the level of community engagement
ESA Exhibit A
in the project and engage different groups in the process. Presentations usually include a slide deck, a set of display boards and handouts that can be available for staff to use at additional meetings if desired.
Webpage
ESA and K&W could develop the City’s webpage for the project if desired by the City. A project webpage is an effective tool for community members to access information on the project process, educational materials and to provide opportunity for input. The webpage would be hosted on the City of Malibu’s website, and would be a central hub for the fact sheets, FAQs, online survey tools, community engagement summaries, and products related to adaptation measures for Malibu.
Video
Opportunities to develop educational materials on sea-level rise and potential vulnerabilities in Malibu could be shown graphically using video. Unlike other planning processes, sea-level rise planning has strong visual components. A project video hosted on the City’s website and the project webpage could provide a concise and engaging tool for residents to learn more about sea-level rise and adaptation measures in Malibu.
Informational Materials, FAQ
Informational material can be used to inform and engage residents on sea-level rise and adaptation measures and provide a consistent message for the project. ESA’s team recommends providing a visually engaging project information handout (or project factsheet) as an educational tool, with information about the project, why it is taking place, the schedule, and opportunities for engagement.
The factsheet can be both electronic and in print. Along with the fact sheet, ESA recommends a list of FAQs to be hosted on the City’s website that can be updated throughout the project if new items are brought to the City’s attention.
Included in this task could be opportunities to develop a concept like Game of Floods, which teaches players about sea-level rise adaptation choices. Like the award-winning version developed by Marin County, the game allows players to design solutions that protect entire communities as well as individual properties to address the permanent flooding impacts of sea-level rise.
Task 3 Optional Items
Asset Data Collection and Characterization
ESA may assist with additional asset data gathering beyond the existing AdaptLA asset data and additional assets provided by City staff. Additionally, ESA can conduct asset manager surveys to properly characterize the sensitivity and adaptive capacity of various assets to SLR hazards.
ESA Exhibit A
Hazard Mapping Analysis
ESA may perform updates to specific flooding and erosion hazards if the regional hazard mapping (AdaptLA and/or CoSMoS) are determined to mischaracterize hazard exposure for a given area. ESA can provide the option to refine and/or update ESA’s regional AdaptLA hazard mapping for the City based on the selected SLR scenarios, if needed or desired.
In addition to coastal flooding, ESA can assess flooding from fluvial sources using available information (e.g., FEMA Flood Insurance Studies) and ESA’s experience with increased precipitation associated with climate change. ESA can revise the lagoon flooding assessment ESA developed for AdaptLA to refine the results for Malibu Lagoon. ESA can also review available existing Malibu Creek flood hydraulics with lagoon and ocean levels to provide a high-level assessment of future flood levels for use in the vulnerability assessment.
Task 4 Optional Items
Vulnerability Assessment
ESA may revise the Vulnerability Assessment more than the one proposed iteration in response to public or stakeholder comments or Coastal Commission comment, and may assist the City to respond to technical comments received on the Final Vulnerability Assessment.
Task 5 Optional Items
Adaptation Pathways Schematics
The prioritized adaptation strategies can be developed into adaptation pathway schematics as a communication tool. An example schematic provided in Section (9) details various adaptation measures phased over time based on SLR amount.

Agenda Item # 4.A.
DISCUSSION: The proposed amendments will update the City’s LCP and Malibu Municipal Code (MMC) regulations for second units consistent with changes in State law. A second unit is another term for an accessory dwelling unit (ADU). The proposed amendments do not allow both second units and ADUs. The term “second unit” will be changed to “ADU” throughout both the LCP and MMC as provided in the draft amendments.
Background
The City Council initiated LCPA No. 18-002 and ZTA No. 18-004 in June 2018. A variety of factors, including the Woolsey Fire and COVID-19 meeting restrictions, delayed the Planning Commission’s ability to consider the amendments in a timely manner. The Planning Commission held three hearings on the ADU ordinance including a Special Planning Commission hearing on March 14, 2023. At that hearing the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the amendments with modifications. A complete history of the Planning Commission and City Council hearings on the ADU ordinance can be found in the recitals in the Exhibits (1, 2, and 3).
