("CEQA"), the State's CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15000 et. seq., the City's Local CEQA Guidelines, and Government Code Section 65962.5(f) (Hazardous Waste and Substances Statement), the City of Rancho Palos Verdes has prepared an Initial Study and determined that there is no substantial evidence that approval of the Zone Change would result in a significant adverse effect on the environment, and therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared and notice of the fact was given in the manner required by law; and, WHEREAS, after notice was issued pursuant to the requirements of the Rancho Palos Verdes Development Code, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on May 12, 2009, at which time all interested parties were given an opportunity to be heard and present evidence; and, WHEREAS, the Planning Commission approved P.C. Resolution No. 2009-20, recommending that the City Council certify a Negative Declaration pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, and P.C. Resolution No. 2009-21 recommending that the City Council approve a Zone Change for East Tract 16540 in the Portuguese Bend Club to establish one consistent zoning designation within Tract 16540; and, WHEREAS, after a notice was issued pursuant to the requirements of the Rancho Palos Verdes Development Code, the City Council opened up the public hearing on July 7, 2009, at which time all interested parties were given an opportunity to be heard and present evidence and subsequently continued the proposed "clean-up" Zone Change to August 4, 2009 to allow time for the Planning Commission to consider a Lot Line Adjustment (LLA) appeal that involves one of the 42 properties subject to the "clean-up" Zone Change; and, WHEREAS, on August 4, 2009, the City Council introduced Ordinance No. 496 for a "clean-up" Zone Change for East Tract 16540, Case No. ZON2009-00053 to be formally adopted via a second reading on August 18, 2009; and, WHEREAS, on August 18, 2009, Ordinance No. 496 was formally adopted by the City Council, to go into full force and effect on September 17, 2009; and, WHEREAS, due to insufficient posting of Ordinance No. 496, caused the need for adoption of this Urgency Ordinance; NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1: The City Council has reviewed and considered the amendments to the Rancho Palos Verdes Zoning Map for the East Tract 16540 "clean-up" Zone Change. Section 2: The City Council finds that the Zone Change for East Tract 16540 is consistent with California Government Code Section 65853, zoning amendment procedures. Section 3: The proposed Zone Change is warranted since it is consistent with the City's Local Coastal Specific Plan, which states, "...the 5 unit per acre density is in conformance with the existing pattern Hof development]and induces new units under a pattern which is compatible with the intimate character established by past development" (page S6-10, RPV Coastal Specific Plan). The change in zoning from RS-2 or dual residential zoning (RS-2 and RS-5) to RS-5 would be consistent with the exiting pattern of development, density and lot sizes found within East Tract 16540. Ordinance No. 496U Page 2 of 4 Section 4: For the foregoing reasons and based upon the information and findings included in the Staff Report, Initial Study and other records of these proceedings, the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby approves the Zone Change, thereby rezoning the residential zoning on the properties or portions of the properties from wholly RS-2 or dual zoned RS2 and RS-5 (Single Family Residential) to wholly RS-5 (Single-Family Residential) so that all of the residential portions of the properties within East Tract 16540 (except the property located at 1494 Maritime Road) shall be in one uniform residential RS-5 Zone, as set forth in Exhibit "A" (which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference). Section 5: The City Council finds that there is no substantial evidence that the Zone Change amendments to East Tract 16540 would result in new significant environmental effects. A Negative Declaration has been prepared and C.C. Resolution No. 2009- has been adopted, certifying the Negative Declaration and making certain environmental findings in association with Case No. ZON2009-00053. Section 6: The Rancho Palos Verdes Zoning Map is hereby by amended to change the residential zoning designations within East Tract 16540 to Single-Family Residential (RS-5)for the following properties only: 4156, 4150, 4144, 4136, 4126, 4124, 4112, 4110, 4104, and 4048 Palos Verdes Drive South; 4111, 4109, 4105, 4101, 4100, 4108, 4112 Sea Horse Lane; and 4187, 4188, 4184, 4181, 4178, 4174, 4173, 4171, 4170, 4164, 4161, 4158, 4157, 4151, 4150, 4147, 4144, 4130, 4125, 4118, 4115, 4110, 4105, and 4100 Maritime Road and as illustrated in Exhibit "A," which is attached to this Ordinance and incorporated herein by this reference. This Ordinance shall not amend the Open Space Hazard (OH) zoning designation on the following lots: 4164, 4158, 4150, 4144, 4130, 4118, 4110, and 4100 Maritime Road.

Individuals who wish to develop properties within Tract 16540 are waiting to file applications with the City. There is an urgent and immediate need to review and amend the City's Zoning Map. Section 8: The time within which judicial review of the decision reflected in this Ordinance must be sought is governed by Section 1094.6 of the California Code of Civil Procedure and other applicable short periods of limitation. Section 9: The City Clerk shall cause this Urgency Ordinance to be posted in three (3) public places in the City within fifteen (15) days after its passage, in accordance with the provisions of Section 36933 of the Government Code. The City Clerk shall further certify to the adoption and posting of this Ordinance, and shall cause this Ordinance and its certification, together with proof of posting, to be entered in the Book of Ordinances of the Council of this City.
