B. BACKGROUND
The City's Local Coastal Program consists of two parts: the Coastal Element and the
Implementing Ordinances. The Implementing Ordinances include the Zoning and
Subdivision Ordinance and specific plans that encompass coastal zone property (Downtown
Specific Plan, Holly Seacliff Specific Plan, Seacliff Specific Plan, Palm and Goldenwest
Specific Plan, and Magnolia Pacific Specific Plan). Any changes to the Implementing
Ordinances must be forwarded to the Coastal Commission as a local coastal program
amendment (LCPA).
C. STAFF ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION:
This LCPA represents a minor amendment to the City's Local Coastal Program. All of the
amendments have been approved by the City Council with public hearings and no coastal
related issues were brought forward. Staff has grouped these amendments as one LCPA to
minimize staff and administrative time because they are minor from the Coastal
Commission's perspective.

The City Council of the City of Huntington Beach does hereby ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. Section 2154.08 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance
is hereby amended to read as follows:
254.08 Parkland Dedication
A. General. This Section is enacted pursuant to the authority granted by the
Subdivision Map Act and the general police power of the City including the power
to zone and the power to implement open space and recreational elements of the
General Plan. This Section is adopted to implement the provisions of the Quimby
Act which authorizes the City to require the dedication of land for park and
recreational facilities or payment of in-lieu fees incident to and as a condition of the
approval of a tentative tract map or tentative parcel map for a residential
subdivision..The park and recreational facilities for which dedication of land
and/or.payment of an in-lieu fee as required by this Section are in accordance with
the policies,principles and standards for park, open space and recreational facilities.;
contained in the General Plan.
The general purposes and objectives of this Section are:

City of Huntington Beach;

local park and recreational facilities;
3. To secure for.the citizens of Huntington Beach the social and physical
advantages resulting from the provision of orderly park, recreation and open

