INTRODUCTION:
The proposed zone text amendment amends various sections of the El Segundo Municipal Code
(ESMC) Title 15 (Zoning) to: (1) update definitions of terms, (2) clarify general provisions, (3)
modify minor development standards in the R -2 and R -3 zones, (4) modify permitted uses in
various nonresidential zones, (5) adjust parking standards, and (6) clarify and correct certain other
Zoning Code sections.
BACKGROUND:
The Zoning Code was last updated in a comprehensive manner in 1993. Since 1993, over 80
written determinations were approved by the various Directors of Planning and Building Safety
and the Planning Commission, and several more clarifications were made informally, which all
together resulted in a large body of interpretations of the zoning regulations not contained within
the zoning code and not obvious to the public. This large number of determinations and informal
interpretations renders the code unwieldy for staff and the public.
In June 2016, staff initiated a zone text amendment to address these administrative determinations,
interpretations, and various other corrections and clarifications identified in the last few years. The
draft ordinance addresses the vast majority of these issues. The discussion below summarizes the
changes in the proposed ordinance.
Planning Commission consideration
On June 8, 2017, the Planning Commission held a public hearing and considered the proposed
ordinance. At the conclusion of the public hearing, the Planning Commission voted 5 -0 to adopt
Resolution No. 2819 recommending approval of the ordinance as presented.
DISCUSSION:
1. New and updated definitions of terms
The proposed ordinance amends the Zoning Code to include definitions for the terms "animal
hospital" and "fitness center." In addition, it updates and clarifies the terms "retail sales," "lot
coverage," "medical- dental office," "general offices," and "research and development." These
updates and clarifications incorporate previous staff and Planning Commission interpretations into
the Zoning Code and improve staff's and the public's understanding of these terms.
2. Clarify and update general provisions
The proposed ordinance clarifies and updates provisions on the following topics: a) exceptions to
building height; b) height restrictions for walls and fences; c) corner and alley clearance; d) open
space areas and encroachments; e) screening; and f) landscaping and encroachments into
landscaping.
a) The proposed ordinance updates height provisions to incorporate staff and Planning
Commission interpretations and address the increased use of rooftops as private decks.
b) Height restrictions for walls and fences are outdated and difficult to interpret. The proposed
ordinance reflects current building code requirements regarding guard rails and clarifies other
provisions, particularly regarding retaining walls.
12
c) The proposed ordinance adds a requirement for a 5 -foot clearance area at the intersections of
alleys and streets to enhance pedestrian and vehicular safety. The required triangle is smaller
for alleys than street intersections due to slower travel speeds in alleys and due to concern
regarding the impact of the requirements on the affected private property
d) The proposed ordinance updates the permitted setback encroachments in residential zones to
incorporate additional encroachments of small accessory structures.
e) The equipment screening provisions are updated to clarify the permitted screening types,
height and locations, and to give the Director flexibility in implementing these requirements.
f) General landscaping provisions are updated to clarify that nonresidential perimeter landscape
setbacks are subject to the City's Water Conservation in Landscaping requirements and to
permit additional parking space encroachments into required interior side and rear yards.
3. Update the front yard setback requirements in the R -2 zone
The proposed ordinance permits porches, decks, and patio covers to encroach up to six feet into
the required front yard setback in the R -2 zone. These encroachments are permitted currently only
in the Single - Family Residential zone (R -1). Staff believes that these changes will help create a
better sense of a neighborhood in R -2 -zoned areas and will make the visual transition between R-
1 and R -2 properties more seamless. Furthermore, the proposed changes address requests from
residents and property owners to allow front yard porches and decks.
4. Modify the front yard setback and open space requirements in the R -3 zone
The proposed ordinance modifies the front yard setback requirements and the open space and
landscaping requirements in the R -3 zone.
a) The proposed ordinance removes front yard setback encroachment provisions in the R -3 zone
that conflict with the permitted encroachments in ESMC Chapter 15 -2 (General Provisions).
Similarly, the front yard setback is currently an average of 20 feet with a minimum of 15 feet.
The proposed ordinance sets minimum setback requirement of 15 feet. These changes simplify
and streamline the application of the requirements. Requiring a minimum setback of 15 feet
brings the buildings closer to the street and helps activate the public realm and creates a better
sense of a neighborhood.
b) The provisions for required open space areas and required landscaping area within those open
spaces are presently unclear and difficulty to apply. The proposed changes consolidate these
requirements and improve their presentation to make them easier to understand and apply. In
addition, the changes will allow the Director to approve adjustments from the minimum open
space dimensions and minimum landscaping. This change will provide more flexibility in the
design of multi - family developments, particularly on narrow lots where compliance with
parking, open space, and landscaping requirements is challenging.
13
5. Modify the permitted uses in various nonresidential zones
The proposed ordinance modifies the permitted uses in various nonresidential zones as follows:
a) It permits animal hospitals, daycare centers, and fitness centers in various commercial
zones. Animal hospitals and daycare centers are not listed as permitted uses and fitness
centers are listed only in the C -4 zone. However, an animal hospital currently operates in
the MM zone and several daycare and fitness centers operate in other commercial zones.
In some cases this is the result of determinations that those uses are similar to other
permitted uses, while in other cases it is the result of approved precise plans. Staff believes
that these uses are complementary to other nonresidential uses and adding them would
address a known demand for these services in the commercial zones.
b) It permits production studios (film, photography, etc.) in the Smoky Hollow Specific Plan
area. Productions studios are permitted east of Sepulveda Boulevard, but there is a growing
demand for studio space in Smoky Hollow. Some studio uses currently operate in Smoky
Hollow as a result of Director determinations that such uses are similar to other permitted
uses. Permitting these uses in the SB and MM zones addresses a demand for studio and
creative office space which is consistent with the City's long -term vision.
c) It permits car rental agencies in various commercial zones subject to a conditional use
permit. This change formalizes an existing determination that this use is similar to other
conditionally permitted uses.
d) The draft ordinance permits indoor dog daycare by right and animal boarding or outdoor
daycare subject to a conditional use permit in the M -1 zone. Permitting these uses in the
M -1 zone addresses a demand for these services and controls potential impacts, such as
noise and odors, through the conditional use permit process for animal boarding and
outdoor dog daycare.
e) It removes video arcades from the permitted uses citywide. Demand for video arcades has
vanished with the advent and proliferation of personal computers and smart phones.
f) It clarifies language regarding outdoor dining uses. The current language is difficult to
understand and can be misinterpreted. The proposed changes will simplify the language
and clarify that a conditional use permit is required only for outdoor dining areas that
exceed 200 square feet.
6. Modify the ESMC provisions regarding off -site parking.
The proposed ordinance expands the Director's authority to approve covenants for off -site parking.
The ESMC currently authorizes the Director to review covenants for a maximum of 20 parking
spaces or 20 percent of the required number of parking spaces, whichever is less. The proposed
ordinance would authorize the director to approve covenants for 20 parking spaces or 20 percent
of the required parking spaces, whichever is more.
7. Modify certain off - street parking development standards.
The proposed ordinance modifies standards for a) driveway and parking area paving; b) parking
space location; c) lighting; d) tandem spaces; and e) driveway and curb cut width as follows:
a) The ordinance clarifies the types of alternative paving material the Director can approve at
his /her discretion and through an adjustment process.
b) The ordinance modifies the provisions regarding parking space encroachments into required
setbacks to be consistent with changes made in the landscaping general provisions.
14
c) The ordinance eliminates the minimum lighting requirements for parking areas. Parking lot
lighting is currently regulated by state energy efficiency regulations, which aim to reduce
unnecessary glare and light pollution. In addition, the City Council recently adopted minimum
lighting standards for public safety purposes. The proposed change will eliminate the
inconsistency between the Zoning Code and state energy efficiency regulations while
maintaining the City's ability to require sufficient lighting for public safety.
d) The ordinance reduces the permitted depth of tandem spaces from three to two spaces. Staff
believes that two spaces is more practical because it requires less coordination among users.
e) The ordinance reduces the width of curb cuts and onsite driveways for multi - family
developments and nonresidential developments. Two -way curb cuts and driveways would
require a minimum of 18 feet instead of 20 feet. In addition, one -way curb cuts and driveways
would require a minimum of 12 feet instead of 20 feet. These new widths are adequate and
consistent with the required widths for drive aisles in parking lots.
8. Modify the parking requirements for daycare uses and multi - family residential uses.
The proposed ordinance sets a new parking requirement for daycare facilities and modifies the
requirement for visitor parking spaces for multi - family residential uses.
a) The Zoning Code currently has a parking requirement for schools, including preschool through
junior high level, but does not address daycare for children under preschool age and adults.
Staff reviewed the parking requirements for similar uses in the ESMC and conducted a survey
of several cities in the Los Angeles region. Based on this review, staff proposes a standard of
1 space for every 7 adults or children served, plus one space for each staff member. The
proposed standard is reasonable because it addresses both staff parking and drop off needs.
b) The Zoning Code currently requires two visitor parking spaces for the first 3 -5 units, and 2
additional spaces for every 3 units above 5. Staff believes that the requirement is onerous
particularly for developments on smaller, narrow lots. As a result of this requirement (and
other parking standards, it is difficult for property owners to develop their properties at the
densities permitted in the R -3 zone. As a consequence, there is an observed increase in requests
for adjustments related to guest parking. Staff proposes a parking ratio of 1 parking space for
every 3 units. This is consistent with the majority of cities surveyed.
General Plan and Zoning Consistency
Consistency with the El Segundo Municipal Code.
Pursuant to ESMC Title 15, Chapter 26 (Amendments), in order to approve the proposed
amendments, the City Council 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. Staff believes that the City Council can make the findings
to approve the proposed amendment. The findings are discussed in the proposed ordinance.
15
Consistency with the El Segundo General Plan
ESMC Section 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 City
Council must find that the proposed Zone Text Amendment is consistent with those goals,
objectives, and policies. Staff believes that the City Council can make the findings in order to
approve the proposed amendment. The findings are discussed in the proposed resolution.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Approval of the proposed 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 the ordinance consists only of minor revisions and clarifications to existing
zoning regulations and related procedures. It does not have the effect of deleting or substantially
changing any regulatory standards or findings required thereof. The proposed Ordinance is an
action that does not have the potential to cause significant effects on the environment. In addition,
any environmental impacts associated with this ordinance are adequately addressed in the General
Plan FEIR. Accordingly, this ordinance is consistent with the General Plan FEIR and is exempt
from further environmental review requirements under CEQA. Furthermore, this ordinance
constitutes a component of the El Segundo Municipal Code which the Planning Commission
determined to be consistent with the FEIR for the City of El Segundo General Plan on December
1, 1992. Accordingly, no further environmental review is required pursuant to 14 Cal. Code Regs.
§ 15168(c)(2).
RECOMMENDATION:
Planning staff recommends that the Council:
1. Introduce an Ordinance (Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA 16 -05) regarding
amendments to various sections of the Zoning Code;
2. Schedule second reading and adoption of the Ordinance for July 18, 2017;
3. Alternatively, discuss and take other possible action related to this item.

