As you know, I have been appointed by Supervisor Harriet Wieder to the Orange County Planning Commission. I would like to thank you for allowing me the opportunity to serve as a Planning Commissioner for this past year. The experience and knowledge I have gained are invaluable and greatly appreciated.

Ree Mayor Public Irrforma'tion Officer Subject PLANNING COMMISSION MEETINGS Date May 11 , 1.989 s . r It has been several months now since the elections and some acrimony which ensued from the campaign concerning the i Planning Commission. Of late, I have heard one or two Councilmembers Euggest that F the Planning Commission meetings should not be telecast. Since it is up to the City Council as to whether or not there meetings are shown through cable television, it would be. helpful if., at this relatively quiet time politically, the Council would make a redetermination as to whether or not the Planning Commission meetings should be televised.

Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and City Council 0 Submitted by: Paul Cook, City Administrator I Prepared by: Mike Adams, Acting Director, Community Devel ent Subject: LAM USE ENFORCE[IENT PRJGRAM, STAFFING AND CITATION POWER FOR CODE ENFORCMENT PERSONNEL '+.P1+ROyED BY CITY COUNCIL 19�� Consistent with Council Policy? [ j Yes [ I New Policy or Exceptivor � � . Statement of Issue, Recommendation,Analysis, Funding Source,Alternative Actions,-Ai- U:2?,_1--Lr. STATMNT OF Is6:,`w: Transmitted for the Council's consideration: is a request by the Department of Community Development to provide the Land Use staff with citation power for the purpose of enforcing zoning and municipal code violations. RECQ= r© : . 1. Direct the City Attorney and Department of Community Development to prepare an Ordinance granting citation power to Land Use staff for zoning and municipal code violations. 2. Direct staff to schedule a public hearing on this item for the February 21, 1989 City Council meeting. ANALYSIS: A need exists within the City of Huntington Beach to increase the level of service provided by the Land Use Code Enforcement Section of the Department of Community Development. Current staff level is far below those of similar sized communities within Orange County. Anaheim presently his 16 code enforcement officers, Santa Ana has 26 and Garden Grove has 8. As of January 30, 1989 the City of Huntington peach has 4 code enforcement officers and one student intern. Due to the constraints of present: staffing, code enforcement has br, A ted to complaint responses and has not been able to target sF ireas of concern within the community as other cities are do. The Land Use staff is approximately three weeks behind ... aeir investigation of land use violations. As a result of the aforementioned, the Department of Community Development will be requesting additional staff as part: of the 1989/1990 fiscal budget to provide a better response time for citizen complaints and concentrate on target areas of the community as established by the City Council. P10 SIC9 ;. r Citizen complaints continue to increase overall. A high of 144 complaints were received by the Department of Community. Development in July, 1988 and a low of 69 in December 1988. The annual average for 1988 was 108. The average time spent resolving each complaint is approximately 4.5 hours. This time includes verification of violation, secretarial time, telephone communication with violator and re-check of the property. This average does not include preparation of a request for prosecution, compliance hearings (if necessary) and time expended by the City Attorney's office. In an effort to analyze this issue to a greater degree, the City's Planning Commission formed a special committee to r:sview the present procedures and make recommendations for expanded service. In it's final report on Code Enforceinent, the Ad Hoc Community Preservation committee recommended that citation power be given to the senior code enforcement staff. Staff is preparing an Ordinance for Council consideration at the meeting of February 21, 1989 for authorization to issue citations on zoning and municipal code violations. Prior to the delegation of this authority, the code enforcement: officer must complete a class as required pursuant to Penal Code Sea. 832, governing laws of arrest, search and seizure. The City Attorney's office has also supported this authority. In a January 20, 1988 memorandum to Jim Silva, past chairman of the Committee for Community Preservation, City Attorney, Gail Hutton, supported the use of citation power if used "intelligently, discretely and in selected types of cases" . The City Attorney also states that if citation powers are granted, the following items also be implemented: 1. Change current misdemeanor violations to infractions for A) parking on lawns HHOC 5 9110.10, a) illegally parked vehicles -- various code sections, C) portable signs HHOC § 9610.4 (m) & W . 2. Provide a citation power -- Penal Code § 853. 6 to Senior Land Use Investigators. 3. Senior Land Use Investigators shall receive peace officer training before issuing citations pursuant to Penal Code § 832. 4. All issued citations shall be forwarded to the City Attorney for review and approval. 5. Citations will be filed with the court through the Police Department process. The Community Development staff supports Ms. Hutton's recommendations on citation power for many reasons i,.cluding; 1) decreased compliance time for serious land use violations, 2) savings to the taxpayer due to more efficient system. 3) will freu-up - icy Attorney personnel to concentrate on more serious legal matters.

