• Efficient, Responsive, and Effective City Services
• Well-Maintained Infrastructure
• Fiscally Responsible and Transparent City Government
• Inviting and Relevant City Facilities

BACKGROUND
On January 12, 2022, the City Council hosted a scoping session related to the preparation of a focused environmental impact report (EIR) for the renovation of the San Marino Center.

Discussed during the session were the preliminary findings from ELMT Consulting, the firm preparing the EIR, that altering the building façade from its original 1952 Modern Colonial Revival architectural style to the Spanish Mediterranean style (thereby matching the Crowell Public Library and other nearby public buildings) would likely result in a potentially significant impact to its cultural resource as a community meeting and gathering place. For the City Council to ultimately certify the EIR, it would have to make findings that would support a statement of overriding considerations, determining that the project benefits of the Spanish Mediterranean style outweighed the environmental impacts.

The San Marino Center Community Task Force was briefed by staff of the status of the environmental work and recommended unanimously that the City Council have the project architect modify the plans to Modern Colonial Revival at the same time the EIR is being finalized.

They recommended redesigning right away to have construction start this September instead of waiting for the conclusion of the environmental process in June 2022 after which design could commence, resulting in a January 2023 construction start.

The City Council subsequently directed the City Manager to have the project architect submit for City Council approval a cost proposal to modify the 95 percent completed drawings to comply with the Secretary of the Interior’s “Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring and Reconstructing Historic Buildings.” The intent of modifying the design would be to reduce the cultural resource impact of the building’s renovation from potentially significant to less than significant, allowing the City Council to adopt the EIR without making a statement of overriding considerations.

DISCUSSION
Crane Architectural Group (CAG), the project architect, submitted a cost proposal (Attachment 1) and has committed to completing the revised plans and specifications in time for the scheduled June 2022 certification of the EIR. To conform the plans to the Secretary of the Interior’s standards and guidelines, the Parks and Public Works Department solicited proposals from qualified historic preservation consultants to ensure the revised plans sufficiently and appropriately retain the building’s original exterior architecture.

Proposals were received from Kelly Sutherlin McLeod Architecture, Inc., IS Architecture and Kaplan Chen Kaplan Architects and Planners. After reviewing the proposals, the Department recommends Kelly Sutherlin McLeod Architecture (KSMA) based on its demonstrated experience with historically significant buildings such as the Huntington Japanese House and the Gamble House in Pasadena and their understanding of their role to assist the project architect to modify the renovation plans to adhere to the Secretary of the Interior’s standards.

KSMA will work closely with CAG on the changes necessary including restoring and rehabilitating the character defining features while allowing for subtle changes in massing, color and landscaping to visually connect it with the library. They will reference the historic preservation memorandum prepared by Chattel, Inc., (a historic preservation expert provided by ELMT Consultants), which is included in the project’s Initial Study, Appendix C-1 (Attachment 5) and the Secretary of the Interior’s standards.

With qualified guidance from KSMA, CAG is expected to revise the plans and specifications, review the modified designs with the Community Task Force, and complete the plan check review by June 2, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT & PROCUREMENT REVIEW
The adopted FY 2021-22 capital improvement plan budget includes $4,758,900 in account no. 394-40-4600-1000 (San Marino Center Renovation) for the preparation of plans, construction activities, environmental documentation, and construction management and inspection services.

An appropriation of $299,180 from the capital improvement fund reserves is required to amend

Page 6 of 326 ends

the CAG agreement ($229,200) and the historic preservation work by KSMA ($69,980). The Finance Director has reviewed this staff report for compliance with San Marino City Code §02.06.05.

LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney reviewed the staff report and has approved it to legal form.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the contract amendment with CAG and the professional services agreement with KSMA. If the Council concurs, an appropriate motion would be:
“I move to approve Amendment No. 3 to the professional design services agreement with Crane Architectural Group and increase the compensation amount in the agreement, as modified by Amendment No. 2, by an additional $229,200; approve a professional services agreement with Kelly Sutherlin McLeod Architecture, Inc., in the amount of $69,980 and appropriate $299,180 to account 394-40-4600-1000 (San Marino Center Renovation) from the capital reserves balance.”

Kelly Sutherlin McLeod Architecture, Inc. (KSMA) is an award-winning full services architecture practice, uniquely qualified to partner with the San Marino Center Renovation Project team. KSMA offers a depth of knowledge of principles of architectural planning and design as related to new construction as well as the preservation, restoration and rehabilitation of historically significant buildings in compliance with The Secretary of Interiors Standards (SOIS). KSMA has an established relationships with San Marino’s department of building/safety, fire and planning, developed while leading various projects located at the Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens during the past two decades. The City review process for these projects involved working closely with the City’s planning and building departments, and presenting at public planning commission hearings. KSMA exceeds the requirements of SOIS professional qualifications standards in architecture, historic architecture, and architectural history. KSMA has worked in the capacity of historic preservation consultant, and project/preservation architect, on numerous projects, for private and public clientele, involving landmarks with varying degree of significance and in a wide range of architectural styles. KSMA has the knowledge and skill to effectively consult with Crane Architectural Group and the City of San Marino on the San Marino Center Renovation Project (SMC).

KSMA is currently contracted with a local College District to evaluate the proposed design for a new performing arts center, designed by pfeifferpartners, for compliance with SOIS.

The proposed project is located within a group of historic districts, and directly adjacent to historic buildings. KSMA has provided similar services for UCLA, for compliance with the Standards of an addition to the historic Clark Library designed by ARG.

The Sedgwick Reserve is an irreplaceable resource
offering a rural refuge for a wide range of
interdisciplinary education and research. The ranch
became part of the Natural Reserve System after much
of the property was bequeathed to the University of
California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). The early ranch
property, along with additional lands acquired
separately by the Land Trust of Santa Barbara County
and others, today form the "Sedgwick Reserve." With
the goals of preserving this unique resource while
improving the user experience, UCSB proposed interior
and exterior improvements for the Sedgwick Reserve
Ranch House and commissioned the project team led
by KSMA to prepare a Detailed Project Program (DPP)
outlining the proposed rehabilitation efforts. The
resulting DPP established project objectives,
conceptual design solutions and the construction cost
budget. The multidisciplinary KSMA project team of
experienced architects, engineers, and technicians
worked closely with the Sedgwick Reserve to develop a
project design that addressed both the programmatic
and sustainability objectives within the context of the existing facility and its environment. The character
defining features of this 1950’s ranch style building
were restored per the original building design.

Through innovative architectural and landscape design, the Pitzer College President’s residence is the first LEED Certified single family residential project in the City of Claremont. The rehabilitation of this 1919 Dutch Colonial Revival house removed additions incompatible with the architectural style, restored all extant original character defining features, and added to the house as required to accommodate a dual program set forth by the client. KSMA’s design allows for multiple flexible uses throughout the house and site, including accommodations for a single family residence (for the current and future Presidents and their families) as well as for meetings, gatherings and various college-related activities. The 4,500 sf residence, and site, is now accessible for guests and residents.

As a contributing property in the Claremont Historic District, this project was designed in compliance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and the local historic district guidelines.

Huntington Japanese House

S A N M A R I N O, C A L I F O R N I A
The historic 1903 Japanese House at the Huntington Gardens is one of only four comparable examples in the US from this period. Contending with 100 years of age and exposure, this unique award-winning restoration project quickly achieved national and international renown among scholars and conservators.

The innovative preservation processes developed here revealed a structure of astonishing value to the cultural history of California, and will be essential to the interpretation and preservation of other historic structures around the world. KSMA worked closely with governing building safety and fire officials to develop protection system upgrades as requested by client while maintaining historic integrity of the building. Following the requirements of the California State Historic Building Code. The project included seismic retrofit in addition to repair and restoration of the original historic and fragile structure. Delicate materials and finishes were restored, such as decorative wood features and finishes, plaster materials, finishes and colors, and roof systems, sheathing, and ornaments. This elegant building is the only surviving example of early 20th century Japanese architecture in Southern California. On the grounds of a museum estate that draws more than 600,000 visitors each year, the celebrated Huntington Japanese House is a vital resource to the community at large and to scholars of Japanese culture in California, an open-air garden pavilion for public education and traditional ceremony.

