The motion carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Twining, Kennedy, McKeon, Burns, Van Der Mark, Gruel, and Williams NOES: None Community Development 18. 25-329 TABLED execution of the First Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement between the City of Huntington Beach and Nash-Holland 18750 Delaware Investors, LLC Mayor Burns pulled this item to clarify why it took so long to determine whether these changes needed to be made and asked how the changes affect the City. Charles Kovac, Housing Manager, presented a PowerPoint communication titled First Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement – 18750 Delaware Street, with slides entitled: Background, Proposed Unit Mix Adjustment, Recommendations, and Questions? Mayor Burns and Jennifer Villasenor, Community Development Director, discussed the fact that the original Proposed Unit Mix Adjustment was based upon entitlement or conceptual plans. As the facility was constructed it became obvious the count for two-bedroom and three-bedroom units had been incorrect. This item updates the Unit Mix Adjustment to reflect reality. Councilman Kennedy confirmed the total number of units has remained the same, and it is only the mix of types of units that is being adjusted. Director Villasenor noted it is in the City's interest to approve this because it increases the number of units available at market rates, which increases property taxes, and it keeps this project within code requirements. 41 Council/PFA Regular Meeting and Housing Authority Special Meeting Minutes August 19, 2025, Page 9 of 16 Councilmembers and staff continued the discussion and noted this project was added to the Beach Edinger Corridor Specific Plan in 2020; confirmed that this readjustment of unit types does not contradict any State or local codes but rather brings the project into alignment with all codes; discussed density and open space waivers approved for this project; clarified that the builders made this error, not the City; discussed the pros and cons of approving, or not approving, this item, noting that if it is not approved, the project would be a bit out of alignment with current code; and Director Villasenor noted that staff would not have made the recommendation to approve this item if there were any downsides for the City. A motion was made by Burns, second Kennedy to TABLE this item to September 2, 2025, City Council meeting to allow more time to consider the situation. The motion carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Twining, Kennedy, McKeon, Burns, Van Der Mark, Gruel, and Williams NOES: None 19. 25-637 TABLED Execution of the Third Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement and the Second Amendment to the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions to Extend Affordability Covenants by One Year for the Five Points Senior Villas Project Councilman Kennedy pulled this item to get clarification on: 1) when an Affordable Housing Agreement expires does the project go to market rates; 2) if owners felt that rent stability is an issue, do they not have the right to raise rents; and 3) what is the point of an Affordable Housing Agreement extension? Manager Kovac stated in this case stability is related to the seniors who are living there. The City typically asks for three-year extensions, but this time the investors said they only need one year to consider their long-term options such as if a project needs to be rehabbed or assessed for potential improvements. The investors may even extend the agreement if the City was to provide a loan for rehabilitation. The investors and the City are interested in providing stability for the seniors living there. Councilman Kennedy stated that the City should not be in the lending business and suggested a policy that when a renter leases an affordable housing unit, a termination date should be part of the agreement. Director Villasenor explained that the benefit to the City of approving the extension is having the affordability covenant continue. The builder/investors are voluntarily asking to keep covenants recorded on this property for low-income seniors. Councilman Kennedy countered that the City should be the driver and demand a ten-year agreement with no loan from the City. Councilmembers and staff noted that approving this extension is doing a favor for the City's senior citizens; the City doesn't have the right to tell the owners how long they must provide affordable senior housing; their understanding that this one-year extension is for the benefit of the senior citizen residents; that affordable housing procedures include residents being informed of agreement ending dates; the discussions have not yet discovered developer's plans, but the intent at this point is to assure the senior residents will have at least one more year of affordable rates while providing the developer another year to decide their plan of action. 42 Council/PFA Regular Meeting and Housing Authority Special Meeting Minutes August 19, 2025, Page 10 of 16 Mayor Pro Tem McKeon stated that Councilmembers should infuse best practices from the private sector so that the City doesn't experience gaps or liability. In this situation, he believes it behooves Council to expect a ten-year covenant extension. Manager Kovac noted the City's original request was for another three-year extension and the developers returned asking for a one-year extension. He added it could become a negotiated situation where the developers may ask for a loan from Housing Funds with a ten- year agreement but doubts they would accept an offer for a ten-year agreement if they did not want to accept a three-year agreement. Councilmembers asked what the consequences could be for a decision made at this time. Manager Kovac stated if this agreement extension is not approved, the developer could let the agreement expire and return to market rates which would negatively impact the senior residents who would lose their affordable housing rates. Councilmember Kennedy stated for the record that he believes the City needs to do a better job of negotiating, especially when negotiating on behalf of the City's senior residents Mayor Burns confirmed with Manager Kovacs that if the affordable housing agreement expires, and the rates return to market rates, the City's Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) numbers are increased by the number of units in that agreement. Community Development Director Villasenor explained that generally when there are affordable units at risk of becoming market rate, there need to be plans to try and keep them as affordable units or plans for replacement affordable units. A motion was made by McKeon, second Kennedy to TABLE this item to next City Council meeting on September 2, 2025, to allow time to negotiate at least a three-year or five-year agreement extension. The motion carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Twining, Kennedy, McKeon, Burns, Van Der Mark, Gruel, and Williams NOES: None Police 20. 25-638 Adopted Resolution No. 2025-55 authorizing the acceptance of FY25/26 Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program (CTFGP) funding from the California Highway Patrol to support DUI enforcement and officer training A motion was made by Burns, second McKeon to approve and authorize the execution of grant agreement FY25/26 CTFGP Law Enforcement-Huntington Beach Police Department and adopt Resolution No. 2025-55, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Authorizing the Chief of Police to Accept Grant Funds from the State of California Department of California Highway Patrol for DUI Saturation Patrols and Standardized Field Sobriety Test (SFST) Training." The motion carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Twining, Kennedy, McKeon, Burns, Van Der Mark, Gruel, and Williams NOES: None 21. 25-635 Adopted Resolution No. 2025-53 Updating the Uniform Bail Schedule for Parking Violations & Establishing CPI-Based Annual Adjustments Councilman Williams pulled this item to clarify this is an effort to update rates that haven't changed in over five years. He noted he does not usually support efforts that will increase costs for residents 43 ---- Council/PFA Regular Meeting and Housing Authority Special Meeting Minutes August 19, 2025, Page 11 of 16 however, it is expected that these new fees will provide an approximately $1M increase in revenue for the General Fund. He stated if the expected increased funding was prioritized for Public Safety enhancements, then the effort would have his support. City Attorney Mike Vigliotta stated that direction for use of funds was not agendized, therefore the item needs to stand as originally presented. He added a plan for spending the money can be presented at a future meeting if the Council so desires. Councilman Twining stated support for the amended item and invited Police Lt. Archer to provide a brief overview of how Huntington Beach compares to immediately surrounding communities with regards to parking violations and fees. Mayor Pro Tem McKeon stated that earmarking revenue can be a slippery slope and noted that revenue comes in through the General Fund and it is up to Councilmembers to provide the oversight regarding how those funds are disbursed through the budgetary process. Councilman Kennedy and Lt. Archer discussed that if an individual can show proof they do have a valid/current disability placard/plate within 30 days of a citation, the fine may be reduced to $25 and this is reviewed on a case-by-case situation. Councilmembers and Lt. Archer discussed oversized vehicle, RV and trailer issues which are being addressed, and asked if there is any mechanism to designate increased revenues for specific expenditures. A motion was made by Williams, second Twining to Adopt Resolution No. 2025-53, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Adopting an Amended Uniform Bail Schedule for Parking Violations", which rescinds Resolution No. 2020-53 and approves an updated Uniform Bail Schedule for parking violations, as outlined in Exhibit A. The resolution also establishes a $25 administrative fee for late payment of parking citations in accordance with California Vehicle Code Section 40207(a) and introduces an annual adjustment to parking fines based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County region. This CPI adjustment will be annually applied automatically to help ensure that fines remain equitable and reflect changes in inflation, as amended to direct staff to allocate the anticipated additional revenue of approximately $1M from the updated Parking Fine Schedule exclusively for Public Safety Enhancements, including a second Administrative Fire Captain position costing approximately $289,500, and direct any excess funds to the Police Department to be spent at the discretion of the Police Chief. These funds will be tracked separately and staff will provide quarterly reports on its use to ensure funds are not absorbed into the general operations without oversight to return with a study on allocating use for the anticipated additional revenue. The motion failed by the vote on the substitute motion. A substitute motion was made by McKeon, second Van Der Mark to adopt Resolution No. 2025-53, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Adopting an Amended Uniform Bail Schedule for Parking Violations", which rescinds Resolution No. 2020-53 and approves an updated Uniform Bail Schedule for parking violations, as outlined in Exhibit A. The resolution also establishes a $25 administrative fee for late payment of parking citations in accordance with California Vehicle Code Section 40207(a) and introduces an annual adjustment to parking fines based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County region. This CPI adjustment will be annually applied automatically to help ensure that fines remain equitable and reflect changes in inflation. 44 Council/PFA Regular Meeting and Housing Authority Special Meeting Minutes August 19, 2025, Page 12 of 16 The motion carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Twining, Kennedy, McKeon, Burns, Van Der Mark, Gruel, and Williams NOES: None Public Works 22. 25-444 Approved and Accepted the Public Improvements, Released the Securities for, and Accepted a Guarantee and Warranty Bond for the Public Improvements in Tract 19136 and Released Guarantee and Warranty Bond for Gisler Park Improvements A motion was made by Burns, second McKeon to accept the public improvements constructed and dedicated for public use with Tract 19136, and instruct the City Clerk to record the Notice of Acceptance of Public Improvements (Attachment 2) with the Orange County Recorder; and, release the securities for the Public Improvements - Faithful Performance Bond No. US00121915SU22A and Labor and Materials Bond No. US00121915SU22A and Monumentation Bond No. US00121913SU22A; and, accept Guarantee and Warranty Bond No. US00121915SU22A-M (Attachment 3); the security furnished for guarantee and warranty for public improvements, and instruct the City Clerk to file the bond with the City Treasurer; and, release Guarantee and Warranty Bond No. US00121914SU22A-M for Gisler Park Improvements; and, instruct the City Clerk to notify the developer, Lennar Homes of California, LLC, of this action, and the City Treasurer to notify the Surety, XL Specialty Insurance Company, of this action.

She is excited to support him as the Treasurer of Huntington Beach. Councilman Twining stated that as one Councilmember who interviewed various candidates for this position, Jason stood out as the best. He, too, was unaware that Jason had contributed to his campaign fund until he read the Surf City Sentinel Facebook blog. Mayor Pro Tem McKeon stated he looks for opportunities to fuse private sector with government and stated his expectation that Jason will continue the great legacy of retired City Treasurer Alicia Backstrom. Mayor Burns noted that he was also on the Ad Hoc Committee to interview applicants, and it was easy to see Jason was the top candidate. Mayor Burns amended this item to include disbanding the City Council Ad Hoc Committee created to interview applicants. A motion was made by Van Der Mark, second Twining to appoint Jason Schmitt to the position of City Treasurer for the City of Huntington Beach; and approve and adopt Resolution No. 2025-56, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Appointing Jason Schmitt as City Treasurer and Setting the Salary Rate and Assigning Certain Benefits for the Appointed City Treasurer," as amended to disband the City Council Ad Hoc Committee created to interview applicants. The motion carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Twining, Kennedy, McKeon, Burns, Van Der Mark, Gruel, and Williams NOES: None ADMINISTERED OATH OF OFFICE TO NEWLY APPOINTED CITY TREASURER Supervisor Janet Nguyen, Orange County Board of Supervisors, administered the Oath of Office for Jason Schmitt as Huntington Beach City Treasurer. Jason thanked Councilmembers for the faith they have placed in him as a steward for Huntington Beach. He stated he has decades of experience as CEO and Fortune 500 senior executive positions. He added his job priorities will be transparency in collecting the taxes and prudence in investing those funds to stretch Huntington Beach's dollars further. He believes it is critical to help everyone save more so they can live better. 47 Council/PFA Regular Meeting and Housing Authority Special Meeting Minutes August 19, 2025, Page 15 of 16 COUNCIL MEMBER ITEMS 28. 25-651 Approved Item Submitted by Mayor Pro Tem McKeon, Councilman Gruel, and Council Woman Van Der Mark — Strategic Activation Opportunities in Huntington Beach Mayor Pro Tem McKeon introduced this item by explaining it is an effort to roll out the red carpet for business in Huntington Beach. He added the current focus is Olympic engagement in key areas: coordination with Olympic organizers and media entities; potential to serve as a location for Olympic media coverage, live broadcasts or IOC-led programming to expand Olympic regional footprint; use of local facilities for training or practice; hosting or supporting international delegation activities; and planning Olympic themed community events. Council Woman Van Der Mark and Councilman Gruel expressed their desire to have a plan in place that can streamline the process and encourage local businesses to actively engage in opportunities to bring Olympic business and visitors to Huntington Beach. The expectation is that a system and procedure will be in place that can also be utilized for on-going opportunities. Mayor Burns thanked Former Councilmember and local business owner Erik Peterson for making the call that really started the ball rolling for this effort. A motion was made by McKeon, second Van Der Mark to direct the City Manager to implement a plan (as described above), in coordination with appropriate City departments and Visit Huntington Beach, to explore opportunities for the City of Huntington Beach to engage in Olympic-related programming, partnerships, and activation efforts leading up to and during the 2028 Summer Olympic Games. The Plan should include development of a policy to streamline the process for Olympic related activities such as use of local public or private facilities for training or practice; beach events; cultural activations and public exhibitions; and Olympic media coverage and community engagement sites. The motion carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Twining, Kennedy, McKeon, Burns, Van Der Mark, Gruel, and Williams NOES: None 29. 25-652 Approved Item Submitted by Council Woman Van Der Mark, Councilman Kennedy, and Councilman Gruel — Sand Replenishment Council Woman Van Der Mark introduced this item by explaining the beach is one of the City's biggest assets and everything possible should be done to protect the beaches. The intent is to ask staff for a Study Session to review the history of sand replenishment and review continuous permitting and funding options. Councilmen Kennedy and Gruel expressed their pride in supporting this important effort to ensure Huntington Beach beaches are properly maintained to preserve the coast, recreation, tourism and ecology. A motion was made by Van Der Mark, second Gruel to direct the City Manager to provide a presentation on sand replenishment at an upcoming Study Session. The presentation should include how the City can advocate at the local, state, and federal levels for support of continuous permitting and funding cycles while collaborating with local coastal agencies. 48 Council/PFA Regular Meeting and Housing Authority Special Meeting Minutes August 19, 2025, Page 16 of 16 The motion carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Twining, Kennedy, McKeon, Burns, Van Der Mark, Gruel, and Williams NOES: None CITY COUNCIL MEMBER REQUESTS Councilman Williams asked that the City Clerk [City Manager] place an agenda item for the next City Council meeting, September 2, 2025, to consider directing the allocation of approximately $1M in projected revenue from Resolution No. 2025-53 to the Fire and Police Departments for public safety enhancements.

Five Points Senior, L.P. (“Owner”) has agreed to increase their affordability covenant extension from one year as proposed on August 19 to three years. Attachment No. 3 contains a memorandum to the Housing Authority Board that outlines the Owner’s plan of action over the next three years and the revised recommended actions for the Housing Authority Board to consider on September 2, 2025. The Huntington Beach Housing Authority (“Authority”) is requested to approve a three-year extension of existing affordability covenants for the Five Points Senior Villas Apartments, a 164-unit senior housing community located at 18651 Florida Street. The extension would maintain existing income restrictions on 48 units (32 very low-income and 16 low/moderate-income) through July 30, 2029. The extension has been requested by the property owner and would be implemented through amendments to the existing Affordable Housing Agreement and Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions. Financial Impact: There is no fiscal impact. Five Points Seniors, L.P. does not have an existing loan or financial obligation to the City. City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™ 77 File #:25-690 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 Revised Recommended Actions: A) Approve the Third Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement by and between the Huntington Beach Housing Authority and Five Points Seniors, L.P. to extend the affordability covenants by three years until July 30, 2029, and direct the City Attorney to revise said Third Amendment to reflect this three-year extension; B) Approve the Second Amendment to the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions by and between the Huntington Beach Housing Authority and Five Points Seniors, L.P. to extend the affordability covenants by three years until July 30, 2029, and direct the City Attorney to revise said Second Amendment to reflect this three-year extension; and, C) Authorize the Housing Authority Executive Director or their designee to execute the Third Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement, the Second Amendment to the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, and all related documents necessary to implement the three -year extension. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the Amendments and let the affordability restrictions expire on July 30, 2026. Analysis: The action being requested is brought forward for consideration by the Huntington Beach Housing Authority, which serves as the housing successor to the former Huntington Beach Redevelopment Agency. Under State law, when redevelopment agencies were dissolved in 2012, housing assets and responsibilities, including monitoring and enforcement of long-term affordability covenants, were transferred to local housing successor agencies. In Huntington Beach, the City Council serves as the governing body of the Housing Authority. The Five Points Senior Villas Project is one such legacy project. Developed in the early 1990s, the 164-unit senior apartment community at 18651 Florida Street includes 48 affordable units restricted to low- and very low-income households. These affordability restrictions were originally imposed through a 1991 Affordable Housing Agreement and a 1993 Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs), both executed by the former Redevelopment Agency. The original affordability period was 30 years, set to expire on July 30, 2023. In 2020, the Housing Authority approved amendments to extend the affordability restrictions by three years, through July 30, 2026. The revised request is to approve another three-year extension, through July 30, 2029. Although it is unusual for a private property owner to request a voluntary extension of affordability restrictions without seeking financial consideration, staff has confirmed that the owner’s request is motivated by two key factors: 1. Avoiding Disruption to Senior Residents: If no extension is approved, the owner would be required by State law to issue formal notices to residents about the upcoming expiration of the affordability period. Given the vulnerable nature of the senior population and the uncertainty that such notices can create, the owner has expressed a desire to avoid causing unnecessary City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 2 of 3 powered by Legistar™ 78 File #:25-690 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 confusion or concern, particularly if the affordability ends up being extended further in the near future. 2. Evaluating Long-Term Options: The owner has indicated they are actively evaluating the long- term future of the property and may bring forward a proposal that includes physical rehabilitation, restructuring, and a long-term affordability extension. The three-year extension provides time for those plans to be finalized and reviewed without allowing the existing affordability covenants to lapse in the interim. The proposed amendments, a Third Amendment to Affordable Housing Agreement and a Second Amendment to the CC&Rs, were prepared by the City Attorney’s office and are included as Attachments 1 and 2 but would need to be updated upon approval by the Housing Authority to reflect the revised three-year extension. Approval of this request allows the Housing Authority to preserve 48 units of affordable senior units for at least three additional years, with no cost to the City and no new obligations created. Staff recommends approval of the proposed amendments to ensure continuity of affordability restrictions while longer-term plans are developed. Environmental Status: This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it is not a project. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 (b), administrative activities that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment are not projects and therefore, not subject to CEQA.

