INTRODUCTION:
The proposed zone text amendment would amend several sections of the El Segundo Municipal
Code (SSMC)to regulate accessory dwelling units (ADU) in the R-1 (Single-Family Residential)
and R-2 (Two-Family Residential) zones. City staff initiated this amendment to address changes
in state law, specifically California Government Code Section 65852.2 as amended by Assembly
Bill (AB) 2299 and Senate Bill (SB) 1069 approved on September 27, 2016 and effective January
1, 2017.
BACKGROUND:
State Legislation
On September 27, 2016, the State approved AB 2299 and SB 1069, which modified Government
Code Section 65852.2 (Attachment No. 1). The new regulations became effective on January 1,
2017. Under the new regulations, local agencies lost some control over the ability to regulate the
development of ADUs in R-1 and R-2 zones. With regard to newly constructed ADUs, the prior
and new law allows the City to "designate areas within the jurisdiction of the local agency where
accessory dwelling units may be permitted." The new law makes clear that each City must allow
conversions"within the existing space of a single-family residence or accessory structure,"thereby
allowing single family residences to effectively be turned into duplexes and allowing existing
accessory structures to be turned into dwelling units. While the new law does not define the term
"accessory structure." The California State Community and Housing Department (HCD)
circulated a memorandum in December 2016 (Attachment No. 2) stating that "accessory
structures" included garages. However, as is explained below there is legislation pending which
provides a contrary definition.
In addition, the law makes clear that local agencies can no longer exercise local control over
parking for the ADUs, except in limited circumstances where no more than one parking space may
be required. However, for properties within 1/2 mile of a transit stop, no parking spaces may be
required. In El Segundo, every R-1 and R-2 zoned property is within 1/2 mile of a transit stop
(Attachment No. 3).
The City's current regulations which were established by Ordinance No. 13 81 in 2005 (Attachment
No. 4) are more restrictive with regard to the location and development standards for ADUs than
permitted by the revised state law since it does not allow for conversion of single family residences
into duplexes and conversion of accessory structures into dwelling units. Otherwise, Ordinance
1381 does satisfy the requirement of designating an area within the City for ADU's. As a result,
staff initiated the proposed zone text amendment in order to bring the Municipal Code into
compliance with state law.
On February 13, 2017, Assembly member Bloom introduced Assembly Bill AB 494 which would
amend Government Code Section 65852.2 to clarify the meaning of the term"accessory structure."
The bill defines accessory structures as"including,but not limited to,a studio,pool house,or other
similar structure." Because "garages" are not expressly stated in the clarifying language, it is
reasonable to conclude that Assembly member Bloom did not intend for accessory structures to
include garages as HCD suggested in its December memorandum. Currently, this bill is being
considered in the Senate after being approved by the Assembly and staff believes it is likely to be
approved.
14
Planning Commission consideration
The Planning Commission extensively analyzed and considered the new state law and available
options to the City at four public hearings on March 9, March 23, April 27, and May 11, 2017
(Attachment No 5). Staff presented information summarizing the provisions of the new state law
and describing the City's options with regard to regulating ADUs. The Planning Commission also
received oral input and written correspondence from at least 14 members of the public including
owners of properties in the R-1 and R-2 zone.
The input from the public was unanimously in favor of permitting ADUs in the City with as few
restrictions as possible. During its public hearing,the Commission considered the following major
issues:
1. Defining "Existing" in reference to existing space and accessory structures
2. Defining "Accessory structures"
3. Location of new construction ADUs in the R-1 zone
4. Permitting ADUs in the R-2 zone
5. Parking requirements
6. Covenants on existing accessory structures
7. Unit size
8. R-1 lots that qualify for ADUs under the City's existing regulations
At the conclusion of its April 27 meeting, the Planning Commission gave staff direction to draft
an ordinance addressing the issues listed above and to present the ordinance to the Commission at
its May 11, meeting for consideration.
On May 11, 2017, the Planning Commission re-opened the public hearing, staff presented the
provisions of the draft ordinance (based on the Commission's direction), and took further
testimony from the public. The Commission discussed the draft ordinance and particularly the
limited options for ADUs involving new construction. After weighing the merits of giving
property owners additional flexibility to develop their properties beyond what is required by the
new law, the Planning Commission voted 5-0 to adopt Resolution No. 2809 (Attachment No. 6)
recommending approval of the ordinance as presented.
DISCUSSION:
1. DefininL- "Existing"
Government Code Section 65852.2(e) reads as follows:
(e) ... a local agency shall ministerially approve an application for a building permit to
create within a single-family residential zone one accessory dwelling unit per single-family
lot if the unit is contained within the existing space of a single-family residence or
accessory structure, has independent exterior access from the existing residence, and the
side and rear setbacks are sufficient for fire safety. (emphasis added)
The interpretation of the word "existing" in this context is important, because it defines which
structures can be converted into ADUs ministerially without location restrictions. There are two
possible interpretations of"existing" in this context:
15
a) Structures that existed as of the date the statute came into effect, or January 1, 2017. This
interpretation means that only structures that were legally built before January 1, 2017 could be
converted into an ADU. This interpretation reflects what appears to be the clear meaning of the
language contained in the new law.
b) Structures legally permitted prior to the time when conversion is requested. This interpretation
would allow structures legally built even after January 1, 2017 to be converted into an ADU if
otherwise qualified by the ordinance. This interpretation appears to unreasonable stretch the
meaning of the language of the new law.
The first option is more restrictive in that it would allow fewer structures to be converted into
ADUs. In addition,over time as older structures are demolished,fewer and fewer structures would
qualify to be converted into ADUs. This option would limit the possible proliferation of ADUs
over time.
The second option is less restrictive in that it will allow those existing structures and future
structures built legally to be converted into ADUs. This option would grant the right to convert
structures on all R-1 zoned lots equally,without distinguishing between newer and older structures.
The Planning Commission recommends the first (more restrictive) option. However, the
Commission decided to clarify the definition to include all structures permitted and under
construction as of January 1, 2017.
2. Defining "accessory structure"
As indicated above, Assembly Bill, AB 494 (Bloom) is currently pending review in the California
Senate after being approved by the Assembly. Staff believes that the bill has a substantial impact
on the regulation of ADUs and a reasonable likelihood of becoming law. AB 494, as currently
drafted, would define an "accessory structure" as "including, but not limited to, a studio, pool
house, or other similar structure..."
The interpretation of"accessory structure" is important,because it determines whether cities must
allow garages to be converted into ADUs. Although it is possible that a garage could be interpreted
to be a "similar structure" as a studio or pool house, staff is of the opinion that garages need not
be included unless and until the Legislature states such. In reaching this opinion, staff interprets
AB 494 as intentionally excluding garages from the list of accessory structure examples and
considering garages to be dissimilar from the examples listed (studio, pool house, etc.). It seems
that given the obviousness of almost all properties contain a garage that if the legislature intended
for garages to be accessory structures it would have list such in the definition.This interpretation
allows the City to continue to prohibit the conversion of required garages into ADUs
Accordingly, the Planning Commission recommends an interpretation of "accessory structure"
that does not include garages. This interpretation of the new state law means that the City does
not need to approve requests for conversions of existing garages.
3. Location in the R-1 zone for new construction ADUs
Government Code Section 65852.2(a)(1) states:
A local agency may... provide for the creation of accessory dwelling units in the single-
family and multifamily residential zones. The ordinance shall... [d]esignate areas...where
accessory dwelling units may be permitted. The designation of areas may be based on
16
criteria, that may include, but are not limited to, the adequacy of water and sewer services
and the impact... on traffic flow and public safety.
The State law in effect today mandates cities to approve conversion of existing primary dwellings
and detached accessory structures throughout its R-1 zone. However, based on Section
65852.2(a)(1) above, in the case of ADUs involving the addition of new square footage (new
construction ADUs), the City may reasonably restrict their location within the zone.
There are several options with regard to the permitted locations of ADUs involving new
construction (not involving conversions):
a) Prohibiting new construction ADUs everywhere in the City based on findings that are
somewhat similar to but more restrictive than those made under the current ESMC and as
permitted by Government Code Section 65852.2(a)(1)(A). This option would be the most
restrictive approach, in that it would only allow conversions of existing structures to occur.
ADUs involving any new construction would not be permitted. This would be a very
aggressive approach and may not withstand judicial scrutiny.
b) Permitting new construction ADUs at very limited locations in the same manner as in the
current ESMC (Attachment No. 7). The ESMC currently permits ADUs on certain lots within
the R-1 zone where their side property line abuts multi-family zones. Adopting these
restrictions for ADUs involving new construction would result in 35 lots in the R-1 zone
qualifying for this type of ADU. There are a total of 2,537 R-1 zoned lots in the City. This
option is defensible based upon the findings made when the current law was adopted which
relied on a traffic study that demonstrated the fact that residential zones are greatly impacted
by traffic.
c) Permitting new construction ADUs at locations where there impacts to water and sewer
services, traffic flow, and public safety are significantly impacted. It may be possible to allow
more units than allowed by option (b) above, if the City can locate addition properties where
reasonable location restrictions could be implemented that are consistent with Government
Code Section 65852.2(a)(1) and reduce impacts from increased density. This would entail
additional studies and may ultimately may not be possible given the findings made under the
current law.
d) Permitting new construction ADUs on larger lots where they can easily accommodate all of
the required zoning and life safety standards. It is important to understand that parking is not
a required standard given the language in the new law so the option could result in increased
parking problems in the residential zones.
e) Permitting new construction ADUs on all R-1 zoned lots. This option would be the least
restrictive option and would result in significant impacts to water and sewer services, traffic
flow and public safety.
f) Permitting new construction of ADUs only as additions to existing primary dwelling units.
During its discussions on this topic, the Planning Commission expressed a desire to limit the
options for new construction of ADUs detached from the primary dwelling on a lot, because
they have a different visual impact from additions to the primary dwelling and because of the
concern regarding the proliferation of ADUs throughout the R-1 zone and the significant
impacts caused by such as discussed in (e) above. This option would address the Planning
Commission's goal of reducing the visual impact of new detached structures,while at the same
time allowing options for new construction ADUs. It would result in additional significant
impacts but they would be less than those identified for option (e).
g) Permitting new construction ADUs as additions to detached garages (whether existing or new)
not involving conversion of any portion of the required parking spaces. During its discussion,
17
Planning Commission determined that this option had the following benefits: i) it provided at
least some options to some property owners for construction of ADUs separate from the
primary dwelling, ii) it addressed an apparent need in the community expressed by the
testimony from several members of the public, and iii) it may encourage the construction of
additional parking in conjunction with new ADUs while absolutely preserving the parking
required already. Some members of the Commission expressed a concern with this option in
that it may enable the proliferation of ADUs. Thus, this option would also have significant
impacts on R-1 environment but less than option (e).
The Planning Commission recommends options f and g described above because they give
flexibility to those property owners to have ADUs in addition to their option to turn their home
into a duplex or convert an existing accessory structure while not allowing all properties to have a
new structure as an ADU.
4. Permit ADUs in the R-2 zone
As mentioned above, Government Code Section 65852.2(a)(1) states: "A local agency may...
provide for the creation of accessory dwelling units in the single-family and multifamily residential
zones." Therefore, the City may designate areas outside the R-1 zone where ADUs can be
permitted. During its discussions on the topic, the Planning Commission considered permitting
ADUs in the Two-family residential (R-2) zone, but not the Multi-family residential (R-3) zone.
In the R-2 zone, the Planning Commission considered three alternatives:
a) Permitting ADUs throughout the R-2 zone on lots that are developed with a single primary
dwelling and provided that not more than two units of any type (primary or accessory) are
developed on a single lot. This approach would maintain the same density of two units per lot,
but give property owners the option to make the second unit a smaller unit(800-1,200 square
feet) without any additional parking. This approach would affect 332 R-2 zoned lots.
b) Limiting the location of ADUs in the R-2 zone based on lot size. One such approach would
be to allow ADUs only on lots that are less than 4,000 square feet in size. Based on the ESMC's
current density standards those lots can only be developed with a single unit. Allowing an
ADU on these lots would treat them similarly to R-1 lots and larger R-2 lots. This approach
would affect 63 R-2 zoned lots
c) Prohibiting ADUs in the R-2.
The Planning Commission recommends the second option, which would allow ADUs only on
those R-2 lots that are less than 4,000 square feet in size. The Planning Commission chose this
option, because it would afford owners of smaller R-2 lots the same rights as owners of smaller
R-1 zoned lots. Additionally, it addressed a perceived fairness problem identified by the Planning
Commission - that the new state law as mandated permits R-1 lots to develop at a higher density
than certain small R-2 lots.
5. Parking
Government Code section 65852.2(d), specifically preempts the City's authority to require parking
for ADUs. That section states:
Notwithstanding any other law, a local agency, whether or not it has adopted an ordinance
governing accessory dwelling units in accordance with subdivision (a), shall not impose
parking standards for an accessory dwelling unit in any of the following instances:
1) The accessory dwelling unit is located within one-half mile of public transit.
18
[2-5 are not applicable to El Segundo so are not shown.]
Staff reviewed the locations of residentially zoned properties and their distance to public transit
(bus or rail) stops in the City and determined that 100 percent of R-1 and R-2 zoned properties are
located within a half mile from a transit stop (Attachment No. 3). As a result, the Planning
Commission does not propose any parking requirements for ADUs. This regulation is somewhat
absurd in that the City does not have to allow newly built ADU's on most R-1 properties or any
R-2 properties. However, if the City does allow for more than is required by state law it cannot
require that adequate parking be built for the units.
6. Unit size
Government Code Section 65852.2(a)(1) states that cities have the ability to set minimum and
maximum sizes for ADUs within certain parameters. With regard to the minimum size, cities may
set a limit provided it does not make building an ADU infeasible and does not preclude the
construction of an efficiency unit, which is typically the size of a single room. With regard to the
maximum size,the state law sets a limit of 1,200 square feet in general and 50% of the living area
of a primary dwelling unit in the case of ADUs within the primary dwelling unit.
However, the California State Community and Housing Department (HCD) circulated a
memorandum in December 2016 stating that typical maximum unit sizes range from 800 square
feet to 1,200 feet. It also states that a local government may choose a maximum size less than
1,200 square feet as long as the requirement is not burdensome on the creation of ADUs. As a
result,the City may set a maximum size limit that is less than the 1,200 square-foot limit stated in
the law.
The Planning Commission recommends:
a) Not setting a minimum size limit. Given that the minimum size cannot preclude an efficiency
unit, and given that the unit must have enough room to meet the definition of an ADU, there
seems to be no compelling reason for the city to impose a minimum size requirement.
Additionally, setting a high minimum size could encourage larger households which will tend
to exacerbate any negative impacts on the surrounding properties.
b) For attached ADUs, a maximum size of 1,200 square feet or 49 percent of the total living area
of the primary dwelling and the ADU. This is consistent with the parameters set by the state
law.
c) For detached ADUs, a maximum size of 800 square feet. This is consistent with the HCD
guidance memorandum and reduces the footprint of ADUs on a property.
In addition, to the above size limits, all ADUs that involve new square footage are subject to the
floor area ratio requirement of the zone,just as any other accessory structure.
7. Covenants Restricting Accessory Structures from Being Used as Living Spaces
Currently,the City requires a covenant be recorded whenever a property owner builds an accessory
structure on their property. The ESMC requires that the covenant prohibit the accessory structure
from being used for habitation. These covenants are effectively"contracts" between the City and
the property owners, which presents the city with two options:
19
a) The City could insist that the covenants remain in place,thereby preventing any such"existing
... accessory structures"that were built with the required covenant from being converted to an
ADU.
b) The City can decide to release the covenants in light of the new state law.
The Planning Commission opted for the second option. The proposed ordinance,as drafted,would
require that if such a covenant is recorded on the property, and the property owner desires to
convert the accessory structure to an ADU(and the accessory structure otherwise qualifies),that a
release of covenant must be approved by City staff and recorded on the property.
8. Other provisions in the ordinance
- Separate sale prohibited. The draft Ordinance prohibits the sale of an ADU separately from the
primary dwelling.
- Owner occupancy required. The draft Ordinance requires, if an ADU is on a lot, that the
property owner occupy either the primary dwelling unit or the ADU.
- Height Limit. The draft Ordinance makes ADUs subject to the same height limits as structures
in the zone.
- Separate entrance. The draft Ordinance requires ADUs attached to a primary dwelling unit to
have a separate entrance on the side or the rear of the primary residence.
- Short-term rentals. The draft Ordinance does not address this issue, because it will be
addressed separately in a forthcoming ordinance.
- Permit Parking. The draft Ordinance would allow occupants of ADUs to apply for and be
issued a parking permit where applicable.
Findines. ESMC Section 15-1-1 (Purpose, Title) states that the Zoning Code (Title 15) is the
primary tool for implementation of the goals, objectives, and policies of the El Segundo General
Plan. Accordingly,the City Council must find that the proposed zone text amendment is consistent
with those goals, objectives, and policies. Further, pursuant to Chapter 26 (Amendments) of the
Zoning Code, in order to recommend City Council approval of the proposed amendments,the City
Council must find that the amendments are necessary to carry out the general purpose of Zoning
Code. The purpose of this Title,as specified above,is to serve the public health,safety,and general
welfare and to provide economic and social advantages resulting from an orderly planned use of
land resources. As stated in the proposed ordinance, Planning staff believes that the City Council
can make the necessary findings to approve the amendments.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
This action is statutorily exempt from further environmental review under the California
Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§21000, et seq., "CEQA") and
CEQA Guidelines (14 California Code of Regulations §§15000, et seq.), because it involves the
adoption of an ordinance regarding accessory dwelling units in a single-family or multifamily
residential zone to implement the provisions of Government Code Sections 65852.1 and 65852.2
as set forth in Section 21080.17 of the Public Resources Code, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
§15282(h).
20
RECOMMENDATION:
Planning staff recommends that the Council:
1. Conduct a public hearing;
2. Take testimony and other evidence as presented;
3. Introduce an Ordinance (Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA 16-06) regarding Accessory
Dwelling Units in Residential Zones;
4. Schedule second reading and adoption of the Ordinance for June 20, 2017;
5. Alternatively, discuss and take other possible action related to this item.

dwelling units in single-family and multifamily residential zones. The
ordinance shall do all of the following:
(A) Designate areas within the jurisdiction of the local agency where
accessory dwelling units may be permitted. The designation of
areas may be based on criteria, that may include, but are not
limited to, the adequacy of water and sewer services and the
impact of accessory dwelling units on traffic flow and public safety.
(g)
(i) Impose standards on accessory dwelling units that include,
but are not limited to, parking, height, setback, lot coverage,
landscape, architectural review, maximum size of a unit, and

(ii) Notwithstanding clause (i), a local agency may reduce or
eliminate parking requirements for any accessory dwelling
unit located within its jurisdiction.
(C) Provide that accessory dwelling units do not exceed the allowable
density for the lot upon which the accessory dwelling unit is
located, and that accessory dwelling units are a residential use that
is consistent with the existing general plan and zoning designation
for the lot.
(D) Require the accessory dwelling units to comply with all of the
following:
(i) The unit is not intended for sale separate from the primary
residence and may be rented.
(ii) The lot is zoned for single-family or multifamily use and

dwelling or located within the living area of the existing
dwelling or detached from the existing dwelling and located
on the same lot as the existing dwelling.
1
22
(iv) The increased floor area of an attached accessory dwelling
unit shall not exceed 50 percent of the existing living area,
with a maximum increase in floor area of 1,200 square feet.
(v) The total area of floorspace for a detached accessory
dwelling unit shall not exceed 1,200 square feet.
(vi) No passageway shall be required in conjunction with the
construction of an accessory dwelling unit.

dwellings, as appropriate.
(ix) Approval by the local health officer where a private sewage
disposal system is being used, if required.
(x)
(I) Parking requirements for accessory dwelling units shall
not exceed one parking space per unit or per
bedroom. These spaces may be provided as tandem
parking on an existing driveway.
(II) Offstreet parking shall be permitted in setback areas
in locations determined by the local agency or through
tandem parking, unless specific findings are made that
parking in setback areas or tandem parking is not
feasible based upon specific site or regional
topographical or fire and life safety conditions, or that
it is not permitted anywhere else in the jurisdiction.
(III) This clause shall not apply to a unit that is described
in subdivision (d).
(xi) When a garage, carport, or covered parking structure is
demolished in conjunction with the construction of an
accessory dwelling unit, and the local agency requires that
those offstreet parking spaces be replaced, the replacement
spaces may be located in any configuration on the same lot
as the accessory dwelling unit, including, but not limited to,
as covered spaces, uncovered spaces, or tandem spaces, or
by the use of mechanical automobile parking lifts. This clause
shall not apply to a unit that is described in subdivision (d).
(2) The ordinance shall not be considered in the application of any local
ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth.
(3) When a local agency receives its first application on or after July 1, 2003,
for a permit pursuant to this subdivision, the application shall be
2
23
considered ministerially without discretionary review or a hearing,
notwithstanding Section 65901 or 65906 or any local ordinance regulating
the issuance of variances or special use permits, within 120 days after
receiving the application. A local agency may charge a fee to reimburse it
for costs that it incurs as a result of amendments to this paragraph
enacted during the 2001-02 Regular Session of the Legislature, including
the costs of adopting or amending any ordinance that provides for the
creation of an accessory dwelling unit.
(4) An existing ordinance governing the creation of an accessory dwelling
unit by a local agency or an accessory dwelling ordinance adopted by a
local agency subsequent to the effective date of the act adding this
paragraph shall provide an approval process that includes only ministerial
provisions for the approval of accessory dwelling units and shall not
include any discretionary processes, provisions, or requirements for those
units, except as otherwise provided in this subdivision. In the event that a
local agency has an existing accessory dwelling unit ordinance that fails to
meet the requirements of this subdivision, that ordinance shall be null and
void upon the effective date of the act adding this paragraph and that
agency shall thereafter apply the standards established in this subdivision
for the approval of accessory dwelling units, unless and until the agency
adopts an ordinance that complies with this section.
(5) No other local ordinance, policy, or regulation shall be the basis for the
denial of a building permit or a use permit under this subdivision.
(6) This subdivision establishes the maximum standards that local agencies
shall use to evaluate a proposed accessory dwelling unit on a lot zoned for
residential use that contains an existing single-family dwelling. No
additional standards, other than those provided in this subdivision, shall
be utilized or imposed, except that a local agency may require an
applicant for a permit issued pursuant to this subdivision to be an owner-
occupant or that the property be used for rentals of terms longer than 30
days.
(7) A local agency may amend its zoning ordinance or general plan to
incorporate the policies, procedures, or other provisions applicable to the
creation of an accessory dwelling unit if these provisions are consistent
with the limitations of this subdivision.
(8) An accessory dwelling unit that conforms to this subdivision shall be
deemed to be an accessory use or an accessory building and shall not be
considered to exceed the allowable density for the lot upon which it is
located, and shall be deemed to be a residential use that is consistent
with the existing general plan and zoning designations for the lot. The
accessory dwelling unit shall not be considered in the application of any
local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth.
(b) When a local agency that has not adopted an ordinance governing accessory
dwelling units in accordance with subdivision (a) receives its first application on
or after July 1, 1983, for a permit to create an accessory dwelling unit pursuant
3
24
to this subdivision, the local agency shall accept the application and approve or
disapprove the application ministerially without discretionary review pursuant to
subdivision (a) within 120 days after receiving the application.
(c) A local agency may establish minimum and maximum unit size requirements for
both attached and detached accessory dwelling units. No minimum or maximum
size for an accessory dwelling unit, or size based upon a percentage of the
existing dwelling, shall be established by ordinance for either attached or
detached dwellings that does not permit at least an efficiency unit to be
constructed in compliance with local development standards. Accessory dwelling
units shall not be required to provide fire sprinklers if they are not required for
the primary residence.
(d) Notwithstanding any other law, a local agency, whether or not it has adopted an
ordinance governing accessory dwelling units in accordance with subdivision (a),
shall not impose parking standards for an accessory dwelling unit in any of the
following instances:
(1) The accessory dwelling unit is located within one-half mile of public
transit.
(2) The accessory dwelling unit is located within an architecturally and
historically significant historic district.
(3) The accessory dwelling unit is part of the existing primary residence or an
existing accessory structure.
(4) When on-street parking permits are required but not offered to the
occupant of the accessory dwelling unit.
(5) When there is a car share vehicle located within one block of the
accessory dwelling unit.
(e) Notwithstanding subdivisions (a) to (d), inclusive, a local agency shall
ministerially approve an application for a building permit to create within a
single-family residential zone one accessory dwelling unit per single-family lot if
the unit is contained within the existing space of a single-family residence or
accessory structure, has independent exterior access from the existing
residence, and the side and rear setbacks are sufficient for fire safety. Accessory
dwelling units shall not be required to provide fire sprinklers if they are not
required for the primary residence.
(f)
(1) Fees charged for the construction of accessory dwelling units shall be
determined in accordance with Chapter 5 (commencing with Section
66000) and Chapter 7 (commencing with Section 66012).
(2) Accessory dwelling units shall not be considered new residential uses for
the purposes of calculating local agency connection fees or capacity
charges for utilities, including water and sewer service.
(A) For an accessory dwelling unit described in subdivision (e), a local
agency shall not require the applicant to install a new or separate
4
25
utility connection directly between the accessory dwelling unit and
the utility or impose a related connection fee or capacity charge.
(B) For an accessory dwelling unit that is not described in subdivision
(e), a local agency may require a new or separate utility connection
directly between the accessory dwelling unit and the utility.
Consistent with Section 66013, the connection may be subject to a
connection fee or capacity charge that shall be proportionate to the
burden of the proposed accessory dwelling unit, based upon either
its size or the number of its plumbing fixtures, upon the water or
sewer system. This fee or charge shall not exceed the reasonable
cost of providing this service.
(g) This section does not limit the authority of local agencies to adopt less
restrictive requirements for the creation of an accessory dwelling unit.
(h) Local agencies shall submit a copy of the ordinance adopted pursuant to
subdivision (a) to the Department of Housing and Community Development
within 60 days after adoption.
(i) As used in this section, the following terms mean:
(1) "Living area" means the interior habitable area of a dwelling unit
including basements and attics but does not include a garage or any
accessory structure.
(2) "Local agency" means a city, county, or city and county, whether general
law or chartered.
(3) For purposes of this section, "neighborhood" has the same meaning as
set forth in Section 65589.5.
(4) "Accessory dwelling unit" means an attached or a detached residential
dwelling unit which provides complete independent living facilities for one
or more persons. It shall include permanent provisions for living, sleeping,
eating, cooking, and sanitation on the same parcel as the single-family
dwelling is situated. An accessory dwelling unit also includes the
following:
(A) An efficiency unit, as defined in Section 17958.1 of Health and
Safety Code.
(B) A manufactured home, as defined in Section 18007 of the Health
and Safety Code.
(5) "Passageway" means a pathway that is unobstructed clear to the sky and
extends from a street to one entrance of the accessory dwelling unit.
(j) Nothing in this section shall be construed to supersede or in any way alter or
lessen the effect or application of the California Coastal Act (Division 20
(commencing with Section 30000) of the Public Resources Code), except that
the local government shall not be required to hold public hearings for coastal
development permit applications for accessory dwelling units.
(Amended by Stats. 2016, Ch. 735, Sec. 1.5. Effective January 1, 2017.)

Understanding Accessory Dwelling Units
and Their Importance
California's housing production is not keeping pace with
demand. In the last decade less than half of the needed
housing was built. This lack of housing is impacting
affordability with average housing costs in California
exceeding the rest of the nation. As affordability
U,E moo becomes more problematic, people drive longer distances
between a home that is affordable and where they work,
or double up to share space, both of which reduces
,-� quality of life and produces negative environmental
.., impacts.
.q{KRg�'SLT F
Beyond traditional market-rate construction and
government subsidized production and preservation there
Courtesy of Karen Chapple,UC Berkeley are alternative housing models and emerging trends that can
contribute to addressing home supply and affordability in California.
One such example gaining popularity are Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) (also referred to as second units, in-
law units, or granny flats).
What is an ADU
An ADU is a secondary dwelling unit with complete independent living facilities for one or more persons
and generally takes three forms:
• Detached: The unit is separated from the primary structure
• Attached: The unit is attached to the primary structure
• Repurposed Existing Space: Space(e.g., master bedroom)within the primary residence is
converted into an independent living unit
• Junior Accessory Dwelling Units: Similar to repurposed space with various streamlining measures
ADUs offer benefits that address common development barriers such as affordability and environmental quality.
ADUs are an affordable type of home to construct in California because they do not require paying for land, major
new infrastructure, structured parking, or elevators. ADUs are built with cost-effective one-or two-story wood frame
construction, which is significantly less costly than homes in new multifamily infill buildings. ADUs can provide as
much living space as the new apartments and condominiums being built in new infill buildings and serve very well
for couples, small families, friends, young people, and seniors.
ADUs are a different form of housing that can help California meet its diverse housing needs. Young professionals
and students desire to live in areas close to jobs, amenities, and schools. The problem with high-opportunity areas
is that space is limited. There is a shortage of affordable units and the units that are available can be out of reach
for many people. To address the needs of individuals or small families seeking living quarters in high opportunity
areas, homeowners can construct an ADU on their lot or convert an underutilized part of their home like a garage
1
30
into a junior ADU. This flexibility benefits not just people renting the space, but the homeowner as well, who can
receive an extra monthly rent income.
ADUs give homeowners the flexibility to share independent living areas with family members and others, allowing
seniors to age in place as they require more care and helping extended families to be near one another while
maintaining privacy.
Relaxed regulations and the cost to build an ADU make it a very feasible affordable housing option. A UC Berkeley
study noted that one unit of affordable housing in the Bay Area costs about$500,000 to develop whereas an ADU
can range anywhere up to$200,000 on the expensive end in high housing cost areas.
ADUs are a critical form of infill-development that can be affordable and offer important housing choices within
existing neighborhoods. ADUs are a powerful type of housing unit because they allow for different uses, and serve
different populations ranging from students and young professionals to young families, people with disabilities and
senior citizens. By design, ADUs are more affordable and can provide additional income to homeowners. Local
governments can encourage the development of ADUs and improve access to jobs, education and services for
many Californians.

