Financial Impact: A budget appropriation of $250,000 from the Park Development Impact Fund is requested since this project is not included in the FY 2021/22 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) budget. Recommended Action: Authorize the appropriation of $250,000 from the Park Development Impact Fund to account 22845029.82900 for the installation of new playground equipment and rubberized surfacing at Booster Park. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Following a recent safety inspection by the Public Works Department, it was determined that the playground equipment at Booster Park needed to be removed due to its aged condition and the inability to order replacement parts. It was also observed that the rubberized surfacing had deteriorated in some locations, creating further need to renovate the area. Improvements to the playground were initially scheduled to be requested as part of the FY 2022/23 CIP. However, due to the unexpected need to remove the playground equipment and high community usage of playground equipment, staff is requesting that the funds be appropriated now, so the equipment may be ordered City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™23 File #:22-276 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 and installed this fiscal year. Booster Park is a mini-park in Huntington Harbour located at 16861 Baruna Lane on Davenport Island. The park is popular and is within walking distance of Harbour residents. In addition to the recently removed playground equipment, amenities include a half-court basketball court and open grass area, making the park a highly frequented location for the surrounding community. Booster Park is on the City Council Approved Amended Park Playground and Equipment Replacement Priority List (3/18/19). Environmental Status: The installation of new playground equipment at Booster Park is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15302 of the CEQA Guidelines because the project consists of the replacement of existing structures where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity.

The first step in the abatement process, to allow for cost recovery pursuant to the California Government Code, is to declare certain properties a public nuisance via resolution. Financial Impact: No immediate fiscal impact is associated with declaring certain properties to be a public nuisance. Recommended Action: Adopt Resolution No. 2022-11, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Finding and Declaring That Certain Weeds Growing in the City, and Rubbish and Refuse Deposited on Public Ways and Private Property are a Public Nuisance; and Fixing the Time for Hearing Protests and Objections to the Abatement Thereof.” Alternative Action(s): Do not adopt the resolution, and direct staff to take a different course of action. Analysis: The California Government Code includes a provision allowing local governments to declare weeds and rubbish a public nuisance as a precursor to abatement. Pursuant to this provision, the City of Huntington Beach has adopted Chapter 8.16 Weed Abatement into the Municipal Code. This chapter City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™26 File #:22-287 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 requires that, “all persons owning any real property within the City keep said property free from weeds or other flammable materials that endanger public safety by creating a fire hazard.” In accordance with HBMC Section 8.16.020 Nuisance Declared, the City Attorney’s Office has prepared a resolution declaring that certain weeds, rubbish, and refuse deposited on specific properties are a public nuisance, with provisions for posting a notice and abatement of said nuisance. The resolution establishes May 3, 2022 at 6:00 p.m. as the date and time for the hearing of objections to the abatement of said nuisance. Exhibit A of the resolution identifies the privately owned, undeveloped properties that are currently or potentially in violation of the Municipal Code. Environmental Status: The removal of weeds, refuse, and rubbish from undeveloped private properties is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(h), which exempts the maintenance of existing landscaping and native growth.

If awarded, grant funds would support the Huntington Beach Sand to Snow Outdoor Education Program that will offer local day trips, access to environmental educational and skill enhancement programs, and overnight experiences for youth. Financial Impact: The grant program request is not to exceed $700,000, and any funds received may be utilized across multiple fiscal years through FY 2025/26. If City is awarded the grant, another Request for Council Action (RCA) to accept the grant award and appropriate the funds will be submitted to the City Council for consideration. Matching funds are not required and grant expenditures are fully reimbursable. Recommended Action: Adopt Resolution No. 2022-12, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Approving the Application for Outdoor Equity Grants Program Grant Funds .” Alternative Action(s): Do not approve Resolution No. 2022-12, and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: On October 5, 2021, City Council approved Resolution No. 2021-57 authorizing staff to apply to the City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™33 File #:22-277 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 State Department of Parks and Recreation for the Outdoor Equity Grants Program Grant Funds (OEGP grant funds). Upon review, the State Department of Parks and Recreation requested that the resolution include the official name of the program, “Huntington Beach Sand to Snow Outdoor Education Program.” Item 1 of Resolution 2022-12 must be updated to include the following statement: “Approval to file an application for the City of Huntington Beach Sand to Snow Outdoor Education Program, through the Outdoor Equity Grants Program Grant Funds.” No other amendments have been requested by the State Department of Parks and Recreation to fulfil the grant application requirements. Item 8 of Resolution No. 2022-12 repeals Resolution No. 2021-57. Via OEGP grant funds, the City has applied for State grant funds that would support a proposed multi -year program operating from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2026. The program will include opportunities for local day trips that include access to environmental, educational and skill enhancement programs, as well as overnight experiences with a goal to build in volunteer and career opportunities at the conclusion. No matching funds are required for this fully reimbursable grant. If awarded OEGP grant funds, staff will work to develop partnerships to further enhance the program.

Hopkins, Assistant City Manager PREPARED BY:Catherine Jun, Assistant to the City Manager Subject: Approve and authorize execution of a Parking License Agreement with Onni Properties LLC to Lease 50 Parking Spaces at 7842 Warner Avenue for the Oak View Pilot Parking Program (OV3P) Statement of Issue: The City Council is requested to consider a Parking License Agreement with Onni Properties LLC to lease 50 parking spaces in a parking structure at 7842 Warner Avenue. The parking spaces will be a key component of the proposed Oak View Pilot Parking Program, which will help, if only until a more permanent solution is found, alleviate the shortage of residential parking in the densely populated Oak View neighborhood. Financial Impact: Per the Parking License Agreement, the cost to lease one space is $100 per month plus a one-time fee of $20 per access device. Each participant will be required to contribute a cost-share of $10 per month.In sum, the City’s cost to lease 50 spaces during the initial pilot year is $54,000, plus $1,000 for 50 access devices. Staff also requests a 15% contingency of $9,000 to cover any payment delays during participant turnover. The total program cost of $64,000 is included in the proposed Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget in Business Unit 10040101 (Non-Departmental Funds). As such, a budget appropriation is not required at this time. Recommended Action: Approve and authorize the Mayor to execute, “Parking License Agreement” between the City of Huntington Beach and Onni Properties LLC as part of the Oak View Pilot Parking Program. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Neighborhoods with higher housing and occupancy densities struggle to identify sufficient parking for residents; the Oak View community serves as a prime example. Oak View is a one square mile, densely populated neighborhood primarily consisting of multi-family residential buildings. With an average household size of seven occupants, Oak View evidenced the highest levels of overcrowding with 38 percent of renter households labeled as “severely overcrowded” (more than 1.51 persons per room). In comparison, just 2 percent of the City and 7 percent of Orange County are severely overcrowded. This density has contributed to insufficient parking throughout the neighborhood necessitating residents to spend considerable time searching City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™37 File #:21-636 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 insufficient parking throughout the neighborhood necessitating residents to spend considerable time searching for an available space. Oak View is identified as a low-income census tract and is prioritized for infrastructure and programmatic investments that will enhance the quality of life throughout the community.These investments are collectively known as Oak View Rising, and the OV3P is one such investment that will help address the parking issue with the provision of 50 parking spaces for a trial period of one year. These spaces will be located on the top level of a parking garage at the corner of Warner Avenue and Ash Lane, and Oak View residents with a valid City- issued permit will be able to utilize the parking spaces daily. To gauge interest in OV3P, staff implemented a survey and received 65 responses from Oak View residents (see attached). Nearly all residents indicated a strong interest in participating in the program, and a majority of respondents was willing to pay up to $10 per month to secure a space. A nominal cost-share may encourage participants’ investment and use of the program. Based on the survey results, staff negotiated a Parking License Agreement with Onni Group, LLC, owners of the private garage on the northwest corner of Oak View at 7842 Warner Avenue. The proposed terms of the Agreement are as follows: Term:12-month trial period beginning July 1, 2022 and ending on June 30, 2023 Use:24-hour access to 50 parking spaces on the top floor of a parking garage located at 7842 Warner Avenue Cost:A monthly fee of $100 per space. Each participant will contribute $10 per month with the City paying the remaining $90. The City will also pay a one-time cost of $20 per access device. Furthermore, the OV3P guidelines are attached, and a brief summary is below: Eligible Participants: Residents living within the Oak View boundaries of Warner Avenue (north), Beach Boulevard (east), Talbert Avenue (south) and Gothard Street (west) may submit an application. Permits are limited to one per household. The City will begin accepting applications and in May 2022 will award 50 permits via lottery. All participants must furnish proof of insurance, vehicle registration, and residency in Oak View, and complete user agreement by June 30, 2022. Participants may opt out of the program at any time. Timeline:Permits will go into effect from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023. Other Info:Staff will analyze parking data and conduct quarterly user surveys throughout the year to determine program efficacy. The goal is to continue the program until additional parking can be installed in Oak View. There are tentative plans to build additional parking spaces as part of the Oak View Community Center project. Absent this, participants will be made aware that this is a pilot program, subject to changes or cancelation.It should be noted that Section 7(f) of the Parking License Agreement indemnifies Onni Properties LLC in instances of liability, losses, and claims caused by participants. In turn, the City will require participants to maintain sufficient insurance, in an effort to address any damage that may incur.Staff will work with the Family Resources Center and Oak View Library to notify residents about the application process. Materials will be translated into Spanish to better communicate with Hispanic members of the community. Environmental Status: Not applicable.

One such area includes the Oak View neighborhood, which is primarily comprised of multi-family residential buildings and has the highest levels of overcrowding in the City with 38 percent of renter households labeled as “severely overcrowded” (more than 1.51 persons per room). In comparison, just 2 percent of the City and 7 percent of Orange County are considered severely overcrowded. This density has contributed to insufficient parking throughout the neighborhood whereby residents are required to spend considerable time searching for an available space. As such, the City of Huntington Beach has established the Oak View Pilot Parking Program (OV3P) to help alleviate this issue within the neighborhood. The OV3P will provide limited parking relief to the Oak View community over a one-year trial period. The City has partnered with Onni Group to provide low-cost parking spaces in a private parking garage located on the northwest corner of Oak View. Residents with a valid permit will be able to utilize the parking spaces during specified hours to reduce the burden of locating on-street parking during peak residential use. PROGRAM DETAILS During the first year of this pilot program, from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023, fifty (50) designated parking spaces will be made available by lottery to qualified residents of the Oak View community in a parking garage located at 7842 Warner Avenue, Huntington Beach, CA, 92647. Participating residents will contribute $10 per month to secure a parking space. REQUIREMENTS Eligibility Residents who live within the closed boundary of Warner Avenue, Beach Boulevard, Talbert Avenue and Gothard Street are eligible to apply for a permit (up to 1 per household). Residents must provide proof of residency. See Exhibit A for a map. Licensed drivers of vehicles registered in that household are eligible to apply for a permit which is available on a lottery basis. If a vehicle is not registered to a household within the approved boundary, a resident can also provide proof of insurance that includes the relevant address as an alternative. The City will not issue permits for large, oversized vehicles such as tractor or other trailers, recreational vehicles, or towable trailers. The City will not issue permits for non-operational vehicles. To receive a permit, an applicant must show proof that the following requirements are met: 51 City of Huntington Beach Oak View Pilot Parking Program (OV3P) Guidelines o Residency at an address within the program boundary; o Current vehicle registration to the applicant at that address; o Current vehicle insurance policy; and o A completed user agreement stating that the participant will abide by the rules and requirements of the Oak View Pilot Parking Program. Maximum Number of Permits Due to the limited number of available parking spaces, permits will be limited to one per household. However, if there are more spaces than demand, the Program will consider providing permits to more than one vehicle per household. GOOD NEIGHBOR PRACTICES The City of Huntington Beach created the OV3P to help increase parking stock within the Oak View community. Further cooperation among neighbors will allow the program to be more successful. It is up to everyone, both residents and City staff, to help contribute to parking solutions. Therefore, the City asks for neighborhood help in implementing Good Neighbor Practices to encourage neighbors to participate in the process of reducing the parking burden felt by the community. Good Neighbor Requests for Residents 1. Off-street, on-site parking supply shall be used efficiently for parking. Examples of non-efficient use include not utilizing garage space(s) and driveways for parking. All residents must demonstrate and self-certify that they are using all on-site parking, for parking vehicles, to be eligible to participate in the OV3P. 2. Program participants shall not double park in the allocated spaces. 3. Program participants shall abide by the parking provisions (hours and location) outlined in ‘Program Details’. 4. Program participants shall not leave inoperable vehicles in the garage. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS The Processing Queue City staff will generally process permit requests on a lottery basis. Revocation A parking permit shall be subject to revocation if (i) a permit holder commits two (2) or more violations of any provision of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code, the California Vehicle Code or the California Penal Code during the exercise of permit parking privileges in a continuous six (6) month period. Upon determining that grounds for permit revocation exist, City staff shall furnish written notice of the proposed revocation to the permit holder and inform them they can request further review within fifteen (15) calendar days of the postmarked date on the notice. If the request for a review is filed within fifteen 52 City of Huntington Beach Oak View Pilot Parking Program (OV3P) Guidelines (15) calendar days of mailing of the notice, the City shall transmit the request to the City Manager’s Office (CMO) to conduct the review. During the review, the permit holder shall be entitled to speak with the CMO in support of his or her request to maintain the permit. Within ten (10) calendar days after the review, the CMO shall decide whether the grounds for revocation exist. If grounds for revocation exist, the CMO shall revoke the permit, specifying in writing the grounds upon which the permit is revoked. Notice of the decision of the CMO shall be given in writing to the permit holder and considered final.

Made with 55 City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street, Huntington Beach, CA 92648 File #:22-227 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION SUBMITTED TO:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY:Sean Joyce, Interim City Manager VIA:Travis K. Hopkins, Assistant City Manager PREPARED BY:Catherine Jun, Assistant to the City Manager Subject: Approve and authorize execution of a Professional Services Agreement with Buro Happold for the development of a Sustainability Master Plan; and, approve appropriation of funds Statement of Issue: In July 2021, the City Council directed staff to develop a Citywide Sustainability Master Plan. Staff completed a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to retain a consultant to provide research, analysis and consulting services for the development of a Sustainability Master Plan (SMP). Based on assessments of submittals, staff has identified Buro Happold as the most qualified firm to provide the aforementioned services and now requests authorization to execute a Professional Services Agreement for Buro Happold. Financial Impact: The scope of services performed by Buro Happold is estimated at $249,545. However, the Professional Services Agreement proposes a not-to-exceed amount of $300,000 to accommodate additional services as may later be deemed necessary by the City. To fund this agreement, staff requests a General Fund budget appropriation of $300,000 to account no. 10030101.69365. Recommended Action: A) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a “Professional Services Agreement Between the City of Huntington Beach and Buro Happold for the Development of a Sustainability Master Plan;” and, B) Approve General Fund budget appropriation of $300,000 in account 10030101.69365. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Staff previously issued an RFQ for services related to the development of an SMP, identifying metrics and goals to achieve more sustainable city operations, policies, services, and programs that will benefit the community: ·Natural resources (i.e. protecting and restoring natural habitats within the city and reducing the City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™56 File #:22-227 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 impacts of environmental hazards) ·Climate protection (i.e. reducing greenhouse gas emissions and increasing reliance on renewable energy sources for city functions) ·Community well-being (i.e. programs and services that may improve the health of residents or the conditions in which they live, work or play) ·Sustainable economy (i.e. programs that will continually support the local economy and our small businesses) The City received responses from two firms, including Buro Happold, a multidisciplinary consulting engineering firm with extensive experience developing Sustainability Master Plans for public agencies that are comparable to, or larger than, Huntington Beach. Several of these SMPs included the additional layer of addressing community well-being and a sustainable economy, which will be major components in the City’s SMP. Furthermore, the Buro Happold team for this project would include subcontractors Raimi & Associates and Toole Design, which would lend their individual expertise toward this project. It should be noted that Raimi and Associates contributed to the Santa Clara County SMP, which serves as a model for the City’s SMP; Toole Design is presently developing the City’s Mobility Master Plan - one of several elements that will be incorporated into the SMP. Staff believes the combined team has demonstrated a comprehensive working knowledge that will guide the City through this wide-reaching endeavor in a timely manner. Buro Happold’s scope of work will include robust data collection and analysis of existing and proposed sustainability efforts; community engagement in various mediums including in person meetings, virtual town halls, tabling at local events, and surveys; a cost-benefit analysis to better quantify the proposed SMP goals; and an online performance dashboard to monitor the City’s progress on the SMP goals. The estimated time of completion is approximately 12-18 months at a cost of approximately $250,000. To account for any approved changes in scope, staff has built in a total not-to-exceed amount of $300,000 should there be a need to increase services such as community outreach that goes above and beyond what is prescribed in their proposal.