During the Commission’s deliberations on March 14th, straw votes were taken over the course of the deliberations and some of the votes were not unanimous, including provisions requiring two means of access and a requirement that property owners be required to report the ADU rental rates as opposed to being asked to report the rates to the City. The Planning Commission recommendations are further discussed below.
In preparation for the City Council hearing, the City Attorney's office provided recommended changes to the ADU regulations in the MMC. These changes were intended to ensure that the language in the ordinance matches the language in the State ADU statute. These recommended changes resulted in a reorganization of the ordinance and the revision of some sections to ensure the proposed language was narrowly focused on the language used in the statute. These recommended changes did not result in substantial changes from what the Planning Commission approved.
Proposed ADU Ordinance
The proposed language found in Resolution 23-43 (Exhibit 1), Ordinance No. 510 (Exhibit 2) and Ordinance No. 511 (Exhibit 3) will update the City’s regulations for second units. Exhibits 4 and 5 are presented in underline/strikethrough format to highlight added and deleted language compared to existing codes.
In implementing this ADU ordinance the City is seeking to balance the issues relevant to development in the Coastal Zone with the policies put forward by State ADU law. With the proposed amendments, the MMC will include all required State standards and provide for ministerial processing of ADUs consistent with State law. Introductory 2
Agenda Item # 4.A.
language in the MMC makes it clear since ADU law does not supersede the Coastal Act, every new ADU will first be subject to analysis for compliance with the LCP before it is reviewed for compliance with the MMC. The proposed LCPA would require attached, detached, and converted (ADUs created from an existing accessory building) to obtain an Administrative Coastal Development Permit (ACDP) and meet the standards set forth in the LCP.
Review and Processing
Second units are currently allowed with an ACDP. The proposed permitting process for ADUs will be the same as for second units under the current code. That process includes requirements for public noticing, reporting Director approvals to the Planning Commission where, by majority vote, the Commission can require a full Coastal Development Permit (CDP) and the ability for the public to appeal the decision of the Director or Planning Commission, if a full CDP is required, to the City Council and in the appeal zone to the California Coastal Commission (CCC).
If a project does not meet the definition of development, then the project would be processed per the MMC. Consistent with State law, there are two options for ADU processing in the MMC (refer to the new MMC Chapter 17.44 in Exhibit 3). First, if a project is one of four specific, limited types, it would be processed with a building permit only. Second, if the ADU does not meet one of those four types, then the ADU would be processed with an Administrative Plan Review (APR). Some ADUs, even if they are not considered development in the LCP, may require upgrades to the Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS), which will require a CDP (LIP Section 13.29). In these cases, the APR will be processed separately from the OWTS only CDP.
Under the proposed ordinance and consistent with California Coastal Commission guidance, ADUs created from a habitable space inside an existing single-family dwelling such as a bedroom (Junior ADU) or inside an existing single-family residence, otherwise known as Internal ADUs are not considered development for purposes of the LCP and as such, will be processed under the MMC with an Administrative Plan Review (APR) which is a Director approved ministerial project. ADUs proposed in a non-habitable space such as a garage would require an ACDP.
There are no noticing-requirements for APRs. APRs can be sent back to the director for a “Request for Review.” This is just a second look by the Director. Pursuant to MMC
17.04.220, an appeal to the Planning Commission cannot be made unless a Site Plan Review for height or reduction of setbacks is proposed with the project. In the case of an ADU proposed for an existing single-family house, height and setbacks would remain the same.
3
Agenda Item # 4.A.
State law allows both a Junior ADU (JADU) and an ADU to be built on the same property. While there could be an increase in cases where someone wants both a JADU and an ADU, staff has no way of determining which properties might choose to build both. As required by State law, JADUs are subject to an owner-occupancy requirement.
The property owner would need to reside in either the JADU or the main residence in order to have a JADU. An ADU that is permitted after January 1, 2020, but before January 1, 2025, is not subject to any owner-occupancy requirement. Unless applicable law requires otherwise, all ADUs that are permitted on or after January 1, 2025 are subject to an owner-occupancy requirement.