Master Plan for Rehabilitation

P A S A D E N A, C A L I F O R N I A
The USC PAM Master Plan for Rehabilitation was
developed by KSMA in 2014 and Phase 1 of this plan
– seismic strengthening collection storage – was
completed in 2017. With a focus on the careful
preservation of this National Register designated
property in the heart of Pasadena, KSMA directed
the design and implementation of a sensitive
construction project, using the California Historic
Building Code, working closely with City of Pasadena
Fire department and life safety officials. Client
objectives were met within project parameters and
while maintaining the historic integrity of the
building. Phase 1 focused on the basement level,
under the historic landscaped courtyard, as required
for the secure storage of the museum’s collection in
a water tight and climate controlled environment.

KSMA designed improvements to the main entrance,
reception/gift shop, and adjacent gallery areas.

KSMA continues to work with USC PAM on
additional work, as funds become available, while
planning for further implementation of the Master
Plan for Rehabilitation.

PAST LITIGATION DISCLOSURE
Following the successful completion of a historic relocation and restoration project (2016 – 2019), the general contractor failed to pay KSMA the remaining balance owed on the contract. After substantial efforts by KSMA to resolve the matter informally, KSMA engaged legal counsel and filed a complaint against the general contractor. In response to this demand for payment, two years later and without merit, the general contractor filed a cross-complaint alleging that KSMA failed to complete its work.

The claims against KSMA wholly lacked merit because KSMA’s work for the project was approved by the City and the project owner, and no complaints were made by the general contractor during the course of the project or until demands for final payment were filed. The unmeritorious cross-claims against KSMA were completely dismissed with prejudice. KSMA was paid the principal balance owed and dismissed its action with prejudice.

AGREEMENT
It is understood KSMA will be consulting, as the Historic Preservation Consultant, with the Project Architect. The proposed agreement will need to be amended to include the scope of services to be provided by KSMA, and clearly define the working relationship between KSMA and the Project Architect.

RE San Marino Center (San Marino Women’s Club)
1800 Huntington Drive, San Marino, California
Recommendations Memorandum
This memorandum describes existing conditions and provides recommendations for the City of San Marino (City) proposed exterior and interior work to the San Marino Center (San Marino Women’s Club), 1800 Huntington Drive in San Marino, California (subject property or building) to ensure conformance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties (Secretary’s Standards). The subject property (Assessor Parcel No. 5334-024-903) is a one-story stucco-clad community building constructed in 1952 as the San Marino Women’s Club designed by architect Marion J. Varner in the Ranch style.1 The building is composed of a large auditorium, dining room, meeting room and office. Constructed as the San Marino Women’s Club2, The building has been determined eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) and the California Register for Historic Places (California Register) for being the first community meeting center in San Marino.

The subject property was officially determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) in a 2011 report prepared by San Buenaventura Research Associates for the City. It was subsequently surveyed in the 2020 Citywide Historic Resources Survey Report (Citywide survey) prepared by Architectural Resources Group that identified the subject property as an individual property determined eligible for the National Register by a consensus through Section 106 process. The subject property is thus listed in the California Register and is designated as a San 1 The subject property was variously described in survey and in the determination of National Register eligibility as Modern Colonial Revival style but is more appropriately described as Ranch style. 2 The building has been interchangeably referred to as the San Marino Women’s or Woman’s Club in existing documentation. For purposes of consistency, we have selected to refer to it as the San Marino Women’s Club as that is how it is listed in the original 1951 building permit.

Marino Historic Landmark.3 The subject property is significant for social history under National Register/California Register criterion A/1.

Figure 1: Architectural Rendering of the San Marino Women’s Club (Pasadena Museum of History, 1951)
Designed as an early community building, its architectural expression imparts a residential character consistent the Ranch style that was at the height of its popularity. At the time of its design and construction, it was located in a residential zone and received a zoning variance. Characteristic features of the Ranch style include a low sloping, front facing cross gable roof clad in wood shake shingles, painted stucco, square steel porch columns with ornamental ironwork supporting the recessed porch, steel sash casement windows and Late Moderne style features such as the rectangular grid pattern on the high-volume auditorium exterior walls and bevel frames at some windows.

By 1958, two additions were made to the subject property. The east addition is a 100 square foot storage space that infilled a portion of the east elevation porch and the west addition is a 110 square foot office space that infilled the west elevation porch. Alterations include the raised windowsill at the large east elevation dining room window, sheet metal awnings added to the west elevation, an exit door added to the dining room at the south elevation, replacement of the entry door leaves, removal of a raised planter and extension of paved walkways at the north elevation. Consistent with previous evaluations, these are minor alterations, and the subject property retains integrity.

Proposed work plans to mesh the designs of the subject property with the adjacent Crowell Public Library (library), a building influenced by the Spanish-Mediterranean style, featuring characteristic elements of the style such as a terracotta tile roof, arches above windows and doors, stucco exterior and trellises. The project plans aim to rehabilitate and alter the subject property in a manner that would ensure the subject property and library read as one cohesive unit despite being on separate parcels and from different periods. The subject property, when compared to the adjacent library, appears dated and needs investment and repositioning to improve its functionality and use. The proposed work plans currently include replacing steel sash windows with insulated glazed aluminum frame windows, removing reveals and adding new stucco, adding new arches at the primary north elevation entry at the south elevation, adding wall and shade canopies, replacing the planter at the north elevation, replacing the square steel porch columns with ornamental ironwork for round stucco columns, replacing the wood shake roof with Mission or Spanish terracotta tile. The proposed work plans do not conform with the Secretary’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties (Secretary’s Standards).
3 The San Marino Historic Preservation Ordinance (23.18.03.A) includes Automatic Designation as a local City landmark when a property is listed in the National Register or California Register.

To identify potential design alternatives that would be consistent with the Secretary’s Standard’s, Chattel, Inc. (Chattel) President Robert Chattel, AIA, and Associate I Sydney Andrea Landers conducted a site visit on October 20, 2021 with ELMT Project Manager Julie Gilbert and City Engineer Michael Throne. This memorandum summarizes Chattel’s observations during the site visit, and provides recommendations based on limited historic image research (Attachment A), permit research (Attachment C), review of proposed site plan drawings drawn by Crane Architectural Group dated November 2020 (Attachment D), previous historic evaluation review (Attachment F), and discussion with the City Engineer. Attachment B includes contemporary photographs and Attachment F includes exterior elevations denoting where alterations have occurred.

Existing Conditions
The subject property consists of a generally one-story building of rectangular massing, with two additions one in the front and one in the rear both dating to 1958. The front addition is to the east of the projecting wing and the rear addition is to the east of the auditorium. The front elevations takes on residential massing and features an L-shaped porch that wraps around the north elevation. The north elevation (primary façade) faces Huntington Drive (Huntington) (Images 1-6, 24-29), the east elevation directly abuts the adjacent building (library) (Images 7-14), the south elevation faces a surface parking lot shared by the library (Images 15-19) and the west elevation faces a surface parking lot (Images 20-23).

North Elevation (Façade)
The north elevation (façade) is comprised of an L-shaped porch that wraps around the north and west elevations, an office addition on the west end of the porch and a projecting wing on the east end. The roof of the north elevation is front facing and cross gabled with wood shake shingles. The roof overhangs over the L-shaped porch as well as the east projecting wing. The office addition is approximately 100 sq ft and partially infilled the west end of the porch in 1958. The east projecting wing features a central 6x3 steel casement window surrounded by a painted wooden bevel frame.

Intersecting the cross gabled roof is the auditorium’s high volume stucco wall with a flat roof. The porch is lined by square steel porch columns with ornamental ironwork. The north facing side of the porch is lined with hedges. The double door entry is recessed into the inner corner of the porch. To the east of the recessed entry door are two metal double doors central with the walkway. To the west of the recessed entry is a 4x3 steel casement window. Original pavement along the north elevation is denoted by original red paint. This original pavement wraps the building’s exterior walls and is mostly covered by a roof overhang. This elevation faces Huntington Drive and is highly visible from the public right of way.

East Elevation
The east elevation is comprised of the east addition on the north end and a central north-facing porch entry to the dining hall. The east addition has one window facing north with metal bars and an aluminum frame. Adjacent to it, on the original building envelope, is a steel casement window with a wooden frame painted white. The roofline extends past the addition to create a covered porch with half of the original brick chimney exposed. The pavement underneath the roof overhang is original.

