allow for a hotel use with a maximum 0.92 FAR. In addition, general offices,
medical - dental offices, public uses, recreational uses (public and private), research
and development uses, and restaurants and cafes would have a 0.80 maximum FAR.
0 i-2

3) Specific Plan (SP) No. 09 -02 — Addition of the 199 North Continental Specific Plan

Specific Plan (See Exhibit 5).
4) Zone Change (ZC) No. 09 -02 — Rezone the project site from the Corporate Office
(CO) Zone to the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan (NCBSP) Zone.

Plan.
6) Development Agreement (DA) No. 09 -03 — Execute the Development Agreement to

with the option for a five year extension) (See Exhibit 6).
7) Administrative Use Permit (AUP) No. 08 -04 — An Administrative Use Permit to
allow the sale and consumption of beer and wine and distilled spirits for on -site
consumption at a proposed hotel restaurant/bar, and the off -site sale and consumption
of beer and wine within the hotels non - restaurant areas (Type 47 ABC License). The
Planning and Building Safety Director has made the required findings to grant, and
has administratively approved, the proposed Administrative Use Permit subject to
approval of the proposed hotel project (See Exhibit 7).
II. Background
On September 25, 2008, the Planning Commission approved Environmental Assessment No.
EA -773 and Conditional Use Permit No. 07 -07 to allow construction of a six - story, 61,104
square -foot hotel on the subject site. The hotel (Aloft Hotel) was approved for a total of 167
rooms at a maximum FAR of 0.80 as permitted in the Corporate Office (CO) Zone.
At the Council's October 6, 2009 meeting, an informational item was presented to the City
Council at the applicant's request to seek direction on a possible modification to the September
2008 Planning Commission approval. At that meeting, the applicant's proposed project
modifications primarily involved a change in hotel brand, an increase in the size of the hotel by
approximately 9,900 square feet to allow for increased room sizes and greater hotel amenities, a
reduction in the total number of hotel rooms from 167 to 152 rooms, and a public benefit
contribution of on -site public art. The City Council directed staff to work with the applicant to
prepare a Specific Plan, a Development Agreement, and the appropriate environmental review
that would allow for the construction of the modified project. Council also directed the applicant
to work with staff on a suitable public benefit and to consider alternatives to the proposed public
art. The applicant now proposes to contribute $75,000 for public park and recreation capital
improvement projects to benefit children. The formal application for the new project was
submitted to the City in December 2009.
JF El Segundo Owner, LLC proposes a new project which modifies the original approvals to
change the approved 167 -room Aloft Hotel to a 152 -room Cambria Suites Hotel. The proposed
3 C��3
change would result in a reduction of 15 rooms due to the larger room size provided in the
Cambria Suites brand and the amount and size of amenities and open space, and would result in
an increase in total net floor area from 61,104 square -feet to 71,005 square -feet. The proposed
Cambria Suites building would be constructed in approximately the same location on the site.
The proposed Cambria Suites Hotel would be similar to the Aloft Hotel. However, the visual
building mass of the Cambria Suites Hotel would decrease; the building footprint of the Aloft
Hotel is roughly 15,885 square -feet and the Cambria Suites footprint is roughly 14,744 square -
feet. The included renderings illustrate the difference in building mass when viewed from El
Segundo Boulevard looking north. The second rendering shows the outline of the Aloft Building
superimposed in red over the Cambria Suites Hotel. If approved, this would be the first Cambria
Suites Hotel in California. The project is anticipated to add at least 30 full -time employees to the
City and to provide additional lodging options to support adjacent businesses and tourism.
The smaller footprint would allow for additional green space around the property which would
enhance the overall aesthetics of the building and surrounding grounds.

Site Description
The project site is located on the west side of Continental Boulevard on the block bounded by
Grand Avenue to the north, Sepulveda Boulevard to the west, Continental Boulevard to the east,
and El Segundo Boulevard to the south within the Corporate Office (CO) Zone.
The site is relatively flat, irregularly shaped and approximately 1.75 acres in total area. It is
currently occupied by a surface parking lot immediately north of and adjacent to the 16 -story
office tower currently occupied by Northrop Grumman at 101 Continental Boulevard. The
subject property was originally part of a larger 10.58 acre site which included the 8.83 acre 101
Continental Boulevard property. A lot line adjustment created the 1.75 acre project site.
Surrounding Land Uses
The adjacent area is surrounded primarily with office uses. Specifically, the site is surrounded
by high -rise office towers in the Corporate Office Zone (CO) Zone to the north, east, and west,
and the Raytheon Campus in the Light Manufacturing (M -1) Zone to the south. Surrounding
land uses are as described in the following table:
North General Office Corporate Office (CO)
General Office; Raytheon Campus Corporate Office (CO); Light
South (Research and Development) Manufacturing (M -1)
East General Office/Hotel Corporate Office (CO)
West I General Office/Parking Structures I Corporate Office (CO
III. Analysis
Project Description and Land Use
The requested approvals are intended to provide consistency between the proposed hotel project
and the zoning and general plan designations of the property. Further, the proposed project and
designations are intended to be consistent with the designations and existing uses of the adjacent
properties.
General Plan Amendment and Rezoning
The proposed General Plan Amendment and Zone Change would establish the 199 North
Continental Boulevard Specific Plan ( NCBSP). The NCBSP will allow a range of uses and a
maximum density at the project site similar to the adjacent Corporate Office (CO) Zone and
would not conflict with the adjacent uses located on neighboring parcels. Multi -story general
office with ancillary ground floor retail uses, light industrial uses, and other hotels characterize
0177

the area surrounding the project site. Changing the project site to the 199 North Continental
Boulevard Specific Plan (NCBSP) would result in a range of uses similar to and consistent with
existing surrounding uses in the Corporate Office (CO) Zone, and will allow a hotel use with an
increased floor area ratio (FAR). The other uses proposed for this land use designation include
general office, medical - dental offices, public uses, recreational uses (public and private),
research and development uses, and restaurant and caf6 uses.
While the General Plan re- designation and re- zoning will increase the allowable FAR for a hotel
on the site to 0.92, all other permitted uses would retain the same 0.80 FAR that is permitted in
the Corporate Office (CO) Zone. This 12% increase in allowable floor area for hotel uses only,
results in an increase of 9,901 square feet of potential hotel development at the project site.
This Cambria Suites Hotel project, while increasing in overall size as compared to the original
approval (Aloft Hotel), would actually have a smaller building footprint and a reduced building
mass. Additionally, the reduction in total rooms from 167 to 152 would reduce project impacts.
Specific Plan
A Specific Plan was prepared to encourage the development of a hotel and to allow a greater
maximum FAR of 0.92 for a hotel use than the other permitted uses in the Specific Plan.
Additionally, it establishes minimum expectations for the development of a hotel while
providing flexibility in design through the use of design standards and minimum design features
for hotel uses as set forth in the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan §§ 3 (F) and
3(G). This flexibility permits larger size rooms and more hotel amenities. The proposed
increase in the project size of 9,901 square feet will include increased room sizes, increased
conference /meeting room area, and increased indoor fitness room area. The Specific Plan will
guide the build -out of the project site in a manner that is consistent with City and State policies
and standards and ensures that the project is developed in a coordinated manner. The proposed
Specific Plan is consistent with the General Plan.
Development Agreement
The proposed Development Agreement is effective for eight years, except that it allows either
party to extend the Agreement for an additional five years. Typical Development Agreements
approved by the City, including the Agreements for Plaza El Segundo, the Campus El Segundo,
and the Everest Storage projects have included similar time frames and extension periods. Recent
Development Agreements for the Grand Avenue Corporate Center and Mattel Inc. have set
eight -year terms with no extension provisions.
The applicant proposes to contribute $75,000 to the City to fund public park and recreational
capital improvement projects to benefit children. One -half of the donation will be paid before
building permits are issued and the remaining one -half will be paid when the City issues a
Certificate of Occupancy. The applicant has also proposed constructing a Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design (LEED) certified building.
8 L1i8
Access and Parking
Site access would be available via two driveways. Primary access would be from Continental
Boulevard and secondary access would be from El Segundo Boulevard. A Reciprocal Access
Agreement is required with the property at 101 North Continental Boulevard for shared driveway
access.
A total of 139 parking spaces plus two loading spaces are required for the project per ESMC §
15 -15 -3. The project proposes to provide 89 parking spaces and two loading spaces on site.
Fifty additional parking spaces needed to meet the minimum ESMC requirement of 139 spaces.
These spaces will be provided through the use of excess spaces that are available for the office
tower at the property at 101 North Continental Boulevard subject to a recorded parking covenant
as required by ESMC § 15 -15 -8. Parking for the office tower was calculated based on the
following (ESMC § 15- 15- 3(B)(5)):
Office: 1/300 square feet for the first 25,000 square feet.
1/350 square feet for the second 25,000 square feet.
1/400 square feet for the area in excess of 50,000 square feet.
The minimum number of parking spaces required for the 307,421 square -foot office tower at 101
North Continental Boulevard is 798 where 1,018 parking spaces are provided. Thus, there are
220 spaces in excess of the number of parking spaces required by the ESMC. Therefore, the
proposed project at 199 North Continental Boulevard can use 50 off -site parking spaces from the
property at 101 North Continental Boulevard to meet the parking requirement for the proposed
hotel project. The parking areas would be open and accessible to hotel patrons and persons
doing business in the office tower.
Landscaping
Landscaping would include a mix of trees and shrubs /vines and ground cover. Specifically, palm
trees and shade canopy trees of various species would be planted along the access drive aisles,
throughout the parking lot, and surrounding the hotel structure. Evergreen shrubs and ground
cover are proposed to be used for property perimeter areas, building perimeter areas, and used
for screening or hedging around hotel, the parking lot, and pool area. Evergreen flowering vines
and ground cover are also proposed surrounding the hotel structure, within in the parking lot, and
along the access driveways. Additionally, the applicant has participated with the 101
Continental Boulevard property owner in substantially upgrading the front and driveway
entrance landscape pallets to provide for a "Grand Entrance" at El Segundo Boulevard and along
the entrance at Continental Boulevard. While the plans are still in concept, the project will be
conditioned to meet the code required minimums for vehicle use areas, and building and
perimeter landscape requirements.
Hotel Amenities, Architecture and LEED Design
Cambria Suites is a new upscale brand offered by Choice Hotels designed for both business and
leisure travelers. Guest rooms are larger than industry standard and have a separate bedroom and
living room. The hotel common area offers amenities such as a full buffet breakfast, a coffee
and snack bar available throughout the day, and restaurant/bar with service available from 4:30
9 C'
p.m. to 11:30 p.m. The hotel includes 1,307 square feet of conference /meeting room space, a
1,257 square -foot fitness center, and an outdoor pool.
The hotel building will make use of modern architectural style, more commercial than
residential, with the purpose of being distinct, but compatible with existing mid - and high -rise
office buildings in the area. The design avoids the appearance of long flat planes through the use
of both vertical and horizontal projections and a variety of materials and colors on all building
elevations. The building provides an attractive combination of exterior materials using brown
stucco and brick veneer with contemporary metal details. Overall, the proposed hotel building
will enhance the aesthetic appearance of the site and add more interest to the existing surface
parking lot when viewed from Continental Boulevard and El Segundo Boulevard.
The project architect is working with a sub - consultant that specializes in LEED to qualify the
project for LEED certification. The building will at a minimum meet the basic LEED
certification level.
IV. Application Findings
In order to approve the project, the City Council must take certain actions related to the
environmental review, General Plan Amendment land use designation, Zone Change, Zone Text
Amendment, Specific Plan and Development Agreement. The required findings for each
application are discussed in detail in the attached draft Resolution and draft Ordinance. Staff
believes that the City Council may make the required findings to adopt the Addendum to the
Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP),
and to approve the General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Zone Text Amendment, Specific
Plan, and Development Agreement as outlined in the draft Resolution and draft Ordinance.
V. Planning Commission Hearing and Public Input
The Planning Commission held its public hearing on the proposed project on March 18, 2010.
The applicant presented testimony at the public hearing. There was no other testimony at the
public hearing. No written comments were received from other responsible agencies or from the
public prior to the Commission hearing. The Commission recommended approval.
VI. Conclusion and Recommendation
Planning staff believes that the proposed Cambria Suites Hotel project meets the mandatory
findings as set forth in the staff report if the proposed mitigation measures are adopted and the
proposed conditions of approval are incorporated. Therefore, Planning staff recommends that the
City Council adopt the Addendum to the Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Mitigation
Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP), and approve General Plan Amendment No. 09 -02,
Zone Change No. 09 -02, Zone Text Amendment No. 09 -04, Specific Plan No. 09 -02, and
Development Agreement No. 09 -03, with conditions, since the required findings for support

FOOT HOTEL AT 199 NORTH CONTINENTAL BOULEVARD.
The City Council of the City of El Segundo does resolve as follows:
SECTION 1: The City Council finds and declares that:
A. On December 1, 2009, JF El Segundo Owner, LLC, filed an application for
an Environmental Assessment (EA No. 844), General Plan Amendment
No. 09 -02, Zone Change No. 09 -02, Zone Text Amendment No. 09 -04,
Specific Plan No. 09 -02, Development Agreement No. 09 -03, and
Administrative Use Permit No. 09 -06 to re- designate and rezone an
approximately 1.75 acre property at 199 North Continental Boulevard from
Corporate Office (CO) Zone to 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific
Plan (NCBSP) to allow construction of a six -story, 71,005 square -foot
hotel with 152 rooms;
B. The application was reviewed by the City of El Segundo Planning and
Building Safety Department for, in part, consistency with the General Plan
and conformity with the El Segundo Municipal Code ( "ESMC ");
C. In addition, the City reviewed the project's environmental impacts under
the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§
21000, et seq., "CEQA "), the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal.
Code of Regulations § §15000, et seq., the "CEQA Guidelines "), and the
City's Environmental Guidelines (City Council Resolution No. 3805,
adopted March 16, 1993);
D. An Addendum to the Initial Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration for EA
No. 773 (approved by the El Segundo Planning Commission on
September 25, 2008) was prepared pursuant to the requirements of
CEQA Guidelines § 15164. Pursuant to CEQA, the Addendum need not
be circulated for public review (CEQA § 15164(c)) however, an addendum
is to be considered by the decision - making body before to making a
decision on the project (CEQA § 15164(d));
E. The Planning and Building Safety Department completed its review and
scheduled a public hearing regarding the application before the Planning
Commission for March 18, 2010;
i..i �.
F. On March 18, 2010, the Commission held a public hearing to receive
public testimony and other evidence regarding the applications including,
without limitation, information provided to the Commission by City staff
and public testimony, and representatives of JF EL Segundo Owner, LLC;
G. Following the public hearing, the Planning Commission adopted
Resolution No. 2672 recommending City Council approval of
Environmental Assessment (EA No. 844), General Plan Amendment No.
09 -02, Specific Plan No. 09 -02, Zone Change No. 09 -02, Zone Text
Amendment No. 09 -04, and Development Agreement No. 09 -03;
H. On April 6, 2010 the City Council held a public hearing and considered the
information provided by City staff, public testimony and the applicant, JF
EL Segundo, LLC;
I. On April 6, 2010 the City Council introduced and waived first reading of
Ordinance No. approving General Plan Amendment No. 09 -02,
Zone Change No. 09 -02, Zone Text Amendment No. 09 -04, and Specific
Plan No. 09 -02; and
J. This Resolution and its findings are made based upon the entire
administrative record including, without limitation, testimony and evidence
presented to the Council at its April 6, 2010 hearing including, without
limitation, the staff report submitted by the Planning and Building Safety
Department.
SECTION 2: Factual Findings and Conclusions. The City Council finds that the
following facts exist:
A. The subject property is located at 199 North Continental Boulevard in the
northeastern portion of the City of El Segundo;
B. The property is comprised of one parcel which is bounded by and fronts
on Continental Boulevard to the east; 101 North Continental Boulevard to
the south and west; and 201 North Continental Boulevard to the north;
C. The surrounding land uses are primarily office related facilities and parking
structures in the Corporate Office (CO) Zone to the north, east and west,
and light manufacturing uses (Raytheon Campus) in the Light
Manufacturing (M -1) Zone to the south;
D. The proposed project is for the development and construction of a six -
story, 152 room, 71,005 square -foot hotel at 199 North Continental
Boulevard;
-2-
E. The subject site is irregular in shape with 100 feet of street frontage on
Continental Boulevard and a total lot area of 1.75 acres;
F. The subject site is paved and used currently as parking area for the office
tower located on the adjacent 8.83 acre site;
G. Vehicular access to the proposed facility would be provided from two
driveway entrances; primary access would be from Continental Boulevard
and secondary access would be from El Segundo Boulevard. Shared
driveway access would be accommodated through a Reciprocal Access
Agreement;
H. Eighty -nine parking spaces and two loading spaces will be provided on
site. Fifty additional parking spaces will be provided off -site at 101 North
Continental Boulevard with a parking covenant;
The proposed General Plan re- designation and rezoning of the Project
Site would change the General Plan land use designation from Corporate
Office to the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan designation
and rezone the area from the Corporate Office (CO) Zone to the 199 North
Continental Boulevard Specific Plan Zone;
J. The re- zoning and General Plan re- designation would increase the
allowed floor area ratio (FAR) of the Project Site for a hotel. The FAR will
be increased from a maximum of 0.80 to 0.92. The 12% increase in
allowable floor area results in an increase of roughly 9,901 square feet of
potential development at the Project Site. The total development that
would be permitted with the proposed General Plan re- designation and re-
zoning is 71,005 square feet (0.92 FAR). The existing FAR of the Project
Site is 0.08. Therefore, the proposed hotel would not exceed the
maximum 0.92 FAR allowed in the proposed General Plan re- designation
and re- zoning.
SECTION 3: Environmental Assessment. The City Council makes the following
environmental findings:
A. Because of the facts identified in Section 2 of this Resolution, the
proposed project was analyzed for its environmental impacts and an
Addendum to the previously adopted Initial Study /Mitigated Negative
Declaration (IS /MND) for Environmental Assessment No. 773 (Aloft Hotel -
EA 773 /CUP 07 -07, formerly 101 Continental Boulevard, now 199 North
Continental Boulevard) was prepared pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §
15164. Under CEQA, an Addendum to an adopted Negative Declaration
or Mitigated Negative Declaration is needed if minor technical changes or
additions to the proposed project occur (CEQA Guidelines §15164). An
addendum is appropriate only if these minor technical changes or
-3- 023
additions do not result in any new significant impacts or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant impacts. The
Addendum need not be circulated for public review (CEQA Guidelines
§15164(c)); however, an addendum must be considered by the decision -
making body before making a decision on the project (CEQA Guidelines
§15164(d)).
B. Before the March 18, 2010 Planning Commission meeting, an Addendum
to the adopted IS /MND was prepared with changes to the traffic and utility
mitigation measures. Four mitigation measures were modified or
eliminated based on changes to the way, in which the mitigation measures
were to be implemented, or finding that the mitigation measures had
already been completed and /or were no longer necessary. Originally,
Mitigation Measure TR -1 required that the applicant contribute its fair
share towards conversion of the westbound through /right -turn lane to a
dedicated right -turn lane along El Segundo Boulevard at Continental
Boulevard. However, since the applicant would be fully responsible for
implementation of this mitigation measure, a fair share funding mechanism
is no longer required. Thus, Mitigation Measure TR -1 was revised to
reflect this change. Originally, Mitigation Measure UTL -7 required that the
applicant work with the City's franchise hauler, Consolidated Disposal, to
coordinate recycling efforts for the development. However, the City's
franchise hauler, Consolidated Disposal, does not have a contract to
provide commercial hauling services. Therefore, Mitigation Measure UTL -
7 has been revised to reflect this change. Additionally, UTL -1 which
required a Sewer Flow Study and UTL -5 which required upgrades to the
sewer infrastructure based on the findings of the Sewer Flow Study, have
been completed and therefore, eliminated. The Addendum makes minor
technical changes and corrections to the Mitigation Monitoring and
Reporting Checklist merely adds new information to the Mitigated
Negative Declaration and no new significant impacts or increase in
impacts are identified. Therefore, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §
15164(c), recirculation of the document is not required.
C. The Addendum to the previously adopted IS /MND demonstrated that the
environmental analysis, impacts, and mitigation requirements identified in
the 2008 IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 remain
substantially unchanged despite the proposed project revisions, and
supports the finding that the proposed project makes minor technical
changes or additions and does not exceed the level of impacts identified in
the previous IS /MND. The mitigation measures listed in the Mitigated
Negative Declaration, with modification to the language in TR -1 and UTL -
7, and the deletion of UTL -1 and UTL -5, are sufficient to reduce all
identified environmental impacts to less than significant levels.
Accordingly, based upon the evidence presented to the City Council, the
City need not prepare an environmental impact report for the project and
It
-4- 4
need only consider the Addendum before making a decision on the project
(CEQA Guidelines § 15164).
SECTION 4: General Plan and Specific Plan. The proposed project conforms with the
City's General Plan and the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan as follows:
A. The General Plan Land Use Designation of the project site is 199 North
Continental Boulevard Specific Plan (NCBSP). This designation is
intended for hotels not to exceed 0.92 floor area ratio (FAR), and general
office, research and development, restaurants and cafes, medical - dental
offices, not to exceed 0.80 floor area ratio (FAR). As conditioned, the
proposed project for the hotel use is compatible with the General Plan.
B. The General Plan contains a number of relevant Goals, Objectives, and
Policies in the Land Use Element. Land Use Element Policy LU4 -1.2
requires that "all commercial facilities shall be built and maintained in
accordance with Health and Safety Code requirements and shall meet
seismic safety regulations and environmental regulations." The
development will be built and maintained in accordance with these
requirements and regulations and the requirements and regulations of the
199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan.
C. The proposed project is consistent with Land Use Element Objective LU4 -
4 to "provide areas where development has the flexibility to mix uses, in
an effort to provide synergistic relationships which have the potential to
maximize economic benefit, reduce traffic impacts, and encourage
pedestrian environments" in that the project will provide a new hotel
immediately adjacent to several large office towers and business uses that
will have access to the hotel within walking distance thereby reducing the
need to use a vehicle.
D. The proposed project is consistent with Land Use Element Policy LU4 -3.6
to "require landscaping, its maintenance, and permanent upkeep in all
new office and mixed -use developments" in that the project will provide
new and improved permanent landscaping both onsite and around the
perimeter including the adjacent 8.83 acre site (101 Continental
Boulevard) with palm lined, lighted grand entrances at Continental
Boulevard and El Segundo Boulevard.
E. The proposed project is consistent with Land Use Element Policy LU5 -2.2
that "all outdoor storage shall be properly screened by masonry walls and
landscaping." Masonry walls will be utilized for the trash enclosure and
equipment area behind the building.
F. The proposed project is consistent with Land Use Element Policy LU7 -1.2
in that "no new development shall be allowed unless adequate public
-5- i ._
facilities are in place or provided for." A new hotel will be built with
significant landscaping and hardscape improvements that will be
supported by adequate public infrastructure, including any improvements
or upgrades needed to serve the project.
G. The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Objective C1-
1 to "provide a roadway system that accommodates the City's existing and
projected land use and circulation needs." A Traffic Study for the project
found that the proposed hotel project would generate a net trip increase of
995 daily trips with 47 inbound trips and 32 outbound trips in the morning
peak hour, and 51 inbound trips and 34 outbound trips in the evening peak
hour. Additional trips generated by the project will be mitigated by the
payment of a traffic mitigation fee. The Study also found that cumulative
future conditions, which would include the hotel project, would create a
significant impact at one of the 12 intersections studied: El Segundo
Boulevard at Continental Boulevard. This impact will be mitigated to a
less that significant level with the conversion through re- striping, of a
shared westbound, through /right lane to a dedicated westbound right -turn
lane for El Segundo Boulevard at Continental Boulevard. Therefore, the
applicant must fund and install the re- striping of the westbound
through /right -turn lane to a dedicated right -turn lane and must fund the
manufacturing and installation of the associated signage, subject to
approval by the Director of Public Works.
H. The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Policy C1 -1.2
to "pursue implementation of all Circulation Element policies such that all
Master Plan roadways are upgraded and maintained at acceptable levels
of service." A Traffic Study for the project found that the proposed hotel
project would generate a net trip increase of 995 daily trips with 47
inbound trips and 32 outbound trips in the morning peak hour, and 51
inbound trips and 34 outbound trips in the evening peak hour Additional
trips generated by the project will be mitigated by the payment of a traffic
mitigation fee. The Study also found that cumulative future conditions,
which would include the hotel project, would create a significant impact at
one of the 12 intersections studied: El Segundo Boulevard at Continental
Boulevard. This impact will be mitigated to a less that significant level with
the conversion through re- striping, of a shared westbound, through /right
lane to a dedicated westbound right -turn lane for El Segundo Boulevard at
Continental Boulevard. Therefore, the applicant must fund and install the
re- striping of the westbound through /right -turn lane to a dedicated right -
turn lane and must fund the manufacturing and installation of the
associated signage, subject to approval by the Director of Public Works.
The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Policy C1 -1.5
to "implement roadway and intersection upgrades to full Circulation
Element standards when needed to improve traffic operating conditions
r.
-6- 0114 t
and to serve development." A Traffic Study for the project found that the
proposed hotel project would generate a net trip increase of 995 daily trips
with 47 inbound trips and 32 outbound trips in the morning peak hour, and
51 inbound trips and 34 outbound trips in the evening peak hour.
Additional trips generated by the project will be mitigated by the payment
of a traffic mitigation fee. The Study also found that cumulative future
conditions, which would include the hotel project, would create a
significant impact at one of the 12 intersections studied: El Segundo
Boulevard at Continental Boulevard. This impact will be mitigated to a
less that significant level with the conversion through re- striping, of a
shared westbound, through /right lane to a dedicated westbound right -turn
lane for El Segundo Boulevard at Continental Boulevard. Therefore, the
applicant must fund and install the re- striping of the westbound
through /right -turn lane to a dedicated right -turn lane and must fund the
manufacturing and installation of the associated signage, subject to
approval by the Director of Public Works.
J. The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Policy C1-
1.14 to "require a full evaluation of potential traffic impacts associated with
proposed new development prior to project approval. Further, require the
implementation of appropriate mitigation measures prior to, or in
conjunction with, project development. Mitigation measures may include
new roadway links on segments that would connect the new development
to the existing roadway system, intersection improvements, and other
measures. Mitigation measures shall be provided by or paid for by the
project developer." A Traffic Study for the project found that the proposed
hotel project would generate a net trip increase of 995 daily trips with 47
inbound trips and 32 outbound trips in the morning peak hour, and 51
inbound trips and 34 outbound trips in the evening peak hour. Additional
trips generated by the project will be mitigated by the payment of a traffic
mitigation fee. The Study also found that cumulative future conditions,
which would include the hotel project, would create a significant impact at
one of the 12 intersections studied: El Segundo Boulevard at Continental
Boulevard. This impact will be mitigated to a less that significant level with
the conversion through re- striping, of a shared westbound, through /right
lane to a dedicated westbound right -turn lane for El Segundo Boulevard at
Continental Boulevard. Therefore, the applicant must fund and install the
re- striping of the westbound through /right -turn lane to a dedicated right -
turn lane and must fund the manufacturing and installation of the
associated signage, subject to approval by the Director of Public Works.
K. The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Policy C1 -3.2
to "ensure that the development review process incorporates
consideration of off - street commercial loading requirements for all new
projects." Two off - street commercial loading spaces will be provided
r
U4 i
-7-
consistent with the ESMC requirements. The loading spaces will be
screened using masonry walls and landscaping.
L. The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Policy C2 -1.3
to "encourage new developments in the City to participate in the
development of the citywide system of pedestrian walkways and require
participation funded by the project developer where appropriate." Full
sidewalk and curb and gutter to City Standards are incorporated into the
design of this project.
M. The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Policy C2 -1.4
to "ensure the installation of sidewalks on all future arterial widening or
new construction projects, to establish a continuous and convenient link
for pedestrians." Full sidewalk and curb and gutter to City standards are
incorporated into the design of this project as required by the Department
of Public Works.
N. The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Policy 3 -1.1 to
"require all new development to mitigate project - related impacts on the
existing and future circulation system such that all Master Plan roadways
and intersections are upgraded and maintained at acceptable levels of
service through implementation of all applicable Circulation Element
policies. Mitigation measures shall be provided by or paid for by the
project developer." A Traffic Study for the project found that the proposed
hotel project would generate a net trip increase of 995 daily trips with 47
inbound trips and 32 outbound trips in the morning peak hour, and 51
inbound trips and 34 outbound trips in the evening peak hour. Additional
trips generated by the project will be mitigated by the payment of a traffic
mitigation fee. The Study also found that cumulative future conditions,
which would include the hotel project, would create a significant impact at
one of the 12 intersections studied: El Segundo Boulevard at Continental
Boulevard. This impact will be mitigated to a less that significant level with
the conversion through re- striping, of a shared westbound, through /right
lane to a dedicated westbound right -turn lane for El Segundo Boulevard at
Continental Boulevard. Therefore, the applicant must fund and install the
re- striping of the westbound through /right -turn lane to a dedicated right -
turn lane and must fund the manufacturing and installation of the
associated signage, subject to approval by the Director of Public Works.
O. The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Policy C3 -1.8
to "require the provision of adequate pedestrian and bicycle access for
new development projects through the development review process." Full
sidewalk and curb and gutter to City standards are incorporated into the
design of this project that will provide adequate pedestrian access.
Adequate bicycle access will be available to the site.
U�.8
-8-
P. The proposed project is consistent with Circulation Element Policy C3 -2.1
to "ensure the provision of sufficient on -site parking in all new
development." The proposed project is required to provide 139 parking
spaces and 141 are proposed.
SECTION 8: Approvals.
A. The City Council adopts the attached Findings of Fact as set forth in
Exhibit "A," which are incorporated into this Resolution by reference.
B. The City Council, in accordance with the requirements of Public
Resources Code § §21081(a) and 21081.6, adopts a Mitigation Monitoring
and Reporting Program (MMRP) as set forth in attached Exhibit "B," which
is incorporated into this Resolution by reference. The City Council adopts
each of the mitigation measures expressly set forth in the MMRP as
conditions of approval of the project. The other project conditions of
approval and compliance with applicable codes, policies, and regulations
will further ensure that the environmental impacts of the proposed project
will not be greater than set forth in the Addendum to the Mitigated
Negative Declaration and these findings.
C. The City Council amends the proposed Land Use Plan ( "Land Use
Designations — Commercial Designations" subsection) of the Land Use
Element of the General Plan to reflect the addition of the 199 North
Continental Boulevard Specific Plan, including a description of the allowed
uses and the maximum land use density allowed, to the Commercial Land
Use Designations subsection. The corresponding changes as set forth in
attached Exhibit "C," which is incorporated into this Resolution by
reference.
D. The City Council amends the proposed Land Use Plan ( "Northeast
Quadrant" subsection) of the Land Use Element of the General Plan to
reflect the change of the Project area which is bounded by and fronts on
North Continental Boulevard to the east; 101 North Continental Boulevard
to the south and west, and 201 North Continental Boulevard to the north
from Corporate Office to 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan.