After extensive discussions over the past two weeks, Five Points Senior, L.P. (“Owner”) has agreed to increase their affordability covenant extension from one year as proposed on August 19 to three years. If approved by the Housing Authority, the three-year extension of the affordability covenants would increase the existing term from July 30, 2026 to July 30, 2029. At this time, the Owner is unwilling to commit beyond a three-year extension but as discussed below is open to a longer affordability covenant term in the future. In addition to the extension of the affordability covenants, the Housing Authority requested that the Owner provide a plan of action for the long-term operation of the Project. During this extension period, the Owner intends to evaluate its options for the property and continued partnership with the City. The Owner has indicated they are actively evaluating the long-term future of the property and may bring forward a specific proposal that includes an assessment of existing conditions, physical capital improvements, refinancing, securing a rehabilitation loan from the City, and a longer-term affordability extension (beyond the proposed July 30, 2029 date). The proposed three-year extension provides time for those plans to be finalized and reviewed without allowing the existing affordability covenants to expire in the interim. The proposed activities and timeline are as follows: September 2025 – Housing Authority considers approval of three-year affordability covenants extension for the Project to July 30, 2029. 89 ~ ~ October 2025 – Owner begins preparation of the Assessment of Existing Conditions Report for the Project (completion by March 2026). March 2026 – Owner begins preparation of a Capital Improvement Plan for the Project to address findings in the Assessment of Existing Conditions Report (completion by May 2026). By January 2027 – Owner provides City with refinancing plan for the Project including any proposed housing rehabilitation loan to be provided by City. May 2027 – City provides Owner with financing gap/feasibility analysis and proposed affordability covenant extension of additional years beyond July 30, 2029. June 2027 – Housing Authority Council considers rehabilitation loan agreement with Owner and extension of affordability covenants. August 2027 – Capital rehabilitation improvements commence at Project site and are to be completed by January 2029. July 2029 – Capital rehabilitation improvements are completed and extension of affordability covenants for additional years per rehabilitation loan agreement commences on July 30, 2029. Revised Recommended Actions: A)Approve the Third Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement by and between the Huntington Beach Housing Authority and Five Points Seniors, L.P. to extend the affordability covenants by three years until July 30, 2029, and direct the City Attorney to revise said Third Amendment to reflect this three-year extension; B)Approve the Second Amendment to the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions by and between the Huntington Beach Housing Authority and Five Points Seniors, L.P. to extend the affordability covenants by three years until July 30, 2029, and direct the City Attorney to revise said Second Amendment to reflect this three -year extension; and, C) Authorize the Housing Authority Executive Director or their designee to execute the Third Amendment to the Affordable Housing Agreement, the Second Amendment to the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, and all related documents necessa ry to implement the three-year extension. If approved, the minutes for the September 2, 2025 City Council/Housing Authority agenda will indicate that the item was approved as amended by the above revised recommended actions. 90 City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street, Huntington Beach, CA 92648 File #:25-669 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION SUBMITTED TO:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY:Travis Hopkins, City Manager VIA:Jennifer Villasenor, Director of Community Development PREPARED BY:Christopher Kennedy, Economic Development Project Manager Subject: Approve the Annual Report and Budget for the Huntington Beach Downtown Business Improvement District (District) for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and adopt Resolution No. 2025-51 to continue collecting an annual fee from businesses in the District, with a public hearing scheduled for October 7, 2025 Statement of Issue: The Huntington Beach Downtown Business Improvement District was established by the City Council in 2004 to fund services and improvements that support businesses in the Downtown area. Each year, the City Council is required to approve the District’s Annual Report and Budget and adopt a resolution declaring its intent to levy annual assessments on businesses within the District. This action also sets a public hearing to allow business owners to comment on or protest the assessment. Financial Impact: The District’s proposed Fiscal Year 2025-2026 assessment budget totals approximately $115,000, which is expected to be collected from business assessments. The City’s FY 2025-2026 Operating Budget (Fund 710) includes $125,000 in related revenue and matching expenditures. Although the nonprofit organization that operates the District, Downtown HB, has a total organizational budget of approximately $972,445 for FY 2025-2026, the City Council’s authority is limited to reviewing and approving the portion of the budget funded by business assessments. The remaining revenue comes from other sources, including vendor fees, sponsorships, donations, and event income from Surf City Nights, the Surf City Artisan Fair, and other programs. Recommended Action: A) Approve the Huntington Beach Downtown Business Improvement District Annual Report and Budget for FY 2025-2026; and B) Adopt Resolution No. 2025-51, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Declaring the City’s Intention to Levy an Annual Assessment For Fiscal Year 2025-2026 within the Huntington Beach Downtown Business Improvement District” and schedule a public hearing for City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ 91 File #:25-669 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 Huntington Beach Downtown Business Improvement District” and schedule a public hearing for October 7, 2025, to consider continuation of the District. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the Annual Report and Budget or modify the proposed assessment plan, and/or deny the Resolution. Analysis: Business Improvement Districts are special assessment districts established by local governments to fund services and activities that benefit businesses within a defined area. These services must be in addition to those already provided by the City. Common examples include enhanced cleaning, security, marketing, and special events designed to attract foot traffic and support business vitality. The District was created by the City Council in 2004 under the authority of the California Streets and Highways Code, which governs how Business Improvement Districts are formed, managed, and renewed. This state law outlines the required steps for levying assessments and ensures that funds are spent only on services that directly benefit businesses within the district. It includes approximately 255 businesses in the core Downtown area. Businesses within the District are assessed annually based on factors such as location, size, and business type, with assessment rates ranging from $80 to $1,404 per year, plus a $12 processing fee. Downtown HB, a nonprofit 501(c)(6) corporation formed by Downtown business owners, serves as the City-appointed Advisory Board for the District. Under an agreement with the City, Downtown HB is responsible for managing District funds and overseeing day-to-day operations related to the assessment-funded programs. The organization also coordinates a range of events, promotions, and services that are funded through additional, non-assessment sources. This distinction is important - while the District refers specifically to the City-established assessment district and its associated revenues ($115,000), Downtown HB's full annual operating budget is significantly larger ($972,445) due to revenue generated from events and sponsorships. The City Council only has oversight over the District portion of the budget, not Downtown HB's broader financial operations. As required by state law, an Annual Report has been submitted outlining: ·The improvements and activities proposed for the upcoming year; ·A detailed budget for assessment-funded services; ·Any changes to the boundaries or assessment formula (none proposed); ·Surplus or deficit revenues from prior years; and ·Contributions from non-assessment sources.

Expanded weekend and event coverage began earlier this year. ·Enhanced Maintenance - $21,000 (18%): These funds support additional cleaning and porter services, beyond those provided by the City, especially during busy weekends and large events. ·Holiday Beautification - $25,800 (22%): Downtown is decorated annually with lights, snowflakes, and a holiday tree on Main Street. This year, the program will expand with new decorations through the fourth block. ·Marketing - $10,000 (9%): Supports digital campaigns, social media, website updates, and email communications to promote Downtown businesses and events. ·Community Events - $18,000 (16%): Funds annual public events such as the Independence Day Block Party, Surf City Spooktacular, and Magic on Main Street, which increase visitation and strengthen community engagement. ·CRM Software - $3,000 (3%): Supports the District’s stakeholder database and vendor management tools, helping track participation and improve outreach. ·Financial Services - $2,200 (2%): Covers third-party accounting services to ensure transparency, accuracy, and compliance in the District’s financial reporting. Downtown HB also maintains approximately $163,570 in reserves, which are available for future one- time projects, seasonal needs, or economic emergencies affecting the Downtown area. State law requires the City Council to adopt a Resolution of Intention and set a public hearing date City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 3 of 4 powered by Legistar™ 93 File #:25-669 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 State law requires the City Council to adopt a Resolution of Intention and set a public hearing date (October 7, 2025) before levying assessments for the upcoming year. During the hearing, business owners may submit written or oral protests. If owners representing 50% or more of the total assessments protest, the District may not be renewed for one year.

The initial Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was established in 2013, with a total value of $154,000. The BID recently sent out a Request for Proposals to increase the steam cleaning and porter services area to include 6th Street commercial, 5th Street both sides, Pacific Coast Highway from to 1st Street and 3rd Street commercial. After reviewing the proposals, Malco was selected to continue the Maintenance Services contract. Based on discussion with the City Council, Malco is now steam cleaning the sidewalks on Monday and Thursday nights. The costs associated with the maintenance contract have surpassed the originally stipulated amount in the MOU. To address these supplementary expenses, the Public Works department has formally requested additional funding and in addition, the BID has increased funding. In the year 2022, a decision was reached to eliminate the administrative fee that was previously incorporated within the agreement. Instead, these funds were redirected to increase maintenance contract costs. The funding of the enhanced maintenance from Downtown Huntington Beach has increased over the years from $8,000 to $44,000. The designates funds are earmarked for specific purposes related to enhanced maintenance. These funds can be utilized to bridge the gap between the actual maintenance expenses and the amount specified in the existing MOU. Downtown Huntington Beach has also allocated additional funds specifically for the purpose of hiring additional maintenance porters within the Downtown during events such as the 4th of July, US Open of Surfing and the Pacific Air Show. This proactive measure is intended to enhance the overall upkeep and functionality of the district during these events. 2025 -2026 ANNUAL REPORT Page 6 105 MAINTENANCE SIDEWALK CLEANING MAP Yellow – Daily Porter Services Red – Weekly Steam Cleaning Blue/Green – Monthly and as needed Steam Cleaning 2025 -2026 ANNUAL REPORT Page 7 106 SURF CITY NIGHTS TUESDAY NIGHTS DOWNTOWN HUNTINGTON BEACH WEEKLY EVENTS Tuesday ’s Surf City Nights Certified Farmers' Market and Street Fair is a draw for locals and visitors to Main Street.

The program’s goal is to create an environment where all visitors can enjoy their time in Downtown Huntington Beach. The A mbassadors communicate through WhatsApp. The WhatsApp is for all restaurant/bar managers and owners and bar security. The Ambassador program, funded by the Assessments and Visit Huntington Beach, has proven to be a valuable asset to Downtown. The Ambassadors have been actively involved in various activities, including: Regular Patrolling - The Ambassadors patrol the Downtown, maintaining a visible presence and establishing rapport with individuals in the community. Observation and Reporting - The Ambassadors observe and report any potential safety concerns, disturbances, or other incidents in the area. Collaboration with HBPD - The Ambassadors worked closely with the HBPD Downtown Detail to address safety-related matters effectively. Assistance and Guidance - The Ambassadors provide assistance and guidance to visitors, answering questions, provide directions and offer recommendations for local attractions. The Ambassadors’ commitment to safety, community engagement, and collaboration with HBPD has made a positive impact on Downtown and increased the positive image of Downtown. ENHANCED MAINTENANCE The Downtown District is a hub for both locals and visitors, especially during peak seasons and major events. Downtown Huntington Beach takes proactive measures to ensure cleanliness and a welcoming atmosphere. Funds are allocated for additional services during peak seasons and events, as well as to cover the difference between the City of Huntington Beach MOU and the current maintenance contract. Providing a positive and memorable experience for all attendees is essential and reinforces Downtown reputation as a vibrant and welcoming destination. This year, the enhanced maintenance has increased the area for steam cleaning and porter services seven days a week. The entire BID Assessment area now receives the services from Malco.

Our strategic approach to marketing, which includes utilizing various communication channels and organizing community events, has allowed us to engage stakeholders effectively and establish a strong brand identity for Downtown Huntington Beach. Assessment Fees are used for advertising and marketing programs, including website, social media and email outreach. A new Social Media Consultant will be retained for enhancing our marketing capabilities. COMMUNITY EVENTS Community Events such as the Independence Day Block Party, Surf City Spooktacular, and Magic on Main Street have become highly anticipated annual gatherings. These events have not only increased exposure but have also created memorable experiences, engaged our community, and enhanced the Downtown Huntington Beach brand. A new community event will be planned for the off-season to attract local residents to visit Downtown. CRM In FY 2022-2023, The Huntington Beach City Council recommended that BID adopt a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) program. A CRM serves as a tool for the organization's stability and longevity, benefiting all stakeholders. The benefits of CRM include: Data centralization, encompassing contact information, communication history, and other pertinent details. This comprehensive view of customer data guarantees up to date information, enabling the organization to identify and address potential issues proactively before they escalate. Improved stakeholder relationships, facilitated by a central database that provides a better understanding of their needs and preferences, consequently enabling more personalized interactions. Efficient marketing campaigns, empowered by tailored marketing messages specifically targeted at distinct stakeholder groups, thus leading to heightened engagement. FINANCIAL SERVICES Monthly financial services by a third-party CPA, bank fees, and QuickBooks have streamlined our financial operations and enhanced transparency. PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT PROJECT Collaborate with the City Council to develop a Public Improvement Project in Downtown Huntington Beach for the new fiscal year. 2025 -2026 ANNUAL REPORT Page 13 112 • • • STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION 2025 -2026 ANNUAL REPORT Page 14 113 Huntington Beach Downtown Business Improvement Distri ct Statement of Financial Position ASSETS Current Assets Bank Acco unts 1020 First Bank -Main Acct 1030 First Bank · MM 1040 First Bank -Maintenance t 050 Assessment Checking Acct Total Bank Accounts Other Current Assets 1330 Prepaid Rent Advance to Assessments Accou nt Undeposlted Funds Total Other Current Assets Total Current Assets Fixed Assets 1640 Machinery & Equipment 1660 Office Equipment 1670 Computers 1700 Accumulated Depreciation Total Fixed Assets TOTAL ASSETS LIABILITIES AND EQUITY liabilit ies Current Liabilities Other Current liabilities 2080 Payroll C learing 2100 Payroll Tax Payable As of May 31 , 2025 California Department of Tax and Fee Administration Payable Total Other Current Uabilrties Total Current Liabilities Long-Term Liabilities 2 400 Notes Payable • SBA EIOL Total Long-Term Liabilities Total Uablllties Eq uity 3100 Unrestricted Net Assets Retained Earnings Net Revenue Total Equity TOTAL LIABILITIES AND EQUITY TOTAL 202,381.16 163,570.44 ·11,683.67 0.00 $3S4,267.93 500.00 47,000.00 880.50 $48,380.50 $402,6413.43 11,651.68 538.74 2,931 .66 -15,122 .08 $0.00 $402,6413.43 -185.08 -888.39 0 .00 $·1,073.47 $ ·1,073.47 150,000.00 $1 50,000.00 $148,926.53 184,878.28 ·2 1,727.16 90,570.78 $253,721.90 $402,6413 .43 PROFIT AND LOSS STATEMENT 2025 -2026 ANNUAL REPORT Page 15 114 Huntington Beach Down t own Business Improvement District Budg et vs .

The annual report contains a proposed work plan, a detailed budget for the upcoming year, a summary of accomplishments, and the following information: Proposed changes in the boundaries of the parking and business improvement areas or in any of the benefit zones within the area in FY 2025-2026 (no proposed changes) Improvements and activities to be provided for FY 202 5-2026 (page 11) The estimate of the cost of providing improvements and the activities for FY 2025-2026 (page 11) Method and basis of levying the assessment for FY 2025-2026 (page 4 & 5, under BID Member Overview and Assessment Chart) Amount of any surplus or deficit revenues to be carried over from previous year (page 19) Amount of additional contributions to be made from sources other than assessments (page 17, under Budget) The annual assessment process requires City actions, including two City Council meetings, where the City Council must adopt resolutions approving the assessment for the upcoming year. 1st City Council Meeting (Tuesday, September 2, 2025) Presentation of the FY 2025-2026 Annual Report and proposed budget and action by Council on a Resolution of Intention to levy assessments Public Notice Publish Resolution of Intention to Levy an Annual Assessment in a newspaper (at least 7 days prior to the public hearing) 2nd City Council Meeting (Tuesday, October 7, 2025) Public hearing on the annual assessment and to receive protests against levy of assessments and Council action confirming the levy of assessments At or before the public hearing, all members of the District and public are welcome to protest the annual assessment. Each protest vote is weighted based on the amount of the assessment paid by the business. If the City receives written protests totaling 50% or more of the total assessment, the assessment will not be levied for that year. Even if there is not an assessment for a particular year, the Downtown BID remains, and the annual process to levy the assessment will start over in the next year. 2025 -2026 ANNUAL REPORT Page 18 117 • • • • • • • • • PUBLIC HEARING PROCESS How can I provide Public Hearing Comments For or Against the Assessment? At the annual public hearing, all members of the District and the public are welcome to speak to the City Council regarding the annual assessment. A protest against the levy assessment may be: made orally or in writing made at the public hearing; however, in order to count in calculating whether businesses paying 50% or more of the proposed assessments are against the assessment, a protest must be in writing and received before the public hearing Each written protest must be received by the City Clerk no later than the public hearing. Written protest against the benefit assessments to be levied may be: mailed to the City Clerk of the City of Huntington Beach at 2000 Main Street, Huntington Beach, California 92648 emailed to juan.esquivel@surfcity-hb.org (Assistant City Clerk) with the subject line: Downtown BID Assessment Protest submitted to the City Clerk before the public hearing Each written protest must be filed by an owner of a business located within the District and signed by the person shown on the official records of the City as being the owner or designated agent of that business. For purposes of District protests, the “official records” of the City are the City business license database. If the person signing the protest is not shown on the official records of the City of Huntington Beach as the owner of the business, then the protest shall contain or be accompanied by written evidence that the person is the “designated agent” for the corporation or entity. A written protest may be withdrawn from record at any time before the conclusion of the public hearing. If there are a large number of written protests submitted on a timely basis, the City Council has the option to close the public hearing and then continue the matter to its next regularly scheduled meeting to allow for a thorough counting of the submitted written protests. If written protests have been timely submitted by the owners of the businesses within the District that will pay fifty percent (50%) or more of the total assessments of the entire District, then no further proceedings to levy the assessments shall occur for the FY 2024-2025 year and any new proceedings to levy assessments shall not be undertaken again for a period of at least one (1) year from the date of the finding of the 50% or more written protest by the City Council. If the 50% or more written protest is only as to an improvement or activity proposed in the annual report, then that type of improvement or activity shall not be included in the upcoming year. 2025 -2026 ANNUAL REPORT Page 19 118 • • • • BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND COMMITTES 2025 -2026 ANNUAL REPORT Page 20 2024-2025 COMMITTEES Ad-Hoc Bylaws Committee: o Nicole Llido, Darrick Hearn Finance & Governance Committee: o Moe Kanoudi, Kari Ivey, Darrick Hearn Marketing Committee: o Chair PT Townend Nominating Committee: Susie Smith, o Stephanie Wilson, Nate Bernal Ad-Hoc Surf City Nights/Artisan Fair o Committee: Moe Kanoudi, Kari Ivey, o Darrick Hearn EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE President: Moe Kanoudi, Main Street Eyeware Treasurer: Kari Ivey, Second Floor Secretary: Darrick Hearn, Sandy’s Beach Shack BOARD OF DIRECTORS Bob Bolen, Huntington Beach Realty Nicole Llido, Visit Huntington Beach Peter "PT" Townend, International Surfing Museum Susie Smith, Makin Waves Salon For additional information and comments, please contact: HB Downtown at (714)-536-8300 Email: info@hbdowntown.com Website: www.HBDowntown.com 119 Exhibit B: Map of the District, Assessment Schedule, and Businesses to be Assessed 120 DISTRICT BOUNDARY MAP FY 2025-2026 121 H1111ti11gto11 Beach Dow11to11'11 Busi11ess l111prove111e11t District Bou11daries a11d Be11ejit Zo11es 1 & 2 ft.JRklOf1 AYt Efm1i.

The objective is to improve officer and public safety by providing alternative non-lethal options that minimize the risk of injury while restoring order. Financial Impact: The requested items will be funded through the department’s Special Operations Fund. The department plans to purchase up to 100 units of each item over time; however, not all purchases will occur within a single fiscal year. The estimated cost for 100 40mm Aerial Flash-Bangs is $4,800, at approximately $48 per unit. For the inert blast balls, two models are under consideration: the standard Rubber Ball at $59.69 each, totaling $5,969, and the Rubber Ball with Safety Clip at $63.89 each, totaling $6,389. All purchases will be made incrementally and within the department’s existing budget. Recommended Action: Approve the implementation of aerial flashbangs and inert blast balls as authorized non-lethal tools for use by the Huntington Beach Police Department during critical incident response. Alternative Action(s): Do not approve and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Recent events have highlighted the need for enhanced tools to address volatile crowd situations that pose a risk to public safety, officer safety, and property. Aerial flashbangs and inert blast balls are designed to create loud noise and bright flashes of light, temporarily disorienting individuals without causing permanent harm. Their use is intended to facilitate peaceful crowd dispersal in high-risk City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ 147 File #:25-636 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 causing permanent harm. Their use is intended to facilitate peaceful crowd dispersal in high-risk situations where other less-lethal options or verbal commands may be ineffective. The Huntington Beach Police Department already maintains specialized tools, including military equipment authorized under AB 481. The use of such equipment is governed by strict protocols, including oversight, training, and legal compliance. These new tools would be available only to trained personnel and deployed based on a clear assessment of the totality of circumstances. The proposed implementation supports the City’s commitment to community safety, de-escalation, and transparency, while providing officers with the flexibility needed to manage unpredictable and dynamic critical incidents. Please see the attached memorandum for the plan of implementation and integration of these tools. 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. Strategic Plan Goal: Goal 8 - Public Safety, Strategy B - Bolster City's emergency management preparedness and response plans to ensure seamless public safety response during crisis events.