Going south, the front addition has one wooden door with a window that faces east. Past this are two 3 panel steel sash windows underneath another roof overhang porch entry.

This entry faces north and consists of a large 4x4 wooden casement window framed by two narrow wooden doors with three windows and transoms. These doors are barely wider than the 28-inch variance permitted through the California Historic Building Code (CHBC).

Page 4 ends

Along the east elevation’s south end, is a large three by six panel steel casement windows. This window is half of its original height, evident by markings on the stucco that extend from the window to the ground level. Chattel was informed that the bottom half of the window was filled in at an unknown date (likely soon after construction) due to drainage and flooding issues with having the window be at ground level. The roofline above this window is a false gable parapet over a flat roof.

The rest of the east elevation’s envelope is painted stucco and minimally detailed. This elevation is less visible from the public right of way as it directly faces the library.

South Elevation
The south elevation features two 2x4 pane steel sash windows that are central and evenly spaced in the dining hall. On the east end, there is an exit door and metal rail for the center’s handicap entrance that was added in 1956. The roofline remains flat with an elevated parapet on the west end to cover mechanical equipment. The 1958 rear addition is half of the height of the high-volume auditorium is nestled in the L-shaped plan of the auditorium rear and dining hall. The rear of the auditorium features two exit doors: one at ground level and one at level with the auditorium with a concrete staircase and metal railing lining the side of the building. The rear of the auditorium remains unpainted and minimally altered. This elevation is not visible from the public right of way.

West Elevation
The west elevation is primarily composed of the flat roof high volume auditorium and a side gabled porch entry on the north end. Near the roofline, the exterior is adorned in a rectangular grid pattern on stucco, similar to the Late Moderne. The south end of the west elevation contains two narrow wooden sash windows covered by black metal bars. Below these windows is a chain link fence, a third of the building’s height, that covers access to mechanical equipment. To the north of this fence is an elevator door entry with a concrete staircase and metal railing leading up to the building. The metal handrail was added in 1956. The central portion of the west elevation consists of three evenly spaced steel casement windows 6x6 pane steel sash windows that are covered by corrugated metal awnings with scalloped ends. The awnings have been painted white and feature similar ornamental ironwork as the square steel porch columns. The north end of the west elevation features a side gable wing that contains an office and the front porch of the subject property. This projecting gable includes two windows with metal awnings that face west and south respectively. The top of the gable includes a metal vent that has been painted to match the rest of the exterior envelope. At the north end, a three-step concrete staircase leads to the front porch and is covered by a green fabric awning that lists “San Marino Women’s Center” in faded lettering. The porch is lined by a minimalistic metal baluster and railing. Much of the west elevation is obscured and lined by vegetation and trees on the property. This elevation is visible from the public right of way.

Character-Defining Features
The subject property retains the following character-defining features of Ranch and Late Moderne styles:
x One-story rectangular massing with front facing and cross gable roofs; x Stucco with rectangular grid reveals at parapet;
x Multi-light steel sash windows, wood grid windows, some with wood bevel frames; x Square steel porch columns with ornamental ironwork; and, x Fenestration pattern of windows and doors at north (primary), east, south (rear), and west elevations.

Recommendations
The subject property lacks some aesthetic appeal of its original design due to two additions that infilled the primary north elevation porch on both the east and west, which altered its original massing, removal of the front planter, deterioration of the exterior stucco, and weathered wood shakes. Restoring the original footprint by removing both porch additions and rehabilitating character defining features would significantly enhance the aesthetic appeal of the building.

The goal of the revised design should be first and foremost to restore and rehabilitate the subject property’s character defining features while allowing for subtle changes in massing, color, and landscaping to visually connect it with the library. Visual elements of the Spanish-Mediterranean style library can be integrated into the building by subtle changes to roof color and material, exterior paint color, hardscape, and landscaping to improve compatibility with the library.

We recommend referencing Preservation Brief 22: The Preservation and Repair of Historic Stucco and Preservation Brief 13: The Repair and Thermal Upgrading of Historic Steel Windows for any future rehabilitation work on these features.

To ensure that any revised design conforms with the Secretary’s Standards, the design architect should work with a qualified historic preservation consultant through design collaboration.4 4 A qualified historic preservation consultant must meet the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualification Standards in architecture, historic architecture, or architectural history.

Specifically, our recommendations are as follows and additional reference materials are provided in Attachment G:

At the north elevation:
x Retain and rehabilitate character-defining features to greatest extent feasible. x Retain wood shake roof or replace with compatible replacement such as red asphalt shingle or flat terracotta tile.
x Patch, repair and repaint stucco, as necessary. Stucco can be painted to be compatible with the library.
x Retain and rehabilitate square steel porch columns and ornamental ironwork, repaint as necessary. Columns and ornamental ironwork can be painted brown to be compatible with trim of the library.
x Rehabilitate and repair steel sash windows, as necessary. x Retain and rehabilitate original paving, as necessary. x Restore original planter at north elevation, match vegetation with library. x Remove two porch additions (east storage addition and west office addition). Ensure that brick chimney is not damaged in removal of east storage addition. Chemically remove overpaint on brick.
x Detail wall and shade canopy to not touch existing building ensuring reversibility, and revise wall and shade canopy design to be subordinate to existing building. Provide only minimal metal infill at existing porch to enclose courtyard.
x Replace existing primary north entry door leaves to match existing.

At the east elevation:
x Retain and rehabilitate character-defining features to greatest extent feasible. x Patch, repair and repaint stucco, as necessary. Stucco can be painted to be compatible with the adjacent library.
x Rehabilitate and repair steel sash and wood grid windows, as necessary. x Remove porch addition (east storage addition). Ensure that brick chimney is not damaged in removal of east storage addition. Chemically remove overpaint on brick. Restore steel sash doors that were removed to provide access into addition.

At the south elevation:
x Retain and rehabilitate character-defining features to greatest extent feasible. x Patch, repair and repaint stucco, as necessary. Stucco can be painted to be compatible with the adjacent library.
x Rehabilitate and repair steel sash and wood grid windows, as necessary. x Detail wall and shade canopy to not touch existing building ensuring reversibility. Simplify design of the screen wall and trellis to eliminate round arches and detail to be self-supporting and not attached to the existing building.

At the west elevation:
x Retain and rehabilitate character-defining features to greatest extent feasible. x Patch, repair and repaint stucco, as necessary. Stucco can be painted to be compatible with the adjacent library.
x Rehabilitate and repair sheet metal window awnings, repaint as necessary. x Rehabilitate and repair steel sash windows, as necessary.

BUILDING, STRUCTURE, AND OBJECT RECORD
San Marino Woman’s Club
Page
The San Marino Woman’s Club was organized in 1936 with 420 members and held its general meetings in the Henry E. Huntington School. In 1942 the club purchased the property at 1800 Huntington Drive for the purpose of building a much needed clubhouse for its growing membership. However, it was not until ten years later that the 15,720 square foot clubhouse was completed on the site.

When completed, the San Marino Woman’s Club was the first meeting place to be built in the community. The building was constructed to serve the entire community, not just the Woman’s Club, although they funded its construction. Members raised most of the funds to complete the clubhouse through bazaars, rummage sales, parties and various entertainment events over a ten year period. They also made an appeal to the public for funds.

Over the years, the club’s charitable contributions have been numerous and include the endowment of a bed at the Orthopedic Hospital, nursing scholarships, Toys for Tots and others. They also provided help to the Assistance League, American Red Cross and the City of Hope. The building was made available to the community for meetings and events. After selling its building, the San Marino Woman’s Club moved its organization to Pasadena in 2004. (cont’d.) Resource Name or #: (Assigned by recorder) San Marino Woman’s Club 23 of

B10. Significance
Marion J. Varner, Architect
Born February 8, 1912 in Kansas, Marion J. Varner moved to Pomona, California by 1920 with his parents Clarence and Mabel Varner and siblings. His father owned a plastering company. Marion lived with his family in 1930, and at age 18, was employed as a baker.

Varner’s educational background is unknown. The first known reference to his architecture career was in 1951 when the Los Angeles Times reported he designed 24 homes in the Anaheim Tract at the same time he was designing the San Marino Woman’s Club. His office was located in Pasadena. Varner had a very prolific career designing primarily public buildings throughout Los Angeles County.