The survey (attached) indicated that the stipend paid to Huntington Beach Planning Com- missioner's is substantially lower than stipends paid to Planning Commission's in other Orange County Cities. The amount presently paid to the Planning Commission -- $15. 00 per member per meeting for no more than three (3) meetings per month - was established through the adoption of City Council Resolution No. 3254 on Decem- ber 7, 1970. The stipend paid to the Planning Commission has been $15.00 per meeting since 1961. The Planning Commission is requesting that their stipend be in- creased to an amount generally equivalent to other Orange County Cities. ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS: The proposal is exempt from environmental review. FUNDING SOURCE: Funds necessary to increase the Planning Commission's stipend would be allocated from the unappropriated fund balance of the general fund. The maximum amount expended during a full fiscal, year if the stipend is increased as proposed, would be $7,700.00 ALTERNATIVE ACTION: Revise or deny the Planning Commission's request.

Thompson, City Administrat���``� . i Prepared by: James W. Palin, Director of Development Services to e j ! Subject: CITY COUNCIL'S REQUEST FOR ALTERNATIVE METHODS OF ., [P�POINTMENT�O FOR gc0aeur SIO�"`Zar.,�'� /aro-N,,t"`" v,/' SCE' � Stntement of Issue, Recommendation,Analysis, FunJing Source,Alternativc Actions,Attachments: I STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The City Council directive at its June 7, 1902 meeting that staff prepare .information on alternative methods of appointment of Planning Commissioners. RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommends that the City Council instruct staff to prepare an ordinance to be brought back at your next regular meeting. Said ordinance should provide for appointments of Planning Commissioners under Article 900, Exhibit C (attached) , which would provide that Cotr.- missioners be appointed by the mayor with consent of the majority of the Council, stipulate that the present Commissioners' terms shall continue to run concurrently with the existing Council terms, provide for four--year term thereafter for new Commissioners, require a majority vote of the City Council for removal of a Commissioner from office, and provide for filling of vacancies in essentially the same manner as an original appointment. ANALYSIS: At its June 7, 1982 meeting the Council directed staff to research methods of appointment for Planning Commissioners and make a recommenda- tion to the Council-of an alternative appointment procedure. The current Article 900, The Establishment of a Planning Commission, was revised in October of 1979 to allow each member of the City Council to appoint one member of the Planning Commission for a term of four years running concurrently with the appointing Council member's elected term of office. This procedure is spelled out in Article 900 in Attachment A. The ordinance underwent three separate ordinance changes to bring it to its present form. There have been in the past a number of methods for appointment which the Council may wish to explore, one of which was adopted a number of years ago and contains the provisions in attached Exhibit C. Section 9003.1 of that ordinance provided for the mayor with the consent of P10 4/81 Appointment of Commissioners June 11, 1982 Page 2 the majority of the Council to appoint the Planning Commissioners for a four-year term. This provision afforded a staggering of the appointments every two years to assure continuity on the Planning Commission. The Council also requested that the staff analyze a provision to "grandfather" the existing Commission members in their present posi- tions. An ordinance could be worded to allow the Commissioners to retain their present appointments with terms to expire concurrently with the terms of the Council member who originally appointed them. This would mean that there would be three Commissioners to be appointed on July 1, 1984, and four to be appointed on July 1, 1986. This would allow for continuance of our existing Commission with reasonable continuity in the future, with three and four Commissioners to be appointed in alternate election years. The ordinance could also be structured to allow interim vacancit,.s resulting from tr:, resignation of a Commissioner to be filled in essentially the same manner as an original appointment, with the end of the new appointee's term to be the same date as the Commissioner he or she replaces. Removal of a Commissioner should require a majority vote of the City Council. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. The City Council ,could establish more specific qualifications for Planning Commission membership. Under such requirements, each Councilmember could nominate a prospective member to be voted on by the Council with a majority vote required for approval and appointment. 2. The Council may choose. to leave the appointment of Planning Com- miasioners as it appears in the present ordinance, or instruct staff to prepare an ordinance implementing some other method of appcint- meat which could take into consideration both past and present ordinances or any combination thereof.