Council in all respects and are fully and completely supported by substantial evidence in
the record as a whole.
SECTION 10: Limitations. The City Council's analysis and evaluation of the project is
based on the best information currently available. It is inevitable that in evaluating a
project that absolute and perfect knowledge of all possible aspects of the project will not
exist. One of the major limitations on analysis of the project is the City Council's lack of
knowledge of future events. In all instances, best efforts have been made to form
accurate assumptions. Somewhat related to this are the limitations on the City's ability
to solve what are in effect regional, state, and national problems and issues. The City
must work within the political framework within which it exists and with the limitations
inherent in that framework.
SECTION 11: Summaries of Information. All summaries of information in the findings,
which precede this section, are based on the substantial evidence in the record. The
absence of any particular fact from any such summary is not an indication that a
particular finding is not based in part on that fact.

CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO.
Exhibit A
On September 25, 2008, the City of El Segundo Planning Commission adopted Resolution No.
2645, an Initial Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS /MND) for Environmental Assessment
No. 773 1CUP 07 -07 (formerly 101 Continental Boulevard, now 199 North Continental
Boulevard). The proposal consisted of the construction of a six -story, 61,104 square -foot hotel
on a 1.75 -acre site. The project was approved for a total of 167 rooms at a maximum floor area
ratio (FAR) of 0.80.
On December 1, 2009, the applicant filed an application for Environmental Assessment No. 844,
General Plan Amendment No. 09 -02, Zone Change No. 09 -02, Zone Text Amendment No. 09-
04, Specific Plan No. 09 -02, and Development Agreement No. 09 -03, an application for a new
project which modified the original approval. The modifications primarily involved a change in
hotel brand, an increase in the size of the hotel by 9,900 square feet to allow for increased room
sizes and greater hotel amenities, a reduction in the total number of rooms from 167 to 152
rooms. As a result of the project modifications, an Addendum to the previously adopted IS /MND
was prepared, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA Guidelines §
15164).
On March 18, 2010, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 2672 and recommended
that the City Council approve Environmental Assessment No. 844, General Plan Amendment
No.09 -02, Zone Change No. 09 -02, Zone Text Amendment No. 09 -04, Specific Plan No. 09 -02,
and Development Agreement No. 09 -03 with conditions.
After receiving, reviewing, and considering all the information in the administrative record for
Environmental Assessment (EA No. 844), General Plan Amendment No.09 -02, Zone Change
No. 09 -02, Zone Text Amendment No. 09 -04, Specific Plan No. 09 -02, and Development
Agreement No. 09 -03, including, without limitation, the factual information and conclusions set
forth in this Resolution and its attachment, the City Council finds, determines, and declares for
the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan Zone Change and General Plan Land Use
Map Designation Amendment Project as follows:
I. FINDINGS REQUIRED BY CEQA.
An Addendum has been prepared under the authority of Public Resources Code §
21166 and of 14 Ca. Code Regs. Section 15000 et seq. (the State CEQA Guidelines) at Section
15164(b) which allows a lead agency to prepare an addendum to a previously adopted negative
declaration if only minor technical changes or additions are necessary or none of the conditions
described in Section 15162 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR or negative
declaration have occurred. Section 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines states that no
subsequent EIR or negative declaration shall be prepared unless the lead agency determines
on the basis of substantial evidence in light of the whole record one or more of the following:
"(1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of
the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant
environmental effects or a substantial increase n the severity of previously identified significant
effects;
(2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project
is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due
to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the
severity of previously identified significant effects; or
(3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have
been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified
as complete or the negative declaration was adopted, shows any of the following:
(A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous
EIR or negative declaration;
(B) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown
in the previous EIR;
(C) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact
be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the
project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
(D) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those
analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the
environment, but project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative."
FINDINGS REGARDING THE POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS OF THE PROJECT.
Based on the impact comparison provided in the Addendum for Environmental Assessment No.
844, the revised project as described herein would not result in new significant impacts or a
substantial increase in the severity of impacts under CEQA. Thus, in comparison to the
analysis provided in the 2008 /S/MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773, the revised
project would not: a) result in increased impacts related to degradation of the environment or
impacts to biological or cultural resources; b) result in increased cumulative impacts; or c) result
in increased substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly.
A. Impacts Found to be Not Potentially Significant by the Initial Study
The Initial Study identified the following environmental effects as not potentially
significant. Accordingly, the City Council finds that the Initial Study, the Mitigated
Negative Declaration and Addendum, and the record of proceedings for the 199
North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan Zone Change and General Plan Land
Use Map Designation Amendment Project do not identify or contain substantial
evidence identifying significant environmental effects of the hotel project with
respect to the areas listed below.
1. Biology
2. Agricultural
2
B. Impacts Identified as Less Than Significant in the Initial Study (with no
mitigation required).
The Initial Study identified the following environmental effects as less than
significant. Accordingly, the City Council finds that the Initial Study, the Mitigated
Negative Declaration and Addendum, and the record of proceedings for the 199 North
Continental Boulevard Specific Plan Zone Change and General Plan Land Use Map
Designation Amendment Project do not identify or contain substantial evidence
identifying significant environmental effects of the hotel project with respect to the areas
listed below.
1.
Geology and Soils.
2.
Land Use and Planning.
3.
Mineral Resources
4.
Population and Housing.
5.
Public Services
6. Recreation
C. Impacts Identified as Potentially Significant But Which Can Be Reduced to
Less Than Significant Levels with Mitigation Measures.
The City Council finds that the following environmental effects were identified as Less
Than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated in the Mitigated Negative Declaration and
Addendum, and implementation of the identified mitigation measures would avoid of
lessen the potential environmental effects listed below to a level of significance.
1. Aesthetics.
a) Facts /Eff ects.
(1) Construction Impacts. During construction activities views
across the project site from surrounding areas would be disrupted.
Graded surfaces, construction debris, construction equipment,
and truck traffic would be visible. Additionally, soil would be
stockpiled and equipment for grading activities would be staged at
various locations throughout the site. Construction- related
activities would be visible from the surrounding office uses and
from motorists traveling along El Segundo Boulevard and
Continental Boulevard. Although these visual impacts are
temporary in nature, they can be considered significant unless
mitigated. With implementation of mitigation measures pertaining
to the use of appropriate screening (i.e., temporary fencing with
opaque material) at equipment staging areas, construction
impacts would be reduced. Mitigation measures involving staging
and lighting are also recommended to further minimize potential
construction- related visual impacts. The project would be required
to submit grading plans for review by the City's Planning and
Building Safety Department. All grading and earthwork activities
would be conducted in accordance with an approved construction
3
grading plan and grading permit issued by the City's Planning and
Building Safety Department, further reducing impacts to a less
than significant level. Therefore, with mitigation, impacts from
construction - related activities would not substantially degrade the
existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings.
Construction - related impacts would cease on project completion
and therefore are considered to be short-term. Short-term
impacts would be minimized through implementation of mitigation
measures and compliance with the City's requirements.
(2) Light or Glare. There are two primary sources of light: light
emanating from building interiors that pass through windows and
light from exterior sources (i.e., street lighting, parking lot lighting,
building illumination, security lighting, and landscape lighting).
Depending upon the location of the light source and its proximity
to adjacent light sensitive uses, light introduction can be a
nuisance, affecting adjacent areas and diminishing the view of the
clear night sky. Light spillage is typically defined as unwanted
illumination from light fixtures on adjacent properties. Perceived
glare is the unwanted and potentially objectionable result from
looking directly into a light source of a luminaire. Sensitive uses
(i.e., schools and residential uses) could be impacted by the light
and glare from the proposed project; however, no sensitive uses
are located directly adjacent to the project site.
Currently, the project site produces no light and glare as it
consists of a surface parking area. Other light sources in the area
consist of the Pacific Corporate Towers and parking area to the
west, the existing Xerox Tower to the south, and the other
commercial /industrial uses to the north and east. In addition,
nighttime street lighting is provided on Continental Boulevard and
East El Segundo Boulevard.
Implementation of the proposed project would further develop the
10.58 -acre project site from a surface parking lot to hotel uses.
New light sources would result from the building exterior, interior
building lighting, security lighting, signage, and parking lot lighting.
The project site and on -site structures would be lit through the
evening and early morning hours. Review and approval of the
required lighting plan by the City would ensure that spillover
lighting would be minimized so as not to create light pollution
disturbances to adjacent uses. Compliance with City lighting
standards would further minimize potential spillover impacts to
surrounding uses. Implementation of the proposed project would
not create a source of substantial light or glare.
Additionally, the City of El Segundo General Plan EIR includes
mitigation measures that require exterior lighting to be designed
and located to avoid intrusive effects on sensitive receptors. The
mitigation requires low intensity street lighting and other exterior
lighting be used throughout new developments and lighting shall
be focused and directional. With implementation of the General
Plan EIR requirements and the following mitigation measures,
0 i 5
4
light and glare impacts from the proposed project would be less
than significant.
b) Mitigations:
(1) Construction equipment staging areas must use
appropriate screening (i.e., temporary fencing with opaque
material) to buffer views of construction equipment and material,
when feasible. Staging locations must be identified on Final
Development Plans and Grading Plans.
(2) All construction - related lighting must include shielding in
order to direct lighting down and away from adjacent residential
areas and consist of the minimal wattage necessary to provide
safety at the construction site. A construction safety lighting plan
must be submitted to the City for review concurrent with Grading
Permit application.
(3) All exterior lighting and advertising (including signage)
must be directed onto the specific location intended for
illumination (e.g., parking lots, driveways, and walkways) and
shielded away from adjacent properties and public rights -of -way to
minimize light spillover onto adjacent areas.
(4) Before issuance of the Site Development Permit, the
applicant must submit a lighting plan to the City of El Segundo
Police Department for review and approval. The plan must specify
the lighting type and placement to ensure that the effects of
security and other outdoor lighting are minimized on adjacent uses
and do not create spillover effects. The plan must specifically
incorporate the following design features:
o The project must incorporate project design features to
shield light and /or glare from vehicles entering or exiting
parking lots and from the north face of the proposed
structure by providing barriers so that light from vehicle
headlights would not illuminate off -site sensitive uses.
o The project must incorporate project design features to
provide landscaping, physical barriers, screening, or other
buffers to minimize project - generated illumination from
entering off -site areas and to prevent glare or interference
with vehicular traffic, in accordance with the El Segundo
Municipal Code.
(5) The proposed structure must be designed to maximize the
use of textured or other non - reflective exterior surfaces and non -
reflective glass.
c) Finding:
(1) Changes or alterations have been required in or incorporated into the
project and the project has been conditioned to avoid or substantially
lessen the potential environmental effect as identified in the MND.

2. Air Quality.
a) Facts /Effects.
(i) Air Quality Standards
Short -Term Construction Activities
Future construction of the project site would generate short-term air
quality impacts during grading and construction operations. The short -
term air quality analysis considers the following temporary impacts from
the project:
• Clearing, grading, excavating, and using heavy equipment or
trucks creating large quantities of fugitive dust, and thus PM,o;
• Heavy equipment required for grading and construction generates
and emits diesel exhaust emissions; and
• The vehicles of commuting construction workers and trucks
hauling equipment would generate and emit exhaust emissions.
Exhaust emission factors for typical diesel - powered heavy equipment,
as well as the number of pieces of equipment utilized, are based on the
URBEMIS 2007 program defaults and data provided by the project
applicant. Variables factored into estimating the total construction
emissions include the level of activity, length of construction period,
number of pieces and types of equipment in use, site characteristics,
weather conditions, number of construction personnel, and the amount
of materials to be transported on -site or off -site. A listing of mobile and
stationary construction equipment is included in the air quality
modeling; refer to Appendix A, Air Quality Analysis.
Fugitive Dust Emissions
Fugitive dust (PM,o and PM2.5) from grading and construction is
expected to be short-term and would cease following completion of the
proposed project improvements. Most of this material is composed of
inert silicates, which are less harmful to health than the complex
organic particulates released from combustion sources. These
particles are either directly emitted or are formed in the atmosphere
from the combustion of gases such as NOX and SOX combining with
ammonia. The greatest amount of fugitive dust generated is expected
to occur during site excavation and grading. Dust generated by such
activities usually becomes more of a local nuisance than a serious
health problem. Of particular concern is the amount of PM,o generated
as a part of fugitive dust emissions.
During construction, the property owner, developer, and contractors are
required to comply with regional rules, which assist in reducing short-
term construction - related air pollutant emissions. Rule 403 requires
that fugitive dust be controlled with the best available control measures
in order to reduce dust so that it does not remain visible in the
atmosphere beyond the property line of the proposed project. Rule 403
also requires that all active operations must utilize the applicable best
available control measures included in Table 1 of Rule 403. Table 1 of
Rule 403 is intended to minimize fugitive dust emissions from each
fugitive dust source type within the active operation. The applicable
control measures target various construction operations such as
backfilling, clearing and grubbing, crushing, cut and fill, demolition,
earth- moving activities, bulk material import and export, construction
staging, stockpiles /bulk material handling, trenching, and loading. The
applicable measures from Table 1 of Rule 403 suggest methods such
as covering stockpiles with tarps, and the application of water to
stabilize materials.
The URBEMIS 2007 computer model calculates PM10 and PM2.5
fugitive dust as part of the site grading emissions. Maximum
particulate matter emissions would occur during the initial month of
construction, when grading activities would occur. The maximum
mitigated particulate matter concentration would be 15.55 pounds per
day (Ibs /day) for PM10 and 7.16 Ibs /day for PM2.5, which are below
SCAQMD thresholds of 150 Ibs /day and 55 Ibs /day, respectively.
Construction Equipment and Worker Vehicle Exhaust
Exhaust emissions from construction activities include emissions
associated with the transport of machinery and supplies to and from the
project site, emissions produced on -site as the equipment is used, and
emissions from trucks transporting materials to /from the site.
Construction equipment and worker vehicle exhaust emissions would
be below the established SCAQMD thresholds. Therefore, air quality
impacts from equipment and vehicle exhaust emission would be less
than significant.
ROG Emissions
In addition to gaseous and particulate emissions, the application of
asphalt and surface coatings creates ROG emissions, which are 03
precursors. In accordance with the methodology prescribed by the
SCAQMD, the ROG emissions associated with paving have been
quantified with the URBEMIS 2007 model. In addition, based upon the
size of the building, architectural coatings were also quantified within
the URBEMIS 2007 model.
The greatest ROG emissions would be generated during the
application of architectural coatings on the building. As required by
law, all architectural coatings for the proposed project structures would
comply with SCAQMD Regulation XI, Rule 1113 — Architectural
Coating.' Rule 1113 provides specifications on painting practices as
well as regulates the ROG content of paint. In addition to Rule 1113,
the SCAQMD provides additional mitigation measures to reduce ROG
emissions. Mitigation includes the use of high - pressure -low- volume

