Agenda packet — Solana Beach City Council, July 2, 2025 (part 2 of 2)

DISCUSSION:

On July 13, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolutions 2022-087 and 2022-088 conditionally approving a DRP and SDP for the construction of a replacement singlefamily residence. The Staff Report and meeting video can be reviewed under Item B.2 of the July 13, 2022 City Council Meeting: https://www.cityofsolanabeach.org/en/citycouncil-meetings The Applicant has not yet applied for construction permits or obtained approval from the California Coastal Commission (CCC) for the project. The property, including the DRP and SDP entitlements, has been listed for sale by the Applicant. If the property is sold and the new owner wishes to proceed with the development, they would be subject to the original conditions of approval outlined in Resolution 2022-088.

The Solana Beach Municipal Code (SBMC) Section 17.72.110 indicates that:

One or more (but not more than a total of four) extensions may be granted not exceeding a cumulative total of 24 months after the date the original approval of the project expires. The duration of an extension shall be in an increment of 30 days. The minimum duration of an extension shall be six months. The maximum duration of an extension shall not be more than 12 months. The duration of an extension shall be determined at the discretion of the issuing authority.

The Applicant is requesting to extend the expiration by 12 months to July 13, 2026, with the intent that the property would be sold and a new owner would proceed with the project during that timeframe. The Applicant’s request is included in Attachment 2. The approval includes the requirement that the building permit be issued and the Applicant commence construction prior to the expiration date.

The property is undeveloped and has been subject to multiple Code Enforcement Cases regarding property maintenance (e.g., overgrown vegetation) over the past five years.

Staff has included a condition of approval to require the property owner to maintain the property in accordance with SBMC Chapter 6.06 Neighborhood Preservation.

SBMC Section 17.72.110 establishes that City Council action is required to review and act on a request for an extension of a CUP mod. when City Council was the original approving body. The City Council may extend the approval of a project if they are able to make the seven (7) required findings, which are as follows:

1. The applicant has presented facts which establish that the applicant has timely and diligently pursued issuance of a building permit during the 24-month period following the issuance of the original approval for the project (or the different period set forth as a condition of approval of the project) or during the then current extension period;

2. Circumstances beyond the applicant’s control have intervened and prevented the applicant from obtaining the issuance of a building permit for the project prior to expiration of the 24-month period (or the expiration date established as a condition of the approval) or during the then current extension period;

3. The application for the extension sets forth a reasonable and substantial factual basis for issuance of the extension;

4. There is a substantial factual basis to determine that the applicant will be able to perform the actions necessary to obtain issuance of a building permit prior to expiration of the requested extension;

5. The duration of the extension requested by the applicant is no longer than is reasonably necessary to perform the actions necessary to obtain the issuance of a building permit;

6. There have not been any significant changes in the general plan, applicable specific plan, if any, zoning, or character of the area within which the project is located that would cause the approved project to become inconsistent, incompatible, or nonconforming therewith; and

7. The granting of an extension shall not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.

The draft Resolution of Approval has been prepared by Staff for the consideration of the City Council (Attachment 1). The draft Resolution is based upon the information provided in this report. The City Council may direct Staff to modify Resolution 2025-079 to reflect the findings and conditions it deems appropriate as a part of the public hearing process.

In the alternative, if the City Council determines the request is to be denied, Staff will prepare a Resolution of Denial for an action to be taken at a subsequent City Council meeting.

Notices of a Public Hearing for this project were mailed to property owners and occupants within 300 feet of the project site more than 10 days prior to the City Council date. As of the date of preparation of this Staff Report, no phone calls, letters, or emails have been received by Staff in regard to the extension request.

FROM: Alyssa Muto, City Manager
MEETING DATE: July 2, 2025
ORIGINATING DEPT: Community Development Department - Katie Benson, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: Public Hearing: Request for a Time Extension for an Approved Development Review Permit and Structure
Development Permit for the Construction of Replacement
Single-Family Residence at 506 Pacific Avenue. Case No:

TE25-002; Applicant: Eric Buchanan, APN: 263-042-17,
Resolution 2025-080
BACKGROUND:

The Applicant, Eric Buchanan, on behalf of the property owners, Kendall and Tess Saville, is requesting a 12-month time extension to the Development Review Permit (DRP) and Structure Development Permit (SDP) originally approved on August 24, 2022, with the adoption of Resolution 2022-049, to demolish a single-story, single-family residence, construct a replacement 3,021 square-foot, two-story single-family residence with an attached 377 square-foot two-car garage, and perform associated site improvements at 506 Pacific Avenue.

