Introduction 1.1 Location Sunset Beach is an approximately 134 acre primarily residential community that stretches 1 2 miles from Seal Beach at the northwest extremity to Bolsa Chica State Beach, with which it is contiguous at the southeast, as shown in Exhibit 1 1, Vicinity Map It is bordered on the southwest by the Pacific Ocean and on the northeast by the Huntington Harbour and Peter's Landing developments and is in proximity to the Bolsa Chica Wetlands and Sunset Aquatic Park The entirety of Sunset Beach is located in the Coastal Zone From the ocean inland Sunset Beach is formed by six successive strips running the length of the community the beach, the ocean front residences along South Pacific Avenue, the linear park/public parking facility between South and North Pacific Avenues, the residences along North Pacific and side streets, the mixed residential-commercial buildings on both sides of Pacific Coast Highway, and the residences on Sunset Island and adjacent to Park Avenue (Exhibit 1 2, Aerial Photograph) 1.2 Specific Plan Area Background Sunset Beach was established as an unincorporated town on September 8, 1904, governed by the County of Orange Its formal establishment followed construction of the Pacific Electric Railway(PER) The Newport-Balboa line was the first PER line into Orange County and ran down the coast from Long Beach The line was extended into Huntington Beach via Seal Beach in Summer 1904 Sunset Beach was laid out along the tracks in 1905 An 80 foot wide boulevard was graded running north to south next to the "Red Car" line, the common reference to PER, and became known as Pacific Avenue The thoroughfare Sunset Drive was renamed Pacific Coast Highway in 1926 Development of Sunset Beach was similar to that of small coastal communities of the time and was punctuated by various events that helped to shape it to its current form, not the least of which was the rail line and the highway The other notable change for the area was the development of Huntington Harbour in the 1960s, which transformed marsh and slough into residential islands, a marina and commercial area Sunset Beach is unique among coastal communities in that 55 percent of its total area, excluding streets, is publicly owned and utilized Of its almost 134 acres, approximately 74 acres are devoted to public uses, which include the main beach, a combination linear park and public parking facility, Sunset Channel and 11'h Street beach Approximately 31 acres are developed with residential and commercial uses, and 28 acres are right-of-way (streets) There are 652 residential units in the community developed at a range of densities, with commercial and mixed use developments mostly along Pacific Coast Highway The community has approximately 1,300 residents While Sunset Beach is almost built out, remodeling and rebuilding of residential lots occurs on an on-going basis November 2015 Page 1 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan

development regulations and administrative procedures necessary to achieve orderly and compatible development of the area consistent with the City of Huntington Beach General Plan and Local Coastal Program The Specific Plan establishes specific zoning and site development standards for Sunset Beach generally consistent with the County of Orange Sunset Beach Specific Plan, dated September 1990 Sunset Beach was annexed to the City of Huntington Beach on August 22, 2011 After the adoption of the City of Huntington Beach Sunset Beach Specific Plan is effective, the City of Huntington Beach Sunset Beach Specific Plan will supersede the County of Orange Sunset Beach Specific Plan as the effective zoning regulations for the approximately 134 acre Sunset Beach area ' The intent of the Sunset Beach Specific Plan is to provide clear and comprehensive descriptions of land use, circulation, infrastructure and site development standards The Specific Plan is regulatory in nature and serves as zoning for the Sunset Beach area, see Exhibit 1 3, Zoning Map The Specific Plan also serves as the implementation plan for the Huntington Beach Local Coastal Program Development plans and other entitlement requests for the Specific Plan area must be consistent with this Specific Plan and the Huntington Beach General Plan and Local Coastal Program 1.4 Authority and Scope The authority to prepare, adopt and implement Specific Plans is granted to the City of Huntington Beach by the California Government Code (Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 3, Article 8, Sections 65450 through 65457) The Specific Plan will be used by the City of Huntington Beach to implement the Huntington Beach General Plan and Local Coastal Program for the Sunset Beach area The Specific Plan contains all applicable land use regulations and will thus constitute the zoning for the Sunset Beach area The Development Standards contained in this Specific Plan will take precedence over all other provisions of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance, unless otherwise noted Local planning agencies or their legislative bodies may designate areas within their jurisdictions as ones for which a Specific Plan is "necessary or convenient" (Government Code Section 65451) A Specific Plan may either be adopted by ordinance or resolution (Government Code Section 65507) Adoption of the Sunset Beach Specific Plan shall be consistent with the provisions of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance, Chapter 215 ii The County of Orange Sunset Beach Specific Plan lists the acreage for the Specific Plan area as 115 total acres,30 acres of which are the main beach With the benefit of geographic information systems, and based on current information from the County of Orange and a legal description,the total acreage is now estimated at almost 134,approximately 58 of which are the main beach November 2015 Page 4 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan I IQ ti �_ v 0 N ,u m m c 0 'cmYy,-'jr 1 V y� a f it Z W Fill f\ Wei November 2015 Page 5 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan 1.5 Previous County of Orange Approvals for Sunset Beach On March 9, 1982, the Orange County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No 82-349, authorizing preparation of a Specific Plan for Sunset Beach The Land Use Plan, including Development Guidelines, was approved by the Board of Supervisors on May 6, 1981, as an