Attachment(s): 1.Interdepartmental Memo to the Chief of Police City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 2 of 2 powered by Legistar™ 148 149 To: From: Date: HUNT I NGTON BEACH POLICE DEPARTMENT Eric Parra, Chief of Police Julio Mendez, Lieutenant July 1, 2025 Subject: Implementation of Aerial Flashbangs and Blast Ball (Inert Noise Makers) Purpose: This memo proposes the implementation of aerial flashbangs and inert blast balls as additional tools for effective crowd management and de-escalation during critical incidents. The objective is to enhance public and officer safety by providing non-lethal options that minimize the risk of injury while restoring order. Background: Recent incidents have underscored the need for improved methods to safely and effectively disperse crowds, particularly in volatile situations where traditional verbal commands or existing less-lethal options may be insufficient. Aerial flashbangs and inert blast balls produce high- decibel noise and light intended to temporarily disorient groups, creating an opportunity for peaceful dispersal without causing lasting harm. The Huntington Beach Police Department (HBPD) maintains various specialized tools, including military equipment as defined by AB 481, to support its mission of providing the highest level of service to our community. Possession of this equipment does not mean it will be used indiscriminately; instead, HBPD recognizes that critical incidents are often unpredictable and dynamic, requiring flexible options to resolve situations safely. The deployment of military equipment is strictly controlled, limited to authorized personnel, and used only when necessary , based on the totality of circumstances , public safety considerations, officer safety, and compliance with state and federal law. Training: On May 14, 2025, HBPD's Mobile Field Force and Mounted Enforcement Unit officers participated in joint training at the George Ingalls Equestrian Event Center in Norco, California. This collaborative training was conducted in partnership with the Mobile Field Force Geographic Team (MFFGT) and the Orange County Regional Mounted Enforcement Unit (OCRMEU), the training focused on coordinated crowd control tactics, integration exercises , and deployment of less-lethal munitions. Certification training, led by the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department Sheriffs Response Team (LASD-SRT), covered preparation, tactics, and deployment of two specialized devices: the Aerial Burst 40mm Flashbang and the Rubber Blast Ball (inert). The aerial flashbang is launched via 40mm launcher, while the rubber blast ball is hand deployed. Both are area- deployed tools used to produce loud noise to distract and encourage crowd compliance without direct targeting of individuals. These devices are not considered a "use of force" since they are designed for area effect rather than individual impact. 1 150 Implementation Overview: To successfully integrate these new tools for crowd control, the following implementation procedures are recommended. 1 . Policy Development: o Draft comprehensive guidelines defining authorized use, prioritizing de-escalation and public safety. o Establish clear criteria for deployment, including instances of violent crowd behavior, significant property damage, or situations involving a declared unlawful assembly. o Require supeNisor approval prior to deployment, except in exigent circumstances. 2 . Training: o Mandate training for all personnel involved in crowd management, covering safe handling, tactical deployment, effects on crowds , and medical considerations. o Use scenario-based e x ercises to reinforce sound decision-making under stress. 3 . Equipment Accountability: o A ssign devices to designated Mobile Field Force supeNisors or specialized teams. o Maintain detailed inventory and deployment records. o Require documentation of every deployment through standardized after-action reports . 4. Operational Deployment: o Store devices securely in response vehicles assigned to pre-planned and spontaneous crowd control operations. o Limit deployment to trained personnel operating under supeNision . o Prioritize de-escalation, including issuing clear verbal warnings when feasible . 5 . Community Outreach and Transparency: o Uphold transparency by sharing information about equipment, deployment policies, and training efforts with the community. o Engage residents at community events, including open houses, citizens' academies , Coffee with a Cop, and other outreach opportunities . o Display the department's inventory of military equipment in compliance with AB 481 requirements . 6. Oversight and Reporting: o Conduct command-level reviews of all deployments to ensure compliance and identify training or policy improvements. o Include data on deployments, circumstan ce s, and outcomes in annu al Military Equipment Reports submitted to the City Coun cil. o En s ure adherence to all applicable laws, departmental po licies, and accountability measures. 7 . Benefits: o Reduces reliance on physical force by allowing officers to safely create distance and disperse aggressive o r non-compliant crowds . o Decreases the risk of injury to community members and offi cers compared to impact-based less-lethal tools. o Enhance overall safety with controlled , non-impact alternatives that help restore order while minimizing harm. 2 151 Next Steps: Request City Council approval to adopt this implementation plan and authorize the deployment of these devices. Conclusion: This implementation plan provides a safe, effective, and accountable approach for managing critical incidents involving large or aggressive crowds. By adopting these tools and policies, the City of Huntington Beach can better protect the safety of the public, officers, and property, while maintaining transparency and community trust.

The Airshow Event Agreement reduces Pacific Airshow’s parking allocation to approximately 3,000 parking spaces, providing use of other parking spaces for general public use. Beginning in 2030, the City will recover $10 per parking space and $100 per RV camping space sold by Pacific Airshow during event dates. The $10 per space retained by the City shall be automatically increased by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) each year starting in 2031. At the December 20, 2022, City Council meeting, Council directed City Attorney’s Office to conduct an Environmental Impact Report for the Pacific Airshow. The EIR was completed as part of the $850,000 on-call contract with ESA. City Council is asked to appropriate an additional $250,000 from one-time Waterfront Settlement funds to the ESA contract for the completion of the EIR and for ongoing mitigation monitoring. City departmental budgets will absorb staffing costs related to the Airshow in the amount of approximately $300,000 annually. Recommended Action: A) Certify Environmental Impact Report No. 25-003 as adequate and complete in accordance with CEQA requirements and adopt Resolution No. 2025-54, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Certifying the Environmental Impact Report (SCH#2024020006) for the Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project” (Attachment No. 1); and B) Approve CEQA Findings of Fact with a Statement of Overriding Considerations (Attachment No. 2); and C) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the “Airshow Event Agreement Between the City of Huntington Beach and Pacific Airshow, LLC” for the management and operation of the Pacific Airshow. D) Provide authority to the City Manager and City Attorney to amend On-Call Contract for ESA to appropriate an additional $250,000 for the Airshow Environment Impact Report and ongoing mitigation monitoring, bringing the on-call contract total to $1,100,000. Alternative Action(s): The City Council may make the following alternative motion(s): 1. Do not certify Environmental Impact Report No. 25-003 as adequate and complete in accordance with CEQA requirements and do not approve the CEQA Findings of Fact with a Statement of Overriding Considerations. 2. Continue Environmental Impact Report No. 25-003 and direct staff accordingly. City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 2 of 11 powered by Legistar™ 153 File #:25-623 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 3. Do not approve the agreement with Pacific Airshow, LLC, and consider approving terms for the 2025 Pacific Airshow Specific Event permit or direct staff accordingly. Analysis: A.PROJECT PROPOSAL: Applicant: Pacific Airshow, LLC, 5252 Bolsa Avenue, Huntington Beach, CA 92649 Environmental Impact Report No. 25-003 to analyze the potential environmental impacts associated with the Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach. As described in the Project Description of the EIR, the Pacific Airshow would provide a spectacle- scale airshow in Huntington Beach that attracts attendees throughout the Southern California area (and perhaps beyond). The proposed project would feature civilian and military aircraft flybys and aerial acrobatics, air racing, helicopter and aircraft landing/runway displays comprised of temporary acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) foundation (stadium flooring) or wood or aluminum flooring, electric vehicle (EV) and drone displays with hangars and aerial competitions and drone shows, displays of other emerging aviation/mobility technology, and visitor-serving entertainment, services, and amenities (e.g., variety of viewing areas, vehicle and aircraft demonstrations and displays, illustrations, flight simulations, merchandise tents, concessions, food trucks, live music entertainment, wave pool surf competitions, skateboard and bicycle motocross (BMX) bowl competitions, sandcastle building competitions, art installations, and pyrotechnic shows). Future Airshows are anticipated to be held annually for three (3) days to up to five (5) days, generally Friday through Sunday or up to Wednesday through Sunday, with aircraft flight familiarization and flight practice flyovers beginning as early as Monday of the week of the Airshow. Further details of the proposed airshow activities evaluated by EIR No. 25-003, including a description of the Show Center Area and Airshow Performance Area locations, is provided in Chapter 2 -Project Description of the EIR (https://www.huntingtonbeachca.gov/business_detail_T9_R677.php). B.ANALYSIS: EIR Overview The EIR provides a detailed analysis of potential impacts associated with the Pacific Airshow. It is intended to serve as an informational document for decision makers and identifies significant or potentially significant environmental effects, as well as ways in which those effects can be reduced to less than significant levels, whether through the proposed project (as described in the EIR) or implementation of mitigation measures (MMs). In a practical sense, EIRs function as a technique for fact-finding, allowing the operator, the City and the public an opportunity to collectively review and evaluate baseline conditions and project impacts through a process of full disclosure. The Draft EIR was available to the public, public agencies, and City Council for review for a 45- day public comment period starting February 20, 2025. The Final EIR, including the Response to Comments and all text changes resulting from the public comment period was posted on the City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 3 of 11 powered by Legistar™ 154 File #:25-623 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 Comments and all text changes resulting from the public comment period was posted on the City’s website prior to the public hearing on the EIR. The required CEQA procedure that was followed is outlined below: February 1, 2024 - Notice of Preparation was filed with the State Clearinghouse and available for public review and comment for 30 days. February 21-22, 2024 - Public Scoping Meetings were held to solicit comments related to the issue areas to be studied in the EIR. February 20, 2025 - April 7, 2025 - Notice of Completion was filed with the State Clearinghouse and Draft EIR was available for public review and comment for 45 days. The Draft EIR discusses potential adverse impacts in the areas described below. The direct, indirect and cumulative impacts of the project are addressed, as are the impacts of project alternatives. As required by CEQA, the Final EIR, which includes the Draft EIR and Appendices, comments received on the Draft EIR, responses to all comments received on the Draft EIR, and text changes to the Draft EIR, was distributed to all agencies that commented on the Draft EIR on August 8, 2025, ten days prior to certification of the EIR by the City Council. Scope of EIR Analysis During the Initial Study the following topics pursuant to CEQA guidelines were determined to have a less than significant impact or no potentially significant impact and were scoped out: Aesthetics, Agriculture and Forestry Resources, Cultural Resources, Energy, Geology/Soils, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hydrology/Water Quality, Land Use/Planning, Mineral Resources, Population/Housing, Public Services, Recreation, Utilities/Service Systems, and Wildfire. Project Impacts The Draft EIR studied the following topics and concluded that project implementation would result in no impact, less than significant impacts, or potentially significant impacts that could be reduced to a less than significant level with incorporation of mitigation measures: ·Biological Resources ·Hazards and Hazardous Materials (with mitigation) ·Transportation ·Tribal Cultural Resources The EIR determined that project implementation would result in significant and unavoidable impacts in the following areas: ·Air Quality ·Hazards and Hazardous Materials (Emergency Response/Evacuation) ·Noise Mitigation Measures City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 4 of 11 powered by Legistar™ 155 File #:25-623 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 To mitigate impacts the following mitigation measures have been incorporated into the EIR: Hazards and Hazardous Materials HAZ-1: A qualified avian biologist will conduct one Wildlife Hazard Site Visit (WHSV) prior to the start of the annual Airshow (beginning in 2024) following the protocol developed by the FAA in the Protocol for the Conduct and Review of Wildlife Hazard Site Visits, Wildlife Hazard Assessments, and Wildlife Hazard Management Plans (Federal Aviation Administration, Advisory Circular 150/5200-38, August 2018 to evaluate potential risk of wildlife strikes at airports, specifically for the proposed temporary aircraft landing pad on the beach during all future Airshow events. The WHSV shall include field observations conducted over one day at dawn, noon, and dusk from a variety of pre-determined locations to ensure complete visual coverage of the location of the temporary runway and immediate surroundings. All signs of birds, mammals, habitat attractants, and wildlife/habitat relationship observations shall be recorded. A wildlife hazard site visit memorandum shall be prepared and include a list of wildlife species or signs observed during the surveys, federal and state status of the species observed, habitat features that may encourage wildlife, natural and artificial wildlife attractants, strike data analysis, and recommendations to reduce wildlife hazards. Recommendations may include developing a long-term management strategy that includes wildlife hazard management and/or reduction in flights under 500 feet above ground level. HAZ-2: A qualified biological monitor will be on-site during event performances for the duration of the event (3-5 days) to document bird activity during aircraft flyovers and take-off and landing within the Show Center Area. Biological monitoring will also inform recommendations to reduce wildlife hazards. Based on monitoring observations, recommendations may include the following standard best management practices such as properly disposing of trash to avoid attracting wildlife to the Show Center Area and/or employing means of harassment (e.g., lasers) to disperse birds. Noise NOI-1: The applicant shall implement the following measures for the duration of the event: ·The nearest speaker shall be placed at least 475 feet away from any nearby sensitive receptor and any subsequent speakers shall be separated from other speakers by 25 feet parallel to Pacific Coast Highway. Speakers shall also be positioned in a manner that would not point directly towards any nearby sensitive receptor and, instead, face the beach/ocean. ·A temporary noise barrier of at least 10 feet in height and constructed of plywood or using a sound blanket shall be installed on public property nearest to the sensitive receptors to the west of the proposed music festival area (Huntington Pacific Beach House Condo complex at 701 Pacific Coast Highway). The temporary noise barriers shall block the line-of -sight between the music festival attendees and similarly elevated ground-level noise- sensitive receptors. Biological Resources As part of the project description, the airshow operator is proposing the following project design City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 5 of 11 powered by Legistar™ 156 File #:25-623 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 feature to ensure that impacts to nesting birds remain less than significant: •Pre-airshow activities would occur at least one week beyond the end of the identified nesting season for the California least tern and the western snowy plover and well beyond the end of the identified nesting season for the light-footed Ridgway’s rail and general avian species. • Monitoring efforts will be conducted before and during the Airshow to survey for nests and provide measures to avoid potential impacts. • Daily briefings have and will continue to occur, although the outcome of those briefings cannot be guaranteed. While not a mitigation measure, the project design feature is incorporated into the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (Attachment No. 1). Significant and Unavoidable Impacts Using mitigation measures and project design features identified in the EIR, potentially adverse impacts associated with the project can be mitigated to a less-than-significant level. However, there are three areas for which significant adverse environmental impacts cannot be eliminated through mitigation measures. The significant adverse environmental impacts are as follows: Air quality Daily mobile sources emissions from additional vehicle trips associated with new activities proposed for the airshow (e.g. - nightly concerts) would exceed the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) thresholds of significance for the following criteria pollutants: volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon monoxide (CO), and nitrogen oxides (NOx). While it should be noted that existing mobile source emissions already exceed the SCAQMD thresholds of significance for these pollutants, there are no feasible mitigation measures to reduce the additional emissions from vehicle sources below the significance thresholds. As such, impacts would be significant and unavoidable. However, projected emissions from expanded airshow activities in future years would decline as vehicle technology improves and older vehicles are replaced with newer vehicles that emit fewer pollutants. Hazards and Hazardous Materials Due to the volume of people anticipated on and near the beach during the Airshow, in the event of an emergency, evacuation times would be increased and could affect emergency access. The circumstances resulting in the need to evacuate either the event area or the City will differ based upon the nature and magnitude of the emergency (fire, earthquake, tsunami), the location of the emergency (local or regional), and the timing relative to the event (are people coming in or leaving). The population group that attends the event is difficult to identify, as there is limited formal ticketing (only the reserved grandstands and beach). While many people gather near the beach, attendees also view from rooftops/balconies, restaurants, and other venues throughout the City. The ambiguity around the event population (size and location), combined with the range of potential evacuation events, results in unquantifiable evacuation times. The increased population as a result of the Project, combined with all other population unrelated to the Project, including residents, employees, students, and visitors, would likely all be concurrently subject to evacuation orders in case of an emergency event. Given the wide range of possible emergency conditions, difficulty in quantifying the number and location of population added by the Project, the probable City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 6 of 11 powered by Legistar™ 157 File #:25-623 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 difficulty in quantifying the number and location of population added by the Project, the probable increase in evacuation times, and the lack of significance threshold to measure such effects, the Project is conservatively considered to result in significant and unavoidable impacts to emergency access. Noise Implementation of new airshow activities, specifically a multi-day music festival with amplified speakers, would represent a new source of noise and vibration that could result in the generation of a substantial temporary increase in ambient noise and vibration levels in the vicinity of the Project in excess of standards established by the City. Mitigation Measure NOI-1 would be required to be implemented to reduce noise from the event. However, even with implementation of mitigation, noise levels would still exceed significance thresholds. Since it is not feasible to locate speakers further away from noise-sensitive receptors beyond the mean high tide line to further reduce impacts, the impact is determined to be significant and unavoidable. Alternatives The EIR also presents alternatives to the proposed project that could avoid or reduce the severity of impacts described in the topics above as required by CEQA. Three alternatives were evaluated in the EIR and described below: ·Alternative 1 (No Project/No Airshow) - This alternative assumes no project which is an alternative that is required under CEQA. ·Alternative 2 (2023 Airshow) - Under this alternative the annual event would take place over 3 days and would not include a music festival, helicopter and aircraft runway/display, skateboard/BMX competition, pyrotechnic shows, sandcastle building competition, and beach camping among others. ·Alternative 3 (Reduced Project) - This alternative would include a reduced size of the Airshow with no military aircraft or equivalent noise-producing jets being included in the Airshow. This alternative is aimed at reducing noise as well as evacuation impacts due to decreased number of employees and attendees. The No Project/No Airshow Alternative is considered the environmentally superior alternative as it would avoid or reduce most of the potential impacts associated with the Airshow. However, it would not meet the objectives of the project. CEQA guidelines require that if the No Project Alternative is determined to be the environmentally superior alternative, an environmentally superior alternative must also be identified among the remaining alternatives. As such, the 2023 Airshow Alternative would result in the fewest environmental impacts as compared to the project and is considered the environmentally superior alternative. However, this alternative would not meet all the project objectives. Statement of Overriding Considerations Environmental impacts associated with project implementation may not always be mitigated to a level considered less than significant. In such cases, a Statement of Overriding Considerations City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 7 of 11 powered by Legistar™ 158 File #:25-623 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 level considered less than significant. In such cases, a Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOC) must be prepared prior to approval of a project in accordance with CEQA guidelines. CEQA requires the decision-making agency to balance, as applicable, the economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits, including regionwide or statewide environmental benefits of a proposed project against its unavoidable environmental risks when determining whether to approve the project. If the specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits, including regionwide or statewide environmental benefits of a proposed project outweigh the unavoidable adverse environmental effects, the adverse environmental effects may be considered acceptable. When the lead agency approves a project which results in the occurrence of significant effects that are identified in the Final EIR but are not avoided or substantially lessened, the agency shall state in writing the specific reasons to support its actions based on the Final EIR and/or other information in the public record. Because implementation of the proposed project would create significant unavoidable impacts as described above in the areas of Air Quality, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, and Noise, a Statement of Overriding Considerations (SOC) is provided in Attachment No. 2, which describes the specific reasons for approving the project. Public Comments on the Draft EIR and Errata Changes During the public review period, the City of Huntington Beach received a total of 16 comment letters on the EIR: four from state agencies, two from local agencies, five from organizations, and five from other interested parties and individuals. The final EIR includes responses to all comments that raised an environmental issue. In response to some comments received, the final EIR includes text changes for the purpose of clarification or correction. The text changes do not change the conclusions of the EIR analysis. All of the comments are adequately addressed in the Response to Comments section of the final EIR. Summary Environmental Impact Report No. 25-003 serves as an informational document with the sole purpose of identifying potential environmental impacts associated with the Pacific Airshow, alternatives that minimize those impacts, and appropriate mitigation measures. The City Council may certify the EIR because it was prepared in accordance with CEQA, is adequate and complete in that it has identified all significant environmental effects of the project, and all significant environmental impacts which can feasibly be mitigated or avoided have been mitigated or avoided.

Mayor ATTEST: APPROVED AS TO FORM: City Clerk City Attorney REVIEWED AND APPROVE D: City Manager of Community Development Exhibit A: Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program 3 The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 1 MMRP Final Environmental Impact Report August 2025 Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program CEQA Requirements Section 15091(d) and Section 15097 of the CEQA Guidelines require a public agency to adopt a program for monitoring or reporting on the changes it has required in the project or conditions of approval to substantially lessen significant environmental effects. This Mitigation, Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) summarizes the mitigation commitments identified in the Pacific Airshow (Airshow or Project) EIR (State Clearinghouse No. 2024020006). Mitigation measures are presented in the same order as they occur in the Draft EIR. Further, to ensure enforceability of the biological monitoring efforts, a Project Description feature voluntarily is included in the MMRP that requires biological monitoring before and during the Airshow. Because there are no significant impacts associated with the temporary Airshow activities on biological species, biological monitoring is not required as a mitigation measure. The columns in the MMRP table provide the following information: • Mitigation Measure(s): The action(s) that will be taken to reduce the impact to a less-than- significant level. • Implementation, Monitoring, and Reporting Action: The appropriate steps to implement and document compliance with the mitigation measures. • Responsibility: The agency or private entity responsible for ensuring implementation of the mitigation measure. However, until the mitigation measures are completed, the City, as the CEQA Lead Agency, remains responsible for ensuring that implementation of the mitigation measures occur in accordance with the MMRP (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15097(a)). • Monitoring Schedule: The general schedule for conducting each task. Because the proposed project does not include a construction phase, the general schedule is summarized as either “prior to operation” and/or “during operation”.