Summary of Recent Changes to ADU Lavers
-' The California legislature found and declared that,
among other things, allowing accessory dwelling units
(ADUs) in single family and multifamily zones
a�
.�. provides additional rental housing and are an
essential component in addressing housing needs in
California. Over the years, ADU law has been revised
ir
to improve its effectiveness such as recent changes
in 2003 to require ministerial approval. In 2017,
changes to ADU laws will further reduce barriers,
i' 9-\ better streamline approval and expand capacity to
�
accommodate the development of ADUs.
ADUs are a unique opportunity to address a variety of
housing needs and provide affordable housing
options for family members, friends, students, the
elderly, in-home health care providers, the disabled,
Courtesy of Karen Chapple,UC Berkeley and others. Further, ADUs offer an opportunity to maximize and
integrate housing choices within existing neighborhoods.
Within this context, the Department has prepared this guidance to assist local governments in encouraging the
development of ADUs. Please see Attachment 1 for the complete statutory changes. The following is a brief
summary of the changes for each bill.
SB 1069 (WieckoWSki)
S.B. 1069 (Chapter 720, Statutes of 2016) made several changes to address barriers to the development of ADUs
and expanded capacity for their development. The following is a brief summary of provisions that go into effect
January 1, 2017.
Parking
SB 1069 reduces parking requirements to one space per bedroom or unit. The legislation authorizes off street
parking to be tandem or in setback areas unless specific findings such as fire and life safety conditions are made.
SB 1069 also prohibits parking requirements if the ADU meets any of the following:
• Is within a half mile from public transit.
• Is within an architecturally and historically significant historic district.
• Is part of an existing primary residence or an existing accessory structure.
• Is in an area where on-street parking permits are required, but not offered to the occupant of the ADU.
• Is located within one block of a car share area.
3
32
Fees
SIB 1069 provides that ADUs shall not be considered new residential uses for the purpose of calculating utility
connection fees or capacity charges, including water and sewer service. The bill prohibits a local agency from
requiring an ADU applicant to install a new or separate utility connection or impose a related connection fee or
capacity charge for ADUs that are contained within an existing residence or accessory structure. For attached and
detached ADUs, this fee or charge must be proportionate to the burden of the unit on the water or sewer system
and may not exceed the reasonable cost of providing the service.
Fire Requirements
SB 1069 provides that fire sprinklers shall not be required in an accessory unit if they are not required in the
primary residence.
ADUs within Existing Space
Local governments must ministerially approve an application to create within a single family residential zone one
ADU per single family lot if the unit is:
• contained within an existing residence or accessory structure.
• has independent exterior access from the existing residence.
• has side and rear setbacks that are sufficient for fire safety.
These provisions apply within all single family residential zones and ADUs within existing space must be allowed in
all of these zones. No additional parking or other development standards can be applied except for building code
requirements.
No Total Prohibition
SIB 1069 prohibits a local government from adopting an ordinance that precludes ADUs.
AB 2299 (Bloom)
Generally, AB 2299 (Chapter 735, Statutes of 2016) requires a local government (beginning January 1, 2017) to
ministerially approve ADUs if the unit complies with certain parking requirements, the maximum allowable size of
an attached ADU, and setback requirements, as follows:
• The unit is not intended for sale separate from the primary residence and may be rented.
• The lot is zoned for single-family or multifamily use and contains an existing, single-family dwelling.
• The unit is either attached to an existing dwelling or located within the living area of the existing dwelling or
detached and on the same lot.
• The increased floor area of the unit does not exceed 50%of the existing living area, with a maximum
increase in floor area of 1,200 square feet.
• The total area of floorspace for a detached accessory dwelling unit does not exceed 1,200 square feet.
• No passageway can be required.
• No setback can be required from an existing garage that is converted to an ADU.
4
33
• Compliance with local building code requirements.
• Approval by the local health officer where private sewage disposal system is being used.
Impact on Existing Accessory Dwelling Unit Ordinances
AB 2299 provides that any existing ADU ordinance that does not meet the bill's requirements is null and void upon
the date the bill becomes effective. In such cases, a jurisdiction must approve accessory dwelling units based on
Government Code Section 65852.2 until the jurisdiction adopts a compliant ordinance.
AB 2406 (Thurmond)
AB 2406 (Chapter 755, Statutes of 2016) creates more flexibility for housing options by authorizing local
governments to permit junior accessory dwelling units (JADU)through an ordinance. The bill defines JADUs to be
a unit that cannot exceed 500 square feet and must be completely contained within the space of an existing
residential structure. In addition, the bill requires specified components for a local JADU ordinance. Adoption of a
JADU ordinance is optional.
Required Components
The ordinance authorized by AB 2406 must include the following requirements:
• Limit to one JADU per residential lot zoned for single-family residences with a single-family residence already
built on the lot.
• The single-family residence in which the JADU is created or JADU must be occupied by the owner of the
residence.
• The owner must record a deed restriction stating that the JADU cannot be sold separately from the single-
family residence and restricting the JADU to the size limitations and other requirements of the JADU
ordinance.
• The JADU must be located entirely within the existing structure of the single-family residence and JADU have
its own separate entrance.
• The JADU must include an efficiency kitchen which includes a sink, cooking appliance, counter surface, and
storage cabinets that meet minimum building code standards. No gas or 220V circuits are allowed.
• The JADU may share a bath with the primary residence or have its own bath.
Prohibited Components
This bill prohibits a local JADU ordinance from requiring:
Additional parking as a condition to grant a permit.
Applying additional water, sewer and power connection fees. No connections are needed as these utilities
have already been accounted for in the original permit for the home.
5
34
Fire Safety Requirements
AB 2406 clarifies that a JADU is to be considered part of the single-family residence for the purposes of fire and
life protections ordinances and regulations, such as sprinklers and smoke detectors. The bill also requires life and
protection ordinances that affect single-family residences to be applied uniformly to all single-family residences,
regardless of the presence of a JADU.
JADUs and the RHNA
As part of the housing element portion of their general plan, local governments are required to identify sites with
appropriate zoning that will accommodate projected housing needs in their regional housing need allocation
(RHNA)and report on their progress pursuant to Government Code Section 65400. To credit a JADU toward the
RHNA, HCD and the Department of Finance (DOF) utilize the census definition of a housing unit which is fairly
flexible. Local government count units as part of reporting to DOF. JADUs meet these definitions and this bill
would allow cities and counties to earn credit toward meeting their RHNA allocations by permitting residents to
create less costly accessory units. See additional discussion under JADU frequently asked questions.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Accessary Dwelling Units
Should an Ordinance Encourage the Development of ADUs?
Yes,ADU law and recent changes intend to address barriers, streamline approval and expand potential capacity
for ADUs recognizing their unique importance in addressing California's housing needs. The preparation, adoption,
amendment and implementation of local ADU ordinances must be carried out consistent with Government Code
Section 65852.150:
(a) The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(1)Accessory dwelling units are a valuable form of housing in California.
(2)Accessory dwelling units provide housing for family members, students, the elderly, in-home health care
providers, the disabled, and others, at below market prices within existing neighborhoods.
(3)Homeowners who create accessory dwelling units benefit from added income, and an increased sense of
security.
(4)Allowing accessory dwelling units in single-family or multifamily residential zones provides additional rental
housing stock in California.
(5) California faces a severe housing crisis.
(6) The state is falling far short of meeting current and future housing demand with serious consequences for
the state's economy, our ability to build green infill consistent with state greenhouse gas reduction goals, and
the well-being of our citizens, particularly lower and middle-income earners.
(7)Accessory dwelling units offer lower cost housing to meet the needs of existing and future residents within
existing neighborhoods, while respecting architectural character.
(8)Accessory dwelling units are, therefore, an essential component of California's housing supply.
(b) It is the intent of the Legislature that an accessory dwelling unit ordinance adopted by a local agency has
the effect of providing for the creation of accessory dwelling units and that provisions in this ordinance relating
to matters including unit size, parking, fees, and other requirements, are not so arbitrary, excessive, or
burdensome so as to unreasonably restrict the ability of homeowners to create accessory dwelling units in
zones in which they are authorized by local ordinance.
Are Existing Ordinances Null and Void?
Yes, any local ordinance adopted prior to January 1, 2017
that is not in compliance with the changes to ADU law will be
null and void. Until an ordinance is adopted, local
governments must apply"state standards" (See Attachment
4 for State Standards checklist). In the absence of a local
ordinance complying with ADU law, local review must be
limited to"state standards" and cannot include additional
requirements such as those in an existing ordinance.

36
Are Local Governments Required to Adopt an Ordinance?
No, a local government is not required to adopt an ordinance. ADUs built within a jurisdiction that lacks a local
ordinance must comply with state standards (See Attachment 4). Adopting an ordinance can occur through
different forms such as a new ordinance, amendment to an existing ordinance, separate section or special
regulations within the zoning code or integrated into the zoning code by district. However, the ordinance should be
established legislatively through a public process and meeting and not through internal administrative actions such
as memos or zoning interpretations.
Can a Local Government Preclude ADUs?
No local government cannot preclude ADUs.
Can a Local Government Apply Development Standards and Designate Areas?
Yes, local governments may apply development standards and may designate where ADUs are permitted (GC
Sections 65852.2(a)(1)(A) and (B)). However, ADUs within existing structures must be allowed in all single family
residential zones.
For ADUs that require an addition or a new accessory structure, development standards such as parking, height,
lot coverage, lot size and maximum unit size can be established with certain limitations. ADUs can be avoided or
allowed through an ancillary and separate discretionary process in areas with health and safety risks such as high
fire hazard areas. However, standards and allowable areas must not be designed or applied in a manner that
burdens the development of ADUs and should maximize the potential for ADU development. Designating areas
where ADUs are allowed should be approached primarily on health and safety issues including water, sewer, traffic
flow and public safety. Utilizing approaches such as restrictive overlays, limiting ADUs to larger lot sizes,
burdensome lot coverage and setbacks and particularly concentration or distance requirements (e.g., no less than
500 feet between ADUs) may unreasonably restrict the ability of the homeowners to create ADUs, contrary to the
intent of the Legislature.
Requiring large minimum lot sizes and not allowing smaller lot sizes for ADUs can severely restrict their
potential development. For example, large minimum lot sizes for ADUs may constrict capacity throughout
most of the community. Minimum lot sizes cannot be applied to ADUs within existing structures and could
be considered relative to health and safety concerns such as areas on septic systems.While larger lot
sizes might be targeted for various reasons such as ease of compatibility, many tools are available(e.g.,
maximum unit size, maximum lot coverage, minimum setbacks, architectural and landscape requirements)
that allows ADUs to fit well within the built environment.
Can a Local Government Adopt Less Restrictive Requirements?
Yes, ADU law is a minimum requirement and its purpose is to encourage the development of ADUs. Local
governments can take a variety of actions beyond the statute that promote ADUs such as reductions in fees, less
restrictive parking or unit sizes or amending general plan policies.

Santa Cruz has confronted a shortage of housing for many years, considering its growth in population from
incoming students at UC Santa Cruz and its proximity to Silicon Valley. The city promoted the development
of ADUs as critical infill-housing opportunity through various strategies such as creating a manual to
promote ADUs. The manual showcases prototypes of ADUs and outlines city zoning laws and
requirements to make it more convenient for homeowners to get information. The City found that
homeowners will take time to develop an ADU only if information is easy to find,the process is simple, and
there is sufficient guidance on what options they have in regards to design and planning.
The city set the minimum lot size requirement at 4,500 sq.ft. to develop an ADU in order to encourage
more homes to build an ADU. This allowed for a majority of single-family homes in Santa Cruz to develop
an ADU. For more information, see httD://www vitvofsLiiltacruz.coml departments 1planninq-and-coiaamunity-
develMment/oroaramslaccessory-dwel ina-unit-development-orooram.
Can Local Governments Establish iniMLIm and Maximum Unit Sizes'
Yes, a local government may establish minimum and maximum unit sizes (GC Section 65852.2(c). However, like
all development standards (e.g., height, lot coverage, lot size), unit sizes should not burden the development of
ADUs. For example, setting a minimum unit size that substantially increases costs or a maximum unit size that
unreasonably restricts opportunities would be inconsistent with the intent of the statute. Typical maximum unit
sizes range from 800 square feet to 1,200 square feet. Minimum unit size must at least allow for an efficiency unit
as defined in Health and Safety Code Section 17958.1.
ADU law requires local government approval if meeting various requirements (GC Section
65852.2(a)(1)(D)), including unit size requirements. Specifically, attached ADUs shall not exceed 50
percent of the existing living area or 1,200 square feet and detached ADUs shall not exceed 1,200
square feet. A local government may choose a maximum unit size less than 1,200 square feet as long
as the requirement is not burdensome on the creation of ADUs.
Can ADUs Exceed General Plan and Zoning Densities?
An ADU is an accessory use for the purposes of calculating allowable density under the general plan and zoning.
For example, if a zoning district allows one unit per 7,500 square feet, then an ADU would not be counted as an
additional unit. Minimum lot sizes must not be doubled (e.g., 15,000 square feet)to account for an ADU. Further,
local governments could elect to allow more than one ADU on a lot.
New developments can increase the total number of affordable units in their project plans by
integrating ADUs. Aside from increasing the total number of affordable units, integrating ADUs
also promotes housing choices within a development. One such example is the Cannery project
in Davis, CA. The Cannery project includes 547 residential units with up to 60 integrated ADUs.
ADUs within the Cannery blend in with surrounding architecture, maintaining compatibility with
neighborhoods and enhancing community character. ADUs are constructed at the same time as
the primary single-family unit to ensure the affordable rental unit is available in the housing
supply concurrent with the availability of market rate housing.

38
How Are Fees Charged to ADUs?
All impact fees, including water, sewer, park and traffic fees must be charged in accordance with the Fee Mitigation
Act, which requires fees to be proportional to the actual impact (e.g., significantly less than a single family home).
Fees on ADUs, must proportionately account for impact on services based on the size of the ADU or number of
plumbing fixtures. For example, a 700 square foot new ADU with one bathroom that results in less landscaping
should be charged much less than a 2,000 square foot home with three bathrooms and an entirely new
landscaped parcel which must be irrigated. Fees for ADUs should be significantly less and should account for a
lesser impact such as lower sewer or traffic impacts.
V-/hat Utility Fee Requirements Apply to ADUs?
Cities and counties cannot consider ADUs as new residential uses when calculating connection fees and capacity
charges.
Where ADUs are being created within an existing structure (primary or accessory), the city or county cannot
require a new or separate utility connections for the ADU and cannot charge any connection fee or capacity
charge.
For other ADUs, a local agency may require separate utility connections between the primary dwelling and the
ADU, but any connection fee or capacity charge must be proportionate to the impact of the ADU based on either its
size or the number of plumbing fixtures.
What Utility Fee Requirements Apply to Non-City and County Service Districts?
All local agencies must charge impact fees in accordance with the Mitigation Fee Act (commencing with
Government Code Section 66000), including in particular Section 66013, which requires the connection fees and
capacity charges to be proportionate to the burden posed by the ADU. Special districts and non-city and county
service districts must account for the lesser impact related to an ADU and should base fees on unit size or number
of plumbing fixtures. Providers should consider a proportionate or sliding scale fee structures that address the
smaller size and lesser impact of ADUs (e.g., fees per square foot or fees per fixture). Fee waivers or deferrals
could be considered to better promote the development of ADUs.
Do Utility Fee Requirements Apply to ADUs within Existing Space?
No, where ADUs are being created within an existing structure (primary or accessory), new or separate utility
connections and fees (connection and capacity) must not be required.
Does "Public Transit" Include within One-half Mile of a Bus Stop and Train
Station?
Yes, "public transit" may include a bus stop, train station and paratransit if appropriate for the applicant. "Public
transit' includes areas where transit is available and can be considered regardless of tighter headways (e.g., 15
minute intervals). Local governments could consider a broader definition of"public transit' such as distance to a
bus route.
10
39
Can Parking Be Required '-''here a Car Share Is Available?
No, ADU law does not allow parking to be required when there is a car share located within a block of the ADU. A
car share location includes a designated pick up and drop off location. Local governments can measure a block
from a pick up and drop off location and can decide to adopt broader distance requirements such as two to three
blocks.
Is {off Street Parking Permitted in Setback Areas or through " andern Parking`
Yes, ADU law deliberately reduces parking requirements. Local governments may make specific findings that
tandem parking and parking in setbacks are infeasible based on specific site, regional topographical or fire and life
safety conditions or that tandem parking or parking in setbacks is not permitted anywhere else in the jurisdiction.
However, these determinations should be applied in a manner that does not unnecessarily restrict the creation of
ADUs.
Local governments must provide reasonable accommodation to persons with disabilities to promote equal
access housing and comply with fair housing laws and housing element law. The reasonable
accommodation procedure must provide exception to zoning and land use regulations which includes an
ADU ordinance. Potential exceptions are not limited and may include development standards such as
setbacks and parking requirements and permitted uses that further the housing opportunities of individuals
with disabilities.
Is Covered Parking Required?
No, off street parking must be permitted through tandem parking on an existing driveway, unless specific findings
are made.
Is Replacement Parking Required /'-,,hen the Parking Area for the Primary
Structure Is Used ,r an ADU?
Yes, but only if the local government requires off-street parking to be replaced in which case flexible arrangements
such as tandem, including existing driveways and uncovered parking are allowed. Local governments have an
opportunity to be flexible and promote ADUs that are being created on existing parking space and can consider not
requiring replacement parking.
Are Setbacks Required When an Existing Garage Is Converted to an ADU?
No, setbacks must not be required when a garage is converted or when existing space (e.g., game room or office)
above a garage is converted. Rear and side yard setbacks of no more than five feet are required when new space
is added above a garage for an ADU. In this case, the setbacks only apply to the added space above the garage,
not the existing garage and the ADU can be constructed wholly or partly above the garage, including extending
beyond the garage walls.
Also, when a garage, carport or covered parking structure is demolished or where the parking area ceases to exist
so an ADU can be created, the replacement parking must be allowed in any"configuration" on the lot, "...including,
11
40
but not limited to, covered spaces, uncovered spaces, or tandem spaces, or...." Configuration can be applied in a
flexible manner to not burden the creation of ADUs. For example, spatial configurations like tandem on existing
driveways in setback areas or not requiring excessive distances from the street would be appropriate.
Are ADUs Permitted in Existing Residence or Accessory Space?
Yes, ADUs located in single family residential zones and existing space of a single family residence or accessory
structure must be approved regardless of zoning standards (Section 65852.2(a)(1)(B))for ADUs, including
locational requirements (Section 65852.2(a)(1)(A)), subject to usual non-appealable ministerial building permit
requirements. For example,ADUs in existing space does not necessitate a zoning clearance and must not be
limited to certain zones or areas or subject to height, lot size, lot coverage, unit size, architectural review,
landscape or parking requirements. Simply, where a single family residence or accessory structure exists in any
single family residential zone, so can an ADU. The purpose is to streamline and expand potential for ADUs where
impact is minimal and the existing footprint is not being increased.
Zoning requirements are not a basis for denying a ministerial building permit for an ADU, including non-conforming
lots or structures. The phrase, "..within the existing space" includes areas within a primary home or within an
attached or detached accessory structure such as a garage, a carriage house, a pool house, a rear yard studio
and similar enclosed structures.
Are Owner Occupants Required?
No, however, a local government can require an applicant to be an owner occupant. The owner may reside in the
primary or accessory structure. Local governments can also require the ADU to not be used for short term rentals
(terms lesser than 30 days). Both owner occupant use and prohibition on short term rentals can be required on the
same property. Local agencies which impose this requirement should require recordation of a deed restriction
regarding owner occupancy to comply with GC Section 27281.5
Are Fire Sprinklers Required for ADUs?
Depends,ADUs shall not be required to provide fire sprinklers if they are not or were not required of the primary
residence. However, sprinklers can be required for an ADU if required in the primary structure. For example, if the
primary residence has sprinklers as a result of an existing ordinance, then sprinklers could be required in the ADU.
Alternative methods for fire protection could be provided.
If the ADU is detached from the main structure or new space above a detached garage, applicants can be
encouraged to contact the local fire jurisdiction for information regarding fire sprinklers. Since ADUs are a unique
opportunity to address a variety of housing needs and provide affordable housing options for family members,
students, the elderly, in-home health care providers, the disabled, and others, the fire departments want to ensure
the safety of these populations as well as the safety of those living in the primary structure. Fire Departments can
help educate property owners on the benefits of sprinklers, potential resources and how they can be installed cost
effectively. For example, insurance rates are typically 5 to 10 percent lower where the unit is sprinklered. Finally,
other methods exist to provide additional fire protection. Some options may include additional exits, emergency
escape and rescue openings, 1 hour or greater fire-rated assemblies, roofing materials and setbacks from property
lines or other structures.
12
41
Is Manufactured Housing Permitted as an ADU?
Yes, an ADU is any residential dwelling unit with independent facilities and permanent provisions for living,
sleeping, eating, cooking and sanitation. An ADU includes an efficiency unit(Health and Safety Code Section
17958.1) and a manufactured home (Health and Safety Code Section 18007).
Health and Safety Code Section 18007(a) "Manufactured home,"for the purposes of this part, means a
structure that was constructed on or after June 15, 1976, is transportable in one or more sections, is eight
body feet or more in width, or 40 body feet or more in length, in the traveling mode, or, when erected on
site, is 320 or more square feet, is built on a permanent chassis and designed to be used as a single-
family dwelling with or without a foundation when connected to the required utilities, and includes the
plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and electrical systems contained therein. "Manufactured home"
includes any structure that meets all the requirements of this paragraph except the size requirements and
with respect to which the manufacturer voluntarily files a certification and complies with the standards
established under the National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Act of 1974(42 U.S.C.,
Sec. 5401, and following).
Can an Efficiency Unit Be Smaller than 220 Square Feet?
Yes, an efficiency unit for occupancy by no more than two persons, by statute (Health and Safety Code Section
17958.1), can have a minimum floor area of 150 square feet and can also have partial kitchen or bathroom
facilities, as specified by ordinance or can have the same meaning specified in the Uniform Building Code,
referenced in the Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations.
The 2015 International Residential Code adopted by reference into the 2016 California Residential Code
(CRC)allows residential dwelling units to be built considerably smaller than an Efficiency Dwelling Unit
(EDU). Prior to this code change an EDU was required to have a minimum floor area not less than 220 sq.
ft unless modified by local ordinance in accordance with the California Health and Safety Code which could
allow an EDU to be built no less than 150 sq.ft. For more information, see HCD's Information Bulletin at
htti)://www.hcd.ca.ciov/codes/manufactured-housing/docs/ib2016-06.pdf .
Does ADU Law Apply to Charter Cities and Counties?
Yes. ADU law explicitly applies to"local agencies"which are defined as a city, county, or city and county whether
general law or chartered (Section 65852.2(i)(2)).
13
42
Do ADUs Count toward the Regional Housing Need Allocation?
Yes, local governments may report ADUs as progress toward Regional Housing Need Allocation pursuant to
Government Code Section 65400 based on the actual or anticipated affordability. See below frequently asked
questions for JADUs for additional discussion.
Must ADU Ordinances Be Submitted to the Department of Housing and
Community Development?
Yes, ADU ordinances must be submitted to the State Department of Housing and Community Development within
60 days after adoption, including amendments to existing ordinances. However, upon submittal, the ordinance is
not subject to a Department review and findings process similar to housing element law(GC Section 65585)

Why Adopt a JADU Ordinance?
JADUs offer the simplest and most affordable housing option. They bridge the gap between a roommate and a
tenant by offering an interior connection between the unit and main living area. The doors between the two spaces
can be secured from both sides, allowing them to be easily privatized or incorporated back into the main living
area. These units share central systems, require no fire separation, and have a basic kitchen, utilizing small plug
in appliances, reducing development costs. This provides flexibility and an insurance policy in homes in case
additional income or housing is needed. They present no additional stress on utility services or infrastructure
because they simply repurpose spare bedrooms that do not expand the homes planned occupancy. No additional
address is required on the property because an interior connection remains. By adopting a JADU ordinance, local
governments can offer homeowners additional options to take advantage of underutilized space and better
address its housing needs.
Can JADUs Count towards the RHNA?
Yes, as part of the housing element portion of their general plan, local governments are required to identify sites
with appropriate zoning that will accommodate projected housing needs in their regional housing need allocation
(RHNA) and report on their progress pursuant to Government Code Section 65400. To credit a unit toward the
RHNA, HCD and the Department of Finance (DOF) utilize the census definition of a housing unit. Generally, a
JADU, including with shared sanitation facilities, that meets the census definition and is reported to the Department
of Finance as part of the DOF annual City and County Housing Unit Change Survey can be credited toward the
RHNA based on the appropriate income level. Local governments can track actual or anticipated affordability to
assure the JADU is counted to the appropriate income category. For example, some local governments request
and track information such as anticipated affordability as part of the building permit application.
A housing unit is a house, an apartment, a mobile home or trailer, a group of rooms, or a single room that
is occupied, or, if vacant, is intended for occupancy as separate living quarters. Separate living quarters
are those in which the occupants live separately from any other persons in the building and which have
direct access from the outside of the building or through a common hall.
Can the JADU Be Sold Independent of the Primary Dwelling?
No, the JADU cannot be sold separate from the primary dwelling.
Are JADUs Subject to Connection and Capacity Fees?
No, JADUs shall not be considered a separate or new dwelling unit for the purposes of fees and as a result should
not be charged a fee for providing water, sewer or power, including a connection fee. These requirements apply to
all providers of water, sewer and power, including non-municipal providers.
Local governments may adopt requirements for fees related to parking, other service or connection for water,
sewer or power, however, these requirements must be uniform for all single family residences and JADUs are not
considered a new or separate unit.
16
45
Are There Requirements for Fire Separation and Fire Sprinklers?
Yes, a local government may adopt requirements related to fire and life protection requirements. However, a JADU
shall not be considered a new or separate unit. In other words, if the primary unit is not subject to fire or life
protection requirements, then the JADU must be treated the same.

Attachment I Sample JAUU Ordinance
(Lilypad Homes at h0p.1fivpadhomes oml)
Draft Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADU) — Flexible Housing
Findings:
1. Causation: Critical need for housing for lower income families and individuals given the high cost of living and
low supply of affordable homes for rent or purchase, and the difficulty, given the current social and economic
environment, in building more affordable housing
2. Mitigation: Create a simple and inexpensive permitting track for the development of junior accessory dwelling
units that allows spare bedrooms in homes to serve as a flexible form of infill housing
3. Endangerment: Provisions currently required under agency ordinances are so arbitrary, excessive, or
burdensome as to restrict the ability of homeowners to legally develop these units therefore encouraging
homeowners to bypass safety standards and procedures that make the creation of these units a benefit to the
whole of the community
4. Co-Benefits: Homeowners (particularly retired seniors and young families, groups that tend to have the lowest
incomes)—generating extra revenue, allowing people facing unexpected financial obstacles to remain in their
homes, housing parents, children or caregivers; Homebuyers-providing rental income which aids in mortgage
qualification under new government guidelines; Renters—creating more low-cost housing options in the
community where they work, go to school or have family, also reducing commute time and expenses;
Municipalities—helping to meet RHNA goals, increasing property and sales tax revenue, insuring safety
standard code compliance, providing an abundant source of affordable housing with no additional
infrastructure needed; Community- housing vital workers, decreasing traffic, creating economic growth both in
the remodeling sector and new customers for local businesses; Planet-reducing carbon emissions, using
resources more efficiently;
5. Benefits of Junior ADUs: offer a more affordable housing option to both homeowners and renters, creating
economically healthy, diverse, multi-generational communities;
Therefore the following ordinance is hereby enacted:
This Section provides standards for the establishment of junior accessory dwelling units, an alternative to the
standard accessory dwelling unit, permitted as set forth under State Law AB 1866 (Chapter 1062, Statutes of
2002) Sections 65852.150 and 65852.2 and subject to different provisions under fire safety codes based on the
fact that junior accessory dwelling units do not qualify as "complete independent living facilities" given that the
interior connection from the junior accessory dwelling unit to the main living area remains, therefore not redefining
the single-family home status of the dwelling unit.
A) Development Standards. Junior accessory dwelling units shall comply with the following standards, including
the standards in Table below:
1) Number of Units Allowed. Only one accessory dwelling unit or,junior accessory dwelling unit, may be
located on any residentially zoned lot that permits a single-family dwelling except as otherwise regulated or

ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS: CASE STUD)' (26 pp.)
By United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Policy Development and Research.
(2008)
Introduction: Accessory dwelling units(ADUs) —also referred to as accessory apartments, ADUs, or granny flats
—are additional living quarters on single-family lots that are independent of the primary dwelling unit. The
separate living spaces are equipped with kitchen and bathroom facilities, and can be either attached or detached
from the main residence. This case study explores how the adoption of ordinances, with reduced regulatory
restrictions to encourage ADUs, can be advantageous for communities. Following an explanation of the various
types of ADUs and their benefits, this case study provides examples of municipalities with successful ADU
legislation and programs. Section titles include: History of ADUs; Types of Accessory Dwelling Units; Benefits of
Accessory Dwelling Units; and Examples of ADU Ordinances and Programs.

This White Paper fills two gaps in the discussion regarding compact units. First, we provide a detailed analysis of
the regulatory and other challenges to developing both ADUs and micro-units, focusing on five cities: New York;
Washington, DC; Austin; Denver; and Seattle. That analysis will be helpful not only to the specific jurisdictions we
study, but also can serve as a model for those who what to catalogue regulations that might get in the way of the
development of compact units in their own jurisdictions. Second, as more local governments permit or encourage
compact units, researchers will need to evaluate how well the units built serve the goals proponents claim they will.

This paper begins by analyzing how many secondary units of one particular type, detached backyard cottages,
might be built in the East Bay, focusing on the Flatlands portions of Berkeley, El Cerrito, and Oakland. We then
investigate the potential impacts of scaling up the strategy with regard to housing affordability, smart growth,
alternative transportation, the economy, and city budgets. A final section details policy recommendations, focusing
on regulatory reforms and other actions cities can take to encourage secondary unit construction, such as
promoting carsharing programs, educating residents, and providing access to finance.

This literature review examines the research on both infill development in general, and secondary units in
particular, with an eye towards understanding the similarities and differences between infill as it is more
traditionally understood—i.e., the development or redevelopment of entire parcels of land in an already urbanized
area—and the incremental type of infill that secondary unit development constitutes.

current regulations. The next two sections examine key regulatory barriers in detail for the five cities in the study
(Albany, Berkeley, El Cerrito, Oakland, and Richmond), looking at lot size, setbacks, parking requirements, and
procedural barriers.A sensitivity analysis then determines how many units could be built were the regulations to be
relaxed.

This study examines two puzzles that must be solved in order to scale up a secondary unit strategy: first, how can
city regulations best enable their construction?And second, what is the market for secondary units? Because
parking is such an important issue, we also examine the potential for secondary unit residents to rely on alternative
transportation modes, particular car share programs. The study looks at five adjacent cities in the East Bay of the
San Francisco Bay Area (Figure 1) --Oakland, Berkeley, Albany, El Cerrito, and Richmond --focusing on the
areas within '/z mile of five Bay Area Rapid Transit(BART) stations.

i,Etov/[h s;tro[r civ (22 pp.)
By Jake Wegmann and Karen Chapple. Journal of Urbanism 7(3): pp. 307-329. (2014)
Abstract(not available in full text): Secondary units, or separate small dwellings embedded within single-family
residential properties, constitute a frequently overlooked strategy for urban infill in high-cost metropolitan areas in
the United States. This study, which is situated within California's San Francisco Bay Area, draws upon data
collected from a homeowners' survey and a Rental Market Analysis to provide evidence that a scaled-up strategy
emphasizing one type of secondary unit—the backyard cottage—could yield substantial infill growth with minimal
public subsidy. In addition, it is found that this strategy compares favorably in terms of affordability with infill of the
sort traditionally favored in the 'smart growth' literature, i.e. the construction of dense multifamily housing
developments.