2004.
7
(HPLV) paint applicators with a minimum transfer efficiency of at least
50 percent, using pre - painted construction materials, and constructing
buildings with materials that do not require painting. Based on the
modeling, the proposed project would not result in an exceedance of
ROG emissions, and therefore would be considered less than
significant.
Asbestos
Pursuant to guidance issued by the Governor's Office of Planning and
Research, State Clearinghouse, lead agencies are encouraged to
analyze potential impacts related to naturally occurring asbestos
(NOA). Asbestos is a term used for several types of naturally occurring
fibrous minerals that are a human health hazard when airborne. The
most common type of asbestos is chrysotile, but other types such as
tremolite and actinolite are also found in California. Asbestos is
classified as a known human carcinogen by State, Federal, and
international agencies, and was identified as a toxic air contaminant by
the CARB in 1986.
Asbestos can be released from serpentinite and ultramafic rocks
when the rock is broken or crushed. At the point of release, the
asbestos fibers may become airborne, causing air quality and human
health hazards. These rocks have been commonly used for unpaved
gravel roads, landscaping, fill projects, and other improvement
projects in some localities. Asbestos may be released to the
atmosphere due to vehicular traffic on unpaved roads, during grading
for development projects, and at quarry operations. All of these
activities may have the effect of releasing potentially harmful asbestos
into the air. Natural weathering and erosion processes can act on
asbestos bearing rock and make it easier for asbestos fibers to
become airborne if such rock is disturbed.
Serpentinite and /or ultramafic rock are known to be present in 44 of
California's 58 counties. These rocks are particularly abundant in the
counties of the Sierra Nevada foothills, the Klamath Mountains, and
Coast Ranges. According to the Department of Conservation Division
of Mines and Geology, A General Location Guide for Ultramafic Rocks
in California — Areas More Likely to Contain Naturally Occurring
Asbestos Report (dated August 2000), the proposed project is not
located in an area where NOA is likely to be present. Therefore,
impacts would be considered less than significant.
LonQ -Term (Operational) Emissions
Long -term air quality impacts would consist of mobile source
emissions generated from project - related traffic and from stationary
source emissions. For purposes of this air quality emissions analysis,
operation - related air quality impacts were analyzed for the project
buildout conditions.
tj
Mobile Source Emissions
Mobile sources are emissions from motor vehicles, including tailpipe
and evaporative emissions. Depending upon the pollutant being
discussed, the potential air quality impact may be of either regional or
local concern. For example, ROGs, NOx, SO2, PM,o, and PM2.5 are
all pollutants of regional concern. However, CO tends to be a
localized pollutant, dispersing rapidly at the source.
The Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was prepared by Kimley -Horn and
Associates, Inc. (dated April 2008). Project - generated vehicle
emissions have been estimated using the URBEMIS 2007 computer
model. This model predicts ROGs, CO, NOx, SO2, PM,o, and PM2.5
emissions from motor vehicle traffic associated with new or modified
land uses. Project trip generation rates were based on the TIA.
Mobile emissions generated by vehicle traffic associated with the
proposed project would not exceed the established SCAQMD
thresholds, and would result in a less than significant impact.
Mitigation measures 1 through 5 will mitigate the above impacts to a
less than significant level.
(ii) Objectionable Odors
According to the SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook, land uses
associated with odor complaints typically include agricultural uses,
wastewater treatment plants, food processing plants, chemical plants,
composting, refineries, landfills, dairies, and fiberglass molding. The
proposed project does not include any uses identified by the
SCAQMD as being associated with odors.
Construction activity associated with the project may generate
detectable odors from heavy -duty equipment exhaust. Construction -
related odors would be short -term in nature and cease upon project
completion. The other potential source of odors would be new trash
receptacles for the proposed project. However, all new trash
receptacles would be required to have lids, which would limit odors
emanating from the receptacles; refer to Mitigation Measure AQ -6.
Any impacts to existing adjacent land uses would be short -term, as
previously noted, and are considered less than significant given the
project size.
Mitigation Measure 6 will mitigate the above impacts to a less than
significant level.
b) Mitigations:
(1) During clearing, grading, earth moving, or excavation
operations, excessive fugitive dust emissions must be controlled
by regular water or other dust preventive measures using the
following procedures, as specified in the SCAQMD Rule 403.
(a) Limit on -site vehicle speed to 15 miles per hour.
u4J
(b) Water material excavated or graded sufficiently to
prevent excessive amounts of dust. Water at least twice
daily with complete coverage, preferably in the late
morning and after work is done for the day.
(c) Water or securely cover material transported on-
site or off -site sufficiently to prevent generating excessive
amounts of dust.
(d) Minimize area disturbed by clearing, grading, earth
moving, or excavation operations so as to prevent
generating excessive amounts of dust.
(e) Indicate these control techniques in project
specifications. Compliance with the measure will be
subject to periodic site inspections by the City.
(f) Prevent visible dust from the project from
emanating beyond the property line, to the maximum
extent feasible.
(g) Apply nontoxic chemical soil stabilizers according
to manufacturer's specifications to all inactive construction
areas (previously graded areas inactive for ten days or
more).
(h) Trucks transporting soil, sand, cut or fill materials,
and /or construction debris to or from the site must be
tarped from the point of origin.
(2) Project grading plans must show the duration of
construction. Ozone precursor emissions from construction
equipment vehicles must be controlled by maintaining equipment
engines in good condition and in proper tune per manufacturer's
specifications, to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Compliance
with this measure must be subject to periodic inspections of
construction equipment vehicles by the City and included in
construction bid documents.
(3) All trucks that are to haul excavated or graded material on-
site must comply with California Vehicle Code Section 23114, with
special attention to Sections 23114(b)(F), (e)(2) and (e)(4) as
amended, regarding the prevention of such material spilling onto
public streets and roads. This provision must be provided in
construction bid documents.
(4) The following measures must be implemented to reduce
ROG emissions resulting from application of architectural
coatings:
+. , :i1
10
(a) Contractors must use high - pressure -low- volume
(HPLV) paint applicators with a minimum transfer efficiency
of at least 50 percent.
(b) Use required coatings and solvents with a VOC
content lower than required under Rule 1113.
(c) Construct/build with materials that do not require
painting.
(d) Use pre - painted construction materials.
(5) Construction hours, allowable work days, and phone
numbers of the job superintendent must be clearly posted at all
construction entrances to allow for surrounding property owners
and residents to contact the job superintendent. If the job
superintendent receives a complaint, appropriate corrective
actions must be implemented immediately and a report taken to
the reporting party.
(6) Trash receptacles within the project site must have lids that
enable convenient collection and loading and must be emptied on
a regular basis, in compliance with City of El Segundo regulations
for the collection of solid waste.
c) Finding
(1) Changes or alterations have been required in or
incorporated into the project and the project has been conditioned
to avoid or substantially lessen the potential environmental effect
as identified in the MND.
3. Cultural Resources.
a) Facts /Effects.
(1) Archeological Resources. According to the City of El
Segundo General Plan EIR, due to the City's proximity to historic
natural water courses and freshwater springs, there is potential for
significant archeological artifacts to exist. As the project site has
been previously graded and is currently paved, the potential to
discover archaeological resources is low. However, the potential
exists for unknown archaeological resources to be discovered
during earth movement. Therefore, implementation of mitigation
measures would reduce potential impacts to unknown
archaeological resources to less than significant.
(2) Paleontological Resources. According to the City of El
Segundo General Plan EIR, the potential exists for paleontological
resources to be present on -site due to the significant fossiliferous
formation underlying the City. With implementation of mitigation,
potential impacts to paleontological resources would be reduced
to less than significant.
11
(3) Human Remains. The project site is developed with
surface parking. Due to the level of past disturbance, it is not
anticipated that human remains exist within the project site. In the
event human remains are encountered during earth removal or
disturbance activities, all activities would cease immediately and a
qualified archaeologist and Native American monitor would be
immediately contacted. The Coroner would be contacted
pursuant to Sections 5097.98 and 5097.99 of the Public
Resources Code relative to Native American remains. Should the
Coroner determine the human remains to be Native American, the
Native American Heritage Commission would be contacted
pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. Thus, a
less than significant impact would occur in this regard.
b) Mitigations:
(1) In the event that archaeological resources are unearthed
during project subsurface activities, all earth- disturbing work within
a 100 -meter radius must be temporarily suspended or redirected
until an archeologist has been provided the opportunity to assess
the significance of the find and implement appropriate measures
to protect or scientifically remove the find. Construction personnel
must be informed that unauthorized collection of cultural
resources is prohibited. If the resource is determined to be
significant, the archaeologist, as appropriate, must prepare a
research design for recovery of the resources in consultation with
the State Office of Historic Preservation that satisfied the
requirements of §21083.2 of CEQA. The archaeologist must
complete a report of excavations and findings, and must submit
the report for peer review by three County- certified archaeologists
or paleontologists, as appropriate. Upon approval of the report,
the County must submit the report to the San Bernardino
Archeological Information Center and keep the report on file at the
County of San Bernardino. After the find has been appropriately
mitigated, work in the area may resume.
(2) A certified paleontologist must be present during initial
grading and all soil disturbances on the project site in order to
monitor any significant paleontological findings. In the event that
paleontological resources are unearthed during project subsurface
activities, all earth- disturbing work within a 100 -meter radius must
be temporarily suspended or redirected until a paleontologist has
been provided the opportunity to assess the significance of the
find and implement appropriate measures to protect or
scientifically remove the find. Construction personnel must be
informed that unauthorized collection of cultural resources is
prohibited. If the resource is determined to be significant, the
paleontologist, as appropriate, must prepare a research design for
recovery of the resources in consultation with the State Office of
Historic Preservation that satisfied the requirements of §21083.2
of CEQA. The paleontologist must complete a report of
excavations and findings, and must submit the report for peer
review by three County - certified archaeologists or paleontologists,
V4v
12
as appropriate. Upon approval of the report, the County must
submit the report to the San Bernardino Archeological Information
Center and keep the report on file at the County of San
Bernardino. After the find has been appropriately mitigated, work
in the area may resume.
(3) If human remains are unearthed, California Health and
Safety Code Section 7050.5 requires that no further disturbance
must occur until the County coroner has made the necessary
findings as to origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources
Code Section 5097.98. If the remains are determined to be of
Native American descent, the coroner has 24 hours to notify the
Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC). The NAHC will
then contact the most likely descendant of the deceased Native
American, who will then serve as consultant on how to proceed
with the remains.
(c) Finding:
(1) Changes or alterations have been required in or
incorporated into the project and the project has been conditioned
to avoid or substantially lessen the potential environmental effect
as identified in the MND.
4. Hazards and Hazardous Materials.
a) Facts /Effects.
(1) Release of Hazardous Materials. A wide variety of
products, chemical and purified chemical compounds, and
elements that are considered hazardous or toxic are routinely
used in households, commercial businesses, and industrial
operations and processes. These include cleaning and pool -
related chlorine products, chemical fertilizers, herbicides and
pesticides, stored fuels and waste oil, and chemical solvents and
lubricants. The project proposes to construct and operate a hotel.
This land use may include the use and disposal of typical cleaning
products along with limited use of pesticide and herbicides for
landscape maintenance and pool - related products. Trucks
accessing the businesses on -site would contain oil and gasoline to
power their engines, which could have the potential to result in
minor releases of such substances through drips or leaks from
truck loading areas. Major hazardous materials are not typically
associated with the proposed uses and would not create unusually
high quantities of hazardous waste.
b) Mitigations:
(1) The applicant and construction contractor must comply
with existing hazardous materials regulations, which are codified
in Titles 8, 22, and 26 of the California Code of Regulations, and
their enabling legislations set forth in Chapter 6.95 of the
California Health and Safety Code. In addition, the applicant and
13
construction contractor must comply with applicable federal, state,
and local laws and regulations pertaining to the transport, use,
and disposal of hazardous waste, including but not limited to, Title
49 of the Code of Federal Regulations and as implemented by
Title 13 of the CCR.
(c) Finding:
(1) Changes or alterations have been required in or
incorporated into the project and the project has been conditioned
to avoid or substantially lessen the potential environmental effect
as identified in the MND.
5. Hydrology and Water Quality.
a) Facts /Eff ects
(1) Operational Impacts /Short -Term: Short -term water quality
impacts could occur during the construction phase of the project.
As the site is currently developed with surface parking, the
existing on -site uses would be removed in preparation of grading
and construction for the proposed project. This could expose
loose soil to potential wind and water erosion. If not controlled,
the transport of these materials to local waterways would
temporarily increase suspended sediment concentrations and
release pollutants attached to sediment particles into local
waterways. Since the project site is greater than one acre in size,
coverage under the Construction Activities General Permit would
be required. This NPDES Permit requires the preparation of a
SWPPP before construction of the proposed project. The SWPPP
would identify sources of sediments and pollutants that would
affect storm water quality, designate use of appropriate BMPs at
the project site, and implement storm water pollution prevention
measures that would reduce water pollution associated with
construction activities. There are many BMPs available for
achieving the best possible water quality. Common BMPs include
structural controls, as well as non - structural controls. Site - specific
BMPs would not be established until the proposed project is
reviewed by the City of El Segundo Public Works Department.
Increased surface water runoff and storm drainage discharge
associated with construction activities would be considered a less
than significant impact with implementation of the required
mitigation measures.
(2) Operational Impacts /Long -Term: Anticipated pollutants
associated with commercial /industrial developments include
trash /debris and oil /grease. Potential pollutants include heavy
metals, nutrients, pesticides, organic compounds (solvents),
sediments, and oxygen demanding substances. Anticipated
pollutants from parking areas include heavy metals, organic
compounds (petroleum hydrocarbons), trash /debris and
oil /grease. Potential pollutants from parking areas include
nutrients, pesticides, sediments, and oxygen demanding
14 0 4 `'
substances. Anticipated pollutants from the proposed cafe and
bar area include bacteria/viruses, trash /debris, oxygen demanding
substances, and oil /grease. However, due to the limited amount
of landscaping and the use of efficient irrigation methods, potential
pollutants associated with landscaped areas (pesticides, nutrients,
sediments, and oxygen demanding substances) are not
considered to be of significant concern. In addition, due to the
proposed use of the site, solvents are not anticipated to be
present in storm water runoff from the site. Several of the
pollutants anticipated from the project site are also listed as
impairments to the project receiving waters on the 303(d) List.
Currently, impervious surface covers approximately 100 percent of
the site. Implementation of the proposed project would result in
impervious surfaces on the project site to accommodate the hotel,
parking areas, paths, and other hardscape features. The
proposed project would include landscaping throughout the site;
however, the amount of landscaping would be considered
minimal. Thus, there would be a minor decrease in impervious
surface area.
A WQMP would be required to be prepared before the City issues
grading permits. The WQMP would identify measures so the
project would meet, at minimum, the measures specified in the
NPDES Permit, SWPPP, the assignment of long -term
maintenance responsibilities (specifying the developer, parcel
owner, maintenance association, lessee, etc.), and the
locations(s) of all structural BMPs. The WQMP would identify
pollutant sources associated with the addition of business
operations that may affect the quality of discharges of stormwater
from the site.
Compliance with the aforementioned standards and preparation
and implementation of a WQMP would reduce potential impacts to
a less than significant impact in this regard.
b) Mitigation
(1) Before the City issues grading permits, the applicant must
prepare, obtain approval from the City's Public Works Department
and the Planning and Building Safety Department, and implement
a Water Quality Management Plan.
c) Finding
(1) Changes or alterations have been required in or incorporated
into the project and the project has been conditioned to avoid or
substantially lessen the potential environmental effect as identified
in the MND.

6. Noise
a) Facts /Effects.
(1) Construction Noise. Construction - related noise impacts would
be significant if, as indicated in ESMC § 7 -2 -10, construction
activity occurs between the hours of 6:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M.
Monday through Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a federal
holiday. In addition, noise levels generated during construction
are not allowed to exceed 65 dBA at the property line of any
residential receptors. Although the City's 65 dBA standard is only
identified in the ESMC for residential properties, this noise
standard is also extended to other noise - sensitive receptors (e.g.,
schools, hotels, churches) in the project area in recognition of the
sensitivity of these uses to increased noise levels and to provide a
conservative analysis. During project construction, five phases of
basic types of activities would be expected to occur and generate
noise over the duration of the construction phase of the project.
The activities would include demolition, mass grading, fine
grading, trenching, paving, and building or the physical
construction and finishing of the proposed hotel.
Currently, land uses immediately surrounding the project site
include general office uses, light manufacturing, hotel, and parking
uses. Noise - sensitive receptors such as residential uses are
located further away (roughly 1/2 mile) and west of the site across
Sepulveda Boulevard. Hotel uses are located within 1/a mile of the
project site, however none are directly adjacent to the project site.
Due to distance and the presence of existing intervening
structures between the project site and the off -site sensitive
receptors, typical construction noise levels associated with the
Project would not exceed the 65 dBA standard at any of the off -
site sensitive receptors. As such, construction - related noise
impacts associated with the Project would be less than significant.
To ensure that construction activities associated with the Project
would comply with the hours indicated in the ESMC, mitigation
measures 1 through 3 below are included.
(2) Operational Noise. Upon completion and operation of the
Project, on -site operational noise would be generated by heating,
ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment for the new
office uses. However, due to the distance of the proposed
structure at the project site from the surrounding off -site uses and
its location between existing on -site structures, it is not anticipated
that the noise generated by the rooftop HVAC equipment would
result in any adverse noise impacts on the surrounding off -site
uses. Nonetheless, in order to ensure that the on -site operational
noise associated with any new rooftop HVAC equipment at the
project site would not adversely affect the surrounding off -site
uses. Mitigation measures 1 through 3 below would be
implemented to ensure that the new HVAC equipment for the
Project would be equipped with shielding design measures.
16
(2) Ground -borne Vibration. ESMC § 7 -2 -9 prohibits any ground
vibration that is perceptible to any reasonable person of normal
sensitivity at any point on any affected property. However, ESMC
§ 7 -2 -9 exempts construction - related vibration from the above
provision as long as the vibration created does not endanger the
public health, welfare, and safety. As the City does not identify a
numerical significance threshold to assess vibration impacts to
buildings during construction, the Federal Transit Administration
(FTA) and the California Department of Transportation's (Caltrans)
adopted vibration standards for buildings are used to evaluate
potential impacts related to project construction. These thresholds
adopted by the FTA include 80 VdB at residences and buildings
where people normally sleep (e.g., nearby residences) and 83
VdB at institutional buildings, which includes schools and
churches. None of the vibration level experienced by the nearest
off -site sensitive receptors to the project site would not exceed the
FTA's 80 VdB threshold for residential uses or places where
people may sleep. Thus, these impacts would be less than
significant. In order to ensure impacts will be less than significant
mitigation measures 1 through 3 below are included.
b) Mitigation:
(1) Before the City issues grading permits, the construction
contractor must demonstrate, to the Planning and Building Safety
Director the following:
(a) Construction contracts must specify that all
construction equipment, fixed or mobile, be equipped with
properly operating and maintained mufflers and other State
required noise attenuation devices.
(b) Construction noise reduction methods such as
shutting off idling equipment, maximizing the distance
between construction equipment staging areas and
occupied residential areas, and use of electric air
compressors and similar power tools, rather than diesel
equipment, must be used where feasible.
(c) During construction, stationary construction
equipment must be placed such that emitted noise is
directed away from sensitive noise receptors.
(d) All construction entrances must clearly post
construction hours, allowable workdays, and the phone
number of the job superintendent. This will allow
surrounding owners to contact the job superintendent with
concerns. If the developer receives a noise - related
complaint, appropriate corrective actions must be
implemented and a report taken indicating the action with a
copy of the report provided to the reporting party upon
request.
048
fir/
F
(2) Per the El Segundo Municipal Code, construction cannot
occur between the hours of 6:00 PM and 7:00 AM Monday
through Saturday or at any time on Sunday or a Federal holiday.
(3) If pile driving occurs within 250 feet of commercial
receptors, alternative construction methods such as pre - drilling,
drilled piles, Giken silent piling, pile cushioning, or any non - impact
drivers must be implemented to significantly reduce vibration
levels generated by construction activities.
c) Finding:
(1) Changes or alterations have been required in or
incorporated into the project and the project has been conditioned
to avoid or substantially lessen the potential environmental effect
as identified in the MND.
Transportation/ Traffic
(a) Facts /Effects
(1) Traffic Analysis. To assess the Project's traffic - related impact
on area roadways, an analysis of existing conditions was
conducted on the streets and highways serving the project area.
The following twelve study intersections were selected for analysis
in order to determine potential project - related impacts:
I. Sepulveda Boulevard /Imperial Highway
II. Sepulveda Boulevard /Maple Avenue
III. Sepulveda Boulevard /Mariposa Avenue
IV. Sepulveda Boulevard /Grand Avenue
V. Sepulveda Boulevard/El Segundo Boulevard
VI. Sepulveda Boulevard /Hughes Way
VII. Sepulveda Boulevard /Rosecrans Avenue
VIII. El Segundo Boulevard /Continental Boulevard
IX. El Segundo Boulevard /Nash Street
X. El Segundo Boulevard /Douglas Street
XI. El Segundo Boulevard /Aviation Boulevard
XII. Continental Boulevard /Grand Avenue
Peak hour operating conditions at signalized intersections were
evaluated using the Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU)
methodology, in accordance with the City of El Segundo and LA
County Congestion Management Program (CMP) requirements.
The ICU methodology provides a comparison of the theoretical
hourly vehicular capacity of an intersection to the number of
vehicles actually passing through that intersection during a given
hour. The ICU calculation returns a volume -to- capacity (WC) ratio
that translates into a corresponding Level of Service (LOS)
measure, ranging from LOS "A," representing uncongested free -
flowing conditions, to LOS "F," representing over - capacity
18
iJ It 01
conditions. Study intersections under Caltrans jurisdiction are also
analyzed per Caltrans requirements using the Highway Capacity
Manual (HCM) methodology. Sepulveda Boulevard is a Caltrans
facility; therefore all intersections along Sepulveda Boulevard
were analyzed using the HCM methodology.
The City's Level of Service standard for intersection operation is
Level of Service "D" as established in the 2004 El Segundo
General Plan Circulation Element. A project impact would be
considered to be significant if it either causes an intersection
operating at an acceptable Level of Service to deteriorate to an
unacceptable Level of Service, or if already operating at an
unacceptable Level of Service, adds 0.02 or more to the peak
hour ICU.
Using the identified methodology, along with the associated
ambient growth rates, and the 10 percent reduction for non -
vehicle travel (walking and transit) to the surrounding businesses
the Future With Project Conditions Peak Hour Intersection
Operation indicates that study intersections would operate at
acceptable and unacceptable levels of service in the Opening
Year Plus Project Conditions. In particular, the intersection of El
Segundo Boulevard at Continental Boulevard would operate at
Level of Service "F" and therefore, mitigation measures would be
required.
(2) Parking: Pursuant to the El Segundo Municipal Code, a
hotel type land use is required to provide one space for each of
the first 100 rooms; 3/4 space for each of the next 100 rooms; and
'/z space for each room above 200. The proposed hotel, which
proposes 152 rooms, would require 139 parking spaces. The site
plan provides a total of 89 parking spaces, including 6 handicap
accessible spaces and 1 van accessible space. To account for
the remaining 50 spaces, the hotel would enter into a reciprocal
parking agreement with the adjacent Northrup Tower. Therefore,
with approval of the reciprocal parking agreement, the proposed
hotel would provide adequate parking to meet the parking
demand. Less than significant impact would occur.
(b) Mitigation:
(1) El Segundo Boulevard at Continental Boulevard: The project
applicant must fund and install the re- striping of the westbound
through /right land to a dedicated right -turn lane and must fund the
manufacturing and installation of the associated signage, subject
to approval by The Director of Public Works. The City reserves the
right at City's expense, as determined by the Director of Public
Works, to remove the dedicated right -turn lane in the future if it is
unnecessary, as reasonably determined by the Director of Public
Works, or if a similar improvement can be substituted.
(2) Before the City issues grading permits, a reciprocal agreement
must be entered into between the Northrop Tower and the
proposed hotel to allow for the hotel's use of 50 parking spaces.
i,' �J 0
19
The reciprocal agreement must be provided to the City's Planning
and Building Safety Department.
(c) Finding:
(1) Changes or alterations have been required in or incorporated
into the project and the project has been conditioned to avoid or
substantially lessen the potential environmental effect as identified
in the MND.
8. Utilities and Service Systems.
a) Facts /Effects.
(1) New Wastewater Facilities. Wastewater is collected and
treated by the Los Angeles County Sanitation District. The
wastewater from the City of El Segundo is treated at the Joint
Water Pollution Control Plan. The proposed project would impact
wastewater facilities in three ways: local collection capacity, trunk
line delivery capacity, and treatment capacity. According to the El
Segundo General Plan EIR, implementation of the General Plan
was anticipated to generate approximately 4.8 million gallons per
day of wastewater beyond the 1990 land use conditions.
According to the El Segundo General Plan EIR, general
commercial uses generate wastewater at a rate of 4,356
gallons /acre /day. As the proposed project consists of 10.58
acres, the project would generate approximately 46,087 gallons of
wastewater a day. This represents approximately 0.37 percent of
the total anticipated increase in wastewater under the General
Plan buildout.
Wastewater from the City of El Segundo is conveyed thought the
City's system of underground pipelines and is pumped to
treatment plants. The project site would be served by the 21 -inch
underground pipeline within Continental Boulevard and a 15 -inch
pipeline within El Segundo Boulevard. The wastewater from the
City, east of Sepulveda Boulevard, including the project site, flows
to treatment plants operated by the Sanitation District of Los
Angeles County. Specifically, the project site is served by the Los
Angeles County Sanitation District's Joint Water Pollution Control
Plant ( JWPCD). The JWPCD has a design capacity of 385 million
gallons per day (mpg), and currently has an average flow of 323
mgd. The project would produce 20,875 gallons /room /day.2
A Sewer Capacity Study — El Segundo Boulevard (15 -inch) Sewer
System, was prepared by RBF Consulting, dated July 21, 2008, to
determine the capacity of the 15 -inch sewage line within El
Segundo Boulevard. The pipeline was monitored for 6 days, July
1, 2008 to July 7, 2008. The monitoring device recorded velocity
(feet per second), depth, and flow on five minute intervals.
Generation rate for hotel is 125 gallons /room/day. The project proposes 167 rooms.
20
L`5 1
Capacity was calculated based on Manning's equation and the
following parameters:
• Manning's 'n' value = 0.013
• Maximum depth /diameter (d /D) for 15 -inch = 0.70 (for
an existing sewer)
• Peak (existing flow) = 1.577 cfs
• Slope = 0.0034 ft/ft (based on as -built drawings)
Based on the as -built drawings, it was assumed that the pipeline
was designed with slopes of 0.00345 ft/ft (upstream) and 0.00337
ft/ft (downstream). Therefore, an average of 0.0034 was utilized
for analysis. The calculation concluded that the 15 -inch El
Segundo Boulevard pipeline has 1.573 cfs (705 gpm) of available
capacity.
The Sewer Capacity Study also included a calculation of
introduced wastewater flow. According to the study, the project
would generate a peak flow of 0.087 cfs. This amount is
substantially less than the available capacity in the pipeline.
Therefore, the addition of the project related wastewater would not
have a significant effect on the capacity of the pipeline. Although
capacity is adequate, mitigation measures would be required to
ensure appropriate permits are obtained prior to construction and
adequate infrastructure is in place prior to project operation.
Implementation of mitigation measures are required to reduce
impacts to less than significant.
(2) Solid Waste. Proposed demolition and construction activities
would generate construction debris from development of the
project site. Post development operations resulting from the hotel,
cafe, and bar area uses would further increase the volume of solid
waste generated from the project site over existing conditions.
According to the General Plan EIR, commercial development
generates approximately 218 pounds per acre per day. Using this
generation approximation the project would generate
approximately 9,701.86 pounds of solid waste per day (ppd).
Waste generation includes all materials discarded, whether or not
they are later recycled or disposed in a landfill. The increase in
solid waste generation would increase the demand to provide
disposal service over existing conditions, and would therefore
impact the capacity of landfills. Further, the increased solid waste
generation would incrementally shorten the lifespan of the landfills
and may impact the capacity of the Puente Hills and Sunshine
Canyon Landfills.
Participation in local recycling programs during construction and
operation, and implementation of the recommended mitigation
measures provided in the El Segundo General Plan EIR, would
21
ensure that that solid waste impacts remain at or below existing
levels.
b) Mitigation:
(1) Before the City issues building permits, the project site must be
annexed into the Los Angeles County Sanitation District No. 5.
(2) Before the City issues building permits, the project applicant
must obtain a sewer connection permit from the Los Angeles
County Sanitation District to obtain sanitary sewer service. Prior to
obtaining a connection permit, the applicant must also pay a sewer
connection fee as determined by the County Sanitation District of
Los Angeles County.
(3) Before the City issues building permits, the project applicant
must provide additional local sewer infrastructure as necessary to
connect the project site to existing sewer infrastructure. This
provision must be coordinated with the project applicant and may
be the partial responsibility of the applicant, as determined by the
City.
(4) The project applicant must comply with Title 12 of the ESMC
regarding Sewer Facilities.
(5) Before the City issues building permits, the project applicant
must submit the Final Working Drawings to the City's Planning and
Building Safety Department and the Public Works Department for
review and approval.
(7) Where feasible, the applicant must install refuse compacting
equipment to substantially reduce the number of refuse hauling
trips and allow for more effective and sanitary disposal.
(8) The applicant must work with a commercial hauler, incensed to
operate in the City of El Segundo, to coordinate recycling efforts for
the entire development.
(9) The applicant's contractor must reduce construction - generated
waste according to state law by a minimum of 50 percent. The
applicant or contractor must submit a construction waste
management plan explaining the practices that would be used to
achieve this level of reduction. This plan must be reviewed and
accepted by the City's Solid Waste Management Coordinator
before the City issues grading permits.
c) Finding:
(1) Changes or alterations have been required in or incorporated
into the project and the project has been conditioned to avoid or
J J
22
substantially lessen the potential environmental effect as identified
in the MND.