In accordance with Section 15121 of the State CEQA Guidelines, the Draft EIR identifies the significant environmental effects associated with the Project and ways to minimize the significant environmental effects through mitigation measures or reasonable alternatives to the Project. A Final EIR has also been prepared by the City that consists of a list of persons, organizations, and public agencies commenting on the Draft EIR; comments received on the Draft EIR; responses to those comments; and corrections and additions made to the Draft EIR either in response to a comment or as initiated by City staff. 1.1 Statutory Requirements for Findings CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines (Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15091) states that no public agency shall approve or carry out a project for which an EIR has been certified that identifies one or more significant effects of the project on the environment unless the public agency makes one or more written findings for each significant effect, accompanied by a brief explanation of the rationale of each finding. The possible findings are: 1. Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the Final EIR. 2. Such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and not the agency making the finding. Such changes have been adopted by such other agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency. 3. Specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the Final EIR. The City of Huntington Beach as the lead agency pursuant to CEQA for the Project has made specific written findings regarding each significant impact 1 associated with the Project, which is discussed, along with a presentation of facts in support of the findings, in Section 4, Findings Required Under CEQA. Section 5, Evaluation of Alternatives, provides written findings and facts in support of the findings for each of the alternatives addressed in Chapter 4, Alternatives, of the 1 While not required by CEQA, the Findings (in Section 4.0) also address Findings of No Impact or Less Than Significant Impacts Prior to Mitigation. 169 1.0 Introduction The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 2 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 Draft EIR. Section 6, Findings Regarding the Final EIR, presents findings on disposition of the comments received on the Draft EIR. Chapter 3, Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures, of the Draft EIR describes the potential environmental impacts of the Project and recommends mitigation measures to reduce impacts, where feasible. As discussed in the Draft EIR, implementation of the Project would result in significant impacts related to air quality, hazards and hazardous materials, and noise even with implementation of feasible mitigation measures. For these environmental issues, impacts are considered significant and unavoidable. In accordance with Section 15093(b) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the City has prepared a Statement of Overriding Considerations that states the specific benefits of the Project that outweigh the unavoidable, adverse environmental impacts. Concurrent with the adoption of the Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations, the City will also adopt the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP). This document is organized as follows: Section 1.0, Introduction, provides a brief overview of the Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations. Section 2.0, Procedural Compliance with CEQA, describes the EIR preparation process and the procedural steps that have been followed to comply with CEQA, including public meetings, public comment periods, noticing of the Draft and Final EIRs, and the location where these documents were available for review. Section 3.0, Description of the Project, provides the Project location, the Project Purpose and Objectives, and a summary description of the Project. A complete description of the Project and requested approvals can be found in Chapter 2, Project Description, of the Draft EIR. Section 4.0, Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts, provides the necessary findings to be made for Project-related impacts, including Findings of No Impact or Less Than Significant Impact in the Initial Study/ Notice of Preparation (Subsection 4.1), Findings of No Impact or Less Than Significant Impact in the Draft EIR (Subsection 4.2), Findings Regarding Impacts Determined to Be Mitigated to Less Than Significant Levels (Subsection 4.3), and Findings Regarding Impacts Determined to Be Significant and Unavoidable (Subsection 4.4). Section 5.0, Findings Regarding Cumulative Impacts, provides the necessary findings to be made for cumulative impacts related to the Project. Section 6.0, Findings Regarding Alternatives, provides the necessary findings to be made for the different Project alternatives, including a comparison with the Project and reasons for rejecting the alternatives.

The Show Center Area is the location where primary on-the- ground events and activities of the Airshow take place. Locally, the approximate boundaries of the Show Center Area from northwest to southeast are 7th Street and Pacific Coast Highway (State Route 1 or SR-1) to Beach Boulevard (State Route 39 or SR-39) and Pacific Coast Highway to the Pacific Ocean, including a portion of the Huntington Beach Pier landward of the State Lands Commission mean high tide line. The Airshow Performance Area, the primary area for civilian and military aircraft flybys and aerial acrobatics, is located adjacent to the Show Center Area over the Pacific Ocean with an east-west length of approximately 3,000 feet from the shoreline and a north-south length of approximately 12,000 feet. A majority of the civilian and military aircraft flybys and aerial acrobatics occur within approximately 500 and 1,500 feet from the shoreline. The Show Center Area and Airshow Performance Area collectively comprise of the Project Site. The Show Center Area consists of the beach, the Huntington Beach Pier, parking lots, commercial/restaurant uses, bicycle and walking trails along Pacific Coast Highway. 3.2 Project Purpose and Objectives A statement of Project objectives and a description of the underlying purpose of the Project is required by CEQA Guidelines Section 15124. The Project objectives and underlying Project purpose are established to guide the lead agency in developing a reasonable range of alternatives to evaluate in the Draft EIR and aid the decision makers in preparing findings or a statement of overriding considerations, if necessary. The underlying purpose of the Project is to provide a spectacle-scale airshow in Huntington Beach that attracts attendees throughout the Southern California area and perhaps beyond. The Project objectives include: • Continue to provide a family-oriented, safe, educational, fun, and entertaining Airshow experience with an emphasis on outdoor lifestyle and popular culture elements. • Continue to provide a gathering place where locals and visitors can come together to enjoy civilian and military aircraft flybys and aerial acrobatics, illustrations, displays, food, and music. • Provide an event that promotes careers and opportunities in the Defense Forces and in aviation. • Provide an event that promotes coastal access. • Continue to promote awareness and use of the Huntington Beach Pier and beaches. • Continue to promote awareness of the Huntington Beach hotels, restaurants, stores, and businesses across the City. • Continue to promote Huntington Beach and Southern California as a welcoming global tourism destination. • Create a net positive direct economic impact on the City and surrounding communities as a result of spending by incremental visiting attendees, the event organizer, and event sponsors. • Increase in tax revenues (i.e., sales tax, transit occupancy tax, and property tax) to the City. 173 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 6 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 • Continue to provide temporary and full-time jobs associated with the Airshow. • Provide an event that reduces potential impacts to the surrounding sensitive habitat including the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve, the Huntington Beach Wetlands, the Magnolia Marsh, and special-status wildlife species such as the federally endangered California least tern and western snowy plover. 3.3 Project Description As permitted by the City’s Specific Event Permit Process, the Airshow has been held annually in the City (Friday through Sunday), during the fall season. Future Airshows are anticipated to be held annually for three (3) days to up to five (5) days, generally Friday through Sunday or up to Wednesday through Sunday, with aircraft flight familiarization and flight practice flyovers beginning as early as Monday of the week of the Airshow. The Airshow does not propose construction of new permanent development; instead, the Project consists of temporary event structures, all of which would be removed immediately following the conclusion of the Airshow. The Project would provide a spectacle-scale airshow in Huntington Beach that attracts attendees throughout the Southern California area (and perhaps beyond) and features civilian and military aircraft flybys and aerial acrobatics, air racing, helicopter and aircraft landing/runway displays comprised of temporary acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) foundation (stadium flooring) or wood or aluminum flooring, electric vehicle (EV) and drone displays with hangars and aerial competitions and drone shows, displays of other emerging aviation/mobility technology, and visitor-serving entertainment, services, and amenities (e.g., variety of viewing areas, vehicle and aircraft demonstrations and displays, illustrations, flight simulations, merchandise tents, concessions, food trucks, live music entertainment, wave pool surf competitions, skateboard and bicycle motocross (BMX) bowl competitions, sandcastle building competitions, art installations, and pyrotechnic shows). The Project would include an event program for the continuation of the Airshow for up to ten (10) additional years beginning from year 2024 through 2034 as permitted by the City’s Specific Event Permit Process. 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts 4.1 Findings of No Impact or Less Than Significant Impact in the Initial Study/ Notice of Preparation The City of Huntington Beach circulated an Initial Study/Notice of Preparation in February 2024 to determine the potentially significant effects of the Project. In the course of this evaluation, it was determined the Project would result in no impact or less than significant impacts (without mitigation) related to several environmental issue areas. In many cases, the determinations of no impact or less than significant impacts were based on the fact the Airshow proposes no new permanent development. Instead, the Project consists of temporary event structures, all of which would be removed immediately following the conclusion of the Airshow. Following each future Airshow, the Project Site would be restored to pre-Project conditions. The Initial Study for the Project is included as Appendix B of the Draft EIR and discusses why the Project would have no impact or less than significant impacts related to the specific 174 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 7 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 environmental issue areas that were not discussed in detail in the Draft EIR.

Refer to Draft EIR pages 3.6-6 through 3.6-7. 4.3 Findings Regarding Impacts Determined to Be Mitigated to Less Than Significant Levels The City of Huntington Beach, having reviewed and considered the information contained in the Final EIR, the Technical Appendices, and the administrative record, finds, pursuant to California Public Resources Code 21081 (a)(1) and CEQA Guidelines 15091 (a)(1) that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the Project, which would avoid or substantially lessen to below a level of significance the following potentially significant environmental effects identified in the Final EIR in the following category: Hazards and Hazardous Materials The potentially significant adverse environmental impact that can be mitigated is summarized below. The City of Huntington Beach finds that this potentially significant adverse impact can be mitigated to a level that is considered less than significant after implementation of mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR. 181 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 14 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 Hazards and Hazardous Materials Impact 3.3-1: For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, the project would not result in a safety hazard or excessive noise for people residing or working in the project area (less than significant impact with mitigation). Refer to Draft EIR pages 3.3-11 through 3.3-12. Most bird strike incidents occur during March through April and August through November when seasonal migration typically occurs. While birds are more likely to be struck during the day due to increased civilian aircraft flights during the day, seasonal migration is generally nocturnal. Airshow flights have historically occurred mid-day (between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM.) which is when the majority of flights would occur. Therefore, because a majority of flights related to the Airshow are not planned to occur at night, the potential for impacts to aircraft from collisions with migratory birds are expected to be less than significant. Although the Show Center Area is located over 2 miles from an airport and, therefore, occurs outside of an existing airport land use plan area, the Project is proposing the creation of a temporary aircraft landing pad within the Show Center Area in 2024. The aircraft movements associated with the temporary landing pad present a potential hazard to Project flight safety, and significantly increases the safety risk caused by bird strikes as compared to past years when the Airshow was only conducting fly-bys over 500 feet above ground level. As noted in the Draft EIR analysis of Impact 3.3-1, 74 percent of bird strikes occur at less than or equal to 500 feet above ground level, 19 percent from 501 to 3,500 feet above ground level, and 7 percent above 3,500 feet above ground level. This study also found that passerines, gulls/terns (Laridae), doves (Columbidae), and raptors (including vultures) were the species groups most frequently struck. During the Airshow, most aircraft are expected to fly over 500 feet above ground level; however, select aircraft are planned to land on a temporary landing pad located within the Show Center Area requiring them to fly below 500 feet in altitude, which increases the potential for a bird strike. As identified in Draft EIR Table 3.3-1, common wildlife species that are high risk to flight safety, including mourning dove, killdeer, barn swallow, European starling, rock dove, and red- tailed hawk, were observed within the Wildlife Hazard Analysis (WHA) Study Area.2 More specifically, various gull species were observed within the Show Center Area during 2023 biological monitoring prior to increased human activity resulting from the event. Since a temporary aircraft landing pad has never been installed along Huntington Beach, no wildlife strike data resulting from aircraft take-off and landing is available. Therefore, there is the potential for bird strike impacts to common species resulting in increased flight risk during take- off and landing. However, it is expected that a small number of aircraft would take-off and land on the temporary aircraft landing pad and 2023 biological monitoring demonstrated that increased human activity within the Show Center Area decreased the presence of wildlife on the beach. Additionally, Airshow flights have historically occurred midday (between 10 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.) when bird flight activity is lower than it would be at dawn or dusk. While impacts to aircraft may occur as a result of aircraft landing on the beach, with implementation of Mitigation Measures 2 The Show Center Area and Airshow Performance Area are directly adjacent and collectively occur within the Wildlife Hazard Analysis (WHA) Study Area. 182 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 15 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 HAZ-1 and HAZ-2, impacts related to flight safety are anticipated to be less than significant as the proposed mitigation measures provide specific measures to reduce wildlife hazards. Mitigation Measure HAZ-1: A qualified avian biologist will conduct one Wildlife Hazard Site Visit (WHSV) prior to the start of the annual Airshow (beginning in 2024) following the protocol developed by the FAA in the Protocol for the Conduct and Review of Wildlife Hazard Site Visits, Wildlife Hazard Assessments, and Wildlife Hazard Management Plans (Federal Aviation Administration, Advisory Circular 150/5200-38, August 2018 to evaluate potential risk of wildlife strikes at airports, specifically for the proposed temporary aircraft landing pad on the beach during all future Airshow events. The WHSV shall include field observations conducted over one day at dawn, noon, and dusk from a variety of pre-determined locations to ensure complete visual coverage of the location of the temporary runway and immediate surroundings. All signs of birds, mammals, habitat attractants, and wildlife/habitat relationship observations shall be recorded. A wildlife hazard site visit memorandum shall be prepared and include a list of wildlife species or signs observed during the surveys, federal and state status of the species observed, habitat features that may encourage wildlife, natural and artificial wildlife attractants, strike data analysis, and recommendations to reduce wildlife hazards. Recommendations may include developing a long-term management strategy that includes wildlife hazard management and/or reduction in flights under 500 feet above ground level. Mitigation Measure HAZ-2: A qualified biological monitor will be on-site during event performances for the duration of the event (3-5 days) to document bird activity during aircraft flyovers and take-off and landing within the Show Center Area. Biological monitoring will also inform the recommendations to reduce wildlife hazards. Based on monitoring observations, recommendations may include following standard best management practices such as properly disposing of trash to avoid attracting wildlife to the Show Center Area and/or employing means of harassment (e.g., lasers) to disperse birds. Finding: The City finds that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the Project that substantially lessens significant impacts related to flight safety as identified in the Final EIR. With the implementation of Mitigation Measures HAZ-1 and HAZ-2, impacts related to flight safety are anticipated to be less than significant. 4.4 Findings Regarding Impacts Determined to Be Significant and Unavoidable The City of Huntington Beach, having reviewed and considered the information contained in the Final EIR, Technical Appendices, and the administrative record, finds that the Project would result in significant and unavoidable impacts even with implementation of all feasible mitigation measures for the following categories: Air Quality, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, and Noise. 183 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 16 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 Air Quality Impact 3.1-1: The project would result in significant impact if it would result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (significant and unavoidable). Refer to Draft EIR pages 3.1-21 through 3.1-23. For informational purposes, the air quality emissions from existing Airshow vehicle miles traveled (VMT) forecasted for year 2024 and future year 2034 were estimated in the Draft EIR. Regional criteria pollutant emission calculations for volatile organic compounds (VOCs), nitrogen oxides (NOX), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur oxides (SOX), and fine particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5, respectively) for the existing Airshow VMT mobile sources are presented in Table 3.1-6 (below and on page 3.1-22 of the Draft EIR). TABLE 3.1-6 ESTIMATED FORECASTED REGIONAL MOBILE SOURCE EMISSIONS FOR CONTINUATION OF EXISTING AIRSHOW (POUNDS PER DAY) Source VOC NOX CO SO2 PM10 PM2.5 Forecasted Regional Mobile Source Emissions for Continuation of Existing Airshow – Year 2024 530 766 4,938 14 1,193 305 Forecasted Regional Mobile Source Emissions for Continuation of Existing Airshow – Year 2034 359 486 3,241 11 1,191 303 NOTE: Totals may not add up exactly due to rounding in the modeling calculations. Detailed emissions calculations are provided in Appendix C of the Draft EIR. SOURCE: Data compiled by ESA, 2024. Operational criteria pollutant emissions were calculated for future Project Airshow mobile sources associated with additional daily VMT from the expanded night concerts as compared to prior Airshows. The change in operational emissions is based on the additional daily VMT resulting from the expanded night concerts that would occur during the Project’s future Airshows compared to prior Airshows without night concerts. The additional daily VMT as compared to prior Airshows are provided in Section 3.5, Transportation, of the Draft EIR, for the expanded night concerts. Additional details are provided in the Air Quality Calculations in Appendix C of the Draft EIR. The results of the regional criteria pollutant emission calculations for VOC, NOX, CO, SOX, PM10, and PM2.5 for the Project’s mobile sources are presented in Table 3.1 7 (below and on page 3.1-22 of the Draft EIR). As shown in Table 3.1-7, the Project’s operational-related mobile source daily emissions would exceed the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) thresholds of significance for VOC, NOX, and CO. It is also noted that, as shown in Table 3.1-6 above, the operational-related mobile source daily emissions for the airshow (without the proposed expanded night concerts) already exceed the SCAQMD thresholds of significance for VOC, NOX, CO, PM10, and PM2.5. Therefore, the Project’s net regional operational mobile emissions impacts would be potentially significant. 184 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 17 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 It is noted that the mobile source emissions from the additional VMT from the Project’s night concerts would decline in future years as vehicle technology improves and older vehicles are replaced with newer vehicles that emit fewer pollutants.