Short-Term Rentals (STRs)
ADUs permitted ministerially under MMC Section 17.44.060(A) must be rented for terms longer than 30 days1. For ADUs not processed pursuant to MMC Section 17.44.060(A), State ADU law provides that cities may require that an ADU be used for rentals of terms longer than 30 days. The proposed LCPA and MMC prohibit STRs in ADUs in all instances. While the City’s STR ordinance, considered but not approved by the CCC, did not prohibit STRs in ADUs, the Planning Commission felt that since ADU laws were intended to increase the amount of long-term housing, STRs should be prohibited in ADUs.
ADUs processed under the MMC and LCP would be required to record a deed restriction. Currently, staff has been adding a deed restriction when a project proposes a second unit, restricting a property to only one second unit meeting the definition of LIP Section 2.1. The LCPA and MMC proposes additional deed restrictions as part of the ADU Ordinance that will require the property to comply with restrictions such as restrictions against sold separate from the primary dwelling, restrictions against renting ADUs for less than 30 days, and restrictions against increasing the approved size of an ADU without City approval among others.
Relationship to Housing Element and Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA)
The Housing and Community Development (HCD) direction on updating housing elements as it relates to ADUs indicates housing elements must include a description of zoning available to permit ADUs, including development standards and analysis of potential constraints on the development of ADUs. The element must include programs as appropriate to address identified constraints. Cities can use ADUs to meet up to 15 percent of their RHNA. As part of the Housing Element, a jurisdiction must include an analysis of the anticipated affordability of ADUs in order to determine which RHNA income category (very low, low, moderate, and above moderate) they should be counted toward.
1 Gov. Code, §65852.2, subds. (a)(6) and (e)(4)
4
Agenda Item # 4.A.
The ADU Ordinance includes a requirement that property owners report the actual rent charged for an ADU to assist the City in identifying sites to meet RHNA. Language in the draft ordinance “asked” the property owner to provide the rental information but a majority of the Planning Commissioners voted to “require” the property owner to report the information. In a recent discussion with HCD, they indicated they would accept the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) formula for determining ADU affordability for the City’s RHNA.
As part of the 6th Cycle (2021-2029) Housing Element process, SCAG conducted an affordability analysis2 for determining affordability in order to provide local governments in the SCAG region with assumptions for ADU affordability that can be used to assign ADUs to income categories. Efforts were made to reflect the geographic distribution, size, and other characteristics of ADUs across the various counties/subregions. Los Angeles County is separated into two categories in order to better account for the disparities in housing costs between coastal and inland jurisdictions. The City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element is currently being updated in response to HCD comments and will rely upon the SCAG formula to determine affordability.
Development Standards
The proposed development standards for ADUs in the MMC and LCP are summarized below.
Unit Size
For ADUs processed under the MMC, state law sets a minimum size of 850 square feet for a studio or one-bedroom and 1,000 square feet for a two or more bedroom unit.
Those minimum structure sizes are included in the MMC to ensure consistency with the State ADU law.
In the LCP, the Planning Commission recommended a minimum of 400 square feet and a maximum of 1,200 square feet for an ADU. Establishing a maximum size of 1,200 square feet would be consistent with the square footage allowed for temporary housing for fire rebuilds. After the Woolsey Fire, the Council adopted Ordinance No. 445 which allowed fire rebuild applicants to place temporary housing on their properties not to exceed 1,200 square feet3. That decision was made to ensure a trailer or other prefabricated structures could be placed on the property to accommodate the residents comfortably until they were able to rebuild their homes. Some residents invested in prefabricated temporary homes that could potentially be permitted as ADUs after the rebuild of their homes. Currently second units are limited to 900 square feet in size.
Height
2 https://scag.ca.gov/sites/main/files/file-attachments/adu_affordability_analysis_120120v2.pdf?1606868527 3 The temporary housing regulations were placed in MMC Section 17.40,040.A.18. 5
Agenda Item # 4.A.
The proposed allowed height for an ADU in the MMC is 16 feet above existing or finished grade, whichever results in the lower building height. A detached ADU may be up to 18 feet in height if it is created on a lot with an existing or proposed dwelling located within one-half mile from a major transit stop or is a detached ADU created on a lot with an existing or proposed multifamily dwelling. An ADU that is attached to the primary dwelling may not exceed 25 feet in height or the height limitation imposed by the underlying zone that applies to the primary dwelling, whichever is lower.