Beyond the beach, the City offers residents a picturesque community with ideal weather, a robust and diversified economy, a wide variety of housing, and an excellent education system. Huntington Beach is located along the Southern California coast in Orange County, 35 miles south of Los Angeles and 90 miles north of San Diego. Named for railroad magnate Henry Huntington who orchestrated its development, the City is now an epicenter of restaurants, entertainment, and outdoor activities well-known throughout the region. Purpose The City of Huntington Beach is requesting proposals from qualified consultants to provide assistance in the policy research, plan writing and formulation of data analysis methods for a Sustainability Master Plan (hereafter, “SMP”) proposed for a first draft release in July 2022. The goal of this effort is to create a cohesive and comprehensive structure that not only ties together past, current, and planned City sustainability efforts, but also outlines a bold, inclusive vision for growth that balances the co-equal values of environment, equity, and economy. The plan should define an achievable pathway to sustainability that supports the health and well-being of all residents, responsible stewardship of the natural and built environment, and long-term economic growth. The City of Huntington Beach expects to produce a best-in- class, actionable plan informed by data and robust stakeholder engagement. Focus areas of the plan include: • Water • Energy • Climate, Air Quality • Land use and Transportation • Open Space, Recreation, Habitat, Biodiversity • Resource Recovery and Waste Management • Public Health and Well-Being • Economy and Workforce Development • Housing The overarching goals of this effort are 1) to develop detailed policies and procedures for City operations that promote the City’s ongoing commitment to the environment, economic prosperity, and social equity and 2) prepare the City to be a successful applicant for a suite of funding sources including California Climate Investments, Strategic Growth Council, SB 1 competitive dollars, philanthropic challenges, etc. This effort will work to advance Huntington Beach as a sustainability leader among its peer cities, balance efforts and impacts of sustainability initiatives, identify metrics to evaluate sustainability successes, and establish the parties who will play critical roles in ensuring future successes. Interested Consultants should prepare and submit their qualifications to justify their ability to successfully undertake this project, including a proposal for how they would approach the project as detailed above.

We are truly excited by the opportunity to work with the City of Huntington Beach, a community known for its beaches and surf culture, robust and diversified economy, variety of housing options, excellent schools, and renowned destinations for dining, entertainment, and outdoor recreation. Buro Happold is a multidisciplinary engineering and urban planning consultancy that combines technical acumen, creativity, and participatory stakeholder engagement to plan, design, and implement sustainable and resilient solutions at every scale. We are renowned for our sustainability planning work with leading-edge cities and regions across the country, as well as our ability to deliver complex and innovative projects on time and on budget. Our firm is uniquely equipped to deliver an effective sustainability master plan for the City of Huntington Beach. Buro Happold’s sustainability consultants - many of whom have worked in local government - are respected experts who have developed sustainability and climate plans for local and regional jurisdictions spanning from smaller cities (West Hollywood, CA and Cambridge, MA) to the nation’s most populous metropolitan regions (Los Angeles County and Greater Chicago). Earlier this year, Buro Happold received the American Planning Association’s Excellence Award for the Los Angeles Countywide Sustainability Plan, which featured an equity-centered approach to long-range sustainability planning. We are very pleased to present Huntington Beach with key team members from that award-winning effort. Leading the engagement process and quality of life aspects for our team is Raimi + Associates, a mission-driven planning, urban design and research firm with a statewide reputation for conducting authentic community engagement, incorporating health and equity into planning projects, promoting sustainable neighborhoods, and preparing plans that balance vision with market realities. Additionally, the transportation aspects of the plan will be led by Toole Design, a national team of planners, engineers, and landscape architects committed to designing and building spaces where people can move freely and intuitively, enjoying the experience and becoming a part of the community instead of just moving through it. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, our team’s diversity of professional and life experiences will allow us to deliver world-class solutions that are tailored to the Huntington Beach context—a skillset that will be particularly important in order to deliver a bold and transformative Sustainability Master Plan that establishes Huntington Beach as a leader amongst its peer cities, prioritizes high-impact sustainability initiatives, identifies key performance metrics, and establishes an implementation framework that ensures success. Thank you for your time and consideration of the following proposal, which summarizes our approach to this assignment, along with qualifications and resumes for the assembled team. We welcome the chance to further discuss our proposal. Feel free to contact me directly with any questions at chris.rhie@burohappold.com or 310-912-1002.

Starting from the earliest planning stages and working all the way through project completion, we consider safety, community context, environmental impacts, and urban design to create functional, inviting public spaces for all. Our project experience includes planning for parks and open spaces, recreational trails, greenways, sidewalks and walkways, streetscapes and Complete Streets, bicycle facilities, interpretive and wayfinding signage, landscape amenities, and sustainable project elements such as bioretention and permeable surfaces. We use a multidisciplinary approach that integrates planning, engineering, landscape architecture, ecological studies, environmental permitting, and public art. Our master and site planning experience includes: • Feasibility and due-diligence studies: Investigation and analysis of potential improvements, identification of initial and long- term costs, and feasibility of implementation. • Master planning: Forward-thinking solutions that thoroughly detail agreed-on project improvements and provide workable implementation strategies. • Site planning and preliminary design: Combining creative thinking with a thorough understanding of the project goals and program, site opportunities and constraints, permitting requirements, available funding, and public expectations. Toole Design frequently uses Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to conduct spatial analysis and communicate information. Toole Design routinely develop data sets, or build upon existing data sets, using data collected in the field or from secondary sources. We ensure that our analyses are context-sensitive, accounting for community elements such as land use, crash, topography, transit, and roadway characteristics to inform demand at network-based distances appropriate for walking and bicycling.

The Metropolitan Council Climate Action and Resilience Plan Twin Cities, MN Images © The Metropolitan Council Bolstering Regional Efforts to Mitigate and Adapt to the Impacts of Climate Change The Metropolitan Council recently selected Buro Happold to support the creation of their Climate Action Plan to respond to and plan for an increase in climate-related threats in the Twin Cities metropolitan region. As the regional planning agency and designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for 181 cities and townships and seven counties in the Twin Cities region, with more than half the state’s population, the Council is uniquely situated to bolster regional efforts to mitigate and adapt to the impacts of climate change. The Council is positioned to leverage economies of scale and add value through transboundary coordination and collaboration on climate change issues. With the Climate Action Plan, the Council is looking for pathways to dramatically reduce operational GHG emissions, leverage existing programs and policies, and develop new strategies to decarbonize enterprise operations and enhance regional planning. Buro Happold, the Council, and a team of subconsultants will focus on finding solutions for combating climate change and preparing for its impacts on infrastructure, operations, and planning. Buro Happold has assembled a uniquely qualified team to support the Council in expanding and tracking operational climate action and resilience commitments. Though the plan is focused on the short term, it will outline policies that will shape future planning efforts while responding to the local social, political, and environmental setting. Ultimately, the plan will coordinate the Council’s existing internal efforts and planning processes, ensuring a cohesive plan that can guide regional systems toward a more resilient future. The plan will set a path forward to adapt to challenges and improve the resilience of its built infrastructure while centering equity in policy development and action planning.

Building off of the Sustainability Plan, the Green Guidelines provide technical support for implementing actions while the Sustainability Implementation Plan provides resources and discrete steps for successful implementation of actions. Battery Park City has a long history of environmental leadership, building its status as a model for sustainable mixed-use urban development. Battery Park City is managed by the Battery Park City Authority (BPCA) and stretches 36 acres with over 22 million square feet of built area. The neighborhood is well-known for its environmental building standards and expansive waterfront parks and recreational areas. In 2019, the BPCA Board of Directors passed a resolution to develop a 10- year sustainability plan that would build momentum and put Battery Park City on a path towards carbon neutrality by 2050. In addition to internal goals, New York City’s Local Law 97 posed a challenge for buildings in Battery Park City to reduce their operational carbon emissions by 2030. These two challenges created a great opportunity for BPCA to pool together resources and develop a clear, actionable plan for the next ten years. Buro Happold and a team of specialist consultants were selected to work with BPCA to develop that plan through three documents: the Sustainability Plan, the Green Guidelines, and the Sustainability Implementation Plan. The Sustainability Plan provides a vision for sustainability at Battery Park City and outlines a set of strategies, targets, supporting milestones, and actions for delivering meaningful change in the neighborhood. Buro Happold completed an in-depth analysis to investigate existing conditions and understand sustainability initiatives and practices already well- engrained at Battery Park City. Further, community engagement was a tenet of the planning process to ensure that the contents of the plan resonated with BPCA staff and the wider community.

The Woolsey Fire caused devastation and destruction when it stormed through communities in 2018. In turn, the Malibu Foundation led an effort to develop a regional climate vulnerability assessment and resilience plan for the Santa Monica Mountains region. The Malibu Foundation envisioned an actionable resilience plan that centered the needs of the region’s most vulnerable residents and communities. Buro Happold provided technical support to the Malibu Foundation in developing the Santa Monica Mountains Resilience Plan. Services included conducting a geospatial analysis and providing strategic advice to the project team. A climate vulnerability assessment was a foundational building block for understanding projected climate change, and the potential impacts on different communities, populations, and infrastructure. Buro Happold provided guidance on conducting a climate vulnerability assessment and supported local student groups who led some of the climate vulnerability research and analysis. To inform the assessment, Buro Happold developed maps for the project team that illustrated the climate projections and potential vulnerabilities. Having led the consultant team for the Los Angeles County Climate Vulnerability Assessment, which was released in October 2021, Buro Happold also helped to ensure alignment between these efforts. The climate vulnerability assessment, along with outreach led by the Malibu Foundation, informed the community-based resilience plan. Buro Happold served as a reviewer of the drafts and provided guidance on resilience action.

The client envisioned the development of an actionable climate plan that centered the needs of the city’s most vulnerable residents and contributed towards a more equitable and greener West Hollywood. The City tapped the Buro Happold team for the effort specifically for the firm’s track record in equitable and intersectional climate action planning. This was particularly meaningful as the project coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic and Black Lives Matter racial justice movement. Working with partnering firms Pueblo Planning and Inner and Outer Engagement, the team enacted a comprehensive outreach strategy that included community conversations with specific populations that are affected first and worst by climate change, including urban indigenous people, older adults, low wealth families with children, people with disabilities, people experiencing houselessness and previously unhoused individuals, and monolingual Russian and Spanish speaking populations. Insights from the community conversations revealed four key themes intersecting with climate change: social justice, housing security, public health, and food access. The plan addresses each of these equity themes by describing both existing programs and policies, and the ways that WeHo Climate Action addresses them. Buro Happold’s climate experts also reviewed existing policies, completed a vulnerability assessment, completed a GHG emissions inventory and future emissions projections, and identified gap-filling actions based on established and emerging best practices. All of which resulted in a set of ambitious GHG targets and strategies designed to ensure West Hollywood achieves carbon neutrality by mid-century, while preparing for the impacts of its changing climate. Through the plan, a path forward is set for adapting the City to address the climate crisis and improve the resilience of the City’s infrastructure and social structure.

As the climate changes in coastal Orange County, the city is simultaneously facing continued growth: its population is projected to increase to 207,100 people, and employment to 87,000 jobs, by 2040.1 The policy decisions and public investments made - or not made - in the coming years will have a lasting impact on Huntington Beach’s iconic natural resources, its local economy, and the quality of life for its residents. A Sustainability Master Plan (SMP) that can be meaningfully adopted and implemented by City staff will be necessary to realize a sustainable, safe, and equitable future Sustainability and the Climate Crisis Sustainability is often defined as the capacity to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Anthropogenic climate change remains the most pressing threat to achieving sustainability; our extractive relationship with the environment has generated excessive greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which have substantially contributed to global heating and large-scale changes in weather patterns. As global emissions continue to rise, the impacts of climate change will intensify, thereby increasing the risks that people and ecosystems will face in the future. Sea level rise, coastal erosion, flooding, ocean acidification, biodiversity loss, and urban heat are just some of the impacts that may be felt in Huntington Beach. We must take swift and decisive action to reduce our emissions and better prepare for the changing climate. Climate change is inherently unjust, with impacts that are felt “first and worst” by communities that have historically been marginalized and face compounding challenges of poverty, housing and food insecurity, exposure to environmental pollution, and/or systemic racism. Therefore, it is critical to understand specific local risks, vulnerabilities, and needs, and then tailor climate transition initiatives accordingly, so that they contribute to a Just and Equitable Transition. Huntington Beach’s Climate, Sustainability, and Equity Challenges The coastal community of Huntington Beach was originally incorporated in 1909, named after the railroad magnate and real estate developer that accelerated the city’s initial growth. Oil reserves were discovered in the 1920s — the largest California oil deposit found at that time. Oil derricks were quickly erected across the area, earning Huntington Beach the nickname, “Oil City.” The city’s population grew dramatically during the oil boom, and this growth continued through the 1960s. During this time, Huntington Beach was one of the fastest growing cities in the United States. The rise in demand shifted the City’s land use priorities away from oil drilling to housing production. New residents were drawn to Project Understanding the city for its warm climate, beautiful beaches, and family-friendly neighborhoods. The simultaneous rise of surf culture cemented a new identity for Huntington Beach: Surf City USA. Projected shocks and stresses over the next century create challenges for Huntington Beach’s environment, economy, and the broader community. Remaining oil drilling infrastructure in Huntington Beach and surrounding areas increases the risk of spills, which can cause irreparable damage to local ecological systems. An estimated 144,000 gallons of crude oil leaked during the October 2021 spill, resulting in beach closures along the coast.2 Sea level rise and coastal erosion threaten coastal homes, businesses, and community assets; up to two-thirds of beaches across Southern California may be completely eroded by 2100.3 This destruction will have cascading effects across the city’s economy, severely impacting the recreation and tourism industries. Urban heat looms large as an invisible but potent threat; Orange County is projected to experience 46.6 days above 90°F by mid-century.4 Extreme heat can cause service disruptions, damage infrastructure, constrain water resources, and pose health risks to children, older adults, and those with preexisting health conditions. The city’s age profile is also shifting; the population of young adults (25-44 years) is decreasing, while middle-aged (45-65 years) and older adults (65+) are increasing.5 Older adults are particularly vulnerable to climate hazards, due to decreased mobility, increased sensitivity to environmental conditions, and constrained access to resources. Huntington Beach must take decisive action today to ensure future generations are able to enjoy and benefit from its natural resources, economic opportunities, and community assets. 1SCAG. (2016).