Some of his major projects include Hawthorne Police Station, 1955; Torrance Fire Station, 1955; San Fernando Police Station, 1956; Compton Community Center, 1956; Gardena Medical Clinic, 1956; Glendora Hospital, 1956; El Segundo Fire Station, 1957; Hawthorne Fire Station, 1957; Downey Civic Center, 1958; San Gabriel Police Station, 1961; Gardena City Hall, police building and library, 1963 for which he received an award from the Society of American Registered Architects (SARA); Arcadia high-rise office, 1963; and Bell Gardens City Hall in 1966. Varner also won an award from SARA for his design for the Vernon City Hall and Police Station in 1975. In 1978 Varner joined W. Gayle Daniel and Samuel E. Hart of the SARA to design the first energy-effective case study house in Rancho California and the first to be sponsored by a chapter of a professional society. (Los Angeles Times, 1951-1978) Varner was active professionally serving as president of the National Board of the Society of American Registered Architects and in 1968 he served as president of the local chapter. He died on April 10, 2005 in San Marino.

The San Marino Community Center, formerly the San Marino Woman’s Club, is associated with an event (Criterion A) which is important to the history of the San Marino community. It apparently was the first community building constructed in San Marino and has served as a community focal point for many years while the club also pursued its charitable work. The building is not associated with any known individuals (Criterion B) important to the history of the San Marino community. The building does not embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period or method of construction (Criterion C). The Woman’s Club is an undistinguished example of the Modern Colonial style. It was designed by Pasadena architect Marion Varner and is one of his early designs. Varner was a prolific architect during the 1950s and 1960s designing numerous public buildings throughout Los Angeles County. Varner’s work is not sufficiently documented to regard him as a Master architect. Criterion D refers to archaeology and is not addressed in this report.

Integrity Discussion
The property at 1800 Huntington Drive is in its original location. The original design of the 1952 building is primarily intact except for changes to the front entrance doors and two small additions in 1958 done in the same style. The historic setting of the property is partially intact. The relationship to the adjacent library and school remain. However, the original 1950 library was replaced with a new library building within the last few years. The integrity of materials is somewhat intact. The feeling and association as a woman’s club is no longer intact since the building is now the San Marino Community Center, but it continues to function to serve the community. Overall, the integrity of the building appears sufficient for eligibility.

STRATEGIC PLAN CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS
• Engaged and Connected Residents
• Efficient, Responsive, and Effective City Services
• Fiscally Responsible and Transparent City Government

BACKGROUND
Historically, the City of San Marino has elected to not take an active role in engaging with State or Federal legislation; we have focused more on the happenings within our San Marino boundaries. Any decisions about issuing position letters on potential legislation or even sending a representative to Sacramento have been made on a case-by-case basis.

Unfortunately, the last few years have seen an increase in legislation that threatens the San Marino way of life, and those discussions about whether or not to engage have become more frequent.

Additionally, almost all of San Marino’s attention in this area has been focused on housing, but there continues to be legislation in many other areas that could negatively impact our community and our organization, including public safety matters, environmental mandates, and records management. It now appears that it might be time to take a more proactive approach to State legislation activities. Staff is pleased to offer the Council a variety of options to consider.

DISCUSSION
There are two major components to this discussion: a Legislative Platform and a Legislative Advocacy Plan. At today’s meeting, we are asking the City Council to discuss the various options and provide direction to staff about which avenues, if any, to pursue. Depending on the Council’s wishes, staff may need to return to the Council at a later meeting with recommendations for additional action.

Legislative Platform
A “Legislative Platform” is a document written by staff and adopted by Council that offers a comprehensive set of the City’s positions on various legislative topics (not specific laws). With a clear Platform, staff understands (without needing to return to the City Council every time a new law is proposed) what positions to support or oppose as it relates to potential legislation.

The City can therefore engage immediately as long as the position is within the approved framework of the Platform. For example, the City might adopt the position that we will oppose any attempt to undermine local control over housing, regardless of the bill's specifics. Staff would then engage in opposition to any legislation that falls into that category, without the need to agendize a discussion at a Council meeting or call a special meeting because of deadlines.

The Legislative Platform tool is considered a best practice for effective legislative advocacy and is used by many public agencies to influence State policy for the betterment of their communities.

The primary objective of a legislative platform is to establish official City positions on clearly stated legislative issues at the start of each legislative year. The Legislative Platform may reflect the City’s Critical Success Factors and/or Priority Initiatives, as well as legislative priorities from partners such as the League of California Cities, Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), and/or the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG).

Once adopted, a Legislative Platform will increase the visibility of the City Council’s legislative goals, inform City staff of the City Council’s position and priorities on various issues, and enable quick development of action plans to advocate for City interests. A Legislative Platform is typically revisited annually and published with updates based on new areas of interest or concerns.

Attachment 1 contains several examples of Legislative Platforms from other cities to illustrate how the Legislative Platform could be organized.

Once the Council has adopted a Legislative Platform and we know what general positions to take, a plan is the next step to guide how we engage on those issues.

Legislative Advocacy Plan
A “Legislative Advocacy Plan” describes the various ways that City will engage with legislative issues. Answers to the following questions would guide the development of the Plan:

1. How should the City monitor for potential legislative threats/benefits?

2. How extensive should the City’s response be to legislative items we wish to support or oppose? Do we want to be more aggressive in certain areas than others?

3. Who in the community needs to know about our efforts? (Is this a citywide communication effort to be included in a regular report? Is this information targeted to key stakeholders and people who want to opt-in to receive updates?)

4. How many additional resources (see below) should the City allocate to this plan? If we choose this path, the Legislative Advocacy Plan would be revised annually when the City Council reviews the Legislative Platform. Council could direct staff to either develop specific plans for specific issues on a case-by-case basis or create a comprehensive framework.

Page 142 of 326 ends

The Council will need to make some other decisions as well, which are all interrelated. • Lobbyist. The Council may wish to engage the services of a professional lobbyist who has relationships in Sacramento that can be leveraged to represent our interests. We could retain a lobbyist on an ongoing basis to monitor pending legislation, report back to us regularly, and advocate for our position according to our Platform; or we could hire issue-specific lobbyists for short periods of time as needed, or we could choose not to retain a lobbyist at all.
• Legislative Monitoring. As we know from the last few years, keeping track of all potential bills that could impact the City is beyond the capacity of our current staff resources; we have barely been able to keep up with housing legislation, and there are potential impacts in so many other areas, as noted above. The City needs to determine what mechanism to use to stay abreast of pending legislation in all areas. Choices include receiving updates from partner organizations (such as SCAG, SGVCOG, or the League of California Cities), news outlets, professional associations, or lobbyists (see above). • Staffing. Current staff resources would allow for drafting the Platform, monitoring email communications from other organizations (SCAG, SGVCOG, etc.) about potential legislation, distributing the information we receive to the community, and writing support/opposition letters on behalf of the Council. Beyond those efforts, as noted above, staff does not have additional capacity. If the Council prefers not to hire a lobbyist but still wants the City to be more proactive on this topic, an alternative would be to add a staff person dedicated to increased legislative engagement.

Each decision has different price points different impacts on staff time, summarized in Attachment

2. Naturally, each approach has different likelihoods of having an influential voice.

FISCAL IMPACT AND PROCUREMENT REVIEW
There is no fiscal impact or procurement review at this time. Depending on the Council’s direction, there may be additional costs.

LEGAL REVIEW
City Attorney has reviewed this staff report and approved it as to form.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council discuss this matter and provide direction to staff.

LEGISLATIVE PLATFORM
The primary objective of the Legislative Platform is for the City Council to adopt official City positions on clearly stated legislative issues at the start of the legislative session. By doing this, the legislative approval process is streamlined by receiving clear direction at the beginning of the legislative session from the City Council on pertinent legislative issues.

The Platform is developed and maintained using the goals and objectives adopted by the City Council, a review of legislative priorities from the League of California Cities, input from City Council and Staff, research of current law and pending legislation, as well as discussions with local legislative staff and the City’s legislative advocate.

Federal and state legislative proposals and policies consistent with the legislative priorities may be supported by the City. Those policies or proposals inconsistent with this agenda may be opposed by the City.

For proposed legislation, either consistent with the City’s legislative priorities or consistent with legislative positions the City has taken in the past, City staff shall be authorized to prepare position letters for the Mayor or City Manager’s signature. Items not addressed in the City’s legislative priorities will require further City Council direction; as such, Staff will be required to submit a request to the Council. Legislative priorities may only address issues directly relevant to, or impacting the provision of municipal services. Generally, the City will not address matters that are not pertinent to the City’s local government services (such as international issues).