parking covenants for more than NweRty (20) parking spaces than the Director is
authorized to approve. The parking covenant may include such conditions as the
planning commission may lawfully impose.
4. Off Site Parking Findings Of Approval: Requests for off site parking must meet the
following requirements:
a. The off site parking must be located so that it will adequately serve the use for
which it is intended. In making this determination, the following factors, among
other things, must be considered.
(1) Proximity of the off site parking facilities (i.e., 750 feet is a reasonable
maximum walking distance for high turnover uses such as retail sales,
services and restaurants):
(2) Ease of pedestrian access to the off site parking facilities;
(3) Provisions for transportation to and from the off site parking facility (e.g., shuttle
or valet services);
(4) The type of use the off site parking facilities are intended to serve (i.e., 94 site
parking) may not be apprGpriate f— hir,4, +i'FRGyer wr a riGr.h .mac retail ,Wes—an4

SECTION 44: Section 15 -15 -5 (Off- Street Parking Development Standards) is
amended to read as follows:
B. Driveway And Parking Area Paving And Surfacing: All permanent on site parking,
loading, vehicle storage and vehicle sales areas must be paved with approved
concrete or asphaltic concrete. On site parking areas to be used for not longer than
one year must be surfaced and maintained with an impervious material acceptable
to the dDirector so as to eliminate dust and mud. All
on site parking areas must be graded and drained so as to dispose of all surface
water in accordance with the applicable stormwater regulations. The dDirector of
p1af*r4nq—aPA—b.ujWing--safety may at his discretion, approve alternative paving
material such as decorative concrete, permeable concrete, grasscrete, brick, or
similar material of equivalent durability. The dDirector e# lanning a buildi g -safety
may approve administrative adjustments from the driveway and parking area paving
standards for non - standard roadbed construction and alternative roadway