ORANGE COUNTY, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA | IMAGE © TRACEROUDA Project Understanding and Proposed Approach 125 44 CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH 45RESEARCH, ANALYSIS AND CONSULTING SERVICES SUSTAINABILITY PLAN Huntington Beach’s Progress to Date The City of Huntington Beach has already demonstrated a strong commitment to sustainability. In October 2017, the City updated its General Plan, including elements for Environmental Resources and Conservation and Natural and Environmental Hazards. While these updates touch on the City’s Open Space Plan, conservation and recreational spaces, the Environmental Resources and Conservation elements highlights the city’s greenhouse gas emissions reductions program and includes an inventory of the City’s emissions and energy use. That same year, the City was recognized for its advancements of solar energy, receiving a Gold Status award from SolSmart. In 2020, the City adopted an Urban Water Management Plan and a Water Shortage Contingency Plan to address the city’s water resource use and supply. More recently, the City Council recently voted to join the Orange County Power Authority (OCPA), a critical step towards the use and proliferation of clean, renewable energy. The City should also be commended for its participation in the Orange County Recycling Market Development Zone, as well as its Sustainable Business Certification Program, as other markers of the City’s progress on sustainability issues. What Needs to Happen Next Achieving a sustainable future for Huntington Beach across the three pillars of environment, equity, and economy is a transformational effort that requires a sustainability framework to coordinate efforts across City staff, community stakeholders, and regional partners. To develop this comprehensive strategy, the City of Huntington Beach seeks a consultant team that can act as thought partners in the development of a sustainability master plan that will: • Increase the City’s capacity to address sustainability issues, as well as to obtain and utilize competitive funding toward those issues; • Build internal and external tools to continuously evaluate the progress and success of sustainability strategies; • Be sensitive to the city’s unique history, climate, economy, and community; • Develop a data-driven sustainability strategy for City operations, complemented by local scientific knowledge, community input, and municipal expertise; • Integrate equitable sustainability strategies to address environmental and socioeconomic inequities; • Engage the public, particularly those affected “first-and-worst” by climate change and environmental pollution, in the development and implementation of sustainability initiatives; and • Avoid unintended and discriminatory consequences, such as displacement, that disproportionately affects low-income and vulnerable communities. To achieve these goals, the Buro Happold Team is proposing a collaborative sustainability planning process that is informed by robust data analysis, effective engagement, international best practices, and a realistic understanding of the challenges to action implementation. Overview The Buro Happold Team (the “Team”) looks forward to being a strategic and technical partner to the City of Huntington Beach (the “City”), working hand-in-glove to deliver an actionable Sustainability Master Plan that reflects not only the known environmental realities of the City, but also its culture, vibrance, and community needs. To achieve this vision, the Team has developed an approach that ensures strong project management and deliverables that incorporate data- driven recommendations, community knowledge and best practices, and a realistic understanding of what it takes to develop, adopt, and implement a city-wide Sustainability Master Plan. Our team firmly believes that equity and well-being must be at the center of any sustainability or climate-oriented plan; those who are most impacted must be engaged in defining solutions. And any proposed solution must be vetted so as to not negatively burden or affect the health, livelihood, and safety of those that these plans are meant to help. The various benefits, burdens, risks, and opportunities that our communities face will shift over time, so the strategies and actions put forth in any plan must also meaningfully advance the ability of all populations to not only adapt to a changing world, but to also be resilient and thrive in the face of future challenges. Given the complexity of this project, we anticipate and welcome further iteration and refinement. If selected, the Team will work with the City to finalize a clear and detailed project plan, aligning with key milestones. This will include a clear project schedule and communication approach. With these strong management procedures and agreed-upon methodologies, the Buro Happold Team will ensure the process: • is organized and instills confidence in the project team - resulting in greater buy-in and support, • is data-driven and grounded in today’s physical, environmental, political, regulatory, social, and financial realities, • integrates existing City efforts with regional, statewide, national, and international best practices, • is inclusive and engages stakeholders throughout the planning process, • provides adequate time for review and comment by City staff, agencies, and other key stakeholders, and • delivers a realistic, actionable, and innovative plan for community engagement and implementation. Work Plan The Team is proposing a Scope of Services based on our experience delivering sustainability plans for municipalities across Southern California and the United States. Task 1: Project Management Buro Happold will set a strong project foundation, laying out clear and defined project management processes to ensure that the City’s objectives are met and that the entire Plan development effort occurs in an efficient and timely manner. Following these guidelines and the early input from the City and its stakeholders, Buro Happold will develop clear, deliverable timeframes and project milestones, set quality parameters for planning outputs, and create well-defined communication and information management processes. 1.1 Project initiation In order to set the foundation for a successful project, Buro Happold will facilitate a kick-off meeting to clarify project objectives and scope, define roles and responsibilities, and identify potential challenges to the project as well as key stakeholder groups. More specifically, during this meeting, the City and the Team will: • discuss the City’s vision, aim, and objectives; • review the approach and methodology in light of any new project information (including timescales); • confirm work schedule, milestones, and deliverables, including progress meetings and reporting within the project team and with stakeholders; • discuss format, scheduling, logistics and recommendations for the Sustainability Master Plan deliverables; and • identify key contacts in regional or municipal government agencies, and key stakeholders to engage in the project, including existing project team contacts. The Team will also issue an information request in advance of the kick-off meeting to ensure that the Team is working with the most comprehensive and up-to-date information available, and will confirm all data and documents to be reviewed in Task 3 (Data Collection and Analysis). Weekly or biweekly project management calls or meetings will be used to coordinate for each of the tasks and deliverables. At the close of each month of the project, Buro Happold will compile a status report along with the invoice to be delivered to the City. 1.2 Project staff and City departments engagement To facilitate information exchange, vet strategies, and generate buy-in for implementation, the Team will routinely engage with staff from City departments throughout the project. We recommend this engagement to take place at two points: first, a half-day kickoff session to welcome department leaders and facilitate thematic roundtable discussions; and second, a presentation midway through the project to communicate findings from the assessment phase (Task 3) and facilitate a discussion around sustainability strategies that could be adopted in Huntington Beach, as well as their associated implementation considerations. We also offer one-on-one meetings with department staff to review sustainability recommendations. Approach and Preliminary Work Plan 126 46 CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH 47RESEARCH, ANALYSIS AND CONSULTING SERVICES SUSTAINABILITY PLAN Task 2. Stakeholder and Community Engagement In our experience, the approach to stakeholder and community engagement can make or break the success of a sustainability plan. Historically, many local governments have sought to simply inform stakeholders of decisions that were already made - leading to feelings of mistrust at best, and the realization of unintended consequences at worst. Our approach is to move from community engagement to ownership, taking the necessary steps to provide an open, inclusive, and transparent process. 2.1 Develop Community Engagement Plan The Community Engagement Plan will outline how the Team will develop relationships and directly involve community leaders and groups from across the City, as well as partners from other local governments, state entities, councils of governments, transit agencies, health agencies, air and water districts, businesses, landowners, the public, environmental groups, and underrepresented communities. The Community Engagement Plan will communicate how the stakeholder engagement process will be managed and how it will encourage alignment with City goals, authentic participation, community interaction, and the development of actionable strategies. We will work with the City to identify communities, community- based organizations, and other stakeholders to engage toward the development of the Plan. Examples include the Surfrider Foundation, the Orange County Coastkeeper, the Southern California Marine Institute, Save Our Beach, Amigos de Bolsa Chica, Ocean Defenders Alliance, and Huntington Beach Tree Society. 2.2 Conduct community engagement efforts Based on Huntington Beach’s specifications for stakeholder engagement, outreach will be conducted with targeted entities and communities in the form of individual meetings, virtual community workshops, office hours, community surveys, and if in-person events are possible, 2-3 pop-up engagements at community events such as farmers markets, festivals, or in locations with high levels of foot traffic such as the pier or downtown area. The purpose of the pop- ups is to provide an informal and accessible way for community members to learn about and contribute to shaping the SMP project goals and actions. R+A will prepare the outreach materials and R+A staff will be present for the various outreach efforts to engage with the community and serve as facilitators. These groups will represent key issues to be addressed in the Sustainability Master Plan, as well as other geographic, socioeconomic, or interest-oriented distinctions within the City. These meetings will be used to solicit feedback on all sustainability topics prioritized by the County. The Buro Happold team recognizes that it is necessary to be active in reaching out to affected, and especially underserved, communities in order to ensure inclusiveness and buy-in. As such, the community engagement effort will include an emphasis on equity, public education, interactive workshops, and reaching diverse communities and sectors. 2.2.1 Outreach Activities To meet the public outreach goals stated above, the project team will reach out to targeted stakeholder groups throughout the City using a variety of activities to engage and inform the community as described below. Individual Meetings Sub-consultant partner Raimi + Associates (R+A), with help from Huntington Beach City Staff, will identify relevant stakeholders to engage throughout the SMP process. The project team will conduct interviews with key stakeholders related to energy, water, resource management, transportation, economic development, open space management, youth advocacy, business interests, etc). R+A will conduct meetings during the project-discovery phase. The project team will help prepare discussion questions for these meetings and participate in up to five one-hour meetings. The project team will compile notes and synthesize meeting outcomes. Virtual Community Workshops The project team will host two virtual community workshops to inform the community, vet key components of the Plan, and showcase the final SMP. R+A will use various Zoom tools including the presentation of slides and other relevant materials, chat, polling, and break out groups. Meetings will be recorded. Input gathered from the engagement will be summarized by R+A to identify key issues and cross cutting themes, preferences for future educational topics, and opportunities to adjust the approach to future plan engagement efforts and work tasks. The project team will prepare materials and activities for the workshops. City staff will help with outreach and coordination of meeting logistics. The project team will participate in the workshops, facilitate break out groups if needed, and be responsible for synthesizing workshop outcomes. The Buro Happold team will develop the agendas, facilitate the meetings, and lead discussions and other interactive activities with smaller groups. They will also work closely with community- based organizations to accomplish these tasks. Notetakers will document all comments at the meetings and provide written summaries into a Stakeholder Feedback Matrix. The Team will also provide opportunities for stakeholders to give written comments at the outreach meetings. They will collect these written comments and add them to the Feedback Matrix. The findings of the stakeholder engagement process will fold into the Message Development and Communications Strategy (Task 6) for the plan. Online Office Hours To meet with community members at times and locations convenient for everyone, R+A will conduct virtual office hours. Office hours can be scheduled over 2-3 weeks in advance. Accessible materials based on the previous community workshop will be prepared for office hours. The project team will brainstorm ideas, prepare materials, and discuss strategies for deploying and summarizing findings from the office hours. The project team will prepare materials and activities for the workshops. City staff will help with outreach and coordination of meeting logistics. The project team will participate in the workshops, facilitate break out groups if needed, and be responsible for synthesizing workshop outcomes. Community Survey The project team will prepare and administer two community surveys. The surveys will provide a way for the broader public to share their perspectives on important issues, priorities, and recommended strategies. The intent is to inform the stakeholder meetings and workshops. Prior to the release of the survey, the City will publicize the event and survey via email, press releases, community newsletters, social media and other means. In light of the very real potential for the need to modify engagement activities due to the COVID-19 pandemic, specific strategies tailored to different communities will be created in close collaboration with these community partners, which may include activities like door-to-door canvassing, phone calls, connections with individuals via WhatsApp and other platforms, etc., in lieu of convening people at larger, in-person events. As such, this stakeholder outreach process will be adaptable. The Team will summarize each engagement and use this information to communicate updates to the City and to inform both analyses and strategy development for the Sustainability Master Plan. We will also use stakeholder feedback to invite new participants as appropriate and incorporate their input into the SMP. 127 48 CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH 49RESEARCH, ANALYSIS AND CONSULTING SERVICES SUSTAINABILITY PLAN 3.1 Evaluate Existing Measures, Plans, And Programs For this task, the Team will conduct a thorough review of existing conditions, datasets, and additional information provided by the City of Huntington Beach. The results of the review will shed light on existing initiatives and potential future measures to mitigate environmental, resource, and climate impacts and risks. This information will also be important in the completion of each categorical analysis performed under Task 3.4. To inform the planning process, the Team will also summarize successful precedents in sustainability master planning. Task 3. Data Collection and Analysis To both consolidate material into digestible categories and to enable the City of Huntington Beach to benchmark its efforts against those of peer cities across the nation, our Team recommends consolidating the requested subject areas under the LEED for Cities and Communities framework, which measures performance across five categories (with integrated design prerequisites): energy, water, waste, transportation, and quality of life. The table below identifies how the requested focus areas would be consolidated under these five categories: LEED for Cities and Communities Category Huntington Beach SMP Focus Areas (from RFP) Energy Energy; Climate Water Water Waste Resource Recovery and Waste Management Transportation Land Use and Transportation Quality of Life Air Quality; Recreation; Public Health and Well-Being; Economy and Workforce Development; Housing Integrated Design Prereq: Ecological Assessment Open Space, Habitat, and Biodiversity About LEED for Cities and Communities LEED for Cities and Communities helps local leaders create responsible, sustainable and specific plans for natural systems, energy, water , waste, transportation and many other factors that contribute to quality of life. The LEED framework encompasses social, economic and environmental performance indicators and strategies with a clear, data- driven means of benchmarking and communicating progress. The program is aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and is influenced by the U.S. Green Building Council’s engagement with hundreds of cities and communities around the globe. Team members Walker Wells and Chris Rhie serve together on the LEED for Cities and Communities working group, with Walker serving as Chair and Chris leading the Energy and Emissions Subgroup. Other Southern California municipalities which are using LEED for Cities and Communities to communicate continuous performance include the Cities of Costa Mesa, Long Beach, Rancho Cucamonga, Riverside, Santa Monica, West Hollywood, and the County of San Diego. This proposal does not include nor require certification under the LEED for Cities and Communities program, but rather uses it as a framework to evaluate sustainability performance. Should the City be interested in pursuing certification during or after the development of the SMP, the Buro Happold Team can assist in that process. The data collected under this category would need to be sufficient to develop both community-scale and municipal emissions inventories for the City of Huntington Beach. On the community side, this includes stationary energy emissions (i.e., residential and non-residential gas and electricity), transportation emissions (i.e., passenger vehicles, trucks, buses, etc.), product use (i.e., residential and commercial use refrigerants), waste and wastewater emissions (i.e., landfills, composting, wastewater treatment), urban tree carbon sequestration, and other scope 3 emissions as available (i.e., water treatment). On the municipal side, this includes emissions from buildings and facilities (electricity, natural gas, streetlights and traffic signals, EV charging), vehicle fleet emissions (i.e., municipal vehicle fleet, city-operated public transit), and other scope 3 emissions as available (i.e., employee commutes, employee generated waste, water consumption). 3.3.2 Water Under the Water category, the Team would primarily need to collect data for domestic water consumption. We anticipate that most, if not all, water supplied to the City of Huntington Beach is provided by its own water utility through the City’s Utilities Division; we expect to use its data to understand both sources and consumptive water use. We expect that some data will have been collected for, and thus could be drawn from, Huntington Beach’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan, which details historical and current water use as well as use projections and losses. Additional insights regarding future water supply and use can be drawn from the City’s 2020 Water Shortage Contingency Plan, which includes pertinent information on water supply reliability, customer demand, and infrastructure. 3.3.3 Waste Under the Waste category, the Team will collect data sufficient for calculating municipal solid waste generated (amount per year per person) and municipal solid waste diverted from landfill (% of total amount collected). Calculations for waste generation and waste diversion will be performed to reflect CalRecycle guidelines and state legislation. Data needs include measurements for waste sent to landfill, recyclable waste, organics and greenwaste, and other forms of waste diversion (i.e., reuse, prevention). We anticipate most of this data can be obtained directly from the City and its haulers. Where data is unavailable, appropriate assumptions will be applied in line with best practice. The Team will also research possible funding opportunities that align with anticipated sustainability and climate measures for the Sustainability Master Plan, including various federal, regional, and state funding sources such as CDBG-DR, California Strategic Growth Council Urban Greening or Climate Adaptation and Resilience Planning grants, and green bonds. Findings from this task will be summarized into a memorandum, which will inform the development of the Sustainability Master Plan and shared with City staff during a recap meeting. 3.2 Confirm analysis framework and data needs with City staff The Buro Happold Team will work with City staff to evaluate and select the appropriate framework (or combination of frameworks) to set organizational language, inform prioritization criteria, and guide the outline and content for the SMP. This evaluation will include the frameworks utilized by peer municipalities such as Los Angeles County’s Sustainability Plan, as well as third-party frameworks such as LEED for Cities and Communities. 3.3 Data collection from City departments, partner agencies, and other sources Data collection will be completed with the support of City departments, partner agencies, and other sources to establish a baseline and understand historical trends for the requisite metrics. The ideal data are collected citywide, easily obtainable, quantifiable, updated on at least an annual basis, and are published by the city, relevant departments or agencies, local academic institutions or universities, or other non-profit organizations. Potential data sources are described for each of the proposed categories below. Emphasis will be placed on using and integrating existing data sources where possible. The Team expects to provide the City with a comprehensive data request at the kick-off meeting (Task 1) in order to meet project deadlines. Buro Happold will lead data collection and analysis around the categories of Energy, Water, Waste, and Transportation, and sub-consultant partner Raimi + Associates will lead for the Quality of Life category. 3.3.1 Energy (and Emissions) Under this category, the team would collect pertinent data for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that would be measured in tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per year per person, which would be categorized and aggregated in terms of both municipal emissions and community-wide emissions. Emissions can be measured and disaggregated based on the categorical delineations in the city’s 2017 General Plan Update, including by Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. 128 50 CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH 51RESEARCH, ANALYSIS AND CONSULTING SERVICES SUSTAINABILITY PLAN 3.3.4 Transportation The Transportation category, which will cover Land Use and Transportation for the City, will require data to calculate distance traveled in individual vehicles daily as measured in distance per day per person. We expect that some transportation data on the municipal side will be provided by the City directly or can be inferred based on available fuel or charging data (as available). Otherwise, data for this category will primarily be collected, inferred, or informed by the United States Census, the Highway Performance Monitoring System, the California Household Travel Survey, SCAG’s regional travel model, and other pertinent land use, mode shift, vehicle miles traveled (VMT), and transit use data as available from the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and Caltrans. 3.3.5 Quality of Life The Quality of Life category will cover multiple sub-categories, but will encompass many of the remaining focus areas for the City of Huntington Beach - including air quality; recreation; public health and well-being; economy and workforce development; and housing. Education Under the Education sub-category, the Team will evaluate the levels of population with (at least) a high school degree, as well as with (at least) a Bachelor’s degree - both measures as percentages of the population aged 25 or older. We will primarily collect this data from the most recent U.S. census. Equitability The Equitability sub-category measures median gross rent as a % of household income, as well as the city’s Gini coefficient - which will provide a measure of the distribution of income across the Huntington Beach population. Data sources will be the US Census, American Community Survey, and data from the US Department of Labor Statistics. Prosperity This section will examine the potential to increase economic security and wealth generation. R+A will work with the City to identify opportunities to support and cultivate green industries and jobs that produce goods and provide services that benefit the environment or that involve making production processes more environmentally friendly. Drawing from available datasets and the resources identified in the LEED for Cities rating system, R+A will examine to potential to: • Increase economic security, a cornerstone of community resilience and climate adaption; • Prioritize local hiring, small businesses, and living wage employment; • Invest in youth and historically marginalized communities to match City residents’ education resources with high- quality employment opportunities; and • Prioritize purchasing that advances environmental, social, and economic sustainability. Additional resources for analyzing the opportunities to increase prosperity in the economy and increase local workforce development included median household income and unemployment rate. These data will also primarily be collected from U.S. census databases. Health, Safety, and Well Being The Health & Safety category measures the Median Air Quality Index (AQI) of Huntington Beach, as well as the number of Air Quality Days Unhealthy for Sensitive groups. This data will be collected from the EPA’s AirData database and reports. In addition, this sub-category measures violent crime per capita per year, which can be collected from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the California Department of Justice. Qualitative measures related to well-being, including level of trust in institutions, sense of belonging to a larger community, ability to participate in and influence decisions, and a desire to engage in the future development of the City will also be collected through the community engagement efforts. Parks and Recreation The Quality of Life category also includes an assessment of community assets including parks and recreation facilities. Quantitative and qualitative analyses and measurements for this particular focus area will be performed and indicators will be discussed and agreed upon with the City prior to data collection. The team will build on the information and policies in the City’s Open Space and Conservations Elements. Established metrics for access of parks, such as within a quarter mile walk distance, will be established and applied to identify potential disparities among neighborhoods. 3.3.6 Integrative Process Under the LEED for Cities and Communities framework, an ecological assessment is a prerequisite under Integrated Design. The focus areas of open space, recreation, habitat, and biodiversity will be addressed under this prerequisite. Open Space, Habitat, Biodiversity This effort will identify the City’s environmental policies and programs that protect, enhance, and restore the diversity and size of ecosystems and habitats in and adjacent to the City. Open space is a critical component in addressing climate-related issues including increased heat, flood mitigation, habitat conservation, and carbon sequestration. An objective will be to identify the potential for connected network of parks, open spaces and trails between the City’s protected natural, cultural, historic, and scenic resources for recreation and to support ecological function including ground water recharge, microwater sheds, and aquatic and ocean resources. The team will build on the information and policies in the City’s Open Space and Conservations Elements. Unique species and areas of significant habitat that should be preserved, restored, or expanded will be identified using NatureServe data from the State Department of Fish and Wildlife. 3.4 Data normalization, analysis, and synthesis After all indicators have been agreed upon and available data has been collected, the Team will proceed with its review and analysis of the data. As is the case with many municipalities, the data collected will vary by quality, frequency of measurement, and spatiality. The Team will manipulate and clean datasets and normalize to a base year as agreed upon with the City so that the City can not only measure its progress, but also benchmark its performance against other cities in Orange County and across the region. All data limitations will be noted and identified, and the Team will assemble recommendations for future data gathering and monitoring to improve future analyses. 3.5 Confirm indicators and develop targets While our team recommends LEED for Cities and Communities as the primary framework of key performance indicators for the City of Huntington Beach, we will coordinate with the City prior to and throughout Task 3 to discuss and confirm indicators across all of the identified focus areas. We recognize that the City may prefer to select indicators that align with other City planning documents for consistency (i.e., the 2017 General Plan Update), so we welcome and prioritize conversations with the City to select the indicators that best enable the City to evaluate historic trends, establish baselines, and measure future progress. The data collection process may also inform and modify the selection of indicators, as useful indicators will rely upon easily obtainable, quantifiable, and reputable data (which may not always be available). Upon confirming the key performance indicators, the Team will review the data findings and develop an initial set of Targets based on the indicators. While the City may have specific preferences around the timeframe of goals and targets based on achievability, resources, and alignment with city plans and strategies, our aim will be to develop targets for the City’s approval that can be achieved within 5- to 10-year timeframes as well as by 2040 (in alignment with the community vision laid out in the City’s General Plan Update) and be successfully tracked and measured annually. 3.6 Data Summary and Indicator Draft and Summary Memo We will develop and deliver a Summary Memo that clearly documents the sources for all data, steps taken to clean the data, manipulations performed on the data, and any critical data gaps. The Memo will also include a description of the method(s) used to determine the recommended metrics and targets, and the suggested indicators for use in the City of Huntington Beach’s Sustainability Master Plan. It will conclude with recommendations to mitigate gaps or limitations with pertinent data. 129 52 CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH 53RESEARCH, ANALYSIS AND CONSULTING SERVICES SUSTAINABILITY PLAN Task 4. Prepare Sustainability Master Plan The Sustainability Master Plan will provide Huntington Beach with an opportunity to highlight and build upon successful efforts, communicate what the City plans to implement, and identify which new strategies are needed to meet and exceed the targets defined in this Plan. The Plan will include background information, as well as short-, medium-, and long-term strategies with accompanying actions for implementation. 4.1 Develop detailed Plan outline and structure The Buro Happold Team will revise and update all materials delivered to date, as appropriate, and use these as the basis for a Detailed Plan Outline. We anticipate that this Outline will be presented earlier in the project and be revised or tweaked throughout the course of the project to reflect the findings of the stakeholder engagement and data analysis tasks. Graphic designers on the Buro Happold Team will help create mockups of the print report to communicate the look and feel of the report in alignment with branding and style guidelines provided by the City. 4.2 Develop sustainability strategies to meet City targets The Buro Happold Team will work with the City of Huntington Beach to develop a Sustainability Master Plan that will serve as a strategic framework for measuring, planning, and improving the sustainability of the City and its practices, as well as for reducing the environmental and climate impacts on the Huntington Beach community - particularly those who may be most vulnerable. Building upon the identification of targets in Task 3, the Team will assist the City in developing a roadmap to direct local efforts to meet its sustainability goals. 4.3 Prepare an Implementation Plan Buro Happold will work with the City to develop an implementation plan that identifies lead City agencies, supporting City agencies, rough order-of-magnitude costs (and savings, where applicable), timeframes for initiation and completion, and potential funding sources that could be used to implement each recommended strategy. The team will also analyze current, past, and future staffing patterns within the City to determine the capacity to carry out the Sustainability Master Plan and estimate needs for additional resourcing. The Implementation Plan, including staffing needs, will be vetted with City staff. 4.4 Draft and Final Sustainability Master Plan The Team will assemble the outputs of the aforementioned tasks into a Draft Sustainability Master Plan by July 2022, which will describe the needs, impacts, actions, and costs needed for implementation. There will be opportunities for internal and external review and input on the organization, content, narrative, imagery, and graphics throughout this process. Notably, we are recommending a public review period between the Revised Draft and Final Draft phases for transparency - as well as an opportunity to engage the community and build momentum for the implementation of the Sustainability Master Plan. The Final Sustainability Master Plan will be completed by the end of 2022. Task 5. Performance Tracking and Dashboard In our experience, an effective Monitoring Tool is one that is organized and simple for ease-of-use and periodic data updates by multiple staff. The Buro Happold team has experience in developing dashboards for clients to track, measure, and communicate progress. Our team has created several visualization tools and dashboards for clients. The team will review the key performance indicators for each of the quantifiable mitigation and adaptation strategies and work with the City to develop a monitoring system. If needed, the Team can create a secure dashboard and a publicly accessible dashboard for security and quality management purposes. Task 6. Message Development and Communications Strategy 6.1 Message development To create an effective call to action around the Sustainability Master Plan that resonates with constituent audiences, it is critical to understand what messaging aligns with the needs, wants, and values of the decision makers and community members across the City of Huntington Beach. The Buro Happold team will build off of the stakeholder engagement outcomes in Task 2 to pinpoint: (1) effective cross-cultural messaging that appeals to diverse audiences; (2) what communication methods and channels used by the City are most effective and (3) the appropriate combination of communication channels, messaging, and timing to enhance reach for behavioral change and adoption. In developing and evaluating messaging for the City of Huntington Beach around its Sustainability Master Plan, the Team will consider at least the following questions: • How do constituent audiences perceive, think, and talk about the issues highlighted in the Sustainability Master Plan? • What are the potential benefits and/or emotional hot buttons that resonate most? • What language or words trigger positive or negative reactions? • How do constituent audiences consume daily information? • What are the most effective outreach channels and/or strategies to implement and gain traction? 6.2 Prepare communication materials After identifying the messaging for the Sustainability Master Plan in Task 6.1, the Team will proceed with preparing the communication materials for the City of Huntington Beach around the Sustainability Master Plan. These include messaging templates that are appropriate to different stages of the project and that can be disseminated through the City’s website, its social media accounts, or via e-mail to interested or involved constituents and stakeholders. The message materials will consist of: 1) a tag line such as “join us in shaping a sustainable future,” 2) a tweet-length narrative, 3) a narrative description of 1-2 paragraphs outlining the potential for community engagement or input, 4) links to relevant materials or the community survey, 5) two-three potential images that are either related to the plan (solar panels, water management, biking or walking, composting) or are reflective of sustainability actions in the City. The materials are expected to be used with social media posts on the City’s website, social media, and City Hall email blasts. The messaging materials will be prepared for review on behalf of City project management and marketing staff before it is delivered. Optional Additional Services • Cost-Benefit Analyses o The team will perform and incorporate cost benefit analyses to inform the prioritization of each strategy, and it will determine the staff resourcing needed to carry out the Plan by conducting desktop research on similar initiatives in peer cities. • Spanish translations, glossary of terms o If requested, our team can develop a bilingual document, with both English and Spanish versions, and can include a glossary of terms within the Plan. • Project website o To support the promotion and dissemination of the Sustainability Master Plan, the Team will assist City staff and IT professionals with the branding and development of a project website for the Sustainability Master Plan. A distinct site can be created with information about the Plan that can be updated to accommodate review periods and final publication, as well as link to the Monitoring Tool developed under Task 5. 130 Total Project Labor Price by Task and Firm Task Project Administration Stakeholder Engagement Data Collection and Analysis Prepare Sustainability Master Plan Performance Tracking and Dashboard Message Development and Communications Strategy Labor Total Additional Included Expenses Expense Engagement Participation Stipends Cost-Benefit Analysis and Prioritization Criteria Optional Services Expense Translation Services and Term Glossary Project Website Project Price Proposal Totals Expense Labor Additional Included Expenses Initial Proposed Price Optional Services All-In Proposed Price City of Huntington Beach Sustainability Master Plan Updated Price Proposal - March 2022 Buro Happold Raimi & Associates Toole Design Total $18,040 $26,000 $2,956 $46,996 $18,300 $4,500 $1,880 $24,680 $48,000 $10,380 $9,220 $67,600 $26,100 $19,820 $5,944 $51,864 $12,705 $0 $0 $12,705 $6,000 $9,700 $0 $15,700 $219,545 Provide gift cards or other minor compensation for community participation in SMP engagement $5,000 Expense Description Total $129,145 $70,400 $20,000 Expense Description Total Development of Cost-Benefit Analyses and Prioritization Criteria for all strategies identified $25,000 Create bilingual (English/Spanish) version of Sustainability Master Plan and bi- lingual supplement with accessible Glossary of Terms for readers $15,000 Assist with creation of branding and development of Sustainability Master Plan project website $27,000 Total $42,000 $291,545 $219,545 $30,000 $249,545 131 Hourly Rates By Firm and Position Firm and Team Members Buro Happold Chris Rhie Louis Spanias Sarah Smyth Sabrina Bornstein Kathleen Hetrick Eden Axelrad Raimi & Associates Walker Wells Jim Bergdoll Sami Taylor Paige Kruza Lilly Nie Toole Design Roger Pelayo Adam Vest Malia Schilling Labor Total $256.00 16 $4,096 $7,400 $24,000 Subject Matter Expert Project Staff $185.00 $125.00 40 192 City of Huntington Beach Sustainability Master Plan Updated Rate Summary - March 2022 Position Hourly Rate Hours Proposed Labor Cost 808 $129,145 Project Director $250.00 103 $25,750 Project Manager $150.00 204 $30,600 Project Staff $125.00 240 $30,000 Subject Matter Expert $250.00 51 $12,750 Subject Matter Expert $125.00 141 $17,625 Subject Matter Expert $180.00 69 $12,420 428 $70,400 Principal/Subject Matter Expert $250.00 56 $14,000 Subject Matter Expert $200.00 40 $8,000 Subject Matter Expert $170.00 100 $17,000 Subject Matter Expert 118 $20,000 1,354 $219,545 $126.00 74 $9,324 Subject Matter Expert $235.00 28 $6,580 Subject Matter Expert 132 www.burohappold.com Contact Christopher Rhie, Associate Principal 310-912-1002 chris.rhie@burohappold.com 133 City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street, Huntington Beach, CA 92648 File #:22-230 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION SUBMITTED TO:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY:Sean Joyce, Interim City Manager VIA:Ursula Luna-Reynosa, Director of Community Development PREPARED BY:Celeste Coggins, Administrative Analyst Subject: Approve and authorize execution of 3-year Professional Services Contracts in the amount of $850,000 for On-Call Environmental (CEQA) Services with Psomas, Michael Baker International, Environmental Science Associates, and LSA Associates Statement of Issue: The Community Development Department requires on-call environmental consulting services for as- needed support in preparing documents for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Financial Impact: An appropriation to the General Fund will be required when projects requiring CEQA review are confirmed through a task order. Each project will require a matching reimbursement agreement with a project applicant to fund the project at no cost to the City. Recommended Action: A) Approve and authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute $850,000 “Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Psomas, for On-Call Environmental (CEQA) Services;” and, B) Approve and authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute $850,000 “Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Michael Baker International, Inc., for On-Call Environmental (CEQA) Services;” and, C) Approve and authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute $850,000 “Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Environmental Science Associates, for On-Call Environmental (CEQA) Services;” and, D) Approve and authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute $850,000 “Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and LSA Associates, for On-Call Environmental City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™134 File #:22-230 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 (CEQA) Services.” Alternative Action(s): Do not authorize the contracts, and direct staff accordingly. Staff will not be able to utilize consultant services for these documents and direct staff to facilitate a different process for document preparation under CEQA. Analysis: On November 18, 2021,the City advertised a Request for Qualifications for On-Call Environmental (CEQA) Consulting Services. Proposals were requested and submitted in compliance with Chapter 3.03 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code. Twenty-one proposals were received for Environmental (CEQA) Consulting Services. In accordance with qualifications-based selected procurement, per the Federal “Brooks Act”, State SB 419, and the City of Huntington Beach Municipal Code Section 3.03 “Professional Services”, the Community Development Department established a review board. Proposals were then evaluated and ranked by the review board. The top four firms were selected according to overall ranking. CEQA review is required for all projects proposed by private applicants. For many planning applications, a project would be exempt from environmental review pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines. However, some projects require preparation of an environmental document such as a negative declaration or environmental impact report to comply with CEQA. These documents require technical studies on specific topics such as geology, hydrology, noise and air quality that require expert analysis from qualified professionals in their respective fields of study. Therefore, the Community Development Department contracts with professional consultants to assist with the preparation of CEQA documents. Preparation of a CEQA document typically adds significant time to the overall processing of a project. When an applicant submits a project, it takes approximately two months to begin CEQA document preparation to obtain proposals and execute a contract with a consultant. This can add two months to an already lengthy process. The four contracts recommended for approval are for on-call environmental (CEQA) services. By utilizing these services, the Community Development Department will be able to streamline the CEQA process for applicants and eliminate approximately two months of processing time from a project. The selected consultant will complete assignments as directed by staff through a proposal and confirmed by a task order. Each proposal will be prepared according to the CEQA needs for a specific project. Each task order issued will be matched with a reimbursement agreement with a project applicant that covers all expenses for the preparation of the CEQA document by the assigned consultant. The financial impact of these activities is net neutral due to the required reimbursement agreement with the project applicant. Preparation of a CEQA document can vary significantly. The cost to prepare a CEQA document can range from $50,000 to $500,000 depending on the type and scope of project submitted. Therefore these consultants were selected to meet the projected workload over the next three years with a City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 2 of 3 powered by Legistar™135 File #:22-230 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 these consultants were selected to meet the projected workload over the next three years with a contract limit of $850,000 each. The proposed contract amounts are a not-to-exceed amount for a three-year term with no guarantee of work. Environmental Status: Approval of professional services agreements, such as the subject professional service contracts and any reimbursement agreements, would not result in a potentially significantly physical impact on the environment. Furthermore, the requested actions do not constitute a “project” pursuant to section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act and no CEQA review is required. Strategic Plan Goal: Non Applicable - Administrative Item Attachment(s): 1. Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Psomas for On-Call Environmental (CEQA) Services. 2. Professional Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and Michael Baker International, Inc., for On-Call Environmental (CEQA) Services. 3.