ORDINANCE NO. 1381
AN ORDINANCE ADDING A NEW ARTICLE E TO CHAPTER 15-
4 OF THE EL SEGUNDO MUNICIPAL CODE PURSUANT TO
GOVERNMENT CODE § 65852.2 AFFECTING SECOND
DWELLING UNITS.
The Council of the City of El Segundo does ordain as follows
SECTION 1 The City Council finds and declares as follows
A This Ordinance is consistent with the City's procedures and standards as set forth
in the El Segundo Municipal Code ("ESMC") and State mandates regarding
Second Unit housing
B Amendments to the ESMC affecting second dwelling units complies with the
Land Use Element of the General Plan by providing alternative means of housing
for our divergent and expanding populace
C Amending the ESMC will not have a significant adverse impact upon local or
regional housing needs, but will help to provide a variety of housing types, from
single living to convalescent care, and will aid in meeting regional housing needs
D It is to the public interest to adopt this Ordinance in compliance with Government
Code § 65852 2
E As demonstrated in the recently adopted Circulation Element (EA No 579 and
GPA No 02-1), and its accompanying FEIR (certified September 7, 2004) traffic
volume continues to increase within the City's ,jurisdiction and numerous
intersections are currently at less than desired levels of service, requiring, among
other things, improvements to a number of traffic intersections, street
construction, and other mitigations which are not projected to be completed for an
extended period of time
F There are currently approximately 16,033 residents in El Segundo The residential
zones in El Segundo are located within approximately 84 square miles of an
approximately 5 46 square mile City which results in a relatively high density of
housing in a relatively small area and resulting in intense on-street parking. The
remainder of the City is zoned for industrial and commercial uses which are not
suitable for housing
G To help avoid additional significant traffic impacts, preserve the enjoyment of the
R-1 Zone consistent with the goals and policies of the current General Plan, and
avoid the adverse noise and parking impacts associated with increasing the
density of the R-1 Zone, the City Council believes that it is in the public interest
Page 1 of 6
66
to continue to limit construction of second dwelling units within R-1 zones to the
particular areas that are currently allowed under ESMC §§ 15-4A-2 (A) and (J),
15-4B-2(B), and 154C-2
SECTION 2_ A new definition is added to SSMC § 15-1-6 to read as follows
"'Second dwelling unit' means independent living facilities of limited
size (based upon lot coverage which includes the size of the second
dwelling unit as well as the primary dwelling unit on the parcel) that
provides permanent provisions for living, sleeping, eating, cooking and
sanitation located on the same parcel as a single-family dwelling and
either attached or detached from the single-family dwelling but share no
common interior passageways "
SECTION 3 A new Article E is added to ESMC Chapter 15-4 to read as follows
"ARTICLE E. SECOND DWELLING UNITS."
15-4E-1 Purpose
This Article is adopted pursuant to Government Code § 65852 2 for the purpose
of consolidating, clarifying, and implementing the City's regulation of second
dwelling units Because second dwelling units tend to increase the volume of
vehicle traffic within the City, street parking, noise, and other negative impacts,
this Code restricts the location of second dwelling units within single family
residential zones as set forth in this Article and elsewhere within this Title
Increased traffic not only impacts existing public infrastructure, such as streets
and intersections, but degrades air quality, increases noise, and can introduce
pollutants into the City's storm drains Further, the density of housing within the
City's jurisdiction,when coupled with the industrial, commercial, and airport uses
prevalent throughout the City, impacts aesthetics, public health and safety, and
public welfare by increasing the demand for public services Moreover, because
of the limited parking throughout the City, this Article makes the findings needed
by the Government Code to require additional off-street parking for second
dwelling units in single-family residential zones
15-4E-2 Location in R-1 Zones
In accordance with § 15-4A-2(J), second dwelling units are allowed as a matter of right
anywhere within an R-1 zone if they meet the following zone requirements
A Lots upon which the second unit is to be constructed when the side lot line must
form a common boundary with a lot or lots zoned for R-3 [Multi-Family
Residential], P [Automobile Parking], C-RS [Downtown Commercial], C-2
[Neighborhood Commercial], C-3 [General Commercial], CO [Corporate Office],
Page 2 of 6
67
MU-N [Urban Mixed-Use North] or MU-S [Urban Mixed Use South], and,
B The real property proposed for the second unit cannot consist of more than one
lot, and
C The real property cannot be more than fifty (50) feet wide, or,
D Where a single family dwelling unit containing seven hundred (700) square feet
or less exists on the rear portion of the lot and was placed thereon prior to, or for
which a building permit was issued prior to December 26, 1947, in conformance
to the requirements of Ordinance 293 of the City a second detached unit may be
erected on the front portion of the lot, whereupon the dwelling on the rear portion
of the lot shall assume the status of a nonconforming use as defined herein, but
may be expanded to a maximum of seven hundred(700) square feet
15-4E-3 Location in R-2 and R-3 Zones
In accordance with the requirement of§§ 15-4B-2(B) and 15AC-2, second dwelling units
are allowed as a matter of right anywhere within R-2 and R-3 Zones as these zones
already allow for more than one dwelling unit This Section 15-4E-3 does not grant
additional rights to construct second dwelling units beyond the rights already set forth in
Title 15
15-4E-4 General Requirements
A Lot Area All lots must conform with the lot area, width and depth requirements
of the underlying zone
B. Minimum Yard Requirements The minimum front, side and rear setbacks of the
underlying zone provisions apply to any second unit
C Design Each unit must be designed to be compatible with the main dwelling The
design must consider the use of the same exterior materials,roof covering, colors,
and other architectural features as the main residence
D The second unit must comply with applicable building, health and fire codes
E It is prohibited to have more than one second dwelling unit per lot A second
dwelling unit may only be built on a site which contains another residence or in
conjunction with the construction of a main residence
F Access The second unit must be served by the same driveway access to the street
as the existing main dwelling
G Common entrance If the second unit is attached to the main dwelling, both the
second unit and the main dwelling must be served either by a common entrance or
Page 3 of 6
68
a separate entrance to the second unit must be located on the side or at the rear of
the main dwelling
15-4E-6 Parking for R-1 Zones
A Pursuant to Government Code § 65852 2, the City finds that the requirement that
a second dwelling unit on Single-Family Residential (R-1) property maintain two
parking spaces is consistent with existing neighborhood standards applicable to
existing dwellings. Because the square footage of second dwelling units are not
limited except by lot coverage restrictions (allowing large multi-bedroom units
which tend to create the need for more than one parking space), the required
parking is directly related to the use of a second dwelling unit Requiring two
parking spaces per dwelling unit is consistent with existing neighborhood
standards since two parking spaces are required in all residential zones throughout
the City Off-street parking is allowed in rear and side yard setback areas in the
rear third of a lot and tandem parking is also permitted
B Offstreet Parking Off-street parking spaces must be provided for a second
dwelling unit in addition to that required for the main residence The number and
type of parking spaces must comply with §§15-15-3 and 15-15-5 as they relate to
two-family dwellings The required parking space may not block any required
existing enclosed space for the existing underlying zone, nor conflict with access
to a required parking space
15-4E-7 Plan review process.
A The review process is necessary to ensure that development standards are
complied with and that proposed buildings, structures and uses maintain the
integrity of the zone and are compatible with other buildings and structures in the
zone
B A plan must be filed with the Planning and Building Safety Department on a form
supplied by that department and contains the following information
1 The use to which the property will be put,
2 An accurately dimensioned plot plan showing existing and proposed
topography, all existing and proposed buildings and structures, off-street parking,
landscaping areas, walls and fences, and all existing or proposed streets adjacent
to the property,
3 The dimension of all yards, setbacks, parking areas, driveways, walls and
fences, and square footage of all building or other structures, and
Page 4 of 6
69
4 The floor plans, sections and elevations of all buildings and structures
proposed with a notation of the type of material to be used, the color, and a
matenal sample
C The applicant must pay a filing and processing fee, in an amount set by city
council resolution when filing an application for plan approval
D The Planning and Building Safety Director will provide the applicant with a
written decision regarding the application The decision of the director is final
unless an appeal is filed in accordance with this Code
SECTION 4 The term "Two Family Dwelling" in Section 15-4A-2 (1) is replaced with the
term "Second dwelling unit "
SECTION 5 If any part of this Ordinance or its application is deemed invalid by a court of
competent junsdiction, 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
SECTION fi Repeal of any provision of the El Segundo Municipal Code does 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 7 The City Council determines that this ordinance is exempt from review under the
California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq,
"CEQA") and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 California Code of Regulations §§
15000, et seq , the "State CEQA Guidelines") because it consists only of minor revisions and
clarifications to an existing zoning code and specification of procedures related thereto and will
not have the effect of deleting or substantially changing any regulatory standards or findings
required therefor This ordinance is an action that does not have the potential to cause significant
effects on the environment
SECTION £ 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

construction accessory dwelling units as it did in 2003 or whether it can impose
new arbitrary limitations.
Planning Manager McClain responded that the City can do neither. Any
limitations on new construction accessory dwelling units have to be based on the
criteria set in the state law.
Assistant City Attorney David King clarified that the state law requires that cities
approve accessory dwelling units within existing structures. However, the state
law gives cities some discretion to limit the location of new construction of
accessory dwelling units based on certain criteria.
Chairperson Baldino stated that the state preempted the City with regard to
accessory dwelling units within existing structures, including garages. The City
has to decide whether to continue to severely restrict the location of new
construction of accessory dwelling units. However, he pointed out, restricting new
construction accessory dwelling units would incentivize property owners to just
convert their garages.
Assistant City Attorney King pointed out that the state law did not define what it
meant by the term `existing' structures. Taken literally, `existing' could mean those
structures that existed on January 1, 2017, when the new state law went into
effect. He stated that the City Attorney's interpretation is that 'existing' means
those structures built before January 1, 2017.
Planning Manager McClain indicated that staff received written communication
from a property owner of an R-2 zoned lot regarding permitting accessory dwelling
units in the R-2 zone.
Chairperson Baldino asked whether R- zoned lots have the right to build an
accessory dwelling unit already.
Planning Manager McClain explained that R-2 lots smaller than 4,000 square feet
can only be developed with one unit currently.
Commissioner Nicol asked what the state's goal is in requiring cities to approve
accessory dwelling units.
Planning Manager McClain explained that the state wants to address the housing
shortage in California.
Commissioner Nicol asked if the City were to restrict the permitted locations of
accessory dwelling units whether the state would follow up with stricter
regulations.
Planning Manager McClain stated that if all cities collectively restricted the
development of accessory dwelling units that the state would probably follow up
with stricter regulations.
Commissioner Wingate asked whether the City could restrict the use of water or
sewer facilities.
Planning Manager McClain explained that the City could use that criteria for the
purpose of determining areas where accessory dwelling units would be permitted.
He explained further that it would require further study.

Planning Commissioner Newman asked how many people would be interested in
developing accessory dwelling units on their property.
Planning Manager McClain responded that he did not know, but that the City had
already received some applications to convert existing structures into accessory
dwelling units.
Commissioner Newman asked Commissioner Nicol whether in his line of work as
a real estate professional the subject of accessory dwelling units comes up.
Commissioner Nicol responded that it comes up all the time. Property owners
typically want to have the option to have family live on the same property.
Planning Manager McClain explained that accessory dwelling units can be rented
out to non-family members as well based on the state regulations.
Commissioner Nicol asked whether the City could regulate the length of rental
terms.
Planning Manager McClain explained that state law allows cities to regulate rental
terms and to require the property owner to reside on the property. He added that
short term rentals will be addressed in a separate ordinance.
Chairperson opened public communication.
Arena Costea, architect: Ms. Costea pointed out that people are building or
converting structures into accessory dwelling units whether a city permits it or not.
This leads to a lot of construction that is unsafe. As a result, part of the intent
behind the new state regulations is to allow people to do so in a safe manner.
Jim Stone (1208 E. Walnut Ave). Mr. Stone pointed out that he's constructing an
addition to a garage for a play room. He's also adding a third parking space in his
garage. He's wondering whether he can modify his plans to convert the play room
into an accessory dwelling units. He expressed his hope that the City would
decide in favor of allowing new construction of accessory dwelling units. He
pointed to the increase housing costs in the area as a factor in favor of doing so.
He also expressed support for a size limit that is higher than 600 square feet.
K. C. Newton (620 Whiting Street). He explained that he would like to build a new
detached garage, add a 3rd parking space in it and build an accessory dwelling
units above it. He stated that the purpose for the unit would be to allow relatives
to stay on the same property when they visit from out of town.
Chairperson Baldino suggested that this would be a preferable option in that it
results in additional parking on a property.
Planning Manager McClain agreed and proposed that the ordinance could be
drafted to permit and not discourage the provision of additional parking. He also
mentioned that staff distributed some written correspondence to the dais, which is
includes a request to permit accessory dwelling units in the R-2 zone.
Commissioner Nicol pointed to the difference in standards between the R-1 and
R-2 zones and asked how the new state law applies to R-2 lots.
PAPlanning&Building Safety\_Planning\Planning Commission\Minutes\2017\2017 03-09 Minutes(TO 14).doc
Page 3
Planning Manager McClain pointed out that allowing accessory dwelling units in
the R-2 zone is an option for the City, not a requirement.
Commissioner Nicol stated that it would be unfair for small R-2 zoned lots that are
not permitted to have two units under the current City regulations, not to be
allowed to have an accessory dwelling unit.
Commissioner Wingate asked staff to confirm whether accessory dwelling units
would be subject to the R-1 zone FAR limit.
Planning Manager McClain responded that they would.
Commissioner Nicol asked whether an accessory dwelling unit would count
toward the floor area for parking purposes and he mentioned that the City had just
increased the threshold for requiring a 3rd parking space for a single-family
residence to 3,500 square feet.
Planning Manager McClain responded that they would count toward floor area.
Resident (Imperial Avenue). He explained that he's in the process of purchasing
a property. He pointed out that the property apparently has an accessory unit on
it. He also made a point regarding increasing housing prices in El Segundo.
Ben (1530 E Mariposa Avenue). Mr. Ben mentioned that he has family that
visits regularly and it would be great to have an extra unit for them. He also
pointed out that it would be useful to him to have an extra building/unit with full
shower/bath facilities on the property.
Chairperson Baldino asked whether property owners could come to the City after
the fact and legalize units built and/or converted without permits.
Planning Manager McClain responded that property owners would have to apply
for permits to do so and that the units would have to meet current zoning and
building safety standards.
Commissioner Wingate pointed out that establishing accessory dwelling units will
be a popular option for property owners.
Chairperson Baldino pointed out the dilemma between restricting the location of
new construction accessory dwelling units and unintentionally encouraging garage
conversions.
Commissioner Newman stated that her first reaction was to permit new
construction accessory dwelling units on all R-1 lots in the hopes that property
owners would provide additional parking voluntarily.
Commissioner Nisley asked if someone could build a garage and then convert it
into an accessory dwelling unit.
Planning and Building Safety Director Sam Lee explained that if the ordinance
defines the term existing as structures built before January 1, 2017, a property
owner would not be able to convert a garage built after January 1, 2017.
Commissioner Wingate suggested restricting accessory property owners to
PAPlanning&Building Safety\_Planning\Planning Commission\Minutes\2017\2017 03-09 Minutes(TOM).doc
Page 4
converting existing spaces.
Commissioner Nicol suggested allowing a large maximum size limit (above 600
square feet) to encourage property owners to maintain their garages.
Chairperson Baldino suggested encouraging building units above a garage, but
not necessarily next to their garage. He proposed granting more square footage
for units above a garage.
Commissioner Nicol pointed out that it would be cheaper to build a unit next to a
garage as opposed to above the garage.
Chairperson Baldino expressed support for allowing new construction accessory
dwelling units throughout the R-1 zone to discourage garage conversions.
Commissioner Wingate expressed support for a maximum size limit close to 600
square feet to discourage large families with multiple cars moving in.
Commissioner Nicol agreed with Chairperson Baldino's proposal to permit new
construction throughout the R-1 zone.
Commissioner Wingate pointed out that the expense of converting a garage and
allowing new construction would discourage conversion of garages.
Commissioner Nicol suggested that owners of properties with alley access would
be more likely to build a unit above a detached garage at the rear of a lot. He
suggested that a maximum size limit of 800 square feet may be reasonable in that
situation.
Commissioner Wingate expressed support for requiring the owner of a property
with an accessory dwelling unit to reside on the property.
Commissioner Nicol pointed out that enforcement of that requirement would be
difficult.
Chairperson Baldino summarized the Commissioner's consensus regarding
permitting accessory dwelling units throughout the R-1 zone with a maximum size
limit between 600 and 800 square feet. He also suggested incorporating an
incentive for property owners to maintain existing garages on a property.
Commissioner Nicol pointed out the small R-2 lots and expressed support for
permitting small R-2 lots to have an accessory dwelling unit.
Planning Manager McClain suggested that staff could add provisions allowing
certain small R-2 lots to have an accessory dwelling unit. If the Commission did
not like the language at its next meeting, staff could remove or edit it.
Assistant City Attorney King encouraged the Commission to take time to
deliberate the issues carefully and not rush a decision.
Chairperson Baldino asked staff whether they had adequate direction to draft an
ordinance in time for the next Planning Commission meeting.
Planning Manager McClain responded that staff had clear direction.
Commissioner Wingate moved, seconded by Commissioner Nicol, for the MOTION

DRAFT EXCERPTS OF MINUTES OF THE MEETING
OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA
March 23, 2017
Chair Baldino presented Agenda item Environmental Assessment No. 1177 and Zone
Text Amendment No. 16-06. Consideration and possible action recommending approval
of an ordinance amending Titles 8 and 15 of the El Segundo Municipal Code (ESMC)
related to the City's regulation of accessory dwelling units. Address:Citywide. Applicant:
City Initiated. Property Owners: Various.
Planning Manager Gregg McClain stated that there are currently several pending bills in
Sacramento that would change the government code section that applies to accessory
dwelling units if signed. He requested that staff be given time to review the bills and
assess their likelihood of approval before drafting an ordinance. He requested that Chair
Baldino open public communications and continue the hearing
Chair Baldino gave a brief summary of the state law in question and the City's options
and flexibility in adopting that law.
Beth Shodorf, 428 W. Palm
Ms. Shodorf asked how this would affect properties in the R-2 zone.
Ruthie Thorpe, 520 E. Walnut
Ms. Thorpe stated that is in escrow for a 1,000 square foot house, and that the intention
was to build an ADU in order to be able to live together with mother as well as her
husband and children. She expressed concern over the ADU's limitation of 50% of the
primary dwelling. She said that since the primary dwelling was only 1,000 square feet,
the ADU would only be allowed to be 500 sqaure feet.
Roland Olbert, 937 Sheldon
Mr. Olbert stated that he was in the middle of construction to build an accessory
structure attached to his garage, and that he is interested in converting it to a living unit
for his handicapped father-in-law.
Tim Stone, 1208 E. Walnut
Mr. Stone stated that he would like to be able to have an ADU on his property.
Mr. Baldino asked if 600 square feet would be enough.
Mr. Stone replied that 800 would be better.
78
Aster Verna 115 W Maple
Mr. Verna asked why the City would consider a lower maximum ADU size than what the
state is allowing. He added that his R-1 property borders an R-2 lot, which allows him to
already build an ADU, provided that he builds additional parking.
Close public comunication
Ms. Newman asked about the pending bills in Sacramento.
Mr. McClain replied that there are currently 4 pending bills that affect the subject at
hand, and that they are all working independently to change the language in certain
ways. He said that the one that staff is watching most closely is related to garage
conversions.
Assistant City Attorney David King provided further details about the bills in question,
stating that the original law does not define `accessory structure.' He stated that
garages may not have meant to be included in the definition, and one of the bills is
seeking to clarify this.
Commissioner Nicol asked staff for clarification regarding the legality of garage
conversions.
Commissioner Wingate asked for clarification about which zones this will apply to.
Mr. McClain stated that the law applies to single-family residential zones only, and that
in El Segundo, this means only R-1.
In response the the question about R-2 lots, Mr. McClain clarified that the state law in
question only applies to R-1 zones.
In response the the question about the 50% limit to ADUs, Mr. McClain explained that
this applies only to converions of existing homes, and would not apply to additions or
detached structures.
In response the the question about whether it is too late for an accessory structure that
is currently under construction to be permitted as an ADU, Mr. McClain explained that
the answer depends on the the final ordinance.
In response the the question about why a limit of 600 square feet is being proposed, Mr.
McClain explained that the state law gives cities freedom to set lower limits for detached
ADUs. He stated that currently the City's limit on accessory structures are 600 square
feet. He said that this number was recommended as a limit to ADUs so that those that
have 600 square foot accessory structures would be able to convert them to ADUs. He
stated that the 1,200 square foot limit only applies to the conversion of houses.
79
Mr. Baldino asked if there was a way to only allow non-rentable ADUs, for the use of
family only.
Mr. McClain replied That that would not be possible.
Commissioner Nisley asked about those who wanted to covert their accessory
structures that are over 600 square feet to ADUs.
Mr. McClain stated that such a structure would predate current code. He stated that the
limitation of such a conversion might be related to the square footage of the main unit.
Ms. Newman asked how flexible staff will be on specific cases where the ADU does not
meet development standards.
Planning Manager McClain stated that for the process to be ministerial, proposed ADUs
would have to meet all standards. If they don't meet all the standards, property owners
would be able to apply for either a Variance or a Code Amendment.
Chairperson Baldino pointed out that the fear of losing existing garages to conversion is
no longer there. As a result, the City doesn't have a reason to incentivize new
construction of ADUs. However, most members of the public that testified expressed
support for the option of new construction.
Assistant City Attorney King pointed out once again the new state law is confusing and
that staff has been working hard to make sense of it and present it to the Commission
and the public. It is unfortunate that the state law did not clearly define the term
accessory structure.
Commissioner Nicol asked what property owners can do based on the state law, while
the City is deliberating on a draft ordinance.
Chairperson Baldino responded that the state law allows property owners to convert
existing accessory structures and existing space in single family residences. Property
owners that want to build new ADUs — except on properties where ADUs are currently
permitted - will have to wait for the City to adopt an ordinance addressing new
construction ADUs. He added that the City would have to decide whether to move
forward with incentivizing new construction ADUs now that—it appears — garages can
no longer be converted into ADUs.
Assistant City Attorney King stated that the City Attorney's interpretation of the bill
pending in the legislature is that the term "accessory structure" excludes garages.
Chairperson Baldino asked staff how much time they would need to review the pending
bill and report back to the planning Commission.
80
Planning Manager McClain requested that the Commission continue the public hearing
to the April 27, 2017 meeting to give staff enough time.
Commissioner Wingate moved, seconded by Commissioner Nicol, to continue the item
to the April 27, 2017 Planning Commission meeting.

Ms. Wingate stated that she was concerned that one of the tenants did not
have a loading zone and about trash storage.
Mr. Schonborn showed on the plans where the trash for the businesses
was to be located and stated that no other department reviewing the plans
had made any comments about the proposed size and location of
proposed trash facilities.
Ms. Wingate asked if parking would be free.
Mr. Schonborn stated that he believed so, though the applicant would be
able to provide more details.
Ms. Newman asked if there had been a new traffic study after the bank
was proposed to be a restaurant instead.
Mr. Schonborn responded that the traffic study had been updated to
account for the entire site being high turnover restaurants, and that the
change did not cause any change in level of service.
Bob Tarnopski, Applicant, Continental Development
Ms. Wingate stated that she was concerned about parking. She stated that
she thought parking would be inconvenient to customers and that people
wouldn't want to leave the surface parking lot and access the structure
from the street. She asked if the structure could be accessed from the
surface parking lot without drivers having to go back into the street.
Mr. Tarnopski stated that they planned on having greeters that would guide
drivers to the additional available parking in the structure.
Ms. Newman asked whether the ground floor of the structure would be
devoted to the new development and whether they would have valet
parking.
Mr. Tarnopski affirmed both. He also stated that because of the type of
restaurants going in and the development's proximity to Continental Park,
many patrons will arrive on foot.
Ms. Newman asked what type of restaurants would be moving in.
Mr. Tarnopski gave a summary of the restaurants that have signed and the
types of restaurants they are seeking for the remaining units.
Ms. Newman asked if all would serve alcohol

Contract Senior Planner Trayci Nelson presented a staff report.
Ms. Wingate asked exactly when the parking study was done.
Ms. Nelson stated that the counts were taken in November of 2015 and
that it was not during a holiday.
Steve Tomko, Architect, representative of Applicant
Mr. Tomko stated that the building will not generate much noise.
He stated in response to a question that the top deck of the parking
structure has been closed off due to low demand, and to keep non-
employees from parking there. He added that it is not a public building, and
that they do not expect to see much traffic beyond what is generated by
Boeing employees.
Mr. Tomko summarized the changes that were made to the plans in
response to neighborhood comments, including the sound wall,
landscaping and traffic gates.
Ms. Wingate asked if visitors were allowed onto the property.
Mr. Tomko stated that employees would have badges and that visitors
84
would have to be buzzed in at the gate.
Ms. Newman asked about the parking covenant with the other Boeing
property on Selby.
Mr. Tomko confirmed that on-site 350 spaces were covenanted for the
Boeing buildings on Selby.
Mr. Nisley inquired about the noise that the garbage collectors cause.
Mr. Tomko stated that Boeing's site management is committed to moving
garbage collection to a later time in the day, but wasn't sure whether they
would be able to move it past 7am. He stated that he would research
options.
Mr. Nicol asked about what had been done about the airport noise that will
deflect off of the new building to adjacent residences.
Mr. Tomko responded that that an exterior insulation finish system is
proposed for the outside of the building, which will absorb some of the
noise. He stated that would absorb more noise than would steel or
masonry.
Mr. Nicol asked about the proposed trees on the west side of the property_
Mr. Tomko summarized the tree types and landscaping that were proposed
along the property line shared with residential.

Principal Planner Paul Samaras presented the staff report.
Mathine Klein,. 435 W. Acacia Ave. PUBLIC
COMMUNICATION
Ms. Klein stated that it would help her family stay together if she were able to
build an ADU on her property.
Kimberly Coal, 520 E. Walnut
Ms. Coal stated that she lived together with her daughter, son-in-law and
grandkids in a small house and that she had recently bought her property
with the intention of building a second dwelling in order to keep everyone
85
together. She added that staff's recommendation that ADUs only be allowed
as additions to the primary dwelling would preclude her from building a three-
car garage with an ADU above as she has intended. She argued that such a
restriction would leave her with the only option of leaving her existing one-car
garage and extending the ADU into the existing open space. She also spoke
against the option to define `existing' as structures built before January 1,
2017. She explained that since she and her daughter both work from home,
they might like to build an office and later convert it to an ADU. The proposed
definition of `existing' would make such plans an impossibility.
Umberto Capiro, homebuilder
Mr. Umberto stated that he has done a lot of work in the city. He stated that
allowing ADUs is a good way to create more needed housing.
Crain Carr, 740 Eucalyptus
Mr. Carr stated that he had bought his house with the hope of being able to
build a unit for his mother-in-law. He spoke in favor of being able to build
units above garages, and said that he did not want his only option to be to
make a behemoth of a house.
Patricia Conecme, 400 block of Loma Vista St.
Ms. Conecme stated that she has an elderly mother who she would like to be
able to live with her. She stated that her mother is independent and feisty,
and that it would be best if her dwelling was separated from the main
dwelling. She added that she parks in her garage.
Jesus Ranjero, 503 Concord
Mr. Ranjero expressed his desire for his family to be able to live together.
He stated that currently his old and dangerous garage faces a busy street,
and that his intention was to put a new three-car garage in the back off of the
alley with a unit above for his daughter, her husband and their two children.
He added that he would like to see the size limit increased to 1,100 or 1,200
square feet so that a family of four could comfortably fit.
Cathy Wiley, 800 block of Bunnalow Dr.
Ms. Wiley stated that the low supply of housing is causing rents to rise,
which is making the community less attractive and less welcoming to young
people and young families. She stated her kids cannot afford to buy or even
rent close to her, and that ADUs are a way of maintaining a family
environment. Ms. Wiley added that street parking shortages are not due to
ADUs, but to growing families with young adults that drive.
Roland Olbert, 900 block of Sheldon
Mr. Olbert spoke in favor of allowing ADUs in order for families to be able to
86
stay together. He stated that he had older parents and that he would like
them to be able to live with him. He also stated that he had teenage kids who
could also benefit from an ADU in the coming years.
Sarwan Sutawal 1123 E Acacia
Mr. Sutawal stated that he has college-aged kids and he would like the
possibility of being able to create an ADU so that they could stay together.
He added that ideally the ADU would be detached from the primary dwelling.
Erin Shuns, 314 W Oak Ave.
Ms. Shuns stated that here property was historically zoned R-2, but at some
point had been re-zoned to R-1. She spoke in favor of allowing ADUs.
Tahi Isa, architect
Mr. Isa suggested the limit of ADUs be closer to eight hundred square feet,
and allow units to be added to detached garages for the sake of privacy.
Aster Verna 115 W Maple
Mr. Verna asked whether the amendment will affect the 35 R-1 lots that
currently are allowed to build ADUs.
Mr. Samaras stated that the proposed ordinance does not address lots that
are already permitted to build ADUs, and that staff was seeking direction
from the commission regarding these properties.
Ms. Wingate stated that she believed that the lots in question should follow
the rules that were in place before January 1St
Mr. McClain reminded the commissioners that the City would not be allowed
to require parking for these properties.
Kirk Brown, 645 Penn
Mr. Brown asked why staff recommended that only additions were proposed
to be allowed. He stated that additions can ruin the character of the house,
many properties are large enough for detached ADUs and that many people
have spoken in favor of allowing detached ADUs.
Mr. Baldino responded that if the City allows detached ADUs in the R-1 zone
the City would not be able to control on-site parking requirements.
Mr. McClain explained that the recommendation that staff offered what they
considered reasonable but very constrictive. He stated that they have
provided several options for the Commission to give staff guidance on in
writing the ordinance.
87
Assistant City Attorney David King stated that the option of allowing additions
only could result in a slightly less impact than if detached structures were
allowed to be built.
Mr. Brown stated that the public comments have spoken in favor of allowing
detached ADUs, that it seems reasonable to allow them to be detached and
that he does not agree with the recommendation that only ADUs as additions
be allowed.
Ms. Wingate stated that properties outlive the current tenants. She stated
that although a person may build an ADU for their own family, the next owner
will have a rentable unit with no parking. She stated that ADUs increase the
number of people, and they increase the number of cars with no place to put
them. She added attached ADUs should have separate entrances and the
fact that they are attached to the main dwelling deincentivizes people from
renting them out to non-family.
Mr. Brown added that other South Bay cities are allowing detached ADUs
and that El Segundo should as well.
Ms. Newman stated that she felt the recommended ordinance to be very PLANNING
restrictive and suggested that additions over garages be allowed. COMMISSIONER'S
COMMENTS
Mr. Baldino asked whether it was possible to restrict ADUs to above
garages.
Ms. Wingate stated that the elderly parents that many of these would be built
for might have trouble getting up and down the stairs.
Mr. Nisley added that a standard garage is only 400 square feet, which
doesn't leave much room for a second unit.
Mr. McClain suggested that staff look at the possibility of allowing additions
to garages on the ground level.
Mr. Nicol stated that he was sympathetic to the concern over allowing ADUs
and having a parking problem in the R-1 zone. He stated that despite this
fear, the state is trying to address a housing shortage, many other cities are
allowing ADUs with less restriction than is being proposed, and that he had
noted that every public comment had been in favor of allowing them. Mr.
Nicol added that if they are allowed, that the City may as well allow them
without restrictions in regard to location. He stated that by allowing them as
additions only would be undesirable — causing the massing of houses to
extend deeper into backyards, and people regularly walking down side yards
to access their units. He asked how such a restriction would benefit the City.
Ms. Newman stated that not many people are going to build that way
because it is not attractive.
88
Mr. Nicol reiterated that if the City is going to allow attached ADUs, then it
may as well allow them detached.
Mr. Baldino replied that in that case you would have two families living on a
lot that was designed for one family, without any additional parking.
Mr. Nicol again asked how a very large house with two units is better than a
single-unit house with a detached ADU in the rear yard that is limited to 600
or 800 square feet.
Ms. Wingate responded that if ADUs are only allowed as attached units, then
fewer people would build them. She stated that if she were to build an
attached ADU on her property, she would be much more likely to rent it out
to family or close friends than to strangers.
Mr. Baldino stated that by entertaining staff's recommendation of allowing
ADUs as attached only, they are trying to maintain the status quo and the
small-town feel of the community. He added that there is no way that El
Segundo will continue to be El Segundo if every R-1 lot is allowed to have 2
units. He stated that staff's proposal is the best the City can do to comply
with the state law and maintain what El Segundo is.
Mr. Nisley suggested allowing new construction of ADUs only when attached
to a garage and imposing a size limit.
The Commission agreed that the definition of `existing' encompass structures
that were permitted before January 1St, 2017.
The Commission agreed that the definition of an accessory structure should
not include garages.
The Commission agreed that ADUs should be allowed as attachments to
garages only. Further they agreed that they should be limited to 800 square
feet.
The Commission agreed that ADUs should be allowed only on lots less than
4,000 square feet.
The Commission agreed that existing covenants in the R-1 zone that restrict
the use of accessory structures be released at the time that building permits
are issued for conversion.

a majority vote to be achieved. Ms. Newman's name was drawn.
Commissioner Nisley and Ms. Wingate recused themselves from the dais.
Contract Planning Technician Russell Toler presented a staff report.
Ms. Newman asked staff if there had been many proposals that seem to
have been impeded by the requirement that residential tenants be tenants
of the commercial units below.
Mr. Toler stated that there have not been many inquiries about new
projects, though the selling of residential units that were built after the
adoption of the requirement has caused concern, and is the source of the
proposed amendment.
Mr. Nicol stated that he is concerned by the fact that all new construction
triggers compliance with current (and higher) parking requirements. He
said that this de-incentivizes redevelopment and that nonconforming
parking rights should be grandfathered for redeveloped commercial
properties.
Mr. Baldino noted that this could be accomplished by requiring no parking
for commercial development, but asked whether this was fair to those who
have already paid into the parking in-lieu fee program.
Carol Winqate, 539 Richmond St.
Ms. Wingate stated that buildings on the west side of Main Street could
easily provide semi- or full-subterranean parking. She stated that the
downtown area needs more parking because it is getting more crowded,
and that it should be required for both commercial and residential uses.
Mr. Baldino asked staff whether under the proposed amendment parking
would be required for new construction only, or for conversions as well.
Planning Manager Gregg McClain explained that the conversion of upper
floor commercial space to residential space would constitute a change in
use, and therefore trigger parking requirement. He noted, however, that a
reduction in commercial area could work out in favor of the property owner
doing such a conversion.
Ms. Newman expressed concern over requiring no parking at all for new
residential units. She stated that the in-lieu fee of $17,500 didn't seem like
too much when considering the total cost of a second story addition.
91
Ms. Wingate reiterated that parking should be required for both commercial
and residential uses.
Matt Crabbs
Mr. Crabbs expressed his belief that a zero parking requirement for new
residential units would not cause problems, and that the in-lieu fee
probably would not deter much development. He stressed the importance MOTION
ensuring that the second stories that do go up are of an acceptable
aesthetic quality.
Mr. Baldino asked Mr. Crabbs if he thought a zero parking requirement
would spur development.
CONTINUED
Mr. Crabbs responded that it could incentivize some development, but due BUSINESS
to the difficulty of adding second floors within the Plan area, new
development is more practical. OTHER BUSSINESS
Mr. Baldino asked whether the City wanted to err on the side of REPORT FROM
encouraging residential units in order to help revitalize downtown or to err PLANNING AND
on the side of being overly protective of parking issues. He stated that he BUILDING SAFETY
was torn between requiring 0 and 1 space per residential unit. DIRECTOR
Mr. Nicol asked if 0.5 per residential unit was an option.
Mr. Baldino said that the requirement could be 0.5 spaces required per
unit, which would mean that only 1 space would be required for the
development of 2 residential units.
Ms. Newman asked staff if the property in question had adequate parking.
Mr. Toler responded that 19 spaces were provided, though based on the
commercial square footage, only 17 were required.
Mr. Nicol expressed his recommendation that 0.5 spaces be required per
residential unit, with the first unit waived of any parking requirement. The
developer would have the option to pay the in-lieu fee. Mr. Nicol stated
that based on Mr. Crabbs comments, he did not believe that such a fee
would deter development.
Ms. Newman expressed her recommendation of requiring 0.5 spaces per
residential unit without the first being waived.
Mr. Baldino summarized that the Commission was in agreement that
residential units should not be required to be owner-occupied, and that the
amendment should only be applied to new units so that existing properties
would not be adversely affected. He directed staff to prepare two versions
of an Ordinance that reflect the Commission's opinion, each with one of the
proposed parking options, which would be decided on at the following
Planning Commission meeting.