amendment to the Orange County General Plan The purpose of the County Sunset Beach Specific Plan (SBSP/LCP) was to tie together the Land Use Plan and Implementing Actions Program of the County's Local Coastal Program In January, 1986, the Board of Supervisors directed the Environmental Management Agency (EMA) to prepare an amendment to the SBSP/LCP Amendment 90-1 to the SBSP/LCP was approved by the Board of the Supervisors by Resolution No 90-1244 and Ordinance No 3798 on September 26, 1990 The Sunset Beach area remained an unincorporated "island"while the cities of Seal Beach and Huntington Beach incorporated and annexed adjoining areas In 2009, the Orange County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) placed the unincorporated Sunset Beach area in the City of Huntington Beach's Sphere of Influence, facilitating the annexation of Sunset Beach to the City of Huntington Beach This proposed City of Huntington Beach Sunset Beach Specific Plan is intended to comply with State law requiring the City to adopt zoning regulations for property ("pre-zone") before annexation is approved by LAFCO 1.6 Previous California Coastal Commission Approvals for Sunset Beach The California Coastal Commission originally certified the SBSP/LCP on October 27, 1983 Subsequently, the Commission certified the amended SBSP/LCP on July, 17, 1991 The Commission retains original permit jurisdiction over development seaward of the mean high tide line Therefore, it has permitting authority for improvements in/above the ocean and waterway and has issued such coastal development permits in Sunset Beach This City of Huntington Beach Sunset Beach Specific Plan must be approved by the California Coastal Commission in order to become effective 1.7 Consistency with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), an Initial Study has been prepared as part of the Specific Plan approval process The Initial Study will serve as the basis on which the environmental effects of implementation of the Specific Plan can be ascertained The Initial Study indicated that a Negative Declaration is the appropriate CEQA compliance tool, and has been prepared as part of this Specific Plan process All subsequent approvals necessary to develop any property within the Specific Plan area must be consistent with the Specific Plan and within the scope of the Negative Declaration November 2015 Page 6 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan Additional environmental documentation may be required in the future if new significant development is proposed or if significant changes are found to have occurred pursuant to Section 15162 and 15182 of the CEQA Guidelines November 2015 Page 7 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan 2. Land Use Plan The goal of the Land Use Plan is to maintain and enhance the special character of Sunset Beach The Land Use Plan establishes and designates areas of residential and commercial development that will not impair coastal resources or public access to the coast consistent with the previous County Specific Plan It identifies the beach, waterway and public parking facilities and policies to preserve them Preservation of the unique character of Sunset Beach is the fundamental goal from which the Land Use Policies are derived 2.1 Existing Conditions Sunset Beach is characterized by the unique and valuable commodity of its sandy beach and ocean shoreline It is also surrounded on its inland side by a system of waterway canals in the Huntington Harbour development The majority of the Sunset Beach area is designated for public or community use, the largest component of which is the oceanfront beach The beach is bounded on the south by Warner Avenue and on the north by Anderson Street, a distance of 6,300 feet Access to the shoreline is at 27 street-end locations through the residential areas, 35 feet in width, located every 200 feet along the beach frontage The only recreation facilities on the beach are volleyball nets Approximately 1,500 feet of the beach is open for surfing Lifeguard service is provided on a seasonal basis Outdoor games, swimming, surfing and fishing constitute the major activities at this beach The area also benefits from a 13 acre linear park/public parking facility, constructed by the County of Orange in the old Pacific-Electric right-of-way, with picnic areas, a tot lot, five restroom buildings, pathways, and 624 parking spaces This area is also referred to as the "greenbelt" Other notable public uses include the Sunset Channel, 11th Street beach, a post office and a volunteer fire station The Sunset Beach Community Association also owns and operates a community center, which functions as a quasi-public use There are no public boat launch sites in Sunset Channel with the exception that nontrailerable boats that can be hand-carried may be launched at the 11th Street Beach and at the sandy area opposite 17th Street There are no publicly maintained boating facilities within the Sunset Beach area However, private docks are available in Sunset Channel adjacent to commercial and residential properties subject to the permit process Private land uses in Sunset Beach are residential and commercial The residential uses consist of 652 single and multiple family type dwelling units, on typically 2,700 square foot lots, which are well mixed throughout both residential and commercial areas Densities range from approximately 22 to 45 units per acre There are approximately 70 commercial establishments Existing commercial uses range from neighborhood convenience facilities such as markets, to more area-wide facilities such as motels, restaurants, and specialty shops that generally front on Pacific Coast Highway Because of the compact size and special nature of the Sunset Beach community and the limited area for commercial uses, the convenience facilities and goods provided serve the visitors and tourists as well as local residents November 2015 Page 8 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan The Sunset Beach area consists of 497 parcels, the beach, and right-of-way All but four of these parcels are fully developed or used in substantial part by an adjacent parcel for yard area, parking or accessory structures Of the four parcels, three are vacant and one parcel is occupied by a billboard The existing residential and commercial areas are 99 percent developed Sunset Beach exhibits generally low