City Council is requested to approve the grant award for 2022 and approve Amendment No. 1 to the City’s existing three-year contract with Waymakers for the continued management of the Program for services rendered through 2022. Financial Impact: To receive the Cal OES grant, the City must provide a match of $67,714, which has been budgeted in HBPD General Fund Account Number 10070203. The cost for the Program in 2022 is $270,857, with the grant award offsetting $203,143 in new revenue. A new grant fund will be established upon approval by City Council, and no additional appropriation of funds is necessary at this time. The Waymakers agreement is contingent upon receiving the Cal OES grant. Upon receipt, sufficient appropriations will be made available to fund the Waymakers contract into 2022. Recommended Action: A) Accept the grant between the State of California, Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) and the City of Huntington Beach; and, B) Assign authority to the Chief of Police as the official to execute and sign for the award and to City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™224 File #:22-233 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 approve amendments and extensions; and, C) Approve the appropriation and expenditure of $270,857, of which $203,143 is to be fully reimbursed by the grant from Cal OES. The remaining $67,714 will be funded from appropriations in the Police Department’s budget; and, D) Amend the Professional Services Listing to include provided domestic violence services; and , E) Approve and authorize “Amendment No. 1 to Agreement Between the City of Huntington Beach and Waymakers for Victim and Witness Assistance Services.” Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommendations, and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: The Police Department applied for and was awarded a Cal OES grant to prevent, investigate and prosecute crimes involving domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. The grant, along with city matching funds, provide for a Victim Advocate and two part-time domestic violence investigators. The Victim Advocate is contracted through Waymakers’ Victim Assistance Program and Interval House to assist victims and survivors to navigate legal processes and obtain critical services such as obtaining restraining orders, temporary housing placement and referrals to counseling and legal aid. The two part-time domestic violence investigators perform case follow-up and investigative work related to the domestic violence caseload. These investigators assist a full-time detective, allowing the police department to investigate domestic violence incidents in a timely manner, resulting in improved services to victims and a greater likelihood that future incidents will be prevented This collaboration has been in effect since 1998, and since the inception of the Violence Against Women Project the Advocate position, has been continuously funded through a series of grants. The grant also provides for a continued agreement with Interval House, offering priority shelter for domestic violence victims and their children from Huntington Beach on a 24-hour basis. The goal of the programs funded through the grant is to help heal families and thereby stop the cycle of violence. Without this grant, the current “wrap-around” model whereby victims receive services while the Advocate works closely with a Police Department investigator to form a cohesive team throughout the process would not be possible. The acceptance of the grant will pay for the collaboration involving the Police Department through December 31, 2022, and the cash match of $67,714 is included within the existing Police Department budget.