199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan: Permits hotels at a maximum
floor area ratio (FAR) of 0.92. Permits general office, medical - dental offices,
public uses, including, but not limited to fire and police stations, post offices and
libraries, recreational uses (public and private), research and development uses,
and restaurants and cafes at a maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of 0.80.

Excerpt from Pages 3 -11 and 3 -12 of the El Segundo General Plan Land
Use Element
Proposed Land Use Plan
Northeast Quadrant
On the 1992 Land Use Plan, the majority of the northeast quadrant is designated either
Corporate Office (216.6 21$.4 ac) or Urban Mixed -Use (232.5 ac). The Corporate
Campus Specific Plan (46.5 ac) also allows a mixture of office and commercial uses.
Corporate Office allows a mixture of office uses with retail in the lobby. This designation
covers the "Superblock Area" and will allow uses similar to those currently in that area.
(Ord. 1345, GPA 01 -2, 1/2/02)
The Urban Mixed -Use North and South designations allow a mixture of uses, including
office, hotels, and retail and light industrial with discretionary approval. The Urban
Mixed -Use North and South designations are designed to allow for a flexibility of uses
near the three existing, and one future, Green Line transit stations. For the most part, the
types of uses allowed are different from the light and heavy industrial uses currently in
this area. These designations will accommodate a transition from these uses, which is
being driven by the market forces described in the Economic Development Element.
(Ord. 1272, GPA 97 -1, 6/17/97).
General Commercial uses are proposed along Sepulveda Boulevard and along El
Segundo Boulevard, east of Aviation Boulevard. This designation allows retail and hotel
uses. The site along El Segundo Boulevard, east of Aviation Boulevard (3.8 ac), as well
as the site at the northeast corner of Sepulveda Boulevard and Mariposa Avenue (3.2 ac)
are already in commercial use. The site on the southeast corner of Sepulveda Boulevard
and Mariposa Avenue (7.1 ac) is currently vacant, except for an existing bank building.
The area bounded by Nash Street, Maple Avenue, Lairport Street, and Imperial Avenue is
designated as light industrial, which is consistent with the uses currently operating in that
area, primarily the Hughes facility (50.4 ac).
The parcel at 199 North Continental Boulevard between El Segundo Boulevard and
Grand Avenue bounded by Continental Boulevard to the east, 101 North Continental
Boulevard to the south and west and 201 North Continental Boulevard to the north is a
Specific Plan area ( "199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan ") which encoural;es
rima ily a hotel use with a maximum floor area ratio of 0.92• however offices medical -
dental offices public uses recreational facilities (public and private) research and
development and restaurants and cafes with a maximum floor area ratio of 0.80 may also
be developed on the site (1.75 ac.).

The area bounded generally by Aviation Boulevard, El Segundo Boulevard, and Douglas
Street is currently a U.S. Government Air Force Base (48.5 ac), which is expected to
remain for the life of the Plan. The Federal Government designation placed on this area
will allow the types of uses that are existing.
The narrow parcel near the northwest intersection of El Segundo Boulevard and Aviation
Boulevard (3.93 ac), between El Segundo Boulevard and 124th Street, is a Specific Plan
area ("124th Street Specific Plan ") which encourages primarily warehousing and storage
uses; however, a City Water Facility may also be developed on the site. (Ord. 1309, GPA

1 Existing construction and recently constructed, renovated commercial centers and legal non- conforming
residential uses at densities that are currently higher than allowed by the land use designations in this plan will not
realistically be converted to mixed commercial /residential uses and these buildings are expected to remain for the
life of the Plan.
2 The heavy industrial shown on this plan includes the Chevron Refinery and former Southern California Edison
Generation Station. These facilities have processing equipment and tanks rather than buildings and are expected to
remain for the life of the Plan. Therefore, no estimated building square footage is shown.

AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT NO. 09 -03, ADDING Ell
SEGUNDO MUNICIPAL CODE (ESMC) § 15- 3- 2(A)(6) AND
AMENDING ESMC §§ 15- 3 -2(A) AND 15 -3 -1 FOR THE 199
NORTH CONTINENTAL BOULEVARD SITE REZONING AND
199 NORTH CONTINENTAL BOULEVARD SPECIFIC PLAN
PROJECT.
The City Council of the City of El Segundo does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1: The City Council finds and declares that:
A. On December 1, 2009, JF El Segundo Owner, LLC, filed an
application for an Environmental Assessment (EA No. 844),
General Plan Amendment No. 09 -02, Zone Change No. 09 -02,
Zone Text Amendment No. 09 -04, Specific Plan No. 09 -02,
Development Agreement No. 09 -03, and Administrative Use Permit
No. 09 -06 to re- designate and rezone an approximately 1.75 acre
property at 199 North Continental Boulevard from Corporate Office
(CO) Zone to 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan
(NCBSP) to allow construction of a six -story, 71,005 square -foot
hotel with 152 rooms;
B. The applications from the JF El Segundo Owner, LLC, were
reviewed by the City of El Segundo Planning and Building Safety
Department for, in part, consistency with the General Plan and
conformity with the El Segundo Municipal Code ( "ESMC ");
C. In addition, the City reviewed the project's environmental impacts
under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources
Code §§ 21000, et seq., "CEQA "), the regulations promulgated
thereunder (14 Cal. Code of Regulations § §15000, et seq., the
"CEQA Guidelines "), and the City's Environmental Guidelines (City
Council Resolution No. 3805, adopted March 16, 1993);
D. An Addendum to the Initial Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration for
EA No. 773 (approved by the El Segundo Planning Commission on
September 25, 2008) was prepared pursuant to the requirements of
CEQA Guidelines § 15164. Pursuant to CEQA, the Addendum
need not be circulated for public review (CEQA § 15164(c))
however, an addendum is to be considered by the decision - making
body before to making a decision on the project (CEQA §
15164(d));
E. The Planning and Building Safety Department completed its review
and scheduled a public hearing regarding the application before the
Planning Commission for March 18, 2010. Following the March
18th public hearing, the Planning Commission recommended that
the City Council adopt this Ordinance;
F. On April 6, 2010 the City Council held a public hearing and
considered the information provided by City staff, public testimony
and the applicant, JF El Segundo Owner, LLC; and
G. This Ordinance and its findings are made based upon testimony
and evidence presented to the Council at its April 6, 2010 hearing
including, without limitation, the staff report submitted by the
Department of Planning and Building Safety.
SECTION 2: Factual Findings and Conclusions. The City Council finds and
declares that the factual findings and conclusions set forth in Resolution No.
, adopted on April 6, 2010, are incorporated as if fully set forth.
SECTION 3: Zone Change Findings.
A. Based on the factual findings of this Ordinance, the proposed Zone
Change is necessary to carry out the proposed project because the
proposed General Plan Amendment would change the land use
classification of the project site from Corporate Office (CO) to 199
North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan (NCBSP). The proposed
Zone Change is necessary to maintain consistency with the
proposed General Plan land uses designation of 199 North
Continental Boulevard Specific Plan.
B. ESMC Title 15 is intended to be the primary tool for implementing
the goals, objectives and policies of the El Segundo General Plan.
The zone change will maintain consistency with the proposed
change in General Plan land use designation to 199 North
Continental Boulevard Specific Plan and is also consistent with the
following General Plan goals, objectives and policies discussed in
Section 4 of Resolution No. , adopted on April 6, 2010, which
is incorporated as if fully set forth:
1. Land Use Element Policy LU4 -1.2 "all commercial facilities
shall be built and maintained in accordance with Health and
Safety Code requirements and shall meet seismic safety
regulations and environmental regulations."
C.81
2
2. Land Use Element Objective LU4 -4 to "provide areas where
development has the flexibility to mix uses, in an effort to
provide synergistic relationships which have the potential to
maximize economic benefit, reduce traffic impacts, and
encourage pedestrian environments."
3. Land Use Element Policy LU4 -3.6 to "require landscaping, its
maintenance, and permanent upkeep in all new office and
mixed -use developments."
4. Land Use Element Policy LU5 -2.2 that "all outdoor storage shall
be properly screened by masonry walls and landscaping."
5. Land Use Element Policy LU7 -1.2 in that "no new development
shall be allowed unless adequate public facilities are in place or
provided for."
6. Circulation Element Objective C1 -1 to "provide a roadway
system that accommodates the City's existing and projected
land use and circulation needs."
7. Circulation Element Policy C1 -1.2 to "pursue implementation of
all Circulation Element policies such that all Master Plan
roadways are upgraded and maintained at acceptable levels of
service."
8. Circulation Element Policy C1 -1.5 to "implement roadway and
intersection upgrades to full Circulation Element standards
when needed to improve traffic operating conditions and to
serve development."
9. Circulation Element Policy C1 -1.14 to "require a full evaluation
of potential traffic impacts associated with proposed new
development prior to project approval. Further, require the
implementation of appropriate mitigation measures prior to, or in
conjunction with, project development. Mitigation measures
may include new roadway links on segments that would connect
the new development to the existing roadway system,
intersection improvements, and other measures. Mitigation
measures shall be provided by or paid for by the project
developer."
10. Circulation Element Policy C1 -3.2 to "ensure that the
development review process incorporates consideration of off -
street commercial loading requirements for all new projects."
x,'18.2
3
11. Circulation Element Policy C2 -1.3 to "encourage new
developments in the City to participate in the development of the
citywide system of pedestrian walkways and require
participation funded by the project developer where
appropriate."
12. Circulation Element Policy C2 -1.4 to "ensure the installation of
sidewalks on all future arterial widening or new construction
projects, to establish a continuous and convenient link for
pedestrians."
13. Circulation Element Policy 3 -1.1 to "require all new development
to mitigate project - related impacts on the existing and future
circulation system such that all Master Plan roadways and
intersections are upgraded and maintained at acceptable levels
of service through implementation of all applicable Circulation
Element policies. Mitigation measures shall be provided by or
paid for by the project developer."
14. Circulation Element Policy C3 -1.8 to "require the provision of
adequate pedestrian and bicycle access for new development
projects through the development review process."
15. Circulation Element Policy C3 -2.1 to "ensure the provision of
sufficient on -site parking in all new development."
SECTION 4: Zone Text Amendment Findings. Based on the factual findings of
this Ordinance, the proposed Zone Text Amendment is necessary to carry out
the proposed project to create the proposed 199 North Continental Boulevard
Specific Plan (NCBSP) Zone, which would allow commercial development of the
project site. Without an amendment to the ESMC, the current zoning would not
permit a hotel development with a 0.92 Floor Area Ratio (FAR). An amendment
to ESMC § 15- 3 -2(A) to create the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific
Plan (NCBSP) is necessary for consistency with the General Plan. Additionally,
an amendment to ESMC § 15 -3 -1 to list the 199 North Continental Boulevard
Specific Plan (NCBSP) Zone as a zoning classification with the City is necessary
for consistency with the General Plan.
SECTION 5: Specific Plan Findings.
A. Based on the factual findings of this Ordinance, the proposed
creation of the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan
(NCBSP), which would allow commercial development of the
project site, is necessary to carry out the proposed project. Without
an amendment to the ESMC, the current zoning would not permit a
hotel development with a 0.92 Floor Area Ratio (FAR). An
4 i
amendment to ESMC § 15- 3 -2(A) to create the 199 North
Continental Boulevard Specific Plan (NCBSP) is necessary for
consistency with the General Plan. Additionally, an amendment to
ESMC § 15 -3 -1 to list the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific
Plan (NCBSP) Zone as a zoning classification with the City is
necessary for consistency with the General Plan. The General
Plan Land Use Designation of the project site is 199 North
Continental Boulevard Specific Plan (NCBSP). This designation is
for hotels not to exceed 0.92 floor area ratio (FAR), and general
office, research and development, restaurants and cafes, medical -
dental offices, not to exceed 0.80 floor area ratio (FAR).
SECTION 6: Development Agreement Findings. Pursuant to City Council
Resolution No. 3268, adopted June 26, 1984, the City Council finds that:
A. The project is consistent with the objectives, policies, general land
uses, and programs specified in the general plan and any
applicable specific plan. The Development Agreement would
provide the following public benefits in exchange for valuable
development rights (eight -year entitlement):
1. Development of a property that is currently vacant and
underutilized.
2. Increasing and further stabilizing the City's tax base through
development of a new hotel.
3. Increase in employment opportunities for the City's residents.
4. Increasing City revenues through the generation of taxes that
outweigh the City cost of services.
5. Development of a project that is consistent with the Elements of
the General Plan.
6. Development of a Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design (LEED) Certified building.
7. Improvements to roadways and intersections in the project
vicinity.
8. Contribution of $75,000 to the Recreation and Parks
Department for capital improvement projects that will benefit
children.
9. Contribution of $19,881.40 in police, fire, and library mitigation
fees to offset the impacts of the project on public services, or
such amount as may be required when the City issues
certificates of occupancy.
10. Contribution of $217,940.00 in traffic impact mitigation fees
(Zone 1 $2,564 per PM peak trip) traffic impact mitigation fees
to offset the impacts of the project on public roadway
infrastructure, or such amount as may be required when the City
issues certificates of occupancy.
U,84
G
�
B. The project is compatible with the uses authorized in, and the
regulations prescribed for, the land use district in which the real
property is located. The proposed project includes a new land use
designation and zoning classification, which establishes the
permitted uses and development standards that would apply to the
project. These uses and development standards are similar and
compatible with the other commercially zoned districts in the City.
C. The project will not be detrimental to the health, safety and general
welfare. The proposed project will not create any negative
environmental impacts. The mitigation measures listed in the
mitigated negative declaration are sufficient to reduce all identified
environmental impacts to less than significant levels.
D. The project will not adversely affect the orderly development of
property or the preservation of property values. The proposed 199
North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan development standards
and development agreement will ensure that the project will be
developed in an orderly fashion. All mitigation measures will be
implemented at the time and place impacts occur.
SECTION 7: Approvals.
A. The City Council adds ESMC § 15- 3- 2(A)(6) to read as follows:
"6. 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan
There is one zone intended to be used within the boundaries
of the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan. The
zone is:
NCBSP - 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan"
B. The City Council amends the current Zoning Map to reflect a
change of the Project area which is bounded by and fronts on North
Continental Boulevard to the east; 101 North Continental Boulevard
to the south and west, and 201 North Continental Boulevard to the
north from Corporate Office (CO) to 199 North Continental
Boulevard Specific Plan. The corresponding changes to the Zoning
Map as set forth in attached Exhibit "A," which is incorporated into
this Ordinance by reference.
C. The City Council adopts the 199 North Continental Boulevard
Specific Plan, as set forth in attached Exhibit "B," which is
incorporated into this Ordinance by reference.
I•
D. The City Council adopts the Development Agreement by and
between the City of El Segundo, and JF EL Segundo Owner, LLC,
as set forth in attached Exhibit "C," which is incorporated into this
Ordinance by reference.
SECTION 8: Environmental Assessment. Resolution No. adopted an
Addendum to previously adopted Initial Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration
(IS /MND) for this Project which, among other things, properly assesses the
environmental impact of this Ordinance, and the Project, in accordance with
CEQA. This Ordinance incorporates by reference the environmental findings and
analysis set forth in Resolution No.
SECTION 9: Repeal or amendment of any provision of the ESMC will not affect
any penalty, forfeiture, or liability incurred before or preclude prosecution and
imposition of penalties for any violation occurring before this Ordinance's
effective date. Any such repealed part will remain in full force and effect for
sustaining action or prosecuting violations occurring before the effective date of
this Ordinance.
SECTION 10: The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of
this Ordinance; cause it to be entered into the City of El Segundo's book of
original ordinances; make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of
this meeting; and, within fifteen (15) days after the passage and adoption of this
Ordinance, cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law.
SECTION 11: Severability. If any part of this Ordinance or its application is
deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the city council intends that
such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions or
applications and, to this end, the provisions of this Ordinance are severable.