Ms. Newman moved, seconded by Mr. Nicol to continue item H-3 — EA

COMMENTS

None.
Planning and Building Safety Director Sam Lee stated that he appreciated
the night's discussion and that he would like to get the Downtown
Subcommittee together again so that they could talk about the issues of
parking and nonconformities within the downtown area.
He also spoke in favor of the parking in-lieu fee program, stating that he
believed that its unpopularity is due to misunderstanding. He stated that
the collected funds go into an account that is used to provide community
parking within the downtown area. He reminded the commission that the
recent Richmond Street improvements, which added street parking
downtown, was partially funded by the in-lieu fee program funds. Mr. Lee
said that there are not a lot of in-lieu funds coming in because of the
allowance of the interchange of permitted commercial uses without
businesses having to provide additional parking. He requested that staff
prepare a presentation on the program.
Mr. Nicol asked why the City doesn't provide parking in order to see the
types of businesses that they want to see thrive. He stated that requiring
businesses to provide their own on-site parking can be a deterrent to new
business.
Mr. Baldino asked Mr. Lee on the status on making the City Fire
Department parking lot more accessible to the public.
Mr. Lee stated that he would check with the fire chief.
Mr. Baldino asked about the status on the proposed changes to

Principal Planner Paul Samaras presented a staff report.
Commissioner Wingate asked about the intent of allowing R-2 zoned lots
smaller than 4,000 square feet to have an ADU.
Principal Planner Samaras explained that R-2 lots that are smaller than
4,000 square feet are allowed to have only one unit under the City's current
PAPlanning&Building Safety\_Planning\Planning Commission\Minutes\2017\2017 05-11 Minutes(TO IIn.docx

regulations. Permitting these lots to have an ADU would equally as R-1
lots, which would be allowed to have a second unit under the provisions of
the proposed ordinance.
Commissioner Wingate asked about how the R-1 FAR limits affect ADU
development.
Principal Planner Samaras explained that the combined area of a primary
dwelling and an ADU would have to maximum floor area permitted in the
R-1 zone. The maximum floor area permitted in the R-1 zone is 60 percent
of the lot area.
Commissioner Wingate asked whether garages count toward the FAR limit.
Principal Planner Samaras explained that garages up to 500 square feet in
size do not count toward the FAR limit. Any portion of a garage above the
500 square-foot limit counts toward the FAR limit.
Commissioner Wingate asked if she added an 800 square-foot ADU on top
of her garage whether the garage would count toward the FAR limit.
Principal Planner Samaras explained that only the 800 square-foot addition
would count toward the FAR limit; not the existing garage space.
Commissioner Nicol asked staff to confirm whether the ordinance would
allow the addition of an ADU to a detached garage.
Principal Planner Samaras explained that the ordinance contains that
provision on page 7 under the section regarding ADU locations on a
property.
Commissioner Newman asked what the process is for someone to legalize
an ADU built without permits.
Principal Planner Samaras explained that a property owner would have to
submit plans to the City for review and request permits to legalize the ADU.
Mr. Samaras made clear that the ADUs would have to meet all the
requirements of the proposed ordinance and other applicable regulations.
Commissioner Nisley asked if someone can add an ADU on top of a
detached garage when the primary dwelling is only single story.
Principal Planner Samaras answered affirmatively.
Commissioner Nisley asked whether someone could add an ADU to the
side of an existing 400 square-foot garage.
Principal Planner Samaras answered affirmatively.
Chairperson Baldino asked if a property owner could demolish an older

garage, build a new one and then attach an ADU to the new garage.
Principal Planner Samaras answered affirmatively.
Chairperson Baldino opened public communications. PUBLIC
COMMUNICATION
Mr. Atkinson: Mr. Atkinson expressed regret that the ordinance as drafted
restricts whether and how a property owner can build a detached
accessory dwelling unit. He expressed support for the idea of allowing
property owners to building detached accessory dwelling units in any
configuration they choose. He did not object to a reasonable limit to the
size of an accessory dwelling unit.
Mrs. Kimberly Kohl: Mrs. Kohl asked the Planning Commission to confirm
how long it would take before an ordinance is adopted. She also observed
that the nature of car ownership will change over time and, as a result,
parking will be less of a concern. She encouraged the Planning
Commission to be less concerned about the parking impacts resulting from
the development of accessory dwelling units.
Chairperson Baldino closed public communications.
Chair Baldino asked staff when they expect an ordinance to be adopted
and become effective.
Principal Planner Samaras explained the earliest possible time a new
ordinance could be adopted and become effective is on July 20, 2017.
Assistant City Attorney King cautioned the audience against assuming that
the ordinance would be effective that soon. He pointed out that he
Planning Commission held four meetings to consider the item and that the
City Council may similarly take additional time to make a decision.
Commissioner Newman expressed agreement with Mr. Atkinson's
comments regarding giving property owners more options. She asked
Planning Manager McClain to explain the reason for the restrictions on
accessory dwelling units that are detached from the primary dwelling.
Planning Manager McClain explained that the purpose of the restrictions on
detached accessory dwelling units is to limit their proliferation in the City.
The restrictions would allow everyone in the R-1 zone options to develop
an accessory dwelling unit on their lot, while not making it as easy as
possible.
Commissioner Newman suggested that the restrictions on detached
accessory dwelling units were unnecessary, but their size was restricted by
the ordinance. Therefore, it didn't make a big difference whether they were
developed as a separate detached building or attached to a detached
PAPlanning&Building Safety\_Planning\Planning Commission\Minutes\2017\2017 05-11 Minutes(TO Rp.docx

garage.
Commissioner Wingate pointed out that El Segundo is a residential
community and that permitting the proliferation of accessory dwelling units
would change the character of the community.
Chairperson Baldino agreed with Commissioner Wingate. He
acknowledged that there are good reasons for individual property owners
to be able to build detached accessory dwelling units, but believed that the
interest of preserving the community's single family residential character
and limiting the parking impacts of accessory dwelling units was more
important.
Commissioner Nicol agreed with Mr. Atkinson's comments. He pointed out
that R-1 zoned lots sell for more than R-2 lots. He also stated that the
ordinance was drafted in a way that gave more options to those property
owners who have a detached garage at the rear of their property, which is
unfair to other property owners who have an attached garage at the front of
their primary dwelling. He suggested that the ordinance should just set a
maximum size limit of 800 square feet for detached accessory dwelling
units and allow property owners to choose how to use that allowance.
Chairperson Baldino reiterated that the purpose of the restrictions in the
ordinance was to offer some options for detached accessory dwelling units
that would address the circumstances of certain properties, such as those
having alley access, without encouraging the unrestricted proliferation of
accessory dwelling units.
Assistant City Attorney King suggested that the Planning Commission
could recommend adoption of an ordinance and staff can point out to the
City Council that there was significant discussion on the topic of detached
accessory dwelling units and whether or not to impose restrictions, such as
requiring them to be attached to a garage.
Commissioner Nicol moved, seconded by Commissioner Wingate, to adopt MOTION
Resolution No. 2809 recommending approval of EA 1177 and Zone Text
Amendment No. 16-06 (passed 5-0).

RESOLUTION NO. 2809
A RESOLUTION RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL ADOPT
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLES 8 AND 15 OF THE EL SEGUNDO
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATED TO THE CITY'S REGULATION OF
ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS.
(Environmental Assessment No. 1177 and
Zone Text Amendment No. 16-06)
The Planning Commission of the City of El Segundo does resolve as follows:
SECTION 1: The Planning Commission finds and declares that:
A. On February 15, 2005, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1381 which
added article E to chapter 15-4 of the El Segundo Municipal Code (ESMC)
pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.2 affecting Second Dwelling
Units;
B. The location of second dwelling units was limited in Ordinance No. 1381
based on certain findings made by the City Council at the time. In particular,
the City Council found that traffic volumes were already increasing, resulting
in numerous intersections then at less-than-desired levels of service. It was
found that the small residential area of the City was not prepared to handle
the relatively higher density and the expected impacts related to on-street
parking;
C. On September 27, 2016, Assembly Bill No. 2299 and Senate Bill No. 1069
were both approved. These bills made changes to Section 65852.2 to
facilitate the development of accessory dwelling units (formerly termed
second dwelling units);
D. On November 29, 2016, staff initiated an application for Environmental
Assessment No. EA 1177 and Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA 16-06 to
amend the City's regulations affecting Accessory Dwelling Units to ensure
conformity with the State's changes to Section 65852.2;
E. The Planning and Building Safety Department scheduled the public hearing
regarding the application before the Planning Commission for March 9,
2017;
F. On March 9, March 23, April 27, and May 11, 2017, the Planning
Commission held a public hearing to receive public testimony and other
evidence regarding the proposed amendment, including information
provided to the Planning Commission by City staff and public testimony;
100
G. The Planning Commission finds that the conditions that were cited in
Ordinance No. 1381 that existed in the City at the time (i.e., increased traffic,
relatively high density of housing in a small area, and intense on-street
parking) continue to exist within the City, so it is appropriate to limit the
location of accessory dwelling units to certain areas within the City as
described by the proposed ordinance and pursuant to Government Code
section 65852.2(a)(1)(A);
H. The Planning Commission further finds that the prospect of garages being
converted into accessory dwelling units would exacerbate the City's existing
on-street parking problems, since converting garages into accessory
dwelling units displaces both the required parking for the primary dwelling
as well as adding street parking demand related to the tenants of the
accessory dwelling unit; and
I. This Resolution and its findings are made based upon the evidence
presented to the Commission at its March 9, March 23, and April 27, 2017,
hearing including the staff report submitted by the Planning and Building
Safety Department.
SECTION 2: Factual Findings And Conclusions. The Commission finds that
implementing the proposed ordinance would result in the following:
A. Facilitate the development of accessory dwelling units in the Single-Family
Residential (R-1) and Two-Family (R-2) zones;
B. Accessory dwelling units will be permitted on real property that cannot
consist of more than one lot;
C. Accessory dwelling units will be permitted only on lots that contain an
existing single-family dwelling, or will be constructed in conjunction with a
single-family dwelling;
D. Accessory dwelling units will not be allowed to be sold separately from a
primary dwelling;
E. Accessory dwelling units or primary dwellings on a lot will be required to
be owner-occupied.
F. Accessory dwelling units will be restricted to the height and setback
standards applicable to all other accessory structures in their respective
zones;
G. Accessory dwelling units within existing primary dwellings will be restricted
to a maximum size of 1,200 square feet and detached accessory dwelling
2
101
units will be limited to 800 square feet. All accessory dwelling units are
subject to the total floor area ratio limitation applicable to the lot;
H. Accessory dwelling units will be required to be compatible in architectural
design with the primary dwelling on a lot;
I. In accordance with Government Code Section 65852.2(d),100 percent of
residential lots that are eligible for an accessory dwelling unit within the
City are within half of a mile of public transit and are, therefore, not
required to provide parking for the accessory unit;
J. Accessory dwelling units will be required to comply with applicable
building, health and fire codes, except where explicitly exempted by
Government Code Section 65852.2.
K. Conversions of garages and carports required under the provisions of
ESMC Title 15 will be prohibited.
SECTION 3: General Plan Findings. As required under Government Code Section
65860, the ESMC amendments proposed by the Ordinance are consistent with the El
Segundo General Plan as follows:
A. The proposed zone text amendment is in conformity with the Land Use
Element goals, objectives and policies. Specifically, the zone text
amendment is consistent with Land Use Element Goal LU3 and Objectives
LU3-1 and LU3-2 in that the amendment will: a) facilitate the development
of accessory dwelling units in the City's R-1 and R-2 zones as required by
Section 65852.2 of the Government Code; and b) will protect single family
residential uses and preserve the City's low-medium residential nature
through the use of development standards, such as limits to the area,
height, and setbacks for accessory dwelling units. These limits will ensure
accessory dwelling units remain secondary and subordinate to primary
dwellings on a property and will reduce potential negative impacts on
surrounding properties; and
B. The proposed zone text amendment is consistent with the Housing Element
goals, objectives and policies. Specifically, the zone text amendment is
consistent with Goal No. 4 to remove governmental constraints on housing
development, in that it will remove the location restrictions, lot size, and
parking requirements for accessory dwelling units. In addition, the zone text
amendment is consistent with the goal of assisting in the production of
affordable housing and Program No. 3 in that it will facilitate the
development of accessory units on R-1 zoned lots. Further, the zone text
amendment is consistent with Program No. 6 to facilitate development on
underutilized sites and on small lots, particularly on small lots in the R-2
3
102
zone through the elimination of parking requirements for accessory dwelling
units.
SECTION 4: Zone Text Amendment Findings. In accordance with ESMC Section 15-26-
4 and based on the findings set forth in Section 2, the proposed zone text amendment is
consistent with and necessary to carry out the general purpose of ESMC Tile 15 as
follows:
A. It is consistent with the purpose of the ESMC, which is to serve the public
health, safety, and general welfare and to provide the economic and social
advantages resulting from an orderly planned use of land resources. In
addition, it is consistent with the purpose of the R-1 and R-2 zones to
promote development of single-family and two-family homes within a safe
and healthy environmental for existing and future residents, in that
accessory dwelling units will conform to the height and setback standards
applicable to accessory structures, will be compatible architecturally with
primary dwellings, and meet all applicable building, health, and fire codes;
and
B. It is necessary to facilitate the development process and ensure the orderly
development of accessory dwelling units on properties in the R-1 and R-2
zones that are compatible with surrounding properties and consistent with
the goals, policies, and objectives of the General Plan as set forth in Section
4 above.
SECTION 5: Environmental Assessment. Because of the facts set forth in Section 2, the
proposed zone text amendment is statutorily exempt from further environmental review
under the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code
§§21000, et seq., "CEQA") and CEQA Guidelines (14 California Code of Regulations
§§15000, et seq.), because it involves the adoption of an ordinance regarding accessory
dwelling units in a single-family or multifamily residential zone to implement the provisions
of section 65852.2 of the Government Code as set forth in section 21080.17 of the Public
Resources Code, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15282(h).
SECTION 6: Recommendation. The Planning Commission recommends that the City
Council adopt the ordinance in a form substantially similar to the draft attached as Exhibit
"A," which is incorporated into this resolution by reference.
SECTION 7: Reliance On Record. Each and every one of the findings and determination
in this Resolution are based on the competent and substantial evidence, both oral and
written, contained in the entire record relating to the project. The findings and
determinations constitute the independent findings and determinations of the Planning
Commission in all respects and
SECTION 8: Limitations. The Planning Commission's analysis and evaluation of the
project is based on information available at the time of the decision. It is inevitable that in
4
103
evaluating a project that absolute and perfect knowledge of all possible aspects of the
project will not exist. In all instances, best efforts have been made to form accurate
assumptions.
SECTION 9: This Resolution will remain effective until superseded by a subsequent
resolution.
SECTION 10: The Commission secretary is directed to mail a copy of this Resolution to
any person requesting a copy.
SECTION 11: This Resolution may be appealed within 10 calendar days after its
adoption. All appeals must be in writing and filed with the City Clerk within this time
period. Failure to file a timely written appeal will constitute a waiver of any right of appeal.

ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLES 8 AND 15 OF THE EL
SEGUNDO MUNICIPAL CODE RELATED TO ACCESSORY
DWELLING UNITS
The City Council of the City of El Segundo does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1: The City Council finds and declares as follows:
A. On February 15, 2005, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1381 which
added article E to El Segundo Municipal Code (ESMC) chapter 15-4 which
provided for the creation of second dwelling units; the ordinance limited the
location of second dwelling units to the R-1 zone and applied certain
development standards as permitted by law;
B. The location of second dwelling units was limited in Ordinance No. 1381
based on certain findings made by the City Council at the time. In particular,
the City Council found that traffic volumes were already increasing, resulting
in numerous intersections then at less-than-desired levels of service. It was
found that the small residential area of the City was not prepared to handle
the relatively higher density and the expected impacts related to street
parking;
C. In recent years, there has been considerable discussion throughout the
state regarding a housing shortage in California, which is associated with
rising housing costs and a shortage of affordable housing options, and
increased homelessness. Accessory dwelling units by their nature are
considered to be affordable units which will help to alleviate some of the
lack of affordability in housing markets;
D. On September 27, 2016, Assembly Bill No. 2299 and Senate Bill No. 1069
were both approved. These bills amended Government Code Section
65852.2 to facilitate the development of accessory dwelling units (formerly
termed "second dwelling units");
E. On November 29, 2016, staff initiated an application for Environmental
Assessment No. EA-1177 and Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA 16-06 to
amend the City's regulations affecting accessory dwelling units to ensure
conformity with the State's changes to Government Code Section 65852.2;
F. The City reviewed the project's environmental impacts under the California
Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§21000, et
seq., CEQA) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 California
Code of Regulations §§15000, et seq., CEQA Guidelines), and the City's
Environmental Guidelines (City Council Resolution No. 3805, adopted
March 16, 1993);
107
G. The Planning and Building Safety Department scheduled the public hearing
regarding the application before the Planning Commission for March 9,
2017;
H. On March 9, March 23, and April 27, 2017, the Planning Commission held
a public hearing to receive public testimony and other evidence regarding
the proposed amendment, including information provided by City staff and
public testimony;
I. On May 11, 2017, the Planning Commission received further testimony and
other evidence regarding the proposed amendment and adopted
Resolution No. 2809 recommending the City Council approve
Environmental Assessment No. EA-1177 and Zone Text Amendment No.
ZTA 16-06;
J. On June 6, 2017, the City Council held a public hearing, considered the
Planning Commission's recommendation, and information provided by City
staff and public testimony regarding this Ordinance;
K. The City Council finds that the conditions that were cited in Ordinance No.
1381 that existed in the City at the time (i.e., increased traffic, relatively high
density of housing in a small area, and intense on-street parking) continue
to exist within the City, so it is appropriate to limit the location of accessory
dwelling units to certain areas within the City as described by this ordinance
and pursuant to Government Code section 65852.2(a)(1)(A);
L. The City Council further finds that the prospect of garages being converted
into accessory dwelling units would exacerbate the City's existing on-street
parking problems since converting garages into accessory dwelling units
displaces both the required parking for the primary dwelling as well as
adding street parking demand related to the tenants of the accessory
dwelling units;
M. This Ordinance and its findings are made based upon the entire
administrative record including the Planning Commission's
recommendation, testimony and evidence presented to the City Council at
its June 6, 2017 hearing, and the staff report submitted by the Planning and
Building Safety Department; and
SECTION 2: Factual Findings and Conclusions. The City Council finds that implementing
the proposed ordinance would result in the following:
A. Facilitate the development of accessory dwelling units in the Single-Family
Residential (R-1) and Two-Family (R-2) zones;
B. Accessory dwelling units will be permitted on real property that cannot
consist of more than one lot;
2
108
C. Accessory dwelling units will be permitted only on lots that contain at least
an existing single-family dwelling, or will be constructed in conjunction with
a single-family dwelling;
D. Accessory dwelling units will not be allowed to be sold separately from a
primary dwelling;
E. Accessory dwelling units or the primary dwelling units on a lot will be
required to be owner-occupied;
F. Accessory dwelling units will be restricted to the height and setback
standards applicable to all other accessory structures in their respective
zones;
G. Accessory dwelling units within existing primary dwellings will be restricted
to a maximum size of 1,200 square feet and detached accessory dwelling
units will be limited to 800 square feet. All accessory dwelling units are
subject to the total floor area ratio limitation applicable to the lot;
H. Accessory dwelling units will be required to be compatible in architectural
design with the primary dwelling on a lot;
I. In accordance with Government Code Section 65852.2(d),100 percent of
residential lots that are eligible for an accessory dwelling unit within the City
are within half of a mile of public transit and are, therefore, not required to
provide parking for the accessory unit;
J. Accessory dwelling units will be required to comply with applicable building,
health and fire codes, except where explicitly exempted by Government
Code Section 65852.2; and
K. Conversions of garages and carports required under the provisions of
ESMC Title 15 will be prohibited.
SECTION 3: General Plan Findings. As required under Government Code Section
65860, the ESMC amendments proposed by the Ordinance are consistent with the El
Segundo General Plan as follows:
A. The proposed zone text amendment is in conformity with the Land Use
Element goals, objectives and policies. Specifically, the zone text
amendment is consistent with Land Use Element Goal LU3 and Objectives
LU3-1 and LU3-2 in that the amendment will: a) facilitate the development
of accessory dwelling units in the City's R-1 and R-2 zones as required by
Section 65852.2 of the Government Code; and b) will protect single family
residential uses and preserve the City's low-medium residential nature
through the use of development standards, such as limits to the area,
height, and setbacks for accessory dwelling units. These limits will ensure
accessory dwelling units remain secondary and subordinate to primary
3
109
dwellings on a property and will reduce potential negative impacts on
surrounding properties; and
B. The proposed zone text amendment is consistent with the Housing Element
goals, objectives and policies. Specifically, the zone text amendment is
consistent with Goal No. 4 to remove governmental constraints on housing
development, in that it will remove the location restrictions, lot size, and
parking requirements for accessory dwelling units. In addition, the zone text
amendment is consistent with the goal of assisting in the production of
affordable housing and Program No. 3 in that it will facilitate the
development of accessory units on R-1 zoned lots. Further, the zone text
amendment is consistent with Program No. 6 to facilitate development on
underutilized sites and on small lots, particularly on small lots in the R-2
zone through the elimination of parking requirements for accessory dwelling
units.
SECTION 4: Zone Text Amendment Findings. In accordance with ESMC Chapter 15-26
and based on the findings set forth in Section 2, the proposed zone text amendment is
consistent with and necessary to carry out the general purpose of ESMC Tile 15 as
follows:
A. It is consistent with the purpose of the ESMC, which is to serve the public
health, safety, and general welfare and to provide the economic and social
advantages resulting from an orderly planned use of land resources. In
addition, it is consistent with the purpose of the R-1 and R-2 zones to
promote development of single-family and two-family homes within a safe
and healthy environmental for existing and future residents, in that
accessory dwelling units will conform to the height and setback standards
applicable to accessory structures, will be compatible architecturally with
primary dwellings, and meet all applicable building, health, and fire codes;
and
B. It is necessary to facilitate the development process and ensure the orderly
development of accessory dwelling units on properties in the R-1 and R-2
zones that are compatible with surrounding properties and consistent with
the goals, policies, and objectives of the General Plan as set forth in Section
4 above.
SECTION 5: Environmental Assessment. Because of the facts set forth in Section 2, the
proposed zone text amendment is statutorily exempt from further environmental review
under the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code
§§21000, et seq., "CEQA") and CEQA Guidelines (14 California Code of Regulations
§§15000, et seq.), because it involves the adoption of an ordinance regarding accessory
dwelling units in a single-family or multifamily residential zone to implement the provisions
of section 65852.2 of the Government Code as set forth in section 21080.17 of the Public
Resources Code, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15282(h).

SECTION 10: ESMC Article 15-4E (Second Dwelling Units) is deleted in its entirety
and replaced with the following:
ARTICLE E. ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS
15-4E-1: PURPOSE; FINDINGS.
15-4E-2: GENERAL REQUIREMENTS.
15-4E-3: DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS.
15-4E-4: PLAN REVIEW PROCESS; FEES.
15-4E-1: PURPOSE; FINDINGS.
This Article is adopted pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.2, as
amended by Assembly Bill No. 2299 (effective January 1, 2017), for the
purpose of implementing the City's regulation of accessory dwelling units.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.2(a), this Article designates
areas within the City where accessory dwellings are permitted. Because
accessory dwelling units tend to increase the volume of vehicle traffic within
the city, on-street parking, noise, and other adverse impacts, this Article
restricts the location of accessory dwelling units within single-family
residential zones. Increased traffic not only impacts existing public
infrastructure, such as streets and intersections, but degrades air quality,
increases noise, and can introduce pollutants into the city's storm drains.
Further, the increased density of housing within the city's jurisdiction
impacts public health and safety, and the public welfare by increasing the
demand for public services.
15-4E-2: GENERAL REQUIREMENTS.
A. Definition of "Existing." For purposes of this Article and defining an
allowable space or structure that can be converted to an accessory
dwelling unit, the term "existing" means dwellings or structures that:
1. Lawfully existed on the parcel as of January 1, 2017 or were
the subject of a building permit duly issued before January 1,
2017; and
2. Can be made safely habitable under local building codes at
the determination of the building official.
B. Locations.Accessory dwelling units are permitted by right throughout the
R-1 zone and in the R-2 zone on lots that are less than 4,000 square
feet. Accessory dwelling units must be i) contained within the existing
space of a single-family residence and/or attached to a single-family
residence, ii)within the existing space of an existing accessory structure,
such as a pool house, studio or similar structure with four walls and a
roof (but not including garages), or iii) attached to a detached garage,
7
113
subject to the requirements and development standards in this Code and
state law.
C. "Grandfathered" Locations in the R-1 zone. Notwithstanding
subsections (A) and (B) of this section, accessory dwelling units
proposed on a lot where the side lot line forms a common boundary with
a lot or lots zoned for R-3 (multi-family residential), C-2 (neighborhood
commercial), and CO (corporate office) may be i) contained within other
legally permitted structures (but not including garages), ii) attached to
other legally permitted structures, or iii) be separate detached
structures. Accessory dwelling units on these lots are subject to all other
requirements and development standards in this Code and state law,
with the exception of the building area standards / square footage
limitations in subsections 15-4E-3(C)(1) and 15-4E-3(C)(2).
D. The real property proposed for the accessory dwelling unit may not
consist of more than one lot.
E. The lot must contain an existing single-family dwelling. An accessory
dwelling unit may only be constructed in conjunction with a single-family
dwelling.
F. Separate Sale Prohibited. Accessory dwelling units may not be sold
separately from a primary dwelling.
G. Owner Occupancy Required. The primary dwelling unit or the accessory
dwelling unit must be the primary residence of the property owner of the
lot. If none of the units on the lot are occupied by the owner as the
owner's primary residence, the accessory dwelling unit will automatically
be deemed a nonhabitable space which may not be used as a dwelling
and may not be rented.
H. Covenant Required. Before the city issues a building permit for an
accessory dwelling unit, the property owner must record with the county
recorder a covenant running with the land stating that the accessory
dwelling unit cannot be used in violation of this chapter. The covenant
must be approved by the Director of Planning and Building Safety and
approved as to form by the City Attorney.
I. Release of Covenant. In the event a covenant was previously recorded
for a permitted accessory structure restricting the structure as non-
habitable pursuant to Section 15-4A-6(H) of this Code, before the city
issues a building permit for an accessory dwelling unit, the property
owner must record a release of such covenant with the county recorder,
in a form approved by the Director of Planning and Building Safety and
the City Attorney.
8
114
J. Garage Conversions Prohibited. Garages and carports required under
this Title do not constitute "existing space of a single-family residence or
an existing accessory structure" and any conversion of such a garage or
carport to an accessory dwelling unit is expressly prohibited.
15-4E-3: DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS.
Accessory Dwelling Units must meet the development standards applicable
to accessory structures in the R-1 and R-2 zones and the following
standards:
A. Height: Same as structures in the R-1 and R-2 zones.
B. Setbacks:
1. Attached to and/or within a primary dwelling: same as primary
dwellings in the R-1 and R-2 zones.
2. Attached to a detached garage or within an existing accessory
structure: same as detached accessory structures in the R-1 and R-
2 zones.
3. Exception: No setback shall apply to a non-required portion of an
existing garage or carport that is converted to an accessory dwelling
unit.
C. Building area:
1. Attached to a primary dwelling and/or within the primary dwelling:
Maximum of 49 percent of the total floor area of the combined
dwellings, or 1,200 square feet, whichever is less.
2. Detached: Maximum of 800 square feet.
3. The total area of the primary dwelling and the accessory dwelling unit
may not exceed the maximum permitted floor area of the lot.
D. Density: One accessory dwelling unit per lot. In all cases, accessory
dwelling units are only permitted on lots with a single primary residence.
Properties developed with more than one unit are not permitted to also
have an accessory dwelling unit.
E. Architectural Design: Each unit, whether attached or detached, must be
architecturally compatible with the primary dwelling.
F. Parking: No parking spaces are required for accessory dwelling units
within one half mile of a transit stop.
G. Separate Entrance: If the accessory dwelling unit is attached to or within
the primary dwelling, it must have independent exterior access from the
primary dwelling. Such independent exterior access may not be an
entrance facing the front yard. An independent and separate entrance
to the accessory dwelling unit must be located on the side or at the rear
of the primary dwelling.
9
115
H. The accessory dwelling unit must comply with applicable building, health
and fire codes except where explicitly exempted by Government Code
Section 65852.2. Fire sprinklers for accessory dwelling units are
required only when they are required for the primary dwelling on the lot.
15-4E-4: APPLICATION PROCESS; FEES.
A. Pursuant to Government Code section 65852.2, any application for a
building permit to create an accessory dwelling unit that conforms to this
Article and is otherwise complete shall be ministerially approved within
120 days of application.
B. The applicant must pay any applicable fees, including but not limited to
development impact fees imposed pursuant to Chapter 27A of this title,
in an amount set by city council resolution.
SECTION 11: CONSTRUCTION. This ordinance must be broadly construed in order to
achieve the purposes stated in this ordinance. It is the City Council's intent that the
provisions of this ordinance be interpreted or implemented by the City and others in a
manner that facilitates the purposes set forth in this ordinance.
SECTION 12; ENFORCEABILITY. Repeal of any provision of the El Segundo Municipal
Code does 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 13: VALIDITY OF PREVIOUS CODE SECTIONS. If this entire ordinance
or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, any repeal or
amendment of the ESMC or other city ordinance by this ordinance will be rendered void
and cause such previous ESMC provision or other ordinance to remain in full force and
effect for all purposes.
SECTION 14: 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.
SECTION 15: 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 15

Objective: Champion Economic Development and Fiscal Sustainability
PREPARED BY: Mark Hensley, City Attorney
APPROVED BY: Greg Carpenter,City Manage
BACKGROUND:
The City and ES CenterCal, LLC first entered into a Due Diligence and Ground Lease
Agreement on February 2, 2016. The Agreement contemplates a long-term lease of city-owned
property on the site of the driving range at the golf course subject to numerous conditions
precedent and establishes a Due Diligence Period of one year during which CenterCal is
expected to have satisfied all of them. Some of the conditions precedent have their own
individualized deadlines that are shorter than that overall Due Diligence Period. The Agreement
allows for a one-time extension of 150 days to the Due Diligence Period, for a possible total of
515 days. With the maximum allowable extension of 150 days, the Due Diligence Period would
expire on July 1, 2017.
CenterCal has satisfied many of the conditions precedent and has been working towards
satisfying those that remain outstanding. However, there are still conditions outstanding
including the approval of the land use entitlements which are not scheduled to be before the
Council until later in July. The parties have negotiated a second amendment to the Agreement
that would extend the Due Diligence Period to September 30, 2017, extend some individual
deadlines for various conditions, and eliminate one condition precedent entirely. The modified
deadlines are as follows:
• The Due Diligence Period is extended to September 30, 2017.
• The deadline for the parties to finalize "Exhibit E," a list of permitted exceptions to the
title report, is extended to August 31, 2017.
• The deadline for obtaining sign-off from Chevron USA is extended to the end of the Due
Diligence Period.
• The deadline for the CenterCal Guarantor to demonstrate financial strength to guarantee
construction of the golf course improvements is extended to June 30, 2017.
• The deadline for preparing legal descriptions required by the Agreement is extended to
June 30, 2017.
• The condition precedent requiring the parties to obtain an extension of the SCE License
Agreement is deleted. SCE has made clear it won't amend the license agreement for its
easement under the power lines until the license agreement is near it expiration.
In addition to the deadline modifications, Section 2.1 of the Agreement is modified such
that the initial 20 year term of the lease will begin on the Fixed Rent Commencement Date as
opposed to the Premises Turnover Date. This just clarifies that the operation term runs from
when the improvements are completed rather than when CenterCal has the right to go on the
property and commence construction. Section 8 is amended to allow the minimum insurance
requirements to be satisfied by Topgolf or any other sublessee in lieu of CenterCal.
For ease of reference, modified terms are in bold and underlined.