relief with elevations ranging from sea level to five feet above sea level Much of the area northwest of Pacific Coastal Highway was once a marsh and slough and was dredged and redeveloped to establish part of Sunset Island and Huntington Harbour in the 1960s The development of these communities destroyed the marsh-slough habitat The developed area of Sunset Beach does not provide a suitable habitat for wildlife or native vegetation because of its highly urbanized character, although certain avifauna may forage on the beach Along the sandy beaches of the Specific Plan area, plankton, organic detritus, and debris form a primary food source for many of the macroscopic (i e , large enough to be observed by the naked eye) species of marine animals, such as beach hoppers, sand crabs, and various species of clams Also, microfauna could possibly be a food source for invertebrate macroscopic filter feeders Filter and deposit feeders provide a food source for many fish species such as barred surfperch and California corbina, and also for numerous shore birds such as Millets, whimbrels, dowitchers, plovers, and gulls In turn, many of the vertebrates, especially the fishes, provide a food source for larger carnivorous vertebrates such as other fishes and mammals Many invertebrate species are subject to cycles of abundance and rarity on any segment of sandy beach shoreline The fish species present are frequently taken by in-shore anglers but are not exclusively confined to the shallow water of the open coast sandy beaches, they can also be found in deeper waters, or in bays and harbors, depending on such factors as migratory habits, spawning habits, weather conditions, wave conditions, and currents Pismo clams are known to exist all along the intertidal and subtidal zones of the sandy beach shorelines from Anaheim Bay Harbor to the entrance to Newport Harbor, although they are not known to historically be present along Sunset Beach The open coast sandy beach in the Specific Plan area and vicinity are spawning habitat for the grunion Other fish species such as the barred surfperch and California corbina are found in the surf zone feeding primarily upon sand crabs Common sandy beach organisms such as sand crab, bean clam, and polychaetes are known to exist intertidally and subtidally along the Surfside-Sunset Beach shoreline in spite of periodic beach deposition (sand replenishment) operations Existing conditions on the oceanfront beach include a manmade berm (also referred to as an artificial dune), constructed by the County of Orange in 1983, in response to the January 1983 storm that caused severe flooding in Sunset Beach The berm was planted with ice plant to minimize windblown sand Previous County reports indicated that ice plant was naturalized vegetation that had grown on the beach since 1900 The berm has increased in height over the years as sand is blown inland In addition to flood protection, which is discussed in Section 2 4, November 2015 Page 9 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan the berm serves as a barrier to sand being blown from the beach onto the streets and provides a consistent sand feature that beachgoers see when looking inland 2.2 Land Use The Sunset Beach Land Use Plan is intended to implement the goals of the City of Huntington Beach General Plan and Local Coastal Program Broadly stated, the goals for the area are to ■ Maintain and enhance the special character of Sunset Beach ■ Protect, maintain, and, where feasible, enhance and restore the overall quality of the coastal zone environment and its natural and man-made resources ■ Assure orderly, balanced utilization and conservation of coastal zone resources taking into account the social economic needs of the people of the state e Maximize public access to and along the coast and maximize public recreational opportunities in the coastal zone consistent with sound resource conservation principles and constitutionally protected rights of private property owners ■ Assure priority for coastal-dependent and coastal-related development over other development on the coast ■ Encourage state and local initiatives and cooperation in preparing procedures to implement coordinated planning and development for mutually beneficial uses, including educational uses, in the coastal zone More specifically, the City of Huntington Beach Sunset Beach Land Use Plan proposes to carry forward the land use designations previously approved by the County of Orange and California Coastal Commission However, for consistency with the City's General Plan, some of the designations are different in name, though the types of permitted uses are similar These uses will also be governed by the more specific regulations of this Specific Plan, as set forth in Section 3 The Sunset Beach Land Use Plan is illustrated in Exhibit 2 1 The Plan designates the 134 acre Specific Plan area as follows Land Use Desrcinatron Acres Residential High Density-30 2232 Commercial Visitor-Mixed Use Overlay 916 Public 1300 Open Space-Shoreline 5774 Open Space-Water Recreation 340 Right of Way 2826 Total 13388 November 2015 Page 10 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan The Residential High Density designation has a General Plan/Local Coastal Program density category of greater than 30 units per net acre, denoted by"-30"to reflect the existing density condition of some parts of Sunset Beach The Commercial Visitor designation has a Mixed Use ("-mu") Overlay, which permits residential uses in conjunction with the underlying commercial designation This is in recognition that the Specific Plan allows for residential units above the ground floor in the CV area 2 In addition to the underlying land use designations, and the notations for RH and CV described above, the entire area has a Specific Plan Overlay ('-sp") designation in recognition of the need and existence of a specific plan for the Sunset Beach area The City of Huntington Beach General Plan and Local Coastal Program also use Subarea designations to identify areas that are unique in the city, serve certain functions or have area- specific goals or regulations The Sunset Beach Specific Plan area will be designated as Subarea 4L on the City's Community District and Subarea Schedule in the General Plan and Local Coastal Program Those Subarea Schedules refer the reader to this Specific Plan for development regulations z The County's