As you know, my position as Citizen Participation Coordinator for,the Orange County Transportation Commission has made it difficult for me to attend a number of recent Planning Com- mission meetings. It has always' been important to me as a Commissioner to attend all Commission meetings as well as be available for discussions with citizens, applicants or de- velopers whenever the need arose. It is no longer possible for me to make that type of commitment. It has been an honor to serve with my fellow Commission members. .. i They spend a great deal of time in this voluntary activity and they are to be congratulated for their effort.

I realize that the formation of your new business has really put a strain on your time. As of February Ilth, I posted .with the City Clerk's office a notice that a vacancy was going to ' occur, as per the Maddy Act. It requires ld working days before '• a new appointee may take a position ,as Planning Commissioner. Therefore, I'm requesting your attendance at the next Planning Commission meeting of March 2, 1982, and on the 15th of March I will officially accepts your resignation and appoint a new Planning Commissioner to take your seat on March 16, 1982. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for all your time and hard work that you devoted serving as my Planning Commissioner with the City.

I do have serious problems with "negatives". As we discussed last night, with the formation of the "new" business my tithe is severly curtailed. As you are most aware, the position of planning commissioner does, if properly done, also takes a lot of.time. I am concerned that the two positions and jobs are beginning to conflict, and that is not a good situation for either the city or for my business. I wanted to resign a while back, but felt that it would be letting both you attd the city (ego?j down, so I dropped the idea. Now it is pressing again and I cannot ignore It any longer. Ror., I am sorry that I have to offer you my resignation from the planning commission. I do not want to put you in any bind, however, so will not formally resign until you have selected a replacement, artless you would prefer that I do it now. i leave that derision to you, so please let me know. When you do decide, either way, this letter can serve as my formal resignatio►,, or I can write one specifically for that purpose.

Sangster Deputy City Attorney Subject Planning Commission Ordinance Date September 6, 1979 The attached draft Planning; Commission Ordinance incorporates the views of the Councilmembers expressed at the September 4 meeting. It changes the prior draft by (1) eliminating the requirement that candidates be interviewed before the City Council; (2) increasing the term to four years and (3) providing that the term of a Planning Commissioner ceases 90 days after the appointing Councilmember prematurely vacates office. Other changes .are cosmetic to accommodate to the four year term and we have commenced the terms of Planning Commissioners on July 1, which is roughly 90 days after the election. No change is made in the existing provisions relating to vacancies, which read as follows: 9003.1 Appointment. Each member of the City Council shall appoint one member to the Planning, Commission. 9005.3 Vacancies. ~Vacancies in the Planning Commission shall be filled by appointment by the City Council member or his successor, who made the appointment which is vacated. Under Ordinance No. 2387, effective September 5, 1979, the former provisions relating to appointment and term of Planning Commissioners were repealed, and the new language provided for appointment by each member of the Council of Planning Commissioners who serve at the pleasure of the appointing Councilmembers. The attached draft provides that whatever persons are appointed under Ordinance No. 2387 continue to serve under the new terms. i { ROHER TT C.

