After review. staff was directed to correct the information for Conformance to the General Plan No. 80-6 and bring it back to the Commission at its March 18, 1980 meeting. Commissioner Bazil requested that the minutes of the meeting of February 20, 1980 be corrected to reflect a request for a written legal opinion in regard to the old Pacific Electric right-of-way. ON MOTION BY PORTER AND SECOND BY WINCHELL THE CONSENT AGENDA, CONSISTING OF THE AMENDED MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF FEBRUARY 20, 1980, CONFORMANCE WITH GENERAL PLAN NO. 80-5, AND AN EXTENSION OF TIME FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 78-13 AND TENTATIVE TRACT 10414, WAS APPROVED BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: AYES: Winchell, Porter, Bazil NOES: None ABSENT: Greer, Shea, Bauer ABSTAIN: Kenefick ORAL COMMUNICATIONS: None REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS: I AMENDMENT TO THE LAND USE ELEMENT NO. 80-1 (Cont. from Feb. 20, 1980) Initiated by the Department of Development Services i Staff planner June Catalano reviewed the three areas of concern to be considered, as well as outlining the addition of energy con- servation policies into the Land Use Element of the General Plan. I Minutes, H.B. Planning Commission March 4, 1980 Page 2 Chuck Clark, Associate Planner, gave a brief review of the results of staff's study of these areas and presented the reasons for the staff's recommendations for each area. Savoy Bellavia informed the Commission that a tape of the meeting of February 20 was available at the meeting for Commissioners who had not been present at that meeting. A recess was called to permit Commissioner Kenefick to listed to this tape; the meeting was recon- vened at 7:40 p.m. The public hearing was opened. Testimony was taken area -by -area. Richard Hammond, general manager of Cambro, addressed the Commission in favor of retaining the industrial designation on the Garfield/Golden- west area of concern. He cited the incompatibility between existing industrial uses and the existing and future residential developments which will be constructed if the area is designated medium density residential as recommended by staff. Donald Weir, 201 20th Street, addressed the Commission also in opposition to residential zoning in the subject area. John Gustafson, property developer in the area, spoke in favor of an industrial designation being carried down to Clay Avenue, rather than redesignation to residential. He noted that such use would be more compatible with existing uses, would supply a need in the com- munity, and would generate tax revenues. William J. Scott, 2978 Costa Mesa Drive, also favored retention of the existing industrial designation in the area. Dick Harlow, representing the Huntington Beach Company, concurred with staff's recommendation for medium density residential in the Garfield/Goldenwest area of concern, saying that the long-term effects of residential would be more beneficial -to -the City than would the effects of further industrial development. George Woods, representing the applicant on four acres of the area of concern south of Talbert Avenue and west of Beach Boulevard, spoke to urge the Commission to approve medium density residential for this area. Lee Collins, co-owner of 5 acres within the site, also supported des- ignation as medium density residential for this area of concern. There were no persons present to speak in regard to the other area and items contained in this amendment, and the public hearing was closed. Commission discussion followed, centering in the main on the desig- nation of the Garfield/Goldenwest area of concern. Fiscal impacts, compatibility of both designations with existing uses, and impacts on the existing oil wells in the vicinity were considered. Commis- sioner Porter questioned whether or not the phasing out of the -2- 3-4-80 - P.C. Minutes, H.B. Planning Commission March 4, 1980 Page 3 oil production would be accelerated by the residential designation. Chuck Clark replied that it would be the staff's recommendation that the "0" suffix be retained on any redesignation for the life of the existing wells, which given the present energy situation would probably be 15 to 20 years. Commissioner Porter pointed out that large landowners are able to develop residential in conjunction with oil production by the use of islands, but that this option is not available to small property owners and the re- source production facilities would not be compatible with residential in his opinion. Commissioner Kenefick also expressed reservations about the mix of uses. Commissioner Bazil spoke in favor of redesignatiqn to residential for the majority of the subject area, but asked that the staff consider retaining an industrial designation for the small parcel between the railroad right-of-way to Huntington Street between Clay and Garfield Avenues. Further discussion took place, which indicated that no majority decision could be reached on the amend- ment at this meeting. Straw votes were asked for, producing the following results: Garfield/Goldenwest Area of Concern: Industrial designation, Porter and Kenefick; Residential designation, Winchell and Bazil. Talbert, west of Beach Area of Concern: Medium Density designa- tion, Kenefick, Porter, Bazil; Retaining present R1-PD-Q designa- tion, Winchell. Talbert, east of Beach Area of Concern: Unanimous vote in favor of redesignation to institutional. Administrative Items: Unanimous vote to add energy conservation policies to the Land Use Element. Staff was instructed to ask absent members to listen to the tape of this meeting prior to further consideration of the matter.