existing Specific Plan allows residential uses above the ground floor in the Commercial Visitor(Sunset Beach Tourist District)area A 2010 review of existing development in Sunset Beach indicates that there are approximately 55 residential units in the areas designated for principally commercial uses November 2015 Page 11 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan IM C U) - _ x _ J L1J _ _ y JIM � L v l . November 2015 Page 12 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan Land Use Plan Guidelines The City's General Plan and Local Coastal Program contain numerous goals, objectives and policies that further and are consistent with the overall goals for the Sunset Beach area However, due to the unique nature of Sunset Beach and the fact that it is already almost fully developed at the time that this Specific Plan is being created, previous Land Use Plan Guidelines contained in the original County of Orange Sunset Beach Specific Plan are being carried forward to the extent that they are still relevant The Land Use Plan Guidelines below are designed to implement the Land Use Plan, specifically, carry out the intent of the General Plan and Coastal Act consistent with the desires of the community, and be a supplement to the City's General Plan and Local Coastal Program, which also contain relevant policies The Guidelines consist of the Land Use Map (see Exhibit 2 1) and the following text Beach and Sand Area 2 2 1 Existing beach and sand areas shall be maintained i to preserve the unique public recreational character of Sunset Beach, recreation shall be defined as passive and active recreation that is in conformance with the development guidelines of the Sunset Beach Land Use Plan ii in cooperation with the State Department of Fish and Wildlife, to protect and preserve the natural habitat of spawning grunion, pismo clam and other shellfish beds, porpoise feeding and sporting grounds, feeding grounds for the California brown pelican, grebes, cormorants, terns, gulls and all other natural sea life and waterfowl III to protect beachfront residences and maintain both public and private open ocean view and access 222 The following shall be adhered to to maintain the existing beach and sand areas i The City shall encourage dredging and sand replenishment activities be scheduled during fall and winter months to reduce conflict with sunning, swimming and other shoreline water activities, as well as grunion spawning ii The City shall cooperate with the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE) and other applicable agencies regarding all sand replenishment activities III The City will continue to advocate to the USACOE that sand replenishment shall be deposited at the northwest end of the beach (in Seal Beach) in the area contiguous to the U S Navy Ammunition & Net Depot harbor groin, the point of primary and maximum erosion From that point sand is distributed southeastward down the beach by natural wave and current action This avoids the destruction of natural marine life habitat At the same time it preserves the recreational character of the beach and the fine grain and cleanliness characteristic of alluvial ocean November 2015 Page 13 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan sands Sand shall not be pumped directly on the beach within Sunset Beach except in response to immediate danger to residences IV No government or private agency shall construct or cause to be constructed any structure including but not limited to jetties, groins, berms, etc , that may alter natural shoreline processes such as wave action, channel depths or general beach configuration except when such protective structures are required for existing structures or public beaches in danger of erosion v If necessary, a seasonal, temporary berm may be constructed during storm season to minimize erosion and flooding impacts vi If a protective structure is deemed necessary to protect existing development, site and design of such protective device shall be as far landward as possible "Existing development"for purposes of this policy shall consist only of a principle structure, e g residential dwelling, required garage, or second residential unit, and shall not include accessory or ancillary structures such as decks, patios, pools, tennis courts, cabanas, stairs, landscaping, etc No shoreline protective device shall be allowed for the sole purpose of protecting an accessory structure vii No development shall be permitted that would result in permanent loss of sandy beach area vill To fulfill visitor serving needs, to minimize personal injuries and to reduce liability, sanitation shall be maintained by properly and routinely cleaning and maintaining the beach and sand area from ocean edge to the berm (artificial dune) pursuant to a Beach Management Program The protective growth barrier shall be maintained by adjacent property owners 2 2 3 To protect residences and the Sunset Beach sanitary system from flood waters and excess wind-driven sand, to preserve that sand in the beach area thereby reducing replenishment costs, and to enhance the appearance for the benefit of visitors, preservation and maintenance of the artificial dune shall be retained and encouraged 224 Scenic vistas shall be maintained, see Exhibit 2 2 , Scenic Vista Viewpoints 225 Public access to the beach shall be maintained i The 27 existing public access points to the beach shall be retained in perpetuity, see Exhibit 2 3, Existing Beach Access ii Public recreation and access opportunities at public beaches and parks shall be protected, and where feasible, enhanced as an important coastal resource III All beach amenities available to the general public on the City's public beaches shall be available to all members of the general public on an equal basis IV Public beaches and parks shall maintain lower-cost user fees and maximize hours of use to the extent feasible, in order to maximize public access and recreation November 2015 Page 14 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan opportunities Limitations on time of use or increases in user fees or parking fees shall be subject to coastal development permit requirements in accordance with Chapter 245 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance v Signs denoting the Public Beach shall be maintained at the signalized intersections of Anderson Street, Broadway Avenue and Warner Avenue along Pacific Coast Highway Signs shall not exceed four square feet vi Signs that limit public access or recreation are not permitted except in instances where such signage is necessary to implement restriction to protect public safety where no other feasible alternative exists to provide public safety, and shall be reviewed in conjunction with the coastal development permit for said restrictions November 2015 Page 15 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan =� tP a` m Jff^pG�� t f6mpeag 1J f� N o 7, _--- o IG - a - i�M�W'' In pb 1,acu L Hl C Y q1i 1 - IL FJ cu Do- 13 ca N