Yes Yes Yes No No No NOTE: Totals may not add up exactly due to rounding in the modeling calculations. Detailed emissions calculations are provided in Appendix C of the Draft EIR. SOURCE: Data compiled by ESA, 2024. Finding: There are no feasible mitigation measures that would reduce operational VOC, NOX, and CO emissions for vehicular sources to below the significance thresholds. Vehicles would be utilized by Project attendees and employees to future Project Airshow events and the Project has no ability to regulate the personal choices made by future Project attendees and employees who may purchase and use any vehicles legally sold to travel to and from the site. In addition, as stated in Draft EIR Section 3.5, Transportation, there are no additional feasible mitigation measures to further reduce Project VMT. Thus, there are no additional feasible mitigation measures that would reduce operational VOC, NOX, and CO emissions and impacts related to regional VOC, NOX, and CO operational emissions would remain significant and unavoidable. Hazards and Hazardous Materials Impact 3.3-2: The project could impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan. (significant and unavoidable impact related to emergency access). Refer to Draft EIR pages 3.3-12 through 3.3-16. The Project is not located in or near state responsibility areas of lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zone and, therefore, would result in no impact to evacuation related to potential wildfire impacts. The Project does not propose any change that would impair implementation of or physically interfere with the adopted Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP), published resources related to emergency preparedness (such as maps of Tsunami Evacuation Routes), or the Airshow Public Safety Plan. Therefore, the Project should be considered to result in less than significant impacts to evacuation related to hazards and hazardous materials. However, due to the volume of people anticipated to gather on and near the beach during the Airshow, in the event of an emergency, ambient evacuation times would be increased and could affect emergency access. The circumstances resulting in the need to evacuate either the event area 185 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 18 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 or the City will differ based upon the nature and magnitude of the emergency (fire, earthquake, tsunami), the location of the emergency (local or regional), and the timing relative to the event (are people coming in or leaving). For example, if there was a sizeable earthquake in the region, then the authorities may prefer that Airshow attendees stay in place until the safety of the roadway infrastructure can be assessed. If there was a tsunami warning, with several hours of notice, then an evacuation process would be somewhat broad and deliberate. In the case of a man- made event (someone causing a threat), the evacuation conditions are more immediate and localized. The population group that attends the event is difficult to identify, as there is limited formal ticketing (only the reserved grandstands and beach). While many people gather near the beach, attendees also view from rooftops/balconies, restaurants, and other venues throughout the City. The ambiguity around the event population (size and location), combined with the range of potential evacuation events, results in unquantifiable evacuation times. As a large number of people walk or bicycle to the Airshow, the speed of these cyclists and pedestrians ability to evacuate may contribute to increased evacuation times depending on the emergency event. Those who are already in the City for reasons unrelated to the Airshow (residents and employees in particular) would likely experience some increase in evacuation times due to the added population from the Project, as the roadway infrastructure is fixed. Finding: The increased population as a result of the Project, combined with all other population unrelated to the Project, including residents, employees, students, and visitors, would likely be all concurrently subject to evacuation orders in case of an emergency event. Given the wide range of possible emergency conditions, difficulty in quantifying the number and location of population added by the Project, the probable increase in evacuation times, and the lack of significance threshold to measure such effects, the Project should be considered to result in significant and unavoidable impacts to emergency access but can be reduced with the incorporation of measures at the discretion of the Community and Library Services Director, or their designees, as described below. As a compliment to the LHMP, a more detailed evacuation plan could be developed for the major events in the City (US Open of Surfing, AVP Volleyball Tournament, Airshow). The plan should at minimum further define how the range of emergency scenarios in the LHMP would relate to these major events, identify the evacuation needs and capacities, and evaluate strategies to reduce evacuation risks by including the following considerations: • Apply the LHMP emergency scenarios during the time of a major short-term event, such as the Airshow, for planning purposes. The plans for evacuation should be based upon the location and dynamics of the emergency scenarios. A detailed evacuation plan should consider scenarios applicable to the Project area and define parameters such as time and area of evacuation, evacuation routes, hazard event, evacuation population, evacuation destination, and relationship to existing plans (such as the LHMP). • Assess the target population during an evacuation event to include community members and participants of special events or gatherings. The evacuation demand assessment should consider factors such as the time of day, automobile availability, route options, hazard 186 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 19 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 behavior, and the locations of evacuation shelters or hotels. Key actions of the assessment should include establishing evacuation areas, identifying populations with mobility challenges, estimating the number of evacuation vehicle trips, and preparing an evacuation trip origin-destination matrix by time periods throughout an evacuation event. • Evaluate the capacity of roadways to accommodate evacuation of events at Huntington Beach and nearby communities with shared emergency access. Roadways within the City identified by the LHMP as potential evacuation routes are discussed in the City’s Circulation Element of the General Plan, including their classification and traffic-carrying capacities under normal conditions. The evaluation should also consider the safety and viability of identified evacuation routes during emergency events. • Identify strategies to reduce evacuation times. Strategies to meaningfully reduce estimated evacuation times may address the supply of transportation capacity (such as temporary one- way streets or specialized signal timing), improve the effectiveness of communication to the public before and during an emergency event, and special provisions for vulnerable populations. Noise Impact 3.4-1: The project would result in a significant impact if it would generate a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies. (significant and unavoidable impact with mitigation). Refer to Draft EIR pages 3.4-21 through 3.4-25. Noise levels from aircraft flyovers for the duration of the Airshow would generate a substantial temporary increase in ambient noise levels and thus result in a significant impact. However, the City’s Municipal Code includes provisions for approval of a Noise Deviation Permit. While the approval of a Noise Deviation Permit would not eliminate the significant impact related to aircraft noise, it would allow the deviation to occur, thereby removing the conflict that would otherwise exist between the Noise Ordinance thresholds and requirements and the noise generated by the Project. Municipal Code Section 8.40.130 states that the applicant must provide information in the Noise Deviation Permit application regarding actions taken to comply with the Noise Ordinance, reasons why compliance cannot be achieved, and a proposed method of achieving compliance if such method exists. The applicant must also demonstrate the need to deviate from the noise level and whether the deviation produces a greater benefit to the community that outweighs the temporary increase in noise level. Due to the nature of the Project, compliance with the Noise Ordinance thresholds is not possible while maintaining the activities the Airshow has included since 2016. The Project provides Huntington Beach residents and visitors with an opportunity to enjoy a family event that is geared towards all ages. Activities, food, and area retail establishment products are available at the Airshow, enhanced by live entertainment. Traffic and crowd noise are natural consequences of this type of event and there is no way to achieve strict Noise Ordinance compliance while maintaining the established activities. The benefits to the community and visitors are evident from the success of the annual Airshow, which provides an opportunity for local merchants to 187 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 20 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 offer their services and wares to a larger audience. Therefore, the deviation produces a greater benefit to the community that outweighs the temporary exceedance from the once-a-year Airshow. Additionally, new Airshow activities discussed in Draft EIR Chapter 2, Project Description, such as air racing, nighttime flyovers, and helicopter landing within Main Hospitality Area, may result in similar noise levels as was measured during the 2023 Airshow. However, while noise impacts would remain significant, the Noise Deviation Permit would allow the exceedance to occur. In addition, the Draft EIR determined that the maximum increase in Project-related traffic noise levels over existing traffic noise levels would be less than 1 dBA 3 Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL)4 along all roadway segments. This increase in noise level would be well below the “clearly noticeable” threshold increase of 5 dBA CNEL in an area characterized by normally acceptable noise levels that would remain below 55 dBA CNEL or “conditionally acceptable” threshold of noise levels that would remain below 70 dBA CNEL. Therefore, Project-related noise increases would be less than the applicable threshold and would be less than significant. During the Airshow events, the competitions and art installations would be located within the Project Site and generally located away from noise-sensitive uses east of Pacific Coast Highway. The temporary event structures would be similar in scale and location to previous Airshows since 2016 (except in 2020, when there was no Airshow) and generally located away from noise- sensitive uses east of Pacific Coast Highway. The temporary Airshow pyrotechnic display would occur over water, similar to the City’s existing annual Fourth of July Fireworks Over the Ocean and would not result in permanent effects on the environment. The competitions, art installations, event structures, and pyrotechnic display would not generate a substantial increase in ambient noise in excess of established standards and existing conditions. Therefore, no further analysis of these issues was included in the Draft EIR. However, the multi-day music festival would be located generally within the northernmost portion of the Show Center Area within Concert Area A or alternatively the southernmost portion of the Show Center Area within Concert Area E. The multi-day music festival would occur following the conclusion of the Airshow up to 11:00 p.m. over 3 days over the weekend directed towards the ocean. In addition, the music festival would require sound checks during the day/evening prior to the music festival. The music festival would include the use of amplified speakers, which would be directed toward the ocean and away from noise sensitive uses located on Pacific Coast Highway. Nonetheless, the multi-day music festival with the use of amplified speakers may result in a temporary net increase in noise as compared to past Airshows. As such, the Draft EIR determined that the Project’s music festival would result in the generation of a substantial temporary increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the Project to be in excess 3 The typical human ear is not equally sensitive to all frequencies of the audible sound spectrum. As a consequence, when assessing potential noise impacts on humans, sound is measured using an electronic filter that de-emphasizes the frequencies in a manner corresponding to the human ear’s decreased sensitivity to extremely low and extremely high frequencies. This method of frequency weighting is referred to as A-weighting and is expressed in units of A- weighted decibels (dBA). A-weighting follows an international standard methodology of frequency weighting and is typically applied to community noise measurements. 4 CNEL is the average A-weighted noise level during a 24-hour day that includes an addition of 5 dB to measured noise levels between the hours of 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and an addition of 10 dB to noise levels between the hours of 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. to account for noise sensitivity in the evening and nighttime, respectively. 188 4.0 Findings Regarding Environmental Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 21 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 of standards established by the City and impacts from the music festival would be potentially significant. Mitigation Measure NOI-1: The applicant shall implement the following measures for the duration of the event: • The nearest speaker shall be placed at least 475 feet away from any nearby sensitive receptor and any subsequent speakers shall be separated from other speakers by 25 feet parallel to Pacific Coast Highway. Speakers shall also be positioned in a manner that would not point directly towards any nearby sensitive receptor and, instead, face the beach/ocean. • A temporary noise barrier of at least 10 feet in height and constructed of plywood or using a sound blanket shall be installed on public property nearest to the sensitive receptors to the west of the proposed music festival area (Huntington Pacific Beach House Condo complex at 701 Pacific Coast Highway). The temporary noise barriers shall block the line-of-sight between the music festival attendees and similarly elevated ground-level noise-sensitive receptors. Finding: Mitigation Measure NOI-1 would be required to reduce noise levels. However, noise levels would still exceed the significance thresholds even with implementation of this mitigation. Since it would not be feasible to locate speakers further away from the sensitive receptors (towards the ocean) because this would impede beyond the mean high tide line, and the City does not have any jurisdiction beyond the mean high tide line, this impact is determined to be significant and unavoidable. While the Project would submit a Noise Deviation Permit application pursuant to Municipal Code requirements, which would allow the exceedance to occur, the proposed music festival would be a new source of noise in excess of standards. Furthermore, as the proposed music festival would be a new addition to the Airshow and prior Noise Deviation Permit applications have not included a music festival, this impact is determined to be significant and unavoidable. No additional feasible mitigation measures are available. Impact 3.4-2: The project will result in a significant impact if it generates excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels. (significant and unavoidable impact with mitigation). Refer to Draft EIR page 3.4-25 through 3.4-28. Operation of the music festival would include typical commercial-grade mechanical and electrical equipment, such as amplified sound systems, which would produce groundborne vibration. Data regarding specific groundborne vibration levels from speakers that would be used at the proposed music festival is not available. For the purposes of this analysis, assuming a relatively-high groundborne vibration level equivalent to a sonic pile driver operating under typical conditions of 93 vibration velocity level (VdB) at 25 feet, at a distance of 95 feet, the vibration level would be approximately 81.4 VdB, which would exceed the significance threshold of 72 VdB at vibration- sensitive land uses. In the absence of specific data, the analytical assumption of using a groundborne vibration level equivalent to a sonic pile driver is anticipated to provide a reasonably conservative approach as sonic pile drivers represent equipment with the highest non-impact vibration level according to the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Transit Noise and Vibration Impact Assessment Manual. Therefore, it is determined that groundborne vibration and groundborne noise impacts from the music festival would be potentially significant. 189 5.0 Findings Regarding Cumulative Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 22 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 Ground consisting of beach sand would have a dampening effect on groundborne vibration. Thus, increasing the separation distance between the speakers and vibration-sensitive land uses would reduce the vibration levels. Findings: Mitigation Measure NOI-1, which maximizes the separation distance between the speakers and vibration-sensitive land uses, would be required to reduce the groundborne vibration and groundborne noise levels. At a distance of 475 feet, as specified in Mitigation Measure NOI- 1, the vibration level would be reduced to approximately 67.4 VdB, given the above assumptions, which suggests impacts could be reduced to less than significant. Nonetheless, since data regarding specific groundborne vibration levels from speakers that would be used at the proposed music festival is not available, and since it would not be feasible to locate speakers further away from the sensitive receptors (towards the ocean) because this would impede beyond the mean high tide line and the City does not have any jurisdiction beyond the mean high tide line, this impact is conservatively determined to be significant and unavoidable. No additional feasible mitigation measures are available. 5.0 Findings Regarding Cumulative Impacts As discussed in Draft EIR Subsection 3.7, Cumulative Analysis, CEQA requires that an EIR assess the cumulative impacts of a project with respect to past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future projects. CEQA Guidelines Section 15355, Cumulative Impacts, specifically provides the following definition of cumulative impacts: “Cumulative impacts” refer to two or more individual effects which, when considered together, are considerable or which compound or increase other environmental impacts. (a) The individual effects may be changes resulting from a single project or a number of separate projects. (b) The cumulative impact from several projects is the change in the environment which results from the incremental impact of the project when added to other closely related past, present, and reasonably foreseeable probable future projects. Cumulative impacts can result from individually minor but collectively significant projects taking place over a period of time. CEQA Guidelines Section 15130(a), Discussion of Cumulative Impacts, further addresses the analysis of cumulative impacts: “(1) As defined in Section 15355, a cumulative impact consists of an impact which is created as a result of the combination of the project evaluated in the EIR together with other projects causing related impacts. An EIR should not discuss impacts which do not result in part from the project evaluated in the EIR; (2) If the combined cumulative impact associated with the project’s incremental effect and the effects of other projects is not significant, the EIR should briefly indicate why the cumulative impact is not significant and is not discussed in further detail in the EIR. A lead agency shall 190 5.0 Findings Regarding Cumulative Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 23 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 identify facts and analysis supporting the lead agency’s conclusion that the cumulative impact is less than significant. (3) An EIR may determine that a project’s contribution to a significant cumulative impact will be rendered less than cumulatively considerable and thus is not significant. A project’s contribution is less than cumulatively considerable if the project is required to implement or fund its fair share of a mitigation measure or measures designed to alleviate the cumulative impact. The lead agency shall identify facts and analysis supporting its conclusion that the contribution will be rendered less than cumulatively considerable.” In summary, if the combined cumulative impact associated with the project’s incremental effect and the effects of other projects is significant, the EIR must determine whether the project’s incremental contribution is cumulatively considerable. If the project’s incremental contribution is not cumulatively considerable, the cumulative impact is considered “not significant” pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15130(a)(3). Because the Airshow does not propose construction of new permanent development, and further, because it is a temporary event, the nature of this Project does not allow for the same manner of cumulative assessment as projects that lead to a permanent change or construction-related impacts that could combine with other projects spatially and/or temporarily, such as land use or transportation projects. Therefore, consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15130(a)(2), the Draft EIR provides facts and analyses supporting the Lead Agency’s conclusion that the combined cumulative impacts associated with the Airshow project’s incremental effect and the effects of other projects is not significant and is not discussed in detail in the Draft EIR. As part of the facts and analyses supporting the use of CEQA Guidelines Section 15130(a)(2), the City of Huntington Beach prepared a list of past, present, and reasonably future projects that were considered when making the conclusion that the Project, when considered with other cumulative projects, would not result in a cumulatively considerable contribution to a significant cumulative impact. The list of cumulative projects that were considered is provided in Table 3.7-1 (below and on page 3.7-3 of the Draft EIR). For Project-related impacts that result in no impact, the Project cannot combine to create an incremental, cumulatively considerable contribution to a significant cumulative impact. Therefore, consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15130(a)(1), “[A]n EIR should not discuss impacts which do not result in part from the project evaluated in the EIR.” Accordingly, the cumulative impact analysis in the EIR does not address impact statements that are determined to result in no impact in either the Initial Study/Notice of Preparation or the EIR. If the combined cumulative impact associated with the project’s incremental effect and the effects of other projects is not significant, the EIR should briefly indicate why the cumulative impact is not significant and is not discussed in further detail in the EIR, as allowed by CEQA Guidelines Section 15130(a)(2). 191 5.0 Findings Regarding Cumulative Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 24 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 TABLE 3.7-1 RELATED PROJECT LIST No. Project Name/Location Description Status 1.