TERMS
Section 1. Demise
Lessor and Lessee hereby enter into this Lease for purposes of allowing: Lessee to perform
due diligence on the Property; and to provide an opportunity for the parties to potentially satisfy
the Conditions Precedent. Upon the Premises Turnover Date Lessor shall lease the Premises to
Lessee, and Lessee shall lease the Premises from Lessor, upon the terms and conditions set forth
in this Lease.
Section 2. Lease Term
2.1 The "Basic Term" of this Lease shall begin and the Lessee's leasehold interest
shall become effective when all of the Conditions Precedent have been satisfied, Lessee has
delivered the Due Diligence Acceptance Notice, and neither the CenterCal Guarantor nor the
Topgolf Guarantors have withdrawn their Guarantees as provided in Section 5.6 hereof("Premises
Turnover Date"),and shall end on the twentieth(20th)anniversary of the Premises Turnover Date.
The Basic Term shall also be referred to herein as the"Initial Term". The parties agree to execute
and record a memorandum of an addendum to this Lease setting forth the Premises Turnover Date.
While the terms "Lease", "Lessor" and "Lessee" are used throughout this agreement/Lease, the
Lessee shall not be deemed to have a leasehold interest in the Premises until the Premises Turnover
Date.
On the Premises Turnover Date, Lessor shall deliver to Lessee, in conformance with all
applicable laws, and except as otherwise explicitly provided herein exclusive possession and
control of the Premises in its "AS IS" condition except it shall be free of any and all occupants,
liens, encumbrances, and security interests except for non-delinquent real estate taxes,the Parking
License, the License Agreement and the Permitted Exceptions as shown on Exhibit"E."
2.2 Lessee shall have six (6) successive options to extend the term of this Lease, each
for a separate additional period of five (5) years (each, an "Option Period"), from the date upon
which such term would otherwise expire, provided that Lessee shall be entitled to exercise an
Option Period only if at the time of exercise Lessee is in compliance with all of the material terms
of this Lease, including but not limited to all Rent payments being current and the Premises being
open to the public and operating as a driving range with food/beverage service. However, to the
extent Lessee has received a default notice from Lessor and is diligently curing a default in
accordance with Section 20 hereof, this Lease shall not be extended until such time as the default
is cured and then the term may be extended. If Lessee does not cure such default within the time
periods set forth in Section 20 hereof then Lessee shall forfeit the extension rights set forth in this
Section. Subject to the above limitations, unless Lessee gives Lessor at least six (6) months prior
written notice of its intent not to exercise an Option Period to extend this Lease, this Lease shall
automatically be extended for an additional five (5) year term. Each such extension shall be upon
and subject to the same terms, covenants and conditions as those herein specified except that
Lessee may not again exercise any previously exercised option under this section.
The words "Lease Term, term of this lease", "the term hereof', or words of like import
shall be deemed to refer to the Initial Term of this Lease provided for in Section 2.1 hereof together
with any extension or renewal thereof which shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of
this Lease or by reason of the exercise of an option or right granted hereunder.
Section 3. Rent
3.1 Lessee covenants and agrees to pay to Lessor, promptly when due, without notice
or demand and without deduction or setoff of any amount whatsoever unless otherwise specifically
provided in this Lease, the following amounts: (a) the amount of Eighteen Thousand and No/100
Dollars($18,000.00)per month("Initial Rent")from the Premises Turnover Date until the"Fixed
Rent Commencement Date" (as defined in Section 3.2), not to exceed One Hundred Eighty
Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($180,000) in the aggregate, and (b) the amount of Forty-Three
Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($43,750) per month ($525,000 per year) as rent for the
Premises from the Fixed Rent Commencement Date through the end of the Lease Term, except as
increased as specified below (the "Fixed Rent"). In addition to the Fixed Rent, Lessee shall pay
to Lessor: (i)for each calendar year during the term of this Lease, an amount equal to three percent
(3%) of the Gross Receipts from all beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) sold on the Premises
during the applicable calendar year ("Variable Rent"); and (ii) its pro-rata share of the
consideration payable under the License Agreement as and when required by the License
Agreement based upon the land area of the Premises located within the area subject to the License
relative to all of the land area of the Premises and the Golf Course located within the area subject
to the License. The obligation of Lessee to pay Fixed Rent, Variable Rent and other sums
hereunder may be satisfied by any person or entity making payment of Fixed Rent, Variable Rent
or other sums to Lessor as hereinafter provided. The term"Gross Receipts"wherever used in this
Lease shall mean the aggregate amount of sales (whether for cash, on credit or otherwise) of all
alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages made and rendered on the Premises in connection with the
business operation conducted on the Premises, but shall not include any federal, state, municipal
or other sales, value added or retailer's excise taxes paid or accrued„ regardless of whether such
taxes are collected from customers or absorbed , sales to employees, complimentary sales,
donations for charitable events, discounts afforded customers from the redemption of coupons,
fees paid to credit card issuers and processors, bulk and/or intercompany transfers of inventory
(provided no such transfer is made to avoid liability to Variable Rent), or alcohol beverage license
fees (if any).
Within one hundred (120) days after the end of each calendar year following the Variable
Rent Commencement Date (defined in Section 3.2 below), Lessee shall deliver to Landlord a
written statement setting forth the amount of Gross Receipts for the preceding calendar year.
Simultaneously with the delivery of such statement, Lessee shall pay to Landlord the Variable
Rent shown by such statement to be then due and owing. In computing the Variable Rent for the
first calendar year following the Variable Rent Commencement Date, if such calendar year shall
contain less than 365 days, then the Variable Rent shall be multiplied by fraction, the numerator
of which shall be the number of days in such shorter calendar year, and the denominator of which
shall be 365.
3.2 The first installment of Initial Rent shall be payable on the Premises Turnover Date
in a pro-rata amount based upon the number of days remaining in the month. The first installment
of Fixed Rent shall be payable from the earlier of(i) the date that the Premises opens to the public
for business or (ii) ten (10) months following the Premises Turnover Date, subject to Force
Majeure as defined in Section 30 and delays caused by Lessor(the "Fixed Rent Commencement
Date"). All Rent (other than Variable Rent) from and after the Fixed Rent Commencement Date
shall be paid in advance, on the first day of each month. Upon termination of this Lease, Rent
payable for less than a full month shall be paid in a pro-rata amount based on the number of days
that the Lease was in effect for the month. The obligation to pay Variable Rent shall commence
on the third anniversary of the Fixed Rent Commencement Date ("Variable Rent
Commencement Date"). Within ninety days of the termination of this Lease, Lessee shall pay to
Lessor all Variable Rent payments owed to the Lessor based upon the payments being made in
arrears. This agreement shall not be construed as giving Lessor any partnership or other interest
in Lessee's or Topgolfs business. It is understood and agreed by Lessor that there has been no
representation of any kind whatsoever made by Lessee or Topgolf as to the amount of Gross
Receipts which may or shall be made from the Premises during any year of the term of this Lease.
3.3 The Fixed Rent shall, for the first five (5) years following the Fixed Rent
Commencement Date, increase at the commencement of Years 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 by two percent
(2%) and at the commencement of each five-year period thereafter (i.e., Year 11, Year 16, Year
21, etc. (assuming the term of this Lease has been extended)),the Fixed Rent shall increase by ten
percent (10%) (which shall include any Option Periods that may be exercised by Tenant).
3.4 All amounts payable under Section 3.1 above, as well as all other amounts payable
by Lessee to Lessor under the terms of this Lease,,shall be paid at the address of Lessor set forth
in Section 31.1, or at such other place within the continental limits of the United States as Lessor
shall from time to time designate by written notice to Lessee,in lawful money of the United States,
which shall be legal tender in payment of all debts and dues at the time of payment.
3.5 It is intended that the Initial Rent, the Fixed Rent, the Variable Rent and any
Additional Rent provided for in this Lease (together "Rent") shall be an absolutely net return to
Lessor throughout the Lease Term, free of any expense, charge, or other deduction whatsoever,
including all claims, demands, or setoffs of any nature whatsoever, except as otherwise explicitly
provided in this Lease.
3.6 Except as may be provided in this Lease, Lessee shall also pay without notice and
without abatement, deduction, or setoff, as "Additional Rent," all sums, impositions, costs, and
other payments that Lessee in any of the provisions of this Lease assumes or agrees to pay, and in
the event of any nonpayment, but subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease and all
applicable laws, Lessor shall have (in addition to all other rights and remedies) all the rights and
remedies provided for in this Lease or by law or equity in the case of nonpayment of the Rent.
Section 4. Use
4.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, Lessee may only use the
Premises, and the Premises Improvements, for a driving range and related clubhouse with
restaurant, bar, lounge, grill and event space, subject to the provisions of Section 4.2 (the
"Permitted Use"). Lessee shall not be permitted to conduct any of the driving range or clubhouse
operations on the Premises until the Golf Course Improvements described in Exhibit "D" are
substantially completed(which for purposes hereof means that the Golf Course Improvements are
completed subject to minor alterations or corrections, that is, "punch list" items and that the nine-
hole course, clubhouse, pro-shop and bathrooms are capable of being open for business) as
reasonably determined by Lessor. Lessor acknowledges and agrees that the operation of a Topgolf
driving range, restaurant, bar, lounge, grill and event space, that is similar with regard to the
current operations of that certain existing Topgolf facility located at 2700 Esperanza Crossing,
Austin, Texas 78758 and is generally consistent with regard to its construction with those
renderings and descriptions attached hereto as Exhibits "D" and "G" and by this reference
incorporated herein (the "Prototype Facility"), including a driving range and related teaching
facilities and both indoor and outdoor caf6 /bar/ grill facilities serving alcoholic beverages, and
meeting and banquet facilities, also serving alcoholic beverages (referred to herein as a "Toveolf
Facility") is a Permitted Use under this Section 4.1.
4.2 Lessee shall not use or occupy, or permit or suffer all or any part of the Premises
or any Premises Improvements to be used or occupied except as provided in Section 4.1 and
Lessee's use of the Premises is further restricted and cannot be used: (i) for any unlawful or illegal
business, use, or purpose, or (ii) for any purpose or in any way that is in violation of a lawfully
issued existing certificate of occupancy for the Premises, or of any "Legal Requirements" (as
defined below), including but not limited to "Legal Requirements" respecting "Hazardous
Substances" (as defined in Section 42). For the purposes of this Lease, the term "Legal
Requirements" means all present and future laws, ordinances, orders, judgments, rules,
regulations, and requirements of all federal, state, regional, and municipal governments,
departments,agencies,commissions,boards,and officers, foreseen or unforeseen,ordinary as well
as extraordinary, applicable to the Premises or to the use or manner of uses of the Premises or any
Premises Improvements or the owners or users of any Premises Improvements.
4.3 Nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed to be a gift or dedication of any
portion of the Premises to the general public or for the general public or for any public purpose
whatsoever, or an agreement to do so, it being the intention of Lessor and Lessee that this Lease
shall be strictly limited to and for the purposes herein expressed and strictly for the benefit of
Lessor and Lessee. Unless required otherwise by a governmental authority, Lessee shall take
commercially reasonable actions to prevent the Premises from being used by any individual or
entity, or the public, from and after the Premises Turnover Date, in such manner as might
reasonably make possible a claim or claims of adverse usage, adverse possession, or prescription,
or of implied dedication, of the Premises or any Premises Improvements or any portion thereof.
Section 5. Due Diligence; Condition of Premises
5.1 Due Diligence Period. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 5.6 or as
otherwise expressly provided herein, Lessee shall have until twelve (12) months from the
Commencement Date (such period, as the same may be extended hereunder, is referred to herein
as the "Due Diligence Period") to complete its due diligence investigations of the Premises.
During the Due Diligence Period, Lessee and Lessee's authorized representatives, during normal
business hours, shall have the right to enter upon the Property for the purposes of conducting
studies, inspections and investigations of the Property (without unreasonably interfering with the
operations of the current facilities located on the Property) and analyzing all documents and
matters pertaining to the Property as Lessee reasonably deems necessary or desirable in connection
with its leasing of the Premises, including geotechnical, seismic, mechanical, engineering and
environmental testing, and to satisfy itself in its sole and absolute discretion that the Property is
suitable for the Golf Course Improvements and the Premises Improvements and Lessee's intended
use of the Premises, including without limitation, zoning classifications, building regulations,
governmental entitlements, land use entitlements permitting private recreational use at the
Premises (including without limitation, a general plan amendment, specific plan designation,
alcohol permits, and lot line adjustments), a determination under the California Environmental
Quality Act("CEQA") on all actions subject to CEQA(including without limitation the leasehold
interest that may be granted to Lessee under this Lease), and all other legal matters applicable to
the Premises (collectively, the "Required Project Entitlements"), all at Lessee's sole expense
(collectively,the"Investigation"). Notwithstanding the foregoing,the Due Diligence Period may
be extended by Lessee for an additional one hundred fifty (150) days in duration by Lessee
providing written notice to Lessor before the end of the Due Diligence Period to secure the
approvals it reasonably deems necessary for the operation of the Premises as contemplated by this
Lease. If Lessor has not received a notice from Lessee that Lessee has elected to exercise a
permitted extension of the Due Diligence Period, then it shall be presumed that Lessee intended
not to extend the Due Diligence Period and the Due Diligence Period will be deemed to have
expired and not been so extended. The Due Diligence Period shall not exceed five hundred fifteen
(515) days except in the event that any person or entity that is not a party to this Lease nor a
guarantor of this Lease challenges any of the Required Project Entitlements, then the Due
Diligence Period shall automatically be extended to end upon the thirtieth(30th)day following the
final disposition of any such challenge (i.e. the entry of a non-appealable order of a court of
competent jurisdiction dismissing such challenge, granting some or all of the relief sought by such
person or entity, or settlement of the challenge), provided that Lessee is diligently defending and
pursuing such challenge. Except with respect to provisions that expressly survive the termination
of this Agreement,upon expiration of the Due Diligence Period(which shall not be extended under
any circumstance by Force Majeure), the failure to satisfy the Conditions Precedent and the
termination of this Lease, all of the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate
and each party represents and warrants that it understands and agrees that it shall have no right to
file a legal or equitable action against the other party if the Conditions Precedent are not satisfied
during the Due Diligence Period,unless the failed condition was a condition that failed because of
a breach of this Agreement by the other party or because of such party's fraud or willful
misconduct. For the avoidance of doubt, the mere exercise of discretionary authority by the City
is not a breach of this Lease or fraud or willful misconduct by the City or Lessor,provided that in
no event shall a party's damages in connection with such legal or equitable action exceed One
Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($100,000.00).
5.2 Cooperation and Entry Notice. Lessor and Lessee agree to reasonably cooperate during
the Due Diligence Period, including but not limited to Lessor providing public information to
Lessee in Lessee's efforts to obtain approvals from other governmental agencies. Lessee agrees
to make reasonable efforts to notify Lessor, a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours before each
entry onto the Premises and/or contact with employees on the Premises.
5.3 Title Due Diligence. At the Premises Turnover Date, the real property comprising
the Premises must be free from all easements, encumbrances, or restrictions other than those set
forth on Exhibit "E", which will be finalized and attached hereto within sixty(60) days from the
Commencement Date (the "Permitted Exceptions"). Lessee at its option may procure an ALTA
extended leasehold owner's policy of title insurance from Chicago Title Insurance Company(the
"Title Company" or "Escrowee") which policy must be free and clear of any exceptions or
objections other than the Permitted Exceptions (the "Title Policy"). The Lessor shall have no
obligation to take any action to remove any exceptions or objections that the Title Company may
place on the Title Policy. The cost of a standard leasehold title policy and/or the Title Policy shall
be borne by Lessee.
Lessee shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Title Company to deliver to Lessee a Preliminary
Report issued by the Title Company covering the Premises (the "Preliminary Report"), together
with true and legible copies of all documents evidencing matters of record shown as exceptions to
title thereon ("Underlying Documents") as soon as practicable after the Commencement Date.
The Preliminary Report and Underlying Documents shall hereinafter sometimes be collectively
referred to as the "Title Documents". Lessee shall have the right to object to any exceptions
contained in the Preliminary Report, in Lessee's sole and absolute discretion by giving written
notice to Lessor within fifteen (15) business days after Lessee has received the Title Documents.
Lessee shall have the right to object to any matters revealed by the Survey (as defined below) by
giving written notice to Lessor within fifteen (15) business days after Lessee has received the
Survey. If Lessee disapproves of any matter affecting title or the Survey (the "Title
Disapproval"), Lessor shall have the option until 5:00 p.m. on the day that is five (5) business
days after delivery to Lessor of the Title Disapproval to elect in Lessor's sole and absolute
discretion by written notice to Lessee ("Lessor's Title Response") to (i) cure or remove such
disapproved matter(s) on or before the Premises Turnover Date or(ii)not cure some or all of such
disapproved matters,in which case Lessee may,by written notice to Lessor within five(5)business
days after Lessor's Title Response, elect to waive this contingency or terminate this Lease (in
which event the parties shall have no further obligations to one another except with respect to the
obligations that survive the termination of this Lease). Lessor's failure to timely notify Lessee of
its election aforesaid shall conclusively be deemed to be Lessors' election not to cure any
objection. If Lessee elects not to terminate this Lease as provided above, Lessee agrees that the
matters expressly approved or waived by Lessee in writing shall added and be attached to this
Lease as Exhibit "E" as the "Permitted Exceptions"). Notwithstanding the above, Lessor shall
have no obligation to take any action to remove any exceptions or objections that the Title
Company may place on the Title Policy,whether or not Lessee disapproves such matters. Lessee's
approval of the Preliminary Report shall be without prejudice to Lessee's right to disapprove the
"Survey" (defined below) as provided above, or any supplementary reports issued by Title
Company except those that arise after the Premises Turnover Date.The cost of a standard leasehold
title policy and/or the Title Policy shall be borne by Lessee.
Within five (5) business days after the Commencement Date, Lessor shall provide Lessee with a
copy of any existing ALTA survey of the Real Property in Lessor's possession, if any (the
"Existing Survey"). Lessee shall be responsible, as its sole cost and expense, for thereafter
obtaining and paying for any update to the Existing Survey ("Survey") to meet the requirements
of Lessee or its lender for the Title Policy.
5.4 Indemnification. All Investigations shall be at the sole risk and expense of Lessee
and Lessee shall defend,indemnify and hold Lessor and its employees,agents,officers and elected
officials, (collectively the "Indemnified Parties") harmless for, from and against any and all
claims, causes of action, demands, injuries, damages, costs, expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees) or liability(collectively, the "Liability") imposed upon, suffered by, incurred by
or asserted against the Indemnified Parties as a result of or relating to the Investigations conducted
by or on behalf of Lessee in connection with the Property, except for damages resulting from the
negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor or those acting at its request or on its behalf or the
discovery of Hazardous Substances (as defined in Section 42) on the Property that were not
released on the Property by Lessee or its agents. However, if Lessee takes possession of the
Premises then it shall be responsible for all Hazardous Substance (as defined in Section 42) clean-
up costs that are required for purposes of completing the Premises Improvements on the Property.
Lessee shall maintain and shall cause any person performing work or investigation on the Premises
on behalf of Lessee to maintain a policy of comprehensive general liability insurance with
premiums fully paid, issued by an insurance company reasonably acceptable to Lessee in an
amount not less than $2,000,000.00 to insure the risks covered by the indemnity provided above,
which policy shall name the Indemnified Parties as insureds. The insurance shall not act as a limit
on Lessee's Liability. This indemnity shall survive any termination or expiration of this Lease.
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Lease, in the event that the Conditions Precedent are
not satisfied and Lessee does not take possession of the Premises,then Lessee shall return the Golf
Course and Premises to substantially their same condition as they existed prior to the
Commencement Date.

