RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Commission and Planning Staff recommends that the City Council approve Code Amendment 81-3 and adopt the attached ordinance. ANALYSIS• Applicant: Planning Commission Location: Citywide Request: An amendment to the Huntington Beach Ordinance which will allow the City to require private streets and roadways to be developed to City standards set forth by the Department of Public Works and to require that minimum setbacks be established from the ultimate right-of-way of a private street similar to that of a public street. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION ON APRIL 7, 1981: ON MOTION BY WINCHELL AND SECOND BY BAUER, CODE AMENDMENT NO. 81-3 WAS APPROVED FOR RECOMMENDATION. TO THE CITY COUNCIL BY THE FOLLOWING. VOTE: AYES: Bannister, Kenefick, Winchell, Porter, Schumacher, Bauer NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None �T ,x PIO 4/81 Page Two DISCUSSION: Code Amendment No. 81-3 is an amendment to Article 970 of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code by adding a definition of private streets and roadways and amends Article 973 of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code by requiring street improvements pursuant to the Department of Public Works standard plans for private streets and roadways. This code amendment was initiated in conjunction. with Precise Plan of Street Alignment 80-1, an alignment for establishing private streets of minimum dimension in order to provide access to an area that is presently accessed via 20 ft.. wide private easements. Code Amendment No. 80-3 is divided into three specific areas; the first area is a definition of private streets and roadways, the second area adds the words "private street" to the definition of ultimate right of way. This section has been added in order to require standard setbacks for new development adjacent to public streets or roadways; and section three is an amendment to include private streets in this section requiring improvements for all streets, alleys, right-of-ways and now private streets to be made prior to the occupancy of any new structure abutting said right-of- way. At the present time, the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code does not address private streets for any us.e_:`other-: than in planned develop- ments. Both the staff and the Planning Commission feel that this amendment will allow the Tlexibility for the development and im- provements of private streets in those areas where it is virtually impossible to design and/or develop a public street.. These private streets and roadways would only be permitted in very unique situ- ations and only where a public street cannot be accommodated. ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS: Pursuant to Section 15105 of the California Environmental Quality Act, this code amendment is a categorical exemption. FUNDING SOURCE- Non Applicable. ALTERNATIVE ACTION: The City Council may consider denying this code amendment which would preclude the use of private streets in any situation except for plan- ned residential developments. g Page Three SUPPORTING INFORMATION: 1.