EL SEGUNDO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING DATE: June 6, 2017
AGENDA STATEMENT AGENDA HEADING: Public Hearing
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
Consideration and possible action regarding Environmental Assessment No. EA -1161 and Zone
Text Amendment No. ZTA 16 -05 to amend various sections of the El Segundo Municipal Code
(ESMC) Title 15 (Zoning Code) to: (1) update definitions of terms, (2) clarify general provisions,
(3) modify minor development standards in the R -2 and R -3 zones, (4) modify permitted uses in
various nonresidential zones, (5) adjust parking standards, and (6) clarify and correct certain other
Zoning Code sections. (Fiscal Impact: None)
RECOMMENDED PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: It is recommended that the
Planning Commission open the public hearing and take public testimony on the proposed
ordinance; close the public hearing and consider the evidence; and adopt Resolution No. 2819
recommending that the City Council adopt the proposed Ordinance.
ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS:
1. Proposed Planning Commission Resolution No. 2819
a. Proposed Ordinance
ORIGINATED BY: Paul Samaras, Principal Planner,
REVIEWED BY: Gregg McClain, Planning Manager J
APPROVED BY: Sam Lee, Director of Planning and Building Safety
INTRODUCTION:
The proposed ordinance is part of staff's efforts to continuously improve and update the Zoning
Code, so that it better fulfills its purpose "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" (ESMC Section 15 -1 -1). The proposed ordinance makes more than 50 individual
changes, not counting typographical corrections, condensing and streamlining language, and other
miscellaneous clarifications that affect seven out of 28 chapters in the Zoning Code. Staff intends
to similar "omnibus" ordinance on a yearly basis.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
Background
The Zoning Code was last updated in a comprehensive manner in 1993. In addition, it was
amended several times to address specific issues or to update specific chapters, such as an update
to the City's off - street parking regulations (2011) and an update to the R -1 zone regulations (2017).
In -lieu of comprehensively updating the Code, city staff used administrative determinations and
interpretations to clarify certain code provisions and to specific land uses. Since 1993, over 80
written determinations were approved by the Director and the Planning Commission and several
f� IM
-
more clarifications were done informally, which resulted in in a large body of interpretations of
the zoning regulations not contained within the zoning code, and not obvious to the public. This
large number of determinations and informal interpretations renders the code unwieldy for staff
and the public.
In June 2016, staff initiated a zone text amendment to address these administrative determinations,
interpretations, and various other corrections and clarifications identified in the last few years. The
draft ordinance addresses the vast majority of these issues. The discussion below summarizes the
changes in the proposed ordinance.
Discussion
1. New and updated definitions of terms
Description
The proposed ordinance amends ESMC Section 15 -1 -6 to include definitions for the terms a)
Animal hospital and b) Fitness center.
a) Animal hospitals are not listed as permitted uses in any zone in the City and are not defined
either. However, an animal hospital was permitted in the Medium Manufacturing (MM)
zone with a conditional use permit as a result of an interpretation that it was similar to other
uses permitted in the MM zone. Staff receives occasional inquiries from the public to allow
animal hospitals in commercial zones, so it was important as a first step to include a
definition of the term in the ESMC.
b) Fitness centers are listed as a permitted use only in the Commercial Center (C -4) zone.
However, they were permitted in other commercial zones as a result of interpretations that
it is similar to other permitted uses. Staff regularly receives interest from the public to
permit fitness centers in other commercial zones so it is important to include a definition
of the term. In addition, fitness centers (or gyms) are sometimes confused with studios for
martial arts and with recreational facilities. It is important to distinguish between these
uses.
In addition to the new definitions above, the proposed ordinance includes updates and
clarifications to the terms "Retail sales," "lot coverage," "Medical- dental office," "general
offices," and "research and development." The purpose of these updates and clarifications is to
incorporate previous staff and Planning Commission interpretations and to improve both staff s
and the public's understanding of these terms.
2. Clarify and update general provisions in ESMC Chapter 15 -2 (General Provisions)
Description
The proposed ordinance clarifies and updates provisions on the following topics: a) exceptions to
building height (ESMC Section 15 -2 -3), b) height restrictions for walls and fences (ESMC Section
15 -2 -4), c) corner and alley clearance (ESMC Section 15 -2 -6), d) open space areas and
encroachments (ESMC Section 15 -2 -7), e) screening (ESMC Section 15 -2 -8), and f) landscaping
and encroachments into landscaping (ESMC Section 15- 2 -14).
2 263
63
a) The exceptions to building height provisions are updated in the proposed ordinance to
incorporate staff and Planning Commission interpretations particularly in light of the
increased use of rooftops as decks for private open space.
b) The height restrictions for walls and fences are outdated and often difficult to interpret.
The proposed change reflects current requirements in the building code regarding guard
rails and clarifies other provisions, particularly regarding retaining walls.
c) Corner clearance provisions are updated in the proposed ordinance to add a requirement
for a 5 -foot clearance area at the intersection of alleys and streets to enhance pedestrian
and vehicular safety. The required triangle is smaller for alleys than street intersections
due to slower travel speeds in alleys and due to concern regarding the impact of the
requirements on the affected private property
d) The permitted setback encroachment provisions in residential zones are updated in the
proposed ordinance to incorporate interpretations allowing additional encroachments of
small accessory structures.
e) The equipment screening provisions are updated to clarify requirements regarding the types
of permitted screening, to clarify where screening must be located and how tall it must be,
and to give the Director flexibility in implementing the screening requirements.
f) The general landscaping provisions are updated to clarify that nonresidential perimeter
setback areas must be landscaped in a manner consistent with the City's Water
Conservation in Landscaping requirements. In addition, the permitted parking space
encroachments into required landscape setback areas are modified to allow encroachments
up to the property line along interior side and rear yards.
3. Update the front yard setback requirements in the R -2 zone (SSMC Subsection 15 -4B-
6(D)(1))
Description
The proposed ordinance modifies the front yard setback requirements in the R -2 zone to permit
encroachments of porches, decks, and patio covers in the required front yard setback. The Single -
Family Residential (R -1) zone permits encroachments of porches, decks, and patio covers up to
six feet into the required front setback. These encroachments are important in that they improve
the appearance of residences and bring the building and its residents closer to the street, thereby
helping activate the public realm (the area between the residences and the street). Staff believes
that these changes will help create a better sense of a neighborhood in R -2 zoned areas and will
make the visual transition between R -1 and R -2 properties more seamless. Furthermore, the
proposed changes address requests from residents and property owners to allow front yard porches
and decks.

