A RESOLUTION BY THE HUNTINGTON BEACH CITY COUNCIL WHICH
ENDORSES A MODIFIED ALTERNATIVE LAND USE PLAN C WITH
DECREASED LAND USE INTENSITY CONTAINED IN THE GENERAL
DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE PROPOSED PHASE 2 EXPANSION OF THE
EXISTING ORANGE COUNTY SUNSET AQUATIC REGIONAL PARK
WHEREAS, the Orange County Environmental Management Agency,
Harbors, Beaches and Parks Division has requested an endorsement
from the City of Huntington Beach regarding Alternatives A, B,
and C land use plans contained in the General Development Plan
dated August 26, 1988 for the proposed Phase 2 expansion of the
existing Sunset Aquatic Regional Park for a report to the Orange
County Board of Supervisors; and
On November 21, 1988, the City Council reviewed the
alternative land use plans for the proposed Phase 2 expansion of
the existing Orange County Sunset Aquatic Regional Park and
concurs with the recommendation of the Planning Commission which
endorses Alternative C land use plan with decreased dry boat
storage spaces and decreased boat ramp parking spaces; and
On September 7, 1988, a public hearing was held before the
Planning Commission and all interested parties were notified of
the public hearing for the purpose of reviewing the three land
use plans; and
No one spoke in favor of the proposed overnight camping
contained in Alternative A and B during public testimony at the
1 _ 5933
September 7, 1988 Planning Commission meeting.
The Planning Commission found during the public hearing of the
aforementioned project that:
1 . Alternatives A and B which propose overnight camping are
not acceptable,
2 . The proposed overnight camping may create security and
invasion of privacy problems for existing neighborhoods and
should not be permitted,
3 . The land use intensity of all three expansion alternatives
as proposed will intensify land and water environmental
impacts, and
4 . The land use intensity of Alternate C as proposed may
create undue traffic, parking, and circulation problems
along Edinger Avenue between Bolsa Chica Street and at the
facility entrance, therefore, the land use intensity should
be reduced.
The Planning Commission of the City of Huntington Beach
discussed in great detail Alternative C land use plan and the
Planning Commission of City of Huntington Beach endorses a
modified Alternative C land use plan with decreased land use
intensity if environmental impacts can be properly mitigated and