Honorable Mayor and City Councilpersons, The Executive Board of the HOME Council of Huntington Beach voted at their July 23rd caeeting to communicate their concern regarding the proposed restructuring of the Huntington Beach Planning Commission. Upon seeing a actual draft of the changes proposed for Division vine, Article 900, Section 9003, objection.must be voiced to the following: Each member of the Planning Commission shall serve at the pleasure of the City Councilperson who appointed him. Officers of HOME Council feel that enactment of that por— tion of the proposed code amendment could lead to chaos at its worst and lack of stability in the planning process at its best. As written there is no safeguard against the capricious action of even one councilperson disrupting the planning process by retiring his planning commissioner during a series of sensitive public hearings on 1 ) planning legislation, 2) general plan amendments, or 3) rezone requests. Such a action taken when another member or members of the Planning Commission were in- active because of out—of—town business, vacation or illness could severly cripple the functioning ability of both the Planning Commission and the Planning Department. To take it to the extreme example a councilperson under the proposed change could even delay or refuse to appoint a planning commissioner to frustrate the planning process. Continuity is recognized as a necessary ingredient in the planning process. Planning staff performance will undoubtedly be adversely effected by the proposal with it implied new commis— sioners. Each newly appointed commissioner has a formidable job before him just learning the - existing zoning code, related state law, and aspects of the existing general plan. This learn— ing process is essential before commissioners can hope to be effective in their positions. Cont. The Planning Department Staff has already been disturbed by recent Planning Commission restructuring (July 1978); by staff resignations; and by lack of a permanent department director for an extensive perioe, of time. The planning staff badly needs a period of stability. The need for continuity is recognized even by those three Orange County cities that provide for direct appointment of planning commissioners by individual councilpersons. Seal Beach commissioners serve four yeur terms like their appointing council— persons. Westminster's commissioners serve two year terms, and Irvine's commissioners serve one year terms. There is no Orange County city, to our knowledge, that has planning commissioners serving at the pleasure of the appointing councilperson. Our Executive Board recognizes that a majority vote put this code change before the City Council, and that in all likeli— hood it will be approved in one form or another. Therefore our suggestions are limited to improvement of the proposed code change. Continuity and stability could be assured if a term of office were specified. we suggest that each of the appointed planning commissioners serve a term of office matching that of their appointing councilperson and that additionally, the removal of a planning commissioner, as recommended by the appointing • councilperson, be subject to the agendized confirmation action of the City Council. We will appreciate your thoughtful consideration of the modifications suggested.

At the termination of the discussion at that time it was the interpretation of the staff that the Council had concurred with this prior schedule offered to you for review. Therefore it will be necessary to accept the resignations of the permanent planning commissioners who have submitted same to you at your September 17 meeting and declare the positions vacant, so that the Clerk's office may post them under. the Maddy Act. I had informally requested at the September 5, 1979 Planning Commission meeting that r^� the commissioners submit their letters of resignation, although the City Council had not formally voted on that as the acceptable procedure. I did, however, discuss this approach with Mr. Belsito before I suggested these resignations. As of the typing of this communication, we have received only one additional letter from Mr. Stan Cohen; there- fore, the Department of Development Services will be contacting the other two permanent members who have not yet submitted letters in regard � to their intentions on this matter. i I am attaching herewith for reference our August 30 communication.

As can be seen, the City Council has two options in creating vacancies in the positions occupied by the four_ remaining permanent Planning Commissioners. The first would be dismissal; the second would.be to request that those members submit letters of resignation from their permanent positions, which would allow the: Council then to declare the positions vacant and subsequently post the positions under the Maddy Act. The least disruptive to the planning process would be for the Council to request the resignations of these four members at your September 4, 1979 meeting. These resignations could be submitted for Council acaep- tance following the Planning Commission meeting on September 5; tha . Council .could then adjourn to a special meeting to accept these resig- nations on September 10, or in the alternative accept at your regular meeting of September 17. In either case, it would be necessary to post the vacancies for ten (10) working days to comply with the Maddy Act prior to announcing new appointments. The existing commissioners have expressed the. desire to communicate to the Council their willingness to serve in an interim capacity until permanent commissioners can be selected. With this is mind, the Council could go with interim appoint- rents of the existing commissioners to run until permanent members can be selected, appointed, and qualified to serve. In reviewing the time schedule, and in light of the fact 4hat •the majority of the City Council will be out of town in the week of September 24, it will be impossible to have a new, permanent commission appointed before October 1. As we have two fairly significant tract maps for residential development pending and tentatively scheduled for the October 2 Planninq Commission meeting, I would like to suggest that the interim appointments run through that meeting. If the Attorneys office concurs, the Council could name its choices of Planning Commissioners at your October 1 meeting with the appointment to begin following the Planning Commission meeting of. Tuesday, October 2. If the positions were to become effective on or about October 3, the planning staff would have an opportunity to schedule a study session with the new commission on October 9 prior to their formal meeting of October 16. f • I • Page 2 The: above is offered only as a sucigested procedure; however, we feel strongly that this would create the least disruption and best-,paintain the continuity of the planning process. In summary; 1) Council rgquests letters of resignation - September 4 , 1979 2) Planning Commission submits letters of resignation effective . 12 midnight - September 5, 1979 3) Vacancies declared by City Council -- September 17, 1979 4) Maddy Act posting - September 18 through September 28, 1979 5) New appointments named for the Planning Commission - October 1, 1979 . (appointments effective October 3) . I hope the above information adequately outlines the position of the Department of Development Services in regard to the process of appoint- iag the permanent commission. Should there be any questions, I will be present at the September 4, 1979 meeting to respond to them. Fespectfully submitted, ,. � C _ 'James-W. 'Patin, Director JWP:df .