Caltrans agreed, in conversation with the City, to identify the City’s special events (i.e., including, but not limited to, the Pacific Airshow, U.S. Surf Open, AVP Volleyball, etc.) as “non-construction dates” for the PCH Caltrans Improvement Project. In addition, Caltrans will shut down construction activities between Memorial Day and Labor Day to avoid the busy, summer, beach season. Construction activities will likely begin in 2025 and last through 2026 given the various “non-construction dates.” Approved. Construction not yet started. NOTES: sf = square feet SOURCE: City of Huntington Beach, 2024 Table 3.7-2 (below and on pages 3.7-5 through 3.7-6 of the Draft EIR) provides a summary of the Project-related impact conclusions and cumulative impact conclusions for each threshold evaluated in the EIR, including explanatory notes. Table 3.7-2 only identifies those thresholds carried forward for analysis in the Draft EIR, no matter the conclusion in the Draft EIR. As with the Draft EIR, the Initial Study/Notice of Preparation identifies thresholds that would result in no impact and, therefore, were not carried forward for analysis in the Draft EIR and, similarly, result in no cumulative impact. The full discussion of cumulative impacts can be found in Draft EIR Subsection 3.7, Cumulative Analysis. 192 5.0 Findings Regarding Cumulative Impacts The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 25 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 TABLE 3.7-2 AIRSHOW PROJECT-RELATED AND CUMULATIVE IMPACT CONCLUSIONS Impact Statement Project- Related Impact Conclusion Cumulative Impact Conclusion Notes Air Quality Consistency with the Current Air Quality Management Plan. Not Applicable. Project’s incremental contribution is not cumulatively considerable.` SCAQMD allows a lead agency to determine that a project’s incremental contribution to a cumulative effect is not cumulatively considerable if the project is consistent with the current AQMP (this is not a CEQA Appendix G Threshold for a Project-related impact; Impact 3.1-1 addresses the CEQA Appendix Threshold). Impact 3.1-1: The Project would result in significant impact if it would result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non- attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard. Significant and Unavoidable. Cumulatively considerable contribution to a significant cumulative impact. SCAQMD recommends that construction or operational Project emissions are considered cumulatively considerable if Project-specific emissions exceed an applicable SCAQMD recommended significance threshold. Biological Resources Impact 3.2-1: The project would not have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special- status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Less than Significant. Project’s incremental contribution is not cumulatively considerable to a significant cumulative impact. Impact 3.2-2: The project would not interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites. Less than Significant. Project’s incremental contribution is not cumulatively considerable to a significant cumulative impact. Hazards and Hazardous Materials Impact 3.3-1: For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, the project would not result in a safety hazard or excessive noise for people residing or working in the project area. Less than Significant with Mitigation. Project’s incremental contribution is not cumulatively considerable to a significant cumulative impact. Impact 3.3-2: The project could impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan. Significant and Unavoidable. Project’s incremental contribution is not cumulatively considerable to a significant cumulative impact. 193 6.0 Findings Regarding Alternatives The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 26 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 Impact Statement Project- Related Impact Conclusion Cumulative Impact Conclusion Notes Noise Impact 3.4-1 (On-Site Operational Noise): The Project would result in a significant impact from the generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the Project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies. Significant and Unavoidable with Mitigation. Cumulatively considerable contribution to a significant cumulative impact. Impact 3.4-1 (Off-Site Traffic Noise): The Project would result in a significant impact from the generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the Project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies. Less than Significant. Project’s incremental contribution is not cumulatively considerable to a significant cumulative impact. Impact 3.4-2: The Project would not generate excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels. Significant and Unavoidable with Mitigation. Cumulatively considerable contribution to a significant cumulative impact. Transportation Impact 3.5-1: The project would not conflict or be inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines § 15064.3, subdivision (b) (as it relates to VMT) Less than Significant. Project’s incremental contribution is not cumulatively considerable. Impact 3.5-2: The project would not result in inadequate emergency access. Less than Significant. Project’s incremental contribution is not cumulatively considerable. 6.0 Findings Regarding Alternatives Because the Project would result in significant and unavoidable environmental impacts after implementation of the mitigation measures, the City considered alternatives to the Project. In accordance with State CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(a), an EIR shall describe a range of reasonable alternatives to the project, or to the location of the project, which would feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project, but would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project, and evaluate the comparative merits of the alternatives. The Project’s objectives are provided above in Section 3.2, Project Purpose and Objectives. The State CEQA Guidelines emphasize that the selection of project alternatives should be based primarily on the ability to reduce significant impacts relative to the proposed project, “even if these alternatives would impede to some degree the attainment of the project objectives, or would be more costly”5 The State CEQA Guidelines further direct that the range of alternatives 5 CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(b). 194 6.0 Findings Regarding Alternatives The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 27 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 be guided by a “rule of reason,” such that only those alternatives necessary to permit a reasoned choice are analyzed.6 Based on the comparative alternatives analysis, an environmentally superior alternative is to be designated. In general, the environmentally superior alternative is the alternative with the least adverse impacts on the environment. If the environmentally superior alternative is the “no project” alternative, the EIR shall also identify another environmentally superior alternative among the other alternatives.7 The EIR considers a total of five alternatives to the Project, two of which were considered but were not selected for further analysis including offsite location and avoidance of flying over Bolsa Chica, and the remaining three, including the No Project/No Airshow Alternative, are comprehensively evaluated in the EIR. Section 15126.6(e)(2) of the State CEQA Guidelines indicates that an analysis of alternatives to a proposed project shall identify an environmentally superior alternative among the alternatives evaluated in an EIR, and that if the “no project” alternative is the environmentally superior alternative, the EIR shall identify another environmentally superior alternative among the remaining alternatives. Selection of an environmentally superior alternative is based on comparison of the alternatives that would reduce or eliminate the significant impacts associated with the Project, and on a comparison of the remaining environmental impacts of each alternative to the Project’s impacts. 6.1 Alternatives Considered and Rejected CEQA does not require that the alternatives be exhaustive, or require evaluation of alternatives that are not realistically feasible given the failure to meet project objectives or the availability of resources to support the alternatives. The following alternatives were rejected because implementation is considered remote and speculative or some of the goals and objectives would not be met. Offsite Location The Offsite Location Alternative would aim to be located further from sensitive biological resources. Sensitive habitat is located along the coastline including the Huntington Beach Wetlands, the Magnolia Marsh, and the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve (BCER). In order to be located away from the areas that contain more sensitive biological resources, the site would likely need to be at a more inland location, where there would be less space for attendees to congregate as well as fewer areas to view the Airshow compared to the Project Site. In addition, the likelihood of finding a location that would be able to accommodate the number of activities planned (Airshow, music festival, wave pool surf competitions, skateboard/BMX event, etc.) for the Airshow would be low. 6 Ibid., Section 15126.6(f). 7 Ibid., Section 15126.6(e) (2). 195 6.0 Findings Regarding Alternatives The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 28 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 This Alternative was considered infeasible due to the fact that there are very few, if any, other locations within the City that are City-owned and would be able to provide the services and area for the Airshow to be conducted and viewed. The alternative site would need to be up to approximately 100 acres in size in order to accommodate the parking, viewing areas, and other activities. Per the CEQA Guidelines, the Offsite Location Alternative was rejected as infeasible using the criteria for off-site alternatives, including site suitability, economic viability, jurisdictional boundaries, whether the project proponent owns the site, and whether the project proponent can control site access. Some of the alternative sites considered that would be large enough to accommodate the activities include Edison High School and Central Park located in the City. Edison was rejected because this site would be closer to the Huntington Beach wetlands complex, and therefore, not necessarily further from sensitive biological resources. Central Park was also rejected due to the sensitive habitat and species that are present throughout the Park. Central Park has three freshwater lakes that are used by waterfowl and other birds. Portions of Central Park are also located closer to the BCER. Therefore, due to the proximity of sensitive habitat and sensitive species at the two locations most appropriate to be considered as alternative sites, these locations would not reduce impacts to biological resources. Avoidance of Flying over Bolsa Chica The Avoidance of Flying over Bolsa Chica Alternative would involve having the Pacific Airshow LLC instruct the air traffic controllers to avoid flying over the BCER . The purpose of this Alternative would be to reduce noise over the BCER and to avoid potential impacts to biological resources in the BCER. However, noise from commercial and private aircraft and helicopter flights over the BCER, including helicopters regularly landing at the helipad located within the BCER, is an existing condition. In addition, the Project already has controls and measures in place to prevent incursion into the BCER including providing a daily formal briefing (each day of the Airshow) to all Airshow pilots on the location and nature of the BCER; requesting that pilots minimize or avoid overflight of the BCER to the greatest extent possible; requesting that when overflight of the BCER cannot be avoided that it be at 1,000 feet above ground level (AGL) or above; advising Southern California Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON) as well as Los Alamitos Army Airfield Tower on the location and nature of the BCER and request that they avoid directing Airshow pilots to overfly the area to the greatest extent possible; establishing routes in/out of Airshow airspace and supporting airfields to avoid overflight of the BCER to the greatest extent possible; coordinating with Southern California TRACON and Los Alamitos Army Airfield Tower regarding directing airshow aircraft transiting to/from supporting airfields to fly as directly as able into the Airshow’s restricted airspace which, in most cases, will prevent overflight of the BCER; discussing and sharing any report of otherwise avoidable incursion will be at the daily briefing and discussing with air traffic control representatives in the ongoing effort to identify and implement solutions to avoid overflight; and instructing parachute demonstration teams to keep streamer drops in close to the site or to refrain from using them all together if conditions permit to prevent incursion into the BCER. Since these measures are already in place for the 2024 Airshow and all Airshow events moving forward, the potential noise and incursion into the BCER is already being minimized to the extent feasible. In addition, the Project includes 196 6.0 Findings Regarding Alternatives The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 29 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 a measure where a biological monitor is recommended to conduct monitoring at the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve and protected plover and tern nesting areas to confirm debris does not move into these areas and that low flyovers do not occur within these areas. Also, important to note is that the Airshow is scheduled for after breeding season. Therefore, since the BCER is already being avoided by the activities and measures listed above, this Alternative is not analyzed in further detail. 6.2 Alternatives Considered in Detail Alternative 1: No Project/No Airshow Alternative CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(e) requires analysis of a No Project Alternative that (1) discusses existing site conditions at the time the NOP is prepared or the Draft EIR is commenced and (2) analyzes what is reasonably expected to occur in the foreseeable future based on current plans if the Project were not approved. Under this Alternative, the Airshow and the associated activities are not occurring in 2024 or for the foreseeable future. Since the No Project Alternative assumes the Airshow would not take place, no new environmental impacts would occur under this Alternative. Alternative 2: 2023 Airshow Alternative Under the 2023 Airshow Alternative, the annual event would take place over 3 days, and would not include a music festival, helicopter and aircraft runway/display, skateboard/BMX competition, pyrotechnic shows, sandcastle building competition, and beach camping, among other activities/features noted in New Airshow Activities Anticipated for 2024 through 2034 in Section 1.6, Historic and Future Airshow Activities and Events Schedule. The Airshow would continue to be held annually Friday through Sunday during the fall season with aircraft flight familiarization and flight practice flyovers beginning as early as Monday of the week of the Airshow. Alternative 3: Reduced Project Alternative The Reduced Project Alternative would include a reduced size of the Airshow with no military aircraft or equivalent noise-producing jets being included in the Airshow. Based on information received from the President of the International Council of Airshows, John Cudahy8, airshows without military performers have less than half of the attendance of shows that include military aircraft. In fact, in 2013, when the United States Department of Defense cancelled its participation in civilian airshows, attendance decreases of 75 percent to 80 percent occurred. In addition, without military aircraft, the noise impacts from the flyovers would be reduced. Therefore, the Reduced Project Alternative is aimed to reduce noise impacts due to the type of aircraft being used. Additionally, evacuation impacts would be reduced due to both a decreased number of employees and a decreased number of attendees. 8 John B. Cudahy, President, International Council of Air Shows. Letter correspondence dated March 25, 2024. 197 6.0 Findings Regarding Alternatives The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 30 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 The Reduced Project Alternative would not meet the following Project objectives: •Continue to provide a gathering place where locals and visitors can come together to enjoy civilian and military aircraft flybys and aerial acrobatics, illustrations, displays, food, and music. •Prove an event that promotes careers and opportunities in the Defense Forces. Since the Reduced Project Alternative would not include military flybys from military aircraft, the two above objectives would not be met in their entirety. In addition, since the Reduced Project Alternative would result in a decreased number of attendees, this alternative would also only partially meet the objectives of creating a net positive economic impact, increasing tax revenues, and continuing to provide jobs associated with the Airshow. With fewer attendees, it is anticipated that the positive economic impact, the potential tax revenues, tourism impact, quality level of show and the number of employees needed to staff the Airshow would all potentially be reduced. 6.3 Findings Regarding the Alternatives Of the alternatives analyzed in the EIR, the No Project Alternative is considered the environmentally superior alternative as it would avoid or reduce most of the potential impacts associated with operation of the Project. However, it would not meet the objectives of the Project. CEQA Guidelines require that, if the No Project Alternative is determined to be the environmentally superior alternative, an environmentally superior alternative must also be identified among the remaining alternatives. As such, the 2023 Airshow Alternative would result in the fewest environmental impacts as compared to the Project and is considered the Environmentally Superior Alternative. However, this alternative would not meet all of the Project Objectives. Furthermore, the 2023 Airshow Alternative would reduce the opportunity to gather since fewer events would be held over fewer days. The 2023 Airshow Alternative would not meet the following Project objectives in their entirety or to the extent the Project would: •Continue to provide a family-oriented, safe, educational, fun, and entertaining Airshow experience with an emphasis on outdoor lifestyle and popular culture elements. •Continue to provide a gathering place where locals and visitors can come together to enjoy civilian and military aircraft flybys and aerial acrobatics, illustrations, displays, food, and music. •Create a net positive direct economic impact on the City and surrounding communities as a result of spending by incremental visiting attendees, the event organizer, and event sponsors. •Increase in tax revenues (i.e., sales tax and transit occupancy tax) to the City. •Continue to provide temporary and full-time jobs associated with the Airshow. Since the 2023 Airshow Alternative would not include a music festival, helicopter and aircraft runway/display, skateboard/BMX competition, pyrotechnic shows, sandcastle building competition, and beach camping, among other activities/features, fewer family-oriented events would be offered. With fewer activities, it is anticipated that the positive economic impact, the potential tax revenues, and the number of employees needed to staff the Airshow would each 198 7.0 Findings Regarding the Final EIR The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 31 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 potentially be reduced. In addition, without offering the events promoting the beach community, including beach camping and sandcastle building among others, there would be a reduced positive impact to the promotion of the Huntington Beach Pier and beaches. In conclusion, the 2023 Airshow Alternative is the Environmentally Superior Alternative; however, it does not meet all the Project Objectives. 7.0 Findings Regarding the Final EIR The Responses to Comments, provided as Chapter 3 of the Final EIR, includes the comments received during the public review period on the Draft EIR and the City’s responses to these comments. The focus of the Responses to Comments is on the disposition of significant environmental issues as raised in the comments, as specified by State CEQA Guidelines Section 15088(c). The purpose of the Final EIR is to respond to all comments received by the City regarding the environmental information and analyses contained in the Draft EIR. Corrections and Additions to the Draft EIR, provided as Chapter 4 of the Final EIR, includes any clarifications/corrections to the text, tables, figures, and appendices of the Draft EIR generated either from responses to comments or independently by the City. The City finds that comments made on the Draft EIR, the responses to these comments, and revisions to the Draft EIR clarify or update the analysis presented in the document but do not change the analysis or conclusions of the Draft EIR. Accordingly, no significant new information, as described in State CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5, was added to the EIR after the Draft EIR was made available for public review. The comments, responses to comments, and the clarifications to the Draft EIR do not trigger the need to recirculate the EIR pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5. These changes merely clarify or update the discussion but do not change the analysis or conclusions of the Draft EIR. Based on the analysis in the Draft EIR, the comments received, and the responses to these comments, no substantial new environmental issues have been raised that have not been adequately addressed in the Draft EIR. Also, no changes to the analysis or conclusions of the Draft EIR are necessary based on the comments, the responses to the comments, and the revisions to the Draft EIR noted above. 8.0 Statement of Overriding Considerations The City finds on the basis of the Final EIR and the record of proceedings in this matter that the significant and unavoidable impacts of the Project are acceptable when balanced against the benefits of the Project. This determination is based on the following Project objectives and the substantial public, social, economic, and environmental benefits generated from the Project as identified in the Draft EIR, the Final EIR and the record of proceedings in the matter. The Project objectives include the following: • Continue to provide a family-oriented, safe, educational, fun, and entertaining Airshow experience with an emphasis on outdoor lifestyle and popular culture elements. 199 8.0 Statement of Overriding Considerations The Pacific Airshow Huntington Beach Project 32 ESA / D202300046.01 Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations August 2025 • Continue to provide a gathering place where locals and visitors can come together to enjoy civilian and military aircraft flybys and aerial acrobatics, illustrations, displays, food, and music. • Prove an event that promotes careers and opportunities in the Defense Forces and in aviation. • Provide an event that promotes coastal access. • Continue to promote awareness and use of the Huntington Beach Pier and beaches. • Continue to promote awareness of the Huntington Beach hotels, restaurants, stores, and businesses across the City. • Continue to promote Huntington Beach and Southern California as a welcoming global tourism destination. • Create a net positive direct economic impact on the City and surrounding communities as a result of spending by incremental visiting attendees, the event organizer, and event sponsors. • Increase in tax revenues (i.e., sales tax, transit occupancy tax, and property tax) to the City. • Continue to provide temporary and full-time jobs associated with the Airshow. • Provide an event that reduces potential impacts to the surrounding sensitive habitat including the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve, the Huntington Beach Wetlands, the Magnolia Marsh, and special-status wildlife species such as the federally endangered California least tern and western snowy plover. Based on the analysis provided in Draft EIR Chapter 3, Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures, implementation of the Project will result in significant impacts that cannot be feasibly mitigated with respect to Air Quality, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, and Noise. Considering the information contained in and related to the Final EIR, and pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15092, the City of Huntington Beach finds that in approving the Project, it has eliminated or substantially lessened all significant and potentially significant effects of the Project on the environment where feasible as shown in these Findings. The City of Huntington Beach further finds that it has balanced the economic, social, technological, and other benefits of the Project against the remaining unavoidable environmental risks in determining whether to approve the Project and has determined that those benefits outweigh the unavoidable risks and that those risks are acceptable. The City of Huntington Beach makes this statement of overriding considerations in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15093 in support of approval of the Project. Specifically, in the City’s judgment, the benefits of the Project, as proposed, outweigh the significant and unavoidable impacts, and the Project should be approved. 200 EIR No. 25-003 Pacific Airshow City Council Meeting September 2, 2025 201 EIR No. 25-003 (Pacific Airshow) •Analyzes and discloses the potential environmental impacts associated with the Pacific Airshow –Project Description includes new airshow activities •Impacts –EIR analyzes 6 environmental impact areas –Significance of impacts based on established thresholds –In CEQA terms, impacts categorized as: •No impact •Less than significant •Less than significant with incorporation of mitigation measures •Potentially significant •Mitigation Measures –Mitigation Measures identified to reduce level of significance or minimize less than significant impacts (wildlife hazards & biological monitoring) •Significant and Unavoidable Impacts –potentially significant impacts that cannot be feasibly mitigated to a less than significant level 202 Topical Issues Analyzed Issues Analyzed in the Initial Study and determined to have No Impact or LTS Impact •Aesthetics •Agriculture and Forestry Resources •Cultural Resources •Energy •Geology & Soils/Mineral Resources •Greenhouse Gas Emissions •Hydrology and Water Quality •Land Use & Planning •Population & Housing •Public Services •Utilities & Services systems •Wildfire Issues Analyzed in the EIR •Air Quality •Biological Resources •Hazards and Hazardous Materials •Noise •Transportation •Tribal Cultural Resources 203 Significant and Unavoidable Impacts •Air Quality –Operation emissions estimates from increased mobile source emissions (i.e. – vehicle trips) would continue to exceed daily emissions thresholds for criteria pollutants VOC, Nox, CO •Hazards & Hazardous Materials –Emergency evacuation –Lack of significance thresholds –Difficult to assume the wide range of possible emergency conditions, number and location of increased population during airshow activities, and probable increase in response times –Emergency response measures recommended to compliment the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan and airshow evacuation plan •Noise & Vibration –Noise and vibration from multi-day music festival would exceed established noise standards –Mitigation is proposed to minimize impacts, but would remain significant 204 Alternatives CEQA requires an EIR to identify and analyze a reasonable range of alternatives to the project that would: – Feasibly obtain most of the objectives of the project –Avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project, as proposed The Draft Program EIR evaluated 3 Alternatives: •Alternative 1: No Project/ No Airshow –Assumes no airshow would occur for the foreseeable future –Required by CEQA •Alternative 2: 2023 Airshow – assumes 2023 version of the Airshow with none of the new airshow activities described in the project description •Alternative 3: Reduced Project – assumes reduced size of Airshow with no military aircraft or equivalent noise-producing jets 205 Final EIR •Includes Draft Program EIR (made available for public review from February 20th through April 7th) •Comments on the Draft Program EIR •Responses to comments on the Draft Program EIR •Text changes to the Draft Program EIR •Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program 206 Statement of Overriding Considerations •If the lead agency determines that it is infeasible to mitigate a significant environmental impact, the agency must adopt a “statement of overriding considerations.” –The lead agency finds that specific overriding economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits of the project outweigh the significant effects on the environment. 207 Recommended Action •Recommend certification of EIR No. 25-003 because: –It adequately analyzes the potential environmental impacts associated with the Pacific Airshow –Identifies project alternatives pursuant to CEQA –Provides mitigation measures to lessen the project’s impacts –Has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). •Approve CEQA Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations 208 Questions? 209 Page 1 of 18 AIRSHOW EVENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH AND PACIFIC AIRSHOW, LLC THIS AIRSHOW EVENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into this _____ day of ___________________________, 2025 (“Effective Date”), by and between the CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH, a California municipal corporation and Charter City (“City”), and PACIFIC AIRSHOW, LLC, a California limited liability company (“Pacific Airshow”).

Circumstances warranting an immediate timeframe to cure include, but are not limited to, when a default involves either public safety or immediate waste or damage to property.

Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, no modifications to this Agreement will be binding upon the Parties unless modified, amended, cancelled, renewed, or extended in a writing signed by both Parties. 25.

The Planning Commission approved the projects with the following revised conditions: ·The outdoor dining barrier shall consist of a solid material in lieu of cables ·Add delineators to provide a clear path to the designated customer walk up window ·All alcoholic beverages shall be ordered and consumed from the dining/bar top table only and delivered to guests by service staff ·Security staff shall be provided during alcohol service ·Alcohol service shall be limited to between the hours of noon to closing (no later than 10:00 PM) Planning Commission Action on August 5, 2025: A motion was made by Thienes, seconded by Goldberg, to approve CUP No. 25-007 with revised conditions carried by the following vote: AYES: Thienes, Goldberg, Palmer, Babineau NOES: Pellman, McGee, Bush ABSTAIN: None MOTION PASSED A motion was made by Goldberg, seconded by Thienes, to approve CUP No. 25-014 with revised City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ 239 File #:25-664 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 conditions carried by the following vote: AYES: Thienes, Goldberg, Palmer, Babineau NOES: Pellman, McGee, Bush ABSTAIN: None MOTION PASSED C.APPEAL On August 7, 2025, the project was appealed by City Council Member Chad Williams citing concerns raised by the public during the August 5th Planning Commission meeting. D.STAFF ANALYSIS: The August 5, 2025, Planning Commission staff reports provide a more detailed description and analysis of the proposed CUPs (Attachment No. 10). Concerns related to public safety, and beer and wine service in close proximity to youth sports and playgrounds were discussed during the hearings. To address concerns, the Planning Commission modified conditions of the CUPs to include solid outdoor dining barriers, added security, limiting hours of operation for beer and wine service, and restricting service and consumption of beer and wine to dining/bar top tables. While most patrons to the establishments are anticipated to order food and non-alcoholic beverages, the beer and wine beverages are considered ancillary to the main menu. The provisions added by the Planning Commission would further control the beer and wine service and consumption within the confined dining areas. The Police Department has also reviewed the request, and their requirements have been incorporated into the conditions of approval. Furthermore, the operators would still need to obtain Type 41 licenses from the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control prior to any service of beer and wine. Lastly, staff received letters in support and opposition to the CUPs (Attachment No. 13). In summary, the Planning Commission recommends approval of CUP Nos. 25-007 and 25-014 based on the findings provided in Attachment Nos. 1 and 2. Environmental Status: CUP Nos. 25-007 and 25-014 are categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines because the projects will allow for beer and wine service within an approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area with full table service in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment with no expansion to the existing buildings. Strategic Plan Goal: Goal 2 - Fiscal Stability, Strategy A - Consider new revenue sources and opportunities to support the City's priority initiatives and projects.

SUGGESTED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL – CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-007: 1. Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood because the use is located within an existing open space park setting. The use is primarily an eating and drinking establishment and the request for alcohol service is ancillary to the primary use. The establishment of a restaurant with service of beer and wine sales will benefit and serve the surrounding area by providing a new service and all operations associated with the proposed use will occur within the delineated outdoor dining area. Although the requested use is proposed to take place within a public park setting, the outdoor patio dining area will be provided with a fence barrier, and a condition has been placed that no alcoholic beverages shall be consumed on any property adjacent to the licensed premises and must be consumed within the demarcated eating establishment’s patio dining area. The sale, service and consumption of beer and wine within the proposed outdoor dining area is not anticipated to generate additional noise, traffic, or impacts above existing conditions. Furthermore, the eating and drinking establishment is oriented on the east side of Goldenwest Street between Talbert Avenue and Ellis Avenue, with the outdoor dining patio facing existing baseball fields two and three, with the closest residences located over 450 ft. to the south. 2. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full t able service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not adversely affect the General Plan because it is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of OS-P (Open Space – Park) on the subject property. In addition, it is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General Plan: Land Use Element 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. 242 Attachment 1.2 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. Goal LU-14: Huntington Beach continues to attract visitors and provides a variety of attractions and accommodations during their stay. Policy LU-14 (B): Encourage both coastal and inland visitor serving uses to offer a wide spectrum of opportunities for residents and visitors. Environmental Resources and Conservation Element Policy ERC-1 (H): Administer the City’s open space program in a manner that supports lands, resources, and services provided in regional parks, open spaces, and conservation plans. Policy ERC-2 (B): Ensure that buildings, equipment, fields, and other recreation amenities are in full use and capable of accommodating changing program demands. The request will expand the range of goods and services provided at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex by permitting the ancillary sale of beer and wine in conjunction with an eating and drinking establishment in a safe manner for residents and customers from the surrounding area. The establishment provides expanded goods and services to meet the needs of the area and will add to the capture of sales tax revenue. The proposed use is in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment within the Huntington Beach Sports Complex in Central Park. The expansion of beer and wine service at existing Sports Complex concessions will enhance the visitor experience and make the Sports Complex a more marketable amenity in attracting new user groups, events and tournaments. 3. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will comply with the provisions of the base district and other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO) because beer and wine sales within eating and drinking establishments with full table service are permitted subject to a Conditional Use Permit within the Open Space – Parks and Recreation Subdistrict. The proposed outdoor patio dining area will be located within the premises of an existing eating and drinking establishment building, which conforms to applicable site development standards, including parking.

Sincerely, Jennifer Villasenor, Secretary Planning Commission By: r--.r--.,,._--- Ricky Ramos, Planning Manager JV:RR:MC:kdc Attachment: Finding and Conditions of Approval -CUP No. 25-007 c: Honorable Mayor and City Council Chair and Planning Commission Travis Hopkins, City Manager Jennifer Villasenor, Director of Community Development Martin Ortiz, Fire Deputy Chief Connor Hyland, Senior Deputy City Attorney Bob Milani, Principal Civil Engineer Jasmine Daley, Building Official Marco Cuevas, Associate Planner Property Owner Project File 264 ATTACHMENT NO.1 FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-007 FINDINGS FOR PROJECTS EXEMPT FROM CEQA: The Planning Commission finds that the project will not have any significant effect on the environment and is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines because the project will allow for beer and wine service within an approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area with full table service in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment; and the project does not involve an expansion to an existing structure. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL-CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-007: 1. Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood because the use is located within an existing open space park setting. The use is primarily an eating and drinking establishment and the request for alcohol service is ancillary to the primary use. The establishment of a restaurant with service of beer and wine sales will benefit and serve the surrounding area by providing a new service and all operations associated with the proposed use will occur within the delineated outdoor dining area. Although the requested use is proposed to take place within a public park setting, the outdoor patio dining area will be provided with a fence barrier, and a condition has been placed that no alcoholic beverages shall be consumed on any property adjacent to the licensed premises and must be consumed within the demarcated eating establishment's patio dining area. The sale, service and consumption of beer and wine within the proposed outdoor dining area is not anticipated to generate additional noise, traffic, or impacts above existing conditions. Furthermore, the eating and drinking establishment is oriented on the east side of Goldenwest Street between Talbert Avenue and Ellis Avenue, with the outdoor dining patio facing existing baseball fields two and three, with the closest residences located over 450 ft. to the south. 2. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not adversely affect the General Plan because it is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of OS-P (Open Space -Park) on the subject property. In addition, it is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General Plan: Land Use Element 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. G:IPCINOA\251080525 CUP 25-007 (HB Sports Complex) Attachment 1.1 265 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. Goal LU-14: Huntington Beach continues to attract visitors and provides a variety of attractions and accommodations during their stay. Policy LU-14 (8): Encourage both coastal and inland visitor serving uses to offer a wide spectrum of opportunities for residents and visitors. Environmental Resources and Conservation Element Policy ERC-1 (H): Administer the City's open space program in a manner that supports lands, resources, and services provided in regional parks, open spaces, and conservation plans. Policy ERC-2 (8): Ensure that buildings, equipment, fields, and other recreation amenities are in full use and capable of accommodating changing program demands. The request will expand the range of goods and services provided at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex by permitting the ancillary sale of beer and wine in conjunction with an eating and drinking establishment in a safe manner for residents and customers from the surrounding area. The establishment provides expanded goods and services to meet the needs of the area and will add to the capture of sales tax revenue. The proposed use is in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment within the Huntington Beach Sports Complex in Central Park. The expansion of beer and wine service at existing Sports Complex concessions will enhance the visitor experience and make the Sports Complex a more marketable amenity in attracting new user groups, events and tournaments. 3. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will comply with the provisions of the base district and other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO) because beer and wine sales within eating and drinking establishments with full table service are permitted subject to a Conditional Use Permit within the Open Space -Parks and Recreation Subdistrict. The proposed outdoor patio dining area will be located within the premises of an existing eating and drinking establishment building, which conforms to applicable site development standards, including parking. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL-CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-007: 1.