into an escrow agreement (the "Escrow Agreement" )with Lessor and Escrow Holder solely for
the purpose of funding a portion of the cost to purchase and install lights on the golf course on the
Property for the purpose of allowing golf to be played on the golf course during twilight and after
sunset hours. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that if the City shall not have installed lights
on the golf course within five (5) years from the date of the Escrow Agreement, then the funds
shall be promptly returned to the Lessee. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary,
the parties agree and acknowledge that in connection with obtaining the Required Project
Entitlements Lessee will obtain a parking study from a third party consultant. In the event that
such parking study reveals that the parking requirements for the Golf Course and the Premises
require an adjustment of the total number of parking spaces needed for the Golf Course or that
providing Lessor with thirty (30) exclusive parking spaces during the Golf Course's hours of
operation as described in clause (x) hereof is incompatible with the Permitted Use and Lessor's
use of the Golf Course, then prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, the parties shall work
together to modify the Parking License (and the number of parking spaces and exclusive parking
spaces granted thereunder) in such a manner so as to be compatible with the Permitted Use and
the Lessor's operation of the Golf Course.
5.6 Lease Termination. Items (vi), (vii) and (viii) of Section 5.5 shall be collectively
referred to as the"Preliminary Conditions Precedent." If, on or before the expiration of the time
periods set forth for any of the Preliminary Conditions Precedent, Lessee shall determine in its
sole and absolute discretion that any of the Preliminary Conditions Precedent will not be satisfied,
then Lessee may notify Lessor of such determination at any time before or within ten (10) days
after the expiration of such applicable time period that it has elected to terminate this Lease. With
respect to the Preliminary Conditions Precedent set forth in items (vi) and (viii) above, if, on or
before the expiration of the time periods set forth in items (vi) and (viii) above Lessor shall
determine in its sole and absolute discretion that items (vi) and (viii) will not be satisfied within
the applicable time period,then Lessor may notify Lessee of such determination at any time before
or within ten (10) days after the expiration of such applicable time period that it has elected to
terminate this Lease. Additionally, if Lessee does not file its application for the Required Project
Entitlements within the time period set forth in 5.5 (i)(A), then unless the parties agree to extend
the time period in writing,this Lease shall terminate except those provisions that expressly survive
a termination of this Lease. If this Lease is not so terminated by either Lessee or Lessor, then
Lessee shall continue with its Investigation and shall have the right to terminate this Lease as set
forth herein, including without limitation, the Conditions Precedent, and Lessor shall have also
have the right to terminate this Lease by notice to Lessee if the Conditions Precedent are not
satisfied within the Due Diligence Period; Lessee may terminate this Lease for any reason at any
time in its sole and absolute discretion during the Due Diligence Period by notifying Lessor of
such determination (the "Due Diligence Termination Notice"), whereupon any termination by
Lessor or Lessee of this Lease and the obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate (and no
party hereto shall have any further obligations in connection herewith except under those
provisions that expressly survive a termination of this Lease). Each party hereto agrees to
diligently pursue the satisfaction of all Conditions Precedent within the time frames set forth
herein. In the event that Lessee determines to proceed with the leasing of the Premises and all of
the Conditions Precedent are satisfied and thereby waive its right to terminate this Lease as
provided in this Section 5.6, then Lessee shall notify Lessor of such determination in writing on
or before 5:00 p.m. (Pacific time) on the date that the Due Diligence Period shall expire (the"Due
Diligence Acceptance Notice"). If the Lessee delivers the Due Diligence Acceptance Notice and
neither the Topgolf Guarantors or the CenterCal Guarantor have withdrawn their Guarantees by
providing written notice of such within five (5) business days of the Due Diligence Acceptance
Notice then the Guarantees shall be deemed to be in full force and effect and the Topgolf
Guarantors and the CenterCal Guarantor shall have waived any rights, if any, to claim that their
respective Guarantees are not in full force and effect. If either Guarantor has given written notice
of the withdrawal of their Guaranty then this Lease shall be deemed terminated and the parties
shall have no further obligations under this Lease except those that expressly survive the
termination of this Lease. The Due Diligence Acceptance Notice shall be deemed to be a
confirmation from Lessee that the parties have entered into the Sublease of the Premises further
described in clause (iv) of Section 5.5 hereof. In the event that Lessee shall fail to deliver either
the Due Diligence Termination Notice or the Due Diligence Acceptance Notice to Lessor on or
before 5:00 p.m. (Pacific time) on the date that is the tenth business day following the expiration
of the Due Diligence Period then this Lease shall expire and the obligations of the parties hereunder
shall terminate (and no party hereto shall have any further obligations in connection herewith
except under those provisions that expressly survive a termination of this Lease). In addition to
the foregoing, if, on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period the Conditions Precedent
have not been satisfied or the City does not approve of the Required Project Entitlements,then this
Lease and the obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate and no party hereto shall have
any further obligations in connection herewith except under those provisions that expressly survive
a termination of this Lease. It is expressly understood that the City is not committing to issuance
of the Required Project Entitlements, including the CEQA determination or that the Conditions
Precedent shall otherwise be satisfied by executing this Lease as such are subject to a separate
discretionary land use entitlement processes, including public hearings, and/or are outside of the
City's control and/or are, as applicable, subject to the approval of the City.
Within five (5) business days of the delivery by Lessee to Lessor of the Acceptance Notice, so
long as neither the Topgolf Guarantors nor the CenterCal Guarantor have provided written notice
that it has withdrawn its Guarantee, Lessor and Lessee shall each execute a memorandum
evidencing this Lease that may be recorded by Lessee at Lessee's sole cost and expense and in the
form of Exhibit 'T." If, for any reason 'at any time during the Term of this Lease the legal
description of the Premises changes, Lessor and Lessee agree to execute and record a new
Memorandum of Lease,modifying the original Memorandum to reflect such new legal description.
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the parties are under no obligation to modify the legal
description of the Premises. In the event this Lease is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof the
parties agree, upon written request of either party, to execute and record evidence of such
termination of the above Memorandum.
Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Lessee shall have no right to
terminate this Lease and Topgolf Guarantors and Centercal Guarantor shall have no right to
terminate or diminish their obligations under their respective guarantees following the Premises
Turnover Date through the time that the Golf Course Improvements and the Premises
Improvements are completed and a certificate of occupancy has been issued for the Golf Course
and the Premises, except for termination due to a material default of this Lease by Lessor that
Lessor has not remedied after being notified of the default and afforded the opportunity to cure it
as provided in Section 19. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, during construction of the Golf
Course Improvements or the Premises Improvements, Lessee discovers that due to the discovery
of Hazardous Substances (as defined in.Section 42) on or under the Golf Course or Premises after
the Turnover Date which: (i) could not have not been reasonably discovered by Lessee as part of
its investigation of the Premises and Golf Course; or (ii) were not caused by Lessee, its agents,
contractors, employees, tenants, occupants or invitees or otherwise resulting from Lessee's use of
the Premises; and Lessee is not able to construct its contemplated Premises Improvements in
accordance with desired or approved plans, site plans and the Required Project Entitlements,
Lessee shall be obligated to return the Golf Course and Premises to the same or better condition,
including all improvements that existed thereon,they were in prior to the Premises Turnover Date
and terminate this Lease and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Lease
except as expressly set forth herein.
Upon any termination of this Lease pursuant to this Section 5, and provided that Lessor is
not in default of any material provision hereunder, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor, within ten (10)
days of such termination and without any representation or warranty whatsoever as to the truth,
accuracy or completeness of such information and Lessor shall rely on such information at
Lessor's sole risk and expense, originals or copies of all studies, reports, maps, documents and
other material obtained by Lessee from third parties as part of Lessee's Investigation that are in
Lessee's possession and that Lessee is not expressly prohibited from providing to Lessor.
5.7 Survival. All those provisions of this Section 5 whose full performance are not
accomplished prior to any termination of this Lease shall survive such termination to allow such
performance within a reasonable time. However,this provision shall not extend the Due Diligence
Period, provide additional time for satisfying the Conditions Precedent or in any way result in a
leasehold or other possessory interest to be created in the Lessee or any other party with respect to
the Premises or the Property.
Section 6. Liens
6.1 Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease, Lessee shall have no power
to do any act or to make any contract that may create or be the foundation for any lien, mortgage,
or other encumbrance on the reversion or other estate of Lessor, or on any interest of Lessor in the
Property.
6.2 Lessee shall not suffer or permit any liens to attach to the interest of Lessor or the
interest of Lessee in all or any part of the Property by reason of any work, labor, services, or
materials done for, or supplied to, or claimed to have been done for or supplied to, Lessee or
anyone occupying or holding an interest in all or any part of any the Golf Course Improvements
on the Property or the Premises Improvements on the Premises through or under Lessee;provided,
that if any such lien shall at any time be filed against the Property, Lessee shall cause the same to
be discharged of record within sixty(60) days after the date of filing the same by either payment,
deposit, or bond. Lessee may, however, postpone its obligation to discharge a lien arising out of
work done by or for Lessee if Lessee provides Lessor or any prospective purchaser of Lessor's fee
interest with title insurance that insures Lessor's title and either: (i) omits the lien, or (ii) insures
against collection of the debt underlying the lien, and Lessee shall not be in default of its
obligations under this Section 6.2 during any such period of postponement, provided such title
insurance is provided within the aforesaid sixty(60) day period, at Lessee's expense.
6.3 Subject to Section 12, unless otherwise set forth to the contrary herein, nothing in
this Lease shall be deemed to be, or be construed in any way as constituting,the consent or request
of Lessor, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any person, firm, or corporation for
the performance of any labor or the furnishing of,any materials for any construction, rebuilding,
alteration, or repair of or to the Property or to any Golf
Course Improvements or Premises Improvements, or as giving Lessee any right, power, or
authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials
that might in any way give rise to the right to file any lien against Lessor's interest in the Property
or against Lessor's interest, if any, in the Golf Course Improvements or Premises Improvements.
Lessee is not intended to be an agent of Lessor for the construction of any Golf Course
Improvements or Premises Improvements on the Property. Lessor shall have the right to post and
keep posted at all reasonable times on the Property and on any Golf Course Improvements or
Premises Improvements, any notices that Lessor shall be required to post for the protection of
Lessor, the Property, and of the Golf Course Improvements or Premises Improvements from any
such lien. The foregoing shall not be construed to diminish or vitiate any rights of Lessee in this
Lease to construct, alter, or add to any Golf Course Improvements or Premises Improvements in
accordance with the terms of this Lease.
Section 7. Utilities, Taxes, and Other Charges
7.1 Lessee shall pay or cause to be paid all charges for water, gas, electricity, garbage,
telephone, sanitary sewer, storm water, drainage, and any and all other services used by Lessee in
or upon the Premises or any Premises Improvements.
7.2 Subject to Section 7.7, Lessee shall pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and
discharged, before any fine,penalty, interest, or cost may be added for nonpayment, all real estate
taxes, personal property taxes, privilege taxes, excise taxes, business and occupation taxes, gross
sales charges, assessments (including but not limited to, assessments for public improvements or
benefits),and all other governmental impositions and charges of every kind and nature whatsoever,
whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the parties and regardless of whether
the same shall be extraordinary or ordinary, general or special, unforeseen or foreseen, or similar
or dissimilar to any of the foregoing which, at any time during the Lease Term following the
Premises Turnover Date, shall be or become due and payable and which:
7.2.1 Shall be levied, assessed, or imposed against the Premises or any Premises
Improvements or any interest of Lessor or Lessee under this Lease; or
7.2.2 Shall be or become liens against the Premises or any Premises
Improvements or any interest of Lessor or Lessee under this Lease unless caused by or on behalf
of Lessor; or
7.2.3 Shall be levied, assessed, or imposed on or against Lessor by reason of any
actual or asserted engagement by Lessee, or by Lessor at the direction of, directly or indirectly, in
any business, occupation, or other activity in connection with the Premises or any Premises
Improvements; or
7.2.4 Shall be levied, assessed, or imposed on or in connection with the
ownership, leasing, operation,management,maintenance,repair,rebuilding,use, or occupancy of
the Premises or any Premises Improvements under or by virtue of any present or future Legal
Requirement, it being the intention of the parties that, insofar as the same may lawfully be done,
Lessor shall be free from all such expenses and all such real estate taxes, personal property taxes,
privilege taxes,excise taxes,business and occupation taxes, gross sales taxes, occupational license
taxes, water charges, sewer charges, assessments, and all other governmental impositions and
charges of every kind and nature whatsoever (all of such taxes, water charges, sewer charges,
assessments,and other governmental impositions and charges that Lessee is obligated to pay being
collectively called"Tax" or"Taxes").
7.3 If by law any Tax is payable, or may at the option of the taxpayer be paid, in
installments, Lessee may,whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance,pay the same,
and any accrued interest on any unpaid balance, in installments as each installment becomes due
and payable, but in any event before any fine, penalty, interest, or cost may be added for
nonpayment of any installment or interest. With respect to any assessments for public
improvements or any similar assessments, Lessee may request amortization of such assessments
over the longest period permitted by governmental authority so long as such does not exceed the
Basic Term or any extension thereof exercised by Lessee. Lessee shall be obligated to pay off any
unpaid balance of any such installment payment plan upon the termination of this Lease.
7.4 Any Tax relating to a fiscal period of the taxing authority, a part of which is within
the Lease Term and a part of which is not within the Lease Term, shall be apportioned and adjusted
between Lessor and Lessee so that Lessee shall pay only the portions that correspond with the
portion of such fiscal periods included within such period. Any such adjustments shall be resolved,
as applicable, at the Premises Turnover Date and the expiration of the Lease Term.
7.5 Lessee covenants to furnish to Lessor, within thirty (30) days after the last date
when any Tax must be paid by Lessee as provided in this section, official receipts, if such receipts
are then available to Lessee, of the appropriate taxing authority, or other proof reasonably
satisfactory to Lessor, evidencing payment.
7.6 Lessee shall have the right at Lessee's expense to contest or review the amount or
validity of any Tax or to seek a reduction in the assessed valuation on which any Tax is based, by
appropriate legal proceedings. Lessee may defer payment of such contested Tax on condition,
however, that if such contested Tax is not paid beforehand and if such legal proceedings shall not
operate to prevent the enforcement of the collection of the Tax so contested and shall not prevent
the sale of the Premises or any Premises Improvements to satisfy the same, then before instituting
any such proceedings, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a surety company bond,cash deposit,or other
security reasonably satisfactory to Lessor as security for the payment of such Tax, in an amount
sufficient to pay such Tax,together with all interest and penalties in connection with such Tax and
all charges that might be assessed against the Premises or any Premises Improvements in the legal
proceedings. On termination of such legal proceedings, the security originally deposited shall be
applied to the payment, removal, and discharge of the Tax and the interest and penalties in
connection with the Tax and the charges and costs accruing in such legal proceedings and the
balance, if any, shall be paid to Lessee. If such security shall be insufficient for this purpose,
Lessee shall forthwith pay over to Lessor an amount sufficient,together with the security originally
deposited, to pay the same. Lessee shall not be entitled to interest on any money deposited
pursuant to this section.
7.7 Any contest as to the validity or amount of any real or personal property tax, or
assessed valuation on which such tax was computed or based, whether before or after payment,
may be made by Lessee in the name of Lessor or of Lessee, or both, as Lessee shall determine,
and Lessor agrees that it will cooperate with Lessee in any such contest to such extent as Lessee
may reasonably request, and Lessee covenants to indemnify and save Lessor harmless from any
such costs or expenses. Lessee shall be entitled to any refund of any such Tax and penalties or
interest that have been paid by Lessee.
7.8 Lessee shall be responsible and shall pay or cause to be paid all costs directly or
indirectly related to Lessee's development and use of the Premises and Premises Improvements
constructed thereon.
7.9 The parties shall use reasonable efforts to see that all communications from
governmental authorities respecting Taxes are sent directly by such authorities to Lessee. The
certificate, advice,receipt, or bill of the appropriate official designated by law to make or issue the
same or to receive payment of any Tax or nonpayment of such Tax, shall be prima facie evidence
that such Tax is due and unpaid or has been paid at the time of the making or issuance of such
certificate, advice, receipt, or bill.
Section 8. Insurance
Lessee,at its expense,shall maintain at all times during the Lease Term commercial general
liability insurance in respect of the Premises and use of the Premises with Lessor as additional
insured, with five million dollars ($5,000,000.00) in "Constant Dollars" (as defined below)
minimum combined single-limit coverage, or its equivalent. Such insurance shall include
contractual liability coverage in such amount for Lessee's indemnification and other obligations
contained herein. Such insurance policy shall be written as a primary policy and shall not be
contributing with or be in excess of the coverage that either Lessor or Lessee may carry and shall
be issued in the name of Lessee,with Indemnified Parties as being included in the insurance policy
definition of who is an additional insured, and shall be primary to any insurance available to
Lessor. Lessee shall also maintain during the Basic Term, at no expense to Lessor, fire and
extended coverage insurance sufficient to replace all Premises Improvements notwithstanding the
amounts set forth below. Such policies of insurance shall be issued by good, responsible
companies that are reasonably acceptable to Lessor and qualified to do business in the state of
California. An insurance certificate or certificates evidencing such insurance shall be delivered to
Lessor prior to the Commencement Date (evidencing coverage in the amount of two Million
Dollars ($2,000,000) covering the Due Diligence Period), and thereafter prior to the Premises
Turnover Date (evidencing coverage in the amount of five million dollars ($5,000,000)), and
renewal policies shall be delivered to Lessor within ten(10) days before the expiration of the term
of each such policy or policies. As often as any such policy or policies shall expire or terminate,
renewal or additional policies shall be procured and maintained by Lessee in like manner and to
like extent. All policies of insurance must contain a provision that the company writing the policy
will give Lessor thirty (30) days' written notice in advance of any cancellation, non-renewal
substantial change of coverage, or the effective date of any reduction in amount of insurance.
During the term of this Lease, Lessor shall maintain,or cause to be maintained,in full force
and effect, on and with respect to the Golf Course, either proof of self-insurance, or insurance
through a joint powers authority, reasonably acceptable to Lessee in the amounts and with
additional insured requirements set forth in this paragraph or policies o£ (i) commercial general
liability insurance, written on an "occurrence" policy form, with bodily injury and property
damage coverage arising out of or relating to Lessor's ownership, business operations, use or
occupancy of the Golf Course, which shall name Lessee, Lessee's first mortgagee, and Topgolfs
first mortgagee and Topgolf as additional insureds as their respective interests may appear, and(ii)
first party property insurance written on a "special form" policy covering loss or damage to the
improvements on the Golf Course for not less than the amount of the full replacement value of
such improvements. The limits of the commercial general liability policy shall be at least five
Million Dollars($5,000,000)per person,with a combined single limit of not less than five Million
Dollars ($5,000,000.00) on a "per occurrence" basis (bodily injury and property damage), or in
such higher amounts and with such additional coverages as Lessor may be required pursuant to
agreement with any mortgage lender of Lessor or pursuant to any other contractual agreement
relating to the Golf Course or any part thereof to which Lessor is a party. At Lessee's request,
Lessor shall furnish appropriate certificates of such insurance to Lessee.
The insurance required of Lessee and Lessor by this provision or otherwise in this Lease
shall not limit such party's liability under any indemnity provision set forth in this Lease or any
other liability that such party may have under this Lease.
"Constant Dollars" shall mean the value of the U.S. dollar to which such phrase refers,
as adjusted from time to time. An adjustment shall occur on the 1st day of June of the sixth (6th)
full calendar year following the date of this Lease, and thereafter at five (5) year intervals.
Constant Dollars shall be determined by multiplying the dollar amount to be adjusted by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the Current Index Number and the denominator of which is the Base
Index Number. The "Base Index Number" shall be the level of the Index for the year of the
Commencement Date; the "Current Index Number" shall be the level of the Index for the year
immediately preceding the adjustment year; the "Index" shall be the Consumer Price Index for
All Urban Consumers,published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department
of Labor for U.S. City Average, All Items (1982-84=100), or any successor index thereto as
hereinafter provided. If publication of the Index is discontinued, or if the basis of calculating the
Index is materially changed, then Lessor and Lessee shall substitute for the Index comparable
statistics as computed by an agency of the United States Government or, if none, by a substantial
and responsible periodical or publication of recognized authority most closely approximating the
result which would have been achieved by the Index.
Section 9. Lessor's Right to Perform Lessee's Covenants
9.1 If Lessee at any time fails to pay any Tax in accordance with the provisions of this
Lease or fails to make any other payment (other than Rent) or perform any other material act on
its part to be made or performed (in each instance, to the extent applicable, within the applicable
notice and cure periods provided in this Lease), then Lessor may(but shall be under no obligation
to):
9.1.1 Obtain the same on Lessee's behalf, and without waiving or releasing
Lessee from any obligation of Lessee contained in this Lease or from any default by Lessee and
without waiving Lessor's right to take such action as may be permissible under this Lease as a
result of such default, and after Lessee's failure to obtain any required liability insurance or
evidence thereof, procure such insurance and Lessee shall pay to Lessor the actual costs and
expenses thereof as applicable to that period of time between the expiration of such notice and the
date upon which Lessee provides such certificate or evidence of liability insurance to Lessee as
required hereinabove, and any actual costs incurred by Lessor in obtaining or terminating its
procured insurance; and/or
9.1.2 After ten (10) days prior written notice to Lessee which specifies what
action is required, perform the same on Lessee's behalf, make any other payment or perform any
other act on Lessee's part to be made or performed as provided in this Lease.
9.2 All sums so paid by Lessor and all actual costs and expenses incurred by Lessor, in
connection with the performance of any such act, shall constitute Additional Rent payable by
Lessee under this Lease and shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor on demand.
Section 10. Compliance with Legal Requirements
10.1 Throughout the Lease Term Lessee shall promptly comply with all Legal
Requirements (as defined in Section 4.2). To the extent that there is any change in Legal
Requirements such that the Permitted Use is no longer a lawful use of the Premises, Lessee may
terminate this Lease upon delivery of written notice to Lessor. Lessee shall pay all costs of
compliance with Legal Requirements.
10.2 Lessee shall have the right, after prior written notice to Lessor, to contest by
appropriate legal proceedings, diligently conducted in good faith, in the name of Lessee or Lessor
or both, without cost or expense to Lessor, the validity or application of any Legal Requirement
subject to the following:
10.2.1 If, by the terms of any Legal Requirement, compliance may legally be
delayed pending the prosecution of any such proceeding without the incurrence of any lien,charge,
or liability of any kind against all or any part of the Premises and without subjecting Lessor to any
liability, civil or criminal, for failure to comply, Lessee may delay compliance until the final
determination of such proceeding; or
10.2.2 If any lien, charge,or civil liability would be incurred by reason of any such
delay, Lessee nevertheless may contest the matter and delay compliance,provided that such delay
would not subject Lessor to criminal or civil liability or fine, and Lessee prosecutes the contest
with due diligence.
10.3 Lessor shall execute and deliver any appropriate papers, as determined in the
Lessor's sole discretion,that may be necessary,proper or desirable to permit Lessee to contest the
validity or application of any Legal Requirement, provided all the requirements of this section
have been satisfied by Lessee.
10.4 Each party shall promptly provide the other party, in the manner provided in
Section 31 below, copies of all material correspondence or other documents sent to or received
from governmental agencies or other persons: (i)relating to Lessee's development of the Premises;
and/or(ii) that may materially adversely affect the fair market value of the Premises.
10.5 Lessor represents and warrants to Lessee, that as of the Commencement Date and
as of the Premises Turnover Date:
10.5.1 Lessor shall not during the Lease Term initiate any action that would create
any encumbrances except for taxes, assessments and fees imposed pursuant to California
Constitution Articles XII C and D (or other applicable laws), that would adversely affect Lessee's
use, operation or occupancy of the Premises.
10.5.2 All persons and entities supplying labor, materials, and equipment to the
Premises have been paid, there are no claims of liens and there are no service contracts applicable
to the Premises.
10.5.3 To the best of Lessor's knowledge there is no action in the nature of
litigation, claim, investigation or other proceeding pending or to Lessor's best knowledge,
threatened against or affecting the Premises, the use thereof, or Lessor, or if there is, then Lessor
shall promptly disclose such matter to Lessee.
10.5.4 Lessor has not committed nor obligated itself in any manner whatsoever to
sell or lease the Premises to any person other than Lessee. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, no right of first refusal regarding the Premises exists. Lessor will not, prior to the
Premises Turnover Date, offer to or enter into any backup or contingent option or other agreement
to sell or lease the Premises to any other person.
10.5.5 There is an existing agreement with a company to operate and manage the
Property (the "Management Agreement"), but the Lessor shall by the expiration of the Due
Diligence Period provide Lessee with reasonable evidence that as of the Commencement Date and
as of the Premises Turnover Date, such Management Agreement shall have been terminated with
respect to the Leased Premises, and that there are no leases, tenancies, rental agreements or
entitlements or use agreements, or unrecorded restrictive covenants affecting all or any portion of
the Premises except for the Permitted Exceptions.
10.5.6 Lessor is not a foreign person, nonresident alien, foreign corporation,
foreign partnership, foreign trust, or foreign estate, as those terms are defined in the Internal
Revenue Code and the Income Tax Regulations promulgated thereunder.
10.5.7 Lessor has made no untrue statements or representations in connection with
this Lease.
10.5.8 Lessor has to the best of its knowledge provided or made available to Lessee
all information in Lessor's possession that Lessee has requested, and Lessor to the best of its
knowledge has provided or made available to Lessee any public information or knowledge actually
obtained by Lessor of any change contemplated in any applicable laws, ordinances or restrictions,
or any judicial or administrative action, or any action by adjacent landowners, or natural or
artificial condition, financial or otherwise, which would prevent, limit or impede the use of the
Premises as contemplated by this Lease.
10.5.9 All documents delivered or made available to Lessee by or on behalf of
Lessor are to the best or Lessor's knowledge true and correct copies of the documents in Lessor's
possession.
10.5.10 Prior to the Premises Turnover Date, and except as otherwise provided in
this Lease, Lessor has: (i) performed all of its obligations under any lien indebtedness, and (ii)
except as expressly permitted by this Lease, not allowed any lien to attach to the Premises or any
portion thereof which is not discharged at the Premises Turnover Date, nor granted, created,
modified or permitted the creation of, any easement, right-of-way, encumbrance, restriction or
covenant affecting the Premises or any part thereof.
10.5.11 To Lessor's actual knowledge, except as may be contained in the written
materials delivered or made available to Lessee during the Due Diligence Period, Lessor is not
aware of the existence of Hazardous Substances (as defined in Section 42), at the Property. For
purposes of this Section 10.5.11, the phrase "actual knowledge" shall mean the present, actual
knowledge of the City Manager ("Lessor's Designated Representative") with no duty of
investigation, inquiry or inspection. In no event shall Lessee be entitled to assert any cause of
action against Lessor's Designated Representative, nor shall such individual have any personal
liability whatsoever for any matter under or related to this Lease. Lessor represents and warrants
that Lessor's Designated Representative is the City Manager and the person on behalf of Lessor
most knowledgeable about the matters which are the subject of this Section.
Section 11. Operation, Repairs and Maintenance

Premises and any Premises Improvements Lessee constructs on the Premises,and off the Premises
but in conjunction with the development of the Premises and that Lessee is required by Legal
Requirements to maintain, as necessary to keep them in first-class order, condition, and repair
throughout the entire Lease Term after the Premises Turnover Date, at no cost to Lessor,provided
that during the periods that Topgolf is operating the Premises, this condition shall be satisfied by
keeping the Premises in a condition substantially comparable to other facilities currently being
operated by Topgolf. Lessor and Lessee agree that wherever in this Lease an obligation is imposed
on Lessee, Lessee,without being released from any of its obligations under this Lease or requiring
that the City pursue any party other than Lessee for performance of such obligations, shall have
the right to delegate responsibility for performing such obligations and will delegate such
responsibility for performing such obligations to Topgolf or to any other occupant of the entire
Premises approved by Lessor under Section 18 of this Lease (an"Operator") and performance of
such obligation by Topgolf or the Operator in accordance with the terms of this Lease shall be
deemed performance by Lessee.

level(or other suitable portion)of the Premises Improvements as a driving range open for business
seven days a week from at least 6:00 a.m. until at least 9:00 p.m., other than on any Specified
Holidays and (ii) the remainder of the Premises Improvements, such that the same are open for
business seven days a week from at least 9:00 a.m. until at least 9:00 p.m., other than on any
Specified Holidays ("Continuous Operation Requirement). The only exception to these

conducting alterations,routine repairs,maintenance and upgrades to the facilities and in such cases
Lessee shall work diligently to minimize the number of hours and/or days that the driving range
and/or restaurant are not open during the Continuous Operation Requirement. For purposes hereof,
"Specified Holidays" means collectively, the following holidays: New Year's Day, President's
Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained or implied in this Lease, in the event that at
any time after the expiration of the Operating Period the Lessee provides written notice that the
Premises will not be operated by Topgolf or another Operator for the Permitted Use (a "Non-
Operation Notice"), then Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default so long as (i) it is paying
Rent and any other sums owing the Lessor hereunder in a timely manner, and (ii) Lessee either
terminates this Lease as provided below or reopens the Premises for business to the public, in
either event within two (2) years after any Non-Operation Notice (provided that any replacement
Operator of the driving range is approved by Lessor pursuant to Section 18 hereof). Following
receipt of the Non-Operation Notice, Lessor may notify Lessee that Lessor has elected to operate
the driving range or cause the driving range to be operated on an interim basis during the period
that the Premises is not open for business to the public, then Lessor shall then operate the driving
range or cause the driving range to be operated during the time period set forth in Lessor's notice
in accordance with the standards of operation set forth in this Lease until such time as Lessee finds
a new Operator for the Premises. In the event that Lessor elects to operate the driving range as set
forth above, Lessor shall operate the driving range pursuant to a month to month sublease in form
and content reasonably acceptable to Lessor, Lessee and Topgolf, which shall provide, among
other things, for(i)the reduction of the Fixed Rent in an amount equal to the monthly net revenues
that Lessor derives from its operation of the Premises (i.e. the aggregate gross revenues received
by Lessor in connection with the operation of the driving range minus all reasonable third party
out of pocket costs incurred by Lessor in connection with the operation of the driving range, as
evidenced by monthly income and expense reports and other reasonable back-up information
reasonably requested by Lessee and/or Topgolf delivered to Lessee and Topgolf by Lessor along
with the monthly rental payments), and (ii) the right of termination by Lessee or Lessor of the
sublease upon thirty business days' prior written notice upon Lessee identifying an Operator that
will sublease the Premises and operate the same for the Permitted Use. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, in no event during Lessor's operation of the Premises shall Lessor utilize
any proprietary equipment and/or other proprietary elements of Topgolf s business, including,
without limitation, computer hardware and software and other intellection property, located upon
or about the Premises.
Following the expiration of the Operating Period, including during the two year period following
delivery of the Non-Operation Notice, the Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon

maintained in a similar first class condition; (b)provide discounted monthly user access cards for
frequent customers similar to those provided at other Topgolf facilities; (c) promote youth and
junior golf programs, including but not limited to allowing the "Good Swings Happen" program

currently charged to youth groups utilizing the driving range which rates may be adjusted on an
annual basis using the Los Angeles Area Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers; (d)
employ or contract with golf professionals (at salaries or rates commensurate with amounts paid
to golf professionals in Los Angeles County), including using a good faith effort to employ or
contract with those golf professionals currently providing lessons and services on the Property,
subject to the parties reaching mutually acceptable employment terms and Topgolfs receipt of
required employment and wage documentation from each prospective hire (Topgolf agrees to use
good faith efforts to consider employment terms commensurate with employment terms offered to
similarly suited professionals in Los Angeles County), to continue to provide lessons and services
in a similar manner as they are currently provided on the Property; including using a good faith
effort to employ or contract with two golf professionals that are currently providing services on
the Property during the time period between the Initial Term and Premises Turnover Date; (e) if

include a putting practice element on the Premises to replace the existing putting practice element
on the Property; (f) allow junior high school and high school players attending schools located in

are maintained in a first class condition when they are practicing at other times (provided that
such times are prior to 7:00 p.m. local time); and, (g) use commercially reasonable efforts to
introduce the game of golf to a wider audience and work with PGA of America, PGA of Southern
California, and the SCGA in this regard.

judgment, to permit the restoration of any Premises Improvements following such taking or
condemnation or for Lessee's use of the Premises,then this Lease and the Lease Term, at Lessee's

calculated as of the date of the Total Taking, as follows: (i) Lessor's Proportionate Share shall
equal the percentage obtained by dividing the Land Value by the Aggregate Sum,and(ii) Lessee's
Proportionate Share shall equal the percentage obtained by dividing the Amortized Improvements
Cost by the Aggregate Sum. In the event that the Golf Course is condemned then as between
Lessor and Lessee (and the CenterCal Guarantor and the Topgolf Guarantors) any condemnation
award with respect to the Golf Course or Golf Course Improvements shall be exclusively awarded

more appraisers or other valuation consultants to perform appraisals or other analyses of the Land
Value and assist with the determination of the Land Value hereunder. Following the agreement of
Lessor and Lessee with regard to the Land Value, such Land Value shall remain fixed and shall
not be subject to adjustment hereunder.
17.2.1.2 The term"Amortized Improvements Cost" shall mean at a
given point in time the then unamortized cost of the Premises Improvements (i.e. the aggregate

Lessee and Lessor in Proportionate Shares (as calculated as of the date of the Partial Taking).
17.3.2 Following any such taking or condemnation, Rent shall be equitably abated
based on the portion of the Premises taken.
17.4 In the event of a taking of all or a part of the Premises or any Premises
Improvements for temporary use,this Lease shall continue without change, as between Lessor and

shall be entitled to file and prosecute any claim against the condemnor for damages and to recover
the same, for any negligent use, waste, or injury to the Premises or any Premises Improvements
throughout the balance of the then-current Lease Term. The amount of damages so recovered shall
belong to Lessee.
17.5 In the event of any dispute between Lessee and Lessor regarding any issue of fact
arising out of a Taking mentioned in this Section 17, such dispute shall be resolved by the same
court in which the condemnation action is brought, in such proceedings as may be appropriate for
adjudicating the dispute.
Section 18. Assignment and Sublease

respect to such subtenant's or occupant's use and occupancy of the premises in question and shall
not work to alter any term or condition of this Lease;
18.1.4 Except as provided hereinbelow, no such subleasing or assignment shall
relieve Lessee from liability for payment of Rent herein provided or from the obligations to
observe and be bound by the terms, conditions, and covenants of this Lease. No transfer of
corporate shares of Lessee, if Lessee is a corporation, unless such transfer of shares will result in
a change in the present voting control of the Lessee by the person or persons owning a majority of
said corporate shares on the date of this Lease, shall constitute an assignment and be subject to the
conditions of this Section 18.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after completion of the Golf
Course Improvements and the Premises Improvements and payment of all Rent owing as of the
effective date of the assignment, Lessee shall be released from any and all further liabilities under
this Lease from and after the effective date of an assignment of this Lease to either: (i) an assignee
entity,that is not a so called"special purpose entity,"which has a net current worth and net tangible
assets at the time of the assignment, determined according to generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied, of not less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00) in Constant
Dollars as defined in Section 8, or(ii) an approved assignee entity(as provided above),that is a so
called "special purpose entity," which is able to demonstrate to Lessor's reasonable satisfaction
the prospective financial ability and fiscal resources (which may include, but shall not be limited
to, the cash flow from the business operations conducted or to be conducted on the Premises) to
fulfill the monetary obligations of Lessee under this Lease; so long as the assignee also has
significant experience in operating a commercial driving range and restaurant. Lessee's release
from liability pursuant to subsection (ii) of this Section 18.2.4 (i) shall be effective only if Lessee
provides Lessor within thirty(30)days of request therefor a copy of the assignment and reasonable
evidence of the assignee's qualifications hereunder (and Lessor shall have sixty (60) days
thereafter to review such evidence and render a reasonable determination in writing to the Lessee);
and
18.1.5 Provided that Lessee, within sixty (60) days following final execution of
any sublease or other occupancy agreement for the Premises,provides Lessor with a copy of such
sublease or occupancy agreement certified by Lessee to be a true and correct copy thereof, and
further provided that Lessee does not thereafter amend such sublease or occupancy agreement
without providing to Lessor a similar certification within sixty(60) days following final execution
thereof along with a copy of the sublease or occupancy agreement as amended as well as such
other and further documentation that is reasonable and necessary to adequately review the financial
strength and experience of,the proposed sublessee, Lessor shall have sixty (60) days to provide
written notice to Lessor of its approval or rejection of such sublease or other occupancy agreement.
If Lessor approves of such subtenant or other occupancy agreement, within sixty (60) days
following Lessee's written request therefor, Lessor shall execute such other documents or
instruments as may be reasonably requested by any subtenant or occupant of the Premises
affirming and evidencing Lessor's recognition of the sublease or occupancy agreement in question
as provided hereinabove so long as: (i)the term of the sublease, inclusive of renewal options, shall
not exceed the Lease Term, (ii)the subtenant's permitted use is not in violation of Section 4 hereof,
and(iii)the subtenant certifies that the sublease is subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease
with respect to such subtenant's or occupant's use and occupancy of the premises in question.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sublease of the Premises to Topgolf El Segundo shall
prohibit the assignment of the Sublease by Topgolf El Segundo until the expiration of the
Operating Period, except in connection with a"Permitted Topgolf Transfer" (as such term is
hereinafter defined). Topgolf El Segundo shall have the right at any time to assign the Sublease
without the consent of Lessor or Lessee to: (a) any business entity which may, as the result of a
reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets succeed to substantially all of the business
carried on by TGI, (b) any affiliate of TGI ("Affiliate"means any entity directly or indirectly,
through one or more intermediaries, controlling, controlled by, or under common control with
TGI. The term"control" means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or
cause the direction of the management and policies of TGI, whether through the ownership of
voting securities,by contract or otherwise), (c) any entity which may, as a result of a
reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets, succeed to substantially all of the Topgolf
business now carried on by TGI, and (d) any entity which acquires 50% or more of the issued
and outstanding voting stock or ownership interests (or such lesser percentage as shall be
sufficient to acquire voting control) of Topgolf El Segundo or of the corporation or other entity
which controls Topgolf El Segundo. Each of the above (a) through (d)referred to herein is a
"Permitted Tonsolf Transfer."
Lessor hereby approves the sublease of the Premises to Topgolf El Segundo so long as such
Sublease does not alter the terms or conditions of this Lease. Lessor also agrees that in the event
that Lessor terminates this Lease as a result of any Event of Default by Lessee, it shall deliver
written notice to Topgolf Guarantors and Topgolf of such termination and shall provide Topgolf
with thirty (30) days in which to determine whether to enter into a lease of the Premises on the
identical rental and other terms and conditions as this Lease (and Lessor shall afford Topgolf the
opportunity to enter into such lease during such thirty (30) day period) which shall take effect
immediately upon termination of this Lease;provided that(i) in connection with its execution and
delivery of such lease, Topgolf Guarantor or Topgolf pays Lessor any unpaid Rent owing by
Lessee to Lessor under this Lease (as determined without regard to any acceleration of or addition
to any such Rents pursuant to Section 20.2.4 hereof) and cures any existing defaults that are
capable of being cured by a person or entity other than the Lessee or CenterCal Guarantor, and(ii)
in the event that Lessee disputes any such termination of this Lease, and Lessor and/or Lessee
bring legal action to determine its rights hereunder, Topgolf(and Operator) shall have the right
to continue to occupy the Premises during the pendency of such legal action (provided they
continue to pay Rent and other sums to Lessor as they become due hereunder, as determined
without regard to any acceleration or addition to Rents pursuant to Section 20.2.4 hereof) and
Lessor shall provide Topgolf Guarantors or Topgolf, as applicable, the right to enter into the new
lease as described above during the thirty (30) day period after a court of competent jurisdiction
determines that this Lease has terminated or Lessee agrees or otherwise concedes that this Lease
has terminated.
18.2 If this Lease is assigned to any person or entity pursuant to the provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code, 11 USC § 101, et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code"), any and all monies or other
consideration payable or otherwise to be delivered to Lessor shall(subject to the Bankruptcy Code)
be and remain the exclusive property of Lessor and shall not constitute property of Lessee within
the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code. Any and all monies or other considerations constituting
Lessor's property under the preceding sentence not paid or delivered to Lessor shall be held in
trust for the benefit of Lessor and be promptly paid or delivered to Lessor. Any person or entity to
which this Lease is assigned pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code shall be deemed
without further act or deed to assume all of the obligations arising under this Lease. Any such
assignee shall upon demand execute and deliver to Lessor an instrument confirming such
assumption.
18.3 The exercise of any right or other action under this Section 18 shall not diminish or
alter the obligations of Topgolf Guarantors or CenterCal Guarantor under their respective
guaranties.