1.0 SUMMARY
This Specific Plan has been prepared to allow
flexibility in the development of a hotel or
development of other uses consistent with the
adjacent zoning district. The 199 North Continental
Boulevard Specific Plan provides detailed text and
exhibits which describes the hotel project and the
improvements that are envisioned to occur within
the project. The Specific Plan will guide the build -
out of the project site in a manner that is consistent
with City and State policies and standards and
ensures that the project is developed in a
coordinated manner.
1.1 PURPOSE AND AUTHORITY
The purpose of this Plan is to provide a foundation
for the proposed land uses on the subject property
through the application of regulations, standards
and design guidelines. The 199 North Continental
Boulevard Specific Plan provides text and exhibits
which describe the proposed land uses and
associated guidelines.
This Specific Plan must be adopted in accordance
with the provisions of Government Code §§ 65450
through 65457, which grants local governments
authority to prepare Specific Plans of development
for any area regulated by a General Plan.
Government Code §§ 65450 through 65454
establishes the authority to adopt a Specific Plan,
identifies the required contents of a Specific Plan,
and mandates consistency with the General Plan.
According to Government Code § 65450, a Specific
Plan must include text and a diagram or diagrams
which specify all of the following in detail:
The distribution, location, and extent of the
uses of land, including open space within
the area covered by the plan.
The proposed distribution, location, extent,
and intensity of major components of public
March 2010
and private transportation, sewage, water,
drainage, solid waste disposal, energy and
other essential facilities proposed to be
located within the land area covered by the
plan and needed to support the land uses
described in the plan.
Standards and criteria by which
development will proceed, and standards for
the conservation, development, and
utilization of natural resources, where
applicable.
A program of implementation measures
including regulations, programs, public
works projects and financing measures
necessary to carry out the above items.
A discussion of the relationship of the
Specific Plan to the General Plan.
A thorough review of the El Segundo General Plan
shows that this Specific Plan is compatible and
consistent with the goals and policies outlined in
the General Plan. This Specific Plan will further the
goals and policies of the General Plan.
This Specific Plan was prepared to provide the
essential relationship between the policies of the El
Segundo General Plan and actual development in
the project area. By functioning as a regulatory
document, the 199 North Continental Boulevard
Specific Plan provides a means of implementing
and detailing the City of El Segundo's General
Plan. All future development plans and
entitlements within the Specific Plan boundaries
must be consistent with the standards set forth in
this document.

1.2 PROJECT HISTORY
On September 25, 2008, the El Segundo Planning
Commission approved Environmental Assessment
No. EA 733 and Conditional Use Permit No. 07 -07
to allow construction of a six - story, 61,104 square -
foot hotel on a 1.75 acre site located at 101
Continental Boulevard (new address of 199 North
Continental Boulevard), at the northwest corner of
El Segundo Boulevard and Continental Boulevard,
immediately north and adjacent to the Northrop
Tower (formerly the Xerox Tower). The Hotel (Aloft
Hotel) was approved for a total of 167 rooms at a
maximum FAR of 0.80 as permitted in the
Corporate Office Zone.
In August 2009, JF El Segundo Owner, LLC,
submitted a new project requesting minor
modifications to the original approval.
1.3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The 1.75 acre 199 North Continental Boulevard
Specific Plan area is paved with parking and was
originally part of a larger 10.58 acre site which
included the 101 Continental Boulevard property. A
lot line adjustment created the 1.75 acre plan area.
The project consists of a 71,005 square foot, 152 -
room hotel with a 0.92 FAR; essentially a slightly

The revised project is similar to the original project
and has some additional benefits: (1) the project
generates fewer vehicle trips; (2) provides more
favorable economic development; and (3) provides
better hotel amenities. This Specific Plan
implements the desire to support the revised
project with an FAR in excess of that permitted by
the Corporate Office (CO) Zone. A comparison is
shown in Table 1; differences are highlighted in
bold text.

1.4 CEQA COMPLIANCE
Under the original proposal (Aloft Hotel), the El
Segundo Planning Commission adopted an Initial
Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS /MND)
pursuant to CEQA § 15070. Since the project
underwent minor modifications, the City prepared
an addendum to the original IS /MND. Pursuant to
CEQA, an addendum to an adopted Negative
Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration is
needed if minor technical changes or modifications
to the proposed project occur (CEQA Guidelines §
15164) and only if those minor changes do not
result in any new significant impacts or a
substantial increase in the severity of previously
identified significant impacts. The addendum need
not be circulated for public review (CEQA
guidelines § 15164[c]); however, an addendum
must be considered by the decision - making body
before making a decision on the project (CEQA
Guidelines § 15164[d]).
An addendum for the revised Project was prepared
and found that the project revisions do not result in
significant modifications. Thus, the Initial
Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration prepared for
the previously approved project located on this
same site, with addendum, will serve as the CEQA
documentation for the 199 North Continental
Boulevard Specific Plan. This environmental
review is also applicable to future hotel
development projects that are processed in
conformance with this Specific Plan, thus requiring
no further environmental documentation as noted in
Sections 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
The document establishes the following
development thresholds shown in Table 2 below.

5.4.1 Minor Modifications to Proiect.Developer may make minor
changes to the Project and Project Approvals ( "Minor Modifications ") without amending
this Agreement upon the administrative approval of the City of El Segundo Director of
Planning and Building Safety (the "City Planning and Building Safety Director ") or
designee, provided that such modifications are consistent with the Development
Standards, Applicable Rules and Project Approvals. The City cannot unreasonably
withhold or delay approval of any Minor Modification. The City has the right to impose
reasonable conditions in connection with Minor Modifications, provided, however, such
conditions cannot (i) be inconsistent with the Applicable Rules, the Project Approvals or
with the development of the Project as contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) directly or
indirectly, unreasonably hinder, delay, impede, obstruct, interfere with, or place
unreasonably burdensome or restrictive measures or requirements upon development of
the Project or the Property or any portion thereof; or (iii) impose additional dedications,

those identified in the Applicable Rules, the Project Approvals, or this Agreement.
5.4.2 Modification of Project Approvals.It is contemplated by
City and Developer that Developer may, from time to time, pursuant to Section 5.4.1 seek
Minor Modifications to the Project or one or more of the Project Approvals. Any such
Minor Modifications are contemplated by City and Developer as being within the scope
of this Agreement as long as they are authorized pursuant to this Section 5.4.2 and must,
upon approval by City, continue to constitute the Project Approvals as referenced herein.
The Parties agree that any such amendments do not constitute an amendment to this
Agreement nor require an amendment to this Agreement.
5.4.3 Modifications Requiring Amendment to this
Agreement.Any proposed modification to the Project which results in any of the

5.5 Plan Review.Plans for each building on the Property, including
plans for signage, trash enclosures and screening and landscaping, must be reviewed and
approved by the City Planning and Building Safety Director before the City issues a
building permit, provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in the Applicable Rules, the sole purpose of such review is to verify
consistency with the Development Standards, Applicable Rules and Project Approvals.
The City Planning and Building Safety Director must approve all features which are
consistent with the Development Standards, Applicable Rules or Project Approvals or are
otherwise specifically approved by this Agreement and has no authority to disapprove or
conditionally approve any features or matters which are consistent with or otherwise
which have been specifically approved by this Agreement.
5.6 Timing of Development.In Pardee Construction Co. v. City of
Camarillo ( "Pardee "), 37 Cal. 3d 465 (1984), the California Supreme Court held that the
failure of the parties therein to provide for the timing or rate of development resulted in a
later- adopted initiative restricting the rate of development to prevail against the parties'
agreement. City and Developer intend to avoid the result in Pardee by acknowledging
and providing that Developer has the right, without obligation, to develop the Property in
such order and at such rate and times as Developer deems appropriate within the exercise
of its subjective business judgment subject to the term of this Agreement.
5.6.1 Limitations.
In furtherance of the Parties' intent, as set forth in this
Section, no future amendment of any existing City ordinance or resolution, or future
adoption of any ordinance, resolution or other action, that purports to limit the rate or
timing of development over time or alter the sequencing of development phases, whether
adopted or imposed by the City Council or through the initiative or referendum process,
applies to the Property. However, nothing in this Section can be construed to limit City's
right to enforce Developer's obligation pursuant to this Agreement to provide all
infrastructure required by the Project Approvals and this Agreement.
5.7 Term.This Agreement is in effect for a period of eight (8) years
from the Effective Date. However, Developer or City are entitled to one (1) five (5) year
extension by written notice to the other Party before the Agreement's expiration,
provided that the requesting Party is not in material default of its obligations hereunder at
such time. In addition, every approval granted for the Project other than ministerial
approvals remains valid for a period of time equal to the term of this Agreement.
5.8 Issuance of Building Permits.No building permit, final inspection
or certificate of occupancy will be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed from
the Developer if all infrastructure required to serve the portion of the Property covered by
the building permit, final inspection or certificate of occupancy is in place or is suitably
guaranteed to be completed (by covenant, bond, letter of credit or otherwise) to the
reasonable satisfaction of the City before completion of construction and all of the other
relevant provisions of the Project Approvals, Future Approvals and this Agreement have
been satisfied.
5.9 Satisfaction of Mitigation Measures and Conditions.In the event
that any of the mitigation measures or conditions required of Developer hereunder have
been implemented by others, Developer will be conclusively deemed to have satisfied
such mitigation measures or conditions, consistent with CEQA. If any such mitigation
measures or conditions are rejected by a governmental agency with jurisdiction, the
Developer may implement reasonably equivalent substitute mitigation, consistent with
CEQA, to the City's satisfaction, in lieu of the rejected mitigation measures or
conditions. Such substitution constitutes a Minor Modification pursuant to Section 5.4.1
above.
5.10 Moratorium.The Property is exempt from any moratorium or other
limitation (including but not limited to the rate, timing, phasing or sequencing of
development) affecting subdivision maps, building permits, certificates of occupancy or
other land use entitlements that are approved or to be approved, issued or granted within
the City, or portions of the City, except those that are necessary to protect a significant
threat to the health, safety and welfare of the City. Any moratorium imposed tolls the
time periods set forth in this Agreement.
5.11 Performance of City Planning and BuildingL Safety Director
Duties.If the City determines at any time during the term of this Agreement that
the duties to be performed by the City Planning and Building Safety Director under this
Agreement will be performed by one or more staff members other than the Planning and

Building Safety Director, the City will endeavor to notify the Developer of such change.
The City must ensure that a person or persons are designated at all times to carry out the
duties of the Planning and Building Safety Director set forth in this Agreement.
6. Developer Agreements.
6.1 General.The Developer must comply with (i) this Agreement, (ii)
the Project Approvals, including without limitation all mitigation measures required by
the determination made pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, and (iii)
all Future Approvals for which it is the applicant or a successor in interest to the
applicant.
6.2 Development Fees.Subject to the provisions of Section 4.4 above,
Developer must pay the development fees in effect at such time that building permits are
issued for the Project. The Developer is entitled to credits against the City's traffic
mitigation fees to the extent Developer has off -site traffic improvements that are required
by the Project Approvals and are included in any subsequent traffic fee mitigation
program adopted by the City pursuant to Government Code §§ 66000, et seq. Such
credits are based upon the actual audited costs and can only be granted to the extent such
improvements are constructed in accordance with all applicable state and local laws. The
Developer waives any and all rights it may have to challenge development fees that are
currently applicable to development within the City and the City's right to amend its
current development fees and/or impose additional development fees. However, the
Developer retains the legal right to challenge the amount of any such amended or
increased development fees to the extent such are not in compliance with the
requirements of Government Code §§ 66000, et seq. as well as its right to receive credits
against such amended or increased fees.
6.3 City Benefits.
Developer's Project must be LEED Certified in compliance with
the U.S. Green Building Council standards in effect as of the Effective Date. Developer
also agrees to contribute $75,000 to the City's Recreation and Parks Department for

time through the scheduled termination date of this Agreement as set forth in Section 5.7
above.

valued at $5,000,000 or more, Developer agrees to report, on a State Board of
Equalization Tax Return, any purchases of tangible personal property made in connection
with the finishing of and/or installation of materials, or fixtures for the Project, when such
purchases were made without sales or use tax due. Developer must indicate the City as a
registered job site location on the State Board of Equalization Tax Return. In such event,
Developer must also obtain a permit or a sub - permit from the State Board of Equalization
indicating the City as the registered job site location, in accordance with State Board of
Equalization Operations Memorandum No. 1023.

efforts to obtain said permit or sub - permits, but were denied the same by the State Board
of Equalization
6.7 Third -Party Agreements Restricting Uses on Property.Developer
warrants and represents that it has not and will not enter into any agreements with third -
parties, or record any restrictions against the Property, which directly or indirectly limit
the potential uses for the Property that are currently permitted pursuant to this Agreement
or in the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan in any respect including without
limitation the particular retailers, types and/or sizes of structures or businesses, types of
uses, or the owners of any businesses allowed on the Property. The Developer may
request that the City Council consent to any such restriction which consent may be
withheld in the City Council's sole discretion.
7. City/Developer Agreements.
7.1 Expedited Processing.The City must process, at Developer's
expense, in an expedited manner all plan checking, hearings, excavation, grading,

199 North Continental Boulevard in compliance with the 199 North Continental
Boulevard Specific Plan and the ESMC, at the locations designated on Exhibit "C."
8. Modification /Suspension.Pursuant to Government Code § 65869.5, in the

federal law or regulation, as reasonably determined necessary by City. Upon repeal of
said law or regulation or the occurrence of any other event removing the effect thereof

Developer must, within thirty (30) days before the annual Effective Date, submit a
written status report that, during the preceding twelve (12) month period, it has been in

commercially reasonable manner (taking into account the circumstances which then
exist) and in good faith in and has substantially complied with the Developer's material
obligations under this Agreement.
9.3 Information to be Provided to Developer-Fourteen (14) days before
the annual Effective Date the City must deliver to the Developer a copy of all staff

adequate opportunity to be heard orally and in writing regarding its performance and, at
its option, the City's performance under the Agreement before the completion of the City
Planning and Building Safety Director's Periodic Review.
9.4 Notice Of Non - Compliance Cure Rights.Subject to the provisions
of Section 14.1 below, if at the completion of Periodic Review, the City Planning and

by the Planning Commission that the Developer is not in compliance with this
Agreement, and the City Council determines that the Developer demonstrated that it is in
good faith compliance with this Agreement, the City Council's determination is final and
non - appealable by the public.
9.6 Failure of Periodic Review.The City's failure to review, at least
annually, compliance by the Developer with the terms and conditions of this Agreement
does not constitute nor can it be asserted by any Party as a breach by any other Party of
this Agreement. If the City has not completed an annual review in any twelve (12) month
period, Developer may request in writing a Review Letter. If City fails to provide a
Review Letter within sixty (60) days, Developer will be deemed to be in conformity with
this Agreement as of Developer's request date.
10. Excusable Delays.Performance by any Party of its obligations hereunder

11. Default Provisions.
11.1 Default.Either Party to this Agreement will have breached this
Agreement if it materially breaches any of the provisions of this Agreement and the same
is not cured within the time set forth in a written notice of violation (the "Notice of
Violation ") from the non - breaching Party to the breaching Party, which period of time
shall not be less than ten (10) days for monetary defaults, and not less than sixty (60)
days for non - monetary defaults from the date that the notice is deemed received, provided
if the breaching Party cannot reasonably cure a non - monetary default within the time set
forth in the notice, then the breaching Party is not in default if it commences to cure the
default within such time limit and diligently effects such cure thereafter. Failure or delay
in giving notice of any default does not constitute a waiver of any default nor change the
time of default. If the City determines that a default may have occurred, the City must
give written notice to the Developer of its intention to terminate this Agreement and
comply with the notice and public hearing requirements of Government Code §§ 65867
and 65868. At the time and place set for the hearing on termination, the Developer will
be given an opportunity to be heard. If the City Council finds, based upon the evidence,
h
-14-
that the Developer is in breach of this Agreement, the City Council may modify or
terminate this Agreement.
11.2 Content of Notice of Violation.Every Notice of Violation must
state with specificity that it is given pursuant to this Section of the Agreement, the nature
of the alleged breach, (including references to the pertinent provisions of this
Agreement), the portion of the Property involved, and the manner in which the breach
may be satisfactorily cured. The notice is deemed given in accordance with Section 19
hereof.
11.3 Remedies for Breach.The Parties agree that the remedies for
breach of this Agreement are limited to the remedies expressly set forth in this
subsection. The remedies for breach of this Agreement by City or Developer are limited
to injunctive relief and/or specific performance.
12. Mortgagee Protection.This Agreement does not prevent or limit the
Developer, in any manner, at Developer's sole discretion, from encumbering the Property
or any portion thereof or any improvements thereon by any mortgage, deed of trust or
other security device. The City acknowledges that the lender(s) providing such financing
( "Mortgagee ") may require certain Agreement interpretations and agrees, upon request,
from time to time, to meet with the Developer and representatives of such lender(s) to
provide within a reasonable time period the City's response to such requested
interpretations. The City will not unreasonably withhold its consent to any such
requested interpretation, provided that such interpretation is consistent with the intent and
purposes of this Agreement. Any Mortgagee of a mortgage or a beneficiary of a deed of
trust or any successor or assign thereof, including without limitation the purchaser at a
judicial or non - judicial foreclosure sale or a person or entity who obtains title by deed -in-
lieu of foreclosure on the Property is entitled to the rights and privileges stated herein.
12.1 Mortgage Not Rendered Invalid.Neither entering into this
Agreement nor a breach of this Agreement will defeat, render invalid, diminish, or impair
the priority of the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust on the Property made in good
faith and for value. No Mortgagee has an obligation or duty under this Agreement to
perform the Developer's obligations, or to guarantee such performance, before taking
title to all or a portion of the Property.
12.2 Request for Notice to Mortgagee-The Mortgagee of any mortgage
or deed of trust encumbering the Property, or any part thereof, who has submitted a
request in writing to the City in the manner specified herein for giving notices, is entitled
to receive a copy of any Notice of Violation delivered to the Developer.
12.3 Mortgagee's Time to Cure.The City must provide a copy of any
Notice of Violation to the Mortgagee within ten (10) days of sending the Notice of
Violation to the Developer. The Mortgagee has the right, but not the obligation, to cure
the default for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of such Notice of Violation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such default is a default that can only be remedied by
such Mortgagee obtaining possession of a Property, or any portion thereof, and such
-15- lei
Mortgagee seeks to obtain possession, such Mortgagee has until thirty (30) days after the
date of obtaining such possession to cure or, if such default cannot reasonably be cured
within such period, to commence to cure such default, provided that such default is cured
no later than one (1) year after Mortgagee obtains such possession.
12.4 Cure Rights.Any Mortgagee who takes title to all of the Property,
or any part thereof, pursuant to foreclosure of the mortgage or deed of trust, or a deed in
lieu of foreclosure, will succeed to the rights and obligations of the Developer under this
Agreement as to the Property or portion thereof so acquired; provided, however, in no
event is such Mortgagee liable for any defaults or monetary obligations of the Developer
arising before acquisition of title to the Property by such Mortgagee, except that any such
Mortgagee is not entitled to a building permit or occupancy certificate until all delinquent
and current fees and other monetary or non - monetary obligations due under this
Agreement for the Property, or portion thereof acquired by such Mortgagee, are paid.
12.5 Bankruptcy.If any Mortgagee is prohibited from commencing or
prosecuting foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature of foreclosure by
any process or injunction issued by any court or by reason of any action by any court
having jurisdiction of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings involving the
Developer, the times specified in Section 12.3 above will be extended for the period of
the prohibition, except that any such extension cannot extend the term of this Agreement.
12.6 Disaffirmation.lf this Agreement is terminated as to any portion of
the Property by reason of: (i) any default or (ii) as a result of a bankruptcy proceeding,
this Agreement is disaffirmed by a receiver, liquidator, or trustee for the Developer or its
property, the City, if requested by any Mortgagee, will negotiate in good faith with such
Mortgagee for a new development agreement for the Project as to such portion of the
Property with the most senior Mortgagee requesting such new agreement. This
Agreement does not require any Mortgagee or the City to enter into a new development
agreement pursuant to this Section.
13. Estoppel Certificate.At any time and from time to time, the Developer
may deliver written notice to City and City may deliver written notice to the Developer
requesting that such Party certify in writing that, to the knowledge of the certifying Party:
i) this Agreement is in full force and effect and a binding obligation of the Parties; ii) this
Agreement has not been amended, or if amended, the identity of each amendment; and
iii) the requesting Party is not in breach of this Agreement, or if in breach, a description
of each such breach. The Party receiving such a request must execute and return the
certificate within thirty (30) days following receipt of the notice. The failure of the City
to deliver such a written notice within such time constitutes a conclusive presumption
against the City that, except as may be represented by the Developer, this Agreement is in
full force and effect without modification, and that there are no uncured defaults in the
performance of the Developer. The Planning and Building Safety Director is authorized
to execute, on behalf of the City, any Estoppel Certificate requested by the Developer.
City acknowledges that a certificate may be relied upon by successors in interest to the
Developer who requested the certificate and by holders of record of deeds of trust on the
portion of the Property in which that Developer has a legal interest.
14. Administration of Agreement.
14.1 Appeal of Staff Determinations.Any decision by City staff
concerning the interpretation or administration of this Agreement or development of the
Property in accordance herewith may be appealed by the Developer to the Planning
Commission, and thereafter, if necessary, to the City Council pursuant to the El Segundo
Municipal Code. The Developer cannot seek judicial review of any staff decision
without first having exhausted its remedies pursuant to this Section. Final determinations
by the City Council are subject to judicial review subject to the restrictions and
limitations of California law.
14.2 OperatingLMemoranda.The provisions of this Agreement require a
close degree of cooperation between City and Developer. During the Term of this
Agreement, clarifications to this Agreement and the Applicable Rules may be appropriate
with respect to the details of performance of City and Developer. If and when, from time
to time, during the term of this Agreement, City and Developer agree that such
clarifications are necessary or appropriate, they will effectuate such clarification through
operating memoranda approved in writing by City and Developer, which, after execution,
will be attached hereto and become part of this Agreement and the same may be further
clarified from time to time as necessary with future written approval by City and the
Developer. Operating memoranda are not intended to and do not constitute an
amendment to this Agreement but are mere ministerial clarifications. Consequently,
public notices and hearings are not required. The City Attorney is authorized, upon
consultation with, and approval of, the Developer, to determine whether a requested
clarification may be effectuated pursuant to this Section or whether the requested
clarification is of such character to constitute an amendment hereof which requires
compliance with the provisions of Section 15 below. The authority to enter into such
operating memoranda is delegated to the Planning and Building Safety Director, and the
Planning and Building Safety Director is authorized to execute any operating memoranda
without further City Council action.
14.3 Certificate of Performance.Upon the completion of the Project, or
the completion of development of any parcel within the Project, or upon completion of
performance of this Agreement or its earlier revocation and termination, the City must
provide the Developer, upon the Developer's request, with a statement ( "Certificate of
Performance ") evidencing said completion or revocation and the release of the Developer
from further obligations hereunder, except for any ongoing obligations hereunder. The
Certificate of Performance must be signed by the appropriate agents of the Developer and
the City and be recorded in the official records of Los Angeles County, California. Such
Certificate of Performance is not a notice of completion as referred to in California Civil
Code § 3093.
15. Amendment or Termination by Mutual Consent.Except as otherwise set
forth herein, this Agreement may only be amended or terminated, in whole or in part, by
mutual consent of City and the Developer, and upon compliance with the provisions of
Government Code § 65868.

CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
ADDENDUM IS /MND FOR TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT NO. 773 (SCH# 2008081036)
1. INTRODUCTION
On September 25, 2008, the City of El Segundo Planning Commission adopted an Initial
Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS /MND) for Environmental Assessment No. 773 (Aloft
Hotel — EA 773 1CUP 07 -07, 101 Continental Boulevard). The proposal consisted of the
construction of a six - story, 61,104 square -foot hotel on a 10.58 -acre site located at 101
Continental Boulevard. The project was approved for a total of 167 rooms at a maximum floor
area ratio (FAR) of 0.80.
Since then, the project has undergone minor modifications. This Addendum addresses
modifications to the site design, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA).
2. STATUTORY BACKGROUND
Under CEQA, an Addendum to an adopted Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative
Declaration is needed if minor technical changes or modifications to the proposed project occur
(CEQA Guidelines §15164). An addendum is appropriate only if these minor technical changes
or modifications do not result in any new significant impacts or a substantial increase in the
severity of previously identified significant impacts. The Addendum need not be circulated for
public review (CEQA Guidelines §15164[c]); however, an addendum is to be considered by the
decision - making body prior to making a decision on the project (CEQA Guidelines §15164[d]).
This Addendum to the previously adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration demonstrates that the
environmental analysis, impacts, and mitigation requirements identified in the 2008 IS /MND for
Environmental Assessment No. 773 remain substantively unchanged despite project revisions
described herein, and supports the finding that the proposed project does not raise any new
issues and does not exceed the level of impacts identified in the previous Mitigated Negative
Declaration.
3. SUMMARY OF ORIGINAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION
As stated above, the original project description analyzed under the 2008 IS /MND for
Environmental Assessment No. 773 consisted of a hotel facility located on a 10.58 -acre site
along Continental Boulevard. The project included a lot line adjustment within the site to allow
for the hotel facility under existing City FAR requirements. Thus, accounting for the lot line
adjustment, the project would occur on a 1.75 -acre parcel within the larger 10.58 -acre site.
The project proposed the construction of 167 guest rooms, a 566 square -foot conference room,
700 square -foot caf6, 1,059 square -foot restaurant/bar area, 579 square -foot fitness center, and
an outdoor patio area/pool. The structure was proposed to be six stories, with a maximum
height of 77 feet, 8 inches.
Site access was proposed via two driveways: 1) primary access from Continental Boulevard to
the east; and 2) secondary access from El Segundo Boulevard to the south. The project
proposed 110 new parking spaces surrounding the hotel facility. In order to meet City parking
requirements, the project included a Reciprocal Access Agreement with the owners of the
Northrop Grumman Tower (immediately southeast of the project site) to allow for the use of 40 J
existing parking spaces, bringing the total number of parking stalls for the project to 150.
MARCH 2010 PAGE 1
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
ADDENDUM IS /MND FOR TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT NO. 773 (SCH# 2008081036)
Landscaping was proposed to include a mix of trees, shrubs, vines, and ground cover
throughout the site. Specifically, palm trees and shade canopy trees of various species would
be planted along the access drives, throughout the parking lot, and surrounding the hotel
structure. Evergreen shrubs and ground cover are proposed to be used for property perimeter
areas, building perimeter areas, and used for screening or hedging around the hotel, parking lot,
and pool area. Evergreen flowering vine and ground cover are also proposed surrounding the
hotel structure, within the parking lot, and along the access driveways.
The original project description resulted in a FAR of 0.80 and lot coverage of 20.8 percent of the
1.75 -acre parcel.
4. PROJECT REVISIONS
The revised project description includes a hotel facility on the same project site and incorporates
minor modifications to site design that would result in a larger hotel with fewer rooms and a
smaller footprint. A lot line adjustment was approved by the City on September 18, 2008,
resulting in construction of the project on a 1.75 -acre parcel. Primary and secondary access
would remain the same, from Continental Boulevard and El Segundo Boulevard, respectively.
In addition, landscaping would be incorporated throughout the site in accordance with City
standards.
The primary revisions to the project description consist of the following:
• The assignment of a new address (199 North Continental Boulevard) to the project site.
The location of the project site would not change; only the street address would be
revised;
• The number of hotel rooms would be reduced from 167 to 152, due to an overall
increase in room size;
• The hotel square footage would increase from 61,104 to 71,005 (primarily due to
increases in the size of hotel rooms, fitness area, restaurant/bar, and additional
conference rooms);
• The average hotel room size would increase from 304 square feet to 344 square feet;
• The building footprint would decrease from 15,885 to 14,744, with a corresponding
decrease in building mass and visibility;
• The number of parking stalls would decrease from 150 (plus 2 loading spaces) to 139
(plus 2 loading spaces);
• A Specific Plan, General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Zoning Text Amendment, and
Development Agreement applicable to the 1.75 -acre parcel would be included with the
project to allow for an increased FAR of 0.92;
• The hotel facility would be constructed to be Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design (LEED)- certified to maximize energy efficiency and sustainability; and
• The project would include a contribution to the City's Recreation and Parks Department
for capital project improvements that will benefit children. J

5. IMPACT COMPARISON
Through the course of evaluating the revised project description, the City of El Segundo
determined that no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts
would occur upon project implementation. A comparison of impacts between the original project
description (as analyzed in the 2008 /S /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773) and the
revised project description is provided below.

The revised project description would result in a hotel facility with an increased square footage
and FAR, but with a reduced building footprint. Based on a rendering comparing the original
structure versus the revised structure (refer to Figure 1, Project Rendering), the revised project
would result in a reduced building mass and aesthetic impact.
The revised project description would include similar contemporary architectural features,
landscaping, and nighttime lighting. In addition, potential impacts related to the short-term
construction process would be reduced in comparison to the original project description.
Although the type of building would be similar to the original project description, the duration of
construction would be reduced from approximately 16 months to 14 months. Moreover, the
implementation of Mitigation Measures AES -1 through AES -5 as identified in the 2008 IS /MND
for Environmental Assessment No. 773 would remain applicable to the revised project.

Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to aesthetics as a result of project revisions.
Air Quality
The revised project involves an overall reduction in the building footprint, and would result in
similar demolition, site preparation, construction, and project operation activities similar to those
identified in the previously analyzed project description. Additionally, the revised project
description would result in a reduction of hotel rooms from 167 to 152, thereby resulting in a
lower trip generation and reduced operational air quality emissions. As a result, construction -
related and project -level long -term operational air quality impacts would be similar to those
identified for the original project description. However, since the methodology and significance
criteria for the analysis of greenhouse gas emissions has changed since the preparation of the
2008 IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773, an updated analysis has been provided
below.
The previous methodology for the analysis of greenhouse gas emissions utilized in the 2008
IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 included the quantification of CO2 emissions
from construction and operations (indirect, area, and mobile sources) of the project. At the time
of the preparation of the 2008 IS /MND, a greenhouse gas threshold of significance was not
applied to the project emissions. The current methodology for a quantitative threshold of
significance for greenhouse gas emissions utilizes a non -zero project specific threshold, as
i l
MARCH 2010 PAGE 4
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
ADDENDUM IS /MND FOR TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT NO. 773 (SCH# 2008081036)
recommended by the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association ( CAPCOA).'
According to CAPCOA's Threshold 2.3, CARB Reporting Threshold, 10,000 metric tons of
carbon dioxide equivalents2 per year (MTCO2eq /yr) is recommended as a quantitative non -zero
threshold.3 This threshold is being considered by the California Market Advisory Committee,
whose mandate under the California Environmental Protection Agency is to develop market -
based compliance mechanisms for reducing greenhouse gases. This approach is estimated to
capture over half of the future residential and commercial development projects, and is
designed to ensure the reduction goals of Assembly Bill 32 are not hindered. As seen in Table
1, Estimated Annual Greenhouse Gas Emissions, the total annualized construction, direct, and
indirect operational emissions would be below the CAPCOA recommended threshold.
Table 1
Estimated Annual Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Carbon dioxide equivalent is a quantity that describes, for a given mixture and amount of greenhouse gas, the
amount of CO2 that would have the same global warming potential, when measured over a specified timescale
(generally 100 years).
It should be noted that CARB has also recommended 10,000 MTCO2eq /yr as the "de minimus greenhouse gas
emission threshold" in their Climate Change Proposed Scoping Plan, which was approved by CARB's Board on<

MARCH 2010 PAGE 5
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
ADDENDUM IS /MND FOR TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT NO. 773 (SCH# 2008081036)
Greenhouse gas emissions would also be reduced as the hotel facility would be LEED - certified
and constructed to maximize energy efficiency and sustainability. Therefore, impacts related to
greenhouse gas emissions under the revised project would continue to be less than significant.
As a result, air quality impacts from the proposed project would be similar to those identified in
the 2008 IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773. In addition, Mitigation Measures AQ-
1 through AQ -6 from the 2008 IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 would remain
applicable to the project.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to air quality and global climate change as a result of project revisions.
Biological Resources
The revised project description would be constructed on the same 1.75 -acre parcel as the
original project. The project site is completely disturbed and exists within a fully urbanized area.
No sensitive plants, animals, or habitats exist on -site. The revised project would not conflict
with any local policies or ordinances relating to biological resources, and no Habitat
Conservation Plans, Natural Community Conservation Plans, or other approved plans apply to
the site.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to biological resources as a result of project revisions.
Cultural Resources
Environmental analysis for the original project description concluded that impacts to historical
resources would not occur, since no existing structures would be impacted by the project. It
was also determined that the project could affect archaeological resources, paleontological
resources, and human remains during the grading and excavation process for hotel
construction. Thus, Mitigation Measures CUL -1 through CUL -3 were included within the 2008
IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 to minimize these potential impacts to cultural
resources.
The revised project description would occur on the same 1.75 -acre parcel as the original
project. However, the revised project would result in slightly less grading and excavation, due to
a smaller building footprint. Although the revised project would result in a slightly lower potential
for impacts to cultural resources, Mitigation Measures CUL -1 through CUL -3 from the 2008
IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 would apply.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to cultural resources as a result of project revisions.
Geology and Soils
The revised project description would be located on the same project site as the original project
description. Thus, on -site geologic conditions related to earthquake faulting, seismicity,
liquefaction, erosion, soil instability, and expansive soils would remain the same. Since the
proposed use and general arrangement/design of on -site facilities would also remain the same,
. 4 .J
MARCH 2010 PAGE 6
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
ADDENDUM IS /MND FOR TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT NO, 773 (SCH# 2008081036)
the revised project description would result in impacts similar to those described within the 2008
IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to geology and soils as a result of project revisions.
Hazards and Hazardous Materials
The 2008 IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 included an examination of potential
sources of hazardous materials on the project site and in the surrounding vicinity. The analysis
concluded that, although sources of hazardous materials are known to occur on and
surrounding the site, adherence to Federal, State, and local standards and Mitigation Measure
HAZ -1 would minimize impacts to a less than significant level. Since the original and revised
project descriptions would share the same project site and be constructed with similar
techniques, the revised project would also result in a less than significant impact in regards to
the potential disturbance of existing hazardous materials during construction.
Similar to the original project description, the revised project would involve the storage, use and
transport of common household cleaning products, in addition to the limited use of pesticides
and /or herbicides for landscape maintenance. The proposed hotel facility would also require the
use of chemicals for swimming pool maintenance. These chemicals would be utilized in limited
quantities on -site, in compliance with Federal, State, and local standards and Mitigation
Measure HAZ -1. The revised project would also result in less than significant impacts during
project operations.
In addition, since the revised project would be constructed on the same site, the project would
not affect any existing or proposed school within one - quarter mile of the site, an airport land use
plan, or a private airstrip in the vicinity. Since primary and secondary site access would remain
the same, no impacts to emergency response would occur. In addition, the project would not
result in any additional impacts related to wildland fires.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to hazards and hazardous materials as a result of project revisions.
Hydrology and Water Quality
The original and revised project descriptions would affect the same project site, consist of the
same type of land use and operations, affect similar project footprints, and would be constructed
using similar grading /building practices. In addition, the same water quality standards (including
implementation of Mitigation Measure HYD -1 from the 2008 IS /MND for Environmental
Assessment No. 773) would be applicable to the revised project.
Thus, the revised project is anticipated to continue to result in less than significant impacts
during the project construction process, upon adherence to National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination Systems (NPDES) standards and implementation Best Management Practices
(BMPs). Moreover, the requirement for a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) to minimize
impacts during long -term hotel operations would remain applicable to the revised project. In
addition, given the developed and impervious nature of the existing project site, the revised
project description would not result in any increased impacts related to off -site drainage or
flooding.
MARCH 2010 PAGE 7
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
VAR ADDENDUM IS /MND FOR TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT NO. 773 (SCH# 2008081036)
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to hydrology and water quality as a result of project revisions.
Land Use and Planning
The revised project would consist of a hotel facility on the same project site as the original
project description, which is designated Corporate Office (CO) by both the City's General Plan
and Zoning Ordinance. Given the developed nature of the site vicinity, neither the original or
revised projects would result in the division of an established community, nor would they result
in conflicts with an established Habitat Conservation Plan or Natural Community Conservation
Plan.
The revised project would require approval of a Specific Plan, General Plan Amendment, Zone
Change, Zoning Text Amendment, and Development Agreement. These new project approvals
would be required to allow for the increased FAR of 0.92, and would be applicable only to the
1.75 -acre parcel to be affected by the proposed hotel facility. The proposed Specific Plan,
General Plan Amendment, Zone Change, Zoning Text Amendment, and Development
Agreement would be subject to City review through the land use entitlement process, to ensure
that development guidelines for the project site are consistent with adjacent land uses. Thus,
upon approval of these land use entitlements, the revised project would be consistent with the
City's land use plan, policies, and regulations applicable to the site.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to land use and planning as a result of project revisions.
Mineral Resources
Since the revised project would occur on the same site as the original project description, the
project would not interfere with the availability of a mineral resource or result in the loss of a
mineral recovery site.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to mineral resources as a result of project revisions.
Noise
The revised project involves an overall reduction in the building footprint, and would result in
similar demolition, site preparation, construction, and project operation activities similar to those
identified in the previously analyzed project description. The revised project description would
result in a reduction of average daily trips along the City's roadway network, consequently
resulting in a decrease in traffic noise levels. The on -site uses would remain similar (i.e., hotel
use, parking, mechanical equipment, etc.), thus creating a similar level of on -site stationary
noise. As a result, noise impacts from the proposed project would be similar to those identified
in the 2008 /S /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773. In addition, Mitigation Measures
NOI -1 through NOI -3 would remain applicable to the proposed project.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to noise as a result of project revisions.

ADDENDUM IS /MND FOR TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT NO. 773 (SCH# 2008081036)
Population and Housing
The revised project would result in a hotel facility similar in nature to the original project
description. In regards to population growth, the proposed project would have the potential to
induce growth within the City due to the need for employees for hotel staff. Based on the 2008
IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773, the original project description would require
approximately 40 employees. Given that the revised project would also be a hotel facility with a
smaller number of hotel rooms and similar amenities, the revised project is not anticipated to
result in a substantial increase in employment. Thus, the revised project would not induce
substantial population growth within the City, either directly or indirectly.
In addition, given the lack of structures on the proposed project site, the revised project would
not result in the displacement of housing or people.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to population and housing as a result of project revisions.
Public Services
As stated above, the revised project would consist of a hotel facility of a similar size /layout,
equipped with similar amenities, and located at the same site. The 2008 IS /MND for
Environmental Assessment No. 773 concluded that impacts related to fire protection, police
protection, schools, parks, and other public facilities would be less than significant. None of the
revisions to the project would result in an increase in the need for these public services or
facilities in comparison to the original project description.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to public services as a result of project revisions.
Recreation
The proposed project could generate demand for recreational facilities through the use of such
facilities by hotel guests or employees. As shown within the 2008 IS /MND for Environmental
Assessment No. 773, as a transient lodging facility the project is not expected to result in a
substantial increase in the use of neighborhood or regional parks or other recreational facilities.
Since the revised project description would not result in a change in land use or a substantial
increase in hotel guests or employees, impacts to recreational facilities would be similar in
comparison to the original project description.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to recreational facilities as a result of project revisions.
Transportati on/Traffi c
The 2008 iS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 included a Traffic Impact Analysis
(TIA) assessing the original project description's effects on the surrounding roadway network.
Based on the results of the TIA, it was determined that the original project description would not
significantly affect roadways surrounding the site (i.e., Sepulveda Boulevard, El Segundo
Boulevard, and Continental Boulevard) upon implementation of recommended mitigation. The
MARCH 2010 PAGE 9
AM6 CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
ADDENDUM IS /MND FOR TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT NO, 773 (SCH# 2008081036)
mitigation would consist of improvements at the El Segundo Boulevard /Continental Boulevard
intersection.
Within the TIA, the trip generation for the original project description was calculated utilizing a
standard multiplier based on the number of hotel rooms. Since the revised project description
would result in a reduction of hotel rooms from 167 to 152, the revised project would result in a
lower trip generation under the methodology of the TIA. Daily trips for the proposed hotel
project would generate a net trip increase of 995 daily trips (98 fewer trips than the 1,093 daily
trips for the previously approved project). The total trips for the morning peak hour would drop
from 87 trips to 79 trips (with 47 inbound trips and 32 outbound trips) and the total trips for the
evening peak hour would drop from 94 trips to 85 trips (with 51 inbound trips and 34 outbound
trips). Thus, the revised project's impacts related to the local roadway system would be
reduced in comparison to the original project description. Likewise, since the overall trip
generation would be decreased, the revised project would not exceed any level of service
standard established by the Los Angeles County Congestion Management Program (CMP).
Mitigation Measure TR -1 would remain applicable to the revised project. However, since the
2008 /S /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 was prepared, a minor modification to
Mitigation Measure TR -1 has become necessary. Originally, Mitigation Measure TR -1 required
that the applicant contribute its fair share towards conversion of the westbound through /right-
turn lane to a dedicated right -turn lane along El Segundo Boulevard at Continental Boulevard.
However, since the applicant would be fully responsible for implementation of this mitigation
measure, a fair -share funding mechanism is no longer required. Thus, Mitigation Measure TR -1
has been revised as follows (deleted text is shown in strikeout, and new text is underlined):
"TR -1 El Segundo Boulevard at Continental Boulevard: The project applicant must
fund and install the re- striping of the
westbound through /right -turn lane to a dedicated right -turn lane and must fund the
manufacturing and installation of the associated signage, as sals+latedsubiect to
approval by the Director of Public
Works Gity Enginee f The City reserves the right at City's expense, as determined by
the Director of Public Works, to remove the dedicated right -turn lane in the future if it
is unnecessary, as reasonably determined by the Director of Public Works, or if a
similar improvement can be substituted."
Similar to the original project description, the revised project would not have the capability to
affect air traffic patterns at Los Angeles International Airport, located approximately 0.5 -mile
north of the project site. In addition, the revised project would not result in any hazardous
design features or inadequate emergency access, since ingress and egress would be provided
by the same access points as the original project description.
As shown in Section 4, Proiect Revisions, the number of parking stalls , required for the revised
project would decrease from 150 (plus 2 loading spaces) to 139 (plus 2 loading spaces).
Despite this reduction, the revised project would still require implementation of Mitigation
Measure TR -2, which would necessitate a reciprocal agreement between the applicant and the
owners of the Northrop Grumman Tower (immediately southeast of the project site) to allow for
the use of surplus parking spaces. Upon implementation of mitigation, parking impacts under
the revised project would remain less than significant.
MARCH 2010 PAGE 10
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
ADDENDUM IS /MND FOR TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT NO. 773 (SCH# 2008081036)
In addition, similar to the analysis provided within the 2008 IS /MND for Environmental
Assessment No. 773, the revised project would not conflict with policies, plans, or programs
supporting alternative transportation. The project area is served by multiple forms of bus and
rail transport, and the revised project would not result in a conflict with any polices or facilities
related to alternative transportation.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to transportation and traffic as a result of project revisions.
Utilities and Services Systems
As stated above, the revised project would consist of a hotel facility of a similar size /layout,
equipped with similar amenities, and located at the same site as the original project description.
The 2008 IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 concluded that impacts related to fire
protection, police protection, schools, parks, and other public facilities would be less than
significant. Mitigation measures were required for impacts related to sewer and solid waste
service.
Given the similar nature of the revised project description, none of the project revisions would
result in a substantial increase in the need for these public services or facilities in comparison to
the original project description. In addition, two mitigation measures (UTL -1 and UTL -5) within
the 2008 IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 have either been completed or
deemed unnecessary and are no longer required. Mitigation Measure UTL -1 has previously
been satisfied upon completion of a Sewer Flow Study for the proposed project. Based upon
the findings of the Sewer Flow Study, Mitigation Measure UTL -5 has been determined to be
unnecessary. Thus, the following revisions related to wastewater utility mitigation are required:
the develepmeRt.
UTL -21 Before the City issues building permits, the project site must be annexed into the Los
Angeles County Sanitation District No. 5.
UTL -32 Before the City issues building permits, the project applicant must obtain a sewer
connection permit from the Los Angeles County Sanitation District to obtain sanitary
sewer service. Prior to obtaining a connection permit, the applicant must also pay a
sewer connection fee as determined by the County Sanitation District of Los Angeles
County.
UTL -43 Before the City issues building permits, the project applicant must provide additional
local sewer infrastructure as necessary to connect the project site to existing sewer
infrastructure. This provision must be coordinated with the project applicant and may
be the partial responsibility of the applicant, as determined by the City.

r ,_
UTL -75 Before the City issues building permits, the project applicant must submit the Final
Working Drawings to the City's Planning and Building Safety Department and the
Public Works Department for review and approval."
Mitigation Measure UTL -7 would remain applicable to the revised project. However, since the
2008 IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No. 773 was prepared, a minor modification to
Mitigation Measure UTL -7 has become necessary. Originally, Mitigation Measure UTL -7
required that the applicant work with the City's franchise hauler, Consolidated Disposal, to
coordinate recycling efforts for the development. However, the City's franchise hauler,
Consolidated Disposal, does not have a contract to provide commercial hauling services.
Therefore, Mitigation Measure UTL -7 has been revised as follows (deleted text is shown in
strikeout, and new text is underlined):
"UTL -7 ,
The applicant must work with a
commercial hauler licensed to operate in the City of El Segundo, to coordinate recycling efforts
for the entire development."
All other mitigation measures related to solid waste would remain applicable to the project.
Thus, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts would occur
in regards to utilities and service systems as a result of project revisions.
Mandatory Findings of Significance
Based on the impact comparison provided above, the revised project would not result in new
significant impacts or a substantial increase in the severity of impacts under CEQA. Thus, in
comparison to the analysis provided in the 2008 IS /MND for Environmental Assessment No.
773, the revised project would not: a) result in increased impacts related to degradation of the
environment or impacts to biological or cultural resources; b) result in increased cumulative
impacts; or c) result in increased substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or
indirectly.
6. CONCLUSION
§15073.5 of the CEQA Guidelines states that a lead agency is required to recirculate an
IS /MND when a document has been substantially revised after public notice of its availability
has previously been given. However, recirculation is not required when new information is
added to the IS /MND, which merely clarifies, amplifies, or makes insignificant modifications to
the document. The project revisions described above in Section 4, Proiect Revisions do not
result in significant modifications. In addition, the impact comparison provided above
demonstrates that no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity of impacts
would occur upon implementation of the revised project description. Therefore, no recirculation
is required.
While the proposed changes do not warrant the recirculation of the IS /MND, this document
should be made part of the administrative record and transmitted to the City's decision - making
body along with the previously- approved IS /MND to provide clarification regarding proposed
changes outlined above and to comply with CEQA Guidelines §15164.