The City Council adopted Resolution 2020-087 on June 10, 2020, which extended all entitlement expirations approved during the Covid-19 Pandemic Declaration of Emergency by one year. Therefore, the project is set to expire three years from the original approval date, on August 24, 2025. The Applicant applied for the extension request on May 22, 2025. The permit expiration is considered to be on hold until the City Council is able to make a determination on the project.

This item is before the City Council to consider adoption of Resolution 2025-080 (Attachment 1) approving the Applicant’s request to formally extend the project approval as provided under the Solana Beach Municipal Code (SBMC) 17.72.110 for 12 months starting from the current expiration date of August 24, 2025.

DISCUSSION:

On August 24, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution 2022-049 conditionally approving a DRP and SDP for the construction of a replacement single-family residence.

Following City Council approval of the project, the Boyd’s sold the property and entitlements to the Saville’s. The Saville’s have received authorization from the California Coastal Commission (CCC), have completed plan check and are pending issuance for all applicable permits from the City. The only outstanding requirement is a Notice of Service Discontinuance from San Diego Gas and Electric (SDG&E) prior to the issuance of permits. The Applicant was informed by SDG&E that the gas lateral line servicing 506 Pacific Avenue also serves the adjacent property, 504 Pacific Avenue. Therefore, SDG&E cannot discontinue service to the subject property and allow construction permits to be issued until the joint lateral issue is resolved. The Applicant’s request is included in Attachment 2.

The Solana Beach Municipal Code (SBMC) Section 17.72.110 indicates that:

Re: Permit Time Extension
Resolution 2022-049
506 Pacific Avenue, Solana Beach
Dear Katie Benson,
Oasis Architecture & Design represents the interests of Kendall and Tess Saville (the “Applicant”) regarding the proposed single family residence redevelopment at 506 Pacific Avenue.

This project was designed and ultimately approved by the City Council for the original property owner, Jim and Kathleen Boyd, per Resolution 2022-049. Since the approval, the Boyd’s decided not to move forward with the project and ultimately listed the property for sale. The property was then purchased by Kendall and Tess Saville, who engaged with Oasis Architecture & Design to make interior design revisions to better suit their family’s needs. Those changes were made, coordinated with the civil, structural and landscape consultants, and submitted to the Solana Beach Building Department for grading and building permits. Those permits, GRD24-0004 and B24-0452, have been approved and are ready for issuance. One of the required issuance items is a Letter of Discontinuance from SDG&E stating that all existing utilities have been disconnected and the existing building is safe for demolition.

After engaging with SDG&E, they informed us that the gas lateral line that serves the 506 Pacific Ave property also serves the neighbor property to the south at 504 Pacific Ave. We have now been waiting several months for SDG&E to resolve the joint gas lateral issue and are no closer to getting the required letter. This delay is not within our control and will extend beyond the current permit deadline.

We are asking for a time extension to allow for SDG&E to resolve the joint gas lateral issue and provide us with the Letter of Discontinuance needed to get our permits issued.

Brian and Larna Hartnack (hereinafter referred to as “Applicant”) are requesting a 12- month time extension to the Development Review Permit (DRP) and Structure Development Permit (SDP) Waiver originally approved on August 23, 2023, with the adoption of Resolution 2023-104, to convert a 555 square-foot attached garage to living area, construct a 784 square-foot living area addition and a 668 square-foot two-car attached garage addition to a single-story single-family residence, and perform associated site improvements at 508 South Nardo Avenue.

The project is set to expire 24 months from the original approval date and on August 23, 2025. The Applicant applied for the extension request on May 19, 2025. The permit expiration is considered to be on hold until the City Council is able to make a determination on the project.