City departments are encouraged to monitor and be knowledgeable of any legislative issues related to their discipline. However, any requests for the City to take positions on a legislative matter must be directed to the City Manager’s Office. City departments may not take positions on legislative issues without City Manager’s Office review and approval.

Legislative Platform

PROGRAM GOALS AND STRATEGIES/ACTIONS
The Legislative Platform Goals and Strategies/Actions are outlined below.

Program Goals:
 Advocate the City’s legislative interests at the Federal, State and County levels.  Inform and provide information to our Legislators, City Council, and Staff on the legislative process and key issues and legislation that could have a potential impact on theCity.  Serve as an active participant with other local governments, the League of California Cities, regional agencies such as SCAG, SCAQMD, and local professional organizations on legislative/regulatory issues that are important to the City and our Region.  Seek grant and funding assistance for City projects, services, and programs to enhance services for our community.

Strategies/Actions:

I. Communicate legislative positions on proposed Federal, State, and County legislation, measures, initiatives, and governmental regulations:
• Work with City departments and our legislative advocates to develop positions on proposed Federal and State legislative measures.
• Staff will review the positions and analysis done by the League of California Cities, our legislative advocates’ feedback, and other local government/professional associations in formulating City positions.
• The City will take positions only on proposals that clearly impact our City or are a threat to local control.
• Actively track key bills through the legislative process, utilizing the City’s advocacy services, various Legislative websites, and government/professional associations. • Communicate the City’s position to our Federal, State, and County Legislators, bill author(s), committees, and Legislature, through correspondence, testimony, and in‐person meetings. • Work cooperatively with other cities, associations, and the League of California Cities on advocating our legislative positions.
• As necessary, participate in the drafting and amending of proposed Federal and State measures that have the potential to significantly impact the City. • Meet with Legislators and their representatives, as well as other Federal, State and County government officials on a regular basis, to discuss local government issues, proposed legislation, requests for funding assistance, and City programs and services.

Page 149 of 326 ends

Legislative Platform
II. Seek Federal, State, and County funding through earmarks, grants, and other discretionary funding for City projects, services, and programs:
• Annually identify City projects for potential submittal for Federal earmark consideration. Develop a submittal packet for Legislators that provides information and need for the projects.
• Provide information to City departments on potential grant funding opportunities and recognition programs.
• Advocate and request letters of support for City projects and grant applications or other resources that are being considered for Federal, State and County funding.

LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS STREAMLINED PROCCESS
The process for responding to legislative proposals is streamlined as follows:

1. Once a determination has been made that a legislative proposal may impact the City, a letter outlining the City’s position (support, neutral or oppose with or without amendments) will be drafted for the Mayor or City Manager’s signature.

2. If an item expressly requires the Mayor’s signature, the City Manager’s Office will circulate the draft position letter to the City Councilfor reference.

3. In the event that the legislative matter is not addressed in the City’s adopted Legislative Platform, is not consistent with legislative positions the City has taken in the past, or if there is interest by the City Council for future discussion, the matter will be placed on a future Council meeting agenda for consideration by the full City Council.

4. If there is no objection, Staff will finalize the position letter and forward it to the bill’s author, the League of California Cities, the City’s legislative advocate and other stakeholders as deemedappropriate.

5. A copy of the final letter will be distributed to the City Council.

City of Azusa
2021 Legislative Priorities
Legislative Platform

PURPOSE STATEMENT
The 2021 Legislative Priorities provide a framework for the City of Azusa’s Legislative Platform. Adopted annually, the City’s Legislative Priorities serve as a reference guide for legislative positions and objectives that provide direction for the City Council and Staff throughout the year. The Legislative Priorities are the foundation of a focused advocacy strategy.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES
I. Preserve Local Funding
The City supports the protection of existing state and local funding sources and the authorities that provide revenues to the City of Azusa. Such areas include the protection of state‐shared revenues, assets of the former redevelopment agency, and the ability to collect compensation for the use of the public rights‐of‐way or city‐owned facilities. The City opposes any new mandates that are unfunded and/or inadequately funded.

II. Preserve Local Authority
The City supports local decision‐making authority and opposes preemption of local control. Cities are voluntarily created by the residents of a community to provide local self‐government and to make decisions at a local level to best meet the needs of the community. Each community has unique needs and characteristics that are best met by policies set by its local governing body.

Statewide efforts to remove the ability to set policy at the local level should be opposed, while promoting legislation that allows flexibility in the City's effort to cost‐effectively meet energy goals and mandates.

Town of Danville
Legislative Framework
Town Council Legislative Committee

Page 161 of 326 ends

Overview
The Town of Danville is actively engaged in legislative advocacy efforts that are aimed at protecting and promoting Danville’s best interests at the local, state and federal levels. These efforts are driven by two primary considerations: 1) continuing to uphold the Town mission of delivering superior municipal services that make people’s lives better; and 2) an increasing level of state involvement and regulation in areas that have previously fallen within local control.

The significant increase in bills being introduced in the State Legislature that have the potential to further impact cities’ local control has prompted the Town to continue to expand advocacy efforts through various means and channels. Key to these efforts is the development of this Legislative Framework which outlines the Town’s legislative principles, policies, goals and strategies. The Framework will be monitored and driven by a Town Council Legislative Committee.

Legislative Goals
• Advocate the Town’s legislative interests at the federal, state, regional, and county levels to support our Town’s vision and mission.
• Serve as an active participant with other local governments, the League of California Cities, regional agencies, and local professional organizations in addressing legislative issues that are important to the town and our region.
• Participate in the Tri-Valley Cities coalition to work together on legislative issues, projects and initiatives at the federal, state, regional and county levels. • Seek grant and funding assistance for Town projects, services, and programs. • Communicate to the Town’s residents those legislative and agency rule-making matters which are of potentially general interest or concern.

Legislative Principles
To fulfill the goals identified, the Town supports legislation and policies that favor:

1. Outstanding Quality of Life - provide opportunities to protect and enhance our residents’ quality of life through active living, a healthy lifestyle and diverse recreational services.

2. Community Safety - provide access to resources and services for residents, such as quality police, fire, emergency management, emergency medical services, services for vulnerable populations and community benefit efforts.

3. Local Control over Land Use and Preservation - ensures the Town’s continued ability and authority to exercise decisions on land use matters and reasonably regulate new development to ensure consistency with Town design standards. The orderly growth and development of the Town together with the preservation of open space is a high priority for the Danville community.

Page 162 of 326 ends

4. Foster Economic Vitality and Growth - provide funding for initiatives that promote: economic health and resilience, business development, workforce development, and small business entrepreneurship training and assistance.

5. Public Infrastructure - enable continued improvement and maintenance of the Town’s public infrastructure.

6. Transportation - provide funding for planning and implementation of regional transportation projects.

7. Housing - seek balanced solutions which consider housing, jobs, and transportation together; does not take a one size fits all approach; provides funding and resources for infrastructure and allows the Town to exercise local control in developing locally appropriate plans that meet State objectives in a manner that is compatible with existing community character.

8. Support Residents Growth and Enrichment - enhance and encourage recreational programming, exercise, use of parks and services, community engagement, social and recreational experiences; and performing and visual arts.

9. Sustainability - enable sustainable development, conserve natural resources, provide resources to enable environmental awareness and health in our community and source vendors that comply with California environmental requirements that protect public health and air quality.

10. Fiscal Sustainability - protect existing federal, state, and local funding sources that provide revenues to the Town of Danville. Oppose Unfunded Mandates and legislation that seeks to impose any requirement upon the Town that is not fully funded; aid recovery of Town costs stemming from State and/or Federal mandates.