GAORDINAN00I Zoning Ord\02 Zoning Ord\chap 254.doc5/14/02 1
Ord. No. 3562
B. Requirements. The requirements of this Section shall be complied with by the
dedication of land, payment of a fee in lieu thereof, or both, at the option of the
City, for park or recreational purposes at the time and according to the standards
and formula contained in this Section. The amount and location of land
dedicated or the fees to be paid, or both, shall be used for acquiring, developing
new.or rehabilitating existing community and neighborhood parks and other
types of recreational facilities in such a manner that the locations of such parks.
and recreational facilities bear a reasonable relationship to the use of the park and
recreational facilities by the future inhabitants of the subdivision generating such
dedication or fees, or both. Dedications for trails shall not be included as part of
any requirements for park or recreational dedication.
Lands to be dedicated or reserved for park and/or recreational purposes shall be
suitable in the opinion of the Director and the Director of Community Services in
location,topography, environmental characteristics and development potential as
related to the intended use. The primary intent of this Section shall be construed
to provide the land for passive and active recreation, including but not limited to:
tot lots, play lots,playgrounds,neighborhood parks,playfields, community or
regional parks, lakes, picnic areas,tree groves or urban forests, and other
specialized recreational facilities that may serve residents of the City. Principal
consideration shall be given therefore to lands that offer:
1. A variety of recreational potential for all age groups;
2. Recreational opportunities provided and maintained in a manner that will
permit the maximum use and enjoyment by residents of the City of
Huntington Beach:
3. Possibility for expansion or connection with school grounds;
4. Integration with hiking, riding and bicycle trails, natural stream reserves
and other open space;
5. Coordination with all other park systems;
6. Access to at least one existing or proposed public street.
C. General Standard. It is hereby found and determined that the public interest,
convenience, health, safety and welfare require that five acres of property for each
1,000 persons residing within the City be devoted to local park and recreational
purposes.
D. Standards and Formula for Dedication of Land. Where a park or recreational
facility has been designated in the General Plan and is to be located in whole or in
part within the proposed subdivision and is reasonably related to serving the
present and future needs of the residents of the subdivision, the subdivider shall
dedicate land for park and recreation facilities sufficient in size and topography to
meet that purpose. The amount of land to be provided shall be determined pursuant
to the following standards and formula:
A= 5.0 (DF x No. DU)
1000
1. Definitions of terms:
G:\ORDINANC 0I Zoning Ord\02 Zoning Ord\chap 254.doc5/14/02 2
Ord. No. 3562
a. A- the area in acres required to be dedicated as a park site or to be
appraised for in-lieu fee payment for the subdivision.
b. DF - density factor as determined pursuant to Section 254.08(E).
C. 5.0 number of acres per one thousand persons.
d. No. DU -number of dwelling units proposed in the subdivision.
2. When a proposed subdivision contains dwelling units with different density
factors, the formula shall be used for each such density factor and the
results shall be totaled.
3. Dedication of parkland shall not be required for parcel maps or
subdivisions containing 50 parcels or less; except that when a
condominium project, stock cooperative or community apartment project
exceeds 50 dwelling units, dedication of land may be required
notwithstanding that the number of parcels may be less than 50.
E. Density.
The amount of land dedicated or fees paid shall be based upon residential
density,which is determined on the basis of the approved tentative map and the
average number of persons per household. The average number of persons per
household.by unit in a structure shall.be established by City Council resolution
and be derived from the most recent available federal.census or state or City
population and housing data.
The number of dwelling units in a subdivision shall be the number proposed for
construction. When the actual number of units to be constructed is unknown, it
shall be assumed for the purposes of this chapter that the maximum number
permissible by law will be constructed.
F. Standard Improvements. The dedication of land for park and recreational
purposes shall not be deemed to waive any other requirements that maybe
imposed by,the City. The subdivider may, at the time of the approval of the
tentative map,be obligated by condition to said map to provide curbs, gutters,
sidewalk, drainage facilities, street lighting, stoplights, street signs, matching
pavement and street trees to.full City standards, to stub-in requested standard
improvements required for residential property plus initial on-site grading
required for developing the park facility. In lieu of making said improvements
and upon approval of the Planning Commission or City Council,whichever acts
last on the tentative map, the subdivider may pay a sum as estimated by the
Director of Public Works sufficient to cover the cost of said improvements. The
environmental condition of any land dedicated pursuant to this Section shall
satisfy all federal, state and local requirements applicable to parkland and
recreational facilities.
G. Formula for Fees in Lieu of Land Dedication.
1. General Formula. Whenever the requirements of this Section are met
solely on the basis of the payment of a fee in lieu of land dedication, the
subdivider shall pay a fee in lieu of dedication equal to the value of the
G:\ORD[NANC\01 Zoning Ord\02 Zoning Ord\chap 254.doc5/14/02 3
Ord. No. 3562
land prescribed for dedication in Section 254.08(D) and in an amount
determined in accord with the provisions of Section 254.08(I).
2. Fees in Lieu of Land - 50 Parcels or Less. If the proposed subdivision
contains 50 parcels or less and has no park or recreational facility, the
subdivider shall pay a fee equal to the land value of the portion of the park
or.recreational facilities required to serve the needs of the residents of the
proposed subdivision as prescribed in Section 254.08(D) and in an amount` .
determined in accordance Avith the provisions of Section 254.08(I). When a
condominium project, stock cooperative or community apartment project
exceeds 50 dwelling units, dedication of land may be required
notwithstanding that the number of parcels may be less than 50.
3. Use of Fees. The fees paid to the City pursuant to this Section and the
interest accrued from such fees shall be used, in accordance with the
schedule developed pursuant to Section 254.08(M), for the purpose of
acquiring, developing new or rehabilitating existing neighborhood or
community park or recreational facilities reasonably related to serving the
subdivision, including the purchase of necessary land and/or improvement
of such land for park or recreational purposes. All fees collected pursuant
to this Section shall be transferred for deposit into a separate fund and used
solely for the purposes specified in this Section. All monies deposited into
the fund shall be held separate and apart from other City funds. All
interest or other earnings on the unexpended balance in the fund shall be
credited to the fund. The money deposited in the fund account shall be
committed to the partial or full completion of necessary purchases or
improvements within five years after payment thereof or.the issuance of
building permits on one-half of the lots created by the subdivision;
whichever occurs later. If the money is not committed, it shall be
distributed and paid to the then record owners of the subdivision in the
same proportion that the size of each lot bears to the total area of all lots in
the subdivision. Any requests for refunds shall-be submitted to the Director
in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 254.08(P).
4. Standard Improvements. When the requirements of this Section are met
solely on the basis of the payment of a fee in lieu of land dedication, in
addition to the in-lieu fee,the subdivider shall also pay an amount equal to
20 percent of the in-lieu fee to provide curbs, gutters, drainage facilities,
street lighting, stop lights, sidewalks, street signs, matching pavement and
street trees to full City standards, stubbing in of utility line services.to the
park facility, and all standard improvements required by the City for
residential subdivisions.
H. Criteria for Requiring Both Dedication and Fee. If the proposed subdivision
contains more than 50 lots, the subdivider shall both dedicate land and pay a fee
in lieu of dedication in accordance with the following:
1. When only a portion of the land to be subdivided is proposed in the
General Plan as the site for a local park or recreational facility, such
portion shall be dedicated for local park purposes and a fee computed
pursuant to the provisions of Section 254.08(I) shall be paid for any
additional land that would have been required to be dedicated pursuant to
Section 254.08(D).
GAORDINANC\01 Zoning Ord\02 Zoning Ord\chap 254.doc5/14/02 4
Ord. No. 3562
2. When a major part of the local park or recreational site has already been
acquired by the City and only a small portion of land is needed from the
subdivision to complete the site, such portion shall be dedicated, and a fee,
computed according to Section 254.08(I) shall be paid in an amount equal
to the value of the land which would otherwise have been required to be
dedicated according to Section.254.08(D).
3. The fee shall be used for the improvement of the existing park or
recreational facility or for the improvement of other neighborhood or
community parks and recreational facilities reasonably related to serving
the subdivision.
I. Amount of Fee in Lieu of Park Land Dedication. Where a fee is required to be
paid in lieu of park land dedication, such fee shall be equal to the fair market
value for each acre which would otherwise have been required to be dedicated by
Section 254.08D. Fair market value of the land shall be determined by a
qualified real estate-appraiser that has been.selected and retained by the City at
the expense of the subdivider and is a member of the American Institute of Real
Estate Appraisers ("Qualified Real Estate Appraiser"). The fair market value of
the land shall be based on the average acre value of the property to be subdivided
at the time of the recording of the final subdivision map, adjusted to reflect the
value of such acre of property rough graded to a maximum two percent slope.
Such appraisal shall exclude improvement. The date of value of the property for
purposes of the appraisal shall be within 60 days of payment of the fee as
referenced in Section 254.08L.
If the subdivider objects to the fair market value as determined by the.Qualified
Real Estate Appraiser, the subdivider may, at his own expense, retain another.
Qualified Real Estate Appraiser to complete a second appraisal. If the City .
disputes the fair market value as determined by the second appraisal, the matter
will be submitted to binding arbitration at the expense of the subdivider.
Subdivisions consisting of three or fewer parcels. If the proposed subdivision
contains three (3) or fewer parcels, the Director shall determine the fair market
value of the property to be subdivided based upon the fair market value of
adjacent parcels in consideration of site characteristics of the property. If the
subdivider objects to the determination of the Director, the subdivider may retain,.
at his or her.own expense, a Qualified Real Estate Appraiser to provide the fair
market value of the property to be subdivided. In the event the Director's
determination of the land value exceeds the Qualified Real Estate Appraiser's
appraisal by more than$5,000.00,the average of both determinations shall be
established as the fair market value.
J. Determination of Land or Fee. Whether the City accepts land dedication, or
elects to require the payment of a fee in lieu of, or a combination of both, shall be
determined by the Director after consideration of the following:
l. Policies, standards and principles for park and recreational facilities in the
General Plan;
2. Topography, geology, access and location of land in the subdivision
available for dedication;
3. Size and shape of the subdivision and land available for dedication;
GAORDINAN001 Zoning Ord\02 Zoning Ord'chap 254.docs 1402 5
Ord. No. 3562
4. Feasibility of dedication;
5. Compatibility of dedication with the General Plan;
6. Availability of previously acquired park property.
The determination by City as to whether land shall.be dedicated, or whether a
fee shall be charged,:or a combination.of both, shall be final and conclusive.
K. Credit for Improvements and Private Open Space. If the subdivider provides
park and recreational improvements to the dedicated land other than those
referenced in Section 254.08(F),the value of the improvements together with any