This item is before the City Council to consider adoption of Resolution 2025-081 (Attachment 1) approving the Applicant’s request to formally extend the project approval as provided under the Solana Beach Municipal Code (SBMC) 17.72.110 for 12 months starting from the current expiration date of August 23, 2025.

DISCUSSION:

On August 23, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution 2023-104 conditionally approving a DRP and SDP Waiver for the construction of a remodel and addition to a single-family residence. The Staff Report and meeting video can be reviewed under Item B.1 of the August 23, 2023 City Council Meeting:
https://www.cityofsolanabeach.org/en/city-council-meetings Current access for the existing property is provided by a private access easement off South Nardo Avenue that does not meet the minimum standards for emergency access.

Instead of upgrading the existing non-standard access, the Applicant chose to wait until the construction of Bell Ranch Road is completed by the developer of the Ocean Ranch Subdivision and then construct driveway access to the subject property along Bell Ranch Road. Bell Ranch Road has been paved but is not open to public traffic at this time. The Applicant continues to utilize the private access easement to access the property. The houses on Lots 1 through 4 of the Ocean Ranch Subdivision must be substantially complete before the subject property is able to connect to Bell Ranch Road for access and to proceed with construction of the approved remodel and addition. It is anticipated that the 12-month extension will be sufficient time for the Bell Ranch Road improvements to be completed to the extent necessary, and for Lots 1 through 4 of Ocean Ranch to be substantially complete, for the Applicant to proceed with construction of the subject project.

The Applicant’s request for the Time Extension is included in Attachment 2.

The Solana Beach Municipal Code (SBMC) Section 17.72.110 indicates that:

Page 3 of 4 ends

3. The application for the extension sets forth a reasonable and substantial factual basis for issuance of the extension;

5. The duration of the extension requested by the applicant is no longer than is reasonably necessary to perform the actions necessary to obtain the issuance of a building permit;

7. The granting of an extension shall not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.

The draft Resolution of Approval has been prepared by Staff for the consideration of the City Council. The draft Resolution is based upon the information provided in this report.

The City Council may direct Staff to modify Resolution 2025-081 to reflect the findings and conditions it deems appropriate as a part of the public hearing process. In the alternative, if the City Council determines the request is to be denied, Staff will prepare a Resolution of Denial for an action to be taken at a subsequent City Council meeting.

SUBJECT: Public Hearing – Request for a DRP Modification to the Approved Replacement Single-Family Residence at 446
Seabright Lane to Add a Privacy Hedge and a Tree in the Rear Yard (Case #: MOD25-006 Applicant: Darren and
Rachel Levitt; APN: 263-061-14; Resolution No. 2025-082) BACKGROUND:

On October 25, 2023, the City Council (Council) adopted Resolution 2023-117 approving a Development Review Permit (DRP, DRP23-003) to demolish a single-family residence, construct a replacement single-family residence with a partially subterranean garage, and perform associated site improvements including grading, hardscaping, and landscaping at 446 Seabright Lane. Darren and Rachel Levitt (herein referred to as “Applicant”) are requesting City Council approval of a Modification to the DRP to modify the approved landscape plan by adding a privacy hedge along the rear (east) property line and an anchor tree in the rear yard.

The issue before the Council is whether to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the Applicant’s request for a Modification to the original project approval as contained in Resolution 2025-082 (Attachment 1). The modified landscape plan is included in Attachment 2.

DISCUSSION:

The Council adopted Resolution 2023-117 on October 25, 2023, approving the original project, which included a replacement single-family residence. The Staff Report and meeting video can be reviewed under Item B.3 of the July 13, 2022 City Council Meeting:

Resolution 2024-075 on June 26, 2024, under Item B.3 approving the Applicant’s first request to modify the DRP by adding 11 square feet of floor area and additional trellises.

While under construction with the approved and modified project, the adjacent neighbor to the east removed vegetation along the shared property line that previously provided privacy between the two properties. The Applicant is requesting Council approval to modify the landscape plan to plant a variety of trees along the rear property line and a new tree in the rear yard to replace privacy previously provided by vegetation located along the rear property line. The Applicant’s request to modify the landscape plan is included in Attachment 3. The neighbor located immediately to the east (Limmer) also provided a letter in support of the updates to the planting plan and referenced a private tree maintenance agreement between the two property owners, which is included in Attachment 4. Below is a markup version of the revised landscape planting plan that highlights the proposed trees.