only if the building meets the Specific Plan standards 22 15 Public service facilities shall be a permitted use in a residential use area 22 16 Short-term vacation rentals consistent with the Specific Plan and compatible with the community are supported to encourage lower cost overnight accommodations 2.3 Circulation Regional Transportation A network of freeways and arterial highways provide regional access for Sunset Beach The major arterial regional facilities serving the community are Pacific Coast Highway and the San Diego Freeway Arterial highways link these two facilities to each other and to Sunset Beach Several arterial highways connect Pacific Coast Highway with inland areas and the San Diego Freeway Seal Beach Boulevard and Warner Avenue are both designated as major arterial (six lane, divided) highways and provide connections with Pacific Coast Highway at points north and south, respectively, of Sunset Beach The arterial highway network serves both the motorist and the public transit rider Countywide and regional access via transit is designed primarily by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), which operates an extensive system of fixed routes and dial-a-ride service throughout Orange County OCTA's service to the Sunset Beach area is quite extensive OCTA route#1 utilizes Pacific Coast Highway between Long Beach/Seal Beach and San Clemente, providing north-south service to Sunset Beach Three other OCTA routes terminate at Pacific Coast Highway and Warner Avenue at the southern end of Sunset Beach, they provide direct service to the beach from inland Orange County areas The Pacific Coast Bikeway follows Pacific Coast Highway and serves as a major north-south route within Orange County and the only bikeway adjacent and parallel to the coastline Bikeways connecting to Pacific Coast Highway generally follow arterial highways Seal Beach Boulevard and Warner Avenue both include bikeways All of the above bikeways are included in the Master Plan of County-wide Bikeways November 2015 Page 19 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan Sunset Beach Transportation Most of the traffic utilizing Pacific Coast Highway in the vicinity of Sunset Beach is either passing through the area or destined to development adjacent to the community The approximately 652 dwelling units and various commercial enterprises within Sunset Beach generate a relatively small portion of the trips using the Highway For most of its length in the vicinity of Sunset Beach, Pacific Coast Highway is a four lane facility with painted median Some additional development and redevelopment within Sunset Beach may occur, but the impact of this upon the arterial highway system should be minimal However, increased development in the areas surrounding Sunset Beach and growing demand for access to coastal resources could further impact Pacific Coast Highway and the arterials leading to it Because of the constraints inherent in acquiring additional right-of-way for Pacific Coast Highway both within and outside of Sunset Beach, it may be impractical to provide additional travel lanes Better utilization of the existing right-of-way is a more realistic possibility As new development and redevelopment occurs, improvements can be made that provide for safe and convenient use of the Highway by pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit vehicles Also, any new commercial development will have to provide off-street parking and be designed to minimize the number of direct access points to Pacific Coast Highway An integrated traffic signal system within Sunset Beach can facilitate the flow of traffic Expanded transit service along Pacific Coast Highway and through the area, to be provided as demand warrants and as financial resources become available, should encourage additional transit use and might somewhat reduce traffic along Pacific Coast Highway Pacific Coast Highway is operated and maintained by the State Department of Transportation (CalTrans) Thus, any improvement to the Highway is subject to their approval Local circulation within the Sunset Beach community is tied to parking opportunities and traffic control Traffic patterns seaward of Pacific Coast Highway revolve around the parking facility located between North and South Pacific Avenues Traffic movements on other streets are limited by narrow right-of-way and heavy on-street parking Although there are adequate parking spaces available to meet public, commercial, and residential parking demand, the distribution of available parking negatively affects the supply- demand balance, which causes deficiencies to occur in certain areas To alleviate the problem, existing parking opportunities need to be retained within the community and maximized wherever possible Adequate off-street parking will be required in conjunction with all new development or redevelopment of properties Specific policies and guidelines relating to parking are included in this Specific Plan Increased transit service and bicycling opportunities should provide access to beach uses without requiring such additional parking Local circulation and traffic safety will be enhanced by appropriate speed limits It is expected that the existing 15 miles per hour speed limit on all Sunset Beach Streets, except Pacific Coast Highway, will be retained, however, speed limits must be periodically reviewed to be enforceable Circulation and safety will also be enhanced by retention of the parking restrictions on North and South Pacific Avenues Also, conversion of Bay View Drive to one-way operations will be evaluated as a means to improve circulation inland of Pacific Coast Highway November 2015 Page 20 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan Based on the foregoing, the following circulation policies shall be adhered to