Subsections 15- 4C -5(D), 15- 4C -5(I) and 15- 4C -6(B))
Description
The proposed ordinance modifies a) the front yard setback requirements and b) the open space
requirements and landscaping requirements in required open space areas in the R -3 zone.
a) The front yard setback provisions in the R -3 zone currently contain language regarding
permitted encroachments that conflict with the permitted encroachments provisions in
ESMC Chapter 15 -2. The proposed ordinance would remove this conflicting language.
Similarly, the front yard setback requirement is currently an average of 20 feet with a
minimum of 15 feet, which is difficult to apply from case to case. The proposed ordinance
modifies the requirement by setting a single minimum setback requirement of 15 feet. The
changes simplify and streamline the application of the front yard setback requirements.
Requiring a minimum setback of 15 feet brings the buildings closer to the street and,
similarly to the R -2 provisions above, helps activate the public realm and creates a better
sense of a neighborhood.
b) The provisions for required open space areas and required landscaping area within those
open spaces are not presented clearly in the ESMC and cause difficulty in their application.
The proposed changes consolidate these requirements in one section and improve their
presentation. These changes will help staff and the public to better understand these
provisions and more easily apply them. In addition, the changes will allow the Director to
approve adjustments from the minimum open space dimensions and minimum
landscaping. This change will help allow more flexibility in the design of smaller multi-
family developments, particularly those on narrow lots where compliance with parking,
open space, and landscaping requirements is challenging.
5. Modify the permitted uses in various nonresidential zones
Descri tion
The proposed ordinance modifies the permitted uses in various nonresidential zones as follows:
a) It permits Animal hospitals, daycare centers, and fitness centers, in various commercial
zones. Animal hospitals and daycare centers are not listed as permitted uses in any
nonresidential zones and fitness centers are listed as permitted only in the C -4 zone.
However, an animal hospital operates in the MM zone and several daycare centers and
fitness centers operate in other commercial zones currently. In some cases this is the result
of determinations that those uses are similar to other permitted uses, while in other cases it
is the result of approved precise plans. Staff believes that these uses are complementary to
other nonresidential uses. Adding these uses would incorporate in the ESMC previous
interpretations, reflect current practice, address a known demand for these services, and
improve the mix of uses in the commercial zones.
b) Production studios (film, photography, etc.) in the Smoky Hollow Specific Plan area will
be permitted. Productions studios are permitted in the eastern portion of the City but there
is a growing demand for studio space in Smoky Hollow's SB and MM zones. Some studio
uses currently operate in Smoky Hollow as a result of Director determinations that such
uses are similar to other permitted uses. Permitting these uses in the SB and MM zones
addresses a demand for studio and creative office space which is consistent with the City's
long -term vision.
4 265
65
c) Car rental agencies in various commercial zones will be permitted subject to a conditional
use permit. Conditionally permitting car rental agencies in commercial zones formalizes
an existing determination that this use is similar to other conditionally permitted uses in
the same zones.
d) The draft ordinance permits indoor dog daycare by right and animal boarding or outdoor
daycare subject to a conditional use permit in the M -1 zone. Permitting these uses in the
M -1 zone addresses a demand for these services while limiting potential impacts such as
noise and odors. Requiring a conditional use permit for animal boarding and outdoor dog
daycare helps to address those potential impacts on a case -by -case basis.
e) Video arcades are removed from the lists of uses permitted subject to an administrative and
conditional use permit. Video arcades became an archaic use after the proliferation of
personal computers and smart phones..
f) Language regarding when a conditional use permit is required for outdoor dining uses is
clarified. The current language is difficult to understand and was misinterpreted as
requiring a conditional use permit for outdoor dining areas that are less than 200 square
feet. The proposed changes will simplify the language and clarify that a conditional use
permit is required only for outdoor dining areas that exceed 200 square feet.
6. Modify the SSMC provisions regarding off -site parking (SSMC Subsection 15- 15- 3(H)).
Description
The proposed ordinance expands the Director's authority to approve covenants for off -site parking.
The ESMC currently authorizes the Director to review covenants for a maximum of 20 parking
spaces or 20 percent of the required number of parking spaces, whichever is less. The proposed
ordinance would authorize the director to approve covenants for 20 parking spaces or 20 percent
of the required parking spaces, whichever is more. In addition, the ordinance establishes a
guideline of 750 feet as a reasonable maximum distance for off -site parking for high turn -over
uses, such as restaurants, retail sales and services.
7. Modify the following off - street parking development standards (Section 15- 15 -5): a)
Driveway and parking area paving, b) parking space location, c) lighting, d) permitted
tandem spaces, and e) driveway and curb cut width.
Description
The proposed ordinance modifies and clarifies those standards as follows
a) The ordinance would clarify the types of alternative paving material the Director can
approve at this/her discretion and through an adjustment process. These changes
incorporate into the ESMC two determinations made by the Director to clarify the intent
of the existing code language.
b) The ordinance would modify the provisions regarding parking space encroachments into
required setbacks to be consistent with changes made in the general provisions of ESMC
Section 15 -2 -14 (Landscaping). The intent, as stated before, is to allow for greater
flexibility in the design of parking lots in nonresidential zones.
c) The ordinance eliminates the minimum lighting requirements for parking areas. The
minimum lighting level currently is 1.25 foot - candles. The level is inconsistent with
recently adopted state energy efficiency regulations, which aim to reduce unnecessary glare
and light pollution. Furthermore, the City Council recently adopted minimum lighting
standards for public safety, with which the Zoning Code is also inconsistent. The proposed
✓ 266
66
change will eliminate the inconsistency between the Zoning Code and state energy
efficiency regulations while maintaining the City's ability to require sufficient lighting for
public safety.
d) The ordinance will reduce the permitted depth of tandem spaces from three to two spaces.
Staff believes that the currently permitted depth of three spaces is not functional in practice.
A depth of two spaces is practical because it requires less coordination among tenants .
e) The ordinance would reduce the width of curb cuts and onsite driveways for multi - family
developments and nonresidential developments. Specifically, curb cuts and driveways
providing two -way access will require a minimum of 18 feet instead of 20 feet.
Additionally, curb cuts and driveways providing one -way access will require a minimum
of 12 feet instead of 20 feet. These new widths are adequate and are consistent with the
required widths for drive aisles in parking lots.
8. Modify the parking requirements for a) daycare uses and b) multi- family residential uses
(SSMC Section 15- 15- 6(A)).
Description
The proposed ordinance a) sets a new parking requirement for daycare facilities and b) modifies
the requirement for visitor parking spaces for multi - family residential uses.
a) The Zoning Code currently has a parking requirement for schools, including preschool
through junior high level, but does not address daycare for children under preschool age
and adults. Staff reviewed the parking requirements for similar uses, such as schools, in
the ESMC and conducted a survey of several cities in the Los Angeles region. Based on
this review, staff proposes a standard of 1 space for every 7 adults or children served by a
facility, plus one space for each employee and faculty member. Staff considers this
standard reasonable because it addresses both staff parking and drop off needs.
b) The Zoning Code currently requires two visitor parking spaces for the first 3 -5 units, and
2 additional spaces for every 3 units above 5. Staff believes that the requirement is onerous
particularly for developments on smaller, narrow lots. As a result of this requirement (and
other parking standards, it is difficult for property owners to develop their properties at the
densities permitted in the R -3 zone. As a consequence, there is an observed increase in
requests for adjustments related to guest parking. Staff proposes a parking ratio of 1
parking space for every 3 units. This is consistent with the majority of cities surveyed.
9. Permit deviations from the required open space dimensions and landscaping area within
required open spaces.
Description.
The proposed ordinance modifies ESMC Chapter 15 -24 to allow the Director to approve
adjustments from the Dimensions of required open space and size of required landscaping areas in
the Multi- family residential (R -3) zone. The intent of the proposed change is to help provide more
flexibility in the design of smaller multi - family developments, particularly those on narrow lots
where compliance with parking, open space, and landscaping requirements is challenging.

General Plan and Zoning Consistency
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 Section 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 Zone Text 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 proposed zone text 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 existing zoning regulations and
related procedures. It does not have the effect of deleting or substantially changing any regulatory
standards or findings required thereof. The proposed Ordinance is an action that does not have the
potential to cause significant effects on the environment. In addition, any environmental impacts
associated with this ordinance are adequately addressed in the General Plan FEIR. Accordingly,
this ordinance is consistent with the General Plan FEIR and is exempt from further environmental
review requirements under the California Environmental Quality Act. Furthermore, this ordinance
constitutes a component of the El Segundo Municipal Code which the Planning Commission
determined to be consistent with the FEIR for the City of El Segundo General Plan on December
1, 1992. Accordingly, no further environmental review is required pursuant to 14 Cal. Code Regs.
§15168(c)(2).
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2819 recommending that
the City Council adopt the proposed Ordinance.

ORIGINATED BY: El Segundo Environmental Committee
SUBMITTED THROUGH: Ken Berkman, Director of Pubfi Works
APPROVED BY: Greg Carpenter, City Manager
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The United States recently pulled itself from the Paris Agreement on Climate Change (Paris
Agreement). The Paris Agreement requires participating nations to determine National Declared
Contributions (NDCs). The United States NDC was a reduction of 26 — 28 percent by 2025.
The State of California has the most aggressive greenhouse gas regulations and goals in the
country. The goals of the State are even more aggressive than the commitments made in the
Paris Agreement. The Global Warming Solutions Act (AB32) was passed by the California State
Legislature in 2006 to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. AB 32 established an emission
reduction target of 15 percent by 2020. Subsequently, SB32 extended AB32 to 2050 and
75
established new Statewide reduction targets of 40 percent by 2030 and 80 percent by 2050. It is
likely that individual California cities would meet the requirements of the Paris Agreement
largely through implementation of measures to comply with AB32 and SB32.
To date, 323 cities, representing a combined total of over 64 million Americans, have signed on
to uphold the commitments of the Paris Agreement and commit to working together to
strengthen local efforts for reducing GHG emissions. Joining the Climate Mayor's Network
represents an opportunity to reduce carbon emission, which directly affects climate. It would
also demonstrate the City's commitment to reducing municipal operating costs and reducing
costs for residents and businesses. In addition, it presents a marketing opportunity for the City to
attract new businesses, as hundreds of business leaders urged the Administration remain in the
Paris Agreement.
It is therefore respectfully recommended that the City Council approve the Resolution to join
other US cities in the Climate Mayor's Network in adopting and supporting the goals of the Paris
Agreement on Climate Change.
76
RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE PARIS AGREEMENT ON
CLIMATE CHANGE
The City Council of the City of El Segundo does resolve as follows:
SECTION 1: Recitals:
A. The City of El Segundo ( "City ") is committed to excellence and leadership in the
community;
B. The City, being a coastal city, is more susceptible to potential climate impacts
due to its proximity to the ocean;
C. The City recognizes that consensus exists among the world's leading climate
scientists that global warming caused by emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG)
from human activities is among the most significant problems facing the world
today;
D. The City is aware of the economic, environmental, and societal benefits of taking
a lead role in the implementation of energy efficiency and reduction of
greenhouse gas emissions;
E. The City recognizes that energy efficiency can result in significant cost savings
for residents and businesses;
F. In 2006, the State of California passed the California Global Warming Solutions
Act of 2006 (AB 32), which required the California Air Resources Board (GARB)
to develop regulations that would reduce California's GHG emissions to 1990
levels by 2020;
G. To support AB32, among other things, the state established targets to increase
retail sales of renewable electricity to 50 percent by 2030 and double the energy
efficiency savings in electricity and natural gas end uses by 2030 (SB350);
required the State Air Resources Board to complete a comprehensive strategy to
reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants by January 1, 2016 (SB605);
established a state goal of 1 million zero - emission and near - zero - emission
vehicles in service by 2020, amended the enhanced fleet modernization program
to provide a mobility option (SB1275);
H. In 2015 and 2016, the Legislature further extended the state's goals of reducing
GHG emissions to 40% below 1990 levels by 2030 and 80% below 1990 levels
by 2050 (SB 350, SB 32);
Page 1 of 3
77
In 2015, the U.S. joined 195 other members of the United Nations Framework
Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in adopting by consensus an
agreement commonly referred to as the "Paris Agreement on Climate Change"
under which each member country determines, plans and regularly reports its
own contribution to mitigating global warming;
J. The City respects that the Paris Agreement on Climate Change aims to reduce
carbon emissions and resulted in a commitment from almost every nation to take
action and enact programs to limit global temperature increase to less than 2
degrees Celsius, with an expectation that this goal would be reduced to 1.5
degrees in the future; and
K. The City Council desires to lead by example through the incorporation of
measures that increase energy efficiency and reduce GHG emissions.
SECTION 2: The City Council hereby:
1. Affirms its commitment to the energy efficiency and reduction of GHG emissions;
2. Agrees to join other U.S. cities in the Climate Mayor's Network in adopting and
supporting the goals of the Paris Agreement; and
3. Commits to exploring the potential benefits and costs of adopting policies and
programs that promote the long -term goal of GHG emissions reduction while
maximizing economic and social co- benefits of such action.
SECTION 3: The City Clerk is directed to certify the adoption of this Resolution; record
this Resolution in the book of the City's original resolutions; and make a minute of the
adoption of the Resolution in the City Council's records and minutes of this meeting.
SECTION 4: This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption and
remain effective unless superseded by a subsequent resolution.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On June 20, 2017, the City Council introduced an Ordinance to approve Environmental
Assessment No. EA -1177, Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA 16 -06 regarding Accessory Dwelling
Units (ADUs) in Residential Zones. The ordinance amends several sections of the El Segundo
Municipal Code (ESMC) to regulate accessory dwelling units (ADU) in the R -1 (Single - Family
L a
i
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.
The Council may waive second reading and adopt Ordinance 1550. If adopted, Ordinance will
become effective in 30 days.
..
ORDINANCE NO. 1550
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);
WE
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;
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
•K
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 and detached
accessory dwelling units will be restricted to a maximum size of 1,200
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;
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
91
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 TextAmendment 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