Town Council Legislative Committee
• The Legislative Committee shall consist of two members of the Town Council to be appointed annually by the Mayor, supported by appropriate Town staff. • The committee shall meet as frequently as monthly to review and discuss the Town’s legislative platform and pending/possible legislation.
• The committee shall develop positions on pending or possible legislation and make recommendations for consideration by the Town Council. Recommendations will be based upon a determination of potential legislative impacts upon the Town and its residents. Potential positions to be considered include:

Page 163 of 326 ends

consider taking a position as the legislative process progresses • Once a determination has been made that a legislative proposal may impact the Town by the Legislative Committee, a letter outlining the Town’s position will be drafted for the Mayor’s or Town Manager’s signature.
• Legislative Proposals may sometimes advance or change rapidly. Should the need to respond to such a proposal arise prior to an opportunity for either the Legislative Committee or Town Council to meet to consider the matter, then the Town Manager is authorized to act expeditiously to respond via letter, in a manner that is consistent with the goals and principles contained in the Framework. All such letters shall be transmitted to the Town Council, and posted on the Legislative page of the Town website.
• The Committee shall make regular reports to the Town Council at duly noticed public meetings.

CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES HOUSING AND

LOCAL LAND USE LEGISLATIVE PLATFORM
DATE ADOPTED: Resolution No. 2021-31 on July 6, 2021.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In response to the housing crisis and recent legislation proposed by the California Legislature:
• The City of Rancho Palos Verdes opposes proposed planning and zoning legislation that usurps local control and imposes unfunded mandates. • The City supports actions to further strengthen local democracy, authority, and control.
• The City would support housing policies which include funded mandates or create funded programs such as Local Early Action Planning (LEAP) and Regional Early Action Planning (REAP) to assist local planning efforts. • The City would support policies that provide incentives to cities such as additional tax revenue or tax breaks and policies which grant concessions to existing policies for adoption of pro-housing policies. • The City would support policies or grants directed toward developers to incentivize the creation of affordable housing.
• The City would support policies which expand programs such as Project Homekey, which repurpose existing buildings into an affordable housing option. • The City would support policies and programs which provide social services and mental health services to help unhoused persons be eligible for, acquire, and maintain affordable housing.
• The City would support policies or programs that allow city and state collaboration on housing production, alongside sustainable transportation, broadband deployment, and other key infrastructure areas to support our communities.

BACKGROUND
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes is located on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in Los Angeles County, California, and incorporated in 1973. The City is primarily comprised of

Page 214 of 326 ends

Housing and Local Land Use Legislative Platform

Page 2 ends

residential zones and open space, is nearly entirely located within a Cal Fire-designated Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ), and is partially located in the statedesignated coastal zone. Moreover, approximately 1,200 acres of the City is within the Portuguese Bend Landslide complex, the largest and fastest moving landslide in North America.

The City of Rancho Palos Verdes recognizes that California is in the middle of a housing crisis. Housing stock cannot meet present demand and lack of affordable housing makes existing stock cost prohibitive. The Legislature has an apparent focus on passing laws which aim to mitigate the housing crisis through rescission of local land use authority and oversight to streamline the process of constructing additional units. These laws create a one-size-fits-all approach that fail to consider local authority and essential local oversight, including constraints faced by local agencies such as infrastructure limitations.

The City is committed to maintaining and enhancing a high quality of life and safety for all residents as reflected in its General Plan, updated as of 2018. Local land use authority is essential to ensuring that all new developments are suitable and safe for our community, and to allow the City and developers to work together to find the most mutually beneficial arrangement for all residents in the City.

Development within the City faces a number of unique challenges. Despite this, the City has a vibrant and well-planned mix of residential, commercial, and industrial uses.

There are 8,274 acres of land within the City of Rancho Palos Verdes. The City has determined that 1,710 acres (or 20%) of land are not suitable for development. These include Natural Environment/Hazard Areas which are lands designated as “Hazard,” “Open Space Hillside” and “Open Space Preserve” by the Land Use Element.

The areas designated “Hazard” possess extreme physical constraints, such as active landslide1, sea cliff erosion hazard, and extreme slopes of 35 percent and greater.

The areas designated “Open Space Hillside” are subject to extreme physical constraints and are maintained as open space, with very light-intensity uses permitted, such as landscaping, agriculture, passive recreational activities, and very minor structures, for the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare.

The areas designated “Open Space Preserve” encompass the City’s Palos Verdes Nature Preserve, which is approximately 1,400 acres of permanent open space. The City’s Preserve is enrolled in the State’s Natural Communities Conservation Plan and the 1 The Portuguese Bend Landslide is one of the largest and most active landslides in the country and encompasses over two of the City's roughly 14 square miles, moves at a rate between hundredths of an inch per year and tens of feet per year. This movement is especially noticed by motorists, cyclists and pedestrians who travel along Palos Verdes Drive South. The City continuously maintains a safe roadway through the area at a cost of about a half million dollars per year. An above-ground sewer trunk line is in jeopardy of failing with land movement that has the potential to cause a significant environmental catastrophe due to its close proximity to the Pacific Ocean.

Federal Habitat Conservation Plan (NCCP/HCP) and is encumbered with restrictions, held in perpetuity, for the preservation and protection of natural resources and habitat.

Residential activities are the major land use in the City, with existing and proposed residential uses encompassing approximately 5,500 acres (66.5% of the total land area).

The predominance of residential use and related density ranges is based on several factors: the ability of residential activity to produce low environmental stress, the geographic location of the community with no major transportation facilities, the geology of the site, lack of market potential for any major commercial development, and need for support facilities to meet the community’s demand.

As such, it is vital that local control be maintained to ensure public health and safety. Onesize-fits-all legislation with ministerial review requirements cannot take into account the unique geographic, geologic, and infrastructure constraints required for a project to be successful and to maintain or enhance public safety.

RECENT LEGISLATIVE POSITIONS
On August 4, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020-46 expressing opposition to proposed planning and zoning legislation that usurps local control and imposes unfunded mandates and expressing support for actions to further strengthen local democracy, authority, and control. It furthermore declares that, should the state continue to pass legislation that attacks local municipal authority, control and revenue, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes will support actions such as a ballot measure that would limit the state’s ability to control local activities and strengthen local democracy and authority.

The City has registered its strong opposition to the current practice of the Legislature of proposing and passing multitudes of bills that directly impact and interfere with the ability of cities to control their own destiny through use of zoning authority that has been granted to them.

While the City appreciates the work of the Legislature to propose policies intended to mitigate the housing crisis, sweeping and ministerial measures cannot properly assess their impact on individual communities and their general plans. Streamlined ministerial approval may be a preferred housing solution for the Legislature, but such development may have significantly detrimental effects on public health and safety. The City is concerned that increasing density by-right will not allow sufficient oversight of infrastructure to ensure that capacities can meet increased residential populations.

In local land use planning and zoning, many factors must be considered. The City must maintain its local land use authority to ensure that all developments meet all safety standards and that related traffic changes do not have undue influence on egress paths in the event of an evacuation, particularly within the VHFHSZ and the Portuguese Bend Landslide complex, and with considerations for limitations on existing infrastructure.

Page 216 of 326 ends

Housing and Local Land Use Legislative Platform

Page 4 ends

During the 2020-2021 legislative session, as of June 15, 2021, the City has taken positions on nine bills relating to housing and land use (see Attachment A).

In general, the City has supported housing legislation which seeks to increase local oversight and flexibility, such as Assemblymember Muratsuchi’s Assembly Constitutional Amendment No. 7 which would amend the State Constitution to require certain local land use controls and zoning regulations remain within incorporated communities when in conflict with general laws. The City also supported Senator Allen’s Senate Bill No. 809, which would allow cities and counties to exchange land for regional housing need allocation (RHNA) shares for compensation of the development of that land.

The City has opposed legislation that erodes local land use authority, such as Senator Atkins’ SB 9, which would require ministerial approval of lot splits and duplexes in singlefamily residential zoned areas. The City is deeply concerned that bills such as SB 9, which would potentially quadruple density in single-family zoning by-right would have detrimental effects on the City’s infrastructure capacity, particularly in the event of an emergency. Increasing density without the ability for the City to properly plan for it will negatively impact public safety in a community like Rancho Palos Verdes, and its residents’ quality of life.

One-size-fits all laws inherently fail to consider the needs of individual communities and their general plans. Furthermore, the current practice of mandating streamlined local processes does nothing to address encouraging actual affordable development of those properties. The Legislature should consider bills that incentivize affordable developments and provide local agencies the ability to zone for such developments. The tone of recent bills, such as making it easier to build an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) on a property, does not guarantee that it will be sold below market rate, thereby affordable. In fact, it appears ADU’s are being rented above market rates throughout Los Angeles or being used for other uses than housing (i.e. gyms, studios, pool cabanas, etc. because of Statemandated relaxed zoning laws). Upzoning parcels is likely to increase the value of the underlying land, which then makes new construction unnecessarily more expensive and over time, raises the values and rents throughout the neighborhoods, making affordable housing even less likely to be built.

