HUNTINGTON BEACH APPROVING GENERAL PLAN
AMENDMENT NO. 00-01 HOUSING ELEMENT UPDATE
WHEREAS,the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach desires to update and
refine the General Plan in keeping with changing community needs and objectives; and
On August 22, 2000, a Notice of Availability was noticed in the paper for review of the
draft Housing Element for interested parties; and
Pursuant to California Government Code §§65586-65588, the City must complete the
revision to its Housing Element to meet the provisions of Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 3, Article
10.6, commencing with section 65580, et seq. by December 31, 2000; and
The Planning Commission, after giving]notice as prescribed by law,held at least one
public hearing to consider General Plan Amendment No. 00-01; and
The Planning Commission finds that the General Plan Amendment is in general
conformity with the General Plan Environmental Impact Report No. 94-01 certified by the City
Council in 1996; and
Based on the environmental analysis, the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach
hereby makes the following findings;
1. In 1996, the City of Huntington Beach adopted a comprehensive General
Plan update and certified a Final Program EIR for the project.
2. The 1996 General Plan EIR concluded that Iong-term implementation of
the General Plan would reduce the majority of impacts to less than
significant levels. However, policies in the Plan would not completely
mitigate long-term, significant impacts relative to traffic, air quality and
noise.
3. The proposed 1998-2005 Housing Element will not facilitate the creation
of any additional housing units beyond those anticipated and accounted for
by current land use policy.
4. Proposed new Housing Element programs will improve the quality of
existing housing and improve access to housing for all needs groups.
5. Adoption of the 1998-2005 Housing Element will not result in any new
environmental effects, and no new mitigation measures are required.
