He added he believes this should be evaluated as a Residential Medium High-Density project and clarification is needed from Clearwater regarding the number of second beds allowed beyond the 159 units because he believes the number of second beds approved could change required parking spaces. Mayor Pro Tern Burns also stated his concern regarding the Floor Area Ratio (FAR) which he believes needs further evaluation because the actual number presented and discussed at the meeting on October 15, 2024, exceeds the allowed ten percent variance. He noted that the project developer admitted the actual FAR of 1.68 was inaccurately reported in their presentation materials on October 15, 2024. Mayor Pro Tern Burns cannot just ignore this fact and believes approving this misinformation may be enough to Council/PFA Regular Minutes November 19, 2024 Page 9 of 14 repeal, revoke, or reverse Ordinance No. 4327. He encouraged his fellow Councilmembers to vote "No" so this project can be reconsidered. Councilmember Kalmick clarified for the record that what was presented and discussed at the October 15, 2024, meeting was not a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) variance and explained that FAR is used in commercial but not residential projects. He added this is a very ordinary assisted living facility as described in Huntington Beach land use regulations in the Commercial Code. Councilmember Kalmick stated that the October presentation was quite clear to him and added that a ten percent FAR deviation from the design standards is allowed. He noted that the FAR number is 1.75 in the Specific Plan which has already been approved, and that is not even being considered in Item #13. Item #13 is only considering the Zoning text amendment as a second reading of an approved legal document. He stated there has been no new information presented at this time which would require further discussion. Councilmember Bolton asked staff if the units in this project would count towards the State mandated Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) numbers. Community Development Director Jennifer Villasenor responded that no assisted living units can be counted towards RHNA numbers, and noted there are no independent living units in this project. Councilmember Bolton stated this information confirms for her the Balsa Chica Senior Care Community Project is not a residential project, and she will continue to support this item. Councilmember Moser stated support for the comments of Councilmembers Kalmick and Bolton. She added that senior housing is needed in Huntington Beach, but clearly this project is a commercial project which she continues to support. Councilmember McKean clarified from his perspective that this project is too dense for the property size. He explained that the allowed Floor Area Ratio (FAR) under current zoning is 1.5 and this project is 1.68. A Specific Plan for this property was required to make the project fit. As a commercial developer, he provided examples of appropriate and inappropriate lot sizes for project plans. He added that it is not the duty of Councilmembers to make accommodations for a project that is too large for the proposed site. A motion was made by Kalmick, second Strickland to approve Zoning Map Amendment No. 21-003 by adopting City Council Ordinance No. 4327, "An Ordinance of the City of Huntington Beach Amending the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance to Rezone the Real Property Generally Located on the Southwest Corner of Warner Avenue at Balsa Chica Street from CG (Commercial General) to SP-19 (Specific Plan No. 19) (Zoning Map Amendment No. 21-003)" (Attachment No. 1).