Development Review Permit Compliance (SBMC Section 17.68.40):

Pursuant to SBMC Section 17.68.040(L), an amendment (modification) to an existing DRP may be requested and shall follow the same procedures as the DRP. The Council may approve, or conditionally approve, a Modification to a DRP only if all of the findings listed below can be made. Resolution 2022-074 provides the full discussion of the findings.

Waypo1n• • t - - ANALYTICAL _
Project: 446 Seabri1ht • Solana Beach
Attached are the results of the analysis performed on a soil sample that was collected from the above. mentioned project site from a depth or 4 to 8 inches by the client ;rnd recei~ed by our laboratoiy on November 27, 2023. This sample w.is anillyzed for nutrient levels, agricultural suitability, and physial characteristics in preparation for a new landscape installation.

Analytical Results and Comments
The reaction of the soil is slightly .ilk.i1ine ill 7.4 on the pH scale with free lime fa1Jorably low. These levels are within th~ range preferred for most plants.

Salinity (ECc ) and sodium are safely low. The sodium present is properly balanced by calcium .tnd magnesium with regard to soll structure and water lnflltratlon, as Indicated by the safe sodium adsorption rc1tio (SAR) ofO.S.

In 1erms of fertility, nitrogen and pho~phorus are low. In the minor element category, manganese is low. The remaining nutrients are well supplied.

The soil 1e1rture Is cl.isslfied as a 'clay loam' under the USDA standards. The water infiltration rate is estimc1ted at a moderate 0.19 inches per hour, based on the particle size distribution data. The actual infiltrc1tion rate may vary dep1mding upon the desree of compaction. This soil h.is a higher proportion of flne particles than desired in terms of allowing adequate aeration and drainage, with the soil comprised of 60.9% silt and clay. This .soil will have a high moisture holding capacity; therefore, the surface and subsoil moisture should be routlnely monitored and irri1atlons scheduled accordingly. Organic content Is low at 0. 76% dry weight.

Recommendations
Surface Soll Preparation for Mass Plantlng
If feasible, prior to am@nding the areas where severe compaction @xists, the surface soil should be ripped or tilled to a 9•inch deplh. Uniformly broadcast and blend the following with existing soil to a 6· inch depth.

Materials Amount per 1000 sq . ft.

Nitrogen fortified organic amendment
(compost• or redwood or fir sawdust)
16-20-0 Ammonium Phosphate
4cu. vards
91bs.
*Rates and fertilizers may have to be adjusted depending on analysls of selected compost.

Tree and Shrub Planting Guidelines

1. Excavate planting pits at least twlce the diameter of the rootball.

2. The top of the rootball should be at or slightly above final grade.

3. To improve soil chemistry, uniformly blend l lb. of Iron sulfat e per cubic yard of backflll soll. Handle Iron sulfate with caution since it wilt se11erely stain moist concrete.

4. Organic material 1s not required in the backfill; however, If you wish, the amended surface sol! or a soil blend consisting of no more than 20" by volume organic matter c.in be placed ln the upper 12 incht>s of backfill only. Soil below this depth should not cont.a in anv added organic matter becaus@ ~hreat of plant disease and/or anaerobic soil conditions developing.

5. Place slow release fertilizer tablets in the upper 12 inches of backfill at milnufacturer's recommended ra tes. If fertilizer amended soil pu the man planting recommendation is used as a backfill the addition of slow release fertihzer tablets is not necessary.

6. Do not cov@r the original rootbilll with other soil. Ideally, a temporary soil berm is often constructed around the outer edge of the rootball to help channel water into the rootball and then into surrounding soil until roots are established In the backfill and the rootball ls no longer the sole source of water for the plant.