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH DOES HEREBY
FIND,RESOLVE AND DETERMINE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Findings. After review of the Park Fee Study and Addendum,other staff
reports, and the testimony and information received on this matter,the City Council makes the
following findings:
1. That the purpose.of the fee to be paid pursuant to Secton 230.20.of Chapter 230 of
Title.23 of the City Zoning and Subdivision Code ("Fee")is for the development and
rehabiliation of the City's parks and recreational facilities in order to assure that the
policies and standards for park, open space and recreational facilities contained in the
City's General Plan and described in the Park Fee Study are met.
2. That additional park and recreational facilities will be needed to serve commercial,
industrial and residential development within the City subject to Section 230.20 of

Code, shall be used to develop and rehabilitate park and recreational facilities within
the City to assure the provision of park land and recreational facilities needed to
serve such development at established City service levels standards within a
reasonable period of time.
4. That the Fee hereby imposed is reasonably related to the impacts of new residential,
commercial and industrial development because, as determined by the Park Fee
Study and the Addendum, future residents will benefit from appropriately planned,
and constructed park and recreational facilities. The Fee is reasonably related to the
impacts of development on the City's park land and recreational facilities because,
and demonstrated by the Fee Study and the Addendum,the type of development
subject to the Fee generates increased use of park and recreational facilities
throughout the City which necessitates development and rehabiliation of the City's
existing park and recreational facilties and acquisition of additional facilities. The
Fee proceeds will be used to mitigate these impacts.
5. That there is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the Fee and the portion
of the cost of needed park and recreational facilities and/or improvements
attributable to new development in the City because the amount of the Fee is based
upon the square footage of the proposed development.
6. The fees collected_pursuant to this Resolution shall.be transferred for deposit into a
separate fund from any-fees or revenues of the city and all such funds shall be .
accounted for. The account shall be an interest bearing account and all interest
received shall be credited to such account and used solely for purposes of that
account. The City shall commit or expend park fees deposited to the account within
five years from the date of deposit.

construction and only that portion which exceeds substantially equivalent
construction to be assesed a fee.

the adoption of this Resolution is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQX)
under Section 15273(a)(4)of the California Code of Regulations, commonly known as the CEQA