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.
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:
Lawfully existed on the parcel
the subject of a building perm)
2017; and
as of January 1, 2017 or were
duly issued before January 1,
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 may 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) detached from the single - family
7
95
residence, subject to the requirements and development standards in

INTRODUCTION:
The proposed zone text amendment would amend several sections of the El Segundo Municipal
Code (ESMC) 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 AND DISCUSSION:
On June 6, 2017, the City Council held a public hearing and considered a draft ordinance pertaining
to the regulation of accessory dwelling units. After taking public testimony, the City Council
closed the public hearing, discussed the item and gave staff direction to modify the draft ordinance
for the purpose of introducing it at its meeting on June 20, 2017. The City Council directed staff
to make the following changes:
1. Allow new construction of detached accessory dwelling units without limiting such units
to additions to the primary dwelling and to detached garages; and
2. Increase the maximum size limit for detached accessory dwelling units to 1,200.
Staff has made the above changes to the draft ordinance and is presenting the revised version for
the City Council's consideration. If introduced and adopted at second reading, the Ordinance will
take effect 30 days after adoption.
In addition, the City's code states that accessory structures may only be constructed if a covenant
is recorded on the property stating that the accessory structure may not be used as a dwelling unit.
Several residents with such covenants recorded on their properties have inquired about converting
their accessory structures into accessory dwelling units. Because such a conversion would require
the covenant to be released, staff seeks the City Council's direction regarding such covenants.
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, el 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).
RECOMMENDATION:
Planning staff recommends that the Council:
1. Introduce an Ordinance (Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA 16 -06) regarding Accessory
Dwelling Units in Residential Zones;
2. Authorize the Director of Planning and Building Safety to release covenants currently
recorded on accessory structures for those owners who apply to the City to convert such
structures into accessory dwelling units;
3. Schedule second reading and adoption of the Ordinance for July 5, 2017;
4. Alternatively, discuss and take other possible action related to this item.

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);
15
102
G. The Planning and Building Safety Department scheduled the public hearing
regarding the application before the Planning Commission for March 9,
2017;
K 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;
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;
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
16
103
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 and detached
accessory dwelling units will be restricted to a maximum size of 1,200
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;
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
65860, the ESMC amendments proposed
Segundo General Plan as follows:
required under Government Code Section
by the Ordinance are consistent with the El
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
17
104
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.
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:
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 may 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) detached from the single - family
7
21
108
residence, subject to the requirements and development standards in
this Code and state law.
C. The real property proposed for the accessory dwelling unit may not
consist of more than one lot.
D. The lot must contain an existing single - family dwelling. An accessory
dwelling unit may only be constructed in conjunction with a single - family
dwelling.
E. Separate Sale Prohibited. Accessory dwelling units may not be sold
separately from a primary dwelling.
F. 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.
G. 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.
H. 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.
I. Garage Conversions Prohibited. Garages and carports required under
this Title do not constitute "an existing accessory structure," as used in
this Article, 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:

AGENDA STATEMENT
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
MEETING DATE: July 5, 2017
AGENDA HEADING: Consent Agenda
Consideration and possible action authorizing the Fire Department to purchase a new 2017 Ford
CMax Hybrid SE from Airport Marina Ford for use within the Environmental Safety Division.
(Fiscal Impact: $24,999.99)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1) Pursuant to El Segundo City Code Section 1 -7 -18, accept the lowest most responsive bid and
authorize the Fire Department to purchase from Airport Marina Ford.
2) Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement, in a form approved by the City Attorney,
to purchase one (1) 2017 Ford CMax Hybrid SE with available Environmental Safety Division
Funds;
3) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS:
1) Quote from Airport Marina Ford
2) Quote from National Auto Fleet Group
3) Quote from South Bay Ford
FISCAL IMPACT: $24,999.99
Amount Budgeted: $0
Additional Appropriation: None
Account Number(s): 001 - 276 - 0000 -3210 ($24,999.99)
STRATEGIC PLAN:
Goal: 2 Support Community Safety & Preparedness
Objective: 1 El Segundo is a safe and prepared city
ORIGINATED BY: Carol Lynn Anderson, Senior Management Analyst
REVIEWED BY: Christopher Donovan, Fire Chief -'
APPROVED BY: Greg Carpenter, City Manager
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The Environmental Safety Division is charged with ensuring public safety through the on -going
inspection and regulation of all businesses that store, process and /or distribute hazardous materials.
The Division has two staff members, but only one vehicle which makes for conflicts in scheduling
field inspections and is an inefficient work practice. The current vehicle used is a 1990 Ford Crew
Cab Truck that was recently refurbished and is in good working condition. When available,
P C
113
Environmental Safety staff use a 2006 Ford Crown Victoria staff vehicle, but there is demand for
that vehicle with other fire department members. It is recommended that the Ford Crew Cab be
used by the Principal Environmental Specialist and the CMax be used by the Environmental Safety
Manager. Based on work demands and field inspections it is prudent to purchase this vehicle and
maintain two (2) front -line staff vehicles for use within the Environmental Safety Division, while
also keeping the 2006 staff vehicle for other department needs (examples include use by
suppression personnel to attend training out of the area or for back -up use if a front -line staff
vehicle requires maintenance). This recommendation will add one vehicle to the City fleet and
will undoubtedly require on -going coordination and communication with City yard staff to best
manage the maintenance of all fire department vehicles. These discussions are currently underway
and it is expected that a plan can be put into place to satisfy the public safety demands of the
Environmental Safety Division and Fire Prevention Division with the work/maintenance demands
of staff vehicles on public works personnel.
It is recommended that the City use Certified Unified Participating Agency (CUPA) funds that
have accumulated over the years from business inspections. This is an appropriate use of those
monies and does not impact the general fund. This purchase is also in alignment with AB2766,
the Motor Vehicle Subvention Program, which is aimed at reducing air pollution from motor
vehicles. To purchase this vehicle in a timely manner, the fire department would like to accept the
low bid from Airport Marina Ford, in alignment with purchase requirements established in El
Segundo Municipal Code § 1 -7 -8.