this Lease and such default continues and is not remedied within thirty(30) days after Lessee has
given Lessor written notice of the same (or,in the case of a default that can be cured but not within
such period of thirty(30) days, if Lessor has not: (i) commenced curing such default within such
thirty(30) day period, (ii) notified Lessee within such thirty(30) day period of Lessor's intention
to cure the default, and(iii) continuously and diligently completed the cure of the default), except
as otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease Lessee shall be entitled to pursue any right or remedy
available to Lessee under this Lease,at law or in equity,including,without limitation: (a)the right
to specific performance, and (b) the right to cure such default and deduct the cost of curing such
default from the Rent payable under this Lease.
19.2 No failure by Lessee to insist on the strict performance of any agreement, term,
covenant, or condition of this Lease or to exercise any right or remedy consequent on a breach,
and no payment of Rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of
any such breach or of such agreement, term, covenant, or condition. No agreement, term,
covenant,or condition to be performed or complied with by Lessor, and no breach by Lessor, shall
be waived, altered, or modified, except by a written instrument executed by Lessee. No waiver of
any breach shall affect or alter this Lease, but each and every agreement, term, covenant, and
condition of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then-existing
or subsequent breach.
19.3 Each right and remedy provided for in this Lease in favor of Lessee shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Lease or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or
beginning of the exercise by Lessee of any one or more of the rights or remedies provided for in
this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, shall not
preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the party in question of any or all other rights or
remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise.
Section 20. Lessee Default; Remedies
20.1 The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute a breach of this
Lease by Lessee and an"Event of Default":
20.1.1 If Lessee defaults in the payment of Rent or any other payment due and
payable by Lessee or the provision of insurance, and such default continues for ten(10) days after
Lessor has given Lessee a written notice specifying the same; or
20.1.2 If Lessee,whether by action or inaction,is in default of any of its obligations
under this Lease (other than a default in the payment of Rent or the provision of insurance by
Lessee) and such default continues and is not remedied within thirty (30) days after Lessor has
given Lessee a written notice specifying the same, or, in the case of a default that can be cured but
not within a period of thirty(30)days,if Lessee has not: (i)commenced curing such default within
such thirty (30) day period, (ii) notified Lessor of Lessee's intention to cure the default, and
(iii) continuously and diligently completed the cure of the default, not to exceed five (5) months
with respect to a failure to comply with the Continuous Operation Requirement. For purposes of
this provision, except for the Continuous Operation Requirement, the filing of and diligent
prosecution of successful litigation by Lessee against any sublessee to effect such cure (including
any such litigation to gain possession of the Premises from Topgolf or its successor) shall
constitute commencement of and continuous and diligent completion of cure of default so long as
Rent is paid when due hereunder.
20.2 On the occurrence of an Event of Default and subject to Lessor's obligations as
provided under this Lease and under California law to mitigate Lessor's damages, Lessor shall be
entitled to pursue any right or remedy available to Lessor under this Lease, at law or in equity,
including, without limitation: (a)the right to specific performance, and(b) any one or more of the
remedies set forth in this section or any other remedy specifically set forth in this Lease.
20.2.1 Subject to Section 20.2.3, Lessor or Lessor's agents and employees may
immediately, or at any time thereafter, reenter the Premises either by summary eviction
proceedings or by any available action or proceeding at law or equity, without being liable to
indictment,prosecution, or damages(except for any damages caused by their negligence or willful
misconduct), and may repossess the same, and may remove any person from the Premises, to the
end that Lessor may have, hold, and enjoy the Premises.
20.2.2 Lessor may relet the whole or any part of the Premises from time to time,
either in the name of Lessor or otherwise,to such lessees, for such terms ending before, on,or after
the termination of the Lease
20.2.3 Whether or not Lessor retakes possession or relets the Premises, Lessor has
the right to recover its damages, including, without limitation, all lost rentals, all reasonable costs
incurred by Lessor in restoring the Premises or otherwise preparing the Premises for reletting, and
all reasonable costs incurred by Lessor in reletting the Premises.
20.2.4 To the extent permitted under California law: (i) Lessor may sue
periodically for damages as they accrue without barring a later action for further damages; and(ii)
Lessor may, in one action, recover accrued damages plus damages attributable to the remaining
Lease Term equal to the difference between the Rent reserved in this Lease for the balance of the
Lease Term after the time of award, and the fair rental value of the Premises for the same period,
discounted at the time of award at a reasonable rate not to exceed twelve percent(12%)per annum.
To avoid a multiplicity of actions, Lessor may obtain a decree of specific performance requiring
Lessee to pay the damages stated in Sections 20.2.3 and 20.2.4 as they accrue.
20.2.5 Termination of this Lease shall not constitute a waiver of Lessor's other
remedies nor an election of remedies.
20.3 No failure by Lessor to insist on the strict performance of any agreement, term,
covenant, or condition of this Lease or to exercise any right or remedy consequent on a breach,
and no acceptance of full or partial Rent during the continuance of any such breach,shall constitute
a waiver of any such breach or of such agreement, term, covenant, or condition. No agreement,
term,covenant,or condition to be performed or complied with by Lessee,and no breach by Lessee,
shall be waived, altered, or modified, except by a written instrument executed by Lessor. No
waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Lease,but each and every agreement,term, covenant,
and condition of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then-
existing or subsequent breach.
20.4 Each right and remedy provided for in this Lease in favor of Lessor shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this Lease or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or
beginning of the exercise by Lessor of any one or more of the rights or remedies provided for in
this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, shall not
preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the party in question of any or all other rights or
remedies provided for in this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise.
Section 21. No Abatement of Rent; Encroachments
21.1 Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease, no abatement, refund,
diminution, or reduction of Rent or other compensation shall be claimed by or allowed to Lessee,
or any person claiming under it.
21.2 Unless directly or indirectly caused by or on behalf of Lessor, if any adjoining
building or structure encroaches on the Premises,no claim, demand, or objection of any kind shall
be made by Lessee against Lessor by reason of such encroachments and no claim for abatement of
Rent due under this Lease shall be made by reason of such encroachments or acts of, or in
connection with, removal of the encroachments. The rights, liabilities, and obligations of the
parties shall be the same as if there were no encroachments. In any related legal proceedings, the
Premises may properly and without prejudice be described according to the description previously
used without reference to any such encroachments. Lessor agrees to fully cooperate at Lessee's
expense with Lessee in any proceedings sought by Lessee to remove such encroachments.
Section 22. Leasehold Mortgages
22.1 Lessee shall have the right, in addition to any other rights granted and without any
requirement to obtain Lessor's consent,to mortgage or grant a security interest in Lessee's interest
in this Lease and the Premises and the Premises Improvements and any subleases, under one or
more leasehold mortgages or pursuant to a sale-leaseback financing arrangement to one or more
"Lending Institutions" (as defined in Section 22.2), and/or under one or more purchase-money
leasehold mortgages, and to assign this Lease and any subleases as collateral security for such
leasehold mortgages or pursuant to the sale-leaseback financing arrangement,on the condition that
all rights acquired under such leasehold mortgages or pursuant to the sale-leaseback financing
arrangement shall be subject to each and all of the covenants, conditions, and restrictions set forth
in this Lease and to all rights and interests of Lessor, none of which covenants, conditions,
restrictions, rights, or interests is or shall be waived by Lessor by reason of the right given to
mortgage or grant a security interest in Lessee's interest in this Lease and the Premises and the
Premises Improvements, except as expressly provided otherwise in this Lease.
22.2 Any mortgage or sale-leaseback financing arrangement made pursuant to this
section is referred to as a "Permitted Leasehold Mortgage," and the holder of or secured party
under a Permitted Leasehold Mortgage is referred to as a"Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee." The
Permitted Leasehold Mortgage that is prior in lien or interest among those in effect is referred to
as the "First Leasehold Mortgage," and the holder of or secured party under the First Leasehold
Mortgage is referred to as the "First Leasehold Mortgagee." For the purposes of any rights
created under this section, any so-called wraparound lender shall be considered a First Leasehold
Mortgagee. If a First Leasehold Mortgage and a Permitted Leasehold Mortgage that is second in
priority in lien or interest among those in effect are both held by the same Permitted Leasehold
Mortgagee, the two Permitted Leasehold Mortgages are collectively referred to as the "First
Leasehold Mortgage." A Permitted Leasehold Mortgage includes, without limitation, mortgages
and trust deeds as well as financing statements, security agreements, sale-leaseback
instrumentation, and other documentation that the lender may require. The words "Lending
Institution," as used in this Lease, mean any commercial, national, or savings bank, savings and
loan association, trust company, pension trust, foundation, or insurance company, and any other
entity,person, corporation or partnership making a loan on the security of Lessee's interest in this
Lease or all or any part of the Premises Improvements.
22.3 If a Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee sends to Lessor written notice specifying the
name and address of the Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee,then provided this Lease is still in effect
and as long as such Permitted Leasehold Mortgage remains unsatisfied of record or until written
notice of satisfaction is given by the holder to Lessor, the following provisions shall apply (in
respect of such Permitted Leasehold Mortgage and of any other Permitted Leasehold Mortgages):
22.3.1 There shall be no amendment, or modification, except those explicitly
contemplated by this Lease, of this Lease without in each case the prior consent in writing of the
Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee and the Subtenant under the Sublease described in Section 5.4(iv).
Nor shall any merger result from the acquisition by, or devolution on, any one entity of the fee and
the leasehold estates in the Premises.
22.3.2 Lessor shall, upon delivering Lessee any notice, whether of default or any
other matter, simultaneously deliver a copy of such notice to the Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee,
and no such notice to Lessee shall be deemed delivered unless a copy is so delivered to the
Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee in the manner provided in this Lease for giving notices.
22.3.3 In the event of any default by Lessee under this Lease, each Permitted
Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the same concurrent period as Lessee has to remedy or cause to
be remedied or commence to remedy and complete the remedy of the default complained of for
such default, and Lessor shall accept such performance by or at the instigation of such Permitted
Leasehold Mortgagee as if the same had been done by Lessee. Each notice of monetary default
given by Lessor will state the amounts of whatever Rent or other payments are then claimed to be
in default. Nothing herein shall require any Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee to cure any Event of
Default. No such cure shall constitute an assumption of any liability by such Permitted Leasehold
Mortgagee (unless the Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee assumes this Lease or enters into a new
lease with Lessor in their respective sole discretion) unless a liability arises directly from a
negligent or wrongful act of the Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee and in such a case the Permitted
Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the obligation to defend and indemnify the Lessor consistent with
the Lessee's obligation to defend and indemnify Lessor, nor prejudice the right of such Permitted
Leasehold Mortgagee and/or Lessee to later contest or continue to contest the validity of the claim
of the Event of Default.
22.3.4 Lessor agrees that the name of the Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee may be
added to the "Loss Payable Endorsement" of any and all insurance policies required to be carried
by Lessee.
22.3.5 Except as otherwise explicitly provided in this Lease, no liability for the
payment of Rent or the performance of any of Lessee's covenants and agreements shall attach to
or be imposed on the Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee (other than any obligations expressly
assumed by the Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee), all such liability (other than any obligations
expressly assumed by the Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee)being expressly waived by Lessor.
22.3.6 Lessor, within thirty (30) days after a request in writing by Lessee or
any Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee, shall furnish a written statement, duly acknowledged, that
this Lease is in full force and effect and unamended,or if there are any amendments,such statement
will specify the amendments, and that there are no defaults by Lessee that are known to Lessor, or
if there are any known defaults, such statement shall specify the defaults Lessor claims exist.
22.3.7 Intentionally Omitted
22.3.8 Attornment
Lessor, on request, shall execute, acknowledge, and deliver to each Permitted Leasehold
Mortgagee an agreement prepared at the sole cost and expense of Lessee, in form satisfactory to
the Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee and Lessor, among Lessor, Lessee, and the Permitted
Leasehold Mortgagee, agreeing to all the provisions of this section. Lessor shall attorn.to any
Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee or any other person who becomes Lessee by, through, or under a
Permitted Leasehold Mortgage, to the extent such is consistent with Section 18.1.5 and as long as
(i) all Rent and other monetary payments due under this Lease have been made; and (ii) the
Permitted Leasehold Mortgage has sufficient net worth, subject to the reasonable approval of the
Lessor, to operate the driving range and restaurant on the Premises.
22.3.9 Lessor shall at no time be required to subordinate its interest in the
Premises to the lien of any leasehold mortgage, including any Permitted Leasehold Mortgage,nor
to mortgage its fee simple interest in the Premises as collateral or additional security for any
leasehold mortgage, including any Permitted Leasehold Mortgage.
22.3.10 If following completion of the Golf Course Improvements and the
Premises Improvements Lessee is declared bankrupt or insolvent and this Lease is thereafter
lawfully canceled or rejected, Lessor shall to the extent permitted by law promptly execute a new
lease with Topgolf El Segundo under the identical terms and conditions as this Lease,provided(i)
all Rent and other monetary payments due under this Lease have been made; (ii) all defaults that
are capable of being cured by a person or entity other than the Lessee or CenterCal Guarantor have
been cured, and (ii) the replacement lessee or a guarantor of its obligations hereunder has a net
worth of at least $10,000,000.00.
22.3.11 If Lessor declares bankruptcy and Lessor's bankruptcy trustee rejects
this Lease when there is a Permitted Leasehold Mortgagee, Lessee's right to elect to terminate this
Lease or to retain its rights pursuant to 11 USC § 365(h)(1) shall be exercised by the Permitted
Leasehold Mortgagee.
22.3.12 No filing of bankruptcy by Lessee,a sublessee,assignee,or Permitted
Leasehold Mortgagee or any other party, other than Lessor, under, subject to or otherwise having
rights or obligations under or through this Lease, shall relieve the CenterCal Guarantor or the
Topgolf Guarantors of their respective obligations.
Section 23. Lessor's Right to Encumber
Lessor, during the Lease Term, may encumber or mortgage its fee simple interest in the
Premises so long as Lessee has reasonably consented, which consent shall be promptly granted if
each of the following conditions have been satisfied: (i) Lessee has received thirty(30) days prior
written notice of any such encumbrance, (ii) the holder of any such encumbrance executes with
Lessee a mutually agreeable nondisturbance and attornment agreement, and (iii) at no time shall
the aggregate amount of all such encumbrances of Lessor's fee simple interest in the Premises
exceed a seventy percent (70%) loan to value ratio (using the land value only without Premises
Improvements). Except as explicitly provided above, Lessor covenants and agrees that Lessor
shall not permit any liens to attach to the Premises that are created by, through or under Lessor. If
any such liens do attach to the Premises, Lessor shall immediately pay off such liens; provided
that if any such liens are not paid off by Lessor within thirty (30) days of the date that Lessor
receives written notice from Lessee that such liens are recorded against the Premises and a demand
that they be removed, Lessee may, at its option, pay off such liens and deduct the payment from
Fixed Rent.
Section 24. Nonmerger
There shall be no merger of this Lease, or of the leasehold estate created by this Lease,
with the fee estate in the Premises by reason of the fact that this Lease,the leasehold estate created
by this Lease, or any interest in this Lease or in any such leasehold estate, may be held, directly or
indirectly, by or for the account of any person who shall own the fee estate in the Premises or any
interest in such fee estate, and no such merger shall occur, unless and until all persons at the time
having an interest in the fee estate in the Premises and all persons having an interest in this Lease,
or in the leasehold estate created by this Lease, shall join in a written instrument effecting such
merger and shall duly record the same.
Section 25. Quiet Enjoyment
Lessee, on paying the Rent and observing and keeping all covenants, agreements, and
conditions of this Lease on its part to be kept, shall quietly have and enjoy the Premises during the
Lease Term without hindrance or molestation by anyone claiming by, through, or under Lessor as
such, subject, however, to the exceptions, reservations, and conditions of this Lease.
Section 26. Surrender
26.1 Except as otherwise provided, Lessee, on the last day of the Lease Term or upon
any earlier termination, shall surrender and deliver up the Premises and any Premises
Improvements to the possession and use of Lessor, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances
other than those, if any, existing on the Premises Turnover Date or created or consented to in
writing by Lessor that Lessor expressly agreed would remain following termination of this Lease,
without any payment or allowance whatsoever by Lessor on account of any Premises
Improvements on the Premises, and in a broom clean as-is condition and with the Premises in its
then condition being capable of being operated as a driving range generally consistent with the
operation of the driving range in existence as of the Premises Turnover Date(a"Driving Range").
Subject to the preceding and Lessee's other obligations under this Lease:
26.2 When furnished by or at the expense of Lessee, fixtures, and equipment may be
removed by Lessee at or before this Lease terminates. For purposes hereof, Lessee's fixtures and
equipment include the outfield target equipment, golf balls, any proprietary technology in the golf
ball dispensers and touch screens, and other proprietary or related technology equipment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,Lessee shall ensure that the Premises are capable of being operated
as a Driving Range on the last day of the Lease Term or upon any earlier termination and Rent
shall be due and payable until Driving Range is operational.
26.3 Any personal property of Lessee that shall remain on the Premises after the
termination of this Lease and the removal of Lessee from the Premises may,at the option of Lessor,
be deemed to have been abandoned by Lessee, and may either be retained by Lessor as its property
or be disposed of, without accountability, in such manner as Lessor may see fit, or if Lessor gives
written notice to Lessee to such effect, such personal property shall be removed by Lessee at
Lessee's sole cost and expense. If this Lease terminates early for any reason other than the default
of Lessee, then, anything to the contrary notwithstanding, Lessee shall have ninety (90) days
thereafter to remove its personal property and Lessee shall be responsible for paying all Rent and
other costs required hereunder until the Premises are delivered to the Lessor.
26.4 Lessor shall not be responsible for any loss or damage occurring to any property
owned by Lessee unless such loss or damage is caused by Lessor's negligence or willful
misconduct, or that of its agents, employees or contractors.
26.5 If, with the written consent of Lessor, Lessee fails to vacate the Premises after the
expiration of the Lease Term, or any earlier termination hereof, Lessee shall become a tenant from
month to month upon the terms of this Lease; provided, however, that Rent shall be adjusted
beginning on the first day after the expiration or earlier termination to be one hundred ten percent
(110%) of the Rent then in effect under this Lease.
26.6 Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Lessee shall be liable
to Lessor for any and all actual and direct damages caused by its failure to vacate the Premises
after the expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease hereof,but not including incidental and
consequential damages to Lessor. Lessee shall pay such damages within thirty (30) days of
demand. Lessee shall not be subject to the preceding liability to the extent that Lessor has elected
to allow Lessee to continue as a month-to-month tenant beyond the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease.
26.7 The provisions of this Section 26 shall survive any termination of this Lease.
Section 27. Invalidity of Particular Provisions
If any term or provision of this Lease or the application of the Lease to any person or
circumstances is, to any extent, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the
application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is
held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected,and each term and provision of this Lease shall
be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Section 28. No Representations
Lessee acknowledges that it has examined the Premises and that no representations as to
the condition of the Premises or as to any other matters have been made by Lessor or any agent or
person acting for Lessor except as expressly provided in this Lease.
Section 29. Estoppel Certificate
Either party, within twenty (20) days after a request from time to time made by the other
party and without charge, shall give a certification in writing to any person, firm, or corporation
reasonably specified by the requesting party stating: (i) that this Lease is then in full force and
effect and unmodified, or if modified, stating the modifications; (ii)that Lessee is not in default in
the payment of Rent to Lessor, or if in default, stating such default; (iii)that as far as the maker of
the certificate knows, neither party is in default in the performance or observance of any other
covenant or condition to be performed or observed under this Lease, or if either party is in default,
stating such default; (iv) that as far as the maker (if Lessor) of the certificate knows, no event has
occurred that authorized, or with the lapse of time will authorize, Lessee to terminate this Lease,
or if such event has occurred, stating such event; (v) that as far as the maker of the certificate
knows, neither party has any offsets, counterclaims, or defenses, or, if so, stating them; (vi) the
dates to which Rent have been paid; and(vii) any other matters that may be reasonably requested
by the requesting party. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective
purchaser or encumbrancer of the Premises or encumbrancer of the interest of Lessee hereunder.
A party's failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon such party:
(a)that this Lease is in full force and effect without modification, except as may be represented by
the party requesting the certificate, and (b) that there are no uncured defaults in such requesting
party's performance.
Section 30. Force Majeure
If the performance by either of the parties of their respective obligations under this Lease
(excluding Rent or other monetary obligations) is delayed, or prevented in whole or in part by any
acts of God, fire or other casualty, floods, storms or other natural disasters, explosions, accidents,
epidemics,war, civil disorders, labor strikes, shortage or failure of supply of materials, labor, fuel,
power, equipment, supplies or transportation, third party legal challenges, actions taken by
governmental agencies,that could not have been reasonably anticipated by and timely resolved by
a party("Force Majeure"), the party's obligation to perform shall be delayed for a time period
equivalent to the Force Majeure (excluding any monetary obligation). Notwithstanding the
foregoing,in no event shall an event of Force Majeure extend the Due Diligence Period(except in
the case of certain third party challenges to Required Project Entitlements as more particularly
described in Section 5.1).
Section 31. Notices
31.1 Any notice required or permitted by the terms of this Lease shall be in writing and

Notwithstanding anything in this section to the contrary, any notice sent or mailed to the last
designated address of any person or party to which a notice may be or is required to be delivered
pursuant to this Lease or this section, shall not be deemed ineffective if actual delivery cannot be
made due to a change of address of the person or party to which the notice is directed or if such
notice is rejected by such party.
Section 32. Venue
32.1 The venue for any claim, controversy, or dispute between the parties arising out of
or relating to this Lease,or to the interpretation or breach thereof,shall be the Los Angeles Superior
Court. The parties may, but are not required to, engage in mediation prior to the initiation of any
litigation.
Section 33. Entire Agreement
This Lease contains the entire agreement between the parties and, except as otherwise
provided, can be changed, modified, amended, or terminated only by an instrument in writing
executed by the parties. It is mutually acknowledged and agreed by Lessee and Lessor that there
are no verbal agreements,representations,warranties,or other understandings affecting this Lease.
This Agreement was negotiated by and jointly drafted by the parties and the language contained
herein shall not be construed against either party hereto based upon any presumption or evidence
that particular language was drafted by one of the parties hereto. All Exhibits referenced in the
Lease and attached hereto are incorporated into and are considered a part of this Lease.
Section 34. Applicable Law
This Lease shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state of
California.
Section 35. License Agreement
Lessor represents and warrants to Lessee that as of the date of this Lease, there are no
uncured defaults under the License Agreement and, to Lessor's knowledge, no events have
occurred, which with the giving of notice or the passage of time could become a default under the
License Agreement.
Lessor and Lessee agree not to take any action that would result in the termination of the
License Agreement or to modify the License Agreement without both parties written consent.
Lessor and Lessee agree to perform all of their respective obligations under the License Agreement
in a timely manner so as not to cause the termination of the License Agreement. If Lessor or
Lessee receives a notice of default from Licensor,then the party receiving the notice shall promptly
give notice of the default to other party, which notice shall include a copy of any such notice of
default that is so given or received. ,
In the event of a default by Lessor or Lessee under the License Agreement,both parties shall have
the right, but not the obligation, to cure the default of the other party by giving notice thereof to
the other party, and any reasonable costs incurred by non-defaulting party in curing such default
shall be borne by the defaulting party.
Section 36. Late Charge
Lessee acknowledges that late payment by Lessee to Lessor of any Rent or other payments
due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount
of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs may include, without limitation,
processing and accounting charges and late charges which may be imposed on Lessor.
Accordingly, if any Rent payment is not received by Lessor within ten (10) days after receipt by
Lessee of notice from Lessor that such Fixed Rent is past due, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late
charge equal to four percent (4%) of the unpaid Fixed Rent (the "Late Charge"). The parties
hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs incurred
by Lessor by reason of the late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of any Late Charge by Lessor
shall, in no event, constitute a waiver of Lessee's default with respect to the overdue amount in
question, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted
hereunder.
Section 37. Nonwaiver
No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Lessor or Lessee,
unless such waiver is in writing signed by Lessor or Lessee, as applicable. Waiver of a breach of
any term or condition of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.
Acceptance of any Rent or other payments shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach.
Section 38. Brokerage
Lessor and Lessee represent to each other that they have not employed any brokers in
negotiating and consummating the transaction set forth in this Lease, but have negotiated directly
with each other. Lessor represents and warrants to Lessee, and Lessee represents and warrants to
Lessor, that no other broker or finder has been engaged by it,respectively, in connection with this
Lease. In the event of any claims for additional brokers' or finders' fees or commissions in
connection with the negotiation, execution, or consummation of this Lease, then Lessee shall
indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Lessor from and against such claims if they shall be based

require an adjustment of the total number of parking spaces needed for the Golf Course or that
providing Lessor with thirty (30) exclusive parking spaces during the Golf Course's hours of
operation as described in clause (x) hereof is incompatible with the Permitted Use and Lessor's
use of the Golf Course, then prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, the parties shall work

spaces granted thereunder) in such a manner so as to be compatible with the Permitted Use and

ORIGINATED BY: Cheryl Ebert, Senior Civil Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Ken Berkman, Director of Public, Work
APPROVED BY: Greg Carpenter, City Manager.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
On May 17, 2016, City Council adopted plans and specifications for the removal and replacement
of the Police Department roof and Fire Station 1 roof and authorized staff to advertise for receipt
of construction bids. Two bids were received by the City Clerk's office on June 14, 2016; both
were rejected on June 21, 2016 due to the higher than anticipated costs. A summary of those bids
are as follows:
E3
130
Bidder Police Department Roof Fire, Tlcwnlent Roof
Best Contracting Services Inc. $570,275.00 $534,150.00
Chapman Coast Roof Co., Inc. $629,575.00 $388,882.00
Staff reached out to the bidding Contractors to better understand the basis for the high bids. Using
the information gleaned from the contractor's feedback, staff revised the specifications to eliminate
interior protection of the buildings and it was rebid. Since the structure that the existing roof
adheres to consists of light-weight concrete and metal pans, interior protection was not needed.
New bids were received by the City Clerk's office on July 19, 2016 as follows:
Bidder Pole; Department Roof Fire DeDariment Roof
Letner Roofing Co. $533,000.00 $273,000.00
Best Contracting Services Inc. $523,610.00 $385,125.00
Chapman Coast Roof Co., Inc. $543,636.00 $415,152.00
ADCO Roofing, Inc. $646,124.00 $331,828.00
Pueblo Construction, Inc. $747,075.00 $517,472.00
The lowest bid received in July for Fire Station 1 was significantly lower than the bid received in
June($115,882 less). However, all of the bids received for the Police Department were still higher
than the anticipated amount in the adopted budget. On September 6, 2016, City Council awarded
a standard Public Works contract to Letner Roofing Co. for$806,000,with contingency of$60,000
to complete the Fire Station I roof and issue a change order of$533,000 deduction to delete the
Police Roof from the scope. On April 24th, 2017, Letner Roofing Co. began work on the Fire
Station 1 roof project and to date has met or exceeded the specifications and expectations of staff.
The Police roof, however, is still in dire need of replacement. As evidenced during the past rainy
season, which was historically strong for our region, an increasing number of significant leaks are
intruding into the building, while the corrugated metal roof base material, with its longitude
channels, makes it nearly impossible to determine where leaks are entering. Additionally, recent
roof inspections show open joints along the parapet walls, blisters throughout the roof, and
compromised roof drains. These roofs have met and exceeded their 20-25 year life expectancies
and are in critical need of replacement prior to the next rainy season.
Recognizing that budget constraints have prevented the project from moving forward and the
opportunity presented itself to take advantage of the currently mobilized roofing contractor
working on the adjacent Fire Station, staff brought forward a request for $200,000 of additional
funding for the project within the May 16th Mid-Year Budget Review, which City Council
approved,providing a total amount available of$600,000.00. A consultant was retained to visually
investigate roof leaks,water damaged areas,and clarify the Police roof scope of work. After minor
scope of work adjustments and the Mid-Year Budget Review, staff believes the current budget will
adequately address the roof replacement and damage related to water intrusion inside the building.
Therefore, staff respectfully recommends City Council approve a change order for Letner Roofing
Company in the amount of$533,000.00 to complete the Police Station Roof Replacement Project,
and authorize an additional contingency of$67,000.00 for unforeseen conditions.
With Council approval, construction is expected to begin in July and be completed in August.

132
On May 16, 2017, the City Council introduced an Ordinance to approve Environmental
Assessment No. EA-1184 and Specific Plan Amendment No. SPA 17-01. The ordinance makes
certain amendments to the Downtown Specific Plan relating to residential uses and their parking
requirements.
The Council may waive second reading and adopt the Ordinance. If adopted, Ordinance No. 1549
will become effective in 30 days.

ORDINANCE NO. 1549
AN ORDINANCE ADOPTING ADDENDUM NO. 1 TO AN APPROVED
MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION (ENVIRONMENTAL
ASSESSMENT NO. 474) AND AMENDING THE DOWNTOWN
SPECIFIC PLAN REGARDING RESIDENTIAL USES
(SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 17-01)
The City Council of the city of El Segundo does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1: The Council finds and declares as follows:
A. On May 25, 2000 the Planning Commission adopted Resolution 2475,
recommending the City Council adopt the Downtown Specific Plan (DSP).
B. On June 20, 2000, staff presented the draft DSP to the City Council, which
included the recommendation that 2 residential dwelling units per 25-foot wile
lot be allowed, and that 2 on-site parking spaces be provided per unit. The
Council continued the item to the July 18, 2000 Council meeting, and directed
staff to study the feasibility of requiring that the residential unit above a
commercial space be occupied only by the owner of the business below.
C. On July 18, 2000, based on The City Attorney's office advise that such a
requirement would be unenforceable, the City Council directed staff to delete
the allowance for residential units within the DSP.
D. On August 1, 2000, the City Council approved Environmental Assessment
No. 474 and Resolution No. 2475, adopting the Mitigated Negative
Declaration for the Downtown Specific Plan. The approved Downtown
Specific Plan prohibited residential dwelling units in the downtown area.
E. On February 6, 2001, the City Council directed staff to amend the DSP to
allow the development of dwelling units on the second floor of buildings for
tenants/business owners of the first floor businesses only.
F. On April 12, 2001 the Planning Commission questioned the enforcement of
the restriction and discussed the benefits of residential use downtown (i.e.
eyes on the street, reduction of vehicle usage and the enhanced cash flow to
the business owner). As a result, the Commission recommended that the
Plan be amended to allow unrestricted residential use above the first floor
within the DSP area.
G. On May 1, 2001, the City Council considered the Planning Commission's
recommendation to permit residential units within the DSP with no
restrictions. However, after deliberation, the City Council voted to amend the
DSP in accordance with its original direction to staff, to allow development of
Page 1 of 16
134
upper-level dwelling units in the downtown, provided they are only occupied
by tenants/business owners of the first floor businesses. The amended DSP
also established a density of one unit per 3,500 square feet of lot area; and,
because the commercial tenant below would be the same person living
upstairs, residential parking was not required.
H. On December 12, 2016, Bill Ruane initiated the process to amend the
Downtown Specific Plan (DSP) development standards regarding upper-floor
residential units;
I. On April 27, 2017, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to receive
public testimony and other evidence regarding the application including
information provided by city staff; and, adopted Resolution No. 2814
recommending that the City Council approve the proposed amendments;
J. On May 16, 2017, the City Council held a public hearing and considered the
information provided by City staff and public testimony regarding this
Ordinance; and
K. This Ordinance and its findings are made based upon the entire
administrative record including testimony and evidence presented to the City
Council at the public hearing and the staff report submitted by the Planning
and Building Safety Department.
SECTION 2: Factual Findings and Conclusions. After considering the above facts, the
City Council finds as follows:
A. The properties affected by the proposed ordinance are located within the
boundaries of the Downtown Specific Plan (DSP) area. The DSP area
encompasses the properties located on the 100 through 500 blocks of Main
Street, the 100 through 200 blocks of Richmond Street, the west side of the
300 block of Richmond Street, a portion of the east side of the 300 block of
Richmond Street, the lots fronting the 100 and 200 blocks of West Grand
Avenue from Concord Street to Main Street, and a portion of the 100 block of
East Grand Avenue from Main Street to the alley west of Standard Street.
B. The General Plan Land Use designation for this area is DSP.
C. The DSP includes the following districts: Main Street District, Main Street
Transitional District, North Richmond Street District, Richmond Street District,
Grand Avenue District, West Grand Avenue Transitional District (north) and
West Grand Avenue Transitional District (south).
D. The land uses permitted in the DSP include a variety of commercial uses,
residential uses above the first floor, and recreational uses.
Page 2 of 16
135
E. Surrounding land uses in the area generally consist of multi-family residential
dwellings to the north, west and east; offices and industrial uses to the east,
and industrial uses to the south. The surrounding area is a fully developed
urban environment.
F. The proposed amendments would amend DSP Chapter I — Introduction,
Chapter VI — Development Standards and Chapter VII — Parking.
G. The proposed amendments will: 1) remove the requirement that upper-floor
residential occupants must be tenants or owners of the business below; 2)
amend related language accordingly; and 3) clarify language regarding limits
to height and residential density.
SECTION 3: General Plan and Specific Plan Findings. As required under Government
Code § 65454 the proposed amendment of the DSP is consistent with the City's
General Plan as follows:
A. The El Segundo General Plan land use designation is Downtown Specific
Plan (DSP). This designation permits community-serving retail and service
uses, and offices in a pedestrian-oriented environment.
B. The amendment is consistent with the "philosophy and concept" section of the
DSP (a vision-based list adopted by the Downtown Task Force as part of the
Specific Plan Concept Document which was adopted February 22, 2000). In
removing barriers to live within the DSP the proposed amendment can help
maintain and enhance the pedestrian-friendly environment. Further, more
street activity and an increased number of "eyes on the street" have the
potential to increase safety.
C. The proposed amendment is also consistent with the General Plan's
Economic Development Element Goal ED3, Objective ED3-1, Policy ED3-1.2,
Policy ED3-1.4, and Policy ED3-1.5 in that it prioritizes the area's economic
viability. Added residential units will stimulate pedestrian traffic and add
support for local businesses.
D. The proposed amendment to the Downtown Specific Plan is consistent with
several General Plan Land Use Element Goals, Objectives and Policies.
Specifically, it is consistent with Land Use Element Objective LU1-2 in that it
will help prevent deterioration and blight by increasing real estate potential.
Currently, the restriction of who can rent which units is a deterrent to
development. Under the proposed amendment, developers as well as existing
property owners will be better able to keep their units occupied. The
amendment is also consistent with Land Use Objective 1-4 which seeks to
"Preserve and maintain the City's Downtown and historic areas as integral to
the City's appearance and function." If upper-floor residential units may be
rented to those who are not connected with the business below, more people
will be able to live within the Downtown area. An increase in residential
Page 3 of 16
136
population will be beneficial to local businesses, helping the Downtown area
function as an active center. The proposed amendment does not change the
allowable density or building height. Nor does it allow any new uses. Upper-
floor residential is currently allowed. The proposed amendment simply
removes the requirement that upper-floor residential units can only be leased
by the commercial tenant below.
E. The proposed amendment is a direct response to Land Use Element
Objective LU4-4, which states that the City should "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." The downtown area
is the most obvious part of the City for such an environment. However, the
current DSP language severely limits such a potential by providing a barrier to
renting upper-floor residential units.
SECTION 4: Environmental Assessment; Adoption of Addendum No. 1 to Mitigated
Negative Declaration. The Downtown Specific Plan was evaluated by an adopted
Mitigated Negative Declaration (Environmental Assessment No. 474) ("MND") on
August 1, 2000. Addendum No. 1 to the MND, attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and
incorporated by this reference, determined that the proposed amendments to the
Downtown Specific Pan would not result in any new or different impacts that were not
identified in the prior MND. None of the conditions described in CEQA Guidelines
Section 15164 (14 CCR § 15164), which identifies when a subsequent MND is required,
has been met, and therefore the City prepared an Addendum to the previously
approved MND. The City Council, as responsible agency, has received and considered
the Addendum, and finds that the Addendum was prepared in accordance with CEQA
Guidelines Section 15164 and that none of the conditions warranting either
supplemental or subsequent review, under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 or 15163,
respectively, have been triggered. The City Council in its independent judgment has
reviewed and considered the MND and the Addendum. Based on these findings and all
of the evidence in the record, the City Council adopts Addendum No. 1 to the MND.