Should it. be the decision of the council to make interim appointments until the new planning commission is seated, I will be glad to serve in such a role to assist the city. However, if such interim appointments are made, I would prefer, for personal and professional reasons, that the council appoint an interim commissioner to replace me. { Unless otherwise requested by the council, my resignation shall be effective after the conclusion of the September 5, 1979, meeting of the planning commission. I would like to thank the members of the council for giving me the opportunity ' to serve as a planning commissioner. My tenure has provided me with an enriching experience which has been particularly rewarding for me since at the time I was appointed I had no political or personal ties with any member of the council. My appointment gave me renewed faith that there was room within local government for citizens who demonstrated the desire and ability to serve their i city in important positions, despite their lack of personal or political- allegiances. In making your future appointments to the planning commission under the new system, I hope you will cciv.;nue to beep the doors of local government open to new faces.

DATE: July 91 1979 CITY QXtR I _ • SUBJECT: PLANNING COMMISSION APPOINT1 ENTS Recently, the City Council adopted ordinance 2384, which will become effec- tive on July 18, 1979, to re-establish the Planning Commission. Subsequently Ordinance 2387 was introduced for its first reading on July 2, 1979. Neither of these ordinances has a provision whereby a commissioner will remain in 6 office until such time ,as his successor has baen appointed; therefore, there can be a time when we are operating with only four Planning Commissioners. We currently have one vacancy on the Commission, and Commissioners Higgins' and Bazil's terms have expired as of July 1, 1979. In review with the City Attorney's office, however, it was determined that they may retain their, seats until the original grant of authority hag,,expired oi�,, their existing terms, which will occur at 12:00 midnight on Jdly 17, 1979.N Previously the is charter contained a provision on boards and commissions whi h stated " . . . the members thereof shall serve for terms of four years and until their respective successors are appointed and qualified. " This provision allowed commissioners to serve until their successors were seated, but it was repealed by the enactment of the new charter and no provision\is contained in any ordinance to allow this transition from one Commission �o another. As their terms would not expire this year, the four remaining commissioners will remain in office until Ordinance 2387 becomes effective. However-, problems may arise in advertising the vacancies and making the selections under the new procedure, and in the near future we may be operating without an authorized Planning Commission in attendance at the regularly scheduled meetings. I would strongly urge the City Council to consider making interim appointments to provida a minimum of at least six commission members through to the effective date of Ordinance 2387 in August or September. On that effective date the interim appointments would become null and void and the Council could again select pursuant to the provisions of Ordinance 2387. Without such interim appointments, we would be holding hearings in August with just the foar members, which would require a unanimous vote to act on any project or application pending before the Commission. Your consideration of this matter would be greatly appreciated. If you should need additional information, please do not hesitate to call me. _spectfull itt d, r �Palin, Director tment of Development 5ervicesa f �a y q 1 � j REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION Submitted by James W.

RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution setting forth compensation for Planning Commission members at or above the presently existing schedule of compensation. ANALYSIS: Recently in the adoption of Ordinance 2384 establishing a Planning i Commission for the City of Huntington Beach, a provision was inserted (Section 9007) setting forth compensation to be set by resolution of the City Council. This ordinance will become effective on July 18, 1979, at thich time the existing authority of the Planning Commission will be repealed. That prior authority set forth the compensation for the Planning Commissioners in the amount of $15.00 for each meeting 1 attended and limited the compensation to not more than three (3) meetings atterled in any calendar month. I would strongly urge that the City Council adopt a resolution estab- lishing compensation for Commissioners at least equal if not greater than the current provisions of Division 91 Article 900. This resolu- tion uould be adopted at your July 16, 1979 meeting sc that there t ►io Ve I i - _ Panning Commission 0-..,gensa}ion July 91 1979 Page 2 would be a continuation of compensation for the Commission.

M A60, c:rmx nu :c Statement of Issue, Recommendation,Analysis, Funding Source,Aiternative Actions: STI,TEMENT OF ISSUE: Frequent questions that arise during the course of approvals for a land use plan or a proposed project is its cost/revenue ratio or its fiscal impact upon City services. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Planning Department to request proposals from responsible economic consulting firms for the preparation of a computerized local government fiscal impact model. ANALYSIS: As early as 1973, the Planning Department attempted to develop an in- house study of the cost of servicing various land uses compared with the revenues generated. This study was updated in 1976 at considerable personnel cost and time expended. The analysis is very limited in that it represents a snapshot of conditions that are valid only for the time the data was collected. It also is in very general categories which limits its application to day-to-day problems. Since we did our initial study, the state of the art in this type of analysis has improved to the point where computer models are quite conanon. ULTRASYSTEMS of Irvine has prepared such a model under a 701 Grant from HUD. It is currently used by Anaheim, San Juan Capistrano, and San Jose. Several other cities are in the process of using it or are considering it.

We estimate six man months to complete this at a personnel cost of $12,426.00 for the planner alone. Supervisory and clerical time would be = dded to that. At the end of this time we would have a more detailed cost-revenue analysis but it would be good only for that point in time. Also we would not be able to analyze individual projects and land use plans as the formulas are too long and cumbersome to be worked out by hand - this is where one of the advantages of a computer mode?. is. Also the computer model allows us to change factors in the model as real world conditions change (such as changes in the revenue picture created by passage of Proposition 13) . The model can be rerun with a changed factor much faster than reworking the formula by hand. By utilizing a responsible consulting firm, the City will ensure development of a model that is most suitable to conditions in Huntington Beach. It also will be less costly over the long-term with a truer picture of fiscal impacts. Estimated cost is $10,000.00. FUNDING SOURCE: Contingency Fund would be the primary funding source. Alternative funding source would be to set it up on a charge back and/or fee basis to the iI City project (i.e. , General Plan or to the developer) . ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: i 1. Direct the Planning Staff to update and develop a fiscal impact model of land uses. Considerable personnel cost and time expended. 2. No revenue/expenditure update. Dizcontinue program.

MEMORANDUM OPINION This .office recognized a potential problem should Commissioner Slates be nominated for the position of Chairman of the -Planning Commission prior to the meeting of August 16, 1977. This written memorandum, reflects the legal research done •rior to tha t at meeting. The pertinent facts are these: 1. Roger Slates served as Chairman of the Planning Com- mission fror. September 3, 1975, to July 7, 1976. 2. Mrs. Finley' s term as a Commissioner was .to expire on June 30, 1976. 3. At the Planning Commission meeting of July 7, 1976, and l prior to her official reappointment to the Planning i Commission, Mrs. Finley was elected Chairman. u. On July 13, 1976, the Planning Com.<nission was dissolved and a new Commission was appointed including Mrs. Finley. 5. On August 17, 1976, Mr. Roger Slates was elected Chair- man of the Planning Commission. 6. On August 16, 1977, Mr. Roger Slates was elected to another term as Chairman of the Planning Commission. The By-Laws of the Planning Commission prohibit the occupation of the office of Chairman or Vice-Chairman for more than two consecu- tive terms. Mr. Slates had previously served the Commission as Chairman from September 3, 1975, to the election of Mrs. Finley as Chairman on July 7, 1976. The issue, then, is whether there was sufficient hiatus in the occupation of the office of Chair- man by Mr. Slates from July 7, 1976, to August 17, 1976, to label his election to the chair on August 17, 1976, as non-consecutive. The answer is "yes". Mrs. Finley's election to the Chairmanship on July 7, 1976, was a valid election, even though her term of office was to expire on June 30, 1976. Section 802 of the City Charter states in part, t„ " . . .Members thereof shall serve for terms of four years and until their respective successors are appointed and qualified. . .