For the LCP, the Planning Commission recommended a height limit of 16 feet above grade as measured from existing or finished grade, whichever results in the lower building height. The Director may allow heights up to 24 feet with a Site Plan Review.
When a legally established accessory structure is demolished and replaced with a new structure for the purposes of creating an ADU, the replacement structure may not exceed 18 feet in height. The current allowed height for a second unit is 18 feet and up to 24 feet for a flat roof and 28 feet for a pitched roof with a Site Plan Review.
The Commission also agreed to make the existing language in the LCP limiting a second story to 2/3rds of the first story consistent with the language in the MMC. Since the language in the MMC is the most restrictive and is currently used by staff when determining 2/3rds, staff revised the 2/3rds language in the LCP to be consistent with the MMC language. The language in both documents would now indicate that the “second floor area plus the area of vaulted ceilings above eighteen (18) feet in height shall not exceed two-thirds the first-floor area...”. Having consistent language in both documents will avoid any questions or confusion in the future. This revised language would apply to both ADUs and single-family dwellings.
Setbacks
Consistent with State law, in the MMC the proposed side and rear setback for ADUs is four (4) feet. In the ordinance considered by the Planning Commission a five (5) foot side and rear setbacks were required on properties without two means of access to a highway. The Planning Commission requested that staff add a cross reference between the two sections to avoid confusion; however, the section relative to having two means of access was deleted consistent with Planning Commission direction to utilize street width as the criteria to determine whether a property can have an ADU or increased development standards were required so a cross reference was no longer needed. In the LCP, detached, attached, and converted ADUs must meet the current setback requirements for a second unit.
Parking
The parking requirement for an ADU is one space which is consistent with the existing second unit regulations. This parking requirement would be the same in both the MMC 6
Agenda Item # 4.A.
and LIP. Consistent with State law, parking is not required for JADUs which would be processed under the MMC.
At their March 7, 2022 meeting, based on concern about the cumulative impact of allowing ADUs, the Planning Commission had requested additional studies and referrals.
On August 22, 2022, the City Council considered the request and in response to the Commission’s concerns directed staff to minimize changes to the LCP by utilizing most of the existing second unit regulations, which currently protect coastal resources and public access.
In order to be consistent with State law, the proposed MMC modifications do not require replacement parking for a converted garage and also include other exceptions to provide parking. One such parking exemption is that no parking is required when an ADU is located within 0.5-mile walking distance of public transit. These exceptions have been removed from the LCPA per Planning Commission recommendation. ADUs processed under the LCP will require replacement parking.
After staff updated the ordinance to make parking and other development standards consistent with existing second unit regulations, Coastal Commission staff reviewed the revised draft and indicated that the City should, where appropriate, try to harmonize the LIP changes with State ADU law, not just for parking requirements but other development standards as well.
The Planning Commission felt that since the City was entirely within in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ) there should be no exemptions or exceptions for providing on-site parking or reducing other development standards.
Road Width - VHFHSZ
The ordinance reviewed by the Planning Commission included language that required an increase in development standards, but did not prohibit an ADU, on lots that did not have two means of access with at least 24 feet in width to a highway. This language was similar to language in the Los Angeles County North Area Plan but in that code, ADUs were prohibited on properties that did not have two means of access with 24 feet in width to a highway. This same language is not included in the Santa Monica Mountains LCP which covers the County area directly abutting the City in the coastal zone. The Santa Monica Mountains LCP uses different standards for allowing ADUs such as distance from Pacific Coast Highway and the steepness of slopes on a property. Vehicular access must be from a street with a right of way of at least 60 feet.
The majority of the Planning Commission felt a better approach to address fire safety would be to follow existing Los Angeles County Fire Department requirements which require a 20-foot-wide width for roads serving two dwelling units. 7
Agenda Item # 4.A.