City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™309 File #:22-250 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 Analysis: On November 24, 2021, the City advertised a Request for Proposal (“RFP”) for on-call electrical inspection services. Proposals were requested and submitted in compliance with Chapter 3.03 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code. Two proposals were received for on-call electrical inspection services. In accordance with qualifications-based selected procurement per the Federal “Brooks Act,” State SB 419, and the City of Huntington Beach Municipal Code Section 3.03 “Professional Services,” the Public Works Department established a review board. Proposals were then evaluated and ranked by a review board established by the Public Works Department. The top two firms were selected to increase opportunity for competitive proposals for future projects from qualified on-call consultants.

These services have historically been utilized to supplement City staff to meet annual CIP goals, as an extension of staff, and/or to provide required expertise for unique projects. It is anticipated that these services will be required based on past years. Each project is evaluated on a case by case basis to determine if these as-needed contract services are necessary.

Upon approval by City Council, staff would submit the APR to the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR), as required under Section 65400 of the California Government Code. Until January 1, 2018, charter cities were exempt from preparing and submitting annual progress reports. However, the City continued to submit the report to be eligible for state funding programs, such as housing-related park funds. Staff has prepared the report utilizing the forms adopted by HCD in accordance with the California Code of Regulations. A copy of the report is provided as Attachment No. 1. Environmental Status: The Housing Element Annual Progress Report is exempt under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA guidelines, which exempts activities where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment.

(Cells with red markers) Government Code section 65400 requires that each city, county, or city and county, including charter cities, prepare an annual progress report (APR) on the status of the housing element of its general plan and progress in its implementation, using forms and definitions adopted by the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The following form is to be used for satisfying the reporting requirements of Government Code section 65400, subdivision (a)(2). These forms and instructions, originally adopted March 27, 2010, have been updated to incorporate new Housing Element APR requirements pursuant to Chapter 374, Statutes of 2017 (Assembly Bill 879); Chapter 366, Statutes of 2017 (Senate Bill 35), Chapter 664, Statutes of 2019 (Assembly Bill 1486), Chapter 159, Statues of 2019 (Assembly Bill 101), Chapter 661, Statutes of 2020 (Assembly Bill 1255), Chapter 15, and Statutes of 2020 (Assembly Bill 83). How to submit the Housing Element Annual Progress Report (APR) The APR must be submitted to the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) on or before April 1 of each year using the forms and tables specified by HCD. The APR provides information for the previous calendar year and must be submitted separately to both HCD and OPR (Gov. Code, § 65400.). There are two methods available for submitting APRs: 1. Online Annual Progress Reporting System - This allows jurisdictions to upload directly into HCD’s database, limiting the risk of errors. To use the online system, email APR@hcd.ca.gov, and request login information for your jurisdiction. Please note: Using the online system only provides the information to HCD. The APR must still be submitted to OPR. Their email address is opr.apr@opr.ca.gov. 2. Email - Jurisdictions complete the Excel APR forms and submit to HCD at APR@hcd.ca.gov and to OPR at opr.apr@opr.ca.gov. When using the email method, send the electronic version as an Excel workbook attachment. Do not send a scanned copy of the tables. In addition to submitting Housing Element APRs, jurisdictions must also submit General Plan Annual Progress Reports to both HCD and OPR. Please email these documents to APR@hcd.ca.gov and opr.apr@opr.ca.gov. NOTE: When submitting successor entity reporting data as required pursuant to California Health and Safety Code 34176.1, the data must be identified as an addendum to the APR and emailed to APR@hcd.ca.gov concurrently with the APR submittal. When using the online system, this report should be sent separately to the APR email box to satisfy the Government Code section 65400 reporting requirement.

TABLE A2 Annual Building Activity Report Summary – New Construction, Entitled, Permits and Completed Units Fields 1 through 15 Housing Development Information 378 This table requires information for very low, low, moderate and above moderate income housing affordability categories and for mixed-income projects. Include data on net new housing units and developments that have received any one of the following: • An entitlement • A building permit • A certificate of occupancy or other form of readiness that was issued during the reporting year. Please note: Only building permits are used for the purposes of determining progress towards RHNA (fields 7, 8 and 9 of this table, described below). New housing units : For the APR, “new housing unit” means housing units as defined by the Department of Finance for inclusion in the Department of Finance’s annual “E-5 City/County Population and Housing Estimates” report, which is the same as the census definition of a housing unit. Development activity spanning multiple years : It is highly likely that the same project will be reported in multiple years of APRs. For example, a project should be listed in three separate APRs if it is entitled in one year, receives the building permit next year, and the certificate of occupancy in the year following. In scenarios where development activity spans multiple years, the jurisdiction should only report activity that occurred within the reporting year. For example, if a project received building permits in 2018 , but received entitlements in 2017 , the 2018 APR should only report the building permit information (fields 7, 8 and 9), and not include entitlement information (fields 4, 5 and 6). Separate living quarters : A house, an apartment, a mobile home, a group of rooms, or a single room occupied as separate living quarters, or if vacant, intended for occupancy as separate living quarters. Separate living quarters are those in which the occupants live separately from any other individuals in the building and which have direct access from outside the building or through a common hall. For vacant units, the criteria of separateness and direct access are applied to the intended occupants whenever possible. Please note: Group quarters facilities, such dormitories, student houisng, bunkhouses, and barracks cannot be counted as housing units. Net new units: If a building is being demolished to build the new units, the APR should report net new units. For example, if 10 units are being demolished on a site to build a 100-unit building, the APR should report 100 new units and 10 units in the demolished/destroyed column. In the case of new construction where fewer units are being built than were there previously, do not report negative permits. To assist in reporting demolished/destroyed units, refer to section number 20 below (Table A2, column 20). All new unit information is to be listed in the following fields: Fields 1 through 3 – Project Identifier and Unit Types 1.

See Definitions section for “infill housing units” definition. Fields 16 through 18: Please note, if any units are reported as very-low, low, or moderate income in fields 4, 7 or 10 then information in fields 16, 17 and/or 18 must be completed to demonstrate affordability. In the absence of justification that the unit is affordable to a very- low, low, and moderate income household, the unit must be counted as above-moderate income. Fields 16 and 17 Housing with Financial Assistance and/or Deed Restrictions 380 For all housing units developed or approved with public financial assistance and/or have recorded affordability deed restriction or covenants, identify funding sources and/or mechanisms that enable units to be affordable. 16.