The current legislative preference for by-right approvals in favor of increasing density, fails to consider the nuances in individual communities, potentially risking public safety, and does nothing to inherently promote affordable housing, which is vital to recover from the housing crisis and is the purported aim of this approach.

serve their communities. By-right zoning legislation undermines their ability to exercise the city’s local land use authority and problem-solve based on their city’s unique geographic, geologic, and infrastructure constraints, but with state support, they have the capacity to help alleviate the housing crisis.

The City would additionally continue to support legislation that provides financial assistance to implement new directives, or programs similar to Local Early Action Planning (LEAP) and Regional Early Action Planning (REAP) that provide funding to help cities accelerate housing production. The City would also support legislation that provides incentives to cities, such as additional tax revenue or tax breaks. Unfunded mandates are a financial burden to cities which make them difficult to implement successfully.

The Legislature may also consider adopting policies which grant concessions to cities based on adoption of pro-housing policies. For example, if a city were to utilize their local land use authority to upzone a certain amount of land in a commercial corridor, they could be exempt from policies such as requiring ministerial approval of ADUs. This will further local land use flexibility and grants additional incentives to local governments to adopt pro-housing policies. The City is supportive of legislation that increases land use flexibility such as regional trust and/or trade policies, similar to Senator Allen’s SB 809.

The City would also support legislation aimed at developers to encourage sustainable, cost-effective development of affordable housing in safe locations across the state.

Legislation which seeks to expand existing programs such as Project Homekey, or similar programs that repurpose existing buildings or underutilized commercial property (i.e. surface parking lots or single-story shopping centers) into affordable housing are also viable solutions. Additionally, the Legislature should consider policies and programs which provide social services and mental health resources to help unhoused persons be eligible for, acquire, and maintain affordable housing.

Cities have the tools, knowledge, and policies in place to continue to plan and develop innovative solutions to mitigate the housing crisis: solutions that best serve the city and the residents. If, for example, a city observes that there seems to be a surplus of parking spaces in shopping centers, they could re-zone the land to be mixed-use residential. The city may also determine that they could lower their parking requirements in certain areas due to traffic patterns and/or location of transit. When cities are allowed to keep their local land use authority, they will continue to plan and develop new solutions that address their specific constraints, and the state could reward cities for taking such actions with additional tax revenue or tax breaks or policy concenssions.

Regional housing needs and legislation increasing density must be balanced by local capacity assessments including traffic conditions, sewer conditions, school district capacity, ingress/egress capacity, and water supply, among others. Legislation should refocus efforts toward developing programs for cities and state collaboration on housing production, alongside sustainable transportation, broadband deployment, and other key infrastructure areas that can support our communities.

CONCLUSION
During recent legislative sessions, the City has opposed planning and zoning legislation that usurps local control and imposes unfunded mandates. The City was founded to protect local authority and to preserve the character of Rancho Palos Verdes. Local oversight of planning and zoning is essential to ensure that every development is suitable and safe for the community, to protect the health and safety of all residents.

The City is supportive of policies which strengthen local democracy, authority, and control. The City would additionally consider supporting policies which include funded mandates, legislation aimed at developers to encourage creation of affordable housing, the expansion of programs such as Project Homekey, and the creation of programs to improve social and mental health services for unhoused persons.

The City of Rancho Palos Verdes looks forward to working with the Legislature to have an open dialogue about viable solutions to the state’s housing crisis, while maintaining all residents’ high quality of life.

ATTACHMENT A: CITY POSITIONS ON HOUSING BILLS
As of July 6, 2021, for 2021 Legislative Session
AB 215 (Chiu) would require a jurisdiction with low regional housing needs progress to have a mid-cycle consultation with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The City opposed this bill because it is an intrusion into local control and self-determination, most specifically with the usage of the pro-housing designation as a mandatory requirement for low RHNA compliance, and by unnecessarily adding assessments of jurisdictions’ compliance with RHNA.

AB 989 (Gabriel) would create a state appeals board that could overturn local government’s denial of certain housing projects. The City opposed this bill because it would establish a new procedural enforcement mechanism that is exempt from public oversight and review. The state appeals board would allow one hearing officer to substitute their judgement about the public health or safety of a community and overturn the City’s denial following procedures that are not subject to public review and comment.

AB 1258 (Nguyen) would subject final RHNA plans to judicial review. The City supported this bill, given the significant impact a housing element has on local governments’ planning and development, it is reasonable to have an opportunity for judicial review of RHNA decisions.

AB 1295 (Muratsuchi) would prohibit cities or counties from entering into residential development agreements in VHFHSZs. The City commented on this bill, as the City supported the goal of the bill to enhance safety standards in VHFHSZs, though more information is needed about the definition of “development” pertaining to reconstruction of existing structures, and for clarification of the effect of the bill on RHNA.

ACA 7 (Muratsuchi) would amend the State Constitution to allow certain land use controls and zoning regulations to supersede general law, preserving local land use authority. The City supported this bill for the recognition of local and use authority and flexibility for municipalities, as ACA 7 would allow cities’ local ordinances to prevail over general law if they are in conflict.

SB 9 (Atkins) would require ministerial approval of lot splits and duplexes in single-family residential zoning. The City opposed this bill on the grounds that it overrides local control of zoning codes and circumvents the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to allow such subdivision ministerially without public input or consideration. Such development may have severe consequences for public safety, especially in a VHFHSZ.

SB 10 (Wiener) would allow cities to upzone by ordinance in transit-rich areas or urban infill sites. The City opposed this bill because it waives CEQA requirements and may allow cities to supersede voter approved initiatives.

SB 12 (McGuire) would impose significant fire hazard planning responsibilities on local governments. The City opposed this bill because of its effect on local land use authority.

Page 220 of 326 ends

Housing and Local Land Use Legislative Platform
Page A-2
SB 55 (Stern) would prohibit the creation or approval of a new commercial or residential development in a VHFHSZ. The City opposed this bill because while the City supports fire safety measures, such a prohibition infringes on local land use authority.

SB 556 (Dodd) would require cities to make streetlight poles, traffic signal poles, utility poles, and support structures available to telecommunications providers. The City opposed this bill because it would circumvent City oversight, and to protect the public’s investment through City infrastructure, oversight and control of the public rights-of-way must remain local. Additionally, the bill does not encourage or incentivize telecommunications companies to service unserved and underserved communities and inherently conflicts with federally-mandated local authority to manage the right-of-way and to comply with existing Federal Communications Commission (FCC) decisions.

SB 809 (Allen) would allow cities and counties to enter into multijurisdictional agreements to assist with meeting RHNA shares whereby one jurisdiction exchanges land in return for financial compensation to develop that land. The City supported this bill because it grants cities flexibility in meeting RHNA shares.

CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES HOUSING AND

LOCAL LAND USE LEGISLATIVE PLATFORM
DATE ADOPTED: Resolution No. 2021- 31 on July 6, 2021.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In response to the housing crisis and recent legislation proposed by the California Legislature:

The City of Rancho Palos Verdes opposes proposed planning and zoning legislation that usurps local control and imposes unfunded mandates.

The City supports actions to further strengthen local democracy, authority, and control.

The City would support housing policies which include funded mandates or create funded programs such as Local Early Action Planning ( LEAP) and Regional Early Action Planning ( REAP) to assist local planning efforts.

The City would support policies that provide incentives to cities such as additional tax revenue or tax breaks and policies which grant concessions to existing policies for adoption of pro- housing policies.

The City would support policies or grants directed toward developers to incentivize the creation of affordable housing.

The City would support policies which expand programs such as Project Homekey, which repurpose existing buildings into an affordable housing option.

The City would support policies and programs which provide social services and mental health services to help unhoused persons be eligible for, acquire, and maintain affordable housing.

The City would support policies or programs that allow city and state collaboration on housing production, alongside sustainable transportation, broadband deployment, and other key infrastructure areas to support our communities.

BACKGROUND
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes is located on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in Los Angeles County, California, and incorporated in 1973. The City is primarily comprised of residential zones and open space, is nearly entirely located within a Cal Fire- designated Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone ( VHFHSZ), and is partially located in the statePage 227 of 326 2022 Legislative Platform
Page A- 2
designated coastal zone. Moreover, approximately 1, 200 acres of the City is within the Portuguese Bend Landslide complex, the largest and fastest moving landslide in North America.