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The City of El Segundo is celebrating its Centennial year all throughout 2017. The Centennial Celebration
Executive Planning Committee is comprised of community residents, representatives from community
organizations and local businesses, elected officials and city staff. The committee has been planning and
implementing a variety of activities and events to commemorate the important milestone in the City's history
and to celebrate its bright future.
One of the upcoming special one -time events is Celebrate 11 a fireworks, projection and lighting show using El
Segundo High School as a backdrop. The event is being produced by Jeff Cason, formerly of Broadway in the
Park, and is sure to be a one -of -a -kind opportunity for the City of El Segundo to tell the story of the City
through amazing technology and choreography with pyrotechnics. A show of this scale has many complex
pieces including the creative design elements such as music composition, musical performances, voice -over
narration, animation design and lighting choreography. As the event producer, Jeff Cason is managing all
130 10
components of the event, given his experience and expertise in theater and production. To that end, the
Centennial Celebration Committee has full confidence that Jeff Cason Productions will produce a high - quality
show that will be a keepsake in many peoples' memories for years to come.
The committee has reviewed and approved the projected expenses for this show and fully understands the
various elements that make up the event budget. The Centennial Celebration activities are funded mostly by
sponsorships, donations, and revenue from merchandise sales and event admissions. For ease of
implementation and because of the nature of the work to be performed and their expected payment terms, City
staff recommends entering into a Professional Services Agreement with Jeff Cason Productions to manage and
handle all components, including payments, with the off -site creative design elements of the event, totaling
$34,467. All on -site vendors and contractors will remain under separate contracts directly with the City.

Game on Saturday, July 15, 2017, from 5:OOpm- 10:00pm, subject to compliance with all
Alcohol Beverage Commission regulations and permits, with the condition that they reserve the

BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
Alzheimer's Greater Los Angeles is sponsoring their 6th Annual Charity Women's Flag Football event to
be held at Campus El Segundo on Saturday, July 15, 2017, from 5:OOpm- 10:00pm on the west field. The
organization has paid all applicable field reservation fees for the west field and submitted the Special Event
Permit Application and required insurance certificates. A request has been submitted by Alzheimer's
Greater Los Angeles to sell beer and wine as a fundraising component of their event. Alzheimer's Greater
Los Angeles is a designated 5016 non - profit organization.
El Segundo Municipal Code Section 7 -6 -8 states that it is unlawful to drink any alcoholic beverage or
possess an open container of any alcoholic beverage upon any public street, alley, sidewalk, pathway,
parking lot, park, beach, or other public property. Alzheimer's Greater Los Angeles is requesting City
Council to waive Municipal Code Section 7 -6 -8 and allow the sale of beer and wine at their event.
Alzheimer's Greater Los Angeles will obtain the appropriate permit to operate a beer garden as regulated
by the Alcohol Beverage Commission and follow all rules and regulations. Event staff will be checking
identifications at the gate, and wrist bands to purchase beer and wine will be issued to those 21 years old
and over. While there are currently no other paid reservations for the facility on the opposite field it would
remain open to the general public during the times of the event. To eliminate the chances of the event
negatively impacting general public usage, or to avoid conflict of reserving the field to another group that
137 1 1
may not be a good fit (i.e. a youth sports tournament), staff recommends that the applicant reserve and pay
applicable fees for the east field, in addition to the west field, so as to ensure the entire facility is reserved
for this permitted use only. If the applicant reserves the entire facility, staff recommends approval of the
beer garden component because the event would be self - contained and there would be no concern of the
beer garden activities impeding upon normal park usage.

Alzheimer's GREATER LOS ANGELES
June 23, 2017
Dear Members of the City Council
Alzheimer's Greater Los Angeles, a 501c3 nonprofit organization, has been serving Greater Los Angeles for
more than thirty-six years. We are your local leaders in Alzheimer's and dementia care and the only full -
service dementia - focused charity with five local offices and 57 staff. Unlike large national organizations,
100% of the funds we raise support local programs and services. All our programs and services are free to
families and caregivers.
Our programs include:
Savvy Caregiver, training for caregivers that is proven to keep loved ones in their homes longer.
Care Counseling, a personalized care plan covering diagnosis to the end of life provided by one of
our Care Counselors, each of whom is a Master Level Social Worker (MLSW).
24/7 Helpline, providing information, emotional support and referrals to thousands of families
looking for help.
Alzheimer's Greater Los Angeles' ability to provide these services is made possible through events like
TackIeALZ, scheduled for July 15, 2017 at Campus El Segundo. Now in its sixth year, TackIeALZ, our
women's flag football game, represents three months of practice, training, and fundraising. Since
inception, the event has raised over $250,000 and we expect to raise another $50,000 this year.
Playing in TackIeALZ is an emotional event for women like Dawn Langford, who lost her mother on
December 17, 2013 to Alzheimer's disease. Dawn, and dozens of women like her, see this as an opportunity
to combine two passions — football and supporting local Alzheimer's care. They invite friends, family and
co- workers to cheer them on in the stands, give to our organization, and join in celebrating the memory of
those lost to Alzheimer's or dementia. Our goal is to deliver the best game -day experience possible.
This year, for the first time, we would like the opportunity to add a small "beer garden" to the event.
Alzheimer's Greater Los Angeles competes for awareness and donations with hundreds of other charitable
organizations. Our ability to engage and retain donors is directly linked to the experience we can deliver.
Just as The Kiwanis Club operates beer gardens at the Richmond Street Fair, we believe that the
opportunity to enjoy a craft beer adds to the experience of watching a football game.
We take seriously our responsibility to the communities and venues who host our events each year. Our
approach to TackIeALZ at Campus El Segundo is no different. We have built long -term relationships with
many of our host venues and look forward to doing the same with the City of El Segundo.
Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to your prompt reply.
Sin rely,
in