199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan
City Of El Segundo
1.0 SUMMARY
This Specific Plan has been prepared to allow
flexibility in the development of a hotel or
development of other uses consistent with the
adjacent zoning district. The 199 North Continental
Boulevard Specific Plan provides detailed text and
exhibits which describes the hotel project and the
improvements that are envisioned to occur within
the project. The Specific Plan will guide the build -
out of the project site in a manner that is consistent
with City and State policies and standards and
ensures that the project is developed in a
coordinated manner.
1.1 PURPOSE AND AUTHORITY
The purpose of this Plan is to provide a foundation
for the proposed land uses on the subject property
through the application of regulations, standards
and design guidelines. The 199 North Continental
Boulevard Specific Plan provides text and exhibits
which describe the proposed land uses and
associated guidelines.
This Specific Plan must be adopted in accordance
with the provisions of Government Code §§ 65450
through 65457, which grants local governments
authority to prepare Specific Plans of development
for any area regulated by a General Plan.
Government Code §§ 65450 through 65454
establishes the authority to adopt a Specific Plan,
identifies the required contents of a Specific Plan,
and mandates consistency with the General Plan.
According to Government Code § 65450, a Specific
Plan must include text and a diagram or diagrams
which specify all of the following in detail:
The distribution, location, and extent of the
uses of land, including open space within
the area covered by the plan.
The proposed distribution, location, extent,
and intensity of major components of public
and private transportation, sewage, water,
drainage, solid waste disposal, energy and
other essential facilities proposed to be
located within the land area covered by the
plan and needed to support the land uses
described in the plan.
Standards and criteria by which
development will proceed, and standards for
the conservation, development, and
utilization of natural resources, where
applicable.
A program of implementation measures
including regulations, programs, public
works projects and financing measures
necessary to carry out the above items.
A discussion of the relationship of the
Specific Plan to the General Plan.
A thorough review of the El Segundo General Plan
shows that this Specific Plan is compatible and
consistent with the goals and policies outlined in
the General Plan. This Specific Plan will further the
goals and policies of the General Plan.
This Specific Plan was prepared to provide the
essential relationship between the policies of the El
Segundo General Plan and actual development in
the project area. By functioning as a regulatory
document, the 199 North Continental Boulevard
Specific Plan provides a means of implementing
and detailing the City of El Segundo's General
Plan. All future development plans and
entitlements within the Specific Plan boundaries
must be consistent with the standards set forth in
this document.

1.2 PROJECT HISTORY
On September 25, 2008, the El Segundo Planning
Commission approved Environmental Assessment
No. EA 733 and Conditional Use Permit No. 07 -07
to allow construction of a six - story, 61,104 square -
foot hotel on a 1.75 acre site located at 101
Continental Boulevard (new address of 199 North
Continental Boulevard), at the northwest corner of
El Segundo Boulevard and Continental Boulevard,
immediately north and adjacent to the Northrop
Tower (formerly the Xerox Tower). The Hotel (Aloft
Hotel) was approved for a total of 167 rooms at a
maximum FAR of 0.80 as permitted in the
Corporate Office Zone.
In August 2009, JF El Segundo Owner, LLC,
submitted a new project requesting minor
modifications to the original approval.
1.3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The 1.75 acre 199 North Continental Boulevard
Specific Plan area is paved with parking and was
originally part of a larger 10.58 acre site which
included the 101 Continental Boulevard property. A
lot line adjustment created the 1.75 acre plan area.
The project consists of a 71,005 square foot, 152 -
room hotel with a 0.92 FAR; essentially a slightly
larger hotel with a smaller footprint and overall
building mass.
Figure 1 Cambria Suites Hotel
The revised project is similar to the original project
and has some additional benefits: (1) the project
generates fewer vehicle trips; (2) provides more
favorable economic development; and (3) provides
better hotel amenities. This Specific Plan
implements the desire to support the revised
project with an FAR in excess of that permitted by
the Corporate Office (CO) Zone. A comparison is
shown in Table 1; differences are highlighted in
bold text.
Table 1
March 2010 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan

1.4 CE0A COMPLIANCE
Under the original proposal (Aloft Hotel), the El
Segundo Planning Commission adopted an Initial
Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS /MND)
pursuant to CEQA § 15070. Since the project
underwent minor modifications, the City prepared
an addendum to the original IS /MND. Pursuant to
CEQA, an addendum to an adopted Negative
Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration is
needed if minor technical changes or modifications
to the proposed project occur (CEQA Guidelines §
15164) and only if those minor changes do not
result in any new significant impacts or a
substantial increase in the severity of previously
identified significant impacts. The addendum need
not be circulated for public review (CEQA
guidelines § 15164[c]); however, an addendum
must be considered by the decision - making body
before making a decision on the project (CEQA
Guidelines § 15164[d]).
An addendum for the revised Project was prepared
and found that the project revisions do not result in
significant modifications. Thus, the Initial
Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration prepared for
the previously approved project located on this
same site, with addendum, will serve as the CEQA
documentation for the 199 North Continental
Boulevard Specific Plan. This environmental
review is also applicable to future hotel
development projects that are processed in
conformance with this Specific Plan, thus requiring
no further environmental documentation as noted in
Sections 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
The document establishes the following
development thresholds shown in Table 2 below.

2.2 CIRCULATION
Access to the Specific Plan area will be via two
driveways. Primary access would be from
Continental Boulevard and secondary access
would be from El Segundo Boulevard. A reciprocal
access agreement is in place with the adjacent
office tower for shared driveway access.

3.1 Constructive Notice and Acceptance.Every person who acquires
any right, title or interest in or to any portion of the Property in which the Developer has
a legal interest is, and will be, conclusively deemed to have consented and agreed to be
bound by this Agreement, whether or not any reference to this Agreement is contained in

subsequent written notice of such transfer and (ii) the transferee has agreed in writing to

by such transferee. The transferee is responsible for satisfying the good faith compliance
requirements set forth in Section 9 below relating to the portion of the Property owned by
such transferee, and any amendment to this Agreement between the City and a transferee

changes to the Project and Project Approvals ( "Minor Modifications ") without amending
this Agreement upon the administrative approval of the City of El Segundo Director of
Planning and Building Safety (the "City Planning and Building Safety Director ") or
designee, provided that such modifications are consistent with the Development
Standards, Applicable Rules and Project Approvals. The City cannot unreasonably
withhold or delay approval of any Minor Modification. The City has the right to impose
reasonable conditions in connection with Minor Modifications, provided, however, such
conditions cannot (i) be inconsistent with the Applicable Rules, the Project Approvals or
with the development of the Project as contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) directly or
indirectly, unreasonably hinder, delay, impede, obstruct, interfere with, or place
unreasonably burdensome or restrictive measures or requirements upon development of
the Project or the Property or any portion thereof; or (iii) impose additional dedications,

those identified in the Applicable Rules, the Project Approvals, or this Agreement.
5.4.2 Modification of Project Approvals.It is contemplated by
City and Developer that Developer may, from time to time, pursuant to Section 5.4.1 seek
Minor Modifications to the Project or one or more of the Project Approvals. Any such
Minor Modifications are contemplated by City and Developer as being within the scope
of this Agreement as long as they are authorized pursuant to this Section 5.4.2 and must,
upon approval by City, continue to constitute the Project Approvals as referenced herein.
The Parties agree that any such amendments do not constitute an amendment to this
Agreement nor require an amendment to this Agreement.
5.4.3 Modifications Requiring Amendment to this
Agreement.Any proposed modification to the Project which results in any of the
following do not constitute a Minor Modification but constitute a Major Modification and
require an amendment to this Agreement pursuant to Section 15 below.
(a) Any decrease in the required building setbacks as set forth
in the 199 North Continental Boulevard Specific Plan,
(b) Any increase in the total developable square footage of the

modifications to the Project are considered "Minor Modifications."
5.5 Plan Review.Plans for each building on the Property, including
plans for signage, trash enclosures and screening and landscaping, must be reviewed and
approved by the City Planning and Building Safety Director before the City issues a
building permit, provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in the Applicable Rules, the sole purpose of such review is to verify
consistency with the Development Standards, Applicable Rules and Project Approvals.
The City Planning and Building Safety Director must approve all features which are
consistent with the Development Standards, Applicable Rules or Project Approvals or are
otherwise specifically approved by this Agreement and has no authority to disapprove or
conditionally approve any features or matters which are consistent with or otherwise
which have been specifically approved by this Agreement.
5.6 Timing of Development.In Pardee Construction Co. v. City of
Camarillo ( "Pardee "), 37 Cal. 3d 465 (1984), the California Supreme Court held that the
failure of the parties therein to provide for the timing or rate of development resulted in a
later- adopted initiative restricting the rate of development to prevail against the parties'
agreement. City and Developer intend to avoid the result in Pardee by acknowledging
and providing that Developer has the right, without obligation, to develop the Property in
such order and at such rate and times as Developer deems appropriate within the exercise
of its subjective business judgment subject to the term of this Agreement.
5.6.1 Limitations.
.i�J
In furtherance of the Parties' intent, as set forth in this
Section, no future amendment of any existing City ordinance or resolution, or future
adoption of any ordinance, resolution or other action, that purports to limit the rate or
timing of development over time or alter the sequencing of development phases, whether
adopted or imposed by the City Council or through the initiative or referendum process,
applies to the Property. However, nothing in this Section can be construed to limit City's
right to enforce Developer's obligation pursuant to this Agreement to provide all
infrastructure required by the Project Approvals and this Agreement.
5.7 Term.This Agreement is in effect for a period of eight (8) years
from the Effective Date. However, Developer or City are entitled to one (1) five (5) year
extension by written notice to the other Party before the Agreement's expiration,
provided that the requesting Party is not in material default of its obligations hereunder at
such time. In addition, every approval granted for the Project other than ministerial
approvals remains valid for a period of time equal to the term of this Agreement.
5.8 Issuance of Building Permits.No building permit, final inspection
or certificate of occupancy will be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed from
the Developer if all infrastructure required to serve the portion of the Property covered by
the building permit, final inspection or certificate of occupancy is in place or is suitably
guaranteed to be completed (by covenant, bond, letter of credit or otherwise) to the
reasonable satisfaction of the City before completion of construction and all of the other
relevant provisions of the Project Approvals, Future Approvals and this Agreement have
been satisfied.
5.9 Satisfaction of Mitigation Measures and Conditions.In the event
that any of the mitigation measures or conditions required of Developer hereunder have
been implemented by others, Developer will be conclusively deemed to have satisfied
such mitigation measures or conditions, consistent with CEQA. If any such mitigation
measures or conditions are rejected by a governmental agency with jurisdiction, the
Developer may implement reasonably equivalent substitute mitigation, consistent with
CEQA, to the City's satisfaction, in lieu of the rejected mitigation measures or
conditions. Such substitution constitutes a Minor Modification pursuant to Section 5.4.1
above.
5.10 Moratorium.The Property is exempt from any moratorium or other
limitation (including but not limited to the rate, timing, phasing or sequencing of
development) affecting subdivision maps, building permits, certificates of occupancy or
other land use entitlements that are approved or to be approved, issued or granted within
the City, or portions of the City, except those that are necessary to protect a significant
threat to the health, safety and welfare of the City. Any moratorium imposed tolls the
time periods set forth in this Agreement.
5.11 Performance of City Planning and Building_ Safety Director
Duties.If the City determines at any time during the term of this Agreement that
the duties to be performed by the City Planning and Building Safety Director under this
Agreement will be performed by one or more staff members other than the Planning and
Building Safety Director, the City will endeavor to notify the Developer of such change.
The City must ensure that a person or persons are designated at all times to carry out the
duties of the Planning and Building Safety Director set forth in this Agreement.
6. Developer Agreements.
6.1 General.The Developer must comply with (i) this Agreement, (ii)
the Project Approvals, including without limitation all mitigation measures required by
the determination made pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, and (iii)
all Future Approvals for which it is the applicant or a successor in interest to the
applicant.
6.2 Development Fees.Subject to the provisions of Section 4.4 above,
Developer must pay the development fees in effect at such time that building permits are
issued for the Project. The Developer is entitled to credits against the City's traffic
mitigation fees to the extent Developer has off -site traffic improvements that are required
by the Project Approvals and are included in any subsequent traffic fee mitigation
program adopted by the City pursuant to Government Code §§ 66000, et seq. Such
credits are based upon the actual audited costs and can only be granted to the extent such
improvements are constructed in accordance with all applicable state and local laws. The
Developer waives any and all rights it may have to challenge development fees that are
currently applicable to development within the City and the City's right to amend its
current development fees and/or impose additional development fees. However, the
Developer retains the legal right to challenge the amount of any such amended or
increased development fees to the extent such are not in compliance with the
requirements of Government Code §§ 66000, et seq. as well as its right to receive credits
against such amended or increased fees.

California Government Code §§ 66452.6(a) and 65863.9, the term of any subdivision or
parcel map that has been or in the future may be processed on all or any portion of the
Property and the term of each of the Project Approvals will be extended for a period of
time through the scheduled termination date of this Agreement as set forth in Section 5.7
above.

with the finishing of and/or installation of materials, or fixtures for the Project, when such
purchases were made without sales or use tax due. Developer must indicate the City as a
registered job site location on the State Board of Equalization Tax Return. In such event,
Developer must also obtain a permit or a sub - permit from the State Board of Equalization

limitation the particular retailers, types and/or sizes of structures or businesses, types of
uses, or the owners of any businesses allowed on the Property. The Developer may
request that the City Council consent to any such restriction which consent may be
withheld in the City Council's sole discretion.

expense, in an expedited manner all plan checking, hearings, excavation, grading,

non - appealable by the public.
9.6 Failure of Periodic Review.The City's failure to review, at least
annually, compliance by the Developer with the terms and conditions of this Agreement
does not constitute nor can it be asserted by any Party as a breach by any other Party of
this Agreement. If the City has not completed an annual review in any twelve (12) month
period, Developer may request in writing a Review Letter. If City fails to provide a
Review Letter within sixty (60) days, Developer will be deemed to be in conformity with
this Agreement as of Developer's request date.
10. Excusable Delays.Performance by any Party of its obligations hereunder
are excused during any period of "Excusable Delay," as hereinafter defined, provided that
the Party claiming the delay gives written notice of the delay to the other Party as soon as
reasonably possible after the same has been ascertained. For purposes hereof, Excusable
Delay means delay that directly affects, and is beyond the reasonable control of, the Party
claiming the delay, including without limitation; i) acts of God; i) civil commotion; ii)
riot; iii) strike, picketing or other labor dispute; iv) shortage of materials or supplies; v)
damage to work in progress by reason of fire, flood, earthquake or other casualty; vi)
reasonably unforeseeable delay caused by a reasonably unforeseeable restriction imposed
or mandated by a governmental entity other than City; vii) litigation brought by a third
party attacking the validity of this Agreement, a Project Approval, a Future Approval or
any other action necessary for development of the Property; viii) delays caused by any
default by City or the Developer hereunder; ix) delays due to the presence or remediation
of hazardous materials. The term of this Agreement will automatically be extended by
any period of Excusable Delay.
11. Default Provisions.
11.1 Default.Either Party to this Agreement will have breached this
Agreement if it materially breaches any of the provisions of this Agreement and the same
is not cured within the time set forth in a written notice of violation (the "Notice of
Violation ") from the non - breaching Party to the breaching Party, which period of time
shall not be less than ten (10) days for monetary defaults, and not less than sixty (60)
days for non - monetary defaults from the date that the notice is deemed received, provided
if the breaching Party cannot reasonably cure a non - monetary default within the time set
forth in the notice, then the breaching Party is not in default if it commences to cure the
default within such time limit and diligently effects such cure thereafter. Failure or delay
in giving notice of any default does not constitute a waiver of any default nor change the
time of default. If the City determines that a default may have occurred, the City must
give written notice to the Developer of its intention to terminate this Agreement and
comply with the notice and public hearing requirements of Government Code §§ 65867
and 65868. At the time and place set for the hearing on termination, the Developer will
be given an opportunity to be heard. If the City Council finds, based upon the evidence,
. 91
- 14-
that the Developer is in breach of this Agreement, the City Council may modify or
terminate this Agreement.
11.2 Content of Notice of Violation.Every Notice of Violation must
state with specificity that it is given pursuant to this Section of the Agreement, the nature
of the alleged breach, (including references to the pertinent provisions of this
Agreement), the portion of the Property involved, and the manner in which the breach
may be satisfactorily cured. The notice is deemed given in accordance with Section 19
hereof.
11.3 Remedies for Breach.The Parties agree that the remedies for
breach of this Agreement are limited to the remedies expressly set forth in this
subsection. The remedies for breach of this Agreement by City or Developer are limited
to injunctive relief and/or specific performance.
12. Mortgagee Protection.This Agreement does not prevent or limit the
Developer, in any manner, at Developer's sole discretion, from encumbering the Property
or any portion thereof or any improvements thereon by any mortgage, deed of trust or
other security device. The City acknowledges that the lender(s) providing such financing
( "Mortgagee ") may require certain Agreement interpretations and agrees, upon request,
from time to time, to meet with the Developer and representatives of such lender(s) to
provide within a reasonable time period the City's response to such requested
interpretations. The City will not unreasonably withhold its consent to any such
requested interpretation, provided that such interpretation is consistent with the intent and
purposes of this Agreement. Any Mortgagee of a mortgage or a beneficiary of a deed of
trust or any successor or assign thereof, including without limitation the purchaser at a
judicial or non - judicial foreclosure sale or a person or entity who obtains title by deed -in-
lieu of foreclosure on the Property is entitled to the rights and privileges stated herein.
12.1 Mortgage Not Rendered Invalid.Neither entering into this
Agreement nor a breach of this Agreement will defeat, render invalid, diminish, or impair
the priority of the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust on the Property made in good
faith and for value. No Mortgagee has an obligation or duty under this Agreement to
perform the Developer's obligations, or to guarantee such performance, before taking
title to all or a portion of the Property.
12.2 Request for Notice to Mortgagee.The Mortgagee of any mortgage
or deed of trust encumbering the Property, or any part thereof, who has submitted a
request in writing to the City in the manner specified herein for giving notices, is entitled
to receive a copy of any Notice of Violation delivered to the Developer.
12.3 Mortgagee's Time to Cure.The City must provide a copy of any
Notice of Violation to the Mortgagee within ten (10) days of sending the Notice of
Violation to the Developer. The Mortgagee has the right, but not the obligation, to cure
the default for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of such Notice of Violation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such default is a default that can only be remedied by
such Mortgagee obtaining possession of a Property, or any portion thereof, and such
Ii 92
-15-
Mortgagee seeks to obtain possession, such Mortgagee has until thirty (30) days after the
date of obtaining such possession to cure or, if such default cannot reasonably be cured
within such period, to commence to cure such default, provided that such default is cured
no later than one (1) year after Mortgagee obtains such possession.
12A Cure Rights. Any Mortgagee who takes title to all of the Property,
or any part thereof, pursuant to foreclosure of the mortgage or deed of trust, or a deed in
lieu of foreclosure, will succeed to the rights and obligations of the Developer under this
Agreement as to the Property or portion thereof so acquired; provided, however, in no
event is such Mortgagee liable for any defaults or monetary obligations of the Developer
arising before acquisition of title to the Property by such Mortgagee, except that any such
Mortgagee is not entitled to a building permit or occupancy certificate until all delinquent
and current fees and other monetary or non - monetary obligations due under this
Agreement for the Property, or portion thereof acquired by such Mortgagee, are paid.
12.5 Bankruptc.If any Mortgagee is prohibited from commencing or
prosecuting foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature of foreclosure by
any process or injunction issued by any court or by reason of any action by any court
having jurisdiction of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings involving the
Developer, the times specified in Section 12.3 above will be extended for the period of
the prohibition, except that any such extension cannot extend the term of this Agreement.
12.6 Dis affirmation. If this Agreement is terminated as to any portion of
the Property by reason of: (i) any default or (ii) as a result of a bankruptcy proceeding,
this Agreement is disaffirmed by a receiver, liquidator, or trustee for the Developer or its
property, the City, if requested by any Mortgagee, will negotiate in good faith with such
Mortgagee for a new development agreement for the Project as to such portion of the
Property with the most senior Mortgagee requesting such new agreement. This
Agreement does not require any Mortgagee or the City to enter into a new development
agreement pursuant to this Section.
13. Estoppel Certificate.At any time and from time to time, the Developer
may deliver written notice to City and City may deliver written notice to the Developer
requesting that such Party certify in writing that, to the knowledge of the certifying Party:
i) this Agreement is in full force and effect and a binding obligation of the Parties; ii) this
Agreement has not been amended, or if amended, the identity of each amendment; and
iii) the requesting Party is not in breach of this Agreement, or if in breach, a description
of each such breach. The Party receiving such a request must execute and return the
certificate within thirty (30) days following receipt of the notice. The failure of the City
to deliver such a written notice within such time constitutes a conclusive presumption
against the City that, except as may be represented by the Developer, this Agreement is in
full force and effect without modification, and that there are no uncured defaults in the
performance of the Developer. The Planning and Building Safety Director is authorized
to execute, on behalf of the City, any Estoppel Certificate requested by the Developer.
City acknowledges that a certificate may be relied upon by successors in interest to the
Developer who requested the certificate and by holders of record of deeds of trust on the
portion of the Property in which that Developer has a legal interest.
n
-16- J.J'�
14. Administration of Agreement.
14.1 Appeal of Staff Determinations.Any decision by City staff
concerning the interpretation or administration of this Agreement or development of the
Property in accordance herewith may be appealed by the Developer to the Planning
Commission, and thereafter, if necessary, to the City Council pursuant to the El Segundo
Municipal Code. The Developer cannot seek judicial review of any staff decision
without first having exhausted its remedies pursuant to this Section. Final determinations
by the City Council are subject to judicial review subject to the restrictions and
limitations of California law.
14.2 Operating Memoranda.The provisions of this Agreement require a
close degree of cooperation between City and Developer. During the Term of this
Agreement, clarifications to this Agreement and the Applicable Rules may be appropriate
with respect to the details of performance of City and Developer. If and when, from time
to time, during the term of this Agreement, City and Developer agree that such
clarifications are necessary or appropriate, they will effectuate such clarification through
operating memoranda approved in writing by City and Developer, which, after execution,
will be attached hereto and become part of this Agreement and the same may be further
clarified from time to time as necessary with future written approval by City and the
Developer. Operating memoranda are not intended to and do not constitute an
amendment to this Agreement but are mere ministerial clarifications. Consequently,
public notices and hearings are not required. The City Attorney is authorized, upon
consultation with, and approval of, the Developer, to determine whether a requested
clarification may be effectuated pursuant to this Section or whether the requested
clarification is of such character to constitute an amendment hereof which requires
compliance with the provisions of Section 15 below. The authority to enter into such
operating memoranda is delegated to the Planning and Building Safety Director, and the
Planning and Building Safety Director is authorized to execute any operating memoranda
without further City Council action.
14.3 Certificate of Performance.Upon the completion of the Project, or
the completion of development of any parcel within the Project, or upon completion of
performance of this Agreement or its earlier revocation and termination, the City must
provide the Developer, upon the Developer's request, with a statement ( "Certificate of
Performance ") evidencing said completion or revocation and the release of the Developer
from further obligations hereunder, except for any ongoing obligations hereunder. The
Certificate of Performance must be signed by the appropriate agents of the Developer and
the City and be recorded in the official records of Los Angeles County, California. Such
Certificate of Performance is not a notice of completion as referred to in California Civil
Code § 3093.
15. Amendment or Termination by Mutual Consent.Except as otherwise set
forth herein, this Agreement may only be amended or terminated, in whole or in part, by
mutual consent of City and the Developer, and upon compliance with the provisions of
Government Code § 65868.
-17-
16. Indemnification/Defense.
16.1 Indemnification of Agreement.Developer agrees to indemnify and
hold the City harmless from and against any claim, action, damages, costs (including,
without limitation, attorney's fees), injuries, or liability, arising from the City's approval
of Project, this Agreement, Developer's performance of this Agreement, and all
procedures with approving this Agreement (collectively, "Discretionary Approvals "),
except to the extent such is a result of the City's negligence or intentional misconduct.
Should the City be named in any suit, or should any claim be brought against it by suit or
otherwise, whether the same be groundless or not, arising out of the Discretionary
Approvals, Developer agrees to defend the City (at the City's request and with counsel
satisfactory to the City) and will indemnify the City for any judgment rendered against it
or any sums paid out in settlement or otherwise. For purposes of this Section "the City"
includes the City of El Segundo's elected officials, appointed officials, officers, and
employees.
16.2 Defense of Agreement.If the City accepts Developer's
indemnification and defense as provided in Section 16.1 above, the City agrees to and
must timely take all actions which are necessary or required to uphold the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, the Discretionary Approvals, Project Approvals,
Development Standards and the Applicable Rules. This Section 16 will survive the
termination of this Agreement.
17. Time of Essence.Time is of the essence for each provision of this
Agreement of which time is an element.
18. Effective Date.This Agreement shall become operative on the date the
Enabling Ordinance becomes effective (the "Effective Date ") pursuant to Government
Code section 36937 which is thirty (30) days after the ordinance is approved.