Sincerely, Jennifer Villasenor, Secretary Planning Commission By: r-r------ Ricky Ramos, Planning Manager JV:RR:MC:kdc Attachment: Finding and Conditions of Approval -CUP No. 25-014 c: Honorable Mayor and City Council Chair and Planning Commission Travis Hopkins, City Manager Jennifer Villasenor, Director of Community Development Martin Ortiz, Fire Deputy Chief Connor Hyland, Senior Deputy City Attorney Bob Milani, Principal Civil Engineer Jasmine Daley, Building Official Marco Cuevas, Associate Planner Property Owner Project File 271 ATTACHMENT NO. 1 FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014 FINDINGS FOR PROJECTS EXEMPT FROM CEQA: The Planning Commission finds that the project will not have any significant effect on the environment and is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines because the project will allow for beer and wine service within an approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area with full table service in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment; and the project does not involve an expansion to an existing structure. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL-CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014: 1. Conditional Use Permit No. 25-014 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood because the use is located within an existing open space park setting. The use is primarily an eating and drinking establishment and the request for alcohol service is ancillary to the primary use. The establishment of a restaurant with service of beer and wine sales will benefit and serve the surrounding area by providing a new service and all operations associated with the proposed use will occur within the delineated outdoor dining area. Although the requested use is proposed to take place within a public park setting, the outdoor patio dining area will be provided with a fence barrier, and a condition has been placed that no alcoholic beverages shall be consumed on any property adjacent to the licensed premises and must be consumed within the demarcated eating establishment's patio dining area. The sale, service and consumption of beer and wine within the proposed outdoor dining area is not anticipated to generate additional noise, traffic, or impacts above existing conditions. Furthermore, the eating and drinking establishment is oriented south of Talbert Avenue, facing the existing surface parking lot, with the closest residences located over 2,000 feet to the northwest and southwest. 2. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-014 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not adversely affect the General Plan because it is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of OS-P (Open Space -Park) on the subject property. In addition, it is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General Plan: Land Use Element 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. G:\PC\NOA\25\080525 CUP 25-014 (HB Sports Complex) Attachment 1.1 272 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. Goal LU-14: Huntington Beach continues to attract visitors and provides a variety of attractions and accommodations during their stay. Policy LU-14 (B): Encourage both coastal and inland visitor serving uses to offer a wide spectrum of opportunities for residents and visitors. Environmental Resources and Conservation Element Policy ERC-1 (H): Administer the City's open space program in a manner that supports lands, resources, and services provided in regional parks, open spaces, and conservation plans. Policy ERC-2 (B): Ensure that buildings, equipment, fields, and other recreation amenities are in full use and capable of accommodating changing program demands. The request will expand the range of goods and services provided at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex by permitting the ancillary sale of beer and wine in conjunction with an eating and drinking establishment in a safe manner for residents and customers from the surrounding area. The establishment provides expanded goods and services to meet the needs of the area and will add to the capture of sales tax revenue. The proposed use is in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment within the Huntington Beach Sports Complex in Central Park. The expansion of beer and wine service at existing Sports Complex concessions will enhance the visitor experience and make the Sports Complex a more marketable amenity in attracting new user groups, events and tournaments. 3. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-014 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will comply with the provisions of the base district and other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO) because beer and wine sales within eating and drinking establishments with full table service are permitted subject to a Conditional Use Permit within the Open Space -Parks and Recreation Subdistrict. The proposed outdoor patio dining area will be located within the premises of an existing eating and drinking establishment building, which conforms to applicable site development standards, including parking.

FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL – CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-007: 1. Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood because the use is located within an existing open space park setting. The use is primarily an eating and drinking establishment and the request for alcohol service is ancillary to the primary use. The establishment of a restaurant with service of beer and wine sales will benefit and serve the surrounding area by providing a new service and all operations associated with the proposed use will occur within the delineated outdoor dining area. Although the requested use is proposed to take place within a public park setting, the outdoor patio dining area will be provided with a fence barrier, and a condition has been placed that no alcoholic beverages shall be consumed on any property adjacent to the licensed premises and must be consumed within the demarcated eating establishment’s patio dining area. The sale, service and consumption of beer and wine within the proposed outdoor dining area is not anticipated to generate additional noise, traffic, or impacts above existing conditions. Furthermore, the eating and drinking establishment is oriented on the east side of Goldenwest Street between Talbert Avenue and Ellis Avenue, with the outdoor dining patio facing existing baseball fields two and three, with the closest residences located over 450 ft. to the south. 2. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not adversely affect the General Plan because it is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of OS-P (Open Space – Park) on the subject property. In addition, it is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General Plan: Land Use Element 279 PC Minutes August 5, 2025 Page 5 25pcm0805 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. 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. Goal LU-14: Huntington Beach continues to attract visitors and provides a variety of attractions and accommodations during their stay. Policy LU-14 (B): Encourage both coastal and inland visitor serving uses to offer a wide spectrum of opportunities for residents and visitors. Environmental Resources and Conservation Element Policy ERC-1 (H): Administer the City’s open space program in a manner that supports lands, resources, and services provided in regional parks, open spaces, and conservation plans. Policy ERC-2 (B): Ensure that buildings, equipment, fields, and other recreation amenities are in full use and capable of accommodating changing program demands. The request will expand the range of goods and services provided at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex by permitting the ancillary sale of beer and wine in conjunction with an eating and drinking establishment in a safe manner for residents and customers from the surrounding area. The establishment provides expanded goods and services to meet the needs of the area and will add to the capture of sales tax revenue. The proposed use is in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment within the Huntington Beach Sports Complex in Central Park. The expansion of beer and wine service at existing Sports Complex concessions will enhance the visitor experience and make the Sports Complex a more marketable amenity in attracting new user groups, events and tournaments. 3. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will comply with the provisions of the base district and other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO) because beer and wine sales within eating and drinking establishments with full table service are permitted subject to a Conditional Use Permit within the Open Space – Parks and Recreation Subdistrict.

THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED. Dave Chennault, resident, asked about enforcement of code violations for alcohol advertisement, Lieutenant White explained the municipal code enforcement process. Dan Hay, resident, spoke in opposition, citing the potential negative impacts to youth sports and youth sports players. WITH NO ONE PRESENT TO SPEAK, THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.

A MOTION WAS MADE BY GOLDBERG, SECONDED BY THIENES, TO FIND THE PROPOSED PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) PURSUANT TO SECTION 15301, CLASS 1 AND APPROVE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014 WITH SUGGESTED FINDINGS AND MODIFIED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL TO INCLUDE CONSUMPTION AT THE TABLE, REQUIRE A SOLID BARRIER, REQUIRE DELINEATORS TO THE WALK UP WINDOW, REQUIRE SECURITY ONSITE, AND SET ALCOHOL HOURS OF SERVICE BETWEEN NOON AND TEN P.M., BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: AYES: Thienes, Babineau, Goldberg NOES: Pellman, McGee, Bush ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: Palmer MOTION FAILED A MOTION WAS MADE BY BUSH, SECONDED BY PELLMAN, TO DENY CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014, BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: AYES: Pellman, McGee, Bush 284 PC Minutes August 5, 2025 Page 10 25pcm0805 NOES: Thienes, Babineau, Goldberg ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: Palmer MOTION FAILED A MOTION WAS MADE BY GOLDBERG, SECONDED BY THIENES, TO FIND THE PROPOSED PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) PURSUANT TO SECTION 15301, CLASS 1 AND APPROVE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014 WITH SUGGESTED FINDINGS AND MODIFIED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL TO INCLUDE CONSUMPTION AT THE TABLE, REQUIRE A SOLID BARRIER, REQUIRE DELINEATORS TO THE WALK UP WINDOW, REQUIRE SECURITY ONSITE, AND SET ALCOHOL HOURS OF SERVICE BETWEEN NOON AND TEN P.M., BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: AYES: Thienes, Babineau, Palmer, Goldberg NOES: Pellman, McGee, Bush ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None MOTION APPROVED FINDINGS FOR PROJECTS EXEMPT FROM CEQA: The Planning Commission finds that the project will not have any significant effect on the environment and is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines because the project will allow for beer and wine service within an approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area with full table service in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment; and the project does not involve an expansion to an existing structure. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL – CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014: 1. Conditional Use Permit No. 25-014 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood because the use is located within an existing open space park setting. The use is primarily an eating and drinking establishment and the request for alcohol service is ancillary to the primary use. The establishment of a restaurant with service of beer and wine sales will benefit and serve the surrounding area by providing a new service and all operations associated with the proposed use will occur within the delineated outdoor dining area. Although the requested use is proposed to take place within a public park setting, the outdoor patio dining area will be provided with a fence barrier, and a condition has been placed that no alcoholic beverages shall be consumed on any property adjacent to the licensed premises and must be consumed within the demarcated eating establishment’s patio dining area. The sale, service and consumption of beer and wine within the proposed outdoor dining area is not anticipated to generate additional noise, traffic, or impacts above existing conditions. Furthermore, the eating and drinking establishment is oriented south of Talbert Avenue, facing the existing 285 PC Minutes August 5, 2025 Page 11 25pcm0805 surface parking lot, with the closest residences located over 2,000 feet to the northwest and southwest. 2. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-014 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not adversely affect the General Plan because it is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of OS-P (Open Space – Park) on the subject property. In addition, it is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General Plan: Land Use Element 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. 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. Goal LU-14: Huntington Beach continues to attract visitors and provides a variety of attractions and accommodations during their stay. Policy LU-14 (B): Encourage both coastal and inland visitor serving uses to offer a wide spectrum of opportunities for residents and visitors. Environmental Resources and Conservation Element Policy ERC-1 (H): Administer the City’s open space program in a manner that supports lands, resources, and services provided in regional parks, open spaces, and conservation plans. Policy ERC-2 (B): Ensure that buildings, equipment, fields, and other recreation amenities are in full use and capable of accommodating changing program demands. The request will expand the range of goods and services provided at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex by permitting the ancillary sale of beer and wine in conjunction with an eating and drinking establishment in a safe manner for residents and customers from the surrounding area. The establishment provides expanded goods and services to meet the needs of the area and will add to the capture of sales tax revenue. The proposed use is in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment within the Huntington Beach Sports Complex in Central Park. The expansion of beer and wine service at existing Sports Complex concessions will enhance the visitor experience and make the Sports Complex a more marketable amenity in attracting new user groups, events and tournaments. 3. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-014 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will comply with the provisions of the base district and other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO) 286 PC Minutes August 5, 2025 Page 12 25pcm0805 because beer and wine sales within eating and drinking establishments with full table service are permitted subject to a Conditional Use Permit within the Open Space – Parks and Recreation Subdistrict. The proposed outdoor patio dining area will be located within the premises of an existing eating and drinking establishment building, which conforms to applicable site development standards, including parking.

FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL -TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO. 25-144 (TPM-25-002): 1. Tentative Parcel Map No. 25-144 (TPM-25-002) for the subdivision of one 6,236 sq. ft. lot (71.89' wide by 88.36' deep) into two approximately 3,118 sq. ft. lots is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Element designation of Residential Medium-High Density on the subject property. The proposed subdivision complies with all applicable provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and the HBZSO and is consistent with previous subdivisions in the surrounding neighborhood. The project includes demolition of the existing residential structures and will provide for the future development of two new single-family dwellings, in accordance with applicable land use, density and development standards. 2. The site is physically suitable for the type and density of development allowed by the corresponding zoning designation. Although no development is proposed at this time, the site is currently developed with a duplex to be demolished. The proposed two-lot subdivision will comply with all applicable code provision of the HBZSO including the minimum parcel size of 2,500 sq. ft. and minimum lot width of 25 feet, as required in the RMH-A (Residential Medium High Density -Small Lot) zoning district. The proposed lots are level, rectangular and present no significant constraints to development. The site is accessible from an existing public street and all necessary public utilities and services are available. 3. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements will not cause serious health problems or substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The subdivision is proposed for a property previously developed for residential use. The site does not serve as a habitat for fish or wildlife. 4. The design of the subdivision or future improvements will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision, since no access easements exist within the proposed subdivision. Vehicular access to the site would be along Portland Circle abutting the front property line. Reciprocal easements for utility services currently exist within the front six feet of each lot.

He confirmed that they will acquire a state mandate through ABC and have those certifications on site. Mr. Cuevas, confirmed that he received the updated plans, and they comply with the recommendations from the Design Review Board to have the area fully enclosed. He stated that staff discussed what constitutes full-service as customers seated, orders are taken by servers, meals are brought to tables, and essentially being catered too. Jerry Marchbank, representative of the applicant, stated that plans for signage for the proposed project were undergoing the permitting process. He also asked that Conditions #3 and 4 be amended to clarify that table and bar will be fully serviced, as stated in their narrative.

The use is primarily an eating and drinking establishment and the request for alcohol service is ancillary to the primary use. The establishment of a restaurant with service of beer and wine sales will benefit and serve the surrounding area by providing a new service and all operations associated with the proposed use will occur within the delineated outdoor dining area. Although the requested use is proposed to take place within a public park setting, the outdoor patio dining area will be provided with a fence barrier, and a condition has been placed that no alcoholic beverages shall be consumed on any property adjacent to the licensed premises and must be consumed within the demarcated eating establishment's patio dining area. The sale, service and consumption of beer and wine within the proposed outdoor dining area is not anticipated to generate additional noise, traffic, or impacts above existing conditions. Furthermore, the eating and drinking establishment is oriented on the east side of Goldenwest Street between G:IZAIZAMIN\25\zm071625.Doc 11 (25zm0716) 321 Talbert Avenue and Ellis Avenue, with the outdoor dining patio facing existing baseball fields two and three, with the closest residences located over 450 ft. to the south. 2.

In addition, it is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General Plan: Land Use Element 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. 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. Goal LU-14: Huntington Beach continues to attract visitors and provides a variety of attractions and accommodations during their stay. Policy LU-14 (B): Encourage both coastal and inland visitor serving uses to offer a wide spectrum of opportunities for residents and visitors. The request will expand the range of goods and services provided in the area by permitting the ancillary sale of beer and wine in conjunction with an eating and drinking establishment in a safe manner for residents and customers from the surrounding area. The establishment provides expanded goods and services to meet the needs of the area and will add to the capture of sales tax revenue. The proposed use is located within an existing eating and drinking establishment within an existing park area situated within the Huntington Beach Sports Complex area on the east side of Goldenwest Street between Talbert Avenue and Ellis Avenue with adequate accessibility. 3. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-007 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will comply with the provisions of the base district and other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO) because beer and wine sales within eating and drinking establishments with full table service are permitted subject to a Conditional Use Permit within the Open Space -Parks and Recreation Subdistrict.

ITEM 5: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014 (HUNTINGTON BEACH SPORTS COMPLEX): APPLICANT: PROPERTY OWNER: REQUEST: ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS: LOCATION: CITY CONTACT: Matt Olmstead, HBSC Partners, 18100 Goldenwest Street, Huntington Beach, CA 92648 City of Huntington Beach, PO Box 190, Huntington Beach, CA 92648 To allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC Type 41 License) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex. This request is covered by Categorical Exemption, Class 1, Section 15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act. 7300 Talbert Avenue, 92648 (South side of Talbert Avenue between Goldenwest Street and Gothard Street) Marco Cuevas Jr. Marco Cuevas Jr., Associate Planner, displayed project plans and stated the purpose, location, zoning, and existing use of the subject site. Staff provided an overview of the proposed project and the suggested findings and conditions for approval as presented in the executive summary. Staff received one public comment through email with comments and concerns regarding the G:IZAIZAMIN\25\zm071625.Doc 15 (25zm0716) 325 proposed request. Staff modified Condition 25; to add language that the design barrier will prohibit the passing of alcohol. Joanna Cortez, Zoning Administrator, had no questions for staff. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED. Jerry March bank, representative of the applicant, stated that they had provided staff with updated plans before the meeting. Dave Chennault, resident, expressed concerns regarding QR ordering and that he doesn't believe that it is allowed in this state to order alcohol without food online. He noted that the patrons who are kids will have to walk through the full-service restaurant with alcohol to get their concessions. He stated that the water fountains for the playgrounds are in this facility. He commented that patrons should not be able to stand and drink beers, they should be seated for a full-service restaurant. Tracy Pellman, Planning Commissioner and resident, stated that the lease agreement was reviewed by City Attorney Micheal Gates and that he relied on Measure L. She noted that it was voted between 1995-1996 and this project happened after the 2000s, and because of Measure C it is required for anything involving parks to go forth a vote for the people. She noted that since there have been many modifications, the application should be continued and brought back, so that there is transparency with the public. Louie Palmerin, Director of Food and Beverage, confirmed that QR ordering will be used in a standard form in which anyone that orders alcohol, their ID will be checked. The QR code is meant to expedite service but there will still be an assigned server to a table and when patrons are greeted, their ID will be checked before the alcohol is served. He also confirmed that it is allowed for people to stand and drink a beer. Chris Cole, Community Services Manager, confirmed that this application went through the traditional tracking process and was reviewed by all necessary departments. He stated that the RFP went out twice because some council members felt like it needed to be revised. He confirmed with a lease agreement such as this, it is routed for approval, it is reviewed first by the City Attorney's office and then City Council for approval. THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE PRESENT TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST THE REQUEST AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. Ms. Cortez stated that she would approve the request along with the following modifications: • Amended Condition 1 to include the floor and site plan received and dated 07/16/25. • Add Condition 1 C to state that the barrier that is modified to comply with Condition 25, designed in a manner to prohibit the passing of alcohol. • Condition 1 modified to include the narrative, so if there is an enforcement issue, they can easily see how the business is supposed to operate. • Add a condition that any proposed signs shall be reviewed and approved, on separate permits by the Community Development Department. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014 WAS APPROVED BY THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR WITH THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS AND MODIFIED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL. STAFF STATED THAT THE ACTION TAKEN BY THE ZONING G:IZAIZAMIN\25\zm071625.Doc 16 (25zm0716) 326 ADMINISTRATOR MAY BE APPEALED TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION WITHIN TEN (10) CALENDAR DAYS. FINDINGS FOR PROJECTS EXEMPT FROM CEQA: The Zoning Administrator finds that the project will not have any significant effect on the environment and is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines because the project will allow for beer and wine service within an approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area with full table service in conjunction with an existing eating and drinking establishment; and the project does not involve an expansion to an existing structure. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL -CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014: 1. Conditional Use Permit No. 25-014 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood because the use is located within an existing open space park setting. The use is primarily an eating and drinking establishment and the request for alcohol service is ancillary to the primary use. The establishment of a restaurant with service of beer and wine sales will benefit and serve the surrounding area by providing a new service and all operations associated with the proposed use will occur within the delineated outdoor dining area. Although the requested use is proposed to take place within a public park setting, the outdoor patio dining area will be provided with a fence barrier, and a condition has been placed that no alcoholic beverages shall be consumed on any property adjacent to the licensed premises and must be consumed within the demarcated eating establishment's patio dining area. The sale, service and consumption of beer and wine within the proposed outdoor dining area is not anticipated to generate additional noise, traffic, or impacts above existing conditions. Furthermore, the eating and drinking establishment is oriented south of Talbert Avenue, facing the existing surface parking lot, with the closest residences located over 2,000 feet to the northwest and southwest. 2. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-014 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will not adversely affect the General Plan because it is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of OS-P (Open Space -Park) on the subject property. In addition, it is consistent with the following goals and policies of the General Plan: Land Use Element 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. Goal LU-13: The city provides opportunities for new businesses and employees to ensure a high quality of life and thriving industry. G:IZAIZAMIN\25\zm071625.Doc 17 (25zm0716) 327 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. Goal LU-14: Huntington Beach continues to attract visitors and provides a variety of attractions and accommodations during their stay. Policy LU-14 (8): Encourage both coastal and inland visitor serving uses to offer a wide spectrum of opportunities for residents and visitors. The request will expand the range of goods and services provided in the area by permitting the ancillary sale of beer and wine in conjunction with an eating and drinking establishment in a safe manner for residents and customers from the surrounding area. The establishment provides expanded goods and services to meet the needs of the area and will add to the capture of sales tax revenue. The proposed use is located within an existing eating and drinking establishment within an existing park area situated within the Huntington Beach Sports Complex area on the south side of Talbert Avenue between Goldenwest and Gothard Street with adequate accessibility. 3. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 25-014 to allow the sales, service, and consumption of beer and wine (ABC License Type 41) within a proposed approximately 5,200 sq. ft. outdoor dining area for an eating and drinking establishment with full table service at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex will comply with the provisions of the base district and other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO) because beer and wine sales within eating and drinking establishments with full table service are permitted subject to a Conditional Use Permit within the Open Space -Parks and Recreation Subdistrict. The proposed outdoor patio dining area will be located within the premises of an existing eating and drinking establishment building, which conforms to applicable site development standards, including parking. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL -CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 25-014: 1. The site plan, floor plan, and elevations received and dated July 16, 2025, and the narrative received and dated July 8, 2025, shall be the conceptually approved design with the following modifications: a.