Transportation/Circulation 2 3 1 Speed limits shall be periodically reviewed and vigorously enforced on all local streets within Sunset Beach 2 3 2 The City shall work with CalTrans to maintain and/or improve signal timing on Pacific Coast Highway 2 3 3 The feasibility of converting local streets to one-way circulation shall be evaluated 234 Required street and highway dedication and improvements normally required per the City Code are not applicable to the Sunset Beach Specific Plan area except for those properties abutting Pacific Coast Highway However, street dedication for 4th through 26th Streets shall conform to the Typical Section for those streets, as shown in Exhibit 2 4, Typical Section 2 3 5 Pacific Coast Highway is designated a"scenic highway" To ensure that those scenic characteristics are enhanced, public and private projects shall, wherever feasible, provide landscaping wherever there is adequate space 2 3 6 Non-automobile circulation shall be preserved and enhanced where feasible This shall include consideration of improvement for pedestrians and bicyclists, as well as transit along Pacific Coast Highway November 2015 Page 21 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan Parking 237 To the maximum extent feasible, to maximize visitor servicing needs and ensure public safety, the City shall encourage CalTrans to stripe Pacific Coast Highway to provide a safe width for parallel parking 238 All existing on-street parking shall be retained within Sunset Beach and wherever possible establish programs to maximize their use, except when public safety is compromised 239 There shall be no parking on North and South Pacific Avenues, except in front of driveways by permit only 2310 In order to facilitate visitor serving needs, diagonal parking shall be allowed on Anderson Street and Broadway Avenue 2311 All street ends, except for emergency access, opening onto the beach shall be fully developed for public parking prior to any other public parking development 2312 Street ends on the inland side of Pacific Coast Highway will be evaluated for opportunities to develop public parking 2313 Innovative programs to maintain the existing parking supply in residential areas and to provide flexibility for commercial uses shall be encouraged 2314 Signage and parking control to manage parking supply shall be implemented November 2015 Page 22 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan N� C7 z Cl- CD 0 w U ryLn }� M N (a U EL L X W 0 _w g� w 2 to November 2015 Page 23 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan 2.4 Shoreline Management, Flooding, and Sea Level Rise Shoreline Management Sunset Beach is part of the Huntington Beach Littoral Cell, which extends 15 miles from the east jetty of Anaheim Bay to the west jetty of Newport Bay The City of Seal Beach built a groin at the north entrance to Anaheim Bay to combat beach erosion in 1936 In 1944, the Department of the Navy extended the groin to form the upcoast entrance jetty of Anaheim Bay Erosion of the shoreline in the Sunset Beach area has been relatively continuous since then as ocean current drives sediment generally to the southeast In the 1940s, 1,422,000 cubic yards of sand replenishment material were placed on the beach in Seal Beach for the purpose of addressing the beach erosion Due to a local appeal to the U S Congress to address the erosion caused by the federal structures and a recommendation by the U S Army Corps of Engineers, in 1962 the U S Congress approved House Document 602 that allows for federal appropriation for beach nourishment to occur, although each nourishment project is a separate Congressional appropriation This action also established a roughly 67%/33% split between the federal government and non-federal entities to pay for the beach nourishment The non-federal entities are the State of California, County of Orange, City of Huntington Beach, City of Newport Beach, City of Seal Beach and the Surfside Colony Homeowners Association Since the Congressional action, the U S Army Corps of Engineers, which is the federal sponsor and manages the contractors for the beach nourishment projects, has completed a sand deposition project (Surfside-Sunset Beach nourishment project)for the area approximately every five to seven years The draft Orange County Coastal Regional Sediment Management Plan states that these projects have provided substantial increases in beach width over time for the entire Huntington Beach Littoral Cell The Plan identifies the Surfside-Sunset Beach location as a "high" need receiver site and notes the benefits associated with periodic sand replenishment These benefits extend beyond recreational opportunities for the immediate Surfside and Sunset Beach areas The Plan states that the downcoast benefits for recreation at Huntington City Beach and Huntington State Beach are substantial, and that maintaining a wide beach can reduce storm damage 3 The draft Orange County Coastal Regional Sediment Management Plan recommends continued support for the Surfside-Sunset Beach nourishment project, and Land Use Plan Guidelines 2 2 2 ii and 2 2 2 111 of this Specific Plan echo this support Flooding The Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA) currently designates all of the developed area of Sunset Beach and a majority of the beach as Flood Zone X, which are areas of 500 year flood and areas of 100 year flood with average depths of less than one foot of flooding and 3 Draft Orange County Coastal Regional Sediment Management Plan,April 2012,prepared for U S Army Corps of Engineers,County of Orange and California Coastal Sediment Management Workgroup November 2015 Page 24 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan areas protected by levees from 100 year flood A small portion of the beach at the ocean edge is designated Flood Zone VE, areas of Coastal flood with velocity hazard Despite the Flood Zone X designation, flood damage in Sunset Beach can occur at times of abnormally high tides A January 1983 storm caused severe flooding across the beach that affected homes along South Pacific Avenue as well as flooding onto Pacific Coast Highway and all of the property in between In response, the County of Orange constructed a berm (also referred to as the artificial dune), which still exists today The berm was constructed approximately 40 feet from the rear property lines along South Pacific Avenue, which