ADUs on Multifamily Properties
The proposed LCPA would not allow ADUs located inside multifamily dwellings. An ADU must have its own separate entrance. The proposed LCPA also prohibits ADUs attached to a multifamily structure but allows detached ADUs with an ACDP. The MMC has similar provisions as detached ADUs are allowed in the same manner as a detached ADU on a property with a single-family dwelling but ADUs, including a JADU, are not allowed inside a multifamily dwelling. ADUs are allowed in the non-habitable portions of a multifamily building such as a garage or storage area. Since increasing the number of dwelling units on existing multifamily properties in the City, especially if those units removed existing parking, would have a negative impact to both on-site wastewater systems and available parking, the proposed LCPA would not allow conversion of nonhabitable portions of a building to ADUs.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21080.9, California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to activities and approvals by the City as necessary for the preparation and adoption of an LCP amendment. This application is for an amendment to the LCP, which must be certified by the CCC before it takes effect. LIP Section 1.3.1 states that the provisions of the LCP take precedence over any conflict between the LCP and the City’s Zoning Ordinance. In order to prevent inconsistency between the LCP and the City’s Zoning Ordinance, if the LCP amendment is approved, the City must also approve the corollary amendment to the Zoning Ordinance. This amendment is necessary for the preparation and adoption of the LCPA and because they are entirely dependent on, related to, and duplicative of the exempt activity, they are subject to the same CEQA exemption.
In addition, the project is exempt from the requirements of CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 21080.17, which states that the CEQA does not apply to the adoption of local ordinances regulating the construction of second units and by CEQA Section 15282(h) that exempts adoption of an ordinance regarding second units in single-family and multifamily residential zones.
Furthermore, the Planning Director has analyzed the proposed amendments. CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 1 5061(b)(3), where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The Planning Director determined that the proposed amendments are required by State law and will not result in changes from existing development standards, such as density limits and environmental resource protection standards; consequently, there is no possibility the 8
Agenda Item # 4.A.
amendment will have a significant effect on the environment and accordingly, and the exemption set forth in Section 15061(b)(3) applies.

Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21080.9, California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to activities and approvals by the City as necessary for the preparation and adoption of an LCP amendment. This application is for an amendment to the LCP, which must be certified by the California Coastal Commission (CCC) before it takes effect. LCP Local Implementation Plan (LIP) Section 1.3.1 states that the provisions of the LCP take precedence over any conflict between the LCP and the City’s Zoning Ordinance. In order to prevent inconsistency between the LCP and the City’s Zoning Ordinance, if the LCP amendment is approved, the City must also approve the corollary amendment to the Zoning Ordinance. This amendment is necessary for the preparation and adoption of the LCPA and because they are entirely dependent on, related to, and duplicative of the exempt activity, they are subject to the same CEQA exemption.
In addition, the project is exempt from the requirements of the CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 21080.17, which states that the CEQA does not apply to the adoption of local ordinances regulating construction of second units and by CEQA Section 15282(h) that exempts adoption of an ordinance regarding second units in single-family and multifamily residential zones.
Furthermore, the City Council has analyzed the proposed amendments. CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 1 5061(b)(3), where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The City Council determined that the proposed amendments are required by State law and will not result in changes from existing development standards, such as density limits and environmental resource protection standards; consequently, there is no possibility the amendment will have a significant effect on the environment and accordingly, and the exemption set forth in Section 15061(b)(3) applies.
SECTION 3. Local Coastal Program Findings.
Based on evidence in the whole record, the City Council hereby finds that the proposed amendment meets the requirements of, and is in conformance with, the policies and requirements of Chapter 3 of the California Coastal Act.

SECTION 4. Zoning Text Amendment Findings.
Pursuant to Malibu Municipal Code Section 17.74.040, the City Council hereby makes the following findings:
A. The subject zoning text amendment is consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses and programs specified in the General Plan. The proposed amendment serves to enhance the Malibu General Plan Mission Statement, protect public safety and preserve Malibu’s natural and cultural resources.
B. The City Council held a public hearing, reviewed the subject zoning text amendment application for compliance with the City of Malibu General Plan, Malibu Municipal Code and the Malibu Local Coastal Program, and finds that the zoning text amendment is consistent and recommends approval.
SECTION 5. Local Coastal Program Amendment No. 18-002, Amendments to the Local Implementation Plan (LIP).
The City Council hereby amends the LIP as follows:
A. Add new definitions inserted in alphabetical order to LIP Section 2.1 (Definitions) to read as follows:
ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT - an attached or a detached residential dwelling unit that provides complete independent living facilities for one or more persons and is located on a lot with a proposed or existing primary residence. An accessory dwelling unit also includes the following:
