CITY COUNCIL MEETING—COUNCIL MEMBER ITEMS REPORT
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: DAN KALMICK, CITY COUNCILMEMBER
DATE: OCTOBER 18, 2022
SUBJECT: SB 6 AND AB 2011 LOCAL CONTROL IMPLEMENTATION—OBJECTIVE STANDARDS
The passage of SB 6 and AB 2011, which go into effect in July of 2023, have the potential to be
transformational to the housing market.The by-right approvals under AB 2011 have the potential
to change many of our retail centers on Beach Blvd. As we have seen with SB 35, several projects
that would be highly detrimental to the fabric of our community have been submitted and
thankfully rejected.
In order to maintain local control of our commercial areas and to prevent problematic and
unsustainable housing projects from being built without community input, I believe it is prudent
to ask the Community Development Department to begin work on creating objective standards
that will help guide the local implementation of SB 6 and AB 2011 in Huntington Beach.
The target completion date for update to the municipal code should be by June 2023.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Manager to task the Community Development Department to create objective
standards for the local implementation of SB 6 and AB 2011 and, as an implementation target,
have those standards brought through the Planning Commission and heard by the City Council
by June 2023.