I’ve been a HB resident for a while, a coach for local youth organizations and high school. I spend a ton of time at the complex coaching and playing rec league sports.

I have been playing softball at the HBSC well before 2015, now coach little league at Huntington Valley Little League, and also have a travel baseball made up of only kids from HVLL. I think the addition of beer and wine at the sports complex would be a positive for the community. The additional revenue would help improve the fields but also provide a spot for teams and people to hang out longer. I’m excited to see the positive impact this will have on our community.

Learn why this is important Hi Marco My name is Mikey Duarte, and I’ve been fortunate to build a strong youth baseball brand here locally. Huntington Beach is home to nearly half of our families, and the support from this community has been incredible. I’ve had the privilege of working closely with Matt, Jerry, and Ryan for years. These guys have been instrumental in youth sports. They’re not just professionals — they’re fathers — and they treat the 400+ kids in our program like their own. Their vision for the future of sports in Huntington Beach is massive. It’s something that can truly redefine this city — not just for athletes, but for small businesses, families, and the community as a whole. With the right investment in fields, food, and family-friendly environments, this becomes more than just youth sports — it becomes a destination.

Learn why this isimportant Dear City Council, I am writing to express my full support for the Huntington Beach Sports Complex (HBSC) in their efforts to expand and grow. As you are aware, the HBSC has become a premier destination for athletics and events, gaining recognition not just in our region, but across the country. In recent years, they have made tremendous strides in enhancing their brand and solidifying their position as a leader in youth sports throughout Southern California. A key part of this growth has been their initiative to diversify the range of cuisine and beverages available at the venue. This expansion would not only enhance the experience for attendees but also bolster the Complex’s reputation. As a former president and current board member of a local Little League, as well as a Youth League coach who has spent countless hours at this venue, I strongly support their efforts to have the 1909 craft beer and concessions approved. This initiative will add to the overall experience for families and athletes, creating a more vibrant and enjoyable atmosphere. As a long-time resident of Huntington Beach, I believe that this stance is widely shared by the community, and we remain optimistic about the approval process. Thank you for your time and consideration.

This enhancement would not only elevate the experience for families, fans, and participants,but also create new opportunities for local businesses to thrive. With Huntington Beach being home to a vibrant craft beer scene and a strong community of food vendors, this initiative can support our local economy while creating a welcoming, family-friendly environment. Implementing responsible service guidelines and designated consumption areas would ensure safety and compliance with city regulations. We believe this upgrade would encourage longer stays, boost community engagement, and generate additional revenue for facility maintenance and future improvements.

Learn why this is important Allowing alcohol sales at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex can enhance the overall experience for visitors, boost local revenue, and support community events. Many sports venues across the country successfully manage alcohol sales with effective policies, ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment. Offering beer and wine can attract more attendees to games and tournaments, fostering a lively atmosphere that benefits both fans and athletes. Additionally, controlled alcohol sales can provide a significant economic boost. Revenues from these sales can be reinvested into facility improvements, youth programs, and community events, creating a positive cycle of growth and enrichment. By implementing strict ID checks, designated drinking areas, and responsible vendor training, the complex can maintain a family-friendly environment while offering adult beverage options. Overall, allowing alcohol sales not only meets consumer demand but also supports the complex’s financial sustainability and enhances the community’s recreational offerings.

Learn why this is important Hello Gentlemen, My name is Clay Botkin and I have been an active member in the HB community since moving here 15 years ago. As a father, business owner, football coach, baseball coach, adult softball player, and event organizer, I am writing to you to express my extreme excitement over the transformation of the Sports Complex. I would like to offer my emphatic support of the Sports Complex's efforts to make Huntington Beach THE destination for travel ball tournaments, festivals, and concerts. In my mind, to make this happen, it is crucial to offer more than what standard city-run facilities offer, including the ability to sell beer and wine. The Sports Complex has the makings of a world class facility and the city of Huntington Beach is on the precipice of rebranding itself in a very positive way. We are a city of a deeply rooted surf culture, but also of extremely reputable sports programs. Between HBHS being a nationally ranked baseball team year after year, Ocean View Little League winning the World Series, Edison competing at the state level for Football, etc., we are becoming a sports Mecca in Orange County and we deserve a facility that reflects that identity. The transformation of the Sports Complex isn't just about giving adult softballers the ability to have a beer with their friends - it's about expanding the points of interest in HB from our downtown scene to something broader. It's about making HB the place travel sports teams aim to visit when they're planning their next trip. It's about drawing interest from around the nation, which helps tourism, helps house prices, and sure, it benefits the locals who want to enjoy our city as it continues to improve. Look, I get the opposing viewpoint, I really do. But, oftentimes a loud few stand in the way of much needed change - heck, I'm generally on that side of the fence. However, in this case, we are talking about driving tourism, helping the local economy, and eventually positively impacting home prices in the surrounding area. But I digress. Please accept this as my full support of the Sports Complex's transformation and its application to sell beer and wine from its snack bars.

Learn why this isimportant Dear Members of the Planning Commission, I’m writing to express my support for the approval of Craft 1909’s proposal to serve beer and wine at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex. Concerns have been raised about alcohol service creating a non-family-friendly environment. In reality, Craft 1909’s concept is not about turning the complex into a bar —it’s about enhancing the experience for families and adults who are already actively engaged in sports and recreation there. Parks and sports complexes throughout Southern California have successfully incorporated similar offerings in a safe, controlled, and family-conscious way. Craft 1909 is a local, respected business that understands the responsibility that comes with serving alcohol. Their proposal includes the necessary safeguards to ensure responsible service and consumption. Creating a space where parents can enjoy a casual drink while watching their kids play, or where adult league participants can relax after a game, promotes a welcoming and inclusive environment—not the opposite. This addition supports the evolving expectations of modern public spaces: clean, safe, and community-centered with diverse amenities for all age groups.

Spending several nights a week as well as many weekends at HB sports complex, I have often wondered why they didn’t offer beer or wine. I was happy to hear the planning commission was in favor of helping to make sure our complex is a top of the line facility. All of the top facilities offer beer and wine options. Offering these things other complexes do help in keeping our beautiful facilities competitive to draw the tournaments and leagues necessary to keep our facilities the top choice for organizations.

Learn why this is important Ricky Ramos & Marco Cuevas, I am writing to express my strong support for permitting alcohol sales at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex. As both a local resident and a supporter of community sports and recreation, I believe this change would be a valuable and responsible enhancement to the facility—one that aligns with practices already in place at comparable sports venues across our region and beyond. Many community-based sports complexes now successfully incorporate alcohol sales into their event offerings, creating a more complete and enjoyable experience for adult attendees while maintaining a safe and family-friendly environment. Facilities such as the Elk Grove Sports Complex in Sacramento County, Big League Dreams parks in cities like Redding and Cathedral City, James Regional Sports Park in Las Vegas and Cooperstown All Star Village & Dreams Park in Cooperstown New York all allow alcohol sales during games, tournaments, and events—with strict policies in place to ensure responsible consumption and oversight. Allowing controlled alcohol sales at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex would offer several meaningful benefits: 1. Improved Patron Experience: Attendees at adult league games, tournaments, and special events increasingly expect beverage options—including beer or wine—as part of the recreational experience. This amenity can elevate the complex’s reputation and draw. 2. Increased Economic Impact: Alcohol sales would generate additional revenue to help support the facility’s operations, maintenance, and programming— potentially reducing the need for public funding or fee increases for participants. 3. Competitive Event Hosting: Many large tournaments and sports events seek venues that can offer concessions including alcohol. This change would make the Huntington Beach Sports Complex more competitive when bidding to host regional or national events, bringing more visitors and business to our community. 4. Support for Local Vendors: Introducing alcohol sales opens the door for partnerships with local breweries and distributors, keeping spending within our local economy and encouraging small business growth. I understand that community safety is a top priority. With clearly defined service areas, professional staff training, designated consumption zones, and appropriate licensing, alcohol can be served responsibly—just as it is at other successful community sports complexes. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration of this proposal. I urge the Planning 356 I Commission to support this effort to modernize and enhance the Huntington Beach Sports Complex in a way that benefits residents, visitors, and the broader community alike.

Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification ] Dear Members of the Huntington Beach City Management including Mr. Cuevas & Mr. Ramos - I am writing to express my enthusiastic support for the proposed craft beer and food restaurant at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex. As a long term resident of Huntington Beach, I believe this addition would enhance the community, boost local engagement, and align with the city’s vibrant culture. Huntington Beach has a well-established reputation for its thriving beach vibe mixed with active community members. A new craft beer and food restaurant at the sports complex would complement this tradition, offering a family-friendly venue where athletes, families, and spectators can enjoy high-quality, locally inspired food and beverages. The existing 1909 Craft Beer & Concessions at the complex is a great opportunity to increase concessions, demonstrating the demand for such offerings. This restaurant would serve as a community hub, fostering social connections during games and events. It could feature local craft beers, artisan pizzas, and other fresh, locally sourced dishes, much like successful establishments such as Matter of Craft and Beachwood Pizza & Beer. By providing a welcoming atmosphere with outdoor seating options, it would cater to the laid-back, coastal vibe of Surf City, encouraging visitors to linger and engage with the community. Economically, the restaurant would attract more visitors to the sports complex, boosting local business and supporting events like the Taste of Huntington Beach, which already showcases the area’s culinary diversity at the complex. It would also create jobs and provide opportunities for local breweries and food vendors to collaborate, strengthening Huntington Beach’s reputation as a destination for sporting events, craft beer and dining. As Huntington Beach becomes an even greater travel destination city that attracts three generations of families enjoying all that HB has to offer, I strongly urge the City Council to approve this proposal, as it aligns with our community’s values of quality, local pride, and vibrant social spaces. Thank you for considering this opportunity to enhance the Huntington Beach Sports Complex.

Why? 1. In roughly the past week July 27-Aug. 4, 2025, Huntington Beach Police Department made 38 alcohol related arrests; 13 people were Huntington Beach residents and 28 were from other cities. 2. In July 2025 Huntington Beach had two DUI fatalities. 3. Consumption of alcohol in sports leads to compromised motor skills, decreased coordination, delayed reactions, diminished judgment, and impaired balance, also increasing an athlete’s risk for injury. 4. Sales of alcoholic drinks at sports games and matches does increase the likelihood of violent cases when a club loses its match, according to a study in Journal of International Drug Policy. On a personal level, my sister who is a paid referee for soccer matches in California, says that parents drinking alcohol at games has put her at risk many times with their uncontrolled anger.

It is so important to encourage our young athletes to turn their backs on alcohol in favor of the “high” they can achieve through excelling in sports! We need to do this, not just in speech, but by example. Further, I think everyone is well aware how easily tempers can flair among parents at their kids’ games and events over a bad call; a questionable decision made by a Coach; or even an error made by their own child. It would only add fuel to the fire to serve alcohol to spectators that may already be expressing poor judgment in how they act or in what they say. Let’s instead set the example for our kids that we do not need drinking as a way to enhance the enjoyment of a fun sport or provide us a good time. Finally, it goes without saying that after a long afternoon of drinking in the hot sun is not the best time to put the family in the car and hit the road. Many of the participants do not live here in town and will be hopping on the freeways. Let’s do our part to be sure they are doing that “alcohol-free!” Thank you for your careful consideration of this.

The City Council voted unanimously in support of bringing the ordinance forward for consideration. Financial Impact: Not applicable. Recommended Action: Approve for introduction Ordinance No. 4339 “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Amending the Huntington Beach Municipal Code by Adding New Chapter 9.92 Thereof Prohibiting the Sale, Distribution and Possession of Kratom.” Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Kratom is a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia. Its leaves contain psychoactive compounds, including mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine, which can produce stimulant effects at low doses and sedative effects at high doses. According to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Kratom use has been associated with a range of adverse health impacts, including psychotic symptoms, dependence, and numerous side effects such as nausea, vomiting, sweating, constipation, tachycardia, seizures, hallucinations, and hepatotoxicity. Although Kratom is often marketed for relief of pain, anxiety, opioid withdrawal, and fatigue, there are City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ 403 File #:25-704 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 Although Kratom is often marketed for relief of pain, anxiety, opioid withdrawal, and fatigue, there are no FDA-approved medical uses for the substance. The FDA continues to monitor reports of adverse events, and current data suggests Kratom’s opioid-like properties may expose users to risks of addiction, abuse, and dependence. Several states and local jurisdictions have prohibited the sale or possession of Kratom, including Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Rhode Island, Vermont, Wisconsin, the City of San Diego (2016), Newport Beach (2025), and the County of Orange (2025). Kratom is not currently regulated at the federal level, nor is it prohibited statewide in California. The intention of this ordinance is to prohibit the sale, distribution, or possession of kratom and other products within the City of Huntington Beach that contain more than 2% of 7-hydroxymitraginyne in the alkaloid fraction, recognizing significant health risks associated with elevated concentrations of the alkaloid; prohibit the sale of any kratom product that is adulterated with synthesized or semi- synthesized kratom alkaloids or kratom constituents; and prohibit the sale or distribution of kratom product to a person under 21 years of age. Penalties for those who violate HBMC §9.92.030 will be guilty of a misdemeanor and may be fined up to $1000 or be imprisoned in County Jail for not more than six months; and if applicable the Huntington Beach Business License may be revoked pursuant to HBMC §5.08.300. Environmental Status: This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.

WHEREAS, it is the intent of the City Council to prohibit the sale, distribution, or possession of kratom and other products within the City of Huntington Beach that contain more than 2% of 7-hydroxymitragynine in the alkaloid fraction, recognizing the significant health risks associated with elevated concentrations of this alkaloid; and Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia, and its leaves are often consumed in powdered or extract form for their s timulant and sedative effects; and The active compounds in kratom include mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine. While mitragynine is present in higher concentrations, 7-hydroxymitragynine is more potent and is largely responsible for the stronger pain-relieving, sedative, and e uphoric effects; and 7-hydroxymitragynine binds to opioid receptors in the brain and has been shown to have euphoric and mood-enhancing effects, particularly at higher doses, which can increase its appeal for recreational use; and 7-hydroxymitragynine is believed to be more potent than morphine in terms of pain relief. Research has shown that it binds to opioid receptors in the brain with greater affinity than morphine, making it significantly more powerful in relieving pain. This greater potency raises significant concerns about its safety profile, especially regarding the potential for addiction, overdose, and adverse physical and psychological effects, including nausea, vomiting, and potential psychosis. T hese risks are compounded when products contain hi gher concentrations of 7-hydroxymi tragynine; and Scientific research and health advisories have raised concerns over the safety of kratom products, particularly those with higher concentrations of 7-hydroxymitragynine, which may increase the potential for abuse and harm to public health; and Several cities in California have taken steps to regulate or ban kratom products, recogniz ing the need to protect public safety, especially among vulnerable populations. For example, Newport Beach, San Diego, and Oceanside have all enacted a complete ban on the sale , distribution, and possess ion of all kratom products -irrespective of the concentration of 7- hydroxymitragynine content; and T he U.S. Food and Drug Administration has issued several warning letters to various companies for illega ll y marketing products containing en h anced levels of 7 - hy droxymitragy nine, culminating in a formal requ est to the Drug Enforcement Administration 25-16974/387632 406 ORDINANCE NO. 4339 (DEA) on July 29, 2025, to place 7-hydroxymitragynine products on the controlled substance list; and The City Council is committed to safeguarding the health and well-being of its residents by ensuring that products available for sale do not pose undue health risks ; and The City Council wishes to restrict the sale and distribution of kratom and other products containing more than 2% of 7-hydroxymitragynine in the alkaloid fraction , thereby reducing potential risks to public health and safety. SECTION 2. New Chapter 9.92 is added to the Huntington Beach Municipal Code to read as follows: "C hapter 9.92 SALE, DISTRIBUTION, AND POSSESSION OF KRATOM PROHIBITED § 9.92.010 Purpose and Intent. § 9.92.020 Definitions. § 9.92.030 Sale, distribution and possession of kratom prohibited. § 9.92 .040 Violations and Penalties. § 9.92.050 Severability. § 9.92.010 Purpose and Intent.

The proposed changes add a new restriction on non-motorized trailers and make the language clearer to ensure it can be better enforced. This addresses community concerns and meets operational needs. Financial Impact: There is no direct financial impact associated with the adoption of this ordinance. The amendment does not require a change to the existing parking bail schedule. Recommended Action: Approve for introduction Ordinance No. 4338, “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Amending Section 10.44.060 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code Relating to Oversized Vehicle Parking.” Alternative Action(s): Do not approve the recommended action and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Oversized vehicle parking remains a recurring issue in the City of Huntington Beach, particularly in residential neighborhoods where large vehicles and trailers can obstruct visibility, limit street access, and negatively impact neighborhood aesthetics. The existing language in Huntington Beach Municipal Code Section 10.44.060 restricts the parking of motor vehicles that exceed 22 feet in length or 84 inches in width, and prohibits recreational vehicles of any size, as defined by the California Health and Safety Code. However, the current ordinance language is not specific enough and has caused confusion among residents about which vehicles are actually restricted. Because the City of Huntington Beach Printed on 8/28/2025Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™ 410 File #:25-663 MEETING DATE:9/2/2025 and has caused confusion among residents about which vehicles are actually restricted. Because the wording “over 84 inches wide” appears without being clearly linked to the 22-foot length standard, some have interpreted the code to mean that only vehicles both over 22 feet long and over 84 inches wide are prohibited. This has created a loophole that members of the public have used to dispute citations, particularly in cases involving vehicles that exceed one dimension limit but not the other. Additionally, the ordinance lacks specific provisions addressing non-motorized trailers, further complicating enforcement. Ordinance No. 4338 addresses these concerns by making two key updates to the existing code. First, Section A has been revised to clearly state that vehicles are restricted if they exceed either 22 feet in length or 84 inches in width, and to clarify how both dimensions are measured, specifying that length and width must be taken from the furthest or widest point of the vehicle, including any extensions or attachments. This clarification will ensure consistent enforcement and eliminate ambiguity about which vehicles qualify as oversized. Second, a new Section C has been added to prohibit the parking of any non-motorized trailer, regardless of size or whether it is attached to a vehicle. This addition aims to close a common enforcement gap and provide tools to manage the long-term storage of trailers, such as boat trailers and utility trailers. The revised ordinance maintains the City's flexibility to grant exemptions through HBMC Section 10.44.062 and 10.44.065, allowing residents to obtain temporary permits for oversized vehicles in certain cases, including loading and unloading, visitor accommodations, or short-term work or medical needs. Ordinance No. 4338 will take effect 30 days after adoption, in accordance with California Government Code Section 36937. Environmental Status: This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.

Governor Newsom’s attempt to alter the House of Representatives is blatantly partisan and contrary to the history of allowing the Independent Redistricting Commission to determine congressional maps. The Independent Redistricting Commission was approved by the state voters and selects districts via a detailed, comprehensive process. There is no legitimate need to change this process. Governor Newsom’s blatant attempt to revoke the will of the voters is unnecessary political theatre and is contrary to the will of the voters and the spirit of the California Constitution. The State of California is in financial crisis and to add the exorbitant cost, with some estimates exceeding $200 million, of this unnecessary special election is the epitome of poor leadership and fiscal mismanagement, especially when public safety, homelessness services and many other essential issues urgently need additional funding. RECOMMENDED ACTION Direct the City Manager to draft a resolution for City Council approval in opposition to Governor Newsom’s special election regarding redistricting and bring the resolution back for consideration on September 16, 2025. ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