Please note, the last year of the 5th cycle will only contain units with permit dates that occurred before the end of the cycle. The first year of the 6th cycle will only contain units with permits that occurred on or after the beginning of the cycle. To assist jurisdictions in completing this form, HCD has pre-filled permit data as reported to HCD on prior APRs. Past unit information will auto-populate when the jurisdiction’s name in the general information section of the “Start Here” tab is entered. Current year permitted units will auto-populate from data reported in table A2. If permit activity for current year is inaccurate, jurisdictions should make adjustments on field number 7, Affordability by Household Income – Building Permits in table A2. 382 Please contact HCD at APR@hcd.ca.gov if data from previous years does not populate or if different than the information supplied in Table B. Any changes made by localities to previous years’ data in Table B will not update prior APR records maintained by HCD. Table B reports the number of units for which permits were issued to demonstrate progress in meeting the jurisdiction’s share of regional housing need for the planning period. 1. Regional Housing Needs Allocation by Income Level: Lists the jurisdiction’s assigned RHNA for the planning cycle by income group. This field will be auto-populated once the jurisdiction’s name is entered in the “Start Here” tab. 2. Year: Lists the building permit data for each year of the RHNA planning cycle beginning in the first year and ending with the data from the current reporting year which can be found in Table A2. 3. Total Units to Date (all years): Totals the number of units permitted in each income category. 4. Total Remaining RHNA by Income Level: This field uses the information from the “Total Units to Date” category and deducts the units by income category from the jurisdiction’s assigned RHNA number. Note: The total units remaining to meet the RHNA allocation is in the bottom right hand corner. TABLE C Sites Identified or Rezoned to Accommodate Shortfall Housing Need Please note: This table should only be filled out when a city or county identified an Unaccommodated Need of sites from the previous planning period Government Code section 65584.09, has Shortfall of Sites as identified in the housing element Government Code section 65583, subdivision (c)(1); or is identifying additional sites required by No Net Loss law pursuant to Government Code section 65863. The data in this inventory serves as an addendum to the housing element sites inventory. This table should not include rezoning for a specific project. 1. Project Identifier: Include the Assessor Parcel Number (APN) and street address. The project name and local jurisdiction tracking ID are optional. 2. Date of Rezone: If rezone was required, identify the date the rezone occurred. Enter date as month/day/year (e.g., 6/1/2018). 3. RHNA Shortfall by Household Income Category: For each development or site, list the number of units that are affordable to the following income levels (refer to Definitions section for more detail): • Very low-income households: 0-50% AMI • Low-income households: 50-80% AMI Note: rezoning is not required to accommodate moderate or above moderate RHNA shortfall. 4. Rezone Type: From the dropdown list, select one of the following for each project: • No Net Loss (Government Code section 65863): When a jurisdiction permits or causes its housing element sites inventory site capacity to be insufficient to meet its remaining unmet RHNA for lower and moderate-income households. In general, a jurisdiction must demonstrate sufficient capacity on existing sites or make available adequate sites within 180 days of there being insufficient sites to meet the remaining RHNA. • Unaccommodated Need (Government Code section 65584.09): When a jurisdiction failed to identify or make adequate sites available in the prior planning period to accommodate its RHNA by income category. Note: When this condition occurred, the housing element in the current planning period in most cases will have a program to make available adequate sites to address the unmet RHNA by income category in the first year of the planning period. • Shortfall of Sites (Government Code section 65583, subdivision (c)(1)): When a jurisdiction does not identify adequate sites to accommodate its RHNA by income category in the current planning period. Note: When this condition occurred, the housing element for the current planning period must have included a program to make available adequate sites to address the unmet RHNA by income category. For jurisdictions on an eight year planning period, the rezones must be complete within the first three years of the planning period. 5. Parcel Size (Acres): Enter the size of the parcel in acres. 6. General Plan Designation: Enter the new General Plan Land Use designation. If no change was made, enter the current designation. 7. Zoning: Enter the new zoning designation for the parcel.

Please note, motel, hotel, hostel rooms or other structures that are converted from non-residential to residential units pursuant to Government Code section 65583.1(c)(1)(D) are considered net-new housing units and must be reported in Table A2 and not reported in Table F. Units that Do Not Count Toward RHNA: The jurisdiction may list for informational purposes only, units that do not count toward RHNA but were substantially rehabilitated, acquired or preserved. Units that Count Toward RHNA: To enter units in this table as progress toward RHNA, please contact HCD at APR@hcd.ca.gov. HCD will provide a password to unlock the grey fields. In order to count units reported in this table as progress towards RHNA, the jurisdiction will need to provide information that demonstrate the units meet the standards set forth in Government Code section 65583.1, subdivision (c). These program requirements are summarized on the Alternative Adequate Sites Checklist. If HCD finds that the units meet the standards set forth in Government Code section 65583.1, subdivision (c) these units may credit up to 25 percent of the jurisdiction’s adequate sites requirement per income category. Table G Locally Owned Lands Included in the Housing Element Sites Inventory that have been sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of, pursuant to Government Code section 65400.1 Chapter 664, Statutes of 2019 (AB 1486) added to the Government code section 65400.1, which requires jurisdictions to include in this APR a listing of sites owned by the locality that were included in the housing element sites inventory and were sold, leased, or otherwise disposed of during the reporting year. The listing of sites must include the entity to whom the site was transferred, and the intended use of the site. Table H Locally Owned or Controlled Lands Declared Surplus Pursuant to Government Code section 54221, or Identified as Excess Pursuant to Government Code section 50569 Chapter 661, Statutes of 2019 (AB 1255) amended Government Code section 54230 to require cities and counties to create an inventory of surplus lands defined in subdivision (b) of Section 54221, and all lands in excess of its foreseeable needs, if any, identified pursuant to Section 50569, located in all urbanized areas and urban clusters, as designated by the United States Census Bureau, within the jurisdiction of the county or city that the county or city or any of its departments, agencies, or authorities owns or controls.

Summary of Entitlements, Building Permits and Certificates of Occupancy: These tables will auto-populate from Table A2. 386 Frequently Asked Questions Can I leave a row blank?Yes, you may leave blank rows in between rows that have information. However, you may not leave more than 10 rows in a row blank in between rows with information. How do I delete rows?Click on a cell in the row(s) and type Ctrl-d. Note: Macros must be enabled Why are the rows not summing correctly?The summary tab and sum rows only include activities that occurred during the reporting year, according to the year entered in the "Start Here" tab. Why are some cells highlighted yellow or green? Yellow Cells: Required cells for each row become highlighted yellow once any cell in the row contains a character. The affordability descriptions become highlighted and required once any lower or moderate income units are entered into the form. Green Cells: Cells highlighted green are where you indicate the number of units by affordability. This is required for any project in Table A. This is also required for the applicable sections (completed entitlement, issued building permits, issued certificates of occupancy) of Table A2. For example, if a project in Table A2 was issued a building permit, but not an entitlement or certificate of occupancy during the reporting year, you would enter the unit count in one of the green cells in the building permit section only. You may leave the other sections blank even though they are highlighted green, since they wouldn't apply to this example. Once a value is entered into this range, the range will no longer be highlighted green. Why are the date cells highlighted red? Cells can be highlighted red for two reasons: Date cells: Sometimes, dates that are copied and pasted into this form are formatted as text. When pasting dates into the form please paste with the "match destination formatting" option. If the date cells are still highlighted red, they contain text. These must be converted to dates. To do so, open a blank workbook and paste in the dates that are formatted as text. In an adjacent column, enter the function =DATEVALUE and refer the function to the cell with date formatted as text. This will result in a 5-digit number. Copy and paste these 5-digit numbers back into the APR form, then change the format of the cells to "Short Date" (i.e., 3/4/2012). Text cells: Cells can also be highlighted red if the length of the text entered into the cell exceeds the character limit. Can the same project be included in both Table A and Table A2?Yes. Table A tracks all applications for residential development that were received and deemed complete during the reporting year. Table A2 tracks all entitlements, building permits, and certificates of occupancy for residential development that were issued in the reporting year. If a project was applied for and received entitlements, building permits, and/or certificates of occupancy during the reporting year, that project would be listed in both Table A and Table A2. What if I have nothing to report?At minimum, the "Start Here" tab and Table D must be completed. If you have nothing to report in any of the other tables, please leave them blank, do NOT put N/A or something similar. How do I correct or update the values in Table B?Table B contains data HCD has received from prior APR submittals as of October 6, 2020. If the numbers do not match your records, please contact HCD. Do I need to take the form to my Council or Board prior to submitting the APR? Government Code section 65400 requires the planning agency to provide this report to the legislative body (i.e. local Council or Board), HCD, and OPR by April 1 of each year. The statute does not specify in which order they be provided, and HCD does not require the report to be submitted to the legislative body prior to submitting it to HCD. Can I use this form for a prior year? You can use this form for 2018 -2020. Make sure to change the reporting year in row 5 of the "Start Here" tab. Table G is not required for 2018. Table H and LEAP are not required for 2018-2019. For the years 2017 and prior, you must use the old version of the APR. Please contact HCD at apr@hcd.ca.gov to obtain. Does submitting the Housing Element APR fulfill the requirements of submitting a General Plan APR?No. Government Code section 65400 requires jurisdictions to also submit a General Plan Annual Progress Report to OPR and HCD. These can be emailed to opr.apr@hcd.ca.gov and APR@hcd.ca.gov 387 Annual Progress Report January 2020 Jurisidiction Name Reporting Calendar Year First Name Last Name Title Email Phone Street Address City Zipcode v 2_15_2022 Optional: Click here to import last year's data.

The City's outreach efforts have grown to include a Homeless Task Force (with two full-time officers, 1 program coordinator, and up to 4 case managers) and construction of the 174 bed Navigation Center that provides shelter for eligible people experiencing homelessness with ties to Huntington Beach. This approach includes weekly outreach to engage homeless individuals and determine their needs, reuniting individuals with family members, and working within the County's Coordinated Entry System to match people with housing opportunities, assisting in eviction prevention. Since 2015, the City’s efforts have helped more than 275 individuals obtain permanent shelter and assisted more than 70 individuals reconnect with their families. Project Self Sufficiency Assist 90 households annually 2013-2021 Effective March 1, 2018, the Project Self Sufficiency program began operating independently as a nonprofit program, separate from the City of Huntington Beach. Although the City still provides some funding to the program, it now assist families in communities throughout the County including Huntington Beach. 402 Green Building and Sustainability Provide education/outreach to residents and development community on new Green Building Program.

Analysis: On March 16, 2022, the IRC reviewed and discussed legislative items with relevance to Huntington Beach policies and priorities, as identified by the City Council. The following is a summary of 17 items that the IRC took positions on and are presented to the City Council for consideration: Select members of the State Legislature have developed bills or requests in response to the recent oil spill off Huntington Beach. The IRC considered six such items and took support positions on each: 1. SUPPORT: AB 1611 (Davies) - Notification of pipeline strikes within 24 hours AB 1611 would require a person to notify various state and federal entities that a vessel hit or likely hit a pipeline in waters off the state within 24 hours of the incident. State and federal entities include: State Department of Conservation, Office of the State Fire Marshal, Office of Oil Spill Prevention and Response, United States Coast Guard, and the Federal Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. Failure to notify include a civil penalty of not less than $10,000 and not more than $50,000, as well as additional civil penalties based on the number of gallons of oil discharged. 2. SUPPORT: AB 1657 (Nguyen) - Obligation to report an oil discharge in US waters This bill would require, without regard to intent or negligence, any party responsible for the discharge or threatened discharge of oil in waters of the United States that may reach or impact waters of the State to report the discharge immediately to Cal OES. Current law only covers discharges of oil or threatened discharge of oil in State waters. Failure to notify Cal OES would constitute a crime. 3. SUPPORT: AB 1658 (Nguyen) - Creating access to oil spill prevention and response best practices AB 1658 would require Cal OES to create, post on its website and make easily accessible best practices to prevent and respond to an oil spill. These best practices may include, but are not limited to, a model ordinance for local jurisdictions that would like to adopt a local oil spill response plan. 4. SUPPORT: AJR 24 (Nguyen) - Unified command center locations during oil spills Please note that Assembly Joint Resolutions (AJR) are statements with no legally binding force, but are unified requests from the legislature to the federal government. AJR 24 would request the federal government locate future unified command centers for oil spills based on proximity and access to the actual oil spills and to make them easily accessible to local agencies directly affected. 5. SUPPORT: AJR 25 (Nguyen) - Regulating vessel anchorages to prevent future oil spills Please note that Assembly Joint Resolutions (AJR) are statements with no legally binding force, but are unified requests from the legislature to the federal government. AJR 25 would request the U.S. Congress and President to increase resources for the enforcement of regulating vessel anchorages, in order to regulate the backlog of cargo ships and prevent future oil spills related to anchor strikes. 6. SUPPORT: SB 953 (Min) - Terminating oil and gas leases off state waters This bill would require the State Lands Commission to negotiate the termination of all remaining oil and gas leases under its jurisdiction in tidelands and submerged lands within State waters by December 31, City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™415 File #:22-285 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 2023. This bill would affect 11 oil leases off the Orange and Ventura County coastlines, but would not affect any oil leases in Federal waters or oil platforms off Long Beach. Similarly, select members of the State Legislature developed bills related to the preservation of the California coast. The IRC considered the following bills and took support positions on each: 7. SUPPORT: AB 2177 (Irwin) - Designating State Surfing Reserves AB 2177 would require the State to establish criteria and an application process for local cities to designate an area of the coastline as a State Surfing Reserve, similar to the California Scenic Highway program. This proposed program would be an opportunity to promote tourism and potentially apply for funding to protect and maintain these reserves in the future. 8. SUPPORT: SB 1036 (Newman) - California Ocean Corps This bill would allocate $40 million over four years to the California Conservation Corps to establish the California Ocean Corps. The Corps would focus on restoration work that address the current and potential impacts of climate change on ocean, coastal, and bay resources, including sea level rise, storm surge, beach and bluff erosion, salt water intrusion, and flooding. This bill has received strong support from various conservation-related groups including Bolsa Chica Conservancy and Surfrider Foundation. Members of the State Legislature developed bills related to vehicles and transportation. The IRC considered and took positions on the following: 9. SUPPORT: SB 1079 (Portantino) - Sound activated enforcement devices This bill would authorize local jurisdictions to use sound-activated enforcement devices to capture vehicle noise levels that exceed legal limits. These devices can be used by local agencies to mail tickets to violators. Sound-activated enforcement devices would be distributed equally across participating jurisdictions and are accepting amendments to refine the parameters to participate. As such, the IRC asks bill sponsors to provide funding to launch a pilot program with other adjacent cities. 10. SUPPORT: AB 2496 (Petrie-Norris) - Illegally modified exhaust AB 2496 is expected to require physical inspections for illegal modified exhausts during the smog check process, as a way to curb high decibel noises emitted from vehicles. Violations during inspections would result in a failure. The bill has thus far received support from seven coastal cities plus Irvine.Due to the urgency to move this bill forward, Mayor Delgleize has already submitted a letter of support (attached), which is allowed under the City Council Manual in such circumstances. 11. SUPPORT: AB 1653 (Patterson) - Regional property crimes task force This bill would add theft of vehicle parts and accessories such as catalytic converters to the property crimes that the California Highway Patrol’s Regional Property Crimes Task Force should prioritize. The Crimes Task Force was created to assist local law enforcement in counties identified by the CHP as having elevated levels of property crime, including, but not limited to organized retail theft and vehicle burglary. 12. SUPPORT: AB 1659 (Patterson) - Definition of automobile dismantlers (re: catalytic converters) AB 1659 would change the definition of an “automobile dismantler” to include a person who keeps or maintains 2 or more used catalytic converters that are not attached to a motor vehicle on property owned by the person. 13. SUPPORT: AB 1984 (Choi) - Possession of a stolen catalytic converter This bill would prohibit the purchase, sale, receipt, or possession of a stolen catalytic converter and that a City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 3 of 4 powered by Legistar™416 File #:22-285 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 peace officer need not have actual knowledge that the catalytic converter is stolen to establish probable cause for arrest. In the prosecution of thefts, circumstantial evidence may be used to prove the stolen nature of the catalytic converter. 14. SUPPORT: SB 986 (Umberg) - Tracing catalytic converters This bill would establish methods of tracing catalytic converters by requiring core recyclers to provide payment for catalytic converters only in traceable methods (which would exclude cash or checks). This bill would also prohibit a dealer or retailer from selling a new vehicle unless the converter has been engraved or etched with a vehicle identification number.Due to the urgency to move this bill forward, Mayor Delgleize has already submitted a letter of support (attached), which is allowed under the City Council Manual in such circumstances. 15. OPPOSE: AB 1909 (Friedman) - Motorized bicycles Current law prohibits the operation of a motorized bicycle or a class 3 electric bicycle on a bicycle path or trail, bikeway, bicycle lane, equestrian trail, or hiking or recreational trail, as specified. Current law authorizes a local authority to additionally prohibit the operation of class 1 and class 2 electric bicycles on these facilities. This bill would remove the prohibition of class 3 electric bicycles on these facilities and remove the authority of a local jurisdiction to prohibit class 1 and class 2 electric bicycles on these facilities. The bill would instead authorize a local authority to prohibit the operation of a class 3 electric bicycle at a motor-assisted speed greater than 20 miles per hour. 16. SUPPORT: SB 847 (Hurtado) - Rental Assistance for landlords and tenants The bill creates a grant program administered by the State Department of Housing and Community Development to distribute state funds to landlords on behalf of tenants unable to pay rent due to COVID-19 hardship and do not qualify under the state Emergency Rental Assistance Program.Due to the urgency to move this bill forward, Mayor Delgleize has already submitted a letter of support (attached), which is allowed under the City Council Manual in such circumstances. 17. SUPPORT: Resolution to Devote Resources to Eliminate the Threat of Fentanyl On January 25, 2022, the Orange County Board of Supervisors adopted a Resolution in committing to eliminate the threat of fentanyl in the community by devoting resources to the interdiction of narcotics, holding accountable drug traffickers and raising public awareness about the dangers of drug use. The IRC proposes adopting a similar resolution, which is attached for consideration. Environmental Status: Not applicable Strategic Plan Goal: Non Applicable - Administrative Item Attachment(s): 1.

