TO PROHIBIT PARKING ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF HERONDO
STREET BETWEEN PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY AND NORTH
FRANCISCA AVENUE FROM THE HOURS OF 2:00 A.M. TO 6 A.M.
WHEREAS, California Vehicle Code Section 22507(a) authorizes local agencies to restrict stopping, parking, or standing of vehicles on streets and highways after posting of appropriate signs giving notice of said restrictions; WHEREAS, Redondo Beach Municipal Code Section 3-7.1308, authorizes the City Manager to direct the installation of appropriate and sufficient signs giving notice that parking is prohibited during specified days and hours; WHEREAS, the lack of parking restrictions on the south side of Herondo Street between Pacific Coast Highway and North Francisca Avenue has led to occupancy of parking spaces by the same vehicles for extended periods of time, creating an inequity of parking for the public;
WHEREAS, restricting the overnight parking of vehicles on the south side of Herondo Street between Pacific Coast Highway and North Francisca Avenue will enhance the turnover and vacancy factor of parking spaces so as to promote an equitable distribution of public parking;
WHEREAS, the south side of Herondo Street between Pacific Coast Highway and North Francisca Avenue is located within the City’s Coastal Zone and the proposed change requires conformity with the City’s Certified Local Coastal Plan; WHEREAS, notice of the time and place of the public hearing where the Exemption Declaration and Coastal Development Permit would be considered was given pursuant to State law and local ordinances by publication in the Easy Reader, by posting the subject area every 200-feet along the street frontage, and by mailing notices to property owners within 300 feet and occupants within 100 feet of the exterior boundaries of the subject area; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Redondo Beach, California, has considered evidence presented by the Police Department, the Community Development Department, and other interested parties at the public hearing held on the 16 th day of

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDONDO BEACH, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY FIND:
RESOLUTION NO. CC-2404-027
SOUTH SIDE HERONDO ST PARKING RESTRICTION
PAGE NO. 2
1. In compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended (CEQA), and State and local guidelines adopted pursuant thereto, the parking restriction qualifies for CEQA categorical exemptions under Section 15060(c)(2) because the activity will not result in direct or reasonable foreseeable physical change in the environment and Section 15060(c)(3) as the activity is not a considered a project under CEQA Section 15378.
2. In accordance with Section 10-5.2218 of the Redondo Beach Municipal Code, the consideration of a Coastal Development Permit is consistent with the criteria set forth therein for the following reasons:
a) The proposed change to restrict overnight parking in the specified location is in conformity with the Certified Local Coastal Plan (LCP). Restricting overnight parking will not reduce the total on-street parking space inventory in the Coastal Zone, as specified in Section IV(f)(4) of the LCP. Restricting overnight parking will enhance the turnover and vacancy factor of parking spaces so as to promote an equitable distribution of parking for the public. b) The proposed change, if located between the sea (or the shoreline of any body of water located within the coastal zone) and the first public road paralleling the sea, is in conformity with the public access and public recreation policies of Chapter 3 of Division 20 of the Public Resource Code (commencing with Section 30200). The location on the south side of Herondo Street between Pacific Coast Highway and North Francisca Avenue is east of the first public road paralleling the sea, Harbor Drive, and therefore is not located between the sea and the first public road paralleling the sea. c) The decision-making body has complied with any CEQA responsibilities it may have in connection with the project, and that, in approving the proposed development, the decision-making body is not violating any CEQA prohibition that may exist on approval of projects for which there is a less environmentally damaging alternative or a feasible mitigation measure available. The parking restriction qualifies for CEQA categorical exemptions under Section 15060(c)(2) because the activity will not result in direct or reasonable foreseeable physical change in the environment and Section 15060(c)(3) as the activity is not a considered a project under CEQA Section 15378.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDONDO BEACH, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Based on the above findings, the City Council does hereby adopt Categorical Exemptions from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for the parking restriction and does hereby approve the Coastal Development Permit to prohibit parking on the south side of Herondo Street between Pacific Coast Highway and North Francisca Avenue from the hours of 2:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m..