maximizes having a large expanse of uninterrupted beach area while still achieving the objective of flood protection Since the berm was installed there has been no flooding as a result of storm surge or high tides from the ocean side of the beach As a follow-up action to the storm, the County of Orange completed a Coastal Flood Plain Development Study, in 1985, to analyze safety measures for structures along the coast Design guidelines for residential development along the coast are established in Chapter Four of the Coastal Flood Plain Development Study These guidelines are based on the assumption that the beach will be artificially maintained with a width of at least 150 feet from the ocean-facing private property line The Study concluded that should the beach retreat to less width, the possibility of storm erosion and breaking wave activity at the structures may occur and flood protection as regulated by the design guidelines will not provide protection from wave impact forces Revised design guidelines must then be modified to reflect the circumstances The County designated the homes seaward of South Pacific Avenue as being in a—FP3 district, subject to flood hazard The Coastal Flood Plain Development Study requires that any new structure in this area be raised to a specific height above a point on South Pacific Avenue In addition to providing protection against flood damage, the requirement to build on piling along South Pacific Avenue provides a safety margin should conditions at Sunset Beach return to the way they were in the 1930s when homes were vulnerable to attack by waves Homes on shallow footings can be rapidly damaged or destroyed if their sand support is lost to erosion Existing lawful nonconforming residential uses may be severely impacted by the Coastal Flood Plain Development Study and will require special consideration Although the berm/artificial dune that the County constructed has been very effective, approximately 12 to15 years ago the County of Orange implemented another maintenance activity to construct a temporary, seasonal berm, referred to as the seawardmost berm or the seasonal berm on Sunset Beach This was in response to flooding that occurred down Anderson Street and onto Pacific Coast Highway and the surrounding area The flooding resulted from water that came up against a seasonal berm in front of the Surfside Colony development immediately to the north in the City of Seal Beach being funneled into the Sunset Beach community streets (The Surfside Colony berm has been constructed on a seasonal basis for approximately 30 years ) The Sunset Beach seawardmost berm is a non-structural management tool used on a seasonal basis to help minimize the risk of coastal flooding Even with the recurring sand replenishment project, there are times when the beach has narrowed due to storm activity and the November 2015 Page 25 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan seawardmost berm reduces the risk of flooding associated with that as well as eliminates the previous reason that the flooding down Anderson Street originally occurred Under management by the County of Orange, the width of the beach was evaluated before every storm season If the width of the beach was less than 250 feet, the County constructed the berm Typically after a beach nourishment project was completed, the seawardmost berm was not needed Conversely, in an El Nino year, the berm would be reconstructed regardless of the width of the beach The County's former and the City's current practice is to reconstruct the berm between mid-November and December 1s' and take it down after the storm season in mid- to late March, depending on the storm season and tides The publicly owned Sunset Channel has been privately bulkheaded and the streets and alleys, where they abut the channel, were bulkheaded by the County There are a couple of areas that are not bulkheaded, e g undeveloped property at terminus of Park Avenue and two properties on Bayview Drive (16862 and 16864 Bayview Drive), that result in flooding of local streets during high tides With the combination of shoreline management and flood protection maintenance activities, flood threat to the entire Sunset Beach community and Pacific Coast Highway has been significantly minimized However, inland flooding does occur due to the lack of bulkheads in some areas Based on the foregoing, the following shoreline management and flooding policies, coupled with those identified in the Land Use Plan section, shall be adhered to Shoreline Management 2 4 1 The City shall prepare a Shoreline Management (Beach Management) Plan for Sunset Beach, which shall take into consideration beach nourishment, beach erosion, storm season, beach habitat and grunion spawning season and recreational use of the beach Flooding 2 4 2 New development shall be required to comply with flood plain regulations and the 1985 County study, until such time that it is superseded, as required by Section 3 3 8 of this Specific Plan Sea Level Rise (SLR) The potential impacts of SLR are within the planning and regulatory responsibilities of the Coastal Commission and the City under the Coastal Act The City is in the process of completing a comprehensive update to its General Plan This effort includes the preparation of a citywide SLR Vulnerability Assessment and Coastal Resiliency Plan The SLR Vulnerability Assessment will guide the strategies (policies and implementation actions) that the City could ultimately adopt The City is proposing to address SLR citywide by including policies in the Coastal Element and changing the implementing ordinances if necessary, including the citywide floodplain ordinance This approach will result in a centralized location for SLR policies and regulations, allow a comprehensive approach in addressing SLR, and build upon existing provisions in the City's certified Local Coastal Program November 2015 Page 26 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan Pending completion of the citywide approach to SLR and in order to comply with Coastal Act Section 30253, projects in Sunset Beach will need to be planned, located, designed, and engineered for SLR and associated impacts that might occur over the life of the development Locations currently subject to inundation, flooding, wave impacts, erosion, or saltwater intrusion will be exposed to increased risks from these coastal hazards with rising