Therefore, staff is recommending the City Council extend Urgency Ordinance No. 4249 for 10 months and 15 days, in accordance with state law, to ensure reasonable time to formulate permanent SB 9 regulations and go through the typical Zoning Text Amendment process. If the City Council does not extend Urgency Ordinance No. 4249, the locally established interim regulations will expire and the City will follow state law when processing SB 9 development applications. Environmental Status: Effective January 1, 2022 the proposed ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.21(j). Furthermore, the ordinance is exempt from CEQA because the proposed ordinance is not a project within the meaning of Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines and because it has no potential for resulting in a physical change in the environment, directly or ultimately. The proposed ordinance is categorically exempt from CEQA under Section 15308 of the CEQA Guidelines as a regulatory action taken by the City pursuant to its police power and in accordance with Government Code Section 65858 to assure maintenance and protection of the environment pending the evaluation and adoption of contemplated local legislation, regulation and policies. The ordinance is also not subject to CEQA under the general rule in CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b) (3), which exempts where it can be seen with certainty that the project will not result in significant environmental effects. Additionally, any development contemplated under the proposed ordinance must be treated ministerially, and any such projects would be subject to environmental review requirements pursuant to CEQA Strategic Plan Goal: Economic Development & Housing Attachment(s): 1.

Analysis: A.PROJECT PROPOSAL: Applicant: Luis Gomez, GoUrban Development, 26636 Basswood Ave., Rancho Palos Verdes CA, 90275 Zoning Text Amendment (ZTA) No. 21-007 is a request to amend the Beach and Edinger Corridors Specific Plan (BECSP) to allow Medical Services on the ground floor within the Town Center-Core Segment and eliminate discretionary review for Indoor Veterinary Clinics within the specific plan. B.BACKGROUND: Currently, all Medical Services that are proposed within the Town Center - Core segment of the BECSP must be located above the ground floor and along Ellis Avenue and Delaware Street. Additionally, Medical Services such as Indoor Veterinary Clinics, are subject to discretionary approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) from the Planning Commission (PC). In most other commercial districts within the city, the same uses are permitted on the ground floor and with no discretionary review. In December 2021, the applicant applied for a ZTA to draft the necessary amendments to the BECSP to allow Medical Services on the ground floor within the Town Center-Core Segment and eliminate discretionary review for Indoor Veterinary Clinics (Attachment No. 5). C.PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING AND RECOMMENDATION: On March 8, 2022, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the ZTA. The applicant was the only public speaker on the item. No written comments were received prior to the public hearing. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the request to the City Council. Planning Commission Action on March 8, 2022: A motion was made by Rodriguez, seconded by Mandic, to recommend to the City Council approval of ZTA No. 21-007 carried by the following vote: AYES: Rodriguez, Mandic, Scandura, Acosta-Galvan, Ray, Perkins, Adam NOES: None ABSTAIN: None ABSENT: None MOTION PASSED City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 2 of 3 powered by Legistar™453 File #:22-261 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 D.STAFF ANALYSIS: The March 8, 2021, Planning Commission staff report provides a more detailed description and analysis of the proposed ZTA (Attachment No. 4). In summary, staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval of ZTA No. 21-007 based on the following reasons: 1. It is consistent with general land uses, programs, goals, and policies of the General Plan. 2. It addresses a community need for health and wellness by expanding accessibility to Medical Services to a core area of the city and reduces processing time for Indoor Veterinary Clinics by allowing them by right. These changes could facilitate the establishment of new businesses, result in new job creation, and increase sales tax revenue. Environmental Status: ZTA No. 21-001 is within the scope of the BECSP Program Environmental Impact Report No. 08-008 certified by the Planning Commission on December 8, 2009. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15163, no subsequent or supplement to the EIR need be prepared for this ZTA, and no further environmental review or documentation is required.

In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 and 15163, no subsequent EIR or supplement to the EIR need be prepared for this ZTA and no further environmental review or documentation is required. SUGGESTED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT NO. 21-007: 1. Zoning Text Amendment No. 21-007 to amend the Beach and Edinger Corridors Specific Plan to allow Medical Services on the ground floor within the Town Center-Core Segment and eliminate discretionary review for Indoor Veterinary Clinics within the specific plan is consistent with general land uses, programs, goals, and policies of the General Plan as follows: Land Use Element: Goal LU-11 – Commercial land uses provide goods and services to meet regional and local needs. Policy LU-11(A) – Encourage a variety of commercial uses that cater to local and regional demand to create an environment that meets resident needs and increases the capture of sales tax revenues. Policy LU-11(B) – Encourage new businesses to locate on existing vacant or underutilized commercial properties where these properties have good locations and accessibility. Goal LU-13 – The city provides opportunities for new businesses and employees to ensure a high quality of life and thriving industry. Policy LU-13(A) - Encourage expansion of the range of goods and services provided to accommodate the needs of all residents and the market area. The proposed ZTA will allow essential medical services to be accessible for residents in the “core” areas of the specific plan and will reduce the processing time for indoor veterinary clinics which could encourage the establishment of new businesses and job creation within existing vacant or underutilized commercial properties with good locations and accessibility. The expansion of services could also increase sales tax revenues while meeting local and market area needs. Its scope will not affect General Plan land uses or programs. 2. Zoning Text Amendment No. 21-007 is compatible with the uses authorized in, and the standards prescribed for, the zoning district for which it is proposed because it does not propose any new land uses or revise development standards. The proposed ZTA will allow medical uses on the ground floor in an area of the specific plan currently developed with other commercial uses. Medical uses operate similarly to retail uses in that they serve the same customers and operate within similar hours as most retail uses. These uses are commonly found on the ground floor of most commercial properties and contribute to an active pedestrian experience. 455 Attachment No. 1.2 3. A community need is demonstrated for the change proposed because the ZTA allows imperative medical services to be accessible for residents in the “core” areas of the specific plan and will reduce the processing time for indoor veterinary clinics, which could encourage the establishment of new businesses, job creation, and increase sales tax revenues. 4. Its adoption will be in conformity with public convenience, general welfare and good zoning practice because the ZTA will allow medical services on the ground floor within a core area of the City and will also eliminate discretionary review, such as a Conditional Use Permit (CUP), for indoor veterinary clinics in a manner that is consistent with the zoning code in commercial areas outside of the specific plan planning area. Expanding medical services to the ground floor and permitting indoor veterinary clinics by right will provide a public convenience by meeting local market needs while increasing job opportunities and sales tax revenues. Removal of the conditional use permit requirement for indoor veterinary clinics will not be detrimental to the community because these uses are not impactful to surrounding businesses and are already well regulated through compliance with the HBZSO, Municipal Code and state licensing requirements. The proposed ZTA is good zoning practice because it will provide consistency in the allowable uses and permitting process between the BECSP and HBZSO, which is applicable in the majority of commercial areas of the City. 456 457 458 1 ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT NO. 21-007 LEGISLATIVE DRAFT Inserted text shown as bold and underlined font Deleted text shown as strikeout 2.1.3 Town Center – Core (Page 12) Section 2.2 2.2 Building Use Regulations Standards 2.2.1 Use Types 3) Office a) Professional Services permitted (C2 & L4) b) Medical Services permitted (C2 & L4) 2.2 Building Use Regulations (Page 28) Legend: -- Not Permitted Included Use: these uses are allowed by right, subject to Site Plan Review.

Are the proposed amendments consistent with the General Plan? 2. Does the project satisfy all the findings required for appro val of a Zoning Text Amendment? 3. Has the appropriate level of environmental analysis been determined? RECOMMENDATION: ..recommendation That the Planning Commission take the following actions: 464 A) Find that Zoning Text Amendment (ZTA) No. 21-007 is within the scope of the BECSP Program Environmental Impact Report No. 08 -008 certified by the Planning Commission on December 8, 2009. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15163, no subsequent EIR or supplement to the EIR need be prepared for this ZTA and no further environmental review or documentation is required (Attachment No. 1). B) Recommend approval of Zoning Text Amendment No. 21 -007 with findings (Attachment No. 1) by approving draf t City Council Resolution No. 22-008 and forward to the City Council for consideration. ..end ALTERNATIVE ACTION(S): A) Do not recommend approval of Zoning Text Amendment No. 21-007 to the City Council; or B) Continue Zoning Text Amendment No. 21-007 and direct staff accordingly. PROJECT PROPOSAL: Currently, all Medical Services that are proposed within the Town Center - Core segment of the BECSP must be located above the ground floor and along Ellis Avenue and Delaware Street. Additionally, Medical Services such as Indoor Veterinary Clinics, are subject to discretionary approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) from the Planning Commission (PC). In most other commercial districts within the city, the same uses are permitted on the ground floor and with no discretionary review. In December 2021, the applicant applied for a ZTA to draft the necessary amendments to the BECSP to allow Medical Services on the ground floor within the Town Center-Core Segment and eliminate discretionary review for Indoor Veterinary Clinics (Attachment No. 4). ISSUES AND ANALYSIS: General Plan Conformance: The proposed ZTA is consistent with general land uses, programs, goals, and policies of the General Plan as follows: Land Use Element: Goal LU-11 – Commercial land uses provide goods and services to meet regional and local needs. Policy LU-11(A) – Encourage a variety of commercial uses that cater to local and regional demand to create an environment that meets resident needs and increases the capture of sales tax revenues. 465 Policy LU-11(B) – Encourage new businesses to locate on existing vacant or underutilized commercial properties where these properties have good locations and accessibility. Goal LU-13 – The city provides opportunities for new businesses and employees to ensure a high quality of life and thriving industry. Policy LU-13(A) - Encourage expansion of the range of goods and services provided to accommodate the needs of all residents and the market area. The ZTA will allow essential medical services to be a ccessible for residents in the core areas of the BECSP planning area and will reduce the processing time for indoor veterinary clinics which could encourage the establishment of new businesses and job creation within existing vacant or underutilized commercial properties with good locations and accessibility. The expansion of services could also increase sales tax revenues while meeting local and market area needs. Its scope will not affect General Plan land uses or programs. Zoning Compliance: Zoning Text Amendment ZTA No. 21-007 includes the following amendments to Book II – Development Code, Sections 2.1.3 (Town Center – Core, Building Use Regulations) and 2.2.1 (Use Types) to implement the applicant’s request (Attachment No. 3): 1. Section 2.1.3 (Town Center – Core), Section 2.2.1 (Use Types), Subsection 3)(b) (Medical Services) – Eliminate Special Conditions “C2” and Location “L4” from Medical Services to allow Medical Services on the ground floor of all streets of the Town Center - Core segment of the BECSP. 2. Section 2.2.1 (Use Types) – Eliminate “c” (representing CUP to PC) next to “Indoor Veterinary Clinic” of the Medical Services table and replace it with a dot to indicate the use is permitted by right. The BECSP currently permits Medical Services with in the Town Center – Core with special conditions “C2” (upper floor only) and Location “L4” (on Ellis Avenue and Delaware Street). Special Conditions “C2” and Location “L4” limit Medical Service to above the ground floor and only along Ellis Avenue and Delaware Street. Neither commercial centers within this segment, 5 Points Plaza and The Boardwalk, offer upper- level commercial nor face Ellis Avenue or Delaware Street. Thus, Special Conditions C2 and L4 have excluded Medical Services within the Town Center – Core as a whole. While the original intent of this segment of the specific plan was to feature ground-level retail, restaurant, and entertainment uses in order to create a more active pedestrian experience, traditional retail and services have diminished over the years due to the rise 466 of e-commerce. Demand for traditional medical services, however, remains the same and is vital for an aging community. The market demand for other medical services, such as indoor veterinary clinics, also remains the same in the community. These uses are commonly found on the ground floor of most commercial properties and contribute to an active pedestrian experience. Medical offices and veterinary clinics operate similarly to retail uses in that they serve the same customers an d operate within similar hours as most retail uses. Both the HBZSO and BECSP classify veterinary clinics as an office use categorized with other professional office uses such as medical and dental facilities, acupuncture, chiropractic, architecture, and law offices. Within the HBZSO, these uses are permitted “by right” in commercial zoning districts. Citywide, veterinary clinics are permitted “by right” because they do not require special consideration or additional operational conditions in order to find the use compatible with the surrounding community or to avoid impacts to adjacent tenants and businesses. Although the City does not receive complaints or have active code enforcement cases related to veterinary clinics, compliance with existing zoning and municipal code requirements as well as state licensing requirements would adequately address any issues that could arise. As such, a conditional use permit is not necessary. Additionally, a veterinary clinic is distinguished from a veterinary hospital in that a clinic operates under typical medical office hours and does not offer extended boarding. Veterinary hospitals may offer emergency services outside of normal business hours and may allow a maximum 30 days of boarding with hospital care. This use is limited to Commercial General (CG) zoned properties and only permitted with approval of a CUP from the Zoning Administrator. In most commercially zoned areas outside of the BECSP, Medical Services, including Indoor Veterinary Clinics, are permitted on the ground floor, with no discretionary review. The proposed ZTA would make the BECSP process consistent with the permitting process in other areas of the City. The proposed ZTA will also expand allowable uses within the BECSP that have been excluded since the specific plan was adopted. Over the years, the City has received many inquiries and requests for medical uses in the Town Center – Core segment. The proposed ZTA will enable property owners to fill vacant tenant spaces with an appropriate use for this segment. Additionally, the amendment will eliminate the need of any discretionary review for Indoor Veterinary Clinics, representing a savings of the typical processing time to PC (4-6 months) and the current CUP processing fee of $13,457. Lastly, the ZTA does not propose any new land uses or revise development standards. It addresses a community need for health and wellness by expanding accessibility to Medical Services to a core area of the city and reduces processing time for Indoor Veterinary Clinics by allowing them by right. These changes could facilitate the establishment of new businesses, result in new job creation, and increase sales tax revenue. Urban Design Guidelines Conformance: Not applicable. 467 Environmental Status: ZTA No. 21-007 is within the scope of the BECSP Program Environmental Impact Report No. 08-008 certified by the Planning Commission on December 8, 2009. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15163, no subsequent EIR o r supplement to the EIR need be prepared for this ZTA and no further environmental review or documentation is required. Coastal Status: Not applicable. Design Review Board: Not applicable. Other Departments Concerns and Requirements: Not applicable. Public Notification: Legal notice was published in the Huntington Beach Wave on February 24, 2022 and notices were sent to individuals and organizations requesting notification (Planning Division’s Notification Matrix).