EXHIBIT "A"
ADDENDUM NO. 1 TO ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT/ MITIGATED NEGATIVE
DECLARATION ORIGINALLY ADOPTED UNDER EA 474, GPA 99-2, ZC 99-2 & ZTA
99-5
June 6, 2017
On August 1, 2000, the City Council approved Environmental Assessment No. 474 and
Resolution No. 2475, adopting the Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Downtown
Specific Plan. The MND was circulated for public comment from April 21 to May 11,
2000. The City Council found that there was no evidence that the project would have
the potential for an adverse effect on wildlife resources or the habitat on which the
wildlife depends, because the project is infill development in a built-out urban
environment.
Standard of Review
Under CEQA, an Addendum to an adopted 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 during
the preparation of the Downtown Specific Plan 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.
Proiect Revisions
The proposed amendment would make minor changes to the Specific Plan by removing
the restriction that residential units be owner-occupied. This does not change the
currently-allowed residential density within the Specific Plan. Further, no new
information shows that: there is one or more new or increased significant impacts; or,
that new or different mitigation measures are feasible to reduce the impacts.
Impact Comparison
The approved MND (adopted August 1St, 2000) identified potential impacts to geology
and soils due to the fact that all of Southern California is subject to the risk of seismic
shaking. It was determined to have a less-than-significant impact due to adherence with
building code requirements that ensure buildings are constructed to withstand seismic
activity. According to the Official Maps of Seismic Hazard Zones provided by the State
Page 15 of 16
148
of California Department of Conservation, the specific plan area is not located within an
earthquake-induced landslide zone or a liquefaction zone. Notwithstanding, numerous
controls would be imposed on development through the permitting process. Thus, since
the proposed amendment makes no change to allowed land uses or development
standards, 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.
The adopted MND also identified potential impacts to transportation/traffic. It was
determined to have a less-than-significant impact with mitigation. In 2000, the MND
identified the intersection of Imperial Highway and Main Street (which is outside the
boundaries of the Specific Plan area) to be operating at LOS E, but identified that
improvements to this intersection were planned. According to the traffic impact analysis
conducted in 2012 for the approved 540 Imperial residential development project, the
intersection now operates at LOS A. Thus, since the proposed amendments do not
make any changes to allowed uses, allowed density or to any other development
standards within the Plan, the amendments will not result in an increase in traffic
generation. Therefore, no new significant impacts or substantial increase in the severity
of impacts would occur in regards to transportation/traffic as a result of project revisions.
Conclusion
As such, the City Council has independently reviewed this item and determined that the
proposed amendments do not constitute a substantial change to the Specific Plan and
that there have been no substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under
which Specific Plan amendments are undertaken. The proposed amendment is within
the scope of Environmental Assessment No. 474. Further, future proposals would be
subject to review as required by CEQA. As a result, no further environmental review is
necessary other than the approval of this Addendum.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Prior to the adoption of the Downtown Specific Plan (DSP), the area was zoned Downtown
Commercial(CR-S). This zoning permitted residential units only as upper-floor accessory uses at
a density of 1 unit per 4,356 square feet of lot area. The code at the time required 2 parking spaces
per unit.
In 1998,the City Council created the Downtown Task Force comprised of community and business
leaders appointed by the City Council. In November 1998, the Task Force presented a summary
report entitled "Developing a Vision for Downtown El Segundo." The City Council reviewed the
report and recommendations, and later directed staff to begin the preparation of a Downtown
Specific Plan to implement the vision plan document. In July 1999, the City Council re-formed
the Downtown Task Force to develop a Specific Plan and Vision Statement for future development
of the Downtown area. The aim of the Specific Plan was the revitalization of the core area of the
City, in order to make the Downtown more walkable and livable. The Downtown Task Force
conducted numerous public meetings and workshops, resulting in a Specific Plan Concept
Document and Vision Statement, which included allowing residential units on the second floor of
commercial buildings. The draft Specific Plan document was presented to the Planning
Commission, which then made a recommendation that the City Council adopt the DSP.
On June 20, 2000, the City Council considered the draft DSP, which included a recommendation
that two residential units per 25-foot wide lot be allowed, and that two on-site parking spaces be
provided per unit. The Council directed staff to investigate the feasibility of requiring that the
residential unit above a commercial space be occupied only by the owner of the business below.
The City Attorney's office then opined that such a development standard would be unenforceable,
and the City Council directed staff to delete the allowance for residential units within the DSP.
Thus,on August 1,2000,the City Council adopted a DSP that did not list residential as a permitted
use, effectively prohibiting residential uses and development in the downtown area.
The following year, however, the City Council directed staff to amend the DSP to allow the
development of dwelling units on the second floor of buildings for tenants/business owners of the
first floor businesses only. As part of the Planning Commission's review, the Commission
questioned the enforceability of the amendment and discussed the benefits of residential use
downtown (i.e. eyes on the street, reduction of vehicle usage and the enhanced cash flow to the
business owner). As a result, the Commission instead recommended that the DSP be amended to
allow unrestricted residential use above the first floor within the DSP area.
On May 1, 2001 the City Council considered the Planning Commission's recommendation to
permit residential units within the DSP with no restrictions. However, after deliberation, the City
Council voted to amend the DSP in accordance with its original direction to staff, to allow
development of upper-level dwelling units in the downtown, provided they are only occupied by
tenants/business owners of the first floor businesses. The amended DSP also established a density
of one unit per 3,500 square feet of lot area; and, because the commercial tenant below would be
the same person living upstairs, residential parking was not required.
151
On April 13, 2017, the Planning Commission considered an application by local real estate agent,
Bill Ruane, requesting an amendment to the DSP to remove the restriction on upper-floor
residential units.A public hearing was held and three members of the Planning Commission heard
public testimony (Commissioners Nisley and Wingate recused themselves from participation due
to conflicts of interest; Vice Chair Newman also had a conflict of interest, but was randomly
selected to participate to achieve a quorum of the Commission). The commissioners agreed that
the restriction on upper-level residential units should be removed.
Staff also sought direction on parking requirements for new residences in the downtown area.
Based on its discussion, the Planning Commission concluded that parking should not be what is
typically required of residential developments (i.e., 2 spaces per unit) and that a lower ratio is
justified. As a result, the Planning Commission directed staff to return with a resolution offering
the following two options for consideration:
1) Require 0.5 space per new residential unit.
2) Require no spaces for the first new residential unit on a property, and 0.5 per each
additional unit on a property.
On April 27, 2017 the Planning Commission unanimously adopted a resolution, recommending
the City Council adopt the ordinance, which would remove the upper-level residential restriction,
and establish a new residential parking requirement of 0.5 spaces per unit(the first option).
It is worth noting that the DSP allows developers to pay a fee under the City's parking in-lieu fee
program rather than provide the required parking space. The program currently requires $17,500
per space,which can be paid over a maximum period of 20 years. Funds collected by the City from
such payment is deposited in a special fund and used by the City only to acquire and/or develop
additional parking and related facilities that are determined by the City Council to be necessary to
serve the downtown area, such as recent improvements on Richmond Street. The proposed
amendment makes no change to this program.
OTHER PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE DSP
In addition to this amendment, staff is proposing that other sections of the DSP be amended to
clarify certain sections of the document since it is important that that the DSP be clear in all related
language and standards. As a result, the following changes are proposed:
I. Introduction: The DSP contains the following statement: "The final Plan will not allow the
development of any new residential units, although the existing units may continue and
may be rebuilt if accidentally destroyed." The statement will be removed since it is
language left from the original DSP that was never removed when new residential units
became allowed in 2001.
2. Hem: the current DSP height standard for each district is verbose and difficult to
understand. Staff proposes simplified wording that does not change the standards required.
3. Residential density: the current limit to residential density is worded ambiguously. It
states: "The maximum residential density shall not exceed one dwelling unit per 3,500
square foot lot.If the lot is less than 3,500 square feet,one unit is allowed." A strict reading
152
prohibits more than one residential unit per lot regardless of lot size. Staff believes that
such a reading constitutes a misinterpretation of the intent of the standard, and therefore
new language is proposed.
4. Parking: the DSP explains that additional parking is not required for upper-floor residential
units because "People who occupy the residential units will be the ones working in the
commercial units". Because this is not consistent with the amendment, staff proposes that
the explanatory language be removed.
5. Parking in-lieu fees: staff believes that it is important to clearly state that parking in-lieu
fees are rounded together up to the whole number of required parking spaces to be waived.
6. Parking required for public assembly: this section references the outdated Uniform
Building Code. Staff proposes that this reference be removed.
FINDINGS
Consistency with the El Segundo Municipal Code.
Pursuant to ESMC Title 15, Chapter 26 (Amendments), in order to recommend City Council
approval of the proposed amendments, the Planning Commission must find that the amendments
are necessary to carry out the general purpose of ESMC Title 15. The purpose of this Title(ESMC
§ 15-1-1) is to serve the public health, safety, and general welfare and to provide economic and
social advantages resulting from an orderly planned use of land resources. Planning staff believes
that the Planning Commission can make the findings in order to recommend City Council approval
of the proposed amendment. The findings are discussed in the proposed resolution.
Consistency with the El Segundo General Plan
ESMC § 15-1-1 (Purpose, Title) states that Title 15 is the primary tool for implementation of the
goals, objectives, and policies of the El Segundo General Plan. Accordingly, the Planning
Commission must find that the proposed Specific Plan Amendment is consistent with those goals,
objectives, and policies. Planning staff believes that the Planning Commission can make the
findings in order to recommend City Council approval of the proposed amendment. The findings
are discussed in the proposed resolution.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Downtown Specific Plan was evaluated by an adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration
(Environmental Assessment No. 474) ("MND")on August 1,2000. Addendum No. 1 to the MND,
attached to the proposed ordinance as Exhibit"A" and incorporated by this reference, determined
that the proposed amendments to the Downtown Specific Pan would not result in any new or
different impacts that were not identified in the prior MND. None of the conditions described in
CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 (14 CCR § 15164), which identifies when a subsequent MND is
153
required, has been met, and therefore the City prepared an Addendum to the previously approved
MND. The proposed ordinance would adopt Addendum No. 1 to the MND.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council introduce and waive first reading of a draft Ordinance,
and schedule a second reading and adoption of the Ordinance to occur on June 6,2017. If adopted,
the Ordinance would take effect 30 days after adoption.

ORIGINATED BY: John Gilmour, Senior Engineering Associate
REVIEWED BY: Ken Berkman, Director of Public Works
APPROVED BY: Greg Carpenter, City Manager ;
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The City is the owner of and responsible for maintaining its water transmission and distribution
system. Standard practices call for replacing lines every 50-70 years due to natural degradation
from soil chemistry and chlorinated potable water sources. Staff regularly evaluates the conditions
155
of the pipes to develop and prioritize a replacement schedule each year. The water main on Center
Street has experienced several breakages over the past years. Staff evaluated subsequently its
condition and determined that the segment between Pine Avenue and El Segundo Boulevard
(2,100 feet) is in urgent need of replacement. This work was identified and approved in FY
2016/17 Budget as part of the Capital Improvement Program and will advance our ultimate goal
to replace all of our aging water infrastructure.
On April 18,2017, City Council adopted the plans and specifications for the Project and authorized
staff to advertise for construction bids. On May 16, 2017, the City Clerk received and opened
seven(7) bids as follows:
1. Stephen Doreck Equipment Rentals, Inc. $680,745
2. Kana Pipeline, Inc. $746,000
3. Sully-Miller Contracting Co. $845,000
4. Ramona, Inc. $852,555
5. Ampco Contracting, Inc. $939,650
6. Blois Construction, Inc. $1,045,900
7. Colich & Sons LP $1,142,700
The lowest responsive and responsible bidder was Stephen Doreck Equipment Rentals, Inc. Staff
has been satisfied with the work Doreck has performed for the City in the past and checked
additional references to verify satisfactory performance for other agencies, and confirmed the
contractor's license is active.
Staff has contracted with AKM Consulting Engineers, Inc. for inspection and testing services on
several similar projects and has found them to be highly competent at providing these services.
Staff has also verified that AKM Consulting Engineers, Inc.'s rates are typical of the market for
this type of service.
Staff therefore respectfully recommends that City Council:
1) Authorize the City Manager to execute a standard Public Works Contract, in a form
approved by the City Attorney, with Stephen Doreck Equipment Rentals, Inc. in the amount of
$680,745.00 and approve an additional $102,110.00 for construction-related contingencies; and,
2) Authorize the City Manager to execute a standard Public Works Professional Services
Agreement in a form as approved by the City Attorney with AKM Consulting Engineers in the
amount of $78,145.00 for construction inspection and geotechnical (compaction) oversight and
testing, and approve an additional $10,000.00 for related contingencies
With Council's approval, construction is expected to start in late June or early July and be
completed in October 2017. Note that the segment north of Grand Avenue will be occur first to
ensure construction is completed before school returns to session.
Any remaining funds will be returned to the Water Enterprises Fund.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The construction of the El Segundo Athletic Field facility was completed in July 2007 which
included two synthetic turf fields, used for soccer, lacrosse, and flag football. Synthetic fields
are typically built to last between 8-10 years, with normal use on the fields. The Campus El
Segundo fields are heavily utilized given the high demand, low rental cost and sports lighting.
The funds to replace the worn turf have been identified and adopted in the FY 2016/17 budget
with a total allocation of$1,202,600.
On April 4, 2017, the City Council adopted the plans and specifications for Project No. PW 17-
10, El Segundo Athletic Fields Turf Replacement Project, and authorized staff to advertise for
receipt of construction bids.
On April 25, 2017, the City Clerk received and opened two (2)bids as follows:
1. FieldTurf USA, Inc.: $704,980.71
2. Sprinturf, LLC: $736,169.00
The lowest responsive and responsible bidder is FieldTurf USA, Inc. (FieldTurf). Staff checked
the Contractor's license status and references, and found FieldTurf and subcontractors have
satisfactorily met the City's requirements and has successfully completed similar projects for
other public agencies.
Optional Alternative Bid Item
An optional alternative bid item to install FieldTurf Vertex Prime was included in the bid
documents to provide a more durable and better quality turf system, should the budget allow.
The Vertex Prime system offers several advantages over the base bid item, including better
durability, more natural feel, better ball movement, superior aesthetic appearance, and greater
infill encapsulation that reduces displacement of the rubber and sand infill. The Vertex Prime
system also uses cryogenic rubber instead of ambient rubber, which is cryogenically frozen and
then shattered into small, smooth-edged particles. The smooth shape facilitates a consistent flow
of water through the infill without raising and displacing any rubber while allowing rubber and
sand to remain in suspension in a layered system, providing an optimal mix for a safe and
consistent playing surface. Additionally, a top coat of CoolPlay will be added, which is green in
color to help keep the playing field cooler in temperature, as well as providing some relief in the
perception that the rubber is a health hazard.
The Recreation and Parks Commission not only supports staff s recommendation to continue to
utilize a rubber system (versus an alternative infill such as coconut coir or cork which would be
less costly), but also recommended replacing the turf fields with the best quality, most durable
rubber system that the allocated budget will allow to ensure that the field maintains its original
qualities as long as possible.
FieldTurf bid the alternative item for $874,582.00 and the base bid item 45 of FieldTurf Vertex
for $540,980.71. Awarding the alternative bid item in lieu of the base bid item #5 will bring the
total contract amount to $1,038,582.00. Staff recommends the alternative bid item of FieldTurf
Vertex Prime to be awarded in place of the base bid item of FieldTurf Vertex, along with the rest
of the bid items. There is sufficient funding in the budget to cover the extra cost of the alternative
bid item.

Bid Protest
A bid protest was received on May 2"a, 2017 (dated May 1", 2017) from Sprinturf, LLC
(Sprinturf). Among the items that Sprinturf protested was that FieldTurf checked a box on their
bid proposal indicating they are not registered in accordance with Labor Code 1725.5, and that
FieldTurf printed their name but did not sign on the Bidder's Statement of Past Contract
Disqualifications form. City staff verified that FieldTurf is in fact registered with Labor Code
1725.5 and the box was checked erroneously. After review of the protest letter in cooperation
with the City Attorney's Office, staff concluded that FieldTurf remains the lowest responsive and
responsible bidder. The protest and City response letters are attached.
In an abundance of caution, however, staff recommends that the following items to be identified
as a minor irregularity and waived by the City Council:
1. The lowest bidder, FieldTurf USA Inc. erroneously checked a box on their bid proposal
indicating they are not registered with Department of Industrial Relation while in fact
FieldTurf USA Inc. is registered in accordance with Labor Code 1725.5.
2. The lowest bidder, FieldTurf USA Inc., neglected to sign the Bidder's Statement of Past
Contract Disqualifications; however, FieldTurf USA Inc. principals did sign other documents
within the bid documents. FieldTurf s failure to sign would not allow it to be relieved of its
bid; therefore, FieldTurf did not gain an unfair advantage by failing to sign.
Recommendation
Staff respectfully recommends City Council waive the minor irregularities in the bid proposal
from FieldTurf and authorize the City Manager to execute a standard Public Works Contract in a
form approved by the City Attorney with FieldTurf USA, Inc. in the amount of$1,038,582.00,
which is the amount for the FieldTurf Vertex Prime product, and authorize an additional
$103,858.20 for construction related contingencies.
Construction is slated to commence in late July and be completed in August 2017.

Re: Formal Protest of Bid: El Segundo Athletic Fields Turf Replacement. Project no. PW 17-
10
To: Cheryl Ebert, Project Manager
This is a formal protest submitted by Sprinturf, LLC for solicitation project El Segundo
Athletic Fields Turf Replacement Project no. PW 17-10. Sprinturf LLC should be awarded
as the low responsive bidder. Fieldurf USA failed to properly fill out the bid forms as
required and the bid was non-competitive based on California Contract Code 9.2.1 which
clearly states that the purpose of public contract law is to clarify and ensure full compliance
with competitive bidding requirements but also to "eliminate favoritism,fraud,and
corruption in the awarding of public contracts."
Fieldturf USA failed to sign the Bidders Statement of Past Contract Disqualifications and is
not registered with Labor Code 1725.5. Per the bid documents,The City of E1 Segundo
states they will reject Fieldturf USA as nonresponsive if not registered. Fieldturf clearly
marked the box"no" for not being registered.
The bid documents were changed several times giving Fieldturf USA a bidding advantage
by allowing the Fieldturf Vertex Prime to be sole sourced as the base bid. After objection,
this was changed to allow all alternate products/vendors as the base bid. However,
Fieldturf Vertex Prime became the only alternate, again allowing Fieldturf a bidding
advantage with no other vendors/products as alternates.At the prebid meeting,several
turf vendors expressed their concerns of the Fieldturf product being the ONLY alternate.
This made the bid effective"sole source" and non-competitive. Fielduturf will not give
competitors pricing and competitors will not carry a Fieldturf price.This could also be
considered collusion. Sprinturf was not able to bid an alternate. It was announced at the
prebid meeting by the City Project Manager, Cheryl Ebert that there will not be an alternate
bid item. The next day an addendum was issued with the Fieldturf Vertex Prime as an
alternate bid item (Optional to bidders)but not allowing for an"or equal product"and
making the bid effectively a sole source and non-competitive process.El Segundo staff
843.936.6023 1 fax: 843.284.8823 1 550 Long Point Road, Suite 205 1 Mt. Pleasant, SC 1 29464
www.sprinturf.com I info @sprinturf.com I customercare @sprinturf.com 164
publicly mentioned several times,they wanted the Fieldturf Vertex Prime, again allowing a
bidding advantage. Fieldturf clearly altered their bid.This does not meet the competitive
bidding requirements set forth by the Public Contact code. California contract code 9.2.1
clearly states that the purpose of public contract law is to clarify and ensure full compliance
with competitive bidding requirements but also to "eliminate favoritism, fraud, and
corruption in the awarding of public contracts."
Sprinturf submitted a very detailed and document supported substitution request for equal
or superior product to the Fieldturf Vertex Prime. Documentation provided that Fieldturf
states their own vertex product lines can only with stand less than 2,000 hours of use per
year. An average field usage is 3,000+ hours per year. It is assumed Campus fields are
scheduled well over this. Sprinturf request for equal was rejected.
In addition, Fieldturf failed to list a subcontractor for the removal and recycling of the
current turf and infill system. There is no way to know if they intent to comply with this
requirement, nor can their pricing be fairly compared to other bidders because there is no
way to know who is performing the work, or where and how is the turf being disposed.
"10-0. DISPOSAL OF REMOVALS
All removed materials shall become the property of the Contractor. Materials shall be
legally discarded away from the site of work."
Note: There are no authorized dump facilities within the City of El Segundo
"SCOPE OF WORK
A.The work shall be comprised of removing the current infill and turf system for recycling,
minor regrade of the sand leveling course and porous aggregate base and installation of
new synthetic turf surface as specified herein."
The material defects in FieldturPs Bid makes Sprinurf LLC is the lowest responsive and
responsible bidder meeting the requirements set forth in City of El Segundo Atheltic Fields
Turf Replacement Project No. PW 17-10 and should be awarded the project based on the
solicitation you provided and addenda for this project.
Thank you for your consideration of this protest and we look forward to hearing from you
in a timely manner.

Council.

Citv's response: As stated in the specifications and in compliance with California law, any
material that was specified by brand, trade or proprietary name is deemed to be followed by the
words "or equal." As Sprinturf is aware, the City allowed bidders to submit proposed "equal"
items pursuant to the process outlined in Section 4-1 .6 ofthe bid.
On April 17, 2017, in Addendum 41 issued by the City. Sprinturf's request for substitution 01'
"Sprinturf Ultrablade Dual fiber Elite (DFE) with C'oolC"ap" was deemed acceptable as an
alternative bid product, but not acceptable as a base bid substitute product. After April 17, staff
determined that because no equivalent product for Vertex Prime had been identified, the City
issued Addendum 42. to make FieldTurf Vertex Cool Play and SprinturfDFF: Lxtreme C'oolCap
as the base bid items. In fact, the City issued Addendum 92 to allow more bidders the
opportunity to bid on the base bid items in an effort to avoid a potential "sole source" situation.
In other words. the City issued Addendum #2 to encourage more prospective bidders to bid on
the project, to ensure as ►Much as practicable, a competitive bidding, process. No collusion
occurred between the City and FieldTurf.
3. Sprinturrs sallcuation: "I"ieldturf failed to list a subcontractor for the removal and
recycling of the current turf and infill system."
Citv's response: The bid documents did not require tilt; bidder to list a separate subcontractor
for the removal and recycling ofcurrent turfand infill. Because FielclTurfdid not list a
subcontractor, FieldTurf effectively certified that it is qualified to perform and will perform that
portion of the work, and that the estimated amount of this work is included on their submitted bid
schedule. Thus, the City can fairly compare the bids, and this does not constitute a material
defect.
For the reasons set firth above, the City of El Segundo does not find substantial reason to reject
FieldTurf USA's bid. At the June 6. 2017, regular council meeting, City staff will recommend
that the City Council award the contract to FieldTurf LISA. You are welcome to attend the
meeting, held at 7:00 p.m. in the City Hall Council Chambers.

The City of El Segundo (hereinafter referred to as "City of El Segundo" or"Client"), is in the process of several
technology projects and would like to use Prosum's technical expertise and resources from time to time for
support. As a result of multiple projects conducted by Prosum previously, Prosum consultants have a good
understanding and familiarity with many components of City of El Segundo's infrastructure. Therefore, City of
El Segundo would like a mechanism to request Prosum's assistance with both unanticipated issues and
scheduled enhancements.
As a result, City of El Segundo and would like to structure a flexible arrangement in which various Prosum
subject matter experts can be applied as appropriate, in the form of a "block of hours" support agreement.
Prosum's Headquarters is also located in El Segundo and as a result, resources can quickly be dispatched to
support City of El Segundo's IT infrastructure.
The following outlines the approach and estimated costs for this pre-paid "block of hours" support. Prosum will
provide services on a time and material basis to draw against this pre-paid block of hours. Prosum will work at
the direction of City of El Segundo and the scope of this engagement will be defined as necessary by City of El
Segundo.Any deliverables for this engagement will be collaboratively defined between City of El Segundo &
Prosum.

MU r ao off Go�&Ma."e&Pam:
In addition to being a Gold certified partner with Microsoft, Prosum is one of only a handful of infrastructure
service providers in the Los Angeles area to have obtained 'Managed Partner' status with Microsoft. The
'Managed Partner' designation is reserved for a select number of partners in Southern California who have
strong knowledge of Microsoft technologies, proven excellence in the implementation of these
technologies, and high customer satisfaction ratings. Managed Partners enjoy a direct relationship with the

groups.

first El Segundo Corporate Games. OMNI is a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business

to both industry partners and federal government agencies in support of major defense acquisitions.
OMNI's expertise includes a variety of acquisition functional disciplines,including program,contract,and
financial management.
The vision of the El Segundo Corporate Games is to enhance economic development by creating business-
to-business networking opportunities and building relationships within the city's business community. In
addition, it will give the over 50,000 employees who travel to El Segundo for work an opportunity to
experience other aspects of the city through participation in friendly competition with other companies.
These sporting events will create more foot traffic in our downtown area,and increase the awareness of thel ►
many amenities our city has to offer. This effort is not for profit, and all of the funds collected from the
teams and sponsors will be used to host the event.

The long term objective of the El Segundo Corporate Games is to host a variety of sporting events each
year. The "pilot" event will be a co-ed Kickball Tournament on July 1St, 2017 at Richmond Field from
9am to 5pm. This tournament will consist of eight teams of 10-16 players battling it out for the title of
Corporate Competitor Champions. Each entry fee will provide teams a minimum of two games, team t-
shirts, and lunch from the local El Segundo restaurant,Beach Mex. The City of El Segundo logo will be
featured on the team t-shirts, as well as on promotional materials and invitations for the event.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI) Grant Program of 2015 provides federal grant funds
through the United States Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management
Agency, Grants Program Directorate (DHS). The State of California, through the Governor's
Office of Emergency Services acts as the "pass-through entity" for sub-award to the City of Los
Angeles for the benefit of the Los Angeles/Long Beach Urban Area cities.
Eligible fire department projects are applied for through the Los Angeles Area Fire Chiefs
(LAAFCA) group, with the goal of funding programs that benefit the region. On March 16, 2016
the El Segundo City Council approved UASI 2015 funding for the purchase of Urban Search and
Rescue (USAR) equipment and funding to cover overtime and back-fill expenses associated with
staff attending Homeland Security Exercise Programs. At this time the City of Los Angeles is
reallocating additional funds and increasing El Segundo's contract amount by $100,000 to cover
the costs of an Intelligence Officer position that will serve as a consultant to the Regional Training
Group (RTG) and fire chiefs within the region.
On March 01,2017 the City of El Segundo went out to bid seeking proposals from qualified parties
to provide the consulting services of an Intelligence Officer to the RTG and Los Angeles Area Fire
Chiefs' Association (LAAFCA). This new position will integrate with the RTG and assist with,
support, and further develop the training and response readiness of Los Angeles area fire agencies
for incidents of national significance including, but not limited to: acts of terrorism, natural
disasters, public health threats, cyber-attacks, major crime, and other large-scale incidents that
pose a threat to public or first-responder safety. On April 03, 2017, the Department received one
responsive bid that met all of the bid requirements and is the responsible bidder. Staff recommends
the approval of the professional services agreement as it is in alignment with the scope of work
needed to perform such services.
In accordance with the City Council Policy regarding grant submissions:
1. The grant award is made by the United States Department of Homeland Security, Federal
Emergency Management Agency, Grants Program Directorate (DHS). The grant is
administered by the City of Los Angeles.
2. The total amount being requested is: $100,000
3. Matching Funds Cost-Share: $100,000
4. Source of Matching Funds Cost Share: UASI 2015 Grant Funds (LA City Council File
No. 15-0734)
5. The grant does not provide up-front funding. Municipalities submit reimbursement
requests to the grant administrator after expenditures are made and processed for payment.
Approved requests are reimbursed by the City of Los Angeles. Once the contract is
complete,the grant supported Intelligence Officer Consultant position will have no impact
on the El Segundo general fund.

features(e.g.,cameras,fences,sirens,antennas,generators)and ground disturbance. See examples
below.
4. Identify ground disturbance. Adding graphics to a digital photograph is a means to illustrate the size,
scope and location of ground disturbing activities.
Best Practices
1. Provide photographs in a separate file.
2. Place no more than 2 pictures per page.
3. Compressing pictures files(such as with Microsoft Picture Manager)' or saving the file in pdf format
will reduce the size of the file and facilitate e-mail submissions.
4. Identify the photograph file with the project name so that it can be matched to the corresponding
FEMA EHP screening form.
5. Maximum file size for enclosures should not exceed 12 MB. If the total size of files for an EHP
submission exceeds 12 MB, send the submission in multiple e-mails.
6. if necessary,send additional photographs or data in supplemental e-mails. Please use the same e-mail
subject line with the additional label: 1 of x,2 of x, . . .x of x.
Options for Creating Photographs
1. Obtain an aerial photo. There are multiple online sources for aerial photographs.
2. For the aerial photo,use the screen capture feature(Ctrl+Print Screen keys) and copy the image to
photo editing software, such as Paint,or PhotoShop.' Use that software to crop the image so the
photo has the content necessary.
3. Open PowerPoint,or other graphics-oriented software,and paste the aerial or ground-level
photograph on the canvas.
4. Use drawing tools,such as line drawing and shapes,to indicate the location of project features(for
example: fencing,lighting,sirens, antennas, cameras, generators).
5. Insert text to label the features and to label the photograph.
6. Use drawing tools to identify ground-disturbing activities(if applicable).
7. Save the file with the project name or grant number so that it can be appropriately matched to the
corresponding FEMA EHP screening form. Include this file with the EHP screening when submitting
the project.