BOX 190 CALIFORNIA 92640 T0: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Planning Commission ATTENTION: Floyd G. Belsito, City Administrator DATE: August 25, 1977 q SUBJECT: Alternate Planning Commission Members PLANNING CO3%1MISSION AND STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Maintain the existing numerical makeup and procedural arrangement of the Planning Commission. SUMMARY ANALYSIS: Recently the City Council requested a study on the feasibility of appointing an eight member Planning Commission, with one Com- missioner to act as an alternate or member--at-large. At their July 12, 1977 study session, the Planning Commission reviewed and concurred with the conclusions reached in a staff analysis of the matter (see attachment) . Briefly reiterated, the benefits of an eight member/alternate Planning Commission arrangement would be to further insure that a quorum is achieved and to more actively provide training and experience to persons who may eventually matriculate to the role of a permanent member of a Board or Commission. The major drawback foreseen with this arrangement, however, is that, in recognition of the caseload the Commission has, the efficiency of conducting meetings would be severely hampered. The following example of this problem was cited in the staff report: Suppose the alternate Planning Commissioner filled in for an I, absentee at a meeting where a Conditional Use Permit was to be considered and the petition was continued. At a subsequent meeting (at which time the Planning Commissioner who was absent at the previous meeting when the petition was considered is now present) the permanent Commissioner must either have re- viewed the record in preparation to participate in the vote on the matter or give way to the alternate member to consider that particular issue. Similarly, the same comp:ic::tions would be present if the alternate Planning Commissioner were ever absent and then had to replace an absent Planning Commissioner to vote on a particular issue at an ensuing meeting. dp r t Page Two Based upon the review of the procedural aspects of an eight member Planning Commission, the Commission and the staff have concluded that this approach is not as desirable a3 the existing arrangement and therefore recommends to the City Council to maintain the existing arrangement of the Planning Commission. if the City Council is desirous of implementing the eight member Planning Commission concept, however, both Charter and Ordinance Amendments would be necessary to effect this change.