As of March 2, 2022 no communications regarding the request have been received. Application Processing Dates: DATE OF COMPLETE APPLICATION: MANDATORY PROCESSING DATE(S): Not applicable Legislative Action – Not applicable SUMMARY: Staff is recommending approval of ZTA No. 21-007 based on the following reasons: 1. It is consistent with general land uses, programs, goals, and policies of the General Plan. 2. It addresses a community need for health and wellness by expanding accessibility to Medical Services to a core area of the city and reduces processing time for Indoor Veterinary Clinics by allowing them by right. These changes could facilitate the establishment of new businesses, result in new job creation, and increase sales tax revenue. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Suggested Findings of Approval – ZTA No. 21-007 2. Draft City Council Resolution 3. ZTA No. 21-007 Legislative Draft and Revised BECSP Sections 2.1.3 and 2.2.1 4. Narrative received and dated December 8, 2021 468 18501 – 18691 Main Street | Huntington Beach | CA December 2, 2021 Project Background: Diana Li, owner of Shengying Investment, LLC, is a small business owner looking to establish an independently owned veterinary clinic in the City of Huntington Beach. Ms. Li has leased a commercial suite at 5 Points Plaza located at 18567 Main Street, Huntington Beach, CA 92648. 5 Points Plaza is subject to zoning regulations of the BECSP. In its current form, the BECSP prohibits indoor veterinary clinics at 5 Points Plaza. In response, Ms. Li is requesting to amend the BECSP to allow her veterinary clinic at 5 Points Plaza. Beach and Edinger Corridor Specific Plan: A Specific Plan is a tool for the systematic implementation of the General Plan but is not a component of a General Plan. It provides specific land use direction and development regulations for an area within the City, consistent with the General Plan and other City regulations. Often, Specific Plans are used to establish a link between implementing policies of the General Plan and individual development proposals in a defined area. Specific Plans are adopted and amended in the same manner as a General Plan, except that a Specific Plan may be adopted by resolution or by ordinance and may be amended as often as deemed necessary by the City Council. In 2010, the City of Huntington Beach approved the BECSP in efforts to enhance overall economic development, physical beauty and functionality of the Beach Boulevard and Edinger Avenue corridors. The BECSP was created with the following objectives in mind: 1. Position the city such that it would remain competitive and attractive to businesses; 2. Re-position disinvested corridor properties to capture value in the contemporary marketplace; 3. Realign development policies and planned public investments to capitalize on the current primary market trends; 4. Provide a reliable environment for investors that spell out municipal requirements in sufficient detail and that provides enhanced reliability and clarity as to character of future development; and 5. Capitalize on residents with discretionary spending potential to support restaurants, quick foods, electronics, fashion and accessories and services, thereby spinning off additional retail spending. The BECSP designates eight Corridor Centers and Segments. 5 Points Plaza, as well as a portion of The Boardwalk by Windsor property located on Edinger Avenue, make up the entirety of the Town Center – Core segment. Land uses and development standards specific to the Town Center – Core segment are listed in Section 2.1.3 of BECSP. The Town Center – Core segment is shown in the map below. 469 18501 – 18691 Main Street | Huntington Beach | CA December 2, 2021 Source: Page 12, Beach and Edinger Corridor Specific Plan The Town Center Core Segment: 5 Points Plaza Known as one of the best shopping centers in Huntington Beach, 5 Points Plaza is a 160,000 square foot lifestyle center that offers a great variety of goods and services. The center was built in the early 1960’s and has gone through several revitalization efforts to maintain its modern architecture and landscape design. The center is conveniently located at the five-point intersection of Beach Boulevard, Main Street and Ellis Avenue and offers its guests easy access and ample parking. It's important to note, like so many suburban shopping centers located in southern California, 5 Points Plaza is a single-story shopping center. A copy of the property site plan is provided as Exhibit A. The Boardwalk The Boardwalk by Windsor located at the intersection of Edinger Avenue and Gothard Street is a recently completed development project that offers luxury apartment homes as well as 17,500 square feet of 470 18501 – 18691 Main Street | Huntington Beach | CA December 2, 2021 mixed-use retail and restaurant uses on the ground floor of the residential building. Similar to 5 Points Plaza, all retail space is located on the ground floor. Amendment Requests: Amendment to Section 2.1.3, Table 2.2 (page 12) The BECSP currently permits Medical Services within the Town Center – Core with Special Conditions C2 (upper floor only) and L4 (on Ellis Avenue and Delaware Street). Special Conditions C2 and L4 limit Medical Service to the second floor and along Ellis Avenue and Delaware Street. Neither 5 Points Plaza nor The Boardwalk offer upper-level retail nor reside on Ellis Avenue or Delaware Street. Thus, Special Conditions C2 and L4 have precluded Medical Services within the Town Center – Core as a whole. Since its inception, the BECSP has led to numerous developments and improvements seen throughout the Beach Boulevard and Edinger Avenue corridors including the Luce Apartment Project, The Broadway by Windsor Mixed Use Project, and Beach Promenade Shopping Center to name a few. Despite the revitalization that the corridors have experienced since the enactment of the BECSP, the COVID-19 pandemic has shown adverse effects on local retail market trends. Demand for traditional retail uses such as gift and flower shops, designer merchandise sales, and dry cleaning service, has declined given the shift to online purchases and the work from home trend, while with the aging population, demand for health and medical services continues to gain traction. Medical services are crucial throughout the community and being able to provide them in the “core” of Huntington Beach is pivotal for the health and wellness of all citizens in the area. Amendment of the Specific Plan’s development standards in Section 2.1.3 would remove the current requirement for medical service patrons to walk upstairs to access their services, eliminating what might be viewed as an obstacle for them. The Tenant is requesting to strike Special Conditions C2 and L4 from Medical Services as illustrated below. This change is needed to permit ground level Medical Services at 5 Point Plaza and The Boardwalk. A full copy of the proposed change is provided as Exhibit B. 471 18501 – 18691 Main Street | Huntington Beach | CA December 2, 2021 Source: Page 12, Beach and Edinger Corridor Specific Plan Amendment to Section 2.2.1, 3) Office, b) Medical Services (page 29) Section 2.2.1 of BECSP defines Medical Services as “Medical workplace uses and establishments with employees with medical licenses such as those listed. Medical & dental Offices or facilities (permitted), Indoor veterinary clinics (conditionally permitted), Acupuncture, physical therapy, chiropractor (permitted), Psychiatric (permitted), Mortuary services (permitted). Per the definition stated above, all Medical Services are permitted by right, with the except of veterinary clinics. According to many news sources, the COVID-19 pandemic created a pet boom fuel by those in isolation. The Washington Post’s Kim Kavin states “What began in mid- March as a sudden surge in demand had, 472 18501 – 18691 Main Street | Huntington Beach | CA December 2, 2021 as of mid-July, become a bona fide sales boom. Shelters, nonprofit rescues, private breeders, pet stores — all reported more consumer demand than there were dogs and puppies to fill it.”1 With the uptick of pets in our communities, a growing demand for pet service providers will ensue. The Tenant is requesting to strike the “c” of the Medical Services table listed on page 29 of the BECSP and replace it with a dot as illustrated below. The “c” requires that indoor veterinary clinics process a CUP. The proposed amendment will allow indoor veterinary clinics by right within the Town Center – Core segment. This amendment will remove unnecessary roadblocks and streamline the approval process for veterinary clinic operators within the Town Center – Core segment of the BECSP. A full copy of the proposed change is provided as Exhibit C. Source: Page 29, Beach and Edinger Corridor Specific Plan Suggested Finding for Approval: The proposed Specific Plan Amendment to amend the BECSP to permit medical services on the ground level and to eliminate the requirement of a CUP for veterinary clinics within the Town Center – Core segment is consistent with general land uses, programs, goals and polices of the General Plan as follows: Goal LU-11. Commercial land uses provide goods and services to meet the regional and local needs. Policy LU-11(A). Encourage a variety of commercial uses that cater to local and regional demand to create an environment that meets resident needs and increases the capture of sales tax revenues. Policy LU-11(B). Encourage new businesses to locate on existing vacant or underutilized commercial properties where these properties have good locations and accessibility Goal LU-13. The city provides opportunities for new businesses and employees to ensure a high quality of life and thriving industry. Policy LU-13(A). Encourage expansion of the range of goods and services provided to accommodate the needs of all residents and the market area. 1 The Washington Post, Dog adoptions and sales soar during the pandemic, Kim Kavin, August 12, 2020. 473 18501 – 18691 Main Street | Huntington Beach | CA December 2, 2021 The proposed Specific Plan Amendment will allow much needed medical services within 5 Points Plaza, one of the City’s most conveniently located and easily accessible shopping center. Additionally, the proposed Specific Plan Amendment will reduce the processing time for indoor veterinary clinics with the Town Center – Core segment of the BECSP. This could encourage the establishment of new businesses, job creation, and increase sales tax revenues. Its scope will not affect General Plan land uses or programs The proposed Specific Plan Amendment is compatible with the uses authorized in, and the standards prescribed for, the zoning district for which it is proposed because it does not propose any new land uses or revise development standards.

Surplus land may be declared either “surplus” or “exempt surplus” by the legislative body of the local agency as supported by written findings. The SLA requires local agencies to report on any properties that have been declared “surplus” or “exempt surplus” lands in the Annual Housing Element Report due in April of each year. There is one parcel referred to in this report subject to the SLA that may be eligible for disposition, which will be more particularly described in the Analysis section of this staff report. Financial Impact: There is no immediate fiscal impact associated with this action. Any agreement approving a conveyance of interest in City property will be brought before the City Council for consideration, including any costs or revenues associated with such transaction. Recommended Action: A) Declare one City-owned property located near Holly Lane and Main Street (APN 159-281-04) as “exempt surplus land” as defined in Government Code Section 54221(f); and, B) Adopt Resolution No. 2022-14, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Declaring Certain Real Property Owned by the City (APN 159-281-04) is Exempt Surplus Land Not Necessary for the City’s Use Pursuant to the Surplus Land Act and Finding That Such Declaration is Exempt from Environmental Review Under the California Environmental Quality Act,” including written findings, supporting the declaration. City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™482 File #:22-291 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action, and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Effective January 1, 2020 Assembly Bill (AB) No. 1486 and AB No. 1255 amended the SLA requiring local agencies to formally declare publicly owned property not necessary for the local agency’s use as “surplus land” or “exempt surplus land” before beginning the disposition process. Surplus land must follow a statutory noticing and negotiation period with certain designated entities, including eligible housing sponsors defined by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Multiple categories qualify land as “exempt surplus land” that does not have to follow the procedural requirements of the Surplus Land Act. APN: 159-281-04; Size 0.08 acres This parcel is of varying width and approximately 280 feet long for a total of approximately 3,374 square feet. The parcel access is from Holly Lane to the west and Main Street to the east. It is bounded by private property to the north and south. See Attachment 1 for property details. The property was acquired by the City in 1964 to allow Standard Oil Company to lay down an oil pipeline and is encumbered with a utility easement to the benefit of Standard Oil or their successors. The parcel is held in fee by the City; however, the City has no use for this property. The owner of adjacent parcels has assembled the surrounding land for a development project and has expressed interest in purchasing this parcel from the City. Prior to disposing of this parcel, the City must declare the property either “surplus lands” or “exempt surplus lands”. This parcel qualifies as “exempt surplus lands” because it is less than 5,000 square feet and less than the minimum legal residential building lot size required under the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO). This property must be sold to an owner of contiguous land to be considered “exempt surplus land”. If the City Council were to want to sell the parcel it would be to an adjacent owner of contiguous land, which purchase and sale agreement will come before the City Council at a future date. Environmental Status: Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5), administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment do not constitute a project.

Hopkins, Assistant City Manager PREPARED BY:Catherine Jun, Assistant to the City Manager Subject: Approve for Introduction Ordinance No. 4251 adding Chapter 10.53 to Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic) of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code, prohibiting the unlawful possession of Catalytic Converters in the City Statement of Issue: The City Council is requested to approve Ordinance No. 4251, adding Chapter 10.53 to Title 10 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code that establishes regulations to prohibit the unlawful possession of catalytic converters in the City. Financial Impact: Not applicable Recommended Action: Approve for introduction Ordinance No. 4251, "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Adding a New Chapter 10.53 to Title 10 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code, Prohibiting the Unlawful Possession of Catalytic Converters in the City, and Making a Finding of Exemption Under CEQA.” Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the first reading of the ordinance and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: The State of California leads the nation in catalytic converter thefts, which have increased in recent years. According to a report by State Farm Insurance, more than 3 of 10 claims for catalytic converter thefts are filed in California and thefts have risen nationally by 293% in Fiscal Year 2020-21. Catalytic converters are located underneath a vehicle and reduce the amount of pollutants released from the exhaust system. However, the precious metals contained inside this auto part (i.e. platinum, palladium or rhodium) make them a valuable commodity on the black market. Individuals are further incentivized to commit catalytic converter thefts due to the ease and speed with which they can be removed with common tools like a reciprocating saw and the ability to recycle catalytic converters at scrap metal yards for high dollar returns. Lastly, the lack of identifying information on catalytic converters make it nearly impossible to locate victims and City of Huntington Beach Printed on 3/30/2022Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™487 File #:22-249 MEETING DATE:4/5/2022 prosecute criminals. As such, a majority of thefts remain unresolved. These thefts create financial and logistical burdens for community members. The average cost of replacing a stolen catalytic converter and repairing residual damage to the vehicle is more than $2,000. In an effort to prevent thefts, the Huntington Beach Police Department has hosted several events to etch identification numbers onto catalytic converters to make them traceable and less attractive on the black market. HBPD has also paired this program with regular outreach and education about parking vehicles in well-lit areas and installing protective cages. However, it remains difficult to halt the transportation, sale and distribution of catalytic converters within the City’s existing laws. Police Officers who spot an individual in possession of an unattached catalytic converter are unable to ask for proof of ownership or legitimate means of obtaining the converter, limiting law enforcement’s ability to deter thefts. Ordinance No. 4251 would establish that it is unlawful for any individual other than a Core Recycler of catalytic converters to possess a catalytic converter that is not attached to a vehicle without all of the valid proofs of ownership below: 1. The license plate number and vehicle identification number of the car from which the catalytic converter was removed. 2. The name, address, and telephone number of the owner of the vehicle from which the catalytic converter was removed. 3. The signature of the vehicle owner authorizing removal of the catalytic converter. 4. The name, address, and telephone number of the current owner of the catalytic converter. Each violation of this section may be prosecuted as a misdemeanor, subject to a fine not to exceed $1,000, imprisonment up to 6 months, or both. This ordinance would ultimately provide the Police Department with legal authority to deter and potentially reduce the transfer or theft of catalytic converts within the City of Huntington Beach. Environmental Status: The proposed ordinance would not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment. As such, the proposed ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), which exempts activities where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.