EL SEGUNDO CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM STATEMENT
AGENDA DESCRIPTION:
MEETING DATE: July 5, 2017
AGENDA HEADING: New Business
Consideration and possible action regarding options for streetscape and landscape improvements along
Main Street and Grand Avenue in Downtown El Segundo and upgrading two part-time Park Maintenance
Worker positions to full -time Park Maintenance Worker positions. (Fiscal Impact: $30,000 4140,000 from
Parks Salaries)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
1. Approve the transfer of $40,575 from Park Salaries to Park Operating Supplies to complete the
in -house purchase and installation of new plant material along the Downtown corridor; and /or,
2. Approve the upgrade of two part-time Park Maintenance Workers to full -time Park
Maintenance Workers; and /or,
3. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS:
1. Recommended Project Cost Estimates for City Employee (In- House) Installation
2. Proposal for Contracted Installation — LandCare
3. Cost Proposal for Recurring Maintenance of Downtown Planters — LandCare
FISCAL IMPACT: $30,000 - $140,000
Amount Budgeted: $0
Additional Appropriation: N/A — Transfer from Parks Salaries
Account Number(s): 001 - 400 -5102 -4102 —Parks Salaries
STRATEGIC PLAN:
Goal: 4 Develop Quality Infrastructure & Technology
Objective: 1 El Segundo's physical infrastructure supports an appealing, safe and
effective City
Goal: 5 Champion Economic Development & Fiscal Sustainability
Objective: 1 El Segundo promotes community engagement and economic vitality
PREPARED BY: Meredith Petit, Recreation and P ks Director
APPROVED BY: Greg Carpenter, City Manager .)l.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The streetscape is that part of the street right -of -way between the face of the curb and the building. In
Downtown El Segundo, the streetscape includes the sidewalk surface, street trees, street/pedestrian lights
and a collection of furnishings. These furnishings include benches, planters for flowers and plant material,
tree wells, trash receptacles, bicycle racks, and newsstands. A cohesive streetscape design can create a
common thread through the downtown area which contributes to a feeling of coherence and continuity.
Streetscapes provide a setting for community events, for development of adjacent private property, and for
the everyday interaction of people who frequent downtown. 1
143
Downtown El Segundo streetscapes are managed by both the Public Works Department and the Recreation
and Parks Department. The Recreation and Parks Department is responsible for the planters and trees,
while the Public Works Department is responsible for sidewalks, lighting, and site furnishings within the
right -of -way.
The existing plant material within the planters is old and outdated. When Main Street underwent major
improvements in 2004, the City selected trees and plant material to be installed. Now over twelve years
old, many of the trees have been removed due to failure and much of the plant material has been removed
due to pedestrian trampling, car doors damaging the plants, or simply dying off. Like all living things,
plants and trees have an expected life span. Many of the species originally installed are expected to live as
little as four to six years. Appropriate species selection is critical to prolong the aesthetic characteristics of
the plant or tree. Additionally, over the past several years the City has had reduced resources for funding
and maintaining replacement plants and trees.
With anticipated savings from several vacancies in the Parks Division, staff recommends utilizing some of
the excess funds to enhance the landscaped areas in Downtown. There are many vacant areas in the planters
that can be excavated and new material installed. The Parks Division has the capability to complete this
project utilizing in -house maintenance crews. Staff estimates the cost of 2,403 units of plants and tress to
be about $13,575. The staff costs associated with one Supervisor and a three -man crew to excavate and
install the material over the course of three weeks totals about $23,600, and would be absorbed into the
current staffing budget.
Additionally, there are 58 poles throughout Downtown that are designed for hanging flower baskets.
Having live flowers has created a maintenance routine that was too costly, time - consuming and
cumbersome to upkeep the flowers. With water restrictions in place the flowers and landscaping did not
survive. At one time the El Segundo Woman's Club donated time and materials to re -plant the hanging
baskets. Staff has explored the option of purchasing commercial grade silk flower arrangements. The
baskets cost about $200 each and last for several years without fading or degrading. Many commercial
centers and cities are installing artificial plant material to save water and reduce ongoing maintenance
requirements. Purchasing 116 baskets for about $27,000 is one way to maintain color and greenery along
the Downtown corridor using an economical approach.
It is anticipated that the Parks Division will have an overall savings of up to $140,000 in Parks Salaries due
to vacancies. With the abovementioned improvements, staff recommends transferring $40,575 from Parks
Salaries to Operating Supplies for the purchase of live and artificial plant material to immediately improve
the aesthetics of Downtown.
As a comparison, the City's current landscape maintenance contractor LandCare has submitted a proposal
for the purchase and installation of plant material along Main Street and Grand Avenue. The proposal totals
nearly $26,000 but includes just 918 units, compared to the over 2,400 that is recommended by direct
purchase for about half the cost. By completing the project in- house, the City's funds can be used more
effectively for a much larger amount of plant material. Additionally, the City's Park Supervisors are
talented and experienced in landscape and tree selection. Staff is confident that they can complete this
detail to help Downtown look great again. Recent landscape projects have included the Police Station and
Fire Station #1.
Once this project is complete, the Parks Division strives to properly maintain the planters with ongoing and
preventative maintenance as well as a replacement planting routine and corresponding budget. Over the
144
past several years the Parks Division staffing has been reduced while the areas of responsibility have
increased. The maintenance crews have had to adapt to reduced staffing levels which has inhibited their
ability to assign areas of accountability as they had in the past. Much of the daily work has become
reactionary versus being able to take proactive steps to maintaining the landscaped areas of parks and
public spaces before they get old, outdated or overgrown.
In 1985, the Parks Division was comprised on 15 full -time positions including one Superintendent, two
Supervisors, eight Park Maintenance Workers at Recreation Park, one Park Maintenance Worker at City
Hall, one Craftsworker, two Tree Maintenance Workers and additional part-time weekend and summer
employees. Currently, the Division has 11 full -time employees and 3 part-time employees. Additional areas
of responsibility over the past twenty years include: Downtown Streetscape, Holly Valley Park, Hillcrest
House, Dog Park, Clutters Park, Campus El Segundo, Camp Eucalyptus, Franklin and Richmond Parking
Lot, Main and Mariposa Parking Lot, Richmond Street, in addition to other duties such as special event set-
ups including Farmers Market weekly. Moreover, due to the nature of the job, it is not uncommon to have
one or more employees on restricted duty with various limitations.
During the preparations for the current fiscal year budget, the City Council approved the expenses related
to upgrading two part-time Park Maintenance Worker positions to full -time positions. These position
changes totaled $58,243 increase per year because the current part-time positions are budgeted to work 30-
hours per week and are subsequently receiving CalPERS benefits. The upgrade would provide the
maintenance crew an additional 20 hours per week of work that could be focused on maintaining newly
renovated landscaped areas. In comparison, if the routine maintenance of the Downtown planters were
contracted out, LandCare has provided a proposal totaling $57,540 annually. The advantages to keeping
this maintenance within City crews is that these employees could also be used on special detail projects,
special event support, and other park maintenance duties as needed.
In addition to landscape improvements, other streetscape improvements can be considered to help create a
cohesive and well- designed Downtown area. For instance, the poles currently designed for hanging flower
baskets can be refurbished and retrofitted for decorative pedestrian lighting. A preliminary price quote has
indicated a project for that purpose would cost $80,000 - $100,000. Matching site fixtures and furnishings
such as benches, bike racks, newsstands and the like could be purchased and installed. These types of
improvements would be considered a capital improvement project and subject to the capital project ranking
process and /or additional City Council discussion. Additionally, long -term design planning should be a
process in which the community is included, such as the business owners in Downtown, and a
comprehensive approach is developed and facilitated over the course of several months. Staff recommends
further developing the concept of a Downtown Streetscape Improvement Project to be discussed during the
strategic planning process when allocating funds for capital improvement projects for the upcoming fiscal
year.