Minutes, H.B. Planning Commission March 4, 1980 Page 5 i 2. Commercial development on the property will be compatible with surrounding land uses. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: 1. Upon approval of Zone Change 80-1 the applicant shall file a parcel map with the City to combine the subject site with the one -acre parcel to the south. The newly created parcel shall be developed with one integrated project. 2. A 50-foot front yard setback shall be established from the ultimate street right-of-way on the site. AYES: Winchell, Kenefick, Porter, Bazil NOES: None ABSENT: Greer, Shea, Bauer ABSTAIN: None A recess was called at 8:55 p.m.; the Commission reconvened at 9:05 p.m. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 79-22/TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO. 79-585/ NEGATIVE DECLARATION NO. 80-8/CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 80-01 Applicant: Jerwel Laderbel (Continued from 2-20-80) To permit a redesign of a previously approved 270,000 square foot office/commercial/hotel complex to a 407,000 square foot office/commercial complex and to permit a 27-foot encroachment into a required 30-foot setback and a reduction of parking space sizes within a parking structure and surface parking areas. Subject property is located within an area bounded by the San Diego Freeway on the northeast, Center Drive on the south, and Huntington Village Way on the west. Savoy Bellavia reported that the proposal has had a complete plan check and is in compliance with the code provisions except for the variations requested under the conditional exception application. The staff in its review feels that the 7'6" width proposed for compact stalls is too narrow and should not be less than 8 feet; that some provision must be made for parking during the course of construction of the parking structure; and that the Commission should require a planned sign program for the project. The public hearing for all four applications was reopened. Jerry Kline reviewed the history of the site from the original specific plan designation and outlined the market studies and analyses which have shown that the site is not economically suitable for hotel construction. A representative of the arch- itectural firm responsible for the project described the siting of the buildings which will buffer the project both from adjac- ent land uses and the freeway; the plans for smooth traffic circulation, both vehicular and F0estrian; and the methods by Minutes, H.B. Planning Commis3ion March 4, 1980 Page 6 which the buildings will be made energy efficient both for the present (by use of solar panels for the domestic water systems, separate electrical metering for individual floors, and openable windows to cut down use of the air conditioning system) and for the future by provision for ultimate conversion of the entire struc- tures to solar energy when that source becomes more feasible and realistic. Mr. Kline again addressed the Commission to ask for relief from the following suggested conditions of approval: 1) the requirement for angled parking at some locations on the site; 2) the new traffic study; and 3) the requirement for participation in drainage district assessments and fees. The public hearings were closed. The Commission reviewed the original intent of the North Huntington Center Specific Plan and the uses permitted for the area. Also discussed were the staff recommendations and the applicant's request for relief from some of the suggested conditions of approval. Sign- ing for the project was reviewed in some detail, and it was the con- currence of the Commission that a new sign program should be submitted and incorporated after approval into the Specific Plan itself. Mr. Kline, the applicant, concurred with this approach. Commissioner Porter discussed the condition requiring additional traffic study, and suggested instead that the Traffic Engineer could determine at what point a signal would be needed at the intersection of Center Drive and the main entry into the project; he also said that the applicants should be made responsible for no more than 50 percent of this signalization, as other uses than theirs would make use of the signal. However, full responsibility for the signal at McFadden should be assumed by the developer. The Commission discussed the drainage district requirements, and it was determined to permit the condition of approval to stand so that easements, fees, and bonding as necessary can be worked out to the satisfaction of the Department of Public Works. ON MOTION BY KENEFICK AND SECOND BY BAZIL NEGATIVE DECLARATION NO. 80-8 WAS APPROVED BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: AYES: Winchell, Kenefick, Porter, Bazil NOES: None ABSENT: Greer, Shea, Bauer ABSTAIN: None ON MOTION BY KENEFICK AND SECOND BY BAZIL CONDITIONAL EXCEPTION NO. 80-01 WAS APPROVED WITH THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS, BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: FINDINGS: 1.

Planning Commission March 4, 1980 Page 7 all applicable provisions of the North Huntington Center Specific Plan. 2. Because of the size and configuration of the subject site and the type of development proposed for this site, the reduction of the required parking stall size (as approved) does not constitute a special privilege nor will it be materially detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare of the neighborhood or the City in general. 3. The applicant is willing and able to carry out the purpose for which the conditional exception is sought and will pro- ceed to do so without unnecessary delay. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: 1.

Minutes, H.B. Planning Commission March 4, 1980 Page 14 STAFF ITEMS: Senior Planner June Catalano distributed copies of the draft Trans- portation Model and announced a conference on the model to be held On March 18, 1980. Commissioners are invited to attend the morning session. COMMISSIONER ITEMS: Commissioner Kenefick requested that staff pursue obtaining a HUD video-tape relating to housing costs for viewing by the Commission. She also expressed the opinion that it is unproductive for the Com- mission to attend City Council study sessions upon invitation when their input is not required. After discussion, the staff was directed to investigate the possibility of one or two commissioners attending such Council meetings as representatives of the Commission rather than the entire membership, unless the meeting is an official joint study session. Commissioner Bazil discussed attendance at meetings and directed staff to prepare a roster of attendance at past meetings so that he may communicate with absentees.