The City of Rancho Palos Verdes recognizes that California is in the middle of a housing crisis. Housing stock cannot meet present demand and lack of affordable housing makes existing stock cost prohibitive. The Legislature has an apparent focus on passing laws which aim to mitigate the housing crisis through rescission of local land use authority and oversight to streamline the process of constructing additional units. These laws create a one- size-fits-all approach that fail to consider local authority and essential local oversight, including constraints faced by local agencies such as infrastructure limitations.

Development within the City faces a number of unique challenges. Despite this, the City has a vibrant and well- planned mix of residential, commercial, and industrial uses.

There are 8, 274 acres of land within the City of Rancho Palos Verdes. The City has determined that 1, 710 acres ( or 20%) of land are not suitable for development. These include Natural Environment/ Hazard Areas which are lands designated as " Hazard," Open Space Hillside" and " Open Space Preserve" by the Land Use Element.

The areas designated " Hazard" possess extreme physical constraints, such as active landslide', sea cliff erosion hazard, and extreme slopes of 35 percent and greater.

The areas designated " Open Space Hillside" are subject to extreme physical constraints and are maintained as open space, with very light- intensity uses permitted, such as landscaping, agriculture, passive recreational activities, and very minor structures, for the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare.

The areas designated " Open Space Preserve" encompass the City' s Palos Verdes Nature Preserve, which is approximately 1, 400 acres of permanent open space. The City' s Preserve is enrolled in the State' s Natural Communities Conservation Plan and the Federal Habitat Conservation Plan ( NCCP/ HCP) and is encumbered with restrictions, held in perpetuity, for the preservation and protection of natural resources and habitat. 1 The Portuguese Bend Landslide is one of the largest and most active landslides in the country and encompasses over two of the City' s roughly 14 square miles, moves at a rate between hundredths of an inch per year and tens of feet per year. This movement is especially noticed by motorists, cyclists and pedestrians who travel along Palos Verdes Drive South. The City continuously maintains a safe roadway through the area at a cost of about a half million dollars per year. An above-ground sewer trunk line is in jeopardy of failing with land movement that has the potential to cause a significant environmental catastrophe due to its close proximity to the Pacific Ocean.

2022 Legislative Platform
Page A-3
Residential activities are the major land use in the City, with existing and residential uses proposed111 encompassing approximately 5, 500 acres ( 66. 5% of the total land area).

As such, it is vital that local control be maintained to ensure public health and safety. Onesize- fits- all legislation with ministerial review requirements cannot take into account the unique geographic, geologic, and infrastructure constraints required for a project to be successful and to maintain or enhance public safety.

RECENT LEGISLATIVE POSITIONS
On August 4, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020- 46 expressing opposition to proposed planning and zoning legislation that usurps local control and imposes unfunded mandates and expressing support for actions to further strengthen local democracy, authority, and control. It furthermore declares that, should the state continue to pass legislation that attacks local municipal authority, control and revenue, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes will support actions such as a ballot measure that would limit the state' s ability to control local activities and strengthen local democracy and authority.

While the City appreciates the work of the Legislature to propose policies intended to mitigate the housing crisis, sweeping and ministerial measures cannot properly assess their impact on individual communities and their general plans. Streamlined ministerial approval may be a preferred housing solution for the Legislature, but such development, may have significantly detrimental effects on public health and safety. The City is concerned that increasing density by- right will not allow sufficient oversight of infrastructure to ensure that capacities can meet increased residential populations.

Page 229 of 326 ends

2022 Legislative Platform
Page A- 4
II
In general, the City has supported housing legislation which seeks to increase local oversight and flexibility, such as Assemblymember Muratsuchi' s Assembly Constitutional Amendment No. 7 which would amend the State Constitution to require certain local land use controls and zoning regulations remain within incorporated communities when in conflict with general laws.

The City has opposed legislation that erodes local land use authority, such as Senator Atkins' SB 9, which would require ministerial approval of lot splits and duplexes in singlefamily residential zoned areas. The City is deeply concerned that bills such as SB 9, which would potentially quadruple density in single- family zoning by-right would have detrimental effects on the City' s infrastructure capacity, particularly in the event of an emergency. Increasing density without the ability for the City to properly plan for it will negatively impact public safety in a community like Rancho Palos Verdes, and its residents' quality of life.

One- size- fits all laws inherently fail to consider the needs of individual communities and their general plans. Furthermore, the current practice of mandating streamlined local processes does nothing to address encouraging actual affordable development of those properties. The Legislature should consider bills that incentivize affordable developments and provide local agencies the ability to zone for such developments. The tone of recent bills, such as making it easier to build an accessory dwelling unit ( ADU) on a property, does not guarantee that it will be sold below market rate, thereby affordable. In fact, it 111 appears ADU' s are being rented above market rates throughout Los Angeles or being used for other uses than housing ( i. e. gyms, studios, pool cabanas, etc. because of Statemandated relaxed zoning laws). Upzoning parcels is likely to increase the value of the underlying land, which then makes new construction unnecessarily more expensive and over time, raises the values and rents throughout the neighborhoods, making affordable housing even less likely to be built.

POTENTIAL LEGISLATIVE SOLUTIONS
The City is supportive of legislation which seeks to preserve local land use authority and flexibility, giving choices and incentives to cities. Ultimately, the City would support legislation which would allow local governments to adopt proposed legislation if the requirements are suitable in their individual jurisdictions. Local planning departments have the knowledge and skills to prepare creative solutions to the housing crisis that best serve their communities. By- right zoning legislation undermines their ability to exercise the city' s local land use authority and problem- solve based on their city' s unique geographic, geologic, and infrastructure constraints, but with state support, they have the capacity to help alleviate the housing crisis.

The City would additionally continue to support legislation that provides financial assistance to implement new directives, or programs similar to Local Early Action Planning ( LEAP) and Regional Early Action Planning ( REAP) that provide funding to help cities accelerate housing production. The City would also support legislation that provides incentives to cities, such as additional tax revenue or tax breaks. Unfunded mandates are a financial burden to cities which make them difficult to implement successfully.

The City would also support legislation aimed at developers to encourage sustainable, cost- effective development of affordable housing in safe locations across the state.

Legislation which seeks to expand existing programs such as Project Homekey, or similar programs that repurpose existing buildings or underutilized commercial property ( i. e. surface parking lots or single- story shopping centers) into affordable housing are also viable solutions.

When cities are allowed to keep their local land use authority, they will continue to plan and develop new solutions that address their specific constraints, and the state could reward cities for taking such actions with additional tax revenue or tax breaks or policy concessions.

Regional housing needs and legislation increasing density must be balanced by local capacity assessments including traffic conditions, sewer conditions, school district capacity, ingress/ egress capacity, and water supply, among others. Legislation should refocus efforts toward developing programs for cities and state collaboration on housing production, alongside sustainable transportation, broadband deployment, and other key infrastructure areas that can support our communities.

Page 236 of 326 ends

The primary objective of the Legislative Platform is for the City Council to adopt official City positions on specific legislative issues at the start of the legislative session. By doing this, the legislative approval process is streamlined by receiving clear direction at the beginning of the legislative session from the City Council on pertinent legislative issues.

The Platform is developed and maintained using the goals and objectives adopted by the City Council, through research of current law and pending legislation, and through a review of legislative priorities from the League of California Cities.

For proposed legislation, either consistent with the City’s legislative priorities or consistent with legislative positions the City has taken in the past, City staff shall be authorized to prepare position letters for the Mayor’s signature after City Council consideration. Items not addressed in the City’s legislative priorities will require further Council direction, and staff will be required to submit a request to Council. Legislative priorities may only address issues directly relevant to or impacting the provision of municipal services.

City departments may not take positions on legislative issues without City Manager’s Office review and approval.

The process for responding to legislative proposals is streamlined as follows:

2. The Mayor will sign the position letter. If the Mayor is unavailable, the City Manager will sign the position letter.

3. If a legislative issue is not addressed in the Legislative Platform but impacts the City, staff will place the matter on the next City Council agenda for consideration.

4. The position letter will be sent to the bill’s author, the City’s legislative representatives, the League of California Cities, and other stakeholders as deemed appropriate.