shall be in writing and may be sent by: i) personal delivery, or ii) by deposit in the United
States mail, postage paid, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or iii) by

except as expressly provided herein.
'96
-19-
21. Waiver.No waiver of any provision of this Agreement constitutes a waiver
of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor can any such waiver constitute a

executed in writing by a duly authorized representative of the Party against whom
enforcement of the waiver is sought.
22. Severability.If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of

effective to the extent the remaining provisions are not rendered impractical to perform,
taking into consideration the purposes of this Agreement.
23. Relationship of the Parties.Each Party acknowledges that, in entering into
and performing under this Agreement, it is acting as an independent entity and not as an
agent of any other Party in any respect. Nothing contained herein or in any document
executed in connection herewith can be construed as creating the relationship of partners,
joint ventures or any other association of any kind or nature between City and Developer,
jointly or severally.
24. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is made and entered into for
the sole benefit of the Parties and their successors in interest. No other person or party

executed in the County of Los Angeles, California, and the laws of the State of California

conveyed to the City by the Developer as provided herein can be held and used by the

Account Number(s):
ORIGINATED BY: Bill Crowe, Assistant City Manag
REVIEWED BY: Bill Crowe, Assistant City /Manager
APPROVED BY: Jack Wayt, City
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The City of El Segundo is being asked to adopt a resolution approving of the issuance of tax -
exempt bonds by the California Statewide Communities Development Authority (the
"Authority ") to finance the construction of a solar energy facility for SunEdison, LLC (the
"Borrower "). Such approval is required for compliance with the federal tax laws under the Tax
and Equity Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 ( "TEFRA "), as well as Section 9 of the Authority's
Amended and Restated Joint Powers Agreement (the "Agreement "). This approval will not
constitute any other approval of the local agency. In order for any financing for a private entity to
be completed on a tax - exempt basis, Internal Revenue Code § 147(f) requires that these types of
bonds receive approval from, among others, the "applicable elected representative" of the
governmental unit of the jurisdiction within which the bonds will be issued.
The City will not be under any obligation to repay the Bond indebtedness; the City does not
assume any financial or other liability for its action. Moreover, the City's credit rating is
unaffected by holding the TEFRA public hearing. The Authority will issue tax- exempt revenue
bonds on behalf of the Project. The tax - exempt revenue bonds are payable solely out of the
revenues derived by the Borrower from the applicable Project.
In order for the Authority to issue such Bonds, the City must (1) conduct a public hearing
allowing members of the public to comment on the proposed Project, and (2) approve of the
Authority's issuance of Bonds on behalf of the proposed financing. Although the Authority (not
the City) will be the issuer of the tax - exempt revenue bonds for the Project, the financing cannot
proceed without the City being a member of the Authority and, as the governmental entity
having jurisdiction over the site, approving of the Authority's issuance of indebtedness.
The Authority is a California joint exercise of powers authority, organized and existing under the
laws of the state of California (Government Code §§ 6500 and following), and is sponsored by
the League of California Cities and the California State Association of Counties. Under the
Government Code, cities and counties are authorized to form by agreement a governmental
entity that combines the powers of such entities to perform certain governmental functions
specifically outlined in the Agreement. With respect to the Authority, over 500 California cities,
counties and special districts have entered into and executed the Agreement to become a member
of the Authority, including the City of El Segundo. The Authority is authorized to assist in the
financing of exempt facilities projects.
It is recommended that the City Council approve, by resolution, the issuance of tax - exempt
revenue bonds by California Statewide Communities Development Authority in an aggregate
principal amount not to exceed $1.0 million, to assist SunEdison, LLC.
RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EL
SEGUNDO APPROVING THE ISSUANCE OF RECOVERY ZONE
FACILITY REVENUE BONDS BY THE CALIFORNIA STATEWIDE
COMMUNITIES DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY FOR THE SUNEDISON
CALIFORNIA PORTFOLIO.
The City Council of the City of El Segundo resolves as follows:
SECTION 1: The City Council finds and declare as follows:
A. The California Statewide Communities Development Authority (the
"Authority ") is authorized pursuant to Government Code §§ 6500, et seq.
and the terms of a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement, dated June 1,
1988 (the "Agreement "), among certain local agencies throughout the State
of California, including the City of El Segundo (the "City "), to issue revenue
bonds for the purpose of promoting economic development in the state of
California;
B. SunEdison, LLC or related entities, requested that the Authority adopt a
plan of financing providing for the issuance of recovery zone facility revenue
bonds (the "Bonds ") in one or more series issued from time to time, including
bonds issued to refund such revenue bonds in one or more series from time
to time, and at no time to exceed $1,000,000 in outstanding aggregate
principal amount, to finance the construction of a solar energy facility
located at the following address in the City and generally known as
SunEdison California Portfolio (the "Project "): 760 S. Sepulveda Blvd., El
Segundo, California;
C. The Bonds or a portion thereof will be "private activity bonds" for purposes
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code "). Pursuant to
Section 147(f) of the Code, before their issuance, private activity bonds
are required to be approved by the "applicable elected representative" of
the governmental units on whose behalf such bonds are expected to be
issued and by a governmental unit having jurisdiction over the entire area
in which any facility financed by such bonds is to be located, after a public
hearing held following reasonable public notice;
D. The members of this City Council ( "Council ") are the applicable elected
representatives of the City;
E. Notice of this public hearing was published in a newspaper of general
circulation regarding the Bonds at least 14 days before the public hearing.
Such public hearing was conducted on such date, at which time an
opportunity was provided to interested parties to present arguments both
for and against the issuance of the Bonds;
F. The Authority also requested that the City Council approve the issuance of
any refunding bonds hereafter issued by the Authority at no time to
exceed $1,000,000 for the purpose of refinancing the Bonds which
financed the Project (the "Refunding Bonds "), but only in such cases
where federal tax laws would not require additional public hearings,
consideration or approval by the City Council; and
G. It is intended that this Resolution constitutes the approval of the issuance of
the Bonds required by Section 147(f) of the Code and Section 9 of the
Agreement.
SECTION 2: The above recitals are true and correct.
SECTION 3: The Council approves the issuance of the Bonds by the Authority. It is the
purpose and intent of the Council that this resolution constitute approval of the Bonds for
the purposes of (a) Section 147(f) of the Code and (b) Section 9 of the Agreement.
SECTION 4: The officers of the City are hereby authorized and directed, jointly and
severally, to do any and all things and to execute and deliver any and all documents
that they deem necessary or advisable in order to carry out, give effect to and comply
with the terms and intent of this resolution and the financing approved hereby.
SECTION 5: The City Clerk will forward a certified copy of this Resolution and a copy of
the affidavit of publication of the hearing notice to:
Justin Cooper, Esq.
Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe L.LP
405 Howard Street
San Francisco, California 94105
SECTION 6: This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The Los Angeles Area Fire Chiefs Association established a goal of creating an area wide
standard for self- contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) to ensure firefighter safety. The
organization acquired grant funding through the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) and the
State Homeland Security Grant Program to ensure that all firefighter positions in the region are
issued a standardized breathing apparatus. The Southern California Area Personal Protective
Equipment Consortium (SCAPPEC) was established to research and develop specifications for a
standardized breathing apparatus.
Under the UASI 2006 program, the El Segundo Fire Department purchased Scott breathing
equipment that met the specifications established by the SCAPPEC and was also the standard
being adopted by the other Area G fire departments. The 2006 grant outfitted Fire suppression
personnel with state -of- the -art breathing apparatus.

In October 2009, the City accepted grant funding through the UASI 2008 program. One of the
funding objectives was to outfit remaining uniformed personnel and reserve apparatus with the
same breathing equipment purchased under the 2006 grant program. This purchase will
complete the SCBA project for the El Segundo Fire Department, ensuring interoperability with
neighboring fire departments.

Exhibit 1
AGREEMENT FOR CONSOLIDATION OF PERSONNEL BETWEEN
REPRESENTATIVES OF THE CITY OF EL SEGUNDO AND THE SOUTH BAY
REGIONAL PUBLIC COMMUNICATIONS AUTHORITY
The City of El Segundo ( "City ") and the South Bay Regional Public
Communications Authority ( "Authority ") are presently in negotiations regarding an
agreement for provision by the Authority of emergency police and fire dispatch services
for the City of El Segundo. Representatives of the City have been meeting both with the
Authority and with Teamsters Union Local 911, which represents the City of El Segundo
unit consisting of the dispatch personnel that would be consolidated into the Authority
should the agreement for services be implemented.
As a result of the meetings that have occurred regarding employment matters, the
City and Authority agree that if the parties enter into an Agreement for provision of
dispatch services, that Agreement shall include the following under the caption of-
Consolidation of Personnel:
Seniority — The ten (10) most senior City employees shall be credited with
Authority seniority equivalent to the seniority held by the City employee
at the time of employment by the Authority.
All remaining City employees hired by the Authority shall have Authority
seniority equivalent to the actual time of employment with the Authority
only. However, upon separation of one of the ten (10) more senior City
employees, one affected City employee shall have his/her seniority with
the Authority increased to represent the time of service with City, as well
as the time of service with the Authority. This process shall be repeated if
a second more senior City employee separates from the Authority.
Former City employee seniority as defined in this section, shall be utilized
to determine City employee eligibility for any and all benefits set forth in
the MOU between the Authority and Teamsters Local 911, where
eligibility is contingent upon "seniority" and /or "years of service with the
Authority."
2. Compensation — At the time of employment by the Authority, former City
employees shall be compensated as indicated in Exhibit A. To the extent
if any that the "longevity pay" amount designated in Exhibit A is
increased over that designated in Exhibit A as a result of increased
longevity eligibility being provided to a City employee prior to the actual
date of employment with the Authority, that increased amount shall be
utilized in determining the increased Authority compensation for any
particular employee designated in Exhibit A. Further, any City - provided
Pagel of 3
394492.1 EL140 -038
.- -b
1001
step increases implemented during said timeframe, shall cause an increase
in the Exhibit A compensation level.
3. Uniforms — Concurrent with being hired by the Authority, each City
employee shall be provided four (4) complete sets of uniforms to be fully
funded by the Authority. However, any City employee separating from
Authority employment within one (1) year of being employed by the
Authority, shall reimburse the Authority for the full initial cost of the four
(4) provided uniforms. This provision shall not apply to any City
employee that separates employment as a result of disciplinary
proceedings.
4. Probation — The Authority maintains a fifteen (15) month probationary
testing period. All City employees who have completed probation shall be
deemed to have successfully completed the fifteen (15) month
probationary period required by the Authority. However, City employees
who have not yet completed City probation, shall be subject to the fifteen
(15) month Authority probationary period but shall be given probationary
testing credit for the number of complete months of service for the City.
For example, if a City employee has completed 3.5 months of
probationary service on behalf of the City, that employee shall be credited
with three (3) months of probationary service for the Authority, and shall
be subject to twelve (12) additional months of probationary service at the
Authority.
5. Background Check — The hiring of each affected City employee by the
Authority shall be subject to a condition precedent that each City
employee shall successfully pass an Authority background check
consisting of a pre - employment medical examination conducted by U.S.
Health Works and an Authority- mandated background examination which
shall be conducted in accordance with the POST Background
Investigation Manual: Guidelines for the Investigator (2009) and in
particular, the "Background Investigation Updates" provisions of the
Manual. In the course of conducting the background examination,
Authority background investigators shall be provided access to
examination of City- maintained personnel files in the name of,each
affected City employee, but the City personnel files shall remain in the
custody of the City and shall not be released to Authority representatives.
Authority representatives shall be authorized to read the City- maintained
personnel files and to make notations of file content for use in the
background process.
6. Vacation/Sick Leave Purchase/Vacation Scheduling — City employees
shall be authorized to purchase at each employee's option and expense, a
maximum of eighty (80) hours of Authority vacation credit and eighty
(80) hours of sick leave credit. Any such purchase shall be made not later
than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the employee's last day of City -
Page 2 of 3? �+
394492.1 EL140 -038
employment. The "purchase price" of each hour of vacation and sick
leave, shall be equivalent to the City hourly rate of each participating City
employee on the employee's last day of City employment. This hourly
rate shall have no application to any term and condition of employment
other than for the purpose of valuing the purchase value of vacation and
sick leave hours in accord with this AGREEMENT, and is not indicative
of the "hourly rate" of City employees once employed by the Authority.
Any City employee providing written notice to the Authority on or before
March 31, 2010, that employment with the Authority will be accepted if
and when offered, shall be authorized to participate in the Authority
vacation bidding process that will be effective on and after July 1, 2010.
The vacation bidding participation is contingent on an Agreement for
dispatched services having been approved by the Authority and the City.
With the following singular exception, use of vacation time off shall be
governed by Authority rules and regulations. The singular exception is
that any City employee demonstrating that on or before February 1, 2010,
the employee has purchased non - refundable transportation tickets and /or
made non - refundable lodging arrangements, shall be authorized to use
vacation in connection with these pre - existing arrangements. If the
subject employee does not have sufficient purchased /earned vacation
credit with the Authority, the vacation shall be unpaid.
7. Employment of City Employees — City employees successfully
completing the above background /medical examinations, shall be offered
Authority employment.

Communications Authority
FISCAL IMPACT:
Amount Budgeted: $2,337,050
Additional Appropriation: N/A
Account Number(s): 001-400-3107-****
ORIGINATED BY: Bob Turnbull, Captain —A=4t 3G.i
REVIEWED BY: Kevin Smith, Fire Chief and Davi d Cummings, ief of Police
APPROVED BY: Jack Wayt, City Manager 9
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
On January 19, 2010, the police and fire chiefs received direction from Council to
commence negotiating an Agreement with South Bay Regional Public Communications
Authority (SBRPCA aka "RCC "), negotiate impacts with current El Segundo public
safety dispatchers and return at a future Council Meeting with an update on negotiations
and /or a proposed Agreement for potential Council approval.
Since that time, RCC, police department staff, and attorneys representing both agencies
reached consensus on language for an Agreement which was approved by the RCC
Executive Committee on March 16th. In addition, the city negotiated an agreement with
Teamsters 911 (representing El Segundo dispatchers) to mitigate impacts to El Segundo
personnel being consolidated into the RCC.
10
C
Police and Fire Staff propose an initial ten (10) year Agreement with the RCC at a cost of
$1,150,000 for the first year with increases equal to the Consumer Price Index but not to
exceed 5% annually. The RCC will provide public safety dispatching, labor costs for
vehicle build out /conversions, maintenance of the mobile in -car camera system,
maintenance of existing radio equipment /sites, and frequency loading.
The communications center budget for the current fiscal year is $2,337,050 and projected
to be $2,532,645 in 2010/2011. These budgets include salaries and benefits of
dispatchers, supervisors and one manager (currently a police lieutenant), costs of radio
equipment maintenance, antenna site leasing and connectivity, modem airtime services,
and fees for the West Covina Service Group software.
Based on these figures, the projected savings for El Segundo are estimated to be
$1,100,000 per year for the first two fiscal years. Slightly greater savings should be
realized in each subsequent year for the term of the contract. Additionally, at least
$1,500,000 currently in the Equipment Replacement Fund for the communication center
would be available to return to the General Fund once the transition was complete. These
projected savings include the elimination of one police lieutenant position.
The transition to RCC would occur over an approximate 6 -month period. Transition
costs are approximately $519,000.00 and would occur over FY 2009/10 and 2010/11.
These costs include the licensing/set -up fees for the Tiburon Records Management
System/Computer Aided Dispatch, and hardware /set -up fees for the City of Hawthorne
network. These costs would be funded from the equipment replacement budget.
It is recommended City Council grant authority to the City Manager to enter into an
Agreement with South Bay Regional Public Communications Authority.

APPROVED BY: Jack Wayt, City Manager
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
In 2009, the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation (LAEDC) engaged and
solicited input from more than 1,000 stakeholders in over two dozen public forums to develop a
comprehensive, collaborative, consensus Strategic Plan for Economic Development in Los
Angeles County. The LAEDC brought together leaders from the public, private, business,
government, labor, education, and environmental sectors, as well as community -based
organizations, to develop a consensus plan for ensuring a strong, diverse and sustainable
economy for L.A. County's residents and communities.
The Plan, which was subsequently formally adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of
Supervisors, includes 52 specific strategies designed to achieve five core goals critical to
ensuring economic success. Those goals are: 1) Creating an educated workforce; 2) Creating a
1 1
business - friendly environment; 3) Enhancing quality of life; 4) Implementing smart land use; and
5) Creating 21" century infrastructure.
The LAEDC is now soliciting endorsements to help lead the region -wide implementation of the
Los Angeles County Strategic Plan for Economic Development. By supporting this item, which
authorizes the Mayor to sign the endorsement form, the City Council will be endorsing the Los
Angeles County Strategic Plan for Economic Development and giving the LAEDC permission to
publicly use the City's name to promote the Plan.
Los Angeles County is made up of 88 vibrant and diverse cities whose population of over 10.4 million would make it the 8th largest
state in the United States. As the entertainment, manufacturing and international trade capital of America, and with over $500
billion in annual economic activity spread across 15 dynamic export- oriented industry clusters, L.A. County's gross domestic product
is larger than Taiwan or Hong Kong. However, despite these achievements, L.A. County and its cities have underperformed in job
creation in recent decades, due in part to the lack of a strategic plan for economic development to guide decision making. In fact,
during the last 30 years, L.A. County has added 2.8 million new residents, yet has only created 457,000 new jobs.
That is why the Los Angeles County Economic
Development Corporation (LAEDC), a private,
non - profit public benefit organization with
more than 200 members representing leading
private sector employers in the County, two
dozen academic institutions, more than 20
cities from across L.A. County, six regional
economic development corporations, the
County CEO and appointed representatives
of all five County Supervisors, assembled and
mobilized a diverse group of public, private,
business, education, labor, environmental and
other community -based participants to shape,
build support around and help implement
the first -ever comprehensive, consensus
strategic plan for economic development
In L.A. County. The plan identifies five key
components - Educated Workforce, Business -
Friendly Environment, Attractive Quality of
Life, Smart Land Use and 21st Century
Infrastructure - that are critical to ensuring a
strong, diverse and sustainable economy for
L.A. County's residents and communities.

L.A. County Strategic Plan for Economic Development Endorsement Form
On December 22, 2009, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors unanimously adopted the first -
ever, consensus Strategic Plan for Economic Development in Los Angeles County to identify and build
consensus around a set of economic development priorities to strengthen the economy, improve the
environment and invigorate communities.
Yes, I /We endorse the 2010 -2014 Los Angeles County Strategic Plan for Economic Development
A consensus plan for ensuring a strong, diverse and sustainable economy
for L.A. County's residents and communities
It's time to implement a strategic plan to guide economic development decision making in a way that
creates more and better jobs, and ensures L.A. County's continued economic growth and success.
Consensus planning process: The Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation (LAEDC)
engaged and solicited input from more than 1,000 stakeholders in more than two dozen public forums
that brought together leaders from the public, private, business, government, labor, education,
environmental, and community-based organizations. Together, they developed five aspirational
goals, 12 objectives and 52 strategies for economic development in L.A. County.
1. Preparing an educated workforce by improving educational outcomes, aligning education and
training programs with business needs, and ensuring that all potential workers are prepared to
participate in the dynamic L.A. County economy.
2. Creating a business friendly environment to make Los Angeles as welcoming as possible to
businesses of all sizes by ensuring that state, county and city governments are customer - driven in
their interactions with businesses; government processes are rational, predictable,
understandable and timely; and that public and private economic development agencies are
supported and adequately resourced to help businesses thrive and create good quality jobs.
3. Enhancing our quality of life to make our communities healthier, more desirable and vibrant
places to live and productively work by improving mobility and reducing traffic congestion,
ensuring public safety, expanding cultural and artistic amenities, promoting healthy living, and
revitalizing low - income communities.
4. Implementing smart land use to provide adequate space for both employment uses and housing
through strategies such as by -right development, infill development, redevelopment and reuse of
obsolete industrial land.
5. Creating 21st century infrastructure to maintain our competitive edge by fixing the broken
infrastructure development, funding and delivery processes, and investing in maintaining and
upgrading Los Angeles County's critical infrastructure.