PREPARED BY: Meredith Petit, Director of Recreation and Parks
REVIEWED BY: Barbara Voss, Economic Develo ment Manager
APPROVED BY: Greg Carpenter, City Manageri
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
From 1997 through 2015 the El Segundo Police Officers' Association ( ESPOA) sponsored the Main
Street Car Show in downtown El Segundo. This popular event is a favorite among El Segundo residents
and brings visitors from throughout the region to City's downtown district. In addition to classic and
specialty cars, the show features live music and vendors, and provides increased sales for the shops and
restaurants in the downtown area.
In 2016, the ESPOA announced that it would temporarily suspend hosting the car show. After the
announcement, the El Segundo Chamber of Commerce, along with the Automobile Driving Museum,
156 1
offered to step in to host the car show until the ESPOA resumes the role of hosting in future years, to
provide the community with continuity in upholding the annual car show tradition.
According to the City's Special Event Fee Waiver Policies, the ESPOA Main Street Car Show is
eligible to receive a 75% fee waiver on all city services and charges associated with supporting the event
(see Attachment 42 — Fee Waiver Scorecard). Fees include equipment rentals (show mobile, barricades,
etc.), banner permits, amplified sound permits, and related staff time. However, due to the unforeseen
circumstances in 2016, the Chamber requested a 100% fee waiver from the City Council and on May
17, 2016, the City Council voted and approved the 100% fee waiver request for the 2016 event on a
"one time basis ". The cost to the City to support the 2016 Car Show was $5,859.67.
The El Segundo Chamber of Commerce has announced that the 2017 Car Show will be organized in
partnership with ESPOA, and in a letter addressed to the City Manager have once again requested that
the City waive all fees associated with the event taking place on Saturday, August 29, 2017. It is
anticipated that the costs associated with the 2017 event will be similar to 2016, and are estimated at
$5,860.00. The event is already approved to receive a 75% fee waiver, approximately $4,395.00,
making the additional non - recovered costs for the City $1,465.00 should the request be granted.
According to the El Segundo Municipal Code 8 -8 -7, the City Council has the authority to waive fees for
non - profit organizations.
After reviewing the request, staff recommends upholding the original fee waiver of 75% due to the fact
that the 2016 fees were waived in their entirety on a one -time basis because the Police Officers
Association was unable to organize the event and subsequently the Chamber's goal in stepping in was to
provide continuity for the Downtown merchants and visitors. Now that the POA has renewed their
commitment to the event, the event should remain under the same judgment as prior years. The event is
a fundraiser and raises enough funds to cover the cost of the 25% City charges while still providing
funds to be used for other charitable purposes.

Dear Greg:
As you know, the El Segundo Police Officers' Association produced the much loved
Main Street Car Show in Downtown El Segundo for many years. Last summer, the
El Segundo Chamber stepped in and produced the Downtown El Segundo Car Show
when the ESPOA was unable to do so. We are happy to announce that the El Segundo
Chamber and the ESPOA will be working together this year to create the Main Street
Car Show during this exciting Centennial Year Celebration of El Segundo!
The Chamber and ESPOA will be joining together with the Automobile Driving Museum
in bringing the Main Street Car Show to our community on Saturday, August 19, 2017.
This event will bring hundreds of both residents and visitors to Downtown El Segundo
thus ensuring a robust day for our shops and restaurants as well as a wonderful day for
families and car show enthusiasts.
We respectfully request the City of El Segundo to support this important event for our
community thus waiving the fees for equipment (showmobile, barricades, etc), sound
permit/banner permit as well as staff time. We appreciate your consideration in joining
together with us to create another memorable experience for our community and a
successful day for our businesses.
Warm regards,

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
Through a Settlement Agreement between the Wiseburn Unified School District ( "Wiseburn") and
the City of El Segundo, the two parties have been collaborating on designing and constructing a
joint -use aquatics facility that will be located on Wiseburn property but operated and maintained 1 4
by the City. The City Council approved a facility design that includes a 53.2 -meter by 25 -meter
161
competition pool, a warm -up pool, spectator seating, locker rooms and restroom facilities, staff
offices, a mechanical building, parking lot, and sports lighting. The upgraded facility design was
in large part selected to enable the City to maximize its potential to generate revenue through a
wide variety of programming and special event rentals. The facility is currently under construction
and, according to the Settlement Agreement, must be completed on or before July 31, 2018.
To properly prepare for the facility opening, it is necessary to have full -time staff in place at least
six months prior to the facility opening to begin planning programs, booking events, and recruiting,
hiring and training staff. The full -time staff assigned to the aquatics program will also be assisting
the Recreation Superintendent in ordering necessary equipment and supplies, coordinating
registration processes, and setting up the City offices at the new facility. Additionally,
programming adjustments will be necessary at the Urho Saari Swim Stadium and will require
additional preparation than administering programs status quo. The recruitment period for a full -
time position will take approximately four months from posting to first day of work.
During the planning stages of this project the City consulted with Isaac Sports Group, LLC, to
conduct a Programming, Design, and Financial Analysis of various aquatics center options, in
which the findings and recommendations were presented to the City Council on February 3, 2015.
The financial projections for the selected design option and total aquatics program is summarized
below:

NET OPERATING INCOME (DEFICIT) $ (473,768) $ (39,695) $ (513,463)
It is important to note that the revenue projections for the new Aquatics Center and the entire
aquatics program including the Urho Saari Swim Stadium and outdoor pools were based upon
assumptions identified in the study and presentations, including increased fees for programs,
significant program expansion, and the implementation of creative programming that has never
been explored in El Segundo. For the projections to become realized, all components will have to
align. This endeavor is dependent upon experienced and dedicated recreation professionals.
More specifically, the personnel related costs estimated in the study are summarized as follows:
Maintenance /Public Works
Aquatics /Recreation

As the facility design and the expectations have continued to develop over the past two and a half
years, staff has continued analyzing program needs and related personnel requirements. Safety and
program success is of the utmost importance. To that end, staff recommends a comprehensive
personnel structure to manage the entire aquatics program, including all programs, maintenance,
supervision and administration of six swimming pools: two pools at the Urho Saari Swim Stadium,
Hilltop Outdoor Pool, Acacia Outdoor Pool and two pools at the new El Segundo Aquatics Center.
The recommended personnel structure dedicated solely to aquatics would include one full -time
Pool Maintenance Technician (under Public Works Department), one full -time Recreation
Supervisor (located at the Aquatics Center), and one full -time Recreation Coordinator (located at
the Urho Saari Swim Stadium). In addition, the aquatics facilities and programs will require a new
part-time job classification to be created, titled Pool Manager, to supervise daily operations at all
facilities. All facilities will continue to be staffed with appropriate Senior Lifeguards and
Lifeguards to enforce pool rules and provide emergency response to swimmers in distress. Lastly,
Recreation Leaders are required to function as cashiers to provide customer service functions such
as collecting entrance fees, admitting entry, processing program registrations, answering phone
calls and providing general information to the public.
While the 2015 study incorporated many of these job functions and personnel expenses, it was
also assumed that the existing positions within the Recreation Division may absorb some of the
full -time position functions. However, after further review, it is recommended that the Recreation
Supervisor and Recreation Coordinator positions be added positions to the Department's overall
organizational structure in order for the aquatics program to have dedicated staff assigned solely
to these facilities. The added positions will allow the Recreation Division to continue to administer
quality programs in other areas such as senior services, youth camps and programs, transportation,
teen center activities, sports programs and special events, as well as continue to enhance and add
programs to meet the needs of the community.
Additionally, the assumptions used in the study to estimate costs associated with the lifeguard
functions of the operations are lower than staff anticipates the actual need to be based on the
anticipated hours of operation, the variety of programming that will be occurring at the facility at
any given time, and the desired lifeguard staffing method to ensure the highest safety level is
achieved. The difference in budgetary implications from the preliminary estimates to current
recommendations are as follows:
Maintenance /Public Works

Recreation Coordinator (FT)- Aquatics*

If approved, staff intends to promptly begin the recruitment process for the Recreation Supervisor
position through a nation -wide recruitment effort through various professional aquatics
associations to ensure that we attract someone with prior experience in operating a multi- faceted
aquatics program, has established professional networks in the industry, and is truly dedicated to
safety and quality in aquatics operations. While the total annual personnel expenses for part-time
personnel related to the Aquatics Center is projected to be $645,225 per year, the fiscal impact for
Fiscal Year 17/18 would be projected at $161,306, or 25% of the annual budget, due to the
Aquatics Center anticipated opening on or around July 1, 2018. The full -time Recreation
Supervisor would be anticipated to start around the beginning of the fiscal year, while the
Recreation Coordinator would likely start in Spring 2018. Staff would budget these positions at
100% and 50% respectively for FYI 7/18.