sea level and will require review for SLR effects 243 Within five years of certification of the Sunset Beach Specific Plan, the City shall address SLR citywide through preparation of a Sea Level Rise Vulnerability Assessment and Coastal Resiliency Plan, which shall identify the vulnerable assets and recommend adaptive measures and preparedness goals for each planning area, including Sunset Beach The SLR Vulnerability Assessment and Coastal Resiliency Plan shall be prepared in accordance with the California Coastal Commission's adopted SLR Policy Guidance document 244 Applicants proposing development on vacant land in Sunset Beach shall comply with the following steps for addressing SLR in coastal development permits as outlined in the Coastal Commission's adopted SLR Policy Guidance 1 Establish the projected SLR range for the proposed project, 2 Determine how SLR impacts may constrain the project site, 3 Determine how the project may impact coastal resources over time, considering SLR, 4 Identify project alternatives to both avoid resource impacts and minimize risks to the project, and 5 Finalize project design and submit permit application 2.5 Infrastructure and Utilities Infrastructure Public facilities analyses of infrastructure requirements and detailed design, construction and phasing will be completed as required by the City of Huntington Beach Department of Public Works Future development within the Specific Plan area will be responsible for the construction of public facilities improvements concurrent with individual project development, subject to review and approval of the Director of Public Works Water System The City of Huntington Beach has provided domestic water to the Sunset Beach area since fiscal year 1964/65, when it purchased the Sunset Beach Water District Upon annexation, domestic water for the Sunset Beach area will continue to be provided by the Public Works Water Division of the City of Huntington Beach The Water Division provides water to all of the customers within the City of Huntington Beach November 2015 Page 27 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan The Water Division has use of both underground and imported water sources to service the area The underground supply comes from nine existing wells, and imported water delivered to the City of Huntington Beach by the Metropolitan Water District(MWD) at three locations The Specific Plan area is part of the City's Master Plan for Water Service All water improvements shall be designed to the City of Huntington Beach water standards for future City acceptance and approval Locations of fire hydrants and apparatuses will be reviewed for each project by the Fire Department and Water Division of the City of Huntington Beach to ensure adequate fire flow and pressure Sewer System The Sunset Beach Sanitary District, formed in 1930, is responsible for the review and approval of the collection of wastewater within the project area, and the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) is responsible for the treatment of wastewater Upon annexation, wastewater service will continue to be provided by the Sunset Beach Sanitary District Storm Drainage The City of Huntington Beach and the Orange County Public Works/Flood Control Section are the agencies responsible for the flood control system in the vicinity of Sunset Beach New drainage facilities constructed within the Specific Plan area will be maintained either by the City or privately maintained by a homeowner's association Any drainage facilities designed or sized to accommodate upstream drainage will be designated as public facilities and maintained by the City Only drainage that is required by City of Huntington Beach Codes and the ordinances of the Sunset Beach Sanitary District shall be drained into the Sunset Beach Sanitary System lines All other drainage, such as rain water, irrigation water and other on-site drainage shall dram to the public street or public storm drainage system All development shall meet the provisions of this requirement Where new storm drains are necessary to accommodate development, they shall be sited and designed to discharge in the least environmentally sensitive location Storm Drains and/or Catch Basins shall be marked "No dumping-drains to Ocean" or with other appropriate local insignia Water Quality The City of Huntington Beach is a coastal community noted for its beaches, which attract numerous people to the area The beaches support the City's economy and the well being of the City's economy is dependent on maintaining quality of coastal waters The flow of untreated stormwater and urban runoff can have an adverse impact on the quality of coastal waters since storm drains eventually discharge into the ocean Water pollution degrades surface waters making them unsafe for drinking, fishing and swimming The 1972 amendments to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act prohibit the discharge of any pollutant to navigable waters unless the discharge is authorized by a National Pollutant Discharge November 2015 Page 28 Draft Sunset Beach Specific Plan Elimination System (NPDES) permit Since 1990, the City of Huntington Beach has been required to develop and implement a storm water management program designed to prevent harmful pollutants from being washed by storm water runoff into the storm drain system and to obtain a NPDES permit The City's NPDES Permit requires new development and significant redevelopment to minimize short and long-term impacts on receiving water quality to the maximum extent practicable The City's General Plan and Local Coastal Program note that the City can upgrade water quality by controlling pollutants that enter coastal waters through urban runoff The City's General Plan and Local Coastal Program contain the water and marine resource policies requiring that measures be implemented to mitigate the adverse impacts of human activities on the marine environment To protect coastal waters, the following water quality measures shall be implemented in conjunction with any new development or significant redevelopment ■ All new development and significant redevelopment, shall comply with the State of California, California Regional Water Quality Control Board Santa Ana Region, Order No R8-2009-0030 (NPDES No CAS 618030) or subsequent permits Projects shall comply with the Orange County Drainage Area Management Plan (DAMP), all
