AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH
AMENDING CHAPTER 4.2 OF THE HUNTINGTON BEACH SPECIFIC PLAN
RELATING TO THE DOWNTOWN PARKING MASTER PLAN
The City Council of the City of Huntington Beach does hereby ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. Section 4.2.14 of the Huntington Beach Specific Plan is hereby amended
to read as follows:
4.2.14 The Downtown Parking Master Plan
The Downtown Parking Master Plan is based on a shared parking concept. Shared
parking in effect allows one (1) parking space to serve two (2) or more individual land
uses without conflict. Shared parking relies on the variations in the peak parking
demand for different uses. In other words, parking demands will fluctuate in
relationship to the mix of uses by hour, day of week, and season. The proper mix will
create an interrelationship among different uses and activities which results in a
reduction of the demand for parking.
The Downtown core area is centered along the Main Street commercial corridor. This
commercial corridor divides into two (2) distinct areas,north and south of Orange.
The area which encompasses the Downtown Parking Master Plan is identified on the
area map (Figure 4.1).
Area 1 -The area south of Orange Avenue along Main Street provides the greatest
amount of public parking opportunities both off-street and on-street. Area I has the
greatest number of visitor-serving and seasonal commercial uses including year round
entertainment. This area also has the greatest concentration of expanded commercial,
restaurant and office uses, and therefore, the majority of the public parking spaces are
provided in this area.
Expanding commercial activity in this area remains the focus of the Downtown Master
Plan,however, no additional parking for new or expanded commercial,restaurant and
office uses should be required provided the total square footage and mix of uses do not
exceed the Master Plan projections. The city shall retain the option to purchase
property for a public parking facility.
Area 2 -The area north of Orange Avenue along Main Street provides limited amounts
of public parking opportunities. This area is still part of the Downtown core.
However, the commercial uses in Area 2 cater more to year-round residents, therefore,
additional on-street short-term parking is provided. The existing Downtown public
parking facilities are not conveniently located for use in this area, thus, a combination
of expanded on-street and on-site parking may be necessary for new or expanded
commercial uses. The commercial activity remains primarily service-related
commercial; the existing supply of on-street and on-site parking should be sufficient
for anticipated uses. The mix of commercial and residential activities can justify a
parking reduction and additional parking may not be necessary if development does

Exhibit:. A 1 et= 7
Res. No. 2000-107
not exceed the Master Plan projections. The city shall retain the option to purchase
property for a public parking facility.
City-owned and controlled public parking in the Downtown Parking Master Plan
(DPMP) area shall be consistent with the City's certified land use plan. The DPMP is
structured to protect beach user parking by providing adequate public parking within
the Downtown area. The DPMP encourages the use of the City-owned and controlled
parking sites within the DPMP area. To encourage the use of the City-owned public
parking facilities, parking controls such as time limits, and parking rates may be
adjusted to maintain the desired use of these spaces by patrons and employees of the
downtown area. A validation program for the City-owned public parking structure has
been established as an incentive for the use of the structure by the patrons and
employees of the downtown area. Any changes to the program shall be submitted to
the Executive Director to determine if an amendment to the Specific Plan is necessary.
The Downtown Parking Master Plan anticipates a total development scenario of
approximately 715,000 square feet of commercial activity. The DPMP has
development thresholds of 144,000 square feet for restaurant, 300,000 square feet for
retail, 126,000 square feet for office and 145,000 square feet for miscellaneous
development. Area I will contain approximately 626,000 square feet of commercial
development, with the remaining 89,000 square feet in Area 2. The Planning
Department shall be responsible for monitoring the development square footage per
land use and the number of parking spaces within the Downtown Parking Master Plan
area.
An annual review and monitoring report of the Downtown Parking Master Plan shall
be prepared by the Planning Department and presented for review by the Planning
Commission and City Council. Following the review by the City Council, the
Downtown Parking Master Plan annual review and monitoring report shall be
submitted to the Executive Director of the California Coastal Commission for review.
The Downtown Parking Master Plan annual review and monitoring report shall
include, at a minimum:
1) amount and type of development square footage approved during the annual
review period;
2) total amount of square footage in the Downtown Parking Master Plan area;
3) an inventory of existing parking spaces;
4) a parking utilization study;
5) an assessment of parking demand compared with parking supply;
6) a determination of whether adequate parking remains to serve development
allowed up to the total development cap.
If the Downtown Parking Master Plan annual review and monitoring report indicates
that the parking supply is inadequate to serve the approved level of development or if
the development square footage exceeds the amount described above(up to 715,000
square feet total), all development within the Downtown Parking Master Plan area
shall provide parking consistent with Off-Street Parking and Loading Provisions of the
Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance, unless and until new parking to
meet the identified demand is approved and constructed.
Changes between one or more of the individual use categories may be allowed as long
as the total square footage does not exceed 715,000 square feet provided there are
corresponding changes in the other use categories to assure adequate parking remains.

Res. No. 2000-107
Parking shall be provided for each Area. If a project is built in Area One that requires
more shared parking than is available in Area One, credit from Area Two shall not be
used. If a project is built in Area Two that requires more shared parking than is
available in Area Two, credit from Area One shall not be used.
Although the Downtown Parking Master Plan distinguishes between the location and
type of parking resources available in Area I and Area 2, the adjusted parking
requirement for both Area I and Area 2 is the same (Figure 4.2). The common
parking requirement is based on the shared parking concept for the entire master plan
area.
Existing and proposed building square footage and uses identified in the technical
background report prepared by Kaku Associates (Sept., 2000), entitled "Downtown
Parking Master Plan Update," (Appendix - Existing and Proposed Land Use Analysis
Blocks A- I) are parked within the public parking supply within the Downtown
Parking Master Plan. In the event a property owner demolishes his/her existing
building, and rebuilds a new building of equal square footage and use,no additional
parking shall be required. Any code required parking spaces provided on-site shall be
credited for any expansion of square footage or intensification of use. All required
parking shall be calculated based on the reduced requirements of the Downtown
Parking Master Plan.
The Planning Commission or City Council may impose one (1), all, or a combination
of the following requirements to ensure that adequate parking is provided for each
development:
1. Require projects over 30,000 sq. $. or one-half(1/2) block in size provide 50% of
the code-required parking identified in Figure 4.2.
2. Require that any parking in-lieu fees be full cost recovery based on the parking
requirement for specific uses. However, allow that these fees be paid over an
amortization period, with appropriate security provided by the applicant to
guarantee payment.
3. Require valet parking once the maximum build out of restaurant activity has been
obtained.
4. Commercial projects greater than 10,000 square feet in size shall be required to
submit a parking management plan consistent with the Downtown Parking Master
Plan.
5. Require valet and/or remote parking for special events and activities, and during
the peak summer season.
b. Require the applicant to provide additional on-site and/or off-site parking for any
development.
7. Develop parking options which may generate additional parking for any
development.
8. Develop a sign program to direct motorists to primary parking facilities within the
Downtown Parking Master Plan..