Planning Commission FROM: Planning Department DATE: -July 1, 1977 RE: ALTERNATE PLANNING COMMISSION MEMBERS 1.0 BACKGROUND INFOR14ATION: in considering various aspects of filling vacant Planning Commission positions, the City Council requested the City Administrator to study the feasibility of appointing eight Planning Commissioners, with .one to act as an alternate or commissioner-at-large. Typically, the alternate would sit: in as an acting planning commissioner with full voting powers when a commissioner was absent. As a part of this study, the Administrator has requested the Planning Commission to analyze the alternative concept and to set forth any recommendations they may have in this regard. Staff has investigated this issue and offers the following information for the Planning Commission's consideration. 2.0 ANALYSIS: In Orange County, only Fountain Valley and Villa Park provide an alternate Planning Commissioner to fill in for absentee members. Villa Park's alternate is on call for his services and does not regularly attend a,ll meetings; however, Fountain Valley's alternate attends all Planning Commission meetings. In both cities, the alternate. Planning Commissioner has full voting rights when filling in for absentees, however, the alternate does not actively participate in a regular meeting where there is a full complimcat of the permanent members. Staff representatives from both Fountain Valley and Villa. Park support this concept for various reasons. Villa Park cited their dependance ' on the alternate member to insure that a quorum is obtained for dis- posing of business. Fountain Valley, on the other hand, views the primary advantage of having an alternate planning commissioner from the 'standpoint of providing a- training position for future permanent status on that body. The feasibility of creating an alternate Planning Commissioner position must be predecated upon a careful comparison of benefits and drawbacks this concept poses in relation to the overall function of the planning agency. lum ,f7�Sr 5 .i:r+[wr+..r .„�.-._. ....�....-..................._....�.. .....-.-+`. ... .u.�......._... .........-.._.-��.-......_..� w.n. r..Yw+.rw....rr.`w.�.r.waY1Kw.RMI Tf ' Page Two For the reasons previously cited by representatives of those cities having alternate planning commissioners this concept would be bene- ficial. From the standpoint of providing "on the job training" in the com- plexities of the planning process, the alternate planning commissioner arrangement would better prepare a person in his role of decision- making.- Such an arrangement would also provide the City Council with a performance background which could be considered in filling future vacancies on the Commission. To an extent, the .possibility ,of gaining a quorum to proceed with a meeting would be. further insured with an alternate Planning Commissioner available. Because the Planning Commission is composed of seven members, however, the absence of any four members at one time is rare. The staff views this advantage as being more beneficial to Planning Commission's which number only five members (as in Villa Park and Fountain Valley) and the importance of maintaining an alternate for this purpose is minimum as applied to Huntington beach. in consideration of the current procedures under which the Planning Comminsion operates, the staff believes there are numerous drawbacks of the alternate planning commission member concept. The .primary drawback the staff foresees is in the area of conducting j Planning Commission meetings efficiently. To cite an example, suppose the alternate planning commissioner filled in for an absentee at a meeting where a conditional use permit was to be considered and the petition was continued. At a subsequent meeting. (at which time the planning. commissioner who was absent at the provious meeting when the petition was considered is now present) the permanent commissioner must either have reviewed the record in preparation to participate in the vote on the matter or give way to the alternate ' member to consider that particular issue. Similarly✓, the same compli- cations would be present if the alternate planning commissioner were ever absent, and then had to replace an absent planning commissioner to vote on a particular issue at an ensuing meeting. This example briefly demonstrates that a number of problems could rise by arranging the planning commission in this manner. The problem is compounded by the fact that the planning commission handles a large case load and the alternate commissioner may be replacing different commissioners at every meeting. In addition, the alternate planning commissioner could be placed in a critical position where he would be in pivotal vote on issues where he has.'not actively participated and has not previously shared his views with his colleagues in a public forum. a� -� 1 , � • Page Three In summation, the staff believes the planning commission can efficiently handle business with the present structure even vhen there are absentees. This Contention is due largely to the fact that a seven-member planning commission, even with absentees, can vote for or against a project and usually obtain a majority vote one way" or the other. Cases in which one planning commissioner may be absent and a matter must be continued because of a tie vote are also rare and the necessity of assuring that there are an odd number of planning commissioners present is deemphasized. 3. 0 SUGGESTED ACTION: Direct the :staff to report the Planning Commission's viewpoint on the matter of establishing an alternate planning commissioner arrange- ment. For the Planning Commission's information, if the City Council is desirous of implementing this concept., both charter and ordinance amendments will be necessary to effect this change.

The point comes through rather clearly that the cost to develop a stable is extremely high. These costs are apparently related to the type of improvements needed to meet City requirements. These requirements include the installation (if sewer and water lines, the payment of fees and, if need be, the installation of street improvements. The Fire Department's requirement to install sprinkler systems in combustible buildings or to construct buildings of non--combustible materials also appears to be somewhat prohibitive. Stable operators who are just starting their business may be limited in their ability to finance a complete facility before th,:y open for business. These costs combined with possible financial problems may cause them to either ignore the law or ask the City for special consideration to be temporarily relieved of a requirement. I I understand that when the Cite Council decided to r:ermit horse stables within the City, it was intended to permit them on a temporary basis and to do so with minimum costs. The estimated cost to develop a five--acre horse stably: with 75 horses is approximately $75,000. This investment must be amortized over a five-year period unless otherwise permitted by the Planning Commission. I believe this is too hiqh a price to pay for a temporary recreational facility and request the City Council to direct staff to consider alternatives which may reduce these excessive costs.