7. ldec1lly, a weed and turf free zone, pref@rably 2·3 ft. in diameter, should be maintained just beyond the diameter of the planting hole. A 2-4 inch deep layer of coarse mulch can be placed around the tree or shrub; mulch should be kept a mlnlmum 4--6 Inches from the trunk. 4741 East Hunter A11e., Ste. A Anaheim CA 92807

Maintenance Fertilization
Uniformly broadcast sulfur coated urea at a rate of 5 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft .. The first application should occur appro,dmately 60-90 days after p!antlng, with repeat appUcatlons every 90-120 days or as growth and color dictate. In u rly fall and spring, substitute ii complete f@rtilizer such as 16·&8, or equal, for the sulfur coated ur@a at th@ rate of 6 lbs. per l OCKl sq. ft. to ensure continuing supplies of phosphorus and potassium. Follow each fertilization with a thorough irriiation. When plants have become well established. fertilizer applications can be less fr@quent.

As noted above, mangane5e ls below optimum. When micronutrlenu are low, especially in an alkaline soil, deficiencies can some:tim~ show in thl'! plants. If deficiencle:s show once plants have becom@ established, they may be addressed upon the first sign of deficiency. Symptoms of manaanese deficiency may be seen as a general Ion of color in the young leaves, followed by yellowing between veins and brownish-black spots appearing. If these symptoms are apparent once plants are established, 1hen applic.1Uon of manganese chelate at the manufacturer's lab@I rate may improve appearance.

Chelates are generally more effecti\le on alkaline soils than some of the other forms of trace elements.

Re: MOD25-006, DRP23-003
To Whom It May Concern:

Thank you for the opportunity to speak today. I am here to respectfully request your approval of an Amendment to our Landscape Plan for our home at 446 Seabright Ln., related to a recent change along the property line we share with our neighbors at N. Rios.

Earlier this year, a row of mature boundary line Ficus trees was removed without our consent.

These trees were critical in maintaining our privacy and contributed to the character of both properties.

We have engaged in a constructive dialogue with our neighbors and together we developed a mutually agreeable landscape plan, presented to you tonight, that supports the long-term interests of both households. We have submitted their written letter of support and, in addition, we have jointly signed a private tree maintenance agreement to help ensure that future landscaping decisions are made collaboratively, with mutual respect for privacy and view considerations.

We respectfully ask for the Council’s approval of this modification so this shared plan can be put into action. Thank you for your time and consideration. I’m happy to answer any questions you may have.

Thank you,
Darren Levitt

STAFF REPORT

CITY OF SOLANA BEACH
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Johanna N. Canlas, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: July 2, 2025
ORIGINATING DEPT: City Attorney’s Office
SUBJECT: City Council Consideration of Resolution 2025-075 Approving the First Amendment to the City Manager’s
Employment Agreement
BACKGROUND:

The City Council appointed Alyssa Noelle Maxson Muto as the City Manager and approved the corresponding Employment Agreement (Agreement), effective May 6, 2024. Pursuant to Section C(1)(a) of the Agreement, the City Council conducts an evaluation of the City Manager’s performance in May of each year. The performance evaluation concluded and warranted changes to the benefits and compensation for the City Manager.

DISCUSSION:

State law requires that all City executive officers’ compensation be approved on a duly noticed public meeting in open session. The action before the City Council is the consideration of an amendment to the City Manager’s Employment Agreement reflecting a base salary increase of 10% to $275,000.00, an additional forty (40) hours of management leave per year, an increase to the maximum vacation cash-out allowance to 120 hours per year, and an increase to the vehicle allowance to $600.00 per month. Also, the term of the employment agreement will be indefinite.

Changes to the compensation and benefits require an amendment to the Agreement between the City and Ms. Muto. The proposed First Amendment to the Agreement is attached.

Finally, the increase to the maximum vacation cash-out amount will be extended to Executive Management Employees. The City Manager is directed to update Administrative Policy No. 42 to reflect this change.

First Amendment to the City Manager’s Employment Agreement

Page 2 of 2 ends

4900-0572-5521 v1
CEQA COMPLIANCE STATEMENT: Not a project as defined by CEQA.

