ORDINANCE 1571 ORDINANCE NO. 1571
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING VARIOUS SECTIONS OF THE EL
SEGUNDO MUNICIPAL CODE (ESMC) IN TITLE 15 TO
REDEFINE HOW BUILDING HEIGHT IS MEASURED, AND TO
ALLOW THE DIRECTOR TO APPROVE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE
ALLOWABLE BUILDING HEIGHT.
The City Council of the City of EI Segundo does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1: The City Council finds and declares as follows:
A. On October 9, 2017, staff initiated an application for Environmental
Assessment No. EA-1210 and Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA 17-08 to
amend the City's regulations affecting building height,
B. 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).
C, On June 28, 2018, 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;
D, On June 28, 2018, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 2840
recommending the City Council approve Environmental Assessment No.
EA-1210 and Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA 17-08;
E, On August 21, 2018, 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; and
F. The Ordinance and its findings are made based upon the administrative
record including, without limitation, testimony and evidence presented to the
City Council at its August 21, 2018, hearing, and the staff report submitted
by the Planning and Building Safety Department.
SECTION 2: General Plan Findings. As required under Government Code Section
65860, the ESMC amendments proposed by the Ordinance are consistent with the EI
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 facilitate the construction,
remodel, and expansion of residential land uses in the City;
B. The proposed amendments are also consistent with Land Use Element
Goal LU4, Objective LU4-1, Policy LU4-1.2, in that they will promote the
maintenance of commercial buildings to meet environmental regulations;
C. The proposed amendments are consistent with Land Use Element Goal
LU4, Objective LU4-2, and Policy LU4-2.1, in that they will help revitalize
and upgrade commercial areas in the City. The proposed amendments will
accomplish this by providing clarity concerning building height regulations;
D. The proposed amendments are consistent with Economic Development
Element Goal ED1, Objective ED1-1, and Policy ED1-1.1, in that it will help
to development and maintain businesses for its residents throughout the
City.
SECTION 3: 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 Title 15 because
it serves the public health, safety, and general welfare and provides the economic and
social advantages resulting from an orderly planned use of land resources.
SECTION 4: Environmental Assessment. This Ordinance is 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 minor revisions and clarifications
to existing zoning regulations related to building height. The proposed zone text
amendment is categorically exempt from further CEQA review under CEQA Guidelines §
15303 as a Class 3 (new construction or conversion of small structures), and § 15304 as
a Class 4 (minor alteration to land). Accordingly, the proposed Ordinance does not
constitute a "project" that requires environmental review in accordance with CEQA
Guidelines § 15061(b)(3), because the proposed zone text amendment establishes new
definitions and policies for measuring building height. The proposed Ordinance
constitutes an action that does not have the potential to cause significant effects on the
environment and is therefore exempt from the provisions of CEQA.
SECTION 5: The following definitions are amended or added to ESMC Section 15-1-6
(Title; Interpretation; Definitions: Definitions) as follows (c+rikethrn„nh is language to be
deleted, and underlined is language to be added):
BASEMENT: Any floor level below the first story in a building that is more than four feet
(4' 4 feet below "' ,ade° Grade for more than filly--per�:4. ) 50 percent of the total
perimeter, or is more than ej t(-8' 8 feet below "grade" at any point.