FISCAL IMPACT: Should the amendment be approved, the total estimated fiscal impact of this amendment would be $36,282. However, since the fiscal impacts of the increased vacation cash-out would not be until FY 2027, the actual impact for FY 2026 would be $30,382. Of this cost, $29,182 was already incorporated in the FY 2026 Adopted Budget and it is anticipated the remaining $1,200 can be absorbed within the existing City Manager budget.

WORK PLAN: N/A
OPTIONS:
• Approve the First Amendment to the City Manager’s Employment Agreement • Do not approve the First Amendment to the City Manager’s Employment Agreement and provide direction as needed.

DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION:

The Council subcommittee recommends that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution 2025-075 authorizing the Mayor to execute the First Amendment to the Employment Agreement between the City of Solana Beach and Alyssa Noelle Maxson Muto to reflect a base salary increase of 10% to $275,000.00 annually, effective the first full pay period after May 6, 2025, an additional forty (40) hours of management leave accrued per year, an increase to the maximum vacation cash-out allowance to 120 hours annually, and an increase to the vehicle allowance to $600.00 per month. ____________________________

SUBJECT: Farewell to Foam Act (S.897 and H.R.1918)
Dear Senators and Representatives,
We, the undersigned local elected officials, business owners, and community leaders, are writing to ask you to take action to reduce plastic foam by cosponsoring and passing the Farewell to Foam Act (S.897 and H.R.1918). This timely bill addresses a pervasive threat to the environment and human health and follows the actions of many local governments, states, and businesses to phase out plastic foam products.

Plastic foam, formally known as expanded polystyrene, is a lightweight, brittle material that breaks up into small pieces, spreading easily in water and air. Plastic foam pollutes oceans, rivers, and lakes, and it is among the top 10 most littered items across the U.S.i,ii Polystyrene, which includes plastic foam, has been found in drinking water, the air, and even in our bodies.iii, iv, v Plastic foam is everywhere, and the associated risks are too costly to ignore.

Plastic foam is among the most abundant forms of marine plastic pollution, and was one of the first types of plastic discovered in the ocean.i,vi Particles of plastic foam and other types of polystyrene have been increasing in coastal sediments, some of the sea’s deepest trenches, and coastal wetlands and bays, where young fish grow and mature.vii,viii,ix,x,xi Plastic foam can act as a sponge soaking up other toxic chemicals in the water.vi Sea turtles, seabirds, and other ocean wildlife can mistake plastic foam for food, and this can block their digestive systems or lead to starvation.i
Even when plastic foam is not fatal, it is one more stressor for vulnerable ocean wildlife experiencing the threats of habitat loss, overfishing, and pollution.

Plastic foam also poses significant health risks to people. The primary building block of plastic foam, styrene, is a probable human carcinogen and has been linked to lymphatic cancers and leukemia.xii High levels of exposure to styrene can cause respiratory and eye irritation, vision and hearing loss, and impaired memory and concentration.xiii Faced with evidence of polystyrene’s harmful effects, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that parents avoid exposing their children to products made of polystyrene, which includes plastic foam.xiv More than 8 million metric tons, or 17.6 billion pounds, of plastic foam are produced globally every year.xv Of the plastic foam discarded in the U.S., only 1% or less gets recycled.xvi, xvii, xviii CITY OF SOLANA BEACH www.cityofsolanabeach.org

Fortunately, local governments and states are leading the way to address the problem of plastic foam pollution. As of May 2025, 12 states and more than 200 counties and cities have passed policies to curb single-use plastic foam.xix These policies are working. For example, after Charleston, South Carolina banned foam takeout boxes in 2018, the city saw a 20% decrease in this type of trash during beach clean-ups the following year.xx The American public recognizes policy change as a solution to plastic foam. National polling released by Oceana in 2025 found that 78% of registered U.S. voters, including Republicans, Democrats, and Independents, support policies to reduce single-use plastic foam.xxi Now, it’s time for a nationwide policy to stop plastic foam pollution at the source. The Farewell to Foam Act would phase out the sale and distribution of single-use plastic foam, including foodware, packing peanuts, and foam coolers, across the country. For the sake of our environment, our health, and our communities, we call on Congress to pass this bill.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
Lesa Heebner
